  //   with files that already exist on the file system or other download path
  //   reservations. Uniquifying is only done if |conflict_action| is UNIQUIFY.

  // - Posting a task back to the UI thread to invoke |completion_callback| with

  // active paths to enforce uniqueness. It is only used for uniquifying new
  // reservations.
  //
  // Once |completion_callback| is invoked, it is the caller's responsibility to
  // handle cases where the target path could not be verified and set the target
  // path of the |download_item| appropriately.

One of the most common skin problems seen at our clinic is acne. Acne is a pesky problem most often seen in teenagers but also increasingly seen in adults in their 30s or 40s. As it usually affects visible areas such as the face, chest and back, a lot of affected individuals are left embarrassed and traumatised, choosing to cover up with concealers, makeup and high necked clothing. The fantastic news is - treatment is available and can be very effective!
Who should get their acne treated?
Everyone who has acne should seek help to have it diagnosed and treated early and effectively. Unlike the days when most teenagers wait to "grow out of" their acne, most people are now seeking early treatment to prevent the risk of permanent scarring. Most patients are highly satisfied and much happier when they get their acne under control and can once again feel confident about their skin.
Your dermatologist will carefully examine your skin to make the correct diagnosis as there are other conditions that can look remarkably like acne. The typical features of oily skin, blackheads, whiteheads as well as painful red spots or pus filled lesions are tell-tale signs. Treatment options will be recommended based on the severity of the condition.
Special anti-inflammatory, anti-comedonal cleansers can be helpful. These often contain antiseptic ingredients or acids such as salicylic acid or lactic acid. Antibiotic creams or pimple creams can also be helpful in clearing the painful spots. In addition, retinoids can be prescribed to treat comedones and help in prevention of further flares.
If the acne condition is not well controlled by topical medicines, oral medicines such as oral antibiotics or hormonal treatments in combination with prescription creams can be used to offer better control. These are usually taken for several months and patients will notice gradual improvement after 1-2 months of treatment.
Can severe acne be treated effectively?
Even individuals with severe acne can be effectively treated and experience a return of their confidence levels and improvement in their social life. Vitamin A derivatives (isotretinoin or oratane) are highly effective for switching off severe acne, and excellent results can be seen as quickly as 2-3 months. These medicines can reduce the size of oil glands, oil production and skin cells clogging up pores and causing inflammation. Low doses can be used to provide excellent control with minimal side effects. Monitoring of a few blood tests during the course of treatment is essential to ensure your safety whilst taking these medicines. The large majority of patients who complete a course of treatment will achieve excellent clearance of their acne and experience long term remission of acne symptoms.
Can acne marks be treated?
Once active acne is controlled, a lot of patients will unfortunately be left with red or brown marks, and even permanent scars in severe cases. This can continue to be a source of embarrassment and dissatisfaction. Thankfully there is help at hand with some advanced laser treatment.
Laser Genesis is a 1064nm short-pulsed gentle laser that is excellent for improving post acne redness and marks. It is also effective for reducing the appearance of enlarged pores and fine lines. Firstly, it helps to collapse tiny blood vessels at the surface of the skin to reduce redness. Secondly, it promotes the production of healthy collagen to improve shallow acne scars. The great thing about this treatment is that it is extremely comfortable. It does not require any numb cream prior to the procedure, and does not result in any downtime. Patients are able to have the treatment quickly and go straight back to their usual activities. After 5-6 treatments at monthly intervals, most patients will notice brighter, even coloured and smoother skin, with significant improvement in pore size as well.
The Smartxide Fractional carbon dioxide (CO2) laser is a powerful laser that delivers columns of controlled laser energy into the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating the production of new collagen to plump up and smoothen the skin, reducing the appearance of acne scars. This is often effective even for deep acne scars that may be difficult to treat. A course of 4-5 treatments at monthly intervals is recommended for optimal results. The procedure is carried out after numb cream is applied, so minimal discomfort is experienced. Most patients will experience mild redness and micro-crusting for 5-7 days. Some patients may appear tanned for several weeks. As an added bonus, texture, pore size, pigmentation and fine lines will gradually improve, revealing smoother and fresher looking skin!

Q: How to hide the default style scroll bar, when I use overflow:scroll; The effect I want to achieve is to be able to scroll the page, but do not scroll bar

A: To hide the default scrollbar you can use:
::-webkit-scrollbar {
    display: none;
}

I had this problem before, and the above worked in all browsers except IE, so there is a 'hack' you can use:

body, div, html{
    height:100%;
    width:100%;
    padding:0;
    margin:0;
}
body{
    overflow:hidden;
    position:fixed;
}
div{
    overflow-y:scroll;
    position:relative;
    right:-20px;
}

Obituary: Moses George Hogan
March 1, 2003 by: OffBeat Staff	Leave a comment
Classical pianist, composer and renowned arranger of American spirituals Moses Hogan died February 11 at St. Elizabeth's Nursing Home in Harvey after enduring a long struggle with brain cancer. As a member of the first class of the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts, Hogan studied under Ellis Marsalis, and later attended Oberlin College and the Juilliard School. In 1976, he won first place in the 28th annual Kosciusko Foundation Chopin Competition. At the time of his death, Hogan was artist-in-residence at both Dillard and Loyola universities.
In 1980, Hogan formed a choir called the New World Ensemble, and later founded the Moses Hogan Chorale and the Moses Hogan Singers, groups that performed songs of faith at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., and the Sydney Opera House. In 1999, he was selected as editor of The Oxford Book of Spirituals.

