Hunter being hailed a hero after saving nine koalas from the Australia fires
This young hunter is being hailed a hero after he saved nine injured koalas from the wildfires in Victoria, Australia.
After the fires have died down, Patrick Boyle went on a solo rescue mission in the eucalyptus forests outside Mallacoota to retrieve injured wildlife. He completely understood that entering an unsafe and scorched area in East Gippsland was a reckless move, but the 22-year-old also knew that someone had to do it.
On Friday, he posted a photo of him on Instagram holding one of the koalas he rescued. The marsupial was wrapped in a blanket – the look of distress apparent in its face.
Patrick began rescuing koalas after a friend of his uncovered a frightened one cowering under the pump of a water treatment plan. This heartbreaking discovery spurred him to take matters into his own hands. Though he knew that plenty of locals were supporting each other, only a few had been able to help the animals.
He had "no idea what to expect," but the hunter still proceeded with the dangerous mission.
Patrick said that it didn't take long for him to find the first koala. As he dove deeper into the forest, he came across more and more injured koalas until he ended up rescuing nine.
"I instantly found a burned koala that I took straight back to the wildlife shelter. It was actually remarkable how quickly I found koalas," he recalled.
Unfortunately, however, not all the animals he found were in good shape.
"I've found eight or nine so far that have been rescued. I found over ten that were dead and about another five that are alive and healthy for the time being," Patrick told Stuff.co.nz.
Patrick took the koalas removed from the forest into the nearby Mallacoota Wildlife Shelter – a refuge that was actually just a resident's house. Patrick appealed for donations to the small shelter that was lacking in resources.
"The place is rammed with koalas and other wildlife all through their lounge and back garden. They have very little resources, so any help that people can give is great," he said.
Patrick said that based on his hobbies, people wouldn't really expect him to be on the frontline rescuing animals in the aftermath of the wildfires.
"I'm a hunter – I'm one of the last people that others would expect to help these animals," he said. "Farmers, hunters and workers are the ones out there actually taking action right now."
Patrick also shared an update on the Today Show about the koalas' current condition.
"They're all still alive with is good news… some are better than others, some are just dehydrated and shocked, others are really burnt and struggling to eat leaves," he said.
The wildfires have destroyed 1,300 homes and left nearly 500 million animals deceased in New South Wales.
You may donate to the Mallacoota Wildlife Shelter by visiting their official Facebook page. The Mallacoota fires support GoFundMe can be found HERE.

Parental Control and other innovations in Dr.Web Security Space 12.0 for Android
Russian anti-virus company Doctor Web is pleased to announce the release of version 12 of its Dr.Web Security Space for Android. The software product is now equipped with a new component—Parental Control. Furthermore, its Security Auditor is now able to detect new, dangerous vulnerabilities; other modules also boast new features and upgrades. Known software issues have been resolved.
The new version includes enhanced settings protection. Use the Account item in the application menu to password-protect access to certain Dr.Web Security Space for Android components and settings. A password will also be necessary to access the new component—Parental Control.
Thanks to the addition of Parental Control, Dr.Web Security Space for Android can now be used to restrict other users' access to the Call and SMS filter, installed applications, the URL-filter, and Dr.Web settings. Thus, an account owner can protect any children who may be using their smartphone from unknown and unsolicited calls and messages, prevent the launch of certain applications, and make sure the anti-virus settings aren't tampered with.
The Security Auditor that comes with Dr.Web Security Space for Android detects a variety of vulnerabilities, such as Extra Field, Master Key, and Heartbleed, which can remain unpatched on Android-powered smartphones and tablets. The new component version is also able to discover BlueBorne and SIM Toolkit (CVE-2015-3843). For more information, please refer to this news post. In addition, the Security Auditor reviews information about certificates that have been installed by users.
Other changes in Dr.Web Security Space 12.0 for Android:
The URL filter now incorporates white- and blacklists and enables the user to grant access only to whitelisted sites.
Users can now purchase the product on Google Play before their current license expires.
The application now supports YandexBrowser Lite.
Files and system libraries can now in some cases be cured if root permissions are available on the device.
A Dr.Web Anti-virus Service Agent configuration issue on Android devices has been resolved.
Also fixed was an issue that prevented threat statistics from displaying correctly on the server (for Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite and Dr.Web AV-Desk).
A defect causing the agent to disconnect from the Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite or Dr.Web AV-Desk server prior to an application restart has also been eliminated.
The update will be downloaded and installed automatically. If you disabled automatic updating on your device, go to Google Play, select the Dr.Web Security Space or Dr.Web Security Space Life icon in the application list, and tap "Update".
To perform an update via Doctor Web's site, download the updated distribution. If you enable the settings option "New application version", a new version notification will be displayed whenever the virus databases have been updated. You can start the download directly from this dialogue box.
Dr.Web Security Space for Android is available free of charge to Dr.Web Security Space and Dr.Web Anti-virus license owners. The new version of Dr.Web for Android is also available as part of Dr.Web Mobile Security Suite (for business) and the Dr.Web Anti-virus service (for the Dr.Web Premium and Dr.Web Mobile subscription packages).


