Center for Media Studies and Peace Builing Executive Director, Malcolm Joseph
(elbcradio.com/May 18, 2015)-President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has appointed members of the National Governing Council (NGC) of the African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) Country Program.
The NGC comprises stakeholders from various sectors of Liberian society, and provides policy and strategic direction for the rollout of the APRM County Program. They are appointed for a two-year term.
According to an Executive Mansion release, sectors and individual representatives appointed include Government Institutions, represented by Emmanuel David of the General Auditing Commission (GAC), and Civil Society represented by Malcolm Joseph of the Center for Media Studies and Peace Building.
The release also named the Women's Organization, represented by Ma Kebeh Monger of the Rural Women Association, the Private Sector, represented by Dee-Maxwell Kemayah of the Liberia Business Association, and the Marginalized and Disabled, represented by Rev. Fallah Boima-Cymbianoh of the National Union of Organizations of the Disabled.
Others include the Traditional Council, represented by Janjay Jacobs of the Traditional Council of Liberia, as well as Academia, represented by Dr. Kadiker Rex Dahn of the National Commission on High Education.
Appointees from the Ministry of Finance and Development Planning, Political Parties, Youth and Religious Council will be announced later following ongoing consultations, the release also said.
Liberia formally acceded to the APRM in January 2011 and in May 2013, President Johnson-Sirleaf was elected Chairperson of the African Peer Review Forum.
Upon taking office, the Liberian leader appointed the Minister of Finance and Development Planning, Amara Konneh, as National APRM Focal Point, and in 2013, Minister Konneh assumed the Chairmanship of the Committee of APRM Focal Points, the release further noted.
It also noted that the Committee of APRM Focal Points is the sole authority that oversees the APRM administration, and assumes oversight responsibility for the implementation of Liberia's Country Program.
The process to implement the Country Program began with the recent recruitment of a National Secretariat to support the activities of the NGC, which is the Mechanism's highest domestic decision making body.
The African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) was launched in 2003 by the African Union (AU) and it is a mutually agreed instrument voluntarily acceded to by the Member States of the AU as an African self-monitoring mechanism.
The APRM is a bold, unique and innovative approach, designed and implemented by Africans for Africa.
The mandate of the APRM is to encourage conformity in regard to political, economic and corporate governance values, codes and standards, among African countries and the objective in socio-economic development within the New Partnership for Africa's Development.
The objectives of the APRM are primarily to foster the adoption of policies, standards and practices that lead to political stability, high economic growth, sustainable development and accelerated sub-regional and continental economic integration.
Such activities are carried out through experience sharing and reinforcement of successful and best practices, including identifying deficiencies and assessment of requirements for capacity building, it concluded.

Have you ever been insecure? I have. I've been really insecure.
I have two children. A week before my daughter was born, I weighed 198 pounds. I'm only 5'2", so I know exactly what some of the women I work with feel like. In fact, my journey's been longer than many of theirs.
It's been a rewarding journey, though. A secure one. What I've learned along the way has been the importance of distracting myself from looking at the mirror by being active and focusing on achieving goals and learning skills, instead of constantly obsessing over what the scale says. You don't need a scale or a mirror to tell you how you feel.
When I weighed close to 200 pounds, I knew I had to do something to shock my body. When you train a certain way—or you're in a period where you're not training at all—your body tends to get used to what it's doing. That's one of the reasons I love CrossFit and being a CrossFit competitor, because the things you're working on will constantly vary. Add a little muscle to that variation, and things start to happen. I'll explain this later on.
After giving birth to my daughter, my weight continued to hover around 170 pounds. For the past seventeen years, my primary sport has been hockey, so I decided to try Muay Thai boxing as a form of off-ice training. I loved it, and a year later, I took my first fight. It was during my training for that fight that I first tried CrossFit, thinking it was something that could help me.
My trainers told me my priorities were backward because I liked my workouts better than I liked fighting. I mean, fighters like to fight, right? Our training group consisted of me and five guys, so I was always working against them, being pushed harder and harder. If the guys ran a six-minute mile, that would be my goal. Whatever they did, I wanted to beat it—or at least match it.
After my first year of Muay Thai, my weight had dropped to 150 pounds. Once I agreed to take a fight, I had eight weeks to get to 130—a twenty pound drop. I managed this through a combination of CrossFit, lifting, and fight training. I didn't even have to consciously cut weight, and I rarely looked at a scale. Within a year, I'd lost the weight I'd put on, and I'd developed a new philosophy I wanted to share with everyone.
I'm living proof of everything that's been written about on this site with regard to how women should be training—and what they're not doing in the gym. If you want the best possible results from your exercise program, you have to lift heavy weights. If the dumbbells you're using weigh less than the toddler you're picking up and carrying around all day, something's wrong, and you need to fix it immediately.
If you've developed the wrong idea about lifting weights, it's time to change your mindset. Getting under heavy weights will change everything in your life, both physically and psychologically. Your body reacts quickly to it, it's the fastest way to change your body composition—and, therefore, how you look—and you can't get "toned" without having any muscle underneath. You can't tone what's not there.
The best way to get started is to forget about the scale and find a goal you want to attain. I never ask any of my clients to tell me how much they want to weigh. That's not the point of all of this. Once we've learned the fundamental movements we'll be doing regularly, I tell them to give me a goal they think would be reachable within a few months, followed by a long-term goal that's totally skill-oriented.
What I mean by "skill-oriented" is developing the ability to do something you've never done before. If you can't do a pull-up, or you've never climbed a rope, I want you to learn how to do those things. Your goal can even be something very basic, like a simple push-up. If you've never been able to do a fundamentally correct push-up in your life, the idea here is to spend the next few months developing the ability to do that—without looking at the scale. The weight—and fat—will come off by itself as a byproduct of everything else you're doing.
I train my female clients this way because as women, we already have issues with our bodies. We're insecure. When your goal changes from hitting a number on a scale to building a skill you've never had, you feel strong, powerful, and confident, because you're learning something new that's going to keep you interested. You won't get discouraged by the scale. Instead, you'll experience the excitement of doing something with your body that you've never been able to do before.
This is your ultimate solution to all those "hamster wheel" marathons you've been putting in on all the cardio machines in your gym. If you've never done a pull-up before, the idea is to learn where your weaknesses are and address them so you can do pull-ups. We accomplish this by breaking down your skill goal and figuring out where you need work—your weak points. From there, we design workouts that build those weaknesses up to the point where they're strengths.
In the coming weeks and months, especially once this site is relaunched, my plan is to give you skills to work on, and goals to set. I'll start you off with an end result, like doing a real pull-up or a real push-up, and I'll show you how to deconstruct things in order to find out where you need work. From there, I'll show you how to custom design your workouts based on where you need the most help.
Your results? They'll absolutely astonish you. Take a few months to learn a new skill, use The Carb Nite Solution and Carb Back-Loading, then step on the scale and look at your before/after photos once you've hit your goal. I guarantee you'll be pleased.

