William Butler Yeats, poet, playwright, politician, and Nobel prize-winner for literature always looked west. Yeats & the West considers what the west meant to him, and what that means for us.
For W.B. Yeats the west of Ireland was foundational. Sligo was his family home, and Galway was where he brought his own family. Significant events of his life were played out there; collaborations that changed his work were formed there.
The west of Ireland was the wellspring of Yeats’s imagination. A landscape of islands, stones, and solitary trees was the landscape of his poetry. The culture of the west, its history, its traditions of craft, story, and song shaped his sense of a past worth reviving and a present worth honouring, and by doing so shaped modern Ireland.
This cultural revolution occurred under western eyes. Yeats & the West describes the many artistic collaborations that centred on Coole Park, Galway, and highlights the gifted artists of Yeats’s own family.
It is true that Yeats often looked eastwards for philosophy, for religion, and all the arts in their service. But he turned west when grounding them. Yeats’s restoration of Thoor Ballylee, Galway, must be seen alongside the construction of his own poetry.
In fact Yeats’s most distant travels were to North America. Yeats & the West follows him and the Abbey players as they cross the Atlantic and bring back with them a renewed idea of the breadth of the western world.
Through images, words, film, and sound, using rare material from the NUI Galway’s collections and from around the world, Yeats & the West tells anew an old story: a story of going west to find those places, real and imaginative, that change our sense of where and who we are.

“Is that the guy from the Policy Institute?” House Speaker Michael Madigan asked his press secretary after an Illinois News Network reporter recently tried to ask Madigan a question at the Statehouse.
The Illinois Policy Institute transferred ownership of the network to the Franklin Center for Government and Public Integrity back in January. But they all share the same street address. “Same difference,” Madigan’s press secretary said in response to his boss’ question.
“When are you guys gonna fold your tent?” Madigan asked the reporter.
It’s true that the Policy Institute is currently in a very weak spot. Before Bruce Rauner ran for office, the institute was the go-to source for fiscally conservative talking points. Rauner was a dream candidate for an advocacy group that bills itself as a think tank.
The anti-union tax-hater was a perfect fiscal and ideological match for them. The Institute backed him throughout the long governmental impasse and helped gin up rabid opposition to an income tax hike and then unleashed a furious response against the legislative Republicans who crossed Rauner and voted for that tax increase.
But then the group helped engineer Rauner’s staff purge in July of 2017 and everything went downhill from there.
Rauner abruptly fired all of his loyal top staff without helping them find other employment, which is just not done in this business. He fired the people who knew where all the bones were buried. And, man, were they ever hungry for revenge.
The former Rauner staffers who’d been with him since the 2014 campaign were replaced in large part by Illinois Policy Institute staffers and other people of that ilk. Those folks proved to be a disaster and almost all were forced out.
Rauner not only hurt his own “brand” by associating his government with the institute, but the institute hurt its brand by associating itself so closely with an unpopular governor.
And then Rauner got thumped like a drum in the November election, scoring just 39 points while losing by 15. Rauner is soon to be gone, but can the Illinois Policy Institute come back?
Throughout the campaign, Democrat JB Pritzker brushed aside questions about “reforming” the state’s pension systems, a major priority for the Illinois Policy Institute. Pritzker flatly refused to entertain any ideas for lowering pension payments to current government workers and retirees, saying a pension is a promise and he intended to keep that promise. He’s on the opposite side of the institute. The same goes for his support for union rights and increasing the minimum wage.
But right at the very top of the Illinois Policy Institute’s priority list is an issue that was also one of Rauner’s most important missions as governor: Stop a graduated income tax. The group is funded, after all, by people like Rauner. They want to keep as much of their piles of money as they possibly can and they hate giving it to the government.
Pritzker openly campaigned for a progressive income tax. He can be seen as the Illinois Policy Institute’s ultimate nightmare: A wealthy liberal Democrat with massive legislative super-majorities.
There’s another way of looking at this, however. Pritzker could also be seen as the institute’s dream. They no longer have to defend a badly flawed governor and eventually the richest Illinoisans will be energized when Pritzker begins to move his agenda through the legislature, particularly the graduated income tax. The Illinois Policy Institute will be a ready-made receptacle for their mad money.
The unions didn’t go away when Rauner won, after all. They strengthened their political hand more than ever before because they had such a “perfect” ideological foil.
So, instead of folding their tent, Rauner’s loss just might be Tillman’s gain.

The recruitment industry is one of the leading industries in the UK with consistent growth since 2010. The number of recruitment businesses has an average year on year growth of 21% and the industry as a whole is worth over £35 billion.
However, receiving payment for their services seems to be an ongoing problem for many recruitment agencies.
We work with many Recruitment companies throughout the UK, helping them to recover their outstanding invoices. One of our recent collections was on behalf of an SME owner who was owed more than £12,000 from a client who refused to make payment for the ‘finders fee’ after they offered full time contracts to several employees they had originally hired on a temporary basis. The owner was initially hesitant about involving a third party to help recover his money as he did not want to ruin the relationship he had with his client. Nonetheless, with limited cash flow and the pressure of paying overhead costs, they had little choice and made the call. Upon instructing DCBL the owner expressed the importance of maintaining a relationship with the debtor. We were able to adapt our recovery methods to achieve this and within a matter of weeks we recouped the balance in full without damaging their working relationship.
An employee hired on a temporary basis, is given a permanent position. Some employers do not foresee the fee from the recruitment agency or have not read the terms in depth.
The employer hires the applicant for a position within their company that is different to the one the CV was initially intended for.
The applicant leaves their position within the company while still in the rebate period, however the employer has violated the terms and conditions, invalidating their right to replace the applicant.
During all of the above situations, if the debtor refuses to pay the recruitment agency this can have serious consequences on their company as a whole, particularly smaller agencies who will struggle with their cash flow being held up.
If you are struggling to recover the money you are rightfully owed from clients who are refusing to pay. Contact us today for a free consultation. Our client portfolio ranges from Blue chip companies to Sole traders to Private individuals so whatever the size of your business, we can help.

