It is a first step towards any sound financial planning and particularly so in planning for retirement. Without knowledge of your current expenses (CE), it is almost impossible to understand what sort of annual or monthly budget would be required few decades down the line. More so it is difficult to judge how much of saving is possible without understanding the outflow.
You may be able to identify extravagant expenses & make appropriate cuts in your CE to clinch that goal of early retirement. These days there are variety of apps available, such as Finart, to help you automatically track and categorize your spending.
Cost of Living is a subjective term and depends on your city & lifestyle. But it can be crudely defined as the expenses required for bare necessities such as house, groceries, transport etc.
If you are supporting a family, it will also include their expenses such as Children's school fees etc.
Use your discretion to filter through your current expenses (CE) over last few months to come up with a final CoL number. This is a non-negotiable amount which you will require month-over-month.
Your cost of living (CoL) consumes a significant portion of your income (e.g. between 60-100%) It becomes rather difficult to do reasonable savings. In this case, make sure you save at least 10% of income even if it requires some cuts in your current expenses and/or CoL. If you can do more savings, the better. Do not allocate budget for any luxury/discretionary spending until you are saving at least 25% of your income.
Your cost of living is much less than income (e.g. 40% or below) It indicates you are in a higher income bracket relative to your CoL. In this case target a saving of 40% or more of your income as you can afford to do the same. This will still leave a room of about 10% for your luxury/discretionary spending to improve your quality of life.
Let's say you want to continue with your current lifestyle in your retirement period as well. An intuitive estimate is if you save as much as your expenses from today onward, you will be able to enjoy as many years of retired life as the remainder of your working years.
But this is based on assumption that the instrument of your investment is close to inflation index in your country. For example, If the inflation in your country is close to 10%, you need to target an investments which can give at least similar returns. Keep in mind that returns have to be post-tax.
Let's say a long-term fixed deposit gives close to 6% p.a. post tax You might want to split the investments into some high-gain medium-risk mutual funds which are giving close to 15% per annum. Look for their historical performance. Bear in mind that there is always some risk involved but it will ensure that your corpus does not decrease in value day-by-day.
If you have entrepreneurial gene, here is the bonus tip to plan your retirement on your own terms.
You won't get rich renting out your time. You must own a stake in a business to earn your financial freedom. But a business stake is not easier to get, you have to take accountability and take risks. Renting out your time to someone can earn you money but not wealth (leaving some thoughts to ponder). Take your 2019 plunge to create wealth for yourself and for everyone around you.
A Debt trap is not a good thing. We can relate to the struggle to get out of it. It requires a conscious and focused effort of making a list, tracking your expenses, consolidating the debts and making changes in your spending so that you do not splurge more than your income.
Getting out of debt requires discipline. At multiple levels. You will need to be disciplined in your spending, disciplined in paying your bills on time and disciplined to follow through the steps outlined here.
Every debt has a string of charges involved starting with the interest on loan money, processing fees, pre-payment charges & so on. Not to mention the burden of maintaining a debt account, tracking the due dates and making the payment. Hence if you have multiple debts, make a list of all of them and sort in the increasing order of pending amount. Thereafter look at the top 1 or 2 debts to see if you can quickly close them in a few months by making more than required payments.
Multiple loans are difficult to track, just like multiple credit cards. And if you missed any one of the due dates, you will be slapped with severe late payment and finance charges + taxes. In order to avoid that, explore if you can consolidate your debts at one or two places. This applies more to items which are towards the bottom of the list created in step 1. You can either avail more loan from one of the sources to pay off the others or opt for outstanding balance transfer facility available for some financial institutions.
There is stiff competition in the loan market. Banks and NBFCs are trying to outbid each other in order to acquire more customers. There is always one or the other new schemes which can lower your interest rates. Keep an eye out to see if it can benefit you substantially. But also bear in mind the processing fees involved . Also dont do it too frequently or when the loan is nearing the end as it will lead to unnecessary botheration without significant financial benefit.
When you have multiple debts, it also means multiple due dates and bills. Failing to pay the EMI or minimum amount due can result in serious charges which can derail your recovery process. Make a list and ensure that you are never late for any payment due to negligence. Set reminders or use apps such as Finart to give you automatic due date reminders.
Whenever you have a positive difference between income and expenses, you may be tempted to use the full amount for paying your debt. This may not be completely wise. Always keep a certain amount of saving fund or an emergency fund which can be used in unforeseen circumstances. We recommend it to be at least 10% of your income. Use the remaining amount to prepay your debts.
There are many occasions when you may want to know your State bank of India (SBI) bank balance. For e.g you may want to make sure that you have sufficient balance to cater to your scheduled auto debits or someone might have deposited money in your account and you just want to make sure its credited in your account. The days are gone when you had to visit SBI branch or ATM to check SBI account balance, now with mobile phones everything (including account balance) is available on your tips.
SBI has been traditionally known to provide legacy systems and leaving the needs of digital savvy customers. unaddressed. But in recent year, SBI has been adopting latest and relevant tools to offer excellent customer service. SBI toll-free balance enquiry is one of the easiest and quickest methods to check your SBI account balance without visiting your SBI branch or ATM.
1. Give a missed call to 09223766666 from your mobile number which is registered for this service.
2. Send a SMS in following format to 09223766666 from your mobile number which is registered for this service.
SBI will send a SMS with account balance information to your registered mobile number.
ATM will display the account balance on screen and also provide a print option so you can take it for your record. You can also visit non-SBI or other bank' ATM service to check your account balance. But please note that RBI has limited the total number of free transactions per ATM/debit card. Balance enquiry is also counted as one transaction towards this limit. If you cross this monthly limit of free transactions, you will have to pay transaction charges. The number of transactions is inclusive of the ones you carry out at any ATM whether it is an SBI or a non-SBI bank ATM. This is one of the main reasons why you should do your balance enquiry online and reserve the ATM transactions for cash withdrawal only.
Often times, it is crucial to know how much balance is there in your account. This happens whenever you want to make any payment to someone or thinking of any new purchase. It is always helpful to check bank balance quickly & without juggling through the online banking websites.
Below are many simple ways to check your account balance easily for all major banks such as HDFC, ICICI, SBI, PNB, Axis Bank, Kotak Mahindra, IDBI & Bank of India etc.
This is the simplest and most effective method to know the account balance of all your bank accounts. This simple and powerful app works based on SMS delivered to your phone and reads the balance from last transaction. There is also an option to refresh balance if your last transaction is very old. Whats more it gives a live status of your account as soon as you make any activity so that you always stay updated of your balance. It also shows the pending credit limit of your credit cards in order to make that crucial purchase decision.
