When President Oscar Arias' administration promised to crack down on unlicensed taxi drivers on Feb. 5, Michael Sosa, from the National Federation of Taxi Drivers, was not convinced. "I guess we'll see you next month" were his parting words to the press.
It seems Sosa was right.
Hundreds of taxistas (taxi drivers) went on strike Monday at noon, blocking traffic along several major streets, many remaining parked outside Casa Presidencial throughout the day to put pressure on the government to act on its promise to limit the number of motorists operating as taxis outside Costa Rica's red fleet taxi system.
The agreement, signed by Presidency Minister Rodrigo Arias, Transport and Public Works Minister Karla González and leaders from both the porteadores (lawful car-service business) and the traditional red taxi sectors, was supposed to prohibit newly registered porteadores. The law allowed the existing porteadores to continue operating.
"The government will never do anything unless they see violence," he said. Oviedo said that most taxistas don't want the porteadores to be functioning at all, and they have arranged a meeting for licensed taxi drivers for April 1. A group of lawyers will be present to draw up a new proposal that would be presented to the Legislative Assembly.
But another strike isn't likely to be organized for that date, according to Oviedo.


If you ask me, borbets are german wheels so therefor borbet would be best for german cars. Since your Civic HB by Honda is by a Japanese manufacter , go w/ japanese brand wheels. I have seem Civic roaming around my city w/ SpeedStarRacing "SSR" GP0 15" 16" & some w/ 17"inch. SSR GP0 are made forge and they only come in a 3piece system, they can cost a pretty penny,"nothing more than $2500. w/ tires for 17s".Other than SSR, they are many other japanese wheels company out there like Racing Hart, Volk Racing"Rays Wheels", Mugen"Honda Specialist",Zaptor,Milano ect...... my honest opinion is that DON'T GO W/ 14" WHEELS, they re TOO small and 3piece japanese wheels are always better for japanese cars. If you have any question feel free to ask me, I may not work in a wheel warehouse but I had gone though 5 different set of wheels. Oh and Borbet are a good brand of wheels but its something I would put on a Volkswagon GTi.

Vietnam's Buddhist community last week celebrated the annual Vu Lan festival to honor parents and ancestors. A time to remember the deceased as well as living parents and grandparents, the occasion is aalso a and a reminder to honor one's parents for the good deeds they have performed on behalf of their children, and to remember one's responsibilities as children. In the capital Hanoi, thousands of people flocked to Phuc Khanh Pagoda to mark the occasion in defiance of the rainy weather, filling the small pagoda and lining the surrounding streets.
Vu Lan is celebrated on the 15th day of the 7th month of the lunar calendar, which this year fell on 17 August. The festival is also known as Vietnamese Mother's Day and Trung Nguyen, and is also believed to be the day on which lost souls search for mercy and return to their former homes. The second-largest festival in the Vietnamese calendar after Tết Nguyên Đán, the Vietnamese New Year, Vu Lan is celebrated throughout the country. In addition to visiting temples and making offerings to monks, people engage in compassionate activities such as releasing birds and fish back into the wild, and offering gifts and flowers to their parents as an expression of appreciation and gratitude.
Vu Lan is the Vietnamese version of the Chinese Zhong Yuan Jie or Yu Lan Jie festival, which is celebrated in the same month of the lunar calendar. The festival's Sanskrit name, Ullambana originates in the Mahayana Ullambana Sutra, which consists of a discourse by Shakyamuni Buddha to Maudgalyayana, one of his two chief disciples, about saving his mother from suffering after death. According to the story related in the sutra, Maudgalyayana had a vision in which he saw his mother reborn as a hungry ghost due to her evil actions while alive. The Buddha advised Maudgalyayana to organize an assembly of monks to make offerings for the benefit of his deceased mother. The festival is widely observed in many countries in which Mahayana Buddhism is practiced. In addition to honoring one's parents and ancestors, the main purpose of the festival is to make offerings to the sangha and to pray for the liberation of the deceased who have been reborn into undesirable states.

Speaking for the Trees A Powerful Coalition Works to Protect Armenian Forests
Starre Vartan December 16, 2005
Decades of oppressive, one-party rule and economic embargoes have left Armenia overwhelmingly poor and desperate. And poverty has led to destruction of the very natural resources that are the country's most precious heritage.

A mostly mountainous and fiercely nationalistic nation bordering Turkey to the east, the Caspian Sea to the west, Iran to the south and Georgia to the north, Armenia is experiencing the growing pains of developing countries trying to pursue a better life, while preserving social customs and a ruggedly beautiful environment.
Some of the biggest environmental problems in Armenia (including rampant deforestation and a reopened Chernobyl-era nuclear power plant) have to do with providing electricity and heat to people who've often had to do without.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, Armenia sought its full independence in a war with Azerbaijan. From 1991 to 1994 economic blockades prevented heating oil from coming into the country. "That resulted in massive burning of wood, from furniture to books to trees in forests and parks," explains Jeff Masarjian, executive director of the nonprofit Armenia Tree Project, founded in 1994. "With little if any insulation in houses, and no alternative sources of fuel for heat and cooking, the people had little choice. Poverty is the greatest enemy of the forest."
Although heating oil is now available, deforestation remains an ongoing problem because firewood is often the more affordable choice. "If the deforestation isn't reversed immediately, the World Bank estimates that all the forest could be gone in 20 to 50 years," says Masarjian. "Eighty percent of Armenia could turn to desert. Once it's lost to desert it's lost forever. Landslides, loss of habitat, and the disappearance of topsoil are the multiplying effects of deforestation."
Deforestation also increases flooding, reduces soil fertility and dries local microclimates, reducing the water supply. Armenia was once 25 percent forested, but now only eight percent of the land is covered.
In 2005, Armenian cities have a fairly reliable source of natural gas to heat homes, so the reforestation effort has begun in earnest. The Armenia-based nonprofit group Armenian Forests, founded in 2003, works with local communities to set up sustainable forest management practices and encourages alternatives to live Christmas trees.
The Armenia Tree Project is working to counteract both poverty and deforestation by giving out seeds to farmers who work plots of land as small as 10 feet by 10 feet. From a plot that size, 1,000 to 1,500 seedlings are produced in six to 18 months, depending on the type of tree.
The Armenia Tree Project buys the seedlings back for less than it would cost from a commercial operation, and the money earned can double the average Armenian's income (of about $280 per month for villagers, according to a 2003 survey). Along with the tree-raising venture, an environmental education program aimed at schoolchildren teaches the next generation how important trees are to Armenia's future, and how environmental health will affect both their physical and economic well-being.
Despite the best efforts of these projects, pressure on the remaining trees remains. Last June, the Shikahogh nature reserve—one of three large protected forest areas in Armenia—was threatened by a government road-building plan. The road would have cut right through the reserve, and would have meant the loss of 15,000 to 20,000 trees in an ecologically valuable area that is protected on three sides from the harsh winds that make much of Armenia cold and dry. In the Shikahogh, moisture from the Caspian Sea creates a microclimate where some 1,100 flowering species of plants grow. It is also one of the last refuges of the endangered Near Eastern leopard.
"The lower slopes of Shikahogh are a diverse ecosystem," says Karen Manvelyan, director of the World Wildlife Fund-Armenia. "Native bushes, wild mushrooms and wildlife live on the slopes. Insects feed on the bushes, and animals eat the insects or other small prey. All this could be lost."
Manvelyan calls the Mtnadzor Forest, which covers half of Shikahogh, "a monument of natural heritage." After intense pressure, including some from Armenians in the U.S., the government promised to reroute the road around the nature reserve. It was a victory for 40 local groups, WWF, Armenian Forests and the Armenia Tree Project. The results of this coup for the trees should not be underestimated in a country that's just learning about self-government.
"In this post-Soviet state, people feel disenfranchised and alienated from their government," says Masarjian. "Many feel that the government is going to do whatever it wants, so why bother to criticize it? This was a win for both the environment and for democracy."
"The government now understands there is a real and unified environmental movement in Armenia," says Susan Yacubian Klein, president of the Armenia Tree Project. "The main result—and it is an exciting one to witness—is the workings of a civil society from the grassroots level up."

GARMIN WEARABLE TECH REVIEW
Garmin Fenix 6S review
Pint-sized sports tracking powerhouse
By James Stables @stablesjames
By James Stables
@stablesjames
The Garmin Fenix range features nearly 20 versions – and the Fenix 6S is the smallest of the lot.
While a chunky build is synonymous with the Garmin Fenix, the Fenix 6S shrinks everything down into a more wearable package.
It's certainly the best Garmin Fenix for women and equally ideal for anyone who feels who the larger case size of Fenix watches is too bulky on the wrist.
But is the Fenix 6S still a worthy sports watch and are there any sacrifices made to enable this smaller build? Let's find out.
Price when reviewed:$599.99 Check price
Garmin Fenix 6S key features:
42mm case size
240 x 240 pixel
Six data fields
20mm strap
9 days smartwatch
25 hours GPS
50 hours Max Battery tracking
Pulse Ox, altimeter, barometer, compass
Heart rate, VO2 Max
TOPO mapping
Fenix 6 models explained
Left to right: Fenix 6X Pro Solar, Fenix 6S, Fenix 6 Pro
The Garmin Fenix 6 comes in multiple flavors and price points, so we'll just break them down here first.
Garmin Fenix 6/Pro – The standard 47mm version, adds music, Wi-Fi, maps – $599/$699
Garmin Fenix 6S/Pro – A smaller 42mm case with slightly lower battery life, adds music, Wi-Fi, maps – $599/$699
Garmin Fenix 6X– Bigger screen, slightly better battery, music, Wi-Fi, maps as standard – $749
Garmin Fenix 6X Pro Solar – Solar panels for extra battery life, music, Wi-Fi, maps as standard – $1149
The Fenix 6S comes with a 42mm case size, as opposed to the 47mm of the standard Fenix 6, and 51mm for the Fenix 6X Sapphire.
That's a massive downsizing in wrist real estate. It's got a 1.2-inch transflective display with a 240 x 240 pixel resolution. It's a lower pixel count than the larger watches, but the same general quality.
It's the same screen found across most Garmin sports watches, and let's make no bones about it, is dull, lifeless and in some lights requires you to manually activate back lighting with the top-left button. However, there is a welcome wrist-raise backlighting.
However, it's extremely power efficient and always-on and this sacrifice in aesthetics enables some of the Fenix's best features.
The Fenix 6S weighs 61g with the strap, lighter than a standard Fenix 6 which is 83g. A significant saving.
A nod to its more female-friendly aesthetics, there's a thin colour coded bezel which offers a bit more class than the standard Fenix. We got a fetching black with a gold version, but there's also powder grey and gold and straight black. They actually look great, which is so rare for a sports watch.
Elsewhere it's all the same as a standard Fenix. There's no touchscreen, instead there's the five-button array which works just the same as the rest of the Fenix devices. It's generally pretty easy to use – although the huge array of options and customisation the Fenix offers is more often than not hidden behind a very opaque menu system. Garmin clearly knows this, and new users will get irritating "tips" displayed on the watch.
You get a serious amount of sensor tech built into the Fenix 6S, which is a large part of that punchy price tag.
Optical heart rate is a given, but it also features the Pulse Ox sensor, which can track blood oxygen. This really comes into its own for sleep data, which will show respiration when you're in bed. You need to turn this on as it will affect battery life.
There's an altimeter, barometer and compass, which will offer elevation and climbing data during a host of activities including skiing, climbing and hiking.
When ascending this will enable the ClimbPro feature which will show you the details including distance, time and heart rate. You can also pre-load climbs and ascents to pre-plan them.
Sports tracking
While the Garmin Fenix 6S has shrunk in size, the amount of sports tracked hasn't.
And unlike options like the Vivoactive 4 which has a large sports tracking selection, it's the detail you get and level of analytics which makes the Fenix 6 the best.
You get running (trail, indoor, outdoor, treadmill), biking (indoor, outdoor, MTB), pool and open swimming, climbing, skiing and snowboarding of all types, triathlon, strength, SUP, rowing, kayaking, golf, hiking, yoga and even more via the Connect IQ platform of apps.
And the analytics is insane. Running offers top notch dynamics and VO2 Max analysis, including Training Effect, Training Status, HRV, stress, Body Battery, recovery and even recommendations on the types of workouts missing in your weekly plan.
This is some of our favourite data, and a huge reason to invest in the Fenix 6. As runners we're addicted to the Training Effect and Training Status data, which is a great way too evaluate sessions.
The Stress Score and Body Battery have also proved useful in assessing readiness for training – and in some quite hectic periods of training sessions have proved fairly accurate in highlighting fatigue.
You can get equivalent data from the Forerunner 945 - although that's limited to the key triathlon sports. You will also find many of the VO2 Max and recovery stats on the Forerunner 245 and 645 – but again, not the full gamut.
The VO2 Max data you find on Fenix 6 watches comes from Firstbeat and they're one of the best in the business in tapping into heart rate variability data and crunching the numbers to analyse recovery and training effect.
Back with the Fenix 3 we put a series of watches up against a laboratory VO2 Max test and found that its data was closest to the lab result.
It's important to note, however, that VO2 Max and all the lovely data that's produced from it is very much based around running. You won't get the same insights from hiking, or even busting big functional fitness or CrossFit workouts in the gym. It has to be an outdoor run with GPS, so if you're not a runner, you're going to be missing out on a lot of this juicy data.
Fenix 6S running and trekking
There's no difference in the running tracking – or any sports from that matter – from the main Fenix 6. It's one of the best running watches on the market. You can have up to six pages of data to cycle through - all set up from the watch itself.
Datas includes pace, distance time information. – but also lap data, cadence, heart rate, zones and more. It's a top running experience, but no different from top-end Forerunners as we've already mentioned.
We found GPS accuracy to be top notch across a range of tests and certified races.
The Fenix 6S also has the PacePro feature found on the other Fenix 6 watches – and now on lower devices like the Forerunner 945 and even 245. This enables you to pace runs based on GPS data you download from the Garmin Connect app, even taking into account split times on hills. It's not a perfect system – and you can read our full testing separately.
When trekking you also get the TOPO maps and the compass, to help navigate when you're out in the wild. More on those below. You can also swap between power modes mid-hike, so if you're getting low on battery you can put it into the gentler UltraTrac mode.