The Zabalaza Anarchist Communist Front (ZACF) recognises that the crisis in Zimbabwe, ongoing xenophobic attacks and rising food prices are of great importance to the working class, both in South Africa and internationally. Resolving these crises in favour of the poor and working poor will require mass direct action and solidarity.
We stand by the right of Zimbabwean people to be free from violent repression, intimidation, arbitrary arrests, torture and murder by state forces and others allied to the despotic Mugabe regime.
We support the right of all people to be free from hunger, malnutrition and easily preventable sickness caused lack of healthy food.
We support people’s right to freedom of movement under any circumstances, especially when seeking a better future for themselves and their families when the political and economic conditions in their places of origin to do not allow for their wellbeing.
We support the right of people to satisfy their basic needs, such as electricity, housing and other basic services.
In line with this, we support the demands made by Cosatu for actions to be taken to protect the poorest layers of society from the effects of rising food prices, by raising social grants and minimum wages. We support the demand for basic foods to be VAT zero-rated, for land reform to be accelerated, for more land to be made available for food production.
We agree with Cosatu that poor and working class South Africans and immigrants have a common interest in struggling together to improve their living conditions.
Our aim is for this common interest to grow into a common struggle to improve conditions and to resist all forms of oppression.
We call on working class and poor South Africans to build alliances and structures of support with immigrants living in poor communities in South Africa.
We call on all the organisations of the working class to make a sincere effort to involve immigrants in their struggles and, similarly, to support the day to day struggles of these immigrants in all their forms.
Alexandra, a hotbed of working class resistance to oppression for decades, has been racked and divided by xenophobic riots. Some among the South African working class are turning their anger against immigrants instead of the true enemy, the capitalists. This is a tragedy, not only for our immigrant brothers and sisters, but for the South African working class. A working class divided will win nothing but more oppression and exploitation. A working class united will never be defeated.
In Alexandra, the workers and the poor, both South African and immigrant, faces a crisis of housing. A battle between South Africans and immigrants over who gets the houses will only prolong the crisis. To win housing, water and electricity, the class must unite.
Working class organisations in Alexandra and elsewhere are fighting for housing and services. Immigrants and South Africans should join in these struggles. We call on the militant organisations of the South African working class to bring immigrants into their movements, to establish joint committees, to learn together the nature of the common oppression binding all workers, and to build and grow common struggles against this oppression.
In the face of hate-filled, mindless xenophobic attacks, immigrants have sought the protection of the police. We understand and respect this move. When our lives are threatened, we go where we can.
But the police are no friends of immigrants. Again and again they have shown their xenophobia. This is the force of repression that randomly picks people up off the street because their skins are darker than the average in South Africa, checking for ID books and papers as they checked for passes under the old regime. This is the force of repression that intimidates workers into passing over their hard-earned wages in bribes if they cannot prove they have the right to be in this country. This is the force of repression that throws workers into the squalor of the Lindela concentration camp for months of imprisonment until they are deported to their countries of origin, to poverty, to starvation, and in some of these countries – including Zimbabwe – to repression, torture and murder.
The police may show mercy today. But immigrants who seek police protection today may be arrested tomorrow – or next week, or in two months – by the very same police who offered to protect them today.
Today they may have no option. Xenophobic terror is terrible indeed. When Zimbabwean immigrants go so far as to ask to be repatriated to the country they fled, a country now plunging deeper than ever into economic ruin and tyrannical repression, they show the true terror of xenophobia – terror that, in the end, hits all the workers and all the poor.
In the face of such terror, we should do better than relying on our enemies. The robber capitalists and their armed wing, the state and its police, are our enemies. The friends of the workers are the workers. The friends of the immigrant workers should be the South African workers. We call on all workers and poor people to unite in daily struggle. And, while xenophobic attacks may continue, we hope the time will come when South African and immigrant workers will join in defence against these attacks.
The dockworkers of Durban, members of the South African Transport and Allied Workers’ Union, members of Cosatu, have shown the way. Just last month, the Mugabe regime sought to import a shipment of weapons from China to slaughter those who resisted tyranny. This shipload was to be unloaded in Durban, and carried by truck through South Africa to the butcher of Harare.
The dockworkers of Durban declared that they would not unload this shipment. They were joined by transport workers throughout the world. The weapons were returned to China.
More weapons may follow. All workers in South Africa, whether South African, Zimbabwean, whatever may be their nationality, should be prepared to stop these weapons, to defend the workers and the poor of Zimbabwe against the tyrant.
Workers and poor people can unite in the struggle for housing, for water, for electricity, against repression, against dictators.
And workers and poor people can unite in the struggle for food.
The insane increase in food prices is a global crisis, and is meeting with global resistance. Throughout the world, workers, peasants and the poor face starvation as World Bank structural adjustment programmes, trade agreements prepared by and for the capitalists, oil profiteering, biofuel programmes that seek to evade the energy crisis by burning food, and price fixing so plainly criminal that even the South African state has felt obliged to fine food company Tiger Brands nearly R100 million (a mere 4.5 percent of these robbers’ 2007 profit of R2.24 billion, bringing no relief in the price of bread), are united in a single onslaught of plunder and starvation.
But the people are fighting back. Workers and the poor have rioted from Egypt to Mozambique, from Haiti to the Philippines. In Haiti and in Cameroon, these actions have forced the state to cap food prices.
The ZACF supports Cosatu’s demands to defend workers and the poor against food inflation. And we go further. We declare that by taking to the streets, the working class can win a price cap on all basic food.
In struggle the workers can unite. In struggle the workers of the world can defeat the capitalist plunderers who would starve us all to death if they could make a profit from it. In struggle the workers can reach beyond small differences of nationality, can topple the tyrant Mugabe as we toppled the tyrants of the apartheid regime, can build a world where neither boundary fence, nor plundering mielie merchant, nor policeman of hatred, will deprive us of our needs and hold us in terror.
The ZACF calls on Cosatu, on the community social movements, on all the organisations of the working class, across all borders, to join in direct action against every oppressor.

A Flemish sand boarder that was seriously injured in an accident in Peru has died of her injuries. The woman’s death is reported in the Peruvian newspaper ‘El Popular’. The paper says that she passed away on Thursday.
The accident happened in the Peruvian desert village of Huacachina. The Belgian woman was sandboarding on a steep dune and was unable to stop quickly enough to stop herself colliding with the wall of a hotel. She sustained several fractures.
On Thursday she died of a respiratory condition in hospital in the city of San Pablo where she had been taken after having received treatment in a hospital at Ica. The woman’s father told the paper that his daughter and three friends were on a sandboarding holiday organised by the company Desert Night. He added that the organisers had not adhered to minimal safety rules.
Huacachina is a small village in the Peruvian desert that is popular with tourist on adventure holidays.

UUP has long advocated for paid family leave at SUNY, so union members were glad to add their voices to a Moral Mondays vigil in the Capitol to help extend that right to workers throughout the state.
Vice President for Academics Jamie Dangler, Secretary Eileen Landy and members from the Oneonta and Albany chapters joined with dozens of other supporters May 18 to push for a bill that would provide 12 weeks of paid family leave to workers after the birth or adoption of a child, or to care for a seriously ill loved one. Advocates gathered in the second floor War Room of the Capitol to pray, sing and share stories of how family leave helped them after the birth of a child, or during a parent's illness.
The bill is before both houses, and advocates recently spent a day meeting with lawmakers asking for their support in moving the bill before the session ends. The Labor-Religion Coalition of New York State, Citizen Action and the Albany County Federation of Labor were among the groups that joined UUP and NYSUT at the vigil.
UUP, which has supported paid family leave for years, has kept the push for paid family leave at SUNY at the forefront of their concerns, Dangler said.
Bill Simons, president of the Oneonta UUP chapter, called families “the greatest investment this country can make.” He and Rob Compton, Oneonta’s vice president for academics, noted that paid family leave would increase productivity, by not forcing employees to fit care giving for a sick family member around their full-time work responsibilities.
The United States is one of the few industrialized nations that does not provide paid family leave. The federal Family and Medical Leave Act protects a worker’s job during a leave for specified family and medical reasons, but does not require employers to pay employees during the leave.

Ok so as a "bigger" plus size girl asos is pretty much my go too store to shop at online or on the high street. Summers here and I am so ready to get a few cute dresses to wear out. here are four of my favourites I've got my eyes on.
Ok so the first dress is this super cute navy tie strap sundress that's so basic and simple I could pretty much put it with anything plus I love to be able to tie my shoulder straps because I can make them fit perfectly.
If you haven't fallen in love with this dress already just by looking at it then you must be crazy!! how cute is it??!! it is defiantly something I'd wear to a fancy party, but its also something id feel like a princess in, plus isn't lace everything these days?
So the smock dresses I'm not to sure about simply because I'm a bigger size, and not to say bigger girls don't slay smock dresses because its defiantly something I could see Callie Thorpe wear and pull off well but for me I worry about getting my legs out and the dress going to high because its not very fitted.
So thins one isn't really a dress but how cute is that skirt? with a shirt tucked in like that it defiantly looks like a dress and damn if I can wear it like this girl then ill be one happy girl! its out of stock at the moment but hopefully when it comes back in!
Who else shops at asos? What are you loving recently?

I grew up with Cicely Mary Barker's beloved flower fairy books on my shelf. I loved looking at all the details in her paintings and would imagine living right there beside those sweet forest folk. When I set out to paint an altar dedicated to the world of imagination, her work was what came to mind first. My 'Wonder' towel was inspired by her Poppy Fairy – partly because poppies are my favorite flower, and partly because I so wanted to do a print in a cheerful poppy red color for Spring. My fairy's wings are hidden in my painting – a nod to Kira in The Dark Crystal, who didn't reveal her gorgeous gossamer wings until exactly the right moment.
Wonder is available now in my shop as cotton towels in both dusty mauve pink & poppy red.

After concluding his degree studies in mathematics, Jacques Bair joined François Jongmans at the University of Liège, where he defended a doctorate devoted to convex geometry, and continued his education in taking the higher education certificate.
From 1977 he for eleven years taught industrial engineering students at the Huy ISIa. It was only in 1988 that he came back to the University of Liège, to take up Professor François Jongmans’ post.
In the years which followed he in particular took a very close interest in modelling economic phenomena, which he taught to business management students, before devoting his time more to didactics and rendering mathematics accessible to a wider public. He is today a member of the editorial committee of the French magazine, Tangente, which had noticed him following the writing of an article on the modelling of Justine Henin’s tennis services.

Is Nima Arkani Hamed the next Albert Einstein?
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Nima Arkani Hamed has made a name for himself in the field of particle physics. His revolutionary theories about the functioning of the universe will finally be put to the test later this year.
If proven correct, it will be the first new additions to particle physics theory since Albert Einstein revolutionized the field.
Indeed, the biggest particle accelerator is being built in Switzerland and its cost is estimated between 5 and 10 billion dollars. Arkani is waiting to see if his brilliant mind will be at the forefront of this scientific revolution, the Ground Report website reported.
Former Harvard professor, he was recruited by Princeton to work at the Institute of Advanced Studies where Einstein worked from 1935 to 1955.
Particles have a complex behavior and carry such energy that it is, for example, very hard to pinpoint a particle’s speed and position at the same time.
Recently, a theory called the superstring theory has attempted to explain that particles are not the smallest form in the world but rather small vibrating loops called strings. These strings vibrate in 11 dimensions as opposed to you and I, who only see three and one for time. Most models suggest at least 7 other dimensions that we, as humans, cannot perceive.
Arkani with physicists Dimopoulos, and Dvali have proposed that some of these dimensions are larger than assumed, this is called the ADD model (Arkani-Dimopoulos-Dvali). Unfortunately these dimensions are unobservable because gravity is the only force that can circle them.
Arkani and others are confident that the Hadron Collider will be able to help in answering those theories.

In August 2014, Google announced that HTTPS sites would receive a small boost in their rankings within Google Search. According to MOZ, at the time, less than 10% of websites that were ranking on page 1 were HTTPS websites.
Since then, Google has been hard at work ensuring that migrating to HTTPS is a no-brainer and its efforts are definitely paying off.
As shown in the graphic above, Google’s transparency reports now indicate more than 70% of browsing time is spent on HTTPS websites. So, it begs the question. Why did so many sites decide to migrate? The list of sites that migrated include many large and complex websites like Wikipedia in the case of which migration is especially difficult and a risky business proposition.
By migrating to HTTPS, one can improve the security of the web and slightly boost their search rankings. However, the largest motivation for site owners are the user experience changes rolling out since January 2017 on the world’s most popular browser, Google Chrome.
Some non-HTTPS pages, such as those that have forms for passwords and credit card numbers are now labelled as “Not Secure”. The screenshot to the left illustrates the label that is currently being shown to warn users against providing sensitive information on HTTP pages.
In addition to protecting users from providing their information over insecure connections, Google Chrome also provides positive reinforcement on all secure HTTPS sites by labeling them as “Secure” as can be seen in the screen shot to the right.
Such labeling is expected to create a significant change in users’ behavior towards both HTTP sites and HTTPS sites. For this reason, I have been recommending even small business owners and bloggers migrate to HTTPS and am creating several resources for non-technical site owners to migrate from HTTP to HTTPS.
While you may be convinced about migrating your site to HTTPS, it is easier said than done.
Properly migrating a site from HTTP to HTTPS can be challenging even for an experienced web developer and the effort required is often underestimated. For the simplest of sites, the migration involves installation of an SSL Certificate and effectively a domain name change. Most sites owners will need to take additional steps to properly migrate their sites and may need to resolve issues after the migration.
Errors such as the mixed content error are particularly common, yet, may impact only select pages on your site and go unnoticed. Other common issues include loss of social media share counts and malfunction of third party plugins.
While Google provides resources to help web developers migrate sites to HTTPS and resolve the issues that may arise, it is still difficult for less technical site owners to understand and implement Google’s recommendations. Further, there is a risk of losing complete access to the site. For example, simply by using certain plugins like the Really Simple SSL Plugin without having a valid SSL certificate can cause you to lose access to your site. Therefore, I do not recommend attempting to migrate to HTTPS without a trustworthy guide.
Recognizing the challenges faced by bloggers, online entrepreneurs and small business owners, I provide a solution for site owners of all technical levels to migrate their sites.
On one hand, do it yourselfers can follow the free video series on Bloggercasts.com to migrate their WordPress sites. On the other extreme, those unwilling to invest the time or having a more complex site can hire me to handle the entire migration. To explore both options, you can visit https://bloggercasts.com/migrate-to-https.
Nikhil Agarwal is the founder of Bloggercasts.com. Nikhil creates video courses and other resources to help bloggers and online entrepreneurs grow their business. He is putting together a library of resources to help site owners migrate to HTTPS at https://bloggercasts.com/migrate-to-https.
Your opinion on this matter is valid. Since the last time I moved to https, my Google ranking increased and the worth of my blog also shut up.
I wish other bloggers will see the great and mighty benefits and move theirs too.