Login to online banking website of your bank. If you are not aware of your login ID or password, then visit the branch to get one. You will need to login within few days of receiving the temporary password or it will get expired. Change your password immediately upon first login. Online banking gives you option to make transactions as well as check your account balance. Be careful to not use the online banking on public computers and do not share your login-ID or password with anyone.
Most of the banks provide an easy method to know the bank balance, mini statement etc. by sending an SMS or giving a missed call from your registered mobile number. Use the following format for some of the leading banks.
Above are the simplest method to know your account balance from home. Otherwise you can also visit an ATM or visit your bank to know the latest status. You can also download the mobile app of your respective bank. But again, it is better to use a single & secure app such as Finart to know all your bank accounts balance and credit cards available limit.
Europe trip is always one of the most cherished dreams for many of us. We spend years dreaming about it, planning it and saving for it. And suddenly the stars align and everything falls in place for us to embark on that memorable journey.
Today we would share five important tips so that you can enjoy your upcoming Europe trip even more.
It is age-old, But it still remains a golden rule.
You should print it out and paste it around the house before you start your packing. Because we are tempted to ignore it so often. Try to cut down on things which you can & probably will buy on the trip. This includes — clothes, estimate your shopping destinations and plan one or two days of clothing from that shopping itself. Shoes — one for the cold and one for the comfort. Enough. Woolens — Check the weather forecast. You would probably be carrying one entire big suitcase for the whole trip, just for Jungfrau-josh, which is less than half a day event.
A heavy luggage will slow you down everywhere. And you will be forced to take taxis instead of wonderful public transport.
Food can be an issue, especially if you are a vegetarian. Also it is pricey. You will find good vegetarian options in McDonald's as well as at Subway. Look for them everywhere. Use google for help.
Chances are, you will start craving your home cuisine as soon as the second day itself. So carry some dry non-perishable versions such as theplas, khakras, MTR, Maggi which you can just microwave and eat. They are also very useful while you are taking long EuroRail journeys.
Visit a good neighborhood supermart in europe in the morning or while you are done with a day's attractions and buy packs of croissants — they are great for both adults & kids throughout the day.
This can sound opposite to conventional advise, But if you failed to pack very very light, which you will, then better not to cut corners on Taxis. That is, when you are moving bases. There is no point dragging 2 large size suitcases and 3 of their babies in a tram or metro. You will regret this even more when you will have to climb stairs with them in a suburban metro station where there are no escalators. It will only diminish your spirits, waste time and take out the fun.
For rest of the days when you are just with a handbag, take the public transport for sure.
Here is a prediction, even if you allocate equal days for different countries, chance are that you will remember and cherish Switzerland far more disproportionately. One does not believe this until it happens with her.
This is important as we did not find this advice anywhere. But it will be easy to get lost in all the expenses made at several places. Install a nice expense manager app such as FinArt.
While it will automatically record expenses wherever you get SMS from Bank (enable international roaming before going, it will be handy), there is a widget to easily enter the expenses. You can do it one or twice a day whenever you get time. It will make your life much easier once you get back. Especially true if you are travelling with a group of friends.
We know you are planning to take your SLR but plan for a good mobile camera with enough memory space (get an SD card). Mobile cam is handy and you can click pictures in a jiffy. You will end up capturing some nice moments. Plus side is that you can upload them on facebook/Instagram as your trip progresses.
Italy is a beautiful country. And this advice is true to almost anywhere But be especially mindful of your belongings while travelling in public transport in Italy. There are enough reported incidents of pick-pockets in Florence/Pisa stretch. Be especially careful of visa & passports. Carry photocopies with you in your handbag at all times.
We hope you come back with a treasured bag of memories to be cherished forever.
GDPR is a set of data privacy guidelines which came into force in European Union nations from May 2018. These guidelines were approved in 2016 and there was a 2 year transition period. The acronym GDPR stands for General Data Protection Regulation. It is a result of 4 years of labor by EU member states.
GDPR replaces an old data protection directive of 1995. Good part is that the across all 28 member states of EU, only one standard is to be met, thus simplifying the process. But the standard is very high and difficult to meet and administer.
There are now new ways of data collection & which could not be foreseen in a pre dot-com era and therefore not covered by the 1995 directive. GDPR aims to address this and regulates the exporting of personal data from EU to outside world.
The GDPR requirements will force the companies to change the way they process, store, and protect customers' personal data.
Portability: Personal data must also be portable from one company to another. Companies now must store people's information in commonly used formats (such as CSV), so that they can move a person's data to another organisation (free of cost) if the person requests it.
Right to be forgotten: Companies must erase personal data upon request. Users have right to demand that their data is deleted if it's no longer necessary to the purpose for which it was collected. They can also demand that their data is erased if they've withdrawn their consent for their data to be collected, or object to the way it is being processed.
Reasonable data protection & privacy: Companies must be able to provide a "reasonable" level of data protection and privacy to EU citizens. What the GDPR means by "reasonable" is not well defined, though.
Report Data Breaches: What could be a challenging requirement is that companies must report data breaches to supervisory authorities and individuals affected by a breach within 72 hours of when the breach was detected.
Performing impact assessments: It is intended to help in identifying vulnerabilities and how to address them.
Where do Indian Laws Stand?
Indian Information Technology Act, 2000 (IT Act) provides for general obligations for the collection, transfer and use of personal information.
The Privacy Rules set out various obligations including mandatory consent and disclosure requirements for data collection, usage, processing, storage and transfer, and requirements for appointment of a grievance officer. These Rules also require every company to have information security practices, programmes and policies which are in proportion to the information being protected.
Further Department of Electronics and Information Technology published in 2013, a set of rules for the regulation of data privacy and personal data protection including mandatory notification requirements (Cert-In Rules).
While India has laws in place which govern many aspects of data protection, breach and privacy, but the enforcement remains a question.
Will the Indian & Non-EU Consumers gain from GDPR?
Many companies directly or indirectly operate or deal with EU residents and thus they will be required to comply with GDPR. Indian companies having branch offices in European Union member states and also the companies which provide back-office data processing services to EU companies would be affected. Many big E-commerce, food tech and ride hailing companies in India are operating or planning to operate internationally.
As these companies will improve their privacy standards for compliance with GDPR, the Indian & non-EU residents would gain as a side effect.


