Nama invited to appear before Dail committee over £1bn Project Eagle
The Republic of Ireland's finance committee is to summon Nama for questioning following fresh allegations surrounding the sale of the body's Northern Ireland portfolio.
A BBC Spotlight programme on Tuesday broadcast claims that businessman Frank Cushnahan, who has been at the centre of the £1bn deal controversy, was recorded accepting a £40,000 cash payment from a Nama borrower.
The recording was made in 2012 at a time when Mr Cushnahan was still working as an adviser to the organisation.
The payment was made by the Co Down property developer John Miskelly during a meeting in a hospital car park.
Mr Miskelly said: "Payments made by me to any persons have been lawful."
Mr Cushnahan also denied any wrongdoing and told the BBC's Spotlight programme he would be providing no further responses because of an ongoing National Crime Agency probe.
John McGuinness, the chairman of the Republic's finance committee, said Nama had been invited to appear before the oversight body and answer questions about the controversial sale of the portfolio.
"My strong belief is that until such time as both governments decide on a commission of inquiry, we will not get to the bottom of this," added Mr McGuinness. "There are two jurisdictions involved, and it's very complicated. Clearly, Nama have questions to answer."
The development came as Stormont's main opposition party demanded the new Assembly term should open with a debate over the allegations.
Ulster Unionist leader Mike Nesbitt's party tabled a request for the issue to be top of the agenda, as a "matter of the day", when MLAs return from their summer break for the first plenary session on Monday.
Former Nama adviser Mr Cushnahan was accused last year in a previous BBC Spotlight probe of receiving an illegal fixer's fee for arranging the sale of the Northern Ireland property portfolio to the American vulture fund Cerberus.
Mr Cushnahan has consistently denied that he was due to receive money.
On Tuesday evening, a further BBC Spotlight investigation broadcast secret recordings of meetings between Mr Cushnahan and property developer Mr Miskelly.
Both men have denied any wrongdoing.
Nama is the Republic of Ireland's so-called bad bank, which was established in 2009 in the aftermath of the country's banking crisis.

