The Medical team is the heart beat of the organization. Every patient's wellbeing is the team's primary concern and no efforts are spared to make the patient physically comfortable, pain free and emotionally assured. Be it pouring rain or blistering heat, the team visits the patient and family at their home weekly, fortnightly, monthly – as the patient's condition may require.
The Medical team comprises doctors, nurses and counsellors. They work as units – comprising one doctor, 2 to 3 nurses and one counsellor per unit. They divide Mumbai into zones, each unit handling a zone. With a multidisciplinary approach, each unit plans and monitors the medical protocol, liaises with the patients' GP, Oncologist/Radiologist and provides feedback to the Senior Medical Officer.

The list of restaurants and amazing chefs for England's Seafood FEAST is growing quickly. Here we show you a closer look at Barry George, Head Chef at Cantina Kitchen in Paignton and tell you what you can expect from Barry and his team at this year's event. Plus an exclusive look at one of his favourite seafood recipes, fresh oysters!
So what did Barry have to say for himself then..?
Barry always wanted to run a cafe, and so, two years ago he came to Paignton and setup Cantina Kitchen with his sister-in-law Kate. Before that, he took his first kitchen job while at school as a kitchen porter in a country hotel and loved the environment and people he worked with. He eventually worked his way up through the kitchen and completed college to become a professional chef. Before joining Cantina he was a successful head chef and restaurateur. He has also cooked privately for celebrities, food critics, magazine editors and also (somehow!) managed a 200 cover pop-up backstage VIP restaurant at Glastonbury.
Barry says he absolutely loves seafood, but when cooking it, you don't always need to over do it. He loves fish cooked quite simply so you get the fresh sea taste from the fish, without overdoing it with too many sauces and flavours.
When he's not in the kitchen, he loves to get in the water and go sea swimming, anywhere in the bay!
What are you doing for England's Seafood FEAST?
People can expect a real showcase of the best seafood that the bay has to offer from Cantina Kitchen during the FEAST. They have a myriad of events on to cater for all seafood taste buds and even some adventure thrown in there as well! Here is a list of all the events they will be putting!
I between all that cooking and swimming, we managed to get Barry to prepare some amazing fresh oysters for us to try! England's Seafood FEAST is all about celebrating the quality and diversity of fresh seafood landed at Brixham Harbour every day. This is exactly what Barry did with this dish and is something you might be able to try at this year's event.
If you can't make the FEAST then check out his recipe below. Shhhhh… just don't tell everyone!
Mix together in a bowl, the plain flour, corn flour, baking powder, miso. Slowly add Soda water until you have the consistency of double cream. Add ice cubes and leave to rest.
Grate ginger and garlic into a small jar then add the rest of the ingredients and shake well until all mixed together. Any leftovers can be stored in the fridge for later use.
Thinly slice all of the vegetables and mix together and dress with Asian dressing.
Cantina Kitchen and Bar is an award wining family run business conveniently located slap bang next to one of the most beautiful dog friendly beaches in Paignton, specialising in serving local Devon produce including fresh fish from Brixham, local beers, wines and ciders. Cantina is chilled-out place for people to relax, unwind and experience great food in a lovely atmosphere! We are extremely family friendly with lots of games to keep both big and little kids entertained. Throughout the year we hold a number of events.
Join the chef and team at Cantina to learn how to prepare a dressed local crab. Enjoy the fruits of your labours - sit back, relax and enjoy your crab supper. Booking is essential.
Try our delicious fish and chip supper, with Brixham hake and fantastic chips cut by hand from red Devon potatoes. And to make things better it's all washed down with a glass of fizz.
Please note this event is fully booked. Cantina are considering an additional date, so contact them direct to express your interest. Get out on the water as part of England's Seafood FEAST. Try out SUPs, kayaks and rowing boats and join us afterwards for a bbq back at Cantina. There is no charge for the paddling - just pay for the bbq.
Join us for a foraging walk and supper as part of England's Seafood FEAST. Led by a local expert in the edible seashore we'll sample the best in local seasonal freebies. Once we've collected your goodies we'll bring them back to Cantina where you'll work with our chef to prepare a lovely light supper. To book your place contact us direct.
As part of England's Seafood FEAST, we'll be joined by the wonderful Nick from Brixham Seafood Farms to talk about the wondrous joy that is our local farm Elberry Cove mussel. Our chefs will show you how to prepare the mussels and we'll give you some ideas for cooking them. Once you have worked up an enormous appetite we'll satisfy you with gorgeous bowls of mussel loveliness.