Among his most popular works, the Fourth Symphony is a meticulously structured meditation on Fate written at a time of great emotional turmoil. As Tchaikovsky admitted, it is autobiographical; turbulent but finally triumphant. The principal idea of the work is the implacability of Fate, a force that "poisons the soul" by impeding the individual's quest for peace and fulfilment. In a glorious burst of activity, Mozart composed twelve superlative piano concertos from February 1784 to December 1786. They were deeper in feeling, broader in scope and richer in colour than any he had written before.
No.21 is built on a fully symphonic scale, with an orchestral backing that matches the solo part for interest and variety. Mozart balances forcefulness, elegance and wit with perfect ease. The dreamlike andante is based on the simplest of materials; its effect, nevertheless, is magical whilst the concluding rondo echoes with the laughter of comic opera. The much earlier Symphony No.26 is nevertheless scattered with dramatic touches reminiscent of the 'Sturm und Drang' symphonies of Haydn.

HMRC delays introduction of VAT reverse charge
HMRC has announced a one-year delay to the introduction of the VAT domestic reverse charge for building and construction services.
The reverse charge represents part of a government clamp-down on VAT fraud. According to the government, large amounts of VAT are lost through 'missing trader' fraud. The charge was set to come into effect on 1 October 2019. It has now been pushed back 12 months due to fears that businesses in the construction sector are not ready.
As part of missing trader fraud, VAT is charged by a supplier, who then disappears, along with the output tax. The VAT is thus lost to HMRC. The construction industry is considered a particularly high-risk sector because of the potential to make supplies with minimal input tax but considerable output tax.
The reverse charge does not change the VAT liability: it changes the way that VAT is accounted for. In the future, the recipient of the services, rather than the supplier, will account for VAT on specified building and construction services. This is called a reverse charge. The reverse charge is a business-to-business charge, applying to VAT-registered businesses where payments are required to be reported through the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS).
HMRC says it remains 'committed to the introduction of the reverse charge', and has put a robust compliance strategy into place in order to tackle fraud in the construction sector.
HMRC has issued guidance on recognising genuine Revenue contact and phishing emails.

Graham Boynton celebrates the sounds and sights on a true fan's pilgrimage.
You don't have to be a big country music fan to enjoy Nashville, but it helps. And if you believe, as I do, that C&W is white man's soul music, then a visit to Nashville is much more than a holiday - it's a pilgrimage.
So, having promised myself a visit to Music City for the past quarter of a century, I finally found my way there during the equivalent of country music's Oscars, the Country Music Association Awards.
The week turned out to be a jamboree of black tie parties celebrating the legends of the genre, epic pub crawls that took in every honky tonk in town, visits to the various music museums and sacred sites, and then trips into the surrounding countryside to visit the Civil War battlefields and white mansions that feed the folklore of this corner of the United States. In short, it was a country fan's perfect pilgrimage.
Down in the honky-tonks of Lower Broadway, young and not so young hopefuls were playing three-hour sets for no fees, just tips, praying that some of the industry bigwigs who were in town for the awards would stop sucking on their Miller Lites and think that they might be listening to the new Garth Brooks or Alan Jackson.
At Tootsies Orchid Lounge, the Dave Mathis Band played up a storm; at Second Fiddle, a seven-piece called The Nobles did classics such as Tennessee Waltz and Your Cheating Heart; and a few doors down at the Bluegrass Inn, four siblings from Illinois called Silk & Saddle sang the tightest harmonies, blazed away on fiddles and played everything from bluegrass to contemporary country covers.
As I limped back to my hotel in the early hours of the morning it struck me that there were few cities where you can wander from one music venue to another - from midday until almost dawn - and hear such incredible music in such gritty, authentic surroundings. This remains the heart and soul of Music City for me.
The following day I tiptoed rather gingerly through the Country Music Hall of Fame and through RCA's famous Studio B on Music Row. The Hall of Fame, completed in 2001, is an outstanding museum that traces the music from its hillbilly roots in the 1930s through to the multi-billion-dollar industry it is today.
It contains such kitsch treasures as Elvis's gold Cadillac and Webb Pierce's over-the-top Pontiac, which came fitted with pistols.
It was here that I learnt just how big country music is: that last year sales of country albums totalled $1.2 billion, which amounted to 10 per cent of all music sales worldwide, and that Eddie Arnold, who is now 86 and apparently worth a billion dollars, alone has sold more records than Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby.
It was reassuring to find that my somewhat politically incorrect and entirely unfashionable love of redneck music was shared by so many others.
The pleasures of the Hall of Fame were matched by a relatively brief tour of Studio B where Elvis, the Everly Brothers, Roy Orbison and everyone else you can think of in the late 1950s and early '60s recorded the songs that became the soundtrack of our lives.
I was even able to play the opening notes of Floyd Kramer's Last Date on the same piano, on the same square yard of the planet where he made that famous recording.
The CMA Awards Show itself, held at the Grand Ol Opry and televised live to an estimated audience of 40 million Americans, introduced me to the new generation of country stars, whose music I have been playing ever since. In Britain, we have barely heard of Alan Jackson, Martina McBride, Kenny Chesney (now Mr Renee Zelwegger), Brooks and Dunn, and Gretchen Wilson, but they're big stars here and they put on a great show.
The highlight was Brad Paisley and Alison Krauss's double-suicide drinking song called Whiskey Lullaby that encapsulated many of country music's great lyric themes: cheating, drinking, loneliness, unrequited love, God, more drinking and premature death.
On my last day, a Sunday, a friend in the music industry, who has lived here for the past 20 years, took me into the Tennessee countryside. Over a mountainous southern breakfast of grits, fries, country ham and biscuits at the Loveless Cafe, he reiterated a fundamental truth about the South that I had learnt years back from reading Shelby Foote's moving books on the subject, and that is if you wish to understand Nashville, country music and the South you have to know something about the Civil War.
So we drove out past the immaculately maintained farms of the wealthy country stars to Franklin, where the Battle of Franklin, one of the Civil War's bloodiest and most significant confrontations, had taken place in November 1864.
We spent a balmy autumn day strolling through what is now the largest private Confederate cemetery in the US, around the Carnton Mansion House, where the bodies of the four Southern generals (Cleburne, Granbury, Strahl and Adams) had been laid out, and across the picture-postcard Kentucky hillsides that have not changed since that epic conflict.
I picked up a copy of the Carnton Plantation Newsletter, and there, on the front page, was the proud announcement that one of country music's favourite sons, Vince Gill, had just been named honorary chairman of the campaign to preserve this corner of American history.
That brought a smile to my friend's face. "It's what I've been telling you - country music is the truth because it knows its roots."
Graham Boynton travelled to Nashville on Continental Airlines (0845 607 6760, www.continental.com). A return flight from Gatwick to Nashville, via Newark, costs from £624 in economy and £2,473 in BusinessFirst.
Carnton is at 1345 Carnton Lane, Franklin (615 794 0903, www.carnton.org). The Loveless Cafe is at 8400 Highway 100 (615 646 9700, www.lovelesscafe.com).
Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn, are the most successful duo in country music.
The great voices of contemporary country sing the great compositions of two of the genre's most influential songwriters.
Alan Jackson's rich voice has made him one of the big stars of the past few years and a multi CMA Award winner. It's worth buying this album just for the duet with Patty Loveless on Monday Morning Church.
The Cox Family sings low bluegrass/country at its best.
Two Civil War concept albums written by a transplanted Englishman, Paul Kennerley - and performed by Johnny Cash, Levon Helm, Emmylou Harris, Eric Clapton to name a few - that capture the enduring poignancy of The South.

