On Thursday, March 15, I stepped onto an airplane with other members of the Marching Illini to embark on an amazing journey. We flew to Dublin, Ireland!
If you didn't hear, the 2017-18 Marching Illini had the amazing opportunity to march in the 2018 St. Patrick's Day Parade. The Marching Illini has a running record of attending the event every few years, and I was lucky enough to attend as a member during my freshman year.
The parade was magical. Getting to meet fans along the parade route was one of the most heartwarming experiences I've ever had, and hearing the crowd cheer as we played in the streets is a memory I won't soon forget.
Before and after our day at the parade, we had the chance to do many fun things around Ireland. From a walking tour of Trinity College to an eye-opening experience at the Titanic Museum in Belfast (Northern Ireland), we had a week full of laughs and memories. While I don't have too many pictures (I mostly recorded video!), I wanted to share the pictures I have on the blog.
Our Ireland trip was the best trip I have ever been on, and I don't know how any Spring Break after this will ever top it! My favorite stop was the Cliffs of Moher, which you will see pictures of below. I hope you enjoy seeing the amazing sights the Marching Illini got to experience this 2018 Spring Break!
I hope you enjoyed my random pictures of the fantastic views (and food!) we got to experience during our Ireland trip. I never thought I would love Ireland as much as I did, and I hope I get to return to this beautiful, green country again soon!
My major is Instrumental Music Education within the College of Fine and Applied Arts. I'm also part of the Marching Illini! Before moving to Urbana, I lived in Collinsville, Illinois, where we are known for some killer Italian food and the World's Largest Catsup Bottle.

This course will include readings from political theory about democratic ideals - from the American founders to J.S. Mill and the Progressives to Joseph Schumpeter and modern writers skeptical of the public will. It will also include contemporary examinations of the media and the internet to see how those practices are changing and how the ideals can or cannot be realized.

An estuary is a body of water formed where freshwater from rivers and streams flows into the ocean, mixing with the seawater. Estuaries and the lands surrounding them are places of transition from land to sea, and from freshwater to saltwater. Although influenced by the tides, estuaries are protected from the full force of ocean waves, winds, and storms by the reefs, barrier islands, or fingers of land, mud, or sand that surround them.

Home Integral Education Summer Course in Indian Culture & Spirituality
Man can make genuine progress only when the idea that education is for earning a living is given up. The link between education and jobs should be totally snapped. Education should be for life, not for a living. Only one who realises this truth is a truly educated person. From ancient times this truth had been recognised by the sages of Bharat, who preserved the nation's cultural heritage. Knowledge does not mean mere book-lore. It is not the transference of the contents of books to the brain.
Education is intended for the transformation of the heart. Man today is proud about the little knowledge he has acquired about the physical world and boasts that he knows all about the universe. True knowledge is that which establishes harmony and synthesis between science on the one hand and spirituality and ethics on the other. Man, therefore, should at the outset determine the true value of education.
Benedictory Address, SSSIHL Annual convocation, 22 November 1985
The Summer Course in Indian Culture & Spirituality serves as an induction programme to all students and teachers of Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning with an objective to expose students of the University to the rich cultural and spiritual heritage of Bharat. It orients students into Bhagawan Baba's educational philosophy and gives them deep, first hand insights into how they can directly benefit from this unique institution.
At universities across the world, induction programmes go beyond the academic and practical requirements of university life and include social elements, that more often than not, disperse the focus, time and energies of students.
At Sai educational institutions, integral education (which includes the focus on a connection with the Higher Self) is a close confidant to the academic curriculum. It is in line with the vision of the Founder Chancellor, Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, that spiritual and empirical education must go hand in hand. In fact, He had initiated the series of Summer Courses as early as the 1970s. It was and still is an effective way to inspire young minds to follow a life of good values and character.
The event—which took place from the 8th to 10th June 2018 at Prasanthi Nilayam—marked the beginning of the academic year for students and teachers of all the four campuses of the university, as well as Sathya Sai Mirpuri College of Music, Sri Sathya Sai Higher Secondary School, Prasanthi Nilayam (Class XI and Class XII) and Sri Sathya Sai Gurukulam English Medium School, Rajahmundry. Over 2500 students and 200 teachers participated.
Each day is typically split into the morning, afternoon and evening sessions.
The morning sessions consist of talks by teachers and research scholars of the university. Typically, they entail key insights and lessons from the ancient Indian scriptures, spiritual personalities and concepts. The sessions also feature a short video show on Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba.
In the afternoons, students and teachers from all four campuses have breakout sessions where they discuss teachings and lessons from Bhagawan Baba's discourses. This year, the main theme was Discipline, Duty and Devotion, based on a Divine Discourse delivered by Bhagawan Baba on 19 June 1996.
The evening sessions on the first two days of the event consisted of three talks by students and teachers of individual SSSIHL campuses, along with veda chanting and bhajans at the Sai Kulwant Hall.
Perhaps the highlight of the day for students are the post-dinner Parayanam sessions. They consist of 2-3 talks by alumni or teachers of the Institute who share personal experiences with Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba and the profound impact they have had in shaping their lives. The valuable and profound life lessons and the sheer love that Baba had for His students and devotees is vividly communicated through these intimate sessions.
Given below is a brief daily report of each day of the event.
Summer Course in Indian Culture & Spirituality 2018
8-10 June 2018 | Prasanthi Nilayam
Day 1 – Friday, 8 June 2018
Following the invocatory Vedam Chanting by students of the Muddenahalli Campus, the Summer Course in Indian Culture & Spirituality 2018 commenced at 8:30 a.m. at the Poornachandra auditorium, Prasanthi Nilayam with a welcome address by Sri Ruchir Desai, Associate Professor, Dept. of Management & Commerce, SSSIHL. He traced the evolution of the Summer Course from its inception, way back in 1972, to its current status. He also spoke about the importance and relevance of India as a country in spreading love and sharing wisdom in the world. Sri Desai expressed his hope that the Summer Course this year satiates our hunger for learning and growing.
In his inaugural address, Prof. K B R Varma, Vice-Chancellor, SSSIHL welcomed all the participants of this year's Summer Course and highlighted the importance of education and reiterated the necessity for the right kind of education. Prof. Varma narrated how such knowledge was endowed in the earlier years in India, at educational hubs for the world, such as Nalanda. He also spoke at great length about the role of culture in benefiting both, the society and the Self.
A brief video of Bhagawan Baba's Divine discourse (originally delivered on 14 January 1990) was then broadcasted. Baba emphasized on the nobility and glory of Indian culture and the need to remember it and imbibe it for every Indian and individual. He said that Bharatiya culture is characterized by sacred thoughts and feelings, not narrow-mindedness, and that the essence of Bharatiya culture is 'universal happiness'. He declared that Sanskrit is the mother of all languages, and the root of Indian culture. Reminding us that real culture is that which transforms, He said that the function of culture is to remove the bad, the defects, and acquire that which is good.
This was followed by a panel discussion, titled, Daiva Preeti, Paapa Bheeti, Sangha Neeti (Love for God, Fear of Sin, Morality in Society). The panelists comprised of teachers from the university. Each panelist shared myriad experiences, personal and of students, and others drawn to Swami's fold. They drew various conclusions and shared insights into this seemingly simple teaching of Bhagawan Baba. Also deliberated upon was a bottoms-up approach to this concept. Experiences were narrated relating to how people who were carrying out good and moral acts in the society were led to God and developed love for the Almighty.
The morning session was drawn to a close by soulful rendition of various Hindustani and Carnatic songs by the Department of Music, SSSIHL. A cascade of devotional songs interspersed with insightful commentary extolled the beauty and importance of 'Naama Sankeertana' and 'Naamasmarana', singing and recollecting the Divine name of the Lord in their programme aptly titled, 'Naam Ratan Dhana Paayo'.
The evening session of the first day of the event commenced at the Sai Kulwant Hall, Prasanthi Nilayam with a summary of the morning session followed by three speeches by students and faculty of the university.
The first speaker, Miss Kanchan Kumar, Student, II M.B.A., Anantapur Campus, SSSIHL talked on the glory of Bharatiya culture. She reminded us that our culture has survived into the modern times, despite foreign domination. The entire edifice of Bharatiya culture is based on the interconnectedness of one with everything and everything with everything, she said. The vedas are based on an oral tradition dating back thousands of years and are based on the metaphysical truth and oneness of all. She urged everyone to reestablish the core values of our great culture.
The next speaker, Sri Suvam Gurung, Student, V Integrated M.C.A., Muddenahalli Campus spoke on the significance of prayer. Using the metaphor of admissions, he said to fellow students, that it is important not just to be 'admitted' to the university but to 'submit' ourselves to the Lord through prayer. He questioned the 'impact' of prayer - does it work or not? Just as a mobile call cannot connect without cellular signal or battery power, a prayer cannot be effective without love, compassion and faith. The quality of prayer is what the Lord desires, not the quantity. Prayer can move mountains, he said. At the same time, we must submit to the Divine Will and have faith that whatever happens is for our own good. In this manner, he concluded, we will not have expectations and disappointments.
Lastly, Sri Darshan Gera, Asst. Professor, Dept. of Mathematics & Computer Science spoke on the topic, Sai Vibhuti. His talk focused on the Divine glory of the Lord, which is beyond comprehension and understanding. Vibhuti, or holy ash signifies desirelessness and auspiciousness; provides us with protection and leads us to liberation. He narrated examples of Lord Shiva, Shirdi Sai Baba and Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba and how they — through vibhuti — healed disease, taught spiritual lessons and shared their love of humanity.
Day 2 – Saturday, 9 June 2018
Following the invocatory Vedam chanting by students of Brindavan Campus, SSSIHL, the second day of the Summer Course in Indian Culture & Spirituality 2018 commenced at 8:30 a.m. at the Poornachandra auditorium, Prasanthi Nilayam, with a talk by Ms. Rani Java, Management Consultant, Bangalore.
True to the title of her talk—Living with Divinity is True Education—Ms. Java shared several personal experiences she had with Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. They brought to the fore several important insights, the most significant and recurring one being the need to have faith in Bhagawan Baba with complete surrender. She also narrated several instances of how Baba helped her in times of need and shared numerous experiences of her journey of devotional evolution and how she grew to love and revere Bhagawan Baba as God.
Following this, a Quiz on Bhagawan Baba's Life & Teachings: Darshan, Sparshan and Sambhashan, saw participation from students of the university and school. The three areas of focus on the quiz were His Divinity, His Message and His Life.
As the saying goes, save the best for last. The last item of the morning session was a delightful drama production by teachers, doctoral research scholars and students of the university. Titled Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitaha (Dharma protects those who uphold or protect dharma), it depicted instances from The Mahabharata, portraying the timeless war between good and evil and how God always stands by the good. It culminated with Lord Krishna teaching humanity that one must do dharma because that's the right thing to do, and that we must have faith in the Lord, as His ways are beyond human comprehension. It is pointless to use our human intellect to challenge His doings.
The evening session commenced at the Sai Kulwant Hall, Prasanthi Nilayam with a summary of the morning session followed by three speeches by students and faculty of the university.
The title of the first speaker, Sri Ujjwal Priydarshi, Student, III B.Com. (Hons.), Brindavan Campus, was Gratitude to my Master. He elaborated several instances of his time with Bhagawan Baba, right from his time at Sri Sathya Sai Primary School. The talk focused on the love Sai has for all His children. He urged the audience to leave the future to the Lord as He knows what is best for us. Hence, he concluded, it is our duty to spend our lives in service to Him - Our Life, His Message.
The next speaker was Sri Rinil Khatri, Student, II M.B.A., Prasanthi Nilayam Campus. His talk, White & Orange, underlined the story of the relationship between God and His devotee: an unending saga of pure love, as he called it. The metaphor of orange (God) and white (man) was well depicted by examples of how the orange influences the white, once we attach ourselves to it, with faith and surrender. Equally, he said, the white can also do its part by following a certain way of life with the right attitude and tap the inner fountain of happiness within us.
The last speaker, Sri G Aditya, Doctoral Research Scholar, Dept. of Management & Commerce acknowledged his indebtedness to Bhagawan Baba in his talk, Guru Seva. He talked about instances of seva even as a student, for example prasadam distribution at Sai Kulwant Hall, and how Sai Himself lovingly taught Him lessons in service, such as perfection in performance. Another example was on how the guru looks at one's availability and not ability. As Bhagawan Baba often said, if we take one step towards the Guru, he will take a hundred towards us. Finally, he said, Guru Seva is the royal path to Divine Grace.
Day 3 – Sunday, 10 June 2018
The final day of the event day began with the invocatory Vedam chanting of the 'Suryapanishad' by students of the Anantapur Campus at the Poornachandra auditorium, Prasanthi Nilayam at 8:30 a.m. Swami Atmashraddhananda, Ramakrishna Math, Belur, Howrah kindly graced the occasion with a wonderful talk on Atmano Mokshartham Jagat Hitaya Cha (Striving for One's Emancipation and Welfare of the World). He traced the evolution of man's journey in life through the four Purusharthas of Kama, Artha, Moksha, to dharma in a practical manner. Referring to the Kathopanishad, he explained the nature of heaven and hell being non-eternal and how each individual's period of stay there depends on his/her karma. He ended his talk by reiterating the need for 'shraddha' to tread the middle path between 'self-emancipation' and 'world-welfare'.
This was followed by a melodious Musical Presentation by the Dept. of Music, SSSIHL. It focused on unity and was aptly titled, Sam Gacchadvam - Let us move together.
Next up was a Panel Discussion, Self-Confidence to Self-Realization. References were made to Bhagawan Baba's illustration of how Self Confidence is the foundation, Self-Satisfaction is the wall, Self-Sacrifice is the roof and Self-realization is the life lived in this abode. The entire discussion was replete with profound insights, shared through personal experiences, short video clips, and a comprehensive discussion on every aspect expressed by Bhagawan in the progression from Self Confidence to Self-Realization.
As is tradition each year, new faculty that joined the SSSIHL family were welcomed to the audience by Dr. B Sai Giridhar, Registrar, SSSIHL. In addition, four long-standing senior Professors, Dr. (Miss) S Kanaka Durga (Dept. of English Language & Literature), Prof. (Mrs.) B Andallu (Dept. of Food & Nutritional Sciences), Prof. Shiv R Pandit (Dept. of Management & Commerce) and Prof. K Venkataramaniah (Dept. of Physics), all of whom have now retired, were felicitated and honoured for their outstanding service and contribution to the Institute since the 1970s and 1980s.
Prof. (Miss) Rajeshwari C Patel, Professor, Dept. of English Language & Literature and Director, Anantapur Campus offered the valedictory address. She summed up the lessons learnt over the three days. Some of these included: Narrow mindedness and Indian Culture have nothing in common; Right action and Service; Music as the most influential form of art; Unswerving devotion can help us navigate through life; The Spirit of Sportsmanship; and, Dharma is beyond our intellect - only the Lord can decide what is right and wrong. She ended with the message of togetherness and unity from Bhagawan Baba's Divine Discourse broadcasted earlier that day.
Following the vote of thanks, the Mangala Aarti to Bhagawan Baba at 12:45 p.m. marked the conclusion of the Summer Course in Indian Culture and Spirituality 2018.
After a specially arranged lunch, the students and teachers then travelled backed to their respective campuses and institutions.
Education must enthuse youth to understand the precious heritage of Indian culture and spirituality, and to evoke the higher powers they possess. Though there are perennial sources and springs of strength within them, they behave like weaklings and ignoramuses. Patience, tolerance, tranquillity and calmness have to be implanted in the heart.
Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba

Construction of the new Halve Maan bottling plant in Bruges started
Brewery De Halve Maan has started the construction of a new bottling plant for the further growth and foreign expansion. The first spade was pulled on Friday, November 29. The current bottling plant has literally burst out of its seams after various expansions: additional tanks, installations or warehouses were added or built almost every year. The brewery wants to make the new building a real "landmark" with the necessary appearance in Bruges.
The plans include new filling lines that are 3 times the size of the current ones. The new bottling line will process 24000 bottles per hour and the barrel line up to 180 barrels per hour. Additional tanks, filtration, warehouses, hot rooms and logistical storage will also be built to accommodate the extra capacity. In collaboration with its partners, the brewery has developed a number of new technologies that should make the new production apparatus even more efficient, performant and flexible. The investment is thus more than a mere expansion of the brewery's capacity. These innovations should drastically reduce the brewery's ecological footprint and it should provide the brewery with even better facilities to successfully undertake its international expansion into various countries around the world. Today, the brewery exports 45% of its volume to more than 40 different countries.
"Innovation helps productivity and competitiveness and that is what we must strive for." says Vice Minister President Hilde Crevits, responsible for Innovation and Economy.
The design of the building combines various functions: in addition to production with process areas and filling lines, there is also room for warehousing, logistics and offices. All this is combined with attention to ecology and a good use of space. The choice was made for an energy-efficient building with a green roof and an underground car park. It was a conscious choice for the brewery not to carve out a new open space for the expansion but rather to work with a smart conversion of existing industrial land.

Report of main proceedings for 6 May 1999
On the fourth day of IFF-3, delegates in Plenary began substantive discussion on international arrangements and mechanisms to promote the management, conservation and sustainable development of all types of forests. WG1 revisited underlying causes of deforestation, TFRK, and forest conservation and protected areas to consider the Co-Chairs' Reports on these topics. The contact groups on trade and environment and the transfer of ESTs met in the afternoon.
Jag Maini, IFF Secretariat, introduced the Secretary- General's Report on international arrangements and mechanisms to promote the management, conservation and sustainable development of all types of forests (E/CN.17/IFF/1999/16). Several delegations, including CHINA and COSTA RICA, emphasized that existing instruments on forests are inadequate because they do not address forests in a holistic manner. The EU, with ESTONIA, LATVIA and POLAND, underscored the need to ensure that efforts towards consensus do not prevent continued action to implement the IPF proposals for action. The EU underscored the need to identify necessary functions for the process beyond the year 2000. The G-77/CHINA expressed concern that the report contained a subliminal message leading readers to a legally binding instrument (LBI) and reiterated the G-77/CHINA's call for a forest fund. The G-77/CHINA, supported by BRAZIL, KOREA, COLOMBIA, NAMIBIA, NIGERIA, PERU and others, deemed consideration of a LBI premature due to a lack of consensus on many elements. COSTA RICA highlighted the Costa Rica-Canada Initiative's (CRCI) aim to build consensus and provide basic elements. The RUSSIAN FEDERATION, with SWITZERLAND, supported the CRCI process and a LBI. TURKEY, SENEGAL and SOUTH AFRICA also endorsed the CRCI.
CANADA emphasized the need for a LBI, and requested that the option of negotiating a LBI by 2002 be included. MALAYSIA called for a LBI with an emphasis on trade and financial resources. CHINA said a sound financial mechanism should be the basis for a LBI. The US doubted institutions with forests in their mandate would relinquish jurisdiction to a new institution. AUSTRALIA questioned the need for a LBI. NIGERIA underscored that capacity building is a greater priority. BRAZIL favored continuing the forest policy dialogue beyond 2000 through existing arrangements such as the CSD. NEW ZEALAND agreed that some form of international policy dialogue is needed in the future. AUSTRALIA, supported by KOREA, asked the Secretariat to prepare a separate list of objectives and actions with an analysis of policy options, including: existing mechanisms, an ongoing intergovernmental forum, the International Tropical Timbers Agreement, a new LBI or a combination of these options.
NORWAY emphasized a comprehensive approach to the international forest dialogue with wide stakeholder participation. JAPAN underscored that any arrangement or mechanism should ensure: SFM as a national priority; development of effective NFPs based on internationally shared ideas; further development and application of C&I; and wood products traded internationally come from sustainably managed forests. MALAYSIA proposed additional elements for consensus building including forest resource security, forest management of tree crops, timber production and forest ecosystem health. IRAN proposed addressing concerns of low forest cover countries. INDIA said international arrangements and mechanisms must address underlying causes of deforestation, the situation of developing countries and funding sources for reforestation. The US identified areas for future international forest discussions or arrangements: biodiversity conservation; forest health maintenance; soil and water conservation; carbon cycle; forest productivity maintenance; social and economic benefits; and legal, institutional and economic policy frameworks. SOBREVIVENCIA called for proposals to, inter alia, protect the remaining ancient forests and prohibit trade in such forests, establish a world conservation fund and forgive debt. GREENPEACE INTERNATIONAL called on the IFF to urge the WTO not to conclude a forest trade agreement until CSD-8 had adequately considered the issue and to request the WTO to report on the progress of its deliberations on this issue.
In discussion on the Co-Chairs' Report on underlying causes, the EU and US requested bracketing text on financial matters. NORWAY called for reference to trade and WTO in the proposals, and reiterated his request for reference to indigenous peoples rather than indigenous people. AUSTRALIA expressed concern over duplication with the IPF proposals for action and suggested a general reference to the IPF proposals. BRAZIL, supported by INDONESIA and MALAYSIA, remarked that some proposals overlooked, inter alia, competitiveness of SFM relative to other land uses, credit availability, access to markets, tariffs and trade barriers. The US, supported by AUSTRALIA, added the private sector to those responsible for deforestation and questioned the reference to a process leading specifically to agreements on commitments for addressing underlying causes. ECUADOR emphasized a partnership with NGOs, indigenous peoples and other groups, and suggested an additional proposal on national policies to change production and consumption patterns.
CHILE called for reference to beneficial subsidies to recover degraded areas. In reference to the impacts of international financial institutions AUSTRALIA suggested reference to more transparent decision making. ECUADOR opposed reference to poverty and illiteracy as underlying causes.
Co-Chair Asadi introduced the Co-Chairs' Report on TFRK. NORWAY regretted the brevity of the report and the absence of reference to the CBD, the International Labour Organisation Convention 169 or the UN Draft Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. He proposed reference to the recognition of indigenous peoples' rights to natural resources in their traditional areas. NORWAY, with CANADA, sought the addition of IPR systems and reference to the expected conclusions of COP-5 of the CBD.
Regarding benefit sharing, MALAYSIA urged, and ECUADOR opposed, inclusion of payments where necessary. The EU, with CANADA, suggested adding WIPO after the reference to TRIPs and the CBD. The EU, supported by JAPAN, proposed asking the CBD Secretariat, CIFOR, IUFRO and the FAO to collaborate in recording TFRK. CANADA questioned whether this was already happening within the CBD Clearing House Mechanism. JAPAN noted that TFRK is part of a sensitive discussion within the CBD and TRIPs and that the IFF should not prejudge these outcomes. JAPAN, the US, AUSTRALIA and ECUADOR suggested deleting reference to TRIPs.
On the Co-Chairs' Report on forest conservation and protected areas, the EU emphasized networks. INDONESIA called for reference to innovative forms of cooperation. The US suggested broadening the context of the proposals to include the private sector, NGOs and local communities, and bracketed text referring to financial support mechanisms to encourage interested parties' involvement. INDONESIA supported, and TURKEY opposed, specific reference to water resources as part of SFM.
TRADE AND ENVIRONMENT: The contact group on trade and environment completed preliminary discussion of conclusions on, inter alia, valuation, market transparency, consumer choices and illegal trade. Delegates concluded text, ad referendum, regarding valuation through full-cost internalization of forest products and services and their substitutes and its influence on competitiveness. The group concurred on text, ad referendum, that studies on the relative full life-cycle analysis of the environmental impacts of forest products and their substitutes suggest forest products may be preferable.
On a paragraph regarding the need for increased market transparency to improve market access of forest products and services, some developed countries stressed the need to include reference to sustainably managed forests. Other delegates felt this reference would restrict other forest goods and services from receiving increased market transparency. The reference to SFM was left in brackets. Added to this paragraph was an accepted proposal stating that increased understanding by producers and consumers of the potential relationship between trade and SFM could help promote responsible consumer choices.
Consensus was not reached on a paragraph regarding illegal trade. Reference to illegal harvesting was deleted after one developing country delegate emphasized that it is a sensitive internal issue. The delegate also supported the inclusion of reference to illegal trade in forest biological resources, while a developed country delegate opposed its inclusion. The reference remained bracketed. Reference to indigenous peoples' loss of revenue due to illegal trade was retained. Delegates agreed to text emphasizing the importance of national policies and international cooperation in reducing with the aim to eliminating illegal trade. A paragraph referring to CITES and the listing of tree species was deleted.
TRANSFER OF ESTs: The group reached agreement on text which urged countries and organizations to initiate coordination and cooperation on forest-related technical assistance and capacity building for the transfer and application of ESTs. A developed country sought to avoid language that could imply commitment of new resources.
Developing countries indicated preference for more explicit and specific text committing developed countries to extend assistance and underlining the needs of developing countries. Developed countries remained resistant to such inclusions and stressed the need to streamline language and to avoid overlap with the IPF proposals for action.
Delegates agreed on ESTs transfer that highlight the needs of low forest cover countries and countries with fragile forest ecosystems. Agreement was reached on actions that would facilitate transfer and application of ESTs for use of wood and non-wood waste and byproducts created by logging and wood processing for industrial processes, giving special attention to wood waste materials as an energy source.
Paragraphs with reference to biological forest resources remained in brackets. Some said addressing the issue was beyond the jurisdiction of the IFF as it is addressed by the CBD and other international arrangements. Some delegates said expert consultations would be necessary to resolve the issue.
A number of delegates expressed concern over the quality of the content of the Co-Chairs' Reports. Many were concerned that substantive text changes submitted by delegates in the working groups were not reflected in the Reports. Some delegates feel that more contact groups are necessary to ensure that text suggestions are adequately recorded.
PLENARY: Plenary will convene in Salle XIX at 3:00 pm.
WG1: WG1 will meet at 10:00 am to continue discussion on the Co-Chairs' Reports on underlying causes of deforestation, TFRK and forest conservation and protected areas.
CONTACT GROUPS: The contact group on trade and environment will reconvene at a time to be announced. The contact group on ESTs will reconvene in Salle XXV at 10:00 am.

