Chapter 7 only applies to a non-directive friendly society other than:
(1) a partnership pension society; and
(2) a flat rate benefits business friendly society.
This Part applies to an actuary appointed under 2 or 7 or appointed under or as a result of a statutory provision other than in FSMA.
In this Part, the following definitions shall apply:
actuarial function
means the function of acting in the capacity of an actuary appointed by a firm under 2.1(1) to perform the duties set out in 5.

With-Profits Actuary function
for a large non-directive insurer has the meaning given in Large Non-Solvency II Firms - Senior Management Functions 8.2 and for a small non-directive insurer has the meaning given in Non-solvency II Firms – Senior Management Functions 5.1.
Appointment of Actuaries
A firm must appoint one or more actuaries to perform and be responsible for:
(1) the actuarial function in respect of all classes of its long-term insurance business; and
(2) the With-Profits Actuary function in respect of all classes of its with-profits insurance business (if any).
(1) when it becomes aware that a vacancy of an actuary required under 2.1 will arise or has arisen:
(2) appoint an actuary to fill any vacancy of an actuary required under 2.1;
(3) ensure that the replacement actuary can take up the vacant post at the time the vacancy arises or as soon as reasonably practicable after that; and
(4) when a new actuary is appointed:
(b) advise the PRA of the name and business address of the actuary appointed and the date from which the appointment has effect,
Where a firm fails to appoint an actuary under 2.1 within 28 days of a vacancy arising the PRA may appoint an actuary to perform either of the functions in 2.1(1) or (2) for that firm on the following terms:

APIR has collected a full series of certificate-related KnowledgeBase (KB) documents into the Certificate KB Topic Library. Please refer to this library for an overview of certificate program guidelines and policy, frequently asked questions, and information on certificate declaring, tracking, and completion.
A certificate program is a designated set of for-credit (or in some cases, noncredit) courses focused upon a specific topic or theme. There are currently more than 100 certificates offered at UW–Madison. (Refer to the Office of the Registrar's official certificate list.) Certificates give students the opportunity to pursue a subject of interest in a formalized way and to have completion of the course of study recognized by the awarding of the certificate. Certificates also add opportunities for flexibility not available in majors and degrees. Upon awarding, the for-credit certificate is documented on the student's UW–Madison transcript and becomes part of the official student record.
There are four types or categories of certificates: undergraduate certificates, graduate and professional certificates, capstone certificates, and non-credit certificates. Refer to the Certificates – Guidelines and Policy KB document for details on each category.
Certificate Guidelines, Proposals, and Approvals
The University Academic Planning Council (UAPC) has established formal guidelines governing certificate programs. These guidelines are detailed in the Guidelines for For-Credit Certificate Programs and Guidelines for Noncredit Certificate Programs documents. These documents contained specific information for each certificate type (e.g., undergraduate, capstone, etc.), including program requirements, the approval process, etc.
The certificate proposal and approval process mirrors that for majors and degrees, in that program faculty bring forward the proposal (most often at the department level) via the Lumen Programs Proposal System, and the proposal is then routed through the appropriate school/college, the Graduate Faculty Executive Committee (for graduate/professional and capstone certificates), and finally UAPC. Certificate programs have become more prominent in the university's program array (refer to the trends in certificate awards data visualization) and require devoted resources from the department, school, and/or college. Faculty who propose certificates should plan for resources that support instruction, student services, compliance with state and federal regulation, and other demands. Faculty should also understand how the certificate offering is related to other degree and major offerings, and for undergraduate certificates, certificates should be designed so as not to extend time to degree.
Faculty/programs interested in proposing a new certificate program should contact Karen Mittelstadt in Academic Planning and Institutional Research in the early stages of planning for support in preparing the proposal. Karen can also support programs seeking to change the academic or administrative home of an existing certificate, rename a certificate, suspend or reinstate admission to a certificate program, change the mode of delivery (e.g., from face-to-face to distance), change certificate program learning outcomes, and/or discontinue a certificate program.
Sunset Provisions
Certificate programs may be discontinued as a decision of the program faculty for a number of reasons, as detailed in the university's Guidelines for Suspending or Discontinuing Certificate Programs.
Compliance with Federal Regulations
In some cases, certificate programs may be subject to federal U.S. Department of Education regulations that differ from regulations associated with majors and degrees. For example, certificate programs available to University Special students designed to prepare students for specific occupations must comply with gainful employment regulations promulgated by the U.S. Department of Education.
The following resources are available to provide more information and context regarding certificate programs:

ELK Stack is comprised of 3 core services:

  * A Elasticsearch database backend
  * A Logstash log collector
  * A Kibana front end

We have created separate dockerfiles for each of these services, making it
easier to build and deploy the services independently.

#### Elasticsearch

To build the Elasticsearch container:

```
$ cd elasticsearch; make build && make run
```

#### Logstash

To build the Logstash container:

```
$ cd logstash; make build && make run
```

#### Kibana

To build the Kibana container:

```
$ cd kibana; make build && make run
```

### Forwarding logs to Logstash

Now that we have elk stack setup we need to start sending it some log files to process. We've provided a logstash-forwarder container that can be deployed on any host that has log files which you would like to have processed.

#### Logstash-forwarder

The logstash-forwarder container is configured to mount the /var/log/ directory of the host machine, which means all files in /var/log are visible to the container. Modify the "files" section conf/config.json to include the files you want logstash-forwarder to handle.

You can modify the mount options in the Makefile if you need to access files that live in a directory other than /var/log/.

To build the Loststash-forwarder container

```
$ cd logstash-forwarder; make build && make run
```

Many are familiar with the term 'solvent test' as a means of characterizing vessel heat transfer and sometimes also gas-liquid mass transfer. Another type of characterization test addresses the turbulent energy distribution in a vessel and uses experiments with Bourne reactions (mixing-sensitive) together with a mathematical model.
These techniques enable a quantitative estimate of the local power per unit mass (or volume) at a specific feed location. That is useful when scaling processes that are mixing-sensitive, such as some fast / dosing-controlled reactions and some antisolvent crystallizations.
Figure 1: Example plot of XQ versus epsilon (W/kg) under micromixing-controlled conditions.
The value of experiments to measure XQ depends on running the chemistry under mixing-sensitive conditions. If you are planning experiments like these, you should first use a model with estimated epsilon to identify both chemical (concentrations) and mixing conditions (e.g. rpm) that will lead to sensitivity in your case. Our utilities provide good estimates of the parameters you need. Then when you have your measured XQ results, you can back-calculate epsilon.
DynoChem is the only software that contains these readymade tools for characterizing your equipment and handling micromixing and mesomixing limited systems during process development and scale-up. Sign up to find out more.

Besides concept illustrations, LuVisi has become an expert in Character & Costume Design, Matte Paintings, Storyboards, Poster & Packaging Design and generally welcomes new challenges within his field.
His current pet-project , entitled "L.M.S.", is an illustration book of a Bounty Hunter and the various extraordinary characters in his path. LuVisi's visual approach to this book is once again very unique and, while staying true to the overall seriousness in tone, LuVisi has again found an organic way to insert his omni-present sense of humor into both the presentation, as well as the art itself.


Social anxiety disorder, also known as social phobia, is a mental health disorder that is characterized by an irrational fear of social situations. Simple activities such as eating in front of others, answering questions in class, or walking down a school hallway can evoke panic in the person who has this disorder. Facing scrutiny from one's peers becomes an all-encompassing fear, and those who suffer from social phobia try to avoid public humiliation or situations where they could potentially be embarrassed in front of others. Avoidance of social activities can also exacerbate other mental illnesses that may have already been present, such as depression. Our culture has been slow to recognize social anxiety disorder as a real illness, and has traditionally viewed the condition as mere shyness. This gradual development is highlighted by Deborah Beidel and Samuel Turner in the text Shy Children, Phobic Adults, where they mention how social anxiety disorder has only been recognized as a diagnosable disorder over the past few decades. As a result, people who have the disorder are oblivious to their clinical syndrome and do not seek help. As someone who struggled with social anxiety as a youth, I want to educate others and provide insight into the life of someone suffering from the condition. My creative project is a short animated film about a teenage boy named Gill, who suffers from intense social anxiety. A terrible incident happens to young Gill that manifests his worst fears and throughout the film, he tries to avoid and run from situations that will evoke similar feelings. I settled on the film name, Gill, because I wanted to play with the idiom, "a fish out of water". Gill feels out of place in social situations, and one of the symptoms of anxiety attacks is having trouble breathing. A fish on land struggles to breath, with its gills struggling for oxygen. The goal of this film is to inspire audiences and bring awareness to the issue of social phobia.


