On October 9, 2018, Dr. Eli Remolona, BIS’s Chief Representative for Asia and the Pacific, gave students an opportunity to deepen their understanding on issues of corporate bond market development in Asia. In the larger emerging economies of Asia, the onshore corporate bond markets have lagged far behind the government bond markets. These corporate markets have tended to be unwelcoming to new issuers with relatively low levels of credit quality. Dr. Remolona shared his findings based on the analysis of 5,500 financing decisions by firms in seven Asian emerging markets over a period of 11 years. In the countries with less developed onshore markets, it is the unseasoned issuers that tended to suffer from original sin and therefore it was often easier for them to issue offshore than to issue onshore.
Over 20 students joined the seminar to learn about current issues on financial market development in Asia. Since BIS acting as a bank for central banks, a group of GraSPP students from central banks joined Dr. Eli Remolona for a photo following the seminar.

CSR is extremely important within Adecco. Our role is much broader than just filling a vacant position; through employment we aim at a "Better work, better life", hence "Warm Heart & Responsibility" are our core company values. This is where our partnership with Beyond the Moon fits in. The right to a holiday is essential to the development of children and young adults, and we are happy to contribute.The ‘green screen’ was always supposed to be prerecorded - its the same how they did it in Estonia. That was the point of the effect, to show him in the middle of a storm. He still sang it live. It was actually KAN who offered the Estonian team to pay for the effect, because they really wanted Estonia to do it. If it was not for KAN-s input they wouldve probably changed the staging hence of it being too expensive on such bigger scale. Don’t blame the Estonian team, blame KAN if you need to diss anyone.The past year has been an important year of transition in our college and on our campus and the future looks bright indeed! A new dean and a new associate dean have been hired, along with a new chancellor on the campus level. These new leaders have the vision, experience, and enthusiasm to build on an already great foundation. I am truly excited about the coming years and the new heights to which we will climb!
Before we end the Join the Journey Campaign in June 2020, I want to thank you for helping us reach our goal ahead of time. Through your generosity, we have exceeded our $200 million campaign goal and now sit at more than $220 million for the campaign. You, our alumni and friends, have donated time and treasure to assure the continued success of our engineering program by establishing scholarships, supporting faculty, and creating new and exciting spaces in which our students can learn to be great engineers.
As a new engineering complex rises along the banks of the Tennessee River, it very much symbolizes the continuing excellence of our engineering program. There, our highly-ranked Department of Nuclear Engineering will find a new home, along with freshman programs. The building will also be a hub of activity, symbolizing our relationship to industry and how our engineers make our community and our world a better place. The building will indeed be a new “gateway” to engineering on our campus when it opens in 2021.
So, thank you again, for all that you do! We appreciate continued support and for joining us on this good and noble journey!The CBC Charity Craft Sale features over 70 local artists selling hand crafted goods.

I guess with pansexual you are attracted to all genders, with bisexual there are identities you might not find attractive. But again, lately the definitions are very close and overlap a lot, so it's a matter of how the person identifying as these terms defines it.

I'm bisexual, I'm attracted to almost all gender identities. My bisexuality is inclusive of trans people as well, for some it may be restricted to cis folks and etc etc.Trinidad, which sent the Americans crashing out of the last World Cup, has been vanquished. Now Panama poses the first real challenge for a new-look team.
The accusations, in a legal filing by the owners of a luxury hotel, escalate a dispute with the president’s company and are fraught with potential diplomatic and legal complexities.
A severe drought this year led to restrictions for the Panama Canal. The rains are now returning, but weather patterns are likely to make limits more commonplace in years to come.
President Trump, at a rally on Wednesday night, wrongly described the revenue generated from tariffs on China and exaggerated the effect of a trade deal with South Korea.
At a relatively subdued “Make America Great Again” rally on Wednesday night, the president riffed on familiar themes, like the “fake news media” and Hillary Clinton.
How Much Do You Know About Panama?
Can you find Panama on a map? What else do you know about this Central American nation with 3.8 million people.
Pedroza, one of the most successful featherweight boxers ever, successfully defended his title 19 times before losing to Barry McGuigan.
So, first, there are several types of radiation you might get from a nuclear reaction. Alpha, beta and gamma radiation are helium nuclei, electrons, and high energy photons respectively.  It is easier for heavier (larger, slower) radiation to interact with any solid or liquid matter you put in their path, so Alpha and Beta radiation are typically less penetrating. Anecdotally, I think your cardboard would stop at least alpha radiation, if not beta. Gamma ray photons are harder to stop because they have a smaller cross section for interaction, but with enough mass in the way you can do it. So, to stop gamma radiation you want high density materials to put in the way(more atoms per cross sectional area), so there is a greater chance of interacting with the atoms in the shield material. Thus lead is a great material for this. Water is not especially dense compared to lead, but is much more dense than air, and can fill whatever volume you have, so it might be easier to shield with a lot of water, than a lot of lead. That said, I don't believe the water in a nuclear reactor is particularly good at shielding; it is there to transfer heat away from the reactor and to be converted to steam to drive a turbine. 

Stopping visible light is all about whether there are atomic/molecular energy transitions which will absorb or scatter that particular wavelength of light. So you get a variety of materials that respond to light differently; water or glass being fairly transparent, and cardboard opaque. Gamma radiation is also light, but is high energy, and therefore small wavelength, so it interacts with solid matter less readily than visible light does (whose wavelength is much closer to the size of a
