BMW confirms iX3 electric SUV isn't coming to the US
Bengt Halvorson March 10, 2020 Comment Now!
After the i3 hatchback, BMW's first widely available fully electric vehicle for the U.S. was supposed to be the iX3, a fully electric version of the German automaker's top-selling vehicle, the X3 SUV.
However BMW has now confirmed—as initially reported by Automotive News—that that the made-in-China iX3 will not be sold in the U.S.
The iX3, with its 74-kwh battery pack, likely won't have a U.S. EPA-rated range of 300 miles, let alone 200 miles. It also was conceived only with rear-wheel drive, at a time when other models in its size class, like the Tesla Model Y, Ford Mustang Mach-E, or Jaguar I-Pace, consider dual-motor all-wheel drive to be a selling point.

It likely also didn't help that the U.S. still hasn't yet committed to a national policy that supports electric vehicles, and that trade and tariff negotiations with China remain at the interim stage. It also serves BMW's interest to put as many electric vehicles out to the European market as possible, with the aim to cut its fleet CO2 emissions below 95 grams per kilometer.
The decision represents an about-face for the automaker, which as recently as December confirmed to Green Car Reports that it still expected the iX3 to arrive in the U.S. prior to the larger iNext, due in 2021.
BMW Concept i4
BMW revealed last week that the upcoming i4 electric sedan, about the size of the Tesla Model 3, will deliver 270 miles of range in the EPA test cycle from its 80-kwh battery. It plans to start production of that model in Munich in 2021, with U.S. deliveries potentially starting by the end of the year.
BMW North America confirmed that the X5-sized iNext will arrive to the U.S. before the i5 though—in mid-2021—and it stated that until the company begins production of the iX3 it won't be able to provide further insight on why the model isn't planned for the U.S.
The move to funnel the iX3 toward Europe instead parallels the decision made by Mercedes-Benz, which decided late last year, delaying the U.S. introduction of the EQC electric SUV to early 2021 at the earliest.

Доктор мед. Ърнест Еймъри Кодман e американски хирург пионер.

Има принос в анестезиологията, радиологията, операцията на язва на дванадесетопръстника, ортопедичната онкология, хирургията на рамото и изучаването на резултатите от медицинското лечение

Биография
Роден е на 30 декември 1869 година в Бостън, Масачузетс, САЩ. Завършва Медицинското училище на Харвард през 1895 г. и изпълнява длъжност на стажант-лекар в Масачузетската обща болница. Той се присъединява към хирургичния екип на Масачузетската болница и става член на факултета на Харвард. Но през 1914 болницата му отказва да даде поле за осъществяване на неговото изследване за оценяване на компетентността на хирурзите и той дори губи своите привилегии на член от екипа. Д-р Кодман открива своя собствена болница (която нарича "Болница на крайните резултати"), за да осъществи измерването на представяното лечение и на целите за подобряването му, които той смята за важни. За да подкрепи своята "теория за крайния резултат" д-р Кодман прави публични крайните резултати от леченията в неговата собствена болница в публикувана частно книга "Изследване на болничната ефективност" (A Study in Hospital Efficiency). От 337 пациенти, които са изписани между 1911 и 1916 г. д-р Кодман записва и публикува 123 грешки.

Д-р Кодман има интереси в областта на качеството на здравеопазването, което го кара да застане начело на субсидирането на Американския колеж за хирурзи и неговата Програма за болнична стандартизация. Второто в крайна сметка се превръща в Съвместна комисия по акредитация на организациите в здравеопазването в САЩ.

Кодман също така е пионер в областта на публичното здраве, изучавайки резултатите от болничното лечение и опитвайки се да определи как те могат да бъдат подобрени. Кодман пише:

Умира на 23 ноември 1940 година на 70-годишна възраст.

Признание
През 1996 г., в памет на д-р Кодман, Съвместната комисия публикува книгата "Кодман: Изследване на болничната ефективност" ("Codman: A Study in Hospital Efficiency"). Комисията също така учредява награда "Ърнест Кодман" за използването на измервания на резултатите като средство за подобряване на качеството и сигурността на грижата за пациента.