As a first-time blogger here on ALDLAND, with hopes of semi-regular future contributions and an eye towards establishing a reputation for taking on the most popular burning questions of the day, my topic essentially selected itself. Obviously, I'm compelled to address the issue that is certainly on the minds even of casual fans – the media portrayal of Georgia Tech's struggles with third and long. I know, I know, you are probably thinking that is a rather ambitious topic, but hear me out.
Odds are, most of you have not watched many, or any, Georgia Tech games. And those of you who have probably haven't noticed these comments or paid them much attention. The few of you who have noticed presumably nodded in relatively indifferent agreement, quickly moving on and largely forgetting the idea. Meaning, it is just us die hard Georgia Tech fans who care enough to object, and believe me, the twelve of us can get pretty irked. Downright inflamed at times.
If you've already stopped reading, I urge you to continue. I know, thus far, I have given you no reason to do so, but there is a chance I will successfully make a worthwhile point eventually. Anyway, without further ado, here are the numbers from ACC teams since Paul Johnson arrived at Georgia Tech in 2008. These are compiled from cfbstats.com, and, for a fair and accurate if barely scientific comparison, only examine the 11 teams that have been in the ACC during this entire period.
Bears like honey. Bees like honey. Tomorrow afternoon, Mercer and Georgia Tech will face off for the sixteenth time in the history of their in-state rivalry, and it already looks like the Baptists have beat the nerds at their own game. According to a just-released computer model, Mercer will prevail over Tech at Bobby Dodd Stadium tomorrow by a 22-17 margin. A surprising result, most probably would agree, but a Mercer victory would not be unprecedented. In 1892, Georgia Tech opened its inaugural football season with a road loss to the Bears in Macon. The Yellowjackets won thirteen of the teams' next fourteen matchups (the 1896 game in Atlanta ended in a tie), but they haven't played each other since 1938 (Mercer's football program was dormant between 1942 and 2012), so that 1892 game likely will loom large in the minds of both schools' players.
Two other game notes: Bears coach Bobby Lamb has his own history of success against the Jackets, extending back to his days as a quarterback at Furman, and Tech will be without two of its running backs, who are suspended for team-rules violations.
ALDLAND will be live at this game, which kicks off at 3:00 tomorrow on the ACC Network.
Football has kind of weird scores. Even though it is common to most readers of this blog, a sport where scoring 3 or 7 is common while 2 is rare is kind of weird in the scheme of sports (most other sports are strictly one point at a time other than basketball where 1, 2, 3 are each fairly common).
I was always interested as a kid in figuring out what possible scores can happen in a football game. Certainly multiples of seven are common: 7, 14, 21, 28, etc. along with one or two field goals thrown in for good measure. I wanted to know exactly which scores are possible and which are absolutely forbidden.
This leaves us with any score accessible except for one. This was always a bit disappointing because that is infinitely many possible inaccessible scores. But so it goes.
Last week was one of the best football weeks in recent memory, and although our Tuesday Afternoon Inside Linebacker weekly feature has fallen by the wayside due to worldly obligations, this week and the week ahead deserve note.
The Lions started things off on Thanksgiving with a wonderful win over Green Bay. It was Detroit's first win on Turkey Day in nine years, and it was the first time Matt Stafford beat the Pack. The Lions also avenged the career game Matt Flynn had the only previous time he quarterbacked Green Bay against Detroit.
Brendan and I were in the Big House for Michigan's surprise one-point loss to Ohio State, and I made it out of Ann Arbor in time to see Georgia come back to defeat Georgia Tech in overtime, note Vandy's comeback win over Wake Forest, and watch maybe the greatest one second of college football in Auburn's regulation toppling of Alabama in the Iron Bowl.
Rose Bowl: Barring a very bad loss to Ohio State in the Big Ten championship game Saturday night, Michigan State seems set to ring in the new year in Pasadena. Here are the details on that situation.
Bowl projections keep waffling Vandy between the Music City and Liberty Bowls. Despite having a national championship in women's bowling, they can't seem to roll outside the Volunteer State. The former Independence Bowl in Shreveport might be a good alternative.
There are a lot of people making a lot of decisions out there, but this is a big one. We're going to tell a group of young men, who just went 12-1 in a most difficult schedule against six ranked opponents, that they don't have a chance to play for a national championship? I'm going to need help with that one.
That was back in 2006, though, and in 2013, Meyer finds himself singing a decidedly different tune as the head coach of Ohio State. 2006 Urban Meyer got his way, something 2013 Urban Meyer ought to keep in mind this week.
Excepting the above-depicted forty gambler-point swing victory by Middle Tennessee State University, the Volunteer State's biggest school, over Georgia Tech, there were a lot of close college football games on Saturday. Michigan State lost by one to Ohio State. Although the internet's had a lot to say about that game in the way of eye-gouging, taunting, and the pregame game tape exchange, there's not much to say about the game itself beyond the observation that OSU's Braxton Miller is pretty good. Even though it was high scoring, West Virginia only beat Baylor by a touchdown in Morgantown. Of course, it was really high scoring. Like 70-63. Big Ten basketball territory. Other top-25 games, though not quite as close, probably were closer than the winning team would've preferred. Alabama beat Ole Miss 33-14 in a game that was in reach for the underdogs (underbears?) in the fourth quarter. Washington State put up 26 against Oregon, which is 26 more than Arizona could do. Texas and Oklahoma State went to the wire, and UGA-UT was a one-score game as well. Clemson got back to its winning ways with a 45-31 win over woeful Boston College.
The pros sang a different tune on Sunday, though, at least in part, when Denver found its legs against Oakland (38-6), New England posted 52 on Buffalo, and San Francisco bounced back with a 34-0 shutout of the dead-in-the-water-not-walking-on-water J-e-t-s. There were some close games in the NFL too, as the Cardinals won by three in overtime to inexplicably stay undefeated, and the Saints lost by one to stay defeated.
On the topic of defeats, the U.S. team absolutely melted down on the last day of the Ryder Cup, surrendering a supposedly insurmountable lead. We now return to our regular golf coverage, which, absent Jungle Bird, is nonexistent.
As full as it will be tomorrow.


When you have LASIK, you and your doctor may decide to leave one eye slightly nearsighted. This is called monovision and may allow you to maintain your ability to read without glasses after you begin to experience presbyopia (the need for reading glasses as you get older). Your other eye will be fully treated for distance vision.
Who Is a Candidate for Monovision LASIK?
If Monovision LASIK is used to achieve better near vision, you have to give up some sharpness in your distance vision. Monovision is very helpful for intermediate vision tasks such as working on a computer, scanning a menu or article, but not for reading fine print up close.
The goal of monovision is to reduce your dependency on glasses, however, they may still be required for certain activities, such as reading up close and driving at night.
During your vision correction consultation, you and your eye doctor will decide which choice is best for you.

Billing Boats (B508) USS Constitution Frigate - Model Boat & Fittings
Billing Boats (B508) USS Constitution Frigate - Model Boat & Fittings is a scale model warship. USS Constitution is a wooden-hulled, three-masted heavy frigate of the United States Navy. Named by President George Washington after the Constitution of the United States of America, she is the world's oldest floating commissioned naval vessel.
Launched in 1797, Constitution was one of six original frigates authorized for construction by the Naval Act of 1794. Joshua Humphreys designed the frigates to be the young Navy's capital ships, and so Constitution and her sisters were larger and more heavily armed and built than standard frigates of the period. Built in Boston, Massachusetts at Edmund Hartt's shipyard, her first duties with the newly formed United States Navy were to provide protection for American merchant shipping during the Quasi-War with France and to defeat the Barbary pirates in the First Barbary War.
Beam 270 mm.

Do your systems require compliance with FIPS on security then Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provides the flexibility to meet a key area of compliance for your Windows Server workloads: FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) compliance. The ability to create a FIPS-compliant server is a critical milestone in moving to the cloud.
This post discusses how to achieve a FIPS-compliant Windows Server, describing the core steps for Windows Server 2016 server and referring to the necessary resources for Windows Server 2008 R2 and 2012. In particular, this post focuses on how to bring this functionality to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and some things to consider while attempting to meet the FIPS 140 standard. The reference section provides links to Microsoft sites that define and document FIPS compliance for building Windows Servers that are compliant.
The United States and Canadian governments have created specific requirements for ensuring security with in their environments, these requirements have led to the FIPS standard. FIPS is a standard for government computer security. The standard was initially published in May 2001 and then updated in December 2002 by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Communications Security Establishment of Canada. The standard identifies levels of security and cryptographic module validation. This standard applies to any security system that is used within the US Federal government. The current standard is FIPS 140-2 for all government systems.
For more information, see FIPS 140-2.
For Windows Server 2008 and later, ensure that your disk encryption is AES-256. For .Net, ensure that you are using the correct CNG Validated Cryptographic Modules.
For more information, see FIPS 140 Validation.
Now that you have an idea of what FIPS is, you need to know how to make your Windows Server environment FIPS compliant. Microsoft has done most of the work for the compliant DLLs and encryption integration. Follow the processes outlined in How to Use FIPS Compliant Algorithms to produce a FIPS-compliant Windows Server.

Éclat de joie
Mariette Rousseau-Vermette
A great pioneer of 20th-century textile art, Mariette Rouseau-Vermette created tapestries that played with volume, relief, and colour. In her projects, she often integrated surprising and unconventional materials for the time period, like fibre optics. Her work can be seen in Canada, the United States, Europe, and Japan where you'll find her tapestries in many prestigious public and private collections.
At the end of the 1960s, Donald Simons met Mariette Rousseau-Vermette and was captivated by her work in textile art. He purchased a tapestry made entirely of hand-spun wool, entitled Éclat de joie. This tapestry underwent skilled restoration work by the Centre de conservation du Québec. The Simons family is proud to present this piece to the public and in so doing, chronicle a key and effervescent period of the arts in Quebec.


ESP8266 with AT commands software from Espressif is now more stable than every, so I'm thinking to make a "strong" AT commands parser library for STM32 series of microcontrollers. If there well be an interest, I can do a generic library (like FATFS) to make usable on others microcontrollers too.
Supported AT command SDK version would be at least 1.5.0 with dedicated generated .bin files for it.

When shooting dramatic landscapes, there is no filter more useful than a graduated ND. The idea here is to get the shot right "in the camera" without relying on post production tools. As terrific as these filters are, it's easy to be confused by exactly how they work. When I was first starting out many years ago, I searched everywhere for a simple explanation, or visual example of how they are used. Unfortunately, there wasn't much available and I learned by just getting a set of 2, 3, and 4 stop grad NDs, and practicing. Below, I've prepared a quick layout of how they work.
In this first photo, no filter was used. The house is well exposed, but the sky is too bright. If I opted to expose for the sky and make it darker, the house would be too dark as well. This is where the grad ND comes into play.
To the left is a 0.9 soft edge grad ND filter. This is also known as a three stop ND. It blocks three stops of light on the darker portion of the filter while letting the normal amount of light pass through the clear bottom portion. The filter on the right is a 1.2 soft edge, and block four stops of light for a more drmatic look. Having a few options is recommended as different scenarios call for varying strengths.
Here you can see where I've placed the 0.9 (3 stop) ND filter over my lens. It fits in a square mount so you can slide it up and down in order to change the effect. Notice how much darker the sky becomes while leaving the house and foreground properly exposed.
The final result is the best of both worlds with a dark, ominous sky and a well exposed house. No post production or HDR was needed.

Achiqar (aramäisch אחיקר) bzw. Aba-Enlil-dana (assyrisch) ist die Hauptfigur einer aramäischen Erzählung. Er bekleidete nach einem in Elephantine gefundenen Papyrus, der einzigen Quelle zu dieser Geschichte, aus dem fünften Jahrhundert v. Chr. unter Sanherib das Amt des königlichen Sieglers. Unter Sanheribs Nachfolger Asarhaddon soll er als königlicher Berater fungiert haben, nachdem er sein Amt an seinen adoptierten Sohn weitergab. Es existieren Übersetzungen und Bearbeitungen des Stoffes in zahlreichen Sprachen des Nahen und Mittleren Ostens.

Die Rahmenhandlung der Geschichte des Achiqar entstand frühestens kurz nach Zusammenbruch des assyrischen Reiches und wurde wahrscheinlich im 6. Jahrhundert v. Chr. verfasst. Die Spruchsammlung wurde nachträglich zwischen die beiden Geschichtsteile eingefügt. Reflexe der Achiqar-Gestalt finden sich in den deuterokanonischen Büchern Judit und Tobit.

