Now it's all up to Scotland to keep this from becoming the Northern Hemisphere Exhibition Show.

I'm not even mad, this match was always going to have one of two outcomes, either we were going to get raped beyond all recognition or we were going to give the Aussies a hell of a run and then bottle it right at the end, and surprise, surprise it was the latter.
As a Scotsman you get used to this shit.

disappointed that it is literally the rugby championship in the Semi's.
But given the fact NZ has dominated the championship for a long time, they will be be a failure if they don't win.
The obvious final is New Zealand vs Australia.

I was literally shaking when Foley stepped up for that final that. I was literally dying when Foley stepped up for that final kick.
Australia made it so hard for themselves. They gifted Scotland 3 ridiculous tries, but credit to the Scots they stuck in and I had a little fear that the absence of Pocock and Folau would take a bit of quality out of our overall play, but still we should have enough to beat the Scots comfortably, but then again this is knockout rugby and Scots are tough and physical and we always find it tough against tough and physical, so the way the match went wasn't much of a surprise at the end.
Just glad we won and got over the line, and hopefully we don't repeat that performance in the next two games.
Along with (or probably even more than) South Africa, we were the least impressive team of the semi-finalists. But I'll take that. Cheika will be all up the asses of the players this week, there's much to improve on and hopefully Pocock will be back fully fit because he is absolutely crucial to the team.

Hardly Scotland's fault the ref bottled it

The ref bottled what exactly?
Didn't use TMO on a key penalty decision at the end of the game. I'm by no means anything more than a casual when it comes to rugby but the reaction I've been reading has been universally against Joubert. For instance:
Bernard Foley slotted the penalty to secure a 35-34 win and booked Australia a semifinal clash with Argentina.
However, replays of the incident look to show that the ball didn't touch Strauss at all and that it came off the arm of Australian reserve halfback Nick Phipps.
Scotland captain Greig Laidlaw said after the match that Joubert should have used the TMO, which wasn't possible in that situation.
If Joubert had gone against the rules and gone to the TMO, the penalty could have been over-ruled and Scotland would have held a two-point lead with less than a minute to play.
It was an act which angered Hastings and former England scrum-half Matt Dawson when they spoke in the immediate moments after the match.
BBC said Hastings reckoned it was 'one of the worst things he has seen on a rugby field'.
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11531322
Keywords there, could have been overruled.
But that's beside the point.
I have been disgusted with Joubert's refereeing in the past year or so, but he was on point today thankfully.
All those reactions and outcries you are hearing about is just a classic case of the soreness that goes along with the underdog not coming out victoriuos at the end.
The decision was spot on, and even the rugby analysts in the studio after the game had a casual chuckle about how the fans booed in the stadium for that decision and the pitchside reporters calling it a "controversial call by referee Joubert"
The decision is explained somewhere more clearly in the law book, I just can't be arsed to go through the internet now and look it up it's 01h20.

World rugby: Australia were benefitted by wrong call
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-union/34576756
by El Gunner on Wed Oct 21, 2015 7:46 am
Well shit, fair enough then.
But in his defense that happened so fast, I mean there were other people who thought it was the right call as well. And how can people be pissed with him for not going to the TMO if he can't go to the TMO for such a call???
Anyway, wrong calls such as these has been made before (it still doesn't change the fact that as we now know it was the wrong call of course, all I'm saying where's the cryout about all those other calls) this has been blown out of proportion because it potentially cost Scotland a place in the semi-final, again I remind, the underdog. And I say "potentially" because who's to say if a scrum was given Australia wouldn't have gone and scored a try or just put over a drop goal to win the match seeing as it wasn't that far out.
And tbf I was just mainly pissed that people were denying Aus' semi credentials again after something similar happened 4 years ago with the Bryce Lawrence - David Pocock OTT cryout.

France and England .
an embarrassment considering the resources and popularity of the sport compared to Argentina ..
by El Gunner on Sat Oct 24, 2015 8:57 am
Big day today! The hype is always has big here in Namibia as it is in SA and NZ when these two teams face off, because 90% of the people here support either of the two teams.
It's gonna be fun for me regardless of how the match goes because I'll just lay back and watch with no worries.
I hate the Springboks but I wouldn't might if they pull it off like I mentioned before.
by Kick on Sat Oct 24, 2015 9:05 am
I am nervous tbh, but if the same AB's play that played against France, we should win.
It'll be a massive game, regardless.
by Kick on Sun Oct 25, 2015 1:27 am
What a game !!
AB's through by 2 points against a very tough SA side.
Is there anyone better in the air than Ben Smith? He seems to catch every high ball
by El Gunner on Sun Oct 25, 2015 7:40 am
Tired of flat-track bullies like Nonu, Savea, SBW taking all the hype, Ben Smith is the All Black's most valuable player!
Tremendously effective and one of the most consistant players I've ever seen.
Dude is priceless, my guilt love for him will never die.
Hopefully Australia will get the win today, so we can face off!
Haha, SBW is only decent for his offloads.
Come at me Fitman321
Ben Smith and Aaron Smith are probably my favourite All Blacks, both are fantastic players and are vital to us.
Tonights game should be great as well.
@Kick wrote: Haha, SBW is only decent for his offloads.
Actually Aaron Smith is the only player more vital to the team than Ben imo, but I hate that *bleep* so much I really don't like ever giving him credit.
SA 18-20 NZ
There's a little matter of a 3rd place playoff on Friday night but who cares
ALL BLACKS vs WALLABIES it is for the final.
They have never met before in the final.
The ALL BLACKS have never won a world cup outside of their country.
While the WALLABIES won one world cup at Twickenham before.
No doubt who the stronger team is. No doubt NZ have seemingly always had the better of Aus, but this is knockout rugby. This is a world cup final! It's sure to be fireworks as the it can't be argue that these are the two best rugby nations in the world for the past year!

Anyone catch the All Blacks Wallabies game last night?
Crazy match, it was the most free scoring game between the two ever.
NZ scored the most points ever against Aus, while Aus scored their second highest total against NZ.
Finished 54 - 34 to the ABs

Short film introducing the Wellcome Trust for Human Genetics
In the first decades of the 21st century, researchers are beginning to understand in detail how our genetic inheritance makes us who we are. At the Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics, our aim is to extend that understanding in order to gain a clearer insight into mechanisms of health and disease. Looking across all three billion letters of the human genetic code, we aim to pinpoint variant spellings and discover how they increase or decrease an individual's risk of falling ill. The WTCHG is a research institute of the Nuffield Department of Medicine at the University of Oxford, funded by the University, the Wellcome Trust and numerous other sponsors. It is based in purpose-built laboratories on the University of Oxford's Biomedical Research Campus in Headington, one of the largest concentrations of biomedical expertise in the world.
With more than 400 active researchers and around 70 employed in administrative and support roles, the Centre is an international leader in genetics, genomics and structural biology. We collaborate with research teams across the world on a number of large-scale studies in these areas. Our researchers expend close to £20m annually in competitively-won grants, and publish around 300 primary papers per year.