On deposit in the Archives are the pre-1900 civil court files for New Orleans. These materials have several uses for the building researcher. Often in tracing the chain-of- title you will find reference to a transfer involving a court proceeding. In some cases the chain may actually be broken by a succession or sheriff's sale. It is then necessary to go to the court record in order to regain the proper track. If the COB reference is to a case with a CDC number higher than 60000, the court record will still be in the custody of the Clerk of Civil District Court on the fourth floor of the courthouse. If the reference is to a lower CDC number or to a suit from another court, then the record should be available in the City Archives. The information in the record will, in most cases, provide a fresh COB number or other reference to enable you to get back into the search.
Court documents can be very useful even when the chain-of-title is not broken. In a succession, for example, there may be an inventory of the deceased's possessions, including a room-by-room listing of the furnishings of his house and/or the contents of his business establishment. From such a record you can gain invaluable insight into the original use of the structure. Several series of deed books also exist, at least one of which (VF800/1846-1863) includes inventories made in connection with court- ordered sales. One of the most interesting of these provides a listing of the contents of each room in the St. Charles Hotel during the 1850s. Other deed books record Sheriff sales ordered by the court. These volumes can be especially useful in bridging gaps in your chain of title.
There is also the possibility that you might come across a court case involving some dispute that arose out of the construction (or alteration) of your building. One of the most interesting such cases is the succession of John Tiner. This record provides, among other things, incredible detail on the construction and later repairs to structures built on behalf of Tiner's minor children. Included are bills for labor and materials and testimony by builders and architects, Henry Howard among them, as to the value of the subject projects. This record would almost certainly be encountered by anyone doing a serious research project on one of the "Tiner houses. Other interesting cases might be identified by searching the docket indexes for the names of the owner of the property, since he might have been suing (or being sued by) his architect or contractor. Similarly, cases might be found by searching the indexes for the names of known builders or architects.
Other Archives Records
There are many other records in the City Archives that may be of some interest to your project. Most of these additional materials are more indirect than those mentioned above, that is, they contain useful research data despite the fact that their original purpose may have had little or nothing to do with the property in which you are now interested. Such documents were produced in response to some civic need, general or specific, and they serendipitously happen to include some reference to the property or properties in which you are now interested. Some of these records are listed below along with comments as to their general usefulness and specific references to especially valuable series.
Board of Zoning Adjustments
This body, currently part of the Department of Safety and Permits, began operations in 1929. It has the responsibility to approve variances from the zoning ordinance. Among its records are:
Provides the location of each property for which a variance was sought, the name of the owner, and the name of the applicant (often the architect or contractor). Also included are reports of the hearings held on each application. Details of the proposed zoning as revealed in the hearings may provide information as to the nature of the work intended, whether it was a new building or an addition or alteration to an existing structure. The hearings may also provide insight into the use and/or appearance of neighboring properties. Also included is the decision rendered by the Board, along with occasional comments on the matter at hand. [Note: Minutes from prior to 1943 were apparently destroyed, as were scattered volumes from later years, so that there are several gaps in the minute].
From the Acts and deliberations of the Cabildo through the ordinances passed earlier this year, the Archives includes copies of a large segment of the body of municipal law. A good deal of this legislation relates in some way to building in general or to specific properties. The Cabildo promulgated Spanish construction rules in 1975 and such laws were added to and elaborated on until the passage of the first New Orleans building code in 1910. These ordinances help to provide an understanding of individual structures by demonstrating just what the legal requirements were at a given time.
The Council also approved specifications and contracts for work on municipal properties. On October 12, 1820, for example, the Council approved an estimate of repairs to be made to the City Hall (the Cabildo), including the type of bricks to be used in the entrance way and the exterior colors to be used. Earlier, in 1808, the body adopted the contract and estimate for construction of the public market (the Meat Market of the French Market complex). Indexes are available for most of the ordinance series.
The Council collected a variety of supporting evidence for and against the projects that it had to make decisions on over the years. These took the form of petitions, bids, proposals, and letters, some of which offer detailed descriptions of the projects under considerations. The earliest of these documents are filed under the call number AB320/1770-1835. The available indexing is generally not very specific, but, given the date of passage of an ordinance, a search can be made of the Council meeting of that and preceding dates.
The City Surveyor was the official with responsibility for building matters (along with many other aspects of the municipality's physical appearance) during most of the nineteenth century. He drafted many maps and surveys for both public and private properties, he either drew up or approved plans for public edifices, and he oversaw compliance with local construction rules and regulations. A good many of his record books, plans, and maps have survived in the Archives. Some of these may be of interest in researching a specific site or even an entire section of the city. Not all of them are listed here, but the researcher may want to consult the inventory of the Surveyor's files prepared for the Archives by Sally K. Reeves (see the archivist for this inventory).
Measurements of buildings and walls in the 2nd Municipality
This volume gives data on the structural details of several buildings in the American Sector of New Orleans.
Specifications for, among other things, new construction and repairs to public facilities such as fire houses, police stations, and jails
This office absorbed that of the Surveyor in 1890 and continued the work of that predecessor agency. The Engineer's records are filed in a separate series within the Archives and they tend to be arranged in a more systematic fashion as well. The greater part of the surviving documents (in addition to the building permits and blueprints noted above) is made up of correspondence, both incoming and outgoing. The latter series is fairly well indexed and includes letters relating to projects of both the public and private sectors. In contrast to these outgoing files, the incoming letters are unindexed and not yet fully processed. They include communications from architects and contractors relative to building projects, as well as from other public officials and citizens complaining about substandard building conditions and the like.
City Planning Commission
Planning/Zoning Minute Books
These volumes include the official minutes of all planning and zoning meetings of the Planning Commission. As such they provide information on all subdivisions of real estate, both major developments and minor resubdivisions of squares, and on all requests for zoning changes that required Planning Commission and Council approval. In addition to the written minutes the books also contain approved subdivision maps and, in disputed zoning cases, supporting documentation from both sides in the controversy. The latter category of document may include maps showing ownership in the affected area and/or photographs showing existing conditions. In 1937, for example, zoning docket #184 includes photos of the neighborhood immediately surrounding the property at 4223 South Carrollton Ave. [Note: Prior to 1953 all planning and zoning matters were recorded in one volume. After that date separate volumes were maintained for planning and zoning matters].
The published semiannual reports of the Comptroller during the nineteenth century contained fairly detailed reports of municipal expenditures, some of which provide information on specific structures, mainly public buildings. In the first half of 1856, for example, there was recorded a payment to Pelanne Brothers for repairs made to the iron columns of the Vegetable Market in the French Market complex. In most cases reference is made to the ordinance that appropriated the expended funds. Sometimes these ordinances include additional details on the project.
Vieux Carre Commission
These are typewritten minutes of the regular Commission meetings. They include references to individual applications for construction work in the Vieux Carre. In some instances the detail is not very great as, for example, in the May 11, 1943 reference to "application of the Southern Pine Association to make changes to the front of their premises, 537 Bienville in accordance with a plan submitted, was approved."
Minutes of Architectural Committee meetings
Similar to the above series but often with more detailed reference to specific features of the work under consideration.
These records may have importance for several reasons. If you suspect that an earlier structure on your lot was destroyed by fire, then these records could provide confirmation. Fire reports might also describe partial fire damage to your building, something that might be useful to an understanding of the resultant repairs. Unfortunately, most of the nineteenth century fire records are missing. The Division's holdings are shown below:
Reports of the Fire Alarm Telegraph Corps
Includes exact location of fire, name of owner and occupant, use of the structure, amount of loss, value of improvements and contents, amount of insurance, and the cause of the fire.
Arranged by month and by fire district. Includes date and time of fire; name of owner and occupant; use, location, number of stories, and style of the structure; cause of fire; value, amount of loss, and insurance coverage of stock, building, and furniture; amount and type of hose needed to extinguish the fire; and occasional remarks.

