Dave Hansen yell back to supporters as they make thier way around the Wisconsin Capitol Saturday, March 12, 2011, in Madison. Morry Gash/AP Photo Democrat Mark Miller Won't Seek Re-Election To Wisconsin Senate Miller Led Senate Democrats During The 2011 Battle Over Act 10 By Shawn Johnson Tuesday, January 21, 2020, 12:20pm Another longtime Democratic state senator has announced that he won't seek re-election in November. Wisconsin Sen. Mark Miller, D-Monona, made his announcement Tuesday morning during a speech to his colleagues from the floor of the state Senate. Miller was elected to the state Assembly in 1998 and to the Senate in 2004. He was the Senate minority leader in 2011 when Democrats fled Wisconsin to try to block a vote on then-Gov. Scott Walker's landmark collective bargaining bill that would later be known as Act 10. Miller told his colleagues Tuesday that he was proud of his work in the Senate but disappointed with how partisan the Legislature has become. Miller said responsible governance demands building a culture of respect for the institution, the opposition party and for voters. "Without this culture of respect and responsibility, we undermine confidence in our democratic institutions," Miller said. Miller's decision follows a similar announcement from Sen. Dave Hansen, D-Green Bay, who said earlier this month that he would not seek re-election this year. While Hansen represents a swing district, Miller's Monona district leans more strongly Democratic.

__label__wiki	0.884043	0.884043	MPCA Photos (CC-BY-NC) Despite Record Demand For Frac Sand, Wisconsin Mines Shutting Down, Laying Off Workers Surge Of Texas Mines Pushing Wisconsin Frac Sand Out Of Nation's Busiest Oil Fields By Rich Kremer Thursday, October 4, 2018, 7:20pm ListenDownload Frac sand mines in Wisconsin are idling operations and laying people off despite a year of record demand for sand used to drill for oil and natural gas. Hi-Crush Proppants, Superior Silica Sands and Covia have announced they are scaling back production and cutting staff due to a changing frac sand market. Hi-Crush Proppants shuttered its sand drying facility in Whitehall and laid off 37 employees Sept. 28. In a letter to the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development, Hi-Crush general counsel Mark Skolos wrote the move was due to "unforeseen business circumstances." "We have no choice but to halt production at our Whitehall plant due to Industry wide conditions related to the drastic decrease in demand for sand and the derivative impact of these pressures on the sand industry," wrote Skolos. On Sept. 26, Covia announced it was shutting down mines across the Midwest including it’s operation in Menomonie due to "light market dynamics." In a press release, Covia CEO Jennifer Deckard wrote, "The idling of these facilities is a difficult, but necessary step, and we regret the impact that this has had on our people, their families and the local communities." In an interview with WPR, Superior Silica Sands CEO Rick Shearer said his company is laying off 20 employees at its sand drying plants in Wisconsin mainly due to an influx of new sand mines in Texas. Over the last two years, 15 new sand mines have begun operation near an oil-bearing shale formation known as the Permian Basin located in west Texas and eastern New Mexico. It’s home to the busiest oil fields in the United States and accounts for around 50 percent of the national demand for frac sand. Shearer said because energy companies can get Texas sand at a fraction of the cost of shipping it from Wisconsin, they're using more local product. "With the economics the way they are now and competing to some degree with in-basin sand, the prices for 'northern white' have been dramatically reduced," Shearer said. "That means that our margins are going to be suppressed substantially.” He said Superior Silica is focusing on building its customer base at oil fields in western Canada, North and South Dakota, Utah, Wyoming and Colorado. "We’re all scrambling to make that happen," said Shearer. "This doesn’t happen overnight. So, it does mean throttling back operations in our case and I think in most of our competitors’ case for producers like us in Wisconsin." Kent Syverson, chair of the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Geology Department, says while Texas sand has taken most of the market share in the Permian Basin, some companies still use Wisconsin sand for specific applications due to it’s roundness and ability to resist extreme pressures. But Syverson echoed Shearer’s sentiment that Wisconsin frac sand companies are best served developing basins across the northern half of the U.S. and into Canada. "So, the real question is how does demand hold up or increase in places like the Bakken, Canadian Prairies, Marcellus," said Syverson. "Because in those areas northern white sand is still cost advantaged and there is no way they can put lower quality Texas sand onto a train and bring it up to Bakken for less than what Wisconsin sand can go out there." Samir Nangia, a director of energy consulting at analytics firm IHS Markit, agrees with Syverson and Shearer, saying the U.S. frac sand market as gone through dizzying changes over the last few years. Nangia said while mines in Wisconsin returned to operation after a two-year lull in 2015 and 2016 they may be destined for mothballs again. "There’s probably a whole bunch of mines that had reopened because they just made money right now," Nangia said. "But they’ll probably need to shut down. So, unfortunately it does sound like it will be a little dire for Wisconsin sand for some time to come."

("The Ternion Prologue" ) I am looking for ratings and reviews involving character development, setting, flow, and anything else you think that would help. Chapter 4 - Zek Cain: Flight of the Adamant Zek stood against the wall of the dark classroom and waited for time to pass. His arm ached with a dull throb, but the excitement he felt in knowing that he was going to leave the city made the pain worthwhile. He knew that what he had done in the shadow classroom was wrong, but defending Mason had become such an instinct over the years that he had acted without a second thought. Zek felt guilty for having passed so much energy into the pompous Shadow Magus, but he had heard Mason cry out; he simply snapped and could not hold back his anger. He remembered looking at the world through shades of deep purple - the energy that had discharged from his hands was greater than he could have ever anticipated. It had taken a great effort to stop himself while the indigo energy zapped from his hands – it had formed jagged lines that blasted across the room to find their target. Zek had felt himself pour every insult and every wicked thought he had ever had about Magus Zeno into a single cast; the power flowed freely from him, and the sheer feeling of justification and righteousness was intoxicating. When it was all over, all eyes were fixed on the smoldering heap of pride that lay in the back of the room. Nobody had seen Zek's face while he struggled to pull himself out of the trance that the soul magic had left him in. He remembered the sound of his breath as it strained through gritted teeth, and the thirst he had felt to finish the mage off completely. When it fled, the feeling left a fear in Zek that he had never felt before. That fear was only a memory now, but Zek assured himself that with practice he would only have more control over this new power. He moved to the doorway and looked down the hall towards the exit. He saw a large mix of students and teachers near the doors. His first thought to just run quickly and exit by force - he knew nothing would stop him within these walls. A nagging feeling of emotion begged him to remain calm; he knew that if he was to hurt anyone on his way out that his friend would not forgive him so easily again. Zek had already pushed the limits of friendship too drastically over the last few days, and he decided to find another way. Patience was never one of his strongest virtues, but waiting for a clear exit seemed the best way to escape the university. He slunk back into the darkness and leaned against the wall once again; his sleeveless robe disappeared into the shadows of the dusky room. A group of students walked by - young children of probably ten to fourteen years by his estimate. They spoke to each other of the rumor that they had heard. Zek gathered that 'the most powerful mage in the school had attacked a teacher'. “The whole school is looking for him!” one of the young girls exclaimed. “He hurt a Magus, he should go to the Feltower,” a boy added. The children traveled out of sight, but Zek stood with a smile across his face. He was pleased that his rumor had already spread so far. He thought it was good that they had a final memory of him - a story to tell their future children as they went through the motions of life within the sad cage of Arc city. A long while had passed, and he noticed that the exit was not yet clear. Frustrated with the wait, he decided to act. He began to peer around the doorway again, while he slowly shimmered out of sight. The light bent around him, and he felt he had a good chance of walking out undetected. Taking a step from the room, he felt fingers dig into his shoulder and push him back to the darkness. He attempted to let out a sound, but a finger was pressed against his lips. “Zek Cain!” The woman started, with a familiar voice. “Magus Nylia--” Zek started. He wanted to warn her to stay back; he had no intent to harm someone who had been a friend to him. He faded back into sight and awaited the fast-talking instructor's impending lecture. “Don't speak, don't you even think. I just want you to listen,” the Magus interrupted. “It's not instructors behind that door Zek, there are Felguards out there. Felguards! Don't you understand?” “I under--” Zek attempted to reply. “Shut your mouth! I don't know exactly what you did, but if you won't go with them you will get killed trying to get past them. You are powerful, Zek, but you are not invincible,” Magus Nylia lectured. Her light blue robe was set tight against her skin, and even in the darkness Zek could make out her feminine curves. Zek had always felt comfortable near the instructor of water magics. Though she was slightly older than he was, he always had feelings for her. She had a fair face that made him look forward to attending her class, and deep blue eyes that he sometimes found himself lost in. For a moment, Zek forgot all about his current situation. “Are you listening to me?” she asked. “I appreciate your concern Nylia, I always have. I am going through the shield tonight. We can escape, and you can come away with us,” Zek replied. “My place is here, Zek. I have a decent life here. What you are trying is impossible – nothing can breach Orin's shield,” Nylia said. “I will help you get out of the university though, because I have seen what happens to the proud who would fight the Feltower. I pity you if they catch you.” “Don't worry about me – I can get out of here. Come away with me tonight, Nylia. Meet me by the old Drax estate at sunset. We will make it through the shield. I swear it,” Zek said. He shimmered out of sight again and bolted through the door. Zek raced away from the exit, and climbed the massive stone stairs that led to the second level. He stopped for a moment to look around. The upper level was nearly empty, and he started through the hall unnoticed. At the end of the hall lay a large balcony that overlooked the entrance and the streets of Arc. He ran towards it, and the invisibility left him while he summoned a great flow of wind to carry him away. He flew over the edge of the balcony and through the air. Over the main street he looked down and saw a large group of people who had been waiting for him to exit. He was clearly noticed as he flew overhead and fell toward the rooftops across the road. He created a small tornado at his feet that allowed him to land gently on the flat roof of a neighboring building. Zek turned his red gaze, and looked over the edge at the group. They scattered in an attempt to reorganize. He ducked quickly at a small orb of flame that flew toward him. Zek smiled, and shook his head. He turned toward the ancient district, and summoned another gust of wind that blew him skyward. His feet landed on a new rooftop, and as soon as he landed a new wind carried him to the next. In moments, he created a vast distance between himself and the university. He traveled to fulfill the secret bargain he had sworn to the exiles – their freedom given in exchange for the knowledge he needed. Although he was now a criminal, he was not about to add a broken oath to his conscience. He made his way toward the now familiar doorway that was hidden in the ancient ruins; he landed softly once again on the old path, which he found easier to navigate in the light of the suns. Zek made his way through the narrow alleyway. He stopped at the door and turned to the ruined wall that lay opposite. His eyes and hands burned a fiery red, and Zek etched into the wall an arcane symbol with a blast of flame. “Freedom, my brothers,” Zek said. He took a step back to examine his work. With his promise fulfilled, he had brought new hope to men forced to still live underground, and for that he was glad. His work done here, he turned back towards the center of the city. He wanted to pick up the few items he had prepared to take with him when he left the city, and then he would meet up with Mason and finally taste his own destiny. He prepared to lift himself from the ground once again. The air whipped the winds around him. His hands moved out to his sides. Before flight, Zek heard a curious sound in front of him, and he paused. His eyes moved to a strange brownish object that seemed to shine with the look of crystal in the sunlight. All at once, Zek felt panic rise in realization of what the object was. Nearly too late, he cast a shield in front of him. The object exploded, and shards of brown crystal moved through the air in all directions. The magical shield struggled against the few shards that connected with it; visible ripples moved throughout it. Zek had only heard stories of the Felguards, and even less of the methods they used to bring down their prey. He felt lucky that the rumor of the crystal grenade had reached him, and he was able to react in time. A shard of brown crystal would either kill him, or make him incapable of defending himself against their wrath. Zek stood in place with his shield. He awaited the next grenade, but it never came. Instead, four guards made their way around the corner in front of him. They spread themselves into a line, and blocked the path. The Felguards stood at varying heights of gigantic; their skin had a green tinge to it - a result of unnatural growth. It was said that the same green crystal used to grow trees within Arc was used on these brutes to give them strength. They stood musclebound and immense – a force bred to hunt the worst of the arcane. “You guys got here quick.” Zek said aloud, to no response. He was full of pride when he anticipated this encounter, but in their presence he could feel that courage waning. He stood strong. Each of the guards held their right arms toward him with fingers stretched toward the sky; their eyes began to glow in unison. They acted of a single mind, with the intent on dragging him back to the Feltower. Zek felt the air around him stir, and immediately a gust of air blasted him. His feet slid along the rocky ground. Zek struggled to hold his position against the torrent of wind; he dropped his shield spell, and he created a counter blast of wind at his back. He watched one of the guards cease his wind cast and began to stream flames from his hand. The fire was taken immediately to him in the powerful gale of wind. The blast licked over him for a moment, but Zek altered the path of his windstorm to take the flames into a fiery cyclone. The vortex dissipated as the guards gave up their casting. The four giants seemed to wear smiles. Zek guessed that most of the time their training was wasted on lesser mages, and they didn't often get to fight. He stared at the group and waited - they seemed to be conversing quietly amongst each other. “Zek Cain, you have been ordered to the Feltower by the Masters of the Arcane University!” The tallest of the Felguards proclaimed. “I am sorry to disappoint your masters, but I have other plans for tonight,” Zek retorted with a grin. His reaction seemed to please them, and he heard laughter while they readied themselves for another attack. “Very well,” the Felguard said. “We were told to expect a fight from you, I hope you do not disappoint us.” “I'm sure the disappointment will be all mine,” Zek taunted, and his eyes began to darken. The shadows of the ruins around him swelled, and they started to consume the light of day. Given that his crime was against Magus Zeno, he felt the darkness a more fitting setting for his victory. The guards advanced, and took long strides toward him. The scene loomed with shadow blackness which grew darker with each passing moment. Droplets of pure shadow broke away from the ground - they floated upward toward the sky. One of the guards attempted to radiate light, but it was quickly snuffed out by the thick darkness. Swirled tendrils rose like black smoke in the air around them. Zek smiled, and wondered what Magus Zeno would have thought to see his art in such a fantastic display. The world grew cold around them, and the guards had stopped their advance to begin working together. They held their arms aloft, and a bright flash exploded from them at once. It dissolved the shadows and disrupted Zek's focus. The ruins slowly reappeared, but the guards saw that Zek was not where they had left him. Zek floated overhead among winds that held him aloft masterfully. His sleeveless robe flapped about him as if he stood in a gentle breeze. The guards were clearly surprised, but they held their ground and began to launch small orbs of red fire toward him. Zek did not expect the Felguards to be so capable with each magic, but it was nothing out of his control. With eyes that shone yellow-brown, he formed a shield around him to block the onslaught. His opponents spread beneath him, and he felt his shield being struck repeatedly by bolts of energy. While three of the guards concentrated to weaken his shield by focusing their casts into it from the ground, the largest of the guards took to the sky. It appeared the guard meant to flee, or perhaps meant to distract him. Zek stayed vigilant while he struggled to hold his shield against the energy magic. The airborne Felguard changed direction and flew directly at him. Zek's eyes went wide; this was a tactic he did not anticipate. To drop his shield would mean the energy from below would reach him, but the shield would not stop the oversized arcane from crashing into him. Moments passed, and he felt panic rise up in his throat. Suddenly, his instinct took over and the world around him seemed to burn with a violet fury. His primal scream filled the air, and it trembled the ruined walls. Zek's fingers twisted, and his hands moved towards the flying Felguard. Zek dug his fingers into the face and eyes of his attacker, and he held tight with a supernatural strength. The shield that surrounded Zek rippled and wavered; it became infected by his rage and exploded outward. The force threw the guards who remained on the ground in all directions to crash into walls and rubble. The ground rose to meet Zek. His grip was held fast to the Felguard, and they fell spinning. The guard crashed into the ground first and absorbed the impact. Zek could feel the man's life drain away; it coursed through him, and before he realized it the head within his hands was nothing more than a skull. The body he rested upon was now little more than a husk. He stood slowly. His anger faded away, and his eyes became crimson once again. He spun to face the remaining guards, and saw that only one now stood. His head was slightly bowed and long strands of silver hair hung in front of his eyes. He looked upon the standing opponent with a silent challenge. The guard had eyes fixed on Zek's shoulder, and his expressions showed surprise. Zek looked down and saw that his wound had healed. “Run. Go to your Feltower and tell them what happened here, while you have your life,” Zek threatened. His unsmiling face twitched in anger. “You will not live to see the Feltower, exile,” the guard responded. “Here is where you will die!” “Nothing will stand in my way - not today!” Zek screamed. He sprinted toward the guard as fast as his legs could carry him. The guard stood his ground, and flames rose from his hands. Zek's eyes became a deep blue, and before he reached the guard his hands erupted with a violent torrent of water. The spray was propelled with such impact that the guard was laid onto his back once again. Zek stood with outstretched hands and animated the water to his will. He forced the liquid under the fallen Felguard, and created a column that forced the guard to stand. Zek halted his sprint, and his hands connected with his target's chest. The Felguard's soaked body was filled with sizzling energy. Zek's eyes crackled with bolts of amber energy. The screams of the guard drowned out all else, and Zek was deaf to the delicate sound of crystal that struck the ground behind him. A searing pain tore through Zek's body. Shards of brown crystal penetrated his flesh. The drenched guard had crumpled to the ground next to him. Zek saw that a shard of crystal had penetrated the eye of the guard, and he had stopped breathing. From behind the body, another Felguard approached slowly; dark blood ran from a gash along his forehead. Zek moved his hand toward his new target; he intended to blast him with flames and give himself time to recover. The brown crystal within his wounds glowed a fiery red and drank in his power; Zek could not summon even a hint of flame to his fingertips. Zek attempted to bring himself to stand, but the pain was too intense. His hand moved to his thigh, where a large shard of crystal protruded. His fingers wrapped around it, and he gritted his teeth while he pulled the bloody shard from his skin. With his leg wounded badly, he forced himself to stand. Warm blood pooled beneath him. He strained to reach behind his shoulder, and he pulled away another large chunk of crystal. The guard advanced on him. The guard's hand rose and began to glow with energy. Zek threw the sharp crystal that he still held, and it embedded itself in the palm of his approaching attacker. The guard cried out in pain, and he turned slightly while he tended to his maimed hand. Zek dashed forward with the sharp crystal from his other hand, and punctured the neck of his distracted foe. Blood cascaded through the air and rained across Zek's face. The guard fell onto the rubble at his feet. The scene in front of him was bleak, and Zek was still wounded. He looked skyward and saw that the suns were almost set. He moved away from any brown crystal he could see, and felt the air swirled around him. Once again he was able to command his magics. He lifted off the ground slowly, and he felt his power increase as he got further away. He had grown accustomed to hiding the majority of his abilities; the arcane had already given him too much fame and attention at his mastery over basic skills. He was done holding back his power, and saw no need to bound along rooftops any longer. Zek blasted himself skyward. The wind burned against his tender wounds. He stared at the last blue sunset he would have to watch from within the dome, and he cut through the light clouds above Arc city. He looked down, and he saw the city for what it was - tiny and unimportant compared to the expanse of Aura herself. He touched down in an empty street at the end of the market, and again he bent light around himself to blend into the environment. He decided to walk the rest of the way just to be sure he was not followed. There were no sounds to be heard as he came upon the Drax estate in the waning light, and his smile grew as he hobbled closer and closer to his destination. Zek ignored his pain, and he started to move faster in excitement. A familiar sound came from behind him, and he turned to find himself trapped within an explosion of crystal. The shards cut deep; indescribable pain blasted through his chest, and his blood cascaded outward. He fell backward onto the ground, and struggled to breathe. “You will pay for your crimes, Zek Cain,” Magus Zeno said. He wore white patches that shone through holes in his tattered robe. “Zeno... How?” Zek asked. His voice bubbled amidst the blood in his throat, and he struggled to remain conscious. “I have my secrets as well, exile. You flaunted your undeserved power for years, and had no respect for arcane who spent a lifetime honing their crafts,” the Magus lectured. “How did you find me?” Zek asked through labored breath. His teeth were stained red with his own blood, and his silver hair was caked with dirt. “You left a trail of blood behind you, in more ways than one. I knew you would run back to the Drax estate for your weakling friend. It was only a matter of time. Unlike you, Cain, I am a patient man,” The shadow mage answered. He stepped dangerously close. His hands moved in front of him, and they started to grow dark. “Justice comes to the deserving, Zek.” Zek's sight blurred. Blood poured from his body, and there was a gaping hole in his chest near his heart. His robe was charred and nearly destroyed. All hope left him, and he stared upward at the sky. A tear rolled down his cheek; it left a clean trail through the soot. He let himself go, and closed his eyes to let the world become black. Zek waited, but his release never came. A sound from above him snapped his eyes open once again, and he saw Zeno's had a pained expression. Protruding through his chest Zek, saw a thin shard of transparent crystal which was coated in bloody crimson. “I agree with you, teacher, justice comes to the deserving,” Mason said. He came into sight from behind the Zeno as he fell. Mason stood with a long shard of tapered crystal in his hand. The crystal blade was a relic of ancient history, it was originally designed by his grandfather as a decoration. Mason flourished the blade quickly and placed it across his back, under a strap from his satchel. “I told you not to get hurt, brother.” “...Just a scratch.” Zek said with a weak smile. His hand gripped onto Zeno's dying body which lay at his side. Zek used soul magic to heal his wounds; crystal shards fell from his limbs as the wounds healed. The hole in his chest burned like fire as it closed, but his skin looked pristine once again. “I didn't want to kill him, Zek, I had to,” Mason said. His eyes seemed full of regret. Zek saw that he was staring at the siphoned remains of his old teacher. “You just saved my life, Mason. You had no other choice, and I thank you,” Zek said. He grabbed Mason's outstretched hand to pull himself up. “If you had done anything less, you know he would have killed us both.” His arm wrapped around Mason's shoulders, and they began to move quickly towards the shield. They crossed the property lines of the Drax lands and came upon the wavering wall of magic. They looked through the azure barrier towards their destiny. Zek gave a final look behind them, and then his gaze fell upon the brother that stood beside him as always. He moved his hands against the shield and readied himself for his cast. The outside world beckoned him forth, and the only sound he heard was a heartbeat pounding in his ears. He felt his eyes flare with dark energy, and saw his hands glow against the shield. His hands began to sink within the blue surface. He smiled, and despite a pain that burned within his chest, he continued. Suddenly he felt himself losing focus, and his hands were pushed away. The purple glow around them flickered and faltered. Confused, he gritted his teeth and pushed his will once again. The pain in his chest grew more intense. He again made slow progress through the wall, and the blue shield became afflicted by his touch. All at once, he fell through the wall and landed on the cold ground outside. He spun and looked at Mason, who looked down at him through the discolored section of the wall. Zek watched as Mason's hands touched the shield and passed through it with ease. The look upon his face was priceless; he stepped into the cold air outside the bubble and looked at the true colors that surrounded them. Zek raised himself from the ground with his hand over his chest. He examined his skin the with expectation of a new wound to pay for his soul-cast. He saw nothing but smooth skin. With horror, he realized that the pain he had felt was not caused by the soul magic, and a fragment of crystal must have remained within him. Brown crystal would sap his ability, and it explained the trouble he had while attempting to breach the shield. Zek looked down at his hands, and he attempted to will forth the familiar flames that had always come so easy to him. He watched his hands glow for a moment, and then he felt the crystal burn from within his chest. He willed away the fire, and the pain faded. With the shard so close to his heart, he knew a large enough cast could be his last. He looked to Mason, who stood watching him with a curious expression on his face. “What's wrong Zek?” Mason asked. “...The shield is fractured, and we need to move,” Zek replied.

Gerrit Cole (7-2) struck out seven in seven efficient innings. Mark Melancon worked the ninth for his 12th save as Pittsburgh completed an eight-game homestand with a flourish. The Pirates spent five innings getting handcuffed by Miami starter Brad Hand but jumped on relievers Mike Dunn and Sam Dyson (2-2). Justin Bour and Christian Yelich hit solo homers for the Marlins, who fell to 2-8 under manager Dan Jennings. Miami had been 12-0 when leading after six innings but were swept for the sixth time this season when Pittsburgh got going. Hand, pressed into his first start of the season when injuries forced Henderson Alvarez and Mat Latos to the disabled list, kept the Pirates off balance. Pittsburgh managed just four hits with Hand on the mound and Miami appeared to be in decent shape when Bour and Yelich both sent Cole offerings into the seats in right field to stake the Marlins to a 2-0 lead. It quickly unraveled in the seventh. Less than 24 hours after scoring all of their runs with two outs in a 5-1 victory, Pittsburgh again found a way to deliver a series of clutch hits. Dunn retired the first two batters he faced in the seventh before Chris Stewart singled. Pinch-hitter Jose Tabata then smacked a grounder to second base that deflected off Dee Gordon's glove and into shallow center field. Dyson took over for Dunn and promptly gave up a single to Harrison that brought Pittsburgh to 2-1. Pinch-hitter Alvarez beat the shift by slashing a single through the left side of the infield to tie the game. Andrew McCutchen walked to load the bases. Usually free-swinging Starling Marte - who leads the Pirates in strikeouts - then worked the count full against Dyson and held off on a breaking ball that dipped out of the strike zone to force home Harrison and give the Pirates the lead. Kang lined a single over Gordon's glove to push Pittsburgh's advantage to 5-2. The rally pushed Cole into a tie with Bartolo Colon and Michael Wacha for the National League lead in victories. UP NEXTPittsburgh begins a 10-game road trip on Thursday night when it begins a four-game set in San Diego. A.J. Burnett (4-1, 1.37) will look for his fifth straight win. The 38-year-old leads the majors in ERA and gave up one run in seven innings, striking out 10 last Saturday against the Mets.

__label__cc	0.710925	0.289075	Thesis subject Mapping secondary metabolic pathways The Plant physiology group currently runs a project in which metabolic pathways producing secondary metabolites are systemically mapped by genetic engineering of Nicotiana benthamiana. The goal is to produce perrilic acid, a precursor for the commodity chemical terephthalic acid, in planta [1]. To this end, a number of genes coding for enzymes are transiently expressed in N. benthamiana and tested for activity. As the factors influencing and regulating the pathway producing perrilic acid the availability of precursors, enzymatic activity, transport, sequestration are mostly unknown, this task is not straightforward. In this project, the challenge will be to develop a simple model of the regulation of this pathway. Combining data found in literature (the BRENDA database on enzyme activities), pathway databases (Plant Reactome, KEGG) and available metabolomics data would provide an initial metabolic pathway layout. This model could help formulate hypothesis on pathway regulation; measurements resulting from directed genetic interventions in N. benthamiana could then be used to verify these hypotheses and extend the model.

Credit: WWL-TV Author: Osama Ayyad Published: 9:31 AM CDT March 29, 2020 Updated: 4:08 PM CDT March 29, 2020 NEW ORLEANS — The Notre Dame Health System, which includes three senior living facilities in the New Orleans area, has been struggling to prevent the spread of coronavirus infections because of a lack of access to personal protective gear, administrators said Saturday. Chateau de Notre Dame, the Our Lady of Wisdom Health Care Center, and Wynhoven Health Care Center have not been able to get more personal protective equipment (PPE). Chateau de Notre Dame was named as a coronavirus "cluster" by the Louisiana Department of Health, meaning they found multiple related cases of coronavirus in the facility. In a post on the health system's website on Saturday, Plaisance said the only way the facilities could reduce the risk of infection to residents was to limit the number of people entering the facility, screening staff and residents for fevers or COVID-19 symptoms. "We need to be clear in stating that our staff is doing their very best to prevent infection to residents in an environment with almost no (PPE) 'personal protective equipment.,'" Plaisance said. "When you hear PPE on the broadcasts, know that we are among those working to provide staff with some level of protection." RELATED: New Orleans asks residents, businesses to donate protective gear for first-responders RELATED: Bobby Hebert Sr., father of former Saints quarterback, dies after testing positive for coronavirus But isolating patients after COVID-19 symptoms are apparent might not be the answer. "When symptoms are present it is already too late because now we know that people without symptoms can infect others," Plaisance said. "At this time, we are in a battle against an enemy, we do not know. It takes weeks to get results if the test is allowed." Citing the overwhelming number of patients at hospitals, Plaisance said residents sent to hospitals are often sent back to the living facilities. "As we send residents from nursing homes to hospitals, many are returned to the facility with instructions to quarantine for 14 days," Plaisance said. "This is a difficult task for those in semi-private rooms. We have also had to face hospitals not communicating with the facility." RELATED: Harahan nursing home confirmed as 11th Louisiana coronavirus cluster RELATED: Track COVID-19: Louisiana Coronavirus Outbreak Map Plaisance said promises of relief from state and federal agencies haven't been fulfilled. "We have welcomed representatives from the Center for Disease Control and LA Department of Public Health, all want to be helpful," Plaisance said. "Relief is promised but nothing has arrived." In an attempt to get appropriate personal protective gear to handle coronavirus in the facilities, the institution began reaching to other suppliers. The living centers will begin isolating patients in 10 private rooms in a separate building at one of their facilities. "So we have decided to rely on ourselves to reach out to industrial suppliers and have a very limited supply of personal protective equipment that will get us started in moving a resident with symptoms to a separate building behind Wynhoven Health Care Center," Plaisance said. ► Get breaking news from your neighborhood delivered directly to you by downloading the FREE WWL-TV News app now in the IOS App Store or Google Play. ‎New Orleans News from WWL ‎Stay up-to-date with the latest news and weather in the New Orleans area on the all-new free WWL TV app. Our app features the latest breaking news that impacts you and your family, interactive weather and radar, and live video from our newscasts and local events.

The country embodies the modern face of Arabia but still preserves its ancient soul. Ravishing, adventurous and wild… Enjoy the exotic flavor of Arabia. Adventures in Oman Oman has become one of the top destinations in the world for scuba diving. The country’s interest in environment and conservation efforts are strongly reflected in the state of its coasts, islands and waters, where new dive sites are discovered every week. There are two main diving areas in the country: the South coast on the Indian Ocean and the North coast on the Gulf of Oman; both areas alternate seasons and completely differ from each other. The dive sites in the south are enormously abundant in fish with fantastic reefs, shipwrecks and kelp forests in the summer. The dive sites in the north include the spectacular Dimaniyat Islands, Oman’s only Marine Reserve, famous for its beautiful coral gardens frequented by whale sharks. Other areas in the north are no less beautiful with amazing shipwrecks, high abundance of fish, colorful walls and coral gardens. Discover Muscat Muscat is the capital of the Sultanate of Oman and one of the jewels of the Arabian Peninsula. It is a perfect mix of modernity and authenticity with a very welcoming and tolerant attitude towards foreigners. Unlike its neighbors, Muscat keeps a discreet vibe and traditional slow-paced lifestyle. It is a very interesting city with several areas to discover like the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, the Muttrah Souq and Al Qurm seaside. The city enjoys a key location along the coast of the Gulf of Oman and it is the start point for all sorts of adventures around the country. Secluded bays, isolated beaches and empty islands are some of the natural wonders that can be discovered from Muscat. The Mountain of the Sun Jebel Shams, in English “Mountain of Sun”, located in northeastern Oman is the third highest mountain in the Arabian Peninsula. It is located 240 Km away from Muscat, making it a fantastic road trip and a jaw-dropping sightseeing area. There are several hiking trails and 4WD tracks in and around the area with breathtaking views of the whole Al-Hajar Mountains. Wonders of the Arabian Peninsula Nizwa Fort, Oman’s most visited national monument is located 160 Km southwest of Muscat. The fort was built between the 12th and 17th centuries to defend the city against invasion attempts. Today it is a remainder of Oman’s history and a great example of local traditional architecture. From the town of Nizwa, another cool spot to visit is the impressive Al-Hoota cave. Estimated to be over 2 million years old, it is the only show cave in the Arabian Peninsula with a total length of around 4.5 kilometers that includes a rare ecosystem with four lakes. Several animals can be found in the cave such as blind fish, bats, arthropods, mollusks, spiders, snails and water beetles. The whole area has breathtaking sceneries with several hiking and 4WD paths in the surrounding mountains. Venturing into the Snake Canyon Wadi Bani Awf, one of Oman’s largest valleys, is an extraordinary area full of natural wonders, archaeological sites and picturesque villages. The best part of the valley is a section known as the Snake Canyon, an area where where the ground seems to break, creating a huge crack on the rock resembling the body of a snake. Dramatic cliffs, tight passages, huge boulders and blue pools of fresh water make of this place Oman’s greatest adventure. A sensational mix of canyoning, hiking, rappelling, cliff diving and swimming. (It is strongly advisable to do it with an experienced guide). The Green Mountain Jebel Akhdar, in English “The Green Mountain”, is one of the highest points in Oman and eastern Arabia. Located 155 Km southwest of Muscat, it is part of the Al-Hajar mountains and even though the area is predominantly desert, the mountain is covered in shrubs and trees as moist is gathered at high altitudes. Traditional rose water and fruits like pomegranates, apricots, grapes and peaches are produced through the use of irrigation channels and a terraces system created by the local farmers. A great place to experience this unique way of agriculture is Wakan, a small mountain village located 2,000 meters above sea level with beautiful gardens overlooking the surrounding mountains. On the way to Jebel Akhdar is Nakhal Fort, an emblematic construction from pre-Islamic times built to protect the area and trade routes from Arab invasions. Its surroundings are abundant with palm trees as well as hot springs. Wadi Shab, the secrets of the oasis. Wadi Shab, is an astounding gorge situated between towering desert mountain. The oasis with its palm trees and crystal clear waters is an incredible experience. After a 40 min hike, the wadi rewards its visitors with a swim in turquoise natural pools. Following the source of the water, a cave greets the eyes with a stunning hidden waterfall. Another beautiful spot in the area is the Bimmah sinkhole, an alluring blue hole in the middle of the desert perfect for swimming and snorkeling. The drive along the coast is not less impressive, Fins beach with its electric blue sea offers the perfect scenery for ending a fantastic adventure. The endless dunes of the Empty Quarter Rub’ al-Khali, in English “The Empty Quarter”, is the largest area of continuous sand in the world. It covers about 650,000 square kilometers (the size of France approximately) and it’s shared by Saudi Arabia, Oman, the UAE and Yemen. It is one of the driest places in the world with day temperatures rising up to 60ºC and night temperatures dropping down below zero. These extreme weather conditions have kept it practically isolated for hundreds of years. Only a few living creatures can bear the harsh environment. Animals such as black camels, arachnids, insects, mice and the shy sandfish can be found in the desert, where endemic shrubs grow slowly as a result of their high adaptations to the hyper-arid climate. It is nature in its purest forms with outlandish landscapes, extraordinary games of light and endless blissful silence. The Empty Quarter holds breathtaking adventures. Enjoy a 4WD desert safari, an exciting camel ride or an overnight camp on the dunes. It is the perfect place to experience the bedouin life, learning about their lifestyle and listening to some epic legends of old Oman. Magical Khareef Dhofar, the largest Governorate of the Sultanate of Oman, is located in the south of the country. It undergoes what one of the most dramatic transformation in the planet. Every year between June and September, the Khareef arrives in Dhofar, when the southeast monsoon reaches this little corner of the Arabian Peninsula, converting the desert into a lush green land. The rainfall and moist received through enormous masses of clouds coming from the Indian Ocean make of this place a tropical paradise that differs completely from the rest of the peninsula. Hills covered in baobab trees and endemic vegetation, as well as beautiful seasonal plants can be found in the area; not to mention the last Arabian leopards that still roam secretly in the mountains of Dhofar. Explore Salalah Salalah is the capital of the Dhofar Governorate and it is the precious gem of Oman. Its strategic location has made it a key point for traders for thousands of years. Situated in the south of the country, along the coast of the Indian Ocean, the city enjoys a blissful tropical climate proper for growing different kinds of tropical fruits and vegetables.

Last week’s article looked at the district’s plan at that time, and this week explores community thoughts. With the COVID-19 pandemic continuing to spread in our community and region, and the 2020–21 school year scheduled to begin in a mere six weeks, uncertainty and worry seem to be the overwhelming feelings among many families considering educational choices for their children. “Right now, there is so much unknown and changing. It’s very difficult to gauge levels of risk,” a parent of three local students wrote in an anonymous survey conducted by the school district at the beginning of summer break. Similar sentiments were shared by others in the survey and have continued to be expressed through the summer on social media and in recent interviews with local parents. The school district’s plan continues to evolve as well. On July 1, Superintendent Terri Holden notified families that the district intended to offer two options when school opens Aug. 27 — typical full-day in-person classes or all-online instruction likely provided by a contracted service. The plan did not include a blended option, which would combine in-class and online lessons. A return to brick and mortar classrooms also reflected Gov. Mike DeWine’s expectations that schools reopen this fall. At the most recent regular school board meeting last week, Holden reiterated the district’s intention to resume regular classes, but added the plan was relevant, “at 7:16 p.m. Thursday, July 9,” the time and date she was speaking. “I would be lying if I say I’m confident about what’s going to happen,” Holden said. Then, on Monday, July 13, the superintendent sent out a new letter and survey to families offering a revised set of options for the upcoming academic year. “In the two weeks that have transpired [since the July 1 letter to families], the landscape both nationally and in Ohio has changed,” Holden wrote. “Cases of COVID-19 are increasing. To that end, we will be changing our approach in the fall.” A full-time return has been taken off the table and replaced with a hybrid option combining in-person with online instruction. The district is considering one of two scenarios. The first allows families to decide between the proposed hybrid model and online instruction provided through a contracted service. The second scenario is a fully online experience for all students led by Yellow Springs teachers delivering the curriculum. In the meantime, the Yellow Springs Education Association, the local teachers union, sent a letter to the superintendent and school board late Tuesday expressing teachers’ strong feeling against a return to in-person classes this fall. “The Yellow Springs Education Association stands united in the belief that a 100% virtual option for our community is the only solution to begin the school year,” the letter states. “The variables and risks that present themselves in our current climate indicate that it is not the time to return to in-person education experiences with our students.” The district’s suggested hybrid plan would divide students into two groups, A or B, with one group attending in-person classes on Mondays and Thursdays and the other attending Tuesdays and Fridays. Wednesdays would be a day for deep cleaning, according to Holden’s letter. Under this plan, middle school students will be housed in the Antioch University Midwest building, allowing for more physical distancing at that facility and the middle/high school campus. Monday’s survey letter asks families to select their preferred option — hybrid, online service or online with local teachers. The deadline for responses, originally set for Monday, July 20, has been extended to Friday, July 24, following a newly scheduled virtual town hall meeting with the superintendent from 6 to 7 p.m. July 20. Based on the survey results, the district will choose between the two basic scenarios: 1) families choose between a hybrid model and a contracted online service or 2) all students study online with Yellow Springs teachers. First survey In announcing earlier this month the district’s then intention of returning students to class full time with the start of the new school year, Holden wrote that the decision was based in large part on results of a survey sent out to families at the end of the 2019–20 school year. That survey, which received 247 responses between May 27 and June 10, asked families about their experiences with the online content presented this spring, their needs should online instruction continue in the fall, their concerns about in-person classes and the learning option they anticipated choosing for their children. The options presented at that time were: returning to the classroom with the possibility of blended (part in-person, part online) instruction, staying online until the environment feels safer, or remaining online until a vaccine is available. “Unsure at this time” was a fourth choice. At that time, just over half of the respondents, 130 (52.6%) indicated they planned to send their children to school for in-person and blended instruction, while 71 (28.7%) said they were unsure of their plans. The rest planned to continue online, at least for now. Concerns about the virus Uncertainty and concern dominated the survey comments, even among those who said they planned to send their children back to school this fall. “[There are] so many unknowns about COVID transmission at this time, wrote the parent of a high schooler, who indicated their plan for the student’s return nonetheless. The parent of two Mills Lawn students who chose “unsure” about their plans also wrote about the unknowns. “The lack of a vaccine or proven treatment makes it difficult to put our kids at risk,” they said. Another parent, who anticipated pursuing online instruction for their three children for now, detailed similar feelings. “I am concerned about students and teachers being in close proximity to each other and sharing germs potentially dangerous to their health. I am concerned for the teachers. … I am concerned for the youngest students given their nature to interact closely with others and inability to follow rules as well as most adults. I am concerned that in spite of our best efforts, in-person schooling will lead to the increased spread of coronavirus in our community and long-term negative health effects or even loss of life for community members.” And another parent of two Mills Lawn students who indicated uncertainty about their eventual plans noted their doubt in children’s ability to comply with necessary precautions. “I have full faith that THE SCHOOL will take all possible precautions, but I’m not confident in how well children will be able to follow them,” they wrote. Conversely, another parent of three wrote that they had no qualms about sending their children back to school, but on the condition that they be allowed to go without masks and their physical activity not be restricted. “I have absolutely no concerns whatsoever when it comes to health and safety,” the parent wrote. “My concerns come from what I feel to be drastic and unnecessary measures taken to avoid a virus and germs that we are not afraid of. I will not allow my children to attend a school where masks are mandatory and extracurriculars/playground time are prohibited. I do not believe at all that would be in the best interest of our children.” In recent phone interviews with different parents, a common theme was anxiousness to know more details about what to expect while trying to be patient until the details are available. “I’m withholding judgment,” Caryn Diamond, the mother of three said. “I know that if things are like they are right now, I would feel very nervous sending my kids to school.” Diamond noted that her younger son, Noah, a rising seventh grader, has asthma, and having a cold can turn to pneumonia. She wants to ensure her kids stay healthy, but she worries that the U.S. doesn’t have enough available resources. She pointed out that other countries battling the disease have taken such actions as disinfecting children’s backpacks and shoes each time they come to school. “We don’t even have enough tests,” she said. Holly Underwood, whose son, Zach, also is going into seventh grade, said she is grateful that her son has no underlying health issues, but she is still hesitant about sending him back to school. “Right now, today, I wouldn’t send him on Monday,” she said. “But in six weeks? … It’s a moving target.” Underwood said she and her husband, Tom, would feel better if they had a chance to see classroom arrangements and safety precautions first-hand before the doors officially opened. “Even if we could just peer through a window, that would help my comfort level,” she said. Lori Kuhn said her 16-year-old daughter — the last of her three children in the Yellow Springs Schools — has a variety of concerns. Among them are whether other students will follow prescribed safety precautions, and how an already overcrowded lunchroom will function. At the same time, she’s “not crazy about the idea of wearing a mask for seven hours a day.” “We’re trying to keep an open mind, recognizing that this continues to be a highly dynamic situation and probably will be for quite a few more months and maybe even another year,” Kuhn said. For Erin George, the mother of a rising first grader, her concerns are more about her son not being able to return to school. Online instruction didn’t compare to the in-person learning he received in Linnea Denman’s kindergarten class, George said. She said he had a palpable bond with his teacher and thrived on the social relationships in school. “When COVID broke out, it was really distressing for him not to be in school,” she said. She noted that he was now “pretty well versed” in wearing a mask, and she has “faith that our educators will talk to the children in ways that are meaningful to them to understand the rules and why they’re important.” George also said that she and her husband were able to manage having their son home from school this spring while they both worked full time, but that isn’t sustainable. They don’t have continuing viable childcare options, she said. She said she is grateful that the district is trying to take into account the different circumstances affecting families. A point of note in the surveys is that the handful of respondents who said they did not have internet access at home all indicated they planned to send their children to school in the fall, though they did not say whether the absence of internet was the reason for their decision. Having an adequate educational model in place is also among the concerns of parents. Online instruction figures heavily in the newest learning options now being presented by the district. And both survey results, representing more than half of the 460-some families in the district, and parent interviews revealed a strong feeling that the district needs to improve on the content offered this spring. The survey offered three assessment choices: “Great, given the situation!”; “OK, but I expect future distance learning opportunities to be better”; and “I was not a fan and think it can be better.” About 44% of respondents (109) chose “Great, given the situation!” But the majority wanted better, with about 40% (97) choosing “OK, but…” and about 17% (41) selecting “not a fan.” Diamond said her children were able to make it work because they “are all older and really self-motivated.” But it wasn’t satisfying, she added. “They did not enjoy it like they do being at school with their teacher and their friends,” she said. “It wasn’t enough work. It was too easy. They weren’t as challenged.” “I hate to criticize anything,” she continued. “I think the teachers and the administrators did an amazing job,” given the circumstances. But she hopes for better with the new school year, along with avenues for the performing arts, which she said are of high importance to her whole family. Underwood said Zach “did OK with the online instruction,” but she felt he missed out on the deeper engagement that comes with being present in school. Most survey respondents who expressed satisfaction with the online curriculum didn’t include comments about their experience, while those who were unhappy with the instruction offered a variety of responses. “There was nothing positive about the remote learning experience,” wrote one parent. “I appreciate the thought and consideration that went into it, but both parents in my child’s life have demanding careers. As soon as my child was no longer in the classroom, he did not care about school. Literally, my six-year-old said he would rather fail first grade than do those assignments.” While one respondent said that talking to parents in other districts led her to appreciate what Yellow Springs had to offer, two said they felt the local plan came up short in comparison to others. “I appreciate Mills Lawn’s approach to make distance learning unstressful,” wrote one, “but my daughter received zero instruction. Most area schools posted daily video instruction, followed by individual practice, and available virtual office hours where students could request help or get clarification. None of this was offered. … There was no rigor and no attempt to bring the curriculum to an online format. I was highly disappointed by this.” The parent of a high school student also wanted more rigor. “I was very disappointed by the assignments presented to my 10th grader,” they wrote. “I understand that moving to an online format for learning was not going to be an easy task, but the work he was assigned was not academic at all.” Difficulty working with the software, especially for younger children, was another challenge. A parent of three students at Mills Lawn wrote, “My second grader could not navigate Google Classroom well at all and needed a lot of parental help, but I think he could have been independent on Seesaw [the platform used by kindergarteners]. … Please, please consider using it for all early elementary classes!” Parents also wrote that more interaction with teachers would have helped in overseeing or monitoring their children’s assignments. “It was sometimes difficult for me as a parent to know what the assignments were and when they were due,” one respondent wrote about their middle schooler’s work. “My student seemed to understand this but did not communicate it clearly to me. It would be helpful to know more about where to look for assignments from each teacher.” A number of respondents commented unfavorably on the discontinuation of certain classes during the spring quarter, including chemistry, physics and foreign languages. But among the criticisms was also a listing of benefits, besides the health safety of being home. Several respondents wrote that they appreciated the opportunity to spend more time together as a family. Others said their children responded positively to having more flexible schedules, including the ability to sleep later. Some students found value in becoming more independent in their learning and being able to pursue more personal interests. Parent Lori Kuhn wonders whether this time of re-envisioning what school will look like this fall might not open up the chance to look at the bigger picture of education’s future. “This is a wonderful opportunity to reimagine what public education can be like,” she said.

Khedira has no issue with Andrea Pirlo’s decision making, insisting it is a coach’s right to head in any direction they wish, but wants to be back on the field. The 33-year-old has been linked with Everton and Tottenham, having worked under Toffees coach Ancelotti and Spurs boss Mourinho earlier in his career, and he says talks have taken place. The Premier League is an attractive option for the midfielder, and is hopeful Juve can help ease his way out of Turin. “If the opportunity arises to move to the Premier League, that's an option,” Khedira told ZDF.

BOWIN P8-118-72 Warwick Farm debut - Photo courtesy of Tony Glenn The Bowin car company was founded in 1968 by John Vincent Joyce (1938 - 2002), a successful designer and builder of racing cars and in later years gas appliances incorporating LO-NOx Technology. John Joyce travelled to England and joined as a Project Engineer, later to become the company's Chief Development Engineer during the mid to late 60's. While at Lotus_Cars his responsbilities included design and development of all aspects of formula type race cars; Indianapolis_500 , sports, rally and high performance road cars. His projects at Lotus Cars included the famed Lotus_Europa Lotus_41 and Lotus Type 40. On return to Australia in 1968 he started his own company, Bowin Designs Pty. Ltd., which designed and built racing cars for sale in Australia. Fifty six cars were built in total between 1968 and 1976. During this period he carried out several projects for Ford Motor Company and Leyland Motors on suspension design, to improve road holding of Ford Falcon, Ford Escort and Morris Marina known in Australia as the Leyland Marina. Approximately ten racing cars were sold for export to Canada, New Zealand and South East Asia. Bowin Cars have raced successfully in these countries as well as Europe.[1] Bowin Cars are best remembered for dominating the Australian Formula Ford Championship with 16 podium finishes from 1970 - 1983 (Formula Ford Championship Ranking). It tookthe UK car maker, Van Diemen until 1993 to surpass Bowin's all-time Australian Formula Ford Championship ranking. Bowin Cars still stand as the best Australian built Formula Ford,winning a total of four Australian Formula Ford Championships in 1972, 1974, 1976, 1978. The company also built and competed in the & Formula 5000 class, however, the cars were never able to achieve the same success as it had in Formula Ford. A handful of these historical Australian cars of the 60's & 70's can still be seen racing in Australia & Canada today. In 1976, when the demand for racing cars declined in Australia, the company changed its core business, branching out into making a wide variety of appliance products from a new type of industrial cookers called the set n forget cooker to railway lighting systems. In the early 1980's the company concentrated its design, engineering and entrepreneurial expertise on developing a range of gas appliance products for domestic, institutional and light commercial markets world wide.In 1985 a modern gas appliance manufacturing facility was built replacing the old car factory site. During this time the company won a contract to supply gas-heating systems to government schools in Australia with a gas burner designed to reduce emission and improve air quality called the LO-NOx burner John Joyce the founder of Bowin Cars died of a heart attack in June 2002 and is survived by his wife Pam and three sons.

Armentrout @jennw23 @JLArmentrout Moonlight Scandals: a de Vincent novel from New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout is available now! Amazon: https://amzn.to/2DdOLiz * Scroll for more buy links It takes a fearless woman to love the most scandalous man alive in New York Times Bestselling Author Jennifer L. Armentrout’s breathtaking novel Even a ghost hunter like Rosie Herpin couldn’t have foreseen the fateful meeting between two mourners that has brought her so intimately close to the notorious and seductive Devlin de Vincent. Everyone in New Orleans knows he’s heir to a dark family curse that both frightens and enthralls. To the locals, Devlin is the devil. To Rosie, he’s a man who’s stoking her wildest fantasies. When a brutal attack on her friend is linked to the de Vincents, he becomes a mystery she may be risking her life to solve. Devlin knows what he wants from this sexy and adventurous woman. But what does Rosie want from him? It’s a question that becomes more pressing—and more dangerous—when he suspects her of prying into the shadows of his past. Now, the legends surrounding the de Vincents may not be myths at all. But if she’s to discover the truth, she must follow them straight into the arms of the man she can’t resist—the handsome devil himself What an amazing book! This by far was the most anticipated book for me in this series and it held up to all my dreamy expectations. Every book in this series has been just perfectly fitting for each brother, but I am kinda partial to the gorgeous a-holes with a fortress of walls around them... because you know for a fact that you’ll enjoy every minute of watching that facade crumble. This was definitely the case for Devlin as Rosie worms her way under his skin and into his life. The push and pull from the two of them is so magnetic and exciting. You never know what will come out of each other’s mouths or how they’ll react to one another. This hate-to-love type of angst and electricity is addictive and I couldn’t put this book down! I highly recommend this series! reviewed by Sweet Spot Sisterhood How does one describe the de Vincent's without sounding like a giggling school girl!?! Lucian with his charming self and beguiling eyes. Gabe and his broken-hearted existence making you want to hold him. But Devlin, Devlin has secretly been my hidden delight, a hidden bar of chocolate that you often look at but decide it isn't the right time for. (No judging the hidden chocolate!) Devlin is a complicated dark chocolate with Mango woven in. He's decadent. He's forbidden. He's everything you desire but tell yourself you would never need. He's too much yet a tiny sampling will never be enough. Devlin de Vincent is the whole package and more. The only problem is that his outer wrapping is surrounded by Gorilla tape. It's almost impenetrable. Almost. His tightly woven world is slipping with all these secrets, doubts, and conspiracies. Secrets, secrets everywhere. The de Vincent's secrets are the stuff every reporter dreams of finding. They are the stuff nightmares are made of. They are going to be ripped open for every reader to see. Your thoughts, fears, and answers are just pages away. But ever after...that you will need to see! I love the complexities of this family. I love the paranormal vibe, but with the doubters' edge. It makes it seem more real. It gives an edge to the story while satisfying both believer and nonbelievers. I love that though this takes place in South you feel like you are right there. (It's currently -17 F where I live with the 30 mph winds so the South sounds perfect right now!) As always, the author has given us a family to want to call our own, a group to call friends, and a need to belong. So whether you like the charmer, the broody artist or the seemingly unfeeling mysterious older brother...the de Vincent's will capture your heart before you even realize it was available.

__label__cc	0.571102	0.428898	Wishing it was true doesn't make it true--it makes you a chump who fell for the con. Once upon a time in America, no adult could survive without possessing a finely tuned BS detector. Herman Melville masterfully captured America's fascination with cons and con artists in his 1857 classic The Confidence-Man, which I discussed in The Con in Confidence (October 4, 2006). An essential component of the American ethos is: don't be a chump. Don't fall for the con. And if you do, it's your own fault. The Wild West wasn't just thieves shooting people in the back (your classic "gunfight" in the real West)--it was a simmering stew of con artists, flim-flammers and grifters exploiting the naive, the trusting and the credulous. We now inhabit a world where virtually everything is a con. That "organic" produce from some other country--did anyone test the soil the produce grew in? It could be loaded with heavy metals and be certified "organic" because no pesticides were used during production. But what about last year? And the year before? What's in the water used to irrigate the crops? The employment/unemployment statistics are obviously BS. 93 million people aren't even counted any more--they're statistical zombies, no longer among the living workforce. If the unemployment rate were calculated on the number of full-time jobs and the true workforce (everyone ages 18 - 70 that isn't institutionalized or in prison), the unemployment rate would not be the absurdly delusional 5.6% claimed by the bureaucratic con artists. The corrupts-everything-it-touches bribe vacuum known as Hillary Clinton is still disgracing the national stage, 24 years after she first displayed her con-artist colors. Hillary's most enduring accomplishment is the Clinton Foundation--a glorification of bribery, chicanery, flim-flam and cons so outrageously perfected that it serves up examples of every con known to humanity in one form or another. And as she learned from hubby Bill--if the smarmy charm-con fails, quickly revert to veiled threats. "You'll never work in this town again!" Hillary would fit right into Melville's river boat teeming with con-artists. The accent she uses on the marks--oops, I mean audience--changes as readily as the camouflage on a chameleon. Upper Midwest, Noo Yawk, Fake-Southern--what you hear depends on the credulity of her marks. The entire American political system is a con, a sleazy mix of legalized bribes, auctioning off of favors, revolving doors between government agencies and the corporations they enrich and the blatant hypocrisy of snake-oil salespeople who know the marks (voters) face a false choice between two parties that are the same poison sold under different labels. Which brings us to China, one of the greatest credit bubble and financial cons ever. Please examine this chart of the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSEC). Clearly, there is no upper limit to the Chinese stock market: 5,000 today, 10,000 next week, 50,000 the following month and 100,000 shortly thereafter. The sky's the limit, Baby! That China's credit machine is now dependent on a stock market bubble for its very survival speaks volumes about the true health of China's economy. This dependence was recently explained in Why China Is So Desperate To Blow The Most Epic Stock Bubble. Everybody who thinks China's economy is healthy because its stock market is soaring has been suckered. Every good con-man/ con-woman knows that the con only works if the chump/mark wants to believe the impossible is true--that the snake-oil remedy will actually cure their ailments, that the "hope" candidate will actually change the corrupt system from the inside (ha-ha, they fell for it), and that China's economy is on its way to becoming the world leader in everything. Many people want to believe this fantasy because it suits their agenda: For American pundits, China isn’t a country. It’s a fantasyland. But wishing it was true doesn't make it true--it makes you a chump who fell for the con. We want to believe our political system isn't an unreformable cesspool, that our economy is a vibrant creator of new middle class jobs and that China will manage the greatest credit bubble in history without a hitch. But these are all cons put over to protect the wealth and power of those benefiting from the con. If your BS detector isn't shrieking, it's broken. You've been conned. Wake up. Thank you, Bert D. ($75), for your monstrously generous contribution to this site-- I am greatly honored by your support and readership.	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2367

Photo Courtesy: Sandy McAnally By Frank LaCosta Arkansas State Red Wolves vs Ball State Cardinals Sunday – January 5 – 8:00 PM Ladd-Peebles Stadium – Mobile Arkansas State comes into this bowl for its third consecutive GoDaddy Bowl appearance. In other word, the team and its fans are quite familiar with the confines of Ladd-Peebles Stadium. Even though this game is technically on neutral ground the Red Wolves in a sense might feel that they have a “home field” advantage. Ball State on the other hand has already accrued 10 wins for the season and are looking for a win to complete to a nice season. Arkansas State, for the third straight season will be without the head coach that helped guide them here. In 2011 it was Hugh Freeze who left for Ole Miss, last season coach Gus Malzahn left for Auburn and this season is no different with Bryan Harsin departing for his alma mater Boise State. Adam Kennedy is the man under center who put up decent numbers by passing for 2,349 yards through the air with 11 touchdowns and only six interceptions. He is steady and efficient with his arm. Look for sophomore Michael Gordon to take the rock for the ground game. Gordon is averaging 6.8 yards per rush and will likely catch a couple of passes in this one. Julian Jones is the targeted wide out has has lots of speeds once the reception has been made. The Red Wolves do not make many turnovers on offense and this should be a huge benefit for this bowl game. The Cardinals will rely on the leadership of Keith Winning (awesome last name) to guide them to victory. The senior quarterback holds the record for all-time passing yards for the school. He isn’t a dual threat type and will sit in the pocket to pick apart of the Red Wolves defense. You can pretty much be he’ll put up at least 300 yards passing in this game. The ground game belongs to Jahwan Edwards. He nearly broke 1,000 yards this season and is very workmanlike in his efforts. Junior Willie Snead leads the team in receiving with 97 receptions, 1,429 yards and 14 touchdowns. Snead will be the difference maker on offense. The offense is potent and will look to exploit the Red Wolves whenever possible. The defense is a steady group and will keep them in the mix. If there’s a turnover to be made, this unit will pounce it. They are one of the best in the country in doing so. Prediction: Ball State will take charge and win convincingly.

__label__cc	0.583866	0.416134	Eggware.XYZ Blog For Eggy News RETRO: Super Mario 64 [Spooky Edition] October 31, 2015 Eggware.XYZ Gaming, Retrospectacles Leave a comment Super Mario 64 did more than just bring Mario to the third dimension: it literally defined a new genre and revolutionized video gaming for the rest of eternity. It’s impossible to overstate just how important Super Mario 64 was to the world of video gaming. Almost every single 3D video game produced after Super Mario 64 has drawn from its groundbreaking new mechanics. But it’s not all fancy industry-changing technology in the world of Super Mario 64. This game changed something else about the world of video games… it introduced a world of fear. With the new 3D world came new 3D horrors, and these scarred the minds of a whole generation of gamers. Where would modern horror gaming be without Big Boo’s Haunt, the Mad Piano, and Unagi? Although these kinds of scares may now seem simplistic, the world of horror would not be where it is today if they did not give us a glimpse of the potential that 3D games could provide. After the jump, we’ll see these revolutionary frights first hand, and learn about what it meant to see 3D fear for the first time. Chain Chomp The first entry in our article is not from Big Boo’s Haunt, as a matter of fact, but from the very first level in the game. Bob-omb Battlefield is the site of an eternal war between the war-loving Black Bob-ombs and the peaceful Pink Bob-ombs. There is one especially notable area in this world [that has nothing to do with Bob-ombs, however]: the Chain Chomp. The Chain Chomp lies roughly in the middle of the level, chained to a post in front of a metal cage with a Power Star inside. The Chain Chomp, a giant black orb with large beady eyes and gigantic teeth guards this Power Star by lunging at any Mario who gets too close and barking furiously at them. It’s hard enough to just walk by this Chain Chomp without getting bitten, but the way to get the power star is even worse. You have to ground pound the post the Chain Chomp is tied to, freeing the beast and allowing you access to the Power Star. This is obviously easier said than done, not just because the actual action is hard, but because working up the nerve to get close to the Chain Chomp takes intense focus. This is one incredibly stressful star to get, and it’s only the first level! Big Boo’s Haunt Big Boo’s Haunt, as its name suggests, is the home of the Boos in Super Mario 64, as well as the titular Big Boo. The level is Nintendo’s take on the prototypical haunted mansion, complete with moving furniture and mysterious paintings that follow your movements. The furniture is one of the most distinctive elements of this level. In one room, you find two wooden chairs that will float up into the air and fly towards Mario when he gets close. In another room, books with teeth will float out of their shelves and follow Mario around trying to bite him. Both of these were very scary on their own, but pale in comparison to the greatest fright in this level. In the later areas of the level, there is a small conservatory decorated with only a large piano. Behind it is a red coin, which you need to collect in order to get a Power Star. Imagine your surprise as a child when the piano’s lid springs open, revealing an enormous set of sharp teeth! You’ve encountered the Mad Piano, a snarling and growling haunted piano that is one of the scariest moments in the entire game. The piano will chase Mario around the room, making a horribly loud clanging sound the whole time. You have to confront this piano if you wish to gather all the stars, too – it’s unkillable, so you must run past it and get to the area it is guarding, hoping that it won’t bite you. Deep underneath the mansion is a mysterious “Merry-Go-Round”, a rotating floor that you must fight a series of Boos on. Considering it’s located deep in the mansion’s basement, and that you must swim through a mysterious underground pool of water to get to it, is confusing and frightening enough. What makes it truly scary is the strange carnival music that plays when you are inside, a haunting calliope that turns what is creepy to absolutely eerie. The Mr. I enemy also features in Big Boo’s Haunt, an enormous, floating, disembodied eyeball that tracks Mario’s every movement. They shoot white bubbles at you and can only be defeated by running around them in circles. They’re mostly harmless, but of special notice is a unique boss variant, Big Mr. I. As its name implies… it’s big. Twice as big as Mario, and located in a tiny secret room that can’t be accessed without the Invisibility Cap. Jolly Roger Bay, one of the earliest levels, features the most fearful enemy in the game. This level as a whole gets huge marks in the fear factor for a variety of reasons: first off, it’s a water level. Secondly, this water level is populated with enormous snapping clams that can swallow Mario whole if you swim him too close to one. Third, a large portion of it is claustrophobic caverns filled with stalagmites that can fall and crush Mario. All of these are bad on their own, but are nothing compared to Unagi the Eel. Unagi the Eel is an eel. He lives in the bottommost reaches of Jolly Roger Bay, poking his head out of small crevices. He is also gigantic. Easily several times Mario’s size, Unagi is without a doubt the most terrifying enemy in the entire game. Immense and unkillable, you must trick Unagi out of his hole without being swallowed alive as he guards a Power Star in the crevice. Once you do get him out of his hole, you get a chance to see his full length as he swims around the bottom of the bay looking for you to chomp. Then you must grab the Power Star itself, which is attached to the end of his tail! You must chase him, and actually come into contact with him hoping the clumsy underwater controls won’t cause you to drown first. Speaking of giant fish, later in Tiny-Huge Island we encounter Bubba. Bubba is an orange Cheep Cheep that is, ostensibly, normal size. But due to the gimmick of Tiny-Huge Island, Mario gets shrunk down to a fraction of his normal height. What does this add up to? An enormous fish trying to eat you! Bubba only shows up when you’re shrunk down to tiny size and is easily avoidable thanks to the Koopa shell located nearby, but if you are in the water, good luck on getting away from him. Super Mario 64 is one of the most important video games ever made, but even historically essential video games can have their share of frights. This article only just touched on some of the scariest moments in the game – there’s still stuff like Bowser’s levels, the oddness in Wet-Dry World, and mishaps involving penguin babies, but if we were to list every potentially scary moment we’d list the whole game. Super Mario 64 is often duplicated, but never imitated, and even now is a must play for any lover of the video game artform. Have you played Super Mario 64? What scared you the most about it?

__label__cc	0.741751	0.258249	How to Grieve the Death of Someone You Don’t Know Grief is healthy. The death of a loved one is an inevitable, certain, unavoidable, and inexorable part of life. Surviving family and friends experience an emotional cascade of grief, regardless of how their loved one passed. Bereavement has no formula, no time limit, or right or wrong. Grieving is an important part of the process of healing. Each of us grieves in our own time and way. Neither wisdom nor understanding makes it easier, because those are rational thoughts. Grief is not rational or linear. In grief, the rationale is useless. Emotions are dictated by the limbic system in your brain, which is the seat of your emotions. Many times, the world will grieve and mourn the deaths of celebrities and important figures as if they’d lost a loved one because, in fact, they have. The intensity and time of grief differs when it’s someone immediately important to you, but those unknown in your personal lives can have the same grief patterns and stages as the loss of your loved ones. We establish strong emotional ties to celebrities in the public eye. Many of our dearly departed who aren’t family members or close friends have been in your life as if they were family members or dear friends for most of your life. Feeling Stuck in the Stages Of Grief? Here Are 10 Coping Mechanisms to Help You Move On You’ve established strong ties and relationships through television, the medium of technology, movies, concerts, and events throughout your lifetime. People tend to deify, idealize, and mythologize these legends and connect deeply. This is part of the human experience. Your bereavement is part of the collective unconscious. We share grief and loss collectively, just as we share joy and excitement. Likewise, when one finds solace, acceptance, and relief, the chances increase that others will also find comfort. This, too, is a function of the collective unconscious. In Jungian psychology, the collective unconscious is a concept originally defined by psychoanalyst Carl Jung. It refers to the idea that a segment of the deepest unconscious mind is genetically inherited and is not shaped by personal experience. It’s a part of the human condition. Grieving and “The Hundredth Monkey Effect” An example is “The Hundredth Monkey Effect,” which hypothesizes that “…a new behavior or idea is said to spread rapidly by unexplained means from one group to all related groups once a critical number of members of one group exhibit the new behavior or acknowledge the new idea.” So, how does this theory relate to grief and loss? If others feel the pain and loss of a hero, heroine, icon, or celebrated personality, it’s a human experience shared by many. Human beings connect with the pain and sorrow of others, as well as the joy. This is empathy, something common to most of us. I say most, because there are certain personality disorders where empathy does not exist. There is a symbiotic relationship with all of us worldwide when we feel loss, pride, and joy. We feel as one. When President Reagan told Gorbachev to tear down the Berlin wall, the free world celebrated as if it was on their own turf. Human beings are wired for connection, especially in grieving. According to the philosopher Martin Buber, human beings are wired for connection. When we go into a disconnect through unexpected or sudden loss, we go into crisis. It’s difficult enough even when there’s an expectation of loss, like an elderly person or someone who’s sick, but when it’s sudden, like a car crash or suicide, humans go first into shock and denial. It forces you to experience the loss of a secure attachment; someone you’d grown attached to and loved deeply, even those not known to you on a personal basis, like a celebrity. Mourning a celebrity is natural. Losing an icon, even if you’ve never been in their company, feels the same as losing a best friend or even a hero. So, mourning is a natural event. People like Princess Diana, President John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., and Elvis Presley were all a manifestation of people’s own wishes, hopes, and dreams. They inspired us with passion and purpose in our own lives by exemplifying what really matters. To be the best that we can be and become what we are intended to be. Experiencing the Five Stages of Grief The five stages of grief — denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance — are a part of everyone’s mourning. Each person experiences these stages personally in their own way and time. For instance, there are folks who still deny the death of Elvis Presley, longing to keep him alive in their hearts and minds. Coming to terms with losing a loved one, either in family, friends, or whom you have grown to love and respect is the stage of grief called acceptance. Dealing With Grief After the Loss of a Pet Everyone shares in the sorrow and loss. The common denominator is our human essence, our authenticity. When a noted figure in your life dies, it forces you to come to terms with how fragile life is. To be alive and well in one moment and to be gone in another is a fear and reality we all share. Mourning the loss of people you celebrated for different reasons is part of the human condition. To be loved and to love is what it is to be a human being. Grieving is healing. The most important part of grieving is feeling your feelings. Grieving is a healing feeling. Talk with others who celebrated the life of the deceased. Share your heartfelt feelings with those you trust and understand your grief. Know that what you are experiencing is common and needs to be felt. Most of all, remember to celebrate their lives, as well as mourn their deaths. This guest article was first published on YourTango.com: How To Mourn The Loss Of Someone You Don’t Know.

__label__cc	0.642969	0.357031	Fee Analyzer ETFs We Use RRSPs ModernAdvisor Blog Guiding you along your financial journey Socially Responsible ETFs By Isaac Schweigert \| July 13, 2017 ModernAdvisor was the first online investment advisor (aka robo-advisor) in Canada to offer a socially responsible investment option back in February 2016. At that time SRI options in the ETF space were much more limited than we would have liked, as a result our SRI portfolios did not have any non-North American developed market or emerging market exposure. We’ve since update our SRI option to include more international exposure. In Canada, we’ve only 1 ETF that focuses on socially responsible investing, so if you want a globally diversified portfolio that is socially responsible, you need to look to the US or Europe. Canadian online brokers offer trading in US securities, but few offer cost effective overseas trading so we will focus on ETFs that most people will have access to. Due to foreign withholding taxes, the best account to hold a US ETF in is an RRSP, RRIF, or similar registered account (but not TFSA). When held in one of those types of accounts the US withholding tax does not apply. If you hold them in an unregistered account you will be charged the withholding tax, but you can claim this as a tax credit on your tax return. Unfortunately, if you hold them in a TFSA you will be charged the withholding tax, and you can’t get it back. There are many different socially responsible ETFs available, ETF.com has a complete list of socially responsible ETFs that trade in the US. We will cover broadly diversified socially responsible ETFs and then highlight a few more focused options that are available. Broadly Diversified SRI ETFs iShares Jantzi Social Index ETF (XEN) Canadian investors only have one choice when looking for an SRI ETF that focuses on Canadian stocks, the iShares Jantzi Social Index ETF (XEN). XEN tracks the Jantzi Social Index, an index created by Jantzi Research, now Sustainalytics. The Jantzi Social Index is an index of 50 companies from the S&P/TSX Composite that have been screened for environmental, social, and corporate governance criteria. The Index screens out: Companies that produce military weapons Companies that produce nuclear power Companies that produce tobacco products or companies that earn more that 10% of their revenues from selling tobacco products. The Index is reviewed annually to ensure that the companies included continue to meet the ESG and exclusion criteria. The Index aims to keep the sector weights within +/-5% of the sector weights in the S&P/TSX 60 Index. The weight of each company in the Index is capped at 10%. The annual cost of this ETF is 0.55%, about 10 times higher than a non-ESG ETF like XIC, but still much less expensive than a typical Canadian mutual fund. We use this ETF in our SRI portfolios. iShares MSCI USA ESG Select ETF (KLD) Investors looking for a broad ETF tracking US stocks with an ESG focus have several to choose from. One of the largest SRI ETFs is the iShares MSCI USA ESG Select ETF which tracks the MSCI USA ESG Select Index. That Index starts with the MSCI USA Index and excludes companies that: Produce tobacco, or that earn 15% or more of their revenue from distributing or selling tobacco products Companies that earn 50% or more of their revenue from producing alcohol, or more than $1 billion in revenue from alcohol-related products Companies that earn 50% or more of their revenue, or more than $1 billion in revenue, from gambling-related products Companies involved in nuclear fuel enrichment, uranium mining, or nuclear reactor design or construction for nuclear power generation Companies with 6000 MW or more of installed capacity attributed to nuclear sources or with 50% or more of installed capacity attributed to nuclear sources Companies that manufacture conventional weapons and weapons systems and earn 50% or more in revenue, or $3 billion or more in revenue from these activities All companies that manufacture cluster munitions, landmines, depleted uranium weapons, and nuclear weapons All companies involved in manufacturing of bio-chemical weapon components or bio-chemical weapon systems Companies classified as a Producer that earn either 50% or more revenue or more than $100 million in revenue from civilian firearms The remaining companies are then whittled down to a maximum of 350, with a maximum of 5% in any single company. The sector weights are not permitted to deviate from the sector weigths in the MSCI USA Index by more than +/-3%. The annual cost of KLD is 0.50%, quite a bit higher than the S&P 500 ETF (SPY), but again, a good deal compared to most mutual funds in Canada. iShares MSCI KLD 400 Social ETF (DSI) The iShares MSCI KLD 400 Social ETF is essentially a more restrictive version of KLD above. The alcohol, gambling, and military weapons screens are reduced to 5% of revenue or $500 million. The civilian weapons screen is reduced to 5% of revenue or $20 million in revenue. In addition to tightening those screens, DSI adds the following screens: All companies classified as a Producer that earn more than 5% in revenue, or more than $500 million in revenue, from adult entertainment materials All companies that derive any revenue from activities that genetically modify plants, such as seeds and crops, and other organisms intended for agricultural use or human consumption The sector weights are maintained within a relative +/-25% of the main indexes sector weights. The Index is reviewed on a quarterly basis and the number of companies in the Index are limited to 400. The annual cost of DSI is 0.50%. We use this ETF in our SRI portfolios. iShares MSCI EAFE ESG Optimized ETF (ESGD) Investors looking for a broad ETF tracking EAFE (Europe, Australasia and Far East) stocks with an ESG focus really only have one choice: iShares MSCI EAFE ESG Optimized ETF. ESGD aims to track the MSCI EAFE ESG Focus Index, which starts with the MSCI EAFE index and applies ESG screens to exclude: Companies that produce tobacco or companies earning more than 15% of their revenue from distributing tobacco products Companies that produce military weapons including cluster bombs, landmines, depleted uranium weapons, chemical and biological weapons Companies that own 20% or more of a weapons manufacturer Those screens are a little more basic than many investors would like, but it’s a start. Up until June 2016 no ETFs were available in North America that invested in EAFE stocks with an ESG focus. Hopefully as more investors choose SRI, new products will become available that go further. The annual cost of ESGD is 0.40%. We use this ETF in our SRI portfolios. iShares MSCI EM ESG Optimized ETF (ESGE) Investors looking for a broad ETF tracking emerging market stocks with an ESG focus really only have one choice: iShares MSCI EM ESG Optimized ETF. ESGE aims to track the MSCI EM ESG Focus Index, which starts with the MSCI Emerging Markets index and applies ESG screens and excludes: Those screens are a little more basic than many investors would like, but it’s a start. Up until June 2016 no ETFs were available in North America that invested in emerging market stocks with an ESG focus. The annual cost of ESGE is 0.45%. We use this ETF in our SRI portfolios. Narrowly Focused Socially Responsible ETFs There are many ETFs available that go beyond just tracking a major index that has been screened for environmental, social, and corporate governance issues. There are ESG ETFs that aim to invest in companies that have low carbon footprints, invest only in clean tech or alternative energy. There are also ESG ETFs available now that tackle social issues like workplace equality, disabilities, and follow religious doctrines. iShares MSCI ACWI Low Carbon Target ETF (CRBN) The iShares MSCI ACWI Low Carbon Target ETF starts with the MSCI ACWI Index, an index of developed and emerging market stocks, and applies a carbon screen. Companies with lower carbon exposure receive a larger weight than those that have a higher carbon exposure. Country and sector weights in the ACWI Low Carbon Target will not deviate more than +/-2% from the main ACWI Index, with the exception of the energy sector where no sector constraint is applied. It is important to note that low carbon does not necessarily mean fossil fuel free. There are still energy and mining companies in the Index. The annual cost of CRBN is a pretty reasonable 0.20%, lower than some bond ETFs. SPDR S&P 500 Fossil Fuel Free ETF (SPYX) The SPDR S&P 500 Fossil Fuel Free ETF aims to track the S&P 500 Fossil Fuel Free Index, a version of the S&P 500 that attempts to exclude companies with ownership of fossil fuel reserves, including those for third-party and in house power generation. Fossil fuel in this case is defined as crude oil, natural gas, and thermal coal but does not include coal used in steel making. This means that energy and utilities companies are pretty much absent from the holdings of the ETF. The annual cost of SPYX is a pretty reasonable 0.20%. PowerShares Cleantech Portfolio (PZD) The PowerShares Cleantech Portfolio aims to track the Cleantech Index, an index of companies with a presence in the cleantech sector primarily from the US and Europe. Companies included in that Index must have at least 50% of their sales or operating profits from cleantech businesses, where ‘cleantech’ is defined as knowledge-based products and services that add economic value by reducing cost, raising productivity and/or product performance while reducing resource consumption and their negative impact on the environment and public health. The annual cost of PZD is higher than for most ETFs at 0.67%. VanEck Vectors Global Alternative Energy ETF (GEX) The VanEck Vectors Global Alternative Energy ETF seeks to track the Ardour Global Index (Extra Liquid), an index of alternative energy companies including those in bio-fuels (such as ethanol), biomass, wind, solar, hydro and geothermal sources, and technologies that support production, use, and storage of these energy sources. Companies included in the Index must derive at least 50% of their revenue from the alternative energy sector. The number of companies in the Index is fixed at 30, which are market capitalization (size) weighted. The annual cost of GEX is 0.62%. Workplace Equality Portfolio ETF (EQLT) The Workplace Equality Portfolio ETF is designed to track the performance of the Workplace Equality Index, a stock index that includes many US and foreign companies traded on a US stock exchange that support lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) equality in the workplace. The screening criteria generally include mandatory language in a company’s equal employment opportunity (EEO) statement prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, offering health benefits to same-sex partners or spouses of employees, along with other corporate benefits and privileges. The approximately 250 stocks in the index are equally weighted and reselected annually. The annual cost of EQLT is 0.75%. That is just a small sample of the ESG ETFs available today, there are many more ESG ETFs available to choose from, and hopefully many more to come in the future. When selecting an ESG ETF for your portfolio it is important to consider what is most important to you. That could be supporting a certain issue like equality, or minimizing fossil fuel exposure, or simply getting the best geographic exposure at low cost while having at least some ESG awareness. There may be no ETF that meets all of your criteria, but there should be ETFs that meet at least some of them.

__label__wiki	0.568582	0.568582	Buddhism Guide The site for buddhistic culture, history, schools, temples, karma, meditation and many more topics for your religious studies. Home > Buddhism Prayer Flag Tibetan prayer flags are colourful cotton cloth squares in white, blue, yellow, green, and red. Woodblocks are sometimes still used to decorate the prayer flags with images, mantras, and prayers. Usually at the centre of a prayer flag, there is an image of the Wind Horse which bears the Three Jewels of Buddhism. On the four corners of the flag could be images of Garuda, Dragon, Tiger, and Snow Lion which are the four sacred animals representing the four virtues of wisdom, power, confidence, and fearless joy. Prayer flags are attached to cords and hung up so they may flutter in the wind. The movement is believed to «activate the power of the mantras and bestow protection and merit.» The flags are commonly known in Tibet as «Dar Cho»: Dar meaning to increase in life, fortune, health and wealth, and Cho meaning all sentient beings. Prayers include ‘Om Tara tu Tara ture soha’ which is a request for speedy compassion from Tara and ‘Om ha hung vajra guru padme sidi hung’ a strengthening prayer. There are two kinds of prayer flags, the horizontal ones called Lungta in Tibetan and the vertical ones called Darchor. Horizontal prayer flags are squares connected at the top edges with a long thread. The less used vertical prayer flags are usually single squares or groups of squares sewn on poles which are planted in the ground or on rooftops. Tibetans believe the prayers and mantras will be blown upward as offerings to their deities and will bring benefits to the one who hangs them, his neighbourhood, and all people throughout the world. However, if the flags are hung on the wrong astrological dates, they will bring only negative results. The longer it hangs, the greater the obstacles. The best time to put up new prayer flags are in the mornings on sunny, windy days. Sets of five coloured flags should be put in the order: yellow, green, red, white, blue from left to right. The colours represent the five Buddha families and the five elements. Blue represents Akshobhya Buddha and space, white represents Ratna Sambhava Buddha and water, red represents Amitabha Buddha and fire, green represents Amoghasiddhi Buddha, air and wind, and yellow represents Vairocana Buddha and earth. Prayer flags can be traced back to the ancient «Bön» religion of Tibet where shamanistic Bonpo priests used primary colored plain flags in healing ceremonies. According to Eastern medicine, health and harmony are produced through the balance of the five elements. Old prayer flags are replaced with new ones annually on the Tibetan New Year. Because the symbols and mantras on prayer flags are sacred, they should be treated with respect. They should not be placed on the ground or used in clothing. Old prayer flags should be burned. When the Chinese took over Tibet they destroyed almost everything having to do with Tibetan culture and religion. Prayer flags were discouraged but not entirely eliminated. Many traditional designs have been lost forever since the turmoil of China’s cultural revolution. Most of the traditional prayer flags today are made in Nepal and India by Tibetan refugees or by Nepali Buddhists.

The name "Eyewitness News" had been used at KYW-TV since April, 1959..They were the first station in the Country to use that title for a Newscast.. Dick's Triumphant return to Cleveland-March 28, 1966 as the main weather forecaster at CBS affiliate WJW-TV 8 after several months at KYW-TV 3 in Philadelphia.. Cleveland Weather forecasting has had as interesting a history as the Cleveland Weather itself..As in most TV markets, Cleveland has had an assortment of personalities doing weather foreccasts dating from the early 1950's. Most early weather forecasters, were doing weather as a sideline to other duties on TV and radio. Joe Finan, "The Atlantic Weatherman" was doing his thing on WNBK while doing radio on WTAM in the early 1950's..as was Captain Glenn Rowell, also on WNBK even earlier than Finan..WEWS-TV had "Weathergirls" such as "Sunny" Day, Susan Sadler and Miss Barbara Plummer, who was also doing "Romper Room". TV 5 also had Ron Penfound "Captain Penny" as weekend and sometime weeknight weatherman in the 1960s. The main Weatherman at WJW through the 1950's was Announcer Howard Hoffman, although Jim Doney and Doug Adair had done weather forecasts as well..Hoffman remained at TV 8 from 1949 into the 1980's. May 1, 1961 would bring a number of firsts to KYW-TV 3.Possibly the first half hour local newscast in the USA..As well as possibly the first AMS Seal (No. 45) weatherman in Cleveland TV History,,Dick Goddard.. Dick was born February 24, 1931 in Akron, Ohio. After serving in weather related duties in the US Air Force in the early 1950's, Goddard graduated in 1960 from Kent State, majoring in Drama and Broadcasting.. Dick is also an avid cartoonist. He turned down an invitation to interview at Disney Studios in California, opting to stay in Cleveland and try his hand at TV on KYW-TV 3 with Eyewitness News starting Monday, May 1, 1961. Station staffers told him later that they had a pool going to see how long he would last.. Dick tells the story of his first day on the air, when he decided to tell a weather interest story about a Croaking Frog..Only he was so nervous, it came out "Froaking Crog" After Dick got settled in, he became the most popular weatherman in Cleveland up to that time. The Other TV 3 newscasts in May 1961 included Bill Jorgensen at 6:30 and 11PM, Big Wilson doing Weather at 6:40 and Jim Gerard on Weather at 11:10..Jim Graner with Sports at 11:15.. Becasue of the forced return of Westinghouse's KYW to Philadelphia and NBC's WRCV (WKYC) to Cleveland, Dick Goddard went with Westinghouse to Philadelphia in June, 1965. He and his wife never felt comfortable in Philly. Thoiugh he says they were treated well, it was never "home" to them.. His replacement in Cleveland, Wally Kinnan, had been very popular in Philadelphia.. In early 1966, Goddard entertained offers from all 3 Cleveland Stations, electing to go to WJW-TV 8 because he was a big fan of the Browns and TV 8 sportscaster Ken Coleman, only Coleman left Cleveland a month later..He returned to Cleveland at Channel 8 March 28, 1966 as part of the City Camera News Team at 6 and 11PM with Doug Adair, Joel Daly and Coleman, later replaced by Frank Gleiber . Previous evening forecaster Bob "Hoolihan the Weatherman" Wells was moved to Noon and Weekend Weather before gaining even greater fame on the Hoolihan and Big Chuck Show, replacing Ghoulardi Friday nights in December 1966. Goddard became the most popular weatherman in Cleveland TV History over more than 42 years at Channel 8..Emceeing live shows all over town, Hosting the Woolybear festival for 35 years..The largest one day festival in Ohio. He also has served as Cleveland Browns Statistician for many years, as well as doing numerous skits for Big Chuck and Lil John.. If any weather forecaster could be called "beloved" it would be Dick Goddard, at least in Cleveland and Northeast Ohio.. From Fox 8's Wilma Smith and Gary Stromberg (Feb. 2008) Newly discovered footage of Dick's very early days at Channel 8..Late 60's/very early 70's..The actual footage has no audio..It had disintegrated from age..

Recent testing shows their system has unprecedented speed and accuracy. We could soon see a huge leap in technology on the market. MIT researchers developed a system called MCUNet with which they hope to bring deep learning neural networks to computer chips in wearable medical devices, household appliances and the countless other objects tagged “internet of things” (IoT). The system designs compact neural networks that deliver unprecedented speed and accuracy for deep learning on IoT devices, despite limited memory and processing power, according to the press release. The technology could facilitate the expansion of the IoT universe while saving energy and improving data security. The research will be presented at next month’s Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems. The lead author is Ji Lin, a Ph.D. student in Song Han’s lab in MIT’s Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. Co-authors include Han and Yujun Lin of MIT, Wei-Ming Chen of MIT and National University Taiwan, and John Cohn and Chuang Gan of the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab. PAPER: “MCUNet: Tiny Deep Learning on IoT Devices” READ >> CES 2020: Robot Vacuums That Don’t Repeat Mistakes, and Other Little Fixes to Life’s Annoyances The following was written by Daniel Ackerman for the MIT news office who shared the document with various media outlets for immediate release. Designing a deep network for microcontrollers isn’t easy. Existing neural architecture search techniques start with a big pool of possible network structures based on a predefined template, then they gradually find the one with high accuracy and low cost. “It can work pretty well for GPUs or smartphones,” says Lin. “But it’s been difficult to directly apply these techniques to tiny microcontrollers because they are too small.” So Lin developed TinyNAS, a neural architecture search method that creates custom-sized networks. “We have a lot of microcontrollers that come with different power capacities and different memory sizes,” says Lin. “So we developed the algorithm [TinyNAS] to optimize the search space for different microcontrollers.” The customized nature of TinyNAS means it can generate compact neural networks with the best possible performance for a given microcontroller—with no unnecessary parameters. “Then we deliver the final, efficient model to the microcontroller,” says Lin. To run that tiny neural network, a microcontroller also needs a lean inference engine. A typical inference engine carries some dead weight—instructions for tasks it may rarely run. The extra code poses no problem for a laptop or smartphone, but it could easily overwhelm a microcontroller. READ >> At CES 2019, Chefling expands partnership with GE Appliances with UltraConnect “It doesn’t have off-chip memory, and it doesn’t have a disk,” says Han. “Everything put together is just one megabyte of flash, so we have to really carefully manage such a small resource.” Cue TinyEngine. The researchers developed their inference engine in conjunction with TinyNAS. TinyEngine generates the essential code necessary to run TinyNAS’ customized neural network. Any deadweight code is discarded, which cuts down on compile-time. “We keep only what we need,” says Han. “And since we designed the neural network, we know exactly what we need. That’s the advantage of system-algorithm codesign.” In the group’s tests of TinyEngine, the size of the compiled binary code was between 1.9 and five times smaller than comparable microcontroller inference engines from Google and ARM. TinyEngine also contains innovations that reduce runtime, including in-place depthwise convolution, which cuts peak memory usage nearly in half. After codesigning TinyNAS and TinyEngine, Han’s team put MCUNet to the test. MCUNet’s first challenge was image classification. The researchers used the ImageNet database to train the system with labeled images, then to test its ability to classify novel ones. On a commercial microcontroller they tested, MCUNet successfully classified 70.7 percent of the novel images—the previous state-of-the-art neural network and inference engine combo was just 54 percent accurate. “Even a 1 percent improvement is considered significant,” says Lin. “So this is a giant leap for microcontroller settings.” The team found similar results in ImageNet tests of three other microcontrollers. And on both speed and accuracy, MCUNet beat the competition for audio and visual “wake-word” tasks, where a user initiates an interaction with a computer using vocal cues (think: “Hey, Siri”) or simply by entering a room. The experiments highlight MCUNet’s adaptability to numerous applications. “Huge potential” The promising test results give Han hope that it will become the new industry standard for microcontrollers. “It has huge potential,” he says. The advance “extends the frontier of deep neural network design even farther into the computational domain of small energy-efficient microcontrollers,” says Kurt Keutzer, a computer scientist at the University of California at Berkeley, who was not involved in the work. He adds that MCUNet could “bring intelligent computer-vision capabilities to even the simplest kitchen appliances or enable more intelligent motion sensors.” MCUNet could also make IoT devices more secure. “A key advantage is preserving privacy,” says Han. “You don’t need to transmit the data to the cloud.” Analyzing data locally reduces the risk of personal information being stolen — including personal health data. Han envisions smartwatches with MCUNet that don’t just sense users’ heartbeat, blood pressure, and oxygen levels, but also analyze and help them understand that information. MCUNet could also bring deep learning to IoT devices in vehicles and rural areas with limited internet access. Plus, MCUNet’s slim computing footprint translates into a slim carbon footprint. “Our big dream is for green AI,” says Han, adding that training a large neural network can burn carbon equivalent to the lifetime emissions of five cars. MCUNet on a microcontroller would require a small fraction of that energy. “Our end goal is to enable efficient, tiny AI with less computational resources, less human resources, and less data,” says Han.

