Okay, so that’s the pgpd out of the way. I loved doing all the reading for mine but am a bit unhappy with the end result. I feel like I’ve learned lots though. And it’s got me wanting to read more theory. I’ve also begun to think that writing this blog is becoming very important in the process of actualising my thoughts and taking them from vague mumblings toward genuine orientation. So, I’ve found myself sitting with the seeds of a few thoughts/questions that I want to write down here, so I can see how they look on paper (sorry, screen) as much as anything. Some might either be obvious or plain wrong, but I want to get a bit more of a grasp of how these things fit together.
Nicholas Bourriaud argues that modernism never died, it just shifted shape and found a new dream. Read this PDF to get a fuller idea. It’s a decent chunk of his very useful, if slightly full of itself book Relational Aesthetics.

Andy asked us all to go to see the Tony Oursler exhbition at the Lisson Gallery. I wasn’t that impressed by the show, but it did deal with a crucial thing regarding digital art, namely taking something that exists as digital bits on a disc and turning that into a real, viewable artwork in real space. Oursler does this by projecting looped film on to sculpted objects, like ears, or patchwork dolls.

We have a peach tree in our backyard, which produced a bumper crop of fresh peaches this year! About 75% of the peaches we harvested are pictured below.
Brad also went to a local camp last week, where he was permitted to pick a tree covered in wild plums. About 25% of the plums he harvested are pictured below. Our kids love to eat fresh fruit, and Brad likes to freeze them for smoothies.
What fresh fruit have you harvested this year? What do you like to do with your fresh fruit?

Usually the waves break, reach a point on the shore and then recede all pretty much over the same portion of beach – possibly over 3 meters of sand.

(Bloomberg) — Salomon Melgen, the Florida eye doctor whose gifts and campaign contributions led to the indictment of U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, was charged with 76 counts of health care fraud and related offenses.
Melgen submitted false claims, created fraudulent entries on patient medical charts and falsely diagnosed patients to bill for unnecessary tests and procedures, Miami U.S. Attorney Wifredo Ferrer said Tuesday in a statement.
Menendez was indicted on corruption charges after accepting almost $1 million in gifts and campaign donations from Melgen. Prosecutors accuse the New Jersey Democrat of trying to help Melgen’s personal and business interests in exchange.
Menendez and Melgen, both 61, were charged in that case in Newark, New Jersey, with bribery and honest services fraud, among other allegations. Menendez was also charged with making false statements in the indictment made public April 1. Both have pleaded not guilty and are scheduled to face trial July 13.
Melgen sought Menendez’s help after the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) ruled he had overbilled Medicare by $8.9 million for one drug, Lucentis, in 2007 and 2008, according to earlier statements by Menendez’s office.
Melgen is scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday in federal court in West Palm Beach on the Medicare fraud charges in the new case.
He is accused of billing Medicare for more than $190 million from January 2008 to December 2013, for which he was reimbursed and paid, through his company, Vitreo Retinal Consultants of the Palm Beaches, more than $105 million. A substantial portion of the reimbursements were obtained through fraudulent billing, prosecutors said.

Here's the introduction to the interview, by Sean Hood:
"Last year I interviewed Amazon Studios Director, Roy Price, about Amazon's commitment to "develop movies in a new way" (see: Amazon Studios: An Interview with Roy Price.) At that time there was still a lot of skepticism among screenwriters about Amazon's option policy, their relationship with the WGA, and the exposure of scripts (and ideas) to the public after uploading.
Never the less, the experience of writers and filmmakers who won prizes and entered the Amazon development and test-film process was mostly positive (see: An Amazon Studios Screenwriter.) What I found interesting about Amazon was that they were willing to adjust their policies and the process based on feedback from the writers and filmmakers themselves, which struck me as unique in the closed world of Hollywood studios and production companies.
A week ago, Amazon announced additional changes to address writers' concerns, and as a result, "Amazon Studios 2.0" (as one blogger put it) has been met with cautious enthusiasm by several of its most prominent critics (Read the reaction of The Bitter Script Reader, and listen to John August's Podcast.)
So once again, I spoke with Amazon Studios head Roy Price to gain a little insight on the studio's intentions..."