Die Spruch- und Fabelsammlung des Achiqar, die in den Kolumnen 3 bis 16 niedergeschrieben wurde, ist wesentlich älter als die Erzählung selbst und konnte aufgrund des altaramäischen Dialektes auf die Wende vom 8. zum 7. Jahrhundert v. Chr. datiert werden. Die Sprüche der Kolumnen 3, 4, 11, 13 und 14 sind verloren gegangen. Der erhaltene Teil weist unter anderem Parallelen zur akkadischen Weisheitsliteratur auf, obwohl kein akkadischer Wortschatz bemerkbar ist. Die Überlieferung setzt sich aus zahlreichen Einzelsprüchen zusammen. Ein redaktionelles Gesamtkonzept scheint nicht vorgelegen zu haben, da der Redaktor augenscheinlich verschiedenste Spruchsammlungen nutzte.

Neben Parallelen zur altägyptischen Literatur liegt eine große Nähe zu israelitisch-jüdischen Weisheitstexten vor. Wesentlich geringer ist der übereinstimmende Anteil bezüglich mesopotamischer Quellen. Die in der Spruchsammlung vorhandenen Gemeinsamkeiten mit der altägyptischen Weisheitslehre nebst einem altägyptischen Lehnwort sowie auffällig starke Einflüsse aus der Region Kanaan verweisen auf eine Herkunft aus dem südsyrisch-libanesischen Raum.

Q: Generate a SSRS report in default browser from VB.NET I have a VB.NET solution that stores data to a SQL database.  I have written the first of several SSRS reports.  Now I want to generate the reports from my VB.NET solution.
I have a subroutine that will generate the report,
Public Shared Sub GenerateReport(ByVal RptName As String, ByVal ParamArray Params() As Object)
    Dim strPath As String = sqlSSRS + Replace(RptName, " ", "%20")
    Dim _class As cParameters

    'strPath += "&rc:Parameters=false&rs:Command=Render"
    'strPath += "&rs:Command=Render"
    For i As Integer = 0 To UBound(Params)
        _class = DirectCast(Params(i), cParameters)
        strPath += "&" & _class.ParamName & "=" & _class.Value
    Next
    System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(strPath)
End Sub

If I generate a path with no parameters the report will open in the default browser. So this works...
http://sqlServerName:80/Reports/report/ToolCrib/Toolbox%20by%20Installer

But neither this ...
http://sqlServerName:80/Reports/report/ToolCrib/Toolbox%20by%20Installer&@UserID=7&@ProjectID=20026&@ToolboxID=10&@ToolStatus=2
or this
http://sqlServerName:80/Reports/report/ToolCrib/Toolbox%20by%20Installer&UserID=7&ProjectID=20026&ToolboxID=10&ToolStatus=2

does.
I obviously have an issue passing parameters.  In one case I don't need them but in other cases I want to provide them, which is why I wrote the GenerateReport routine with the optional Parameter array.  Here is the error message I get which I know from past experience is sort of a catch all when MS doesn't "know" how else to classify an SSRS error.
The path of the item '/ToolCrib/Toolbox by Installer&UserID=7&ProjectID=20026&ToolboxID=10&ToolStatus=2' is not valid. The full path must be less than 260 characters long; other restrictions apply. If the report server is in native mode, the path must start with slash. (rsInvalidItemPath)
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

A: You path needs to use reportserver? instead of Reports/report when using parameters.
Try
http://sqlServerName:80/reportserver?/ToolCrib/Toolbox%20by%20Installer&UserID=7&ProjectID=20026&ToolboxID=10&ToolStatus=2

You could add a REPLACE:
strPath = Replace(strPath, "/Reports/report/", "/reportserver?/")

Synchronised dance at wedding hints at nightmare to come
A SYNCHRONISED dance at the beginning of a wedding reception has foreshadowed the hellish nightmare to come.
Carolyn Ryan, her new husband, plus the bridesmaids and groomsmen entered the room to the Black Eyed Peas' I Gotta Feeling, as onlookers confirmed deep feelings of white hot loathing.
Best man Julian Cook said: "When they said we'd all be doing a dance the blood turned to ice in my veins. As we came into the venue I saw the horror in my soul reflected in the eyes of the guests. And that's not even the worst part."
Guests were seated next to people they had never met, to 'stimulate conversation and start new friendships'. Instead of presents, the couple requested donations to a charity with guest encouraged to 'give whatever their conscience asked of them'.
Cook said: "Also, instead of a band the bride's sister performed a load of songs she'd written herself.
"One was called The Day I fell In love With My New Brother."
The Guardian reader's ways to blame environmental problems on other people
THE natural world is going to hell, but it can't be your fault because you read the Guardian. Here are seven ways to blame everyone else:
Other people look better than you do. For years it's made you feel inadequate, but now they're the bad guys because it's fast fashion and wasting 30,000 litres of water just so they can have three pairs of jeans and look stylish. Climate change placed firmly at their door.
Fancy food
Childless friends bragging about the Michelin-starred restaurant they've been to? Berate them about the exotic meats and vegetables that have been imported, with a unforgivably large carbon footprint, for their dinner. Ask if they enjoyed eating your children's future.
Posh holidays
Your annual holiday isn't camping in Wales because you can't afford anything else. That's a minor side reason. It's because you care about the environment and they don't, with their long-haul trips to the Dutch Antilles. Bastard despoilers.
Single? Yeah it's a personal choice. Because actually bringing kids into a world of global warming and climate change is an act of cruelty. That you can't make a relationship last beyond three months is irrelevant.
Having a well-paid job
Oh, you're in charge of 62 people in four regional offices? And you're fine having that kind of bloated, growth-obsessed workforce on your conscience, are you? You'll be first against the wall when the Thunberg revolution comes.
Difficult to make a direct link, but most people already feel guilty about how much telly they watch so probably won't quiz you about the details. It must be bad because bad people do it. Logic.
Using shampoo and conditioner
Full of microplastics, possibly, or in any case chemicals of some kind which have probably washed down a drain and killed a sea turtle already. Just for you to have glossy hair. Was it worth it? Was it?

These heavenly little cups are a brief diversion of blissful happiness that you will wish could last forever. Not only are they irresistible, they are also packed with protein, fibre, other nutrients and … are incredibly easy to make!
Place all the nuts in your food processor, and process until they almost form a powder. Then add the remaining ingredients, and process until the mix becomes a sticky dough ball. Take out, and place in a bowl.
Next, use a teaspoon to spoon the dough evenly into a 12 cup silicon baking pan. Then add 1 tsp of shredded coconut onto each cupcake, and then make sure to flatten the tops. At this point each cup cake should be approx ¾ full.
Meantime, bain-marie the chocolate with the other topping ingredients, until it has melted. Then spoon the mixture onto the top of each cup cake as evenly as you can.
Place in the fridge overnight, or freeze for an hour or so. If you have enough willpower to resist them, they will also keep well when frozen in an airtight container.

