Combined Efforts May Save Fine Arts by Shirley Maynard The fine arts curriculum at TNCC is in danger of being cancelled, Dr. Charles Sieracki, Division Chairman of Communications and Humanities, announced to students at a meeting on February 29. In an effort to save the 30-student, 22 FTES curriculum, students were urged to re-examine their interests to see if they should be reclassified as fine arts students. The Counseling Center will attempt to have unclassified students declare the curriculum if they are indeed working toward a fine arts degree. In 1982-83 there were 1732, or 27.6%, non-curricular students at TNCC. Dr. Sieracki announced that the recommendation to cut curricula came from the State Council for Higher Educa-tion in Virginia (SCHEV). There are 171 curricula that have been recommended for cuts in the Virginia Community College System, according to Dr. Michael Quanty, Coordinator of Institutional Research. Fine arts, Combined Efforts May Save Fine Arts Cont'd a college transfer curriculum, is the only curriculum, to date, to be suggested for review for cancellation at TNCC this time. SCHEV sets guidelines for schools of higher education to follow for cost effectiveness. At two-year schools, the occupational-technological AAS and diploma curricula guideline is 17 full time equivalency status students. The college transfer AA and AS degree programs call for 25 FTES. The 1982-83 Statistical Abstract published by the Office of Institutional Research on campus, shows that the college transfer program is at its highest level since 1977. Twenty-one point nine percent of the student population was in the college transfer program, with 0.5% in the fine arts curriculum. Nine curricula in the occupational-technological programs had fewer students than fine arts. Opticianry had 12 students (0.2%), educational assistant had 9 (0.1%), transportation management had 5 (0.1%), cosmetology had 6 (0.1%), and new curricula fire-fighting, food service, and public administration assistant had 1 (0.1%), 3 (0.1%), and 2 (0.1%), respectively. Many of the occupational-technological curricula are diploma or certificate programs. According to assistant professor Tom Waters, there is more to be considered than actual headcount. The produc-tivity optimum is 25 FTES for the fine arts curriculum. The Faculty Productivity Measures: An Historical Summary published by the OIR does not list the FTES requirement for each curriculum. Dr. Quanty, however, confirmed that the quantitative standard set by SCHEV for fine arts is 25 FTES. Other factors in a review of a curriculum are to be considered, according to Dr. Quanty. Students in other curricula are taking couses in the fine arts program for a total of 66 FTES at Thomas Nelson Community College. TNCC is considered a comprehensive college, as well, and should meet the needs of the whole community. Even though the number of actual graduates is of prime impor-tance in the review of a curriculum, the fact that other students in other curricula are taking the fine arts classes indicates a need and may be justification for continuing the curriculum. If the decision is made to cancel the fine arts curriculum, the classes themselves may be offered for the students who want them. Dr. Sieracki urged college-transfer students to consider their options. "Take only the classes that are offered here that are required for your four-year school. It is not necessary to earn a degree at Thomas Nelson unless you want it."

