{"text": "Britannia Entertainment & Activities\nTheater\nHeadliners Theatre is a 936-seat venue at the front of the ship on decks 6 and 7, which hosts musical performances and theatre productions in the evenings. It's a hi-tech space and features a giant LED screen, which provides digital scenery and acts as a backdrop to musical performances.There are three shows per night -- at 7 p.m., 8:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. -- and all last about 50 minutes.\nOn Britannia, there are four main shows which all use the LED screen to great effect. Brand new is “Astonishing”, a magic and illusion show devised by Britain’s Got Talent magician Stephen Mulhern -- it will leave you thinking \"how did they do that?\" from start to finish. Other shows include: \"Sounds of the Underground\", which is a trip through mid-90s London complete with a \"Cool Britannia\" soundtrack; \"Once Upon a Time\", a more family-orientated show billed as a 'wedding day fantasy adventure'; \"I've Got the Music in Me!\", which is a revue show featuring a variety of tracks from the most popular West End and Broadway musicals; and \"Gravity\", a more daring show billed as a 'futuristic rock musical'. It's a first for P&O in that it's quite risque and the music is modern (i.e. within the past 20 years). The shows really show off the theatre's gadgetry, with stunning lighting and sound effects and dancers 'flying' through the air and over the audience.\nAs well as the shows, Headliners hosts musical performances from impersonators as well as the real thing: R&B great Jimmy James packed out the theatre on several nights of our cruise. During the day it becomes a cinema.\nDaily Fun\nYou won't be bored on Britannia: there's a plethora of games and activities all day, from quizzes and trivia to cooking demos and even line dancing.\nLocated on Deck 15, The Cookery Club is flooded with light and fitted with the most up-to-date kitchen cookware, TV screens, speakers and a dining table for eating your creations. It fits 25 people (including one disabled-accessible workspace) and more when family classes are fun. All the preparation is done for you, as is the washing up. The current resident chef is Terrence Alexander – who will guide you through the three-hour sessions (£45). Or if the celebrity chefs are on board you can have a class with them. The classes with Marco Pierre White cost from £100 per person; Eric Lanlard’s are £75.\nBecause the Cookery Club does not have space for an audience, cooking demos take place in The Studio on Deck 7. They are hosted either by one of the two chefs from The Cookery Club, or a celebrity chef if he or she is onboard. The Studio also hosts afternoon films, live radio broadcasts and talks from onboard speakers.\nA rolling set of quizzes, trivia and bingo takes place throughout the day in Brodie's pub (Deck 6). The Crystal Room, llocated on Deck 7, just behind the Headliners Theatre, hosts talks from guest lecturers during the day.\nThere are two venues for dancing in the day: the Live Lounge and the Crystal Room. The entertainment team hosts line dancing and the like in the Live Lounge; the Crystal Room is where the more serious students of dance go to learn new ballroom moves from the ship's two instructors.\nBridge and whist take place high up at the top of the ship in the Marlow Suite, the ship's card room. Enrichment activities such as language classes take place in the Ivory Suite next door (Deck 16). Both rooms are exquisitely decorated in white and gold, and it's easy to imagine a wedding blessing taking place in these suites (which they are designed for, as well as card games).\nYou’ll find live music throughout the day across the ship. The resident conortations duo Sarah and Ben play regularly in the Starburst atrium. There’s a DJ on the Lido Deck pool throughout the afternoon which is where sailaway parties also take place. And the Live Lounge is also a popular music venue at night, where sounds alternate between the DJ and resident Party Band PULSE.\nOutdoor activities include everything from deck quoits (Deck 17) to basketball and table tennis tournaments in the Arena (Deck 18).\nAt Night\nThe Limelight Club (Deck 5): is a combined entertainment and dining venue in the tradition of a supper club (see Dining), just off the main atrium. Its big draw is the chance to see entertainers and guest performers from stage and screen up close and personal. Acts vary from theatrical performances to live music, such as jazz, pop, blues and soul. The format is thus: starters and main, followed by a short 'taster' show (an introduction by the star, plus one or two songs), then dessert and the main act, which lasts about 45 minutes.\nBooking is essential. Cheryl Baker and Chesney Hawkes were the sell-out star attractions when we were on board. However, once the live entertainment finishes, the venue turns into a late-night club and people can drop by for drinks and dancing – and to catch a glimpse of the acts before they depart. They’re usually happy to sign autographs or have a chat. The club is open from 7:30 p.m to midnight.\nThe Crystal Room (Deck 7): Dance enthusiasts should not miss the Crystal Room, a show lounge dedicated to the love of Latin and ballroom dancing. It's got a wooden floor, chandeliers, silver and black decor and a special exhibition of dancing memorabilia donated by famous dancers, including those in \"Strictly Come Dancing\", with which P&O has a long-term link-up. Located just behind the Headliners Theatre, the Crystal Room is a delightful spot that turns into a dance hall in the evening with live bands performing. Each song is introduced by dance type -- foxtrot, tango, rumba etc. -- rather than the song title, and couples of all ages will leap to the dance floor to show off their moves, which is an absolute delight to watch. It will be the main venue for all Strictly-related activities when the stars are onboard. It's open 7 p.m. to late.\nThe Live Lounge (Deck 7):For a different kind of dancing, make your way to the Live Lounge, the ship's late-night disco, situated right at the back of the ship on Deck 7. Though billed as a night club, it has the look of a performance venue, with a tiered semi-circle of seats round a small dance floor backing onto a stage. During the day, it often hosts kids' themed parties. In the evening, it showcases singers, bands, comedians and tribute acts of varying quality. Once the live entertainment ends, the venue turns into a nightclub with a DJ. It's open 7 p.m. to late.\nThe small casino adjoins Brodie's pub on Deck 6 starboard. It features a number of slot machines, as well as gaming tables for roulette and blackjack. Tournaments take place throughout the day, including afternoon roulette and live horse racing (via a satellite feed, of course). The slots are open from 10 a.m. to late; the gaming tables are open from noon to 5 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. to late.\nQuiz addicts who can't get their fill during the day should head to the Horizon Restaurant where there is a team cruise quiz most nights. You'll find karaoke in Brodie's on certain nights.\nBritannia Bars and Lounges\nMost of the bars and entertainment venues can be found in or just off the atrium, with a couple of exceptions. They are all very much designed to appeal to British tastes and current fads -- whether that be sampling wines from around the world, discovering obscure regional beers from around the UK or enjoying an artisan gin looking out from the top of the ship.\nThe Blue Bar (Deck 5): This is an odd little space tucked to one side of the atrium and a bit hard to find. It's an elegant cocktail bar in silver, black marble and midnight blue that should, in theory, be an ideal pre-dinner meeting place, but it isn't. (That honour is taken by Olly Smith's The Glass House.) During our five-day cruise, I didn't see a single person in there. Open 10 a.m. to late.\nBrodie's (Deck 6): Set in a large space just off the atrium, Brodie's is popular throughout the day, with a variety of entertainment including quizzes and live football screenings, as well as live music and karaoke in the evening. Designed in smart tones of brass, wood and a black-and-white geometric floor pattern, it's designed to resemble a large pub and is named after one of the founders of P&O Cruises, Brodie McGhie Wilcox.\nBrodie's also has The Great British Beer Menu, which features an astonishing 70 different bottled beers, ales and ciders from 56 UK counties including pilsners, ales, stouts, gluten-free beer and speciality beers such as Chocolate Tom from Robinson's Brewery in Cheshire, Ginger Hare from Bath Ales in Somerset and Orange Peel from the Wadsworth Brewery in Wiltshire, starting at a cheaper-than-pub price of £3.85 per bottle. The casino adjoins Brodie's. Open from 10 a.m. to late.\nThe Glass House (Deck 7): Wine expert Olly Smith's wine bar is a very popular gathering place all day, given its central location at the top of the atrium. Smith has chosen a range of 40 wines to offer by the glass, half of which are new to P&O. They are partly influenced by the ship's itineraries, so he has drawn from Croatia and Italy; but you can find wines from farther afield, including vintages from Uruguay and Japan. The 'Wine Flights' are fun, allowing you to sample three regional varieties, complete with Olly's tasting notes, from £9.95 for three 125 ml glasses. You can accompany the wine with a fine selection of tapas-sized dishes, as well as more filling mains (see Dining). Open 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.\nThe Crow's Nest (Deck 16): Located high atop the ship, this bar takes up a prime piece of real estate right at the front and affords spectacular views. It's a P&O Cruises' favourite, appearing on most ships in the fleet, and on Britannia it's the biggest yet. The venue is done up with a generous use of marble and floor-to-ceiling windows. During the day it's quiet and peaceful, and indeed we saw a number of people fast asleep on the very comfortable chairs and sofas dotted about. At night, it turns into a sophisticated pre- or post-dinner venue. You don't chance upon the Crow's Nest -- you head here -- and it's ideally situated if you're dining in the nearby Epicurean. It also adjoins the library and the nearby Marlow Suite, which is the ship's card room.\nThe Crow's Nest features The Great British Gin Menu, which includes 20 British-distilled gins from around the country including small, artisan brands such as, including Fevertree, Fentiman's and Bottlegreen, complement the gins.\nRiviera (Deck 16): The partly covered Riviera bar is the main bar for the Lido Deck. Open 8 a.m. to late.\nLido (Deck 16): This outside bar is opposite the Riviera, on the other side of the two main pools. Open 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.\nSunset (Deck 16): This popular spot, right outside the Horizon Restaurant, takes up the whole of the aft of the ship. It's perfect for sundowners and smokers, who can smoke on the port side.\nSerenity (Deck 17): This bar is solely for the use of passengers who have booked The Retreat. Open 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.\nBritannia Outside Recreation\nPools\nThere are two main pools on the Lido Deck (Deck 16). Sailaway parties take place here, with a live DJ and dancing. It's a large space and, despite the number of passengers onboard, it never felt crowded. There is a shallow paddling pool between the two main pools, for toddlers. (Swim nappies are OK here.) There is also a plunge pool at the aft of Deck 17.\nThere is another outdoor pool on Deck 17 in The Retreat. The Retreat is an adults-only enclave at the top and front of the ship, and is technically part of the Oasis Spa on Deck 5. It has a capacity of just 84 people and numbers are strictly controlled; you gain access by purchasing a one-day or full-cruise pass. It's open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.\nThe area is serene and calm, with day beds and cabanas for spa treatments. You also get a designated lounger, bathrobe, slippers, towels, free fruit and smoothies, and unlimited access to the two hot tubs.\nPasses for The Retreat cannot be pre-booked, but are available to purchase onboard at the Oasis Spa, subject to availability. They tend to book up quickly on the first day of the cruise, though one-day passes are sometimes available on the day. Passes to The Retreat can also be obtained when booking a spa package. A day pass costs £25 per person. Prices for full-cruise passes for one person or a couple are: £120 per person (£200 per couple) for seven nights; £180 (£300 per couple) for 10 to 12 nights; or £240 (£400 per couple) for 14 nights.\nYou can also eat up here by ordering food via the 'Resort Stewards'. Breakfast (9 a.m. to noon) includes smoothies, cereals and paninis for free, but drinks will set you back £2 for a small orange juice, which is a bit steep. Lunch (noon to 3:30 p.m.) includes salads and light dishes such as smoked salmon and paninis. Afternoon tea includes sandwiches, pastries and scones from a buffet (served from 3:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.)\nRecreation\nOutdoor fun is centred around the purpose-built Arena at the aft of Deck 18, the Sports Deck. The Arena is designed as a basketball court, but offers a range of equipment for playing various sports including short tennis, cricket and football. Friendly tournaments for adults and children take place during the day, and some evenings the Arena doubles as a sailaway venue when the weather is particularly inclement. (It's open, but far more sheltered than the Lido Deck.)\nThe Arena is surrounded by tiered viewing decks and even has an adjoining bar. Screens on either side of the bar are set up for passengers to play the latest motion-sensing video games. There is also a ping pong table and two golf nets near the Arena.\nSun Decks\nThe Sun Deck is up on Deck 17, overlooking the Lido Deck. It has two hot tubs, one on either side looking down on the main pools and plenty of sun loungers. You could also head up to Deck 18, which is quieter and doubles as the tiny Promenade, but you'll have to share it with joggers.\nBritannia Services\nReception is off the main atrium on Deck 5. Taking the front desk out of the atrium itself is an inspired move because it means the atrium is left to savour and enjoy, with the lines of people enquiring about their bills relegated to a corridor.\nThe shore excursions desk is diagonally opposite and beside it is a shop selling essential goods and logo items. All the rest of the shops are found on Deck 6. These include shops selling watches, duty-free items and jewelry. Brand names sold onboard include: Omega and Chopard, Beaverbrooks, Rituals, Desigual and Crew Clothing.\nThe photo gallery is on Deck 7. There are a few passenger photos on the walls for you to peruse, but mostly you look for your own photos and choose what you want via touch screens. Future Cruise Sales is next door if you'd like to book your next cruise while onboard.\nThe library is all the way up on Deck 16, right at the front of the ship, just behind the Crow's Nest. It's well stocked and a good size. All the books are in English, and you can take out two books per person and keep them for one week. There are also four computers for passenger use. The ship has Wi-Fi throughout,. There's also a new \"Pay As You Go\" option which costs 65p per minute.\nThe library is open 8 a.m. to noon, 4 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. on port days. On sea days, it is open 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. and then 7:30 to 9 p.m.\nThe games rooms -- the Marlow Suite (named after P&O's long-serving former boss, Carol) and the Ivory Suite -- are in the opposite corridor. There are bridge tables for bridge and whist in the Marlow Suite.\nThere are two free self-service launderettes toward the aft of every floor. You can buy washing powder from the ship shop opposite reception on Deck 5."}

{"text": "Robert Poe on September 6, 2007\nNot again — yet another click-to-call button. You hate talking over wifi at a coffee shop, having to shout to make yourself heard so everyone in the room knows your business. But you really want to buy that mountain bike on Craigslist before someone else grabs it. Ah, well ... you plug in your headset, put it on and click.\n- Social Networking on the Go\n- Next-Generation Mobility Now\n- 5 Ways Voice 2.0 Will Change Your Life\n- Managing Mobile Wireless Devices\nStrangely, your headset remains silent. Your click takes you to a page on a site called jaxtr. A simple widget there has a \"call-me-free\" button. You click, but then it asks for — your phone number? You don't necessarily like that, but a checkbox lets you hide your number from the person you're calling. You type in your mobile number and click. Your cell phone rings, you answer it, and a voice says \"Please hold. Jaxtr is completing your call.\" Hmm, that was different.\nMenlo Park, Calif. startup jaxtr lets people call this way just by clicking. Callers need never know your real number, nor give you theirs. But they get a virtual number where they can always reach you. After the first call, they make the calls to the number the service assigns you, using the phone with the number they first entered on your widget. No further Web clicks are necessary, freeing them from the great limitation of traditional click-to-call services.\nIf you're the recipient of the call, it's just as safe and easy. You can block incoming calls or send them to voice mail, which you can listen to online. You can send accepted calls to any of three phone numbers you register. (You can also, incidentally, greet visitors to your widget page with a ringing sound and/or \"voice blast\" recorded message instead of that reassuring silence, should you wish.) The calls are free from 51 countries. Currently there is a limit of 100 minutes, or \"jax,\" per month of incoming calls sent to phones. After that, all calls go to voice mail.\nThe most obvious uses for jaxtr are on social-networking and e-commerce sites. Both need just such a combination of reachability and blockability. Unlike some other services that focus on one or the other of those markets, jaxtr is targeting both, according to CEO Konstantin Guericke. The service has made it easy to add widgets, buttons and the like to accounts on sites ranging from Facebook and MySpace to Craigslist and eBay.\nGuericke said that jaxtr has gained 1 million users since its March launch, entirely without advertising. That represents a doubling from 500,000 on July 23, which itself was twice the number of a mere 27 days earlier. One reason for the rapid growth is jaxtr's ease of use, Guericke claimed. Buyers (or suitors) can make those first calls without becoming members, while joining up is just a click away from any member's widget. You need merely enter your name, screen name, password and email address to get a URL where your own click-to-call widget appears. Jaxtr calls the number you’ve entered to confirm its validity. Paste the URL into your signature or Web page, or email it to anyone, and you're in business.\nIn addition to the ease of signing up, there's also significant motivation for it. Currently, the only way to earn additional minutes of incoming calls is by recruiting new members, at a rate of 20 jax per new user. Members can also talk to other members for free, even after they’ve exceeded their 100-minute quotas. That's incentive to both recruit and join.\nJaxtr has just received $10 million in Series A funding, and it plans to earn revenue from premium services. The most self-evident of these would be selling additional time for incoming calls beyond the 100-minute limit. Guericke says users are in fact already asking about buying more \"jax.\"\nThe company may be better off delaying that idea as long as possible. If it does, members will try all the harder to recruit new members to earn more minutes and have more people they can talk to for free. One million users could soon become 10 million or more.\nIf jaxtr waits too long, though, few people will want to buy jax at all. When the user base gets big enough, they'll be able to talk to almost everyone they want for as long as they want. By that time, of course, half or more of the particular consumer demographics jaxtr is targeting could be members. It's a problem no Voice 2.0 company would mind having.\nSocial Networking on the Go\nNext-Generation Mobility Now\n5 Ways Voice 2.0 Will Change Your Life\nManaging Mobile Wireless Devices\nIs there a service like this that is actually free: does not require spamming friends for minutes. I HATE spam and detest the idea of a site inspiring friend-to-friend spamming :( PS you're captcha isn't complicated enough :{\nPosted by: Seth, 13:55:54 on 2008-10-06"}