The cover, designed and illustrated by Matt Taylor, features a plethora of Marvel movie characters spanning the last decade. Taylor is known for his illustration work on book covers and album covers, and of course, his many Mondo prints including: Guardians of the Galaxy, Thor Ragnarok, and Star Wars. Bonus: He is also joining us as a Comic-Con special guest this year!
Souvenir Book cover (left); Exclusive Print (right). Art by Matt Taylor, © 2018 MARVEL. Click the image to see a larger version!
New this year, the Souvenir Book cover is being reproduced as an exclusive print, utilizing Mondo's signature high-quality silkscreen technique. This giant (24" x 36") print is on 100 lb. paper stock and printed in 8 colors. Each print will be numbered by the printer and signed by artist Matt Taylor.
This print is available exclusively to Comic-Con 2018 attendees, and offered in a very limited run of 1,000 copies. If you have a Comic-Con 2018 attendee badge linked to your Comic-Con Member ID account, you are eligible to submit interest in purchasing this special print. The Comic-Con 2018 Exclusives Portal is now open until Thursday, June 7 at 12:00 PM (noon) Pacific Time, for submissions of interest for the Mondo Print. You may submit your interest in a Mondo print, but please remember that doesn't guarantee you'll get one. We said this is limited, right? Only one submission of interest per Member ID, please … you can only "apply" once! (The final print and cover will not include the "www.comic-con.org" watermark on it)
Ok, so what about the details and fine-print? All the stuff you need to know to submit interest is right here, but this is the quick version. Starting tomorrow, log in to your Member ID account, click the link under the "Exclusives" tab to load the Exclusives Portal, and submit your interest.

That email will include information about how to see if you were selected.
The cost of the print is $65.00 + sales tax ($5.04) for a grand total of $70.04. Although the prints are numbered, you cannot request a specific number. You must submit payment via credit card before June 29, and you can only pick up your print onsite during the event … we will NOT be mailing these out! Attendees who were selected to purchase a print must check their selection confirmation for details about onsite redemption, and pick-up hours and location.
Mondo prints sell out fast each time one is released on their website, and we expect this one—a first-time ever Comic-Con exclusive print—to sell out, too. A limited number of the prints have been set aside for fundraising purposes for the forthcoming Comic-Con museum in San Diego's Balboa Park, so if you don't get one this time, there's a chance you can get one later on through the museum.

How does PCT apply to RTP?

Parking is available in Hotel car park but rail to Nundah station is a good option. Prince of Wales Hotel has accommodation and is reasonably priced. Book early though, POW is conveniently located about 10-15 mins from airport and is popular with overnight travellers.
We look forward to working with you again this year and to welcoming people new to RTP®.
This process was developed by Edward E. Ford and is called The Responsible Thinking Process (RTP)®. It is based on Perceptual Control Theory (PCT), (See section titled About Perceptual Control Theory).
What brings about the growing belief in students that they can make things better for themselves? What promotes change within another person, and what makes change possible?
First, it is the belief that someone cares, that someone really respects you and is willing to work with you until you can succeed.
Second, it is the belief that somehow it is possible to succeed, to make things better, and to resolve our internal conflicts.
The Responsible Thinking Process®, if properly used, is designed to teach educators how to teach students to develop a sense of responsibility for their own lives and to respect the lives of everyone around them.
This unique classroom discipline process is both non-manipulative and non-punitive. It creates mutual respect by teaching students how to think through what they are doing in relation to the rules of wherever they are. This gives students personal accountability for their actions.
The key component of this classroom discipline process is its focus on how students can achieve their goals without getting in the way of others who are trying to do the same thing. In short, it teaches students how to respect others.
What are your students learning from the discipline program at your school ?
WARNING: Some are claiming to teach RTP but are neither authentic nor qualified.
and some schools claiming to use RTP, that are not authentic.
they would be in violation of the Lanham Act.

Miles In The Sky July 22, 1968
Clive Davis, the new head of Columbia, understood the implications of the rise of pop, rock, and folk music. He strongly urged the jazzmen in his catalogue to evolve or to leave. Both intrigued and scornful of the white man's music, Miles was inspired to take up the challenge and leave the ghetto of popular black music—soul and funk—to which he felt rock music was indebted. Beginning in December 1967, he experimented in the studio, much like the Beatles, letting the tapes turn continuously and leaving the editing to his producer Teo Macero. He imposed an electrical keyboard on Herbie Hancock and frequently called in a guitarist. Taking the initiative again, he wrote two titles: "Country Son," with its contrasting moods, and "Stuff," unabashedly funk, with
Ron Carter on the electric bass guitar. On "Paraphernalia," Wayne Shorter continued to explore his imaginary constructions which George Benson's guitar (à la Wes Montgomery) coarsened, while Tony Williams invented paranormal computations in "Black Comedy." The album was entitled Miles In The Sky, with a nod to the Beatles' song "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds."

It should testify to the structure and qualities of such a unity.

This was taken from a large puddle in a sunny field where the snow had completely melted. The grass here was long and dry, forming small clumps or tussocks, and the water itself had turned brownish. A number of pieces of straw were also taken, and apparently a water beetle, though it was not evident at first.
Throughout the sample there were many longer and shorter spirilla, bdelloid rotifers, Stylonychia and similar spirotrichs, and small green euglenids. Initially there were also many golden Uroglenopsis and dinoflagellates. After a day the latter had congregated on the side facing the light, forming a greyish cloud near the surface.
By the fourth day there were few algae and films began to form on the surface. These contained clumps of brownish vein-like filaments, and whitish regions with many small moving spheres. Many bell-shaped sessilids had settled around them, but most were telotroch-like and few had any sign of a stalk. Astylozoon were also plentiful here.
Bursaria occurred both on the films and swimming below them. The latter could be seen as moving specks and I caught some in a watch-glass, but they mysteriously dissolved a minute later, while the ones on the films could be kept safely. They were accompanied by some brownish colpodids and pinkish Blepharisma.
↬ Thanks to Bruce Taylor, author of It Came from the Pond, for the identification of Stichotricha, and to him and Dr. William Bourland for confirming the likely identification of Bursaria truncatella.

Defense Dept. Agrees to Disclosure of PTSD Records for Vets Clinic Clients
Military Personnel and the Putsch at the U.S. Capitol — A Commentary by Eugene R. Fidell and Rachel VanLandingham, Lt Col, USAF Just Security
The U.S. District Court in Connecticut approved a settlement in Vietnam Veterans of America et al v. Dept. of Defense et al., a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit brought against the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) on behalf of the Vietnam Veterans of America and the National Veterans Council for Legal Redress by the Veterans Legal Services Clinic. The veterans groups sought records regarding implementation of a September 2014 directive by then-Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel requiring that military record correction boards give "liberal consideration" to applications by veterans with PTSD who had received an other-than-honorable or other bad discharge and later seek to have their discharge status upgraded. Under the settlement, DOD agreed to release statistics on a quarterly basis for the next two years concerning PTSD applications and adjudications by each board and each service branch.
"Vietnam Veterans of America has long held that thousands of Vietnam veterans suffering from Post-traumatic Stress Disorder were wrongfully discharged with bad paper," said John Rowan, VVA National President. "The overwhelming majority of them were not malingerers. They were not cowards. They served honorably and well, and did what was asked of them. But they were suffering from what is now known as PTSD at a time when PTSD was not an accepted mental health diagnosis. This settlement will help veterans and the public ensure that the record correction boards faithfully implement Secretary Hagel's instruction and enable many of these veterans to get a modicum of the justice denied them for so long."
"Nearly two years ago, NVCLR and my brother Conley Monk helped bring a class-action lawsuit against the Department of Defense to hold its record correction boards accountable," said Garry Monk, Executive Director for the National Veterans Council for Legal Redress. "For decades, these boards denied upgrades to veterans with less than honorable discharges when these men and women had service-related PTSD. We welcomed the Hagel Memo and believe this settlement will allow the public to monitor the military's compliance with its command. We now need the Department of Defense to make a serious and coordinated effort to reach out to veterans to make sure our troops know where they can find help to apply for an upgrade and remove the lifelong stigma of a bad paper discharge."
"The court order approving this settlement requires DOD to disclose, on a quarterly basis and for the next two years, the number of PTSD applications received by each Army, Navy, and Air Force record correction or discharge review board, as well as the number of applications approved and denied and their docket numbers," said Prof. Michael J. Wishnie, Director of the Veterans Legal Services Clinic at Yale Law School, which represented the plaintiffs in the suit. "For the first time, this will allow veterans, their advocates, and the public to know whether DOD is fulfilling its twin obligations under the Hagel Memo to conduct a vigorous campaign of outreach to eligible veterans and to give 'liberal consideration' to the discharge upgrade applications the boards actually receive."
The Hagel Memo is available here. "Unfinished Business: Correcting 'Bad Paper' for Veterans with PTSD," a November 2015 report that analyzes information previously released as a result of this lawsuit and which was prepared for VVA and NVCLR by Sundiata Sidibe and Francisco Unger of the Veterans Legal Services Clinic, is available here.
The Veterans Legal Services Clinic at Yale Law School represents Connecticut veterans in litigation before administrative agencies and courts, on benefits, discharge upgrade, immigration, and pardon matters. In addition, students represent local and national organizations in non-litigation matters relating to the legal needs of veterans, including regulatory and legislative reform efforts, media advocacy, strategic planning, and other matters.

The Long Man of Wilmington is a hill figure near the hamlet of Wilmington, East Sussex, England on the slopes of Windover Hill. It was formerly known as the Wilmington Giant or, locally, as The Green Man. The Long Man is 235 feet (72m) tall and is designed to look in proportion when viewed from below. It was once thought that the figure had originated in the Iron Age or, possibly, the Neolithic period but more recent archæological work has shown that the figure may have been cut in the 16th or 17th century. From afar the design appears to be carved from the underlying chalk however the modern figure is actually formed from white-painted breeze blocks.

Appointment of New Head of Academy
Next Home Game…This Friday!!!
Coaching Vacancies
Statement from Limerick FC
Playoff: "It's About Being Patient On & Off The Pitch" – Kelly
Home » Sligo Preview: "There's A Clear Focus To Get Goals" – Russell » Sligo Preview: "There's A Clear Focus To Get Goals" – Russell
Sligo Preview: "There's A Clear Focus To Get Goals" – Russell
Limerick manager Martin Russell says their situation leaves them "clearly on a focus to go and get some goals", as they look to end over 200 days at the bottom with a final-day victory at Sligo Rovers on Friday night (The Showgrounds, 7.45pm). The match is live on RTÉ2 from 7.30pm.
The Shannonsiders must defeat the Bit O' Red and hope that Drogheda United fail to match that result away to Shamrock Rovers, a combination which would lift Limerick off the foot of the table for the first time since 10 April and send them into next week's playoff.
Limerick have faltered at home in recent weeks, losing three on the bounce at the Markets Field, but they are unbeaten away from there since July with three wins in four including a 3-2 success at Turner's Cross.
That – as well as their win at Galway United earlier this month – gives plenty of grounds for optimism that they can finally end their hell and set up a date with either Finn Harps or UCD by the Shannon on Monday night.
The mission could not be clearer and Russell is confident that his players can recover from their successive home losses over the past fortnight by claiming three priceless points.
"We're in with a shout. We have to do the business in Sligo and then look towards what happens in Tallaght after that," Russell told LimerickFC.ie.
"It's a difficult league – I said that all along. If the league was to go on another month we'd still only be a couple of games from mid-table. We've clawed our way back into a position where we still have a chance.
"It was always going to be a tight competitive league, for the teams at the top and for those between the middle and bottom. We go into Friday's game knowing it's a difficult one but also Drogheda go to Shamrock Rovers which is a difficult game.
"Sligo will want to finish their season in the right way. We've just got to focus on putting in a performance that gives us the best chance of getting a win and we'll see what happens then.
"We have already bounced back from a defeat. That question has been answered. For me, the lads have already proven their character, and it was a big one by winning in Galway.
"The reality is that we know we need to go to win. That puts us clearly on a focus to go and get some goals. We know what we have to do. We'll give it our best shot.
"We know we need a goal, whether that comes in the first or second half. As we showed in Galway, if we are penned back or it's not going our way, we've got to keep going until the game is finished. We'll go in a positive frame."
Russell is also hoping for another healthy support, having been backed by a magnificent crowd in Eamonn Deacy Park three weeks ago.
"The supporters were very much valued in Galway and created a great atmosphere," Martin said. "We'd like the same again. The fact that it's on TV as well, it would be nice to see a good Limerick support there to show that the club is on the way up."
Sligo, meanwhile, secured their Premier Division status for another year with a superb 2-0 win at Saint Patrick's Athletic last weekend thanks to a second-half brace from substitute Dinny Corcoran.
That was a first win in four. At home, their last outing saw them go down 2-0 to Bohemians but prior to that they had strung a three-match unbeaten run together at The Showgrounds.
The sides have met twice this season. In Sligo in early May, Paul O'Conor's last-gasp equaliser earned a 1-1 draw for Limerick, while in the return in Limerick in August, Russell's side recorded their first victory of the league season at the 22nd attempt. Vinny Faherty twice and Dean Clarke provided the crucial goals in a 3-2 win.
Team News: Limerick must contend without midfielder Lee-J Lynch who misses out through a suspension incurred for the accumulation of five yellow cards, but otherwise the Blues have a fully-fit squad to choose from.
Officials: Referee for the match is Tom Connolly, his assistants are Ciarán Delaney and Darragh Keegan with the fourth official John McLoughlin.
Preview Date: Friday 30 October 2015


This is a book you need to stuff in every xmas christmas stocking that belongs to an adgrunt or a student of advertising. It does just what it says on the tin, it'll show you one hundred visual ideas and one thousand (often great) ads. Like Nouveau? Or not, Joe La Pompe's previous book, and his website, this book is full of twin ads. Triplets, quadruplets and octuplets too. But only in a slight visual common note, the ideas differ. Like when The Economist and Gametek had the same windshield-wiper visual but said two very different things.
The book is a nice thick hardcover, like a good coffee table book should be, with large images collecting the accidental visual twins. The visual similarities are only the execution. Some of the ideas are exactly the same, while others are not the same at all. Selling vastly different products with pixels. Shilling anything from beers to bratwurst with barcodes. Using MC Escher impossible figures for everything from vodka to Volvo.
These aren't your run-of-the-mill boring executions either, they can be groundbreaking in use of media, fresh in style of execution, and seems so new in visual language until woah , there's like ten of them on this page. Some of the double page spreads are a riddle for those less versed in detecting the idea behind the execution, as the executions will be near identical but the similarity ends there. This is why I think every ad-student should have one this christmas , where each double-page spread becomes a game of finding the identical ideas versus the identical executions. This also makes it a great coffee-table book in any advertising agencies reception, lets see if that creative team you make wait out there for half-an-hour agree which is which before you hire them.
In short, get one, it's fun, and you are not properly ad-obsessed if your library lacks this. And please, you who handles the buying of Xmas-bonus baskets for the creative floor - skip the bottle of bad wine and add this book instead. They'll enjoy it.