Physicists at the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona have designed and created in the laboratory the first experimental wormhole that can connect two regions of space magnetically. The tunnel transfers the magnetic field from one point to the other while keeping it undetectable.
The researchers used metamaterials and metasurfaces to build the tunnel, so that the source magnetic field, such as a magnet or an electromagnet, appears at the other end of the wormhole as an isolated magnetic monopole. This result is strange enough in itself, as magnetic monopoles (magnets with only one pole, whether north or south) do not exist in nature. The overall effect is that of a magnetic field that appears to travel from one point to another through a dimension that lies outside the conventional three dimensions.
The wormhole in the experiment is a sphere made of different layers: an external layer with a ferromagnetic surface, a second inner layer, made of superconducting material, and a ferromagnetic sheet rolled into a cylinder that crosses the sphere from one end to the other. The sphere is made in such a way as to be magnetically undetectable – invisible, in magnetic field terms – from the exterior.
The magnetic wormhole is an analogy of gravitational ones, as it “changes the topology of space, as if the inner region has been magnetically erased from space”, explains Alvar Sanchez, the lead researcher.
These same researchers had already built a magnetic fiber in 2014: a device capable of transporting the magnetic field from one end to the other.
The breakthrough is a step forward towards possible applications in which magnetic fields are used, such as medicine. The technology could, for example, increase patients’ comfort by distancing them from the detectors when having MRI scans in hospital, or allow MRI images of different parts of the body to be obtained simultaneously.

Why is Vaping Bad For Your Health?
Why is Vaping Bad for YOUR WELLBEING? Many people don’t realize why vaporizing your cigarettes is harmful to your health. When you inhale vapors straight into your lungs without filtering them or breaking apart into smaller particles, you are putting yourself at risk for serious health problems such as Lung Cancer and Carcinoma. By the time you finish reading this article it is possible Element Vape to avoid any bad ramifications of vapes in your daily life.
First of all, when you use an electronic cigarette, you’re inhaling vaporized nicotine. The vapor is hot, sticky, and has a very strong smell. That smell is what you notice first, accompanied by the burning and wheezing that will result from you lungs as you breathe. The amount of time that you will take to feel the effects of smoking cigarettes has to do with the number of aerosolization your taking in.
You should always start by using a water-based e-juice. There are various flavors in the marketplace today, so I encourage one to get one of these few out before you make your purchase. You need to look for a smooth tasting e-juice with a moderate amount of nicotine. If you use an aerosol e-liquid, you’ll quickly reach your nicotine quota that may trigger one to start puffing away. As you breathe through your mouth, you will go through the same effects from smoking.
So, how come vaporizing bad for your oral health? Because you are taking in more smoke during your lungs than you would during your mouth. Smoke gets trapped in your lungs and may be sucked into your lungs by constantly inhaling through your mouth. Inhaling deeply could cause nasty coughs and even pneumonia if it isn’t taken care of properly.
Additionally, there are some rare cases where people have had problems with their livers when consuming vaporized cigarettes. These rare occurrences are usually due to e-juices with high concentrations of alcohol or mold. Keep in mind that while you are exhaling, the skin tightening and is pulled into your lungs and that can cause you issues with certain diseases like liver cirrhosis. If you suspect that this is the reason why you aren’t feeling well, stop smoking.
When you decide to quit smoking, take into account the health benefits. You will have less risk of getting cancer along with other cancers related to tobacco as you won’t have any contact with it after you quit smoking. The same applies to cardiovascular problems. Nicotine is really a toxin that increases your heart risk by using it over time.
A recently available study found that there are strong traces of nicotine in non-smoker’s lung tissue. Which means that even non-smokers can potentially be putting themselves at risk. That’s why is it important to avoid vaporizing anything, even if you are just drinking juice. If you don’t think that you can quit smoking without your mouth or nose getting contaminated, then make sure that you use an electric nicotine product.
How come vaporizing health risks so serious? It’s not only bad for your lungs however your overall health. Not forgetting the millions of heart disease deaths that happen around the world each year. With all of these reasons in addition to the many scientific studies which are coming out every day, you can easily understand why it is best to not smoke at all than to expose yourself to secondhand smoke.
However, there are still many people that say that there surely is nothing wrong with smoking when you are using electric cigarettes. Some would say that the only difference is that you aren’t inhaling smoke. To put it frankly, there are numerous differences between traditional cigarettes and the newer kinds. If you want to truly enjoy each of the great great things about traditional cigarettes, you should stay away from the flavored ones. They offer some flavor that you probably won’t find in your neighborhood store.
As for why is vaporizing harmful to you, there is proof showing that it definitely does contain some cancer-causing chemicals by means of tar and toxic heavy metals. Tar and heavy metals are thought to cause cancer in your body if you inhale them. That’s why it is important to avoid the flavored models when you decide whether or not to give up smoking. Even if you just like the taste of those traditional cigarettes, you want to not be inhaling them.
If you feel that you don’t desire to deal with the health ramifications of smoking tobacco, then you should start considering an alternative solution to smoke. This means that you will definitely have to completely change your lifestyle. The easiest way to get this done is to begin using an herbal vaporizer that you may find online or at a local store. By doing so, you won’t suffer from the nasty taste of traditional cigarettes. Additionally, you will not be exposing yourself to all of the other unhealthy ramifications of smoking tobacco.