Fixing One Thing
In 1984, around the time that the Dune movie was coming out, Frank Herbert gave an interview to Jean Marie Stine of the Los Angeles Reader :
JMS: In Dune , written in the early '60s, you were one of the first to question the danger of modifying the ecology of a particular environment to try to "improve" human conditions.
Herbert: Let me give you a little example on that one. About 20 years ago the U.S. and West Germany pooled their resources — well, we put in most of the bucks and the people — and went into North Africa, and all across most of the southern veldt of the Sahara. We dug a lot of tube wells — we drilled them, put pumps on them and brought water up. We did a good thing and then we walked away from it, more or less. Technologically we sure as hell walked away from it.
What happened was that they had more water and more grazing areas. More arable land was opened up, more cattle were put on the land, and the population grew to equal the new food supply. Then about five years ago, the rainfall, cyclic rainfall, decidedly decreased. Three years ago it went, practically dry. Of course the water table went down much faster because they were pumping. Right now as we sit here talking, 2,000 people a day are dying in that area. You can't go in and fix one thing to make everything all right in a complex situation. It's like an internal combustion engine. If there is only one thing wrong you may happen on the one thing that fixes it. But chances are much larger that by just doing one thing you create other problems you're going to have to adjust. And you have to keep adjusting until you create a balance.
For instance, one of the side effects of what we did in some of those North African villages was that we broke down the social system. Women previously went to the well for water, which they carried back on their heads, and the well was where they solved all their community problems. By piping water into the houses we cut off that link in their society and all hell broke loose. There were family feuds, murders, all kinds of things that had never occurred in these places, in that particular way, ever before. The Green Revolution was another, similar con game. We went in with a technologically based system into primitive countries, and where before they had depended on manure and animals to pull their plows and that sort of thing, we made them dependent on special soil additives and special seed stock which was, by the way, very vulnerable to disease.
I'm reminded of The Logic of Failure.
Posted in Economics, Policy, Science | 7 Comments »
Bob Sykes says:
On the other hand, without the Green Revolution we would be living in Paul Erhlich's dystopia, or maybe worse if we had a world war.
Herbert is perilously close to adopting the stance that we should leave the darkies to their own devices whatever the outcome. This is by and large the modern Green position.
Candide III says:
Africa cannot wage world war. Nor true mass migration, either — the few hundreds of thousands which come each year to the EU are a drop in the ocean.
This is also one of the two options in the neoreactionary position — the other one being unabashed colonialism à la Britain in Egypt.
family feuds, murders, all kinds of things that never occurred in those places
I had no idea North Africa was so peaceful! We should put them in charge of the UN!
Cheap sarcasm aside, I think Herbert's obviously right about lowering the water table = BAD. I don't know what we should have done. Underground canals, underground houses?
"The leading cause of problems is solutions"
…which doesn't imply that there should not be solution-creating.
Toddy Cat says:
Herbert certainly has a point, but I'd be willing to bet that there was more to the social disruption he witnessed than simple availability of water. Monistic, single-issue explanations are usually just as misleading and inappropriate as monistic, single-issue solutions.
There is no doubt what so ever that White people are responsible for the deaths of those poor Africans. If they had not put those wells in they would have never been alive to kill. Showing the great deviousness of the White man.
Forgot to add. Where's the Bureau of Sabotage when we need them. (Frank Herbert fans will understand).


So I'm still battling through lots of beauty products and am doing quite well in not buying much new stuff apart from necessary skin care. I haven't done an updated empties post in 6 weeks or so, so the list is is cumulative of that.
1. Garnier Clean and Fresh Cleansing Milk £3.15 - I feel like my skin is changing a lot at the moment so I'm trying to experiment with different skin care combinations to lose my teenage spots that keep appearing even though I am now in my twenties. I love the skin care products and think they are really good value and always get rid of make-up and cleanse the skin very well but for me I just need a routine so I won't be replacing this cleanser. It's crazy value for money this bottle lasted me so long so if you want value for money this really is the cleanser.
2. Garnier Essentials Face Wipes £2.99 - I only use face wipes if I'm staying at friends or my boyfriends and I'm in a rush so I don't rely on them a whole lot. I tend to just pick up wipes that are on offer so I have some to hand. I haven't repurchased these Garnier wipes simply because I've had them for a while and I'm trying some new ones at the moment - they are super wet and very good at removing make up without being too abrasive to the skin.
3. L'Oreal Absolute Eye and Lip Make-up Remover - 125ml £4.99 - I have had this L'Oreal make up remover for what seems like ages - it's perfectly good at doing the job you only need a little bit to remove all your eye make up even the stubborn gels and pens. I've not repurchased as again I wanted to try something new - very fickle I know.
4. Sudocrem Antiseptic Healing Cream - 125g £2.69 - I seem to be relying on this a lot more recently and I'm going through tubs very quickly. It's a product I will most definitely be replacing and always have spares of its so multi-use. I use it for burns, spots, blemishes or just to give my skin a real moisturising treat.
5. Blood orange and white pepper body butter - paraben free 200ml £20.50 - I got this in the March Glossybox and I've absolutely loved using it. It smells divine and it is so thick and moisturising I completely love it. I can't excuse the price tag at the moment though so I won't be replacing this in my collection - it will be going on my treats to myself list when I have some more money.
6. Natural Collection Corrector Stick £1.99 - I've used this product since I was about 12, it's perfect under foundation or concealer on any red blemishes it completely tones it down. I've seen lots of expensive tone correcting products on the market and I don't see the point in them personally this does a perfect job and for just £1.99 I will most definitely be replacing.
7. Caudalie Vinosource S.O.S. Thirst Quenching Serum 30ml £26.10 - Again I got a sample of this in a glossybox, I use it before my moisturiser morning and night and I've loved using it. It's made my skin feel a lot plumper and full of moisture. Once again this is a little too expensive to replace in my collection at the moment so I will be on the look out for a cheaper serum to use in my skin care routine if not this will too be added to my treat list.