Q: How to "use" a function type defined in an interface Given an interface:
interface MyProps {
  onEvent: (name: string, data: any) => void;
}

How can I use that function type to prevent unused parameter errors when compiling?
eventHandler = (name: string, data: any) => {
  console.log(data);
}

Because currently I get a compilation error of unused parameter for the "name", but I cannot remove it because it would break the signature of the underlying type.
I was hoping to do something like this, although obviously this doesn't work!
eventHandler: MyProps.onEvent = (name, data) => {
  console.log(data);
}

A: You just have the syntax a bit wrong you need to use ['name']. This is called an indexed type query
interface MyProps {
    onEvent: (name: string, data: any) => void;
}

let eventHandler: MyProps['onEvent'] = (name, data) => {
    console.log(data);
}

Bix (Hardcover)
By Scott Chantler
From the acclaimed Eisner Award–nominated creator of Two Generals and Northwest Passage comes a gorgeous and spare illustrated exploration of the rapid rise and tragic fall of 1920s legendary jazz soloist Leon "Bix" Beiderbecke.
Told in stunning illustrations, Bix is a near-wordless graphic exploration highlighting the career of Leon Bix Beiderbecke, one of the most innovative jazz soloists of the 1920s next to the legendary Louis Armstrong. While composing and recording some of the landmark music in the early history of genre, Bix struggled with personal demons, facing the disapproval of his conservative parents and an increasing dependence on alcohol. Presented in predominantly silent panels to reflect his rebellious outsider quality and inability to communicate in anything other than his own musical terms, Bix tells the story of a music star's rapid rise and tragic fall—a metaphor for the glories and risks inherent in the creative life.
Scott Chantler is the acclaimed creator of the graphic novels Two Generals, Northwest Passage, and the Three Thieves series, which won a Joe Shuster Award. He has also been nominated for five Eisner Awards, two Harvey Awards, and a Doug Wright Award. Find out more at ScottChantler.com.
PRAISE FOR SCOTT CHANTLER AND BIX:
"We're accustomed to seeing beautiful work by award-winning cartoonist Scott Chantler, but this book is particularly special….There's minimal dialogue, and its expressive, silent art, all oriented horizontally, tells the story…..Chantler…varies the number of panels per page, the page layouts and the content of each panel, to pull off the trick perfectly. And it reflects the mood of the story. Frenetic scenes of dancing through the Jazz Age are crowded, while sad moments…are in sparse, measured arrangements. This book's a gem, and so is Chantler." —Toronto Star
"A marvel of imaginative illustrated narration….A vivid interpretation of the life of a remarkable musician." —Kirkus Reviews
"Eisner-nominated Chantler utilizes the deliberate cadence of panels alternating with layered multipanel visual bursts to denote musicality and the excitement of life in this nearly worldless graphic biography, a daring and bold experiment that stunningly succeeds." —Library Journal (starred review)
"Joyful and elegiac by turns…Chantler is…doing something wonderfully new. Succeeds on every level….[A] deeply felt portrait." —Booklist (starred review)
"Crisp, monochrome visuals are reminiscent of midcentury newspaper comics, as well as Seth's Clyde Fans….melancholic, gorgeously orchestrated." —Publishers Weekly
"Wonderfully conceived....Polished and lovely." —Seth, author of Clyde Fans
"A master storyteller."—Alexander Chee
"Somehow Scott manages to up his game with each new volume." —Chris Samnee
"[Chantler's] Two Generals should be given to all prospective cartoonists as a tutorial on how to visually tell tales." —Jamie S. Rich
"Chantler is a talent not to be ignored." —The A.V. Club

