Eyes: Light Blue
General appearance: Kyoshi is a man that stands slightly taller than average height, with curly, bright silver, hair that looks slightly messy most of the time. He is muscular and thin from his time training with his father from a young age, though he ha no scars because of his mother's healing over all of the years. He typically wears a black shirt that is trimmed with red and open over his chest. Over that, Kyoshi wears a single sleeved white yukata that is accented with light blue clouds that are designed around the bottom and end of the sleeve. On the back of his shirt is a white Senju clan symbol, which is also on the back of yukata, though in black. On his lower body he wears black pants that are tucked into boots. He also wears a blue obi around his waist.
Personality: Friendly
Above all else, Kyoshi is a young man that is committed to people. He isn't only dedicated to the people of his village or the people that he is close to; he cares about people as a whole. Growing up in the Warring States Period showed Kyoshi just how brutal humanity can be to one another. But the conclusion of the large-scale fighting that was brought on by people of his own clan showed him how powerful people can be when they work together. To that end, Kyoshi tried to be kind to people that he meets unless they give him reason not to, and he always offers a friendly face to those who will accept it.
Knowledge-Seeking
Kyoshi is always in the pursuit of knowledge. Whether it is the history of his clan or new techniques that other shinobi have developed, Kyoshi finds knowledge to be one of the most valuable things in the world. Because of this, he is inquisitive, adventurous, and always in search of a good mystery. Any change to explore lost ruins, peruse libraries from a time long past, or meet someone of great power will pull Kyoshi in without a doubt.
When Kyoshi sets a goal for himself, he fully intends to accomplish that goal, no matter how long it takes. Whether it is mastering a new jutsu, completing a mission, or teaching someone else how to properly throw a shuriken, Kyoshi will be there until the task is complete, pushing everyone involved forward though the whole endeavor. This also comes across as stubbornness sometimes, which can lead to some undesirable situations. Furthermore, if who goals that he sets himself to end up conflicting, he has a hard time pushing forward with either. But eventually he is sure to pick one over the other, though not without careful contemplation.
Kyoshi is committed to through he trusts. Though he is friendly with everyone, if he considers you a friend, he will do anything he can to help you, no matter what. Those who earn his trust will find that it is not easily broken, and he has been known to go to great lengths to help those who would possibly do him harm if he considers them his friend. Though he is not naïve, he is loyal to a fault, and has been taken advantage of in the past; it will certainly happen to him again at some point in his life.
Likes/Dislikes: Likes
Kyoshi enjoys being around people and is very friendly, but if he has a choice of what to do for a day, he is more introverted than one would except. Kyoshi loves to read, both fiction and non-fiction novels. He spends as much time as he can curled up on a large sofa with a good book when he gets the chance. When he is tired of reading, he also spends a great deal of time gardening. He uses his clan's Kekkei Genkai to assist him, but only when building shelters and similar things for his garden. He enjoys the process of truly growing something himself, without the assistance of chakra at all. Kyoshi is also a big fan of sushi, and whenever there is a chance, he will head out to all-you-can-eat sushi restaurants near his home for a meal.
Kyoshi hates to see his friends fight. preserving relationships is something that he finds very important and to see people that he holds dear in conflict is very challenging for him. Kyoshi also dislikes people that he thinks are lazy. Working hard has been impressed into him since he was very young to see people waste their time doing nothing productive is disappointing to him.
Fears/Phobia's: Above all else, Kyoshi fears two things specifically. The first is a fear of war returning to the land. Kyoshi knows how hard many clans of shinobi worked to bring about the end of the Warring States period, and he knows how many people lost their lives trying to achieve that goal. The Senju fears the return of a time of War, and does everything in his power to prevent that, no matter how little it may seem. Secondly, Kyoshi fears letting down those he has called friend. He takes his friendships very seriously, and he fears the possibility of betraying their trust or loyalty by failing the in any way. It is a heavy emotional burden, but Kyoshi believes by not failing his friends, he can prevent the world from dissolving into war again.
Ideals and motivations: Peace
Kyoshi believes strongly in the peace that his clan fought for. He truly believes that people are the strongest when they work together and not when they are just building themselves up. The Will of Fire is something that he tries to live by each and every day, and he is always happy to teach people about the philosophy. He pushes himself to be a better ninja and person by learning from others and applying that knowledge so that he can keep his new home safe and defend it from those who would plunge it back in to war.
Kyoshi is always hoping to learn more about the world, whether it be history, science, or simply stories that have been passed down through generations. He believes that the more you know, the more you can relate to other people, and that is one of the most powerful abilities in the world. He sees reading as one of the best uses of his time, right along side training his shinobi skills. Finding lost knowledge drives him to go beyond the limits that would usually be set for him, and he believes that sometimes lost knowledge is the most valuable.
Kyoshi's father always told him about his dreams of peace for his family and clan. The man's untimely death pressed that ideal into Kyoshi very strongly, and he now longs to become a ninja that will stand as a defender of the peace that the ninja world is beginning to find. He dreams of opening the dojo that his father always wanted, where he cans how people the power of the Will of Fire while keeping them safe.
History: Like many of the men and women that call themselves ninja int his day and age, Kyoshi was born during the horrors of the Warring States Period. As a member of the Senju clan, he was on the move ever since he was young, shifting across the world with the other members of his clan, including his family, to complete any and all work that was put to them. Unlike most Senju, Kyoshi's immediate family did not participate directly in the fighting that the rest of their clan was always party to. Instead, his mother and father focused on healing those who returned to their camps so that they could continue fighting for their cause. The pair dreamed of peace like some of the other members and chose to be healers because of that.
Despite their hopes, Kyoshi's parents saw the necessity of teaching the boy the basics of being a ninja. His father, along with some of the other clan members, took the time to train Kyoshi as he grew among them, but his mother made sure to take part in those lessons as well. She taught him about the basics of healing, and Kyoshi would help mend the wounds of the Senju that came back from the battles of the ninja world. Through all this, Kyoshi longed to become a true ninja, but his parents would never bless the decision, and he chose to respect that. His father promised him that someday, should the endless wars finally cease, he would build a dojo, where he would teach Kyoshi to be a shinobi with the sole purpose of protecting that peace.
Much to the surprise of Kyoshi's family, the chance for peace came within their lifetime. While Kyoshi's parents were elated about the opportunity, many members of the Senju were not in favor of the choice. The ensuing rebellions were violent, and one night the violence found Kyoshi's camp. As death rained down around the young Senju, he watched his father fall to a clansman's blade. Torn apart with grief and shock, the young Senju was able to find his mother and escape with the other survivors. The small group reunited with the main body of the clan and told them what happened, joining up with them and heading toward where they would settle in their new "village."
In the ensuing months, Kyoshi battled with grief and understanding his purpose without his father to grow and live with. He decided that he would fulfil his father's dream and become a defender of the village as a shinobi. He was far behind in his training, and many of his peers were years younger than him. But Kyoshi was determined to grow so that some day he could open a dojo of defenders. The Will of Fire burned brightly within him, and his story was only just beginning…