I am working on two projects as part of the Humanities Research Seminar. During the course of the year, I will complete a book, Golden Age and Apocalypse: The End of the World in Greek and Roman Thought for Johns Hopkins University Press. This book provides the first full-scale study of the various ways in which ancient Greek and Roman authors, from the archaic Greek poet Hesiod, to Plato, Lucretius, Vergil, and Marcus Aurelius, imagined the possible fates that awaited humanity. I am also starting a new project on the history and development of the different meanings of the word "apocalypse," beginning with ancient Greek texts and continuing to modern media. As director of the seminar, I am enjoying discussing with my colleagues ancient and modern theories about world catastrophe and renewal.

The Independence of India and Pakistan
British rule over India came to an end in August 1947. India was now independent, but it was also partitioned, resulting in the creation of Pakistan. The abrupt division of India forced the largest mass migration in history, with perhaps 10 million refugees crossing the new borders. It is estimated that a million people lost their lives. My project for the Humanities Seminar is to write a proposal for a concise textbook on the history of Indian and Pakistani independence.
My history aims to offer a fresh and clear perspective on the partition. It will analyze the principal conflict between the Muslim League, with its demand for Pakistan, and the Indian National Congress, with its vision for a united India. It will outline the increasingly ineffectual and yet consequential policies and positions adopted by the British. It will also explain the precarious position of the Sikhs and others, including Dalits, who were marginalized or otherwise affected by the decisions leading to independence and the violent partition.

Student Activism, BIPOC Resistance, and Superhero Comic Books
When Middlebury College experienced the Charles Murray incident in 2017, the institution reached a low point where the faculty and student bodies were very divided by the events in which protesters were often disparaged as thugs violating free speech ideals. While conducting research, I discovered that Murray's controversial book tour had already been parodied a few decades earlier in the comic book Supergirl 23 (published in 1998). As I was reading a number of comic books set in bleak moments of American history, I noticed that student activism had been part of the superhero stories since the 1960s. Originally the students were mocked in Robin and Spider-Man stories where "hippies" and POC students were portrayed as unreliable and a threat to the system. According to scholar Roderick A. Ferguson, this type of conservative propaganda began as a ploy of the Nixon administration to discredit the student movements, and continues today in the pages of neoliberal media companies such as The New York Times.
After the 1970s and towards the end of the Vietnam War, readers pressured comic book writers to create more political stories that redefined the representation of student struggles within more complex ideological narratives. In this article, I will discuss how American writers introduced BIPOC superhero characters such as White Tiger, Steel, and La Borinqueña, who supported university protests and provided an alternate point of view to the white characters (Spider-Man, Robin, Supergirl), who in turn supported the university administration and its economic interests. My main goal is to explore how the continuous serialized nature of the superhero genre provides us with a cultural frame to understand the evolution of the corporate demonization of student struggles throughout several crises in American history and to highlight the role of BIPOC characters and artists in parodying and subverting the hegemonic appropriation of philosophical values such as "free speech."

The Sound of the Sacred in an Age of Crisis: Russian Old Believers Between Revolution and Reaction, 1905–1917
My project looks at how Old Believers, a religious community alternately ignored and repressed by the imperial Russian state for over two centuries, sought to redefine their place within a rapidly modernizing society between the 1905 and 1917 revolutions in Russia. With the declaration of religious tolerance in 1905, Old Believers had the possibility to openly express and debate their views for the first time in their history. However, it quickly became clear that their isolated communities scattered across the breadth of the empire lacked a unifying basis. Cultural leaders embraced religious chant (imagined as an ancient heritage that preserved an earlier, more spiritual age) as a possible means both to redefine "genuine" Russianness and to potentially win over a new audience within a society traumatized by war and revolution. This chapter is part of a larger book project on the intersection between aurality, religious beliefs, and conflicting national/ethnic identities within the late Russian empire.

Patricia Saldarriaga
I am currently working on my book titled Infected Empires: Decolonizing Zombies in co-authorship with Emy Manini. We contend that the zombie can be read as a decolonizing image of necroactivism that exposes the wounds of historical affects and the contemporary global order and illustrates techniques of resistance. Our book aims at looking into the zombie as a transnational cinematic phenomenon and we hope to present a vision of a global zombie. We submit that these local presentations of zombies, coming as they do from smaller, international film industries, do have a global application, considering the network of interrelated power structures and endless war we experience in globalization. As the zombie has germinated in the Americas and spread to infect the world, each culture that deals with it puts its own spin on the monster in ways that apply globally. During this semester, I am writing a chapter titled "Of Matter, Dust, and Earth: Zombies and the Environment." The chapter includes a discussion on how zombie films confront possible apocalyptic, catastrophic futures that may mark the end of the Anthropocene era. Because we are currently dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic, a global health crisis, the chapter aims at studying the way the current official outbreak narratives (e.g. the Trump administration's), as well as biopolitics and securitization, intersect with the treatment of migrants, disabled people, and many other minority groups. Zombies can be conceived as cyphers of coloniality, racism, misogyny, ableism, and alienated labor.

Beyond the Barrack and the Canteen: Designing for Women, Children, and the State of Emergency
As mechanized trench warfare came to the brink of collapse during the First World War, individuals and institutions alike demanded the creation of food banks, victory gardens, collective kitchens, and appropriate housing. Moving fluidly between design history, material culture, and architectural and urban history, as well as the entwined histories of architecture and social-scientific debates, my work for the Humanities Seminar will take the form of an article that moves beyond the factory canteen and army barrack to "mass feeding" and housing initiatives created by and focused explicitly on the needs of women and children—in the heart of and on the fringes of Empire. These efforts often included the "carrot" of training courses, the redesign of factories, and—central to this examination—access to food supplements, pre-prepared meals, and well-designed housing. A subject of established scholarship on the American home front during the Second World War, few architectural historians have examined the architecture (broadly construed) of the First World War in general, much less the architectural and social supports of women working in "essential" war industries in a time of crisis, nor what happened to such supports and those reliant on them after the cessation of hostilities. I believe a reexamination of this phenomenon and the crisis that followed is long overdue.

SAN RAMON, Calif., Jan. 21, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Galena Biopharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:GALE), a biopharmaceutical company committed to the development and commercialization of targeted oncology therapeutics that address major unmet medical needs, today presented data from an observational study in gastric cancer patients at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2016 Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium in San Francisco, CA. The study was conducted by Galena's partner, Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Ltd, under the license agreement for NeuVax™ (nelipepimut-S) which includes the commercialization rights in India. As part of the license agreement, Dr. Reddy's will conduct a Phase 2 clinical trial of NeuVax in gastric cancer patients in India.
This prospective, observational study was undertaken to estimate the expression of HER2 (1+, 2+, or 3+) with HLA-A2 and/or HLA-A3 type positive gastric cancer patients in the Indian population. The poster, entitled, "An observational study evaluating the expression of HER2 (1+, 2+, and 3+) with HLA A2+/A3+ in gastric adenocarcinoma patients" is being presented during today's poster session. Of the 50 patients evaluated, 12 (24%) were positive for HER2 (1+, 2+, 3+) with HLA A2/A3 alleles. Of the 12 patients, 9 (75%) and 3 (25%) expressed HLA A2/A3, respectively, with no patient demonstrating HER2 3+ expression. Results from this study suggest patients with gastric or GE junction adenocarcinoma have HLA A2 and/or A3 expressing tumors with mostly HER2 1+, 2+ expression. The estimated incidence of HER2 3+ expression in this population may be limited by the size of the current study (n=50). Approximately 25% of the patients met the projected clinical protocol population of all levels of expression of HER2 and HLA A2+ and/or A3+ as defined for the planned NeuVax Phase 2 clinical trial. Results indicate an acceptable potential for enrollment rate, given the high incidence of gastric cancer in this population, and will inform the screen failure rate in the planned Phase 2 clinical study.
Tumor tissue samples from gastric or GE junction adenocarcinoma patients were collected from S. L. Raheja Hospital, Mumbai, India. A serum sample was collected for HLA testing by quantitative PCR (polymerase chain reaction). Immunohistochemistry (IHC) (DAKO, 1:600 dilution) was employed for detection of HER2.

According to the National Cancer Institute, gastric (stomach) cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the lining of the stomach. Almost all gastric cancers are adenocarcinomas (cancers that begin in cells that make and release mucus and other fluids). Other types of gastric cancer are gastrointestinal carcinoid tumors, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, and lymphomas. Infection with bacteria called Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a common cause of gastric cancer and age, diet, and stomach disease can affect the risk of developing gastric cancer. Gastric cancer is often diagnosed at an advanced stage because there are no early signs or symptoms.

The Democrats know they can't get rid of ol' Mitch McConnell out of the Senate. They tried back in 2014 with Kentucky Secretary of State Allison Lundergan Grimes, but that didn't work out.
So the Democrats are doing the next best thing which is asking for folks help in taking away ol' Mitch's power by demoting him to the position of Minority Leader in the Senate.
Two Fridays ago on March 15, 2019, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) sent out a promoted tweet asking folks if they want "to flip the Senate and Ditch Mitch," who's become a symbol of how too much power in the hands of one party is bad for the country.
During his tenure as the Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell has done everything in his power to protect Donald Trump.
He's helped to get controversial judges like Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh through the confirmation process and on to the U.S. Supreme Court. McConnell voted against the Senate's bill to block Trump's national emergency declaration, and McConnell blocked a bill on the Senate floor that was passed unanimously in the House to release Robert Mueller's report on the Russian Investigation.
McConnell isn't worried about what the country wants because he's in the deep red state of Kentucky which has a cult like devotion to their "Lord and Savior of Coal," Donald Trump.
It's for that reason McConnell just knows his leadership position as the Senate Majority Leader is safe.
Sure, the numbers are on his side. There are 53 Republicans, 45 Democrats, and 2 Independents who vote with Democrats in the Senate.
In order to flip the Senate, the Democrats must take back six Republican seats and hold on to the seats they have.
Out of the 20 Senate Republicans who are up for re-election, 18 of them are in deep red states that voted for Trump in 2016.
Susan Collins in Maine and Cory Gardner in Colorado are the two senators the Democrats may be able to pick off because they're in more moderate states that can easily swing towards the Democrats' direction.
Senator Thom Tillis is another senator the Democrats see as vulnerable. However, he's in the Bible belt state of North Carolina. And if Tillis is replaced, it will be by another Republican.
For their part, the 11 Democrats are pretty safe. I know, I know, I know Doug Jones won a special election to beat the political R. Kelly, Roy Moore, for Jeff Sessions' seat.
I doubt, though, that Jones will be given the boot. He's done a pretty good job of playing the role of a modern Dixie Crat who knows how to straddle the fence without getting knocked over by either side.
This whole bit about the numbers, now, doesn't mean there isn't any hope for the Democrats.
A Fox News poll shows that over a majority of voters aren't too happy with how the Republican president, Donald Trump, is handling healthcare.
Healthcare is an issue which, by the way, helped the Democrats to take back the House last year.
With Donald Trump talking about wiping out the now popular Obamacare, chances are the voters throughout the country may very well decide they need to promote Chuck Schumer to Majority Leader so they can have a balance of power between the Executive Branch and the Legislative Branch.
And yes folks, one issue can lead to one party taking control of Congress. Just ask the Republicans how they were able to take back Congress in 2014.
The Republicans took Congress back the same way the Democrats took back the House in 2018 and the same way the Democrats may very well take Congress back in 2020, with the help of Obamacare.