In the midst of the frackas of the biennial SIRHA salon hosting the World Pastry Cup and the Bocuse d'Or competition, I managed to slip away one morning to visit the kitchens at Bernachon in the 6eme. I rustled up a group and we met for a little while that morning, really a dream-like oasis nestled in between the two events.
Bernachon is one of the only European chocolatiers that selects and imports raw cocoa beans direct from producers in various countries and roasts each type of bean separately, creating their 62 house chocolate types by mixing the roasted crushed beans in specific ratios.
We toured the artisan chocolate maker's facility with a maitre chocolatier named Pascal, who explained to us step by step how the chocolate is produced from cocoa bean to Palet d'Or, the house specialty.
Milk or dark... What is your poison?
Pascal explained each step along the process in rapid-fire progression beginning at the sacks of beans. I did my best to take in the aromas, the information, the concepts introduced one by one as we moved through the workshop to produce this beautiful product, and progressively we sank deeper and deeper into the world of the chocolate maker. The young stagieres were rolling ganache. A rack full of enormous pans of fresh Bernachon chocolate were stacked in a back room, cooling from that morning's production. We happened upon one treasure after the next, each rich with a story.
A peek into a courtyard full of bicycles, and through to the molding facility where they were preparing special chocolates for Valentine's Day.
Something that really struck me was the fact that the beans are roasted first, then stored in bins according to provenance, each bin containing chocolate that smells completely different from one another. One smelled more green than the next, the other more toasty, some had smoky aromas. I never really thought much in the past about how differing provenance of the bean can make the difference in the complexity and flavors of a chocolate. Silly me. All this time I had been thinking about sitting down and pulling on that ribbon from the chocolates box. This visit to the source got me thinking outside of just my own selfish reception of the chocolates, more than their simple decadence or their comfort factor. Before this visit I didn't really have much more of an index in my mind aside from a very short vocabulary of brands and labels but now that is changing.
At the same time, this whole idea of the terroir didn't seem outlandish either, since this kind of transmission of the qualities of land and place is naturally coming through so many things in our food world. We talk about the acorn fed black hams from Spain, we talk about the grapes grown along the river in the Northern Cotes du Rhone, we talk about the cows and their pasture pushing from volcanic soil that makes a Saint Nectaire. Every product, a history, an expertise, a story, a place. Why not chocolate?
On the one hand, there is the terroir, which clearly makes a huge difference when I see Pascal scoop up a handful of one particular provenance and has us compare the aroma with that of another. Then there is the knowledge that the Bernachon family has developed in their mixing of flavors and treatment during torrefaction of beans from 8 separate countries, crushing, heating, mixing, and creation of the different blends meant for the various uses - the ganaches, the fillings, the coatings, the decorative elements and textures each meant to have its own quality, for 62 different types of chocolate altogether.
While I was there, I counted 10 employees, and my informal survey revealed that apart from a couple of lucky stagieres from foreign countries who get 5 weeks, each of the workers had been at Bernachon for many years, some nearly their whole lives. Those who were on the track to maitre chocolatier had been to school and passed their examinations, and had done internships at Bernachon before making the rounds at the top chocolate makers in France, then coming back to stay. Pascal said that the job satisfaction comes from the fact that they touch and know the product completely - from A to Z. The ability to really have an impact not only on the finish of the chocolates but on the very basics of flavor makes it very much worthwhile.
I've been obsessing with chocolate ever since I made my chocolate-brie dessert a few days ago. This post and these lovely photos could not be more timely.
Outstanding post, Lucy. I brought home some chocolate from Bernachon - the truffles and the chocolate bars are spectacular. My family loved them. I wish that I had bought more!
Thank you for the wonderful tour through a fascinating place. I am a chocolate fiend and this made me want to get on a plane and visit Bernachon!
Envious. Great pictures btw. It feels like peeking behind the scenes with you.
You really all should go and get back in the kitchen the next chance you get. The aromas are very rich and it is so educational.
Your photos are lovely, and your description of the chocolate beans reminds me of coffee and the varied nuances between beans from different regions and preparations. Thank you for sharing a backstage look into the making of some of our favorite treats!
I am facinated with everything you write. I have not been to France or Europe for that matter but when I read your blog, I am magically transported to those far away places and instantly engulfed in your stories and pictures. Thank you for bringing all of Europes best to me.
Thankyou for another beautiful, thoughtful and wonderful post. I loved exploring backstage at Bernachon with you - because after your post I felt as if I had been there too.
You have an extraordinary way with words and images.
Your photographs are wonderful! And such a beautiful post, too!!
I love Bernachon chocolate - what a treat!
I look forward to visiting Lyon and Bernachon in the future. Thank goodness Denise Acabo carries theri chocolates in Paris, or I would still be in the dark about Bernachon.
My favorite is the dark chocolate bar with caramel au beurre sale. I wish I had one right now!!!
Thank you so much! I greatly enjoyed this post.
Your pictures are so beautiful. All that chocolate is making me hungry!
Whenever I go home, I take Bill to see an artidan chocolatier near my parents' house. It is such a real treat! Gorgeous pics!