2019 MTV VMAs: Taylor Swift and Lil Nas X Win Big
The 2019 MTV Video Music Awards came back with a bang. Performers from the spectrum took the stage and dazzled everyone. Winners were big and bold, and the performances were bolder. Here's the tea!
LIZZO'S EXPLOSIVE PERFORMANCE//via Dimitrios Kambouris/VMN19/Getty Images for MTV
The 2019 MTV VMAs was Explosive
Taylor Swift was one of the artists who had the most nominations. Tied with fellow pop superstar Ariana Grande, they have 12 nominations each. Grande was crowned Artist of the Year, while Swift went home with multiple awards, including the coveted Video of the Year for her song "You Need to Calm Down."

Swift also won the award Video for Good for her GLAAD-directive for "You Need to Calm Down," and Best Visual Effects for her collaborative effort with "ME!" with Panic! at the Disco's Brendon Urie.
This was Swift's first VMA's performance in about four years, and ten years since her first VMAs. MTV says that this will be a 'world performance' for her.
Lil Nas X Lights Up the Stage
Lil Nas X's debut on the MTV stage took a very futuristic turn. Introduced by his old friend Billy Ray Cyrus, Nas took the 2019 MTV stage by storm, performing his follow-up single, "Panini."

Situated in the middle of a Tron-like set-up, the Atlanta-born rapper showcased fierce and well-choreographed dance moves we haven't seen from him before.
Watch the performance below!
Nas went home with another big award – Song of the Year with his smash hit "Old Town Road." It also won Best Direction for its epic music video. Of course, a Nas performance isn't complete without him performing his hit with his pal Billy Ray Cyrus.
Taylor Swift's Worldwide Performance
Taylor Swift indeed stopped production at the 2019 VMA's with her amazing performances of her hits "You Need to Calm Down" and "Lover" – with the help from some very special guests.
Lover has only been out of the market for less than a week, it's already the top-selling album this week and has scored the biggest sales week for any album since Swift's own Reputation in 2017.

Upcoming Practices for On Page & Off Page SEO

Off Page SEO, On Page SEO, SEO
Trends to look out in 2018 for Web Designing
Web Development Trends For 2018
For many people, SEO is just about submitting links to the search engine directory, building backlinks & having a sitemap. We never tend to exceed this because it never concerned us. But the upcoming year, 2018 has many in store for the technological revolution. It expects us to change the way we look at SEO & treat SEO. Here we will see the latest SEO strategies for on page & off page optimization that should be adopted for what's to come.
But before that, let's understand the difference between On-Page and Off-Page Optimization:
On page optimization consists of all techniques that are concerned with the pages of the website & off page optimization consists of all techniques that are concerned with external links. But, the purpose remains the same for both the practices, to achieve higher ranks in the Search Engine Results (SERPs).
Before you completely understand, what it takes to rank high on Google's SERPs, you need to educate yourself about what has changed & what needs to be improved. This would make clear what Google's intentions are for 2018, besides its core goal of bringing the most relevant search results in the fastest way possible. Google has been trying to reach the peak of perfection. It has, thereby, eliminated all other search engines from the race. Besides this, it has become a household name along the way.
SEO is the mind of Google & it is very significant to read its mind. There are two ways how Google's mind works:
On-Page Upcoming Practices
Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP): Most of the online traffic comes from mobile devices, it is the fact & Google has incorporated the valuation of AMP feature in SERPs. AMP is an open source initiative by Google to allow fast rendering & loading of content on mobile devices. Google AMP is becoming amusingly popular as more than 80% of global online audience accesses the internet through mobile devices & so the SEO experts should keep an eye on the AMP test results for the pages of the websites they look after.
Updated Content: Google measures all of your contents for freshness & then scores them according to the type of search query. The website should be updated from time to time, by creating a more useful content on accessible pages, removing unnecessary advertisements & creating new pages that can answer fresh search queries. As an SEO expert, you should focus on having an entirely new freshness quotient for your website that ranks it up in the SERPs.
Rich Answer Optimization: Every day, billions of searches performed on Google & only 19.45% appear in the rich answer snippets. The percentage may not be as high today, but in the future, it would also become competitive as it directly attracts user's attention. Since Google has made its intention of giving value to rich answers, because they deliver the most relevant information to the search query without requiring clicking on the website URL, SEO experts should optimize the website content for rich answers of relevant search queries.
Quick Page Loading: Earlier in 2017, Google formally announced that page speed will be a ranking factor in its mobile-first index & now it is quite evident that 2018 will favor websites that are fast & accessible. This can be achieved by enabling compression, minifying CSS, JavaScript & HTML, reducing redirects & optimizing images. Google's Page speed test can be a helpful tool for SEO experts to keep a check on this in the coming year.
Off-Page Optimization:
All the practices come under the umbrella of off page optimization that concerns the relationship of your website with other websites. It includes link building, but it is not restricted to link building. The off-page optimization practices for 2018 are a level up, targeting more actions & traffic to your website.
Off-Page Upcoming Practices
Content Marketing: This is a small thing that has the capability to bring out big changes. After having produced high-quality content on your websites, 2018 will bring in the need to market the content on highly-trafficked destinations of the web such as Reddit, LinkedIn, Quora, Google+ & Pinterest, besides Instagram, Twitter, Facebook & YouTube. It is one of the most important & effective SEO practices to be put to utilize this year. It would engage many people with your website & take you up in SERPs.
Quality Backlinks: There is no doubt that Google measures the number of backlinks to your content & views them as the number of votes received in an election, but it values them more if they have quality added to them. In other words, if the backlinks give the visitors what they are looking for while they land your website, it will make a difference to your ranking in SERPs. As an SEO expert, you not only need to bring more links to your domain but also need to earn them from authoritative & trustworthy websites.
Client Testimonials & Product Reviews: Since Google has shifted its working to machine learning, it reaches out to unique reviews about products & services, as a measure of a good brand, hence a good website. It is surely going to play a big role in the coming days as it reflects that trust users have on your website & certainly, pull up the rankings in SERPs.
Security is Priority: In the coming year, https (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure) will be a ranking factor. Websites that use https over http will have an added benefit in the SERPs, as it will keep the information safe from hackers. Google has although not announced it officially, but the search engines prefer secure websites. As a good SEO practice, all websites should switch from http to https, otherwise, the coming year might bring in penalties.
SEO is like a puzzle – the more you try to solve it, the more you get lost in it. You have a checklist of your primary SEO practices for the coming year but you have to keep educating yourself about the changes that take place.

Biografia
Angelo Tarantino, figlio di Giuseppe e Regina Florian, nacque l'8 aprile 1908 a Portogruaro, provincia di Venezia (oggi città metropolitana) e diocesi di Concordia (oggi diocesi di Concordia-Pordenone), in Veneto, nell'allora Regno d'Italia (oggi Repubblica Italiana).

Formazione e ministero sacerdotale
Dopo aver conseguito l'istruzione primaria si iscrisse presso il Seminario minore di Concordia, facendosi notare dal rettore e mettendosi in luce come ottimo studente: la sua pagella dell'anno scolastico 1922-23 riportava tre 8, tre 9 e due 10, tra cui uno in italiano. Dopo la terza media manifestò la sua volontà di entrare nei Figli del Sacro Cuore di Gesù.

Divenuto alunno dell'Istituto Comboni di Brescia, sebbene con alcune difficoltà iniziali, frequentò il quarto e quinto ginnasio presso il Collegio Cesare Arici della stessa città. I suoi genitori supportarono la sua scelta di seguire la vocazione al sacerdozio, incoraggiandolo a diventare missionario.

Entrato presso la comunità comboniana di Venegono Superiore, emise i voti temporanei il 1º novembre 1927 e la professione solenne esattamente quattro anni dopo, il 1º novembre 1931. Ricevette l'ordinazione sacerdotale il 19 marzo 1932 a Trento, divenendo presbitero due settimane prima di compiere ventiquattro anni. Nel mese di ottobre dello stesso anno partì come missionario per l'Uganda, dove trascorse il resto della sua vita.

Ministero episcopale
Il 23 giugno 1958, con la bolla Qui summam, papa Pio XII eresse la diocesi di Arua ricavandone il territorio dalla diocesi di Gulu; il 12 febbraio 1959 il suo successore Giovanni XXIII lo nominò 1º vescovo della nuova sede. Ricevette la consacrazione episcopale il 1º maggio seguente, presso il Duomo di Sant'Andrea apostolo nella nativa Portogruaro, per imposizione delle mani di Vittorio De Zanche, vescovo di Concordia, assistito dai co-consacranti Gioacchino Muccin, vescovo di Feltre e Belluno, ed Antonio Mistrorigo, vescovo di Treviso. Rientrato in Uganda, prese possesso della diocesi, nella cattedrale del Sacro Cuore ad Arua.

Prese parte alla seconda sessione del Concilio Vaticano II, svoltasi presso la basilica di San Pietro in Vaticano dal 29 settembre al 4 dicembre 1963.

In Uganda fondò la congregazione di vita contemplativa delle suore dell'Adorazione perpetua della Santissima Trinità.

Il 29 dicembre 1984 papa Giovanni Paolo II accettò la sua rinuncia dal governo pastorale della diocesi di Arua dopo ventisei anni per raggiunti limiti d'età, ai sensi del can. 401 § 1 del Codice di diritto canonico, divenendone vescovo emerito all'età di settantasei anni; gli succedette il quarantaduenne Frederick Drandua, fino ad allora presbitero della medesima diocesi.

Morì il 15 aprile 1990 ad Arua, una settimana dopo aver compiuto ottantadue anni. Al termine dei solenni funerali, la salma venne tumulata all'interno della cattedrale del Sacro Cuore ad Arua.

Q: Approximating Differential Equations Using Difference Equations/The $z$-Transform. I'm aware that difference equations and the $z$-Transform method can be used to approximate differential equations but I'm wondering how exactly it does this as I don't have a clue? All I've come across is the formula
$x_a(t) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty x_nq(t-nT)$.
Thank you for any help!

APC Breaking News Cross River Politics
BREAKING: I did not endorse Owan Enoh, he has apologized for the lie - Iyanya
Fearless Reports Reply 24 January A+ A-
https://www.fearlessreports.com/2019/01/breaking-i-did-not-endorse-owan-enoh-he.html
Iyanya (R) with Sen. John Owan Enoh (Middle)
Popular Cross River born Nigerian music star, Iyanya Onoyom Mbuk, popularly known as Iyanya has denied reports making the round on social media that he has endorsed the governorship candidate of the All Progressive Congress, APC for the forthcoming elections in the state.
The multiple award winning musician in a reaction sent to Fearless Reports by his media aide, Offiong Akabom said his meeting with Owan Enoh lasted only for two minutes and was not political.
While admitting that Owan Enoh has apologized to him for the false story, the Kukere Crooner added that he doesn't know him enough nor his plans for the state to have endorsed him.
He berated politicians and their media team over what he described as the manipulation to gain unmerited supports.
According to him "I never endorsed Owan Enoh, governorship candidate of APC in Cross River State
as it's been rumoured in the internet.
"I feel terrible about the manipulation of some politicians and their media team in a bid for power and unmerited support".
Iyanya added that "I have immediately sent a clear message to Mr. Owan Enoh about this and he has immediately communicated his sincere apologies as we've never met before now enough to endorse him. Our conversations were barely up to two minutes and we were involved in a few handshakes and he asked to take photos.
I was bemused to find out the following day that his overzealous media team took an event that lasted less that two minutes to be an endorsement on my side.
I do not know his plans for Cross River State, neither I'm I partisan.
I ask all my fans, friends and family to disregard any news or rumor concerning me endorsing Mr. Owan Enoh. I have never endorsed him. Thank you".
It will be recall that Owan Enoh media team last week flooded the social media with pictures of the politician and the musician claiming that Iyanya has endorsed the APC candidate.
Iyanya reaction is coming barely few days after Prince Goddy Jedy Agba denied similar reports by Owan Enoh's media aide that he said Gov. Ben Ayade won't be Governor beyond 2019.

Q: Why componentWillReceiveProps is triggered only if component initially had props? When writing tests, I've noticed inexplicable behavior of componentWillReceiveProps.
This hook seems to be triggered only if component was initially mounted with props.
It looks like when I do component.setProps() on a "empty" component, componentWillReceiveProps is either not fired, or has no effect.
// TEST fails:
test('tracking URL preview input field has URL by default', () => {
    let component = mount(<Tracking />);

    expect(component.find('input').props().value.length).toBe(0);

    /* triggers componentWillReceiveProps and thus renderTrackingUrlPreview,
       which changes input's props: */
    component.setProps();

    expect(component.find('input').props().value.length).toBeGreaterThan(0); // false, input is still empty
});

// TEST passes:
test('tracking URL preview input field has URL by default', () => {
    let component = mount(<Tracking tokenArr={urlTokens} />);

    expect(component.find('input').props().value.length).toBe(0);

    /* triggers componentWillReceiveProps and thus renderTrackingUrlPreview,
       which changes input's props: */
    component.setProps();

    expect(component.find('input').props().value.length).toBeGreaterThan(0); // true, input has value
});

Why the first test fails?
Component's constructor and componentWillReceiveProps:
constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
        tokenArr:    [],
        trackingUrl: ''
    };
    this.renderTrackingUrlPreview = this.renderTrackingUrlPreview.bind(this);
}

componentWillReceiveProps(nextProps) {
    this.setState({
        tokenArr: nextProps.tokenArr,
        trackingUrl: this.renderTrackingUrlPreview(nextProps.tokenArr) // returns string (which is never empty)
    });
}

A: Solved - it has nothing to do with componentWillReceiveProps, it works as expected.
First test failed because renderTrackingUrlPreview was not prepared for empty tokenArr and in effect returned undefined error which prevented further execution. I somehow missed that in the midst of printed stack trace.


This Non-Disclosure Agreement (the "Agreement") is made and automatically entered into by PolicyCheck, Inc. (PCI), an Arizona Corporation, and the user ("Trustee") upon acceptance and login.
Trustee assists PolicyCheck™ in completing an Initial Review that will include a recent third-party policy review and/or in-force illustration from the insured or insured's (second to die policies), a PolicyCheck™ Advisor and the assigned trustee for each policy to be reviewed. The initial review will determine the probability that a particular policy may lapse during the insured's lifetime and provide a baseline comparison for future evaluations. PolicyCheck™ will coordinate an Initial Meeting to review the findings using WebEx, 3-way Conference Call or in person at the Trustee's office based on individual circumstances. Upon completion of the Initial Meeting, PolicyCheck™ will upload the completed report into the policycheck.com platform for Trustee account access and download.
Upon completion of the initial report, trustee will assist in collecting medical information on insured(s) by obtaining or assisting PolicyCheck™ in obtaining a completed Health Assessment form for any policies determined to be at risk. This assessment will enable PolicyCheckTM to further calculate the potential risk of a policy lapsing during an insured's lifetime after accounting for changes in health since the original policy was established. This updated assessment will be included in a complete Suitability Update for each policy where there is a risk of policy lapse based upon actuarial data.
Based upon above findings, Trustee will assist PolicyCheck™ in coordinating a Suitability Update Meeting and/or conference call with grantor/insured to review the findings. Based upon the outcome of meeting, PolicyCheck™ will work with trustee and insured to determine the next steps based upon feedback and trust objectives. The Suitability Update will compare current policy options and new policy options for each remedial possibility. Upon completion of the Suitability Update Meeting, PolicyCheck™ will upload the completed report with final observations into the policycheck.com platform for Trustee account access and download.
In the event of policy replacement, Trustee will assist PolicyCheckTM in acquiring any additional information that may be needed to properly underwrite and determine insurability for the benefit of the trust and its beneficiaries. PolicyCheck™ will perform a Replacement Analysis on behalf of Trustee for any proposed replacement prior to Trustee executing policy exchange. All documents will be available for access and download in the PolicyCheck™ platform (SOC 2 security level) provided to the Trustee as part of this process.
The parties acknowledge that in the performance of the Services, confidential information may be disclosed by one party to the other including, but not limited to: this Agreement, including any and all Statements of Work; intellectual property; financial information; marketing plans; business plans; Personal Information (as defined herein); customer lists; advertiser lists; information pertaining to business operations; other information pertaining to the business, operations, finances, customer and employees of either party; and any information which is identified at the time of its disclosure as being confidential or which under the circumstances of its disclosure ought to be regarded as confidential (collectively "Confidential Information"). Each party shall remain the owner of its Confidential Information, regardless of whether such data is maintained on paper, magnetic tape, magnetic disk, or any other storage or processing device.
Notwithstanding any provisions in any Agreement that are either less protective or less restrictive of either party, both parties (i) shall at all times hold the Confidential Information of the other in trust and in the strictest confidence, (ii) shall protect such Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care, but no less than reasonable care, which both parties use to protect their own most sensitive confidential information, and (iii) shall not disclose or otherwise reveal such Confidential Information to any person or entity other than its authorized employees, agents, independent contractors and/or affiliates who have a need to know the Confidential Information for the purposes expressly authorized hereunder, and who are under a duty of confidentiality and nondisclosure with respect to such Confidential Information at least as restrictive as the provisions of this Agreement.
If a party is requested to disclose any Confidential Information under any applicable law or in any judicial or administrative proceeding, then, except as otherwise required to comply with any applicable law or court order, the disclosing party agrees to promptly notify the other party of such request so that such party may resist such disclosure or seek an appropriate protective order. If disclosing party is nonetheless compelled to disclose any Confidential Information under applicable law or in such judicial or administrative proceeding, disclosing party shall limit its disclosure to that which is required by applicable law or the relevant judicial or administrative body.
This Agreement imposes no obligation upon a party receiving Confidential Information with respect to information that: (a) was in the receiving party's possession before receipt from the disclosing party; (b) is or becomes a matter of public knowledge through no fault of the receiving party; (c) is rightfully received by the receiving party from a third party without a duty of confidentiality; or (d) is independently developed by the receiving party without access to the disclosing party's Confidential Information. For purposes of this Agreement, Confidential Information shall not be deemed in the public domain merely because it may be embraced by more general disclosures, or may be derived from combinations of disclosures that are in the public domain, but nonetheless shall be deemed confidential if collected and combined in a form, which is not generally available to the public.
a) Identify reasonably foreseeable internal and external risks to the security, confidentiality, and integrity of the Personal Information that could result in unauthorized disclosure, misuse, alteration, destruction or other compromise of such information, and assess the sufficiency of any safeguards in place to control the risks.
b) Consider the risks in each relevant area of PCI's operations, including without limitation (i) employee training and management, (ii) information systems, including network and software design, as well as information processing, storage, transmission and disposal, and (iii) detecting, preventing and responding to attacks, intrusions, or other systems failures.
c) Design and implement information safeguards to control the risks identified through PCI's risk assessment, and regularly test or otherwise monitor the effectiveness of the safeguards' key controls, systems, and procedures.
d) Evaluate and adjust PCI's information security program in light of the results of the testing and monitoring, any material changes to PCI's operations or business arrangements, or any other circumstances that PCI knows or has reason to know may have a material impact on its information security program.
Each party agrees to protect Confidential Information of Trustee, including any Personal Information, in conformance with the requirements of the Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information mandated by section 501 of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 ("GLBA") and Regulation P mandated by section 504 of GLBA (together referred to as the "Customer Privacy Requirements") which are enforced by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC").
Trustee acknowledges that PCI's clients are regulated by the FDIC and or State regulatory body, that the regulatory body has examination oversight over PCI's clients and that the regulatory body has authority to examine the operations performed by Trustee and PCI on behalf of Trustee's clients to the same extent as if such operations were performed by PCI's clients on their own premises. In the event the regulatory body determines corrective measures are required in order for the Services covered in the Agreement to meet Customer Privacy Requirements, PCI and Trustee will mutually address these measures and will use their best efforts to modify the Agreement to comply with the requirements. In the event the regulatory body formally objects to the relationship between PCI and Trustee and such objection cannot be remedied, this Agreement shall be deemed terminated and the parties will mutually agree to an orderly conversion of the services to another service provider.
PCI requires all candidates it considers for hire to satisfy a background investigation which, at a minimum, consists of the following; (i) confirmation of identity and personal information; (ii) social security verification; (iii) verification of all education beyond high school; (iv) credit report; (v) employment verification for five years; (vi) felony and misdemeanor and national criminal follow up searches; and (vii) a drug screening.
Neither PCI nor Trustee shall have the right to use the other party's name or other identifying service or trademark, without the prior written consent of the other party. Neither PCI nor Trustee shall act or hold itself out as an agent of the other, except as is expressly set forth in this Agreement.
PCI shall indemnify and hold Trustee harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, losses, damages, or expenses (including attorney's fees and expenses) (collectively, "Losses") incurred by Trustee as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of PCI in the performance of the Services, or as a result of any material breach of any covenant, or representation or warranty, of PCI hereunder. Trustee shall indemnify and hold PCI harmless from and against any Losses incurred by PCI as a result of any material breach of any covenant, or representation or warranty, of Trustee hereunder.
PCI shall, from time to time during regular business hours and upon reasonable notice, permit Trustee, its representatives, Federal and State regulators or federal contractors to perform audits of PCI's facilities, equipment, books and records (electronic or otherwise), operational systems and such other audits as may be necessary to ensure PCI's compliance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement, as well as applicable regulations and laws and to ensure PCI's financial and operational viability, including but not limited to PCI's internal controls, security policies, business resumption, continuity, recovery, and contingency plans.
PCI shall verify and ensure that each PCI Advisor maintains the current licensing and insurance as required by each state department of insurance prior to providing a PCI Advisor with Trustee client contact information.
The Parties hereto agree that this Agreement is made and entered into in Phoenix, Arizona and further that PCI's services are to be performed in Arizona. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona without regard to the principles of conflicts of law.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and may be modified only by a written agreement signed by both parties. The section headings used herein are intended for the convenience of the parties and are not to be construed as a part of this Agreement.

Co-ops at a Crossroads
A Co-op Security Case Study
By Michael Feiner, Paul Feiner
194 Jan.-Feb. 2018
PDF download of article:
security_case_study_194_cg_jan_feb_2018.pdf
Retail grocery co-ops are as quintessential Vermont as the brilliant colors of our fall foliage, the hallmark herd of Holsteins on the pasture, or the one-room schoolhouse at the crossroads of two backcountry roads. In fact, it's said that Vermont boasts the most food co-ops per capita in the country—somewhere in the neighborhood of 17, give or take, in a state of only 625,000 people.
Vermont also boasts at least two local food co-ops housed in one-room schoolhouses! The Adamant Co-op in Adamant traces its diminutive roots back to 1935, when a local pastor and a group of neighbors came together to start the cooperative to buy groceries and create a market for local produce. The Adamant Co-op has been operating out of a one-room schoolhouse, circa 1895, ever since.
A couple of years later and some thirty miles south, another one-room schoolhouse was built in 1897 in East Warren. It may have taken just a little while longer for the school to house a co-op, but the 600-sq. ft. market and its 370 members take great pride in its comparatively short 9-year history—as well they should. Founded in 2009, the East Warren Community Market cleared $1 million in sales in 2016, only its eighth year in operation. The co-op occupies a one-room schoolhouse on a rural crossroads surrounded by stunning fall foliage and, yes—there is a herd of black-and-white dairy cows right across the street.
Even in the middle of nowhere
The East Warren Schoolhouse hasn't had students tread its weathered, wide-plank wood floors in nearly forty years. The building has juggled a number of occupants, endeavors, and periods of vacancy since that time, until the community came together in 2008 to start discussing the idea of a local food co-op.
Vermont communities are small, predominantly rural, and we tend to consider ourselves pretty tight-knit and removed from the fray. Our rates of both violent and non-violent crime are lower than most, and Vermonters generally feel pretty safe and trusting, all things being what they are. It's not at all surprising around here to hear of neighbors leaving their doors unlocked or their keys in their cars. Wouldn't you if you could?
Both at home and in business, Vermonters commonly assume their neighbors, staff, and customers are honest and trustworthy overall. The reality, unfortunately, is not quite as placid as the picturesque setting makes it seem. The truth is, anything can happen anywhere, even in the proverbial "middle of nowhere," where everyone typically knows everyone else and where we take satisfaction in our relative sense of safety and security.
In its short but prosperous 9-year history, the East Warren Community Market has been broken into and burglarized four times.
If your co-op is downtown in any medium-size to large city across the country, you've probably already considered the possibility that your store could be the target of a burglary at some point. Maybe the locks on your back door have been messed with, the roll-up door on your loading dock mangled with a pry bar, or you've come in some otherwise quiet morning only to find a window broken in. Maybe after each of these disheartening but ultimately anodyne incidents, you've chalked it up to be an isolated incident, figured it's unlikely to happen again, and wondered how much could you possibly lose anyway…
After that first break-in in its fourth for fifth year of operation, the board and management of the market in East Warren simply replaced the broken window and called it a day. The valley, we all know, doesn't see a lot of this kind of thing, so it's fairly doubtful it'll happen again. We only lost a couple hundred dollars' worth of product anyway, so it's not really that big a deal.
Fast forward to 2016, and the "unlikely" suddenly transcends the possible to become undeniable. In March and July of 2016, respectively, the East Warren Community Market was targeted again, twice. In each instance, the perpetrator gained entry by breaking a window—a different window in each case—forcibly entering the office and sales floor. They proceeded to ransack the humble market, looking specifically for caches of cash among the local dairy and woolen hats.
As was the practice, the single register drawer at the counter was left open, revealing maybe $10 in mixed change. A $250 stash of petty cash, change for the register, was left in the office.
In the burglary that March, the $250 in petty cash was stolen. Combined with the damage to the building and product, the total damage was less than $1,000. The market had no alarm or camera system in place. Aside from the truly unlikely possibility of 120-year-old ghosts looking after the place, you could hang out inside the store all night and no one would be the wiser.
In the ensuing few months between March and July, and in no hurry to make any hasty decisions, the co-op board and management merely took to repairing the broken window on the historic building, a nearly herculean task in a small town with select boards, concerned community members, and historical societies all chiming in. Come July and the "undeniable" was bordering on inevitable as the co-op was broken into for a third time in eight years.
Three times in eight years may not seem like many times, and as each incident amounted to less than $1,000 worth of total loss, it may be easy to identify with the inclination towards not making too big a fuss. The market manager in July of 2016, however, didn't see "inevitable" as reasonable at all; she saw it as untenable.
After each of the three break-ins at the East Warren Market, management and the board contacted the State Police, who, as these things often go, had a lead on who the perpetrator might be; this wasn't the only burglary reported of late—not even the only burglary reported that night. As it turned out, the incidents of that March and July were both perpetrated by the same individual, a person the police were already aware of, and whose photo had been caught on the camera footage of another targeted establishment.
In smaller communities like ours where these crimes are often attributed to a handful of known offenders, photo evidence (if there is any) not only helps law enforcement establish and secure a case against an individual once they are apprehended, it also helps police conduct their search for the offender directly. The fact that this person was out committing the same crime only three months after having been caught for a spate of earlier burglaries, and this on top of their already colorful history, is a conversation for another day. Suffice it to say, by July of 2016 the manager of the East Warren Market had had enough.
The board of directors and the manager together decided to invest in a very modest but capable camera system for the one-room schoolhouse store. The system employs a single wide-angle lens, motion-activated camera that captures the entirety of the 600-sq. ft. sales floor and adjacent office. The system is "armed" from 8 pm–8 am every night, and aside from immediately recording any activity upon motion-activation, it also sends alerts to both the manager and a board member who both live within three miles of the co-op.
This is a one-room schoolhouse market on a quiet country crossroads in the middle of Vermont; the $100 capital investment to install this unsophisticated but totally effective system, and the $11 monthly subscription to retain 10 days' worth of footage, exemplifies a very reasonable solution for a very unique situation. Co-ops across the country that could fit the East Warren Community Market in their produce walk-in cooler would obviously consider scaling up this solution.
In May of 2017, the East Warren Community Market was targeted a fourth time. The perpetrator in this case broke in through two fairly antiquated back doors and upon finding themselves unmolested, and there being no alarm sounding, proceeded to remove their jacket and face mask, thus providing the not-so-covert camera a clear and unobstructed image of the culprit's face by the light of their own flashlight.
The market was able for the first time to provide police with an unmistakable photo and incontrovertible footage of the incident in question. The perpetrator was once again known to the police and apprehended within 24 hours. The eight cases of beer he stole were still cold.
What's good for the goose
The East Warren Community Market is a bit of an outlier in most respects, and it has become an invaluable treasure in our rural community. It is not, however, immune to every peril of the big city, nor should its management and board of directors be naïve in their commitment to their members and their responsibility to provide for the safety and security of the co-op's assets.
What works in a 600-sq. ft. market is not going to work in a much larger space in communities of hundreds of thousands of people. The investment any co-op makes in its security infrastructure, policies, procedures, and protocols will be proportionate to its size, scale, sales, and location, among other factors. While no investment is a panacea, no investment at all is borderline irresponsible.
Every market across the country has room to improve its existing security measures to better serve its community. The East Warren Market has more upgrades, ideas, and improvements in the works. The conversations have started and are still ongoing.
Fifth time's the charm?
Co-ops of every shape and size should consider taking stock and making moderate but marked steps to account for and increase their current objective security posture. Management and boards should be actively having these conversations, engaging with staff, membership, community stakeholders, and law enforcement to take steps to improve their ability to respond to security incidents of all kinds, and working with law enforcement to reduce security related incidents overall.
It's pretty likely that the co-ops of 80 years ago, in one-room schoolhouses flanked by quarries, churches, and boisterous boarding houses, also saw their fair share of break-ins and bawdy behavior. You could bet a modest camera system might have been a nice adjunct to the honorific "WANTED" poster nailed to the wall. We've come a long way since then, and we should be thankful for that at least. But, unfortunately, we still see incidents of all kinds taking their toll on our cooperatives and communities, in small towns and big cities alike. Now that we have a few more tools at our disposal to deal with these incidents, we just have to decide to make the investment. •

I drink a lot of green tea, and I also love coconut... so when I saw this product I got a little excited. They are mesh pyramids which the company call 'teapees' (:P) - they are biodegradable which is great.
Inside the tea bags, there's lots of large dried leaves. It looks very high quality and smells very coconutty. I infuse the teabag in boiling water for around 2 minutes, and that is definitely enough time. The green tea is organic and it certainly shows, YUM!
The flavour is gorgeous. I can only describe the taste as high quality green tea with a natural sweetness which has a noticeable coconut note. There is also lychee inside these tea bags so that adds a unique sweetness to the tea.

On starting the laptop, it shows a blank Word and Excel document instead of the blank screen. How does one set what comes on the start up screen?
OS X 10.7 (Lion) introduced a feature where it automatically restores any windows that were open on shutdown, as best as it can determine. If you still have Word and Excel running at shutdown (that is, you haven't closed them with cmd+q), they will start up again when you restart your computer and, I would guess, open a blank document.

When the Doctor Disappears →
Weight Gain and Older Women
By PAULA SPAN
Michelle Obama has done an excellent job mobilizing the nation to combat childhood obesity and encouraging kids to eat better and move more. But now her efforts may be needed on another front.
Obesity can take a heavy toll on older women, too: Their risk of developing chronic diseases, losing the ability to walk or dying earlier increases with excess weight. We get the particulars from a large national study, recently published in JAMA Internal Medicine, that tracked more than 36,000 post-menopausal women at 40 research centers and universities around the country.
When the women enrolled in the Women's Health Initiative between 1993 and 1998, they were between 66 and 79 years old (average age: 72). The researchers recorded the subjects's heights, weights and health information, then followed up periodically thereafter. When the study concluded in 2012, the researchers found that the women fell into five categories:
*19 percent of these women were deemed healthy, meaning that "they survived to age 85 and had no major chronic diseases and maintained the ability to walk," said lead author Dr. Eileen Rillamas-Sun, an epidemiologist at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle.
*Another 14.7 percent began the study with one or more of five chronic disease (cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes or hip fracture), but did not develop any additional health problems, and remained mobile.
*Nearly a quarter, 23.2 percent, developed one or more of the diseases during the study period, but maintained their ability to walk.
*18.3 percent did lose their mobility — meaning they required crutches, walkers or wheelchairs — or reported limited ability to walk a block or climb a flight of stairs. The researchers used this measure of disability, Dr. Rillamas-Sun said, because "losing one's ability to walk contributes to loss of independence."
*The remaining women, 24.8 percent, died before age 85.
When the researchers looked at the impact that obesity or being overweight — calculated by body mass index — took on the women's health, "we found that women with a healthy body weight had a greater chance of living to 85 without developing a chronic disease or a mobility disability," Dr. Rillamas-Sun said. "The heavier you are, the worse your chances of healthy survival."
Now some New Old Age readers — you know who you are — are already mentally composing comments like, "Didn't we already know that obesity is bad for us?" and "We needed a study funded by the National Institutes of Health to tell us this?"
We did, on both counts. But older people and women have historically been underrepresented in — or actually excluded from — research trials. For years, experts assumed that findings from all-male studies applied to women, too, which has proved to be untrue.
Also, aside from gender disparities, "a lot of research focuses on everyone 65 and older," Dr. Rillamas-Sun pointed out. "We looked at the old-old" — those who are 85-plus.
But it is true that this work confirms what we thought we knew: Overweight women run a higher risk of health problems and disability, and those risks rise sharply when overweight becomes obese.
Compared to older women with healthy body mass indexes (below 25), overweight women had a 20 percent greater chance of developing one of the five diseases. But women with Level 1 obesity (B.M.I. over 30 but below 35) had a 65 percent higher risk of disease, and women with higher levels of obesity were more than twice as likely to develop disease. The likelihood of dying before age 85 showed a similar pattern. (The data has been adjusted to account for demographic differences and health behaviors like smoking.)
When it came to losing mobility, the researchers found even more striking differences. Overweight women had a 60 percent higher risk of losing the ability to walk, but obese women were three to six times more likely to lose their mobility. For African-American and Hispanic women who were overweight or obese, the odds of disease, disability or death before age 85 were higher yet.
What this study doesn't address is whether losing weight later in life can protect older women from disease and disability. But the researchers are working on that. (And of course, some factor other than obesity might be involved because — all together now — correlation is not causation.)
But we shouldn't wait for Dr. Rillamas-Sun's next publication to try to reduce obesity in older women.
Paging the First Lady. Women often do gain weight after menopause, and losing it can be harder than when we're 35 (a challenge with which I'm all too familiar). But it's not impossible, and the effort is worth undertaking — for our aging parents, and for ourselves.
"This says, you can't be in denial any longer," said Dr. Rillamas-Sun. "Most people need to see the numbers; they prove what is supposedly obvious. And we do have the numbers."