At a meeting of the World Vaishnava Association at the Gopinath Gaudiya Math in Gopishwar Mahadeva, Om Prakash Brajvasi said that all the branches of the Gaudiya Math are the result of Prabhupada Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati’s preaching, but that his contribution was yet to be fully recognized by the wider public.
Bhakti Aloka Paramadwaiti Maharaj said that there are more than 100 ashrams and maths in the Braj area that are connected to the Gaudiya Saraswata family. “We could be a powerful force and get a lot of things done if we were able to work together,” he said. He listed a number of tasks related to the environment and the Yamuna River in which the World Vaishnava Association could play an important role. “But we are addicted to acting separately,” he said.
Bhakti Swarup Sannyasi Maharaj of the Gaudiya Mission said that he wanted to build a “Prabhupada Museum” in Kolkata for precisely that purpose. It was noted that in Kolkata, the ghats on the Hooghly River near the Bagh Bazaar Math are named after people like Lokanath Brahmachari, who may or may not ever have come there, but that a saint with the international influence of Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Prabhupada remains unrecognized.
Mahavir Swami suggested why not a Chaitanya Museum here in Vrindavan, and he offered to give 400 square yards of land near Govinda Kund for that purpose.
It was also proposed that a fortnightly publication called Prabhupada Vani should be started for disseminating the news of all the branches of the Gaudiya Math and missions worldwide. Mahavir Swami agreed to take responsibility for the publication and asked that all the maths provide materials to be published.
The thorny problem of the annual procession at the time of Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati’s appearance day was tackled with little resolution. Last year another association of Gaudiya Math Vaishnavas held a procession on that occasion with the stipulation that only Srila Prabhupada Siddhanta Saraswati’s picture was to be allowed. When some participants came with other pictures and banners, they were torn by zealous defenders of the rule. This led to heated exchanges and bad feelings.

(SAN DIEGO, CA, 12/7/18) – On Monday, December 10, representatives of chapters of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, will join hundreds of other faith leaders from around the nation at a solidarity action for asylum seekers at the U.S.-Mexico border in San Diego as part of the “Love Knows No Borders: A Moral Call for Migrant Justice” mobilization, organized by the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC).
American Muslim leaders from across the nation -- including Sheikh Omar Suleiman, Imam Suhaib Webb, Ramon Mejia, and Yasmine Taeb -- will also take part in the solidarity event.
The event is one of many across the nation, organized by AFSC, in solidarity with immigrants in this country and crossing the border.
Between December 10 and December 18, dozens of solidarity actions will take place nationwide. Participants of this national mobilization are calling on the United States government to end the detention and deportation of immigrants, respect the human right to migrate, and end border militarization.
I think that we should take up a collection to pay the fare to fly all of the immigrants to all the Arabic countries around the world since it is Arabs who believe in Migrant Justice. Let them show us that that is truly what they believe. We are willing to give them that chance. The ball is now in their court.
No one has any rights under the Constitution who isn’t a legal citizen. Americans should not be forced to pay taxes to help those who have never paid into the system. And don’t tell me that doesn’t happen!

In addition to EN 13795 careful compliance, how can a laminate manufacturer bring added value and further contribution to keep bacteria and microbes under control in order to reduce the risk of healthcare-related infections and to improve protection from patient to staff?
It is well known since the early 20th century that Silver is a powerful antibacterial metal ion; EXTEN SA decided to invest in the research and improvement of its cast co-extruded polyolefinic film for the production of medical laminates, applying the use of an innovative formulation, based on Silver Ions, combined with an exclusive co-extrusion technology.
Based on ISO 20743 2007 (Part 2:transfer method) EXTEN SA determined the effectiveness of its Antibacterial Antistatic Multilayer Co-extruded Cast Embossed Polyolefinic film.
It is clear that EXTEN antibacterial film inhibits bacteria cells division and interrupt cell energy generation in order to inhibit transport functions in the bacteria cell wall. Silver ions provide new ionised Silver molecules with a consequent permanent antibacterial effectiveness. Silver gives plenty of advantages while fighting against methicillin- or multidrug- resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) that has developed resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics which include the peniccillins and the cephalosporins. MRSA is especially troublesome in hospitals where patients with open wounds, invasive devices and weakened immune systems are to greater risk of HCAI.
EXTEN SA product EMFR-AM is a pragmatic contribution to a more intensive and aggressive response to uphold the EN 13795 standard and keep bacteria under a more effective control.
We believe that safety comes first and we believe that supporting EN 13795 we support our safety, because actions are needed not just words.

In its most recent annual count, the Regional Task Force on the Homeless found an estimated 8,576 homeless people living in San Diego County. That’s the fourth largest homeless population in the nation. Of those, less than half (3,586) were in emergency shelters or transitional housing; almost 5,000 were living in cars, tents or wherever they could lay themselves down.
There is no silver bullet or comprehensive solution to eradicate homelessness. Anyone who tells you otherwise is simply not being honest. There are many underlying conditions contributing to homelessness that make it a complex issue – mental health, drugs and alcohol, and a lack of services for parolees, to name a few.
Any strategy that addresses the root causes can help prevent people from experiencing homelessness, and prevention is a critical part of the solution. To that end I have co-written two bills in the Legislature with Sen. Jim Beall that aim to get mental health treatment for people coming into contact with law enforcement or leaving incarceration, to make sure these individuals are supported and don’t end up on our streets, disconnected from services to keep them and the public safe.
Senate Bill 215 would create a new court-ordered, pre-trial diversion program for lower-level crimes when the defendant suffers from a mental disorder that played a role in the commission of the crime and the prosecutor and judge agree that the defendant could benefit from mental health treatment. (Most DUIs would not be eligible.) The defense would be required to arrange treatment satisfactory to the court, the treatment program could last up to two years and regular status reports on the defendant’s progress would be mandatory.
This program would provide people with mental illness the treatment they need instead of warehousing them in jail. Jails are not therapeutic places, nor are they designed to be and it’s unfair to our public safety officers to expect them to double as crisis mental health professionals. SB 215 would provide a tool for the courts to use when treatment is recognized as the best option for both public safety and the defendant. SB 215 will in part help get those mentally ill people living on the streets who come into contact with law enforcement over lesser crimes receive the treatment they desperately need.
Senate Bill 1010  would create a pilot program between the state Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and participating counties to provide supportive housing to parolees with mental health needs. Of course there will always be mentally ill offenders who in the interest of public safety are sentenced to prison but ultimately will be released one day. As the person transitions off parole, under this bill participating counties would provide community-based mental health treatment and rental assistance and services using Mental Health Services Act funds.
Parolees in general have difficulty finding a home, and mentally ill parolees have even greater difficulty. Numerous studies have found that homeless parolees are far more likely to reoffend than those who have a home. SB 1010 aims to break that cycle by providing parolees experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness the mental health support and stable environment they need to successfully re-enter society and not reoffend.
Most prisoners serve their time and are ultimately released from prison. It makes sense to invest in programs like transitional housing that will provide them stability as they re-enter society. Helping parolees return to being contributing members of the community lowers the likelihood that they will end up homeless or reoffend.
Our jails and prisons have become de facto mental health facilities, a fact that serves no one well. The homeless who are mentally ill are a danger to themselves and others, and we should focus on getting them help instead of locking them up. We need to give law enforcement and the courts the appropriate tools to do what’s in the best interest of public safety. We also need to provide sustained behavioral and mental health treatment and stable housing that’s tied with safety net services.
Homelessness is a huge problem affecting our community and our local economy – it’s one of the issues I hear about most from my constituents. There are many efforts underway at every level of government and nonprofit agencies across the county to tackle the problem, and these two bills are a piece of that puzzle.
— Joel Anderson is a state senator representing District 38.
Your recommended solutions focus on incarceration or post incarceration where currently many services exist. What are your solutions to prevent the mentally ill from falling into the criminal justice system in the first place? Stop criminalizing homelessness and the mentally ill.

