Learn about our editorial process Rachel Gurevich Medically reviewed by Medically reviewed by Meredith Shur, MD on April 20, 2020 Meredith Shur, MD, FACOG, is board-certified in obstetrics and gynecology, as well as a certified medical examiner. Learn about our Review Board Meredith Shur, MD on April 20, 2020 Understanding Ovulation Overview Signs Timing Body Basal Temperatures Cervical Mucus Ovulation Kits Best Fertility Products Getting Pregnant Myths Paul Tearle / Stockbyte / Getty Images Basal body temperature thermometers are marketed and sold specifically for women trying to get pregnant. While charting your basal body temperature (BBT) is a good way to track ovulation, one of the biggest benefits to this method is the low expense. So, why spend more than you have to on a BBT? What BBT Thermometer Manufacturers Promise Customers Will a fancy thermometer help you get pregnant faster? Eh... it's unlikely. The key to getting pregnant is timing sex for ovulation. (That's only if other problems aren't getting in the way such as infertility, of course.) You don't need a fancy thermometer for that. BBT thermometers will boast that they are accurate to 1/100th of a degree. For example, the reading will give you 98.63 F instead of only 98.6 F. However, all you need is an accurate reading to the tenth degree. This is available on almost every basal body thermometer. What to Look for When Buying a BBT Thermometer With all that said, the specialty BBT thermometers do have features worth getting. Digital BBT thermometers frequently have memory recall. This means you don't have to record your temp first thing in the morning. You can just turn the thermometer back on to get the last recorded temp. A beep to indicate that the thermometer is finished is nice. When you're taking your temperature before you've stepped out of bed, it's easy to fall asleep with the thermometer in your mouth. The beep helps. A must-have in a BBT thermometer is accuracy to one-tenth of a degree. Two-tenths is not good enough for charting. Pros of digital thermometers: They are easier to handle.You don't have to remember to shake it down the night before.It won't shatter on your bathroom floor. Cons of digital thermometers: The batteries need to be replaced. (More often than you might imagine, when used daily.)You may get inaccurate readings for the month or so before the batteries start to die.Sometimes they stop working for no good reason. Sometimes after a few years, but sometimes after only a few months. Choose whichever appeals to you most. Just make sure you stick to the same thermometer over a month's time. The 6 Best Fertility Products of 2020 What to Pay for a BBT Thermometer There are BBT thermometers being sold for as much as $60. That said, the average price is about $20 to $30. If you're buying a digital thermometer, you don't really need to spend more than $30. You can spend just $10 and still get a good-enough thermometer. It may not have all the features, though. If you're buying a glass thermometer, $10 or less is a good limit. For glass, you want one that is non-mercury. You don't need one that is specially made for fertility. As long as the thermometer is easy to read to the 1/10th of a degree, it's good enough for charting. Which BBT Thermometers Should You Avoid Before you buy, read some reviews online. Not because of the fertility features, but because many cheap digital thermometers don't last long or don't have easy to read displays. (This is important if you don't have memory recall functions and need to read it in the dusk of the morning.) Some BBT thermometers come with sample charts. The really expensive thermometers will track your temperature for you on an internal computer. You may or may not consider these features as a waste of money. It depends on how comfortable you are with charting. You can find free fertility charts for tracking your BBT. You can also sign up for free fertility calendar services online. There are many fertility apps for your phone, too. The best ones have web-based and phone-based features. So, Which BBT Thermometer Should You Buy? If you're not ready to buy a new thermometer now, you might be able to get by with whatever you have at home. However, if you do want to buy a new one, these basal body thermometers are reasonably priced and have good features. Smart Basal Thermometer by Femometer Features include: Accurate to 1/100th of a degree300-day memory90 second read time Will sync to your phone via Bluetooth for ovulation prediction i-Snow Med Multi-Function Digital Basal Thermometer Features include: Accurate to 1/100th of a degree60-day memoryBack-lit display for early morning readingsBuilt-in alarm to help you remember when to take your temperature Was this page helpful?

New Delhi, Oct 18 A court here on Thursday admitted a criminal defamation suit filed by former Minister M.J. Akbar against journalist Priya Ramani and said it will record the BJP leader's statement on October 31.
"I take cognisance of the offence under section 500 (punishment for defamation) Indian Penal Code (IPC)," Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Samar Vishal said.

The court's observation came after hearing submissions of Akbar's counsel Geeta Luthra, who urged the court to consider the defamation suit and proceed against the woman journalist.
After taking cognisance of the defamation suit, the court listed the matter for October 31 when the statements of the plaintiff and his witnesses would be recorded.
Akbar has listed names of two senior woman journalists -- The Sunday Guardian's Editor Joyeeta Basu and journalist Veenu Sandal -- and four others as his witnesses to prove his defamation charges against Ramani.
Ramani was the first in a long list of female journalists to have accused Akbar of sexual harassment.
Akbar, through his counsel, told the court that Ramani's defamatory statements had damaged his image, lowering his esteem in the eyes of the public.
Luthra told the court that Ramani's controversial tweets and similar social media posts had caused irreparable loss to his reputation built over 40 years.
"Articles in international and national media quoted these defamatory tweets which were defamatory unless Ramani proves anything against Akbar," the counsel said.
Akbar, a Rajya Sabha member, is facing a long string of sexual harassment accusations from women journalists who worked with him at several publications that he edited at various stages of his journalistic career.
Akbar has denied the charges as "false, wild and baseless".
Akbar, in his plaint, said that it was apparent that the false narrative against him was being circulated in a motivated manner and for the fulfilment of an agenda.
He resigned as Minister of State for External Affairs on Wednesday and said he would fight the legal battle in his personal capacity.
Ramani said she was ready to fight the defamation charges brought against her, as "truth and the absolute truth is my only defence".

