Zen at War offers a penetrating look at the close relationship that existed between Zen Buddhism and Japanese militarism prior to World War II. Using the actual words of leading Japanese Zen masters and scholars, the author shows that Zen served as a powerful spiritual and ideological foundation for the fanatic and suicidal spirit displayed by the imperial Japanese military. At the same time, the author tells the dramatic and tragic stories of the handful of Buddhist organizations and individuals that dared to oppose Japan's march to war. He follows this history up to the recent apologies of several Zen sects for their support of the war, and the reemergence of what he calls corporate Zen in postwar Japan.
"Sinopsis" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
Zen at War is a wake-up call for all Buddhists. Brian Victoria has shown in a passionate and well documented way that Buddhism is not immune to the kind of distortions that have been used throughout human history by virtually all of the worlds religions to justify so-called holy wars.
John Daido Loori, Roshi, Abbot of Zen Mountain Monastery Author of The Heart of Being
Zen at War is a stunning contribution to our understanding of Japanese militarism and the broader issue of war responsibility as it continues to be addressed (and ignored) in contemporary Japan. Brian Victoria's great sensitivity to the perversion and betrayal of Buddhism's teachings about compassion and non-violence makes his indictment of the role played by Imperial Way Buddhists in promoting ultranationalism and aggression all the more strikingand all the more saddening.
Professor John W. Dower, Harvard University Author of War Without Mercy: Race and Power in the Pacific War
In this carefully documented study, Brian Victoria discloses the incredible intellectual dishonesty of Japanese Buddhists who perverted their religion to a jingoistic doctrine of support of the emperor and imperial expansion during the period 1868-1945. Good job! We must face this dark side of our heritage squarely.
Robert Aitken, Roshi, Honolulu Diamond Sangha Author of The Mind of Clover and The Practice of Perfection
Brian D. Victoria is a Soto Zen priest and director of the Buddhist Studies Program in Japan at Antioch College. He has published widely in both Japanese and English, including Zen Master Dogen, which he co-authored, and Zen War Stories.

Re: Peter Maher In The Modern HW Scene
For a start he would be verry marketable. An Irish contender with a huge punch.
You could match him against weak opposition and fighters lacking durability to build him up. You could probably also build him up to about 195 lbs if you wished to do so.
Does anybody have his tale of the tape to see exactly what we are working with?

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted emergency use authorisation (EUA) to Phosphorus for its at-home saliva test for Covid-19.
Developed at Phosphorus’ CLIA laboratory in New Jersey, US, the Covid-19 test uses OraSure’s Oragene ·Dx (OGD-510) saliva collection device for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 virus.
Customers can order the test through the online checkout process at the company’s website. They will be required to complete a medical questionnaire, which will be reviewed by an independent physician for approval. Once approved, the company will ship a sample collection kit to the customer’s address.
The customers will receive test results within 72 hours, accompanied by a consultation from medical personnel.
Phosphorus has partnered with IRMS Institute for Reproductive Medicine and Science at Saint Barnabas to conduct the Covid-19 testing.
The FDA emergency use approval follows a rigorous round of validation studies, in addition to the synthetic sample performance study initially required by the agency, the company noted.
Furthermore, the test is the second at-home unsupervised saliva test to be approved by the FDA.
Phosphorus co-founder and CEOAlexander Bisignano said: “Covid-19 testing is essential to getting life back to normal. This test will allow people from coast to coast to be tested from the safety of their homes with the oversight of medical personnel.
“We thank the FDA for their hard work throughout this crisis and the quick action they have taken. We look forward to helping the country re-open.”
In 2017, Phosphorus introduced new genetic tests for the detection of hereditary cancers.
The company offers advanced genomic tests based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies to healthcare providers and hospitals.

Asking your wife for an open marriage is a ridiculous request and it stands unsubstantiated.
The wife in question was also not thought well of by others and came across as an attention seeker.
Why the heck would anyone want an “open marriage”?
If you’re that unhappy, leave.
I agree that it’s unsubstantiated. When was the last time you recorded your bedroom conversations? I expect there were only two people witness to the conversation and we’ve heard from both of them. Asking for substantiation is silly.
> Why the heck would anyone want an open marriage? If youre that unhappy, leave.
Personally I agree. But I don’t assume everyone is like me. Open marriages do exist; a friend of mine from college is in one. (Or was, last time we spoke. It was a number of years ago.) To assert that it’s impossible because you don’t understand it is, well, kind of ostrich-like, don’t you think?
Sorry, but that’s the way I see it. As I said, I think we’re going to have to agree to disagree on this one.

Pakistan Oilfields Ltd (POL) reported its 2QFY23 earnings earlier today, wherein the company posted Profit After Tax (PAT) of PkR 5.95bn (EPS: PkR20.97) for the quarter, lower by 29%QoQ—lower than our estimate of PkR24.30/sh
· Net sales clocked in at PkR14.02bn for the period, down by 12% on a QoQ basis, majorly on the back of declining oil prices (down 15%QoQ) during the period. Overall, total hydrocarbon production remained flat QoQ, but is estimated to have declined by 12%YoY during 1HFY23 period.
· Exploration expenses clocked in at PkR0.95bn (down 117%QoQ), on account of no significant dry wells costs during the period. To recall, the company posted PkR4.35bn in dry well costs during the 1QFY23, on account of DGK-1 (DG Khan Block), taking total exploration expenses to PkR4.53bn for the period
· Other income for the period clocked in at PkR2.1bn, down 68%QoQ, possibly due to minimal exchange gains during the period. Finance costs also recorded a reversal of PkR486mn during the period, possibly due to exchange gains on ‘provision for decommissioning costs’
· Along with the result, company also announced an interim cash dividend of PkR20.0/ sh, well below our expectations of PkR45/sh. We have a Buy rating on the stock, with a Dec’23 TP of PkR600/sh, representing an upside potential of 36% from last close.

David Norgrove, the chairman of an official review on family justice which is published today, said some couples used their parents as a “weapon” during contested divorce cases.
The comments came as Mr Norgrove unveiled plans for parents to go through more “do-it-yourself” divorces to speed up settlements.
He also confirmed plans, disclosed by The Daily Telegraph yesterday, that divorced fathers would be denied a legal right to a relationship with their children.
He said grandparents could be “extremely important in a child’s life” but some made problems worse during divorces by demanding the right to have contact with the children.
He said: “Grandparents can be used by parents as a way of getting at their ex-partner. Grandparents are not always straightforward in the way they behave and the result can be damage to children.
“There is no evidence that courts unreasonably refuse the ability of a grandparent to bring an application for contact with their grandchildren.”
Mr Norgrove continued: “Not all grandparents are good grandparents. One of the separating parents can use his or her parents as a weapon against the other partner.
“We should not be putting all the emphasis on the rights of the adults. The question is wrong: it should be what is in the best interests of the child, not what is right for the adults.”
Mr Norgrove’s 220-page review did not recommend any legal right for grandparents to see their grandchildren after a couple divorced. Instead they would continue to be able to apply for access through the courts.
In his family justice review, Mr Norgrove recommended that parents should be encouraged to carry out more divorces using “do-it-yourself” websites.
They would be required to go through a series of mediation steps before getting to court, guided by a new website where couples could download divorce forms. He said: “At the moment it is very hard to get hold of the forms. The aim is to make it easier for people to do it themselves because the tendency is for it all to get out of control.”
Divorcing couples should also agree a contract, possibly when they first have children, setting out who would look after the children after a separation or divorce.
The parenting agreements could also set out access arrangements for grandparents.
“It would be signed and it would be taken into account by the court if they ended up fighting it out but … it could not be made legally binding,” Mr Norgrove said.
Cuts to legal aid for divorcing couples would see more people representing themselves in court cases, he said. He was concerned about a new requirement for men and women to provide evidence of abuse before getting legal aid to divorce their abusive spouse. Mr Norgrove said: “You have to have reported it to the police and have it investigated by the police for it to be acceptable evidence as a case for legal aid. It is quite a high hurdle.”
He said he wanted to establish a six-month cap on the time it takes for child care proceedings to go through courts. The average is currently 61 weeks.
More judges would be encouraged to hear cases from start to finish, and a new Family Justice Service would make sure agencies and professionals worked better together.
His recommendations, he said, were aimed at putting children at the heart of the family justice system, and avoiding court battles. He said: “All the evidence is that you cause more damage to children, because the children get caught in the middle of the battle.”
Mr Norgrove defended his decision not to include a legal right for divorced fathers to have a “meaningful relationship” to see their children, which had been recommended in his interim report in April.
He said that evidence from other jurisdictions such as Australia suggested that children were more damaged when courts imposed time limits on access to different parents.
“All the evidence is that it pushes judges into ordering more time with both parents than is good for the child,” he said.
In the foreword to his review, he added: “We are aware that some will be disappointed by our decision to recommend against a legal presumption around shared parenting and to step back even from the recommendations we made in this respect in our interim report.
“The law cannot state a presumption of any kind without incurring unacceptable risk of damage to children. Progress depends on a general social expectation of the full involvement of both parents in the lives of their children before separation, not on changes in the law.”


STOMP protocol support

Needs to map the technologies between STMP & XATMI services, servers and clients.
Protocol description: https://stomp.github.io/stomp-specification-1.2.html
Seems like if client does subscribe to queue, we will need to advertise queue by "stompsrv" and map all subscribed clients to opened service. Thus if we do tpacall("CLIENT_QUEUE"), then it will be sent to all clients known by stompserver.
Also we will need a stomp server which can do the stomp server which would allow to act as client. i.e. we could do the stomp client calls. But needs to think about this how we pass the queue and how we get response back from server?

The trial of a person accused of killing a Toronto police officer practically three years in the past is anticipated to listen to from the officer’s associate on Thursday.
Det. Const. Lisa Forbes is about to take the stand on the trial of Umar Zameer.
Zameer has pleaded not responsible to first-degree homicide within the loss of life of Const. Jeffrey Northrup.
Northrup, 55, died on July 2, 2021, after he was run over by a automotive in an underground parking storage under Toronto Metropolis Corridor.
Courtroom has heard Northrup and Forbes have been in plain garments once they arrived on the storage to analyze a stabbing. Zameer was not concerned within the stabbing.
Of their opening remarks to the jury on Wednesday, prosecutors and defence attorneys painted drastically completely different footage of the occasions that led to Northrup’s loss of life.
The defence argued the officer’s loss of life was a “tragic accident” attributable to a misunderstanding and worry, whereas the Crown pinned it on a sequence of selections made by Zameer over a number of brief moments.
Jurors watched safety footage from the realm round Metropolis Corridor in addition to the storage on Wednesday, however have been advised the video from the parking space is proscribed.

Gardens of the Arts and Crafts Movement by Judith B. Tankard
The rich legacy of the Arts and Crafts Movement has been enthusiastically hailed by historians, architects, and designers. Most known for its influence on architecture and art, the movement also played an important role in the garden world by defining the garden as a harmonious component of the home. In Gardens of the Arts and Crafts Movement, Judith B. Tankard surveys the inspirations, characteristics, and development of garden design during the Arts and Crafts Movement. Tankard presents a selection of houses and gardens from the era, with an emphasis on the diversity of designers who helped forge a special approach to garden design. Illustrated with nearly 300 illustrations and photographs and packed with examples from Europe and North America, this is an essential resource for designers and gardeners interested in the era.


A new report by the Open Government Partnership (OGP) on the Irish Government’s transparency has found no progress in anti-corruption measures or climate policy development. Raj Chari, a Professor of Political Science in Trinity, conducted the report and presented his findings at a launch in Trinity’s Atrium. The report also found significant progress made in regulating charities.
Developed as part of Ireland’s second National Action Plan, 2016-2018, to encourage civic participation and transparency, the report’s main findings include little or no progress in strengthening anti-corruption powers and highlighted the failure by the Government to introduce conflict of interest measures providing for a new ethics regime. The need for a new ethics regime to identify, manage and disclose potential conflicts of interest in the public sector was highlighted in the report and concluded that the Government’s commitment to open governance and transparency was lacking.
A second important finding included the failure to demonstrate transparent climate policy development or improve the transparency of government service providers and introduce modern document management procedures. The report, however, did praise the investments in data infrastructure to provide higher quality open data and the substantial progress made in developing a Code of Practice for the Governance of Charities.
Professor Chari’s report highlighted the need for more awareness-raising among citizens to strengthen participation in the OGP process and the formalisation of permanent dialogue forums. Speaking about the report, Chari said: “While development of the action plan involved civil society proposals, the state decided on the final commitments, and the implementation lacked regular consultation. Moving forward, the Government could establish a multi-stakeholder forum to consolidate civil society interests during the development of the next action plan, and establish an Independent Review Group to ensure consultation during implementation.”
Ireland began its formal participation in OGP in May 2013, when the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform (DPER) introduced Ireland’s first National Action Plan, 2014-16.
Based in Washington DC, the OGP covers 75 countries and was launched in 2011. It’s steering committee is made up of government representatives drawn from these countries and aims to secure commitments from governments to their citizenry to foster transparency, increase civic participation, fight corruption, and promote new technologies to strengthen governance.

MMDA opens more bike lanes
Two bike lanes on Edsa in Quezon City will be open by the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) which wants to encourage commuters to use other alternative mode of transportation in anticipation of the monstrous traffic jams in the next few months. The MMDA on Wednesday will inaugurate the fifth bike lane located on a stretch of Ortigas to Santolan (northbound) on Edsa and the sixth bicycle lane from White Plains from Edsa to Temple Drive. MMDA Chair Francis Tolentino stressed the convenience of using bicycles as an alternative and eco-friendly mode of transportation with the expected worsening in traffic flow once 15 major road projects get underway. “We are adding more bicycle lanes to promote street and neighborhood identity, increase foot and bike traffic and reduce vehicle congestion along major roads,” Tolentino said. At the opening of the bike lanes on Wednesday, the MMDA would likewise launched a bike-sharing program called “Bike-kadahan.” The concept of the bike-kadahan is bicycle-sharing, wherein interested bike riders may use bicycles provided free by the MMDA. Riders just have to present a valid identification card in exchange for a card indicating the bike number. The card should be surrendered at the exit area where the bike should also be returned. “The bike-kadahan is designed to promote the use of bicycles as an alternative mode of transportation,” Tolentino said. Under the scheme, a small trailer truck would be used as mobile bicycle shelters on designated bicycle lanes in various parts of Metro Manila. Niña P. Calleja

Tom Cohen conducting GNAWA! © Ariel Efron
GNAWA!, STAGED INTERPRETATION OF MOROCCAN MYSTIC MUSICAL CEREMONY, COMES TO THE BARBICAN ON FEBRUARY 5 IN CONDUCTOR TOM COHEN AND HIS JERUSALEM ORCHESTRA EAST & WEST’S UK DEBUT EVENING FUSES MOROCCAN TRIBAL TRADITIONS WITH MODERN JAZZ
London’s Barbican Centre is set to host an extraordinary evening of Gnawa, as musicians are brought together from Morocco and across the Levant to present an evening that will sweep audiences up in a whirlwind of sound and colour, of rhythm and magic, of singing and dancing, in a typical mix of the traditional and the innovative from Tom Cohen and his Jerusalem Orchestra East & West.
This mystical and intriguing musical style, whose roots go back to Sidi Belal Ibn Rabah, a close companion of the Prophet Muhammad and the first muezzin, has aroused enormous interest throughout the world in recent years. The ritual structure, the trance experience and the connection of music to the worlds of passion and devotion, make Gnawa one of the hottest styles in the world of music today.
Both conductor and orchestra are making their UK debuts and will co-lead the evening with the head of the ceremonies, Mehdi Nasoli, who will come from Morocco with his traditional gimbiri and the energies of a tribal healer. Also arriving from Morocco will be a group of Koyos musicians who play the Karakb (an ancient percussion instrument) that characterizes these mesmerising ceremonies and will enhance the ritual element of the evening.
They will be joined by Israeli pianist Omri Mor, a frequent collaborator with Nasoli, Cohen and his orchestra. Together these musicians will perform, for the first time ever, special arrangements composed by Cohen of original Gnawa works that honour this wonderful musical tradition while giving it a contemporary Western interpretation.
This concert is the perfect musical calling-card for Cohen and the Jerusalem Orchestra East & West. Cohen founded the Orchestra in 2009 to help bridge the cultural divides in Israel and beyond. The Orchestra employs Jewish and Muslim musicians and has performed in Jerusalem and across the Middle East including in Dubai where their performance last year celebrated the establishment of diplomatic harmony between the UAE and Israel. Some of the musicians are classically trained and some play instruments from across the Levant, connecting the North-African and Middle-Eastern regions in a profound manner.
As Artistic Director and Chief Conductor of the Orchestra, Cohen arranges their music. His arrangements combine rhythms and melodies from the Levant with the aesthetics and harmony of Western classical music. The result is a cross-cultural, coherent and organic music unlike any other.
Cohen’s ability to synthesise seemingly disparate genres coupled with his musical leadership have seen him establish orchestras in Morocco, Belgium and Canada. His Moroccan orchestra, Symphonyat, also mixes Jewish and Muslim musicians and frequently performs televised open-air concerts to thousands of people.

By Olatunde Ajayi
Prof. John Olorunmaiye, the former Vice-Chancellor, Crown-Hill University, has called for the adoption and implementation of the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) to enhance the quality of engineering education in Nigeria.
Olorunmaiye made made the call at the second Prof. Olusoji Ofi Distinguished Academic Lecture 2023 organised by the Nigerian Institution of Mechanical Engineers (NIMechE), Ibadan chapter, on Thursday.
He said the adoption of OBE in the training of engineers would make them employable globally.
According to him, OBE emphasises student-centered learning and focuses on output instead of input.
Olorunmaiye, the guest lecturer at the event, listed some of the problems affecting the delivery of high quality engineering education in Nigeria as inadequate number or quality of academic and non-academic staff in many universities.
“We also have excessive number of students in some universities especially public universities, lack of modern equipment or inadequate number of equipment in the laboratories, weak or poor industrial training programmes and poorly motivated staff, among others,” he said.
“Specific and clearly defined outcome must be described to the students to set their own expectations and means to achieve the desired outcome.
“If the students trained in the engineering programmes run in Nigerian universities are to compete well with products of similar programmes trained in developed countries, there is a need to enhance the quality of engineering education,” he said.
Also speaking, the National Chairman, NIMechE, Dr Olufunmilade Akingbagbohun, said that the lecture was apt as it addressed what the country needs for growth and development.
Akingbagbohun said engineering remains the bedrock of growth and development for any country.
“Any nation that aspires to grow or develop requires engineering because the profession is about problem solving,” she said.
She said that NIMechE had created many solutions in engineering with professional development and innovation strategic programme.
“We have started industry academic parley by taking people from industry to the academia to bridge the huge gap between the classroom and industry,” she said.
The celebrant, Prof. Olusoji Ofi, the former Deputy Vice-Chancellor Administration, University of Ibadan (UI), said that the guest lecturer who also graduated from UI represented the original design concept of engineering profession of the university.
Ofi, a Fellow of Nigeria Society of Engineers and the inventor of the first instant powdered pounded yam in the world, thanked NIMechE for the recognition of his contributions to the engineering profession.
Earlier, Chairman, NIMechE, Oyo State chapter, Mr Victor Ogunranti, also a Fellow of Nigeria Society of Engineers, said that the lecture was named after the celebrant to give him a long-deserved proper recognition for his humble sacrifice and service as the doyen of Mechanical Engineering. (NAN)

Sargent opened the scoring with 3:55 left to play in the first period, and added to the lead 10 minutes into the second with an end-to-end rush. In the third, he assisted on Drew Renner's snipe from the slot the found the top-left corner.
In three games against Chaparral this season, Sargent has four goals and four assists.
"He's had such a fantastic year, and he's such a great player for us," Regis Jesuit coach Dan Woodley said. "He's motivated to prove he's one of the best players in the state."
Nicholas Schultz added the final goal goal with 2:07 to play.
The Raiders' smothering defense led to a massive advantage in the shots department, with Regis Jesuit out-shooting Chaparral 39-11. It helped goalie Marco Sandoval, a senior, notch his seventh shutout of the season, and second of the playoffs.
"I thought we were pretty solid defensively," Woodley said. "It was really hard to get an extended period of time — other than the first few shifts — in our zone."
This marks the fourth consecutive year in which Regis Jesuit will play in hockey's championship game. The Raiders have won two of the last three.
"It's unbelievable playing for this program," said Regis Jesuit captain Kale Lone. "It never gets old. The past four years have been — definitely — the highlight of my life so far."
Regis Jesuit will face the winner of of the next semifinal between Valor Christian and Dakota Ridge.