{"text": "With the popularity of Cats the musical, it is surprising how many people have never seen it. Almost everyone has seen a least part of Phantom of the Opera or Les Miserable’s at some point, but the musical Cats still seems to be sort of a niche thing. I think that is a shame. Cats the musical has something for everyone. For kids, it is obvious: the costumes, the dancing, and the silly songs are a kids dream. Even for adults, however, there are some great features of the story. Usually, the directing is very good and the actors are excellent. They consistently find people who can handle both the vocals and the acting amazingly well. The composition is much better than with most musicals – I have seen it five times, and it hasn’t gotten boring.\nNot all productions of cats in musical are the same, however. The best place to see it in my opinion is on Broadway. Broadway musicals are always top-notch. There is such a theatergoing community there that, between the tourists and locals, they can sustain a top-notch production month after month, year after year. The actors change, but the overall quality remains the same. It will absolutely knock your socks off!\nMy kids liked Cats the musical so much when we saw it that they wanted to dress up like the characters. It wasn’t anywhere near Halloween, but I thought I’d indulge them. You see, in my family we really value the arts. Anything that encourages my kid’s creativity is something I’m willing to support. As such, we went out and bought supplies for cat’s costumes. We bought masks, fake fur, and a variety of other supplies. Over the weekend, we cobble together our own Cats the musical costumes.\nMy kids even insisted on putting on their own individual production of the Cats musical. It was a lot of fun seeing them prance around, trying out the songs themselves. They remembered some of the lyrics, and made up some of their own. I was surprised how much they practiced it. When they were done, they really had a good performance. I know that my opinion as a parent is biased, but it was still one of the most impressive things that I have ever seen them do. I filmed the whole thing, and years from now plan on showing it to their boyfriends and girlfriends. That will be fun!\nWhen I was growing up, my mother always waited until the last minute to get us something to wear for Halloween. We usually ended up picking out some plastic costume from the local store and going with that. Though this was okay, it was not ideal. When my brother was in second grade, he had to dress up for school but my mother had no time to get him something. This was when I discovered how much fun home made Halloween costumes could be. Mom didn’t have the time to help him, as she had a newborn, so I took over with great results.\nThough having a boy dress up as a girl is probably a pretty common idea for home made Halloween costumes today, it was not quite as common when we were growing up. I took what I could find in my room to make him into a very convincing looking little girl. Because he was only eight years old at the time, the only thing that I had a problem with was his hair. He was sporting a shaved look and I did not have a wig for him to wear. I had plenty of everything else to go with his home made Halloween costumes however, and he looked funny enough to crack up our cranky bus driver, whom we had never seen smile before that moment.\nNo matter what type of home made Halloween costumes that you want, you can usually find things around your home to make them. You can fill in what you do not have through a variety of sources. Thrift stores are always great for things like prom dresses, wedding dresses, and even suits that won’t cost you a fortune. You can also find things in department stores or craft stores. The biggest variety of fun things you can get to go with your home made Halloween costumes are going to be things that you can only find online. Just remember to order early.\nWhen you try to go with home made Halloween costumes, keep one very important thing in mind. You have to get started early, especially if you think the costume that you are going for is going to be extremely complicated. You want to have time to mess up and start again, which is what is going to happen when you have a really great idea of which you have never seen anywhere else. You are starting from scratch with some of your home made Halloween costumes, and you don’t want to be left with nothing if you start too late and can not get it right.\nHave you ever met a kid who didn’t like Disney movies? Well, come Halloween, here’s their chance to dress up as their favorite Disney character. From toddlers to teens, most kids will jump at the chance to own a Disney Halloween costume! Unlike ‘ordinary’ Halloween costumes, kids will make a special spot in their closet and use it again and again for dress up play. Although they may want a different Disney Halloween costume for next year, these are all collectibles for the permanent costume collection.\nAlthough the genuine Disney Halloween costumes cost a little more, they’re really just a few bucks more than a ‘cheap’ costume, are well made and nicely detailed. The colors of the fabrics are as close to exact matches as you’ll find. Really cool accessories are available separately. For example, in addition to a Jasmine(TM) costume, you can also get golden slippers, a tiara and a wand to complete this lovely costume. You can also buy wigs to go with any costume you choose.\nDisney also offers a selection of Mother and daughter outfits, which are also good choices for teen girls taking younger children trick or treating.\nNo matter how small your child may be, there’s a Disney Halloween costume to fill the bill. They offer Dumbo(TM) and Tigger(TM) baby bunting costumes, among others. These costumes are not only adorable, but they also keep baby nice and cozy.\nYou can’t be cuter than in a Disney Halloween costume, leading to a heavy bag of treats!\nTaking your pooch trick or treating? Disney has costumes for pets! Your pet can accompany the kids all styled out as Goofy(TM) or Mickey(TM)!\nSnow White(TM), Cinderella(TM), Ariel the Little Mermaid(TM), Pocahontas and Tinkerbelle(TM) the fairy of Peter Pan fame are all popular with the girls. Boys go for Aladdin, Jafar, Peter Pan, Jack Sparrow and Captain Hook costumes. Again, check out the available accessories for all of these costumes.\nMost of the Disney Halloween costumes are available in deluxe and ‘prestige’ versions, which include a little more detailing. Many are available in children’s, teen and adult sizes, so everyone can get in on the fun.\nOne of the best features of the Disney Halloween costumes is that the character is clearly recognizable. There’s no mistaking who your child’s character is, so there’s no chance the person opening their door with a basket of goodies asking, “You’re so cute, but who are you?” In a Disney costume, that little old lady may be tempted to be a bit more generous, too. “Oh, here, take a few more! You’re just sweet!”"}

{"text": "Belgium has three US Ambassadors. Indeed, both NATO HQ and the EU Commission – say, Europes government – have their premises in Brussels, and maintaining diplomatic contacts with and the Belgian state and these entities has been considered from the beginning as too daunting a task to be entrusted to one ambassador. That is why there are:\na.) a US Ambassador to Belgium\nThis is Mr. Tom C. Korologos, who was sworn in as Ambassador to the Kingdom of Belgium on June 30, 2004 by the Chief Justice of the United States, Mr. Rehnquist. He is the 29th Ambassador of the United States to Belgium.\nMr. Korologos has ample experience as a senior staff member in the White House and as an assistant to two US Presidents, besides being an accomplished businessman. Iraq keeps coming back to us, since his most recent assignment was in that country, where he served under L. Paul Bremer as a senior counsellor to the CPA (Coalition Provisional Authority).\nb.) a US Ambassador to NATO.\nMr. Nicholas Burns is the United States Permanent Representative to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, a post he holds since August 8, 2001. As such, he heads the combined State-Defense Department U.S. Mission to NATO, which promotes U.S. interests on the full range of Alliance issues, including NATO’s peacekeeping operations in Afghanistan, Iraq, Bosnia and Kosovo, counter-terrorism, missile defense, relations with Russia and Partners, and NATO’s relations with the European Union.\nUnder President George H.W. Bush, he was Director for Soviet Affairs and specialized on economic issues. Under President Clinton, he also served for five years (1990-1995) on the National Security Staff at the White House. In 1997 he became Ambassador to Greece, a post he held until 2001.\nc.) a US Ambassador to the European Union.\nThe US’s Third Ambassador in Belgium is, imho, the most important one, and his function will only gain importance in the years ahead. We are talking about Mr. Rockwell Schnabel, a successful former businessman who supported Ronald Reagan to become governor of California and who subsequently served Reagan as President as well as his successor George H.W. Bush. In 2000 the current President asked Mr. Schnabel to become US Ambassador to the EU, on which he agreed.\nI intend to give you now the gist of an interview with Mr. Schnabel as it was published in a Belgian newspaper. The Ambassador being of Dutch descent, this interview took place in that language, but knowing how proficient you all are in the Talk of the Land of Wooden Shoes I preferred to present the summary in English. Here goes:\nCurrently, Mr. Schnabels Office is frantically preparing President Bush’s visit to Brussels on February 21-23. As Mr. Schnabel stated, the emphasis will be on Europe, on the European Union. \"Naturally\" the President will also go to NATO because that is the Transatlantic Organization America is part of. And he will also meet the Belgian authorities. But the focal point of the visit will be the European institutions: the Council, the Commission, the Presidency currently under Luxemburgs aegis.\nMr. Schnabel said that the EU gains importance with every passing day or hour. A lot of issues once considered improbable have over the past decades been realised: the internal market and a unified currency e.g., furthermore there is the upcoming Constitution for which President Bush, according to the Ambassador, has shown intense interest. He also asserts that, whereas earlier (American) generations doubted the European project, now they realize that the Europe of 25 nations is a fact, and that decisionmaking once considered the realm of national authorities is shifting towards Brussels.\nWhen Mr. Schnabel then asserts that the US thinks this is considered in the US a positive development, I guess he’s trying to soothe the interviewer and the readers. Asked to back up this claim, he arguments that if the US understands well how Europe functions and if it can work with the EU in a partnership, it will be easier to cooperate with one entitiy instead of with 25 countries. \"Together we account for 60% of the world economy. This means we can address global problems like poverty and trade issues together (e.g. in the Doha talks, MFBB), and we can let ourselves be heard toether in the WTO.\"\nThe ambassador then reflects on a number of what I would call – in the context of a powerful US/EU alliance – details. Contemporary details, such as the role of American and European industry in stabilizing political tensions. I certainly don’t follow Mr. Schabel when he says that what the EU has done to avoid armed conlflicts (is he talking about he Balkan?) is \"fabulous\". When confronted with the interviewers' assertion \"that George W. Bush is seen in Europe as the first American president who worked actively against European integration\", the Ambassador responded that this perception is based on several decisions on which the Europeans disagreed: Iraq, Kyoto, steeel tariffs etc…\nI found the most interesting quote from the interview the one with which it ended: upon asked whether an evermore stronger and unified Europe will not lead to a more competitive and antagonistic relationship, Mr. Schabel answered that if Europe is strong and powerful, that automatically bodes well for the US. \"There will be competition, but the US have never been afraid of that\". He then goes on saying that American companies are used to a merciless competition, and that they are not scared they couldn’t handle European companies. But they ask a level playing field. They want to be able to compete in Europe on the same basis as their European counterparts. Americans think that a strong competition is good, because it is an incentive to do better still. \"The more prosperous and competitive Europe becomes, the better it is for us\". The Ambassador then pointed out that the level playing field works in both directions, citing Airbus’s example which in a contract for the US Air Force is a contender for Boeing. Final words: \"And possibly even the President flies soon in a helicopter not built in the US. Bush does not distrust Europe, of good relations with his European allies he as made one of his four priorites for his second term.\"\nI wholeheartedly agree with Mr. Schnabel. As those of you who have followed this blog over the past year know, I am very much in favour of a strong Europe as one nation state modelled on the USA. In my view this implies a superstate with key responsibilities shifted away from the national to the supranational level. In other words, Europe becoming one political, economic, monetary entity with own defense capabilities.\nBut… I'd equally glad like to see it as an ally of the United States. It is easy to discern in today’s world the trends which will lead to tomorrow’s realities. Everywhere on the planet bloc-forming is on the rise. We see it in South America, where key countries are getting geared together in an economic union, the Mercosur, just as happened in Europe fifty years ago with the ECCS. We see it in the Pacific, where Japan has ambitions to lead a union opposing the emerging superpower China, which is a bloc of its own. Taking all these developments together, it simply isn’t logical to assume – and expect – that Europe should stall in its tracks now, somewhere halfway the grand unification project, like an Empire State Building stopped at 250 meters with elevator shafts leading to open air. As it is, I think that in the multipolarized world that is certainly coming, the United States of America and the United States of Europe will automatically gravitate towards each other, given their unique relationship. Indeed, no other two blocs on this planet are more alike and share a set of common values and a history and culture so entwined: neither a Latin-American blog vs., say, India, nor China vs. an Asian bloc under Japan’s leadership. In tomorrow’s world, so I hope, all the differences of the past can be forgotten and both partners will find themselves in a Grand Transatlantic Alliance."}