How can I prevent it from doing this? This bug messes things up really annoyingly. For instance the cells from tableviews are 1000 points in width and I can't resize back to screen width. Its subviews are also influenced. I have to delete the old cell and put in a new one.

GWM (Great Wall Motors) officially signed a share sales and purchase agreement with GM (General Motors) to acquire GM's production facilities in Rayong, Thailand
Zhong Li
Bangkok – GWM (Great Wall Motors) officially signed a share sales and purchase agreement with GM (General Motors) to acquire GM's production facilities in Rayong, Thailand, as the company pave way to make Thailand its ASEAN production base for domestic and export for new energy vehicles and internal-combustion engine models.
With a plan to begin its production in the first quarter of 2021, GWM is set to transform Thailand and the region's automotive industry as part of its vision to be a "Global Mobility Technology Company".
GWM's move to set up its production base in Thailand kicked off in February this year when the company started negotiation with GM to acquire, under a signed binding term sheet, GM Thailand and GM Powertrain Thailand legal entities, which include the Rayong vehicle assembly and powertrain facilities.
The two companies have reached a conclusion recently and officially signed the Share Sales and Purchase Agreement (SSPA), represented by Elliot Zhang, President, GWM ASEAN & Thailand, and Joseph Urso, Director of Corporate Development, Global Mergers & Acquisitions, GM International. Rayong plant is remarked as the eleventh full-scale automobile manufacturing base of GWM worldwide.
"GM is pleased to see that the world-class Rayong production facilities will continue to play an important role in the development of the Thai and ASEAN automotive industry and the broader economic development of the Kingdom of Thailand".
Joseph Urso, Director of Corporate Development, Global Mergers & Acquisitions, GM International, commented,
GM opened its first diesel engine plant in Southeast Asia in Thailand's industrial Rayong province on September 9, 2011.
lliot Zhang, President, GWM ASEAN & Thailand, revealed, "while ASEAN automotive industry is clearly on its growth trend, Thailand has strong fundamentals as a leader in this industry and is regarded as one of the world's best locations to establish an automobile production base, thanks to its readiness in terms of workforce and well-developed automotive ecosystem.
Upon handover of assets as a result of the signing, this engine and vehicle production hub will be renovated and undergo system upgrades to become a smart factory by GWM's global standards for an automobile production hub. It will boast GWM's expertise and capability in SUV and pickup truck production, including advanced powertrain technologies, giving it the ability to produce internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles and electric vehicles such as hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and battery electric vehicles (BEVs). Moreover, it will be fully equipped with production automation innovations and technologies, such as AI, to maximize operational efficiency.
GWM will also invest in production equipment and product research and development for Thai and Southeast Asian markets as well as skills development of the production workforce."
GWM is expanding its business and brand presence across the world with a vision to be a "Global Mobility Technology Company" that enhances people's lives with technology and innovation. Currently, the company has 10 R&D centers in 7 countries and operates 15 factories worldwide where Thailand will be the latest addition.
Thai production hub will become operational in the first quarter of 2021 with automobile production capacity of 80,000 units per annum. In addition to bringing job opportunities to people and growth to the automotive supply chain, the new investment by GWM will contribute to R&D progress in support of Thailand's automotive industry development and help spur related industries to enable continued growth of the Thai economy at large.

RCEP and China: Reimagining the future of trade in Asia
The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) could eventually usher in an era of much deeper regional integration: for corporates doing business in the region, their future success may well hinge on how adeptly they manage to navigate the evolution of Asia's trade landscape under the RCEP.
Headline Editor
Last month, 15 countries in the Asia-Pacific region – including the 10 member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) as well as China, Australia, Japan, New Zealand, and South Korea – signed the landmark Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) on the final day of the 37th ASEAN Summit.

November 13th 2016 marked the day that Bring Me The Horizon would play their biggest headliner show in The Netherlands yet.
Over the course of the years, the Sheffield rockers have moved up the ladder quite rapidly.
Late last year they played in front of 3.000 people, this year that was a booming 6.000.
Their fifth studio-album 'That's The Spirit' made waves in ways that could not be foreseen.
Together with While She Sleeps and Basement, Amsterdam wasn't ready for the all destructive evening filled with rock, metal and electronics.
We were there and were able to make some photos!