Johann Friedrich Cassebohm (getauft 9. September 1698 in Berlin; † 7. Februar 1743 in Berlin) war ein deutscher Professor der Medizin und Anatomie.

Leben und Wirken
Johann Friedrich Cassebohm absolvierte sein Medizinstudium zunächst an der Universität Halle bei den Professoren Georg Ernst Stahl und Friedrich Hoffmann sowie anschließend noch einige Semester in Paris bei Professor Jacob Winslow. Nach Halle zurückgekehrt, übernahm er an seiner dort von 1738 bis 1741 den Lehrstuhl für Anatomie, den er anschließend an Philipp Adolph Böhmer übergab, nachdem er selbst 1741 in die Humboldt-Universität Berlin berufen worden war, um dort den gleichen Lehrstuhl zu übernehmen. Hier verstarb er plötzlich und unerwartet 1743. Zwei Jahre zuvor wurde Cassebohm in die Königlich-Preußische Akademie der Wissenschaften aufgenommen.

Auf seinem Fachgebiet konzentrierte sich Johann Friedrich Cassebohm schwerpunktmäßig auf die Anatomie des Ohres und schrieb hierüber mehrere Abhandlungen. Darüber hinaus entwickelte er ein verbessertes Injektionsverfahren zur Darstellung feinster Gefäße an anatomischen Injektionspräparaten. Er bevorzugte hierbei eine Mischung aus Wachs, Terpentin und Fett mit variierendem Fettanteil. Der Fettanteil bestimmte die Erstarrungsdauer. Über diese Erkenntnisse schrieb er ausführlich in seinen "Methodus secandi". Nebenbei hielt er auch von Zeit zu Zeit zoologische Vorlesungen, vor allem auf dem Gebiet der Entomologie, die in Halle eine lange Tradition hatte.

Zur damaligen Zeit war es nicht üblich, dass Universitäten eigene Sammlungen von Präparaten zur Verfügung hatten. Daher legte Cassebohm mit eigenen Mitteln eine Sammlung anatomischer Präparate an, die er für seine Studien und Vorlesungen nutzte. Dabei übernahm er zusätzlich die von Georg Daniel Coschwitz angelegte Sammlung, das sogenannte "Theatrum Anatomicum", musste aber dafür noch Raten an dessen Erben zahlen. Seine eigenen Präparate flossen später in die Meckelsche Sammlung der Universität ein.

I found this issue running tests with karma at IE11 / Win8.1.
When i try to mock a blob response with $httpBackend.expect, i got InvalidStateError.
I dig and found that this happens because of the angular.copy which clones fake response data.
If i hack angular.copy with something like this the error stops.
And it's related to the issue in pull request #5415, but where that one is only concerned with using the ng-mocks in pass-through mode for e2e testing.
@jurko-gospodnetic, I couldn't reprocude it just by angular.copying and Blob. Could you create a live demo of the issue (e.g. using CodePen, Plnkr etc) ?
#5415, although about $httpBackend and Blobs, is about a totally different problem.
It shows that you can't treat the almost-blob API response object you get from ng-mock as a true blob, while you can do so with the original blob given to ng-mock in its expectation. It also shows how you can not do so with an almost-blob object you get by calling angular.copy() on an actual blob object.
And if calling .slice() on it does not faze you, try using the FileReader interface to get at the blob's content, e.g. by using fileReader.readAsText() and hooking its onload (for success) & error/onloadend (for error) events.
@jurko-gospodnetic, thx for the reproduction. I have submitted a fix in #14064.


REPRESENTATIVES of the Newnan Carnegie Library Foundation from Georgia in the United States of America visited South Ayrshire Council's Carnegie Library in Ayr on a cultural exchange, to see the wide range of facilities on offer.
A building in Georgia that was originally constructed as a library some years ago became a court of law. When the court moved to new premises and the building became vacant, local people decided that they wanted to reinstate the building as a library. Library enthusiasts held a number of fundraising events to purchase the building and return it to its former glory.
The visitors from Newnan were welcomed to Carnegie Library in Ayr by South Ayrshire Council South Ayrshire Council and Councillor Margaret Toner, the Depute Leader of the Council and Portfolio Carrier for Community Services.
The visiting party presented Provost Sloan with a letter from the Mayor of Newnan that explained the reason for the visit and brought greetings to the people of South Ayrshire.
Tom Barclay, Local Studies Librarian at Carnegie Library and renowned local historian, gave the visitors a guided tour of the library and answered questions about our facilities.
Councillor Margaret Toner accepted a copy of 'Gone With the Wind' from the Newnan visitors. As a memento of their visit, Councillor Toner presented the visitors with a copy of the 'History of Ayr'.

