SOUL TAKER
After long years in the line of duty as a 'Soul Taker', Kate is worn out.
When she gets a new job offer from the 'Powers Above', she accepts her new job as a Guardian gratefully without knowing that her teacher is one of the most powerful beings in existence, the Archangel Raphael.
Along with Raphael, she takes on her new task and the connection between them grows.
Raphael helps, protects and supports Kate, but suddenly, she becomes a target for the Demons of Hell.
Raphael realizes that Kate means more to him than he expected, which causes him to fight furiously against danger. If he fails, Kate's future will contain eternal darkness, evil, and torture.
Sundance is a promising young Warrior Angel, the first in centuries to join the Divine Army. With the help of one of the most powerful Archangels, her skill and talent develop, allowing her to master some of the most difficult tasks that face her kind.
Sundance, under the supervision of the 'Council of Twelve' seeks to prove that she deserves her unusual gifts in the eternal fight between good and evil. Follow her adventures as she discovers love, fights the good fight, and finds herself in the heat of battle trying to keep her wings from being singed.
DEMON TRACKER
Zepheira is the best Demon Tracker working for the Good side. With her unusual looks, her phenomenal sense of smell, and her bravery, she quickly draws 'The Big 7's attention to her talent. They hire her to find one of them. Leaving her familiar surroundings and regular work environment unsettles Zepheira at first. But the challenge to prove herself and to increase the reputation of her infallibility tempts her. She is convinced she will be a great asset to 'The Big 7'. Little does she know she will be a much greater asset in Heaven's fight against Evil. Zepheira suddenly becomes more than a hired tracker. She finds herself an important pawn in the game of love, heat, and fire. Will her courage and sacrifice be sufficient to dance with the flames?
When Centriel roams the Earth in a dark mood and atypical despair, in a mountain clearing, far from humankind, he unexpectedly discovers a runner, followed by a petite hunter. The way the woman treats the giant fugitive amuses the Archangel, but he quickly learns that neither of them are what they seem to be.
Simin Arnatt is an extraordinary woman. Her occupation as a Bounty Hunter takes her all over the world, as she follows her prey to the most unusual places. She would have never expected to meet the famous Centriel while on a hunt. When he offers to help her, she feels the enormous attraction, but she knows, with the secret she holds, she could never dare to hope for love.
Neither of them could guess that with her next assignment, Hell is breaking loose…
Dream Walker
Koyu thought she had done her duty, but deep inside she knows it will never be over. She is bound to her master forever and will have to execute his every command. But when he demands she'll invade his sworn enemy's dreams, she chooses to rebel.
Koyu risks her existence to help the 'other side' by purposely disobeying her master's orders.
Koyu knows she'll pay with her life for her impertinence. Is there, indeed, no hope for her?

The Council Of Twelve Series Continues With Book 5 In The Series – DREAM WALKER
November 3, 2022 November 3, 2022 ~ aurorajeanalexander ~ 4 Comments
After quite some waiting time now, many life changes, and a lot of traveling, I can finally come up with some news:
The Council of Twelve Series continues now!
Check out the four books that are already available:
Simin Arnatt is an extraordinary woman. Her occupation as a Bounty Hunter takes her all over the world, as she follows her prey to the most unusual places. She would have never expected to meet the famous Centriel while on a hunt. When he offers to help her, she feels the enormous attraction, but she knows, with the secret she holds, she could never dare to hope for love.Neither of them could guess that with her next assignment, Hell is breaking loose…
It's time. After quite some delay, finally, the time has come! A new book is on the horizon, 'The Council of Twelve' series continues.
Twelve of the most powerful individuals in Existence, Leaders of the 'Divine Army', fighting the eternal war of 'Good vs. Evil', form 'The Council of Twelve'.
Each of them is a unique source of strength, a spiritual entity, and embodies the good side with integrity, love, and compassion.
Each one of the members of the Council is precious, carefully selected, and distinctly equipped to fight the dark side… and each one of these members is inchoate within himself.
Despite the incomparable beauty of the creatures, each one of them is missing a crucial part to strengthen, support, and complete himself to fight the eternal war…
Three Council Members have found the missing part that made them whole, and even stronger. They changed after they were completed. And their change not only brought them additional powers from an external source, but also power within, empathy, compassion, tenderness, love, passion, and so many things, they have never been able to experience before.
The new book introduces a new character: Koyu Bellamy. She's not only breathtakingly beautiful, but she's also an unknown power source in herself – and a horrible danger to the 'Council of Twelve'.
In Koyu's upcoming story you will meet not only 'The Council of Twelve', but you will re-connect with some of the characters mentioned in the first four books in the series.
Koyu's story is thrilling, you will hope, keep your fingers crossed, you will love her and you will fear for her… and sometimes you might doubt her a little bit…
Stay tuned for the upcoming milestones:

The Council Of Twelve A – Z / A For Anghariel
October 17, 2022 October 6, 2022 ~ aurorajeanalexander ~ 3 Comments
When it comes to writing, with four published books and the fifth in the series in line, I'm sometimes feeling a little bit like I need to keep things in my books a secret, fearfully protecting my books, because I could give away too much to the ones who haven't read 'The Council of Twelve' series yet.
But aren't the background stories, the little details 'behind the scenes' the interesting part of our work? There are numerous characters in these books, twelve of them the main pillars, carrying my stories.
Picture courtesy of Pixers.us
And that's why I decided to start a new blog series about the Council of Twelve, going through the alphabet, starting with Anghariel…
Let me show you the notes I took before I started to write 'The Council of Twelve' series. On Anghariel's character sheets it says:
Looks Anghariel's skin and hair were gray; his eyes were the purest silver. He is tall and slim, his muscle tone finely defined but not too visible. He moves elegantly like a tall cat, comparable to a cheetah
Wings Grey, each feather surrounded by orange
XXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Personality Bubbly, humorous, playful personality. He's a big practical joker and loves to play tricks
Special Powers What many don't know is that Anghariel started as XXXXXXXXXXXX and has kept his abilities even when he became an Archangel. Additionally, Anghariel is, together with Centriel, one of the most virtuous and fast flyers amongst Angelkind.
Consort Despite his unusual looks Anghariel is a huge women magnet and enjoys spending time with as many girlfriends as possible,XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX He hasn't found his consort yet.
(Of course, the one or other information is X-ed out because I don't want to give away too much information)
Now, Anghariel is an enormously strong individual, one of the younger members of 'The Council of Twelve', but nevertheless, powerful, compassionate, and helpful.
Anghariel has his quirks, but he's also an Archangel and a member of 'The Council'. Despite his bubbly nature, Anghariel has his depths and is highly sensitive. Not many know about his past, and outside of His Brotherhood, nothing is known about it.
Anghariel might be one of the few Archangels in existence, who suffers from PTSD after a severe traumatic event that turned him into the superficially laughing joking 'buddy' with the boyish grin. Still, deep inside, he considers himself 'broken'.
I would recommend, starting to read the Council of Twelve series to find out more about these twelve powerful individuals and their consorts, their stories, and the eternal fight 'Good vs. Evil'. You will fall in love with them all, I promise.

Soul Taker Secrets – The Council Of Twelve Is Fantasy!
June 6, 2022 June 2, 2022 ~ aurorajeanalexander ~ 6 Comments
I was asked a short while ago: "The Council Of Twelve" series is a series of religious books, right?" I almost laughed. However, I kept my cool and smiled. "No, it's not. I'm writing a YA fantasy series!" And it is important to me that my readers take it as such!
The Council of Twelve series is a work of fiction, it won't proclaim truth or even faith.
The Catholic Bible mentions seven Archangels, some of them named, and some are not. According to old scriptures, four Archangels' names are known: Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, and Uriel. I 'borrowed' these names and added eight more Archangels to form the 'Council of Twelve'. (Also, who tells me, these names are correct? We know them, yes. But I doubt very much anyone on Earth can remember, that our Lord God named four of his Archangels Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, and Uriel). Still, through history, these names, in connection with a strong, powerful creature called an 'Archangel', represent the 'ultimate' Good.
In my series, I wanted the 'ultimate Good'. I wanted the fight 'Good vs. Evil'… And angels and demons are the ones fighting that war. The characters of Archangels, angels, demons, and their respective hierarchies give me freedom any fantasy writer can only dream of!
Now, while Michael has on occasion been called the 'Angel of Death', others called him the 'Archangel of War and Conflict', on further websites and in articles he was the 'Archangel of Peace and Safety'… who is right? Nobody knows for sure. And that's why Archangel Michael in 'The Council of Twelve' series, is exactly, what I made him; the strongest, most powerful individual in existence, except his creator, of course, the oldest existing Archangel, and the leader of the Council.
Who said, Raphael was 'the Healer'? In other essays, he's described as 'the Guardian', and nobody can tell for sure, what and who he is, right? I made him both; the protector and keeper of the Healers and the Guardians…
It seems different sources are clear about Gabriel being 'The Messenger'… and I kept it that way. The bible is clear about Gabriel being the Archangel sent to inform Virgin Mary about her being the mother of God's son. Gabriel was also the Archangel who announced the birth of Jesus of Nazareth in Bethlehem.
As for Uriel, nobody is sure about his sources and roots. He's described as 'the Fire of God', in other articles he's been called the 'balance of the world', and other sources claim him to be 'the Angel of Death'. It is said in certain books, that Uriel was the Archangel who killed the firstborn sons of Egypt when the Pharao didn't let Moses' people leave the country. The bible only talks about the 'Angel of Perdition', no name was mentioned there. But since it was talked about a powerful angel with a 'fire sword', it was assumed that Uriel was the one fulfilling God's orders in that case. But again, nobody can tell for sure. In 'The Council of Twelve' series, Uriel is God's beloved son, made out of fire and ashes, with flames in his wings. My Uriel is an Archangel existing in my fantasy… he's caring, loving, and protecting, and he looks fabulous.
I purposely refrained from using any further Archangel names as they were mentioned in additional articles, books, or the 'lost books of the bible', the Apocrypha. I made up eight Archangels, born in my imagination and fantasy, each one strong, powerful, unique, and with his own set of skills. Each of these Archangels brings his own personality, talents, and voice into the 'Council of Twelve' and completes his brothers. Each of the Archangels is good to the core, fights the evil side, and protects his troops. They all fight, discuss, plan, protect… sometimes they joke, they laugh, they support each other, and they fall in love.
I have been writing about doing 'research' for 'The Council of Twelve' series. We are talking about the list of demons of the Ars Goetia, which helped me get my 'Evil' side organized and set up. The Good side needs an antagonist, and Lucifer doesn't fight all alone. Again, we aren't talking about a fact list… We're talking about a lot of fantasy being involved in getting 'The Council of Twelve' series created. Of course, I didn't take every demon's name and transferred the creature into my book. I made some of them up, I gave them a voice, a look, a truly hateable creature. But all this is rooted in my fantasy and imagination.
If an author takes fantastic creatures and magic and transfers both into our existing world, in combination with falling in love and kissing, the genre is called 'Paranormal Romance'. The Council of Twelve series is taking place in Heaven, on Earth, and in Hell, two of the three places are unknown to living organisms, which made me consider 'my genre' as 'Fantasy'. There are too many unknown factors to call it 'Paranormal Romance'.
Now, we know what the genre is called, but I downright refuse to consider 'The Council of Twelve' series 'Christian or Religious Fantasy'. There's too much fantasy in these books to truly consider them religious. It is an undeniable fact that the author of these books is a believer in God. It's clearly readable that the Creator of the World has my highest respect. I never describe Him in detail. When He shows up within the stories, only His voice is mentioned. Heaven and Hell are formed and described after my imagination.
I'm not going into religious discussions, I don't use bible quotes, and I am not going to argue with anyone about whether my fantasy is the 'real' Heaven, Hell, or story. The Good side is, what's close to my heart, and you won't find anything better to fight for the 'Good side' than a dozen Archangels with their love interests. Not to talk about the fact that I added a bit of humor to the stories, and I expect my readers to laugh, enjoy the stories and fall in love with the characters, just like other authors do. I'd like my readers to be entertained, and not to think too intensely about religious beliefs when reading 'The Council of Twelve' series. Read, be entertained, and enjoy.

Soul Taker Secrets – Simin's Birthday Surprise
May 19, 2022 May 3, 2022 ~ aurorajeanalexander ~ 2 Comments
It was Simin's Birthday, and Katie had planned to surprise her with a meal. Zepheira told her about a dish containing chicken meat, fruit, and rice. That sounded wonderful, and Katie decided to cook that for the entire Council of Twelve and their consorts, including Sundance, of course. It wasn't easy to keep Simin away, since she was, first of all, the best cook of the consorts, and also, to keep it secret from her. Zye decided to support Katie, while Sundance made sure, Simin was decently distracted, so she wouldn't get suspicious.
It worked wonderfully, and Katie and Zepheira earned their praise for this meal. In case you feel like cooking it, here we go. Feel free to let me know how you like it.

THE SCREEN; A Submarine Drama. Philo Vance's Deductions.
Under the odd title of "Men Without Women" there is at the Roxy this week a stirring submarine drama. It was filmed under the direction of John Ford with a keen eye to realism, the narrative itself having been subscribed by Mr. Ford and James K. McGuinness with dialogue by Dudley Nichols. It is an absorbing pictorial study in which suitable comedy relief comes to the rescue of incisive dramatic interludes.It is quite evident throughout this picture that Mr. Ford has had competent naval assistance in handling his scenes. In showing the war croft on the surface of the China seas looking for a sunken submarine that has been rammed by a steamer, this director takes advantage of swelling seas and counter-lighting.The characters are wonderfully real, whether they are the highstrung nervous men, the sullen specimens or those who keep their heads and think of others as well as themselves. The voices as well as a variety of sounds, including the gurgling water as the sailors go to and fro in the sunken, submersible, are mighty effective. The audibility of these sequences makes them far more impressive than they would be in a silent film, for in the old-fashioned form of screen story the natures of the men could never be developed as they are in this production.After one young fellow is shot by Ensign Price, who is in command of this S13, the tension of the story is such that it needs the spasms of levity accorded it. There are men who growl at the economy of oxygen and others who side with Chief Torpedoman Burke as he shuts off the tank. Some of them jabber about experiences of the past and one man tells of a convict who spent six months trying to dig himself out of prison and of the man eventually coming up in the warden's office. Amid the snarling and praying one hears a sailor joke about not having his umbrella.The radio operator succeeds in at least listening to signals from above. He is a man with a sense of humor who goes about his job in this damaged submarine in the same stoic manner he might if the craft were safe on the surface. He jibes at his fellows. Another fine character is Burke, around whom the story is written.Burke, who changed his name from Quartermaine, is supposed to have been the officer if command of the Royal Scot when she was carrying a British Field Marshal across the North Sea. It is quite evident that this incidental angle of the yarn was inspired by the sinking of the Hampshire with Lord Kitchener. Burke tells how he told his sweetheart that the Field Marshal was going to be a passenger aboard the warship and it is presumed that the young woman proudly confided this valuable information to somebody who let it become known to the enemy. And that is why Quartermaine joined Uncle Sam's navy as Burke.Some of the tense stretches are those devoted to the rescue of the men imprisoned in the submersible. The divers are perceived going over the side and after a while they signal with their hammers on the hull of the damaged craft. There is the revived hope among the submarine crew, who are up to their knees in water. These passages are reminiscent of the ill-fated British submarine, K13, which went down in a Scottish port. There is the eventual shooting out of a torpedo tube of the first man, then another and another. And on the surface Mr. Ford shows a sea that sways the destroyers up and down in a way that enhances the whole effect.There is the hero who won't listen to any arguing. He has settled in his mind who is to be the man who stays behind, which must be, as the only way of getting out of the submersible has to be manipulated by somebody from the inside. The young ensign, the submarine commander, is last hut one and he would have stayed with his ship had he not been forced by the bigger man to take to the torpedo tube.While this film is known as "Men Without Women," there are in the initial chapters scenes supposed to be in Shanghai in which there are a number of welcome women. These stretches are cleverly filmed.The acting of all the participants is capital. Kenneth MacKenna is natural and impressive as Burke. Frank Albertson does splendidly as Ensign Price. Charles Garrard rather exaggerates the English accent of a British naval officer. Farrell Macdonald makes his lines as one of the submarine crew count.There is satisfying verity about the performances and in all the scenic effects.
A Submarine Drama.MEN WITHOUT WOMEN, with Kenneth MacKenna, Frank Albertson, Paul Page, Walter McGrall, Warren Hymer, Farrell Macdonald, Stuart Erwin, George La Guere, Ben Hendricks Jr., Harry Tenbrook, Roy Stewart, Warner Richmond, Charles Garrard and Pat Somerset, based on a story by John Ford and James K. McGuinness, directed by John Ford. At the Roxy.Philo Vance in the form of Basil Rathbone is as discerning as ever in the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer audible pictoral version of S. S. Van Dine's popular mystery, "The Bishop Murder Case," which is now on exhibition at the Capitol.This film is another instance of the progress made in sound, for it is a production in which one follows the words with little or no thought being given to the mechanical device. Moreover, this occasionally spine-chilling narrative is in the hands of thoroughly competent players, who evidently know their lines as well as they would were they on the stage. It is a film that sustains the interest and it has been singularly ably directed by Nick Grinde and David Burton. They have imbued it with the necessary atmosphere and once some of the female contingent of the audience yesterday afternoon were impelled to scream.James Donlan impersonates Ernest Heath, the sleuth who in this particular thriller is like a log in a sea of brains. He is dumfounded momentarily by Philo Vance's startling powers of deduction. Mr. Vance tells him in one sequence that he can see that Heath has been out with his fiancée, that he found himself without sufficient money, that the girl cried and that the sleuth expects to see her again that evening. This is just a little too much for Heath and Mr. Vance, taking pity on him, explains how he (Vance) draws his conclusions. First, Vance explains that Heath has had a shave. Obviously to go to call on the girl; secondly, Heath has an ink smudge on his forefinger, which tells Vance that the stout man wrote a check because he did not have enough money; thirdly, Heath has a little mascaro on his handkerchief, which came from wiping his sweetheart's eyes, and, lastly, Heath has watched the clock since he entered the room. which, to Vance, is a sign that Heath is eagerly awaiting a further meeting with his sweetheart.As in other Van Dine stories, poor Heath is snowed under by the amateur detective's quick eye. The murders in this particular chronicle are above Heath's head. The murderer, possibly to throw suspicion on the man he dislikes, sends notes in children's rhymes and signs them "The Bishop." It is a question whether chess or the church are involved in the signature, and as there are two chess players in the group it is presumed that the signature is derived from the game. In this murder mystery, however, just when matters appear to be clearing up, another discovery is made and there is more of a muddle than ever.The slayer is a busy person. First he kills Joseph Cochrane Robin; then John Sprigg is found dead. Following these victims, the murderer devotes his time to others, but the least said about them the better, as the finger of suspicion is pointed at them and a word too much might spoil the story's interest during certain episodes.Mr. Rathbone vies easily with William Powell as an interpreter of Philo Vance. So far as to which of the two is preferable in the rôle is a matter to be decided by the imaginative Mr. Van Dine. Roland Young gives a splendid performance as Sigurd Arnesson. Leila Hyams figures as Belle Dillard, who has a nerve-racking ordeal in this film. George Marion impersonates the bent-backed Drukker in a clever fashion.
Philo Vance's Deductions.THE BISHOP MURDER CASE, with Basil Rathbone, Leila Hyams, Roland Young. Alec B. Francis, George Marion, Zelda Sears, Bodil Rosing, Carroll Nye, Charles Quartermaine, James Donlan, Sydney Bracey, Clarence Geldert, Deimar Daves and Nellie Bly Baker; based on a story by S. S. Van Dine, directed by Nick Grinde and David Burton; "Venetian Carnival," devised and staged by Arthur Knorr, with Zelaya, Mengeans, Kathryn Lewis, Nina Oginska, Jack Hanlon, Tom Fulmer and others.

