Young readers can hunt for clues and solve mysteries along with a comical ghost and his young friend in Watchman William: Ghost Detective.
William was a night watchman during the time of Elizabeth I. Over four hundred years later, his ghost now resides in Hardleigh Manor, a grand estate converted into a hotel. He generally spends his days reading about Sherlock Holmes’ adventures and stealing cookies from the kitchen. With the help of his newfound friend, Thomas, the groundskeeper’s grandson, he takes a page from Sherlock’s book and uses his ghostly powers to solve some very puzzling mysteries around the manor.
The book is divided into five mini-mysteries ranging from a stolen bicycle to a missing bag of money. As the duo investigates, William takes detailed notes about any odd behavior or strange circumstances he observes. The notes are a great way for young readers to recap as they go, helping them piece together the clues so they can help solve the mysteries alongside William and Tommy.
Whether he’s dressing in ladies’ clothing or fumbling with a cell phone, William’s adventures are often riddled with humor that the target audience of seven- to nine year olds will enjoy. Mike Phillips’s illustrations show great expressions and pepper the fun stories with more humor.
On occassion, the stories take small detours away from the main mystery. Readers will get a scene of William having a snack in the park or stealing a croissant from the kitchen. These snippets generally help build the reader’s understanding of the characters and setting, and rarely slow down the story. Generally, the stories are well paced and often end with a fun twist.
The book is written in British English, so there may be occasional terms that young American readers are unfamiliar with, like the “boot” of a car. This isn’t necessarily a detraction, as many children might enjoy learning the new words and phrases.
Though a little more participation from Tommy might be a welcome addition for future Watchman William books, this mystery book for juvenile readers is a fun way to get young minds churning and, most importantly, appreciating reading.

"LOVE IS BLIND"
Samantha plays matchmaker to her mortal friends Gertrude and Kermit in this quirky little episode which, despite its romantic premise, never successfully unfolds into the fuzzy-wuzzy valentine it tries so hard to be.
Everyone loves a Cinderella story: Plain, mousey maiden meets handsome, manly-man Prince who sees her for what she really is underneath and all live happily ever after. Unfortunately, in the guise of Kit Smythe's Gertrude, this Cinderella is so much the drip that it's hard to believe that Kermit the FROG would fall for her, let alone Kermit the MAN (played here by "Batman" himself, Adam West.) Though scriptwriter Roland Wolpert has given the character of Gertrude a decidedly self-pitying mantra, Miss Smythe plays her so down and dowdy that she ends up neglecting to convey ANY feature that would help us to understand exactly WHAT it is Kermit sees in her. Likewise, super-stud Mr. West also fails in the charm department as he spends much of the episode acting rigid and somewhat bad-tempered.
Adding to the uneveness of this episode, scriptwriter Wolpert contributes a particularly questionable character discrepancy involving Samantha: Her seemingly brazen uses of witchcraft (i.e. fixing the vase in front of Darrin with Kermit and Gertrude in the same room and later actually STOPPING the wedding ceremony in mid-progress) aren't so much bothersome in their obvious aim to get cheap laughs as they are in ultimately disrespecting the integrity of Sam's character. She's simply not that rude.
But only the 13th episode in the first season, much must be forgiven: For every goofy special effect (the sped-up roast!) there are absolutely breath-taking shots of Liz, who looks stunning throughout. Dick York must have noticed too for, ironically, in an episode revolving around true love in OTHER characters, it's Liz and Dick who ultimately deliver the goods here with THEIR dynamic on-screen chemistry.

The treaty of Versailles severely restricted the Axis powers (Germany, Italy). Germany was asked to surrender all its captured territories and had to pay a huge amount of money to allies. … This led to the rise of the dictatorship of Adolf Hitler in Germany and Mussolini in Italy.
How did the Treaty of Versailles affect Germany?
The treaty gave some German territories to neighbouring countries and placed other German territories under international supervision. In addition, Germany was stripped of its overseas colonies, its military capabilities were severely restricted, and it was required to pay war reparations to the Allied countries.
What led to the rise of totalitarianism in Europe?
It was caused by the economic disaster and social upheaval of the Russian Civil War.
How did the Treaty of Versailles contribute to the rise of dictators in Europe after WWI?
The aftermath of World War I paved the way for the rise of dictators in Europe. The Treaty of Versailles that concluded World War I placed heavy reparations, or payments, on Germany that the country could not finance. … The Treaty of Versailles also resulted in a weak League of Nations, an international peacemaking body.
What did the Treaty of Versailles do to Germany?
The Versailles Treaty forced Germany to give up territory to Belgium, Czechoslovakia and Poland, return Alsace and Lorraine to France and cede all of its overseas colonies in China, Pacific and Africa to the Allied nations.
Why did the US reject the Treaty of Versailles?
In 1919 the Senate rejected the Treaty of Versailles, which formally ended World War I, in part because President Woodrow Wilson had failed to take senators’ objections to the agreement into consideration. They have made the French treaty subject to the authority of the League, which is not to be tolerated.
What event started WWII?
On September 1, 1939, Hitler invaded Poland from the west; two days later, France and Britain declared war on Germany, beginning World War II. On September 17, Soviet troops invaded Poland from the east.

