Item: LDD69744

Elise Davis' The Token encapsulates a gentile Arkansas twang pushed to the foreground by skeletal rhythmic backdrops and churning, distorted guitar textures. Story and storyteller are one and the same. "I have trouble speaking about my vulnerable feelings to someone - especially men I've had feelings towards over the years," she confesses, "but I have no trouble writing down the most painfully honest lyrics and sharing them with the world." Throughout The Token, this honesty drives the exploration of the societal pressures of Southern roots against the modern perceptions of a woman. For fans of Jenny Lewis, Neko Case, Cat Power, Brandi Carlile and Jessie Baylin.

DJ Fresh: 5 things I've learned about music production

DJ Fresh: "no one's opinion is wrong in music."
DJ Fresh: "no one's opinion is wrong in music."

Bass music maven DJ Fresh (AKA Daniel Stein) has already racked up a couple of UK number ones, and has previously worked with the likes of Rita Ora, Ellie Goulding and Dizzee Rascal.

His latest signal, Bang Bang, sees him collaborating not only with super-producer Diplo, but also R. City, Selah Sue and Craig David, so he may well have another hit on his hands.

Ahead of the launch of his new writing and production team Fallen Angels, we asked DJ Fresh to think back over this already hugely-successful career and consider what he's learned about music production, and to pass on some precious words of wisdom...

1. Do what you love

"If you're a musician then you're immediately in a risky reality. Increasingly so these days. So don't waste it by faking it. Let your individuality flow through, as that is what will stand you apart from the army of tutorial-fuelled copycats. If you're going to make music for money, you're in the wrong game. Get into banking. Keep it real yo."

2. Be predictable but not that predictable

"I often think, having experienced several different successful musical entities, that I've missed a trick by trying to be different all the time. Once you've established yourself with a sound, If you do what people expect then generally they will love you for it… for a while.

"Some people take the approach of sticking to their guns until their time comes back round. I get bored doing the same thing. But it was more like that back in my Bad Company UK days. It frustrated me that people thought they could box who I was, so I rebelled.

"There is a lot to be said, however, for establishing what you are by reinforcing your sound and, ultimately, having one."

3. No man is an island

"Music is a collaborative effort. No matter what anyone says, we all copy people. Knowingly or unknowingly. Being influenced allows us to move forward as a whole.

"Every opinion is important. Your sister is a music buyer. So is your mate who likes music you think is awful. If you have two tracks you love equally and you're going to push one, get other people's input.

"No one's opinion is wrong in music. Collaborate and listen. And you could be the next Vanilla Ice [facepalm]."

4. Don't be lazy

"The music 'business' is tougher and more competitive than ever. Whatever you choose to do, there will be someone somewhere doing the same thing working harder than you. If you're going to look someone in the eye and proudly tell them you're a '......' (singer/guitarist/producer), be professional and work hard. And then no matter what happens you can be proud of yourself."

5. Don't listen to the haters

"Really tough. I've been through so many phases of music and isolated many followers along the way. It makes me very sad to be responsible for that. But you have to do YOU because you will never be truly great at being anything else."

Teaching Your Children About Credit Card Debt

Lisa / 29 Jul 2017 / Personal Finance

Credit Cards

I was sitting at the kitchen table with my son when he noticed a credit card bill addressed to me. He picked it up, looked at it, and thoughtfully asked, “How do you get money onto your credit card?”

Confused by the question I asked, “What do you mean?”

He answered as literally as a child could. “Well, you buy things all the time with your credit card. How do you put money into it in order to buy things?

Now I understood! I took the opportunity to explain that you didn’t send money to the credit card before you buy, but rather the bank kept track of everything that I bought during the month and this was the bill for those things that I needed to pay. I like to use real math examples, so I was able to tie in the concept of budgeting explaining that I knew how much money I could afford to spend in a month, and so as long as I didn’t exceed that amount, I just paid the bill at the end of the month.

That answer seemed to satisfy him, and then he asked an even more valuable question: “What happens if you spend more than you have to pay?”

A valid question and one we all know the answer to. Not wanting to overcomplicate the situation with interest charges, late fees, and the rest, I simply answered, “You pay what you can, but then you still owe more money to the credit card bank. That’s what gets people into trouble; they get into debt.”

My son knows enough to know that being in debt is not a good thing. “So then people shouldn’t buy things if they don’t have enough money to pay for them,” was his answer, matter of factly, and then he was onto the next topic. In his 6-year old mind, that was the best solution and warranted no further discussion.

If only more adults felt the same way!

We all know that growing credit card debt in this country is a big problem. According to NerdWallet, the total U.S. credit card debt is $854.2 billion dollars, with an average credit card debt per household exceeding $15k. Woah! That number is staggering!

While emergency situations arise that warrant the need to accrue credit card debt, many of us – myself included -sometimes use our credit cards to buy things that we want, but don’t necessarily have the money for at that moment (I needed those shoes, really I did!). And while splurging every once in a while probably won’t cause you to be knee-high in debt, it is a slippery slope. As parents, we need to both set a good example for our children by paying attention to our own spending habits, while teaching them the basics of good credit card usage at the same time.

Credit cards may have gotten a bad rap, but used responsibly, they can be a great tool. Think of the free miles and other perks that come along with your own card. I encourage fully the use of credit cards, but with one important caveat:

Always pay off your bill in it’s entirely each month. And don’t spend money you don’t have!

You can help your children develop good financial habits from an early age by turning it into a game. Give them a pretend credit card and a budget, and involve them in the day-to-day household spending. Set up a mock store with their toys and have them go shopping. Older children could even have a real budget for something like their school lunches. Give your child an amount of money and have them accompany you while grocery shopping. They might just be surprised at how much their dollars will actually buy!

The most important thing to remember is that by giving your children a good education in credit card spending, you are setting them up for a lifetime of good habits – and that is invaluable.

AFRIMA 2018: African Union, Ghana Partner  For Calendar Unveiling Lailasnews

As well as being a source of values, identity and a sense of belonging , the creative industries have become a driver of economic growth and job creation. In agreeing to host the AFRIMA 2018 Calendar Unveiling, the Government of Ghana is motivated by the need to harness the potential of the creative sector of Ghana to promote national and regional tourism. We congratulate the African Union for lending its weight behind this laudable effort”.

Hon. Afeku added,

e Government of Ghana recognizes the potential of the Creative Industries to shape and reinforce the country’s economic growth. Studies show that by the end of the first decade of this millennium, cultural activities contributed to 1.53% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of our country. Zeroing in on music industry, it is reported with some justifiable pride that that sector alone adds approximately GH¢100 million to GDP”.

Speaking on the collaborative work by the African Union and the International Committee of AFRIMA to create inventive solutions to achieving the AU Charter for African Cultural Renaissance and the Plan of Action on Cultural and Creative Industries, the Acting Director for Social Affairs, African Union Commission, Madam Mariama Cisse revealed that partnerships with member AU states such as Ghana further galvanise the achievement of the AU policy on Africa transformation through social integration

NYC Plans for New Exams to Evaluate Teachers - NBC New York

NYC Plans for New Exams to Evaluate Teachers

    NYC Plans for New Exams to Evaluate Teachers
    Getty Images

    Students in the New York City school system could soon be adding more standardized exams to their year-end docket as part of a local initiative to evaluate teachers.

    The tests are already being developed by education officials, and could roll out as early as next year, The New York Times reports.

    Last year, the state of New York agreed to overhaul its teacher evaluation process after it competed for and won $700 million in federal grant money as part of the education reform program called Race to the Top.

    Race to the Top calls for 60 percent of a teacher's grade to be based on subjective measures, including observations by the principal.

    But the remaining 40 percent of the grade will be based on students' standardized test scores or other "rigorous, comparable" measures of student performance. And half of that 40 percent should be based on state tests and half on measures selected by local districts.

    Most school districts won't commission expensive standardized tests to evaluate their teachers, but New York City, which is getting a $256 million share of the state's Race to the Top money, is planning to create as many as 16 new standardized exams to do just that.

    The tests would cover science, math, social studies and English and would be administered to students from 3rd to 12th grades, reports the Times. These would be in addition to the state English, math and Regents exams students already take.

    City education officials insist the new tests would be different from the multiple-choice evaluations administered by the state. They want the exams to be based on tasks, like asking students to progress through a multistep math problem, modify a science experiment to get a different result or write a persuasive essay.

    In theory, the exams would strengthen instructional practice by compelling teachers to guide students through "higher-order thinking skills" rather than teaching them how to take tests, according to the Times.

    But opponents say the system would still force teachers to spend yet more classroom time preparing for more exams, and that even task-oriented exams aren't necessarily a reliable gauge of teaching performance.

    "When you give kids complicated tasks to do, performance tends to be quite inconsistent from one task to the next," Daniel Koretz, a professor of education and a testing expert at Harvard University, told the Times.

    If the teachers' union approves the grading system, and testing companies act quickly, the city wants to introduce the tests in 100 schools next academic year, 500 the following year and in nearly all the of the city's nearly 1,700 schools by 2013-14, reports the Times.

Molecular links between X-inactivation and autosomal imprinting: X-inactivation as a driving force for the evolution of imprinting?

Author information

Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Molecular Biology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Department of Genetics, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02114, USA.

In classical Mendelian inheritance, each parent donates a set of chromosomes to its offspring so that maternally and paternally encoded information is expressed equally. The phenomena of X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) and autosomal imprinting in mammals violate this dogma of genetic equality. In XCI, one of the two female X chromosomes is silenced to equalize X-linked gene dosage between XX and XY individuals. In genomic imprinting, parental marks determine which of the embryo's two autosomal alleles will be expressed. Although XCI and imprinting appear distinct, molecular evidence now shows that they share a surprising number of features. Among them are cis-acting control centers, long-distance regulation and differential DNA methylation. Perhaps one of the most intriguing similarities between XCI and imprinting has been their association with noncoding and antisense RNAs. Very recent data also suggest the common involvement of histone modifications and chromatin-associated factors such as CTCF. Collectively, the evidence suggests that XCI and genomic imprinting may have a common origin. Here, I hypothesize that the need for X-linked dosage compensation was a major driving force in the evolution of genomic imprinting in mammals. I propose that imprinting was first fixed on the X chromosome for XCI and subsequently acquired by autosomes.

Government to consider anti-tobacco approach

The government will consider the best way in which to introduce a ban on cigarette vending machines and colourful displays of tobacco products in shops, public health minister Gillian Merron has confirmed.

Her announcement follows MPs' decision earlier this week to agree to proposals to outlaw the promotion of tobacco in shops and introduce an outright ban on vending machines for cigarettes.

Ms Merron noted that smoking has a 'heavy impact' on communities' health and that the new plans are designed to ensure that children do not become 'tomorrow's smokers'.

'Protecting young people from a lifetime of addiction and possible death and disease from smoking is crucial, as is supporting smokers who want to quit,' she observed.

'The tobacco industry constantly recruits young people to replace those who give up smoking or die each year and the government has a responsibility to find tobacco control policies that stop this from happening.'

Cancer Research UK has already welcomed MPs' decision to protect young people from tobacco marketing.

The charity's chief executive, Harpal Kumar, claimed that the move would help to reduce the number of young people who take up the 'lethal' addiction.ADNFCR-554-ID-19408383-ADNFCR

Tiger Shroff and Disha Patani’s upcoming projects

Tiger Shroff and Disha Patani’s upcoming projects
Written by Abhishek Rana

Baaghi 2 has become one of the biggest success’ of the year, and the lead actors, Tiger and Disha have gotten a lot of praise for their work in the movie. The movie broke the record of the highest earning movie on the opening day of Padmaavat, this year, and is on its way to enter the 100 crore. With all the appreciation for the two, it should be interesting to see what they’re going to do next. Well, Tiger has another potential hit already on his slate, with Student of the year 2, the sequel to the superhit movie that launched two star kids in the industry, Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt. The movie is going to be directed by Pulkit Malhotra, who made the decent, I hate love stories.

Disha, however has perhaps the biggest movie project in her kitty, one which could be described as being of epic proportions. She will soon start shooting for Sangamithra, which is reportedly going to cost 400 crores to make. It is going to be split in two parts and is being described as similar to Baahubali. The preparations for the movie have already begun. This will indeed be a very crucial project for Disha, who didn’t get very good reviews from critics for her performance in Baaghi 2. If the movie is a hit for her, it could launch her to world wide stardom just like Prabhas.

So, it seems that the two indeed have very promising careers ahead of them, and if they keep making good choices that cater to their talents, they could reach stardom quickly. They might not be the most acclaimed actors in Bollywood, but they do have the right projects to propel them forward.

About this book

A renowned South Island botanist and conservationist, Wilson dreamt of restoring a patch of Banks Peninsula to its original pristine condition.

Twenty-five years later his vision has almost come to fruition. From a gorse-covered block, with a small remnant of ancient bush, he and a group of enthusiastic helpers have created the Hinewai Nature Reserve, a wonderful wilderness which has become one of the treasures of Banks Peninsula, renowned not only for in the South Island but throughout the whole of New Zealand.

Written originally in his clear long-hand script, this book is comprised of extracts from Wilson's regular newsletters to the many supporters of the reserve. It vividly describes Hinewai's always slow, sometimes frustrating, but ultimately triumphant metamorphosis from scrubby, gorse-covered pasture into pristine New Zealand bush, containing nearly all the plant species and many of the birds that once inhabited the steep hills of Banks Peninsula.

Small Personal Accessories Brought Big Business Opportunity in 2015, Reports NPD

Wallets, wristlets, and key fobs are driving significant dollar volume growth, when priced right

Port Washington, NY, January 28, 2016 – Approximately 20 million small personal accessories were sold in U.S. department store, national chain, and direct-to-consumer retailers in 2015, a 4 percent increase over 2014, according to Retail Tracking Service data from global information company, The NPD Group. This unit growth, combined with an increase in average selling price, drove 6 percent dollar growth for the category, bringing sales to more than $708 million for these channels*.

“Small personal accessories is a growing market with big potential, proving its importance to the fashion industry as more than just ways to tote money, mobile phones, and cosmetics,” said Marshal Cohen, chief industry analyst, The NPD Group, Inc. “These products are functional and fashionable ways for consumers to accessorize, express their personal style, and own a piece of designer fashion, without spending a fortune.”

Wallets are the largest small personal accessories segment,  but their 2 percent increase in 2015 was below the pace set by others in the category. The double-digit growth of wristlets brought an additional $15.3 million in sales this past year, almost two-thirds of which came from wristlets with a mobile phone sleeve. Key fobs, although a much smaller portion of the overall small personal accessories category, shaped up to be a key holiday item and drove incremental growth comparable to that of wallets.

Despite differences in segment size and growth rate, price is a common denominator for wallets, wristlets, and key fobs sold in participating department store, national chain, and direct-to-consumer retailers. Products in the $50 to $100 price range were the top dollar sales growth driver in wallets (up 6 percent), and wristlets (up 49 percent). The $50-$100 price point was important for key fobs as well, multiplying their previous year’s sales by a factor of eight.

“Consumers are willing to spend a little more if the perceived value is there, and small personal accessories deliver with product that have splurge appeal with attainable price tags,” added Cohen. “This market has a unique sweet spot for manufacturers and retailers to be aware of, and capitalize on, in order to be competitive and claim their share of the wallet.”

Source: The NPD Group, Inc. / Retail Tracking Service, 12 months ending December 2015

*Data is representative of retailers that participate in The NPD Group's recently expanded Retail Tracking Service across the department store, national chain, and direct-to-consumer channels. NPD’s current estimate is that the Retail Tracking Service represents approximately 41 percent of the U.S. retail market for Accessories.

According to The NPD Group Connected Intelligence Connected Home Automation Report, nearly two-thirds (64 percent) of smart home product owners used a smartphone to control or monitor their home automation devices. Additionally, 73 percent of smart home owners already use voice commands, with 61 percent of those consumers expressing an interest in wanting to use voice to control more products in their homes.

“This reliance on smartphones to control and monitor the smart home is due, in part, to app compatibility, as nearly all home automation devices have an iPhone or Android app,” said John Buffone, executive director, Connected Intelligence. “As apps and devices become more intuitive, voice recognition – and thus, voice control – will begin to play a more prominent role in the further development of the smart home.”

 In line with the momentum to automate and control the smart home, The NPD Group’s Retail Tracking Service has also recorded that Home Automation sales are up 41 percent year-over-year in 2015 versus 2014. This tracking service’s metrics incorporate not only systems controllers such as thermostats, but also the broad range of smart capabilities across technologies such as power, sensors, lighting, security/monitoring, locks, and kits.

 In addition to wanting compatibility, consumers also desire convenience, evidenced by the increased usage of voice commands in the smart home market; and that number is only expected to increase as the majority of smart home product owners have indicated their desire to better integrate speech recognition technology throughout their homes. Rising to meet consumer demand is a new product set that showcases the functionality of voice command technology, such as the Amazon Echo, which leverages voice controls to turn on a Phillips Hue bulb or change the temperature settings on an Ecobee thermostat.

The results of The NPD Group Connected Intelligence Connected Home Automation Report are based on an online survey conducted from late October through early November 2015 to a sample of 7,168 individuals that indicated they were the head of their household. All data is reflective of the U.S. Internet homes.

Caribou swimming across a river
The story of summer in the Central Brooks Range is one of spectacular abundance—millions of insects, lush new plant growth, prey for the predators.

In fact, the availability of food is so great that birds undertake long migrations to arrive here in time to breed and to raise their chicks on a protein-rich diet of mosquitoes and other prolific insects. Some birds have come unimaginable distances, like the arctic terns that fly all the way from Antarctic waters—the longest migration of any bird in the world.

Caribou trek from their boreal forest wintering grounds to their calving areas on the coastal plain, sustaining themselves on lichens along the way. Grizzly and black bears leave their dens with cubs born the previous winter. Small mammals like arctic ground squirrels, lemmings and voles, emerge from their winter homes to feed and frolic once again in the open air. Whitefish, northern pike and grayling feast in the rivers and lakes.

For all of the abundance of summer, it is a fleeting season…and for eight months each year the deep cold and scarcity of winter prevails.

Insects and seeds suddenly become scarce, so most of the birds are forced to migrate—or starve. The few species that remain have made special and often surprising adaptations. Ptarmigan for example, have feathered feet that act like snowshoes allowing them to walk and forage atop the powdery surface. And they’ve learned to dive or burrow down into the snow, which insulates them from the much colder air above.

Caribou and moose move to the boreal forest, sheltering among the trees, eating twigs and scratching for browse under the snow. Voles and lemmings live in chambers tunneled through the snow, spending their winters active and in relative warmth, eating food cached in summer.

Some animals fatten up before winter and do not have to eat. Ground squirrels go fully into hibernation, while black and grizzly bears spend many months in a lighter, sleeplike dormancy inside their dens. Some fish become inactive after retreating to deep still waters under the ice of rivers and lakes. Beavers keep snug within their lodges and live mostly on stored food.

Winter survival for animals of the central Brooks Range means adaptation to scarcity and bitter cold.

But for those that make it—the lavish riches of summer await.

The Hobbit

NWTC Youth Theatre prepares!

Led by Julie Fraser and co-directed by Julie and Natalia Sanchez, this year's aim is to build on last year’s work and to continue to focus on (and invest in) various acting techniques open to us when telling a story.

Youth Theatre meetings: The group began the process at the end of September 2016, meeting each Saturday morning for two hours. By Christmas the decision was taken to put on a show as the participants and teams indicated they would prefer a show this year rather than a share of work. From January the group meet each week for four hours and some are called back for a further two hours work.

This wonderful play offers us some extraordinary challenges to get our creativity flowing! From hobbits, dwarves, elves, trolls, wolves, humans not to mention spiders, Gollum and a wizard there really is something for everyone and fun for all. The script has been adapted for stage and all characters (some with lines, some without) demand an exploration of ways to bring the story to life. All roles are open to any gender – it’s the energy of the character we are looking for.

General workshops kicked off on 17 September by exploring how best to tell our story of The Hobbit. The youth group had extensive auditions (acting, voice, movement, singing and enunciation auditions) on 12 November and rehearsals commenced on November 19th. Casting was announced on 19 November and the group is now deep in the rehearsal process.  External tutors have been invited for specific skill training: commedia dell arte (October by Mitch Mitchelson), fighting  (January-  with  Claire Richardson and concentration/listening skills (January with visiting tutor Philippa Strandberg-Long).

A Former G.S.A. Official Is Indicted in a Fraud Case

Jeffrey Neely is said to have spent lavishly on conferences.CreditYuri Gripas/Reuters

A retired government official who spent lavishly on conferences for federal employees on the West Coast and outlying territories — including an $800,000 junket at a Las Vegas resort in 2010 — was indicted on fraud charges on Thursday in California.

A grand jury in San Francisco charged the official, Jeffrey Neely, 59, the former public buildings commissioner for the General Services Administration’s Pacific Rim Region, with filing false claims, making false statements and using false documents.

The charges stem from his role overseeing conferences like the gathering in Las Vegas, which prompted an investigation by the federal inspector general and a congressional inquiry. That was followed by the firing and resignation of several top agency officials, and forced the Obama administration to place new restrictions on federal travel and meetings.

The Las Vegas gathering was billed as a four-day training conference for 300 managers and staff members at M Resort Spa Casino, and included a mind reader, clowns and a team-building exercise assembling bicycles.

Mr. Neely, who was acting commissioner of the Pacific Rim Region at the time, was forced to retire in 2012 after the inspector general’s report raised questions about his office’s spending on conferences as well as his own travel and personal expenses.

According to the indictment, Mr. Neely wrongly billed the government for personal travel and expenses at resorts in Las Vegas; Long Beach, Calif.; Guam; and Saipan, and told employees who questioned his spending that he incurred the expenses while conducting government business.

As the scandal unfolded surrounding the Las Vegas conference, the G.S.A.’s top administrator, Martha Johnson, resigned in 2012 after firing two of her top deputies, and several other officials were placed on administrative leave.

It was not immediately clear whether Mr. Neely had a lawyer. A nonworking phone number was listed in public records with his address in Gardnerville, Nev.

He is scheduled to make an initial appearance in court Oct. 20. If convicted, he faces up to five years in prison and fines of up to $250,000 for each violation.

Obama Is Said to Choose Chuck Rosenberg as Next D.E.A. Director

WASHINGTON — Chuck Rosenberg, a senior F.B.I. official and former United States attorney, has been chosen by President Obama to be the interim director of the Drug Enforcement Administration, according to law enforcement officials.

Mr. Rosenberg will replace Michele M. Leonhart, who announced her retirement last month after accusations that D.E.A. agents in Colombia had participated in sex parties with prostitutes paid for by drug cartels. She also clashed repeatedly with the Obama administration over its marijuana policies.

For the past year and a half, Mr. Rosenberg has served as the chief of staff to the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey.

Mr. Rosenberg has been supported by both Republicans and Democrats. In 2006, the Senate unanimously confirmed him as the United States attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. He also served as the United States attorney in the Southern District of Texas from 2005 to 2006.

Letter: Safe routes program laudable but pointless

Enforcement needed to tackle traffic concerns to make school routes safer

Re: Willows in inaugural CRD safe routes program,  Oak Bay News, Oct. 5

I heartily applaud Coun. Michelle Kirby’s initiative in trying to establish a safe route for school children to get to school without relying on a car. However in my mind this is a waste of time and trouble as it will never succeed.

Minivans, SUVs and all other forms of moms’ taxis are part of the landscape around all schools. Kids today are enrolled in all sorts of after-school activities, piano lessons, ballet, soccer, et al., and rely on automotive transportation to get them there, which often is on another side of town.

Will the students walk/ bike home after school and meet mom there and then proceed to these activities? Hardly, especially when  the start time of these activties is right after school.

It seems the councillor’s concerns are traffic density and speed and these are the problems which should be addressed by the authorities, namely the police department.

In the rush to get going once the students are picked up, stop signs and speed limits go out the window.

Take a look at Thompson and Estevan avenues to see what I mean. Lots of harried drivers in a rush to get to that important activity yet no sign of police vehicles.