Venable partner and retired Navy Rear Admiral Jamie Barnett's pro bono representation of an Army captain who accused Brigadier General Jeffrey Sinclair of sexual assault was featured in multiple publications. General Sinclair pleaded guilty to lesser charges in a deal accepted by a military judge on Monday with sentencing continuing this week. As part of the deal, the Army dropped the more severe violence related charge in exchange for an admission of guilt to several lesser charges. The Los Angeles Times, NPR, and Foreign Policy continued coverage of the proceeding on March 18, 2014.
According to the Los Angeles Times, in a Tuesday statement, Admiral Barnett said General Sinclair "not only disgraced his uniform, he used his command authority in a way that was both inappropriate and illegal." He added, "It is past time to explain or parse either his behavior or judgment." In the military, according to Admiral Barnett, a sexual relationship between a senior commander and a junior officer cannot be consensual due to the considerable authority commanders wield over those they command. "It is sexual abuse and victimization of the junior person," said Admiral Barnett.
In addition to Admiral Barnett, partner Becky Pearson, a former Air Force Judge Advocate, provided counsel along with Army Captain Cassie Fowler of the Army's Special Victims Counsel program.

If you are looking for a truly relaxing way to enjoy the stunning scenery and wildlife that the Tamar Valley has to offer, then there is simply no better way to do it than with a Canoe Tamar safari.
The river Tamar divides Cornwall and Devon. The canoe trip starts from Cotehele Quay. You will be on the water between two and two and a half hours and we will take a picnic break at our private river side wild meadow.
Cotehele Quay is part of the National Trust property based around Cotehele House, Cornwall. The Shamrock, a fully restored Tamar barge is moored there. There are tearooms in the Edgcombe Arms on the quay and delicious local organic ice cream for sale.
On our canoe trip you will paddle past the steep woodlands of the Cotehele estate and the chapel built by Sir Richard Edgcumbe to mark his escape from the Roundheads. A sharp bend in the river take us past Danescombe House, built for a mine captain and once a hotel. Boatyards and moorings bring us to the famous Calstock viaduct completed in 1907 which we paddle underneath. The viaduct is still in use by the Tamar Valley rail link from Gunnislake to Plymouth, and our halt at the village.
The river then winds it way up past Okel Tor Quay and Gawton Quay, once part of a large thriving copper industry with ships taking the ore from the 19th century mines along the valley. There is evidence of the mining activity all the way, with ruins, chimneys and disused small quays.
Our destination point on the river can vary depending on the weather and enthusiasm of the paddlers! But often we will get as far as, the affectionately known "Pirate Ship"…once a grand little boat that moored along the river, now the bones lay submerged with the mast still standing proud above the water. We turn at this point and head back down river to our lovely spot at Rumleigh Farm where a stretch of the legs and a snack gives us a boost for the journey back!
Our instructors will happily talk to you about the history and your surroundings on the trip and will endeavor to answer any questions you have along the way!

John Edward Gray (12. februar 1800 – 7. marts 1875) var en britisk zoolog. Han var storebror til George Robert Gray og søn af farmakologen og botanikeren Samuel Frederick Gray.

John Gray var zoologiinspektør ved British Museum i London fra 1840 til 1874. Han udgav adskillige kataloger over museets samlinger, hvilke også indeholdte omfattende diskussioner om dyregrupper samt beskrivelser af nye arter. Han forbedrede de zoologiske samlinger, og gjorde dem til nogle af de bedste i verden.

Gray var født i Wallsall, men hans familie flyttede til London, hvor han studerede medicin. Han hjalp sin far med at skrive The Natural Arrangement of British Plants (1821). Gray blev ansat ved British Museums zoologiske afdeling i 1824 for at hjælpe John George Children med at katalogisere reptilsamlingen. I 1840 overtog han Childrens post som zoologiinspektør.

Gennem de 50 år, hvor han var ansat ved British Museum skrev Gray næsten 500 afhandlinger, hvoraf mange beskrev helt nye arter.