New York | This week we posted the Q3 2019 edition of The IRA Bank Book, our quarterly review of the US banking industry. And to celebrate and say thank you to our readers, we've put the new edition on sale for 40% off the regular list price of $99 through close of business this Friday, September 13, 2019.
Liquidity moves markets!Follow the money. Find the profits!
In this issue of The Institutional Risk Analyst, we take a modest victory lap for our 2017 call predicting that net interest income (NII) for the US banking industry would peak and decline early in 2019. After feasting for years on the "extraordinary" policy of the Federal Open Market Committee (aka "Financial Repression)," the banks are now getting squeezed in a deflationary vice. We write:
"In 2008, total quarterly funding costs for US banks was over $100 billion. We expect to see total funding costs for the industry close to $60 billion per quarter by Q1 2020, suggesting considerable additional pressure on bank profit margins in terms of the gross yield spread over funding costs. That said, we think it very unlikely that bank funding costs will return to the $80-100 billion per quarter run rate that prevailed pre-2008."
Ponder the fact that the US banking system has grown 30% since 2008, but the cost of funds for the industry is still less than half of pre-2008 levels. The great bailout of the US banking system by the Fed continues, but most analysts, media and policy mavens are too credulous to state the obvious. Just look at the data. Funding costs are rising, but yields are falling.
In addition, we review the small but influential universal banks operating in the US. There are a number of non-US banks with large transaction arms that operate in the US via securities businesses — Barclays, BNP, and Credit Suisse come to mind — but we focus on the actual banks with a large transaction component, including:
JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM)
Assets: $2.7 Trillion
Citigroup (NYSE:C)
Assets: $1.9 trillion
Deutsche Bank AG (NYSE:DB)
Assets: € 1.4 trillion
Goldman Sachs Group (NYSE:GS)
Assets: $925 billion
Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS)
Assets: $876 billion
We also take a close look at the various loan asset classes on the balance sheets of US banks, particularly the real estate sector. Default rates continue to fall, except at the FHA were rates of delinquency are almost touch double digits. Meanwhile, volatility is returning to net loss rates for bank owned mortgages after years of suppressed loss given default (LGD). The chart below shows LGDs for the $2.5 trillion in bank owned 1-4s through Q2 2019.
Source: WGA LLC
We note that most of the Street was guiding lower on investment banking and trading revenue coming out of the second quarter of 2019, but falling NII may be a bigger problem. The Financial Times reports that investment banking revenues for the largest universal banks plunged to a 13-year low in 1H 2019, according to the latest data from industry monitor Coalition.
"The banks had individually reported poor second-quarter earnings for their markets and investment banking divisions, including an 18 per cent fall in fixed-income revenues at Morgan Stanley and a 32 per cent decline in equities revenues at Deutsche Bank, which is in the process of shutting its stock trading business," the FT reports.
As we go into Q3 2019 earnings for US financials, remember that pricing power for bank loans is non-existent and the cost of deposits may not actually be moving lower with medium term interest rates. Our fiends at Sandler O'Neill noted last month:
"Right now, the central question facing community bank managers is whether lower short rates will translate into lower deposit costs. In our view, lower short rates might provide some modest relief, but they won't be a panacea. We say this because deposit rates are more a function of market dynamics than absolute rates."
Of note, JPM Chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon apparently told an audience at the Barclays conference this week that he sees full-year 2019 net interest income as down $500 million from previous guidance, with full-year NII at about $57 billion. This is a full $2 billion below the $59 billion run rate implied by 1H 2019 results. If we spitball JPM's NII for 2019 at $57.5 billion, here's how the chart looks below.
Source: FFIEC, WGA LLC
Dimon told the conference that next year could be worse, reports SeekingAlpha, with a possible cut of several billion in NII vs 2019. The bank, Dimon says, is prepping for the possibility of 0% interest rates. The 2012-2018 boom time in financials finally seems to have ended and with it the steady ascension of bank earnings into the sky.
Depending on the results from the transaction side of the house, the US banking industry could report significantly reduced earnings for the rest of 2019 and beyond. And the credit for this mess begins and ends with the FOMC. We recall the sage wisdom of George S. Moore in the wonderful 1987 book "The Banker's Life" as told by our friend Martin Mayer:
"I've always agreed with Milton Friedman that the Federal Reserve was more responsible for the Depression than any collection of bankers or businessmen or politicians, but I don't think you can blame any individuals. In 1929, the Fed did not know what was happening. If they had known, they wouldn't have had any ideas of what to do about it, and if they'd known what to do there wasn't anybody around who could have done it."
JPM CEO Jamie Dimon was smart enough to go long duration in Q3 2018, yet the leader of the largest universal bank in the world is now telling us that his carry on assets is falling. The carry on his $2 trillion portfolio of earning assets is falling. The logical endpoint of this situation is insolvency for the largest bank in the US.
Meanwhile, those brave souls in the world of mortgage lending and servicing who are actually short-duration are about to get annihilated in the third quarter. Could we see a down mark of $10 billion in mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) in Q3 2019 for the owners of the $120 billion in mortgage servicing? To paraphrase Rocket in "Guardians of the Galaxy": "Oh yeah."
If the guidance of JPM CEO Dimon does not adequately illustrate the insanity of negative interest rates, there is nothing else we can say. As a growing number of analysts are realizing, we must raise interest rates to save the global economy by restoring the carry on– and thus the value of — of financial assets. Any other course is collective suicide. Forget the Europeans and the Japanese. They are doomed. The US must lead the way out of the negative interest rate trap. But does Fed Chairman Jerome Powell have the courage to reject the past decade of Fed policy and lead the way?

Fig. 01. Andreas Esau's godot character for his tutorial series
The good peple of Godot are preapring to release v2.1.1 (RC2) which is full of crucial fixes and a few features here and there.
Preparing new builds from the stable 2.1 branch for an upcoming 2.1.1 (those builds would likely be RC2). I'd love some early feedback on them to ensure there is no obvious regression in the current 2.1 branch. Those binaries on GitHub are not packed as the official ones yet (will do tonight), but the tools binaries should be usable already on Linux, OSX and Windows.
As you can see they are ready to release it but first they want to test it (which can be found on their gihub godot-builds page) as to make sure no other bugs were introduced. Get on the hype train because Godot is THE community to be in now if you love FOSS and game development. The devs led by Juan Linietsky are making incredible progress towards v3 which will bring:
- a complete rewrite of the 3D renderer
- OpenGl 3 support
- PBR rendering
- a complete rewrite of the shader language
- VR support
- review of the 2D system (no more sprites, but textures on planes which should increase performance but also make certain things easier to achieve for the game dev.: like rotating stuff around pivots etc.)
- and much much more

Cabot Energy announced plans to raise $3.7 million in capital through a discounted share rights issue on Tuesday, sending shares downwards.
The oil and gas company said it had already conditionally raised £2,082,899 (approx. $2.7 million) at an issue price of 10 pence per share.
It said it is also proposing to raise the additional £770,000 (approx. $1 million) through the issue of up to 7,700,000 shares at the same price per share.
Scott Aitken, Chief Executive Officer, said: "This Fundraising will facilitate the partial settlement of amounts owed to the Group's creditors, predominantly trade creditors of Cabot Canada, following cost overruns of the Canadian work programme early in 2018, before the new executive team took over. We continue to engage in constructive discussions with our creditors and would like to thank them for their continued support as we secured discounts and rescheduling of payments due."
James Dewar, Independent Interim Non-Executive Chairman of Cabot Energy, added: "The proposals outlined today deliver the short-term capital required to safeguard Cabot Energy's future. It follows a forensic assessment of the Company's financial position and consideration of all available options, including asset sales, and what is being recommended by the Board we believe is in the best interest of all Shareholders. The funds will enable the Company to deliver on its creditor settlement agreements and provide a platform for the growth financing plan by the end of Q1 2019."
Cabot Energy is an AIM-listed company. It has operations in Australia, Canada as well as Italy.
Shares in the firm (LON:CAB) are currently trading -41.50% as of 12:16PM (GMT).
Elsewhere across the markets, Kodal Minerals shares (LON:KOD) rose after the company said it had completed drilling at its Bougouni Lithium Project.
In the Retail sector, Debenhams shares (LON:DEB) were up after the department store said it had secured an additional £40 million in funding.

It feels like only yesterday we hung up the cabled controllers of our original PlayStation when Sony released the PS2, now it looks like owners of the PS4 might have to say goodbye and farewell to their beloved consoles.
The PS4 made its debut over five years ago, back in 2013, and now Sony has sold 91.6 million PlayStation 4 consoles globally – but all good things must come to an end.
This could down to sales, or even the possibility customers will see the PS5 sooner than they thought.
Back in 2018 Sony told the Wall Street Journal it wouldn't be likely to release the new console until 2021, however it's been reported on the website DualShockers the PS5 could be hitting shelves as soon as later 2019.
This may mean the end to the PS4 as out with the old and in with the new as they say.
In the last five years this fourth generation of console has been pretty epic – it's undergone a number of hardware updates in that time and Sony even released the PS4 Slim which meant it was much more compact with a few more updates made.
But, as Polygon reported, last year Sony said it was entering the end of its cycle, as every console does at some point and that's when they start getting into gear with something new.
This is where the PS5 comes in – well maybe, that's if there's no shortage on parts or any other problems.
DualShockers reported this idea of getting PS5 consoles on shelves in time for Christmas 2019 – because that's the obvious time to release a new console – can only happen as long as enough monolithic ceramic capacitors (MLCC) can be supplied for the Sony's mass amount of devices, which could be a major problem.
Murata Manufacturing and TDK have acknowledged a worldwide shortage for MLCC because the component is heavily used at present, and manufacturers are struggling to keep up with the demand.
Some modern cars and upcoming technology such as 5G smartphones are just some of the new tech that requires MLCCs.
Then whether there will be enough parts ready in time for PS5 production is unknown.
It looks like it's all still up the in air, so if you've got a PS4 don't be giving up on the ol' girl quite yet, she still has some life in her – and of 1887 games to play, so it doesn't look like you'll have a dull day until the release of the PS5. Whenever that actually is.

Full Spectrum CBD, Broad Spectrum CBD, and CBD Isolate are terms referring to the type of cannabinoids (or naturally occurring chemicals) found in a CBD product. Knowing the differences and unique characteristics between the three types are important for every CBD user. This will help in making the most informed decisions on which product is best for you.
CBD Isolate
CBD Isolates are just as the name suggests–CBD that is isolated from all other cannabinoids. During the extraction process from the cannabis plant, all cannabinoids and additional plant compounds (oils, flavonoids, terpenes) are removed leaving the purest forms of CBD. These products are free of THC, meaning there's no risk of psychoactive effects with their use.
Full Spectrum
Full Spectrum CBD products undergo fewer processes and all the natural compounds found in the cannabis plant (cannabinoids, flavonoids, oils, and terpenes) are included in the extract. This includes trace amounts of THC, which may potentially show up on drug tests. While the benefits of cannabinoids can be experienced individually, the effect of all the elements found in the plant working together in synergy enhances their therapeutic benefits, creating what's referred to as the "entourage effect".
Broad Spectrum
Broad Spectrum is sort of a middle ground between the other two spectrums. Similar to Full Spectrum, Broad Spectrum CBD preserves the other natural compounds found in the cannabis plant. This results in the beneficial entourage effect. However, like the Isolate forms, THC is removed completely. In other words, think of Broad Spectrum as Full Spectrum without the of THC.
The Entourage Effect
As noted above, Full Spectrum and Broad Spectrum CBD products include a range of additional cannabinoids (CBG, CBN, CBC, CBDA, and other minor cannabinoids) that are found in the plant. While individually beneficial, they are especially powerful when working together synergistically.
Due to the entourage effect, Broad Spectrum and Full Spectrum cannabinoid profile products are far more popular and often deemed more beneficial than just Isolate CBD. Broad Spectrum utilizes all of the cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids with exception to THC. This provides superior health benefits that overcome the limitations of isolate CBD.
Though heavily stigmatized with the United States and other countries, THC does have an abundance of medicinal benefits. It's been shown to be a supreme pain reliever, to dramatically reduce symptoms that accompany chemotherapy and radiation, to improve sleep, and more.
Proper Hemp Co. Broad Spectrum CBD Products
To ensure the highest quality products to our users, Proper Hemp takes the extraction process a step further. We remove any residual THC from the hemp extract before formulating it into our CBD products. While many CBD companies may leave the legally allowed 0.3% of THC content in their products, Proper Hemp Co. extracts this THC out to provide CBD products to mainstream users without risk of job loss. Certificates of Analysis are provided upon request.
Proper Hemp Co Broad Spectrum CBD extract is 85% Cannabinoids, in which Cannabidiol (CBD) makes up 90% of the Cannabinoids present. We preserve the full spectrum of non-psychoactive phytocannabinoids and synergistic compounds. Our broad spectrum CBD includes still includes cannabigerol (CBG), cannabinol (CBN), cannabichromene (CBC), and over 40 naturally preserved terpenes.
Broad Spectrum CBD is not currently associated with any extreme side effects. Some people report digestive upsets or mild mood changes. However, current research suggests that negative side effects from CBD are rare. It's unlikely that you will experience any serious harm by taking this substance. CBD also does not lead to severe negative health effects, abuse, or dependence like many pharmaceutical drugs. Nonetheless, Proper Hemp always recommends discussing with a physician prior to adding new dietary supplements to one's routine.

Spotify playlists are important for unsigned bands
Daytime radio is dominated by major label artists. Consequently as an unsigned band it is incredibly difficult to secure day time radio play-listing. Hiring a radio plugger is expensive and for unsigned artists the cost frequently outweighs the returns. Faced with these challenges Spotify provides a powerful and credible alternative way for unsigned artists to build buzz and earn an income.
Relevant reading and resources
Although landing a place on an official Spotify playlist can have a dramatic impact on your income, competition is fierce. Therefore, getting your music on independent playlists like Lost On Radio can provide a vital stepping stone to build online buzz to get on Spotify's radar.

So I often find myself feeling stuck and not knowing what I want or how to accomplish it when I do. Today was no different. I had a task to complete (write this post) and I put it off until the last minute. At this last minute, I started to feel justified in putting it off until tomorrow because I was sooo tired and I had run out of time and I didn't know what to write about and blah blah blah… as usual.
But I have a new tool in my box these days and it's called self-reflection and it works wonders when I'm subconsciously trying to play small. So I stopped myself when I realised I was just making excuses. I mean, running out of time?? What a cop out. My time is not up yet and hopefully won't be for a long time. Time is also precious and we should be taking responsibility, utilising it to its full potential and expecting more of ourselves than playing the small game we've been raised to play. we're capable of so much more.
It's time to shine. Stop making excuses to play small just because the rest of the world says it's ok. It's time to build a better life and it starts with the elimination of excuses. It doesn't have to all happen in one day but it does usually happen one day at a time. So today I choose to start moving, to create and deliver, to rise to the occasion, to speak todays truth.
I know it's a small offering but it feels good to get it done. Hopefully, it will help someone out there get up off their butts too and take one little step towards accomplishing their dreams. I'm gonna go get mine are you ready to go get yours? Comment below and let me know what your next step is going to be. Let's get over our fears and frustrations, create a life we love and accomplish our dreams together.

About this book
The open source Eclipse has proven to be a best-of-class, extensible application development framework. Out of the zip file, Eclipse offers many tools for developing Java applications including wizards, unit testing, debuggers, and editors. However, these tools do not support the development of enterprise applications.
Up until this point, an enterprise developer using Eclipse had to spend a large amount of time locating and evaluating plug-ins to build a suite of enterprise tools. The Eclipse Web Tools project has changed that by providing a comprehensive tools kit for developing enterprise applications called the J2EE Standard Tools (JST). JST along with WST (Web Standard Tools) will make Eclipse a much more complete application development framework for Java developers.
Pro Eclipse JST covers these J2EE Standard Tools in detail. It's essentially a wide range of plug-ins for developing and integrating Servlets, JSPs, EJBs, and more that most other enterprise Java developers use on a daily basis into the Eclipse framework and IDE for use and professional practice.

This column first appeared in Sunday Times Lifestyle on 2 June 2019:
I recently had an interesting debate with this guy I once dated. Let's call him 'X'. We got together about a billion years ago for half a second, until he ghosted me. He then reappeared all apologetic six or seven years later and now we're sort of friends, or just chatting, or it's complicated, or something, I don't know yet, stop pressuring me, why does everything need a label?
Truth is, when X reappeared, I'd kind of just started seeing someone else, but I carried on chatting to X anyway. The kids today call it 'cushioning'. You keep someone onboard as a cushion, in case your other thing doesn't take off. Yes, I know, I know, I'm a terrible person.
On discovering he was a cushion, 'X' said that he believes, wait, let me give it to you verbatim straight out of WhatsApp. He believes, '… if that guy is the right one, you would know and you wouldn't talk to any other guys. At least that's how I am and what I'm looking for.'
I don't know, X, I feel differently about it. I can't figure out if it's because I'm old now, so I've been burnt a few times and have learnt to tread carefully. Or because I'm old now, and over the years I've discovered that I'm a terrible judge of character. Of course, I'm as judgmental as anything, but that's a different kind of judgy.
These days, I'm so often surprised off my feet by people in my life, who decide to have sudden personality transplants and turn into strangers, douche-holes or liars. And if I can't trust my judgement of people I've known intimately for five or ten years, how on earth am I supposed to trust ones I've only known for a second?
So, that's why it takes me a moment
to figure out how I feel about someone. And by a moment I mean anything from two
to four years.
At the end of last year, I got one of those Facebook notifications to mark my friend anniversary with my most recent long-term ex. Even though I'm terminally bad at maths, even I could tell that the numbers looked wrong. I counted the years out on my fingers and discovered I had only accepted my boyfriend's Facebook friend request two years into our relationship. That's some untrusting madness, even for me. It takes taking things slowly to a whole new level.
So obviously I disagree with my ghoster-date-cushion-guy-whatever-thingy. You can't just know at a glance how you feel about someone. I believe it takes time to get to know them, and even longer to trust them.
To really know someone's heart and assorted innards, you need to see them sick, meet their friends, snoop in their medicine cabinet, borrow (and like) their deodorant. You need to see how they manage a crisis, or a cockroach, how they deal with the end of a loo roll, or the end of a carton of milk, what your kitchen looks like when they're done in it, and what toppings they like on their pizza. You also need them to have seen you naked/sick/moody/PMSing/hangry, and still get a WhatsApp from them the next day. That kind of traction doesn't happen overnight.
Although my entire argument confirms that I'm really just as clueless now as when I started dating over two decades ago. Because sure, you can choose to go with your gut and dive in feet first, like my ghoster-cushioning-mate does. Or you can hold out, be cautious, take your time and grow trust like ivy, and still have the rug pulled out from under you five years into the relationship. That's love for you, it laughs with a snort as soon as you think you've figured it out.
Delicious as ever. I've missed you – now that I live in Aberdeen (EC not UK).

This presentation was delivered at the joint HEA/UKCISA Internationalisation of Pedagogy and Curriculum in Higher Education Conference that took place at the University of Warwick on 16th and 17th June 2011.
This session presented and explored the results from an Edinburgh Napier University Teaching Fellow funded project.
The project used three staged focus groups to investigate perceptions of key assessment terms such as discuss interpret and critically evaluate. The terms were looked at from the perspectives of four groups: UK direct entrant students UK lecturers Chinese students and Chinese background UK lecturers. Although there was some agreement perceptions differed greatly in different cultures and subjects and by different people. In fact one-size fits all Study Skills guides glossaries differ greatly from the reality of the use of these terms what these four groups understood them to mean and what the expectations of them was.

Driving across the bridge into Shikoku, my driver (a close friend of mine who had guided me through my first few years in Japan) turned down the music momentarily. I knew the cost of driving over a multi-kilometer bridge would be proportionally much higher than I could possibly reimburse with the funds I had raised for this journey. No, his conversation had nothing to do with bridge costs. He was simple, and complete in his sentiment:
"You're about to go on an adventure"
He paused, then turned the music back up to a volume high enough to drown out any remainder of conversation as he paid the enormous toll with a smile. How lucky am I to have such friends?
I hadn't really thought about it that way, though. An adventure? Really? I'd always wanted to go on an adventure, but I hadn't thought of this as such. It was more of a promise, but that promise drifted in and out as we bumbled our way to the first temple.
Instead I filled my thoughts with checklists. Did I have everything? Did I have my sleeping bag? Yes – Bivy Sack? Check. Wallet? Yes. But something was missing. I know it wasn't the henro hat, white clothes, or night utensils for food. SO what was it? I had my camping chopsticks and I had settled things. Officially homeless, I had given up my apartment so it wasn't that. Maybe I forgot… No… I think… Wait, yeah I had…
The car stopped.
I looked outside, at the clock, and then back out. 4:50. The temple would close in 10 minutes, but I still didn't have all of the items I needed to move one. Where was I going to sleep tonight? Wait… umm, I don't even know what I'm doing here…. I started through my checklist again. I had a towel… What was it?
So many thoughts like these jostled about for attention while my friend stood outside and waited. A seasoned traveler, he could easily see the look on my face, taking it with stride. He took out a cigarette and just waited.
"Okay… umm… Well, I guess it's time to go." I thought. I laced up my shoes, opened his car door and stepped out into an open parking lot.
I remember he stood next to his car smoking, and I remember the temple. The wood, etched with faded designs with roofs cutting swiftly through the sky to shade the thousands of walking ohenro who planned to start their journey here. I remember a mannequin with a variety of henro-fashion, and a gift shop. Across from the temple lay a long road with little homes fitted with their own jet-black roofs, beset by small fields of rice and lined with the sounds of early summer cicada.
I looked back to my friend. He had already taken my backpack out of his trunk and finished smoking. I wanted to plead to be taken home. What is this? This isn't me. An adult rendered childish by the idea of a hike without an exact location to call 'home' to return to… Who was this person so scared? Of course I could fly to America and stay with my parents if need be, but the cost of plane tickets made that idea just as crazy as giving up on the first day, renting an apartment nearby and just stalling that first step forever.
No, it was time to go. But something was missing…
I smiled, my friend said something and I think we hugged before he jumped in his car for the long and expensive drive home.
I looked around again. Such an empty parking lot. One side fit nicely against an array of older Japanese homes, another side simply touched a nearby field (with a convenience store in the distance). And there was an old man under an overhang next to the road.
I remember clearly his quizzical glance. The look of a walker who was beginning his 6th revolution around Shikoku, this time in memory of his late wife. How could I forget that look of slight confusion mixed with a desire to impart knowledge of the first steps? I don't know, but I knew he knew something. So I walked over and said hello.
I cannot begin to express how much help this man will have given me. As of yet, I didn't know he planned to make sure I knew every good place to sleep on the cheap. I didn't know he planned to help teach me the correct temple procedure. And I clearly didn't know he planned to tell me how unnecessary my mosquito net would be in the summer heat.
Instead I knew just two things….
I can probably sleep under this roof if this guy doesn't mind.
That and I had forgotten my toothbrush.

— Complication, dial and case, Patek Philippe's latest take on the split-seconds chronograph is a pure expression of the brand's identity.
Patek Philippe has a unique relationship with the chronograph. It may come as a surprise, but what is to many just another complication is fundamental for the Geneva manufacture. Its hand-wound chronographs have long been the brand's pride and are treated with a level of care and sophistication that never ceases to amaze. It is all the truer for its most sophisticated evolution, the split-seconds, also known as rattrapante, which Patek Philippe deems an equal of the minute repeater. Patek is of one the few brands to fully acknowledge the highly technical nature of that complication and to actually keep working on making it better. The 5370P Split-Seconds Chronograph is therefore not just another replica watches for sale that Patek Philippe launched during the 2015 edition of the Baselworld fair. But its movement, the CHR 29-535 PS, is not the only reason for this special status.
Replica Patek Philippe UK platinum watches also hold a prominent position within the brand's collections. As a true manufacture hell-bent on creating exquisite cases, Patek Philippe has first-hand knowledge of how difficult it is to shape and polish that metal is. Its rarity, price, hue and prestige set it apart from all other precious metals. In order to reflect that position, all platinum Pateks are signed with a diamond, set at 6 o'clock between the case's lugs and the 5370P is no exception.
And then there is the 5370P's dial. It is one of the very few available today that are entirely made of black Grand Feu enamel. The mere polishing of its surface requires a total of three hours by a skilled dial-maker, not to mention the early stages of its manfacturing which include a prolonged and risky firing process at high temperature. White Grand Feu enamel is much more popular because it reveals all the qualities of that technique. Black enamel reserves its depth, smoothness and unique shine for the expert eye. Never having ceased to offer enamel dials, even in the darkest hours of the watchmaking industry, Patek Philippe knows how to manufacture them, how precious they are and how to treat them : like a flagship.
The 5370P combines three features, any one of which is a Patek Philippe speciality in and of itself. Seldom have they been united within one single fake watches UK. The 5370P is therefore a perfect summary of Patek Philippe's art of watchmaking. But it is a bit more than just that. It boasts a new ridged and satin-finished caseband. This type of discreet design change, which the brand's design department regularly implements without really publicising them, is the sign of a permanent quest for perfection. The 5370P looks like the epitome of Patek Philippe, but it is unlike any other one before it, and that is a constant for the Geneva manufacture.

Mack: A Must Win In Tampa For Steelers
The term "must win" is thrown around pretty loosely in sports these days.
Go back to April and you'll find baseball fans calling random Tuesday nighters on the west coast "must win." Hockey fans will throw a "must win" at you for a Thursday night face off against the Buffalo Sabres in early February. In reality though, it's rare to find victories absolutely necessary when you're just three games in to a season.
Here the Steelers are though, in Tampa for a Monday night game that could go a long way toward deciding whether the rest of the 2018 season means much at all.
Their All-Pro running back is in Miami, spending more time on jet skis than in spikes and gaining the kind of pounds you can't exchange for dollars. Not to mention that the team is open to trade offers on him that include anything more than the 3rd Round draft pick they'll get in compensation when he leaves in free agency.
Their All-Pro wide receiver is "frustrated" and "pissed off" that his team isn't winning, and probably more so that reporters have an interest in his seemingly disingenuous public facade as an always-smiling, super-happy, branding/marketing/endorsement machine.
Their defense resembles an unarmed line of Peace Corps volunteers attempting to stand tall against a German Panzer division.
Oh, and their franchise quarterback is 36-years old and being tasked with scoring at least 36 points per game just to keep his team in it, but due to elbow issues can't seem to get the ball more than 36 yards downfield with great accuracy.
Without a win in the first two weeks, the Steelers have everything going against them.
A loss would send them into the depths of the AFC, staring up at a middling-at-best division, as one of just four winless teams in the NFL.
Would a bounceback be possible? Sure. Probable though? Absolutely not. Bouncing back doesn't necessarily mean the Steelers would go to the playoffs, either. Five years ago they started 0-4 and "bounced back" to win eight of their final 12 games, still missing the postseason at 8-8.
The numbers in this case don't lie: Teams that start 0-2 have less than a 5% chance of making the playoffs. 0-3 teams see their chances fall to about 2.5%. It's safe to say that an 0-2-1 start wouldn't exactly be paving the "Stairway to Seven" with rose petals. It'd be more like carpet tacks or hot coals.
A wasted season at this point in Ben Roethlisberger's career isn't just another missed chance at a Lombardi Trophy during a Super Bowl-or-bust window, it's a squandered opportunity to take advantage of what certainly appears to be a down year for the New England Patriots, who've started the year 1-2 and acted as a roadblock to the Steelers' Super Bowl hopes on multiple occasions.
It's very likely we've seen the end of the "Killer B's" era of Ben, Antonio Brown, and Le'Veon Bell, if only because Bell is out here liking tweets that suggest he'll never play for Pittsburgh ever again.
It's also likely that a Steelers' loss in Tampa tonight will end any legitimate chance they have at a championship in 2018.
That makes tonight's game, just the third of the season, a "must win," regardless of how early in the season it is.

Code Club finished the term with a very exciting visit from Mr Lingley, father of Isobel and Charlotte in the Juniors and Alexandra in the Infants. Mr Lingley works for Microsoft and shared some fascinating information about some of the company's latest developments. The Code Club pupils were a very enthusiastic audience and asked some interesting questions. They got to try out an awesome app that we can't tell you about yet (!) and Mr Lingley has kindly provided them with a digital version of their work, along with Microsoft goodies.
One Code Club member, Dan, said, "The visit was inspiring and I'm looking forward to this new technology coming out. I am thinking about being a coder when I grow up, but now I know I don't need a degree in Coding - you can do a whole range of degrees from sociology to physics to work in the coding industry."
A big thank you to Mr Lingley - it was great to hear that with some hard work, it is possible to work in an industry that is such fun!

How Do I Become a Photojournalist?
Photojournalists are visual storytellers who work in sports, news, and documentary production. Some photojournalists are self-taught, but employers often require a bachelor's degree in journalism or communications. While training is an important element, a photojournalism career requires a strong portfolio.
Career Overview
Traditionally, many photojournalists have specialized in an area such as still photography or videography; however, technology has required photojournalists to broaden their skill sets to remain competitive. In addition to strong camera and computer skills, photojournalists must have strong digital production skills, as well as writing and interviewing skills.
Important Facts About Photojournalists
|Job Growth (2016-2026)*
|-6% (for all photographers)
|Median Salary (2019)**
|Similar Occupations
|Architect, graphic designer, video editor
|Work Environment
|Frequent travel, both domestic and international locations
Sources: *U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, **PayScale.com
Formal Training
Programs teaching the basics of photojournalism can be weekend workshops to degree programs at community colleges, art institutes, and universities. Degree programs may provide both technical knowledge and experience through student-run newspapers, websites, and television stations. School career centers may also provide access to internships and employers. Many schools offer bachelor's and master's degrees in journalism or communications with a photojournalism concentration. Coursework may include:
- Basics of photography
- Shot composition
- Lighting
- News writing and editing
- Media ethics and law
Whether you're an experienced photographer trying to break into news, a student seeking an internship or a recent grad applying for your first job, a strong portfolio demonstrates your skills and presents your best work in an organized manner to potential employers. Portfolios may be presented online, as slides, or placed on a CD or flash drive. In any form, a portfolio should display:
- Technical skills, such as color correction, shot composition, and lighting
- Journalistic skills, with accurate and informative captioning
- Images that are best suited to the specific job
Skills Required
Photojournalists often have just one opportunity to get a shot that can make or break a story. While education may provide basic photography and journalism skills, successful photojournalists, from paparazzi to war correspondents, must possess additional abilities, such as:
- Persistence
- Speed
- Flexibility
- Resourcefulness
- Ability to handle stress and deadline pressure

One of the trends-within-a-trend that is starting to make waves: Feedback 3.0 :
- FEEDBACK 1.0 (one of those early web phenomena) saw outraged individuals posting scathing reviews, feedback and complaints, often to the delight of other netizens. Brands remained unaware or chose not to listen, dismissing these outbursts the way they'd dismissed any kind of customer dissatisfaction for decades.
- FEEDBACK 2.0 (which we're in right now) is about these rants—and some raves—having gone 'mass'(no, make that MASS!). The long-predicted conversation is finally taking place, albeit amongst consumers and not, as intended, between corporations and consumers. Companies have started to take note, but to a large degree still choose to listen, not talk back, trying to 'learn' from the for-all-to-see review revolution. Which is surprising, to say the least, since a quick and honest reply or solution can defuse even the most damaging complaint.
- FEEDBACK 3.0 (which is building as we speak) will be all about companies joining the conversation, if only to get their side of the story in front of the mass audience that now scans reviews. Expect smart companies to be increasingly able (and to increasingly demand) to post their apologies and solutions, preferably directly alongside reviews from unhappy customers. Expect the same for candid rebuttals by companies who feel (and can prove) that a particular review is unfair or inaccurate, and want to share their side of the story.

Hi everyone, the term is almost over and the tournaments are coming. The third Grand Slam of the year is here with the qualifying for Wimbledon started, and we can always learn from the best players. Learning is not only how to hit a bigger stroke but mostly how to solve problems, and at the ATP level, this may be the main item to have in the bag. Mental skills, to be a problem solver instead of a passive sufferer, can make or break both a professional player as well as a junior player.
I saw this picture (below) of the stats of the Simone Bolelli vs Sam Groth match in Wimbledon's qualies a few days ago and I instantly saw an amazing unbalance in one of the stats that has a hypnotic effect: ACES, the loser of the match connected 30 aces in a grass court match vs 3 from the winner.
What would any player with a normal mindset do, if finds an opponent that is not allowing him to play, just watch 30 aces fly by?
I have seen many junior players in matches dropping phrases like "he's playing off his face" or "I cannot do anything" and just leave the match mentally before thinking of further solutions for the problems presented by the opposition.
In this match, Bolelli was tough enough mentally to endure 30 aces delivered by Sam and still get the win. He dealt with a strength as big as a 200+kms per hour serve but he made sure he was not losing his calm in his own serving games, even though he only delivered 3 aces. His numbers in win % off his first serve (74%) and especially on his second serve (71%) were incredibly strong and steady V's more extreme numbers from Sam in first serve (84%) and his second serve (54%).
This highlights one big truth in tennis: everyone can be beaten! All we have to do is to stay on the court and not try to go extreme in any solution. If one opponent is beating us with chaos and touches, we cannot try to enter his game and beat him with a style we have not practiced in training and probably not familiar with.In then case I am an aggressive baseliner and work my opponents out, I might not like to start hitting first serves over my natural 3/4s speed or rush on the first shot to finish points.
Looking back at Bolelli, he knew very well that his serve is not as strong as Sam Groth's but still tried to make high percentages of first serves and play a solid pattern of serve and first ball in both serves, to have high percentages of won points on serve. Trying not to feel intimidated or frustrated by all these aces and unreturned serves Groth was delivering, he stayed calm and tough mentality, which paid off with a remarkable win in a surface in which he was not the favorite. Bolelli was relentless in his intensity from his groundstrokes and made only 5 unforced errors on his backhand versus 28 from Groth, highlighting his consistency and exposed Sam's lack of it on the day.
What would have happen if Bolelli would have tried to serve 200kms+ bombs to match Sam's power and aces stats? He certainly would not have too many first serves in which would have exposed him to big forehand returns and piercing slices from the backhand or rushes to the net from Sam. The snowball effect when one player is hot on his serve and another one going for too much could have resulted in a 2 and 2 comfortable victory for the one who is not leaving his strengths area.
There us always plenty to learn from matches, and I hope this lesson from the pros stays with you during this holidays' tournaments. Enter the court knowing that a challenge can be lying ahead, but you still can try everything using your strengths to expose your opponent's weaknesses and solve problems. You have been training with your coaches during the term, have done all the adjustments needed to succeed being competitive against all kind of opponents! See you on court!!!
