Sandboxie is an awesome on-the-fly sandbox application for Windows! It provides you the functionality of running an application in a sandbox just by a right-click. No VMWare or VM to manage.
Basically, even if you updated your VC++ Redist manually, the download will still happen and likely fail again and again. To overcome this, Sandboxie actually had setup standalone version of their installer and it will solve the problem, but I still strongly suggest you update your VC++ Redist manually first before downloading this and running it.

Jew of the Week: Lawrence Kasdan
Larry Kasdan (Photo Credit: Gage Skidmore)
Lawrence Edward Kasdan (b. 1949) was born in Miami and raised in a small West Virginia town, where he was often picked on for being Jewish. He intended to become an English teacher, and graduated with a Master's in Education from the University of Michigan (where he met his future wife of over 40 years). Kasdan couldn't find a teaching job, however, instead winding up with a position as a copywriter. Despite finding success in the field, and winning the prestigious Clio Award for creative excellence in advertising, Kasdan didn't like his job. He wanted to become a screenwriter and pitched his work in Hollywood, initially to no avail. One of his first scripts was The Bodyguard, which was rejected some 60 times! (It would eventually make it to the big screen in 1992, starring Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston.) Kasdan finally managed to sell a script – to Steven Spielberg. After this initial success, he was hired to write the screenplay for Raiders of the Lost Ark (the first of the Indiana Jones series). Just as he finished that script, George Lucas hired him to write The Empire Strikes Back, the second of the Star Wars films. This movie went on to become the most popular of the series, and transformed Star Wars into a timeless film franchise (now worth over $30 billion). The Library of Congress chose the film for preservation because of its cultural and historical significance, and its famous "I am your father" quote has been nominated for the list of greatest American quotes of all time. Kasdan also wrote the screenplay for Return of the Jedi (the final film in the first Star Wars trilogy), and has co-written the newest film in the franchise, The Force Awakens, soon to be released. All in all, Kasdan has written, directed, or produced 19 major films, and has been nominated for four Academy Awards. He is working on one more Star Wars movie, about the early years of Han Solo, which he said will be his last.

Jew of the Week: Harrison Ford
Harrison Ford (Photo Credit: Georges Biard)
Harrison Ford (b. 1942) was born to a Russian-Jewish mother and Irish-Catholic father, but was raised in a secular home. (He would later say that "As a man I've always felt Irish, as an actor I've always felt Jewish.") He grew up a devoted Boy Scout, which later helped him immensely in his role as Indiana Jones. It was in college that Ford first became drawn to acting. In 1964 he did some acting at a local theatre, and then moved to LA. For several years he worked as an uncredited film extra, then had minor roles in a number of TV shows. To support his family during this time, Ford worked as a carpenter. His big break came in the early 70's when he was cast for a role in American Graffiti and met director George Lucas. Lucas gave Ford a couple more small roles until finally casting him as a lead in his new Star Wars film, playing the role of Han Solo. He went on to play Han Solo in both Star Wars sequels, and will reprise his role again in the latest Star Wars film, to be released next month. Meanwhile, Steven Spielberg, too, was eager to work with the rising star, and pushed to have him cast as Indiana Jones (despite Lucas' initial protests). By the time he was done starring in all three Indiana Jones films, Ford was a Hollywood superstar and a household name. Since then, he has starred in over two dozen more films, among them the classic Blade Runner (which also has a sequel on the way). Ford's films have grossed over $6 billion, making him among the highest-grossing actors in history, and he has been ranked first among the Top 100 Movie Stars of All Time. Ford is also a pilot and owns both airplanes and helicopters, which he has used for emergency rescue services. He is a member of the humanitarian organization Wings of Hope, and vice-chair of the environmental group Conservation International. He is also on the governing board of the Archaeological Institute of America. The Calponia harrisonfordi spider and the Pheidole harrisonfordi ant are named after him. Ford has also been a peace activist (particularly for Tibet, where he is now barred from travelling to), and has criticized Hollywood for its portrayal of violence in film (he even turned down the lead role in The Patriot because he felt the film was too violent). Among his many other awards, Ford has won three Golden Globes for Best Actor, and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He has also won several aviation awards and was ranked among the "Heroes of Aviation" by Flying magazine.
Fix yourself first, and then fix others.

Looking for the best Canadian forex brokers? Here you will find the latest and best brokers that accept Canadian customers. Forex trading in the country has always been a confusing experience for local traders due to a multi layered regulation system that differs depending on which region you are trading in. Thankfully, the future is starting to look brighter for the Canadian forex scene.
Regulation is virtually a necessity when choosing a broker; pick an unregulated broker and you could open yourself up to a multitude of problems including the loss of your capital and potential fraudulent activity. Therefore, even the often confusing Canadian forex regulation is better than nothing - but it's still terribly confusing.
The main regulatory body in Canada is the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (also known as IIROC). This organisation regulates the financial markets in Canada, performing reviews of current brokers, creating rules to be followed, setting minimum requirements and finally investigating any wrongdoing in the industry. This mirrors the work of regulatory bodies like the FCA or ASIC.
The problem Canada forex brokers and traders face is that there are actually three additional bodies depending on which part of Canada you live. For Toronto, financial services are governed by Ontario Securities Commission, for British Columbia it's the British Columbia Securities Commission and finally the Autorité des Marchés Financiers rules over Montreal and Quebec.
This means that not only are there rules to follow from the IIROC - but you also have to factor in rules from three additional bodies as well. This makes trading currencies in Canada difficult - not to mention there's an extremely low leverage of 1:18 available, which makes it hard for investors to really profit.On a more positive note, this also offers far more protection to investors against significant losses which is good news for new traders.
This means that more often than not, that Canadian investors are choosing to use offshore brokerage services. UK based brokers and US forex brokers actually enjoy a number of Canadian clients and there isn't such a restrictive leverage in place. However, regulation is there for an investors protection, so we still strongly recommend consider a Canadian forex broker.
Outside of regulation, it's also important to keep in mind other aspects of the trading experience. The perfect way to test any broker is by opening a demo account, which will not only give you access to the platform but all of the tools and customer service options. You will even get some practice funds to trade forex; this is also a great option for new traders looking to learn the ropes. Once you feel comfortable with your chosen broker, you can switch over to a live account which usually takes a matter of seconds.

I'm going to be honest, the first three episodes are hard to get through, at least to me, could be I'm still not used to listening to myself talk. I also can't seem to gain control of my um's and uh's. I would start with the horror episode.