This is a great MIX!
I can't believe I got to listen to these songs after all these years!!!
It brings so many great memories…thank you!!
All of the 80's mixes are awesome. Totally brings me back to the days of dancing all night with my friends. Thanks for the great flashback!!

Terminally-ill man marries fiancee in dream wedding donated entirely by well-wishers
Yahoo News UK 11 October 2019
Terminally-ill Myles Harrison married the love of his life Liz in a bucket-list wedding after friends and family donated the entire ceremony (Picture: SWNS)
A terminally-ill man married the love of his life in a dream bucket-list wedding after well wishers donated the entire ceremony.
Myles Harrison, 27, was diagnosed with a brain tumour at the age of 18 but his condition worsened and he was told by doctors that there was nothing more they could do to help him.
The news prompted Myles to pop the question to fiancee Liz, 29, in a ceremony that was entirely donated by well-wishers.
Myles proposed to Liz Harrison after doctors told him there was nothing more they could do to help him (Picture: SWNS)
The couple had no plans at all for their big day, with the focus remaining on Myles' ongoing treatment until wedding planner Louise Hedges stepped in and organised everything including the venue, food, drink, hair, make up, transport, photography - and even a honeymoon.
Within two weeks the wedding was planned and the happy couple became Mr and Mrs on August 11 at Castle Hill in Filleigh, Devon.

Myles said: "We're at the point where unfortunately there's nothing that can be done. I've always wanted to marry Liz, ever since we got together I knew she was the one.
"It was so great (at the hospice) that I decided it would be a great place to do it. I went down on one knee and proposed to Liz."
The couple married in a stunning ceremony Castle Hill in Filleigh, Devon, which was all donated by well-wishers (Picture: SWNS)
Louise, who publishes the North Devon Wedding Planner magazine, managed to organise for people to donate every element of the wedding free of charge.
Myles said: "How on earth they managed to sort everything out and do what they did in such a short period of time - they are amazing, amazing people.
"We can't believe what they've done and how much they've improved our lives."
Both Myles and Liz are big rugby fans and season ticket holders at Exeter Chiefs and their rugby heroes even recorded special video messages for them.
Liz said she was overwhelmed by people's generosity.
She said: "It is amazing what they have managed to arrange in such a short space of time, and at such a very difficult time for us.
"It is absolutely incredible and I want to say a huge thank you, particularly to Louise and everyone at North Devon Hospice."

Q: What type of M.2 SSD is this? I bought a Samsung M.2  SSD from an online shopping site. To my biggest surprise what I got is this picture.

It's just not M.2 interface. It's some kind of RAM or PCI slot like interface with I guess 64 pins on the edge of the PCB.
Does any such interface ever exists for M.2 SSDs? I strongly feel it's a serious manufacturing mistake unless there really exists any such interface ever?
Could someone please explain?
Thanks in advance.

Today I was thinking it would be extremely fun to have a guest post from a foreign writer on my blog. By 'foreign' I mean anyone who is not a citizen of the United States; I do not mean a person has to speak a language other than English. Most of the readers of this blog speak English as their primary language, so a post in English would actually be preferable. However, if you speak English as your second language and have a post that was originally written in a non-English lanaguage which you have translated into English, that would be welcome, too.
So bring it on, writers! Would you like to write a guest post for this blog? I would love to hear other writers talk about writing, or share a favorite post of yours from your very own writing blog.
Write about lessons you've learned in writing or from non-U.S. authors that you think U.S. writers would find new and exciting tips or intriguing facts.
Cover a favorite author of yours; review a favorite book or just gab on about how great they are!
Of course, you can obviously post about something else, too. As long as it's important to you, relevant to writing topics, and isn't too, too long of a post, I would love to post it on here – for FREE! Yes, FREE. If you're interesting, please comment on this post.
As you can see, I really need to diversify my reading list. Please, throw some recommendations at me.

PAPA ROACH Dare To Believe With New Track
Iconic rock band Papa Roach have shared their new rock single, Dying To Believe.
The song, produced by WZRD BLD aka Drew Fulk (Ice Nine Kills, Motionless In White, Bullet For My Valentine) is a call for human unity and harmony, despite any differences people have.
On their new single singer Jacoby Shaddix shares, "In the process of making this record, we always try to make music that means something to us, that moves us." He continues, "When I look out into the world right now a lot of people are divided. The beautiful thing about music is it's a unifier. I wanted to make a song that has some hope in it."

Q: Additivity of Rank of an Abelian group I am studying algebraic topology from Rotman and I needed to use rank of an (not necessarily free) Abelian group and in the exercises I faced a problem saying, given an exact sequence $0 \rightarrow A \rightarrow B\rightarrow C\rightarrow 0$ we have $rank A+ rank C=rank B$.
The definition of rank given in the book is that:
$\mathbf{Definition:}$ For an Abelian group G, we define $rank(G)=r$ if G has a free Abelian Subgroup F of rank $r$ such that $G/F$ is torsion.
Then it describes that taking a maximal independent subset (i.e., a subset $B \subset G$ such that $\sum m_bb=0$ With $m_b\in \Bbb Z$ and $m_b=0$ a.e. $\Rightarrow m_b=0$ $\forall b$), if we take the Subgroup generated by it (which is necessarily free) it will suffice as F.
The problem stated above comes with a hint that take a maximal independent subset of A and extend it to a maximal independent subset of B. I couldn't follow this. If I try to follow the method in vector spaces I am missing the fact that the kernel was free in that case. Any help in this would be appreciated.
I proved this statement using some different idea.
Firstly, the definition of rank is independent of choice of $F$ since if we apply tensoring by $\Bbb Q$ on the sequence $0\rightarrow F \rightarrow G \rightarrow G/F \rightarrow 0$ then we get using $\Bbb Q \otimes G/F=0 $ that, $dim_{\Bbb Q} (\Bbb Q \otimes F)=rank(F)=dim(\Bbb Q \otimes G)$ and by welldefinedness of rank of a free module we arrive at the welldefinedness of $rank(G)$.
So, tensoring the exact sequence $0 \rightarrow A \rightarrow B\rightarrow C\rightarrow 0$ by $\Bbb Q$ We get the result from the additivity of dimension of vector spaces.
I would like to know whether my approach is correct and also how can I proceed along the line of the hint given there.
(Edit: I have added a possible way out for my query. Now I am willing to know whether taking a Maximal independent subset S of A, pushing it to B and then extending the resulting set to a maximal independent subset R of B $\Rightarrow R-S $ is a maximal independent subset of C?)

A: Let $\{a_1,...,a_k\}$ be a maximal independent subset of $A$, let $\{b_1,...,b_r\}$ be a maximal independent subset of $B$, and let $f:A \hookrightarrow B$ and $g:B \twoheadrightarrow C$ be the homoprhisms in the exact sequence assumption.
The point is to consider the free groups $A' = \text{span} \{a_1,...,a_k\}$, $C' = \text{span} \{c_1,...,c_r\}$, and a free subgroup of $B$ that is equal to $f(A'')+ g^{-1}(C'')$ for some $A''\subset A$ and $C''\subset C$.
Lemma 1 The set $\{f(a_1),...,f(a_k)\}$ is linearly independent and the function $f':A' \rightarrow B'$ defined by $f' = f|_{A'}$ is an injective homorphism.
(Proof): Suppose it were not, then we would have $\sum_i n_if(a_i)=0$ for non-trivial $n_1,...,n_k$ but then $f(\sum_i n_ia_i)
 = 0$. Since $\{a_1,...,a_k\}$ is linearly independent we must have that $\sum_i n_ia_i \neq 0$ but this contradict the infectivity of $f$. The second statement is trivial since it inherits all of those properties from $f$. QED
Use the axiom of choice to construct a set of representatives $\{g^{-1}(c_1),...,g^{-1}(c_r)\}$; then we have the following:
Lemma 2 The set $\{g^{-1}(c_1),...,g^{-1}(c_r)\}$ is linearly independent, $\text{span} \{g^{-1}(c_1),...,g^{-1}(c_r)\}$ is a free group, and the function $g':g^{-1}(C') \rightarrow C'$ defined by $g' = g|_{g^{-1}(C')}$ is a surjective homorphism.
(Proof): Suppose it were not, then we would have $\sum_i n_ig^{-1}(c_i)=0$ for non-trivial $n_1,...,n_r$ but then $g(\sum_i n_ig^{-1}(c_i)) = g(g^{-1}(\sum_i n_ic_i)) = \sum_i n_ic_i
 = 0$, which contradicts the fact that $ \{c_1,...,c_r\}$ is linearly independent. The fact that $\{g^{-1}(c_1),...,g^{-1}(c_r)\}$ is linearly independent implies that $\text{span} \{g^{-1}(c_1),...,g^{-1}(c_r)\}$ is a free group. The last statement is trivial since it inherits all of those properties from $g$. QED
The last step is to consider the subgroup $C' = \text{span} \{f(a_1),...,f(a_k)\} + \text{span} \{g^{-1}(c_1),...,g^{-1}(c_r)\}$ which has the following nice property
Lemma 3 The sequence $0 \rightarrow A' \rightarrow B' \rightarrow C' \rightarrow 0 $ is exact. Furthermore we have that $\text{rank}(A') + \text{rank}(C') = \text{rank}(B') $.
(Proof): The exactness of $f',g'$ follows from the exactness of $f,g$ and the second statement is equivalent to the rank-nullity theorem after tensoring by $\mathbb{Q}$. In other words, apply rank-nullity to the vector spaces
\begin{equation} 0 \rightarrow \mathbb{Q} \otimes A' \rightarrow \mathbb{Q} \otimes B' \rightarrow \mathbb{Q} \otimes C' \rightarrow 0 . \end{equation} QED
The final step is to prove that:
Lemma 4 The set  $ \{f(a_1),...,f(a_k), g^{-1}(c_1),...,g^{-1}(c_r)\} $ is a maximally linearly independent subset of $B$.
(Proof): To prove that it is linearly independent notice that it is enough to consider the sums $\sum_in_i f(a_i) + \sum_jm_j g^{-1}(c_j)  $ where both $n_i$ and $m_j$ are non-trivial combinations since we already proved that there are individually linearly independant. If $ \{f(a_1),...,f(a_k), g^{-1}(c_1),...,g^{-1}(c_r)\} $ was not linearly independent then we would have that $\sum_in_i f(a_i) = \sum_jm_j g^{-1}(c_j)  $ and therefore, since $\text{image}(f') \subset \text{kernel} (g')$, we have that $0=g(\sum_in_i f(a_i)) = g(\sum_jm_j g^{-1}(c_j)) = \sum_j m_jc_j  $ which contradicts the linear independence of the $c_i$. To see that this linearly independent set cannot be made bigger notice that $ \{f(a_1),...,f(a_k), g^{-1}(c_1),...,g^{-1}(c_r),b\} $ was linearly independent then we would have that $\text{image}(f') \neq \text{kernel} (g')$ which would contradict the exactness of $f',g'$.
Corollary We have that $\text{rank}(A) + \text{rank}(C) = \text{rank}(B) $.
I wish you the best on your future mathematical voyages! Good luck! Bon Voyage!

