Children today are much more comfortable using information technology than are those of previous generations. Many grow up playing video games offering strong visual and audio stimulation, instant feedback on decisions, and nonfinancial rewards for achievement, such as winning competitions, accumulating points, and being able to move to the next level of a game. The popularity of such games confirms what parents and good teachers know instinctively: children can acquire knowledge and learn new skills at seemingly phenomenal speeds when they are fully engaged in the learning experience.
Technology applied to learning, also known as digital learning or online adaptive instruction, has vast potential to transform schooling. Either by itself or "blended" with traditional classroom teaching, digital learning is building a record of results substantially superior to traditional teaching and potentially far cheaper when used on a large scale.
Online adaptive instruction can provide in one package the goals, activities, tests, and incentives needed to accelerate student learning. Students receive feedback as they move through a set of activities that the program customizes to their individual abilities. Many programs utilize algorithms grounded in psychological research on common errors students have made in face-to-face settings. Such research makes it possible to offer detailed cues for what to do next and prompt the user to move on to more difficult levels, or to repeat a lesson, perhaps from another perspective, when appropriate.
While there are obstacles to the spread of digital learning, cost is not one of them. The per-pupil costs of online schooling, which requires fewer teachers, have only recently been compared to that of traditional classroom instruction. According to a study by the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, full online learning on average costs about $4,300 annually less than traditional schooling, while the blended model saves about $1,100 per student per year . These cost savings are likely to increase over time as the technology improves and as educators gain experience in its use. Requiring nine rather than 12 years of schooling would reduce costs substantially more.
Digital learning is spreading quickly as parents, students, and educators recognize its transformative potential. Some obstacles need to be overcome, such as certification requirements that block entry into the teaching profession by talented and motivated individuals, seat-time and class-size requirements that make school schedules rigid and unable to accommodate computer lab sessions, and opposition from teachers' unions . A rapidly growing community of educators with experience using digital learning tools and literature describing best practices are available to reformers who want to accelerate this progress.
In 2011, the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), a respected membership organization for state legislators, adopted a model resolution endorsing the "ten elements" approach. In 2012, ALEC created and endorsed model legislation, the Statewide Online Education Act, that provides a detailed template for states to follow to remove roadblocks to expanding digital learning. The National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL), another organization of state legislators, also has endorsed expanding the use of digital learning and provides case studies of its successful implementation .
The Clayton Christensen Institute for Disruptive Innovation, formerly the Innosight Institute, is another good source of best practices. The nonprofit think-tank was founded by Harvard professor Clayton M. Christensen, author of the 2008 bestseller Disrupting Class: How Disruptive Innovation Will Change the Way the World Learns. The organization conducts original research on the cutting edge of digital learning, consults with elected officials, and provides speakers for public events. Researchers affiliated with the organization have created a "blended-learning taxonomy" that distinguishes among the various ways of blending digital learning with traditional schooling, such as Station Rotation, Lab Rotation, Flipped Classroom, Flex, A La Carte, Enriched Virtual, and Individual Rotation models.
Digital learning – the combination of online adaptive testing and instruction made possible by new technologies, software, and the internet – is beginning to transform K-12 education. It accelerates learning for a number of reasons, but an important one is because it makes rewards for learning more accurate, timely, and attuned to the interests and abilities of students. It promises to deliver the "creative destruction" required to substantially improve America's failing elementary and high-school system.
ClassDojo, Goalbook, and Funnix are three examples of the rapidly growing number of software programs available to educators to bring digital learning into the classroom. Rocketship Education, Khan Academy, Coursera, andUdacity illustrate the variety of new institutions that are using digital learning to transform traditional teaching methods. Given the pace at which software is improving and institutions are evolving, these examples may seem out of date in a few years.
Research shows substantial positive achievement effects of online education in pre-internet days and larger effects in recent years. More advanced technologies used on a much wider scale promise even larger achievement effects, lower costs, and a greater variety of incentives, curricula, and teaching methods from which parents, students, and educators can choose. Obstacles in the path to increased use of digital learning can be removed by parents and policymakers working together to adopt the policies recommended by pioneering leaders in the field, the Digital Learning Council, and other groups supporting this disruptive innovation – which will likely lead to far more effective education.