What is life all about? In the end, is it no more than a wisp of vapor, a puff of wind, a mere breath? So says the Preacher in the book of Ecclesiastes. But is this the whole message of Ecclesiastes?
With imagination and clarity, Derek Kidner introduces this unusual Old Testament book that speaks so powerfully to each new generation. He reveals how the Preacher confronts difficult questions and examines extremes of human experience, facing the fear that God is distant and nothing has meaning. Finally, however, we are led to encounter the God who was present all along, who cares about the details of our lives.
Part of the beloved Bible Speaks Today series, The Message of Ecclesiastes offers an insightful, readable exposition of the biblical text and thought-provoking discussion of how its meaning relates to contemporary life. Used by students and teachers around the world, the Bible Speaks Today commentaries are ideal for those studying or preaching the Bible and anyone who wants to delve deeper into the text. This revised edition of a classic volume features lightly updated language and current NRSV Scripture quotations with a new interior design.

MILAN/SYDNEY (Reuters) – Global shares climbed and the dollar eased on Tuesday ahead of Janet Yellen’s Treasury Secretary confirmation speech, in which she is expected to bolster the case for heavy fiscal stimulus in the world’s largest economy.
Concerns that pandemic lockdowns could slow the road to economic recovery faded into the background as markets prepared for possible positive surprises from the earnings season.
Asian shares posted strong gains and in Europe upbeat earnings reports from miner Rio Tinto and computer peripherals maker Logitech helped the STOXX 600 benchmark index edge up by 0.1% in morning trade.
Wall Street looked set for a strong start, with S&P 500 futures rising 0.6% and Nasdaq futures up 0.9% after the long holiday weekend.
The MSCI world equity index, which tracks shares in 49 countries, was up 0.3% by 0907 GMT.
“Yellen … will attempt to sell U.S. President-elect Biden’s $1.9 trillion fiscal stimulus plan (arguing that low interest rates allow a big fiscal stimulus),” Paul Donovan, Chief Economist of UBS Global Wealth Management, said in a note.
“If the growth rate generated by government investment in infrastructure or people exceeds the cost of borrowing, it is a worthwhile exercise.”
Yellen will tell the Senate Finance Committee that the government must “act big” with its next coronavirus relief package, according to her prepared statement seen by Reuters.
Asian shares had climbed on investor expectation that China’s economic strength would help TO underpin growth in the region. MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose 1.5% to a record high.
Data on Monday confirmed that the world’s second-largest economy was one of the few to grow over 2020 and actually gathered pace as the year drew to a close.
Analysts at JPMorgan felt the coming earnings season could brighten the mood, given the consensus in Europe was for a 25% fall year on year, setting a very low bar.
“The projected EPS (earnings per share) growth in Europe now stands at the lows of the crisis, which seems too conservative and could likely lead to positive surprises over the reporting season,” they wrote.
The same could be true for the United States, where results from BofA, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and Netflix are due this week.
Despite the risk-on mood on Tuesday, dealers were wary ahead of U.S. President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration on Wednesday, given the risk of more mob violence.
Wall Street is also bracing for tougher regulations now that the Democrats control the Senate, with Biden set to nominate two consumer champions to top financial agencies.
In foreign exchange markets, the U.S. dollar slipped from close to its highest in nearly a month as caution set in before Yellen’s speech.
The dollar index was last at 90.63, down 0.15% on the day but comfortably above its recent trough of 89.206.
The euro rose 0.2% to $1.2106 after touching a six-week low of $1.2052 overnight, while the dollar weakened by 0.3% against the safe-haven yen at 104.04.
In fixed income markets, Italian 10-year bond yields fell slightly to 0.592% ahead of a confidence vote in the Senate that could force Prime minister Giuseppe Conte to resign.
But expectations that snap elections are unlikely, coupled with ECB stimulus to fight the adverse impact of the coronavirus crisis, limited any sell-off.
Gold rose 0.3% to $1,843 an ounce after briefly reaching a six-week low of $1,809.90 overnight. [GOL/]
Crude oil prices firmed on optimism that government stimulus will buoy global economic growth and oil demand. Brent crude futures rose 0.7% to $55.40 a barrel and U.S. crude was up 0.5% at $52.60. [O/R]