Fenix 6S mapping
The Fenix 6S also features the same TOPO mapping – and while it's a nice feature to have, we still have reservations about its usefulness and usability.
In most workouts (running, trekking etc) you can cycle through the menus to a map screen. You can see what's around you, road, landmarks and more. There's also a feature that shows points of interest.
The mapping isn't really at a level of detail you need for proper trekking and shows nothing in the way of contours of the land – or anything short of major trails. A lot of the time you just see yourself in white space – although the compass works to show your heading, which can be useful if you go off piste.
Landmarks are quite neat, and you can pan/zoom using the buttons, although this really is quite a faff and the small screen means that by the time you've zoomed out to see something (anything) useful, it's too small to work with.
The feature does get more useful if you add GPX data to follow waypoints on a run or hike, and the extra data from the TOPO helps put your run in context with placements of rivers, woods and the like. It's not really good enough to go navigating your way around the wilderness without a proper map, however.
Fenix 6S heart rate accuracy
The Fenix 6S uses the same Elevate sensor found on Garmin's watches – and predictably, came out with the same results.
In short, if you're a steady runner then you're likely to be happy with the accuracy of the wrist-based HR. We found good results versus a chest strap across runs of all distances.
However, if you're into HIIT sessions, you're going to run into problems.
We were actually a little surprised by the performance of the Fenix 6S in a track HIIT running session, and found the sensor to be well behind the chest strap – coming out with some seriously squiffy data.
And unsurprisingly, the data was almost exactly the same as the Garmin Venu – which uses the same sensor.
As you can see from the data below, the chest strap intervals are fully formed, while many of the latter intervals from the Fenix 6S don't come close to being fully tracked, with heart rate peaks missing the absolute top end, but also recovery not properly tracked between bursts.
There's a few takeaways here. First is what we always say: optical data is fine if you're looking for a guide of your performance and your exercise – be it running, cycling, skiing etc – is generally steady.
If you're really focused on data – or you're doing HIIT and want accurate HR results – use a chest strap. The Fenix 6S is compatible with ANT+ sensors.
This isn't a Garmin problem, it's the same for any optical sensor on the market and it's not going to change anytime soon.
It's also interesting that the accuracy of the Garmin Fenix 6S, one of the most expensive sports watches around, is the same as much lower devices in Garmin's range. Pick up a Forerunner 45 and you won't get more accurate data.
Fenix 6S battery life
The Fenix 6S's reduced case size does lead to one major difference over its bigger brothers – battery life. There is quite a large pay-off in terms of longevity from opting for the 42mm device.
The quoted battery life is 9 days as a smartwatch – with up to 25 hours of GPS tracking. That's down from 14 days and 36 hours from a 47mm Garmin Fenix 6.
One of the big differences in the Garmin Fenix 6 over the Fenix 5 is power management, and this has been streamlined.
Max Battery mode (the new name for Garmin UltraTrac) ups tracking to 50 hours on the Fenix 6S, but reduces GPS accuracy and should only be used for long hikes or ultra marathon distances. It will also disable the heart rate monitor.
Jacket mode keeps everything live but turns off heart rate and is good for winter sports where you might have the watch over the top of your coat. It tends to offer around 10% extra battery life.
You can access these power modes by starting an activity and bringing up the menu by pressing and holding the UP MENU button at 9 o'clock. If you choose Power Mode you can choose Normal, Max Battery and Jacket Mode – and get an estimate of the GPS time you'll get within that mode.
If you're not pushing the limits of endurance then we believe the Fenix 6S more than makes up for the battery life sacrifice with its reduced bulk. It's much more wearable, and will suit more wrists.
Fitness tracking and smartwatch features
As a fitness tracker, you're getting basic step counting, sleep monitoring and all-day stress tracking. On top of that, you've got Garmin fitness tracker staples like its Move Bar, Body Battery energy monitor and adaptive auto step goals to offer more motivation.
From within the watch settings you have the ability to view additional fitness tracking data including Body Battery, calories, floors climbed and stress.
It's probably the most detailed fitness tracking experience out there and more geared to sports lovers than, say, Fitbit or Apple. If you're an active person then step counts might mean very little to you, so it's nice than Garmin's Fenix fitness tracking goes beyond the basics.
The sleep tracking experience is also very detailed and can use the Pulse Ox feature to monitor your breathing, as well as heart rate in deep, light and REM sleep stages. It's one of the most data rich sleep tracking systems we've used – but there's not much analysis or actionable/understandable data.
You've also got Garmin Pay and the Connect IQ store. Apps and watch faces can be found and downloaded from Garmin's Connect IQ store.
You also get call alerts and notifications to the wrist. There's not that much screen space for reading messages but at least you won't miss anything.
However, you don't get granular detail over the apps on your smartphone that are allowed to buzz your Fenix.
You can choose no notifications, all notifications or just calls and texts. We chose the latter after getting fed up of the watch buzzing away for every email, but WhatsApp doesn't count in this mix, so it's a bit flawed.
Fenix 6S vs 6S Pro
There are some extra features of the Fenix 6S that you'll only unlock if you opt for the Fenix 6S Pro version.
The main one is music playback. You get room for a whopping 2000 songs, including support for offline synced Spotify playlists (if you have a Premium account). Deezer and iHeartRadio is also supported.
It's not the most user friendly set up - but fairly easy to use and navigate, and good if you want to leave your phone at home. GPS and music battery life sits at 6 hours - which is fairly short.
Garmin Fenix 6S
We've always loved the Fenix range – and the Fenix 6 offers so much data. But the Fenix 6S might just be our favourite watch of the lot. It offers all the great breadth of data, features and sports tracking into a more wearable package. It's much more female-friendly, more accessible and actually stands up to all-day wear – and it's cheaper too. Battery life is the main sacrifice – but it's still a top performer with the amount of features on offer.

