Little Ones provides a premium service for parents looking for a high quality, trustworthy and established nanny agency. We are a leading provider of nannies, finding the right person for families in London, the UK and around the world. Most parents are worried at the prospect of trying to find a nanny themselves - we are professionals at this, and can handle the whole process for you.
Finding the right nanny means ensuring that the nanny is a kind, empathetic and educated carer for your children. The type of person who will ensure that the children thrive and develop, and who has the flexibility to adapt to your family's lifestyle.
We are highly selective about the nannies we take onto our register. Most of our nannies have worked with us for years, and are highly qualified and experienced. We know them well, and we know the types of families the different nannies will suit. So the best way to set about a nanny search is to tell one of our consultants about your family and your children, and the kind of nanny you are looking for. They'll use their unrivalled experience to find a perfect match for you, whether you have a new baby, school-aged children, or a mix of ages.
Live-in nannies usually go to families who need a nanny for up to 12 hours a day, five days a week. The nanny's contract usually includes a couple of nights of babysitting.
The nanny needs privacy when they are not on duty, so they will need their own bedroom. If you can offer self-contained accommodation for the nanny, or even a separate living space, that's perfect. Most families ensure the nanny has a separate bathroom. Qualified and experienced candidates will be attracted to better living conditions, as we all would.
Part-time nannies will not be with you outside their shift hours, with the exception of any pre-arranged babysitting.
What Will The Nanny Do?
Your nanny will cover the normal childcare tasks, such as preparing the children's meals, washing and ironing their clothes and ensuring that their rooms are clean and tidy. You'll also find that they can bring a range of other benefits, due to their focus on the children. For example, a qualified nanny will help the children with homework if needed, and engage in educational activities suited to the child's age.
Importantly, the nanny will make sure that you are kept informed of your child's developmental milestones and their progress with educational activities.
You can talk to our friendly team at any time for a no-pressure chat about your options and the suitability of a part-time or live-in nanny. If you decide to proceed, we'll keep you fully informed while we search for your perfect nanny.


The Divine Fortune slots game is produced by Net Entertainment. Net Entertainment do make the house edge information of their slots games available and this can be found in the help files of the game (usually accessed by pressing the '?' button at the bottom left of the game window). Net Entertainment games appear to only have one setting.
Will myth and legend grant you the divine ambrosia of progressive wealth?
Divine Fortune is a 5 reel game with 20 paylines and you can bet up to 10 coins on each payline.
The 'Pegasus' symbol is Wild.
There are four bonus features when playing Divine Fortune. The first bonus feature is activated when you receive the Pegasus Wild symbol anywhere on the reels. When this happens you, after you have been paid any win due for the spins, the Pegasus Wild symbol will move down one position on the reels and all other symbols will be respun. This process repeats until all Pegasus Wild symbols have moved off the bottom of the reels.
The second bonus feature is triggered when you receive a Pegasus Wild symbol directly above an already present Pegasus Wild symbol on a respin. When this happens the entire reel will be transformed into Wild symbols and the respins will continue until the all Pegasus Wild symbols have moved off the bottom of the reels.
The third bonus feature is activated when you receive three of more of the 'Lightning Fist' scatter symbol anywhere on the reels. When this happens you will be awarded 5, 8 or 12 free spins depending on the number of Lightning Fist scatter symbols you receive. During the free spins any Pegasus Wild symbols you receive will transform the entire reel into Pegasus Wild symbols. The reels will respin, not counting as part of your free spins, until the last Pegasus Wild symbol moves off the bottom of the reels.
The fourth bonus feature is activated when you have banked at least 3 'Gold Coin' symbols in the urn at the right side of the reels. Gold Coin symbols can only be collected on Pegasus Wild symbol respins. When you trigger free spins your Gold Coin bank is reset to zero. When you have banked 3 Gold Coin symbols the Pegasus Wild respins will continue until all respins have been played before the bonus feature activates. This means that it is possible to collect more than 3 Gold Coin symbols. Once the respins are complete the reels will be replaced with 5 empty reels. The Gold Coins symbols you have collected will be added to the reels in random positions. All other symbols will then be respun with reels that only contain Gold Coin symbols and blank spaces. You star with 3 respins. Each time you receive a new Gold Coin symbol in any position you will be reset to 3 respins. The feature ends when you run out of respins or all 15 symbols are occupied by Gold Coin symbols. At the end of the feature you will be awarded the Minor Jackpot if one row of the reels is full of Gold Coin symbols, the Major Jackpot if two rows of the reels are full of Gold Coin symbols and the Mega Jackpot if all symbol spaces are occupied by Gold Coin symbols.
Divine Fortune is another great example of Net Entertainment's creativity. The game is graphically gorgeous and offers a significant selection of bonus features that add new twists to old features making them interesting and fresh again. They combine this with a House Edge that's certainly within the attractive range to result in a game that's great value for money alongside very entertaining. There's nothing not to like about this game.


Every spring during the months of April and May, I get hundreds of calls from pond owners who seem to be overwhelmed with vegetation problems. They usually state that they began fertilizing in March and had difficulty establishing a desirable plankton bloom (green color). What they fail to say is that there was some vegetation in the pond when they began fertilizing. The reason they couldn't get a bloom was because the vegetation was sucking up the fertilizer.
All vegetation responds to fertilizer, sunlight and moisture. When you go to your pond in late February or early march to begin fertilizing, you should first walk around the pond perimeter and see if you observe any unwanted vegetation growing in the shallows. If you don't see any, but you have had a problem in the past, I suggest you take your casting rod and tie on a weighted lure, cast out to the deep water, and drag it slowly across the bottom. If it comes back clean, go ahead and start fertilizing.
I have seen some lakes that did not have vegetation on the edges but would have rooted plants growing in 6-8 feet of water and were difficult to see from the shoreline. Once these lakes were fertilzeed, the vegetation seemed to explode and would soon top out at the surface. Weed treatment then becomes very expensive and may have to be handled by a professional.
If vegetation is observed, the first thing you should do is get a sample and have it identified. Place your sample in a zip lock bag and send it to a fisheries consultant. Once plat is identified, a chemical treatment can be recommended. Almost all herbicides are ineffective until the pond water reaches 55-60 degrees F.
I have often heard the statement from perplexed pond owners' "I thought that if I fertilized, I wouldn't have a moss problem." Well, this is partially true. The main purpose of a fertilization program is to increase the food supply available for your fish. This is done by first creating a phytoplankton bloom, which imparts a green color to the water. This green color also creates a shading effect which blocks sunlight and prevents unwanted vegetation from developing if none were present when the fertilizing began.
Grass carp are a very useful tool but keep in mind that they are cold blooded and their body temperature will be the same as the pond water. Therefore they will eat much more when the water temperature warms up. If you wait for them to clean up the weeds, you may have to delay fertilization for several months, which will also slow the growth of you sport fish.
• Visit the pond and see if any vegetation is present.
• If vegetation is found have it identified and treatment recommended.
• Check water temperature and treat once the water warms to 55-60 degrees F.
• Add grass carp to prevent the problem from re-occurring.
• Begin fertilizing when the weeds are dead or disappeared.
• Remember, A stitch in time saves nine!


Amy Lorimer interviews Cameron, solicitor and founding partner of Cameron Stephen & Co solicitors and estate agents based at 14 Constitution Street in Leith, Edinburgh, on the reasons why he offers sellers in Edinburgh a fixed fee estate agency service.
Is Rocksalt a cafe you come to often?
It is convenient as our offices are just down the street, but yes, it is one of my favourite cafes in Leith.
What does the week hold for you, Cameron?
Well, this week is going to be a busy week. It is the last week of the month and so this Friday we have about ten property completions to arrange and Jayne, our estate agent, has something like four new properties that will be listed. That and all the new business that will come in and arranging closing dates. A very busy week.
But still time to take a break for a coffee?
Certainly. I have to work hard and long hours, but fitting in down time is vital.
So, Cameron, tell me about your fixed fee estate agency service. I think this is something you have always done. Is that right?
Yes. Pretty much from day one, when we started business back in 2009. That was part of our philosophy and one of our core values.
Is it unusual to offer estate agency for a fixed fee?
It was at the time, but it is becoming a little more common now. Most estate agents in Edinburgh will still charge their sellers an estate agency fee on a commission basis. Typically that commission is about 0.75% of the sale price. That's how it has always been done.
Sorry, how does that work? For someone like me who has not sold a property before.
Well, on the commission basis, if you sold your home for £150,000 the bill would be £1,125. If you sold your home for £200,000 the bill would be £1,500. If you sold your home for £300,000 then the bill would be £2,250.
And instead of charging your clients on that commission basis, you charge them a fixed fee?
That's right, we charge a fixed fee of £850.
I see. So, from an estate agent's point of view, the higher the value of the property they sell, the more money they make? Why not do the same? Surely you would make more money that way?
Yes, I can see that it might sound like madness to want to charge less, but let me try to explain it, because this is really the heart of our philosophy at Cameron Stephen.
You and I are both drinking a cup of coffee. The cost of the ingredients are the same. The work involved in preparing and serving these cups of coffee to us are the same. Agreed? So, you would expect the price for the coffee to be the same? You wouldn't expect the price charged for your cup of coffee to be different to the price charged for my cup of coffee?
Well, that how I see selling properties. That's it in a nutshell. I believe that like these cups of coffee, the cost of providing the service for marketing a property are the same regardless of the value of the property being marketed. And so the estate agency fee should be the same for everyone. That in my view is the fair thing to do and the right way to do business.
And at the same time save your client's money.
Yes, we can potentially save our clients many hundreds of pounds for providing exactly the same service. Now this is important. For exactly the same service. I would even go further than that. I believe our estate agency service is up there with the best that is offered in Edinburgh.
You sound a little evangelical about it.
I am. I remember a few years ago, someone was recommended to us. Although we did the legal work for the sale of her home and the purchase of her new home, she decided to use another firm of solicitors and estate agents in Edinburgh for her marketing. Their bill for the estate agency was a eye-watering £8,000.
£8,000. And not only that but there were only three people who viewed. They also charged that person for the costs for property brochures and the for sale board. Even though this is perhaps an extreme example, I just found it completely unjustifiable to charge someone so much for doing so little. To use stronger language, I thought it was a complete rip off.
Sounds like you're on a mission?
I am. We could have provided the same level of service and the same level of marketing for about one tenth of what she was charged.
In my view, there are too many estate agents out there in Edinburgh that charge their sellers a commission of 0.75% and do pretty much what they did ten years ago. They have stood still. If you don't believe me, I suggest you go to some of their websites or take a look at their property brochures. I just cannot understand how sellers are prepared to accept so little and yet be charged so much.
No. That would not be fair of me to do that. The point I am making is that at Cameron Stephen we are passionate about buying and selling properties and all things property. And since Jayne, our estate agent, joined us last year, we have improved no end. We are always looking for ways to improve the service.
And business is doing well?
Yes. Very well. We have had a terrific start to 2017. At a time when the ESPC is reporting a reduction in the number of property listings we are having a record number of listings.
Sounds like you are making few converts?
As always, to deliver the best possible service for the best value to our clients. And to never stop thinking of ways to improve.
And to make more converts.

You might also want to bring a bottle for water, especially to our more challenging classes.
These general guidelines will help you feel more comfortable when entering an unfamiliar setting. They are based on common sense and courtesy, but deal with issues that are specific to yoga classes and studios.
We accept cash, check & every major credit card.
***Please note our P.L.A.Y. Program has a different fee schedule. Please see class descriptions and follow P.L.A.Y.'s Facebook page for more information.
Please remove your shoes; this reminds us that the studio space is sacred and also helps to keep the studio floors clean.
Turn off your cell phone. Electronic devices are disruptive to class; please silence them and please do not place on vibrate.
Arrive on time. If you are running late, please enter the studio quietly and take a seat on the floor. We will adjust mats and set you up after our period of silence is over.
Respect the Teacher and fellow students. Our studio is a place of acceptance and encouragement. Please keep your comments positive and uplifting.
Keep variations appropriate. You are not required to do every pose; if a pose does not feel right in your body please rest in Child's Pose or take a comfortable seated position. Go at your own pace and respect your body.
Don't skip Savasana! Your final relaxation period is an important part of your practice.
If you use studio mats, please spray with cleaner and wipe off following use.
Remember that Yoga is a journey. Where you are today is where you are supposed to be; comparing yourself to other students is unproductive.

Q: regularity of ultrafilters An ultrafilter $U$ is $(\mu,\kappa)$-regular if there is a sequence $\langle X_\alpha : \alpha < \kappa \rangle \subseteq U$ such that for all $y \in [\kappa]^\mu$, $\bigcap_{\alpha \in y} X_\alpha = \emptyset$.  Countable incompleteness is equivalent to $(\omega,\omega)$-regularity, and for every $\kappa$, there is always an $(\omega,\kappa)$-regular ultrafilter.  The failure of $(\omega,\omega_1)$-regularity for an ultrafilter on $\omega_1$ is consistent relative to large cardinals, and carries some large cardinal strength.
In the 1970s, Kanamori proved that if $\lambda$ is singular, then every ultrafilter on $\lambda^+$ is $(\lambda,\lambda^+)$-regular.  Question: Is it known whether Kanamori's result can be improved to, "If $\lambda$ is singular, then every ultrafilter on $\lambda^+$ is $(\kappa,\lambda^+)$-regular for some $\kappa < \lambda$"?  What about in the case $\lambda=\aleph_\omega$?

A: Assuming large cardinals, the answer is no even for $\aleph_\omega$.
Given a supercompact cardinal, Ben-David and Magidor constructed a model in which $\aleph_{\omega+1}$ carries a uniform indecomposable ultrafilter $U$, which means that $U$ is $\theta$-indecomposable for $\aleph_0<\theta<\aleph_\omega$.
For regular $\theta$, $\theta$-indecomposability means that the ultrafilter is closed  closed under intersections of decreasing sequences of length $\theta$, and for ultrafilters this is equivalent to the failure of $(\theta,\theta)$-regularity.
[due to Kanamori or Ketonen --- I'll need to check.]
Said another way, this means that any point-$<\theta$ family of sets from the ultrafilter has size $<\theta$, and hence certainly $(\theta,\aleph_{\omega+1})$-regularity fails.
The ultrafilter in the Ben-David/Magidor paper is $\aleph_n$-indecomposable whenever $0<n<\omega$, hence it cannot be $(\kappa,\aleph_{\omega+1})$ regular for any $\kappa<\aleph_\omega$.
[Note: In the other direction, the answer is surely yes if $V=L$ and the proof ought to go by showing that a counterexample implies some variety of stationary reflection, but I haven't had time to investigate.]

Obama learns LBJ's tough lesson: You can have guns or butter, not both
By Robert Dallek
Originally published on Reuters on October 22, 2014
President Barack Obama has lost his hold on a majority of Americans, according to recent polls. Though more than two years remain in his term, the popular appeal that propelled him to win the 2008 and 2012 elections may be beyond recovery.
It is sadly reminiscent of what President Lyndon B. Johnson experienced in the mid-1960s after winning the 1964 presidential election by one of the largest landslides in U.S. history. This is not to suggest that history is repeating itself. There are too many differences between Johnson and Obama — both the men and their presidencies — to argue that. Yet, as Mark Twain said, history may not repeat itself, but it does rhyme.
In broad terms, though, LBJ and Obama share a record of pushing through bold domestic reforms, then losing momentum as foreign affairs blocked their progressive programs. With Johnson, it was largely foreign problems that stopped his forward motion. With Obama, it has been foreign and domestic developments.
Johnson's Great Society and War on Poverty programs generated strong conservative opposition to so broad an expansion of federal power. Johnson most likely wouldn't even have been able to enact his stunning domestic reforms if not for President John F. Kennedy's assassination in November 1963. This tragedy gave Johnson a martyr to invoke in his effort to pass the 1964 Civil Rights Bill, which forbids racial segregation in public accommodations and helped establish an anti-poverty agency that Johnson said JFK intended to create.
The two-thirds Democratic majorities that Johnson had in both the House of Representatives and the Senate after the 1964 elections allowed him to push through the Voting Rights Act, as well as Medicare and federal aid to education. Numerous other progressive reforms became law in 1965 and 1966, including two new Cabinet departments –transportation and housing and urban development. Read more.

Designed as a walk through time, the exhibitions inside the visitor center for the Nemours Mansion & Gardens in Wilmington, Delaware, follows the interwoven narratives of the du Pont family and the parallel events of world history of the time. The exhibition serves as both an overture and a finale to a grand tour of the home and grounds.The visitor center is a key component of a major restoration. The Mansion was originally designed by Carrere and Hastings, the architects of the New York Public Library and Frick Mansion. It is fully "one acre under one roof" and includes the largest formal French garden in America. The original owner was Alfred I. du Pont, who believed that "it is the duty of everyone in the world to do what is in his power to alleviate human suffering." His Nemours Foundation continues to improve the lives of children today.

Polarized radiation emitted by electron impact excited atoms carries information about the anisotropic population of the magnetic sublevels. An overview of the theory necessary to describe the time evolution of an electron impact excited atom, and therefore the emitted radiation, is presented and applied to three cases. The three cases include the 1s4d-1s2p-1s$\sp2$ cascade transition in helium, the s4d-3s3p-3s$\sp2$ cascade transition in magnesium, and the electron impact excitation off of a laser excited P-state to a D-state and subsequent re-emission back to the P-state. The apparatus required to measure the helium, and magnesium cascade transitions has been built. The apparatus consists of an electron gun aimed at an atom vapour beam. The emitted radiation was detected by two photon detectors, one for each level transition. The equipment is tested by comparing the measured polarization of the 1s4d-1s2p transition in helium to existing published data. The polarization of the 3s4d-3s3p transition in magnesium has also been measured. The coincidence measurements required to complete the determination of the magnetic sublevel populations of the D-state for helium, and magnesium have not yet been made.

Specializing In The Foodservice Industry
Wholesale / Food Service
Home / History
When it all began, in 1946, Mr. Earnest Maillet started his own successful business; Fresh Seafood, Lobster, straight off the boats was peddled door to door to local communities.
In 1952, Mr. Ernest Maillet opened a canteen on Main Street in Shediac New Brunswick to sell cooked lobster to the public during the tourist season. The canteen was a seasonal operation which coincided with our local lobster fishing season. The business's only source of revenue was counter sales until 1958, when Shediac Lobster Shop obtained its first fish processing license.
The business would be operated under sole proprietorship for the following 10 years, where Mr. Maillet sold lobster at the retail counter to the public and packaged hand shucked lobster meat in tin cans; which would be sold in larger quantities to foreign customers and to the Montreal area. At this time Shediac Lobster employed 45 employees.
In 1967, Mr. Hector Maillet, son of Ernest, joined his father in the business. In 1968, Shediac Lobster Shop was incorporated and obtained its charter as a limited company. In 1977, Hector Maillet, acquired a part of the business from his father and became a director of the company. In 1978, Mr. Hector Maillet became general manager. The second generation started exports to Boston, New York, Florida. USA. At this time Shediac Lobster Shop Ltd. employed 140 employees in the processing cannery facility.
The company today, in its third generation, has a work force of over 250 employees and is still owned in total by the Maillet family. Mr. Gilles Maillet, eldest son of Hector, is now COO, General Manager, and his brother Mr. Serge Maillet, who is now Plant Production Manager and overseas production. Together the sons work to continue building the reputable and innovative lobster processing company and strive to succeed in satisfying growing customer's needs and demand. The once was small cannery, is now a thriving modern production facility with a full range of Lobster Products, and en-compasses many facets to the business such as a Live Holding facility & Trucking Division. Exports are focused on North America, Asia, and merging into a new market in Europe.
Shediac Lobster Shop Ltd. looks forward to many successful years to come.

Foreign Relations of the United States, 1969–1976, Volume XVII, China, 1969–1972
69. Memorandum From the President's Assistant for National Security Affairs (Kissinger) to President Nixon 1
Washington, February 20, 1970.
Chinese at Warsaw Talks Suggest US Send High-Level Representative to Peking
At today's session of the Warsaw talks2 the Chinese said that if we wished to send a representative of "ministerial rank or a special Presidential envoy to Peking for the further exploration of fundamental principles of relations" between the US and China, they would be prepared to receive him. They made it plain that the "fundamental principle" with which they were concerned was the Taiwan question, and that once this question was settled other issues could be resolved. They also made it plain that the resolution of the Taiwan issue could not be in the context of a "two Chinas" or "one China, one Taiwan" procedure.
The Chinese have now picked up that element in our negotiating position which would be the most dramatic development in terms of the effects on the outside world. The Soviets could be expected to be taken aback by the appearance of a US envoy in Peking; the GRC undoubtedly would react adversely; and opinion in other countries which have fears and suspicions of Communist China might question our motives and the direction of our policy. The Chinese probably had all of these effects in mind in responding to our proposal. At the same time, however, the Chinese will also face problems in terms of the effects on their own public opinion if a US "imperialist" shows up in Peking after years of propaganda against us; moreover, they must be prepared to consider making some adjustment in their own stand against the US and the US role in Taiwan to avoid a dramatic collapse of this high- level contact. Such a collapse might encourage the Soviets to believe that Chinese explorations of the US option had failed and that the Chinese now had to face the Soviets on their own.
I consider that the advantages lie on the side of a positive response to the Chinese. While we should exercise great care in selecting our representative and laying out the line he should take with the Chinese, his presence in Peking could be very helpful in moving our relationship with the Chinese in the direction which you set in your foreign policy review. This step is fully in consonance with the policy toward Communist China laid down in the foreign policy review, and can be explained as such to all comers, including the GRC. From our standpoint, we may wish to prolong the presence of our representative in Peking and thereby gain, if nothing else, some degree of representation there.
We need not move immediately in naming a representative, since Ambassador Stoessel raised a number of questions concerning the Chinese thoughts as to the arrangements and, in any case, the ball is in our court in proposing the time of the next meeting. However, we should not delay over long so as to avoid creating a negative impression, and I will very shortly have recommendations for you concerning nominees for the job of representative, the level of the position, and the guidance he will be given. I will consult with State on this. There may need to be one or two meetings before arrangements can be fully worked out.
As an interesting side-light on the Warsaw meeting, the Chinese referred to remarks they had made in 1955 on wishing friendly relations with the American people and not desiring war with us. You will recall that our negative reaction to their call for higher-level meetings in 1955 was one of the factors which led to the sterile nature of the talks. We now appear to be back in the 1955 atmosphere, and indeed the Chinese at this meeting avoided polemics and references to any [Page 185]other issue such as our military position on Taiwan which could have impaired the atmospherics of the session.
I have discussed the broad outlines of the foregoing with Dr. Kissinger and he agrees that we will probably have to respond positively to the Chinese initiative. He will be prepared to cover this with you in greater detail on Sunday.3

The stunning new door has provided a more elegant entry way and better functionality.
The homeowners were also interested in upgrading their sliding patio door to something a bit more elegant and energy efficient. We installed a sliding patio door with a prairie grille pattern to give a French door look. The homeowners are thrilled with their new entry door and sliding patio door.

Copyright law pre...
Copyright law prevents access to millions of 'orphan works'
Access to over 50 million items held in trust by publicly funded agencies such as libraries, museums, archives and universities cannot be made available online because their rights holders are not known or easy to trace.
'In from the Cold', a report by the UK's Strategic Content Alliance and the Collections Trust, shows that millions of so-called "orphan works" - photographs, recordings, texts and other ephemera from the last 100 years - risk becoming invisible because of copyright restrictions.
The report argues that the UK is in real danger of losing 20th century materials due to the current copyright laws, the levels of resources needed to trace the rights for each orphan work and the potential lock down of access to these important works. Of the 13 million works represented in the on-line survey, it would take roughly six million days to trace the rights holders, or around 16,000 years.
Naomi Korn, Strategic Content Alliance's Intellectual Property consultant and author of the report said, 'Many orphan works, like documentary photographs and sound recordings are of low commercial value but of high cultural and historic importance. The desire for a Digital Britain is not restricted to broadband connectivity alone. It requires us to minimise the overheads in terms of time, money and effort to unlock low commercial value but high education and cultural "orphan work" content for the benefit of the British people from the archives of all kinds that they fund.'
Over 500 organisations took part in the online survey to establish the impact of orphan works across the museums, archives, libraries and universities.

Shri Pranab Mukherjee, President of India said that all leaders including Mahatma Gandhi have emphasised on literacy. Literacy was included even in Millennium Development Goals. He said this while speaking at the function held for celebrating International Literacy Day 2015 at New Delhi today. The function was organised by National Literacy Mission Authority, Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India. The President further said that we have significantly raised our literacy rates from 18% in 1951 to 72.98% in 2011 but are yet to achieve 100% literacy. We must strive to achieve the goal of literacy laid down in XII Five Year Plan and gender gap in literacy should not remain more than 10 percentage points. Saakshar Bharat in combination with Swachh Bharat has the potential to transform India. Literacy gives empowerment and without it empowerment is not possible. Literacy has assumed greater significance in light of paradigm shift which has taken place in last one decade by giving rights to people backed by enactments in areas of employment, education and information etc. Therefore, we must consider empowerment and sustainability through literacy. President congratulated Minister of Human Resource Development for fixing target of 100% literacy under Saansad Aadarsh Gram Yojna. In his closing remarks, he said that we must make Bharat – Saakshar Bharat, Swachh Bharat – a Bharat of our dreams!
Smt. Smriti Irani, Union Minister of Human Resource Development, in her address, congratulated the literacy functionaries and volunteers and said that it is a matter of prestige that in the last 15 months a record number of 2.28 crore learners have been made literate. Scope of literacy has been expanded to include economic empowerment of beneficiaries and around one crore bank accounts have been opened under Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojna. Efforts of literacy functionaries deserve appreciation and require to be stated in figures and it must be mentioned that very recently and in a short span of one month, they have mobilised and facilitated around 92.7 lakh beneficiaries to avail benefits of Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojna. She said national policy on education is being revised and for the revised policy, she requested one and all to suggest ways and means to achieve the goal of universal literacy. The Ministry has taken the pledge to achieve 100% literacy by March 2016, in adopted Saansad Aadarsh Grams located in 410 districts and made an appeal to state and district representatives to take similar kind of pledge for their respective operational areas. She made an appeal to literacy functionaries and officials to spread the message to honour women in family and only then one would be considered as literate and educated.
Shri Upendra Kushwaha, Minister of State for Human Resource Development (School Education & Literacy) in his welcome address said that illiteracy in India or elsewhere is a blot on the face of humanity. Illiteracy must be eradicated and it is the responsibility of educated ones to do it. It is unfortunate that one out of every five men and one third of women in India are still illiterate. Our country has progressed and we are moving towards the goal of literacy but much remains to be done. Therefore, whoever you are, wherever you are you must contribute towards efforts for eradication of illiteracy.
Shri Shigeru Aoyagi, Director, UNESCO, at New Delhi read out the message of Ms. Irina Bokova, Director General, UNESCO. Ms. Bokova said, UNESCO's message on this International Literacy Day is to allow women and men to participate fully in their societies, we need greater investments and more effective policies to embed action for literacy within wider development policies, supported by innovative mechanisms that generate positive synergies across all policy areas that are vital to build more just and cohesive societies. This is essential to all efforts to build a better future for all, on the basis of human rights and dignity.
A short film, titled, 'Saaksharta Se Samajik Suraksha Ki Ore', was screened during the function. It highlighted the efforts done under Saakshar Bharat programme to mobilise and facilitate the target groups to avail benefits of financial inclusion and social security schemes of Government of India especially Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojna and Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojna.
Shri S. C. Khuntia, Secretary (School Education & Literacy), Shri Y.S.K. Sheshu Kumar, Joint Secretary (Adult Education) & Director General, National Literacy Mission Authority and Mr. Shigeru Aoyagi, Director, UNESCO, New Delhi Office & Representative to Bhutan, India, Maldives and Sri Lanka were also present on the occasion.

Are you a backend engineer with a passion for APIs, live databases and mobile apps?
Did you know that 4 billion people around the world do not have an adequate address?

Orchids of Asia Day Spa in Jupiter, one of several businesses targeted in a human trafficking and sex investigation that apparently began in Martin County, had online reviews identifying it in slang terms as a provider of sexual services.
Postings from February 2015 to March 2018 on a forum-based website detailed visits involving Asian women supplying sex acts, massages and body rubs for pay. Investigators found evidence of bodily fluids and got video of sex acts inside the Palm Beach County business.
These were among the details in a 16-page affidavit obtained Wednesday supporting the arrests of Hua Zhang, 58, and 39-year-old Lei Wang, in connection with the spa at 103 S. U.S. 1 in Jupiter.

The affidavit brings into focus what investigators said was going on in at least one of the spas targeted, four of which are in Martin County.
Martin County Sheriff William Snyder on Tuesday discussed a far-reaching investigation involving human trafficking and sex that he said stretches to Orange County, New York and China.
Snyder disclosed the Tuesday arrests of Ruimei Li, of Jupiter, and Lixia Zhu, of Stuart, both 48. They were identified as madams or managers.

Records show Zhang, of Winter Garden, and Wang, with an address in Hobe Sound, also were arrested Tuesday.
Meanwhile, officials in Indian River County Tuesday afternoon announced a six-month investigation into "multiple massage parlor locations" there, as well. Sebastian police raided AA Massage, in the 1500 block of U.S. 1. Additional details are expected to be discussed in Vero Beach Thursday.
What we know: Human trafficking in Florida massage parlors
What they found
Records supporting criminal charges at Orchids in Jupiter show an investigation began in October after Martin County sheriff's detectives reported "they were working several cases of prostitution and possible human trafficking at Asian massage parlors in their county," records state.
Jupiter police researched corporate records and found Orchids became active in February 2012, with Zhang as the registered agent.
More: 'It just didn't seem like it was an up-and-up situation,' says spa neighbor
Jupiter police researched Orchids online and found reviews indicating paid sex activities were available.
Surveillance in November showed as many as about 20 men a day visited Orchids, staying for 30 to 60 minutes.

During a Nov. 14 state Department of Health inspection, three women, including Wang, were inside. It appeared women were living at the business. Wang identified herself as the manager.
Investigators inspected trash from the business and found evidence of bodily fluids on napkins.
They stopped men leaving Orchids, who said sexual services were rendered upon them.
Covert surveillance inside detailed sex acts on dozens of men.
More: Treasure Coast spas connected to human trafficking arrests opened within past three years
Investigators got a search warrant to install a tracking device on Zhang's vehicle.
It was tracked from her condo in Jupiter to the business to Wang's home in Hobe Sound. It also went to Sequoia Apple Day Spa, another targeted business, in Hobe Sound.
Jupiter investigators developed criminal charges for more than 20 men they said gave money to Zhang, Wang or others in exchange for Zhang, Wang or others to perform sex acts.
'Like a movie come to life'

One of the businesses targeted in Martin County — Therapy Spa — is between Center for Specialized Dentistry and Sherban Spine Institute in a plaza on the west side of U.S. 1 at Southeast Luckhardt Street in Stuart.
Lettering out front notes services for golf massage, foot massage, body massage and couples massage.
Stephanie Lewandowski, medical assistant at the spine business, said when she got to work on Tuesday, many law enforcement officials were there.
"You hear that this stuff happens, but right next door to where you work?" Lewandowski said.
She said she thought the business kept unusual hours.
"It's like a movie come to life," Lewandowski said. "You see it like in a movie or you hear about it, but you never think it's really going to happen next to where you work."