A: Well along the line of the hints given, I could figure out one possible solution:
We can take A maximal independent set of A push it to B by the injection given. Further choose a maximal independent set of C and pull it back to B using the given surjection. The union of these two will be a maximal independent subset of B.
(Edit: For the edited part of my question, Let $f: A \rightarrow B$ and $g:B \rightarrow C$ be the given maps. Then suppose $R$ is a maximal independent subset of A then $f(R)$ is independent subset of B extending it to $S=f(R) \cup T$ a maximal independent subset of B.
Our claim is to show that $g(T)$ is maximal independent subset of C.
Suppose, $\sum (x_t.g(t))=0$ then $\sum x_t.t \in ker(g)=im(f)$ so, there is a $b \in A$ such that $f(b)= \sum(x_t.t)$ now by maximality of $R$, there is a $x>0$ Integer such that $xb=\sum(x_r.r)$, applying $f$ and by independence of $S$ We get that $g(T)$ is independent.
For maximality, let $c\in C-g(T)$ with $c=g(b)$
Then, there is $z>0$ integer such that $zb=\sum(x_r.f(r))+ \sum(x_t.t)$, applying, $g$ we get the desired result.)


MontyC returning here after MUFD took a little break... although things are not "normal" right now, they're a bit more stable, at least! So - back to some blogging, finally, thank goodness!
So what it is and what is it supposed to do? Caudalie describe this oil a "unique blend of six active and 100% natural oils which melts into skin to nourish the epidermis deep down, repair the skin barrier and soothe sensitive skin. Upon awakening the skin is smooth, restored and more resilient". And it really does all of the above. With bells on. This gorgeous oil is aimed squarely at those of us with dry to very dry skin (combination and oily peeps there are lots of other oils out there for you, this one ain't for you). It has soothed and nourished my skin to the max. It can be applied directly onto clean dry skin or after your serum, whichever you prefer (personally I apply face oils after my serum, especially in the winter). This is a rich yet soft-feeling dry oil, which melts deliciously into your skin, and if you're anything like me, you will wake up the following morning with lovely, soft, glowy skin.
With ingredients mainly comprising lots of natural (and mainly organic) oils - like grape seed oil, jojoba seed oil, sesame seed oil, sunflower seed oil, rose damascena flower oil, rosemary leaf, geranium, it's aromatherapy-in-a-bottle too - scent-wise, the fragrance is predominately one of a clean, warm rose scent but it's not an overpowering one and does wear down quickly (to be expected given the rose and geranium contents).
Caudalie recommend that you apply six drops in the evening, either alone or before your moisturiser, avoiding the eye area (as you'd expect - oils, they don't go there!). What I like to do is warm anywhere between four and eight drops (depending on how much I feel I need on a particular night) between my finger tips and then pat and massage the oil into my face and down onto my neck. And then release a happy sigh :-) If you feel you need (or just fancy) a moisturiser afterwards, fire ahead but there may not be any need if you feel the oil is more than enough (depending on how dry and/or knackered your skin is). Definitely a night-time treatment though, not one for the day I feel.
I bought mine at Arnotts in Dublin and paid €33 for 30ml. Although 30ml doesn't sound like a lot of product, believe me, I've been whacking on this oil very enthusiastically for weeks now and I've hardly made a dent in the bottle. I think this oil is good enough to go toe to toe with the best of them. If you've been drooling over the Sisley Black Rose oil (read my review of that product here) but perhaps it's either out of your budget or it's a lot more than you're comfortable paying for skincare, check out this one instead - it's just as beautiful, just as effective, and (like the SOS serum), unbelievably fantastic value for money.

Sandvik simulators to teach TAFE students
Sandvik's DS421-C cable bolter. Image: Sandvik Rock Technology.
A leading Victorian TAFE has acquired two advanced simulators for students to experience the operation of Sandvik drilling rigs at the Victorian Tunnelling Centre.
The CYBERMINE simulators are programmed to display the use of Sandvik's DS421-C cable bolting machine and Sandvik's DD420 two-boom hydraulic drill rig.
They were designed and delivered by ThoroughTec Simulation and will enhance the Holmesglen TAFE's training in mining and tunnelling.
Holmesglen's associate director of the Centre for Energy and Infrastructure, Ross Digby, said a range of scenarios would be replicated by the technology.
"The new simulators at Holmesglen will teach underground workers practical skills in a safe, controlled and highly realistic setting that reproduces a variety of site conditions and scenarios," Digby said.
ThoroughTec business development manager Joel Leatt-Hayter said the Sandvik machines were a good choice for young miners to get a feel for.
"The Sandvik DD420 drill rig is an immensely popular tunnelling drill rig used and proven throughout the world, while the Sandvik DS421-C is a rock reinforcement bolter for specialised cement grouted, cable bolt installations," Leatt-Hayter said.
"Both machines are extremely complex pieces of equipment requiring a high degree of proficiency to operate safely and efficiently."
The Victorian Tunnelling Centre is at Holmesglen's Drummond Street campus in the suburb of Chadstone, 15 kilometres south east of Melbourne, offering specialist training to workers in the construction of a variety of tunnels for rail, road and utilities.
The CYBERMINE simulators are capable of safely exposing students to a range of adverse events, explained Leatt-Hayter.
"As an example, operators can be exposed to jammed drill bits or even vehicle fires, which obviously would be difficult to safely replicate on the actual equipment," he said.
"It's vital that operators are accurate in positioning the rig and booms to ensure accurate patterns are drilled and optimal blasts achieved.
"Of equal importance is the correct application of feed pressure, rotation speeds and percussion to maximise work rate without compromising drill string life."

Melanie Macey
Progressive champion for Michigan's 7th District
Vote Melanie Macey for State Representative
I'm excited to announce that I'm running for State Representative in Michigan's newly-drawn 7th District, representing residents of Detroit, Ferndale, Pleasant Ridge, Royal Oak, and Royal Oak Township!
I have loved representing 60,000 Royal Oak neighbors over the last four years, and I am eager to take on the critical issues facing the 93,000 residents in the 7th district at the state level. In Lansing, I will fight for higher wages, strong and safe public education, an equitable justice system, and immediate action on climate change.
I will work tirelessly to defend our democracy and guarantee everyone can exercise their right to vote. And I will stand strong to protect a woman's right to choose in Michigan, so critically important now in the aftermath of the U.S. Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade.
I am looking forward to meeting as many residents as I can to learn their concerns so we can work to make a great place to live even better! Follow me on Facebook (see below) and consider volunteering or donating.

I was so pleased when I received the endorsement of the incomparable Oakland County Commissioner Charlie Cavell this spring, and I'm even more grateful now that I know it comes with some sweat equity! Many thanks to Charlie for knocking doors with us yesterday! I wish we had gotten a picture with the whole crew, but we didn't think to take it until the end when we were chatting back at Charlie's house. Charlie is a true progressive, and he works his butt off, so already I love that, but I think the true magic of Charlie is how he brings people into the conversation. Maybe it's from his social work background that he learned how to listen intently and then turn people's passion into action, empowering them to step up and do the work right alongside him. It's a whole movement, and Charlie is an empathetic leader we can all get behind. I'm not trying to drive votes; he's unopposed in the primary! I'm just letting you know about an excellent elected official in our midst.

This Independence Day hits a little different. We are less than two weeks from Roe v. Wade being overturned, leaving my daughters with fewer rights than I had. We just learned an unarmed Black man in Akron was shot over 60 times when fleeing a traffic stop. The January 6th hearings bring weekly doses of a deliberate effort to overturn our Democratic system. And, today, somebody with a gun turned an Independence Day parade into a tragedy outside Chicago. As we gather to celebrate America, it is easy to ask "What Is America?" Or, legitimately, "Why are we celebrating it?" I'm running for State Representative because my answer to those questions is the same. America is *us*, and we celebrate that messy *us* every day that we argue and cry and protest and hope and ACT so that we can fix our problems today on behalf of the children of tomorrow. Our history has been a constant struggle between those who want to expand equality and opportunity to others against those who want to limit it. Sometimes we make progress. Sometimes the progress is beaten back. We must always keep fighting to live up to those ideals. With the Supreme Court so central to our lives right now, I think it is appropriate to quote from the great Thurgood Marshall, in a speech given on Independence Day in 1992 — just six months before his death. "We cannot play ostrich. Democracy just cannot flourish amid fear. Liberty cannot bloom amid hate. Justice cannot take root amid rage. America must get to work. In the chill climate in which we live, we must go against the prevailing wind. We must dissent from the indifference. We must dissent from the apathy. We must dissent from the fear, the hatred and the mistrust. We must dissent from a nation that has buried its head in the sand, waiting in vain for the needs of its poor, its elderly, and its sick to disappear and just blow away. We must dissent from a government that has left its young without jobs, education or hope. We must dissent from the poverty of vision and the absence of moral leadership. We must dissent because America can do better, because America has no choice but to do better. The legal system can force open doors and sometimes even knock down walls. But it cannot build bridges. That job belongs to you and me. Afro and White, rich and poor, educated and illiterate, our fates are bound together. We can run from each other but we cannot escape each other. We will only attain freedom if we learn to appreciate what is different and muster the courage to discover what is fundamentally the same. America's diversity offers so much richness and opportunity. Take a chance, won't you? Knock down the fences that divide. Tear apart the walls that imprison. Reach out, freedom lies just on the other side. We should have liberty for all." www.naacpldf.org/press-release/thurgood-marshalls-stirring-acceptance-speech-after-receiving-the-… … See MoreSee Less

The largest collection of pre-Columbian south American gold is right here, in Bogotá. Come and enjoy the unbelievable Gold Museum and complete your experience with a fascinating walking tour in the colonial neighborhood La Candelaria.
The tour is 2.5-3hrs, the tour guide I can't t remember her name was very knowledgeable about the city and her English was also great. The descriptions of historical events and happening was clear, I could visualise what she was saying. She described the tour as an introduction to Bogotá but it was really so much more and really worth it, if you do nothing else in Bogotá and/or you are on a schedule. I highly recommend this tour. Really great tour and experience I was able to plan other tours based on the information she gave.
The gold museum was closed on the day we took the tour so we didn't see it as a part of this tour. instead, we explored the area with our guides, Alejandro and Peter. We visited de Botero Museum and explored the street art, plaza de Bolivar, streer market and saw the candy cane striped church, Our Lady of Carmen.Our guides were informative and gave us such a great insight into the area. We tried some wonderful food and tried the coca tea, too!
I would recommend this tour to families traveling with children. Our kids, ages 12 and 14 really enjoyed it.

