About Sable

About us

The Sable brand is owned by Sable Park Estates, a company based in Chegutu that has been operational for over 30 years. John and Bridget Eastwood founded it in 1984. Up until 2016 it was a family run business and is still headed by its CEO, Sean Eastwood, the son of John and Bridget.  Sean has not lost sight of the foundations this brand was built on; hard work, attention to detail, and most importantly the never-ending commitment to fresh quality produce. It is this continued hard work, attention to detail, and passion for our poultry industry that motivates Sable to providing its customers with ‘Healthy, Fresh and Tasty Poultry products’ that many Zimbabweans have come to know and rely on the Sable brand for. In 2011, Sable decided to make its business model one that included a sustainable community supply model. Today a minimum of 60% of all Sable product in market comes from community managed and funded out grower models, through the company Brand Agro.

In late 2016, on the back of our principles and policies, the Zimplats Community Share Ownership Trust, invested in the Sable group of companies, with the sole purpose of increasing capacity and eciency. Through this partnership it is our vision to ensure Sable grows so that more communities around Zimbabwe can benefit from the brand.

Sable has a wide range of poultry lines to choose from. And we continue to develop new ones to ensure that we have a product that suits all Zimbabweans.

Sable strives to provide its customers with fresh, tasty and quality produced poultry products at affordable prices. We produce a truly Zimbabwean product, ensuring our pricing is competitive and sustainable for all Zimbabwean businesses in our value chain, from Chick > Veterinary > Feed > Farmer > Abattoir > Distribution > Retailer > Customer.

Sable vision is to be the leading poultry producer in Zimbabwe. To have a brand that is grown by Zimbabwean communities for Zimbabwean customers. Sable Brand should be a household name, known for its world class quality, freshest and tastiest chicken in market and the positive impact it has on the poultry industry and the country.

Choosing a Toothbrush
Choosing a Toothbrush

Never before has there been such a dizzying array of toothbrushes on the market. Consumers are inundated with new designs, materials, attachments, and colors.

Whatever toothbrush design you choose, the most important thing is that you use the toothbrush-at least two or three times a day. Toothbrushes accomplish one major purpose: removing plaque. A good quality toothbrush with well-made bristles will accomplish that.

Moreover, how long you spend brushing your teeth is as critical as how often you brush your teeth. Many people simply brush for a few seconds, spit, and place the toothbrush back in the cup. It is very important to spend at least 2-3 minutes brushing your teeth. This helps to ensure that the brush doesn't miss hard-to-reach or often neglected surfaces. Use short, circular motions and brush at a 45-degree angle.

Following are some tips for choosing a toothbrush:

  • Choose toothbrushes with soft, round-headed bristles Avoid big-headed toothbrushes. Dental associations recommend that you buy a toothbrush with a compact head-1" by 1/2"-so you can easily reach the small areas of your mouth.
  • Some toothbrushes today have wide handles. This helps you control the toothbrush better. So, choose a toothbrush with a handle that is long enough and wide enough for you to handle. You should replace your toothbrush at least four times a year-more often if you have been sick.

Electric vs. Manual Toothbrushes

There are a wide variety of electric toothbrushes on the market today. Some are even disposable. A few models have even received positive reviews by the American Dental Association.

Electric toothbrushes, for the most part, can be just as effective as the old-fashioned, non-powered varieties. Some studies have shown electric toothbrushes cover more area quickly because of their rapid, rotating bristles.

If only the novelty of them, electric toothbrushes may encourage more frequent brushing among people who normally hate to brush. They also may be advantageous for people who have arthritis, or for children with braces who find it more difficult to navigate around the appliances with a manual toothbrush.

A few things to remember about electric toothbrushes: Some are expensive; nearly all cost more than a conventional toothbrush. They also require recharging. And most people who use an electric toothbrush for the first time may experience a little bleeding from the powerful bristle action on their gums. In most cases, the bleeding will stop after a few uses.

Rescue Journal

Carol  ·  Aug. 5, 2011

the hotwater tank is fixed...ok so it wasn't actually was the water pipe leading into or out of it (not sure which) that broke apart and started the flood.... now it has been put back together with better and sturdier parts. yay...we have water again...almost. just waiting for allied to come to refill the big outside water storage tank and then we are good to go! YAY! good thing the volunteers and staff have been keeping the water jugs full...except for not being able to do laundry or flush the toilets or bath the wouldn't have even known!

heads up to the weekend warriors..i said i was off this weekend but i picked up some overtime hours so i am going into work. i will be bitching about losing the days off but i will be happy when i get my next paycheque!

tess had her vet check...her teeth look better, the food here is helping to clean them up pretty good. the vet said to give her some dental diet or dental bones and he will recheck them in a couple of weeks...if they keep cleaning up with a good diet she won't need a dental at all. he also thinks she is younger than she appears...maybe 10, 11 or 12. once we get some weight off her we might see a brand new not so old dog.
we are starting her on pain meds so she can move around better and more comfortably so that should help too.

merry's bloodwork is back...good thing she has been on baytil continously or she probably would be septic and dead. she still has a massive infection tho. anyway..she is starting on daily oral ivermectin and hopefully the mite count will go down and stay down more consistently than with the every 2 week injections. poor merry... her skin is still such a mess.