The rioting kids in Baltimore know beyond a shadow of a doubt those who administer and enforce the laws they are expected to respect have absolutely no respect for them.
You bastards have brought this on yourselves, and now you even have the gall to dictate from the comfort of your studios and living rooms how rage and frustration should manifest itself!
The news has shown different repeated imagery, but one I find ironic is with the mother who was slapping her son. Okay, how is it that if she responds that way in a different context that would be a CPS call if a minor and she might be put in jail, etc., yet here, she is being presented as a hero and highlighted as a primary model on how all parents should be responding with their children in this situation. One analyst said that if it were a line of up mothers out in the street instead of the police, nobody would be out there…. The white supremacist framework…I can't think of the last time I heard anything in front stage society condone or even encourage parents acting violently towards their children. But, I suppose in the U.S. there are exceptions, which is when Black youth challenge the system. But, when the system is not being challenged such as this, then the mothers have virtually no voice when the state over powers her son with unjust violence, and/or death… The way the violence against blacks is justified and legitimated, framed, etc. by white dominated society, is inherently designed to break families, no matter which angle it's looked from.
The mother had said she responded that way because she didn't want her son to be the next Freddy Gray. Within her mind, given the context of the situation and police on the streets coupled with the realities of police killing black individuals, etc., why she was trying to get him out was for an entirely different reason than the "why" the white media was praising and using/exploiting her as a model for others to follow to try to regain the status quo, etc….
I absolutely agree. Popular misunderstanding and misrepresentation of that woman's reasons for hitting her son were not just offensive and frustrating- they were indicative of exactly what's wrong in this country in the first place.

Lansing School District developing $130 million bond request to rebuild four schools
LANSING — Lansing School District plans to ask voters to approve a 25-year, $130-million bond request which would fund the replacement of four aging schools without raising tax rates.
The Lansing School District Board of Education is developing a bond issue request that, if approved at an election on May 3, would provide funds for rebuilding Mt. Hope STEAM Magnet School, Willow Elementary, Lewton School and Sheridan Road STEM Magnet School; renovating J.W. Sexton High School; and assuring every classroom in the school district has air conditioning.
The proposed work carries an estimated cost of about $129.9 million. Paying off and refinancing old debt would allow the school district to issue the bonds without increasing the taxes paid by district residents.
"We have spent hours in the community, sending surveys and gathering information to understand the capital needs for the district," said Superintendent Benjamin Shuldiner. "We have come to a proposal … to build new buildings in the place of older buildings that need to be replaced."
School district officials met with the state treasury department earlier this month and will submit the bonding request package to state officials for review, Shuldiner said. He hopes to see approval in February to place the request on the ballot for the May 3 election.
School district leaders wanted to see the bond request support the entire school district and that thinking helped them land on the four schools that would be replaced — Sheridan Road STEM Magnet School is the district's northernmost school, Mt. Hope STEAM Magnet School is one of the oldest and in greatest need of a rebuild and Willow Elementary and Lewton School in recent years have seen problems with boilers, heat and other structural issues, Shuldiner said.
The schools selected for proposed rebuilds include some of the school district's oldest buildings, with Mt. Hope being constructed in the 1940s and Willow in the early 1950s.
"We felt, what a great opportunity to build four brand new schools, state of the art, beautiful for our children … and able to replace our older buildings," Shuldiner said.
About $10.9 million in renovations would come to J.W. Sexton High School, according to bond proposal documents, including a complete renovation of the auditorium, air conditioning installation, athletics facility improvements and refreshing the interior components of the school, like ceilings, window shades and paint.
District officials picked Sexton for improvements through the bonding request after Lansing Eastern High School moved from its old nearly century-old building on North Pennsylvania Avenue, once the oldest school in the district, to the former home of Pattengill Academy on Marshall Street, the district's newest building. The district invested $14 million to transform the structure into a modern high school with updated technology and furniture, new biochemistry labs and a new practice gym, among other improvements.
Everett High School has also seen millions of dollars in renovations in recent years, Shuldiner said.
"Sexton deserves that same love and the same support that these other schools do," he said. "The bond request includes upgrades which also show this commitment as superintendent, as a school board and as a school district that we have no intention of shutting Sexton down. In fact, we want to invest in Sexton to succeed for generations to come."
The Lansing School District Board of Education is expected to consider placing the bonding request on the May ballot during a meeting in February. A community outreach campaign would begin soon after.

