Pulp and paper enterprises are of great importance for sustainable economic and environmental development of certain regions and the economy of Ukraine. Man uses many natural resources during the lifetime, creating a burden on nature. As the world's population increases, this load increases, leading to a shortage of resources and deterioration in the environment. The main activity of Kokhavynska Paper Mill PJSC is the production of sanitary products for the domestic market and export.
Observation of the surface water state is carried out to determine its quality (contaminant content) based on the results of analytical control. The analysis of surface water was made according to the polluting sources of the object. It resulted in the proposed management decisions on directions and measures to improve the state of surface water.
The paper considers the possibility of determining the permanent and random sources of pollution of the environment by the level of pollution of liquid atmospheric precipitation. The problems of liquid atmospheric precipitation testing and monitoring of pollution concentration during precipitation are outlined. The expediency of developing of a portable system that allows collecting samples of liquid atmospheric precipitation in autonomous modes at different time intervals and periods of rainfall, regardless of the place of its installation, is substantiated.
The estimation of population health risk from carbon oxide and hydrocarbons waste influence of carbon producing enterprises is observed in this work. After analyzing ecological emissions safety of the carbon producing enterprises it was established that their activity belongs to the average level of risk and ability to get respiratory organs diseases, sight, cardiovascular and central nervous system diseases for old persons, pregnant women and children.
The problem of permanent and prolonged pollution of soils by various kinds of pollutants, in particular heavy metals, was analyzed. Experimental investigations of penetration of copper sulfate into a vertical soil profile have been carried out. The adsorption capacity of the sandy environment of copper sulfate
was experimentally determined.
The problem of penetration of nitrogen fertilizers in the soil is analyzed. The influence of adsorption process on the rate of transfer of fertilizers in the vertical profile of the soil is determined. Experimental researches of adsorption properties of soil environment on the base of absorption of calcium nitrate by soil are done. Проаналізовано проблему проникнення азотних добрив вглиб ґрунту. Визначено вплив процесу адсорбції на швидкість перенесення добрив по вертикальному профілю ґрунту.
One of the major problems of pollution of soil environment, namely by components of mineral fertilizers due to their massive and continuous use in agriculture was analysed in the article. Possible ways of penetration of not absorbed mineral fertilizers deep into the soil as the main reason for getting fertilizers in the lower layers of the soil environment were investigated. A comparison of the impact of soil and climatic conditions on the rate of penetration of fertilizers deep into the soil was done.
Purpose. Designing both the apparatus and methodical means based on the classical methods of electroprospecting and their modification. Using this set for an elecromagnetic monitoring of environmentally problematic objects. The objects to be observed are ground dams, haloes of underground water pollution, mine fields, geotechnical objects. Methodology. High-speed technological set was created and had been studying in the environmentally problematic areas in pre-Carpathians (Yavoriv, Stebnyk, Kalush etc.).
Experimentally investigate the effect of heavy metals on roadside lands by mobile sources of pollution, and the spread of heavy metals with distance.
Push-pull vibratory electromagnetic cavitator of resonance action consists of two electromagnets, an elastic system connecting their stators and anchors, and two cavitation breakers located in the flowing liquid in the form of soundboards with holes which fluctuate in antiphase. High degree of biological disinfection of water with the productivity of approximately 3.5 m3/h at its continuous supply is provided due to the combination of magnetic and cavitation effects.

The authors examine three key areas of domestic change and policy adaptation: social welfare provision, local political institutional reform, and social and environmental consequences of major infrastructure projects. Demonstrating remarkable parallels between the immediate post - Qing era and the recent phase of Chinese reform since the late - 1990s, the book highlights common challenges to the political leadership by tracing dynamics of state activism in crafting new social space and terms of engagement for problem - solving and exploring social forces that continue to undermine the centralizing impetus of the state.

Through the Darkness: A Novel of the World War--And Magic
Synopses & Reviews
Harry Turtledove is one of the most popular authors in SF today. His fame has risen due to books such as The Guns of the South, How Few Remain, and The Great War: The American Front. In this current series, he takes one of the most poignant times in human memory — World War II — and places it in a world of his own making.
Turtledove returns in this third volume to a world at war. A world where magic works, and where blood is used to power that magic. Algarvian mages slaughter thousands of Kaunian prisoners in work camps to weave powerful magic in their unrelenting desire to win the war. King Swemmel, Lord of Unkerlant, similarly destroys his own subjects in an attempt to stem the Algarvian takeover of the continent.
The scholars of Kuusamo are no closer to understanding the bloodless magic that may win the war for them — but their time for research has grown short. Kuusamo has joined in an unsteady alliance with Lagaos and Unkerlant. No one kingdom trusts the other, but they feel safer united as one. For it is only together that they can defeat the Algarvian threat.
A young Kaunian girl is forced to remain hidden while her Forthwegian savior braves the rough, Algarvian-controlled streets to earn their keep. The scholars of Kuusamo are no closer to understanding the bloodless magic that may win the war-and time is short. Kuusamo has joined into an unsteady alliance with Lagoas and Unkerlant. No one kingdom trusts another, but they must unite, for it is only together that they can defeat the Algarvian threat.
The war is no longer confined to soldiers and sorcerers. Common folk are joining together to fight from underneath their oppressors, whether they be Algarve or Unkerlant. What those farmer soldiers lack in skill, they make up for in dedication. A dedication that will carry them . . . through the darkness.
About the Author
Harry Turtledove is the Hugo-winning author of many SF and fantasy novels. His alternate-history novels, include the bestselling The Guns of the South, How Few Remain, the Worldwar series, and the recent Ruled Britannia. He lives with his wife and daughters in Los Angeles.

Northscaping adds over 2,000 plants to NetPS Plant Database
Northscaping added 2,325 new plant varieties to the NetPS Plant Database, bringing the total in the database to over 35,000 plants.
Among the plants added in this most recent expansion are over 450 new houseplant varieties, including the entire Leaf Joy lineup from Proven Winners, new tropical varieties, a continued focus on warm-zone plants, a range of new native plants, hundreds of perennials, over 300 new annuals, more than 200 edibles, 100 new water garden plants, and much more.
“We are committed to keeping this database one of the most valuable tools in a garden center’s toolbelt,” explained James Kohut, president of Northscaping and developer of NetPS. “Annual expansions allow us to keep it up-to-date with new varieties and sought-after plants and make it easier for sellers to update their online stores and plant information resources.”
The plug-and-play NetPS Plant Finder Tool is used by over 250 nurseries and garden centers across North America as their primary plant database. With the tool, sellers can maintain accurate and up-to-date information on their websites about the plants they offer, and with the NetPS Plus service they can manage the plant information and photographs in their online stores.
“Alsip Home & Nursery has been a client of the NetPS Plant Finder since 2009 and it has consistently been one of the best features on our website for SEO. We love that it gives our customers a way to browse our plants before shopping in store. So when we started ShipMyPlants.com it was a no-brainer to integrate NetPS into our platform,” explains Rich Christakes, founder of Ship My Plants and owner of Alsip Home & Nursery. “NetPS provides plant data for over 41,000 plants, which has really helped our sellers to quickly and accurately add plants to their stores.”
“As new plant varieties are introduced into the market, gardeners will begin their hunt online to find them,” says Kohut. “This expansion allows plant retailers to quickly select the new plants they offer, and the rest is done for them. Our team uploads high-quality photos and accurate information and automatically updates the plant finder tools on their websites to show these new varieties.”

TEHRAN, Aug. 22 (MNA) – Iran is determined to open a new chapter in its cooperation with the United Arab Emirates especially in oil and energy sector, Tehran’s new ambassador to Abu Dhabi says.
“I hope we can strengthen our relations in all areas,” Mohammad Reza Fayyaz told the Mehr News Agency.
Fayyaz said during his tenure as ambassador he will do his best to increase Iran’s trade ties with the UAE more than before.
Iran and the UAE as two oil-rich countries in the region are expected to increase their cooperation in the energy sector, he suggested.
Asked about the effect of sanctions on Iran’s economic ties with the UAE, he said, “Our bilateral relations are good and (we) try to make it better.”
He also advised the media outlets not to be influenced by those who are trying to undermine the amicable relations between the two countries.

Pair of offensive linemen score touchdowns Saturday
The Peacock Tornadoes are unbeaten, but they’re trying to get better.

Peacock receiver Levi Paul makes a leaping catch against Vanier Saturday in Moose Jaw High School Football League action.
The Tornadoes came out strong Saturday as they beat the Vanier Vikings 42-14 in Moose Jaw High School Football League action.
In other league action Central beat Estevan 46-35 in a wild one and the Yorkton Raiders remained unbeaten as they beat Weyburn 28-7.
Tornadoes 42 Vikings 14
The Tornadoes may have been an unbeaten team playing a winless team, but they didn’t take anything for granted.
They needed to be sharp early as Vanier drove the ball on them until a fortunate deflection turned into a Keegan Ludwar interception.
On the next play Lane Bossence ran 54 yards for touchdown and the Tornadoes had the start they were looking for.
“The coaches stressed to us not to take anything for granted,” said Bossence. “It was good to get off to a fast start.”
For the Vikings it was the same old story as a big play early killed them.
“We saw a few things on film we thought we could move the ball on them with and we executed at the start,” said Vanier coach Ryan Gottselig. “The turnover hurt us, but it was the response on defence that hurt us. You can’t give up a score on the next play.”
Levi Paul caught 60- and 20-yard touchdown passes to put the Tornadoes up 21-0. Sawyer Buettner threw his third touchdown pass to Kyle Arndt for a 21-yard score. Nathan Fall ran in from 13 and 37 yards out as the Tornadoes built a 42-0 lead. Fall finished with 149 yards rushing and Paul had 129 yards receiving.
Vanier kept battling. They capped a drive with a one-yard touchdown run by senior lineman Matt Rossler and the Vikings players and fans erupted when he hit paydirt.
“He’s a Grade 12 kid and when you get a big kid like that to score it really fires up the guys,” said Gottselig.
Vikings quarterback Rylan Blacklaws scored a touchdown as well and finished with 101 yards rushing and 87 yards passing.
Both teams are looking to continue to improve.
“That’s one of the things we’re working on fundamentally is playing some good team defence,” said Peacock coach Blake Buettner. “It’s just playing as a group and recognition. We need to recognize the play and then flow to the ball. A lot of that is inexperience. We’re working on getting better every single week. We want the kids to focus and to learn.”
Cyclones 46 Elecs 35
It was a big day for some big linemen as Central’s standout guard Braydon Johnson also scored a touchdown.
Johnson, who was a member of the Football Sask team at the Football Canada Cup, scored on a short run. For most of the game, he and the rest of the Cyclones offensive line helped spark their running game.
“We’re really starting to lean on our front five. They’re really starting to play well,” said Cyclones coach Colin Belsher. “We’re trying to run behind Braydon Johnson. He really anchors our offensive line and allows our running backs to pick up positive yards.”
The teams traded scores early and went into the half tied 21-21. Estevan took a 28-21 lead on their first possession of the second half. Central replied with a touchdown, but missed the convert.
“We really shot ourselves in the foot. We would start rolling along and then we would miss a block here or there or miss a tackle and Estevan would capitalize,” said Belsher.
Led by tailback Zach Hagerman and quarterback Parker Chow, the Cyclones ran the ball about 80 per cent of the time and were able to prevail.

The ARK fund hasn’t been named, but David Einhorn believes that in early 2021, Greenlight will be “a so-called ‘innovation’ stock with very similar characteristics to our bubble name.” ETFs that are actively managed”.
Einhorn points to Greenlight shorting a basket of his ETF’s constituents, saying he’s lost 76% of its value since first investing in 2021.
Commentators have suggested the ARK ETF most resembles a greenlight short, noting that it plummeted 68% in 2022 as more technology-focused investments headed south.
Wood is a strongly opinionated fund manager, and both fans and detractors seem to either support or criticize his aggressive all-in investing style.
ARK’s most famous holding is Tesla, which has lost 62% of its value over the past year, while other big holdings such as Coinbase (down 75%) and Shopify have similarly fallen 62%.
Einhorn revealed that Greenlight first messed around with “bubble baskets” in 2014 and backfired again in 2020, but got lucky a third time in 2021.
“We are just stubborn. In March 2021 we believed the bubble had burst again… this time.”
Einhorn added that Greenlight’s third bubble has 31 stocks in his basket and no big losers in the portfolio so far.
“2022 has been a very good year,” he said Einhorn. Greenlight’s definition of a bubble stock can underperform traditional valuation analysis by at least 80 degrees and still doesn’t look cheap.

This encompasses various practices and behaviors that aim to minimize the potential negative consequences of gambling.
Setting Limits and Budgeting
One of the fundamental principles of responsible gambling is the practice of setting limits and adhering to a predetermined budget. Before engaging in any form of gambling, it is important to establish a clear spending limit and to refrain from exceeding it. This can help prevent financial strain and the development of an unhealthy gambling habit. Delve deeper into the topic by checking out this thoughtfully chosen external site. Access this interesting research, uncover additional information and fresh perspectives on the topic discussed in the article.
Recognizing Problem Gambling
It is crucial to be able to recognize the signs of problem gambling in oneself or others.

If you or someone you know exhibits these behaviors, it may be indicative of a gambling problem that requires professional assistance.
Seeking Support and Resources
For individuals who are struggling with their gambling habits, seeking support from resources and organizations dedicated to addressing gambling addiction is a vital step in promoting responsible gambling. There are numerous support groups, hotlines, and counseling services available to provide assistance to those affected by problem gambling. Additionally, many online platforms and casinos provide tools for players to self-exclude or limit their gambling activities.
Promoting Responsible Gambling in the Community
Responsible gambling is not solely the responsibility of the individual gambler, but also of the gambling industry and the community at large. It is important for gambling operators to implement responsible gambling measures, such as providing information on potential risks, offering self-exclusion options, and training employees to identify and assist individuals who may be experiencing issues related to gambling.
Moreover, promoting awareness and education about responsible gambling within the community can help foster a healthier gambling environment. This can be achieved through public service announcements, educational campaigns, and collaborations with community organizations to raise awareness about responsible gambling practices. Our goal is to consistently deliver an all-encompassing learning journey. That’s why we recommend this external resource with additional information about the subject. https://www.Saseolsite.com/product-page/%EC%8A%88%ED%8D%BC%EC%8A%A4%ED%83%80%EB%B2%B3, immerse yourself further in the subject!
In conclusion, responsible gambling is an essential component of maintaining a safe and enjoyable gambling experience. By understanding the principles of responsible gambling, adhering to self-imposed limits, recognizing signs of problem gambling, seeking support when needed, and promoting responsible gambling in the community, individuals can engage in gambling activities in a manner that is mindful of their well-being and the well-being of others.

My story began in 1996 and involves cycling shorts, banana pancakes, a machete, Policemen in Hawaiian Shirts, a lot of mangos and the unconditional generosity of people who have almost nothing.
In 1996 I’d been working and living in London for over 5 years. I worked in a Project helping Drug users and homeless young people. It was interesting, challenging and worthwhile work but I was bored. So I took redundancy of £1000 and went cycling in Africa.
As you do.
My plan was to cycle from Kenya to Cape Town. Cycling is a fantastic way to see a country and get close to the people. The roads may be chronically bad but the richness of the African people and countryside more than made up for any inconvenience.
Setting off from Nairobi I explored the lakes of southern Kenya, saw the snow capped peaks of Kilmanjaro reflected in the mirror of Lake Chala, took a bush safari to see the elephants of Amboseli. My bike and I rode passed zebra, giraffe and buffalo, explored the vibrant chaos of Mombassa and the languid, humid charm of Dar es Salaam. I lost count of the times I would silently ride passed, on my modern bike, a local transporting precarious piles of goods on a single gear jalopy only to hear them struggling to catch up with me. To have a conversation and to wonder as to why someone would cycle for pleasure.
I must have said Jambo (Swahili for hello) thousands of times to people only too glad to see and talk to a stranger in their village. Their curiosity with me was as great as my interest in them.
Formerly known as Nyasaland, the Republic of Malawi, is a landlocked country in southeast Africa. Bordered by Zambia, and Mozambique, the country is defined by the huge Lake Malawi. The third largest in Africa and eighth largest in the world, Lake Malawi is the second deepest lake in Africa. This great lake's tropical waters are reportedly the habitat of more species of fish than those of any other body of freshwater on Earth.
From the moment I crossed the border south of the Tanzanian town of Mbeya I was entranced. Cycling past tea plantations in the hilly north, slowly heading south and lake wards towards Karongo, I soon began to fall for Malawi's easy charm. Malawi is one of the poorest countries on earth but has the friendliest people. People always, always, greet you with a smile and ask only for a conversation and a smile in return. Malawi is justifiably known as The Warm Heart of Africa. You can’t help but be sucked in to the place.
After a few weeks ambling south I eventually rolled down the side of the Great Rift Valley in to Nkhata Bay. For a long time one of the best kept secrets on the African backpackers’ trail, Nkhata Bay has a superbly lush and scenic setting, comprising a pair of bays enclosed by forested hills and separated by a long, narrow peninsula. The small town itself, nestled between the hills and lakeshore, is as charming as it is difficult to label. 413 km from Lilongwe along the lakeshore road it’s an overgrown Tonga fishing village, a venerable district capital, a bustling market port and a laidback lakeside resort; it’s difficult to know which of these labels fits best.
Breakfast was always Banana Pancakes drizzled with honey. I purr with pleasure thinking about them now.
Mr Phillips Amiyoka Chirwa and his large extended family were a pleasure to be around. Mr Phillips was a widely respected elder and a clever, kind and wise man. He, with the help of the other family, somehow produced the best place to stay in the most run down of settings. Lazy days were spent by the lake, picking mangos straight from the tree or simply sitting on the veranda with other travellers or the delightful Chirwa children. Richard, Kennedy, Naruth, Aswell, Manson and the rest were a pleasure to spend time with.
Mangos & Machetes
I rode up the side of the Great Rift valley, towards the Mzuzu/ Lakeshore junction. I felt fit, strong and well rested as I pounded up the long steep hill, passing curious locals standing outside their homes wondering what this crazy Mzungu was doing or giving me a friendly wave.
At the busy junction which is both a Police road block and bus station I went south on the Lakeshore road. I had no particular destination in mind but it was good to be on the road again. I had no idea of what was about to happen and how eventually you'd be reading this.
Once I'd hit the lakeshore road I had it to myself. Occasionally I'd come across someone walking in the road; the lack of cars meant that people use roads like a footpath, like most of Africa. After 10 miles or so I was cycling down a slight slope and entered a big forest plantation.
Three young men were walking ahead of me walking in the middle of the road. As I approached, I prepared to utter the usual Swahili greeting of Jambo when suddenly one guy lunged sideways and pushed me, and my bike, into the drainage ditch alongside the road. They swarmed around and took the bike off me.
I was slightly surprised by this turn of events but got myself together and realised they were struggling to steal the bike as the chain and handlebars were mangled. I innocently walked towards them saying "I'll show you where the money is. It's in the front pannier".
I don't know whether it was the strangeness of this sentence or my confused approach that upset them, but one guy pulled out a panga or machete and started hitting me with it. He used the flat of the blade around my neck and shoulders before I made the wisest decision of my life and ran.
Ran as fast as my little Welsh legs would carry me.
He followed right on my tail but could only land a few more blows before giving up the chase. I ran as far as I could before turning around and watched incredulously as they pushed my bike around the bend out of the forest and left me there.
I was completely alone in the middle of Africa with a pair of trainers, a pair of shorts and a sweaty shirt to my name. Everything I had was on the bike. Money, passport, clothes, water. Everything.
This was before email was available in Africa and telephones were only one or two per town. Neither would have been any help as I was
standing in the middle of a forest all alone.
It took a while before I got myself together but I couldn't just stand in the forest forever. My injuries didn't seem too bad and I hadn't been cut. I had to make a decision which way to go; south into untraveled territory or back towards Nkhata Bay. Back towards the bad guys.........
I decided to go back to where I knew and after waiting a while longer, gingerly started to retrace my route. I cleared the bend without incident and set off back to Nkhata Bay, keeping an eye out for my assailants. The road was empty but after an hour a lone man on a bike came up behind me. I explained my plight and for the first, but not the last time that day, saw the anger and shame in the face of a Malawian on discovering that some of their country men had done this to a guest in their land. The man was called Goodwell Paramor and he was going to a Jehovah's Witness Conference on his bike. Dressed in his best Sunday suit he tried to give me a pillion ride back to Nkhata Bay but we soon realised that, as I was fitter than him, I would ride the bike back to town with him on the back.
We retraced my route back to where I was attacked, occasionally stopping whilst the police talked to people on the road. Back in the forest I explained what had happened but there was nothing to see. The guys were long gone and there was no SOCO or CSI here. Back in the Land Rover I accepted the futility of it all and tried to think of what I had to do next. I had to find somewhere to stay, organise a new passport and get some money from somewhere.
After continuously stopping to talk to locals along the way, the Land Rovers unexpectedly turned left at the junction and headed towards Mzuzu, not back to Nkhata Bay. We were now in an area which was not on my route. After a few miles we headed off road into a thick woodland. The vehicles separated, one vehicle went down a track whilst I was left in one with and armed guard.
We waited. The policeman and I didn't have a common language so we sat there, sharing embarrassed smiles in a silence punctuated by the thud of ripe mangos falling on to the steel Land Rover roof. I remember thinking how bizarre the day had become when suddenly the sound of gunshot rang out from inside the wood. My guard started shouting to his colleagues, then ran off towards the shooting.
Wait a minute!
I needed an armed guard a few minutes ago, but as soon as the shooting started my guard leaves me!
Half an hour later he came back and we drove to a clearing in the woods where we met the other, grinning, policemen standing around a pile of items on the floor. In the back of one of the Land Rovers were two of the young men who had robbed me. Both still in their teens, one was quiet, the other was protesting loudly.
The Policeman in charge asked me to look through the pile of goods on the floor and identify them as mine. I rifled through the stuff but they weren't mine. They were clearly items taken from western travellers but none of it belonged to me. There were trousers, dresses, sandals, watches, rucksacks, novels............but I didn't recognise any of it.
The police were hugely disappointed but then I spotted a tin of powdered milk and some trousers. Strange how you can identify something as mundane as powdered milk as yours, but I'd travelled with it for months. The trousers were far more distinct. They were purple with a strong Paisley pattern in yellow! The kind of trousers now only seen in New Age Festivals or the circus. I know; what was I thinking.
Satisfied with my identification, we all piled back in the vehicles and headed back to where I was attacked. I now had to sit in the front and all the way there I could hear the police trying to silence the louder boy by pummelling his bare feet with the rifle butts against the hard steel of the Land Rover floor. It's not in my nature to condone any kind of violence but I must confess that, at that moment, I didn't care.
The trials of the day were getting to me. I began to feel a little scared. Travelling on a bike gives you ultimate control and the freedom to decide what to do and when to do it. Today everything was in the hands of others. Also, despite the amazing efforts of the police I know had the clothes I stood up in, a tin of dried milk and a pair of very unfortunate trousers.
We stopped about a hundred yards from the edge of the plantation and the two captives were marched into the woods. More waiting around and awkward exchange of smiles with my, now grinning, guard until a line of laughing policemen came out of the forest; carrying my panniers and, brining up the rear, a police man, dressed like an extra in Hawaii Five O, riding my bike! The police were laughing at his attempt to cycle with a buckled front wheel, warped handlebars, in completely the wrong gear. His legs pumped furiously but you could have crawled faster. What a beautiful sight.
A quick search showed that my money and some other stuff was missing, probably taken by the guy with the machete, but I'd gotten most of my belongings back. It seemed miraculous how the police could have tracked the culprits to a different part of the region and get my stuff back.
The Sargent then explained that every time they stopped to talk to people, they were told a little more information. Everyone wanted these guys caught and were only too happy to help. There had been a series of violent attacks on tourists and locals in the last few months and the gang leader was said to carry a gun. Information was passed on by anyone who had it. He said that within a few hours everyone had heard of the assault and were upset by what had happened to me.
I thought this was charming but far fetched. Until we set off back to the Police Station.
My bike had to be put on the roof rack as there was no room in the vehicle itself. We now had two more passengers than when we started. As we drove back to Nkhata Bay the cheering started. All the way down the long hill, outside almost every home, men, women and kids rushed to the side of the road and started cheering. The same people who had stared or waved at me early that morning, as I climbed up the hill, came out of their house and started applauding and ululating in celebration. They could see my bike on the top of the Land Rover and knew that the attackers had been caught.
They seemed to be singing and cheering for me.
back to the heart
My joy turned out to be short lived. At the Police Station it was explained that my bike and all my property was evidence and I couldn't have it back! I had to wait for the circuit judge to come to Nkhata Bay for the Court Sessions. The Police would keep it until the Trial and then it would be returned to me.
I was still in the same situation I was earlier that day. Nowhere to stay, no passport or money, alone in a foreign country. The only thing I could think of to do was to walk back to the Heart Motel and ask for their help. However Mr Phillips had already heard about my plight and took me in, no questions asked. I didn't even have to ask.
He had very little in the world but he shared it with me. At that moment, I was bruised, hurt and scared. It felt like I had nothing in the world.
Apart from this one friend.
I was fed and given the room I'd vacated earlier that day. Never have I been so pleased to lie down in an uncomfortable bed. As I lay there and recalled the events of the day, I felt safe again.
I spent another the 6 weeks at the Heart Motel waiting for the Court case and really got to know the Chirwa family, Kakumbi village and Nkhata Bay. I was there so long I became known as Mr Chris. Little incidents are ingrained in my memory; Kennedy Chirwa with his captivating smile and happy nature, drawing postcards for tourists to pay for his, and his brother's education; the feeling of desperate helplessness when a mother raised her new born child to me and said "Malaria. Malaria", and I was unable to give her my anti malaria tablets or do anything to help her; being taken to a local dance competition as one of the guests of honour, next to the MP; giving a couple of biscuits to some children I passed whilst walking to lake to read my book and a few hours later, the same children appearing at my reading spot, just to give me two mangos in return; a child born whilst I was in Kakumbi being given the name Christina.
The idyllic physical setting I described earlier masks an unremitting poverty faced by the people, every day. Yet these warm hearted people showed me nothing but kindness as I recuperated. As other travellers came and went I stayed and got to know Mr Phillips especially well. He and his family were hard working, productive and always wanted to better themselves. We would spend ages talking about his life and mine. I visited the ancestral village to the south and got to know more about Malawian life. He was a clever, wise and hard working. A good man who had earned the respect everyone showed him. He had chosen not to become a village Chief, yet still people came to him for help and advice. I almost gasped aloud when one day, HE asked ME for my advice on a problem he faced in the village. I felt completely unqualified to give any opinion, yet he wanted to know.
I really liked and respected this man.
My physical bruises healed but for a long while I could see that machete coming down towards me, just before I turned my back on it. I often wondered what might have been if my assailant had not used the flat of the blade. Had twisted his hand slightly. I've met other travellers who've been robbed and developed a suspicious nature; their default position is that everyone is out to get them. That cynicism doesn't sit well whilst travelling or in everyday life. I had to work on not letting this incident stop my travels or hold me back in any way. It would be understandable if this incident had left its scars on me personally and damaged my belief in the inherent goodness of people.
Yet it hasn't. I was re-invigorated by my experience at the Heart Motel. I still have hope in the future. For that I am forever grateful to Mr Phillips Amyioka Chirwa and his family.
I've recently found out that Amiyoka is a given name meaning Tower of Support.
I eventually left Nkhata Bay and continued my journey, ending up on the Cape of Good Hope at the end of Africa 6 months later. I had many other adventures after Nkhata Bay; white water rafting down the Zambezi; peering over the edge of Victoria Falls, staying in a township in South Africa and sitting on Table Mountain looking out at Robben Island. I met hundreds of fascinating characters on my travels and wonderfully, the last person I said hello to, other than the people on the same flight home from Johannesburg Airport, was Nelson Mandela himself!
Yet, it is the memory of Mr Phillips Amiyoka Chirwa and his family that has stayed with me. Over the years I often did nostalgic internet searches for the Heart Motel or Heart Motel Nkhata Bay or Phillips Chirwa but nothing ever came of it. I wondered what happened them and whether they remember me. This dramatic incident in my life could be nothing in the memory of families trying to scratch a living in Africa. After sixteen years I questioned whether I'd confused dates and places or whether it was as dramatic as I recall.
Then in the summer of 2012 I decided to type in Kennedy Heart Motel into Google. Zion Kennedy Phillips Chirwa connected with Growing Voices, an American Charity trying to help in Nkhata Bay! I asked Mel at Growing Voices to forward an email in which I explained who I was and asking if anyone remembered me. She also informed me that Mr Phillips had sadly passed away in 2006.
I waited what seemed like forever but finally got a reply. I was in my car in the carpark of Brecon Tourist Information when an email came through. The family did remember me and were astonished to find out I remembered them. Kennedy, the happy kid who served me banana pancakes and drew postcards, had become the astonishing young man who inspired HOPEmalawi.

GWYNEDD songwriters have contributed to six out of the eight songs which will compete in next month’s Cân i Gymru (Song for Wales) competition on S4C.
The composers battled through a field of more than 120 entries for the competition, and are now working with music producer Meilyr Gwynedd to prepare their song for the grand final, which will be held on March 4 and broadcast live on S4C.
Finalists with links to Gwynedd include Gai Toms and Philip Jones, who hail from Tanygrisiau and Llanfrothen, whose song Braf yw Cael Byw, was inspired by sitting in the beer garden at their local, The Ring in Llanfrothen.
Gai, who is making his third appearance in the competition, has tasted success as a solo artist and as a member of the band Anweledig, while Philip is best known as a member of the band Gwibdaith Hen Frân.
Aled Ellis-Davies, of Caernarfon, is a former member of several successful Welsh bands including Am Dwrw, Amddiffyn and Hitchcock. His song, Pan Mae’r Haul yn Codi, is a tribute to ex-bandmate Tecwyn Lloyd Jones, which he says extends a positive feeling of happiness after a dark period.
Former Ysgol Syr Hugh Owen school friends Peter Jones and Rhys Iorwerth composed Gorffen y Llun, a song about a young man who falls for a beautiful girl he sees in a cafe, while Caernarfon mother and son team, Sian Harris and Gwilym Bowen Rhys wrote Garth Celyn, and are competing for the first time together.
Cain, by Nia Davies Williams and Sian Owen, tells the story of a woman on a beach who philosophises about life.
Nia, hails from the Lln Peninsula, and is studying for an MA in music at Bangor University, while Sian Owen who grew up in Anglesey, works as a translator, writer and freelance editor.
Dim Ond Ffwl sy’n Ffoi passes on the message of the importance of the Welsh language. Composers Derfel Thomas and ‘Rocet’ Arwel Jones originally hail from Nantlle and Anglesey.
The song with the highest total of votes will take the top prize of £7,500, the Cân i Gymru trophy and the chance to represent Wales at the Pan Celtic Festival.

MESA, Arizona – Oct. 2, 2019 -- Mesa Community College Administration of Justice Studies faculty member Liz (Bootsie) Martínez R. is the author of three articles pertaining to police media relations appearing in law enforcement publications.
Effective Police-Media Relations is in the August 2019 International Association of Chiefs of Police's "Police Chief" magazine; Media Coverage: When It Doesn’t Work Well… and When It Does is published online at policechiefmagazine.org; and Who Causes Trouble? appears online at lawofficer.com.
Martínez, who spent a career as a journalist covering law enforcement and security issues and is a former senior investigator for a New York State agency, said the articles address how law enforcement agencies can work effectively with the media, as well as why it has become socially acceptable to bash the police. She cites the recent negative incidents of a customer who felt uncomfortable seeing six uniformed officers drinking coffee in a Starbucks in Tempe, as well as community members who repeatedly dumped buckets of water on police officers in New York City.
Law enforcement agencies can use social as well as mainstream media to communicate important and positive information to the community, and partner with media outlets as a way to combat negative feelings, according to Martínez.
She quotes Detective Greg Bacon of the Tempe Police Department’s Media Relations Unit and Sergeant Detective Squad Supervisor Bill Decker (Ret.) of the New York Police Department, among others.
“Negative messages and media stories are always quicker to gain the spotlight than the positive ones,” Martínez said. “An effective way to combat anti-police feeling is to work with media outlets, engage on social media and maintain good relationships with reporters.”
Martínez states that law enforcement agencies and the media have a symbiotic relationship, with both entities depending on each other.
“The key for law enforcement is to be genuine about what information is available and what cannot be released at that time,” Martínez said. “Police agencies need to develop positive relationships with reporters and interact with the media on a respectful, person-to-person basis.”
She adds, "At Mesa Community College, we teach our students to look at crime and officer-involved incidents from multiple points of view. Each participant in an incident sees it in his or her own way, but many things converge in an incident, and it's important to look at all sides to determine why and how police-community interactions play out."

College Counseling Advisory Board
It’s not uncommon for independent schools to invite admission representatives from colleges and universities to visit their campuses. These visits often are educational and serve as an opportunity to learn more about each school. This year, The Hill School’s College Counseling Office took a bold approach to this traditional concept. The Office invited representatives from seven universities and colleges to serve on an advisory board that not only provided the visitors with an in-depth view of a student’s Hill experience, but also provided feedback on how Hill’s College Counseling office can best represent Hill to colleges.
On Tuesday, January 29, 2019, representatives from Yale University, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, Case Western Reserve University, Trinity College, Temple University, Franklin & Marshall College, and Johns Hopkins University traveled to Hill to serve on the first-ever College Counseling Advisory Board.
“We wanted a breadth of representation among colleges and universities,” noted Ellen O’Neill Deitrich, Hill’s director of college counseling, who organized this innovative program.
The goal, according to Deitrich, is for these individuals to get to know Hill better. “These are the people who are reading our students’ applications,” she said. “I want them to visit so they can really get to know The Hill School.
“We also want feedback on how we – as an office – can best represent Hill to colleges.”
Their first stop during their two-day sojourn was the Hobart’s Run Office, where the group met with Senior Director of Institutional Public Relations and Hobart’s Run Communications Cathy Skitko, who offered a presentation about Hill’s distinctive neighborhood improvement initiative; the Pottstown community; and – importantly – the School’s commitment to the town and related options for involvement by our students. Hill students are engaged with Pottstown’s revitalization in a variety of ways, Skitko noted, from helping to beautify the historic Edgewood Cemetery located near campus, to participating in the Pottstown Area Social Innovations Lab run by Hobart’s Run as well as numerous service projects benefitting local nonprofits.
“Living and learning in a town like Pottstown creates opportunities that students who attend other schools might not encounter,” Skitko said. “We believe students’ experiences as part of a community that is reinventing itself can help shape who they are when they head off to college, and we were eager to share these insights with the advisory board.”
The next day, the representatives were fully immersed in life at Hill. They attended classes; spoke candidly with students during an hour-long panel discussion; enjoyed a traditional seated lunch; and even had a special “hard hat” tour of Hill’s Dining Hall, which currently is undergoing renovations and due to reopen in March.
They spent most of the afternoon learning about other initiatives also distinctive to Hill: the GUTS (Girls Understanding Their Strengths) organization; student well-being programs, Eudemonia and Flourishing at School; and the Student Philanthropy Council. In addition, they heard from Director of Learning Research and Development Jason Coady about place-based learning initiatives, and from Associate Headmaster Len Miller, who led a session about Hill’s ongoing Strategic Design process. That evening, during a dinner reception with faculty members, the group was treated to a performance by Hilltones and Hilltrebles, Hill’s select a cappella groups.
"There is clearly a commitment to activities Hill students choose to pursue outside of the classroom,” observed John Young, vice president for enrollment and dean of admissions at Hobart and William Smith Colleges. “They make a conscious choice about choosing two or three things they're really passionate about, which can have an impact on their future."
Lindsay Acevedo, associate director of admissions at Yale University, also was impressed with what she heard from Hill School students and faculty.
“You're doing really great things here at Hill, especially in regards to a student's well-being,” noted Acevedo. “We (admission reps) know that academic preparation is always strong at Hill. However, with this holistic approach students can't help but leave here more self-aware. That will serve them well in college."
Changes Made in College Counseling Upon Deitrich's Arrival to The Hill
Deitrich arrived at The Hill in 2016, bringing with her many years of college counseling experience. Her previous roles include associate director of college counseling and grade dean at The Shipley School in Bryn Mawr; director of college counseling at Woodlynde School in Strafford; and assistant director of college counseling and history teacher at the William Penn Charter School in Philadelphia. She also is a member of the advisory boards at several different colleges.
Since her arrival, she has made some significant changes in the College Counseling Office. Students now are assigned a college counselor during their fourth form (sophomore) year, giving the staff more time to get to know students. Also, fourth and fifth formers (juniors) now meet with their college counselors before selecting their courses for the coming year. Deitrich contributed to the decision of Hill adopting the use of a weighted GPA, which reflects greater rigor in a student’s curriculum.
“Our office now works more closely with the Academic Office,” stated Deitrich. “We work with them at the beginning and end of the course selection process, especially focusing on the appropriate level of rigor in an individual student’s curriculum to allow for the best learning experience because this, in turn, creates the strongest foundation for future academic success.”
She felt the College Counseling Advisory Board was a great opportunity for schools to get to know Hill and learn more about the changes in the office, as well as an opportunity to learn from college admission reps about what Hill is doing well and how we can improve.
"It's a bold decision, but a confident one,” remarked Young. “By inviting us here you're opening yourself up, but you're also getting seven raving fans. That's the neat part about it."
Audit of College Counseling Office
On Thursday morning, the representatives conducted a comprehensive audit of Hill’s College Counseling Office. In addition to meeting with the rest of the office staff (Hill has a total of six college counselors and an administrative assistant), the representatives were given examples of letters of recommendation along with transcripts and grade distribution reports.
According to Deitrich, the initial feedback the office received was positive, and she hopes to have a full report by the end of February.
At the conclusion of the visit, Deitrich was overwhelmed by its success. “Our kids and our faculty were so generous with their time and they conveyed so much positive energy,” she remarked.
While Deitrich originally thought each school would serve on the advisory board for three years, the process now is being reimagined after the successful first visit: Deitrich may involve more new schools sooner than expected.
“I was told we have something unique here at Hill and other schools need to experience it,” remarked Deitrich.
z “We’re going to be flexible. After we receive the feedback from this first group, we’ll reassess and determine what we need to do next year. The feedback will drive the agenda and the experience for the future.”
While the same college admission representatives may not return to campus next year, one thing is for certain: They want our students to be successful.
"This is more like a partnership between the role of Hill's College Counseling Office and us as college admission representatives,” noted Acevedo. “It's about how we can both help Hill students be better prepared for success in college."


STAND. COM. REP. NO. 1183
RE: H.B. No. 714
Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi
President of the Senate
Thirty-First State Legislature
Regular Session of 2021
State of Hawaii
Your Committee on Labor, Culture and the Arts, to which was referred H.B. No. 714, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO PUBLIC EMPLOYMENT COST ITEMS,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to appropriate or authorize funds for fiscal biennium 2021-2023 for collective bargaining cost items, including salary and other cost adjustments, for public employees in collective bargaining unit (4) and their excluded counterparts.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Budget and Finance; Hawaii Health Systems Corporation; University of Hawai‘i System; and Hawaii Government Employees Association, AFSCME Local 152, AFL-CIO.
Your Committee finds that negotiations between the exclusive representative of collective bargaining unit (4) and the public employer are currently in progress. Allowing this measure to advance through the legislative process provides a vehicle to appropriate or authorize necessary funds if an agreement is reached or an arbitration award is issued prior to the end of the Regular Session of 2021.
Your Committee has amended this measure by making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity and consistency.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Labor, Culture and the Arts that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 714, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 714, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, and be referred to your Committee on Ways and Means.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Labor, Culture and the Arts,
BRIAN T. TANIGUCHI, Chair

Are you having one of those days? Do you ned everyone just to calm down & take a nap (including yourself!)? Or maybe you’re having trouble sleeping at night? Here is the smoothie recipe for you. Also, it might be the best tasting smoothie recipe I’ve created thus far. For reals.
Everybody Calm Down! Smoothie
1/2 cup Shredded Wheat mini squares (I used Simply Nature Original Shredded Wheat from ALDIs) Why? B6 helps you sleep. It helps your body produce Melatonin. So, check the side of the box & make sure it’s in there before you add it
2 tbs of honey “Honey can promote relaxation and help ease you to sleep at night. The natural sugar found in honey raises our insulin slightly and allows tryptophan, the compound famous for making us sleepy after eating turkey at Thanksgiving, to enter our brains more easily. Taking a spoonful of honey before bed can help you get restful sleep.” Dr. Oz
1 banana Source of potassium (de-stressed & restorer) & Also a source of B6.
1 cup of milk Doesn’t actually make you sleepy, but it helps your body to relax & coats your stomach, so you feel full.
1 cup of oats “oatmeal triggers a rise in blood sugar, which in turn triggers insulin production and the release of sleep-inducing brain chemicals. Oats are also rich in vitamin B6, an anti-stress vitamin, and melatonin.” Forbes
1 scoop of vanilla protein powder “protein ingested immediately before sleep is effectively digested and absorbed, thereby stimulating muscle protein synthesis and improving whole-body protein balance during post exercise overnight recovery.” PubMed & “High-protein foods promote sleep, and they also fight acid reflux” US News
That’s all that’s in there. Tastes great. It also helps you calm down & get ready for sleep.
If you try it, let me know what you think.

As mentioned earlier, 36ED F5.6 is expected to be available this summer.
The optimized new reducer is planned to be released as well. Image circle might not be as large as the one to cover full frame. But focal length will be shorter than 200mm. So this should be great wide-field scope for smaller sensors.
The name of Mini Borg doesn’t sound proper any more since this is further smaller system. So I’m thinking it is better to newly classify each scope based on the tube diameter like
1) Series 45 : 36ED
2) Series 60 : 45EDII, 50Ach, 50FL, 60ED, 71FL (& 36ED with adapter)
3) Series 80 : 71FL/77EDII/89ED
4) Series 115 : 125SD

Deccan Chronicle| subhash k jha
Published on: May 15, 2017 | Updated on: May 16, 2017
Word is that the Khan parivaar plans to show her journey on the big screen.
Salim Khan, Helen and Salman Khan
Helen, the cabaret queen of the 1960s and 70s, remains unmatched in the grace and sophistication she brought onscreen. Not many know she was a refugee from Burma who grew up in Mumbai in abject poverty and began dancing to support her family.
Helen’s journey from the dancing diva to Mrs Salim Khan is worthy of a cinematic treatment. And that’s exactly what the Khan parivaar intends to do.We now hear that a biopic on the life of the legendary Helen is being planned. Sources close to the Khan family say the Helen biopic would be produced by Salman Khan and scripted by Salim Khan. The million-dollar question is, who will play Helen?

TOLEDO, Ohio — April is Minority Health Month and the work to reduce health disparities and improve health outcomes in Black and brown communities is ongoing.
Toledo resident Melissa Montoyaschuler, 42, was diagnosed with cervical cancer last September after a routine exam. She had no symptoms.
“For me, I was scared. I was scared. I was confused. I didn’t know what to do or how to go about it,” Montoyaschuler said.
She was concerned about what would happen next. She thought about her two children and wanting to see them grow up.
“I’ve lived but I wanted to see what they turned into, what they were going to do. But I also know that if it was my time and He was ready or me, I just wanted to make them prepared for it.”
The support she received was important as she wrestled with wanting to face this challenge alone.
“I wanted to shut everybody out, I wanted to go through it by myself, be that strong person.”
But she realized the value of the support of others.
“It’s not about strength, it’s about faith," she said. "And the more faith you have in the people helping, the more you feel that love and that’s what’s going to help heal you.”
Melissa Montoyaschuler's cancer journey
Because of personal and family reasons she put off this routine exam for three years.
“I put my own personal needs on the backburner which a lot of parents do, which is sad because we should be thinking about ourselves.”
Montoyaschuler also had a level of mistrust of the system.
But when she met with Mercy Health's Gynecologic Oncology Physician Assistant Alyssa Kitts and the rest of the medical team about the course of treatment, Montoyaschuler felt like she mattered.
Kitts said it is sometimes difficult for people of color to seek out health screenings.
“Cervical cancer specifically has a higher incidence and mortality in people of color, the reason for that a lot of times is lack of screening, lack of guidelines whether it’s on the provider or the patient,” Kitts said.
She said establishing a trusting relationship for all of her patients, especially patients in a minority group, is important.
“I want those people to feel comfortable seeing someone who looks like them and can maybe relate to them and to be able to share a journey with them,” Kitts said.
She finds that the perception of medical providers can often be negatively skewed.
“These challenges come up when we lose trust in our providers and our medical system in general. Unfortunately, we’re slandered with a lot of social media and news coverage and things like that too.”
Kitts said there are biases that need to be overcome and how it’s important to find a system and provider you trust and speak up when something feels off with your body.
“There are biases out there and we have to learn to break down those barriers and the best way to do that is to get out there and advocate for our patients and ourselves.”

NVAA Blame Online Publications For Declining Sales
THE Newspaper Vendors Association Abuja (NVAA) has blamed online publications for the declining sale of newspapers in Nigeria in the past two years.
According to them, many people do not bother about buying the hard copies because the stories are already online where they are freely accessible, before papers hit the news. Online news platforms, like The Cable, Premium Times, Sahara Reporters and some other first tier publications are renowned for breaking news on the Internet media space.
Chairman of NVAA, Samuel Jimoh, while lamenting the development recently at the formal inauguration of the newly elected executives of the council, called on media organisations to help them by prolonging the breaking of news online, until the hard copies have been sold to readers.
He also said that poor welfare had affected their members, as most of them get knocked down or killed while chasing vehicles in traffic owing to the dearth of newsstands which would have made readers stop by to buy papers.
“As you know, we are the ones on the street and know better concerning the sales of newspaper. Since the advent of the social media, we have been having so many challenges concerning the sales of paper.
“This is because, before the arrival of the papers, the stories are already on the Internet and since many people are accessible to it freely, they don’t consider buying of papers any longer; that has been a great threat to our survival,” he said.
He also stated that NVAA had called out to various media organisations to desist from posting information and news item online, noting that it would compel readers to buy the papers.
“We are not saying that news should not be posted online because we know that it is a global trend but we are saying that the idea of sending it before the print comes out should be stopped. If they can give us the grace of posting this stories by noon, after we might have made sales, it will help us out,” he added.
Jimoh also highlighted the risk newspaper vendors go through everyday, saying members occasionally get knocked down while running after vehicles to make sales.
“If all media houses will consider the construction of newsstands, it will help us a great deal. We have written to so many media houses in this respect and all we get from them is disappointment. We don’t need to run after vehicles to sell our papers. If we are well organised and well coordinated, people will come to buy from us.”

Bread Pudding with Whiskey Sauce
Great recipe. I read all the reviews then tailored to my tastes.
PUDDING: Used 4 eggs, made w heavy cream instead of milk and added water to add for more liquid as noted, and with the last cup of liquid I used 1/2 & 1/2 then scalded to flavor. I beat the eggs separately, so could I could heat cream, butter, sugar. Added cinnamon and vanilla to the cream mix to my taste for the pudding base. Cooled cream mix, then very slowly added beaten eggs. Make sure it's cool enough or you might get cooked eggs! Did not use pecans. Will use raisins or sultanas next time and may plumb overnight with whiskey, water mixture. Once my bread was ready, I used a stock pot allow liquids and dry to mix. Placed bread first, then gently added the warm liquid. Left it to soak about 15 min. Then transferred to baking pan. Oven at 300-325 and baked for 70 min. Just check, when knife comes clean, it's done.
SAUCE: I doubled the cream; two TBSP butter, 1tsp cornstarch dissolved in small amt water, use powdered sugar. Cook til thick, then add whiskey and cook 5 min more. Cooks out most of alcohol but very smooth.
I'm a lover of bread pudding so my recipe is modified based on what I have loved in other versions eaten

The Wall Street Journal and other leading publications are reporting that plans are afoot in Washington to issue a pricing transparency mandate that will affect how Americans shop for, receive, and pay for healthcare services in America. According to the reporting, the White House is developing a strategy aimed at bending the healthcare cost-curve by giving consumers greater access to healthcare pricing before they receive services.
The mandate is expected to require insurers to publicize the negotiated rates they pay for services, and require hospitals and physicians to provide patients with a “total price for care” before consumers receive services. It builds on a mandate that took effect in January, which required hospitals to post their prices online. The goal: bring greater transparency to the healthcare market for consumers, so they can make better choices.
We asked Bill Krause, VP of Experience Solutions, to help us understand Change Healthcare’s perspective on this news, and on the issues of price transparency and consumer engagement overall. We also asked Bill to share his advice to payers and providers who are following this news and challenged by the increasing “retailization” of healthcare.
On today’s show, we discuss:
