Online:Anniversary Jubilee

Elder Scrolls Online: Events
Chef Donolon

The Anniversary Jubilee is a holiday event that typically takes place in the month of April and May. It is a yearly celebration of the release on ESO. During this event players can obtain a 100% XP buff and the opportunity to acquire a variety of items. The festival also has a special quest associated with it, named Ache For Cake, which repeats every year. A notable feature of the event is the inclusion of Anniversary Jubilee Gift Box — special reward containers that grant players various event-themed items.

Anniversary Jubilee Gift BoxEdit

This box contains a variety of crafting-related materials, intended for celebrants of the Anniversary Jubilee.

An Anniversary Jubilee Gift Box can be obtained by completing daily or weekly quests during the event. Multiple can be earned each day. Each Gift Box contains a selection of items, some of which related to the Anniversary Jubilee. This includes crafting motifs, recipes, furnishing plans and crafting materials (style materials, ores, raw materials, wood, dust, potency runestones, provisioning ingredients, solvents). All of these items can be traded with other players. Rewards vary slightly each year as detailed below.

Jubilee CakeEdit

A unique feature of the Anniversary Jubilee is the Jubilee Cake, baked by Chef Donolon. Once the Ache For Cake quest has been completed, the cake is granted as a Memento that can be called into the world. Once placed, anybody within your group can take a slice and receive a two-hour 100% XP buff that stacks with any other active XP bonuses. The cake's appearance changes every year, becoming taller and more elaborate. Once the event is over, the cake can still be summoned and interacted with, but does not grant the XP buff.

Seven Year Anniversary, 2021Edit

The 2021 Jubilee Cake
Eat cake and enjoy bonus XP and rewards during the Anniversary Jubilee in-game event and join us in celebrating ESO’s 7th birthday!

The Seven Year Anniversary event will run from April 1 to April 15, 2021. The event was initially meant to run until April 13, but was extended on all platforms due to maintenance downtime on the PlayStation servers on April 5, 2021.

Like previous years, you can complete the event's Ache For Cake quest to obtain this year's Jubilee Cake 2021 memento. Using the memento during the event will give you a two-hour 100% XP boost.

Completing daily quests will gift you an Anniversary Jubilee Gift Box, which contains the same loot as last year, with some additions. Notably Imperial Champion weapon style pages will be introduced during the event.

You have the chance of earning a max of 39 Event Tickets during the Event run. Three tickets can be earned a day by using the Jubilee Cake 2021 memento the first time that day. This event, the Impresario will introduce the first two fragments for the Deadlands Firewalker personality: the Vial of Simmering Daedric Brew and Vial of Bubbling Daedric Brew along with the 2021 replica cake and bound pages for the Imperial Champion Style.

Six Year Anniversary, 2020Edit

The 2020 Jubilee Cake

The Six Year Anniversary Jubilee ran from April 2 to April 14, 2020. This event and drops were similar to previous years, including a new 2020 Jubilee Cake Memento, XP buff and Anniversary Jubilee Gift Box.

Notable additions this year were the introduction of the new Jephrine Paladin Style pages and replica Jubilee Cake furnishings.

Crown Store DealsEdit

During the anniversary, there is a discount on Crown Packs. Additionally, several limited and discounted items are available in the Crown Store during this time.

Gifting Event TicketsEdit

During the event there is an exchange where gifting other players five or more Event Tickets in total will see you receive four Gloomspore Crates once the event is finished. The minimum number of tickets needed can be spread between multiple recipients.

Five Year Anniversary, 2019Edit

The 2019 Jubilee Cake

The Five Year Anniversary Jubilee ran from April 4 to May 9, 2019. This event was similar to the previous year (including the XP buff and a new 2019 Jubilee Cake Memento) but ran for five weeks - one week to represent each year since launch.

The activities players partook in to earn a Anniversary Jubilee Gift Box were more varied, with a different one for each week of the event. The first week players earned Gift Boxes by completing crafting writs. The second week was by completing Delve and World Boss Dailies. The third week was by completing Alliance War or Battlegrounds daily quests. The fourth week was by completing daily Pledges for Dungeons and Trials. Finally, the fifth week players could complete any of the previous weeks activities to earn Gift Boxes. In addition, the contents of Gift Boxes were altered slightly each week, giving a chance to drop a different Companion Style page for four of the Five Companions.

Throughout the entire event two Event Tickets could be obtained by interacting with the Jubilee Cake 2019 each day. By the end of the event a total of 72 tickets were obtainable. As such, The Impresario sold a large number of items during the event, included the aforementioned Companion style pages and all four Luminous Berries required to evolve the Nascent Indrik into a Luminous Indrik mount.

Four Year Anniversary, 2018Edit

The 2018 Jubilee Cake

The Four Year Anniversary Jubilee ran from April 4 to April 23, 2018. This event was identical to the previous year, including a new 2018 Jubilee Cake Memento, XP buff and Anniversary Jubilee Gift Box. One notable addition this year was the chance to obtain rarer motif chapters previously only available in Vvardenfell, Horns of the Reach dungeons and the Clockwork City. In addition, this year introduced the chapters from the Worm Cult Style which can only be found in the Anniversary Gift Boxes.

Zemimax Studios also released various statistics after reaching the 10 million players milestone. These included total number of monsters killed, items crafted, most popular race and more.

Three Year Anniversary, 2017Edit

The 2017 Jubilee Cake

The Three Year Anniversary Jubilee ran from April 4 to April 18, 2017. This event was identical to the previous year, but with the introduction of the Anniversary Jubilee Gift Box. These gift boxes could be obtained by completing daily or weekly quests during the event. In addition, a new Jubilee Cake Memento for 2017 was granted to players.

Two Year Anniversary, 2016Edit

The 2016 Jubilee Cake

The inaugural Anniversary Jubilee celebrated the game's two year anniversary. It ran from April 3 to April 12, 2016. The event itself was relatively basic and introduced the quest Ache For Cake, which involved helping Chef Donolon bake his new Jubilee Cake recipe. The 2016 Jubilee Cake Memento was given as a reward, and would result in a 100% Experience bonus for you and your group when activated during the event. Due to a bug with XP buff stacking, the event was extended from April 10 to April 12.

  • There was no event to celebrate the 1st Anniversary of ESO's release in April 2015, however the Welcome Back Weekend event took place around that time.

Shift Worker is designed for people who need a quick and easy way to enter and view their shifts.

A traditional calendar is not always ideal for shift workers. Sometimes it's not easy to see your upcoming shift schedule very clearly, especially if your shifts don't fall into the traditional working week. Shift Worker solves this problem and turns the frustrating task of entry into a quick and easy experience.

Shift Worker allows you to create your own types of shifts by combining visually-attractive icons with letters/numbers so that they can be easily identified at a glance. By including a range of icons (such as suns and stars for day and night shifts) in a variety of colors, any combination is possible for all types of shifts.

Entering shifts can be done quickly by simply selecting a type of shift and tapping on each date it occurs. An entire month of shifts could be entered in seconds, an entire year in a few minutes!

In addition, Shift Worker allows you create multiple calendars to see friends and family shifts! You can send your shifts to others so they can also see your shifts at a glance as an image or in their copy of Shift Worker. To make things even simpler, you can even save your shifts to your iPhone/iPod's background so that referring to your upcoming shift schedule is as simple as picking up your iPhone/iPod.

Shift Worker also includes the ability to create colored personalized notes for each date. Notes can be used anytime additional information needs to be added to a date.

- Create a virtually unlimited amount of shift types
- Enter shifts on the calendar months in advance in seconds
- Add your rotation and automatically fill the calendar in a few simple steps
- Show friends and family shifts using multiple calendars
- View the calendar in timeline format to see your shift flow at a glance
- Create colored personalized notes for any date on the calendar
- Include week of year or week 1/2 alternating pattern on calendar
- Jump to any month by using the "Goto" button
- Save a month's worth of shifts to your background
- Share your shifts to others via email, MMS, Facebook or Twitter
- Import other Shift Worker shifts and view them all within the one app
- No in-app purchases!
- No ads!

Notes only one line

I love this app and use it all of the time but ever since the most recent update version 1.6.2, 3 weeks ago that increased the font size of the notes in calendar and edit display, my notes will only show one line instead of two in Calendar Display. I have to go to “Edit” mode to read my notes and worry I’ll miss an appointment. I have an iPhone 7+ and would think that’s a large enough screen for the previous two lines of Note display. Please correct this.

Needs Added Feature

First off, love the APP. Been using for years. Only qualm I have is I’m still constantly shuffling between two different calendars. We need a way to somehow export this apps events to Apples calendar or the other way around. If you could add a feature to import our existing calendars events on here or the other way around it would be the ultimate. Love the visual aids and customizable setup cause we work some wildly varying hours, just need to easily combine both calendars. Thanks

Legends and Lies ,

Useful, but could be better

My husband is a shift worker, and we use this app to keep track of his schedule. It has been very handy, but it would be SO much better if you could (1) link the app to other calendars like the iPhone calendar, and (2) link the account among family members so the app will automatically update on my phone when my husband updates his schedule on his phone to reflect overtime or a shift swap. Other than that, it’s great!!