Remember the first time you went to a show and saw your favorite band. You wore their shirt, and sang every word. You didn’t know anything about scene politics, haircuts, or what was cool. All you knew was that this music made you feel different from anyone you shared a locker with. Someone finally understood you. This is what music is about. Music is smooth and cool. Music is rage. Music flows like water. Jazz never seems to begin or end. Music isn’t methodical, but good music isn’t messy either. Music is a conversation, a give and take. Music is the connection and communication between musicians.
If you want to be a rock star or just be famous, then run down the street naked (please don’t do that), you’ll make the news or something. But if you want music to be your livelihood, then play, play, play and play! And eventually you’ll get to where you want to be.
Did you know that music has the ability to control your thoughts, your blood pressure, your emotions, your hair growth, your breath pattern, your digestive process, your sense of smell, your sense of touch, your sense of taste, your sense of sight, your sense of humor? that sounds made up right? Well, yeah. I just thought those out, but feel free to research on them lol
As I read through this post, I first felt like I should delete it. But on a second (or third) thought, I decided to keep it. Someone may find a connection to it and might most probably like to read more and more of my posts based on this semi-relatable post. Anyway, Do well to subscribe to my newsletter so you get more of these anytime I post. Happy music reading

Nope. International waters are tax free.
Do you have to pay taxes on money won in international waters?
You don’t have to live in international waters to achieve paying no taxes. There are several smaller countries that do not levy any taxes on their populations.
Can you open a casino in international waters?
Many US ports do not allow gambling in the territorial waters and the casino winnings are subject to US tax and reporting requirements; hence, many cruise ships close their casinos as they approach territorial waters and allow the casino to reopen beyond the 12 nautical miles zone in international waters.
How far out is international waters for gambling?
A gambling ship is a seagoing vessel of any kind on which gambling takes place. Historically, international waters began just 3 miles (4.8 km) from land in many countries. Gambling ships, like offshore radio stations, would usually be anchored just outside the three-mile limit.
Are winnings from gambling taxable or exempt from tax?
1 A lucky few take home a lot of money. Alas, If you win big while gambling, you do not get to keep every penny. Gambling winnings are fully taxable, and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has ways of ensuring that it gets its share. And it’s not just casino gambling.
Can you legally live at sea?
Seasteading is the concept of creating permanent dwellings at sea, called seasteads, outside the territory claimed by any government. No one has yet created a structure on the high seas that has been recognized as a sovereign state. The term is a blend of sea and homesteading and dates back to the 1960s. …
Is there really no law in international waters?
The high seas are not lawless. Well, not completely. According to international law, a maritime country extends outward some distance from its shoreline. During the 20th century several attempts to develop an international “law of the sea” have been made under the aegis of the United Nations.
Can you do whatever you want in international waters?
Yes. If you denounce citizenship and become a pirate vessel you can do whatever you want in international waters.
Who enforces laws in international waters?
The International Maritime Organization (IMO)
The IMO is held responsible for the security of all international shipping. The IMO also has the responsibility to enforce that ships follow the safety procedures set by the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS).
Can you kill in international waters?
You can’t kill without reason, the planet is governed. Not only you can get charged, but you will (if reported), at the first port of call. You will also get charged for letting someone die, not rescuing someone who might be in danger and leaving someone at open sea in a small boat to fend for themselves.

At the age of about 16, Rudyard Kipling translated this poem. He is the boy described in this paragraph from An English School, in Land & Sea Tales For Scouts and Guides:
'While I was dear to thee and no more favoured youth flung his arms about thy dazzling neck, I lived in greater bliss than Persia's king.'
'While thou wast enamoured of no other more than me, and Lydia ranked not after Chloë, in joy of my great fame I, Lydia, lived more glorious than Roman Ilia.'
'Me Thracian Chloë now doth sway, skilled in sweet measures and mistress of the lyre; for her I will not fear to die, if the Fates but spare my darling and suffer her to live.'
'Me Calais, son of Thurian Ornytus, kindles with mutual flame; for him right willingly I twice will die, if the Fates but spare the lad and suffer him to live.'
'What if the old love come back again and join those now estranged beneath her compelling yoke; if fair-haired Chloë be put aside and the door thrown open to rejected Lydia?'
'Though he is fairer than the stars, and thou less stable than the tossing cork and stormier than the wanton Adriatic, with thee I fain would live, with thee I'd gladly die.'
'Donec gratus eram tibi
nec quisquam potior bracchia candidae
cervici iuvenis dabat,
Persarum vigui rege beatior.'
'Donec non alia magis
arsisti neque erat Lydia post Chloen,
multi Lydia nominis,
Romana vigui clarior Ilia.'
'Me nunc Thressa Chloe regit,
dulcis docta modos et citharae sciens,
pro qua non metuam mori,
si parcent animae fata superstiti.'
'Me torret face mutua
Thurini Calais filius Ornyti,
pro quo bis patiar mori,
si parcent puero fata superstiti.'
'Quid si prisca redit Venus
diductosque iugo cogit aeneo,
si flava excutitur Chloe
reiectaeque patet ianua Lydiae?'
'Quamquam sidere pulchrior
ille est, tu levior cortice et inprobo
tecum vivere amem, tecum obeam lubens.'
There was one boy, however, to whom every Latin quantity was an arbitrary mystery, and he wound up his crimes by suggesting that he could do better if Latin verse rhymed as decent verse should. He was given an afternoon's reflection to purge himself of his contempt; and feeling certain that he was in for something rather warm, he turned "Donec gratus eram" into pure Devonshire dialect, rhymed, and showed it up as his contribution to the study of Horace.Here is the young Kipling's translation:
So long as 'twuz me alone
An' there wasn't no other chaps,
I was praoud as a King on 'is throne —
Happier tu, per'aps.
So long as 'twuz only I
An' there wasn't no other she
Yeou cared for so much — surely
I was glad as could be.
But now I'm in love with Jane Pritt —
She can play the piano, she can;
An' if dyin' 'ud 'elp 'er a bit
I'd die laike a man.
Yeou'm like me. I'm in lovv with young Frye —
Him as lives out tu Appledore Quay;
An' if dyin' 'ud 'elp 'im I'd die —
Twice ovver for he.
But s'posin' I threwed up Jane
An' niver went walkin' with she —
An' come back tu yeou again —
How 'ud that be?
Frye's sober. Yeou've allus done badly —
An' yeou shifts like cut net-floats, yeou du:
But — I'd throw that young Frye ovver gladly
An' lovv 'ee right thru!