Here are a few FAQ's that might explain some of the questions you might have.
Can fragrance change my mood?
Yes, it can! That is possibly one of the most amazing things of perfume. It has the ability to stimulate or calm us, encourage a good mood, shape positive memories as well as induce dreams.
Spray the perfume carefully on your clothes, it clings to material like glue. Be advised that perfume contains oil, of course, so be careful where on your clothes, and what type of material you spray it on. Scarves, jerseys, pants, tweed, blazers, stretch materials should all be fine. Remember to spray from a distance, especially if you don't know how the material will react.
Your hair holds scents just as good as material. Now you're thinking; 'Wouldn't the alcohol damage my hair?' The amount of alcohol is so minimal, damage, if any, would be minimal. Should you encounter a problem, refrain from doing it.
2) You just get used to it. You may not smell it, but others do.
3) Citrus Notes fades the fastest, Woody Notes tend to stay put longer.
4) Applying an unscented body lotion or vaseline, to the areas you plan on spraying, could help hold the scent.
Empty the last drops of your fragrance into an unscented body lotion. Using it together with your perfume will make it last longer.
Lightly mist your hair as it hold onto scent better than skin does.
Rub your skin with vaseline, then spritz, it should hold onto the scent longer.
Apply more fragrance, more often, in which case a travel size perfume is very handy!
Our absolute favourite, spray on you're clothes – of course, using your own discretion, keeping in mind the type of material etc.
Avoid spraying perfume on your neck, as contact with sunlight would age the skin.
Avoid rubbing your pulses together once applied to your skin, as this breaks up the molecules of the scent.
Keep your fragrance in a cool, dry, dark place like your handbag or closet as heat, light and humidity lessens the effectiveness of a scent.
Spray on your fragrance after a bath or shower. Your pores are open, capturing the scent, making it last longer.
Simple, apply your perfume more generously. Your biological make-up isn't something you can change, you can alter your behaviour though. Get in the habit of applying more perfume and or more often.
As with all advice, you need to use your own discretion. No one knows your situation better than you!
Why does it feel like my fragrance disappears?
It doesn't, don't worry. After constant stimulation, your senses tire and your sense of smell cuts off after a few minutes. As you can't escape the perfume you applied, you get used to it.

Ex-Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah Sparks Row After Comparing BJP Leaders With Hound Dogs
Congress leader and former Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah has stirred up a row after he compared BJP leaders to dogs. Speaking at an event in Mysore on Thursday, Siddaramaiah said that when he talks, "25 people from BJP start barking against me like Mudhol (hound) dogs". "But when they bark, only I have to speak, no one else from our party speaks," the veteran Congress leader was quoted by ANI as saying.
"Our people don't talk, and that's why we have distributed books from our office," he added.
Mudhol Hound or Caravan Hound is usually used by Karnataka villagers for the purpose of hunting or as guards.
The former CM's remarks came in the wake of the controversy in the state over the "saffronisation" of textbooks, with some sections objecting to the alleged replacing of a chapter on Bhagat Singh with an essay on a speech by RSS founder Keshav Baliram Hedgewar in the revised Kannada textbook for Class 10.
Subsequently, there were allegations about the omission of a chapter on Narayana Guru and several other prominent figures and their literary works. There have been demands by opposition Congress and some writers for sacking the textbook review committee chief Rohith Chakratirtha for allegedly "saffronising" school textbooks.
Siddaramaiah participated in a protest on Thursday called by the Karnataka Congress at the Legislative Assembly over the issue. Speaking to reporters, the Congress leader said, "The textbook has been revised by Rohith Chakrathirtha (head of the textbook revision committee), who is an orthodox RSS man. I hope the government will consider revising it, if not, we will go to the streets."
Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai has already made it clear that the government will not remove the lesson on Hedgewar. However, he said his government is open to suggestions on textbook-related issues.

The Potential Impacts of Brexit on Energy Efficient Scotland Funding
Antonios Katris, Karen Turner, Nicola McEwen, Fiona Munro, Paul Cairney, Aileen McHarg
Brexit, regardless of its final form, will affect the access that Scotland, and the UK as a whole, will have to EU funding sources for a number of actions, including the promotion of residential energy efficiency. In this work we explore how funding restrictions may affect the potential outcomes of the Energy Efficient Scotland (EES) programme. We focus on impacts on the amounts available to be offered as government grants and the availability of private loans. Our findings indicate that in order to achieve the goals of the programme it is key to try and maintain the originally planned level of funding. However, the options used to bridge any funding gaps need to be carefully considered, otherwise the benefits from EES could be significantly eroded. We also find that it is crucial for the overall success of EES to use any options available to ensure the continued availability of private loans.