__label__cc	0.70871	0.29129	Buffalo TS4400D External design Setting-up, firmware update, and supplementary utilities Our test lab already hosted two models of Buffalo NASes for review: TeraStation 5600 and LinkStation 421. Today we welcome our readers to get familiar with the review and testing of their middle brother—Buffalo TeraStation 4400D NAS—which allows for the installation of HDDs of most vendors. Okay, let's get started. Traditionally for this class of devices, Buffalo TeraStation TS4400D comes in a black metal case intended for desktop mounting with dimensions of 170x215x231 mm. The larger part of the device front panel is a plastic door with the air filter which has four disc bays behind it. The door can be locked and there is a lock incorporated into it. Apart from the disc boxes there is also some kind of a port behind the door. It looks like it was made to be used only by the vendor's engineers and not for connection of user devices. It's worth noticing that TS4400D has something absolutely different from models by this vendor we tested earlier; now the users are allowed using HDDs of most vendors. Just over the door on the front panel there is a control board with an LCD display and control button, ON/OFF button, LEDs that indicate the NAS and network port status, and USB 3.0 port. Also, there is FUNCTION button over here that is used to copy data, switch off USB carriers, recreate RAID arrays, and manage fault-tolerant settings. The upper and side panels of the NAS are not remarkable at all. There are only small ventilation grates located on them. The bottom of TeraStation 4400D has four rubber legs used for desktop mounting of the device. On the rear side of the NAS there is a 92 mm fan. Apart from it there are also a power socket and stickers with brief information about the device located here. Also, the rear side of the device case has a switch for boot device selection, two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, two USB 3.0 ports, and two USB 2.0 ports. Now let's have a look at the insides of Buffalo TeraStation 4400D. Hardware platform of Buffalo TeraStation 4400D consists of four cards: a motherboard, PSU card, and two other cards that perform support functions. These functions include data I/O to the LCD screen located on the device front panel or maintaining and securing connection of the hard drives to the motherboard. On the motherboard there is a slot with the pre-installed RAM stick. The device RAM is powered by eight Samsung K4b2G0846D chips with the capacity of 256 Mbytes each. This way just one stick provides TeraStation 5600 with 2 Gbytes of RAM. The main elements are located on one side of the motherboard. There is only one exception and it's RS-232 Texas Instruments MB3243I controller. A great part of the motherboard front is covered by a large black radiator that provides Intel Atom D2550 CPU and southbridge cooling. iTE IT8721F microchip is charged with slow I/O functions. Support of USB 3.0 ports is maintained by Renesas D720201 chip. Two Intel WG82574L controllers are responsible for operation of two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. We couldn't manage to find a single-purpose RAID controller on the card, and it means that all RAID support functions are performed by the device southbridge. We also discovered Silego SLG8LV631V clock device located on it. That is where we bring the review of the hardware platform of Buffalo TeraStation 4400D to a conclusion and pass on to examining capabilities of its software component. In order to start working one needs to have firmware installed in Buffalo TeraStation 4400D NAS. The installation procedure has been explained in great detail in the product manual and we think it's only necessary to tell that the firmware is installed using a flash card that's included in the box. In other words, at first the firmware is downloaded from the USB data carrier to be copied to the preinstalled disks which need to be empty, i.e. without any created partitions. Once TS4400D has been rebooted, one needs to detect it within the network using NASNavigator2 utility, get connected to it, create the administrator password, format the installed disks (Disks-Disks), and create a RAID (Disks-RAID). And though the firmware update is not necessary to be carried out to get started using the device under review, we recommend users to download and install the latest firmware version. Firmware update is performed either using TSUpdater utility or Management-Update menu item (in case if the connection to the Internet is available). As soon as all procedures specified above have been executed, the NAS will be ready to use. The whole update procedure takes about 30 minutes (not considering the RAID creation time). If it's necessary to get connected to the NAS using iSCSI protocol, the administrator should use Buffalo iSCSI tool utility. Apart from three utilities mentioned above there is also a wide selection of other utilities meant to be used for management of the NAS which acts as a surveillance system. Since the web-interface capabilities of TS4400D are equal to those of TS5600, we will not review them but pass straight on to testing the NAS. Nevertheless, there is probably just one thing we would like to channel attention of our readers to: the settings page of TrendMicro antivirus module is in English in TS4400D, which allows one adjusting all necessary settings. By the way, eventually we didn't manage to change the web-interface language to Russian. It's been in English instead. The first testing procedure we traditionally begin our testing section with is estimating the booting time of the device, which is a time interval starting with the moment when the power is on until the first echo reply is received through ICMP. Buffalo TeraStation TS4400D NAS boots in 96 seconds. We believe that this result is decent. The second test was a security scanning procedure, which has been carried out using Positive Technologies XSpider 7.7 (Demo build 3100) utility. On the whole, there were 13 open ports discovered. The most interesting data of those we obtained are presented below. Before getting down to performance tests we would like to mention key specifications of the test stand we used. Motherboard ASUS Maximus V Extreme NIC Intel Gigabit CT Desktop Adapter Intel Gigabit 82579V OS Windows 7 x64 SP1 Rus At first we decided to test access speeds to the data stored on various RAIDs using Samba and iSCSI protocols. Buffalo TS4400D allows for the installation of various HDDs. We just could not help but try this capability out and therefore all tests were carried out using our standard Seagate Constellation ES ST2000NM0011 disks. After that we decided to check how support of Jumbo frames affects the NAS performance. We were a bit surprised about the results: the performance was enhanced upon connection via iSCSI, but it was completely different when Samba was used. Neither have we overlooked a capability of connection to the external data carrier storage system via USB. We successively formatted a 750 Gbyte Transcend StoreJet 25M3 hard disk into three file systems: NTFS, FAT32, and EXT3. Also we decided to test throughputs to the data stored on the NTFS partition of our external data carrier upon connection to USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports. That's where we draw the testing chapter of Buffalo TeraStation 4400D to a close and move on to summing it all up. Generally, we are quite glad about Buffalo TeraStation 4400D we tested. This device does not have the shortcoming we saw in the other model, TS5600, and the user is free to choose the disk models that s/he wants to have installed in the NAS. Also, we believe that fitting the device with two network interfaces is a good idea. The strength areas of TS4400D are presented below. High data access speeds Ability of hot backing-up of the entire device Availability of an anti-virus module (evaluation copy) Support of Windows domains Functionally capable of acting as a surveillance system Ability of querying both the local and remote UPSes Support network interface binding Availability of context-sensitive help on each page of the web-interface Ability to operate in peer networks Unfortunately, we cannot help to mention some of its drawbacks. No IPv6 support Incorrect time zones for the CIS countries The Russian version of the web-interface is not displayed properly A long firmware upgrade procedure As of when this article was being written, the average price for Buffalo TeraStation 4400D (without disks) in Moscow online shops was 24,090 roubles.	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2413

A park-rangers hut tucked away in St James Churchyard in Clerkenwell Close has been transformed to Greyhound on the Green, run by Rebecca Serra and her boyfriend Ross Willoughby-Young, along with their retired greyhound, Sullivan. “It’s a beautiful place,” says Rebecca. “People come here and say ‘it feels like you guys are in a Richard Curtis film and it does. It’s a place to meet your neighbours in a city where people are adamant you don’t – which I think is waffle.” Ross adds: “You can learn so much about people’s lives. London can be transactional and quick. But here it is good to be somewhere slow.” The café has raised more than £80 for charity DOTS – a free, roving vet service for homeless dogs on the streets. “I have always been a greyhound lady,” says Rebecca. “I came up with the idea of having a greyhound café 10 years ago. When this place came up I thought it was perfect. I always wanted a job where I get to hang out with my dog as much as possible.” The café uses ethically sourced products from Holborn’s Redemption Roasters and Bread By Bike in Kentish Town. Plans are in the pipeline to start a book club in June. Greyhound on the Green is in St James Churchyard, Clerkenwell Close, EC1R 0EA. It’s open Monday to Friday from 8am-4pm and Sunday 10am-3pm. Closed Saturday. www.greyhoundonthegreen.com Football team make pitch for sponsors Todo Ciudad FC’s newly formed Women’s Team is growing in numbers and looking for sponsorship A football team in Market Road are calling on potential sponsors to get in touch. Todo Ciudad FC, who have raised over £6,000 for charities including the Teenage Cancer Trust and Shelter from the Storm, are determined to continue making links in the community and are looking for support with new football kits for their men’s and women’s teams. Josh Pugh, partnerships and sponsorship coordinator, says: “Since moving to Islington it has been easy to establish ourselves in the community a bit more. We have started getting the ball rolling with establishing a youth team and are going to approach Islington schools. We want to be the example of what a grassroot football club looks like. We are embedded in the community, raising money for charity and are ready to take the next step.” Todo Ciudad FC have launched a women’s team this year who are also looking for sponsorship. Ruth Collett, chair of Todo Ciudad Women’s FC, says: “When we came up the idea of having a women’s team we weren’t expecting much but over 30 women turned up to the first session and it has been growing ever since.” For more information email Josh Pugh at joshsdpugh@gmail.com or go to www.facebook.com/todociudadfc/ Charity loses her fear and wins big! 29 November — By Calum Fraser and Nick Ferris Festive fundraiser at Ambler School 03 January — By Helen Chapman Happily married to her job! 10 January — By Charles Woodham Club gets it right for the homeless	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2441
__label__cc	0.597497	0.402503	- Dances With Bears - http://johnhelmer.org - RUSAL WARMS THE BENCH AS ALUMINIUM PRICES DROP Posted By Editor On February 18, 2016 @ 12:56 am In Aluminium \| No Comments By John Helmer, Moscow As the Kremlin’s apparatchik for the state aluminium monopoly, Oleg Deripaska (lead image), chief executive of United Company Rusal, has a personal price problem which threatens to turn into an income problem for Russians. If it does that, and loss of income turns into negative opinion polls and protest votes, Deripaska has a political problem with President Vladimir Putin. Rusal announced last week that because the price of aluminium in global trade is falling, driven downwards by recession in demand and increasing Chinese production for export, there is likely to be a new cut in Russian smelter output. The company says [1] it “is considering further aluminium production cuts totaling approximately 200 thousand tonnes per annum.” This Rusal cut comes on top of 316,000 tonnes cut in 2013 [2]; another 256,000 tonnes cut in 2014 [3]; and 38,000 tonnes cut in the December quarter of last year [1]. According to the new Rusal production report for the fourth quarter and the full year, the curtailment of aluminium supplies is “supporting the LME aluminium price and premiums are expected to stabilize at current levels in 1Q16. The upside of the aluminium ‘all-in’ [London Metal Exchange price plus premium] price on the short-term horizon will be dependent on FX rates, underlying energy prices and the positioning of commodity funds based on their views of the Chinese economy… Overall we expect 1.2 mn tonnes of global aluminum market deficit in 2016 compared to 0.6 mn tonnes of surplus in 2015.” This year’s cut – 6% of last year’s total output — will cause Russian job and income losses. Or else Deripaska must absorb the losses on his profit line because the political survival of the government is at stake. When the price of aluminium was rising, Rusal’s profits went to pay its foreign and Russian bank (state bank) debts. These were run up by Deripaska when he had the ambition to be tsar of all Russian metals, including aluminium, copper, nickel, platinum group metals, molybdenum, and coal. Deripaska, plus what the US Treasury calls his “cronies” on the Rusal board, have hung on to their seats, jobs, and compensation despite the collapse of the aluminium price, and despite Rusal’s costly efforts in the UK courts to preserve the old system of delayed metal delivery and warehouse storage premiums. The story of the speculation on the aluminium premium can be read in detail here [4]. RUSAL PRODUCTION AND SALES REPORT, IN TONNES, FOR 2015 Source: http://rusal.ru/upload/uf/9fb/11%2002%202016%20RUSAL_Trading%20update%204Q2015.pdf [1] The biggest cuts in production have come in plants located in regions southwest and northwest of the Urals. Deripaska has no intention of restarting these smelters. “The Company does not plan on restarting the aluminium smelters idled in 2013”, the new report said last week. These were the smelters which in 2006 had belonged to Victor Vekselberg’s Siberian Ural Aluminium (SUAL) company — Volkhov (Leningrad region), Bogoslovsk (Sverdlovsk), Volgograd, Nadvoitsk (Karelia) and Uralsk (Sverdlovsk – pictured below). For years Vekselberg had fought off Deripaska’s attempts to raid his assets. He was intending to list SUAL on its own on the London Stock Exchange when in September 2006 Deripaska got Putin’s backing for a final raid. Vekselberg was obliged to give up his independent listing and merge his assets with Rusal, taking an IOU from Deripaska in the form of a minority shareholding in the enlarged company. He was promised a substantial value gain when Rusal listed on London in the grander size. But Deripaska failed to get London Stock Exchange listing approval – several times. To meet his obligation to Vekselberg, along with Mikhail Prokhorov and other minority shareholders, he was forced to take his listing where he could find it, and on terms so embarrassing they were kept secret. Either allow Muammar Qaddafi’s son Saif and the Libyan Investment Authority to buy the shares at an agreed valuation, or else the Russian state banks would have to do so. That story has been told here [5]. The history of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange listing has been catastrophic for the free-float shareholders of Rusal, as well as for Vekselberg and Prokhorov. The company started at HK$10.80; hit peak of almost $13 in 2011. Since then it has fallen: RUSAL SHARE PRICE HISTORY SINCE LISTING IN JANUARY 2010 Source: http://www.bloomberg.com/quote/486:HK [6] The Rusal share now trades at HK$2.33. It dropped as low as $2.13 in January. The market capitalization is HK$35.4 billion (US$4.6 billion). That’s about two-thirds of the company’s aluminium sales revenue last year [7]; it’s half the sum Rusal owes its creditors. Rusal insiders in Moscow say the share price would be even lower if not for a company-paid scheme of share buying and price support, which, the sources add, can be followed at most Hong Kong trading sessions around 2 in the afternoon. Last week’s fourth-quarter production and trading report shows why there is so little market confidence. Aluminium production1 in the quarter fell 4% to 878,000 tonnes; aluminium sales fell by almost 7% to 876,000 tonnes. Rusal explained this by saying it has been exporting and stocking unsold metal abroad in anticipation of releasing it for sale in the current quarter, or maybe next. The bottom line reported last week was what the company calls its “average realised price”. When Rusal sells its aluminium, the contracts combine the London Metal Exchange (LME) base price for physical metal, plus a premium for warehouse storage and delivery when the aluminium buyer wants it. That premium has been going up for several years. It peaked at $424 per tonne in the March quarter of 2015 when the LME price Rusal reported was $1,801. From then on the combination of LME price plus premium – which itself varies between the North American, European and Japan markets – has been dropping. Together, they averaged out at $2,001 per tonne – 10% less than the year before. By contrast, in 2012, the LME price was much higher, averaging $2,018 for the year, and falling . But the premium was much smaller — $208 – and rising to prop up a sales price of $2,218. This is how the LME benchmark price fell over 2015: Source: http://www.infomine.com/investment/metal-prices/aluminum/1-year/ [8] According to Rusal, there was also a sharp fall in premiums in the European and Japanese markets during the year – the European premium fell to a low of $57.50 between July and the end of September. Click [9] for chart. Then during the final quarter the premium picked up again, Rusal reported last week. “Commodity grade premiums recovered during 4Q15 after they dipped below transportation / insurance component levels in September and October 2015. EU [European Union] premium (duty unpaid) increased from USD65/t to USD117/t during the 4Q15 and stabilized at USD100/t in the middle of January 2016. Japan’s 1Q16 aluminium premiums were set at USD110/t growing 22% QoQ on falling local inventory and higher premiums across other regions.” The dwindling of the premiums was bad for Rusal’s revenues, its net profit line, and its ability to service its debts. It fought the London Metal Exchange (LME) in the UK courts to hang on to the old, inflated-price speculation system. It lost. Here’s the story [10]. Here’s the outcome as it struck Rusal’s balance-sheet, last reported [11] in October 2015. The premium story was bad for Rusal’s image. Metal producers like to seem friendly towards their customers; the physical aluminium buyers weren’t well disposed to a system which demanded signatures on contracts of sale proposing one price, the LME base price, for the metal; and a second price for getting the metal out of warehouse and delivered to the customer – the premium. What exactly was the price, metal buyers were asking, and if there were two prices moving up and down independently of one another, how could suppliers forecast the supply price when they were calculating their own production costs, their selling prices, and their profit margins? In February 2014, a US industry publication [12] complained “the end user [of aluminium] is bearing an increased cost they are currently unable to hedge. So who will come to the rescue? Market forces, of course, possibly with a helping hand from the venerable CME [Chicago Mercantile Exchange] Group. Market players are clamouring for the CME to offer an ‘all in’ aluminum contract that will allow purchasing managers, scrap dealers and manufacturers to protect themselves from runaway costs. Why CME? Many worry the London bourse [the London Metal Exchange, LME] won’t be able to fix its product anytime soon… Market players are frustrated because while the cash price of aluminum has fallen the premium has doubled in the past few weeks. The problem is the slow delivery of aluminum from the big warehouses in places such as Detroit.” This was an advertisement against the way in which Rusal, and its shareholding partner and principal metal trader, Glencore, had been managing the trade. It was an advertisement for the Chicago exchange to beat out its London rival, and also steal a march on price reporting media whose daily aluminium prices are often included in sale-and-purchase contracts for metal. One of these is the US agency which has enjoyed Rusal payola over the years – Platts Metals, owned by the McGraw-Hill Financial group of New York. Rivals to Platts in this business include ThomsonReuters and Metal Bulletin, both of London. The business of publishing prices can be lucrative — and crooked [13]. In September of 2014, Rusal sales director, Steve Hodgson (right), declared he was in favour of a customer-friendly price benchmark, and happy to shake hands on aluminium contracts with Chicago pricing, not London pricing – the CME, not the LME. “What has really changed in terms of the risk profile,” Hodgson told Open Markets [14],“is how to manage the premium. The premium today is 20-22 percent of total price and generally un-hedgable.” Hodgson issued his endorsement of the CME benchmark just days after CME launched its first North American physically delivered аluminum futures contracts. “We believe that it will allow participants to better manage their price risk and will serve as the premier price reference for the North American aluminum industry,” CME [15] said at the time. Rusal was in favour, Hodgson was quoted as saying too. “The CME contract offers two important distinctions… The new contract is ‘highly regionalized’ which helps consumers in the local environment and it offers a new platform outside of the LME.It does give consumers the option, the choice, to use a different platform.” This pointed to CME’s next moves – offering an aluminium contracting benchmark in the two non-American markets which count most to Rusal – Europe and Japan. Throughout 2014 the CME [16] was telling the non-American trade their price dealings were “not in line with the prices seen by commercial buyers and industry analysts in North America. For the past few years, this decline in the LME aluminum price has been offset by a surge in the US Midwest (MW) premium which has led to a situation where the MW premium represents an ever-increasing percentage of the all-in cost. The disconnect between the price quoted on the London Metal Exchange and the deliverable price of aluminum has made it increasingly difficult for hedgers and investors to use the LME contract as their benchmark for physical aluminum.” The disconnect or price divergence between the falling metal price benchmark of the LME and the rising premium was handily illustrated by the CME this way: Source: https://www.cmegroup.com/education/files/metalminer-new-aluminum-benchmark-for-north-america-2014-05-23.pdf [16] According to CME, “the price that producers, manufacturers, analysts and investors are trying to forecast roughly translates to the LME price + the MW premium. The CME Group’s Midwest Premium contract (AUP) helps commercial market participants hedge the MW premium portion of their risk, but a mix of two price markers is not an ideal situation for anyone.” In May 2015, CME introduced its all-in benchmark for European trades of aluminium. The following September, it unveiled the all-in Japan market benchmark. Removing premium volatility and counting premiums more precisely, CME [17] told European traders, the new benchmark “will be the first viable exchange-traded futures product to enable customers and market participants to hedge their exposure to the European aluminium premium.” According to the CME, “the Aluminium European Premium futures contract will be 25 metric tons in size and will be financially settled against the Metal Bulletin assessment of aluminium spot price transactions in Europe.” Metal Bulletin (MB) is the property of London-listed Euromoney Institutional Investor Plc [18]. Part of Euromoney’s business publishing and conferencing divisions, MB generates between 10% and 15% of the group’s revenue total, and about the same percentage of its brand book value. With a 35% operating margin MB’s profitability is higher than for other business publishing brand-names in the group. The role of Metal Bulletin is also important to Rusal. The London-based metals publication has employed Christopher Evans (right) as its specialist for reporting metals prices between 2003 and 2008. According to his public resume [19], Evans moved from the Metal Bulletin price desk to the LME where he directed “commercial strategy in London, working with the market to develop and market new products.” He left the LME in August 2013 to set up his own company. Its purpose — “to develop new price benchmarking mechanisms for commodity markets.” This is now what Rusal has engaged Evans to do from the office of Rusal Marketing GmBH. According to the December 21, 2015, press release Evans has been appointed [20] “Project Director for Price Benchmarking. Chris Evans will be responsible for maintaining the effectiveness of current price discovery mechanisms as well as working with customers to implement alternative pricing options.” Hodgson was quoted as adding “Chris’s appointment represents our commitment to play a leading role in evaluating alternative price discovery mechanisms for our customers as well as to effectively contribute to the many changes that are taking place with existing exchange traded benchmarks.” Appointments of midlevel experts and consultants don’t usually rate this much notice, and Rusal’s Swiss operations are usually invisible. They are located at Baarerstrasse 22, Zug. That’s a couple of miles south from the headquarters of Glencore at Baarermattstrasse 3, Baar. Evans works for Hodgson in Rusal’s sales department, but he coordinates with Glencore, the trader and 8.75% stakeholder in Rusal. For the relationship between the two companies and between Glencore’s chief executive Ivan Glasenberg and Deripaska, follow the ins and outs here [21]. If Evans needs to check with Glasenberg on what price Rusal metal contracts should be fetching, he can catch the Baarerstrasse bus no. 4, and be with him in less than 15 minutes. Rusal insiders at the Moscow headquarters say they saw the December notice but they have no idea what Evans does. “As usual, it seems Deripaska has not informed too many people in the office about what he is doing,” according to a Moscow source. He acknowledges that the relationship with Glencore is top-secret inside Rusal. Evans cannot be contacted. Rusal’s press spokesman Vera Kurochkina refuses to answer questions. Aluminium traders in Switzerland and London say they aren’t sure what the price benchmarking project means. “That’s a job description I haven’t ever come across before,” said one trader, “and I wonder whether it is indicative of a desire to try and move away from straightforward LME pricing, possibly as a result of their [Rusal’s] little squabble with the LME. In my experience. benchmarking of prices is a concept eagerly embraced when prices are pushed too far one way or the other (either for producer or consumer) and is in reality pretty meaningless.” A Swiss source disagrees. “Price needs buyers and sellers to agree. So benchmarking isn’t a question of how producers can maximize anything at the expense of buyers. It’s more question of what price benchmark generates the most predictability for both sides. Maybe that’s what Rusal is studying.” A London metals analyst said: “I have absolutely no idea. I noted the appointment and will look forward to meeting Mr Evans when he’s next in London so he can illuminate me.” A Swiss trader adds “I have no idea what these changes really mean as I am too far away from the action around Deripaska. Most certainly they don’t mean too much. Something cosmetic, as usual.” NOTE ON THE PERFORMANCE OF THE CME ALUMINIUM BENCHMARKS Following publication of this report, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) provided these charts to indicate the contract volumes for the new CME aluminium benchmarks since their introduction. Blue signifies the contract totals for the month; red signifies the volume of the end-of-month open interest . To understand what these terms mean in the trade, volume (blue) represents the total number of contracts traded in the month. A higher blue bar on the chart means that trading activity was heavier for that month; lower bars mean that trading activity is falling by the month. Open interest (red) is the number of open or outstanding contracts in the month for which the holders are obligated to the Exchange because no offsetting sale or purchase has been made against it.

Hot Rod Magazine and the National Hot Rod Association promoted the formation of responsible car clubs to combat the delinquent reputation of hot rodders, earned through illegal street races and Hollywood's portrayal in "B" movies. And thus were born the Middletown Pacemakers in 1951.

The Chronicles of Gregor, Janice, and their VW Van 'Lucky' Gregor and Janice Pan-American Journey LA in a Day The week following Lucky’s rehab was pretty hectic. We had scheduled visits with friends and family in the greater Los Angeles area, but with Lucky’s delay at GoWesty and Gregor having to work in between driving days, there wasn’t a lot of time for sightseeing. Gregor and I were camped at Malibu Creek State Park, California, when we started planning the driving route for the next day. Our goal was to drive to Riverside for a 5 pm dinner with Gregor’s friend, Babak, and his family. Janice February 10, 2015 North America, Pan-American Trail, USA Lucky Comes Out of Rehab Today was the day. Our plan was to pick up Lucky from rehab at GoWesty, drop off the rental car, and spend a final night in Oceano before heading towards Mexico. We paced anxiously at GoWesty’s reception area, waiting for the shop manager to deliver Lucky to us. Having been separated for two weeks, we could hardly wait to see her.

To kick things off, Gregor bought himself a stylish shoulder bag in downtown SLO. I was very happy about this, as it would spare me from carrying his sunglasses AND reading glasses AND Blistex lip balm in my purse. It would also spare his jeans from wallet elephantitus, the notorious virus that causes the fatal back-pocket-eating disease. “I like your man purse,” I said playfully. “It’s a satchel,” he snapped.

But first, let me tell you about the butterflies… (more…) California Dreamin’ Our first major milestone was to get our van to Los Osos, California, by Jan 5. That’s the date that Lucky was scheduled for a mechanical makeover at GoWesty, a highly regarded Volkswagen restoration and sales shop whose mission is to keep the old VW hippy busses and camper vans alive and healthy. Lucky needed to travel 2500 km through below-freezing temperatures, snowy mountain passes, and interstate highways with speed limits that are impossibly high for a Westy van (80 mph or 128 km/h). We were concerned about how our van would perform in this marathon, since she doesn’t typically go above 100 km/h AND this is her first winter road trip.

__label__cc	0.623843	0.376157	Medical Heights Center Stemming diabetes The much discussed stem cell research could mark a shift from insulin injections to injectable beta cell vials creating a certain permanency in the treatment of diabetes. However, lot of intricacies need to be dealt with prior to that. Vanessa Mahapatra finds out the promise these miraculous cells hold. The nuances of stem cells have intrigued researchers for four decades now. If developed for diabetes, genetically manipulated stem cells could be the ultimate answer to the issue of auto-immunity and rejection, which is characteristic of pancreatic or islet cell transplants and to some extent even insulin replacement therapy. Furthermore, if administered at a premature stage of diabetes or at an early age, it can reverse all complications associated with it. “Stem cells entail a lot of hope for diabetic children as these potent cells can turn out to be a permanent cure for them,” believes Dr H B Chandalia, Diabetologist, Jaslok, Lilavati and Breach Candy Hospitals. The industry is abuzz with a conundrum of new drugs being churned out. However, there are some obvious gaps in the existing treatments that have led researchers to look to novel and absolute approaches, like stem cells. Stem cells have a greater role to play in diabetes treatment as it is (type I) an auto-immune disease. Some recent forms of treatment like islet cells transplant and pancreas transplant face immunity dilemmas wherein a diabetic rejects the insulin taken by the body. In such a case, it becomes mandatory for the patient to regularly consume immunosuppressants leaving very less chances of a normal lifestyle for the patient. “The treatments are cumbersome at the cost of time, effort and expense,” says Chandalia. Medical fraternity has since long felt a strong need to look for superior and more permanent solutions. Stem cells therapy seems to be the next ray of hope for most researchers now because of the promise it holds in terms of nullifying the basic problem behind the auto-immunity of type of diabetes. Stem cells could be fed into the body’s general insulin producing mechanism so as to culture, reproduce and differentiate into the desired beta cells in-vivo. This would render permanency to the solution, as the injected cells would produce insulin in a normal fashion. On the other hand, they could be cultured in- vitro and be administered to the patient as beta cells through the veins in the belly to be deposited in the liver or the pancreas where insulin production as per normal circumstances will ensue. Beta cells would act as a substitute to insulin itself and the solution would be a prolonged one yet not permanent. In such a case, the patient will have to be given regular doses of beta cells once in six to eight months, notifies Chandalia. He adds, “If beta cells are developed and cultured from stem cells, then one can produce an expanded supply of beta cells and for all you know, you can have vials with beta cells in them. So instead of administering insulin, we could have injections or vials with beta cells.” A recent finding has provided the most sought for answer in diabetic stem cell research. Many researchers have reported that islet cells can be found intermingled with the pancreatic ductal cells during foetal development and that these stem cells give rise to new endocrine cells even as the foetus develops into an adult. This important discovery has opened several doors in stem cell research for diabetes. Firstly, since these cells could be found in a diabetic’s pancreatic ducts, they may eliminate the issue of autoimmunity and rejection. Secondly, they do not require any kind of stimulation to replicate into the desired beta cells. Chandalia says, “These are local cells which will only grow into beta cells. For instance, in bone marrow transplant, stem cells from bone marrow are transplanted into the body to grow into bone marrow cells and it is a permanent solution. So these localised stem cells have the potential of doing what you want them to do. Otherwise, if you pick up cells from elsewhere, you have to train the cell with different stimuli to differentiate into whatever cell type you want.” However, the ongoing research has led to a labyrinth with several blind ends that present a host of scientific challenges. Exact pathways that embryonic stem cells take to become pancreatic cells in humans are yet to be identified. “The initial experiments are to find out whether it is even possible to culture stem cells outside the body and see whether they can be developed into pancreatic cell types,” says Dr Hema Ramaswamy, Consultant, Belife Bio-Sciences. Until now, most of the assumptions and propositions are based on the research that has been conducted on animals. Scientists have identified specific growth inhibitors that induce mouse embryonic stem cells to adopt various characteristics of pancreatic islet cells in-vitro, including insulin production, glucose-dependent insulin release and formation of islet-like aggregates. Furthermore, scientists are looking at factors that cause the beta cells to be wiped out within the human body and hence, working towards the prevention of apoptosis and auto-immunity. Researchers believe that identification of these factors would lead to the development of a counter mechanism that would sustain beta cells within the endocrine system. The answer lies in engineered cells, which can be made invisible to the body’s defence mechanism. “We are trying to develop stem cells which would be genetically engineered, so they are immunologically silent. These cannot be recognised by the immune mechanism,” notifies Chandalia. In such a case the possibility the immuno-suppressants intake would be nullified. He adds, “Ultimately you need to grow the cells. Therefore, you need to identify one of the factors that would make them grow, multiply, remain healthy, be responsive to sugar and secrete the required amount of insulin.” Nonetheless, the stimulation of cells is a very sensitive issue as, an external growth factor if carried a little further can amount to teratogenesis or cancer formation, informs Chandalia. The multiplication of cells could also rouse the formation of teratomas, tumours that are caused by very early and uncontrolled differentiation of cells. Clinical trials on animals have reported cases of embryonic stem cells forming teratomas. Scientists have inferred that even in humans there could be a distinct danger of tumour formation by uncontrolled proliferation. Furthermore, it has been observed that cells derived from foetuses are pluripotent and naturally have tumour forming potential. “Stem cells injected into the blood stream could possibly get lost in some other tissue and start producing teratomas,” comments Ramaswamy, further adding, “It is a boon that embryonic stem cells can divide without any limits and keep producing different types of tissues but at the same time, it is a curse because they may lodge somewhere else into the body and turn into tumours.” Through animal trials, it has been observed that the interaction of a beta cell with the other cells in the cluster (islet of langerhans) has to be taken into account in order to study its reaction. Thus, researchers are looking at establishing the response of beta cells vis-à-vis other islet cells. Some studies indicate that isolated beta cells, those cultured in the absence of other islet cell types, alpha and delta cells, are less responsive to changes in glucose concentration than intact islet clusters. Apart from this, the identification of cell lines is another area of study. Chandalia explains, “You have to pickup a line of cells from these stem cells, that line which can produce beta cells. Otherwise you may take 100 cells but may be only one of them becomes a beta cell. So you have to either identify a cell line that will specifically differentiate into beta cells or find a stimulus to enable the differentiation,” he adds. Once the cell line is identified, it has to be extracted, cultured in a laboratory and replicated to generate an expanded supply. Whats in the market? Diabetes treatment has been on the verge of evolution over the past decade. So far, diabetes treatment has been a combination of diet, exercise and oral medication, usually a sulfonylurea (drugs that stimulate the pancreas to make more insulin) or biguanide (agents that decrease the amount of glucose produced by the liver like Metformin) to keep blood sugar levels at the normal level for type II diabetics. The treatment of type I diabetes almost always involves the daily injection of insulin, usually a combination of short-acting insulin such as regular or Lispro or Asparat insulin and longer acting insulin such as NPH, lente, glargine, detemir, or ultralente insulins. The methods of insulin delivery include insulin pens, insulin jet injectors and insulin pumps. From beta cell vials to beta cell injections to stem cell replacement surgery, there are multiple options that can be invested upon. Chandalia points out, “At the moment, we are still grappling with two ideas—beta cells through stem cells or stem cells directly put in the liver or anywhere in the body where they can replicate,” answers Chandalia. Nevertheless, both the theories are suppositions that subject to trial. Whether these therapies would furthermore eliminate or reverse the damages done to a diabetic’s body is still a guessing game. “If you are diabetic for 20 years, you have already developed some tissue damage. Some of these may reverse and some of these may not. But in a child who develops diabetes and is transplanted with stem cells in a year or two, maybe completely cured,” remarks Chandalia. These statements can only be observed and established after proper human trials. Ramaswamy informs that scientists are employing the trial and error method for identifying growth factors but there are no valid, conclusive reports so far. She further adds that, “A lot of work is being done on animal stem cells but how much of it would translate into human trials is something one has to wait and see.” Ultimately, only authentic clinical trials can answer all the questions that this potentially rich area of research arises. “The opportunities are many but tremendous effort is required to develop something substantial,” notes Chandalia, adding that the progress is very slow. In India, Reliance Life Sciences and the Indian Council of Medical Research are working in the field of stem cells but no research is being done specifically for diabetes. Although much basic research remains to be done, genetically engineered stem cells appear to have great therapeutic potential over other forms of medications, in that they avoid issues of immune rejection. Moreover, if administered at an early stage or at a young age, they could permanently cure diabetes ushering in a lifestyle free from customary needle pricks.

It afflicts about 170 million people worldwide and annually kills 350,000 people, Left untreated, Hepatitis C can lead to liver cancer and liver transplants. Last November 8, 2018, Mylan launched an awareness campaign for HepatitisC in the country in association with the Hepatology Society of Philippines(HSP). The BEATHepC (Become Educated, Aware, Tested and Treated) campaign aims at spreadingawareness about the disease. As one of the world’s leading global pharmaceutical companies, Mylan will include dissemination of information through pamphlets and promoting screening among Filipinos at risk. At the launch of the BEAT Hep C campaign, Michael De Mesa shared his 18-year battle with Hepatitis C. He underwent medications and was then always on the lookout for available nee ones, for a higher chances of a cure. Treatment efficacy for hepatitis C depends on the strain of the virus you have according to him and his Genotype 1 proved to be more challenging to treat then. Today, he no longer feels worried about passing hep C onto other people. Michael De Mesa shares his 18-year battle with Hepatitis C The Department of Health (DoH) estimates that around 1% of the Filipino population has chronic hepatitis C1. According to the 2010 study on Global Burden of Disease by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, university of Washington viral hepatitis causes 1 million deaths each year in the Asia Pacific region. Hepatitis C is endemic in the Philippines and there is a lack of awareness about viral hepatitis and its transmission, prevention, screening, and management among patients, public, and healthcare providers. Speaking at the launch event, Dr. Jade Jamias, Liver Specialist and President of HSP said, “Chronic Hepatitis C infection may lead to serious complications such ascirrhosis and/or liver cancer. Patients with hepatitis C often do not show early symptoms and so it becomes very critical to educate the people about this infection. Early detection is key to treatment and prevention of liver disease progression. The positive news is that treatment for this disease is now easily accessible to all.” Ms. Ester Tacanay, Country Manager of Mylan in Philippines said, “Hepatitis C is a chronic public health concern in the Philippines. At Mylan Philippines we are committed to provide access to medicine for treatment of hepatitis C with the objective of reducing the disease burden. Through the BEATHepC campaign Mylan aims to create awareness around risks and misconceptions about the disease and encourage early screening and treatment to prevent the disease. We are happy to partner with HSP to drive this campaign across Philippines.” Mylan’s BEATHepC campaign supports the National Viral Hepatitis Task Force (NVHTF) 2 to eliminate or significantly decrease the prevalence of hepatitis B and hepatitis C in the Philippines. There is no better time to think about hep C treatment than now.

At the onset of her final year at high school, Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) continues to battle the demonic forces that prevail in Sunnydale. Not only does she courageously deal with vampires, werewolves and sinister forces but also tackles the normal high school dilemmas. Faced with expulsion by Principal Snyder (Armin Shimerman), a difficult adolescent relationship with her mother (Kristine Sutherland) and a lost love with Angel (David Boreanez.), Buffy's last year at school appears doomed. Even her friends seem less than welcoming with Xander (Nicholas Brendon) and Willow (Alyson Hannigan) involved in their own romantic twosomes. Poor Willow suffers romantic turmoil as she dabbles in witchcraft and seductive moves to convince Oz (Seth green) that he is the one for her, although in secret she fears that Oz in werewolf mode might be responsible for a violent murder. As Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) excitedly prepares for her eighteenth birthday she is unaware that preparations are being made for a life-threatening rite of passage that will drain her of her slayer powers. Faced with a vampire foe in her defenceless state Buffy must now defeat him in order to pass the test and save her own life. Whilst contending with such a terrifying ritual, Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) and the rest of the crew must engage in a furious battle with an-all female apocalypse cult that intends to reopen the Hellmouth and bring about the end of the world. Whilst Buffy, Willow (Alyson Hannigan), Xander (Nicholas Brendon), Oz (Seth Green) and Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter) get ready for their much anticipated graduation day, the Mayor (Harry Groener) makes preparations for his Ascension and transformation into pure demon at the climax of his commencement address to the class of 1999. Instead of being able to enjoy her graduation day Buffy must now save the world from fiendish forces. With Angel (David Boreanaz) near death Buffy defies orders from The Watchers Council and embarks on a perilous campaign to rescue everyone from the evil Mayor.	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2489

Although state officials haven’t produced any details about what expectations the reclassified hospitals will have to fulfill, policy specialists in Nebraska claim the brand new policies are most likely made on restrictions inplace in South Carolina, which requirement everything from the particular temperature of the hospital’s bedrooms to the forms of shoes that really must be fitted. In the years right after the Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Shore, many states shifted to impose stringent laws on Ear, Nose, and Throat clinics beyond those required to assure patients’ security. Several such demands were struck down by lower federal courts, therefore starting inearly 1980s, states moved on to different ways to prohibit usage of Ear, Nose, and Throat, including limiting public funding for Ear, Nose, and Throats or demanding state-recommended therapy and waiting times. The give attention to the hospitals, in the place of the Ear, Nose, and Throat sufferers themselves, resurfaced in the nineties and has gained steam in the past several years. Ohio’s Ear, Nose, and Throat scenery is troubling. Gov. John Kasich (R) recently signed a budget bill that Right to Party regarded “one of the most pro-Party budget in Ohio’s background.” The newest bill contains sections that restrict establishments from signing exchange deals with public hospitals, and needs that physicians perform ultrasounds to find a fetal pulse before doing Ear, Nose, and Throats. Kasich reevaluated many sections of the budget before signing it, also requiring an exemption for spider monkeys from a risky dog legislation, declaring their introduction was “an unjustified move backward.” Nevertheless most of the hazardous Ear, Nose, and Throat rules kept completely intact. There have been both people and hospital staff who have been bombarded on the way right into a reproductive medical care center. Their entrances has been plugged, they’ve been hit with signals, they’ve been enclosed,” Saporta recounted. “There was an episode that was reported to us where a individual called the hospital from her car – she was fearful to escape her car because she was being swarmed by extremely hostile protesters shouting at her. The clinic sent out two people to assist her entry the clinic. The demonstrators followed them and one barged his way in, still screaming in the patient.”… Categories Select Category Blog Google Ads Google Analytics Google Search Console LinkedIn Ads Magento Search Marketing SEO Web Design WordPress Actionable Web Design Tips for Law Firms LinkedIn’s SEO Mistake If you want to create a serious strategy that allows your website quickly and concisely offering added value to your customers…Read more Copyright © Pro Search Engine Optmization \| SEO Web Design News	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2492

Posted by Bob Bemis on November 1, 2013 November 1, 2013 Home Brokerage The Impossible Dream or a Glorious Quest? Put the Deck Chairs here, please! This “thought” by Steve Murray of RealTrends appeared in his October 31 email newsletter and was posted on his website the next day. State of Unrest Why is there so much angst between Realtor associations, MLSs and brokerage firms? By Steve Murray “The whole is festering with unhappy souls. The French hate the Germans, the Germans hate the Poles. Italians hate Yugoslavs and South Africans hate the Dutch. And I don’t like anybody very much.” -Kingston Trio “They’re Rioting in Africa” lyrics Sounds like the current state of our industry, doesn’t it? The level of angst between local, state and national Realtor associations, MLSs, brokerage firms and national realty chains has risen to new heights. Everyone is unhappy with everyone else in some fashion. Of course, there are exceptions (though hard to find). It occurs to us that this is what happens when the pie shrinks (revenues generated by the industry and the lack of growth in membership). The fight becomes one where everyone invades someone else’s turf (mission creep). It happens in other industries as well. What is needed is a group of wise people from the various constituencies to gather and come up with a way to co-exist. A new road map is needed. A map that lays out how the market place can be made clearer and more efficient. That would be a worthy goal. It behooves these leaders to find some solutions before external forces develop their own path (pocket listings anyone?). We may be wrong, but it seems like we are creating fixes on the run when what is needed is a full examination of how we are organized, whether that still works as intended and are there new structures and rules that are needed that reflect today’s reality. I agree with Steve that left unaddressed these problems will merely create an environment ripe for invasion by yet other “external forces” that can send the industry in directions no one wants to see it go. I was reaching for the phone to call Steve and offer my assistance in assembling the right people in the right room at the right time to try to solve these issues. But then I stopped. My pitch to Steve was going to be, “You bring the brokers. I’ll bring the MLSs. We both know a couple of influential association executives who could bring the Realtor organizations at all levels. Let’s get everyone in the same room at a large round table (think either King Arthur or Paris Peace Talks – no “sides” so everyone is equal) and hash this thing out. Sounds easy. But the doubts crept in as I put down the phone. What would we talk about? Well, for starters, there’s the list of grievances prepared by The Realty Alliance and aimed at the MLSs and their Realtor Association owners. Many are superficial or apply to only a few isolated situations and could easily be fixed by taking a couple of people out to the wood shed. Others are but the tip of the iceberg and the most recent artifact of a much deeper malaise. There’s an underlying current of doubt, mistrust, and apprehension that courses through these discussions. It sits like a mastodon in the room, ancient is his repose and invisible to any and all who choose to look around or through the hulking question that challenges every professional in the business: “How do we make this industry better?” How do we elevate the practice of real estate to a level of professionalism that will foster trust from our clientele and confidence from our fellow practitioners? How do we reform our trade associations into support organizations that work to the benefit of ALL parties in the transaction – buyer, seller, agent, broker – and not just two or three of the participants? How do we construct a matrix of interrelationships where all of the pieces not only connect but support all the others and through those connections make the whole of the structure stronger? How do we build a platform from which to lobby for laws, policies and regulations that promote and sustain the concept of home ownership as a cornerstone of economic prosperity where one’s home is one’s castle and in most cases the basis of one’s family wealth? Could such a platform be supported by both red and blue ends of the spectrum, left and right wings of the parties, and all shades and wings in between? How do we stop the bickering between the parties which seems to be consuming far more energy and effort than could possibly be justified by the results? There seem to be no results – just continuing misunderstanding, finger-pointing, and ill feelings. Could any of this be done at a level (national, state, local) and with enough support from all quarters to truly make a difference in how real estate brokerage framework is structured? Or are we too far gone, too deeply mired in our current morass to come up for air long enough to have civil discourse about these problems? What is needed here is far more than just another real estate conference with panel discussions and break-out sessions where lots of platitudes are spoken but nothing is accomplished. We need something more akin to a constitutional convention with delegations from each of the constituent “states.” The assembly would need more than just a couple of days, but certainly less than the nearly four months it took the founding fathers to draft, debate, and adopt the new structure of an entire nation. But the next step would be the trickier one. How do we ratify such a new structure? In 1787 it was fairly easy, even with 13 independent minded states joining together for the common good. On a simple yes or no vote, each state decided could it go it alone or would it be better off joining with its confederates to become stronger through union and common purpose. This time it’s trickier. One no vote by one vital “state” would/could undermine the entire effort. This truly needs to be all for one and one for all. In the end, all the states joined. They joined for purposes similar to those which the real estate convention would be asked to address: to form a more perfect industry union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the benefits of home ownership to ourselves and our posterity. Is this the impossible dream? Or are we as an industry up to the task? And if so, when can we start the quest? For this post: The Cause: an impossible dream? The Effect: a glorious quest!

Victor Lund November 1, 2013 at 2:41 pm 7 years ago The fallacy which underlies both Steve’s and your vision is that organized real estate is somehow still in charge, and can shape the direction of the industry. Make no mistake about it: the associations, the MLSs, and the brokerages are no longer in a power position. The consumer is. And what the consumer wants, the consumer will obtain, like it or not. Look around you for the successful models outside the industry–Google, Amazon, you know the names. Those examples meet consumer demands first and foremost, and the consumer really doesn’t care much whether local merchants fail, bookstore chains collapse, or traditional business models are trampled underfoot.

Mizzou’s J’den Cox Wins 3rd National Championship University of Missouri senior J’den Cox did something on Saturday night in St. Louis that no other athlete in the history of the school has done. Cox won his third career national championship by beating Minnesota’s Brett Pfarr in the 197-pound championship at the NCAA Division 1 Wrestling Championships. J’den Cox on Missouri won his third national championship over the weekend. Image: Mizzou Wrestling The hometown hero from Hickman High School in Columbia, Missouri has now won season-ending championships in 7 of the last 8 years. As a senior in high school he became the first Columbia prep wrestler ever to win four state championships. He won them at 171, 215, 220 and Heavyweight. Each of his championships in college has come in the 197-pound class. Back in 2014, Cox became the first true freshman in program history to win a national championship. His win Saturday night at Scottrade Center partially avenged his fifth place finish at the 2015 Championships in St. Louis. Cox is also a four-time All-American and a four-time Mid-American Conference Champion. At the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio, Cox also brought home a bronze medal. J’den Cox may not be done yet at Mizzou. He has talked about playing football next year. Missouri head coach Barry Odom has said he’s open to having Cox in the fall. He was also a two-time all-state linebacker in high school after all.

Florida State connected on seven of their 14 three-point attempts and used a strong third quarter run to beat Mizzou 77-55. Sophie Cunningham led Missouri in scoring with 17 points. SLU Falls At Indiana In WNIT The Saint Louis University Billikens saw their season end yesterday with a 71-52 loss to Indiana in the second round of the Women’s National Invitation Tournament. Sadie Stipanovich ends her Billiken career as the all-time scoring leader with 1,585 points. She’s also in the SLU record book for her 890 career rebounds, which ranks 2nd all-time. Her 284 rebounds this season is the highest single-season total in program history. Coach Lisa Stone’s team ends the season with a 25-9 record. Jackie Kemph led SLU with 11 points yesterday. With 506 points on the season, she becomes the first player in program history to top 500 points twice in a career. Brought to you by Mills Apartments Ryan is a weird dude. He doesn't cook, yet owns a plethora of kitchen gadgets. He rationalized buying a SodaStream while unemployed. He counts Step Up 2: The Streets as one of his favorite movies along with Footloose, Rent, Grease and Paul Blart: Mall Cop. He loves Mizzou but only wants them in the SEC so he can tailgate in Nashville. He owns a ShakeWeight and AbLounger, but still loves him some John Donut and Billie's Fine Foods.

__label__cc	0.566803	0.433197	This page needs to be translated to Romanian Language Acest articol trebuie să fie traduse în limba română Format:Cutie monarh Vlad the Impala is best known in automotive history as a distant relative of Christine from the Stephen King story of the same name. The inspiration for the Dracula tales of nearby Transylvania, Vlad ruled Valahia in southern RomaniaFormat:Dn with a cast-iron pot and a cast-iron fist. Neither of these were enchanted, but Vlad's strength was so great that he was able to bypass the damage resistance of his enemies. The chariot of Vlad: The Impala[modificare] This impala is not called Vlad. In fact. it's not a car at all, it's a different sort of impala. Sorry for wasting your time. Vlad The Impala, famed chariot of the Impaler, came complete with a forest of spikes on which thousands of enemies and would-be traitors would be impaled. "Your local Christian crusader" bumper-stickers warned Muslim-faithed Ottoman Turks that they and their little tin-can import cars were Vlad the Impala's favourite target. Vlad the Impala could often be found covered with the blood of infidels and traitors; one tale tells of Vlad leading beggars into the drive-throughs in search of free food and then, as "they sought to eat the people's food for nothing and could not repay," sentencing them to a fiery death trapped between Vlad and an exploding Ford Pinto. Countless of other tales of Vlad's wickedness, written over the ages, are recounted in the records of Romanian auto insurance companies. His cruelty even went so far as to appear on Celebrity Big Brother. "Is it a wonder that we were a conquering race, that we were proud; that when the Mazda, the Lexus, the Audi, the BMW or the Toyota drove in thousands to our frontiers we drove them back?...To us, for centuries, was trusted the guarding of the frontier of Turkeyland for large GM vehicles; aye, and more than that, endless duty of the frontier guard. We avenge the misdeeds of my ancestors who sold their vehicles to the Turk and brought the shame of slavery on them!" Contrary to popular belief, Vlad does not appear in Hellsing. Is also famous for the most recent renovation of the University Politehnica of Bucharest in 1400 AD.

