Locally, troopers are trying to be more visible and aggressively enforce traffic laws.
Fewer people have died on Stark County roads this year while traffic deaths have increased across the state and nation.
Officials say normal fluctuation, lower gas prices and recent years of record low state deaths may have influenced the changing statistics.
"But the cause and effect for the crashes generally remain the same," said Lt. Leo Shirkey of the Canton post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
People drive at unsafe speeds, lose control and don't yield to other vehicles. Locally, he said, troopers are trying to be more visible and aggressively enforce traffic laws. They continue to announce that seat belt use and sober driving save lives.
"Looking at the numbers, we believe that message is getting out there," Shirkey said.
Thirteen people have died in Stark County, compared to 26 people at this time last year, according to the Highway Patrol. Statewide, 672 people have died — with 52 yet to be confirmed traffic-related deaths. Last year at this time, that number was 577.
Safety messages and the number of fatal crashes are flashing on signs across the state.
The Ohio Department of Transportation and state Highway Patrol began broadcasting messages on boards and overhead signs during the July 4 weekend. A more than 18 percent rise in traffic deaths in the previous six months prompted the move.
The month of May was the worst for fatalities in a decade, with double the number of fatal crashes involving no seat belts and triple the number involving alcohol, according to the state Highway Patrol.
Patrol spokesman Sgt. Vincent Shirey said it's too soon to tell if a slight decline in the percentage increase is related to the signs, three of which surround Canton on Interstate 77 and U.S. Route 62.
"I think anything that we can do to get the message out and educate drivers is part of the challenge of getting folks to buckle up and not drive distracted and designate their sober driver," he said.
One possible reason traffic deaths in Ohio are surpassing past years' numbers — they were the safest on record. The lowest number of fatalities was 990 in 2013, Shirey said. With just over 1,000 deaths last year, it was the second safest on record since the patrol began recording deaths in 1936.
"When you come off of two of the safest years that we've ever had, it's going to lend the numbers possibly going up just a bit, but our goal is to always get those numbers decreasing," he said.
The number of traffic deaths across the nation in the first six months of 2015 rose by 14 percent from last year, according to the National Safety Council.
The council, in a recent news release, said the 18,630 deaths may be related to a rise in people on the roads caused by lower gas prices and an improved economy. It puts the country on track for the deadliest year since 2007.
Last year's average gas price in the U.S. started near $3.37 and rose to $3.70 before dipping to $3, according to gasbuddy.com. This year's average price started near $2 per gallon and has yet to surpass $2.86.
"It stands to reason if gas is cheaper that people will probably be on the roadways for longer periods of time and more often," said Sharon George, coordinator of Stark County Safe Communities.
Still, she said, it's difficult to pinpoint a definite cause. It may be influenced by numerous factors, such as distracted driving. And Stark County, which had an unexplained spike in roadway deaths last year, typically has a lower rate of seatbelt use and higher rate of impaired drivers than the rest of the state and country.
George said Safe Communities and its partners will continue to host events such as Friday's Drive Sober campaign kickoff event at Stark State to prevent as many deaths as possible.
"Those aren't just solitary numbers," she said. "Those are people, and they affect a lot of other people."

Overcoming common credit policy mistakes
08 May 2015
For a proactive approach to managing credit, you need to identify which problems could be interfering with your company's cash flow and financial security, and then take action to mitigate them. And that starts with understanding the types of oversights that commonly cause issues for organisations.
With respect to general credit policy, some of the biggest pitfalls are:
How big of a difference can credit missteps make? Take the PPS Register, for example, not registering a security interest can have wide-reaching financial implications.
Over the last few months BDO has identified significant risk for some clients totalling in the millions of dollars, where their asset protection as to the PPS Act was non-existent due primarily to a lack of understanding as the PPS Act and the serious consequences that can result from non-compliance.
Other oversights, such as not having a document retention and management strategy in place, can render good steps useless. For example, what is the use of obtaining a personal guarantee for 10 years if you can't produce the paperwork when it comes time to act?
To avoid these pitfalls and manage credit activities in a way that supports business growth - instead of creating vulnerabilities - organisations need to first know what their strengths and weaknesses are. Once you have a solid grasp of what your policies are and whether they appropriately protect your interests, you can take swift action to minimise risk and secure your property.
This can be a challenging process, especially for organisations that aren't well-versed in the ins and outs of laws like the PPS Act. That's why BDO has developed tools to assist companies with these questions.
The Credit Control Scorecard is BDO's approach in assessing a client's strengths and weaknesses in their credit policies and processes. It's about giving credit where credit is due - helping ensure clients retain rights to their assets and receive the payments they're owed.
Many companies need to consider numerous components, and missing out on just one can create a massive amount of unnecessary risk. Getting a stronger handle on credit policies is well worth the effort if you're able to improve your firm's financial security.

Get your romance on "under the stars" at the Hanky Panky Cabin. Couples will love the hot tub on the deck after a full day of outdoor adventure in Gatlinburg and the Great Smoky Mountains - here's a couples tip: Take a hand-in-hand stroll along the Little Pigeon Forge branch. The upstairs sauna is a great choice too if you're winter vacation includes Ober Gatlinburg Amusement Park & Ski Area (skiing and snow tubing are available).
This small cabin can take on a romantic dinner no problem. The fully equipped kitchen allows you to cook a romantic meal together. If you decide to go out for dinner, you are just a short drive to downtown Gatlinburg and all types of cuisine - for a real romantic dinner, make a reservation at Christopher Place's Mountain View Restaurant (candlelight, fireplaces, mountain views, you get the idea). If you can't get enough of the outdoor mountain air and alone time, then fire up the charcoal grill just off the deck.
Sleeping arrangement: Bedroom is on the main level with king size bed and adjoining bath.
Most cabins in Gatlinburg have electric fireplaces. That's not good enough for the Hanky Panky Cabin - this living area has a real snap & crackle wood burning fireplace for that extra touch of romance.
The cabin is high above the parkway of Gatlinburg and has Mountain/Ober Gatlinburg Tramway views. With so many unique "couples" things to do, you'll be glad you book directly with us at Chalet Village. Our friendly loves to help guests plan the most romantic Smoky Mountain getaway ever, no matter what season you visit.
Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge are filled with plenty of great things to do. You've likely heard of Dollywood, Ober Gatlinburg, Ripley's Aquarium Of The Smokies, The Village Shops in Gatlinburg (designed to look like a European shopping district), …
But there are also many 'not so famous' couples oriented destinations: Iris Theater, Sugarlands Riding Stables, A Taste of Gatlinburg Walking Tour brings you to 6 local eateries, plus you'll get a little history lesson of the town. Wine tasting on Rocky Top Wine Trail, Great Smoky Mountain Wheel, Whitewater rafting on the Big Pigeon. If you and your beloved do only one thing in the Smoky Mountains, make sure you step onto a hiking trail. We recommend the sweet reward of a 100-foot Cascading waterfall at Ramsey Cascades Trail. Some of the most breathtaking views for hiking in the Smoky Mountains are found at the Mt. Cammerer Trail (you'll be on the Appalachian Trail for the majority of this hike). Remember to pack a bottle of great wine and some snacks.

Fantastic We reserved the same cabin for our next visit on the ride home. Cathy is great. Thomas From Celina
Cozy and relaxing as always! Great mountain views and loved seeing the tram lift passing over all lit up at night time. Tonya From Mason
Great view, clean and plenty of bears. We saw 5 on 2 mornings. First morning Mom was tagged and the second morning she wasn't and with only one cub. They love the tree next to the driveway. I do wish there was a small table on the deck. Tim From Louisville
Overall experience was great. Upon arrival, noticed the TV in the living room was not working. Called next morning (due to arriving in the later part of the evening) and maintenance came out to fix the TV in a very timely manner. Cabin was very clean, comfortable and warming. James From Beech Grove
Chalet Village has the best website of any cabin rental companies in the Great Smoky Mountains. There are always good options within our budge and each cabin option is unique. The pictures and descriptions are accurate. I feel like our expectations for the cabin size, views of the mountains, amenities, etc. were met because we could see clearly what to expect from the many pictures on the website. There is no washer and dryer which, after looking at the site upon arrival, is correct. I wish it would have stated it again in the cabin description, but they are not included in the list of amenities so it was my error to expect a washer/dryer in the unit. The staff at Chalet Village are, as always, among the best in any business we frequent on trips to the Smoky Mountains! They are superb, professional and friendly. The contract agreement is sent in timely manner and the terms of the agreement are clear. Cleaning staff takes pride in preparing a beautifully cleaned cabin with towels, soaps/detergents, paper towels, toilet paper and clean sheets and pillow cases. Everything in the cabin we chose - Hanky Panky - was in good working order. Angela From Dryden
The management office was very helpful to all of our needs the cabin was beautiful and clean it was a great experience I will most definitely be visiting again in the future. Love everything about the smokies. Sharon From Hermitage
Cabin was very clean and neat well appointed (...except there were no towel racks of any kind???) We very much appreciate this as a "no pet" home / facility, keep it that way. Very convenient to downtown, the tram traveling over the cabin was an interesting visual anomaly when we finally realized it wasn't some strange visiting UFO. Nearby we saw a mother bear with three cubs - exploring a neighbors garbage container. Thomas From Brookfield

Clinical PNI (Psycho-Neuro-Immunology):
An integrated healing approach
By Nicki Edgell
Do you have a complex or long-term health problem? Would you like to tackle chronic health issues, an auto-immune condition, allergies, joint problems, hormonal, digestive or metabolic problems?
Would you like to improve energy & sleep, relieve pain, reduce stress, anxiety or depression, or deal with emotional issues that affect your quality of life?
An Introduction to Clinical Psycho-Neuro-Immunology
Clinical PNI is a science-based and medically integrated approach to healing that helps individuals uncover the solutions to complex or long-term chronic health issues. It focuses on connections between the mind, the nervous system, immune system and our hormonal system, and the role that our modern environment plays in our health.
Clinical PNI uses the latest scientific knowledge of nutrition, immunology, endocrinology, neurology, psychology, evolutionary biology, sociology, epigenetics and exercise science and the interaction between all these systems to help find solutions to chronic health issues.
Nutrition in all its forms, together with physical exercise and psychosocial interventions (for stress, anxiety, low mood), deep learning (explaining what's happening in your body) and the resolution of inflammation form the basis for therapy within clinical PNI.

Creating a Culture of Righteousness
Patients expect 3 things from us: 1) Not to harm me, 2) To heal me, 3) To be nice to me, in that order. Unfortunately, people do get hurt and even die in an environment that is supposed to promote safety, and that is why a stronger emphasis has to be made, and is being made by hospitals across the United States, to reduce chances of harm and to ensure a safe, healthy environment. We all have to realize this: "It starts with me."
The worst thing that can happen is the perfect storm, or the Swiss Cheese phenomenon, where all the circles line up perfectly and all the checks and balances fail, resulting in harm to a patient. They emphasized how important it is that we all share the same values as hospital employees. We MUST value safety, we MUST deter harm, and we MUST do what is best for our patients. When everyone is diligent, if someone or something slips up, there should be someone else around to catch it, question it, clarify it, or whatever is needed to ensure a positive outcome.
We need to all believe in this if it is going to work. If everyone is on board, then when a nurse, for example, doesn't understand an order, she can ask the doctor, "Please clarify that" or "Let me repeat that back to you" without him or her getting angry because they feel their time is being wasted, or they think that if the nurse was diligent and smart, he or she wouldn't have had to repeat it back or ask for clarification. They understand that we need to do whatever it takes to make sure clear communication takes place so we can avoid an error.
This type of environment doesn't just happen. It is created. Everyone has to have the same value system in order to create a culture of safety. It takes a choice to decide that these values are good and worthwhile, and that you will live your life according to the principles that go along with a safe environment. You will change how you speak, how you choose to think and act, how you treat others, and how you respond to crises. Why? Well, for one, it's the right thing to do. Second, you might be a patient in a hospital one day. How do you want to be treated? Third, a loved one of yours may be in that same hospital. How do you want them to be treated? Do you want them to go in for something small, but then the wrong medication is given which takes their life?
Where I work there is an atmosphere of mutual respect, friendliness, quality, safety, and unity. It feels like one big happy family. Granted, it is a relatively small community hospital. But sharing the same values unifies us, and ensures things are done right, without hostility if someone makes a mistake. We learn from mistakes, and do everything we can to make things right and to minimize harm, because that is the goal of everyone working there.
Why am I going into so much detail about a culture of safety? Because that culture was created. What other cultures can be created? Oh, hostile cultures can be created by employees and even employers. Ever work with employees who talk about you behind your back, belittle you, interfere with your projects, or create an unsafe environment?
What about a culture of righteousness? Can a nation create a culture of righteousness? What does righteousness mean? It means doing what is right. Having strong values that say it matters what we do, that we do things right, that we act right, that we do right by others, that we hate evil and wrongdoing and perversion, and we love things that are right and good and uplifting. We strive to encourage eachother to do what is right, and if someone is doing wrong, we lovingly correct them and help them get back on track.
In a culture of safety, how do we correct someone who is doing wrong? First, we approach them with a gentle question. "Did you forget your isolation gown?" If that doesn't work, then make a statement. "Here's an isolation gown for you." If they still won't hear you, then you can go up the ranks, but it's all in the name of doing what is safe and what is right for those around you. We do not live on islands. What we do will always affect others eventually in some way. Ignoring or denying wrong does not help anyone.
Why do people get so upset when wrongs are pointed out? Pride. There's no room for pride in a culture of safety, because any of us can get sloppy, tired, exhausted, aggravated, impatient, or forgetful. Good outcomes are good for all. Let's as a nation, and even as a world, strive toward righteousness, just like a hospital strives for safety, and help each other along to create a climate of goodness, of love, of caring, of life, and of safety, not only physically, but spiritually, intellectually, and emotionally. All these things are nourished when we do what is right, and it benefits everyone.
Just as a hospital has a policy manual, our ultimate manual is the Word of God when it comes to moral standards. Our laws can fail us, but the Word of God provides Truth and guidance on how to live, and is an eternal source. It should guide our laws. Why trust the Word of God? Because there is an authority behind it Who is higher and greater than us. Our loving Creator gave this to us to show us how to live. To Jews only? To Americans only? No - to all nations, all humans, no matter what your background.
Many people from various backgrounds are employed by any given hospital. Does that matter when it comes to safety? No. They are free to be who they are, but while working at the hospital, they will abide by the culture of safety because it is required for a hospital of excellence and safety, to uphold a great reputation within the community.
How do we as a nation want to be viewed by the world? As a mockery because we are foolish in our choices and laws and how we do things? As something that can't be trusted? Or as a beacon of light and hope that would cause others to WANT to come here, not just for economic purposes, but for a family environment where we care about both truth and love? A nation that has a high moral standard provides safety and laws that are righteous, but more importantly, fellow neighbors who believe in showing love, care, and concern for others, and strength of character to do what is right and uphold truth.
WE make this country what it is. WE form the culture. It is created by its citizens. It's time to join hands, and together we can make a difference for good in this world!

Jawline exercises are easy to do because you can incorporate them into your daily routine without needing to really adjust your current commitments. Once you start, you can say goodbye to saggy jowls and droopy skin! One of the most common questions we receive, however, is "how often should you do jawline exercises?"
Well, that depends on what method you're using. We suggest reading our exhaustive guide on jawline exercises for more information.
Chewing Mastic Gum (The Best Way)
By far the simplest method to incorporate into your daily life, you can chew mastic gum any time and anywhere. Mastic gum is so strong you could chew it all day and it still wouldn't be worn out. It's our recommendation to aim for at least 2-3 hours of chewing every day when you first start.
However, don't do this consecutively: try chewing mastic gum for an hour and again later in the day. For example, get your jawline exercise in after lunch and then again after dinner or in the late afternoon. Frankly, it is up to you to best incorporate it into your daily routine, but we would recommend not chewing gum for more than three hours at a time especially if you're just starting. This can cause serious muscle exhaustion which can lead to sagging jowls and is just a bad idea altogether.
If you feel like your jaw is exhausted after chewing, consider taking a break and taking it up again when your jawline muscles recover. Just like any other exercise, you actually do not gain anything by overworking your muscles. After some initial exhaustion, your muscles will strengthen over time and it is then that you will begin to see some definition in your jawline.
Jawline Exercise Tools
The amount of time you should be spending using jawline exercisers depends on which ones you're doing and how new you are to the exercise. For example, Jawzersize recommends using their product for at least 20 minutes daily. JawFlex, on the other hand, is supposed to be used for only 5 minutes daily. How often should you do jaw exercises with one of these tools really depends on the intensity of the exercise.
Consult the respective product instructions for the exact recommended time you should spend using your jawline exerciser daily.
Other Exercises for Your Jaw
There exist other ways to workout your jaw which you can do just on your own without a device or mastic gum. Generally, you should look to spend around 10 minutes every day if doing DIY jawline and facial exercises.
For more information on these face exercise techniques, be sure to see our list of exercises.

Last week, we looked at one seed, a bean seed. This week, we examined and studied several different seeds.
In the above picture are the materials that I gathered for this week's class. I had small magnifying glasses for each child, a large magnifying glass, several different seeds of different shapes and sizes, and some tasty seeds for a snack.
After leafing through some of the books that I had on hand, we started to look at the seeds. Each child had a sheet of paper with pictures of the plant grown from each seed (broccoli, zucchini, green pepper, carrot, sunflower, and tomato seeds) and a circle to glue each one. You can find the worksheet here. We started with the tomato seeds and worked our way down to the broccoli seed. With each seed, we talked about the shape, size, and color. We held them and tapped them on the table.
I set up the larger magnifying glass with the sunflower seeds and the children took turns looking at them. They were perfect because they were large and all different colors.
When we were finished using our ears, eyes, hands, and noses to explore the seeds, we decided it was time to use our taste buds! The children really enjoyed the seed mix that I found at Target. It was really tasty! (The chocolate chips helped!)
This seed unit has been really fun and educational!

Rainy days can be frustrating to say the least. If your gutters are leaking, the frustration grows even more. Leaky gutters can cause all kinds of problems, ranging from a slight annoyance, to a repair valued at tens of thousands of dollars. Here are some of the reasons why you should be checking your gutters for leaks sooner rather than later.
Leaks Lead to Roof and Fascia Damage
When your gutters are leaking and failing to move water as they should, it can result in roof leaks. Most of the time, homeowners are not even aware that these leaks exist until the damage has already been done. By the time you see water spots on the inside of your home -either on the ceiling or the walls- there's a good chance there is already rot, and perhaps mold growth going on behind the scenes.
Siding Can Rot and Show Signs of Damage
Another common problem and tell-tale sign of leaky gutters will be in the siding of a structure. Siding may swell or become discolored; and, depending on the material, it may rot, leading to structural damage. This happens when the water runs over the side of your gutters, rather than through them, and comes into contact with the siding itself. Whether your siding is vinyl, wood, or some other material, this moving water can be detrimental.
Landscape Erosion
Depending on the nature and location of the leak, if the water falls into a flowerbed or even a shrub, it can cause unsightly damage. Leaks that allow water to pool near patios can cause cracks. If the leak falls onto a wooden deck, it can cause discoloration and warping over time. In fact, you may even find water damage on your driveway – or even worse, a serious crack. Water spilling over the sides of your gutters can kill grass and dig trenches into soil, as well.
Flooding Basement or Crawl Space
Flooded basements are another common result of gutter leaks. Remember that when they are working properly, your gutters should be moving water away from your home. When they leak, this can cause pooling around the side of your home. Over time, the water saturates the ground and begins to put pressure on your basement walls, and this can ultimately cause devastating flooding.
Cracking Foundation
Of all the problems directly related to leaking gutters, a cracked foundation is arguably the most devastating. A foundation is responsible for keeping your home stable, and when it has been compromised, your home is in danger of serious damage. Water that pools near your foundation due to leaking gutters is a leading cause of foundation cracks, so it is important to repair any leaks that lead to such pooling immediately.
Your gutters play an important role in keeping your home in good repair. Failing to check them for leaks – and failing to repair any leaks you notice right away – can turn a repair that may have cost $100 or less into a repair that takes tens of thousands of dollars and many months to fix. Call 1-888-909-RAIN to get started on gutter maintenance. We serve thousands of contractors and GutterSupply.com provides all the materials you need to fix leaky gutters, including various gutter materials, at affordable prices.

Please do not ask Rep. Steve King (R-IA) about being a white supremacist.
Even though the Iowa Republican is in the closest race of his 15 years in Congress, King was not able to maintain civility when asked about his very long history of embracing and endorsing white supremacy on Thursday.
At an event in Des Moines, King called for an unidentified man to be removed after the latter calmly asked him about the similarities between his past racist comments and the rhetoric that reportedly inspired last weekend's massacre of 11 people at a Pittsburgh synagogue. King erupted in a temper tantrum that was posted on Twitter by the local news site Iowa Starting Line:
Steve King blows up at questioner who pressed him on the Pittsburgh massacre #IA04 pic.twitter.com/7sFQyY9fOW
— Iowa Starting Line (@IAStartingLine) November 1, 2018
"The terrorist that committed this crime," the questioner began, "he was quoted as saying, 'They bring invaders that kill our people. I can't sit back and watch our people get slaughtered.' You, Steve King, have been quoted as saying, 'You can't restore our civilization with other people's babies.' You and the shooter both share an ideology that is…"
"No!" the GOP congressman interrupted. "Do not associate me with that shooter! I knew you were an ambusher when you walked in the room!"
The questioner attempted to clarify that he was asking King to "distinguish" the differences between his ideology and the racist and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories that were amplified by Pittsburgh gunman Robert Bowers.
But the Iowa Republican continued to yell over any attempted follow-ups.
"You crossed the line! It is not tolerable to associate me with a guy who shot 11 people in Pittsburgh!" King screamed before mentioning that he loves Israel because the nation is the same age as him.
The questioner tried to ask the GOP's resident white supremacist about his many visits with a far-right Austrian party that was founded by literal Nazis, but King was extremely angry by that point.
"I am not listening to another word from you! This is over!" King yelled before gesturing at someone off-screen. "Sir, stop! You're done! Lead this man out of the room!"
The seven-term Republican congressman is clearly struggling with the pressure of the first real challenge of his national political career. On Tuesday, in an apparent response to widespread scrutiny of an interview after the Pittsburgh shooting in which he praised a far-right European political party that was founded by a former Nazi SS officer and said members of the Nazi-linked Austria's Freedom Party "would be Republicans" in the U.S., King called the "attacks" against him "nasty, desperate, and dishonest fake news" on Tuesday.

King has recently devoted his Twitter account to retweeting fellow Republicans who claim he is not racist. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), another GOP lawmaker in a tough re-election fight, reportedly called King on Wednesday to offer his support.
Recent polling has shown J.D. Scholten, King's Democratic challenger in Iowa's 4th congressional district, closing in fast in advance of next week's midterm elections. The Cook Political report moved King's district to "leans Republican" on Tuesday, another sign that the long-time incumbent might finally face some electoral consequences for his white supremacy. Kim Weaver, who unsuccessfully challenged King in 2016, dropped out of the race in June 2017 due to death threats.

Two world records for museum-quality pieces
Monday, July 2nd 2018
Gazette International, Philippe Dufour
For nearly three decades, the Rouillac auction house has been staging its celebrated Garden Party, which returns each year with its share of dramatic turns. The 2018 vintage certainly kept up the tradition, with a total of over € 10,300,000 for 10 June alone.
Le Nain Brothers
Qianlong Moonflask
A large porcelain moon vase with the famous square mark of the Qianlong Emperor (1736- 1795) was knocked down for €5,089,000 to a French buyer, who battled with nine groups of bidders from China and its diaspora. A world record for this type of artefact was merited because "there are only two moon vases like this in the world, so it is priceless," says Maître Rouillac. (The other was sold for € 1,801,000 in April 2016 at Sotheby's Hong Kong.) The vase was probably brought back from China by an ancestor of the family, a general staff officer in the French royal navy, between 1842 and 1847.
The other star of the show, "Christ enfant méditant sur les instruments de la Passion", fetched €3,596,000. This masterpiece by the Le Nain brothers was unknown until recently, when it was discovered by Maître Rouillac at a house in the Vendée. This posted a world record for a work by the artist brothers, despite being forbidden to leave the territory, as a national treasure, by the Ministry of Culture. It fired the enthusiasm of three French collectors, one of whom carried it off without interference from the Musées Nationaux, which unexpectedly did not invoke their right to preempt.
Montbazon, 10 June, Rouillac auction house.

SINGAPORE - Former China tour guide Yang Yin, who is facing two charges of misappropriating $1.1 million belonging to a widow, took the witness stand on the seventh day of his trial on Tuesday morning (Aug 2) to deny his charges.
Yang, 42, maintained that the money was a gift from 89-year-old Madam Chung Khin Chun, who is childless and was diagnosed with dementia in 2014.
He also told the court he lied to police about using the cash to buy paintings, because she did not want anyone to find out she had passed him money to avoid jealousy and gossip.
But Yang told the court he was telling the truth now. "I've already been in jail for two years. I just want to go home."
Yang is accused of committing criminal breach of trust involving $500,000 on Feb 19, 2010, and involving $600,000 on Jan 18, 2012.
During the 2½ hours that he testified through a Mandarin interpreter on Tuesday, Yang said he first came to Singapore in 2006 for a travel fair, where he met Madam Chung and her husband, who later died in July 2007.
Madam Chung and her friend Madam Chang Phie Chin, 86, met Yang when they went to Beijing in late 2008. Madam Chung asked Yang to call her every day after she returned to Singapore and he did.
Later, she asked him to "accompany" her at home in Singapore, telling him she would provide for his living expenses.
Yang came to Singapore in 2009, after Chinese New Year, and was given a hongbao of $5,000.
"I felt she wasn't joking... she wanted me to come over," said Yang.
"So I told my parents and wife and they replied: you have such a wonderful grandmother in Singapore, she seems to be treating you as her own grandson.
"You should treat her well and you shouldn't let her down. Not everyone can meet such a wonderful grandmother in life," Yang added.
In 2010, Madam Chung made a will in which Yang stood to inherit everything.
In 2011, Madam Chang asked for half of Madam Chung's money, Yang said. "I rejected. I said that this money can be shared among us. But it is to be used on our living expenses.
"Madam Chang upon hearing this was very displeased. About three to four days after having the conversation she left the home and never returned to see Madam Chung."
Yang also told the court Madam Chung had confided in him that Madam Chang was her late husband's mistress. "After I heard that I was a little taken aback," he said.
Yang lived in Madam Chung's Gerald Crescent bungalow from 2009 until 2014.
Every morning, after she had her breakfast and read the newspaper, Madam Chung would invite him to her room to talk to her, Yang said. She would also ask him to watch television with her in her room every evening after dinner. And they would shop for groceries together at Ang Mo Kio Hub every Friday.
Madam Chung's friends would visit her about once a month, while her niece, Madam Hedy Mok, would visit her once every few months, Yang said. Madam Chung told Yang to avoid the visitors to her home, he said, because she "did not want other to know about our relationship".
In 2013, after Chinese New Year, she told him to bring his wife and two children over to Singapore. They arrived in August 2013, on tickets that Yang bought.
"Madam Chung was very happy because she had the children to play with. She felt that the home was livelier. It did not seem as boring as when the two of us were alone together," Yang said.
In April last year, the courts recognised a new statutory will that Madam Mok made on Madam Chung's behalf, that would leave most of her assets to charity.
Madam Mok took out a series of civil actions in 2014, saying her aunt had been unduly influenced by Yang. She also sued him for manipulating the widow to control her assets, worth an estimated $40 million.
Yang was arrested in Sept 2014 and charged a month later with a slew of crimes - mostly related to falsifying receipts made to his company, Young Dance and Music Studio, so he could stay in Singapore.
Yang, who has been in remand since October 2014, was also charged with cheating, immigration crimes and breaking Companies Act laws.
On May 31, he pleaded guilty to 120 out of 347 charges. The rest will be taken into account when he is sentenced, after the ongoing trial for his most serious charges is over.
The trial is scheduled to resume on Wednesday (Aug 3) with Yang's cross-examination.

|Peter Swan failed to deal with a nothing ball
This season has so far been pretty special as far as away form goes, to the point where I was wondering whether or not I should have forgotten about the season ticket and put the £300 quid towards 23 away trips. Four away wins by the middle of November? For most of my time watching Burnley four away wins in a season has been par for the course.
The mid-1990s in particular weren't just dark times for away travellers; they were as black as the Earl of Hell's waistcoat. Our inability to pick up points away from Turf Moor had almost scuppered our promotion bid in 1993/94, and in 1994/95 we'd rewritten the book on how not to survive at a higher level. The promotion campaign never seemed to gain momentum in the following season but we were fifth in January before a horrible run of results saw us slip out of the play-off slots, pressure on the board grew to ridiculous levels (residents of Brunshaw Road must have been hearing "Teasdale Out" in their sleep) and Mullen departed in a manner wholly unbefitting what he'd done for us. With Mullen gone the team was left in the hands of his assistant, Clive Middlemass – and following on from our textbook lesson in not coping with the step-up in class in 1994/95, Middlemass gave a near-flawless demonstration of how not to impress a potential employer in his three-game stint. Home defeat to Blackpool wasn't good. Three-all at home to a York side who'd end the season relegated was bad. But these were as nothing compared to Clive's only away game in charge at Hull…
Our relatively good position in the League, combined with the knowledge that Hull hadn't won at home in the League in six months or anywhere at all in two, meant a fairly decent number making the trip to Humberside. Things started going wrong from an early stage though - the supporters' coach, as was their wont, got us to the ground ridiculously early. This gave us the opportunity to avail ourselves of the delights of the area surrounding Boothferry Park, which mainly seemed to consist of rain. It was absolutely lashing it down and the car park was gradually filling up with people looking in serious danger of drowning on dry land.
I can't remember now why we decided against a pub visit but anyway, there we were for over an hour having to entertain ourselves on a wind-swept, rain-lashed expanse of concrete under a leaden sky. A rudimentary kickabout was improvised after some young lad produced a football, only for an errant volley to see the ball caught by the wind and never seen again. Damn. What to do, what to do… aimless milling about filled a couple of minutes, a discussion of the merits of our last few performances filled about thirty seconds, a discussion on the flaws in our last few performances would have taken about a week so we didn't even attempt it. Analyse a two-nil defeat at home to Oxford? Masochism only goes so far and had been adequately sated by having to sit through the game itself.
Ah-ha, a light in the distance. A palace of glittering delights? No, just the Hull club shop, but at least it was indoors and offered a slightly more enjoyable way of spending the time than wondering whether the increasingly uncomfortable feeling in my feet was my shoes filling up with water or the onset of trench foot. In we trooped, bringing a gleam to the eye of the bloke behind the counter as he saw half-a-dozen potential customers all at once – a gleam that died fairly quickly as it became apparent we were in there purely and simply to escape the monsoon outside and had no intention of actually spending any money. The shop itself was just a counter with the range of merchandise hanging from the back wall – pretty standard stuff apart from some (of all things) underwear embroidered with the legend "I've Scored At Boothferry Park!". Bearing in mind Hull's abysmally inept home form, I quipped that they obviously weren't official team kit. A fairly feeble attempt at a joke at the time, if truth be told, and one which looked even less amusing three hours later…
At this point someone decided to take pity on the sodden mass of humanity in the car-park, and opened the turnstiles. The entertainment possibilities of the Boothferry Park exterior having been thoroughly exhausted, we handed over our cash at the turnstiles in the hope that the Boothferry Park interior would be better. Not for the first or last time that afternoon, optimism proved to be horribly misplaced – the rain intensified and now we were stuck on an open terrace. Well, mainly open. There was an overhang at the back of this terrace which offered a semblance of shelter, and gave the assembled Burnley fans a chance to cease their attempt on the dry-land-drowning world record, and have a bash at the "Most People Standing On One Stair Of Terracing" crown instead. I watched penguins huddling together for warmth in Antarctica on 'Planet Earth' the other week, and the similarity was overwhelming. All that was missing were claret and blue scarves. And fags. And swearing.
|Wayne Russell cleared straight to a Hull player
Three o'clock draws near and Lord have mercy, a miracle: the rain stops. The atmosphere in the away end undergoes a palpable change for the better. People start to spread out into the whole away terrace, easing the pressure on the poor souls up against the wall who can now breathe out in comfort having spent the last half-hour being laminated into the brickwork by the press of people trying to avoid the torrential downpour. Optimism stalks the away terrace at Boothferry Park like a big claret and blue stalking thing, as memories of our recent abysmal performances are seemingly cleansed from the collective consciousness. "Ah-ha," I thought, "the Gods smile upon us!"
Having decided to give us 90 minutes to dry off however, the Gods decided that they'd done their good deed for the day and the game that followed was – and by some distance – one of the worst experiences I've ever had in 20 seasons of regular match going. Mere minutes into the game Peter Swan made a complete Horlicks of dealing with a nothing ball into the box, and instead of chesting it back to Wayne Russell allowed the ball to roll down his chest, gut, and thigh into the path of a forward who was so stunned at our ineptitude he slammed the ball home then looked around to seemingly make sure he hadn't been the victim of some bizarre "Beadle's About"-type stunt. Having established that no, it wasn't a joke and yes, we had just gifted him the easiest goal of his career, he took the applause from three sides of the ground while the Burnley contingent stood dumbstruck at our ability to shoot ourselves in the foot.
The rest of the game was entirely typical of most of the mid-90s as we contrived to make a poor team look like world-beaters. Defensively shoddy, virtually non-existent in attack, almost invisible in midfield… it spoke volumes that probably our best performance on the day came from Steve Thompson, just back from injury and seemingly as stunned as the travelling fans at just how rubbish we were. Thompson's midfield partner was Gerry Harrison, and his one spark of aggression in the 90 minutes was telling my mate to "**** off" after he'd told him to pull his finger out - there'd have been calls for him to be shot at dawn if he'd tried that at Goodison this season. When Russell came to the edge of his area and put his attempted clearance straight to the feet of a Hull player who returned it with interest over his head and into the net, it just summed up perfectly the whole, sad, sorry, miserable experience.
Other games have been almost as bad – Port Vale in 94/95 and Macclesfield in 98/99 – but they don't stick in the memory as much as this one. The appalling weather and shambolic performance just combine so horribly perfectly. A game to remember, unfortunately…
The teams were;
Hull: Roy Carroll, Simon Trevitt, Jimmy Graham, Gary Hobson, Neil Allison, Greg Abbott, Richard Peacock, Chris Lee (Craig Lawford), Bobby Davison, Neil Mann (Kenny Gilbert), Andy Williams.
Burnley: Wayne Russell, Gerry Harrison, Peter Swan, Mark Winstanley, Chris Vinnicombe, Liam Robinson, Warren Joyce, Steve Thompson, Jamie Hoyland, Kurt Nogan, Ian Helliwell (John Francis).
Attendance: 4,206
Scorers: Hull 3 (Peacock 2, Davison) Burnley 0

On a duck egg blue background, the sophisticated Lilium floral does its thing in pretty red-pink, soft taupe, and pale beige, creating a classic look with a contemporary twist. With its faded antique finish, it works perfectly with the traditional curves of the Roman blind design.
Add luxury and elegance to either a contemporary or traditional living room by hanging the Lilium amongst matching cream-beige walls and matching red sofas. Use the taupe, and complementary golds, to accent the room in the form of cushions, lamps, and finishings.
Please Note: Roman blinds over 130cm wide require vertical seams due to limited fabric width. We recommended you split large windows into smaller blinds.

Sciatica, what helps?
I think I've got sciatica. Shooting pain down my right leg. I got it after moving a piano in my house. It hurts when i stand, and hurts when I walk. Any idea how long this will last? Any tips on how to treat it and reduce the pain? When should i go and see a doctor?
4 Responses
The majority of back pain goes away. I think the treatment depends upon the cause, but I found several stretches to be very successful. I would try the following stretches: Video Series: Exercises for Sciatica (Caused by Herniated Disc)
They are working for my sciatica. My doc said don't stop exercising, stay active, stretch 2x per day, take ibuprofen and come back if it doesnt get better in 4 weeks.
Hope this help...
I would go to your primary care doc first. They can prescribe a medication to help alleviate the pain while you work to strengthen your back. Definitely keep moving, stretching, walking, etc... If it doesnt get better in a couple of weeks and you continue to have the leg pain, then go to a specialist.
I have constant sciatica in my right leg as a result of a life time of accidents and physical labor. My advice is that you take this seriously and rest while finding a good neurologist to discuss options. Options may include an MRI to see if you have a bulging disc or a herniation causing sciatica. The sciatica nerves attach in the low back to the spinal cord. You will want to research the nerves and where they attach so you have a better understanding. I always thought mind over matter and that worked, along with pain pills for many years, however, if I had it as an option to do over, I would research more right away and take better care of myself. I am 43 and after a very active life, I am faced with a life of disability, unable to work or even get out of the house. Take care of yourself and avoid moving pianos.....
Has anyone tried Gavapentin? My brother takes this and it helps. I have sciatica in my left leg and sometimes feel like I can't move my leg/hip. My leg hurts worse when I am lying down trying to sleep. My neuro. is thinking of putting me on Gavapentin. Any thoughts??

It is confirmed. The breakdown of the bond bull market which lasted almost 4 decades is now a fact. We wrote about it earlier this week in Major Turning Point: End Of 40-Year Bull Market In Bonds but the confirmation was not there yet. Now it is. This article includes 3 must-see charts on the breakdown of the bond bull market, and what it may imply going forward.
Note the breakdown of the bond bull market is a major theme. It is a once-in-a-decade type of market event. Moreover, it is a once-in-a-generation turnaround in the bond market. We will provide lots of coverage on how this plays out.
Needless to say, the breakdown of the bond bull market should be the number one priority on every investor's mind.
Breakdown Of The Bond Bull Market: What Does This Mean?
Let's repeat what we said earlier in our article mentioned above:
In other words, a massive level of capital, never seen before, in the order of $40 trillion, will start moving around. Obviously, not all of it, but a considerable part will move elsewhere. Can anyone imagine what will happen if this becomes a trend into the same direction. Correct: stampede.
There will be major capital flows out of the bond market into other markets. The trillion-dollar question is: where exactly will money flow into.
Anyone is free to forecast what may happen, but this is a classic case in which only the market and time will tell. All our 2019 market forecasts may get invalidated if the market takes the unexpected path of bonds down with stocks down with commodities down.
In other words please be careful when you read articles like this one bond market sell-off weighs on stocks on Financial Times or any other financial media site. Although they are to the point for that one specific day they described it is the mid to long term impact that investors must watch.
Breakdown Of The Bond Bull Market: TLT Breakdown
First, the bond market confirmed its breakdown this week, as seen on the TLT chart.
The TLT ETF, representing 20 year bonds, has broken down below 4 year support. Though we need 2 more weekly closes below 117 points the break is so aggressive that it's fair to say the breakdown is for real already now. This will have major implications on global markets, to be confirmed which ones exactly!
Breakdown Of The Bond Bull Market: Yen Breakdown
Second, it is clear, so far, that safe havens did not get a bid. The first capital outflow of TLT did not go into the Yen, a very intuitive market that would get a safe have bid.
The Yen breaks down on its weekly chart. Note, though, it did not break down on its monthly though.
Also the Swiss Franc got hit hard this week as seen on this chart.
Breakdown Of The Bond Bull Market: Russell 2000 at make-or-break level
After the 3.8% retracement in the U.S. small cap stocks index Russell 2000 it is important now to watch the effect on stock markets.
The first effect, in the same week the bond market broke down, is negative on stocks. Note, however, that one week does not make a market. U.S. stocks still trade in their long term bull market. But will they continue to do so?
Presumably "yes" is our answer because the bond market exodus implies a risk-on sentiment.
Still, we must see all stock bull market levels respected, and that's why we will watch this space closely in the next few weeks and months. Only time will tell, but, as said, this is by far the most important theme in markets. Resolution will become clear, but stay focused and certainly open minded in this type of market environment.

Are you again upset today, feeling dejected? Is there sadness all around you or somewhere in your heart? Is there something not letting you stay calm? These feelings surround you everyday and make you do 'things' and you know what I mean. Yes, you are right there- you fight, get irritated, leave your work incomplete, eat a lot or go to sleep, right? The root cause of all these situations is – he did not appreciate your work (it can be even the smallest one which no one can notice). To be worse, he did not even bother to look at your efforts.
You wake up with an enthusiasm of doing your best and unfolding it in front of him expecting that he will be surprised and mesmerised. (even if you present something very normal), like really? In the end when he doesn't even notice, your expectations come crashing down and then, those 'things' happen.
So, dear girls and fully matured women too, everyone knows, you like to be pampered every now and then. It's right, it's lovely and to be more accurate it's too cute. But here you are being quite stone hearted. It might be possible that he is not interested in your field, your work. This not at all means he is not interested in you. You take things in that way, suffer the consequences yourself and of course, make him suffer too. The toughest part of this situation for him is, when you behave in an unusual manner and he asks the reason, you just beat around the bush and try to make the air so gloomy as if the world is coming to an end.
You are a girl and naturally you like to know more about others (this is very correct). This is the reason you keep on asking about his plans, his work and even compliment him when you find that he is doing good and in return you expect the same. Here you will have to understand that men are little (or sometimes too) sophisticated. It can happen even with you when he is about to tell you about his efforts and accomplishments and you are not there to listen. But just analyse, he will not panic or make it a big issue. He will just let it go and wait for another day and this is the fact.
Whether you are a designer, writer, or you do something technical and he is a businessman, a manager, a lawyer or a scientist, his ways will be totally different than yours. Just think, Both of you have entirely different dreams to achieve. So, achieve them on your own. This does not mean you do not need each other's support, of course, you do, but wanting his attention everytime at every single step is difficult. Infact, share it with your friends working in the same field and I think this can help you get better ideas and even compliments. The more you succeed the more he will be relieved. Don't worry, In the end, you will find him always with you.
And dear men, a small message to you – if she likes to be appreciated, especially by you then do so, try to understand emotions at least sometimes or a little more, just for her…

EDIT: This release has been superseded, please get the latest release.
I have been playing around with the code that makes the F200's touch screen tick and have come to a point where it is just about working.
It should also be fine on the old F100's and it will just not try and use a touch screen.
There are some snags and as I currently don't have any working GP2X (let alone an F200) this is very majorly untested. Never the less the helpful people in #GP2XDev on EfNet (and Paeryn) have given me loads of help with code and testing and it at least loads some games and the touch screen works.
There are caveats however…
- The mouse pointer is currently shown (I'll fix that a little later).
- Accuracy may well be very variable.
- There is no right click (I'll add push and hold for right licks like most PDAs if I can figure out a neat way).
- On games that run at a native resolution higher then 320*240 I have no idea what will happen (who wants to try that and let me know).
- I am told it does not seem to work if the GP2X is in the cradle/BoB, not sure why just yet. The code should just detect if a USB mouse is added and disable the touch screen but it seems to hang up if the cradle is connected. One to look at later.
For ease I built off the 0.10.0 release code rather then the current SVN so I had a stable base to work from.
Anyway, on to a download.

There is a thread on the ScummVM forums for feedback here.

I think that using set language here might be a mistake. Using 'layering' language is IMHO, much more indicative of what's being attempted. I'm not sure if its the case here but I know that most engineers that deal with the lower layers of the network (layers 7 and down) understand that for the most part, layers assume data encapsulation: i.e. an ethernet packet's payload is formatted as an IP packet, an IP packet's payload is formatted as a TCP packet, a TCP packet's payload is formatted as a segment of an SMTP stream, etc. In my 'layered' view, the SW is a layer above the web, and as such a SW 'resource' contains at its heart, a Web resource. You _could_ think of it this way: it's the same object with multiple interfaces, the Uri-Resource view found in 2396 being the equivalent of an IUnknown interface (just without the ability to query for the other interfaces)'. As you go up the layers you end up with more available interfaces to pick from.... > Here's how I've been viewing the relationship between the Web > and Semantic Web: > > The Web is a network of linked representations of resources, where > those representations are accessible via URIs.

Way to limiting and short sighted. Are Resources identified by these URI schemes part of the web: ldap:, urn:, mailto:, go:, cid:? They're used in many deployed systems that rather large communities consider to be very much connected to the 'web'. > The only resources which are both "on the web" and part of that physical > network of representations are representations which are denoted by URIs > which resolve to a bit-equal copy of themselves. bit-equality has never been sufficient... network quality of service, security, signatures, out of band payments, authority, etc, all have extremely important impacts on whether or not two objects can be considered 'equal' or not. Entire industries will take you to court over your assertion that the mp3 I paid for and the one that you didn't pay for are the same object. -MMReceived on Thursday, 17 July 2003 13:22:25 UTC

Montenegro is a small country perched on the coastline of the Adriatic between Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Albania. Having only claimed independence in 2006, this Balkan country is often overshadowed by other Eastern European destinations such as Croatia. However, Montenegro can definitely hold its own as an unforgettable travel destination, boasting crystal blue waters, beautiful mountain ranges and breathtaking scenery – Montenegro is said to have some of the most amazing terrain of any European country of its size, despite being less than 300 km from tip to toe, Montenegro is absolutely worth a visit.
One of the many reasons that people often fall in love with this country is the warmness of its people. The people are the pride of the country with candid, charismatic, cheerful locals. Regardless of where you are in the country, the people will greet you with a big hug and huge smile. It is said that all Montenegrins wish to do is to please you (and feed you).
It is difficult to visit Montenegro and not be awestruck by the breath-taking scenery. Home to hundreds of natural wonders such as Tara Canyon, The Black Lake and the Bay of Kotor. This jewel in the Adriatic allows you to be basking in the sun with the sea lapping at your feet one day and the next be hiking or skiing upon the mountain slopes.
The many contrasting terrains can provide a wide range of opportunities to indulge your adventurous side: climb to the top of Kotor fortress and gaze down upon the spectacular views of Montenegro, white water raft through Tara Canyon, or even explore the ice caves hidden in the black lake. Even more can be discovered if you take a step off the beaten track and explore the secluded that this beautiful haven has to offer.
With such a wide array of natural habitats, you will not be surprised to hear that the forests and mountains are home to many wild species. With brown bears, wolves, deer and lynx – to name but a few. Tours allow you to come within metres of these animals that that roam freely in the largely undisturbed fauna.
As well as natural beauty, Montenegro harbours hundreds of years of architecture, culture and history. Within National park, there is the infamous Njegoš Mausoleum, where Petar II Petrović-Njegoš rests. To reach the Mausoleum you have to trek up the 461 steps, however that is often the greatest part of the experience! On the journey up you are privy to some of the best views in Montenegro. There is also the Ostrog Monastery imbedded in the 900m cliff face above Zeta Valley. There are many myths about the Monastery and the miracles that have taken place there – one of the reasons why over 1 million people a year visit this phenomenon of nature and human intervention.
- Direct Flights
- GMT +1 hour
- 45 hours from LON
- June and September are the best times to visit
In Montenegro, you must:
- Take a sports car through Durmitor National Park – race round the hairpin bends whilst passing glacial lakes and mountain faces.
- Spend a day on Tara River. White water raft past waterfalls, gorges and historical landmarks. If you get thirsty, you can always take a cup of water from the drinkable river.
- Eat at a Cevabdzinica. The local delicacy, Ćevapi, is a grilled dish of minced meat and skinless sausage is the equivalent to a kebab in the UK.
- Visit Kotor Old City, where you can indulge in local cheeses, wine and fresh seafood whilst exploring the vast amount of churches and ruins.

Independence is the ultimate goal for the people who lives are touched by Sydney Women's Fund.
'Place-Based philanthropy' is strategic social investment for impact into a geographic area of entrenched disadvantage.
Designed to shine a light on the 'forgotten' suburbs and communities in the most disadvantaged local government areas and help reduce social problems that government or community service providers cannot effectively tackle alone.
This location focused granting seeks to bring together resources needed by the community to support the changes they wish to achieve.
With SCF and SWF support, we've seen one social enterprise become five, providing employment to people in need; a business skills class become a retail shop; at-risk youth become the first in three generations to finish school; young girls saved from prostitution and empowered to make better life choices; young boys coached away from gangs and taught how to have respectful relationships; long-term unemployed re-skilled; refugees, tortured and traumatised, gently supported to recovery and a new life in Sydney.
"I believe the partnership we have formed with the Sydney Community Foundation and their donors has brought about enormous change in the community, it has empowered women, fostered community engagement and created community leaders."
– Pat Hall, Community Development Manager, Liverpool Neighbourhood Connections.
June Oscar AO delivers keynote at the annual 'Empowering Women, Changing Lives' breakfast at Parliament House, hosted by Sydney Community Foundation, Sydney Women's Fund and the Keeping Women Out of Prison Coalition.
"We spend an estimated $16 billion a year on our criminal justice system. The lack of rehabilitation programs and training programs on the inside, limited diversionary options, and barely any supports to reintegrate into society means that we are failing the justice systems reform agenda, which is seeing our prison population skyrocket."
– June Oscar AO, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Social Justice Commissioner, Australian Human Rights Commission.
"I am able to use my experience and training to empower families and the next generation to achieve their full potential, addressing behavioural, learning and attendance issues across Kindergarten – Year 6. I strive to be a powerful advocate and voice for Aboriginal children and their families."
– Maree Hutchinson, 2012 Recipient Maybanke Anderson Scholarship at Macquarie University now Aboriginal Education Officer at a school in Wauchope, Port Macquarie.
The Maybanke Anderson Scholarship provides financial support for aspiring early childhood educators to help them finish their studies, qualify and return to work in their communities.
"When I first came to RISE, I was very in my own world. I was extremely shy, and barely spoke much. Within three months, by just going to RISE three days a week, the community and our teacher really help me come out of my shell. I'm now a successful trainee in childcare, my dream job at the age of 15."
– Amelia, 15 year old student in RISE – Re-engagement with Learning Program co-designed by Sydney Community Foundation with Whitelion and the community of Claymore in the Sydney Macarthur Region.

Rocket League Switch Over ReviewPar RocketleagueNews dans Accueil le 26 Décembre 2017 à 07:08
That is reasonable to state that when Rocket League first appeared everyone wasn't expecting far, the PS4's PS Plus offerings weren't exactly filled with titles that are amazing, solid perhaps, but not wonderful. That was until Rocket League came together and completely reversed the script, it was available completely free for PS Plus subscribers, and found on PC at exactly the identical time, it's popularity deservedly sky rocketed. And you'll be able to understand their enthusiasm. The Switch is an excellent console, enabling similar experiences both in your home and out and about, but does it has power hold back it from competing with the big boys in the biggest names? Obtain the rocket league keys free and dominate the online multi player games stage!
Today, it shouldn't be viewed out of bounds to say that the Switch isn't the most effective console around right now, so you should not expect vents from PS4 and XB1 to like the initial, and Rocket League isn't. There exists a sub par HD resolution in both docked and portable modes with little to no antialiasing, what's impressive though is the level-of-detail scaling, that will be made incredibly obvious like walls, cars and the chunk itself make more step by step the closer for the ones you possibly get. Rocket League itself isn't probably the most visibly demanding game, but considering it HAS to aim 60fps in both docked and handheld modes to ease cross platform multi player (without PlayStation obviously) a concession required to be forced to ensure this, and in such a case it was resolution, click this link.
Don't go believing that this is actually the ending of the world though, yes it does look a bit rough round the edges, however there aren't any shadows, but that IS Rocket League, and everything bar the looks has moved over exactly as it should. Snow Days can there be, in addition to the Hoops Basketball manner, and it all feels and feels like it has bigger match cousins. The rougher looks are almost unnoticeable in motion, which means you really are getting the full-fat game here with absolutely zero gameplay concessions, what more can you request?
If the answer to the previous question was split screen-play in portable manner, then you've got your wish. Two players can play with split screen just like any two player racing game with a Joy-Con each, you may even play your friends online, with a package of invite and multiplayer options that puts Nintendo's very own Splatoon to shame.
It's become a bit cliche to predict a game 'perfect for Switch' and for a shift, while Rocket League is welcome, so it's not a great fit for Switch. Panic Button has done a stellar job transposing the game on an inferior powered format with all the main nagging concession being aesthetics. If you really don't own rocket league game already then that is just a no brainer, it's amazing, always was and always would be, but this is not the definitive home because of this. It's still a wonderful game though and don't let anybody tell you differently.

Classic Nikon 80mm f15 has arrived
Posted 28 June 2007 - 10:07 PM
It is going to need some restoration-Tripod refinishing, tube chips, mount disassembly and regrease, and polishing all metal parts.
BUT, the lens looks great! This scope is from 1977 and the coating technology is amazing. When you look into the OG, you see nothing but a faint outline of your head. No reflection.
The finder is a work of art with 3 baffles! Even it appears to have some kind of very nice coating. The focuser is smooth and has an etched micrometer for astrophotography. The mount CW's are threaded and the shaft is a ridiculous 18mm diameter.
I have added a couple of pictures. Note the 4" f15 next to the Nikon. They are similar in size. The mount for the 4" is a Vixen Super Polaris and this Nikon dwarfs it. But, this mount is not adjustable for latitude. Basically, you are limited to 33-37 degrees for astrophotography. Visual should be fine anywhere with minor dec adjustments. Of course, I will never find an RA drive, so anything besides quick CCD planetary is out anyway.
The scope came with 3 very nice Nikon EP's, the super fancy solar projection system, an eyepiece projection adapter that is of unbelieveable quality, a straight thru adapter, and box for the OTA.
I think my biggest challenge is going to be that the .965" diagonal threads into the focuser tube. Finding a 1.25" adapter of some sort is going to be tough.
You can see many more pictures of this telescope at..

I do not think the former owner had been using it too much, so I am excited to get it out and try it. Unfortunately, we are headed out on a 2 week vacation so it will have to wait. I have heard the optics on these are some of the best, if not the best.
In typical fashion...my 3" Goto 106 is the same, the legs are not adjustable. So, I would have to prop it up to adjust the latitude.

Seriously, they look like wonderful instruments of superb quality and craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing!
Posted 29 June 2007 - 10:06 AM
I'm sure you will enjoy your fine new telescope.

I think my biggest challenge is going to be that the .965" diagonal threads into the focuser tube. Finding a 1.25" adapter of some sort is going to be tough.
If you can't find a screw-on 1.25" visual back/adapter, you might have to use an eyepiece reducer 1.25" - .965". My little Asahi-Pentax scope I have on the way is the same - the diagonal threads onto the drawtube. Agena Astro sells the eyepiece adapters for about $15.00
Regards and clear skies,

The views are fabulous pin-point stars and black background; something to behold for sure.
I am proud to see it in a good caring home and should only go up in value over the years since it is such a rarity.
There are motor drives specifically made for it and would need to be located but it would be difficult. The mount is meant to be adjusted by the leg positioning and it has a range of 33 to 35 deg as noted. An adjustable pier could be fabricated to accept the mount head since it is bolted as a part of a 2-piece assembly to the tripod thereby making it altitude adjustable.
Best Regards,

We didn't know so,Nikon released it at a cheap price,only 89500yen.
I wanted to buy it, but I was not able to buy it because no money,at 1971.
Only one year later, it was raised to 168000yen.
I felled sorry very much and lost interest.
Now, As for the good thing of degree, it is priced about 150000-200000yen in japan.
