Australia and PNG agree to extend contracts for Manus Island asylum seeker services
The Australian and Papua New Guinea governments agree to a limited extension of the contracts to provide services to asylum seekers, before the PNG Government takes over.
The Australian and Papua New Guinea governments have agreed to a limited extension of the contracts to provide services to asylum seekers, before the PNG Government takes over.
The contracts for work on Manus Island were to expire at the end of the month.
Wednesday's agreement came after PNG Prime Minister James Marape called for the security contracts held by Paladin to be cancelled immediately.
The two governments released a joint statement saying they were committed to "ongoing cooperation to ensure quality and sustainable services are in place to support the health, welfare and safety of transferees".
The statement said the PNG Government intended to assume responsibility for service delivery and would contract local providers "through an open market competitive procurement process".
To allow time for that to happen and to ensure services are maintained, the governments have agreed to a limited extension of existing contract arrangements along with a review of those arrangements.
The statement said the transition would happen within the "quickest possible time" and then the Australian-held contracts would be terminated.
No time frames for the contract extensions or transition have been outlined.
The announcement came after a week of political disagreement.
After Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton said the $423 million security contract held by Paladin would likely be extended, the PNG Immigration Minister and then Mr Marape called for the contract to be terminated.
The awarding of the contract to Paladin is currently being investigated by Australia's auditor-general, though the Home Affairs Department has defended the arrangement.
Paladin has said it is unable to speak about the specifics on its contract on the island but in a statement the company has defended its work in the area.
"Paladin has an outstanding track record in the region as an ethical provider of security, safety, risk management, community engagement and garrison services with significant expertise in working in partnership with local communities," the statement reads.
"We have more than 4,500 employees across the Asia Pacific region and our partnership model is built on the participation, training and mentoring of local staff and landowners to achieve stability and prosperity.
"We employ a majority local workforce, buy local and ensure we become a valued part of the communities we operate in. "
Home Affairs secretary Michael Pezzullo told a Senate hearing in February the PNG Government was planning to take over responsibility for the services in October 2017, but in July that year decided it could not proceed because it was in caretaker mode ahead of an election.
PNG says local companies now have the capacity and expertise to provide security services on Manus Island and would like to see a transparent tender process introduced.
Shadow Home Affairs Minister Kristina Keneally said in a statement Labor "welcomes the fact an open market competitive procurement process will be undertaken for future contracts in PNG".
"Australia still has skin in the game and it is incumbent on Peter Dutton to ensure any future contracts in PNG are fit for purpose and ensure value for money if services are being funded by the Australian taxpayer," she said.
Asylum seekers who had been trying to reach Australia were first sent to PNG for offshore processing nearly six years ago.
They have been living in accommodation centres in the local community, which are guarded, since the detention centre was closed in late 2017.

Naliściak brzozowiak (Phyllobius (Phyllobius) betulinus) – gatunek chrząszcza z rodziny ryjkowcowatych i podrodziny Entiminae.

Taksonomia
Gatunek ten został opisany po raz pierwszy w 1801 roku przez Johana Christiana Fabriciusa jako Curculio betulae. Nowy, obecnie uznawany epitet gatunkowy wprowadzili w 1805 roku Johann Matthäus Bechstein i Georg Ludwig Scharfenberg w kombinacji Curculio betulinus. Historycznie gatunek ten umieszczany był w podrodzajach Mylacomias, Neripletenus, Phyllobidius, Phyllobiomorphus, Subphyllobius i Ustavenus. Współcześnie klasyfikowany jest w podrodzaju nominatywnym rodzaju naliściak (Phyllobius) i wyróżnia się w jego obrębie dwa podgatunki:
 Phyllobius (Phyllobius) betulinus betulinus (Bechstein et Scharfenberg, 1805)
 Phyllobius (Phyllobius) betulinus hellenicus Apfelbeck, 1916

Wygląd

Chrząszcz o ciele długości od 3,5 do 5 mm. Wierzch przedplecza i pokryw ma gęsto porośnięty jasnymi, odstającymi włoskami. Zielone lub złociste łuski porastają: boki przedplecza (wyjątkowo też jego wierzch, ale są tam wtedy rzadziej rozmieszczone i cieńsze), niezbyt gęsto pokrywy, gęsto przednie biodra i rejony przedpiersia ponad nimi, a w formie jasnych plam: episternity i epimeryty śródpiersia i zapiersia. Barwa czułków i odnóży jest żółtoczerwona z ciemniejszymi udami. Pokrywy mają łuski okrągławe, sterczące włoski o długości większej niż szerokość międzyrzędów oraz odgiętą listewkę w tyle, zaopatrzoną w pojedyncze łuski. Odwłok jest owłosiony, ale pozbawiony łusek. Odnóża mają zrośnięte pazurki, duże i szerokie zęby na udach, a te przedniej i środkowej pary mocno zaostrzone zewnętrzne krawędzie goleni.

Ekologia i występowanie
Owad ten zasiedla suche i ciepłe stanowiska w lasach liściastych i mieszanych, nasłonecznionych skrajach lasów i zarośli, dolinach rzecznych, nasłonecznionych stokach i wrzosowiskach. Imagines spotyka się od maja do lipca. Prowadzą aktywność dzienną. Są polifagiczne. Żerują na liściach brzóz, olch oraz drzew i krzewów z rodziny różowatych, np. różach, głogach, śliwie tarninie i wiśni ptasiej. Larwy przechodzą rozwój, odżywiając się korzeniami.

Gatunek zachodniopalearktyczny, głównie południowoeuropejski. W Europie stwierdzony został w Portugalii, Hiszpanii, Francji, Holandii, Niemczech, Łotwie, Litwie, Szwajcarii, Austrii, Polsce, Białorusi, Czechach, Słowacji, na Węgrzech, Ukrainie, w Chorwacji, Bośni i Hercegowinie, Serbii, Czarnogórze, Mołdawii, Rumunii, Bułgarii, Albanii, Macedonii Północnej, Grecji i Rosji. W Azji znany jest z Bliskiego Wschodu i Kaukazu. W Polsce jest rzadko obserwowany, znany głównie z południowej części kraju.

Welcome to Birdbell. We are so happy you're here and we can't wait to hear all about your wedding day!
Who are we? We're Deanna and Brett, the married creators behind Birdbell. We created Birdbell because we wish this had been available when we got married. Sadly, it wasn't and while wedding registries have come a long way over the past few years, they are still a lot of work to put together. Good news is, we're here to help.
Do you want an amazing wedding registry? Of course you do, what a silly question! But, if you're like many couples, you may not have the time to create the registry you dream of.
Here's how traditional wedding registry creation goes. You plan for a day shopping at your favorite stores together. You both start out excited; giddy almost. After almost an hour of talking with the store clerk, you are finally set up and they send you on your way, but not before they try to sell you on the latest and greatest gadget or gizmo. You're both already a little worn out and you haven't even started yet.
Then, you start to pick out your gifts. Where do we start? Housewares? Dining? Should you get place settings for 8 or 12? How many baking pans do I need? There are so many items to choose from. Oh, that gadget looks fun. I always wanted this sparkly thing. Meanwhile, your significant other is off on the other side of the store picking out, who knows what.
Sadly in 6 months you'll be opening boxes wondering why you have 5 different cake pans and not the things you really need. You'll find your first home together feeling cluttered and have to spend time returning and exchanging gifts instead of enjoying newlywed bliss. This is not what you had in mind when first started out.
That's where we come in. Birdbell was created for couples that want an amazing gift registry without all the hassle.
We help couples create registries they love based on their unique style, likes, and tastes. Lists are curated from the stores you already know and love like Amazon, Crate and Barrel, Etsy, Uncommon Goods, and more. Creating a universal registry makes it easy to see all of your items in one place, making shopping simple for your guests and management easy for you.
We start by determining your signature style as a couple and then help you craft an amazing registry complete with everything you need. From there you can easily add, swap, and tweak as necessary from the comfort of your home. Share one simple wedding registry link with your guests and you're set. You can even customize your wedding registry page with photos and details about your wedding.

Elizabeth Keatinge shares some experts' tips on filing your taxes properly. Buzz60
With the tax deadline a little more than a month away, some New Jerseyans are finding their returns aren't as simple as proponents of the new law made it sound.
The big change: Tax returns this year come with additional schedules attached to the Form 1040 for taxpayers to note extra income and credits.
"We're answering a lot of questions about, 'Where do you put estimated taxes, where do you put capital loss,'" said Stephen Mazur, a certified public accountant with Mazur & Associates in Middletown. "We say, 'You have to put it on the schedule and then from the schedule you have to add up all those items from the schedule and transfer that to page 1 (of the Form 1040).'"
MORE: NJ property taxes have doubled in 20 years. Find your town
MORE: Tax refunds in NJ are lower, but, yes, you still got a tax cut
Mazur was among the accountants from the New Jersey Society of Certified Public Accountants who visited the Asbury Park Press Sunday and answered tax questions from readers.
This year's event marked the first tax season since President Donald Trump signed the Tax Cut and Jobs Act, a law that supporters said would not only slash income tax rates, but also simplify the tax code so much that it could virtually fit on a postcard.
The law caused no shortage of angst in high-tax states like New Jersey, largely because it capped the amount people could deduct for state and local taxes at $10,000.
The accountants said it has hurt two income groups the most: households making between $100,000 and $250,000, and those making $750,000 or more.
Otherwise, income tax rates were reduced so much that most New Jerseyans gained ground.
(It doesn't mean New Jerseyans are about to get a giant tax refund. Their employers likely withheld less tax money from their paychecks during the year, which could lead to smaller refunds, the accountants said.)

The accountants received nearly 200 calls on Sunday, and not all were focused on federal taxes.
One question that has come up repeatedly this season: New Jersey has been increasing its retirement income exclusion, which can reduce the taxable income for taxpayers making less than $100,000.
The Christie-era change is designed to give retired New Jerseyans incentive to stay here. And it can make a big enough difference that taxpayers who make slightly more than $100,000 should take steps to get under that threshold, Mazur said.

For most callers, though, the biggest question was simply how to navigate the new forms. Some taxpayers said they couldn't figure out how to record additional income from gambling winnings or unemployment benefits, for example.
It turned out that the Form 1040 was condensed from two pages to a half-page, making it a breeze for, say, a worker who takes the standard deduction and has a single source of income.
But taxpayers who had other income or were claiming tax credits needed to fill out a schedule and then transfer it to the Form 1040.
"This is the (most) confusing problem, to be honest with you," said I. David Eliran, a Freehold accountant.

SEC. 12312. PROHIBITION AGAINST INTERFERENCE BY STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS WITH PRODUCTION OR MANUFACTURE OF ITEMS IN OTHER STATES.
(B) the laws of the State and locality in which such production or manufacture occurs.
The letter makes several objections, among them that the King Amendment has a much wider sweep than simply targeting California's Prop 2 and related legislation (which regulate the eggs that can be sold in California). The letter also notes that the King Amendment is so poorly worded that as a literal matter it would prevent a state from regulating the production of any agricultural product--even in its own state--if any state in the Union does not regulate that product as strictly.
I think that's probably not the best reading of the King Amendment (although a textualist-minded court might disagree), but even the most likely alternative reading is highly problematic. The alternative reading would say that a state may regulate production of an agricultural product in that state but may not impose the same conditions on similar products from out of state, even if they are offered for sale in the importing state.
Rep. King has asserted that the King Amendment merely "clarifies and reaffirms" what he describes as a background constitutional principle forbidding states to regulate extraterritorially. But if he believes that, he either doesn't understand his own provision or doesn't understand the background law. It's true that a state cannot regulate wholly extraterritorial conduct, but every state has long had the authority to regulate the sale of products within the state, even if in doing so it uses as its regulatory criterion matters that occur in another state--so long as it does not violate the Dormant Commerce Clause.
Let me give an example of a state law that would clearly be valid under the Dormant Commerce Clause but invalid under the King Amendment. Suppose that a certain kind of mushroom is potentially toxic if it is not treated in a particular way while it is growing, so State X has a law banning the sale of that kind of mushroom unless it has been treated that way while growing. It is quite clear that this law would not violate the dormant Commerce Clause because it is neither discriminatory nor does it pose an "undue burden" on interstate commerce, in light of the health benefits of the regulation. So State X would ordinarily be permitted to apply the law to ban the sale of untreated mushrooms coming from State Y, which, by hypothesis, has no such law. Rep. King's provision does not "clarify" or "reaffirm" anything. It imposes a dramatic new limitation on each state's ability to protect the health and welfare of its citizens.
Is the King Amendment constitutional? Maybe. Certainly, there is federal power under the Commerce Clause to preempt much if not all state law governing the sale and production of agricultural products. But the King Amendment is not a straightforward federal preemption provision. It also tells states that their laws are, in some circumstances, preempted by the laws of their sister states. Is that permissible?
Some years ago I wrote a law review article addressing the circumstances under which one polity may validly "dynamically incorporate" the law of another polity--including some discussion of federal laws that dynamically incorporate state laws. (By "dynamic" incorporation, I mean that when the law of the incorporated jurisdiction changes, the law of the incorporating jurisdiction automatically changes as well.) There are many examples of federal law dynamically incorporating state law, typically but not always as a matter of common law doctrine. So--although my article identifies genuine policy costs that arise out of dynamic incorporation--this sort of vertical dynamic incorporation (a kind of delegation downward) is not per se forbidden.
Thus it might be thought that the King Amendment, if read in the narrower (but still quite sweeping) way I have described just above, would be valid as a combination of the federal power to preempt legislation combined with the federal power to dynamically incorporate state law. That is plausible, I admit, although it's a sufficiently novel form of federal legislation that I could also see a court finding it invalid as an unprecedented intrusion on state sovereignty. Moreover, even when two elements of a law are each individually constitutional, their combination may be unconstitutional. (An example from the Dormant Commerce Clause context is the combination of a permissible discriminatory subsidy with a permissible non-discriminatory tax: the combination of these two permissible laws was held unconstitutional in the West Lynn Creamery case.) In any event, even if the King Amendment is constitutional, it is so destabilizing of state regulatory authority, that it ought to be rejected on policy grounds--especially by lawmakers who care about federalism (and to their credit, some Repubicans have taken a stand against the King Amendment on just that basis).
Finally, although I was asked to sign the letter opposing the King Amendment because of my views about how humans treat other animals, my main concern is actually the legal form the provision uses and its implications for federalism generally. Indeed, as I have noted previously, I am ambivalent about many state animal welfare laws. I do not oppose them, but I doubt that they do much good and worry that some of them may even be counterproductive: by falsely assuring consumers that the animal foods they eat are the product of humane practices, animal welfare laws may entrench rather than dislodge existing practices and preferences (although as I noted last week, this is a complex empirical question). The main point here, though, is that whatever one thinks about animal welfare laws, the King Amendment goes well beyond that topic and does so in a very bad way.
I am curious, it seems to me that you don't need to seek an hypothetical. Has not California effectively regulated for the nation the implementation of the Clean Air Act at least with regard to vehicle emission standards? I know the King amendment, by its text, applies only to agricultural products, but to the extent its supporters are correct that it was merely a restatement of current law, would it not be obvious that California's emission standards would be unlawful?
Paul: You are ultimately right but I eschewed the Clean Air Act example because it is complicated. Section 209 of the Act permits California to impose its stricter-than-federal standards, while Section 177 permits other states to impose stricter-than-federal standards that are identical to California's. This doesn't quite make the case because Congress can authorize states to regulate in ways that the Dormant Commerce Clause would otherwise forbid. So if Rep. King were right that there is a background principle forbidding the application of the importing state's standards to products created out of state, then the existence of the Clean Air Act would not contradict that principle; it would only show that Congress had lifted it in this context.
In fact, I suppose the Clean Air Act could be used as the basis for constructing an argument that the King Amendment is valid (even if stupid and evil). The argument would say that in the Clean Air Act, Congress dynamically incorporated California law and applied it to other states. But I think the example is much more modest than that. The Clean Air Act provides for FEDERAL preemption of state law, with the law of a single sister state serving as a possible ground for escaping federal preemption. One might think that this is permissible but that the much more far-reaching dynamic-incorporation-preemption of the King Amendment is unconstitutional.

I liked the updated sounds, but the vocal tracks have been replaced by a feedback lead guitar sample, which desperately needed some pitch bend and vibrato to add the human touch. Unfortunately, this album sounded like it was produced by my XGMidi card. Still, after listening to it, I did want to buy my Allied Carpet!

Uncertainty Looms as State Legislature Reconvenes
When the state Legislature reconvenes Monday, February 5, legislators will continue working on the fiscal year 2018 budget as they begin working on the fiscal year 2019 budget. We will continue to inform you about the potential implications of any related legislation.
The State of Oklahoma Arts Council Funding
Since fiscal year 2008, the Oklahoma Arts Council's (OAC) state appropriation has been reduced by 46 percent. The inevitable result of steep and sustained reductions is the loss of services that benefit Oklahoma's arts and cultural sector.
Additionally, the uncertainty of the current fiscal year budget, which ends June 30, is adversely impacting Oklahoma Arts Council services. Legislators have not yet approved current year appropriations for most state agencies, including the Oklahoma Arts Council.
To keep members of the arts industry fully informed, below are examples of how budget cuts and budget uncertainties have impacted Oklahoma Arts Council services:
Number of grants reduced from 581 to 408
Communities served reduced from 122 to 71
12 OAC staff members managing responsibilities of 17 full-time positions
Leadership Arts is inactive
Oklahoma's New and Emerging Arts Leaders Network (ONEAL) is inactive
Cultural District Certification is inactive
Performing and Teaching Artist Rosters are inactive
Performing Arts Corps grants (for schools) are inactive
And, more.
Download our 2017 Impact Report to see additional details about the effects of compounding state budget cuts on Oklahoma Arts Council grants and programs.
Arts and Military Summit Offers Potential Resources for Oklahoma
Oklahoma Arts Council Arts Education Director, Jennifer Allen-Barron, made a short drive south of the Red River on January 29 to Killeen, Texas and the Fort Hood Army Base for a special summit focused on arts and the military.
Allen-Barron said the event broadened an important network as she connected with others who are using the arts to serve members of the military community. In addition to learning about unique arts and military programs, Allen-Barron heard from artists and others about their experiences in providing services to military members, and she spoke with several veterans who are active in the arts. She also heard from Second Lady Karen Pence, an artist and supporter of art therapy, who was a special guest speaker at the summit.
Presented by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) in partnership with the Texas Commission on the Arts, the Texas Arts and Military Summit was a program of the Creative Forces: NEA Military Healing Arts Network.
Allen-Barron heads up the Oklahoma Arts and the Military Initiative for the Oklahoma Arts Council.
Apply for a Challenge America Grant from the NEA
Grants of $10,000 from the National Endowment for the Arts can assist organizations with extending the reach of the arts to populations that have limited access to them.
Grants in the Challenge America category generally support projects that are smaller in scale and shorter in duration than projects that receive funding through the NEA's Art Works program. Funding assists with providing access to individuals who may be limited by geography, ethnicity, economics, or disability.
Supported in this category are only projects that feature a guest artist, the unified promotion of community-wide arts activities, or the development of professionally directed public art projects.
First deadline to apply for Challenge America grants is April 12.
Learn more about Challenge America grants here.
Bids to Be Accepted for Oklahoma Poetry Out Loud Program
Organizations interested in administering the statewide Poetry Out Loud competition will soon have the chance to bid on the program. An initiative of the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the Poetry Foundation, Poetry Out Loud gives thousands of high school students nationwide the opportunity to compete for cash prizes through memorizing and reciting poetry.
Funding for Poetry Out Loud is provided by the NEA via the Oklahoma Arts Council. The organization selected to administer the Oklahoma program will be responsible for outreach to schools, coordination with teachers, and the organization of regional and state-level contests. Additional details about the program are available here.
Look for an email announcement about bids in February. To indicate interest in submitting a bid, send an email to joel.gavin@arts.ok.gov.
Members of the Governor-appointed Oklahoma Arts Council board will select the partner organization from among submitted bids.
Save America Treasures Grants Offered by Park Service
Since 1999, the federal government's Save America's Treasures grant program has helped organizations nationwide preserve nationally significant historic properties and collections for future generations of Americans.
Through February 21, the National Park Service is accepting applications for the grant program. Nonprofit 501(c)3 organizations, units of state or local government, federally-recognized tribes, educational institutions, and other entities are eligible to apply.
Grants ranging from $25,000 to $500,000 will be provided to support preservation and/or conservation work on nationally significant historic collections and properties including artifacts, museum collections, documents, sculptures, and other works of art.

Q: Unable to Connect remote MYSQL server I have given all privileges to the root user, but I am unable to access remotely. I have given permission in firewall to access the port 3306 but I am unable to connect.
I am getting the error: your connection attempt failed for user 'root' from your host to server xxx.xxx.x.xx:3306

A: Look inside the my.cnf file for the bind address directive. This will tell mysql what IP to get access from.
# Instead of skip-networking the default is now to listen only on
# localhost which is more compatible and is not less secure.
bind-address            = 0.0.0.0

0.0.0.0 is there only to provide the most generic answer but for security reasons should be replaced by a specific address
Please note that the safe way to do this is to specify only some specific IP and not use a wildcard for that. This way only trusted clients will be able to login.
NOTE:
check if you granted to the user that will connect the permission on that IP (or from wildcard). If not you have to run these:
GRANT ALL privileges ON testDB.* TO 'testUSER'@'IP_Address' IDENTIFIED BY 'testPassword';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Adapt these commands to your environment

A: Writing up this answer as you said my comment was the answer you needed.
Your root user is probably 'root'@'localhost' which means it will only accept logins from localhost. Create 'root'@'%' to allow logins from anywhere.
I recommend not using % unless you really lock down the permissions. Even better though, use 'root'@'YOUR IP HERE'!

The continual failure of health secretary Jeremy Hunt to engage with NHS staff over their declining pay in real terms has sparked a four-hour strike across the health service in England on 24 November, Unite, the country's largest union, said today (Thursday 30 October).
Unite head of health Rachael Maskell said: "It is crystal clear that Jeremy Hunt and his government have pulled down the shutters on talks to improve the ever-eroding incomes of the 1.35 million-strong NHS workforce.
"It is a snub to the dedicated and hardworking health professionals that sustain the NHS day in, day out, 365 days-a-year, as demand for services soar.
Unite, along with other health unions and professional organisations, will strike from 07.00 to 11.00 on 24 November. An eight week work-to-rule will also start on 24 November and run to 19 January 2015.
Rachael Maskell said: "Our members are furious that the government vetoed the one per cent pay rise, as recommended by the independent Pay Review Body (PRB).
"Not one of the 1.35 million workforce is getting a cost of living increase and 600,000 are not even getting the one per cent 'pocket money' offer.
"Our members were buoyed up by the support they received from the public when they took action this month. Their brave stand certainly rattled ministers.
"Jeremy Hunt continues to mouth platitudes about how much he values NHS staff – and then refuses to talk to the health unions about how to rectify the stark fact that staff pay has been eroded by up to 15 per cent since the coalition came to power in 2010.
"Hunt likes to see himself as Mr Bountiful, when he is, in fact, Mr Scrooge. He needs to get around the table and talk constructively with the unions – otherwise more industrial action is on the cards.
In Northern Ireland, Unite health members will continue to work-to-rule while the union organises further stoppages. This follows the announcement that there would be no cost of living pay rise for healthcare workers under the 2014-15 health budget.
In Wales, talks are continuing between the health unions and the devolved government and no industrial action is currently planned for 24 November.
In Scotland, the devolved government has agreed to pay the one per cent pay rise to all staff as recommended by the PRB and to implement the 'living wage' by paying an extra £300 to low paid workers. Unite accepted this and, therefore, did not ballot its members in Scotland.

#MeToo shows harassment epidemic
Depending upon one's distance from all things Twitter, recent revelations of sexual harassment in Hollywood are either the tipping point we've been waiting for — or just another shark attack until the next one.
If you're former Fox News anchor Gretchen Carlson, whose book "Be Fierce" was released just as Harvey Weinstein was falling from grace, we're in the midst of a Malcolm Gladwell sequel.
And Carlson, who also is a former Miss America, is the female version of David, who ultimately brought down Goliath — Fox News creator and chief executive Roger Ailes — with a sexual harassment lawsuit that resulted in a $20 million settlement. She also opened the floodgates with her witness and testament, prompting strangers to stop her on the street.
In the past few days, thousands of other women have taken to social media to post their own experiences of sexual harassment using the hashtag #MeToo.
"Every woman has a story," says Carlson.
If you're a skeptical sort, on the other hand, you may lean toward the shark-attack line of thinking. This, too, shall pass softly into history, in other words, because inevitably something else will come along to demand our attention. Given the plethora of horrors, from the Las Vegas slaughter to the California fires, how does one sustain the necessary intensity to effect the sort of systemic cultural change that Carlson and others hope for?
Reports of rampant sexual harassment and assault in Hollywood have inspired women to speak up about their experiences, using the hashtag #MeToo. Actresses gave momentum to the campaign that has spread far beyond the entertainment industry.
The skeptics would have a valid point were it not for at least one statistically significant factor and one whale of a difference from all previous uprisings.
If true, as Carlson says, that every woman has a story, then, statistically, sexual harassment in the workplace is a plague, a disaster and a psychological assault weapon. Given that women constitute half the world's population — and that successful women mean successful families and societies — then any word or action that undermines their ability to conduct life without fear of sex-based exploitation or retribution should be considered an epidemic of opioid proportions.
Coincidentally, President Trump, whose campaign recently was subpoenaed for records related to multiple sexual-harassment allegations, is slated to declare the opioid crisis a national emergency.
The big-fish difference, meanwhile, is the president. The man who famously boasted of grabbing women by their nethers sparked the Women's March last January with his many crude, misogynistic comments.
Trump's lawyers have requested that they be allowed to postpone responding to the subpoena until his presidency ends, but feminist attorney Gloria Allred, who is representing some of the accusers, doesn't appear to harbor patience in her armory of legal tactics. To be continued.
When I interviewed Carlson recently, I confessed that I had always been a "guy-girl," raised by my father in a male-centric environment and, as a professional skeptic, had often assumed that most "victims" of sexual harassment were either not tough enough, lacked a sense of humor or were stupid about guy-tude.
It turns out I was also, according to Carlson, part of the problem. (You learn something new every day.) Next I told her that I had never been sexually harassed, then proceeded to relate at least two incidents in my adult working life that were textbook sexual harassment. I simply hadn't recognized them as such.
Indeed, I did what most women do.
I shrugged them off and stashed the experiences so deeply in my psyche's Junk folder that I forgot about them — until now. #MeToo.
Cases such as Carlson's — Ailes kept pushing her for sex so that she would "be good and better" — were more clear-cut than mine. One incident was hands-on, but the other, a series of episodes in the early 1990s, was environmental.
Strippers were brought in to our intimate public-relations office to perform for executives' birthday parties. I was told I could stay home those days, which I did, but then the CEO would call a meeting and show a video of the striptease on a large screen while my boss and a half-dozen male colleagues laughed.
It wasn't fun or funny.
Sexual harassment doesn't always mean a sexual advance, as Carlson pointed out. It's about power through sexual intimidation. Surely, women have a right to live and work without this predatory threat.
If enough fathers care about their daughters' future success; if enough brothers care about their sisters' safety; if enough women care enough about each other, #MeToo — or #BeFierce — won't be just another hashtag. And as long as Trump is considered one of the greatest offenders by so many women, this moment won't likely be just another bad day at the beach.

Q: Disable exporting data from the user interface Can we disable exporting data from the user interface actions in Kentico Managing form data?
Regards,
SA

A: Try setting the ShowObjectMenu property of the UniGrid to false. Detailed documentation available here.
The UniGrid definition should be the one found in this file (can't verify it as I currently don't have access to a Kentico instance): CMSModules\BizForms\Controls\BizFormEditData.ascx

A: Not all objects, pages, etc have the permissions available/coded to allow this restriction that I'm aware of within the user interface.  Take a look at the post I wrote on restricting download/export of anything out of Kentico.
Short story is you set the permissions at the IIS level on /CMS/CMSSiteUtils/Export directory to not allow the user running IIS app pool to access that directory.  This directory is where all exports, no matter what, get sent to.


A recent Installation of ours has seen Croft Castle go green. The installation of a Compact 200 (199 kW) boiler has them signed up to the non domestic renewable heat incentive.

RingPlus is at it again. They ran a promotion today, and are repeating it on Sunday September 20th. Once again the Diversity plan is being offered, as well as a new free plan which they are calling the Junior Flexible Free Plan.
More free loaner phones will be available as well. RingPlus members will also be able to enroll in a beta test of the Hotspot feature I wrote about the other day which they are now calling Pulse. That hotspot feature will allow members to get paid for using their phone as a public Wi-Fi hotspot.
The Junior Free plan is extremely limited in features and may be best suited for those of you who only need a cell phone for emergencies. The plan comes with just 10 minutes of talk, 10 SMS, and 10 MB of 4G LTE data to use per day. If you go over in any allotment you'll automatically be billed $2 for unlimited 24 hour usage in whichever allotment you went over with except for data. Data will get billed at a rate of 2¢ per MB or $20/GB which is a little on the expensive side. The Junior Plan requires a $5.00 minimum top up/account balance. The same top up is needed for the Diversity Plan, which seems to negate the usefulness of the Junior Free Plan.
I've covered the Diversity Plan previously, so to quickly reiterate, the plan includes 300 minutes, 500 texts, and 300 MB of 4G LTE data to use each month. If you go over in any category you are automatically billed $4.99, and you receive an additional 300 minutes of talk, 500 texts or 300 MB of 4G data depending on which category you went over with. So if you went over in talk, you'd get an additional 300 minutes to use. The extra allotments carry over for up to two months. As previously mentioned the plan requires a $5.00 top up.
I'd be interested in seeing what percentage of people signup for the Junior Free Plan as to me it doesn't seem to offer much compared to this Diversity plan.
All phones come with an additional free account top up of either $5.00 or $10.00 depending on if you activate a Free Plan or a monthly paid plan respectively.
RingPlus Pulse will allow you to potentially get paid when you use your phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot. When you're out in public and someone connects to your hotspot, they'll get rerouted to a RingPlus hotspot signup page. If the person purchases internet access through your hotspot, you'll split the profits of the sale equally with RingPlus. RingPlus has not mentioned pricing options for people who purchase internet access through your hotspot. Unlike the other promotions, the Pulse Hotspot promotion will run continuously from now through September 30th at 12:00 PM PDT.
I use their service with the free plan. Use it for emergencies and some quick business* purposes. The bad about Sprint network is their signal in my area, no bars but get service (calling near to my window).

Q: How am I misusing EvenQ, or, how are EvenQ and (Mod[2,#]==0)& differently evaluated? While working on a problem, I was using EvenQ in a RegionPlot.  I came across this interesting case (simplified here for specificity).  I expected to see a bunch of stripes, but got nothing:
RegionPlot[EvenQ[Floor[x]],{x,0,10},{y,0,10}]

However, it was fine if I used Mod to the same effect instead:
RegionPlot[Mod[Floor[x],2]==0,{x,0,10},{y,0,10}]

I also get the correct results if I substitute (Mod[Floor[#],2]==0&) for EvenQ.  I also tried a version with Assert[Head[#]==Integer]& included appropriately, and it did not ever raise an error, but the Mathematica evaluation model is still a bit mystical to me in some bits.

A: In version 10.1.0 under Windows:
RegionPlot[EvenQ[Floor[x]], {x, 0, 10}, {y, 0, 10}]

However as Carl Woll comments EvenQ evaluates to False when its argument is symbolic.  As a rule *Q functions return True or False at the time of evaluation; they do not remain in an unevaluated form waiting for the argument to be of the right type.
Presumably in the version of Mathematica you are using RegionPlot attempts a symbolic evaluation and therefore fails on EvenQ.
If you prefer the delayed behavior you can use a mediating function with _?NumericQ:
even[n_?NumericQ] := EvenQ[n]

even[x] /. x -> 4

True

Or, theoretically, Evaluated -> False may prevent symbolic evaluation:
RegionPlot[EvenQ[Floor[x]], {x, 0, 10}, {y, 0, 10}, Evaluated -> False]

How gamers are using technology (with community member interview)
April 25, 2015 Ryan Tucci Comments 0 Comment
Gamers are using technology every time they play a game, whether they play on a personal computer, console, or mobile device. But the act of gaming is not the only aspect of gaming that makes use of technology; it is also used to share information with the community. This technology encompasses both computer hardware and software and allows them to transcend their geographical limitations and share their experiences, knowledge and expertise globally from the comfort of their homes. I had the opportunity to sit down (virtually) with a member of the gaming community and discuss the current technological landscape in gaming.
My interviewee identified the need for a gaming rig. A gaming rig is a term used to describe a personal computer primarily dedicated to playing video games, and often has very powerful specifications. Having a powerful gaming rig ensures that you can play the most current games on the market that demand high performance systems. When asked about Minecraft specifically, my interviewee noted that a powerful gaming rig is not required, since the game is not very resource intensive. This makes Minecraft more accessible to users by allowing younger users to play the game on the family's home computer.
Impressive Gaming Rig
When thinking about building a gaming rig it is easy to start imagining top of the line components that will set people back thousands of dollars. However, this isn't always the case. My interviewee mentions that there are tons of guides online to building gaming rigs and doing so on a budget. Some of the more popular guides are from: tomsguide.com, pcmag.com, and various pc gaming message boards where people share deals and provide assistance to less experienced gamers about building computers. Building your own gaming rig from scratch allows the user to fine tune their machine and it often lowers the total cost significantly. Some online computer component stores are: newegg.com, tigerdirect.ca, and canadacomputers.com (for users like myself north of the border). When asked about places like BestBuy, my interviewee said these weren't usually the best places to purchase gaming rigs, since they are harder to upgrade and large scale commercial electronic stores are often viewed negatively by the gaming community.
Although the gaming rig is an important foundation for gamers, it isn't the only thing needed to contribute information to the community. Streaming game sessions is becoming extremely popular amongst the gaming community according to my interviewee. Gamers can stream gameplay over websites like Twitch.tv (the most popular gaming streaming service). To do this, gamers need to either have a video capture card built into their gaming rig, or something like a Live Gamer Portable or an Elgato. These external devices allow gamers to record their gameplay sessions to SD cards (the same cards that are used in digital cameras) and also to stream to Twitch.tv. At a cost of approximately $120-$150, these devices are not expensive for the average gamer looking to record their gaming sessions and prove to be extremely powerful tools to get information to the community.
Elgato (left) and Live Gamer Portable (right)
According to my interviewee, watching other gamers play games is quickly becoming a popular past time, especially with the invention of esports games like League of Legends and DoTA 2. Esport games are competitive games and are often viewed by spectators like traditional sporting events. These games are very difficult and have a high learning curve. According to the League of Legends Stats and Rankings, League of Legends professionals are playing at the highest level (usually the top 0.02% of the entire games population). They are featured on Twitch.tv and play on fully sponsored teams. When gamers play on a professional level this often supports them financially as a career. The North American League Cup Series offered a prize purse of $1 million in 2014 (Ze, 2014). Since most gamers are not at this level of expertise, they use Twitch.tv to learn better strategy and adopt better skills to improve their own game play. This was only possible with technology like Twitch.tv since gaming isn't shown on traditional television.
League of Legends Championship Series live event
Even the communication software that we used to conduct the interview (Skype) was mentioned in our interview about technology. The ability for gamers to communicate verbally, either instructions or socially, has had a huge impact on the communication and collaborative nature of games. Skype is a popular and affordable (free) form of voice communication software utilized by more than just gamers. Professionals and everyday users looking to avoid costly telephone bills use this software as well. Among gamers, my interviewee mentioned software like TeamSpeak, Ventrilo, and Mumble are used instead of Skype. For gamers, these 3 softwares are popular because of their push to talk capabilities, allowing communication to happen only when a certain button on the keyboard is pressed. This avoids any unwanted background noise, breathing, or other distractions that naturally happen when speaking. Unlike Skype however, these are often based on a monthly subscription fee, since they are hosted on servers by independent service providers.
As you can see, the gaming community makes extensive use of technology, not only to play games but to share information within the community. It is important that gamers remain up to date with technological trends since games constantly require newer and better hardware to run effectively. The good news however, is that technology is becoming increasingly affordable and there are plenty of options available to gamers to purchase and access new technology, as my interviewee has explained.

Q: How do you reload an iframe with ReactJS? My ReactJS component contains an iframe. In response to an event in the outer page, I need to reload the iframe. If the user has navigated to another page in the iframe, I need to reset it to the URL that it had when I first loaded the page. This URL is available in this.props.
I've tried using forceUpdate(). I can see that this causes the render method to run, but the iframe doesn't get reset - presumably because React can't tell that anything has changed.
At the moment I'm appending some random text to the iframe's querystring: this URL change forces React to re-render the iframe. However this feels a bit dirty: the page within the iframe is beyond my control so who knows what this extra querystring value might do?
resetIframe() {
    console.log("==== resetIframe ====");
    this.forceUpdate();
}

public render() {
    console.log("==== render ====");

    // How can I use just this.props.myUrl, without the Math.random()?
    let iframeUrl = this.props.myUrl + '&random=' + Math.random().toString();

    return

        <button onClick={() => { this.resetIframe(); }}>Reset</button>

}

(I'm using TypeScript too, if that makes a difference.)

A: I'd create a state variable with the random, and just update it on resetIframe:
state = {
     random: 0
}
resetIframe() {
    this.setState({random: this.state.random + 1});
}

public render() {
    return

        <button onClick={() => { this.resetIframe(); }}>Reset</button>

}

Here is a fiddle working: https://codesandbox.io/s/pp3n7wnzvx

A: In case of Javascript frameworks and technologies, If you update the key, then it'll automatically reload the iFrame. So you just want to increase (or Random number) the value of key for your action.
state = {
    iframe_key: 0,
    iframe_url: 'https://www.google.com/maps' //Your URL here
}
iframeRefresh() {
    this.setState({iframe_key: this.state.iframe_key + 1});
}

public render() {
    return (

            <button onClick={() => { this.iframeRefresh(); }}>Reload Iframe</button>

    );
}

A:

use This "Router location Key" each click will get random value, whenever to navigate to here this value will get change then iframe will get the refresh

A: Updating the source causes a reload without causing a rerender.
import React, { useState, useRef } from 'react'

function renderIframe({src}){
    const iframeRef = useRef()
    return <>

                (iframeRef.current.src += '')}>Reload</span
           </>
}

A: You could create a new component which just loads you iframe. In your main component you load it and give it a update prop which you ignore in you iframe component. If you set the prop with a state variable, your component will reload. You can take a look at Diogo Sgrillo's answer for the setState method.
You could also check with shouldcomponentupdate() if the prop changed and only update if it changed.

A: Maybe a bit late here :) Just a side note: When you update state based on previous state you should pass a function to setState:
resetIframe() {
    this.setState(prevState => {random: prevState.random + 1});
}

Big thank-you to all who contributed to setting up this website, & Hi Carys & Julian.
Don't forget that Sunday 11th November will be a morning when we think & pray about the missions we support.
Hello! What a lovely way to keep in touch with you seeing as I'm in a different country and all. I hope you're all well and enjoying Wales. England is cold and full of people who suddenly like rugby!!
Having finished working for Ambassadors in Sport in May I enjoyed a month off before going to the US with them to coach Americans the sport they call "soccer". I saw God do some amazing stuff in, through and around me. Some examples being (apart from getting a tan which is a miricle in itself!) the wonderful nature I saw – from the huge, beautiful waterfalls to 2 giant dragonflies having 'fun' in mid air; the many kids giving their lives to God; and the chance to stand in front of over 400 kids over the 5 weeks and tell them that I knew God loves me and that He loves them too, no matter what mistakes we make He's faithful and never stops loving us. Awesome God. Awesome privilege!
Since coming back I've seen how much I've grown this past year. In church I am leading worship and trying to teach some new songs (at first it was quite daunting being up there alone but now I'm gutted when someone else gets to do it!!!), I'm due to do some kind of pastoral course in January, am doing a theology course, enjoying helping at youth club and looking to what the future holds with excitement and ambition! More importantly I know God better and want to know Him even more!
So, I'm glad I get to contact you guys via t'net. Let me know your news – The Family keep me pretty well informed and it's cool to hear Sparx is going great!
Hello everyone. Thought I would jump in and try this out even though I have just got out of bed (it's 14.20, but I am working nights tho, in case you think I am really that much of a slob). Well done Liz, the web site looks really good and is very easy to use, although I could not access the map. Hope to see you all this Sunday, going to have some breakfast now.
Firstly, I would like to apologise for not writing up a report of last week, 24th-30th. I don't have a good excuse, so I won't give one! Sorry.
But you are very lucky; you get two weeks squashed into one sheet today!
I was in college on Monday and Tuesday both weeks, the first and hopefully only, double sessions of the term. From now on we are strictly once a fortnight!
College was good, policies and procedures – yey, essential but very boring!
On Tuesdays we are doing a module called biblical themes. We looked at different world views and theologies, very interesting!
On Wednesday I spent my first session at the TLC after school club. They have around 25 children along to the group every Monday and Wednesday, where they play games, do quizzes, make crafty stuff and design posters using the computers. It is a fun session for all involved. The hope is that I can encourage planning meetings and the use of a programme so the sessions become more organised and directed.
Deb led the youth cell group in the evening, and although I think most of the group were half asleep due to a very late night the night before, I felt it was a constructive session, and everyone learnt something.
On Thursday I tried the school again, but my contact wasn't in all day, and Friday was an inset day. Hmmm, never mind, there is always next week!
We ran the second younger youth group (that really needs a name- ideas on a postcard please!) on Thursday evening, with 6 girls at the TLC cafe. The group went well at the cafe, and lessons were learnt with the lay out of the room. We talked about Jesus and played some games.
Friday was spent moving a load of stuff from my parents house in to Hannah's old house. It was lots of fun, but I did feel exhausted come Friday evening! Jon was at a wedding on Friday, so we weren't able to do the detached session.
That brings us back to Wednesday again, I spent Wednesday moving what I thought were the last of my bits over to 250 Elm Drive, and then set up for the evening youth cell social before heading out to the TLC after school club. I sat in the computer room during most of the session, which was a really good chance to get to know more of the young people individually. The session went really quickly but was great fun – the young people are really lovely, although I did meet one horror who stamped on my foot. Oh the joys of youth work!
I finally contacted the school on Thursday morning, and organised my start date as next Thursday. I am still feeling really excited about the schools work, so please pray I don't become despondent – I need to remain on my toes and keep striving for great things at the school.
Friday was a really exciting day –Jon Rowlands and I went out on a detached session, in search of Keryn's house – Jon asked for directions from two young people on Elm drive, and they walked and talked with us for about ten minutes as they led us to the right house!
We walked on from the house up to the park and skate park on Holly Road. We found a group of young people who were the sort of emo/goths who hate to be labelled emo/goths!
They were a very sound bunch who stood and chatted to us for over an hour.
We talked about all sorts of stuff, mostly random, until my hands became too cold to stay out any longer and we went home. I must remember gloves next time!
Big thanks to Jon for doing the detached sessions with me. I think their going well, and hope implement some of Jon's and my ideas to reach more young people more regularly.
Please pray for the year 11 students I will be mentoring from next Thursday, and also for me in that situation, that the work will be effective and worthwhile.
Please continue to pray for the young girls who are coming to the Thursday youth group – that they can grow at their own pace of understanding, and that I won't assume anything in the answers I give them.
Please continue to pray for Deb as she leads the Wednesday night group – she is doing a great thing really well.
Pray also for the young people we meet during the detached work, and for Jon and myself to say what God wants us to speak into their situations and the confidence to approach new groups.
Please pray to for my commitment to college, I'm really enjoying the work, and don't want to neglect my studies. I really want to pass!!!!
Thank you for your continued support in the work going on in Ty-Sign. If you would like any more information on anything that is going on please ask!
I have changed my mobile number – if you haven't contacted me in the last week check with me that you have the right one! Please come and visit me – I love visitors! Just give me a bell before you turn up! Thanks!
This week is described by the college as an induction week, and it has been the first week when I have actually felt that I have started doing Agape youth work. The ideas and plans became groups and sessions, and meetings happened with outside agencies that mean I can do all of the things I've been thinking about and talking about for months.
Sparx was on Monday, we had a bumper number of kids turn up, hitting about 16 I think, and it went really well.
I finally met with the assistant head of the comprehensive on Tuesday. It was interesting to find out that the area they needed someone to be working was with the higher achievers in all years, but especially in year 11 as they approach their GCSE's. As a result I will be meeting with 24 expected high achievers next week (hopefully) and setting up monthly mentoring sessions for the young people. How exciting!
Unfortunately I had neglected to write 'Tea at the Dexter's' in my diary, (Sorry again Deb!) so I missed that on Tuesday evening.
Deb led the youth cell on Wednesday evening, as we looked at Revelation 1. It was a good session with questions flying everywhere.
Thursday evening was the first younger cell group, we had a good number for the first night, although there were some concerns by parents about it being in someone's house, so we need to think about using the TLC café for this group.
On Friday I did a final tidy up of Karen's house before she came back. At 11 I had my first line manager meeting with Tim. I spent the afternoon catching up on some reading for university on Monday and then later in the evening Jon Rowlands and myself went out on to the streets to do some detached work. While we were out we met a group of young people who at first seemed very wary of two adults coming to say hi, (as they should be!) but when we saw them a little later on they chatted to us a little more.
We also met the police community support officer, Jason, who may well pop in for a cup of tea on Sunday morning! Say hi! It was a horrible evening for detached work with the rain but it turned out well. This is going to become a regular activity on a Friday evening, and with another volunteer/more time put in it will hopefully happen on a Thursday evening as well.