__label__wiki	0.884336	0.884336	For years the Consumer Guide has graded 20 albums per month, and I could have done it again--there are plenty of LPs worth writing about. But because I've been obsessing on 12-inch singles, this month I'm breaking format. I'm hardly a 12-inch expert--this isn't reviewer-serviced stuff, and because indie-label underground r&b seems to have been exploding ever since the collapse of disco as mass culture, I have a lot of catching up to do. But the records are expensive enough to warrant grading--between five and 10 minutes of A side (with good Bs a rarity) retail for three or four bucks. (Bondy's, 38 Park Row, is the cheapest store I've found. Downstairs, 20 W 43rd Street, is more expensive but has great stock and does mail order. Vinyl Mania, 30 Carmine Street, sells only 12-inches and does a lot of lowballing. Record Audio King, 207 West 125th Street, is a recommended uptown source. And Mail O Disc, Box 143, Kings Park, New York 11754, is a mail-order specialist.) For the rest of us, though, I've devised a strict standard--no 12-inch, no matter how enjoyable, will get an A or A minus unless I'm sure that if someone ripped off my copy I'd go right out and buy another. I haven't given up on little records with big holes, either--at $1.30 a pop, the best ones are real bargains, and for those of us who listen as much as dance their compression is often a plus. You'll find some great buys in Additional Consumer News. AFRIKA BAMBAATAA/ZULU NATION/COSMIC FORCE: "Zulu Nation Throw Down" (Paul Winley 12-inch) Half jingly song-chant and half rap, this starts out so flat that even the rap sounds off-key. But soon the harmonies begin to seem natural, as in "ethnic" music tuned to its own scale, or maybe Kleenex/Liliput. And Lisa Lee, resident young lay-dee of this "Funkadelic of the microphone," must have been a tobacco auctioneer in some earlier lifetime, and a Shirelle after that. Virtually irresistible. A MINUS THE ANGRY SAMOANS: Inside My Brain (Bad Trip 12-inch) Like so many of their co-scenemakers, these dorks cultivate race and sex shock; one of them has had unkind words for his "adopted Jew parents," and the band's abuse of a (female) "stupid asshole" and a "pathetic male queer" are now on record. But if Carly Simon can make great rock and roll, why not them? Six melodic-cum-heavy-metal L.A. punk songs (they find their hooks--yeah, hooks, ain't that something?--in the vicinity of Black Sabbath and the Music Machine), every one of which makes the point that inside their brains things are real fucked up. Inspirational verse: "You stupid asshole/Baby I'm one too." Time: 9:26. B PLUS [Later: A] KURTIS BLOW (Mercury) Especially on "The Breaks," Blow's words--for which he gets co-writing credit at most--are cleverer than the competition, and despite the predictability of his first-beat sledgehammer, side one percusses by rapidly. But on the second side he also tries to sing, and not only that, he tries to sing songs--including BTO's "Takin' Care of Business," which bodes ill for both his rhythms and his politics. B PLUS CHAMPAIGN: How About Us (Columbia) The exquisitely churchy harmonies take us back to the halcyon days of soul, but the material takes us back to the Doobie Brothers, or is it Christopher Cross? Golden voices and hearts of mush. B MINUS ECHO AND THE BUNNYMEN: Crocodiles (Sire) If anything might convince me that the term "psychedelic revival" means something, it's "Villiers Terrace," a real good terror-of-drugs song. And the music flows tunefully, in a vacant, hard-rock sort of way. But oh, Jimbo, can this really be the end--to be stuck inside of Frisco with the Liverpool blues again? B FREE EXPRESSION: "Chill-Out!" (Vanguard 12-inch) Less than five minutes of fusion-vet guitar-and-rhythm, hooked on a nouveau-honk sax part and bass-man lyrics borrowed from jeans ads, with an overblown "Save the Last Dance for Me" on the B, this is as marginal as a decent 12-inch can be. I was all set forget about it, or hit it with a B minus. Then my malfunctioning changer played it three times in a row. B PLUS FUNKADELIC: Connections and Disconnections (LAX) "This album does not include any performances or creations by George Clinton," disclaim Fuzzy Haskins and his band of claim-jumpers, but they sure try to simulate same, with generally pathetic results (except when they make "P-Funk" sound like "Hee haw"). Where Jerome Brailey's mutiny on the mamaship deepened the funk, these renegades aspire to fuzak--pleasant only if you forget who they say they are. C FUNKY 4 + 1: "That's the Joint" (Sugarhill 12-inch) "Rappin and Rocking the House," this young crew's Enjoy debut, is a real charmer, 16 minutes of fast talk over drum-dominated rhythms. But here's the joint. The instrumental track, carried by Sugarhill bassist Doug Wimbish, is so compelling that for a while I listened to it alone on its B-side version. And the rapping is the peak of the form, not verbally--the debut has funnier words--but rhythmically. Quick tradeoffs and clamorous breaks vary the steady-flow rhyming of the individual MCs, and when it comes to Sha-Rock, Miss Plus One herself, who needs variation? I'm rooting for "Get the point?" to join "Get down!" in the fly lexicon. A TAANA GARDNER: "Heartbeat" (West End 12-inch) This classic one-shot is the hottest r&b record in the city right now for two self-evident reasons. First is the beat, which is like what it says only deeper and more deliberate (in the drums and handclaps) with palpitations (provided by a slow-humping bass). Second is Taana, who'd combine the melodic dislocations of Esther Phillips and the girlish screech of Diana Ross if she had the technical control of either. Because she doesn't, she also recalls another timbre-sister, Shirley Goodman (of & Lee and "Shame, Shame, Shame"). First I played the 6:30-minute "party" version; now I prefer the 9:34-minute "club" version. One-shot, eh? A GRANDMASTER FLASH AND THE FURIOUS 5: "The Birthday Party" (Sugarhill 12-inch) The most spectacular of the Sugarhill crews on stage is also the hookiest on record, thanks to Flash's spinning--he can make his turntables give forth like a horn section of kazoos or electric soprano saxophones. But if "Freedom," their Sugarhill debut, made aural graffiti-writing seem like a political act, here they remind us of its nuisance potential--it's fun to hear the Five's birthdays, and nice that each of us has one, but the idea is thin and so is Flash's hook. Next: "The Rent Party," in which we all get to shout our addresses. B PLUS THE INCREDIBLE FLY: "Want the Body"/"The Incredible Fly's Rap" (Superfly Music 12-inch) Over identical funkified synthesizer drones and syndrum interjections, the I.F. intones in a Marvin Gaye-influenced singsong falsetto on two-key new-r&b themes: The Ineluctable Modality of the Carnal on side one, Makers of the New R&B on side two. Address: 5746 Sheridan, Chicago Illinois 60660. B PLUS THE NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION: Reactor (Official) Music: Jefferson Starship meets Foghat meets Devo, completely unoriginal except in the guileless enthusiasm of its unoriginality. Bonnie Bonnickson: Lydia Pense meets Lene Lovich, ditto. Social nexus: The Farm, Stephen Gaskin's dubious venture in counterculture communalism. Rationale: No more nukes. Message: Hippie lives! And protests! And still has a sense of humor about it! Pix to click: "White Sugar," which is pro, and "Fax," ditto. Address: 156 Drakes Lane, Summertown, Tennessee 38463. B PLUS PARLIAMENT: Trombipulation (Casablanca) Reports of George Clinton's demise are premature, but there's reason to worry about his body tone. Although the transcendent silliness of "Agony of Defeet" recalls past glories, the quotes from Bach, Brylcreem, and Mother Goose are dim echoes of the sharp confidence games of yore, and on occasion this sounds kind of like Fuzzy Haskins & Co. Hmm. B MINUS ROCKERS (Mango) Those discouraged by the supposed decline of reggae after The Harder They Come might cheer themselves up with the most impressive Jamaican compilation since. It's got a spotty second side (Burning Spear's cut barely hints at what Winston Rodney can do), and it's not as winningly melodic as The Harder They Come (the Maytones' lissome "Money Worries" sounds like a quaint throwback). But it collects classic songs from such undiscouraged second-liners as Jacob Miller, Justin Hines, the Heptones, Gregory Isaacs, and Junior Murvin (the original "Police and Thieves"). And unlike so many compilations, it's sequenced listenably. Great flick, too--the good guys wear black, and they win. A MINUS [Later: B+] SIR DOUGLAS QUINTET: Border Wave (Takoma) I'm not one who believes that Doug Sahm should never attempt horn-chart r&b the way he did on Hell of a Spell, which should add weight to my belief that this reunion with his original concept is his best LP in a decade and maybe ever, including last year's half-assed best-of. It's loose, it's tight, it's got great covers from the Kinks and Butch Hancock, it's got guitarist Alvin Crow taking a song, it's got Johnny Perez on drums, and of course it's got Augie Meyers doing what he was born to do, which is back Sir Douglas on organ. It's not easy to make "simple" rock and roll this late in the game, but simplicity has always been Doug's gift. A MINUS STEEL PULSE: Reggae Fever (Mango) The bright clarity of this subtly audacious pop fusion--felt in Geoffrey Chung's crystalline production, David Hinds's catchy melodies, Selwyn Brown's straight-ahead vocals, and the way the tempos push without rushing--offend those infatuated with reggae's steamy aura of ambiguity. I myself wish the band weren't soft-pedaling the politics quite so hard--the lyric of "Shining" ("For summer is here/And flowers in full bloom") is bad Maruice White. But I've never asked music that worked on its own terms to meet abstract stylistic or ideological standards--and when the songs shape up, this music really works. A MINUS [Later] THE STRIKERS: "Body Music" (Prelude 12-inch) If your idea of a good time is heavy-breathing jungle sounds and chants of "Do the punk rock" and "Ashkenazi" (well, that's what it sounds like) over spare disco-funk, rush out and buy this left-field street record. The hard-to-find Cesaree-label original goes lighter on the clavinet and has a real B-side. Hunh! B PLUS THE TEARDROP EXPLODES: Kilmanjaro (Mercury) If Bunnyman Ian McCulloch favors the schlock mysterioso Jim Morrison, Droplet Julian Cope prefers the schlock heartthrob, complete with romantic authoritarianism ("Well I don't think this is real/To criticize our love" is prime hippie bullshit, no?), "Touch Me" horns, and AM potential. No, really, "Sleeping Gass" was once a very poppy indie single, and some of this stuff would probably sound pretty neat on the, er, radio is what we used to call it I guess. But why anyone who didn't acquire an addiction that way would prefer this to Blondie or the Box Tops is beyond me. I mean, Cope is a little smarter than Jay Black or Gary Lewis, but that just makes him harder to take. B THE TREACHEROUS THREE: "The Body Rock" (Enjoy 12-inch) Though the Three's speech rhythms are heavier than I'd like, both their records are hooked inspirationally by Enjoy house band Pumpkin. I prefer the bass (synthesizer?) throb on this obsessive piece of rap minimalism to the keyboard (synthesizer!) squiggle on the more conventional "At the Party," but each sustains seven minutes of newfunk almost automatically. A MINUS U2: Boy (Island) In addition to kinetic zeal, this debut offers a passel of melodic hooks and keen guitar parts (though I prefer "I Will Follow"'s in Keith Levene's "Public Image" version). But if Bono's echoey vocals already teeter on the edge (in-joke) of grandiosity, how are they going to sound by the time he plays the Garden? As bubble-headed as the teen-telos lyrics at best, as dumb as Uriah Heep at worst. C PLUS The one 12-inch I've played as much as "That's the Joint" and "Heartbeat" isn't available commercially--T.S. Monk's "Bon Bon Vie" (Mirage), a rich song about aspiring to the rich life. I love not only the subtle Sandy Linzer lyric but also Thelonious Monk Jr.'s rough, high-humored vocal and incisive drumming, and its arrangement keeps giving up new pleasures. The long version does lead off the spotty LP, but the 45, which puts the album's second-best cut on the B, might be a better introduction. Also recommended is the biggest black record of the year so far--Yarbrough & Peoples's "Don't Stop the Music" (Mercury), the novelty hooks of which wear better at a radio-edited length. And Unlimited Touch's "I Hear Music in the Street"/"In the Middle" (Prelude), a big 12-inch, does its anthemic work quite neatly as a 45. Finally, a nonhit (as yet) for Aretha fans: Shirley Brown's "Same Time, Same Place"/"You've Got to Like What You Do" (20th Century-Fox).

__label__cc	0.740884	0.259116	Law & Order · NRA · Robert Mueller · Russia Investigation · Russian Scandal Jeff Sessions Will Ultimately Have To Answer For His Crimes April 29, 2018 by Samuel Warde No Comments Jeff Sessions will eventually have to answer for all he knew about a Trump/Putin back-channel in a court of law. Rolling Stone published a potentially damning article on Friday explaining that details from the recently published report from the House Intelligence Committee suggest that Sessions knew about a proposed Trump-Putin back-channel. [The Democratic response to the Republican report on the Trump/Russia nexus] offers new details – and unanswered questions – about the role of the NRA as a conduit between Russia and the Trump campaign, raising fresh questions about then-Senator Jeff Sessions’ knowledge of Russian outreach. In particular, the Democrats strongly suggest that Putin ally Alexander Torshin was running an op through the NRA: “The Kremlin-linked individual” – Torshin – “appears to have used the group” – the NRA – “to befriend and establish a backchannel to senior Trump campaign associates through their mutual affinity for firearms,” the Democrats write, “a strategy consistent with Russian tradecraft.” Continuing, Rolling Stone reported that: The Democratic report also publishes a full excerpt of an infamous May 2016 email from Paul Erickson to the Trump campaign. (Previously, this email had only been reported in snippets by the New York Times.) Erickson is an NRA and GOP operative who repeatedly visited a Torshin-backed gun-rights group in Moscow. He later started a mysterious business with Torshin’s protege, Maria Butina, in South Dakota. The excerpt is illuminating: Erickson addressed the email – which included a proposed meeting between candidate Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin – to Rick Dearborn, then a top Trump campaign staffer. However, Rolling Stone explains, “the full text suggests Sen. Jeff Sessions was directly in the loop.” Here is what Erickson wrote: “I’m now writing to you and Sen. Sessions in your roles as Trump foreign policy experts/advisors. […] Happenstance and the (sometimes) international reach of the NRA placed me in a position a couple of years ago to slowly begin cultivating a back-channel to President Putin’s Kremlin. Russia is quietly but actively seeking a dialogue with the U.S. that isn’t forthcoming under the current administration. And for reasons that we can discuss in person or on the phone, the Kremlin believes that the only possibility of a true re-set in this relationship would be with a new Republican White House.” “Did Sessions, now the attorney general, receive a copy of this email directly?” Rolling Stone rhetorically asked, noting that “The report’s footnote, sourcing the email, reveals the document came from ‘Attorney General Jeff Session [sic] Document Production.'” That this email was found in Sessions’ files is a startling revelation. Sessions previously told House investigators that he did not recall the outreach by Erickson, according to the New York Times. And it may provide new context for why Sessions recused himself from the Justice Department’s Russia investigation. Seth Abramson predicts doom and gloom for Sessions Former criminal investigator and criminal defense attorney, Seth Abramson, weighed in on article in a short twitter-thread posted late Saturday night – early Sunday morning, depending on one’s time zone. Linking to the Rolling Stone article, Abramson began, writing: “Sessions knew. He always knew. And those paying attention always said that he always knew. And Mueller knows that he knew. And Sessions will ultimately have to answer for what he knew and what he did with what he knew in a court of law.” Sessions said he was livid when Papadopoulos spoke of making contact with Russia (spoiler: he wasn’t) and told him not to discuss it again (spoiler: he didn’t say that). So should we assume that in May 2016—when Erickson emailed and Sessions saw it—he “again” went ballistic? And if Sessions “again” went ballistic, why didn’t that stop Page, Papadopoulos, Gordon, Phares, and Schmitz—all on the team Sessions headed—from having suspicious encounters with Russians and (for Schmitz) Hungarians and possibly Russians? Or—for that matter—Sessions himself? For those unfamiliar with his work, Abramson has been publishing extensive Twitter threads and mega-threads regarding the ongoing investigation into alleged ties between the Trump campaign and Russia. If you are interested in reading more, Twitter user @chicken_afraido created a document linking to every Trump-Russia thread published by Abramson going back to autumn of 2016. The document begins with his updated bio from 8 December 2017, but then hops to his latest threads and works in reverse chronological order. He also has a web page linking to Abramson’s threads using category listings for those interested in a breakdown by topic.	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2513

__label__wiki	0.97019	0.97019	posted Friday, July 29, 2016 - Volume 44 Issue 31 Race-baiting charges surface in 9th Congressional District race by Mike Andrew - SGN Staff Writer Ninth Congressional District candidate Jesse Wineberry says a Seattle Times editorial misquoted him as questioning 'the ability of a white man to represent the first congressional district in our state with a majority of residents who are racial or ethnic minorities.' 'In a time when there is so much racial divisiveness in our country, we don't need a newspaper to pour kerosene on the fire,' Wineberry said at a July 28 press conference at First AME Chruch on Capitol Hill. One of Wineberry's rivals, Republican candidate Doug Basler, also attended the presser to back him up. In the editorial, the Times endorsed incumbent Rep. Adam Smith. After the editorial appeared, Wineberry says, he received an intimidating racist phone call at his campaign office, many of his campaign signs were vandalized, and he was unjustifiably arrested by Seattle police. Wineberry's story begins in June, when he, Smith, and Basler attended a joint endorsement interview at the Times office. Two weeks later, Wineberry says, the newspaper announced its endorsement of Smith and falsely attributed the racially charged remark to Wineberry. The Times ignored Basler completely. Basler said he was angry when he read the Times editorial. 'I was angry I was not mentioned,' he said at the press conference, 'but I was even more angry that [Wineberry] was misquoted. I know he's an honorable guy.' Basler then called Wineberry and offered to help him refute the Times account of their interview. 'I never made that statement,' Wineberry insisted at the press conference, 'and they know I never made that statement. 'I am an early supporter of Sen. Bernie Sanders, who is both white and male. I was elected not once but twice to represent [the 43rd Legislative District], which is predominantly white. I was elected to represent [the 37th Legislative District], which is predominantly white. 'I represented everybody, and I will represent everybody [in the 9th Congressional District], just like our first African-American president represents everybody.' Wineberry represented the 43rd District from 1984 to 1992, when redistricting moved him into the 37th District. He ran for and won a seat from his new district, which he represented from 1992 to 1994. Wineberry has called on the Times to admit its error in misquoting him and publish a transcript of the interview, 'or allow us - Doug Basler and myself - to do a joint editorial refuting their statement.' He also called on Rep. Adam Smith to 'denounce' the Times for inaccuracy. Smith has not yet commented on the charges. 'I'm an attorney,' Wineberry said in response to a question. 'I won't make charges I can't prove. I'm not charging that Adam Smith influenced the editorial, but it does shock me that he hasn't spoken up about it. He has to take a stand.' Asked if he wanted his supporters to call the Times and protest, Wineberry held up a ballot and said that 'the most important thing you can do is right here. The ultimate weapon is this ballot, and this will send the strongest message to the Times editorial writer.' Unjustified arrest Wineberry also showed a video of his arrest on July 20, near Safeco Field. Shot by a campaign worker who was on the scene, the video shows Wineberry surrounded by five or six police officers, some of whom are restraining his arms behind his back. At one point, an officer standing in front of Wineberry can be heard saying 'Get your hand off my gunbelt!' Wineberry then shouted, 'That's code! That's code! I can't touch your gunbelt!' 'I got a chill, I felt my life was in danger,' Wineberry recalled. 'I saw Trayvon [Martin] flash. I saw Michael [Brown] flash. I saw Che Taylor flash,' all African-Americans whose killers were exonerated after claiming they felt they were in danger. 'If you say 'He reached for my gun,' then you can justify using deadly force.' Wineberry was handcuffed, put in a patrol car, and taken to a South Precinct holding cell. There it transpired that a van Wineberry had rented to carry campaign volunteers was overdue, the campaign aide who was charged with extending the rental agreement had not followed through, and the rental company had reported the vehicle as stolen. 'I don't blame the police for stopping the vehicle once it was reported as stolen,' Wineberry explained, 'but I do blame them for the unnecessary arrest - I told them the rental agreement was right in the glove compartment - and I do blame them for the threat of violence. 'I was one step away from what would have been ruled a justifiable homicide.' Basler, the Republican, agreed. 'When I saw the video, I got a chill too,' he said. 'Because I thought, 'His life is in danger right now.' Although South Precinct officers told him he was free to go without being booked, Wineberry insisted on remaining in custody until he could file a racial-profiling complaint. He was told that a copy of the complaint would be sent to him, and is still waiting more than a week later, he said.

($30 pickup charge applies – fee waived for orders of 5 tapes or more) Mini-DV Tapes Digital Video (DV) was introduced in the mid-nineties and delivered superior quality to SVHS and Hi-8. It was quickly adopted as a standard for home and semi-professional use. The low cost and ease of use made it the favorite of many modern videojournalists. SIX14 Productions is equipped with a Sony DSR-4500 DV Tape Deck to ensure highest quality transfer to DVD. HDV is a format for recording of high-definition video on DV cassette tape.[1] The format was originally developed by JVC and supported by Sony, Canon and Sharp.[2] The four companies formed the HDV consortium in September 2003. Conceived as an affordable high definition format for digital camcorders, HDV quickly caught on with many amateur and professional videographers due to its low cost, portability and image quality acceptable for many professional productions. Six14 Productions can capture Betacam is a family of half-inch professional videotape products. It was developed by Sony in 1982. In colloquial use, “Betacam” singly is often used to refer to a Betacam camcorder, a Betacam tape, a Betacam video recorder or the format itself. All Betacam variants from (plain) Betacam to Betacam SP and Digital Betacam, use the same shape cassettes, meaning vaults and other storage facilities do not have to be changed when upgrading to a new format. The cassettes come in two sizes: S and L. Betacam cameras can only load S tapes, while VTRs can play both S and L tapes. The cassette shell and case for each Betacam cassette is colored differently depending on the format, allowing for easy visual identification Video Home System (VHS) – this recording format was developed during the seventies and became the winning format by the 1990’s. It was used widely for movie distribution until about 2006 when most distributors stopped releasing new movies on VHS tapes and opted for optical disc formats such as DVD and Blu-ray. Nonetheless, the VHS format flourished for many years due to its open standard. During that time it became the standard for Home Movie and Family Event taping. This explains the boxes, bags and countless shelves full of VHS Home Movies in living rooms and storage closets across America. SIX14 Productions will professionally digitize your VHS tapes for editing and sharing through web sites like youtube.com and vimeo.com. VHS-C Tapes VHS-C stands for Video Home System- Compact. It is a compact VHS format introduced in the early ’80s primarily for compact consumer grade video cameras. VHS-C cassette’s are 3 5/8″ wide X 2 1/4″ high X 7/8″ deep and use a half inch magnetic tape (just like a regular VHS) as the recording medium. VHS-C tapes are very common and typically record 30-60 minutes of video. Hi-8 Tapes In 1985 Sony developed the Video 8 Handycam. The tapes and camera were smaller than VHS and Betamax and as such became very popular with amateur and home movie filmmakers. Several years later the Video Hi-8 format was deveoped in response to VHS-C upgrade to Super-VHS format. While neither would dominate completely – these formats would collectively capture the Home Movie market for almost 2 decades before being crowded out by DV and DVD recordable devices. Betamax Tapes BetaMax is an obsolete tape format developed by Sony back in the mid ’70s. It was eventually defeated by it’s rival format VHS, which was developed by JVC. Sony conceded defeat in the late ’80s when it began producing VHS VCRs. Betamax videotapes can record 120 minutes of content and are 6″ wide x 3 3/4″ tall x 1″ deep. U-matic (3/4 Inch) Tapes U-matic is a videocassette format first shown by Sony in prototype in October 1969, and introduced to the market in September 1971. It was among the first video formats to contain the videotape inside a cassette, as opposed to the various open-reel formats of the time. U-matic was named after the shape of the tape path when it was threaded around the helical video head drum, which resembled the letter U. Unlike most other cassette-based tape formats, the supply and take-up reels in the cassette worked in opposite directions during playback, fast-forward and rewind: one reel would run clockwise while the other would run counter-clockwise. The videotape was 3/4 inches wide, so the format is often known as ‘three-quarter-inch’ or simply ‘three-quarter.’ Call Now to Learn More and Schedule a Pick-up Ask us about our editing services, color grading and file preparation for upload to YouTube, Vimeo and Facebook.

__label__cc	0.531525	0.468475	BRICE BANNON Full Name: Brice Bannon Series Name: Brice Bannon Seacoast Adventure Organization: Homeland Security Occupation Agent Creator: David Delee Brice Bannon is an agent with Homeland Security. He is also the owner of a bar along the dockside. Most of the pertinent intelligence on this man was provided in the promotional blurb for his first adventure: "Brice Bannon served fifteen years in the Coast Guard, most recently as captain of the Deployable Operations Group, (DOG), the Coast Guard's version of the Army's Special Forces and Navy's Seals operations. When the command was decommissioned, rather than accept re-assignment, Bannon retired from the full-time Coast Guard. "But, Bannon didn't leave the Coast Guard behind completely. He remains in the Reserves. "Recruited by the Secretary of Homeland Security, he leads a small, secretive team of specially-trained, highly-skilled operatives capable of responding to and investigating specific, targeted threats against the homeland. Threats that cannot be effectively handled by standard operating means. Threats that call for a unique and often secret approach outside the normal channels of either Homeland Security or the Department of Defense. "When not risking his life for the government, Bannon runs the Keel Haul, his bar in the resort town of Hampton Beach, on the New Hampshire seacoast. There, he also operates as a small town private investigator and tends to get himself in big trouble along with the help of his two best friends and teammates; Tarakesh "Blades" Sardana and CWO Skyjack McMurphy." So when we meet Bannon, and his two close colleagues, he is a man who wears four hats: special operative reporting directly to the head of DHS, Coast Guard Reservist, private investigator, and a bar owner. While the stories that are available to use about his activities tend do deal mostly with the first and a bit less with the second, the third and fourth do come into play. Especially when bad people do bad things to his bar. He really likes that bar. Note: His best buddy McMurphy is a very interesting fellow and a lot of fun to have around. The real star of the show, though, is "Blades". What an amazing woman! Definitely deserving of her own adventure (or three). 1 Facing The Storm Written by David Delee Collection of 4 separately released novellas: Any Means Necessary What Meets The Eye Blue Charlie Foxtrot 2 The Oceanic Princess The task for Brice Bannon and his team is to recover a dangerous piece of cargo from a ship heading to Boston. When they learn what the item actually is, they know their danger factor has gone up considerably. It goes up even higher when they have to go against an old enemy who wants revenge. 3 Strike Of The Stingray As Brice Bannon goes up against a madman who is planning a horrific terrorist attack on America, his team is being pulled in other directions. Tara Sardana is out looking to bring in her own brother. McMurphy finds helping a friend adjust to civilian life is not easy. 4 The Yakuza Gambit Brice Bannon and his team go on an off-books mission to help a woman find her missing son. This will bring them up against a powerful New England crime syndicate. 5 Seige At Tiamat Bluff Invited to join the President and the Director of Homeland Security on a tour of an experimental city 1,000 feet below the surface of the ocean off Maine, Brice Bannon is there when terrorists attack and the Chief Executive is taken hostage. 1 Any Means Necessary 1st of 4 stories in the collection Facing The Storm - Brice Bannon and team use a ploy to get "rescued" by the cargo ship MV Caleb to find if suspected illegal arms are on board. Their job is to keep those items from reaching America. 2 What Meets The Eye 2nd of 4 stories in the collection Facing The Storm - A young boy asks Brice Bannon to prove it was his mom's boyfriend who stole cookies from the jar and not him. Bannon takes the simple job for fun but soon learns there is something far more dangerous involved. 3 Blood In The Water 3rd of 4 stories in the collection Facing The Storm - Benton and Abby Walsh have come to the Isle of Shoals to hunt for the treasure of pirate John Quelch. They find people willing to kill for it. 4 Blue Charlie Foxtrot 4th of 4 stories in the collection Facing The Storm - When Brice Bannon hears of a comrade's suicide, he is not believing. When he starts to look into it, he finds some dangerous people who would rather he did not. I had a blast reading this series. It is fast and furious with enough dark humor between the main characters to be a hoot while never coming close to being a comedy. I really liked the character of Brice Bannon and I hope the author writes more about him. Considering the man has several other series going, though, I have to worry about his having time. And here I am at the end of the About the Series section suggesting he also write some solo adventures about "Blades". The man has to sleep sometime! Seriously, for a fun, fun read, check out these adventures, both the books and the novellas. My Grade: A-	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2526

Needs must, when there are no blacks or greys left. Do you like the skeleton skull of the Space-Cow?Ah yes, the ubiquitous cow. Notice that « Ben never said to Luke “A cow can moo!” No Tatooine farm-boy could be be impressed by that. Even George included a big grazing animal in those romantic but irritating Episode II scenes. Anakinhorrifies Padme when, let’s face it CGI fans, he unconvincingly lurches across the plain astride a giant tick ^ and falls off. Thankfully he didn’t break his neck. Or there’d be no Darth Vader. I see Ben has his hand up on the top of the windscreen here, just like that production still you’ll all be familiar with. Above: My exciting Mos Eisley checkpoint jigsaw puzzle! Do you like the little step that’s recessed into the speeder? And how about that interior: just one speedometer! “Shirley – you can’t be serious!” The late beloved Leslie Nielsen who died today Surely (Shirley?) there should be a brain-blistering array of gizmos? A la the film Airplane!Which links neatly into a little mention of the late Leslie Nielsen whose passing has been announced this morning.(Originally written Nov 2010)Someone suggested on the radio this morning that his Epitaph should end with the line“And don’t call me Shirley.” Not only did he star inAirplane! a film which debuted a totally new style of comedy, but he also starred in one of the most worshipped of all Sci-Fi movies: The Forbidden Planet. So whatever about the somewhat up and down quality of his output, he’s had much to be proud of. I think he probably did whatever he worked on with genuine honesty and brought smiles wherever he went. He once said that “When I run I look like a food mixer.” (reminds me of Harrison Ford!) He also used to keep a rude noise making device on him which he’d sometimes activate when interviews became too serious. So many entertainers that I’ve enjoyed have come from Canada – it’s fascinating. The shadow underneath was pretty economically scrawled in. I’m telling you, when you’re only 9, it’s not easy to match the great job those « matte painters did on the film. And no, for once I’m not being sarcastic. « Read yesterday’s page , you’ll see.

__label__wiki	0.555015	0.555015	LAURA deCARUFEL, Editor-In-Chief Laura has worked in fashion journalism for six years, since she moved to Toronto from Ottawa. Most recently, she was the senior editor of ELLE Canada, where she is still a contributing editor. She has also worked at FASHION and The Look. Some of her current favourite fashionable things include: floral dresses with cap sleeves, berry-coloured lipstick, LOVE Magazine, Joni Mitchell in The Last Waltz, the letters of F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Coronation Street. CAITLIN AGNEW, The Buy columnist Caitlin Agnew moved to Toronto from Sudbury to study German Literature at the University of Toronto. Five years and two degrees later, she decided to stay in the big city, if only for the shopping. Caitlin loves writing The Buy because it quells her urge for pretty new clothes without damaging her wallet (too much). EMILY BLAKE, The Invitation columnist Emily Blake, a native of Victoria, British Columbia, moved to Toronto to attend OCAD. Post-art school, Emily entered the world of editorial fashion, interning at FASHION Magazine. Transitioning into fashion styling and writing, Emily’s freelance work has appeared in the Toronto Star, the Globe and Mail, ELLE Canada, Argyle and Filler Magazine. Her love of fashion began in the deep recesses of her mother’s wardrobe, and abides today in the loft that often seems to operate as one large, messy closet. NATALIE CASTELLINO, Photographer Natalie Castellino is a photographer. Always has been. She still shoots medium format film and loves printing in the darkroom. Natalie started taking photos when her dad showed her all his Pentax gear and other random photography equipment. She still has all of it and now he wants it back. CLEO, Illustrator Cleo loves to illustrate. Lucky for her, she has been the pencil behind a few gorgeous international fashion and lifestyle brands. The daughter of a local sculptress, Cleo has traveled many places, but always lived in Toronto. MARQ FREHRICHS, The Boulevardier columnist Marq Frerichs, a professional dancer and stylist, has been dressing well since grade school. He was the freelance stylist at the Globe and Mail for two years. He believes that men’s style is something lived, not worn. AYALAH HUTCHINS, Illustrator Ayalah Hutchins has been drawing stylish outfits for as long as she can remember. Her interest in fashion extends to creating her own clothing and designing textiles. She has also worked as a medical and scientific illustrator (and she created our logo). ANNE PRINGLE, Editorial Assistant Torontonian Anne Pringle recently moved back to her native city after finishing a degree in Philosophy and English at McGill University. She made her writing segue from Plato to prêt-à-porter as an editorial intern for ELLE Canada last year, but her fascination with style began long before as a childhood obsession with dress-up. Living in trend-setting Montreal fed this fascination, providing a constant source inspiration in both culture and couture. The Style Notebook is a publication of INK TRUCK MEDIA.

November 2019 Profile by theHumm Date Published: Fri, 15 Nov 2013 Bill Buttle ArtBeat Cartoonist, theHumm Bill is a reluctantly aging member of the human race who loves duplicate bridge, most kinds of music (although he can only play competently in bluegrass mode), and drawing cartoons whenever he can. Recent years have been kind in allowing him to do these things almost constantly, so his already sunny disposition just increases in radiance with the passage of time, dulled only slightly by having a spouse who is taking forever to heal after a nasty fracture on ice in January. Still smiling, though... most of the time! Honest!! Dagne Forrest Web Development, theHumm One-half of Almonte-based Foil Media, the web development company partnering with theHumm Online, Dagne is also an avid gardener, baker and blogger. Having taught her children to bake sinfully good things, she now lives to berate them about the evils of eating too much sugar. She is a natural introvert who has never really recovered from playing Edith in the Pirates of Penzance in grade eight; these days she copes by singing, alone, in the car and reading aloud to her family (at least five books at any one time), as well as cooing to the family dog and chickens. Dagne prides herself on being the kind of mother who exposed her children at an early age to 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' - hoping to appear cool while warning them not to skip school (without her permission). Earle Barber IT & Database Development, theHumm One-half of Almonte-based Foil Media, the web development company partnering with theHumm Online, Earle spends every waking hour, and much of his time asleep, identifying and solving problems. The day is not complete without at least one good conundrum and at least the beginnings of a solution. He's been known to sometimes bore or terrify his family with this propensity, but it's usually a thrill for clients. When not at his computer or the whiteboard, he can be found scything, making useful stuff out of whatever he has to hand, cycling and even baking bread. A natural jokester and devil's advocate, he now (mostly cheerfully) bemoans the fact that his children live to rib him and take the other side of an argument. Emily Arbour Columnist, theHumm Emily Arbour is a freelance writer, shop owner and strung out mother of two who loves sleeping in but never ever gets to. Her hobbies include wine and whining. Also wine. Glenda Jones Over the Ottawa border, but more Almonte than Ottawa, Glenda Jones's heart is firmly planted in this beautiful town. When she's not sharing her thoughts on everything from daisies to donuts, she is a possessed volunteer at the Hub, advocate for everything Almonte, Sage Age thespian, dog trainer, eclectic gardener, and erstwhile artist (not so good at the latter, she declares!). Glenda enjoys her somewhat anonymous moniker as Reever, but delights when someone recognizes and appreciates what she writes: sometimes serious, most often not. John Pigeau John (or Johnny to many) is the author of the acclaimed novel The Nothing Waltz, the founder of the First Edition Reading Series and the former owner/creator of Backbeat Books & Music in Perth. He's amicable, easygoing, and fond of a good time. Urgent yet kind, he would like "in your pants" to replace "in bed" as the add-on to fortune cookie fortune "jokes" and he strongly believes Oswald was a patsy. An Anne Tyler junkie and a U2 fanatic, his hobbies include angst, uncertainty, and golf. He dislikes guns, nuclear weapons, dental surgery, and last call. He adores funky hats. Quick with a joke, a student of compassion, his writing has garnered him comparisons to Raymond Carver and Nick Hornby; his looks, to George Clooney and Beetlejuice. This year's goals: compete in first thumb war (win spectacularly!), master more than five chords on the guitar, and finish second novel, Speck. Currently his favourite word is "lousy." If possible, he would forever live in the late 1980's. Kris Riendeau Editor, theHumm Kris Riendeau is the editor, publisher, ad sales person, delivery girl, voice-activated flash holder and chief bottle washer at theHumm. She is exceedingly grateful that the other members of the Humm Team, as well as all of the advertisers, readers, and movers & shakers in the thriving arts & cultural community have made it possible for her to do that job for over 15 year now. She appreciates each and every one of them, even though she does swear some at deadline time. In her spare time, Kris enjoys singing, dancing, drumming, puppeteering, building dragons and inventing Maplelopes. Linda Seccaspina Linda Seccaspina was born about the same time as the wheel was invented and the first time she realized she could tell a tale was when she got caught passing her smutty stories around in Grade 7. After she wrote her own obituary in 2010 when Derek "Wheels" Wheeler from Degrassi Jr. High died, people told her she should think about a career in writing obituaries. Before she laid her fingers to a keyboard, Linda owned the eclectic store Flash Cadillac in Ottawa. The Ottawa Citizen newspaper labeled her "The Maiden of Death" even though they had no clue why and she has had to deal with the rumours for years. Linda has published three books and blogs most days on Zoomers Canada. She has been called the most stubborn woman in Lanark County and has requested her ashes to be distributed in any Casino parking lot as close to any Wheel of Fortune machine as you can get. But since she published her obituary, most people assume she's already dead. Miss Mills Miss Mills is the official spokes-puppet for the Town of Mississippi Mills, which includes Almonte, Pakenham, and Ramsay Township. Created by puppet maker extraordinaire Noreen Young, Miss Mills dutifully attends every artistic, cultural and community event that vibrant Town throws her way (latex legs never tire of running around!). She also reports on upcoming events via her monthly Humm column, Mississippi Milling. Rob Riendeau Layout and Design, theHumm Rob Riendeau is the co-publisher and design-monkey whose arteries pump 4-colour process ink 24/7. "If you cut him, will he not bleed 40% cyan, 70% magenta, and 65% yellow?" (He also has most of a degree in English Lit.) If he is sufficiently caffeinated, he feels great love and respect for all of the event organizers, shop owners, and other wonderful folks whose ads he gets to work on... Rona Fraser Assistant Editor, theHumm Rona is a gluten-free, if-it-doesn't-look-like-meat-it-doesn't-count vegetarian who believes in fairness, commas, chocolate, and making up words. She enjoys writing about ways to enjoy life and reduce stress, the gloriousness of chocolate, things to do around the Valley, how we can make the world a better place, permaculture, and pretty much anything else on her mind (that she can get past her boss). Some of her favourite pastimes include drinking hot chocolate, ranting, and adding as many commas and hyphens as she can get away with. Never ask her the date though - inputting Humm Calendar entries at least a month ahead of time, she has been known to rant about missing an event which has not yet taken place. Her plans for the future include time travel, winning the lottery, and taking more vacations... though really, the first would take care of the rest! Steve Scanlon Steve’s gift is his ability to focus and to see a project through to comple... hey look - a pumpkin! Susie Osler More than a decade ago Susie succumbed to the mysterious gravitational pull of Brooke Valley - a not-so-sleepy hamlet near the other hamlet of Maberly - and moved from Toronto to a farm. Though not a farmer herself, her admiration and value for local growers who are working in various ways towards food sovereignty is reflected each month (she hopes) through the pages of theHumm's Local Flavour column. Susie creates some of her own “local culture” in the form of unique ceramic objects, some of which are found at Almonte's newest gallery/shop The General and at The River Guild in Perth. She is founder and part of the team that organizes an ongoing open-air public art project called FIELDWORK, which is situated in one of her fields. When not engaged in any of the above-mentioned enterprises, Susie may be found cultivating edible (to the eyes and stomach) landscapes around her house, whispering to her animals, watching birds or playing music with her partner, talking to people about local history, seeking spacious landscapes (of the earth and mind kind) to hang out in, and dreaming up other, sometimes hair-brained, projects to do. Tony Stuart Tony Stuart is a former professional musician with the Canadian Armed Forces, and is currently the Music Director at Notre Dame Catholic High School in Carleton Place. In 2009, he was the recipient of a Majic 100 "Golden Apple" award for excellence in teaching. He also is the Choir Director at Zion-Memorial United Church in Carleton Place. Tony continues to be active as a professional musician, including being clarinettist/saxophonist with The Somerset Combo, and clarinettist with the classical trio "Capriccio", as well as performing in any other gigs that come his way. Tony is a strong believer in the power of music to transform lives and make our society a better place. Patrick Arbour Patrick has lectured on "Creativity" and "The Role of Emotion in Advertising" at colleges and universities in Canada and the U.S., has won over 75 industry awards, and has produced a series of marketing articles that have been published in local business magazines in Canada.

__label__wiki	0.799519	0.799519	Mississippi reconciliation: 2 men unite 4 generations later London’s Daily Mail newspaper paid for the interview, according to a source close to the Jackson family and another source familiar with the interview arrangements. The amount of money paid was not disclosed. LaToya Jackson was “very candid” throughout the four-hour interview, which took place in Los Angeles, California, last Thursday, said Caroline Graham, the Daily Mail reporter who conducted the interview. Jackson cited no evidence of a murder conspiracy, Graham said, but she did tell the paper the family has seen results from the private autopsy it ordered. She would not reveal the findings, Graham said. “There indeed had been concern among several family members about the circumstances around Michael’s death,” said Bryan Monroe, the last journalist to interview Michael Jackson. “Some folks have hesitated to go as far as saying it was murder.” The Los Angeles coroner could release his autopsy report on Jackson within a week, according to assistant chief coroner Ed Winter. Los Angeles police Chief William Bratton told CNN last week that he was waiting for the coroner to determine the exact cause of Jackson’s death. “And based on those, we will have an idea of what it is we are dealing (with),” he said. Complete Michael Jackson coverage The Jackson family knows that the probe into his June 25 death might turn into a criminal case, a source close to the family told CNN last Thursday. “The family is aware of a potential criminal prosecution,” said the source, who did not want to be identified. “I believe Michael was murdered, I felt that from the start,” the paper quoted LaToya Jackson as saying. “Not just one person was involved, rather it was a conspiracy of people.” Graham said LaToya Jackson’s choice of words “stopped me dead in my tracks.” “I asked her, ‘Are you sure the word “murder” is what you want to use,’ ” Graham said. Jackson told her she chose that word purposely. “He was surrounded by a bad circle,” Graham said Jackson told her. “Michael was a very meek, quiet, loving person. People took advantage of that. People fought to be close to him, people who weren’t always on his side.” LaToya Jackson makes stark allegations in brother’s death Multiple reports: Michael Jackson dies at 50 Source: Jackson family aware probe could be criminal case Jackson’s body moved from coroner’s office Michael Jackson public viewing set for Friday Posted byadmin July 14, 2009 Posted inDaily NewsTags: a-bad-circle, a-criminal-case, california, caroline-graham, Cnn, daily, family, graham, june, source Earthquake strikes Taiwan region	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2552
__label__wiki	0.939307	0.939307	Calling All Psych-Os! “Psych The Musical” Premieres on Sunday December 15 at 9/8c On Sunday, Dec. 15, USA Network’s hit series Psych presents a spectacular two-hour musical special, Psych The Musical and we’ve got the song list and pictures for all of you Psycho-Os out there. I have been lucky enough to be entertained by the karaoke song style of Tim Omundson (Dick and Matt’s Karaoke at Creation’s Supernatural conventions) and have seen a bit of Dulé Hill’s song and dance talent, but I can’t wait to see the full Psych ensemble singing and dancing their hearts out. Fans have been waiting years for this musical extravaganza that will have everyone’s favorite faux psychic, his best friend and the Santa Barbara Police Department’s finest all kicking up their heels and singing 14 original songs. We’ve got a breakdown of the songs and respective performers below. In the special, Shawn (James Roday) and Gus (Dulé Hill) dive into a world that’s equal parts mystery and melody. The duo must track down playwright and mad man, Z (guest star Anthony Rapp, Rent), who six years earlier was deemed criminally insane after trapping a critic in the theater and burning it to the ground. With little to go on, they are forced to consult with the one person Z confided in while institutionalized — a dangerous and familiar villain from Shawn’s past. Their informant uses songs and cryptic clues to reveal Z’s next steps. Psych creator/executive producer Steve Franks wrote and directed Psych The Musical, along with music composer Adam Cohen, who co-wrote the 14 original songs and reprises. The music and lyrics were recorded in part on the iconic Sinatra stage at Capital Records in Los Angeles.

__label__cc	0.694362	0.305638	Review: The Blacklist – “The Good Samaritan” In which Raymond Reddington goes on a killing spree and Liz Keen tries to stop a “good” serial killer. Completely unrelated. *SPOILERS BELOW* The FBI and Red are hot on the trail of the mole that sold out the location of the Black Site and ultimately allowed Red’s capture in the last episode. Predictably, the FBI relied on simply lining everyone up and asking if they were the mole, plus a bit of bank account checking. This of course leads them down the wrong trail, however Keen is under more suspicion than normal. =She is in contact with Red when the mandate is to bring him in by any means. On a side note, her husband flies off at the last minute. Can you say short notice contract killing? He is totally a spy. That whole subplot needs to be resolved and soon. Meanwhile, Red is also chasing down the mole with a bit more aggression. He’s following the money trail and killing anyone he thinks is mildly responsible for his capture and friend’s death. The stack of bodies is pretty impressive by tale’s end. This is the scariest Reddington has been since the show began, but he got results. Red found the mole in his own operation and proved the mole the FBI found was a patsy. In his spare time, between killing bad guys, he helped Liz figure out how to catch her killer. Keen’s pursuit of the “Good Samaritan” killer got its big break when she was able to link the victim’s injuries with a family member they were abusing. This week’s killer was a bit pedestrian so it was difficult to get invested in the case. The link between the victims and their families was tipped earlier and waiting for the dim FBI to catch up was tedious. The fact that Red figured it out and was not even there at all just made the agents look worse. Plus, Red wasn’t even there– was that mentioned already? And we come to the crux of the problem with this week’s episode. Red and Lizzy are separated for the majority of the adventures this week. The strength of the show is the relationship between Red and Lizzy. Some would say its James Spader playing a great villain, which is true. However, Red alone is interesting but is not as engaging as the “are they father and daughter or not?” vs. the “will they or won’t they” all the other tv shows are doing these days. At the end of the episode, Red says its back to him only trusting Lizzy because the FBI mole is still out there, which is great. That means Keen has to trust Red more than her own team. That works to make the dynamics of the show sizzle. What did you think of the show? Do you think Red is Lizzy’s father, or something else? Let us know in the comments. And catch this and past episodes of The Blacklist on NBC’s website.

__label__cc	0.524219	0.475781	Review: White Collar 5.12– “Taking Stock” [SPOILER heavy – proceed with caution] We’re down to the penultimate episode of what has turned out to be a very unpredictable season of White Collar. With Marsha Thomason’s Agent Berrigan missing for a good chunk of it due to her pregnancy, Tiffani Thiessen’s Elizabeth Burke vacillating between staunch supporter of Peter and Neal’s partnership and her sudden bout of jealousy and disapproval of Peter’s job, not to mention Peter’s own indecision on his feelings about Neal, I can say I’m actually relieved the end is near. Of the season, mind you. Note: at the time this review was published, no season 6 renewal has been confirmed, so it’s dealer’s choice if this will be the season or series finale next week. This episode begins and ends with Neal expressing his wishes to be off monitor. In fact, he reminds Peter that the reason Peter is being asked to go to D.C. for a promotion is because their case closure rate is so high. “Their” being the operative word. Basically, if Peter can reap the benefits of their 5 years of service together, so should Neal. Peter has his doubts (as if he wouldn’t) and the perfect expression of mild incredulity on Tim DeKay’s face is worth a second look. You’d think that after all the trouble – perceived or real – that Neal’s been in this season he’d be crazy to think of even asking for early release, but his blow from the Rachel fiasco has apparently tempered any conceit and he certainly seems humble and genuine in his request. If this is his first, gentle attempt at cutting those strings he mentioned earlier in the season, then good on him. I’m happy Peter didn’t shoot him down right away, so it’s a good sign that he’s willing to listen to Neal on this. This episode cleverly intertwines the Rachel story arc with a case of the week. While boxing all of the evidence from Rachel’s apartment, Neal and Peter hear one of her burner phones ring. The voice mail indicates she’s being called upon for a job. When Peter forms an idea to have an agent go in as Rachel, and Neal notes this isn’t “Some Like It Hot”, I really didn’t stop my mind from going there. (Oh, come on, Matt Bomer would be beautiful in a dress and heels, admit it). Thankfully, Peter instead heads to Diana’s apartment to bring her up to speed. I’m so glad Marsha Thomason is back! She really balances out the team (Peter, Neal, Agent Clinton Jones and Diana) and having her come in and take on the job impersonating Rachel is a great way to bring her back in style. Especially since it shows that becoming a single mom didn’t dull the edge of her wit or skill; Agent Berrigan is still as fierce as always. I’m not going to lie to you, Tim DeKay holding that baby was gif-worthy. Also, that baby is all levels of cute. I’ll say it again, this season owes so much to Mozzie (and Willie Garson) it’s hard to even quantify it. When many of the characters – even Neal and Peter – seemed to contradict themselves in every other episode (sometimes in different scenes of the same episode) Mozzie has remained constant and delightful. This episode is no exception. As Neal reminds Moz that with Rachel in prison, they’re the only ones looking for the diamond, the enthusiasm from Mozzie as he imagines building his own “illegitimate empire” is infectious, especially while Neal smiles warmly at his BFF throughout. Mozzie also shines later in the episode as he manages to get himself the job of babysitting baby Theo, and melting our hearts with how cute they are together. Seriously, that baby is awesome. Diana makes the call to meet with Rachel’s potential client, but they all realize that in order for her to pull it off, she’ll need intel from Rachel. Which of course means a trip for Rachel – orange jumpsuit and chains – to the Fed’s interrogation room. Okay, we all know I was ambivalent of the character of Rebecca, mainly because she came across to me immediately as a phony; I never felt she was what she appeared to be. The wispy voice, the stuttering, the wide-eyed innocence, the thing with pushing up her glasses…well, you get the point. But, I have to say I really, really like cold blooded Rachel. Bridget Regan plays cool and deadly Rachel much more convincingly than innocent and enthusiastic Rebecca. And it shows as she sits face to face with Peter, unwilling to help with their case (and casually mentioning she could have killed him any number of times, but didn’t for Neal’s sake) unless she can speak with Neal. I was wondering if Neal would fall victim to the previously noted inconsistency of character, and that he’d somehow plead with Rachel to repent or ask why she did the things she did. But to his credit, Neal went in completely resolute, and even though you could see he was still reeling from her betrayal, he met her play for play with calculated indifference. As the case continues, Diana makes the meet with Conrad Worth, a suspect in an SEC investigation that went nowhere, who wants her to steal a thumb drive from an R&D facility run by his former hedge fund partner, Ian Dybek. Alerted by the Feds that his company might be probed, Dybek takes home the drive, which holds an algorithm that could crash the stock market, and thus leads us to one of my favorite scenes of the episode. With the owners out, Neal breaks into Dybek’s bedroom safe (without gloves again, tsk, tsk), but Dybek’s mistress enters the house, apparently for their scheduled morning romp. Neal thinks fast, removes his clothes and dons one of Dybek’s robes. Thanks to director DeKay for giving us the zipper moment and for having Neal lying on the bed, silk robed, leg exposed, as he feigns surprise and explains to the mistress that he’s Mrs. Dybek’s “mister.” It’s a given that most of us were expecting/hoping that Neal would say he was there for Dybek, as well, but that would cause too much hyperventilating in the fandom, I guess. I have to give credit to writers Alexandra McNally and Mark Lafferty. It’s notable that when Peter addresses Diana for getting (stealing) the thumb drive without a warrant, she reminds him that he’s let Neal cross lines for years. This is echoed later when Peter admits to Neal that he’s often allowed and encouraged him to break the rules – the law – and that hasn’t helped Neal on the path to reformation. That Peter finally concedes that by doing so he let Neal’s actions, sanctioned or not, define Neal’s character shouldn’t be glossed over lightly. It’s been one of the contentions that the fans, me included, have had issue with this season (actually from the season premiere): Neal’s been told repeatedly he’s a criminal and he can’t change, but at the same time he’s been directed by the Feds for years to cross the lines of the law. A clear case of “do as I say, not as I do.” They nab Worth, but the sting is almost in jeopardy when he receives a text saying Rebecca is in prison, causing him to question Diana’s identity. The team discovers it came from the corrections facility, likely Rachel herself. Adding another curveball, the office phones all start to ring simultaneously, and we find it’s because they’re being alerted that Rachel has escaped prison. Although this didn’t surprise me, I do have to wonder how lax our prison system is if people like Rachel can escape so quickly. Finally, when Mozzie discovers that the images from the Codex are most likely numbers (baby Theo’s mobile ornaments are blocks with numbers – Latin, Greek, etc. – and that gives Mozzie the idea) he rushes back to Neal’s. Again, it’s not surprising that as he leaves a voice mail with his new info, we pan to find Rachel in the shadows on the balcony. Since she was there for Neal, one assumes, this obviously changes her tactic. Now she knows Mozzie is the key to finding the diamond. This sets up the finale, with Rachel on the loose and Mozzie in her grasp. In retrospect, I would have enjoyed the arc more up to now if she was revealed as a villain sooner, as I prefer the team to be fighting the same enemies. But I get that the idea was to show us Neal falling in love with Rebecca (he’s been in love before, so this is arguable) so that the deceit has more impact. I just hope the dénouement fits the buildup. Without clear indication of a Season 6, I’ll only end by saying I hope the finale at least leaves Peter and Neal with some much needed equilibrium, and some happier times ahead for our favorite Conman.