The Madden NFL 22 Reveal date is obvious
The Madden NFL 22 Reveal date is obvious has not posted anything yet
Even though he only played in eight games, Brown did make 45 catches for 483 yards and four touchdowns. With the possibility of playing alongside Brady for the entire season, Brown could be slated to have a major season. Brown finished Madden NFL 21 with an 86-percent rating, however it's likely that that number will rise substantially for Madden NFL 22, which is scheduled to come released in a matter of weeks. Of course, the volatile receiver is prone to making himself an unpopular figure as well.
EA Sports has broken a long-standing tradition when it comes to Madden NFL 22. Never before since the Madden NFL franchise started has EA waited so late in the year before revealing the game that will be the next in the long-running football series, creating all sorts of theories about the reason why the game's latest version is still being kept secret.
As at the time of writing, EA Sports still has yet to clarify when exactly it will be showing Madden NFL 22, but the date for the unveiling could appear pretty clear.
There are a myriad of reasons, Madden NFL 22 fans are waiting with anticipation for the announcement. The most important reason is that they are eager to see whether EA Sports keeps its promise to improve Madden's Franchise mode in the new game. But another reason is that people are eager to find out the Madden NFL 22's cover character.
EA Sports teased that Madden NFL 22's cover is likely to be a distinct one. However, there's an unsubstantiated theory that the reason why EA Sports is taking so long to reveal Madden NFL 22 is because that the cover character is expected to be Aaron Rodgers. The current situation is that Aaron Rodgers is currently in uncertain relations with the Green Bay Packers. This could be one of the reasons why the game isn't completely revealed.

Resource Management Solutions (RMS) is celebrating having recently been appointed the exclusive HR and recruitment partner of Peterlee-based NSK, one of the world's leading manufacturers of bearings, linear technology and steering systems.
Darlington-based RMS works with companies of varying sizes, from niche local specialists to global blue-chip sector leaders across a wide range of industries, to provide recruitment, payroll and HR managed services.
NSK are very confident that we've selected the right HR and recruitment partner in RMS. Over the course of the past six months we've undertaken a robust and comprehensive tender process.

Having been exclusive and highly successful permanent recruitment partners to NSK since 2014, we're excited to be developing the relationship further, for at least the next three years.
With more than 18 years' experience of working with global manufacturing OEMs, Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers within the automotive industry, we have gained the knowledge and understanding to be an effective on-site HR and recruitment partner. With the impending changes within the industry we need to be able to support daily operational demands, enabling leadership teams to focus on the core business while HR focus on all people management and employee relations matters. This will offer greater visibility of HR management information and provide the ability to drive NSK's HR and recruitment functions more effectively, while delivering cost savings. We are a trusted partner for the automotive sector. We're proud of the service we deliver. The model we've developed over the course of time is tried and tested, and can be transferred successfully across many sectors.

Exclusive Interview: Bubba Wallace & Director Erik Parker Talk Netflix Docuseries 'Race: Bubba Wallace'
Sammy Approved | 02.23.22
Source: James Gilbert / Getty
Netflix released documentary series Race: Bubba Wallace yesterday (Feb. 22). The series follows Wallace, the only Black NASCAR driver currently in NASCAR's Cup Series, as he uses his voice and talent to change the sport. We spoke with Wallace and director Erik Parker about the series.
In our short interview, the two detail the importance of making the documentary, how Wallace was affected by the racial tension in America and what he's doing to make a difference.
Race: Bubba Wallace is a six-part series streaming on Netflix, featuring the NASCAR Cup Series driver. It dives into Wallace's life both on and off the race track. We were able to catch his race car performance live and in action at the Busch Light Clash at the Coliseum in Los Angeles on Feb. 6, where Wallace placed at number four in the series with 47 points.
This was our first experience at a NASCAR race, because this sort of experience isn't usually catered to the Black community, and the faces in the audience proved that to be factual. There were thousands in attendance at the Busch Light Clash and very few of the attendees looked like us.
Wallace, a bi-racial 28 year old driver, shares that he never looked at himself as a "Black or White" driver. In the documentary series, his mom, Desiree Wallace, shared that she never taught her children to view others from a racial lens.
Bubba confirms that all he wants to do is drive, but the racial tension that ensued after the senseless murders of Black people like George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery convinced him to use his platform to enact change.
Wallace continues to make history as the only Black NASCAR driver in the Cup Series with an impressive record to match. He also competes with 23XI, the professional auto racing organization owned and operated by Hall of Fame basketball player Michael Jordan, with current Joe Gibbs Racing driver Denny Hamlin as a minority partner. Fans will see Wallace racing with the Jordan's famed number 23 on the side of the race car.
Happy Black History Month! Celebrate by watching our short interview with NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace and director Erik Parker, discussing the importance of Netflix's latest documentary series Race: Bubba Wallace below.