I am in college on Monday and Tuesday next week, but will returning for the TLC committee meeting on Tuesday evening. On Wednesday I will be volunteering in the TLC café, going along to the youth group in the evening, and then up to youth cell with Colin and Deb.
I hope that the meeting I am waiting for at the school will be on Thursday morning, and there is the younger cell in the evening. This is our first look at who Jesus is!
On Friday I may/may not be in the school in the morning, but will otherwise be found in the TLC café. With the detached session in the evening my week is complete!
· Please pray for the younger group as we take a look at the bible, for some it is the first time, for others the 101st time! Pray for consideration to those to whom it is new, and for the chance to go a little deeper with those who have heard it all before.
· Pray also for the detached sessions, primarily that we are safe, but also for the young people – that they will enter into conversation with us, and get to know us a bit.
· Praise God for his provision this week, in volunteers, petrol, and satsuma's!!!
This is the 2nd I wrote – obviously!!
What happened – I spent most of Monday writing up some information about schools outreach work to take into the meeting with the assistant head at Risca Comprehensive School.
It was also the first Sparx of the new term, and I thought I was doing really well when I was there, with costume, early! Unfortunately I realised I had forgotten the promised pizza, so I had to run back up the hill and cook the pizza's, making me only just time for the start. My apologies to everyone at Sparx, I will remember the pizza's in the future!
Sparx was great; the kids seemed to enjoy themselves! I had the opportunity to speak to a few of the older members about the younger youth club, and had some positive feedback.
On Tuesday I saw Tim drive passed me on the way to work as I sat at a bus stop waiting for my lift to Oxford Brookes University for the residential 'community week'.
The three days were mostly uneventful, we had a bunch of lectures, most of which proved to be a bit of a waste of time, but some really useful lectures and lots of information and positive meetings with lecturers. We went down to the pub on Wednesday evening to watch the football, and I sat outside with the other non English, non football fanatics and laughed at the facial expressions of those watching. Fortunately England won, and there were no tears!
I did get the opportunity to talk to some of the first year Bristol CYM students, one of whom has a placement at St Paul's in the centre of Newport, and another who was born and brought up in Cwmcarn.
On Friday I finally got through to Mrs Cooper, and arranged a meeting. I finished off the schools info I had started on Monday, and visited the TLC café. I sat and chatted with Glyn and some of the women in the café, and then with Cindy when she arrived with the fruit and eggs.
I had had the intention on Thursday evening of going out with some flyers about the youth group, but a combination of not having the addresses of the young people and being so tired after the residential meant that I put it off. As I write this it is Friday, and I will be going out tomorrow morning with the flyers to get them out before the end of the week.
My meeting with Mrs Cooper has been arranged for Tuesday afternoon. Some of the week depends on the outcome of this meeting, although I expect they will ask me to complete a CRB check before I can properly go in to the school in the capacity that I would like to.
On Wednesday morning I will be going into the TLC café in attempts to meet some of the young mums and other women who hang around in there.
In the evening there is the youth cell group. Thursday will eventually be spent with the school and students, although this depends on the meeting outcomes.
There is the younger youth cell in the early evening, and after that I will hopefully be doing a hour or so of detached outreach work, similar to that which will be taking place in the school, but around the estate with another adult. I will be approaching some people to help with this!!
On Friday I will be catching up on some bits and pieces and meeting Tim for my first line manager meeting – exciting!!
+ Please continue to pray that Mrs Cooper is open to suggestions with the school work, and that we can find a way to benefit the students in the greatest way possible. Please pray that I clearly communicate what I need to say at the meeting, so we can all be clear on what is available and possible.
+ The residential was positive, please pray that I can cope with the extra demands on me as a second year – I'm excited about it! Also that I can get hold of the books I need for the first term.
+ Continue to pray about whether you would like to be involved in the younger cell (and any other activities) and let me know ASAP if you can be involved.
What happened – This was my first week of working with Agape, so like a first week in any job it was a bit random! I have made multiple forms, created beautiful child protection policies, and invented programs for the youth cells groups, been to meetings, won the three legged race, made phone calls and written letters.
I met with Deb Dexter to discuss the youth cell group, and the possibility of starting a younger cell for years 6-8, and continuing the older group for those in years 9-13. It was a very constructive and we came away having made some decisions and identified some prayer points for the youth cells.
I have been trying to contact the assistant head of Risca Comprehensive this week, to set up a meeting in response to the letter I received from her before the summer holidays. I haven't been able to talk to her yet, and although they seemed eager for me to visit the school and support their students we do need to get this rolling soon.
I have moved in to Karen's house on Thistle way. Karen and her husband are away for a few weeks so I guess I'm house sitting for a little while.
If you want to pop in for a cup of tea/coffee/coke/lemon squash/milk/water give me a ring, you are always welcome!!!
Then there was the sports day. We met some students from Risca Comprehensive, and while Joe did the energetic bit of playing football with the boys I sat and chatted to two girls who had come up to the astro turf with them. It was a good day all round, and although we came fifth of seven churches I think we supported our participants greatly and technically should have won!! But we're not competitive!!!
Next week I will try the school again and try to set up a meeting for Friday.
On Tuesday I start Uni with a residential 'community week' in Oxford. I am there until Thursday, so I won't be at the cell groups.
I will be visiting parents and young people in the year 6-8 age bracket on Thursday evening to inform and invite them to the younger cell (that needs a new name) on the following Thursday.
On Friday I hope to spend sometime with Tim on the estate and meeting with Mrs Cooper at Risca Comp.
+ Thank God for Karen's willingness to let me stay in her house – being on the estate full time is something I was praying would be possible.
+ Pray that Mrs Cooper is open to suggestions with the school work, and that we can find a way to benefit the students in the greatest way possible.
+ Please pray also that I settle back in university well, and that God will enable all the crazy ideas I have in my head to settle down and that he will tell me which ones to move forward with.
+ I was going to ask you to pray for somewhere to hold the first couple of younger youth cell, but praise God Shelia has come to the rescue again.
+ Please think and pray about whether you would like to be involved in the younger cell (and any other activities) – we need to find a/many volunteers to spare an hour a week or if there are a few of you, one hour a month etc, because I can't be the only leader at the group. You can be as involved as you want to be – we will take anyone from sitters in the corner to squash makers to session leaders. There will be a rota appearing at the back, please write your names up if you want to help out.
This has been a great week to settle in. Thanks to all of you who have helped! It's great to be back!

Next year's NPE2012 international plastics exposition will be so big that the reusable scrap generated in just one day by equipment operating on the exhibit floor will amount to tens of thousands of pounds.
To prevent the waste of this valuable material, SPI: The Plastics Industry Trade Association has appointed Maine Plastics, Inc., Zion, IL, USA, as the official recycler for NPE2012. The company is charged with the collection, separation, transportation, and reprocessing of production-line scrap, as well as such other waste as the PET bottles left behind by more than 60,000 visitors. NPE2012 is the fifth consecutive edition of the triennial NPE for which Maine Plastics has provided these services.
Organized by SPI, NPE2012 will take place April 1-5, 2012 at the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) in Orlando, Florida. Maine Plastics will coordinate with SPI, the OCCC, exhibitors, and vendors in administering the recycling program. Taking part in the program will cost exhibitors no more than if they used standard trash removal services, noted David Spitulnik, president of Maine Plastics.