2002-11-15 04:00:00 PDT Hollywood -- Faced with a boycott threat that could have seriously damaged the organization, the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences approved a new eight- year deal with the four major networks Wednesday night that will allow those broadcasters to continue carrying the Emmy Awards -- rejecting a more lucrative bid from pay-TV service Home Box Office.
Industry sources say that ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox agreed to a deal worth $52 million, in which they will take turns televising the Emmys through 2010, as they have since 1994.
Under the agreement, the networks will pay $5.5 million a year during the first four years, sources said, escalating to $7.5 million in the fifth year.
That represents a sizable increase over the $3 million the networks had been paying, but considerably less than the $10 million bid by HBO, which had met the academy's asking price.
CBS Television President Leslie Moonves presented the four networks' counterproposal to the academy's executive committee Wednesday.
With the networks threatening to withdraw all support from the Emmys -- and perhaps start a competing awards show -- if the nonprofit organization opted for the exclusive HBO arrangement, insiders said the academy was happy to maintain the status quo while still securing a sizable raise.
Academy President Todd Leavitt said the contract, ratified by the group's board of governors at the academy in North Hollywood, was "in the best interests of the industry."
HBO's bid, revealed Monday, stunned executives at ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox. The academy has for years maintained that the networks reap millions in profit from the Emmys and that the organization should get a larger share of that pie.
The Emmys are a special case, however, in that they rely on the networks' participation and good will. For that reason, flirting with a single-network deal has always been risky for the academy, leading to retaliation from the left-out broadcasters that some felt could significantly undermine the organization's future.

Buying any drugs in the United States is quite expensive. The reason behind it isn’t the exceptional quality. People around the world use the same drugs but buy them at significantly lower prices. The high cost of any treatment in the USA is caused by the necessity of visits to a doctor every time you need even a safe medicine while in other countries the same or similar medicines are sold without a prescription. Additionally, the companies who entered the U.S. market had to spend millions of dollars in order to register their drugs there and then promote them. The medicines sold in other countries do not have well-known brand names, they are not available in your country but have absolutely the same composition and effect as those brand drugs prescribed by your local doctors.
How to save buying drugs from other country?
Fortunately, today if you want to save on the treatment you don’t need to go to another country to buy cheaper analogs of the brand drugs there. You can buy generic medicines from online pharmacies. If you choose the right pharmacy, you can even benefit from the free medicines delivery.
Worth noting, you need to be prepared to buy generic medicines. They are absolutely identical to the brand drugs but were allowed to be manufactured only after the exclusive patent of the inventor had expired. In order to choose the right drug, make sure to check the active substance of the brand drug you need. Generics have the same active substances but absolutely different registered names. You can either look for the drug using its brand name and adding the word “generic” before it or search medicines based on the active substance which is more convenient because on the website of the online pharmacy you chose there can be indicated not all brand names of the drug you are looking for.
Generic medicines sold at online pharmacies comply with all of the world health standards and are promoted by the World Health Organization as the equally effective alternative to the brand drugs more accessible to all people regardless of income.
How to find the best online pharmacy?
4rx online store is an online pharmacy with a well-established reputation that has been on the market for a long time already. Reliable online drugstores value their reputation and do not sell inferior drugs, expired drugs or placebo. Do not be fooled by extremely low prices offered by some online drugstores. Of course, you want to save as much as possible on the treatment but you need also an effective treatment. Therefore, you need to settle for the average price offered by a trustworthy seller with multiple positive reviews of customers from all around the world rather than the lowest price set by a questionable seller.
- Best quality generic medicines.
- Prescription medicines without a prescription. Our pharmacist will give you a comprehensive consultation and release the drug you need without any proof that you have visited a doctor. In our country, those drugs that in the USA are prescription-only medicines are allowed to be sold without a prescription legally.
- Average-to-lowest prices for generic drugs.
- Free delivery for big orders.
- Privacy. The shipment description is left blank, so if you don’t want anyone to know what kind of pills you receive, nobody will find it out.
- Besides medicines, you can buy here other health related products.
- English-speaking customer support managers.
Before buying any medicine from the online drugstore, make sure to check the instruction and see if the drug is not contraindicated to you; check the dosage per pill recommended for your age and condition, and then buy namely that dosage.

Xu Chunzhong (1938), born in Shanghai, was sent to the countryside during the "up to the mountains and down to the villages" campaign. There he was commisioned to illustrate, as a so-called amateur artist, the heroic death of Jin Xunhua. Xu was assisted by Chen Yifei, a professional artist. The image they produced was widely published, also as a poster, and acquired national fame.
In the 1990s, Xu went to the USA, where he taught at the University of California, Los Angeles. He produced series of large oil paintings on the role of Chinese Americans in American history and on "70 glorious moments in Chinese history". In 2001 Xu made three paintings on the attack on the World Trade Center, depicting the heroic firefighters and policemen. He donated these paintings to the American government, and they were reproduced on posters and postcards.

How Much Money Would Brown Tax Produce?
Those who think that tax increases alone can fix California's budget problems should think again.
Yes, the state needs new revenues.
But the state's budget and tax systems are too broken -- and too volatile -- for anyone to have confidence in estimates of the revenues that new taxes might produce.
This uncertainty isn't much talked about, but it should be considered in every single one of the tax measures on the ballot. You don't know how much in revenues anything will produce.
The Legislative Analyst's Office, the non-partisan body, took a hard look at Gov. Jerry Brown's initiative to raise, temporarily, sales taxes and income taxes on those who make $250,000 or more.
But the LAO's estimate of how much this tax increase would produce in taxes is, at $4.8 billion, more than $2 billion less than Gov. Brown's estimate of $6.9 billion.
This discrepancy isn't a product of any wishful thinking on the governor's part. It's the nature of the volatile budget and tax system.
The volatility described above makes it difficult to forecast this measure’s state revenue gains from high-income taxpayers. As a result, the estimates from our two offices of this measure’s annual revenue increases vary. Between 2013‑14 and 2015‑16 (the three years in which both the PIT and SUT increases would be in effect for the entire fiscal year), the LAO currently forecasts an average annual increase in state revenues of $5.5 billion, and [Governor Brown's Department of Finance] DOF currently forecasts an average annual increase in state revenues of $6.9 billion. For the 2012‑13 budget, the LAO forecasts this measure would generate $4.8 billion of additional revenues, and DOF forecasts $6.9 billion of additional revenues.
Those are big differences. And another reminder that fixing the budget isn't merely a matter of raising taxes or cutting spending.