Types of Conveyor Belts used for Industrial Purposes
A conveyor belt is an essential tool in the material handling sector. They are the continuous moving strips that are used for carrying different materials from one place to another. Mostly used for conveying a large volume of materials in a short span of time. A conveyor belt is also known as a belt conveyor.
Industrial Conveyor belt system
Industrial Conveyor belt system comprises of two or more pulleys. A continuous loop of transport stream the conveyor belt rotates about them. In order to move the belt and the material to transport one or both the pulleys should be power-driven.
These belts are generally made of rubber, PVC, Urethane, Neoprene, Nylon, Nitrile, Polyester, leather and others. The industrial conveyor belts are made up of multiple layers of material. Most of the material transporting belts comprise of two layers. The underneath layer is known as Carcass and it gives the linear strength and shape. The Carcass is made up of Polyester, nylon and cotton. The upper layer is known as the cover. Diverse variants of rubber or plastic compounds are utilised to make the cover.
Conveyor Belts that are used for Industrial Purposes:
Almost all of the manufacturers and suppliers were greatly dependent on the manpower before the emergence of industrial conveyor belts. The safety of the workforce and the quality of the product is a major issue under the manual handling of the products. In the current industry-driven scenario these rotating pulleys and belts are chosen for product handling.
Presently, a sophisticated technology is used in the Industrial Conveyor Belts over the simple belt conveyor systems. Advanced belts are opted based on their application by the industries. For instance, a simple metal belt would not be able to handle stones which could be precious or sensitive materials. Material handling Industries completely understand the types of conveyor belts. On the basis of their applications, they choose the safer, less time consuming, efficient belt conveyor systems as per their requirement.
The most widely used Industrial Conveyor Belts and their applications:
- Solid, general-use belts:
These solid General use belts are commonly used in industries. They are made of rubber or a fabric such as nylon, polyester, neoprene, or nitrile. The primary applications of the belt can be determined by the properties of the belt. If we consider, mining and milling industries they commonly use rubber belts in handling the materials like raw ore and aggregates in a bulk quantity. Whereas, at the grocery stores, they make use of PVC conveyor belts and at the Airports belts made of Neoprene, polyester, or rubber are used for handling baggage.
- Filter belts:
In order, to drain out the excess liquid or toxins, Water treatment industries commonly use these Filter belts which permit the particles to pass through a filter instead of being carried by the conveyor system.
- Woven metal belts:
These belts are mainly used in industries which deal with cooling, drying and heating processes in the sectors like food manufacturing, electronics and glass – manufacturing industries. These belts are made of interlinked chains or wiring to facilitate the flow of air while the product is carried.
- Hinged belts:
The Industries which handle scrap and various small products for recycling mainly make use of these hinged belts. These belts are made of metal. These belts provide a flat, solid surface which rotates around the pulley by means of the interlocking hinges. These belts are very sturdy and can be used rigorously.
- Plastic interlocking belts:
These are mainly used in food packaging industries and in the automotive sector. These belts are suitable for environments where there would be regular cleaning and belt change. These Plastic belts are the perfect substitute for fabric and metal belts.
Types of Conveyor Belts that are used in Industries:
The major types of conveyor belts that are used in industries are as follows:
- Flat Belt Conveyors
A number of powered pulleys are used to move the continuous flat belts made up of Synthetic and natural fabrics like polyester, nylon. These flat belt conveyors are the most commonly used and easily adaptable industrial conveyor systems.
- Modular Belt Conveyors
This type of conveyor belts comprise of individual and interlocked belting and are generally made of hard plastic.
- Cleated Belt Conveyors
Alongside the belt’s width, there are vertical cleats put together in these cleated Belt Conveyors.
- Curved Belt Conveyors
This type of conveyor belt carries materials around the corners of the floor making the best possible way to use up the available floor space with its unique curved frame feature.
- Incline or Decline Belt Conveyors
Incline or Decline Belt Conveyors are made used when the materials are needed to be conveyed at an angle of conveyance.
Importance of Conveyors in Industrial Automation
The conveyors in industrial automation have a wide range of purposes and use, ranging from the manufacturing sector to the packaging and supply.
Below are the main reasons which will enlighten the importance conveyors in industrial automation systems.
- Manual Waste Reduction
In a material handling industry, there would be specific tasks in a process which require transporting objects which are heavy in the line of production. In the course of accomplishing these tasks, there is a lot of manpower used and is wasted, adds no value to the production process. Moreover, there are possibilities of human injuries and loss of lives.
To obtain an increased production over a short time span, an automated conveyor system should be introduced in a material handling industry. This will make sure the manpower utilize their time on critical business development tasks rather than wasting on unproductive work.
- Flexibility guaranteed
Never assume that conveyors are inflexible and are motionless, Modular conveyors are very much flexible and are used in several operations. On top of this, they are very much easy to install.
As flexibility is the key, try choosing a modular conveyor system so that you are allowed to customize your conveyor system for as per your requirement and serve you better.
You can still achieve flexibility by installing a fixed conveyor system by proper configuration and arrangement. Through this you can achieve flexibility by straight lines, this fixed conveyor system can transport materials from many production and storage locations to the final destination.
- Improved Quality Control
On the introduction of conveyors in industrial automation, one can eradicate the scrap and thus would result in improved quality control. In addition, it also helps in identifying the crucial problems related to the product like the faulty parts and unnecessary metal. Through an automated conveyor system, one can organize products for the upcoming operations.
Among numerous advanced technologies, conveyors are widely popular in implementing a manufacturing or production unit.