Komani residents have expressed discontentment over the latest service delivery developments that proved the Enoch Mgijima Local Municipality (EMLM) paving Bells Road, where the headquarters of the district municipality is located.
Residents criticised the local authority for priorisiting a “hardly used” road over routes people regularly used to get to work, including the ones in residential areas.
The decaying Bells Road rehabilitation project began on Tuesday, and entails the paving of the road to improve its surface quality and outlook, and the repairing of the concrete kerbs.
The R4m project funded by the Chris Hani District Municipality (CHDM) also seeks to improve the function of the storm water drainage system in the area.
EMLM spokesperson Lonwabo Kowa indicated the 1.8km road stretch would be resurfaced, stabilised and compacted.
“The four-month project will be implemented in phases; the first one will cover the stretch from Griffiths Street and cover a portion of Wodehouse, up to the traffic lights on Bells Road. The second phase will start from the Bells Road traffic lights through to New Rest residential area, and up to where it joins Victoria Road.
He said the improved road would improve business and residential prospects, while also providing smooth driving for motorists.
“The municipality will continue to work on rehabilitating its roads and streets as clearly stated in its adopted Integrated Development Plan (IDP) and budget. The project is funded by CHDM, we are just providing project management skills and expertise from our staff complement.”
Kowa indicated the project was structured to encourage community participation and skills development, as over 20 local people that include the youth and women were recruited to work for the duration of the project through the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP).
However, the news of the refurbishment of Bells Road was not received well by Komani residents who said the local authority failed in all aspects of service delivery as it struggled to conclude its pothole-filling project.
The backlashing comments by irate residents who lambasted the municipality were posted on the institution’s Facebook page, with some campaigning for the ANC to be voted out of power in the next year’s local government elections.
Mazu KaMapete said both the district and local municipalities were a joke for only recruiting 20 people when hundreds of Komani youth were unemployed.
“You have no shame, we will remember all this when we are at the ballot box come 2021.”
“Woaw wait, is this the road where the municipal offices are? Is it the road you [decided to] start with in all of Komani? Of all the bad roads in this town you start with the one which is better than most,” asked Yonelani Qinisile.
Sammy Mamdlane said all roads and streets in Komani had potholes and that Bells Road was not the worst of them all.
“There are huge potholes on Green Street heading towards Man Pub and Braai from Midas, going into Westbourne that need to be fixed.”
Responding to why the road was prioritised over other dilapidated ones, Kowa said it was one of the “most used” stretches of road as it had a lot of business activity.
“The road was decaying and in a bad state.There are other known roads that are in a poor state but can only be repaired when funds are available.”
CHDM spokesperson Thobeka Mqamelo said CHDM recently approved innovative projects that would be implemented in various municipalities under it, which include the refurbishment of parts of Wodehouse Street and Bells Road.
“To kick-start the implementation, we have partnered with EMLM and have embarked on upgrading the two stretches of road. To this effect, council approved a budget of R4m towards its implementation which will be utilised for required material, machinery and stipends for EPWP workers.”