Which European country turned to totalitarianism during the 1930s?
Germany – The totalitarian state | Britannica.
What caused the rise of dictators after World War I?
Rise of Dictators. The depression in Europe gave rise to the dictators in Spain, Italy and Germany. People lost hope in democracies and wanted a strong leader to correct the problems. Strong leaders promised solutions to the problems in their countries.

Clemençeau – France
Clemenceau was angry that Germany had done so much damage to France and wanted to punish Germany heavily to make them pay.
What is one way the Treaty of Versailles affected Germany after World War I?
The treaty forced Germany to surrender colonies in Africa, Asia and the Pacific; cede territory to other nations like France and Poland; reduce the size of its military; pay war reparations to the Allied countries; and accept guilt for the war.
How did the Treaty of Versailles lead to Hitler’s rise to power?
Economic distress and resentment of the treaty within Germany helped fuel the ultra-nationalist sentiment that led to the rise of Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party, as well as the coming of a World War II just two decades later.
How much land did Germany lose in the Treaty of Versailles?
In sum, Germany forfeited 13 percent of its European territory (more than 27,000 square miles) and one-tenth of its population (between 6.5 and 7 million people).

Why would you serve chips on a log? To disguise a portion that would fit inside a cigarette packet? Because nothing says “tasty” like a tiny recreation of a freshers’ week piss-up? Or is it because no one’s been kind enough to say: “Dude! You work in a greasy spoon!”?
Restaurants across the world, have seemingly ditched the humble plate in favor of a variety of weird and wacky receptacles — putting the “tit” in bon appétit in the process. But the Internet isn’t letting them get away with it. We have compiled a list of 100 pics from restaurants who are trying to stand out by serving their food in something other than plates and in the process making their customers look like idiots while eating.

Working for you
There was a very welcome piece of good news last week when it was announced that a buyer had been found for Lanarkshire’s last two steel plants, Clydebridge and Dalzell.
Liberty House, an international metals firm, has said it plans to get both plants up and running again as soon as possible, and executive chair Sanjeev Gupta pledged to “restore them to their former glory, steadily rebuilding their skilled workforces and customer base.”
Of course this is a fantastic result for those staff still working at the plants, who had completed the remaining orders held by the former owners, Tata Steel, and who then ensured the plants were mothballed in a way that they could quickly be returned to production if a buyer was found.
But it is also good news for many other workers who had been let go and who now will hopefully find that their skills and experience are needed once again.
It goes without saying that there are significant benefits for the whole local community too, if scores of people are back in work and this key industrial base has been secured.
It is of much less importance, but I have to say that the emergence of a new owner is also one in the eye for those who shrugged their shoulders and said the plants would never reopen.
I can understand why some people feared the steel plants would suffer the same fate as previous economic casualties like Philips in Hamilton, Haemonetics in Bothwell, Freescale and the Rolls Royce in East Kilbride, or parts of the coal industry, such as at Broken Cross in Coalburn.
As I wrote in my column here last October, no-one wanted to see Clydebridge and Dalzell go the same way, and that is why South Lanarkshire Council never resigned itself or gave up hope.
That ’ s why we quickly joined forces with the Scottish Government in the Scottish steel taskforce, on which we were joined by the UK Government, trade unions, Scottish Enterprise, North Lanarkshire Council and other interested parties.
I was proud that we played a significant role in the work of the taskforce, which met seven times at the council’s Hamilton headquarters for discussion and updates. At no time in those meetings did we ever give up hope that Clydebridge and Dalzell had a viable future.
That’s a lesson for all of us in what remain difficult economic times. We should never give up hope – not individuals, if they find themselves out of work, nor the agencies who are responsible for helping those individuals back into employment or are asked to step in when large scale redundancies occur.
I’m proud that South Lanarkshire Council is involved every day in helping such individuals. In 2014/ 15 our employability programme, South Lanarkshire Works 4U, offered help to 4,000 unemployed people, and 1,600 of them moved into work.
In the current year, by December another 1,767 people had been given support with 739 moving back into work.
We have now played a key role in saving Clydebridge and Dalzell too. As a union leader at the Hoover factory in Cambuslang, I worked for decades trying to protect jobs in a traditional local industry, so I knew exactly what the steel workers, their families and their communities were going through. That’s why I wanted the council to offer every possible support it could to the work of the taskforce.
It was important that every effort went into keeping Clydebridge and Dalzell open. Not just because of the jobs involved and the impact on workers and their families, but also because of the strategic long- term importance of retaining a local steel industry and the skills that go with it.
I am delighted that everyone’s work has paid dividends and that the plants will continue to be a source of local employment and community pride.

