ELYRIA - As the economy slowly rebounds from the Great Recession, a college education has become more important than ever for anyone in the job market.
For some though, going back to school can be a daunting task. Where will they get the money? What if they weren't the best student in high school?
More and more, people are turning to community colleges to get their degrees. What exactly is it that draws people to the schools as opposed to more traditional four-year colleges?
"We're accessible. Students can apply for classes all the way up until school starts," said Krista O'Neill, coordinator of counseling and advising services at Lorain County Community College. "It's also close to home and not as threatening as starting off at a four-year college. We try to make things a little easier to get through."
At a traditional college or university, students have to take the ACT or SAT, receive their score and then apply to the school they want to attend. The process can take months, if not more than a year.
"A student at a community college can normally apply, get assessed, participate in our new student requirements and be registered in the same day," O'Neill said. "At a four-year school, you need to plan months ahead."
Another problem for many who are returning to school is they have family and other responsibilities that don't make attending a traditional school possible. Community colleges understand that, and make it possible to fit college around the rest of person's busy schedule, according to O'Neill.
"We have many students who come here that have just lost a long-time job and need training to brush up on new skills," she said. "We make it possible for people to fit school in with the rest of their life, and even bring that life here with them.
"We often have parents bring their kids along. We welcome those other parts of the family, whereas other schools try to keep a separation."
Community colleges have long been known to be the go-to place for nontraditional students, such as older students who have been in the workforce for a number of years. Over the past few years, though, LCCC has seen an increase in the number of traditional students as well.
A big reason for that is the University Partnership, according to O'Neill. LCCC has partnerships with a number of schools in the state, such as Cleveland State, Kent State, Bowling Green and Toledo.
The partnership allows students to take up to three years of classes at the Elyria campus for a four-year degree. Not only does it make attending school more convenient by not having to travel, but it also saves students a lot of money.
"We've become the first choice for many students in the county," O'Neill said. "Over the past 10 to 20 years, we've been able to draw some of the best and brightest of Lorain County."
Over the past few years, LCCC also has made a push to help students not only enroll in school, but also help them get their degrees.
The school now offers success coaches that help students figure out what to major in and chart a path to attaining their degree, rather than just take a number of random classes until they find something they like.
"Having that goal and that path to it are instrumental in helping students succeed," O'Neill said. "The thing about a community college is we're all about supporting students. That is what we do.
"I think at a community college, our purpose has always been access, but now it's changed to access and completion."

Dr. Sophie Jenkins
BVetMed PgC EAS MRCVS – Advanced Practitioner in Zoological Medicine
Sophie decided at the tender age of 4 to become an "animal doctor"; she just wanted to work with animals and nothing could stop her. At 5 years old she had a pair of gerbils, and by 7 her first dog. At 12 years old, she had read up for several months on various reptiles and decided on her first (of many) bearded dragon. In 2008, Sophie graduated from the Royal Veterinary College, and after a period of travel within Australia, including working in the wildlife hospital at Australia Zoo, she settled in her first job at a small animal practice in Newport, South Wales. Her gift to herself for graduating was her first panther chameleon named Neptune.
At just 4 weeks graduated, Sophie was undertaking internal tortoise surgery and successfully completed her first ovariectomy and bladder stone removal in a spur thigh tortoise. In 2010 Sophie completed a General Practitioners certificate in Exotic Animal Practice and so, in 2011, Sophie moved to her second practice in order to increase her exotic work load. In 2013, Sophie felt that her love for exotics was so strong that she joined forces with the dark side and became part of Origin Vets. Sophie hasn't looked back since, and in 2016 she completed her Post Graduate certificate in Exotic Animals achieving the status of Advanced Practitioner in Zoological Medicine. She joins only 25 others in the U.K with this veterinary status for exotic animals.
Sophie is particularly fond of rabbits, having five rescue lionheads herself. She also has a Lhasa Apso named Ozzie, and two ragdoll cats, Logan and Pheobe. What about the more exotic pets you say? Well after many successful years of breeding several species of chameleons, Sophie at the time of writing has just two panther chameleons, 1 pygmy chameleon, three bearded dragons and two rescue Horsfield tortoise. She also has two tropical fish tanks for relaxation time.
Even when she is not working with animals, Sophie loves to spend her time with them. She spends many weekends mountain walking with Ozzie and enjoying wildlife photography – she has even had several of her photos exhibited in two galleries in South Wales.

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to this Blog. I look forward to meeting with you here each day and listening to your ideas, opinions and suggestions. We, at the Information Technology Authority (ITA), consider you as our partners in building Oman's Digital Society and eGovernment.
Best Regards
Dr. Salim Al Ruzaiqi
Chief Executive Officer of ITA
With the growing number of social media users worldwide, Cyber blackmail issue began to spread globally targeting all society segments.
The Information Technology Authority (ITA) strives relentlessly to eliminate cyber blackmail incidents in the Sultanate, either through continuing awareness programs throughout the year or dealing with all blackmail complaints received by the Oman CERT.
Although the global cybersecurity index indicates that the Sultanate is the first among Arab countries in the field of cyber security and third globally, the number of blackmail cases are constantly increasing. The blackmail threat exceeded the normal actions to having an organized groups targeting different segments, and that's what drew the attention of the governments in many countries of the world including the Sultanate to coordinate and cooperate with other countries in the cybersecurity field to address these attacks.
More than 269 blackmail incidents were registered in the Oman CERT since 2011 and 161 of which are in 2016 only.
Usually, the blackmail process begins by establishing friendly relationships with the targeted person through chat applications, especially those that allow exchange of photos and videos, and then the blackmailer tempts the targeted person and records talks that are offensive to the victim. Then, the blackmailer uses this content as a threat by requesting a transfer of money or disclosure of confidential data or doing things in violation of public ethics.
The Omani law defines blackmail as threatening and compelling a person to do any act or wrong doing against his/her will, with some form of punishment if he/she does not fulfill the request. As for penalties, the cybercrime law identified in the eighteenth article a period not less than one month and not more than three years and a fine of not less than one thousand RO and not more than three thousand RO or one of these penalties. The penalty shall be temporary imprisonment for not less than three years nor more than ten years and a fine of not less than three thousand RO and not exceeding ten thousand RO if the threat to commit a crime or breach of the attribution of moral turpitude.
All social media users are advised to have clear information about the proper use of these channels and how to protect themselves from being trapped in blackmail dilemma. They are also advised not to share any information or data or personal photos in the cyberspace, and do not log on to chat and share personal data, where others can access those images or information and then use them negatively.
Week passwords (PIN Codes) are easy to be hacked, especially in the social networks, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat. Therefore, I advise everyone not to browse unreliable websites, where blackmailers track users and steal their personal data.
I also call on all those who being blackmailed first: don't hesitate to report to the Oman CERT at Information Technology Authority. Second, don't communicate with the blackmailer even when being exposed to extreme pressures and don't transfer any money or disclose bank card numbers. Third, avoid any clashes with the blackmailer and don't threaten him/her with the police but at the same time retain any email messages or any type of communication to be used as evidence at a later stage.
To report any blackmail cases or any other cyber security incidents, you can contact the Oman CERT through the hotline number: 24166828 during the office hours from 7:30 am to 14:30 or the email: email@example.com 24/7. Also you can report through the center website www.cert.gov.om.
Have you ever tried to search for any information, image or a video in Arabic language but all in vain? How did it feel? We always seek help from the internet whenever we inquest for information or knowledge and we are taken by surprise every time the results appear fruitless. As the Arabic eContent existing in the internet compared to the eContent of other languages is very low, we tend to refer to other languages to gain knowledge. According to the 2012 ITU report on measuring Information Society, the existing Arabic eContent doesn't exceed 3% from the overall eContent. Moreover, the total Arabic eContent in the Free Encyclopedia "Wikipedia" is about 0.82, that is less than 1%.
Arabic eContent refers to everything published in Arabic in the internet such as websites, webpages, personal blogs, pictures, videos, audio files or posts in social networks. Although the number of Arab users to the internet is increasing, the rise in Arabic eContent is relatively slow in a way that doesn't fulfill our craving for knowledge. Nowadays, each one of us uses smart phones, tablets and computers to surf the internet daily or to write a post or a tweet or to publish a picture on the social media networks, but is all what we publish or write has value? Can anyone refer to it or make use of it?
To narrow this digital gap and to contribute in providing valuable Arabic eContent, ITA exerted several efforts, among which, the establishment of Sas for Entrepreneurship and Sas for Virtual Reality. Sas for Entrepreneurship was founded to nurture Omani youth talents and skills in making videos, graphic designs and multimedia in Arabic as well as managing IT startups which all contribute in Arabic eContent development. Additionally, Sas.VR seeks to be a regional hub contributes in eContent production and development in multimedia and virtual reality fields with Omani creativity and innovations.
We are also proud to have worked collaboratively with his Majesty's advisor for economic planning affairs office to develop a website for the Sultan Qaboos Encyclopedia for Arab Names thus transforming its information from the library's shelves into the digital world. This encyclopedia, which will be launched soon, is an outcome of a thorough and rigorous research conducted by more than 150 researchers and scholars from different Arab countries in different scientific fields including linguistic, social, historical, political and literary analysis. The Sultan Qaboos Encyclopedia for Arab Names, which includes over 7 billion Arab names along with their meanings will surely add a valuable source of information.
Within the same context, and With the aim of enriching the Omani eContent and to enhance the local tourism, ITA adopted Wilayati Competition to encourage Omani youth to develop a website and/or a mobile app for each Wilayat in the Sultanate. This includes all information about the wilayat either geographical or historical along with available services and tourist attractions.
Furthermore, the open street map competition which was announced last month is one of the ITA's initiatives seeking to instill the digital voluntarism culture within Omani youth and to encourage them to share their knowledge and information related to a certain road or town using an open and free source licensed application. With the participation and cooperation of all, such information would be available to the public freely and openly and would develop the Omani eContent.
On top of that, a new Wikipedia Arabic eContent Development competition has been launched recently by the name of #Wiki_Oman targeting social media active users, bloggers, writers, and academics to contribute in writing rich articles to be added in the free encyclopedia and to help in making such articles available to the public. A single information or fact can lead and inspire others toward innovation and creativity.
Those mentioned efforts were only beginnings to contribute in the development and creation of meaningful eContent making it accessible to everyone searching for knowledge and information. Adding Omani/Arabic eContent is a form of voluntarism and a culture we aspire to spread in our community and with our cooperation, we can increase the Arabic/Omani eContent. Toward this aim, we encourage you to come up with individuals or collective ideas, initiatives to enhance the Arabic eContent to mark our positive imprint. All our communication channels either social media accounts, along with this blog, are open 24-7 welcoming all your suggestions, ideas and initiatives and we will spare no efforts in translating them to reality.
Considering the Omani citizen as our key driver towards social development, we at Information Technology Authority (ITA) greatly value his ideas, opinions and suggestions and that we take them seriously for our strategic plans.
In order to ensure a transparent communication with the public, we have established official social media accounts which mark great interaction from the public in a daily basis. Due to the abundance of enquiries, comments and suggestions we receive through those channels, and in order to introduce the Omani citizen to ITA's various role, initiatives, and projects in implementing eOman strategy and eGoverment, we decided to organize open discussion sessions virtually and physically with the public to discuss certain topics related to ICT field in Oman.
Such open discussion sessions are known by "Shurkum" inspired by "Alshura" principle where we invite all concerned and interested persons in ICT field as well as active social media users. All "Shurkum" discussion sessions are livestreamed in our official YouTube channel so that other viewers and attendees can interact and participate through the hash tag #Shurkum which was activated in the first session of Shurkum in all our official social media accounts.
The first discussion session of Shurkum series was launched in September 2015 which focused on discussing eTransformation plan which ITA started to implement in 2012 and highlighted its role in improving eServices in the Sultanate.
In this month, during our participation in Khareef Salalah 2015, one of the Shurkum discussion sessions was held and discussed ITA business plan for the following 5 years 2016-2020. A number of our social media followers, IT specialists and interested persons attended the session through which ITA management listened and received their opinions and suggestions to enhance 2016-2020 business plan giving space for more transparency and citizens participation. You can watch the full session through our YouTube channel on the following link:

I welcome all your feedback, comments or suggestions to improve Shurkum sessions or you may even suggest any topics to be discussed in our upcoming discussion sessions. You can write them here or through our social media channels and we will ensure addressing them as per your thoughts.
As the Sultanate celebrates the renaissance day, we extend our appreciate and gratitude to the leader behind Oman's great nation, His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said for that he has been the inspiring and visionary leader for all Omanis.
We, at the Information Technology Authority, are responsible to drive the wheel of the e.oman strategy and eGovernment in which we supervise the implementation of the national infrastructure projects and the ones related to nurturing the Information and Communication Technology, as well as the eTransformation plan of the government.
During the last 9 years, Oman eGovernment attained remarkable achievements at national and global levels. Oman was ranked as one of the leading countries in eGovernment in many occasions thanks to the enhanced national IT infrastructure and eServices projects and initiatives. By the adoption and implementation of eTransformation plan in 2012, ITA effectively managed to streamline government entities processes and procedures enabling them to deliver high quality eServices through the consultancy and support it provided.
In the past few months we have celebrated the first anniversary of Sas Center for Virtual Reality and the 2nd anniversary of Sas Programme for Entrepreneurship with great achievements being accomplished. The Sas Center for Virtual Reality was launched in April 2014 and the Sas Programme for Entrepreneurship was launched in March 2013. During the past two years, the Sas Programme for Entrepreneurship has incubated 19 companies and due to incubating these SMEs, 65 job opportunities have been provided for Omanis. The total revenue of these companies in the first year is 250,000 OMR and in the second year 524,000 OMR. Whereas Sas Center for Virtual Reality have trained 320 Omanis in the past year and out of these, 26 Omanis have established their own companies after the training. We believe that both centers immensely contribute to the strong foundation of Oman's promising IT industry and that SMEs in ICT have finally got their proper set up.
ITA is, then, takes a great deal in contributing to the blessed journey of the Omani renaissance. Thus, this day is a shout out to all Omanis to work hard and take Oman to the next level.
Established in 2006 by a Royal Decree, 31st May 2015 marks the 9th anniversary of the Information Technology Authority (ITA). We are proud of the achievements during these past 9 years, and are looking forward to a prosperous future for e.oman.
With the collaborative efforts of the Omani Youth in the Information Technology field as well as other fields, the ITA has adopted and launched a number of projects and initiatives towards achieving the e.oman strategy since its inception.
During the last 9 years, Oman eGovernment attained remarkable achievements at national and global levels. With all our employees exertions and the cooperation with government entities, Oman was ranked as one of the leading countries in eGovernment in many occasions thanks to the enhanced national IT infrastructure and eServices. By the adoption and implementation of eTransformation plan in 2012, ITA effectively managed to streamline government entities processes and procedures enabling them to deliver high quality eServices through the consultancy services and support it provided.
We can proudly declare that Oman now has a highly sophisticated effective e-payment gateway supporting e-commerce development and government payment services. We are also greatly thankful to the national IT training and awareness programs and initiatives which succeeded in making desirable impact on the society across the Sultanate by increasing the level of ICT awareness and capacity building.
Everyone at the Information Technology Authority is proud of the achievements made over these past 9 years, achievements that could not have been made without the collaboration and efforts of the government and private sector institutions, as well as the ongoing enthusiasm and support from the citizens of Oman for the projects and initiatives of the ITA. We will continue to build the capacity and capabilities of the ICT sector, and with continued collaboration we hope to support the development march of Oman in all fields under the wise leadership of HM Sultan Qaboos bin Said.

Len Blavatnik made billions as a Kremlin insider. Now he's writing huge checks to the university.

This article has been updated.
By now, most Americans are aware of the deep and disturbing connections between Russia's oligarchs and the country's president, Vladimir Putin, thanks to an onslaught of news coverage and a growing list of sanctions aimed at them and their business empires.
Yet a surprising number of respected American institutions don't seem to get it, including two that I am connected with: the Hudson Institute and Harvard.
On Tuesday, the founder, director and sole funder of the Hudson Institute's Kleptocracy Initiative, Charles Davidson, announced that he was leaving his position at the head of the initiative because Hudson had accepted a $50,000 donation for a table at its annual gala from Leonard Blavatnik, a Soviet-born dual British-American citizen who made his money in the rough and tumble of Russia's commodities privatizations during the 1990s and now owns, among other properties, Warner Music Group.
"Russian kleptocracy has entered the donor pool of Hudson Institute," he told The New York Post. "Blavatnik is precisely what the Kleptocracy Initiative is fighting against — the influence of Putin's oligarchs on America's political system and society — and the importation of corrupt Russian business practices and values."
Sources at the Hudson Institute said that Kleptocracy Initiative would continue, but did not comment on the Blavatnik gift. (Disclosure: I am a visiting fellow at Hudson, but it is an honorary position, and I have neither received money from the institute nor performed work for it.)
Mr. Blavatnik's glory at Hudson largely lasted just one night. But he did succeed in attaching his name to Harvard for generations to come. On Nov. 8, Harvard Medical School announced that the Blavatnik Family Foundation had pledged $200 million to the institution, creating the Blavatnik Institute and Blavatnik Harvard Life Lab. This follows on a $50 million gift by the foundation to the university in 2013.
(Asked for comment, a Harvard spokeswoman said in a statement: "Harvard Medical School is deeply grateful for the generous and transformational commitment from the Blavatnik Family Foundation that will support discovery at HMS propelling the school's mission to transform human health." She also referred me to someone who handles media relations for the foundation.)
As a Harvard alumna, I find this appalling. Mr. Blavatnik — who, with a net worth of over $20 billion, is the richest man in Britain and the 29th-richest in America — cut his teeth in the brutal aluminum wars in 1990s Russia alongside Oleg Deripaska and Roman Abramovich, who has estimated that every three days someone in the business was murdered. Together, they acquired an empire of recently privatized metals and energy companies, often for outrageously low prices.
Those deals, and others, involved a series of transactions with individuals with checkered pasts, deep Kremlin ties and a reputation for corruption. Though Mr. Blavatnik is not under American sanctions himself, many of his associates are, including Mr. Deripaska. The aluminum giant Rusal, where he is a major shareholder, is facing direct sanctions due to go into effect soon; Rosneft, an energy company owned by the Russian government where he also made millions, expects the ax to fall shortly.
One of Mr. Blavatnik's early investments, United Trading Company, which he owned with Viktor Vekselberg, another oligarch also under American sanctions, brought him censure from the Russian government.
In 2004 the pair had to give up ownership of United Trading after the Russian government charged it with anti-competitive actions; they sold their shares to three other Kremlin-linked investors, Dmitri Pyatkin, Aleksandr Fraiman and Igor Annensky.
In 1996, Mr. Blavatnik and Mr. Vekselberg helped found SUAL, a large aluminum producer; through it, they own over a quarter of Rusal. The other big shareholder in Rusal is Mr. Deripaska's En+ Group, which controls 48 percent.
Mr. Blavatnik's biggest deal involved selling his stake in the Russian oil company TNK-BP to Rosneft in March 2013; he and his partners, including Mr. Vekselberg, together made $27.7 billion. The deal was arranged at the top levels of the Russian government; since 2004, Rosneft has been run by a close ally of Mr. Putin, Igor Sechin, a former deputy prime minister.
To be clear, Mr. Blavatnik is not accused of any crimes, in the United States or in Russia. But he is undoubtedly a Kremlin insider, someone who has made an enormous fortune trading on his political connections to a deeply corrupt circle of oligarchs and a criminal Russian state.
Mr. Blavatnik is entitled to spend his money how he pleases. But institutions like the Hudson Institute and Harvard, which at least in principle stand for the ethical pursuit of knowledge, sully themselves by accepting it.
Accepting gifts — especially naming gifts — from people with dubious sources of funds or close ties to despotic regimes encourages the view that dirty money can be cleansed by charity. What lessons does that teach Harvard students? And what message does it send to citizens of countries troubled by kleptocracy and corruption?
One of the gates to Harvard Yard has a celebrated inscription: "Enter to grow in wisdom. Depart to serve better thy country and thy kind."
I still remember that. I wonder if Harvard does.

Bookkeeping & Accounting Services For Business Owners in Oregon, City
Working with a professional Oregon City bookkeeping and accounting service is one of the smartest moves you can make as a new business owner. It's surprising how many new companies overlook the importance of properly managing finances from day one. They also aren't always aware of the full breadth of services that an accounting firm can offer. Accountants can do a lot more than help you with your tax returns, though that is one of their many services. Here are some others.
Managing Accounts Payable And Receivable.
As a new business owner, you may have built a beneficial relationship with a supplier who will allow you to purchase goods on credit. Upon doing so you create something referred to as "accounts payable". On the other hand, depending on the nature of your business, it is possible you have sold goods to another company on credit. Those are referred to as "accounts receivable".
Properly managing these accounts is extremely important for a business of any size. These accounts represent liabilities or assets for your business. An accounting firm can help you fully understand the nature of these accounts as well as help you properly manage them.
Bank Reconciliations.
Easily one of the most confusing tasks that accountants are trained to handle. Many small business owners have no idea what a bank reconciliation is or whether they need one. In reality, every business needs one completed according to regular intervals. Otherwise, their company could find itself dealing with unexpected financial losses.
Professional Tax Specialists
One of the top priorities of business owners is paying fewer taxes and we know it. We can achieve this through in-depth tax planning. Whether you are sole-proprietor or a corporation, we will accommodate your business needs. We will work alongside your business all year round to tailor fit tax-saving plans that best fits your situation. Our expert advice on accounting will give you peace of mind as you sit back with the full knowledge that your tax return preparations are in good hands.
We will exhaust all opportunities for you to save on taxes and as well as minimizing any tax liabilities to maximize any future opportunities while still maintaining full compliance with IRS statutes.
Other Services.
Accounts and reconciliations certainly aren't all that accountants/bookkeepers are trained to help with. A few other areas of expertise include:
– Quickbooks training and support.
– Staff training.
– Properly recording and managing financial statements.
These are all areas of high importance for any business; whether new or old. It's a good idea to discuss these areas with a professional accountant if you haven't done so already.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

The Yash Raj Films' trailer opens with a reminder after "cool chor" (Hrithik in Dhoom 2) and a "smart chor" (Aamir Khan in Dhoom 3), it's time we embraced the "real bank chor".
The film's trailer introduces the "real bank chor": Champak Chandrakant Chiplunkar, a simple Marathi manoos played by Riteish Deshmukh who picks the worst day possible to rob a bank. To make matters worse, he recruits two "idiots". They also have to contend with a crazy bunch of hostages inside the bank which includes a high-strung housewife, a hyper chef, a possibly undercover cop… and Baba Sehgal.

The robber-cop act of Riteish and Vivek is hilarious but it's Baba Sehgal's cameo that takes away the cake.

Barely five weeks after the renewal of direct face-to-face peace talks between Israelis and Palestinians, the process came to an untimely – albeit foreseeable – halt. The stumbling block? The end of the temporary 10-month freeze on building in Israel's West Bank settlements, instituted by prime minister Netanyahu in November 2009. As 26 September, the pre-determined date, approached, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas began to demand that the moratorium on construction should be renewed, not only in West Bank settlements, but also in East Jerusalem.
Netanyahu's coalition government is dependent on the continued support of members of political parties more right-wing in their views than his own Likud – in particular, Yisrael Beiteinu. Even so, most Likud ministers supported the resumption of West Bank building when the freeze ended, and many from other parties were adamantly opposed to any renewal of the moratorium. Despite this, Netanyahu managed to get majority support in his Cabinet to offer the Palestinians a new temporary building freeze of 60 days, in return for the PA formally recognising Israel as a Jewish state. This offer was immediately rejected by Abbas.
When Abbas returned to the Arab League, asking them to back him in offering Israel his ultimatum – stop all building in the West Bank and East Jerusalem or we will pull out of the peace process – the League hesitated. The prospect of a sovereign Palestine, clearly within grasp, was too valuable to cast away heedlessly. They procrastinated. Give the United States – under whose auspices the peace process had been renewed – a month to come up with a compromise proposal, they said. We will reconvene in November to see if a deal can be agreed that will allow the talks to continue.
Since then, the Palestinians themselves have indicated that there need be no fixed deadline to a possible offer from the US. And in the interim Netanyahu has been in the States, engaging in intensive diplomatic negotiations. Last week he reported to his Cabinet that the US has put forward a proposal for a 90-day settlement freeze in exchange for support and military aid.
"This proposal was raised during my talks with US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton," he said. "It is still not final; it is still being formulated by the Israeli and American teams. If and when it is complete, I will bring it to the appropriate Government forum, which in this case is the Cabinet. In any case, I insist that any proposal meet the State of Israel's security needs, both in the immediate term and vis-à-vis the threats that we will face in the coming decade."
Netanyahu's ministerial majority may hinge on the votes of the two Shas members in the security cabinet, and they have said they will oppose him if the US does not explicitly confirm in writing that building throughout Jerusalem will be permitted during the freeze. Accordingly, Netanyahu has delayed a security cabinet vote on the freeze pending US delivery of written assurances of the understandings agreed upon between him and US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
US State Department spokesman Mark Toner said on 18 November: "we are working intensely with both parties." When asked whether, in its conversations with the Palestinians, the US discussed the possibility that the new freeze might exclude east Jerusalem, Toner responded rather obliquely: "We are trying to create the conditions to get them back into direct negotiations."
But building in east Jerusalem does indeed seem likely to prove a major difficulty, for today, 21 November, President Abbas said that the Palestinian Authority will not return to peace talks with Israel unless there is a freeze on settlement building that includes east Jerusalem. Speaking to reporters after meeting Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in Cairo he said: "If there is no complete halt to settlements in all of the Palestinian territories including Jerusalem, we will not accept". Abbas added that neither the Palestinians nor Israel had as yet received an official US request to return to the talks.
The word is that the US is in the process of offering an incentive-filled package to Israel in return for a 90-day building freeze in the West Bank settlements. The package is rumoured to include the US using its veto power in the UN against any unilateral declaration of a Palestinian state, and eventually to providing Israel with 20 additional F-35 Joint Strike fighter jets worth some $3 billion. (Incidentally, some US politicians are reported to be indicating that Washington is now backtracking, and wants some sort of payment for the coveted fighter aircraft.)
It is not, perhaps, surprising, that President Abbas was quoted by the London-based Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper today as saying that there should be no linkage between freezing settlement construction and supplying Israel with weapons. Nevertheless and notwithstanding, in the middle of last week there was a convincing report that Palestinian sources had indicated that they, too, were expecting a package of incentives from the US in return for resuming peace talks with Israel.
As each party takes a turn at stirring the pot, which is bubbling ominously and looks increasingly likely to boil over, prospects for a return to the face-to-face peace talks are starting to fade. (One idea mooted a few weeks ago is that if a resumption of direct talks eventually proves impossible, the Arab League might propose a return to the "proximity" talks that started the current initiative back in the spring.)
The fact is that the two principal parties are each, in their own way, hamstrung by political imperatives. As the distinguished Middle East commentator, David Horowitz – also, incidentally, editor of the Jerusalem Post – astutely pointed out last week, the Palestinian leadership has, over the years, negotiated with Israel even as building not just in east Jerusalem but across the West Bank continued. By doing so, he wrote, "they were essentially accepting that construction would quietly go on at a relatively low level until an accord was reached – that no Israeli government was going to initiate a bitter confrontation with the potentially affected settlers before the painful deal was done, and that the eventual signature of such an accord would resolve the final status and disposition of the disputed territory."
What Horowitz asserts, with some reason, is that President Obama and his administration, by repeatedly urging Israel to halt all building over the pre-1967 lines, including in east Jerusalem, has shattered that pragmatic framework.
Ramat Shlomo, the Jerusalem neighbourhood where new building plans caused a Netanyahu-Obama fracas earlier this year, had quietly become home to thousands upon thousands of Israeli Jews. But neither Ramat Shlomo, nor the neighbourhoods of Pisgat Ze'ev and Har Homa, the focus of this week's row, are areas that Mahmoud Abbas can seriously believe would come under the sovereignty of a future Palestine. Washington has in effect, Horowitz asserts, cut the ground for compromise from under Mahmoud Abbas's feet.
The bitter irony, he writes, is that while the administration evidently continues to believe that pressuring Israel over this issue will help mollify the Palestinians and thus bring them back to the peace table, Abbas himself is telling anybody who will listen precisely the opposite. As Washington Institute analyst David Makovsky noted this week, Abbas "felt trapped by Obama's call for a complete settlement freeze in the spring of 2009." It meant that he couldn't now come back to the peace table without it.
And that is precisely the spot on which the Palestinians now stand – demanding what Netanyahu certainly cannot politically deliver: a complete building freeze in all West Bank settlements and in east Jerusalem. A maze indeed. Is there a way out?

The Ministry of Interior and National Security in the Gaza Strip has recently taken a number of exceptional measures, which included imposing restrictions on travelling via Beit Hanoun (Erez) crossing and banning fishermen from sailing and fishing in the Gaza Sea. Those measures came in the context of ongoing investigations into the assassination crime of Hamas leader and former prisoner, Mazen Faqha, on Friday, 24 March 2017.
On Sunday, 26 March 2017, the Ministry of Interior issued a decision to close Beit Hanoun crossing and Gaza Sea until a further notice. On Monday, 27 March 2017, the Ministry decided to re-open partially the crossing, but set criteria before those allowed traveling via Beit Hanoun crossing. Therefore, the Ministry announced that only families of prisoners, patients and women of all ages are allowed to travel from the Gaza Strip while men between 15 and 45 are not allowed. Moreover, the restrictions on fishing are so far imposed as the Gaza Sea is still closed to Gaza fishermen.
It is worth mentioning that the above-mentioned measures came in light of the ongoing Israeli restrictions, which deprive Palestinians in the Gaza Strip of their right to freedom of movement. These restrictions have violated a wide range of human rights, including the right to health as life of many patients has been put in danger or their health conditions have deteriorated due to delays in treatment. Moreover, these measures have disastrous effects on the right to work, right to education and right to family reunification etc.
Human Right Organizations pointed out that the number of patients, who obtained permits from the Israeli authorities but were prevented from traveling through Beit Hanoun (Erez) crossing due to the exceptional closure by the Ministry of Interior, reached 71 on the first day of closure, 3 patients on the second day of closure and 3 patients on the third day. On Wednesday, 29 March 2017, 4 patients were prevented from travelling; two of whom were supposed to be transferred by ambulances although they had a security ban from Israel.
The Palestinian NGO's Network (PNGO) and Human Rights Organizations believe that the assassination crime of Faqha is a serious incident and express their grave concern over the continued restrictions imposed on freedom of movement via Beit Hanoun crossing (Erez) and on Gaza Sea. Both stress that the imposed restrictions violate a wide range of fundamental rights protected by the Palestinian laws, particularly the Palestinian Basic Law. These restrictions also violate many human rights as the right to health care; which, within the principle of complementarity, affects the right to life, right to work, right to freedom of movement and etc.
PNGO and human rights organizations call for ending these restrictive measures, which violate human rights, and allowing the freedom of movement for Palestinians and foreigners working in the Gaza Strip in addition to allowing fishermen to resume fishing. Both demand that the security measures should be consistent with the human rights standards and provisions of law. The signatories understand the delicate situation, which followed the assassination crime, and stress that the security motives should not be at the expense of human rights.

Sumo Logic, the leading cloud-native, machine data analytics platform that delivers continuous intelligence, today released its 'State of Modern Applications in the Cloud' report providing exclusive data-driven insights, best practices and emerging trends by analyzing technology adoption within the application stack. Based on active and anonymized data from more than 1,500 customers using Sumo Logic's machine data analytics platform, this next wave of data builds upon last year's 'State of Modern Applications in AWS' report, delivering rich and unprecedented analysis of mission-critical modern applications and infrastructures on cloud platforms like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform. The report is released in conjunction with Sumo Logic's inaugural Illuminate user conference, taking place in Burlingame, Calif., and will be discussed during Sumo Logic CEO Ramin Sayar's keynote on Sept. 13, which will also be accessible via live webcast.
"Today's enterprises are striving to deliver high-performance, highly scalable and always-on digital services. These services are built on 'modern architectures' -- an application stack with new tiers, technologies and microservices -- typically running on cloud platforms like AWS, Azure and Google Cloud Platform," said Kalyan Ramanathan, vice president of product marketing for Sumo Logic. "Sumo Logic has exclusive access to the rich customer data and insights that showcase the nuts and bolts of how forward-thinking digital businesses are architecting and running their modern applications on the leading cloud service providers."
The characteristics of modern applications in the cloud are changing, requiring software and IT architects to shift priorities. Businesses of all sizes are transforming at an unprecedented pace in order to compete in the digital era, but are bogged down by legacy technologies and inefficient siloed processes and tools that are ill-equipped to handle today's volume of data. Today's modern enterprise must harness this data and churn it into continuous intelligence in order to make critical business decisions. The second 'State of Modern Applications in the Cloud' report continues to reflect the emerging trends and year-over-year shifts in how businesses are approaching their digital strategy, and the ways in which they build their modern applications across each tier of the application architecture.
Key findings of the report include:
Linux OS is a legitimate option across all cloud platforms.
Containers and functions growth is unprecedented.
Legacy vendors are struggling to find relevance in the modern app world.
Organizations are uncovering a cloud security paradox.
"For digital organizations running in the cloud like Greenhouse, it is crucial to have a 360 degree view of their application architecture to have insight on everything from how apps and infrastructure are running, to the security of the system as a whole," says Dave Anderson, director of security & IT at Greenhouse. "Sumo Logic's 'Modern Applications in the Cloud' report provides contextual data-driven insights for cloud application architecture and technology, making it relevant to anyone already building applications in the cloud or considering their cloud migration strategy."
Sumo Logic, a recognized expert in building and operating massive multi-tenant, highly distributed cloud systems, is the industry's first machine data analytics platform to natively ingest, index and analyze structured and unstructured data together in real-time. As one of the most powerful cloud services in the world, every day on average the Sumo Logic platform analyzes more than 100 petabytes of data, executes over 30 million searches and queries more than 400 trillion records, delivering tens of millions of insights to customers who rely on continuous intelligence across the entire application lifecycle to more effectively build, run and secure their modern applications.
'State of Modern Applications in the Cloud' Report MethodologyThe report is based on data gathered and analyzed from applications and infrastructure managed by more than 1,500 Sumo Logic customers on cloud platforms like AWS, Azure and Google Cloud Platform. All customer-specific data is anonymized. Adoption data is based on evidence of organizations setting up and collecting log, metric and event data from a specific application component or infrastructure stack typically for the purpose of monitoring, troubleshooting and securing the modern application utilizing these components.

- There are many railroad workers in the state
- The state has many railroad crossings
- The large number of crossings produces many opportunities for train-vehicle and train-pedestrian injuries
Trains are obviously massive objects, and often travel at very high speeds. Many accidents will cause the death of someone, and even nonfatal accidents can produce massive, life-altering injuries. The railroads themselves have by far the most control over matters affecting safety. If you or someone you love has been injured or even killed as the result of a railroad accident, contact our seasoned Houston railroad accident attorneys.
Types of Railroad Accidents
The railroad business is varied and complicated enough that a very large number of different types of accidents can occur:
- On-the-job injuries to railroad workers, ranging from the ordinary slip-and-fall injury to being crushed by a train or heavy equipment
- Train collisions, injuring passengers, train workers, and possibly third parties near the scene
- Train derailments, which may injure the same people as a collision (toxic spills may also result, endangering any number of people who live in the area of the spill)
- Train-vehicle collisions, typically at a crossing, which may injure train workers, passengers, vehicle occupants and third parties near the scene
- Train-pedestrian collisions, which are almost always deadly to the pedestrian but not people on the train (unless the train driver takes drastic action to stop the train, causing a derailment)
Railroad Work Injuries and FELA
For railroad workers injured on the job, the Federal Employers Liability Act (FELA) provides the rules for recovery from the railroad. FELA is different from both ordinary negligence claims and workers' compensation. The "burden of proof" that FELA imposes on an injured railroad worker is not as high as in an ordinary negligence case. And unlike workers compensation laws, FELA does require some showing that the railroad was at fault. In most FELA cases, the injured worker establishes the railroad violated a safety standard and the violation contributed to the worker's injury.
FELA also has unique rules for notice and the way that injured worker claims proceed.
Having a Houston railroad accident lawyer with real experience specific to FELA claims is the injured worker's best protection against doing something that will allow the railroad to escape liability.
A successful FELA claim allows the injured worker to recover past damages, as well as future damages, for lost wages, medical treatment and any pain and suffering.
Other Injuries
Railroad injuries not governed by FELA are mostly subject to the ordinary rules of negligence. Since railroads are heavily regulated, with many safety mandates imposed by the government. As with FELA claims, an experienced Houston railroad injury lawyer can often establish that the railroad was negligent by showing that it violated a safety regulation.
That showing can be technical and certainly calls for an in-depth understanding of the safety regulations, including the letter of the law and what the law intended to accomplish.
Help When You Need It
Making sure that those who cause railroad-related injuries compensate the victims is a complex and technical job best left to professionals who have experience in that task.

Motherhood is…Really Hard.
It isn't always pretty. It isn't always smiles and love and cute. This isn't the highlight reel. This is real life.
The hardest part is raising them to be good humans. And lately my boys have been acting like little assholes. Tonight both of them were sent to bed early without baths or stories or good night cuddles & songs. Brushed teeth and put themselves to bed. Joshua screamed at me when I told him something he didn't want to hear. Grady bluntly, in a solid yet quiet voice, said "I hate you." And even though I'm not sure he knows what it means to hate he used it in the right context and it still hurt my heart.
I pour myself into my kids everyday. And I'm not really sure how to teach them gratitude. How to teach them appreciation and mercy. I guess I will just keep asking God to help me lead by example.
I get worn down on days it seems that all I do and all I give isn't good enough for my boys. I can only brush off so many hurtful tones and disrespect. And I get so tired of time-outs and isolation and early bedtimes.
Some days motherhood is just really hard.

28 Achad Ha'am
Sun-Thur 12-23; Fri events only; Sat 1 hour after Shabbat-last customer
There is a restaurant in France, known for bravely having one item on it's menu. This special meat eater's haven takes no reservations and has food lovers waiting outside for up to forty minutes for a table. The famed steak, salad and fries complete with secret sauce is served at the world famous and iconic L'Entrecote Paris. 2000 miles away from this steak phenomenon, the owners of L'Alhambra , wanted to bring the model of L'Entrocte Paris to Tel Aviv, offering similar style of cuisine with an Israeli edge. With expectations set extremely high, this was not a challenge for the feint of heart. Owner Amir Shechman and Chef Ziv Reuben worked endlessly to pay tribute to the original L'Entrecote and to exceed the originals' caliber. This endeavour took years of development to create. The simple act of making a sauce as good as the original took two weeks of research in Paris.
The L'Alhambra team began this journey by choosing a well deserving location for their honorable restaurant. To maintain the integrity of the original L'Entrecote the owners strategically placed the restaurant in a location with high historical significance to Tel Avivians, The Palatin Hotel. Built in 1926, the building was one of the most modern and beautiful buildings in Tel Aviv. Famed German architect, Alexander Baerwald, built the Palatin using a blend of modern architecture, European design and Oriental influences.Today the owners of L'Entrecote have honored this historic site by preserving the integrity of the building while creating a dining establishment that celebrates the best of dining. Their dedication to the same level of quality that the building was founded upon, is illustrated in the refinement of the food, the sophisticated service, and the smart interior design. From the moment you walk through the door of L'Entrecote, it is clear to see that you are in for a special experience.
From the stylish, yet minimilist decor, to the polished look of the tables presented with sleek silverware, and the dedication to precise, home-made food using the finest ingredients Yaron's bold statement, "Our focus is the customer, and we want every visit here to be as memorable as the last," is palpable.
Everyone around us savors their luscious meals, the smiles and sighs of contentment are contagious.
The feast begins on a bright note with homemade bread and a selection of house made dips, olive and tomato, each exploding with flavor, full of spice while maintaining the best elements that tomatoes and olives have to offer. The the dips were merely something to whet the appetite and prepare oneself for what is to come.
The world famous Heston Blumenthal states that food should not be overpowering yet it should create a "party in your mouth," when I tried the duck liver pate with pineapple chutney, it did just that. Delicate, creamy and exquisite, the chutney perfectly complimented the subtle taste of the pate. The main course was to be the house dish and what the restaurant was primarily built on, as inspired by its European counterpart. The steak graciously arrived at the the table cooked at a perfect medium rare, with beautiful yet understated garnish, secret sauce served on the side in a gravy boat, and crisp fries to round out the meal. A divine smell was wafting through the air-the taste could not be any more perfect. The secret sauce that was so meticulously created by chef Ziv certainly lived up to expectations and enhanced the flavour of a prime cut of Argentinean meat. The meal certainly spoke for itself, the environment enhanced the experience.
L'Entrectoe successfully converges the marriage of new and old. Mr. Shechman has done an exquisite job of preserving what is tried and tested while adding fresh, unique elements, making the experience there both nostalgic and relevant. From the moment you set eyes of the majestic building to the moment you encounter the chic interior, you are reminded of the significance past and present of Tel Aviv. With all the right elements, mouthwatering food and attentive service, L'Entrecote has proven Kosher cuisine can replicate with its food, looks and style qualities that the finest non kosher restaurants in the world. L'Entrecote has made a a grand entrance in Tel Aviv's dining scene!

Senators Seek Federal Probe of EpiPen Maker For False Claims
Mylan, the embattled manufacturer of the lifesaving EpiPen, and CEO Heather Bresch, already under investigation for unscrupulous price hikes and shady business practices, could also find themselves facing a federal False Claims Act lawsuit before long. Three members of the Senate Judiciary Committee sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch Wednesday asking the Justice Department to investigate whether Mylan illegally wrongfully classified the EpiPen under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program, which would allow it to repay a lower percentage of its sales to states in the form of rebates. Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-IA, and Sens. Richard Blumenthal, D-CT, and Amy Klobuchar, ... Read More

Bayer's Ray Kerins Wins PRWeek's 2017 Outstanding In-House Professional
WHIPPANY, N.J., March 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — Bayer's Raymond F. Kerins, Jr., has won PRWeek's 2017 «Outstanding In-House Professional Award,» the communications industry's highest honor for personal achievement.
Kerins, who has served as senior vice president and head of communications, government relations and policy for Bayer in the United States since 2013, was honored by PRWeek for his influence, effectiveness and impact.

Under his leadership, both groups have grown in size and community outreach activities.
In addition, PRWeek cited Kerins' leadership by appearing on CNBC in opposition to the so-called anti-LGBT law in North Carolina, which would have sanctioned discrimination against LGBT people and prohibited transgender people from using bathrooms of their choice. Kerins stood out on the issue by advocating for dialogue, equality and tolerance. For several years, Kerins has served on the CDC corporate roundtable on global health threats, which brings together the public health organization with the private sector to build programs that make the world healthy and safe. Thanks to Kerins' longstanding relationship with the CDC, Bayer led corporate efforts against the Zika virus.
«Ray is an excellent leader who has demonstrated a strategic and innovative approach to comms,» according to one PRWeek judge.
PRWeek, which hosted the annual awards dinner last week in New York City, honors and celebrates the best of the corporate, agency, nonprofit and education teams and the work that they do. The outstanding in-house professional award honors the personal achievement within the client side of the PR industry, which is covered by this year's awards, along with any additional career achievements to date.
«I am grateful to receive this award on behalf of the outstanding Bayer team in the United States. Nobody ever accomplished anything in this world alone,» Kerins said. «PRWeek is the gold standard of the industry, and to be recognized by your peers in this extraordinary industry is truly special and humbling. I thank PRWeek for this honor.»
A graduate of Iona College, where he earned bachelor's and master's degrees, Kerins has long been recognized for outstanding work during his communications career. Just last fall, he was named to PRWeek's Health Influencer 50 List. Kerins lives in Katonah, N.Y., with his wife and three children.

Our hair changes throughout our entire lives. As we age, our hair will eventually begin to turn gray, and the texture will become thicker, dry and even wiry. Many people also complain about the color of gray they have--it can look dull and lackluster. If you love your gray hair but want to enhance it, instead of dyeing it to the color you had when you were in your 20s, add a different gray color. Boxed gray dyes will add shine, depth and highlights. These highlights will give your gray a multidimensional color and look. And the best part ... no unsightly roots.
Wear old clothes and a pair of gloves to protect your skin and hands from stains.
Purchase a hair peroxide at a beauty supply store in a 20 percent solution. Do not go any higher than 20 percent, and never use household peroxide, which can cause damage.
Let the peroxide set into your hair for 10 minutes, and then rinse it out. Once the peroxide has been rinsed, you can dye your hair. Because of the texture of gray hair, peroxide pretreatment is essential to soften your hair and ensure that the new color sticks to the hair, states WomensHealthcareTopics.com.
Mix the gray dye with the hair color developer in the application bottle. Shake the bottle to mix the hair dye.
Apply the hair color to all of your hair, starting at the roots. Once the hair has been saturated by the dye, massage the color into the hair.
Leave the color in your hair for the time specified in the directions.
Rinse the color out of your hair using warm water and without shampoo. Once the water runs clear, add the color conditioner. Leave the color conditioner in your hair for 3 minutes, and then wash it out.

The answer is easy: guilt and embarrassment.
Think about it. When you are asked for referrals, what's the first thing that comes into your mind?
You think,
"Oh, no. What if I recommend my friend and this salesperson is rude, offensive, pushy, dishonest or a jerk? Will I lose my friend's respect? Rather than run the risk, I'll just pretend that I don't know anyone I can refer."
We don't want to feel guilty or embarrassed. That's why we pretend we are hermits, orphaned, or extreme introverts.
The solution?
When you ask for referrals, make your prospect or customer feel comfortable by:
