Payments cloaked as car names
Burga
NEW YORK (AP):
Payments to the head of Peruvian football were masked under the name 'Fiat'. Money for Paraguay's boss was listed as 'Honda'. Excel spreadsheets detailed the cloak-and-dagger recording system of money given to 'Benz', 'VW', 'Toyota', 'Kia', and 'Peugeot', among others, including a pair of payments labelled 'Q2022' that appeared to be related to the FIFA executive committee's 2010 vote giving Qatar rights to host the 2022 World Cup.
"We basically decided to make up fantasy names for each of the people involved," sports marketing executive Santiago Pena testified yesterday as the trial of three high-ranking football executives entered its second week at federal court in Brooklyn.
Pena worked for Full Play Group, a company based in Argentina that won marketing rights to South American World Cup qualifiers and the Copa America and Copa Libertatores tournaments.
Hugo and Mariano Jinkis, a father and son who are Full Play's controlling principals, were indicted along with many top football executives in 2015 by US prosecutors. The father and son have not been extradited thus far.
Pena testified that he took the ledger from Full Play's office on a thumb drive along with a stack of documents shortly after the first indictments were unsealed in May 2015, and kept the evidence at his home for two years before turning it over the American prosecutors.
Juan Angel Napout, the ex-president of Paraguay's soccer federation; Jose Maria Marin, the former president of Brazil's football federation; and Manuel Burga, the ex-head of Peru's football federation; are on trial for racketeering conspiracy, wire fraud conspiracy and money laundering conspiracy.
Rafael Esquivel, the former president of Venezuelan soccer, was nicknamed 'Benz' and his ledger listed a $750,000 payment owed for 'Q2022'. He pleaded guilty in November 2016 to racketeering conspiracy, three counts of wire fraud conspiracy and three counts of money laundering conspiracy.
Luis Chiriboga, the former president of Ecuadorean soccer, was nicknamed 'Toyota' and his ledger listed a $500,000 payment owed for 'Q2022'. He was convicted in his own country in November 2016 of money laundering.
Neither Esquivel nor Chiriboga was on the FIFA executive committee that made Qatar the 2022 World Cup host. M. Kristen Mace, the assistant US attorney questioning Pena, did not ask whether the payments were to be redirected to others.
Other nicknames included 'VW' for Carlos Chavez of Bolivia, 'Honda' for Napout, 'Fiat' for Burga, 'Flemic', for Luis Bedoya of Colombia, 'Kia' for Sergio Jadue of Chile and 'Peugeot' for Jose Meiszner, the former general secretary of the South American governing body CONMEBOL.

Another 7 days have come and gone! This life is cray-cray.
How was your week? Mine was basically yoga, Sayde walks, emails, and writing. I gave Ben a haircut, went to my first Cape Cod Fashion Show (woot woot!), and everything else is a blur. A lot more happened, of that I'm sure, but honestly, I'll need another cup of tea before I can begin to remember all of it.
I finally finished the season! Hooray! It only took me about a month post-finale to get caught up, but hey, this way I was really able to savor each episode ;) Whether you love it or hate it (and if you hate it, I would like to know why...?), you have to admit that the dialogue on GIRLS is just straight clever. I laughed out loud, cringed many times (as usual), and just generally loved watching the characters muddle their way through life. Also, I heart Lena Dunham 4EVA.
Last weekend, we took a long walk with Sayde on Saturday afternoon. When we got back, we spent some time sitting on our back patio, talking and soaking up the sun. After a bit, I went inside and poured myself a glass of white wine. I added an ice cube, because that's how I roll (100% classy), and sipped on it in the back yard while basking in the springtime air. I said to Ben, "I decided to pour myself a glass of wine because I'm an adult and if I want to drink a glass at 4:45 on a Saturday, I can." He made fun of me, but that's how I felt. And it was great.
We used to give Baby Gar a hard boiled dyed egg and he would always go bury it, after a careful tour of the yard to get inspiration about the exact spot where that egg belonged!

Women-owned enterprises can create 150-170M jobs in India by 2030: Report
About 59% of women believe working for themselves reduces their dependence on their spouse or family, while 46% view it as a means to break through glass ceiling, it read.
Garima Bora
India reports 16 million women owned enterprises but only 17% employ people, says a report by Google India and Bain & Company. The report on Powering The Economy With Her- Women Entrepreneurship in India was launched on Tuesday in New Delhi.
According to the report, in the 17% women-owned enterprises which employ people, employment is 20% lower than average.
Women owned enterprises can generate 150-170 million jobs in India by 2030, it read. It added that India needs to create jobs for up to 400 million women of working age.
Megha Chawla, Partner, Bain & Company, highlighted four dominant challenges women entrepreneurs face in India- personal and cultural factors, access to funding, access to knowledge and professional support.
"Personal & cultural factors rank highest in the barriers that stand between Indian women & their entrepreneurship dreams," she said.
The report pointed out that "an all-states effort that is focused on enabling women entrepreneurs to start up and scale could, by 2030, increase direct employment by around 50 million to 60 million people and increase indirect and induced employment of another 100 million to 110 million people."
When asked about the status of women entrepreneurship among Tier-II and Tier-III cities, Chawla told ET Digital, "We see a lot of opportunity in Tier-II, III or semi-urban areas. Some of them have even scaled very well. We see a lot of well-educated women in these areas and access to the Internet is making such a big difference in driving the entrepreneurial growth."
She added that at the same time they find a large opportunity for systematic intervention to be able to catalyze more such entrepreneurial activity in these areas.
She pointed out that they witnessed women entrepreneurs running their business in various sectors, from food products to retail, apparel, education and technology.
"What is very encouraging is that we are actually seeing a lot of emerging entrepreneurs that are venturing in sectors, which women traditionally don't go, but absolutely they should. While you still see a large share in retail or apparel or education, you are also seeing enough women in technology, in software. You are seeing women in manufacturing; you're seeing women in welding. So you do see a pretty good mix now," she said.
For Sapna Chadha, Senior Marketing Director, Google India and Southeast Asia, there is a need to invest in digitization in rural areas, especially among aspiring women entrepreneurs. She explained that they realised there are a host of issues surrounding digitization in rural India, which mostly involves social barriers and affordability of internet devices.
She further mentioned that as internet devices became more accessible and cheaper, they witnessed a big change. "We saw growth in the number of women showing signs of inclination for doing something to improve their livelihoods. That's the next step in our journey- how can the internet actually be an enabler of a livelihood and how they [women] can contribute value in their family and their community."