Namibia pledges $2.7 million to fight illegal fishing
Namibian President Hage Geingob speaks during a call to ocean-based climate action at the United Nations General Assembly in New York. COURTESY: TWITTER/Namibia Presidency
Namibia on Monday pledged $2.7 million to increase the fight against illegal, unregulated and unreported fishing.
Namibian President Hage Geingob made the announcement as he shared his nation's commitments during a call for ocean-based climate action at the UN General Assembly.
Namibia also committed an extra $5 million towards ocean research and protection during the 2019/2020 financial year. Out of that, $2.3 million has been set aside to facilitate research on oceans, especially on fisheries stocks and the marine ecosystem.
IUU fishing undermines national and regional efforts to conserve and manage fish stocks, according to the Food and Agricultural Organisation.
Estimates by the United States and the European Union show that illegal fishing accounts for nearly $23 billion worth of seafood yearly.
The United Nations has previously warned that fishing communities along the African coastline risk extinction due to illegal fishing and other factors such as mining and pollution.
In 2018, the FAO and Namibia signed an agreement to receive assistance to enhance their capacity to implement the Port State Measures Agreement. The agreement compels countries to eliminate, deter and prevent illegal unregulated and unreported fishing.
President Geingob also disclosed that Namibia is in the final stages of the ratification of Annex 6 of the MARPOL Convention (Convention on the Prevention of Pollution from Ships). This also includes a 50 percent reduction in greenhouse gasses emissions from ships by 2050, in line with the International Maritime Organisation Agreement.
President Geingob added that Namibia, Angola and South Africa and development partners committed $3.8 million for maritime research activities under the Benguela Current Convention (BCC) for the 2019/2020 financial year.
Namibia also committed to ensuring that at least 10 percent of its Exclusive Economic Zone is gazetted as a marine protected area by next year.

Winter has fully arrived in Massachusetts. While digging through our "Hats" box today, I happened upon a flappy number from last year. Santa recently brought me some cheap headphones, and a few amplified speakers too (but those are for another project). Tonight turned out to be the time to merge the two into a Headphone Hat. I've been thinking of the Rock Star MP3 Headphones project in Fashioning Technology as an inspiration for a way to take music on the go. There is a similar project in Diana Eng's Fashion Geek.
First thing was to gather all of what I would need. Recently, I've put together a couple of sewing kits that are ready to travel or stay at home for traditional sewing and soft circuit projects. Inside this particular kit was a bit too much of each thing I might need in a clear pencil case: Too many kinds of thread, too many pins and needles, too many LEDs, and it didn't need two pincushions. When I opened the top, I noticed that the inside of the top would be a handy storage area. It would be nice if there were a way to hold supplies into the lid. The sewing kit modification will have to wait for another day. A nice sharp pair of shears, a seam ripper, some thread, and a needle were all this project called for.
Looking at the flaps on the hat, I saw that they have a seam on the outside edge. I opened it up with the seam ripper, popped the medium-sized headphones into the holes, and then reinforced each side of the openings to keep the seam from unraveling. The headphone jack fit into my phone, though an iPod or MP3 player would work well. If the headphones had a microphone, this would integrate nicely with a cellphone for hands-free use.
This was a very easy, yet functional project, a nice combination. It's easy to do a basic version with other options to add as time, materials, and desires warrant. This project could be done pretty much anywhere. It transforms a hat into something that does what most hat's can't do. The headphones can come out so the hat can be washed. The time stamps on the pictures I took indicate that it was only a half hour to complete, including watching some TV, and taking photos of the process. It was an inexpensive project, these are cheapo headphones (the kit of three was $12), and the hat was one I had in my hat box already. All of these aspects of the Headphone Hat project make me want to try it again.
There are certainly some ways that this project could be improved with other features. Quality headphones would be an obvious upgrade. A power circuit and some LEDs would add some fun visuals. For the truly adventurous, adding a Brain Machine kit would be festive. If I were to go this route, it'd make sense to sew the LEDs that would normally go in the glasses on the Brain Machine to a removable fabric strip which could be folded down over the wearer's eyes.
As I wear the Headphone Hat this evening, it appears that it would be nice to have a guide inside each of the flaps to keep the speakers positioned consistently at ear level. This could be achieved with a bit of hook and loop material inside the flap and on each speaker of the headphones, or there could be some guides sewn or pinned into the flap.
How have you integrated your electronics into your winter wear?