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) _ A national child protection organization is demanding the resignation of the head of the Kansas child welfare
Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services chief Don Jordan is backing off secretly recorded statements in which he accused assistant district attorneys of bullying his caseworkers into including in sworn affidavits things they do not believe.
Jordan wrote in an opinion column published Thursday in The Wichita Eagle that he did not know of any instance in which social workers committed perjury or misrepresented the facts in court documents used to remove children from their families.
The National Coalition for Child Protection Reform said it would call on Gov. Kathleen Sebelius to demand Jordan's resignation.

Signs, Symptoms, and Ways to Feel Better
Imagine the thrill of off-roading through rugged terrain, conquering steep inclines, and enjoying breathtaking views from high altitudes. Off-roading in higher altitude locations can be an exhilarating experience, but it's important to be aware of the potential risks associated with Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS).
AMS is a condition that can affect anyone at altitudes above 8,000 feet, and if left untreated, it can spoil your off-roading adventure. In this blog post, we will explore the signs and symptoms of AMS, as well as provide useful tips on how to feel better and ensure a safe and enjoyable off-roading experience in higher altitude locations.
Section 1: Understanding Acute Mountain Sickness
When you venture into higher altitudes, your body needs time to adjust to the reduced oxygen levels in the air. This adjustment period is crucial for avoiding AMS. The primary cause of AMS is the rapid ascent to high altitudes without giving your body enough time to acclimate. It's important to note that AMS can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender, or physical fitness.
Recognizing the signs and symptoms of AMS is the first step in dealing with this condition. Some common symptoms include headaches, dizziness, nausea, fatigue, loss of appetite, and trouble sleeping. It's crucial to pay attention to these warning signs, as they can escalate into more severe conditions like High Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE) or High Altitude Cerebral Edema (HACE) if left untreated.
If you or anyone in your off-roading group starts experiencing symptoms of AMS, it's essential to take immediate action. Ignoring these symptoms can not only ruin your expedition but also put your health at risk.
Section 2: How to Feel Better
When it comes to dealing with AMS, prevention is key. Here are some practical steps you can take to reduce the risk of AMS and ensure a more enjoyable off-roading experience:
1. Gradual Ascent: Allow your body time to adapt to higher altitudes by taking a gradual approach. Avoid rapid ascents and plan your off-roading trip with a focus on acclimatization.
2. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of fluids, preferably water, to stay hydrated. Dehydration can worsen the symptoms of AMS, so it's crucial to keep your body well-hydrated.
3. Avoid Alcohol and Smoking: Alcohol and smoking can exacerbate the effects of AMS. It's best to refrain from consuming alcohol and avoid smoking during your off-roading adventure.
4. Consider Medication: Consult with your healthcare provider about taking medication specifically designed to prevent or alleviate the symptoms of AMS. These medications can be a valuable addition to your off-roading gear, especially if you are prone to AMS.
5. Descend if Symptoms Worsen: If you or someone in your group experiences severe symptoms of AMS, it's crucial to descend to lower altitudes immediately. Descending can significantly improve symptoms and prevent further complications.
Section 3: What Should You Do?
If you suspect that you or someone in your group has AMS, it's important to take action promptly. Here are the steps you should follow:
1. Rest: Take a break and rest in a comfortable spot. Avoid any strenuous physical activity to allow your body to recover.
2. Hydrate: Drink plenty of fluids, preferably water. Hydration is essential for combating the symptoms of AMS and aiding in your body's acclimatization process.
3. Descend if Necessary: If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's crucial to descend to a lower altitude. This can provide immediate relief and prevent the condition from escalating.
4. Monitor the Symptoms: Keep a close eye on the symptoms and be ready to seek medical attention if they become severe or if there are any signs of HACE or HAPE.
5. Inform People in your Group: Communicate with your fellow off-roaders about your condition. It's important for others to be aware of your situation and ready to assist if needed.
By following these steps, you can effectively manage AMS and ensure a safer and more enjoyable off-roading experience in higher altitude locations.
Off-roading in higher altitude locations can be an incredible adventure, but it's essential to be aware of the risks associated with AMS.
By understanding the signs and symptoms of AMS, taking preventive measures, and knowing what to do if you or someone in your group experiences AMS, you can ensure a safer and more enjoyable off-roading experience.
Remember, your health and well-being should always be a top priority, even when exploring the most thrilling off-roading destinations.