Q: Asp.net Item template null vaue pass in variable I am using ASP.NET grid view my code is :
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Id" >
<ItemTemplate>
<a target='_blank' href='Details.aspx?uniId=<%#Eval("uniId")%>&uni_name='<%#Eval("uni_name") %>''><%#Eval("uniId")%>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

server side code is :
UniID = Convert.ToInt32(Request.QueryString["uniId"].ToString());
UniName = Request.QueryString["uni_name"].ToString();

The problem is that UniID variable is working but UniName is passing null value.

A: Get rid of the single quotes around the second call to Eval.
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Id" >
  <ItemTemplate>
    <a target='_blank' href='Details.aspx?uniId=<%# Eval("uniId") %>&uni_name=<%# Eval("uni_name") %>'><%#Eval("uniId")%>
  </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

Think about the HTML your code will render, the target for the hyperlink with only consist of Details.aspx?uniId=someId&uni_name= no matter what uni_name is because the single quote you are trying to encapsulate the value for uni_name with end up closing the value for href.


Facebook is testing ads that run within Marketplace – the tab it launched late last year allowing users to buy and sell their things.
Facebook is becoming very good at finding new places for ads. And it's constantly testing new things, despite the fact that users really don't want any more ads in their feeds. Whether they like them or not, Facebook is going to continue to expand its ads offering in order to give its advertisers the most value for their investment, and to provide users with the best possible ads experience. Facebook's latest ad placement is Marketplace – a tab on the platform where users can buy and sell things.
Marketplace might not be a huge success yet, but the company seems to think highly enough of it to add adds to it. On the other hand, Facebook makes most of its revenue from ads, and since it's running out of ad space on News Feed, it seems desperate to find other places to show its ads – among them, Messenger of course.

Locking in a Low Rate and Making a Final Move to Florida
Jerry and Kathy C. | Ocala, Florida | Buying New Construction
The year 1968 was an important one for our nation's Armed Forces, from Prague Spring to the Tet Offensive and the Vietnam War.
The year was a busy one for Jerry Cobb too. Jerry joined AAFMAA that year — his senior year at West Point — and after he graduated in June, he married his wife, Kathy, just days later. The couple moved to Ft. Sill in Lawton, Oklahoma, where Jerry deployed to Vietnam as part of the Army's 1st Cavalry Division ("First Team").
When he returned, he went on to advanced training and furthered his education. He rose through the ranks and earned even greater success in his military career. After 11 years of Active Duty military service, he transitioned to the Reserves and started a 25-year career with a large government contractor.
When Jerry officially retired in 2005, he and Kathy were living in Southern New Jersey to be near their grandchildren. After 10 years of New Jersey winters, they decided to move to Florida. "We made several trips to Florida to look at various communities where we could enjoy the rest of our lives."
Jerry had become a fan of AAFMAA's webinars and remembered one on mortgages given by Rick Maines, Fayetteville Branch Manager for AAFMAA Mortgage Services LLC (AMS). He connected with Rick in 2019 to ask about VA Home Loan financing and getting a pre-approval.
With their mortgage figured out, the timing seemed right. They planned to put their home on the market, have a final Christmas there, and then move to Florida in 2020.
But, the real estate market had other plans. They put their home up for sale in May 2019 — and it sold in just four days. "That put us in a bit of a bind," says Jerry. They couldn't find any suitable short-term rentals in New Jersey, so they made some calls and found just what they were looking for in an active adult community in Ocala, Florida where they could build the retirement home of their dreams. Their New Jersey home sale closed in early September, and the next day Jerry and Kathy flew south to watch their new home take shape.
Once they decided to build the Ocala home, Rick locked them in with a purchase mortgage loan at 3.25%. "We compared the rate and terms from AMS with credit unions and other lenders, and the AMS deal was clearly the best," says Jerry.
Aside from offering great rates and competitive terms, AMS provided the Cobbs with outstanding customer service. "We appreciate that AMS is staffed by people who have been in the military or deal with the military," Jerry says. "They understand what we're thinking, what we've been through. And they care. Every time I called to ask a question, they had an answer," he says. "They made the whole process very easy."
The Cobbs were able to customize the home under construction and watch its daily progress. They moved into their newly built 2,600-sq-ft home in December 2019 – just in time for Christmas.
"Although moving is never easy, the mortgage was definitely something we didn't have to worry about," Jerry says.
If you're not sure the time is right to purchase a home, please contact us online today or give us a call at (910) 500-6170 to speak Richard Maines and his team. We will be happy to provide you with an honest and fair comparison of your mortgage options, including a wide range of low-rate and low-cost loans designed to meet your needs.
Ensuring our Members obtain the best mortgage possible is our mission. Get your free mortgage assessment today!

Apr. 25, 2018 7:30 p.m.
A former Vernon mayor and MLA has died.
Lyall Hanson died Monday at age 88 following a lengthy illness.
Hanson was mayor of Vernon, starting in 1981, before entering provincial politics in 1986, becoming a Social Credit MLA in the Okanagan-North riding from 1986 to 1991, and then Okanagan-Vernon from 1991-96.
He served under Premier Bill Vander Zalm as Minister of Labour and Consumer Affairs from 1986 to 1989, and Minister of Municipal Affairs from 1989 to 1991.
"Lyall was one of the finest people I had the pleasure of serving with during all of my long political involvement," said Vander Zalm from his Lower Mainland home Wednesday evening.
Current Vernon-Monashee Liberal MLA Eric Foster paid tribute to Hanson in the Legislature Tuesday.
"Lyall was the mayor of Vernon before he was an MLA, a tireless supporter of our community at that time, and certainly, after he retired from provincial politics," said Foster. "To many of us in those days — younger, aspiring politicians — he was a great mentor and a source of a lot of knowledge.
He was named interim leader for the Social Credit party in 1994 but soon after joined the Reform Party.
Anne Clarke served with Hanson on Vernon council and succeeded Hanson as mayor in 1986.
"Lyall was the one who encouraged me to run for mayor," said Clarke. "He was a really good businessman, full of common sense. Whenever we had reports from staff, his approach was very business-like and down to earth.
No details on a funeral service have been announced.

Concentration Camp Survivors Share Their Stories
The Holocaust was the systematic murder of Europe's Jews by the Nazis and their collaborators during the Second World War. The Nazis also enslaved and killed other groups who they perceived as racially, biologically or ideologically inferior or dangerous. Hear seven survivors talk about and reflect on their experiences.
What Was The Holocaust?
The Holocaust was the systematic murder of Europe's Jews by the Nazis and their collaborators during the Second World War. For the first time in history, industrial methods were used for the mass extermination of a whole people. Between 1933 and 1945, Jews were targeted for discrimination, segregation and extermination.

Speculative plans to redevelop Crawley's fire station are being explored by West Sussex County Council.
An initial feasibility study has been carried out into proposals to build a new station on the current site in Ifield Avenue, along with 30 flats and 3,000sqm of commercial space.
The project was put before a meeting of the council's performance and finance select committee, along with ten others being explored as part of the One Public Estate programme.
The programme, which is funded by the government, was launched in 2013 with the aim of transforming local communities and public services.
Since January 2017, West Sussex has been awarded £640k to explore and progress project options across the county.
While the fire station plan has been described as 'speculative at this stage', a more detailed feasibility study has been proposed for early 2019.
Other projects being explored as part of the One Public Estate programme include the regeneration of a number of sites across Crawley town centre.
The sites include the county buildings, Centenary House, the old library, the college campus site and Telford Place.
Initial feasibility studies have been carried out at each site, exploring the possibility of delivering 800 homes, 25,000sqm of commercial/employment space and improved access and infrastructure.

What are the U.S. EPA's federal greenhouse gas regulations?
How are LG&E and KU decreasing emissions?
The U.S. EPA is currently in the process of establishing greenhouse gas regulations that would limit carbon dioxide emissions for new power plants and existing power plants, as part of the Clean Air Act.
The EPA first re-proposed its regulations in September 2013 to limit CO2 emissions from all new natural gas and coal-fired power plants. Closely on its heels, the agency also released the regulation's counterpart in June 2014 to limit CO2 emissions from existing power plants.
On Aug. 3, President Obama unveiled the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's much-anticipated final regulations to limit CO2 emissions from existing power plants. Learn more about the company's response.
LG&E and KU are currently in the midst of an unprecedented number of construction projects to install extensive environmental controls to meet the requirements of other new U.S. EPA rules including the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards, Cross State Air Pollution Rule, and revised National Ambient Air Quality Standards.
The company will have spent more than $3 billion from 2009-2015 to further decrease emissions across the coal-fired fleet.
The company is fully rehabilitating all eight generating units at the Ohio Falls hydroelectric plant that will increase total output by 27 percent. Ohio Falls and Dix Dam hydro plants will have the ability to produce up to 120 megawatts.
The new 640-megawatt natural gas combined-cycle generating unit under construction at Cane Run and the retirement of 13 percent of the company's coal-fired units also will decrease the company's long-term CO2 emission levels.

The Legatum Center for Development fellowship for African entrepreneurs
The Legatum Center for Development and Entrepreneurship at MIT has launched the Foundry Fellowship, a first-of-its-kind leadership program for accomplished entrepreneurs who are considering their role in shaping the future of the African innovation ecosystems in which they work and live.
Fellows will receive instruction from MIT faculty, connect with investors, and expand their network of peer innovators. The Fellowship is open to entrepreneurs working and living in Ethiopia, Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, Rwanda, Senegal, and Uganda.
Building on the MIT ethos of Mens et Manus (Mind and Hand), the Foundry describes itself as a place where "entrepreneurs come together to reflect on their achievements and shape their futures as leaders in business, investing, and governance." The program includes an interactive online curriculum followed by a three-week immersive session that brings the cohort together to explore innovation-driven ecosystems.
The Foundry Fellowship presents an opportunity to bring MIT resources and knowledge to these critical innovation ecosystems and, importantly, also offers MIT an opportunity to learn from successful leaders and their innovative solutions.
Professor Fiona Murray, Faculty Director of the Legatum Center, described this opportunity to expand MIT's innovation network as a moment for the Fellows to reflect on their entrepreneurial journey while also allowing her and her colleagues to learn from their unique experiences.
The Mastercard Foundation is also a partner in the fellowship. The collaboration is expected to deepen the impact of leaders who are solving complex problems, creating jobs, and bringing essential services to millions through innovation-driven business models.
The partners affirm that Africa's entrepreneurs are building businesses that offer lessons in inclusion, sustainability, and value creation that extend far beyond the continent.
The Legatum Center will accept nominations from May 3 – May 20, 2021. A nomination is not required to apply; entrepreneurs are invited to submit an application directly.
All nominees and applicants must submit a completed application by 06:59 AM EAT on June 11th to be considered for the program. Nomination and application information is available at https://bit.ly/2SqsgR6. An initial cohort of 15 Fellows will be selected.

Challenging Fun with Korner'd from Endless Games {A Back to School Review}
Endless Games has become one of my favorite companies for games. They have a wide variety of games for all ages, ranging from 3 to 103. Here is a list of the kinds of games they offer:
Survey Games
and Pop Culture Games
Just last week I shared my review of Crazy Legs, another Back to School Review. This week, I would love to share about the puzzle-type board game, Korner'd.
Korner'd is "A Challenging Game of Pattern, Perception, and Discovery." It is a proud supporter of Autism Speaks and has been able play rated as a product suitable for children with special needs, along with being a Gold Winner in the National Parenting Publications Awards. It is meant for children aged 8 and up, though Tabitha has enjoyed playing with me and she is only 7.
The game comes with the game board, 36 color tiles and the instructions.
The color tiles are easy to remove from the cardboard frame. Each tile has 4 colors in a 2x2 grid. These are to be matched correctly to the intersections on the game board. There is only one intersection that each tile will match with.
You can vary the difficulty of game play by adding more tiles to each round of play. For the easiest level of playing, only 3 tiles per person are used. However, you could use, 4, 5, or 6 tiles per player as well. Of course, you could also divide all the tiles evenly among the players. The winner is the one who correctly places all of his or her cards first.
Here is how we played:
We put the tiles face down in the box and passed the box around, taking one tile at a time until we each had 3.
On the count of three we flipped over our cards and started searching for the correct placement.
Here you can see how the tiles set on the board.
With three tiles the game definitely goes quickly, so in subsequent rounds we used more tiles.
While we did play the game with Amelia, who is 6, she has not wanted to play since that first day. I admit, it is a bit tricky for younger children. Yes, she can play it, but she was upset that she wasn't able to win.
When Tabitha and I play together, we use 10 tiles each. We also enjoy playing alone, using all the tiles. This is a great way to challenge oneself. We time how long it takes and then try to beat our times.
I have been able to complete the board in 19 minutes, 18 seconds.
Tabitha has completed the board in 34 minutes, 46 seconds.
We do not compare our scores to each other, just to ourselves.
Korner'd is a fun game for 1-6 players that helps develop concentration and perception. You really have to pay attention to the color combinations. We have been known to think we had a tile placed correctly, only to find out that two of the colors were switched. While this game has a simple concept, it is a challenge to play. Definitely a fun game I can recommend gathering the family together to play.
Tabitha's thoughts:
"I like that it's a fun matching game with corners and colors. My favorite way to play it is playing together with 10 tiles."
There is one thing that confused me. I don't quite understand why there aren't enough tiles to completely fill the board. I am not officially OCD, but I do have those OCD moments (I'm sure this is common) and it just seems weird to not be able to fill the entire board with tiles. It feels like it is incomplete. That is just me though. It did not change the fact that this is a fun game to play.
Once again Endless Games has produced a winner! You can check out all the products they offer at their website.
Korner'd sells for $15.99.
This challenging game can be yours!
Endless Games has generously offered to include Korner'd in my Back to School/5 Year Blogiversary Celebration.

Felicia August 9, 2014 at 7:50 PM
This looks like such a fun game. We are slowly getting into board type games here and I know the girls would love something like this.I like that it can be played with so many different amounts of people.
Ann B August 9, 2014 at 11:15 PM
This sounds like a fun game that I would enjoy playing with my kids. I like that it makes you think about colours and patterns. Thanks for sharing.

Lauryn R August 13, 2014 at 3:13 PM

Nancy August 13, 2014 at 6:45 PM
They have so many unique games. I also like the game Oddly Obvious.
THis looks like a fun game. It's great for matching patterns.
Cheryl R August 19, 2014 at 2:51 PM
I am certainly impressed with this game! My youngest at age 6 would love it! I think I like it best because it would be difficult to cheat!
Donna George August 20, 2014 at 7:45 PM
It would bother me that you can't fill the board, but I think my older learners would like this.

As a bride-to-be, choosing dresses for your bridesmaids is probably one of the hardest things about planning your wedding. Whether you are planning for one bridesmaid or ten, these women provide a very special supporting presence on your day of days, and you want them to feel comfortable and happy. It might take a bit of work, but finding bridesmaid dresses that everyone loves is possible. Read on for some handy tips.
Bridesmaids are generally chosen from among your close friends and relatives. Only after the bridesmaids have delightedly said: "Yes!" does the spectre of very different sizes, shapes, skin tones, likes and dislikes appear on the horizon. That's when many brides start to realise that finding bridesmaid dresses is not as simple as deciding on a dress that you like, and multiplying it across your wedding party!
It's generally a good idea to choose the colour of the bridesmaid dresses before you start thinking about styles. Take into account the colouring of your bridesmaids, the colours in your floral arrangements and other decorations, and the colour of your wedding gown.
If, happily, all your bridesmaids have the same complexions, you can choose something that is flattering to each of them, and that appeals to you as well. Pastels generally suit the fair skinned, while deeper, richer shades usually look lovely on those with darker complexions.
It's probably much more likely though that your bridesmaids will each be different, and, in this case, there's no rule saying that they have to all wear the same colour.
For example, you might choose two or more harmonising shades that pick up colours in your bouquet. Or, you might go for a graduated shading effect in the same colour.
If you choose graduating shades, the first bridesmaids to head down the aisle can wear darker shades of the same colour, with progressively lighter shades being worn until it is your turn. This caters for a variety of skin tones, and has the pretty effect of funnelling all eyes towards your white dress as you walk down the aisle. Your bridal gown is, after all, the star of the show.
With the colour sorted, it's time to tackle likely variations in the height and size of your bridesmaids.
Your initial thought might be to have matching dresses, and that works well when your bridesmaids are similar in body shape and not too dissimilar in height.
A-line dresses are shaped like a capital 'A' and look good on most body shapes.
Empire-line dresses have high waists above a straight fall of full-length skirt, and generally suit tall women best.
Fitted dresses that outline every curve do not flatter those who are carrying a bit extra, or the extremely slim.
V necklines are a great look on many shapes. They can help to minimise larger busts, and elongate shorter necks.
One solution for photographic (and actual!) harmony is to have the dresses made in a single colour, but use a variety of styles. You might simply specify that dresses have to be a certain length, or have sleeves, and leave the rest up to individual choice. That way each woman gets to wear a dress that really suits her.
What did we do before the internet? It saves so much time and energy in repetitive phone calls, and does away with the need to trail round every single dress outlet in the area in the hope of finding the perfect bridesmaid dresses.
Instead, when you are ready to shop, let Hunter Bride take the strain. Our directory showcases shops, and dressmakers who specialise in creating bridesmaid dresses. You'll soon find that one more item has been successfully checked off your wedding planning list!

Gender Equality, Women's Empowerment & Money – What Formula Works
By Catherine Nyambura*
Gender equality is discussed as part of our lunch time banter, as a crucial component for development at national, regional and global levels. Across the world, no country has achieved gender equality even though various interventions, legislations and actions have been put forward to close the gap in education, economy and politics between men and women, boys and girls.
One of the areas where deliberate efforts to address gender inequality are required is the global economic governance architecture. We have witnessed women and girls take hits, lose livelihoods and become disenfranchised because of a global economy that perpetuates patriarchy, the worst form that continuously puts money in the hands of governments and men to the detriment of women who serve as foot soldiers, carrying out the back-breaking work (both literally and figuratively).
During the Third International Conference on Financing for Development (the outcome documents can be found here), global access of factors of production by countries and individuals alike was put to the table discussing the global resources;who controls them and how this ownership has defined the global economic governance as we know it today.
Even though at the preamble of the outcome document governments committed to invest and advance gender equality and women's empowerment, this commitment was watered down in the rest of the document as the articulation seemed to favour investments in women and girls as smart economics. For governments to honour commitments on investing in women and girls, priorities should also be placed in the financing of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action and the Programme of Action of the ICPD Beyond 2014 which have and continue to progressively advance the rights of women and girls over the last 20 years since their adoption and review conferences. The two frameworks have recently undergone their +20 year reviews in which a broader articulation of women's rights and gender equality is clearer and more progressive, building upon the initial conversations in Cairo and Beijing in 1994 and 1995 respectively.
The contribution of women and girls to the economy goes beyond productivity and growth. Governments must value unpaid care work which, even though recognised as a target in the post 2015 development agenda is not strongly articulated in the final outcome of the Addis Ababa Action Agenda. The under regulated global economy that led to the global financial crisis in 2008 continues to disenfranchise women and girls. Women and girls have continued to act as shock absorbers in times of financial crisis,who as a majority of the informal sector are further taxed to close resource gaps. During the food crisis they directly bore the brunt of high food prices. During the energy crises, they were forced to further trek long distances for firewood. This is in addition to suffering from the high prices of essential commodities.
The concerted efforts by governments to welcome private sector as a primary key player in development poses risks escalating further human rights violations. This, if done through foreign direct investments, is further worsened when women are marginalised from accessing factors of production such as land, capital and technology. This is aside from being disenfranchised when big corporations are allocated land by governments leading to forced evictions, loss of livelihoods and worsened poverty. This is a burden added onto the already existing cultural systemic issues that make access to these factors a highly contentious discussion.
The Addis Action Agenda takes us a few steps back from where we got with the Doha and Monterrey consensus. This is a shame especially given the global call for a transformative post 2015 development agenda. More so is when the world having committed to the post 2015 development agenda where world leaders commit to;- end poverty, eliminate inequalities and tackle climate change. To be realised, these commitments would require an ambitious financing architecture that addresses systemic issues in a fundamental and revolutionary manner — which the Addis Action Agenda unfortunately fails to do.
The progress made on issues such as youth engagement is commendable, as well as an attempt to make steps towards regulating global taxes.
The Addis Action Agenda is out, but the fight and struggle towards social justice is not over.
Aluta continua is all we can say for now.