Miles to the south, in the Port Cove Plaza just south of Cove Road, is Cove Day Spa, another targeted business. Other establishments in the plaza include Tropical Smoothie Cafe and Rosalie's Salon.
Erik Kromann, owner/manager of Rosalie's, said he had suspicions about activities at the spa from the beginning. He said just one person worked on the interior.
"We never saw the contractor; they had a single guy just working and building out the place," he said. "I was positive they were sleeping in there."
He said he thought the spa opened around Thanksgiving, and the clientele was almost all men.
"Anything from a lot of pickup trucks to … some high-end cars that were coming in here, too," Kromann said. "There were like $90,000 cars that were pulling up."
Kromann said traffic picked up as the night went on and the windows of the spa were dark.
"It just didn't seem like it was an up-and-up situation," Kromann said.

In a Washington Post Op-Ed, I look into the history of the law that forbids Americans engaging with foreign governments to undermine official policies of the United States. The Logan Act, passed in 1799, is one of the key laws that may have been violated by retired lieutenant general Michael Flynn in his dealing with the Russian Ambassador, by Jared Kushner in his dealings with members of the UN Security Council, and by the president-elect at the time if he instructed these men to act to defeat measures of the United States government.
I walk through several examples in which the State Department has taken actions such as suspending Americans' passports out of concern for Logan Act violations and, in much earlier times, expelling foreign diplomats for aiding and abetting Logan Act violations.
Significant examples also occurred during presidential elections—where political leaders, such as major party candidates and their surrogates, can be imbued with unusual power to represent themselves to foreign governments in ways the Logan Act was designed to curtail.
In the Op-Ed, I also explain some of the ways in which Congress has not remained silent.
That said, the Justice Department largely has remained silent. Why? Prosecutors have been deterred, among other things, by having to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that an individual possessed the specific intent to commit the elements of the offence. Different Justice Departments in the past have also been worried that a criminal trial might run into First Amendment problems. However, as professor Tim Zick wrote, the Supreme Court fairly recently made clear in a different but relevant context (Holder v. Humanitarian Law Project) that the First Amendment does not necessarily pose such an obstacle to criminal prosecutions. (For a contrary view, see my Q&A with Steve Vladeck). In terms of criminal prosecutions, it may be useful to consider the successful court martial of a U.S. airman for attempting to provide information to the Soviet Union that would have been detrimental to the United States. In United States v. Mueller, the Board of Review held that even though the charges failed to specify a federal criminal statute, they were "designed and modeled to conform in substance to the offense denounced by [the Logan Act]," which was sufficient to uphold the court martial.
Where does that leave Flynn, Kushner, and the president if he instructed them to act to defeat measures of the United States government? I leave that for others to decide. The main point of the Op-Ed is to show the blind spots created by the focus in public discourse on whether the Justice Department previously enforced the Logan Act through criminal prosecutions.

What is Arnold Schwarzenegger teaching us about Climate Communication?
18 June 2019 by R20CLIENTKpQ7szy4SU7Q53d 0
In essence: That we are doing it wrong! The focus of « green campaigners » on future and distant threats, such as global warming, the rising sea levels or the end of polar bears is a strategic mistake. Of course, these are important issues, but people do not relate well to what will happen 20 years from now. Instead, he says, we should communicate on the "here" and "now", with a particular focus on health.
If you ever attended a climate conference or read an article about climate change – they are easy to come by these days – you were probably confronted to global temperature targets, atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases and other facts and figures that dominate today's climate discourse. Unfortunately, for most of us non-climate scientists, targets and metrics are hard to grasp. In fact, studies have shown that the less tangible or the further the message on climate risks is from our everyday experiences, the more likely we are to perceive them as distant and improbable phenomenon[1]. Researchers refer to this as "psychological distancing" and argue that it can ultimately reduce support for climate action and adaptive behavior. The same goes for catastrophic and apocalyptic scenarios, another type of discourse climate communicators and media like to throw around every chance they get. In an insightful TED talk, Norwegian psychologist and economist Per Espen Stoknes explains that these attempts to motivate people to action often backfire because they lead to more hopelessness and less concern.
When asked what can we do to increase climate-positive attitudes and behaviors, Arnold Schwarzenegger's answer is immediate: Frame climate change as a public health issue. "Failing to talk about health is why climate communication has been so unsuccessful over the past years, and we learned it the hard way in California" he says.
No on Prop 23: American Lung Assn (TV Ad)
In 2010, while he was Governor of California, out of state oil companies launched an initiative (Proposition 23) seeking to roll back on a landmark environmental law known as AB32. For a long time, the poll numbers where in favor of Proposition 23. "Traditional" environmental adverts had no impact against the simple message – protecting jobs and the economy – hammered by oil companies. It is only when Schwarzenegger and his campaign team ran adverts emphasizing the health impacts of air pollution that, all of a sudden, the poll numbers changed. "Health is what made the people of California overwhelmingly vote for a clean energy future. Not the rising temperatures, not the melting ice caps, not the polar bears" he told a captivated audience during the High-Level Presidency event on Health at COP23, back in 2017.
Aside from his Californian example, the health argument advanced by Arnold Schwarzenegger is supported by communication researchers and practitioners. Indeed, they have demonstrated that when climate change is introduced as a human health issue it makes it more relevant and emotionally engaging[2]. More encouraging, researchers have also found that a diversity of audience segments, even people traditionally disengaged or dismissive of climate change, respond positively to an emphasis on the public health consequences of climate change[3]. To top it all, in a COP24 Special Report, the World Health Organization recently provided more evidence, examples and stories on the health benefits of climate change mitigation. So, there is no shortage of arguments we can use.
In the end, what Arnold Schwarzenegger is teaching us about climate communication is pretty straightforward. Avoid using "doom and gloom" environmentalism, leave the climate go-to metrics – even though they make you look smart – and the polar bears on the side, and reframe climate change as a public health issue. If you really want to throw in numbers, focus on the positive things, such as the number of solar panels, recycling programs or green jobs created.