Studying "Working Fathers": Comparing Fathers' and Mothers' Work-Family Conflict, Fit, and Adaptive Strategies in a Global High-Tech Company
E. Jeffrey Hill, Brigham Young University - ProvoFollow
Alan J. Hawkins
Vjollca Märtinson, Brigham Young University - Provo
Maria Ferris, IBM, Global Workforce Diversity
working mothers, maternity and paternity leaves, studies, research and development, men
Working fathers are underrepresented-conceptually and empirically-in work-family research. Using a global corporate sample of working fathers from 48 countries (N = 7,692), this study compares working fathers to working mothers on key work-family variables as suggested by Voydanoff's (2002) application of ecological systems theory. It examines the direction and the path of the predictors of work-family fit and whether a scarcity or expansion model better explains these results. Finally, it considers what work-family adaptive strategies may affect those relationships. Although fathers consistently reported less family-to-work conflict than mothers, they reported equal amounts of work-to-family conflict. That is, fathers struggled as much as mothers to keep work from draining their energies at home. Similarly, though fathers were less likely than mothers to have used most corporate programs to help find harmony between work and family life, they frequently chose options that provided flexibility in when and where work was done. Overall use of any work-family programs by fathers, including the specific use of flexi-time and flexi-place, were found to be work-family adaptive strategies that predicted greater work-family fit. Having a spouse as the primary caregiver did not predict greater work-family fit for working fathers, but it did for working mothers. Curiously, having greater responsibility for childcare predicted greater work-family fit for fathers but less work-family fit for mothers. These findings have implications for guiding further development of work-family research and programs that include fathers.

World Investment Report: Bangladesh second largest FDI recipient in South Asia
Bangladesh registered a record level of foreign direct investment (FDI) inflow in 2018, topping the list in South Asia. In 2018, Bangladesh reached the highest ever level in the country's history at $3.61 billion, according to World Investment Report 2019 by United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). The report said FDI in Bangladesh went up by 67.94% in 2018 compared to $2.15 billion in 2017. The Netherlands stood as the second largest investor with of $0.69 billion, and the United Kingdom was the third highest investor with $0.37 billion.
Bangladesh eyes to reduce poverty rate by 10% in four years
The new budget expects the poverty rate be brought down by 10% in the next four years through a coordinated approach engaging the private sector to supplement the government's anti-poverty initiatives. According to experts, a target has been set to take the rate down to 12.30% and the extreme poverty rate to 4.50% by 2023-24. Over the span of last ten years, the policies of HPM Sheikh Hasina has overseen the menace of poverty reduce to around 20%, changing the fortunes over millions of lives.
Persuade Myanmar to take back Rohingyas: HPM urges China
HPM Sheikh Hasina urged China to persuade Myanmar to take back their over one million Rohingya nationals from Bangladesh. She made the request when she had a meeting with Chinese Ambassador to Bangladesh Zhang Zuo at her office. According to media reports, the Premier once again expressed her firm stance over the Rohingya issue, saying that the displaced people have to go back to their homeland. In a related development, she also said Bangladesh's security and stability may be hampered if the Rohingya refugees cannot be repatriated to Myanmar soon. She also slammed Myanmar for making excuses for delaying repatriation of the refugees though it signed three pacts with Bangladesh, pledging to complete the repatriation process within two years.
Govt to create 150 million jobs in 5 years
The government has taken an initiative to create 150 million jobs in the next five years to ensure employment for every eligible youth in the country. As part of the plan, as many as 100 economic zones, which were under construction across the country, would create immense opportunities for jobseekers. Such plans stand out as a testament to the government's renewed commitment to transform the course of national progress, as envisaged by the Honourable Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. In addition to this, a new horizon has been opened up for the countrymen to work abroad.
Awami League celebrates 70th founding anniversary
Bangladesh Awami League, under the prudent leadership of HPM Sheikh Hasina, has celebrated its 70th founding anniversary with the target to turn the country into a peaceful one by establishing good governance and balanced development. In its 70-year-long glorious history, the party gave leadership in the 1952 Language Movement and the 1971 War of Liberation, and fought successfully against exploitation, disparity and violation of basic human rights with a massive public support.
BIDA, BEZA open One Stop Service
Two major investment facilitating organizations, Bangladesh Investment Development Authority (BIDA) and Bangladesh Economic Zones Authority (BEZA) have kicked off One Stop Service (OSS) to entertain queries of the entrepreneurs. As the government is widely focusing on attracting huge volume of investment — both foreign direct investment and local investment — the full operation of OSS would help the investors start business in Bangladesh. Top officials of the government agencies, according to media reports, expressed hope that OSS would ease the difficulties of entrepreneurs and would ultimately help improve the ease of doing business index of Bangladesh.
Incentive to boost remittance transfer thru banks
The government's move to provide cash incentive on remittance transactions through the legal channel will lead a good amount of capital injection into the banking sector which has been experiencing capital shortfall in recent times, economists opined. Besides, the move has also created enthusiasm among the expatriates, a major contributor to the country's foreign exchange reserve of $31.3 billion. In the July-April period of the current fiscal year, Bangladeshi expatriates sent $13.30 billion, which was 10% higher than the same period of the previous fiscal year, according to central bank data.

Atoms, elements and compounds
In this chapter you will learn:
What are Atoms?
What are Elements?
What are Compounds?
All substances are made up of atoms.
Atoms are the smallest part of an element that can exist.
Atoms themselves are made from three types of small particles, called: protons, neutrons and electrons.
Nucleus is in the center of the atom and contains protons and neutrons. The electrons move around the nucleus in orbits called shells.
An element is a substance containing one type of atoms.
Each element has its own chemical symbol. A chemical symbol contains one or two letters and starts with a capital letter. For example, the symbol "O" represents an atom of oxygen, and "Na" represents an atom of sodium.
There are more than 100 different elements. The elements are listed in the periodic table.
The number of protons in an atom of element is called the atomic number. Atoms contain equal numbers of protons and electrons.
Atomic numbers are used in Periodic Table to arrange the elements.
Compound contains two or more elements that are chemically combined. Compounds are formed from elements by chemical reactions.
Chemical reactions always involve the formation of one or more new substances. Most chemical reactions involve a detectable energy change. Compounds have different properties from the elements they are made from.
It is too hard to split up a compound into its elements.
Compounds can be spilt up into elements by chemical reactions.