kristy's bloodwork is back..not too much to report except infection from her poor mouth. she is cleared for a dental but needs to be on antibiotics first. i will book her in about 2 weeks from now and then she should feel pretty good.

the new cats are good. we moved marj and blanche up into a cage where we can watch them more closely. they are both still a bit shy but at least we can now pet them and give them treats which will help them to learn to trust us. bea is a total affectionate beast...she just purrs and purrs and kneeds and kneeds...gosh she is totally lovely. poor little bonnie's eye looks so sore but she started on her eye ointment now so hopefully it will feel better in a few days. and desi got herself a new comfy bed which she really likes a whole lot..she just looks so content and comfortable but she gets freaked out whenever we take out her food and water bowls to clean and re-fill them. it is like she thinks we aren't giving them back! i told her food is never an issue around here...she will always have plenty to choose from. right now she is quite liking the fancy feast she gets! sweet cat!

cherry pits urinalysis is back...yep i was right on top this and didn't drop her ball. it is another bladder and kidney infection..the only change is she is going to stay on the antibiotics for 4 weeks this time..hopefully then she can keep it gone. so glad we caught it right could have really messed her up cuz she is so frail.

the vet came and listened to ziggy's chest...all is good. he checked out chewie's wound...after a full year and two surgeries, it is finally healed! and had a look at pop's foot...if i want he will come back next week on a quiet day and try to fashion a splint to try to stabilize it..i don't like the way it keeps slipping off to the side. in the mean time we really need to corner steve the ferrier to get out here and put on an orthopedic shoe...i phoned him today again and left another message, hopefully he will get back to me soon.

i think that is pretty much all of the news today..i didn't get the saints weekly feed and supply runs done....hopefully i can squeeze out some time this weekend, it depends on how many hours i have to work cuz i still have to be home in time to put the barn guys to bed...shit and starting next week it is 6 freaking weeks of mon-friday at work for me. i like having days off during the week with staff here it is usually easier for me to get my things (like supply runs) done...except for this week which totally sucked cuz i got too many things on my plate and got totally bogged down.

On a completely unrelated note . . . SAINTS has dropped to 3rd place in the shelter challenge. Please remember to vote every day, including weekends.

well i picked up the laundry on fri so hope that helps did not come say hi to the dogs did not want to get them going. see you tomorrow.

Bunny Horne

Carol with your busy schedule sounds like Brent and I will likely miss you on Sunday SO if you could just leave him a mock up sketch of the sign you want him to make for the front gate that would be great. He has some quiet time right now at work and could get this project done for you.
MO & KO - we are bringing out lots of water on Sunday - hopefully it will cover the barn needs for that day.

Chinese Ambassador to the US Visits SAIS DC

Chinese Ambassador Cui Tiankai describes the principle of peace (written on the sign) in Chinese foreign policy. (Kaveh Sardari)
Chinese Ambassador Cui Tiankai describes the principle of peace (written on the sign) in Chinese foreign policy. (Kaveh Sardari)

Guest Contributor at SAIS Washington

“The task of the ambassador is to be a messenger,” said Cui Tiankai in his address at SAIS Washington last Tuesday, in one of his first public appearances as the Chinese ambassador to the United States. The ambassador was articulate and personable, by turns humorous and thoughtful. His presentation seemed to achieve that time-honored benchmark of diplomatic rhetoric: the ability to linger in the memory as a pleasant (albeit vague) conversation, neither controversial nor unexpected.

It was a surprise, then, to see China Central Television’s coverage of the event with the headline, “China warns Japan against leading Asia-Pacific toward confrontation,” or to read Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga’s direct response to Cui’s comments. Cui stated in his speech that there were some in Japan who attributed Japan’s defeat in World War II to the US’ atomic bombs, rather than the joint efforts of the Allied Forces. This same group, continued Cui, believed that cultivating Japan’s relationship with the US could come at the expense of relations with other countries, particularly in Asia. Suga later replied that Cui’s speech was Chinese self-promotion and not worth commenting on.

This row per se is not particularly surprising; China and Japan hold different opinions on a number of issues, and trade barbs regularly. What is noteworthy, however, is that a public event ostensibly about US-Chinese relations had an impact that is a) more relevant to China’s relations with Japan than to its relations with the US and b) counter to the stated goals of Cui’s presentation – peace and stability. The issue is not whether or not Cui’s assessment is correct, but rather whether or not the US and China are fully utilizing public fora in their attempts to deescalate regional tension, make preparations for crisis management, and realize both sides’ goal of breaking the historical cycle of great power rivalries.

Diplomacy is sustained by high-level meetings and political conferences, but also by diplomatic presentations at universities, dinners with foreign academics, and a number of other opportunities for public discussion. The messenger does, after all, need an audience. On Tuesday, Ambassador Cui drew a rough outline of China’s history, objectives, and values. He emphasized China’s dual desires for peace and independence, as well as the role the “century of humiliation” has had in shaping China’s decision-making process. Cui noted that a respect for history is essential in understanding and shaping international relations.

Cui’s approach applies to public fora as well – especially if the US and China are as serious about improving their bilateral relationship as they have claimed. The recent history of the US and China has been marked by caution and uncertainty on both sides. While progress in the relationship has been positive and undeniable, developments such as the Hainan Island collision in 2001 and tensions in the East and South China Seas underscore the complexity of American as well as Chinese objectives in the region. If the US and China are in fact the “G2” of the G-20, the two decisive powers in the international system, then Sino-US public fora offer a space which international institutions do not quite cover. They offer a chance for academics, diplomats, ordinary citizens, policymakers, and students to focus on the US and China without diverting attention to separate issues.

The scholar Nancy Bernkopf Tucker has written that the biggest problem in American policy toward China, over the last two decades, has been that of incoherence. The primary reason for this incoherence is the existence of American sectors with far different interests in China, for example, commercial and security groups. The same might be said now of leaders in both Washington DC and Beijing; that they do not always participate in public fora in a constructive manner, or that they have demonstrated an unwillingness to treat such fora as essential. The effect of this treatment is that public fora may become inadvertent sources of tension or, from a more cynical perspective, platforms for sending messages to third-party countries. Neither option is productive; both run the risk of obscuring the positions of the US and China in their bilateral relationship.

“The task of the ambassador is to be a messenger,” said Cui Tiankai. “But sometimes,” he continued, “the messenger is the message.” After Cui’s talk on Tuesday, it is not clear to whom the message was directed, nor for what end.

An Audit Report on Selected Grants to Public Community Colleges at the Texas Workforce Commission

July 2017

Summary Analysis

The Texas Workforce Commission (Commission) has sufficient controls in place to help ensure that it awards Skills Development Fund Program (Program) grants in accordance with certain state laws, rules, and Commission policies and procedures. However, the Commission should update its Program grant agreements to ensure that all requirements are consistent and clear to minimize the risk of an overpayment. The Commission also should ensure that all agreements are signed prior to their effective dates.

The Commission has implemented a monitoring framework to help ensure that Program grantees comply with requirements. However, the Commission should strengthen certain controls to reduce the risk of overpayments and ensure that all grants are monitored on a regular basis.

Auditors visited the Austin Community College and the Alamo Colleges District and reviewed two Regular Skills Development grants at each college. Auditors determined that the colleges (1) had sufficient documentation to support most of the training hours reported and (2) had not exceeded their administrative budget allowance for each grant. However, auditors identified instances of billing errors at both colleges.

 Jump to Overall Conclusion

The Commission awarded grants in accordance with certain requirements tested. However, the Commission did not always ensure that language within grant agreements was consistent and clearly defined requirements. Specifically:

•   Grant agreements reviewed did not clearly communicate how long participants trained should remain employed.

•   The two grant agreements that auditors reviewed at the Alamo Colleges District did not clearly define what types of costs could be classified as program costs and what should be classified as administrative costs. As a result, auditors could not determine whether $126,384 of salaries and benefits associated with the executive positions for both grant agreements tested were correctly classified as program costs.

The Commission did not have an adequate process to ensure that both parties sign grant agreements prior to the grant agreement’s effective date.

Jump to Chapter 1

While the Participant Performance Report tool adequately calculates the total number of participants trained and training hours delivered, it does not identify participants who do not complete the number of required training hours.

The Final Payment Report tool, under most circumstances, accurately calculates the maximum reimbursable amount at closeout. However, the Commission should make improvements to the report to help ensure that the final payment is accurate under all circumstances.

Jump to Chapter 2-A

The Commission has a process in place to monitor its Program grants; however, it should strengthen that process to ensure that it regularly monitors all grants.

The Commission should strengthen its reviews of the monthly Trainee Information Forms to better identify potential errors that could lead to participant ineligibility.

Jump to Chapter 2-B

The Commission conducts desk reviews and onsite visits to verify the accuracy of grantees’ self-reported information and determine grantees’ compliance with grant agreement requirements.

Jump to Chapter 2-C

Auditors conducted site visits at two grantees, Austin Community College and the Alamo Colleges District, and determined that both grantees had sufficient documentation to support most of the training hours reported to the Commission and had not exceeded their grant agreements’ administrative budget allowances as of January 2017. However, auditors identified billing errors at both grantees.

Jump to Chapter 2-D

The Commission notified the Office of the Governor and the Legislature of the status of the Program at the end of each fiscal year, as required by Texas Labor Code, Section 303.006(c). However, certain information was incomplete or inaccurate in the published annual Program reports for fiscal years 2015 and 2016.

Jump to Chapter 3

The Commission implemented adequate information technology controls for the key information systems that support the Program. However, the Commission should improve user access controls to minimize the risk of unauthorized access to its Contract Administration and Tracking System.

An Audit Report on Contracting Processes at the Texas State University System

July 2020

Summary Analysis

The Texas State University System (System) had processes to ensure that it plans and procures contracts in accordance with applicable requirements. However, it should strengthen its processes to ensure that (1) vendor proposals are properly scored, (2) required conflict of interest and non-disclosure statements are completed, and (3) its contracts include the clauses required by System policy.

 Jump to Overall Conclusion

The System performed certain contract planning and procurement tasks in compliance with applicable requirements.

Jump to Chapter 1-A

The System did not have a process in place to ensure that vendor proposals were accurately scored and ranked. For example, evaluators did not consistently use the same scoring weight, and all evaluator scores were not always included in the final ranking. Additionally, the System did not always ensure that every employee involved in the contracting procurement process completed conflict of interest, non-disclosure agreement, and nepotism disclosure forms.

Jump to Chapter 1-B

While the System ensured that the contracted scope of work was substantially the same as the solicited scope of work for all 11 applicable contracts tested , the System should ensure that its contracts contain all of the clauses required by the System’s Contract Management Handbook. In addition, the System reviewed and approved a majority of the applicable contracts prior to execution in accordance with its policies and procedures.

Jump to Chapter 1-C

The System had processes to ensure that contract change orders were approved and that the contracts were closed out in accordance with its policies. However, the System should strengthen its review of contract payments.

Jump to Chapter 2

The System complied with certain statutory contracting requirements such as developing a contract management handbook and completing training requirements.

Jump to Chapter 3-A

The System posted all 28 of its contracts greater than $15,000 that were active at any time from September 1, 2018, through November 30, 2019, to its website as required by Texas Government Code, Section 2261.253. However, the System did not consistently report contracts to the Legislative Budget Board in accordance with the General Appropriations Act.

Oristano, facing west

At the northern limit of the Campidano plain, near the mouth of the Tirso, in the center of a system of very fishy ponds, stands Oristano, the provincial capital since 1974. Its origin is set at 1070, when from the nearby city of Tharros, devastated by the Saracens, the population migrated to the new settlement. Of great importance it rose between 1100 and 1400, when, the capital of the Giudicato of Arborea was led by Mariano IV and his daughter Eleonora, editors of the collection of laws called Carta de Logu.

In the historic center there is a small artistic jewel, the Cathedral, built in 1228 with the contribution of Lombard workers, then rebuilt in the 17th century in Baroque style. The exterior is therefore characterized by an overlap of artistic styles as well as the interior where elegant baroque schemes alternate with neoclassical and contemporary forms. It is all adorned with works of art such as the wooden statue of the Annunciation and the marble one of the Madonna del Rimedio dating back to the fourteenth century.

The Tower of Mariano II, in blocks of sandstone, was erected in 1291 and it is, together with the opposite tower of Portixedda, the only trace of the ancient wall circle.

The city also has beautiful civil buildings such as the neoclassical Parpaglia Palace where the Antiquarium Arborense is located, which houses several archaeological collections from the excavations of Tharros, an art gallery and a section dedicated to the time of the Giudicati.

A natural area of great interest near Oristano is the protected marine area of Sinis, in the municipality of Cabras, where it is possible to visit the ruins of Tharros, a real city founded in the seventh century BC and abandoned in the eleventh century, where it is possible to retrace almost two millennial of history from the Nuragic civilization to the Arborean Judicial age. The open-air museum is a natural amphitheater overlooking the sea where there are the remains of the nuragic village, abandoned before the advent of the Phoenicians. Also in the municipality of Cabras, it’s a must visit its pond characterized by a large birdlife and picturesque fishermen’s huts.

In the town of Oristano there is also the promenade of Torregrande, which is, during the day a favorite bathing destination for young people and families and at sunset becomes the center of the Oristano summer nightlife.

The traditional event of the Sartiglia, which takes place according to a centuries-old ritual during the Carnival period, is particularly distinctive: in fact, it was probably introduced in 1350 by Mariano II to celebrate his wedding. The head of the race, su Componidori, a figure of untouchable sacredness, on the day of the race, after being dressed by a group of costumed girls, is Massaieddas, leads the procession of masked riders, trumpeters and drummers that crosses the city to the carousel square. Here, after the sound of a specific signal, he gallops and running to put his sword into the hole in the center of a silver star hanging on a thread: if he succeeds, the harvest of the year will be abundant. After him all the other knights have to do the same thing. It represents the most important Oristano event of the year that attracts many tourists from all over the world. During the event, the city dresses up and after seeing the race to the star and the pair (spectacular stunts on horseback), turn to the various stands to taste the typical sweets of the carnival accompanied by a few glasses of Vernaccia di Oristano.

Another event is the ancient Santa Croce fair or national fair of Oristano, dedicated to the exhibition of Italian equine breeds born in Sardinia, which includes an agri-food market and a market exhibition; it takes place in September.As for gastronomy, Oristano offers strong and unmistakable flavors: the tasting of the famous mullet bottarga (dried and salted fish eggs), coming from the nearby ponds, and eels, cooked according to a thousand recipes, should not be missed. Among the sweets, the mustazzolus, based on wine must, are very characteristic.

What Are the Advantages of Using Online Trading Platforms?

Tuesday, 19 November 2019

Are you still trading offline?

Do you often find yourself searching for share broker near me or discount stock broker near me?

Traditionally, trading meant finding stock broker companies or share market brokers, consulting them and investing your money after doing so. Every time, you had to update your investment, you had to contact the broker and wait for final modifications. Such a hassle, right?

Today, we are living in the age of next-gen technology, which offers us a variety of online trading options with seamless trading experience. You only have to search for an online discount brokerage firm near me, and you can start investing.

However, due to lack of knowledge and lower trust in online platforms, many investors have an aversion towards online trading platforms. Hence, to clear the air of confusion, let’s first explore what online trading is and then discuss the benefits of using these platforms.

Online trading is similar to your broker, just that it is not an actual person. Online trading eliminates the need of a broker as you can directly check financial instruments through the online platform, make an investment decision, and invest your money. You can purchase or sell stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc.

Below, we have explained some of the benefits of online trading platforms. Read more to understand why online trading can help you save money spent.

Benefits of Online Trading platform

When compared to the offline method or the traditional form of trading, online trading is increasingly gaining popularity due to its unique benefits. From getting real-time access to information to receiving 24*7 guidance, online trading leads to high customer satisfaction and experience. You don’t even have to worry about how to open a trading account because everything is simple and hassle-free.

Dive in and understand other benefits of online trading platforms.

No Middleman

Online trading platforms remove the need for having a broker. You don’t have to reach out to the broker for every decision and put your financial decisions in the hands of an unknown person. You can utilize the simple trading process, open trading account online, and make an informed decision.

This type of trading helps you make smarter, better trading decisions based on major and minor market fluctuations.

When there is no middleman, the charges of trading reduce automatically. However, there is a minimal brokerage fee incurred by the investor through online trading as well. But, this is much less than the offline medium. Since the maintenance costs of the online trading platformare much less than the offline trading platforms, the cost of brokerage is reduced for the customers as well.

Better Control

You have high control over your investment. As your brokers or dealers also have personal responsibilities, they may be busy sometimes. This means that at times, you may not be able to contact your broker when you urgently need to make an investment. In a situation like this, your investments become largely dependent on the broker.

Through online trading, you can take full control of your investments, which means you can invest, modify, or pull out your money anytime you want to.

Quick Execution

Every online platform directly connects to the stock exchange market. This means that every processing and execution is quick and easy. You can practically purchase, sell, and update your investments (stocks and bonds) in a few clicks.

The Final Word: Stock Trading India

Online trading is a profitable option for investors who are looking forward to gaining more control over their investment. Not only is it a cost-effective trading option, but it is also convenient, quick, and transparent.

If you are also looking for a lucrative platform, check SAS online trading for real-time support and investment decisions.

Back issues 08042018

Saturday, August 4, 2018

Today I have some back problems. It started last night. I woke up on Friday morning with an aching injury type pain or discomfort. I think it came about when I was either flipping my mattress around or maybe due to doing 30 push-ups in poor form. I also did the Jx2 and may have weakened or compromised my system from the stressors in the body. Darn you MRB who showed me those photos. So anyway, my pops thinks it is from all the fruit and cherries and grapes I’ve been eating and all the acidity. I haven’t had a lot of milk or egg products so may not have been getting enough vitamins in my diet. I drank a cup of milk in the morning and a hard boiled egg and then I had one this Saturday morning also. Last night I had a banana, bowl of radish carrot fried sticky rice and a whole baked chicken. And this morning for breakfast I had 2 oatmeal cookies, a part of a cheesecake, dates, and also some popcorn and also milk and a hard boiled egg again. Lunch was kidney beans and chicken in a pot with barley and also rice. I also had a Boca veggie burger and part of lamb meat in a flour spinach wrap. I had the rest of that for dinner, that is the lamb and burger and spinach wrap and some rice and kidney bean and chicken. And I had some more kettle popcorn and some water.

I  had a serious aching and soreness and was hunched yesterday morning from what ever happened or maybe it was the bed. And so I also tried to eat my fruit cherry and grape breakfast and go to work. Decided to go swing in the garage but didn’t totally help. As I walked out the door I had my first throb and back seized up for a second and I almost knelt to the ground and dropped it to the ground. Saw ant and didn’t want it to get into bag. Went to my car. My car isn’t quite aligned seat-wise so will need to fix that. I then got to my stop and I was about to walk to the bus stop when it throbbed again and I had to throw my suit case to my car and catch my breath. Guy in opposite car noticed. I started stretching. Got to work and was walking and stumbling slowly. Had to go see nurse. Did ice pack at first with duct tape strapped to back and then later in the afternoon did the heat pack but almost couldn’t make to third floor without stumbling. Bad. Left around time R.C. left.

Got home and started parallel bars and dad helped me also with getting on a soft cushion and swinging. and bicycling while lifting legs and also swinging and kicking forward back and forth or pull up bar. Slept on first floor on mat last night. Banana settled poorly on stomach. Woke up few times in night and had major difficulty last night pulling legs to chest. And also rolling over. Going to do more exercises. Thermacare and go to bed on first floor. Raise legs. Talk to T.W. and get some rest.

With the October 1, 2007 issue, the annual subscription rate of the Standard Bearer will increase to $21 (domestic) and $25 (foreign). This is the first increase since 1995. The Board of the Reformed Free Publishing Association recently made this decision because on July 15, 2007 the mailing rate increased by 23% for domestic and almost 300% for foreign!

The new subscription rate is still reasonable for twenty-one issues of the Standard Bearer. We can offer the magazine at this low rate because of the generous support by Protestant Reformed churches through regular collections, and by individuals both within and outside the PRC. The readers may know that for both domestic and foreign, the subscription covers only a part of the production and mailing costs of the magazine. So we value, and need, this support over and above subscriptions.

The number of subscriptions is now at 2,420. Thank you for subscribing! We hope to see continued subscriptions. And we desire increase in subscriptions. This will keep the cost of subscriptions as low as possible. But especially we are interested to have the Standard Bearer’s witness to the Reformed faith and life reach more people to the glory of our good God. The RFPA continues to work on this.

But you can help, too. We hope elders will recommend the magazine to the members. All the readers can encourage family and friends to become readers of the Standard Bearer. Gift subscriptions are still half price for a year. Keep this in mind for a gift for your neighbor, work acquaintance, friend, or relative.

Please pray for us.

Pray for all the writers.

May the Standard Bearer be one means to bring God’s Word to the ends of the earth.

SBP Law was proud to participate with Exterro and Gavin Dodd at the recent prestigious ACEDS Litigation webinar.

A Legal Hold, also known as litigation hold, document hold, hold order, or preservation order, has more commonly been a US term but organisations in the UK and Europe also need to ensure their data preservation practices are effective in mitigating the risk of lost, altered or destroyed evidence in litigation, investigation or disputes.

The Legal Hold process can be the most crucial and important activity within e-discovery. It sets the foundation for the rest of the e-discovery process by defining the set of electronically stored information (ESI) at issue in the legal matter.

Join ACEDS and Exterro on this webinar to explore:

  • The importance of an effective data preservation program
  • 5 tips for establishing a robust Legal Hold process
  • How technology can help solve your data preservation challenges

Theatre Review: Helter Skelter

 531 total views

The story of ‘Helter Skelter’ revolves around a young lady, Susan Atkins (Amelia Banerjee) who is being investigated for the brutal murder of Sharon Tate, who was at the final trimester of her pregnancy when she died. It is set in 1969 during the peak of the hippie period, the period of reformation and happy rebellion.

The scene starts with Susan at the table, listening to music from the stereo in front of two full plates of food laid out in front of her whilst twiddling with her thumbs, an obvious sign of nervousness. Then Susan’s father John Atkins (Liam Cain) walks in, who appears to be in a drunken state and proceeds to take a seat at the table without paying any attention towards Susan. Susan straightens up and immediately switches the radio off, leaving only silence, and a heightened alertness is awoken amongst the viewers. A conversation then bellows with John instructing Susan to pour him a drink.

The conversation which then follows is of a racist nature, followed by derogatory terms used on women after he enquires about Susan’s day at school. The dysfunctional home environment of Susan is attributed to Susan’s actions later on in the plot by the lawyer, who also makes an attempt to narrate the development of the plot, which consists of mainly flashbacks, and the recollection from a witness, Mary (Rosie Schofield), and Susan herself.

Notorious Charles Manson (Mike Narouei), formerly a cult leader, built a quasi-commune with devil worship and instigating murder as part of what he believed was helping the apocalyptical race war he named ‘Helter Skelter’, based on the Beatles song. The play explores how the actions of Susan Atkins were in fact the very actions of Charles Manson, although not physically murdering Sharon, but insinuating the murder based on Susan’s and his other followers’ broken pasts.

Susan Atkins meets Linda Kassabian AKA ‘Kas’ (Rachel Morris) at a diner who kindly offers her a meal and a place to stay, but in return for the latter, she would have to agree to work as a stripper. Mamma (Beth Dyke), who runs the joint, is a widow who decides to invest all of the money she got from her husband’s death into the joint and agrees to let Susan work and live with Kas. However, Susan, having a pronounced love for singing, sees it as another way to save up extra money to fund her escape from the place and is hopeful that she would be able to move away to be signed by a record label. The argument between Kas and a fellow colleague (Rosie Schofield) results in a disagreement as to how Susan prostitutes for extra money, which then leads to Susan being called into Mamma’s office where she is fired.

Kas and Susan both decide to leave the premises, although at the fury of Mamma, and this is when they meet Charles Manson and his followers, Leslie Van Houten (Isabel Shaw) and Patricia Krenwinkle (Hannah Swain). You’re able to see why Charles Manson was incredibly charming. The actor executed the character very well, speaking in riddles to which Susan responds very accurately as well, undoubtedly proving that the scriptwriting was exceptionally brilliant, with a simplistic use of words, yet a very good play of character.

It continues with the representation of the biker group, Reapers, in which Reggie Ladou (Liam Cain) plays a member who often frequents Charles Manson’s lair to exchange sex with protection for his cult. The women amongst his followers are expected to fornicate with the biker men, which Charles assured them was the right thing to do. The plot quickly builds with disturbing narrations of how Charles conditioned his followers by prodding them into traumatic experiences, with brilliant actors who convinced you that what you were watching was real, and the background music chosen to accompany every scene was very well thought out and left silence where necessary, which is often the determinant factor as to how much the experience is enjoyed by the audience.

Towards the end, Charles Manson attempts to fully envelop his followers into recognising him as having ultimate power, and hands Patricia, a mentally-challenged individual, a knife for her to kill herself in his name. However, realising this, the actor executes fear, rationality and confusion very well, and the character is then killed by Susan herself as a punishment after being brainwashed by Charles.

Charlie adopts a lion and cub approach with Tex (Calum Lake), where he asks Tex to roar for him, which as peculiar of a situation it was, saw no hesitation from the actor with tremendous focus invested into the role. The recount of Mary at the stand, is that she was not fit enough to be a follower and is turned away, which explores an area of the cult which was selective and manipulative in nature.

The end of the plot shows Susan in handcuffs recalling her encounter with Charles and how it confirms the insanity that Charles Manson had driven his followers to. The followers were manipulated into murdering many innocent beings and the play explores how the verdict which was then carried out had everything to do with the manipulation through his torments and his mind games. The play also uses very clever props that allow for effective utilisation and storytelling.

At the finale, the viewers are left with an almost mind-numbing emptiness with the shocking experience of what is an amazing exercise performed by an amazing cast. The lighting team has to be credited for the timely shift in scenes. The only negative would be that members of the audience who already knew that it would be the ending tended to clap way too early and it leaves a viewer who has never watched the play a little disappointed that they were not allowed to come to a realisation. But it is an enjoyable performance and definitely worth a watch. Once again, a brilliant performance and kudos to those involved.

Video-interpreting for cognitive assessments: an intervention study and micro-costing analysis Academic Article uri icon

  • Introduction Evidence in the literature demonstrates the reliability of cognitive screening assessments using video technology in English-speaking older populations. However, this has not been tested in older culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) populations who require an interpreter, and what the associated costs would be. The aim was to determine if the Rowland Universal Dementia Assessment Scale (RUDAS) and the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) could be reliably administered over video-interpreting methods compared with face-to-face interpreting. In addition, the study aims to compare the costs of video-interpreting with the costs of face-to-face interpreting. Methods We compared similarity of the RUDAS and GDS scores when administered face-to-face and via video-interpreting. The similarity of scores between methods was analysed using paired t-tests and Bland–Altman plots. A costing analysis was done using a micro-costing approach to estimate the costs of video-interpreting compared with face-to-face, extrapolated to a national level. Results Analysis found no significant differences in the mean assessment scores between video-interpreting and face-to-face (RUDAS mean difference: −0.36; 95% confidence interval (CI): −1.09, 0.38, GDS mean difference: 0.22; 95% CI: −0.38, 0.83). Bland–Altman plots demonstrated that 71% of RUDAS scores and 82% of GDS scores were within the maximum allowed difference of ±2 units. Costing analysis showed a A$7 saving per assessment when using video-interpreting compared with face-to-face, with a total national saving of A$247,350. Discussion Video-interpreting was found to be as reliable as face-to-face interpreting for both RUDAS and GDS assessments. Cost analysis indicates that video-interpreting is cheaper than face-to-face interpreting.

UroLift System

South Central Urology Clinic now offering UroLift, a minimally invasive approach to provide relief from BPH symptoms.

Schedule an appointment today at South Central Urology Clinic to discuss your BPH symptoms with us. Please contact South Central Urology Clinic at (601) 428-0438.

What is BPH?

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, or BPH, is a condition in which the prostate enlarges as men get older. BPH is a very common condition that affects over 40 million Americans and over 500 million aging men worldwide. Over 40% of men in their 50s and over 70% of men in their 60s have BPH. While BPH is a benign condition and unrelated to prostate cancer, it can greatly affect a man’s quality of life.

As the prostate enlarges, it presses on and blocks the urethra, causing bothersome urinary symptoms such as:

  • Frequent need to urinate both day and night
  • Weak or slow urinary stream
  • A sense that you cannot completely empty your bladder
  • Difficulty or delay in starting urination
  • Urgent feeling of needing to urinate
  • A urinary stream that stops and starts

If you suffer from the above symptoms, you are not alone. BPH is the leading reason men visit a urologist. You can measure the severity of your BPH symptoms by taking a International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) questionnaire.

The UroLift® System Treatment

What is the UroLift System?

Treatment with the UroLift® System uses a minimally invasive approach that provides rapid relief and recovery of BPH symptoms. It is an earlier treatment option can get men off BPH medications and avoid major surgery. The goal of the UroLift System treatment is to relieve symptoms so you can get back to your life and resume your daily activities.

The UroLift® System treatment has demonstrated a significant improvement in quality of life for patients compared to medications. The UroLift® System is the only BPH procedure shown not to cause new and lasting erectile or ejaculatory dysfunction*, while being a safe and effective treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms due to BPH.

How Does The UroLift® System Work?

The UroLift® System uses a revolutionary approach to treating BPH that lifts and holds the enlarged prostate tissue so it no longer blocks the urethra. It is the only available BPH treatment performed by a urologist that does not require heating, cutting, or removal of the prostate tissue. The procedure is performed using local anesthesia at South Central Regional Medical Center. Patients typically return home the same day without a catheter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is a good candidate for the UroLift® System treatment?

You may be a good candidate if you are a male, 45 years of age or older, and have symptoms relating to BPH. Speak with your urologist to see if the UroLift® System treatment is right for you. If you have a known allergy to nickel, titanium or stainless steel, talk to your doctor about your allergy before getting a UroLift System treatment.

What should I expect during the treatment? Is it painful? How long does it take?

If you and your doctor decide that the UroLift® System treatment is right for you, your doctor will provide you with more detailed information relating to the treatment. In general, the UroLift System is a minimally invasive treatment that entails minimal downtime. Your doctor will use the UroLift Delivery Device to deploy permanent implants to relieve obstruction caused by the enlarged prostate that is pressing on your urethra. The procedure, which usually takes less than an hour, may be performed under local or general anesthesia and you may be given medication to feel comfortable during the treatment. This typically helps minimize discomfort during the procedure, though everyone’s definition for pain and discomfort varies greatly. Typically, no catheter and no overnight stay is required post-treatment.

What happens post-treatment, during the recovery period? Are medications required?

After the treatment, patients typically go home the same day without a catheter. There is minimal downtime post treatment and many patients experience symptom relief in as early as 2 weeks. Patients may experience some urinary discomfort during the recovery period. Most common side effects are mild to moderate and include pain or burning with urination, blood in the urine, pelvic pain, urgent need to urinate and/or the inability to control the urge. Most symptoms resolved within two to four weeks after the procedure.

Does the treatment affect my sexual function?

Clinical studies have shown the UroLift® System treatment does not cause new, sustained instances of erectile or ejaculatory dysfunction. The same cannot always be said of other BPH therapies such as TURP, laser, and even medication.

Does my insurance cover the treatment?

The UroLift® System treatment is covered by Medicare and many private insurers. Contact your insurance provider for your specific coverage information.

Talking to Your Doctor about BPH

BPH is a very common condition and is one of the leading reasons men visit a urologist. Whether you have just started experiencing symptoms or if you have tried various medications or even surgery, there are a range of treatment options available.

Before you visit the doctor’s office, you can take this BPH Symptom Quiz, designed by the American Urological Association, to determine the severity of your symptoms. We will discuss your symptoms together to decide which treatment option is best for you.

Schedule an appointment today at South Central Urology Clinic to discuss your BPH symptoms with us. Please contact South Central Urology Clinic at (601) 428-0438.

This procedure is offered through a facility that is a clinic owned by South Central Regional Medical Center. Office visits are subject to co-pays.

How does GreenDispenser self-deleting malware work?

A new type of self-deleting malware, known as GreenDispenser, allows attackers to rob ATMs of cash. Expert Nick Lewis explains how this threat works and how to prevent it.

How does self-deleting malware work? Is it typically on a system long enough to be detected, or does it erase itself before detection? If so, how would enterprises know if any damage is done by self-deleting malware?

The GreenDispenser malware discovered by Proofpoint allows a criminal to empty the cash out of an automatic teller machine (ATM). It seems to rely on poor physical security practices and potential vulnerabilities in the ATM software. Once the GreenDispenser is used to cash out the ATM, it securely deletes itself. The self-deleting malware works by destroying any files it creates at a predefined time, such as once it executes or on a certain date. The files or executable code first need to get onto the victim's machine. In the GreenDispenser example, potential physical security vulnerabilities were exploited to gain physical access to the ATM so the malicious code could be copied to the system.

Obviously, one of the goals of any malware is to not be detected; in the case of GreenDispenser, the malware author tries to reduce the chance of detection by deleting itself before detection occurs. However, the malware needs to be on the system long enough to be executed so the ATM can be cashed out. ATMs and kiosk systems are typically very restricted and have controlled functionality. This gives a significant benefit to a defender because any executable, file or network connection that is not specifically approved can and should be blocked or investigated as suspicious. An enterprise would know damage was done if malware is detected on an ATM or kiosk.

My Identity in Jesus

I cannot imagine what it is like to live a life without faith. I mean that literally. My parents took me to Church on the first Sunday of my life, and I have been mostly faithful clear through to today. There has never been an extended time in my life without faith. I also mean that spiritually. How does someone live a meaningful life without faith?

My faith teaches me –

1. God created me. I am a child of God. He knit me together in my mother’s womb. I am not the result of a random DNA experiment. My life is not a mistake.

2. God loves me. God created me so that I could spend time in fellowship with him. He is the eternal father who is connected to his children in a profound way that words cannot express. Someone of significance cares about me.

3. I am forgiven. When I chose to walk away from God and openly rebel against his will, he chose to offer forgiveness in Jesus death on the cross. While at times I may feel guilt and shame, those will never define my relationship with God. I am loved beyond my mistakes.

4. I have a purpose. God created me, and then he recreated me in Christ Jesus. He takes both parts and shapes me to serve him in the world. I get to be the hands and feet of Jesus wherever I go. I am not just hoping my life has an impact. I know that God is using me for his purpose.

5. I have a family. I am not the only one that God created, loves, forgives and uses in the world. I am part of a group of people united by the same understanding and experience. There are people like me in almost every place on the globe. Just because of our similar faith we are connected without even knowing each other. I am a part of people who call me their own.

6. I have hope. This life is a journey of learning and growing until I reach a destination. My faith looks at the end of life with hope and joy. I believe there is a heaven, an eternal promised land, waiting for me on the other side of death. I do not look at the future with despair, for me, to die is gain.

While this is not an exhaustive list of my identity in Christ, these are the places my mind lands daily. When the world is telling me, I am just a pile of flesh that is here by random chance. When the people around me are whispering that I am not handsome enough, or smart enough or have achieved enough to have any real value. When people are fighting desperately against their final breath because it will all be over soon. When the world seems dark and depressing, and many have no love or hope. I understand that my faith has made me different.

My life has infinite value and worth. No one can tell me any different.