About to participate in a panel at the Global Competitiveness Forum 2011 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, to discuss how to “reboot education”. Here are some of my thoughts in rather raw format:
1. The challenges and opportunities facing higher education are far too great to be left in the hands of academics alone.
Some estimates anticipate that the number of university students in the world will increase by 62 million in the next 15 years. That is a staggering 4.13 million new students per year. If we tried to satisfy that demand by building large traditional universities (of say 40K students apiece) we would need about 100 new universities per year, or one every three days (each by the way would require at least 500 new faculty members). The stakes, meanwhile, are pretty high, as economic competitiveness continues to increase the demand for high value-adding jobs and those who can’t provide decent education risk being left behind.
Academics for the most part have failed to change a system which is not radically different from the early European universities 1,000 years ago (Univ. of Bologna est. 1088). If not them, then who?
2.- Innovators, entrepreneurs are needed… in droves
The magnitude of the challenge requires that we rethink technologies, educational paradigms and business models. Governments won’t lead the charge. If anything, they may make the process more challenging by decreasing funding at the worst possible time (the State of Arizona has decreased its per-student appropriation from about $9K to $5K in four years). The private sector will need to grow beyond its current size and in spite of the regulatory issues they have faced in the last couple of years. The University of Phoenix serves 400K+ students. No public university comes close. There’s plenty of opportunity for social entrepreneurs too. Western Governors University has grown in just over 10 years from start up to 20K students (with no classrooms or professor in the traditional sense!). Traditional players like Thunderbird are ideally suited to experiment with hybrid approaches bringing together a mix of solutions.
3. On-line works
In fact it works better than traditional if used appropriately. And it’s only going to get better. Our experience with the Global MBA On Demand shows how the right blend of online (in our case collaborative, high touch) and residential modules can not only better serve the needs of an increasing market of technology-savvy, highly mobile, non traditional working professionals, but it can actually deliver exceptionally high rates of student learning outcomes and satisfaction.
The Kauffman Foundation just launched its first Kauffman Lab for Education Ventures with the intent to help catalyze some new models. The first 25 aspiring entrepreneurs are working on projects ranging from blending social networks in learning platforms, to exploiting the power of games, ot improving assessment and retention. None of these innovations would be possible without technology.

As museums and galleries across the United States shutter exhibits featuring Indigenous remains and cultural objects, some Canadian museums are still working on updating their repatriation policies.
Earlier this year, new regulations under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) came into effect, which require institutions to obtain permission from tribes to display remains and cultural objects.
In January, the American Museum of Natural History in New York closed two halls dedicated to Indigenous cultures of North America and in other parts of the museum, covered cases that contained Indigenous artifacts.
"The Halls we are closing are vestiges of an era when museums such as ours did not respect the values, perspectives, and indeed shared humanity of Indigenous peoples," museum president Sean Decatur said in a public statement.
"Actions that may feel sudden to some may seem long overdue to others."
In Canada, a 2019 Government of Canada Survey of Heritage Institutions indicated there were 6.7 million Indigenous cultural artifacts in Canadian museums and an estimated 2,500 ancestral remains.
Stephanie Danyluk, senior manager of community engagement for the Canadian Museums Association, says repatriation happens on an "ad hoc basis."
"It still really is up to museums about how they want to approach and pursue repatriation," she said.
Stephanie Danyluk is the Canadian Museums Association's senior manager of community engagement and co-authored the 2021 report, Moved to Action: Activating UNDRIP in Canadian Museums. (Submitted by Stephanie Danyluk)
She co-authored a report in 2021 on aligning national museum policies with the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, in response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Call to Action 67. She said the overwhelming concerns she heard while consulting with Indigenous communities were around repatriation.
According to the report, the "plundering" of Indigenous nations in Canada was "motivated by genocidal policies and practices of the Canadian government."
"The removal of ancestral remains and cultural belongings happened in conjunction with land dispossession, forced relocation, and attempted erasure of Indigenous nations," the report said.
Danyluk said there was an idea that Indigenous people were unable to care for their own cultural belongings, and museums thought they knew better how to preserve them.
Cost is one of the biggest hindrances to implementing a national repatriation framework, Danyluk said. She said the labour and cost on the part of the Indigenous community to get their items and remains back has to be accounted for.
She estimated the cost to return a Nisga'a totem pole from Scotland in 2023 at around $1 million just for the flight and said the Haida Nation spent over $1 million of their own money to facilitate the return of a few hundred of their belongings and ancestors.
Canadian Museum of History
John Moses, a member of the Delaware and Upper Mohawk bands at Six Nations, is the director for repatriation and Indigenous relations at the Canadian Museum of History in Gatineau, Que. He said he's familiar with NAGPRA, having worked at the National Museum of the American Indian in New York in the mid-90s when the act was relatively new.

Moses said the Museum of History's current repatriation policy was created in 2001 and is currently under review for accordance with UNDRIP.
Moses said the museum has a "long colonial history going back to 1856." He said Indigenous exhibits are the "architectural centrepiece of the building," but every exhibit currently on display was vetted by the appropriate Indigenous consultants and advisors.
Repatriation currently occurs through a number of channels at the Museum of History, said Moses, including involvement with Canada's modern treaty process where he says the museum has a seat at the table as one of the federal partners.
Most recently, the museum gave back items belonging to Chief Poundmaker to members of his family at Poundmaker Cree First Nation in Saskatchewan.
Sacred items such as Potlatch materials from West Coast nations that had been seized under the old Indian Act restrictions have also been returned by the museum.
Museums going through cultural shift
Brennen Ferguson, who is Tuscarora and works with the Haudenosaunee External Relations Committee, has overseen the repatriation of artifacts to the Haudenosaunee from museums and galleries.
He said museums in the U.S. stalled in implementing NAGPRA for decades, with non-compliance in a number of ways, including not properly inventorying items and mislabelling others.