Surprising as it might be, anyone can invest in the oil market to make a profit. Indeed, the development of online trading platforms has allowed individuals to use their savings to speculate on rising or falling oil prices. To this end, simply choose your method of trading between theApex Finance's offered by Forex brokers, which are specifically designed for beginners. Invest-oil.co.uk makes a point to explain how these two trading tools work and how best to use them for profit.
Traded oil has many advantages compared to other popular assets such as for example stocks. Speculating with oil only requires some basic technical and fundamental analysis of the market. Terms seem complicated? Not to worry! The website invest-oil.co.uk was specifically created to assist investors in understanding the rules of investing in black gold and thereby enable them to easily gain access to this opportunity. You will have the upper hand to quickly make profits and earn money simply through oil price changes.
Speculate online on the price of black gold on the rise or on the fall, you should rely on the advice of this site devoted to black gold trading. Indeed, you will find explanations of the different factors driving prices up or down, as well as news on this explosive market. This site covers all the basics of this market and speculation techniques, explained in a simple and illustrated manner for better understanding. The only thing left to do will be to implement your strategy.
As an individual, the best method available for trading in oil is through the use of an online trading platform that specialises inApex Finance's. You will find this service widely available among brokers that enable you, through the use ofApex Finance's, to speculate on oil and other assets such as shares and stock market indices or other commodities such as gold. The operation ofApex Finance's could not be simpler and more convenient for the use of anyone that wishes to invest in the oil market without having any previous experience in trading. It simply requires that you take a position on the rise or the fall of the oil price at a given moment and close your position when the foreseen profits are reached or when you wish to cut your losses.
You have no doubt noticed that, since 2014, the oil prices have fallen greatly. After approaching $100 per barrel they finally lost nearly 50% of their value. But, as with all financial markets, the oil market is governed by cycles alternating between rising and falling trends. Therefore, the analysts predict a new rising trend shortly that may enable investors to achieve substantial profits. It is therefore judicious to closely monitor the emergence of this new trend to take position over the long term, or take position now using a short term cover.
As we have just seen, the oil sector analysts expect a new rise in the price per barrel of oil in the coming months or years. It may therefore be beneficial to invest in oil over the long term. But, while waiting for this trend to begin, the price per barrel may still experience a further fall. To cover any eventual losses during this period, you may opt for a strategy that aims to take short parallel positions to sell with a strong leverage effect of which the profits enable you to keep your long position open until the rising objective is reached.
To trade in oil online usingApex Finance's it is strongly recommended to use data from both technical and fundamental analysis. Your technical analysis can be completed using comprehensive customised charts that are available through your broker on the trading platform upon which you can display different indicators. Concerning fundamental analysis, this consists of monitoring and analysing the factors and exterior events that may influence the oil price. These of course include data on the supply and demand of oil throughout the world as well as other indicators. For example, the American oil stocks are carefully monitored by traders. You will find them each week in the economic calendar as they are published every Wednesday. These stocks give you concrete information on the demand and consumer levels of oil. Large stocks have a tendency to lower the price of oil and vice versa. Finally, the U.S. Dollar rate can also influence the oil price as an advantageous exchange rate can encourage buyers to invest in the commodity which is quoted in this currency.

On Monday 29 July 2013, fees were introduced in the employment tribunals and Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT). All claimants in employment tribunal claims brought on or after 29 July 2013 (and appeals to the EAT) must now pay a fee to issue a claim and to proceed to hearing.
In this article, we explain the changes and we report on the judicial review challenges to the changes which have been lodged by UNISON in England and Fox & Partners in Scotland.
The case for introducing fees
The introduction of fees in the employment tribunals has been highly controversial, given that the principle of free access to justice for aggrieved employees and workers has not been changed since the introduction of the employment tribunal system in 1960.
The Government has stated that the aim of introducing fees is to transfer some of the approximate £74 million cost of running the employment tribunals and EAT from the taxpayer to those using the system who can afford to pay.
Employers will no doubt welcome any changes which may help to reduce frivolous or weak claims, but many believe that charging fees will disproportionately affect those who cannot afford to bring a claim, regardless of the strength of their case.
The Government has conceded that the introduction of fees may have the effect of deterring some claimants from bringing a claim, but it insists that the policy is not designed to reduce claims, only to transfer some of the cost from taxpayers. However, whilst the Civil Fee Remission scheme will enable low-earners and those in receipt of state benefits such as Jobseekers Allowance to obtain a full or partial waiver of fees, an individual with no income but as little as £3,000 in savings would be liable to pay the fee.
Judicial Review Challenge
Two judicial reviews of the new employment tribunal fees regime are currently progressing through the courts. UNISON and Scottish law firm Fox and Partners have both applied for judicial review of the introduction of fees. If either challenge is successful it will mean that fees across the whole of the UK would be declared unlawful. UNISON argues that fees would make it difficult to exercise individual rights conferred by EU law. It also argues that fees are discriminatory because they will disproportionately affect women on “average incomes” who will not be entitled to fee remissions. The union also submits that there has been no assessment of the potential adverse effect of introducing fees in relation to the proportions of claims brought by individuals with protected characteristics. On 29 July 2013, the application was given permission to proceed and it is due to be heard in the High Court in England in October.
Fox and Partners lodged their application in the Court of Session in Scotland. The firm argues that the introduction of fees will place unfair and potentially disproportionate financial burdens on employees. The full hearing will also take place in October and the Government has agreed that if the fees regime is found to be unlawful, all fees across Great Britain will be repaid with interest.
The fee structure
Pending the judicial review outcome, the new fee regime applies to all claims lodged on or after 29 July 2013. The fees are paid in two stages, an ‘issue fee’ payable on submitting the claim (or appeal) and a ‘hearing fee’ payable prior to the full hearing.
The level of the fee will depend on whether the claim is Type A or Type B. Type A claims comprise straightforward, lower value claims such as sums due on termination of employment (unpaid wages, redundancy payments and payments in lieu of notice). Type B claims comprise all other claims, including unfair dismissal, discrimination, equal pay and whistleblowing.
The fees for single claimants are as follows:
Tribunals will have the power (but not an obligation) to order an unsuccessful party to reimburse fees paid by the successful party. So it will cost an employee, who claims they have been unfairly dismissed or discriminated against, £1,180 to pursue their case through to a full hearing (subject to any application of the remission scheme). Different fees apply to group actions, ranging from issue fees of £320 to £1500.
The fee remission scheme currently allows claimants either a full or partial remission, based on their receipt of certain benefits, or their (and their partner’s) gross annual income, or their (and their partner’s) monthly disposable income. However, on 7 October 2013 a new eligibility test will be introduced based on receipt of certain benefits, a monthly income test, and a new disposable capital test. In short, those under 61 with a disposable household capital of between £3,000 and £8,000 will be required to spend up to one third of their disposable capital on fees, even if they are out of work.
The vast majority of trade unions oppose the fees, complaining that they are unjust when those bringing claims are likely to be out of work. UNISON and Unite have indicated that they will fund fees for their members, which may result in membership of a union becoming a more attractive option.
Only time will tell if the introduction of fees is an effective way of weeding out frivolous claims. There are those who believe a better way of reducing weak claims is to change the system for recovery of legal costs. In employment tribunals, costs awards are very much the exception rather than the rule, in contrast to the civil courts where, generally speaking, the unsuccessful party pays the winner’s costs. According to the last set of annual statistics, costs were only awarded in eight per cent. of tribunal cases.