CLEWISTON — Thousands of people filled the streets of "America's Sweetest City" and jammed onto the Sugar Festival grounds to jam with the bands as the annual celebration took place Saturday, March 17.
Majesty of Rock kicked off the festivities with a free concert Friday night, March 15, covering the music of Journey and Styx. It ran from 7 to 10 p.m. and drew a great crowd, said U.S. Sugar spokeswoman Jennifer Black.
The featured bands during Sunday's festival were The Jeremy Bowman Band, Phil Vassar and Gretchen Wilson, with the Brothers Osborne headlining at day's end. But the main stage, while the main focus, was hardly the only place fun was being had.
It seemed like the entire library/festival grounds/Youth Center/park area, encompassing several square blocks, was just a giant playground. With food aplenty for every taste bud. And diversions galore. The Seminole Tribe's Kids Fun Zone. And cool, cool lemonade. Smoothies. Candy. Balloons. Babies in strollers everywhere, cooing, with parents and friends ooohing and aaahing. Parents and young couples, boisterous tweens and teenagers and oldsters in rocking lawn chairs and motorcyclers with their "mamas." Enticements simply abounded.
"I think with our candy shop and our Sweet Taste Contest, it was all a huge success this year. We had a nice cake war — we had a $500 purse for that — and we had over 38 entries into that.
"We want to thank our sponsors, who are the most important parts that made it possible. U.S. Sugar, of course, as the presenting sponsor; we had FPL; we had the Seminole Tribe, who really helped us out with the kids park. FPL sponsored the Friday night entertainment. We also had Palm Peterbilt Truck Centers and Allied Portables, who helped us with our portables," she said. The H.E. Hill Foundation, United Sugars Corporation and Discover Hendry County (Tourism Development Council) were also sponsors.
Some of the grounds decorations were given away, and with the rest, she said, she'll work with the city to find a park that needs beautification.
"This year was probably one of our best displays. We had quite a technology display; we had, of course, our bell on the outside — that's actually an old bell from one of our railroad trains. We had two railroad benches out front that were made mostly by our own people.
Ms. Black mentioned the Breakfast With the Chamber that honored Mary Ann Martin on Wednesday, March 13. Noting that "we ended up moving it to the Tiki Bar, which is really her home base," Ms. Black went on: "It was so great to be there for the morning; great breakfast, great presentation; and a good, friendly turnout.
The Clewiston Sugar Festival is all about gratitude for a bountiful harvest — and for all those who harvest what the town has to offer to make life better for everyone.
"I just want to really thank our volunteers, and everyone from both the community and the city — and the company — who really make this day possible for so many people who don't know anything about our community that make the trek out here, who come an hour and a half or more … folks from everywhere!" Ms. Black went on.

All IT organizations have an urgent need for security - of information, people, resources, and data. It requires, however, both knowledge and experience to test security.
The first thing to consider for security testing is application security, such as cross-site scripting and exploits. Most of these issues can be countered when testing based on the guidelines from The Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP).
NNIT consultants can help you counter security threats for web and other platforms. We have vulnerability scanners and training to address your application security needs.
NNIT provides compliance consultants within the data security area who can help you with compliance towards the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) on topics of personal identifiable information.
Besides your company's own data points and applications, you have to consider how to handle personal identifiable information about your customers and persons registered in your applications, including employees and applicants.
NNIT security testing includes analyzing your practices regarding hashing of passwords and credentials to limit the impacts of data breaches.
Data breaches are very sensitive if you do not consider the notion of segregation of data. Your critical business plans or similar classified information must be segregated and compartmentalized in all systems.
Compartmentalization and identity access management are common practices within physical security and infrastructure security.
We can test whether your IT systems match the required segregation of data and accesses, or if a simple USB stick can compromize your entire company.
Many IT companies benefit greatly from the ISO27000 practices behind information security management. NNIT provides security consultants in ISO27000 to help you focus on topics such as confidentiality, integrity, availability, and controls.
At the NNIT Test Excellence Center we are dedicated and have a passion for adding business value. We take pride in meeting our customers' expectation every time.