Atacadão est une enseigne de grande distribution brésilienne rachetée en 2007 par le groupe Carrefour, qui devient meneur sur le marché brésilien.

Il s'agit d'une chaine discount de magasins-entrepôts proposant des conditionnements en gros volumes avec des remises progressives en fonction des quantités achetées. Ce modèle leur permet de pratiquer des prix 10 à 15% plus bas que les grandes surfaces classiques. En contrepartie, peu de références sont proposées : environ 9000, contre 40 000 pour un hypermarché classique. Ce modèle est similaire à celui de Costco ou Netto.

En 2010, la chaine ouvre son premier magasin en dehors du Brésil dans la ville de Bogotá en Colombie, et en Argentine, dans la région de Buenos Aires.

En 2012, la chaine de Metro Cash & Carry (appartenant au groupe Metro AG) au Maroc et qui a été rachetée par Label'Vie passera sous l'enseigne Atacadão Maroc.

À l'automne 2023, un premier magasin ouvrira en France, en Seine-Saint-Denis, potentiellement à Stains ou Sevran, ce qui est vu comme une réponse à l'effet de l'inflation sur le pouvoir d'achat des Français. Certains analystes y voient un signe du « déclassement de la société française ».

India Has Highest Bribery Rate in Asia: Transparency International
PTI | 26 Nov 2020
With the highest bribery rate (39%) in the region, India also has the highest rate of people using personal connections to access public services (46%)," the report said.

New Delhi: India has the highest bribery rate in Asia and the most number of people who use personal connections to access public services, according to a new report by corruption watchdog Transparency International.
The Global Corruption Barometer (GCB) – Asia, found that nearly 50% of those who paid bribes were asked to, while 32% of those who used personal connections said they would not receive the service otherwise.
The report is based upon the survey which was conducted between June 17 and July 17 this year in India with a sample size of 2,000.
"With the highest bribery rate (39%) in the region, India also has the highest rate of people using personal connections to access public services (46%)," the report said.
Bribery in public services continues to plague India. Slow and complicated bureaucratic process, unnecessary red tape and unclear regulatory frameworks force citizens to seek out alternate solutions to access basic services through networks of familiarity and petty corruption, the report said.
"Both national and state governments need to streamline administrative processes for public services, implement preventative measures to combat bribery and nepotism, and invest in user-friendly online platforms to deliver essential public services quickly and effectively," the report said.
Although reporting cases of corruption is critical to curbing the spread, a majority of citizens in India (63%) think that if they report corruption, they will suffer retaliation, it said.
In several countries including India, Malaysia, Thailand, Sri Lanka and Indonesia, sexual extortion rates are also high and more must be done to prevent sextortion and address specific gendered forms of corruption, the report said.
Sextortion is extorting money or sexual favours from someone by threatening to reveal evidence of their sexual activity through means like morphed images.
In India, 89% think government corruption is a big problem, 18% offered bribes in exchange for votes and 11% experienced sextortion or know someone who has.
About 63% of surveyed people think the government is doing well in tackling corruption while 73% said their anti-corruption agency is doing well in the fight against corruption, it said.
Based on fieldwork conducted in 17 countries, the GCB surveyed nearly 20,000 citizens in total.
The report said the results showed that nearly three out of four people think corruption is a big problem in their country and the survey also found that nearly one in five people who accessed public services, such as health care and education, paid a bribe in the preceding year.
This equates to approximately 836 million citizens in the 17 countries surveyed, it said.
After India, Cambodia has the second highest bribery rate at 37%, followed by Indonesia (30%) while the Maldives and Japan maintain the lowest overall bribery rate (2%) followed by South Korea (10%) and Nepal (12%).
"However, even in these countries, governments could do more to stop bribes for public services," the report said.
The report concluded by noting that daily experience with corruption and bribery remains alarmingly high, with nearly one in five citizens paying a bribe to access key government services, such as health care or education, and one in seven being offered a bribe to vote one way or another at elections.
"In several countries, including India, Malaysia, Thailand, Sri Lanka and Indonesia, sexual extortion rates are also high and more must be done to prevent sextortion and address specific gendered forms of corruption," it said.
The report further said that to provide victims of corruption with channels for redress, governments must ensure that bribery is criminalised and actively investigated and prosecuted.
"Citizens must have access to safe and confidential reporting mechanisms and governments must do more to ease citizens' fear of retaliation in reporting corruption," the report said.

Roger Sanchez
from Queens, New York, NY
Just one in the cast of crucial producers who made Strictly Rhythm the premiere American house label during the early '90s, Roger Sanchez grew into a prolific remixer, world-class mainstream DJ, and top global-house name by the end of the decade. Though he concentrated more on mix albums than proper studio productions under his own name, Sanchez gained much respect with club kids as well as the dancefloor intelligentsia.
Born in New York to parents of Dominican heritage, Sanchez attended Manhattan's School of Art & Design with several future hip-hop legends including Kurtis Mantronik. He was well into the graffiti and break-dancing scene during the early '80s and began DJing by the age of 13. After mixing for several years at New York hot spots like the Tunnel -- even while he was studying architecture at the Pratt Institute -- Sanchez finally left college in 1987 to give music a full-time shot. His club Ego Trip was soon booming (with Sanchez mixtapes selling briskly on Broadway) and he never looked back. By 1989, Gladys Pizarro from Strictly Rhythm Records had touched base to see if Sanchez was interested in production; one year later, he had recorded his first single, Luv Dancin, as Underground Solution.
The single's tough underground grooves charged the New York house scene, then just on the cusp of a turnover from the smooth garage sound to a rougher style influenced by European trance and techno. Despite stumbling into remixing by accident -- after giving a bad review to a single, he was tapped to rework it -- Sanchez became more than competent at the game, and beginning in 1991 he worked on tracks for Babyface, Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Janet Jackson, Chic, M People, Basia, Incognito, and Soul II Soul.
Later Sanchez productions -- a 1994 Latin dub-house burner named "Sumba Lumba" (as Tribal Confusion), the following year's hard-hitting Strictly 4 the Underground EP (as Roger S), and that same year's "Release Yo Self" (as Transatlantic Soul) -- cemented his status as one of Strictly Rhythm's greatest assets and one of the world's leading mainstream producers. Though his own One Records collapsed in 1995, Sanchez formed another label named Narcotic and signed up with the British club Hard Times to release his first full-length. The mix LP Hard Times: The Album featured the S-Man (with just two decks, a mixer, and a crate of records) proving his worth as a DJ in addition to his much-hyped studio work. He continued in the mix-LP vein, releasing volumes in two high-profile series (Mixmag Live!, United DJ's of America), and the Freeze collection Roger S. Mega Mix. In 1997, Narcotic Records released "Back" (as S-Men), the fruits of the dance super-group formed by Sanchez, Junior Sanchez, and DJ Sneak. One year later, Sanchez released S-Man Classics, a two-disc collection including his best remixes backed with his best own productions. A few mix albums followed during the next three years, but a full production album, First Contact, finally dropped in 2001.
Sanchez launched a new label in 2002 named Stealth -- home to his impressive rate of mixes, as well as re-releases and new productions from himself as well as other artists. The following year, he won a Grammy in the category of Best Remixed Recording for his remix of No Doubt's "Hella Good." Release Yourself, his long-running terrestrial and online radio show, won an International Dance Music award for Best Podcast. The show celebrated a decade of broadcasts when the mix effort Release Yourself: 10th Anniversary Edition dropped in 2011, the same year that Sanchez joined with the Far East Movement for the single "2gether." The singles "Troubleman" and "My Roots" arrived in 2013 along with the mix album Release Yourself 13. ~ John Bush, Rovi

Information provided in the RTI speaks volume on the shift in medical education trends. The key reason for this is the lack of medical seats in India. There is a total of approx. 60, 000 medical seats that is being offered by both Government and private colleges for medical aspirants who are in millions. Apart from this, higher awareness levels of the overseas colleges, more affordable fees compared to Indian private colleges, curriculum aligned to international standards, better global growth opportunities etc are other reasons why students prefer to study MBBS abroad...As confirmed by the statement from the educationalist Mr.PKS Athithan .