For example, he said museums could label items as "Iroquois" or "Haudenosaunee" and because there's no U.S. federally recognized "Haudenosaunee" tribe or nation, no one needs to be contacted. He said to surmount this, the Haudenosaunee have designated a member of the confederacy, Onondaga Nation, as a representative for all Haudenosaunee.
But Ferguson said he's seen a shift in museum culture. He said the newer generation of museum workers and directors has a different kind of respect compared to their predecessors.
"Their director retires, a newer, younger person gets promoted to director, and right away they do an inventory and contact us," he said.
"They're just complying with the law and they're willing to do so respectfully rather than, you know, dragging their feet."

Go inside Pokémon GO Fest 2018 in Chicago, Illinois, as we take a walk in Lincoln Park.
Gotta catch ’em all with Pokémon GO, the Pokémon Company and Niantic’s innovative AR mobile game. On July 14th and 15th, over 21,000 Trainers attended Niantic’s 2nd Pokémon GO Fest in Chicago’s beautiful Lincoln Park on the shore of Lake Michigan, while 180,000 mobile gamers participated in the surrounding Chicago area, and tens of millions of Trainers all over the world took part in Pokémon GO’s global challenge.
Pokémon GO Trainers enjoyed a 1.8-mile curated walking path in Lincoln Park, featuring four dynamic habitats filled with more than 50 species of Pokémon. In addition to Plusle and Minun appearing throughout the event, Trainers encountered digital Pokémon such as Ludicolo, Torkoal, and Metagross. Event attendees walked an average of more than 6 kilometers, completed an average of 36 research tasks and caught an average of 350 Pokémon at the 2018 GO Fest. Mixing Advanced Augmented Reality (AR), the event’s habitats, trading and catching, and connecting with fellow Trainers, the world of Pokémon truly came alive in Chicago.
“What AR really means is connecting digital information, objects and experiences with the physical world in situ as you experience them. It’s the part about connecting information to the world that’s important. In Chicago, we created a really fun, interesting environment for people to move through, and to really experience the full breadth of the park,” said John Hanke, the founder and CEO of Niantic, a software development company spun out of Google that designed Ingress, Pokémon GO and the upcoming Harry Potter: Wizards Unite.
“The mood was infectious all weekend,” Niantic said in a thank you message to fans. “The feelings of courtesy, kindness, and togetherness never left Lincoln Park, even as trainers filed out at the end of Sunday’s journey.”
Pokémon Go Fest 2018 is part of what Niantic has named the Pokémon Go Summer Tour. The last event takes place Aug. 29-Sept. 2 in Yokosuka, Japan.
Here’s hoping for another Pokémon Go Fest in Chicago next summer…and more live events elsewhere, as well.

Medford Unveils Plans For A New Multi-Million Dollar Police & Fire Facilities
Medford police moved into the city hall with the rest of the city departments more than four decades ago.
And even though city offices have expanded, the police department is still scattered around several offices in city hall.
That will change, as a multi-million dollar plan to build new police and fire facilities for Medford were recently unveiled. We'll talk cost and process from here.

The Sky-Dwarves are here and their airships are almost as magnificent as their theme music…
The Kharadron Overlords may well be the best iteration of dwarves to come out of GW. Possibly elsewhere too–they’re different, but they still feel very dwarven. Having seen just a few of the preview images and models, I was already on board.
But then, on top of that, GW goes and releases this video full of sweeping music and arch narration that seems to capture their character so perfectly you can’t help but feel drawn into this world of an “Iron Sky.” Take a look:
The first thing that grabbed me was the statement: “There are those among the Duardin that do not relish life in the deepest dark, hidden away form the mortal realms. They do not shelter in strongholds of iron and stone beneath great mountain ranges, emerging only in pursuit of ur-gold.
The Kharadron Overlords have turned their backs on their ancestors’ squalid subterranean traditions, instead founding a life in the skies of the mortal realms, taking their place as the rulers above the clouds.
What’s not to get excited about–these are dwarves who are trying something new. Not just in terms of their living situations, but their character. They aren’t just isolated miners and grudge-bearers, they are adventurers and traders.
But then on top of that, they also live in awesome skyfortresses that they created. Which, I’ll grant, may be a little too similar for some people’s tastes. After all if you keep to yourself in isolated mountain fortresses or keep to yourself in isolated sky fortresses, you’re basically still the same. But then there’s the talk of the Kharadron code…
Which is more what you’d call guidelines than an actual code
So I’m curious to see how their faction works out. They’re an Order faction, which makes sense, though I think given their reputation as “sky-pirates and profiteers” it might have been neat to see them represent a different, maybe neutral faction in Age of Sigmar.
I mean you clearly get the sense that these guys do what they want. Their skyships afford them a sense of freedom–it’s just as easy to picture them moving one of their skyfleets away from a chaos incursion as it is to picture them fighting it. And when their skyfortresses carry them away to skysanctuary (skysorry), what’s to compel them to fight?
I think that tension is interesting for the faction. They don’t necessarily have to fight, but they choose to do so.
At any rate. There’s a lot to unpack about this faction–but it was enough to not only make me take renewed interest in Age of Sigmar, but in dwarves in general. They’re honestly a little boring otherwise, but these guys grab elements of the Dwemer (of Elder Scrolls fame) and mix them in with some Age of Sail and a healthy dose of Castle in the Sky to make an exciting dish that I’m eager to dig into.
If they keep going at this rate–I can’t *wait* to see what the Elves are like. What do you think they’ll look like? Certainly their beard armor won’t be nearly as glorious…