The Food and Drug Administration warned Americans Monday of reports of a rare immune system disorder among people who got the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
The disorder is called Guillain-Barre syndrome. It occurs when the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks some of its nerve cells. Guillain-Barre syndrome can be triggered by a number of infections, including flu, cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Zika virus. But there have been rare cases in which people develop the disorder days or weeks after receiving certain vaccines.
Guillain-Barre syndrome can causes muscle weakness, and paralysis in some cases. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated 3,000 to 6,000 people develop the syndrome each year.
The FDA and the CDC reviewed about 100 reports of people developing the syndrome after receiving the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. Most cases were reported in men 50 years and older, usually within 42 days of receiving the vaccination. The FDA said almost all of were hospitalized and one person died. 12.8 million doses of the J&J vaccine have been administered in the U.S.
The new warning will be included in pamphlets given to people getting the J&J shot. According to the FDA, people should seek medical attention if they experience any symptoms, including tingling sensations, trouble walking and double vision.
Johnson & Johnson said in a statement it has been discussing the reports with the FDA and other health regulators around the world. “We strongly support raising awareness of the signs and symptoms of rare events to ensure they can be quickly identified and effectively treated,” the statement went onto say.
To date, the CDC says the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines show no risk of the disorder after more than 320 million doses have been administered. I will ask a panel of outside vaccine experts to review the possible side effect at an upcoming meeting.

Strong End to Fiscal Year for Disney
The wide-moat firm is looking ahead to 2019 with the launch of its streaming service and completing the Fox deal.
Neil Macker: Disney reported a strong end to is fiscal 2018, as the quarter beat on both revenue and EBITDA. While the strong end to the year was positive, the real key for the company will be fiscal 2019 and 2020, the set up of not only its streaming service, but the closing of its acquisition to the Fox Media assets.
Disney now announced that the name of the streaming service will be Disney+, a slightly uninventive name, but one that rings true with its other OTT services, ESPN+. The real key for the company will be creating more original content for the service. The company announced the launch of a second Star Wars TV series, along with a Marvel character series based on Loki. We expect more original content based on the current IP at movies, to come to the service.
Neil Macker does not own shares in any of the securities mentioned above. Find out about Morningstar’s editorial policies.

This talk explored the ways to use the routine, repetitive practice of aiming attention at the beginning of the inbreath (vitakka [wee-tah-kah] in Pali), and maintaining investigative awareness of the sensations noted during the duration of the inbreath (vicara [wee-chah-rah] in Pali), then repeating this for the outbreath. This practice cultivates stability of focus (samadhi [sah-mah-dee] in Pali) and tranquility (passadhi [pah-sah-dee] in Pali). These qualities of stable, calm attention to the emergence of mental phenomena is core to the practice of insight into the nature of experience (vipassana [vee-pah-sah-nah] in Pali). This was followed by discussion of the night’s topic.
Here are the notes prepared for this talk: Cultivating Samadhi And Passadhi
During this talk, reference was made to a guided meditation recorded earlier that day entitled “Investigating The Breath”, which is also part of this post.