Davis Payne
King City, ON, CAN
Weight 6 ft 1 in (1.85 m)
Played for Boston Bruins
Davis Payne (born September 24, 1970 in King City, Ontario) is a retired Canadian ice hockey winger who played in the National Hockey League for the Boston Bruins and is currently the interim head coach of the St. Louis Blues.
2 Coaching career
2.1 ECHL: Pee Dee and Alaska
2.2 AHL: Peoria Rivermen
2.3 NHL: St. Louis Blues
Payne was drafted 140th overall by the Edmonton Oilers in the 1989 NHL Entry Draft. He turned pro in 1992 and joined the Greensboro Monarchs of the East Coast Hockey League. He then had spells in the International Hockey League with the Phoenix Roadrunners and the American Hockey League with the Rochester Americans before returning to the Monarchs for a second spell. After playing two games with the Providence Bruins, Payne signed with the Boston Bruins. While spending most of his time playing in Providence, he managed to play 22 games for Boston over two seasons, scoring an assist while collecting 14 penalty minutes. He moved to the San Antonio Dragons before returning to the ECHL to spend his final two seasons with the Greenville Grrrowl.

In an earlier post, we asked a question. "If cloud computing is about feeding computing capability to where you are, why do we still need personal computers to use cloud computing?". Sounds like double investment.. right?
Yes. It is true that we are in a transition phase to the new technology of cloud computing. There are devices available in the market today that allow us to use cloud services at a more affordable price point. We saw in a earlier post that cloud computing is a two way interactive process. So the new device should have a display surface and ways of sending input to the cloud software.
For example, take a cloud software like facebook. Most of the time, we scroll through home or profile pages, click on notifications and frequently write comments, status lines or notes using a web browser. If we have a device that can just run the web browser and provide the capability to interact with that browser, such a device will need much less computing power. This device does not need to store anything in it (except your login credentials). Facebook stores all our data in the cloud. The storage needed in the device is therefore very low.
Welcome to the world of pads. The Apple iPad is a great example. There are many more pads that are coming into the market after iPad's roaring success. The pad has a touch sensitive display surface and a virtual on-screen software keyboard which you can tap on. Instead of using a mouse, you just use your fingers directly on the screen to touch, tap, scroll, and zoom. The pad is designed to take advantage of the cloud. The pad is available at a lower price point than a laptop computer. With increasing demand and competition, the price point will only drop further. With reducing demand for the personal computers, they will become more expensive. Cloud software will be available at fractional price points relative to software that is required for personal computers. The model of building software that needs to be replicated on multiple personal computers for individual consumption will die and the personal computer will die along with it or morph into something else.
The world however has die hards who will continue to be wedded to obselete technologies. I still see people continuing to use VCRs, cassette tape recorders, and sometimes even valve radios. These devices have already qualified to be artifacts in a technology museum. The total cost of ownership of such an obselete device will keep increasing. Only the rich and the technically capable can afford to have personal computers in about 10 years from now.

The Sixteen Arhats (Chinese: 十六羅漢, pinyin: Shíliù Luóhàn, Rōmaji: Jūroku Rakan; Tibetan: གནས་བརྟན་བཅུ་དྲུག, "Neten Chudrug") are a group of legendary Arhats in Buddhism. The grouping of sixteen Arhats was brought to China, and later to Tibet, from India. In China, an expanded group of Eighteen Arhats later became much more popular, but worship of the sixteen Arhats still continues to the present day in China, Japan and Tibet. In Japan sixteen Arhats are particularly popular in Zen Buddhism, where they are treated as examples of behaviour. In Tibet, the sixteen Arhats, also known as sixteen sthaviras ('elders') are the subject of a liturgical practice associated with the festival of the Buddha's birth, composed by the Kashmiri teacher Shakyahribhadra (1127-1225). They are also well represented in Tibetan art.

The communications revolution has led to important transformations in people (Adell, 1997). In this new age, the importance lies on human capital, in the way the human being captures and verifies information, in their ability for getting the information and transform it into knowledge (Cordeiro, 1998; Consejo Pontificio para las Comunicaciones Sociales, 2002). The impact of this revolution has permeated various spheres, including the education sphere and has brought both positive and negative incidences. Among the positive ones, it is important to highlight a greater coverage, new models of teaching-learning, and more flexibility, all these features contribute to the universalization of education. Unfortunately, the cyberspace in the educational process has generated deep changes in behavior of students and teachers, in their habits and values, and not all of these changes have been beneficial. Some behaviors that undermine ethics have become popular, being the plagiarism one of them. The aim of this paper is to analyze the university plagiarism problem. We present a review of the regulations and laws on copyright and we make an analysis on the impact of plagiarism. Finally, we propose a series of actions that universities can implement to counteract this problem.