Bobcat Service is a collection of manuals for all Bobcat vehicles produced before 2015.
Bobcat Service is a collection that includes complete documentation on repairing Bobcat equipment including wiring diagrams, as well as hydraulic diagrams, user manuals and service manuals, and attachment equipment documentation.
Bobcat Service - all information is presented in PDF manuals.
The Bobcat Service catalog has illustrations of complex technical repair procedures or procedures that cannot be demonstrated in the usual way.
Bobcat Service - provides a reduction in repair time and diagnostics of Bobcat equipment and are a valuable way to gain new knowledge and skills for specialists in various areas of technical maintenance of Bobcat special equipment.
The company Bobcat begins its history in the USA in the state of North Dakota in 1958. Then the company bought out the rights to a compact 3-wheel loader Keller from the Keller brothers, who subsequently successfully cooperated with Bobcat. In the same year, the first model of self-propelled loader M-60 is produced.
In 1959, Bobcat produces an improved model of the M-200 loader, which differed from its predecessor with a powerful gasoline engine of 12.9 hp.
In 1960, the company produced the world's first compact loader with a side-turn and four-wheel drive M-400. Initially, Bobcat was called Melroe. Its catchy name, it acquired later in honor of the truck called the M-440 (improved version of the M-400), which was successfully launched.
The decision to call the maneuver loader a bright and catchy name led to the birth of the name "Bobcat" - "trot". In the same year, a logo was developed - a lynx inside a double oval, and the slogan "dexterous, fast, hardy" (like the trot itself) was used to advertise forklifts. The logo for the first time decorated the loader M-440, and then all the models of Bobcat loaders.


No we never had a purebred dog but we always had a crossbred dog as a family pet.
There is so much I have always contended that a good owner/handler can compete with the professional's. I have to emphasis "GOOD" as some people are their own worst enemy when they get in the ring. As a judge there has been more than one time that I've wanted to grab the lead off an excellent looking dog that's being demolished by the exhibitor. It makes it that much harder but the judge has to look beyond the handling sometimes.
Go to China, go to St Petersburg, Russia, to have a chat with the Pope, learn to fly a plane, take a ride in a stretch limo to the lottery office to collect on my winning ticket for the big prize.
It would be that I do have a weird sense of humor some days.
I do about twenty days a year.

15 points required for a Canadian championship. As well a Junior Warrant for young Champion dogs. Also a minimum standard size for conformation rings.
I have never been a fan of Reserve Best in Show. I certainly don't think points should be allotted. I believe it takes away from the achievement of the dog, which was awarded Best in Show.
I have always been a fan of top dog rankings. This is obviously not possible for everyone to achieve, but I do think it gives the dog shows another level of competition. This doesn't mean that the real meat and potatoes of a dog show shouldn't be at the class competition of each breed.
Actually one of the clubs I belong to is trying that this year. We are going together to help defray costs and hopefully be appealing to exhibitors. In today's economy, clubs have to try to be creative financially.
Apathy and exhibitors that only think about winning ribbons. Also low entries are becoming a REAL problem. I believe the CKC board could help shows in Ontario, by simply expanding the required distance between shows on the same date to be the same as the Prairies (350 miles/ 562 km).


Hiring a university president is the most important decision a board of governors will make. It is a challenging journey marked with interviews, months of discussion, selection committee meetings and tough deliberations. Once the ideal candidate has been identified, it may seem like the difficult part is over. But, in fact, the most important work of the board lies ahead.
Beyond the hiring and selection process, the board has a responsibility to ensure that the conditions for success for a new president are in place. The first few months in the role are critical for the incoming university president and can ultimately determine whether the new president will fulfill their term or be reappointed. An estimated 20% of recent presidential appointments among Canadian universities were unsuccessful, resulting in the president either leaving before the end of the first term or failing to meet the expectations and objectives set out for them. A deliberate onboarding strategy mitigates the risks associated with a change in leadership and improves the odds of the president's and the university's success.
There is often a perception that leaders selected through a rigourous process have enough experience to know what to do once they assume the new position. While most new presidents have certainly gone through a rigorous interview process, and careful consideration has been exercised in selecting the right candidate for the institution, there is still an adjustment period when taking on a new leadership position. Factors like organizational culture, traditions and norms are unique to each institution and take some getting used to for even the most seasoned leader. In fact, new leaders typically demonstrate the ability to do the job but where they stumble is on some of the softer aspects of the role. Some common missteps include underestimating the influence of certain people or groups, misinterpreting the "small p" politics, making incorrect assumptions about change readiness or demonstrating leadership behaviors that do not align with the cultural norms of the institution.
What are the key strategic role objectives or outcomes that the president is expected to focus on in their first 12 to 18 months in the position? The board will have insight into the relative priorities amongst the many objectives set out for the new president. Providing clarity in terms of both what the president is expected to accomplish in the first part of their term, and the evidence of success that the board will look to for assurance that the president is on the right track, removes the risks of goal misalignment.
What are the most important leadership behaviours required for success as the president? Each university has its own culture and, depending on where the university is in its lifecycle, certain leadership behaviours will be more effective during a transition in leadership. For example, is it best to focus on collegiality or external relationship building? By offering explicit recommendations, the board provides the president a solid touchstone for planning an effective approach and a basis for soliciting and receiving feedback.
What are the key relationships the president will need to seek out and cultivate? This includes relevant stakeholders, but it is also helpful to define key opinion influencers and decision makers within the university's internal and external communities. The board should establish a network of advisors, mentors and coaches to support the new president in their onboarding process. This can include board members, external advisors, vice presidents and deans, community leaders and professional executive coaches. The former president or retired university presidents from other institutions should also be considered as they have their own experiences to share. Being the president can be a lonely and demanding job and it requires the support of the entire university. It is important to help the new president to figure out whom to lean on for advice and support.
In addition to defining the key strategic objectives, leadership behaviours and key relationships for the new president, the most important part of an onboarding plan is feedback. Universities often rely on annual compensation discussions or even the mid-term review of the president as the only formal opportunities to provide feedback. However, a proactive approach to provide direct feedback earlier in the process can avoid issues before they arise. Either the board chair or the chair of the HR committee of the board should assume primary responsibility for providing regular feedback to the president on their performance on the first three areas outlined in the onboarding plan. Ideally, one or two of the university's vice presidents might also be engaged to provide feedback from the 'inside perspective'. We have found that the act of pre-setting these discussions removes some of the stigma associated with giving feedback and encourages ongoing dialogue.
Don't leave the first year of your new president's term to chance. By having an onboarding strategy in place, universities can help to mitigate costly and disruptive turnover. Be deliberate about creating the conditions for success, and providing support and feedback. The sooner the new president can hit their stride in their new role, the sooner they can start making the positive impact that you expect.
This white paper represents the collective opinions expressed during a series of academic roundtable discussions held in 2012, hosted by Anna Stuart, Dr. Ross Paul, former president of Laurentian and Windsor Universities, and, Dr. Peter George, president emeritus of McMaster University.


