Paul Pogba left out of Man United team vs Sevilla
Paul Pogba Interview - 'United Aren't Scared Of Anyone!' - Image credit - RedDevilsLatest | YouTube
€105 million man Paul Pogba omitted for Champions League clash in Spain.
by Dan Ashmore (article) and Maid Milinkic (video)

A rift between Paul Pogba and Mourinho - Video
Paul Pogba was last night Left Out of Manchester United's Champions League lineup in Spain. Playing Sevilla in the round of 16, Jose Mourinho opted to go with a midfield trio of Andre Herrera, Scott McTominay, and Nemanja Matic. The decision has given fresh impetus to the rumors that Pogba may be on his way out of Old Trafford, after reports from French newspaper L'Equipe last week suggested that the Frenchman regretted his return to Manchester in August 2016.
Recurring trend
Pogba was also a notable omission from the team to play Huddersfield last weekend, with illness cited as the reason.
But with Mourinho no stranger to bizarre power-plays, the jury is out on whether there is something else going on behind the scenes in Old Trafford. All this comes after he was ignominiously hauled off after 66 minutes in the 1-0 upset at Newcastle. Pogba had just been beaten in the air by a relatively benign long ball set-piece which ended up leading to the Magpies' winner.
As it turns out, Mourinho's hand was forced by circumstance, with Herrera succumbing to injury after only 17 minutes in Seville.
Pogba's number was called, and he belatedly took his place on the left-hand side of the midfield trio. While Manchester United was forced to dig in perhaps more than should have been the case, they held firm for a 0-0 draw; a solid result that they probably would have taken pre-kickoff. But a professional, albeit somewhat laborsome job, won't cloak what seems like a widening chasm between manager and star man.
Paul Pogba is a €105 million footballer sitting on the bench, his manager favoring little-known Scott McTimonay over the mercurial Frenchman.

Familiar ground for Mourinho
But, of course, this is hardly against the grain for The Special One.
While at Chelsea, Mourinho unceremoniously dumped two time Chelsea Player of the Year Juan Mata, with little explanation offered. While the diligent Mata has since worked his way back into the good books in the United side, Pogba's predicament shows no sign of abating. Mourinho was cryptic and reticent when asked by the press about any rift. Pogba, for his part, has been quiet, but there's no smoke without fire, and the French reports last week certainly don't ease the nerves.
Pogba hasn't set the world alight since he returned from Turin, but he has been steady and is still only 24 years old. His talent is unquestioned, and he remains the only midfielder at the club who can single-handedly grab a game by the scruff of the neck. There are simply things he can do that others cannot, and on his day he is unplayable. One hopes this is merely Mourinho's way of trying to coax the best of this enigmatic midfielder, rather than a signal that he has given up on him.
Let's not forget that Manchester United have given up on Paul Pogba once before, and it ended up costing them €105 million.

Macy's sells five stores to General Growth Properties
Macy’s on Monday announced that it has sold five retail locations to General Growth Properties, four of which were sold in the third quarter for a sum of $46 million.
The four stores, Carolina Place in Pineville, NC; Oakwood Mall in Eau Claire, WI; Quail Springs Mall in Oklahoma City, OK; and Tysons Galleria in McLean, VA, have a combined square footage of 666,000-square-feet and 258 employees altogether. Macy’s opened the stores in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and closed its Quail Springs Mall location in 2016. The fifth location, Greenwood Mall in Bowling Green, KY, stands at 124,000-square-feet and was sold earlier in the year.
The retailer sold the locations to GGP as part of its previously announced plan to drive profitable growth. Macy’s will reallocate investments to its highest-growth-potential stores and digital businesses. The Tysons Galleria location will continue to operate, but the Carolina Place, Greenwood Mall and Oakwood Mall locations will close in spring 2017 after the holiday season.
Macy’s in August announced plans to shutter 100 stores by early 2017. The retailer reported sales declines for six consecutive quarters, and it will hire less temporary workers for the holiday.
Macy’s plans to invest its gain from the store closures into online. The company also expects to realize a gain of $32 million from the sales in the third quarter of fiscal year 2016.

5 Year Fight for Critical Habitat for Southern Resident orcas
Orcas off the Olympic Coast of Washington (National Marine Sanctuaries) Expanding critical habitat for Southern...
Russian quota issued for 10 more orca captures
By Erich Hoyt | 08/26/2014
What now for Russian orcas?
Following the news that two orcas were captured in the Okhotsk Sea, Russia, we now have the announcement of the 2014 quota allowing potential captors to apply for permits to catch 10 more orcas. Actually, usually the quota and the permit process happen before the actual captures, but this is Russia.
The captors of the two orcas have said that they had captured them in 2013, keeping them in a bay in the southwest Okhotsk Sea. However, anyone with rudimentary googling skills can confirm that the southern Okhotsk Sea is frozen solid in winter. That fact would have to suggest the orcas were kept literally on ice. More likely, they were captured illegally some few weeks ago before the quotas were issued.
We are currently investigating the legal recourse for the two orcas captured, while trying to digest the surprisingly high new quota. According to the Russian Federal Fisheries Agency announcement, it has now obtained so-called “expert” advice from the so-called “state ecological expertise” in order to adjust the total allowable catch (TAC) of aquatic biological resources for 2014. Order RPN 4 August 2014 features adjustments to the quotas for shrimp and sea cucumbers but buried in the TAC is the formal approval of a quota of up to 10 killer whales that can be taken by permit in the Okhotsk Sea in 2014.
In practice, potential killer whale captors have perhaps 6-8 weeks at most to apply for a permit against this quota and to mount a capture operation. We can only hope that it’s already getting too late in the season. But it may well be that the captors are already on the sea as I write this, searching for the prime young orca females and males to remove from their families and sell into a life in captivity.
For sure, we won’t stand idly by, watching as the Russian orca families are systematically pulled apart or even eliminated with an unknown number of casualties — hinted at and sometime uncovered but never officially reported.
Of course, to end the captures requires the removal of the concrete tanks that exhibit whales and dolphins around the world. The “Blackfish-effect” is thought to have contributed to declining numbers for SeaWorld in the US but it hasn’t touched Russia, China and Japan, where some 120 aquariums now exhibit cetaceans, far more than North America and Europe combined.
What next for Russian orcas? What are we going to do?
• WDC’s 15-year project to study orcas in the Russian Far East has managed to obtain key baseline data and has successfully kept the captures away from southeast Kamchatka, one of the most important killer whale areas in the world. This year the Far East Russia Orca Project (FEROP) has expanded its research into the Okhotsk Sea to start gaining a picture of killer whale status there. FEROP’s presence during the field season is important. You can follow this work on the russianorca facebook page.
• Scientists from FEROP have helped organize a three-hour roundtable to discuss the issue of cetacean captures in Russian waters. It will happen with a big Russian scientific audience just before the opening of the plenary schedule on the first day of the 8th Marine Mammals of Holarctic International Conference, 22nd September, in St. Petersburg, Russia. For more information, see: http://www.mmc2014spb.com/en/pgs/program/program.php#anchor
• There will also be two free showings of “Blackfish” during the conference and discussions around the showing. Check here for more information.
Representatives of the captivity and capture industry in Russia are reportedly planning to attend the roundtable. Who knows, they may even go to see what all the fuss is about in “Blackfish.” The discussions in the corridors promise heat and we can only hope, as well, a glimmer of light.

Mailbag: Should Jauan Jennings be suspended after Tennessee WR's incident vs. Vanderbilt?
Blake Toppmeyer | Knoxville News Sentinel
Tennessee gets to take a breather after a 28-10 victory over Vanderbilt in the regular-season finale on Saturday before gearing up for a bowl game.
That gives us a chance to answer some mail.
Questions were submitted via email or my free text group and have been lightly edited for brevity and clarity.
Did Jauan Jennings stomp on the face of the Vanderbilt player? If so, should he be suspended? – John H.
Jennings probably should have been flagged for a late hit on that play. His tackle occurred as Vanderbilt punt returner Justice Shelton-Mosley was heading out of bounds. Then Jennings undeniably stepped on Shelton-Mosley's face after his helmet came off.
Was it intentional? Hard to say. Probably only Jennings knows the answer to that.
That last hit... BROKE MY TV pic.twitter.com/jk3S8vDIAo
— Chilly (@chilly2pointOh) December 1, 2019
I don't expect coach Jeremy Pruitt to issue any discipline. Pruitt has not shown himself to be a disciplinarian, and I can't see him sitting someone as valuable as Jennings for any portion of the bowl game.
Can you give me your take on the QB play this season? Do you think Jarrett Guarantano is a good quarterback, or should Tennessee fans hope for Harrison Bailey or Brian Mauer next year? – Chad S.
Guarantano’s performance Saturday shouldn't be an indictment on his ability as a quarterback. The weather was lousy, and he's still wearing protective gear on his left hand that needed surgery just more than a month ago.
Frankly, it was a poor game plan by offensive coordinator Jim Chaney to have Guarantano throw passes on seven of the first nine plays.
Guarantano’s performance helped Tennessee qualify for a bowl game, as his play is undoubtedly a reason the Vols have won six of their last seven. Will he be an elite quarterback as a senior? Probably not. There's value, however, to seeing what he could do having the same offensive coordinator in back-to-back seasons for the first time in his career.
Will Guarantano be the best option compared to Maurer and Bailey? There's a good chance.
The best-case scenario for Tennessee might be for Guarantano to lead the Vols back to a bowl next season while Bailey, the four-star commitment in Tennessee’s 2020 recruiting class, plays some and serves as an understudy. Then Bailey could take the reins in 2021.
Maurer feels like a safety valve if Guarantano or Bailey don’t pan out in 2020.
Are there any juniors who may declare for the NFL? I've only heard that Trey Smith may consider. – Mark A.
I’d be surprised if any Tennessee juniors beyond Smith declare for the NFL draft. He’s the only one who would seem to have high-round value.
As for Smith, he declined to go into his plans Saturday night.
Trey Smith on Vanderbilt rivalry: 'It's our state'
“I’m not really focused on that,” he said. “I’m just focused on the next bowl game, to make sure our team is successful.”
I think Smith has played his final game at Neyland Stadium. He proved this season that he remains an elite talent. His health situation — he missed the final five games of last season with blood clots in his lungs — will be a red flag for some teams, but that situation isn’t likely to change in a year’s time.
Smith only needs one team to take a chance on him. There’s not much reason to delay his entry to the NFL, especially given his health background.
Since Mississippi State, no two wins have really looked or felt the same. So, is it more a good thing that we are finding ways to win, or a concern that we don't really have an identity and can still struggle with sub-par competition? – Seth W.
The Vols are finding a variety of ways to win, but I'd argue the one constant is solid defense. Tennessee has won six of its last seven. In those six wins, no opponent scored more than 21 points.
And those six opponents averaged 4.53 yards per play against Tennessee. That's a solid mark for a defense. Consider, within the SEC, only Georgia is surrendering fewer yards per play for its season average (4.12).
Granted, none of those six opponents Tennessee beat during this turnaround was especially talented on offense, but at least the defense is steadily shutting down mediocre or poor offenses.
On Vandy's first series, a Tennessee defender had his helmet pulled off. The Tennessee defender received a penalty for having his helmet off on the field of play. Why were we penalized on that play? – Bob C.
The penalty went to Tennessee defensive lineman Matthew Butler. He continued to play after his helmet came off. That, by rule, is a personal foul.
If a player's helmet comes off during play, he cannot continue to participate in the play to prevent injury. It might seem unfair to the player, but the rule is designed for player safety. The NCAA doesn't want a player continuing to play without a helmet, make a tackle and get his head crushed.
It's a tough penalty to swallow, but that's the rule, and players have to be educated on it and know what to do in that situation.

CWHL Weekend Wrap
17 January 2019 . 5 min read . by Kirsten Whelan
This week Les Canadiennes de Montréal took three of four possible points in a split with the Shenzhen KRS Vanke Rays, while the Toronto Furies once again upset the Calgary Inferno on the road to split their series.
Around the League
Jetta Rackleff was named Goalie of the Week for January 5-6.
Toronto Furies head coach Courtney Kessel and Calgary Inferno centre Brianna Decker remained absent this weekend as Kessel helped coach Team Canada to gold over Decker and Team USA at the U18 Women's World Championship in Obihiro, Japan.
CWHL alumnae Cheryl Pounder and Charline Labonté, two-time Olympian speedskater Anastasia Buscis, and comedian Gerry Dee were added as coaches for the All-Star Game, which takes place on January 20th at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.
The league also announced that Leafs alum Doug Gilmour, who allegedly sexually assaulted a teenaged babysitter in the late 1980s, will drop the puck for the ceremonial faceoff.
The Calgary Inferno's game-worn Start the Spark jerseys are currently up for auction, with a portion of proceeds supporting the Sheldon Kennedy Child Advocacy Centre.
Shenzhen KRS Vanke Rays vs. Les Canadiennes de Montréal
Noora Räty made 25 saves and stopped three of four shoot-out attempts as Shenzhen defeated Les Canadiennes 4-3 on Saturday.
Sarah Lefort opened the scoring for Montreal just 1:30 in after rushing up the left wing, on a shot that appeared to deflect in off a Shenzhen defender.
Emma Woods tied it up on the power play with just over a minute left in the second, beating Emerance Maschmeyer high glove-side from the top of the circle.
"During the intermission we talked about a few moments that we were second on the puck, especially in our D-zone when we were supposed to get out and then we lost the puck at the blue line," explained associate head coach Danièle Sauvageau. "Those are the little things that could change the result of a game. So it was really a matter of making sure that those little details were made, and to bring our speed to the next level -- not only our skating, but moving the puck."
It seemed like a goalie showcase until the final six minutes of regulation, when both teams alternated goals with two apiece.
Katia Clément-Heydra first put Montreal ahead with a touch on a centering pass from Hilary Knight at 14:45.
"Honestly, all I was doing was driving the net -- I don't even know how it went in, I was just going," she said. "I feel like that's one thing that we had trouble doing all game is getting net drives, so I told myself, I don't care, sacrifice, go to the net, it doesn't matter."
Madison Woo evened it up just 31 seconds after that, on an equally bizarre bounce on the other side. Poulin responded with a beautiful shot at 17:07, but Alex Carpenter forced overtime with 34 seconds left in the period.
After five minutes of 4-on-4 solved nothing, the teams went to a shoot-out, after generating just three shots between them in OT.
Knight shot first for Montreal, flipping the puck over Räty's right pad. After the next four shooters missed, Carpenter deked Maschmeyer and scored on the open net to force extra shooters and Hanna Bunton scored the winner for Shenzhen.
All-star Rays forward Rachel Llanes, who had been making a gradual return from injury over the past few games, left the match early, and teammate Zhao Qinan suffered a lower-body injury in the match. Neither player was in the lineup on Sunday.
Shenzhen was 1-for-3 on the power play and perfect on three kills.
"They're a lot more aggressive on the penalty kill than what we're used to, but I think their biggest strength is in goal," said Clément-Heydra. "Räty gets in your head -- you think you have space to shoot, then she moves in and makes herself bigger."
Maschmeyer stopped 19 of 22 shots in open play.
Geneviève Lacasse earned a 19-save shut-out on Sunday in her Montreal debut, as Les Canadiennes topped Shenzhen, 4-0.
"She's a huge part of this team, she's a great leader, she's someone that's vocal, that's confident, that brings a lot of energy around her," said associate head coach Caroline Ouellette of the netminder, who sat out the first half of the season with injury. "She's worked really hard to get back in the game, and to see her do very well and get a shut-out, I think it's going to be huge for her confidence."
The Rays thought they'd scored off a shot by Yu Baiwei about four minutes into the game, but the net was off its moorings (in what was a theme of the afternoon) and after much insistence from Lacasse, the goal was eventually called back. Poulin then collected a rebound and scored right-side just before the halfway point to put Les Canadiennes ahead after one.
Knight doubled the lead with a hard shot from the right circle at 7:57 for the only goal of the second. Ann-Sophie Bettez was assessed a minor penalty and 10-minute misconduct at 14:52 after she and a Rays player exchanged punches in a game that became increasingly physical.
Jill Saulnier scored from the slot at 6:55 of the third, and Olivia Atkinson rounded out the contest at 9:35 when she stole the puck from Räty behind the goal and wrapped it into the wide-open net.
The end of the third was particularly chippy, with a number of questionable hits and curious non-calls.
"We had such a good game, and the last thing we need is to have some tough call or something where we lose somebody for another game," explained defender Erin Ambrose of the importance of keeping emotions in check. "It's tough sometimes to just kind of swallow your pride and take the punch or whatever it may be, but sometimes you've got to do that."
Montreal was 0-for-2 on the power play and perfect through three kills.
Räty allowed four goals on 37 shots.
Toronto Furies vs. Calgary Inferno
Brianne Jenner had two assists as the Inferno defeated Toronto 4-1 in Saturday's Start the Spark game. It also marked Furies defender Jordan Hampton's return following a broken wrist sustained in the second week of the season.
Jenner opened the scoring 13:58 into the match. Despite spending six minutes on the power play, the Furies managed only four shots during the first period.
Kelty Apperson doubled the advantage midway through the second, and Kacey Bellamy added a power-play marker with 50 seconds remaining in the frame, in which Calgary outshot its guests 22-6.
The Inferno thought they'd added another early in the third, but it was called off for a high stick. Katelyn Gosling then made it 4-0 at 15:35, before Renata Fast got Toronto on the board with under three minutes left in the game.
The Inferno were 1-for-2 with the extra skater and killed off all four penalties taken.
Annie Bélanger made 19 saves on 20 shots, while Shea Tiley stopped an impressive 50 of 54 in a losing effort.
Elaine Chuli posted a 29-save shut-out on Sunday as the Furies upset Calgary for the second time this season, 3-0. The Inferno dressed Nicole Paniccia as back-up in the absence of Bélanger and Alex Rigsby.
After a goalless first period, Fast opened the mark just past the halfway point of the second.
Shannon Stewart made it 2-0 just 14 seconds into the third, set up by Natalie Spooner. Spooner followed with a goal of her own at 16:08 to round out the scoring.
Both teams were perfect on the penalty kill, with Toronto neutralizing three and Calgary two.
Lindsey Post stopped 23 of 26 shots in her first start of the season.

‘Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets’ Review: Heavy on the Frommage
Fred Topel July 10, 2017 0 likes
Valerian and the City of 1000 Planets has a classy way of taking the audience from the real outer space accomplishments of NASA in the ‘70s to a science fiction extrapolation involving aliens. The Alpha Intergalactic Space Station becomes too unwieldy for Earth’s gravity so goes off into space with the inhabitants of 1000 planets. Ohhhh, so that’s why it’s called… it’s a city of… I get it.
Flash forward to around 2550 and Major Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and Sergeant Laureline (Cara Delevigne) are on a mission. Wait, first, there’s a colony of beautiful glittery aliens on a beach. The females of this species are definitely Luc Besson’s type, tall and lythe, only now with CGI thinned waists. They are forced to evacuate by a fiery invasion, and Valerian senses something from his ship.
The audience truly gets to discover new worlds as they accompany Valerian and Laureline on their mission. It crafts a fun and suspenseful chase between two dimensions. There are adorable creatures who poop diamonds and pearls. The CGI is beautiful, creating unique images, not the same old Star Wars planets and Lord of the Rings monsters.
Writer/director Besson imbues Valerian with his French romantic ideal. The film wears its heart on its sleeve, for better and worse. For better, it is very anti-tyranny. For worse, they really lay on Valerian’s womanizing thick. His obsessive pursuit of Laureline makes him a stalker. Unfortunately, Valerian’s journey doesn’t even teach him to respect her. It only teaches him to win her. I thought they would take turns saving each other, but maybe some of her saves ended up on the cutting room floor.The interdimensional sequence has clear rules for how it works and what makes Valerian vulnerable. A later scene where Valerian busts through the walls of a ship and ends up in a space chase is less clear how it all works. The most fun sequences are diversions from the main plot, with the weirdest physics. Some of the aliens are hard to understand even though they speak English.
I kept hoping there would be some cameo from a Fifth Element character but a bar named after that film’s lead character is the closest we get.
I would only advise seeing Valerian in 2D anyway, but if you are a 3D fan, Valerian’s was broken when it screened. There is still time for them to fix all the ghosting images in outer space, but if they don’t then you’re in for a headache.
If Valerian and the City of 1000 Planets does well and they make more adventures of Valerian and Laureline, I’d see them. I’d be curious to see what else Besson can put in this world. I hope Laureline gets a promotion though and I hope some of the physics and mythology are a little more concrete in the next outing.

Plastic debris. Time to turn the tide ...
The past 3 weeks we’ve heard a lot about ‘MeiPlasticvrij’. Maybe you’re even participating? A campaign set up for the second time to make everyone aware of the impact of our use of plastic on the environment. Plastic debris is currently receiving a lot of attention, but how big is the problem, what is the situation in Flanders? And more importantly, what can we do about it?
With MeiPlasticvrij in full swing and World Ocean Day in sight, we would like to draw attention to the state and consequences of plastic debris in our rivers and the North Sea. Discover how VLIZ joins forces with the Flemish universities and VITO to propose innovative solutions and measures to tackle plastic litter.
Cover LIFE magazine "Throwaway Living" 1955 - © Peter Stackpole
Fortunately, ocean science, sustainable development and marine litter are high on the political agenda today. One of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 14, Life Below Water) specifically addresses the use and conservation of oceans, seas and marine resources with one of the objectives being to prevent and significantly reduce marine pollution of all kinds by 2025, including marine debris.
Plastic debris in Flanders
Marine litter is found in all seas and oceans, even in the most remote areas far away from human contact. In Flanders, too, it is necessary to study and tackle the presence, inflow and impact of (marine) litter and microplastics in our Flemish waters and coastal areas. The policy brief of the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ) already bundles the scientific knowledge about debris in Flanders, and also maps out the research landscape and needs (Devriese and Janssen, 2019).
Studies show us that an average of 126 items of litter per km² are found on the seabed of the Belgian part of the North Sea. In the coastal zone, more than 90% of the debris on the seabed consists of plastic. Also on the beach the vast majority (80%) of the litter consists of plastic. On the Flemish beaches, an average of 137 items of litter per 100 meter tide line are noted (Belgische Staat, 2018). But also microscopically small plastic pieces, the microplastics, are abundantly present in our waters. For example, up to 50,000 microplastics per kg of sediment were found in the sediment of the Scheldt River (Van Cauwenberghe, 2015).
Plastic debris in the sea can, e.g. as a result of suffocation or entanglement, lead to the death of numerous marine animals such as whales, seabirds and seals. Microplastics are ingested by a very wide range of organisms and can even end up on our plates via (sea)food. Currently there are no safety levels for microplastics in food, nor enough scientific data available to estimate the risks to public health.
Turn the tide on plastics!
Overall, plastic production continues to increase every year. Since 2011, plastic production has risen with approximately 11.5 million tonnes a year (global production: 348 million tonnes in 2017) (Devriese and Janssen, 2019). In Europe, annual production has been stable since 2011 at 60 million tonnes, with an increase to 64.4 million tonnes in 2017 (PlasticsEurope, 2018). The occurrence of plastic in the environment is therefore a symptom of our excessive and incorrect use of this very persistent material.
As part of the new European Plastic Strategy, the European Commission recently proposed new rules that should greatly reduce the use of disposable plastic. The Public Waste Agency of Flanders (OVAM) has also made a Flemish action plan with measures to tackle marine litter (OVAM, 2017). At the federal level, the Minister for the North Sea also launched an action plan to combat marine litter, a step towards a total approach (De Backer, 2017).
FlanderPlastic debriss is strongly committed to Blue Innovation, including through the Blue Cluster, the sixth spearhead cluster in Flanders. One of the domains of the Blue Cluster covers the theme of ‘ocean pollution and waste solutions’, where the Blue Cluster focuses on the detection, monitoring and removal of debris from the marine environment.
Remote sensing as objective monitoring system
The Policy Brief on marine litter in Flanders (Devriese en Janssen, 2019) shows us there is a great demand for user-friendly and automatic monitoring programmes in both marine environment and the Belgian rivers in order to retrieve the sources, the presence, the behaviour and the transportation routes of marine litter.
In order to clearly map the current situation, we need innovative and cost-efficient technologies, including automatic monitoring systems (e.g. multi-platform sensors) to monitor plastic pollution in aquatic environments. To this end, researchers from Flemish universities, VLIZ and VITO are currently joining forces with the industry to tackle this knowledge gap and propose innovative solutions. Earth observation data and remote sensing are perfectly used as a non-disruptive detection method for floating plastic litter, both in rivers, harbours and coastal areas.
The use of automatic monitoring systems will contribute to the current knowledge gap about the plastic accumulation areas and the plastic flux, crucial to take efficient measures against plastic litter in the future.

Exploring Food
February 20, 2017 vprofyFood, Gardening Leave a comment
We continue cleaning, organizing. Today Diane gave me a small booklet from a dinner experience at the Blue Hill restaurant at Stone Barns, in Tarrytown, NY. It was titled, “Field and Pasture: four season journal.” It showed what was harvested monthly and then served on the restaurant’s menu.
In February, there were javelin parsnips and ice spinach from the field; Berkshire pigs and hen eggs from the pasture; tapping maple trees in the forest; Belgium endive, cardoons, and guanciale from the cellar. In July, garlic, plum tomatoes, fennel, zucchini blossoms, Swiss chard, artichokes, summer squash, carrots, beets, broccoli, head lettuce, etc. Free range chickens, Dorset lambs, pigs and broad breasted white turkeys, eggs. Lots more from the greenhouse and cellar. Each month was different.
Several times on trips to the Hudson Valley, we stopped in Tarrytown to explore The Center for Food and Agriculture at Stone Barns. It was founded in the 1990s by the Rockefeller family, conservationists and organic farmers. Dan Barber, chef of Blue Hill restaurant in Greenwich Village was hired to open a restaurant in an old barn. In addition to the main restaurant, there is a small “take out” and a few picnic tables. We’ve stopped a number of times. On one stop we had an excellent butternut squash soup, a baloney sandwich (was fantastic, recalled my fried baloney sandwiches when boating with Dr. Schultz on the Delaware River) and tuna on focaccia. Raisin cake for dessert. We usually walked around the grounds, planted field, barns and pens with animals being raised for the table. We also visited the “foodie” gift shop.
In 2004, we had dinner at the original Blue Hill. We were in the Village, Washington Square Hotel, for a Cabin Dogs (my son-in-laws band) show at the Lion’s Den, a small dive on Sullivan. I think Diane recognized the Blue Hill as a destination restaurant. A week before we made reservations — Rob and Jenny, sister Cissi and husband Louis, Diane and I. I had oysters — wasn’t paying attention to terroir then. Complimentary shots of a califlower soup were excellent. Diane and I had Artic Char (like salmon) in a beet, pine nut, citrus sauce. Chocolate flan to finish. Although we had a good experience, we only rated the Artic Char as OK.
In 2013 we finally made lunch reservations at Blue Hill, Stone Barns — the brochure. Farmer’s feast was either twelve courses for $208; 8 courses for $148; or 5 courses for $108. I’m usually wary of chef’s choice, price fixe meals but usually willing to try new food experiences. We chose the five course which turned out to be plenty. The room layout was stunning. We sat next to each other facing a center table decorated with flowers and food. Penguin dressed waiters hovered nearby — surpringly quite unobtrusive and very helpful. It was fall or early winter, so there were root vegetables. Our waiter customized courses based on out interests and tastes.
We started with about seven “amuse-bouche” — small tastes, chosen by the chef. The variety was amazing — blood sausage and beet wafers, pickled asparagus with egg yokes, yogurt granola with grated beet sugar, a tree of salami and chips made from kale, potatoes and of course beets, terrine and capers, beet sushi and beet burgers. Wow. We had Jerusalem artichokes and hazelnuts, large scallops (fantastic), beef with carrots and Brussels sprouts (too sweet), soft egg in something. Then desserts and a sampling of chocolates. We washed everything down with a sparkling wine — vintage not recorded. It was expensive, but a fantastic meal, and we learned how to taste and appreciate small bites. We would return.
Last week I finished reading, “The Third Plate: field notes on the future of food,” by Dan Barber, Blue Hill’s Chef. A great read. Barber embarks on a search — how do we change our food culture to reflect sustainable, good food, and food for all. Chefs, including himself, buy the best and then take credit for serving the best. Barber says that’s not enough. In order to feed all — high yield, mono-culture is not the answer. He asks “how do we apply a ‘total farm concept,’ mixed, non chemical planting, seed and plants grown for health and taste, integration of the entire ecology of a farm.” This is the “third plate, ” going beyond the current farm to table movement.
Barber introduces us to a number of people who seem to be contributing to his concept. In Spain, he meets Eduardo Sousa who is raising geese, allowed them to roam free on the same land as the prized Iberian pigs, grazing on acorns. No force feeding for these geese; but delicious foie gras. He also learns of and visits a fish farm in Spain where the fish aren’t being fed but are eating naturally in the wild from a series of canals. The Sea Bass was fantastic but Dan was also amazed at the taste of the Grey Mullet — not a trendy fish. He introduces us to Klaas Martens, a grain farmer in New York who explains how good soil contributes to quality and taste. Anson Mills in South Carolina that is milling historic corn and other grains organically and commercially.
Food books frequently inspire me to grow, cook, or just eat something. Decades ago I bought “Beautiful Swimmers,” the story of the Chesapeake Bay’s blue crab, by William Warner. I had never had a soft shell crab and couldn’t wait to try one. I remember asking one of the Giordano boys — South Street Italian market family, when I could get a soft shell? They were out of season. It was months later in Cape May, we were visiting with Jerry and Kate Alonzo. Jerry and I took a walk and bought soft shell sandwiches from a food truck. Hooked ever since.
Since reading “The Third Plate,” I bought some Iberia jamon (ham from the Spanish acorn fed pigs). Despana Restaurant and Tapas Cafe in Princeton sells it. Not cheap. This week we bought Sea Bass at Hellers seafood market in Warminister — I fully realize it’s not from that sustainable Spanish fish farm but it was oh, so good. We also got some crab meat and small imported lobsters.
My interest in food is interdisciplinary. I like gardening, cooking, eating, reading, writing and photographing food. Diane and I can spend a day driving from farm to farm from market to market in Bucks and New Jersey. We like to cook but also enjoying eating out. We have our favorite restaurants (Hamilton’s Grill in Lambertville, The Pineville Tavern) but we also have been trying out new places on weekly lunch explores.
I’m hoping this year my garden can reflect a greater understanding of the total ecology promoted by Barber. Not exactly “a third plate” but at least a greater awareness. We recently put in raised beds. My garden neighbor-partner had the mushroom soil we purchased tested. It was too rich in nutrients. She trucked in some leaf compost to cut it. More awareness. I’ve been reading “Four Season Harvest” by Eliot Coleman, the organic gardener guru we met in Maine in the 1970s. My food explore continues.
Greetings from Asbury Park
February 9, 2017 vprofymusic history, Springsteen Leave a comment
I just finished reading “Born to Run,” Bruce Springsteen’s recently published autobiography. I have fuzzy recollections of my first encounter with Springsteen, probably in the early 70s. I liked what I heard — a bit of Dylan, a singer songwriter; some of the Stones stage craft. And of course I liked the local New Jersey shore connection, “Postcards from Asbury Park.”
“Born to Run” is an easy read. Short focused chapters keep the story moving. I was intrigued with the similarities and differences with my own life. Springsteen was born in 1949 (he’s two years younger than me). He was raised a Catholic and went to a Catholic elementary school. Irish-Italian middle class background. Grew up in a small Jersey town, Freehold NJ; my small town was Bristol, PA. Bruce writes about the youth cultural divide — the rah, rahs (preppies) and the greasers. I remember a similar devide preppies (black socks, Catholic school) and publics (white socks). There were fights behind the Levittown Shopping Center between the two groups. Bruce claims he somehow bridged the divide.
Then there was the music. 45 rpm records. Early rock and roll. Elvis and the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. With friends I danced in a small courtyard off Mill Street in Bristol. Jerry Kline where are you? There were elementary school dances when I was in 6th to 8th grade. Bruce was rocking in Freehold. Bruce saw Chubby Checker (“The Twist”) at The Steel Pier in Atlantic City; I saw Jerry Lee Lewis at the Grand Theatre in Bristol. But there was a big difference. Bruce got a guitar and started playing; he formed a HS band, “The Castiles.” Music wasn’t central to my life.
In high school, Bruce was breaking into the music scene — where ever he and his band the Castiles could play. Early on he knew South Jersey wasn’t enough. NYC and Greenwich Village beckoned across the river. He spent his high school graduation day wandering around the village. He would play at the Cafe Wha. But home was Jersey, by the late 60s, the Upstage Club on Cookman Street in Asbury Park was the place.
Springsteen and I were both affected by the Kennedy assassination, Vietnam War, and cultural upheaval happening in the country. High School graduation, however, sent us in very different directions. I went off to Boston College an English major, Vietnam protester, leather bookbinder, married in the summer between Sophomore and Junior year. A few weekends I hitchhiker to NYC to hang out in the village clubs. Was Springsteen there on those weekends?
A car for me was strictly transportation, my father frequently lent me his maroon Tempest. In his twenties, Bruce didn’t even have a driver’s license, let alone a car. Traveling was a bicycle or hitchhiking. His friends, however, sometimes had cars that cruised the streets as in “American Graffiti.” I don’t think I ever cruised. Bruce and I both received induction papers. And both of us faced down the draft. Bruce failed the physical exam in Newark; I fought three inductions and always succeeded in getting a deferment.
From the beginning, Bruce was totally dedicated to a career in music. Despite the call of youth culture, he didn’t drink alcohol or do any other drugs. Girls and sex also took a backseat. Bruce writes, “I was a faux hippie (free love was all right), but the counterculture stood by definition in opposition to the conservative blue-collar experience I’d had. I felt caught between two camps and I didn’t really fit in either, or maybe I just fit in both.” Although I drank in college, I wanted drinking to be social and I was cautious about drug use. Similar to Bruce free love wasn’t part of my experience.
By 1970 Bruce had a new band — Steel Mill. They headed to California. They played a few gigs, including Fillmore West. They recorded a demo but the big deal never happened. Around the same time, Diane and I were doing Peace Corps training in Bisbee, AZ. When the program folded (Gaddafi Revolution), we spent months on the road with PC friends. Bruce and friends returned to the safety of home gigs; Diane and I returned to Bucks County and jobs as teachers.
By the early 1970s, I was on a career track as a teacher. I wouldn’t deviate. Forty years as an administrator and teacher in private education. Earned a masters degree in educational media and a doctorate in educational leadership. Bruce meanwhile went on to form the E Street Band and become a rock an roll legend. Greetings from Asbury Park (1973); Born to Run (1975); Darkness on the Edge of Town (1977); The River (1980); Born in the USA (1984); and Tunnel of Love (1987). He was a star, tours, international following, money (although he had agent issues). Despite amazing success, he always returned home to South Jersey. A hometown boy.
For me there are many interesting stories and new biographical details in “Born to Run.” Bruce had major issues with his father and mother; he needed counseling and was medicated for years. He wanted to maintain control of his bands; Springsteen’s name is upfront. He always wanted to be true to his working class roots. He was dedicated to writing. A bit of a workaholic.
In the tradition of Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, and Bob Dylan, Bruce was drawn to speaking out, writing and singing about social issues — Amnesty International, music for the Jonathan Demme AIDS movie “Philadelphia,” labor union concerts, Vietnam veterans, “The Ghost of Tom Joad,” 9-11 concert. Political involvement: I enjoyed rocking at Springsteen’s concert at the Obama inaguaration.
According to “Born to Run” as he got older, Springsteen reflected on his commitment to stability and family. His first marriage to Julianne Phillips ended but his second marriage to Patti Sciafle has endured. He has three children and I believe is a “family man.”
After reading “Born to Run” I’ve committed to carefully re-listening to all of Springsteen. I also thought a “Boss” tour of South Jersey would be fun. Diane and I have visited Asbury Park several times and Springsteen was always on our mind. A quick look on the Internet and I found a tour based on “Born to Run.”