For 2019, hero pieces for the Hamilton Jazzmaster have been released in the shape of brand-new automatic chronographs.
The watches run on the H-21 automatic chronograph movement with a date function and a 60-hour power reserve, it's a movement based on the famed ETA 7750 Valjoux movement.
The watches are in stainless steel with sapphire crystal atop white, anthracite and blue sunray dials, which are distinctive for their depth, using contrasting shine to distinguish between the main dial and the chronograph counters.
Completing the look are camel, gray and brown leather straps with a traditional alligator print pattern and a matt treatment offer a contemporary twist on a traditional strap, as well as a stainless steel link bracelet.
Jazz mixes a variety of musical styles to create a new and exciting sound and Jazzmaster is a nod to where it all began for Hamilton.
Also available is the Hamilton Intra-Matic Auto Chrono, a modern reworking of a 1968 signature piece that offers a sporty but classic look. An authentic 60s appeal also powered by the exclusive H-31 automatic movement and with a distinctive panda dial.


Meditation has changed my life in the way I look, feel and how I live my life. When I started meditating 24 years ago it was not so popular. Now, meditation is becoming more and more popular not only throughout the United States but now the whole world.
Corporations, schools, small businesses, vacation resorts and retreats are incorporating this beautiful ancient technique as a part of their program.
Our physical health is so important. And just how our physical health is so important, our mental health, which is so often over looked, is arguably even more important.
There are hundreds of ways to meditate. Mantra meditation is my favorite. Mantra is a Sanskrit word, Sanskrit is an ancient language. "Man" means "mind," "Tra" means "instrument" or "tool." Mantra is a repeated word or words that helps calm and quiet the mind.
Meditate with me every morning with this video as I guide you through breathing techniques and mantra meditation.

Up to 20 per cent of staff absent from companies after being 'pinged' by Covid app
Government 'concerned' about number of people off work because of NHS app, says communities secretary
Companies are missing up to 20 per cent of staff who have been forced into self-isolation after being "pinged" by the NHS Covid app, business groups have warned.
The Delta variant of coronavirus is causing staff shortages for UK businesses, with more than 700 workers at Nissan's Sunderland plant reportedly self-isolating after entire teams were sent home.
Communities secretary Robert Jenrick has admitted the government is "concerned" about the number of people off work as a result of being notified by the app, while industry bosses are calling for a relaxation in self-isolation rules to be brought forward.
Those who have been double jabbed will no longer be required to self-isolate for 10 days from 16 August, but business groups want this to be fast-tracked to 19 July, to coincide with most lockdown restrictions being lifted.
Stephen Phipson, chief executive of manufacturers' body Make UK, told the Financial Times the "need to isolate, even without symptoms, is now a serious issue and impacting on production".

He told the newspaper: "In some cases up to 20 per cent of the workforce is now isolating.
"The government must revisit the August date as an immediate priority as the situation is likely to get far worse with the lifting of restrictions next week."
Richard Walker, managing director of Iceland Foods, said social-distancing restrictions ending before self-isolation rules are eased will "be a s*** show for business".
He said in a tweet that Covid-related absences were "growing exponentially" and would be at their "highest ever" within a week or two.
One in five high street workers are currently off work because of government pandemic tracing rules, and the situation could worsen, hospitality and retail bosses have warned MPs.
Kate Nicholls, chief executive of trade group UKHospitality, said firms have forecast that a third of staff could soon be isolating.
"We have one in five hospitality staff in isolation, and we have particular concerns as around 60 per cent of our staff are under 30," she told the Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy committee.
"The changes to allow double-vaccinated people to avoid isolation won't kick in in a material way until September because the workforce won't have been able to have their second jabs until then.
"For many of our small businesses, if you lose one or two of your workers you don't have enough people to open at all, and obviously that has huge ramifications."
Helen Dickinson, chief executive of the British Retail Consortium, said there was a similar proportion of shop worker absences due to isolation rules.
"We are seeing some vacancy rates of around 20 per cent," she told MPs.
"And only some of that is directly people with Covid – a lot is the indirect consequence of having to isolate, irrespective of tests or whether one has had two vaccines.
"I think it is an immediate issue that comes with the lifting of restrictions."

He said ministers would "give further thought" on how to move to a "more proportionate approach".
He told LBC radio: "It is important that we have the app, that we take it seriously, that when we do get those messages we act accordingly. But we are going to give further thought to how we can ensure it is a proportionate response.
"We have indicated that for those who have been double vaccinated there are opportunities to take a more proportionate approach.
"We are concerned about absences as a result of being pinged, for example. That is one of the reasons why we do need to move to a more proportionate approach."

Nakazawa Dōni (japanisch 中澤 道二, Rufname Kameya Kyūbei; geboren 21. September 1725 in Kyōto; gestorben 29. Juli 1803) war ein japanischer Lehrer und Verkünder der Shingaku-Lehre.

Leben und Wirken
Nakazawa Dōni wurde als Sohn eines Webereibesitzers in Kyōto geboren. Er übernahm den Familienbetrieb, war aber schon in jungen Jahren bestrebt, mit großem Einsatz die wahre Bedeutung des Glaubens (妙法, Myōhō) zu studieren. Im Alter von 40 Jahren wurde er Schüler von Tejima Toan (手島 堵庵; 1718–1786), für den er dann vertretungsweise Lesungen durchführen durfte. 1783 wurde auf Wunsch von Tejima die "Shingaku Kosha Sanzensha" (心学講舎参前舎) in Edo-Nihonbashi gegründet und die Mission auf das gesamte Kantō-Gebiet ausgedehnt.

Durch die Arbeit von Nakazawa und seinen Schülern erweiterte sich der Glaubenskreis bis hin zum Tōhoku-Gebiet. Die Zuhörer gehörten meistens dem einfachen Volk an, aber auch 20 Daimyō, darunter auch ein, der aus der Seitenlinie des Honda-Klans in Yamazaki (Provinz Harima) residierte. Gleichzeitig war Nakazawa auch als Lehrer auf dem Stützpunkt (人足寄場, Ninsoku joseba) auf Tsukudajima (佃島) in Edo tätig.

Was die Lehrmethode angeht, so bevorzugte Nakazawa für die Zuhörer aus einfachen Verhältnissen "Weg-Geschichten" (道話, Dōwa). Damit war zumindest der Anfang dessen gesichert, was von der breiten Öffentlichkeit als Shingaku-Geschichte angesehen wird. In "Dōni-Ō Dōwa" (道二翁道話) und in der Fortsetzung "Dōni-Ō Dōwa Sokuhen" (道二翁道話続編), die von den Schülern zusammengestellt wurden, wird Nakazawas Streben sichtbar,  eine Verschmelzung von Ishida Baigans Lehre der Sozialkritik mit der Teshima-Doktrin der subjektiven Lebensphilosophie.

Beispiele für Sekundärliteratur sind "Sekimon-Shingaku-shi no Kenkyū" (石門心学史の研究) von Ishikawa Ken (石川 謙) und "Sekimon-Shingaku" (石門心学), herausgegeben von Shibata Minoru (柴田 実) als 42. Band der "Große Linie der Ideengeschichte Japans" (日本思想大系, Nihon Shisō Taikei).

Michigan Cops Can Legally Have Sex with Human Trafficking Victims During Investigations
The Washington Standard 2017-03-07
The Washington Standard / March 7, 2017
Michigan — As 14 states draft up bills to grant privileged status to police officers with Blue Lives Matter laws, one state, in particular, is magnitudes worse in regards to the atrocities their cops can legally commit. In Michigan, police are granted immunity from prosecution if they have sex with a prostitute or a sex trafficking victim during an investigation. Seriously.
As the Free Thought Project previously reported in 2014, Honolulu police officers urged lawmakers to keep an exemption in state law that allows undercover officers to have sex with prostitutes during investigations. For years, these two states allowed their cops to have sex with prostitutes and victims of human trafficking while at the same time arresting these women.
Hawaii has since gotten rid of their law and, thanks to Bridgette Carr, a director of the Human Trafficking Clinic at the University of Michigan Law School, Michigan is on the chopping block next.
Carr told Michigan Radio she became aware of the exemption a couple of years ago when Hawaii was "phasing out their exemption."
"And a number of folks in the human trafficking community were upset that Michigan retained the exemption," she told the station.
Cops who abuse this ridiculous law say they need the legal protection to catch lawbreakers. Critics, however, including human trafficking experts and other police, say it's unnecessary and can further victimize sex workers, many of whom have been forced into the trade.
"The reason the law is structured the way it is is because of the way the prostitution laws are written," Carr said. "So for law enforcement to have any power to investigate with immunity, they got all the power. And no one thought to go back and carve out a prohibition against sexual intercourse."
Away According to Carr, some police claim they know about this law while others do not.
"No police officer or prosecutor that I spoke with said, 'That's a tool that we use in our training or that's what we expect our law enforcement to be doing,'" she said.

However, according to Carr, some victims of police persecution say that cops use this law to threaten prostitutes and human trafficking victims.
"What I do know from my own clients is that people who either say they are cops, who are cops or who are impersonating cops, know about this exemption and threaten my clients with it sometimes," she said. "It's not rampant, but it happens. And I think it says something about us as a community that we would allow this type of exemption for law enforcement, whether it's used very often or not."
In the Land of the Free, it is against the law to get paid to have sex, unless that sex is filmed, distributed on DVD, and taxed. One of the least talked about systems of oppression in the US is that of persecuting prostitutes. Think about it. The group prosecuting sex workers are allowed to engage in sex with that person and then arrest them for it. It is brutal hypocrisy.
It is important to note when referencing prostitution, we are talking about the mutually beneficial exchange of sexual favors for money by two or more consenting partners — not forced human trafficking.
It's called the "oldest profession in the world" for a reason. Sex is a basic human need. One need only observe the explosive population growth of humans in the last 10,000 years to see that desire to mate is inherent in each and every one one of us.
When one takes this into consideration, the notion of outlawing consensual sex is seen for what it is — sheer insanity. And, it leads to situations like we see in Michigan, where cops grant themselves special privileges to engage in it.
Just like the war on drugs creates crime by pushing the constant demand for illicit substances into the black market, the war on the sex trade creates crime in the same manner. It is time to end both of them.

Join us for a full day interactive forum presented by The 'MPOWER Project and Counter Extremism Project, in partnership with the Permanent Missions of Norway and Jordan.
In today's Internet era, preventing violent extremism must be approached as both art and science, keeping technology, data, and cognitive security in lock-step with hard security and tactical measures, while keeping citizen's rights central to everything.

Currently, the two small front pockets hold post-it notes; the larger pocket holds post-it flags, such as those you see bristling from the pages of The Charming Quirks of Others by Alexander McCall Smith.

Jeff Friesen's Canadian LEGO Models Will Put A Smile On Your Face (PHOTOS)
Brian Vinh Tien Trinh The Huffington Post Canada
Jeff Friesen
LEGO may have started in Denmark but give a few bricks to Jeff Friesen and the results will be undoubtedly Canadian.
By now, you're probably familiar with the Halifax photographer after his first set of Canadian models went viral but Friesen couldn't stop there. Canada is the world's second largest land mass and so it's tough to capture the essence of an entire province or territory in a single model, says Friesen.
"There were some funny ideas left over from the original round of pictures. My goal is to have around five LEGO scenes for every province," he told The Huffington Post Canada in an email, adding that some provinces with larger populations will most likely end up with more models.

The project continues to blend Friesen's love for Canadian travel and the time he spends with his daughter during the winter.
"The new scenes were completed off and on over the long winter. It's a good indoor project."
And while the models were constructed inside, their inspirations are drawn from his time outdoors.
"I'm lucky enough to have visited every province, and I've lived on both coasts and the Prairies, so most of the inspiration comes from actual life experience. The new Alberta scene is basically a remake of something my family witnessed on the Icefields Parkway a couple of summers ago."
As a photographer, Friesen's past projects, like "The Canadian: Ghost Train Cross Canada", have taken him across the country, though he's yet to visit the Northwest Territories which is leaving him stumped for future ideas. When Friesen can't do a modern-day recreation, he takes a few artistic liberties.
"Even fictionalized scenes, such as the Vikings in Newfoundland, are drawn from reality. The landscape in that picture is pretty much how it looked at L'Anse Aux Meadows when I visited, with icebergs looming on the horizon. I'm also fascinated by the different shades of brown in Newfoundland cuisine, so it's wonderful that their home-grown restaurant chain is called Mary Brown's."
Friesen says the ultimate goal is to turn the project into a book. Despite making backgrounds more detailed and breakthroughs in LEGO-Mountie modelling, he's still working out the kinks.
"Hockey has not been featured yet... it's hard to decide which province should get it."