Captains' Corner | Vice Captain, Noah Stevens
Terrace Shop
I trust that the shorter week last week provided an opportunity to take a breath as we prepare for the second half of Term 3.
Last week I shared the sad news of the passing of Simon Hatton, GT 2017 brother of Joshua, GT 2015 and Andrew (Year 12). The Terrace Family continues to offer our prayers and support to the Hatton family during these very difficult times. Simon's funeral will be held next Thursday 27 August at their family Parish of Our Lady of the Rosary, Kenmore. The number of people able to attend will be limited as a result of COVID-19 restrictions. Terrace staff and students will have a presence at the funeral. The funeral will be streamed and this link will be provided to the Terrace Family in the coming days. Please keep the Hatton family in your thoughts and prayers.
The students continue to work their way through the "hard yard" weeks of Term 3 in preparation for the submission of assignments and Term 3 exams, which will commence in Week 9 for all year levels, apart from Year 12.
With the introduction of ATAR, the exam program for our Year 12 students is different. The majority of Year 12 students have now completed all of the internal assessment, which will contribute to their final results. The actual external exams will commence on Monday 26 October. In preparation for these external exams, the Year 12 students will undertake a block of mock external exams, starting on Friday 28 August and running through to Friday 11 September. These mock external exams will form a key aspect of their preparation program. They will be marked, and feedback will be given to the students. This targeted feedback will provide insights as to where further revision work should occur for each student. The College will be hosting holiday workshops during the second week of the September holidays for the Year 12 students. The ATAR system is new for 2020 and Terrace wants to continue its strong focus on academic excellence and to nurture a strong culture of learning. This clear and focused revision and external exam preparation is a key focus for the Year 12 students over the coming weeks and months.
In last week's Terrace News, I detailed the College's position on COVID-19 tests and family members. We continue to monitor the situation closely and to seek advice from QCEC and Queensland Health. The obvious difficulty is that there is no completely right approach. However, we will continue to adopt a conservative approach to this issue in an attempt to maintain face-to-face learning. The status quo remains in place, i.e. if an immediate family member is waiting for COVID-19 test results, students should remain at home. We continue to monitor the implications of this position, particularly as they relate to our Year 12 students.
The GPS season continues this weekend with games against Anglican Church Grammar School at Tennyson and away. I thank parents for following the strict guidelines regarding attendance and remind you that the 'Arrive – Play - Leave' philosophy remains in place. Thank you for your support and good luck to all Terrace players this weekend.
Finally this week, although we will not be celebrating it in the usual way at Tennyson this weekend, our annual Timor Friendship Day was scheduled to occur on Saturday. Terrace has a long and valued relationship with Timor-Leste, and we continue to work with, and for, our friends in Timor.
We have well and truly entered the second half of Term 3, and several significant activities are about to commence, signalling that the term is rapidly disappearing. Our Year 10 students enter exam block next week before their camp program begins, running across the final three weeks of the term. The coronavirus pandemic has forced us to replace the Year 10 Immersion program with a modified Outdoor Education program. While the camp and retreat are unlikely to replace the wonderful experience that is Immersion completely, we look forward to providing our students with a memorable time spent with friends.
At the end of next week, Year 12 students will commence a block of mock external exams, designed to closely replicate the external exam experience that awaits them in October and November. Today, they have been spoken to about what to expect and how they might best prepare. If practice makes perfect, then the next few weeks will be critical for our Seniors as they ready themselves for Queensland's first external exams under our new QCE system.
From a planning perspective, while it feels like next year is a long way off, the creation of the 2021 calendar and timetable is well underway. With subject selections now completed, we have started building the timetable by looking at the number of classes we will be running and the staffing required to fill our needs. The timetable is an extremely complex beast and requires a significant amount of time and thought to get it to its final version. The College calendar has never experienced as many changes and cancellations as it has in 2020. In planning the 2021 calendar, we will assume that all of our regular activities can proceed. While we are hopeful that we will be able to proceed with the full calendar of events next year, we will proceed with caution and a conservative approach as has been the case up until this point.
The other significant planning tool that is underway is the College's Strategic Plan. Its first draft is almost ready for community consultation. The College Board will this week have the chance to view this first draft and provide feedback before the same opportunity is given to groups of students, staff and parents. The ongoing evolution of this important document is exciting as we look towards the next five year phase of the College's life.
It has been fantastic for our students to experience a co-curricular program this term. Despite the restrictions in place, we have been delighted with how smoothly things have run. I want to pass on the thanks of the College to all in the Terrace Family for your cooperation and understanding as we have worked to keep high standards of safety and hygiene in place at co-curricular events.
Persistence – to continue in the face of difficulty or adversity
Through the course of a term, I communicate to students through a variety of mediums, events, assemblies and groups regarding academic success. There are several intentional messages that I reinforce:
Be organised. Use the resources available and plan to use your time effectively.
Success = consistent effort x time.
Seek assistance. Use staff tutoring, peer tutoring, study hall, ask a question, speak to a mate.
Exam techniques. Know the content but also manage the exam.
Reflect on your performance.
Through the course of 2020, I have grown to recognise another important aspect of success – persistence. Persistence is especially required through the middle of a term when assignment drafts and finals are due, and exams are on the horizon. At this time, it takes persistence to stick to your study plan, to be consistent in your study and revision, or to know when to ask for help. Consequently, the above messages are not effective unless a student is persistent.
As I mentioned to our Year 12 cohort, persistence starts as a mindset and then becomes a habit. To be persistent you need to set a target or goal, know how to work towards it, then take responsibility to move forward. To develop persistence as a habit, start small – set a goal for nightly revision, identify the actual questions or content that you wish to revise, then do it without interruption, disruption or excuse.
Practise persistence every day and it will become a habit. A habit that will enable a student to achieve success.
At College Assembly this week, I took the opportunity to explore one of the Touchstones for a Catholic education in the Edmund Rice tradition - Inclusive Community. That is, a community that is accepting and welcoming, fostering right relationships and committed to the common good. Further to my comments in the newsletter last week on raising cultural awareness, the intentional message on this week's assembly centred on creating an environment that is free from discrimination based not only on race but gender, sexuality, wealth, physical ability or academic intelligence as well. To be a true 'Gentleman of Terrace' one needs to assist in nurturing an inclusive community where people are free to be the best that they can be. They need to Be the One who displays a high level of awareness through their actions. Take the opportunity to have a conversation with your sons about how conscious they are about the concept of inclusivity in their everyday conversations and actions. Of particular concern is online conduct. It is the first place where standards seem to rapidly drop.
Recently, I spoke to a group of Year 9 students about their camp experience at our Br Buckley Outdoor Education Centre. The boys' feedback was positive, with a number wanting to return at some point before they finished Year 12. The Year 9 camp is the last of our compulsory camps in the Outdoor Education program. A three day walk through Mt Barney National Park can be a testing time for many of our students both physically and mentally. As adults, we are acutely aware of the benefits of adversity in our formative years. Its presence is often needed as we grow into mature, capable human beings. The staff at Maroon are conscious of allowing the Year 9s to face and overcome difficulties during the week. Resisting the temptation to pave the road for the boys, but rather prepare them for it, is at the forefront of the Outdoor Education philosophy of our Maroon staff. The boys will get the opportunity to return to Maroon on either a Kairos retreat in Year 12, or as Year 11 camp leaders, or they may even take the challenge of attending the Meraki Immersion in Year 10 to further this crucial personal journey.
The year has been relatively incident free in terms of issues stemming from public transport. However, recently I have received a few concerns about Terrace students not offering their seat to full fare paying adults. If your son catches public transport, a quick reminder to offer his seat to adults would be appreciated.
The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary
This Saturday 22 August, Terrace celebrates Timor Friendship Day. This day is a reminder of our 15-year connection with Timor-Leste. In particular, on this day we recognise the work of Br Dan Courtney, a founding member of the Christian Brothers Community in Timor-Leste. Br Dan was an Old Boy of Terrace and worked tirelessly to give a voice to and serve those who lived on the margins. Br Dan sadly passed away in 2012, but not before making a real difference to many lives, especially in Timor-Leste.
In acknowledgement of the special relationship between Gregory Terrace and the Timorese people, our 1st V Basketball and 1st XV Rugby teams will be wearing a special Timorese jersey this weekend. In addition, a Br Dan Courtney medallion will be awarded to the best and fairest Terrace player in the 10A Basketball and 10A Rugby teams.
Thank you to everyone for your ongoing support for the Terrace Timor Network. Our recent Red and Black Day raised over $1700, which is a significant contribution towards the work being done in Timor-Leste. If you would like to continue to support our friends in Timor-Leste, remember you can buy an iced coffee at our Kolega café on Friday mornings before school, or alternatively you can buy coffee beans from our online store - https://www.justiceproducts.org/ - with all proceeds going to the Terrace Timor Network.
Unfortunately, our Year 10 Immersion to Timor-Leste couldn't go ahead this year. In the past, many students have travelled on this pilgrimage and journeyed to the top of the highest mountain in Timor, the sacred Mount Ramelau, to see the statue of Mary (image below).
Last Saturday the 15 August, the Catholic Church celebrated The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Assumption signals the end of Mary's earthly life and marks her return to heaven to be reunited with Jesus. As followers of God, we share in the love and protection that Mary provided for Jesus.
Mary showed us the extent of human love, motherly nurturing and selfless service.
We pray that all people of the earth learn to embrace one another in love, compassion and service.
Just as our Timorese friends seek wisdom and solace in the example of Mary,
so too are we called to be people guided by her life.
Inspire us by her openness to your love.
Lead us to be people who say yes to You.
May we live in this attitude to bring birth to a new world.
We make this prayer in Jesus' name... Amen.
Tuesday Morning Mass
Just a reminder that Tuesday morning Mass is on at 7.30am in the Chapel of The Holy Family. The following Houses are leading Mass in the coming weeks:
Week 7 – Barrett House
Week 8 – Mahoney House
Week 9 – Treacy House
Week 10 – Reidy House
Due to the current COVID-19 restrictions in place, parents/caregivers who attend will need to sign in (via the EVA Check-In app) and follow social distancing requirements. We appreciate your support with this.
Live Jesus in our Hearts…Forever
This week at Waterford, we transition from assignment mode into exam mode. The boys should be hard at work revising in preparation for the week ahead. A timely reminder that if your son does miss an exam due to illness or injury, please be sure to phone or email Waterford Place to let us know that your son will be away on the day. We will arrange for the missed exam to be completed on your son's return to school.
The last three weeks have seen our Year 10 boys put their sales skills to the test endorsing a very good cause. An enormous thank you to all of our wonderful parents and caregivers that have been baking up a storm in support of Edmund Rice Camps. Edmund Rice Camps is a community based not-for-profit organisation, providing recreational activities for children, youth and families who may not otherwise have the opportunity. I am sure that the boys thoroughly enjoyed sampling all the tasty treats on offer over the last two Thursdays. With your help, our boys have managed to raise over $400 in bake sales for this worthy cause.
Following on from the exam week, I hope the boys are looking forward to the three-day Camp and Retreat Program beginning in Week 8. As previously communicated, our Year 10 students will be heading to Girraween National Park for the Outdoor Education component and then on to our Tennyson facility for the Retreat day. If you haven't already done so, please go to Tours in the Parent Lounge and 'Accept' the Camp/Retreat as well as ensure that your son's medical details are up to date.
Music Presentation Assembly
It was my pleasure on Tuesday to present the Year 12 music students and a selection of our Premier Ensembles at our Music Presentation Assembly. Music is a large and complex activity that is made up of six main genres with a myriad of sub-genres, which host Symphony Orchestras to Rock Bands.
This past weekend would have seen 972 boys perform at the 30th anniversary of the Queensland Catholic Schools and Colleges Music Festival (QCMF), which is the largest of its kind in the southern hemisphere. Some of these boys would have performed for their first time while others for their last. We have celebrated some of our Seniors through vignettes that we have been posting on our Cultural Instagram.
Pep Band halftime feature - Round 6 vs ACGS
Support our Pep Band who have spent time in the studio to support the boys on the field. They have recorded a great cover of 'Happy'. See the behind the scenes video here and the real video on the live stream at halftime, Facebook and YouTube this Saturday.
Chess vs BSHS
Unfortunately, our Premier Board lost to BSHS. I am happy to report that our Juniors won again and remain in third place on the ladder. As a comparison to our 2019 results, we competed better against BSHS in 2020, which is a testament to our growing skills.
Last weekend saw the conclusion to the competitive side of Terrace Debating for 2020 with our Year 12 team going down in the quarter final of the QDU mini competition.
We are proud of our 2020 efforts where we placed second in GPS, first aggregate score in GPS and reaching the quarter finals of the QDU mini competition.
We look forward to our upcoming seminars in preparation for the 2021 Debating trials on 17 – 18 and 24 October.
Public Speaking is back
While all public speaking competitions are off, we have started our own internal competition to keep the activity alive in preparation for 2021.
See Mr Cacciola for further details as training and preparation has begun.
Support Group meetings will be held online if necessary. Should you wish to contact the Debating Support Group, please email: DSGChair@terrace.qld.edu.au or the Terrace Performing Arts, please email: TPAChair@terrace.qld.edu.au