Thor Love and Thunder Trailer, Cast and Release Date, Download Thor Love & Thunder in Hindi
Love is in the air for the God of Thunder! Chris Hemsworth returns to the Marvel universe with the next Thor: Love and Thunder. And it will be very different from Kenneth Branagh's first Thor, over a decade ago. Thor Love and Thunder Full Movie will be dubbed in Hindi as well as in and other languages you can also watch it online via Netflix or Disney+ and can also download it from torrent sites via magnet link.
After the hardships in Avengers: Infinity and Endgame, Thor flew away with the Guardians of the Galaxy. The ex-god of the new Asgard will have his share of MCU Phase 4 history in the upcoming Thor: Love and Thunder. And to the delight of the fans, we will have a completely different story, composed of action and romance. Are you looking forward to the movie? We have unearthed for you the trailer, the cast and the release date of the fourth opus of Thor. Beware of information thunder!
For the moment, Marvel Studios has not yet unveiled an official trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder. But let's not lose patience: a teaser surely can't be far away. The trailer for recent MCU works are released 4-6 months before their official release. So expect to have our first trailer in early 2022.
Romance! Thor: Love and Thunder promises a "very romantic" scenario. We'll also see how the character has evolved since we last saw him at the end of Avengers: Endgame. Will he still be overweight on the Guardians of the Galaxy ship? Only the trailer will tell. The film's director Taika Waititi, however, said that Thor's overweight is already sorted out. This may explain the leaks of photos of Chris Hemsworth in such good shape on the web.
Thor: Love and Thunder will be based on the Mighty Thor comics by star Marvel writer Jason Aaron. In this comic, the god Odin loses the ability to lift the hammer Mjolnir. Jane Foster will take on the role of Thor, while simultaneously battling cancer as a human.
"It's amazing, it's full of emotion, love and thunder, and it features, for the first time, a female Thor. So, for us, there is only one person who could play this role. Only one," says Taika Waititi. He also adds "I've done crazy things in my life, I've lived, like, ten lives, but [Thor: Love and Thunder] is the craziest thing I've ever done".
If you want to see behind the scenes of the film, check out the photos in the Thor: Love and Thunder news Twitter account below.

Movie Cast
As usual, Marvel is booking a golden cast for its next film. We therefore find Chris Hemsworth in the role of Thor. Tessa Thompson returns as Valkyrie. Natalie Portman portrays the character of Dr. Jane Foster/Thor. Christian Bale is Gorr the butcher god. Jaime Alexander is behind the character of Sif, Taika Waititi as Korg and Russell Crowe as Zeus.
On the Guardians of the Galaxy side, we obviously find Chris Pratt as Star-Lord. Dave Bautista is still Drax. Karen Gillan returns as Nebula. Pom Klementieff will portray Mantis, and Sean Gunn will play Kraglin.
But the most exciting news in this fourth installment of Thor is the return of Natalie Portman as Dr. Jane Foster. For those unfamiliar with the character, she's the astrophysicist who partnered with Thor in the first two movies. There's a big change though: this time, Foster can lift and use Mjolnir. She also holds her own divine powers…
The release date for Thor: Love and Thunder is currently July 8, 2022 . The film will debut in theaters before arriving on Disney+ at least 45 days later.

It's no secret that many marijuana lovers believe that having a puff before turning on a favorite album or settling in to watch a movie can make the experience just that much better, but why is that? The answer is somewhat paradoxical, according to Dr. Ethan Russo—a cannabis researcher from Prague, who says it all has to do with how cannabis affects memory.
"One thing we know well is that THC produces short-term memory impairment…when somebody's used cannabis and they say they've lost their train of thought, that's one of the known effects," Russo told The GrowthOp.
As Russo explains, THC reduces a person's ability to focus on the big picture. This in turn allows for more focus on the finer details. And once you start zeroing in on the subtleties of a painting, song or movie you will probably understand it in a much different way.
"Altered states of consciousness can offer a different experience and, therefore, a different perspective on the source of stimulation," Russo said. "Cannabis can sharpen senses for certain activities…people say they've never 'heard it' or 'seen it' that way before."
And when speaking of visual art more specifically, cannabis may enhance the experience in other ways. Some studies have shown that consuming cannabis can improve a person's night vision, which might increase their ability to pick out details in an image.
"The retina is very rich in cannabinoid receptors," said Russo.
Dr. Anjan Chatterjee, a researcher who studies neruoaestetics—the field interested in how people perceive 'aesthetic' experiences—says that THC might also be interacting with the parts of the brain most active when a person is taking in art.
"If the work is colorful, parts of the brain that engage with color are activated," explains Dr. Chatterjee. "If there's motion, even in something abstract like a Jackson Pollock that showcases 'movement,' the motion centers in the occipital cortex are involved with that. And those perceptions differ when you're looking at something static like a Piet Mondrian."
When THC is ingested neurons in your brain begin to fire more quickly, giving you that racing mind feeling. It's possible that this encourages creative thinking, and may strengthen the affects art has on the different parts of the brain that Chatterjee discusses.
We still don't really know why cannabis makes some people feel more creative, but it doesn't seem to be some kind of placebo effect either. And while smoking up might not ensure you become the next big thing in the art world, it might just help you finally understand modern art.


SPRINGHILL – Springhill Police arrested a woman for allegedy driving while intoxicated after she was seen coming out of McDonalds, turning up a bottle of what appeared to be an alcoholic beverage.
According to reports, Officer Franklin Evans and Sgt. Leon Thirdgill responded to a dispatch regarding a white Camaro leaving McDonalds.
The vehicle was located at R&B's Carwash in Springhill, and they made contact with the driver, identified as 30-year-old Chaslee Nichole Duck, of the 900 block of 1st Street SE Street. Police say she had a bottle with a long neck in her arms, and a field sobriety test was conducted.
She performed poorly on the field sobriety test, police say, and she was placed under arrest for driving while intoxicated. A search of the vehicle revealed approximately four grams of suspected marijuana in a brown and white striped bag, and another bottle of suspected liquor in the back seat.
She was arrested for the additional offenses of possession of Schedule I CDS (marijuana) and open container.
She was transported to police headquarters where she reportedly submitted to a breath test. Police say her sample returned a blood alcohol content level of .147 percent.
Bond was set at $2,909.

EDM number 1038 in 2017-19, proposed by Douglas Chapman on 08/03/2018.
Categorised under the topics of Coal and Industrial relations.
That this House remembers the start of the miners' strike in March 1984 when five pits were announced for closure as part of the Government's restructuring of the coal industry; acknowledges the hardship and struggle endured by the miners and their families who faced losing their livelihoods; notes that the decline of the British coal industry had a devastating impact on mining communities, including those of the West Fife villages, in particular the closure of the Valleyfield Pit which made almost 1,000 workers redundant; recognises, on International's Women's Day, the particular impact on women in mining communities who were often at the heart of supporting their families and communities under very strained circumstances; further recognises the bravery of the striking miners across the UK and the maltreatment many of them were reportedly subjected to such, as those at Orgreave in the summer of 1984; and calls on the Government to reconsider launching an inquiry into the events at Orgreave to ensure that those responsible of any malpractice are held to account for their actions.


Sigmund Freud holds a special place among the most known psychiatrists of the twentieth century. Freud was the father of the psychoanalytic school of psychology. His works marked a new era and changed the development of psychological science in the last century. His theories helped to find the answers on the most important questions about human personality, unconscious, emotions, behavior, self-perception, inner conflicts, the reasons of spiritual imbalances and illusory imagination about own self, and so on.

How to Stop Beating Yourself Up for Messing Up
Medically reviewed by Scientific Advisory Board — By Margarita Tartakovsky, MS on October 12, 2016
We tend to beat ourselves up for all sorts of things—for making a bad decision 2 years ago. For making a rude remark. For not going back to school when we were younger. For getting into debt. For staying in a toxic relationship for too long. For bombing an interview for a job we so desperately wanted. For not being productive. For being too sensitive. For misspelling a word. For giving a boring presentation.
Basically, for so many of us, the list is endless.
And, of course, we beat ourselves up for days, months, years. An insult-fueled record that plays on repeat.
Rachel Dack's clients often turn a small mistake, poor decision or bad behavior into a permanent failure. They give "it way too much power over their worth, and they struggle to see it as an isolated experience." An error becomes "I always fail" or "I never do anything right" or "My life is ruined," she said.
Some clients believe they must be ruthless with their mistakes to motivate themselves. Yet the opposite happens: "Unfortunately, this sets them up for a cycle of being stuck and discouraged as they devalue themselves instead of harnessing the motivation they seek," said Dack, LCPC, NCC, a psychotherapist and relationship coach who specializes in supporting clients with low self-esteem, anxiety, personal growth and intimacy issues.
People also worry that showing their humanity will hurt them personally and professionally, said Laura Reagan, LCSW-C, an integrative trauma therapist in private practice outside of Baltimore. "It doesn't really matter what the mistake was, because the part that makes it feel intolerable is that they allowed themselves to show a chink in their armor."
Maybe your fear of mistakes originates from childhood or young adulthood. Maybe you were punished, berated or judged. Instead of learning that mistakes are inevitable, you began feeling shame, Dack said. So, today, you try to avoid criticism at all costs. Your "need to be loved, accepted and valued can create unrealistic expectations, a need for perfectionism and a harsh inner critic."
But whatever your past or views on mistakes, you can learn to ease up on yourself. Below, Dack and Reagan shared five valuable strategies.
Direct compassion toward your inner critic.
Reagan believes self-compassion is the best way to cope with a roaring inner critic. Specifically, she suggested taking a deep breath and asking your inner critic: "What do you want me to know? What do you need?" For instance, maybe a part of you is scared that you won't be liked or you'll lose your job over one too many mistakes.
You also can check in with your body for feelings of fear, sadness, worry, self-doubt or any other emotions, she said.
Then talk to yourself with the same compassion as someone you love. "I like to think of what a small child would need to hear for comfort when feeling those uncomfortable emotions, and say that."
Reagan shared this example concerning work: "I know it's scary; you're afraid you will lose your job. It's OK to be afraid." (You might be surprised to learn that honoring your feelings—and comforting yourself—actually lessens their intensity, she added.)
See slip-ups as growth spurts.
"View your mistakes or poor decisions as opportunities for growth, self-discovery, reflection and learning," Dack said. For instance, her client was beating herself up about staying in a relationship with a toxic partner. She tried to end the relationship many times. But she still kept texting him and hoping he'd change—which deepened her shame.
When she started looking at her actions as an opportunity for self-discovery and growth, she gained vital insights: She realized that she was trying to protect herself from starting over, being single and possibly being rejected by future partners. She also found it comforting that she knew exactly what to expect from him.
Slowly, she started examining what she wanted in a partner and practicing being open and available. "She also owned her needs and took accountability, leading her to the empowered woman she is today," Dack said.
Get realistic.
Trying to do everything "right" or perfectly is emotionally and physically exhausting—and unrealistic (i.e., impossible). Which means we'll be spending a lot of time feeling discouraged and disappointed.
Instead, Dack suggested examining your time, motivation and effort. Remind yourself "that goals take time, consistency and energy to achieve."
To get realistic, get very specific and plan out your steps, she said. Remove the words "always" and "never" from your vocabulary. Replace "shoulds" with values-based language.
For instance, Dack said, you'd change "I should say yes to all social plans if I want my friends to like me" to "I will balance my social life with my own needs and downtime" or "I am committed to saying no when I am feeling overwhelmed, and it is important for me to take care of myself" or "I will do my best to be honest with my friends about my needs."
Observe more. Judge less.
Dack suggested using mindfulness to practice observing our thoughts and feelings without judgment or attachment. Set a timer for 5 minutes, and focus on your breathing. "Use your breath as an anchor and allow thoughts and feelings to pass like water in a flowing stream or a train on a track."
If you notice that you're judging yourself or attaching to a thought or feeling, return to your breath. Plant your feet firmly into the ground to come back to the moment.
Practice self-care.
When you're exhausted, constantly striving and forcing yourself to work harder (and harder), you not only make more mistakes; your inner critic gets louder, said Reagan, also the host of Therapy Chat podcast. It shows up more frequently than when you're treating yourself with compassion, she said.
According to Reagan, practicing self-care can look like: listening to your favorite music; taking walks in nature; resting when you need to rest; connecting with supportive people; making time to dance and play; and getting enough sleep.
You might be all-too used to beating yourself up when you mess up—whatever your slip-up, decision or behavior. Over time, it might even feel as automatic as breathing.
Thankfully, this is something you can change. You can slowly start to be self-compassionate. You can use your actions to learn helpful lessons. You can remind yourself that you are human and imperfect. And that's OK. And you can keep taking tender care of yourself.

GETTING IT IN THE NECK BECAUSE YOU ARE GREEK
February 28, 2016 March 2, 2016 ~ johnmurraywritinginkythnos
This blog posts every Monday, but my daughter Ione is visiting from Leeds, UK, and there will be no new post until Monday 14th March (in case you are wondering it appears today 28th February, a day early, as I am very busy tomorrow). You can always contact me about anything, especially Bargain Online Fiction Tuition at john@writinginkythnos.com. Among others, I have mentored the Cumbrian writer Clare Sambrook whose novel 'Hide and Seek', published by Canongate, went on to be sold in numerous languages before publication
You probably read midweek that the Austrian government convened a meeting of the Balkan states, to discuss their joint fears of being swamped by refugees from the Middle East and elsewhere. They opted not to invite Greece, an outrageous and provocative act that no doubt they thought they could get away with, Greeks being a species of European pariah aka children who will not grow up and do adult things like pay taxes and so forth. Rightly incensed, Greece duly withdrew its ambassador for 'discussions'. Talk about a nation state being between a rock and a hard place. Russia, and the US and its allies, dropping bombs on citizens like there is no tomorrow, between them are making life impossible for thousands of Syrians, and the USA plus allies are doing the same thing in Iraq. These sad and innocent folk are going to keep on flooding out no matter what, they refuse to stay in an incendiary hell with their children. They will all head west via Greece, it's the only feasible way to go, and Greece is humane enough to let them in for their transit onwards. But Austria and the rest would wish the Greeks to return most of them whence they came, and because they won't do that, they are keeping Greece out of their summit talks. So now Macedonia (Ta Skopje if you are a patriotic Greek)has closed the border at Idomeni, and because no one wants to go through Albania which borders with unsympathetic Montenegro and Macedonia, effectively Greece is now like a pressure cooker. It has all these desperate folk flooding in, in their uncontrollable thousands, and the likes of Slovenia and Croatia will now only permit a trickle to make their way through. You'd think Croatia at least would remember a mere 20 odd years ago, when they were stuck in a genocidal inferno themselves, but alas it didn't teach them much about a sympathy that is universal as opposed to partisan.
Meanwhile if you are unlucky enough to be a Dodecanese island near Turkey, you get it in the neck big style. I was in tiny Agathonisi in May 2002, well before any refugee crisis, and it had about five tourists and a hundred population and that was it. Now it is swollen with refugees and guess what, like the little island of Lampedusa, off Malta, it cannot cope. Greece was recently in serious crisis over EU membership, and now as well as all its economic problems and currency controls, it has exhausted refugees and their kids decanted from the heaving islands, dossing down in Piraeus or in Plateia Victoria, and making the world weep. But the overall dynamic, the endgame, is very simple and very cruel, and doesn't fool, anyone, especially the Greeks. Whatever the Greeks do about the problem, they are always going to get it wrong, and will always be the fall guys. So much for glorious European solidarity and the EU. The only type on offer from Austria, Hungary, Macedonia etc, is that which excludes nearly all of those who are non-European.
On a lighter note, like to hear a story about someone on a Greek island who is colourfully bonkers? I was talking to Kostas this week who has a cafe in Loutra and was up in the port on an unwelcome mission. Someone had been reckless and done him a grave injury, and the fact the circumstances were farcical did not ameliorate his considerable indignation. Kostas is in his late 50s, stocky, well read, an Anglophile, an independent thinker, divorced with two sons and he keeps his cafe open 12 months of the year. Loutra in winter is more or less a ghost town, so most of the time his place is completely empty. That suits Kostas fine, as he is busy as an autodidact with his laptop all day, researching his idol Kazantzakis, until perhaps the odd pal turns up and he stops to chat. There are only about half a dozen of these mates, and most of them have relocated to the Hora for the winter, so drive down specially for the high quality kaffeeklatsch. However one permanent Loutra inhabitant, is a decidedly eccentric and unarguably handsome woman called Maria. She too is mid 50s, also divorced, but in her case minus any children. She is a very good hairdresser and in summer is run off her feet with all the yachties seeking her expert attentions. Now she has no customers whatever, and she fills her days with swimming, sunbathing and stopping to talk to anyone who will indulge her hobby horses and pet obsessions. She comes from one of the obscurer North Aegean islands, and is fanatical about the superiority of all islands over the mainland, so much so she claims that island supermarkets work out cheaper than Athenian ones, which is palpable nonsense. Ferry transport costs alone make that an impossibility. Maria can talk for what seems hours about comparative prices of potatoes in five Kythnos supermarkets, and five comparable establishments on the mainland. She monologues torrentially and if you try to get a word in edgeways, you will fail. Kostas is her ideal listener, as he sits there pretending to listen, but is probably just counting her teeth, not at all a whimsical activity as she has a phenomenal number of them all gleaming white in her attractive if often sullen face.
Today however he was very busy, actually engaged in writing a learned article about Kazantzakis for an Athens literary magazine. It was commissioned, and he was being paid for it, and there was a deadline, and he had no time to chat. He spelled this out as kindly as he could to Maria, but she was so thick-skinned he'd have had to stand up and bawl, Bugger off, North Aegean baby! and have the same thing written in letters a foot high in red paint on a piece of flip chart paper to get her to understand. Nevertheless Kostas persisted at his studious literary task, and turned his back on her, and also poured himself a glass of tsipuro to steady his nerves against her stanchless flood of words. So much so, that even Maria noticed he was playing hard to get when it came to any amicable chat, and so it was she perversely decided to resort to a teasing playfulness. She happened to have a bag of oranges with her, just given to her by a farmer friend from Ag Sostis. Incredibly she chose to toss one of these at Kostas's back by way of drawing his attention. Luckily she was such a bad shot it went wide of his table, and landed on a distant seat cushion, so he didn't even know she was hurling those fruity and doubtless succulent torpedos.
The second orange came a few seconds later, and it hit him with force on the right elbow…
Kostas turned in amazement and beheld grinning, impish Maria hurling a third citron grenade in his direction. Naturally enough he exclaimed an obscenity, gamo to (fuck it!) and then that third aeronautic missile landed square on his glass of hooch and sent it flying all over his laptop!
At that point he went totally berserk, not least because his laptop emitted an electrical hiccup and promptly packed in, as raw grape brandy is a bit like foaming Coca Cola when it comes to metals and rapid astringence. Impressively, Maria kept on laughing with blithe unconcern, mainly because she didn't know much about computers and assumed there would be no ill effects. Once Kostas started bellowing horribler obscenities, she stiffened, and resentfully announced that of course she'd pay for any repairs done by Antonis up in the port. Kostas bawled it might not be fucking repairable, and she tossed her beautiful auburn mane, but wasn't remotely floored by that either. She told him impatiently, oh what a fuss of a man you are! she'd buy him a brand new laptop if need be. He was tempted to rant at her then, before throwing her out of the cafe, and inform her that all his important writer's work was on that laptop and might not be recoverable and that would be catastrophic. But the heartening truth was he obsessively copied everything onto multiple USB sticks and nothing that really mattered would have been lost, thank God above.
"All the same," he mused to me in the Glaros. "That beats all. Flinging fucking oranges at a glass of brandy, and just because she wants to fucking talk. I wonder if she'd had a bag of potatoes, would she have done the same? Or rodis/pomegranates? Those buggers with their funny tops can sting like fuck if you get one across the earhole, re. Too fucking right they can, vre."

The Prada eyewear collection is primarily composed of cellulose acetate, because that offers a robust palette of colors to play with. The designs are mostly large, which is also convenient as most of the models will accommodate progressive lenses. The large eye shapes are intended to shout out "fashion", and not designed to hide, meld, or play nicely with the face. These are big, bold designs that require the onlooker to take notice and appreciate Italian fashion and craftsmanship in all of its splendor and wonder. While the blocky rectangular shapes are very prevalent in the collection, they are interspersed with a few cat eye designs, some Swarovski Crystal-encrusted designs, and a few metal frames, just to keep things interesting. The cat-eyes are a nod to classicism – as are the Wayfarer and Sidewinder lookalikes – differentiated by the Prada logo on the temples, and the better quality plastics used in manufacture.
Prada is one of the world's largest and best known design houses, based in Milan, and founded in 1913 by Mario Prada. The Prada family manufactured and designed primarily leather goods all the way through the 1970's, still a small company. In the late 1970's, Miuccia Prada began expanding the line under an image of "anti-status" as a response to the super-status positioning of Louis Vuitton, and this originality developed Prada into the super powerhouse it is today. The company grew to $674 million in sales by the end of the 1990s, but then became interested in purchasing other brands similar to the LVMH model. Prada began acquiring interests in Gucci, Fendi, Helmut Lang, Jill Sander, and Miu Miu. Although the company was growing rapidly, it was still in debt. By 2015, Prada sales were approximately $3.8 billion.


Elke Skewe Pot is a South African, Afrikaans-language television sitcom created by Meren Reddy, Joshua Rous and Luke Rous following four women from different worlds who work for an online matchmaking site called "Elke Skewe Pot", where other people regularly find partners.
Yet even though they have access to their own technology, true love still eludes them.
Sandra Koekemoer (Franci Swanepoel in Season 1, Hélène Truter in Season 2) is the 45-year-old owner of Elke Skewe Pot". Since a young age she has had the gift of matching perfect couples, and has already made "forever and ever" a reality for many couples.
The world has changed and, with the help of technological advances, Sandra has transformed her talent into a profitable dating website. Her team is small but clean.
Wilma de Bruin (Marisa Drummond), her right hand, is a 38-year-old, sexually-injured perfectionist who is trying her best to get off the shelf before her expiration date arrives.
Lulu van Heerden (Carien Botha) is 25. She is the secretary / private detective / man-eater. Even though she's overweight, it's never stopped her finding a man.
Finally, the newest member of the team is Anna Fourie (Carine Rous), a 31-year-old blogger who helps clients to express their more positive features. In other words, she lies for a living by brushing up online profiles so they are more tempting than in reality.
Everyone's life is made difficult by the curious neighbour, Tannie Tossie (Annette Engelbrecht), who is determined to build her own fame with her tiny biltong shop, located right next to ESP.
After a day's hard work, the place is to be the bar and restaurant on the ground floor, where most of ESP's events take place and where Benny Botha (Hannes Brümmer), the attractive yet somewhat hipster bartender, works as a self-described doctor.
Created by Meren Reddy, Joshua Rous and Luke Rous, Elke Skewe Pot is produced by Rous House Productions, with Marguerite Albrecht serving as supervising producer for kykNET. The head writer and director is Joshua Rous, with storyliners Henrietta Gryffenberg, Anne Hirsch, Meren Reddy and Lize Vosloo. Original music is by Andrew Baird.
Lockdown 3 shakes things up on Mzansi Magic, Elke Skewe Pot returns to kykNET and Roast Battle SA 2 tickles Comedy Central.

School Library Journal (04/01/18)
School Library Journal - 04/01/2018 Gr 4–8—While the topic is an evergreen favorite, outdated visuals limit this set's appeal. Black-and-white photos superimposed on colored backgrounds are reminiscent of decades-old volumes already in circulation. However, the content covered is fascinating and could spark fiery discussion on sexism and inequality. All of the featured scientists had to overcome gender biases, and for many women, that also included breaking color and age barriers. Readers will be surprised to learn that computing in the early 1880s, the invention of a remote control submarine torpedo during World War II, and the 1969 Apollo 11 space mission were successful because of the contributions of women. In addition, the nonfiction text features will also aid in classroom/research report use. VERDICT Despite excellent content, these volumes will not catch the eye of even the most eager readers. - Copyright 2018 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.


Jeff Harrison: So in this case, Dr. Chen, we're talking about another one. The last one we talked about visual reaction time. Now we're talking about muscle movement time.
Dr. Chein: Faster. … That's as fast as can do.
Jeff Harrison: Oh. Got you.
Dr. Chein: Age. The younger they are … That's the muscle movement time.
Jeff Harrison: So pretty simple. Straight away.
Dr. Chein: Very straight forward. It's a combination of muscle and nerves. It determines your biological age. The older you are, the slower you are. After you perform that, again, the computer fits you with that thousand people, whoever that was, and then tells you your biological age is that by this test.
Jeff Harrison: So we can start seeing that in, let's say, normal day-to-day functions with not getting the timer turned off fast enough, getting something off the stove before it burns, turning the water off before it flows into the floor because of it's overfilled.
Dr. Chein: Any type of accident would have to do with movement.
Dr. Chein: Muscle movement, because an accident gives you either some kind of signal, either visual, auditory or step into the hole. The next thing that takes over is your muscle movement to get out of it. That's our instinctual avoidance of danger. When your defective with that, you go right into the danger because you can't get out.
Jeff Harrison: Is that something that, again, this doesn't just go with what we do with our hands, but also the tripping. Instead of tripping and recovering, there's tripping and falling.
Dr. Chein: Absolutely. Tripping and falling.
Jeff Harrison: Because your muscle reaction time is moving slow, so you can't get your feet underneath you.
Dr. Chein: You see people trip and never fall. Some people you see, "Oh, oh" but they didn't fall.
Dr. Chein: Because they have a fast muscle movement time.
Jeff Harrison: Again, these kind of things, can they be reversed? Can they be improved if we see, let's say you do this in this particular patient, 64 but really their biological age is 72. So you can say that in that specific thing, if there's no nerve damage, no damage, it's just aging, can it be turned around?
Dr. Chein: Absolutely, it can be turned around. Even when there's nerve damage, it can be turned around.
Jeff Harrison: Oh really? Okay. All right.
Jeff Harrison: Very good. Anything else you'd like to talk about when it comes to muscle movement time?
Dr. Chein: That's about it.
Jeff Harrison: Perfect. Well, Dr. Chein, thanks for joining us. Again people, if you have a loved one or you yourself notice that your reaction time- muscle movement reaction time, has started to slow down, time to reach out to Dr. Chein. Don't take any time, do it now, reach out to Dr. Chein? What's your phone number, Dr. Chein?
Jeff Harrison: Perfect. Thanks for joining us. I'm Jeff Harrison.
Jeff Harrison: For another episode of Living to 120 and Beyond.


On Wednesday, Cramer unveiled what he's calling the Mad Money Wind Index, or Windex. It's a basket of 11 stocks that operate in his new favorite alternative-energy business, one he said could meet 30% of the U.S.'s demand by 2040.
Just to be clear, Cramer isn't recommending any of these stocks. He's just putting together the Windex as a gauge for what he calls a major up and coming trend.
All of Cramer's previous calls on wind power made the cut: Trinity , Otter Tail , Owens-Corning , Woodward Governor , MasTec , Thomas & Betts and Kaydon . These stocks have beaten the S&P 500 by an average of 9.7% since he picked each one.
But there are four other names, most likely new to Mad Money viewers, that Cramer's using to round out the Windex.
Ameron deals mainly in water pipeline systems but also has a wind-tower manufacturing business that could double in size this year.
The three other stocks all trade over the counter here in the States. Vestas, the largest play on the global wind market, Cramer called it, that makes wind turbines and towers; Broadwind Energy, a wind-farm construction and infrastructure play that also makes wind tower; and Clipper Wind Power, a turbine manufacturer based in the United Kingdom.
The catalyst here is the Wind Power 2008 conference in Houston during the first week of June. Eight out of the 11 Mad Money Windex stocks will be there. Cramer's expecting the meeting to drive more interest in wind power and bring some publicity to the growing business these companies are doing in the sector.
Again, these aren't recommendations. Think of this group as a sector snapshot that will inform investors of the growth, or lack thereof, in wind power.
Besides, if you ran out and bought all these stocks you'd be breaking the first rule of Cramerica: diversification. Don't be that guy.


UFC president Dana White has hinted at a shock contract extension for Mark Hunt, saying of the controversial Sydney slugger: "He's a little nutty ... but we're in the fight business".
In yet another twist to their ongoing, and incredibly public, feud, White has told The Daily Telegraph he is considering an extension for Hunt, 44, should the heavyweight win his next fight — a UFC Moscow headliner on September 15 against homegrown favourite and No.11 heavyweight contender Aleksei Oleinik.
UFC officials have announced Hunt will face Oleinik when the UFC debuts in the Russian capital.
Initially, it was thought Hunt would only fight twice more inside the Octagon this year, with UFC Adelaide in December seeming like the perfect card for an emotional farewell.
Indeed, White's suggestion the "Super Samoan" could now continue well into 2019 will surprise even the fighter given he remains involved in an ugly court battle with not only the UFC president, but his fight company and American superstar Brock Lesnar.
The drama has been playing out since UFC 200, almost two years ago.
White also banned Hunt from fighting last October after the cult favourite admitted in a Players Voice article to slurring his words, struggling to sleep and forgetting "something I did yesterday".
Yet when asked if the heavyweight currently ranked No.8 was now on the last stages of his Farewell Tour, White said: "Listen, Mark Hunt has been a little nutty, but he's also a fighter who has done some amazing things.
"And we're in the fight business.
Should he earn a new deal — which would most likely be on a one or two-fight basis moving forward — Hunt could become the oldest UFC fighter to win inside the Octagon.
Currently, the record is held by American great Randy Couture, who won a heavyweight title aged 43 and, three years later, beat James Toney at UFC 118.
Back in 2011, Hunt went on a four-fight win streak which then culminated with a heavyweight interim title fight with Junior Dos Santos — which he lost via second round KO.
More recently, however, he has dropped two of his past three, plus that contentious "no contest" with Lesnar.
Hunt also made headlines in October 2017 after being sidelined by White for showing potential signs of concussion.
After learning of the ban, Hunt slammed both the decision and White in several expletive-laden social media posts.
He was then required to fly to Las Vegas for extensive brain injury testing — all of which he passed — and was eventually cleared to start fighting again.
Regardless, Hunt remained so convinced his UFC career was over he had already began sourcing potential rivals should he make a switch to boxing.