Q: JPlayer can't get played in IE8 I have a problem with jPplayer in IE8. I'm working on an application which should support IE8. It works in every other version >8 of IE and plays on chrome and firefox. I googled it with multiple keywords and changed it based on different scenario but I couldn't find any reason why it's not working. Still I can play the demo page in jplayer site with IE8. The other possibility was wrong swfpath which I tested it and change the "solution" to just flash and it plays in other version of IE.
The error that i'm getting is:

I really appreciate every suggestion.
EDIT:After some digging I figured out that this is not because of jplayer and it's because of angularjs which is not fully compatible with IE8. So I added es5-shim.min.js to my path and it fixed the problem.
Basically I added this peice of code to my program and now everything is working well. for more information you can check out their github page.

Flooding? Like the 700 year flood in Lowndes County 3 years ago today?
the greatest concentration of wetlands is in the Coastal Plain of South Georgia. Though these forested foodplains and wetlands may not seem directly linked to our rivers and streams, they play an important role in holding water during rain events and dispensing it during dry periods. The sponges and kidneys of our state, they mitigate major floods, lessen the impacts of drought, and clean the water that passes through them, while regulating the amount of freshwater entering Georgia's coastal estuaries where commercially important seafood find critical habitat. Additionally, these wetlands provide important habitat for waterfowl and other wildlife.

Traveling to Bruce Lee Paradise Park
Posted in Asia, China
Bruce Lee is one of the most revered martial artists of all time. That said, it's not surprising to see that China have built a massive theme park in his honour. Situated in Lee's hometown in Foshan, Guangdong – the birthplace of Chinese martial arts – the Bruce Lee Paradise Park is a one-stop tourism theme park that celebrates Lee's life, martial arts, and major events involving his works in the world of cinema.
The theme park covers about 3,000 acres of lush vegetation, which is home to thousands of egrets as well as other species of animals. The park is surrounded by lakes, trees, and the crisp air coming from the mountains, making it the perfect place to not only appreciate the life and legacy of Lee but also to meditate and practice martial arts.
In addition to the scenic natural landscapes, the park houses the Bruce Lee Commemorative Museum, Li Yaxin Art Museum, Cao Chong'en Sculpture Gallery, an ecological farm, fish ponds, and other scenic spots where guests can relax the body and mind.
Of course, the park wouldn't be complete without a statue of The Dragon himself. The park boasts the biggest statue ever made in homage to Bruce Lee, which stands at about 20 metres. It is said that the statue costs about 2 million Chinese Yuan or £235,000, and took about two years to build. The bronze statue is one of the masterpieces of Cao Chonggen, who is one of the world's most renowned sculptors. The title "King of Kung Fu" is carved on the statue's foundation, along with a summary of Lee's life.
Lee's unfortunate demise remains shrouded in mystery. Official accounts say that he died after taking pain medication, while others say he was murdered. But whatever the reason was for his untimely death, Lee is no doubt a legend who revolutionised Chinese Kung Fu on the big screen.
Even after Lee's death, his story still lives on in the form of movies and video games. The documentary Bruce Lee: A Warrior's Journey is one of the most critically-acclaimed works of his life featuring a rare shot from Game of Death, which was the last project he worked on before his death.
In terms of video games, his martial arts style is often used in arcade titles such as Street Fighter and Tekken. Casual games also carry his image and likeness, which are portrayed in the slots title Bruce Lee, a pay-to-play game featured on Slingo Slots. Lee's legacy will most probably live on forever given his influence and appeal to the masses in China and beyond.
So, if you're planning to go to Foshan, there are direct flights from the UK to Foshan province. To get to Bruce Lee Paradise in Foshan, you may take Bus Routes 393, 394, 39, and 399 to Bruce Lee Paradise Stop and then walk from there.