God would not have put you in the world if you were not the most qualified person for your calling.
God has a Word to get out. A few words, actually: Power. Love. Peace. Jesus Christ. Salvation. Abundance. Restoration. Healing. Everything He is and does, He wants creation to know. e is getting that word out through people, partnering with His creation. I can think of two major reasons why — 1. to build a relationship (working with us) and 2. to demonstrate His glory (working through us).
Isaiah 43:7 states, "Everyone who is called by My name, whom I have created for My glory; I have formed him, yes, I have made him" (NKJV, emphasis added).
You were created for God's glory. This means that the main purpose for your life is to point back to God and say He deserves the glory. Your existence, your talents, your job, your family, etc. All of it should be evidence of God's existence and power.
Wouldn't it follow, then, that one of your most useful qualities to God is that you don't have "what it takes"? Think about David and Goliath. If God had sent a 9-foot trained-from-birth warrior to represent the Israelites, who would have been praised for the victory? It would have been easy to look at the warrior's physical strength and training as the explanation for his success. David, on the other hand, is the youngest man in his family. He has never been trained for battle, he isn't part of the Israelite army, and he doesn't even have armor. David's victory, the victory of the "unqualified", is a straight arrow to God.
God uses the same approach through Gideon (insecure > mighty warrior), Peter (unstable > rock on which the church was built), Paul (brutal persecutor > 1 Corinthians 13), etc. His existence and power is evident through the success of the unqualified. And if His purpose for us is to demonstrate His glory, as stated in Isaiah, then the least qualified will be the most qualified to fulfill that purpose.
The less qualified you are, the more qualified you are.
I wrote a little bit about my husband in my last blog "No Filter Needed", but I want to go a little deeper into Tyler's life right now. It's a rather good story.
Tyler was born on March 1, 1994 with little chance of making it out of the hospital. Three months premature and just a little over two pounds, he was small enough to fit inside his dad's hand. His vitals were dismal and his brain was flooded, to the point that the doctor started preparing his parents to say their goodbyes. God miraculously kept Tyler alive through weeks of medical complications, but the brain flooding still affected his early learning. A major speech impediment, difficulty concentrating, and a constant struggle to retain new concepts landed Tyler in special education classes throughout elementary and middle school. A simple math problem would take him two hours to complete, with help.
By the time he was a senior in high school, teachers didn't have an observable "reason" to believe in his academic ability. In fact, many teachers told Tyler and his parents that the time and fees involved in college applications would be a waste; he shouldn't bother because he wouldn't make it in. Despite the discouragements, Tyler applied.
The enemy's plan is to convince you that you'll never be qualified, and he'll use any avenue he can find to do that. He'll use other people's comments: Don't you have to be really smart to be a doctor?… What makes you think you're good enough for her?… Applying for that scholarship is a waste of your time." Those comments may come from so many directions that they start to echo in your own voice: I'm not creative enough to write music… I'll never be smart enough for grad school… How could I be happily married when my family has a history of bad relationships?
That may be what the enemy says, but God says something different.
Tyler got straight A's his first semester of college, in case you're curious. He has made it on the Dean's List multiple semesters and graduates this spring with a well-earned degree in aviation. He moved forward despite his early struggle. He moved in faith despite the letter.
I'm not saying that if you have a particular gifting, God's not going to use it. God gave you your natural talents in the first place. I'm not going to stop using my voice just because it's a good one. My voice fits within my calling. But I'm called to go way beyond what a good voice qualifies me to do, and that's the place where God's glory is coming through — visual, tangible evidence that God exists. God is powerful. God qualifies me.
You can't know what you're qualified to do until you let God do it through you. If you don't know what your calling is yet, I can tell you with 100% confidence that it's much bigger than what you're qualified to do. That means not saying no to a job opportunity because you think you're not equipped, not dismissing college because you think you're not smart enough, not giving up on good relationships because you think you're incapable of keeping one. You are here — in your life, in your family, in your position — because you are the most qualified to be here. You are the most qualified to show God's glory through your life. Show the world how impressive God is by moving forward in faith. Don't use your (un)qualifications as an excuse. God will not let His glory go unnoticed.
Good things come to those who wait, right? Yes. Does it always feel like that? No.
And when I say wait, I mean like waiting for paint to dry or waiting for your mom to stop talking to her "long-lost friend" in the grocery store… You know what I mean? The kind of waiting that is tapping your foot, sighing and checking your watch. You get the picture? That is called being impatient. "God, when will you reveal your gifts in me?", "God, where is my perfect guy?! You promised!" And you know what that is? Complaining. Sound familiar?
In Exodus 5:22-6:12, Moses cries out to God asking Him why His people are enslaved. God answered, "I will bring you and your people out from under the yoke of slavery and I will bring you to the land I promised to you" (paraphrased). Soon after, through the Ten Plagues and the parting of the Red Sea, God saves the Israelites and there begins their journey to the Promised Land. You would think after being rescued from slavery that the Israelites would be thankful, right? Wrong. Numbers 11 says, "One day the Israelites started complaining about their troubles" (11:1 CEV). They were just saved from a life of slavery and are complaining! It isn't just one complaint, either; their complaints are continuous and eventually lead them to forty years of wandering in the wilderness.
When I turned 22, I had enough of "wandering in the wilderness," and I decided to take matters into my own hands. I wanted my perfect guy and I wanted him now! I bet that sounds familiar, too.
Abram and Sarai attempted to fulfill God's promise on their own (AKA compromise) instead of patiently waiting on God's perfect promise. That is exactly what I did. I got impatient and found a guy that fit most of the promise. I mean, who's really going to meet all of my desires? A few months into the relationship, I realized I had made a mistake and wasted valuable time.
The great thing about Abram & Sarai's story is that it didn't end there… In Genesis 17, God changes Abram & Sarai's names to Abraham and Sarah, meaning that they will be the father and mother of many nations. Then in Genesis 21, Sarah gives birth to a son named Isaac, and God blesses Him. Still, God didn't stop there. He blesses Ishmael, too. Isn't that neat? God didn't just bless the promise; He also blessed the result of Abraham's and Sarah's mistake, after they chose to obey.
Throughout the book of Genesis, Abraham and Sarah continue to be blessed in many ways, but the coolest thing to me is that in Hebrews 11:8-12, the Spirit of God chose to mention them in the "Hall of Faith," basically saying that they were blessed because they decided to believe that God was faithful.
That is the key, isn't it? Deciding that God is faithful, no matter what? When we come to the realization that God is faithful, that HE WILL do what He promised, waiting doesn't have to be "foot-tapping-watch-checking waiting" anymore.
Shortly after I ended my relationship with the wrong guy, I was reading Hebrews 6:12, which says, "We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised [by God)" (NIV). In this scripture, God is instructing His people not to be lazy, but that doesn't mean He wants us to make our own promise. He wants us to have faith and patience. As I was meditating on those two words, God revealed something to my heart that finally made everything click. God doesn't want His children to wait. That word in itself means to "stay where one is or delay action until a particular time." Rather than wait, He wants us to patiently prepare.
We've been given a promise, and waiting won't lead us to receive it. We need to patiently prepare ourselves, making ourselves ready for use so that when the promise does come, we are ready. That sounds a lot like faith, doesn't it? Hebrews 11:1 states, "Now faith is the confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not [yet] see" (NIV).
Has God promised you an Ephesians 3:20 spouse? Someone who is exceedingly above all that you can ask or imagine? Don't just wait. Prepare. Read marriage books, study God-centered marriages, and grow so that when your God-given promise reveals itself, you are ready.
Is it your desire to have a baby? It's God's, too, but don't just wait. Prepare. Read books on Godly parenting. Sow a seed by investing your time into the others' children. Paint the nursery and buy the diapers.
Literally anything that God has promised you (i.e. health, financial security, a new job, etc.). He is asking you to patiently prepare – to trust that He is faithful and will bring about what He has promised.
Now, back to my story… Two and a half years have passed since I decided to patiently prepare myself for my future spouse. Over that time, I asked God to change my heart to be ready for my future spouse. I read numerous marriage books, listened to relationship podcasts, prayed for my future spouse, studied healthy marriages, praised God for my future marriage and chose to be content, knowing that God had my back and has set aside someone for me. Although this part of my story is still being written, four months ago, when I was least expecting it, God brought me to a man who meets all — yes, ALL — my desires.
And He fully intends and desires to show you His faithfulness. But first, He needs us to transform our tendency to wait into a habit of patiently preparing.