Scarecrow is the fifth Matthew Reilly novel, and the third to feature the main character Captain Shane Schofield, USMC. It was released in 2003.

Plot
Majestic-12, a group of the world's richest men, make up a bounty list of fifteen targets that have to be eliminated before 12 noon of October 26. Among the targets is Shane Schofield, who at that moment is on a mission in Siberia with Book II and a group of U.S. Marines. Schofield's team is supposed to meet up with two Delta groups, the leaders of which are also on M-12's hit list. Schofield's unit comes under fire from a group of bounty hunters led by Cedric Wexley and all but Schofield and Book II are killed. Schofield and Book II escape via a hijacked plane owned by a bounty hunter known as the Hungarian.

Meanwhile, in Afghanistan, Schofield's girlfriend Elizabeth Gant leads a group of Marines, along with Mother, to a cave system where Osama bin Laden's number two man is. Schofield races to Afghanistan to find Gant so that none of the bounty hunters can use her to get to him, but arrives too late to save her and she gets captured by a bounty hunter group known as IG-88, led by Damon "Demon" Larkham. Schofield meets a bounty hunter named Aloysius Knight who has been paid to protect him and teams up with him. Knight and Schofield go to save Gant while Book II and Mother go to London to confront another person on the hit list.

Meanwhile, the other people on the hit list are being taken out. Schofield's friend David Fairfax goes to help one of them but the man he is going to help is killed, as is the person Book II and Mother are attempting to meet. Schofield, Knight, and Gant disguise themselves as bounty hunters to get into a castle owned by Jonathan Killian, one of the men in Majestic-12, to find out more about the bounty hunt. While Knight claims the bounty on two heads, Killian sets a trap for Schofield and Gant, forcing them to escape in one of Killian's cars with Wexley's men in hot pursuit, followed by Knight in his Sukhoi . Schofield goes over a cliff and is presumed dead while Knight and Gant are captured.

Mother is picked up by Rufus, Knight's pilot, and goes to help Knight while Schofield is captured by French soldiers and brought to an aircraft carrier to explain to him why he is to be terminated. At Killian's castle, Gant is brutally murdered on a guillotine. However, Knight escapes, Gant's final words being for Knight to tell Schofield she would have said yes to his planned proposal. Rufus, Mother, and Knight go to rescue Schofield.

On the French aircraft carrier, it is revealed that Schofield, along with the fifteen other targets, are the only people who have quick enough reactions to disable the missiles being launched from disguised ships in the Kormoran Project. The plan involves copies of different countries' missiles being launched at their bitterest enemies, resulting in a new Cold War which will bring in huge profits for the members of Majestic-12. Schofield is rescued by Knight, but then Knight reveals to him that Gant was decapitated.

Saddened by Gant's death, Schofield attempts to commit suicide but is stopped by Mother. in the meantime, the President of the United States gives all of the U.S. Armed Forces' resources to Schofield to neutralize the threat posed by the ships. He then directs certain ships to be sunk using torpedoes. At the same time, Fairfax and Book II are flown to different ships so that Schofield can disable all of the missiles at the same time. Schofield succeeds in disabling the missiles, but Mother is presumed to have perished. Schofield later learns that there is a backup plan and a missile is heading right for Mecca on the first day of Ramadan. Schofield is able to deactivate the missile but in turn, M-12 captures Schofield, Rufus, and Knight.

Schofield is about to be killed in the same way and by the same person as Gant was but Mother reveals herself to be alive and Schofield kills Gant's killer while Rufus is injured. Knight and Schofield go to confront Killian and Wexley is killed too. Schofield throws himself and Killian out of a window in a suicide attempt, but Knight saves Schofield.

Several months later, Knight and Rufus meet the person who hired them, Lillian Mattencourt, the richest woman on the planet, who ruined M-12s plan because they would not let her be part of the group as she was a woman. It is also revealed that the rest of M-12 died in mysterious ways. Demon and the IG-88 kill Knight's payer as revenge for taking two of their bounties during the hunt. Later, at Mother's house, Schofield receives a letter from Knight telling him to accept Gant's death and move on. Schofield then goes to the Marine Corps building and says he's ready for duty again.

Main characters

Shane "Scarecrow" Schofield
Only in his early thirties, Captain Schofield is renowned for his level-headed demeanor and reflexes that afford him the ability to come out of devastating conflict alive. His callsign comes from two vertical scars that run from his eyebrows to his cheeks, over his eyes, wounds he sustained while he was a Harrier pilot for the Marine Corps in Serbia. Although his rank is well below many others in the story, he frequently takes command of the entire United States military; the President personally agreeing to this due to Schofield having saved his life the preceding year. Often resorting to very dangerous strategies to win a battle, it has become the norm for any attempt on his life to end with him escaping while the surrounding environment is more or less demolished. He commands a recon unit of Marines called to aid the Russian government - a trap designed to lead to his death. Upon discovering M-12's plot to change world order, he embarks upon a campaign to ruin the Chameleon and Kormoran projects. He is the protagonist in four Matthew Reilly novels and a novella, Scarecrow being the third novel.

Elizabeth "Fox" Gant
Gant is Schofield's girlfriend (whom he started dating just before Area 7) and a Marine Lieutenant. It is revealed that  Schofield intended to propose to her soon. Gant's callsign was bestowed upon her by admiring male colleagues due to her athletic figure and attractive features. Unlike Schofield and Mother, Gant has neither lightning-fast reflexes nor sheer brute strength and as a result has been seriously injured several times before. That said, she has proven more than capable of holding her own in firefights and hand-to-hand combat in all three Schofield novels. Due to a Marine Corps policy, she has been placed in the command of her own unit rather than in Schofield's. Her other nickname is Dorothy, in reference to The Wizard of Oz, as Gant is in love with Schofield (the Scarecrow), and in The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy likes the scarecrow the most. Gant is viciously beheaded via a guillotine in Killian's Forteresse de Valois by Noonan, an ISS operative working with M-12. Her execution at first drives Schofield to attempt suicide twice, both times failing to do so, but then prompts him to seek vengeance. Gant is a primary character in the first three Scarecrow novels.

