El Salvador and Chile Sign Academic Cooperation Accord

first_imgBy Lorena Baires/Diálogo September 09, 2016 Thanks to a cooperation agreement signed July 12th in the Salvadoran capital, the Chilean Armed Forces and the National Academy of Political and Strategic Studies (ANEPE per its Spanish acronym) will share its academic advances in the areas of teaching and research on security and defense matters with the Salvadoran Armed Forces’ Superior Strategic Studies College (CAEE per its Spanish acronym). For the Salvadoran Minister of Defense, David Munguía Payés, the CAEE has opened the door for its students to acquire new knowledge, skills and ways of working within the modern armed forces. “We are making the desire to collaborate between the two institutions official; it will foster cooperation in areas of common interest. Our mission is to create strategic leaders who can evaluate our present and future challenges with new perspectives on how to address them,” expressed Minister Munguía. In the opinion of Chile’s Minister of Defense, José Antonio Gómez, the agreement has laid out a new bridge of cooperation that will facilitate the passing on of successful experiences through senior-level instructors and officers at ANEPE. “We have had a working relationship for years. Chile is collaborating with El Salvador, and we intend to continue doing that, now from the academy. Thus, we further strengthen bonds of friendship between the two armed forces,” Minister Gómez said. Both, Major General Felipe Arancibia Clavel, director of ANEPE, and Colonel Roberto Artiga Chicas, director of CAEE, believe that this agreement between the two educational institutions will allow for a better, permanent teaching connection in the military sphere. ANEPE is a higher education institution in Chile that develops teaching, research, and outreach activities aimed at increasing knowledge of defense and security matters, both for armed forces and law enforcement personnel, as well as for the private sector; it is, thus, a point of contact between the civilian population and the military. “One of this academy’s fundamental objectives is to be a national and international meeting place. We have a select number of internal and external professors, and we have the constant support of the Armed Forces, which has made notable efforts to bring us prestigious academics,” highlighted Maj. Gen. Arancibia. His counterpart at the CAEE, Colonel Artiga, took advantage of the opportunity to tell those in attendance that the college has cultivated an environment that fosters individual and collective intellectual thinking, as well as helping to continue modernizing how each of its organizational components constantly learns. “The CAEE’s academic and professional goals have allowed us to create expectations among Salvadoran social leaders and officers interested in studying, analyzing and interpreting the political, economic, social and military situation, both nationally and internationally,” Col. Artiga expressed. One of the most recent academic exchanges between the two countries was the development of a seminar on “Preparation of White Papers on Defense and Modernization of Defense Systems Structure,” in April 2016. According to the Permanent Council of the Organization of American States, white papers are public documents which outline strategic policy frameworks for defense planning. They also outline the appropriate role for the armed forces of a country, within the context of that country’s priorities, as well as legal frameworks and resources. Chile had the opportunity to share its experience with 31 Salvadoran officers, who acquired new knowledge and analyzed the security environment of both countries, both domestically and internationally. “These types of activities are important because we assess a different vision on how to design white papers and defense system structures. This allowed us to share our experiences, which is a very enriching dynamic for our officers,” said Salvadoran Brigadier General Willy Lara, commander of the Salvadoran Armed Forces (FAES) First Military Zone, and one of the seminar’s participants. In the coming weeks, ANEPE and CAEE will create an exchange agenda to develop academic, social and military activities that will allow the knowledge of the members of these entities to be elevated. The FAES has worked alongside Chile’s Armed Forces in United Nations Peace Support Operations. Pursuant to resolution 2180 of the UN Security Council, the FAES has been a member of the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) since February 2013, with 136 military members in the SALCON contingents, attached to the 24th Chile Battalion.last_img read more

first_img“It s a great indicator that the property market is navigating extremely well in the region as real estate continues to transact under current COVID-19 restrictions.”Sold by Julie Mahoney of Ray White, the property last went for $530,000 in January 2015, according to Realestate.com.au.With its grand marina-berth, banks of shimmering glass, a swimming pool and views from every room of the ocean, marina, pool or Castle Hill, 8/48-55 Sir Leslie Thiess Drive was one of four homes listed at over the $2 million price range in Townsville and its greater region and sold on April 23.Although these properties are rare, the appetite for them is there. The $2.2 million home at 8 Boulder Court, Nelly Bay, entered the market before COVID-19 hit, but is still attracting plenty of attention from local and interstate buyers. 8 Boulder Crt, Nelly Bay, is on sale for $2.2 million.“We’re still seeing inquiries, especially online. The great majority of our buyers, especially in the upper end of the market, are from NSW and Victoria, so obviously they can’t travel at the moment,” said Alex Strens of Best of Magnetic Real Estate.“It was only last Saturday that townsfolk could start coming back over to the island on the ferries, so we’ve been very restricted for a few weeks.“Because a lot more people are looking at properties online at the moment, because a lot of them are at home, we are seeing a lot of inquiries from people who are just basically doing their research online.“Especially for the Magnetic Island market, what we do see is people doing their research from down south in April/May. It starts getting a bit colder down there and they start dreaming about moving up, then they’ll look to come and inspect during the winter months.More from news01:21Buyer demand explodes in Townsville’s 2019 flood-affected suburbs12 Sep 202001:21‘Giant surge’ in new home sales lifts Townsville property market10 Sep 2020“So hopefully if interstate travel opens up again soon-ish, then they should be able to come up and look around at properties and that’s when the great majority of our sales happen.” 1 Balmoral Place, Castle Hill, is on sale for $2 million.In a recent article on Realestate.com.au, the reasons why Townsville was witnessing an influx of excited buyers during what has been one of the nation’s toughest financial quarters was explored. After more than a decade of subdued activity, buyers are starting to recognise and understand the good opportunity Townsville provides.Primed for recovery, Townsville is currently in the midst of an opportune time for buyers to purchase their next home or investment property.Agent and auctioneer Dean Dank, from Explore Property Townsville, said he was optimistic about the current state of the market, and the future.“I think the cities are going to take a bit of a hit because people will want to move regionally after what’s happened with Covid,” he said. “What’s going to put a bit more pressure on buyers is that 30 per cent less listings have come onto the market according to REA, and with that comes less competition because their properties are selling, so there’s less to choose from.“(This should mean) buyers will act a little bit more quickly, so we’ll get closer to that list price; it’s just a statistical kind of thing.” Push to lift bans on open homes and auctions 8/48-55 Sir Leslie Thiess Drive, Townsville City, sold for about $2 million.IN what has been dubbed one of Townsville’s biggest real estate sales in the past decade, 8/48-55 Sir Leslie Thiess Drive has sold for about $2 million.Real Estate Institute of Queensland chief executive Antonia Mercorella said: “Achieving a $2 million sale is not often heard of in Townsville. There is active demand for high-end properties over the $1 million plus price point, but to see $2 million achieved is remarkable,” she said.

How Do You Shed Guilt from Your Past?.

first_imgLifestyleRelationships How Do You Shed Guilt from Your Past?. by: – May 9, 2011 Share Tweet Sharing is caring! Sharecenter_img 31 Views   no discussions Share It’s only human to make mistakes, and we all have done things of which we’re not proud.Although time can blur the memory and alleviate the pain of stressful incidents from our past, often it’s not a simple task to overcome the guilt that stems from actions in our past. This could be something as relatively innocuous as telling a small lie or as profound and life-changing as cheating on someone in a romantic relationship.It isn’t easy to live with this kind of burden, especially since guilt fuels the fire that keeps the conscience alive.  Guilt’s primary purpose is to make us acknowledge the wrongness of our actions so we don’t repeat those same mistakes. But it’s important to realize that once guilt brings you to that point, there remains no reason for you to cling to it or be burdened by it.  That said, overcoming guilt is often more easily said than done.Frequently our memories of past actions can become so incredibly ingrained in our subconscious that it seems almost impossible to release the guilt associated with it.  As a result, our increased level of shame makes it even more challenging to get over the guilt.  However, therapy that re-programs the subconscious through clinical hypnosis can help you release shameful memories.How Clinical Hypnosis WorksThe language of visuals are readily understood by the subconscious mind; therefore, visualization exercises that send messages to the subconscious and breathing exercises that calm the conscious mind can aide in clinical hypnosis therapy.Knowing we have harmed or hurt someone can cause grave guilt, and to get over that shame might require the help of a trained therapist.  However, when the guilt and shame are not so profound, engaging in self-hypnosis exercises can help you release these painful memories and the associated shame and guilt.Try this simple self-hypnosis exercise:1. Sit or lie in a comfortable position.2. Close your eyes.3. Breathe deeply, paying close attention to every inhale and exhale.4. Feel every in breath travel to the pit of your stomach as you feel your body relax with every out breath.5. Imagine you are breathing in white light and positive energy with every inhale and breathing out all your stress and anxiety with every exhale.6. Visualize a beam of white light entering your body through the top of your head, and allow the light to travel to every part of your body.7. Focus on each part of your body as the light travels to it, allowing the light to relax every muscle, cell and fiber of your body.8. Let the light leave your body through the soles of your feet.9. Now envision yourself standing on a beach.10. Feel the refreshing sea breeze brush you face and the wet sand relax the soles of your feet. 11. Take your time to admire the vastness of the sea while you gaze as far as your vision extends. Look toward the horizon and admire the gorgeous illusion of the earth meeting the sky.12. Now look at your feet, where you will find a wooden stick lying nearby.13. Pick up the stick and write in the sand the names of those whom you have hurt/abused or from whom you seek forgiveness.14. Now imagine that a wave clears away all the names you have written.15. Send up a silent prayer requesting forgiveness from the universe and everyone you have hurt, letting the sea of life wash away the guilty memories of your past.16. Take your time to say what you want to everyone from whom you wish to ask forgiveness.17.Relax, then slowly, open your eyes.Frequently repeating this exercise can assist you in resolving your past shame.  That said, this does not mean you will be able to release the karmic baggage associated with your actions or even condone them.  However, it will help you leave behind the past so you can offer yourself another chance to become a better person.By:GalTimer and Life Coach Karen Kleinwortlast_img read more

How West Indies batsman and Headingley record-breaker Shai Hope was schooled in East Sussex

first_imgONE Englishman was left beaming with pride when Shai Hope’s devotion to crease occupation secured a historic Test match victory and a place in the first-class record books.For Hope’s historic Headingley hundreds reminded Alan Wells, who had the most fleeting of associations with Test cricket himself in the mid-90s, of an early episode in their relationship at Bede’s, an independent school nestled in the countryside of East Sussex.One that confirmed his pupil was at odds with both his 16 years and the Twenty20 generation into which he was born, as a devoted disciple of the art of ‘batsmanship’ rather than a Bajan braggadocio. Beneath the Cantona collars lurked a serious talent.“His approach to practice was exemplary. I remember stopping him before he went into a net once and asking him what his objective was for that session. He told me it was the same as every other time he walked in. I said: “What’s that?” His answer: “I never want to get out”.’Alan Wells, the school’s director of cricket, Shai Hope celebrates after reaching his sensed he was a natural leader.The high price the 23-year-old placed on his wicket at Leeds was integral to West Indies’ win and, strikingly, the first occurrence of a player celebrating three figures twice in a match since first-class cricket was first played there in 1890. It was Hope’s coming of age as an international player, a journey accelerated by his time as a sixth form boarder at Bede’s.Since 2010, Wells, the school’s director of cricket, has regularly headed out to Bridgetown to hand-pick a scholar for a programme jointly funded with the Barbados Cricket Association. Hope was his first draft.“What stood out about Shai? His passion for the game – it’s in his blood with his brother Kyle and father Ian – his determination to improve, and after watching him practise I knew he would be willing to work really hard, to sacrifice a lot to fulfil his potential.”Bede’s has a rich cricket pedigree. Their Under-15 team were crowned national champions this summer. Wells’ eldest son Luke – the Sussex left-hander, who has struck 15 first-class hundreds – and Middlesex’s England Lions spinner Ollie Rayner are former first XI captains.Despite being an outsider, Wells identified Hope to follow in their footsteps, and appointed him captain for both his years at the school.“He was a very mature cricketer and a very natural leader because of his obvious determination to succeed through hard work. He was therefore a great role model for everyone that came into contact with him,” Wells said.“We will never forget him for the wonderful young man he was but also the lasting legacy he has left. In Sussex schools cricket people still talk about Shai and some of the innings he played against Eastbourne College and Ardingly College. The people that witnessed them have not forgotten.”Particularly one against Ardingly in which he struck 178 not out and took Abi Sakande, an England Under-19 at the time and now on the Sussex staff, apart.“Shai didn’t think he was bowling fast enough at him, so he stood about two metres down the pitch so it would come on a bit quicker, and he just kept smacking him into the trees for six – it was just extraordinary,” Wells recalls.The fact that the pair remain in close contact is “100% a reflection on him as a character” according to Wells: “He still sends me birthday wishes and Christmas greetings, stuff like that. I am so proud of him and his achievements.”Yesterday morning’s text message reflected fatigue. Wells’ response was to remind his former pupil of the offer made at the start of West Indies’ tour – a ticket with his name on it for the series finale at Lord’s.last_img read more

Nadal says Djokovic unlucky, but should show self-control

first_imgBy Reuters Staff(REUTERS) – Rafael Nadal has offered some sympathy for world number one Novak Djokovic after his great rival’s shock default from the U.S. Open for hitting a lineswoman in the throat with a stray ball.With Nadal absent Serbian Djokovic was a huge favourite to win the title in New York but his run came to a sudden end in the fourth round against Pablo Carreno Busta when he accidentally hit the official with a ball after losing a point.Had Djokovic won the title he would have moved to 18 Grand Slam titles, one behind Nadal and two behind Roger Federer in the battle for all-time greatness.“The consequences have been always the same. Nothing new on that. Novak was unlucky. The rules say clearly that’s a default,” Nadal said in a news conference at the Rome Masters where he will resume his season this week after a seven-month hiatus caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.“Sorry for him. He had an opportunity there. But in some way you should not be doing this. It’s very unfortunate, very unlucky situation. But it’s important to have the right self-control on the court, because if not, you can be unlucky.”Nadal was one of several players to opt out of playing at the U.S. Open because of his concerns about travelling during the pandemic.Austrian Dominic Thiem, the man Nadal beat to win the last two French Opens, claimed his first Grand Slam title at Flushing Meadows, coming back from two sets down to beat Alexander Zverev in a gripping final on Arthur Ashe Stadium on Sunday.Thiem’s victory ended a run of 13 Grand Slam titles won by Nadal, Djokovic or Federer and made him the first new major winner since Marin Cilic in 2014.“Happy for Dominic! He is somebody who deserves to win a big title, super hard worker. Very focussed on his goals. Good person, good human person. He deserves it,” said Nadal, who will be aiming to win a record-extending 13th French Open when the re-scheduled claycourt event starts at the end of September.Nadal will open in Rome against Carreno Busta.last_img read more