Champions Neptunes win President's Cup for sixth time
Adapted from The Times report by Alex Vella
Sliema 11 – Neptunes -12
Invariably supporters of both Neptunes Emirates and Sliema are bound to suffer the pangs of an odd miss in their heartbeat whenever these teams face each other.
Again it was no exception yesterday as the duel developed into another palpitating contest of the highest level. This was the sixth success for the Balluta Bay team in the President's Cup.
Neptunes seemed to be on their way to victory as they often led by three goals and sometimes four but the Blues showed no signs of giving up especially in the latter stages of the game. The Reds were, perhaps, a perkier outfit both on set-play and man-ups as well as their covering.
Neptunes netted seven on eight on numerical sets with Sliema, who had Mark Meli and John Brownrigg back in their ranks, scoring 40 per cent of their five sets.
All in all, however, it was another contest which was a credit to the game despite the odd mistakes from the players and a couple of contested decisions by the referees.
The Reds started almost like a train, taking a 2-0 lead inside the first three minutes before Sliema pulled a goal back momentarily. Neptunes converted two man-up sets on either side of a Sliema goal.
With Neptunes shooting effectively, particularly through Niki Lanzon off cross passes, and converting most of their numerical advantages, they deservedly took a 7-4 lead which they preserved until ends were changed.
Meanwhile, the Blues were being frustrated by their opponents' stifling press within the five-metre zone, while Neptunes were conducting play thanks to the good marshalling of outside players Vladimir Gojkovic, scorer of two goals, and four-goal Lanzon.
Quick goals from the Blues after the changeover provided them with a fillip before Neptunes hit back strongly to open a four-goal advantage.
However, before the session closed, further goals reduced that advantage to 11-8 for the Balluta Bay team.
Excitement brewed in the final session as Sergio Afric's team redoubled their efforts to salvage the game and their pride.
More goals from the inimitable Bogdan Rath, who also netted a poker, nearly accomplished their mission.
But Neptunes, for whom Jordan Camilleri was fouled out early in that last quarter, held on tightly for their first summer success of the year.
The President's Cup was presented to Neptunes captain Lanzon who was cheered by his team's band of supporters.

Picking between cooking oils and healthy spreads at the grocery store can be quite confusing. This blog makes a comparative study of which is the best pick: Butter or coconut oil head to head in terms of fats.
Based on early research studies, both butter, as well as coconut oil, was tagged 'nutritional bad boys' at one point of time mainly for their high saturated fat content. But further studies have proved that they actually may not be, reports EatingWell website.
Both coconut oil and butter, at the nutrition level, are loaded with saturated fats meaning 87% of coconut oil fats or 12gm per tablespoon and 51% of butter fats or 7gm per tablespoon is saturated fats. The American Heart Association and the U.S. Dietary Guidelines still recommend maintaining saturated fat to 7 to 10% of total day-to-day calories or less.
This suggests that if your average daily calorie intake is 2,000 calories, it is recommended to consume only 16-22gms of saturated fats daily.
In spite of the latest research studies that not all low-saturated fat diet seems to lower the risk of heart diseases, not every saturated fat is formed equally.
The saturated fatty acids in butter and coconut oil are basically medium-chain fatty acid or MCTs, which break down in the body in a different form from other fat types and probably less likely to be stored in the form of fatty tissues, thereby aiding weight loss.
The main saturated fatty acid of coconut is the MCT lauric acid. Going by the latest research, while it promotes unhealthy LDL cholesterol, it also raises beneficial HDL cholesterol; therefore, the effect of coconut oil on heart diseases or cardiac risk may be neutral.
Butter also comprises an appreciable amount of Vitamins D and A, in addition to Vitamin K2, which helps maintain build up of less fatty plaques in heart arteries. And when the butter you consume is sourced from grass-fed cows, you get a natural fat supplement containing conjugated linoleic acid that may exhibit metabolism-revving effects and host of other health benefits.
Surprisingly, both coconut oil, as well as butter, is said to contain palmitic and myristic acid, both less-healthy saturated fatty acids which are linked to the development of fatty plaques in heart arteries. The main fatty acid of butter is palmitic acid.
Conclusion: Both butter and coconut oil are not nutritional miracles, nor are they dietary villains, and that that the saturated fat they are packed with isn't the full story.
Wait for some more research, and until then you'll better off going for either coconut oil or butter in moderate quantities, and gain the bulk of the fats you cook and eat from heart-healthy unsaturated oils including fatty fish, canola oil and olive oil.

Children with chronic or recurrent upper respiratory inflammatory disease (rhinitis) should be considered for inhalant allergies. Risk factors for inhalant allergies in children include a first-degree relative with allergies, food allergy in infancy, and atopic dermatitis. Although inhalant allergies are rare in infancy, inhalant allergies are common in older children and impair quality of life and productivity. Differentiating between viral and allergic rhinitis can be challenging in children, but the child's age, history, and risk factors can provide helpful information. Allergic rhinitis is a risk factor for asthma, and if one is present, medical consideration of the other is warranted.