Practicing Inclusion through Intercultural Competence
Published: Tues., Oct.20, 2020
As globalization and diversity efforts continue to influence and enrich the cultural landscape of organizations across disciplines, the importance of developing your intercultural competence in order to effectively and appropriately engage and value cultural differences as much as commonalities increases. Intercultural competence includes a range of cognitive, affective, and behavioral skills that are pivotal for cross-cultural communication and collaboration. More importantly, developing one's intercultural competence provides the skills needed to practice meaningful inclusion in an environment where diversity is not only present but also regarded as an integral aspect of inclusive excellence. To better understand the role intercultural competence plays in supporting an inclusive environment, it's necessary to review what defines culture.
Defining Culture
Culture as a term is likely familiar as its often used in relation to activities, experiences, holidays, and many other collective interests enjoyed by any group of people who share a particular interest especially if it's shared in a way that creates connection among that group of people. As the concept is traditionally defined, culture is an applicable term for groups including but not limited to ethnicity, gender, disability, education, religion, nationality, age, sexual orientation, and even organizations. However, it's important to remember that culture is not a monolith. Variations and the interconnected nature of social identities, otherwise called intersectionality, within each group can produce subcultures that are not wholly like or unlike the culture from which it stems. Culture is a dynamic concept that relies on more than a single variable such as ethnicity or religion; it is a multifaceted phenomenon with intricacies that steer the perception of oneself and others.
"Cultural Iceberg" in AACU Report "Methods for Preparing and Assessing Intercultural Competence in Study Abroad"
For example, imagine observing culture as a metaphorical iceberg. You'd soon notice that one part is visible above water and the other is less visible—possibly even hidden— beneath the surface. Keeping with the metaphor, the visible half above the surface symbolizes the aspects of culture we're likely to see or engage most frequently: art, music, food, holidays, language, etc. Beneath the surface, the hidden half would symbolize the aspects of culture we're less likely to see or engage: beliefs, social expectations, behaviors, values, etc. This differentiation between objective culture and subjective culture, respectively, is important to make because intercultural competence development relies on our attitudes toward subjective culture. Psychometric assessments such as the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI) gauge an individual's mindset toward subjective cultural difference and provide individualized development plans to move toward an intercultural mindset.
Supporting Inclusion
Understanding yourself as a multicultural person in terms of your identity, which is influenced by cultures that intersect and layer to create who you are, what you value, and how you engage others is a critical step in developing intercultural competence. Research in organizational dynamics has shown that multicultural teams with leaders who ignore and suppress cultural differences lag significantly in performance when compared to multicultural teams with leaders who acknowledge and support cultural differences. Cultural differences become an asset rather than an obstacle to performance when leaders not only embrace cultural differences but also build organizations that support the diversity within multicultural teams. From Distefano and Maznevski's research, it's important to note that monocultural teams—or teams that are homogenous—experience mediocre performance because cultural differences are not leveraged for innovation that support performance.
Ultimately, an environment that values differences as equally as commonalities is better practicing inclusion than one that values one more than the other. Too much focus on commonalities may lead to conformity, which has the potential to suppress diverse experiences whereas too much focus on differences can lead to fragmentation, which can cause conflict for team members. Commonalities across a multicultural team may look like goals, needs, and interests while differences may look like ideas, values, and practices. Having balanced value for both sets of qualities within a team encourages the focus and innovation needed to lead the organization toward improved performance overall.
Graduate students interested in taking the IDI and learning more about intercultural competence development should contact the assistant director of graduate enrollment for diversity and inclusion, Ruth Oliver, at ruth.oliver@unl.edu.

Bank of England and Eurozone rates remained at or near zero as of the end of Q3 2021. U.S. rate stood at 0.25% at the end of Q3 2021. China's rate was over 4.3%.
Since 2002, China's 1 Year or Less rate has consistently been highest, rising from above 5% to above 7% by 2008. It fell sharply to above 5% by 2009, then rose in 2011 to roughly 6.6%. It then fell to 6% in 2012 to 2014 and decreased in a series of steps to above 4% by 2016 where it has stayed as of the end of Q3 2021.
The U.S. Fed Funds Rate began near 5.5% and rose briefly to near 6.5%, then declined sharply in a series of steps to 1% by 2004. It then increased sharply to above 5% by late 2007, then fell to near 0.25% by 2009. From 2009 to late 2015 the Fed rate was near 0.25%. From 2016 it rose in a series of steps to 2.5% in mid 2019, but as of the end of Q1 2020 it had fallen to 0.25%, where it remained as of Q3 2021.
The Bank of England Base Rate began just below 6%, increased to 6%, then fell to 4% by 2002. It remained near 4%-5% until late 2007, when it rose to 5.75% It then fell to precipitously to 0.5% in mid 2009, declining still further to 0.1% in March 2020, where it remained as of the end of Q3 2021.
Finally, the Eurozone Main Refi Min Bid Rate began at 3% and increased to near 5% by 2001. From 2001-late 2003 it fell to 2% and remained at that level until 2006, when it rose in a series of steps to above 4% by late 2008. It then fell sharply to 1% by 2009, remained at or just above 1% through 2011, then fell in a series of steps to 0% by late 2014 – 2016, where it remained as of the end of Q3 2021.