Wakey Wheeled Cats team up with the Wakefield Trinity Wildcats!
March 29, 2013 December 18, 2015 wakeyw
We are very excited to announce a new Partnership with Wakefield Trinity Wildcats Rugby League Club!
Read our press release here:
They have very similar names and both play very physical sports. Now Wakey Wheeled Cats and Wakefield Trinity Wildcats have got together to form a new partnership.
In what is believed to be a first for a UK-based roller derby league, the two clubs will work together on a number of initiatives including joint fundraising activities for the Wheeled Cats and the Wakefield Community Trust, and the Cats will carry the Wakefield Trinity Wildcats logo on their playing kits.
Both clubs will have a presence on each other's respective websites and work on helping to promote fixtures and events through social media. The Wheeled Cats will also attend one of the Wildcats fixtures later this year to showcase the sport and their club in the Wildcats fanzone, helping to grow a sport in the local area that is one of the fastest developing in the entire country.
After gaining national exposure in The Sun newspaper earlier this week, the Wheeled Cats are part of a growing sport that has swept the nation over the last few years.
Roller derby involves two teams on a track, each with a jammer, who scores points by passing members of the opposing team. The opponents then do whatever they can to prevent them – while sticking to a strict ruleset that bans the use of elbows, tripping and pushing to the back among other things.
The high octane, full-contact sport is mainly played by women and has enjoyed a renaissance in the last decade. It is now played by teams in more than 40 countries, with more than 100 teams in the UK.
Wakey Wheeled Cats were among the first leagues in the country, founded in spring 2009, and the league is ran by the skaters, for the skaters. They train three times a week at Lightwaves Leisure Centre, Wakefield.
Wheeled Cats captain and co-founder Kirsty Quinn said: " We are very proud to be in partnership with the Wildcats and hope that together we can promote our relative sports to Wakefield and help encourage our local community to get involved.
"The Wildcats have been extremely forward-thinking in joining up with an all-female team who play a relatively new, yet serious, sport to the UK – indeed this is quite possibly a first for the roller derby community, and is definitely a positive step forwards for our club."
Wakefield Community Trust Fundraising Officer, James Stephenson, commented: "It's great news that we can work with the Wheeled Cats and we're delighted to be involved with a sport that is growing rapidly in popularity.
"With the recent Sport England report citing that Wakefield has the highest percentage of people in West Yorkshire not taking part in any 30 minute period of exercise each week, we hope a partnership like this can get more people involved in keeping active and healthy.
"We will act as ambassadors for the Wheeled Cats and similarly they will do the same for us with the aim of bring each other's sports to a new audience as well. It's the first of a number of similar partnerships and we're really pleased that the Wheeled Cats are the first of those to be announced."

Cat v Cat: First Intraleague 2013


Dash has hit $100 per coin as its seemingly unstoppable growth surprises even its own developers.
Privacy-focused altcoin Dash has further increased its exponential gains to surpass $100 per coin, having shot up 25 percent in 24 hours.
Defying even its own developers' expectations, the asset has surprised investors and the wider community, again and again, jumping from $23 to $100 in just one month.
While Vinny Lingham described altcoin markets this week as a bubble and warned of an imminent crash, Dash has continued growing without significant retraces.
Nonetheless, as other coins in the top 10 level off, several having themselves set new highs, Dash developers have publicly admitted their coin's surge has left them underprepared.
Taylor made the comments when Dash was still at around $45.
"Deploying those kinds of resources efficiently and for the maximum benefit of the network is going to be difficult to do," he added.
Ethereum meanwhile continues its own trend-setting, surpassing the $30 barrier in the past hour. Conversely, Monero has appeared to slow down and even slightly backtrack on personal highs achieved in the last few days, with a continuation of recent gains less apparent.