In collaboration with McKinsey and Company, the World Economic Forum (WEF) has published the ‘Data Collaboration for the Common Good: Enabling Trust and Innovation Through Public-Private Partnerships’ report. It identifies ‘systemic lack of trust’ among stakeholders as one of the main obstacles to ensuring inclusion and resilience as the global economy moves through the fourth industrial revolution. Therefore, the reports sets out to provide a governance framework focused on building trust among stakeholders and achieving ‘impact for a shared digital future’. Data innovation, stakeholder alignment, and economic sustainability and scalability, are some of the main instruments mentioned in the report. They are seen as crucial for achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The report concludes that advancing the collaborative public-private data life cycle will enable faster decision-making during humanitarian crises, better insights of SDGs indicators and help solve global health and poverty challenges.
The impact of the Internet on businesses and the global economy has been crucial in shaping new economic models, and at the same time, raising new concerns.
The Internet is one of the primary drivers of economic growth, which is visible in many countries that have placed the development of ICT as one of the primary tools for boosting the economy.
The concept of global public goods can be linked to many aspects of Internet governance. The most direct connections are found in areas of access to the Internet infrastructure, protection of knowledge developed through Internet interaction, protection of public technical standards, and access to online education.

Medieval India, also known as the “Middle Kingdoms,” was a period in Indian history that lasted from the 6th to the 18th century. During this time, several powerful empires and dynasties ruled over different parts of the Indian subcontinent, including the Mughals, the Rajputs, the Sultanates, and the Vijayanagara Empire.
One of the most significant events of the medieval period was the arrival of the Mughals, who came to India from Central Asia in the 16th century. The Mughals, led by Babur and later by Akbar, built a vast empire that stretched across the Indian subcontinent and left a lasting impact on Indian culture and society.
Another important dynasty of the medieval period was the Rajputs, who controlled large parts of northern and western India. The Rajputs were known for their martial skills and their patronage of the arts, and their courts were centers of culture and learning.
In the south of India, the Vijayanagara Empire was a powerful kingdom that controlled much of modern-day Andhra Pradesh, Karnanataka,Telangana and Tamil Nadu. The Vijayanagara Empire was known for its impressive architecture, including the famous Vijayanagara temples.
In addition to the empires and dynasties, the medieval period in India was also characterized by the rise of several independent kingdoms and city-states, such as the Ahom kingdom in Assam and the city-state of Bijapur.
Overall, the medieval period in India saw a flourishing of culture and arts, with notable contributions in fields such as literature, architecture, and painting. It also saw the development of a strong centralized administration and the growth of trade and commerce.

For visitors you can reserve a basic area with the Bellagio, well easy by Las Las vega requirements. When guests stay at the residential property they check out just how silent the space is, how pleasant the personnel are and also a lot more.
At a blackjack table, when you wager $5 and also you get a blackjack, you win $7.50, but the very same $5 bank on slots can win you thousands. Much of the slots have a progressive payment, which suggests as the use the machine enhances the reward raises. Sometimes they connect a couple of slots together to increase the pot really high.
There are thousands of fruit machine to pick from, none of which need much ability from the gamer, which makes them the excellent gambling establishment ready beginners.

As the co-chairs of the Williams College Feminist Collective, we’ve been asked about our opinions on the Suzanne Venker controversy a lot over the past couple of weeks. Although we have plenty of ideas about Venker’s ideology (hint: we’re the co-chairs of the Feminist Collective, so you can probably guess how we feel about her viewpoint), we have also had the opportunity to think about and learn more about the views of our peers on feminism and what it means to participate in uncomfortable learning. Let it be known that experiencing the debates on campus and appreciating the ways we have come to understand the issue does not mean we support spaces that actively cause harm toward people on this campus. The ideology that Venker articulates is neither one that we are insulated from nor is it one we no longer encounter in our day-to-day lives.
While it is interesting to witness the varied and complex opinions on this campus about Venker and the Uncomfortable Learning series, there has also been an underlying assumption in many of the conversations we have heard that puzzles us. One argument in particular stands out: some members of our community argue that it is useful for students at the College to be exposed to anti-feminist rhetoric because we do not experience anti-feminism within our own community. In other words, there is an implicit assumption that everyone (or even the majority of people on this campus) is a feminist, and that all understandings of feminism are the same.
In our experience, this is not the case. People here encounter anti-feminism all the time. There is a poster sale on Paresky steps that sells objectifying images of naked women every year. We have overheard a man at a party refer to the punch as “rape juice.” We have been catcalled by a student at the College that we recognized as we jogged on Cole Avenue. One first-year student told us that she has already found a ranking list of the women in her entry based on attractiveness. There was an anti-Planned Parenthood group on Paresky steps just the other day.
Our daily interactions with anti-feminism extend further than negative experiences walking down the street or chilling in Paresky. These anecdotes are symptoms of a problem in our community. There is hostility toward thinking critically about privilege – male privilege, yes, but also in terms of race, sexual orientation, class, ability and all other markers of identity. No matter our opinions on the events of the last week, this controversy gives us the opportunity to turn to ourselves and be honest with our own comforts and discomforts at the College. We are often flawed, inarticulate, misguided or unaware, but the demand to understand what truly makes each of us uncomfortable as we confront what we have taken for granted in our lives is imperative.
The College may be a liberal place (whatever that means) by national standards, but we cannot be lulled into the passive and dangerous belief that this campus is some kind of imagined feminist utopia, free from sexism or misogyny, or even an inherently feminist community. Additionally, the assumption that everyone who identifies as a feminist shares the same experiences and will share the same discomfort with Venker’s now-canceled event disregards the diversity of experiences on campus.
As we discuss the Venker controversy and feminism at the College, it is easy to create a dichotomy between Venker and the College, but we must remember that not everyone at the College is a feminist. The notion that Venker would have been this community’s first exposure to anti-feminist ideology is patronizing and inaccurate. As you continue to consider and debate the Venker controversy, we ask that you also use it as an opportunity to reflect on the climate of our own campus. Students already encounter anti-feminism every day at the College, and no matter your opinion on free speech, uncomfortable learning or promoting dialogues, this is unacceptable.