The word candle conjures up many thoughts of how the candle for hundreds of years was used to light the night. The gas lantern threatened the candle industry until Edison invented electricity and both were history or so we thought.
Until, scented candles became the rage especially around my house during the holidays. I love the apple-cinnamon or apple spice smell around the house during the holidays.
But, after several reported fires, luckily not at my home with teenagers who did not know I had changed to electric scented candles.
It is ironic how Thomas Edison invented electricity to replace gas lanterns and candles only to see electric candle and electric gas lamp makes a comeback.
The word candle is related to different meaning, yet it still lights the night when the electricity goes out.
That's right. When we lived in Holland, we used candles when the sun starts to set from 4pm. They are handy and useful!
We'd also like to the the scented candle that emits and spread light.
Isn't it interesting – I just published a post about candles only yesterday !

London: If you are dating a beautiful girl, please take note: Relationships in which the woman is more attractive than the man may be doomed to failure, says a new study.
However, having a handsome husband or boyfriend is no barrier to the couple`s success, according to the study.
A team from the Stirling, Chester and Liverpool University in the UK spotted the strange phenomenon while studying whether people tend to pair up with those who are similarly attractive to themselves.
The findings could help explain why Angelina Jolie`s marriages to actors Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton ended in just three years, while her relationship with Brad Pitt – one of the world`s most handsome celebrities – has already lasted six years, the Daily Mail reported.
For the study, the researchers took photos of the men and women in more than 100 couples. Some had been together for just a few months, others for several years. The individual men and women were then rated on their looks.
Their analysis revealed that having an attractive husband or boyfriend was no barrier to a relationship succeeding. But, if the woman was extremely beautiful, the relationships tended to last only a matter of months, the researchers found.
Researcher Rob Burriss said: "This would indicate it is the woman who is in control of whether the relationship continues."
"Beautiful women may realise they can afford to pick and choose," he suggested, adding that they may also have the confidence to leave behind relationships that have run their course.
"Attractive women might generally prefer short-term relationships. They`re better placed to move on," he said.
It is also possible that the relationships end due to jealous behaviour from the woman`s less photogenic partner.
Conversely, the less attractive women "may have to make do with what they have, hence the longer relationships", noted Dr Burriss.
The study also found that people tend to pair up with people whose facial features have a similar level of symmetry- a sign of beauty- to our own.
"Are all men trying to go out with Anne Hathaway or Angelina Jolie, or do you really want to be with someone at the same level of attractiveness as yourself? These findings suggest our ideal partner is one on our own kind of level," Dr Burriss concluded.


WASHINGTON—The Trump-named GOP National Labor Relations Board majority has given a boost to employers' "independent contractor" dodge – and that's bad news for millions of workers, union and non-union.
By a 3-1 party-line vote in a case involving Dallas-Fort Worth Airport SuperShuttle drivers who wanted to unionize with Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1338, the board's Republicans upheld and expanded employers' rights to misclassify workers as independent contractors.
That gives venal, vicious and cost-cutting employers, seeking to undercut their competitors – including their union competitors — an edge, too. By forcing workers to be "independent contractors," they can drive down their labor costs.
EPI noted the Labor Department keeps no national data on how many workers are subject to the firms' independent contractor dodge. Democratic President Barack Obama's DOL was particularly active in pursuing and battling such misclassification of workers as independent contractors. Trump's DOL isn't.
Independent contractors are particularly pervasive in trucking, warehousing and child care. The most comprehensive study, stretching across all industries, was in Michigan. It found 8.4 percent of all workers in the state – one of every 12 — were misclassified as independent contractors.
And the L.A. port trucking firms also force their "independent contractor" drivers to pay for gas, tires, and maintenance. The result – at least until cases where the California Labor Department reclassified the trackers as "employees" – is truckers who often took home minuscule paychecks or nothing at all.
While the NLRB is boosting independent contractors, Washington state is going in the other direction. It's on the way to joining a growing list of states, led by California, New York, and Illinois, who have put curbs on misclassification of workers as independent contractors.
Washington state's legislation, HB1515 and SB5513) would enact a broad "ABC test" that presumes workers are "employees" – not independent contractors – unless "they are free from control" by the company, do work "outside the usual course of business" of the firm that's hiring them and "are engaged in an independent business" of their own.


REVIEW: The Sound of Music, Kings Theatre, Southsea, until Saturday, March 10.
The Kings is most thrillingly alive with The Sound of Music, a classic in a beautiful new production which effortlessly, compellingly underlines its urgent, ongoing relevance.
At the heart of it all is a genuinely entrancing performance from Lucy O'Byrne, a complete stage natural who captures all Maria's playful sparkle – and also her increasing resourcefulness and resilience as the dark clouds gather.
For those of us who have lazily thought of the musical as a rather over-long dozy Sunday-afternoon film, the sheer oomph of the stage version comes as quite a shock.
We get the joyfulness, we get the playfulness, we get the fun, we get the ice melting as a grieving widower learns to love again. But we also get the sense of threat as the Nazi invasion looms. The unfurling of the Nazi banners sends a chill – and so the family famously flees, a story tragically unfolding every day for many thousands in countless countries across the world.
The Sound of Music comes complete with glorious music, but it also, just as importantly, comes with something to say.
And how well the cast say it. O'Byrne is a delight, a perfect Maria, a naïve but sweet young woman on a difficult journey into the heart of darkness and out the other side.
Neil McDermott is similarly impressive as the dashing Captain Von Trapp, a man who learns to appreciate the children he has so sorely neglected under the weight of his own tragedy.
Just as they need to, the youngsters filling the shoes of those famous Von Trapp children get it exactly right on a night which is rich, poignant and memorable.

Catalan High Court breaks with the post-Franco linguistic consensus in schools
Mass demonstration in defense of Catalan in schools in Barcelona. Cèlia Atset
Leer en castellano
The judicial sword of Damocles has become effective. Catalonia's High Court has ruled that the Catalan government has to force schools to teach 25% of classes in Spanish, which is a blow to the linguistic immersion that has been applied in Catalonia for almost forty years with a wide social acceptance. This acceptance has allowed thousands of children who did not have Catalan as their habitual language to learn it, without being detrimental to the use of Spanish. The civic and academic success of this system is beyond doubt, as corroborated by the data. Now, however, after years of insistence by a minority of families (specifically, a little more than a hundred since 2005) who have enjoyed the active support of the Spanish media and the right, and who have used the courts to achieve their goals, we are entering an uncertain stage.
The main danger is to introduce the seed of division in schools and in Catalan society for reasons of language, a possibility that has always been avoided. The coexistence of the two official languages has been a very well preserved value, based on the general acceptance that Catalan was the weaker language and the one that, therefore, had to be positively discriminated. The school was one of its few pillars, despite recent studies warning that the lax application of immersion was cornering it in the classroom too. And this is where the second danger appears: the ruling worsens an already bad situation. In practice, if it becomes effective, it can be a serious blow to the historical language of the country, which is now in a situation of clear regression.
The judicial imposition of 25% of Spanish in the classroom is a serious blow to the positive discrimination of Catalan through immersion
The irruption of the so-called "government of the judges", imposing quotas in such a delicate matter, considered essential by a large part of Catalan society, opens, on the other hand, a panorama of political instability that can have repercussions on the governability of Spain – we need only remember the negotiations over the budget – and that of course can also have consequences in the attempt, already quite weak, to put on track the Catalan sovereigntist struggle on the track of dialogue. Touching the language, and more specifically dismantling the great historical consensus on the school system, also means breaking the pacts of the Transition to democracy and violating social cohesion.
The Catalan government now has a very serious problem on the table. The path of disobedience is difficult to follow because it would involve thousands of civil servants and could have an undesirable effect on the education of thousands of children, already disrupted enough by the pandemic. But to accept without further ado an imposition by the courts that does not respond to the reality of majority public opinion is not acceptable either. Therefore, it is to be hoped that the Catalan government, which should already have foreseen this possible judicial outcome, will respond intelligently and firmly to this interference, providing security to teachers and families, and seeking legal modifications (for example, through the Catalan education law), so that school and academic life can continue its course and Catalan, a collective cultural heritage, does not lose its place in schools.