"Mr. Obama is expected to discuss tensions in the Middle East, in particular the trouble posed by Islamic State and potential ways to tackle it.
See: "Obama, Heeding Close House Vote, Should Press Saudis to End Yemen War" by Robert Naiman. Also see "Kerry and Saudi prince pledge to fight extremism after Orlando shooting, while LGBT Saudis face execution," by Ben Norton.
Hartung is the director of the Arms and Security Project at the Center for International Policy and a senior adviser to the Security Assistance Monitor.
The New York Times recently published his piece "Obama Shouldn't Trade Cluster Bombs for Saudi Arabia's Friendship," which states: "He should avoid doing what he did at Camp David last May, the last time he met with [the Gulf Cooperation Council]: promise more arms sales. Since Mr. Obama hosted that meeting, the United States has offered over $33 billion in weaponry to its Persian Gulf allies, with the bulk of it going to Saudi Arabia. The results have been deadly.


Good Friday friends, not in the religious sense; but rather, in a "we are happy it's Friday" sense. We've held off for as long as we possibly could, but it's time, once again, for a little shoe pessimism. So, if you're a fan of truly ugly footwear, you might not want to read the following… that's our disclaimer. Additionally, we apologize in advance if you own or are thinking of owning either of the following two featured ugly shoes. Enjoy!
First up is the Oompa-Loompa-esque platform heel by our poor friends at Net-a-Porter.
Second is the not-so-hot space age boot called the mux.lux.flux. A great shoe to complete the stage costumes of our friends David Bowie and Elton John, but not so much for the common woman heading out for a night on the town.

The Rio Olympics are due to start this weekend. In many countries, the focus will be on that team's prospects of winning medals, and the potential to become their most successful representatives ever. That's certainly some of the media coverage in Israel. But there is another significant point of interest here, and it's an important (and emotional) one. We will never forget.
Germany had a tip-off three weeks ahead of Munich massacre, Der Spiegel claims.
I am not sure which, if true, is worse: the failure to act, or the cover up.


The Australian dollar has held up remarkably well in the Asian trading session today considering the developments overnight in the Asian region.
North Korea once again fired a long-range missile over Japan and into the ocean which sent many Japanese people ducking for cover in fear of their lives.
When North Korea launched their previous missiles, the Aussie dollar sunk as investors exited riskier assets in favour of safer ones like gold or the US dollar but as we can see on the Chart the Australian dollar has found strong support as it has in the past 2 days at around the US79.80c mark.
If there is a strong condemnation from the US over North Korea's missile launch such as Donald Trump threatening military action or even stronger sanctions than already in place ,the Australian dollar could fall back further to the US79.00c level where this is an even stronger support level which will be hard to break.
The currency has now formed a strong double top with the last top higher than the previous one which is a strong bullish sign.


Now, we would like to introduce you the Celine Trapeze Bag for the Fall Winter Collection, we put the materials and the prices below.
Are Replica Handbags Better Than The Authentic? Yes, Sometimes They Are!
I've always been proud of my replica handbags, no matter if they were good on bad. From my good shopping experiences, I've learned what to expect from replica purses and I've come to the conclusion that replicas are good investments.
From my bad experiences with replica handbags sites, I've learned to be more understanding and relaxed. But the most important thing was that I've gathered enough knowledge and now I can easily spot the differences between authentic and knockoff handbags, I know how real leather looks like, I know how and why it's treated and many other things.
I have to admit, there were times when I thought I should give up searching for perfect replica handbags and save money to buy the authentic. So I joined a lot of forums, chats and groups where people were commenting about their bag purchase. And I discovered that authentic bags can also be faulty, no matter how much you've paid for them.
A few days ago, I was reading some comments on a forum and found something that I thought you must see. A girl, it doesn't matter her name, bought an authentic Celine Trapeze bag and this is what she received.
Guess how much she paid for this bag? $2450! Guess where she bought the bag from? Bergdorf Goodman! Seeing these pictures, I was like "Yey! My replica handbags are better that this!" On a second thought, this might be a onetime mistake, but I don't think so. There are numerous complaints on this forum and not only about Celine. Other brands also make mistakes like this and they are more and more often.
Now, why should we buy authentic bags when there's a chance to receive something like this? Why shouldn't we buy knockoff handbags when even authentic Celine bags are made in China?

Q: Compiling ES6 and VUE JS not working in IE 11 So I am having an issue with ES6, Webpack and VUE JS in IE 11. This works in Edge, Chrome, Safari and Firefox, but not IE 11.

 mix.minify(['public/js/main.js', 'public/js/vue.js', 'public/css/style.css']);

I have also installed and done: babel polyfill and done: import "@babel/polyfill"; in the boot.js we have.
I am unsure what the error is aside from "syntax". Is there something I mam missing?

A: As already mentioned, IE11 doesn't support ES6. Looking at the line of code that throws that error you'll quickly find ES6 features (arrow functions for example).
Polyfilling will not provide you with the ability to use ES6, the only thing you can do is configure babel to target ES5 instead.
You can do that by editing your babelrc (for Babel 7):
{
  "presets": [
    [
      "@vue/app",
      {
        "targets": {
          "ie": "11"
        }
      }
    ]
  ]
}

If you're still using Babel 6, according to the github docs you should be able to use it like so:
{
  "presets": [
    ["env", {
      "targets": {
        // The % refers to the global coverage of users from browserslist
        "browsers": [ ">0.25%"]
      }
    }],
    "vue"
  ]
}