Parents want more 'outstanding' schools inspected, plus 4 more Ofsted findings
Schools Week reporter
Tue 30th Apr 2019, 0.01
Parents want 'outstanding' schools inspected more often, but believe short inspections are increasingly behind unreliable judgments.
Ofsted has published its annual parent survey today. A total of 1,111 parents responded to the poll, carried out in November last year.
Here's a round-up of some of the more interesting findings.
1. Parents think Ofsted is reliable, but have concerns over short inspections
Nearly three-quarters of parents think Ofsted is reliable. However, of those with reliability concerns, over half (52 per cent) now say this is because inspections are too short to provide a "meaningful picture" – up from 44 per cent in 2017.
In January 2018, Ofsted introduced its new one-day inspections for schools rated 'good', but such inspections will be extended to two-days from September.
A total of 44 per cent of those parents who said Ofsted was unreliable also said too much notice is given to schools, again up on 2017 (when it was 37 per cent).
Unsurprisingly, this goes against the general consensus among schools leaders, who do not like the idea.
2. Parents want outstanding schools inspected more often
Nearly three-quarters of parents agreed that 'outstanding' schools should be inspected just as frequently as 'good' schools (72 per cent).
However, eight in 10 parents didn't actually know about the inspection exemption for 'outstanding' schools.
Ofsted has long been pushing to get the exemption dropped, but the DfE has so far resisted, though ministers have told Ofsted to inspect more 'outstanding' schools anyway.
3. Academies more likely to focus on results over content
Nearly a quarter of parents thought their school placed a greater focus on getting good results for children than the content of a child's learning.
However, parents with children at an academy or free school were "significantly more likely" to think this (27 per cent), compared to parents at a council-maintained school (21 per cent).
4. Few parents think languages and music are 'sufficiently covered' in schools
Ofsted has made a lot of noise about the schools narrowing the curriculum. This finding seems to fit into that narrative – with less than half of parents feeling a whole host of subjects are "sufficiently covered" in their child's education.
Just a quarter of parents felt design and technology was covered enough, while 30 per cent felt the same about languages and 32 per cent about both music and geography.
But nearly a third of parents think their child seems to have more teaching time on a wide range of subjects than last year.
5. Two-thirds of parents think Ofsted helps to improve standards
More than two-thirds of parents now believe Ofsted helps to improve standards of education – up from 63 per cent in 2017, to 67 per cent last year.
Agreement is higher in primary schools (70 per cent) when compared to secondaries (64 per cent). Confidence in Ofsted's impact is also higher amongst BAME parents (77 per cent) compared to 67 per cent who are white.
This compares to fewer than one in four teachers believing that Ofsted is a "force for improvement" in England's education system.

UGA Baseball: Bulldogs' Mistakes and Pitching Woes Lead to Opening Day Loss
Michael Pope
UGA Baseball No Comments
Kevin Smith torques his arm as he throws
The Bulldogs' multiple mistakes were too much to overcome and led to a 9-3 loss to the College of Charleston on Opening Day for the UGA baseball team.
Bulldogs' pitcher Kevin Smith started off strong as he struck out the side in the opening inning but struggled with control in the rest of the game. Smith's command struggles paired with two fielding errors put the Bulldogs in a tough position. The Cougars' took advantage of the Bulldogs' mistakes and gained full control of the game in the top of the 5th.
The instant that Kevin Smith releases his ptich
Already having a 1-run lead heading into the top of the 5th, The Cougars' increased their lead to 4 with 5 of their first 6 hitters in the inning getting on base. The Cougars just hit single after the single in the inning and slowly added to their lead. Smith's control issues did not help as he threw three wild pitches in the game, with one coming in the Cougars' big 5th inning.
"It was one of those nights where it was hard to find a rhythm, get confidence in those pitches, and it didn't go as planned," said Smith. "It's the first game, I could see a little nerves happening, but we're gonna come back tomorrow better than ever."
Smith was not able to finish the inning and he ended his day with four strikeouts and three walks while allowing five runs to score, four of which were earned. The Bulldogs used three more pitchers after Smith was relieved and they were Blakely Brown, Andrew Gist, and James Williams
After coming into a tough bases-loaded situation in which Gist allowed two runs to score, he only allowed one base runner after that and this made him the Bulldogs' most impressive pitcher on the night for me. Gist was, for the most part, dominant in his appearance and he finished with two strikeouts in 2.2 innings and was the only Bulldogs' pitcher to not throw a wild pitch.
College of Charleston pitcher Bailey Ober earned the win and had very little trouble during his time on the mound. Ober finished the day with 8 strikeouts and 2 walks and only allowed three runs to score, with only two of those being earned. Ober had a much more dominant day than his stat-line shows and if it had not been for his last inning, he probably would have been my MVP.
The Bulldogs could not manage to score any more runs after earning two on Ober late in his start and ended up losing the game by a score of 9-3. They will face the College of Charleston Saturday at 1:00 p.m.
"We just gave away too many free opportunities, too many free bases and they're a good team," said Ike Cousins head coach Scott Stricklin. "We knew that coming in that we were gonna have to play well to win, we just didn't play very well and they outplayed us in just about every category and all we can do is turn the page and get ready to play tomorrow."
MVP: Cougars First Baseman Logan McRae
McRae had a great day at the plate as he reached on all five of his plate appearances, with three singles, one double, and a walk. McRae also scored three runs for the Cougars while knocking in three runs as well. McRae's offensive production alone was enough to best the Bulldogs and he will be one to watch in the remainder of the series.

