Asian Medical Students' Association (AMSA) International is a peak representative organisation for medical students from across Asia, the Asia-Pacific, and beyond. AMSA has trained future doctors-to-be to share knowledge, undertake activities and social services and create international friendships.
AMSA International was officially founded at the sixth Asian Medical Students' Conference (AMSC), which was held at Manila, the Philippines in 1985. Enthusiastic AMSA members from nine different nations – Australia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Taiwan and Thailand, gathered at the conference and founded the prestigious international organisation. The member nations increased gradually as the founding members of AMSA inspired neighbouring countries with its admirable vision.
Today, AMSA International has grown into a dynamic student-led, not-for-profit, non-political organisation. With members and friends spanning the globe, AMSA International has branched and introduced many exciting subsidiaries and
activities to be undertaken regionally and nationally within the member nations. With our amazing partners and sponsors, we are able to have inter-organisational collaborations of academic, sociocultural and public health coverage, not to forget the exchange projects that have managed to foster trans-continental long-lasting friendships.
To promote understanding in medical and health problems, as well as to share experiences in solving them.
To uphold humanitarian ideals and medical ethics.
To promote the interest and welfare of medical students in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond.
To foster unity and promote profound interpersonal relationships amongst its Members.
To encourage cooperation among future doctors in the Asia‐Pacific region and beyond.
Chairperson's Address
Dear People of Tomorrow,
It is the 36th anniversary of AMSA International, and I am honored to be elected as Overall Chairperson of AMSA International Tenure 2021/2022.
First of all, I would like to deliver my gratitude to all Regional Chairpersons for entrusting the team. The Executive Committee Tenure 2021/2022 are comprised of 19 members from Taiwan, Indonesia, India, Malaysia, and Kyrgyzstan.
Ever since the COVID-19 outbreak, it has been the worst of times yet the best of times.
Travel restriction and border controls gave us no choice but to undergo Force Majeure. However, AMSA International managed to divert the focus from biannual conferences to digital transformation. A great variety of online events—masterclasses, seedership programs, and even organisational rebranding all initiated in the seemingly hopeless year. As the pandemic gradually mitigates, AMSA International is ready to re-evaluate the feasibility of physical activities, while ameliorating the quality and quantity of online ones.
For decades, AMSA International has been a platform not only horizontally connecting medical students worldwide, but also vertically linking them to prominent scholars, activists, and their doctor counterparts. Undoubtedly, AMSA International is an incubator where doctor-to-be acquire knowledge and soft skills, take actions for a sustainable future, and forge life-long friendships cross-culturally. Meanwhile, AMSA International is an accelerator to empower youth, to visualize superb ideas, and to shape the world around us collectively. Hence, as Overall Chairperson Tenure 2021/2022, I promise to lead the organisation to new heights.
We appreciate every each of your presence since active participation of general member is the fundamental of every organisation. If you are interested in partnering with AMSA or embarking on an AMSA-mazing journey, feel free to drop a message to me (chair@amsa-international.org).

The Future is Local
Babes in Arms
The Independents
Arthouse Reviews: Wild Tales
By ArtHouse Crouch End, 02 Apr 2015
It's what writer-director Szifrón calls 'the undeniable pleasure of losing control' and it's certainly an undeniable pleasure to watch his film Wild Tales. At times it's also very shocking, tense and difficult but most of all it's laugh out loud, hilarious.
Here are six short films tied together by a common theme about how corruption, injustice, greed and revenge breed more of the same. And it's hard to ignore in this dark satire on middle class society, the long dark shadow cast by Argentina's recent past.
It's about what happens when ordinary people are pushed beyond the limits of self control and polite society, morality, conventions and legal niceties are blown apart suddenly and irreversibly as events spiral unstoppably into madness. There is no emotion more viscerally necessary than revenge. And here revenge is portrayed with all the wonderful satisfaction it brings to those who plot it and carry it out. Revenge by the bullied, the jilted, the humiliated, the powerless. If you've ever been driven to distraction by bureaucracy, or been the victim of cowboy traffic wardens, or experienced the craziness of road rage, this film will be a truly cathartic experience. Making sense of the results of such destructive insanity is not easy, as the police who arrive at the scene of devastation in 'The Strongest' discover.
You can laugh at the extreme reactions of a group of characters caught up in emotions we all recognise, safe in the knowledge this is only a film. So the problem with the first story, 'Pasternak', is that while it starts as a very funny slow-dawning realisation of why everyone is together on a plane, we quickly become aware of the terrible coincidence with contemporary events. That can't help but affect our reaction to the story, but it's 'The Proposal' which is the darkest and cleverest of the tales, in which corruption, injustice and inequality are laid bare. The piece de resistance must surely be the last of the six stories, the hilarious 'Til Death do us Part' where all the paraphernalia of the perfectly planned wedding is systematically trashed by the vengeful newly-wed.
The cinematography is brilliant, the soundtrack outstanding and the acting superb, with a roll call of Argentine talent including Ricardo Darín, Leonardo Sbaraglia, Oscar Martinez and Erica Rivas. Co-produced by Almodóvar.

Роберт Сидни, 1-й граф Лестер (; 19 ноября 1563, Пенхёрст, Кент — 13 июля 1626, там же) — второй сын сэра Генри Сидни, государственный деятель Елизаветинской эпохи и времени Якова I Английского. Он был также покровителем искусств и выдающимся поэтом. Его мать, Мэри Сидни, урождённая Дадли, была фрейлиной королевы Елизаветы I и сестрой Роберта Дадли, 1-го графа Лестера, советника и фаворита королевы.

Карьера
Сидни получил образование в Крайст-Черч, Оксфорд, после чего путешествовал по континенту в течение нескольких лет между 1578 и 1583 годами. В 1585 году он был избран членом парламента по Гламоргану; и в том же году он отправился со своим старшим братом сэром Филипом Сидни в Нидерланды, где участвовал в войне против Испании под командованием Роберта Дадли. Он принимал участие в битве при Зютфене, где сэр Филип Сидни был смертельно ранен, и остался со своим братом в Нидерландах.

После посещения Шотландии с дипломатической миссией в 1588 году и Франции по аналогичному поручению в 1593 году Сидни вернулся в Нидерланды в 1606 году, где участвовал в войне в течение следующих двух лет. В 1588 году он был назначен губернатором занятого англичанами портового города Флиссинген (англ. название Флашинг) и проводил там много времени. В 1595 году он отправил своего бизнес-менеджера Роуленда Уайта ко двору, чтобы лоббировать ресурсы для Флашинга и чтобы тот доставлял ему информацию о событиях при дворе, включая последние политические сплетни. Письма Уайта предоставляют основной источник для историков того периода. Сам Уайт регулярно жаловался на неразборчивый почерк ответов своего работодателя.

В 1603 году, после восшествия на престол Якова I, Сидни вернулся в Англию. Яков сразу же дал ему титул пэра, и Сидни стал бароном Сидни из Пенхёрста, камергером королевы-консорт Анны Датской. В 1605 году ему был присвоен титул барона Лайла. И, наконец, в 1618 году он получил титул графа Лестера.

Семья

Роберт Сидни женился дважды. 23 сентября 1584 года его супругой стала Барбара Гамадж, дочь Джона Гамаджа, владельца замка Coity, джентльмена из Гламоргана. От неё у Сидни было одиннадцать детей. Барбара умерла в мае 1621 года.

 Сэр Уильям Сидни (умер в 1613), его старший сын, который скончался раньше своего отца неженатым и бездетным.
 Роберт Сидни, 2-й граф Лестер, второй сын и наследник.
 Генри Сидни
 Филип Сидни
 Мэри Сидни, (леди Мэри Рот, 1587—1651/3), вышедшая замуж за сэра Роберта Рота, она походила на своего отца и была поэтом; Бен Джонсон посвятил ей пьесу Алхимик в 1612 году.
 Кэтрин Сидни
 Филиппа Сидни, вышла замуж за сэра Джона Хобарта, 2-го баронета, третьего сына сэра Генри Хобарта (1-й баронет, лорд-главный судья Общегражданских исков и предок графов Бакингемшира).
 Барбара Сидни
 Дороти Сидни
 Элизабет Сидни
 Бриджит Сидни

25 апреля 1625 года граф женился на Саре Блаунт (Sarah Blount), дочери Уильяма Блаунта и вдове сэра Томаса Смайта.

Музыка и поэзия

Лестер был человеком со вкусом и покровителем литературы, чей деревенский образ жизни в его поместье Penshurst Place был описан в стихах Беном Джонсоном.

Роберт Сидни был покровителем музыкантов, что подтверждается тем, что ему были посвящены First Booke of Songes and Ayres (Первая книга песен и арий, 1600) Роберта Джонса и Musicall Banquet (Музыкальный пир, 1610), составленный Робертом Доулендом, сыном композитора Джона Доуленда. Сидни согласился стать крестным отцом сына Джона Доуленда, и «Музыкальный пир» открывается гальярдой Джона Доуленда под названием «Гальярда Сэра Роберта Сидни».

Хотя он был братом одного из самых известных английских поэтов, никто не подозревал, что Роберт Сидни сам был поэтом, пока в 1960-х годах не была обнаружена его тетрадь (в переплёте 19-го века) в результате разбора Библиотеки Уорикского замка. Последующее исследование показало, что она была приобретена в 1848 году. Тетрадь была продана снова на аукционе в Сотбис и приобретена Британской библиотекой в 1975 году; автограф, как указывал его первый редактор П.Дж. Крофт, «самый большой массив стихов елизаветинского периода, сохранившийся в рукописи, целиком и полностью написанный самим поэтом». Тетрадь датируется второй половиной 1590-х годов, когда Роберт Сидни был губернатором Флашинга. Коллекция включает 66 сонетов, песни, пасторали, элегии и отрывки, по-видимому, сочинённые как своего рода ответ на книгу «Астрофел и Стелла» Филиппа Сидни. Они показывают Роберта Сидни как защитника неоплатонической философии, любителя и знатока большого разнообразия стихотворных форм. Тот факт, что некоторые из стихов основаны на известных тогда мелодиях, подтверждает его интерес к музыке.

Shell has applied for a permit to drill for oil in the Alaskan Arctic next summer.
The company hasn't made a final decision to persevere with summer drilling in the difficult location,but proposals submitted to Washington kept options open. The plan proposes two drilling rigs in the Chukchi Sea, producing more than 400,000 barrels a day.
Environmentalists staunchly oppose oil exploration in the Arctic. They point to difficult conditions and fragile landscape, meaning an oil spill would be damaging and challenging to contain.

Beware health care pitfalls
by Sheila Liaugminas Mar 20, 2010 May 1, 2020 / 2 mins /
Like….'Demon Pass'.
We've been hearing nearly all week about the odd maneuver the House may try this weekend called 'deem and pass' or 'the no-vote vote' as some have called it. But the first time I'd heard it put another way was on Friday evening's Newshour with Jim Lehrer in the Shields and Brooks segment.
First David Brooks said this:
I find the deem and pass, this idea that we're not going vote on it, we're just going to deem it passed and then vote on the amendments, I find that so repulsive, I'm — I'm out of my skin with anger about that.
Lehrer asks why.
David Brooks: To me, you take responsibility. You take responsibility. If you support something, you vote for it, and then you vote for the amendment. And then you take responsibility.
The idea that you are dodging responsibility, that Nancy Pelosi — I have a quote here. She said: "I like it," deem and pass, "because people don't have to vote on the Senate bill."
That is a betrayal of everything we teach our children about democracy. And the fact that people are thinking about this means they're so deep in the weeds about trying to get this passed, they have decided the ends justify any means.
Brooks was unusually animated and making a compelling argument.
But it would — they think it would make it slightly politically easier if the American people are stupid enough to say, oh, I didn't vote for the bill, I just voted for the amendments, for some members.
I find this a total insult to the democratic process.
Mark Shields doesn't like it either, and he was the first I heard utter the new name for the maneuver.
I am not recommending deem and pass, which now has become "demon pass." It sort of sounds diabolical in the public language. I'm not recommending that by any means.
Here's the rest:
DAVID BROOKS: Vote for the damn bill. If you support it, vote for the bill.
MARK SHIELDS: They are voting for the bill.
DAVID BROOKS: Don't dodge around it. It is just terrible. It's just — and, by the way, when they do deem and pass, they have taken the Senate down another degrading road through reconciliation.
We have the Senate as separate from the House because simple majority doesn't rule in the Senate. Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Hillary Clinton were all against simple majoritarianism when the Republicans were in control. Now it will be just like the House, where you only need 51 votes. That gives tremendous power to the leaders. It totally undermines any thought that we should ever have cross-party negotiations.
Now for the Slaughter, says Peggy Noonan…

Miki Agrawal's TUSHY Enjoys Impressive Growth in 2021
By Exec Edge Editorial Staff
Launching a new business in an established industry presents significant challenges. For serial entrepreneur Miki Agrawal, making inroads into the United States' long-established toilet paper industry was a major undertaking. For perspective, this widely used bathroom staple had not seen much innovation since it was first introduced in the mid-19thcentury.
However, Miki Agrawal was determined to change that. She had long been dissatisfied with toilet paper's ineffectiveness and link to several medical conditions. She was also concerned about the material's negative environmental impacts, as toilet paper production required wood pulp from millions of trees.
To address these deficiencies and offer an alternative bathroom hygiene product, Agrawal led the development of the TUSHY bidet toilet attachment in 2015. After several years of steady growth, the TUSHY team celebrated several major milestones in 2021. As TUSHY's Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Miki Agrawal continues to lead this dynamic development and marketing team.
TUSHY Reshapes the American Bathroom
Focusing on both aesthetics and functionality, Miki Agrawal premiered the first TUSHY product in 2015. This streamlined bidet attachment easily clips onto the user's toilet, and the device only requires one pint of water per use. Each TUSHY user also enjoys cost savings resulting from reduced toilet paper use.
As sometimes occurs with a groundbreaking product, TUSHY's introduction brought its share of skepticism. Aware that some observers did not fully understand how TUSHY works, Miki Agrawal allayed concerns by emphasizing the bidet attachment's water source. Specifically, she explained that TUSHY operates with clean water pumped from the wall, not water recycled from the toilet tank or bowl.
TP Shortages Spur Higher TUSHY Sales
Following several years of steady growth, TUSHY product sales began to surge during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. When news first spread of toilet paper shortages in March 2020, TUSHY sales increased by 10X. This innovative product scored its first (and not last) million-dollar day (and this was on top of the brand already selling well over double what it sold in 2019!).
Today, TUSHY bidet sales are 5X higher than they were before the pandemic. TUSHY has cleaned approximately two million butts and saved roughly two million trees. Finally, TUSHY's partnership with Samagra has helped 60,000 families gain access to clean toilets in India.
Miki Agrawal is understandably excited about TUSHY's increasingly wide market acceptance. She is also pleased about the product's benefits to the environment. "It's a no-brainer," she declares. "I love love love being able to question something and then provide a tangible solution to solve for it."
Expanding the TUSHY Footprint
Not content to rest on its laurels, TUSHY has grown its team by 2.5X to enable further expansion. The Company has also invested in R&D to innovate with its first-ever electric bidet seat, the TUSHY Ace. Finally, the TUSHY 3.0 Classic & Spa have received a redesign.
Next, the Company recently introduced new thoughtful, sustainable bathroom products. TUSHY also changed bathrooms forever with the full TUSHY System. This coordinated collection includes everything needed to turn the restroom into the best room.
TUSHY Ace Launch
After intensive market research, TUSHY further streamlined the bathroom experience with its TUSHY Ace launch. The brand introduced its first-ever electric bidet seat in 2021. Miki Agrawal explains the sleek-looking TUSHY's appeal.
"We learned through extensive market research that the most important features people want are a heated seat, warm water, and a blow dryer for the bottom so that they can go tree-free and toilet paper-free forever! Anything else is too much so we kept it simple and effective. We also learned that people find most existing bidet seat remote controls to be confusing, so we made ours not only the most aesthetically pleasing, but also the most user-friendly," Agrawal concludes.
TUSHY's Retail Debut
Achieving widespread retail distribution helps to catapult a brand to the next level. In November 2021, TUSHY accomplished that goal by announcing that Walmart stores nationwide now carry the TUSHY Classic 2.0. This notable partnership marks TUSHY's first entry into brick-and-mortar distribution channels.
Customers can now purchase the TUSHY Classic 2.0 at Walmart (NYSE: WMT) stores across the United States. TUSHY's 10-minute installation does not require electricity or plumbing.
The TUSHY Classic 2.0 features include a pressure control nozzle, self-cleaning nozzle, and nozzle adjuster. TUSHY's streamlined design is elegantly simple, and this efficient device fits into any bathroom décor.
Why TUSHY is a Better Choice
TUSHY's Miki Agrawal emphasizes TUSHY's advantages over toilet paper. "Buying a TUSHY one time is much cheaper than buying toilet paper over and over again, is much cleaner and healthier, prevents the spread of bacteria and viruses, and is way better for the planet," she states.
"Cultures all over the world have been using water to wash for centuries, yet there's still a stigma associated with bidets in the United States — one that we're passionate about dismantling. The ability to pick up a TUSHY at a retail behemoth like Walmart is a major step towards revolutionizing America's bathrooms and pooping habits for good," Agrawal remarks.
Miki Agrawal's Vision Drives TUSHY's Success
TUSHY's commanding market presence, and the Company's ambitious plans for continued growth, are the outgrowth of Miki Agrawal's out-of-the-box thinking. This wildly creative entrepreneur has developed a vision for TUSHY's future, and she has gathered a high-energy team to execute those goals.
An Entrepreneurial Journey Begins
Miki Agrawal's multicultural upbringing enables her to see the world through varied lenses. Her Japanese mother and Indian father, and her childhood in French Montreal, contributed to her ability to enjoy multiple perspectives on any subject.
After gaining a traditional business education, Agrawal was working in New York City's financial industry when the 9-11 attacks occurred. Not surprisingly, this event spurred her to reevaluate her life's direction.
Stepping away from the corporate world, Miki Agrawal briefly played professional soccer until she was benched with an injury. Next, she worked in video production. However, the unhealthy on-set meals began to wreak havoc on her digestive system.
Miki Agrawal's frustration at the lack of healthier meal options led her to open her Wild gluten-free restaurant in 2006. Several years before gluten-free foods went mainstream, this New York City-based eatery was reflective of Agrawal's desire to disrupt traditional industries that had historically seen very little innovation.
Disrupting Two Very "Taboo" Industries
Next, Miki Agrawal turned her attention to the menstrual products industry, an arena with only three major innovations in over 100 years. Her Thinx period-proof underwear debuted in 2014, and the product carved out a new submarket that continues to grow.
Buoyed by Thinx's success, Agrawal launched TUSHY in 2015. This stylish new bidet toilet attachment has brought growing attention to another category rarely discussed in conventional circles.
Miki Agrawal's penchant for challenging the status quo has put these two "taboo" industries in the spotlight. In fact, her desire to shake up the marketplace has been the catalyst for each of her successful business ventures.
"Questioning philosophy showed up in my entrepreneurial career as I looked to enter categories that have been 'set for a long time' with little to no innovation, like the period and poop spaces. These categories were 'taboo,' and since nobody was talking about these topics out loud, nobody was innovating in them, either. Yet, every single being poops and every female has a period! I knew that I could harness creativity and innovation and disrupt tired old categories that sorely needed elevating," she mused.
What's Next for TUSHY
As Miki Agrawal's strategic marketing vision propels TUSHY forward, she has planned a memorable reveal for early 2022. The "Bellagio Fountain" of TUSHY bidets will involve multiple TUSHYs, symphony music, and a light and sound fountain show. Agrawal predicts that this innovative event will help to further elevate the TUSHY brand.
Creative Marketing Strategies Abound
Miki Agrawal is a strong believer in the value of experiential marketing. Besides contributing to innovative product introductions, she feels that this marketing tactic taps into underlying human nature.
"I want TUSHY to become the "OK Go" of DTC (or direct-to-consumer) brands, where we put out wild and inventive videos that are highly shareable, bringing people into our world and into the top of the funnel. We are taking bigger creative risks as our company grows, and that feels really good."

Q: Excel VBA: auto click and open file from website Thanks to Qharr, I have successfully performed auto search on the website.(My previous question:
Excel VBA: Cannot perform auto search on website)
I have another question concerning the next step: I would always like to click the first link that appears after clicking the search button, and open the file in order to extract certain data. Is there any ways to do that? Thanks!
Codes that I have at present:
Option Explicit
Sub Searchstockcode()

    Dim SearchString As String, SearchBox As Object, SearchButton As Object, ie As Object

    SearchString = "2828"

    Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")

    ie.Visible = True

    ie.navigate "http://www.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/advancedsearch/search_active_main.aspx"

    While ie.Busy Or ie.readyState < 4: DoEvents: Wend

    Set SearchBox = ie.document.getElementById("ctl00_txt_stock_code")
    SearchBox.Value = SearchString

    Set SearchButton = ie.document.querySelector("[src*='/image/search.gif']")

Renovated and independent apartment with every comfort.
Apartment renovated and undergoing furnishings in the center of Ragusa, 20m from a large supermarket (Interspar / Eurospar / Despar chain), 100m from the bus stop and the central Corso Italia, 300m from the Cathedral of St. Giovanni and countless historical sites, churches, museums and art galleries.
The apartment has an independent access, covers about 80 square meters and consists of lounge, double bedroom (with cot), kitchen and dining room, large bathroom with shower, hallway and closets.
Equipped with every comfort, it is ideal for families with children and / or elderly people, and for anyone who wants to have almost everything at hand, without having to resort to the use of a motor vehicle.
However, you will need a means, public or private, to reach, for example, the wonderful Ragusa Ibla (15 '), the famous towns of Modica (20'), Sicli (30 ') and Marina di Ragusa (20') - the latter with its immaculate beaches, also equipped with services such as toilets and showers completely free.
Returning to the apartment, it is on the ground floor of a 3-storey building, of which I occupy the two upper floors, also completely independent of yours: therefore, absolute and mutual privacy, even if I will be available for each of your need, both before your arrival and during your stay - if you lack the sugar and the supermarket around the corner is closed, do not hesitate to contact me! :-) If you want, we can share a coffee in my large balcony on the 2nd floor, where maybe I can also invite you for a barbecue of local specialties ... in short, maximum privacy but also something more, if you want.
Or again: a rental boat for the next day? Two family smoking pizzas at home when you return from a long day at the beach? A private plane tour flying over the Iblei Mountains? Transfer to / from airport, port or railway station by private car? Just tell me and it will be done.
The neighborhood in which you live is very quiet and peaceful, ideal to be close to the most important attractions and also to the events of the sign - but perfect for that afternoon nap without the slightest inconvenience.
You will choose how and when to go from the rest to the active life of your favorite holiday - and if you love being revved, then you can be when you want it, without having to resort to particular substances: just savor those precious virtues of local life that they said one day to the undersigned (I'm a Ukrainian doctor now very Italian): here you are spoiled by many beauties.

MOD MUSTN'T REPEAT HASLAR MISTAKE SAYS MP
This week in Defence Questions, Gosport MP, Caroline Dinenage, called for MOD procurement & disposal processes, left in place by the last Labour government, to be improved, so that taxpayers and local communities see maximum benefits.
Caroline is committed to protecting the area's defence industry and frequently raises questions about local military issues in Parliament. The Gosport constituency has an extremely deep-rooted military history and so ensuring that MoD disposals of military establishments - such as Fort Blockhouse - benefit the constituents of Gosport is of the utmost importance.
Caroline asked:
"I would also like to express my condolences on the loss of Jack Dromey, who made his maiden speech the same day that I made mine. I was very fond of him.
"I have no doubt that some of the procurement processes that were inherited from the last Labour Government led to some of the flaws in the Ajax programme. I say that because it is emblematic of a catalogue of wasteful decisions such as the selling off of the Royal Naval Hospital Haslar in 2009 for £3 million when it had reportedly been valued at £52 million.
"Could the Minister please assure me that the MOD's procurement and disposal decisions, such as that involving Fort Blockhouse at Gosport, will maximise the benefit for the taxpayer and for local communities?"
Jeremy Quinn MP, The Minister of State, Ministry of Defence responded:
"I congratulate my honourable friend on her elevation and it's good to see. She refers Mr Speaker to the approval process. That was indeed under the last Labour administration. I think passed main gate approval in March 2010. At around the same time the NAO was pointing out there are multi billion pounds of black hole that the Labour party was leaving in defence at that point in time.
"Getting on to Fort Blockhouse, I don't believe that will be disposed of until I think 2023, so there is time to get this right. I'm more than happy to meet the honourable lady if that is helpful?"
Commenting Caroline said:
"Following the Defence Estate Review in 2016 that announced the closure of Fort Blockhouse I have worked hard to ensure that the best possible outcomes are received for the sites"
"I am pleased that the Minister is willing to discuss the future disposal of Fort Blockhouse and will urge him to prioritise the best interest of Gosport's constituents."
Caroline Backs Female-led Business
Local MP, Caroline Dinenage, has called for the Government to provide further support for women in enterprise who have been disproportionately affected by the coronavirus pandemic.

Question: "Did God create sin?"
Answer: God created the universe in six days, but, originally, the universe had no sin—everything He made was "very good" (Genesis 1:31). Sin entered the cosmos due to an act of rebellion against God, not because God created sin.
We need to define "sin." First John 3:4 says, "Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness." Sin, therefore, is any violation of God's holy law. Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." According to this verse, sin is anything (words, thoughts, actions, and motivations) that falls short of God's glory and perfection. All of us sin. Romans 3:23 also teaches that we must know the character of God before we can accurately define sin, because His glory is the standard by which we measure it (Psalm 119:160; John 17:17). Without a perfect standard, there is no way to determine whether something is imperfect. Without the absolute standard of God's glory, every word or action would be judged by the faulty, shifting standard of imperfect people. Every rule, law, and moral tenet would become a matter of opinion. And man's opinion is as varied and changeable as the weather.
If a builder builds upon a foundation that is not square, he risks the integrity of the entire project. The building does not get better as it goes up; it gets weaker and more out of line. However, when the starting point is perfect, the rest of the structure will be sound. Moral foundations work the same way. Without God's moral law, we have no way of knowing right from wrong. Sin is moving away from what is right. The further we get from God's moral standard, the worse the sin becomes.
God created men and angels with a free will, and, if a being has a free will, there is at least the potential that he will choose badly. The potential for sin was a risk God took. He created human beings in His image, and, since He is free, humans were created free, too (Genesis 1:27). Free will involves the ability to choose, and, after God communicated the moral standard, He gave the man a true choice (Genesis 2:16). Adam chose disobedience. God did not tempt, coerce, or lure Adam into disobedience. James 1:13 says, "When tempted, no one should say, 'God is tempting me.' For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone." God allowed Adam the dignity of free choice and honored that choice with appropriate consequences (Romans 5:12).
God provided the opportunity to sin, but He did not create or instigate sin. Having the opportunity was good; without it, human beings would be little more than robots. God commands, pleads, and encourages us to follow Him (Exodus 19:5; Deuteronomy 12:28; 1 Samuel 15:22). He promises blessings, fellowship, and protection when we obey (Jeremiah 7:23; Psalm 115:11; Luke 11:28). But He does not chain us. God did not put a fence around the forbidden tree in the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve had freedom to choose obedience or disobedience. When they chose sin, they also chose the consequences that went with it (Genesis 3:16–24).
God judges people (Ecclesiastes 12:14) and nations (Micah 5:15) who use their free will to rebel against Him. God did not and does not create sin, nor does He delight in punishing those who choose to sin (Ezekiel 33:11). His desire is that all come to repentance and experience the blessing and joy of eternal life with Him (2 Peter 3:9).
What does it mean that sin is lawlessness?
Does God sometimes use evil to accomplish His plans (Habakkuk 1:5-11)?

Syracuse guard Kaleb Joseph transferring
SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) Syracuse guard Kaleb Joseph, relegated to the bench for most of his sophomore season, is transferring, according to coach Jim Boeheim.
Barry Connors of Cushing Academy in Massachusetts, Joseph's high school coach, said Joseph had not yet made a decision on a new school.
Joseph played in 19 games this past season, averaging only 6 minutes, and did not play in the Orange's four-game run to the Final Four. He started all but one of the team's 31 games as a freshman, but was passed over for the starting point guard spot in the offseason by fifth-year senior Michael Gbinije.
Freshman Frank Howard assumed the backup role to Gbinije during the second half of the 2015-16 season.
Joseph had 119 assists with 72 turnovers and averaged 5.9 points as a freshman.

This is not Meg. This is a model.
Overall, her message is one of desperation; she makes a general appeal for guidance after being hit by a string of bad, nonsensical outcomes. She went to school for many years and paid a lot of money only to have the American economy ignore her existence.
"So tell me, Internet," she writes, "what is a person to do in this situation?" She got one response, from a site promoting a shoe sale.
Meg is far from alone in feeling ripped off by the education industry. She, after all, did pretty much what students are told to do: Stay in school. Follow your passion. America will make a place for all motivated, educated people. But because around half of new college graduates are un-, under- or marginally employed these days, their success rate when it comes to finding good jobs is the same as that of marriages: half fail. The numbers are worse and regret levels higher for students who majored in the arts.
McKinsey & Company, a global management firm, recently examined this trend of regret felt by students like Meg. The company's report, Voice of the graduate, reinforces Bureau of Labor Statistics data showing a generation of overeducated workers or a badly underperforming, inefficient job market, depending on how you look at it. The Voice report found that many students tend to regret their undergraduate majors, with significant numbers of those who studied arts and humanities wishing they had taken a different path.
As the Megs of the world cry out in desperation asking what to do and what they did wrong, the education industry over the past 30 years has been unstoppable.
Its position as a doorman collecting admission for entrance into our economy has allowed its prices and demands on consumers to become utterly disconnected from what it delivers.
While education is marketed as a public good, in practice it is big business, even to the point of following the strange American penchant for outsized executive salaries.
A recent analysis of top executive salaries at private colleges found a record number of presidents (42) making more than $1 million McChickens a year. The very top earners saw their compensation double and triple in short periods of time.
Regardless of where you stand on the executive salary debate (I tend to think it's a simple moral hazard thing), the staggering rise in the cost of a college education (more than 1,000 percent since the 1970s), makes it clear that the education industry, like any business, is focused on its own growth and not with how students fare once they leave campus.
Otherwise, people like Meg wouldn't be starting blogs about joblessness and debt, a story that has become so common no one bats an eye.
Education in the purest sense is essential in a democracy and makes us free on both personal and organizational levels, but having this necessity pass through the hands of industry has put us $1 trillion in debt, arguably one of the nastiest ways people lose life options. Understanding and addressing this tension between business and education will likely be critical to keeping us from continuing to see a generation of Megs, young people sidelined for their most productive years and unlikely to ever catch up.
See the McKinsey report here.
See university execs' salaries tallied by the Chronicle of Higher Education here.
Meg resurrected her blog, The Homeless and Unemployed College Grad, as typewriterpeople.com prepared to run this story. Her first post in two years: How to Get By on Free Food, Or Nearly Free.

This photo and these women are not only mystic and beautiful on their own, but the whole image really gives me Solange-esque vibes--very intense and even a little dangerous.
"Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak." – Rachel Zoe aka one of my favorite quote because of the overwhelming truth of it.
Solange Knowles I DECIDED from M2 Management on Vimeo.
These two masculine, suit looks are definitely my top two favorites. She combines her free flowing feminitiy with masculinity by wearing this suit with free flowing hair and no shirt underneath. This whole look contrasts a firm edginess with an abundant ethereal quality. AND THE CLOUD PANTS. THE CLOUD PANTS!!! Yall I basically love anything with clouds. I COULD DIE AND GO TO HEAVEN AND I'D BE KICKIN IT ON THESE CLOUDS because 1) They're cloud print and 2) They've been blessed by Solange's legs.
More of Solange's urban, vintage taste can be found in these looks and it all adds up to her cool factor. Style really is unrestricted to clothing; it seeps into the way you live your life and the way you just are, and her style, her lifestyle, seems to be exactly that. Unrestricted, free, natural, and spiriful <3 So even beyond her outrageously amazing wardrobe, Solange is someone I consider to be an icon in general. She does it all and she kills everything she does! She's a singer, an actress, a style icon, a mother, a wife, and she's playing all of these roles cooly and so effortlessly.
The fluid movement in this dress looks like it could literally blow you away.
I think I'm a little pissed at how perfect these two are, but, nonetheless, best of luck to this stylish power couple!
Solange is a queen. Very underrated, but still so beautiful and carefree. I have so much love and respect for her!
I agree x10 <3 Kinda makes you want to join the Knowles family for a little while to see if the queen gene will rub off on you too.
Oh man... her style is so amazing. Every look kills me. I love her!!! The fashion quotes you added are super inspiring too!
Solange is everything. Like she's so revolutionary but in the simplest way. I mean, she's just living life, doing her thing, getting this money, being the epitome of care free black girls and all in the loveliest aesthetics possible.