A: Here a real example from a production Vue 2.x app designed specifically for IE11. I wanted to provide a complete view of everything I used to transpile ES6 to ES5, add polyfill promises and async functions, which IE11 doesn't support natively. Note that I specifically target IE11 in the babel.config.js file.
package.json:
"@vue/cli-plugin-babel": "^3.12.1",
"regenerator": "^0.14.7",
"core-js": "^3.19.3",
"es6-promise": "^4.2.8"

main.js:
require('es6-promise').polyfill();
import "core-js/stable";
import "regenerator-runtime/runtime";

babel.config.js:
module.exports = {
  presets: [
    ['@vue/app', {
        "targets": {
          "browsers": [
            "> 1%",
            "last 3 versions",
            "ie >= 11"
          ],
        },
        "useBuiltIns": "entry"
      }]
  ]
}

The Oral History of a 1999 Comedy Movie
By Keaton Patti
Photograph by Jack Sullivan / Alamy
To commemorate the twentieth anniversary of the film, we asked the cast and crew to weigh in on the classic comedy that thirty-five-year-old men are still quoting to this day.
The Screenplay
Writer/Director: The idea really came to me out of the blue. I saw a guy with a funny voice fall down a flight of stairs and I thought, Wow, that could be a short film. But then I saw that same guy stand up and immediately get hit in the groin by an errant baseball and I thought, Wow, that could be an entire feature if I added some sex stuff. A week later, I had finished the script's first and only draft.
Male Lead: The script was so solid. So dense. Real thick paper. Bound well, too. Don't see scripts like that nowadays. Now they're all PDFs.
Male Co-Lead: It was just crammed with gags. Some pages were entirely gags. No dialogue. No description of the gags. Just the words "We'll do some gags here." I remember asking my agent, "Can a movie have this many gags?" And, I'll never forget this, he said that it could.
Executive Producer: Most screenplays put me to sleep. They're long. They're boring. A majority of the words are spelled correctly. And, usually, I read them in bed at 2 A.M., after taking several Ambien. Not this one. This one was special. It was such a wild ride that, at the end of its forty-seven pages, I still wanted more. More time with the characters. More gross-out scenes involving naked elderly people. More Ambien. I'm a man, by the way.
The Casting
Executive Producer: We were very deliberate with our casting. There's an old saying in Hollywood: "The people you cast are going to be the people who are in the movie."
Writer/Director: I didn't want actors, but, in the end, we went with actors.
Male Lead: The audition was very interesting. I had my lines memorized, but they told me to improvise instead. I didn't know how to improvise, so I just made things up on the spot. I thought they would be mad, but they actually loved it.
Male Supporting Actor: Coming from a Shakespearean background, I didn't expect the audition to feature so much swearing. Or so much synthetic semen.
Lead Boom Operator: Normally, us boom operators aren't brought in for auditions, and this was no different.
The Atmosphere on Set
Writer/Director: We bonded so much. We were like a family. And I'm not just saying that because I hired most of my family to make the film.
Male Lead: It wasn't like work. It felt more like summer camp. We all had nicknames and inside jokes. We'd all go swim in the lake after a day's shooting. Our parents sent us cookies in the mail. There was a bear scare for a few days.
Third Male Co-Lead: This was my first feature film, so I was worried that people would, you know, haze the new guy. Couldn't have been further from the truth. I was the one who hazed all of them.
Executive Producer: I was on set quite often, and I can describe the vibe in seven words: fun, fun, white, male, fun, bear, fun.
Head Caterer: They loved my spaghetti and meatballs. They even added a line in the movie about my spaghetti and meatballs. When the one character orders at a restaurant, he orders spaghetti and meatballs. Before having my spaghetti and meatballs, that character was going to order linguini with clam sauce. I got a writing credit for that.
The Editing Process
Writer/Director: After shooting for two months, we started editing and were, like, "Wow, we really have a movie here." This wasn't a commercial or a TV show. This thing that we'd shot was a movie. That doesn't always happen.
Editor: We were getting major pushback from the studio to keep the film under eighty minutes, so a lot of great scenes where a guy was accused of being gay because he wore a polo shirt or drank wine instead of beer were left on the cutting-room floor.
Love-Interest Actress: The four scenes in which I had lines were cut. I was told it was because the bear stole the footage, but I've since spoken with several zoologists, and they've said that doesn't sound like something a bear would do.
Executive Producer: It was my idea to have bloopers play during the credits. I thought it was important to show the audience how many times the actors fucked up.
Executive Producer: The movie really encapsulated a moment in time. The movie is 1999. I mean, Kid Rock did the entire soundtrack, and Monica Lewinsky makes four uncredited cameos. Now, if you were to ask me, after two decades, does the film still hold up? Has it aged well? Is it so politically incorrect and sexist that it's outright offensive to nearly everyone on Earth? If you asked those questions, I wouldn't lie to you. So please don't ask me those questions.
Male Lead: You couldn't make this film today. And I'm not saying that because half of the people who helped make it have been "cancelled" and subsequently "incarcerated." I'm not saying that because we had so many white actors playing characters of every different ethnicity, including fictional ethnicities. I'm saying that because we filmed so many scenes in fully operational Blockbusters.
Writer/Director: I still can't walk down the street without people stopping me, telling me how much this film means to them and their fraternity members or co-workers at JPMorgan. I've made scores of films since, including four sequels and two reboots, but nothing's been quite the same. We captured lightning in a bottle. A bottle of synthetic semen.
Lead Boom Operator: I haven't worked in film since. That bear ate my only boom mike.

I suppose if I could say anything here it'd be concern that the human culture I've created through the brand I currently steward would somehow be lost through advancements in technology and automation platforms. Real humans connecting and communicating with other real humans can't be replaced no matter how hard we might want to try.
The successful DMO model five years from now will be crystal clear on their audience, shedding their diluted attempt to serve too many masters. Currently the DMO model is hampered by the political baggage it attempts to carry in catering to multiple audiences, both internal and external, thereby hampering its ability to truly connect with their inbound travel audience. As long as any marketing organization tries to serve multiple audiences they'll exist similar to a house divided on itself.
The greatest value a DMO can add is its expertise on their destination. That'll never change. The things that set them apart, make them unique and create authentic experiences in their own backyards can't be copied by any other destination. The way to create trust, earn it really, and then deliver on it, is by forging their own paths upon those unique differentiators. Every destination is a little weird in other words, and by leaning into those things that make them weird, they'll set themselves apart and create more authentic connections with their audience.
I think some of the best marketing happening today is around technology and manufacturing. Start to study and reverse engineer any campaign in the tech and manufacturing sector and you'll be given a crash course in great story-telling and the bigger picture those stories sweep audience into. Too often, tourism marketing falls short of great story-telling and relies too much on story selling. The audience always knows the difference.
The greatest thing I think we'll see five years from now is an even greater dependence on the only property a DMO can own, its website. Too many DMO websites are awful, tell little to now stories, and create horrible user experiences. Is it any wonder than travelers don't flock to them in their path to purchase? Social media will continue to change and create way too many unexpected curve balls for the DMO. The only way (IMO) a DMO can set themselves up for success five years from now is by doubling down on their digital road map transforming their average to awful sites into becoming the best answer to the traveler's question for when and where they are inspired to travel.
Data will continue to be a hot button commodity but few will know what to do with it. Doing something with data, requires a skill set, let's just be honest here, very few know how to develop. Listening. Unless you can learn to listen to the data, making decisions from it will continue to be arbitrary. For example, for years research in neuroscience and brain chemistry has proven a concept called the Paradox of Choice. And yet if you survey the websites of DMOs you'll see something a lot closer to the menu of Cheesecake Factory instead of something truly helpful. Cheesecake Factory wins with their exception to the rule because it's their unique thing. They get away with it in other words where as a DMO just confuses the user. Data explains it clearly, but few DMO marketers pay attention.
Visit Savannah uses a tiered vetting system to measure the value of influencers, calculate engagement, review the strongest platforms, and writes each influencer contract accordingly.
In this popular presentation at eTourism Summit, Lauren Cleland, the DMO's director of digital marketing, shared how it's done. To steal this idea, click here.
"We're removing inauthentic likes and follows," reads a new Instagram message popping up on some users' phones this week.
Seems that Instagram is getting wise, cracking down on people and apps who are gaming the system. Instagram says it has developed machine learning tools to help detect and remove fake popularity boosting. This is the first time Instagram has publicly discussed removing fake likes from posts, according to media reports.
The move comes as major social media sites face increasing criticism over the presence of trolls, fake news, and misinformation on their platforms. Earlier this year, Twitter purged tens of millions of accounts from users' follower counts (The Travel Vertical, 7/10/2018).
And, reports Recode, Instagram isn't done: 'We'll have more updates in the coming weeks on additional measures we're taking to tackle inauthentic activity on Instagram,' the company wrote on its blog." Click to read more from CNN and TechCrunch.