Gena "Mother" Newman
Thirty-four years old, 6'4" in height with a fully shaved head and weighing in at over 200 lbs, Mother's callsign is not meant to convey maternal qualities - rather it is short for Motherfucker. She is ordinarily under the command of Schofield, but begins the story instead as Gunnery-Sergeant to Libby Gant. An encounter with a killer whale in Ice Station has left her with a prosthetic left leg from the knee down (it has served not only to provide mobility but to save her life frequently). Fiercely loyal to Schofield and possessed of a similar luck which has allowed her to survive several near-death experiences- to the extent that it is commented towards the end of the novel that the Grim Reaper, if he exists, is only afraid of Mother-, Mother opts for a violent solution more readily than her unit leader. Her short temper and eccentric nature lead her to many hand-to-hand fights with adversaries often even larger than her. Possessed of a sarcastic wit, she is also the helpful best friend to Gant, often offering advice or insight into her relationship with Schofield. Although in awe of Schofield's achievements- to the point where she has never referred to him as anything other than 'Scarecrow' as she regards him as more than a normal man-, she has managed to evade certain death many times herself and is indispensable to Schofield, both as a soldier and a friend. Mother is a primary character in all four Scarecrow pieces.

Aloysius "Black" Knight
A bounty hunter hired to protect the "Scarecrow", Aloysius (Pronounced allo-wishus) "Black" Knight was a captain within Delta Team 7, regarded as the "elite within the elite" of the special forces. He became a fugitive from the US during a mission in Sudan, in which he was infiltrating an arms deal involving Osama bin Laden. Despite being in shooting range of the terrorist, Knight was ordered not to attack, allowing the terrorist to escape while Knight was forced to wait for reinforcements. Later, while preparing to board a Black Hawk piloted by his friend Rufus, he overhears his backup being ordered to kill him and his pilot. He finds out later that the men belong to the ICG (Intelligence Convergence Group), a complex web of civilian and military spies whose job is to ensure all intelligence obtained by the United States of America stays solely within the United States of America. He escaped, along with Rufus, and killed 13 of the men pursuing him.  He was consequently placed on the FBI Most Wanted List and his family killed in a supposedly botched home invasion. He turned to being a mercenary and after successfully rescuing the daughter of the Russian Vice-President, was given a fighter jet known as the "Black Raven"  which Rufus pilots for him, as well as landing privileges at any Russian airfield. He is regarded as the second best bounty hunter in the world after "Demon" Larkham. More than  tall, he dresses entirely in black, in keeping to his call sign "Black Knight". Due to an eye disorder, photophobia, he must wear tinted lenses at all times. This weakness is sometimes exploited by others, as removing his shades will cause him to experience immense pain.

It was revealed by Matthew Reilly that the Black Knight was meant to be a dark double to Scarecrow; he also has an eye problem and has had his disagreements with the US government. This is even mentioned in the book, when Mother (upon hearing his biography) remarks that he sounds like a Shane Schofield gone wrong.

Buck "Book II" Riley Jr
Book II's father, Book, was a loyal friend of Schofield who was killed in the first Scarecrow novel Ice Station. Although initially there was friction between him and Schofield over the death of his father, he has warmed to his new superior and is less cold and brooding than he first was upon joining Schofield's ranks in Area 7. Due to his resemblance to his father he earned the callsign Book II. 25 years old, with a heavy browed face and pug nose, he is described as a "tough-as-nails warrior".  Quieter and composed than the others within his regiment, his level-head affords him Scarecrow's respect. Other than Scarecrow he is the only marine to survive the trap in Siberia at the beginning of the novel. Less inclined to combat than Knight and especially Mother, he is very capable of deduction and serves as an accurate information gatherer for Schofield after managing to secure files on M-12 within the Mossad headquarters. Along with David Fairfax he provides Scarecrow with a long-distance electronic link to the Kormoran supertankers, allowing Scarecrow to disarm several missiles from the other side of the world.

Film
After completing the first draft of his most recent book The Five Greatest Warriors, Matthew Reilly was engaged by a Hollywood producer to adapt Scarecrow into a screenplay. It is to be the first in a series of Shane Schofield movies which Matthew Reilly says is okay with him "but structurally it means introducing characters like Scarecrow and Mother and Book and Fox within the framework of the story in Scarecrow, as opposed to (the prequel) Ice Station".

Allusions
 The name of Demon Larkham's bounty hunter team, IG-88 is taken from the robotic bounty hunter IG-88 who cameos in The Empire Strikes Back.
 Aloysius Knight is named after Aloysius Gonzaga, a Jesuit saint who was the namesake of his old high school St Aloysius' College in Sydney, Australia.
 The character of Lillian Mattencourt "the owner of the Mattencourt Cosmetics Empire and the richest woman in the world" is based on the real life Liliane Bettencourt who really is the richest woman in the world and has the biggest shareholding in L'Oreal, the largest cosmetic company in the world, which was founded by her father.

Criticism
 This novel has many parallels with John Gardner's novel Nobody Lives for Ever.  In both stories, the returning protagonist (Schofield in Scarecrow, James Bond in NLF) is the target of a monetary contract posted by a villainous organisation (Majestic-12 in Scarecrow, SPECTRE in NLF) that requires delivery of the target's severed head, and both stories include the protagonist's loved ones (Gant in Scarecrow, May and Moneypenny in NLF) being used as leverage against the protagonist. A guillotine is also promptly used to kill the protagonist in an execution style chamber in both Scarecrow and NLF.

"Due to fragrance allergies I've been searching for the right conditioner that won't irritate my eyes or skin. This one works very well. I also use the shampoo.

Pro's: Earth Science leaves my hair shiny and soft without any residue, and without all of the chemicals found in most products I have tried in the past.

"Nice Conditioner without the fragrance."
Best conditioner I've ever tried!
"This conditioner does an amazing job of leaving the hair soft and smooth! I've tried so many other conditioners, and they always leave my hair feeling heavy/greasy or they don't provide enough moisture. My hair is very fine and tangles easily, but this product really helps me maintain it!"