This paper proposes an improved droop control strategy for parallel invert er s in micro grid. It employs a double closed loop control method based on measured voltage feedback aiming at the voltage sags problem caused by the introduction of virtual impedance, for invert er control in the micro grid. Firstly, the frequency response character of the closed loop transfer function with virtual impedance and the inductive variation was analyzed in the frequency domain, indicating that the improved droop control method is necessary.
an improved droop control strategy based on inductive virtual impedance with measured voltage feedback was proposed. Lastly, the Mat lab/Sim u link simulation results show that the improved droop control strategy can not only solve the output voltage sags of the invert er, but also improve the accuracy of power allocation of droop control, maintain the system voltage and frequency stability. It is proved that the improved droop control strategy is effective.

Aiming at the shortage of the traditional droop control strategy, this paper proposes an improved Q-V droop control strategy based on the inductive virtual impedance. Firstly, the frequency response curves of the closed loop transfer function of invert er control system based on inductive virtual impedance and the inductive virtual impedance variation on closed loop transfer function are analyzed in the frequency domain, indicating that the improved Q-V droop control method is necessary .
Then, the simulation experiments are built in parallel invert er s operation model of two distributed generations, simulation results of two kinds of operating conditions show that the proposed improved Q-V droop control strategy can eliminate the problem of voltage sags caused by the introduction of the inductive virtual impedance, improve the power allocation accuracy of droop control, and maintain the stability of the system voltage and frequency, so as to ensure the power supply quality of the independence micro grid system. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the improved Q-V droop control strategy.

Here are a few of the cons of:.
The weekly expense might make therapy unattainable to teenagers in lower-income families. Not everyone can manage their fee, and lots of insurance provider do not cover telehealth services..
Innovation is not always reliable. Poor connection and weak Wi-Fi signals can result in disrupted counseling sessions.
When a teenager matches with a therapist in a various city or state, so he/she can’t constantly provide pertinent local suggestions. When the counselor needs to make recommendations to other local health services, but are not familiar with the location where the teenager stays. If you can, we recommend connecting with a regional therapist as much as possible.

Mechanisms of plant survival and mortality during drought: why do some plants survive while others succumb to drought?
A hydraulically based theory considering carbon balance and insect resistance that allowed development and examination of hypotheses regarding survival and mortality was developed, and incorporating this hydraulic framework may be effective for modeling plant survival andortality under future climate conditions.
Water Relations of Plants and Soils
This book is a useful introduction for students, teachers, and investigators in both basic and applied plant science, including botanists, crop scientists, foresters, horticulturists, soil scientists, and even gardeners and farmers who desire a better understanding of how their plants grow.
Survey and synthesis of intra‐ and interspecific variation in stomatal sensitivity to vapour pressure deficit
Responses of stomatal conductance (gs) to increasing vapour pressure deficit (D) generally follow an exponential decrease described equally well by several empirical functions. However, the magnitude…
Global convergence in the vulnerability of forests to drought
It is shown that 70% of 226 forest species from 81 sites worldwide operate with narrow hydraulic safety margins against injurious levels of drought stress and therefore potentially face long-term reductions in productivity and survival if temperature and aridity increase as predicted for many regions across the globe.
A method for measuring hydraulic conductivity and embolism in xylem
Abstract Hydraulic conductivity of the xylem is computed as the quotient of mass flow rate and pressure gradient. Measurements on excised plant stems can be difficult to interpret because of…
Vulnerability of Xylem to Cavitation and Embolism
Embolism Formation by Winter Freezing, Water Stress-Induced Embolism, and more.
Trends in wood density and structure are linked to prevention of xylem implosion by negative pressure
The more drought-tolerant the plant, the more negative the xylem pressure can become without cavitation, and the greater the internal load on thexylem conduit walls, and Dt was correlated with cavitation resistance.

Xylem Embolism in Ring‐Porous, Diffuse‐Porous, and Coniferous Trees of Northern Utah and Interior Alaska
Differences between sites in northern Utah and interior Alaska were explained by vulnerability to embolism caused by freeze-thaw cycles, whereas most conifers were entirely resistant, whereas dicot trees were vulner- able.
Vulnerability to xylem cavitation and the distribution of Sonoran Desert vegetation.
It is suggested that cavitation vulnerability limits plant distribution by defining maximum drought tolerance across habitats and influencing competitive ability of drought tolerant species in mesic habitats.

In 2004 Shaker Museum | Mount Lebanon became the steward of the Mount Lebanon Shakers’ 1824 Second Meetinghouse. The Second Meetinghouse was erected at a time when Shakers had experienced an amazing period of growth and felt confident in their future. As a result, they began building some of their most substantial and innovative buildings. The Meetinghouse is one of those, designated as one of New York State’s most important examples of vernacular architecture. Although owned by the Museum, the Second Meetinghouse sits on land owned by Darrow School, a private high school that occupies nearly two dozen Shaker buildings. The Museum leases the Second Meetinghouse to the school and the school uses the building as its library.
The history of the construction, modification, and use of the Meetinghouse is told in a pamphlet published by and available from Shaker Museum | Mount Lebanon titled, Noble but Plain: The Second Meetinghouse at Mount Lebanon. At the time of its publication in 1994 there were several unanswered questions about the building. Since that time, one of those questions, relating to the Second Meetinghouse floor, has been answered and the answer can now be added to that history.
In 1795 the Marquise de La Tour Pin de Gouvernet visited the Shakers at Watervliet, NY, and kept a journal in which she described the Shaker public meeting she attended. She wrote:
I was seated at the corner of the chimney, and my guide had enjoined silence, which was all the easier for me as I was alone. While keeping absolutely silent, I had the opportunity to admire the floor which was constructed of pine wood, without any knots, and of a rare perfection and whiteness. Upon this fine floor were drawn in different directions lines represented by copper nails, brilliantly polished, the heads of which were level with the floor. I endeavored to divine what could be the use of these lines, which did not seem to have any connection with each other, when at the last stroke of the bell the two side doors opened, and I saw enter on my side fifty or sixty young girls or women,…I then observed that the women stood upon these lines of nails, taking care not to cross them with their toes.
The meetinghouse in which she observed the Shakers is long gone and the shiny nails with it. A new meetinghouse built at Watervliet in 1848 does not appear to have any such markings or they have been sanded away over the years. The Shaker meetinghouse at Canterbury, NH, built in 1792, does, however, have lines marked in a manner similar to those described by the Marquise. These lines used both shiny nails and different colored wooden pins set flush with the floor. At Canterbury there are eight diagonal rows of nails and pegs — four on the brothers’ side of the room and four on the sisters’ side — radiating from a central point along the back wall of the sanctuary toward the front wall. There is also one distinct line, parallel to the back wall of the sanctuary, that crosses all of the other lines. Their purpose was apparently the same as those at Watervliet: to mark the proper position for brothers and sisters to stand as they prepared for dances used in worship.
In 1787 Father Joseph Meacham succeeded Father James Whittaker as the leader of the Shaker Church. He held this position until his death in 1796 and in that role worked tirelessly to bring the Shakers into “gospel order” – regulating all aspects of Shaker life, including the manner and type of dances used in worship. In 1787 he introduced the Square Order Shuffle. This dance required strict organization – rank and file – and it is likely that the introduction of markings on meetinghouse floors came around this time. As Father Joseph lived primarily at Mount Lebanon it seems logical that floor markings used at Watervliet and at Canterbury had their origin in the house in which Father Joseph lived and frequently worshiped at Mount Lebanon. That building, the first meetinghouse, built in 1785, still stands but shows no indication of pegs or nails to define lines of the floor today. Now a private home, the floors have been repeatedly refinished and modified. If there were brass or copper tacks used as markers they very well may have been refinished away. For years, one of the unanswered questions about the 1824 Meetinghouse was whether its floor had pins or nails that identified dance positions.
In the 1950s the Meetinghouse was used by Darrow School as a gym and in 1962 it was converted into their library. While a library, the floor was covered with carpet and inaccessible for study. Several years ago, the old carpet was removed and new modular carpeting installed. It was a monumental job – removing books and book shelves and the rest of the library furnishings. For a brief moment in this process the floor was exposed and Shaker Museum staff were able to inspect the floor. On the day of the visit, staff walked into the sanctuary and directly to the middle of the room. Looking down at the painted jump circle for what had been, until the end of the 1950s, the center of a basketball court, a rather large dowel, three-quarters of an inch in diameter, was easily seen by the distinct color of the dark end-grain wood showing through the yellow pine. One could imagine that this was the spot where the Shakers’ public preacher stood as he addressed the Sunday morning crowd of visitors from the outside world.
Encouraged by finding that peg, Museum staff scoured the rest of the floor and found it still retained wooden pegs aligned in four distinct lines. Two of the lines are defined by twenty three-eighths-inch pegs set about two and one-half feet apart. These lines run east and west across the width of the room. They are equidistant from and about six feet from the peg in the jump circle. Two other lines defined by five-sixteenths-inch pegs begin near the center of the back wall of the sanctuary and diverge from each other toward their respective ends of the room. Both of these lines cross the first lines at about a fifteen-degree angle. They create a wide-bottomed “V” that opens toward the benches provided for visitors. There are several miscellaneous pegs that do not seem to be part of any of the other lines. The staff marked the position of all the pegs with bolts stood on their heads to facilitate a photograph of the lines. It seems logical that the first two lines would have marked the place where Shaker brothers and sisters would have stood facing each other in preparation for a dance such as the Square Order Shuffle. The purpose of the second set of lines does not reveal itself so easily. They could have been marks to position singers who would have faced the public benches and divided the brothers and sisters as they labored in dance as separate ends of the building.
The 1824 Meetinghouse at Mount Lebanon is a remarkable building. Its architectural innovations are well known and applauded but still there are new discoveries to be made that reflect on how the Shakers used their best known worship space.