Igbo's Must "Go Seek Forgiveness" – Rotimi Amaechi Orders Igbos To Back Buhari
Rotimi Amaechi, minister of transportation, has asked the Igbo to support President Muhammadu Buhari's second term bid.
But he says they should first "go for confession, seek forgiveness" and join the All Progressives Congress (APC) where they will have a chance of producing Buhari's successor.
Amaechi said this on Wednesday while delivering a lecture on 'The Igbo in the politics of Nigeria' at the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra.
During the 2015 presidential election, most of the Igbo rooted for ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, who was eventually defeated by Buhari.
Although the president is yet to declare his intention to seek a second term in office, Amaechi has been appointed the coordinator of his re-election campaign.
At the convocation ceremony, he said even though "we are not here for campaign…we must tell ourselves the truth about what Buhari has done".
He said the president has done more projects for the Igbo more than any other administration has done in two years.
"You (Igbo) did not vote for Buhari, true or false? You voted for PDP and what did they do for you? PDP abandoned the Enugu-Onitsha expressway since 1999, but Buhari is working on it, true or false?" he asked.
"Buhari is working on the second Niger Bridge, he is working on the Otuocha-Ibaji-Abuja road, he is working on the Abakaliki-Onueke road, he is working on the Oji-Achi-Naku road in Enugu state, he is also working on Ozalla-Akpugo-Amagunze road. He is working on the Aba-Ikot Ekpene road.
"Under Buhari, all major cities of the south-east are captured in the existing railway project. Name one government that has done up to this within two years. Our problem is that we are just being emotional."
The minister said the Igbo has no hope in the PDP and the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) — which he described as regional parties.
According to him, "Igbo should go for confession, seek forgiveness and move into a national party, and look for way to fight from inside.
"They should vote for Buhari for a second term, and then force him out and look for Igbo president. Let the quarrel with the north, real or imagined, stop now".

Most radiotherapy facilities in the world are located in high-income countries, and at least 36 nations do not have any such equipment to treat cancer. These are some conclusions drawn from data in the revamped Directory of Radiotherapy Centres (DIRAC), launched today on the margins of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) General Conference.
With information from 141 countries, DIRAC is the most comprehensive database on radiotherapy infrastructure worldwide, showing centres where cancer can be treated and drawing attention to locations where patients have limited or no access at all.
The new DIRAC portal has been re-designed to be more user-friendly and to provide integrated data with better comparisons between countries and regions. The IAEA has been collecting data on radiotherapy centres since 1959.
A Lancet Oncology Report in 2015 estimated that 50 percent to 60 percent of all cancer patients will need radiotherapy at some point during their treatment. DIRAC highlights current and future needs in cancer care: thousands of additional radiotherapy machines and substantial staff training are required to cover the current gap in access to treatment in low- and middle- income countries. In addition, more than 300 radiotherapy machines registered in the database are older than 30 years and will need to be replaced.
DIRAC data is derived from IAEA dosimetry audit services operated with the World Health Organization (WHO) and other audit networks, collected from radiotherapy centres, national databases and manufacturers. The database contains data on radiotherapy machines, radiation sources, staff in radiotherapy centres, and on the type and age of equipment.

Vaporesso's tag line for the Vaporesso Armour Pro Kit reads, "Power, meets style". The line is simple and to the point. The Vaporesso Armour Pro Kit is a welcome addition to the Vaporesso family of quality starter kits and delivers on both the promise of power and style. The packaging, as well as the look and feel of this device, give the user a sense that this is not only a mod, but perhaps an accessory.
The Armour Pro Mod is a compact single battery device that accommodates three battery sizes with the use of the included 18650 battery adapter. 21700, 20700 and 18650 batteries can all be used to power this 100Watt mod. The first thing you will notice is the brightly lit OLED screen which also function as the fire button for the device. The fire button/screen is responsive and integrated well into the device. In addition to the wattage up and wattage down buttons, Vaporesso has added a function button that allows you to access and navigate the numerous settings with ease. Simply click the function button three times and you will be directed to a menu where you can navigate through the available options with ease. The upgraded chipset in this device, the OMNI Board 4.0, not only enhances the firing speed of this mod, it allows for complete customization of the device. Settings available are VW-H, VW-N, VW-S, which are power adjustments for wattage settings. These settings allow you to change how quickly and how hard the mod fires without the use of a power curve. Also available are wattage curve settings (CCW), voltage curve settings (CCV), variable voltage mode (VV), temperature control settings, bypass mode and "Super Player Mode". Super Player Mode is a new feature that Vaporesso offers that allows vapers to use this device with RDA's and can read resistances of .03Ω-5.0Ω. If this all seems overwhelming, not to worry. While Vaporesso has crammed this mod with tons of features that allow it to cater to hobbyist, this device is simple enough for any beginner to use.
The Cascade Baby Tank included with this kit is a smaller version of the Cascade Tank offered by Vaporesso. The Cascade Baby is a 5ml tank with a locking, sliding top fill design. Opening the top fill can be tricky at first but Vaporesso has engraved a small arrow on the gold band directly under the top fill cap to show which direction to push. Simply lift the top cap and push in the specified direction to open. The Cascade Baby provides the same great flavor and vapor production that the Cascade Tank is known for. The triple adjustable triangular airflow makes for a smooth, full draw that works well with the 0.18Ω Mesh coil. The Cascade Baby Tank is also compatible with all Vaporesso GT coils.
I have really enjoyed using the Vaporesso Armour Pro kit. In my opinion, there are plenty of compact, powerful devices that have built in batteries, but there is a need for portable mods that use interchangeable batteries and can provide plenty of wattage. This kit is great for vapors who are looking for something that is portable and offers tons of customizable features. I wouldn't recommend this kit to people who use high nicotine strengths or for those who prefer mouth to lung devices.