Janissary Laddle-Bearer. Ottoman Empire 1800.
LADLE-BEARER TO THE JANISSARIES.
Laddle-Bearer. Cook of the Janissary corps.
Historical Ottoman Empire officials and ethnic groups.
This singular character is a person of greater consequence than his office, if we are to judge from European manners, would lead us to suspect. The sense of honour is not, as with us, attached to their colours; they might lose them without much danger of disgrace; but the loss of their ladle and kettle is almost irreparable, and they esteem it as their greatest calamity. In order to avoid this, every odah or regiment, of which there are an hundred an one, has two of each. When both are taken by an enemy, they consider the regiment as destroyed, and a new one is formed, to whom new ladles and kettles are given.
These ladles and kettles are never removed without receiving some military honors. When the Ladle-Bearer goes round, according to Mons. Dalvimart, to serve out the soup, or messes, he is always escorted by a guard. The Janissaries themselves, also, have a wooden spoon, with which they eat their pilaf, and which they wear in their caps instead of feathers; and they as much look upon these as a part of the military dress, as an European would a sword.
Associated to:
The costume of Turkey. Illustrated by a series of engravings; with descriptions in english. By Octavian Dalvimart. Printed by Howlett and Brimmer. Published in London, 1802.

Jordan Peterson – On Social Justice And Truth
October 17, 2017 October 24, 2017 wangtheoryLeave a comment
Good afternoon my dear readers,
I want to share with you all an amazing podcast interview between Joe Rogan and Jordan Peterson, a Canadian clinical psychologist, cultural critic, and professor of psychology at the University of Toronto. Jordan Peterson made the news this year for his “controversial” critiques against political correctness, postmodernism feminism, category bashing (e.g. white privilege) and outrage over cultural appropriation.
First, this is his message to millennials who are looking to change the world: “Change yourself first”
This 3 hour discussion was one of the most elucidating talks I’ve heard in my short life across a span of topics ranging from post-modernism, classic male dominance hierarchies, political correctness, good & evil, the authoritarian left and social justice warriors, kekistan, operating in a world of chaos, finding the meaning in life for men/women, universal basic income, Donald Trump’s lies vs. Hillary Clinton’s lies, PTSD, Freud and Jung and realizing our capacity for evil.
The following passage(s) resonated most strongly with me, and I’m paraphrasing the conversation in the most coherent way possible. Before I start, I note that I am a cis-gender male who embraces climbing the dominance hierarchy, and all the shit that comes with it. I reject political and social orthodoxy and absolutism from both the left and right when it conflicts with science, intellectualism, and the hard-fought principles of humanism, individualism, and the enlightenment.
Unlike chimps, human females are choosy about their mating partners. Alpha chimps pass on their genes because they dominate and push off lesser chimps. In the 6 million years since humans split from chimps genetically, we have created our own male dominance hierarchy (DH) mediated by FEMALES but chosen by males who push those with power, influence or leadership to the top, who then pass on their genes with the females who select them.
As humans, we are optimized to live in tribes of up to 100 to 250 people (Dunbar’s number). That number is big enough where climbing to the top of the hierarchy feels important, but small enough where it is achievable, compared to the entire world/civilization.
On average, we have twice as many female ancestors than we do males ones because females on average reproduce once, and males on average reproduce twice or not at all. Men are well adapted to both accepting the presence of the hierarchy and learning how to climb it so that he can leave a genetic contribution. Over time, our observation of the evolution of the DH spawns hero mythologies- the hero is the man who kills the snake, who slays the dragon and gets the gold to bring back to the village. He is also mostly likely to find and claim the virgin in this mythology. The classic male dominance hierarchy is a mechanism that selects heroes and breeds them, and since we tell stories about heroes, the classic dominance hierarchy is as much as cultural and societal narrative as it is a form of genetic and sexual selection. The societal narrative for the description of people as admirable or not admirable evolves into categories from which we derive good and evil – we can then imagine the perfect person. The meta-admirable is a hero, a religious figure, a messiah.
Men compete because women like winners, and hetero males are shamed for that in a post modern society. Post modernists reject the classic male structures because they realize that they can’t compete in this hierarchy. They compete as allies, which is why “male feminists” (a crude catch-all that doesn’t encompass the complexity of modern male/female relationship dynamics) are still seen as “creepy/sneaky”, particularly when they are discriminatory towards classic male behavior.

One third of Kenyan girls subjected to sexual violence – survey
Category : Research
NAIROBI (TrustLaw) – Nearly one in three Kenyan girls experience sexual violence before the age of 18, according to a report launched by the Kenyan government and the United Nations on Wednesday. Three quarters of Kenyan children experience physical, sexual or emotional violence, according to the findings of the first nationwide household survey of more than 3,000 young people aged 13 to 24. “The survey results depict a sobering picture of pervasive and insidious violence that afflicts the entire country,” Naomi Shaban, minister of gender, children and social development, said at the launch of the Violence Against Children Survey. Sexual violence – defined as sexual touching or attempted sex against the child’s will or coerced or forced sex – was experienced by 32 percent of Kenyan girls and 18 percent of boys before the age of 18. This figure is much higher than that of the government’s 2008/9 Kenya Demographic and Health Survey which found that one in five women and girls are victims of sexual violence. Rape is rarely reported in Kenya due to stigma and a lack of faith in the police and the criminal justice system, although the country has strong legislation to protect children from sexual assault. The survey found that the most common perpetrators were boyfriends or girlfriends, followed by neighbours and family members. One in three girls who were raped became pregnant as a result. Only three percent of sexually abused girls received professional help. There was a clear correlation between experience of sexual violence and engagement in risky sexual behaviour. Girls who were victims of unwanted touching or rape were four times as likely as other girls to have multiple sexual partners. Physical violence – defined as punching, kicking, whipping or being threatened with a weapon – was most widely experienced. Almost six out of 10 children had been physically abused by an authority figure, most commonly teachers. More than half the respondents had experienced physical violence at the hands of relatives.
MAJORITY CONDONE VIOLENCE
Most disturbing among the findings was that the majority of children accepted violence in the home as normal, particularly if they themselves had experienced it. “Much of violence against children… remains hidden and at times is socially approved or acceptable. That is very sad,” said Franklin Esipila, permanent secretary in the ministry of gender, children and social development. Among girls aged 18 to 24, 49 percent condoned violence by a husband towards his wife. This increased to 56 percent among girls who had experienced childhood violence. Unsurprisingly, the figures for boys were even worse. There was 62 percent approval of domestic violence among boys aged 18 to 24 who had not been abused, rising to 65 percent among those who had experienced violence themselves. “These attitudes must change in order to help mitigate the occurrence of domestic violence, both against women and against children,” the report said. “This remains the single greatest area for policy reform at the national level.” Other social attitudes and practices that justify violence against children identified by the survey include the use of violence as a form of discipline, child labour, female genital mutilation, forced marriage, prejudice against disabled children, family breakdown, homophobia and the myth that sex with virgins can cure HIV/AIDS.
VIOLENCE PERPETUATES POVERTY
A 2006 U.N. report found that 14 percent of girls and seven percent of boys around the world experience sexual violence. “Violence breeds violence,” it said. “In later life, child victims of violence are more likely to be victims or perpetrators themselves.” It also found that violence perpetuates poverty, illiteracy and early death. “The physical, emotional and psychological scars of violence rob children of their chance to fulfil their potential,” the report said. “Ending violence will increase opportunities for development and growth.” The Kenyan government said it plans to set up child protection centres, staffed by social welfare officers, across the country to help abused children. The survey found that just one in four girls and one in eight boys knew where to get help after they were sexually abused. Childline Kenya, a free national helpline for children, receives 40,000 calls a month.

“I wish to thank you very much for the letter from Jacopo Ferretti to Gabriele Laureani you have donated to the Vatican Library. Your precious gift is very important for us, since Laureani had a significative role in the life of the Library during the period 1831-49 (firstly as Secondo Custode, from 1831-38; then as Primo Custode, from 1838-49). Therefore, this letter constitutes an important document for the history of the Library that surely will be highly appreciated by our scholars and readers. Thank you with all my gratitude.”
RECOGNIZING NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLYMAN SAM HOYT
In recognition of Sam Hoyt’s two-decades of dedicated public service as New York State Assemblyman and Majority Whip, Weekes Autographs recently presented him with a Mickey Mantle autograph display. The custom-designed piece features a signed Mantle “action shot” that has been professionally matted with a Tops #10 trading card and New York Yankees emblem. The ensemble is enhanced by a hand-applied pinstripe jersey-motif matboard, museum glass and a complementary blue wood frame.

“Sam’s passion for public service has been evident throughout his career,” observes Donnell G. Mueller, Business Development Director for Weekes Autographs. “He has been untiring in his support of many important causes that have positively impacted the lives of Western New Yorkers.”
Adds Ron Weekes, “There’s no doubt that Sam’s presence in the political arena will be missed, while his leadership and vision are certain to continue in his new post with the Empire Economic Development Corporation.” Recently, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo appointed Hoyt to serve as regional senior vice president of the Empire Economic Development Corporation.
Hoyt began his career on the staff of the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan and with the Buffalo Bisons Baseball as marketing and promotions manager. “Whenever we’d run into Sam I could count on him to ask if I had any signed baseball cards,” says Ron with a smile. “I gave up reminding him that we seldom deal in sports memorabilia but never forgot his comment. What could make a better gift than a genuine autograph of ‘the Mick’?” adds Ron.
WEEKES AUTOGRAPHS was privileged to be commissioned by Western New York Public Broadcasting to create a custom autograph display of Gilbert & Sullivan. The presentation was made to comedian-political satirist Mark Russell on his 20th anniversary with Public Television. (Left to Right: Mark Russell; Michael Collins, WNED-TV president – retired).

Flying With Your Animal? Delta Tightens the Leash on Traveling With Support or Service Animals
January 19, 2018 By Will Run For Miles 4 Comments
A little over five years ago, I experienced (for the first time) the curious phenomenon of a passenger traveling on a flight with a dog. The dog, an “emotional support” service animal, sat under my chair for the flight home from Miami (see, “Emotional Support” Animals on Planes).
In researching the topic, I learned that support animals weren’t limited to just dogs and cats, but a whole array of animals from pot-bellied pigs to turkeys and snakes.
Over the years, there has been a proliferation of emotional, support and service dogs registered and traveling right in the cabin with their human owners. For obvious reasons, the topic has always been controversial.
Today, Delta Hub, announced new requirements on this topic, entitled: Delta introduces enhanced requirements for customers traveling with service or support animals effective March 1.
Here is the full text of the publication:
Delta Air Lines is taking steps to further protect its customers, employees and service and support animals by implementing advance documentation requirements for those animals. This comes as a result of a lack of regulation that has led to serious safety risks involving untrained animals in flight. The new requirements support Delta’s top priority of ensuring safety for its customers, employees and trained service and support animals, while supporting the rights of customers with legitimate needs, such as disabled veterans, to travel with trained animals.
Delta carries approximately 700 service or support animals daily — nearly 250,000 annually. Putting this into perspective, Delta carries more than 180 million passengers annually. Customers have attempted to fly with comfort turkeys, gliding possums known as sugar gliders, snakes, spiders and more. Ignoring the true intent of existing rules governing the transport of service and support animals can be a disservice to customers who have real and documented needs. Delta has seen an 84 percent increase in reported animal incidents since 2016, including urination/defecation, biting and even a widely reported attack by a 70-pound dog. In 2017, Delta employees reported increased acts of aggression (barking, growling, lunging and biting) from service and support animals, behavior not typically seen in these animals when properly trained and working.
New Procedures & Updated Requirements
In compliance with the Air Carrier Access Act, Delta provides in-cabin travel for service and support animals without charge. The guidelines, effective March 1, require that all customers traveling with a service or support animal show proof of health or vaccinations 48 hours in advance. In addition to the current requirement of a letter prepared and signed by a doctor or licensed mental health professional, those with psychiatric service animals and emotional support animals will also need to provide a signed document confirming that their animal can behave to prevent untrained, sometimes aggressive household pets from traveling without a kennel in the cabin. These measures are intended to help ensure that those customers traveling with a trained service or support animal will no longer be at risk of untrained pets attacking their working animal, as has previously been reported.
“The rise in serious incidents involving animals in flight leads us to believe that the lack of regulation in both health and training screening for these animals is creating unsafe conditions across U.S. air travel,” said John Laughter, Delta’s Senior Vice President — Corporate Safety, Security and Compliance. “As a leader in safety, we worked with our Advisory Board on Disability to find a solution that supports those customers with a legitimate need for these animals, while prioritizing a safe and consistent travel experience.”
In developing the updated requirements, Delta solicited the feedback and input of its 15-member Advisory Board on Disability, a group of disability advocates established more than a decade ago and composed of diverse Delta frequent flyers with a range of disabilities.
Air Carrier Access Act
As the Title 14 Code of Federal Aviation Regulations § 382.117 dictates, “you must permit the service animal to accompany the passenger with a disability at any seat in which the passenger sits, unless the animal obstructs an aisle or other area that must remain unobstructed to facilitate an emergency evacuation.” However, untrained animals that have been misidentified as service and support animals are regularly reported to occupy seats, stretch across the aisles and move throughout the cabin during flight, often without restriction. That same regulation also requires that airlines determine whether any factors preclude travel in the cabin by a service animal. Such factors include: “whether the animal would pose a direct threat to the health or safety of others” and “whether it would cause a significant disruption of cabin service.”
“We are committed to consistently improving our policies, prioritizing the safety of all Delta customers and employees,” said Laughter. “We have received extensive customer feedback through calls, emails and social posts — many from among those within the disability community — urging Delta to take action. This new policy is our first step in better protecting those who fly with Delta with a more thoughtful screening process.”
What Customers with Service and Support Animals Need To Know
Any customer traveling with a service or support animal on/after March 1 will need to meet the new requirements as outlined below:
Traveling with a trained service animal
Customers traveling with a trained service animal will be required to submit a signed Veterinary Health Form and/or an immunization record (current within one year of the travel date) for their animal to Delta’s Service Animal Support Desk via Delta.com at least 48 hours in advance of travel.
Traveling with an emotional support animal or psychiatric service animal
Customers traveling with an emotional support animal or psychiatric service animal will be required to submit a signed Veterinary Health Form and/or an immunization record (current within one year of the travel date), an Emotional Support/Psychiatric Service Animal Request form which requires a letter prepared and signed by a doctor or licensed mental health professional, and a signed Confirmation of Animal Training form to Delta’s Service Animal Support Desk via Delta.com at least 48 hours in advance of travel.
Delta is creating a Service Animal Support Desk for customers traveling with service and support animals to improve their travel experience and ensure they receive excellent customer service. This desk will verify that the above documentation is received and confirm the customer’s reservation to travel with the animal, prior to arrival at the airport. If a form is not completed, a representative will communicate with the customer via e-mail to request the missing or incomplete items.
Delta does not accept exotic or unusual service or support animals. Additional information on types of accepted animals and other questions related to traveling with service and support animals is available here.
I assume other airlines will similarly amend their requirements.
What’s your opinion on the topic?

DAH says
It’s about time. I hope all airlines follow and then the states with the new laws regarding fake service dogs will start enforcing the law. It has gotten out of control. We live in a ick society. Everyone has some kind of problem that requires them to take their dog with them.
Tim Pressman says
Ba-bye
Wv399 says
FINALLY!!! The fakers make it difficult for those with legitimate needs to bring their trained service animals.
BTW emotional support animals ≠ service animals.
JRG says
Great to hear; keep tightening it up. As an asthmatic, it really bothers me we put animals before people in contained areas (planes) like that. Keep the pets home or put them down below….

US strikes 5 facilities in Iraq and Syria linked to Iranian-backed militia
Posted 8:46 pm, December 29, 2019, by CNN Wire
US forces conducted airstrikes in Iraq and Syria against five facilities the Pentagon says are tied to an Iranian-backed militia blamed for a series of attacks on joint US-Iraq military facilities housing American forces.
The strikes occurred at about 11 a.m. ET on Sunday, a source familiar with the matter told CNN. They stand as the first significant military response in retaliation for attacks by the Shia militia group, known as Kataib Hezbollah, that have injured numerous American military personnel, according to US officials.
Pentagon spokesman Jonathan Hoffman described the strikes against the group as “precision defensive strikes” that “will degrade” the group’s ability to conduct future attacks against coalition forces.
Defense Secretary Mark Esper briefed President Donald Trump Saturday before carrying them out with the President’s approval, according to a US official familiar with the strikes.
At least 25 people were killed in the US airstrikes, according to a statement Sunday from the Popular Mobilization Units, a Tehran-backed Shiite militia also known as the Hashd al-Shaabi.
Kataib Hezbollah is a group under the Popular Mobilization Units. Jewad Kadum, a PMU official, said in a statement earlier Sunday that the rescue operations were still ongoing as well as the evacuation of the wounded, recovery of the dead bodies and the extinguishing of the fire caused by the airstrikes.
US officials travel to discuss strikes with Trump
Esper, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Joint Chiefs Chairman Mark Milley, traveled Sunday to Mar-a-Lago to discuss the strikes with Trump.
Speaking from the President’s Florida resort, Pompeo said the US took “decisive action” and said threats against American forces had been ongoing for “weeks and weeks.”
“We will not stand for the Islamic Republican of Iran to take actions that put American men and women in jeopardy,” Pompeo said.
Esper said Sunday’s meeting with the President included discussing “other options available” without providing further detail. He added that the US “would take additional actions as necessary to ensure that we act in our own self-defense and we deter further bad behavior from militia groups or from Iran.”
US officials said the five targets included three Kataib Hezbollah locations in Iraq and two in Syria. Those locations included weapon storage facilities and command and control locations that the group uses “to plan and execute attacks on OIR (Operation Inherent Resolve) coalition forces,” according to the Pentagon.
The strikes all came from the air using F-15 Strike Eagle fighter planes, the US official familiar with the strikes said. Secondary explosions were observed after some of the strikes, indicating the sights may have housed ammunition.
While there were multiple strikes, the sites being hit were relatively small, the official told CNN. Whether the US decides to strike further will depend on the activities of the militia, they said, and whether it conducts additional attacks against US interests.
American officials have blamed the group for attacks like one on Friday on a base near Kirkuk, Iraq, that killed a US civilian contractor and injured four other US service members.
Hoffman asserted again in his statement that the group has links to Iranian forces.
“KH has a strong linkage with Iran’s Quds Force and has repeatedly received lethal aid and other support from Iran that it has used to attack OIR coalition forces,” he said.
‘A treacherous stab in the back’
Abdelkarim Khalaf, spokesman of the commander of Iraq’s Armed Forces, said during a live interview on state television, Al-Iraqiya TV, that Esper informed Iraqi Prime Minister Adil Abdul Mahdi half an hour before the US airstrikes.
“The Iraqi Prime Minister expressed his strong objection to this unilateral decision and his concern that it would lead to further escalation and demanded that he (Esper) stop it (airstrikes) immediately,” Khalaf said.
He added that “these strikes represent a treacherous stab in the back.”
Abdul Mahdi said the Baghdad government rejects “unilateral action” by coalition forces inside his country, according to a statement carried on state television.
“We have already confirmed our rejection of any unilateral action by coalition forces or any other forces inside Iraq. We consider it a violation of Iraq’s sovereignty and a dangerous escalation that threatens the security of Iraq and the region,” the Iraqi prime minister said.
Escalating tensions between the US and Iran
The US had been pushed to the brink of retaliation against Iran or its proxies before Sunday’s strikes, specifically after attacks this summer on oil tankers in the Persian Gulf and oil facilities in Saudi Arabia and Iran’s downing of a US drone in June.
US officials, including Pompeo, repeatedly stressed that any threat to the freedom of navigation in the Gulf and the oil trade would be considered unacceptable, but the Trump administration took no action.
Over the past two months, however, US officials have grown increasingly concerned as the threat to US and coalition forces became more immediate. In the last several weeks, a series of rocket attacks have targeted military installations in Iraq where US and coalition personnel are stationed. US officials linked them to Kataib Hezbollah, citing similarities in the attacks.
And behind the militant group, US officials pointed to Iran.
Tensions between the US and Iran have increased over 2019 as Washington tightened the economic squeeze on Tehran through its “maximum pressure” campaign and Iran responded with what it calls for “maximum resistance.”
Tehran’s resistance has taken the form of gradually reduced compliance to the international nuclear deal that the US left in May 2018 and a campaign of regional provocation that began escalating in May.
That month, four oil tankers in the Persian Gulf were damaged by mines, drones launched by Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen hit two segments along a major Saudi east-west oil pipeline and a rocket landed near the US embassy in Iraq.
On the last day of May, a suicide attack in Kabul, Afghanistan, wounded four US servicemen. While the Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack, Washington blamed Iran.
In June, two more tankers were attacked in the Gulf of Oman and Iran downed a US drone, bringing Trump to the very verge of ordering a strike on Iran before he called it off at the last minute. In August, up to 10 Houthi drones targeted a Saudi oil facility and in September, cruise missiles caused significant damage to another Saudi oil facility. The US, Saudi Arabia and European nations pointed the finger at Iran.

Filming Cops, Independent Shooting Investigations Affirmed by Senate Panel
April 8, 2015 - 12:00am
The Post & Courier
By: Cynthia Roldan
Attempting to restore trust in law enforcement after the fatal shooting of Walter Scott by a North Charleston police officer, a state Senate panel on Thursday affirmed the right to record police activity in public and called for independent investigations of police shootings.
“What we’re trying to do is create more credibility in the system, transparency in the system, for the people out there in the community so that they can end up having confidence in our law enforcement agencies,” said Sen. Gerald Malloy, D-Hartsville, a co-sponsor of the recording bill.
Malloy’s bill bars police from arresting people recording or taking pictures of on-duty officers in public on obstruction of justice charges, as long as they aren’t physically interfering with an investigation and have the right to be where they are.
Susan Dunn, of the American Civil Liberties Union, asked lawmakers to be clear that they were not creating a new right because it’s already legal to record law enforcement officers on cellphones and other devices.
The Senate Judiciary Subcommittee approved the bill 4-1, with Sen. Katrina Shealy, R-Lexington, dissenting because of concerns about a person filming cops infringing on other citizens’ privacy.
A second bill, which the subcommittee passed unanimously, requires police departments to have an outside agency investigate officer-involved deaths. Sen. Marlon Kimpson, D-Charleston, said the bill was needed because some law enforcement agencies investigate themselves.
A third bill, also advanced unanimously, mandates that the State Law Enforcement Division investigate officer-involved shootings that result in bodily injury or death. SLED Chief Mark Keel asked lawmakers to amend the bill as it makes its way through committees to ensure that the agency would only investigate shootings in which there are serious injuries or death. Asking SLED to investigate currently is optional, and at least one major law enforcement agency in the state — the Richland County Sheriff’s Office — does its own investigations.
“Here you have three bills in the aftermath of the Walter Scott shooting to bring greater transparency to law enforcement behavior,” Kimpson said. “What we’re doing here is significant.”
Kimpson and Malloy said Thursday’s votes are part of an ongoing effort to improve law enforcement in South Carolina that includes the Senate’s approval Wednesday of a bill requiring all officers in the state to wear body cameras.
Bills requiring officers to wear body cameras had been introduced before Scott was killed April 4 in a confrontation with Patrolman 1st Class Michael Slager, but had languished in committee. Body cameras became a rallying cry after a passerby’s cellphone video showed Slager, who claimed he was defending himself, firing eight shots at Scott’s back as he tried to flee. Slager was fired and charged with murder after the video became public.
Under the bill, video from body cameras would not be considered a public record and be subject to open records laws unless a complaint is filed accusing an officer of a crime or misconduct. Crime victims and attorneys representing suspects or litigants would have access.
The restriction, which lawmakers said was intended to safeguard privacy, defeats the purpose of having the cameras, said Bill Rogers, executive director of the South Carolina Press Association.
“Why have tapes ... if the police control who sees them?” Rogers said. “I think it gives police far too much power to withhold these videotapes.”

Our antibodies don't just affect our babies, they affect us too. The same antibodies that destroy baby's blood cells because they've got the antigen, will also destroy donor blood cells. If you get injured, end up unconscious, or have some other emergency situation and need blood, it's important for the doctors to know about your antibodies so they can find compatible blood. Once you have antibodies, you will have them for life. Your body will always remember how to make them quickly if it ever finds incompatible blood. Even if your antibodies are too low to titer or undetectable, the medical personnel need to know about them. If they don't a hemolytic transfusion reaction occurs (more info about that below). About 20 people die in the USA each year because of them. 5 minutes to fill out a free medical alert card, or order a bracelet can literally save your life.
You can get medical alert bracelets from Etsy or a number of online retailers.
If you need a medical alert card, please fill out the Google form and a paper card will be printed and mailed to you.