So you don't have the Janome convertible foot set? You can still use a darning foot. You can even make it better! Leah Day has another great post on how to break your foot. Your standard darning foot that is! Actually, it's how to fix the foot to make it work better.
I need to figure out if I should break a foot for the ladies at my quilting group. I'm teaching them how to free motion quilt. Thursday we are all bringing our machines and we're going to see what I can do to help them and their machines do FMQ. I am having so much fun with this group!
Another tool I love is the June Tailor Shape Cut Ruler . I am not a huge piecing fan, possibly because my skills need work and because a more wholecloth type quilt lets me have more free motion quilting fun. But this ruler of sorts helps me get accurate strips cut. Since you can cut multiple strips without moving the ruler, it can go pretty fast. You run your rotary cutter through the slots on the ruler to cut.
It made short work of cutting the pieces for my new quilt. I thought I'd do a rather simple pieced quilt on which I could showcase some quilting that is typical on a pieced quilt instead of my usual over the top quilting. It will end up being a large throw size to put on my couch. I wanted it to be bigger, but I just didn't have enough of this Rainy Days and Mondays fabric. Bigger because I want to have more bigger quilts under my belt for when I am asked how big a quilt can I comfortably quilt under my Janome.
Now I need to get breakfast on the table. I have a sitter coming and I am getting away for a little "Me" time.
I think you'll do a great job teaching FMQ with your quilting group. Good for you!

What separates the GG.Bet Esports betting platform from any other bookie is its almost exclusive presentation of computer game markets – which is definitely appealing to punters who consider themselves to be gamers as well.
GG.Bet is owned and operated by a company called Invicta Networks N.V., and therefore it is the one that possesses the necessary legal certification to offer and conduct sports gambling activities. The company is licensed and regulated by the government of Curacao. While this certification isn’t considered to be quite “elite”, it does provide some sort of a guarantee for correct business conduct.
Getting the regular sports out of the way, GG.bet offers more than 400 markets in the form of Soccer, Ice Hockey, Tennis, American Football, Baseball, Boxing, and Futsal. As you can see, the amount of sports isn’t very impressive, but it does cover all important tournaments and events. Whether you’re a fan of Esports or not, you will find markets of interest here.
Moving on to the Esports section of the website, it is here where the GG.Bet bookie truly shines. The most popular esport titles in the video game industry are present in GG’s website at all times – League of Legends, Counter-Strike:GO, Starcraft 1, Starcraft 2, Dota 2, NBA 2K18, King of Glory, and Overwatch. Current market numbers are around two hundred, and the tournament events are more than 40.
Below, you will find information about the most awaited esport competitions in the world.
There are a few sports events in the world that feature a prize pool next to $20,000,000 let alone a computer game competition. Dota 2 matches offer markets such as highest game length, most different heroes, tournament winner, region winner, winning longest/shortest game, most kills, fewest deaths, most assists in a game, highest kill average, and reaching the final.
The largest LoL event – The World Championship, is awaited by both fans of the game and punters alike. With more than $4,000,000 in prize pool money, this year’s tournament edition is not going to be the only one that will have its betting opportunities listed on GG.Bet. In fact, there are many other League of Legends events organized by the game’s creators, Riot Games.
Fragadelphia 12, OGA Counter PIT, Stream.me CIS Challenger League, StarSeries i-League Season 6 Europe Qualifier, 99Liga S9, CBE 2018 Closed Qualifier, Finnish Championships 2018, IEM Shanghai 2018, BravoBet Cup, CSGO.net, X-Bet.co Invitational and King of Nordic Season are the Counter-Strike:GO events that are Shown here. The Faceit Major: London CS:GO Tournament is one of the most anticipated events in the world, by both punters and spectators alike.
Rarely does a computer game manages to define the standards of the RTS (real-time strategy) genre and continue to stay relevant. Ever since Starcraft 1 was released in 1998, it has become a global phenomenon for sports bettors as well as for fans of the game. Punters can place their wagers on upcoming games as well as make outright bets on selected season winners.
While this event doesn’t come close to others presented in this list in terms of prize pool or media attention, it is the most regular one. The BaseTradeTV Star League is held on a monthly basis, features a single-elimination bracket, and although the server is set to South Korea, the tournament is opened globally. All hosted matches come in a “best of 3” round format, and” final stages” are held on a weekly and monthly basis.
It doesn’t come as a surprise that a sports betting platform that is dedicated to computer game tournaments, wouldn’t have live stream features – and it does! Even when you open the website itself, you will be greeted by a live feed on the most watched current tournament event. League of Legends and Dota 2 competitions are the ones that are mostly streamed but should there be a significant event that is taking place on another title, it will be shown as well.
While you can pretty much select your favorite espors title and follow closely on the action, the same cannot be said about regular sports markets. So far, live stream for regular sports is unavailable, but after doing an official inquiry with the platform’s staff, we were told that although this feature isn’t present at the moment, it is something that GG.Bet is looking to introduce at some point in time.
One of the aspects where this bookie truly shines is its new section. The staff of GG.Bet is doing an outstanding job at keeping their players properly informed about upcoming tournaments, general game details, and the biggest winners in a particular field. While a fan of a particular game might already know these facts, the news section of GG.Bet is truly helpful to those who have just entered the Esports betting scene.
After much deliberation, we’ve failed to find a GG.Bet Esports betting mobile app. This, however, shouldn’t discourage you in any way, as the website itself is optimized to the highest current technological standards. Any mobile device that supports an Internet browser, will be able to access the Esports betting platform and utilize its full features without a problem. After contacting the sportsbook’s staff, we were assured that sometime in the future a dedicated GG.Bet Esports betting app will be released!
The betting slip is neatly hidden in the bottom right corner of your screen, and it expands fully once you make a bet or simply click on the orange bubble. Once opened, on its top part, you will see that there will be three types of bets you could make: single, combo, and system.
Odds can be updated automatically in the bet slip, according to a punter’s personal preferences – an option allows the players to choose “accept any odds changes”, “better odds only”, and “always ask”.
There are more than 50 ways you can fund your account at GG.Bet Esports betting! This bookie accepts all major credit/debit card brands, e-wallets, online banking, checks, as well as numerous methods for direct bank transfers. Here are some of the most popular brands for depositing money: Visa, Mastercard, Neteller, Skrill, WebMoney, Trustly, EcoPayz, UnionPay, Santander, Yandex Money, and many others.
Naturally, most deposit methods won’t charge you for a transaction, but the same cannot be said about e-wallet and online banking institutions. This same principle applies to cash withdrawal; depending on your chosen method, withdrawals may take up to 5 to 8 days and may incur some type of fees. It is noteworthy to mention, that GG.Bet also supports Bitcoin as currency!
GG.Bet Esports betting is focused on providing its services to a variety of customers, and this is why it works with many currencies. The supported money formats are USD, BRL, CAD, JPY, CNY, SEK, RUB, AUD, and NOK. You can even place your esports bets in Bitcoin.
When you register an account, you will be asked in which denomination you would like to have it created – bear in mind that any deposits or withdrawals in any other currency might result in charging fees.
Finding any type of promotions here at GG.Bet is a bit tricky when it comes to the sportsbook itself, as there isn’t a dedicated page where bonuses are listed – this, however, doesn’t mean that they aren’t there. After discussing it with customer service, we found out that complete information about any bonus programs is going to be listed in a personally addressed e-mail.
A 10$ awaits those who make their first deposit. To get this one, you will have to navigate to the “deposit” button and enter the code “GET10”, then deposit at least $10. This offer usually limited, and the promo code will disappear in 72 hours but don’t worry – this is usually a recurring offer that appears often, so you don’t need to worry if you missed the initial one.
As the most popular Dota 2 in the world “The International” is about to star, GG.Bet Esports betting gives its customers the opportunity to benefit from a 100% bonus when you deposit €5 or more, up to €100. Also called “Treasure 2018”, this particular bonus also comes with a variety of interesting requirements that need to be fulfilled, prior to becoming viable for withdrawal.
The wagering requirements for this bonus do not seem to be particularly appealing. The bonus sum must be rolled over 14 times, in the period of 14 days. The wagers will be counted toward the fulfilment of the rollover requirements must be done in a “single bet” format, and on odds of 1.75 or more. You will be able to review all your bonuses and promotions via the “my bonuses” tab in your profile section.
There is a limit for a maximum withdrawal when it comes to bonus funds, and it is in the sum of $/€50. Bear in mind that some bonuses might require the user to contact a customer service agent, so they can be enabled. GG.Bet Esports betting reserves its right to suspend any bonus amounts and any winnings resulting from it at any given point in time, without explanation, and users that have won, are subject to have their gameplay examined by GG.Bet so their wager is deemed to be done in a fair manner.
A very important fact to note here is that in order to utilize any bonus bets, the “real money balance” must be zero. Should a punter find themselves in a position where a bet is made with remaining real funds and a part of an available bonus amount, any winnings resulting from this kind of bet would be distributed to their individual designations proportionally. If a withdrawal of bonus funds or winnings resulting from those are made prior to the completion of any wagering requirements, any bonus winnings and funds will be reduced to zero.
One of the features of a good Esports betting platform is the presence of a properly introduced customer support system. GG.Bet definitely excels at this point, as it provides its players with all necessary methods for contacting them.
Support is available 24/7, and GG.Bet staff can be reached via a telephone number, email, and live chat. If you wish to use the live chat function, make sure that you’ve registered a free account and have logged in – otherwise the chat button feature won’t work!
This gamer-oriented sportsbook delivers a fresh-feel to punters everywhere. One of the smallest drawbacks though is the fact that we couldn’t find any feature that would allow us to change the odds format. Decimal is the only way you will be able to view the odds, so if you’re not familiar with it, you better get acquainted with the mechanic, or simply have a tab open with an odds converter to help you out.
The lack of a GG.Bet Esports betting app is another small con, especially given the fact that the website seems to be created for people who are familiar with the computer gaming markets out there. In the end, the better is much more than the bad, so you shouldn’t worry about it that much, because the odds are very good, the bonus program delivers diverse offers, the news section is a nice touch, and the customer service infrastructure is better than efficient.
GG.Bet Esports betting is a platform you wouldn’t see every day – with a “by gamers for gamers” design, it feels reminiscent to the menu of many computer games you might have played before. So far, the features it offers are quite plentiful and while the number of markets isn’t that impressive, new possibilities are added with each day. We can only expect things to get better in time!