iFollow Rovers freeview | Matty Blair helps launch EFL's partnership with Mind
FREEVIEW | Matty Blair helps launch EFL's Mind partnership
Rovers player Matty Blair and former Rovers forward Billy Sharp are among those who have praised the EFL's charity partnership with Mind, which runs for the 2018/19 and 2019/20 seasons.
To mark the start of the EFL and Mind's two-year charity partnership, the 2018-19 EFL season will see, for the first time in English football, a new lettering design which incorporates the charity's logo into the player name on the back of every EFL shirt across all 72 clubs in the Sky Bet Championship, Sky Bet League One and Sky Bet League Two.
The squiggle part of Mind's logo will be joined into the first letter of the player name – with the player's name replacing the word Mind – in a unique design to celebrate Mind and the EFL's new On Your Side partnership.
The EFL and Mind hope that, by raising the visibility of mental health problems in football, they can be game changers. They want fans to know that, whether you feel overloaded, overwhelmed or burnt out, Mind and the EFL are On Your Side.

ARIN's Public Policy Mailing List was abuzz last week with debate over the merits of modifying the needs-based justification policy for IPv4 address transfers. The debate was sparked by a proposal to increase the time period organizations can use to justify their need for IPv4 addresses to 60 months (5 years). Currently, organizations seeking to buy addresses must show that they will use them in the next two years. The two year time period was only instituted recently, when ARIN extended the period from only 1 year.
The 5-year proposal has vocal proponents and opponents. The debate is really between those who want to make market-based transfers of IPv4 address as easy as possible, and those who want to make them more difficult. Proponents of the change argue that most companies' planning horizons are longer than 2 years, and thus they may not qualify for receiving address blocks even if they really do have a long-term need for them. The current policy, they argue, will push many organizations to seek IPv4 addresses outside of the ARIN's Section 8.3 Specified Transfer regime, for example by buying them from legacy holders who have no contracts with ARIN. Opponents of the 5-year proposal want to prevent any departure from clearly demonstrable need, and fear that shortening the time frame for technical needs assessment will lead to speculation and hoarding of address resources.
It quickly became obvious that both camps need more data about address transactions to have an informed debate about what the period should be. Indeed, the cloud of obscurity overhanging IPv4 address transfers is almost shocking. To this end, we have suggested that the emerging address market should mimic other markets. In real estate transactions, the sales price, date, and identity of the transacting parties are readily available as public records. In some real estate markets, even more detailed purchase information is available, for instance pertaining to the financing involved. Similarly, stock market transaction data is also very transparent, especially when "insiders" are involved. This kind of information makes these markets more efficient and serves consumer protection purposes as well.
Unfortunately, very little transaction detail is currently available from ARIN – and as we have noted before, most of the other RIRs provide even less information. What is available is an aggregated view of transfers, a list of blocks transferred under 8.3, and the capability to search ARIN's Whowas database to determine the date and identify the parties involved. But the Whowas capability sits behind onerous terms of service unlike, e.g., real estate transactions which anyone can access easily in most localities and share or analyze at will. No further transaction detail exists.
Most importantly, we do not know what type of contractual agreement with ARIN emerges from these transactions. This information has become increasingly important as large blocks of addresses are traded in bankruptcy court under conditions where ARIN's and legacy holders' property rights are imperfectly specified and individually negotiated. Such detail may seem arcane, but its availability could help transacting parties more easily determine the range of conditions under which a transfer could occur.
If you don't think this is a problem, just look at some of the court documents surrounding 8.3 transfers. According to the 8.3 policy, any organization that purchases IPv4 addresses from a legacy holder is supposed to sign a standard Registration Services Agreement (RSA) contract with ARIN. But the first Nortel – Microsoft deal broke that policy. Microsoft was offered a Legacy Registration Services Agreement (LRSA). Moreover, it was not offered the standard LRSA published here, but one that was customized to its situation. No one but ARIN and Microsoft knows what is in that contract.
There is plenty of ambiguity surrounding ARIN's relationship with purchasers of legacy blocks using 8.3. The Nortel I Order notes that Microsoft entered into a LRSA, although it clearly preserved the rights of Microsoft to do what it will with the blocks. The Borders Order similarly notes the "Purchaser's agreement to sign a Legacy Registration Services Agreement (the "LRSA") with ARIN." The subsequent Teknowledge Order does not mention a LRSA, instead stating "nothing in this Order is intended to relieve or exempt the Purchaser from compliance with the policies of the American Registry of Internet Numbers ("ARIN")." More recent Nortel II Orders (involving CSC Holdings, Bell Aliant, and Vodafone) also do not mention a LRSA, but specify that "the Purchaser(s) interest in the Legacy Number Blocks shall be subject to the terms and conditions agreed to by ARIN and the Purchaser, including applicable ARIN policies as published on its website".
The increasingly ambiguous language in these documents suggests a disorganized market, with sellers, buyers and ARIN all trying to find agreeable transaction terms. No one knows exactly what their rights are, institutions for governing the transactions still in flux, no two transactions are comparable. At the very least, regional internet registries should all record and publish the date of the transaction, the names of the transacting parties, and clearly specify what type of contract the purchasing party is governed under. Indeed, it is hard to understand why all LRSA's and RSAs should not be standardized. Both buyers and sellers might also be helped by knowing the price at which IP addresses are trading. As has been shown in other markets, more transparency around transfers would help reduce uncertainty and increase efficiency.
We'd like to echo Dr. Kuebris' stance regarding the need for greater transparency and consistency of IP address transfers. The residential real estate market is an appropriate proxy to which this nascent market should aspire. We'd add that discretion should be used regarding disclosure of the seller's identity to protect any market signaling concerns the seller might have upon considering a transaction.
The Registries globally have been put in a difficult situation, because their mandates inhibit their ability to effect governance measures we'd collectively like to see in place to increase the efficient use of previously allocated IPv4 numbers. To make allowance for their historic role in allocating numbers, the RIRs have adopted policies granting them a fair degree of discretion over transfers in an attempt to prevent what they perceive are the likely harmful effects of an open IPv4 marketplace, legacy and non-legacy transfers alike. In our view, to a degree, this undermines the viability of the Market, with the costs of thwarting speculators/squatters with varying degrees of consistency outweighing the benefits of optimizing the allocation of these resources. From our experience in an advisory capacity, the IPv4 acquirers' motivation arises almost entirely from business continuity concerns, and policy should be accordingly receptive to these quite earnest, legitimate business needs. This will require more progressive and transparent transfer policies and procedures for which we will be working with the Internet Community.


A man found with a bloodied knife just moments after stabbing a Nuneaton dad to death will be sentenced today.
James Lewis Norton inflicted multiple stab wounds of Bradd Darby during a fight on the corner of Barpool Road and Vernons Lane, in Nuneaton, on February 20 last year.
Mr Darby, 30, died after being taken to hospital.
Norton was arrested a short time later after being found in possession of the bloodied knife used in the attack.
The 30-year-old, who is from Nuneaton, was due to stand trial in January having been charged with the murder of Mr Darby.
He instead pleaded guilty to an alternative charge of manslaughter by diminished responsibility at Birmingham Crown Court.
His plea was accepted by the Crown Prosecution Service.
Norton also admitted two offences of wounding and possession of an offensive weapon.
Two further charges - possession of a firearm disguised as another object and escaping lawful custody - will lie on the file.
He will be sentenced today, Friday, March 22, at Birmingham Crown Court.
Detective Chief Inspector Pete Hill said: "This was a shocking incident in broad daylight that left a huge impact on the local community.
"This is another example of the consequences of carrying a knife.
"Norton's decision to carry a knife that day has left a young man dead and a grieving family.
"I only hope this serves as a warning to others."
Two other men will also be sentenced today for their part in the fight that led to Mr Darby's death.
Dale Martin Barnwell, 31, of Attleborough Road, Nuneaton, and Glenn Sean Darby, 52, of Abbotsford Road, Nuneaton - who is Bradd Darby's dad - previously pleaded guilty to violent disorder.
A fourth man - Sam Stretton, 25, of Aberdeen Road, Nuneaton - has also admitted violent disorder but is currently wanted by police for failing to appear at Birmingham Crown Court.
In a statement following his death last year, Mr Darby's family said: "Bradd was a much-loved dad, partner, brother, son and friend.
"He will be especially missed by his dad; they were best friends and inseparable.
"We are broken hearted and will always love him and miss him."

Why Blockchain Is Booming In Liechtenstein, The Sixth Smallest Country In The World
Oliver Smith Forbes Staff
I cover fintech, crypto and the sharing economy.
Liechtenstein's banks are still handling crypto investments on behalf of their clients, and even offering advice on initial coin offerings,
for crypto companies one thing's for sure, the alpine forests of Liechtenstein have never looked so appealing.

It may be smaller than Brooklyn, but Liechtenstein is working on something pretty big.
With a population of 40,000 and only a single hospital, Liechtenstein is smaller than small, but a low tax rate over the years has made it a hub for financial services – part of the reason it's now home to more registered businesses than citizens.
Now nestled between the Swiss Alps and Austria, Liechtenstein's Crown Prince Alois has been sending signals to the cryptocurrency community that his family's principality of Liechtenstein is the place to bring their businesses.
And it's working.
Enter Liechtenstein
In 2013 Yanislav Malahov was closely involved in the creation of Ethereum, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency behind Bitcoin.
Today he's building a new blockchain called Aeternity, which he believes will be more scalable and offer lower costs for smart contracts than anything that's come before.
Where did he decide to base his new venture?
Malahov tells Forbes that Liechtenstein was the obvious choice.

A Royal invite
Malahov had a chance encounter with one of the Princes of Liechtenstein at a conference in 2016 who told him of the principality's warmth to cryptocurrencies.
Fast-forward two years and, after meeting with local regulators and tax authorities, Malahov decided there was only one place to launch his new startup.
"They're not putting any financial incentives in place, but they're making it really easy to incorporate a cryptocurrency business," he says.
You can open a company without a bank account, just by using Bitcoin or Ethereum.
Malahov remembers founding Aeternity with the equivalent of 50,000 Swiss francs in Ethereum.
Plus Liechtenstein's quaint valleys and fairytale castles are enough to attract any entrepreneur.
"It's a beautiful valley in the Alps, today is very cloudy, but usually it's beautiful," says Malahov.
But making it enticing for cryptocurrency and blockchain businesses to set up shop and trade appears to only one part of Liechtenstein's plans.

Bitcoinstein
Liechtenstein is a member of the European Economic Area, but not the European Union.
The advantage being that financial services based there, including those working on cryptocurrencies and blockchain, can skirt some of the most onerous EU regulations while still trading across the continent because of financial 'passporting' rules.
It's part of the reason why Liechtenstein's banks are still handling crypto investments on behalf of their clients, and even offering advice on initial coin offerings, while the rest of Europe's financial sector has shied away from digital currencies.
Crown Prince Alois last month even implied that his royal family could soon use blockchain to manage the day-to-day administration of their monarchy, and he's made mention of diversifying his family's assets into digital tokens.
Alois's overt support is already having an impact on the ground.
Monthly blockchain meetups in the capital of Vaduz now draw hundreds of attendees, from newly-founded crypto startups like Chainium and Vimana – not bad for a country of Liechtenstein's size.
Malahov believes the future of blockchain businesses in Liechtenstein is bright, he's even developing a co-working space which could be the principality's first dedicated entirely to blockchain.
There's still a way to go, talent is obviously a challenge in a country of this size, as is traditional venture funding.
But for crypto companies one thing's for sure, the alpine forests of Liechtenstein have never looked so appealing.

Israel moves to annex volatile Hebron
HEBRON Sep 08, 2017 - 12:00 am GMT+3
by Associated Press Sep 08, 2017 12:00 am
The Israeli military created a new authority to provide municipal services for settlers in Hebron, drawing accusations that Israel is moving closer to annexing parts of the volatile West Bank city.
The military order, signed last week, alters a 20-year-old agreement in Hebron's Old City, where several hundred ultranationalist settlers live in heavily guarded enclaves surrounded by tens of thousands of Palestinians.
While Israel maintained security control over the area under the 1997 agreement, municipal services to Palestinians and settlers were provided by the Palestinians.
The order, signed by Maj. Gen. Roni Numa, head of the military's Central Command, establishes a new "municipal services administration" for the Jewish neighborhood, the army said.
"By force of the order, an administration will be established to represent the residents of the Jewish neighborhood in Hebron and to provide them with municipal services in a variety of fields," it said.
The Palestinians claim all of the West Bank, captured by Israel in the 1967 Mideast war, as part of a future independent state. They say that all settlements are illegal, a position that has wide international backing.
Kamel Hmeid, the city's Palestinian governor, said the military's order favored settlers at the expense of the Palestinian population and was meant to deepen Israeli control.

Utah Jail Officer Pleads No Contest To Sex With Inmates
Jul 25, 2019, 5:55 PM
OGDEN, Utah (AP) — A correctional officer at a Utah jail has been convicted of engaging in sexual contact with inmates.
The Standard-Examiner reports 41-year-old Jeremy Clark Miller pleaded no contest Tuesday to a felony charge of custodial sexual relations.
Miller was a corporal in the corrections division of the Weber County Sheriff's Office. He supervised female inmates at the county's Kiesel Correctional Facility from August to November 2018.
According to court documents, two inmates told investigators that they had sex with Miller. He was arrested in January.
Prosecutors dropped four more counts in exchange for his plea. Prosecutors are not seeking a prison sentence.
The plea agreement allows for Miller's felony conviction to be reduced to a misdemeanor if he completes counseling.
Miller is scheduled to be sentenced in September.

TOTTENHAM'S rejection of Napoli's bid for Etienne Capoue could spark a transfer scramble involving Arsenal and Manchester United for Monaco's Geoffrey Kondogbia.
Napoli are in the market for a defensive midfielder and, having missed out on Lyon's Maxime Gonalons, had hoped they might be able to lure Capoue away from White Hart Lane.
But Spurs have apparently rejected Napoli's take-it-or-leave it offer of £9m for the 25-year-old.
The offer would have seen Tottenham recoup their outlay on the fee they paid to bring Capoue to England from Toulouse in August.
But Tim Sherwood is believed to have demanded that Napoli's Goran Pandev be included in any deal.
And that has seen the Italian club switch their attentions to alternative targets, with Kondogbia near the top of the list.
Kondogbia was heavily courted by both Arsenal and Manchester United in the summer before ultimately making a £16.5m switch from Sevilla to French side Monaco.
However, the 20-year-old has failed to make much of an impression at the Principality so far and reports in France suggest Monaco may be open to letting Kondogbia leave.
Indeed, Napoli have already made contact with Monaco to declare their preliminary interest and ascertain the club's willingness to do business.
And that could see both Arsenal and United rekindle their interest in a player who both were disappointed eluded them in the summer.
Kondogbia, meanwhile, needs more playing time if he is to build on his solitary cap for the French national team in time to secure his place in the country's World Cup squad this summer.


Zebra Jasper is considered a grounding stone. It keeps one centered with the earth during higher spiritual works. It is also known by the name zebra stone.
Zebra jasper is said to be important to the 1st, and 4th Chakras. It helps with depression and anxiety.
Jasper motivates us to move out of apathy into action. It helps us avoid over-thinking and over analyzing and encourages us to just enjoy the experience of living - now. Zebra jasper's striking colors intensify that message. A gemologist puts it this way: "Like the swift, wild horse for which it's named, it shows us how to live. It says: Get out of your head! Get into your body. Let the zest for life flow through you. If you feel like galloping, then gallop!"
