The 11th Edition of Global Investigative Journalism Conference tagged GIJC19, has opened in Hamburg, Germany.

Journalism, Hamburg

Welcoming delegates to the conference, the Executive Director of Global Investigative Journalism Network (GIJN), Mr David Kaplan, said it was designed to sharpen the skills of more journalists in promoting accountability and good governance across the world.

Kaplan noted that there was a “growing global backlash against human rights, democracy and an independent press.

“Even in countries where we thought our colleagues were relatively secure, the news media is under serious assault”.

According to him, watchdog reporting is as essential to society as good healthcare, honest cops and a level playing field for businesses to thrive.

He expressed pleasure with the growing popularity of investigative and/or citizen journalism.

The executive director then enjoined the delegates not to be deterred with various threats to their patriotic course.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that no less than 1800 journalists from across the world are participating in the 4-day conference, including Africa with Nigeria leading in number.

Other African countries attending the forum are Niger, Ghana, Liberia, Senegal, Egypt, Morocco, Kenya and Ethiopia.

Over 400 pitches and proposals, as well as 450 fellows from developing and transitioning countries, are featuring at the conference.

Similarly, 250 panels, workshops, 14 networking sessions and special events have been mapped out for the delegates.

742 lakh metric tonnes of Paddy Purchase at MSP?

Paddy Procurement 2020

Food Minister Piyush Goyal said that the Food Corporation of India has purchased 742 lakh metric tonnes of paddy at the minimum support price (MSP) in the Kharif season. Which is 18 percent more than the previous season. He told that the government had procured 627 lakh metric tonnes of paddy in the financial year 2019-20.

At the same time, according to Food Minister Piyush Goyal, 130 million tonnes of paddy has been procured in Punjab so far this season, which is 37% higher than the 95 lakh tonnes of the previous season. In Uttar Pradesh, 3.90 lakh tonnes of paddy has been purchased in the current season as against 76,000 tonnes in the previous year. In Tamil Nadu, it has reached 3.56 lakh tonnes as against 34 thousand tonnes.

In the coming 15 days, 2 lakh metric tonnes of moong, urad, and tur dal will be sent from buffer stock to various states and union territories. So that there is no shortage of pulses in the market. He said that during the lockdown, the ration was distributed to 80 crore people in the country without any hindrance.

Speaking on the rising prices of onions, the Food Minister said that the government had banned the export of onions on 14 September. At the same time, he said that the government has also started importing onions and so far 7,000 tonnes of onions have arrived in the country, with more than 25,000 tonnes expected before Diwali.

On the other hand, the government is constantly trying to curb the price of onions and potatoes. NAFED on Saturday called for bids from importers to supply 15,000 tonnes of the red onion by November 2020. The aim is to curb the rising prices of onions in the country and increase the availability in the domestic market. NAFED has bid to supply 40 to 60 millimeters of red onion from any country by November 2020. The price of this onion should be up to Rs 50 per kg.

According to the tender, importers can bid for a minimum supply of 2,000 tonnes. These can be made available in several lots of 500 tonnes.

Discussion in 'MCSE' started by CCNA MCSE, Oct 8, 2004.

  1. No, I got no calls at all. I made a mistake and retracting it and
    apologizing was the right thing to do.

    Here you will see my reply to Jason, himself, in, where
    he posted a single rant, peppered with his usual misrepresentations,
    "orders" and threats:

    You can use Google and check the thread. The fact is that Jason was
    right about that one point. I originally assumed that Jason either
    made up the company name that he used or he hijacked it for his own

    However, it turns out that there was an agreement between Hot Lava
    Software and Jason Gastrich.

    That Jason violated that agreement and took advantage of it is beside
    the point. If I make a mistake and I catch it, I'll correct it. If
    someone else corrects it, I'll acknowledge it and retract it.

    Again, that's just the right thing to do.

Is High Fructose Corn Syrup Healthier Than Sugar?

Sugar is no better for you than high fructose corn syrup.

Peter Dazeley / Getty Images

High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) and regular sugar are about the same, nutritionally. Both may negatively impact your health, but are fine to consume in moderation. Eating too much of either one might promote weight gain, and neither sweetener has any nutritive value beyond the calories. Some people believe HFCS is more dangerous to your health than regular table sugar, but those claims aren't based on sound scientific findings.

Sugar Chemistry

Each molecule of table sugar, chemically known as sucrose, is made up of two single sugar units called glucose and fructose. Glucose is the sugar your body likes best for energy, and it's found in all the sugary and starchy foods you eat. Fructose is the main sugar found in fruits. Your body can use fructose as energy too; it just is not the preferred source of fuel and therefore requires a little more work.

All sugar, whether white sugar, brown sugar, turbinado sugar or honey, is the same—half fructose and half glucose.

High fructose corn syrup is produced from cornstarch, and it's also made up of fructose and glucose molecules. Not exactly half and half, like sugar, but close; formulations range from about 42 percent to 55 percent fructose. The name, high fructose corn syrup, may cause some confusion, as the amount of fructose may be "high" in comparison with regular corn syrup (which is actually low in fructose) but actually is about the same as regular sugar.

Both sugar and HFCS have about the same metabolism and the same effect on your health—that is, if you eat too much, the extra calories get stored as fat.

Why Is HFCS Demonized?

There are a couple of reasons, both having to do with misunderstanding research. One reason involves a little conflation of research studies and the other is about confusing correlation and cause.

First, the fructose conflation. Studies performed with lab animals indicated eating diets high in fructose could lead to excessive weight gain, insulin resistance, high blood pressure, and high triglycerides—all bad things. Since "fructose" sounds a lot like "high fructose corn syrup" and nothing like "regular sugar," some people conflate the two and decide HFCS is dangerous, but that somehow sugar isn't so bad.

It's possible that getting a large percentage of your calories from fructose every day could cause more weight gain than calories consumed from other sugar sources, at least if you are a lab rat (human studies haven't backed up that claim). But what if you just eat too much fructose in general—because you eat too much food? And what if a lot of that fructose comes from HFCS because it happens to be a common ingredient in many packaged foods we eat? That brings me to the second reason for demonizing HFCS, confusion between cause and correlation.

High fructose corn syrup is cheaper than regular sugar, so its use as an ingredient in processed foods and beverages has increased over the past few decades. During that same time, rates of obesity, cardiovascular disease, and type II diabetes have also gone up in the United States. Some people blame the increase in the concurrent rise of HFCS consumption.

The increased caloric intake from HFCS might be part of the problem—not because HFCS is inherently evil, but because Americans have increased their calories in general. In that case, an overall increase in all added sugars—regardless of whether they come from table sugar or HFCS—may be to blame.

Who's the Winner?

There isn't a winner here; HFCS and regular sugar are both okay in moderate amounts and both may impact poor health outcomes if eaten in excess—but about equally; one isn't worse than the other. Too much sugar or HFCS will have a negative effect on the body by increasing the levels of blood lipids like triglycerides and can contribute to weight gain when you consume too much.

How much is too much? That depends on your overall daily calorie needs, but you can probably have about 100 to 200 discretionary calories to spend on a few grams of sugar or HFCS every day. The new 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines advise limiting all added sugar intake—from any source—to less than 10% of your daily energy intake.

The Discovery and History of Lithium as a Mood Stabilizer

Antidepressant pills in cookie cutter
Peter Dazeley / Getty Images

When was lithium first discovered as a drug for mental health, and what is the history of this medication? How does it actually work? And what is the current thought and controversy considering the role of lithium in the treatment of bipolar disease?

Lithium is a naturally occurring element (number three on the periodic table) that was first discovered in 1817 and was found in mines in Australia and Chili. Its mood-stabilizing effects, however, were not recognized until late in that century. In fact, some concluded that gout was the cause of mood disorders.

Lithium-rich mineral springs have historically been touted for their healing properties. It was first used for mania in the late 1800s, with Denmark leading the way, but little was published about the medication for more than half a century.

It was Australian psychiatrist John Cade who, in 1949, published one of the first papers on the use of lithium in the treatment of acute mania. From that time on, lithium was increasingly prescribed.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) did not approve lithium for use until 1970. The use of lithium in the U.S. began later, and shifted to other drugs earlier, compared to many other countries around the world.

How It Works

Knowing that lithium is a naturally occurring element, one might think that prescribing the drug may support a deficiency. However, research has never indicated that that bipolar disorder is caused by a lithium deficiency. Rather, it happens that this naturally occurring substance has the fortunate effect of acting as a mood stabilizer.

For over 50 years, manic-depressive people were treated with lithium even though medical science did not have a clear understanding of why or how it worked. (The name manic-depressive disorder was officially changed to bipolar disorder in 1980.)

Although the exact mechanisms by which lithium exerts its mood-stabilizing effects are not fully known, there has been much contemporary research into this question. Lithium interacts with a number of neurotransmitters, neuron receptors, and other chemical systems in brain cells.

Neurotransmitters and Mental Health

How do messages in one part of the brain travel, and in doing so, result in actions? It's only been in the last few decades—when scientists have isolated neurotransmitters, the chemical messengers of the brain that act to convey information from one region to another—that we are beginning to understand this process.

Neurotransmitters are contained at the end of one neuron (or nerve.) An electrical impulse travels along the nerve and results in neurotransmitters being released into the space (the synapse) between one nerve and the next. Some neurotransmitters bind to receptors on the next nerve cell, which respond by transforming that message into another electrical impulse.

Neurotransmitters that are left in the synapse (those which do not bind to receptors on the next neuron) are taken back up into the original neuron to be used again.

There are several types of neurotransmitters in the brain. Some of these include:

  • Serotonin
  • Norepinephrine
  • Dopamine
  • Acetylcholine
  • GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid)
  • Glutamate

Lithium is thought to interact with many of these systems in complex ways.

Other Potential Uses

In addition to bipolar disorder, lithium is sometimes used in the treatment of unipolar depression (major depression) and schizoaffective disorder.

Because of lithium's stabilizing effect on glutamate receptors, scientists are also studying whether this medication can protect from the cell death that occurs in conditions such as Parkinson's, Huntington's, and Alzheimer's disease.

Toxicity and Side Effects

As with many medications on the market, lithium comes with a list of side effects and precautions. Lithium toxicity can be very serious, with both acute and chronic effects. The side effects of lithium are common as well, and as with many mental health medications, these side effects often interfere with its use.

In addition, lithium is known to interact with a wide variety of medications, such as other mental health drugs, blood pressure medications, and some painkillers.

There are few medications available for the treatment of bipolar disorder that do not have significant side effects.

Role in Treatment of BPD

The answer to the question, "What role should lithium play in the treatment of bipolar disease today?" will vary depending on who you ask and where you live.

In addition to a roller-coaster history, there are widely varying opinions regarding the use of lithium today. Some clinicians have called lithium "dangerous nonsense" whereas others view lithium as the best established long-term treatment available for bipolar disorder. Some professionals claim that lithium is the single most important treatment for mental health which has been discovered.

As with many other issues related to mental health, the real answer probably lies somewhere between these extremes and is reflected in different practices around the world.

The United States has the reputation of being the "last in and first out" with regard to the use of the drug, being late among countries to adopt its use, and early to recommend alternatives (other mood stabilizers such as Depakote (valproic acid) and antipsychotic medications).

In the U.S., lithium is seldom used as a first-line treatment for people with bipolar disorder, though it is still frequently used for severe bipolar disorder in combination with other medications.

However, a 2017 study suggested that there is a strong role for lithium first line in the treatment of mania in the elderly. There is also evidence to support lithium's role in decreasing suicide risk.

The Bottom Line

The history of lithium is an interesting study in scientific discovery and the methods scientists have used to investigate the chemical nature of mood disorders in the brain.

This newer understanding of the chemical messengers in the brain responsible for mental health disorders is important in further reducing the stigma of mental health disorders. While there is still a long way to go, and mental health still suffers more of a stigma than say heart disease, the research going on today—such as the mechanism by which lithium works—is an excellent step in the right direction.

An excerpt from "Women Overseas Memoirs of the Canadian Red Cross Corps"

This story is submitted by Susan Ruttan of the Bureau of Pensions Advocates in Victoria. It is excerpts from her mother's memoirs of when she was stationed overseas with the Red Cross. This story has been published in a book entitled "Women Overseas - Memoirs of the Canadian Red Cross Corps". We have been given permission to use this story from the editor, Frances Martin Day, and the publisher, Rondale Press.

"In August of 1943 word came that I could be in the next draft to go overseas in the voluntary Canadian Red Cross Corps.

September of 1943 became an exciting month – getting uniforms tailored, packing a trunk of essentials, preparing for a sudden call. This call came later in the month and Sheila Leather and I departed from Hamilton. We were joined in Toronto by a few others, then more in Montreal, and one more in St. John, N.B. We were a varied and happy group, getting to know each other and anticipating our adventure. The Red Cross ladies of St. John were very hospitable, and we were advised to have Wills made out and a very kind lawyer, Mr. Ritchie, did this for several of us free of charge. When and where we would be sailing was a deep, dark secret. There was a very small ship we could see sitting out in the harbour – perhaps this was the tug that would take us out to a ship somewhere.

We were finally aboard the 'tug,' a small Norwegian vessel named Mosdale and learned that Capt. Sunde and his pretty Canadian wife, Fern, who was the wireless Officer, and crew had attended a ceremony in Cardiff, Wales – a couple of weeks before – where King Haakon of Norway had decorated them for having taken over 50 trips across the Atlantic carrying more than 60,000 tons of food to Britain, all without benefit of convoy. This would be one more trip carrying us nine girls and two men from Time and Life magazines. We found out later that the crew almost mutinied before sailing as most, if not all, Mosdale's sister ships had been torpedoed. They sailed alone as they couldn't keep up with a convoy.

At the time we were on the High Seas, Churchill made one of his famous speeches – 'There is a convoy on the Atlantic at the present time being attacked by U-boats.' As a matter of fact, I think I felt like death anyway, being seasick as soon as the little ship was underway. We had to sleep in our clothes and have our life jackets and kit at hand in case we were hit as we were told we would have no more than a minute to get up on deck for the lifeboats.

We zig-zagged across to Liverpool in thirteen days, at time near the Azores I think as it was so pleasantly warm, and then by train to London. We were met at a station in London that had obviously suffered considerable bomb damage, and taken to Maple Leaf Club #2 on Cromwell Road where we were greeted, given a cup of tea and advised of the Rules & Regulations, some of which that we were not to marry for at least six months, and we were not to get pregnant!

The next morning we were taken to our headquarters, at that time on Berkley Square, and greeted officially, then taken to offices to get our individual ration coupons and unemployment insurance records. We were then FREE – for ten glorious days.

Back in London, leave over, it was time to get to work. A list was posted and I was down to be at Maple Leaf Club #1 on Moreton Street down the Vauxhall Bridge Road from Victoria Station, to do General Duties. This was our first introduction to Miss Duff, a Scottish lady in navy blue uniform of the British Red Cross, attached to our Canadian Corps to oversee the personnel of the Maple Leaf Clubs.

The job at Maple Leaf #1 was very active indeed, as it was a popular place for Canadian boys of the Army, Air Force and Navy when they came to London on leave. In fact it became almost home to some of the boys, some we got to know very well. It was apparently a treat to hear our Canadian voices, especially for those boys who had been in England for years. We laughed and joked with many and tried to cheer up those who were lonesome.

The Club was filled to the roof during the fall of '43 and spring of '44. Sometimes we had to make up extra beds on the floor of their lounge and writing room. We worked long hours – serving meals, scrubbing tables, making beds, manning the telephone and reception desk, and generally making ourselves useful, while at the same time talking and laughing with the boys, and listening to often horrendous stories particularly from navy and air force boys.

Most of the boys were great fellows and we certainly had lots of fun. We got to know some, especially air force boys who were crew in bombing raids over Germany, as they had more frequent leaves and we were saddened all too often when we heard of boys who were missing.

The hours we were on duty were long – before 8 a.m. until 7 p.m., with a couple of hours off in the afternoons. Sometimes we had more hours off in the afternoons, then worked 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. We had one day off a week, and usually we were off the day before by 4 p.m. Despite the lengthy working hours, we all managed to have delightful dates and many adventures with old friends who unexpectedly came to town. The air raids were frequent at this time, usually at night, but this didn't deter us from getting out and about whenever we could. Every day was different, and I met many interesting people. We soon learned the importance of leaving where ever we were in time to catch a tube as they closed down by midnight, and taxis were almost impossible to find, especially when an air raid was on.

The tube stations were an unforgettable sight. There were bunks stacked against the walls occupied by families, and the overflow made up beds on the platforms between the bunks and the trains. We had to step gingerly over sleeping bodies to reach the doors of the trains. I think they felt safer than in air raid shelters, or perhaps they liked the companionship, confusion and noise.

When the bombing raids were in or near our area we were urged to go to the basement so we could be away from flying glass. One night I watched for a while from a little balcony (I wasn't too keen on being in the basement), it was quite a show with the search lights scanning the skies and many planes overhead, and I saw one plane come down in flames into the Thames only a few blocks away – hopefully it was one of theirs! Then a flare floated down in front of me – a bomb usually followed a flare, but that night it didn't – I was lucky. Some of our windows were broken that night though. Another night a barrage balloon was hit and came down in front of the Club. A spectacular sight was another night that huge flames lit up the sky – we found out later it was a paint factory.

Christmas time came and the Club was overflowing as usual. We managed to find a lovely Christmas tree and we got the boys to help us put it up in the dining room and decorate it with strings of popcorn and cranberries and whatever we could scrounge, mostly out of parcels from home – bows and ribbons, and we sang the good old Christmas carols with the boys. On Christmas Eve I went with Ted C. to a beautiful dance at his Mess near Epsom Downs. He took me to the home of friends of his where I dressed for the dance, and later had a couple of hours' sleep before being picked up by an Army vehicle and taken back in the cold and frosty morning to the Club in time to serve breakfast to the boys. Later on that day we served a traditional Christmas dinner with turkey and plum pudding and tables decorated gaily with a Christmas stocking for each of our guests containing socks, cigarettes, candies and oranges. And after that, the tables were re-set and we girls sat down and the boys served us. It was great fun!"

Security licensing holdup criticized

Employer defies “onerous” bureaucracy

William Toulmin is willing to take his chances of a $575 fine.

As the Victoria branch manager of United Protection Services, he has a job to fill, an employee willing to work but no ability to get the necessary licence on time.

“I’m going to send her to work and we’ll see what happens,” Toulmin said.

Sandra Isaak took the required 40-hour security basic training online through the Justice Institute of B.C. She completed the $315 course on Jan. 15, but when she tried to schedule an exam, was told there were none scheduled.

While several companies in town are authorized to provide the course, only the Justice Institute is authorized to conduct the exams.

Last week, Isaak learned the next available exam date will be Feb. 16.

That’s not the end of her wait, however.

Exams typically take one to three weeks to process, followed by a three- to four-week wait for a licence.

“All this for an $11 to $12 job,” said Toulmin. Because security guards make so little, the wait can mean the difference between living in their car or not living in the car, he added.

In Vancouver, examinations are offered every Saturday but in outlying areas they run less often, said Karen English, the Justice Institute’s manager of security training programs.

While the company tries to accommodate students, exams must be run on a cost-recovery model, she said.

It’s not an explanation Isaak accepts.

“Who is going to pay for my lost wages because there was work that I have missed that my boss was covering and burning himself out doing it  because  I can’t work without a  licence?” Issak asked in an e-mail to the company.

Isaak is now considering going to Vancouver to take the exam, but feels she shouldn’t have to pay the extra cost.

Toulmin said the lack of timely examinations, certification and licensing in Victoria has also contributed to a rash of $575 violation tickets in the city.

In 2010, the B.C. Ministry of Public Safety and Solicitor General issued more than a dozen tickets to companies employing or engaging unlicensed security guards.

Some of those tickets were due simply by a failure to renew a licence.

Others were due to people choosing to take shifts as security guards while waiting to take their exam, said Toulmin.

Airport access fee = fee determined by Melbourne Airport and charged to drivers to access the taxi holding yard

Airport rank fee = amount paid by customers when taking a taxi from a rank at Melbourne Airport regulated by the ESC

Earlier this year Melbourne Airport notified their intention to increase the Melbourne Airport access fee from $2.70 to $3.58 effective 1 November 2016.

It is the VTA’s understanding that the airport access fee falls under the regulatory responsibility of the ACCC. The VTA is not privy to how the Airport calculates the charge to drivers but our key concern was to ensure driver were not left paying the shortfall between the access fee and the rank fee payable by customers.

The substantive review of taxi fares by the Essential Services Commission did not have time to consider the impact of this change so initiated a subsequent process to consider this change. On 17 October, the ESC released a determination which allows taxis to pass on the full amount of the access fee to passengers on the meter.

From 1 November, taxi drivers will be allowed to charge customers the amount that has been published by Melbourne Airport on its website and in a widely circulated newspaper in Victoria. The airport rank fee is not required to be on the meter, but drivers are required to offer a receipt with the airport rank fee itemised on it.

The ESC used this opportunity to make various minor changes to the wording of the taxi fare determination to clarify and simplify it.

See the ESC website for more information

 Updated fare stickers

Melbourne Airport have created updated fare stickers to reflect the change to the Melbourne Airport access fee and thus rank fee. We have requested a number be sent the VTA – please email to request some. In the meantime, stickers can be collected from building 219 security office at Melbourne Airport.

 Melbourne airport access cards

Skidata has advised that all 125mHz access cards will no longer be operational from 1 January 2017. These type of cards were last issued at Melbourne Airport approximately 3 years ago but there are still around 2,500 of these cards in circulation. Users of the cards with an orange logo will be unaffected.

Automated sprinkler systems in Victoria British Columbia

4 Benefits of Automated Sprinkler Systems in Victoria

Some Benefits of Automated Sprinkler Systems in Victoria

The installation of automated sprinkler systems in Victoria is always a worthwhile home improvement project. Not only can it increase the value of your property by helping you maintain healthy landscaping, but it will allow you, your family, and your friends to get more enjoyment out of your outdoor space.

    Compared to hand-watering or manual sprinklers, there are 4 fantastic benefits to choosing a Victoria Garden Sprinklers automated irrigation system for your Victoria, BC property.

    1) Automated sprinklers save water

    • Automated sprinkler systems in Victoria use less water than other property watering methods you could choose because they function much more efficiently. They use exactly the right amount of water each time, ensuring that your landscaping is not under-watered or over-watered.
    • Furthermore, automated sprinklers allow you to customize how much water different areas of your property receive, helping different varieties of plants to flourish. Exact irrigation is key to successful water conservation.
    • Make sure to set automatic sprinklers to water your lawn at night, to avoid evaporation loss.

    2) Automated sprinklers save money

    By using water more efficiently, automated sprinklers will easily help you save money on your water bill. The savings you'll make over the lifetime of your system easily justify making the upgrade. As your plants will live longer and healthier lives, you'll save money on landscaping costs as well!

    Having automatic irrigation in Victoria, BC is particularly beneficial because of how often it rains. An automatic system with rain sensors will be able to detect periods of heavy rain and will deactivate, further helping you save money. Once the rain stops, the system will turn on again.

    3) Automated sprinklers save time

    Nothing compares to the ease of having automated irrigation water your Victoria, BC lawn. Watering by hand can take several backbreaking hours, especially if you have a lot of different plants. Even moving manual sprinklers here and there around your lawn can be tedious and time consuming.

    As automatic sprinkler systems in Victoria can be installed with handy timers and sensors, you won't have to constantly monitor whether certain areas have received enough water yet. This will take a good deal of the stress out of maintaining your landscaping.

    4) Automated sprinklers can be professionally installed and maintained

    Easily the best thing about an automated sprinkler system is that it can be installed and maintained by professional contractors. A trusted contractor will make sure that you receive an irrigation system suited to your specific needs, and that any needed repairs are carried out in a timely manner.

    At Victoria Garden Sprinklers we provide both automatic sprinkler system design, installation and irrigation repairs and renovations. We'll see to it that your new irrigation system is designed to meet the irrigation requirements of your property, and that your system runs at optimal efficiency during its entire operating life. Professional installation and maintenance will help you maximize how much you can save with an automatic sprinkler system.

    If you're interested in the benefits of automated irrigation in Victoria, BC, then don't hesitate to get in touch with Victoria Garden Sprinklers and ask about automatic sprinkler installation today!

4 Trade Show Trends You Should Adopt for 2019

exhibition event

Did you know that trade show booths and trade show trends are always evolving from year to year? As more technology becomes available, design trends are introduced and customer behaviour changes, trade shows evolve as well.
If your business attends trade shows regularly, you’re going to see this evolution happen in front of you. This also means that as other businesses evolve, so should you. Trade show trends for each year are created with the intent of enhancing customer experience and business outreach.
Based on this, the following are a few trade show trends that you need to apply to your business in 2019:

1. Customer-Oriented Designs

As previously stated, more trade shows are incorporating designs that enhance the customer experience. One of the key things is to be subtle in your approach. Modern customers do not like being bombarded with marketing signs, logos, or other marketing material. Instead, a more subtle design will capture their attention more. It’s also more likely to evoke an emotional response from them, which will help them remember your business more. In this case, it’s good to remember that less is more.

2. Create an Ambiance

Going in line with subtlety, it’s important to create booths that have a more relaxed appearance. This is why you’ll see lavish trade show stands that have comfortable couches that look inviting and relaxing. It’s also going to make your stand more prominent, especially given the hectic and crowded environment of trade shows.
More businesses are looking to turn their stands into an oasis where their target audience can come in to relax. This emotional connection will also make them look upon your business in a positive light. Another plus point of this is that your staff will also be in a better mood and interact well with your customers. It’s a win-win situation!

3. Be Multi-Sensory in Approach

This is one of the hottest trade show trends because it gives you such a huge edge over your competitors. Most stands are already multi-sensory in their approach – they incorporate the sense of sight and sound. However, to truly differentiate yourself, try to tap into the sense of smell and even touch.
In this case, the food industry trade shows can be very interesting because you can smell all the fresh goodies and samples they are offering. However, other industries don’t have to rely on freshly baked cookies. Well-scented stalls are going to get a higher number of attendants. Just make sure to pick your scent properly. Even hot coffee can be an attractive smell for many.

4. Catch the Right Light

Lighting should never be overlooked because it goes in line with creating an ambiance and also helping your stand look different. More trade show stands designs incorporate backlighting, particularly to enhance their major display areas.
The unique use of lighting can help to add a much-needed pop of colour to your overhead displays. This means that you’re able to attract the eye, even from far away. It’s a very fun and easy way to get more visitors to your stall.
By paying attention to these trade show trends, you can ensure that you have a stand that fits in with ease!

The Good Life – Good or Bad: The Choice is Ours

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if we changed our perceptions of the world just a little bit – specifically, the commonly held perception that life equates to struggle. How many times have we heard or said things like “Life is tough,” or “You really have to fight to survive out there”? If we are honest about it, how many times do we expect the worst-case scenario, and yet fail to adequately prepare for it, as opposed to expecting the best, and diligently making sure that we’re prepared for the worst?

From my experience, it is a rare person who does not get out of bed some days feeling agitated and annoyed with the world or feeling that something bad is going to happen. For me, those are usually self-fulfilling prophecies. As soon as I pull out of the driveway, someone will cut in front of me. I arrive for an important interview and find that there is a run in my nylons. My credit card will somehow disappear from my wallet. On those days, I find out at work that I didn’t get the big account I had been working on, or that one of my co-workers has complained about me behind my back.

In contrast, on other days, I wake up well rested and with the invincible feeling that everything will go well for me today. I wait patiently for the driver in front of me to make his maneuver. I have a good laugh at myself for my absent-mindedness when things go wrong. I realize on those days that every failure is a learning experience, and every criticism helps me to become a better person. I certainly don’t take them to heart. Sure enough, on these days, I find that my soul becomes a sort of magnet to attract positive things my way. A project that had me completely stumped for weeks suddenly becomes crystal clear and falls into place. I take the time out for lunch with an old friend, and the laughter revitalizes me.

I wonder what would happen if we consciously decided to approach life from a wholly different angle. What it we decided, for a set period of perhaps a day or two, to assume that life is actually good? What if we truly believe in our hearts that everything that happens to us, including things such as losing a job or the end of a relationship, is for the best? What if we gave ourselves over to the radical idea that the forces controlling the universe are kind and loving, rather than wrathful and judgmental? Do you think that something terrible would befall us if we were to relinquish our cares and worries for a while? Or do you think that our everyday lives would be enhanced and enriched?

Our teams design and build complete solutions for trams, whatever the technique or rail profile. For maximum comfort, safety, and reliability, we have developed monobloc switches that are machined in the mass, thereby optimizing the total cost of ownership of switches (LCC: Life Cycle Cost).

Thanks to multiple areas of competence and experience, Vossloh has made a major contribution to the development of modern tram systems.

We produce all types of turnouts using flat bottom rails or grooved rails: connection turnouts, diamond crossings, single or crossed scissors crossovers, double junctions, combs, adjustment switches, californian turnouts and others, in accordance with the various tangents and usual radii.

Our turnouts adapt perfectly to specific geometrical constraints, permitting tramway traffic movements in optimum conditions of safety and comfort for passengers. They also take account of environmental constraints in order to reduce the noise levels to a minimum to protect the well-being of residents.

The range of turnouts for tramways from Vossloh very significantly reduces costs related to laying and maintenance works.

A full range of services for all rail projects:
  • Project Installation studies, alignment recommendations, choice of turnouts
  • Production Pre-assembly, assistance with laying, on-site commissioning and in-track acceptance, inspection of turnouts and signalling systems
  • Maintenance and after-sales service Inspection, diagnostics, maintenance, renovation, technical assessments
  • Training Installation or maintenance of turnouts or signalling systems

Watch: John Oliver explains how Facebook is wreaking havoc overseas

The Last Week Tonight host went all-in on Facebook’s role in stoking political unrest in places like Myanmar.

John Oliver went all-in on Facebook during Sunday’s edition of Last Week Tonight. But his focus wasn’t any of the usual reasons for which Facebook has sustained intense criticism over much of the past year.

Skipping over the issues of privacy concerns, fake news, and government criticism that have put Facebook in the recent spotlight, Oliver instead devoted the segment to a far more dire concern that doesn’t typically receive as much attention here in the US: Facebook’s role in the spread of hate speech and violence — and their effects on democracy — overseas.

Oliver outlined a number of ways in which Facebook has helped amplify fringe extremism with deadly consequences in regions like the Philippines and Myanmar. Particularly in Myanmar, where Rohingya Muslims have been the target of ethnic cleansing by the country’s Buddhist-led government, Facebook has been heavily criticized for inflaming violence.

In March, Marzuki Darusman, the chair of a UN fact-finding mission on human rights in Myanmar, stated of Facebook’s controversial presence there that it had “substantively contributed to the level of acrimony and dissension and conflict ... hate speech and incitement to violence on social media is rampant, particularly on Facebook.”

Oliver argues that Facebook has contributed to these problems through a combination of relentless emphasis on growth and “connecting people,” a slowness to admit that it has caused harm via its influence in certain communities, and an even slower willingness to step in and change. Not helping, Oliver says, are algorithmic quirks that do damage when met with cultural differences and translation errors — like a disastrous feature that added balloons and confetti to survivor posts after an Indonesian earthquake.

Oliver also pointed out that Facebook spent years refusing to ban one of Myanmar’s most extreme and hate-inciting public figures, despite his having produced posts that sparked anti-refugee violence in the past. “That is just one example of the extent to which Facebook became an echo chamber of Islamophobia” in Myanmar, Oliver said.

Finally, he highlighted just how many people in Myanmar seemed content to receive distorted and xenophobic information from Facebook, using footage of interviews in which people parroted ideas from inflammatory posts they had read. “That is very, very dangerous,” he said, “because no one should be judged by the worst things people say about them on Facebook.”

Parts of the UK could see record-breaking overnight temperatures this weekend as the mini heatwave continues.

London and the South East have endured sweltering heat over the past few days, with no let-up expected until the middle of next week.

Friday saw the hottest August day in 17 years, with the mercury hitting 36.4C at Heathrow and Kew Gardens.

The record for the hottest August day is 38.5C, set at Faversham on August 10 2003.

The current record maximum temperature for the UK is 38.7C, reached in Cambridge Botanic Garden on July 25 last year.

Friday saw crowds of people heading for the coast, with images of packed beaches, traffic jams and full car parks shared widely on social media.

By Friday afternoon, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council’s beach check app showed 19 of its 24 beaches under red alert, warning people to avoid the areas because safe social distancing was not possible.

Many more people are expected to make the journey this weekend.

The Met Office has warned more records could be matched or even toppled in the coming days with some very hot and sticky nights on the way.

Temperatures in parts of south-east England will remain above 20C, potentially matching the record of 23.9C which was set in Brighton on August 3 1990.

The Met Office has issued a level three heat-health warning for the South and South East, meaning the public should look out for others, particularly the elderly, children and people in poor health.

Ishani Kar-Purkayastha, consultant in public health at Public Health England, said: “This summer, many of us are spending more time at home due to Covid-19.

“A lot of homes can overheat, so it’s important we continue to check on older people and those with underlying health conditions, particularly if they’re living alone and may be socially isolated.”

But dark clouds are gathering on the horizon.

Dan Harris, Met Office deputy chief meteorologist, said thunderstorms are on the way, with some places likely to be hit with up to 80mm of rain in just a few hours.

“We’ve issued a broad thunderstorm warning for Monday and Tuesday for all parts of the UK, since although the ingredients are there, it’s just too early to pinpoint the details of exactly where and when thunderstorms will occur,” he said.

“As such, we will be monitoring the developing signals closely and I urge people to keep a close eye on Met Office warnings and forecasts over the coming days.”