We have used Forever greens twice now for our Putting green/turf project. The more recent project was over 2200 sft of space. Forever Greens were great!!!! I am a designer and I work with contractors on a daily basis- so I'm pretty picky with the work I contract out.
These guys were very professional, diligent and most importantly responsive! Their prices were competitive and he quality of work was excellent. Check out the pictures of our finished product. Lawn looks so good and the putting green is perfection. The speed and breaks that my husband requested was taken into account and they followed through. If you're looking for a no maintenance yard or a professional putting green these are your guys.

Any law that allows criminals to ride on national security is a bad law, any legal instrument that does not protect national security agencies and ordinary persons on the street is a law that should be jettisoned, and any court pronouncement that would go to no issue with no effect whatsoever if it violates common sense and would encourage the majority of the citizens to believe in jungle justice rather than the social and judicial justice since it would remain a mere pronouncement!
Laws are made for men, not the other way round.
How can one explain the position of Nigerian criminal law that punishes stealing of any property with value above #1,000.00 with 7 years imprisonment while stealing of billions of naira from public treasury is punished with two years imprisonment under the ICPC and EFCC?
Why are they prosecuting the corrupt government officials and political office holders under the ICPC and EFCC rather than the Criminal Code/ Penal Code Act that provides for heavier punishment?
Stealing is simply put, conversion of properties, things capable of being stolen fraudulently with the intention of permanently denying the owner(s) the use of it.
This is because the present sham being undertaken by the present government on its fight against corruption will go nowhere. A very good example is the handling of the Dasuki saga. Interesting Dasuki sued the FG to the Ecowas court "a far more efficient judicial system" and he won. This is not to say that Dasuki isn't corrupt but rather that the agencies charged with fighting corruption are going about it the wrong way and have so far bungled a lot of cases they could have easily won. The good they could have done is been destroyed by their modus operandi.
Why is it so difficult to prosecute corrupt politicians and government officials? My friend, Bayo Olorunmeke, opined the reason is simply a matter of morality among thieves, a criminally minded official still in service will find it very difficult to diligently prosecute an exposed corrupt official believing he would be protected by the system if he is eventually caught! The honour among thieves, chickens ordinarily do not eat chickens' intestines… And the society itself appears to shield looters simply because these looters share same tribe or ethnicity with them. This is a wrong sentiment because looting of the Commonwealth by a select few deprives the society and it's future of necessary social amenities. It's effect a ripple along generations and it's consequence dire.

The fate of the famous U-2 World War II plane, which received the more familiar Po-2 designation in 1944, is truly unique in memory and gratitude to the fallen aircraft designer N. Polikarpov. The names of many Soviet wartime female pilots are associated with this legendary machine.
U-2 without any reservations can be attributed to the number of the most famous aircraft in the history of world aviation.
With the development of aviation, the need for a training aircraft has increased. The creation of such an inexpensive and reliable machine began to be thought about back in the early 1920s.
Using the English model – "Avro-504k", Soviet aircraft designers created the U-1, which perfectly coped with its duties, while the number of students remained small. But with the massive growth in training, the requirements for the training biplane increased: an easy-to-pilot and cheap to manufacture aircraft was needed for initial training.
After the appearance in 1924 of technical requirements for training aircraft N.N. Polikarpov designed the 2UB-3 aircraft. His tests began in March 1927. But soon the requirements changed, the aircraft received the designation P-1 and was considered transitional. Then, a machine gun and a new engine were installed on the machine, and this modification was named P-2. With the advent of domestic engines in July 1926, Polikarpov received an official assignment for the design of a training aircraft.
A year later, the first prototype of the U-2 with the M-11 engine was ready. The aircraft was a single-post biplane, mainly of a wooden structure with linen sheathing. The wings had a relatively thick profile (14%). The chassis had a through-axle and rubber cushioning. June 24, 1927, the first flight of the U-2 took place, piloted by the famous test pilot M.M. Gromov. The M-11 engine, which had not been brought up to the performance, caused a lot of problems, and at first, the design team had to bring not so much an airplane as a whimsical engine. In general, the training biplane received a good mark, but it was heavy and had a low rate of climb: 2000 m was reached in 29 minutes.
It was possible to eliminate the deficiencies discovered during the tests on the second machine. The wing profile has become thinner, the wingtips and feathers made elliptical, and the rudder unusually large. On January 7, 1928, the modernized U-2 made its first flight. By the end of 1928 the tests of the experimental U-2 series were completed, after which its serial production at factory No. 23 of Leningrad was started.
During production, the aircraft and its power plants were continuously improved. For example, after 1935, a more powerful M-11D engine with a capacity of 115 hp began to be installed on the U-2. A large number of modifications were created on the basis of U-2. In addition to training, aircraft were built for pollination of crops (AP version – "aerofoil"), combat training (AF – "armed aircraft"), a three-seat administrative joint venture ("special use aircraft"), and sanitary options S-1 were produced. S-2, Po-2C. During the war, the U-2 was used as light night bombers (LNB), in the post-war years, the Po-2 Limousine was built with a closed cabin for transporting people and goods.
The serial production of Po-2 aircraft continued until 1953 at several plants. In addition, the successful biplane was issued under license in Poland. In total, about 40,000 aircraft were produced, which puts it in the category of the most massive aircraft in the world.
The arrival of aircraft in the U-2 (Po-2) of the USSR Air Force began in 1930. They received their first baptism of fire in battles on Lake Hasan in 1938 – several ambulance aircraft of the S-1 sanitary modification was used to evacuate the wounded. During the Great Patriotic War, this aircraft became truly legendary. By the start of the war, there were 3,500 U-2 units in army units. In the role of a light night bomber, they played a decisive role at the front. The Luftwaffe command, nicknamed our plane "Russ-plywood", even issued an order that for each downed plane Po-2 pilots were presented for awards. The range of application of this thunderstorm of the German army at the front was extremely wide. For example, throughout the entire Great Patriotic War, the U-2 remained the main connected aircraft, secretly delivering ammunition, food, and medicine to partisans.
Po-2 aircraft participated in yet another war – in Korea in 1950-1953. The "nightlights" in North Korea continued their work until the last day of the war. They caused a lot of trouble to the Americans, causing them sensitive losses while losing only 9 of their cars.

RAIPUR: The outlawed CPI (Maoist) in the forested Dholkal mountain in restive Dantewada district, south Chhattisgarh dislodged a 1,000-year-old 4-feet long Ganesha idol weighing over 500 kg and pushed it from a height of about 12,000 feet into the deep gorge, said police.
The granite idol was broken into eight pieces which were collected by the Dantewada district authorities who visited the area, which happens to be the Maoist hotbed.
The "shocking" incident of the missing Ganesh idol located on the highest point of the densely forested Dholkal mountain came to light when some youth ventured into the rough route on January 26 to enjoy their holiday excursion. They took pictures of the site with the missing idol and uploaded it on social media following which the state government rushed officials to the spot.
The authorities from the department of culture and archeology along with the Dantewada collector and superintendent of police (SP) reached the spot, collected the broken pieces of the idol and began an investigation.
The police blamed the Maoists for "deliberately planned to let (sic)" the structure of Ganesha idol fall from the mountaintop in an "attempt to destroy" it.
"After visiting the spot we are absolutely sure, such misdeed (sic) is the handiwork of the left-wing extremists. The rebels were seemingly worried owing to the tourist visitors in increasingly number (sic) are visiting the picturesque spot in the (sic) recent years. The region also happens to be their stronghold", Dantewada superintendent of police Kamal Lochan Kashyap told Express.
However, noted archeologist Arun Sharma suggested not jumping to conclusions of sabotage. "Let the investigation be completed. There could possibly be another reason for the 11th century-old idol falling (sic) from such a height", Sharma said. It is believed that the Ganesha idol was made during the period of the Nagvanshi dynasty in the 10th century.