Please see below posting on bogoff costume jewelry marks.
Gold can instantly bond with various metals to produce alloys, and as such different colors could be created from the original quantity of fine gold to come up with other tints which are so common. Stainless steel jewelry as a present-day is extremely fitting on account regarding the wide array of styles and designs which other metals cannot offer. Sterling silver is more affordable than gold and sterling silver continues to be supreme quality and could make a fantastic present.
Heralding a bandwagon of style police is quite simple. this way you can build something of genuine beauty, interest as well as great sentimental price. A great deal of folks are considering making various jewelry items with distinctive materials.

A Madcap Journey of Clowns and Crypto-Currency–Making The Pitts Circus Movie
Artists Europe
January 29, 2018 January 7, 2018 Kim CampbellFilm
At first glance, Ken Fanning is perhaps an unlikely film director for a mockumentary about an Australian circus family. Busy running his own big top circus show in Belfast called Tumble Circus, it would seem impractical for this self-professed anarchist clown to then pop over to Australia and make a film called The Pitts Circus, but Ken is anything but practical and his roots go straight back to street circus, where he has prevailed in large part due to his quirky sense of humor and what can only be the best street patter in the UK.
So it is no surprise that this ability to sell oneself translates so well in the DIY world of independent film-making where Ken is excited to continue his work. What sets Ken apart from other DIY film makers is that he didn't start with himself as a subject, and that he funded the whole award winning film with the help of his partner, using cryptocurrency. We had a word with Ken about his favorite project, and his answers were equal parts entertaining and eye-opening. For artists looking for a way to self-produce shows and films, Ken's method might be a way to hone in on some emerging options. What is this film all about? The feature length film is about a real life circus family who are called the Pitts. The film was made on a micro budget and shot in 3 different countries with an international cast, and without a script. It is an Irish-Australian-Swiss Co-Production. We shot it in Western Australia, Ireland and Switzerland. �...

Well, where do I start with my time at Country Tipis, I know exactly where I'll start, with myself.
I began my journey to become a tipi erection specialist in early summer 2017 and if I'm honest I don't know what they would have done without me… only joking! On a serious note, when I first joined I was so impressed with the rate at which Richard and Ceri have built the business to where it is today. Anyway, enough about them back to me.
Before beginning my Tipi adventure, I completed an engineering degree at Oxford Brookes University. Country Tipis offered me the perfect job during the summer months until I started my adventure in the city by the sea of Plymouth. I have recently moved down there to study towards a masters in Coastal Engineering. You never know I may be writing my dissertation on the feasibility of a water born Tipi! I am a budding surfer (hence the move to the glorious south west) and just a few weeks after leaving Country Tipis I was reunited with the beautiful structures on the beach at a surf event.
Enjoying some airtime next to Smeaton's Tower in Plymouth recently: I'm studying hard I promise!
Throughout summer I have been curious as to the origins and practical engineering element of a tipi structure. The origin of Tipis (or Teepees) lie with the Native American tribes whose main aim for survival was to follow the buffalo herds across the American plains. The tipi was the perfect structure for the nomadic lifestyle, as setting up and disassembling was frequent and required minimal effort but maximum effectiveness. This is completely relatable to when we were trekking all around, setting up and taking down these amazing structures!
An interesting fact I stumbled across was that the women of the tribes were the sole assemblers, organisers and decorators of the tipis. Men were required to receive permission from the women to be able to carry out any decoration…not too dissimilar to many conversations over heard during many set-ups… I shall say no more! The tipis were often arranged in a circular pattern to create a secure living environment. We too can arrange as many tipis as required in a variety of formations to fit the space and type of event.
The design of the tipi is well suited to cope in all weather conditions. Similar to our modern day equivalent, the native Americans too had smoke flaps which kept the wind and rain out. It is well insulated to protect inhabitants from the cold and frost during winter months. The uninterrupted surface around the entire structure prevents the wind catching and blowing it over. The smoke flaps also allow for air flow, creating a cool environment during hot days.
Our tipis, designed and manufactured by the UK based The Tipi Company are simple but very effective. One of the key elements to a Tipi is the use of straps when joining more than one, to maintain tension on the canvas and keep it taught and safe. Visually, the tension creates a smoothness to the tipi canvas and it became a challenge for every event to be able to create the cleanest, tightest and most satisfying join. From an engineering aspect, when the wind applies a force to the canvas, the majority of the load is transferred through and around the canvas and because the canvas is made of a partially elastic material it absorbs the energy from the wind in the stretching of the material (I hope I'm not boring you too much!).
Our Tipis are often likened to a Tardis: from the outside, the scale and height of these structures is amazing but the most underestimated part of the tipi is the open plan space that is created inside. Tipis are so adaptable, many times we would arrive at a site and really question whether the tipi is going to fit/work but we always pulled it off. I felt like everyone had a particular skill that we would perfect every time, one of mine were fitting blanking panels to tidy up the joins, shout out to my blanking panel buddy Jason, who taught me everything I know 😉.
During one return journey from a job, I was boring Ceri with the idea of possible improvements to the design of the tipis. One idea was to use a lightweight alternative material legs such as a carbon fibre composite with a wood laminate to still give the natural feel. The Tipi Company, if you're reading this and decide to follow this up, copyrights are here. Another really cool idea I had was to create a mezzanine level, I think it would really make the most of the height of the Tipi just make an event even more exciting, it would also be a great storage place for those who just don't want to go home!
It was a fantastic summer working for Country Tipis, I explored parts of my own county I never knew existed. Richard, Ceri and all the team are inspiring and I wish them all the best for the future. Peace out from Plymouth!