In an unpublished opinion, Fujitsu Software Corp. v. Hinman, No. A112781, 2006 WL 2789139 (Sept. 28, 2006)(available at www.courtinfo.ca.gov/opinions/nonpub/A112781.DOC), California's First District Court of Appeals affirmed a trial court's decision confirming a partial final arbitration award, where a losing party made a variety of state and constitutional claims to try to get the award overturned.
In 2003, Howard E. Hinman and his partner started a business named "zBatch," for developing software. Fujitsu Software Corp. sought to distribute the zBatch software to its customers "in object code form," according to the appeals court opinion.
In September 2003, Hinman and his partner, Glenn Dent, entered into a Master Distribution and Services agreement with Fujitsu for distributing the zBatch software. The agreement contained a technical support and services clause, a termination clause, and a provision for escrow of the software's source code, among other things.
During the master agreement's effective period, Fujitsu sold the zBatch software to several customers. Hinman and Dent received proceeds of more than$100,000 for the zBatch products, and their support and maintenance obligations.
A dispute arose out of the escrow agreement, under which zBatch was required to deposit the source code for the software into escrow with a third-party escrow company, DSI Technology Escrow Services Inc., owned by Iron Mountain Inc.
Hinman and Dent never deposited the source code into escrow. In January 2005, Fujitsu asked about the deposit, and in response Hinman and Dent alleged that they had not signed the escrow agreement.
Fujitsu sent a notice of breach in March 2005, and on March 22, 2005, Dent executed the escrow agreement on behalf of himself and the plaintiff. But they didn't deposit the source code into escrow, claiming instead that the escrow agreement was invalid because Fujitsu entered into a side agreement with Iron Mountain, agreeing to indemnify Iron Mountain from liability to zBatch, in case the source code was accidentally disclosed.
Fujitsu commenced an American Arbitration Association arbitration proceeding in San Francisco in April 2005. But on May 6, 2005, Hinman and Dent–referred to in their attorneys' correspondence as, "collectively, 'zBatch,'"--purported to terminate the master agreement.
Fujitsu sought to amend its arbitration demand to impose individual liability on Hinman and Dent, since zBatch was not incorporated as a limited liability company, but merely operated as a "dba" of zBatch. On May 27, 2005, Hinman and Dent sought to incorporate zBatch as a Delaware LLC.
Then, on July 18, 2006, the parties argued on the merits of the escrow issue, and the support and maintenance issues. A July 31, "Partial Final Award," in Fujitsu's favor, determined that "zBatch LLC" and the principals had continuing support obligations that survived the master agreement's termination, and that source code needed to be deposited in escrow within 10 business days. The award included attorney fees and costs.
Fujitsu sought to confirm the partial award in the San Francisco Superior Court along with temporary restraining order at the end of August, since the principals weren't complying with the award.
Dent and zBatch LLC joined Hinman's opposition and cross-motion. An Oct. 26, 2005, trial court decision echoed the award, ordering zBatch LLC, Dent, and Hinman "to comply with the partial final award and deposit the zBatch source code into escrow," according to the appellate decision. The partial final award was confirmed on Oct. 31, 2005.
Hinman appealed to the California Court of Appeals. And an August federal action by Hinman, pro se, seeking to vacate the award in California's Norther District, was stayed after the Oct. 31 state court confirmation. The federal court granted a Fujitsu motion to stay the federal proceedings under the abstention doctrine, "indicating that Hinman 'appear[ed] to be avoiding on an adverse ruling' by maintaining the federal proceedings," according to the state appeals court opinion.
In the California Court of Appeal, Hinman argued that 1) the judgment was void due to lack of personal jurisdiction, 2) the court erred in affirming the arbitration award because the arbitrator exceeded his powers, 3) the court abused its discretion by confirming an award that indentured Hinman to perform free work in violation of the U.S. Constitution's 13th Amendment, and 4) the arbitrator was biased against him.
Also on the personal jurisdiction issue, the opinion finds that by agreeing to California arbitration, plaintiff Hinman consented to personal jurisdiction in California courts for confirming the arbitration award. Hinman waived "any objection to personal jurisdiction by appearing in the action," the opinion notes.
The opinion examines the award confirmation itself. The appeals court discusses arbitration awards's judicial review standards in Moncharsh v. Heily & Blase 3 Cal.4th 1 (1992), and grounds for vacating an arbitration award under the Code of Civil Procedure. It holds that none of Hinman's grounds for vacating the arbitration award fell within Code Section 1286.2 (a) (4), which lists appropriate grounds.
It also holds that the arbitrator did not exceed his powers by precluding discovery before the arbitration hearing. The opinion notes found that the plaintiff didn't establish that the absence of discovery before the arbitration hearing was prejudicial.
"Moreover," the opinion states, he "did not ask for discovery, and his counsel asserted that evidence was unnecessary" at the hearing.
Hinman also alleged that Fujitsu waived its claims against zBatch, at least as to the source code deposit, and the arbitrator exceeded his powers by failing to dismiss the arbitration "in its entirety or in part." The opinion observes that Fujitsu's arbitration demand occurred less than 18 months after the master agreement's full execution, and therefore was timely.
Hinman argued that the arbitrator exceeded his power by "remaking" the parties' contract. The appeals court observed that Hinman was simply disputing the arbitrator's legal construction of the contract. It notes that the award cannot be set aside merely because the arbitrator made contract interpretation error.
The appeals panel found that the escrow agreement did not end automatically with the master agreement's termination, and the arbitrator did not exceed his powers in his ruling as to the source code escrow.
Plaintiff Hinman argued that the trial court violated the U.S. Constitution's 13th Amendment in confirming the arbitration award ordering zBatch and the principals to provide technical support services to Fujitsu's customers for free past the contract termination.
California's First District Court of Appeal affirmed the judgment.