App only stores data on your computer, which is great. Can save tasks data to the iCloud and restore it from there though if you want. Clients & Team Members databases helped me very much in my activity to send notification on schedules and appointments as well as assigning tasks. SMS integration with Twilio allows me to send these to any type of phone. The Notes and Whiteboard help during research and meetups. Overall a nice rounded app that I use everyday to organize all my personal stuff and beyond.

Great App!!

It’s a pretty great app for tuning or metronome and all the other things. I have been recommended by others to use it and I have to say that it has been very helpful to me since. If your looking for a good reliable way to tune or to get a metronome this is the way for you.
By weddy4456

Amazing App — One Small Issue

At this point, the app is too cluttered to be useful. When creating metronome playlists, after “Use Tempo” is switched off for all the presets, the entire set does not inherit the tempo set in the header tempo box. Instead, it reverts back to the original tempo of the individual presets. Other than that, it is a really intuitive feature.
By Anigo_O

Love it!

By slowenmusic

Best Ever!!

This is the Best tool ever for improving tone! I am an inspiring soprano saxophonist—it is one of the most difficult instruments to play in-tune. I struggled for an entire year using other resources and methods to develop my tone. Use of the sustain mode using my Bluetooth headphones has trained my ear to almost perfectly matching tone. The Activity Summary is an exceptional daily journal of my progress and has helped me to troubleshoot my embrouchure. Over a three week period my tone quality has improved 65%. I’m SOOOO excited about my progress and future as a sexy senior sax player…. Regardless of where you are in your musical journey Be sure to get this App! Best tool EVER for developing your ear and refining your sound!
By creativephotosol

Very nice app

This app is amazing. I use it daily for tuning and for the metronome. The tones help with long tones. 10/10.
By B O B U X

boring and uninteresting

I downloaded the app assuming that it was gonna be super sick but I soon found it boring and stupid and now I must die.
By LizlovesKai

Best tuner ever

If you play any instrument this is for you. I play the French horn and piano and it works great. The metronome is great and you can play a pitch from any instrument and it is the most real sounding I’ve seen. My band director uses it and my private teacher uses it and they love it. Definitely worth $4.
By AA-Battery633

I’m a fossil so there are lots of features I will probably never use but, the metronome is excellent.
By bikerburt

Get this app if you play an instrument

I play clarinet and it is amazing for helping out with notes and being a metronome
By DJDramaLlama

Great metronome

Literally awesome, it has a smiley face. Jokes aside it is honestly the best tuner and metronome. It’s super customizable and very easy to use. If you’re into music the $5 fee is totally worth it.

New media law for Qatar after Ramadan

Qatar is to enforce its first media law following the holy month of Ramadan, the Minister of Culture, Arts and Heritage said on Saturday (16 June).
Hamad bin Abdul Aziz Al Kuwari said the state cabinet will approve the proposed legislation at its first meeting after the month of fasting, according to Qatar News Agency.
“Qatar will be proud of its law which will be the first of its kind in the entire Arab world,” the minister was quoted as saying.
The draft legislation has taken four years of study, and included briefings by many government bodies as well as journalists, and everyone is now keen to see it become law as soon as possible, said Al Kuwari – addressing the chairmen of the board of directors of youth centres.
“For the first time the Advisory Council discussed proposals from editors and took into consideration the opinion of the culture ministry as well,” the minister said.
The law will abolish prison sentences for journalists, and should therefore live up to the expectations of the media, he added.
The draft law is reported to include 45 articles covering print, broadcast and electronic media in the Gulf state. Online journalism will not be subject to the censors under the new legislation, suggests The Peninsula newspaper.

“Work of the Centre for Waste Water Management (“what happens when you pull the plug”); Brian Lindsay interviews the European editor of the anti-fascist magazine, Searchlight; students from civil engineering contest the quiz”

Highlight on the work of the Wastewater Technology Centre developing new initiatives for wastewater management, and its consultancy work with national and international clients, plus interview with Graham Atkinson, European Editor of Anti-fascist magazine, Searchlight.

0.00 Start
0.45 Jeff Ferguson speaks to Richard Ashley, Co-ordinator and Research Director of the Wastewater Technology Centre, a semi-independent centre within the Department of Civil Engineering, Surveying, and Building. Its objective is to act as a centre for excellence in Scotland for the water industry and to develop new initiatives for wastewater management. One area of expertise is in computer-modelling and monitoring of underground drainage and storage systems. He speaks about the effect of European law on requirements to treat wastewater and sludge before being discharged back out to the North Sea, national proposals to create water boards after Council reform taking effect in 1996, and public health issues related to mixing domestic wastewater and storm water in cities.
08.30 Richard Ashley speaks about the services of the Centre to their large list of clients – a research base undertaking work out of the ordinary for normal consultants, disseminators of information through its substantial international working activities on research groups and consultancies in European countries. The consultancy element might bring new overseas opportunities for extending their work if the Scottish water industry is privatised. Other groups in the country deal with specific areas of wastewater management (e.g. industrial effluent), but the Wastewater Technology Centre at DIT is the only one that has a holistic approach to the whole discipline.
10.20 Quiz– students from Civil Engineering: Scott, Graeme, Joanne, and Phil (no surnames given). Questions on their specialist subject and general knowledge.

He speaks about the teaching approach in the department being an Applied Mathematics approach – one of problem solving and mathematical modelling, and how it is applied to all sorts of real-life situations e.g. Treasury modelling.
5.55 Jimmy Black speaks to John Darpener in the Operational Research Section of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Sciences about the modelling being used in replacement strategies being researched by him and his colleagues for replacing equipment in advance of failure (e.g. engine / machinery parts) and also ensuring they are not replaced too soon.
8.30 Statistician Gilbert Rutherford’s area of expertise is probabilities. He explains why at least 2 people in a room of 23 people or more will share the same birthday, and why statistics affect everyone’s life, especially in the areas of retail and marketing.
11.55 Quiz– students from the Business Studies Department: Alastair Duncan, Lauren Pealie, Ruth MacBurney, and Grant Mackay. Questions on their specialist subject and general knowledge.
18.00 Brian Lindsay’s News Round-up. Emergency meeting of the Students Representative Council to discuss the implications of the government budget proposals to cut student grants by 10%. The grant would be cut from £2200 to £1975. After the meeting, DIT Students Association President Rachel Thomas said the student dropout rate in Scotland had increased by 188% since the introduction of the student loan scheme, and that this further attack on the student maintenance grant would push more students into debt and would undoubtedly force many more to withdraw from their courses. A demonstration march against the proposals will be held on Wednesday in Glasgow, supported by the DIT Students Association, which will provide transport for anyone wishing to attend.
18.55 Community outreach: pupils from Grove Academy and St Johns Academy visited for practical sessions on Applied Physics, and Professor John Milne is delivering a lecture on Mechatronics to 200 school pupils from throughout Tayside. DIT’s Euro students will be meeting the Dundee Lord Provost at the Dundee Chamber of Commerce.
19.20 End of term is approaching, and the final blowout at the students’ union on the Marketgait is the “Snowball Night”, with usual drinks promotions and entertainments.

19.30 Rachel Thomas about her concerns regarding the proposed cuts to the student grant, 10% every year for the next three years; compounded this will leave the grant 27% less than what it was in 1993. She notes the student loan scheme has already increased student dropout rates by 188%. The student dropout rates will increase further as a result of students being unable to support themselves whilst in higher education. Students Association decided to attend an NUS demonstration in Glasgow (one of the largest in the last 10-20 years) against the proposed student grant cuts. She reflects on how much she has experienced in her first term, and how she didn’t expect to have to deal with such serious national issues as President. She wished she had more time to spend on providing a greater diversity of service to DIT students.
22.00 Jim Closs speaks about the improvements in the DIT football team – how they have got to know each other as a team, and the challenge they face in trying to get promoted due to having dropped points early in the season.

0.00 Start
0.55 Brian Lindsay interviews Student President Rachel Thomas about Government plans to change the way that Student Associations are funded in order to ensure money is not misspent on inappropriate party political style campaigning. Activities were to be split into two areas - “core” (funded) and “non-core” (not funded). Core was defined as catering, welfare, internal representation, sports. Argument was that DIT societies were built around educational activities that are good for students to engage in (e.g. science society, quantity surveying societies) and that need funded (e.g. to bring in external speakers). In addition, the proposal to bar students from engaging in political activity. Students associations were impartial in regard to party politics, but there were other political issues that affected students and that they spoke out on (e.g. the student campaign for university status for DIT). The proposed changes would have prevented students from speaking out on these wider issues that affected them and that they had a right involve themselves in. She comments on the importance of the Students Association, run by students for students, that they take responsibility for and that contributes to their rounded education.

Expansion of Scheme to lease local authority flats to students – before the expansion there were 9 flats on Kingsway East and Butterburn Court available to students, and it was hoped to lease more if there was sufficient demand. DIT Football Team was near the bottom of the Midland League Division 2 after being defeated 3-0 by Arbroath High School and they only had 3 points from their first 4 games, caused by injury problems and difficulties raising a team at the beginning of term that led to a game having to be conceded due to insufficient numbers.

0.45 Jimmy Black interviews Dr Karen Sullivan in the Department of Molecular Life Sciences about research on DNA fingerprinting. Discussion on forensic police uses of DNA finger printing for suspect elimination, and her current work using DNA finger-printing to research the effect of environmental stress on the DNA in cells. For the first time finger-printing allows entire strands of DNA to be scanned in order to locate areas undergoing change in response to stress. This can be applied to various different areas, such as crop research (e.g. to help increase resistance to disease or dry environment and pests) to help identify unstable DNA regions to try and understand them in an effort to help fix them. The technique could even be used to combat poaching – analysing the meat of elephant carcasses to see if they were sourced from regions where it was illegal to cull them or not.

An anti racism campaign is being launched across the country too. The events and activities of “Student Fest” are all things that the proposed government changes would prevent, such as debates, charities, anti-racism work, clubs and societies, social events etc even the opportunity for the national student voice to be heard, since the changes would only fund welfare, catering, internal representation and sports.
17.27 Highlight on Graduation Day, with degrees being conferred by Principal Bernard King, including three Hon Fellowships to DIT Alumnis - George Simpson, Chief Executive of Rover Cars and Vice Chair of British Aerospace; Alastair McCallum, Chief Executive at Don and Low Holdings; Roderick Rennit, Director of Water Services for Tayside.

Agatha Christie: Mysteries and the Middle East
Written by Arthur Clark

An impulsive decision to head for the Middle East brought Agatha Christie to a dig at Ur in 1928. There she found the setting for her next novel, and met Max Mallowan, a young archeologist who proposed to her shortly afterward. For the next 40 years both the man and the Middle East were fixed points in her peripatetic and productive life.

Finding the Range
Written by Ron Morris
Photographed by David Klutho

For three years it looked as though the talented Alaa Abdelnaby was going to leave Duke University as a young man with a great future behind him: a hot basketball prospect who never lived up to his potential. But Alaa's father had sacrificed to find opportunity for himself and his family in the United States, and the young man admired his father's pride and fire. "I decided to show myself that I had another side" he said - and he did.

Fishing in the Pondo
Written by Pierre Maas and Geert Mommersteeg

Between Segou and Timbuktu, the Niger River slows and divides its waters among dozens of braided streams and shallow lakes scattered across the flat land. Here in the Pondo, compact villages rest on island-like mounds, each crowned by the towers of its distinctive mud-built mosque. Farmers, herders and fishermen, linked in traditional patterns of trade and craft, share the bounty of the river's annual flood and, in dry years, the pain of drought.

G.C.C.: The Next Decade
Written by John Christie
Illustrated by Norman MacDonald

A forum for consultation, a hotbed of cooperation, and a framework for multinational ventures, the Gulf Cooperation Council will soon be 10 years old. It links Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman and the United Arab Emirates in a multidimensional relationship that includes economic and industrial ventures, cultural ties and political cooperation, and its imitators elsewhere are only one sign of its success.

Poetry in the Blood
Written by Lynn Teo Simarski
Photographed by Chad Evans Wyatt

An Arab literary pioneer in America feared that the new country's beauty would make his compatriots forget their native land. Eight decades later, a prolific crop of Arab-American poets is proving him wrong, writing moving and lucent verse that - whether they are immigrants or American-born - carries in it their memories of the Arab world, their love of language, and their belief in poetry "as indispensable to life as bread."

Remaking Istanbul
Written by John Roberts
Photographed by Ergun Çağatay

Istanbul's legendary beauty, and the glories of its centuries as the capital of three empires, contrasted starkly with its 20th-century ills: urban sprawl, sclerotic traffic, and overtaxed water, gas and sewage systems. The city of 7,000,000 people needed a thorough modernization, and it is getting one. Bridges, highways, a subway system and hydrofoil ferries are going in - and some say that charm, grace and amenities are going out.

Small Creatures of Bahrain
Written by Mike Hill
Photographed by Michael Hill Jr.

Whether they have two legs or four - or six or eight -the wild creatures of Bahrain are one of the island's attractions, especially for long-time residents who can invest the time and patience necessary to make their acquaintance. Most are small and shy of humans, though many are fierce enough on their own diminutive scale, and an observant eye - or camera lens - can capture details of their personalities and behavior.

Three From Jerusalem
Written by Anne Mullin Burnham
Photographed by Nik Wheeler

Exile breaks hearts, and makes art. Three painters who, as children, breathed the same air and saw the same colors, now work in three widely separated parts of the world, unable to return to the soil that nourished them. Their work is different, yet in some ways the same, because exile, for each of them, became a central fact of life and of their painting: Where they are is no more important to them than where they cannot be.

The Arabs of Honduras
Written by Larry Luxner

One of the largest populations of immigrant Arabs in the Americas resides along the north coast of Honduras. From its hardscrabble beginnings more than a century ago, this community has in recent decades provided its adopted country with leaders in education, industry and politics—including Honduras's president, Carlos Flores Facusse.

Beyond the Monsoon
Written by Douglas Bullis
Photographed by Kevin Bubriski

Melaka, now the capital of the Malaysian state of the same name, rose as a Muslim kingdom early in the 15th century. Thanks to its location and its rulers' policies, it became a center for traders from as far away as China, Arabia and Europe, and became as well a regional melting-pot of cultures. Its glory is recalled in Malay epic literature, architecture and Muslim influences on the crucial Malaysian social codes known as adapt.

A Gift of Ghazals
Written by Louis Werner
Photographed by Kevin Bubriski

Deeply rooted in Kashmir and the Urdu language, teaching and writing in English in the United States, Agha Shahid Ali lives an exile's twofold life. He has been recognized as a unique and passionate voice in modern poetry, and is also championing the grafting into English of the ghazal, a poetic form so beloved in Urdu that it inspired competitive, all-night poetry symposia in the Mughal courts of the 18th and 19th centuries.

Living With the Animals
Written and photographed by Joseph J. Hobbs

Kept as pets, hunted for sport and food, offered in sacrifice, mummified by the millions, and believed to house the spirits of the gods—or, later, to be gods—animals played a central role in the life, beliefs and art of Egypt. Jackals escorted the dead through the underworld; hippos protected women in childbirth; a scarab beetle rolled the sun across the sky; deities were portrayed with animal heads; and detailed scenes of the Nile's abundant fish, fowl and wildlife were carved on tomb and temple walls and painted on papyrus. Perhaps no other culture has so intertwined itself with the animal kingdom.

The Musical Pulse of Tunisia
Written by Thorne Anderson

Even its aficionados say that mauf music takes patience to appreciate—let alone play, write down, or compose. But it's deeply embedded in Tunisian culture and under the skin of every Tunisian, harking back to rhythms more than half a millennium old that have been preserved and continually reinvented as a living emblem of national identity.

Inquiring minds are reading Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders’ Petition Against Paulson.

Dear Secretary Paulson:

As a representative of the Bush Administration, you have proposed a financial bailout program of $700 billion – over $2,000 for every man, woman, and child in the country. We are appalled that your proposal puts the cost of this bailout on average Americans; that it contains no provisions reversing failed deregulatory policies; that it allows executives at these failed institutions to continue to make exorbitant salaries and bonuses, and that your proposal contains no help for average Americans who themselves are facing severe economic hardships.

While the Administration has quickly rallied to help Wall Street, it has ignored the needs of the declining middle class. Since President Bush has been in office the wealthiest people in this country have made out like bandits and have not had it so good since the 1920s. The top one-tenth of one percent now earn more income than the bottom 50 percent of Americans and the top one percent own more wealth than the bottom 90 percent. Incredibly, the richest 400 people in our country saw their wealth increase by $670 billion during the Bush presidency.

Having mismanaged the economy for 8 years while continually insisting that, “The fundamentals of our economy are strong,” the Bush Administration, six weeks before an election, wants the middle class of this country to bail out Wall Street to the tune of one trillion dollars. Meanwhile the wealthiest people, those who have benefited most from Bush’s policies and are in the best position to pay, are being asked for no sacrifice at all. This is absurd. …

Click the above link to sign Senator Sanders’ petition.

I certainly do not agree with all of Sanders’ points. However, if a bailout must take place, then I can agree with this point:

Wall Street must ensure that assets purchased from banks are realistically discounted so companies are not rewarded for their risky behavior and taxpayers can recover the amount they paid for them.

Perhaps you can agree with more of them than I can. If you agree with any of them, this is what you can do.

Fax Bernie Sanders

Fax Title: Senator, Don’t Give In: Remember Your Own Petition

Dear Senator Sanders

I applaud your petition that assets purchased from banks must be realistically discounted so that companies are not rewarded for their risky behavior and taxpayers can recover the amount they paid for them.

Mad Rush To Financial Judgment

Today President Bush and Treasury Secretary Paulson are preaching the same story.

  • There can be no delay.
  • Sweeping new Powers for the Fed are needed.
  • The Treasury needs $700 billion dollars.
  • There is no time to study alternatives.

Senator, in your heart you know all of the above are lies.

Who Benefits?

Today Bank of America’s top credit strategy analyst says Paulson Debt Plan May Benefit Mostly Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.

Here is the exact quote: “Benefits, in its current form, will be largely limited to investment banks and other banks that have aggressively written down the value of their holdings and have already recognized the attendant capital impairment” said Jeffrey Rosenberg, Bank of America’s head of credit strategy research.

William Poole Former St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank Weighs In

The Treasury will be stuck with the least-attractive paper, and that means taxpayer losses will be large.

Senator, in this mad rush to financial judgment the taxpayer is last in line. The taxpayer should be first in line. Banks and brokers should be the last in line.

Many alternatives are surfacing.

Those alternatives need to be considered.

It’s time to take a deep breath, step back and admit the United States of America does not need to grant new powers to the Fed and Treasury to survive this fiscal crisis.

Rushing into a solution that puts more pressure on already overburdened taxpayers is exactly the wrong thing to do. The taxpayer knows it and so should Paulson and so should you.

What Others Are Saying

Tom Schlesinger, head of the nonprofit research group Financial Markets Center: “It fails the most basic test of democratic accountability.” It boils down to “give me the money and trust me,” Schlesinger said.

James Angel, a professor of finance at Georgetown University, said the White House appears to be “flying by the seat of their pants.

Alternatives Must Be Considered

That the White House is flying by the seat of its pants is no excuse for Congress to do the same.

The proposal as it stands is totally unworkable. It cannot be modified with simple changes. The proper conclusion is the existing proposal should be scrapped completely and started from scratch with an open mind towards all alternatives.

Senator, Will You Stand Behind Your Own Petition?

Senator, I applaud your stance.

The question I have is this: Do you have the courage of your conviction to stand up for what is right and block this legislation unless and until it is modified accordingly?

America’s eyes are on you Senator. We pray you have the courage of your petition and are willing to block a vote if necessary. We have heard your voice, we now need to see your vote.

Product description

Kamarband is an accessory that adds charm to the demeanour of women. If you have to match your ethnic outfit with the right accessory, it is always the right choice, as it will add sensual elegance. As we all love and are passionate about our beauty, wearing it is a beautiful adornment to maintain it. From ages it has ruled the fashion world with its beautiful designs and completely elegant look.

Tips To Style Kamarband The Right Way

• First of all you should figure out what type of kamarband will go well with your outfit colour and pattern.
• If your outfit has golden embroidery or combination then don’t go for silver kamarpatta jewellery.
• If your Saree or Lehenga has heavy embroidery try to go for simple waist Chain.
• If your outfit is simple, then opt for three layered or two layered Traditional Kamarband to add up light to your look.
• Make sure you don’t go for a broad Kamarband unless it is very important ceremony that you attending.
• To keep it simple yet elegant go for pearl or diamond Waist belt Jewellery this will lift your look with ease.
• If you wearing a Lehenga or Sharara make sure you wear the kamarband a bit above your waist.
• If you are styling it with saree it looks below or on waist.
• Traditional saree like the cotton or silk saree can be styled with Chabbi Chhalla to mainatain the traditional look.
• Avoid overdoing it as it can break your look.

Even with forewarning, challenges remain in developing a proactive response to emerging infectious diseases

Contribution Number: 562

Despite calls for improving responses to emerging infectious diseases of wildlife, management is seldom considered until a disease has been detected in affected populations. Reactive approaches may limit the potential for control and increase total response costs. An alternative, proactive, management framework can identify immediate actions that reduce future impacts even before a disease is detected, as well as prepare actions conditional on disease emergence. We identify four main challenges to developing proactive management strategies for the newly discovered salamander pathogen, Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal). Given that deep uncertainty is a hallmark of wildlife disease management and decisions are often complicated by multiple competing objectives, we advocate using decision analysis to create and evaluate trade-offs among proactive (pre-emergence) and reactive (post-emergence) management. Using principles from decision analysis, natural resources agencies and policy-makers can utilize a variety of tools to improve the development of management strategies for emerging infectious diseases.

The ECD workforce matters, too: profiles, impacts, and support measures during and beyond the pandemic

By Webinar presenters

ARNEC webinar series on young children amidst COVID-19: webinar no.7

This webinar aims to understand the situation of early childhood educators and childcare professionals in the Asia-Pacific Region, the impact of COVID-19 on the ECCE Workforce and discuss interventions to support them during and beyond the pandemic.

The key questions that will be answered in the webinar are:

1. What is the role of the ECD/ECE workforce in fostering access to quality of early childhood education and childcare services?

2. What is the impact of COVID-19 on early childhood educators (pre-school teachers, childcare professionals and daycare workers) in government-supported and privately-run pre-schools and childcare centres in the region?

3. What interventions are necessary for the ECE workforce as pre-schools and ECD centres prepare to re-open and transition to blended learning approaches, including use of online platforms, among others?

4. What can we learn from institutions supporting the ECD workforce to address the impacts of COVID-19 on early childhood educators?

The speakers and topics are found below:

Ms Maki Hayashikawa, UNESCO Bangkok, "ECCE Workforce matters"

Dr. Chiam Heng Keng, Founding President of the ECCE Council Malaysia and Professional Early Childhood Educators (MAPECE),

"Impact of COVID-19 and the Interventions for ECE Workforce"

Ms Samantha Page, Early Childhood Australia

"Supporting educators, teachers and service leaders through the pandemic – information sharing and online professional development"

Ms Tan Lee Jee, PAP Community Foundation, Singapore

"COVID-19: Adapting to change"

This webinar was moderated by Ms Jessica Hampton, Education Advisor at ChildFund Australia and ARNEC Steering Committee Member, (Core Team Representative).

Upcoming: Futura – “Future-Shock” @ Valmorbida (NYC)

Futura may live and work in New York City, but the graffiti legend hasn’t had a solo exhibition in his hometown for over 12 years. That’s all going to change as the artist formerly known as Futura 2000 will be unveiling a large and fresh body of work with Valmorbida (who have put on great shows in the past – here & here & here) come September 6th. We look to see more of the amazing direction he showed us when we saw him in Paris. […]

Streets: Nick Walker (NYC)

It’s been a while since Nick Walker (interviewed) hunkered down in New York to put his vandal in play. Nick recently dropped by to lay down some paint for a few weeks in the Big Apple. While he was here, he worked several parts of Brooklyn, LES and Chinatown. AM tagged along as he  premiered a new composition of his storied Vandal kicking back with a special edition of the New York Times. This piece is located on the bustling corner of Eldridge and Hester in […]

Openings: Nicole Naone – “Mass” @ Human Imagination

Our friend and Hawaiian native Nicole Naone recently made her debut solo at Honolulu’s Human Imagination. Entitled Mass, the exhibition gives us a look at the classic female form through subtle compositions which Nicole hand molded in foam and plaster. Diverse in her mediums, we also caught sight of smooth illustrations and sculptures cast in bronze. A very sweet debut showcasing what the full time artist & part time model has achieved since we last time we saw her at this year’s POW WOW.

Openings: Crazy 4 Cult – Gallery 1988 (NYC)

Last week, AM took a walk down memory lane as the annual Crazy 4 Cult opened its doors to the legions of fans of cult movies and art, especially those who wanted one of the prints from Olly Moss (seen above) based off the film Léon: The Professional. Hosted as usual by Gallery 1988, this year’s showing (the sixth one) was its first time in New York and was as popular as always. Check out our photo set below… Discuss this show here.

Futura: “The Art of Reinvention & History of Collaborations”

Futura has always been a legend in the realm of graffiti and street art. Recently, he has taken a step back towards the limelight in the world of art with a show at Galerie Jerome de Noirmont (covered) and a prominent collaboration with Hennessy on their iconic VS bottle. Unlike many in the current trend of street art, he isn’t a novel flash in the pan – Leonard Hilton McGurr (aka. Futura) has always been relevant. Our friends at Complex put together a comprehensive write up on the […]

Streets: Yayoi Kusama – New York (Part I)

Yayoi Kusama has a long and complicated relationship with NYC. It started in 1957 when she moved out to the Big Apple and set out to make a name in the world of art. Spanning three decades, Kusama stayed until 1973 when she returned to her home country of Japan. Now with her recent retrospective at The Whitney Museum in full swing, Kusama has set to reclaim the city which was her second home. The first project we want to share with you is set up […]

Openings: Ellen von Unwerth, Victor Demarchelier, Bronques – Lexus Laws Of Attraction

The exhibition was broken down into several parts and featured works from photographers Victor Demarchelier, Bronques and a collection of leading street style photographer. The highlight of show was a fresh series from […]

Releases: Joe Sorren – “My Aim Is True”

In preparation for his upcoming show at Jonathan LeVine Gallery, artist Joe Sorren (featured) has a fresh print lined up for fans.