Inspiring Generation G: A Floating Antarctic University
Video Release: Follow the students and staff of the Students on Ice University from Grise Fiord, Nunavut - the northernmost community in the Americas - to Ushuaia, Argentina - the southernmost city in the world.
On February 12, 2009, an international team of 71 students and 18 world-class scientists, environmentalists, researchers and educators began their journey to Antarctica, an initiative led by Canadian adventure educator Geoff Green, the founder of Students on Ice Expeditions (SOI). The ship-based expedition is part of the International Polar Year (IPY) 2007–2009, and will include interdisciplinary University-level education and research.
Expedition participants will have the opportunity to earn one of three course credits through Canadian Universities and consider how to be better stewards of the global ecosystem. One of the main goals is for these students to return home as ambassadors and leaders for the planet's environment, with new levels of inspiration and motivation for the future.
"The SOI–IPY Antarctic University Expedition 2009 is bringing University level students from around the world together with an incredible team of experienced Antarctic practitioners," says Geoff Green, the expedition's leader.
"Students on Ice and its University partners – the University of Alberta, the University of Northern British Columbia and the University of Ottawa – are proud to offer this groundbreaking expedition. Our student participants will delve into important Antarctic issues and research that will encourage discussion and the sharing of ideas around the world," says Tim Straka, SOI Education Program Director.
Studying in one of the most exceptional and remote places on Earth, the theme for this expedition is 'INSPIRING GENERATION G - Green, Generous, Grace, Global.' Students will explore this concept as they partake in an education program that examines the physical, biological and human environments of Antarctica, including its history, wildlife and politics. Already, students have been inspired and awed by the coming experience. "No words to express how I'm feeling right now. I am trying to take it all in – total amazement!" says Nishta Sinha, India. The anticipation runs high as they cross the Drake Passage. "I have learned so much already and I know that I will keep learning in the days to come. This is already turning out to be the trip of a lifetime, and I'm looking forward to every minute of what's left, " says Cassie Budd, University of Alberta.
The SOI–IPY Antarctic University Expedition 2009 has been endorsed by the IPY Joint Committee as a prominent and valued component of the IPY program. The expedition represents one of the largest education and outreach initiatives in the world for the IPY 2007– 2009.
Participating students and staff are from across Canada, United States, Japan, USA, New Zealand, Malaysia, Bhutan, UK, Ireland, Australia, Sweden, Argentina, and Germany. An expedition website will track the journey, including daily participant journal entries, photographs and periodic videos: www.uantarctic.org.

Chinese Group participates in pilot logistics project
12th July 2018 Finance 25210
Yesterday, a Memorandum of understanding (MOU) was signed on a European pilot project in the field of cross-border e-Commerce logistics services in Luxembourg with the participation of the Chinese group Henan Imported Materials Public Bonded Centre.
On 10 July 2018, the Luxembourg Ministry of the Economy and the Chinese company Henan Imported Materials Public Bonded Centre signed the MoU for this pilot project in the field of logistics, on the occasion of the visit to the Grand Duchy of the general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party of Henan Province in China, Wang Guosheng.
Cross-border e-commerce in China is growing rapidly and is becoming increasingly important in international trade in goods. Cross-border e-commerce needs to be based on fair and transparent processes in order to facilitate trade while ensuring safety and security throughout the supply chain, so the aim of this pilot project is to set up a sustainable solution for the European market, taking into account developments in the European legislative framework for cross-border e-commerce.
Currently, the Henan Imported Materials Public Bonded Centre in China manages a logistics centre in Zhengzhou that provides e-commerce stakeholders with integrated logistics solutions including warehousing, customs clearance and parcel delivery, among other things, under the supervision of the Chinese customs via a computer system. Wishing to rely on the new air route between Zhengzhou and Luxembourg operated by Cargolux, the Chinese group now wants to set up in Luxembourg a similar model appropriate for the European market in collaboration with logistics players established in Luxembourg.
Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Economy Étienne Schneider said: "This project is part of the development of cross-border e-commerce which represents a challenge as well as a great opportunity for international trade. The implementation of such logistics solutions specifically for cross-border e-commerce is in line with the Grand Duchy's strategy for the development of high value-added logistics services responding to international trade developments."

Fredericktown United Methodist Church
Our local history
What do we offer at FUMC?
Where & When? (Service Times)
Who are our leaders?
The first society of the church was in 1818. Early county histories give some data of meetings in a block house at the corner of North Pleasant and East First Streets, overlooking the Kokosing River. This site was chosen so Indians could be seen in the valley. In 1836 Rev. E.M. Conant was sent to the Fredericktown Circuit. Meetings were held in the wheelright shop located at the corner of West College and North Chestnut Streets. He swept out the shop every Saturday evening and placed seats for the Sunday morning service. The first Methodist Church was built in 1840 on the corner of North Chestnut and Sandusky Street. In 1856, the trustees bought a lot on East Sandusky Street, near the Public Square for $450.00. The new church building was completed and dedicated in the fall of 1857. In 1892 small windows of clear glass were replaced by stained glass windows at a cost of $1,100.00. In 1905 a spire was added. In 1937, the first Methodist Episcopal Church celebrated its centennial with special services held in June. As the church grew, conditions grew crowded. On May 20, 1957, the Official Board approved a motion to abandon the site and relocate on Columbus road. The entire congregation participated in the ground breaking on Sunday, May 22, 1960 for an Educational Unit. In 1970, a legacy from the estate of Mary Dunham was added to the fund designated for the new sanctuary. On May 2, 1971, ground was broken for phase two of the building program. The new sanctuary was completely furnished and ready for occupancy on February 2, 1972. A Consecration Service was held on February 20th.
To all past, present and future members;
In memory of those who once labored
In appreciation of those who now serve;
In hope of an even greater future;
For the praise of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
"Unto God be glory in the Church"
(Ephesians 3:21)