Maryland law encourages public senior higher education institutions to promote economic development in the State and to increase their arrangements with the private sector, including collaborative research and development, commercial application of institution-owned intellectual property, and provisions of technical assistance. To facilitate these purposes, under the Maryland Public Ethics Law, the Public-Private Partnership Act (Institutions of Higher Education) allows for the exemption of university personnel for some of the law's conflict of interest (COI) provisions.
In 2017, to further the economic and social impact of the university, and to bring Morgan in step with other Maryland research universities, the Morgan State University Board of Regents approved a new Conflict of Interest Policy in Research and Development. Concurrently, we established university Conflict of Interest Procedures, and both the Policy and Procedures have been approved by the State Ethics Commission.
A nine-member Morgan Conflict of Interest Committee (COIC) is comprised of six faculty members from across the campus, a representative from the Office of Academic Affairs, a representative from the Office of Technology Transfer, and the Vice President for Research and Economic Development, who serves as chair. The work of the COIC is to review faculty Conflict of Interest exemption requests for research and economic development activities, including those associated with faculty start-up companies, and make recommendations for university exemptions under Morgan's COI Policy and Procedures.

Every quarter or so our PR agency brings on board a new account coordinator, an entry level position that assists teams with important tasks like helping with daily news searches, social media content for our clients and generally learning the ropes of public relations in a hands-on way. During their first week or so I'm asked to sit down with these fresh-faced folks for about an hour with the daunting task of defining "effective media relations." But, what does that really mean?
One of my goals for our new hires is to take the emphasis off measuring success based on how many emails they can fire off in a given day and start to think about building relationships. In an ideal world, by the end of their tenure with Trevelino/Keller they could name at least one or two reporters that they'd feel comfortable contacting even if they didn't have something to pitch. I challenge them to be a resource to reporters whether it's for a client or to help look outside our agency's walls to find sources and provide value.
This approach puts the emphasis back on the "relationship" part of media relations. However the basic blocking and tackling that is involved with identifying the right targets means you need to keep up with the often frenetic pace at which reporters move from beat to beat, outlet to outlet. Yesterday's intern becomes tomorrow's senior editor.
Luckily we've come a long way from old school directories to a world of robust tools that can mine real-time data and information and make it palatable for communications professionals.
My favorite tool for the past year or so is Muck Rack. As I explain to our new hires, this can't entirely replace traditional databases but it offers timely and relevant information on reporters. It does this by mining in real time what topics reporters are discussing on Twitter and uses their online bios to help you better target the appropriate writers and editors. By simply knowing what's top of mind for these individuals you can create the most relevant pitch possible. It's also invaluable for simply getting the lay of the land for a client in a new space or tracking competitors.
So now you've found them, how do you keep track of who is going where? Every day we receive multiple emails tracking major media moves from MediaBistro, Bull Dog Reporter, Talking Biz News, etc. It's enough to make your head spin. My personal approach is similar to basic networking: LinkedIn can be an invaluable resource to create introductions, stay connected when your contacts take on a new role or position, and it can also help identify additional contacts within an organization or publication. Once we are connected, I make a point to reach out to a writer with a "no-pitch-pitch" every once in a while. I ask them what they're working on, how can I help? It goes a long way in building rapport and allowing for a two-way dialogue.
At the end of the day it can often feel like too many media, not enough time. Building mutually beneficial relationships is difficult in a world where writers, bloggers, reporters and editors play a constantly rotating game of musical chairs but staying on top of these tools make the game a little bit easier.
Lauren is a two-time boomerang employee of Trevelino Keller where she currently serves as a senior media relations specialist. When she's not pitching stories she's playing taxi driver for three awesome kids or seeking ethnic eats with her husband.

