Das neue Modul der etablierten Agentursoftware kommt dabei besonders Agenturen zugute, die in Units denken oder sich über mehr als einen Standort verteilen. Kleinen wie großen Agenturen kann es helfen, Aufgaben transparenter zu kommunizieren. (firmenpresse) - Das neue KBMpro RaumZeit-Modul klingt nach Raumschiff Enterprise, ist aber wesentlich einfacher gemeint: es betrifft die Zeitplanung und Aufgaben-verteilung für Mitarbeiter bezogen auf einen (Büro-) Raum. Konkret bietet das Modul eine übersichtliche Planung per 5-Tages-Vorschau, bezogen auf die Aufgaben der jeweiligen Mitarbeiter. In Kombination mit einem Wandmonitor kann ein übersichtlicher Tagesplan dargestellt werden, der somit das übliche Whiteboard ersetzt. Mitarbeiter, die beispielsweise als Unit in einem Raum zusammenarbeiten, bekommen die Aufgaben des Tages, aufgeteilt in Spalten pro Person, aktuell auf dem Monitor angezeigt. Berücksichtigt werden neben der To-do-Liste des Tages auch konkrete Termine wie Anruf bei Kunde XY um 14 Uhr sowie anstehende Urlaubstage oder Fortbildungen.Weitere Vorteile: Die Mitarbeiter müssen kein Hintergrundfenster nach vorne holen oder gar ein Programm öffnen, um die eigenen Aufgaben oder die der Kollegen einzusehen, ein kurzer Blick zur Wand reicht. Das spart Zeit und zwingt das Projektmanagement, die Informationen auf das Notwendigste zu beschränken. Zudem wird die Transparenz der internen Arbeitsabläufe erhöht. Das erweist sich gerade dann als hilfreich, wenn bei plötzlicher Erkrankung eines Mitarbeiters direkt zu sehen ist, welche seiner Aufgaben vom Team übernommen werden müssen.Bei großen Agenturen kann das Modul auch standortübergreifend eingesetzt werden, um Projekte besser zu koordinieren und Änderungen im Plan sofort allen Beteiligten anzuzeigen. Dabei lässt das Modul selbstverständlich die Vergabe unterschiedliche Rechte zu. Der Projektmanager kann so entscheiden, ob ein Mitarbeiter zum Beispiel eigenständig Aufgaben als erledigt kennzeichnen darf oder nicht. Änderungen im Aufgabenpool können dabei einfach per Drag&Drop verschoben werden.Die Firma dmmd hat das RaumZeit-Modul samt Wandmonitor bereits selbst erfolgreich im Einsatz.

http://www.firmenpresse.de/pressrelease502367.html | Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen TrilioVault, the only data protection solution native to OpenStack is now validated for Mirantis OpenStack (firmenpresse) - HOPKINTON, MA -- (Marketwired) -- 10/24/16 -- , the creators of the first and only comprehensive data protection, backup and recovery solution native to OpenStack has announced that TrilioVault is now validated for Mirantis OpenStack. Organizations who rely on Mirantis for their OpenStack deployments are now assured that with TrilioVault tenants will enjoy greater resiliency and operational efficiencies. "While some developers may think back up and recovery is not necessary for OpenStack DevOps, that's actually not the case," said Kamesh Pemmaraju, VP of product marketing at Mirantis. "Once an OpenStack application goes into deployment, backup and recovery -- along with comprehensive data protection -- become a key business requirement. This issue is becoming a significant obstacle for business units to embrace and release business critical applications on OpenStack. More forward-looking DevOps groups are recognizing this and are building data protection solutions into their environments at the beginning of their OpenStack journey." "Mirantis makes it easy for organizations to adopt, develop, and -- much more importantly -- use and maintain OpenStack environments," said David Safaii, CEO of Trilio Data. "Sometimes the DevOps piece of a project is the fun and easy part; the hard part of a project can be the ongoing care, feeding and maintenance of long-term applications and its tenants. Mirantis and Trilio has solved this issue for many types of businesses and organizations throughout the world." TrilioVault adheres to the characteristics required by cloud environments and is flexible, fault tolerant, and forever scalable. It offers seamless self-service, multi-tenant, policy-based comprehensive backup and recovery of workloads running in OpenStack. The solution captures environmental points-in-time (application, OS, compute, network, configurations, security groups, data and metadata of an environment) as full or incremental snapshots. These snapshots can be held in a variety of storage environments including NFS, Swift and 3rd party arrays. With TrilioVault's single-click recovery, organizations not only improve Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO), but also can have the confidence of migrating legacy applications and workloads into production environments with no fear of data loss. IT departments can fully deploy OpenStack solutions and provide business assurance through enhanced data retention, protection and integrity.

TWITTER / @Atleti El equipo español renueva al joven jugador belga, anuncian este viernes MADRID, ESPAÑA (21/OCT/2016).- Atlético de Madrid renovó el contrato del extremo belga Yannick Carrasco hasta junio de 2022, anunció el viernes el club español. El atacante de 23 años suma cinco goles en sus cuatro últimos partidos, y se ha convertido en un excelente socio de Antoine Griezmann en el ataque rojiblanco. Los cinco goles de Carrasco fueron en partidos ante Bayern Múnich y Rostov por la Liga de Campeones, y un triplete frente al Granada por la liga española. La temporada pasada marcó cinco veces, incluyendo uno en la final de la Champions, en su primera temporada con el Atlético tras llegar del Mónaco. "Se trata de un jugador muy joven, pero con una enorme personalidad, capaz de tirar del equipo cuando éste lo necesita", dijo el director deportivo del equipo, José Caminero. "Su velocidad y regate nos dan muchas alternativas en ataque". El contrato anterior de Carrasco expiraba en 2020.

http://www.emtempo.com.br/santa-catarina-e-atingida-por-tsunami-e-temporal-deixa-uma-crianca-morta/ | Uma menina de 7 anos morreu ontem (16) em decorrência dos fortes ventos registrados na região sul de Santa Catarina, A Defesa Civil do município de Tubarão confirmou a informação na noite de domingo. A menina estava com o pai em um carro que foi atingido por duas árvores que tombaram sobre o veículo. O homem não sofreu ferimentos graves, mas foi internado em estado de choque. De acordo com informações da Defesa Civil, os ventos aingiram 97km/h na tarde de ontem, segundo medições feitas no município de Araranguá. Milhares de casa foram destelhadas pelas rajadas. Cerca de 140 mil unidades consumidoras de energia elétrica ficaram sem luz nos 20 municípios da região, informou a Centrais Elétricas de Santa Catarina (Celesc). A maior parte da região sul catarinense e do município de Criciúma já teve o fornecimento de energia elétrica normalizado, segundo a Celesc, embora mais de 80 mil unidades continuem sem luz no município de Tubarão. Na praia de Balneário Rincão, dezenas de veículos que estavam estacionados perto do mar ficaram submersos após serem atingidos por uma onda gigante, posteriormente classificada pelo serviço de monitoramento e alerta da Defesa Civil catarinense como um fenômeno cientificamente chamado de “tsunami meteorológico”. O temporal persiste nesta segunda-feira, com um alto número de raios e ventos de até 90 km/h, deixando toda a região em estado de alerta. O mau tempo continuará pelo menos até quarta-feira (19), de acordo com o Centro de Informações de Recursos Ambientais e de Hidrometeorologia de Santa Catarina. Felipe Pontes

http://www.krone.at/fussball/und-jetzt-muss-rapid-diesen-bueskens-raushauen-krise-in-gruen-weiss-story-534640?utm_source=krone.at&utm_medium=RSS-Feed&utm_campaign=Sport | Vor ziemlich genau einem Monat, am 18. September, hat Rapid gegen Mattersburg den letzten Sieg in der Bundesliga gefeiert. Davor blieb man - so wie jetzt - in der Liga fast vier Wochen, seit der vierten Runden, ohne Sieg. Das jüngste 1:1 daheim gegen Altach (siehe Video oben) war so etwas wie der bisherige Höhepunkt der Seuchenspiele. Da bekommt die Phrase "Grüne Hölle" eine völlig neue Bedeutung. Und jetzt gehört der neue Coach Mike Büskens natürlich unbedingt gefeuert... oder doch nicht? Es sind nicht gerade wenige Rapid- Fans, die den Deutschen mittlerweile wieder lieber in seiner Heimat als in Hütteldorf sehen würden. Die Kommentare unter unseren Storys, auf unserer Facebook- Page - da ist zum Teil mächtig viel Hass in die Postings gepackt. Und, dass Rapid- Fans beim Klub enorm viel zu melden haben, ist ja auch kein Geheimnis. Bei einem Telefonat mit Büskens- Vorgänger Zoran Barisic wird einem relativ viel klar. "Zoki", ganz Gentleman, will zur aktuellen Situation bei Rapid nichts sagen: "Es wäre respektlos - und außerdem ist es nicht mehr mein Problem." Aber in einem seiner Nachsätze sagt er dann doch: "Bauchentscheidungen sind nicht immer die richtigen, vor allem im Profi- Geschäft." Da spricht er wohl nicht nur von seiner eigenen Erfahrung bei Rapid, sondern doch ein bisserl von der derzeitigen Lage. "Jeder will seinen Job so gut wie möglich machen", bleibt er kryptisch. Zoran selbst ist derzeit noch in der Erholungsphase: "Ich verbringe viel Zeit mit der Familie und mit Freunden und auf Fußball- Plätzen, auch in unteren Ligen." Das richtige Gesamtpaket würde ihn aber dann doch wieder reizen: "Einige Themen sind schon auf dem Tisch gewesen, aber es muss wirklich alles passen." Zurück zu Büskens: Ihn jetzt gleich wieder rauszuschmeißen, würde wohl einige Fans beruhigen, aber garantiert keine Lösung bringen. Denn Rapid kämpft sportlich mit ähnlichen Problemen wie in Zeiten der Barisic- Entlassung. Obwohl man aufgerüstet hat, jetzt ein stärkerer Kader zur Verfügung steht als damals. Man kann über eine endgültige "Emanzipierung" von Steffen Hofmann schwafeln, oder hinterfragen, warum ein Deni Alar bei Sturm so aufblüht und sich in Wien nicht entfalten konnte. Nur: Es wird nichts nützen. Ein neuer Trainer braucht Zeit, egal, bei welchem Team. Dass Büskens zu Beginn mehr Spiele gewann als verlor - und es jetzt umgekehrt läuft - mag Zufall oder Glück sein, aber bewerten sollte man ihn erst in einigen Monaten. Dem Deutschen fällt jetzt natürlich auch einiges auf den Kopf. Wie etwa seine Überheblichkeit bei Pressekonferenz (siehe Video unten) - oder diverse Aussagen in Medien. Aber er hat sich dennoch seine Zeit verdient, aus dieser Mannschaft ein Team zu formen.

http://www.hartlepoolmail.co.uk/sport/football/hartlepool-united/five-talking-points-for-hartlepool-united-boss-craig-hignett-1-8197611 | As can so often happen in football, having put in the hard yards against the top sides in the division, Hartlepool United came unstuck against third-bottom Leyton Orient. Next weekend Barnet, who are now just three places and one point worse off, are the hosts as Pools go in search of just their fourth win of the season. But what did we learn from the Orient loss? And what things need addressed by Craig Hignett ahead of the long trip down to The Hive? Here we take a look at five issues facing the Pools’ boss, following the club’s disappointing home loss to the O’s. Mentality change Sadly this is not something that can happen over night. There have been signs this is a problem, even when Pools have managed to scrape results in recent weeks. Sometimes when something goes against them in a game, they threaten to capitulate. And that is exactly what they did on Saturday. When Trevor Carson made an uncharacteristic error and Orient got back in it, everything went pear-shaped. To be fair to the players, when Nicky Featherstone was sent off v Luton earlier this season they held together, but this is an isolated incident. And speaking to Hignett post-match he knows he has a fight on his hands to turn around a dressing-room which tends to revert back into its shell when the going gets tough. Get players back Improving Pools’ backline is something at the very top of the to do list for Hignett this week. The problem is two-fold, though. Firstly he needs to work out whether the personnel he has in the positions at present, are the best men to do the job. The answer is probably no. While it felt like Liam Donnelly would add stability to the back four slotting in to the centre, it did not. In fact, Pools looked even more out of sorts. A switch to the right, with Jordan Richards dropping out, could be a solution, but that depends very much on whether Hignett can get one, or either, of Matthew Bates or Rob Jones back. What happened at the weekend would not occur with either of those two in there. By hook or by crook Hignett needs one, or both, back in contention for the trip to North London. Concentration The second part of the problem is that the likes of Toto Nsiala, Donnelly, Richards and Jake Carroll need to switch on more. It is no good defending well for 89 minutes then conceding because you weren’t concentrating. At the weekend, Pools were lucky to defend well for an hour. Improve midfield balance For some reason or other things aren’t quite working in the centre of the park. Lewis Hawkins graft is tireless. Josh Laurent’s class is there for all to see. And Nicky Featherstone adds an experienced assurance further back. Collectively, though, on Saturday things didn’t quite work. It could be time for Michael Woods to step up his comeback v Barnet. Work out if Amond maybe needs support Hignett does not like 4-4-2. That is the top and bottom of the matter. He says it does not work in an attacking sense, or defensively. But on Saturday it looked like Amond, who was wasteful but lively, could have done with a bit of support. Instead, Hignett sacrificed him, despite Pools chasing the game from behind. With no injury revealed it appeared a strange decision at the time. It still does now. Two up top, with Billy Paynter, who must be pulling his hair out, could be a solution. | 2016-10-24 | Five talking points for Hartlepool United boss Craig Hignett | Hartlepool United | Liam Kennedy | Hartlepool Mail | http://res.cloudinary.com/jpress/image/fetch/w_300,f_auto,ar_3:2,c_fill/http://www.hartlepoolmail.co.uk/webimage/1.8197610.1477314873!/image/image.jpg | en | 0.975709 | http://www.hartlepoolmail.co.uk/sport/football/hartlepool-united/five-talking-points-for-hartlepool-united-boss-craig-hignett-1-8197611 | hartlepoolmail.co.uk | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161024145319-00007.warc.gz | 2016-10-24T15:00:31+00:00 |

http://www.metroweekly.com/2016/10/lambda-legal-asks-court-to-stop-schools-discriminatory-bathroom-policy/ | Features News Arts Life Community Nightlife Scene Featured Partners Gift Shop Lambda Legal has asked a federal court to halt an anti-transgender bathroom policy implemented by a suburban Pittsburgh school district. A motion was filed on behalf of three transgender students — Juliet Evancho, Elissa Ridenour, and A.S. — all of whom are seniors at Pine-Richland High School in Gibsonia, Pa. They wish to continue using the bathrooms that match their gender identities, as they had done, without incident, prior to Sept. 12 of this year when the new policy came into force. For years, the Pine-Richland School District had permitted transgender students to use facilities consistent with their gender identity. But in March, the superintendent sent an email to parents explaining that there were transgender children in the district, and that, consistent with the U.S. Department of Education’s interpretation of Title IX, transgender students were being allowed to access restrooms and other facilities consistent with their gender identity. Almost immediately, a group of parents, known as Students and Parents for Privacy — with the help of Alliance Defending Freedom — demanded that the school board rescind its longstanding policy. Under pressure from the conservative activists, the Pine-Richland School District passed a new policy banning Juliet, Elissa, and A.S. from their respective restrooms. The district said they would either have to use the bathroom of their biological sex at birth or a single-stall bathroom if they wished to use any facilities at school. Lawyers argue that the new policy is not only unconstitutional, but sends a message that transgender students are undeserving of the same privacy, respect or protections afforded to their cisgender peers. “For the past month, our clients Juliet, Elissa and A.S. have felt singled out and marginalized by the discriminatory restroom policy imposed by the school board. This isn’t the result of teachers or their fellow students, who overwhelmingly support them. It’s the result of a sudden, fear-based and unconstitutional policy change, in response to pressure from outside anti-LGBT groups and individuals,” Omar Gonzalez-Pagan, a staff attorney with Lambda Legal, said in a statement. “Senior year only happens once in your lifetime — these students can’t get this time back,” argued Gonzalez-Pagan. “The rule imposed on them by the school board is demeaning, degrading and unnecessary — not to mention against the law.” If the injunction is granted, the school district will be barred from enforcing the new policy, and the students will be allowed to use the bathrooms that match their gender identities while the lawsuit moves through the judicial system. “Everything was fine at school. I was accepted for who I am, before some parents decided to make a fuss,” Ridenour said in a statement. “We just need it to go back to the way it was, when there was no problem.” Metro Weekly's Emails are a great way to stay up-to-date with everything you want to know -- and more! | 2016-10-21 | Pittsburgh school’s anti-transgender bathroom policy challenged in court | Alliance Defending Freedom;bathrooms;Evancho v.

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-cigna-opioid-idUSKCN12L1WH | Docs lay out media recommendations for kids, teens (Reuters Health) - The quantity and quality of media children and teens consume should change with their age, according to new guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics. Health insurer Cigna Corp has discontinued its policy of requiring doctors to seek authorization before treating opioid addicts, as part of a fight against an epidemic of opioid abuse, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said on Friday. The policy change will apply nationally, said Schneiderman, who has been pushing for easier access to treatments for the estimated 2.2 million Americans who need treatment for abuse of heroin or prescription painkillers. Preauthorization requirements can lead to significant delays in treatment, and other health insurers are encouraged to follow Cigna's lead, Schneiderman said in a statement. Lawmakers around the country are seeking ways to stem the epidemic, which kills 78 Americans every day. Fewer than half of addicts are receiving help, according to the U.S. Centers for Human and Health Services. Cigna previously required doctors to submit a prior-approval form for medication-assisted treatment (MAT) requests, answering questions about the patient's current treatment and medical history. This was done to minimize the risk of illicit redistribution of drugs, but opponents argue that this approach has left the healthcare system unable to cope with the rising number of addicts.

http://www.thenewstribune.com/news/politics-government/article109622412.html | Pneumonia seems to be a presidential campaign thing. First, Hillary Clinton came down with the illness in September. This week, it was Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein’s turn. Stein was released from an Austin, Texas, hospital Thursday afternoon after a two-day stay for treatment of pneumonia, her campaign said Friday. Her campaign said she suffered an asthma flare up recently then developed a fever earlier this week. She was taken to St. David’s South Austin Medical Center where she was diagnosed with pneumonia and admitted. The hospitalization, however, didn’t stop Stein from livestreaming and tweeting responses to Wednesday night’s debate between Clinton and Donald Trump. "Emerging from two days of fabulous hospital care, I feel profoundly fortunate, and am more determined than ever to fight for health care as a human right for all Americans through an improved Medicare for All health insurance program," Stein said in a statement Friday. She’s scheduled to appear at a town hall Friday in Los Angeles. Last month, Clinton’s campaign revealed that she had pneumonia after she suddenly left a 9/11 anniversary in New York and had to be helped into a waiting vehicle, an episode further fuel theories by Clinton foes about her health. Clinton took three days off from campaigning last month, conceding that she mistakenly thought that she could "power through" pneumonia. | 2016-10-21 | Green Party’s Jill Stein released from hospital after pneumonia bout | stamina, pneumonia, health, third party, Hillary Clinton health, Jill Stein, Green Party | William Douglas wdouglas com | Thenewstribune | http://pics.mcclatchyinteractive.com/news/politics-government/6ltpsz/picture109622407/ALTERNATES/LANDSCAPE_1140/AP_16281329256840 | en | 0.979043 | http://www.thenewstribune.com/news/politics-government/article109622412.html | thenewstribune.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161021145316-00004.warc.gz | 2016-10-21T15:31:24+00:00 |

Doch jetzt haben sich SPÖ und ÖVP auf ein umfassendes Autonomiepaket für die Schulen geeinigt. Die Direktoren bekommen künftig mehr Spielraum, alte Strukturen werden endlich aufgelöst. Zahlreiche wichtige Punkte sind aber immer noch offen, etwa die Verteilung der bereits beschlossenen 750 Millionen Euro für den Ausbau der ganztägigen Schule. Kommentar von Doris Vettermann: Jetzt nur nicht einknicken
Allzu oft war bei angekündigten Reformen schon die Rede von einem grandiosen Weg in eine neue Zukunft, von einem echten Quantensprung, ja von einer regelrechten Sensation. All das ist das Autonomiepaket nicht. Es ist gut und notwendig - aber vor allem ist es längst überfällig. Die alten, verkrusteten Schulstrukturen gehören bereits seit Jahren aufgeweicht, es sollte längst selbstverständlich sein, dass die Schulglocke nicht starr um acht Uhr läutet und dann jeweils 50 Minuten gelernt wird - ganz egal, wie der Unterricht gerade aussieht oder ob das überhaupt ins Konzept passt. Und - halleluja - endlich muss der Direktor nicht mehr jedem Lehrer- Vollkoffer (ja, auch die gibt es, neben den vielen guten und äußerst engagierten Pädagogen) einen Job geben, nur weil dieser lange genug darauf gewartet hat und irgendwann listenmäßig einfach an der Reihe ist. Das Autonomiepaket könnte der Anfang für weitere notwendige Schritte in der Bildungspolitik sein. Gäbe es da nicht noch eine Hürde, an der sich schon so manche Vorgängerin von Unterrichtsministerin Sonja Hammerschmid die Zähne ausgebissen hat: die prinzipiell zu allem Nein sagende Lehrergewerkschaft. Claudia Schmied musste - nach heftigen Protesten der Pädagogen gegen die Forderung nach zwei Stunden mehr in der Klasse - klein beigeben. Auch weil sie keinen Rückhalt in der Regierung hatte und von der eigenen Partei im Regen stehen gelassen wurde. Die jetzige Regierung darf nicht wieder einknicken und die Betonierer gewinnen lassen.

http://www.firmenpresse.de/pressinfo1413893/variables-einkommen-im-vertrieb-vergessen-sie-das-sahnehaeubchen-experten-interview.html | Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen Vergütungsexperte und Buchautor Dr. Heinz-Peter Kieser beantwortet im Experten-Interview die wichtigsten Fragen zur Höhe des variablen Einkommensanteils im Vertrieb. (firmenpresse) - Anlässlich einer Buchvorstellung gab der Autor und Vergütungsexperte Heinz-Peter Kieser jetzt dem Beraterkollegen André Schneider Antworten auf die wichtigsten Fragen zur Höhe des variablen Einkommensanteils im Vertrieb. Schneider:Herr Dr. Kieser, war es bisher nicht eher üblich, dass Unternehmen bei der Gestaltung ihrer variablen Vergütung im Vertrieb große Freiheiten hatten bei der Ausgestaltung des variablen Einkommensanteils? Manche Vertriebsmitarbeiter werden offenbar mit relativ niedrigen variablen Einkommensanteilen vergütet, andere, z.B. Verkäufer im Automobil-Bereich, mit sehr hohen variablen Anteilen. Welcher variable Einkommensanteil ist nun für eine wirkungsvolle variable Vergütung im Vertrieb richtig?Dr. Kieser:Vorwegschicken möchte ich an dieser Stelle, dass es den allgemein richtigen oder gültigen variablen Anteil so strikt nicht gibt. Es gibt hier aber ein paar grundsätzliche Zusammenhänge, die ich Ihnen gleich gerne erläutern werde. Sie werden im Einzelfall immer noch wieder durch markt-, branchen- oder unternehmensbezogene Besonderheiten abgeschwächt oder verstärkt.Ich erlebe in meiner Beratungspraxis sehr häufig, dass der variable Einkommensanteil des Mitarbeiters nicht passt. Da gibt es z.B. mitunter extrem niedrige variable Einkommensanteile von nur 5 oder 10% vom Gesamteinkommen. Dennoch erhoffen sich die Unternehmen davon spürbare Wirkungen. Die gibt es aber natürlich so nicht. Schneider:Ist es denn tatsächlich so, dass die Wirkung der variablen Vergütung im Vertrieb von der Höhe des variablen Einkommensanteils abhängt?Dr. Kieser:Wenn ein Verhalten der Mitarbeiter in Richtung Zielerreichung und Selbststeuerung erreicht werden soll, dann muss der variable Anteil am Einkommen des Mitarbeiters spürbar sein. Mit zu niedrigen variablen Einkommensanteilen, die eher den symbolischen Charakter des "Sahnehäubchens" besitzen, bewegt man in der variablen Vergütung im Vertrieb nicht wirklich etwas. Bedenken Sie: Üblicherweise werden Vertriebsmitarbeiter mit vier, fünf oder sechs Leistungskriterien vergütet. Teilt man einen sehr niedrigen variablen Anteil nun noch auf diese auf, dann wird schnell klar, dass das nicht besonders motivierend ist. Dann droht variables Einkommen im Vertrieb zum Sahnehäubchen ohne nennenswerte Wirkung zu werden. Schneider:Gibt es bzgl. des variablen Einkommensanteils auch Grenzen nach oben?Dr. Kieser:Ja, durchaus. Variable Einkommensanteile über 30% machen arbeitsrechtlich zunehmend massiv Probleme. Seitens der Arbeitsgerichte wird heute für den variablen Anteil eine Obergrenze von 25% bis max. 30% gesetzt. Das wird wie folgt begründet: Ein Mitarbeiter in einem festen Anstellungsverhältnis braucht Berechenbarkeit und Verlässlichkeit für sein Einkommen. Ein hoher variabler Einkommensanteil steht dem aus Sicht der Arbeitsgerichte entgegen.Schneider:Gibt es Sanktionen im Falle eines zu hohen variablen Einkommensanteils?Dr. Kieser:Eine direkte Bestrafung gibt es zwar nicht, doch sind unangenehme und teure Folgen möglich. Ein fest angestellter Außendienstmitarbeiter mit zu hohem variablem Einkommensanteil wird seitens der Arbeitsgerichte in der Nähe eines Handelsvertreters gesehen. Für Handelsvertreter gibt es den sogenannten Ausgleichsanspruch, der in § 89b HGB geregelt ist. Dort wird festgelegt, dass einem Handelsvertreter nochmals eine Jahresprovision zusteht, wenn er ausscheidet oder in den Ruhestand geht. Ermittelt wird der Betrag als Durchschnitt der letzten fünf Jahre. Wenn nun ein fest angestellter Reisender z.B. über einen variablen Anteil von 40 oder 50% oder mehr verfügt, steht ihm dieser Ausgleich in aller Regel ebenfalls zu.Schneider:Wird dann die variable Vergütung im Vertrieb aber nicht langweilig, wenn der variable Einkommensanteil gekürzt wird?Dr. Kieser:Ich erlebe bei meinen Kunden häufig, dass bei einer Absenkung vorher sehr hoher variabler Einkommensanteile die Befürchtung aufkommt, die Vergütung würde dadurch langweilig werden. Das ist aber dann nicht wirklich der Fall, wenn wie in der modernen variablen Vertriebsvergütung üblich mit Zielprämien gearbeitet wird. Diese Ziel- prämien haben einen sehr steilen Verlauf und sorgen dafür, dass die Sache spannend bleibt. Schneider:Von welchen Aspekten ist es nun abhängig, ob ein variabler Anteil im Rahmen der variablen Vergütung in Vertrieb eher bei 15% liegen soll oder eher bei 30%?Dr. Kieser:Sind die Leistungskriterien, die dem Mitarbeiter im Rahmen seiner Vertriebstätigkeit vergütet werden, von ihm gut beeinflussbar, dann spricht das eher für einen höheren Anteil von 25% oder sogar bis zu 30%. Ist das Geschäft aber sehr volatil und damit einhergehenden zufälligen Schwankungen unterworfen wie z.B. im Maschinenbau oder in der Software-Entwicklung, dann sollte der Anteil eher bei 15% oder 20% liegen.Schneider: Vielen Dank, Herr Dr. Kieser für diese aufschlussreichen Einblicke. Was empfehlen Sie unseren Zuhörern und Lesern, die das Thema weiter vertiefen möchten? Dr. Kieser:Für eine intensive Vertiefung ist natürlich mein oben schon erwähntes und weiter unten detailliert benanntes Buch mit vielen intensiv besprochenen Praxisfällen am besten geeignet. Darüberhinaus gibt es einen vertiefenden Beitrag mit Ratgebervideo auf unserer Webseite unterVergütungsmodell im Vertrieb - welcher variable Einkommensanteil passt?Und hier der Link zum Buch: Springer Gabler ISBN 978-3-658-07143-1 Weitere Infos zur Pressemeldung:http://www.ub-kieser.de Die Vergütungsberatung Dr. Finkenrath Dr. Kieser + Partner unterstützt Unternehmen bei der Einführung und Verbesserung von variablen und leistungsorientierten Vergütungssystemen und zählt in diesem Bereich zu den führenden deutschen Unternehmensberatungen.

Even this year, with their strongest team in recent memory. But , the world's first , accurately predicted the Cubs to win their first pennant since 1945. Not only that, UNU also correctly picked the Cubs' opponent, the Cleveland Indians. Over the All-Star break, the Boston Globe to predict which teams would make the MLB playoffs. UNU predicted 9 of 10 playoff teams correctly, just barely missing a perfect 10/10, when the St. Louis Cardinals failed to qualify by just one game. The Artificial Swarm Intelligence picked the Cubs and Indians to make it through the LDS and LCS rounds to the World Series. UNU also predicts the Cubs will win the Fall Classic. That of course hasn't happened in 108 years. UNU made headlines earlier this year after being challenged by major publications to make high profile predictions. Newsweek challenged UNU to predict the 2016 Academy Awards. The Swarm Intelligence achieved 76% accuracy, out-performing the vast majority of movie experts, including Rolling Stone and the LA Times. UNU was then challenged by TechRepublic to predict the Kentucky Derby superfecta -- the first four horses in order. UNU made a perfect pick, turning a $20 bet into $11,700. UNU was challenged by CNET to predict the Stanley Cup. UNU not only predicted which teams would win, but outperformed the experts in predicting the number of games each series would go and even correctly identified most of the postseason award winners. "UNU never ceases to impress us with its insights and predictions," said Dr. Louis Rosenberg, CEO of Unanimous A.I. "While sometimes the recommendations are surprising, they have been prescient so many times, that we've learned not to question, even when 71-year-old curses are involved." Developed by Silicon Valley startup, , and based on years of scientific research on , UNU is a unique merger of software algorithms and real-time human input. Modeled after swarms in nature, UNU enables groups of online users to think together as a unified emergent intelligence -- a "brain of brains" that can express itself as a singular entity. Touted to as the world's first "hive mind," the UNU platform has had over 30,000 human participants in swarming sessions this year, together answering over 140,000 questions. Swarm Intelligence, the science behind UNU, goes back to the birds and the bees. In fact, it goes to all creatures that amplify their group intelligence by forming flocks, schools, colonies, herds, and swarms. Across countless species, nature show us that social groups -- when working together as a unified dynamic system -- can outperform the majority of individual members when solving problems and making decisions, proving the old adage: many minds are better than one. In 2014, researchers at Unanimous A.I. first discovered that people can form online swarms that amplify intelligence just like natural swarms. So Unanimous built the UNU platform to bring that experience to everyone. Users can login for free, join an existing swarm, or form their own swarm on any topic. From sports and politics, to movies and music, online groups can form their own emergent intelligence and ask it questions about anything. For those interested in tapping into a swarm, visit: . Unanimous A.I. develops technologies for Artificial Swarm Intelligence, unlocking the hidden brainpower inherent in groups of all sizes, while fostering collaboration and community. Unlike traditional A.I., which aims to replicate intelligence with bits and bytes, Unanimous' technologies keeps people in the loop, amplifying human intelligence rather than replacing it.

http://www.heraldonline.com/news/state/south-carolina/article108684102.html | Retirement is still a few months away for Byrnes High School biology teacher Teresa Schiltz, but she’s looking forward to the day when she can travel to Europe after a rewarding career. Like thousands of other teachers, Schiltz, 56, has paid into and earned a pension over the years — a nest egg for retirement, and modest compensation for turning down a more lucrative career in private industry when she was younger. “I look at my pension as the reward in the end for giving my life to education for the lesser salary I received,” she said. But like many of the 321,000 retirees and active participants in South Carolina’s retirement system, Schiltz is concerned about reports that the system has a $21.3 billion debt that is expected to reach $23 billion soon. Experts say workers are likely to see more taken out of their paychecks to shore up the struggling system, and employers will likely be asked to increase their contributions to the system, too. And, some state employee groups say, that will hurt recruitment and retention for critical state jobs such as teaching and law enforcement. “The state has been aware of this long-term underfunding (of the pension system) but has chosen to ignore it and to continue to create billions of dollars of debt that must be paid by the taxpayers and public employees,” said state Treasurer Curtis Loftis. “This debt is a hidden tax.” How we got here Loftis said poor investment choices and underestimating the number of retirees who are living longer “have left the retirement system in an underfunded, debt-laden position.” Up until 17 years ago, the pension system was nearly debt-free. When it was set up in 1945, the state’s Retirement Systems Investment Portfolio invested only in domestic fixed income. That changed in 1997, when voters approved a referendum allowing pension funds to be invested in equities, or stocks. In 2005, the S.C. Retirement System Investment Commission was established. Up to 70 percent of the plan was allowed to be put into equities and stocks. Then in 2008, the market crashed, delivering a huge blow to pension systems nationwide. Still reeling from the recession four years later, the Legislature lowered the expected return on investment from 8 percent to 7.5 percent, and lawmakers limited cost-of-living increases for retirees. Meanwhile, workers and employers continued to contribute more funds. Yet the deficit kept growing, to today’s estimated $21.3 billion. More retirees are now collecting benefits than are paying in. In 2000 there was one retiree for every three active members. Today there is one retiree for every 1.4 active members. “Money is paid out faster and the ballooning net pension debt of $21.3 reflects that drawdown,” Loftis said. The plan once topped $30 billion in assets, but ended fiscal year 2016 with only $28 billion, Loftis said. In a few weeks, $1.7 billion in losses from this fiscal year will be added to the debt, making it $23 billion, Loftis said. Loftis and other state officials blame the Retirement System Investment Commission, which makes all investment decisions. Returns are earning nowhere near the expected 7.5 percent. On top of that, hundreds of millions in hedge fund fees have been paid out. Giving more, getting less The state agency charged with overseeing the retirement system — the S.C. Public Employee Benefit Authority (PEBA) — states that everyone in the system will receive what they are owed, one way or another. “The system’s trust funds have the money to pay benefits that are now due, and there is a statutory and constitutional mandate to ensure that funding will be in place to pay future benefits as well,” said Peggy Boykin, executive director of PEBA. The revenue side has three components: Employees, employers and returns from investments. By law, when investments underperform, contribution rates for employees and employers are raised. If the funds overperform, then in theory contribution rates should decrease. That hasn’t happened yet, officials said. “The answer to this deficit is not on the backs of our state employees,” said Carlton Washington, executive director of the S.C. State Employees Association. In June, the State Fiscal Accountability Authority approved a 0.5 percent increase in employee and employer contributions. Employees now contribute 8.66 percent of their salaries, up from 6.5 percent five years ago and above the national median of 5.98 percent. There also are 10,000 fewer state employees today, even though the state’s population has grown from 3.5 million in 1995 to 5 million today. “As pension contribution requirements go up, overall compensation goes down and morale suffers,” Washington said. “Many workers are leaving for private-sector jobs where they can make 15 to 20 percent more to support their families.” Counties and schools are also grappling with the rising costs. Nearly 8,000 local government and school district employees in Spartanburg County are contributing to the pension plan, and their employers are paying tens of millions of dollars into the system. Spartanburg County budgeted $7.86 million this year in pension contributions for some 1,500 full- and part-time government employees. “State pensions used to be an incentive for government workers — a generous retirement to make up for paychecks that were often less than in the private sector,” said Spartanburg County Councilman Justin Bradley. “Instead, our county and state employees are getting more and more taken out of their paychecks in exchange for diminishing returns in the pension funds.” Retirees now receive an average income of $19,000 a year and receive only a 1 percent cost of living increase each year. That rate was reduced from 2 percent a few years ago, and some lawmakers are thinking of cutting it to zero, Washington said. What lies ahead Aware of the problem, the state Legislature this year created the Joint Committee on Pension Systems Review, tasked with identifying the cause and proposing a solution. State Sen. Kevin Bryant, R-Anderson, a member of the pension panel, said solving the problem is as important as fixing the state’s crumbling roads and bridges. He called the pension crisis “the state’s biggest problem of the decade.” The agency in charge of investments is telling lawmakers that it is committed to improving the returns. Michael Hitchcock, director of the Retirement System Investment Commission, said “the RSIC has owned its partial responsibility for the unfunded liability deficit.” “Over the period of time we have underperformed our peers, that’s something we’ve worked on over the past year to rectify and improve upon that rate of return,” he said in August. Washington said one way to eliminate the multibillion-dollar deficit would be to eliminate tax exemptions that now exist for certain businesses. “Last year we took in $2.4 billion in sales tax, but we exempted $3 billion,” Washington said. “If we remove that exemption for six years” then the deficit is eliminated, he said. “The bottom line is the General Assembly and State Fiscal Accountability Authority need to come to the table with the same attitude they’ve come to the table with the farmers and road system,” Washington said. “As leaders of this state, they need to act responsibly. This whole notion of asking employees to pay more is absolutely not responsible.” With so much uncertainty surrounding the pension plan’s future, some state employees are opting to go with an alternative plan the state began offering in 2012. The State Optional Retirement Program (State ORP) is like a 401(k). The employee still has to contribute 8.66 percent, but can select one of four vendors. Employees also can control how their funds are allocated. State Comptroller General Richard Eckstrom said the ORP, like a 401(k), provides employees with greater returns in a strong market, or greater losses in a down one. The plan also can be carried with an employee to another job or rolled over into another plan — a plus for those who don’t intend to remain state employees for their entire career. “It’s 100 percent vested,” Eckstrom said. On the downside, the ORP is not guaranteed by the state, as the pension plan is. From the state’s perspective, the two options are nearly a wash, according to Eckstrom. If more workers opt out of the state plan in favor of the ORP, the drop in revenue for the state plan eventually will even out because fewer employees will be drawing on the funds, he said. Eckstrom said the Legislature is on the right track by creating the special pension panel. “The bad news is we do have a massive problem, there’s just no way around it,” Eckstrom said. “If there’s any benefit of having a massive problem, it’s given us the good news that for the first time the General Assembly is accepting this is a problem. They just can’t ignore it anymore.” Rising contributions State employee contributions to plan/each paycheck 2010-11: 6 percent 2011-12: 6.5 percent 2012-13: 7 percent 2013-14: 7.5 percent 2014-15: 8 percent 2015-16: 8.16 percent 2016-17: 8.66 percent Source: S.C.

http://www.bzbasel.ch/schweiz/atomausstiegsinitiative-buergerliche-warnen-vor-versorgungsluecken-und-sicherheitsrisiken-130651151 | Vertreter von SVP, CVP, FDP und BDP warnten am Dienstag vor den Medien in Bern vor der "extremen Ausstiegsinitiative", über die am 27. November abgestimmt wird. Es handle sich um eine "Mogelpackung", sagte CVP-Nationalrat Stefan Müller-Altermatt (SO). Bei einer Annahme müssten drei Atomkraftwerke schon 2017 vom Netz genommen werden. Es sei jedoch völlig unmöglich, eine hoch komplexe AKW-Stilllegung innerhalb eines Jahres zu bewerkstelligen. Zudem stellten fixe Laufzeiten die Sicherheit in Frage, ist Müller-Altermatt überzeugt. Anders als heute würden AKW-Betreiber auf zusätzliche Investitionen verzichten, weil sie diese nicht mehr amortisieren könnten, sagte er. Von einem geordneten Ausstieg könne daher keine Rede sein, vielmehr drohe ein chaotischer Ausstieg aus der Atomenergie. Grosse Lücke Hinzu kommt laut den Gegnern der Initiative eine drohende Versorgungslücke. Wenn 2029 das letzte AKW abgeschaltet würde, fehlten 22 Terawattstunden Energie. Das ist mehr als ein Drittel des heutigen Stromverbrauchs. Diese Lücke könne mit dem Import von Strom geschlossen werden oder mit dem Bau neuer Gaskraftwerke, erklärte der Berner BDP-Ständerat Werner Luginbühl. Die Initianten sind überzeugt, dass die Ausfälle in der Stromproduktion mit einheimischem und importiertem Strom aus Wasser, Sonne, Wind und Biomasse klimafreundlich ersetzt werden könnten. Nach Ansicht von Luginbühl würde die Einfuhr von ausländischem Strom jedoch dazu führen, dass künftig mehr Kohlestrom aus Deutschland und Atomstrom aus Frankreich aus Schweizer Steckdosen fliessen würde. Kohle wie auch Gas würden die CO2-Bilanz der Schweiz verschlechtern. Und auf die Sicherheit französischer AKW habe die Schweiz kaum Einfluss. "Die Initiative würde das Problem nur ins Ausland abschieben", sagte Luginbühl. Er erinnerte auch daran, dass derzeit die Transformatoren fehlten, um Strom von ausländischen 380-Kilovolt-Netzen auf Schweizer 220-Kilovolt-Netze umzuwandeln. Ohne diese sei importierter Strom unbrauchbar. Der Berner SVP-Nationalrat Albert Rösti warnte seinerseits vor Milliardenforderungen der AKW-Betreiber. Auch der Bundesrat sei der Ansicht, dass die Begrenzung der Laufzeit einen Eingriff in die Eigentumsgarantie darstelle und eine Entschädigungspflicht begründe. Die AKW-Betreiber hätten insgesamt rund 6,3 Milliarden Franken investiert, die nicht mehr amortisiert werden könnten. Allein die Axpo beziffere den wirtschaftlichen Schaden bei Annahme der Initiative aus 1,5 Milliarden bis 2 Milliarden Franken, sagte Rösti. Gemäss den Gegnern gingen die Entschädigungszahlungen zu Lasten der Steuerzahler. Diese wären als Stromkonsumenten wegen der höheren Strompreise doppelt bestraft. Uneinig über Energiestrategie Die Gegner der Initiative wollen die Schweizer AKW daher so lange am Netz lassen, wie sie sicher sind. Dieses Vorgehen ist auch im ersten Massnahmenpaket der Energiestrategie 2050 verankert, welches das Parlament in der Herbstsession verabschiedet hat. Über diese Vorlage herrscht unter den Gegnern der Atomausstiegs-Initiative jedoch keine Einigkeit: Während CVP und BDP die Energiestrategie grundsätzlich unterstützen und die FDP schwankt, sammelt die SVP Unterschriften für ein Referendum. Auf die Beurteilung der Initiative habe dies jedoch keinen Einfluss, sagte Müller-Altermatt. Diese sei auf jeden Fall schlecht. Auch der Bundesrat hat sich gegen die Volksinitiative "Für den geordneten Ausstieg aus der Atomenergie" ausgesprochen. Auf der Seite der Grünen kämpfen SP, die Grünliberalen und die EVP sowie Umweltorganisationen und -verbände für die Atomausstiegsinitiative. | 2016-10-18 | Atomausstiegsinitiative: Bürgerliche warnen vor Versorgungslücken und Sicherheitsrisiken | atomausstieg, atomkraftwerke, bz basel, energiewende | Schweiz | Az | Bz Basel | http://static.a-z.ch/__ip/yivme4YWrA0n77m41GKL6cgAnlM/7f3a537d99db2f42caebf50d4c155a6ef0211b2b/remote.adjust.rotate=0&remote.size.w=1024&remote.size.h=768&local.crop.h=575&local.crop.w=1024&local.crop.x=0&local.crop.y=36&r=1,teaser-medium/die-atomausstiegsinitiative-der-gruenen-fordert-eine-schrittweise-abschaltung-der-schweizer-akw--leibstadt-ginge-2029-als-letztes-atomkraftwerk-vom-netz--archivbild | de | 0.995585 | http://www.bzbasel.ch/schweiz/atomausstiegsinitiative-buergerliche-warnen-vor-versorgungsluecken-und-sicherheitsrisiken-130651151 | bzbasel.ch | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161018145313-00001.warc.gz | 2016-10-18T15:51:21+00:00 |
http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/lower-leagues/linlithgow-rose/scottish-cup-graham-weir-will-play-through-pain-for-lithgae-1-4264019 | Linlithgow Rose’s Graham Weir is prepared to play through the pain barrier to help spur the Prestonfield club on another memorable William Hill Scottish Cup run. Weir has been missing the last few weeks with a niggling ankle injury and was only able to take part in light training for the first time on Monday night. With Rose’s squad severely depleted by injuries, Weir could be handed a starting berth against former club Stirling Albion tomorrow. It’s a game he’s determined to play in even if he’s not 100 per cent fit after joining Linlithgow from the Binos last summer. “I did a wee bit of training on Monday, so hopefully all well I’ll have a chance of playing tomorrow,” said the former Hearts striker. “You always want to play in the big games and coming up against your old team especially. “I was injured towards the end of my time there. It was frustrating because the new manager went down a different route.” Weir believes Rose showed what they are capable of last season as they became the first Junior club to reach the fifth round, beating League Two Forfar on the way. Tomorrow’s League Two opponents Stirling are in a similar predicament to Forfar when they faced Rose last season, battling it out at the bottom end of the table. Weir continued: “We’re good enough to give anyone a game – we showed that last season against Forfar and teams like that. Everyone is looking forward to it, and hopefully we can put in a good performance. We’ve not been playing great of late, but it’s a cup game and anything can happen. “If we can get through this and get boys back fit we should do alright. The travelling side of it was horrendous last season but it was a fantastic cup run for the club, which we want to repeat again.” Knocking out Stirling would do Linlithgow caretaker boss Todd Lumsden no harm as he bids to take the reins on a permanent basis after former boss David McGlynn resigned earlier this month. He’s fully aware of the enormity of the task facing his side, especially given the resources at his disposal with several first-team regulars set to miss out, but he’s refusing to use their injury problems as an excuse and insists the XI he picks will give it all they’ve got to produce a cup shock. “We’re down to the bare bones, so to speak. It’s not ideal but the players have been magnificent, taking an opportunity to stake a claim,” said former Arbroath boss Lumsden. “At the moment, we’re really struggling for numbers on the bench to make changes. “The team is picking itself because of who is fit. “It’s a challenge but we’ve just got to get on with it. We’ve won the last few games so the boys should be gaining more confidence. “There’s a few players who haven’t played for a few weeks who might have a chance but throwing players back in right from the start is a risk in itself. “It’s up against us, but it’s a cup game. Teams come to Linlithgow and raise their game when it’s a cup game, like Thornton Hibs last week, so we’ll be asking the players to do the same. It doesn’t mater what eleven we put out on the pitch, we’re not going to use a depleted squad as an excuse. “There’s no reason with the quality that we’ve got in the team that we couldn’t go and nick a goal. It’s then just how hard we work to stop them creating things and scoring goals themselves.” With a host of Rose players having senior clubs on their CV, coming up against a League Two outfit is familiar ground for most in the Prestonfield ranks. Lumsden has called on his players to remember their experience of playing in the SPFL and use that as inspiration to rise to the occasion and produce their best. He added: “There’s a lot of players who have played at senior level and they need to remember what it’s like to play against senior players and raise their game. Being the underdogs we need to raise our game. “All we can do is try and get ourselves in the hat for the next round, whether that be by getting a replay or beating them, then fantastic.” | 2016-10-21 | Scottish Cup: Graham Weir will play through pain for Lithgae | Linlithgow Rose | SCOTT THOMSON | Edinburgh Evening News | http://res.cloudinary.com/jpress/image/fetch/w_300,f_auto,ar_3:2,c_fill/http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/webimage/1.4264018.1477061429!/image/image.jpg | en | 0.978257 | http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/lower-leagues/linlithgow-rose/scottish-cup-graham-weir-will-play-through-pain-for-lithgae-1-4264019 | edinburghnews.scotsman.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161021145316-00004.warc.gz | 2016-10-21T15:31:23+00:00 |

Associated Press
NEW YORK: It’s not Trump Tower. But Donald Trump’s first boyhood home is a charming two-story Tudor-style home in a park-like enclave of New York City. Now, the Jamaica Estates house is going on the auction block Wednesday evening with an opening bid of $849,000. Trump lived in the home — built in 1940 by his developer father — until he was 4 years old, when the family moved to another house in the same community, also built by his dad. A slate path leads up to the brick-and-stucco home that has five bedrooms, 4½ baths, an enclosed rear porch and a detached, 2-car garage. Today, the 3,600-square-foot house also features a finished basement with a second kitchen. Jamaica Estates, located in Queens — the city’s most diverse borough — is an upper middle class enclave of one-family Tudor, Victorian and Colonial style homes. It was developed at the turn of the 20th century as an affluent community with hilly and winding streets with names like Aberdeen and Avon that boasted easy access to midtown Manhattan. It was nearly all-white in Trump’s boyhood days, but today it’s a community that includes “all backgrounds and ethnicities,” said Misha Haghani, co-founder of Paramount Realty, which is coordinating the auction with the listing broker, Leffey Real Estate. The billionaire Republican presidential nominee once recalled in an interview that “parts of Queens were rough” but Jamaica Estates offered “an oasis.” An email request for comment from the Trump Organization was not immediately returned. Interested bidders at the auction, being held at the Roosevelt Hotel in Manhattan, must arrive with a bank or certified check in the amount of $90,000. Before the auction, they’ll have to purchase due diligence information that includes the property’s survey and title report. Over the summer, the house was listed on the market for $1.6 million, and later reduced to $1.39 million. While there were some offers, the owners decided “to auction it and let buyers tell them what it’s worth,” said Haghani. “It allows them to control the timeline.” There is an auction reserve but it was not disclosed. In recent weeks there were about 40 houses on the market in Jamaica Estates with the medium price of $1.7 million, said Haghani. “It’s a perfect house but now it’s a little too big for me,” said the home’s owner, Isaac Kestenberg, who has lived in the house for eight years and is separating from his wife. “We didn’t change anything. It’s beautiful,” he said in an interview, noting the natural wood trim and carved fireplace. “It’s a beautiful neighborhood, nice, quiet, no crime, very manicured. It’s like living upstate but being in the city.” Kestenberg said he only learned several weeks after buying the house that the Trumps had occupied it for a time. When the house went on the market in the summer, Trump “did not come over to look at it,” he quipped. ——— | 2016-10-19 | Trump’s boyhood home headed to auction | trail mix, National | trail mix, National | Ula Ilnytzky | www.ohio.com | http://www.ohio.com/polopoly_fs/1.720438.1476884898!/image/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/landscape_440/trump-boyhood-home-auctionfaa71-00.jpg | en | 0.972793 | http://www.ohio.com/news/politics/national/trump-s-boyhood-home-headed-to-auction-1.720444?localLinksEnabled=false&cache=18961415304345%25252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252Fnews%2525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525 | ohio.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161019145314-00002.warc.gz | 2016-10-19T15:55:37+00:00 |

http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/the-pull-of-simplicity/article9246042.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | Kuchipudi dancer Anupama Kylash explains how she got hooked on to Vilasini Natyam. Anupama Kylash was learning from Kuchipudi scholar teacher Dr. Uma Roy for almost a decade and a half, after which she moved to Vilasini Natyam which has been resurrected, rejuvenated and recast by dancer and scholar Swapnasundari. A doctorate degree holder in dance, she has learnt from Swapnasundari all three aspects of Vilasini Natyam. Starting with the temple tradition which include rituals connected with worship in temples in accordance with the ‘Aagamas’, the court tradition which cover nritta and nritya presentations like swara pallavis, salaam daruvus, varnams, keertanas, padams and javalis unique to the Andhra Kalavantalus called ‘Meyzuvani’, which is a chamber presentation of the abhinaya. The dancer elaborates on a song in the sitting posture and theatrical presentations which generally represented Parijatams based on the story of Lord Krishna and Satyabhama for nine consecutive nights in nine Janardana temples in Andhra. At the Vysakhi festival, Anupama danced pieces from Vilasini Natyam to connoisseurs’ delight. Excerpts from a chat: Tell us how your interest in dance developed? I was always interested in dance and learnt Kuchipudi from Uma Roy for 15 years. NT Rama Rao had set up degree course in dance in the Andhra University. My guru suggested to my mother that I should take it up, because I was so curious to know all about it. So I did both my graduation and masters in dance from the Andhra University. Now, of course, the course has been discontinued because of lack of students. The inspiration to write a a book on the kritis of poet-saint Annamacharya. My grandfather V.G.Krishnamurthy was proficient in Hindustani music and attended night long musical soirees. From him and my mother, who was also a singer, I developed my musical taste. Since I was brought up in South India, I wanted to learn Carnatic music. I was fond of songs of Meera Bai. Everything put together formed my inclination for writing a book on Annamacharya. What aroused your interest in Vilasini Natyam? Sheer dexterity of the hastas and abhinaya attracted me to learn Vilasini Natyam. All along, I have been interested in abhinaya and here was a chance for me to do it. I like the simplicity of the steps. rThe central piece of Vilasini Natyam’s court dance is varnam. The Devadasis sang the swaras and did the abhinaya. Devadasis do not do sancharis in abhinaya. Rather, they create motifs and imageries and keep evolving the created imageries. It is a unique kind of abhinaya. How did Swapnasundrai chance upon Vilasini Natyam? Akka (Swapnasundari) went to perform at Elluru. She had the pride of being ‘the’ Kuchipudi dancer. After her performance, the organisers requested her to stay on for the performance of an actual Devadasi, who would do abhinaya. There was an old lady who was in the most ordinary clothes. Neither did she have looks to commend herself. She sat on the stage and emoted and sang. Akka said she had never seen that kind of abhinaya before. She said, ‘in one minute the whole strutting of mine came crashing on the floor. I lost my pride when I saw her’. Akka kept requesting her to be her teacher for almost a year or two, and finally she agreed. She was Madura Lakshmi Narayana of Manepalli village. With the help of her guru she was able to learn all the nuances of Vilasini Natyam from at least 15 or 16 Devadasis, who are no more. | 2016-10-20 | The pull of simplicity | Tapati Chowdhurie, Kuchipudi, Anupama Kylash, Vilasini Natyam ,arts, culture and entertainment, dance, arts, culture and entertainment;Tapati Chowdhurie;Kuchipudi;Anupama Kylash;Vilasini Natyam | Friday Review | Tapati Chowdhurie | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/03051/21DFRANUPAMA2_3051427c.jpg | en | 0.969767 | http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/the-pull-of-simplicity/article9246042.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:21+00:00 |

Jaishankar, Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar, and Finance Minister Arun Jaitley. He will first lead a delegation of 26 businesses to the Global Investors Summit being held in Madhya Pradesh at the weekend, and hold discussions with Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan. Mr. Chouhan visited Britain at the end of September in an effort to woo investors to the State. The who’s who to come The delegation is set to combine established U.K names such as Vodafone and Cambridge University Press, and Reckitt Benckiser as well as smaller businesses such as Cambridge-based software firm Cyan Connode. Mr. Sharma, who like Ms. May was a campaigner for the “remain” camp during the referendum, has become one of the key players in Britain’s evolving relationship with India. In fact he visited India on his first official foreign trip after taking up his new ministerial role in July. Mr. Sharma’s visit to New Delhi will help set the framework for Ms. May’s visit in November. That visit, during the UK-India TECH summit, will be one of the biggest tests of Britain’s hopes of forging non-EU alliances though issues such as proposals to toughen Britain’s visa regime and its stance on Kashmir may cast something of a shadow. Strengthening business The visit to Madhya Pradesh should also be seen in the context of British efforts to move its relationship with countries such as India away from development aid. “The U.K. has been a long-term supporter of the state, through aid and other partnerships, and it now has a vibrant economy,” said Sharma in a press statement on Thursday. “The Global Investors Summit will allow us to build and strengthen business links in thriving areas like tourism, rural development and a dynamic manufacturing and industrial sector.” | 2016-10-20 | UK’s Minister for Asia and the Pacific to visit Madhya Pradesh, Delhi | UKs Asian Minister, Alok Sharma, India visit,World, India, United Kingdom, diplomacy, international relations;UKs Asian Minister;Alok Sharma;India visit | International | Vidya Ram | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/template/1-0-1/gfx/oghindunew1.jpg | en | 0.960483 | http://www.thehindu.com/news/international/uks-minister-for-asia-and-the-pacific-to-visit-madhya-pradesh-delhi/article9246271.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:22+00:00 |
http://www.emtempo.com.br/na-presidencia-da-camara-maranhao-quer-votar-alteracao-na-lei-de-repatriacao/ | No comando da Câmara nesta semana, o vice-presidente da Casa, Waldir Maranhão (PP-MA), tem o desafio de tentar retomar o debate e votação do Projeto de Lei (PL) 2.617/15 que altera a Lei de Repatriação. Na semana passada, o presidente Rodrigo Maia (DEM-RJ) deu o assunto como encerrado depois que, mesmo após um acordo de governadores sobre o ponto que trata da distribuição da arrecadação, partidos de oposição obstruíram a votação. Maia disse que não “se desgastaria” mais com o assunto, mas deixou aberta a possibilidade de o presidente em exercício retomar o tema a partir de um novo acordo, que ainda não foi costurado apesar do esforço de alguns partidos da base aliada. Apesar disso, Maranhão aposta que o projeto de lei voltará à pauta. “Este é um tema relevante”, afirmou. Perguntado se é vontade do Legislativo votar a matéria, Maranhão afirmou que tem que ser “vontade da sociedade, a repatriação de algo que pode injetar recursos na economia”. A matéria é defendida pelo governo como forma de ampliar a adesão de contribuintes que têm dinheiro no exterior não declarado e querem regularizar sua situação. Estados e municípios também têm interesse no assunto já que querem aumentar a parcela de dinheiro a arrecadar com o pagamento de impostos e multas. Pela lei atual, para regularizar os recursos e obter anistia penal e tributária o contribuinte tem que, em troca, pagar 15% de multa e 15% de Imposto de Renda (IR) sobre o valor. Pauta
Maranhão também ficou com o encargo de instalar a comissão especial que vai discutir mudanças nas regras eleitorais. Câmara e Senado selaram um acordo para que cada uma das Casas trate de pontos específicos e que tudo seja previamente debatido para evitar que senadores derrubem o que deputados aprovarem e vice-versa. O Senado tratará de coligações partidárias e de cláusula de desempenho, que estabelecem percentual mínimo de votação para a legenda conquistar cadeiras no Congresso. A comissão da Câmara vai decidir sobre qual será o sistema eleitoral que deve vigorar. O relator do colegiado já está definido – deputado Vicente Cândido (PT-SP) –, mas ainda falta escolher o presidente, que deve ser anunciado esta semana para que os trabalhos comecem. Já no plenário, deputados voltam a se reunir hoje para discutir e tentar votar a Medida Provisória (MP) 737/16 que autoriza o ingresso de militares aposentados na Força Nacional. Maranhão acredita que vai conseguir concluir a matéria. Amanhã, Maranhão deve ter mais dificuldade em cumprir a pauta já que a previsão é votar as emendas ao projeto 4.567/16 que altera o regime de partilha do pré-sal. Carolina Gonçalves

Several Ohio newspapers, television and radio stations agreed in 2015 to place Ohio citizens ahead of the politicians in deciding what issues to emphasize in the election, using polling and public gatherings to understand what to cover and how to deliver. The Bliss Institute of Applied Politics at the University of Akron and Center for Opinion and Marketing Research are conducting the polling. The Jefferson Center, a nonprofit nonpartisan engagement organization from St. Paul, is facilitating the public sessions and ongoing research. The Akron Beacon Journal is coordinating the media participation. The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and Akron Community Foundation provided the funding. This poll is the only one of three that will reflect who is ahead in Ohio. Over the next several days, the news organizations will report on other matters explored in the in-depth survey. In all, 1,004 people were surveyed from Sept. 21 to Oct. 13 to achieve a margin of error of 3 percentage points. | 2016-10-18 | About the Your Vote Ohio project | State, National, Local, Akron, Local | State, National, Local, Akron, Local | System Administrator | www.ohio.com | http://www.ohio.com/img/akron/social_no_image.jpg | en | 0.945677 | http://www.ohio.com/news/politics/national/about-the-your-vote-ohio-project-1.720267?localLinksEnabled=false&cache=18961415304345%25252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252Fnews%2525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525 | ohio.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161019145314-00002.warc.gz | 2016-10-19T15:55:41+00:00 |
http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hibs/match-preview-dunfermline-v-hibs-team-news-1-4265030 | Neil Lennon’s Hibs side travel to East End Park on Saturday without midfielders Dylan McGeouch or Danny Handling. McGeouch is out with a hamstring problem, while Handling’s long-standing battle to regain fitness after a knee injury goes on. Marvin Bartley, however, will be available to Lennon after the red card he received against Raith Rovers last week was reduced to a yellow card. This is the second time this season the 30-year-old has had his punishment removed following an appeal, with the sending off he received against Ayr United in September also being rescinded. Defender Liam Fontaine could return to Lennon’s match squad for the first time since the Easter Road club’s 4-0 demolition of Morton at the end of August. The central defender has not played for the club due to injury since Dunfermline were beaten 2-1 at Easter Road in August. Pars boss manager Allan Johnston will be without winger Joe Cardle, who is still out with a knee knock. Summer signing John Herron is close to a return after an ankle injury, but Johnston suggested on Thursday that this match may come too soon for him. Nat Wedderburn, however, may return to the squad. Ex-Hibee Farid El Alagui is expected to start against his old club and has scored four goals in his last four games, and alongside strike partner Nicky Clark and midfielder Andy Geggan will likely present the most substantial threat to Ofir Marciano’s goal. The match is the first time the two clubs have faced each other in Fife on league business since January 2012, a game Hibs won 3-2 thanks to a brace from Leigh Griffiths. Hibs defeated the Pars earlier in the season at Easter Road, with Jason Cummings netting in a 2-1 triumph. | 2016-10-21 | Match preview: Dunfermline v Hibs team news | Hibernian | CONOR MATCHETT | Edinburgh Evening News | http://res.cloudinary.com/jpress/image/fetch/w_300,f_auto,ar_3:2,c_fill/http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/webimage/1.4265025.1477063475!/image/image.jpg | en | 0.978385 | http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hibs/match-preview-dunfermline-v-hibs-team-news-1-4265030 | edinburghnews.scotsman.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161021145316-00004.warc.gz | 2016-10-21T15:31:24+00:00 |

http://www.heraldonline.com/news/local/article108715727.html | A candlelight memorial was held Sunday to remind the Lancaster community that it’s time for a change after a recent spate of gun violence. Gathered on the steps of the historic Courthouse in Lancaster, friends and loved ones remembered Yusuf Abdus-Salaam, 32, who died of multiple gunshot wounds after a shooting last week. “It means a lot to this family for you to be here tonight and show your support,” said Judy Williams, with Mothers of Murdered Offspring, or MOMO, a group of survivors supporting mothers and families of murder victims. Williams said the night was not only for remembering Abdus-Salaam, but for sending a message. “Black lives do matter, but they have to matter to us first,” she said. “We can’t expect the police to do that or anybody else, it’s got to start with us. It’s more us killing us than anybody else.” Everyone in the crowd lifted candles and listened to a prayer led by Minister Altheresa Goode-Howard of the Master’s Ministry in Lancaster. Williams said Abdus-Salaam’s death should be a wake-up call. “You are not supposed to be the same person after this,” she said. “Yusuf’s life and death is supposed to change you. Please allow it to do what it is supposed to do it.” Abdus-Salaam, 32, of Downey Drive in Lancaster, was shot several times Tuesday evening. He was found outside a house on Hampton Road in Lancaster, police said. He later died. His first name was spelled Yusuf by the county coroner, but has been spelled Yusef in other records. He had been free on bond since June, records show, and is one of five men accused in the 2009 beating death of another man in retaliation. Records show he had convictions dating to 2002 for disorderly conduct, driving under suspension, check fraud and drugs. Another deadly shooting happened two days earlier, on Oct. 9. Devone Frazier, 30, died after he was found shot and lying in the road on the 900 block of 13th Street. Kenneth Jerome Hood Jr., 19, has been charged with murder in Frazier’s death. Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Doug Barfield has said the shootings are not believed to be random gunplay. Police have not linked the crimes, but the pair of killings both involve potential retaliation from other crimes, and victims and witnesses afraid to come forward that have links to the cases, records show. Abdus-Salaam’s sister Tina Thompson-Rivers said the night was an unfortunate representation of reality. “The reality of things is this is what happens when you live the street life,” she said. “I’m going to miss my brother. We had a bond that no one will ever understand.” Thompson-Rivers pushed those in attendance to come forward if they know anything about what happened the night her brother was killed. “I hope one day that the person responsible for this is caught,” she said. “I won’t rest.” Lancaster Mayor Pro Tempore Tamara Garris said it was yet another example of the battle the city continues to fight and encouraged anyone with information to come forward. “This is another sad day in our city; another life gone too soon,” she said. “This is a battle that we fight every day to work hard to bridge the gap between law enforcement officers and our citizens. We can’t have our citizens gunned down in the streets.” Garris said there are too many guns and drugs on the street and that it’s a battle everyone needs to be involved in. “We as black people need to fix this problem ourselves,” she said. “If we can’t get along, how do we expect other races to join in?” Lancaster Chief of Police Harlean Carter said she was grieving right along with Abdus-Salaam’s family. “Yusuf was one of my babies,” she said. She implored those at the memorial to channel their grief into ending the violence. “It makes no sense,” she said. “It’s not about African-Americans and it’s not about whites, it’s about the human condition and we all play a role in it. Let’s show our compassion, determination and God-given spirit.” Abdus-Salaam’s mother, Virginia Bridges, appealed for a change. “I’m angry,” she said. “This is the second time I’ve had to bury one of my children. We keep hollering about black lives matter, but when will they matter to us?” At the end of the memorial, eight balloons were released, seven to represent that Abdus-Salaam’s time on earth is complete, and an extra for new beginnings. | 2016-10-17 | ‘When will they matter to us?’: Lancaster recalls man who died in ‘street life’ | Amanda Harris Special | Heraldonline | http://www.heraldonline.com/news/local/d3k56l-yusuf-keyframe.jpeg/ALTERNATES/LANDSCAPE_1140/yusuf%20keyframe.jpeg | en | 0.976557 | http://www.heraldonline.com/news/local/article108715727.html | heraldonline.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161017145313-00000.warc.gz | 2016-10-17T15:39:19+00:00 |

http://www.thenewstribune.com/news/local/crime/article109606162.html | A man was killed in one of two collisions caused by drunken drivers on Interstate 5 near state Route 512 early Friday. One crash involved four vehicles; the other involved two. Both took place on southbound I-5 just south of state Route 512. A passenger involved in the first collision died. The suspected drunken driver from that crash was taken to the hospital and needed stiches, according to the State Patrol. Nobody was injured in the second collision, which occurred 100 feet away. The car struck by that drunken driver left the scene before troopers arrived. Two drivers were arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, trooper Todd Bartolac said.

http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/a-potent-display-of-art/article9246110.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | Swift and striking movements marked the depiction of five mythical weapons in “Divya Astra”. The choice of male dancers with just one female artiste was a consciously crafted one in keeping with the theme – "Divya Astra" (divine weapons), the first of the Divya trilogy staged at the India Habitat Centre. It is difficult to judge whether the theme enhanced the dances or the dancers enriched the motifs. Each was an asset to the character they took upon, viz. the five potent weapons of ancient times that had far-reaching disastrous consequences than the present day nukes. To top it, these weapons were vested with powerful code letters (mantra) that was the prerogative of very specially ordained, skilled persons to ensure they were used with discretion. The theme had a chronology of sorts; since Lord Brahma is the creator and since creation is the beginning, we had Himanshu Srivatsava dance the Brahmastra. He depicted the genesis of this weapon with swift, striking movements, commanding nritta and matching abhinaya that served in reinforcing the astounding annihilation of this super astra. The ‘srishti chakra’ refrain was embellished with varied abhinaya which was a pleasure to watch. The serpent hasta mudra as the dancer executed the jatis and was very impressive. The four Vedas originating from the four faces of the creator could have been shown turning towards the four directions rather than from a frontal position for greater clarity and variation. However, the Vedic slokas for each of the Vedas bestowed a dignity to the presentation. The Katha vachan mode was a quaint post-script that revealed the use of the Brahmastra during Treta Yug by Sri Ram. Himanshu emerged as a dancer who could mould himself to the role he undertakes be it in pure dance or in the expressive (abhinaya) aspect of dance. His postures, moves, use of stage space, costume stand as testimonials to his potential as a dancer of calibre. Vishnu being the protector, Sudarshana Chakra was naturally the second to follow Brahmastra. Mithun Shyam’s approach to choreography was at its creative best. Since the weapon was more in the form of a disc, it obviously moved in circular motion when released. The artist based his entire Bharatanatyam in spherical, wheeling movements – a cutting edge technique in a traditionally linear dance form-that vested a dimension on this piece, as if personifying and picturing the velocity and propelling of the chakra. The Chakravaka raga further enhanced the poetry that flowed along with the dance. Everything that the dancer undertook to interpret this weapon was artistically excellent, an evidence of his grip and involvement with his medium. The chanting of Sudashana Shatkam was an appropriate opening giving the right impetus to the rest of the narrative. It was a pleasure to watch Mithun circle the entire stage on his knees like a top in rapid motion as it was to see him manoeuvre his footwork to represent the chakra as long as he was on stage. His body kinetics was amazing especially when he bent his back like a bow as he aimed his arrow ready to get off the bow! The use of the chakra by lord Vishnu/Krsna-one to cut asunder Dakshayani’s lifeless body being carried by an enraged lord Shiva and another at Sishupal who went overboard in abusing Krsna upheld the artist’s abhinaya abilities. The Pushpastra, essentially didn’t sound like a weapon, was illustrated by Anil Iyer to a string of melodious raga. The astra, a bow and arrow belonging to none other than Manmadha (Cupid), is said to be a constructive one nevertheless powerful in its own way. The dance was, therefore, concentrated on expression and mime, where each arrow was shown to be made of a set of flowers like the lotus (aravinda), the blue lotus (neelothpala) and such other fragrant flowers. It’s a very romantic concept, this weapon of the love god that has the potency to drive anyone aimed at, to dizzy highs or lows! The Pushpastra was shown as being used on Manmatha’s consort Rati rather than on the Yogi Shiva in trying to help Parvati. This served as a relief from the other four impregnable weapons. The use of swar bhol at many places to substitute the mnemonic syllables went in line with the theme. The all-powerful Pinaka (a bow belonging to lord Shiva) fell to Parshwanath Upadhyaye, an inimitable dancer who has the right balance of grace and vigour to fit the role. The description of the Pinaka was in itself pronounced through extraordinary dance – circulating the stage like a chariot (personification of Bhumi Devi with Brahma as charioteer and the sun and moon as the two wheels) to the utterances of the sollukattu (dance bhol), a sight beautiful to behold. So was his snake-like gyration to delineate Vasuki. Since the Pinaka was a combination of Agni at the helm and Vayu at the tail, Parshwanath’s footwork and mime did full justice to the intensity and swiftness of these two elements. The rigour of his movements gives way to mellow abhinaya as lord Shiva eschews the Pinaka which finally finds its way to King Janaka and becomes an integral factor to lord Rama and Sita’s wedding – an apt wrap-up. Dakshina Vaidyanathan’s entry as Durga/Shakti was enthralling with her fluid presentation of all the mudras of Bharatanatyam in succession to the verse on samyuta hasta (Abhinaya Darpana) which conveyed that Devi as all-encompassing female power. The artiste, a vibrant dancer with infallible laya and nritta set the stage afire with her brilliance and pace, which are expected of her character as the wielder of the Trishul, a weapon that was fashioned out of the individual powers of the Trinity. There were two snags from regional point of view and also from the change of scenario: a Sanskrit song would have been greatly appreciated rather than a Tamil one, and when it came to depicting the spiritual connotation of Trishul as the Sushumna, Ida and Pingala nerves running within the spinal column, well, the pace of the psychic chakras being awakened by the grace of goddess could have been tempered down since spiritual awakening is a slow process and couldn’t be rushed through, even if it were in dance! The finale was again an impressive Gayatri recitation to the goddess which lifted the show to a different level. Conceptualised and compered by Usha RK, "Divya Astra" had live orchestra with a compelling nattuvangam by Dr S Vasudevan, an emotive rendition by Venkateshwaran, commanding percussion by T. R. Keshavan, mellifluous flute and violin by Rajat Prasanna and Raghavendra Prasath. | 2016-10-20 | A potent display of art | Ranee Kumar, Divya Astra,arts, culture and entertainment, dance, arts, culture and entertainment;Ranee Kumar;Divya Astra | Friday Review | Ranee Kumar | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/03051/21DFRMITHUN_SHYAM_3051440c.jpg | en | 0.976167 | http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/a-potent-display-of-art/article9246110.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:20+00:00 |
http://www.firmenpresse.de/pressrelease502341.html | Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen (firmenpresse) - NEWPORT BEACH, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 10/24/16 -- ADVANTIS CORPORATION (OTC PINK: ADVT) announced that it has sold out of its initial batch of Amstercans and is receiving significantly larger orders for the trademarked packaging. "Amstercans are a huge hit," Advantis CEO, Christopher Swartz, exclaimed. "Natural Elements reports that their members are ordering increased amounts of their Amstercan branded products, and (Natural Elements) have more than tripled their initial order with us for their next batch of packaging." Medical Marijuana cooperative, Natural Elements, is the first cooperative to order Amstercans with cobranded labeling featuring OG Kush, Blue Dream, and Gorilla Glue. "Existing members are ordering more, and a rush of new members have come on board through word of mouth; we have secured additional client orders, and Amstercans are quickly becoming known to contain the highest quality products." Swartz related some comments that Natural Elements have heard from their members, saying, "They (Natural Elements) tell us that their members are excited to hear the 'whoosh' when opening the cans... the fresh odor the product delivers when it is opened the first time delivers a feeling of comfort and satisfaction." Swartz says that he expected to see strong sales, but the volume increasing so quickly exceeded expectations by a large margin. "As we continue to expand our client base, we thought our first reorder wouldn't be until sometime in November," Swartz said. "The market clearly sees the benefit of having a reliable brand with guaranteed freshness and extended preservation." Swartz added that Amstercans will become a standard in the industry as Proposition 64 packaging and labeling laws go into effect. "We foresee demand increasing exponentially with or without Prop. 64," Swartz continued. "The fact that the detailed labeling and child resistant packaging will be required once it passes, will be huge for us. With the current packaging trend of easy-open medicine bottles, the market will need to find a compliant solution, and Amstercan will dominate this space." N2 Pack supplies the Amstercan technology with the option of a patented child resistant lid, which will be required for recreational sellers once Proposition 64 goes into effect.

http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/do-chor-1972/article9246227.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | Can a thief be lovable? Why not? If the thief on the screen happens to be a Dev Anand or Dharmendra or Shashi Kapoor you don’t mind being “robbed”. We have had lady thieves too and the theme was received with enthusiasm by fans of Hindi cinema. Over the years, one has seen filmmakers exploit this sure recipe for success and one of the modern hits — “Bunty Aur Babli” — only reconfirmed the popularity of this subject — a lovable thief or a thief with a golden heart. In “Do Chor”, Dharmendra essays a similar role, with Tanuja for company, to light up the narrative in style. Light-hearted moments are galore as the two strike a superb chemistry to deliver an entertaining film, backed by music that was a hit during the period it was released. When RD Burman is the composer the fans can be sure of getting some excellent songs which were finely penned by Majrooh Sultanpuri. “Do Chor” did not boast of a stirring script. Very ordinary in fact. Tony (Dharmendra) is a happy-go-lucky man who makes his living by stealing. Sandhya (Tanuja) is a thief too. Circumstances bring them together and the story moves at a pace that keeps you engaged. The city has been rocked by frequent cases of burglaries. By circumstances, obviously contrived, the thefts take place at the homes of four rich men. There is a connection and a pattern to the well-planned acts. The thief picks just one piece from the collection of jewellery and leaves behind a calling card — a swastika. The police is baffled. Why just one piece after breaking open the safe? The suspect is Tony. He is notorious and he is a master of his craft. When confronted, Tony claims innocence. “I was watching ‘Mera Gaon Mera Desh’,” he insists, at the time of the burglary. Even Tony is perplexed now. Who is this thief? He discovers soon that it is Sandhya who is behind the series of burglaries. Sandhya has a compelling reason for whatever she has been carrying out. There is history to her acts. The four wealthy men have been responsible for swindling the jewellery from her mother after the death of her father. It is Sandhya’s way of reclaiming her mother’s lost wealth. Sandhya’s conscious does not allow her to claim what is not hers. She is on a mission and Tony is her partner, pulling off the thefts, and, in the process falling in love. With Tony’s help, Sandhya recovers her mother’s jewellery and the police is able to apprehend the real culprits. Her mother overcomes the shock of losing the valuables. Tony and Sandhya must serve short jail terms before returning to a happy life. Dharmendra loved doing such roles. It brought out the versatility of the actor who landed in Bombay to chase his dreams. From performing serious roles in films like “Bandini”, “Shola Aur Shabnam” and “Anupama”, he moved on to assume the image of an action hero. The ‘He Man’ of Hindi cinema, saving damsels in distress, pounding the bad man single-handedly. He also indulged in comedy with success and it was this ability to perform any role that endured him to a large audience of young and old. Dharmendra and Tanuja figured in a few films, beginning with “Baharen Phir Bhi Aayengi” in 1966, with success and “Do Chor” turned out to be a runaway hit. Tanuja too had a significant part to play and always managed to perform her act effortlessly. There was not much scope for Tanuja to showcase her acting skills in “Do Chor” but she had her moments on the screen. R.D. Burman’s music was an important component of the film with hits like “Meri Jaan Meri Jaan Kehna Mano” by Kishore Kumar, “Chahe Raho Door Chahe Raho Paas”, a duet by Kishore and Lata Mangeshkar. The most popular song, however, on the chart was the Lata-Kishore duet “Kali Palak Teri Gori”. Dharmendra and Tanuja came up with some delightful stuff to turn “Do Chor” into an entertaining offering from the stables of Raj Khosla. When it hit the screens in the early 70s, it was indeed in the must-see category. A revisit today would not be out of place.

http://www.bzbasel.ch/sport/weitere/auch-bauern-wehren-sich-gegen-eidgenoessisches-2022-130651711 | Wie die Basellandschaftliche Zeitung am Dienstag berichtete, sind die Landwirte - Besitzer und Pächter - nicht bereit, das zwischen Aesch und Reinach gelegene Aescher Feld für den grössten Schweizer Sportanlass temporär zur Verfügung zu stellen. Ueli Siegenthaler, einer der Bauern, begründet die ablehnende Haltung in einem Schreiben damit, dass der vorgesehene Standort höchst ungeeignet sei. Der Schaden für das landwirtschaftlich genutzte Land übersteige den Nutzen bei weitem. Weiter steht in dem Brief: "Das bäuerliche Bodenrecht überträgt den Landwirten in dieser Frage - unabhängig vom allenfalls abweichenden Grundeigentum - die abschliessende Verfügungsgewalt." Die Bauern haben demnach die Möglichkeit, das Eidgenössische auf dem vorgesehenen Gebiet zu verhindern. Der Entscheid der Bauern ist gemäss der Mitteilung schon am 2. Juni gefallen. Vor zwei Wochen hatten sich lokale und regionale Umweltschutzorganisationen mit einer damals begonnenen Petition gegen den Austragungsort gewendet, weil auf dem fraglichen Boden schützenswerte Tierarten brüten würden. Die Gegner führten ins Feld, man könnte das Fest wie 1977 im St.-Jakob-Park, dem früheren Joggeli, abhalten. Die Alternative Fussballstadion ist indessen unrealistisch und längst nicht mehr zeitgemäss. Die heutigen Anforderungen an ein Eidgenössisches Schwingfest könnte der St.-Jakob-Park bei weitem nicht mehr erfüllen. Die Nachfrage liegt mittlerweile bei deutlich über 50'000 Zuschauerplätzen, während die Kapazität des Stadions bei lediglich rund 38'000 Plätzen liegt. Zudem wäre es um den zugebauten St.-Jakob-Park herum nicht möglich, ein auch nur einigermassen taugliches Festgelände einzurichten. Die letzten Eidgenössischen in Frauenfeld (2010), Burgdorf (2013) und Estavayer (2016) haben gezeigt, dass jeweils rund 50'000 Zuschauerinnen und Zuschauer ohne Ticket anreisen - nur um am Fest dabei zu sein. Im basellandschaftlichen Kantonalschwingerverband wartet man vorderhand auf die Ergebnisse einer Machbarkeitsstudie, die Anfang November vorliegen sollte. Sie soll die Realisierungschancen des Fests auf dem Aescher Feld ermitteln. Die Regierung des Kantons Baselland steht dem Standort wohlwollend gegenüber. | 2016-10-18 | Auch Bauern wehren sich gegen Eidgenössisches 2022 | bz basel, schwingen | Weitere Sportarten | Az | Bz Basel | http://static.a-z.ch/__ip/wYoMdm0CeqUWowZ3oxbrbkvfHWg/01444055f51778ec0524ca9997bf6171b04d94ba/teaser-medium/zwei-schwinger-bekaempfen-sich-am-schwingfest-in-estavayer-le-lac---in-aesch-kaempfen-die-organisatoren-des-geplanten-fests-2022-derweil-gegen-widerstaende | de | 0.994666 | http://www.bzbasel.ch/sport/weitere/auch-bauern-wehren-sich-gegen-eidgenoessisches-2022-130651711 | bzbasel.ch | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161018145313-00001.warc.gz | 2016-10-18T15:51:22+00:00 |
http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/sober-instrument-pristine-voice/article9246100.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | Ustad Irshad Khan and Vidushi Kishori Amonkar lived up to their reputation at a concert in New Delhi There were long queues of cars parked in front of the Nehru Park when the Society for the Promotion of Indian Classical Music And Culture Amongst Youth (SPIC MACAY) in collaboration with the NDMC organised its Music in the Park concert featuring Ustad Irshad Khan in a surbahar recital and Hindustani vocal by Gaan-Saraswati Kishori Amonkar. Belonging to the famed Etawah Imdadkhani Gharana, Irshad is the son and disciple of Ustad Imrat Khan, the younger brother of Ustad Vilayat Khan. His choice of the sombre evening raga Shri was apt for the rare and sober instrument like the surbahar. Opening with a detailed alaap-jod-jhala in the authentic Beenkar style, he played his own composition set to Chautal in the conventional dhrupad ang. Dr. Anil Chaudhary, who accompanied him on pakhawaj, was equally brilliant. It was, in fact, difficult to believe that he is an eye surgeon, retired from RML Hospital, who is also trained in Kudau Singh tradition of pakhawaj, playing to this professional level. Irshad continued the same composition in faster tempo also concluding with the climax of jhala. Normally, the instrumentalists switch over to Teentala in the jhala sequence, but Irshad remarkably maintained the 12-beat cycle of Chautala till the end. He concluded his surbahar recital with a dhun in Manjh-Khamaj set to the addha theka which he treated in thumri-dadra style. Vidushi Kishori Amonkar was accompanied by Milind Raikar on violin, Shreyas Govitrikar on harmonium, Pradeep Dikshit on tabla and two of her disciples Tejaswini, her granddaughter, and Nandini Bedekar providing vocal support. She opened her vocal recital with Bageshri, the most appropriate raga of that time of the evening. It took her time to warm up as she had a sore throat, but once she did, she was in her usual form. The traditional Bada Khayal “Kaun gat bhai…” set to slow Teentala as per the convention of the Jaipur Atrauli Gharana, was dealt with emotional appeal during the leisurely progressing alap badhat with the gradual sequential treatment of the raga in unique permutations and combinations of swaras. The drut khayal “Eri main kaise ghar jaun…” set to adha Teentala was adorned with variety of taans that shot up till the Pancham of the higher octave. Amonkar concluded with the famous composition “Lagi re mori nai lagan…” set to drut Ek Taal in raga Kamod. The brilliant accompanists, especially her disciple Milind Raikar on violin, enhanced her memorable concert. | 2016-10-20 | Sober instrument, pristine voice | Manjari Sinha, Ustad Irshad Khan, Vidushi Kishori Amonkar ,arts, culture and entertainment, music, arts, culture and entertainment;Manjari Sinha;Ustad Irshad Khan;Vidushi Kishori Amonkar | Friday Review | Manjari Sinha | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/03051/IRSHADKHAN_3051431c.jpg | en | 0.951657 | http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/sober-instrument-pristine-voice/article9246100.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:24+00:00 |

Die "Jungbullen" unterlagen am Montagabend zum Auftakt der 14. Runde dem FC Wacker Innsbruck in Grödig 1:2 (1:1) und kassierten damit die erste Saisonniederlage. Die Tiroler setzten hingegen ihren Aufwärtstrend mit dem zweiten Sieg gegen einen Titelaspiranten in Folge nach dem 2:1 gegen den LASK fort. Mit Toren von Patrik Eler (3.) und Roman Kerschbaum (53.) fixierten die Innsbrucker ihren ersten, sie haben nun unter Interimstrainer Thomas Grumser drei von vier Spielen gewonnen. Liefering scheint ihnen ganz gut zu liegen: Von den jüngsten sieben direkten Duellen ging nur eines verloren. In der fünften Runde hatte es am Tivoli ein 1:1 gegeben. Die Grumser- Truppe schaffte dank ihrer klar besten Saisonleistung vorerst den Sprung unter die Top 5 der Liga und kann sich daher wieder ausschließlich nach vorne orientieren. Der Abstand auf die nicht aufstiegsberechtigten Lieferinger beträgt jetzt 13 Punkte, der Zweite SC Austria Lustenau, der am Dienstag auf Blau- Weiß Linz trifft, ist nur noch sieben Zähler entfernt. Trotz der Heimstärke der Lieferinger, die zuvor alle sechs Partien im Goldberg- Stadion gewonnen hatten, versteckten sich die Gäste von Beginn an nicht, hielten voll dagegen und gingen auch schnell in Führung. Unmittelbar nach einer Tetteh- Topchance der Hausherren verwertete Eler eine Lercher- Hereingabe (3.). Der Stürmer hatte dabei Glück, dass der Ball von Michael Switil entscheidend abgefälscht wurde. Die Lieferinger schlugen aber schnell zurück. Nach einem Kobleder- Patzer konnte Hannes Wolf an Grünwald- Ersatzmann Lukas Wedl vorbeiziehen und zum 1:1 einschießen (8.). Extrem flott ging es auch in der Folge weiter, aufseiten der Tiroler war Simon Pirkl gefährlich (15.), auf Lieferinger Seite scheiterte Tetteh an Wedl (37.). Nach dem Seitenwechsel starteten die Tiroler viel besser und wurden auch belohnt. Kerschbaum zog ohne viel nachzudenken aus 20 Metern ab und traf genau ins Eck (53.). Da Christoph Freitag (55.), Pirkl (58.) und Eler (71.) Topchancen ausließen, blieb es spannend und konnte Liefering noch nahe an ein Remis herankommen. Wolf verfehlte bei der besten Möglichkeit aber nach Tetteh- Hereingabe knapp das Tor (84.). Damit blieb den Hausherren der zehnte Saisonsieg verwehrt. Das Ergebnis:

http://www.firmenpresse.de/pressrelease502347.html | Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen A selection of traditional English foods - enjoy and savour these strangely named but delicious dishes. (firmenpresse) - English food is undoubtedly misunderstood. Several deem it also bland or also boring, citing their appreciate for spicy curries in Thailand or fresh sushi in Japan. Sure, British food can seem dull in comparison to other countrys conventional dishes, but theres something decidedly comforting about English meals.Study on to discover about our favourite regular English foods, and why theyre definitely not boring or bland:5 Best Traditional British FoodsFish and chipsFish and chips came about due to the development of trawl fishing inside the North Sea and was one of several only foods to not be rationed in England throughout the Second Planet War. Its made by coating cod or haddock in batter after which deep frying until the batter is crispy along with the fish inside is soft. Paired with chunky fried chips and a side of mushy peas, this has been a much-loved meal in quite a few households in England for many years and it is even improved eaten by the seaside, rain or shine!Bubble and squeakBubble and squeak may have lost its reputation over the last decade however it nonetheless remains in the traditional English food hall of fame to get a couple of factors: 1) its an amazing way of utilizing up leftovers, two) it is scrumptious. The recipe couldnt be simpler; if youve got any leftover cabbage (or any vegetables) and mashed potato from a previously cooked meal, throw them each inside a frying pan having a tiny dollop of butter and stir till the cabbage begins to brown. Serve using a fried egg on leading for any delicious (and inexpensive) brunch.Bangers and mashA further conventional English meal featuring mashed potato (are you seeing a theme here? We truly like potatoes), bangers and mash is fundamentally sausages (typically pork) fried or cooked in the oven, served with a generous helping of mashed potato (made with, certainly, a lot of butter and milk). Traditionally youd also serve it with fried onions on top and then pour over some gravy. Theres actually absolutely nothing a lot more comforting when it is raining outdoors. Tip: a glass of red wine goes incredibly nicely with this meal.Bread and butter puddingWere not going to lie; the English love their desserts. So much so that thered be far as well a lot of to mention here, so weve gone with what we really feel is the most regular of your lot: bread and butter pudding. Decades ago, bread and butter pudding was a meal that poorer households would have produced from leftover stale bread; steaming the bread, layering it in a dish, adding sultanas or dried fruit, soaking it all in milk and after that baking in the oven. Years later, its seen as a lot more of a dessert than a major meal but, due to the fact its filling, and warm, its nevertheless hugely common.Roast dinnerWe couldnt tell you about regular English meals with out mentioning the humble roast dinner. Consisting of roasted meat, mashed or roast potatoes, vegetables, stuffing, Yorkshire puddings and gravy, it was traditionally served as the primary meal on Sundays, but truly it could be eaten day of the week. The beauty in the English roast dinner lies less in how it tastes (although, its clearly delicious) and much more about what it resembles; it is a time for family and pals to have together, eat superior food, and spend time collectively. Its at the heart of British cooking, and it is undoubtedly not going anywhere anytime soon.

Die sechs jungen Männer im Alter von 19 bis 26 Jahren hatten am Nachmittag bei einem Bauernhof in Ried im Traunkreis gemeinsam gebechert, dabei offenbar zu viel "Zielwasser" erwischt. Sie schossen mit einem Kleinkalibergewehr auf eine Dose, die sie vor einem Baum aufgestellt hatten. Doch die Schießübungen gingen fatal aus: Ein Projektil traf einen 50 Jahre alten Polen, der zu diesem Zeitpunkt vor dem Nachbarhaus stand, im Gesicht! Eine weitere Ladung streifte einen 24- Jährigen, der neben dem ersten Opfer stand. Anrainer alarmierten die Polizei, zehn Streifen und die Elitetruppe Cobra rückten an und umstellten den Stadl, in dem sich die sechs "Ballermänner" aufhielten. Einer von ihnen lief davon und entledigte sich des Gewehrs. Er wurde jedoch wenig später gemeinsam mit seinen Freunden festgenommen. Die sechs Verdächtigen wurden nach der Einvernahme auf Anordnung der Staatsanwaltschaft Steyr auf freiem Fuß angezeigt. Der angeschossene Pole wurde ins Klinikum Wels eingeliefert und operiert. Er muss noch im Spital bleiben. Liebe Leserin, lieber Leser, die Kommentarfunktion steht Ihnen ab 06:00 Uhr wieder wie gewohnt zur Verfügung.

http://www.bucksherald.co.uk/news/unitary-all-you-need-to-know-on-the-two-arguments-and-why-you-should-care-1-7640701 | Poring over the inner workings of local government is few people’s idea of breezy reading but two recent reports released by local authorities in our area are important documents which could affect our daily lives in the future. Councils are responsible for tangible things like bin collections, street cleaning, museums, libraries, social services and environmental health, not to mention the impact they have on our bank balance with the imposition of council tax. And it’s money, stupid, which has brought us to this crisis point. Central government funding cuts and the wider malaise in the economy have left councils strapped for cash and needing to find more and creative savings to their budgets. Now, Bucks County Council is proposing the daddy of all changes in a bid to save money and protect what services are left. A single, unitary authority would combine the forces of the four smaller district councils in our area into one supra-council which, in theory, would pool resources and save cash though economies of scale. Of course, those very district councils aren’t such big fans of the idea as they all rather like their status and jobs, thank you very much. So Aylesbury Vale District Council and the three other district councils in the county last week released a counter proposition for how local authorities might operate in the future. Bucks County Council’s ‘Future Vision’ (more information is available via the website http://futurebucks.co.uk) “One new council for Buckinghamshire - better, truly local services. One contact point for services and saving millions” screams a blue neon logo on the county council’s website. It has summarised its argument into three headings: simpler, better value and closer. Aylesbury Vale District Council, as well as the three other district councils in our county, Chiltern, South Bucks and Wycombe, commissioned an independent analysis of the options for reforming the council structure, which was released as the Herald went to press last Wednesday. They published a 94-page report by accountants Deloiite and a 10-page summary for its plan, which proposes abolishing the county council. Both argue that their plans ‘modernise’ local government - here’s a summary of the arguments put forward by both camps. Simpler? The county council says there will be a one-stop-shop for residents and businesses to access all council services across the county. There would be one website and phone number for customers to use. All services will be under one chief executive “leading to more joined-up thinking and better services” and it argues that many services are already delivered on a countywide basis. The districts say: “The two or three-unitary option provides the greatest opportuinity to transform local government and achieve long-term financial and operational sustainability.” Better value? Bucks County Council says its plan will save taxpayers millions of pounds at a time of severe financial pressur es. It will ‘massively’ increase efficiency, buying power and economies of scale, and provide an opportunity to sell buildings no longer in use, raising millions more to invest in residents’ priorities. In 2010, the county and district councils combined received £88m in government funding. It was £71.5m in 2013/14 and £27.6m for the current 2016/17 financial year. Both camps agree that central government funding via the Revenue Support Grant will reduce to nil by 2019/20. The county wants to reduce ‘back-office duplication’ and ‘cut the bureaucratic and costly layers of local government’ and claims its plan will save taxpayers more than £18m a year and total savings of more than £45m over the first five years. The districts’ preferred options would provide net savings of £66.6m (two-tier) or £63.4m (three-tier) over five years, it claims, and says total service expenditure by the existing five councils in Buckinghamshire in 2015/16 was £861.1m. The districts’ own report says the county council’s option would provide net savings of £80.7m over five years. Structure The county council says there will be a clearer link between councillors, parishes and local community activists and it proposes a partnership offering parish and town councils more powrer to take on services. The number of councillors sitting on local authorities in the county would reduce from 238 to 98, saving £1.2m. It will also create 19 ‘community boards’ made up of local councillors to take decisions on issues such as funding for community groups and roads maintenance. The districts argue that the two or three-unitary option provides the greatest opportuinity to transform local government and achieve long-term financial and operational sustainability. Under their plan, a two-unit model would be based on the existing boundaries of Aylesbury Vale and one covering the combined existing boundaries of Chiltern, South Bucks and Wycombe district councils. Adult social care, children’s services, economic development, transport and spatial planning would be delivered countywide while environment, local planning, community, culture and leisure services would be delivered separately by the two units. A three-unit model would be based on the existing boundaries of Aylesbury Vale, Wycombe district, and a third combining the existing boundaries of Chiltern and South Bucks districts. This would be the same as the above but with environment, local planning, community, culture and leisure services delivered separately by the three units. The district councils argue that political accountability will be lost under the county’s plan and say “locally accountable decision-making” is needed. | 2016-10-21 | UNITARY: All you need to know on the two arguments and why you should care | Carousels,Local,human interest | null | Bucks Herald | http://res.cloudinary.com/jpress/image/fetch/w_300,f_auto,ar_3:2,c_fill/http://www.bucksherald.co.uk/webimage/1.7640699.1477058743!/image/image.jpg | en | 0.954701 | http://www.bucksherald.co.uk/news/unitary-all-you-need-to-know-on-the-two-arguments-and-why-you-should-care-1-7640701 | bucksherald.co.uk | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161021145316-00004.warc.gz | 2016-10-21T15:31:24+00:00 |

http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/brickell/article109378932.html | The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration has opened an investigation into a construction site accident that killed one bystander and injured five other people Wednesday afternoon when scaffolding fell from the top floor of a Brickell-area condo tower under construction. On Thursday morning, streets around the building, including Brickell Avenue, were reopened. Piles of crushed glass, metal and wood could still be seen on the construction site for the approximately 50-story Echo Brickell at 1451 Brickell Ave. The construction site remained closed as the investigation continued. The man who died was a bystander in his 50s who ran from falling debris and had a “cardiac incident,” according to Miami Fire Rescue Deputy Chief Joseph Zahralban. Miami police have not released his identity. The injuries were not life-threatening and those people taken to the hospital after the accident have been released, according to the developer Property Markets Group. According to Miami City Manager Daniel Alfonso, the structure that fell onto Brickell Avenue Wednesday was a cantilevered scaffolding that hangs out over the edge of the high-rise. Alfonso said construction workers were loading and unloading equipment onto the platform using a crane and the temporary structure either became stressed or took on too much weight. “The part that sticks out over the edge of the building had weight on it, and apparently the structure failed,” he said. Miami’s building department and OSHA inspectors are investigating the incident, and police have been stationed near the site at private expense to help direct traffic as officials work to determine exactly what happened, he said. Miami’s building inspectors would need to sign off on any attempt to reopen the construction site, he said. “We haven’t issued a ticket yet. The investigation is still going on. Our building officials were out there yesterday and will be out there today as well,” he said Thursday. Alfonso said an engineer representing Echo Brickell has already looked at the building and issued a signed letter to the city asserting that the building itself was not damaged by the falling equipment. But he said engineers also need to look at two additional scaffoldings located on the side of the high-rise to make sure they're safe as well. The building’s developer, Property Markets Group (PMG), released an updated statement Thursday morning. “When a construction accident occurs, all you can hope for is the safety of everyone involved. Kevin, Michael Stern, myself, and everyone at PMG and JDS send our deepest sympathies and condolences to the family of the gentleman who passed,” said Ryan Shear, principal of Property Markets Group, in the statement. “At this time we understand that everyone else injured has been released from the hospital. PMG, our general contractor (JMA) and city officials are working diligently to understand what happened with the form work connection, which has not been determined at this time. The site has been secured and is currently being reinspected to ensure proper safety measures are in place.” This report will be updated as more information becomes available. | 2016-10-20 | Feds open inquiry on condo construction accident | Echo Brickell, condo, construction, accident, fatality, death, scaffolding, injuries, Brickell, Miami, Miami City Manager, Daniel Alfonso, Property Markets Group, PMG | Nancy Dahlberg; David Smiley ndahlberg com | Miamiherald | http://www.miamiherald.com/latest-news/f5q1iy-Scaffolding-collapse-in-Brickell-wounds-5-kills-1/ALTERNATES/LANDSCAPE_1140/Scaffolding%20collapse%20in%20Brickell%20wounds%205,%20kills%201 | en | 0.983528 | http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/brickell/article109378932.html | miamiherald.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:25+00:00 |

Dass zu dem Zeitpunkt kein Strom mehr floss, ist dem 35- jährigen Bimfahrer zu verdanken. "Ich habe einfach nur funktioniert", sagt Robin S., der bei einem Kollegen die Notabschaltung veranlasste. Das Video verbreitete sich wie ein Lauffeuer im Internet und sorgte für riesige Aufregung. Wie berichtet , wurden in der chaotischen Situation zwei Mitarbeiter der Wiener Linien zu Lebensrettern - allen voran Straßenbahnfahrer Robin S. "Der Mann hat gegen die Scheibe getrommelt und sich schließlich vor die Straßenbahn gelegt", schildert der 35- Jährige. Sofort nahm er mit der Betriebsleitstelle Kontakt auf und forderte die Einsatzkräfte an. Nachdem sich der Syrer schreiend auf ein Auto geworfen hatte, kehrte er zu der Garnitur der Linie 6 zurück und kletterte auf das Schienenfahrzeug. "Ich war die ganze Zeit mit der Leitstelle in Kontakt. Als er zurückkehrte, wurde die Stromzufuhr sofort gekappt", so der 35- Jährige. Man werde "für solche Extremsituatioenen" geschult. "Ich habe einfach nur funktioniert", zeigt sich S. bescheiden. Keine Sekunde zu früh - nur Augenblicke später fasste der 23- jährige Asylwerber in selbstmörderischer Absicht die Starkstromleitung an.

and Kathleen Hennessey
Associated Press
WASHINGTON: “Stop whining,” President Barack Obama rebuked Donald Trump on Tuesday, speaking out as seldom before on next month’s election and chiding the Republican for sowing suspicion about the integrity of America’s presidential vote. Obama also accused Trump of cozying up to Russia’s Vladimir Putin to a degree “unprecedented in American politics.” The president said Trump’s intensifying pre-emptive warnings about voter fraud are unheard of in modern politics. The rhetoric is not based on any evidence, Obama said, but is simply aimed at discrediting the outcome before the first votes are counted. “You start whining before the game is even over?” Obama said at a Rose Garden news conference. “If whenever things are going badly for you and you lose you start blaming somebody else — then you don’t have what it takes to be in this job.” Campaigning in Colorado, the GOP candidate repeated his assertions about “corrupt” elections but did not respond directly to the president. Trump vowed to “drain the swamp” in Washington, and for the first time promised to push for a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on all members of Congress. The president’s remarks came as Trump and his Republican allies look for ways to regain momentum after a damaging few weeks in the campaign. Heading into the third and final debate Wednesday night, Trump is trailing in the polls and running out of time for a comeback before Nov. 8. Holding back? Obama waded into the race to elect a successor, speaking at the White House where he was hosting his final state visit. Italy’s Prime Minister Matteo Renzi at his side, the president initially said he would pull his punches when it came to politics, respecting the official setting. But when he was asked about Trump’s rhetoric, he hardly held back. “I would invite Mr. Trump to stop whining and go try to make his case to get votes,” he said. The GOP candidate has ramped up warnings about potential fraud. That’s drawing criticism not only from Democrats but from his own party, particularly the state and county officials who run local elections, who fear the rhetoric will give losers license to dispute any results. Asked about Trump’s claims on Tuesday, running mate Mike Pence dodged and suggested Trump’s point actually was about the “overwhelming bias in the national media.” Clinton held no public events Tuesday while she prepared for the debate. She has her own troubles and is certain to be asked about the latest revelations involving her use of a private email server during her time as secretary of state. New FBI documents released Monday revived questions about whether she received classified information and whether State Department allies sought to protect her from criticism over the email arrangement. Support for accuser People magazine reported Tuesday that a half-dozen people have come forward to corroborate its writer’s account of being sexually assaulted by Trump and its aftermath. Natasha Stoynoff, a former staff writer at the celebrity magazine, wrote last week that Trump grabbed her, pinned her against a wall and forcibly kissed her in a room at his Mar-a-Lago mansion in Florida in 2005. The Republican presidential nominee has denied the accusation. Though Stoynoff says she and Trump were alone when he accosted her, the magazine’s latest story quotes five friends and former co-workers who say the writer told them about the incident shortly after it happened. | 2016-10-18 | ‘Stop whining,’ Obama tells Trump, chiding for fraud talk | National, Washington | National, Washington | Kevin Freking; Kathleen Hennessey | www.ohio.com | http://www.ohio.com/polopoly_fs/1.720351.1476845436!/image/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/landscape_440/electrdp19cut-01.jpg | en | 0.974419 | http://www.ohio.com/news/politics/national/stop-whining-obama-tells-trump-chiding-for-fraud-talk-1.720354?localLinksEnabled=false&cache=18961415304345%25252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252Fnews%2525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525 | ohio.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161019145314-00002.warc.gz | 2016-10-19T15:55:45+00:00 |

http://www.firmenpresse.de/pressrelease502352.html | Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen New Hampshire-based Energy Retailer Selects FirstLight's Internet Service to Improve Connectivity to Ensure Seamless Business Operations (firmenpresse) - ALBANY, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 10/24/16 -- , a leading fiber-optic bandwidth infrastructure services provider operating in New York and Northern New England, announced today that & Propane, a family-owned and locally-operated energy retailer serving northern New Hampshire and western Maine, has selected FirstLight to provide Internet connectivity to its offices in North Conway and Lincoln, New Hampshire. FirstLight's dedicated, fiber-based Internet service represents a significant improvement over to the company's prior Internet and VoIP service and will better support its business operations. "Last winter, our company faced several connectivity issues, which prompted us to begin the search for a new Internet provider," stated Kirk Saunders, Vice President of White Mountain Oil & Propane. "With FirstLight's Internet service our business operates much more efficiently. Due to the increased Internet speeds, our Accounting Department is now able to process credit cards in multiple quantities in just one to two hours, down from what used to take two-thirds of the day; and we are better able to put together training materials for our service technician training classes due to the increased download speeds. Like White Mountain Oil & Propane, FirstLight is a locally based company that has the technology, expertise, and great, responsive team, which is why switching to FirstLight was an easy decision.

(firmenpresse) - Jeder Mensch hat es beim Einkaufen in der Hand, ob er Tierleid unterstützt oder nicht. Schon mit einem tierleidfreien Abendessen in der Woche in Deutschlands Haushalten könnte 175 Millionen Tieren der Weg zur Schlachtbank erspart bleiben. Aufgrund der tierquälerischen Haltungsbedingungen haben sie keine Möglichkeit ihr natürliches Verhalten auszuüben und ihre Körper werden eher der Umgebung angepasst als umgekehrt. All diese Grausamkeiten finden hinter verschlossenen Türen statt und der Verbraucher weiß nicht, unter welchen Bedingungen das Fleisch in der Kühltheke produziert wurde. Außerdem geraten Landwirte aufgrund der enormen Menge billigen Fleisches unter Druck und müssen dies auf Kosten des Tierwohls produzieren. Aus diesen Gründen sollen im Laufe des Jahres bundesweit LIDL-Filialen in allen 77 deutschen Großstädten mit dem Plakat-Wagen angefahren werden, um Passanten für ein tierleidfreies Abendessen zu animieren. Die Tour startete vor wenigen Monaten in Berlin. Auf dem 2x4 Meter großen Plakat des Wagens prangt die Aufschrift "LIDL verschont nicht" und macht Passanten und Kunden von LIDL auf das unsagbare Tierleid der Fleischindustrie aufmerksam. Mit einem kostenlosen Nachtisch sollen sie animiert werden, Zutaten für ein tierleidfreies Abendessen einzukaufen. Zusätzlich erhalten Bürger vor Ort und online auf www.tierschutzbuero.de/lidl die Möglichkeit ihre Stimme gegen Massentierhaltung abzugeben.

http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/crime/article109381857.html | The mystery surrounding the dead woman found on the side of a Kendall highway deepened Thursday when a spokesman for the Florida Highway Patrol said the Miami-Dade County medical examiner couldn’t determine the cause of death. “They couldn’t determine if it was crash-related or not,” said FHP spokesman Yosdany Veloz. Calls to the medical examiner were not returned. On Wednesday, the county medical examiner site listed the dead woman as Michelle Wilson, 40. It said her next of kin had not yet been notified of her death. Despite the acknowledgment from the medical examiner, Miami-Dade police and the FHP have not publicly reported the woman’s name. Also a mystery: How anyone was able to identify her. She was found without identification or any distinguishing features, like tattoos. Veloz said the FHP and Miami-Dade police will continue to search for a cause of death. We “are still working together to come to a conclusion,” he said. Police found Wilson at about 3:30 a.m. Tuesday lying face up next to a concrete barrier on the Don Shula Expressway near Florida’s Turnpike. She was fully clothed, her arms flat at her sides. Other than a laceration to the back of her head, Veloz said, there didn’t appear to be any injuries to her body. The injury to her head, a hole according to the FHP spokesman, was not consistent with a bullet wound. The only thing out of place on Wilson’s body: She was missing a sandal. “It’s weird,” Veloz said of the incident earlier this week. | 2016-10-20 | Medical examiner doesn’t know what killed woman found on side of highway | Miami-Dade, dead, laceration, highway, medical examiner, Don, Shula, FLorida, Turnpike, ramp, West, Kendall | Charles Rabin crabin com | Miamiherald | http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/crime/jquy34/picture109381852/ALTERNATES/LANDSCAPE_1140/body | en | 0.967599 | http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/crime/article109381857.html | miamiherald.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:27+00:00 |

Der größte Teil davon entfällt mit mehr als einem Viertel auf den Bereich Wohnen und Energie. Aufgrund einer schwachen Wirtschaft hat der Konsum allerdings deutlich weniger stark zugelegt als die Teuerung. So stiegen die Haushaltsausgaben pro Kopf in den vergangenen fünf Jahren um nur 90 Euro an, während die Inflation im gleichen Zeitraum in absoluten Zahlen um 214 Euro zugelegt hat, so eine Erhebung der Statistik Austria. Die Einkommen sind somit weniger stark gestiegen als die Preise. Man kann sich daher für sein Geld heute weniger leisten als noch vor fünf Jahren. Das führte dazu, dass der Ausgabenanteil für Wohnen und Energie von 23,8 Prozent auf zuletzt 26,1 Prozent gestiegen ist. Auch wenn z.B. die Miete stärker steigt als das eigene Gehalt, zieht man nicht in eine billigere Wohnung. Eklatant auch die Unterschiede zwischen reicheren und ärmeren Haushalten: Während erstgenannte nur ein Drittel für existenzielle Dinge (Miete, Heizung, Nahrung usw.) ausgeben müssen, sind es bei jenen mit geringerem Budget 45 Prozent. Der Anteil für Alkoholika und Tabakwaren ist hingegen zuletzt gesunken. Liebe Leserin, lieber Leser, die Kommentarfunktion steht Ihnen ab 06:00 Uhr wieder wie gewohnt zur Verfügung.

http://www.bzbasel.ch/ausland/offensive-auf-is-hochburg-mossul-kurden-melden-erste-erfolge-130648230 | Irakische Sicherheitskräfte hatten zuvor im Schutze der Nacht nach monatelangen Vorbereitungen die grossangelegte Militäroperation begonnen. Sie soll die Grossstadt vom IS befreien. Sollte das tatsächlich gelingen, wären die Extremisten im Irak militärisch weitestgehend besiegt. Hilfsorganisationen sehen durch die Offensive jedoch mehr als eine Millionen Zivilisten in Gefahr und forderten für diese sichere Fluchtwege. "Stunde des Sieges" Iraks Ministerpräsident Haidar al-Abadi erklärte in einer kurzen Fernsehansprache am frühen Montagmorgen, die Stunde des Sieges sei gekommen. Al-Abadi rief die Bürger von Mossul dazu auf, mit den irakischen Streitkräften zu kooperieren. 2016 werde das Jahr sein, in dem der IS besiegt werde. Mossul ist die letzte Bastion des IS im Irak. Die Millionenstadt unweit der Grenze zur Türkei steht seit Juni 2014 unter Kontrolle der Extremisten. Von Mossul aus überrannte der IS weite Teile des Landes. Inzwischen hat er viele dieser Gebiete wieder eingebüsst. Im Nachbarland Syrien beherrscht die sunnitische Miliz jedoch weiter grosse Landstriche, steht dort aber ebenfalls unter Druck. Zehntausende Kämpfer Kräfte der irakischen Armee und Polizei hatten in den vergangenen Wochen und Tagen im Umland von MossulStellung bezogen. Unterstützt werden sie bei der Offensive von kurdischen Peschmerga-Kämpfern und lokalen sunnitischen Milizen. Nach Medienberichten zählen zu der Allianz rund 30'000 Kämpfer. Die von den USA geführte internationale Koalition fliegt Luftangriffe gegen den IS. US-Verteidigungsminister Ashton Carter erklärte nach Beginn der Offensive, Ziel sei es, den IS dauerhaft zu besiegen und sowohl Mossulals auch den Rest des Iraks "vom Hass und der Brutalität" der Extremisten zu befreien. Nach Einschätzung der USA ist allerdings nicht mit einem schnellen Erfolg der Regierungstruppen zu rechnen. Umstritten ist der Einsatz schiitischer Milizen bei der Offensive. Diese hatten angekündigt, sich an der Militäroperation zu beteiligen. Die sunnitische Minderheit im Land lehnt das jedoch ab, weil sie befürchtet, dass die schiitischen Milizen ihren Einfluss im Land noch weiter ausbauen könnten. In Mossul und im Umland sollen sich rund 4000 IS-Kämpfer aufhalten. Diese haben nach verschiedenen Berichten in der Stadt tiefe Gräben und ein Tunnelsystem ausgehoben, um sich zu verteidigen. Ausserdem ist damit zu rechnen, dass Strassen und Gebäude mit Sprengfallen versehen sind, was einen Vormarsch auf die Stadt erschweren könnte. Sorge um Zivilisten UNO-Nothilfekoordinator Stephen O'Brien warnte, er sei höchst besorgt um die Sicherheit von rund 1,5 Millionen Menschen in Mossul. Die Hilfsorganisation UNHCR rechnet mit bis zu einer Million Flüchtlingen, von denen bis zu 700'000 Hilfe benötigen könnten. Familien seien einem extremen Risiko ausgesetzt, in die Schusslinie zu geraten oder von Scharfschützen ins Visier genommen zu werden. Die Hilfsorganisationen Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) forderte die Einrichtung von sicheren Fluchtrouten. Ohne diese hätten Zivilisten nur die düstere Wahl, zurückzubleiben und durch Angriffe bedroht zu werden oder ihr Leben auf der Flucht zu riskieren. Dem NRC zufolge könnten allein in den ersten Tagen bis zu 200'000 Menschen fliehen. Hilfsorganisationen hatten vor Beginn der Offensive geklagt, es seien nicht genug Lager errichtet worden, um die Vertriebenen versorgen zu können. Nach Angaben des UNO-Nothilfebüros OCHA gibt es derzeit in Notaufnahmelagern und Camps Plätze für rund 60'000 Menschen. Der Bau von Plätzen für rund 250'000 weitere Menschen sei im Gange. O'Brien beklagte, die humanitäre Hilfe für den Irak sei unterfinanziert. Aufstieg und Niederlagen der IS-Milz seit Ausrufung des "Kalifats" Die Terrormiliz Islamischer Staat (IS) ging aus einem Ableger des Terrornetzwerks Al-Kaida im Irak hervor. Ein Rückblick: 9./10. Juni 2014: IS-Extremisten bringen Mossul vollständig unter Kontrolle. Von der nordirakischen Metropole aus überrannte die IS-Miliz weite Teile des Landes. 29. Juni 2014: Sunnitische Dschihadisten rufen in den von ihnen eroberten Gebieten in Syrien und im Irak ein "Kalifat" aus. Erster "Kalif" des vermeintlichen Gottesstaates ist Abu Bakr al-Bagdadi. August: Die USA fliegen erste Angriffe im Nordirak. Die Enthauptung des US-Journalisten James Foley schockiert die Welt. In den folgenden Monaten verbreitet die IS-Miliz im Internet weitere Videos mit der Ermordung zweier US-Bürger und zweier Briten. September: Frankreich startet Luftangriffe im Irak. Einige Tage später bombardieren das US-Militär und Luftstreitkräfte von arabischen Partnerländern erstmals IS-Stellungen in Syrien. Dezember: Kurdische Soldaten beenden mit Hilfe internationaler Luftangriffe die Belagerung des Sindschar-Gebirges nahe der von der IS-Miliz kontrollierten irakischen Stadt Mossul. Im August waren Zehntausende Angehörige der jesidischen Volksgruppe vor den Dschihadisten in die Berge geflohen. Januar 2015: Nach monatelangen Kämpfen vertreiben kurdische Kämpfer die IS-Miliz aus der nordsyrischen Stadt Kobane an der türkischen Grenze. Februar: Ein Video zeigt, wie ein gefangener jordanischer Pilot bei lebendigem Leib verbrannt wird. März: Irakische Kräfte erobern die strategisch wichtige Stadt Tikrit zurück, die die Extremisten im Juni 2014 besetzt hatten. April: IS-Kämpfer dringen in Ramadi 100 Kilometer westlich von Bagdad ein. Tausende Iraker fliehen vor dem Terror Richtung Bagdad. Mai: Die Terrormiliz bringt Ramadi vollständig unter ihre Kontrolle. Kurden erobern IS-Gebiete in Nordsyrien. Juli: Türkische Kampfjets fliegen erstmals Angriffe auf IS-Stellungen in Syrien. August: Die IS-Miliz enthauptet den früheren Chef-Archäologen der irakischen Oasenstadt Palmyra und sprengt den rund 2000 Jahre alten Baaltempel und den Tempel Baal-Schamin. Nach US-Angaben stirbt die Nummer zwei der Terrormiliz, Hadschi Mutas, bei einem Luftangriff im Irak. November: Eine Drohne tötet den IS-Extremisten "Dschihadi John". In Propagandavideos war zu sehen, wie er mehrere Geiseln exekutiert hatte. März 2016: US-Verteidigungsminister Ashton Carter bestätigt die Tötung des IS-Finanzchefs Abdul Rahman Mustafa al-Kaduli, der Nummer zwei der Terrormiliz. April: Laut Pentagon hat die Terrormiliz seit 2014 rund 45 Prozent der von ihr eroberten Gebiete im Irak verloren, in Syrien 20 Prozent. Juni: Unterstützt vom US-Militär nimmt die irakische Armee die IS-Hochburg Falludscha ein. Juli: Bei dem bisher tödlichsten Anschlag der IS-Miliz sterben in Bagdad knapp 300 Menschen. August/September: Innerhalb weniger Wochen meldet das Pentagon die Tötung des IS-Propagandachefs und seines Nachfolgers. Oktober: Die irakische Armee beginnt mit dem Sturm auf Mossul, die letzte Bastion der IS-Miliz im Irak. Die Terrormiliz hatte die Stadt im Juni 2014 vollständig unter ihre Kontrolle gebracht. | 2016-10-17 | Offensive auf IS-Hochburg Mossul – Kurden melden erste Erfolge | bz basel, irak, islamischer staat, terrormiliz | Ausland | Az | Bz Basel | http://static.a-z.ch/__ip/Hfuq0I-NXyRXTwm8NQc8IoEahQs/1a51ad034669a6d7cb6acea5457640e83df9d754/teaser-medium/mossul-grossoffensive-irak-is | de | 0.991881 | http://www.bzbasel.ch/ausland/offensive-auf-is-hochburg-mossul-kurden-melden-erste-erfolge-130648230 | bzbasel.ch | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161017145313-00000.warc.gz | 2016-10-17T15:39:19+00:00 |
http://www.firmenpresse.de/pressinfo1413882/krebserkrankung-und-ihre-folgen-fuer-berufstaetige-und-krankenversicherer.html | Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen Von den jedes Jahrüber 500.000 in Deutschland neu an Krebs Erkrankten sterben immer noch 220.000 Menschen an den Folgen der Erkrankung. (firmenpresse) - (NL/1754008152) Die Therapien haben sich in den letzten Jahren verbessert, sind humaner geworden und die Nebenwirkungen können durch Präparate besser unterdrückt werden. Dennoch können aber die Langzeitschäden nicht verleugnet werden und gerade die sind aber das große Problem für die Betroffenen. Die Diagnose Krebs zu erhalten ist für jeden Betroffenen ein schwerer Schlag. Über 40 % derer, die an Krebs erkrankt sind und bis dahin noch berufstätig waren, können nach einer Chemo- oder Strahlentherapie nicht mehr Ihren Beruf ausüben. Die Schädigungen sind teilweise so massiv, dass viele fortan mit starken Schmerzen zu kämpfen haben, wie z.B. Kopfschmerzen, Gelenkschmerzen, Magenschmerzen, um nur einige Folgeerkrankungen zu nennen. Auch neurologische Ausfälle, wie z.B. Vergesslichkeit, Herzrasen, Atemnot, Ängste usw., sind keine Seltenheit. Leider werden den Patienten vor Antritt einer Krebstherapie diese Effekte oftmals verschwiegen. Auch gibt es viele Krebspatienten, die allergisch auf eine Chemotherapie reagieren die Ärzte stellen dies oft erst zu spät oder gar nicht fest. Der Patient wird doppelt bestraft, erst die einschneidende Diagnose und dann die Folgeschäden. Schlimmer ist es für alle die, die als geheilt entlassen wurden, da der Krebs nicht mehr mit den bildgebenden Diagnostikgeräten zu erkennen war, und dann ohne Krebs glücklich in die Zukunft schauen konnten, bis sich dann nach 5 Jahren der Tumor wieder zeigte: Ein Leben zwischen Hoffen und Bangen. Amerikanische und auch andere internationale unabhängige Studien belegen, dass durch den langsamen Wachstum des Tumors meist 5 bis 8 Jahre vergehen können, bis er wiederkommt und dann auch erst wieder erkannt wird. Hierdurch reduzieren sich nicht nur ganz dramatisch die Heilungschancen, sondern auch die Möglichkeiten für eine Folgebehandlung. Eine erneute Chemotherapie ist oftmals wie Öl ins Feuer gießen, häufig wächst der Tumor hernach noch schneller und ist dabei auch noch viel aggressiver als beim ersten Mal. Unter den Erkrankten liegt die Berufsunfähigkeit bei über 90 %, gepaart mit den einhergehenden Folgeerkrankungen. Auch eine Strahlentherapie ist zur Bekämpfung des Tumors häufig wirkungslos, da die stattfindende Erwärmung im Körper zum Aufplatzen der Tumorzellen führen kann, die sich dann im ganzen Körper als Metastasen verbreiten. Es gibt andere Behandlungsmethoden, die hier eingesetzt werden können und die durchaus erfolgversprechend sein können. Leider werden diese Behandlungen meistens von den Krankenkassen nur in Einzelfall-Entscheidungen genehmigt und die Kosten übernommen und dass obwohl bereits Gerichte, hier gibt es verschiedene Einzel- und Grundsatzurteile z.B. vom BGH, BSG und von Oberlandesgerichten, im Sinne des Patienten entschieden haben. Die meisten Menschen müssen die meist umfangreichen Therapiekosten (im Gegensatz zu Chemotherapie-Einheiten aber deutlich günstiger) aus eigener Tasche vorstrecken und versuchen, über den Klageweg um Ihr Recht zu kämpfen. Auch zeigten Studien, dass viele derer, die auf Chemotherapien oder Strahlentherapien verzichtet haben und mit anderen Therapieformen, wie z.B. der Dendritischen Zelltherapie, von Ihrer Krebserkrankung geheilt wurden, doch noch berufstätig bleiben konnten, die Lebensqualität sich nicht verschlechtert hat und auch sie noch weiterhin am normalen Leben teilnehmen konnten. Folgeerkrankungen wurden nicht festgestellt. Für die Volkswirtschaft und auch für die Lebensqualität der Betroffenen ist es einfach besser, nicht stationär behandelt werden zu müssen, weiterhin auch während der Therapie den Beruf ausüben zu können und die Behandlungen ambulant beim vertrauten Facharzt zu erhalten. Auch wäre der Kostenvorteil für die Krankenversicherer (Behandlung und anteilige Erstattung des Arbeitsausfalls) erheblich, denn hier entsteht nur ein Bruchteil der Kosten, die eine Chemotherapie oder Strahlentherapie verursacht. Ohne bleibende Nebenwirkungen die Krebserkrankung zu besiegen, die Lebensqualität beizubehalten und keine Folgeschäden zu erleiden, das sollte das Ziel einer Krebstherapie sein. Eine erfolgversprechende Krebstherapie sollte derart exakt auf den Betroffenen zugeschnitten sein, dass nach dem Grad der Erkrankung der Immunaufbau vorangetrieben wird. Denn nur das eigene Immunsystem ist in der Lage, den Tumor optimal zu bekämpfen. Eine dendritische Zelltherapie mit Immunaufbau ist eine absolut personalisierte Krebstherapie direkt aus dem Blut des Patienten und ohne große Nebenwirkungen.Lassen Sie sich von Fachspezialisten beraten, nutzen Sie das Wissen von Menschen, die seit 2001 die Erfahrungen von vielen Hunderten Behandlungen besitzen. Hintergründe und Fakten Krebs entsteht durch eine Erkrankung des Erbmaterials von Zellen. Krebszellen greifen das Erbmaterial der DNS an und kann bleibende Schäden hinterlassen. Sollte das natürlich Abwehrsystem des Körpers nicht mehr frühzeitig reagieren kommt es zu einem unkontrollierten Wachstum der Zellen und somit zu Mutationen und Metastasen. Der Reparaturmechanismus wird ausgeschaltet und der Tumor kann eigene Blutsysteme installieren und somit sich vom Rest des Körpers unabhängig machen. Eine Tumorerkrankung kommt zu 50% von Umwelteinflüsse, Rauchen, falsche Ernährung, Umweltgifte und vieles mehr. Im Jahre 2015 sind ca. 17 Millionen Menschen an dieser schrecklichen und meist tödlich verlaufenden Erkrankung erkrankt. Die WHO schätzt das bis zum Jahre 2030 weltweit bis zu 25 Millionen Menschen jedes Jahr an Krebs erkranken werden. Der Kampf gegen die Krebserkrankung geht uns alle an, jeden kann es treffen, es gibt keine Ausnahmen. Eine der Therapieformen die immer mehr in den Focus der Öffentlichkeit steht ist die Immuntherapie. Die schon seit Jahren immer mehr das Interesse von Fachärzten und Therapeuten bevorzugt wird ist die dendritische Zelltherapie.

http://www.firmenpresse.de/pressrelease502368.html | Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen Two-thirds of respondents report using POS data to actively manage their business; 77% believe there is room to improve (firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ON -- (Marketwired) -- 10/24/16 -- In today's competitive retail environment, with growing pressure on retailers to get more out of their brick and mortar stores, retail buyers are increasingly looking to product vendors to use shared point of sale (POS) data to help grow retail sales, improve margins and ultimately become trusted category advisors. In fact, according to a new , two-thirds of brands across all product categories reported that they are already actively using POS data to manage their retail business. The new survey conducted by , a provider of retail sales enablement software that empowers brands to grow and optimize their retail business, confirmed that while most brands have started to make the shift to data-driven retailing, there is still much work to be done. To learn more about the findings from the 2016 Point of Sale Data Survey, join Askuity for an exclusive webinar on Thursday, November 3rd at 1:30 p.m. EDT by or download the . Key highlights of the survey include: . From brands that do not use the data at all, to those who have invested in advanced analytics capabilities, there is a wide spectrum of capability when it comes to retail brands and their use of POS data. . When data is managed and distributed by a single power user within the company, brands are far less likely to bring data insights into buyer meetings (41%), versus brands that provide self-service access to POS data for all team members (67%). . 28% of companies say that they are not actively using the POS data being made available to them by their retailers, either due to lack of organizational commitment or lack of organizational capabilities. . Only 35% of companies are equipping their field teams with the data they need, despite the fact that the majority of brands believe that this data is critical to their field team's success. . Spreadsheets and legacy reporting tools are the norm for POS analytics in the industry today; however, there is a significant functionality gap in what these legacy tools can provide and what brands reported as necessary to gain a competitive advantage with POS data. . Brands are optimistic that there is value to be derived from further investments in POS analytics: 77% of brands believe they can be doing more with the data to improve their business. Moreover, brands who consider themselves leaders in the space are even more confident, with 80% believing they can improve. "Today's retailers are being forced to reinvent their business models and drive towards greater store productivity. As a result, they are becoming increasingly dependent on their vendor partners to help them optimize their business and win with the consumer," said Eric Green, CEO of Askuity. "Our survey has confirmed that while most brands have started to make this shift to data-driven retailing, there is still much work to be done. The good news is that forward-thinking retail brands are optimistic about the future and humble enough to recognize this need for improvement. As point of sale analytics becomes a required core competency of every brand hoping to create and sustain success at retail, this desire for continuous improvement will undoubtedly serve the industry well." The , designed to understand just how ready brands are to become partners in helping retailers achieve their key objectives, included nearly 350 respondents representing all major categories from CPG to Electronics to Beauty and more.

Aus diesem Grund veranstaltet die Akademie der Deutschen Medien vom 10. bis 11. November 2016 das Seminar Portfoliomanagement im Verlag Analyse, Optimierung, Umsetzung in Hamburg. Das zweitägige Programm vermittelt den Teilnehmern das notwendige Handwerkszeug, um eine Portfolio-Optimierung erfolgreich umzusetzen. Die Teilnehmer lernen die Methoden kennen, mit deren Hilfe ein Programmportfolio analysiert und optimiert werden kann von der Zahlenanalyse bis hin zum Projektmanagement. Zudem erfahren sie, wie sie die relevanten Aspekte des Portfoliomanagements berücksichtigen und dabei alle Beteiligten mit einbeziehen.Doch nach welchen Kriterien lässt sich das Portfoliomanagement effizient steuern? Wie können Verlage erfolgreich neuen Herausforderungen, wie dem Wegbrechen der Backlist und der Fokussierung auf Spitzentitel, begegnen? Wie strategisch und zahlengetrieben sollte das Portfoliomanagement erfolgen und welchen Einfluss haben Vertrieb und Marketing, wenn das Portfoliomanagement hauptsächlich im Lektorat liegt?Antworten auf diese und weitere Fragen erhalten die Teilnehmer von den Referenten: Ehrhardt F.

Der Notfall ist jeden Tag von 8 bis 19 Uhr geöffnet und bietet 18 Betten an. Pro Jahr sollen in diesem Notfall für geriatrische Medizin 3500 Personen behandelt werden. Zugleich soll damit die Zahl der Notfälle im Hauptgebäude der HUG um 5 Prozent sinken. Bislang wurden drei Viertel der Senioren, die das HUG aufsuchten, jeweils in das auf Altersmedizin spezialisierte Spital überwiesen. Die HUG erhoffen sich deshalb, zahlreiche Überführungen ins acht Kilometer entfernte Spital Trois-Chêne einzusparen. Die HUG schulten vor der Eröffnung des geriatrischen Notfalls auch die Besatzungen der Ambulanzen, damit sie je nach Gesundheitszustand der Patienten selber bestimmen können, wohin ältere Personen gebracht werden. | 2016-10-18 | Erster Notfall für 75-jährige und ältere Patienten in Genf eröffnet | alter, bz basel | Schweiz | Az | Bz Basel | http://static.a-z.ch/__ip/7KesVpeP3aEMQYNLX6ysVxPxvlQ/18b206fdb53c34e065d6e010dffee176dc8f0642/teaser-medium/ein-zimmer-der-neuen-notfallabteilung-fuer-patienten-ab-75-jahren-die-am-dienstag-im-genfer-spital-trois-chne-eingeweiht-wurde- | de | 0.995908 | http://www.bzbasel.ch/schweiz/erster-notfall-fuer-75-jaehrige-und-aeltere-patienten-in-genf-eroeffnet-130651548 | bzbasel.ch | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161018145313-00001.warc.gz | 2016-10-18T15:51:26+00:00 |

BISim first implemented support for the Oculus Rift DK2 in July 2015 with VBS3 v 3.7 and the latest version of VBS3 also continues to support the Oculus Rift DK2. VBS3 v3.9.2 is available for customers to download on BISims website, https://bisimulations.com/support/downloads.Our customers are quickly finding clever ways to use the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive to fill gaps in existing training systems, said Otakar Nieder, senior director of development for Bohemia Interactive Simulations. For example, one customer is using the HTC Vive in existing vehicle simulators to allow crew members to pop out of physical representations of a turret during virtual training scenarios. Another BISim customer who uses a 270-degree dome wanted to provide forward observers with the ability to see a full 360 degrees and decided to use the Oculus Rift, according to Nieder. In addition, BISim has continuously made performance optimizations with every release to improve VBS3 frame rates when using the Rift and the Vive.The Oculus Rift is connected to VBS3 via the Oculus SDK and the HTC Vive is connected to VBS3 via Open VR SDK. BISim plans to continue polishing the user experience with VR goggles in future versions. In addition to these new VR implementations, BISim has introduced other new features in VBS3 v3.9.2. These include the following: New night lighting system - VBS3 now supports dynamic lighting, with thousands of lights rendered out to the maximum draw distance. This allows database generation of accurate runways and marker lights for aviation training. The new point light system supports blinking lights and allows accurate representation of anti-collision tower lights. Lights are affected by weather effects such as fog, rain and snow. Point lights in previously built terrain will automatically use this new technology with no additional configuration. Updated Stryker vehicle models - From our work with the U.S. Armys Games for Training program, we created eight new high definition U.S. Army Stryker vehicles with accurate HUDs, high-fidelity periscope technology with high performance picture-in-picture rendering, and more realistic vehicle access. VBS Radio updates - VBS Radio is now DIS-enabled for networked exercises, and includes support for replaying DIS radio traffic in the VBS3 AAR. VBS Radio also now provides the option to hide the VBS Radio user interface for trainees. Heat haze - A new editor object, that when placed on the terrain, affects vision in the designated area. The intensity of the effect can be altered in the object properties. Windage - BISim has added windage effects that impact ballistics and flares for players and AI units. This feature is turned off by default but can be turned on in the simulation settings. A new script command is also available to turn on bullet trails.VBS3 provides a virtual learning environment for land, air and sea training and mission rehearsal applications. It combines a massive content library, scenario development tools, and after action review capability that immerses trainees in a high-fidelity virtual environment. BISim offers subscription-based developer licenses that allow developers to customize VBS3. Shaped and refined by over 10 years of customer feedback, VBS3 is the de facto standard in game-based military simulation and meets hundreds of training use cases.

"Nach den zuletzt enttäuschenden Leistungen sind wir zu der Entscheidung gekommen, durch einen Wechsel auf der Cheftrainer- Position dem Team neue Impulse zu geben. Wir bedanken uns bei Dieter Hecking ausdrücklich für die hervorragende Arbeit in den vergangenen Jahren und wünschen ihm alles Gute für die Zukunft", erklärte Sportchef Klaus Allofs. Das Training am Montag hatte noch der 52- jährige Hecking geleitet. Für Hecking kam die Entscheidung nicht überraschend. "Natürlich bin ich enttäuscht, aber es gehört als Trainer in diesem Geschäft dazu, dass man mit einer Trennung rechnen muss, wenn die Erfolge ausbleiben. Das war bei uns zuletzt leider der Fall", so Hecking. In der CL erst an Real Madrid gescheitert
Sein größter Erfolg in Wolfsburg war der Cup- Titel 2015 sowie die Vizemeisterschaft im gleichen Jahr hinter Bayern München. Danach sorgten die Wolfsburger auch in der Champions League für Aufsehen, scheiterten 2016 im Viertelfinale an Real Madrid. Anschließend ging es bergab, in der Liga verpassten die Niedersachsen vergangene Saison die internationalen Plätze. 2015 hat Wolfsburg nur 25 Punkte in 24 Spielen geholt. In der aktuellen Saison sind es nach sieben Runden gerade einmal sechs Zähler. Mit Wolfsburg hat sich auch der dritte norddeutsche Bundesliga- Klub von seinem Coach getrennt. Zuletzt hatten in der noch jungen Saison bereits Werder Bremen und der Hamburger SV ihre Übungsleiter Viktor Skripnik und Bruno Labbadia beurlaubt. Vorerst wird der bisherige U23- Trainer Valerien Ismael das Amt des Cheftrainers interimistisch übernehmen.

Gegen Mittag setzte ihr Fassadenlift aus - die Reiniger blieben auf einer Höhe von rund 20 Metern stecken. Da das Areal nicht mit Fahrzeugen befahrbar ist, war eine Rettung weder mit der Autodrehleiter noch mit dem Hubretter möglich. Deshalb wurden die spezialisierten Höhenretter der Berufsfeuerwehr aufgeboten. Nach einer Beurteilung der Lage entschieden sie sich, vom Dach aus den Techniker zum Fassadenlift abzuseilen. Dieser konnte danach die Störung im Lift beheben, wie Schutz & Rettung am Dienstagnachmittag mitteilte. Die beiden Fensterreiniger hatten zuvor zwei Stunden in luftiger Höhe ausgeharrt. Sie blieben unverletzt, waren aber "sichtlich erleichtert, wieder festen Boden unter den Füssen zu haben", schreibt Schutz & Rettung. | 2016-10-18 | Steckengeblieben: Fensterputzer müssen zwei Stunden lang in 20 Meter Höhe ausharren | bz basel, pädagogische hochschule, reinigungspersonal | Zürich | Az | Bz Basel | http://static.a-z.ch/__ip/wfEz1AMkPjhbYo4QzXnHOw3BnT0/9a92248f9813f78d531e510d307b0ae7fd0c9800/remote.adjust.rotate=0&remote.size.w=606&remote.size.h=427&local.crop.h=341&local.crop.w=606&local.crop.x=0&local.crop.y=0&r=1,teaser-medium/gawwawr | de | 0.997284 | http://www.bzbasel.ch/limmattal/zuerich/steckengeblieben-fensterputzer-muessen-zwei-stunden-lang-in-20-meter-hoehe-ausharren-130651471 | bzbasel.ch | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161018145313-00001.warc.gz | 2016-10-18T15:51:27+00:00 |

September nicht betrunken oder anderweitig beeinträchtigt gewesen. Das ergab ein toxikologisches Gutachten, das die Staatsanwaltschaft Klagenfurt in Auftrag gegeben hatte. Behördensprecher Markus Kitz hat dies am Dienstag bestätigt. Ein technisches Gutachten zum Absturz, das ebenfalls die Staatsanwaltschaft in Auftrag gegeben hatte, soll gegen Ende des Jahres vorliegen. Arch war beim Absturz des von ihm gesteuerten Helikopters bei einem nicht erlaubten Nachtstart im Nationalpark Hohe Tauern ums Leben gekommen. Mit an Bord war ein deutscher Hüttenwirt gewesen, der den Crash schwer verletzt überlebte. Der Wirt erklärte später in einem Interview über den Unfallhergang, dass plötzlich eine Felswand im Scheinwerferlicht aufgetaucht sei. Arch habe noch versucht, die Maschine hochzuziehen, doch dafür sei es zu spät gewesen. Er selbst habe dann rund acht Stunden auf seine Rettung gewartet. Er habe kaum atmen können, weil sein Brustkorb eingequetscht war. "Ich dachte, das war es wohl." Arch ist am 11. September im engsten Familienkreis in seinem obersteirischen Heimatort Trofaiach beigesetzt worden, am 17. September wurde dort eine Gedenkfeier veranstaltet, an der rund 1000 Menschen teilnahmen.

Die Verlängerung, die nach spanischen Medienberichten auch mit einer erheblichen Gehaltsaufbesserung einhergehen soll, war bereits im Juli per Vorvertrag vereinbart worden. Der Vertrag mit dem argentinischen Nationalspieler Javier Mascherano wurde unterdessen am Montag bis 2019 verlängert. Mit dem 32- jährigen Defensivmann sei eine Ausstiegsklausel in Höhe von 100 Millionen Euro vereinbart worden, so der Klub.

(firmenpresse) - Gewohnheiten sind mächtig. Sie können in höchste Höhen oder zu fatalen Fehlern führen. Das sieht man deutlich bei Firmen wie VW oder Samsung. Dass Millionen Fahrzeuge oder Smartphones zurückgerufen werden, hat sehr viel mit den dort herrschenden Unternehmenskulturen zu tun. Eine Unternehmenskultur basiert auf all den kleinen und großen Gewohnheiten eines Unternehmens. Und Gewohnheiten sind Handlungen, die unbewusst und automatisch ablaufen. Wenn nicht regelmäßig hinterfragt wird, ob sie tatsächlich noch hilfreich sind, kann es zu Fehlentwicklungen führen, die enorme Verluste nach sich ziehen. Man kann jedoch auch Gewohnheiten sehr bewusst einsetzen, um positiven Change auf Dauer zu etablieren auf individueller und auf Unternehmensebene.In ihrem Vortrag auf der Zukunft Personal 2016 erklärt Elisabeth Pine, wie das geht. Da gibt es zunächst eine Analyse- und dann eine Automatisierungsphase. Gerade die Analyse ist für Unternehmen wichtig.Elisabeth Pine dazu: In der Analysephase wird bestimmt, welche Veränderungen notwendig sind und welchen Zielhafen man genau ansteuern will. Es ist jedoch auch wichtig zu klären, welche Schätze aus dem Ausgangshafen man auf seine Veränderungsreise mitnehmen möchte. Das sind Dinge, die bereits gut funktionieren, die aber schon lange keine Anerkennung mehr erfahren haben. Doch nur, was wir schätzen ist ein Schatz für uns und kann uns weiter dienlich sein.Die Automatisierungsphase macht sich das Wissen zunutze, wie Gewohnheiten überhaupt funktionieren und was sich dabei in unserem Gehirn abspielt. Von diesem Wissen um mächtige Gewohnheiten kann jeder profitieren, beruflich und privat, als Einzelperson oder als Organisation.Am 19. Oktober stellt Elisabeth Pine das Konzept auf der Fachmesse für Personalmanagement in Köln vor. Sie treffen sie vom 18.-20. Oktober an ihrem Stand in Halle 2.2, R39 und bei ihren Vorträgen auf der Aktionsfläche 2.

http://www.thehindu.com/business/markets/rupee-slides-13-paise-to-6681-vs-us-dollar/article9246246.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | The rupee snapped its two-day rise against the US dollar and ended lower by 13 paise at 66.81 on fresh bouts of dollar demand from banks and importers. Heavy capital outflows along with a smart rebound in dollar value in the midst of impending Fed rate hike largely kept rupee under pressure throughout the day. The dollar recouped recent loses helped by bullish comments from one of the most influential officials on the Federal Reserve. However, the overall mood remained fairly calm as investors looked ahead to the European Central Bank’s interest rate decision later in the day alongside eurozone’s monetary guidance. At the Interbank Foreign Exchange (Forex) market, the rupee resumed virtually steady at 66.68 per dollar largely helped by a relatively strong opening of the domestic equity market. But weighed down firm greenback overseas, the home unit immediately started to weaken and kept descending. It touched a fresh intra-day low of 66.8350 in mid-afternoon deals before ending at 66.81, showing a loss of 13 paise or 0.19 per cent. It had appreciated by a good 20 paise in two trading days. In worldwide trade, the American dollar traded with solid strength against all major emerging currencies after the third and final US presidential debate between Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump. The euro was trading near a three-month low against the dollar before an European Central Bank meeting. The dollar index, which measures its broader strength against a basket of currencies, was up at 97.91. The RBI today fixed the reference rate for the dollar at 66.7145 and euro at 73.2125. In cross-currency trades, the rupee recovered mildly against the pound sterling to settle at 81.94 from 81.96 and also regained against the Japanese yen to end at 64.44 as compared to 64.50 per 100 yens on Wednesday. On the other hand, it fell back against the euro and finished at 73.38 from 73.19 earlier. Meanwhile, domestic bourses staged a smart turnaround recouping the overnight losses following heavy buying in rate sensitive counters and also supported by Q2 corporate earnings reports. The benchmark BSE Sensex jumped over 145 points to end at 28,129.84 and broader Nifty rose 40.30 pts to 8,699.40. Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) once again turned sellers and sold shares worth a net Rs 282.77 crore yesterday. In the forward market, premium for dollar remained sluggish on the back of sustained receiving by exporters. The benchmark six-month premium for March dropped to to 151-153 paise from 157-159 paise and the forward-September 2017 contract also slumped to 325-327 paise from 332-334 paise yesterday. Crude prices were softer on Thursday after two-day steep rally on positive comments from Saudi Arabia’s energy minister that the global oil industry would soon exit its two-year funk and prices could rise sharply on a looming supply shortage. Brent crude was down 0.2 per cent at USD 52.55 a barrel. | 2016-10-20 | Rupee slides 13 paise to 66.81 vs US dollar | Markets | PTI | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/03051/RUPEE_20_10_3051517c.jpg | en | 0.956776 | http://www.thehindu.com/business/markets/rupee-slides-13-paise-to-6681-vs-us-dollar/article9246246.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:34+00:00 |

http://www.thehindu.com/sci-tech/energy-and-environment/in-fumechoked-kochi-a-solar-rickshaw-glides-to-the-rescue/article9246255.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | The inventor of an innovative solar chick incubator, solar milking machine and solar-powered boat now has his newest item rolling onto the streets in this southern Indian city: A solar rickshaw taxi. Georgekutty Kariyanappally, the founder of Lifeway Solar Devices Private Ltd., so far has just one prototype operating on the streets, but has supplied another 20 to a nearby tourist resort. In a city where traffic fumes are a worsening problem, the solar rickshaw, Kariyanappally said, is a way of ensuring people don’t have to choose between effective transport and environmental protection. Usually “you have to choose between development or the environment,” he said. “But I have an answer.” Increasing popularity Solar vehicles are not entirely new in Asia. Solar rickshaws are on the road in a number of countries, particularly Thailand; in Cambodia, a solar-adapted auto rickshaw has even become a mobile coffee cart. Earlier this year another Indian engineer drove a solar rickshaw he’d constructed from Bengaluru to the UK. But Kariyanappally, known in Kochi as “Solar Man”, has come up with his own version - just the latest creation in more than 14 years of work on renewable energy innovations, some of it backed financially by the National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development. The fledging solar rickshaw - a three-wheeled, five-seater motorised rickshaw with a solar panel on the roof - has gained a particular public following in Kochi since its launch in August because it is quiet and non-polluting. In a country where more than half a billion people don’t own motorised vehicles and rely instead on hailing taxis - usually auto rickshaws - the invention could have a big impact on air quality, noise, health and climate change, backers say. Altogether more than five million auto rickshaws - favoured because they are cheap, ubiquitous and able to get through narrow lanes - ply India’s roads, according to the Indian Ministry of Surface Transport. Kochi has about 15,000, according to the road transport office in the city. Fresh air “It’s quite similar to an ordinary auto (rickshaw) journey except that I am breathing fresh air instead of polluted air. This gives me immense pleasure,” said Vijayakumari, who recently took a ride in Kariyanappally’s prototype. The solar rickshaw can run up to 80 kilometres a day with six hours of charging, with the range extending to 120 kilometres on a sunny day, Kariyanappally said. Solar rickshaws could potentially find a home in cities such as Mumbai and Kolkata, where their more polluting cousins have been banned, replaced with battery-operated electric rickshaws, backers say. “Think how much carbon would be reduced if all the autos in the city were remodelled as solar autos,” Kariyanappally said. He noted that a switch to solar transport potentially could also net the country carbon credits. Affordability for drivers Some auto rickshaw drivers in Kochi say they're interested in the solar models - but only if they’re affordable and improve incomes for drivers. “Tell me in simple language how could it helpful in my daily life,” said Biji, one driver in Kochi, asked about whether he’d consider a solar vehicle. Like most rickshaw drivers in Kochi, Biju doesn't own his vehicle, but instead rents one for 12 hours a day for 250 rupees ($3.75). He spends another 250 rupees a day on diesel while driving his vehicle 80 to 100 kilometres, he said, and takes home about 500 rupees ($7.50) a day for his work. Ditching diesel costs would be great, he said, but not if it means paying a higher daily rent for a solar taxi. “I am ready to shift from a traditional auto to a solar one. But I should not have to pay more,” he said. Still, he can see other benefits of making the switch. In a city suffering what the National Environmental Engineering Research Institute calls “severe” air pollution, even his own 5-year-old son is struggling with bronchitis, he said. Kariyanappally, the solar vehicle’s inventor, says solar rickshaws need not be more expensive. He believes his invention could be sold for 125,000 rupees (about $1,875), compared to about 200,000 to 250,000 for a traditional new auto rickshaw. Even with drivers saving $3.75 a day in fuel costs, that’s still a steep upfront cost, but emerging green policies in India could lead to the government providing cheaper loans or subsidies for clean transport such as solar auto rickshaws, he believes. Trial version For now, Kariyanappally's invention faces a few barriers - including that his prototype vehicle is technically on the streets illegally, as the Kerala Motor Vehicle Department has not yet recognised solar as a legal vehicle fuel. “We are treating the solar auto service as a trial,” said Sadiq Ali, a Kochi road transport officer. Whether solar taxis will take hold in Kochi remains to be seen, residents say. But for now they’ve driven another innovation: researchers, environmentalists and investors coming to Kochi to have a look, Kariyanappally said.

http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/florida-keys/article109139952.html | New World screwworm flies have now caused the euthanization of nearly 10 percent of the endangered Key deer population — and things could get worse before they get better now that the flies have been found on more than just Big Pine and No Name keys. Entomologists with the U.S. Department of Agriculture said they observed a screwworm-infested Key deer on Summerland Key, and screwworm flies have been found on Big Torch, Middle Torch, Little Torch, Cudjoe and Ramrod keys. That’s the first time agriculture officials confirmed the flies have gone beyond Big Pine and No Name. As of Tuesday, the parasitic larvae had caused the euthanization of 97 Key deer — 67 in the past two weeks — among the 1,000-member herd of Key deer, found only in the Florida Keys. Kate Watts, lead biologist at the National Key Deer Refuge, said the USDA observed the screwworm-infested Key deer on Summerland Key, but that she and other officers at the refuge had not been able to verify infected deer anywhere other than Big Pine and No Name. Screwworm flies lay their eggs in open wounds where larvae hatch and feed, basically eating the deer alive. Many of the deer wounds are believed to come from rutting — males battling each other for mates. USDA entomologists have been trapping and identifying flies in other areas while the release of millions of sterile screwworm flies on Big Pine and No Name to mate with female flies began last week. Female screwworm flies mate only once in their lifetime, storing male sperm to fertilize eggs in the future, so if it mates with a sterile male the life cycle is broken. The process could take six months. Key deer inhabit 20 to 25 islands in the Lower Keys, ranging from No Name and Big Pine Key westward to the Sugarloaf Keys, according to the refuge website. The presence of the parasitic larvae for the first time in 50 years in Key deer, which grow to only about 3 feet tall, prompted the USDA to declare an agricultural emergency on Oct. 3. Watts urged pet owners to continue checking their animals for any wounds they may have, as Proactive pet owners had their cats and dogs inspected for New World screwworm on Sunday at Winn-Dixie on Big Pine Key and none of the 75 pets showed signs of the parasitic larvae, officials said. A pet inspection checkpoint at mile marker 106 in Key Largo remains open. Federal and state officials are inspecting pets for signs of the screwworm. As of Tuesday, 883 pets had been inspected and none were found to have screwworm.

http://www.miamiherald.com/sports/nfl/miami-dolphins/article109146627.html | Reshad Jones is out for the season, according to a league source. The Pro Bowl safety will be placed on injured reserve after tearing his rotator cuff. Jones was diagnosed with the injury earlier in the week but the Dolphins sent him for a second opinion before making a final decision. Apparently, that second look confirmed what the first did. The Dolphins lose much more than their starting safety for the season. They lose arguably their best defensive player. Jones has been one of the league’s best safeties this year, according to Pro Football Focus. Michael Thomas and Isa Abdul-Quddus will presumably be the team’s starting safeties moving forward. Jones has been one of the Dolphins’ most durable players. These will be the first games that he has missed for any reason other than suspension since 2011. | 2016-10-19 | Reshad Jones out for the season with a shoulder injury | dolphins, miami, nfl, reshad, jones, adam, gase | Adam H Beasley abeasley com | Miamiherald | http://www.miamiherald.com/sports/nfl/miami-dolphins/qmnjfh/picture109146622/ALTERNATES/LANDSCAPE_1140/0254%20DOLPHINS%20vs%20Pittsburgh%20Steelers%20101716 | en | 0.979786 | http://www.miamiherald.com/sports/nfl/miami-dolphins/article109146627.html | miamiherald.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161019145314-00002.warc.gz | 2016-10-19T15:57:22+00:00 |

http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/national/article109151262.html | A Virginia man was arrested after a street confrontation in Charleston, SC, in which racial slurs were directed at Steve Crump, a veteran reporter at Charlotte TV station WBTV and maker of award-winning civil rights documentaries. Brian Eybers, 21, is in the Charleston County Detention Center with a Friday court date on charges of disorderly conduct and possession of drug paraphernalia, a glass pipe like that used to smoke crack, police said. Crump said Tuesday that he was in Charleston Oct. 8 to cover Hurricane Matthew. He had completed an interview and was returning to his news van when a man on the street began making an iPad video of him. “He was doing commentary of the neighborhood,” said Crump. “Then he starts off saying, ‘There’s a black guy walking around here, no he’s a slave, no he’s the n-word.’ ” Crump, 59, the great-great grandson of Kentucky slaves who has produced hours of specials for public TV about civil rights in addition to his reporting work for Channel 3, walked up to Eybers and asked him what he’d just said. “I went from zero to 60 like that,” Crump said. “Steve isn’t going to let something like that lie,” said Dennis Milligan, WBTV’s news director. In the video, Crump is heard asking the man to spell the word he was just called. “N as in Nancy, I as in indigo, G as in grant,” he began. After Crump turned to leave, Eybers stood in front of the news van, blocking it from leaving. Crump called police. WBTV photographer Devin Futrelle filmed the confrontation. Police arrived and arrested Eybers. A report by Charleston officer A. Bricker said Eybers admitted calling Crump the racial slur. Eybers, who listed a home address in Arlington, Va., is a guitarist in a band called Face Control. It was not immediately clear what he was doing in Charleston. Mayor apologizes for city John Tecklenburg, the mayor of Charleston, contacted Crump later the day of the incident to apologize on behalf of the city. Tecklenburg was already familiar with what happened – it occurred in front of his mother’s house in the 100 block of Broad Street. Crump said the site of the confrontation also was only about 10 blocks from Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, better known as Mother Emanuel, where nine people were shot to death in a racial killing in 2015. Crump covered that attack and was sent back by WBTV in June to cover the one-year anniversary. “Yet you still have this kind of mentality being carried out where the wounds are very fresh and very real,” said Crump. In 2013, Crump was awarded the Martin Luther King Jr. Medallion, which honors a Charlottean who has worked to promote racial equality and social justice. This year, Crump was honored in Washington as journalist of the year by the National Association of Black Journalists. “You could safely call Steve the leading civil rights reporter in town with his documentaries and daily stories,” Milligan said. Worse than Klan Crump’s documentaries – which have won three regional Emmys – have covered topics ranging from King’s last days to lunch counter sit-ins to the story of Dorothy Counts, who integrated Charlotte schools. Throughout his career, Crump has covered the Ku Klux Klan and interviewed many of its leaders, both wearing hoods and without. “None of them have ever called me the n-word,” he said. “We may not see eye-to-eye on racial issues, but not a single Klansman I’ve interviewed in 35 years of doing this stuff has stooped to this level of vulgarity.” | 2016-10-19 | Man jailed after hurling racial slurs at a TV reporter | hate crime, charleston, n-word, racial slurs, slave, brian eybers, civil rights, video, nabj, klan, crump | Mark Washburn mwashburn com | Miamiherald | http://www.charlotteobserver.com/entertainment/tv/media-scene-blog/sfrcvb-Steve-Crump-confronts-man-who-called-him-the-N-word/ALTERNATES/LANDSCAPE_1140/Steve%20Crump%20confronts%20man%20who%20called%20him%20the%20N-word | en | 0.985924 | http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/national/article109151262.html | miamiherald.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161019145314-00002.warc.gz | 2016-10-19T15:57:19+00:00 |

http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/an-enriching-experience/article9246157.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | Gayathri Girish intelligent structuring of her recital paid rich dividends. Shanmukhananda Sangeetha Sabha in association with the India International Centre organised a Carnatic music vocal concert by the Chennai-based artiste Gayathri Girish at the latter’s auditorium, recently. Armed with a rich repertoire of compositions, the seasoned vocalist in her brief recital of about an hour-and-half delighted the music lovers with her musical talent. Despite her voice not being in a fine fettle that day, Gayathri’s intelligent structuring of the concert by taking up songs of a wide range of composers and interweaving these with her creative talent paid rich dividends and turned out to be an enriching evening of Carnatic music session. Gayathri started her concert in an impressive manner with a popular Adi taal varnam of Patnam Subramania Iyer, “Evari bodhana” in raga Abhogi in two speeds. She then embarked on to take up Swathi Thirunal’s “Deva deva” in the raga Mayamalavagowla, suffixing it with detailed kalpanaswaras which flowed with rich creativity and was indicative of the depth of creative talent even at an early stage of her concert. Ramaswami Sivan’s “Kadaikan vaithennai alamma” in the raga Begada was handled in nice manner. Sensing that it is time to take up a song for a detailed rendition, Gayathri sang Tyagaraja’s “Ennalu urake” in raga Subhapantuvarali. The detailed raga alpana that she prefixed was scintillating and the kalpanaswaras, including the finishing Korvai once again impressed. While singing Papanasam Sivan’s composition ‘Nambikettavar’ in raga Hindolam, Gayathri brought out the emotive content of the lyrics to the fore. Gayathri’s choice of Tyagaraja’s “Sarasasamadana” in raga Kapi Narayani at that stage of her concert seemed to have been a well thought out one which kept the proceedings lively. Gayathri’s central item was Muthuswami Dikshitar’s “Balagopala” in raga Bhairavi, which she sang in a detailed manner in a riveting tempo and doing adequate justice to this item. In an unhurried alpana of the raga, she brought out its features to the fore. She also took up the phrase “Nila nirada sarira dhiratara” from the anupallavi portion of the composition for neraval and sang the same and the subsequent kalpanaswaras in a delightful manner. Gayathri’s short concluding session which included a ragamallika song and a tillanna too was enjoyable. Delhi R. Sridhar on the violin and M.V. Chandersekhar on the mridangam, both Delhi-based artistes, provided good support to Gayathri Girish. | 2016-10-20 | An enriching experience | Venkatesan Srikanth, Gayathri Girish ,arts, culture and entertainment, music, arts, culture and entertainment;Venkatesan Srikanth;Gayathri Girish | Friday Review | Venkatesan Srikanth | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/03051/21DFR_GAYATHRI_GIR_3051466c.jpg | en | 0.934901 | http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/an-enriching-experience/article9246157.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:37+00:00 |
http://www.miamiherald.com/entertainment/article109383152.html | You're sick of the presidential race and the rancorous, endless political debate, bleary and disgusted but unable to tear yourself away from the stream of righteous indignation on your Facebook feed. Which makes this the perfect time to watch a documentary on a theater piece about one of the most divisive and decisive political eras in our nation's history. That, of course, would be "Hamilton," Lin-Manuel Miranda's culture-conquering hit that's used two popular mediums, hip-hop and Broadway musicals, to tell a startlingly hummable history of the little known founding father of the U.S. economic system - and make "Just like my country/I'm young, scrappy and hungry" into a new (or renewed) American motto. Everyone from "Hamilton" obsessives (who can recite the songs chapter and verse - you know who you are) to those who've never fantasized about spending a fortune on the almost unattainable tickets to the Broadway hit will find plenty to love in "Hamilton's America," the PBS Great Performances documentary airing Friday, which kicks off the PBS Arts Fall Festival. The film, created by RadicalMedia, a multi-award winning producer of cultural documentaries (including "What Happened, Miss Simone?" and "Keith Richards: Under the Influence"), goes back several years to when Miranda started creating "Hamilton," shooting the overwhelmed writer in his under-construction apartment, awaiting his first child. "My life is under construction," he says. (Credit RadicalMedia for having the prescience to start filming long before anyone thought an unwritten musical on an obscure historical figure would be a massive success.) Miranda picked up Ron Chernow's biography of Alexander Hamilton for some light vacation reading in 2008, and was unexpectedly inspired. "This is Tupac, this is Biggie... this is my next show," Miranda proclaims. Chernow's understandable reaction is "Really?" President Obama, one of many stellar interviewees, echoes that skepticism as he tells an awestruck Miranda his response after inviting the composer to perform at the White House in 2009. "When you told us “I'm gonna do a rap about Alexander Hamilton,” we said "well, good luck with that"." But artists see things the rest of us don't, and geniuses (Miranda won a MacArthur "Genuis" award, so it's a legit title) transform the way the rest of us see things. "Hamilton's America" tells many stories: about the man at the center of the musical, American history, the show's creation, how we understand history and what it means to be American, about flawed but brilliant politicians and the transformative nature of writing. Much of what we learn in the film fills out the back story of the musical; the startling details of Hamilton's life, for instance, or why the Federalist Papers were important or how dueling worked. But the story unique to the documentary is how the artists, from Miranda to his actors and collaborators, are able to re-imagine history and bring it alive. When you told us “I'm gonna do a rap about Alexander Hamilton,” we said "well, good luck with that." President Obama to Lin-Manuel Miranda Oskar Eustis, the director of New York's Public Theater, where "Hamilton" was developed and staged before it went on to Broadway, even makes a convincing case that Miranda is the equal of Shakespeare as a writer and historical dramatist. The 90 minute film weaves together the story of the show's creation and its odyssey to success, with commentary on history, hip-hop and politics. We get to know Miranda, who comes across as engagingly passionate and genuinely humble. There's an impressively diverse line-up of interviewees, including legendary Broadway composer Stephen Sondheim and President George W. Bush, conservative Speaker of the House Paul Ryan and progressive heroine Senator Elizabeth Warren. This has got to be the only film that includes two (living) Treasury Secretaries, Timothy Geithner and Hank Paulson, and two hip-hop legends, Nas and Questlove of The Roots. "In hip-hop no one can tell you you're wrong, unless the rhymes are wack," Nas tells a grinning Miranda. No wonder he knew he could tell this story. But even more fascinating - at least to anyone who's interested in how artists and theater work - are the interviews with "Hamilton" 's actors. Much has been written about how the show's racially diverse casting expanded our sense of who can claim American history, by having brilliant black actors play the likes of Thomas Jefferson (Daveed Diggs), Aaron Burr (Leslie Odom, Jr.) and George Washington (Christopher Jackson.) But hearing these actors talk about the understanding and dimension they bring to what have become cardboard historical heroes, is fantastically moving. Part of what they do is reconcile themselves to these figures' flaws. One of the film's devices is to take the actors to historical sites: we get Miranda composing in Aaron Burr's bedroom (yes "the room where it happens"), Jackson visiting Washington's home. "Our understanding of history goes awry when we only tell one part of the story," says Jackson, wrestling with - and accepting - the fact of a slave-owning founding father. Political leaders, he helps us understand, don't have to be perfect to change the world. The film's end shows us Miranda at the feet of a statue of Hamilton in New York's Central Park. "I feel like Hamilton reached out and chose me" he says, and we hear the strains from the show's central song "who lives, who dies, who tells your story." By telling Hamilton's story, Miranda opened the way for the rest of us to re-imagine and re-claim America, making the case for bravery and optimism and self-realization against bitterness and terrible odds. Which is a wonderful gift in this particular election year. "Hamilton's America" airs at 9 p.m. on WPBT-Ch. 2, and streams on pbs.org. | 2016-10-20 | Documentary tells the fascinating backstory of ‘Hamilton’ — and even Obama chimes in | hamilton, hamiltons america, lin-manuel miranda, miranda, musical, america, pbs, documentary, radicalmedia, alexander hamilton, broadway, obama, interview, history, politics, great performances | Jordan Levin jlevin com | Miamiherald | http://www.miamiherald.com/entertainment/zhdpw5/picture109383132/ALTERNATES/LANDSCAPE_1140/Hamilton-MirandaCostume_01 | en | 0.957273 | http://www.miamiherald.com/entertainment/article109383152.html | miamiherald.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:31+00:00 |

http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/lest-we-forget/article9246297.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | Hindi cinema has played an important role in stitching the secular fabric of the nation. This is deemed as an era of rationale mind but what is being served today on the social plate is rancour. The circus reveals intellectuals and illiterates are competing in spreading rage and hate with equal vigour. That is why the recent report about actor Nawazuddin Siddique not being allowed to enact a role in the Ramleela in his home town did not come as a surprise. Contrary to stated principles of our Constitution, the vitriolic behaviour highlighted writer Javed Akhtar’s recent lament that “contrarian views are now met with hostility, stifling arena of creativity.” Though clarifications not approving the commotion came from concerned political quarters, musicologist Trinetra Bajpai asserts, “Damage was done by planting seeds of distrust and tearing our tender secular fabric.” Ponder and we find it is secular and pluralistic philosophy that gave us our unique identity apart, of course, our supreme creations of art, literature and culture. Some of the best verses on Lord Krishna were penned by Abdul Rahim Khan-i-Khana, popularly known as poet Rahim. Imagine what joy would have been denied if Rahim, being a Muslim, had been ordered not to write about Krishna, the greatest character in history and literature of the globe. It is our spirit of peaceful co-existence that allowed popular Hindu singers Shankar-Shambhu to enter every Islamic shrine and enliven Ramzan with their magnificent qawwalis. Our pluralist culture allowed Bismillah Khan and his shehnai go unhindered in to the sanctum sanctorum of Vishwanath Temple of Banaras just as roses grown by Hindu farmers of Pushkar have been enhancing the fragrance of Khwaja Moinuddin Chisthi’s shrine in Ajmer. Our secularism allowed, as per historian Ramchandra Guha, “a delicious paradox that can only be Indian” that “the man who best embodied the spirit of the holy Hindu city of Banaras was a Muslim”. That is why the deliberate mischief in numerous cases, akin to one stated above, mock our legacy of brotherhood especially as one of the reasons Ramleelas spread in India was the generous patronage provided by Nawabs of Awadh. Maulana Hasrat Mohani isn’t too well known to youngsters today but scholars remember him as the Haji (a Muslim who has been to Mecca for sacred pilgrimage) who was a devout Krishna scholar and gave us the clarion call of “Inquilaab Zindabad” in 1920. So do we now discard “Inquilaab Zindabad” as a Muslim slogan and term his Krishna verses as blasphemous just because of jingoistic anarchy that reigns in the garb of nationalism today? While the secular contributions enriching the arena of painting, handicrafts, music and textiles are too numerous to elaborate in one article, one shudders the “blessings” we would have been deprived of, if such diktats had been imposed upon the film industry. But for our film makers liberal thought and deed, we wouldn’t have seen our greatest actor Dilip Kumar give credence to Hindu faith and worship with his magnificent temple scenes from “Amar” to “Naya Daur” and “Gopi”. This Punjabi Pathaan, who enacted only one Muslim character on screen in “Mughal-e-Azam”, is solely responsible for giving Indian cinema its abiding symbol of a hero with a heart of gold. Similarly, hats off to V. Shantaram’s vision of communal harmony that gave us the outstanding pre-Partition film “Padosi”. Shantaram has to be commended for his conviction and humanism since he made the Hindu actor Gajanan Jagirdar play the Muslim character Mirza while giving the role of Hindu Thakur to Muslim actor Mazhar Khan! Following Shantaram’s footsteps, many others had guts to portray Ashok Kumar, Manmohan Krishna, Raj Kumar and Sunil Dutt in Muslim roles (“Bahu Begum”, “Dhool Ka Phool”, “Pakeezah” and “Ghazal”) just as Anwar Hussain, Iftekhar, Jayant, Salman Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have brought alive many Hindu and Sikh characters on screen. It is because audiences were tolerant to nuances of delicate situations that creative people like Salim-Javed could write the comical scene of “Sholay” wherein Dharmendra dupes Hema Malini as the voice of a Hindu God! All of us have played such wonderful pranks in our teens but as Akthar sadly opines, similar scenes today could lead to banning of a film or even rioting on streets since people have become too parochial in their outlook! There are numerous examples of diverse number of people enriching the secular film fabric. But one shudders to think what enormous damage could have occurred to the musical gems that are part of folklore as well as our existence today. Quoting just two examples from the rich array of songs would suffice to put in perspective how secularism has given us our greatest gifts. The prayer song “Parwar Digare Alam” from “Hatim Tai” is an enchanting synthesis of Islamic mythology but was written by B. D. Mishra and composed by S. N. Tripathi. But if Hindus could do themselves proud, could Muslims be left behind? Not at all, as proven by soul soothing bhajans “Man Tadpat” and “O Duniya Ke Rakhwale” of “Baiju Bawra” that were created by Shakeel Badayuni-Naushad combine which continue to enthral listeners even after six decades. The common thread between the compositions was Mohammed Rafi who till date has not been surpassed in devotional singing by any singer in the world. Like Kabir, Rafi belongs to everyone and is the finest symbol of our secular foundation, someone whom we dare not classify with any caste, community or religion on account of his overwhelming contribution as a supreme artist and sublime human being. It is this greatness that Mahatma Gandhi propounded and which we need to practice. We all need to connect with each other since insulating ourselves from others’ pain only begets more pain.

http://www.westword.com/music/colorado-music-collective-forges-connections-and-faces-the-challenges-of-denvers-cultural-renaissance-8415015 | Colorado Music Collective Forges Connections and Faces the Challenges of Denver's 'Cultural Renaissance' On Monday, October 3, a motley crew gathered at Syntax Physic Opera for happy-hour drinks and industry talk. But this wasn’t your typical after-work wind-down: It was the ninth installment of the Colorado Music Collective. The room was filled with members of Denver’s independent music community, including bookers, publicists, festival organizers, sound technicians, writers, musicians and, on this night, several students from the Music & Entertainment Industry Studies department at the University of Colorado Denver. In addition to the opportunity to meet other Denverites in the music industry, each monthly meetup puts a guest speaker in the hot seat. This time it was Chase Wessel, talent booker and production manager for Levitt Pavilion Denver, and he tailored his talk mostly to the student audience, describing his circuitous route through various music jobs, including working on Conan O’Brien’s show. Wessel’s advice was to say yes to everything at first and to collect varied hands-on experience, because you never know where it might lead. That same principle of putting yourself out there and meeting people with similar concerns — even without a clear directive — is at work within the CMC. Westword spoke with two community members with extensive résumés: Chris Zacher, CMC founder and executive director of Levitt Pavilion, and Kyle James Hauser, prolific musician and steering committee member. We talked about the group’s goals and Denver’s “cultural renaissance.” Westword: How did CMC get started? Chris Zacher: The Colorado Music Collective was an idea that came to me after an event that we held in November 2014 to engage the local music community in the design of Levitt Pavilion Denver. We invited the community to the Oriental Theater, and it was the first time that I can remember just about everybody from the music community being in the same room at the same time. That wasn’t the first CMC meeting, but it sparked the idea. As founder of the CMC, I’ve worked to engage the music community around important topics that involve artists and industry professionals. How long have you been involved with the CMC? Kyle James Hauser: I joined the steering committee for the CMC in May 2016. Since then, I strive to attend any meetings I’m in town for. How do you pick people/projects to spotlight for the monthly meetups? Zacher: We pick topics that are pertinent to the music community and how they affect musicians and industry professionals. For example, in the spring of 2016 we invited Kendall Smith from the UMS and Scott LaBarbera from the Sunnyside Music Fest to talk about the challenges of producing both large- and small-scale outdoor music events in Denver. Each month, immediately following the CMC meeting, there will be a musicians’ open mic. Integrating the meeting with this open-mic session is going to be fun and hopefully help to create a larger audience. What did you get professionally/personally out of going to CMC meetups? Hauser: It’s always valuable for me to have an opportunity to connect with old friends and new acquaintances in the Colorado music community. Oftentimes when I’m on tour or working at home, my interactions with colleagues are brief and business-oriented. I find it really rewarding to get to spend some social time touching base, checking in and learning more about active members of our scene. The primary focus of my career is building relationships and friendships with like-minded professionals in our community. I feel like it’s the personal connections to one another that create an environment where great things can happen. Taking the time to just “hang” at events like the CMC meetups are a wonderful way to feel more connected to our city and scene. Upcoming Events What do you hope a group like CMC can accomplish, on small and large scales? Zacher: It’s no secret we are in the midst of a cultural renaissance in Denver. It’s been amazing to watch this unfold in less than a decade. We have grown at an unimaginable rate. With this growth, our music community has changed. Our entire arts community has grown. The Colorado Music Collective is part of this growth; it’s a component of the maturation of a music community. We hope to accomplish a few things. First and foremost, provide a learning and networking place where the music community can gather in a non-competitive environment. Second, we are working to advocate for issues that affect the music community, like the City of Denver’s outdoor-sound ordinance. Hauser: I’m very focused on education at the moment and working toward creating multiple platforms and opportunities for musicians of all levels to learn the ins and outs of having a career in music. I believe the CMC, along with many other great statewide programs — including the Music District in Fort Collins and my newest project, Detour — can provide resources to our community and create safe spaces to ask tough questions. I believe if our music community as a whole becomes more savvy to the business side of professional music on a national scale, then we’ll all step up together and build a stronger “middle class” of professional musicians. What do you think is the biggest challenge facing the Denver music community? Zacher: I would say one of the biggest challenges we face as a music community is in how little we pay artists. If we want to be recognized internationally as a music city, we have to rethink how this industry compensates its talent. The artist is the one who drives business, and if we want to grow this industry, we have to understand this. Right now, our artists cannot afford to live in Denver without having multiple jobs. Until we address how we pay them, it is not going to change. If artists cannot afford to hone their craft in Denver, they’ll move on. The Colorado Music Collective's next meeting and musicians' open mic is Tuesday, November 1, at 6 p.m. at Syntax Physic Opera.

http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/homecoming-for-shweta/article9246228.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | The famed child actor, Shweta Basu Prasad who earned recognition for her performance in the 2002 horror-comedy, “Makdee”, is part of the Ekta Kapoor’s historical television drama “Chandra Nandini” on Star Plus. In “Chandra Nandni”, she is essaying the role of Chandragupta Maurya’s wife, Nandni while Rajat Tokas will be Chandragupta Maurya. She will also been seen in Karan Johar produced “Badrinath Ki Dulhaniya” with Varun Dhawan next year. Describing her return on Star Plus with Balaji Telefilms as a “homecoming”, Shweta said, “the word come back here applies in its truest sense”, the actor talks about the serial, her journey so far and her stint behind the camera. Excerpts: Tell us about “Chandra Nandni” and your role in it. I am playing Nandni, Chandragupta Maurya's wife, with whom he had a very estranged relationship. It is about a couple who in no manner wanted to be together, but at the same time, were destined to be together. A perfectly coined term “revenge-hate” drama. They hate each other from the core of their hearts. It is very different from other shows because it focuses on the relationship of Chandragupta and Nandni instead of the achievements of the emperor.The duo will be seen engaging in multiple sword battles trying to fatally wound each other. We have tried our best and hope people will like this twisted and hateful angle of an ancient love story. Any special preparations for the role? An extensive amount of research went into understanding the era, the character, their life, their preferences. The Hindi dialect used today is different from that of the period, so I had to learn that along with the accent. The action sequences required a skilled horse rider, and wielding swords. Getting ready requires heavy make-up along with costumes and jewellery, it takes about two hours or more for that alone. Coming back after a long break how does it feel? Ecstatic and enrapturing. It is an emotionally flooded time, a mix of excitement and nervousness. The stakes during a come-back, are considerably high. People have an impression of the past, of how you were. Sometimes people come to me, and congratulate me, because I won the National Film Award. But the thing is, it was 13 years back. People change, people grow. Things change over time. Now I have a pre-set bar, a certain level expectation to live up-to. It builds on you a kind of pressure that can either compel you to work to your fullest or start to take a toll on you. I hope it is not the latter. Where were you all this time? I took time off after “Iqbal”, to complete my studies. I studied Mass Communication and Journalism and completed my graduation in the same field. As a project assignment I made a short documentary on ‘Dyeing Art of Classical Music’, for which I interviewed AR Rehman and Vishal Bhardwaj. I also co-produced and acted in a short film, ‘Interior Cafe Nights’ with Naseeruddin Shah and Shernaz Patel. I was then a script consultant at Anurag Kashyap's Phantom Films. So, I wasn't really away from the industry. I was working behind the cameras, instead. How was life behind the camera? Working behind the camera teaches you things. The technicalities that go into making films makes you cherish the art more. As an artist you take certain things for granted. Working behind the scenes, you get to know everything, from the tinniest detail in scripts and dialogue to the huge animation effects that films today require. As an actor, one comes in, shoots his role and packs-up. It is the people working behind who sync the dialogues, edit the sequences. It is a demanding job. Personally I feel my calling to be in front of the cameras. Having the experiences of both sides I felt inclined towards acting. | 2016-10-20 | Homecoming for Shweta | Shweta Basu Prasad, Chandra Nandini, Star Plus, Karan Johar, Badrinath Ki Dulhaniya, Varun Dhawan ,arts, culture and entertainment, cinema, television, arts, culture and entertainment;Shweta Basu Prasad;Chandra Nandini;Star Plus;Karan Johar;Badrinath Ki Dulhaniya;Varun Dhawan | Friday Review | Raghav Kukreja | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/03051/26DMC_SHWETA1_3051506c.jpg | en | 0.972654 | http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/homecoming-for-shweta/article9246228.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:38+00:00 |
http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/the-sound-of-tomorrow/article9246168.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | A three-day festival organised by Pracheen Kala Kendra in Chandigarh saw fine vocal and sitar recitals. Chandigarh was not known for its classical music concerts, but gladly that is changing now. Recently, at a three-day festival in the city, it was not just bhangra and “balle balle” but also thumri, tappa, jod and jhala! Set up in 1956, Pracheen Kala Kendra is celebrating its Diamond jubilee by a series of concerts all over India, not just in its centre at Chandigarh. “Legends of Tomorrow”, a three-day festival concentrating on young maestros under the age of 45 featured vocal and sitar recitals. Kathak exponent and the brain behind the Kendra, Shobha Koser, said a festival featuring sarod greats was on the cards too. The venue was the Punjab Government’s Kala Bhawan auditorium. A charming hall, built on the semi-circular design , the hall is ideal for small musical gatherings and plays. The festival started with Banaras gharana vocalist Dr Rita Dev, who is now based in Agra. Rita started with a vilambit ek taal khayal “paiyaan tori laagu” in Aiman Kalyan, followed by “na jaanu kaise preet” in Teen taal. Her spontaneity in reaching the “sam” was an unexpected delight — nowadays artists tend to only present pre-rehearsed pieces. Thumri, however, is clearly her forte, with the emphasis on bhava and her Khamach “saachi kaho mose bateeyan” was beautifully rendered. Rita has a charming stage presence, with a (not so usual nowadays!) participatory generosity extended to her concert accompanists — Ustad Akram Khan on tabla, and Paromita Mukherjee on harmonium, both of whom excelled. Shakir Khan, son and disciple of Ustad Shahid Pervez on sitar lived up to audience expectations, being a sixth generation musician of the famous Imdadkhani gharana. He played Jhinjhoti, a favourite of the gharana, a brief alaap before proceeding straight to four gats in the raga in four different taals. His lightening fast taans, impeccable meends, ultra fast jhala — all thrilled. On tabla was Ustad Akram Khan, who as usual enhanced the overall concert experience. Shakir ended with a Pilu, in which he also played a magnificent gat composed by his grandfather. The next day featured a sitar recital by Adnan Khan from Delhi, representing the Delhi and Kirana gharana. He chose the somewhat more unusual Shudh Kalyan, instead of Aiman Kalyan, in which he presented an elaborate alaap, jod, and ulta jhala. His delicate use of the teevra madhyam and nikhad was aesthetic. The vilambit gat which followed could have been in Madhya laya as the alaap had already covered unfolding the raga extensively. Adnan’s khand-meru taans, gamak, and layakaari were most enjoyable. On tabla was Punjab gharana’s Avirbhav Verma, who also impressed. The next piece was an Afghani dhun popularised by Ustad Rais Khan, which however somewhat failed to captivate. Adnan deservedly got a standing ovation. Dr Meeta Pandit of the Gwalior gharana sang a Gwalior favourite Malgunji, a combination of Bageshwari and Rageshwari. Her bada khayal was in Ada Chautal, which is not so commonly heard these days. Tarana has always been a speciality of her family, and Meeta sang an ultra fast tarana with her customary aplomb. The sawal jawab with Mithilesh Jha on tabla was much appreciated by the audience. Her next item was a short tappa in Khamach, the ever popular “chaal pehchaani”. Tappa is again a Gwalior specialisation and being sung in the Punjab from where it originated was particularly appropriate, as Meeta herself put it. Her mastery on this form was clearly visible. She ended with a somewhat prosaic piece in Pahari. The concluding day featured the talented Arshad Ali of Kirana gharana, accompanied by Ajrara gharana’s, Zaheen Khan and on the sitar Dhruv Bedi, disciple of Pandit Buddhaditya Mukherjee accompanied by Zuhaib Ahmed, again of Ajrara gharana. | 2016-10-20 | The sound of tomorrow | Shailaja Khanna, Pracheen Kala Kendra, Chandigarh, Meeta Pandit ,arts, culture and entertainment, music, arts, culture and entertainment;Shailaja Khanna;Pracheen Kala Kendra;Chandigarh;Meeta Pandit | Friday Review | SHAILAJA KHANNA | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/03051/VMDA_MUSIC_AND_DAN_3051471c.jpg | en | 0.963014 | http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/the-sound-of-tomorrow/article9246168.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:42+00:00 |
http://www.thenewstribune.com/news/nation-world/national/article109622297.html | Wild Thing will have to stay in the bullpen during the World Series. While actor Charlie Sheen, who played Ricky “Wild Thing” Vaughn in the movie “Major League” offered to throw out the ceremonial first pitch before one of this year’s World Series games, Major League Baseball said the choices have already been made. A spokesman told the AP on Friday that MLB has worked with the Indians to identify “former franchise greats” to throw out the first pitch for the games in Cleveland. An announcement is expected early next week. On Thursday, a team official told cleveland.com the Indians were not entertaining the notion of bringing in Sheen. But, the official said, anything is possible, as Major League Baseball is in charge of setting celebrity appearances at World Series games. The Indians host Games 1 and 2 on Tuesday and Wednesday. If necessary, Cleveland will host Games 6 and 7 on Nov. 1-2. There had been a movement by fans on social media for Sheen to throw the first pitch and be part of the pregame festivities. Sheen got wind of the buzz and responded on Twitter, posting a photo of himself as Vaughn in his Indians uniform: Sheen made an appearance during the playoffs at Dodger Stadium on Wednesday when the Chicago Cubs beat Los Angeles in Game 4 of the NL Championship Series. Released in 1989, “Major League” is a fictional account of the Indians finishing in first place with an unconventional group of players including Vaughn, who struggled to find the strike zone and warmed up to “Wild Thing,” a No. 1 hit song in 1966 by The Troggs. The real Cleveland Indians, who overcame injuries to win the AL Central, before knocking off Boston and Toronto in the playoffs, took a page from “Major League” this season. Slugger Mike Napoli and second baseman Jason Kipnis constructed a shrine in an empty clubhouse stall between their lockers like one in the movie. In the film, character Pedro Cerrano practices Voodoo and prays to an idol named, “Jobu” to help him hit curveballs. Like Cerrano, Napoli and Kipnis have their own “Jobu” and have left gifts, including small bottles of rum and cigars, to keep them out of hitting slumps. | 2016-10-21 | ‘Wild Thing’ Charlie Sheen unlikely to get the World Series call | Wild Thing, Charlie Sheen, first pitch, World Series, baseball, Major League, Indians, Cleveland Indians, MLB, Ricky, Rick Vaughn | TOM WITHERS Associated Press | Thenewstribune | http://pics.mcclatchyinteractive.com/news/nation-world/national/bkoj3p/picture109622292/ALTERNATES/LANDSCAPE_1140/NLCS%20Cubs%20Dodgers%20Baseball%20(1) | en | 0.96504 | http://www.thenewstribune.com/news/nation-world/national/article109622297.html | thenewstribune.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161021145316-00004.warc.gz | 2016-10-21T15:31:27+00:00 |

The Ijlas organised under the banner of Seerat Committee was chaired by the Sajjada Nasheen of the Hazrath Khaja Bandanawaz Dargah Sharif Syed Shah Gesudaraz Khusro Hussaini, who is also the member of the AIMPLB, was held on Wednesday night. According to the Chairman of the Kalaburagi Urban Development Authority (KUDA) the meeting was originally scheduled to be chaired by former Minister Qamarul Islam, but due to some unavoidable circumstances he could not attend. However, in a message read out in his absence at the meeting, Mr. Qamarul said the people at large and Muslims in particular should identify the ideology which is working behind the BJP-led NDA government at the centre, which filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court opposing the Triple Talaq and at the same time released a questionnaire in the law commission website. Mr. Qamarul, who is also a member of the AIMPLB and life member of the Majlis e Mashawirat, called upon the community to remain united and stand by the side the AIMPLB in its opposition to the blatant efforts to dilute the Sharia laws. He also announced that a public meeting would be held in Kalaburagi city in the first week of November. This public meeting would be attended by the members of the AIMPLB. Dr. Chulbul in his welcome address said the judiciary and the government should spend their time in disposing of the long list of pending divorce cases in different courts instead of wasting its precious time on the triple talaq issue which is governed by the Sharia. In his presidential address, Dr. Syed Shah Khusro Hussaini urged all sections of the community to stand united in their support to the AIMPLB and donate generously to AIMPLB to fight the case in the Supreme Court. He urged the community members and the organisations to take up awareness programme and convince a section of the women muslim group, which were opposed to triple talaq and make them understand the importance of Sharia law. Mayor of the Kalaburagi Mahanagara Palike Syed Ahmed proposed the vote of thanks. | 2016-10-20 | Group to launch signature campaign in support of ‘triple talaq’ in Kalaburagi | Jamati Mashavarati Ijlas, signature campaign, ‘triple talaq,’ Kalaburagi, Sharia law ,India, Karnataka;Jamati Mashavarati Ijlas;signature campaign;‘triple talaq;’ Kalaburagi;Sharia law | Karnataka | Special Correspondent | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/template/1-0-1/gfx/oghindunew1.jpg | en | 0.9743 | http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/karnataka/group-to-launch-signature-campaign-in-support-of-triple-talaq-in-kalaburagi/article9245732.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:59:21+00:00 |
http://www.thehindu.com/features/cinema/jack-reacher-never-go-back-review/article9246226.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | What starts out as a high-paced exciting action-fuelled film soon unravels to become a family drama. There are 20 Jack Reacher books. Let that sink in for a while. One released every year since 1997 and two in 2010. Lee Child, like his former-military protagonist: Jack Reacher, is a mean machine. As I’ve said before and I will reiterate again, it’s Hollywood’s favourite pastime to make big budget blockbusters out of books, even the mildly successful ones. And they do love their sequels. So when the two come together, it’s a winning formula right? Let’s see how Jack Reacher: Never Go Back fares based on this policy. The second Jack Reacher film (adapted from Child’s 2013 novel of the same name) starts ominously enough with several men lying injured on the road. It turns out, Reacher – played by a middle-aged Tom Cruise – is to blame. It just sets the precedent for the film: suave, self-assured Reacher effortlessly (albeit with a few superficial wounds) saves the day. Cruise, who’s no stranger to the action film genre, looks like the years and effects of being a Scientologist are catching up on him. Nonetheless, he efficiently does what Reacher is supposed to: fight a gang of men, fall from buildings and still remain upright. In Never Go Back, Reacher strikes up a bit of phone romance with his successor at the USAMPC (the Military Police Corps). But when our hero makes his way across the country to DC to see Major Susan Turner (played by a perpetually smouldering Cobie Smulders), she’s been dismissed from her rank on charges of espionage. Like a knight in shining armour, Reacher meddles (despite her blatant refusal of his help) to save his potential love interest. In the meantime, he also comes to know of a paternity claim against him at the Army. Reacher’s got a 15-year-old daughter, Sam (Danika Yarosh) whose character is just plain annoying and inevitably always in trouble. What starts out as a high-paced exciting action-fuelled film soon unravels to become a family drama. So while we’re watching Reacher and Turner, run, run, run, one time too many to get to places (all this without breaking a sweat), there’s a teenager that needs to be rescued. Why? Well because, as his daughter, she automatically becomes a target for the bad guys – who are trying to silence Turner – but have now made Reacher their primary enemy. The film’s primary plotline is supposed to be the uncovering of the secret behind Turner’s false incarceration, but Never Go Back focuses an undue amount of screen time on the budding father-daughter relationship between Reacher and Sam. For her part, Smulders plays a convincing tough army woman, commanding the respect her rank would in real life. Turner is just as agile as Reacher and even demands to be treated equally which is perhaps the one redeeming factor about the film. Like blockbusters are wont to do, this strong, independent woman remains true to her character till the end. And when her subordinates salute her as she walks by, you know director Edward Zwick has done something right. And yet Never Go Back falls short of being a cohesive effort: the action is never exciting enough, the characters are not three-dimensional and even the forced drama doesn’t elicit any empathy from the audience. Those end credits couldn’t have come fast enough. | 2016-10-20 | Jack Reacher- Never Go Back review | Cinema | Deborah Cornelious | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/03051/Jack_reacher_final_3051503c.jpg | en | 0.966121 | http://www.thehindu.com/features/cinema/jack-reacher-never-go-back-review/article9246226.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:43+00:00 |

Für die Familie, Freundinnen und Freunde der beiden Opfer war diese Beerdigung schwer zu verkraften. Der Trauerzug mit den leidgeprüften Eltern, Geschwistern und Großeltern der 25- Jährigen bewegte sich langsam zum Friedhof in Grafenstein bei Klagenfurt. Der Ort grau in grau, wolkenverhangen, herbstlicher Regen. "Ja, auch der Himmel weint", sagte ein Grafensteiner. Diakon Gottfried Riepl, der die ergreifende Zeremonie leitete, fand tröstende Worte für die Trauernden, um ihnen in ihrem Schmerz beizustehen. Es war nicht nur ein Abschied von Claudia und Noah, sondern auch vom ungeborenen Louis, in der Parte "Bauchzwergi" genannt, der im Jänner das Licht der Welt erblicken hätte sollen. Polizist Daniel L.

http://www.emtempo.com.br/recem-chegado-oswaldo-ja-tem-desafio-de-fazer-algo-que-tite-nao-conseguiu/ | Depois de reestrear com vitória no Corinthians, diante do lanterna América-MG, em jogo válido pela 31ª rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro, o técnico Oswaldo de Oliveira já vai encarar o desafio de tentar fazer algo que Tite não conseguiu no clube: levar a equipe à semifinal da Copa do Brasil. O Corinthians precisa de um empate contra o Cruzeiro, no Mineirão, na próxima quarta-feira (19), para avançar à próxima fase do torneio. Na ida, em São Paulo, o time paulista bateu o adversário por 2 a 1 -com Fábio Carille no comando. “A Copa do Brasil é uma situação completamente diferente. Temos um intervalo muito curto de recuperação. É a viagem e um adversário que precisa reverter um marcador adverso. São ingredientes suficientes para dificultar a partida. Nós vamos dar muita atenção à recuperação dos jogadores para nós conseguirmos voltar classificados”, afirmou Oswaldo neste domingo (16). Embora já tenha conquistado a Copa do Brasil em três oportunidades (1995, 2002 e 2009) e chegado a outras duas finais (2001 e 2008), o time alvinegro não consegue passar das quartas de final há sete anos, quando se sagrou campeão da competição pela última vez, com Ronaldo no elenco e Mano Menezes de treinador. De 2010 a 2012, o Corinthians não disputou a Copa do Brasil por estar na Libertadores. Com a mudança de regulamento, a equipe voltou a jogar o torneio em 2013 e, desde então, o desempenho deixa a desejar. Naquele ano, ainda sob o comando de Tite, o clube foi eliminado nas quartas de final pelo Grêmio nos pênaltis -disputa que ficou marcada pela polêmica cobrança de Alexandre Pato. Por causa da batida, o clima ficou insustentável para o atacante no clube e, meses depois, ele foi envolvido em uma troca com Jadson, até então, atleta do São Paulo. Após muitas especulações, Pato se transferiu em definitivo para o Villarreal na atual temporada. Já em 2014, com Mano Menezes no comando e Guerrero em grande fase, o Corinthians fez 2 a 0 no Atlético-MG de Levir Culpi em Itaquera. Na volta, no Mineirão, o peruano chegou a colocar o time paulista em vantagem, mas a equipe levou a virada, perdeu por 4 a 1 e deu adeus ao torneio novamente nas quartas de final. O Atlético-MG ainda conquistaria o título sobre o arquirrival Cruzeiro. Curiosamente, em 2016, Mano, Mineirão e Corinthians voltam a se reencontrar nas quartas de final da Copa do Brasil. No entanto, o técnico gaúcho agora dirige o Cruzeiro. No ano passado, novamente com Tite, o Corinthians foi campeão do Brasileiro com sobras, mas, na Copa do Brasil, o time não foi além das oitavas de final. Na oportunidade, a equipe foi derrotada duas vezes pelo Santos (2 a 0 e 1 a 2). Para evitar um novo tropeço e chegar às semifinais da competição, Oswaldo aposta no equilíbrio coletivo, apesar de estar há pouco tempo à frente do elenco. “Tinha muita esta preocupação com o equilíbrio coletivo. Enfatizei bastante isso nas nossas reuniões e treinamentos. O jogador precisa ser participativo e colaborador. E eu vi isso em todos os jogadores em todos os minutos [no domingo contra o América-MG]. Isso me deixa particularmente muito feliz”, finalizou o treinador.

http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/a-raga-is-a-living-being-kishora-amonkar/article9246298.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | In a conversation with Manjari Sinha, Vidushi Kishori Amonkar gives us an insight into her musical universe. The name of Gaan-Saraswati Kishori Amonkar still pulls thousands, who would come from far and wait for her with all their patience to relish her soul-stirring voice. The reason for this magnetic attraction is simple. The octogenarian vocalist still offers her refreshingly aesthetic and blissful music, quickening the raga with the essence of her own being. It was raga Bageshri this time, at the recently held SPIC MACAY’s Music in the Park concert in New Delhi, that was delineated leisurely in the most unconventional and creatively imaginative manner. The raga did have all its grammatically correct, time tested notes, but it sounded as if dressed in a new attire designed in an innovative and insightful way. She solves the mystery of her singular approach to the delineation of a raga and many more queries that come to the mind of her admirers in a candid conversation next day in her hotel room after returning from her usual and a must visit to the Raghavendra Swamy Mutt, the abode of her spiritual Guru. Talking about her approach to a raga, she explains, "Music is the most abstract subject on earth and the raga is limitless. The space in between two swaras of a raga comprises a whole universe of emotions and feelings. A raga has limitless potential to express these myriad feelings. One has to study that wholeheartedly with complete dedication. This is why sadhana becomes indispensable. It enables you to make the most of this potential of a raga. You have to not only practice but cultivate a close relationship with the swaras of a raga, like you nurture your friendship with spending time together, talking and taking care of each other’s feelings, sharing the joys and sorrows. A raga is also a living being, make friends with it and express it with care and feeling, in the way it deserves to be elaborated." Just like there are many shades of love, Amonkar says, there are many shades of a swara too. "Bhoop, Shuddh-Kalyan and Deshkar sound like similar ragas, but the Gandhar of Bhoop is different from the Gandhar of Shuddh Kalyan and Deshkar. It’s challenging to find the accurate place of a particular swara, because it is simply slippery. The universe of swara is without any beginning or end. It is limitless, immeasurable. I try to find feelings and emotions through these swaras and express them." Then there are lyrics, the bols of the bandish. In case of the Bageshri that she presented the other day, Amonkar reflects that the composition went “Kaun Gat bhai mori….. ek bana dhundhi, sakal bana dhun dhun, daar-daar, paat-paat….” “Radha is pining for her beloved Krishna, searching for him all over the forest, checking each and every branch and leaf of trees. She shares her predicament with her friend, ‘look at my miserable state! Please help me find him.’ She is desperately searching for him but has not lost hope as yet. This ray of hope is echoed in the sensitive touch of ‘Pancham’. I keep exploring the intensity of these feelings with various permutations and combinations of swaras.” Raga has become a cliché these days. "I don’t believe in vadi-samvadi (supposedly the most important and the second important note of a raga) and the hackneyed pakad (the defining bunch of notes that help recognise a raga). In fact, there are eleven ‘lakshanas’ of a raga stated in our treatise that create the atmosphere of raga. I question, why follow only "ma pa dha, ga re sa…", why can’t I go to Dhaivat straight away from Rishabh, or from Gandhar or Madhyam? I try to explore the different hues of expressions, flavours of feelings with the imaginative use of swaras according to my own intuition." Alaapi is the most crucial part of singing or playing a raga which should or could be elaborated for hours. "The only point to be taken care of is that it should be done properly and without repetition. The tragedy prevalent these days is that the alaapi is dispensed with in a few minutes and the performance proceeds towards the thrill of the rhythmic aspect catered by the accompaniment of percussion instruments. One should remember that music is not for excitement or clap." She doesn’t seem to be happy with the present day music education in the universities. Students with degrees like M. Phil and Ph.D. in music don’t even know how to tune the tanpura or how to do riyaaz. “One of the M.Phil students from the Delhi University came to me and asked the proper way to do riyaaz. I believe it is the responsibility of teachers to guide them. ‘Guru bin kaun batave baat’ who will show you to correct path without the Guru (teacher)?” In fact, the present day teaching method itself is questionable. She reiterates, “I believe that Indian subjects like music should be taught in Indian way, and not by Western method. When my mother taught me a raga, it was also about knowing the theory. As a matter of fact theory is not different than what we practice. Music, in fact, should be taught from an early age. If the spark ignites in even one child amongst a thousand, the effort is worth it. Once they start appreciating music or any classical art, they start thinking for themselves. ‘What am I doing and what is expected of me’. This will gradually change the thinking of the society and the nation to a positive direction.” In reply to why she is known to be temperamental, unpredictable, reclusive, even intimidating, she counters, “How can a person, who is trying to bequeath peace through his or her art, can be bad? My mother used to say do something good for others before you die and I’m trying my best to do just that. In fact, people don’t understand the meaning of generosity, benevolence and compassion. As far as my reclusive nature is concerned, I speak only with ‘his’ (her spiritual Guru’s) desire. If he does not like me to speak, I don’t.” On whether she likes to listen to film or popular songs also, her prompt response comes as a pleasant surprise. “I not only listen to, but also like the good ones. A recent Punjabi song ‘Main tenu samjhawan ki…’ comes to mind. Whosoever is the singer, he has sung it really well. ‘Ga re sa’ and ‘dha pa ma’ are the most difficult notes of the song, but he has sung them with perfect accuracy. I had nothing to do with the words or language of the song but the raga and the composition attracted me.” She assesses her own music quite objectively. “I am the cruellest critic of my music but there are also moments when I’m ecstatic on getting the desired result of my efforts.” As we conclude, she humbly admits that she doesn’t have any wish to be fulfilled or aspiration for any award at this point of time after receiving the ‘Gaan-Saraswati’ by none other than the Shankaracharya. “No award can be higher than this and I feel responsible to prove it. Just because of this title, Saraswati, the Goddess of learning, is always with me.” | 2016-10-20 | ‘A raga is a living being’: Kishora Amonkar | Manjari Sinha, Vidushi Kishori Amonkar ,arts, culture and entertainment, music, arts, culture and entertainment;Manjari Sinha;Vidushi Kishori Amonkar | Friday Review | Manjari Sinha | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/03051/21DFRINDIAN_CLASSI_3051559c.jpg | en | 0.961836 | http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/a-raga-is-a-living-being-kishora-amonkar/article9246298.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:58:33+00:00 |
http://www.thehindu.com/features/friday-review/what-reality-are-you-creating-for-yourself/article9246229.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | Corporate speaker, author and entrepreneur, Issac Lidsky’s powerful and touching talk gives Sudhamahi Regunathan points to ponder. Isaac Lidsky reiterates what philosophy had declared enigmatically when he says, “Sight is an illusion…to create the experience of sight, your brain references your conceptual understanding of the world, other knowledge, your memories, opinions, emotions, mental attention. All of these things and far more are linked in your brain to your sight. These linkages work both ways, and usually occur subconsciously. So for example, what you see impacts how you feel, and the way you feel can literally change what you see. Numerous studies demonstrate this. If you are asked to estimate the walking speed of a man in a video, for example, your answer will be different if you're told to think about cheetahs or turtles... We have arrived at a fundamental contradiction. What you see is a complex mental construction of your own making, but you experience it passively as a direct representation of the world around you. You create your own reality, and you believe it.” Who is Isaac Lidsky? One answer is that he runs a big construction company in Florida. Another answer is that he graduated from Harvard in math and computer science. But there is more to him. Lidsky goes on to say, “…sight is just one way we shape our reality. We create our own realities in many other ways. Let's take fear as one example. Your fears distort your reality. Under the warped logic of fear, anything is better than the uncertain. Fear fills the void at all costs, passing off what you dread for what you know, offering up the worst in place of the ambiguous, substituting assumption for reason…Fear replaces the unknown with the awful. Now, fear is self-realizing. When you face the greatest need to look outside yourself and think critically, fear beats a retreat deep inside your mind, shrinking and distorting your view, drowning your capacity for critical thought with a flood of disruptive emotions. When you face a compelling opportunity to take action, fear lulls you into inaction, enticing you to passively watch its prophecies fulfil themselves.” Lidsky says that to live life realistically without falling into the above traps can be learnt. And he gives some tips, “Hold yourself accountable for every moment, every thought, every detail. See beyond your fears. Recognize your assumptions. Harness your internal strength. Silence your internal critic. Correct your misconceptions about luck and about success. Accept your strengths and your weaknesses, and understand the difference…Your fears, your critics, your heroes, your villains — they are your excuses, rationalisations, shortcuts, justifications, your surrender…they are fictions you perceive as reality. Choose to let them go…” Lidsky points out that our lives are full of assumptions, “We make assumptions and faulty leaps of logic. We harbour bias. We know that we are right, and they are wrong. We fear the worst. We strive for unattainable perfection. We tell ourselves what we can and cannot do...” When Lidsky went completely blind at the age of 25 due to a rare genetic disease, he did not listen to his fears telling him that his life had ended and that from now on it would be a quiet, anonymous and lonely struggle. He instead learnt, “…that what we see is not universal truth. It is not objective reality. What we see is a unique, personal, virtual reality that is masterfully constructed by our brain…I chose to step out of fear's tunnel into terrain uncharted and undefined. I chose to build there a blessed life…I share my beautiful life with Dorothy, my beautiful wife…” Lidsky and Dorothy have triplets and a baby daughter. Therefore it is that Lidsky spoke about reality and the illusions we create for ourselves. He asks. “What do you fear? What lies do you tell yourself? In your career and personal life, in your relationships, and in your heart and soul, your assumptions do you great harm. They exact a toll in missed opportunities and unrealized potential, and they engender insecurity and distrust where you seek fulfilment and connection. I urge you to search them out.” A powerful and touching talk.

http://www.bzbasel.ch/solothurn/kanton-solothurn/zahlreiche-einbrueche-gemeldet-polizei-erhoeht-praesenz-130649291 | Die unbekannten Einbrecher drangen in Ein-und Mehrfamilienhäuser und Geschäftsliegenschaften ein, wie aus einer Mitteilung der Kantonspolizei Solothurn hervorgeht. «Sie sind in der Regel bandenmässig organisiert und dringen zu jeder Tages- und Nachtzeit in die Objekte ein.» Von den Einbrüchen der letzten Tage (die Einbrüche häuften sich ab letzten Donnerstag) waren vor allem die Regionen Gäu, Olten und Gösgen betroffen. Auf Anfrage benennt die Kantonspolizei Solothurn die «Hotspots» mit Stadt Olten, Trimbach, Oensingen und Niedergösgen. Auch im Westen des Kantons gab es vereinzelte Einbrüche. Mit der bevorstehenden Umstellung auf die Winterzeit steige die Zahl der Einbrüche erfahrungsgemäss in der frühen Dämmerung, warnt die Polizei. Die Kantonspolizei habe deshalb ihre Präsenz durch vermehrte Patrouillentätigkeit in den betroffenen Gebieten erhöht. Aber auch die Bevölkerung kann helfen. «Durch erhöhte Aufmerksamkeit, richtiges Verhalten und geeignete Massnahmen könnten Einbrüche reduziert werden», so die Polizei. (ldu) So schützen Sie sich Stellen Sie sicher, dass Türen und Fenster immer geschlossen sind, wenn Sie nicht zu Hause sind. Auch in Garagen und Nebenräumen. Vermitteln Sie den Eindruck, dass Sie zu Hause sind. In der Regel scheuen Einbrecher das Licht. Gute Dienste leisten Bewegungsmelder, welche beim Betreten des Grundstückes eine Lichtquelle aktivieren. Signalisieren Sie zusätzlich Anwesenheit mit Zeitschaltuhren. Verhindern Sie wenn möglich, den direkten Einblick in den Wohnbereich. Kommunizieren Sie Ihre Abwesenheit nicht durch Notizen an der Eingangstüre, durch Abwesenheitsnachrichten auf dem Telefonbeantworter oder Statusmeldungen und Ferienfotos via «Facebook» und «Twitter». Auch überfüllte Briefkästen deuten auf Ferienabwesenheit hin. Suchen Sie Nachbarschaftshilfe! Orientieren Sie diese, wenn Sie in die Ferien reisen. Offerieren Sie ihm Ihren Autoabstellplatz. Dies signalisiert Anwesenheit. Schlüsselverstecke unter Türvorlegern, im Milchkasten, im Blumentopf oder an einem sonst leicht zugänglichen Ort kennen auch die Einbrecher. Ersetzen Sie alte Fenstergriffe durch abschliessbare (es ist nur eine kleine Investition und die Montage braucht keinen Handwerker). Benachrichtigen Sie lieber einmal zu viel als zu wenig, über Telefon 112 oder 117, die Polizei, besonders wenn: - sich unbekannte Personen, auch tagsüber, in verdächtiger Weise bei Ihrem Haus, in der Nachbarschaft oder im Quartier aufhalten. - sich Fahrzeuge (besonders mit ausländischen Kontrollschildern) auffällig langsam durch Ihr Quartier bewegen oder parkiert sind. unüblicher Lärm oder Geräusche in Ihrem Haus oder aus der Nachbarschaft hörbar sind (z.B. einmaliges kurzes Glasklirren). | 2016-10-17 | Zahlreiche Einbrüche gemeldet – Polizei erhöht Präsenz | bz basel, einbruch | Kanton (Solothurn) | Az | Bz Basel | http://static.a-z.ch/__ip/x9-1yPCnYc5n_0x_9NQkKz8WVho/3ad39743d7d7cd4ff4d1ae653611cad2d9f7b819/remote.adjust.rotate=0&remote.size.w=1280&remote.size.h=815&local.crop.h=815&local.crop.w=1280&local.crop.x=0&local.crop.y=0&r=0,teaser-medium/der-einbruch-ins-einfamilienhaus-gelingt-mehmet-yldirim-und-einem-weiteren-jugendlichen-nicht-weil-der-nachbar-die-polizei-alarmiert-symbolbild--key | de | 0.996542 | http://www.bzbasel.ch/solothurn/kanton-solothurn/zahlreiche-einbrueche-gemeldet-polizei-erhoeht-praesenz-130649291 | bzbasel.ch | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161017145313-00000.warc.gz | 2016-10-17T15:39:23+00:00 |

TWITTER / @NintendoAmerica El gadget fue recibido con poco interés por los inversores y analistas japoneses TOKIO, JAPÓN (/21/OCT/2016) .- La presentación de la nueva consola de juegos Switch de Nintendo, un modelo híbrido que puede llevarse a cualquier parte, fue recibida el viernes con poco interés por los inversores y analistas japoneses. La Bolsa de Tokio cerró este viernes con una caída de la acción de este pionero japonés en videojuegos, que perdió 6.5%, al día siguiente de un video de lanzamiento del "concepto totalmente nuevo" de la Switch, antes conocida con el nombre pasajero NX. La consola de salón puede separarse de su base y así ser llevada a cualquier lado. La parte amovible se parece bastante a la tableta de la máquina anterior, la Wii U, esta vez con joysticks de ambos lados que pueden retirarse. "Es una consola de salón que además puede sacarse afuera y así responde a varias situaciones. En síntesis, una consola de varias caras. Pero, por otro lado, ¿es esta la razón de su precio y de su vínculo con los teléfonos inteligentes", comentó en su cuenta Twitter uno de los mejores especialistas del sector, Hirokazu Hamamura, dirigente de la editorial Kadokawa. Con un concepto "híbrido", Nintendo no compite directamente con la PlayStation 4 de Sony, una máquina de salón muy potente y con múltiples funciones multimedia. Se instala más bien entre la PS4 y el juego para los teléfonos inteligentes, lo que justamente puede parecer arriesgado a ojos de los accionistas que esperaban otra cosa. "Todo el mundo se excita actualmente con la realidad virtual que propone sobre todo Sony y, de lo que vimos en el video de ayer, no hay funciones revolucionarias", comentó un analista de Iwai Cosmo Securities al portal de informaciones del grupo Nikkei. "Nintendo no sorprendió y no rompió con lo que se venía haciendo como lo hizo en su tiempo con el anuncio de la consola Wii. Sin embargo, pensamos que se corrigieron algunos vacíos de la Wii U, versión posterior que no encontró a su público", comentó en una nota la analista de Nomura, la casa especializada en entretenimiento, Junko Yamamura. "No hubo informaciones sobre la estrategia de los juegos en línea", lamentó. Nintendo y DeNA, especialista de las plataformas de entretenimiento para celulares, trabajan juntos sobre las aplicaciones para la telefonía móvil, un sector durante mucho tiempo ignorado por Nintendo, aunque últimamente haya habido algunos avances notables con la creación de un juego Super Mario específicamente para iPhones y tabletas iPad de Apple. La línea de juegos para la Switch será un elemento crucial y, según la lista de estudios desarrolladores citados, la biblioteca de programas parece a priori atractiva. La presentación difundida por internet permitió divisar imágenes de algunas de las sagas ineludibles de Nintendo: "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of Fire", que ya había sido anunciado, así como imágenes de producciones como "Super Mario", "Mario Kart" y "Splatoon". Las especificaciones técnicas de la Switch, que será comercializada en marzo de 2017, no fueron reveladas. La decepción de la primera hora quizás no sea definitiva, y las aclaraciones posteriores de la casa madre de Pikachu podrían tranquilizar a los analistas. En las redes sociales, los jugadores se alegraron de poder ver al fin cómo es el objeto prometido y se mostraron impacientes por manipularlo. Esta consola debería ser un éxito para Nintendo, que sufre desde hace años la competencia de los celulares y cuyos ingresos se dividieron por cuatro desde los mejores lanzamientos de la firma centenaria de Kioto en 2008/2009.

http://www.thehindu.com/features/metroplus/how-youngsters-can-save-right-from-their-first-job/article9245609.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | Making a case for youngsters needing to save right from their first salary “Congratulations Shilpa! So you’ve landed yourself your first job. Time to start thinking about saving for the future.” “What? Already? I haven’t even got my first salary yet!” This is a familiar exchange with parents despairing that their children have no idea of what it takes to save for their future. In India, more than half the population is below 25 years of age, while over 65 per cent are below 35. By 2020, the estimated average age of an Indian will be 29 years. Four to five million new professionals below 25 years of age join the workforce every year. However, the unfortunate reality is that young Indians are likely to face problems meeting their financial needs as they get older. India does not have a social security plan or an old-age financial support system. Saving and financial planning are nearly as important as doing well in one’s job. There are three fundamental principles that impact one’s money. Power of compounding: Start saving early. Save something every month — even as little as Rs.1000 — from your first salary. Ideally, it should be at least 8-10 per cent of the take-home pay. Slowly increase it to the maximum you can afford. Put away the money you want to save before you use the rest. Over time, this translates to significant returns on your initial investment. See how incredibly powerful compounding can be. Consider two friends; Ajay and Vijay. When Ajay was 25, he invested Rs. 15,000 at 5.5 per cent rate of interest compounded annually. At age 50, Ajay would have Rs. 57,200.89 in his account without adding anything to his initial investment. Vijay did not start investing until the age of 35 when he invested Rs. 15,000 at the same rate of interest compounded annually. At age 50 he will have only Rs. 33,487.15. Ajay earned a total interest of Rs. 42, 200.89 whereas Vijay earned only Rs. 18,487.15. This was not just because Ajay accumulated more interest but because this accumulated interest was itself accruing more interest. His money was working for him even as it lay in his account. If Ajay had deposited Rs. 15,000 every year, at the same compound rate of interest, the effect would be almost magical. Inflation: Your money loses value over time due to inflation. A thousand rupees invested at the beginning of a year may be worth only Rs. 930 at the end of the year, when adjusted for inflation at, say, seven per cent. This is effectively a decrease in the time value of money. Your choice of investments should try to beat inflation. Risk: A bank deposit is usually considered safe whereas shares are considered risky. The younger you are, the greater the ability to withstand risk. Stocks and mutual funds give good returns but the risks can be overcome if one invests systematically and for the long-term. A lot of how you save depends on where you live and work, if you are living with family or on your own... However, there are some broad guidelines: Savings: Start saving early. If you live at home and don’t have to contribute to expenses,you should be able to save at least 25 per cent of your salary. If you paying live alone, inculcate financial discipline by saving before spending on luxuries or unnecessary purchases. Additionally, start building an Emergency Fund by putting aside a small portion of your salary every month. This should go into a fixed deposit, preferably in a Recurring Deposit. This should accumulate enough money to cover your routine expenses and lifestyle for at least four to six months in the event of a family emergency orb loss. Open a PPF account at the earliest. It is considered to be among the most tax efficient instruments in India. The minimum deposit is Rs. 500 every year and interest earned on deposits are not taxable. Insurance: Buy a Term Life Insurance Plan for a sum of, say, Rs. 50 lakhs or even one crore. The earlier you take it the cheaper it is. It is wise to take a Health Insurance Plan even if your company provides for it. It will take care of unforeseen health issues. In addition, it also provides tax benefits. Investments: After this, it’s time to consider investments. Younger persons can allocate a larger chunk of their savings into investments; more so in equities. Equity Linked Savings Schemes (ELSS) is a type of diversified equity mutual fund that qualifies for tax exemption. It offers the twin advantage of capital appreciation and tax benefits even though it has a lock-in period of three years. Systematic Investment Plan in a reputed large cap equity Mutual Fund. These should be long-term since it addresses the issue of market fluctuations in the long run. Remember, insurance policies are not investments. Credit Cards: Use these judiciously. Beware of making part payments and building up debt. Interest rates are exceptionally high and can eat into your savings. Use the card wisely and make regular full payments well before the due date. If you get started with these recommendations within the first year of your first job, you would have done well. | 2016-10-20 | How youngsters can save right from their first job | Saving, money, youth, recurring deposit, equity, mutual funds, insurance, compound interest,economy, business and finance, finance (general), financial and business service, insurance, personal finance, personal investing;Saving;money;youth;recurring deposit;equity;mutual funds;insurance;compound interest | Metroplus | Chitra Andrade | The Hindu | http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/03051/CM-SAVING2_3051333c.jpg | en | 0.965745 | http://www.thehindu.com/features/metroplus/how-youngsters-can-save-right-from-their-first-job/article9245609.ece?utm_source=RSS_Feed&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication | thehindu.com | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161020145315-00003.warc.gz | 2016-10-20T15:59:20+00:00 |
http://www.heraldonline.com/news/local/community/lake-wylie-pilot/article108723927.html | It’s a question that’s come up in public park forums. A heated dispute elsewhere in Lake Wylie begs it be asked. Whose park will it be? The land is the easy part. Tom Smith, then a member of York County Council, worked with landowner Crescent Resources in 2007 on a 2,300-acre rezoning. The goal was to move commercial and large construction off the lake. The agreement involved a 50-acre donation from Crescent to the county along Crowders Creek, near the now Tullamore subdivision. Smith and others envisioned a park there. A separate 18-acre donation beside it was intended for county utility needs, as Council was looking to purchase Carolina Water Service. Those 68 acres still belong to York County. Lake Wylie voters will decide Nov. 8 whether to approve a special recreation tax district to build ballfields and amenities there. The county doesn’t have or want its own recreation department, which is how the tax district idea arose. Council members weren’t interested in funding a facility on county property that couldn’t pay for itself. “The tax district, that’s what really makes this plan viable,” Smith said. Smith, now a committee member working toward a new park, didn’t see the ideas from almost a decade ago taking this long. But he and other park planners needed a gameplan that works. “Then came, how do we pay for it?” he said. “That’s what we’ve been struggling with and working toward.” In July, York County Council certified the petition to put a Lake Wylie recreation tax decision to voters Nov. 8. A special tax district paying for the park answers another ownership question. But who gets to use the park? “Once it’s open, it’s open for public use,” said Ron Domurat, park committee chairman. Yet how the proposed park is used raises another question. By county ordinance, the tax district comes with a new board to set its millage rate and oversee park operations and funding. Five residents within the district will be chosen. Many answers given by the park committee now on how the park operates are best estimations. Ultimately, the tax district board will decide. Perry Johnston understands the tax board setup well. Along with being a park committee member, Johnston is a board member with Bethel Volunteer Fire Department, which is embroiled with its own special tax board now over operational control issues. Top on the list is a paid fire chief, which the board wants but volunteers don’t. Johnston sees distinct differences in the current fire and proposed recreation tax boards. “This board will be given sole responsibility for finance and operation of a new grassroots recreational district,” he said of the proposal. “The Bethel fire tax board was given control, by ordinance, of an existing 50-year-old fire department who already had been given control of the same fire district by York County.” While park committee members are affiliated with Lake Wylie Athletic Association, they say it isn’t the intent for LWAA to control or run the park. They will apply and pay for field time through a reservation system, like anyone else. “The tax board for this park will be appointed from taxpayers from this tax area and be given the complete task for the full finance and operation of the facility,” Johnston said. “I am sure there will be subcommittees established and paid staff to schedule activities appropriately, however all will be under the direct supervision and control of the tax board.” The only requirements of the tax board would be final budget reviews by Council and enough outside tournament play to warrant the roughly 25 percent of overall park funding coming from the county hospitality tax, aimed at generating tourism. “Since some of the park funding is from the hospitality tax the park must hold tournaments and other functions that will generate tourism,” Johnston said. “The park tax board will be given the task that approximately 25 percent of the weekends will be set aside for the sole purpose of tournaments.” The park committee sees facility use for recreation games during the week and on weekends when tournaments aren’t being held. They see existing youth recreation, and new adult leagues. Ultimately the tax board would decide how often outside tournaments are held, what the rates for reserving field space will be and a host of similar questions park planners get in public meetings and throughout the community. What the committee knows for sure is the county would own the park, a local tax would keep it running and anyone could visit during daylight hours when it’s open. They hope to work with the new board on a field reservation system to bring in events, but prioritize local play. “The people in that area should have first priority,” Domurat said. Ask questions The Lake Wylie Sportsplex committee is holding its final town hall forum at 7 p.m. Oct. 26 at Oakridge Middle School cafeteria. The goal is to provide information about funding the multi-sport complex near Crowders Creek that will be voted on Nov. 8 during the general election. The 50 acres at 5668 Charlotte Highway includes three baseball/softball fields and three multipurpose fields mainly for soccer, lacrosse and football, tennis and basketball courts, an 18-hole disc golf course, playground, picnic shelter and walking trails. Another 18 acres nearby could have a dog park and water access as part of a future phase. The tax district if approved would allow up to $7 million for construction, plus the $2.45 million from county hospitality tax. The cost to taxpayers would be $20 per $100,000 in value for homeowners, and $30 per $100,000 for businesses and rentals, planners say. Learn more at facebook.com/LakeWylieSportsplex. On the ballot “Shall a special tax district to be known as Lake Wylie Parks and Recreation District, the area and boundaries of which are described in the Notice of Election and appear on the tax map of the proposed Lake Wylie Parks and Recreation District filed in the Office of the York County Manager and the Board of Voter Registration and Elections of York County, be created in order that recreation services may be rendered therein, with an ad valorem tax to be levied annually by the Auditor of York County and collected by the Treasurer of York County in such amount as the York County Council may hereafter determine, not to exceed ten (10) mills per year, as well as reasonable user service charges to be determined by the Board of the Lake Wylie Parks and Recreation District, in order to provide for the operation and maintenance of the functions of the said special tax district?” | 2016-10-17 | One group spent years on a Lake Wylie park.

http://www.bzbasel.ch/basel/baselbiet/die-ausschaffungsinitiative-umzusetzen-ist-schwere-last-130650097 | Bei Verdacht auf Sozialhilfemissbrauch konnten die Sozialbehörden der Gemeinden bereits bisher Anzeige gegen ihre Klienten einreichen. Doch seit dem 1. Oktober müssen sie es tun – und vor allem für ausländische Sozialhilfebezüger kann das gravierende Folgen haben. Erlangt ein Verdacht nämlich Rechtskraft, drohen mindestens fünf Jahre Landesverweis, und zwar «unabhängig von der Höhe der Strafe». Das besagt Artikel 66a1 des Strafgesetzbuches, als Folge der Ausschaffungsinitiative, die das Schweizer Stimmvolk 2010 angenommen hat. Ausnahmen sind laut Gesetz nur in wenigen Fällen möglich. Auch das Baselbiet befürwortete damals das Volksbegehren der SVP. Doch wie klar definiert sind die Fälle, in denen die Gemeinden Anzeige erstatten müssen? «Das ist alles noch etwas schwammig», sagt Anita Baumgartner, Präsidentin der Birsfelder Sozialhilfebehörde. Derzeit erarbeite die Gemeinde mit Hilfe ihrer internen Juristin Richtlinien, wie die neue Gesetzeslage umzusetzen sei. Keine Leitlinien vom Verband Den übrigen Gemeinden geht es ähnlich. Noch weiss niemand, wie die Sozialhilfemitarbeiter damit umgehen sollen, dass sie mit einem simplen Verwaltungsakt, nämlich einer Anzeige, den Verbleib eines Ausländers in der Schweiz gefährden. Derzeit laufen unter den Sozialhilfeverantwortlichen der grossen Unterbaselbieter Gemeinden Gespräche darüber. Der Verband für Sozialhilfe des Kantons Basel-Landschaft (VBO) kann ihnen die Arbeit nicht abnehmen. «Die Praxis muss sich erst einspielen», sagt VBO-Präsident Werner Spinnler, der der Liestaler Sozialbehörde vorsteht. «Jede Gemeinde muss selber wissen, wann sie Anzeige erstattet», stellt er klar. «Ich sehe es nicht, dass wir als Leitlinie eine Liste herausgeben, was und was nicht zu einer Anzeige führen soll. Es hat ja noch niemand Erfahrung damit.» Und letztlich sei es «Haltungssache» des einzelnen Mitarbeiters, wie er mit Verdachtsfällen umgehe. Dieser habe ja den Erstkontakt mit den Sozialhilfebezügern. Damit liegt es in der Hand von Gemeindemitarbeitern, ob sie Verdacht auf Missbrauch melden. Diese schwere Last möchte man in Pratteln, einer Gemeinde mit hoher Sozialhilfe- und Ausländerquote, nicht auf den Schultern eines einzelnen Angestellten ruhen lassen. Stattdessen soll jeder einzelne Verdachtsfall im Team besprochen werden, wie Gemeinderat Emanuel Trueb (CVP) erläutert. Erst dann gehe ein Antrag auf Anzeigenerstattung an die Sozialhilfebehörde. Diese entscheide dann, ob auch tatsächlich der Fall der Staatsanwaltschaft gemeldet werde. «Kein Sozialhilfemitarbeiter entscheidet alleine», sagt Trueb. Die Absicht dahinter: Es soll immer die gleiche Stelle den Entscheid fällen. «So gelten die gleichen Kriterien für alle.» Der Spielraum für die einzelnen Mitarbeiter sei nämlich gross. Eine Rolle spiele dabei immer auch die Vorgeschichte des Klienten. Trueb will nicht ausschliessen, dass in Pratteln jemand ohne Vorwarnung angezeigt werde. «Androhungen helfen gewaltig» Doch im Normalfall will man erst mit den möglichen Folgen eines Missbrauchs drohen. Aus der Erfahrung mit möglichen Herabstufungen auf Nothilfeniveau weiss er: «Solche Androhungen helfen meist ganz gewaltig.» Absehbar ist zudem, dass von einem Gericht ausgesprochene Ausschaffungen aufgrund von Sozialhilfemissbrauch konsequent angefochten werden – was zu umständlichen Ermittlungen bei Sozialstellen der Gemeinden führen dürfte. Doch das, betont Trueb, dürfe keinesfalls dazu verleiten, sich mit dem Melden von Missbrauchsfällen zurückzuhalten. Und auch die Gefahr, dass Ausländer zu Unrecht oder wegen unbedeutender Vergehen ausgeschafft werden, sieht er als «sehr gering» an. «Ich vertraue der Professionalität unserer Mitarbeiter.» | 2016-10-18 | Die Ausschaffungsinitiative umzusetzen ist schwere Last | ausschaffungsinitiative, bz basel, sozialhilfe | Baselland | Michel Ecklin | Bz Basel | http://static.a-z.ch/__ip/dpUV6-geTwGrvH4eikfdSM8f0x8/7a6b908cb4594eba0fdb3231e93ca3725c3bc0a4/remote.adjust.rotate=0&remote.size.w=1280&remote.size.h=815&local.crop.h=718&local.crop.w=1280&local.crop.x=0&local.crop.y=93&r=1,teaser-medium | de | 0.99573 | http://www.bzbasel.ch/basel/baselbiet/die-ausschaffungsinitiative-umzusetzen-ist-schwere-last-130650097 | bzbasel.ch | https://data.commoncrawl.org/crawl-data/CC-NEWS/2016/10/CC-NEWS-20161018145313-00001.warc.gz | 2016-10-18T15:51:29+00:00 |