SEE Something, SAY Something, DO Something
What does the White Ribbon Symbolise?
The White Ribbon itself is an awareness symbol of anti-violence against women.
What is the White Ribbon Campaign?
The White Ribbon Campaign is a global movement of men and boys working to end male violence against women and was formed by a group of pro-feminist men in London, Ontario in 1991 as a response to the École Polytechnique massacre of female students in 1989. The campaign was intended to raise awareness about male violence against women, with the ribbon symbolising “the idea of men giving up their arms”. White Ribbon is active in over 60 countries.
Illawarra Committee Against Domestic Violence
On a local level, the Illawarra Committee Against Domestic Violence (ICADV) focus is to support agencies, organisations, schools, education providers, and the community. The committee is an interagency of Government and Non-Government agencies/services across the Illawarra that works directly with people experiencing domestic and family violence (DFV).
ICADV receives no Government funding and depends solely on community donations and possible grants to be able to achieve their vision and goals.
As an example, the Illawarra DV support booklet and other resources provide valuable information for the community and services that do the vital and tireless work to keep women, men and children safe. ICADV recourses are available in our local refuges, Physiologists, Councillors, NSW Police Domestic Liaison Officers, Family Support Services, Women’s Support Services, Housing agencies and across the Illawarra. These booklets are handed to people who are experiencing DFV as a guide on understanding DFV, what to do and who to contact.
Donation money is also used to educate our front line services on the best methods of responding to DFV, this is done through educational forums and workshops.
Through the local campaign ICADV has also been able to engage with and involve local schools and organisations in the local community to take a stand and act against men’s violence. As such, our yearly events such as the walk and ride this year will continue as planned and continue to resource local services.
We thank you for your continued support that makes a big difference in our community.
White Ribbon Day is violence against women awareness day. This is a day when communities get together to make a stand to say no to violence against women. In 2018, 71 women killed in Australia by violence and as of 02/10/2019, 44 women have been killed by violence (Destroy the Joint FB). These statistics remain alarmingly high and it is everybody’s issue to help end the violence.
Our theme this year is SEE Something, SAY Something, DO Something. Our speakers on the day will talk about what YOU can do to prevent violence against women.
Say “No” to domestic violence and join us for the annual White Ribbon Day Walk. This is a public event and everyone is welcome.
- Meet at NORTH Wollongong Surf Club at approx 6.50am
- Walk start time is 7.00am
- Walk from North Wollongong Surf Club to the Wollongong Head Light House and return
- Walk time is approx. 40 min (return)
- FREE BBQ breakfast (sponsored by DCJ) bacon and egg sandwiches and fruit, water will be available.
- Information and merchandise stall on site
- Guest Speakers – Lord Mayor Councillor Gordon Bradbury AM and Wollongong Police District Superintendent
- Close approx.: 8.30am
Why is White Ribbon day about raising awareness for stopping men’s violence against women, what about men?
The White Ribbon Campaign (WRC) is a global movement of men and boys working to end male violence against women and girls. It was formed by a group of pro-feminist men in London, Ontario in November 1991 as a response to the École Polytechnique massacre of female students in 1989. ICADV believes that all forms of violence are unacceptable and acknowledges that men and women can be victims. We also acknowledge that the majority of domestic violence victims are women. (see below AIHW)
Can I walk a shorter distance?
Yes, you can walk to where you like .
I want to go to the event but not walk, is that OK?
Yes, you can listen to the speakers and enjoy the breakfast.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, most definitely.
Can I make a donation?
Yes, we will have donation buckets on the day and we appreciate all the help we can get, ICADV is not funded and we rely entirely on community donations. Donations received go towards the printing of our DV Support Booklet, which informs the community of the local domestic and family violence support services available to them and educational recourses and forums for services that directly support people experiencing domestic and family violence.
Will there be white ribbons available?
Yes, please wear one to show your support
What happens if there is bad weather on the day?
If the event is canceled due to extremely bad weather we will post this on the following facebook pages

How long do you cook pork at 350?
Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Advertisement. Place pork chops in a baking pan. Bake 35 minutes in preheated oven, or until the internal temperature of the chops has reached 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
How many minutes per pound do you cook a pork loin?
How long should I cook my pork tenderloin or pork roast? The rule of thumb for pork roasts is to cook them 25 minutes per pound of meat at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Use a thermometer to read the internal temperature of the roast.
How long does it take to cook a pork tenderloin at 375?
Preheat oven to 375° and place tenderloin in the middle of a baking dish. Rub vegetables with olive oil and season with 1/8 teaspoon salt. Scatter them around pork in the baking dish. Roast 30 to 45 minutes (or until a thermometer inserted in tenderloin registers 155°).
What temp should I cook pork tenderloin?
The National Pork Board recommends cooking chops, roasts, loins, and tenderloin to an internal temperature of 145° F, followed by a three-minute rest. Pork tenderloin is hassle-free as it doesn’t take long to cook.
How long do you cook a pork tenderloin at 325?
Coat the loin well, cover and refrigerate overnight. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Baste the pork occasionally while cooking.
What temperature should pork be cooked at in the oven?
The 145°F temperature and the 20-25 minutes per pound are recommended to be safe and are the correct times and temperatures according to the the National Pork Board.
Should I cover a pork loin in the oven?
Cover the pork tenderloin with foil and roast for 30 minutes. Remove foil, spoon some more sauce over the loin and cook for about another 30 minutes or until the loin interior temperature reaches about 145°F. Remove pork loin from oven and cover it with foil to let it rest for about 15 minutes.
Is it best to cook a pork roast covered or uncovered?
TIPS FOR A PERFECT PORK ROAST For a crisp surface on your roast, be sure the oven is fully preheated before putting the roast in and don’t cover the meat while roasting. Searing (quickly browning at high heat) the outside of a pork roast before continuing with cooking is a great way to seal in flavor.
How long does it take to cook 2 pounds of pork?
How Many Minutes Per Pound for Pork Loin? The rule of thumb is usually 25 minutes per pound at 350 °F. This method that I use is the high heat method: you start the roast off at 450 °F for 15 minutes, sear in the juices and then turn down the oven to 300 °F.
Can Pork Tenderloin be a little pink on the inside?
The USDA now lists 145 F as its recommended safe minimum cooking temperature for fresh pork. A pork loin cooked to 145 F might look a little bit pink in the middle, but that’s perfectly all right. In fact, it’s great.
How do you know when pork tenderloin is done?
The USDA recommends cooking chops, roasts, loins, and tenderloin to an internal temperature of 145° F, followed by a three-minute rest. Ground pork should always be cooked to 160° F.
Should I cover my pork loin with foil?
Foil -wrapped pork tenderloin is a great way to prepare this cut of meat to lock in flavor and moisture. Pork loin may not be as apt to dry out, but covering your pan with foil while roasting helps the meat retain its juiciness.
How long do you cook pork at 375?
Cooking A Pork Loin Roast Preheat oven to 375 degrees. If loin is tied, leave string in place for cooking and season. Roast for approximately 20 minutes per pound until the internal temperature reads 145 degrees (don’t be hard on yourself if it’s not perfect!)
How long does it take to cook pork at 400 degrees?
A good rule of thumb is 7 minutes of baking in a 400 degree oven per half inch of meat. If you sear your meat beforehand, reduce that amount of 2 minutes. If your pork chop has a large bone, you may need to add a few minutes to the cooking time. Pork needs to be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F.
How long does it take to cook a 10 lb pork loin?
Whole Pork Loin (boneless) 8- 10 lbs. 145°-160° F. 8-11 min. per.

ERG SES C 04, Interactive Poster Session
Interactive Poster Session
Procrastination is defined as delaying or postponing something in English dictionary (Stevenson, A., 2013). According to Ferrari and Joseph (2018), it can also be expressed as a habit postponement, such as starting or finishing work, despite its negative consequences. In a different definition, postponement is defined as the lack of motivation of the individual due to poor time management, and the failure of the individual to perform a given job (Senecal, Koestner & Vallerand, 1995). General procrastination is defined as postponement of behaviors that should be done in daily life, while academic procrastination especially in schools where the students delay their homework and exam (Haycock, McCarthy ve Sky, 1998). In addition, there are many tasks and responsibilities that students have to take in university life. One of the most important of these responsibilities is that they fulfill their academic duties and achieve the expected level of success (Albay, Gizir, 2011). In the research conducted by Ferrari, O’Callaghan and Newbegin’s (2005), 70% of the students were found to have academic procrastination behavior. In a similar study conducted in Turkey, since postponement was detected in 52% of the students (Uzun Özer, 2009). The widespread occurrence of procrastination behavior among university students also causes academic failure, indicating the seriousness of the problem. Academic procrastination adversely affects academic performance and that students with academic procrastination have a lower academic achievement (Balkis and Duru, 2010). The results of the research on this topic show that students who had a tendency to postpone had lower GPA than those who did not have postponement tendencies (Çakıcı, 2003). Since there is not much research on notes and procrastination habits, the research done by Uzun Özer and colleagues (2009) shows that there is a positive relationship between grades and procrastination like the higher grades, the higher procrastination level.
It is also known that the postponement problem among university students varies according to gender (Berber Çelik and Odacı, 2015). Academic procrastination of gender by Uzun-Özer and et al (2009) the effect of the academic postponement is quite important when examining the effect on and an understanding of the consequences. There are studies showing that female students have more academic procrastination tendencies (Shahnawaz, Wazid add Gupta, 2016) or male students have more academic procrastination than female students (Çıkrıkçı and Erzen, 2016). Jackson (2002) states that men perceive academic studies as feminine and postpone their academic studies such as prepare homework. Therefore, there are controversial results in the literature on gender-based differences in academic procrastination (Çıkrıkçı and Erzen, 2016). This situation is mostly examined by considering cultural factors. Cüceloğlu (2007) said that while children are raised by their families, they are affected by the gender roles of their society and cause them to be different in their behavior. B.U.Özer, et all (2013) suggests that due to cultural differences, academic procrastination and cultural factors should be emphasized in future studies.
The aim of this study is to determine the academic procrastination levels of university students. For this purpose, the relationship between academic procrastination levels and academic average scores of academic students and academic procrastination levels according to gender. Research Model This study was designed in accordance with the quantitative research technique in order to compare and explain the current situation. Inferential research is used to generalize this situation by revealing the ideas, thoughts or attitudes of a large group of people in the past or present. Also, in this quantitative study, a survey method was used. In this way, more participants were reached to increase the likelihood of generating results for the population concerned. Study Group The universe of the study consisted of undergraduate students studying in universities in Turkey. The study group consisted of 406 university students (308 women and 98 men) attending universities in different faculties during the 2018-2019 fall semester. Data Collection Tools First of all to get general information about them is collected. Demographic variables were obtained from the participants with quantitative data collection technique. This technique was used to access the formal information of the participants. A scale was preferred to obtain quantitative data. After that, the scale was applied to detect for academic procrastination. The reason why quantitative data is preferred in this study is that it offers measurable and demonstrable data. Due to the limitation of the sample and the specifics of the subject, various limitations affected the data collection method. However, Academic Procrastination Scales was selected for the participants. Academic Success: GPA is the most commonly used measure of academic success. Academic Procrastination Scale: Academic Procrastination Scale was developed for thesis purposes by Deniz Çiğdem Çakıcı (2003). The scale has 19 questions about academic procrastination and rated on a Likert scales (1-not represent, 5-strongly represent). Limitations In this study, it is necessary to reach many universities in order to generalize and this leads to limitations. Reach all university in Turkey is a difficult situation in some respects. Some limitations are as follows, 1. Measuring academic procrastination 2. Limited time for this study 3. Finding participants for research
The finding from the current study noticed that (a) academic procrastination was adversely associated with academic success (GPA), (b) there aren't any association with gender differences. These findings confirm previous research indicating that academic procrastination is adversely related with academic performance (Balkis & Duru, 2017; Kim & Seo, 2015; Richardson et al., 2012; Rotenstein, et al. 2009; Steel, 2007). First, the t-test result shows that there is no significant difference in the academic postponement of gender [t (331) =.741, p >.01]. The previous study also noticed that there are gender differences in the relationships between academic procrastination, some research results show that male students are more likely to postpone academic tasks and assignments than female (Özer et al. 2009), or female students have more academic procrastination tendencies (Shahnawaz, Wazid add Gupta, 2016). In other words, while the results of the past research show differences between the genders, it is noteworthy that academic postponement habits have no gender difference in this research. This difference may be due to the fact that the difference between gender in the academic sense has been eliminated. Second, the Pearson correlation result noticed that there is a negative correlation between academic procrastination and GPA in university students (r = -.201, p < 01). However, this analysis was performed with the answers of 378 out of 405 participants, because it is available in freshman participants. If the student's academic procrastination grade is low, the overall GPA is high, so s/he can deliver the homework that s/he needs to deliver on time and create enough time to study her or his exams and organize time. Although the sample size of this study allowed the generalization of the findings, further research is needed to determine the factors related to gender differences in the relationship between academic procrastination, academic success, and possible causes.

Prescription pain pills are deadly when abused – that is not news – but the abuse of prescription opiates can also increase the lethal potential of benzodiazepines. This class of drugs includes Xanax and Valium, and are often used in connection with heroin or prescription opiates like Percocet or Vicodin.
According to the Ohio Department of Health, “benzos” were named on 300 death certificates in 2010. That does not imply that benzodiazepines killed 300 Ohioans in 2010, but it was a contributing factor in those deaths. Fatal overdoses in Ohio involving opiates, including heroin, increased from 198 in 2000 to 979 in 2010. Prescription opiates were the leading cause in those deaths, cementing the reality that prescription pain pill abuse is an epidemic in Ohio and across the United States.
“The population that is specifically abusing opiates, it’s not an infrequent thing for them to be using benzodiazepines,” said Orman Hall, the director of the Ohio Department of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services.
Benzodiazepines simply amplify euphoric feelings, just like those from the prescription pain pills. Both classes of drugs are sedatives, so there is a heightened risk for people who abuse the two classes of drugs in combination to just slip into unconsciousness and die.
“In general, people who are going to be on long-term opiate therapy, such as for chronic severe pain disorder, the use of benzodiazepines along with (opiates) carries significant risk. Most physicians who are experienced with addiction or pain management would find the combination of the two risky at best and would be strongly dissuaded,” said Dr. Richard Whitney, a physician who specializes in addiction.