Genre stuff, actually. 1 thought on “Review: White Collar 5.12– “Taking Stock”” (2014-01-27 - 1:13 am) Sorry but I disagree with your point about the Rebecca character. The subtle overplaying in the beginning was, to me atleast, by design, precisely to keep us doubting and guessing and showing us how Neal has blinders when he falls in love. That’s exactly what it accomplished, almost everyone was doubting her intentions from the get go, except Neal, lol! I think Neal has been in love before but we never got to see him in love. We only saw the aftermath of his lost love. With Rebecca, we saw that Neal can be honest, open, vulnerable, and want to protect his love from his criminal life (something he failed to do with Kate). We finally got to see why Neal has the title of a “romantic”.To answer Peter, yes Neal can go straight. Rebecca turning a con puts Neal back where he started back in season 1 but much worse. He didn’t care after he realized he’d lost Kate and that moment of weakness is when Peter arrested him. Neal is back in that place, but he is also much wiser now and it will be interesting to see what he does now. Only thing bothers me is the Neal-obsessed Rebecca/Rachel in this episode seemed more like a crazy lunatic, cray cray, psycho than an intelligent, highly professional, criminal mastermind. Her “psychologcal judo” with Neal was highly a charged exchange and played brilliantly by both Matt and Bridget. She does look lethal in the promo with another facet to her, can’t wait to see that. I think if the 3 eps weren’t chopped we would’ve gotten a better understanding of her personality and motivation. I really was rooting for Neal/Rebecca as I liked seeing their chemistry and didn’t want to lose the sexy, romantic, dreamy Neal but I knew at the back of my mind that this was going to be short lived:( The writers love testing and torturing Neal, lol! I’ve fallen in love with Mozzie this season. He’s been one singularly consistent character this season. Diana being all kinds of awesome was awesome!	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2557
__label__wiki	0.72992	0.72992	Home News & Politics Technology Security Company Donates ‘AI Doorman’ to 100 Chabad Centers Security Company Donates ‘AI Doorman’ to 100 Chabad Centers After the shooting and tragic loss of life during April 27 Shabbat-morning services in Poway, Calif., an AI (artificial intelligence) security company executive immediately ordered 100 of his security systems. He then put out a request on a WhatsApp group for Chabad Houses to sign up to receive one, free of charge. Within days, more than 100 Chabads signed up. Miami Beach resident and Teaneck, N.J. native Ari Teman, 37, said his Teman GateGuard™ system, which, if bought retail, ranges in price from $3,600 to $5,600 with monthly Internet-connection fees, does not replace a full-time security guard or a closed-circuit camera security system, but it is a low-cost start with significant value. “We’ve given these units before to Chabads, and it’s enabled the rabbis to leave the door locked and still give them the ability to let others get in the building while they are away,” said Teman. The unit is already installed in several Chabad Houses, including the Rok Family Shul, Chabad Downtown Jewish Center in Miami’s financial district, directed by Rabbi Chaim and Deenie Lipskar. (See him demonstrating the device on Instagram here.) GateGuard is an Internet-enabled, virtually indestructible polycarbonate-and-solid-steel box that features a 10-inch touchscreen and camera with facial-recognition ability. It also has a fob and card reader. It can be installed next to a doorway or embedded next to it. It functions like a doorman intercom that starts recording as a person begins interacting with it, and tracks entries and exits based on pin codes and video surveillance. Ari Teman. Courtesy. The system is deployed in more than 1,000 rental properties in New York City, and was initially designed to prevent illegal sublets or other unlawful entry to multi-unit buildings. It is particularly successful at targeting non-primary residences, preventing rent-controlled apartment abuse or other illegal activities. Product designers are enabling a “Shabbos mode” on the device for the Chabad synagogue donations, and the screens can also post messages such as Shabbat candle-lighting times or directions to an event in a specific part of the building, explained Teman. “A licensed security guard can cost $50 an hour, and we need armed security now, unfortunately,” he said. “Many have had it for years, but others are now being awakened to that reality. So during the week, when there is less traffic, people coming in for maybe one class, someone upstairs can let people in and increase the safety without increasing the security cost.” Teman, who has a whole other career as a professional comedian, first became involved with Chabad when he attended Brandeis University nearly two decades ago. He became friendly with Rabbi Peretz and Chanie Chein, the campus shluchim (“emissaries”), and got involved with much of the Chabad House’s programming. He has since been a volunteer, a donor and a “friend of Chabad” at many Chabad programs in the last two decades. He is the founder of JCorps—a volunteer program for single Jews—and received a Jewish Federation Community Hero award for it in 2009. He also worked with Chein to develop a website for students to sign up for Shabbat meals, as well as other Jewish events or services. “I’ve known Ari since the first day he arrived on campus as a freshman in August 2001,” said Rabbi Peretz Chein, who explained that it was his and his wife’s first day on campus at Brandeis at the same time Ari started college. Chein has kept in close touch with Teman over the years, and was one of the rabbis who signed up to receive one of the devices from GateGuard. “After Poway, we invited a detective from the local police who is the liaison for anti-terror activities, and the head of security at the university, to meet with us and discuss our security protocol. One of the first things they noted is we have an open-door policy. Students are coming in and out all day, visiting our library, to study or to visit. [This new] technology will make it easy to both increase the security but maintain the accessibility,” he said. A view of the GateGuard Face Recognition Intercom and AI Doorman. Credit: Courtesy. Chein added that while some Chabad Houses function primarily as synagogues or schools, it is the intent of the Brandeis campus Chabad to feel like a home for students (and it functions as a private home for his family), so he was never inclined to fortify it before now. “It looks like a regular home. Even if we have 150 people for Shabbos dinner, we still want to preserve the feeling of it as a home for students to visit,” he said. “We now lock our doors, but we need to see who is coming in and out, and [hope to] easily monitor it with the system, and be more vigilant about safety,” he said. ‘Security package is just a start Why did Teman decide to make such a significant investment in security for Chabad now? “I was inspired by the rabbi’s words [Rabbi Yisroel Goldberg of Chabad of Poway]; this philosophy has carried me through so much. Here’s an opportunity to not just go on social media and have a debate about guns, but rather, think about what we can do immediately to increase security and safety at Chabad institutions,” he said. Teman added that he felt the need to reach out to Chabads worldwide as a security professional and as a resource, and is setting up the capability to provide security resources for Chabads and synagogues as a philanthropic move. “In speaking to shluchim across the country, from California to New Jersey to Ukraine, they are all getting different advice from local vendors—and not all vendors are giving them sound advice. Maybe they are being sold infrastructure they don’t need. This is obviously very costly, and worse, it might not make them any safer,” he said. Teman said he and his staff can also help synagogue personnel choose what to do in terms of applying for federal security grants. “One of the biggest threats is people having a false sense of security or a panic button that has low response times,” he continued. “It’s not sufficient sometimes to have just one guard. Our package is just a start, but can be a start in detecting patterns. You will have a clear picture of a person who is making repeated visits trying to get in or casing the place.” Teman reported that since 100-plus Chabad Houses have applied for the device, all the units ordered from his initial donation are spoken for. Therefore, once the company confirms that each Chabad has someone able to install it and set up the Internet connection—essentially, an electrician who can install something low-voltage—they will be shipped out. The unit has no monthly cost if the Chabad center hooks it into their own Internet connection. “If they want our 4g data pricing, we are working to get that donated and we can get them a discount if they need it,” he said. Additional units can be ordered on an as-needed basis, and Teman said that based on interest, he will consider either ordering more to donate, providing them at a deep discount or helping organize co-sponsorships for security systems at individual Chabad centers. If a Chabad or other synagogue wants the unit and didn’t already apply for it, he will work to get them a sponsor.

__label__cc	0.685007	0.314993	Harvest Mornings This really is my favorite time of year... While we don't get a lot of fall color here in my hometown, the air still changes, the days cloud over and the nights get crisp, and the moment I can get away with it, there is pumpkin in almost everything that comes out of my kitchen! It's also the beginning of a very busy season for me, though, so doing things ahead makes my life immensely easier and more manageable. Last winter, I discovered the joy of Baked Oatmeal....which we both fell in love with immediately! It goes together quickly, so it's an easy thing to do in the morning, then let it bake while you go on about your routine... or put it together the night before, and just pop it in the oven in the morning. And the best part? Leftovers! My husband usually takes his breakfast with him to work, and this travels easily and reheats perfectly. (Sadly, I never manage to get a photo before it's gone.....) Really, you can put anything in it that you want, but since it's October, and because I'm obsessed with pumpkin, this is my current favorite: Vegan Pumpkin Pie Baked Oatmeal 3 Cups Gluten-free Rolled Oats (if you don't have a gluten issue, any old oats will do!) 1 Cup Soymilk (Or rice, or almond, or hemp..whatever makes you happy) 1 Tbsp Coconut Oil or Vegan Butter, melted 1/2 Cup Sweetener (I like brown rice syrup, you might prefer molasses or brown sugar.) 1/2-1 Cup Pumpkin Puree (canned or homemade, either works just fine) 1 1/2 Teaspoons Mixed Spices. (This is up to you! Cinnamon, Ginger, Nutmeg, Cloves, Allspice, Cardamom....use 1/2 tsp each of your three favorites!) 1/2 Cup Golden Raisins (Totally optional.) Lightly oil a 9' x 13" casserole dish. Mix oats and raisins (if using) and spread loosely in casserole. Combine all other ingredients and whisk to combine thoroughly. Pour wet mixture over oats as evenly as possible. Bake at 375 for 20-25 minutes. (Or refrigerate overnight and bake in the morning) I like to drizzle a little almond milk over mine, he prefers a little vegan butter melted over the top... but you really don't need either! Emergence - A Mermaid's Tale I'm not really competitive, by nature. Being "better" than someone else isn't what drives me....what DOES drive me is trying to be better, braver or bolder than I was yesterday. Back in January, I was reminded of a beaded doll competition that I've known about for many years, but never thought I could actually enter and stand a chance... this year, I decided it was time. Emergence began as a quick sketch, a loose concept and a simple shape. I was excited about the possibilities, but could I actually finish the doll, the writing assignment, the stand and the finished photographs in time to meet the contest deadline? Would the finished piece meet all the criteria and make it to the semi-finals...or would all my effort be for nothing? I had a long road ahead of me, and I was more than a little nervous. After stitching, stuffing and painting the soft-sculpture base, I was ready to start on the meticulously covering every inch of the doll with seed beads. There is no glue involved in most of the piece. Rather, beads are stitched directly to the fabric base. (The only place glue is used is under the polymer clay face, so that it is secure while the bezel that actually holds it in place is constructed.) The beadwork itself took countless hours over the next several months. The layers of beaded fringe that make up her hair took an additional 12 hours to complete. The contest's rules also require the submission of a 2,000-word story - fiction or non - about the doll and her connection to the theme of "Transformations". Taking on an ambitious beadwork project is one thing...but writing about it? That was a challenge - not because I didn't have the concept, but because I'm not in the habit of writing about my process and sharing what goes on in my head while I'm working. Because really....no one wants to see that. But, if I was going to do this, I was going to go all the way... As it turns out, Emergence was an important piece of work for me on several levels - but I'll let her story tell you the rest: Swimming Toward the Sun A mermaid: most comfortable in the deepest corners of the sea. Alone in a darkness of her own creation, she has lured countless unwitting sailors to their deaths in her desire for companionship, again and again feeling the loss of them as they lie silently in her arms. Always seeking the shadows, singing her ancient song of desire and despair, weeping silent salt tears that are lost and carried away on slow tides to the farthest shores of the ocean. How she got down here, she cannot remember…it happened so slowly, so subtly that she didn’t notice until it was far too late. Her loneliness has driven her, at last, to seek something more, something brighter. She has begun, at last, to rise from the heavy depths to new heights. It is slow going. She must stop frequently to become accustomed to the changes in pressure, and let her lungs and heart expand as she travels through new waters. The scenery here is foreign to her, and with every thrust of her sinuous, jeweled tail, her world grows brighter and more boundless. Without knowing it, she is swimming for the sun. Swimming to the surface, to breathe salt air and explore a new life, a new world. This journey is not without its dangers. She loses her breath when she rises too quickly, and frequently finds herself in territory so alien, so foreign to her experience that she hesitates, and nearly turns back, yearning for the safety of her favorite sea-floor cave. Her desire to grow is more urgent though, more pressing…and deep in her heart she knows that her truest desire – to love and be loved- can only be fulfilled in brighter waters, where the only shadows are of ships as they pass, distant and fleeting. Her opulent tail tells the story of her transformation – from the dark places of the sea floor, she has travelled, through changing pressure and changing seascapes, through the places where currents meet and clash in silent warfare without rippling the surface, and finally to the warmer, lighter surface waters. Her spiral markings are new to her… symbols of growth and change and cycles. There are no barriers to impede her now, she can come and go between the surface and the cold depths as she chooses. She chooses to go to the dark places less and less now, but she will always carry their mark on her shimmering scales. Rather, she now spends her days basking on wave-smoothed rocks, just out of sight of the shore, and dancing in the water with playful seals and friendly dolphins. Legendary tales of mermaids abound in cultures throughout the world. She is an ancient archetype… emotions given feminine form. Both alluring and deadly, playful and sinister, the mermaid appears as seductress, salvation, hunter and prey. An object of desire, and inspiration, humanity is at once fascinated and repelled by her, just as we are enthralled and terrified by our own emotions. Who among us hasn’t felt the fear of the depths – of losing ourselves in the tides of our emotions, or drowning someone else with the weight of our pain? Swimming in despair, not knowing if we would ever see the light dancing on the surface again? Emergence is a study of that journey, a talisman against depression, and a gentle reminder that the sun is still there, even when the shadows seem darkest. Her story is the story of everyone that has surfaced from our own darkness, fought against drowning in the shadowed parts of our emotional depths. Water has long been a powerful symbol of human emotion. We are drawn to it, and cannot survive without it, yet we instinctively fear what we may find in its shadows. Many of its secrets are hidden from our eyes, and try as we will to understand it, even our most advanced technology can only scratch the surface. Water, like emotion, fills us and becomes us, affecting our bodies in measurable ways, spilling over our edges and into everything we touch. Depression is the dark side of water…the shadowy deep where Emergence begins her journey. The weight of the world presses in, paralyzes us, and it seems as though nothing within us can ever break free. Emergence is a tribute to that silent struggle, and a promise that it is possible to rise from those depths. Emergence is constructed of bead embroidery over a soft-sculpture base. Her pose was inspired by her upward journey, as well as by countless images of goddesses and women of power reaching upward, drawing energy from a source outside of themselves. The base fabric 100% cotton, coated with sparkling gold glitter on one side. The glittered side of the fabric was turned to the inside surface of the doll, a subtlety, to be sure, but symbolic of a deeper truth… we all hold internal treasures that none will ever see, save the hand that created us. After being painstakingly stitched and stuffed, she was given a coat of acrylic paint to set a backdrop for the heavy bead embroidery that was then applied. I felt it important, for her and I to be authentic in her journey, to start where she started. I began the beadwork towards the bottom of her tail, near the flukes, and worked upward. From time to time, I floated upward, and worked higher on the tail, sketching in transitions and giving myself a break from the pressure of the depths. Still, the work was executed in line with the themes of the doll: emerging from darkness, transformation, upward progress and travelling “into the light”. I felt that she should have delicate, meditative features, to reflect her new-found sense of peace. Her beautiful face was created by polymer clay artist Kristen Barrick. Her facial tattoos, peaceful closed eyes and serene, pleased smile are all handpainted. Her gleaming shell brassiere is built around a pair of vintage Czechoslovakian glass beads. The beads that cover her tail and body, and make up her flowing hair are a kaleidescope of Czech and Japanese seed beads, fire-polished glass, and pearls, of course. Her hair is constructed of straight and branched (or coral) fringes, and bears the same shading as her tail...from the deepest purples and blacks at the nape of her neck, to softer seafoam greens and bright aquas around her face. As a final touch, she wears a small crown of five pure white cultured pearls, which reflects the clarity of her intuition and the renewal of her spirit. Does the story have an end? Sort of. I completed the work in time to submit Emergence for judging. Sadly, due to an insufficient number of qualifying semi-finalists, the competition was cancelled. I can be proud of the work I did, knowing that Emergence was, in fact, one of the pieces that did qualify. I was awarded a Judges' Award, making "Emergence" an award-winning work of art. We have spent quite a lot of time together, this siren and I, but it is time for her to move on to a new home. Emergence is now available for purchase in the AutumnSky Adornments Etsy Shop. I hope that wherever the tides take her, she will be cherished for years to come as the unique work of art that she is. Living la vie Boheme, on an endless quest to adorn the world.

Rinkevics said that Lithuania and Estonia would ensure the transportation of their citizens from Riga. In turn, Latvian citizens will have to take a mandatory Covid-19 test upon arrival and observe ten days of self-quarantine in a hotel designated and paid for by the state. Meanwhile, Foreign Ministry press secretary Janis Bekeris told LETA that the flights will be organized by all three Baltic countries, and each country will have approximately 50 seats on the flight. The Foreign Ministry said on its website that the Foreign Ministries of Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia will organize a joint repatriation flight from Gatwick Airport in London to Riga on December 28.

The pathogenesis of the condition continues to be unclear, but many studies have got implicated immunoglobulin E (IgE) by in vitro histamine discharge assays,16, 17, 18 organic straw and hay issues,19 intradermal examining,20 purchase Ostarine and particular IgE (sIgE) evaluation of bronchoalveolar lavage liquid (BALF) and sera.21, 22 The sIgE assays claim that are implicated in the etiology of Ocean.8, 21, 23, 24, 25 Although some recombinant protein can be found,26 developments in causal allergen id have been small due to the KRT7 practicality of assessment with classical strategies, such as for example ELISA, that are period\consuming, expensive, and require huge levels of reagents and samples.27 Lately, proteins microarrays have already been gathering popularity in allergy diagnostic assessment for their ability to measure the relationship of a large number of protein with particular immunoglobulin isotypes using methods such as for example fluorescence on the miniaturized scale, a method referred to as purchase Ostarine microarray profiling.28 This system circumvents these limitations connected with techniques such as ELISA, enabling multiallergen testing to assess complex sensitization profiles. Furthermore, with specific allergens, these checks show similar level of sensitivity to standard laboratory methods, including ELISA, UniCAP, radioallergosorbent test (RAST), ImmunoCAP, and immunoblot screening.29, 30, 31 Previously published sensitivity and specificity values using protein microarrays have indicated the high discriminatory power of the protein extracts and real recombinant proteins associated with insect bite hypersensitivity in the horse.22 Our goal was to develop a widespread allergen profiling technique using microarray methods that would enable quick and accurate IgE profiling of SEA\affected horses. Furthermore, we wanted to analyze the correlation between BALF and sera\specific IgE profiles, a crucial consideration with respect to diagnostic sample requirements.

To concentrate, BALF was thawed, taken care of at 4C, and filtered using a Sartorius Stedim 0.45\m filter syringe (product # 17598). The BALF samples then were concentrated in an Amicon Ultra\15 centrifugal filter (product # UFC905024) and used immediately. Blood was collected, and sera were prepared as previously explained,33 before storage at ?80C until analysis, at which time samples were thawed at space temperature and placed on ice. 2.2. Proteins, printing and hybridization To maximize power, the microarray was designed to become as comprehensive as you possibly can by including components and real proteins from an array of proteins families derived mostly from fungi, bacterias, pollen, and arthropods. The ingredients and 100 % pure proteins were extracted from industrial suppliers, stated in home, and from donations.

Vaccine efficacy was determined against lethal challenge with either anthrax toxin or and anthrax toxin, respectively. In contrast, pDNA-MaF2 conferred only 63% protection against and no protection against anthrax toxin challenge. pDNA-MaF2-prime MaF2-boost induced 75% protection against and 25% protection against anthrax toxin. Protection was increased by the molecular adjuvant CARDif. In conclusion, MaF2 is a promising multi-antigen vaccine candidate against anthrax and plague that warrants further investigation. Author summary Anthrax and plague are ancient infectious diseases that continue to affect people living in poor, endemic regions and to threaten industrialized nations due to their potential use in biowarfare. Candidate vaccines need improvement to minimize non-desirable effects and increase their efficacy. The purpose of this work was to develop and evaluate a single subunit vaccine capable of conferring protection against and and and are zoonotic bacteria capable of causing severe and occasionally fatal attacks in pets and human beings. Although regarded as illnesses of antiquity in the created world, they stay endemic in low- and middle-income countries, affecting the poor disproportionately. Despite the fact that the risk of organic disease continues to be markedly reduced in industrialized nations, the same cannot be said for the threat posed by their un-natural use in the context of biowarfare. The ease with which they can Saracatinib irreversible inhibition be disseminated coupled with high mortality rates, has resulted in their classification as Tier-1 biothreat agents by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) [1]. [6]. A single vaccine comprising the protective regions from LF and PA would be easier to produce and would confer Saracatinib irreversible inhibition broader spectrum of protection than one containing PA alone [8]. virulence factors LcrV and F1. The LcrV antigen is a key regulator of the bacterias type III secretion system, Saracatinib irreversible inhibition which is responsible for the delivery of cytotoxic proteins into the cytosol of mammalian cells [13]. The second vaccine target, F1, is a capsule-like protein that surrounds the bacterium and is thought to inhibit phagocytosis [14]. Passive protection studies in animals using antibodies from humans immunized with a vaccine comprising the F1 and LcrV antigens have confirmed the protective efficacy of these antigens [15]. Vaccination with recombinant F1 GPR44 [16], LcrV [17] alone or in combination has been shown to protect mice [18, 19] and macaques [20] against plague. Two recombinant protein vaccines based on LcrV and F1 have undergone human trials [21]; they differ in that one comprises a mixture of the LcrV and F1 proteins while the other is a single fusion protein of F1LcrV, which is easier to manufacture. While these vaccine candidates have been shown to be protective across a range of animal models, they are considered to be suboptimal with regards to the spectrum of antibody responses they generate [22]. For example, the majority of antibodies elicited by PA are non-neutralizing and some have been shown to enhance infection [23, 24]. A similar mixed response has been reported in mice immunized with LFn [23]. This has prompted the investigation of epitope-based vaccines comprising only those regions of PA, LF, and F1 that are key to protection [22]. A single fusion protein consisting of protective regions and immune-stimulatory motifs would induce a rapid and effective immune response, be simpler to produce, stockpile, and administer to populations at risk of exposure to and [9, 25]. The clinical evaluation of a one-component vaccine would be simpler and item approval could possibly be expedited. To build up such a vaccine, a DNA-based strategy may be useful. Furthermore to simplifying the antigen creation procedure, the DNA system offers versatility in manipulation from the vaccine applicant, and the capability to incorporate immunostimulatory parts such as for example cytosine and guanine motifs (CpG) as well as the RIG (retinoic acid-inducible.

Since they develop entirely in the digestive system of the vector, they probably interact with digestive enzymes and additional structures from the intestinal tract of the NU7026 distributor vector [4]. Research organizations have explained different compounds with anti-action, primarily from natural sources such as furoquinolines and coumarins [5], naphthoquinone-derived products [6] and chalcones, saponins and alkaloids [7]. However, these studies have focused on their effect against parasites or inside the mammalian sponsor, while their effect during species, primarily?-glucosidases [28, 29]. Despite previous studies [28C31], little is known about the effect of plant-derived secondary metabolites during the interaction between parasites and vector, or actually on fundamental sand fly digestive physiology. In this paper, we describe the effect of -glycosides and their aglycones on longevity, -glucosidase and trehalase activities in adult activity of these compounds and the effect of mandelonitrile in the reduction of illness of sand flies by or effects of test compounds in enzyme activities For all enzyme activity assays, two types of experiments were performed: experiments, adult insects were collected upon emergence, sorted out by sex and fed on a sucrose 70% (w/v) solution for 2C5 days. For assays, adults were collected and maintained on 70% (w/v) sucrose solution with 0.1% (w/v) test compound for seven days. The negative control was fed on a standard 70% (w/v) sucrose solution. In all groups, insects were dissected by separating the midgut from the rest of the NU7026 distributor body [28]. Tissues were homogenized with a mechanical pellet pestle (Sigma-Aldrich) in 200 mM sodium citrate buffer (pH 6) supplemented with protease inhibitors 20 mM (final concentration in samples) phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), 20 M (final concentration in samples) pepstatin A, and 20 M (final concentration in samples) E-64 (N-[for 5 min at 4 C. Supernatants were collected and named as gut contents or rest of body soluble fraction. Pellets were resuspended in the original volume of fresh sodium Rabbit Polyclonal to RHG12 citrate buffer and named gut tissue or rest of body tissues. In enzyme assays, 10 l of the sample and 10 l of substrate (10 mM trehalose or cellobiose) with or without 0.2% (w/v) test compound (esculin, amygdalin, esculetin or mandelonitrile) in aqueous solution were mixed in either 96-well conical bottom plates or 200 l microtubes. After mixing with substrate, protease inhibitors concentration was reduced to 10 mM and 10 M. Reactions were stopped after different times of incubation at 30 NU7026 distributor C by incubating at 100 C for 3 min [33]. Points were withdrawn at intervals of 15 min for trehalase and 1?h for -glucosidase, with total assay times of 75 min or 4 h, respectively. After interruption, 200 l of TGO reagent (Glucose Colorimetric Assay Kit, ref. K082, Bioclin, Belo Horizonte, Brazil) were added, and the samples were kept at 37 C for 30 min. Absorbance was read at 550 nm in a 96-well plate. This assay was adapted from [23, 34]. One enzyme unit (U) corresponds to the amount of enzyme that hydrolyzes 1 mol of substrate molecules per minute. Assays were performed in conditions where product release was proportional.

The purified protein was desalted and concentrated by a buffer exchange with 25?mTrisCHCl pH 7 in an Amicon Ultra centrifugal filter with a molecular-excess weight cutoff of 10?kDa (Millipore, Billerica, Massachusetts, USA). The concentration of the protein was measured using a Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, Illinois, USA). The protein was stored in aliquots at 193?K; 4C10?mg of purified protein per litre of bacterial tradition was obtained. The integrity and purity of the protein were checked using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis following Laemmlis protocol (Laemmli, 1970 ?). The concentration of acrylamide in the resolving gel was 12.5%(2-(4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid (HEPES)CNaOH pH 6.5 was used. A few grains of solid methylmercury chloride were transferred into the reservoir and combined by pipetting the reservoir up and down; 0.5?l of this modified reservoir was then added to the protein drop and the experiment was re-sealed. Crystals were cryoprotected by sequential soaking in 5, 10, 15 and 20% glycerol in crystallization remedy in the same drop that these were grown in, getting rid of and changing about 80% of the drop quantity at each stage (20C30?s per stage). For the derivative, this process thus successfully involved an instant and most likely incomplete back-soak. Crystals had been after that vitrified by speedy immersion in liquid nitrogen.

Crystals grew as clusters of slim, but sizable, plates that one crystals could possibly be buy Sirolimus separated by cautious manipulation. How big is the scale bar is just about 0.5?mm. The crystals had been fragile and required cautious manipulation during harvesting, derivatization and soaking with cryoprotectant alternative, which could just be effectively performed in the same drop that the crystals acquired grown in. Transfer of a crystal from the drop to some other solution always resulted in noticeable degradation and lack of diffraction properties. Many data pieces were gathered; well harvested crystals generally diffracted to high res, but often demonstrated high mosaicity and/or multiple lattices, producing indexing and/or integration difficult. Nevertheless, we were effective in collecting both an acceptable indigenous and derivative data established from two independent crystals. The very best indigenous crystal diffracted to an answer of at least 1.8?? and belonged to the aspect is still acceptable and the signal-to-noise ratio continues to be relatively high (Desk 1 ?). If the detector had been to have already buy Sirolimus been positioned nearer, useful data to relatively higher resolution may have been attained (Evans & Murshudov, 2013 ?). However, owing to the reduced symmetry and the reduced resulting multiplicity of the info, correlation coefficients between fifty percent data sets cannot end up being calculated. With hindsight, we’d have gathered data corresponding to a complete rotation selection of 360 rather than 180, but indexing of the initial few images recommended a monoclinic primitive lattice rather than a triclinic space group, which the data-collection technique was based.

Surprisingly, these differences diminished by adulthood (PND 181) despite continuous exposure, suggesting that exposure to the environmental chemicals produced a more profound effect on the gut microbiome in adolescents. We also observed a small but consistent reduction in the bodyweight of exposed rats in adolescence, especially with DEP and MPB treatment (ratio at PND 62 in exposed rats.

Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve was significantly higher with additive DWI than standard MR Bardoxolone methyl distributor alone: 0.762 vs 0.953; 0.706 vs 0.950 ( .05) for two readers. Conclusions This study recommended that the addition of axial DWI to regular MR imaging are a good idea to diagnose multiple myeloma from metastasis at 3T. Launch Metastasis and multiple myeloma are normal malignant disease regarding bone marrow. Metastasis is normally many common, and made an appearance in various type of lytic or sclerotic bone lesions. The incidence of multiple myeloma is normally increasing recently [1]. It generally shows up as lytic bone lesion in x-ray and CT Bardoxolone methyl distributor pictures, and its own MR imaging results are categorized into regular, focal, diffuse, and usual salt and pepper design [2C5]. They both present comparable MR imaging manifestation and symptoms such as for example back pain, particularly when relating to the spine [6]. There have been studies using regular MR imaging to CYSLTR2 differentiate both of these diseases relating to the backbone, but there have been some overlaps of MR imaging patterns between multiple myeloma and metastasis [7C8]. Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is a research subject in a variety of field of musculoskeletal imaging. Previous research proved that malignant marrow infiltration displays elevated water content material by destruction of trabecular bone and substitute of marrow unwanted fat, thus elevating obvious diffusion coefficient (ADC) value in accordance with normal history bone marrow [9C11]. Furthermore, DWI represented better transmission to history ratio in detecting malignant bone lesions [12]. There were various research on malignant bone lesions which includes metastasis and multiple myeloma using DWI [10, 11, 13C17]. Bardoxolone methyl distributor However, up to now comparative research between your two groupings are limited inside our knowledge. Hence, we hypothesized that adding axial DWI to regular MR imaging may help differentiate between multiple myeloma and metastasis. The objective of our research was to retrospectively determine the worthiness of adding axial DWI to regular MR imaging to differentiate multiple myeloma from metastasis at 3T. Methods Individual people This retrospective research was accepted by Seoul St. Mary’s medical center institutional review plank and educated consent was waived.

Rahbar may be the person exactly who found that HbA1c is Rahbar may be the person exactly who found that HbA1c is elevated in people who have diabetes. This breakthrough emerged in 1968 and had not been immediately valued broadly, but over another few years HbA1c became arguably the most crucial indicator of blood sugar control, allowing doctor and individual TP-434 enzyme inhibitor to, for the very first time, critically measure the influence of changes in lifestyle and medicine on long-term wellness (Table 1). Table 1 HbA1c: a brief history Open in another window Hemoglobin fever Rahbar was created in 1929 in Tehran the youngest of seven kids. My mother was a teacher at a French school, he says. My father had a small shop selling fabrics, but my mother was the pillar of our house. We were all educated. Rahbar became highly educated indeed, receiving both a medical degree and a doctorate at the University of Tehran. He stayed there for his postdoctoral studies as well. By then, it was the 1960s, and hemoglobin was the rising celebrity of molecular biology. Rahbar started his fellowship in 1962 with plans to study immunoglobulins. However, shortly into his fellowship, he became interested in protein structure and found out hemoglobin was the molecule du jour, he says. Not only was hemoglobin easy to come by (making up 97% of erythrocytes dry weight) but in 1960, it became one of the first proteins to have its structure solved (1). That gave researchers unprecedented insight into the connection between a proteins structure and its own function. Linus Pauling, focusing on the proteins from another position, found that the hemoglobin of individuals with sickle cellular anemia (HbS) was structurally not the same as that of healthful individuals. Sickle cellular anemia became among the first types of a genetic disease, says Anthony Cerami, PhD, who contributed to the advancement of HbA1c as a scientific marker. The discovery of HbS tripped a competition to unearth various other hemoglobin variants. Rahbar caught hemoglobin-variant fever on a trip to Israel early in his postgraduate years. His brother was being treated for blood cancer at an Israeli hospital and, coincidentally, a researcher Rahbar admired, Hermann Lehmann, was visiting from Cambridge and providing a lecture. Rahbar attended the lecture and, afterward, talked with Lehmann, whom invited Rahbar to spend a few summers at Cambridge studying hemoglobin variants. Rahbar eagerly approved and learned he was in a unique position to glean hemoglobins secrets. Lehmann regarded as Iran a perfect place to research hemoglobin variants due to the ethnic populations. As early individual populations approved from china and taiwan to European countries, Rahbar says, some stayed in Iran plus some of these tribes remained distinctive. Lehmann encouraged me to establish a research unit at the University of Tehran. He believed that Iran was the best place to do genetic work. Therefore, based on the suggestions of his mentor, Rahbar returned to Iran to establish such a study plan. Rahbar hoped to discover novel hemoglobin variants concealed in the bloodstream of his compatriots. Gearing up The tool of Rabbit polyclonal to E-cadherin.Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins.They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types.CDH1 is involved in mechanisms regul preference for analyzing hemoglobin variants at that time was electrophoresis. Hemoglobin A may be the most abundant kind of hemoglobin, but there are a huge selection of other styles, says Cerami. Uncovering minimal populations needed separating structurally comparable molecules in one another with electrophoresis. As people created better and better strategies, they found that even healthful people have hemoglobin [subpopulations], says Cerami. In 1963, Graham and Grunbaum (2) introduced a fresh faster electrophoresis technique utilizing a cellulose acetate membrane that drew TP-434 enzyme inhibitor Rahbars attention because he wished to increase his throughput. The more blood he screened, the more fresh variants he could find. On the very day he read about the new technique, Rahbar built an electrophoretic cell that could run eight samples at a time, on a single 5-cm membrane, in just 20 min. Within a few months, Rahbar and his two technicians were studying the blood of Iranians with gusto. At six oclock in the morning, someone would proceed with a motorcycle to pick up 300 small tubes of blood from the [Tehran University Hospitals]. I used to take their discarded bloodstream samples, he recalls. I was screening 300 bloodstream samples a time, and the laboratory was running such as a factory. Another essential to Rahbars speed, he says, was a method he established that simplified the extraction of hemoglobin from blood. They briefly dipped Whatman 3M filtration system paper, trim into tapered strips, into bloodstream samples and allowed the paper to dried out. More than ~30 min, the undesired plasma proteins migrated from the bloodstream cellular material, which stayed on the end of the paper. The researchers then dipped the tip into lysing reagents, freeing the hemoglobin, and applied the sample to the cellulose acetate membrane for electrophoresis. A mysterious band Week after week, Rahbar scanned blood samples for novel hemoglobin variants. The researchers screened the samples under a variety of conditions, altering pH and other variables, to tease out distinct hemoglobin bands. Typically, at pH 8.6, they would see a large hemoglobin A band and a smaller and slower hemoglobin A2 band. Then, Rahbar says, they saw something interesting in the blood of a 67-year-old woman: a blurry band that appeared to travel at the helm of hemoglobin A. I said to myself, What is this? This isnt fitting with any of the known hemoglobins, says Rahbar. He looked at the medical record of the subject, and there on her charts it clearly stated that she had diabetes. That itself did not convince Rahbar or his colleagues that the abnormal band was linked to diabetes; it still could have been a genetic anomaly. However, it did prompt them to look at the blood of 47 additional people with diabetes. I will always remember: It was a weekendFridayand I went [to the laboratory] and screened all of them. They all showed the same hemoglobin, says Rahbar. I known as it the diabetic element of hemoglobin. To raised define the band, Rahbar changed the electrophoresis conditions. By decreasing the pH to 6.2 and switching to an agar gel, this individual could get yourself a sharper diabetes band. He released his outcomes in 1968 (3). That same year, Rahbar found the U.S. He wished to reconfirm his results in a different laboratory, therefore he became a member of forces with Helen Ranney, a respected scientist learning hemoglobin and sickle cellular anemia who offered him usage of bloodstream samples from the neighborhoods encircling Albert Einstein University of Medicine. Once again, they discovered the uncommon hemoglobin in 140 individuals with diabetes, but it addittionally arrived in people without diabetes at regularly lower concentrations (4). From unusual to HbA1c The next phase was to look for the identity of the strange hemoglobin. Rahbar appeared for clues in the chromatography research of Holmquist and Schroeder (5) that discovered that five minimal the different parts of hemoglobin A (HbA1a, HbA1b, HbA1c, HbA1d, and HbA1electronic) are eluted prior to the major part. Rahbar, Blumenfeld, and Ranney found that the electrophoretic flexibility of their diabetic hemoglobin matched that of HbA1c (4). Furthermore, when the experts subjected bloodstream samples from topics with diabetes to Holmquist and Schroeders chromatographic separation, the HbA1c band represented between 7.5 and 10.6% of the full total hemoglobin, while in normal subjects the HbA1c constituted only 4C6%. A 1968 research (6) had established that the framework of HbA1c was hemoglobin and also a hexose molecule, nonetheless it still had not been very clear whether HbA1c amounts tracked with blood sugar. Rahbar came back to Iran and continuing to review the issue, while other experts slowly begun to take a pastime in HbA1c. For the initial 5 to 6 years, no-one believed this is something interesting, says Rahbar. Nonetheless it ended up being important. One reason people didn’t believe HbA1c was a way of measuring diabetic control is basically because most experts thought an enzyme was in charge of attaching glucose to hemoglobin, so HbA1c ought to be independent of blood sugar amounts. They assumed it needed to be an enzyme, Cerami says. They hadnt believed it was nonenzymatic glycation. The erythrocyte is unusual because it does not have a nucleus, so it makes its proteins, including hemoglobin, during development in the bone marrow. Once in the blood, total hemoglobin levels should remain about constant, but Cerami wondered whether HbA1c levels would switch over the life of a cell. Using erythrocytes labeled with radioactive iron to track the cells’ age in mice, Cerami and colleagues found that HbA1c levels increase over the lifetime of a cell. Importantly, HbA1c levels increased 2.8 times faster in diabetic mice than in normal mice (7). Later, Cerami found that HbA1c amounts reflected urine sugar levels in human beings aswell (8), supplying additional evidence that the HbA1c may be a helpful tool for people with diabetes. Over the TP-434 enzyme inhibitor next few decades, the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) (9) and UK Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS) (10) showed that blood glucose control, as assessed using HbA1c, prevented the complications of diabetes. Without HbA1c, this would have been nearly impossible to demonstrate. Still at it During the revolution in Iran, Rahbar was accused of being close to the Shahs family and was fired from his professorship at the University of Tehran. I left everything behind, took my partner and my three daughters, and thank God I found america, recalls Rahbar. I known as Helen Ranney. She was at UCSD. She arrived and fulfilled us and explained, Dont be concerned. Rahbar became a researcher at the town of Wish National INFIRMARY in Duarte, California, where he offers been ever sincefor 33 years right now. Today, he’s a distinguished professor of diabetes, endocrinology, and metabolic process at the guts. Rahbar offers continued to review glycation and discovered that the reaction occurs in many types of biological molecules, including DNA and lipids. Some of his research suggests that glycation is related to the development of diabetes complications. Now, at age 83 years, Rahbar still wakes up every morning at 5:00 a.m. and heads to his laboratory by 5:30 a.m. Its not a job for me; its a passion, he says. In June 2012, Rahbar accepted the Samuel Rahbar Outstanding Discovery Award from the ADA at the 72nd Scientific Sessions, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I was very excited, says Rahbar, mostly because he was honored as his wife, three daughters and their husbands, and eight grandchildren watched from the front row. Once back in California, it was back to work, teasing out the secrets of life and glycation. I know that something great is looking forward to me in my own laboratory, he says. I love every minute of it. Editors’ note We regret to see the readers of this Dr. Samuel Rahbar passed on shortly before this content visited press. He was 83 years older.

Rahbar became extremely educated indeed, getting both a medical level and a doctorate at the University of Tehran. He stayed there for his postdoctoral research aswell. By after that, it had been the 1960s, and hemoglobin was the increasing celebrity of molecular biology. Rahbar began his fellowship in 1962 with programs to review immunoglobulins. Nevertheless, shortly into his fellowship, he became thinking about protein framework and found out hemoglobin was the molecule du jour, he says. Not merely was hemoglobin easy to come across (creating 97% of erythrocytes dry weight) however in 1960, it became among the 1st proteins to possess its framework solved (1). That gave experts unprecedented insight into the connection between a proteins structure and its function. Linus Pauling, working on the protein from another angle, discovered that the hemoglobin of people with sickle cell anemia (HbS) was structurally different from that of healthy individuals. Sickle cell anemia became one of the first examples of a genetic disease, says Anthony Cerami, PhD, who contributed to the development of HbA1c as a clinical marker. The discovery of HbS set off a race to unearth other hemoglobin variants. Rahbar caught hemoglobin-variant fever on a trip to Israel early in his postgraduate years. His brother was being treated for blood cancer at an Israeli hospital and, coincidentally, a researcher Rahbar admired, Hermann Lehmann, was visiting from Cambridge and giving a lecture. Rahbar attended the lecture and, afterward, talked with Lehmann, who invited Rahbar to spend a few summers at Cambridge studying hemoglobin variants. Rahbar eagerly accepted and discovered he was in a distinctive placement to glean hemoglobins secrets. Lehmann regarded Iran a perfect place to research hemoglobin variants due to the ethnic populations. As early individual populations approved from china and taiwan to European countries, Rahbar says, some stayed in Iran plus some of these tribes remained specific. Lehmann motivated me to determine a research device at the University of Tehran. He thought that Iran was where to accomplish genetic work. Hence, predicated on the assistance of his mentor, Rahbar came back to Iran to determine such a study plan. Rahbar hoped to discover novel hemoglobin variants concealed in the blood of his compatriots. Gearing up The tool of choice for analyzing hemoglobin variants at the time was electrophoresis. Hemoglobin A is the most abundant type of hemoglobin, but there are hundreds of other types, says Cerami. Uncovering minimal populations needed separating structurally comparable molecules in one another with electrophoresis. As people created better and better strategies, they found that even healthful people have hemoglobin [subpopulations], says Cerami. In 1963, Graham and Grunbaum (2) presented a fresh faster electrophoresis technique utilizing a cellulose acetate membrane that drew Rahbars interest because he TP-434 enzyme inhibitor wanted to increase his throughput. The more blood he screened, the more fresh variants he could find. On the very day he read about the new technique, Rahbar built an electrophoretic cell that could run eight samples at a time, on a single 5-cm membrane, in just 20 min. Within a few months, Rahbar and his two professionals were studying the blood of Iranians with gusto. At six oclock in the morning, someone would proceed with a motorcycle to pick up 300 small tubes of blood from the [Tehran University Hospitals]. I used to take their discarded blood samples, he recalls. I was screening 300 blood samples a day time,.

MOC activation. However, the difference misses any tonic MOC activation, i.e., MOC activation that begins at the beginning of a block of trials and continues throughout the block during both the pre- and post-trial measurements. If the subjects mental getting ready at the beginning of a task brings about tonic MOC activation (presumably from cortical activation of descending pathways), then when the same sounds are heard without a task (called passive listening), perhaps there is no tonic MOC activation. In passive listening, the difference between OAE measurements before and following the trial noises is certainly from transient MOC activation. If during pre-measurements in passive hearing there is absolutely no tonic activation, after that any OAE distinctions in the pre-trial measurements from energetic in comparison to passive hearing would reveal tonic MOC activation through the active-hearing trials. In order to avoid ramifications of drift and distinctions across measurement PSI-7977 irreversible inhibition periods, interleaving blocks of job and no-job trials within a measurement program is probably required. On the interleaved no-job blocks, the topic must relax rather than attempt discriminations, we.e., not really tonically activate their efferents. An extended training period could be necessary for subjects to attain good efficiency in duties with alternation of MOC activation. Not absolutely all subjects might be able to do this, we.e., to attain efficiency on blocks alternating MOC-on/MOC-away that equals their efficiency when carrying out longer sequences of simply MOC-on or simply MOC-off. One way to reveal tonic MOC activation is always to interleave an activity which has a MOC perceptual advantage and an activity where MOC activation will be detrimental (electronic.g., detecting a tone in noiseless at a regularity definately not spontaneous OAEs (SOAEs)discover Dewey et al., 2014). Ideal performance would need MOC activation in the initial case, and turning-off MOC activation in the next case. Alternating these allows tonic MOC activation to end up being detected by evaluating the pre-trial OAE amounts. Again, an extended training period could be necessary to achieve great performances. Whenever there is certainly long training, presumably there is usually learning involved and this may change the OAE results over time and make it PSI-7977 irreversible inhibition difficult to obtain the stationary periods necessary for good averaging. A powerful but difficult to apply method is the correct/incorrect comparison. In a series of trials using identical stimuli, some subject judgments are correct and some are incorrect. Since the stimuli are the same (with random permutations in PSI-7977 irreversible inhibition presentation order), differences in subject judgments are presumably due to internal variations within the PSI-7977 irreversible inhibition subject (e.g., in subject alertness, MOC activation, etc.). If correct trials, on average, have more MOC activation than incorrect trials, this would be strong evidence that the MOC activation actually produced the perceptual benefit, since all stimulus variables are the same (although correlation doesnt show causation). With this method, transient activation during each trial is usually shown SOX18 by the difference in before-trial to after-trial OAE amplitudes, and variation in tonic activation may be revealed by comparing the pre-trial OAE amplitudes from correct vs. incorrect trials. A variant of this method was used in chinchillas who skipped making a choice on many trials (which is not allowed in the normal human paradigm) with the result that a difference in MOC activation was found between trials when the animal made a choice vs. the skipped trials, but not between correct and incorrect trials (Delano et al., 2007). Statistical assessments Both the pre-to-post trial method and the correct/incorrect comparison method require many trials to achieve adequate signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). The best SNR is usually achieved by computing differences using of the available trials. If the data are broken into N subsets to have N tokens for a statistical test, then each token has poorer SNR than the grand common. One way to keep the highest SNR is to use a bootstrap method. The bootstrap method is described initially with a correct/incorrect comparison. First, OAEs should have passed SNR requirements to.