War veteran, 94, dies in Arkansas nursing home during storm
by: Tom Negovan, Edited by Aleksandra Bush, Nexstar Media Wire
MONETTE, Ark. (NewsNation Now) — A 94-year-old man was killed inside a rural Arkansas nursing home, one of two people to lose their lives in the state after tornadoes tore through the region.
At the height of the storm Friday, elderly residents at Monette Manor were quickly moved to shelter. Golden Hembry, a Korean war veteran and COVID-19 survivor, was in a hallway when the roof caved in.
"He'd talk a little bit about his service, but not much," said his brother Jimmie Hembry. "He wouldn't talk about it unless you would just bring it up."
What happened at the tornado-destroyed candle plant?
Jimmie Hembry, 82, said he raced to the nursing home through swirling debris before finding out his brother did not survive the storm.
"He come back and he said, 'Golden didn't make it,'" said his nephew Michael Hembrey. "We said 'What?' He said it again … and he went to crying."

On Sunday, the nursing home was surrounded by workers cleaning up, many of them volunteers. Some said they're wondering how anyone survived.
"Wheelchairs out in the street, in the road, in the ditch … It hurts to see the nursing home like that," said volunteer Matthew Benavides. "It's painful to watch something like that."

Only five people were injured at the nursing home. Staff used their own bodies as human shields Friday night to protect residents from the deadly tornado.
By Sunday evening, some displaced residents were back with their families. Others had been moved to other nursing homes in the area.
Why the southern US is prone to December tornadoes
The co-owner of the Monette Manor nursing home is now talking about how to rebuild.
"It's been a part of the community for many, many, many years, and we can't even think about it not being,"
said Rick Sampson.
Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson declared a state of emergency for the area.
"Probably the most remarkable thing is there's not a greater loss of life," Hutchinson said.
The other fatality in the state occurred inside a Dollar Store in Leachville.

Bingo – How It Works Today
2 years ago Steven Vega
Bingo originated in India and is now played in many countries all over the world. In the United States, bingo evolved as a card game where each participant places cards together and whisper number printed on those cards, calling out the chosen numbers by the bingo caller, who marks the numbers. Today, bingo has developed technologically, so that its structure and rules can be easily altered. This allows for a variety of games to be played in the comfort of your own home. Bingo is also played in casinos, bingo parlors and in other places where group games of bingo are normally played.
Before the introduction of bingo cards printed with numbers, bingo was conducted using a mechanism of roulette where players marked cards with numbers whereby they were waiting for their opponents to call out the right numbers. And this was an even more difficult game than bingo. Players used to place their bets at specific intervals and wait till their opponents did so. In order to win the game, one had to be able to read the cards well and come out with the right answer. In this way, the game gained its name.
Bingo as we know it today evolved in the early 20th century when an American named Jackpot caught the fancy of the British Royal Court. The Royal Court decided to make jackpots that were larger than the prize money to be awarded to people playing bingo at the London bingo hall. Soon, this led to the formation of what is known as "the 90-ball game", which is the earliest version of bingo.
As the game evolved, the players started to mark off the numbers by laying out the cards one by one. Eventually, the layout of the bingo cards came to include only seven rows and five columns – a layout that is still familiar to us today. But the main difference with our current Bingo is that instead of using a wheel to decide the numbers, players now use a fixed number of free spaces (provided to them by the Bingo house) to mark the numbers on their Bingo cards.
In previous versions of Bingo, the caller had to be able to correctly identify which free space corresponded to each of the seven rows of cards. In other words, if the caller didn't see a particular number, he or she had to guess that the card was already out. The free spaces were thus not particularly helpful to the caller. One could, however, gain some useful information about the caller's position by looking at the number of the bingo card that came next to the number being called – but this information wasn't always reliable.
Finally, the introduction of "the ninety-ball bingo cards" changed the way bingo was played forever. The new cards were introduced, and they changed the way in which bingo was played. Rather than having the caller makes an educated guess as to the numbers to be called, the new ninety-ball bingo cards feature numbers that are pre-arranged within three horizontal lines. This allows the caller to know with certainty (often to the point of accuracy) the number of the number that is to be called. The numbers can then be decided upon by the players, and the cards are rolled up into a single ball with the appropriate number of spades. A single ball is then tossed, and all the circles must line up in a straight line.

Company News, Oceania, Property
Tenant experience software provider Equiem raises $12.4M in equity
Property Editor
Equiem, a tenant experience software provider, has raised $12.4 million in, what is considered its largest equity round in the company's history.
The developer of "intranets for buildings", was founded by Lorenz Grollo, Matthew O'Halloran and Stuart Richardson in 2011, and has gone onto work with 10 of Australia's 11 biggest real estate investment trusts.
The Melbourne-based company's tenant experience platform, dubbed Equiem Next, acts as an intranet for tenants in an office building.
The software assists corporate landlords looking to master a focus on relationships with the occupiers of their buildings and not just the corporate tenants with which they sign lease agreements.
Equiem's platform gives landlords more ability to curate and manage the retail mix of their buildings – an increasingly important offering for Premium and A-grade landlords at a time when tenants are taking shorter leases.
The company's technology is now used by more than 145,000 people across 5.5 million square meters of prime commercial space worldwide.
The funds raised will be used to further develop the portal provider's technology and help it expand overseas.
In the last two years Equiem has expanded to the US, the UK and Ireland, rolling out across more than 1.97 million square meters in those markets. The firm has identified Canada and Singapore as its next markets for further expansion.
The company's total funds raised to date to $30 million and sets it up for a Series B funding round in the next year.
Join us November 12-15 for the Property Portal Watch Conference Madrid 2019.


