ISLAMABAD — Gulbadin Naib's appointment on Friday as Afghanistan's captain for the cricket World Cup has not gone down well with the team's two senior players.
Rashid Khan, who was named Twenty20 skipper, and all-rounder Mohammad Nabi have criticized the selection committee's decision to remove Asghar Afghan from the captaincy in all the three formats.
"Being a senior member of the side (and) having seen the rise of Afghanistan cricket, I don't think it's the right time to change the captain before the WC," Nabi wrote on Twitter .
Nabi also felt the team gelled under the leadership of Afghan, who he thought was the right man to lead Afghanistan in the World Cup in England and Wales beginning in May.
Rashid, the world's top-ranked Twenty20 leg-spinner, also shared his thoughts on Twitter, writing that he disagrees "with the decision as it is irresponsible (and shows) bias" and that Afghan's "captaincy is highly instrumental for team success."
"With just months to go for such a mega event like World Cup, changing the captain will cause uncertainty and also team morale will be affected," he wrote.
Afghan was stripped of the test captaincy after leading Afghanistan to a historic victory over Ireland in only its second test match last month. Middle-order batsman Rahmat Shah has replaced Afghan as the test captain.
Chief selector Dawalt Ahmadzai defended his decision to appoint Naib as captain for the World Cup, saying it was for the better future of the team.
"Asghar Afghan, who captained team Afghanistan for a period of around four years, achieved a lot and made the country proud, and I hope Gulbadin Naib will be able to continue his legacy at the helm of the team's affairs," Ahmadzai said in a statement.
Afghanistan will open its World Cup campaign against defending world champion Australia on June 1 in Bristol.
A 23-member Afghanistan squad left on Friday for South Africa, where it will play six practice matches during the training camp.
Ahmadzai said the team will return to Kabul, at which point a 15-member World Cup squad will be announced.

Sander enters the room looking as if he has to bend to fit in a regular sized room. We are used to tall boys, but his limbs seem to have an element of infinity to them if you were to look at them for too long they might forget to ever end. He kindly removes his shoes and joins us for a chat. It is soon evident that this boy cannot talk without the use of his hands, which wave almost uncontrollably accompanying his words.
Sander at Elite Models talks candidly, and about the fact that children say things with no agenda, and in that fact he exposes a child like way of expressing himself. Honesty walked in the door with him and we are left with a sense that anything we might ask he would answer. His slight accent lingers on words, as if the desire to express his thoughts was stronger than a language barrier. In this way he tells us about his encounters with chocolate shop man, along with his double life; one second playing with children in his day care job, the next walking down a Prada runway.

Basic facts
The classroom teacher took the accelerated learning group everyday for 15-20 minutes. In addition to this, the group also received addition block teaching during the teacher's release day. The initial decision to do this related to manageability and also provided optimum learning time to be spent with these children. This increased the possible number of sessions that could be taken over the eight week period.
The attendance of most of the students was excellent. Those that missed the intensive sessions often took the initiative to team up with another child from the group to catch up. The children demonstrated increased motivation as the programme progressed. There was enthusiasm and keenness to attend all lessons, even if that meant staying within breaks or missing literacy. It is felt that the reason for this is that students had an equal say in every step of the process, thus the teacher had them on board from the word go! Another reason for the change of attitude can be attributed to the students experiencing success along the way. The students were keen to know how they were doing and were affirmed by consistent targeted feedback and feed forward.
Intervention starting point was
- Stage 5 basic facts
- Stage 5 place value – with planned focus on forward/backward connections
- Teaching knowledge whilst developing explicit links to strategy.
- Developing stage 4/5 fractions knowledge and strategy.
Trends in data
- Intervention focused on place value understanding to enhance forward/backward knowledge as well as basic facts. Children in both these domains have improved at least two or more stages.
- Students' basic fact knowledge helped them to move within strategy domains.
- Proportion domain shift can be credited to students increased understanding of multiplication basic facts as well as foundation fractions knowledge.
- Some children who tested on GloSS at stage 5 addition/subtraction early part-whole at the beginning of the intervention have since then managed to do double digit part-whole strategies but they could not get to stage 6 as they were unable to do subtraction strategies.
Advice for other teachers and principals
For an intervention like this to be successful, one needs to start from getting the students on board. I have been very open and honest about the programme, outlining where the children were at and where they needed to be. I also invited the students to opt into the programme so that they felt that they were in control of the situation. In an attempt to avoid any stigma, the group was portrayed as the 'selected ones' to be put through the trial. The students were informed of the purpose of the study and the possible benefits of the programme. At all times students knew what the next steps of their learning were going to be and were encouraged to share their learning with their parents.
The facilitator was also a crucial contributor to the success of the programme. It was quite obvious that any queries that I had were going to be received and responded to immediately. The facilitator also kept checking in to see where the children were at and helped to develop possible avenues for progression based on the reflections of the children and the teacher.
The support of parents and the principal has been noted and was immensely appreciated. Both parties took a vested interest in the progress of the students and often checked in with the students about their progress. I also had an open door policy and the parents were in touch with the teacher to discuss progress over the course of the intervention. The students were encouraged to share their learning with their parents and had follow up work that they could do at home.
(Theme 2b)
The principal also checked in with the students who were very proud to talk about their learning. This level of care and genuine interest in student learning ensured that all students knew how important their learning was to us all.
Effective pedagogy in mathematics
- Mathematical communication and language
I have often found that children struggling with mathematics do not understand the language demands of the task and therefore are unable to access the maths in order to succeed in the subject. With this knowledge in mind I ensured that children were given exposure to appropriate language which I modelled consistently. It is important that teachers understand that the language necessary for learning and educational attainment, takes between five to seven years to develop thus needs to be explicitly taught through the use of scaffolding and clear instructions (Cummins, 1978, 2000b cited in Baker 2001). I ensured that I consciously planned for and taught language objectives and mathematical objectives concurrently, to allow the students an "opportunity to learn what is most relevant at the time for them to participate in class, so that they could be fully engaged in learning activities and challenged at an appropriate conceptual level" (Gibbons, 2002, p.13).(Theme 8)
- An ethic of care
For this intervention to be successful I needed to establish an inclusive classroom culture in which the students felt 'safe' to voice their opinions and to clarify or seek support when misunderstandings occurred. I felt that the students needed to feel as if they were in control of the situation and that they were on an equal footing with the teacher to develop the course of the intervention. Wink (2005) asserts that "we learn by reading, talking, writing, listening, experiencing, engaging, interacting… and we do it better if we are in a safe and secure environment" (p. 18). I have taken care of the way I share children's learning needs and I model to the children how to 'take risks' in their thinking as well in their clarification so that they feel safe to have a go.(Theme 1)
I also ensured that all children respected each other and set an expectation of the way they communicated during teaching sessions. I have noticed a positive flow-on effect in other areas of the curriculum and this is especially evident in the way the intervention children seek clarification from others in other group teaching situations or when they were trying to catch up when they had missed a session.
- Arranging for learning
During all group-teaching sessions I ensured that children were provided the opportunity to think, pair and share before sharing back to me and the whole group. I also allowed time after pair sharing whilst other group members asked questions or paraphrased what they had heard. Firstly this ensured that everyone was listening but ultimately it helped to consolidate through listening to explanations and provided multiple opportunities to learn the new concepts being explored.
Opportunity was also provided for children to work independently on their goals and next learning steps, as well as in pairs or small group sessions to practice, clarify or debate thinking. In providing a learning environment inclusive of small group debates I felt that children were able to collaboratively make sense of ideas and engage in mathematical arguments in order to make meaning of new learning. It is important to note that any pair or small group debates occurred more successfully when the children were familiar with the task at hand and each member understood their roles, such as taking turns, no put downs when sharing back and allowing time for people to think before they were to respond.(Theme 7)
- Assessment for learning
At the beginning the needs of each child as well of the group were established. Children individually were given their results and the teacher spoke to them about where they were at and where they needed to get to. Children were also told of how they may get there. All programme planning was tailored to the needs of the child and their preferred learning styles. The follow up sessions filtered and became part of the daily classroom programme. Essential to success was the approach of using formative assessment information throughout and therefore the teacher was flexible during the lesson to respond to the needs of the children. This ensured that the teaching and learning was targeted and helped students to consolidate their understanding and clarify any misunderstanding in the process.(Theme 6)
Sharing of goals
Children were given small achievable goals that were monitored and discussed on a daily basis. The students also knew of each other's goals and attempted to support each other in the process. This collegial approach ensured that a climate of risk-taking could be developed and it fostered a climate of joint ownership of the success of all by all. The teacher also shared formative assessment information when any progress was made. No matter how big or small, this was shared and celebrated as a group.
So why was this successful at our school?
The initial training in Auckland left the teacher with a strong sense of purpose. The support from our facilitator is another contributing factor to the success of this pilot programme. She is a knowledgeable and encouraging facilitator who was always there to lend a hand when required. She ensured that the programme was well planned for and executed. Time also played a huge part. The group of students were able to touch base with the teacher every day, discuss confusions and misunderstandings and the withdrawal time provided that extra bit of time for the children to consolidate their thinking.
From the eyes of our students
We all worked as a team and this included our teacher. We all knew we wanted to succeed. We practised and believed that we could do it. We began to feel like we could because every time we tried something new we could do it. It was like our teacher was tricking us because everything looked easy but now we know that all she was doing was giving it to us bit by bit so that we could be successful. We developed new skills and used more strategies - the more we learnt the better we became. We also learnt to combine strategies and looked at a variety of ways to get the answer. We had a say in what we did, for example, we could practice our strategies through games, and we were allowed to work in groups and individually if we wanted to.
About the teacher: Our teacher was very good at showing us how to use the strategies that we knew in a variety of ways. She helped us discover how different strategies worked and showed us relationships between addition and subtraction, multiplication and division. She always told us where we were at and what our next learning steps would be. She made us reflect on our work to help us understand what we had improved on and what we had to work on next. We always were encouraged to compete and beat each other in the way we talked and did maths but we also knew that we had to help each other out so that we all could be successful and nobody would be left behind. My teacher helped make maths fun!
About the facilitator: Ms S helped us by showing us how to do activities and explaining different ways to make learning easy. She always asked us how we were doing and that made us feel very important. We wanted to do better so that we could show her our progress when she came to see us each time (so we could show off our learning).
About our parents: Our teacher told our parents of what we were doing and they kept on asking us how we were doing. Each time our teacher saw our parents she would update them on how well we were doing and showed them what we could work on at home. My teacher talking to my parents made us feel very smart and proud because they got to see us doing so well. It was important for us to have our parents see the progress we were making because we didn't think they thought we were good at maths, but they were wrong! We loved sharing our final results as we were very proud of our success and we wanted them to be just as proud.
About the Principal: Talking to Whaea B was great too because we got to tell her in person how much fun it was and how we had improved. We liked it when she asked us challenging questions and even better when we could answer them! We wanted for her to be proud of us and we wanted her to talk to our parents about how much progress we had made in a short time.
In a nutshell, our teacher made the strategies make sense by giving us clear explanations and examples. She helped us set new goals and reflect on them because she kept telling us that the sky was the limit. We all worked as a team. This means that we worked in a partnership with each other and our teacher.
Our teacher developed activities that helped to fill the gaps that we had in our knowledge and made sure we practised them. She helped us believe that we could do it!
Facilitator's voice
The teacher had strong content and pedagogical knowledge, which gave her an added advantage because she could steer the lessons based on student responses, based on what was noticed during their discussions. The teacher was confident to deviate from the scripted lessons based on the ideas generated as she had a clear understanding of the different pathways that would lead to success.
The teacher had a strong belief in the Numeracy Project and that it has a positive impact on students' learning. The teacher also knew that she had the responsibility to make the Project work for her students.
The teacher also adopted 'teaching as inquiry' approach to undertake this exploratory study as she felt that any intervention programme that is founded on data (from where the child is at) and genuine inquiry would be beneficial in developing a suitable programme for the students. Whilst using the 'teaching as inquiry' approach, the teacher decided to prioritise by using data to determine 'what is important therefore worth teaching'. She consistently reflected and adjusted the programme and often sought advice from the facilitator as to what strategies may work.
The teacher also worked in partnership with the parents who were informed of the progress and were shown work that the students could do at home. The students were also encouraged to share their learning at home and relate back to the teacher how the parents felt or what they were thinking. The teacher had an open door policy and the teacher encouraged the parents to take an active role in their child's learning.
Parent Voice
I knew that my son was a talented writer but I had no hope that he would make such big progress so soon. I'm so excited that he had the potential. He just needed the right learning environment and support. He was my major concern because he was at the bottom for so long - down below trying to find his way up. He just needed to know that his teacher believed he could. He enjoys the teacher and learning! The positive is the partnership that we had between us and you (teacher) and we all encouraged him to improve. My son had competition from his older brothers but I never thought he would progress so much so quickly. I just hope he keeps the momentum going - keep at it both at school and at home. I now just tell him he is on a roll.
This has been captured from just one parent but others have expressed similar joy at their child's success!

Taking the Milwaukee music scene by storm, the members of Redeye have toured the Midwest opening for major country acts for the past several years, garnering a large base of loyal fans. Redeye strikes a compelling mix between the old and the new, with a set list of both contemporary and classic hits from artists like Johnny Cash, Brad Paisley, Chris Young, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and Eric Church. Unpredictable, energetic, and ferocious: there is never a dull moment when Redeye takes the stage.
Redeye's intense yet refined sound comes from the experienced musicianship of its members.Members George (drums), David (keyboard), and Mitch (guitar) have been playing music together for more than half a decade, and each has over ten years of experience playing their respective instruments. They are all classically trained and have been involved in various blues, jazz, and alternative rock projects. Erik (guitar and vocals) has been playing in the Milwaukee country music scene for nearly a decade. His distinguished voice rounds out the band's sound perfectly with a sound heavily reminiscent of old style country. Will (vocals), brings his own unique sense of vocal style to the band, providing both powerful lead performances and tasteful harmonies.
This free event is intended for UW-Madison students, faculty, staff, Wisconsin Union members and their guests. Anyone can become a Union member.

Competitive electric motorcycles—it's no longer a question of if, but rather when. People have long talked about the prospect but over the past eight years, Alta Motors has taken the lead, building a line of provocative electric bikes, then using slick millennial marketing and old-fashioned ride days to spread the word.
If you've already tuned out the idea of an electric motorcycle, that's probably because you haven't ridden one yet. They're surprisingly fast, loaded with torque, and quite fun to ride—once you get used to the relative silence compared to everything else you've ridden in your life. And as Josh Hill has shown at Red Bull Straight Rhythm, they can be competitive with 250cc four-strokes in the right hands and on the right track.
Of course, the Alta is still a work in progress, but its rapid ascent in the motorcycling market raises the question: why aren't people making a bigger deal of the fact that it's an American-made motorcycle?
Maybe it's because the Alta doesn't hail from Milwaukee, the home of Harley-Davidson, or even Bedford, Pennsylvania, where Cannondale tried to plant its flag. This bike was born in Brisbane, California, on the edge of Silicon Valley. And it's not your father's American motorcycle, but rather one made for forward-thinking riders across the planet.

A donor needs to be able to discover your donation link in a couple of seconds of your donation page loading. While he or she may intend to fulfill their commitment, there are several factors which prevent donors from following through. In that sort of noise, it's important to be noticed and find a means to win over donors' hearts. When a donor sets up a recurring donation, they opt to provide a pre-determined quantity of money on a standard basis. Donations could be made and collected prior to a walkathon. For starters, make a list of all of the fundraisers that you want to run and when you would like them to occur.
Based on your relationship with the donor, you can determine that keeping the letter informal is a great strategy. The document is customized to contain all the specifics of the people connected with the donation, the reason of donating and the sum of donation. Then select where you wish to conserve the file on your hard disk. Even though you may use a template, make an effort not to produce the letter appear as such. Join with the website, and a district captain will give you with an overall template for creating personalized, candidate-related political messages on hand-written postcards. From our example, you can add a few things you might need to finish your spreadsheet.
A pledge form is needed to simplify the practice of donating money for a certain purpose. If this is the case, you desire a pledge drive form. For instance, you probably want to boost the range of donors you've got.
Pledges from donors are ideal for nonprofits as they can secure large donation amounts by developing a steady stream of revenue. Pledge reminders are meant for people who have already bought into your mission, but in addition they serve as a chance to make sure your correspondence matches the general messaging of your nonprofit. When it has to do with writing a strong and efficient pledge reminder, here are the most vital aspects you are going to want to concentrate on to motivate your donors.
In many instances, you may use debt in the same style, or as a stand-in for, equity, without the lengthy term dilution of equity. Typically you may use the debt for anything you desire. Venture debt is typically not scalable as it's about the sum of equity you've raised or you'll be raising. Many are always searching for innovative approaches to increase money to prolong the programs they offer to their members. After the ICO, it is going to want to raise large sums money by other ways.
My giving will not ever be the exact same. Giving Tuesday is now big! It was designed to be a collaborative effort.
When many nonprofits and charities utilize an everyday calendar to organize annual fundraisers, we feel that a comprehensive spreadsheet can work wonders in keeping you organized prior to, during, and after every fundraising activity. Equity funding is a critical and in-disposable element of a business, but nevertheless, it ought to be minimized when possible. Assistance with troubleshooting imports and formatting data for import is just provided via consultation. If you're not getting referrals, perhaps you're not providing the service your clients want and you're not like YOU believe.

text: This is a tough one. In a down economy, every expenditure counts. Business owners, managers and CFO/CPAs have (or should have) been scouring the income statement looking for costs that can be cut back. What not to cut... Marketing is one of those costs you cut at your peril. In the case of my clients, the banks, training on loan quality is another. And yet some businesses and banks are making poor choices. Either the chain saw is out instead of a scalpel and costs are getting cut across the board. Or you might be keeping your head in the sand and spending money like you were making (more of) it. When you first get into sea kayaking, the experienced paddlers have the fancy gear. They have dry suits, sleek boats, dry bags, just the right clothes. But even in the Northwest with water temperatures of 40 degrees, you can get most of what you need at Goodwill for clothes and you can rent the boat, life jacket and paddle. You can check around the house for at least five of the ten essentials. And maybe borrow the rest. Needs and wants... Distinguish between what you really need and what is more flash than substance for now. In the book "The Millionaire Next Door" by Thomas J. Stanley and William D. Danko, I learned that most self-made millionaires do not wear Rolex watches and drive fancy cars. In fact, you just wouldn't recognize most of them. I recommend the book. Some expenditures are necessary to keep up appearances. Your marketing needs to be continuous and high quality. There are certainly minimums your clients or customers expect as to clothing and cars. The shop or store needs to be clean. We are in an odd time in which some of our customers will actually be offended if we are spending lavishly on what seem to be unneeded items, especially if we are reducing staff (and therefore customer service) at the same time. Witness the furor over lavish travel. What will bring revenue in the door? When you are ready to circumnavigate Vancouver Island, British Columbia in the Winter invest in the Dry Suit...and maybe some more classes! Until then, dress warmly from Goodwill and scrutinize every expenditure…will it bring revenue in the door? ...will it keep you positioned for the upswing?

Video transcript
Cat: Are there any current or new treatments involved in brain development, in brain health, that we should be looking at?
Professor Gavin Giovannoni, Neurologist: Are there new treatments regarding brain health? Yes, I think there are. I mean there are two components to brain health in people with MS. There's obviously the processes that are specific to MS, so these are the things that cause, slow down the progression of the disease. And so there's two components there; there's the so-called anti-inflammatory drugs, that switches off the MRI lesions and the relapses. And we've got a whole range of these; we've got over ten of these therapies now and in the next year or two there's going to be another two more coming out. One of them is a drug called Dacluzumab, that's given under the skin every four weeks, and the other one is called Ocrelizumab and this is given as an infusion every six months, continuously. And both those drugs will fall into what I would call a high efficacy bracket, they're much more potent in terms of switching off inflammation.
And we're now beginning to realise inflammation is what drives the progression of the disease and makes the brain unhealthy. So the whole concept is to try and shift our treatments to as early as possible when the brain is very healthy and keep it like that and try and get rid of all the inflammation. Then in addition to that we are testing drugs on top of anti-inflammatories.
What you've got to understand is if there's a lot of damage that's already occurred, a lot of the nerve fibres are primed to die off in the future, simply because they've been damaged and they are functioning, but they're not functioning normally, so they're overworking themselves and they die off prematurely. And so what we're looking at now is can we add anything on top of the anti-inflammatories, we call that neuroprotection, stemming from can we protect the neurons. And so we are testing now in a whole lot of what we call early phase trials add-on neuroprotective drugs. And hopefully the next phase of MS drug development will be combinations of anti-inflammatory with a neuroprotection.
And similarly, another way of protecting damaged nerve fibres is to remyelinate them if they're demyelinated and there are some early stage trials now looking at drugs that promote remyelination. We think that those damaged nerve fibres that remain demyelinated are primed to die off in future. So if we can promote remyelination we can protect them, so that's another strategy that's being tested. So yes, we've got a whole lot of new anti-inflammatories coming and then behind those anti-inflammatories I'm predicting we're going to have combination treatments where we will be adding on neuroprotection and remyelination treatment, so it's all very exciting.

The Shameful Support & Practice of Racism (which again runs in the Republican Party)
Does the name Nelson Mandela mean anything to you?
Maybe! Maybe not! But if you're black, it should.
What does Mandela have to do with Ronald Reagan?
Nelson Mandela spent 27 years in jail in an isolated island in South Africa from 1963 to 1990 under the system of apartheid –
Apartheid was a system of institutionalized racial segregation and discrimination in South Africa between 1948 and 1991
Mr. Mandela was one of the "lucky" victims of that inhumane system; several thousand BLACK Africans lost their lives for opposing the apartheid.
Guess which side Ronald Reagan was?
Mr. Reagan had publicly lent the support of his administration, thus the United States, to the system of government in South Africa which resorted to inhumane (including tortures, indiscriminate arrests of Blacks and even murder) measures to enforce it. The Reagan administration did not just offer verbal support for the South African government but he also entered into alliance with the government.

The Ecole Française de Bristol is a non-profit organisation (registered charity 900410) and a limited liability company (reference 2463900).
The mission of the EFB is to provide high-quality teaching through its team of native French teachers. French lessons are tailored to the needs of the children who may attend the School from the age of three in order to develop their speaking, reading and writing skills to fluent levels by the end of the French "cycle élémentaire" (UK Primary School stage). Pupils are given the opportunity to develop and flourish intellectually, educationally, and socially within welcoming French cultural surroundings.
The EFB offers:
I am very pleased to welcome you to the Ecole Française de Bristol's website.
Our small school has a rich history and it is nearly 40 years old. It has successfully developed its services and adapted to the needs of its families.
The school moved into new premises in February 2015 and we are now "settled in".
Thanks to the work of our dynamic and enthusiastic team, to parental involvement and everyone's support, our school enables its pupils to learn French in a warm environment, to use the language every day and to develop speaking skills together with writing skills.
Our pupils' progress and regular feedback from families are evidence of the quality of teaching delivered by our school.
I had great pleasure in becoming the school's Headteacher in September 2017 after having taught different classes there for four years.
I would like to thank the team and parents for the trust that they have placed in me.
I aim to continue the school's excellent work in order to offer quality services, varied teaching projects and to keep alive its community spirit which brings francophone culture to life and enables our beautiful language to flourish.
Mathilde Monnet
Official recognition (homologation) is granted by the French Ministry of Education to schools and teaching institutions abroad that apply the same teaching curriculum as that in the French State Education system.
In January 2005, official recognition (homologation) was granted to the "petite et moyenne sections" (children aged 3 and 4 years and the only class running on a full-time basis) and is annually renewed (subject to submission of a dossier or to an inspection). Under certain terms and conditions, parents can apply for a grant towards the fees for a child attending this class. Please visit the Eduscol website for further information.
This recognition entitles the EFB to belong to the AEFE (Agency for French Teaching Abroad) network. A qualified primary school teacher must oversee the teaching and follow the French National Curriculum. The French Ministry of Education reserves the right to conduct an inspection.
Maternelle (Nursery School) and day classes, as well as holiday club classes are registered with the Office for Standards in Education (Ofsted). They must comply with the regulations laid down by this body with regard to the teaching, well-being, health and protection of a child.
In December 2010, the teaching staff were praised for the quality of teaching following an Ofsted inspection of the nursery school classes. According to the report, "the children are relaxed, happy and enthusiastically participate in the chosen activities".
On taking up residence in the new premises at the Fonthill Centre on 14 February 2015, the EFB was issued with a new reference number : URN (Unique Reference Number) – EY486621.
The Bristol Standard is a nursery school self-evaluation framework and is recognised nationally. The teaching staff can use it not only to appraise their objectives and teaching activities and monitor children's experiences in play and learning, but also to evaluate the operational side and continuing development of the School. The EFB submits a dossier each year to receive a certificate.

I would like to make it clear that I condemn all acts of antisemitism in the strongest possible terms. Any discrimination or hostility based on religion or race is deplorable and there is no place for it in our society. Acts of hatred in any form will not be tolerated, and I am assured that the Government is committed to addressing antisemitism wherever it occurs. Indeed, I am very pleased that the UK became the first country to formally adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance working definition of anti-Semitism.
All institutions, including universities, have a responsibility to provide a safe and inclusive environment. All higher education institutions have a legal obligation for ensuring that students do not face discrimination, harassment, abuse or violence. Universities are expected to have robust policies and procedures in place to comply with the law, and to investigate and swiftly address any hate crime and anti-Semitic incidents that are reported.
In 2015 Universities UK (UUK) was asked to set up a Harassment Taskforce to consider what more can be done to address harassment on campus, including on the basis of religion and belief. It published a directory of case studies detailing the innovative projects universities have developed to address the taskforce's recommendations. Further to this, the Higher Education Funding Council for England provided £1.8 million for projects to improve responses to hate crime and online harassment on campus.
In addition, I welcome the new partnership between the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and the Department for Education, which is providing nearly over £144,000 of joint funding for a new programme to support universities in tackling antisemitism on campus.
Our universities have a proud history of encouraging freedom of speech and freedom of religion. However, I share your view that there is no place in any education institution for hatred and no student should face discrimination, harassment or racism - including antisemitism.
I will continue to do all I can as an officer of the Conservative Friends of Israel to stand against this form of discrimination.

What is "liquid crystal"?
Liquid crystal is a state of matter – like liquid, solid, and gas. The term "liquid crystal" is used to denote a material that exhibits a liquid phase under certain conditions. In order to understand what differentiates a liquid crystal phase from a liquid or solid phase, it is necessary to understand what defines these phases.
The difference lies in the order of matter on a molecular, atomic or subatomic level. Order is a function of the energy stored within matter, and hence a function of the temperature of matter. Thus, one could say that temperature equals motion. There is no motion at absolute zero temperature (0 Kelvin). Very close to absolute zero, a state of matter called the "Bose-Einstein condensate" can exist. A little further away from absolute zero we have solids, which are characterized by limited motion of the molecules, atoms and ions that make up the material. This limited motion is a vibration within the molecule, and an oscillation around a fixed position. In a crystal for example, the centers of gravity within the molecules vibrate around fixed positions on a crystal lattice, while the general orientation of non-spherical molecules vibrates around a preferred orientation.
When a solid melts, this long range order (fixed average position, fixed average orientation many thousands of molecular units across) breaks up. If both long range orders (position and orientation) dissipate at the same time as when the melting point is reached, a liquid phase is formed. In a liquid, there still is some level of order, but only in a short range (i.e. a few molecules across). The hydrogen bonds between water molecules are a good example. When, with increasing temperature, this short range order gets lost and the molecules become completely independent in their motion, we speak about a gas or vapor. Finally, when electrons or other sub-atomic particles lose their order with respect to the rest of the molecule, we speak about plasma.
Nature does not require that each phase is formed: Some materials can go from solid to gas without a liquid phase. Neither does nature require that positional and orientational order get lost in one step and at the same temperature. Depending on environmental conditions such as pressure or solvent concentration in a mixture, phases may be skipped or additional phases may appear when changing the temperature of a material. If positional order gets lost at the melting point, but orientational long range order is maintained up to a higher temperature, a liquid crystal phase is formed. The temperature at which all orientational long range order gets lost is called clearing point, as at such temperature a typically milky liquid crystal turns into a clear fluid.
Positional long range order can get lost in steps while orientational order is maintained. As a result there can be many liquid crystal phases with different geometry and distinct phase transition temperatures between them. In some phases the liquid crystal is aligned in layers. They are called smectic phases and letters are used to differentiate different geometries (smectic A, smC, smI…). Columnar phases have molecules aligned in columns. The liquid crystal phase with no long range positional order is called a nematic phase and it is most widely used in displays.
Liquid crystal phases are useful in displays because they interact with light and electric fields like crystals, but they can move (flow) like liquids, making it possible to use electric fields to change their effect on light.
A typical temperature range of the liquid crystal phase(s) of a single material is only a few degrees. For most materials, that range is well above room temperature. In order to make liquid crystals practical for use in LCD displays, they need to be blended. Mixtures of liquid crystal materials can be formulated so that their temperature range is wide and falls within the operating temperature range requirements of modern electronics devices. Liquid Crystal Fluid suppliers engage in researching new material groups, synthesizing materials, and blending mixtures to achieve the physical properties defined by display manufacturers. Blends contain some 10-25 single substances.
A typical calamitic liquid crystal material that may be used in such blends is '5OCB':
In a volume model it would appear like this:

More Nigerians have continued to exit Libya in the last few days after global outrage that followed the discovery of modern slave network involving blacks in the war torn enclave.
Just hours after the voluntarily return of 144 Nigerians, another aircraft carrying 257 of their compatriots on Wednesday landed at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos.
The spokesperson for the Lagos Airport Police Command, Joseph Alabi, confirmed this in Lagos.
Alabi said the returnees arrived aboard a Libyan Airlines aircraft at the Cargo Wing of the airport at about 1.30 a.m, Wednesday.
He said they were assisted back to Nigeria by the International Organisation for Migration, IOM, and the European Union, EU, after being stranded in the volatile North African country enroute Europe.
Alabi said:"We received another batch of Nigerians early this morning from Libya.
"They comprised of 65 adult females, 179 adult males, seven children and six infants."
He also confirmed that four of the returnees had medical cases and were promptly taken away on an ambulance for treatment.
According to him, the returnees were received by officials of the National Emergency Management Agency, Nigerian Immigration Service, the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons and the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria.
Another set of 144 Nigerians had arrived on Tuesday at about 6.45 p.m. aboard a chartered Buraq Airlines aircraft with registration number 5A-DMG.
They were received at the Hajj Camp area of the airport by the wife of the President, Aisha Buhari, represented by the wife of the Governor of Lagos State, Bolanle Ambode.
Also on ground to receive them was the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Foreign Affairs and Diaspora, Abike Dabiri-Erewa and officials of other government agencies.
The Federal Government said it has a record of 2,778 Nigerian migrants registered in "accessible" detention camps in Libya, ready for repatriation.
The Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in a statement signed by the spokesperson, Tiwatope Elias-Fatile, on Tuesday, said the country's embassy in Libya had been visiting detention camps to identify Nigerians for registration.
The Ministry stated that those registered were issued Emergency Travel Certificates.
The ministry also explained that the embassy, in collaboration with the IOM, repatriates 250 migrants weekly and had returned 3,000 of them so far.
More Nigerians Return from Libya
More Nigerians have continued to exit Libya in the last few days after global outrage that followed the discovery of modern slave network involving blacks in the war torn enclave.

Tick Control Tubes 96 tubes/Carton
Regular price $230.00
- Kills backyard ticks with Lyme disease
- Doesn't harm kids, pets, or environment
- No spray; environmentally friendly
- Easy to use: apply in minutes 2x a year
- Developed at Harvard University School of Public Health
- Works best in New England, the Mid-Atlantic, and the Northern Woods where Lyme disease is concentrated and the Deer tick population is high
When to Apply
- Set Tick Tubes out twice a year, once in the spring (ideally in late April) and once in the summer (ideally in mid-July). If you purchase in late May or June, place your tick tubes out immediately and you will still be able to kill nymphal ticks in June and July. Likewise, if you purchase tubes in August or September, place them out immediaely to kill larval ticks that are still feeding.
- The spring application kills nymphal ticks that emerge in April and feed in the spring and early summer. These are the ticks that most often infect people with diseases. After nymphal ticks get a blood meal, they turn into adult ticks that hatch in the fall.
- The summer application kills larval ticks that emerge in July and feed in August and September. Larval ticks turn into next year's dangerous nymphal ticks, so it is essential to apply Tick Control Tubes in July to nip the tick lifecycle in the bud .
- For best results, apply Tick Control Tubes each season to treat the season's new mice nests and kill any new deer ticks in your yard.
How Much to Apply

Yards with above average amounts of shrubs, tall grass or woods will need up to 20% more tubes.
*Just two applications are needed for the entire year.
How Long Does it Take to Work?
- Tick Control Tubes will start to decrease your tick population a few weeks after you apply them to your yard A mouse can pick up over 10 ticks a day or hundreds a season, so over time you will see a marked decrease of ticks in your yard.
- When you apply Tick Control Tubes in the spring, you are killing nymphal ticks that hatch in April and feed mainly from May - July. These ticks are the ones that most often spread Lyme diease to humans. Reapply tick tubes in July to kill baby larval ticks that hatch and feed in August and September. These larval ticks become next year's dangerous nymphal ticks.
- By killing both nymphal and larval ticks in year 1, you will see a marked decrease in your tick population the next summer. Keep applying tick tubes to your yard each season to treat new mouse nests and you will see improvement each year.

This is an interesting fact: Did you know that Santorini is essentially the remains of a big volcanic explosion which occurred over thousands of years ago? Well thanks to this fiery eruption, the picture postcard Greek island sees cruise ship loads of tourists lining the pretty cobbled streets, but don't let that put you off. Meanwhile, there are top-end luxury hotels that will break the bank but if you're prepared to stay away from the blue rooftops of Oia, then there are plenty of fantastic options including Hotel Zorzis Santorini.
This was our final holiday before Monkey entered the world, and we loved it here, exploring the different towns and catching the rays; eating great seafood, gelato, food, more food; and watching some amazing sunsets.
Hotel Zorzis Santorini
We were on a tight budget, and while the amazing luxury/boutique accommodation in Oia and Thira blew my mind (nestled into the cliff tops with spectacular views) – I wasn't going to let it blow the bank account.
We opted for the simple elegance of the Hotel Zorzis. Situated metres from the black sandy beaches of Perissa, owners Captain Spiros and his wife Hiroko welcomed us into their beautiful, clean, tastefully decorated hotel. We had Room 9, which had a lovely balcony overlooking the pool area and the mountains. The pool area was amazing, and all the bars and tavernas were within walking distance.
We hired a car and travelled around the rest of the island, but you can also take the bus which stops near the hotel. And, if you're lucky, Spiros will crack open some wine and tell you all about his times as a Captain of a cruise liner.
Top places we visited
Even though I was around five months pregnant, this didn't stop us from visiting Santo Wines. For a few Euros, you can sample some lovely wines, plus nibble on cheese and nuts. But the highlight here is the amazing view. If you go in the early evening, you get to watch the sunset.
Top tips
Get about in a hire car, drive around the island, follow signs and get lost, on purpose! You'll probably find the most amazing hidden gems. We did when we found this taverna which had the most delicious, fresh seafood right by the sea.
Another tip, if like us, you're not staying in Oia, but want to travel in to watch the sunset, then go in a little early, find yourself a nice cafe/bar/restaurant and hunker down. The crowds will find a nook and cranny in any possible viewing point, but amazingly no one will stand in your way.

Exploring Folly Ruins
Greetings my side!
Big up all the roadies! A few weekends ago, we headed out to Portland to shoot a scene for an upcoming #DownDiRoad special. In between locations we stopped at this place called Folly Ruins. Now every time I drive through Port Antonio, I have always passed the Folly cricket oval & heard that an old mansion was up there. The story behind the circumstances that lead to the mansion being dilapidated is very interesting to say the least.
Alfred Mitchell, a businessman from Salem, Connecticut, visited Port Antonio with his wife Annie Tiffany, heiress to the Tiffany fortune, in the early 1900's. Having fallen in love with the town, in 1905 they purchased land at Folly Point and constructed an elaborate home. The mansion was built as a replica of a Roman villa and boasted 60 rooms, marble floors, glass window and wooden doors. The Mitchell's lived in the home until 1911 when Alfred Mitchell died at the age of 80.
Local Flavour:
Local legend of the Folly Ruins likens the name of the property to a mistake by the owner, who in an attempt to impress his bride, mixed seawater with the concrete to quickly construct the mansion. Upon seeing the house, already in a state of deterioration due to the instability of the concrete, his bride exclaimed 'what a folly!'
Source: VisitJamaica
Currently, the ruins are still an attraction and artists have painted murals throughout the property. The mansion has an aura exudes from it and a sense or mystery which is very appealing. Locals hang out there & explorers pass through quite often. There is a beach close by that isn't that great for swimming, but pretty beautiful non the less. The beach is also overlooking the real "Monkey Island" which got it's name when Alfred's pet monkeys escaped the mansion and lived over there.
All in all, the mansion is dope & a very cool spot to hang out. We headed to our shoot after a while & stopped in Boston & Long Bay. It's not often we take St. Thomas route back home, but it's always such a welcome change. Our pit stop at the roadside waterfall in Roselle/White Horses, St. Thomas was the perfect ending to the day.
Check out the photo gallery below, and don't forget to subscribe to our YourTube channel!
Until the next one. Blessings!

text: An Australian company has created a robotic caddy that allows you to be free of carrying, pushing, or pulling your golf clubs around the golf course. For those golfers who still enjoy walking the course the Shadow Caddy may just be what they are looking for. The Shadow Caddy is a "hands free", three wheel electronic caddy that precisely follows you, and the clip on transmitter, around the golf course. The companies website indicates that it is currently only available in Australia and is for hire at a number of golf courses in that country. There is no mention of a purchase price and the "for hire" statement leads me to believe that it is purely a rental item at the moment. Check it out at www.shadowcaddy.com.au