Convicted Child Killer Robert Black Dies In Prison
Sean Kelly
Convicted child murderer Robert Black died in a Northern Ireland prison while serving a life sentence for killing four girls in the 1980s.
Black, a 68-year-old Scottish-born truck driver living in Northern Ireland at the time of the crimes, died of natural causes while serving time at Maghaberry prison, BBC reported on Jan. 12. In 1981, Black killed 9-year-old Jennifer Cardy after abducting her as she was riding a bike near a friend's home.
The next year, he abducted and murdered 11-year-old Susan Maxwell in a town near the Scottish border. After that, Black killed 5-year-old Caroline Hogg after abducting her from her home near Edinburgh, Scotland.
In 1986, he abducted 10-year-old Sarah Harper while she was walking home from a store. Her body was later discovered in a river.
"While this is not being treated as suspicious, the Prison Service has informed the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI), Coroner, and Prisoner Ombudsman," the Northern Ireland Prison Service said of Black's death. "It would not be appropriate to comment further at this time."
Cardy's case was the last to be solved, with Black being convicted in 2011. He was already serving life sentences for the three other killings.
The man was caught in 1990, when police stopped his van and found a 6-year-old victim bound and gagged in the back seat.
Black was the primary suspect in the disappearance of 13-year-old Genette Tate, who was last seen in Devon in 1978. No trace of the girl was ever found, and their was insufficient proof to prosecute Black.

Cynthia Wilson
A vote of approval for the March l, 2018 minutes was first given by KATHERINE FLOTZ and seconded by SHARON BUCKMAN.
LITERARY NEWS:
CYNTHIA WILSON (our newest guest) stated she is presently writing a novel, based on a true story, entitled Life in a Comatose Day.
SHARON BUCKMAN brought two copies of her newly published book entitled, Beyond the Canopy, a sequel to her first book, Canopy of Leaves.
KATHERINE FLOTZ stated she will be speaking at the Pines Village on April 20th concerning her novel Pebble in my Shoe.
EDUCATIONAL PRESENTATION:
AMY CLITES gave a wonderful presentation concerning the best way to write a screenplay using the "Blake Snyder Beat Sheet." She stated that Blake Snyder, author of Save the Cat! The Last Book on Screenwriting You'll Ever Need, had written a total of 75 screenplays and was probably the best in his field by using his "Beat Sheet." This is a three-act screenplay structure broken into 15 specific beats, with each beat corresponding to specific page numbers. Amy used photo pages from the "Wizard of Oz" to explain and demonstrate examples of the 15 beats. She also stated that this format could be used for writing novels as well. The presentation was followed by various questions from the members.
AMY CLITES read the second part of her screenplay proposal entitled, "Salam, a Dance." This part of her very suspenseful story began with a man, woman and child standing motionless in the dark corner of their bedroom as several uniformed men surround the bed they had been sleeping on. They are discovered when the baby cries. The story ends with two of the uniformed men surrounding the woman, a gunshot is heard and then a scream.
CAREN VON SEE read four pages of the first chapter of her novel, My Treasure Chest. The story begins with Sara meeting her soon-to-be husband, as she is waitressing in a family-owned restaurant. After meeting this nice looking Italian man he asks her to "share some wine" with him after she got off work. She accepted and the romance began as they went to a bar around the corner and talked until two a.m.
HARDERSHAN VALIA read his beautiful eight stanza poem entitled, "Ode to Lake Michigan." The poem tells of Lake Michigan's beginning and its natural progression and of "nature's destructive force." The poem ends with four lines from the last stanza, "Then the faces of fossil treasures, Dancing under the moonlit sky, Speak to you in wonder of Nature's rule, The Vulnerability of life."
AL KOCH brought his two page comical memoir entitled, "X-rays for Fun and Profit." The memoir tells of all the various times that "X-rays" played a part of his life while growing up in Whiting, In. Beginning with all the Superman, x-ray vision, movies, to the "powers of evil" that were conquered with x-rays and finally ending with how many times he put his feet into the x-ray machines to check for proper fits.
AMY BRAILEY continued with one of her story prompts (meant for her students to finish.) The title of this story, "Disappearances," begins with Roxanne slipping quietly out of her house to go exploring into the forest, despite all the resent disappearances. She accidently meets up with her friend Mason who tries to get her to return to her grandparents' house. When she refuses they travel deeper into the woods and Mason confesses he saw their friend, Leliana, being captured.

EDUCATION PROGRAM:
"Online Editing Tools"
REBECCA JUERGENS opened the program by passing out a few pages about Online Editing Tools (tips and trick for editing programs) available via Grammarly, ProWritingAid, and AutoCrit. Rebecca also shared a few of the pages offered via Grammarly: 1. Online Profile, and 2. Weekly Email Reports. She provided the list of the five step process for setting one's writing parameters in MS Word and recommended the following books: The Elements of Style by William Strunk Jr. and E.B. White; The Chicago Manual of Style—The Essential Guide for Writers, Editors, and Publishers; and Stephen King on Writing, which Rebecca highly recommended.
A brief discussion followed with members expressing opinions on their preferred program.
AMY CLITES read two pages of her powerful screen play "Salan A Dance, written in Tetra Lela." None of the characters said a single word, but their movement, and attention on the bed, which was the focal point of the stage, represented safety and a refuge. The description of the scene built in intensity with every written word. The pictures and emotions were incredibly strong.
MICHAEL BEDNARCZYK read the lines from his children's book, which he has temporarily named, "The Rainbow Painter." Colors were vividly relayed through the travels of Painter Porcupine the animal characters in his story. Once all his colors were collected and stored in jars, he was finally able to paint his rainbow.
AL KOCH'S shared his article called, "Thoughts." Al pondered why it is that people do not understand how thoughts are formed through the electro-chemical reaction within the brain. What we do know; however, is that thoughts come through the arrangement of ideas, which result in the process called thinking. The input for this process is driven by our senses: sights, sounds, smells, tastes and feelings. Via this process, we pass along knowledge learned through experiences. Al recommended that we talk, listen, and should be good to one another by celebrating, appreciating and sharing the personal thoughtful gifts each of us has within our heart and mind.
KATHERINE FLOTZ With US immigration's laws being reconsidered these days, Katherine shared memories about her grandmother's visit to America. She came to the State in 1958 after the birth of her grandson, Peter. Katherine told of the struggles they went through, which ultimately made them seek the help of a Senator in North Dakota. The Senator introduced a bill, which was ultimately signed into law when Dwight D. Eisenhower sighed the bill. Their grandmother was able to live in the US for fifteen years and taught her grandchildren German as their first language.
CAREN VON SEE used the following W.O.H. group page prompt for this story:"You've been able to read minds since you turned seven. Mostly you watch people's thoughts passively and undetected, but one day someone talks back."
This short story is titled, "One Day Someone Talked Back." The story, which follows, is a conversation between two individuals. One who is clairaudient and the other, who is clairsentient. Neither of which is agreeable to being in the other's head.
AMY BRAILEY read two short stories, "Mind Games", and "The Chase." Both stories will eventually become part of her book of prompts to help instructors teach children how to write in school.
Mind Games – (also based on the same W.O.H group page prompt that Caren Von See used. See above.) This is a story about lessons a young man learned in life – The first lesson starts with the young man celebrating his seventh birthday when d he learns that his family is moving. The second lesson comes when he learns about the cruelty of how his "so-called" friends perceive him. When a new student joins their class, opinions are instantly formed and they read each other's minds.
The Chase– is a tale of revenge, Kara, and Oliver who are trying to escape the wrath of Charles Bagheera. Oliver, when he sees, Bagheera's taillights, thinks and suggests that they are out of danger. Kara disagrees. As it turns out, Oliver's father not only double crossed Bagheera, but was also involved in a betrayal and the murder of a girl whom Bagheera cared about.

Q: Angular 13 - multiple html file entry points I have a single Angular 13 application with 1 module. It is a conversion from an old project that had 3 applications. The 3 applications have separate urls that are accessed through .jsp files that then should route to 3 different routes within the now single Angular application.
The jsp files have a redirect as below:
response.sendRedirect("../angular-application/index.html");

However, I since I need them to direct to separate pages, I tried:
response.sendRedirect("../angular-application/support.html");

then in my app.module.ts file: I attempted to implement a similar switch statement to what was found here: Angular 6 - multiple Entry points
import {ApplicationRef, DoBootstrap, NgModule} from '@angular/core';

@NgModule({
  entryComponents: [AppComponent, SupportComponent],
  declarations: [
    AppComponent,
    SupportComponent
  ],
  //bootstrap: [],
}]
export class AppModule implements DoBootstrap{
  ngDoBootstrap(appRef: ApplicationRef) {
    switch ((<any>window).Mode) {
      case 'index## Heading ##':
         appRef.bootstrap(AppComponent, 'app-root');
        break;
      case 'support':
         appRef.bootstrap(SupportComponent, 'app-support');
        break;
    }
  }

This doesn't work to render any of the pages. I changed window.Mode to window.name, setting the window name in the html page and was able to route to index.html, however I am having issues with the routing to the other pages. First, and probably an easy solution I just don't know about, if I try to access the page through any of the other html files in the src folder, they are not recognized, and are treated as if they are index.html. I declare window.name as "support", but when I debug in the console, it says window.name is "index" as I set it in the index.html file. Second, when I use the debugger and change the variable in the console to match the other cases, I get the error: "Error: The selector "app-support" did not match any elements".
I am open to other solutions to this as well, aside from using the multiple entryComponents. I cannot change it to 3 applications though.
Other thoughts I had were sending data through the .jsp files on the redirect and writing a script with an if statement to navigate to the appropriate component through the index.html file, however I have not found any information on how to accomplish that from a .jsp file.
Any help to resolve this is very appreciated.

Software that can help simplify aspects of a scaffolding business.
As a scaffolder, it is important that you understand the design and use of scaffolding properly. Improper design and use can lead to health and safety issues, as well as leading to inefficiencies which can eat into your profit. Whilst you should always rely on your knowledge to help you to make the final judgement call when it comes to scaffolding that you design and erect, it is now possible to buy intelligent IT software which will help to make the whole process much quicker and easier.
Computer Aided Design (CAD) software is becoming more important to designers across the whole spectrum, from furniture designers through to vehicle manufacturers. This type of software allows designers to get their thoughts and ideas down "on paper" far more quickly than they would be able to if they were using pen and ink drawings.
CAD software also allows the designer to make changes to their creations far more quickly than they would be able to change physical drawings. This means that scaffolding designers have the opportunity to "play around" with far more designs than they would be able to if they had to draw each one out by hand. This also means that they have more opportunities to come up with structures that really work for their intended purpose.
Good software will also allow you to anticipate how the scaffolding could change if certain conditions at the site changed. You should be able to push a few buttons and change a few parameters to allow you to see what difference these changes could make. These conditions may include local regulations which prevent or promote certain practices within the construction community.
Most of the top software is also designed to work with a variety of major types of scaffolding, including tubes and fitting, system scaffolding and many other styles used across Europe.
One of the main ideas behind using scaffolding design software as part of your business is that it increases your productivity. Once you understand how to use the software properly, you will be able to spend far less time designing and far more time doing. This means that you should be able to fit more jobs into your week.
Using CAD software to design scaffolding structures can also help you to come up with more accurate pricing estimates for each job. This will allow you to give your potential clients a more accurate estimate for the work that they are asking for. Most clients look favourably on contractors whose estimates are close to the actual final price.
Scaffold pricing software can identify what components are used in each structure and use this to work out how much a job is likely to cost. The best software will also factor in how many people should be needed to fit this structure and how long it might take them to do it.
Before you've decided whether CAD software is right for your business, you need to consider the costs involved. Some software packages cost tens of thousands of pounds and may require users to pay an annual licensing fee to the product designer. This annual fee will normally buy the owner product support and regular updates when they are needed. They may also be able to integrate it into other software which you own and use for business purposes. This can allow different software types to communicate with each other to give you maximum efficiency.
If you do a lot of jobs annually, investing in this software could definitely be worth it, however if you do not scaffold regularly, the cost could outweigh the benefits. Some software designers offer "lite" versions of their software which offer reduced functionality at a lower cost.
As previously noted, you should never rely solely on computer generated designs for scaffolding. If it is your job to design scaffolding for use on a project, then it will ultimately be your responsibility if the design is unsuitable. Therefore, you are advised to use this software as a guide, but to check and double check all ideas before you sign off on these plans, to make sure that they are suitable for the environments that you are working in.

France in America
visit this resource
"Conceived in partnership with France's national library, the Bibliothèque nationale de France, France in America /France en Amérique is a bilingual digital library made available by the Library of Congress. It explores the history of the French presence in North America from the first decades of the 16th century to the end of the 19th century. Through direct digital access to complete books, maps, prints, and other documents from the collections of the partner libraries, the project illuminates two major themes in the history of relations between France and the United States: the role played by France in the exploration and settlement of the continent and its participation in several events which indelibly marked the history of the United States: the French and Indian War, the American Revolution, and the Louisiana Purchase. The site will be completed in fall 2006 with a panorama of economic, scientific, literary and artistic exchanges between the two nations in the course of the 19th century. The missions of the Library of Congress and the Bibliothèque nationale de France are to make their resources available to ever growing numbers of people and to preserve a universal collection of knowledge and creativity for future generations. France in America is part of the Library of Congress's Global Gateway project to establish cooperative digital libraries with national libraries from around the world. The goal of the Library's National Digital Library Program is to offer broad public access to a wide range of historical and cultural documents to contribute to education and lifelong learning. Digital collections from other institutions complement and enhance the Library's own resources. The companion site to France in America at the Bibliothèque nationale de France, La France en Amérique (accessible here) is the newest addition to Gallica, the library's digital library. With some 76 thousand digitized texts and 80 thousand images to date, Gallica offers the online public an encyclopedic reference collection as well as sites dedicated to particular themes. The Library of Congress and the Bibliothèque nationale de France present these documents as part of the record of the past. These historical documents reflect the attitudes, perspectives, and beliefs of different times. The two libraries do not endorse the views expressed in these collections, which may contain materials offensive to some readers." The digital sources comprise books, manuscripts, maps, audio and video and can be browsed or searched by keyword. See for Gallica also this entry in the portal.

Biomedical Engineering (BME) or Medical Engineering is the application of engineering principles and design concepts to medicine and biology for healthcare purposes (e.g. diagnostic or therapeutic).
Artificial body part replacements are one of the many applications of bionics. Concerned with the intricate and thorough study of the properties and function of human body systems, bionics may be applied to solve some engineering problems. Careful study of the different functions and processes of the eyes, ears, and other organs paved the way for improved cameras, television, radio transmitters and receivers, and many other useful tools. These developments have indeed made our lives better, but the best contribution that bionics has made is in the field of biomedical engineering (the building of useful replacements for various parts of the human body). Modern hospitals now have available spare parts to replace body parts badly damaged by injury or disease Biomedical engineers work hand in hand with doctors to build these artificial body parts.
Their inherent focus on practical implementation of technology has tended to keep them oriented more towards incremental-level redesigns and reconfigurations, as opposed to revolutionary research & development or ideas that would be many years from clinical adoption; however, there is a growing effort to expand this time-horizon over which clinical engineers can influence the trajectory of biomedical innovation. In their various roles, they form a "bridge" between the primary designers and the end-users, by combining the perspectives of being both 1) close to the point-of-use, while 2) trained in product and process engineering. Clinical engineering departments will sometimes hire not just biomedical engineers, but also industrial/systems engineers to help address operations research/optimization, human factors, cost analysis, etc.
Our team of highly efficient mechanical and bioengineers will handle your project and idea, we will design a concept towards medical standards and develop a perfect prototype for your in field testing.


Last night's presidential debate revealed two individuals and by association two political parties with fundamentally different economic beliefs and therefore visions for the United States. Since the government plays such a big role in our lives it's instructive to consider both paths in order to make some basic financial literacy points.
In my view, Romney sees creativity as the solution, while Obama sees better management as the answer. In a prior post I defined economics as the law of scarcity or how we choose to use the limited resources available to us. Consider the ultimate 0 sum game example, in the early 1800s the economist, statesman and philosopher Thomas Malthus calculated that given the planet's limited resources and the trajectory of population growth we had about 50 years to go before bust. Well it's now 210 years and 6.0 billion people later. How could he, one of the brightest people on the planet been so wrong. I and others would argue he never took into account creativity. Which brings me back to the debate.
Romney believes if we use the tax code and regulations wisely we can stimulate creativity and growth will naturally ensue. That growth will generate the additional jobs which will lead to increased tax revenues and the problem is solved. Obama, on the other hand, sees it as a management problem, an allocation issue, a 0 sum game. There's only so much to go around and we need to get more money into the hands of those with less. To do that we'll need to tax those better off in order to fund programs for those in need. As a by-product government will need to get bigger and make more rules.

Counter Terror Strategy # 1: Counter terror by risking love.
I heard a radio interview with a young woman who arrived at the outer door of her apartment building in Paris just as shots were fired by terrorists nearby. She had just slipped inside when a terrified crowd of strangers began pounding on her door. Frantically, they begged her to shelter them from the gunman. She had a fraction of a second to choose whether to open her door, endangering herself, or leave it closed, leaving nearly a hundred people in harm's way. She opened the door. Then she packed as many of them as she could into her small apartment. She offered them comfort and hospitality. She is a counter-terrorism hero.
Evil wins when fear prompts us to choose self-protectiveness instead of courageous love.
In clear-eyed hindsight we hail the ordinary people who risked everything to shelter Jews during World War II. Some suffered in concentration camps and died for their brave choices. They stood firmly on the side of the vilified and undervalued members of society while powerful evil was spreading fear and hatred. Some lost their lives in the process but they did not lose their souls.
Our own increasingly dark times are offering us the same opportunity. Dark-skinned middle eastern people fleeing terror, cruelty, and oppression are being vilified along with the wolves who hide among them. Some claim that it would be lunacy to act compassionately toward these people who are without homes and without hope because we fear terrorists who may be in their midst. We must choose whether to lock ourselves safely in and plug our ears against the cries of those dying just outside or to risk courageous hospitality instead.

Q: Python 3.9 glob.iglob going in infinite searching for files Below code is going in endless loop as getting stuck in some /proc/self.... paths.
After killing the execution, when I tried to check the path then found no matching folder with this random number and during processing also, folder is there but  not have any JAR file in it (which is given in search pattern).