WHITESTOWN, Ind. - Police in Whitestown spent the Thursday before Christmas spreading some holiday cheer around town.
An anonymous donor gave the department $2,500 to give away with the only requirement that it be given out through random acts of kindness. Police Chief Dennis Anderson said he and officers decided they would surprise 25 people with $100 bills.
"I feel like Santa Claus," Anderson said. "I mean just to see the reactions on their face and how their face lights up, because the last thing they expect."
"Are you stinking kidding me? Are you stinking kidding me? That's a $100 bill," Debra Knight said, who was surprised with the money with her three grandchildren in the back seat. "I'm thinking I went the speed limit, I had seat belts on all of us and I'm thinking I'm getting pulled over?"
Police pulled over people Thursday for driving well, instead of for breaking the law. Chief Anderson said this gave citizens to see his officers in a different light.
"It gives the people that sense that we are human beings and we are here to protect and serve and we do care about the community and we do care about the people," Anderson said. "That's the priceless part. I mean just to see the reactions on their face and how their face lights up."
The department plans to give the entire $2,500 away before Christmas.


GRAPEVINE, Texas (AP) — The Big 12 Conference has decided against expansion from its current 10 members.
The announcement came after a six-hour meeting Monday with the conference's university presidents and Commissioner Bob Bowlsby.
The Big 12 has been analyzing expansion options for the last three months, but it never made a commitment to expand.
Conference officials held interviews in September with Air Force and Colorado State from the Mountain West; Central Florida, Cincinnati, Connecticut, Houston, South Florida, SMU and Tulane from the American Athletic Conference; and BYU, which is a football independent with its other sports in the West Coast Conference.

Davis Blank Furniss: Working from Home? No Problem with SOS Connect
By Legal Futures' Associates SOS
After having been in business for over 100 years, you would think it would be very difficult for Davis Blank Furniss to make substantial changes. Nevertheless, the company's two offices and 60 employees have been able to seamlessly transition to working from home considering the present emergency. Despite everything, life and the courts do go on – and Davis Blank Furniss uses SOS Connect to excel as a full-service law firm no matter where they work.
Joanne Mercer, the Case Management System Developer at Davis Blank Furniss, takes us through her experience of working with SOS Legal and the benefits she sees as a result of using SOS Connect.
Project highlights: Making rapid pivots possible
Makes it easy to work from home without losing ground on projects
Easy to upgrade and add capabilities
Works with other legal and productivity tools
About Davis Blank Furniss
Davis Blank Furniss has existed as a medium-sized law firm since 1877. The firm has two offices – one in Manchester City and one in Glossop – and around sixty employees. They specialise in nearly every legal vertical except for criminal law, including conveyancing, PI, commercial litigation, business, corporate, family law, and more. The firm has been a Connect user since 2014 and has made the application available to all staff.
Helping Davis Blank Furniss work during lockdown
Joanne has been working with Davis Blank Furniss for 24 years – which means that she knows what life was like before SOS Connect. Practice management systems have improved considerably since she started working – but Connect is above the rest. Its easy integration with Outlook, with Microsoft Word, with solicitor's accounts, and more means that it is possible to do most of the work of a legal firm without ever leaving the SOS mothership. At a time like this, that means multiple staff members can work on the same case using the same tools no matter where they happen to be, all while seamlessly keeping track of wider firm operations.
Connect has been vital to workers who are currently stuck in their homes. Without the ability to walk over to another person's desk and check on their work, a centralised case management system is essential. What's more, the company wouldn't be able to provide good service for clients without it. Unless everyone has access to the same set of files, responding to urgent client requests becomes a longer and more uncertain process.
Getting upgrades done in an emergency
Davis Blank Furniss were looking for several ways to enhance their product further. One of their priorities included converting existing letterhead and billhead to PDF. Using Connect, they were able to do this on an emergency basis in about a week. All staff working from home can now create a document in Connect, convert it to use official letterhead, and then add a signature. This is essential in terms of preserving continuity of operation because it means that clients won't perceive a difference in the level of service. More formally, it means that authorised individuals can obtain partner signatures for important correspondence without needing to see them in person.
While converting letterhead had been a priority for Davis Blank Furniss, it understandably didn't move to the top of the list until quite recently. What impressed the company the most was how quickly SOS was able to understand this project as an urgent priority and offer their support. In ordinary times, this project would have taken up to three weeks – but SOS was able to help us go live with it in just two days.
Benefits from using SOS Connect
Apart from its benefits in the here-and-now, Connect has accrued many benefits for our firm over the years. It has streamlined our operations, made us more efficient and responsive, and helps us maintain compliance with the GDPR. SOS has always gone above and beyond to support our firm – even when there has not been an emergency – and that's why we've stuck with them for the last six years.

My kids will not eat a single thing I cook. They act like I'm trying to poison them. What should I do?
Um, I'm actually asking you for advice. Let's try this again . . .
I asked about food, and here you are saying something about water! Even more, this is not H20 water, but pee. As in, Falstaff's urine. I don't know how to interpret this. Are you saying that only a drunk adult like Falstaff would eat what I cook? Sheesh, Shake-Ball, sometimes you just don't have my back . . .

Q: Check if a type has a property I have a custom type and I want to check if it has a certain property without having to create an object of that type.
type Person = {
    name: string,
    age: number
}

I can check doing this:
const person: Person = {name: "", age: 0}

if ("name" in person) console.log("They have a name!");

What I am trying to do though is let a user pass in a Key and Value to update the Person type but I want the type to be the source of truth for what the valid properties are.
const userInput = {key: "name", "ari"} // valid
// userInput = {key: "job", "milk man"} invalid!

if (userInput.key in Person) // update
else // handle error

A: You can use the .hasOwnProperty("") function.
const userInput = {key: "name", "ari"};
// userInput = {key: "job", "milk man"};

if (person.hasOwnProperty(userInput.key)) {
    // Update
}

else {
    // Handle Error
}