FOCUS ON ... Kevin Brunette
Learning with the Pros has never been easier!
Kevin Brunette is an engineer by profession, and worked for several years as a specialist technical communicator, developing user guides for computer applications. This included the creation of electronic help files, web content and associated training material. He is now working as an author and publisher.
He is a keen surfski paddler, and started with a few topics on world surfski champion Dawid Mocke’s surfski school website. This expanded to incorporate more topics and soon ended up in a book titled SURFSKI with the Pros..., which is the first of its kind and which has been well received in both the local and overseas markets. Whilst Kevin was busy on the surfski book, he teamed up with Rodney Durbach, top local squash player and professional coach and completed a book tilted SQUASH with the Pros...
Both the surfski and squash books are aimed at novice to intermediate levels in the sport, and mark the start of the with the Pros... brand of sports coaching books.
Kevin is knowledgeable on the sports he writes about, and presents the content logically and simply, integrating this with top quality images and illustrations. The result is a product which is easy to reference and understand. Each book is presented in a similar way, thus ensuring the design concept is familiar and consistent. Further books he is busy on include advanced topics on those already published and a further book targeted at a player in his formative cricketing years, his parents or coach.

A college degree can pay off anywhere, but for Delaware residents, earning a degree can mean better job prospects as well. The Delaware Department of Labor projects that 43 percent of new jobs created between 2008 and 2018 are expected to require a college degree or formal vocational training, and more than 75 percent of the jobs that fall in the top two wage categories require post-secondary education or work experience in a related field.
Nationwide, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reports that high school graduates earned a median weekly income of $668 and experienced an unemployment rate of 6.0 percent in 2014, while those with a bachelor's degree earned a median weekly income of $1,101 and experienced an unemployment rate of 3.5 percent.
Higher Education in Delaware
Delaware is recovering from the recent recession better than many states. The BLS reports that the unemployment rate as of March 2015 was 4.6 percent, well below the national unemployment rate of 5.5 percent, and Delaware's higher education system has so far avoided significant budget cuts from the state government. The National Conference of State Legislatures reports that in the fiscal year 2009, Delaware was one of the few states that didn't reduce its contributions to higher education at all, and in 2010, the state's higher education appropriations were reduced by only 0.5 percent. But despite consistent support from the state, the Delaware Department of Education reported a $9,830 affordability gap in Delaware in 2009, the largest gap between the cost of education and the means of students among the 16 states that make up the Southern Regional Education Board. The cost of paying for an education means that for many students, it is essential to work while going to college. A 2006 study by the American Council on Education found that 78 percent of college undergraduates were working while in school, averaging about 30 hours a week at their jobs--statistics that have changed little since the government began tracking that data in the 1990s. For working students in Delaware, online degree programs allow a flexible schedule that can be easier to coordinate with a job and other commitments. Whether you choose to study at Delaware online schools or attend a national online school, there are a variety of degree programs you can choose from. Delaware online degrees are available at all degree levels, from certificate to doctorate, and in fields ranging from health care to business management to marketing.
Careers for College Graduates in Delaware
According to the BLS, the largest industries in Delaware as of March 2011 were education and health services, government, and professional and business services. The U.S. Department of Labor reported that hospitals and health care networks as well as bioscience giants Dupont and AstraZeneca are among the 25 largest employers in Delaware.
According to the Delaware Department of Labor, the industries predicted to grow the most between 2008 and 2018 include health care and social assistance, administrative and waste services, and professional and technical services. The following careers in Delaware are predicted to have the most annual openings from 2008 to 2018 (jobs are listed along with average 2008 salaries and typical education requirements):
- Registered nurses: $68,910. Associate degree.
- Accountants and auditors. $67,288. Bachelor's degree.
- Elementary school teachers, except special education: $50,866. Bachelor's degree.
- Network systems and data communications analysts: $80,475. Bachelor's degree.
- Personal financial advisors: $86,299. Bachelor's degree.
As post-secondary education becomes more important to building a great career in Delaware, students who want to succeed in the workplace may benefit from the accessibility of Delaware online schools.

North Dakota labor markets are going to be a key to deciding the future course of the economy in the state. I discuss the big picture for just a few measures and it is not great news.
I take a look at the local data and the issue of the level of benefits compared to local wages.
I offer up some other ways to look at the scale of the problem of unemployment claims in North Dakota in the hopes of helping policy discussions.
Economic statistics are unable to keep up with the pace of change right now, so I tried to come up with a more accurate picture of the unemployment situation in North Dakota.
With a new initial claims observation for North Dakota I updated the data and the calculations and provide the cumulative numbers through the last observation and the current observation.