Jumping the Gun. Mea Culpa, Mea Culpa, Mea Maxima Culpa.
The madness of the recent elections put me into a drunken stupor (even though I do not drink alcoholic beverages). For hours on end I sat glued to Arutz 12 and listened to the commentators and rejoiced in the final counting (or so I thought !!). Gantz at 37 and Bibi at 33.
I was excited that my preferred candidate, a newcomer to politics, was announced the winner. I rushed to inform my family of the welcome news and sent a dozen emails to friends living outside of Israel.
I even prepared a celebratory dinner for me and my daughter and while the food was cooking I wrote and sent an article to my editor in praise of the Benny Gantz victory.
Only sometime later I was informed that a revised count of the ballots gave the victory to Binyamin Netanyahu. I was overcome by surprise. What would happen to the now incorrect data of my article.?
Since it had already been submitted as a draft, I added a revision statement at the end apologizing for conveying incorrect information. Thankfully and kindly, my editor accepted it for publication.
Additionally, I could not enjoy eating a celebratory meal. Food would stick in my throat as I grieved for the apparent defeat of Benny Gantz. I had wrongly assumed that most of our voters would not support Bibi in view of his upcoming conviction, hearing, trial, and possible imprisonment. I thought why elect someone who within 8 months in office may be indicted and removed from office. I was wrong !
I jumped the gun and have need to apologize to my readers for my error. Mea cuilpa. Mea culpa. Mea maxima culpa. My “sin”. My “sin”. My big “sin”.
Today I have learned a lesson that I should have known from Journalism 101… never publish until the information is known to be 100% correct and accepted by the editors prior to publication.
Those of you who have read lately my many articles regarding this election know very well my personal views on the candidates. I was completely surprised to learn that Naftali Bennett and Ayelet Shaked of the New Right party received zero mandates. The Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Justice are now up for grabs.
I was not at all upset that Feiglin, an absolute heavy-drinking lunatic, received zero mandates. At least our country is still safe in Netanyahu’s hands, even though I regret his victory.
This election proved that our democracy is still alive and vibrant. Long may it ever be so.
The poor turn-out of Arab voters was rather surprising but I was pleased that they will be represented by Dr. Ahmed Tibi, an outstanding Arab orator. It is said that Dr. Tibi’s magnificent Hebrew is comparable to Abba Eban’s magnificent English. Dr. Tibi represents his people well.
It saddened me to see that no Druze member was re-elected to the Knesset. We need their voices, their votes and their input because they are the most loyal and loving of our non-Jewish minority citizens.
Perhaps the new Knesset can revise or adjust portions of Bibi’s disliked Nation-State law in order to satisfy and soothe with healing balm of Gilead the hearts and minds of our unhappy minorities.
Now we must await the party representatives who must meet with President Rivlin prior to his decision to announce who will be our new prime minister. It does not require him to choose Netanyahu.
These are interesting times in the circus history of our young country. All that is missing are the elephants, the clowns, and the popcorn.
And I truly hope we will never have to go through another such a badly mixed-up election campaign as we have now experienced and survived.
Tolerance and respect for differences are the elements very sadly lacking in our political life.
Instead of enjoying the charoset, too many prefer the bitter taste of the maror. That is perhaps why the Hillel sandwich composed of a combination of charoset and maror between two small slices of matzah are the main hors’ d’ouevres at the Passover seder.
Their lesson is to teach us that we must accept the bitter and the sweet together.
Apologies to readers for my jumping the gun. At 86 I hope I don’t make too many more mistakes lest the pearly gates of heaven will be closed to me.
To all, best wishes for a chag haPesach kasher v’samayach. Or in my father’s words, a zeesen Pesach.

HP Hemel Hempstead Leasehold property – Whats so special?
The conveyancing costs are higher on a HP Hemel Hempstead leasehold property than on a HP Hemel Hempstead freehold property. The greater the legal work the greater the cost.