"And me," Jazmynde nodded. "I refuse to pretend I am not a monster as well. I dislike violence. It is inelegant, but that doesn't stop me from committing it.
"When he found me, I was completing my military history education on Amazonis Planitia. A casual interest of mine among many, but I was good at it. I mostly did hypothetical studies: alternative solutions to military problems, scenarios using current technology, and yes… ideas on conquest for the solar system. All completely academic. I was well known within the small academic community I was in, but that was all and I was as content as a young woman can be. There is a rush to being known as a young savant, no matter how ill-deserved that might be.
"My father was the commander at Pettit – an auspicious-sounding title in this military age, but nothing more than a grand administrator. He was an honorable man. That is what killed him.
"Everyone knows that Mars was the Leader's first conquest. What is glossed over in history, now that the beneficiaries of the Leader write it, are the small holdouts there. The tiny bases like Poynting, Sytinskya, and yes, Pettit.
"The Leader had already recruited me when I heard about what happened to Pettit. My studies were done on the campus at Tooting. so I was far away from the mess. The Leader had already 'recruited' me and I was a junior member of his command.
"Vengeance is futile, Mara. If I killed the Leader at that time, one of his inner circle – maybe his best friend Lanyon – would have taken over. The Leader surrounded himself with terrible people. I certainly would not have survived. I wanted to die for a while, but I did what I do best: I analyzed the situation. Not just my father's death: what events lead up to my father's death. What events created the Leader and his friends. How did we get here, to this spot, when a war had never followed us out to space before?
"Why is it so?" Mara asked.
"But one last thing," Mara said.
"Since all is being admitted," Mara said, "how did you kill the Leader?
"'It's about time,'" Jazmynde said.
Jazmynde smiled. Perhaps Mara was teachable yet.
"You sent an innocent man to die," Mara protested.
"It was VERY just," Jazmynde said. "He had done the same thing to so many other people. He stoked the Leader's paranoia and like a forming planet, he cleared his orbit of anyone in his way. He deserved to die, and in exactly the way I set up.
Mara looked away. "Witch," she muttered.
"I try to tell the truth as often as possible," Jazmynde said.
"And now, we are about to enter a period of chaos," Mara said sadly.
"You made that choice for everyone," Mara snapped.
"By finally killing those who want to wage it. This assault from Wilhelm – he plans on it being the opening gun to secure his place as the new Leader. Yumi plans on being the power behind the throne. What if neither person is necessary to society? And what if society realizes this?
"And even better, Mara… what if we are not needed. If I could make us the last gasp of militarized human conflict, then my father would truly be avenged. If I have my way, you, me, Yumi, Wilhelm, the Leader, all of us will be very poorly remembered by history.
"Me included?" Mara asked, shifting.
Mara considered it deeply, thinking about what Jazmynde said. A people without a grand leader. Humanity making its own way. Unlearning war and conquest.
Mara yelped and her hand flew up to the back of her head. She rubbed a spot just by the base of her skull. "Ow!" she yelled.
"Well," Jazmynde said, "It had a little something extra. Basically, when you came to live with me initially, all those decades ago, you got an identity chip implanted to allow you to go through areas that were coded to you. The chips also contained scripts that would run commands with my voice ident. The ident chip had far more power than needed. Basically, it had a power supply attached that could overload, either shocking you into immobility or blowing up, severing your head from your neck. I just destroyed yours. A bit of a sting, but you can't fry a board without some collateral damage.
"But you have done all of those all the time, Jazmynde," Mara said.
"So am I to be a witch?" Mara asked.

Panic in Hawaii: Residents Wake Up to Ballistic Missile Emergency Alert Sent by Mistake
"BALLISTIC MISSILE THREAT INBOUND TO HAWAII," the message read. "SEEK IMMEDIATE SHELTER. THIS IS NOT A DRILL"
Itay Hod | January 13, 2018 @ 11:21 AM	Last Updated: January 14, 2018 @ 9:44 AM
UPDATE 1/14/2017 9:35 a.m. PT: FCC chairman Ajit Pai issued a statement Sunday, calling the false emergency alert sent yesterday in Hawaii was "absolutely unacceptable."
"It caused a wave of panic across the state–worsened by the 38-minute delay before a correction alert was issued. Moreover, false alerts undermine public confidence in the alerting system and thus reduce their effectiveness during real emergencies," Chairman Pai said.
"The FCC's investigation into this incident is well underway. We have been in close contact with federal and state officials, gathering the facts about how this false alert was issued. Based on the information we have collected so far, it appears that the government of Hawaii did not have reasonable safeguards or process controls in place to prevent the transmission of a false alert."
He concluded, "Moving forward, we will focus on what steps need to be taken to prevent a similar incident from happening again. Federal, state, and local officials throughout the country need to work together to identify any vulnerabilities to false alerts and do what's necessary to fix them. We also must ensure that corrections are issued immediately in the event that a false alert does go out."
UPDATE 1/13/2017 11:52 a.m. PT: Hawaii Gov. David Ige told CNN that someone "pushed the wrong button" during an employee shift change, sending out the false alert about an incoming ballistic missile.
Hawaii residents got a jolt this morning as they woke up to frightening mobile push alerts warning island residents of an incoming missile and instructing people to seek shelter.
Hawaii's Emergency Management Agency then quickly announced that the message was a mistake.
"BALLISTIC MISSILE THREAT INBOUND TO HAWAII," the message read. "SEEK IMMEDIATE SHELTER. THIS IS NOT A DRILL."

Confused residents tweeted screenshots of the warnings shortly after 8 a.m. local time.
Hawaii is considered particularly vulnerable these days because it's on the flight path between the U.S. mainland and North Korea, which has been conducting intercontinental ballistic missile tests by Kim Jong-un.
The Hawaii Emergency Management Agency tweeted its correction 12 minutes after the alert was issued to say it was a false alarm.
NO missile threat to Hawaii.
— Hawaii EMA (@Hawaii_EMA) January 13, 2018
Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell and Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) also tried to calm their constituents in the message, calling it a "false alarm."
HAWAII – THIS IS A FALSE ALARM. THERE IS NO INCOMING MISSILE TO HAWAII. I HAVE CONFIRMED WITH OFFICIALS THERE IS NO INCOMING MISSILE. pic.twitter.com/DxfTXIDOQs
— Tulsi Gabbard (@TulsiGabbard) January 13, 2018
The ballistic missile warning that was issued is a FALSE alarm. Repeat FALSE alarm.
— Mayor Kirk Caldwell (@MayorKirkHNL) January 13, 2018
Hawaii News Now reported that the alert "sent people scrambling for shelters and their cars, and online for additional news."
The site also said that cell phones were overloaded while the Hawaii Emergency Management's website appeared to crash.

ACE and AMiE conferences
More than 70 gathered for the AMiE conference to celebrate growth and consolidation, to be reminded of the amazing love and grace of God and some key principles for continuing in faithfulness, and to hear about some plans for developing structures for mission. There are now 25 congregations or planting initiatives in the Convocation, and more in the pipeline. The first face to face meeting for two years was much appreciated, as it enables vital work of informal discussion and prayer that is lost in Zoom meetings.
Some of the ACE presbyters met in person in Leeds recently, prior to the AMiE conference, to pray together and discuss how ACE can plan for and enable growth with limited capacity. The team rejoiced in 3 new congregations who had joined since the beginning of the year as well as the sizeable number of ongoing conversations with others also looking to become part of the convocation. Much of the focus was on maintaining and embedding ACE's values in our welcome, formation and culture, particularly providing an ecclesial home that offers gospel generosity along with gracious accountability.
Church of England: LLF process
The Church of England's Living in Love and Faith process is nearing its conclusion with discussions at local level in parishes and Deaneries. CEEC takes the view that the evangelical voice needs to be heard through these discussions, and that those who have not yet taken the time to fully get to grips with complex questions of theology, culture and sexual ethics can benefit from getting involved. CEEC has produced a guide to enable evangelicals to engage graciously and faithfully.
Other evangelical Anglicans take a more critical view of LLF, saying it does not provide a level playing field for open discussion, but is slanted towards leading the church to accept radically different views on the bible and sexuality as equally valid, and to persuade conservatives to accept change for the sake of 'mission'. Examples of this view can be found here and here.
The Free Church of England
The Free Church of England partnered with Reformed Episcopal churches in mainland Europe and the US, is also part of Gafcon GBE. More information on their history and current ministry can be found on our website.
Freedom of speech and thought; freedom for gospel ministry
The government's proposal to bring in a legal ban on 'conversion therapy' has been criticised for going much further than just restricting coercive attempts to change sexual orientation. Instead, as the Minister's Consultation Letter, now signed by nearly 5000 people and delivered to government in February, points out, the proposed laws threaten freedom to teach biblical doctrine on sex and marriage, freedom to have pastoral conversations about change of thought and behaviour, and would seek to prevent anyone from changing their mind towards a more conservative view about sex and gender.
Four Church of England Bishops have publicly rebuked those clergy who signed the letter, even though they are supposed to uphold the very teaching which would be restricted by the proposed ban. The main author of the Ministers' Letter, Matthew Roberts, asks whether these bishops would really be prepared to see conservative clergy be prosecuted. See full report from LifeSite here.
Meanwhile in Finland, the landmark case continues of the Christian politician, on trial for publicly sharing bible verses and authoring a tract on the Christian view of sex and marriage. Last month Päivi Räsänen addressed the Evangelical Alliance of Spain, and her talk on the Word of God and freedom in Europe is available as a transcript as well as on video. She says:
"The more we keep silent about the teachings of the Bible on the painful issues of our time, the more powerful is the rejection. Our time challenges us to commit to the Word of God. We are especially called to stand firm in those parts of the Scriptures that contradict the spirit of the time."
More interviews from around the world
Rodrigo Cavalcanti da Silva, originally from Brazil, is now living in Portugal with his family.
Orthodox Anglicans broke away from the Episcopal Church in 2005 as it was heading rapidly in a liberal direction. The Anglican Church of Brazil was recognised by Gafcon as a Province in 2018. Rodrigo led the establishment of a new bible-based seminary, mostly operating online. It now has more than 200 students. He has now planted a new church in Braga, and hopefully in more centres in Portugal. He asks for prayer for a venue.
The interview with Bishop Andy can be seen here.
Tim Anderson is an experienced minister who trained and served initially in urban centres in England but has been rector of a parish in Belfast for 20 years.
Tim gives an overview of the political and cultural changes in the island of Ireland, and the situation in the relatively small but significant Anglican Church. "Secularism is marching forward" but there are opportunities for re-equipping congregations for mission in a new context. A foundational leader of Gafcon Ireland, Tim is looking to encourage bible-based witness within the Church of Ireland which is predominantly "relativist and inclusivist" in its theology.
See interview video here.
Scotland and Wales
Just one in three Scots now identify as Christian, reports the Glasgow Herald. Humanist Society Scotland claim this survey proves that Christianity should be excluded from public life, for example in schools, but Martin Ayers, Senior Minister at St Silas, Glasgow (Anglican Convocation Europe), says: "The historic mainline denominations may be experiencing decline, but there is an emergence all over Scotland of flourishing, vibrant, welcoming church communities. We are finding that many people in Scotland who are disconnected from the Christian faith feel disillusioned, and purposeless, and that there is an increasing openness to exploring Jesus' claim to be the way, the truth and the life; and to experiencing the hope he offers."
Similarly, though surveys show a decline in Christian belief and churchgoing in England and Wales, and erosion of Christian witness in the public square, there is still a well of appreciation for the work that churches do, from some politicians as well as at the grassroots. Evangelical Alliance have posted a report of the recent National Prayer Breakfast in Cardiff.
Crosslinks mission partner in Moldova, Bequi Innes, gave a radio interview on Radio 2 Jeremy Vine show, describing how her church and family are involved in offering welcome to refugees. Listen to the interview here.
War in Ukraine: How to help and what mistakes to avoid. An article from Evangelical Focus describes good principles employed by one European Christian NGO
The Church of England has produced a useful briefing including a "Toolkit" to help churches and individuals understand the issues and prepare to assist Ukrainians in different ways.
Cost of living squeeze
Price inflation, especially on fuel, will inevitably cause disposable income to shrink and real hardship for some. A new report suggests that this will could lead to reduced giving for churches. There will be increased calls on Christian communities to offer the love of Christ through practical help to long establish local residents as well as incoming refugees.
Looking forward to Easter

No. 16 Ohio State routs Minnesota in Big Ten opener
By Nicole Kraft - Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio State wasted no time staking its claim as the team to beat in the Big Ten.
Andre Wesson scored 16 points, Kaleb Wesson had 15, and No. 16 Ohio State beat Minnesota 79-59 on Sunday night in the conference opener for both teams.
C.J. Jackson and Musa Jallow each added 11 points, and Duane Washington Jr., and Kyle Young had 10 apiece to help the Buckeyes improve to 7-1.
"I'm proud of our guys' effort tonight against a really good Minnesota team," Ohio State coach Chris Holtmann said. "I do think we benefited from the fact that they probably had some tired legs from Friday night. But take nothing away from our guys' approach. Our defense set the tone."
Amir Coffey led Minnesota (6-2) with 19 points, and Dupree McBrayer added 13.
Cold shooting and bad rebounding put Minnesota in a big early hole. The Gophers failed to grab an offensive rebound in the first 10 minutes of the game.
"If you are not going to bring good physical basketball, you are not going to win in this league," Gophers coach Richard Pitino said. "(Ohio State is) really good at simple good basketball.
"They are really physical — tough and physical. And they impose it on you."
Ohio State dominated every aspect from scoring to rebounding, and overwhelmed its Big Ten rival from the start. Minnesota struggled to find the basket up close and at a distance, and never challenged.
FRESHMAN FROM AFAR
Ohio State freshman guard Duane Washington Jr. is 15 of 34 from 3-point range in eight games.
Minnesota senior forward Jordan Murphy is just one point away from 1,400 points to go with 1,000 rebounds in his career, which would make him the 11th player in Big Ten history to that milestone.
The Buckeyes played their first game without freshman guard Luther Muhammad in the lineup. He dislocated his shoulder against Syracuse and is out indefinitely. Ohio State coach Chris Holtmann said Muhammad continues to rehab, and there is no timetable on his return. Muhammad is averaging 27.9 minutes and 8.9 points.

Nukapedia
[No WikiNode]
Founded by:
Ausir, aka Paweł Dembowski
Wiki Size: 25,346 pages see stats...
(As of: 2018-05-29)
Nukapedia, a Fallout wiki.
Based on information from their About page:
This Fallout Wiki, named Nukapedia, is a Wikia games community wiki by – and for – the fans of Fallout series of video games.
In the Spring of 2005, a Fallout Wiki was set up by Ausir and DarkUnderlord, and was originally hosted by Duck and Cover, a Fallout fansite at the URL address wiki.DuckAndCover.cx (then Vault.DuckAndCover.cx) under the name 'The Vault'. It was later moved to a different server, but remained hosted by Taluntain - the host of Duck and Cover - at FalloutVault.com. As can be seen from Wikia talk pages and user contributions, there were also another nine users involved in shaping the wiki that were active in the early 2005 period. They were: Fez, Dan, Spazmo, Thinkpad, Mr. Teatime, Ekarderif, Mimir, Octotron and Senornacho.
In 2007, The Vault moved to Wikia, as the original host could no longer accept the constant attacks on the server by spammers and other attackers. Since the release of Fallout 3 in 2008, it became one of the most popular Wikia gaming wikis.
In November 2011, The Vault moved on to a different host, Curse, Inc. at FalloutWiki.com, and address under Fallout.Gamepedia.com, with both this host and the new site having similar and sometimes even identical content, with several old hands moving over to The Vaults new host. Those who remained within Wikia's variation subsequently took the new name Nukapedia (due to the term 'The Vault' being legally owned by its original creator Ausir), with both sites now developing largely independently of each other, although some contributors can still be found on both sites.

«Mathematical Reviews» — журнал, видаваний Американським математичним товариством (АМТ), який містить короткі конспекти та, в деяких випадках, оцінки багатьох статей з математики, статистики та теоретичної інформатики. АМТ також публікує відповідну онлайнову бібліографічну базу даних під назвою , яка містить електронну версію «Mathematical Reviews» та додаткову інформацію про цитування понад 3,5 мільйонів праць станом на 2018 рік.

Огляд
«Mathematical Reviews» заснував Отто Е. Нойгебауер в 1940 році як альтернативу німецькому часопису «Zentralblatt für Mathematik», який він заснував десятиліттям раніше, де нацисти почали цензурувати статті єврейських математиків. Метою нового журналу було дати відгуки на кожну з публікацій щодо математичних досліджень.

Станом на листопад 2007 року база даних «Mathematical Reviews» містила інформацію про понад 2,2 мільйони статей. Авторами рецензій є добровольці, яких зазвичай обирають редактори, з певним досвідом у галузі статті. «Zentralblatt für Mathematik» — єдиний комплексний ресурс цього типу. (Розділ «Математика» у «Реферативному журналі» доступний лише російською мовою і є меншим за обсягом та важкодоступним). Часто відгуки дають детальний виклад змісту статті, іноді з критичними коментарями рецензента та посиланнями на відповідні роботи. Однак, рецензентам не рекомендується критикувати статтю, оскільки автор не має можливості відповісти. Автореферат може бути цитований, коли неможливо дати незалежну рецензію або коли рецензент або редакція вважають автореферат адекватним. Коли твір написано незвичною мовою, коли це коротка стаття у томі конференції або коли вона виходить за межі основного кола відгуків, може бути надано тільки бібліографічну інформацію. Спочатку відгуки писалися кількома мовами, але згодом допускалася «лише англійська». Вибрані відгуки (так звані «зразкові відгуки» — ) АМТ також видавало як книгу, але цю програму припинена.

Інтернет-база даних

У 1980 році весь зміст «Mathematical Reviews» з 1940 року інтегровано в електронну базу даних. Зрештою вміст став частиною програми MathSciNet, офіційно запущеної в 1996 році. MathSciNet також має велику інформацію про цитування.

Математичний коефіцієнт цитування
«Mathematical Reviews» обчислює «математичний коефіцієнт цитування» (МКЦ) для кожного журналу. Як і коефіцієнт впливовості, це числова характеристика, яка вимірює частоту цитування журналу. МКЦ обчислюється підрахунком загальної кількості цитат у журналі, проіндексованих «Mathematical Reviews» протягом п'ятирічного періоду, та діленням її на загальну кількість статей, опублікованих журналом за цей п'ятирічний період.

За період 2012—2014 рр. «Mathematical Reviews» визначив п'ять найкращих журналів за МКЦ:

 Acta Numerica — МКЦ 8.14
 Publications Mathématiques de l'IHÉS — МКЦ 5.06
 Journal of the American Mathematical Society — МКЦ 4.79
 Annals of Mathematics — МКЦ 4.60
 Forum of Mathematics, Pi — МКЦ 4.54

«МКЦ всіх журналів» обчислюється врахуванням усіх журналів, проіндексованих «Mathematical Reviews» як єдиного мета-журналу, що дозволяє визначити, чи має конкретний журнал вищий, чи нижчий МКЦ, ніж середній. МКЦ всіх журналів за 2018 рік — 0,41.

Поточні математичні публікації
Поточні математичні публікації — це предметний покажчик у друкованому форматі, який публікував найновішу та майбутню математичну літературу, обрану та проіндексовану редакторами «Mathematical Reviews». Він охоплював період з 1965 року до припинення випуску 2012 року.

Refugee doctor potential 'wasted', says BMA
The talents of refugee and asylum-seeking doctors in the UK are largely being wasted, the British Medical Association (BMA) has claimed.
According to the doctors' group, only a minority of these doctors are currently working in the NHS.
It also claims that some hospitals are charging refugee doctors for clinical attachments - their only opportunity to gain work experience in the NHS.
And the BMA says many refugee and asylum-seeking doctors receive insufficient support in overcoming bureaucratic and financial barriers to practising in the NHS.
The BMA currently holds details of 1,199 refugee and asylum-seeking doctors in the UK.
Of these, 172 (14 per cent) are working in the NHS. Over one in five (23 per cent) of the 1,027 who are not currently working in the NHS are 'job-ready', having obtained the professional and linguistic exams needed to work in the UK.
Dr Edwin Borman, chairman of the BMA's refugee doctor liaison group, said: 'Refugee and asylum-seeking doctors have done a huge amount for this country, and thousands of NHS patients have benefited from their talents.
'Many more want to contribute to the country that has given them sanctuary but are struggling to overcome bureaucratic and financial hurdles. The NHS could be doing far more to help them gain the knowledge and experience they need to start helping UK patients.
'It's disgraceful that some hospitals are actually exploiting them by charging them for work experience.'

Q: How can i get the First Date and Last Date between selected months? How can i get the First Date and Last Date between selected months?
For example I Enter year 2015, and month 09  to 2016 08
The return values must be:
StartDate EndDate
20150901 20150930
20151001 20151031
20151101 20151130
20151201 20151231
20160101 20160131
20160201 20160229
20160301 20160331
20160401 20160430
20160501 20160531
20160601 20160630
20160701 20160731
20160801 20160831

I've found multiple queries that do the same but just for 1 inserted date. for example:
DECLARE @mydate DATETIME
SELECT @mydate = GETDATE()
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(25),DATEADD(dd,-(DAY(@mydate)-1),@mydate),101) AS Date_Value,
'First Day of Current Month' AS Date_Type
UNION

SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(25),DATEADD(dd,-(DAY(DATEADD(mm,1,@mydate))),DATEADD(mm,1,@mydate)),101) ,
'Last Day of Current Month'

But I couldn't find one that can do this for Between statement

A: I have two udf's which can be used independently or in conjunction.  They dynamically create date ranges with variable dateparts and/or increments.
Select * from [dbo].[udf-Create-Range-Date-Span]('2015-09-01','2016-08-01','MM',1)

DateR1                  DateR2
2015-09-01 00:00:00.000 2015-10-01 00:00:00.000
2015-10-01 00:00:00.000 2015-11-01 00:00:00.000
2015-11-01 00:00:00.000 2015-12-01 00:00:00.000
2015-12-01 00:00:00.000 2016-01-01 00:00:00.000
2016-01-01 00:00:00.000 2016-02-01 00:00:00.000
2016-02-01 00:00:00.000 2016-03-01 00:00:00.000
2016-03-01 00:00:00.000 2016-04-01 00:00:00.000
2016-04-01 00:00:00.000 2016-05-01 00:00:00.000
2016-05-01 00:00:00.000 2016-06-01 00:00:00.000
2016-06-01 00:00:00.000 2016-07-01 00:00:00.000
2016-07-01 00:00:00.000 2016-08-01 00:00:00.000

Now, I specifically use the cap so I can query data (including time) which are between the DateR1 and DateR2 and

However, with a little twist, you can change the output.  For example:
Select DateR1=cast(DateR1 as Date),DateR2=DateAdd(DD,-1,cast(DateR2 as Date)) from [dbo].[udf-Create-Range-Date-Span]('2015-09-01','2016-08-01','MM',1)

DateR1      DateR2
2015-09-01  2015-09-30
2015-10-01  2015-10-31
2015-11-01  2015-11-30
2015-12-01  2015-12-31
2016-01-01  2016-01-31
2016-02-01  2016-02-29
2016-03-01  2016-03-31
2016-04-01  2016-04-30
2016-05-01  2016-05-31
2016-06-01  2016-06-30
2016-07-01  2016-07-31

The two function are as follows:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[udf-Create-Range-Date] (@DateFrom datetime,@DateTo datetime,@DatePart varchar(10),@Incr int)

Returns
@ReturnVal Table (RetVal datetime)

As
Begin

If you're able to move to SQL Server 2012 or later, however, the query is much simpler:
Declare @FromYear   Int = 2015,
        @FromMonth  Int = 9,
        @ToYear     Int = 2016,
        @ToMonth    Int = 8

Declare @FromDate   Date    = DateFromParts(@FromYear, @FromMonth, 1),
        @ToDate     Date    = DateFromParts(@ToYear, @ToMonth, 1)

;With Date (Date) As
(
    Select  @FromDate Union All
    Select  DateAdd(Month, 1, Date)
    From    Date
    Where   Date < @ToDate
)
Select  Format(Date, N'yyyyMMdd')           As StartDate,
        Format(EoMonth(Date), N'yyyyMMdd')  As EndDate
From    Date
Option  (MaxRecursion 0)

A: Try this.  Its also a very small script.  I like the idea of the CTE from Siyual.  But this is much shorter.
DECLARE @inputYear INT = 2015,
@inputMonth INT = 09

SELECT DATEADD(MONTH, @inputMonth-1, DATEADD(YEAR, @inputYear-1900, 0)) AS FirstDayOfTheMonth,
DATEADD(s,-1, DATEADD(MONTH, @inputMonth, DATEADD(YEAR, @inputYear-1900, 0))) AS LastDayOfTheMonth

A: Your task is also possible using one single ANSI sql statement.
However, you need two tables ALL_YEARS and ALL_MONTHS that contain the used set of years and month.
E.g. if you consider possible years between 1900 and 2099, the table ALL_YEARS must contain the numbers between 1900 and 2099.
The table ALL_MONTHS must contain the numbers between 1 and 12.
Using these two tables, the statement looks as follows:
select            to_date('01.' || to_char(all_months.month_value) || '.' || to_char(all_years.year_value ), 'dd.mm.yyyy') first_day ,
       add_months(to_date('01.' || to_char(all_months.month_value) || '.' || to_char(all_years.year_value ), 'dd.mm.yyyy'), 1) -1 last_day
from   all_years,
       all_months
where  to_date('01.' || to_char(all_months.month_value) || '.' || to_char(all_years.year_value ), 'dd.mm.yyyy') between
        to_date('01.02.2014', 'dd.mm.yyyy') and
        to_date('01.07.2016', 'dd.mm.yyyy');

The output is as follows:
01.02.14    28.02.14
01.03.14    31.03.14
01.04.14    30.04.14
01.05.14    31.05.14
01.06.14    30.06.14
...
01.06.16    30.06.16
01.07.16    31.07.16

The best way to care for abandoned or orphaned children is to help them and their families before they become abandoned or orphaned. That's why SOS Children's Villages created its Family Strengthening Programs which provide support to disadvantaged families around the world with the goal of helping to prevent child abandonment.
SOS Children's Villages Family Strengthening Programs work directly with families and communities to help them to effectively protect and care for their children, in cooperation with local authorities and in collaboration with other charities on the ground.
SOS Children's Villages offers families support in the short, medium and long-term. They do this in order to not only meet the more immediate needs of families and vulnerable children, but also to support families to become self-sufficient and to reach the long-term goal of the local community having the ability to support vulnerable families without the assistance of SOS Children's Villages.

The game works in stages where the goal of each stage is to reduce the number of blocks on the board to three or less. You can move the one block removed from the rectangle around its perimeter using the wheel, and you can click to push it into the board, causing one block to pop out of the opposite end. To remove blocks from the board, you must arrange a horizontal or vertical line that stretches the entire length or width of the rectangle such that all blocks in that line are the same. A timer is on the right side of the board, which resets when you make a match as previously described, but if the timer fills, more blocks are added to the board (but if you need to add more blocks, you can press the space bar at any time). Should the board get so full of blocks that you would no longer have enough space to move the extra block around the perimeter of the rectangle, you lose.

Turkish commentators in general remain cautiously optimistic about the prospects of the peace process between the Turkish government and the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK). The leak of the records of the talks between the imprisoned PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan and a delegation from the pro-Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party (BDP) incensed Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who scolded the daily Milliyet for having publicized the records. However, there is not a widespread perception among the commentators in the media that the leak has actually damaged the peace process. While critics of the government hold that Erdoğan's reaction once again shows his determination to silence the media, commentators who support the government make the case that the issue cannot be treated as a matter of press freedom, suggesting that the opponents of the Justice and Development Party (AKP) are doing their utmost to sabotage the peace process.
The preliminary peace talks that are being conducted between Abdullah Öcalan, the imprisoned leader of the PKK, and the representatives of the Turkish state have occasioned many comments about the nature of Turkish nationalism. It is widely acknowledged that the possible solution of the longstanding conflict with the Kurds will ultimately alter the way Turkey is defined as a nation. Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has in unequivocal terms distanced himself from nationalism, saying that his government finds Turkish and Kurdish nationalism equally repugnant. Some commentators have objected, saying that Turkish nationalist sensitivities must be taken into account, while others question the conventional assumption that Turkish nationalism really is ingrained and impossible to overcome.
The emerging alliance of interests between the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) and the Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party (BDP) has led several Turkish commentators to express the worry that the solution of the Kurdish problem – unexpectedly – might go hand in hand with the imposition of an authoritarian system. Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has said that his party is prepared to act together with the BDP in order to put a new constitution (that would introduce a presidential system and simultaneously expand Kurdish rights) to a referendum, while the BDP leader Selahattin Demirtaş has stated that the AKP is the party that is closest to the BDP. Meanwhile, the focus of the debate over the Kurdish issue has started to shift to the question of the Turkish identity. Mümtaz'er Türköne, a leading Turkish nationalist intellectual, has stirred a major debate, including drawing a wave of reactions in social media, after a series of columns in which he has declared that Turkish nationalism as fulfilled its historic mission and has to be abandoned.
The reactions to the resumed talks between the Turkish government and Abdullah Öcalan, the imprisoned leader of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), are generally cautious among the Turkish commentators. What is especially notable is that several of those Turkish commentators who have earned a name as experts on the Kurdish issue are particularly circumspect, expressing severe doubts about the prospects of the resumed peace process; notably, they question the motives of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and point out that the Turkish government isn't offering any comprehensive solution to the Kurdish question, only talking about disarming the PKK. Although that secures the consent of the Turkish majority to having talks with Öcalan, an agreement that disregards the Kurds' demands will not be viable, they warn.


What do I need to consider when getting my groups transcribed?
The main consideration when getting transcriptions of your groups is to consider the transcriber. If multiple people are speaking at the same time, or have heavy accents, or simply the audio recording is of poor quality the transcriber will inevitably have problems in transcribing the focus group. Make sure only one person speaks at a time, there are no background noises and your recording is of a suitable quality (surprisingly some market research viewing facilities have terrible sound recordings).
A translator is someone that translates text where an interpreter is someone that interprets speech. Rarely you will find someone that is both a translator and interpreter as they have very different skill sets.
What is a market research viewing facility and why would I choose to use one?
A market research viewing facility is a purpose built venue for conducting focus group discussions and depth interviews. Generally the main difference between a viewing facility and a regular venue such as a hotel meeting room is that the viewing facility will have a one-way-mirror that allows the discussions/interviews to be unobtrusively viewed live by the clients in addition to having built in recording facilities to record the groups/interviews (whereas if a recording was required in a standard meeting room - although possible - it's a little more problematic in that the moderator will need to arrive earlier, set the camera up, ensure it's in a good position, and test the recording).
When using a general meeting room it's generally not advisable to have a client in the same room as the focus group respondents, as you usually find that the respondents can be put off by their attendance and will not be forthcoming with their opinions.

Selling Your Home? Don't Forget These 5 Things | Washington Area Real Estate :: Eng Garcia Grant & Co.
In addition to knowing how to make your home smell like fresh cookies before potential buyers arrive, you'll need to take these five steps when preparing to sell your home.
Particularly relevant if you're moving from a large home to a smaller condo or apartment, you'll need to find a way to get rid of your junk. There are a couple ways of doing this. You can hold a yard/garage sale, auction your items on eBay or Craigslist, donate lightly used items to Goodwill or Salvation Army, or use a quality junk removal service to haul away both unusable junk and landscaping debris.
Appearances matter. Prepping a house for sale doesn't just mean dusting up and sticking a sign out front. If you really want to increase the value of your home and make it an attractive buy, there are a variety of things you can do that are cost-effective and easy DIY projects.
You can try pressure-washing and painting the exterior, doing some gardening and landscaping to boost curb appeal, replacing cobweb-ridden lighting fixtures, or repaving a cracked driveway. Even if there are some inner matters in disrepair, like bad plumbing, it's critical for purposes of selling that the exterior is presentable. As DIY becomes more popular, more people are willing to overlook some bad plumbing (as long as you disclose it), if they know and see your place as livable.
As much as home improvements are essential to make, you should also be cautious not to over-upgrade because it can come off as gaudy and obvious, and you might not get the return on investment that you're hoping for.
Staging, the act of preparing a home of buyer foot traffic by decorating it, can feel a bit fraudulent because you're portraying an idealized version of what your house is, rather than what it's really like. But you shouldn't feel that way because 1) it's a common and expected practice; and 2) you're showing people what their potential home could be like for them (if they put in the time, effort, and attention).
Invest in good, bright, and warm lighting so your rooms look well lit.
Don't leave closets empty but do leave a small number of storage containers inside them to make the closets look bigger.
Remove unnecessary wires that make rooms look cluttered.
Your home is your home until it's not your home. When you're selling your home, stop letting it be your home. Sure, leave a few knick-knacks like photographs and paintings on the walls, but it's important to create an air of neutrality and let potential buyers project their own lives on your walls and in your rooms.
For some people who've lived in their place for a while, depersonalizing can mean taking a space that's precious to them, like a den or a bedroom, and taking out all the customize aspects that you yourself love. Our advice? Bring in a friend and have them tell you everything they wouldn't have bothered with and get rid of it or replace it with a rented alternative (at least for a photo session).
Even if you don't particularly like your neighbors, when you're selling, it's a good time to let them know. At worst, they'll talk up potential buyers to get you away from them!
Neighbors are invaluable resources for potential buyers, and buyers know that. Letting them know an unexpected number of unfamiliar cars and strangers will be coming through for a few weeks and maybe even asking them questions about the house and neighborhood helps benefit both the neighbor, the potential buyer, and you.