It's peak wedding season which makes it a really busy time for me, so it's been a LONG time since I blogged, but having tried two new products this week it seemed like the opportune time to get typing. So here's my review of two lovely Bourjous products – their Happy Light foundation and Mega Liner.
I love Bourjois foundations and this one definitely didn't disappoint.
The liquid formula is light and smooth, making it very easy to apply either with a brush or fingers. I apply using a Real Techniques face brush and buff with a stippling brush to get the best coverage.
I think the formula would be great for dry skin, as it would definitely hydrate it and provide a dewy glow, or combination skin (like mine, I have an oily T-zone). In my opinion, I don't think those with really oily skin would find this to be their perfect product – I just don't think the formula will mattify your skin or give you the coverage or last you'd be looking for – but you'd need to try it yourself to see and perhaps with the right oil free primer and finishing powder it could work for you.
For more mature skins, I think this would be the perfect foundation – and would even mix well with a moisturiser if you wanted a light coverage.
The coverage is medium – it's definitely more than a light foundation or a BB cream/tinted moisturiser, but I wouldn't call this full coverage. You can definitely build the coverage though – and if you want to do this, I'd recommend applying a layer, doing your other makeup (eyeshadow, liner etc), then applying another layer on top & blending together.
Does it last? Well I put my makeup on about 7 in the morning, go on busy commuter trains and spend my day in a hot studio and when I wore it last week it still looked good in the evening. That said I wore it with a primer (Mac) and finished it in my T-zone with a loose powder (Clinique).
I should also mention that this does not have SPF (hooray). I don't like SPF in a foundation because if you're enjoying life – parties, nights out, celebrations, and get your photo taken, SPF is not camera flash friendly and you will look a bit cakey & ghostly. That said, this is not a product you want to be wearing on holiday or in the sunshine (go for something with SPF like a BB or Tinted Moisturiser).
So my verdict: If you love foundation that gives you medium coverage and a natural luminous glow, then definitely give this a try. For £11 a bottle, you can't go wrong!
This is a big deal for me, because it takes a lot for me to use anything other than Bobbi Brown Gel Liner (it's the best!) But when I'm in a rush to get out the door and I'm still half asleep, carefully swirling a brush into the little gel pot is not how I want to spend my time – I want speed.
Enter this little gem, which I'd say is Bourjois' answer to the eyeliner that Benefit recently brought out (their Push-Up Liner) as it is an angled brush.
It's a liquid formula that is like a pen, with the pen tip being angled. It's great for creating simple eyeliner flicks and cat-eye style makeup and I found it so easy and quick to apply.
I apply this with my eyes open so that I can get it very close to my lash line. The angled brush makes it easy to get the desired flick – just simply angle it pointing up to where your brow line ends and press to get a guide line.
As it's liquid, I'd recommend dusting a light loose powder over your eyelids before applying this so you don't get any smudge or transfer when you apply.
This was on my eyes for a good 11 hours before I took it off – and this was on a warm day and when I hadn't spent a lot of time doing my makeup – so it's good last and perfect for day-to-day wear.
You get an intense black line, so if you like softer, more subtle eyeliner this isn't for you.
Verdict – if you like classic eyeliner flicks and want a liquid liner that's easy to apply without spending loads, then this product is for you.

Research Paper Example: Religious Significance of Cows in Buddhism and Hinduism
Sewanee University of the South
Cows although considered factory farmed food in most countries are vital, sacred part of Buddhism and Hinduism in India because they have always been an important resource to the people of India and has an approximately 30% of the worlds cattle. In India, cows are everywhere. Because of the sacredness and importance attached to cows, they are allowed to ramble around unharmed, and they are used to the traffic and the ways of the city. There exist about 26 different distinct breeds of cows that are bred by Indians. For a long time now cows have been predominantly proclaimed sacred to Hindus and worshipped as a mother figure associated with the god Krishna of ancient times. Cows have increasingly become a political partys tool, a rallying cry and an electioneering code word for both Indian nationalists and their core political opponents. Unlike in the west, where cows are seen as walking hamburgers in Indian states cows are treated with sincere respect and uttermost reverence (Scott 86).
In Hinduism, cows are respected and held in high esteem. One of the reason is linked to the usefulness and the calm nature of cows. Hindus rely on cows as a source dairy products, for tiling their lands and even source fuel and fertilizer and disinfectants for their homes from their dung. Cows are a source of milk, butter, yogurt, ghee, cream, and cheese. According to Indians, milk from cows refines people. Hindu scriptures have always considered milk as the highest form of sattvic food among Indians. For these reasons, cows are viewed as a caretaker or a parental figure. The Indian goddess is a symbolic representation of a cow (Capper 427-441).
Secondly, Hindus attach a lot of sacredness to cows due to their gentle nature. Although their big size cows are not threatening, they roam around harmlessly. Cows are universal, harmless and this reinforces the Hindu teachings of how people should not harm any animals as they are sacred and calm. Honoring cows instigates in people the virtues of gentleness, receptivity, tolerance and calmness and further connectedness to nature. To the Indians, cows represent butter and (ghee) which indicates strength, and it is used for preparing religious foods in Indian ceremonies. Cows are considered very strong animals. In most Indian states consumption of beef is illegal this is done to celebrate cows as important objects in the society. More so, cows are sacred to Indians since they are a source of several benefits without asking for anything in return.
Refined butter (ghee) a product of a cows milk is used for the highest prayers in Hindu religion. It is used in fire worship (Yajna). The docility and submissive nature of a cow represents a fundamental virtue of Hinduism ahimsa that symbolizes non-injury. To the Hindus, cows represent motherliness, self-sacrifice, fortitude, strength, and self-worth. These positive attributes attached to the nature of cows inspires inalienable virtues among Indians (Sarma 59).
Indians attach importance to all living things. In Hindu religion, a cow symbolizes all other creatures. It is a representative and a sustainer of life. They are sacred to Hindus as they represent a nourisher and an endless giver who is ever non-demanding. A cow is more of a representation of grace and abundance to the Hindu religion. To the Hindu, cows represent a happy earthly life.

JM Family Enterprises has employee benefits and amenities that are the envy of many.
It has a Deerfield Beach headquarters that provides day care, a health clinic and more to workers.
And it is consistently featured in Fortune's "100 Best Companies to Work For" rankings.
But that's not good enough — not for the automotive giant built by entrepreneur Jim Moran under the philosophy that employees are a company's most important asset. That's why the private company is embarking on a grand-scale expansion project intended to further its mission, cater to its workers and attract new ones.
Plans include three new office buildings; a two-story dining hall; 20,000-square-foot sports complex; 900-vehicle parking garage; and 55,000-square-foot conference and training center.
The idea is to keep elements of the iconic campus while making it more pedestrian-friendly, with green spaces where employees can work and a sports complex for fitness.
One reason JM Family said it is redesigning its campus is to appeal to younger generations of workers. The company collaborated with its 1,700 workers in Deerfield Beach on its plans for the updated campus.
A survey was sent out asking workers about the type of food they want in the cafeteria, seating in dining rooms, technology in their workspaces, types of fitness classes and other choices. JM Family got more than 3,000 comments from more than 600 workers who asked for open spaces as well as private ones for meetings, the ability to work in multiple spaces on campus, more natural light and sit/stand desks, according to spokeswoman Christie Caliendo.
Deerfield Beach has been the home of JM Family's headquarters since 1981. The private company in automotive sales, finance and service had more than $15 billion in revenues in 2017 and 4,200 employees across the country.
"This is a major project, a huge investment in the state, county and this city," said Deerfield Beach Mayor Bill Ganz.
He said JM Family is an example of "what it means to be a good corporate citizen" through both its financial support of the community and volunteerism.
The campus is being renovated while the company is still operating off Hillsboro Boulevard and Jim Moran Boulevard — named after the company founder who died in 2007 at age 88.
The campus' original architecture was a nod to its Japanese business ties, as the exclusive distributor of Toyotas in the southeastern United States in 1968. That's when Moran brought his business to South Florida from Chicago.
Jacksonville architect Robert Broward, an apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wright, designed the campus' master plan.
For the renovation and expansion, JM Family has hired Kaufman Lynn Construction of Delray Beach, which is working with PGAL Architects of Boca Raton.
Frank White, president of Kaufman Lynn, said the project is the largest the firm has undertaken in which employees remaining at the site during the construction process. After new buildings are constructed on the east side of the campus near Interstate 95, workers will be transferred to existing buildings while other structures are knocked down and new ones are built.
White said Kaufman Lynn has tackled such projects before, for example in schools where the students have remained on campus. Working around people takes special planning and projects can take longer to finish.

Viral Image by Misan Harriman auctioned at Sotherby's London to benefit the diversity of stem cell donor register
by Dr Marina Nani
The image captured by Misan Harriman at Black Lives Matter London Protest went viral. Auctioned by Sotherby's will be sold to benefit Anthony Nolan Charity and their important work to increase the diversity of the stem cell donor register
This powerful photograph was shot by British photographer @misanharriman on the streets of London during the Black Lives Matter protests in June. In one split second, Harriman captured the then anonymous England U21s hockey player @darcy.bourne, looking directly into the lens and holding a home-made sign. At that very moment, a protestor punched their hand in the air, and the result was a photograph which went viral across the globe. Hailed as 'the voice that was missing' by British Vogue's @edward_enninful, Harriman has since become the first Black male photographer to shoot the cover of @britishvogue in its 104-year history. This is the first time any of Harriman's works have gone up for sale, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a piece by one of the most important photographers working today. An icon of a generation, 'Why is Ending Racism a Debate?' will hit Sotheby's rostrum this October in Harriman's auction debut, proceeds from which will benefit blood cancer charity @anthonynolancharity and their vital work to diversify the stem cell donor register. Visit our #London galleries to see the work up-close between 11-14 October. #WhyIsEndingRacismADebate #MisanHarriman #SothebysPhotographs #AnthonyNolan #vogue
A post shared by Sotheby's (@sothebys) on Oct 1, 2020 at 5:57am PDT
WHY IS ENDING RACISM A DEBATE? Image went viral
Captured outside the US embassy in London, this legendary shot by Misan Harriman shows the 18-year old England U21s hockey player Darcy Bourne, who stood with the oversized home-made sign which she had painted just moments before. Harriman recalled how he spotted his subject standing on the pavement, before asking her to step into the road and turn to face him. At that very moment, a protester shot their fist in the air behind Bourne, and the result was magic: an image which has defined a generation.
I'd written my sign moments before; the paint was still wet when the photo was taken. I wrote that question because I'm in disbelief every day that we still have to fight for equality, and I wanted to remind people of the purpose of the movement. I feel so lucky that I met Misan, and that this photo went viral, because it has given me a platform that I can use to try and make a difference. When Martin Luther king III posted the image, I was in complete shock, because I have always looked up to him and his father's work in the human rights movement, and it meant the world to me that he shared this photo. Misan's talent is undeniable; he consistently displays the raw emotions of the people, shining a light on us and the power of the movement. He is an incredible man who I can now call a good friend. I have supported and believed in the Anthony Nolan Charity for several years now, so I am glad I can be involved with such an important organisation and that this image will be sold to support it.– Darcy Bourne
Misan Harriman's debut at Sotherby's London
It was my wife who made me pick up a camera a few years back but never in my wildest dreams did I envision that one day I'd capture such a pivotal moment in our history. I hadn't met Darcy, the subject here, before taking this picture but I was immediately struck by her – there's an undeniable purpose and passion in her expression. In one split second, I captured a young woman fighting for her future, holding up what is a seemingly simple question, a question I hope the next generation won't need to ask. It's true that an image can say a thousand words, and it's an incredible honour that my photograph has been perceived by many as the voice of the moment." It is with great pride that I offer this work, my first ever print, to be sold at Sotheby's in order to raise much needed funds for Anthony Nolan. This will help diversify the donor register which will, in turn, save lives.– Misan Harriman

Misan Harriman's image- auctioned at Sotherby's London to benefit the diversity of stem cell donor register
We are very grateful to Misan and to Sotheby's for offering this work to benefit Anthony Nolan. We know that a person's stem cell match is most likely to come from someone with the same ethnic background as them, and currently only 20% of stem cell transplant patients who are Black or have mixed Black heritage receive a match from an unrelated donor. Therefore, increasing the diversity of the UK stem cell register is vital, and it is important that we continue to find the best way possible to work with young people from different communities. If you are between the ages of 16-30 and in good health, you can join the Anthony Nolan register at www.anthonynolan.org/join."- HENNY BRAUND, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF ANTHONY NOLAN

Neurulation is the process where components of the post-gastrulation embryo transform to create the future nervous system.
Following gastrulation, surface ectoderm at the embryos periphery is destined to generate skin components whereas more centrally located tissue, the neural ectoderm will produce the spinal cord and brain.
Protein signals cause this midline ectoderm to thicken and form the neural plate beneath which is a condensed rod of mesodermal cells known as the notochord. The center of the plate then affixes to this underlying structure.
Initially, notochord attached cells resemble columns. However, over time, they can tort into wedges, which, along with other factors causes the entire neural plate to bend upwards and inwards as if on a hinge. Concurrently, the plates edges become more prominent, generating structures called neural folds.
Eventually, two additional hinges arise. One beneath each neural fold and both fastened to the surface ectoderm causing the plates edges to turn inwards.
During this process of primary neurulation, the neural folds continue to move towards one another and ultimately touch, core less and detach from the embedding surface ectoderm. The result is a hollow ectoderm derived cylinder named the neural tube, which, depending on it's embryonic location will generate either the spinal cord or brain.
Neurulation is the embryological process which forms the precursors of the central nervous system and occurs after gastrulation has established the three primary cell layers of the embryo: ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. In humans, the majority of this system is formed via primary neurulation, in which the central portion of the ectoderm—originally appearing as a flat sheet of cells—folds upwards and inwards, sealing off to form a hollow neural tube. As development proceeds, the anterior portion of the neural tube will give rise to the brain, with the rest forming the spinal cord.
Neurulation and the Neural Crest
The central portion of the ectoderm that bends to generate the neural tube is aptly called the neural ectoderm, while the areas that flank it—along the periphery of the embryo—are the surface ectoderm. However, at the junction of the neural and surface ectoderm lies another population of cells, called the neural crest. As the neural folds (the edges of the elevating neural tube) begin to appear, neural crest cells (NCCs) can be visualized in their tips through the expression of characteristic markers, like the Pax7 transcription factor. As development proceeds and the neural folds fuse, NCCs can be observed either in the top-most portion of the neural tube or migrating along this structure's sides towards lower regions of the embryo. To migrate, NCCs downregulate specific adhesive proteins, which allows them to detach from the other cells in the neural tube. Importantly, NCCs travel throughout the embryo, populating different regions to generate a variety of tissue types, including elements of the peripheral nervous system (like the ganglia of the intestines).
Primary vs. Secondary Neurulation
While primary neurulation forms most of the central nervous system in humans, a small area of the posterior spinal cord results from a distinct process called secondary neurulation. In this region, rather than having three distinct cell sheets, the embryo contains a mixture of loosely-packed cells covered by a thin layer of ectoderm. Some of these "loose" cells condense to generate a rod-like structure called the medullary or neural cord. This cord eventually hollows out, and merges with the more anterior primary neural tube, forming a continuous structure. Although secondary neurulation plays a relatively minor role in the formation of the human central nervous system, defects in this process can still have developmental consequences, such as certain types of spina bifida.

The 25 best Milwaukee Record stories of 2015
Milwaukee Record launched way, way back in April of 2014. That's notable for two reasons: 1. Holy shit, we've made it 20 months! and 2. Twenty-fifteen was our first full calendar year of being a living, breathing website. Neat!
And what a year it was. From seeing 2 Live Crew at a strip club to crashing Scott Walker's ill-fated presidential announcement, from dropping by The Morning Blend to eating at every Milwaukee Taco Bell in eight hours, and from hanging out with the mayor of West Allis to, yes, waiting five hours to get our picture taken with 50 Cent, 2015 was filled with laughs, tears, and enough "adventure journalism" to last a lifetime. Not to toot our own official Milwaukee Record horn (available soon from our merch store), but whittling down the number of our favorite stories to 25 proved surprisingly difficult. But whittle we did. So, without further ado, here are the 25 best Milwaukee Record stories of 2015.
(Oh, one further ado: None of this would have been possible without the incredible support of our many, many incredible ad partners and sponsors, both the ones that have been with us since the beginning and the ones that lent their support this year. And, of course, a huge thanks to you, our readers. Thank you, thank you, thank you.)
"The longest brunch: Bottoming out on bottomless mimosas" (January 13)
"If we didn't already feel bad about pushing a very, very good restaurant's deal too far (even if it was a freezing Tuesday during an otherwise dead day shift), I would've questioned Ashley's use of the word 'bottomless,' or simply ponied up $6 to get to number 10. But, really, I was relieved for it to be over. Leanner told us nobody had ever stayed this long before…and that Ashley's all-you-can-drink policy was going to be changed." [Tyler Maas]
"Messed up: The short, troubled history of Space Heater" (February 10)
"'I had a plan to go home after the show and just end it…it's terrible,' Tony later says. 'That day I bought two bottles of alcohol, because fuck it, right? So we're making our set list, and I started crying. I thought, I'll make this show a good one, but during the show I couldn't think about the songs or anything and I ended up not really playing the show and just standing there in self-loathing because I forgot the bass lines to songs that I wrote. It made me feel awful.' That awful feeling turns to drunken rage and Tony takes his $300 bass guitar and smashes it repeatedly against the basement wall of Scarn Manor, destroying it." [Tea Krulos]
"I saw 2 Live Crew at a strip club in 2015" (March 3)
"During verses belonging to the long-since-departed Luther Campbell, Marquis just let the CD play and either wandered aimlessly around the stage or drank water. Las Vegas style showmanship, it was not. However, the 50-something rapper pulled out the big guns during 2 Live Crew's biggest song, repeatedly screaming 'Me So Horny' off-key and a fraction of a second too late. Having worked himself into a lather with that inexplicable hit and the six songs he'd done prior, Brother Marquis showed a more sensitive side of 2 Live Crew. Kidding again, the deaf-guy yelled portions of 'We Want Some Pussy' and abruptly walked off the stage he'd taken less than 20 minutes prior." [TM]
"I was a guest on The Morning Blend and I feel pretty good about that" (April 24)
"But never mind that, because moments later, in walked Ogle (shorter than I expected) and Fay (taller than I expected). Actually, 'walked' wouldn't be the right word—'exploded' would be more like it. Laughing, hooting, and hollering, like they had just downed three Bloody Marys each and stepped off a cruise ship, they instantly lit up the already lit-up studio. 'Hi, Matt!' exclaimed Fay as she walked by. I was beside myself." [Matt Wild]
"Taco Tuesday of Reckoning: I ate at every Milwaukee Taco Bell in 8 hours" (May 14)
"With every arduous and grease-coated bite, I said a silent goodbye to a milestone from my (potential) child's life that I'd surely miss. 'Happy, graduation, little guy or girl,' I lamented internally with every bubbling, viscous morsel I reluctantly placed in my maw. I broke my months-long soda fast in attempt to dull the taste with a small Baja Blast…which I soon found had a black speck in it. Duffy's 'Mercy' blared in the background. I echoed her cry with each bite. This had finally become difficult." [TM]
"I hung out with the mayor of West Allis" (June 2)
"Having just decided my tour would have a nightlife focus, we ambled on to Walleye's Saloon a few blocks away. Our entrance was welcomed by a wave of awful nu metal (the first of many, many encounters we'd face on this excursion) and what looked to be a bar fight percolating between two hammered 20-somethings (that ultimately wouldn't occur). The combination of the two and the nice weather drove us and our $3 pints out to the rear patio, where we met a nice woman named Jody and played two games of horseshoes. Mayor Devine (right) and I won both games. One of Bart's (left) horseshoes took a crazy bounce and nailed me in the kneecap as Keith Sweat's 'Twisted' played on the patio speakers. Upon learning more about her opponents, Jody said, 'I didn't even know West Allis had a mayor.' Beyond the horseshoe hobbling, this was probably the highlight of the night." [TM]
"I finally saw The Rocky Horror Picture Show with a live cast at the Oriental Theater" (June 11)
"So, on a fateful Saturday night, following a few beers at the aforementioned Landmark, we found ourselves standing in line outside the Oriental with a bunch of theater kids dressed in fishnets. Go figure. It wasn't long before a cast member approached us. Was this our first time? Yes, yes it was. 'VIRGINS!' he cried, whipping out a marker and branding our faces with red 'V's. For the rest of the night, we were marked, our scarlet letters acting in the exact way Hester Prynne's didn't. 'Look for me before the movie,' our new friend said. 'You'll be on my team for the virgin games!' Erin and I exchanged a glance. We stepped inside. [MW]
"In search of Milwaukee's most authentic Mexican restaurants" (June 16)
"Still there is valor in the hunt, the one for the genuine article. So why simply settle for Bel Air and their two-hour waits over and over? How could a recent Shepherd Express Readers Poll show Qdoba and Chipotle as runners-up for Milwaukee's 'best'? Sure, Café Corazon is fresh and fine, and yes, we too love Guanajuato more than our cholesterol test says is healthy. But why be placated when there's such a wealth of tacos, tortas, tripas, tamales, empanadas, sincronizadas, sopas, and sesos well beyond the usual Milwaukee run of familiar joints? So we set out to create a culinary roadmap, pointing west and south, and as far away as possible from the processed cheddar, the salted glasses, the lettuce and tomato taco fillings, and the over-publicized parrillada of gringo-land Mexican." [Todd Lazarski]
"Review: Taped Music at JoJo's Martini Lounge (Summerfest)" (June 25)
"I eased into the idea that people might not show up. After all, it was opening day and, like, actual live music would be starting elsewhere very soon. Suddenly, a guy wearing all orange stepped out on stage and played a modern cover of the unmistakable Michael Jackson tune. He introduced himself to the audience (me) as Flux and said, 'It's all about having a good time. I do music videos! It's all a big party.' I'll be the judge of that. I've attended upwards of five parties in my life, so I'd like to think I know a rager when I see one." [TM]
"Hating Summerfest, loving Summerfest" (June 29)
"Sometimes you hate Summerfest. Sometimes you get to the grounds on a late Sunday afternoon and note that there are more people waiting to see Paris Hilton in four hours than there were to see Public Enemy all of Thursday night. You make the requisite Summerfest lap and see nothing but doofuses smoking cigars and wearing PornHub T-shirts. You're not in the mood for a beer, so you walk to JoJo's Martini Lounge and get a fruity cocktail, which is $11. A cover band at JoJo's is doing Taylor Swift's 'Blank Space.' Somewhere in the distance, another cover band is limping through a tepid Queen medley. You want to go home." [MW]
"We went to Scott Walker's presidential announcement and this is what we saw" (July 14)
"The Waukesha County Fair opens its gates tomorrow, and similar to how the Stones warmed up the Summerfest grounds, Scott Walker—now an official 2016 presidential candidate—drew the masses to the fairground's Waukesha County Expo Center Monday night. Described by CNN as a 'Republican enclave just outside of Milwaukee,' Waukesha hosted thousands of Walker supporters who waited for hours in the hot, humid weather for a seat. 'Enjoy this momentous occasion,' an elderly volunteer told us as she fastened our entry wristbands." [Tea Krulos, Wendy Schreier]
"I tented out inside Miller Park and it was fun and weird" (July 28)
"Oh, and the tour also included a trip to the holiest of holy Miller Park locations: Uecker's booth. Yes, we were allowed inside Mr. Baseball's (and Joe Block's) inner sanctum, which was smaller and less covered in Mr. Belvedere paraphernalia than I expected. Nevertheless, I tried in vain to contain myself as Wayne talked about Ueck's broadcasting career (Nearly at the same level as Vin Scully and Mel Allen? Surely you jest, Wayne.) and tried to not get weirded out by the middle-aged woman standing next to me, who looked suspiciously like the middle-aged woman who stalked Bob Uecker a few years back. Now, I'm not saying it was her (her name tag didn't match up, for one), but she did look like a slightly older version of that woman's mug shot." [MW]
"The 15 best things my 14-year-old cousin said at Vans Warped Tour yesterday" (July 29)
"6. On how every booth is made to appeal to teens, and meant to sell things to teens: 'I don't think about how they're marketing to me directly. Because those people need to make money, too. Who cares how they get their money? Exploit teens!'" [Andrew Winistorfer]
"50 Cent vodka signing at Oak Creek Woodman's: A minute-by-minute recap" (July 30)
"7:40 p.m. – It all comes down to this. I'm next in line. Suddenly, I'm hustled in front of the backdrop. There he is. 50 Cent. At the Oak Creek Woodman's. He looks tired and bored. He looks like 50 Cent. I stand next to him with my bottle. I struggle for something to say. 'Thanks for coming to Oak Creek!' is all I can muster. He says something—well, 'mutters something' might be more accurate. 'Hey.' A woman takes a picture. A man leads me away. My encounter with 50 Cent—an encounter I've been waiting almost five hours for—is over in no more than three seconds." [MW]
"I floated in a sensory deprivation tank at Float Milwaukee and, well, it was something" (September 1)
"That's when it hits me: This tank is quiet. Really quiet. To paraphrase Douglas Adams, you just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly quiet it is. There's nothing. Absolutely nothing. In fact, when I occasionally glance to the left and right I can hear the sound of my eyes moving in my skull. This experience is almost worth the price of admission alone. Imagine your eyes as heavy wooden marbles slowly rolling around in a heavy wooden box and you'll get the general idea of what it sounds like. It's wonderfully weird and vaguely unsettling." [MW]
"Opening AND closing Wolski's: A supposedly fun thing we'll never do again" (September 15)
"This is the worst that I feel all day. Waist deep in High Life, I am left to contemplate the meaning of this, and the meaning of life as we know it. Why am I doing this? Why did I think this was a good idea? Anyone willing to spend 14.5 hours in the beautiful cave that is Wolski's Tavern with me on one of the last days of summer is worth having in my life. Friendships like this are hard to come by. I'll cheers to that. But hey, at this point I'll cheers to most anything." [Rachel Olson, Mark Flehmer, Danielle Dahl]
"I climbed to the top of City Hall and it was awesome and kind of terrifying" (September 17)
"I'm climbing to the top of Milwaukee City Hall and there's only one thing on my mind: death. Death, death, death. Not 'lose-my-balance-and-plummet-to-Earth' death, though there's that, too. Measuring 353 feet tall (393 if you count the flagpole on top), the downtown beacon may not look like much from the street, but try winding your way up it via a sparse spiral staircase on a hot summer day. My palms are sweating. One hand is white-knuckling the staircase while the other is death-gripping the iPhone I'm using to record the running commentary between my tour guide, Roger Davidson, and Doors Open Milwaukee program manager Amy Grau, who has arranged today's excursion. My knees are somewhere between 'shaky' and 'buckling.' I'm thinking about calling it quits." [MW]
"Return to Haunchyville" (September 22)
"Five years ago this past June, I made a trek to Haunchyville and wrote about it for the now-defunct A.V. Club Milwaukee. I found…well, something. Not a bustling burg of pissed-off circus folk hell bent on keeping outsiders away, and not a crumbling community of gone-to-pot loners and their grizzled caretaker. Instead, I found a woodsy and secluded section of suburban acreage littered with countless NO TRESPASSING and KEEP OUT signs. Oh, and some creepy-ass stone huts." [MW]
"I went to Chicago to (try to) get drunk at Taco Bell" (September 29)
"Though I made a treacherous, Andy DuFresne-like crawl through a figurative sewer of refried beans, Fire Sauce, and inorganic beef substitute only a few months ago, the recent announcement that a Taco Bell in Chicago was the first in the world to offer alcohol was a signal from above…or below (?) that my work was not done. I had to temporarily return to the prison of my worst self. Like a bank robber throwing caution to the wind for one last score or the grizzled veteran police detective—clearly too old for this shit—postponing his retirement to put away one more perp, I had no choice but to do this. I had to get drunk at a Taco Bell." [TM]
"A Friday on the 'Fruit Loop': A straight man's gay bar crawl" (October 1)
"As Hot Tyler, Jacob, and I looked at the screen (and Jak looked away), DJ scrolled through a photo album that showed him being tortured, having a rope tied around his balls yanked, being suffocated by…other guys in pretty graphic ways, and enough dick pics to make Brett Favre blush. As DJ scrolled on, Jacob rattled off different kinks and asked whether Mister Harbor Room was into them. Eventually, Jacob asked about piss play. 'I love water sports,' DJ said. 'If any of you have to go, just let me know.' Now on my sixth drink in three hours, I never had to pee less in my life. 'Is there anything you say "no" to?' Jacob asked, as the list grew exceedingly more intense. 'Women,' DJ quipped. Around then, Jak handed me my half-full pint and told me to chug because we were leaving immediately. As I was finishing, Jacob was yanking a leather strap attached to DJ's testicles, hard." [TM]
"Video: We conduct a blind taste test to find the least terrible Wisconsin-made pumpkin beer" (October 20)
"All beers were ranked on a scale of 1-5 on four criteria: pumpkin-ness, level of spice, drinkability, and overall taste. The results were highly unscientific and highly unexpected (math started to go out the window around beer number five), but amusing nonetheless. At one point, Tyler creeps everyone out by talking about a beer's 'mouth feel.' Oh, and there are plenty of awful/wonderful puns." [Matt Wild, Tyler Maas, Maggie Iken, Cal Roach, Rachel Seis]
"I tried (and utterly failed) Zaffiro's first 'Big Z Challenge'" (November 3)
"By the 30-minute mark, I had 28 slices down. By this point, I came to terms with the fact I wouldn't be finishing, but I wanted to make my performance in this absolutely shameful endeavor the least embarrassing I possibly could. But first I needed a break, or a 'Za-bbatical' if you will. I sipped my third pint of water and strolled around the restaurant (that was now thankfully devoid of Mequon milfs) in a futile effort to collect myself and find a second wind that would not blow my way. After a few minutes, I returned to the booth, but remained standing as I meekly ate laughably small bites of jalapeno and mushroom pizza. Pepperoni was dead to me now. The last two-plus pieces were incredibly difficult. My mouth watered—in the puke preparation way, not out of hunger—as I nibbled my way towards a goal that, at 63 minutes, was decidedly out of reach." [TM]
"Are there really anti-Semitic messages hidden in a Shorewood sculpture?" (November 13)
"To my eyes, there are plenty of problems with the 'hidden messages.' For one, seeing 'Bad' requires you to lose the 'Z' between the 'B' and the 'A.' And the 'P' in 'Cheap' isn't a 'P' at all, but a connected 'N' and 'D.' And you need to do some serious spacial gymnastics if you want to see 'Dead.' With that logic, you can see 'Fry Bad Jew' if you want, or, you know, 'Frqb Zeanp.'" [MW]
"Better vape than never: One man's epic pre-ban e-cig smoke sesh" (November 19)
"I meekly approached the counter where an incredibly friendly middle-aged guy named Bill helped me navigate the intimidating abundance of e-cig implements and the dozens of flavors, including everything from fruit flavors to a bunch of animals with the 'Blood' suffix, traditional tobacco scents, and more. The guidance from Bill—who told me he was a massive smoker for more than 30 years before weening himself off completely thanks to e-cigs in the last four years—helped me settle on the cheapest cig they had ($24) and a vial of Banana Nut Bread vaping juice ($12) that purportedly yields the same amount of puffs as two cartons of traditional grandpa cigarettes." [TM]
"Malled by bears: A review of the Leonard Bearstein Symphony Orchestra at the Shops of Grand Avenue" (December 8)
"In all, the Leonard Bearstein Symphony Orchestra plays the Christmas songs you know. For any performer, this is no great surprise, with the average age of the most frequently played holiday songs hovering around 61 years, according to the December issue of Harper's. Compared with the brand new, slick, and highly processed Homo Sapien Christmas songs pumping through the TJ Maxx on the other end of the mall, who can blame Leonard and his fellow Ursus for sticking with the classics? As the plugged-in maestro put it in a transcendent bit of banter: 'Who knows where music really comes from?'" [Justin Kern]

Music, culture, gentle sarcasm.


My mother, from an early age, put forth great effort to develop my intellect. When I was barely five years old she read Homer's Iliad to me outloud prior to my naptime in the afternoons. The Winnie the Pooh stories—which as every parent knows are a great way to develop imagination, pathos, and ethos all at the same time—were another favorite, and she read them all to me. She encouraged me to write—initially resulting in a series of science fiction stories when I was around the age of six. My father encouraged me by recommending books to read from his library—especially military history. He had a very substantial collection and it included , among others, all of Churchill's World War Two series, Shelby Foote's and Bruce Catton's works on the Civil War, and the complete set of S.E. Morison's history of the U.S. Navy in World War II. He also had both West Point Atlases of American Wars. In high school Mr. Patrick Kennedy, my history instructor, inspired and encouraged me. T. Harry Williams and Karl Roider, historians at Louisiana State University, further developed my budding fascination with in military history, both as a freshman at LSU and earlier when I audited Professor Williams' class as a 5th grader with my mother, who was taking his Civil War course. In graduate school, hands down, it was Donald Mrozek of Kansas State University, a genius at bringing out the best in others. Finally, sharing an office and becoming friends with Jonathan M. House—whose sage advice on my own work and mastery of campaigns on the Eastern Front in World War II—was one of the most serendipitous and fortunate things to ever happen to me intellectually.
I recommend The Gospel of John. Why? It is an explanation of strategy by example. John starts out with logos—the word. From there he builds a case for one of the greatest strategies of all time. He does not present a chronological approach, but rather an intimate, anecdotal method that relies on Christ's testimony and behavior above all. It highlights the fundamental soundness of a Socratic (or rather divine) process while at the same time leverages the received wisdom (e.g., Isaiah) familiar to both illiterate and literate audiences alike in his day (and ours).
The bulk of the Gospel focuses on the three-year campaign of Christ in declaring the advent of the kingdom of heaven. It is an ideal book to learn about how to execute strategy at the individual, organizational/local, as well as institutional/tribal/national level, all at the same time. A high point of all these "levels of analysis" coming together with particular meaning and power can be found in John's narration of Christ's meeting with the Samaritan woman at the well (John, chapter 4). He engages with her on the personal level. He, is also aware his words will be reproduced for a much larger audience—which in turn means he must have retold the event to his followers, or the woman did, or both. Thus Christ messages to the individual, group, and posterity all with one blow, one real life parable we might say. Later Jesus emphasizes the universality of his message of righteous behavior with an actual parable about a Samaritan (a sect at odds with the Sanhedrin in power in Jerusalem, and thus with most Jews of that time period). The book also establishes a clear end state, an eternal steady state, toward which the strategy aims and has that final component of inspiration that every effective strategy must have.
"...it solves nothing, but may clear up the ideas of one or two people, a little."

Escape to the Sunshine Coast for a memorable adventure of epic proportions. This tiny little hut, known as the Tin Hat Cabin is nestled along the popular Sunshine Coast Trail.
While it's a trek to get up there—you can find solace at this halfway point with its 360-degree mountaintop lookout point.
Overlooking the rugged mountains and deep valley's that make up the pristine Powell River—this hidden gem needs to be on your bucket list.
Depending on the time of year, you can access the hut by hiking, snowshoeing or cross-country skiing.
Hello Everyone! Welcome to the @allaboutadventures Instagram takeover! The All About Adventures team will be sharing some of our favourite moments from the epic trip we recently did to the Sunshine Coast. We are going to start the takeover off with @braybraywoowoo's image of the magical Tin Hat Hut. The Tin Hat Hut is one of the many huts that make up the Sunshine Coast Trail. The All About Adventures team hiked up to the hut with their overnight gear and spent the night in the mountains! The roads were extremely snowed in at the time so we would like to give a huge shout out to @b.c.sunshinecoastshuttle for giving us a ride to the trailhead. #SunshineCoastBC #AllAboutAdventures . . Reminder: backcountry explorers should always be prepared with proper gear and training, including avalanche safety. Use @bc_adventuresmart as a resource for more info!
The Sunshine Coast Trail spans the length of 180-kms with 18 huts along the way, making it the longest hut-to-hut hiking trail in the country.
The Tin Hat Cabin just may be the most whimsical of them all. It's also fully winterized, sleeps 10-people and has a pellet stove.
It's situated on the halfway point on the Sunshine Coast Trail. The quickest way to get there is travelling along Old Tin Hat Road, then heading uphill for one-kilometer until you reach a trail that will take you there in about half an hour.


NOTE: The original LP was released with both sides approaching 30 mins in length. This is extraordinarily long for an LP and as such the quality of sound will suffer during playback. We have therefore taken the opportunity to release the album as 2 x 12" sides, each cut at 45rpm, and the sound quality has greatly improved as a result.


On December 4, 2012 the Sarla Modi School of Economics, organised its inaugural annual Economics Conclave- 2012 on the theme, 'Indian Economy – Navigating Choppy Waters'. The key note address was delivered by Dr. Subir Gokarn, Deputy Governor, Reserve Bank of India on the topic: Managing Inflation- Challenges for Indian Central bank.' This was followed by a panel discussion on the Conclave theme. The panelists, including Mr. Dharmakirti Joshi, Chief Economist, CRISIL; Dr. Thomas Richardson, Senior Resident Representative, India and Nepal, IMF; Dr. Abhay Pethe, Professor, University of Mumbai, Mr. Niranjan Rajadhyaksha, Executive Editor, Mint and Mr. Nilesh Shah, Deputy Managing Director, Axis Capital were of the opinion that India needed to concentrate more on domestic structural factors, internal governance systems and reaping its demographic dividend, rather than focus on international factors as impeding its growth story. With adequate attention paid to these domestic factors, there was no reason why India could not manage to achieve its potential rate of output. The discussion was moderated by Mr. Dharmakirti Joshi. With more than 350 participants, the Conclave saw enthusiastic participation from students and professors from other colleges in Mumbai, who got an insight into the Indian economy and the challenges it faces.
Ka-Ching 2012 saw a participation of more than 20 colleges. There were 11 innovative events which were based on Economic Theories & Management Principles. The best contingent prize went to HR College. The second best contingent was NM-College.
The second Annual Intercollegiate Economics debate of the Sarla Anil Modi School of Economics, 'Shastrarth' 2012 organised on Sept 1, 2012 met with an overwhelming response from colleges in Mumbai.

The second team was from SBM(Core), NMIMS comprising of Mr. Abhishek Bajpai and Mr. Gavin D'Souza, while Mr. Rajat Jain , SBM (core) was adjudged the Best Speaker.
We at SAMSOE believe that simply studying from textbooks is not enough. In today's world, a holistic and well-rounded education is required. To that end, students are often shown films of various kinds as a part of the curriculum which aids in the learning process.
The orientation programme for the First Year B.Sc. Economics batch (2012 – 2013) was organized on July 13 & 14, 2012. The programme consisted of an inaugural session at Mithibai Seminar Hall.