Students standing up for their rights. It’s great to see students fighting for separation of church and state.
The students say the phrase violates the constitutional separation of church and state.
They also say the daily reading of the pledge over the school public address system at the start of the second class takes away from education time and is ignored or mocked by some students.
A state law passed in 2004 requires schools to offer the opportunity to recite the pledge each day but does not require students to participate.
The protesting students, members of the Student Worker Club, want administrators to hold the pledge reading in the auditorium during each of the school’s two lunch periods for any students who want to participate.
Otherwise, they said, they plan to walk out each Thursday when the pledge is read and recite their version, which omits the reference to God and adds allegiance to constitutional rights, diversity and freedom, among other things.
Good for them, time people started fighting this. It never ceases to amaze me how many stupid people think it’s okay to include that phrase in the pledge. The original text has been time and again shown TO NOT CONTAIN THE PHRASE!
That being said, forcing students to recite that pledge every morning is a form of mind control. Real Americans form their own opinions and form their own love of their country. They do not need to be told what it means to be American. “Compulsory unification of opinion” as the Supreme Court so eloquently put it. Ironically, the ones who now call everyone who disagrees with them un-American (I’m looking at you, you pretend mokey-excuse for a president) are the most America-hating asses on the planet. Bin Laden loves the US more than Bush.
There is only one problem, many kids have become mindless and with no direction. People have free will and should decide after their 12 yr. old what they want to do. I don’t believe all children are taught to truly love and respect their parents or country now a days. America is suffering from an identity crisis fom want of critical thinking. Most parents and children do not know themselves and would be shocked if they knew who they were. Children and teens are following one another and are becoming like little robots. They follow each other like sheep without a sheppard and they have also become like ships without a rudder. This great nation will perish in a very short time if it does not turn around and face the sun.
This made me so happy to hear, I think I nearly orgasmed.
Also, I agree with both of ya, Dorris, and Spoon. Hopefully this is only the beginning, right?
theres actually not a comma in “one nation under god,” which is what makes it wrong to be forcefully placed upon all students in this country.
The words “under God” were actually added to the pledge during the fifties. I, myself, refuse to recite the pledge anymore (with or without those two words) as it is an archaic lifeline to the time immediately subsequent to the ending of the American Civil War when the victorious northern states mandated the citizenry of the rebellious southern states “pledge allegiance” to the union. Besides, it begins by subjugating the speaker to a FLAG, a piece of colored fabric. I will decide to whom or what I will be loyal, thank you very much!

LONDON (Reuters Breakingviews) - Deutsche Bank’s latest strategy for boosting its appeal may be its most effective yet: the German lender headed by Christian Sewing has banned staff from Dorchester Collection hotels after its owner, the government of Brunei, implemented homophobic laws. Shareholders will welcome the fact that employees of a bank whose costs ate up 93 percent of revenue last year will no longer frequent a chain which charges nearly 400 pounds a night for a standard room in London. However, the decision raises the moral bar.
Brunei’s state-owned investment agency owns the Dorchester Collection hotel group, which includes luxury venues such as The Beverly Hills Hotel and Hotel Bel-Air in Los Angeles. Oscar-winning actor George Clooney called for a boycott after the government implemented Islamic laws which would impose the death penalty for homosexuality or adultery. Celebrities including singer Elton John have joined in.
Shunning the sultanate is relatively painless for Deutsche, which has limited business in Brunei. Yet like many of its global peers the bank continues to operate in Saudi Arabia, which also has stringent anti-homosexuality laws. Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon recently met government-linked clients in the desert kingdom.
Banks and other big multinationals long argued that they had to accept the laws of countries where they do business. But pressure from customers and shareholders is forcing them to set out moral positions. Employers’ efforts to attract and retain a diverse workforce in the West is also increasingly hard to square with maintaining links with repressive regimes.
Big companies generally muster two defences. The first is that if the government is moving in the right direction, a boycott would be counter-productive. This is how companies justified their presence in Saudi Arabia – which recently allowed women to drive – at least until the brutal murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi by Saudi agents last year. The second defence is that companies have an obligation to their shareholders to weigh the costs of boycotting certain countries against the reputational damage of working with them.
Increased investor demand for companies to meet a range of social and environmental criteria means banks especially will face more awkward questions about business in illiberal countries. So while Deutsche’s Brunei boycott may be relatively cost-free, it will face bigger financial tests in the future.

I was in contact with the senior regulatory officer at ARPANSA recently, discussing the current position regarding the Regulatory Impact Statement consultation draft. Comments on this draft statement had until 31st July this year to be submitted. As they were still receiving submissions after the closure date, ARPANSA extended the timeline for receiving submissions. In the end only 260 were received - rather a poor response I feel, for something that may have a massive effect on this industry.
The next stage is for the comments within the submissions to be collated by the scientific secretary then assessed by the Working Group [who prepared the Draft for the Regulatory Impact Statement] as to their relevance and usefulness. The Working Group will then prepare a “comments resolution table” in which they will list the comment, then the action taken by the Working Group in resolving the comment, ie. accept/partially accept/reject the comment or proposal. Then the updated version of the consultation Regulatory Impact Statement [RIS] is endorsed by the Radiation Health Committee [RHC], who also confirm that the comments were adequately addressed by the “comments resolution table”. The Radiation Health Committee then decides on the most appropriate way of addressing the issues raised in the Regulatory Impact Statement and the Working Group implements that decision, ie drafting of a guideline.
When finished, the draft guide and a “decision Regulatory Impact Statement” [based on consultation RIS plus comments] is sent to the Office of Best Practice Regulation to get the government signoff that the process is transparent and addresses the identified problems in a cost effective manner.
All this obviously involves a substantial amount of time and resources, so ARPANSA cannot give a timeframe for any potential guidelines, licencing requirements or whatever. Personally, I think that means we are at least 2 or more years away for anything new being introduced.

Does Your Church have a Weak Bible?
Maybe you think not. But, does your church teach that the Bible is not inerrant or inspired? God’s Word is for faith, practice, and is to be our authority for all that we do. Is God’s Word central to the everyday life and happenings at your church?
If not, then books, movies, and philosophy or psychology will take its place such as Bible studies started to study someone’s book (Can I say that is ok if it is one of my books? Oh, I guess not.), and not one of the 66 God has given, taking the words of men over the words of God. Of course it is ok to read and use good Christian books, curriculums, study helps, and such, as long as the Bible is studied first and foremost.
Make sure that any programs of study, even those of ITW, are used only as an addendum alongside God’s Word. His Word is the authority and not some other book. If your church thinking or ministry model takes the words of mere men and uses that to supersede or replace His Word, this is apostasy in action. If your Bible is weak, you have a Church of Perfidy!

On Writing is at the top of my Stephen King book lists (maybe one day I'll compile my top 10 Stephen King books). This book has been so inspirational to me. Honestly, when I read it, I wanted to sit down and start typing out a novel, short story, and everything in-between.
This book is a Stephen King answer to a memoir. He tells how he writes. He doesn't tell anyone how to write, he explains how he does to a point. Somewhat like a magician giving away a few magic tricks. Frankly, he gives some of his magic with the book. Luckily for us he has plenty to around.
My only criticism of the book would be that he dwells a lot on being hit by the truck so many years ago. Though it is somewhat interesting to read about how he overcame that, I think that book could’ve done without that story.
If you, or someone you know, is an up-and-coming writer, I would suggest this book. Learn from the master. Become inspired.