Transfusion Reactions
Once a woman has antibodies, she is at high risk for a transfusion reaction. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3076326/ For this reason, she must carry a medical alert card at all times and inform all doctors of her antibody status.
“"Acute hemolytic transfusion reactions may be either immune-mediated or nonimmune-mediated. Immune-mediated hemolytic transfusion reactions caused by immunoglobulin M (IgM) anti-A, anti-B, or anti-A,B typically result in severe, potentially fatal complement-mediated intravascular hemolysis. Immune-mediated hemolytic reactions caused by IgG, Rh, Kell, Duffy, or other non-ABO antibodies typically result in extravascular sequestration, shortened survival of transfused red cells, and relatively mild clinical reactions. Acute hemolytic transfusion reactions due to immune hemolysis may occur in patients who have no antibodies detectable by routine laboratory procedures" http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/206885-overview#showall
Easier to understand transfusion reaction info: https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/001303.htm
Hemolytic Transfusion Reactions - In FY2011, the number of reported fatal hemolytic transfusion reactions increased from 7 (18%) in FY2010 to 9 (30%) of confirmed transfusion related fatalities. There were increases in both ABO hemolytic reactions - from 2 (5%) in FY2010, to 3 (10%) in FY2011, and non-ABO hemolytic reactions – from 5 (13%) in FY2010, to 6 (20%) in FY2011 (Figure 1 and Table 1). Despite these recently observed increases, a downward trend in the total number of reported fatalities due to hemolytic transfusion reactions has continued since FY2001 (Figure 3)
In FY2011, there were six reports of non-ABO fatal hemolytic transfusion reactions: Two of the six cases were attributed to errors in the lab:
In one case, an anti-K was correctly identified; however, an error in pulling segments for K typing and compatibility testing resulted in the transfusion of an incompatible, K positive unit.
In a second case, a positive antibody screen misread as negative resulted in transfusion of an incompatible Fya positive unit. The immediate spin compatibility test did not detect the incompatibility.
The remaining four cases illustrate difficult compatibility issues without clear answers, including three patients with complex RBC antibody presentations which worsened following transfusion, and one case of delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction/hyperhemolysis syndrome in a sickle cell patient.

Hi there, I’m Remy! I recently found my passion for motorbikes when I was travelling across Latin America. I met a biker on the road and travelled two-up for a few months. I instantly fell in love with the biking community. Everyone I met along the way had such a passion for what was in between their legs, whether it be small, big, long, short, hairy…. Sorry, where was I?
I wanted more! I so badly wanted to be a part of this amazing community I was surrounded by. I wanted my own bike! So, I walked into a shop in the morning and walked out in the afternoon having bought my very own Yamaha YB125. 15,000+km and a whole continent later I find myself here, a fully-fledged adventure biker writing to you about different journeys that have inspired, educated and influenced me to see more of this awe inspiring world that’s on offer.

National Ag Landscapes Forum considers conservation vs budget cuts
By Jon H. Harsch
WASHINGTON, April 7 – Even while the battle over federal budget cuts continued Thursday, USDA Deputy Secretary Kathleen Merrigan said that although funding will be a challenge, USDA remains committed to “voluntary, incentive-based conservation.”
Then Merrigan posed a series of questions to conservation stakeholders at the National Agricultural Landscapes Forum: “What approaches are needed to protect the soil and water resource base most effectively? Which of these approaches . . . will make the most efficient use of tax payer dollars?”
Complimenting the forum for assembling a distinguished group of experts, Merrigan assured the group that USDA is determined to support conservation by reviewing federal regulations and bureaucratic processes “to reduce burdens” on the producers who are on the front line for cleaning up the nation's air, soil and water. Then she posed more questions: “How can we balance voluntary incentives with regulations to achieve the results society wants? Which new tools are needed to ensure that agriculture and our natural resources remain productive in the face of climate change, water shortages, and other forces that we may not even perceive at this point?”
Dave White, chief of USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service added his own questions, clearly aware of budget pressures and the already started 2012 Farm Bill discussions: “Do we need four easement programs? Do we need all the various cost-share programs? Is there an opportunity to gain efficiencies through program consolidation?”
Forum participants were loaded with answers - and House and Senate agriculture committee staff members were listening. Wyoming rancher Patrick O'Toole, president of the Family Farm Alliance which represents irrigators in seventeen Western states, said USDA needs to be much more flexible with its conservation programs. He said it makes no sense for an area to return money to USDA for one program which is undersubscribed – because it isn't suitable for that area – while at the same time not having enough money for another program in the area which is oversubscribed.
Former California Secretary of Agriculture A.G. Kawamura, a third generation California fruit and vegetable grower and shipper, agreed. He said USDA programs should allow local areas the ability to shift dollars between programs to align with local needs.
Iowa producer Varel Bailey who has headed a long list of farm organizations including the National Corn Growers Association, said one option USDA should consider is initiating a biding process for oversubscribed practices such as terracing. He said this approach would allow a marketplace to develop, with the result that USDA could “get more conservation done with same number of dollars." Chief White pointed out that bidding is ruled out under current law – something which could change in the 2012 Farm Bill.
National Research Council (NRC) Scholar Jeffrey Jacobs explained that even if climate change is removed as an issue, agriculture faces immense challenges related to water. He illustrated his point with this quote from Dr. William Patzert of NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab: “The continued growth in the population of the West will exacerbate the problem. The problem in the West is not climate change, it’s too many people using too much water . . . If nothing happens, we’re in trouble. If something [such as climate change] happens, it’s worse.”

After noting that demand already exceeds supply for the Colorado River basin, Jacobs said that even water-rich areas like the Missouri River basin must start making tough choices. He cited a 2010 NRC report which concluded that “In many ways, the Missouri River is no different from other large U.S. river systems, as difficult choices are inevitable and priorities among competing uses must be established. Conflict along the river today generally revolves around trade- offs . . . Future trade-offs among Missouri River users will be inevitable . . . Effective resolution of trade-offs will require explicit acknowledgement of their existence . . . as well as limits of Missouri River goods and services.”
One point of agreement was that USDA should develop a more coordinated information system to compile data from all government agencies and make it easily and quickly available to producers – and that to support this improved information system, agricultural research funding needs to be increased, not cut. Calling for “an information response approach,” Varel Bailey said that “if we had a way to document how many pounds of nitrogen are going down the DesMoines and the Raccoon rivers and could report that back to each individual farmer, he would quickly convert that into dollars. That feedback response is probably more powerful than a regulatory or incentive-based approach.”
The forum was hosted by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, American Farmland Trust and Farm Foundation NFP. Sponsors included Altria Group, CropLife America, DuPont, the National Association of Conservation Districts and The Nature Conservancy.

The carbonate system is an important reaction system in natural waters because it plays the role of a buffer, regulating the pH of the water. We present a global existence result for a system of partial differential equations that can be used to model the combined dynamics of diffusion, advection, and the reaction kinetics of the carbonate system.

Amnesty bigger than UK political parties
Posted 31 Jul 2008, 7:15pm By Patrick Corrigan
The Daily Telegraph today reports (somewhat gleefully) on the declining membership of the Labour Party and the UK's political parties genrally.
Labour Party member numbers are down from a 1997 high of 405,000 to only 177,000 today. Largely the Iraq War effect, I would suggest.
The Conservatives don't publish proper figures (mmm…) but two years ago estimated (how generous is that estimate?!), 290,000 members of their notoriously loose structures, after receiving a boost with the new Cameron leadership. But,Stephen Tall on Liberal Conspiracy, reports that "Tory membership is reportedly lower today than it was when he was first elected leader."
The LibDems are on the slide too, down from a high of 100,000 in 1994 to a reported 64,000 today.
It is interesting that, as the member numbers of the main UK political parties decline, Amnesty's membership has been on a steady upward trend for as long as I remember. According to our website, current membership/supporter base (people who actually pay annual subs) in the UK sits at 260,000: probably making us bigger than any political party.
Of course, size isn't everything(!) but it is clear that people are attracted by constant principles put into effective action, which is what I (and, presumably, many others) believe Amnesty offers. If you're not already a member, please think about joining our growing movement. You can join here.

Why Samsung and Huawei (should) remain faithful to Android
4 min read 4 min 38 Shares 38 29 comments 29
Authored by: Scott Adam Gordon Jul 6, 2016
Rumor has it that Samsung and Huawei are developing their own smartphone operating systems to compete with Android. It's an interesting idea, but one I believe is highly unlikely. Why? Allow me to explain.
Net Market Share recorded in June 2016 that Android accounted for over two thirds (65.58 percent) of the "Mobile / Tablet Operating System Market Share". Gartner reported that in the first quarter of 2016, Android accounted for 84 percent of "Worldwide Smartphone Sales to End Users by operating system."
Statista claims that "Android accounted for around 85 percent of all smartphone sales to end users worldwide in the beginning of 2016." The remaining percentages are accounted for mainly by iOS, Windows Phone, BlackBerry, while other operating systems play only very minor roles.
In short, Android is the most widely used mobile operating in the world, and by a substantial margin.
Huawei will stay with EMUI. Version 5.0 is already in development. / © AndroidPIT
So, if Samsung or Huawei were to invent their own operating systems, they could potentially steal a slice of that big Android pie, but how much would be theoretically possible? Diving a little deeper into those figures shows that it's actually Samsung and Huawei who have the greatest potential.
The same Gartner survey above shows that Samsung sold 23.2 percent of all smartphones in Q1 2016. Statista suggests that this figure could be as high as 24.5 percent. Huawei is found to have sold around 8.2 to 8.3 percent, depending on the survey.
Despite their popularity, would Samsung or Huawei dare to turn their backs on Android?
Samsung is represented in most markets around the world but it still makes use of Google services like Maps, Search, and especially the Play Store.
Samsung customers have become accustomed to these Google products and rely on being able to use them with a Galaxy device. The number of Play Store apps is a major argument for why the Korean manufacturer should remain faithful to Android, with between two and 2.25 million to be found there as of July 2016. This is something Samsung would find incredibly hard to compete with.
Google's Play Store is the linchpin of Android. / © ANDROIDPIT
Huawei's outlook is quite different. In China, Huawei has already opened up its own App Store. This is editorially maintained and, similar to the App Store from Apple, subject to strict quality controls. In an interview with the Huawei vice president of Mobile Business Changzhu Li, we learned that Huawei sees Android's biggest weakness to lie in its apps and not in the operating system itself.
Thus, it would be more likely that we will see the Huawei App Store in the West before we see a Huawei smartphone with an operating system other than Android.
Why Huawei recently hired an OS expert, who had previously worked for Nokia, has no doubt played a part in the current rumors. Oft-mentioned concerns, like Google wanting to make the Android ecosystem less open, further compound this. But, ultimately, operating system experts are likely to improve Huawei's Android-based EMUI software first and foremost. It's generally agreed that there is plenty work to be done here, despite my own counter-arguments.
Android is only really good on smartphones
There are areas where Android is currently in use but for which it is not optimally suited. These include smart TVs and wearables. Android TV is failing because of the poor implementation of Play Store apps which don't scale well for TV.
Android Wear fails because it's almost identical to the smartphone Android software, which is cumbersome for smartwatches and unnecessarily demanding in terms of resources and energy.
Tizen is the biggest advantage of the Samsung Gear S2. / © AndroidPIT
In the field of wearables and home entertainment, Samsung can now score points. Samsung has already developed a mature and slim operating system for smartwatches with Tizen, which in many ways outshines the Google alternative.
But a switch to Tizen on Samsung smartphones could still prove an unnecessary risk. Smartwatches are currently a relatively niche product; Android is anything but that.
The Android system gives manufacturers just enough room to make their own adjustments and improvements. Thus, Huawei, Samsung, HTC, Sony and all others can differentiate themselves and create their own selling points. At the same time, they continuously help to improve the core Android software and build a stronger system than Google alone could ever do.
For manufacturers, Android is a compromise, but an effective one, offering diversity, freedom and compatibility. Samsung and Huawei may be mighty, but I doubt they're ready to stand on their own two feet; especially not in the interests of their consumers.

Your last paragraph you state "For manufacturers, Android is a compromise..." Maybe you said that because that sort of statement seems fitting in the type of article you wrote or maybe you believe that. Personally I'm not certain how using the best OS in the world is any type of compromise. Also I don't believe that any of their reasons that you stated were very valid.
There really is only one reason why Samsung and Huawei want to use their own OS, money. They're crunching numbers thinking that between the 2 of them they can combine forces garner 40% of the play market with room to grow and make a killing. Ofcourse I'm speculating but don't we all? I'm a loyal Samsung customer but it frightens me to think of them having 100% control of my phones operating system. Mainly because of the crazy sh*t they do already. Any entity that insists on placing content on one's phone that is not essential to its functioning and makes it so one can not remove it is arrogant to say the least. I have T-mobile, love the company but they do that as well. One example, I have never once used my phone to get a weather report nor a forecast, yet since my first G1 that service has been running in the background on every phone I've owned....

Tizen has come in all of the major products of Samsung. You're late with your predictions.
My first Samsung product was an Galaxy S4. Ive had the S5, S6 Edge and S7 Edge. None of them have had Tizen, all Android. So maybe you're posting from the future but in July 0f 2016 in the U.S. with T-mobile(its what I know) his prediction has not come to pass yet.

Samsung shouldn't try any nonsense, or I get a full money back for my Note 4.
Francesco V. Jul 10, 2016 Link to comment
Another, third option that I see for Android to stay free and continue to exist would be to hide itself. Let me explain.
What Google (Alphabet) is very good at is to provide smart, excellent APIs. They might be at the heart of any mobile or immobile OS, as for the IoT.
In essence, new blends of OSs can be created freely by manufacturers, but still using Android/Google APIs for all the hard work. This might come in hand for freeing the manufacturers from the costs of developing their own OSs entirely, might be great for compatibility with whatever app developers want to create across an OS-multiverse, and might free Android from the impasse of choosing by which dead it wants to die.
I'm not sure what you're implying but Android isn't going anywhere and it will continue to be free. Speaking of surviving and all that is crazy. It's the most robust dominant mobile platform on the planet.
Too big to fail? Well, I guess history and statistics show the opposite ;-)

They should use Sailfish OS, Meego was pretty decent and successful even when looking at the ban of sales in mayor markets in Europe and in the US. They UI concept is much better than android. I think it would be better working on one Linux based OS than splitting it in two. Also they Jolla guys from Nokia have more experience than Samsung.
That's a matter of opinion. I haven't personally used sailfish but I don't like its major selling points. Plus I don't think it will ever get a strong foothold based on reports I've read.
CJ Brown Jul 8, 2016 Link to comment
I understand why Samsung and Huawei would <3 to develop their own OS - BUT - unless they want to join Microsoft Mobile (as another "point and laugh at that epic fail")? They are better off continuing to partner with Android / Google ...
If these Manufacturers actually paid attention to Consumers (same goes for the Carriers), they would lose the bloatware (or give Consumers the option to remove it without us having to visit a smartphone repair shop and have it done) ...
C'mon Samsung, c'mon Huawei - Innovation - this should be what you strive for !

ljhaye Jul 12, 2016 Link to comment
I think creating your OS does show the ability to innovate.
Ain't that the truth. I think part of the problem is that the hardware is more than staying ahead of the demands of the software and so its kind of carte blanc for developers. They're thinking, "Look at all the speed and memory. Its more than anyone could have imagined. What can we cram in here?"
The problem with that mentality should be fairly obvious but with everyone going hog wild with EVERYTHING, next thing you know resources are depleted.

The problem is, the only thing that Samsung phones ever get slated for in reviews is their own software additions on top of Android! The closer they get to stock Android, the better the reviews get! I think they would be dumb to ditch Android, Windows Phone has great features but is slowly dying off due to a lack of key apps, Blackberry are dead in the water almost, there is probably not room for another OS!

Mr. Gordon doesn't understand that Tizen phones are already for sale, has been on sale for 2 years. This is not the case of if, but when, with Tizen phones. Samsung is already going Tizen native for all its product lineup including TVs, fridges, smartwatches, home security, routers, and its phones are the last hold outs that will eventually see a conversion to Tizen around 2020, because this is when IoT takes off big and Tizen is IoT native, at least Samsung kind of IoT standard.

Don't forget Samsungs VR ambitions are also independent of Google's and they have no interest in being victim of another computing duopoly.

I think a big plus for Android is that it's open source. If Google ever decides to take this advantage from the smartphone OEMs, then they have their own alternatives. Moreover, Android has a seasoned veteran in the form of the Play Store which has been refined and improved over the years. The sheer amount of variety you get on the Play Store is not available on any other platform. So, Android will not go down without without a fight.

I have an iPad full size and an iPad mini. And a Samsung phone. Android is by far the superior operating system.

When a beautiful young woman is sent a letter inviting her to a sinister assignation, she immediately seeks the advice of the consulting detective Sherlock Holmes.

A Study in Scarlet
Narrated by: Derek Jacobi
Originally named A Tangled Skein, this is the first Sherlock Holmes story. The real strength and the unique quality of the novel lies in the introduction of Holmes and Watson to each other - and those dark early scenes when a corpse is discovered in a derelict house in southeast London. The ultimate crusader against crime and criminals, Holmes' genius is revealed here for the very first time.
The result of all our study in scarlet ...

Sherlock Holmes: The Valley of Fear
Narrated by: Christopher Lee
A rich American is murdered in mysterious circumstances in a manor house in Sussex, England. Sherlock Holmes, accompanied by Dr. Watson, is invited to help the investigation. Though Holmes solves the mystery at hand, his attention and indeed the mystery itself shifts to the coalfields of North America. The heart of the matter is corruption - the date is 1875. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle outs his finger with uncanny accuracy on civil corruption which so blighted North America in that century.
The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes are overshadowed by the event with which they close - the meeting of the great detective and Moriarty, the Napoleon of Crime. When "The Final Problem" was first published, the struggle between Holmes and his arch nemesis, seemingly to the death, left many readers desolate at the loss of Holmes, but it also led to his immortality as a literary figure.
Good narrator, Incorrect product description
"The Return of Sherlock Holmes" is a collection of 13 Sherlock Holmes stories, originally published in 1903-1904, by Arthur Conan Doyle. This was the first Holmes collection since 1893, when Holmes had "died" in "The Final Problem". Having published "The Hound of the Baskervilles" in 1901-1902 (although setting it before Holmes' death) Doyle came under intense pressure to revive his famous character. The first story is set in 1894 and has Holmes returning in London and explaining the period from 1891-94, a period called "The Great Hiatus" by Sherlockian enthusiasts.

The country doctor had come to 221B Baker Street, the famous lodgings of Sherlock Holmes, with an eerie tale---the legend of the Hound of the Baskervilles, the devil-beast that haunted the lonely moors around the Baskervilles' ancestral home. The tale warned the descendants of that ancient family never to venture out on the moor "in those dark hours when the powers of evil are exalted." But one of the most recent Baskervilles, Sir Charles, was now dead, and the footprints of a giant hound had been found near his body. Would the new heir of the Baskervilles meet the same dreadful fate? Sherlock Holmes and his faithful friend Dr. Watson are faced with their most terrifying case in this wonderful classic of masterful detection and bone-chilling suspense. This audiobook includes the bonus Sherlock Holmes story "The Adventure of the Dancing Men."

Tad Davis
A worthy competitor to David Timson
David Timson is a tough act to follow as a narrator of Sherlock Holmes stories, but Simon Prebble gives him a run for his money here. It's wonderful that Tantor released all four Holmes novels at the same time. Prebble is another in my growing list of favorite narrators. The voices of the different characters are less distinctive at times than in Timson's reading, but Prebble is equally effective at conveying the excitement of the story, the sense of dread, and the sharp humor of Holmes himself.
"The Hound of the Baskervilles" is the quintessential Holmes story, even though he himself is absent from a significant portion of the action. If you never read another Holmes story, read this one. Among other things, it's the perfect antidote for people who grew up thinking of Watson as the likeable duffer from the old Basil Rathbone movies. He shows himself here as a courageous and loyal friend, and while his detecting is less brilliant than Holmes's, it's equally tenacious.
I'm looking forward to the other entries in the series.
Hobart, IN, United States
The basis of many movies
Here we have Sherlock Holmes sending Watson to solve or at least attempt to solve a case. Largely we see Watson solving the case with Holmes coming in at the end to get the credit and solve the case. This story line has been used by writers across the board. Not going to spoil it however it also has a lot of great lessons like about who to trust and not trust. All people appearing to be evil aren't and all angles aren't as well.
Splendid...
What did you love best about The Hound of the Baskervilles?
The portrayal of Sherlock Holmes was fascinating
What about Simon Prebble’s performance did you like?
He really knows how to adapt his style to the moment in the story.
Halifax, NS, Canada
You can't argue with The Hound of the Baskervilles - it's a perfect, elegant mystery with lots of fun and no dull patches. Simon Prebble is a very listenable narrator. Unlike the other reviewers I thought he distinguished Holmes and Watson perfectly. Thumbs up!
David Shear
Deserves to be the classic that it is.
This was such a fun book to listen to. It is a very accessible story, easy to follow, and all the characters are fun to get to know. It's a great history lesson--so many of our current "mystery" shows and stories are based on this story. That makes it even more fun--you can recognize the formula and the pattern of the story in everything from Law & Order episodes to "mystery" movies and books. These Doyle stories are SUCH a treasure.
A reader
A bit monotonous
The story is as good as any SH story. But I found the narrator a bit monotonous, and not very good at modulating his voice to distinguish the various characters. Holmes and especially Watson sound much too old. His attempt at giving a female character a lisp was utterly unconvincing and down right annoying.
A bow (wow wow) to the ever great Sir Arthur
What a great pleasure it is to pick up a read, even one you are already so familiar with, and be totally immersed in atmosphere; a pace that proceeds with urgency; and writing that takes you to foggy old England and holds you there so convincingly that real-life seems like a fuzzy distant intrusion while you are reading. There is here that kind of precise balance of the writerly elements -- you can count on them with Sir Arthur. So easily, the reader can slip into the inner circle of Watson and Holmes.
When I was a child, I saw the film version starring Peter Cushing as Sherlock Holmes and Christopher Lee as Sir Henry Baskerville; a Hollywood version for sure, Doyle may have rolled once or twice in his grave, but it inspired me to read the book. Minus the grandiosity of Hollywood, the book lacked nothing, and still contains magic that even Hollywood can't trump. On a calm enough evening, sitting with your family, The Hound of the Baskervilles might even be able to compete with Grand Theft Auto, Call of Duty, Warlord, Doodle Jump. What's that old saying..."They just don't make 'em like this anymore"...they do, but not very often. Great production, and worth re-visiting.
Gladstone New Jersey
Good Story But Truly Great Narration
This is the first Sherlock Holmes audio book that I have ever listened to. While I was very familiar with the story (saw the movie which starrted Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce), I believe that what made this recording superb was Simon Prebble's narration. He did a phenomonal (and probably the best) job that I have ever heard changing his voice to match the characters in the book (best exemplified by his voice characterizations of Holmes vs. Dr. Watson (with different English Accents and tones) as well as inserting an American/Canadian dialectic tone for Sir. Henry Baskerville). I recommend this as a great listen and I am actually thinking of purchasing the entire Holmes collection that is available on Audible (and is also narrated by Prebble)
Bartonville, TX
October is a great month for a little classic horror from a master. Holmes and Watson are off to the moors for a little sleuthing around. In Holmes style he waits until the end to unfold all of the facts to catch the killer. My son informed me that the narrator Simon Prebble also was the voice of "Courage the Cowardly Dog", on Nickelodeon.
Carrie Safrit
Great story if u like a murder mystery I loved it so very very much

The Greatest Detective Story Ever Written
Simon Preble does a fantastic job bringing Doyle's classic text to life with rich and memorable voice acting and characterisation. A must for any audio book collector.

Top Gear visits the farm for next Stig
A Stig who's identity isn't a secret? Why, that just won't do, will it? As you might expect, then, Top Gear presenters Clarkson, Hammond and May are hot on the trail of a replacement Stig, and they've apparently found just the place: a farm. And not just any farm... a farm where Stigs are cultivated, no less.
Top Gear America's Reasonably Priced Car outed as Suzuki SX4
Here in the good 'ole United States of America, we like things big... and small. Over in UK, they can have their reasonably priced cars, we don't need 'em. We're putting a Big Star in a Small Car instead.
Ex-Top Gear employee cashing in on Stig-gate, selling autographed helmet
The Stig drama continues from the land of Top Gear. Former employee Sophia Vaizey was a production coordinator on the popular television show for 18 months. When she left, she was presented with a helmet worn by the Stig from 2002 to 2005, signed by Richard Hammond, members of the production crew and The Stig, himself.
Some say he's Ben sacked! BBC reportedly fires The Stig
We saw this one coming; the BBC has apparently sacked The Stig. Britain's Daily Mirror tabloid reports that the Stig, a.k.a. Ben Collins, has been let go and that a new Stig has already replaced him on Top Gear. In fact, th

Top Gear producer on Stig book: "He's ours"
Who is the Stig? That question is consistently one of Google's top queries, proving the world wants to know the identity of Top Gear's masked racing driver. But... ask yourself again, Do you really want to know who the Stig is?
Identity of the Stig revealed... again [spoiler alert, maybe]
Is everything made by Aston Martin better than everything made by Ferrari? Is the Porsche 911 really nothing more than a glorified Volkswagen? Is a three-wheeled Reliant Robin the best possible choice as a replacement for the out-of-service space shuttle? And, finally, Jeremy Korzeniewski
Beijing 2010: The Stig's Chinese cousin comes out to tour the show
To our delight and dismay, there were fewer blatant vehicle clones from China's automakers littering the floor of the Beijing Motor Show this year. That's not to say we didn't encounter a slew of knock-offs, but it seems that the Chinese are finally coming into their own design-wise. However, one instantly recognizable figure caught our attention while prowling the halls of the expo center.
Top Gear reports Stig arrested in both Dublin and Mojave Desert
Some say he has a problem with authority. Others say he's actually capable of being in two places at the same time, and getting arrested in both. All we know is that Top Gear is making less sense with every passing day.

The assassination of John F. Kennedy? The existence of the Bermuda Triangle? Bah! What Brits really want to know, more than anything else, is the true identity of the Stig. This according to a poll conducted by British tabloid the Daily Star unde
British papers report the Stig is greater than any one man
There have been a whole slew of reports lately on the true identity of Top Gear's "tamed racing driver". Some say he's Lewis Hamilton, while others say he's the late great Graham Hill. Some say he's venerable stunt driver and former racing impresario Noah Joseph
Top Gear's the Stig identified... as a sensible married man?
The Stig's identity is one of those great mysteries that would lose all of its inherent intrigue if it were to be revealed. Regardless, here we are with another story that hints at the secret identity of the man behind the mask. Thankfully, though, the source of the leak was reportedly within the BBC, and the British giant says it will never officially confirm the Stig's ID. We do have clues, though, and if you want to hear 'em, see below.
The Stig: Some say he's Lewis Hamilton
Guests on the show's "a star in a reasonably-priced car" segment work with The Stig to perfect their hot lap on Top Gear's test track, but none have ever revealed his identity. Comedian Omid Djalili, however, is insistent that The Stig is actually McLaren's star pilot Lewis Hamilton. Djalili's revelation is based on speculation garnered from speaking with The Stig, who purportedly revealed his age to the comedian, and with the show's producers, who insisted two years ago that the tru

Information on changes to first aid and administration of medicines
Following recent training and national guidance, we will be making some changes to aspects of healthcare which parents and carers need to be aware of.
A full copy of the policy is available on the website and from the school office.
Individual Health and Care plans (IHCplan)
The school will ensure that pupils with lifelong, chronic or similar conditions are provided with an individual healthcare plan. This is particularly important for pupils requiring emergency medication.
Pupils who have asthma will have an asthma plan, this will be agreed with the pupil and parents and shared with relevant staff.
The school will only administer medicines in the following circumstances:
It is part of an emergency situation ( eg- anaphylaxis)
The child has an IHCplan which details medication and the staff member has had training from a health professional (eg- diabetes)
The child suffers from febrile convulsions and needs paracetamol to reduce the temperature when it reaches over 39 degrees (parents will be contacted)
Aspirin will be offered to someone suffering from a possible heart attack
On a residential school trip, where permission has been given by letter and medicines are in appropriate containers. The most senior member of staff will administer these (eg- travel sickness tablets)
Staff will not administer medications which include:
Anti-histamines unless for a pupil on an IHCplan (or for a pupil on a residential trip with permission from a parent)
Antibiotics. Parents/ carers should administer all antibiotics, if these are prescribed for a pupil up to 4x daily, parents should seek GP advice, as often this can be reduced to 3x daily.
Paracetamol (eg -Calpol) Current advice is that the school should not administer this without dispensation from a medical professional. There have been several reasons for this which include: use of paracetamol masking a serious/ life-threatening illness, risk of damage to the liver, heart and kidneys through overdose, risk of dangerous reaction especially if other medicines are in the body and link between the rise in paracetamol use and asthma attack. The most recent guidance suggests that paracetamol based products should be used to treats known pain (eg -ear ache) but not to reduce a temperature (unless febrile convulsions are likely)
All medicines will be kept securely and given back to parents for disposal when out of date.
Parents will be informed when medicines have been administered for any purpose.
Salbutamol Inhalers and spacers used to treat asthma are no longer classed as a medicine. Pupils with known asthma should have an inhaler available to them in school at all times. The school will also purchase their own inhalers for emergency use by any pupil with breathing difficulties. If you do not wish your child to have access to this, please let the office know.
The extent of any allergies and intolerances will need to be recorded for every pupil in school. Allergies which result in slight swelling, a rash or similar may develop into a more serious situation at any time.
If the school suspects that your child has anaphylaxis, you will be required to provide two epi-pens (or similar) for use in school. This will form part of an Individual Health Care plan agreed with parents.
The school will seek medical advice on any cut, burn or injury over 5cm long or an injury which is unusually deep.
The school recommends that parents observe children following any head injury for at least 4 hours and if in doubt that they seek medical advice. Information on what to look out for will be on head injury letters.
The school will no longer use wipes to clean cuts or grazes owing to the risk of infection, water will be used to irrigate the area. You may wish to send your child to school with extra socks, in case these get wet following a graze on the knee.
The school will not remove splinters or use tweezers for any purpose.
Parents will be contacted about any bleed which fails to stop after 15 minutes, this includes nose bleeds.
Plasters will be used on pupils to reduce infection in wounds and contaminate blood infecting school surfaces or other persons. Pupils who cannot use plasters will be isolated until blood has fully clotted.
All suspected broken bones will be assessed by a qualified medical practitioner and transfer to hospital or clinic will be the responsibility of the parents. Staff will travel with children to hospitals in emergency situations.
If your child complains that they are unwell but has no obvious symptoms please send them to school, we will contact you if they are sick.
If your child has a temperature above 38 degrees contact a health professional for advice before sending them to school.
An episode of sickness and/ or diarrhoea requires 48 hour ( 2 day) isolation form others in school.
Pupils can attend school with coughs and mild colds, ensure they have tissues.
Pupils with headaches will be initially treated as being low in oxygen or dehydrated, we will provide water and fresh air to see if this improves the situation before contacting parents and carers. In hot weather this is particularly likely as classrooms can become claustrophobic very quickly.

Twerton
People in Twerton 'forced to park streets away from their homes' unless they can find thousands of pounds to install their own driveways
They blame the number of bus stops and HMOs in the area
Sam FergusonTrainee reporter
People in Twerton say they are being forced to park streets away from their home unless they can stump up thousands to install their own driveways.
Residents of Shaws Way blame the amount of bus stops on the street and a growing population for leaving them unable to park their cars anywhere near their homes.
Other points of contention is the amount of work vans parked up on the street throughout the week and the amount of HMOs in Twerton.
The mounting frustration has even led to a call for a council-funded initiative to allow residents to have drives installed.
A resident, who didn’t want to be named, said: “Parking in Twerton especially on Shaws Way is terrible. We have one street that has to fill capacity for two roads of houses.

“One side of Shaws Way has high rise gardens so a driveway is very expensive to dig away the dirt and requires difficult planning permission.
“The road is also home to numerous bus stops so parking spaces are very limited. I tried to petition for the infrequently used walkway behind Shaws Way to be used for access so we could park on our front lawns as motorbikes and work vans already illegally use it. That idea was shot down very quickly.
“Not sure what else we can do, I just want to be able to park at my own home after working at the RUH (Royal United Hospital) and live in peace but more and more I have to park two or three roads away where I can’t even see my car.
People on Shaws Way say the amount of bus stops on the street stops them being able to park near their homes
“I went to the advice centre in town and they want specific measurements of how much dirt there is to move and location of all pipes and cables. I have none of this information and can’t afford to have it all surveyed.
“Everything in total including the work around £7,000 or so. I’m trying to get other people on Shaws Way interested to get ours done at same time to do it cheaper but we’d still need planning permission.
"It would be good to have a council initiative to fund us to have drives installed. I certainly can’t afford it but would really want it."
Major shake-up of parking charges given green light despite criticism from Bath traders
The problem has sparked a fierce debate online.
Jason Howard-Steele posted: "Population is growing beyond the infrastructure."
Debbie Whitefield said: "You can add works vans to that. They leave their car in the same spot all week, at weekends it’s the work van just parked up. Iceland vans, Bath building - these companies should have yards to park in, its like an industrial estate sometime on my road."
Sean Dudden, from Twerton Residents' community group has headed up the campaign to reopen the station
Sean Dudden commented: "Too many bus stops on Shaws Way taking up the parking for residents...I don't think we can change that."
Kelly M J Shellard added: "Parking in Twerton is a nightmare so many student houses and near by accommodation. When students go home parking improves. This does need addressing. The students don't bother me, it's just the parking is a joke."

Legal & Regulatory Issues
Pennsylvania hospitals join UPMC fight against AG
Morgan Haefner - Thursday, March 28th, 2019 Print | Email
Hospitals in Pennsylvania filed a motion to join a UPMC lawsuit that accuses the state's attorney general of unlawfully interfering with the health system's Highmark Health dispute.
The Hospital and Healthsystem Association of Pennsylvania filed its motion March 25 in the Middle District Federal Court. In its filing, HAP said Democratic Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro's move to require Pittsburgh-based UPMC to partake in binding arbitration if an impasse is reached with an insurer will have "significant policy consequences."
"The Office of Attorney General has proposed a plan that would potentially force all nonprofit hospitals to do business with any insurer regardless of that insurer's offered payment terms, procedures for assuring high-quality care, or the strength of its provider network," HAP said in a news release. "Hospitals would have their hands tied, keeping them from standing up for their patients and communities."
In the wake of the filing, Pittsburgh-based Allegheny Health Network, a subsidiary of Pittsburgh-based Highmark, terminated its membership with HAP, a spokesperson with the organization confirmed with Becker's Hospital Review. HAP represents more than 240 hospitals and health system members.
In late February, UPMC sued the attorney general's office over its attempt to compel the health system to work with Highmark. After a 2014 consent decree with Highmark expires June 30, roughly 175,000 Highmark Medicare Advantage plan members will lose in-network access to 11 UPMC hospitals and most UPMC physicians. In his lawsuit, Mr. Shapiro claims UPMC has violated state law by restricting access to its network of hospitals and physicians.

Revealed: new price plans for WiFi in the UAE
Telco du says revamp gives customers 'better value for money'
UAE residents can now reap the benefits of more flexible WiFi options across more locations than ever before with WiFi UAE, according to telecom operator du.
du said it is revamping its WiFi UAE pricing options to suit the needs of different profile users in a wide variety of locations, continuing to support the goal of making Dubai a smart city as part of the UAE Vision 2021.
With the introduction of the new price plans, there will now be options for 1, 3, and 10 days, offering more flexibility and allowing short-term visitors and casual users to match their internet with their unique needs.
The new pricing will be AED10 for 4 hours over the course of a day, AED25 for 12 hours over a 3 day period, and AED50 for 32 hours access over 10 days.
"With these new pricing options, customers will be getting better value for their money, as they will be able to connect for more hours per AED, whilst also having the option to opt for the smaller value purchase," said du in a statement.
This revamp will help those users get the most out of their WiFi by enabling video streaming, social media, and a media-rich browsing experience by introducing short-term duration packages, it added.
Jihad Tayara, vice president Business Development and Partnerships, du said: “With the constant increase of new users, we are revamping our pricing options to meet their demands. In spirit of this, we will be running a 3-month promotion on our WiFi packages.
"Our free WiFi will continue to offer reliable internet connection, and will be unchanged by this revamp, but now users will have the choice to benefit from flexible WiFi packages which will offer high-speed internet access for all of their online needs. Users will be able to pay with their UAE/GCC credit cards, or du Recharge Cards, making it quick and easy to get online.”
Initially launched in 2015, WiFi UAE is built on a freemium model, offering two types of access. The first is free access, but with limited speed; and the second is Premium WiFi, offering high-speed access for a specified payment.
du has introduced WiFi UAE in a number of high footfall areas including RTA serviced areas such as the Dubai Metro and Tram, Malls, Emaar Boulevard, Downtown Dubai and Global Village. For more information please visit www.WiFiUAE.ae.

Dan McFarland brushes off criticism after Clermont defeat
Heineken Champions Cup Round 5, Stade Marcel-Michelin, Clermont-Ferrand, France 11/1/2020 ©INPHO/Billy Stickland
By Jonathan Bradley Twitter Email
January 11 2020 16:28 PM
Ulster head coach Dan McFarland brushed aside any criticism of his side's decisions to go for the corner rather than the posts during their 29-13 Champions Cup defeat to Clermont.
https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sport/dan-mcfarland-brushes-off-criticism-after-clermont-defeat-38853096.html
https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sport/65d9c/38853095.ece/AUTOCROP/h342/inpho_01661433.jpg
The loss at the Stade Marcel Michelin saw their hopes of hosting a quarter-final virtually up in smoke - although they will still be guaranteed a place in the last eight by beating Bath at home next weekend - with the province left to rue a strong first-half performance yielding only a one-point interval advantage, their frustration at spurned opportunities only heightened by failure to register any scores during ten minutes with Clermont scrum-half Morgan Parra in the sin bin.
It would all loom large when the Top 14 powerhouse stormed back in the second-half with a pair of tries to take both the game and top spot in Pool 3 ahead of the concluding round of fixtures.
Ultimately Clermont's winning margin far exceeded the tally Ulster turned down in kickable penalties, although there remained a question of whether a greater half-time lead would have changed the complexion of the second-half.
McFarland though defended his captain Iain Henderson's trio of decisions to go for corner during the first 40.
"They scored 29 points," he said by way of explanation for his side's desire to go for broke rather than build a score in a game where they managed only one penalty after John Cooney's converted try in the eighth minute.
"The way I look at it is, when they're down to 14 men and you kick to the corner, if you can't score tries, you're not a good enough team to win in Clermont,
"It's as simple as that.
"If we take advantage of those opportunities and score, which we're more than capable of doing, we'd have had a much better chance of going on and winning the game. If we'd have kicked three points there...maybe...but I don't see Clermont as a team that folds under three extra points of pressure."
A regular tactic that has served Ulster well more often than not this season, in the opinion of McFarland sending the ball to the corner was not to blame, rather the lack of execution when they did.
"We're right in the middle of one of the most challenging places in Europe to come and play," he added. "They had a record crowd here, everything's bouncing, and they're coming in firing so lets not underestimate the challenge that we faced.
"But on a couple of occasions we didn't execute to the level that we needed to. In the second-half we lost two scrums which is unacceptable at this level, you can't lose two scrums and expect to not be under pressure at the other end.
"That's how it happened."
With next week's visit of Bath now effectively a knock-out game, Ulster will be sweating over the fitness of Marty Moore and Will Addison after both left the field with injuries in the second-half.

Update: The Victorian Department of Education and Training says it is working closely with services, providers and local government to prepare for the roll-out of three-year-old kindergarten - including Buloke Shire Council. "The Victorian Government is providing Buloke Shire Council with almost $1.2 million for the Charlton and District Kindergarten and almost $1.2 million for Sea Lake Kindergarten," a department spokesperson said. The spokesperson said the funding was "the first of many opportunities for service providers and local governments to apply for capital grants to support them to expand their kindergarten programs. "Three-year-old kindergarten is the largest reform the early childhood sector has ever experienced, and rolling it out will take time," they said. Earlier: WYCHEPROOF has missed out on funding for a new pre-school centre. Families are demanding answers about why the application was "deemed unworthy". The community has been campaigning for a new centre, with efforts ramping up ahead of the roll-out of the state government's early childhood education reforms. Funded three-year-old kindergarten is to be delivered in six Victorian shires next year, including Buloke. With mere months until the program starts in Wycheproof, the community says a short-term funding commitment is critical in its endeavour to retain and support families. "This contradiction of the roll-out scheme tagline, which seeks to 'prioritise rural Victoria', will not be accepted by our community," a statement said. "Our kids deserve better. Our kids matter, too." Wycheproof mothers last week resorted to some daring photography in a bid to raise awareness for the need for a new pre-school. Standing naked in a barley field with a camera on timer, Wycheproof Preschool Parent Advisory Group president Tessa Coles said the women created a picture people wouldn't go past. "It really is desperate times, desperate measures," Mrs Coles said. She said they were sick of not hearing back and not being heard. The image went vital, and the story with it. Yet, the community claims the funding bid was 'not strong enough' for the state government. Mrs Coles said there were a number of reasons why the community had been advocating for a new pre-school. "The building is well and truly past its use-by date," she said. She said there was only one desk for staff to use and no room for separate sleeping quarters for the children, or a safety lockdown area. "It's full of asbestos," Mrs Coles said. "There are so many things." The site itself also had its challenges, being on one of the busiest streets in Wycheproof. The advisory group keen to see a new preschool built on the school grounds to ease the transition from early years. "We believe a new building would help retain and attract staff," Mrs Coles said. "We're onto our fifth teacher this year." The community is struggling with insecure childcare, which the service provider has previously attributed to staff shortages. Mrs Coles said there was hope for improvement, with talk of daycare and kindergarten being offered on alternating days and with extended service hours. There is a waitlist for both kindergarten and daycare within the community. The state government announced more than $1 million for preschools in both Sea Lake and Charlton while Wycheproof was waiting on the results of its funding application. Member for Northern Victoria, Mark Gepp, announced $1.152m for for major refurbishments and an extension at Sea Lake Kindergarten in October. Premier Daniel Andrews visited Charlton earlier this month, announcing both a $9.2m package to support early childhood teachers and $1.2m the redevelop the Charlton and District Kindergarten. Mrs Coles said the community would keep trying for a new pre-school centre. Have you signed up to the Bendigo Advertiser's daily newsletter and breaking news emails?

Meet The Most Interesting Cow In The World
Meet the Ben & Jerry’s Cow:
You’ve probably seen this character around. Like on that pint of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough you’re digging into. Or around your local Scoop Shop. She's a part of the family around here, and when she’s not gallivanting around Scoop Shops and gracing pints all over the world, she can be found chilling out, being cooler than most of us could ever hope to be.
Why a Cow?
Being an ice cream company, cream is pretty important to us. So cows are pretty important to us. Back in the early days of Ben & Jerry’s, our co-founders absolutely wanted to use Vermont dairy – as we still do today – and developed close relationships with dairy farmers. So naturally, a cow became a great icon for the company.
The Man Behind the Moo
But this cow wasn’t always the Ben & Jerry’s cow. In the earliest days, the duo had a goofy cartoon cow that they used on their trucks and in advertisements, but they never thought it was quite right.
So, in 1983, they approached Woody Jackson, a beloved Vermont artist known for his stunning cow depictions to talk about a partnership. Always fond of supporting fellow Vermonters, Ben and Jerry were excited to work with Woody and upgrade their cow art to boot. The guys struck a deal, and this cow has been the face of Ben & Jerry's ever since.
A Little Known Fact
Surprise: the Ben & Jerry's cow is a female! Of course she is, she makes milk.
Our 17 Favorite Cow Moments
These are our favorite Ben & Jerry's cow moments from over the years. With all of her worldly travels, she’s definitely the most interesting cow in the world.
Like when she went music festivaling to urge music-lovers to take action on climate change:
Or when she went to the cinema and saw a familiar face:
When she was just as excited as we were about our new Non-Dairy flavors:
When she dressed up as the Village People, for no particular reason:
When she was pumped about her new iPhone, even though we’re not sure how she used it with those hooves:
When she got really into Renaissance art:
When she schooled us on the baseball diamond:
When she was feeling extra groovy:
When she got real about climate change:
That time she ran a marathon:
When she wanted to tell everyone how a-moo-zing our Caring Dairy program is:
When she knew that love is love, no matter what:
When she spoke truth to power and fought for our democracy:
When she was so proud to cast her vote:
When she went diving for ice cream treasure:
When she reminded us to keep the earth clean:
When she went on an ice cream stake-out:

Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2019 Financial Results
August 06, 2019 4:01pm Comments
MENLO PARK, Calif., Aug. 06, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. (NASDAQ:PACB) today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2019.
On April 24, 2019, the Company announced the commercial launch of the Sequel II System and the Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT®) Cell 8M chip, and began shipping Sequel II Systems to customers beyond the five early access sites. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had installed a total of 41 Sequel II Systems, which includes a number of sites with multiple systems installed.
On November 1, 2018, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Illumina, Inc. ("Illumina") and FC Ops Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Illumina (the "Merger Agreement") pursuant to which Illumina will acquire the Company for $8.00 per share of the Company's common stock in an all-cash transaction and FC Ops Corp. will be merged with and into the Company (the "Merger"), with the Company surviving the Merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Illumina. Completion of the transaction is subject to terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including expiration or termination of any waiting periods applicable to the consummation of the Merger under the United States Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and clearance under the antitrust laws of certain non-U.S. jurisdictions. The Merger has been notified to the United States Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") and to the Competition and Markets Authority of the United Kingdom ("CMA") and is under review by both the FTC and the CMA. The Company and Illumina will continue to work cooperatively with the FTC and the CMA. The Company and Illumina expect the Merger to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2019, at which time the Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Illumina and will cease to be a publicly traded company. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized approximately $3.8 million and $9.3 million, respectively, in operating expenses in connection with the Merger.
No Conference Call
Given the pending Merger with Illumina, management will not be hosting a conference call to discuss its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019 and does not expect to do so for future quarters.

How a Deepdale grandad's life was saved by specialist heart pumps at Blackpool Victoria Hospital
George and Jean Thompson
George Thompson is living proof that miracles do happen.
Dr Andrew Wiper and Dr Billal Patel with the heart pump at Blackpool Victoria Hospital
Just five months ago a devastated George, from Deepdale, sat with his wife Jean in the hospital cafe at Blackpool Victoria Hospital composing a tragic farewell message to his beloved family and friends.
After years of debilitating lung problems, George’s heart was failing and he was rushed into hospital, but was not fit enough to undergo a life-saving heart bypass.
His condition was so poor he was told he would not withstand a general anaesthetic.
Two of his arteries were totally blocked and his heart was functioning at about 20 per cent.
He only had one functioning lung and he doubted he would see Christmas.
The 67-year-old father-of-one says: “I thought I was going to die.
“Jean and I compiled a text to our family to say there was nothing the medics could do for me and I was being discharged on medication.
“My heart was not strong enough to survive a heart by-pass.
“Our son, Leighton, and his partner, Louise, had just had their beautiful baby, Georgina, and all I could do when I saw her was cry.
“I thought that just as Georgina had come into the world I was going to go out.
“My lungs were shot, my heart was shot, there was no hope for me.”
But then a miracle happened.
The hospital’s charity, Blue Skies Hospitals Fund, had just funded nine single-use Impella Heart Pumps which can keep the blood flowing in the heart while stents are being inserted.
This device meant the operation could go ahead without general anaesthetic.
For a few patients like George, it can mean the difference between life and death.
The day after George and Jean compiled their heart breaking message, Consultant Cardiologist, Dr Billal Patel, went to see him on the ward to tell him that the Lancashire Cardiac Centre had just received the Impella pumps which could allow a medical team to insert the stents needed open up George’s arteries.
George says: “I had been so depressed it was hard to process the information Dr Patel had given me.
“Having thought I had no hope of a future, this was the news I wanted.”
Jean said she just cried when she heard the news that the team were to operate within two days.
She adds: “George had been in the right place at the right time.
“Had his heart started to fail earlier, before the pumps had been purchased by Blue Skies, he would not have had a future.”
George, who also has emphysema, underwent a five-hour operation to have nine stents fitted and now, five months on, his heart is fully recovered.
George jokes: “Dr Patel and his colleague, Dr Andrew Wiper, along with the cardiac team, gave me my life back and now I am filled with optimism and hope for my future.
“I think nine stents was a record for Dr Patel and I am not sure if it has been done in this country before.
“I was discharged the day after the operation and have now completely recovered. With the expertise of the medics at Blackpool Teaching Hospitals, and these heart pumps, people with heart and lung conditions do not have to go through the worry that nothing can be done.
“I will be forever grateful to the medical team at Blackpool and Blue Skies charity who gave me my life back.”
Consultant Cardiologist, Dr Wiper adds: “Mr Thompson had a very poor prognosis if his coronary disease was left untreated.
“Through the use of the Impella heart pump and the expertise of the Lancashire Cardiac Centre, he now has a very bright future.”
Dozens of operations cancelled at Blackpool Victoria Hospital due to 'urgent' pressures on NHS

A threat to our Geranium maderense
Chris has planted out several hundred plants of the tender Geranium maderense along the roadside outside of the Gardens. They have survived two winters and by May they should be putting on a spectacular show of flowers. Nothing quite like this will have been seen in this country before so, all being well, it should be spectacular.
However, to achieve this has been a challenge. The principle challenge has been to get them through the past two winters unscathed and it looks like this has been achieved. However, what wasn’t expected was the these normally pest- free plants would be affected by disease.
in early February, Chris noticed that the leaves were becoming infected by a leaf spot fungus causing brown patches of dead tissues on the leaf. As the weeks progressed, these patches spread and lots of the older leaves were killed off, making a sorrry sight.
We began to investigate what was causing the problem, with the help of plant pathologists at RHS Wisley. It turns out that the culprit is a fungus called Coleroa robertianum. This is a common leaf spot on wild Herb Robert leaves late in the winter. There are plants of Herb Robert carrying this fungus throughout the Gardens. What appears to have happened is that the fungus has jumped species to infected the big, juicy leaves of Geranium maderense, which it finds very much to its taste.
This is the first time that RHS were aware of this fungus affecting Geranium maderense and it is interesting that the English name they give to this plant is Giant Herb Robert. Although they are very different in size, the two Geranium species must be quite closely related. Pictured below are the leaf spot infections, and fungal spores of Coleroa robertianum.
We are hoping that, as the weather warms up, our Geranium maderense will start growing rapidly and produce clean young leaves followed by spectacular flower heads. This is what they should look like:

Daniel Ammann has promised to heap more misery on the English by beating Tony Conquest this Saturday
Queensberry Promotions - February 19, 2014
Australian Daniel Ammann has promised to heap more misery on the English by beating Tony Conquest this Saturday (22nd February) at the York Hall, Bethnal Green.
Ammann challenges Romford ace Conquest with the Vacant Commonwealth Cruiserweight title on the line at the home of London boxing, live and exclusive on BoxNation (Sky Ch. 437/HD 449 and Virgin Ch. 546).
With England’s cricketers smashed 5-0 in the Ashes series, Ammann, known as “The Doberman”, is looking to carry on the drubbing in the ring against Conquest and take home the prized Commonwealth belt.
“I’m looking forward to Saturday night very much. One things for sure I’m leaving Heathrow on Sunday morning with the belt around my waist,” Said Ammann.
“I’ve prepared good and hard and I’ve adjusted surprisingly quick to the time-zone, I feel fit and strong and ready to have a great fight against Conquest. He’s a very tough kid, plenty of balls for a fight and I’m impressed with what I’ve seen of his fights online. He got up from his knockdowns against Wadi Camacho in the first two rounds of their fight and took it to him. I’m similar to him, you have to nail me to the floor to beat me, it’s going to be a fantastic fight between us and for the fans,”
“He’s got more fight about him than all eleven of your cricket boys! You got hit for six in the Ashes but I’m looking to knockout Conquest for ten,”
“You Pommes have monopolised the Commonwealth title, I was looking at the ratings recently and the vast majority of the titles are held by English fighters. I’ve got to start the trend to reverse that by taking the title home with me Saturday,”
The last Australian fighter to win the Commonwealth Cruiserweight title here was Adam Watt when he caused a huge upset to beat Bruce Scott inside four rounds in June 2000 in Glasgow and Ammann is confident he can do the same.
He added, “I spoke to Adam a few weeks ago and he told me what to expect and the mindset I need when I get into the ring. He pulled off a big upset when he beat Scott, it can be done, and I’m going do it,”
Trio of top prospects in action on Jan.17 on ShoBox this Friday
“The Commonwealth title is held in high esteem in Australia, it’s got a lot of history and next to winning a world title, winning that belt will be the next best thing.”
A few remaining tickets are available from Queensberry Promotions on 01992 550 888. Doors will open at 5pm with the first fight at 5.30pm.
Watch Conquest v Ammann, plus an action-packed undercard featuring hot prospects Mitchell Smith and Tom Baker, on BoxNation, the Channel of Champions from 7pm on Saturday night. (Sky Ch.437/449 HD, Virgin Ch.546). Join at www.boxnation.com

Requirement to sit a written exam NOT disability discrimination
In this article, we consider the case of Schofield v Manchester Airport Group plc (Case No. 2401374/16) in which the Manchester Employment tribunal rejected discrimination claims brought by an aviation security officer with learning difficulties who was dismissed when he failed a written exam that was an essential requirement of the role.
The Equal Pay Saga at Asda Continues
7,000 employees at Asda brought a group equal pay claim in the Employment Tribunal in 2016. After the employees succeeded in that claim, Asda appealed to the Employment Appeal Tribunal, the judgement of which has now been released. This is the largest private-sector equal pay claim ever made in the UK and is attracting a lot of attention as it progresses through the court system.
All change for Data Protection….?
The data protection landscape will change dramatically in 2018 when the General Data Protection Regulation comes into force in May 2018. We are also anticipating a new Data Protection Act. So what do you really need to know about the changes, and should you be worried? We will be covering this area at our CIPD seminar on 11th October 2017, so come along then if you want to find out more.

Does Chris Manzo Have a Girlfriend? The 'Manzo'd with Children' Star Has Grown Up A Lot Since 'RHONJ'
By Kayla Hawkins
Michael Loccisano/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
Christopher might not be the youngest Manzo, but he's the real baby of the family. While older brother Albie has taken the lead with opening new businesses, and younger sister Lauren has found her way with Caface and will be getting married next summer, Manzo'd with Children 's Chris Manzo is still a single guy. On RHONJ, Chris was always the sibling who just couldn't be serious. His constant jokes made him sound kind of like that one kid in middle school who's convinced that he's funny (maybe you had to go to middle school in New Jersey to get this, but something tells me it's a nationwide phenomenon). But while Chris always played things for laughs, his siblings were both settling down. Obviously Lauren's wedding to longtime boyfriend Vito will be a huge family event, and Albie is all business, all the time.
But Chris is getting more focused, and has grown up a lot in the last year or so since he was last on camera. He's using his social media presence to promote the Manzo brothers' first restaurant, Little Town, and tease new dishes. Both brothers are still promoting their first business, blk. water, as well, which has partnered with Generation Rescue to raise Autism awareness. Blk. water has always struck me as an odd business venture, but the restaurant is slowly getting better reviews and made it through its first year, a hurdle that a lot of quickly opened eateries can't clear.
Chris is currently single, or at least doesn't have a relationship serious enough to make Instagram official. And while Albie always comes across as super serious, in the pilot of Manzo'd with Children , he brings home a girlfriend to meet his family, who doesn't really seem to impress his mother.
By contrast, Chris' Instagram posts are pretty much all about spending time with his young nephews (second cousins? whatever the correct term for "your cousin's babies" is). And doesn't seem to spend all of his time out clubbing or staying up all night grabbing free drinks at Little Town. Even though he had such a long way to go to catch up with his brother and sister, surprisingly, Chris is actually the one who seems to have grown up the most since the Manzos appeared on The Real Housewives of New Jersey.

2020 Platform: Energy and Environment
Climate change is an existential threat to humanity. We believe California must lead in forging a robust global solution to the climate crisis. Further, all Californians, urban, suburban, and rural, hold a shared interest in preserving and protecting the environment that sustains us. California Democrats have led the way toward effective solutions to problems arising from our industrial society – resource extraction, waste disposal, and pollution – and their disparate impact on our forests, family farms, the poor, persons of color, and indigenous people. California Democrats will prioritize energy and environment.
Climate change and other environmental issues present a clear and imminent threat to our planet and our public health, therefore California Democrats will:
Support a green new deal: A comprehensive energy security and climate protection law calling for full decarbonization of the United States economy running on net-zero emissions by 2050, creating millions of good jobs; investing in green infrastructure and industry; securing clean air and water, climate and community resilience, healthy food; and, access to nature for all;
Urge Congress and the California legislature to implement a green new deal that achieves 100 percent clean electricity by 2045, with hiring preferences for formerly incarcerated and socially and/or economically disadvantaged peoples; deploys building and vehicle electrification and zero-net, carbon-free infrastructure; transitions away from extraction and refining of fossil fuels; creates substantial setbacks separating fossil fuel extraction from residential communities; upgrades America’s buildings for efficiency and safety; adopts low-carbon, plant-based food, and small-scale and organic farming; expands affordable housing close to jobs; involves labor unions in the process of job training and worker deployment; creates a network of public banks to finance green infrastructure; respects Indigenous rights; ensures that local implementation of the transition from fossil fuels is led from the community level; and, ensures that frontline communities affected by environmental degradation are given priority to mitigate poor planning and zoning decisions of the past;
Urge Congress, the California Legislature, the California Public Utilities Commission, and the California Energy Commission to reduce long-term reliance on nuclear power, ensure the safety and thoroughly evaluate the full lifecycle costs of nuclear power, phase-out all reactors, decommission and withhold funds for license renewal for Mark I nuclear reactors (which cannot be made safe), and ensure that operators provide emergency plans and provide adequate liability protection for populations within 50 miles of reactors;
Urge the California Legislature, the California Public Utilities Commission, and the California Energy Commission to eliminate long-term reliance on gas storage facilities, such as Aliso Canyon and Playa del Rey, and to swiftly decommission these dangerous and unsafe sites, while providing incentives for municipalities, individuals, and families to phase out natural gas-powered appliances;
Work to ensure the clean-up and safe storage of nuclear waste and the clean-up of Superfund sites;
Support distributed energy such as rooftop and passive solar; support expansion of solar energy production in disadvantaged communities and multi-unit developments; support government initiatives that allow property owners to finance energy efficiency and renewable energy projects for their homes and commercial buildings; and, support energy democracy and community choice (CCA) energy programs to transition California to locally sourced clean power that will provide green jobs;
Support the implementation of a fossil-fuels extraction tax whose proceeds are solely used to phase out fossil fuel production and create a just and fair transition for workers in the fossil fuel industry;
Oppose new fossil fuel infrastructure projects; and,
Support an immediate moratorium on fracking and other forms of oil/gas well stimulation.
Protect California's right, consistent with longstanding federal law, to set California science-based environmental standards that lead the way for the rest of the nation;
Commit to environmental justice: no community should be subjected to environmental hazards due to race, economic standing, or immigration status; and, prioritize legislation that includes environmental justice provisions;
Protect California’s unique coastline and wetlands: preserve and ensure coastal access for all people; support the recovery and preservation of our ocean ecosystems; and, oppose new offshore oil/gas leasing;
Protect California’s majestic forests: safeguard forests through sustained yield best practices forestry; oppose clear-cutting; and, encourage planting of trees in appropriate settings;
Protect California’s public lands for all to appreciate: support access to all while protecting sensitive areas; support dedicated funding for state parks; support full funding of state resource agencies, including State Parks, Fish & Wildlife, and Coastal Commission; and, oppose sale of public forests and parkland; and, oppose logging, mining and other resource extraction on public lands;
Protect California’s diverse flora and fauna: support preservation of adequate corridors and resting spaces for wildlife to migrate from important habitats to locations where they breed, feed or winter; and, support legislation protecting important keystone species of wildlife and plants;
Restore the clarity of Lake Tahoe and preserve California's inland lakes and wetlands by preventing the intrusion of new aquatic invasive species and by protecting watersheds and surrounding forest ecosystems;
Support mandatory funding for Payments in Lieu of Taxes (PILT) to counties that have relinquished taxable land to the state for wildlife conservation; and,
Protect California’s neighborhoods, rivers, beaches, and marine ecosystems from the costly scourge of plastic pollution: eliminate single use plastics and mandate eco-friendly packaging; and, support extended producer responsibility policies which require manufacturers of non-recyclable or hazardous products to provide for the safe disposal of these products at the end of their useful life.
Agriculture and Food Safety
Support an economically viable, environmentally sound, and socially responsible agriculture and food sector that works for all of California’s people;
Curtail and rapidly phase out chlorpyrifos and other pesticides that pose threats to farm workers, consumers, and bees and other pollinators;
Promote humane labor conditions for farm workers and other workers, as a matter of environmental justice, so that workers are not forced to choose between an unsafe livelihood and unemployment;
Encourage eat-local movements, small-scale farming, organic farming, community gardens, farmers’ markets, and other farm-to-table programs as a means of connecting consumers to food production, providing humane treatment of farm animals, and driving economic growth; and,
Support policy and legislation that encourages and educates on the use of plant-based alternatives to reduce reliance on animal agriculture, a major contributor to climate change.
Transportation and the Built Environment
Defend California's longstanding ability to set science-based standards for internal combustion engines as a part of a comprehensive plan to reduce tailpipe emissions;
Support housing, transit, and jobs policies that give people jobs that pay a living wage near housing they can afford, so as to discourage super-commuters;
Support expansion of electric vehicle charging infrastructure; and, support policies designed to lower carbon emissions (and electrification where possible) of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles;
Demand that communities of color and low income communities, which are often disproportionately burdened with a high density of toxic industrial facilities and highways, receive community benefits including health care to cover injurious effects of pollution from forced infrastructure and industry;
Demand that communities of color and low income communities are given the right to participate as equal partners at every level of project decision-making, including needs assessment, planning, implementation, enforcement, and evaluation;
Demand Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) driving-reduction targets, shown by science to support climate stabilization;
Work for equitable and environmentally-sound road and parking operations; support strategies to reduce driving, such as creating smart growth and “complete streets,” teaching bicycling traffic skills, and improving transit, from local systems to high-speed rail;
Support policies that empower small business owners to make investments in transportation infrastructure to ensure that freight moves by lower-emission local, short-line freight railroads to mitigate highway congestion and pollution;
Support the design and implementation of a single, environmentally-sound technology system that will collect and distribute fees for the use of roads, parking, and transit that is both economically fair and convenient and protects user privacy and the interests of low-income users;
Encourage Net-Zero Energy Emissions in new home and commercial construction by 2030 and encourage the use of fire-resistant, termite-proof, and energy-efficient building materials in all new residential and light commercial construction;
Promote urban policies that lead to revitalization of disadvantaged communities, but without gentrifying communities so as to displace longtime residents; and,
Demand a state plan specifying how cars and light-duty trucks can meet climate-stabilizing targets by defining enforceable measures to achieve necessary fleet efficiency and per-capita driving limits; and,
Work to ensure that freeway expansion projects are subordinate to more sustainable alternatives that will result in more jobs and more economic growth.
Protect clean, safe drinking water in schools, public buildings, and municipal water systems as a basic human right;
Support the mandate to ensure clean drinking water for all Californians by fully protecting all water sources, funding the treatment systems needed to clean up existing contamination, and assuring that small water systems, heavily concentrated in rural areas, have the resources to deliver reliable, safe drinking water;
Motivate efficient and sustainable use of water; hold all users accountable to reasonable consumption levels; implement and enforce regulations for groundwater use that includes full usage documentation; and, ensure allocation and management of water to sustain the economy, including needs of agriculture, ecosystems, fisheries, recreation, and endangered species;
Protect the Delta by upgrading the levees, restoring the rivers, increasing floodplain habitat for fish and wildlife and groundwater recharge, mitigating saltwater intrusion and subsidence, and preserving agricultural land; and, invest in projects throughout the state that reduce reliance on the Delta and promote water conservation as a way of life;
Oppose farming practices that lead to long-term depletion of California’s aquifers;
Prioritize conservation, stormwater capture/reclamation, and potable reuse/recycling over desalination and dam-building; and,
Work to ensure that all stakeholders are consulted regarding proposals for new or expanded diversions of water from one watershed to another and that the environmental, economic, and social justice impact of these water diversions are fully addressed.

Meet Brendan
LYNN SAYS THANK YOU TO ITS VETERANS
LYNN — When Robert Quinn returned home from Vietnam in 1967, there was no ticker tape parade, welcome celebrations or thank yous for his service.
Instead, he was met by a public who had grown weary of the conflict and wanted the U.S. to end its involvement in the Southeast Asia nation.
“The day after I came back from Vietnam, there was an anti-war rally in Wakefield which I attended in uniform with a fellow vet,” recalled Quinn, 71. “It was frightening. The protesters called us baby killers and we left pretty quick. It was very hard to take.”
The tone was much different on Friday as a crowd gathered in the City Hall lobby to honor Vietnam veterans and the 19 Lynn natives who made the ultimate sacrifice. The city celebrated the 45th anniversary of the war’s end by hailing its vets.
Michael Sweeney, director the Veterans’ Services and an Afghanistan War veteran, said the way Viet vets when treated when they came home can never be corrected.
“We know how difficult it was for many to return home,” he said. “But we in Lynn will do our part to make sure you know that we have never forgotten your service and we honor you.”
Mayor Thomas M. McGee declared April 6 Vietnam Veterans Day in the city and said how important it is to honor all veterans.
State Sen. Brendan Crighton (D-Lynn) recognized the veterans in the room for the sacrifices they made. He gave a shout out to the Lynn teens from SkillsUSA, a national program whose mission is to empower its members to become leaders.
State Rep. Donald Wong (R-Saugus) said Vietnam veterans were not appreciated when they returned from combat, but hopefully that attitude has changed.
“It’s great that we are joining them today and their spouses,” he said.
City Councilor Peter Capano, an Army veteran, said we should never forget the sacrifices made by veterans.
“We are here to honor you for your service to our country,” he said.
David Barrios, a 17-year-old student from Lynn Vocational Technical Institute, was on hand along with a dozen members of SkillsUSA.
“We wanted to be here to show our support,” he said. “Veterans give so much of their lives so we can be home safe.”

Genachowski: Rate Regs, Unbundling Off the Table
FCC chairman allays cable industry fears, says commission's goal has not changed
FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski said Thursday (May 13) that rate regulation, wholesale unbundling and reselling are "off the table" when it comes to applying Title II regs to broadband transmission.
That came in an interview with National Cable & Telecommunications Association President Kyle McSlarrow at a general session at the Cable Show in Los Angeles. McSlarrow, who had sought the assurances, asked how could the industry be sure a future chairman--he pointed out the industry had had trouble with past chairmen--would not see it differently and not forbear those portions of Title II common carrier regs.
Genachowski said that the FCC has never gone back on forbearance decisions. The subject came up after McSlarrow said they had to talk about the elephant in the room (and even flashed a slide of an elephant with Title II on its side). They did.
McSlarrow said the regulatory impact of a change in a system that is relatively lightly regulated (under Title I information service regs) to one where the outcome is unknown has raised a lot of questions in the past few weeks.
"We did not let the elephant out of the cage," Genachowski responded. He also said nothing that has happened in the past few weeks has changed the goals of the FCC. He said the BitTorrent case damaged the legal underpinnings of those goals, but not the goals. It damaged the foundation under the house, he said, but suggested the house still stands. "We had a problem to solve," he said, "and we are just at the beginning."
Genachowski said his goal was getting back to a solid legal foundation that allows the commission to do what it has previously articulated, but not more. He rejected the do nothing extreme--"I think that was me," said McSlarrow, as well as the other extreme of applying all 48 title II regs to all of broadband. He called his approach one that has barriers to regulatory overreach and creep, while still fixing the foundation and letting the commission move forward with the broadband plan.
McSlarrow asked if there is a risk if the government regulates operators, but not applications providers like Google. Genachowski said the issue is not about Google, but the next Google or Amazon, about speakers who don't want to be censored on the 'net, and about consumers connecting on the Internet. "Our focus is on that," he said. The chairman began the interview with a shout-out for the industry. The country would not be here talking about broadband adoption were it not for the pioneers of the cable industry and the cable modem, he said, calling it "an amazing American success story."
But the chairman was also critical of the nation's broadband progress, saying it needed to do better. "We are not on the Olympic podium when it comes to broadband," he said, citing speed and innovation metrics.
Back in Washington at a Hill hearing on the FCC's National Broadband Plan, Rep. Joe Barton (R-Tex.) said he was tired of hearing such criticisms (speaking generally, not responding to Genachowski), pointing out that there was over 90% deployment, and two thirds of those were taking it.
Genachowski said that consumers and the industry both recognize it would be "desireable" for consumers to have an easy, integrated way to access video. He called the FCC's set-top inquiry a "fresh look" at the issue. "The cable industry has been very constructive in this," he said, citing the consumer principles NCTA offered up on set-tops.
McSlarrow pointed out that Comcast Chairman Brian Roberts had displayed an iPad app at the show that essentially turned it into a remote control. "There is a lot going on," he said, suggesting there is currently innovation in the navigation space. Genachowski agreed that kind of example is at the core of innovation in the 21st century. "It is great to see these industries seize these opportunities." Genachowski said it was not a big jump from that iPad app to electronic textbooks.
McSlarrow said that what is coming through the pipe is also key. He complimented the chairman for the FCC's recent decision to allow a selectable output waiver for early release of HD movies for VOD.
Genachowski said the waiver illustrates that "we mean what we say." He said it was important to preserve the freedom and openness of the 'net, but has also said the FCC needs to do it in a way that encourages experimentation. He said if the FCC can't find a way to get a real healthy return, it won't work. This order is an example in a concrete way of us balancing the need for an open Internet and one that allows speakers to speak and business models to develop and intellectual property to be protected.

Instrumental former Burnley FC director dies
Former director Bob Blakeborough pictured with Stan Ternet's Clarets squad
Published: 12:01 Updated: 12:14 Thursday 14 November 2019
Burnley Football Club's former long-serving director Bob Blakeborough has died at the age of 75.
Mr Blakeborough served the club’s board for 18 years following his appointment in 1986.
Bob Blakeborough
The Burnley-based businessman helped the Clarets come through one of the most testing times in the club’s history before establishing the foundations for their climb back up the divisions by inviting Barry Kilby to take over as chairman.
Current director Clive Holt joined the Turf Moor board at the same time as Mr Blakeborough.
Paying tribute to his former colleague, Mr Holt said: “On behalf of the board I would like to express our sadness at the news of Bob’s death.
“Bob came into the club when its existence was at threat and after coming through that period, he was then instrumental, along with myself, in Barry agreeing to join us and getting Barry onto the board.
“That got the club moving back in the right direction, with Bob having played an important part in Burnley’s history prior to standing down in 1984.”
Mr Blakeborough’s election to the board came at the start of the fateful 1986/87 season when the Clarets only avoided relegation from the Football League on the final day.
Board members were regularly required to pay the weekly wage bill and even after a period of greater stability it took the appointment of Mr Kilby to the board in October, 1998 – and as chairman two months later – to provide the backing for a period of playing success prompted by promotion back to the Championship under Stan Ternent in 2000.
Mr Blakeborough leaves wife Carol and daughter Amanda and the thoughts of everyone at Turf Moor are with his family and friends.

No political content on NaMo TV without pre-certification: EC tells Delhi CEO
PTI April 12, 2019
The Election Commission Thursday said since NaMo TV is sponsored by the BJP all recorded programmes displayed on the platform should be pre-certified by media certification and monitoring committee of Delhi and all political publicity contents being displayed without pre-certification be removed immediately.
The poll panel said any political content has to be permitted by the local media certification committee "strictly in accordance with the EC's instructions in this regard".
After the Congress filed a complaint with the poll panel about the channel disturbing the level playing field, the EC had asked the CEO Delhi to file a report on the issue. Earlier, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting told the poll panel that it was an advertising platform that did not require a license from the ministry.
The Delhi CEO approved the logo of NaMo TV, which the BJP said is part of the NaMo App that it owns, but did not "certify" the content as it contained the old speeches of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. "It has been brought to the notice of the commission that NaMo TV/content TV is a platform service offered by DTH operators to the BJP on a paid basis... any political publicity material or contents being displayed on electronic media without the requisite certification from competent authority (MCMC in this ease) should be removed immediately and any political content shall only be permitted strictly in accordance with the EC's instructions in this regard," the EC directive read.
It pointed out that the Delhi CEO's committee has not pre-certified the content being displayed on NaMo TV. "As NaMo TV/content TV is sponsored by a political party, all recorded programmes of political contents displayed on the channel/platform would be covered under the purview of the commission's order... Accordingly, all political advertisements and all recorded programmes with political contents are mandatorily required to be pre-certified by the MCMC before telecasting/displaying," it said.

Festival of the Mind in Sarzana, the XVI edition
by CinqueTerre.com
30 August 2019 fino al 1 September 2019
The Festival of the Mind is the first European festival dedicated to creativity and the birth of ideas promoted by Carispezia Foundation and from Municipality of Sarzana with the direction of Benedetta Marietti . The XVI edition will be held by August 30 al 1 September , in Sarzana.
40 meetings in the program plus 20 events created specifically for children and teens and 6 educational workshops in the section curated by Francesca Gianfranchi , a real festival at the festival.
One hundred Italian and international guests in three days will investigate the changes, the creative ferment and the hopes of society through meetings, readings, shows, workshops and moments of cultural study, addressing, with a clear and understandable language, to the broad and intergenerational public that has always been the true soul of the festival.
2019 theme: the future .
"The concept of" future "has always been important and necessary for the human mind - explains Benedetta Marietti - but it acquires particular significance in an era like ours, full of social changes, technological transformations and uncertainties that weigh on the present. With the usual multidisciplinary approach, the festival examines the possible scenarios that await us in the scientific and humanistic fields, without forgetting that to look to the future we need to know the past. And with the firm conviction that to imagine the future we want it is necessary to create and invent a new reality starting today. I hope that the festival, through the competent and passionate voices of the speakers, will succeed in conveying the conviction that all of us can and must become "inventors of the future" ".
500 volunteers , of which most students who with passion and generosity contribute to creating that unique festive atmosphere that reigns in the historic center of Sarzana during the festival. Testimony of the strong bond that the event has created with the territory and the desire of many young people to get involved.
Scientists, humanists and artists will explore 40 meetings the future theme , the focus of this edition.
The inaugural lesson of Amalia Ercoli Finzi entitled "Space exploration: today, tomorrow and ... the day after tomorrow". The aerospace engineer, who has been dealing with space flight dynamics and space mission planning for over twenty-five years, has in fact contributed to the creation of satellites and probes for planetary exploration and held positions at the Italian Space Agency, the Agency European Space Agency and the International Astronautical Federation. Gold Medal of the President of the Republic for scientific merits, Ercoli Finzi recalls that, to reveal the secrets of worlds so far away from being considered unattainable up to now, they need an exasperated technology, long planning and realization times, huge funding, but above all visionary minds. It is essential that the future choices on where and when to go are the result of a collective effort, which does not see only the industrially advanced countries as protagonists.
THE FUTURE OF LITERATURE, LANGUAGE AND ARTS
Masha Gessen , one of the most brilliant journalists on the international scene, signed by New Yorker and winner of the National Book Award 2017, tells, in a dialogue with the writer Wlodek Goldkorn , the new Russia, a nation that with a surprising reversal has gone from being the lighthouse of the left international model to become the exemplary model, in America and in Europe, of conservative thought.
How can you have a love story during a conflict? How to escape from bombs when you find yourself orphaned? How to endure the torture of soldiers? The Palestinian poet and writer Mazen Maarouf , on stage with the writer Matteo Nucci , reveals how to merge the daily domestic life with the ruthless unreality of war violence to keep afloat, to resist in the only possible way: dreaming, joking, imagining the future.
From Palestine to Israel: the Israeli writer Dorit Rabinyan , in dialogue with the writer Alessandro Zaccuri , reflects on the great obstacles, including interreligious dialogue, which stand in the way of achieving political stability and the interruption of the fratricidal war between Israel and Palestine. Is peaceful coexistence possible between peoples at war for generations? What are the roads currently open to tomorrow?
Today, technology is constantly changing: internet and social media profoundly change our ways of communicating and thinking, with a speed that history has never known. What does this mean for reading? Is it really at risk of extinction or will it take new forms? Lina Bolzoni , writer and member of the Accademia dei Lincei and British Academy, remembers that - from Petrarca to Machiavelli, from Tasso in Montaigne - reading is a personal encounter, a dialogue with authors beyond the barriers of time.
The linguist Andrea Moro shows that the rules of language are not arbitrary conventions, but are related to the neurobiological architecture of the brain: not there are therefore better languages than others, musical languages or tuneful languages, nor does a human being see the world differently depending on the language he speaks, as if it were a filter for the senses and the reasoning.
Poetry is the future of the word, because it is a word that always looks to the future. Two of the most recognizable voices of current Italian literature in verse converse around this statement, Antonella Anedda and Alessandro Fo , prompted by the questions of the writer Alessandro Zaccuri .
Contemporary artistic production has become increasingly polarized in a relationship between the city and the periphery. But in the light of recent environmental emergencies and new digital ubiquity, how do artistic interventions and practices diversify? The art historian Ilaria Bonacossa and the artist Massimo Bartolini investigate the ongoing transformations of the current cultural and productive landscape.
Achilles and Odysseus represent, according to the ancients, two opposing character models: the first spontaneous and direct, the second deceitful, prudent, with tortuous thoughts. Achilles is constantly thrown into the present, while Odysseus never stops planning for the future, observes the writer Matteo Nucci .
The Atelier dell'Errore , a visual and performing arts laboratory designed by the artist Luca Santiago Mora for the children's neuropsychiatry departments in Reggio Emilia and Bergamo, also participates in the festival years proved to be a valid complement to the clinical activity. Mora accompanies some of the kids who tell about the animals of the future, the prototypes of a zoology that we won't have time to know but that, inexorably, are already on their way, towards Terra.
Artificial Intelligence, even if already present in our lives, raises some legitimate concerns: the use of data, possible discrimination, alignment with human values, transparency, the need to understand how AI takes decisions, the impact on the world of work. Francesca Rossi , IBM's global leader in Artificial Intelligence, says it is our responsibility to plan the future we want by identifying for AI's ethical guidelines that guide it in beneficial directions for individuals, society, and the environment.
The scientist Barbara Mazzolai , director of the IIT Center for MicroBioRobotics in Pontedera and in the international ranking of the most brilliant women in robotics, invented the plantoid, first robot inspired by the world of plants that can be used in many areas, from space exploration to environmental monitoring. In Sarzana he tells why, to be able to imagine an eco-sustainable future, it is necessary that biology and technology proceed together to investigate the mysteries of nature.
What we eat affects our health: science is certain of this. But which food model is most effective for staying healthy and living long is a topic of discussion and often confusion; the chemist Dario Bressanini and the nutritionist Lucilla Titta of the European Institute of Oncology in Milan warns against the fads of food fashions, which offer simple solutions, but do not rest on solid scientific foundations.
The neuropsychiatrist and neuroscientist Edward Bullmore from the University of Cambridge explains the connection between inflammation and depression, demonstrating how and why the inflammation can be among the causes of depression. What known risk factors, such as social stress, can cause inflammation? In what future perspective will new anti-inflammatory medicines be used to treat depression?
The idea of evil has distant origins, has been integrated with the history of man on Earth, but today, he observes Valter Tucci , director of the genetics laboratory and epigenetic of IIT behavior, we have the tools to treat evil as a biological phenomenon. We can identify specific portions of DNA that influence our worst actions: knowing behavioral biology is a priority in the future of our species.
Now that all the peaks have been climbed and the poles explored, what new goals and what challenges await the pioneers of the future? The Swedish mathematics, physics and glaciologist answer this question Monica Kristensen , one of the most famous North European polar explorers and first woman to receive the gold medal of the Royal Geographical Society. Today there are mysteries to be solved - such as the reconstruction of the tragic fate of the great polar hero Roald Amundsen, who disappeared in an attempt to find the crew of the Italy airship - entire areas below the oceans yet to be explored and the Space to be investigated, with hope to find other life forms: a dream destined for future explorers.
"In search of immortality" is the title of the meeting with the writer, photographer and director Alberto Giuliani , who accompanies the public on a journey into the future, to the discovery of the science that hopes to overcome death: from NASA astronauts who simulate life on Mars to genomic research in China, from human cryopreservation and cloning laboratories to humanoid robot fathers.
THE FUTURE OF THE ENVIRONMENT
Global warming, deforestation, wild urbanization and the indiscriminate exploitation of resources, fueled by our current development and consumption patterns, have already reduced the biodiversity of a third. The philosopher of science Telmo Pievani launches a challenge: try to imagine what the Earth would be like without the pervasive presence of man, to rediscover awareness of our fragility.
Fragments of Extinction is a project by the interdisciplinary artist, composer and sound engineer David Monacchi , who is conducting research on the heritage of the sounds of primary equatorial forests. It collects recordings that return, fixing it over time, the sound language of a planet that rolls towards the sixth extinction, to increase public ecological awareness and hope to save as many ecosystems as possible. The meeting is completed by the screening of the film of Monacchi
Dusk Chorus .
Throughout its history, the climate of our planet has gone through great changes, alternating global glaciations with much warmer periods, while maintaining a substantial stability that has allowed the presence of life for at least three and a half billion years. What changes have occurred in the past and how do they affect the natural environment and society? And above all, what kind of climate do we expect in the future? On the stage of the festival, to propose solutions to these pressing questions, rooms Antonello Provenzale , director of the Institute of Geosciences and Georesources of the CNR.
A few decades ago the future was represented by plastic, which quickly replaced traditional materials and contributed decisively to create new markets, revolutionizing the way we live and consume. Today, however, we are all concerned about environmental problems related to its production, its use and its disposal: can bioplastics be an effective solution for our future? The chemist Marco Ortenzi and the biologist Marco Parolini are compared on the subject.
In recent decades, trends have been observed such as the abandonment of millions of hectares of rural areas, problems of pollution and global warming, poor quality and quantity of food resources. It is therefore necessary, explains the president of the Scientific Committee of the FAO World Program on Agricultural Heritage Mauro Agnoletti , a new vision that achieves a balance between urban and rural areas, also for cope with population growth. Italy can play an important role by proposing its culture in terms of the quality of agri-food products and the landscape and environmental heritage.
THE FUTURE OF THE COMPANY AND THE INDIVIDUAL
The Festival of the Mind investigates the most current questions of the present and the future: we could not miss a reflection on the over 70 million refugees and displaced people, who often move along with economic migrants along routes controlled by traffickers or through conflict zones . Poverty, inequalities and climate change make the situation even more complex. Filippo Grandi , United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees since 2016, answers the most pressing questions: it is possible to offer solutions to these phenomena in a concrete, organized and respectful way of international law? Is it possible to talk about refugees without the speech being exploited by politics? How to respond to the forced exodus of millions of people? Does solidarity still exist?
Exactly thirty years ago the Berlin Wall fell and, on its rubble, the "end of history" was naively celebrated, with the triumph of liberal democracies and capitalism, according to a progress considered linear and without contradictions. But now we seem to lean on a new break in the story, observes the director of Censis Massimiliano Valerii . When history gets back on the road it echoes the clash of weapons: how will we be in the future, in thirty years?
Bertrand Badré , which was managing director of the World Bank and World Bank Group Chief , claims that finance is not an enemy because it is not in itself neither good nor bad. It is a tool, the most powerful of the mechanical forces that when it goes the wrong way produces ruinous results but can benefit everyone if controlled and managed responsibly.
The sociologist Stefano Laffi explains how to help a generation rewrite the future. Speaking with pessimism about the crisis provokes fear, disenchantment and cynicism in young people; taking refuge in the celebration of ancient glories, on the other hand, serves no purpose at a concrete level. What to do? It is necessary to break the blackmail of the present, to learn to imagine, to exercise the possible instead of the existing one.
The architect and engineer Carlo Ratti - considered by Wired one of the 50 people who will change the world, co-chairman of the World Economic Forum Global Future Council on Cities and Urbanization and special advisor at the European Commission on digital and smart cities - explains today's great revolution in architecture and of design, which sees an increasingly affirmed participatory and collaborative design model with ideas developed from below, rather than imposed from above.
Love resists time and would never die. But isn't the love that can last a love impossible? The psychoanalyst Massimo Recalcati enters the labyrinth of love life and investigates the miracle of love, the most mysterious feeling of all.
From modern religious wars to current fundamentalist regurgitations, dialogue between faiths has always been fraught with difficulties, recalls the philosopher of religion Roberto Celada Ballanti . Today multiculturalism imposes relationships between ethnic groups, visions of the world and religions, determining comparisons - which often become clashes - and globalization redesigns the planetary structures: we need a dialogic paradigm that goes beyond the concept of tolerance, inadequate to face the challenges of the third millennium.
The epistemologist Luigina Mortari emphasizes how, with coming to the world, we are called to the ontological responsibility of taking care of life. Since human beings are not given sovereignty over their experience but are always dependent on others, taking life to heart can only be brought up to date in taking care of yourself, others and the world.
The three appointments with the historian Alessandro Barbero are highly anticipated, as it closes each of the festival evenings with its lectures in Piazza Matteotti. The cycle this year is dedicated to popular uprisings in the Middle Ages, which changed the course of history. On Friday we talk about the Jacques , the peasants of the Île-de-France, who, in the mid-1300s, due to the continuous defeats that the French nobles reported in the war of the One hundred years, they rebelled against the duty to keep them with their work. Saturday is the turn of the Florentine Ciompi, who in 1378 occupied the city squares to reaffirm their right to be directly involved in the city government. It closes on Sunday with the revolt of the English peasants of 1381, the last to be freed, in Europe, from serfdom.
There is no invention that is not also the result of the visions that others have had before us: from Magellan to Mozart, from Gabriel García Márquez to Joseph Conrad, from Albert Einstein to Jimi Hendrix, every new creation is the complex product of the intuitions that preceded it. Is it possible to find a curve that connects those points and indicates the trajectory of the future? They answer this question, in a special meeting designed for the festival, Lorenzo Jovanotti and Paolo Giordano .
The actor Umberto Orsini , who has been on the stage for sixty years and has worked with Fellini, Visconti, Zeffirelli and Ronconi, always thinks of theater as a an eternal present, like a future that is built daring. This is explained in the dialogue with the writer Paolo Di Paolo , while he retraces his career and thinks about how the future is created on stage: in the choice of texts, in the interpretation , in dialogue with the audience and in the construction of the public.
A preview for the audience of the Festival della Mente, the director Raphael Tobia Vogel brings Marjorie Prime , a text that explores the relationship between memory and identity, written by the playwright Jordan Harrison - finalist at the 2015 Pulitzer Prize - and produced by the Teatro Franco Parenti. If there were among us the Prime , holograms of loved ones who passed away, would we be able to relate to them as if they were the original? Can artificial intelligence satisfy our clearest needs and our most intimate desires and be used to defeat loneliness or help the human being to know each other better?
If we had the opportunity, how would we decide to reconstruct our past and what would we decide to forget? On stage the actors Ivana Monti , Francesco Sferrazza Pope , Elena Lietti and Pietro Micci .
The Bandakadabra , fanciful formation of wind and percussion, engages in a comedy-teatral-musical show with vaguely surreal and Dadaist tones, ranging from western atmospheres and from the soundtracks of Ennio Morricone to the Beatles songs, becoming an opportunity to ironically reflect on the toxicity of smartphones and on the unfortunate love life of musicians of "failure".
Music, theater and literature live on time and time, but know how to overturn their perception.
Beatrice Venezi , one of the youngest conductors in Europe, meets the actor Gioele Dix : together with the Soloists of Milano Classica, compare their most beloved artists and try to imagine a future for their profession.
Two sound explorers, the improvising pianist and composer Cesare Picco and the musician and dj Alessio Bertallot give life, on stage, to a special journey through the iconic tracks of dj culture, together with the evocative power of the piano, to create a kaleidoscopic new world of sounds.
Polar exploration is the theme of the meeting with the historian Paolo Colombo and the artist Michele Tranquillini , who retrace the story of Ernest Henry Shackleton and his Antarctic crossover venture. The words of Colombo and the watercolors designed by Tranquillini bring this adventure to life and answer an important question: what does it mean to be a hero?

Taking a page from Geekscape creator Jonathan London’s Comic-Con black book, here’s how to be the master of the universe at the world’s biggest geek gathering...
Words by Alethea Cho 21 Jul 2017
A long time ago (not that long actually) in a galaxy far away, (actually it's the one you are currently in) one man pursued his dream of getting paid to be a full-time geek. For Geekscape creator Jonathan London, what started as a fan podcast from his living room has exploded—like a “BAM!” comic bubble—into a nerd empire with his very own online magazine. Out of this passion for illustrated storytelling, he landed himself a deal to pen Miami Vice, the comic book reboot based on the classic 80s TV series.

Miami Vice reboot blasting on the scene
Since then, Jonathan has become a San Diego Comic-Con savant with 13 years of experience (five times as a fan, eight as a vendor) under his proverbial shiny spandex belt. Over the years he’s seen a lot of change.
“There are way more women attending in recent years and I think the male fans are better for it. There is more diversity coming back into the types of comics that are being published, it’s not just superheroes anymore. Looking back to the earlier days and all you would see is hyper-sexualized women with tiny waists and huge chests, now we have characters like Squirrel Girl,” says Jonathan.

With the 48th San Diego Comic-Con upon us, the coolest geek we know lays out Comic-Con do’s and dont’s and even a workout to survive the zombie apocalypse …
Jonathan’s Comic-Con Survival Tips
1. Sleep. You’ll be on your feet all day and there is so much to see. Make sure you get enough sleep before you go and while you’re there or you’ll burn out early.
2. Bring a snack or pack food, food is expensive in and around the convention center, and sometimes you just won’t want to waste your time standing in line for it.
3. Bring Purell. There are so many people from all over the world crammed into one space—Con-Flu is very real.
4. Bring and drink lots of water.
5. Plan ahead but be flexible. It’s a lot like going to Disneyland. You aren’t going to be able to do it all, so plan out what you really want to see ahead of time, but don’t get upset if you miss something. There is so much going on; sometimes you just need to go with the flow.

Heroes and villians agree, bring a book. Image courtesy of @comicconhq
5 Comic-Con Dont’s
1. Don’t expect to park downtown. You’ll never find parking. Park outside and Uber in.
2. Don’t bring a lot with you. You’ll most likely end up with a lot of stuff by the end of the day and it will be a pain to carry anything extra around.
3. Don’t be a jerk. As strange as this sounds to say (like it should be common sense) but I have seen people pushing and fighting. It’s just not worth it. Keep a level head.
4. Don’t underestimate the lines. You’ll be in a lot of long lines, bring a book or just wait and watch the panels online, they are always available after.
5. Don’t burn yourself out in one day. There are parties and you’ll be there for long hours. Be prepared and pace yourself.

How is San Diego different from other Comic-Cons?
Jonathan London: All of the cons have different personalities. The New York Comic-Con has the best artists’ alley which is great for getting autographs. Stan Lee’s Comikaze is better for people who want a chance to meet and hang out with celebrities, but San Diego is the monster of all Cons. It’s different because it’s not just limited to one location. In New York or any of the other con locations, once you leave the convention center, it’s pretty much just back to normal, but in San Diego, the whole downtown is taken over by events, tents, and cosplay. Sometimes the convention center is the least-lively part. The whole city is overrun with fans. There is so much life, and excitement, it’s just different.

Advice for those who don’t like crowds but love comics?
JL: The Martin Luther King, Jr. Promenade Park behind the San Diego Convention Center is great a great spot to chill out. A lot of people camp out the night before, you have to be really dedicated to get into some of the events, sometimes there are giveaways in the panels, but most things you can catch up on oline after so don’t bother standing in line. Ultimately if you are not a fan, get the hell out of San Diego. You will not have a good time, it’s too in your face and there is no escaping it.

To cosplay or not to cosplay?
JL: I love seeing everyone’s costumes, but I don’t dress up myself. I’m all for it but it’s a lot to carry around, which is one reason why I don’t. My best advice is order stuff offline ahead of time, costume creation can be pricey. Most important thing to do is be creative—put your own twist on the design. There are always going to be a million Jabba's palace Princess Leia’s, but I'm the kind of guy who loves the Iron Man made completely out of toilet paper rolls. Be unique.

What's your pre-game Comic-Con workout look like?
JL: I think it’s important to stay in shape, especially considering the long standing hours and walking around you’ll be putting in. I am a part of November Project Los Angeles. We meet every Wednesday at 5:27 a.m. or 6:27 a.m. at the Hollywood Bowl and every Friday at 6:27 a.m. in different parts of the city for free workouts! It’s great because all my friends go and we are done in time for everyone to get to work. We try to accommodate every level—some people are training for marathons, some people are beginners or just trying to lose weight, there will always be people at your level and people to help you get the workout you want. I like to think of it as ‘getting in shape for when zombies happen.’

Your favorite comic books shops in Los Angeles?
JL: House of Secrets is my personal comic book store, I'm there the most. Amy and Eric are really knowledgeable and the store always has a lot of books stocked. If I’m missing anything for my collection it’s always the first place I look. Collector’s Paradise, in both Winnetka and Pasadena, are always run very well. Ed’s friends with a lot of creators so there are weekly signings and appearances, usually for whatever is released that week.

Earth 2 Comics in Sherman Oaks has a really enthusiastic staff. If there’s a big event book coming out, they sometimes do a midnight release party so it’s a great store to go to if you want to meet other fans. I visit The Comic Bug shops in either Culver City or Manhattan Beach for their owner Mike Wellman. Not only is he a comic book creator himself but he’s also one of the most enthusiastic guys I know and holds a lot of signings. Plus, he just loves comics and his customers. When a car drove through the front of his shop on release day a few years ago, he brought the comic books out and sold them in the parking lot!

Best places to “geek out” in LA?
JL: Barcades have really become popular and more common in recent years. There are a lot of great places to grab a drink and be a geek. There are even some board game bars around the city. Button Mash is one of my favorites, it has great Asian-fusion food and a really chill atmosphere. Meltdown Comics is the “cool” LA comic book store. It’s got a comedy club in the back (NerdMelt) and always hosts tabletop and roleplaying games. Plus they’ve got a huge selection of indie books, toys and zines. Every time I’m in there I see a celebrity.

House of Secrets is a nice spot because it is more open. You can hang out and read more easily there than most other comic-book shops. And Blastoff Comics is also a really good spot because it’s a smaller store that a lot of creators frequent.
You say there’s a comic books for everyone—even for Grandma Shirley?
JL: There are literally comic books based on everything. Start with what movies or genre of TV shows you like. Search by what interests you the most. Don’t feel like you have to go for superheroes. Most importantly, have fun and enjoy. Oh, and check out the Voltron reboot on Netflix, it’s intimidatingly good and that’s coming from someone who writes these things for a living.

If you could pick two superheroes to get together and have a super baby, who would you pick?
JL: I would like to see two smart, good people mate. Not Tony Stark, he’s kind of a jerk and would be a terrible father, not Batman either. I would want it to be two people who would make good parents. I guess I would chose Ray Palmer (Atom) and Storm. Then the kid would have a good balance of science and spirituality.

Snøhetta’s hotly anticipated submerged restaurant Under captures the imagination as part of a growing number of ever more ambitious and diverse underwater designs, says Stu Robarts

The concrete shell was cast in southern Norway. The building was constructed on a barge so that it could be lowered into the water
When what’s being billed as the ‘world’s largest underwater restaurant’ opens its doors this year, it will also be one of the most unusual. That’s because Snøhetta-designed Under won’t be welcoming guests with the tropical climes and fantastical seascapes of the Indian Ocean, but the rugged coastline of Lindesnes in Norway. Indeed, it’s the sea fauna and landscape of south Norway that Under is designed to celebrate.
“We had an ambitious and visionary client who wanted to build a restaurant underwater at the southernmost point of the Norwegian coastline,” explains Snøhetta project manager Rune Grasdal to CLADmag. “The Norwegian coast inhabits such beauty and the client’s ambition is to attract more people to experience the Norwegian nature and rough coastline up-close.”
The client – or rather clients, brothers Gaute and Stig Ubostad – actually approached Snøhetta with preliminary sketches at another nearby location. “We convinced them to build the restaurant a few hundred metres away, where the sea is actually rougher,” says Grasdal. “That meant moving the restaurant to have it directly out to the sea, but this makes a lot of sense, since Norway is a nation that is closely connected to the ocean, both culturally and economically. Under pays tribute to this legacy.
“In the beginning we spent a lot of time with designs that were too complicated, but we ended up doing things in a much more simple way. The building is a concrete tube that brings people from the land down to the sea and it’s a perfect harmony of the physical – the food – and the intellectual – the understanding and visualisation of marine life at Norway’s southernmost tip. Architecture is the key that brings these elements together.”
The building’s striking, auditorium-like form plunges below the waterline ready to showcase the rugged, submarine world to 80-100 guests at any given time. The view from the restaurant will be framed by a huge 11m x 4m acrylic window and “muted lighting” used to help stage the wildlife and seabed outside as they change through weather conditions and the seasons; Snøhetta consulted with marine biologists so as to avoid disturbing the sea-life as it goes about its business.
“The interior lighting is done in a very discreet way so we don’t get a reflection from the tables,” explains Grasdal.
“We used a sort of theatre approach to lighting, of course trying to hide the lights and being very careful with it. It will be possible to vary the strength of the light and also the colour to match the scenery outside the window.”
Guests will learn about the context of the site via info plaques along a trail leading up to the restaurant, providing a narrative about marine biodiversity and the Norwegian coast. When they arrive, they’ll enter at the uppermost of three levels, the “wardrobe area.” They’ll subsequently move down to a champagne bar bridging the waterline transition, both above and below. This will be emphasised by a tall window conveying the sense of depth and the space bathed in the subdued, coastal colours of shells, rocks and sand.
From the bar, guests will look down into the seabed-level restaurant, where tables will naturally be focused around the large window. Here, the aesthetic will blend darker blues and greens inspired by the seabed, seaweed and rough sea, with warm oak details helping to cultivate a cosy, intimate atmosphere. Oak will be used elsewhere too, contrasting the stark, concrete envelope of the building. A heat pump will harness the stable seabed temperature to heat and cool the building throughout the year.
The building itself will cover 600 sq m, weigh in at 1,500-2,000 tons and, at the restaurant level, sit five metres below the surface of the water. It was crucial that the final shape would be able to coexist with the force of the ocean, so the concrete shell is half a metre thick and the acrylic windows about 25 cm. A slightly curved shape allows the volume to better handle the pressure of the water and the impact of the waves, with the design said to be able to withstand a one-hundred-year wave occurrence.
The concrete shell of the restaurant was cast in the southern Norway city of Mandal and the building constructed on a barge so that it could be lowered into the sea when complete. That was in July 2018, at which point the structure was attached to steel rods to guide it as it was lowered to the seafloor.
Now in situ, it is designed to become a part of the marine environment, with the coarse concrete shell an ideal surface for mussels to cling onto. The building will become an artificial mussel reef, with the added benefit of the mussels purifying the seawater, thereby attracting more marine wildlife and giving guests a better view outside the restaurant.
In addition to serving guests a speciality menu of locally inspired dishes from both above and below the water when it opens its doors, Under will function as a research centre for marine life. Interdisciplinary research teams will study marine biology and fish behaviour, with researchers also working to optimise conditions for sea-life to thrive around the restaurant.
Feasting with fish
As unique as Under may be, it’s by no means the only restaurant of its kind. As you might expect, though, underwater restaurants are most famously found where the views are more paradisiacal, with the Maldives having dived in some years ago.
Claimed as the world’s first, Ithaa Undersea Restaurant at the Conrad Maldives resort opened in 2005. Like Under, it sits 5 m below the surface of the water, but it has a much smaller footprint. It also uses an arched design that is relatively simple to engineer and provides great strength against water pressure.
The 5.8 undersea restaurant at Hurawalhi Maldives uses the same arched design as Ithaa, but is a little larger and sits lower at 5.8 m below the surface of the water, hence the name.
Although pioneering in their own way, these early underwater restaurant designs were led by function, limited in the extent to which their form could really wow.
More recent, more ambitious and deeper is the Subsix restaurant at the Niyama Private Islands resort, also in the Maldives. Originally opened in 2012 as the “world’s first underwater nightclub” and repurposed in 2015, Subsix sits 500m off the coast; guests are whisked over to it by speedboat. The building, part above and part below the water’s surface, boasts an underwater eating area more in-the-round that under-arch, with a sumptuous interior and floor-to-ceiling windows that look out to the sea-life of the Indian Ocean.
Sleeping with fish
The natural progression from underwater eating is, of course, to underwater sleeping – and, naturally, the Maldives has a toe in the water here too. Part of the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island resort along with the Ithaa restaurant, the Muraka opened its doors in November 2018 and is, again, said to be the first of its kind in the world, counting a two-level, above-and-below-the-surface residence as part of its offer. Long gone is the perfunctory arch: along with typical above sea-level spaces, guests have the run of an undersea bedroom, living space and bathroom.
Needless to say, where there’s extravagant innovation, there’s Dubai. Specifically, the Atlantis Dubai, where guests can stay in 165-sq m underwater suites, the floor-to-ceiling windows of which provide close-up views of all manner of sea-creature – but not the sea itself. The suites are part of the Ambassador Lagoon aquarium, bringing 65,000 marine inhabitants to its guests, rather than taking its guests to the ocean.
More conventional and also hailing from Dubai is the Kleindienst Group’s Floating Seahorse. The partially submerged floating homes provide over 370sq m of floor space across three levels, are kitted out with state-of-the-art technology and can be configured based on how the buyer chooses to use their underwater space.
The Underwater Room at the Manta Resort in Pemba Island, Tanzania, is a similar contraption. Part of an otherwise unassuming hardwood floating structure, the lowermost of three levels is a bedroom submerged in the waters of a marine conservation area.
Dreaming with fish
Not all underwater designs are so perfunctory; some are meritably ambitious and others outlandishly conceptual. Nemo’s Garden, developed by OceanReef, is less a building and more an underwater farm. Comprising six air-filled pods anchored off the Italian coast, the structure is used for experimental underwater farming, which provides a closed ecosystem to protect crops from parasites, eliminates the need for pesticides and offers an endless supply of water.
Soon to move off the drawing board, meanwhile, is Deep Ocean Technology’s (DOT) Water Discus. After announcing the completion of its research phase in October 2018, the company plans to begin designing the first of its underwater hotels this year. Resembling two stacked discs – one above the water, one submerged – the size of the Water Discus can be adapted based on its location, according to DOT, with the company citing diameters of between 30 m and 60 m in its literature.
Another radical design set to come to fruition is Waterstudio’s Sea Tree. Best known for its floating homes, the firm was commissioned to design a layered tower that could rise out of the water to provide a greenery-drenched ecosystem for wildlife both above and below the surface. With funding now in place from an investor, studio founder Koen Olthuis tells CLADmag that he expects construction of the first Sea Tree to begin this year.
Finally, and most imaginative of all, is the Ocean Spiral. Destined never to venture past the conceptual, the design explores an idea for an underwater city of the future, spiralling downwards from the surface of the water to its anchor at the seabed. Combining accommodation, farming, power generation and gondola transport, the concept imagines making use of the ocean’s potential for provision of food and water, energy generation, CO2 processing and resource harvesting.

5 Things to Do on the C&O Canal in the Winter
By Callie Fisburn | Blog, Canal Quarters, Explore Your Canal, Nature, Planning Your Visit, Things to Do, Towns and Communities, Uncategorized
To some of us, winter is a time to stay indoors by the fire. But why would you stay indoors when the C&O Canal National Historical Park offers some of the most scenic areas to explore during the winter months? So put on some warm clothes and come experience the C&O Canal as a winter wonderland!
Become a 2020 Canal Pride Sponsor
By C&O Canal Trust | Uncategorized
We may still be in the depths of winter, but planning is already underway for our Canal Pride Days volunteer events in the spring. Sponsoring Canal Pride is a great way for your business or family to contribute to preservation and beautification projects in the Park. Our sponsors provide the money that make Canal Pride possible. In 2019, our volunteers completed over 7,000 hours of service in the Park, valued at $204,131. Read More

C&O Canal Park Updates: July 2019
By Ellen Kinzer | Uncategorized
Resurfaced Towpath- C&O Canal Trust
The first 5-mile section of towpath resurfacing between Edwards Ferry and Whites Ferry is complete and work is now underway on the stretch between Brunswick and Harpers Ferry. The Park anticipates completing rehabilitation of the towpath all the way to Packhorse Ford near the Shepherdstown Bridge this year. Horseback riders are asked to stay off the newly-resurfaced sections for about three weeks to give the new stone dust surface time to harden.
Locks 3 & 4 Project (Georgetown)
Fletchers Cove- Carole Lewis Anderson
Re-watering of the canal between Georgetown and Fletchers Cove is imminent! A small section of the canal will remain dry to facilitate replacement of the 31st Street bridge by the District of Columbia. Water will be channeled through the dry area via a pipe.
Locks 5-22 Project
Lockhouse 22 by Denise Schleckser
Work is close to complete on the water management structures between Lock 5 (Fletchers Cove) to Lock 22 (Violettes Lock/Inlet Lock 2). The Park has re-watered the canal from Pennyfield to Violettes Lock, and will re-watering from Great Falls to Pennyfield once work is finished on Lock 19 in July, at which time the Charles F. Mercer boat operation will resume.
Conococheague Aqueduct
Monocacy Aqueduct- C&O Canal Trust
Construction on the rehabilitated aqueduct is complete. Contractors are currently waiting for the newly-poured concrete to cure before applying brown stain to the inner wall, built to look like wood to replicate the “fix” to the aqueduct following the collapse of the wall of the aqueduct in 1922. Following water testing, the aqueduct will be officially re-watered, hopefully in July. The ribbon-cutting for the project is expected to take place sometime in August.
Paw Paw Tunnel Rock Scaling Project
Paw Paw Tunnel by Greg Wilson
Rock scaling of the cliff above the towpath on the upriver end of the tunnel will begin as soon as the final engineering design is complete. Hikers and bikers will be able to continue to use the tunnel once the work begins, with flaggers controlling tunnel traffic when necessary.
An Owl Rescue at the C&O Canal
You may have seen this on our Facebook page:
A baby barred owl, sitting in water.
Photographer- Sandy Rosenblatt
We received this adorable photo and the accompanying story through our Facebook photo contest and we are so happy that Sandy thought to share her experience with us!
Now that the contest is over and the winner is announced (this photo in fact! Congrats Sandy Rosenblatt!), we can share all the details!
Sandy was walking along the towpath by Lock 8 in Cabin John, MD and turned to take a dirt trail down to the river. Along the way, she came upon a woman asking for help and she was led to where this barred owlet was sitting in the water. The woman explained that she didn’t know how to help but knew that something needed to be done. Together, they gently took the owlet out of the water and began to warm it up in Sandy’s jacket. After calling animal control, they sat with the owl, keeping it warm and comforting it. The owlet was taken to Owl Moon Raptor Center where they confirmed that although it was uninjured, it was still too young to be able to fly and would likely not have survived the night in the chilly waters. They guessed that he fell into the water and washed downstream.

Remember, don’t touch wildlife unless you have spoken with a licensed wildlife rehabilitation specialist. Many times, the baby animal is fine and the parents are close by or are returning soon! Fawns can be left for hours while their mothers go out and forage. Fledgling birds (those that have feathers), may be found out of their nest and look lost, but their parents are normally within earshot and are feeding them throughout the day.

Rich Desrosiers: YMCA of Central Stark County embarks on special year
By Rich DesrosiersExecutive Editor
It’s fun to stay at the YMCA.
The Village People have been telling you that since 1978.
It’s fun to work at the YMCA, too.
I can tell you that, as can one of our area’s state
lawmakers. He and I share a common experience: minimum-wage jobs as teenagers at our hometown YMCAs.
“It was a great job,” state Sen. Scott Oelslager said in recollecting his time at the Y in Warren, Pennsylvania.
“I learned the discipline of work and working with people, (how to) take responsibility, job skills and refereeing disputes.
“It was a wonderful experience for me.”
Oelslager’s experience mirrored my own. After a very brief orientation (think: minutes), we suddenly were holding the building’s keys “and basically running the place,” he recalled with a laugh.
He worked the front desk on Saturday mornings, checking in members there to use the pool or game room. I worked after school as both a locker room attendant and weight room supervisor. No real training. No backup. Two boys probably both praying that no one keeled over on their watch.
We survived, and the members did, too. Even the Aussie who came into the Lorain Y locker room one evening to weigh himself. Eyeing the scale with a perplexed look, I asked if the reading seemed off to him. He wasn’t sure, he said. The scale gave him his weight in pounds. Problem was, he knew his weight in stones — yes, stones — and asked if I could do the conversion for him.
I could, after a call to our local library, on a rotary phone, to get the formula. (Something that takes 20 seconds on the Internet now.) I assured the guy, who in my memory looked like someone from ESPN’s “World’s Strongest Man” competition, that he was, indeed, right at 16 stones. I’m pretty sure I was going to tell him anything he wanted to hear.
That memory and other stories resurfaced when Tim Shetzer, CEO of the YMCA of Central Stark County, visited recently to share memorabilia and ideas as the organization embarks on a special year.
The YMCA of Central Stark County traces its roots to April 16, 1866. It will celebrate its 150-year history throughout 2016 with several events, including a gala on the anniversary date and special recognition each month, starting today, of the system’s branch facilities.
Literature from 1916 touting the Y in its 50th year is filled with thoughts that still ring true.
“That boy of yours presents the biggest problem you will ever be compelled to solve.” I’ll vouch for that. Twice.
“After school hours are perplexing hours for the boy unless he is a member of the Association.” Idle hands remain the devil’s workshop.
These days, our local Y system boasts nearly 50,000 members, the most in its history, who are anything but idle. They enjoy programs for every age group at every skill level in every corner of the county. An additional 20,000 or so county residents who aren’t full members also participate and take advantage of such Y offerings as camps and family fun days, like one earlier this month at the Wm. McKinley Presidential Library and Museum that helped to kick off the 150th celebration year.
Another local lawmaker with fond memories of his local Y emphasized that the organization offers much more than physical activities.
Participation at the YMCA “was a way to build character and see the diversity of our society,” said Kirk Schuring, who for several years was an almost daily visitor to the downtown Canton facility. “You could be with judges and prominent attorneys and business people one moment, and folks who are economically disadvantaged the next.
“When you are there, you are all one in the same; there are no barriers,” Schuring said. “You are blind to color, race, creed. There’s a real esprit-de-corps among members. We’re all interested in the betterment of Canton and Stark County as a whole.”
Throughout 2016, join in the celebration of 150 years of the Y serving as a vital gathering place in our community — a place where it’s fun to stay, fun to work and fun to play.

Outstanding undergraduates from Thammasat University in Thailand will pursue postgraduate study at Cardiff University thanks to a memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the two institutions.
The MoU, confirmed by Professor Anthony Beresford from Cardiff Business School and Dr Ruth Banomyong from Thammasat University, will enable international student exchange and collaborative research and teaching.
Professor Beresford said: “Having supervised Ruth during his PhD study at Cardiff, I’ve witnessed Thammasat’s/Thailand’s student excellence first-hand.
“And so I’m very much looking forward to welcoming a new cohort of Thai graduates under this MoU...”
“I know they will prosper, just as Ruth did, with access to our outstanding postgraduate support, resources and facilities.”
Professor Anthony Beresford ,
Dr Banomyong is now an Assistant Professor at Thammasat University and one of the foremost logistics development experts in Southeast Asia.
Common areas of interest
His research in collaboration with Professor Beresford is ongoing and was recognised at the British Council’s Alumni Awards earlier this year.
Under the terms of the MoU, their research will continue to focus on common areas of interest including international change and the facilitation of new markets across the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
While in Thailand, Professor Beresford also delivered lectures at Bangkok University and the University of the Thai Chamber of Commerce.
His presentations entitled “Automotive parts exports from China to Germany: by sea or by rail?” and “Port Management and International Freight Transport” showcased the global focus of his research.
Following the signing of the MoU, discussions are already underway for academic staff from Cardiff Business School to teach alongside their Thai counterparts on a new programme Thammasat University aims to launch next year.
Spend time abroad
If you are a current student, you can study, work or volunteer abroad through our Global Opportunities scheme.

With more than one million sq. ft. of exhibit space, nearly 1,000 of the latest cars, trucks and SUVs, three indoor test tracks and a wide variety of interactive exhibits, there are plenty of memories to make and photos to share at the nation’s largest auto show.
“As the place to connect with consumers, Chicago is perfectly positioned to harness the power of its crowds and incentive attendees for sharing their show experience via social media,” said Chicago Auto Show General Manager David Sloan.
A leader in social media engagement, in 2017, the Chicago Auto Show generated 45 million hashtag impressions, continued as the No. 1 national trend on Twitter during its Media Preview and garnered 1.1 million views of its Snapchat event geofilter.
For 2018, show organizers have a robust lineup of social media and interactive fun in store for attendees, including:

Proposed Illinois law would require sex education programs to focus more on consent
Apr 04, 2019 | 12:25 PM
Employees and volunteers dismantle exhibits at the Robert Crown Center for Health Education in Hinsdale on Jan. 26, 2018. The center closed to convert to a mobile model and now travels to schools to provide sex education, including lessons on consent. (Zbigniew Bzdak/Chicago Tribune)
Teaching “no means no” in sex education isn’t enough, according to a proposal in the Illinois legislature that would require Illinois schools that offer sex education to provide more thorough lessons on the issue of consent.
Lawmakers in the Illinois House on Thursday passed a bill that offers a more nuanced definition of consent in sex education programs for sixth- through 12th-graders in public schools.
Sex education is not mandated by law in Illinois, but schools that have such programs must include certain themes, like the issue of consent.
But the current law does not define consent, nor specify what instruction about it should include, said state Rep. Ann Williams, D-Chicago, main sponsor of the bill, which now moves on to the Senate.
“Consent is much more complex a topic than ‘no means no,’” she said. “It looks a lot different if someone is in a position of trust and authority ... or if there is alcohol or drugs.”
If passed, schools would have to include several points in their teachings on consent, such as explaining that people cannot consent if they are intoxicated or asleep. The text of the bill specifies that “consent is a freely given agreement to sexual activity” and that “consent to one particular sexual activity does not constitute consent to other types of sexual activities.”
The bill goes on to specify what should not be mistaken for consent, such as what someone is wearing, and that consent to past sexual activity does not mean consent to future sexual activity.
Williams said she spoke with social service organizations and survivors of sexual assault when drafting the legislation, which would leave it up to each district to develop its own curriculum
In the wake of the modern #MeToo movement, educators and legislators around the country are linking lessons on consent to sex education in order to strengthen sexual assault prevention efforts. This has led to similar laws passed in other states, said Jennifer Driver, state policy director for the Sexuality Information and Education Council for the United States, a Washington-based organization that offers fact-based sexual education resources.
“I think too often young people were learning only about” pregnancy and STD prevention, Driver said. “Prevention only covers a small amount of what they need. Young people really need to learn about consent and healthy relationships,” said Driver, adding that research supports this tactic.
Driver said she appreciated that the Illinois legislation addresses issues including that what someone is wearing does not play into consent. “For a long time, we’ve done a lot of victim blaming,” she said. “This shifts the focus, and it reinforces that it’s not your fault.”
These lessons are essential at an early age, even as young as kindergarten, said Dan Rice, director of training at Answer, a Rutgers University organization that provides sex education resources.
Young children can learn about boundaries outside the context of sexual activity, he said. Answer provides programs that use sports analogies for younger children, he said. They learn things like: “Just because a person agrees to play one sport doesn’t mean they will play more than one,” Rice said. “And, they have the right to change their mind.”
For kindergartners, lessons can revolve around personal boundaries — that they don’t have to hug anyone and that you need permission to hug, Rice added. “These are basic concepts even a kindergarten child can understand.”
Rice said these conversations should come up before sixth grade — the earliest it’s required in the Illinois bill — and that although these laws are a positive step, they often don’t go far enough in providing training for teachers or oversight to make sure districts comply.
“It really depends on how the school district takes this and really runs with it,” he said.
The Robert Crown Center for Health Education, based in Hinsdale, travels to more than 600 Chicago-area schools to provide sex education. Last year, it closed its center that hosted field trips to convert to a mobile model.
Now the center is also adapting to the #MeToo era, adding lessons on consent to its programs, said Katie Gallagher, director of education. The programs typically target fourth- through eighth-graders.
“We are weaving in some basic understanding on consent as early as fourth grade ... in different terms they understand, in everyday situations,” she said, adding that consent is not discussed in sexual terms until older grades.
“No means no doesn’t explain it all,” she said. “What does yes mean? (Kids may wonder) is yes because you wore a certain outfit? Is yes because she let me hold her hand?”

Gallagher said not only are consent lessons now typically more nuanced, but also more often discussed.

Alfie Brown: Divorced from Reality (and My Wife)
Note: This review is from 2014
Review by Steve Bennett
No one could accuse Alfie Brown of going for the easy laugh; in fact much of this show is downright difficult, with material about paedophilia, euthanasia, the word ‘nigger’, and mental illness, to cover but four bases. Mere mention of these hot topics can trigger a reflex of revulsion, but even taken in the context he’s careful to lay down these routines can still be uncomfortable – if not sometimes gruelling – to hear.
In many ways he’s a modern-day Lenny Bruce; tackling notions that the mainstream is never going to touch, yet not always able to chart a safe passage through the choppy waters to laughter firma. He rather revels in an audience’s discomfort, partly out of pure bloody-minded mischief, and partly out of thinking that he must be on to something if he’s challenging their unthinkingly received values in this way.
Controversy is by no means the entire show, but the more contentious routines are the ones that will persist, especially his discussion about the age of consent, which is always going to be a difficult sell. By the time we get to this point, his early gambit about Game Of Thrones serving up rape as entertainment seems positively jaunty in retrospect. ‘Saying something real,’ is a crucial mantra for this intense comedian with a virulent hatred of small-talk, which he mocks savagely and hilariously.
Questions of taste have been concerning him for a while, not least after dying in front of an audience that slathered at the prospect of a forthcoming appearance Roy Chubby Brown. It comes as no surprise to learn that Brown – the non-Chubby one – is firmly against the lad culture, which he takes down with an attitude and insight that many less skilled antilad comics lack.
That’s not to say he hasn’t got dick jokes, it’s just that they come from a unique new angle, as almost all his material does. And as the title suggests, Brown also lays down some aspects of his own life, such as the failed marriage and subsequent one-night stands, for the same uncompromising dissection as the social issues he so boldly tackles.
Charismatic and fiercely intelligent, Brown is frequently very funny, with a varied arsenal that ranges from surreal asides to imaginative leaps of logic. But he also gets on his soapbox for causes audiences are understandably reluctant to rally around, making him too alternative even for Stewart Lee’s Alternative Comedy Experience, by his own account.
The mixed bag makes it is hard to unequivocally recommend Divorced From Reality (which is overlong, too, at least in preview) even though Brown remains one of our more intriguing and original comic voices, producing a show that’s fascinating even when it’s not funny.

DENVER — The union representing Colorado grocery store workers has reached a tentative deal to avoid a strike at King Soopers and City Market stores.
The United Food and Commercial Workers Local 7 said Monday that the deal was reached with the local subsidiary of Ohio-based Kroger after marathon talks over the weekend. It still must be approved by workers.
King Soopers and City Market called the deal good news for their "associates, customers and communities."
It comes two weeks after workers voted to authorize a strike after talks broke down.
In a summary of the deal, the union said it included wage increases for all workers, affordable health care and additional pension contributions.
King Soopers and City Market employ about 23,000 workers statewide and the union represents about 12,000 of them.

NYC Buddhists March for our Lives
On Saturday, March 24th, Compassion NYC partnered with Buddhist Action Coalition to mobilize an inter-sangha contingent for the March for our Lives. This was BAC’s inaugural event. Over 75 New York City area Buddhists joined together to protest gun violence in our schools, churches, theaters–in our society as a whole. With the Buddhist emphasis on ahimsa, or non-harm, the March for our Lives was an obvious action in which to participate. In addition to ahimsa, Buddhists following the Noble Eightfold Path understand that guns, and weaponry in general, are antithetical to Right Livelihood, and therefore, moral virtue, or sila.
Part of sila, or moral virtue, is refraining from causing harm. Engaged Buddhists believe that it goes further, and includes causing good, or engaging in activities that are helpful and beneficial to other beings. This sila expressed as doing good is a belief shared by many Buddhists and Buddhist organizations, including Compassion NYC and Buddhist Action Coalition.
Roshi Enkyo O ‘Hara, Abbot of Village Zendo, asks, “Why would Buddhists go to the March for our Lives? Guns really have only one use: to harm other beings. The Buddhist teaching is to turn away from causing harm, and to heal and support all beings. That’s why we support strict regulations and an end to the monetization of lethal weapons.” There are those who argue that Americans have a right to own and use guns. Buddhists would rather speak on behalf of living beings who have a right to live, and those who were denied that right through the use of guns.
Tanya Bonner, Willie Mukei, James Lynch and Sue Ann Molinell and others join the march
Elijah Coles Brown, a student activist from Richmond, VA, attended the march in Washington, D.C., to speak on these human rights, and to speak for those who are no longer able to do so. Says Brown, “I am also here to represent those who didn’t get justice. Those like Trayvon Martin, those like Eric Garner, those like Michael Brown. Those that have already been through the shootings that have already been experienced every day in this nation.”
Emphasizing the importance of Buddhists standing up for non-harm, Jon Aaron, a teacher from New York Insight, said that “It was wonderful to see such a strong contingent of the sanghas that are making up the Buddhist Action Coalition at today’s March. Taking a stand on any issue related to the Buddhist ethical precepts is essential for those in the Buddhist community and of course gun violence strikes at the core of non-harming. Many members of the NYI community are playing a leading role in the development of the Buddhist Action Coalition which I hope inspires others in the sangha to become actively engaged generic viagra from india.” His sentiment also recalls the emphasis the Buddha placed on sangha.
Rev. Greg Snyder, Laura O’ Loughlin, and members of Brooklyn Zen Center
Participating sanghas included New York Insight, Brooklyn Zen Center, Zen Center for Contemplative Care, Fire Lotus Temple, Village Zendo, Zen Mountain Monastery, and Won Buddhism of Manhattan. James Lynch, president of the Buddhist Council of New York also attended the March for our Lives.
Sanghas from many different traditions participated in the march, including New York Insight, from the Theravada tradition, and Brooklyn Zen Center, Zen Center for Contemplative Care, Fire Lotus Temple and Village Zendo, from the Zen traditions.

Covington Adds Four Partner Life Sciences Corporate Team
PDF Binder
Add to Binder
Word Document Binder
LONDON, May 16, 2011 — Covington & Burling LLP adds a top life sciences corporate team to its London office, further enhancing its comprehensive global life sciences practice. Covington is pleased to announce that Paul Claydon, Natalie Diep, James Gubbins and James Halstead are joining Covington & Burling LLP as partners. They complement Covington’s highly regarded London and Brussels-based teams and cement the firm’s position as a leading global life sciences firm.
Claydon, Diep, Gubbins and Halstead advise life sciences, technology and renewable energy industry clients on mergers and acquisitions, IPOs and follow-on financings, and private equity and venture capital transactions. The team has worked together for many years and enjoys a market-leading reputation for deals in the life sciences sector. From 2007 to 2010 the team was ranked first by Mergermarket for the number of UK Pharma M&A deals on which they advised and also achieved a top three ranking for the number of European Pharma M&A deals during the same period.
“The addition of this team is an important further step in our strategic growth in Europe,” said Timothy Hester, chair of Covington’s management committee. “They have a stellar reputation in both the life sciences and high tech sectors. They bring key capabilities and in-depth experience that will be a tremendous asset to our clients.”
Over the past few years the team has worked on a number of notable transactions including advising LSE-listed vaccine company Acambis plc on the £276 million recommended takeover offer from sanofi-aventis, advising AIM-listed IS Pharma plc on the recommended merger with Sinclair Pharma plc to create a fully integrated pan-European specialist pharmaceutical company, and advising Liberum Capital as nominated adviser and broker, on the AIM IPO and related US$80 million fundraising by HaloSource, Inc., a Seattle-based clean water and antimicrobial technology company.
“Covington is the leading global life sciences firm; quite simply, there could not be a better fit for our practice,” Mr. Claydon said.
“We have worked across the table from Covington and have always been impressed. Their leading regulatory and licensing practices are a unique asset and advantage to getting deals done. They are an important element of why we consider Covington to be the top life sciences firm globally,” Mr. Gubbins added.
Richard Kingham, co-chair of Covington's international life sciences practice, commented: “The addition of this team further enhances our ability to provide a comprehensive global service to our life sciences clients from both sides of the Atlantic.”
Over the past four years Covington has made several promotions to partner and made notable lateral additions to its London and Brussels teams including Robert Amaee from the SFO, an employment team led by Chris Walter, a competition team of Peter Camesasca, Lars Kjølbye and Damien Geradin in Brussels, Daniel Pavin for life sciences transactional, Steve Bond and Gaëtan Verhoosel for arbitration, Morag Peberdy for IP, Mike Kingston as head of the European corporate group, and Roger Enock as head of the London dispute resolution practice. Covington now has more than 100 fee earners in London and Brussels.
Covington is widely recognised as a leading life sciences international law firm with rankings in Chambers Global, Chambers UK, Chambers USA, Chambers Asia, Legal 500 UK, Legal 500 EMEA, Legal 500 USA and PLC, which voted Covington as the number one life sciences law firm in the world for four years in a row.

Abundance’s First IFISA Offer Already at 82% of its Goal for Swindon Solar Project
December 18, 2016 @ 10:00 am By Jessica Pham
Abundance Investment (formerly AbundanceGeneration) has been partnering with Swindon Chapel Farm Solar since early last month to offer individuals a way to invest in renewable energy. The Innovative Finance ISA (IFISA) option also offers folks looking for an alternative savings account an option to earn higher interest rates.
The Swindon Advertiser reported that the offering rapidly raised £700,000 (approximately $879K) of investment in its first four days. As of mid-December, with about a month and a half left in the fundraising, the Swindon Chapel Farm Solar has raised 82 percent of its goal, or about £2,025,000 (approximately $2.5 million). There is still a remaining £429,919 up for grabs (approximately $540K).
The internal rate of return (IRR) is six percent, which is higher than the two percent interest that Abundance was offering earlier in April for its IFISA plan before the rule changes.
Described as an “ethical investment platform”, Abundance is offering investors a piece of Swindon Chapel Farm Solar until January 20, 2017 in the UK’s “first green IFISA”.
The Guardian has described the Abundance-Swindon partnership as such;
“It is the result of a link-up between ethical investment platform Abundance and Swindon borough council, and will allow the public to invest directly in renewable energy projects, tax free. Those behind the scheme are holding out the prospect of a 6% return.”
This is the second Abundance-Swindon partnership. Abundance also partnered earlier this year with Swindon on the Common Farm Solar project. The Chapel Farm Solar project is the first IFISA offer on the Abundance platform though.
As with all investments, there are risks. The Abundance-Swindon partnership, however, has garnered praise from a few government officials. Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government Sajid Javid said;
“This is an excellent example of a local council working with the private sector to provide people with a means of investing in their local community and its infrastructure. I wish it every success.”
Councillor on the Swindon Borough Council Dale Heenan also said;
“I am proud Swindon is the home of the UK’s first green energy Isa following our very successful solar bond earlier this year.”
Prior to its Innovative Finance ISA offer approval earlier this year, one of the last projects that Abundance Investment offered to investors was Anesco, a “mixed technology” project also focused on renewable energy. Abundance’s list of funded projects can be found here.

HD DVD Runs Bowl Ad- But is the Game Over?
By Stephen Silver
Toshiba, as promised, ran a thirty-second spot during Super Bowl XLII Sunday night, for which it reportedly paid $2.7 million. The ad was for Toshiba’s own players, and was meant to dispell the notion that the format war has been decided to Blu-ray’s favor.
The ad features a group of fans watching a football game, before asking the question “what do you do when the game’s over?” The answer- watch movies in high-definition. Multiple action scenes, from such movies as Shrek and Transformers, then play, before a title card shows that the players are now available at Amazon.com, Best Buy, Circuit City and Wal*Mart, for $149.99.
The ad can be viewed in its entirely on YouTube, here.

Million-acre Argentinian estate for sale, vine potential in doubt
Adam Lechmere July 19, 2011
Estancia Punta del Agua
A one million-acre plot of virgin land is for sale in San Juan in Argentina – although there is some doubt as to its vine-growing potential.
Estate agents Savills are offering the 989,000 acre (400,000ha) Estancia Punta del Agua in San Juan for £6 per acre – £6m in total.
The Estancia is situated in the Valle del Rio Bermejo, a river valley fed by the Rio Bermejo and the Rio Huaco.
Savills says the land would be suitable for agriculture, as the estate has the two rivers running through it and 300 days of sunshine.
It would also be suitable for vines, government agronomists INTA (Instituto Nacional de Tecnologia Agropecuaria) said.
‘The climate is excellent for growing high-end red wines grapes because it has good temperature alternation between day and night,’ INTA said in a report, adding they thought ‘the slopes of the Sierras de Valle Fertil are promising, particularly with underground water or streams for growing high-end grapes and olives.’
Savills said, ‘With soil reports showing vast areas of silt soils, and the potential of tapping into one of the largest aquifers in Argentina, the Estancia needs an investor who understands agriculture and has the capital to invest after the purchase in a scheme of works to bring the land into line with 21st century farming techniques.’
One expert however suggested that there would not be nearly enough water to irrigate.
Alejandro Sejanovich, former vineyard director for renowned Argentinian producer Catena, and now a consultant winemaker and owner of the Manos Negras winery in San Juan, was sceptical.
‘You would need to do a water analysis as there can be problems with salinity. It is also a very warm area – you would need about 80,000 litres of water per day per hectare to grow grapes – that’s about four times the volume of the San Juan river.’
Sejanovich agreed you could grow grapes, ‘but not of a high quality. You could produce good volume of Tannat or Syrah – or very cheap Malbec.’
Another issue would be setting up the infrastructure. As Savills said, there is no electricity and no buildings – although ‘a new network of 132 kv electricity lines’ is planned. The area was last farmed 25 years ago and was deserted in the rural depopulation during the late 1980s.
A final hurdle for foreigners, Sejanovich said, would be the hugely complicated new laws around foreign ownership of land.

The church may not have been the first — or any place — an addict or their family may have gone for help. As opioids claim more victims, pastors are saying their congregations need to replace shame with solutions.
“There’s a possibility that many people who are in a church are not saying anything because of the embarrassment and stigma of addiction,” said the Rev. Ronald Gibson of Church of Love Faith Center in Rochester. “We want to be able as a church community to say that we are dropping this stigma. We want you to know when you come, you can bring your addiction here. You can bring your family problems here. You can bring your grief. We just want to be part of the community of support.”
To learn how to be more understanding and welcoming, leaders of churches in the city and suburbs formed Churches United to Combat Addiction. The organization is scheduled to host its first conference from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Jan. 27 at Church of Love Faith Center, 700 Exchange St. Pre-registration is required. Go to COLFC.org/cca2018.
The free event includes speakers from law enforcement and the health and recovery fields, workshops and a panel discussion. While Christian prayer is part of the program, secular agencies are participating and secular recovery programs will be included. The conference is open to clergy and laypeople regardless of religion or affiliation.
“I don’t think we’ve truly educated the public on how close this is to each of one of our families, each one of our workplaces, each one of our churches,” said Monroe County Sheriff Todd Baxter, who is scheduled to be one of the speakers. “Any opportunity to get in front of other populations, whether it’s union hall meetings, Veterans of Foreign Wars, or church groups, I think we’ve got to do it and let them know this huge epidemic is touching all of us.”
Just about every town and village, as well as the city, had residents with an opioid overdose last year, according to data released by law enforcement agencies across Monroe County. Police departments large and small recorded approximately 750 overdoses. Of those, approximately 140 were fatal.
Overdose deaths in region jump from 11 to 206 in six years
Jim Folwell, who is part of the pastoral visitation team for The Father’s House in Chili, said his visits with families who’ve lost loved ones showed a need to involve churches in ministering through the opioid crisis. Folwell brought the idea of getting churches more involved to lay and clerical colleagues.
“I have a heart for people,” Folwell said. “I wanted to help build this ministry that creates a bridge between law enforcement, recovery resources and churches.”’
Obituaries reflect devastating opioid crisis, as families tell truth about lost loved ones
Knowing signs of opioid addiction can save a life
Folwell said that families can learn about treatment resources, and workshops will include pastoral training and 12-step recovery options.
Representatives of town and city police departments are scheduled to participate, and Monroe County Public Health Commissioner Dr. Michael Mendoza is among the speakers.
The church-sponsored conference is a way to get more and different people involved, he said.
“I think we’re coming together more,” Mendoza said of various segments of the community that want more education and more resources to deal with opioids. “That’s important. If we’re picking up steam and heading toward the same direction, I think that’s great.”

Lawsuit: Ginger ale doesn't have ginger
A western New York woman this month filed a lawsuit against Canada Dry, claiming its ginger ale doesn't contain any ginger as advertised.

ALBANY -- A western New York woman this month filed a lawsuit against Canada Dry, claiming its ginger ale doesn't contain any ginger as advertised.
The woman, Julie Fletcher, contends in the federal lawsuit filed July 10 in Buffalo that Canada Dry and its parent company, Dr. Pepper Snapple Group Inc. mislead customers that its soft drink includes real ginger.
"In truth, DPSG’s soft drink is not made from real ginger," the lawsuit filed by the Bolivar, Allegany County, woman alleges.
"Instead, Canada Dry Ginger Ale is made from carbonated water, high fructose corn syrup, citric acid, preservatives, and “natural flavors,” i.e., a flavor compound comprised predominately of flavor extracts not derived from ginger, and a minuscule amount of a ginger flavor extract."
The lawsuit is the latest among several brought against the Plano, Tx., company in other states, including in California and Massachusetts.
A third lawsuit in Missouri was dismissed after the person who brought the suit dropped it, according to the Buffalo News, which reported on the New York case Sunday.
In the Missouri case, the company contended that even if a laboratory could not find ginger in its drink, that shouldn't mean it is not an ingredient.
"Plaintiffs’ entire theory of falsity rests on a single-sentence conclusion that some never-identified ‘independent laboratory’ tested some unspecified beverage, in a never-disclosed way at a never-alleged time," the company said in its court papers, the Buffalo News reported.
There was no immediate comment from the company to the latest lawsuit.
Fletcher contended in the lawsuit that she believed Canada Dry was made using ginger root and "was, as a result, a healthier alternative to regular sodas."
The lawsuit said Fletcher bought Canada Dry when her children were sick, thinking it would soothe their stomach aches.
"At the time of each purchase of Canada Dry," the lawsuit said, "Ms. Fletcher did not know that the products that she purchased were not made from real ginger, but were instead made from a miniscule amount of a ginger flavor extract, which does not contain any of the health benefits of real ginger."
The lawsuit isn't the only one out there contending that products aren't as advertised.
For example, a federal class action lawsuit last year charged that Junior Mints candy puts too much air and not enough candy in their candy boxes.

NMSU Carlsbad opens STEM summer program
"Those are some great jobs, great careers," NMSU Carlsbad president John Gratton said.
NMSU Carlsbad opens STEM summer program "Those are some great jobs, great careers," NMSU Carlsbad president John Gratton said. Check out this story on CurrentArgus.com: http://www.currentargus.com/story/news/education/2017/07/05/nmsu-carlsbad-opens-stem-summer-program/452053001/

New Mexico State University Carlsbad is hoping to increase education and employment in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields by offering a new STEM Summer Bridge Academy program.
In 2015 there were more than 8 million STEM jobs nationwide, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Employment in these areas is projected to increase by 13 percent between 2012 and 2022 in the country.
More: More than 15 percent tuition, fee increase for NMSU Carlsbad
The free program is designed to help students improve skills in mathematics, writing, critical thinking, problem solving and studying to be successful in college and a STEM career.
Suzanna Hernandez, STEM grant component coordinator at NMSU Carlsbad, said students participating in the program will take an ACCUPLACER college placement test before and after the program.
Hernandez said the test will help determine what college level courses the student should take.
Hernandez said students are not required to enroll in NMSU Carlsbad to participate in the program, but the university could require it in the future.
The program is funded through a Title III grant awarded to the university by the U.S. Department of Education last year.

The $5 million grant, which will be used over a five-year period, targets increases in enrollment, retention and graduation of students earning STEM degrees.
The grant is to also meant to help increase Hispanic student enrollment, Hernandez said.
"We want to (develop) some of our own (STEM workers)," she said.
NMSU Carlsbad president John Gratton said STEM is important because the career fields have seen a shortage of workers in previous years.
According to STEM: Degree Production and Employment Outcomes report by New Mexico Legislative Finance Committee's Program Evaluation Unit, the percentage of students earning a degree in STEM increased by 32 percent from 2009 to 2014.
New Mexico universities award STEM degrees to 2,600 graduates a year — only half of the 4,600 job openings per year in the technology industry.
More: NMSU Carlsbad graduates ready for the next step
"We're very excited to go in that direction and support the STEM initiative," Gratton said. "Those are some great jobs, great careers."
The three-week program will begin July 17 and continue through Aug. 3, and classes are 9 a.m. to noon and 1-4 p.m., Monday through Thursday.
Up to 30 students will be enrolled on a first-come-first-serve basis. Anyone interested is required to have a GED certificate or high school diploma.
Applications can be picked up and dropped off at the university's STEM Grant Services Office in room 214.
The deadline to apply to the program is July 12.
For more information, call the STEM Grant Services Office at 575-234-9257.

Volvo Recalls Cars Whose Doors Could Open Unexpectedly
Almost 145,000 Volvo S60 and V60 vehicles are involved

Volvo is recalling 144,937 S60 sedans and V60 wagons from the 2011 through 2017 model years because their doors may open unexpectedly while the car is in motion.
Doors may suddenly open during sharp turns or on roundabouts even if they appear to be tightly closed, says the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The problem is due to faulty parts within the door latch mechanism that are more likely to fail in extremely hot weather. NHTSA opened the investigation that led to the recall after receiving complaints from owners.
Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted by Jan. 24, 2020, and instructed to bring their cars to Volvo dealers, who will replace all four door latches free of charge.
Vehicles recalled: Certain Volvo S60, S60 Inscription, and S60 Cross Country sedans and V60 and V60 Cross Country wagons manufactured from June 2, 2010, through Dec. 31, 2016.
The problem: In extremely hot climates, a faulty door latch may break while the door is being opened or closed. Although the door may appear to be closed, it could still open while driving.
The fix: Volvo will install redesigned door latches for all four doors of the affected vehicles.
How to contact the manufacturer: Volvo will contact owners by Jan. 24, 2020. Owners can also call Volvo at 800-458-1552. Volvo's number for this recall is R89978.
NHTSA campaign number: 19V849
Check to see whether your vehicle has an open recall: NHTSA’s website will tell you whether your vehicle has a recall that needs to be addressed.
If you plug your car’s 17-digit vehicle identification number (VIN) into NHTSA’s website and a recall doesn’t appear, it means your vehicle doesn’t currently have one. Because automakers issue recalls often, and for many older vehicles, we recommend checking back regularly.

Despite my love for quirky, old European sedans like the Renault Medallion, it's my passion to help others find a safe, reliable car that still puts a smile on their face—even if they're stuck in traffic. When I'm not behind the wheel or the keyboard, you can find me exploring a new city on foot or planning my next trip.

Roundtable: "Another Afghanistan" 2011/01/13 17:25 The freelance photographer Guillermo Cervera and the journalist of La Vanugardia Plàcid Garcia-Planas have a very different perspective about Afghanistan. Where some people see marines, attacks, politicians, burqas and stereotypes, they see transvestites, boxers, thugs, skaters and kytes. They are some of the few western journalists who work in Kandahar –the spiritual capital of the Talibans– travelling alone, without being enlisted in any western army. They are only enlisted in the Afghan army. Why? “Because it is the army of the Afghans –they say–. Because everyone dislikes them. Because we should –we would desperately want to– give them the responsability of security in Afghanistan, so we can leave the country”. Guillermo and Plàcid will explain their experience in the streets of Kabul and the paths of Badgis, around the Taliban valley of Mashali Kamar, the Taliban valley of Arghandab and the markets of Kandahar. /swf/player.swf?videourl=/media/asset_publics/resources/000/006/993/original/2010_12_02_Otro_Afganistan.mp4&fotourl=/keyframes/6993.jpg&barcolor=99C1FD&streaming=true

Despite everything, the electoral system designed by the regime offers few doubts about the desire of soldiers to guarantee a new political reality depending on interests. The absence of Aung San Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy in elections has complete the uncertainty of the future of a political opposition which is divided and weakened, in a country where political, economic and social problemas are built up. /swf/player.swf?videourl=/media/asset_publics/resources/000/006/767/original/2010_11_17_Birmania.mp4&fotourl=/keyframes/6767.jpg&barcolor=99C1FD&streaming=true

Exhibition "North Korea: The Weight of History" 2010/04/26 10:00 The history of this nation since its foundation in 1948, with the proclamation of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, after the surrender of Japan coinciding with the end of the Second World War in 1945, and division of the country into North and South with the creation of two independent governments, is a history lesson that is worth remembering to understand the present. The aim of this exhibition is to raise public awareness of the evolution of this country, since 1954, following the cessation of hostilities, which erupted in June 1950 between the North and the South and whose result did not take place until three years later. The "weight" of history in this case refers to information provided by the facts and events connected with the 20th Century, useful to understand the conditions of the local context in the global scene that characterizes the society of information. The visual display, through graphic images, photography and audio, will allow the audience to be familiar with the present of an isolated country in the international system, but whose history should be shown in order to access the knowledge of its current reality. The exhibition will include unpublished documentary material in Spain in order to expand the informative and didactic contents of the project. /swf/player.swf?videourl=/media/asset_publics/resources/000/005/201/original/expocorea_web.mp4&fotourl=/keyframes/5201.jpg&barcolor=99C1FD&streaming=true

The NiceOne Barcelona festival - new name, new games
Why not 'console' yourself at the end of a tough year?
Oliver Little | Barcelona
November 28 marks the start of a festival dedicated to the art that is gaming. The newly named NiceOne Barcelona (previous editions were called GamesWorld) is the one event of the year hormonal teenagers might actually go to without mum and dad having to manhandle them out of the house.
Nevertheless even if you don't still have spots, there are plenty of activites on offer for all ages. The gaming festival stretches between 28 November and 1 December held at the Fira venue at Gran Via in the south of Barcelona, and there are opportunities to play the top games of 2019, and there are also experiences, pro-competitions and even e-sports - welcome to the 21st century everyone.
400 ways to play
There are 400 different stations where games can be played. The website advertises that genres including sports, strategy, fighting, and driving. Gameplay also includes FPS and battle royale (don't worry if you don't know what this means, we didn't at first either).
Games include the latest versions of Call of Duty, Fifa 20, Mortal Kombat and many more.
A round world is turning ever-more square as digital immersion is developing year on year. This year, there are virtual reality experiences ranging from Tower Tag, a Red Helmet shooting tournament, and for the classiest among you, zombies. Yum.
Why play real sport when there's e-sport?
The latest staple of human life to transcend/descend (depending on which way you want to look at it) from real to virtual are sports - e-sports are becoming ever more popular, and there are a series of tournaments at the festival to account for this.
These include the Circuito Tormenta, for which 1,500 teams (what a world) have competed previously to get to the Grand Final, held at this weekend's event.
For those trying to relive their teenage years, or those who want to see what it was like to live in a world where technology's role was subordinate, head to the retro gaming section, where you can relive/try out games from the 70s and 80s.
Watch pro-matches
Correct, watching pro-gamers is a spectacle now. At NiceOne, attendees will be able to watch virtual experts strut their stuff in a series of head to heads that true gamer boffins will not want to miss.
Everyone else, there is a life out there to enjoy.
For those who are wanting to pursue a career in video-gaming, (trying not to judge) there is an e-campus section of the event, where universities that offer courses on digital entertainment will give advice and presentations for those who don't fancy a degree buried in textbooks.
Put that controller down
There is a section of the festival however to remind the teenage mind that there is more to the world than a screen.
Funfest, for people 18 or over, allows attendees to enjoy performances, presentations, parades and musical acts.
Tickets are available on NiceOne's official website, as well as a full list of scheduled activities.

Anthrax Vaccine: What You Need to Know
Why get vaccinated?
Adenovirus vaccine
Talk with your health care provider
Risks of a vaccine reaction
What if there is a serious problem?
Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program
Anthrax vaccine can prevent anthrax.
People can get anthrax disease from contact with infected animals or contaminated animal products such as wool, meat, or hides. The anthrax bacteria could also be used as a biological weapon.
Anthrax is not spread from person to person. It is spread in one of four ways, and signs and symptoms can vary depending on how anthrax enters the body:
Through breaks in the skin. Cutaneous anthrax causes blisters or bumps on the skin, swelling around the sore, and a painless skin sore (ulcer) with a black center. The sore is usually on the face, neck, arms, or hands.
From eating infected meat. Ingestion anthrax can cause fever and chills. It can affect the upper part of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, the lower part of the GI tract, or both. When it affects the upper part, there is swelling of the neck or neck glands, sore throat, and painful swallowing or difficulty breathing. When it affects the lower GI tract, nausea and vomiting, stomach pain and swelling, and diarrhea may be present. The patient may also look flushed (red), have red eyes, or faint.
From inhaling spores of the bacteria that causes anthrax. Inhalation anthrax can cause shortness of breath, cough, chest discomfort, confusion, nausea or vomiting, stomachache, sweats, and dizziness.
From injecting heroin. Injection anthrax can result in swelling at the injection site, nausea and vomiting, and sweats.
All types of anthrax can cause fever, chills, fatigue, and headache. Anthrax can spread throughout the body and cause severe illness, including brain infections and even death, if left untreated.
Anthrax vaccine
Anthrax vaccine is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and recommended for adults 18 through 65 years of age who are at risk of exposure to anthrax bacteria, including:
Certain laboratory workers who work with Bacillus anthracis
People who handle potentially infected animals or their carcasses
Some military personnel (determined by the Department of Defense)
Some emergency and other responders whose response activities might lead to exposure
These people should get 3 doses of anthrax vaccine, followed by booster doses for ongoing protection.
Anthrax vaccine is also recommended for unvaccinated people of all ages who have been exposed to anthrax. These people should get 3 doses of anthrax vaccine together with recommended antibiotic drugs.
Anthrax vaccine has not been studied or used in children less than 18 years of age. Because its use in exposed children is not approved by FDA, it must be used under an expanded access Investigational New Drug (IND) program and requires informed consent from a parent or legal guardian.
Tell your vaccine provider if the person getting the vaccine:
Has had an allergic reaction after a previous dose of anthrax vaccine, or has any severe, life-threatening allergies.
Is pregnant or thinks she might be pregnant.
Has a weakened immune system.
Has a history of anthrax disease.
In some cases, your health care provider may decide to postpone anthrax vaccination to a future visit.
People with minor illnesses, such as a cold, may be vaccinated. People who are moderately or severely ill should usually wait until they recover before getting anthrax vaccine.
If you are receiving the vaccine because you have been exposed to anthrax, tell your health care provider if you are not feeling well. You might need immediate medical care.
Your health care provider can give you more information.
After getting a shot of anthrax vaccine, you may have:
Tenderness, redness, itching, or a lump or bruise where the shot is given
Muscle aches or short-term trouble moving your arm
Headaches or fatigue
People sometimes faint after medical procedures, including vaccination. Tell your provider if you feel dizzy or have vision changes or ringing in the ears.
As with any medicine, there is a very remote chance of a vaccine causing a severe allergic reaction, other serious injury, or death.
An allergic reaction could occur after the vaccinated person leaves the clinic. If you see signs of a severe allergic reaction (hives, swelling of the face and throat, difficulty breathing, a fast heartbeat, dizziness, or weakness), call 9-1-1 and get the person to the nearest hospital.
For other signs that concern you, call your health care provider.
Adverse reactions should be reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). Your health care provider will usually file this report, or you can do it yourself. Visit the VAERS websiteexternal icon or call 1-800-822-7967. VAERS is only for reporting reactions, and VAERS staff do not give medical advice.
The Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program is a federal program that may help pay for costs of medical care and other specific expenses of certain people who have been seriously injured by certain medicines or vaccines. If you have been injured by the anthrax vaccine, you can learn more about this Program by visiting the program’s website,external icon or calling 1-855-266-2427.
Ask your health care provider.

Smart TVs Share Your Information on Location and Usage With Advertisers: study
Researchers from Northeastern University and Imperial College London confirmed that smart TVs from Samsung, LG and Amazon were sending data such as location and IP address to Netflix, Google and Facebook.
Internet of Things (IoT) devices are increasingly found in everyday homes, providing useful functionality for devices such as TVs, smart speakers, and video doorbells. Along with their benefits come potential privacy risks, since these devices can communicate information about their users to other parties over the Internet. However, understanding these risks in depth and at scale is difficult due to heterogeneity in devices’ user interfaces, protocols, and functionality.
In thiheir study, the researchers conducted a multidimensional analysis of information exposure from 81 devices located in labs in the US and UK. Through a total of 34,586 rigorous automated and manual con- trolled experiments, thet characterized information exposure in terms of destinations of Internet traffic, whether the contents of communication are protected by encryption, what are the IoT-device interactions that can be inferred from such content, and whether there are unexpected exposures of private and/or sensitive information (e.g., video surreptitiously transmitted by a recording device).
The researchers found that the data were being sent from their devices whether or not the user had a Netflix account. They also found that other smart devices including speakers and cameras were sending user data to dozens of third parties including Spotify and Microsoft.
Amazon, Google, Akamai and Microsoft were the most frequently contacted companies, partly because these companies provide cloud and networking services for smart devices to operate on, the researchers said.
“Amazon is contacted by almost half the devices in our tests, which stands out because [this means] Amazon can infer a lot of information about what you’re doing with different devices in your home, including those they don’t manufacture,” said David Choffnes, computer scientist at Northeastern University and one of the paper’s authors. “They also can have a lot of visibility into what their competitors are doing.”
By analysing network traffic, the Northeastern team concluded that third parties receive, at the very least, information about the device people are using, their locations, and possibly even when they are interacting with it.
Because much of the data being sent out by device manufacturers was encrypted, the academics were not aware of exactly what additional data were being transmitted.
In a separate study of smart TVs by Princeton University, researchers found that some apps supported by Roku and FireTV were sending data such as specific user identifiers to third parties including Google.
The findings are not suprising, but they are once again expected to heighten concerns about the privacy of user data on the internet just as smart devices, including televisions, are flooding homes.
Commencting on the study, Netflix said: “Information Netflix receives from smart TVs that are not signed in is confined to how Netflix performs and appears on screen. We do not receive any information about other applications or activity on smart TVs.”
Facebook said: “It’s common for devices and apps to send data to the third-party services that are integrated into them. This could, for example, include an app sending data to Facebook to create a login interface, or provide a Like button.”
Google said: “Like other publishers, smart TV app developers can use Google’s ad services to show ads against their content or measure the performance of ads. Depending on the user’s chosen preferences on the device and consents, the publisher may share data with Google’s that’s similar to data used for ads in apps or on the web. Depending on the device manufacturer or the app owner, data sent to Google could include user location, device type and what the user is watching within a specific app so they can be targeted with personalized advertising.”

Senate Blocks Obama's DOJ Civil Rights Division Pick Debo Adegbile
Brentin Mock
Today, Senate Republicans and Democrats voted to block President Obama's pick for Justice Department Civil Rights Division head Debo Adegbile, the former lead attorney on voting rights for the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund. Republicans opposed him mostly because of his involvement as an LDF lawyer in the appeal for the imprisoned human rights activist Mumia Abu-Jamal. Adegbile's assistance in that case was filing a brief claiming that the jury in Abu-Jamal's trial—where he was convicted for killing a police officer—received improper instructions for their deliberations.
The judge in that case did find merit in Adegbile's brief, but members of the U.S. Senate apparently did not. Many of the Republicans accused Adegbile of helping a "cop killer." National law enforcement associations encouraged the Senate to block Adegbile for the same reasons.
On top of that, seven Democrats joined with Republicans to block Adegbile on similar grounds, some of them afraid that a favorable vote would hurt their re-election chances this year. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Democrat, also voted against Adegbile, but only under a technical procedure so that he could bring Adegbile back up for a vote in the future.
"I believe that Republicans have distorted this good man's record in an attempt to score political points and block confirmation of a faithful defender of voting rights," said Reid at the vote hearing today. "Republicans have not given this good man a fair shot at confirmation."
It was thought that Adegbile would have a smoother transition through the Senate thanks to a rule change sparked by Reid in November, that would require only a simple majority vote (51 votes) for nominees to federal agencies as opposed to the 60 votes that were needed in the past. But today's obstruction was largely covered in racial animus, according to those present for the vote.
"Today's vote demonstrated the worst elements of our political system," said Wade Henderson, president and CEO of The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights. "Unhinged rhetoric trumped substance, racialized language triumphed over thoughtful discourse, and our legal and political system will pay the price. It's hypocritical for Senators to claim to support civil rights enforcement and then turn their backs on our communities by voting against the consideration this nominee on his merits."

Super Bowl 2019: 5 cringeworthy moments from Maroon 5's halftime show
Sure, Maroon 5 has hits, but that doesn't change the fact that they're almost TOO easy to hate on.
Not many expected the band's Super Bowl LIII halftime show to be good (in fact, the best moments from the show had nothing to do with Maroon 5 or Adam Levine), but here are the top cringeworthy moments from the halftime show.
Adam Levine's wardrobe -- and lack thereof
He started the show wearing a track suit and a long black coat, which means probably 90 percent of the people watching at home were dressed better than the man headlining the Super Bowl halftime show (pretty sure the holey sweatpants I'm wearing right now are more fashionable). Then he took off coat and jacket to reveal the world's worst tank top, and then he took THAT off to reveal the world's worst tattoos. And those chains? Oof. The track suit was somehow the best part of the outfit.
Super Bowl 2019: Quiz yourself on these halftime shows and musical mishaps
"Sicko Mode" doesn't really work on TV
The show producers (sort of) gave the people what they wanted with that SpongeBob SquarePants "Sicko Mode" intro and Travis Scott flying in on a fiery meteor, but it went downhill from there. Which reminds us, we need to talk about...
...Travis Scott's weird belt
The leather vest? Cool. The utility belt? Uh, distracting to say the least. It looks like it should belong to a video game character to hold the many items you'll need on your quest.

Big Boi without Andre 3000
Listen, we're gonna let Big Boi finish, but there's no Outkast without Andre 3000. And when the Atlanta rapper came on stage in a massive fur coat to perform "The Way You Move," it just left us a little wanting.

Adam Levine in general
Maybe the performance would have been better if it was Maroon 4. From the aforementioned stripping to serious pitch issues to really bad dancing during Travis Scott's (entirely too brief) set, to a cringe-so-hard moment in which he asked the crowd, "Can I play guitar for you?" and the moment floating drone lanterns spelled out "One Love" in the sky while he performed "She Will Be Loved," the song you all danced to with your middle school crushes, it was just really, really, really rough. Better luck next year, NFL.

Team-by-Team Season Preview – San Jose Sharks
Updated: September 15, 2014 at 3:05 pm by Brock Seguin
Fantasy, Featured
Additions: Subtractions:
Taylor Fedun – D Martin Havlat – RW
John Scott – LW/D Brad Stuart – D
John McCarthy – LW
Dan Boyle – D
For the 10th straight season, the San Jose Sharks finished in the top-3 in the Pacific Division and qualified for the playoffs. But, for the 10th consecutive season, the Sharks fell short in the postseason. A decade of making the playoffs and the Sharks have never been to the Stanley Cup Final. The fashion in which they lost this past season, was the most disappointing for Sharks fans. After bursting out to a 3-0 series lead, San Jose lost the next four games, losing in seven to the eventual Stanley Cup Champion Los Angeles Kings.
Despite another disappointing end to the year, the Sharks look a lot like they did last season. On the blueline they parted ways with Dan Boyle (free agency) and Brad Stuart (traded to COL) which opens the door for Brent Burns to move back to defence and young D-men Matt Tennyson, Taylor Doherty, Mirco Mueller and Taylor Fedun to battle it out for the sixth D spot.
After a full season at forward that produced 22 goals and 26 assists (48 points) in 69 games, Burns will shift back to defence in 2014-15. The 29-year-old was a beast in from of the net, but the move back to the blueline should not hurt his point totals all that much. His goals should be down a bit, but he is still capable of 40 points from the back-end. His PIMS is something that should rise with his move. The other two big fantasy contributors on the Sharks’ blue line are Jason Demers and Marc-Eduard Vlasic. Demers, 26, had the best season of his career in 2013-14. He set a new season-high in assists (29) and points (34) while posting a plus-14 rating. The departure of Dan Boyle should allow Demers to see more power-play time, so his numbers shouldn’t change much from his career-year. Vlasic, 27, turned in one of the best seasons he has ever had. He posted a solid 24 points (5G / 19A) while registering the NHL’s ninth best plus/minus (+31) in 81 games. He is a great two-way defenseman and that is why Canada selected him to their Olympic roster last Winter. He rarely misses games and his point totals are consistently in the mid-20’s with a good plus/minus.
Up front, the Sharks still have a ton of talent. After last year’s collapse, they stripped Joe Thornton of the captaincy and Patrick Marleau of his ‘A’, but that won’t do anything to their fantasy values. “Jumbo Joe” had 11 goals and was second in the NHL with 65 assists (76 points) in 82 games. In 2014-15, expect much of the same. Low goal totals, (hasn’t scored 20 since 2010-11) and top-5 in the NHL in assists. He should finish between 70-80 points. In 2013-14, Marleau played every regular season game for the fifth straight season and scored 30-plus goals for the fifth consecutive full season. Marleau is as consistent performer as there is in fantasy, so ‘A’ or not, he is worthy of your third-round pick.
They are joined by Joe Pavelski, who exploded for 41 goals last season. He has always been a consistent goal scorer, but another 40 goal season is very unlikely. That said, who is complaining about a 30-30 season? Logan Couture had a bit of a down year, tallying just 23 goals in 65 games. Prior to last year he had 30-plus goals in each of the previous two 82-game seasons, so expect him to get back on that pace this season. Tomas Hertl had a great rookie season going until he had to undergo surgery to repair a damaged MCL and PCL in early January. He had 15 goals and 10 assists (25 points) in 35 games. However, six of the 15 goals came in his first three games, so don’t get crazy and expect a 40 goal season from the 20-year-old rising star. Tommy Wingels rounds out a nice group of forwards. Wingels enjoyed a quality season in 2013-14. He had 38 points (16G / 22A) in 77 games, which is impressive from a player who had an AHL career-high of 17 goals. Wingels will probably max-out at 40 points, so there is limited upside here.
In net the Sharks are also extremely steady. Antti Niemi was 39-17-7 with a 2.39 GAA and .913 SV% last season. He faltered down the stretch and in the playoffs, but he has always been a great regular season performer. In 2014-15 he will be pushed by Alex Stalock for starts, but Niemi should have a firm grasp on the starting job, especially if he maintains his regular season career 2.35 GAA and .916 SV%. Stalock was 12-5-2 with a 1.87 GAA and .932 SV% in his first full NHL season. He will need Niemi to struggle if he is going to become a legit fantasy option, but he should make for a great spot-start options when he gets the nod.

Myanmar begins rare court martial after probe into Rohingya atrocities
Ten Rohingya Muslim men with their hands bound kneel in Inn Din village, Myanmar, September 1, 2017 Reuters
Soldiers, police, and Buddhist villagers are alleged to have razed hundreds of villages in the remote western Rakhine state, torturing Rohingya
Myanmar's military began a rare court martial of soldiers on Tuesday following a probe into alleged atrocities during a crackdown on Rohingya, a spokesman said, as the country prepares to face genocide charges at an international court in the Hague.
Hundreds of thousands of Rohingya fled to neighbouring Bangladesh to escape a Myanmar military offensive launched in August 2017 that UN investigators described as having been executed with genocidal intent.
Soldiers, police, and Buddhist villagers are alleged to have razed hundreds of villages in the remote western Rakhine state, torturing Rohingya as they fled, carrying out mass-killings and gang-rapes.
Myanmar says the army was fighting a legitimate counter-insurgency campaign against militants who attacked security posts.
Spokesman Zaw Min Tun told Reuters via telephone that soldiers and officers from a regiment deployed to Gu Dar Pyin village, the site of an alleged massacre of Rohingya, were “weak in following the rules of engagement.”
In a statement published on its website, the army said the soldiers being court martialed were involved in “accidents” in Gu Dar Pyin.
The Associated Press reported the existence of at least five mass graves in the village, through interviews with survivors in refugee camps in Bangladesh and time-stamped cellphone videos. Myanmar denied the allegations made in the AP report.
The country is facing a wave of international pressure over its treatment of the Rohingya, with cases filed against it at courts around the world.
Myanmar's leader Aung San Suu Kyi, winner of a Nobel peace prize for her past defiance of a military junta that had led the country for decades, is set to travel to the Hague for hearings starting in December at the International Court of Justice.
Gambia, a tiny, mainly Muslim West African state, lodged a lawsuit accusing the country of genocide after winning the support of the 57-nation Organization for Islamic Cooperation (OIC).
Myanmar says the international efforts violate its sovereignty and has vowed to carry out its own investigations into the allegations.
But few have been punished so far. Seven soldiers jailed for 10 years for killing 10 Rohingya men and boys in the village of Inn Din were granted early release last November, after serving less than a year in prison.
Two Reuters journalists who uncovered the murders spent more than 16 months behind bars on charges of obtaining state secrets, before being released in a presidential amnesty in May.

Taming the Wild Data Beast
By Bryan Palmer
Former Marketing Director, Partnerships & Alliances
Forbes Insights Research - The Data Differentiator: How Improving Data Quality Improve Business
It’s no coincidence that the topic of data, including its quality, is everywhere. That’s because data is everywhere.
Technology in large part has unleashed a giant data beast that is propagating exponentially, leaving businesses unsure of how to wrangle the best data available for their competitive advantage.
It’s top of mind for many business leaders. In the Forbes Insights and KPMG 2016 Global CEO Outlook, data and analytics capability ranks the highest of the top five investment priorities for CEOs today. The report also found that 84% of CEOs are concerned about the quality of the data on which they base their decisions.
If we don’t get [data] right, we may not realize it until it’s too late.
Anthony Scriffignano, PhD, SVP and Chief Data Scientist, Dun & Bradstreet
One of the reasons it’s such a focus for business leaders is because it’s costing them money. Gartner measures the average financial impact of poor data on businesses at $9.7 million per year.
To help businesses get a practical handle on their data with a focus on quality, Pitney Bowes enlisted Forbes Insights to dig into the topic. The resulting research paper The Data Differentiator: How Improving Data Quality Improve Business tackles these four areas:
What is Data Quality, and What Does it look Like?
Data is a Differentiator
Bringing Outside Data In
Choosing a Data Partner
As part of the research process, Forbes Insights interviewed Dun & Bradstreet’s Chief Data Scientist, Anthony Scriffignano, PhD, who framed his views on the definition of data quality and why it’s so important – particularly in today’s digital world.
He also offered these three helpful pieces of advice for companies looking for the best data partners:
Never lead with a data set – lead with a question. Get the question right before you start interrogating the data. Understand what the problem is that you’re trying to solve.
Understand the data quality drivers important to you. Don’t let data providers tell you how accurate their data is. You can consider their input. But understand what’s important to you.
Always have some sort of closed-loop process. Don’t fall victim to the “dipstick test”— taking a convenient sample to reach a conclusion. It doesn’t work well, especially with complex data sets. Rather, work with a data provider to create a closed-loop process to get to a steady state. Communicate your needs, get a representative data sample, test, and share results. Then decide whether the data is good enough.
Attaining data quality in the face of what seems like a data monstrosity doesn’t have to be daunting. With a strong business objective for growth defined, businesses can harness the best data available to take full advantage of game changing technologies like Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things.

In Gundo's village in Senegal it was normal for girls to be cut. But the women made the choice to #endFGM.
How to become a woman, without being cut
On the way to becoming a woman
The transformation to womanhood for these Maasai girls in Kajiado, Kenya, used to happen in a three day ritual, during which girls were also cut. Today, that ceremony still exists: all the rites and celebrations, songs and dances still take place - without the cutting.
Instead of silence, education
With cutting, women endured a horrific rite of passage and suffered in silence. Now, the three-day ritual is about open communication and education. They get training on sexual and and reproductive rights while their mothers cook and care for them.
Learning about bodies
This new rite of passage involves teaching girls about how the female body looks and works. This basic information - including conversations about FGM - is key in fighting against the continuation of the practice. The workshops are sponsored by NGOs like Amref Health Africa.
A girl's get-together
Beyond the educational part, girls prepare performances for their community. In the night before the actual rite of passage, the girls gather in a so-called "candle night", where they perform their dances and songs the first time.
The role of men
The young Maasai men who might become the community leaders - known as Morans - gather before the cultural events start. The men play a crucial role accepting the alternative rite of passage.
Nice Lengete was the first one not being cut. Instead, Nice learned in a workshop about sexual health rights and today, she educates the women in her village. To do so, she sought support from village elders. "And amazingly they listened. To me - Nice!" she said. "I helped [them] understand the need for using condoms, going for treatment for sexually transmitted infections and taking HIV tests."
Different colors, different meanings
For the rite of passage, the girls dress up for the celebrations: they wear special necklaces and clothes. Depending on the Maasai community, the colors have symbolism behind them, from bravery to sustenance to fertility.
Protecting girls from bad omens
Each community has special rites that form the cultural part of the three-day retreat. Women may shave their heads or have their faces painted. The paintings are meant to protect the girls from bad omens.
Creating individual rituals
Preserving long-held cultural rituals in the new alternative rite of passage is crucial to acceptance by village elders. In one community, a ritual that involves pouring a mix of milk and water over the girl's head was maintained. Each community creates their own customs, gives them meaning and adapts it to new circumstances if necessary.
The final day
On the final day, there are speeches and dance performances. It's all part of blessing the girls and moving from one part of life to another. As part of that, the women walk underneath sticks that other community members hold over their heads.
The alternative rite of passage ends with each girl being blessed and receiving a certificate of completion in the educational workshop. Since the introduction of the alternative rite of passage in 2009, more than 7,000 Maasai girls have taken part and been saved from cutting.

#WhoAmI: Across the border from North to South Korea
Permalink https://p.dw.com/p/1DFe4
Ka-yeon escaped from North to South Korea. But she says being identified as a refugee is tough.
South Koreans: “Peace is what we need”
Two countries, one people - no peace
There is still no official peace between North and South Korea, despite the Korean War ending more than 60 years ago. Citizens remain separated by the “demilitarized zone” (DMZ), one of the most heavily armed borders in the world. Around 600,000 South Korean and 28,500 US troops face off against an estimated 770,000 North Korean soldiers stationed within 80 kilometers of the DMZ.
Cold War relic
North Korea was founded as a communist country with support from both the Soviet Union and China, but over the years North Korea’s government has shifted away from the tradition of Marx and Lenin. Now, Juche or “self-reliance” and a “military first” policy are the guiding principles of the Kim dynasty.
Families divided
The forced separation of the Korean people split up many families. More than six decades on, some of those connections are starting to fade. Still, there are more than 70,000 people waiting to take part in government-backed family reunions.
A legacy of human rights abuses
Observers, including the UN and Human Rights Watch, have roundly criticized North Korea for human rights abuses including mass imprisonment, murder and enslavement. But, North Korea claims its citizens “enjoy genuine human rights”. The reclusive country argues human rights exist for the good of the state and say the rights of the individual could never replace the rights of the collective.
Cut off from the world
In North Korea, all media is closely controlled and possessing foreign books and music or listening to broadcasts from across the border can result in prison sentences. People also have a skewed view of western culture - hamburgers were invented by Kim Jong Il in 2009.
A country suffering
While South Korea has turned itself into a technological superpower, North Korea’s government has struggled to supply its citizens with even basic foodstuffs. The UN estimates that more than a quarter of children under five show signs of chronic malnutrition.
Some had hoped that when western-educated Kim Jong Un took over in Pyongyang in 2011 it would usher in a new era in relations between the North and the South. But those hopes were soon dashed as Kim continued the restrictive policies of his father.
But despite the continuing state of war, many of the South Koreans we spoke to expressed their hope that relations would get better one day. The best future for many would be a reunited Korea.

See the world's toughest borders
Serbia-Hungary: heart of the Balkan route
An iconic image from the 2015 refugee move: crossing into the EU on the railway tracks between Serbia and Hungary to Europe. This crossing point closed in September but Europe's porous borders will certainly yield new tracks to travel. People detected at Europe's borders already surpassed last year's by the end of August: 350,000; and that doesn't even count people who got in without detection.
The Korean bridge of no return
The border between South and North Korea has been closed and heavily militarized for 62 years. This sign marks the "bridge of no return", seen here seen from the South Korean side. Since the late 1990s, approximately 28,000 North Koreans have fled to South Korea. More recently, both countries agreed to hold brief family reunions near the border.
The long American-Mexican border
Disparagingly labelled the "tortilla wall" by Americans, walls and fences secure 1126 kilometers--a third of the actual border. With 18,500 officers are positioned along it, the border is one of the most-policed on the planet. Though many millions of Mexican citizens still travel to the United States to work and live as undocumented immigrants, a number estimated at 6.7 million in 2012.
700 deportations per day
It's a border that causes endless political trouble and deep tensions. Beautiful moments of life happen right at the border, but this peaceful scene on the Mexican side of the border is deceiving: 700 people are forcibly deported back to Mexico each day. For those who spent years in the States, many have a hard time adjusting to their new home.
Morocco-Spain: Poverty and golf courses
Economic worlds clash in the Spanish enclaves Melilla and Ceuta, bordering on Morocco. Seeking a future in rich Europe, refugees from all over Africa seek a way to request asylum in a European country. In search of a better future, many try to climb the fences. With an extensive series of fences and Morocco taking more of an active role, fewer scenes like this are taking place.
Brazil-Bolivia: Better grow on the right side?
According to satellite images, the frontier of Brazil's deforestation is defined by the border to Bolivia. Legal and illegal deforestation made Brazil's Amazon forest cover decrease by 20 percent during the last half century. However, Bolivia is also considered a deforestation hotspot that scientist say needs more study.
Haiti-Dominican Republic: One island, two worlds
Though both countries share one island, they couldn't hardly be more different: The Dominican Republic is a tourist paradise while Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the world. Striving for a better future, many people move to the DR. In 2015 the country strengthened immigration laws to encourage migrants to leave and around 40,000 Haitians have now returned to their country.
Egypt-Israel: A tense peace
Desert on the one and dense population on the other, the border between Egypt and Israel divides a Muslim-majority from a Jewish-majority. A peace that has held for more than 30 years has been marred in recent years by violent border incidents, increased militarization and tense political exchanges. Israel finished building a fence on the border at the end of 2013.
Three countries, one border
In some parts of the world, borders are not marked with patrols, fences and walls. This spot, marked by a three-sided stone, marks the borders of three countries: Germany, Austria and the Czech Republic. Part of the Schengen zone, free travel across these borders has only recently been limited due to the European refugee crisis.
Pakistan-India: The 'Line of Control'
Since the first Indian-Pakistani war from 1947 to 1949, the Kashmir region has been divided by the "Line of Control" between a Pakistan-governed, Muslim majority and an Indian-governed, Buddhist and Hindu majority. The line hasn't stopped terrorist attacks meant to establish an Islamic Kashmir that killed an estimated 43,000 people since 1993.
Western Sahara: The Moroccan Wall
Until 1976 Western Sahara was a Spanish colony. To stake a claim, the Moroccan king settled 350,000 people in Western Sahara. The local Saharawis started an independence movement called Polisario Front. The war split Western Sahara, with the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic on one side and Moroccan held territory on the other. Down the middle runs a heavily militarized berm built into the sand.
Israel-West Bank: Stone-cast conflict
Since 2002 controversial walls and fences were built that amounted to barriers stretching to more than 759 kilometers. In densely populated areas like this photo from Jerusalem, a high concrete wall nine meters high fortifies the border between Israel and the West Bank. In 2004, the International Court ruled that building a wall onto Palestinian areas is not compatible with international law.

What Do Older Women Want in Bed?
Ultimately, older women want what all women want in bed: connection, intimacy, and excitement. Physiology may change with menopause, but that doesn’t mean that sexual closeness has to end.
Some older women find that sex after menopause is better than it ever was before.
Contrary to what you may have heard, menopause does not signal the beginning of the end of a woman’s sex life. It’s true that some adjustments may have to be made, but many women find that postmenopausal sex can be every bit as satisfying and enjoyable — though somewhat less frenzied — like the sex, they enjoyed when they were younger.
In fact, Irwin Goldstein, M.D., director of sexual medicine at San Diego’s Alvarado Hospital, cites a number of reasons why postmenopausal women can enjoy “the greatest sex life on earth.” Interviewed by Amanda Gardner for an article posted at Health.com, Dr. Goldstein points out that older women no longer need to limit their sexual liaisons to times when the kids are out of the house. He also notes that postmenopausal women are no longer bothered by menses. “You can have sex in any room in the house,” he adds.
No More Pregnancy Worries
Once menopause has come and gone, worries about pregnancy are also a thing of the past, freeing women to enjoy sex more completely. Even mothers of children who’ve not yet left the nest will find fewer interruptions now that their kids are older and have begun to spend more of their time outside the home.
Although many older women take advantage of these postmenopausal benefits to enjoy an even more fulfilling sex life in their later years, certain physical and emotional changes may subtly — and not so subtly — reshape their sexual preferences. To please an older female partner, men should learn about these changes so that they can ensure a more pleasant experience for both of them.
Different Priorities
A survey conducted by the American Sexual Health Association in 2014 revealed that older men and women — ages 40 to 74 — had very different priorities on the subject of improving sexual intimacy. While men were preoccupied with their physical ability to function sexually, women were much more interested in finding better ways to achieve orgasm, according to ASHA. Other sexual priorities among older women include “emotional bonding with their partners and just a general enjoyment of sex.”
Menopause brings with it a sharp drop in the body’s production of estrogen, the primary female sex hormone. Among its many functions, estrogen regulates vaginal lubrication and blood flow and maintains the elasticity of the tissue lining the vagina. One of the primary effects of the decline in estrogen levels is vaginal dryness, which can make sexual intercourse less comfortable or even painful. Postmenopausal women also tend to take longer to become sexually aroused.
Focus More on Foreplay
To combat vaginal dryness and the discomfort it can cause during sex, Canada’s Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists offers a few helpful suggestions. Encouraging your partner to take more time at foreplay can be an important step in the right direction. Making foreplay a priority allows a couple to enjoy a slow and more erotic buildup to intercourse. The act of applying a vaginal lubricant can itself spice up foreplay while at the same time overcoming the vaginal dryness that can be a problem for postmenopausal women.
According to the society, sexual lubricants made especially for women and water-based lubricants are widely available. Available in both gel and suppository form, these lubricants should be applied liberally to the vagina just prior to sex. As an alternative or adjunctive treatment, women may opt to try transvaginal hormonal therapy. Estrogen introduced into the vagina usually enhances vaginal blood flow, thus improving lubrication and sensation in the vaginal area.
Sexual priorities among older women include emotional bonding with their partners and just a general enjoyment of sex.
Forms of Transvaginal Therapy
Transvaginal estrogen therapy is available in three primary forms, according to the society. A vaginal ring made of silicon rubber is introduced high into the vagina and left in place for three months. It releases the amount of estrogen needed to maintain optimal vaginal health and function. The therapy is also available in tablet form and involves the insertion of an estrogen-enriched tablet into the vagina twice weekly. Finally, the same results can be produced with the use of a conjugated estrogen cream that is applied to the walls of the vagina with a small applicator twice weekly.
For some women, particularly those who for most of their lives have regarded sex as more of a duty than a pleasure, menopause and its effects on sexual function may become a convenient excuse for slowly withdrawing from an active sex life. In an article posted at YourLifeChoices, an Australian website, sex therapist/psychologist Bettina Arndt points out that many older women don’t go off sex so much as “they go off their husbands.”
Change Reinvigorates Desire
Reproductive years may end, but intimacy doesn’t have to.
Arndt points to ground-breaking research by Melbourne-based psychiatrist Lorraine Dennerstein who found that while some postmenopausal women experience a decline in sex drive, those with a new man in their lives had libidos firing on all cylinders. Arndt points out that there is “such a difference between mating in captivity — same old, same old — and mating in the wild, with a brand new man. A strange body, all those new pheromones buzzing around, plus there’s a different brain chemistry when you are first in love which can give a boost to even a well-worn libido.”
Other postmenopausal women seem never to lose their desire for sex, says Arndt or they will find their interest in sex somehow revived once the kids are out of the house or otherwise occupied. Such women — Arndt calls them “juicy tomatoes” — enjoy sex drives that are equal to those of the most sexual of men.
For women who’ve lost a spouse or whose male partners have lost their interest in sex because of erection problems or failing health, Arndt acknowledges that a vibrator can help to relieve sexual tension. However, it does little to satisfy “skin hunger,” Arndt’s term for the longing for physical touch or human contact. “There’s no easy solution, although regular massage can help provide some close human contact,” she says. “I’m also delighted there are now select services using surrogates to offer erotic massage and sexual pleasure to older people on their own, as well as people with disabilities.”
Testosterone Levels Also Dip
With the onset of menopause, estrogen production declines sharply, as does a woman’s supply of testosterone, the primary male sex hormone but a driving factor behind sexual desire in both men and women. For some women, this hormonal change may account for a loss of interest in and desire for sex. At present, there is no FDA-approved treatment for hypoactive sexual desire disorder in postmenopausal women.
Addyi, approved by the regulatory agency in August 2015, is designed for use exclusively by premenopausal women suffering from HSDD. And, judging by the drug’s sales and limited feedback from those who’ve used it, that medication is providing marginal relief at best.

Dangers of Floods: Considerations for Environmental Health Professionals
Floods and Environmental Health
The dangers of floods are complex. Flash floods can form quickly and carry people, vehicles and even buildings away in the blink of an eye. On the other hand, even slow forming flooding from forecasted storms can claim lives and destroy buildings. When floods happen, those in the area can’t do much but get to safety and hope for the waters to recede.
Unfortunately, flooding danger doesn’t recede with the water. While many feel relief after flood water clears, there are still plenty of safety hazards. Environmental health and safety professionals know this reality all too well. While there are a lot of considerations on the minds of EHS pro’s after a flood, they can’t forget the following dangers of floods.
Basic flood cleanup can be dangerous for environmental health professionals and volunteers alike. Debris like downed trees, branches, and vehicles are not sturdy and cause injury. Although shallow water may seem safe, young children can drown and live electrical wires could be present.
When cleaning up flood water and debris, it’s also important to remember to look out for animals and insects. Flood waters can displace animals, insects, and reptiles. Not to mention, standing water is a breeding ground for mosquitos and other pests. Remember to stay alert and avoid contact.
As environmental health and safety professionals, it’s your responsibility to monitor, treat and regulate drinking water. Floods waters can compromise drinking water by disrupting water purification and sewage disposal systems. Controlling waste is an important part of public health, and is necessary after flooding. Another form of waste that floods waters can dislodge is hospital infectious waste. Infectious waste can come from other places as well. Infectious organisms like E. coli, Salmonella, tetanus and Hepatitis A can often thrive in floodwater and threaten the general public.
The result of these biohazards and infectious diseases in water can lead to adverse health conditions in people and animals. Eating or drinking anything contaminated by flood water can cause diarrheal disease. Open wounds exposed to flood water can result in contracting diseases from the flood water as well.
Remind the public to protect themselves by washing their hands frequently and thoroughly. It’s also a good idea to advise parents not to allow their children to play in floodwaters. To protect open wounds, people should cover them with a waterproof bandage and avoid exposure to flood water altogether. Helping with cleanup is not worth the infection.
To better facilitate communication about the drinking water supply, try using the CDC’s Drinking Water Advisory Communication Toolbox.
Building Cleanup
Before a storm hits, building owners should contact a weather expert to understand if their property is in a flash-flood-prone area or landslide-prone area. Owners should also make sure the building’s electricity and gas are turned off before the building is evacuated for a flood.
Cleaning up the environment is important after a flood, but cleaning up office buildings and store fronts is also key in recovery. Protecting buildings against the dangers of floods has to be done before the waters even hit. This presents many challenges to environmental health practitioners, as maintaining a secure and healthy building environment requires a lot of knowledge.
After the flood water recedes, affected buildings are dangerous areas. Workers should protect themselves by wearing hard hats, goggles, heavy work gloves, and watertight boots with a steel toe and insole. These workers should also be up-to-date with their immunizations. After cleanup, you should remind owners to check the quality of the cleanup. Any improper cleaning methods could create a perfect environment for mold to grow.