My friend Al Kesselheim wrote a wonderful story about wetlands for the summer issue of Montana Quarterly. In it, he says that wetlands used to be called swamps and were seen as undesirable. We spent time and money to drain the wetlands so we could farm the ground. Now we see them as habitats we should preserve, like the wetlands along Interstate 90 near Bozeman, which is home to this little frog, tons of aquatic insects and waterfowl galore. Al's story goes on to quote Lynda Saul, wetland coordinator for the Montana Department of Environmental Quality, saying that though wetlands only take up five percent of Montana's space, they support more than half of our endangered wildlife."That's why I call them the coral reefs of the West," she says.
Maddy Pope, here waving to a friend by an irrigation pond at Story Mill in Bozeman, is managing the Trust For Public Land's Story Mill restoration project in Bozeman. In Bozeman's early days, the area was converted from a wetlands to a farm. complete with the irrigation pond. Now TPL is turning that around, with plans to drain the pond and re-establish wetlands for area wildlife. "This is about water in our urban core," says Pope, and brags that wildlife abounds on the property still within Bozeman city limits. Deer, mountain lions and a nesting pair of sandhill cranes are just some of the denizens.
John Dooling manages his ranch along the headwaters of the Big Hole River near Jackson, Montana, on the western edge of the state. "I guess you'd say I'm a reactionary conservative," he says. He doesn't like anyone telling him how to run his ranch.

Q: Math.max.apply gives an error CreateListFromArrayLike called on non-object I am working on something for checking what is the max value and whats is the min value.  For this I am using Math.max.apply() and Math.min.apply().
Before I check that I convert an Object out of GeoJson code called from and to.
That looks like this:

{
 "type": "FeatureCollection",
 "features": [
  {
   "type": "Feature",
   "geometry": {
    "type": "Polygon",
    "coordinates": [

       52.648089
      ],
      [
       6.10522,
       52.663572
      ],
      [
       6.089325,
       52.798539
      ],
      [
       6.338356,
       52.790868
      ]
     ]
    ]
   },
   "properties": {
    "name": "DiggitTwoOne",
    "regioFacetId": "tcm:106-353682-1024",
    "level": 3,
    "from": "10",
    "to": "12"
   }
  },
  {
   "type": "Feature",
   "geometry": {
    "type": "Polygon",
    "coordinates": [
     [
      [
       6.105498,
       52.663816
      ],
      [
       6.378605,
       52.648187
      ],
      [
       6.417051,
       52.520692
      ],
      [
       6.173867,
       52.509454
      ],
      [
       6.105498,
       52.663816
      ]
     ]
    ]
   },
   "properties": {
    "name": "DiggitTwoTwo",
    "regioFacetId": "tcm:106-353682-1024",
    "level": 3,
    "from": "13",
    "to": "15"
   }
  }
  ]
}

For now the javascript code looks like this:

var from = event.feature.getProperty("from");
var to = event.feature.getProperty("to");
var mergeObjects = JSON.parse(from,to);

console.log(Math.max.apply(Math,mergeObjects));
console.log(Math.min.apply(Math, mergeObjects));

When I run the javascript code it gives an error like this:
CreateListFromArrayLike called on non-object.
I am using the Objects from and to.
Is there something I did wrong or am I getting it wrong of using it like this.

A: Your problem is that apply accepts an array and you're not passing it that:
var from = event.feature.getProperty("from"),
    to = event.feature.getProperty("to"),
    numArr = [from, to];

Math.max.apply(Math, numArr);
Math.min.apply(Math, numArr);

Is this what you're looking for?

OSAKA BAR ASSOCIATION
Outline of the Osaka Bar Association
Overview of Committees
Institutions for Legal Consultation operated by Osaka Bar Association
The Osaka Bar Association is an organization of practicing attorneys with law offices and legal professional corporations located in Osaka Prefecture.
The Osaka Bar Association is a corporate body established in accordance with the Practicing Attorney Law of Japan. It differs in two primary ways from other professional associations:
Any person who wishes to practice law as an attorney must join the Osaka Bar Association. In other words, the Osaka Bar Association is not simply a voluntary professional association for attorneys, rather, membership is compulsory.
Attorneys are granted a high degree of autonomy which is rather unique among other legal systems of the world (Autonomy of Attorneys).
The affairs of the Osaka Bar Association are carried out based upon membership fees and the efforts of members, with decisions being made in an autonomous fashion. The Osaka Bar Association is recognized by law as a completely self-governing organization, over which there is no governmental ministry having jurisdiction.
Maintaining attorney discipline through the "Discipline Maintenance Committee", "Disciplinary Action Committee", "Dispute Resolution Committee", and other committees.
The Osaka Bar Association guides and oversees attorneys with respect to compliance with and violation of the Practicing Attorney Law and/or the Osaka Bar Association rules, misconduct impairing the dignity and integrity of attorneys, and disputes in relation to legal practice. At the same time, each attorney is granted independence with respect to his or her practice from the standpoint of protecting legitimate rights and interests of clients and confidentiality obligations. For the purpose of balancing these interests and also to achieve the goal of ensuring discipline among members based on careful deliberation, the Osaka Bar Association has implemented a Discipline Maintenance Committee, a Disciplinary Action Committee, a Dispute Resolution Committee, and other mechanisms, which include outside experts.
The motto of the Osaka Bar Association is "A Bar Association Accessible to Citizens".
The Autonomy of Attorneys bases its existence on trust by citizens. Therefore, to secure such trust, the Osaka Bar Association makes following efforts using "A Bar Association Accessible to Citizens" as its motto:
①Holding "Public Meetings"
In order to prevent management of the Osaka Bar Association from lapsing into self-righteousness, and also to reflect a wide range of voices from citizens, the Osaka Bar Association implements Public Meetings. In these meetings, the Osaka Bar Association receives a wide range of candid opinions of members selected from various sectors and levels of society, including consumer groups, mass communication organizations, and universities.
② Implementation of "Public Sessions"
The Osaka Bar Association implements "Public Sessions" which respond to and advise citizens after hearing their demands, complaints, or other concerns regarding an individual attorney's practices (The formal name is "Public Sessions Regarding Attorney Practices").
On June 17, 1880 (the 13th year of the Meiji Era), the "Osaka Union of Advocates" was founded by 58 advocates as a predecessor to the Osaka Bar Association. This was also the period of the rise of the Freedom and Peoples' Rights Movement. In 1889 (the 22nd year of the Meiji Era), the Meiji Constitution was officially announced, and shortly thereafter, when the Practicing Attorney Law was enacted in 1893 (the 26th year of the Meiji Era), the Osaka Bar Association was founded. However, because the attorneys at such time belonged to each individual district court, it was necessary for them to register on attorney lists furnished by the courts. In addition, the bar associations in those days were under the supervision of the chief public prosecutor as in the time of the Osaka Union of Advocates, which meant that there was no autonomy as we have at present.
In the era of Taisho Democracy, members of the Osaka Bar Association handled jury trials and addressed the challenges of unity of the legal profession as non-governmental practitioners, and with the spirit of non-governmental practitioners and anti-authoritarian advocates, were actively involved in human rights activities with respect to rice riots, agrarian disputes, governmental human rights violations, and other activities which allowed them to obtain the trust of citizens and seek improvement of their social position.
Thereafter, though the Osaka Bar Association faced negative consequences as a result of being part of the wartime regime, after the Second World War, the division of powers was recognized (abolishing the judicial system predominated by administrative authority) under the Constitution of Japan, and the Osaka Bar Association acquired Autonomy of Attorneys by promulgation of the current Practicing Attorney Law, Article 1 of which states that the mission of attorneys is "defending fundamental human rights and realizing social justice".
After the war, in the controversy over public safety ordinances under the American occupation, the Red Purge Incident, the Suita Incident, revision of the Police Law and many other cases, the historical role played by the Osaka Bar Association was very significant.
Environmental pollution issues in various locations occurred during the era of accelerated economic growth in post-war Japan, and Osaka was the location of many civil rights movements, such as those against noise pollution created by Osaka Airport, air pollution in the Nishi-Yodogawa district, and other incidents. While members of the Osaka Bar Association fought in the courts, they also advocated establishing environmental rights as a "new human right". Afterwards, there occurred a new era of mass production/mass consumption which generated new consumer-related issues, including food poisoning, defective products, and at-home sales. The Osaka Bar Association established a Consumer Protection Committee to address these problems. Later, the Osaka Bar Association played an active role in consumer finance issues, the Toyoda Shoji scheme and other cases, setting the standard for attorneys nationwide.
Building on the determined efforts and sterling achievements of our predecessors, the Osaka Bar Association will continue to fulfill the mission entrusted to us by the public of defending human rights and fighting for social justice. We aim to provide high quality legal services to all citizens, and as a bar association, we strive to be as accessible as possible to the public.