How Can You Pay for Home Improvements?
Remodeling, renovation and decorating projects are all ways to put your own distinctive stamp on your home so it reflects your own personal tastes and lifestyle. In many cases, it can add to the re-sell value of the property too. Unfortunately, many of us don't have the money to pay for everything upfront. One solution, of course, is to save and make gradual changes to the property – perhaps tackling improvements in the order of their urgency or by doing the work systematically room by room. If you're impatient to get started, however, an alternative might be to borrow money, but what are your options?
For smaller projects, the answer might be to borrow money online. Cashfloat UK offer fast and streamlined loans which can be enough to help finance a redecoration project. Another way to pay for the brightening up of a room is to use your credit card. This can be especially cost-effective if you have an introductory deal on its interest rate, but only if the outstanding balance is paid off in full during the introductory period. The extra advantage is that amounts of over £100 are protected by Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act.
Neither of these possibilities makes good financial sense if you are intending to do major restructuring or are undertaking larger projects. In this case, you could take out a personal loan. Depending on their size, their term is usually 1-7 years which allows you to pay for the home improvements gradually over a longer period. Most mainstream lenders are prepared to offer sums for home improvements varying from £5,000-£50,000. Secured personal loans (usually using your property as collateral) have lower interest rates, but the property could be at risk if you default on the loan repayments.
Apart from these loans, you could also borrow money from your mortgage provider by refinancing your mortgage. This is only feasible if you have built up some equity in the property. A further advance (as it's known) is treated as a new credit application so you'll have to go through the whole procedure again – from arrangement fees to a credit check – even though you may have been a customer for years.
Instead of refinancing your mortgage from the same lender, the ideal solution might be to shop around for a new mortgage from a different provider. If you've built up equity in the property, this can also be a way to get a much cheaper deal on your mortgage agreement as well as to release some cash to pay for your home improvements.
Before you make arrangements to borrow any money, you should weigh up all your options extremely carefully. Drawing up a list of projected costs is also recommended. In this way, you'll be able to estimate accurately how much you need to borrow. Borrowing too much will cost you more in interest while if you apply for an insufficient loan, you risk not being able to finish the project.


With trumpets blaring I'm proud to announce the brand-new track "Coal Dust" from Brooklyn's own freak-folk siren Alex Drewchin!
Produced by myself at Williamsburg's Shabby Road Studio, the song features the superb bowing of cellist Emily Hope Price and Carman Staff's hauntingly-sweet accordion. A special thank you to Jesse Lauter for his nuanced mastering expertise.

Europe on Screen 2020 wraps up a successful online edition
Jakarta, 30/11/2020 - 11:41, UNIQUE ID: 201130_9
The 20th European Union (EU) Film Festival "Europe on Screen 2020" ended its 15-day online movie screenings and fringe events on 30 November 2020.
The 20th European Union (EU) Film Festival "Europe on Screen 2020" ended its 15-day online movie screenings and fringe events on 30 November 2020. A total of 40 European films and a compilation of 3 Indonesian short films, as well as 20 sessions of film talks with international and local filmmakers, have been streamed online and watched by Indonesian audiences across the country.
"This year, Europe on Screen presented 40 films from 25 European countries. We have shown the Indonesian public the diversity of our continent and the creativity of the audio-visual sector. The festival captured Europe's uniqueness through lively stories with messages that transcend time and borders," said H.E. Vincent Piket, EU Ambassador to Indonesia. "We also built links between top personalities from the European film industry and film students in Indonesia. I hope that the sharing of experience and knowledge will help these students along their creative paths. Finally, I am happy to announce that Europe on Screen will be back next year," he added.
Although many miss the cinema-going culture, the Europe on Screen 2020 online edition has received positive reactions from the public. "The audience's warm response was beyond our expectation, especially as tickets to watch many of the films were immediately sold out in the first week," said Meninaputri Wismurti, Europe on Screen 2020 Festival Co-Director. "Various non-screening events also received good engagements from our audiences, creating a hope for current film industry impacted by the pandemic," added Nauval Yazid, Europe on Screen 2020 Festival Co-Directors.
How About Adolf? – a German film, produced in 2018, nominated as Best Feature Film at the 2018 Cologne Film Festival and directed by Sönke Wortmann – was chosen as the Europe on Screen 2020 closing film. Filled with humour and critical dialogues, this film tells a story about a couple who are planning to name their unborn son Adolf. The film will be streamed until 5 December 2020.
"The German Embassy is proud to present you this year's closing film, How About Adolf?, as one of Germany's box offices in 2019. It will be a great fit to close the festivities this year and it will definitely make you laugh!" said H.E. Peter Schoof, German Ambassador to Indonesia, at the closing ceremony.
Europe on Screen is also proud to once again organise the Short Film Pitching Project (SFPP). From a total of 170 entries, 9 finalists were shortlisted and had pitched their ideas virtually to a 3-member jury panel during the festival.