Defence Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula has blamed the state for the long-running Fees Must Fall protests in most higher institutions of learning in the country.
The minister said had it been government had a clear picture of the students’ demands and listened to them, violence in the institutions wouldn’t have escalated to its present state.
“I was quick to say, after they spoke to us, that we have not listened to these kids. They are making a demand, but in their documents, there are clear proposals on how to solve this thing,” the minister said.
Taking on the police, Mapisa-Nqakula expressed deep concern about the way they handle the protesters. She slammed the police for handling the students roughly, especially protesters at Wits and Rhodes university.
Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula Slams Police
She disclosed that police ought to neutralize the situation by attacking students’ lower bodies, their feet or even the ground and not to shoot their upper bodies with rubber bullets.
According to the minister, police using shields, batons, water cannons, teargas, and rubber bullets shows that they are acting under panic.
She pressed home the fact that government and the protesters are unable to sink their differences because the state has refused to listen to the students.
In conclusion, the minister who spoke to reporters on Wednesday said the only way to appease the students is for government to go back to the drawing board. She also debunked speculations that she plans to deploy armies to the universities.
Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula is part of the ministerial task team set up earlier this month by President Jacob Zuma. The team is saddled with the responsibility of helping Higher Education Minister Blade Nzimande end protests at universities. Other members include ministers of home affairs; state security; police; planning and monitoring; and justice.
The FeesMustFall protests have turned out to be a pain in government’s neck; a nightmare for students who are willing to study; and a can of worms – too difficult for government to handle.
No fewer than 70 students have been arrested so far. Most of them – including the protest ringleader Dlamini Mcebo- were denied bail when they appeared before the courts earlier this week.

Beethoven was a lover of nature who spent a great deal of his time on walks in the country. He frequently left Vienna to work in rural locations. The composer said. 68 Pastoral Beethoven provided the movements at this symphony with titles, as well as the work itself but he also declared that he was concerned with sensation rather than depiction - in fact his own musical reactions to country Iife, and not what life .

Trump escalates attacks on attorney general Sessions
Donald Trump has escalated his attacks on attorney general Jeff Sessions, suggesting the Department of Justice had put Republicans in mid-term jeopardy with recent indictments of two congressmen.
In his latest broadside against the Justice Department’s traditional independence, the president tweeted that “Obama era investigations, of two very popular Republican Congressmen were brought to a well publicized charge, just ahead of the Mid-Terms, by the Jeff Sessions Justice Department”.
He added: “Two easy wins now in doubt because there is not enough time. Good job Jeff……”
The first two Republicans to endorse Mr Trump in the Republican presidential primaries were indicted on separate charges last month, Duncan Hunter, of California, on charges that included spending campaign funds for personal expenses, and Chris Collins, of New York, on insider trading.
Both have proclaimed their innocence.
Another blow in Mr Trump’s long-running feud with Mr Sessions, the president’s complaint fits with his pattern of viewing the Department of Justice less as a law enforcement agency and more as a department that is supposed to do his political bidding.
The president – who did not address the specifics of the charges, just the political impact – has previously pressed Mr Sessions to investigate his perceived enemies and has accused him of failing to take control of the Justice Department.
Mr Trump has also repeatedly complained that Mr Sessions recused himself from the Russia investigation.

Some of the issues the president has raised have either already been examined or are being investigated.
The tension between the pair boiled over recently with Mr Sessions punching back, saying he and his department “will not be improperly influenced by political considerations”.
He has made clear to associates he has no intention of leaving his job voluntarily despite Mr Trump’s constant criticism.

What’s a Republican governor to do when his own political party is the problem?
We’re hearing a lot about the divide among Republicans in D.C. over the “repeal and replacement” of Obamacare.
President Donald Trump and the House Republican leadership have a plan. But, conservatives don’t like it. Democrats don’t like it. Interest groups like the AARP are already piling on, and let’s add to the list: Republican governors like Ohio Governor John Kasich and Michigan’s own Rick Snyder.

Alila comes back to the Maldives with the opening of Alila Kothaifaru, a superbly designed resort, in Raa Atoll.
Alila Kothaifaru is Hyatt’s second resort in Maldives
Set on a beautiful island surrounded by an excellent house reef for snorkeling, Alila Kothaifaru Maldives, initially scheduled for opening mid April 2022, finally received its first guests this last May 16th.
Kothaifaru is Alila’s second resort in the Maldives. The hotel brand, well known for its modern design and zen concept previously had Alila Hadahaa Maldives, now Park Hyatt Hadahaa, in Gaafu Alifu Atoll, in the south of the archipelago.
Opening of Alila Kothaifaru. What we know
Hyatt new resort in the Maldives is a private island retreat located in the picturesque Raa Atoll at the northern edge of the Maldives. The all-pool-villa resort offers a refreshing blend of serenity and discovery in a relatively untouched corner of the archipelago renowned for its abundant marine life.
“As countries continue to open up and travel confidence grows, we look forward to guests from all over the world visiting Alila Kothaifaru Maldives for a memorable getaway in what we hope will become the centerpiece of Raa Atoll,” said David Udell, Group President, Asia-Pacific, Hyatt.
“We are delighted to add this beautiful resort in the Maldives to our growing Alila portfolio, with new Alila hotels opening in sought-after destinations such as Suzhou and Shanghai in China and Nha Trang in Vietnam in the future.”
A Soft opening
Alila announces on its website that the resort is open with Beach Villas and guests may enjoy a wide array of dining and recreational services. Finishing works are in progress in limited areas and are slated to be completed by June 30, 2022;
Alila Kothaifairu Design
Alila Kothaifaru remains in the spirit and design of the brand with an elegant minimalist architecture with clear lines created by Singapore-based Studiogoto.
Its design encompasses terraced pavilions, villas and a treetop spa that are carefully integrated into the existing landscape to immerse guests in the picturesque natural surroundings.
The low-rise structures and contemporary interiors feature open-air spaces and a calming palette of island-inspired colors and textures, creating an idyllic setting for complete relaxation and connection with nature.

Alila Kothaifaru is surrounded by Nature’s Wonders
Housed on a 27.6 acre (11.2 hectare) island, Alila Kothaifaru Maldives can be reached via a 45-minute seaplane journey from Malé. As one of the deeper atolls in the archipelago, Raa Atoll offers abundant snorkeling and diving options to discover its rich marine life, from colorful corals to manta rays and sharks.
The resort offers easy access to the famous Hanifaru Bay UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve in Baa Atoll and is close to Vaadhoo Island, one of the best spots to witness the spectacular ‘Sea of Stars’ phenomenon.
Alila Kothaifaru Maldives features white-sand beaches overlooking the infinite expanse of ocean blue, a stunning house reef and lush greenery.
Alila Kothaifaru’s sustainable tourism
From protecting the environment to advancing the local community, Alila Kothaifaru Maldives aims to drive positive impact through innovative and intuitive ways.
In line with their goal to achieve the EarthCheck certification, the world’s leading environmental certification and benchmarking programme for the travel and tourism industry, green initiatives have been implemented from the ground up, including:
- Thoughtful architecture built around the island’s natural landscape, conserving up to 70% of the existing vegetation and the maximum number of native trees
- Use of eco-friendly alternatives to single-use plastics
- Sustainable water consumption practices
- Widening the energy mix to include recyclable energy
- Waste management measures including converting paper products and vegetable waste into fertiliser and the use of an on-site bottle crusher and garbage compactor
A Private Island Sanctuary
Alila Kothaifaru Maldives offers 80 pool villas, of which 44 are along the beach and 36 are perched overwater with direct access to the sea.
Guests can unwind in these understated, sophisticated spaces that balance privacy with openness to the outdoors. Each villa comes with a private pool and sun deck where guests can bask in picture-perfect views and enjoy personalized service whether they are staying steps from the beach or above the turquoise lagoon.
The Sunrise Beach Villas offer early birds captivating views to start their day alongside quick access to the resort’s main facilities such as the infinity pool, Play Alila kids’ club, Seasalt restaurant and Mirus Bar.
Restaurants and Bars
Alila Kothaifaru Maldives offers a delightful variety of culinary experiences and bars including :
Seasalt, the resort’s beachside all-day dining restaurant with an ocean view, serves coastal Mediterranean cuisine with Middle Eastern influences. Not to be missed are the restaurant’s signature salt-baked fish dishes.
A spectacular Maldivian sunset alongside a refreshing selection of cocktails at Mirus Bar inspired by the region’s former spice trade routes and concocted with ingredients from the resort’s own herb garden.
Umami offers Japanese-inspired menus prepared in a teppan theater with a premium selection of organically grown vegetables, Wagyu beef and sustainably sourced fish and seafood. The adjourning Yakitori Bar is the place to be to indulge in sundowners, from Asian-inspired craft cocktails and mocktails to fine Japanese sakes and spirits, amidst delicious smoky aromas from a robata grill.
Pibati Café provides light bites and comfort food that are convenient for grab-and-go en route to an excursion.
Guests dreaming of an ultimate castaway experience can set sail in a traditional Maldivian dhoni on a two to three-hour journey around the Raa Atoll before returning to the resort’s private sandbank, The Shack, a secluded spot for a gourmet picnic, a sunset barbecue or a romantic candlelit dinner under the stars.
The resort Spa : A Haven for Relaxation
Nestled just above the treetops, Spa Alila features four double treatment suites, all with a private bathroom, shower and a floor-to-ceiling window with verdant views. Guests can indulge in rejuvenating treatments and beauty rituals that put a contemporary spin on ancient healing techniques and draw on the benefits of natural ingredients. Guests can also enjoy a complimentary daily yoga session in a tranquil outdoor space within the spa. The resort also offers a 24-hour fitness center and a beachfront infinity pool.
Leisure and Activities
Alila Kothaifaru boasts a wide range of water activities and excursions organized through the expert marine guides at the resort’s Water Sports and Dive Center.
Young guests also have their own fun space with Play Alila, a dedicated play and learning space for kids and teens to keep them entertained with toys, games and fun, supervised indoor and outdoor activities.
From barefoot chic to elegant sophistication, couples can tie the knot or renew their vows with an enchanting celebration set in tropical splendor, whether on a pristine palm-fringed beach with the glistening ocean as a backdrop or on the private sandbank at sunset followed by a bespoke dinner under the stars.
“We are honored to welcome guests to one of the world’s most blissful destinations and we look forward to sharing with them the awe-inspiring nature that surrounds us,” said Alexandre Glauser, general manager, Alila Kothaifaru Maldives.
“Here at our all-pool-villa sanctuary, guests can unwind in peaceful seclusion with charming views while our gracious hosts deliver personalized experiences leading to unique moments and treasured memories.”

Developing a quality sleep schedule for children is important, especially before the new school year begins. With less than a month before school is back in session, it is not too early to start implementing new sleep practices to prepare your children for the upcoming school year.
While most parents realize the value of their children getting a good night’s sleep, the National Sleep Foundation’s 2014 annual Sleep in America poll found that many children are not getting the amount they need on school nights.
Sleep guidelines from the National Heart, Blood and Lung institute recommend that school-aged children get at least 10 hours a sleep a night.
The National Sleep Foundation offers the following sleep tips to improve children’s sleep:
- Make sleep a priority in your family’s busy schedule.
- Set appropriate and consistent bedtimes for yourself and your children and stick to those bedtimes.
- Know how your child is using electronics in the bedroom. Create a plan for appropriate use at night and set boundaries about use before and after bedtime.
- Educate yourself and your child on how light from electronic device screens can interfere with sleep.
- Talk to your child about the importance of sleep for health and well-being.
- Remember that you are a role model to your child; set a good example.
- Create a sleep-supportive bedroom and home environment, dimming the lights prior to bedtime and controlling the temperature (in most cases, temperatures above 75 degrees Fahrenheit and below 54 degrees will disrupt sleep).
- Try to encourage activities such as reading or listening to music before bedtime instead of watching TV, playing video games or surfing the web.
- Make sure children’s activities, including homework, can be completed without interfering with bedtimes.
- About two weeks before school starts, help your child return to a school-appropriate sleep schedule. Set an incrementally earlier bedtime each night, and an incrementally earlier wake-up time each morning, all while making sure he or she gets the right amount of sleep for his or her age group.
- Once school starts, talk to your child’s teacher(s) about your child’s alertness during the day. Let your child’s teacher(s) know that you want to be made aware of any reports of your child falling asleep in school.
If you or a loved one has sleep issues, Carroll Hospital Center’s Sleep Disorders Center may be able to help. Please call 410-871-7170 for more information.

Climate Shocks, ICT, and Policy Resilience in Different Political Systems Open Access
Downloadable ContentDownload PDF View PDF in Browser Report an accessibility issue with this item
This thesis examines how the number of veto points and level of information communication technology (ICT) in different political systems influences policy resilience to extreme weather events, or climate shocks. Using the framework of punctuated equilibria advanced by Baumgartner and Jones, and Risse’s theory of areas of limited statehood in policy fields, we seek to learn if climate shocks can serve as “focusing events” that alter or intensify the terms and direction of climate change policy. Meanwhile, we examine if the number of veto points in a state’s political system affects its consolidation of statehood within its environmental field, or ability to create and implement climate change-focused policies, and if ICT may help fill some of these gaps in governance capacity. We conclude that, while high levels of ICT is helpful in disaster response and recovery during and after a climate shock, it may actually serve as a barrier to policy resilience by reducing the “shock value” of the climate shock to serve as a focusing event. Likewise, we conclude that states with lower numbers of veto points are more policy responsive to climate shocks.