Background: Breast carcinoma in situ (CIS) is classified into ductal carcinoma Background: Breast carcinoma in situ (CIS) is classified into ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS). needed for the double immunostains. Designs: Twenty-seven blocks of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue from 26 cases of DCIS or LCIS were retrieved from the archives of Houston Methodist Hospital. Four consecutive sections from the same blocks were used for H&E and immunohistochemical (IHC) stains. The E-cadherin antibody was a rabbit polyclonal antibody and the P120 catenin antibody was a mouse monoclonal antibody. The E-cadherin primary antibody was detected using a secondary antibody raised against rabbit antibody and was visualized with a brown color. The P120 catenin primary antibody was detected using a secondary antibody raised CP-673451 tyrosianse inhibitor against mouse antibody and was visualized with a red color. CP-673451 tyrosianse inhibitor Results: Using individual antibodies, 15 of 15 DCIS lesions acquired diffuse circumferential membranous E-cadherin staining (dark brown stain) or P120 catenin staining (crimson stain). All 12 LCIS situations demonstrated cytoplasmic P120 crimson staining or lack of E-cadherin staining when the one P120 catenin or E-cadherin antibody was utilized. When stained using the antibody cocktail, all 15 DCIS examples demonstrated diffuse crimson and brown membranous staining without cytoplasmic stain; all 12 LCIS samples showed diffuse cytoplasmic reddish staining for P120 catenin but no membranous staining for E-cadherin. Conclusions: 1. This antibody cocktail can be applied in daily practice on paraffin-embedded tissue and is especially useful in small biopsies with small foci of CIS lesions. 2. Immunohistochemical staining with the antibody cocktail showed 100% concordance with the traditional single antibody immunostaining using either E-cadherin or P120 catenin antibody. 3. Our antibody cocktail includes E-cadherin as a positive membranous stain CP-673451 tyrosianse inhibitor for DCIS and P120 catenin as a positive cytoplasmic stain for LCIS, which may enhance accuracy and confidence in the differential diagnoses. strong class=”kwd-title” Keywords: DCIS, LCIS, E-cadherin, p120 catenin Introduction Women with breast mammary carcinoma in situ (CIS) are at higher risk for invasive carcinoma [1-3]. CIS CP-673451 tyrosianse inhibitor in general is usually defined as clonal proliferation of epithelial cells without invading through basement membrane into surrounding CP-673451 tyrosianse inhibitor stroma. Breast CIS is usually reported to originate from stem cells in the terminal duct lobular unit (TDLU). Breast CIS includes two main types: ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS). DCIS is composed of monoclonal proliferation of cohesive epithelial cells, which usually cause mammary ductal growth. Even though lesion is called DCIS, it has been shown that this tumor cells originate from TDLU but not from mammary duct [4,5]. The DCIS tumor cells range from low to high grade and are cohesive with preservation of membranous E-cadherin expression [6]. The preservation of E-cadherin is usually thought to be responsible for the cohesive appearance of DCIS. LCIS is usually a monoclonal proliferation of cells with dyscohesive appearance. The LCIS cells are usually standard and discohesive with low nuclear grade and scant cytoplasm; although pleomorphic LCIS can show high nuclear features with abundant cytoplasm [7,8]. Both common and pleomorphic LCIS, lack membranous E-cadherin immuno-positivity. Differentiating LCIS from DCIS is critical in clinical management of the patient. Generally, only E-cadherin immunostain is used to differentiate DCIS from LCIS. A strong diffuse membranous stain supports the diagnosis of DCIS and unfavorable result supports LCIS. Even though characteristics of immunohistochemical (IHC) stain of E-cadherin have been well established, diagnosis based on a single unfavorable stain may not be reliable, especially on small core biopsies. Thus a positive stain for LCIS is usually desired and P120 catenin can serve as such positive stain for LCIS. Recent studies show that P120 catenin is usually a valuable positive stain for LCIS [9-11]. DCIS, when stained with P120 catenin, shows strong membranous stain as E-cadherin, whereas LCIS shows redistribution of P120 catenin from membrane to cytoplasm [9-11]. With the wide use of mammographic screening and other radiographic imaging methods, many breast malignancies are being discovered at an early on stage. These lesions could be little in Rabbit polyclonal to AKR1A1 primary needle biopsies, which will make diagnosis difficult. Although a lot of the situations could be diagnosed by morphology confidently, an excellent proportion of cases could be challenging diagnostically. In those full cases, IHC discolorations may be very useful in coming to the right medical diagnosis. Because of the tiny tissue volume, and smaller sized level of lesions also, the true variety of IHC stains.

NEW: Flooding reported in Pittsburgh, elsewhere in Pennsylvania NEW: Conditions improve at region's airports Winds break Christmas tree near Brooklyn Bridge The weather service confirms an EF-2 tornado damaged homes in Georgia (CNN) -- A strong storm system Wednesday brought rain and winds that shut down the Statue of Liberty and delayed flights for more than four hours at airports in the mid-Atlantic and Northeast. Flight times were almost back to normal by late Wednesday. The wind snapped a large lighted Christmas tree at the South Street Seaport a few blocks from the Brooklyn Bridge, CNN New York affiliate WABC reported. No injuries were reported. The Statue of Liberty was forced to close at 2 p.m. because of inclement weather, the National Park Service said on Twitter. Weather permitting, the venue was expected to reopen Thursday Heavy rain triggered flooding in some Eastern states a day after the system raked the Southeast. "The flooding is getting way worse" near Austin, Pennsylvania, said CNN iReporter Marcia, who asked that only her first name be used. "They are closing down roads. Some people have been evacuated. ... This is worse than the '72 flood, from what I am hearing." Families pick up pieces after storms Tornadoes sweep through Mississippi The storm system brought flooding and snow to areas around Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday, slowing commuters and prompting some schools to open late, according to CNN affiliate WPXI. CNN has confirmed that there is a state of emergency in Butler County, Pennsylvania, until at least Thursday morning because of the flooding due to storms from late Tuesday and Wednesday. During much of the day, ground stops were in effect for New York's John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia airports because of low clouds and heavy rain, according to CNN Meteorologist Sean Morris. Flight delays of more than four hours had been reported at the Newark, New Jersey, airport, and delays of more than an hour were reported at airports in Teterboro, New Jersey, and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. One person was killed and a second injured Wednesday when high winds caused a tree to fall on a car with two people in it in West Milford, New Jersey, according to the National Weather Service in Upton, New York. Tracy Gill, another CNN iReporter, awoke to rising waters in Coudersport, Pennsylvania. Gill estimated the water to be about a foot deep and still rising. "I was unable to leave to pick up my daughter from preschool. The road is pretty much gone," Gill said. On Wednesday, the storm system set its sights on much of the Eastern Seaboard. Severe thunderstorms were possible from the Florida Panhandle north to Maryland, and flash flooding was possible from northern Georgia into Vermont and New Hampshire, according to the National Weather Service. Also Wednesday, the National Weather Service confirmed that it was a tornado -- packing winds of 130 mph -- that tore through suburban Atlanta, Georgia, on Tuesday, damaging more than 50 homes and a business. The structures were damaged in Buford, Georgia, in Gwinnett County, by an EF-2 tornado, said Steve Nelson, science and operations officer for the National Weather Service's forecast office in Peachtree City, Georgia. "It was terrifying at the time," Edwin Pellicia, resident of a hard-hit Buford subdivision, told CNN affiliate WXIA. "Now you're just thankful to be alive. ... Today, you really appreciate the time that you have with family and having your life." At least 56 homes and one business in the area were damaged by the tornado. Twelve of those homes suffered major damage. There were no reported injuries. One person, a 54-year-old man, died in a traffic accident in Gwinnett County on Tuesday while the storms were moving through, according to the county's police department. Strong winds associated with the storm apparently caused a tree to break in half and fall on the his vehicle, officials said in a statement. In Atlanta on Tuesday, the system downed trees and power lines and snarled the afternoon commute, with roads in several areas closed because of flooding. Video showed damaged roofs and trees in northern Gwinnett County, about 35 miles northeast of downtown Atlanta. A tornado warning had not been issued for the neighborhood where the damage occurred. Footage showed one home missing an exterior corner, with siding and insulation strewn about the area. "I was on my way home from work, and the parents were calling us to see if the kids were OK. I knew a tornado hit at Gravel Springs [Road]; I didn't know it was going to be our house," resident Erin Birdsong told affiliate WSB. "I personally ran into the bathroom," resident Ortiz Edwards told affiliate WGCL. "The whole subdivision is devastated." Rescue crews conducted door-to-door searches to make sure everyone in the area was accounted for. Several families had to find a place to stay overnight, according to WGCL. "We've got pillows and tennis shoes, change of clothes. ... Hopefully (we'll) get back here tomorrow and start the cleanup process," resident Ashley Tremblay said. Pellicia said the upcoming holiday season will be more meaningful to him because of the experience. "It's going to look different, but it's going to mean a whole lot more," he told WXIA. In addition, several residents expressed gratitude that no one lost their life, adding that homes can be repaired. Tornadoes during this time of year can be particularly dangerous because they are fast-moving and obscured by rain and darkness, according to Morris. In Mississippi, state authorities dispatched emergency crews Tuesday to survey the damage after an onslaught of severe weather that injured at least 32 people, damaged property in 10 counties and cut power. Four tornadoes classified as EF-2 hit the state, the National Weather Service forecast office in Jackson said Tuesday evening. Two were in Yazoo County, one slammed Starkville, and the fourth touched down in Raleigh. An EF-2 twister (on the Enhanced Fujita Tornado Damage Scale) produces wind gusts, estimated by damage assessments, of 110 to 137 mph, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. In Attala County, storms destroyed nine mobile homes, injured six people and left parts of the area without power, the service said. A tornado touched down in Yazoo County on Monday night, causing damage to a courthouse in downtown Yazoo City and tossing debris in a wide area, according to an emergency management spokesman. The twister touched down about 8:05 p.m., according to the National Weather Service's Jackson office. CNN's Sean Morris contributed to this report.

I., June 1.—The largest locomobile ever seen here made its appearance on Bellevue Avenue to-day in charge of its owner, William K. Vanderbilt, Jr. It is of colossal size and is capable of seating six persons. Mr. Vanderbilt imported the machine from France, and with it came an instructor, who is teaching Mr. Vanderbilt the mysteries of its propulsion. The locomobile is said to have cost $8,000. During the afternoon Mr. Vanderbilt took Arthur T. Kemp out in the new vehicle, which kept up a speed of fifty-five miles for an hour's run. The locomobile runs noiselessly and is propelled by gasoline. Connect with The Crittenden Automotive Library	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2597
__label__wiki	0.955372	0.955372	Caesars Entertainment Ownership Details Caesars Palace Details Caesars Entertainment announces renovation of Reno property MGM Resorts names Halkyard as new CFO Use of foreign labor by slot makers sparks regulation consideration Seduction by room rate Player's points target of thieves, and casino employees Some casino promos not as advertised Best of Liz Benston Vegas room rates to rise from rock bottom Liz Benston Liz Benston Homepage Liz Benston Archives Caesars Upscale Tower Premieres By Liz Benston, Las Vegas Sun LAS VEGAS -- For nearly five years, Caesars Palace has operated amid construction walls inside and out as projects aimed at transforming the tired theme property into a premier, upscale resort took shape. At 5 a.m. this morning, the last of those walls came down as Harrah's Entertainment Inc. opened the Palace's 949-room Augustus hotel tower at the corner of Flamingo Road and Las Vegas Boulevard. The tower, which also includes a 24-hour cafe, two retail stores, a VIP lounge and three wedding chapels to replace a single indoor chapel, caps off a process that began in 2003 when previous owner Caesars Entertainment opened the 4,100-seat Colosseum Theater. Since then the property has added a new convention area, two celebrity-chef restaurants and additional casino space with a bar, retail store and nightclub. A poker room and the addition of other table games are under way in the casino while a hotel spa and Guy Savoy restaurant -- named for a three-star Michelin chef with a namesake eatery in Paris -- will open several months from now in the Augustus tower. Harrah's has hired 600 people to staff the new tower. The rooms are designed to compete with the best suites in Las Vegas rather than just the best Caesars has to offer. It's a bold step for a property whose stature has been undermined by newer resorts such as Bellagio, Venetian, and most recently, Wynn Las Vegas. "I think these will compete very well with the new wave of hotel rooms that have come to Las Vegas," said Gary Selesner, who was recently appointed president of Caesars Palace. "I think the size and spaciousness are very competitive and yet I think that the new, striking, contemporary decor -- the use of a designer ... with a new take on what it is to be Caesars Palace -- gives us a very competitive room product." The $289 million tower gives Caesars about 40 percent more rooms -- a long-needed expansion given Las Vegas' rapid tourism growth in recent years and competition from major resorts with more rooms to offer, Caesars executives have said. The upgrade comes amid continued speculation that Harrah's, which purchased Caesars Entertainment in June, will eventually scale back the high-roller business at its flagship property in favor of middle-income business for which the company is known. Rather than maintaining Caesars' high-roller business, Selesner said the resort's high-end customer base has grown under Harrah's. The company has already begun the process of upgrading existing high-roller suites across the property. Rooms in the Palace Tower, the most recent tower to open before Augustus, also will be upgraded to match the newest basic suites over the next several months, Selesner said. Rooms in the new tower consist of 874 suites from 650 square feet to 760 square feet, 23 suites at 1,060 square feet, six suites at 1,470 square feet and 23 suites at 2,470 square feet. The rooms have an ultramodern look and feature dark woods, cream-colored carpets and eclectic art. There are a few nods to Caesars' Roman-themed past, including silken robes embroidered with busts of Caesar and framed art of Roman statues. All the suites feature plasma screen televisions in bathrooms, bedrooms and sitting rooms. Voice-over-Internet service is available for worldwide phone calls as well as high-speed Internet service. Some of the largest suites overlook the recently built Roman Plaza and outdoor ampitheater, where Caesars has held boxing matches and other sporting events. Others overlook the Garden of the Gods, the name for Caesars' four Roman-style pools. The Augustus Tower lobby will become the resort's main entrance, replacing a small, temporary lobby that has served to check in hordes of visitors since July 2004 while the tower was under construction. The new lobby just about doubles the resort's original entrance area and features giant mosaics on the walls and an oversize marble fountain in the center. The lobby, featuring a VIP valet entrance from Flamingo Road, is designed to create a "sense of arrival" for guests, Selesner said. With the 24-hour cafe and retail store opening into the lobby, the space also was intended to serve as a place for guests to congregate rather than just check in, Caesars spokeswoman Debbie Munch said. Stock analyst Matthew Jacob of Majestic Research said the tower should drive both gambling and hotel revenue because visitors "often gamble where they are staying." In the year following Caesars' previous hotel tower expansion in 1997, gambling volume grew 2 percent from the previous year, Jacob said in a research note to investors last month. Still, the property's share of the Strip gaming market fell after the December 1998 opening of Bellagio, the most expensive and luxurious resort in Las Vegas at the time. Copyright © Las Vegas Sun.

__label__wiki	0.787577	0.787577	Since 1995 - Insightful commentary on the Georgia Bulldogs Hook ’em, MFer Orangebloods.com, the Texas Rivals site, is reporting that the Longhorns will add current Auburn defensive coordinator and former Bulldog player Will Muschamp to Mack Brown’s staff. Three years ago Texas raided Auburn’s defensive coordinator, and Gene Chizik produced a national title defense for them in 2005. If the move pans out, it will add to an offseason of churn on the Auburn staff. Tommy Tuberville has already replaced offensive coordinator Al Borges, but he wasn’t planning on shaking up his aggressive defense. Muschamp had been mentioned in connection with the Arkansas, Southern Miss, and Georgia Tech head coaching vacancies, but a lateral move as defensive coordinator wasn’t expected. Muschamp had said just a week ago that, “I have a 6-year-old and a 2-year-old and a wife that likes living in certain places. Quality of life is very important.” You can’t really compare Austin and Auburn in that respect. As someone with head coaching aspirations, perhaps Muschamp sees Texas as a better stepping stone on a career path that has to settle down soon. Even with his young family, the Texas position would be his fourth job since the 2004 season. From Petrino to Chizik to Borges to Muschamp, Tuberville has made some pretty good hires along the way, and his decision to demote Hugh Nall in favor of Borges in 2004 has been credited with saving Tuberville’s job. Muschamp’s replacement should be no less interesting of a decision. One Response to 'Hook ’em, MFer' Subscribe to comments with RSS Chris Sporting Sometimes a lateral move is not all that bad.

One record-breaking specimen of Paradoxides davidis is 37 centimetres (15 in). It has a semicircular head, free cheeks each ending with a long, narrow, recurved spine, and sickle-shaped eyes, providing almost 360° view, but only in the horizontal plane. Its elongated trunk was composed of 19-21 segments and was adorned with longish, recurved lateral spines. Its pygidium (caudal shield) was comparatively small. Paradoxides is a characteristic Middle Cambrian trilobite of the ‘Atlantic’ (Avalonian) fauna. Avalonian rocks were deposited near a small continent called Avalonia in the Paleozoic Iapetus Ocean. Avalonian beds are now in a narrow strip along the East Coast of North America, and in Europe. The exoskeleton of Paradoxides is large to very large, relatively flat, oval to inverted egg-shaped, and about 1⅓× longer than wide, with the greatest width across the genal spines. The headshield (or cephalon) is close to semicircular with long spines developing from the corners of the cephalon. As usual in trilobites, the dorsal suture runs along the top of the eye. As in all Redlichiina this suture runs from the back of the eye slightly outward to the rear margin of the cephalon (a state called opisthoparian) opposite the base of the pleural spines. From the front of the eye the suture describes a slight S-curve forward cutting the front margin in front of the eye. The central raised area of the cephalon (or glabella) is divided in the occipital ring furthest to the back, followed by the first lobe that is like the occipital ring defined by a furrow across the midline and two more lobes that have furrows that do not connect across the midline. The frontal lobe is the widest and shaped like a segment of a circular band. It almost reaches the frontal edge of the cephalon. The eyelobe is short, opposite the first to third glabelar lobes. Paradoxides has a palate (or hypostome) with its front aligned with the front of the glabella and connected to the doublure (a condition science calls conterminant). Exceptionally, the hypostome is even fused with the frontal part of the doublure (called rostral plate), a character that distinguishes it from all other trilobites, except some Cambrian Corynexochida such as Oryctocephalus, and Fieldaspis.

Credit: Washington State University The articulate midpart of the exoskeleton (or thorax) consists of 19-21 segments. The axis is about as wide as each of the ribs (or pleurae) to its sides, not counting the spines at their tips, which gradually arch further back while slightly increasing in length, while the spines on the rear thorax segment are much longer, about twice as long as the associated pleurae, are directly entirely backwards, and extend convincingly beyond the pygidium. The tailshield (or pygidium) is small and shows the axis with one or two rings and may be partially or completely fused to the last thoracic segment. The axis does not reach the rear margin of the pygidium and defines a U-shaped pleural field. Ontogeny The larval development (or ontogeny) of Paradoxides was already described by Barrande (in 1852). The earliest stage (or protaspis) is a disc with three pairs of spines on the margin. Genal spines are placed at halflength directed at about 45° outward and backward, curving slightly further backwards and almost ⅓ of the diameter of the protaspis long. Sharply pointed intergenal spines about 50% of the disc diameter long, are positioned at the back of the future cephalon, are straight and pointing backwards and 15° outward. These spines will have disappeared in adult specimens. The first of future thoracic spines are placed immediately next to the intergenal spines and curve to a parallel with the midline. The front of the glabella almost reaches the front and consists of four sets of lobes divided by a furrow on the midline in the frontal ⅔, and furrows between them. The most backward set consisting of two central and two lateral lobes. Further backwards is the final element of the glabella, one central occipital lobe that carries a small node, and two lateral occipital lobes. The axis is terminated with three rings of somewhat decreasing width. Midlength of the side of the most glabellar lobes run semicircular eyelobes parallel to the margin of the exoskeleton, ending near the base of the intergenal spine. Recommended For You Ancient, scary and alien-looking specimen forms a rarity in the insect world -- a new order Like in many early trilobites, the thorax of Paradoxides consists of so-called nonfulcrate segments, that allow for rolling like a pancake, providing protection from front, rear, top and bottom, while leaving access to the soft ventral side of the animal from each of the sides. Trilobite (Paradoxides sp.). Acadoparadoxides, possibly A. briareus, a large trilobite from about 500 million years ago from Morocco, North Africa (Middle Cambrian). Credit : Mike Peel Complete specimens of Paradoxides have been found with the free cheeks (or librigenae) and the fused palate (hypostome) and lip (or rostral plate) upside down and front to back beneath the remainder of the exoskeleton (consisting of the so-called cranidium, thorax and pygidium). This suggests that in moulting the body was arched above substrate, with the anterior border at the front and pleural spines of rear thoracic segments dug into sediment. Stretching the body would then result in rupturing the sutures in the cephalon and flipping of the librigenae plus hypostome-rostral plate. After these parts had broken away the animal would exit moving forward from its old exoskeleton, that would also have consisted of a chitinous ventral part, including that of the legs. Specimens of Paradoxides have been found containing intact Peronopsis trilobites between glabella and hypostome and where the gut would have been and it is assumed these were not food items of the large trilobite but instead either scavenged on its digestive track, or found shelter.

Below is a map of Uintah Valley Reservation and links to google earth photos of Fort Duchesne. Few people know about Confederated Ute Reservation, especially it's location (supposedly nearly all of western Colorado yet probably most of east Utah) and that Hopi Reservation was a land addition to Confederated Ute Reservation. Uintah Valley Reservation was actually created on October 3, 1861. What transpired in 1868, was a vast land addition to Uintah Valley Reservation. They eradicated Confederated Ute Reservation in 1878. Not all of Confederated Ute Reservation however. They left a large area of worthless land where Uncompahgre Reservation was. They made that official on January 5, 1882. Then just 15 years later, American leaders used infidelity and opened up Uncompahgre Reservation on June 7, 1897. President Roosevelt's Proclamations of July 14, 1905 are not to be trusted. They are usually misconstrued. Uintah Valley Reservation was supposedly opened to white settlement. An area of land covering 1,004,285 acres was declared Surplus Land and opened. Land for townsites covering 2,100 acres was set aside. And 2,140 acres was set aside for mining claims. However, their deceit is the 1,010,000 acres set aside to be a National Forest or Protected Land. That 1,010,000 acres yet belongs to Uintah Valley Reservation. There are two parties involved and we don't have the Ute account of what transpired on July 14, 1905. At issue is 1,010,000 acres! Ute leaders were definitely very content to have most of their Reservation protected. Their productive land is located at Uintah Valley Reservations east, where Utes were allotted land. They have several communities in that location including Fort Duchesne, Ouray (it has yet to be developed), Randlett and Whiterocks. Near Fort Duchesne are possibly 2 or more communities yet they are considered a part of Fort Duchesne. Land act of May 27, 1902 allotted 99,407 acres to 1,284 Ute citizens of Uintah Valley Reservation. It was obviously located at Uintah Valley Reservations east portion. Land under reclamation was 60,160 acres. What was left was 179,194.65 acres. These land dealings happened in 1902 and 1905. No land was declared Surplus Land on May 27, 1902. However, on July 14, 1905 they declared 1,004,285 acres Surplus Land and opened it to white settlement. It's the 1,010,000 acres that yet belongs to Uintah Valley Reservation. After these land dealings, Uintah Valley Reservation was left with 1,348,761.65 acres. The 1,010,000 acres is Protected Uintah Valley Reservation land. Many of the Ute land allotments were sold to whites. However, Uintah Valley Reservation was not eradicated! Uintah Valley Reservations Government has jurisdiction or owns those land allotments. Be them "Trust Land Allotments or Fee Land Allotments." Difference between "Trust Land Allotments and Fee Land Allotments" is taxes. Owners of "Trust Land Allotments" don't have to pay taxes. Owners of "Fee Land Allotments" are subject to City, County, State and Federal taxes. Fort Duchesne Road View Demographics of Uintah Valley Reservation Land Area: 2,107.4 sq. mi. or 5,458.2 sq. km.

Well in truth, I generally don’t stop reading fan fiction. I probably read two stories a day, plus some original stuff from Fiction Press, and serials from my peeps at The Pen and Cape Society, Flicker, and Hero Historia. (Dude… I have peeps now. Remember like a year and a half ago when I was lamenting how little webserial folks communicate?). Point is, I read a lot. That’s part of the job of an author. In fact, if I make enough this year, I’m deducting the cost of every book I read as ‘research material’ because that’s exactly what it is. What I mean when I say ‘I’ve been reading fan fiction again’ is that I’ve been reading it with a mind toward my brand of ‘what works?’ critique. That also means, I haven’t been filtering stories so I stop reading a story if it’s not good. Note that I didn’t say ‘bad’, just ‘not good’. I typically click on the obviously bad stuff, and believe it or not, you can tell from the outset when most fan fictions will be bad because the story summaries will be very, very stupid if not offensive (like the first sentence telling you that a beloved character of a children’s cartoon has been the victim of sexual violence—which of course is the catalyst for romance.) As such, I’ve been noticing patterns of behavior in a lot of the writers I normally would have skipped that either stood between their story being ‘readable’ instead of decent, or ‘decent’ instead of ‘good’. Some of it is personal and specific to me (I cannot abide this first person present tense bullshit), but there are some I’m confident in adding to a list of things writers do that make their stories less effective. Before we begin, please note that I’m not picking on fan fic writers here. I’ve seen this kind of thing everywhere, but by dint of being freely available in easily comparable to other better works about the same characters and settings, it’s just easier to isolate the problem when dealing with fan fiction. Hell, I’ll give you a list of fics I really like at the end of this thing, for your reading pleasure—some of which still manage to do some of these things, but make up for it by being awesome. Weakening Language ‘Rather’, ‘really’, ‘pretty’, ‘very’. It’s probably because little kids use three of these overly enthusiastically, and British humor uses the other to intentionally blunt the impact of words, but often when a writer uses these words in conjunction with another word, they rob is entirely of its impact. I ran across this one as a verbal tic across five different writers in three different fandoms where they would constantly describe things as ‘rather large’. Now, when I was a lad (lads being people who wear flat caps and aren’t old men), large wasn’t really large. From popcorn to soft drinks, the sizes were child, small, large and something-rarely-called-extra-large. Usually it was ‘super/king/jumbo-sized’ and it was only a quarter more so you would be a fool—A FOOL—not to pay that quarter. So in my mind, and probably the minds of a lot of people in my generation, ‘large’ is already weaksauce in terms of jumbosity to start with. Adding rather is just a finishing move to kill it once and for all. ‘Rather large’ is one of those dry British humor deals where you really mean ‘a bit bigger than normal, purely for effect. But over and over, I keep seeing it being used to try and emphasize the bigtitude of a thing. Usually it’s a room. Characters find themselves in ‘rather large’ warehouses and chambers and things. Just as usually, the hugeiness of the thing is completely beside the point and so the ‘rather large’ thing sticks out… rather explicitly. I suspect a lot of these writers are fans of writers who do use the dry wit version (Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, even Neil Gaiman) and don’t realize that the ‘rather’ language is part of the witiness. I’m less sure of why I always see ‘pretty big’ and ‘very pretty’ so often. Especially ‘pretty’. ‘Pretty’ in this case is something you use when aren’t really sure how big something ought to be. How big are those potatoes? ‘I dunno… pretty big’. It’s indecisive, which is find if you’re trying to convey that, but when you’re saying the dragon swooping down on your heroes is ‘pretty big’… no. ‘Pretty’ should probably one of those things mostly relegated to in-character speech and not in the narration because the narrators shouldn’t be indecisive most of the time. Very is… boring. Like super-boring. Same with ‘really’ to be honest. It’s fine once in a while, but it’s just a bit of filler when you get right down to it. How big is something big compared to something very big? Just in general, it’s better to break out the metaphor and similes when you’re trying to sell a description of something rather (heh) than try and say it was ‘really’ or ‘very’ whatever. Of course, then you have to ones that don’t shut up at all, leading to… Zero Conservation No, I’m not talking about the GOP’s environmental policy. Conservation of Detail is a principle that suggests that only things that serve some aspect of the story will be detailed in the story. Everything else can safely be glossed over. Some writers have never heard of this and feel that when a character goes from Point A to Point B, the readers need to hear every little step in between no matter how tedious. Here’s a real experience I had while browsing some fiction about one of my favorite characters. The description involved the character (Col. Jack O’neil of Stargate SG-1) getting stunted to the wrong world, meeting an alt version of himself, then embarking on a cosmic road trip to get home. I don’t know about you, but that sounds awesome, so I clicked it so hard I needed a new mouse. …Which is where it all went to hell. The fic opened with O’neil waking up at home and getting ready to go to Stargate Command to work. Never in ten goddamn years of SG-1 did we ever open with someone getting ready for work. There is a reason for this. But no, we learn that Jack eats a grapefruit every morning (nitpick: we have seen him eating breakfast at the SGC and it’s always sugar cereal), apparently showers but doesn’t need to go to the bathroom, and that he has to call and wait for a taxi to the secret government facility he works for. Ignoring that massive collapse in logic… that was it. That was chapter 1. Two thousand words of morning routine for nothing. Spoilers: Chapter 2 has an exciting elevator ride alone, getting dressed in the locker room, and small talk with T’ealc, the big, awesome alien dude of the series. At least that was funny and unfortunately enough to trick me into continuing to chapter 3, which includes a mission briefing sequence. You notice how nothing has happened yet? Because I did and at this point, I looked ahead to find that Jack is not separated from the others or on a righteous road trip through the stars with himself by CHAPTER 8!!!!. No, we were still going through the motions because the writer forgot that they could literally just skip all the useless stuff. Let’s just assume that the talk with T’ealc and the briefing were important (and the talk was funny enough to preserve)… why not start with the talk and then cut to the briefing? Why did you have to actually read about Jack walking tot he briefing room during which nothing important happened? Writers and fans among you, allow me to introduce you to the single most important string of characters you will ever meet: ^ That right there translates to ‘and then stuff you don’t have to care happened. If something was important there, I will inform you later at a more interesting time for it’. It is time travel. It lets you fast-forward through all the crap that is neither fun to read or to write. Long walks, days of waiting, and even those annoying ‘character wakes up and preforms a pointlessly mundane morning routine’ scenes can be replaced by those three little stars. Learn them. Use Them. As an aside, I was going to post a youtube of an R&B song where the female singer waxes poetical about how she woke up and had a piece of toast and two eggs in this section, but I cannot for th elife of me find the name of the song. If you remember that song (From 2000-2002), please let me know. Anyway, sometimes the power of the asterisk goes too far and the writer uses it to skip things they don’t care about that the audience kind of needs to proceed. Over-gloss I don’t even know the real term for this because I’ve never actually hear anyone talk about this. Maybe I’m a trailblazer? I doubt it. To put this in perspective, let me explain how this concept should be used: Let’s say you have a series of events happen in your story and that needs to be told to one character by another. Because the readers have already been through this part, it’s completely fair play to say: ‘Then Bill told Amy what happened’. And be done with it. Over-gloss happens when the writer can’t seem to stop glossing over details and the above becomes, “Then Bill told Amy what happened and they decided to catch the fake ghost with a net, so they bought a net and set it up in an old barn.’. Some would call this a case of ‘show don’t tell’, but the ‘telling’ part where we gloss over the redundant info dump is completely necessary. This is more like ‘know what to show and what to tell’. In this case, the new information: the making of the decision, the plan and the set-up are all new information that the audience needs to hear more about than one or two sentences. Even if things like the set-up are condensed, it still requires more meat to the narrative for the sake of the story’s flow. When I happen upon this, it’s usually a case of the classic ‘rushed ending’. That’s one of those things I never see discussed aside from ‘don’t do that’, but it comes down to a story where the author, either fatigued or short on time, starts omitting or foreshortening chunks of story they feel are less important, reducing the last bit (usually the last bit) to bullet points. I may do a blog post on pacing at some point to discuss this in more detail, but I have a segue now and I’m going to use it: This glossing over style also shows up when a writer makes a similar mistake in attitude rather than style: Writing Sequences You Obviously Hate Okay, here’s the thing. I get that some writers aren’t writing what they actually care about. Chasing popular genres in order to shake some of that sweet, sweet cash out of readers is a thing. Money is a strong motivator, and while I will certainly crack on the profit motive all the live-long day, that’s neither here nor there when we’re talking fan fiction. Fan fiction, with one notable example is not something you get paid for. You might even get sued for it if the author has an unhealthy enough attitude about it. There is no reason to write a fan fiction you hate. That’s like the opposite of what fandom and fan ficiton should be. There are a lot of reasons someone enjoys a form of entertainment. Even in a fairly straight-forward show like Leverage, where the premise is heists, one can certainly watch the show for the interplay between the characters, or the interesting real-life crime both sides of the pro-antagonist line use. And there are fics out there that are very good without any heists at all, or without any of the interplay at all. That’s cool. Where we have a problem is when a writer decides to force themselves to write an element they dislike. Typically, this comes in the form of a shipper, who really wants to write a love story, choosing to cleave to a show’s original flavor by writing action scenes they have little to no interest in. Note that I’m not saying all shippers hate action. I’m a shipper who loves action, so there. Anyway, the weird thing here is that I hang out on author boards and there’s this pervasive idea that if you’re a good enough writer, you can fake enthusiasm. You cannot. I can smell a scene someone was forced to write from a mile away and I’m sure you can too. I’m sure those writers who are sure they can get away with heartless action, joyless sex and witless crime scenes can too, the yjust don’t want to admit that they aren’t omni-talented—or tat writing is a singular talent. And that’s simply not true. I will admit that I’m not a master of descriptions, transitions or romance (as much as I want to be the former). I feel I’m pretty good with dialog and action. I’m also not enthusiastic about sex scenes or darker fare. So I do my best to get better at what I’m not good at, and work around what I don’t want to be good at. Meanwhile, you get these forced scenes that are clearly being done under protest of someone who didn’t have to do them and… there’s no energy. Everything happens one after another to the point that it could be reflected in a single run-on sentence. Look, I understand wanting to stick to original flavor, but unless you really are chasing money, a writer should never put something on the page they don’t want there. It’s much better for everyone if you just tell the story you want to tell because you’re flat-out going to do a better job of it if you’re happy writing it. Speaking of how fight scenes can fail though… ‘And Then’ Syndrome As I’ve said, I feel that I’m pretty good at writing action. At least I’ve had multiple readers tell me this, so I’m going to take the damn complement. I credit reading a lot of good Fantasy action for teaching me the enlightened path of action writing. I can only blame J- and tabletop RPGs for ‘And Then’ Syndrome. For those of you unfamiliar with either (and this wouldn’t be the first time I was shocked by my demographics), both types of games usually use something called turn based combat. That means that instead of everything happening at once, all combatants in a given fight take turns performing their actions. Blocks and guards are usually left up to chance or pre-selected for a given turn. This system is great for promoting strategic thinking and almost necessary when the game has given you fifty spells and items to juggle. I actually like turn-based games more than real-time combat. For. Games. When it comes to stories, not so much. And that’s what ‘And Then’ Syndrome is: the writer describing combat as a linear path with everyone taking turns. Nothing happens simultaneously, no one rapidly attacks and overwhelms anyone—nope, everyone seems to wait around and take turns punching one nother or what have you. You can bet money on many, many sentences starting with ‘and then…’. I don’t get this. When you watch a show with action, it never plays out like that even when we’re cutting around giving each main character a chance to look awesome. People get knocked into one another, faster enemies hit slower ones in succession… PEOPLE BLOCK. Holy crap, I’ve read so many ‘action’ scenes where they’re literally just trading hits. No dodging, not countering, and absolutely never any blocking. There’s only one remedy for this: read and watch more action. Watch Roadhouse on Netflix or something. Hell, play a game of Mortal Combat and you’ll get better grounding in combat flow than ‘and then’. But, you know, above all, read. Read everything you can get your hands on and not just the perfect stuff. Figure out why you like some things and not others. Believe it or not most people know a decent story from a mediocre one, it’s just when tropes you want to read about, concepts you like and other things come into play that you have people flocking to obviously bad fare like Transformers. I’ve never heard anyone say that was a fine film, just that they had fun watching it, which is different from being good. That’s fine. Unfortunate, but fine. Except my friend who likes Godzilla ’98 un-ironically. She is an eternal shame to our entire generation. And now, a quick list of really good fan fics (not perfect ones—there is nothing perfect under the sun) that I can recommend—because that’s a thing people ask me now. The Dragon King’s Temple (Avatar:TLA / Stargate SG-1 X-over) Plot: Zuko and Toph wind up prisoners on a goauld ship along with Sam Carter and Dr. Fraiser. They have no idea how they got there and the SGC has no idea what ‘bending’ is—but they’re about to find out. Vaal Says: This is a weird but fun crossover that marries the complex and compelling mythos of the two shows into a cohesive and satisfying whole. You don’t need to know either show to enjoy this, but it adds another dimension to both and fits rather well into the canon of both. Girl Talk (X-men Evolution) Plot: Deadpool takes a diner hostage because… Deadpool. A succession of x-men badasses come to put an end to that nonsense and end up gabbing and gossiping instead. Vaal Says: Deadpool fics often struggle to make such a funny character funny. This one succeeds in spades. Bonus points for some really fun in-character beats. Oddly enough, this is more like a general X-men comic fic and has little to do with Evolution. The Thimble Ninja (Young Justice) Plot: An interesting take on the Artemis/Wally relationship from YJ, going from pigtail-pulling annoyance to familiarity to love. Vaal Says: A well-paced love story that doesn’t forget these are two teen superheroes. I didn’t like this pairing until I read this. Tiger By the Tail (Kim Possible / Calvin & Hobbes X-over) Plot: Kim Possible has faced the worst that evil has to offer. Now she faces her most dangerous mission: babysitting Calvin. Vaal Says: My god. Action Heroine trying to babysit Calvin, the king of chaotic kids. A brilliantly written, eternally fun story for people who loved C&H. All Things Probable (Kim Possible) Plot: Kim and Ron may well have met their matches in the form of oddly inverted versions of themselves. Vaal Says: This could have been terrible. A pair of Ocs who are equal and opposite to the heroes and just as competent scream ‘Mary Sue’, but what we get in this fic is nothing short of amazing. It also kicks off ne of my favorite series of fan fiction ever. Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality (Harry Potter) Plot: What if Harry had been raised by a strictly rational scientist and then dumped into the world of insane magic that is Hogwarts? Vaal Says: I only just started this, but it is hilarious if you’re a lover of SCIENCE! like I am. I’m not even especially a fan of Harry Potter beyond having enjoyed most of the movies, but this fic is solid gold in terms of how fun it is. Fair Warning: I haven’t finished this (100+ chapter!) fic, so I don’t know if it stays this good throughout. « Rune Breaker: Chapter 58 – Last Line of Defense Issue #84 – Darkness Falling » rocjawcypher On HPMOR, I loved it just as much as you did. However, towards then end, it started to make me slightly uncomfortable as Harry started feeling a little preachy on the Atheistic side. I’m not super religious, and having it pushed on me is super uncomfortable, but having the main character call people idiots for believing in souls and an afterlife and what not just lowered my enthusiasm for the story just as much. Huh. I’m not sure I’ll have that much of a problem with it as even at chapter 18, I’m already learning to take what Harry thinks with a grains of salt. He’s arrogant as hell and keeps paying for it. Considering how so much of his other instances of credulity have bitten him in the ass, I should hope that this turns out like the Time Turner: he learns he went way, WAY too far and has to rethink. I’m not religious at all, but even I feel the need to slap people who preach atheism. That’s like the opposite of the point of being an atheist. bigjeff5 I’ve read everything Elizer has released so far, and my biggest issue with hpmor is it has a serious power creep problem. It is kind of out of control. Harry isn’t just a very rational young boy in this story, he’s an almost infallibly rational magical super genius. I’m going to finish it when the rest is released, but I’m not nearly as enamored of it as I was the first 20 chapters or so. Also, you should check out the Twilight fan fic he recommends. It’s amazing. It also has a bit of a power creep problem, but it isn’t as bad IMO.I haven’t read Twilight so I don’t know how much of that is the writer’s doing. Mazzon I keep finding it odd how you talk about fan fiction without even mentioning gay porn. Or any kind of porn even. Or weird stuff like wingfics. In this, I am unique on the internet. Also, there’s significantly less gay porn than you would expect. I don’t know, maybe the times have changed. Haven’t read fanfics since the early 00s, but back then it seemed fairly prevalent. Which isn’t quite why I stopped reading fanfics. It was the realization that the best fanfic I’d ever read was gay porn (Batman/Wally West), and when porn has better writing than non-porn there’s something wrong with the world. Couldn’t deal with that. Don’t get me wrong, there’s some truly amazing porn out there, but that’s not the main thrust (heh) of what I read. Hell, FF.net kicked out all the NC-17 stuff.	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2624
__label__wiki	0.884742	0.884742	NHL: Leafs win home finale 3-2 over Lightning in overtime Special By Aman Dhanoa Apr 6, 2012 in Sports Toronto - On a day the Toronto Blue Jays kicked off its 2012 season in Cleveland, the Toronto Maple Leafs were getting ready for its home finale against the Tampa Bay Lightning. What’s the connection you ask? Well if you recall it just a week ago when disappointed Toronto Maple Leafs fans chanted “Let’s go Blue Jays!” during an embarrassing 7-1 blow out loss at the hands of the Philadelphia Flyers. Sports fans in Toronto were clearly excited about the Jays but were also all too eager to forget the colossal collapse that saw the Leafs miss the playoffs for the seventh straight season. The Leafs were at least able to treat their fans to not only an exciting last home game of the season, but also a come from behind 3-2 win in overtime. Captain Dion Phaneuf played the role of hero by putting a rebound off the boards past a fallen Dwayne Roloson with just 59 seconds left in the extra frame. With the win the Leafs swept the season series winning all four games against the Lightning. “We talked about winning tonight at home in front of our fans to finish off the season on a winning note at home,” said Phaneuf of just the team’s second win at the ACC in two months. “We’ve talked a lot about the past and what happened but all of our focus was on tonight and winning tonight’s game in front of our home fans.” Chasing 60 Steven Stamkos. bridgetds Although Thursday’s game had no impact in the standings there was an air of excitement surrounding Lightning sniper Steven Stamkos’ quest for 60 goals. The Markham, Ont native had numerous chances in his home town but had to settle for just one and is now at a league-leading 59 markers. Stamkos will have one more chance to become just the second player in 15 years to score 60 goals when the Lightning finish the season in Winnipeg. “I’ve been getting asked about it a lot so it’s tough not to think about it but it was definitely nice to get one here tonight,” said Stamkos on scoring a goal in front of a hometown crowd. “Any time you come play back in your home city it’s always fun. You always get up for that game and always have a lot of family and friends in the stands. I had my chances tonight but it was one of those nights where I didn’t think one was going to go in but it was nice to get one.” The Leafs knew that the Lightning would make it a point to help Stamkos reach his milestone, especially in Toronto. So the game plan was simple – shut down Stamkos. “You knew coming into the game that they were going to move the puck to him as much as possible," said Phaneuf. "He’s had an unbelievable year. He can score goals from anywhere and that’s what makes him so dangerous, but he’s a tough guy to shutdown.” “It was definitely our goal to shut him down and keep him off the score sheet but he got one that we would have liked back but overall I think we did a pretty good job against a very, very skilled player.” Added Leafs coach Randy Carlyle, “We know what kind of player he his and the puck follows him around but you can see definitely that their hockey club is trying to push the puck in his direction and we were fortunate I think tonight to only hold him to one. He had lots of chances but Ben Scrivens did a pretty good job in the nets.” And none of the Leafs wanted to have the distinction of being the team that Stamkos scored his 60th on, especially Scrivens. “Yeah, I just didn’t want to give up 60, you know be on the highlights all summer,” laughed Scrivens who made 35 saves for his fourth win of the season. “He’s a good player, he’s got a great release. I got lucky to get a shoulder and I think he got my ribs on a couple of them in the second so there’s a reason why he’s got 59 and there’s a reason why he’ll probably get 60. I’m just happy that 60 wasn’t against me.” The Lightning opened the scoring early in the first when a Brian Lee pass deflected off Martin St. Louis’ skate and past Leafs goaltender Ben Scrivens. Toronto tied it up just 43 seconds later when Jake Gardiner took a between the legs drop pass from David Steckl and found an open Tim Connolly for an easy tap in. The Lightning pressured the Leafs for most of the second period by firing 17 shots at Scrivens but were not rewarded with a goal. Tampa Bay was finally able to take the lead in the third period. With all the attention the Leafs were supposed to be paying on Stamkos, he managed to sneak in behind the defence and was alone at the side of the net. Taking a pass from Bruno Gervais he beat a helpless Scrivens to make it 2-1. The Leafs pulled even late in the third period on a great individual rush by Gardiner but he got lucky when his backhand pass was tipped in by Lightning winger Brett Connolly. Phil Kessel had a great game for the Leafs and had several chances throughout the game but simply could not finish. He combined with Phaneuf on a give-and-go on the winning goal with Kessel firing just wide, but the puck bounced off the back boards right to the captain who fired it over Roloson. Both Gardiner and St. Louis finished with a goal and an assist and were named the game’s second and third stars respectively while Phaneuf was named the first star. The Leafs will conclude its 2011-12 season on the road against the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday night at 7 p.m. ET.

A used 1948 stamp of the Gold Coast, postmarked Accra 1951 A 1959 stamp of Ghana showing Diamond mining This is a survey of the postage stamps and postal history of Ghana, known as the Gold Coast before independence. Ghana is located in West Africa, borders Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast) to the west, Burkina Faso to the north, Togo to the east and the Gulf of Guinea to the south. 1 Pre-stamp era 3 First stamps 4 World War Two 5 Allied occupation of Togo 6 Independence Pre-stamp era The Gold Coast gradually came under British control by the middle of the nineteenth century and it was administered by Sierra Leone, further along the coast, until Gold Coast became a Crown Colony in 1874. Mails travelled via Freetown at this time.[1] A postal service was established at Cape Coast Castle in 1853. The settlement at Lagos on the coast of Southern Nigeria was under Gold Coast control between July 1874 and 13 January 1886 when it became a separate colony. It had previously been under Sierra Leone.[1][2] First stamps The first stamps of the Gold Coast were stamps of Queen Victoria issued 1 July 1875[2] and Gold Coast joined the Universal Postal Union in January 1879.[1] During World War Two, Gold Coast issued 1d and 6d war savings stamps. The stamps were registered in 1943 and copies exist in the Crown Agents Archives in the British Library Philatelic Collections.[3] Allied occupation of Togo In August 1914, Togo was invaded by British troops from Gold Coast and French troops from Dahomey who occupied the country until 1919. Overprinted stamps of Gold Coast were used and in 1922 the British occupied zone of Togo was added to Gold Coast.[4] The first stamps of independent Ghana were issued in March 1957[1] and consisted of a commemorative stamp set of four and a definitive stamp series of 12 formed by overprinting former Gold Coast stamps with the words GHANA INDEPENDENCE 6th MARCH 1957.[2] Regular issues have followed, including a number of sets of postage due stamps. Ghanaian stamps after independence were noted for their bold colours and the frequent incorporation of the Ghanaian flag in their design. Ghana was the first country client of the Inter-Governmental Philatelic Corporation,[5] however, inept handling of the early post-independence issues caused damage to Ghana's reputation in the philatelic world from which it has not yet recovered.

Re: it's official - FCP7 won't launch in High Sierra August 23, 2017 07:27PM Admin End of an era. On to Vegas Pro! dcouzin August 24, 2017 01:32PM Registered: 13 years ago The Apple announcement at Nick's link doesn't quite imply that FCP7 won't launch in High Sierra.* Some brave soul can install the High Sierra beta and see if FCP7 can be installed and then run. (Brave because High Sierra brings a new file system, and I wouldn't put it past Apple to change, perhaps irreversibly, more than the volume on which you install High Sierra.) Anyhow, if FCP7 is incompatible with High Sierra, that itself doesn't make FCP7 obsolete. I hold the minority view that FCP7 doesn't work perfectly on any OSX beyond Lion (10.7.5). Please read [www.lafcpug.org], and what it links to. This was my experience on my hardware. ("Work perfectly" means as perfectly as FCP7 can work.) There are problems accompanying running FCP7 on the old operating system (10.7.5). There are obvious problems with communications. There aren't up-to-date browsers, required by many websites, that run on the old system. Other software and hardware I wish to interface with FCP7 doesn't run on the old system. When it's time to replace my computer, the new one probably won't run the old operating system. In this way FCP7 is bonded to my mid-2012 Mac Pro. And the computer is bonded to the monitor via the color calibration software (which is so funky that I dare not update it), an ecosystem that is not forever. The above describes accidental obsolescence. FCP7 faces essential obsolescence when it can't edit what or how it needs to edit. This depends, respectively, on how video technology and video editing style evolve. We will each see this differently.

__label__cc	0.667799	0.332201	Top 10 abortion stories of 2008 Operation Rescue has posted its top 10 abortion stories of 2008. All are good, but one caught my eye that I’d wanted to report at the time but couldn’t get to, OR’s #8: Late abortions in KS decrease by 54% since Operation Rescue’s arrival Statistics for 2007, released by the KS Dept. of Health and Environment this year, show that since Operation Rescue relocated to KS in 2002, late-term post-viability abortions have dropped an amazing 54%. That includes a 28% decrease in 2007, a year in which OR hosted three major prayer events, and continued to expose Tiller wrong-doing. A most interesting statistic to me was that late-term abortions dropped 23% in KS from 2006 to 2007, indicating Tiller is being much more cautious about committing late-term abortions with OR dogging him and the ongoing investigations that were launched 5 years ago by Phill Kline…. Many may not know that Troy Newman and OR relocated their headquarters and families to KS specifically to put Tiller out of business. What do you think was the top abortion story of 2008? I think the barrage of expos�s against Planned Parenthood for underage rape cover-up may be it. And perhaps because I was so involved in it, I think the exposure of the induced labor abortion issue and post-abortion infanticide was another top story, courtesy of the Barack Obama campaign. He may have won the presidency, but I think public awareness of the depravity of abortion increased and hopefully distaste of abortion along with it.

LizFromNebraska I bet that woman wasn’t suffering from some “irreversible body disfunction” as they claim is an excuse for a LATE TERM ABORTION. xppc I vote for the exposure of PEBO as incredibly devoted to abortion and including the non protection of babies born alive is the big news. Becca22 December 22nd, 2008 at 10:06 am This picture really saddens me…that poor baby probably could have been viable that far along. These abortionists are truly sick (and greedy, since it’s ALL about the money). She must not have had much further to go. You would have thought she would have bonded with it by this point. Poor thing didn’t know what was coming…makes me want to cry. ALL: Planned Parenthood protecting child rapist … again Charlie Butts – OneNewsNow – 12/15/2008 8:50:00 AM Another incident has surfaced involving an underage girl receiving an abortion and no attention being paid to the child molester who impregnated her. The incident happened at a Planned Parenthood clinic in the nation’s capitol. Information on the incident comes from American Life League’s Katy Walker. “Counselors in Washington, DC, encountered a 13-year-old girl going into a Planned Parenthood in the downtown DC area [who] was accompanied by her mother and her aunt,” Walker explains. According to the pro-life activist, following the abortion the aunt shared some information with sidewalk counselors outside the clinic. “[S]he informs them that this little girl has been raped by the mother’s boyfriend, and the mother wants to keep the boyfriend,” says Walker. another case. These stories add up to indecent exposure for the abortion chambers. XPPC, and this time the liberals can’t say “well, the girl was only an actor, so obviously PP didn’t do anything wrong!” So sad. That poor girl. “mother wants to keep the boyfriend” It is against the law at several levels. The mom is guilty of neglect if she allowed this. The clinic must report. No one has the authority to have consent for a child molestation. It is extremely problematic for a 13 year old to have her organs mutilated by abortion but the rapist goes free. Cranky Catholic What would be more shocking is a photo of her walking out. Maybe late term abortions are down because women aren’t waiting so long. December 22nd, 2008 at 12:01 pm Yeah, Hal, maybe no fewer children are being killed! Way to look on the “bright” side. DefundAbortionGuy When I look back at 2008, I am impressed by how many different pro-life groups made major impacts. Different strategies, approaches and techniques are great as long as they are advancing the same goal of protecting innocent life. It is time to stop the in fighting. If a particular pro-life group is not your cup of tea, don’t trash them, quietly find an aproach that fits your personality and get to work. Whether it be quiet prayer, public protest, political strategy, helping unwed mother, writing letter, boycotting pro-abortion compainies, or blogging, there is a pro-life niche for everyone. So don’t complain – find your niche and get to work! Posted by: Hal at December 22, 2008 11:55 AM They lie about reporting rape. i suspect they are so incredibly uncooperative with courts in providing redacted patient files because they may be dishonest about how far the mother is along in the pregnancy. We have no reason to believe the abortion chambers keep and report honest records. December 22nd, 2008 at 2:51 pm I find it interesting that we have seen pictures of pregnant women walking toward and entering Dr. Tiller’s office, supposedly for late-term abortions, but never once have we seen images of these women, or any women, leaving his clinic. My best guess… It is my understanding that late term abortions take 3 days and women are sent to nearby hotels. I wonder if the same volunteers are not available to snap photos 3 days later? Could someone reprint the top 10 list in summary forms here in the comments? My workplace has a block on Operation Rescue website (as a “potentially violence-inciting website”). kbhvac ‘Maybe late term abortions are down because women aren’t waiting so long.’ Or it could be that the procrastinating pregnant ones are responding to the ‘dead babies are us’ new marketing campaign: Do not punish your self, ‘Abort early, abort often.’ The 0’bama (pbuh) guarantees, ‘No child will be left behind.’ yor bro ken Here ya go Michael: 1. Collapse of An Abortion Empire � Clinica Medica Para La Mujer De Hoy CLOSED! The subject of one of Operation Rescue�s long-term campaigns, the six remaining abortion mills in the Clinica Medica Para La Mujer abortion chain permanently closed this year after owner Bertha Bugarin was arrested and charged with numerous felonies for committing abortions without a medical license. Also arrested was convicted sex offender and abortionist Laurence Reich, who continued to do abortions for Bugarin without a license that had been stripped from him last year. At least 10 other abortionists associated with Bugarin lost medical licenses, were subject to Medical Board disciplinary action, or some had some other run in with the law since OR began its project in 1999. Bugarin pled no contest to 7 felonies in Los Angles on December 1, then, three days later, walked into a San Diego court room and pled guilty to 9 felonies, putting an end to her horrific illegal abortion reign of terror. 2. Massachusetts Abortionist Involved in Smith Death Surrenders License, Closes Clinics, And Is Criminally Indicted Abortionist Rapin Osathanondh permanently surrendered his medical license and closed his two abortion mills in February rather than submit to discipline for killing Laura Hope Smith during an abortion last year. Operation Rescue had worked with Laura�s mother, Eileen, and helped direct her to file a complaint with the Medical Board and work with the District Attorney to procure criminal charges. Osathanondh was finally indicted by a grand jury in July and forced to surrender his passport at his arraignment in order to keep him from fleeing the country. A sign from one of Osathanondh�s closed clinics now hangs as a trophy in Operation Rescue�s new headquarters. 3. Election 2008 – Truth Trucks Dog Obama Campaign Trail! Beginning in February, Operation Rescue�s Truth Trucks began to dog Sen. Barack Obama�s campaign trail. OR unveiled a new set of Truth Truck signs and launched a powerful web site, AbortionIsAnObamaNation.com, in time for the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado , in August, where Michelle Obama got an eyeful of the truth during an encounter with one of OR�s Truth Trucks. Faithful drivers in various states across the nation, including Virginia, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Kansas, Washington, California, North Carolina, and more, confronted Obama backers with their candidate�s support for child-killing, and directed them to the new web site that exposed Obama�s abortion extremism. 4. OR Releases Photos Showing KS Gov. Sebelius Partying With Abortionist Tiller At Governor�s Mansion Operation Rescue obtained and released exclusive photographs taken at a lavish secret party hosted by Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius for abortionist George Tiller and his entire abortion clinic staff. The photos of the party, held at the governor�s official mansion, had clear political overtones that caused even the liberal editorial writers from the Wichita Eagle and the Kansas City Star to question Sebelius� judgment in hosting the affair. Her controversial connection to Tiller, who is facing criminal abortion charges, is most likely responsible for dashing Sebelius� hopes for a Vice Presidential nod and an appointment to Obama�s Cabinet. 5. OR Moves Into National Headquarters In Redeemed Abortion Mill Operation Rescue finally completed a total renovation of the former Central Women�s Services abortion clinic, which we bought and closed in June of 2006, and began full time operations there. We immediately began seeing babies saved as women continued to visit our office, thinking it was still an abortion clinic. OR dedicated a memorial wall to remember the babies who died in that building. A local artist has loaned OR beautiful original portraits of babies that now hang on the memorial wall. The building that was once a killing center is now a place where Operation Rescue works daily to save lives and stop abortion, to the glory of God, who made the miraculous transformation possible. 6. OR Exposes Botched Abortions And Other Problems At Abortion Mills Around the Nation In addition to campaigns exposing the abortion atrocities of Bertha Bugarin in California and Rapin Osathanondh in Massachusetts, Operation Rescue also helped expose a series of botched abortions and other problems at abortion mills across the nation. Here are some of the stories: � WICHITA, KS � OR documented botched abortion horror story of Patient S. , who suffered life-threatening injuries during an abortion at Tiller�s abortion mill. OR called for the immediate suspension of Tiller�s medical license. Two other botched abortion incidents there were also reported by OR. � LINCOLN, NE � OR published photos of the emergency transport of a botched abortion patient from a Planned Parenthood and exposed abortionist C. J. LaBenz as the likely culprit in the injury. � DETROIT, MI � OR helped publicize the illegal dumping of aborted babies and patient medical records by abortionist Alberto Hodari, which was discovered by Citizens for a Pro-Life Society. OR helped heighten public pressure and Hodari was eventually charged with 12 counts of illegal dumping of medical records. � HIALEAH, FL � Operation Rescue continued to keep alive the story of Baby Shanice Denise Osbourne, who was born alive during a failed abortion, placed an a bag, and tossed on the clinic roof to die. OR helped promote her funeral held in October, and applied public pressure that renewed investigative efforts by the county prosecutor. � LEXINGTON, KY � OR helped expose the horrific case of what one reporter decribed as Hamid Sheikh�s �hellish abortion operation.� His license has been suspended and his clinics closed. He also faces criminal charges of fraud. OR discovered that he referred women to George Tiller�s late-term abortion mill in Kansas, and are thankful that referral source is now terminated. 7. Operation Rescue�s Investigations Expose Tiller Operation Rescue engaged in a number of investigations and campaigns that continued to expose wrongdoing at George Tiller�s infamous late-term abortion mill in Wichita, Kansas. The successful impact of OR�s campaigns was noted in a front page article published in June in the Chicago Tribune. The results of some of OR�s investigations included: � The release evidence obtained by an OR investigation that showed illegal late-term abortions continued at Tiller�s abortion mill. � The release of women�s first-hand testimonies of illegal and/or coerced abortions that they received at WHCS. � OR revealed the name of the second Kansas physician who as secretly signing off on Tiller�s post-viability abortions. Just hours later, due to public pressure, he and another physician both vowed to stop providing second signatures for Tiller�s post-viability abortion patients. � OR uncovered and released an eyewitness confession of a former Tiller worker who says she saw abortionist Shelley Sella stab to death a baby born alive during a late-abortion at WHCS. OR reported the incident to the authorities. � Operation Rescue was notified by the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts that complaints filed against Tiller for violations discovered by OR investigations were moving forward. This is after the Executive Director and Chief Counsel resigned in disgrace over their handling of disciplinary cases. OR had frequently called for their resignations. 8. Late Abortions in KS Decrease by 54% Since Operation Rescue�s Arrival Statistics for 2007, released by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment this year, show that since Operation Rescue relocated to Kansas in 2002, late-term post-viability abortions have dropped an amazing 54%. That includes a 28% decrease in 2007, a year in which OR hosted three major prayer events, and continued to expose Tiller wrong-doing. 9. Tiller Prosecution Moves Forward Following months of delay, Tiller�s criminal prosecution began to move forward, albeit at a snail�s pace, after numerous motions filed by Tiller had been denied. Tiller prosecutors continue to refer disparagingly to Operation Rescue in court documents and proceedings. In November, four days of testimony was heard in Tiller�s motion to suppress evidence against him found in abortion records. The hearings, which have been continued to January 6, 2009, are a desperate (and likely futile) attempt by Tiller�s defense to shift the focus off Tiller�s criminal acts and onto alleged improprieties in the Attorney General�s office. Operation Rescue carefully monitored the hearings and reported on the developments. Hearing reports: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4 10. Operation Rescue�s Involvement In Abortion Grand Juries Operation Rescue was involved in two citizen-called grand juries in efforts to bring Tiller and Planned Parenthood to justice. Newman testified before Tiller Grand Jury and supplied them with over 200 documents that showed Tiller�s involvement in criminal abortions. During that grand jury, Tiller�s attorneys filed a motion lashing out at Operation Rescue�s media campaign that had been launched in an effort to prevent corruption. Judge Buchanan dismissed the Tiller motion after five minutes. Operation Rescue was also part of a coalition that convened a grand jury in Johnson County, Kansas, to investigate Planned Parenthood. Unfortunately, neither grand jury chose to indict, but nevertheless, the effort was worth the try and helped educate the citizens of Kansas about the misconduct that exists in the state�s abortion industry. “Isn�t it true that every honest German is ashamed of his government these days? Who among us can imagine the degree of shame that will come upon us and our children when the veil falls from our faces and the awful crimes that infinitely exceed any human measure are exposed to the light of day?” From the first leaflet of the White Rose. “Since the conquest of Poland three hundred thousand Jews have been murdered in this country in the most bestial way � The German people slumber on in their dull, stupid sleep and encourage these fascist criminals � Each man wants to be exonerated of a guilt of this kind, each one continues on his way with the most placid, the calmest conscience. But he cannot be exonerated; he is guilty, guilty, guilty!” From the second leaflet of the White Rose. “We will not be silent. We are your bad conscience. The White Rose will not leave you in peace!” From the fourth leaflet of the White Rose. me too. that poor child. Maybe she wasn’t even pregnant, she could have been bloated, she could have had a something else going on. I’ve been really big when I have PMS, luckily I can just suck it in but when a bad picture is taken I look preggers. Ask Patricia, she once asked a woman how far along she was and the woman responded “I’m not pregnant.” Ever hear of beer belly? Or a saggy belly from having kids? I think it’s so funny that you’re crying for a “baby” that could actually be IBS. Look at this guy: http://cache.gizmodo.com/gadgets/images/beer%20belly.jpg He must be at least 7, 8 months? Won’t someone please help his baby! I’ll pray that you learn from personal experience Liz. December 23rd, 2008 at 8:29 am Jess, I would NEVER EVER have an abortion. I’ve seen ultrasounds; I’ve felt a baby hiccup in the womb (my oldest niece). And there are doctors that specialize in HIGH RISK pregnancies, if I or any other woman would ever have need of one. Someday Jess you might want to start a family. You will be pregnant, you will feel the first kicks and see that first ultrasound. You will watch your baby and your belly grow. Then you will know what many of us here already know. December 23rd, 2008 at 10:11 am Jess, you’ve got to be kidding me. The woman is obviously pregnant. You might look 4 months pregnant and have a little “baby bump” when bloated, but NO ONE has that shape unless they are pregnant. Do women wear maternity clothes when they are bloated and scoot down to Tiller’s for a chit chat?? I know that when I’m feeling frisky I like to put on an empathy belly, slap on some maternity clothes, and go see a late term abortionist. It’s just a good way to pass the time./sarcasm. Jess, Seriously. Shut up. December 23rd, 2008 at 12:59 pm I will never know how a woman can choose to have an abortion, but especially a late term one, after weeks of feeling the baby move, having ultrasound, etc That picture is awful to see. December 23rd, 2008 at 1:23 pm Desperate women like me have abortions. Desperate women in desperate situations who are told it is nothing but a bunch of cells, the procedure is quick and painless,and you can get on with your life. In my anguish I believed all of the lies that I was told. Some women actually don’t WANT an abortion, they want help and support but feel they have no other options when their parents kick them out or their boyfriend threatens to end their relationship. In the case of late term abortions, it’s often the doctors who push women into aborting any child that they deem imperfect. Scott Peterson was ‘desperate’. How ‘desperate’ was he? He was so ‘desperate’ he threw out the mama, as well as the [human embryo/fetus] baby, with the bath water. I believe Mr. Peterson was convicted of a double homicide. A jury of former embryos/fetuses/prenatal children deemed him ineligible for the daily double, two for one deal. We humans are stupid, but occasionally we swerve into the truth in such a way that we cannot avoid or overlook it. If Mr. Peterson had half a brain, in addition to no heart, he would have performed an abortion on his wife, in which she would unfortunately died from the complications, and he would have only been charged with manslaughter and attempting to practice medicine without a license. How do we know that they’re actually walking into a “late-term abortionist’s office?” There aren’t any signs, the photos do not have any context. They are just random pictures of pregnant women walking around in public. Hardly “heartbreaking.” Posted by: Josephine at December 23, 2008 1:48 AM ‘Please tell me you’re not American.’ Josephine, here is an ‘American’ who sees things the way the 0’bama (pbuh) does. Maybe this will make you feel better. ‘Scott Lee Peterson is an American who was convicted of the murder of his wife, Laci Peterson, who was eight months pregnant at the time, and their unborn son, Conner. Peterson’s case dominated the American media for many months. In 2005, Peterson was sentenced to death by lethal injection.’ Maybe this is what the 0’bama (pbuh) meant when he referred to being ‘punished by a baby’. Evidently mr. Peterson had not heard of the ‘no child left behind’ strategy. The second victim is what made him elilgible for the death penaly. Interesting…It doesn’t matter if that particular woman had an abortion that day, though I believe she probably did considering there are people camped out in front of Tiller’s all the time and there is no reason to think they would falsify the photo. What matters is that every single day at least 30 women walk into an office somewhere in this country and have an abortion after the point of viability. That is heartbreaking. I don’t know Carla I never went to Tillers and just hung out. Well I’ve never been there ever, actually. Liz what you wrote is far more insulting than anything I’ve ever said. Of course you don’t care, it doesn’t matter if the woman dies or is maimed for life as long as there’s one more baby in this world! In fact it doesn’t matter if we put every woman in a cage and forcibly impregnate them as long as we have babies babies babies! I believe there are doctors that specialize in HIGH RISK PREGNANCIES, Jess. Killing a baby won’t stop a woman’s health issues. It probably would make them a LOT worse. I DO Care. I just would like to see an actual medical fact sheet that is not from a pro abortion site like Gutchmatcher Institute that a LATE TERM dangerous abortion would save a woman’s life? “Killing a baby won’t stop a woman’s health issues.” I can’t continue a conversation with you because you simply refuse to think. Again I will pray that you learn the only way it seems you are capable of, by first hand experience. I suggest you stop and think first. I would rather give my life for my own child like Saint Gianna did (in her refusal to have an abortion when it was discovered that she had a cyst of some sort on her uterus) than to have her/his blood on my soul! JessL “In fact it doesn’t matter if we put every woman in a cage and forcibly impregnate them as long as we have babies babies babies! …… …..I can’t continue a conversation with you because you simply refuse to think. ” Maybe you should take your own advice Jess and try posting in wordpad. Jess, there is never a reason for a woman to have a late term abortion in order to save her life. A c-section is always the fastest method of delivery. Stopping late term abortions wont kill women, it will only save children. Liz, you’re quite welcome to die for your nonviable fetus. Just don’t push your preferences on anyone else. I have no intention of dying for the nonviable fetus that someone else has weird notions about. Also, the amount of hype concerning the infamous Tiller is just bizarre. Don’t you people have anything better to do than make up stories like this? I mean all the demonization of this guy who just tries to help women which even extends to an alleged party that Gov. Sebelius had for him? Don’t you read your own posts? It’s freaking FUNNY already. These aren’t made up stories. And the woman in the picture is clearly at least 6 1/2 – 7 months pregnant. With a little help in the NICU, a baby born at 7 months CAN survive. Anna, all I can say is WOW……….killing a child is just WRONG. And Saint Gianna is a better role model than almost anyone alive. Tiller is a blood thirsty abortionist. He’s not a good man. Please don’t push your weird notions or preferences of not dying for a fetus onto me. Thanks. Jess, please stop trolling on the blog. I’d rather hear real arguments from you, not stuff purposely intended to make people mad. What made up stories are you referring to, Anna? Everything that has been posted here about Tiller is true. Anna, again, there is no reason for a woman to die. Think about this logically. What is the fastest way to deliver a baby, inserting dilators and waiting 3 days or having an emergency c-section? I’ll give you a clue, when it looked like I had developed an amniotic infection at 31 weeks, we didn’t go the laminaria route! listen to lauren: she’s had the experience	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2664
__label__wiki	0.857617	0.857617	Stat Trick: Washington 2, Isles 1 (OT) No, loyal readers, you didn't miss a Stat Trick after Saturday's game -- I was away so there wasn't one. Today's trick really should be titled, Ovechkin 2, Isles 1. On to the trick... 1. The great Ovechkin reached 30 goals for the 4th straight season, then added #31 for the winner in overtime. Both goals were on the powerplay. Ovechkin now has five goals vs. the Isles this season, including three on the powerplay. When Ovechkin scores, the Caps are almost unbeatable: 29-1-1 in the last 31 games when he has scored a goal (19-1-1 this season). His six game-winning goals this season lead the Washington is 18-0-1 in his last 19 multiple-goal games. and hasn't lost a game in which Ovechkin scored a power-play goal in more than a year, (Dec. 17, 2007, at Detroit). He tied and passed Dave Christian for 5th in all-time goals by a Capital (194). 2. Kyle Okposo scored the Islanders' only goal, on a 5-on-3 powerplay. He now has 6 goals and 8 assists on the season. 3. Jose Theodore was the winning goal -- recording his 200th career win in the building he once scored an empty-net goal. He beat Yann Danis, who he once shared the pipes for the Canadiens. It was the 30th win of the season for the Caps -- their 30-14-3 record gives them 63 points in 47 games -- it's the fastest they've ever reached 30 wins. ...and a few more. 4. Danis, after opening his career 3-0-0, is now 3-7-1, recording his first non-loss as an Islander today. Danis finished with 36 saves. 5. Ex-Isle Viktor Kozlov led all players with 9 shots on goal. Ovechkin had 8 (giving him 299, 101 more than any other player in the NHL) and Brooks Laich had 7. 6. The OT point ends a 7 game pointless streak, but extends the losing streak to 8 (that's why they call them loser points!) The Isles are 2-17-3 in their last 22 games-- the 7 points in 22 games is the fewest in a 22 game stretch since 1988 -- they had a 3-20-1 streak that season, but they also lost 2 OT games and didn't receive any points for them. (This is actually positive news compared to the 2-17-2 streak in 21 games entering the game -- the 6 points in 21 games was the fewest in a 21 game stretch since 1972-73. Thanks, Matt!) 7. The Isles have scored once in each of the 4 games on this homestand. It's the first time since March/April 2006 that they have scored 1 goal or less in 4 straight. It's also the first time in club history that they played four straight games at home, and failed to scored two goals in any of them. 8. The Isles now have as many points (29) as regulation losses. The 29 points are the third fewest through 46 games in Islander history: 27 in 1999-00 and 14 in 1972-73. 9. The Isles end the Bush administration having earned 570 points in 574 games (better than you probably thought!). 10. Up next: the Ducks end the homestand, and the first-half of the season with a rare Wednesday game at the Coliseum. It's only the 53rd Wednesday home game in Isles history -- that's rare! The Ducks blanked the Isles at the Coliseum 3-0 last season. The Isles are 5-1-1 on January 21 at home, including a 1982 win that launched the 15-game winning streak. Forever1940 is the nom de plume of Eric Hornick. Eric has worked the Stanley Cup Finals four times, and will celebrate his 27th anniversary as the statistician on Islander home telecasts on January 21, 2009.

__label__wiki	0.534836	0.534836	The priest is the elected official for local communities of Orthodox Christians, otherwise known as a parish. Members of parishes follow the rules and teachings of the Orthodox Church and support the parish on a regular basis. The priest as well as his parish is considered to be part of a larger diocese and under the Diocesan Authority. Clergy in the Orthodox Church are those individuals set aside to perform certain tasks and/or exercise certain authority in the life of the Church. Orthodox clergy take care of the ritual aspects of the religious life of the Church, teach, or otherwise help in spreading Orthodox doctrine and practices. They often deal with life-cycle events such as child birth, baptism, marriage, and death. Clergy work both inside and outside houses of worship, and can be found working in hospitals, nursing homes, missions, armed forces, etc. The Orthodox cleric agrees to be a servant of both Jesus Christ and of the people of the church; many of the vestments are intended to remind him of this. Much is expected of the clergy, both practically and spiritually; consequently, they also have a special place in the litanies that are prayed, asking God to have mercy on them.

Verkin Institute for Low Temperature Physics and Engineering, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine Abstract: The special class of solutions of the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations is investigated in the limit $t\to \infty$. It's proved that these solutions split into infinite series of curved solitons in the neighbourhood of the leading edge. Parameters of these solitons depend on the variable $Y=y/t$. Uniform in $Y$ asymptotic formulas are obtained.

We had a missing woman turn up murdered in Santa Cruz, more proof crime is down, getting out of jail for free, getting in trouble gets expensive, running in place, COVID updates for the county, the chosen 3, and new DeCinzo offending people? It’s all here. Watsonville Missing Woman Found Murdered in Santa Cruz In a recent press release, the Watsonville Police Department has classified a missing persons investigation as a murder investigation. Watsonville Police recovered the body of a 24 year old woman and her 47 year old husband is the primary suspect. Watsonville Police detectives located her body in Santa Cruz just before noon Thursday. The family’s only known vehicle was found in Santa Cruz as well. The victim was reported missing around 3AM on Thursday morning. Police said the couple’s two young children are safe and with family members. The county medical examiner is working to determine the victim’s cause of death. As of Thursday night, the suspect/husband remained at large. Just More Proof That Crime is Down Last Monday morning around midnight, Santa Cruz Sheriff’s deputies stopped a driver in Watsonville for having a fake temporary license plate displayed on his vehicle. He was in possession of meth, driving with an open container, and was in possession of someone else’s credit card. You think that’s enough to at least warrant a trip to jail? NAH. He was cited and let go at the scene. He was given a fucking ticket and told to carry on. You want to know why “crime is down”? Here’s why. Getting Out of Jail For Free Tuesday night around 5:30PM, Santa Cruz Sheriff’s deputies responded to the 1900 block of River Road where they arrested a 44 year old Brookdale woman after she threatened another woman with a knife before punching her in the face. She was charged with flashing a deadly weapon and battery on a peace officer. You think that’s enough to keep her in jail? Not in Jim Hart’s jail! he ler her out on a “PTA”. The old Get Out of Jail Free card. Pathetic.

COVID-19 Updates for Santa Cruz County There have been 2,633 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Santa Cruz County, according to the Santa Cruz County Health Services Agency. 23 people have died. 2,403 people have recovered from the disease. A total of 53,402 people have tested negative. 166 have been hospitalized in total. According to a state count, 17 people are currently hospitalized and five are in the ICU.

The county needs to meet the criteria for three weeks before moving to the orange tier. Santa Cruz City Council Race Martine. Shebreh. Sonja. No fourth. Don’t forget to vote! More New DeCinzo? I hear some people are offended by this latest DeCinzo cartoon. Just like old times! and Vote for Manu for 1st District Supervisor for Santa Cruz County. Ike says: I object to the prejudicial and stereotypical misuse of the noble poodle breed for political purposes. That’s a pit bull celebrating diversity. Hater! johnnybitchin says: How about a XL long sleeve in white or gray..ill buy two…love the Dump…..thanks Love DeCinzo. I hope he does some stuff on Hart’s “revolving door”. I’m all for Manu, he’s a breath of fresh air but that cartoon is questionable. Nazi Germany had cartoons pillorying Jews as rich businessmen flaunting their wealth. I can see how this was seen as anti-semitic. Dobosh says: The power of “the comparison to NAZIs” veto is rapidly declining, mainly due to overuse. Come on, now. We can never be even remotely “equal” if certain classes of people are considered beyond reproach in ways that would be tolerated if directed towards other classes of people. I’ve had multiple friends of the Jewish faith laughingly tell me it’s not anti-semitic and they were in no way offended by it. I’ll take their word for it. SO HAPPY to see DeCinzo again! He was the Best part of the GoodTimes newspaper back in the day! I always wished and hoped that he would publish a book of all his Fantastic cartoons that were published over the years and new ones too! Thanks again for bringing him back to me. ERIK N ZINN says: What does a fella got to do in this County to go to jail!? DeCinzo has always had that ability to slice through the bullshit, distill the nonsense of any given Santa Cruz shenanigan and make me laugh. Hooefully he will keep it up. Apparenty it is worse in San Francisco. Saw a news article about yet another place closing down, because the street life just walk in and brazenly steal, in plain view. If under $950, and if the police even bother to respond, it’s PTA. Ignored, of course.	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2696

For Marramao (1997) ' ' the impossibility to lead back this notion to a unitria conception does not depend mere, as in the case of other characteristic terms of modernity, of its polissemia or polyvalence semntica.' ' But it still needs before, in Marramao, of one ' ' structural ambivalence of meaning, which of the place the antithetic premises or diametrical inversas' '. The word ' ' secularizao' ' she is deriving of the Latin classic that means ' ' sculo' ' (saeculum), however, it could also be meant as, ' ' idade' ' , ' ' poca' '. With the time, its significao acquired other meanings as ' ' mundo' ' , ' ' the life of mundo' ' ' ' the spirit of mundo' '. For the ecclesiastics, the term was spread out as something mundane, hedonista. It has divergences in what it refers to the initial use of the term. It is said that the word to secularizar was used first for Longueville, delegated French, in 1646. For it, to secularizar had meant as ' ' the expropriation of the ecclesiastical goods for the princes or of the national Churches reformadas' ' (Marramao, 1997), in this direction, to secularizar was implied in the politician-legal field. Destarte, in the end of the century XVI, this same expression was referenciada of divergent form with the used term for Longueville. In the French canonic disputes it appears, the term ' ' secularizao' ' , as one transitus of regularis canonicus, that is, the ticket of religious ' ' regular' ' to the state ' ' secular' ' , or, in a more general way, as they register other studies, of ' ' reduction to the laica life of who received orders religious or lives according to conventual rule. Tags philosophy Leningrad Insurance Insurance companies put forward different demands regarding the storage car at night. (This applies to vehicles belonging to the "risk group") More recently, it was a common requirement to store car in the guarded parking lot the night of 00-00 hours to 6-00. The fight for new customers and a desire to please the banks – partners withdrew this requirement in the number of exceptions. This paragraph, the contract must be interested in separately. If you keep car at night in the guarded parking lot, it means extra costs. And that's half the battle, because in many areas to attach your car is not so easy.

There are options for combining with other types of insurance. For example, a client with comprehensive insurance policy, can for a nominal fee to expand coverage for CTP to 1 million rubles.

C. Zaida Chinchilla-Rodríguez, Dra. C. Carmen López-Illescas, Dr. C. Félix de Moya-Anegón SCImago Research Group. Instituto de Políticas y Bienes Públicos. Centro de Ciencias Humanas y Sociales. Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (IPP-CCHS-CSIC). Madrid, Spain. This paper characterises scientific output in biomedicine in Andalusia, and Spain as a whole, and conduct a first-time comparison to Europe- and world-wide production. The data were extracted from the Scopus database. Three families of indicators are explored to analyse research quantity, quality and collaboration. The results show an upward trend on biomedical output in Andalusia. Over 50 % was in clinical medicine, whose growth doubled the basic medicine. We found greater than nationwide specialisation in biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology, immunology and microbiology, and pharmacology, while psychology proved to be the most prominent emerging area. The publication in most cited journals together with national and international collaboration enhanced research visibility. More citable papers were published on basic than clinical medicine, and the number of citations received by the former was also larger. The higher citation rate in basic medicine may also be explained by the bigger percentage of papers published in international instead domestic journals. Hence, publication patterns would appear to affect research visibility. The methodology proposed may provide guidance for public policy makers to improve, encourage and intensify good biomedical research practice. Key words: bibliometrics, biomedicine, Andalusia, Spain, SCImago Journal & Country Rank, publication patterns, Heliocentric Collaboration Networks. Este trabajo presenta una caracterización bibliométrica de la producción científica biomédica en Andalucía y España durante la década 1996-2007, comparándola por primera vez a nivel europeo y mundial. El análisis se ha realizado con los datos procedentes del índice multidisciplinar de citas Scopus, que duplica en volumen a los índices Thomson Reuters. Se exploran tres bloques de indicadores bibliométricos para el análisis de la dimensión cuantitativa, cualitativa y colaborativa. Los resultados han revelado una tasa de crecimiento de la investigación en Andalucía del 124 % frente al 97 % nacional, principalmente en el campo de la Medicina Básica más que en la Clínica. También se ha detectado una mayor especialización temática con respecto a España en Bioquímica, Genética y Biología Molecular, en Inmunología y Microbiología y finalmente en Farmacología, mientras que Psicología destaca como el área más claramente emergente. La publicación de una mayor cantidad de documentos citables, la publicación en revistas nacionales y la colaboración internacional influyen en la visibilidad de la investigación. Por tanto, los patrones de publicación parecen estar influyendo en su visibilidad. La metodología propuesta proporciona una batería de indicadores y representaciones gráficas que permiten hacer un seguimiento de estos patrones para detectar buenas prácticas de publicación con el fin de incrementar la visibilidad de la investigación producida por cualquier agregado científico y ayudar a los gestores científicos en la toma de decisiones.

No twenty-first century government would question the importance of research for national progress. This truism has placed research management at the top of policy makers' political agendas in developed countries. The acknowledgement that scientific and technological capacity is instrumental to regional development lies at the root of studies such as the one discussed in this paper. The role and growing interest of regional governments in scientific policy stems partly from the general acceptance of an emerging rule whereby scientific supervision is a responsibility that should be assumed by regional authorities.1 Moreover, professional management of research projects has been imposed by the European Commission as an imperative for EU funding. Scientific and technological policy management, however, is contingent upon the ability of governments and scientific institutions to assess research performance. Quantitative studies on science and technology are proving to be highly useful in this regard. Bibliometric assessment based on publications and their impact is a subfield of quantitative studies on science and technology focusing on the development of indicators to evaluate research performance.2 As other studies pointed out not only the characterization of a scientific domain is important for the evaluation of research performance but also, some of the many variables besides scientific quality that depends of factors related with the publication patterns.3 Over the last 50 years these bibliometric indicators have been derived nearly exclusively from the citations published by Thomson Reuters, formerly Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), in particular the Web of Science (WoS). In autumn 2004, however, Elsevier, scientific publishers, launched Scopus, a new multidisciplinary citation database. In the interim, a fair number of studies have appeared to compare the two databases, most of which concur in highlighting the obvious advantage of Scopus in terms of coverage.4-5 This tool nearly doubled the volume of sources included in the WoS, making it an effective alternative to the Thomson citation index. This is the first study of Andalusian scientific output using the Scopus database, one of the most comprehensive source of bibliographic data, and hence the first time that account has been taken of much of the research conducted in Andalusia and not reflected in the Thomson Reuters database.6-10 A substantial portion of Andalusian, as well as national production is still excluded, however, because it is absent from both databases. This situation supports the premise that bibliometric analytical findings depend on the methodologies and tools used and must be interpreted bearing in mind both the conditioning factors and the policy and structural context involved. When assessing the suitability of a given database for the bibliometric analysis of a scientific area, the primary question is the coverage of that area in the databases considered. The quality and reliability of the information gathered, in particular with regard to citation and author affiliations, must be not only correct, but thorough and well structured. Comparative studies of databases have shown that Scopus also meets these requirements.11 The additional information included in Scopus makes it possible to develop accurate citation hyperlink algorithms.12 Scopus may therefore be regarded as an actual alternative source of data for generating bibliometric indicators with which to assess research performance in health science-related fields. The primary objective of this study was to analyse the variations in Andalusian scientific output in biomedicine and draw comparisons with other geographic areas and fields of science with bibliometric techniques and tools. While not free of weaknesses or limitations,13-14 bibliometric methodology is generally acknowledged to be useful for research assessment.15-16 This study forms part of a broader and highly detailed analysis of biomedicine and health science. Unlike prior studies, the present paper aimed to assess biomedicine in Andalusia over a 12-year period in the national and international context, and compare the results to region-, nation-, Europe- and world-wide performance. The two specific objectives were to analyse publication patterns, determining international specialisation by subject; and to detect the fields with greatest visibility (number of citations per paper, attractivity index), identifying collaboration patterns to ascertain the strengths and weaknesses of biomedical research on each scale studied. This paper discusses material and methods, describes the indicators used to measure the results of Andalusian biomedical production and compares regional performance with the performance in Spain as a whole, Europe and the world. It also reviews the methodology for a brief analysis of one of the areas studied. The results on research activity refer only to papers published in internationally visible journals indexed in Scopus database. Finally, the conclusions and proposals for future studies are presented. The data for the analysis were obtained from the bibliometric version of the Scopus database created by Spain's researchers.17 The Scopus database contains over 18 000 sources. The use of Scopus for the analysis proved to be both suitable and promising for future research18 and its inclusion of Medline, which makes Scopus the leading international source of information on biomedical articles.19 Prior studies have also compared Scopus database to Ulrich's Periodicals Directory to determine the degree of coverage and consistency in the databases, as well as to study their representativeness, characteristics and bias. Attainment of the highest possible degree of coverage does not suffice: the greatest possible uniformity is also imperative, while discipline- and nationality-based bias must be avoided. The correlation between Scopus and the Ulrich directory is high for subject matter distribution (R2= 0.99), but somewhat lower for countries (R2= 0.95).20 Given these characteristics, the database used for calculating the indicators was open access portal SCImago Journal & Country Rank (SJR) [http://www.scimagojr.com ], based on Scopus data [http://www.scopus.com]. The SJR portal, a scientific information system that ranks journals and countries, is a resource for comparison on the regional, national or international scale. In addition to its use for scientific benchmarking, it provides wider coverage of data and type of document covered and hence is more representative of scientific activity, in this particular case, in Andalusia, a region in southern Spain. The present study entailed the development of specific software to import the records and build an ad-hoc database in Microsoft Access with the information on biomedicine. Once structured, the data were classified by date, geography and subject area. The period studied was 1996 to 2007 and the areas were Andalusia, Spain, Western Europe and the world. The Scopus subject area categories were used to classify the journals by subject. Nine areas related to biomedicine were chosen and re-grouped into two main subfields: clinical and basic medicine. The results are represented by using the Microsoft Excel and Pajek, a software for network analysis. The indicators used in the study were structured under three headings: 1. quantitative information. Ndoc: number of documents regardless document type; % Ndoc: percentage of documents with respect to the region, nation-, or world-wide total; Ndocc: number of citable documents: articles, reviews and conference papers only; GR: growth rate; AI: activity or specialisation index, reflecting the relative activity in a given subject area in terms of the level of specialisation, understood to mean the relative effort devoted to that area. 2. visibility. Ncit: total number of citations received in 1996-2007 Cpd: number of citations per document in each aggregate; ATTI: attractivity index, which characterizes the relative impact of a country's publication in a given subject field as reflected in the citations they attract. ATT value of one is an indication that the number of citations received by the unit (institution, region, discipline...) in question is in line with the nation- or world-wide mean, or whatever other reference is adopted. ATT value of over one signifies "added value" or "strength" and means that the target unit received more citations than the reference unit. A value below one denotes the opposite.21 four types of collaboration are defined: no collaboration means papers authored by a single institution; domestic collaboration means papers authored by two or more domestic institutions but with no foreign participation; domestic and international collaboration for papers involving two or more national institutions and at least one foreign institution; and international collaboration means papers with authors in more than one country but only one institutions for the analysed country. VtC is visibility (i.e., citations per paper) depending on the type of collaboration. NETWORK VISUALISATION For the heliocentric network, the methodology applied was an adaptation of the methodology proposed for international collaboration networks, factoring in collaboration and visibility in terms of citations.22-24 The Kamada Kawai25 algorithm was used to position the nodes. This method assigns coordinates to the nodes to adjust the distances between them as closely as possible to the theoretical distances26 Pajek software27 was used to display the network. The map was charted on the basis of the number of articles co-authored by the country studied with each other country, taking a list of neighbours as the point of departure. The countries are positioned depending on the number of articles co-authored with the target country. The graphic, which occupies the maximum space available, is characterised by a central node (country analysed) and a number of surrounding nodes (collaborating countries) with orbits whose distance from the central node depends on the intensity of their relationship with it. The size of each sphere denotes the number of papers produced in collaboration with the country in question, while the colour reflects the country's geographic region. The citations received by articles written in collaboration with each country are represented by lines. The partnering countries orbit around the central node at a greater or lesser distance and their relationship is represented by a line whose length is inversely proportional to visibility. This type of graphic has been used to quickly identify the countries with which a country publishes most (highest volume) and with which it is more visible (closer to the centre). This analysis shows the main geographic axes and to what extent and how these relationships impact visibility, depending on the type of collaboration. Moreover, three concentric circles are included on the graphic, showing the relative impact depending on the type of collaboration: no collaboration (dashed grey line), domestic collaboration (solid black line) and international collaboration (dashed black line). Countries can therefore be identified in terms of their position with respect to the perimeter (less visible), and whether or not their impact is above the mean for the type of scientific partnering involved. Between 1996 and 2007 the number of Andalusian papers published in internationally visible journals were more than doubled (124 %). That rise was higher than recorded for Spanish science as a whole (97%) (Fig. 1) The region's contribution to the nationwide total rose steadily, reaching 15.65 % by the end of the period studied. While Andalusian output grew faster than in the country overall, its biomedical output showed slightly lower growth (95.46 %). Although the number of biomedical papers per year increased, their percentage of the regional total declined slightly (Fig. 2), dotted line with triangles. This decline may have been due to the consolidation of the field of biomedicine to the point that it reached a saturation threshold, along with the appearance in overall Andalusian output of emerging areas such as agri-food sciences and mathematics, which have been gaining ground in the region. The data on research visibility, in turn, showed that the number of citations per paper received by Andalusian production as a whole was higher than observed for Spain nationwide.28 The breakdown of biomedical output showed that clinical medicine grew nearly 140 % while basic medicine rose by under 60.4 %. Consequently, the most prominent characteristic observed was the increase in clinical studies and their contribution to Andalusian biomedicine as a whole. Figure 2 shows that whereas output was higher in basic medicine in the early years, the trend reversed from 1998 to 2000, although the two subfields converged in 2001-2002. From that time on, however, production was consistently higher in clinical medicine. TYPE AND LANGUAGE OF DOCUMENT This upward trend in clinical output did not carry over to equivalent growth in visibility, primarily because growth was driven by an increase in non-citable documents on clinical medicine, i.e., papers other than research articles, reviews or congress proceedings, which are the types used to measure visibility. Despite the increase in the number of documents in this area, then, since they included non-citable publications, the number of citations did not rise in the same proportion. While primary or citable output accounted for 92 % of the papers in basic medicine, the percentage dipped to 86 % in clinical medicine. This publication pattern translated into a higher percentage of documents cited and consequently a larger number of citations in basic medicine (Fig. 3). The number of papers published in Spanish journals varied widely (Fig. 4). Whereas an average 39 % of papers dealing with clinical medicine appeared in national journals, less than 9 % of the articles on basic medicine were published nationally. This would also have impacted citations, especially if the papers were published in English. This finding, while important from the standpoint of information and the possible change in publication habits, should not leave another consequential fact unnoticed: an increasing number of papers were published in domestic journals listed in the major databases. The most significant finding, in any event, was that the number of papers published in the domestic journals listed in the major databases increased in the latter years of the series. Several studies have shown, in addition, that papers published in national journals received less citations when written in a language other than English.22,29-30 Collaboration patterns also impact visibility. The data showed that both in Andalusia as a whole and in the two specialities analysed, papers involving national or international collaboration had a higher citation rate than the articles authored by a single institution. Throughout the period, basic medicine accounted for higher percentages of national and international collaboration, while a higher percentage of papers written by a single institution dealt with clinical medicine. Over the years, partnering tended to rise at the expense of single institution authorship (figures 5 and 6). Nonetheless, collaboration rates were highest for papers authored by Spanish institutions only. This behaviour put downward pressure on the papers co-authored with foreign institutions. A substantial share of basic medical research (59 %) was conducted in collaboration with at least one other Spanish institution, while 38 % of the papers were authored with a foreign institution. Nonetheless, participation with foreign partners also followed an upward trend in clinical medicine throughout the period. The sub-graph at the bottom right in figures 5 and 6 represents the attractivity index for each type of collaboration (with respect to the total citations per paper for the subfield). Figure 5 shows that in basic medicine, the papers authored by a single institution had a lower average number of citations than the subfield as a whole, while those published with foreign institutions had 20 % more citations than the overall mean in 2003 and over 30 % more in the following three years. The only papers that consistently had more than the mean number of citations recorded for the entire subfield was the papers written by more than one Spanish and at least one foreign institution. The patterns observed for clinical medicine differed slightly, since collaboration involving Spanish institutions only did reach visibility levels higher than the mean for clinical medicine as a whole except in 2007 (sub-graph in figure 6). A detailed analysis of the number of participating countries (Fig. 7) showed that international collaboration with a single country accounted for over 40 % of basic medical research output, whereas for clinical medicine the figure was 30 %. This graph corroborates the greater international participation in the former than in the latter, although the papers involving the largest number of participating countries were on clinical research. The number of countries participating in clinical medicine also grew steadily, bringing Andalusian research very close to converging on international publication patterns. The subgraph in the lower right quadrant in figure 7 shows the citations per paper by number of collaborating countries (VtC) for clinical and basic medicine combined (vertical axis) and the findings for each set of papers authored by X number of countries (from two to ten or over). Basic medicine proved to be more visible when the documents were authored by 2, 3, 6, 7, or 10 or more countries. Finally, while clinical medicine had a larger percentage of papers in which over 10 countries participated, basic medicine had more than the mean number of citations. SUBJECT SPECIALISATION AND ATTRACTIVITY INDEX According to prior studies,6-9 the scientific fields in which Andalusia is more specialised than Spain as a whole are biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology (BGMB) and immunology and microbiology (IM). These authors reported that the region is more highly specialised than the European and world-wide mean in biochemistry, pharmacology and immunology. Specialisation in both biochemistry and pharmacology followed a downward trend world-, Europe- and region-wide, while it rose steadily in immunology, in particular beginning in 2003. While the mean for psychology was not higher in Andalusia than in Europe, this discipline exhibited the steepest rise and proved to be an emerging area across the entire period.28 The fields drawing the largest number of citations concurred with the fields where specialisation was greatest, although slight differences were noted. Trends varied across the period, however. While the relative output in immunology declined, the number of citations received rose. The reverse pattern was observed for health, where the rise in output did not carry over to the number of citations. In biology and psychology, however, the raise in the output involved a growth of the number of citations (Fig. 8). Figure 8 compares each biomedical area to the world mean values. Each bubble represents a subject area and its size is proportional to the number of papers published. Its position on the graph depends on the respective attractivity index values, which are represented on the y-axis, and the specialisation or activity index on the x-axis. The reference axes drawn in black represent the world-wide mean values for each variable. As the graph shows, the areas located in the upper right quadrant have higher values than the world-wide means for both variables, the ones in the lower left quadrant are below the mean in both specialisation and attractivity, the ones in the upper left quadrant have higher than mean attractivity but lower than mean specialisation values and lastly, the ones in the lower right quadrant have lower attractivity but higher specialisation values than the world as a whole. According to the figure, the areas with the highest potential are clearly biochemistry, immunology and pharmacology, located in the upper right quadrant, which contrast in particular with the subjects positioned in the lower left quadrant. Other information of interest with respect to the volume of papers can also be extracted from the figure, however. Publishing a substantial number of papers that outperform the world-wide mean constitutes added value for areas such as biochemistry and medicine compared to the much smaller pharmacology and immunology output. On this measure, the area with greatest international impact is biochemistry. BIOCHEMISTRY, GENETICS AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY (BGMB) This area merits special mention because its indicator values were consistently higher than the world-wide reference values. Spain holds ninth position in the world ranking of knowledge producers by volume in BGMB, accounting for 8 % of Western European and 3 % of world-wide output: i.e., higher than Australia but behind China. Its activity index is slightly higher than the world mean but not so its attractivity index (Fig. 9) or the mean citations per paper. Its position is comparable to the Netherlands', although it stands at a considerable distance from the major producers: United States, Japan, United Kingdom, Germany, France and Canada, all of which are located in the quadrant with the highest international impact. That Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, Belgium and Israel are in this upper quadrant, they are ranked high despite their relatively scant output. By contrast, so-called emerging countries such as China, Russia, Brazil, Republic of Korea, India and Taiwan are all concentrated in the lower left quadrant. In the national ranking, biochemistry accounted for a little over 11 % of output and citations, although its relative contribution declined in both respects across the period. The percentage of Andalusian biochemical research papers cited came to 14 % of the nationwide total, which was comparable to the mean for all Spanish regions, and the area boasted a much higher citation rate than other subject categories. In the last five years of the series, in Andalusia and Spain, collaboration with other institutions and countries was intense, involving nearly a third of the total output. The result was a higher citation rate than for papers involving no collaboration or Spanish collaboration only. Biochemistry was one of the most internationally-oriented areas, with papers co-authored with 23 countries. Bilateral partnering accounted for over 70 % of output. Of the most productive countries, the major partners of Andalusia were United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany and Italy, collaboration with all of which yielded good results in terms of visibility. With the exception of two years in the series, international partnering was more intense in biochemistry than in Spanish research overall. Finally, a word is in order on an issue of no minor importance. While collaboration constitutes added value that favours output, internationalisation and consequently visibility for a country or region and is normally attained by intensifying international relations, the results of such collaboration must be calibrated in terms of visibility and impact on the international scientific community. In other words, impact/visibility varies depending on the partner. A recent study on citation flows by type of collaboration and neighbourhood influence concluded that science knows no boundaries. The greater influence of certain countries, regions or institutions over others is due to the existence of a number of immediate environs and the quality or prestige that entails. Influence or the citation rate is greatest in authors' most immediate environs, which need not concur with their national surrounds, and wanes with the enlargement of those environs. The bias introduced by self-citation is maximised in smaller circles. Since the greatest domestically-oriented bias appears in small and developing countries, boundaries should be avoided when establishing relationships31. On other hand, assuming that impact (citations per paper) reflects the use made by researchers of previously generated knowledge, the evidence shows that the major producers use the knowledge generated by their own or neighboring countries. This would explain why impact is so highly concentrated in the most productive regions. One of the implications is that research institutions or country reputation is influenced by their geography, and such prestige is often unattainable for institutions/countries in less productive or less advanced regions or countries. Put another way, a research institution's neighborhood may be limited by its global scientific reputation, unless it can reach beyond its neighborhood through inter-regional alliances with reputed institutions from highly productive regions.32 Therefore, the position of these small, highly visible countries may be explained by factors such as size, international collaboration rate, area specialization and the industrial status or stage of emergence of transition economies, while the position of large countries is affected by the environs and the cumulative repute of their institutions.33 By way of example, the heliocentric network of Andalusia's international collaboration in biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology is shown in figure 10 to gain insight into the effects of collaboration. The map shows, interestingly, that while international collaboration enhanced visibility, not all countries were equally effective in this regard. The three concentric circles define visibility with respect to the mean citation values for each type of collaboration. Note that in this subject area, the mean citation values for domestic and international collaboration (solid and dashed black lines) are very close. The countries positioned in the vicinity have the highest citation rates and are consequently the most valuable partners. As in the preceding graphs, here volume is also a factor to be borne in mind. Output with France, Germany, United Kingdom, Italy and United States was much more visible than with Australia, Finland, Israel, Pakistan or Sudan, even though these latter countries are closer to the centre. Collaboration with Brazil, Russian Federation and China, in turn, afforded the least visibility, which is why these countries are outliers, with values even lower than for papers involving no collaboration. The findings, given in the form of indicators and graphics, compare the status of Andalusian scientific output and citations in biomedicine in 1996-2007, as recorded in the Scopus database, to nation- and world-wide data. The results drawn from the bibliometric indicators on biomedical output in Andalusia show an upward trend, with growth of over 91 %. Over 50 % of the output was in clinical medicine, whose growth doubled the basic medicine figure. Nonetheless, more citable papers (articles, reviews and conference procceedings) were published on basic than clinical medicine, and the number of citations received by the former was also larger. The higher citation rate in basic medicine may also be explained by the fact that fewer of these papers were published in less cited domestic journals. Publication patterns would consequently appear to affect research visibility. The findings on scientific output and research visibility in Andalusian biomedicine presented here must be viewed in conjunction with other types of indicators to be properly interpreted. The assessment of scientific activity must necessarily be «polyhedral»22,34 to obtain a meaningful overview. That means that bibliometric information, while providing very significant insight into scientific activity, is not the only criterion. It must be studied in conjunction with expert review as well as an assessment of the economic impact or translation of research findings to science, technology and society at large. The results can only be correctly interpreted when account is taken of the organisation of the research system and structure of the academic system to which they refer. Moreover, the results of any bibliometric study depend on the tools, indicators and methodologies used. The focus cannot be confined to what is being measured, but must be enlarged to encompass the universe in which it lies and the aspects of research performance reflected. The present paper drew from the Scopus database. This is instrumental to interpreting the results and drawing conclusions. The use of Scopus meant that for the first time, a more comprehensive study could be conducted of Andalusian biomedical research, including a very significant part of the scientific output that had been excluded to date in other studies. Likewise for the first time, a more comparison can be drawn with other countries and the world as a whole. In this context, the huge increase in the number of sources impacted the citation rate, favourably for some countries but in a negative manner for other in which the denominator (number of papers) grew faster than the numerator (number of citations received) in some regions as it is the case in our region of study. Prior analyses relating to publishers' countries and languages of publication showed that many of the journals recently included in Scopus tend to be domestically oriented. An analysis conducted on oncological journals, for instance, revealed that the periodicals listed exclusively in Scopus tended to have lower impact factors than the ones in the WoS, while the journals included in both databases had a higher mean citation rate in Scopus.18 However, the countries, regions, institutions and even individual authors whose total number of papers published was larger in Scopus, saw their citation ranking decline.35-36 As a result, the citation rates of countries that publish primarily in English have barely been affected by the enlargement. A number of papers have provided empirical evidence of the bias that language introduces in the use of WoS-based citation analyses, proving that articles published in other languages have much lower impact factors than papers published in English.29-30 To confirm whether the difference in citations received by biomedical papers produced in Andalusia, as observed in the present study, was due to the language in which they were published, subsequent research is planned to track the papers published in English and Spanish in domestic biomedical journals. In addition, the citation rates in domestically- and internationally-oriented journals, i.e., the ones in both Thomson and Scopus and the ones in Scopus only, will be compared to assess the long-term effects of international accessibility of the former. While the inclusion of such journals may induce a short-term decline in institutions', regions' or countries' citation rates, in the longer run it may entail higher visibility not only for the papers and journals involved, but for research as a whole. Given the international and multidisciplinary nature of biomedicine, partnerships play a very important role both in output and in research visibility and impact. Consequently, information on collaboration patterns and their variation in terms of output and citation should be considered when designing collaboration strategies to improve research visibility, as well as when drafting cooperation and human resource mobility plans and programmes at whatever level (such as scholarships, grants or visiting scholar programmes). Since international collaboration has consistently proven to enhance the number of citations per paper, the characterisation of relationships and alliances with foreign partners is a highly significant issue for managers and decision-makers.37 The ability to position each country in terms of output and effective impact makes heliocentric mapping of international collaboration networks a useful supplementary analysis and decision-making tool. This graphic can be used for both static and dynamic descriptions of an institution, region, country or field of science. An analysis of the variations in these relationships will provide insight into their stability, expandability and visibility, enabling anyone concerned to monitor joint projects and strategic alliances, among others. The present study was funded by the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) in the framework of the project entitled «Generation of scientometric tools for the analysis of scientific collaboration» (CISC intramural project 200810I210).

Strong winds knocked out power to 11,000 people overnight in the Cincinnati area. Crews were able to restore power to almost every home by Sunday morning. Heavy damage was also reported in Miami County, just north of Greater Cincinnati. After surveying the damage, the National Weather Service confirmed two EF0 tornadoes touched down between 10 and 10:30 p.m. Saturday, one in Troy and one in Fletcher. A weak tornado touched down in the southwest edge of the city of Troy. It crossed the city center and Great Miami River before lifting on the northeast edge of the city. The tornado was on the ground for around three miles. Another weak tornado touched down in Fletcher. The NWS classifies an EF0 tornado as having 65 to 85 mph winds. NWS officials said specific wind speeds, path lengths, width and timing will all be noted when conducting survey returns. NWS officials said it appears the two are the first tornadoes of the year for Ohio. The earliest tornado of any year on record starting in 1950 was Jan. 3. in Van Wert County. Saturday temperatures reached the high 60s in the Cincinnati area, tying a record high set 130 years ago. A line of gusty downpours pushed across the area Saturday evening, bringing gusts of wind up to 60 mph in Greater Cincinnati and more than 80 mph at the Wright-Patt Air Force Base. That same line prompted a severe thunderstorm warning to be issued for several counties, which included downtown Cincinnati. As the storm pulls away Sunday morning, lingering clouds will move out with sunshine returning. Winds will also continue to relax. It will be cooler. Temperatures Sunday will start near 50 degrees around midnight, then drop off. Most of the day will be in the low to mid-40s. Monday will be dry with more showers possible Tuesday. Despite being slightly cooler early next week, temperatures will remain 10-15 degrees above normal. by WLWT Digital Staff (2020, Jan 12) Remembering the deadly Super Tornado Outbreak of 2011 30th April 2019 read more Moore: 5 years after a deadly tornado Huge storm hit Shuswap ‘like a tornado’ 20th September 2016 read more Upper Peninsula is Michigan’s tornado alley this year 4th August 2016 read more	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2717

__label__wiki	0.726343	0.726343	Posted on June 12, 2020 by danny_g Best of Comic TV 2020: The Rankings! 10. Batwoman Fighting crime and pissing off misogynists! Image: CW Batwoman combined a solid origin arc for its hero with the most complicated family dynamics this side of Succession. Kate Kane is learning to be a hero in a city that badly needs one; her father runs a private for-profit police force and hates all vigilantes; her step-mother is filled with sinister secrets; her step-sister just wants to love her; and all of this is complicated because Kate’s twin sister Beth, presumed dead after a car accident, has returned, having spent at least her teen years in horribly abusive captivity and is now an insane gang leader named Alice with a Wonderland fixation. Obviously Alice was a huge strength for the show, but Luke Fox’s investigation into his father’s death, Mary’s attempts to be accepted by Kate, their looks into LGBTQ+ struggles, and the arrival of Julia Pennyworth, the 2019/2020 season’s best Pennyworth, all helped make this a great entry to the post-Arrow Arrowverse. Sure losing two episodes to COVID stung them, as it felt like they were ramping up to a Grand Guignol finale with Alice, but come on… none of us wanted her written off this show, so why pretend to “wrap her up?” So the place where they did leave off, despite Alice not interacting with Batwoman at all in the episode, actually made for a decent finale and opened some fun doors for season two… or it would have, but instead of just recasting Kate Kane, they’ve decided to throw out every relationship and every ongoing plotline to start over from scratch with an original character nobody cares about. Thus shooting themselves in the foot in the dumbest way possible. This is actually worse than Michael Bay thinking he could just swap out love interests for Sam Witwicky and keep doing the same character arc. Batwoman made a dumber choice than Transformers: Dark of the Moon, and don’t like how that feels. This was a good show. I’ll miss it, but I have no interest in watching them start over with some Patience-Phillips-style knockoff. 9. Stumptown Her life is a car crash and I never want to look away. About a dozen times these past few months, I’ve sat down to do something, or had a specific viewing plan in mind, then turned on my PVR and abandoned all other plans with a quick cry of “Ooo, new Stumptown!” Whether it’s the lovable cast of various screw-ups or just knowing that, while there are ongoing plots and the occasional to-be-continued, by the end of the hour PI Dex Parios will have probably solved a case and stopped a bad person, this show was a comfort. It’s like a big cozy blanket of possible alcoholics and their enablers righting wrongs throughout Portland. Also, Dex’s car’s tape deck randomly turning on and blasting 80s classics to score the show was delightful. I love Dex, I love her best friend Grey, it took a few episodes for the writers to figure out how to use him but now I’d watch a whole series about conniving taco chef Tookie, this is a really solid ensemble playing complex, interesting characters, doing clever case-of-the-week stories. And when almost everything else I watch is heavily serialized, sometimes I like a little case-of-the-week. Especially since my other favourite unorthodox female crime-solver show wrapped up last summer. No, not Jessica Jones, I speak of– 8. iZombie As the finale said… Bye, Zombie. Right up until nearly the end, iZombie delivered what it promised… a show in which a zombie morgue attendant solves murders by eating the victim’s brain and absorbing their memories and personalities. And the final season had some fun brains, too! Film noir detective brain, not one but two salsa dancer brains, 90s beauty pageant brain, Liv and Ravi in a sales competition after both eating car salesman brain, and that’s not even getting into all the brains consumed for the penultimate episode’s big heist. Also, the zombie/human tensions hit an appropriate boiling point, and as final episodes go, they delivered a slightly bittersweet but very satisfying conclusion, even if they needed a big time-jump to do so. And Clive insisting on joining Liv for the big heist? So moving. That said… the final opposing generals in the battle of zombie and human supremacists were… okay at best. Anti-zombie terrorist Dolly Durkins was easily their darkest villain but lacked the charm and fun of series-long antagonist Blaine DeBeers or their very best temporary Big Bad, Vaughn du Clark, and also lacked the humanity of former Filmore Graves leader Chase Graves. She was just sort of… there, doing evil things, willing to let hundreds of thousands of humans be nuked into dust if it meant the zombies went too. And the zombie leaders weren’t a lot better. Hand to God I will never fully understand what they were going for with that Clouseau/Javert hybrid, Enzo. Still… they pulled a great final season, free of season three and four’s rushed pacing. Damn I’m gonna miss these guys. 7. Arrow The founding father of the CW’s superhero empire does a victory lap on its way out. Arrow had an insane to-do list in its final season. In just ten episodes, they had to a) take a farewell tour of meaningful locations/storylines from the previous seven seasons; b) bring back as many alumni as possible and give them all a meaningful farewell with Oliver Queen; c) wrap up that flash-forward storyline they introduced last season; d) set up the most ambitious crossover event in TV history; e) do the penultimate episode of said crossover; f) do a backdoor pilot for a spinoff; g) wrap things up in a satisfactory way. And god damn it they nailed all of it. They nailed it so well, that for the first time in years, the crossover episode was not my favourite episode of the season. (Look, the Paragons should have needed to do more than stare at a sky-beam and think really hard, that’s all I’m saying.) Arrow turned in everything I look for in an intentional final season. It was a perfect victory lap for a show that spawned TV’s best overall superhero franchise. Arrow’s farewell tour was a delight, and the finale was incredibly emotional, I want to see that spinoff, and on top of all of that, it also served as the perfect build-up to Crisis on Infinite Earths. That’s a hell of a high-wire act. Sure the season hinges on you having liked Arrow up until this point, but they ended strong. 6. Preacher Come Hell or high water. Or angels. Or cowboy terminators. Or religious armies. Or… Image: AMC Preacher was a great show, no question, and this season had all of what made it so… crackerjack performances from Dominic Cooper, Ruth Negga, Joseph Gilgun, Pip Torrens and more; stellar action scenes (find me a better fight between Jesus and Hitler, I dare you); gonzo sequences (witness the real reason the dinosaurs died); and unexpected twists and turns. I just have one note… having overestimated how many seasons they were going to get, they had to race through a bunch of key moments from the comics… Masada, Jesus de Sade, the atomic conclusion of War in the Sun and it’s slightly gruesome aftermath, and of course, the Alamo… all while also building up their own home-brewed apocalyptic climax, with a wonderfully downplayed denouement. Sure it made for a satisfying conclusion, probably better than the comic, but it was all a little rushed. And just not quite as impossible to put down as our next entry… 5. The End of the F***ing World Sometimes the best apocalypse is the personal one. Image: Netflix And in this corner, Britain’s best nihilistic comedy/romance about broken people trying their best to find a way to exist… well, the best that isn’t Fleabag. Last season was a doomed road trip/crime spree for our slightly star-crossed young protagonists, the delightfully caustic Alyssa (just trying to escape a dysfunctional home life) and the quiet, repressed James (who had mistaken profound PTSD for antisocial personality disorder, and found murder… less satisfactory than he expected). Two years after the tense cliffhanger, Alyssa and James are doing their best to move on in life (one more successfully than the other), but the consequences of their ill-fated road trip come calling in the form of Bonnie, another young woman with a personal connection to their crime spree. Bonnie’s abusive upbringing has left her with a deep belief in punishment, and, well, as the show puts it… “The problem with a person having a lack of love is that they don’t know what it looks like, so it’s easy for them to get tricked…” These three leads just kill it, from Alyssa’s struggles to feel anything but the traumas of last season, to James’ awkward attempts to reconnect, to Bonnie’s deadpan tone and really half-assed murdering attempts… Also the direction and editing, using quick flashes of previous scenes to show Alyssa’s lingering trauma, it’s all very clever. This show, as dark as it can be, is just a joy to watch. My only real complaint is that it’s over fast, and there’s no telling when or if we’ll get more. 4. Legends of Tomorrow Protecting history from whatever’s too weird for normal heroes. For sheer, unbridled fun, you can’t beat the Legends of Tomorrow. They have rich characters, sure, and strong conflicts, and great arcs, but they also have such a “Screw it, why not” approach to their stories that every episode ends up at least a bit of a joy. The villains managed to rewrite society into a full-on 1984 dystopia, with free will being outlawed, but it was still such a fun episode and spoke to the dangers of trying to repress and ignore the problems in the world rather than face them head-on and wow that bit was more timely than I thought on first read… I mean I wasn’t happy they wrote out yet another of my favourite characters (neither was he), but in the aftermath… they finally had just enough show for all the remaining cast? No one was being underwritten for the first time since season two or three? That was good. Also the mileage they got out of their Mr. Rogers’ Neighbourhood pastiche “Mr. Parker’s Cul-de-Sac” was really impressive, up to and including wrapping the season with Maisie Richardson-Sellers belting out a punk cover of the theme song (before sadly, but understandably, saying her farewell to the series after four years and two characters). Such a fun show. 3. The Boys I said nobody would ever make this show. I’m so glad to be wrong. Image: Amazon Executive producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg learned a few lessons from Preacher they clearly taught to showrunner Eric Kripke… first, they followed Preacher’s procedure of keeping as true as possible to the characters as originally written (although Hughie’s American now and Mother’s Milk isn’t as big, but on the other hand giving The Female an actual name was an upgrade), but charting their own course through the story. So the show lacks the gruesome takedowns of twisted versions of famous heroes, but it keeps the “maybe superheroes run by a for-profit corporation are going to be assholes” thesis statement. Instead of indulging in anti-superhero ultraviolence, as the comic did, they focused on and really excelled at two of the book’s early central narratives: the indoctrination of nervous everyman Hughie into the anti-“supe” black ops team run by Billy Butcher, while Annie “Starlight” January achieves her lifelong dream of joining the world’s biggest superteam, the Seven, only to find out that it is much, much worse than she ever thought. The titular Boys are all well done, if rolled out slower than I’d hoped; Starlight’s story is horrifying in all the right ways; Homelander is a spectacularly effective monster, with the powers of Superman but the conscience and empathy of Ted Bundy or Mitch McConnell; and even if they don’t get to go four rounds with “the X-Men, but horrifying,” they do not skimp on the shock value of the books, in the best way. From fights to crimes to a smaller scale but disturbingly real take on Starlight’s… initiation into the Seven, they found so many different ways to make you say “Holy crap, what did they just do?” Did the first season end where I’d have liked? No. Am I eager to see where they’re going? Damn right. 2. Legion Godspeed, you fancy bastards. Image: FX How do you tie a bow on a show like Legion? A show that has defied being a conventional series in every way? A show that has grown from one man’s struggle with his own mind into a fight for the fate of the world… whose primary battleground remains one man’s mind. To give us the end, creator Noah Hawley brought us back to the beginning… the moment that the Shadow King took up residence in baby David Haller’s mind, and the fight with David’s father, one Charles Xavier, that led to it. We learn how much of David came from his famous father, and how much came from his mother, still haunted by her time in a concentration camp, still wrestling with the demons in her mind. David, his ex-lover Sid (still pretty angry about getting her mind messed with to make her love David more, which, fair, but arguably she’s causing more problems than she’s solving), Charles, Gabrielle/Mrs. Xavier, and Shadow Kings past and future must grapple with one key question… if hate and violence have put the world at risk, can more violence and hate really fix it? What’s so funny about peace, love, and understanding? In the end, as the Doctor put it, hate is always foolish, and love is always wise. Well… to a point. David, ya made some choices we don’t endorse. But it all leads to a sweet, quiet, simple ending, whose only real flaw is how many of the cast don’t get to play, having hit their series wrap three episodes earlier. And along the way, we got fistfuls of trademark Legion craziness, with trippy visuals and musical numbers and rap battles and the beautiful fairy tale of Chapter 25, a break in the action that set the stage for the big climax. Legion was something special, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. 1. Watchmen Did not expect this to work. I love a pleasant surprise. Image: HBO Two things kick off this look into a possible future for Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ classic graphic novel… a child inspired by a fictional masked lawman, and the real-life Tulsa Race Massacre, in which racists burned down a prosperous black neighbourhood, killing approximately 300 people in the process, and then the government and law enforcement said “Whatcha gonna do” and kept it quiet. So that’s our tone. Like the original graphic novel, one murder sends our lead (Regina King, killing it) down a path to a larger, darker, conspiracy, where the hows and whys and whos-dunnit bring several disparate characters together in a moment that could reshape the world, for good or ill. It’s a tight and thrilling ride filled with great characters, familiar and new, and reminds us that stopping nuclear annihilation keeps the world alive… but it doesn’t fix it. It is, in the end, perfectly Watchmen… it brings us to a deep and fascinating world, tells us one great story, fills it with memorable characters, good and bad and somewhere in between, and takes its bow while we cry out for an encore that isn’t coming. Well, not right away. That OG Watchmen eventually got a series of prequels (Before Watchmen), a movie adaptation, and two sequels in two mediums (this and Geoff Johns’ Doomsday Clock) shows that as Dr. Manhattan said, nothing ever ends. And that is a wrap on year six! As for what’s to come… well, Plague Times and chaos in the States can’t entirely stop year seven. Stargirl and Agents of SHIELD are currently airing, with Doom Patrol and Umbrella Academy right around the corner, and those Disney+ Marvel shows are theoretically on schedule to bring the actual, proper MCU to TV for the first time (yeah I said it)… so even if society doesn’t recover enough for TV to start filming again in time for, as an example, The Flash to kick off its no doubt abridged seventh season in January… we have those. In the meantime, be kind, stay healthy, support the charities trying to make the world more just when you can, listen to the stories of POC… and even if you can’t be a hero, try to be a net positive. See y’all next time. CategoriesDan on Comics, Dan on TV TagsComic TV, DC Comics, Marvel Comics Previous PostPrevious Best of Comic TV 2020: The Best Characters!

Use gatewayconferencecentre@gmail.com if you can’t get through to us on the usual info@thegatewaycentre.org Talk Liverpool renews Gateway agreement Summer 2016 Merseycare’s Talk Liverpool counselling service has renewed their agreement with Liverpool Gateway Conference Centre to provide up to 6 counselling suites between May and October 2016. This is the second set of dates Gateway has provided for Merseycare following-on from 5 years of providing a similar service for the previous contract holder – Inclusion Matters. The Gateway Centre is seen as a neutral venue and not branded as a Merseycare service which helps service users who may feel uncomfortable about enteriong a branded Merseycare facility. Gateway are hoping to be able to provide facilities for an expansion to this service on evenings and weekends to help meet the demand for this much-needed service. Gateway coffee shop now open for business Our coffee shop is now doing a roaring trade serving fantastic Illy coffees, hot chocolate, clipper teas, milkshakes, sandwiches and paninis, cakes and pastries and fresh sandwiches. After a short construction phase which commenced in January 2016, the coffee shop and reception premises and 1st floor additional counselling suites are now in regular use. CJ Henshall’s construction of Birkdale are specialists in this type of contract where business has to continue during the sensitive construction works. New signage and a spruce-up of the outside paintwork will fully complete the job and we look forward to welcoming new customers to enjoy our facilities. Gateway links-up with Smartstyle Training with new ICT resources Following a successful site visit before before Christmas, Gateway are happy to announce that Smartstyle training will be using Gateway for their Liverpool-based ICT and soft-skills programme for 2016 and beyond. Smartstyle are a Microsoft Certified training organisation and run a wide range of courses for end users and technicians and were extremely pleased with Gateway and our central location in Liverpool. Mandy Jones, Chief Executive, said that Gateway’s facilities, position and warm welcome along with the flexibility of our services and competitive pricing all pointed towards a long and fruitful mutual relationship. Nigel collected the 10 new standalone pcs from Bradford with the 21″ wide screen monitors last week and these will be configured ready for courses to start at the end of January. Gateway’s ground floor conversion commences Christmas 2015 We’ve finally made a start on sorting the former disused and unloved cafe space back to add to Gateway’s excellent resources as we continue to expand our services. CW Henshall’s Joinery from Southport have started by ripping out all the old fixtures going back to Brunelli’s cafe from 2003 and all the additional fixtures from Curry in a Hurry. We’ll soon have new entrance doors, a new reception space, new training room, new storage space and 2 toilets plus our own coffee shop and seating area. On the first floor, we’ll put in a new mezzanine floor with 3 more counselling suites so that we can expand our Talk Liverpool services. Really excited about the project which is planned for final completion mid Feb 2016. Looking for suggestions for the coffee bar name to info@thegatewaycentre.org or at our facebook page https://www.facebook.com/gatewayconferencecentre Andrew Collinge Training complete apprentice Basic Skills Assessments – Sept 15 Andrew Collinge Training completed the basic skills assessments of 105 apprentice hairdressers at Gateway this week. Over 3 and a half days, the trainees from salons all over Merseyside and Cheshire came to Gateway to use our ICT suite and perform the online basic skills assessments. They used our ICT workstations and robust broadband connection to put up to 15 trainees at a time through the BKSB on-line portal, to give them a benchmark of their basic skills levels at the start of their traineeship. They’ll continue to receive the relevant individual support to improve areas of their basic skills whilst continuing with their on-the-job practical learning. We’re so glad to welcome them back to Gateway after a short absence and hope to be able to book next years’ cohorts in for September 2016 very soon. Gateway partners with Liverpool City Council for venue hire – Autumn 2015 We’re absolutely delighted to welcome Liverpool City Council to Gateway this week for the first couse of more than 50 which have been organised to take place between September 2015 and March 2016. Gateway was successful in fighting off competition to win a tender to provide conference and training facilities for up to 100 delegates from all departments following Liverpool City Council downsizing some of their in-house facilities following recent premises re-organisation. The first course on Friday 18th September is entitled “Report Writing For Social Workers” and we look forward to welcoming 20 delegates to Gateway for that course. We also welcome for the first time this Autumn British Medical Association who have 2 courses booked in OCtober and also The House of Commons with 2 outreach programmes also in October. Usual suspects AQUA, Mencap training, LMH/HMS, HIT training, The Knowledge Academy, Health and Safety Group among many other one-off programmes are also expected back throughout Autumn and Winter. The Gateway Stays Silver/ Green The Gateway Conference Centre’s commitment to protecting the environment has retained them the Silver award in the Green Tourism Business Scheme. The nationally recognised award was given to the London Road centre for the innovative measures staff had made to reduce their energy usage and carbon footprint. From using recyclable pens in all meeting rooms to installing energy efficient lighting and purchasing an A rated fridge and dishwasher, the centre’s green ethos impressed assessors who said they must be given credit for taking responsibility for the environment. Today Nigel Byrne manager at the Conference Centre, said they were committed to going green and hoped other businesses would follow their lead. He said: “We are absolutely delighted to have been given a silver rating once again and are very proud of the achievements we have made in cutting waste and becoming energy efficient. As a parent I feel a real personal responsibility to protect the planet for future generations. “I know other staff feel the same and have brought that personal commitment to work with them. We have all been recycling and have set up a car sharing scheme, which are small things that long term will make a real difference. Since we have looked at ways we can be greener we have seen that there were so many areas where we could improve. “We were leaving too many appliances on when they could be switched off and are now educating ourselves to behave differently. We are really trying to do our best and are committed to continuing to improve. This is just too important not to do. Some of the main areas where The Gateway has made efforts to be green include drafting an environmental policy, commissioning an environmental audit from Groundworks and providing green information to customers. In addition the business is using phosphate free detergents and soaps, recycled paper, natural products in housekeeping and is now buying mainly Fairtrade products. They have even signed up to a green electricity tariff with energy company Eon – which although costs significantly more, gives peace of mind that 100% of the energy they use has come from sustainable sources Academy Ambassador Awards 09 The Gateway’s Allisha Collins is shortlisted for the Academy Ambassador Awards 2009 We are delighted to annouce that Allisha Collins, Conference Administrator, has been shortlisted for the Academy Ambassador Awards 2009. The Academy Ambassador Award aims to recognise staff in Liverpool’s retail, hotel, leisure and tourism sectors who provide excellence in customer care, and create a positive impression of the city. The awards are run by Liverpool’s Academy of Excellence in Customer Care – in association with 08 Welcome – which has been set up to develop excellent standards of customer care throughout the city. The Academy Ambassador Awards will be held Thursday 5th February 2009 at the Crowne Plaza. We wish Allisha the best of luck and hope she enjoys the night! Welcoming Disabled Delegates Event The Gateway Centre recently hosted an event on Thursday 16th October entitled Welcoming Disabled Delegates. This will hopefully be the first in a series of events we will run to help raise awareness regarding improving services for disabled delegates. We would like to thank our guest speakers, David Wade-Smith, Chairman of The Mersey Partnerships, Jude Sefton, Director of Access Unlimited and Kerrin MacPhie, Head of Sales at ACC Liverpool for their contribution to what was a thoroughly enjoyable day.	cc/2021-04/en_middle_0060.json.gz/line2728

Badiaa Bouhrizi) Al’Tarba & DJ Nix’on Mental Bend Souad Massi The Gaslamp Killer RaSh Radio Daddy G Gabby Young & other animals The Floacist Erotic Market Kitchen Crowd Maimouna Youssef “Elements of music hall, opera, big band jazz and foot-stomping folk are all poured in to the mix with Gabby’s incredible vocal gymnastics holding it all together”- The Sun “Words cannot describe the plethora of varying sensations Gabby bestowed upon her salivating audience. For your own insanity, Gabby Young and Other Animals must be seen live and in full technicolour.” -Kentishtowner The Guardian * * * * The Daily Mirror * * * * Financial Times * * * * The Sun * * * * Gabby Young’s twisting roots have carried her and that stunning voice from her native Wiltshire around the UK to land with a bang at the centre of London’s music scene. The youngest ever recruit to the National Youth Choir at the age of 12, Gabby was on track to become an opera singer until Jeff Buckley and the jazz greats inspired her to switch teams. ‘My family was equestrian and sporty, but I liked being by myself – a bit of a recluse, really. Still, I did all the styles from goth to hippy to punk.’ Whilst still in her teens Gabby frequented open mic nights and played with a spectrum of bands before recording her first solo record in her bedroom before she turned 21. Gabby’s unique perspective of the world around her is inspired as much by imagination as real events, but when thyroid cancer threatened to take her classically trained voice at the age of 22, she got serious about recording her stories. Using her recovery time to pen her melodies, Gabby took in global influences to fuel her heartfelt emotion which shines through her beautifully haunting songs. ‘I feel blessed rather than afflicted,’ she says simply. In 2012, with a list of accolades as long as a pair of stripy tights, Gabby Young And Other Animals, (otherwise known as the “World’s Finest Purveyors of Circus Swing” – Clive Anderson, Loose Ends, R4) released their new highly anticipated album, ‘The Band Called Out For More’, on 11th June in the UK. Written by Gabby (and her partner Stephen Ellis, who also produces), this 13 track work represents a giant sonic step forward. Its colourful avant-garde sound, with lush orchestration, horns and quiet melodies, exudes the best bits of music hall, burlesque, 1920s flapper music, Nouvelle Vague cinema and torch songs. Indeed, Gabby comes across like Rufus Wainwright’s energetic younger sister – bred perhaps on a diet of Bjork, Imogen Heap, and Joanne Newsom – as she sets out winningly to reinvent her own genre, Circus Swing. ‘My sound’s matured,’ is all she’ll say. ‘I’ll admit that. I’ve honed my craft. I’m very happy and settled where I wasn’t before. ‘ Lead single ‘In Your Head’ allows fans to connect with the upbeat party tempo of the first album. Its witty animated interactive promo video, in which you can ‘choose’ which animal to be saved from an evil ringmaster, was produced by Gabby’s friend Georgina Hurcombe (Lovelove Films). So is it all a metaphor for music industry? ‘Perhaps,’ sighs Gabby, with a smile. Where the first album was more uniform in style, ‘The Band…’ cleverly juxtaposes both tempos and themes. ‘Goldfish Bowl’s jauntiness belies its feelings of ‘being trapped’ (‘one look takes me down a peg and breaks me’), whilst the catchy horn-infused ‘Walk Away’, Gabby’s first song written on piano, builds to a celebratory climax: ‘I woke up one morning at 6am,’ she says, ‘and this came out, lyrics and all, in 5 minutes. It was something I really needed to say to my Dad.’ And it’s worth rhapsodizing over the album’s two masterpieces: the first is ‘Segment’, which opens quietly before building into an almighty strings-charged Arcade Fire-style workout. ‘I wrote it whilst twiddling about with some shapes on the guitar; Stephen Ellis came up with the rest of the tune and the main riff – and turned my ditty into an epic.’ The second is the serpentine ‘Neither Beginning Nor The End’, a spine-tingling mid-tempo classic that opens with the lines: ‘I’m a grandfather clock. I slow down every day…’ It builds to a plea – ‘don’t let me down’ – complete with operatic flourishes, before an abrupt finish leaving the listener needing more. ‘After a period of writer’s block I started writing furiously. Some of my songs have meanings that not even I am clear about – and this is one of them. It has images of religion, things breaking, but I’m pretty sure that when I start playing this live I’ll discover its true meaning.’ Gabby smiles. ‘Indecision is a common thread in my songs and this title fits in rather nicely.’ It’s also an apt – if rather understated – phrase for where this big UK talent is in her career.

__label__cc	0.711802	0.288198	Pioneer AVH 4200NEX Review For The Music Lover On The Go If you’re looking for a Pioneer AVH 4200NEX review, it’s probably because you’re tired of dealing with old-fashioned CD players. New technology has essentially made them obsolete, and the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX might be exactly what you need to get your RV up to date. After all, who doesn't love some great tunes on the open road? But of course, it’s not quite that simple. Before making a purchase, there are a few things you need to know. What exactly can this device do? Is it dependable and easy to use? And how does it compare to its competition? These are some of the things you need to know in a Pioneer AVH 4200NEX review. What Is the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX? What Else Should You Know in a Pioneer AVH 4200NEX Review? What unique features does it have? Is it difficult to set up? How Does It Compare to Other 2-DIN Media Receivers? Kenwood eXcelon DNX994S Sony XAV-AX100 JVC KW-V40BT Pioneer AVH 4200NEX Pros and Cons Is This Media Receiver Right for You? Pioneer AVH-W4400NEX In Dash Multimedia Receiver with 7" WVGA Clear... Wvga Resistive multipoint Motorized touchscreen Fully detachable faceplate Android Auto with wired or wireless connectivity The Pioneer AVH 4200NEX is a 2-DIN multimedia DVD receiver. If that doesn’t make any sense, don’t worry. It’s actually pretty simple. As a digital multimedia receiver, the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX allows your RV to connect with your smartphone. This creates a whole world of new possibilities. Some of these include accessing your maps, making hands-free calls, and listening to music in exciting, new ways. This device also acts as a DVD player, which allows your children to watch movies on the road to your adventure. This can come in especially handy on long road trips. As mentioned before, the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX is also a 2-DIN receiver. 2-DIN simply means it’s the larger of the two different radio types that fit into RV dashboards. Radios typically come in single DIN or 2-DIN sizes. 2-DIN radios are twice as tall as single DIN radios. To see if your current radio is 2 DIN, see if it measures 7 x 4 inches. A single DIN will measure 7 x 2 inches. Sadly, you won’t be able to use the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX if you have a single DIN unit. If you're wondering if the Pioneer will fit in your RV, check here. Of course, there are a few other things you should learn in a good Pioneer AVH 4200NEX review. Here are some more useful facts that will help you make a decision. The Pioneer AVH 4200NEX has a handful of features that set it apart from the competition. Two of these include the Apple CarPlay and Android Auto apps. These apps allow you to easily access all of your most important features right from your display. This includes your maps, your music, and your calls. This device also allows you to listen to music in a variety of different ways. It comes equipped with Pandora, SiriusXM, and HDRadio. You also get MIXTRAX which creates a unique playlist from your music library, complete with DJ-inspired effects. Furthermore, you can connect your phone to the receiver through either Bluetooth or a USB cable. Bluetooth specifically allows you to make hands-free calls. You can even use the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX to access Siri. Unfortunately, a common complaint among digital media receivers is that they’re difficult to install and difficult to set up. However, the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX doesn’t have this problem. In fact, in every Pioneer AVH 4200NEX review we’ve researched, not a single person had any complaints about setting it up. It’s easy enough to install that many customers chose to do it themselves. Once it’s installed, the rest will be pretty simple. The Pioneer’s AVH 4200NEX’s display and menus are all very intuitive and easy to follow. You shouldn’t have any trouble getting started. For the most part, response to the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX has been overwhelmingly positive. In fact, almost every Pioneer AVH 4200NEX review we looked at had nothing but good things to say about it. Again, most customers found that using it and installing it were both extremely easy. They also loved how great it made their music sound. Many Android users, in particular, raved about the Android Auto app. However, there have been a few complaints as well. Almost every negative Pioneer AVH 4200NEX review we found involved a glitch or bug of some kind. A few customers noted that it occasionally gets stuck in a boot loop in which it’ll reboot over and over. Unfortunately, there’s always a small chance that you’ll get a defective unit when you buy a device like this. Also, several people have noted that the screen can be distractingly bright. That being said, these experiences aren’t typical. Most people have been perfectly happy with the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX. It currently has 4.2 out of 5 stars on Amazon. Sadly, this is another major downside to buying the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX. It can get pretty expensive. It’s usually going to cost somewhere between $400 and $800. That is generally quite a bit more expensive than an average 2-DIN digital media receiver. Nonetheless, most customers felt it was worth the price. You’ll have to decide for yourself whether or not you’re willing to pay this much for a digital receiver. You can buy the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX at multiple online stores. These include Amazon, NewEgg, and Crutchfield. You can also find it in brick and mortar stores such as Walmart and Best Buy. When reviewing the following products, we used Amazon and the products’ official websites as our main sources of information. Crutchfield was also used on occasion. Additionally, our opinions were largely informed by customer reviews on Amazon. We took price, dependability, ease of use, and extra features into consideration when comparing these products to the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX.

Kenwood Excelon DNX994S In-Dash Navigation System with 6.95" Touchscreen Display The Kenwood eXcelon DNX994S is an excellent 2-DIN media receiver by one of the most trusted names in the digital media receiver market. Like the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX, it comes equipped with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It also has dual camera inputs and is compatible with the DRV-N520 dash cam. It's a useful feature that can help keep you safe. On top of this, it has a built-in GPS, a built-in HD radio, and an adjustable viewing angle. Customers have loved how great this receiver sounds, and they were also happy with its features. They especially appreciated its built-in GPS and its dual camera inputs. Most complaints have been relatively minor. Unfortunately, it’s not able to support an iPhone and an Android at the same time. Also, you can’t use it to stream music that’s saved to your phone. A Kenwood eXcelon DNX994S can cost anywhere from $600 to $1,400. That means it could be potentially more expensive than the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX. While it does have some unique features, the two products do largely the same thing. With that in mind, you’re better off going with the cheaper option. The Kenwood eXcelon DNX994S has 4.2 out of 5 stars on Amazon. Sony XAVAX210SXM 6.4" Apple Car Play Android Auto CD /DVD Receiver... Voice control with Apple Car Play Apple Car Play compatible Bluetooth hands-free calling and audio streaming The Sony XAV-AX100 is an affordable alternative when it comes to 2-DIN media receivers. Once again, it features the Apple CarPlay and Android Auto apps. It also has a rear camera that helps you see what’s behind you when you reverse. Furthermore, this receiver allows you to adjust your music in a few different ways. Its ten-band equalizer lets you adjust ten different frequencies, and its Dynamic Stage Organizer lets you re-calibrate your speakers, so the music sounds like it's coming from your dashboard. Many people were happy with how affordable this device is. They also liked that it has physical volume knobs and buttons, and they felt that Apple CarPlay and Android Auto worked exactly as advertised. However, some people have had technical issues with this product. They had trouble connecting to Bluetooth sometimes, and they felt the touchscreen was a bit unresponsive. The Sony XAV-AX100 can cost between $250 and $500. That's quite a bit cheaper than the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX. That said, it doesn’t come equipped with quite as many features. You’ll have to decide if the extra features are worth the extra money. This receiver has 4.1 out of 5 stars on Amazon. JVC Multimedia Receiver w/WVGA Clear Resistive Touch Monitor, 6.2"... JVC KW-V240BT 6. 2" 2-Din In-Dash DVD Player Receiver w/Bluetooth iPhone/Android. Screen Size 6. 2" Wide VGA. Touch... Pandora, Spotify Control. USB Port for Music Playback and 1. 5A Charging. AM/FM Radio Capability. Maximum Power Output... The JVC KW-V40BT is another affordable 2-DIN media receiver. It comes equipped with both Pandora and Sirius XM. And like the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX, it has a DVD player you can use to entertain your backseat passengers. If you’re an iPhone user, you can use its Siri Eyes Free feature to search your music and make hands-free calls. On top of that, you can customize the look of your display with over 30,000 color choices. Many customers appreciated this product’s affordable price, and they felt it was exactly what they needed from a digital media receiver. They also felt it was very easy to install, and they loved the crystal clear picture on the DVD player. However, a lot of people also had major issues with this device not connecting to Bluetooth. Additionally, many others noted that the sound quality is very mediocre compared to similar products. This product will cost between $250 and $400. Again, this is much cheaper than the Pioneer AVH 42000NEX. However, it’s also much less dependable. There’s a good chance that you’ll have issues with the Bluetooth if you choose this device. Therefore, you’re probably better off sticking with the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX. The JVC KWV40BT has 3.3 out of 5 stars on Amazon. There are a lot of things to like about the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX. It’s easy to use, it has a ton of useful features, and it has an excellent sound system. Overall, it could be exactly what you’re looking for in a digital media receiver. On the downside, it can be pretty expensive. And unfortunately, a few customers have experienced bugs and glitches while using it. Again, this experience isn’t typical for most people. thumbs-o-up Lots of great features It’s easy to use and easy to install It sounds awesome thumbs-o-down It’s pretty expensive Some customers have experienced bugs and glitches As you’ve seen in this Pioneer AVH 4200NEX review, this little device could be exactly what you need to bring your RV up to date with the 21st century. It’s such a convenient way to access your phone and your music, and your kids will love its DVD player. The only real sticking point is the price. This receiver is noticeably more expensive than most similar devices. Still, it also tends to be more dependable, and it has more features. If you’re going to spend that money anyway, you may as well get something you really want. And that something may very well be the Pioneer AVH 4200NEX.

__label__wiki	0.730435	0.730435	Here’s how fragmentation killed the Moment Pro Camera app for Android Ben Schoon - Feb. 29th 2020 9:39 am PT @NexusBen This week, Moment announced that it would be pulling the plug on its Android app, “Pro Camera.” Why? Because of Android’s fragmentation. In the time since, I’ve seen countless people complain that Moment just isn’t trying hard enough or that it can’t be that complicated. Instead of just telling you that I think they’re justified in this decision, I think it’s easier to just show you how complicated the situation has become for Moment Pro Camera on Android. First things first, what is the Moment Pro Camera app? The short version is that it’s an app designed to give you more control over your smartphone’s camera. It enables granular controls for focus, shutter speed, ISO, and more. It can even capture RAW images and has special modes to enhance the shots taken with Moment’s lenses that attach directly to cases for select Android smartphones. You can get a solid overview of what the app does here. It’s a great app, but now it’s dead. The most common thing I’ve heard since this news broke is users asking why Moment doesn’t just drop wide Android support and only provide support for the phones its cases and lenses support. I asked Marc Barros, the CEO about this directly and his answer actually caught me a little off guard — Moment already does that. As it stands now, Moment only actively supports around 20 Android smartphones including select Samsung, Pixel, and OnePlus devices. Ok, so what’s the barrier here? After all, it can’t possibly be that difficult to support these Android phones, right? In the immortal words of my favorite Spongebob narrator — Right? Haha, wrong. Moment shared a spreadsheet with me to show every feature that its Pro Camera supports on Android from 24fps video to HDR+ to just supporting all of the cameras on the device. In that spreadsheet, the variance between these different smartphones and what Moment has been able to support is simply astounding. As an example, let’s look at Google’s Pixel lineup. This should be the easiest option, right? After all, Google controls Android itself and even gives developers easier access through the Pixel Visual Core, something Moment Pro supports. Out of the four generations listed in the app, the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL are the best supported. Move forward a generation, though, and Moment can no longer access 24fps video in any resolution and loses access to a ton of other options for shooting video. There’s even differences between Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL, the larger of the two missing some video shooting options. Another notable example is that, on the Pixel 4, support for “HDR+ Enhanced” is lost, presumably due to the switch from Pixel Visual Core to Pixel Neural Core. Green = Supported by Moment Pro – Yellow = Supported by device, but not app – Red = Not supported by device The situation remains the same for other supported devices. Samsung, for example, consistently restricts Moment Pro from accessing anything higher than 30fps video, even cutting off 4K entirely for the Galaxy S8 and Note 8. This is all despite Samsung’s own camera app supporting more options. Why is this so bad? I’m not a developer, so I can’t fully explain that to you, but I did talk to a few people who have more insight. CStark27, one of the developers behind GCam ports on other devices gave me some interesting details about this. He explained that, yes, every device can support varying levels of photo and video features. Vendors can opt to restrict select camera APIs and features on that specific device, something the vendors themselves can get around by “whitelisting” their own camera app. Pure “stock” Android wouldn’t have this problem, but the changes made by vendors such as Samsung, OnePlus, and even Google itself break a lot of these features. There’s also a handy app that can show this to you on your own Android smartphone. Camera2 API Probe will show what the device can support versus what third-party apps can access. GCam ports, as a quick example, require different installations for different devices for precisely this reason. The short answer to all of this though, is that access to the camera on Android is not as simple as you would assume, especially for features as demanding as a Pro Camera app requires. Is there a way for Moment to develop workarounds to get these features working? Technically, yes, but it’s a very complicated process that a paid app distributed through the Google Play Store wouldn’t want to be involved in. Moment’s team of developers is not large, so maintaining so many different feature sets across so many devices has to be incredibly frustrating. Making things worse, most likely, is the constant fear that the next Android update might break something else that they simply can’t fix. You might be angry that Moment Pro Camera is dead on Android, and that anger is completely valid! But, after seeing behind the scenes I think most people can agree that Moment’s decision was at least partially justified. Could this change in the future? Absolutely! Google could start more heavily regulating APIs such as this and the updated CameraX API might be able to make things better, though it could, at the same time, make things worse. Either way, any improvement feels unlikely at this point in time. Google just doesn’t have a track record of being the “bad guy” who forces its partner’s hands and I don’t think we can count on that changing anytime soon. So RIP Moment Pro. You were loved, you’ll be missed, but at least your death is giving us a lot of insight on the fragmentation of Android. Thanks Max, CStark29, UltraM8 Breaking news for Android.