When teachers collaborate to bring about change, develop professional learning communities, and continually revisit core curricula to make sure the content responds to all students' needs, they embrace shared leadership roles. Sometimes, it's the needs of the students that nudge teachers to collaborate and create change. This occurred recently in a local intermediate school where I, the author, facilitates professional learning and teach fifth-grade students who read on a K -Grade 1 instructional level.
The fifth grade English language Arts (ELA) team wanted an extra class to support these striving readers. However, the principal was new and was not convinced that taking away one of two electives of students would work favorably. Continual discussions and dogged persistence on the part of three ELA teachers resulted in an agreement to schedule an extra daily reading class. The principal gathered additional time for this class by removing a few minutes from other classes. To obtain support, teachers called parents and spoke to children carefully explaining why they would lose an elective as well as the purpose of additional reading instruction.
Administrators and teachers agreed to monitor progress carefully, and if students did not improve by the end of the year, they would look for other solutions. In addition to 60-minutes of reading and language arts, these students had an extra 73-minutes of reading instruction that included: a daily, interactive, instructional read aloud, building fluency by practicing reading and performing self-selected poems, and guided and independent reading (Fountas &Pinnell, 1996; Rasinski & Griffith, 2011; Robb, 2013). What made this curriculum a resounding success was that the school district funded classroom libraries of 600 hundred books in each fifth-grade class and purchased beautiful and engaging books for students to learn from and read. However, it was teachers using leadership skills to advocate for students' needs that enabled students to make two to four years progress in reading instructional levels.
For collaborative teacher leadership to support students' learning and teachers' professional growth, schools need to embrace the concept and make it a sustainable aspect of their mission (Levin & Schrum, 2016; Wilhelm, 2010). For this to happen, the concept of sharing leadership, because it benefits the entire school community, needs to be one of the principal's core beliefs.
For teacher leadership to flourish in a school, a principal develops an environment that encourages taking risks and supports teachers who advocate for students, encourage professional learning, and take measures to improve curriculum (Hallinger & Heck, 2010). When administrators play a key role in developing teacher leaders, such encouragement creates a culture that offers leadership opportunities and develops respect for ideas that teachers raise for students and school improvement.
Schedule common planning times for departments or grade level teams.
Save time by emailing procedures and announcements to staff in order to offer teachers time to meet during full faculty meetings.
Honor successful advocacy initiatives with a note and/or conversation.
Provide ongoing professional learning for all staff so they are connected to best practices and technology.
Meet with teams and departments and listen to their suggestions for school improvement. Then, encourage teachers to create and implement advocacy plans.
By distributing leadership among teachers, principals allow them to explore and find ways to advocate and lead that best fit their talents and skills. Ultimately, teacher advocates can advance school initiatives and have a positive effect on school change and improvement. Moreover, when principals share leadership opportunities with teachers, they enhance and nurture the personal qualities of teacher leaders.
Build positive relationships with colleagues, students, parents, and administrators.
Listen actively to others to respond to their ideas.
Maintain confidentiality and are trustworthy.
Have an open mind, are flexible, and can listen to and discuss views that they presently do not embrace.
Have a clear understanding of their school's culture.
Offer colleagues positive feedback including new ideas and professional materials that discuss best practices, differentiation, and balanced literacy.
Support new and experienced teachers by observing and/or listening, then providing feedback that helps and matters.
Share instructional resources with colleagues.
Put students at the center of all teaching and learning decisions.
All ten traits can be learned through reflection, practice, and by interacting with colleagues who possess them (Dweck 2007; Levin & Schrum 2016).
What Does Collaborative Leadership Mean for Teachers?
Formal teacher leaders are department or team leaders, mentors, or instructional coaches. Usually teachers apply for these positions and receive training to insure success.
Informal teacher leaders improve schedules, recommend curriculum changes, and lobby for professional learning opportunities.
Create an advocacy group for professional learning using social media, book studies, and sharing articles and student work on Google Documents.
Organize grade-level groups who discuss students in order to identify the most effective interventions.
Be inclusive and invite colleagues to study scheduling issues and then suggest changes to the principal. The more teachers and staff are included in an advocacy group, the greater the outreach for your messages and ideas would be. Moreover, as the outreach increases, the more staff you empower and the greater the diversity of feedback you receive on issues.
Form a group to review curriculum and make sure core content responds to every students' needs. Look to differentiation instead of one-size-fits-all (Robb, 2010).
Become a catalyst for positive change in your school and district. Use social media to spread ideas. Create podcasts and videos and post them on your school's websites for parents, other schools, and the surrounding community, so you inspire others to join initiatives to support children and teachers.
When advocacy is part of teachers' responsibilities, collaboration and communication increase, groups generate more ideas and have more choices, and the end result is school improvement.
Since teacher advocates have a strong belief in their ability to work hard and collaboratively create positive change, they possess self-efficacy and a growth mindset (Donohoo, 2017; Dweck, 2007). These teachers believe all children can learn with support from caring adults and by working hard. They believe in Dweck's power of 'yet' that lets students know they might not have mastered a concept 'yet', but with consistent work and support they will (Dweck 2007). They discuss growth mindset, so everyone knows that mastery occurs at different times. Students come to understand that they can improve and achieve with support and practice.
Over time, students might abandon the fixed mindset that whispers: You have no ability to change your learning patterns and to improve reading achievement in all subjects. As a result, self-efficacy and a collective efficacy develop among students learning with teachers who believe their students can and will improve. The important work they do for children, curriculum, their colleagues, and building professional learning communities provide much needed support for administrators.
Teacher leaders become advocates for students, and as they support learners they develop self-confidence and self-efficacy among their students. In addition, teacher leaders have a growth mindset; they understand that with practice and hard work goals can be achieved. Administrators who distribute leadership by encouraging teacher advocacy develop an inclusive and collaborative school culture. In addition, such a culture has the potential of collectively embracing a growth mindset and collective efficacy.

This qualitative case study sought to discover if the African Methodist Episcopal Church is intentional in the discipleship formation of its members. My study examined five African Methodist Episcopal Churches in the Midwest and included 60 clergy and non-clergy participants. I conducted one-on-one interviews with the clergy and I held focus groups of seven to ten participants with the non-clergy. Also as part of the study, I observed weekly worship services, adult Sunday school classes, and mid-week Bible studies at each of the five churches. The major findings revealed discipleship formation is not a one-time event, but a journey with four components: 1) the participants understanding and definition of discipleship as journey, 2) discipleship formation journey aids inside the church, 3) discipleship formation journey hindrances inside the church, and 4) discipleship formation journey aids outside the church. I analyzed the findings using four theoretical frameworks: 1) myths, rituals, habits, and the sacred; 2) critical pedagogy; 3) black liberation theology; and 4) transformational leadership. Analysis of the data revealed the foundational Christian education programs within the church are struggling with being relevant to people's everyday lives. Second, role models play an important part in discipleship formation. Third, because of time constraints, church leaders do not get to focus on their discipleship formation so they can be role models and help others on their journeys.
My findings suggest the following recommendations: first, perform a study of the Christian education programs beginning with Sunday school; second, develop a discipleship formation curriculum for leaders; third, offer exposure to discipleship formation aids outside the local church.