{"text": "The 50,000 members of the Cambodian Labor Confederation (CLC) are poised to strike\nunless the government sends the draft anti-corruption law to the National Assembly\nin 2007, a union leader said.\nAth Thorn, president of the CLC, said on December 27 that his union would not only\nstrike, but organize mass protests in the streets of Phnom Penh as a means of pressuring\nthe government to pass the long-awaited law this year. The government has been drafting\nthe law since 1994.\n\"Corruption among high-ranking government officials makes the poor suffer,\"\nhe said. \"We will gather many people together to push the government to first\npass and then implement the law to reduce corruption.\"\nThe absence of an anti-corruption law has allowed high-level corruption to proliferate,\nThorn said.\n\"Increased corruption among high-ranking government officials is the main reason\nthe government is unable to the raise salaries of lower-ranking civil servants,\"\nhe said.\nCLC membership is drawn from a broad cross-section of the working population - including\ncivil servants, garment workers and construction workers.\nThe union believes that high-level corruption directly causes low-level corruption,\nThorn said. This is because by under-paying civil servants the government makes low-level\nsurvival-corruption endemic.\n\"Corruption destroys the whole system of society because it puts pressure on\ncivil servants to exploit those weaker than them,\" Thorn said. \"As a result\nof this the population has come to hate civil servants, teachers, policemen, and\nsoldiers.\"\nAlthough the Council of Ministers has recently passed a decree that will give the\ncountry's estimated 167,000 civil servants a 15 percent salary increase from January\n1, 2007, union leaders still say this is insufficient.\nRong Chhun, President of the Cambodian Independent Teachers Association (CITA), wrote\nto Hun Sen on December 26, 2006, saying that the rise - equivalent to approximately\n12,300 riel extra per month - was not enough.\nThe government's ongoing failure to pass the anti-corruption law is a fundamental\nstumbling block on the road to raising salaries, eradicating low-level systemic corruption\nand thereby improving the overall quality of civil servants in Cambodia, Chhun told\nthe Post on January 8, 2007.\n\"The government, especially Hun Sen, lacks the will to adopt [the law on anti-corruption],\"\nhe said. \"They don't want it adopted, as to do so would affect the benefits\nsome [high ranking] officials currently receive.\"\nIf the government continues to allow the anti-corruption law to languish in the hands\nof officials rather than sending it to the National Assembly for debate, Cambodia\ncan expect to see social inequality worsen over 2007, Chhun said.\n\"If Hun Sen does not allow this law to be adopted it will most affect the teachers\nand other poor people,\" he said. \"Year after year the poor get poorer as\none small group in society gets richer and richer.\"\nAlthough Chhun had not heard of CLC's plans to strike, he said he fully supported\nthe idea.\n\"I would love to participate with whatever that can serve the benefit of the\nnation,\" he said. \"The law about anti-corruption is very important for\nthe country.\"\nCivil society leaders said that the anti-corruption law and the raising of civil\nservant salaries must be done simultaneously.\n\"First of all you must pass the law then second you can raise salaries,\"\nKek Galabru, president of Licadho, a local rights NGO. \"If you don't raise salaries\nbut you pass the law you end up in a catch 22 - you can't prosecute all the civil\nservants who have only $20 a month - the law would be useless.\"\nMembers of the donor community called for patience rather than public demonstrations.\n\"The government has been working on the anti-corruption law for quite a while,\"\nsaid Arjun Goswami, Resident Representative at the Asian Development Bank (ADB).\n\"They would obviously wish to pass this legislation, but the legislative process\ntakes time. In our view, patience and persistence [is better than pressuring them\ninto a] headlong rush which would not serve anyone's interest.\"\nSek Barisoth, director of the anti-corruption program of PACT-Cambodia told the Post\non December 27 that there had been no progress on the draft law on anti-corruption\nsince the inter-ministerial meeting at the Council of Ministers in August.\nThe draft anti-corruption law is now in the hands of individual ministries who are\nscrutinising it for any technical problems, he said.\n\"Technical problems have been debated for too long,\" said Barisoth. \"We\ndo not know for sure why it is taking so long, but we may suppose that it is intentional\n[on the part of the government] to delay like this.\"\nMonh Saphan, deputy chairman of the legislative commission of the National Assembly,\ndidn't know when the legislation would reach the Assembly for debate.\n\"The anti-corruption law is still in the hands of government officials,\"\nhe said. \"I cannot predict when it will come to the National Assembly.\"\nThe government is currently tackling corruption with a \"light fist,\" Om\nYentieng, the government's new anti-corruption committee chief and adviser to Prime\nMinister Hun Sen, told a press conference at the Council of Ministers on December\n6.\nBut Galabru warned the government might not treat protesters demanding the passage\nof the anti-corruption law with quite the same \"light fist\" they were using\nto fight corruption.\n\"Peaceful protest is a fundamental right, but I am worried,\" she said.\n\"[Police] should protect demonstrators, not attack them. But the situation in\nCambodia is different.\"\nAlthough the right to peaceful demonstration is enshrined in both the Cambodian constitution\nand a number of international treaties ratified by the government, Galabru warned\nthat CLC protestors should be careful.\n\"I am really worried about the reaction of the government,\" she said. \"It\nis the right of every Cambodian citizen to demonstrate peacefully, [but] I worry.\nWe will monitor any strike carefully.\""}

A GREAT MOVIE FOR A SPECIFIC AUDIENCE\nThere are many psychological drama- horror movies which try to be multi-layered and ambiguous. Most of them fail. \"A Banquet\" succeeds.\nA Bullcrap\nThis story is a slow burn that only burns at the very end of the movie. When you're already so tired of the crap it's been spouting the entire time you're watching it. It's like an orgasm which was put on hold indefinitely. I regret that I didn't just fast forward all of these nonsensical gibberish right to the end. Cause even at the ending, there's not a single explanation for all of those crap they're throwing at the audience. This is a really good example for a bad psychological thriller. Slow, boring, no explanation, and have a crappy ending. Don't watch this piece of crap! Don't waste 1 hour and a half of your life for this garbage just like I did!\nWidowed mother Holly (Sienna Guillory, Jill Valentine from the Resident Evil movies) finds herself facing a crisis of faith over, well, faith when her teen daughter Betsey (Jessica Alexander, Glasshouse) undergoes a divine moment and claims that her body only exists to serve a higher power.\nCould this be real? Or is the family still dealing with the suicide of Holly's husband and the father to her children? And since Betsey found her father's body, is she feeling the loss most of all as she cuts herself off from popularity and friends and even life?\nAnd then one night, Holly finds herself lured into the woods, enchanted and now can't stand to be around food, refusing to eat and never losing weight, making doctors question their medical training. In fact, she soon grows to actually fear even being in the same room as any nourishment, which is a problem, as Holly deals with the pain by making huge feasts that her sister Isabelle (Ruby Stokes) happily devours. And Holly's mother June, played by Lindsay Duncan, is incredible and brings another type of pain to the story.\nSo what is behind all this? Mental illness? Possession? Depression? All of it? None of it? I'm tempted to use the cliche that the filmmakers want to have their cake and eat it too, but the truth is that this movie never really settles on any one reason. That said, it's a stark meditation on loss and how that takes us to some incredbly bad places.\nDirector Ruth Paxton (making her first full length film) and writer Justin Bull (who wrote and directed Merge) ask what obsessions after loss are healthy - is getting really into figure skating as bad as having a glimpse at the apocalypse and losing your mind? - and which aren't. The home that this all takes place in feels like the dark homes of people you've dated for brief moments and had time intersect to bring you into their family life for holidays and trap you inside places they knew so well and you found alien, foreboding and escape worthy.\nIt's strange because this movie seems to be so sure of what it is in the first hour, then gradualy loses its faith within itself to take the film to where it needs to go. The hard part is that the start of the movie, the build and the dread is so great that the fact that it doesn't stick a landing hurts worse than a typical movie. So many modern movies seem to have this same malady - the end should be as important as the beginning, after all."}

{"text": "Harry Potter and the Nice Big Knot – Page Two\nDec 04, 2007\nPosted by DorisUncategorized\nHarry Potter and the Nice Big Knot\nBy Susan Faust\nPage One | Page Two | Page Three\nRead the archived discussion of this essay here.\nThe Dangling Threads\nYou won’t need a prequel; by the time I am finished, you will know enough.4\nSo—given that we can be confident that no sub-plot will be dropped and no conflict left unresolved—what are the loose threads in the series that we can expect to see tied together at the end of the seventh Harry Potter book? What tensions do we, the readers, feel that we demand to be resolved?\nThe first group of open threads we can identify are the ones that seem most directly-related to the central plot conflict—Harry’s struggle with Voldemort. These include:\n- The Horcrux hunt, including R.A.B. and the locket, Voldemort’s past, and the Hogwarts founders and their artifacts.\n- The prophecy, the events in Godric’s Hollow on Halloween 1981, and Lily’s and James’s backgrounds and professions.\n- Harry’s scar and mental connection to Voldemort, and their brother wands.\n- Dumbledore’s death, Snape’s questionable loyalty, Snape’s connection to Lily and James, and the Half-Blood Prince’s book.\n- Pettigrew’s life debt to Harry.\n- Harry’s blood protection, Petunia, Voldemort having Harry’s blood, and the gleam in Dumbledore’s eye.\n- The power of love and the locked room at the Department of Mysteries.\n- Tom Riddle’s diary, Ginny’s knowledge of him, and other events in Chamber of Secrets.\n- Sirius’s death, the broken mirror, and the veil at the Department of Mysteries.\nAnother group includes conflicts or unresolved relationships that do not seem as closely related to the central plot (though, considering Rowling’s writing techniques, you never know!), but definitely seem to need resolution:\n- Neville, his parents, his development as a wizard, and his grudge against Bellatrix Lestrange and her husband and brother-in-law.\n- Percy and the Ministry, and his conflict with the other Weasleys.\n- Ron and Hermione’s contentious courtship, including the promised return of Viktor Krum.\n- Harry’s broken-off relationship with Ginny.\n- Remus Lupin, Fenrir Greyback, and the werewolves, possibly including Tonks and Bill Weasley.\n- Hagrid, Grawp, and the giants.\n- Hermione, the house-elves, S.P.E.W., and the general bad relationship between wizards and the other intelligent races, as symbolized by the fountain at the Ministry of Magic. Also Harry’s ownership of Kreacher.\n- The school-days conflict between Snape and the Marauders, especially the “trick” Sirius played on Snape.\n- Draco Malfoy’s near-repentance, his eventual fate, and the fate of his parents.\n- Corruption and incompetence in the Ministry, including Fudge, Umbridge, Scrimgeour, and the Dementors.\nFinally, we have a group of open threads that do not exactly demand resolution, but seem to hold out a tantalizing promise of further developments:\n- Luna, her unorthodox beliefs, and her connection with death.\n- The Flying Ford Anglia and other denizens of the Forbidden Forest.\n- Missing persons such as Mr. Ollivander and Florean Fortescue.\n- Aberforth Dumbledore.\n- Albus Dumbledore’s past defeat of Grindelwald.\n- Fawkes.\n- Nagini.\n- Dudley, and what he saw when the Dementors attacked him.\n- The Weasley twins and their joke shop.\nI’m sure every reader will have his or her own mental list and our lists will be slightly different. Probably I have forgotten some important elements, and there are likely to be some crucial details that Rowling sneaked into the first six books and I haven’t even picked up on. But, generally speaking, these are the open strands Rowling has provided for herself, the material she has made available to weave her final tapestry from.\nAs readers, we will not be satisfied unless most of these sub-plots and loose threads are resolved in some way. But our future satisfaction does not depend only on having these open issues resolved—how they are resolved matters just as much.\nTying the Knot\nI’m aiming to tie it all up neatly in a nice big knot… that’s it, good night.5\nThe point of keeping many sub-plots alive in the first place is to resolve them— not individually, as separate sub-plots, but interrelatedly, as a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. As readers, we will get pleasure (or at least satisfaction) from every one of the above sub-plots that Rowling resolves in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. If, for instance, Harry finds and destroys all the Horcruxes or Percy reconciles with his family (or comes to some other final resolution of his situation), we will feel a kind of basic pleasure—the payoff of the tension/release cycle of those plots. But what we want and expect from J.K. Rowling in the last book is something better than that—something that she has given us to a greater or lesser degree at the end of every one of her books so far—a grand crashing climax where everything comes together, various sub-plots turn out to be unexpectedly related, and suddenly everything makes sense in an utterly surprising, yet somehow inevitable, way.\nHaving kept so many plot threads open to resolve in the seventh book, J.K. Rowling still has options for how she resolves them. Some ways are more artistically satisfying than other ways, as we have seen in her past books. From lesser to greater artistry, these four ways are:\n- Resolving them sequentially.\n- Resolving them simultaneously.\n- Resolving them interrelatedly.\n- Resolving them interrelatedly with perspective change or reversals.\nBecause Rowling has been so consistent in her technique of resolving most plot threads at the ends of her books, we can find examples in past books of all of these. For instance, in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the sub-plot involving Percy Weasley behaving suspiciously (skulking around the dungeons, for instance) is resolved in a sequential manner. After the main climactic sequence is over, Ginny reveals Percy’s secret to Harry, Ron, and Hermione on the train: Percy has a girlfriend, and all his apparently suspicious behavior was a red herring. This is an amusing and satisfying explanation to resolve this sub-plot, but that’s all it is.\nIn comparison, we can see other sub-plots of that same book resolved simultaneously. The sub-plots about Gilderoy Lockhart and Ron’s broken wand come to a climax at the same time as the more important sub-plots, as part of the main scene where Harry, Ron, and Lockhart try to enter the Chamber of Secrets. This kind of resolution gives more “bang” to the climactic scenes, and a feeling of connectedness to the separate sub-plots.\nEven better, however, is when the seemingly separate sub-plots turn out to be interrelated. We can see this in Chamber of Secrets when the sub-plot about Moaning Myrtle, the sub-plot about the diary Harry and Ron found, the sub-plot about Ginny’s unusual behavior, the monster in the Chamber of Secrets, the sub-plot about Ron’s fear of spiders, the mystery of why Hagrid was expelled, and the sub-plot about Lucius Malfoy’s conflict with Arthur Weasley all turn out to be intricately connected, part of one overall story that we finally understand as the main plot of the book. This is deeply satisfying for the reader, and it is a result that we have come to expect from reading the Harry Potter books.\nHowever, there is one more level of artistry that Rowling sometimes achieves that we find even more satisfying: when the interrelatedness of the sub-plots also gives us a startling perspective change or reversal. That kind of experience, the gasp-out-loud or dropped-jaw moment that most readers get from the revelation that Scabbers is Peter Pettigrew and Sirius Black is innocent after all, is a highlight of the reading experience for Harry Potter fans. In Chamber of Secrets, many readers experience that sudden perspective reversal and click-into-place effect when Tom Riddle draws letters in the air saying “I am Lord Voldemort.” To a lesser extent, the discovery that Moaning Myrtle is “the girl who died” is the same type of revelation.\nThat fourth type of resolution is what most of us want from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The question is—will we get it? There is every reason to think that we will.\n<< Previous Page | Next Page >>\nRead the archived discussion on this essay in Unfogging Deathly Hallows!"}

{"text": "Whitfield L. Knapple, MD, FACG\nChair, ACG National Affairs: ACG continues to advocate for the SCREEN Act (S. 1079; HR 2035) and “Removing Barriers to Colorectal Cancer Screening” Act (S.624; HR 1220). These bills benefit both ACG members as well as our patients: better reimbursement for demonstrating better screenings, along with better cost-sharing for patients.\nHowever, these bill are tough to pass. Important bills to ACG cost the Federal Government money. While the SCREEN Act is “budget neutral,” it is also specialty-specific. That’s why ACG is also advocating for the “Preventive Health Savings Act” (S.3126; HR 3660). We share the belief that the way in which the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) currently “scores” legislation (estimated costs to the Federal Government) severely constrains policymakers’ ability to assess legislation that both promotes preventive medicine and generates long-term savings to Medicare. Unfortunately, CBO rules do not allow it to make cost-savings estimates beyond 10 years. This is very important for two reasons. First, a better “CBO score” makes legislation important to ACG members and our patients easier to pass. Screening colonoscopy is demonstrated to not only reduce incidence rates and deaths from colorectal cancer, but also costs to the health care system. Secondly, more accurate CBO estimates give Congress less incentive to look towards legislation that ACG opposes, but CBO views as “cost savers,” to offset the costs of larger legislative packages rushed through Congress at the end of the year. For example, legislation that eliminates the in-office ancillary exception for services such as in-house anatomic pathology.\nOther legislation impacting the clinical GI: ACG is also very active advocating for other bills that support your patients and reduce your practice management burdens.\nWhitfield L. Knapple, MD, FACG\nChair, ACG National Affairs Committee"}

Therefore, great interest is devoted to find immobilization matrix, which can retain its specific biological function. In recent years, there has been a significant increase of interest in using natural polymers as an immobilization matrix for enzymes, living organisms, cell carriers. Different types of polysaccharides such as agar [2], alginate [3], carrageenan [4], chitin [5] and chitosan [6] have been used as immobilization matrices. Chitosan, a copolymer of glucosamine and N-acetyglucosamine units linked by 1-4 glucosidic bonds, can be obtained by N-deacetylation of chitin, which is the second most abundant natural polymer [7]. Chitosan was selected as the matrix for immobilization of the enzyme because of an unusual combination of its properties, which includes an excellent membrane-forming ability, high permeability toward water, good adhesion, biocompatibility, non-toxicity and high mechanical strength. In addition, chitosan has the susceptibility to chemical modifications due to the abundant in amino groups, which not only facilitate the immobilization of enzymes in chitosan by covalent binding [8] but also adsorb metal ions [9-13] and various organic halogen substances [14,15], then prevents the enzyme from damage. Moreover, chitosan can form a thermally and chemically inert film that is insoluble in water. So chitosan has been widely used in the preparation of sensors in recent years [1,16-22].\nGlutaraldehyde was usually used as a protein cross-linking agent in the fabrication of biosensor [6], while little use of glyoxal can be found in this area. The present work was attempt to develop a simple and robust amperometric hydrogen peroxide biosensor based on HRP immobilized by chitosan film cross-linked with glyoxal. We selected the “sandwich” configuration: ferrocene-chitosan: HRP: chitosan-glyoxal. The chitosan film cross-linked with glyoxal permitted high enzyme loadings due to the cross-linking reaction between the amino group of chitosan and aldehyde group of glyoxal. This cross-linking reaction simultaneously improves the stability of the chitosan film. There was no obvious redox reaction between the HRP and the H2O2 if no electron mediators existed in the redox system. Among the various mediators, ferrocene is a satisfactory candidate for the amperometric hydrogen peroxide sensor by measuring the reduction current. The one-electron oxidation of ferrocene to the stable ferricenium cation is a simple electron transfer reaction, in that there are no complications arising from adsorption or associated chemical reactions [23]. Therefore, ferrocene is utilized as the mediator for the determination of hydrogen peroxide in many studies [24-30], although the ferricinium as the water-soluble oxidized form of ferrocene is easily leached out from the electrode surface and leads to the instability of the enzyme electrode. In this study, ferrocene and HRP were immobilized on the glassy carbon electrode surface in sequence. We expected that the good membrane-forming ability of chitosan could improve the stability of ferrocene on the electrode. As a mediator, ferrocene accelerated the redox reaction. The mechanism of the electrons transfer is as the following:\n2. Experimental\n2.1 Apparatus and reagents.\n2.2. Procedures\n2.2.1. Preparation of the enzyme electrode.\n2.2.2 Measuring procedure.\n3. Results and discussion\n3.1. Optimization of experimental variables\nFerrocene as a mediator, the effect of its concentration on the biosensor response was investigated by varying the concentration of mediator (10.0-50.0 mM). As shown in Fig. 1, the biosensor response to H2O2 increased sharply with the increase of ferrocene concentration from 10 to 40 mM. Typically, when the mediator concentration was low, the biosensor response was limited by the enzyme-mediator kinetics. A further increase of the concentration of mediator resulted in a slight decrease in current response as the response signal was limited by the enzyme-substrate kinetics. Thus, the concentration of mediator was fixed at 40.0 mM for all the subsequent experiments.\nThe effect of applied potential on the biosensor response was tested and the results are shown in Fig. 2. The biosensor response to H2O2 increased with the change of applied potential from –200 mV to 100 mV. The highest sensitivity was obtained at –100 mV. A further increase of the anodic potential resulted in decrease in current response and then –100 mV was selected as the applied potential in amperometric detection.\nThe effect of the pH of supporting electrolyte on the biosensor response was tested in the range of 6.0 to 8.5, as shown in Fig. 3.\nFrom the graph, pH 7.0 was easily selected for the remainder of the experiments. Moreover, pH 7.0 is close to the optimum pH observed for soluble peroxidase [31] and avoids the possible dissolution of the chitosan film under the acidic conditions.\nThe effect of the concentration of chitosan used for the preparation of the biosensor was investigated by varying the concentration with 0.25%, 0.5% and 1.0%, which is shown in Fig. 4. Fig. 4, the biosensor prepared with 1.0% chitosan solution and 0.025% glyoxal (curve a) had a higher current response and wider linear response range than that prepared with 1.0% chitosan solution without glyoxal (curve d). It can be seen also that the response of the biosensor decreased with the decreasing of chitosan concentration in the presence of 0.025% glyoxal (curve b and c). The above results suggest that the improvement of response in the presence of glyoxal could be due to the cross-linking reactions between the amino groups of chitosan and the aldehyde groups of glyoxal, and amino groups of HRP and the aldehyde groups of glyoxal. More amino groups in 1.0% chitosan solution can be cross-linked with the aldehyde groups and thus more HRP can be immobilized on the biosensor. HRP and chitosan could not be cross-linked directly except via the glyoxal acting as a “bridge”. Nevertheless, the activity of the enzyme and the stability of the biosensor would be damaged if the concentration of the glyoxal were too high. Therefore, we selected 0.025% glyoxal as the cross linker.\n3.2. Voltammetric behavior of the enzyme electrode\nThe electrochemical behavior of the enzyme electrode was studied using cyclic voltammetry. Fig. 5 shows the cyclic voltammograms of the ferrocene-modified GCE (a) and ferrocene-modified enzyme GCE (b) in 0.02 M pH 7.0 phosphate buffer solution. Fig. 6. The cathodic peak current of the ferrocene-modified enzyme electrode was increased significantly when 1.94×10-4 M H2O2 was added (b), which indicates that H2O2 oxidizes Fcred to Fcox in the presence of HRP, and the Fcox is subsequently reduced at the electrode surface. No obvious increase of the cathodic peak current of the ferrocene-modified electrode was observed in the presence of 1.94×10-4 M H2O2 (a). These results suggest that HRP can be immobilized well in the chitosan film and remain its bioactivity.\n3.3. Amperometric response of the HRP electrodes\nFig. 7 shows the typical current-time response of the HRP biosensor for successive additions of H2O2 under the optimized experimental conditions. It is clear that a rapid and sensitive response to H2O2 is achieved.\nThe insert plot shows that the response of the biosensor to H2O2 has a linear relationship in the range of 3.5×10-5 to 1.1×10-3 M with the regression equation: ip/μA = 1.22×104 c + 0.29 (c in M, r = 0.9998). The detection limit of the biosensor was found to be 8.0×10-6 M based on S/N = 3 and the sensitivity of the biosensor was 172.4 μA mM-1 cm-2 which was higher than that reported before [32]. The apparent Michaelis-Menten constant (Kmapp) is calculated to be 2.0 mM according to the Lineweaver-Burk equation, which was smaller than those reported for HRP immobilized by sol-gel/hydrogel film [33]. The high sensitivity and the small Kmapp mean that the immobilized HRP possessed a higher enzymatic activity. When the concentration of H2O2 was 3.1×10-4 M, the relative standard deviation of six successive determinations was 4.1% (n = 6) with a mean current of 4.2 μA.\n3.4. Selectivity against interference and storage stability Table 1. Glucose, sucrose, citric acid, oxalic acid, cysteine, nitrate and fluride did not cause any observable interference except ascorbic acid. Ascorbic acid can reduce the (C5H5-)Fe3+ produced in the peroxidase catalyzed reaction and thus, interferes in the determination of H2O2..\n4.

{"text": "Inspections, Compliance, Enforcement, and Criminal Investigations\nCPG Sec. 398.325 Regulatory Actions Against Assemblers Noncompliant Diagnostic X-Ray Equipment\nBACKGROUND:\nAnalysis of Field testing performed on certified medical x-ray systems and components has indicated an unacceptable rate of failure to comply with the Diagnostic X-ray Standard. Most of these noncompliances result from assemblers who have failed to properly follow manufacturers' assembly instructions. Stricter enforcement to assure the proper assembly of diagnostic x-ray equipment is therefore expected to have an overall effect of reducing the rate of noncompliance.\n**\nCenter for Devices and Radiological Health review and evaluation of field testing records reveals that the most common assembler caused noncompliances are:\n- Collimation problems in radiographic, fluoroscopic, and spot film modes resulting in improper x-ray field sizing\n- Interlock misassemblies resulting in x-ray production when the primary barrier is not in position to intercept the fluoroscopic x-ray beam;\n- Problems with entrance exposure rates that are a result of miscalibration of the fluoroscopic x-ray control allowing selection of tube currents that deliver an exposure rate in excess of that allowed by the standard;\n- Misadjustment of the lamp voltage for collimator light bulbs resulting in inadequate illuminance from the light localizer.\nPOLICY:\nThe primary enforcement mechanism for assembler violations of the performance standard will be the assessment of civil penalties. Unless civil penalties against an assembler are proven to be ineffective means to achieve compliance, injunction recommendations will not be routinely approved. If violations continue, a return to court seeking injunction would be appropriate bolstered by the added weight that civil penalties have been ineffective. Injunction will also be considered where there is evidence of continuing gross negligence by the assembler or willful violation of the performance standard.\nREGULATORY ACTION GUIDANCE:\nCriteria for recommending civil penalties follow:\n- Test results are obtained as soon as possible after assembly but in no case more than one year after installation of the system or component (to minimize any claims by the assemblers that the noncompliance was due to normal wear and tear, improper maintenance, or improper repair).\nand\n- Field test results are classified as either Class A or Class B noncompliances described in Compliance Program *7386.003, Field Compliance Testing of Diagnostic Medical X-ray Equipment.*\nand\n- Both the assembler and the responsible headquarters official(s) have been advised in writing of past violations and warned of the legal consequences of continuing to commit such prohibited acts. Such a record of prior warning will not be considered necessary where injuries have resulted from the violations or where there is evidence that the assembler was grossly negligent in assembling the x-ray system or willfully violated the performance standard. FDA is required to notify the assembler of all violations pursuant to 21 CFR 1003.11 and 21 U.S.C. *360ll(e).*\nand\n- All notices of adverse finding presented in support of proposed charges related to field testing, must have been issued within 45 days of the date of the field test (60 days for State tests).\nand\n- Field test results on at least two different installations demonstrate noncompliant systems were assembled within one year after the notification and warning provided in criterion \"3\" and documentation demonstrates that the noncompliances are attributable solely to improper assembly or improper installation of a component into the system or subsystem.\nThe conditions in criteria 1 and 5 above (i.e., testing within one year of assembly and 2 violative installations after warning) are the absolute minimum criteria. Recommendations will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.\n*Material between asterisks is new or revised*\nIssued: 12/19/78\n10/1/80, 8/15/82, 3/6/84, 3/95, 3/2005"}

{"text": "This is part two in a three-part series about the Boston Celtics' three draft picks in the 2012 NBA Draft. Fab Melo is a center from Syracuse University who was drafted by Boston.\nPLAYER: Fabricio Melo - (Center - Syracuse Orange)\nDRAFTED: No. 22 Overall, First Round, Boston Celtics.\nHEIGHT/WEIGHT: Seven feet, zero inches/255 pounds.\nBIRTHDAY: June 20, 1990 (Age: 22)\nWINGSPAN: Seven feet, 2 1/2 inches.\nNBA COMBINE RESULTS: No step vertical - 29.5. Maximum vertical - 31. Bench Press - 9. Agility - 12.13. Sprint - 3.44.\nSCOUTING REPORT: Melo is a potential pick, and the Celtics have certainly taken a risk by drafting him. He has only been playing organized basketball for a few years, and that fact showed in his first year at Syracuse. Summing it up in one word: disappointing. That changed with one year under his belt, and he put on a strong showing in his second and final season with the Orange, ultimately winning the Big East Defensive Player Of The Year award. Melo is known for his shot blocking prowess, but he has a reputation for apathy and lack of conditioning. He has talent, but is a project, one that the Celtics need to complete.\nCOMPARISONS: At best, Brendan Haywood. At worst, Desagana Diop (from Draft Express).\nKEY STATS: Melo struggled mightily in his first season at 'Cuse -- he averaged a dismal 2.3 points, 1.9 rebounds and 0.8 blocks. His next season was far better, as Melo averaged 7.8 points, 5.8 boards and an impressive 2.9 blocks. Melo could have helped 'Cuse in the 2012 NCAA Tournament, but was ruled academically ineligible, sidelining him for the tourney.\nCAREER HIGHS: Points - 14 vs. St. John's. Rebounds - 10 vs. Pittsburgh.\nWHAT HE SAID: Quote(s) directly from Melo are provided below.\n\"That's right I am Celtic! It feels so good right. It's time to celebrate with my family. I will get back at y'all tomorrow.\" (Melo on Twitter)\nWHAT THEY SAY: Sean Keeley Of Troy Nunes Is An Absolute Magician, SB Nation's Syracuse blog, shared his thoughts and opinions on Melo's game below..\nYou really have to put Melo in perspective. He's only been playing basketball for a few years. He disappointed as a freshman but he grew by leaps and bounds as a sophomore. Heading into the season, if you would have told me he'd become a dominant defensive force and the most important player on the court for Syracuse, I'd have laughed you out the door.\nAs for Fab, I actually think he might [be able to transition well to the NBA and Celtics system]. Let KG go to work on him in practice and behind-the-scenes and by the time Garnett leaves, I think you could have a guy capable of taking the reigns. He won't be as good as KG, not by far, but he could hold his own, especially on defense. Fab's got it in his head that he's got an outside shot but he's kidding himself. Right now he needs to be all about improving in the paint on both ends.\nI can definitely see him grow into his role in the NBA and become a competent role playing center. He won't win you any scoring titles but he might be near the top of the blocks list. I'll say he's got the look of a guy who plays for 7-8 years for three teams or so.\nVIDEO/HIGHLIGHTS:\nIn-game highlights from Melo's time at Syracuse can be viewed at NBA.com.\nEXPECTATION: Melo isn't guaranteed a spot on the team from the start. Chance are, he'll spend some time in the NBA D-League with the Maine Red Claws -- sooner rather than later. As we've established, he is a work in progress, and hopefully he can benefit from learning from a defensive star like Kevin Garnett, should he return. If he is willing to put in the work and takes advice from the right people, he can carve out a role for himself here.\nFor NBA Draft 2012 news, follow our stream.

{"text": "By Amar Yumnam\nViolence has become increasingly ingrained into the daily happenings of Manipur and with no visible social response in sight to address the malady. Manorama happened in the hands of the Indian army and there was collective social response which shook the psyche of the nation. But after that we are not experiencing an improvement in the quality of social behaviour, and instead a downward social evolution seems to be in place. All of us cannot evade the responsibility now to apply collective and individual social conscientiousness as well as consciousness to rise to the challenge of evolving a robust social norm in right earnest. We cannot afford to allow the recent incident of the discovery of the dead body of a young doctor instead of her fruition of career efforts going down as an event in the daily history of the society. She was not just a girl but was an important resource of the land. Manipur is too small a society which cannot easily sacrifice such resources.\nWe must all ponder why such incorporation of violence in the daily social life has come about in our society. The society has experienced the immunity enjoyed by segments of population from all the violence committed on the general population for quite a few decades now. It is only recently, following the Commission of the Supreme Court of India, that the people have started seeing glimpses of the accountability of the crimes of violence catching up on the criminals of the state so long thought to be immune from any possible punishment. Manorama happened and even now the Indian Government says rapes under the Armed Forces Special Powers Act are something outside the purview of the normal law. But this perspective of immunity from the accountability of violence seems to have been absorbed as a social-wide lesson by those who have power of one kind or the other. Let us look back a little. The 1980s, 1990s and early 2000s are very significant in this connection. The immunity from accountability was exploited to the full by the army. This was also coupled by the behaviour and orientation of the provincial security forces. The provincial police during this period was visible by the flamboyancy of a few who imagined themselves as law unto themselves. Their behaviour day in and day out were marked by a display of capability to assert violent capability rather than encouraging and nurturing a social norm of following the rules of law. They imagined public civility as the fear public displayed of them. But global history of the connection between governance and society is that such approaches would not last and would have negative social implications. This is exactly what has happened in the case of Manipur as well. Taking cover under immunity from the accountability for violence seems being practised by some. However thankfully we see signs of a new energy inhabiting the provincial police force with effective country-wide networking and greater commitment to nurturing a culture of rule of law; the flamboyancy approach of the earlier era is now replaced by a newfound commitment to social responsibility.\nWhile the armed wing of the state should take a part of the responsibility of the spiritual nose-dive in Manipur in recent times, the onus should also be put on the shoulders of the quality of governance in the land. It is as if contractor approaches to governance has been put in place as the one capable of taking a society forward. We have not had any encompassing philosophy driving the social energy forward and any enticing social goal to fire our imagination. No society without any social philosophy and guiding spirit can ever be stable; a society needs a moral and an ethics much more than the contractors ruling the roost.\nThese are important elements contributing to the recent societal decline of Manipur. But we also need to ask if the society as whole does not have any role in this. Here I would like to call the attention to the character of Yaoshang today. Until about two decades back, Yaoshang was very much a social event in which cooperative and collective participation was absolutely ingrained and valued. The nakatheng groups were always representatives from quite a few families and consisted of like-minded children from a cross-section of families. The girls stopping the passer-by on the roads and lanes were also like this. But today the composition of both is invariably from a single household and at most an extended family; the earlier heterogeneity in composition is no longer seen. This implies that the festival which once served the cause of sustaining and nurturing social capital no longer does so. In other words, the factor of social coherence and collective sharing capable of addressing many social issues is now visibly weakened in Manipur. Here I remember the anguish of the elders particularly during the 1980s and 1990s when the period of thabal chongbas would extend till after the Manipuri new year (Cheiraoba). During the 1990s a visible movement for sports during yaoshangs became salient in order to replace thabal chongba occasions by sports events. This was a social response to the rising conversion of yaoshangs into merriment. Now this sports movement has definitely gained momentum and coverage. But in the process the society has lost something valuable collectively. Sports no doubt nurture the spirit of competitiveness and efficiency at the individual level but it does not enhance social capital. We have lost social capital for individualised competence. While replacing the festivities by sports, the society has incurred a collective lost in terms of social capital without putting anything in place as a substitute.\nThe concatenation of governance failures and erosion of social capital has now put the society into a situation of regularly witnessing the Manorama-like crimes being committed even by social members. It is such a painful social decline and something needing to be addressed collectively; individual responses would not serve the purpose. The society has to put pressure for enhancement of governance quality while at the same time evolving social norms capable of stopping Manorama repeatedly occurring. We need to move much beyond bandhs and general strikes."}

{"text": "US leaves Free Syrian Army leaders out of military planning\nRELATED\nAnalysts: US needs 'local ally' against Islamic State\nAs President Obama considers airstrikes in Syria and calls for an international coalition to fight the Islamic State, analysts say no country in the area other than Syria would be a likely candidate to send needed combat troops against the militants.\nUS history in Mideast hampers hopes for anti-Islamic State coalition\nThe United States faces no small task in drumming up allies to fight the Islamic State.\nObama now weighing airstrikes in Syria to combat Islamic State\nPresident Obama spent his first day back from August vacation Monday weighing his options against Islamic State militants — options that now include airstrikes in Syria.\nThis story has been corrected. The salary being paid rebel fighters is $150 per month, not $900 per month.\nGAZIANTEP, Turkey (MCT) — North of Aleppo, the U.S.-backed Free Syrian Army is battling the Islamic State terror group over a vital supply route.\nIn Washington, the Obama administration is groping for a strategy to deal with a force that Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel says is “beyond anything we have ever seen.”\nBut in this south Turkish city, in the office of the chief of staff of the rebel force, not much is astir, and the atmosphere is funereal.\nThis should be the hour of coordination and brainstorming between the U.S., its allies in Europe and the Middle East and the leadership of the appointed West here high and dry. Twelve to 14 commanders receive military and nonlethal aid this way in northern Syria and about 60 smaller groups are recipients in southern Syria, al Bashir said. They report to the CIA.\n“The leadership of the FSA is American,” said the veteran officer, who defected from the Syrian army two years ago and won respect for leading rebel forces in southern Syria. “The Americans are completely marginalizing the military staff. Not even nonlethal.\nPresident Barack Obama received the opposition leadership in May, and renewed his commitment to the removal of Syrian President Bashar Assad. But in an interview last month, he disparaged the fighters as “doctors, farmers, pharmacists, and so forth” and said it was a “fantasy” that they could overthrow Assad.\nThe issue of who hands out the weapons and funds provided by the FSA’s international backers isn’t just a turf battle between the Syrian opposition military leadership and the CIA, which runs the supply and training program.\nAccording to al Bashir, the lack of communication and the CIA’s “tactical” approach to Syria prevented a timely response when the Islamic State, using weapons looted from Iraqi bases, rampaged through eastern Syria in July and seized almost the entire region bordering Iraq. One commander said 2,000 rebel troops were killed, along with hundreds of civilians in the fighting. About 750 members of the Shueitat tribe were executed last month after a tribal revolt against the extremists, al Bashir said.\nHe said that if military aid had been distributed through the institution of the rebel Supreme Military Council, which stays in touch with all fighting fronts in the country, “the situation would be different. Terrorism and Daash” — a pejorative Arabic acronym for the Islamic State — “would not have spread as they have today.“\n“So I put the responsibility on the Americans for the spread of terrorism now on a larger scale than before,” he said. “And now the Americans are trying to combat terrorism and forget the regime at a time the regime itself is the source of this terrorism.”\nA senior State Department official who was not authorized to speak on the record said the U.S. “will never forget about the atrocities carried out by the regime. The food, medical supplies and equipment we provide to the Free Syrian Army is sustaining the fight against the regime every day.”\nBut al Bashir said he doesn’t know what the American strategy is.\n“You have to ask them. They are not contacting me,” he said, but that he thought the U.S. aim was tactical — to counter the Islamic state — and not the strategic goal of toppling the Assad regime, which allowed the Islamic State to plant its roots on Syrian soil.\nIn Reyhanli, 120 miles southeast of here, close to the main crossing into Syria, FSA commanders tell a different story. About a dozen Free Syrian Army commanders of fighters, many in groups larger than 2,000, are receiving weapons and material aid from the U.S. and other sources. They’ve sent forces into Ikhtrin, north of Aleppo, to reinforce the positions of the FSA fighters now in intense battle against the Islamic State.\nCol. Jamil Radoon, also a defected Syrian army officer, is based in Hama province, but has 2,400 fighters on different front lines throughout the country.\n(Asked about Obama’s put-down of the rebel force, Radoon said that his fighters are “country people,” but more than half are defected government troops and three-quarters have high school or college degrees. Among the 2,400 are 16 doctors, three pharmacists and an unknown number of farmers. They are led by 38 defected officers.)\nTroops reporting to him have received military training outside Syria — Frontline, the PBS documentary series, has reported that the facility is in Qatar — and use U.S. TOW anti-tank missiles with a very high kill rate, Radoon said. And with help from supporting groups in more than 100 countries, he’s able to pay fighters a salary of $150 a month.\n“Confrontation,” Radoon said, was the only way to deal with the Islamic State.\nRadoon doesn’t report to the staff of the Syrian Supreme Military Council, but to the Americans and other “friends of Syria” in the Military Operations Command established in Reyhanli. He says he works with the rebel military leaders, but notes those groups never regained control of the border posts they lost in December. The arrangement doesn’t appear to lend itself to developing a clear, cohesive strategy.\n“If we need any military advice or information, (the U.S. and supporters) offer it,” said Capt. Iyad Shamsi, a defected officer whose Asala and Tanmiah Front has 2,400 troops scattered around the country. “This enables us to be more professional. The most important thing is that they provide training.”\nU.S. officials won’t say how many Syrian rebels they’ve trained, or even how many Syrian rebels they’re helping to equip. But extrapolating from the size of the units claimed by two commanders and the U.S. official’s comment that some are smaller and some larger, it appears that as many as 40,000 rebels are now receiving support from the U.S. and other supportive groups.\nAl Bashir said 25,000 fighters are in both the north and south, while Nour Kholouf, the acting defense minister in the transitional government, speaks of 100,000 FSA fighters, only half of them armed.\n“I understand why al Bashir doesn’t like” the current arrangement, the senior State Department official said. “He doesn’t get the authority and credibility from the commanders that he would have gotten if he had food and medical supplies and equipment to distribute. ...We recognize that that’s not perfect from his point of view. It is perfect if what we’re trying to accomplish is to get equipment to the commanders rather than risk losing the stuff. We haven’t lost anything since we started doing business differently.”\nAnother major risk of the current distribution system is that it tends to produce warlords, each responsible for a small part of the country, and in rivalry with each other. The U.S. official called that a “valid concern,” but said that’s why it’s important for the anti-Assad forces to develop a better command structure.\nEfforts have begun to give the transitional government a new high profile, steps that, if endorsed by the White House, could heal the breach and establish the nucleus of an American policy for Syria. The newly elected head of the Syrian opposition leadership, Hadi al Bahra, has proposed moving the ministries of the transitional government into Syria.\n“We are working on the execution of our plans. We are discussing all the possibilities with our friends,” Bahra said, which could include restructuring the military leadership and distributing foreign-donated arms through it.\nGoing “back to Syria,” as he calls the plan, carries major implications for U.S. policy. If air cover is not provided by the United States and its allies, or if the U.S. continues to block providing air defense to the rebel government — which its leadership pleaded for at every stop in Washington, including the meeting with the president — they will be targets for Assad’s air force. It has employed missiles, artillery and barrel-bombs — barrels loaded with explosives and shrapnel — to attack the towns and cities under rebel control.\n“For sure, we will not risk the life of the people,” said Bahra, “but we will be sharing the same risk as they have.”\nU.S. officials agree that the exile leadership cannot move to Syria without air defense.\n“They’re convinced they can’t. I’m not going to disagree,” said the U.S. official. “I never heard our side disagree.”\n©2014 McClatchy Washington Bureau. Visit the McClatchy Washington Bureau at.

{"text": "Cosmology may be coming to an institution near you. The Middle East is surprisingly uninterested in cosmology, even though we have at least one eminent cosmologist that I know of (Qaisar Shafii from Egypt), cosmology has failed to take root in the academic institutions in the region. This I always found surprising, for research into theoretical cosmology is cheap to fund, all we need is a computer with an internet connection, and a supply of paper, pencils and erasers. I also find that arabs are very curious about cosmology, most arabs I meet quizz me about the Big Bang theory, the origins of the universe and such. Stephen Hawking was met with a huge crowd when he visited the university of Birzeit in 2006, yet the Centre for Excellence in Theoretical Physics and Applied Mathematics due to be built with EU funds sometime in the future do not have cosmology on their list of research aims (in fairness though they were very open to the idea of possibly including it). Apparently attempts to establish cosmology research groups in Lebanon, Egypt and Morroco have failed, due to apathy, and lack of a conducive research environment. This was a wakeup call to me, I had always thought that moving back to the Middle East and establishing such research would be a doddle. I do find it surprising on another level, since the Middle East is predominantly Muslim (except Lebanon, but even there we make up 50% of the population!), and the Quran strongly urges “looking up at the stars and pondering their origins” (c.f. Aal Imraan verse 191 + many more).\nAs a result of these unpromising experiences Dr Al Fakir has established the Muhammed Institute for Science of the Cosmos (MISC) and they have just launched their website.\nWHAT THE MISC DOES\nThe end product of MISC operations are substantial advances in astrophysics, cosmology, and space exploration, in the form of scientific papers in internationally recognised refereed journals, and collaborative experimental projects. To that end, MISC activities include (1) organising annual conferences brining together the MISC research community at large, (2) supporting specific research collaborations between groups of MISC researchers, (3) supporting senior researchers in dedicating extended stretches of time to the MISC, (4) planning and promoting Earth-based and space-born experiments that have bearing either on the physics of the Universe (gravitation, microwave background, etc) or on the origin of life (solar system exobiology, astrobiology, etc), (5) creating and nurturing branches of the MISC in various parts of the Muslim world, (6) creating opportunities for promising young researchers from the Muslim world to collaborate with seasoned MISC researchers.\nOf particular interest is the list of eminent non-muslim cosmologists who support the institute, Alexander Vilenkin, Robert Wald and William Unruh, which I find extremely promising. Eventually they plan on being able to fund visits to institutions in the Muslim world with a resident cosmologist, or visits from cosmologists based in the Muslim world, with the possibility of funding postdoctoral and permanent staff members. The potential increase in job opportunities aside (something of extreme interest to someone at my level), this will be great for the middle east (and muslim world as a whole) on many levels. It will foster creativity and ‘outside the box thinkin’, something I find to be lacking in the arab countries at least, interaction with experienced cosmologists, and the potential in excelling in something other than conflict and commerce (as in the UAE). The Muslim world has a strong history in Astronomy (see 1001 Muslim Inventions and George Saliba’s site for a summary), that even though we managed to severley neglect, makes us naturally disposed to this branch of science and we really should foster it once more.\nFiled under: Cosmology, Research | Tagged: Cosmology, muslim, science |\nI googled for the site, I couldn’t find it. Could you please post the URL for the Muhammed Institute for Science of the Cosmos (MISC).\nSounds interesting.\nThx\nI have updated the link in the article, it should work now. Alternatively, here is the site:\nSalam a Lakum,\ncan you tell us the name and source of the Cosmologu05 jpg image above?\nWould like to fimd the hires version of it, and learn of it’s name and sky region!\nFor all our world ancestors,\nMillennium Twain\nfather of the US/Intl Space Station Program,\npublisher of the Structure of the Atomic Nucleus\nMillenium Twain wa alykom\nthis image is known as ‘the mountains of creation’ and more info can be found here:\na want to learn about cosmology for my final project. would you help me what must i do to learn the basic of cosmology. where must i start to study first?\nFor some reason I have only just seen your post! If you are a student of Physics or maths, then the beginners book to Cosmology is one by Andrew Liddle “An Introduction to Modern Cosmology” is a good place to start."}

{"text": "Last Friday, May 29, 2015, we celebrated Plymouth Harbor’s first annual MacNeil Day! The inaugural event was sponsored by The Plymouth Harbor Foundation as means of celebrating our founder, The Reverend Dr. John Whitney MacNeil, born on May 29, 1911. As we near the milestone of our 50th Anniversary next year, it was only fitting to honor Dr. MacNeil and celebrate the past, present, and future of our thriving community.\nThe commemorative event took place in Pilgrim Hall, where nearly 150 residents and guests gathered to view a presentation by Harry Hobson, President & CEO, Plymouth Harbor. The presentation first reflected on Dr. MacNeil’s vision for Plymouth Harbor, which was realized on January 15, 1966, when Plymouth Harbor first opened its doors to community residents, then transitioned into present and future initiatives.\nThe presentation also included a video (shown below) containing heartfelt testimonials from historic community icons, including Tom Elliott, Plymouth Harbor’s first third-generation resident, and Judith MacNeil Merrill, the late Dr. MacNeil’s wife, now a resident of Plymouth Harbor. As Judith puts it, “John never lived here, but I live here now. It has come full circle.”\nWe look forward to MacNeil Day 2016, where we will celebrate Plymouth Harbor’s 50th Anniversary!

{"text": ".” .\n.\nAt Gettysburg the Excelsior Brigade suffered severely. Like his friend Father Corby of the Irish Brigade, Father O’Hagan gave battlefield general absolution to his men. As always, he was in the midst of the fighting, giving the last rites and helping the wounded. He gave the last rites to the scoundrel General Dan Sickles , the original commander of the Excelsior Brigade, after Sickles, now in command of the III corp, lost a leg, and almost the battle due to his ineptitude. Sickles lived to 1914, and one can only hope that the hardened old sinner gained some spiritual benefits from the ministrations of Father O’Hagan.\nComing through the war without a scratch, a small miracle for someone who served from 1861-65, Father O’Hagan served at many churches in Boston. In 1873-1878 he served as the Eighth President of Holy Cross. He died in 1878. He was a true Catholic, a true Jesuit and a true Patriot.\nAnd one wonders what he makes of Jesuits, especially American Jesuits, today.\nThe memoir from the Protestant Chaplain is disturbing. Apparently, a priest told a Protestant minister to hear a dying soldier’s last confession.\nChaplains can do much good. But, in the end it paves the way for indifferentism. In fact, perhaps an argument can be made that the “spirit of Vatican II” came to be in the collaboration of chaplains during WWII.\nI don’t get that from the linked passage. As far as I can tell the Protestant chaplain was a friend of the dying man and, at his request, fetched Father O’Hagan to administer the Last Rites, which he did, with the Protestant Chaplain present."}

{"text": "Kaplan CCRN: Certification for Adult, Pediatric, and Neonatal Critical Care Nurses\nProduct Description\nKaplan CCRN: Certification for Adult, Pediatric and Neonatal Critical Care Nurses provides test prep for registered nurses studying for the CCRN.\nIt features:\n- An in-depth look at all topics covered on the exam, from Cardiovascular to Renal to Gastroenterology and more\n- Two full-length practice tests—one in the book, one online\n- Detailed answer explanations\n- Tips on tackling the computer-based test format\n- Complete review of Professional Caring and Ethical Practice in the Synergy Model\n- Advice on the toughest question types, with practice questions in every chapter\n- Kaplan’s proven test-taking strategies\nDetails\nNo features available.\nRating\nI used the Kaplan NCLEX-RN review before taking the boards, and this one is proving to be just as helpful. It covers questions about taking the exam and how to prepare mentally, not just questions that will be on the exam. It also has a money back guarantee. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to take the CCRN exam and do well. I would buy anything by Kaplan again.\nRating\nMy colleague purchased this to review for the adult CCRN and we both reviewed it and it was the more worthless thing I have seen yet. Wrong answers, misprints, poorly worded questions. Having just taken the CCRN, I can tell you that if this was the book I had used, I would have flunked. It didn’t look any better from the neonatal or pediatric side either. Try Pass CCRN! or Critical Care Certification by T. Ahern, they won’t disappoint.\nRating\nKaplan CCRN, 2009 Edition: Certification for Adult, Pediatric, and Neonatal Critical Care Nurses (Kaplan Ccrn: Certification for Adult, Pediatric & Neonatal Care)\nThe ad said it was for a new book and the cover was damaged. It should not have been listed as new. Other than the damaged cover the book arrived in a timely manner.\nRating\nI found this guide to be too basic and incomplete. It will likely not give you enough information to pass the exam and the practice exams are worthless- way too easy. Having purchased three CCRN review guides- Pass CCRN, Critical Care Nursing Certification: Preparation, Review and Practice Exams, and this one, I can say without a doubt that this one is the worst.\nHaving just passed the exam, if I had to do it over again I would have only purchased the Ahren book, Critical Care Nursing Certification. I hope this helps and good luck.\nRating\nI am planning to take my CCRN exam in the year 2009, and I have heard good things about Kaplan review books. I have just started to use the book and so far it is great. I’m happy.\nRating\nIt is unfortunate that Kaplan let this book pass into publication. It is poorly researched, poorly designed, and it has countless typos (some pretty important ones). Rather than providing a useful, informative guide for those who are likely to be seeking certification (experienced, advanced critical care nurses), this book consists almost entirely of material which can only be called a scant overview of the topic.\nI do concede that some of the specific test-taking tips might be useful.\n“Pass CCRN” is a much, much better guide, and it costs about the same.\nRating\nThis book is more like a basic overview of the body systems and introduction to the broad concepts of critical care nursing. I don’t see it as a study guide for board certification. The typos, contradictions, and editorial mistakes undermine the book’s credibility and you end up feeling you can’t trust the information.\nI just can’t recommend it.\nRating\nThis book was the worst purchase I ever made. Everything I read was something I already knew. No tricks, no shortcuts, no pneumonics…..Nothing!! What a COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME!! I am really disappointed in KAPLAN for creating such a huge waste of paper. I wouldnt recommend this book to anyone!! If I could have, I would have rated it negative zero. DONT BUY!!\nRating\nI am very dissappointed with this book. The book does not separate out the text. Therefore, if you are studying pediatrics you have to go thru all of the adult info(which anyone who works in peds knows, it’s not the same). Also, the practice tests are not separated either, so they have a 150 question test but it relates to Adult, peds & neonatal. Why would I be studying & practicing test questions for an adult exam I am not going to take. I thought the book was a waste of my time and money and so I returned it. It is a very hard read even if you try to separate out the info yourself, it’s very frustrating.\nRating\nGreat book. Very simple to understand without going into too much detail. I hope it will prepare me for the PCCN exam!"}

{"text": "All Fish Dinner Lures Hand Crafted In Iowa By Americans All Components Are Made in the USA\nWell a Fish Dinner Lure is part of the \"Fish Dinner System\". The System is Comprised of the following 9 Benefits.\n1. We have 4 lure groups in a variety of sizes, shapes, weights and colors. More will be added if we feel the system ever needs to expand.2. Any Fish Dinner Lure can be cast, trolled or jigged in a variety of presentations.3. Any Fish Dinner Lure can be presented at all levels of the water column, thereby able to be offered in all fish feeding zones.4. Any Fish Dinner Lure can be used as a Search Bait to find the fish when they are located in any of the feeding zones.5. Any Fish Dinner Lure can and does replace the need for so many of those expensive Specialty Lures.6. Any Fish Dinner Lure is a Multi Species Lure. All Bass, Largemouth-Smallmouth-Kentucky & Whites, Walleye, Stripers, Hybrid Stripers Crappie, trout or any other predator species.7. Fish Dinner Lures, overall, are Low Cost and Durable, unlike many plastics and other soft baits.8. Lures from the Fish Dinner System will for certain improve your fishing success and your budget bottom line.9. Fish Dinner Lures are 100% American Made using American Components by American Companies. All lures in the Fish Dinner System are powder coated for superior durability. They can be used in fresh water or salt water with no worries of corrosion.\nThe \"Fish Dinner System\" & Just What is a Fish Dinner Lure\nLet me be honest, with exception of the Glitter Spinner there is really nothing unique about the lures that we make. Many are know by various other names*. The only real difference is that the colors, shown in my collection with the single exception of white, are not available in stores. So why buy from me? I am selling lures that fit into a lure system that myself, my guide customers, and my many clients, have proven over and again will catch a lot of fish and save you lots of money over time. More will be explained about this later on in the \"Fish Dinner System\" part of this article.\nNow to the question \"What is a Fish Dinner Lure, and why is it special?\" It is a lure that fits into the \"Fish Dinner System\" and will work under any situation you find your self in while on the water. One can cast it, jig it or troll it. It will take fish on the surface and all depth zones the fish will congregate in. The lure is simple, having only one set of treble hooks. It is made out of Lead or a combination of Brass and Lead and the colors are also simple. If you were to ask Guides, who key in on the Hybrid Stripers, Walleyes, White Bass and the Black Bass families, what color would they choose if they could have only one color in their tackle box, the answer would most likely be WHITE. Most of us have to make that choice or a similar choice based on our wallet size. So I have narrowed my color schemes down to 5 variations of white and chrome. Each variation has a purpose. There is plain white which to this day comprises about 30% of my sales and harvests about 60% of the fish I catch. Then comes white with a dark blue back. this color combo has the purpose of slimming the lure shape a bit along with a color similar to the bait fish. Then I add a Holographic tape with either a Scale pattern or a Prism pattern. The purpose of this variation is for the flash the tape gives off on bright days. The flash catches the eye of the fish when they are feeding heavily and seems to wake up those that appear to be sleepy and slow to bite. Also it has the effect of reflecting the ambient light available when fished deep giving it a more subtle appearance in deep water. I believe this triggers those finicky fish into biting.\nAll lures will work on one rod if that is all you have but if you can afford 4 rods here is what I would have. (All of the following can be purchased at most sporting goods stores, or in the sporting section of your local department stores.) None of these have to be specialty styles just standard stuff. A 6'6\" Spinning Rod in Medium Heavy Action, a good Spinning Reel with a high retrieve ratio of 5.3:1 or higher and spooled with a good 12 lb line (I prefer Berkley Big Game). Rig this rod with the Glitter Spinner. 3 good casting rods all 6'6'' long have 2 in Medium Heavy action and 1 in medium action. all spooled with 12 or 15 lb of your favorite brand. Rig each rod with a Spoon of different size and shape. Buying rod and reel combos will save you money in all rod selections. Or just use what you have. Most importantly make sure your line is good and keep the reel full.\nA bit about the \"Fish Dinner System\". I'll try to make this simple. The 2 main basic issues in a fish's life are good clean water and plenty of food. Seeing as we have little power over the living conditions let's move to the food. The forage that the fish have to live on varies from lake to lake. It is our duty as an avid angler to answer the time old question \"What are they biting on?\" Most reservoirs or impoundments and some natural lakes maintain a huge Threadfin or Gizzard Shad population. In these clear waters it pays to MATCH the HATCH. Izaak Walton made this point back in 1653 in his book The Complete Angler. Today that truth is still very important. The forage comes in all sizes and a host of colors. The most important item is size, then shape or profile then color.\nNo matter what body of water, or whether you are fishing fresh or salt water Shad are an important forage, and they are consumed in all sizes from 1/2 inch up to and approaching 5\" in length. Examples of other bait fish throughout the country include Alewife, American Shad and Blue Back Herring and are primary forage for our favorite predators. To imitate these forage fish I like to key in on lures that range from 1 3/8\" long all the way up to 3 1/2\" long. The shapes I like to have are Long and Skinny to Short and Plump and on to Shad Shaped. Then of course there is the Glitter Spinner that has sound, shape and color. To see shapes and colors, please visit the pages found by clicking the appropriate buttons in the navigation bar. All of these lures can be fished in all feeding zones for surface all the way to the bottom.\nWhere does one start? I select the Glitter spinner as my key search tool when the fish are not showing themselves. It has noise, color and shape. It is the most productive lure in the collection for surface and just under the surface feeding fish. The Glitter Spinner is also a sleeper lure when fished in the deeper zones, even all the way to vertical jigging near the bottom. The Flutter Spoons come in a close second. I keep all 6 lures in my collection available and on 3 or 4 rods. Once I find fish I cast the spinner until it is no longer productive. When the fish descend, and they usually do, I cast and count down and try different depths until I find the fish. If this does not work I move around the area studying the graph until I find the fish, then I drop a 1 oz. Flutter Spoon into the fish. If they bite, I will keep using that lure. If not I change lengths and shapes until I find their preference. Sometimes there is no preference they will bite anything presented.\nColor is another issue. My personal favorite color and also the favorite of many of my fellow fishermen is white. The use of the other colors are used primarily to vary what the fish see down there. A white lure is the most visible color down to 50' or so. Next comes the White with a Blue colored back which reduces the profile as those colors are less visible than white. Adding the Holographic scales to the white body make the lure a little less visible as the Scales reflect back the environment they are in, usually much darker than we realize and reflecting a much diminished amount of white. Next comes the prism color as it reflects just what the environment is, mostly dark, with only a border of White and Blue around the prism.\nLet's discuss the System. Most usually the fish hide in or near some form of structure, weeds or trees or whatever and at various depths. In addition to the Rod and reels Described above the successful fisherman must have a reasonably priced and decent fish finder. It doesn’t have to be fancy. Learn to use it and always have it turned on when fishing.\nWhy a graph? The photo at the right shows why one is so necessary. The Graph shown is My older Humminbird 717 fishing system. In the picture you can see many lines that run sort of horizontal but not straight lines. These lines are a group of Hybrid Stripped Bass that I was on in mid October of 09. Had it not been for the graph I would not have found these fish. I would have gone right on by. As it was these, and other groups discovered that day, offered up over 30 fish into my boat. Note the depth the fish are at. Using a 1oz. Shad Spoon or Flutter Spoon in both 1oz. and 3/4oz. were all productive on these fish. Note the straight line coming from upper middle to lower right. This is my Flutter Spoon descending into the school of fish. The depth to the bottom is 60.1 feet. Most fish hit the lure before reaching the bottom.\nThe system I use is simply this. For instance, if you happen on a school of fish feeding on top and you start tossing your lure into them and nothing happens, you may have the wrong size lure on. If you are using a 1 oz. spoon, try tying on a 1/2 or 3/4 oz. spoon. I know most of you are saying \"Why throw a spoon at them?\", use a top-water bait. Well here is why, Most top waters are fairly large and they may work but so will the spoon. The question boils down to this; if the top-water is to big it is hard to down size because most don't have smaller versions. Those that do, the weight is so light they are hard to cast, especially on windy days. Another reason to use the spoon is that you can stay farther away from the school of fish without causing the school to go down because of your boat. But you say a spoon does not have the top-water features, oh but it does, if fished correctly. Just cast your spoon into the fish and start your retrieve just before or as soon as it hits the water. Reel it in quickly and you will be surprised how many fish you take it. Far more than you expect. If your reel has a high enough retrieve ratio 5.3 to 1 or higher you can even make the spoon swim across the water and it will look like a bait fish trying to escape. Just hang on and enjoy a perfect day on the water.\nNow that the fish have stopped what next? Look at your graph and see if it shows fish. (See photo at the right.) Most likely it will, so drop that successful spoon down on them. Chances are very good that you will start catching more fish. Now if you had that top water lure on, you would have to take it off and go to the tackle box and hunt up a lure to use if you had one. That takes time and by the time you are back in business the fish may well have moved on. In the photo at the right you can see why the fish went down, all the way to 67.5 Feet deep. Note the big black area on the screen. That is a school of Gizzard Shad that the Hybrids were feeding on. Note the fish, horizontal lines below the school of shad, Note my lure dropping in on the shad from the left side of the screen under the \"62\" crossing the 42.5 foot mark in the graph. (I apologize for the picture quality but if you look carefully at the bottom under the shad you can see the faint lines of my lure moving up and down like saw teeth.)\nJust after this picture was taken the fish pushed the group of Shad to the surface and held them there for about 15 minutes of chaos and fun then back down they went. I caught at least 3 times as many fish deep as I did at the top that day. I never changed lures I used the same 1oz. Flutter spoon (white with blue back) all day long.\nDo You Get The Idea???\nA quick example is when you are casting your favorite top water bait into a school of fish feeding on shad on top. The action slows to nothing, you go to your tackle box and dig out a crank bait, but your fish finder graph says the fish have descended to 30 feet, you don't have a bait that will get that deep so what now? Most of you will set back and wait for the action to pick up or move on to another spot. If you were throwing a 3/4 oz. Fish Dinner Flutter Spoon into the schooling fish you could now drop it straight down to the 30 foot depth where your trusty fish finder indicated the fish were now located. When the fish come back up on top, you are all ready for them. Just start casting. The key, to the Fish Dinner System and Lures, is that you are always ready for the next situation. All of the lures I have selected will work on or near the top and anywhere in between the top and the bottom. JUST CHANGE YOUR PRESENTATION OF THE LURE ON THE END OF YOUR LINE. Does this sound to simple? It is not! Try it, you will like it. My customers and myself are committed to this System, and have, for several years now, proven that simple is divine. Large catches of Kentucky Spotted Bass and Hybrid Stripers, sometimes as high as 60 catches per day are possible, but averages closer to 20 or more per fisherman per day are realistic. The 8 year old Boy and his father in the Gallery of Success caught nearly a dozen just like the one he is holding from the same area and along with the guide caught more than 60 fish that day on a Glitter Spinner ,see it in the fish's mouth. Another bit of advice is that small lures can catch Big Fish, take for instance the Man on the party Barge, a new customer and believer in the Fish Dinner System caught this fish on a 5/8 oz. 1 3/8\" long Wiggle Spoon in Blue Back with Holographic Scales pattern, the lure being cast into a group of surface feeding fish.\nRemember this, The only thing absolutely necessary to a successful fishing trip is to have the right lures at the right time. Using the lures described on this site will give you all you will ever need. There is SIZE, SHAPE and COLOR. Subtle Changes in Shape, profile and color are the only changes that really matter to fish. For instance look at the color chart and visualize what a difference each color might look like to a fish below. Each color changes the profile of the lure shape. The white is all visible but the dark backs make the lure look smaller and the tapes reflect differently with the conditions down deep and at the surface. They also subtly alter the profile of the lure to the fish.\nSo how can the Fish Dinner System save you money? Look into your tackle box, how many different lures do you have? If you have 4 empty trays in your box you can place 1 ea. of my lure selections in each tray and you can cover nearly every situation you will ever face on any lake that offers Hybrid Stripers, Wipers, White Bass, Walleyes or any of the Bass family. I know I have done it and more of my friends and fellow fishermen are doing it. You can throw away those top water baits, that multitude of crank baits, the tangle of spinner baits, pork baits, the endless supply of worms and other soft baits. Yes they all work very well and you may enjoy the constant changing of lures until you find the one that gets where the fish are at any given time. If you do not have a tackle box full of lures or are just getting started with fishing then you do not need to power buy all of the various lures available. For less than $40 you can have every shape and size necessary in 7 basic lures from my collection. That's right 5 all white spoons and 1 each of the Glitter Spinner and Cindy K Spinner dressed in white will catch you more than 60% of the fish you will probably ever catch no matter how many lures you have.\nNow the recap. All you need to be successful is the following. 1 to 3 or 4 rods with reels loaded with Fresh line. 6 spoons of various sizes and spinners of 2 sizes. Additional colors for variable conditions are a plus but not absolutely necessary. Colors of white and variations thereof will suffice. And a good graph and trolling motor on your boat finish the picture. When all else fails Hire a Guide for a day with the idea that he teach you how to use and understand your graph.\n* The Flutter Spoon is sometimes known as a Ghost Spoon, a Prism Spoon or a Minnow spoon. The Wiggle Spoon is sometimes called a Wobble Spoon, Slab Spoon, or Keel Spoon, The Shad Spoon is sometimes called a Shad Minnow Spoon or a Blade Spoon so please do not be fooled by a name. The Glitter Spinner is similar to a Rooster Tail or a Mepp's Spinner. The confusion is understandable but there is no mistaking the fish taking power of the Fish Dinner Lures.\nWilliamsburg, Iowa, United States\n319-530-2851 luremaker@fishdinnerlures.com\nQuestions?

{"text": "The doctors at New Amsterdam hospital were faced with a blizzard-like snowstorm during Tuesday’s episode.\nThe episode started out with Dr. Max Goodwin realizing that the storm would keep the hospital busy, challenging how they could help patients coming in for medical help, especially since several hospitals in the city had shut down.\nDr. Lauren Bloom is at the Clifton House in Philadelphia. She’s holding a letter in her hand from Dr. Helen Sharpe, contemplating whether to open it. That’s when she is interrupted by a nurse, who tells her that a patient has overdosed in her room.\nWhen the nurse gets frustrated that Dr. Bloom can’t help her out, Lauren reminds her that she’s there because she’s not allowed to be a doctor. She asks the nurse to wait for a real doctor to help out the patient.\nDr. Max Goodwin calls Dr. Helen Sharpe, asking her to come to work again even though she just returned home. While Sharpe doesn’t appear too thrilled about going back into work, she’s less thrilled that she has to defend her working relationship with Max to her partner.\nDr. Vijay Kapoor’s patient argues with her husband, who doesn’t want to walk five blocks in the storm to get her phone so she can call her kids. The scene cuts to Dr. Sharpe walking into the hospital with Dr. Goodwin waiting for her.\nShe tells him about the weather outside and an accident that happened outside of Station 27, which means that ambulances can’t get to people who are in dire need for medical help.\nThat’s when Dr. Max Goodwin decides to bring the hospital to people in need.\nHe provides a list of 911 calls that have been made within half a mile of the hospital. Together in teams of two, the team starts heading out into the field to help people in need.\nDr. Iggy Frome talks to the children in the hospital about the scary storm. He tries to keep their minds off the storm by bringing out some games and showing them a dysfunctional weather app.\nIggy being a total weather nerd is adorable and hilarious. #NewAmsterdam\n— Witty Catchphrase (@azuramariposa) March 13, 2019\nThe team gets a call about an older woman who isn’t responding to knocks at her door. When Dr. Goodwin tells his team that he will go see her, Dr. Sharpe says that she refuses to let him go outside given his immune system. He asks her to go with him, as he’s a doctor and he can provide help.\nDr. Kapoor learns that the patient being treated for cancer is now in shock. A fellow doctor tells him that there’s nothing they can do and it will be a surprise if she lasts the night.\nHer husband is still getting some rest at the nearby hotel. That’s when Dr. Kapoor decides to head out into the storm to get her husband, so he knows what is happening to his wife. When confronted about his decision, he explains that he doesn’t want the couple’s last conversation to be about a stupid cell phone.\nGoodwin and Sharpe find a woman who was unresponsive near the hospital. They manage to bring back a pulse. Meanwhile, Dr. Reynolds finds a man in the street, covered in snow. He had fallen and hit his head.\nHe explains that his husband needs help. He had gone to the pharmacy to get medicine for his husband, who had extremely high glucose levels.\nAfter Dr. Reynolds sends another doctor along with the medicine for his husband, he realizes that the patient on the street has fallen on a fence and is bleeding to death.\nBack in the old woman’s apartment, Dr. Goodwin and Dr. Sharpe discover that the woman’s blood pressure is dropping. Max and Helen argue about who will go back to the hospital to get medicine for the patient, and Helen ends up winning, as she wants Max to stay inside and be safe.\nDr. Iggy Frome heads into the storm on the roof of the hospital but almost falls down. As he recovers, the door closes behind him, locking him out.\nThe show heads back to Pennsylvania, as Dr. Bloom watches the nurses try to revive the patient who has overdosed. After seeing their efforts, she gets involved, telling them what to do.\nShe gives the patient an injection and the patient recovers consciousness. After saving the patient, Lauren is seen walking out the door with a bottle of pills in her hand.\nDr. Reynolds is still on the streets with his patient. He’s trying to figure out how the spike has penetrated the patient, but he continues to joke. Dr. Reynolds learns that the patient isn’t cold, and the fluids he has tried to give him has frozen.\nMax is still in the apartment with the older lady, who reveals she’s a clairvoyant. While she appreciates the efforts made by Sharpe and Goodwin, she says that she knows she’s going to die.\nWhen Max is challenged by her beliefs, she plays a card trick on him, telling him that he has found the King of Swords card. She tells him that he helps people, but often to the detriment to himself.\nShe also predicts that Max will lose a woman in his life, and he tells her that while they have been going through a lot, he and his wife are fine.\nThat’s when the clairvoyant explains that she isn’t talking about his wife. It’s another woman who he cares deeply for. That’s when Sharpe comes back from the hospital.\nIf Max wasn't married, I would be all for him & Helen getting together, but he is…. So they both need to make sure no lines are crossed. @NBCNewAmsterdam #NewAmsterdam @FreemaOfficial #ryaneggold\n— Tasha Frye (@TheHotSpotTasha) March 13, 2019\nCan we like……………………… not even tease Helen and Max because freaking heck he's married with a kid on the way k thanks. #NewAmsterdam\n— Lady of Time Cosplay (@LoTCosplay) March 13, 2019\nDr. Kapoor is seen fighting his way down the street, trying to get to his patient’s husband. Meanwhile, Dr. Reynolds learns that he may be able to move the spike by loosening a bolt, so they can remove him from the streets with the spike in him. To keep the patient’s mind off the pain, Dr. Reynolds tells him to share information about his husband.\nReynolds relates to his patient, sharing his own stories about his family members. His efforts to remove the patient fails for now, but Dr. Reynolds isn’t done. If they leave together, they may survive. If they stay, they will die.\nDr. Frome remains trapped on the roof. One of the children he cares for steps onto the roof with the door shutting behind him. Now, they are both trapped on the roof with the child suicidal, wanting to jump off the roof.\nBack in the old lady’s apartment, Max tries to talk to Helen about him as a patient but ends up changing the conversation back to what they need to do to save the patient. Max decides to go back to the hospital to get equipment so they can monitor the patient remotely, and before he leaves, he tells Helen that he loves her as his doctor.\nThe clairvoyant patient picks up on these vibes, telling Helen that despite feeling some strong vibes between them, it will never work out between them. Helen points out that she’s his doctor and she’s dating someone while Max is married.\nBack on the roof, Dr. Frome tries to get answers from his patient as to how he’s doing. Frome inquired about his mental state, asking what is going through his mind. He tells Frome that no one notices that he’s there and he wonders whether people would even notice if he had killed himself.\nFrome tells him that he would be heartbroken to lose him as a friend. The two do their best to stay warm in the storm, as they wait for help.\nDr. Kapoor finally reaches his destination, but no one answers the door. To get the man’s attention, he climbs over to a window and bangs on it until the husband wakes up. When the husband sees the doctor, he knows something is wrong.\nDr. Reynolds tells his patient that he has loaded him up on morphine and that he’s ready to carry the patient the six blocks it takes to get to the hospital. The patient tells Dr. Reynolds to tell his husband that if something happens, it isn’t his husband’s fault. Reynolds pulls the man from the spike, carrying him to the hospital to save his life.\nDr. Goodwin and Dr. Sharpe are ready to leave their patient behind. As she tells them she was wrong about dying, she could have been wrong about her other predictions, including those involving the two of them.\nReynolds reaches the hospital with the patient. Meanwhile, Dr. Froome and the child are finally rescued from the rooftop.\nTonight!! Come see what all this white stuff flying around is. I’ll give you a clue. You can eat it. A thrilling new episode of @NBCNewAmsterdam at 10/9c on @nbc right after @NBCThisisUs\nPs. It’s part one of a two part episode. Coooool. #newamsterdam #DamFam pic.twitter.com/WverljQk7K\n— Tyler Labine (@TyLabine) March 12, 2019\nDr. Kapoor arrives back at the hospital with the husband, who has a chance to have some private moments with his wife. He tells her how much she means to him, as he holds her tight.\nBack in Pennsylvania, Lauren admits that she had taken the bottle of pills but also admits that she didn’t take any. She also reveals to her own counselor that she really wanted to take the pills, and adds that she will never be a doctor again.\nMax and Helen are on their way back to the hospital when Max falls weak. He tells her that she was right all along and that he’s indeed very tired. She cares for him in the streets, with him saying that he should probably listen to her more often. Together, they lean on each other as they make their way back to the hospital.\nDr. Vijay Kapoor gets credit from Dr. Frome about what he did, but Kapoor is reminded of the time his wife died and how they had fought before her death. She had gone to bed angry and she never woke up. He tells Frome that he’s hurting because he never got to tell her how much he loved her smile, her mischief, and her heart.\nWhen Max and Helen return to the hospital, Max sits down at the elevator. He’s tired and exhausted. They talk about their experiences with the clairvoyant. When she asks him if he believes in it all, he tells her that he isn’t sure. He asks her as well with the same answer.\nThat’s when Helen tells him that they need to talk — about them. As she says, “this thing between us…” the power goes out at the hospital and most of New York City. The episode continues next week.\nNew Amsterdam airs Tuesdays at 10/9c on NBC."}

{"text": "Endowment Partners\nEndowment building has been identified as a major priority by nonprofit organizations throughout the Ozarks region. The Community Foundation of the Ozarks’ board of directors has addressed this need by establishing a program that supports endowment building and assists organizations in capacity building. The Community Foundation of the Ozarks works with more than 240 organizations through the endowment partners program.\nThe Endowment Partners Program Includes:\n- Investment management and technical support\n- Endowment building training opportunities\n- Endowment building mini-grant program for program partners\n- Increased visibility\n- Technology linkages\nParticipating agencies also have the satisfaction of knowing that they are important partners in a regional effort to improve and enrich the lives of people throughout the Ozarks.\nFor more information on this program please contact Julie Leeth, 417-864-6199.\nCapacity Building Funds and Endowment Partners\nEndowment Partners are in the unique position of partnering with Community Foundation of the Ozarks by establishing a Capacity Building Fund. These organizational funds are not permanent funds, but rather allow the agency flexibility in distributions. There are three primary reasons to consider such a fund:\n- Capital campaigns—As your organization raises assets for the purpose of the campaign, the money can be invested in a money market account or in the commingled fund and can be withdrawn either incrementally or in total, when the project or purpose of the campaign has been completed.\n- Reserve—Some groups currently may have reserve funds that they do not need to access in the foreseeable future. Letting these funds grow in a capacity building fund while having total access to all or part of the money at any time, is a plus.\n- Accessibility–The final reason for considering a capacity building fund is simply the desire of the organization to keep assets fluid rather than tying them up in an endowed fund which has a spending policy.\nWe stand ready to visit with your agency should you have an interest in learning more about how a capacity building fund might benefit your organization.\nRelated Links:\n- Nonprofit Prophet\n- Missouri Foundation for Health\n- Endowment Partners Survey Results\nResults of a survey conducted this fall by the Center for Research and Service at MSU.\n- Nonprofit Needs Assessment Report\nResults of a nonprofit assessment conducted by the Center of Research and Service at MSU.\nMonthly Endowment Partner Updates"}

{"text": "Website:\nHaving heard interesting reviews about this place, SK and I decided to check this place out on arvo, and with a nice warm day in the books, I couldn’t find any reason not to enjoy a pint of beer with what we’d hope to be some awesome food.\nWe came here to actually check the place out more than anything, to have a drink and some snacks because we were intending to end the evening at the beloved Andaluz bar in Perth. We found ourselves a neat parking lot just directly opposite the bar and found ourselves waltzing in to find a range of seating areas to suit different styles – vintage, bar, casual window, high tables and a lovely back area that we fell in love with comprising of crates and roof window that opens up when the day is lovely to let all that light stream in. No second guesses as to where we sat! Oh, not forgetting a pool table! I have yet to exercise my long-lost skills on that table, but I know I will one day.\nAnyway, we had a look at the menu, and my first impression was, “wow, what a long list of beer!”… they weren’t all tap, but they did have a very intriguing list of beers – how I wish I have the capacity to actually all those beers! We scanned through the food choices too, and finally ordered:\n- Serve of Chips (served with a special aioli)\n- Marinated Octopus\n- Sassy Red\n- Blanche de Namur\n- Pilsner Urquell\nOn other occasions (yes we have been back… and back… and back. It almost feels like a second home – to me at least), we have ordered:\n- James Squire Apple Cider on Tap\n- Field Mushrooms with Danish Feta and Balsamic Vinegar\n- Reuben Sandwich\n- Open Pork Sandwich\n- Champagne Jelly with Strawberries & Cream\n- Brownie with Ice Cream\n- Tiramisu\nThe chips are always a favourite whenever I feel like some good fat potato strips fried in oil – because that’s exactly what they are. If you prefer the Macca’s type of chips (i.e. slim, skinny, not too much potato), then this may not be your cuppa. I personally would order this only on a case by case basis, though the taste of the chips and the aioli do have a great combination.\nThe marinated octopus was lovely. Enjoyed it thoroughly, and I would have had more if not for my abstinence from eating too much seafood. Not too sure if this is still available on their menu though – it does change with the seasons! More variety. Yay!\nMy personal favourites of this place are really the field mushrooms and the open pork sandwich, both of which are becoming regular orders whenever I visit this establishment. The field mushrooms is a must order if you love mushrooms because the combination of those ingredients is just AWESOME. Lovely. Such a great dish. MmMm. I want some now! The open pork sandwich grows on you bit by bit by bit. The initial bite, you would think, “Hmm, it’s alright”… then you take another bite, and go, “hmm. Nice”… and before you know it you keep taking bites until there is none left and you still want some more! Dangerous effect I say.\nThe reuben sandwich is great if you like your meat and your cheese because it is just packed full of it (as it should be). According to our friends at Wikipedia, The Reuben sandwich is a hot sandwich of layered meat, sauerkraut and Swiss cheese, with a dressing. These are grilled between slices of pumpernickel or rye. And Five did exactly that. Got a bit much for me since I have reduced my meat consumption over the past 2 years, but it is a delight to eat. Would order it again if I was feeling like a carnivore.\nI’ve tried all three main desserts that Five Bar has to offer, and my personal favourite is the Brownie with Ice Cream. It wasn’t overly sweet and the brownie wasn’t too dry as well. Lovely.\nThe rest of the desserts are absolutely stunning in presentation, but not really to my palate unfortunately. The Champagne Jelly sounded so enticing that I ordered it because I was just curious, and I thoroughly enjoyed the strawberries and cream, but am not too used to the flavour that the champagne jelly brought. The tiramisu had a nice coffee taste on the base, but a tad too much cream for my liking – so if you like your cream with tiramisu, then this would be for you!\nMy favourite drink by far at Five Bar would be having their James Squire Apple Cider. Yummo! And here’s the best part – it goes so well with their food!\nWith so many different areas to choose from to sit depending on how you feel on the day, you would actually want to go back just to try their different seating areas! I do anyway. The service has always been spot on, and now that I’ve gotten to know some of the staff members, it is always a delight coming back. Based on my initial experience, there was this level of friendliness in the staff that I was really impressed with.\nOverall, such a great bar to go back to, even if it is just for 1 hour, to chill, relax and have a pint of their gorgeous James Squire Apple Cider! And look out for their new 2012 food and drink menu too!\nRating: 3.75 out of 5 stars\nRating by: S.T. a.k.a Miss Egg\nFive Bar\nTelephone: 0467 534 267\nAddress: 560 Beaufort Street, Mt Lawley"}

{"text": "Wednesday, October 19, 2005; Page A20\nDISAPPOINTMENT awaits anyone who hoped that Harriet Miers's written Senate questionnaire would begin to explain who she might be as a justice on the U.S. Supreme Court. The 65 pages made public yesterday contain a financial statement and a career history replete with conventional legal practice, bar activities, and worthy charitable and public service stints. Yet they contain a great deal more information than insight, and they do nothing to illuminate why President Bush regards this particular lawyer, among the countless available to him around the country, as \"uniquely qualified\" to serve on the nation's highest court. The most revelatory fact about Harriet Miers emerged yesterday not from her questionnaire but from her past: her commitment, as a candidate for Dallas City Council in 1989, to \"actively support\" a constitutional amendment to ban abortion except when the life of the mother is at risk.\nInsofar as Ms. Miers addresses substantive questions at all, her answers seemed closely modeled on those of Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. She, too, professes belief in a \"humble\" judiciary that respects the importance of \"stability in the law\" and consequently respects established precedents except when reconsideration of those precedents \"under appropriate circumstances is also necessary.\" She, too, emphasizes that judges are not policymakers and occupy a limited, though critical, role. All of which are noble, important sentiments, but they are also noble, important sentiments that the American public has just heard from someone else. The burden on Ms. Miers is heavier than the one on Chief Justice Roberts, whose nomination arrived at the Senate with an enormous presumption in its favor given his stellar credentials and reputation. Simply reading off his script will not do.\nMs. Miers did not even attempt to reassure skeptics that she will be adequately independent of the White House in which she has served for nearly five years or of the president she has represented for even longer than that. Asked how she would handle potential conflicts of interest on the court, she noted that she would \"abid[e] by both the spirit and letter of the law.\" Even Chief Justice Roberts, who had nowhere near the baggage she carries on this issue, laid out his presumptive recusals more specifically than that.\nThe White House last week tried to sell this nomination to restive conservative allies on the basis of Ms. Miers's religion, at least implying that her evangelical Christianity would lead to results they liked. This was an offensive tactic -- just as offensive as the suggestion, say, that Chief Justice Roberts's Catholicism should be a strike against him. When it backfired, presidential spokesman Scott McClellan criticized the press for focusing on \"side issues\" such as religion, as though the press had brought the matter up. The White House now wants to talk about her qualifications. But in looking through her questionnaire, her biography does not obviously cry out for nomination to the Supreme Court. While the president's choice deserves deference from the Senate, Ms. Miers needs to earn confirmation on her own."}

{"text": "Beware Phishing Schemes\nYesterday I wrote a joke post about how I won about a billion dollars in an “international lottery.” Hopefully everyone understood I didn’t actually win a billion dollars but I was just pointing out how obvious a scam that was. Everyone with an email address has gotten email from “Bank of America” (not really BoA, a farce BoA) or “Paypal,” requesting personal information. I’m sure you’ve even been asked by the envoy of a recently deceased monarch (Nigerian?) to “hold funds” if you are willing to send them some bank information. Maybe you’ve been asked to verify your account information at Ebay… but bottom line, they’re all phishing scams and you shouldn’t respond to any request by anyone to provide sensitive information.\nI believe phishing referred to back in the day of modems and bboards, phishers would call up blocks of phone numbers in hopes of hitting a bboard they could interface with. Now, malicious scammers send out spam to try to catch a tiny percent of folks who do respond to these emails. NEVER RESPOND.\nWhat if someone calls you and asks you to verify information? If it’s Bank of America (and you actually have a BoA account, which I don’t), then say thank you, hang up, and then call them back. Look on the back of your Bank of America card and call them. If anyone ever asks you for information, call them back and go through the official channels if you’re seriously concerned. 99.999% of the time it will be a scam.

{"text": "A plastic scarifier for grandad\nOver six days before Christmas I make some suggestions. They are tools that I regularly use. I cannot claim that there are not better ones and if you have your own personal favourites please let me know\nPlastic lawn rake\nDraper 31069 550 mm Large Head Plastic Leaf Rake\nI was annoyed. Not so much that my new lawn rake appeared to be so flimsy, more at myself that I should expect more for a fiver. I thought I might make an unfavourable comment to the vendor but was too lazy.\nI was going through one of those phases when I wanted to attack the coarse grass in my lawn by raking it high to be chopped by my mower. Not a very successful management strategy and my metal scarifier had lost too many tines. Hence my parsimonious buy.\nI was wrong. My thoughts were a slander. It is a wonderful gadget. What I thought flimsy is light, strong and whippy. After several years it still holds together - although Cathi’s one is now somewhat dog eared. The strong plastic blade really is rather durable.\nIt’s no good for heavy aspects of lawn scarification such as raking out moss but for my original purpose works very well.\nIt is superb for raking up light litter such as leaves on the lawn or debris on the border or collecting hedge clippings. It is a pleasure to use. I love it when I flip out the flotsam from the lawn edge and - in my case - mulch the border.\nIt is my first port of call when I need to sift out water weed and filamentous algae from my two rather large ponds.

{"text": "Having anxiety and starting a business can be rough. The overthinking about the what ifs is added stress. Today I want to talk about starting a home business. How you can get your business moving and growing without letting anxiety take control.\nI started my “laptop lifestyle” back in 2013 with a blog. It was mostly a hobby, but it grew and I saw that it didn’t have to be a hobby that it could be a business. Without hesitation, I went from a free WordPress blog to, buying a domain and setting up my blog as my business venture.\nWhy was there no hesitation? Why didn’t anxiety kick-in? Well, one I had already tested the waters and answered many of the what ifs. I worked hard on my blog and I saw everything I did as a way to express myself and share with my readers. As the blog grew, I saw other ways I wanted to grow my brand.\nMy blog was just the beginning. I had a vision, so I bought a domain for that vision. I even started a website, but the vision changed just a tad bit as I wanted to go a different route with my brand. Which lead me to purchase a couple more domains. My vision was to have a consulting agency. That part of the vision did not change. I figured out I did not have to do it along and that I did not have to have just one niche or one type of business.\nFast forward to now, I’ve since added another part to this vision with another domain. I decided that I was going to take my “laptop lifestyle” to the next level. So I launch Jay Creed Coaching + Consultant. With my focus on helping women with anxiety and becoming a mompreneur (or just becoming a fempreneur). Shortly after I launched Jay Creed Designs as the sister site to Jay Creed.\nAs I continue to work on building my brand, I also get a few kicks from anxiety. Are you crazy? You can’t have a consultant business and design business. But guess what? Using my own advice of building confidence. I’ve built my confidence; YES, I can do anything. You will not know if something will work if you do not try. If I want the laptop lifestyle, it requires work and sometimes it requires have multiple streams of income. Which is a reason I am also a doTERRA Wellness Advocate and NuSkin Distributor.\nI am my brand! I am a mompreneur! I market all under one name. One way I try to nip anxiety in the butt within my business social media is by not have different social media accounts for my Beachbody coach or NuSkin – that’s how overwhelm can step in. And overwhelm and anxiety are friends. Those two together will bring stress to the party. Plus, I think about the added time it would take to manage additional accounts. I’m not at the stage in my business where I need a VA just yet. Being Certified in Hootsuite Social Media Marketing helps me with social media and do it with ease.\nAnxiety doesn’t have to stop you from starting or growing your business. Build up your confidence and take on anxiety one day at a time. You are in control of your business. The only way to see it grow is to start. Just like plants, you have to water them to see them grow. Do the same with your business.\nRemember anxiety doesn’t define you. Even though anxiety can be an uphill battle. You can accomplish your goals. When you do, you can laugh in the face of anxiety.\n"}

{"text": "George Soros delivered his annual speech at Davos which he devoted to discussing the geopolitical situation. Once again, Soros spent the bulk of his time on Donald Trump, and Russia. However, Soros finally realizes that the biggest threat is China. As I have pointed out for years, Soros’ fearmongering of Russia helped push that country into the hands of the Chinese. In addition, a lot of political attention has been diverted to the nonexistent Russian boogeyman which helped China as it continued its economic and military aggression. Russia has been on the decline for 30 years, in contrast, every year China is getting stronger and stronger. Soros acknowledges China is the main threat but its too little too late.\nBelow are some excerpts from the speech. by the end of the year my hopes were dashed. The strongest powers, the US, China and Russia remained in the hands of would-be or actual dictators and the ranks of authoritarian rulers continued to grow.\n….\nI hate to say I told you so but the attitude of Soros and many of his Davos friends, many big investors like BlackRock, Blackstone, Goldman etc ensured that the above happen and will continue to do so.\nFurthermore, Soros states;.\nAt the end of his speech Soros blames Trump for how he is dealing with the issue.\nSoros states:\nUnfortunately from an open society point of view, he is capable of doing so, as he has demonstrated by putting Huawei on the bargaining table with Xi Jinping.\n5G is an issue no one before Trump even lifted a finger to combat. Even now, many European countries are allowing Huawei into their network. If it was up to Soros and his WEF friends Huawei and their spying apparatus would be an integral part of US communications within the next five years.\nI agree Huawei should be a separate issue, but if it was up to Davos type “experts” it would not be dealt with at all. Did Soros in his obsession with Russia even mention China until Trump made it front and center?\nSoros further continues:.\nThis is naive and I wish it were true, but there is no evidence for it. The hope was China would become more democratic as it traded more with the West. China places high values on its education system but rightfully many residents see that their system has many of the benefits of ours without the downsides.\nSoros (at least this year) did not warn of a world war with China, but lets hope that his round about on this topic will not be too little too late to prevent such a catastrophe.\nSee the full transcript here.\nThe video can be found here."}

{"text": "How Does Someone Survive an Abortion? I Did and Here's How It Happens\nby Steven Ertelt | Albuquerque, NM | LifeNews.com | 8/15/11 11:52 AM\nA pro-life group has obtained more copies of 911 calls made by two abortion businesses in Albuquerque, New Mexico concerning eight more women who have been victimized by botched abortions. State officials are already looking into the problems.\nA series of botched abortions in New Mexico have prompted state officials there to launch investigations into three late-term abortion practitioners exposed by Operation Rescue.\nAfter the release of the original calls, involving Southwestern Women’s Options, an abortion clinic in Albuquerque, and UNM Hospital, which operates its own abortion business, the UNM Center for Reproductive Health, OR told LifeNews it has been notified by the New Mexico Board of Physicians that three Albuquerque abortion practitioners are under investigation. Shelley Sella and Susan Robinson, late-term abortion practitioners who formerly worked for the nation’s largest late-term abortion clinic in Wichita, Kansas, prior to its closure in 2009 are two of the three facing probes. Texas-based abortion practitioner Curtis Boyd, who owns Southwestern Women’s Options in Albuquerque, where the 911 calls originated is the third.\nNow, Operation Rescue has obtained eight new 911 recordings that reveal a further pattern of botched abortions at the two Albuquerque abortion clinics. Together with five 911 calls released last month, the 13 calls show that life-threatening abortion complications requiring emergency assistance occur at the rate of one every 10 weeks, the group says.\nThe eight newly obtained calls were placed between November, 2008 and December, 2009, with six originating from Southwestern Women’s Options, owned by Curtis Boyd, and the UNM Center for Reproductive Health, abortion 34 practitioners involved.\nOR obtained the audio of a handful of 911 calls showing women victimized by failed abortions at an abortion center in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The series of calls were made over a recent 15-month period from Southwestern Women’s Options, an abortion clinic in Albuquerque that it says is presiding over abortions that are clearly dangerous for women.\nUNM Hospital, which operates its own abortion business, the UNM Center for Reproductive Health, was the subject of another botched abortion that necessitated a phone call to 911. In that disturbing 911 recording, the patient can be heard groaning and struggling for life."}

{"text": "Why was coach only one named?\nRe: your Jan. 27 article “Ventura Unified reinforces fund rules”:\nI am deeply disturbed by the article, especially in its reference to Coach Dave Guenther. I have had no children play under the coach but have been an involved parent in VUSD schools since 1983. I vividly remember trips that sports teams were taken on by coaches at both high schools over the years. I even remember questioning said trips to people at the school district level. This has been a practice that has been around for years and years.\nHe did not magically become a head coach of a high school team. He saw these trips as a player in his high school years, and certainly he learned about coaching from his years as an assistant coach at Buena.\nIt is most likely a practice his mentors and other coaches he knew within the school district used too. Certainly, people at every level made big mistakes over the years with these funds. The ASB bookkeepers, the athletic directors, the individual school administrations — if there was training, somehow, they all did not learn their lessons well. Why was the coach the only one named in these stories?\nYour article insinuates that the coach is wrong when he claims there have been no trainings. Were these trainings a mandatory class for all district coaches and others that would be handling funds for the teams, or were they optional? Was someone signing off that a coach had attended? Did the reporter ask to see records of said trainings and attendance at them? Venturing a guess that those things do not exist.\nPerhaps the article could have addressed these long-held destination games. There have been many by various teams. Hanging one coach out to dry over a practice of many is not the best reporting. A bit of digging could have shown that just as the saying goes, \"Children learn what they live.\" So do young coaches coming up. He did not start this practice. That does not mean two wrongs make a right, but please do not continue to use him as the only example of this practice.\nPamela A.

From the flagship wine – the famed Graveyard Vineyard Shiraz to the commercial, Cricket Pitch Range, Brokenwood’s commitment to producing wine of the highest quality is always evident.\nT\nThe first vintage was picked in 1973. While none of the original partners claimed to know anything about viticulture, the wine received praise, and attracted a loyal following from its first vintage.\nIn 1975, a new winery was built to accommodate the growing production. Graveyard Vineyard created Brokenwood’s flagship wine, the Graveyard Vineyard Shiraz, which is still sourced exclusively from this one vineyard.\nIn the same year, Brokenwood sourced fruit from outside the Hunter Valley for the first time which was blended with Hunter fruit to make a premium red, creating the style that has been synonymous with Brokenwood for the last 20 years.\nTypically when visiting guests are organised to be a part of the Brokenwood Experience which allows for a seating of wine tasting matched with delicious corresponding canapes.