Yes, economy is in a down-turn. But yet some of the most exciting opportunities arise for internet related business’.
I have been an Entrepreneur long enough to see recessions come and go, and I think we still have seen a small part of the impact that Internet brings, and that this recession will not impact it much over the long run (also I think even though this is a major economic down-turn, it’s characteristics can not be compared to the Great Depressions, mainly because the economy is a lot more Global today, which means faster impact, wider spread, but also quicker recovery).
Comparisons between the Internet and the railroad boom of the late 19th and early 20th century in the US, often lack some major differences, the Internet impact is global, and in a time where the economy is more global than ever. Besides the extent of change is beyond “transportation”, it’s instant, holds a global reach, and the only real comparison that holds relevance is how the invention of the printing press changed the world.
Kind of odd “preaching” the Internet significance today, as it seems evident to most people, but I am certain that the extent of the impact the Internet have is not that evident yet, there is a lot more to come.

Researching no Sugar diets
May 21, 2016
Sugar is in everything. Most processed foods have sugar added. Even savory foods are filled with sugar. Sugar is cheap and it adds a ton of flavor.
- Is this a temporary challenge that sounds fun or something I could see myself continuing after 30 days?
- What about eating out? It seems like you can’t even have most dressings. Would I have to order a salad with olive oil and vinegar? I could probably have a steak though… mmm :)
- What about my kids? I don’t want them to have to stick 100% with this but I also don’t want to cook 2 meals.
- Is sugar all that bad for my body. If I eat whole foods isn’t that enough?

Will the things we do when we’re young come back to haunt us in the future? Here are some common worries...
I slept around
Frequent sex, whether with one partner or many,many, doesn’t damage your body (assuming you’re not doing anything too “out there”). But you do put yourself at risk of sexually transmitted diseases. And the more partners a woman has, the higher the chance of getting HPV (human papillomavirus), which could lead to cervical cancer. Keep having smears until 65—after that, the risk is lower.
The bad news about marijuana smoke is that it contains 50 to 70 per cent more carcinogenic hydrocarbons than tobacco smoke. Meanwhile, cigarettes kill one out of every two people who smoke them regularly. The good news? Within a year of quitting your risk of a smoking-related heart attack is halved, and within ten years your risk of dying from lung cancer halves.
I lived in a polluted area
Children’s lungs are more prone to damage from air pollution than an adult’s. One study shows that breathing in polluted air for several years can raise your lung-cancer risk by 25 per cent and be as harmful as passive smoking. But by leading a healthier lifestyle now, you can definitely help ward off disease.
I spent too much time in the sun
Nearly 80 per cent of lifetime sun damage occurs before the age of 18. The more sun exposure you had, the more likely you are to have wrinkles, freckles and other skin discolourations later in life. Even worse is your heightened risk of skin cancer. Plus, your chances of getting melanoma go up by 75 per cent if you used tanning beds before you were 35. You can’t repair that damage, but if you’re more careful from now on about covering up outdoors and using sunscreen, you’ll cut your odds of skin cancer.
I got drunk a lot
Even if your youthful drinking days are behind you, alcohol’s effect on your health could linger on. In one study, former heavy drinkers reported more depression, heart problems, chronic bronchitis and diabetes after the age of 40 than current social drinkers. But there’s no need to give up hope—healthy living helps fix the damage. In one study, former heavy drinkers saw their risk of cancer of the oesophagus drop to normal over a decade.

Civil rights groups release a statement criticizing the movement against high-stakes testings. An education advocacy group release a response, saying the civil rights groups are wrong. Read them both.
The second in a series by teachers about the value of allowing students to struggle in class: 'Students have to know that you’re going to catch them before they’re willing to take a leap. They have to struggle to learn something meaningful, and learning to overcome struggle is the most valuable thing I can teach them.'
Here's what the student newspaper, the Harvard Crimson, found.
Some thoughts about teacher, during Teacher Appreciation Week, and on National Teacher Day.
There are schools that have rejected the high-stakes culture of fear that has come to define American education in favor of core values that emphasize more holistic goals such as intellectual and creative growth.
'We are expecting more from children at an earlier age, yet children are less prepared to learn than ever before.' Here's why.
Opt out is far bigger than a test refusal event.
And its impact on student achievement.
A look at the threats -- and whether the warnings have any bite.
A teacher examines Common Core test questions after being trained in how to score the tests. Then she asks: 'What do I do as a teacher when asked to perform an act that goes against my conscience?

America’s largest gaming company with some 50 gambling halls either owned or managed throughout the North American continent experienced improved revenues during the fourth quarter that ended on Dec. 31, but, weighed down by huge impairment charges, Caesars Entertainment Corp. (CZR) reported a massive lost.
After applying some $2 billion in one-time charges, the company said it lost $1.76 billion or $12.83 per share. This compared to the previous year when the loss was $480.3 million or $3.84 per share.
Revenues, helped by improved numbers recorded on the Las Vegas Strip, moved higher by 3 percent to $2.08 billion from last year’s $2.01 billion.
Looking at the full fiscal year, the company said the loss was $2.9 billion from the previous $1.5 billion.
But all was not gloom and doom as company officials are looking forward to a major investment made in The Quad, across the street from its flagship, Caesars Palace, on the property formerly known as the Imperial Palace.
Featured in the develoment will be the Linq, a $550 million project that includes what the company describes as “the world’s largest Ferris Wheel.” The massive structure is expected to begin taking on passengers later this month.
Also opening later this year will be the luxury property called The Cromwell. This new property at the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Flamingo was formerly known as Bill’s Gamblin’ Hall & Saloon.
Having missed joining its neighbors in seeking a casino license in what has become the most lucrative gaming venue in the world, Macau, officials at Caesars hope to make a successful bid for a casino license in Japan when, and if, that country opens the door to expanded gambling later this year.

Labor Market Workshop
TVA Rural Studies
Southern Rural Development Center at Miss. State
The Farm Foundation
U.S.D.A.'s Economic Research Service
In October 1998, a conference was convened by four programs dedicated to providing information
for the betterment of rural areas- the TVA Rural Studies Program at the University of Kentucky,
the Southern Rural Development Center at Mississippi State University, the Farm Foundation, and
the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Economic Research Service. The purpose: to better
understand, and ultimately improve, how socio-economic conditions in the South, in particular the
rural South, affect employment opportunities.
Amid widespread claims that "the South is rising again," the sponsors felt it important to consider
whether that rising tide is in fact lifting all boats. It is not. Some in the South continue to live in
poverty, suffer racial discrimination, and lack adequate education and training. Consequently, those
Southerners fare poorly in the current labor market and are positioned poorly for future labor
markets. Many of those Southerners live in the region's rural areas, places that MDC, Inc. refers to
as "shadows in the Sunbelt." Indeed, MDC, Inc. and others have made the case, and we support it,
that there are two Souths - one prospering and ready, another lagging and vulnerable.
So, for two days some of the country's foremost minds in rural development presented and
discussed findings on a wide range of issues pertinent to the rural South and its workforce. This
report entitled "Ready or Not? The Rural South and Its Workforce" (1.3Mb PDF) is an attempt to synthesize the
findings and discussions. The underlying analysis, however, belongs to those experts.

Abuse or an uncertain future. This is Laurel Lee Page’s choice when she is faced with an unplanned pregnancy at 19. Born into a broken family, all she has ever known is guilt and shame. No matter what she does or who she meets, Laurel appears to be living a condemned life but she is determined to find independence and freedom in spite of her family’s legacy of hatred and self-contempt. Can Laurel see that she is in a powerful position, poised to break the cycle of abuse? Set in Southern California during the tumultuous 1960s era, Burnt Edges is based on true events and proves that strength can be found even in the most horrific situations.
“This is a beautifully written story. There are so many lovely, poetic descriptions woven effortlessly into a story that is not always pretty. They stand out without jarring from the narrative or seeming forced. It makes some of the more unlovely aspects of Laurel’s life easier to take.
I don’t know if it was intentional or not on the part of the author, but the narrative style feels one step removed from the actual events. As if we are viewing the action through Laurel’s memories and she’s slightly afraid to get too close. And with good reason. But instead of making the story less intimate, it gives Laurel a kind of gentle strength that is lovely to read. It doesn’t shy away from anything but lends the entire book an air of hopefulness that just works.
The raw yet beautiful language. Highly recommend.”

Scott Petty, Chief Technology Officer, Vodafone UK, explains why investing in Vodafone's network is so important if we're to create the digitally connected future many want.
At Vodafone, we watch our mobile network stats like a hawk.
What are the services our customers are using most? What time is our network at its busiest? How much does the amount of data our customers use change over time?
These stats define our plan for how much we invest in our network. And as a healthy digital economy is crucial to our working and social lives, we know we need to keep investing to create a better, more connected future for all.
I’ve seen phenomenal growth in mobile network data usage over the last 20-plus years. From a handful of devices getting connection with a few kilobits per second, to customers carrying multiple connected products and downloading 4K movies at hundreds of megabits per second.
But while this growth has been impressive, it’s nothing to what is coming.
What’s possible for our customers looks like magic. But it’s not. It’s brilliant engineering and the result of constant investment
I’ve never seen accelerating growth quite like the numbers we’re seeing right now. Our data usage figures are rising week on week, and when 5G starts to shift from early adopters to the mainstream, this growth will only accelerate.
This means we’re in a constant programme of improvement, upgrading capacity on existing sites, adding new sites, deploying 5G for more bandwidth, and optimising our network.
When you add in the government-imposed requirement to change suppliers, and the drive to minimise the environmental impact of our network, the investment challenge is significant.
The mobile industry is like no other in the way it demands constant investment, simply to maintain the status quo.
Customers expect a data connection that always gives them what they want, and they don’t want to compromise. And to ensure the experience is constantly improving in line with the way we use connectivity, investments must not just continue but increase.
A recent report by McKinsey suggests the total cost of mobile access networks could increase by up to 300% over the next five years to compensate for data growth and 5G deployment.
5G is set to bring about radical change not only for consumers but for businesses and government organisations, too. It will power remote GP appointments, augmented reality services when you’re out and about, fully integrated transport systems featuring driverless cars, remotely assisted surgery, and a host of other Internet of Things applications we haven’t even dreamt of yet.
All of these new services will be underpinned by the network, further incentivising Vodafone to invest as we strive to support this exciting future.
Rethinking the network
There is no sign of these trends changing, especially with the recent launch of brand new 5G-capable iPhones.
Not only are we consuming vastly more data, the network itself is becoming more complex. The COVID-19 pandemic has drastically altered how we work and socialise, which has forced us to rethink how we deploy and manage a telecoms network. New layers have to be built into the network strategy to ensure greater security and resilience everywhere.
The network delivered what our customers wanted prior to the shift in behaviour, and is performing excellently under the new dynamic. But as this behaviour now looks to be a permanent trend we need additional investment to ensure we deliver the connectivity experience that people want and deserve, however they choose to work and play.
It’s testament to our success that people now take for granted what they can do on a smartphone or smartwatch or via their home Wi-Fi. It’s become the norm to have content and communication with anything and anyone, anywhere.
We still think it’s amazing to be enabling such incredible connected experiences every day. What’s possible for our customers looks like magic.
But it’s not. It’s brilliant engineering and the result of constant investment.

Booking & Review(21)
Highlight of Trip
This gentlemen, Mr. Raewat, has been the highlight of our trip thus far! We canceled an excursion for which we were hearing bad reviews. It was only about 5-6 hours left in the day to make plans for the following day, so I hit the googles to find a group tour for Wat Pho. I came across many sites, but they were either too expensive or didn't have any availability. I finally got to @takemetour_thailand which is almost like an Uber/Lyft service for private tours. It matches you with a guide who is available to show you around. This service included Mr. Raewat as our private tour guide, entry to 2 locations (we paid for the 3rd), transportation, ferry ride, snacks, water, and a full meal!! Mr. Raewat was so kind! He was knowledgable, patient, and very attentive! His daughter's 15th birthday was yesterday, but he was with us clowns sweating it out at the #grandpalace #watarun and #watpho Once we found out it was his daughter's birthday, whom he had actually planned to take out to dinner, I said we have to hurry up and get back so he can be on his way... but with the #Bangkok gridlock, took us 2 hours to drive back to our hotel and he had another 2 hour drive home! I felt really bad about that, but the overall experience was unparalleled.
A very authentic, eye-opening, heart-warming tour with special access to a rural Thai community!
I had a great time on this Takemetour local tour! My local expert -- Pitipong -- was very engaging, friendly, and knowledgable on the tour. He was also very easy to communicate with, spoke good English, and was very flexible with me on the timing and duration of the trip. He had such a positive attitude that I loved -- every time he explained something to me, he would smile with such pride and happiness of being a Thailand native, and being able to share this hidden gem with me. Above all, his hospitality and professionalism were great. He brought me to a local Muslim community that I would never know existed in Bangkok without him and Takemetour's access to it. I got to see how Thai locals really live, shop at their local farmer's market, and visit a "date fruit farm" that was started from one man's love for Thailand. What I loved most was being taken on a boat to the rural community and then experiencing the town like a true local -- it was very raw, authentic, and eye-opening for me. I met an old couple who said they were so happy to have tourists come to their community because they're too old to travel outward these days and they want to share local Thai hospitality with guests and new friends. Overall, it was a humbling experience for me and made me appreciate my life and cultural diversity even more. Thank you to Pitipong and Takemetour for the memorable experience!
Fulfilling fun relaxed
I highly recommend this tour as it shows another side of Bangkok, the guide us very helpful and friendly and the food is just too delicious to describe! Have fun!

I often find myself driving along the highway on my way to work and although it is a road I’ve driven my whole life I still find myself inspired to pull over to soak in the view and take a photo of our lush green fields and blue blue waters. Our colourful and picturesque Island leaves me awestruck on countless occasions; it may be an adventure down a new dirt road to discover a beautiful sunset, stumbling upon a field of bright lupines or sunflowers, or my ultimate favourite – a bright red tilled farmers field against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. I’ve pulled together a list of my Top Ten favourite photos of Prince Edward Island and I hope they inspire you to come explore everything our beautiful Island has to offer.