Welcome to Week 6
This week had a busy start on Monday with co-curricular photos being taken throughout the day. Tuesday marked Music Assembly, featuring the Fanfare Trumpet Team, the Terrace Jazz Orchestra, the Waterford String Orchestra and the Terrace Choir. Congratulations to all our Year 12 boys who received badges on the assembly and thank you for your long commitment to Music at Terrace.
If any students are leaving the program, this needs to be notified by parents two weeks prior to the end of term (Thursday 3 September).
On Friday 4 September we will be holding our Placement Day for all musicians and singers who will be in Years 5 and 7 in 2021. If you are in Year 6 now at Terrace, we do not need to see you. This event provides the Music department the opportunity to meet and hear our newest members before next year and place them in an appropriate ensemble. This is not an audition, but it is a moment to provide certainty for students and families for next year.
Music Practice Hall
Held on Mondays from 3.15-5pm. A valuable way to use this resource is to work on the aural component of external exams. For AMEB candidates, the material for this can be found in your son's OneNote Instrumental lessons, under the 'Content Library' tab. We encourage you to support this unique opportunity, where your sons can practice and receive guided supervision with tutors from the Queensland Conservatorium of Music and other tertiary institutions.
If you have any queries or concerns, please contact the Music Department music@terrace.qld.edu.au
In Round 5 of GPS Basketball, Terrace played Brisbane State High School (BSHS), an opponent renowned for its talented players, which was an exciting challenge after a strong start to the 2020 season. The majority of the program engaged in supplementary or internal matches, although overnight rain and a midday storm ensured a few of these were unfortunately washed out. Each weekend, the ability to hold a significant amount of supplementary and/or internal games points to the size, strength and depth of talent in the Basketball program this season and a promising sign of things to come in the future.
In terms of results, BSHS took honours on the day as Terrace won eight of 18 games against BSHS, a strong showing given the representative talent across the age groups of the opposition. Despite the results, the program is buoyed by the tight margins in the majority of the games and the players must be commended for the way they competed against a strong, physical opponent at an away venue. The majority of teams played the game with the right attitude and fought until the end of the game in the face of some adversity. A special mention goes to the 11Bs, 10Cs and 9As. The most outstanding team performance from the weekend came from the 10Ds who played against the BGS 4th V and worked cohesively as a team with some excellent ball movement in transition to record a memorable win.
The 1st V won a thrilling and gripping fixture, which produced some of the highest quality Basketball seen at an underage level. The skill, speed and execution under pressure from both sides was highly impressive in a game that ebbed and flowed with the lead changing hands a number of times in a dramatic 4th quarter. Over the past 18 months this team has developed and learned the art of composure under pressure through a number of tight games, and that experience was telling on Saturday as they recovered from a six point deficit with just minutes remaining to lead by three and make a crucial defensive play to deny BSHS a game equalling shot.
This weekend the program takes on the traditionally strong Anglican Church Grammar School in what should be a good challenge for all players, and an exciting game that the coaching staff of all teams have been building towards for a number of weeks now.
On Saturday we hosted Brisbane State High School in the GPS draw and we knew from the start that it would be a tough day for our boys. Despite not winning as many as we would have liked, our Terrace footballers put up a great fight across the board.
We saw great courage and resilience in every match, particularly in the 7As – State High's team had yet to lose a game and our boys held out impressively before ultimately breaking down as the game wore on. This theme played out in a fair few matches, with a number of our teams struggling to find that clinical edge.
The attitude on Saturday was outstanding. Our 1st XI included many members called up from lower age groups to fill in for injuries, and their performance against State High highlighted the real depth we have in our Football program as they dominated a 7-0 victory.
In the supplementary games, we had some great performances and wins. The mighty Year 5s took a double over the BBC As and BC Bs, and our Year 6s played with admirable resilience in two composite teams.
Next weekend we take on Anglican Church Grammar School, last year's GPS premiers. All our teams will need to give their all to get the win over this dominant footballing school.
Last weekend was a test of our playing depth with teams playing far and wide. A special thanks to our age group coordinators Mr Blair Copelin and Mr Brendan McGrath who juggled team lists to ensure we had enough boys to fulfil our commitments to the supplementary draw.
I am mindful that a small number of teams have played our friends from Nudgee three or more times to date. I am confident that we will find other opposition for these teams moving forward.
Round 6 is Terrace Timor Round and we are hosting Anglican Church Grammar School (ACGS). I am pleased to say that all our Terrace Rugby teams will be playing at Tennyson this Saturday.

The Rugby program, in conjunction with the Rugby Support Group, has agreed that certain age groups will be asked to provide the resources for at least one home game each year. In some years/rounds we will have bigger crowds, as we will this weekend hosting ACGS, so extra help will be needed. Many of you will have experience in a similar system from junior rugby. Depending on the number of volunteers, we are asking you to provide a minimum of one hour per season as part of your commitment to the Terrace Rugby program.
This weekend we ask that parents and caregivers from the Opens age group assist at Tennyson.
Our team of the week this round is the 3rd XV, coached by Gary and Wil Munday. The boys recorded a 19-12 win, a reward for their consistent approach to training and playing all season.
Rugby results
Weekend results can be found via the link here. This provides access to results from all schools and age groups. Please note that the 1st XV is the only grade that plays for a premiership.
22 August - Round 6 v ACGS (HOME)
29 August - Round 7 v BGS (HOME)
5 September - Round 8 v TSS (AWAY)
12 September - Round 9 v Downlands (small number of non-GPS fixtures)
Saturday saw a very competitive day of tennis against BSHS in almost all matches. It was great to see the courts at Griffith University full after such a wet beginning; the weather was against us yet again with overnight rain dampening the morning courts. As is often the case, some areas received more rain than others, and unfortunately TSS were forced to call off our supplementary fixtures at their venue.
Thank you to the Terrace Tennis families who helped in making the courts playable again between scattered showers. Days in these conditions are always hard to judge in terms of weather, but as a program we always seek to push through and play wherever possible, regardless of whether we believe the result will go our way. Thank you to all families for their patience and support on wet days; let's hope for some sunshine this weekend against Churchie.
Year 12 is a year of finals. Final Debating season, final Rugby game, grand finals, formal, final days and now our final exams. It is a time where everything comes into perspective, a time to reflect on where you have come from and who has been with you on the journey to prepare for your final moments.
One of the pinnacles of this reflective experience is the Terrace v Nudgee Rugby, which happened only two weeks ago. On what would be the biggest day for Terrace spirit and support, Tennyson fell relatively silent compared to the thousands expected there. But one message reached the 1st XV, a message from Senior Mac Millar, a 1st XI player and leader of spirit. This show of support makes a difference in these grand final moments. Just like the tunnel before QCS that has gone in previous years, the rituals and kind words of our community help us greatly.
Getting to enjoy those moments while we have them is critical, I know my Mum has been looking forward to the formal this year in whatever form that takes (thanks to the hard work of the school, especially Mrs Tarlington) it is important that we take advantage of the opportunities and enjoy them.
Whether it is a lucky dinner the night before, a prayer, a lucky pen or even touching the top of the door before you enter an exam room, the little things to denote a performance mindset and prepare yourself for a grand final moment make all the difference in performing under pressure.
Finally, I just wanted to note how through everything this year we have come away extremely well in all aspects, with two premierships in Volleyball and Cricket in Term 1, and placing performances in both Rowing and Debating and a great effort in the Swimming. Some excellent performances in Music and Culture using online mediums to showcase talents (with amazing performances on this Tuesday's assembly included). Now this term we are currently undefeated in Basketball and Football, and have great efforts from Chess and heartfelt losses by the 1st XV, we as a year have put in our all and each member has had a chance to Be the One so far. It is important we keep fighting to the final moments.
I hope everyone can Be the One in the coming final weeks.

3rd place was a forfeit.
The winner: Rainbowpat on Patch.
2nd Place (which was awarded the SH and 500K): Nickbush on Patch.
It was a bit sad because patch didn't provider the challenge the other stations do. I may do this again and not allow patching.
But grats guys it was fun (for the first hour.)!!
Thanks for hosting the event Jackpot and congrats to everyone who won something!
I kinda like the idea of getting rid of the lowest DRs each league. That way you can still have patching.
I did not re-run this because of the known botting issues at this time.
Jackie's only-incred format is more sensible in today's environment.


I used to watch the film all the time when I was younger and until quite recently I didn't even know it was a book first! I actually saw Stacey's review of it for her February classic and was surprised and pleased to discover it. I picked it up in a charity shop and read it last month.
As I said before I loved the film when I was younger even though it used to scare me quite a lot! I wanted to see if the book was similar or whether they'd changed the story for the film, although the film is quite different I think I loved the book even more. It's also quite short so I knew I'd fly through it.
It's a fast-paced adventure story which manages to be heartwarming as well as exciting. The cast of characters are amazingly well-developed for such a short book and I found myself really getting attached to them. Aiken explores darker themes and plot lines in a way that is engaging and accessible to both a young and an adult audience without ever being patronising. Even though it was published in 1962, the language and writing style hasn't aged at all and its themes remain relevant and captivating.
I absolutely adored it and will definitely be re-reading it in the future, probably on a winter day in front of the fire. The book is extremely atmospheric, Aiken's descriptions draw you right into the world and writing is compelling and beautiful. The adventure story was well-paced and interesting and I loved all of the characters. I really want to read the rest of this series.
I certainly hope so! It makes me a little sad that I didn't know about it earlier which makes me think that it might be quite underrated. I know that there is a vintage children's classic edition so hopefully that will drive sales and increase the readership of this book amongst a new generation of young readers. I know that I would have loved to read this when I was younger.
Anyone who's a fan of classic children's adventure authors like Enid Blyton, or descriptive stories with a darker element like Peter Pan. But I would really recommend this to anyone, I think it's so universal that everyone could enjoy it.
So that's this month's classic, as I said I'll be posting these each month and if you would like to sign up to the challenge (it's not too late) click here.

Reversing course, Mitt Romney will release tax returns Tuesday
By Paul West, The Los Angeles Times
Reporting from St. Petersburg, Fla.—Conceding that his refusal to release his tax returns immediately was "a mistake" and "a distraction" that helped cost him a South Carolina primary win, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney said Sunday that he would release his 2010 federal return this week, along with an estimate of his 2011 taxes.
"We made a mistake in holding off as long as we did," Romney said on "Fox News Sunday." As a result, he added, the issue became "a distraction" as he attempted to halt Newt Gingrich's surge in the first Southern primary.
"Speaker Gingrich had a good week," Romney said. "It was not a great week for me. We spent a lot of time talking about tax returns and the changing result in Iowa."
Romney said that, as a businessman, he's faced setbacks and come back before and said he would again.
Trying to put the issue of tax returns behind him, he said he would release his 2010 return on Tuesday along with an estimate of his 2011 tax bill. But he brushed off a suggestion from moderator Chris Wallace that he follow the pioneering example his father, George Romney, set in the 1968 presidential campaign, when he released a dozen years of federal returns.
"I'm not going back to my dad's year," Romney said, calling that a time before the Internet and maintaining that there was already "plenty of information" available about his financial holdings in the required public disclosures he has already made.
Romney was asked three separate times about his Mormon faith, which, exit polls suggested, probably hurt him in South Carolina, where conservative Christians cast almost two-thirds of the ballots.

"William would blame Camilla for all the hurt she had caused his mother, which would send Laura into a rage," a family friend revealed in William and Harry. "Laura was not having any of it. She would take a hard line and fire back at William, 'Your father has ruined my life."
The infamous affair between Prince Charles took the world by storm, and the after-effects are still felt to this day. Although the couple knew each other since the early 1970s, both of them were taken at the time. Camilla ended up marrying British Army officer, Andrew Parker Bowles in 1973, and Charles married Diana Spencer (most famously known as Princess Diana) in the early '80s.
However, both of these marriages eventually began to fall apart. In January 1995, Camilla and Charles ended up divorcing, and officially dissolved their marriage in 1996. This was four years of separation. It was before their divorce that rumors already started flying. For decades, Charles and Camilla played a game of cat and mouse, always on-again, and off-again. And finally, once the drama seemed to settle for the most part, the pair decided to make things official.
Now, Camilla is the Duchess of Cornwall and a prevalent member of the royal family. However, she was once a commoner, just like us, and wasn't any different from your ordinary mother. She also has two children of her own, other than her two stepsons, Prince William, and Prince Harry. Here's are some of the juiciest facts about the Duchess' non-royalty children.
It's an undeniable fact that children suffer the most from a parent's affair. And in the case of Camilla and Prince Charles, both sides of the family were feeling the humiliation that came along with it. Laura and her brother, Tom, had to deal with the embarrassment alongside Prince William and Harry. Both sides were all going through the same thing, at the same time. Laura and William's relationship eventually improved, and the two bonded over their mutual situation. It wasn't always like this, though.
"William would blame Camilla for all the hurt she had caused his mother, which would send Laura into a rage," a family friend revealed in William and Harry. "Laura was not having any of it. She would take a hard line and fire back at William, 'Your father has ruined my life.'"
In the biography 'William and Harry: Behind the Palace Walls', it was made clear that Laura really wasn't a fan of Prince Charles at the beginning. Anytime the Prince would phone the house in Wiltshire to speak to her mother, Laura would pick up the phone on the same line and yell, "Why don't you stop calling Mummy and leave our family alone." Ouch. According to royal expert Katie Nicholl, Laura didn't care whatsoever that the Prince of Wales was calling, since "she blamed him for breaking up her parents' marriage."
After Camilla married Andrew Parker Bowles, she gave birth to her very first child, Thomas, in 1974. A couple of years later, in 1978, the couple welcomed their second child into the family - their daughter, Laura.
According to royal expert and biographer Penny Juror's book 'The Duchess: Camilla Parker Bowles and the Love Affair That Rocked the Crown', the mother of two has a very good relationship with both of her children, but, apparently, "is particularly close to her daughter, Laura." Both of her kids are also extremely protective of their mother.
Even though most of her time is spent by Prince Charles' side, her children and ex-husband Andrew still hold a very important part of her life. Camilla will spend most of her weekends with her side of the family.
Tom's parents sent him to the prestigious boarding school, Eton College, before Prince William and Prince Harry had the chance to attend. Most people are also shocked to find out that he was sent off at the very young age of 7. And his mother regretted it. According to an interview with The Times, she revealed that "she'd never do it again, but it was the thing you did, you know."
And the first couple of years were rough for him. Tom admitted that he didn't put in much effort during the first two years at school. Once his father got fed up with his antics, he threatened to send him to a different - and more intense - boarding school that would force him to "buck up and do some work." Even so, Tom stated, "I was rubbish at everything." Regardless, he's planning on sending his kids off to boarding school too.
He did become an expert in one thing, though, during his time at Eton. Which, apparently, is smoking. After graduating from Eton and starting college, he still wasn't able to get rid of the bad habit. In the biography by royal expert Katie Nicholl, 'William and Harry: Behind the Palace Walls', Tom was "caught in possession of cannabis while reading English at Oxford [Brookes University]."
And that's not where it ends. Tom was also "trapped into offering cocaine to an undercover reporter in 1999 while working as a publicist at the Cannes Film Festival." He never kept it a secret that he constantly got into trouble in his teenage years, and admitted that he was "naughty [with] drink, drugs, whatever it was."
Although he rebelled in his teenage years, eventually he grew out of it and cleaned himself up when he decided to get serious about his career. According to Press Gazette, GQ magazine ended up hiring Tom as a contributing editor. Before accepting the position, he was a contributor to Tatler magazine as well and even began writing his own food column for the Mail on Sunday.
Tom was asked what sparked his interest in writing about food and responded: "I was rubbish at everything else. I was sacked from every job I had." The revelation came after he got sacked from his job in the film industry, and he ended up approaching the editors of Tatler and offered to become their food writer.
Interestingly enough, this position didn't exist before. He loved it so much that writing about food became his bread and butter, and he developed a serious love for food. In fact, Tom admitted he spends around £2,000 (about $2,600) per month on food.
This is a classic case of how things aren't always what they seem. Although we know the royal family represents everything proper, glamorous, and graceful, it goes without saying that they also go through their fair share of drama, heartbreak, and problems just like us.

Whenever you find hundreds and thousands of sane people trying to get out of a place and a little bunch of madmen trying to get in, you know the latter are reporters.
Newspapermen ask you dumb questions. They look up at the sun and ask you if it's shining.
All day long, Hollywood reporters lie in the sun, and when the sun goes down, they lie some more.
Always grab the reader by the throat in the first paragraph, sink your thumbs into his windpipe in the second, and hold him against the wall until the tag line.
The first duty of the press is to obtain the earliest and most correct intelligence of events of the time and instantly, by disclosing them, to make them the common property of the nation.
Now share your opinions with the rest of the class.
Work in pairs. Discuss the ethical questions facing journalists today.
· Should journalists ever lie or use deceit in the pursuit of a story?
· Should they ever edit a direct quotation?
· Is it legitimate to tape a conversation and not inform the interviewee of this?
· Should journalists accept freebies? Should they do so only on certain conditions? Are there any significantly different ethical issues in being offered a book for review, a free ticket to review a play and a free trip to the Seychelles for a travel feature?
· What is the impact of the plethora of awards on standards?
· What considerations should a journalist have when interviewing children?
· Should a reporter contact the parents of a student who has committed suicide at university?
· Should newspapers carry columns by local Christian leaders but not by those of other faiths?
· To what extent should newspapers provide readers with the right to reply to inaccuracies?
· What special consideration should a journalist have when dealing with the mentally ill?
· How important is it for journalists to protect their sources?
· Is cheque-book journalism (paying sources) justified?
· Is it legitimate to invade someone's privacy for a story? Do different standards apply to public figures and to members of the general public?
· To what extent does overt commitment to a political party or campaigning movement interfere with professionalism and notions of fairness?
· Should newspapers carry government misinformation during times of war (and peace)?
· Is it legitimate ever to break an embargo?
· Is it possible to provide guidelines on questions of taste and the use of 'shocking' photographs or obscene language?
· To what extent does newspaper language reinforce militarist and ageist stereotypes and how can journalists confront this issue?

1. What is a headline?
2. What are headlines for?
3. What is special about headline language?
· What is a headline?
The headline is a unique type of text. It has a range of functions that specifically dictate its shape, content and structure, and it operates within a range of restrictions that limit the freedom of the writer. For example, the space that the headline will occupy is almost always dictated by the layout of the page, and the size of the typeface will similarly be restricted. The headline will rarely, if ever, be written by the reporter who wrote the news story. It should, in theory, encapsulate the story in a minimum number of words, attract the reader to the story and, if it appears on the front page, attract the reader to the paper.
This mix of functions immediately presents a problem: headlines can often, in their attempt to attract a reader to a story, be ambiguous or confusing.
· What are headlines for?
Newspapers are ephemeral texts, that is, they are intended only for the day they are delivering the news. They cater for a wide range of readers with a wide range of needs. Some people may read the paper thoroughly, taking in every aspect; others, probably the majority, skip certain sections and read others in more detail. Some may read only one section. And, of course, each reader may change his/her mode of reading depending on the demands of the day. The headline has the capacity to encapsulate a story, and the headlines in a particular edition give the reader the overall picture of the current news (headline content), its relative importance (visual impact and position in the paper), its classification (which section of the paper it's in – sports, finance, overseas news, etc.). In theory, then, the reader can skim the headlines and have an outline of the news of the day, and some idea of its relative impact and importance. The question is, to what extent do headlines actually work in this way?
Headlines are important in their own right. They are the first text that a newspaper reader sees when buying and reading the paper. They employ a range of creative language devices to produce short, attention-getting, highly memorable texts, and have the capacity to encapsulate an entire story in a few words.
Some of the devices the headline writer uses to create effective headlines are: sound via alliteration, homophones and rhyme; word and meaning via naming, loaded language, ambiguity and word play; syntax via the use of structures designed to focus on specific aspects of the text; non-standard structures, omission of words to create a telegraphic style. Headline writers also use selection of information; and direct and indirect address to readers or other participants in the story.
Lastly, but as importantly, headlines use graphology, the visual aspect of text, to draw the reader's eye. If you, as the reader are visually attracted to a text, and then enticed by an ambiguous or startling text, decide to buy this newspaper or read this article, the newspaper has reached its goal.
Here is a selection of headlines from a range of newspapers from 30 September 2001. They are in random order, and not classified according to newspaper.
· Can you tell, from the headline, what the story is about?
· If you were an editor, which of these stories would you put on the front page of your paper?
· Which would be your lead (most important) story?
Compare your answers with someone else's. How much agreement is there?
Over time, headline writers have developed a vocabulary that fulfils the requirements of the headline, using words that are short, attention getting and effective. Many of the words that are 'typical' of the headline are probably rarely found outside this particular text type. A few may move from the headline into a wider field.
Some of them are chosen just as devices to use space economically. Some have the effect of being attention getting. The headline writer has a range of linguistic devices available to create headlines that will attract the reader's interest.
In each of the following groups of headlines, certain words and phrases have been highlighted. Can you suggest why these particular words have been used? What effect is created?

When was the last time you experienced a life transforming miracle through the power of Christ? At Flat Rock, we are privileged to be a part of miracles that happen every day.
Life transforming events don't always have to come in fancy wrapping or large packages. Very often, you have to listen, watch or share closely to see the miracles that God grants us daily at Flat Rock Homes.
They can come in the form of a simple smile, laugh or touch; A sound or a glance that was otherwise never supposed to happen. Or, it can come in larger ways, when a resident outwardly expresses that they are a "winner", despite what the outside world may have told them for a lifetime.
So, please, won't you join us on our journey of transformation? You never know what can happen when miracles happen every day!

Q: How to set theme in local storage? i created a method that change the theme of my app.
I tried to pass a theme variable to localstorage but without success, no effects.
I'd like to save the result of condition in local storage, so if i change route i can see the same theme setted before.
  @HostBinding('class.light-theme') lightTheme: boolean = false;
  @HostBinding('class.dark-theme') darkTheme: boolean = true;
  theme: string = 'Dark';

  toggleTheme(): void {

    if (this.theme === 'Light') {
      this.lightTheme = false;
      this.darkTheme = true;
      this.theme = 'Dark';
    } else {
      this.darkTheme = false;
      this.lightTheme = true;
      this.theme = 'Light';
    }
  }
}

A: This should work:
  theme: string = localStorage.getItem('theme');
  @HostBinding('class.light-theme') lightTheme: boolean = this.theme === 'Light';
  @HostBinding('class.dark-theme') darkTheme: boolean = this.theme === 'Dark';

  toggleTheme(): void {

    if (this.theme === 'Light') {
      this.lightTheme = false;
      this.darkTheme = true;
      this.theme = 'Dark';
    } else {
      this.darkTheme = false;
      this.lightTheme = true;
      this.theme = 'Light';
    }
    localStorage.setItem('theme', this.theme);
  }
}

You probably should inject localStorage via dependency injection but thats other subject.

A: You can use it like this --> localStorage.setItem('name', item);
https://developer.mozilla.org/de/docs/Web/API/Window/localStorage

A: You can also use angular-storage npm page to store data.
store.set('number', 2)
https://www.npmjs.com/package/angular-storage
It's simple to use and read.
Major banifit is that u can store object, number etc

Q: Jquery multiselect event handler I have an html dropdown.  I want to fire an event whenever the selection changes in any way.  I tried registering a 'click' event but this didnt work when multi-selecting (either by dragging the mouse or holding down shift + down arrow).
So basically, how can I fire an event on any selection change?

A: Would .change() do the trick?
http://api.jquery.com/change/
Certainly there seems to be a working demo of a multi-select box on that page...

A: Try using the onchange event.
$('#mySelect').change(function(){
    alert($(this).val());
});

A: jquery 1.4:  $("#mySelector").change(myChangeEvent);
before:  $("#mySelector").bind("change", myChangeEvent);
function myChangeEvent(e){

}

You are here: Home » Outside Tibet » Dharamsala » Will scrapping Nori, online processing of Return Visa, Exit Permit ease overseas travel for Tibetans in India?
(TibetanReview.net, Aug03, 2018) – In what has been presented as an easing of the rules for Tibetans in India wishing to travel abroad, the government of India is said to have done away with the process for stamping their travel document, known as the IC (Identity certificate), with Nori ("… no objection to return to India, provided …"). Besides, Tibetans can now apply for their Return visa and Exit Permit online, said the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA) on its Tibet.net website Aug1, citing President Lobsang Sangay.
However, it is too early to say whether these changes will make it more convenient and speed things up for Tibetans seeking to travel abroad. The policy status of Tibetans living in India, unless they have obtained citizenship – whether by naturalization or assertion of legal right – is that of temporary residents.
Presently it takes more than one year for a Tibetan to be issued an IC and it is not clear whether doing away with the Nori stamp will speed up the process.
Until now, even with a Nori stamp, a Tibetan still needs to obtain a Return Visa from an Indian Embassy or Consulate abroad to be allowed to return to the country. Exit Permit is required for a Tibetan to be allowed to leave India for any overseas travel. Return Visa is insisted upon, in addition to the Nori, by some embassies as a condition for issuing visa to a Tibetan.
It is not clear whether applying online for the Return Visa and Exit Permit will speed things up and dispense with the requirement for personal presentation for obtaining them. This is because while the application for renewing the temporary Permit to Stay in India, the RC (Foreigner's Registration Certificate), could be made online since some years back, a Tibetan has to still personally present all the required documents to the Foreigners' Regional Registration Office, get an appointment date from there, and then duly present oneself on that date for obtaining the renewal.
The online process for obtaining the above two documents is presently applicable to eight regions and excludes few Tibetan settlements, said the Tibet.net report.
Thanks Sikyong and all IC related officers of bureau office, New Delhi for making easier for Tibetan IC. One more request from many Tibetans is "please try to change the name – IC into Travel Document" so, international immigration officers can easily recognothis this book as a travel document.


Secondary school teachers instruct students in junior and senior high schools. They conduct classes in academic subjects, such as English and mathematics, or skills, such as mechanical drawing and woodworking. They start with the basics and add complexity to spur students' imaginations and intellects and to prepare them for advanced education and jobs as adults.
Teachers also help their colleagues plan courses that use new methods and materials and organize extracurricular activities such as sports and social groups. They work as teams that include school administrators, school counselors, and school psychologists. Their work goes beyond the classroom to include parents, parent groups, and community and governmental agencies.
Junior high school teachers instruct students in the seventh to ninth grades, while high school teachers instruct the tenth to twelfth grades. In some school districts, junior high schools have been replaced by middle or intermediate schools, which start with the fifth grade.
On most days teachers have from four to seven classes in their fields of specialization. English, mathematics, science, and history are taught in all schools and are usually taken by all students. Some teachers specialize in foreign languages, computer sciences, music, and art, which many students take as electives. Physical education teachers concentrate on improving students' strength and motor skills. They may administer physical fitness and posture tests, set up special exercise programs, and coach softball, basketball, and other sports. Some secondary school teachers work with students who have physical or mental handicaps or students who need bilingual education. Others give lessons to homebound students who are unable to attend school regularly because of health problems.
Teachers may be assigned to homeroom classes, where they take attendance and handle other school business, and study halls, where they must maintain an orderly, quiet atmosphere for study.
Teachers who work in public secondary schools must be certified. Requirements vary from state to state and change frequently, but usually include examinations, bachelor's degrees, student-teaching experience, and course work in education. Many states now require teachers to have or be working toward master's degrees at the time of certification. In some states private and parochial school teachers also must be certified.
journals, newspaper classified ads, and job banks on the Internet may list openings. In some areas teachers are assigned to schools when they are certified.
Teachers may become heads of their departments. With experience and additional education, they may take on administrative duties as assistant principals, principals, and superintendents. Most of these positions require at least master's degrees; some require doctorates.
About 1.1 million secondary school teachers are employed in the United States. Employment is expected to grow as fast as the average for all jobs through 2014. Teachers in the natural and physical sciences, mathematics, special education, and computer science are likely to find more job opportunities than teachers in other fields.
Working conditions vary by subject taught. While most teachers work with ten to thirty students per class, music teachers may work with one student at a time. Teaching is physically strenuous; most teachers stand most of the day and may suffer from voice strain. While preparation time is built into the school day, teachers often plan lessons and correct papers after school hours. Some attend school meetings or supervise extracurricular activities, such as drama productions or sports events, in the evening. Secondary school teachers usually do not work during the summer months; many use that time to get additional education or earn extra income. Most secondary school teachers belong to labor unions.
Teachers' salaries vary with education, length of service, and location of the school. In 2004 the median salary for secondary school teachers ranged from $41,400 to $45,970 per year. Teachers with master's degrees or doctorates earn much more than those who have only bachelor's degrees. In some schools, teachers receive extra pay for coaching sports or supervising other extracurricular activities. Private school teachers generally earn less than public school teachers. Teachers receive paid vacations and holidays, as well as health insurance and retirement plans.
