them. They said absolutely! In racing and business most people have strengths and weaknesses. One of my strengths in racing is endurance. One of my weaknesses in racing is pacing. I tend to start out too fast and then lose momentum. My hope was that running with a pace team, I’d avoid this because they’d make sure I ran at a consistent pace. They did! Not only did they help me run a consistent pace, they paced a little faster than 9:45. What that meant was my finishing time for a 15k (9.3 mile) race was more than 8 minutes faster than the previous finishing time. Now, if you’re not a runner, that may not sound like a lot, but it is. It’s almost one minute per mile faster than my previous personal best. To put that in business terms, that would be like completing a major project more than a week early. As we crossed the finish line, I couldn’t thank the pacers enough. I was so grateful for their help. And I was equally grateful to Bart Yasso and the other experts at Runner’s World who designed such a fabulous training program that helped me push myself to a goal I would have only dreamed of a year ago. You may think the point of this story is the importance of asking for help when you need it. It is. But it’s also about showing gratitude. While seeking expert advice to help you reach your goals is a good strategy in racing and in business, it’s also important to thank those who help you achieve those goals. Always remember, while you may cross the finish line in racing and in business by yourself, there were others who helped you get there. You should never be too busy to thank people for their time, expertise and willingness to help you. And sometimes thanking people once or twice, just isn’t enough. The next time you reach a goal, think about the people who helped you achieve that milestone. Then, pick up the phone, type an email, send a hand written note or whatever you feel is appropriate to let those people know how much you appreciate their help. Then, take your gratitude to the next level…and when someone asks you for help, don’t hesitate to give it. You are currently browsing the Abelpr's Blog blog archives for April, 2010.

The same colour, which if you’re well-disposed you’d describe as milk chocolate, is used for the base of the flatbed, when you lift the lid.

Free weights and machines each have their benefits, but what often keeps us out of the weight room is simple fear of the unknown. So here’s a simple guide on how to pick up weights and put them down again, while looking like you know what you’re doing. Gyms often keep the free weights in a separate area from the cardio machines and the weight machines. When you get more used to lifting, you’ll find that convenient. But if you’re an outsider, it can be intimidating. My college gym had the weights and the machines in two separate rooms; another gym I tried had them on separate floors. Either way, check out what’s available. If weights are in their own area but there’s no wall separating them from the rest of the equipment, design a workout around the machines at the perimeter of the weight room, and just watch. Ask for a tour. It is totally normal to be a regular in the cardio room and know nothing about the weight room. Staff will be happy to find someone to show you around and answer questions. How many benches are there? How small are the smallest dumbbells? Is there empty space on the floor to do exercises like deadlifts? How many squat cages/power racks are there? Where

Blazing with need. She can’t avoid being burned. Werewolf Damon Trahan lives by one rule, protect the pack with his life. Content to be left alone, he avoids complications until he is ordered to rescue a general’s daughter from a rival Wolfpack . . . or die trying. Little does he know she will tempt him to break every rule he’s ever known, because the opposing pack isn’t the only enemy in Ava’s life. Her own father has been keeping deadly secrets from Ava, and now it’s up to Damon to convince her of the truth before it’s too late. Ava Renfroe is tired of Alpha males running her life. Growing up the daughter of a strict military general made her crave independence more than air. First she’s kidnapped, and the danger ignites a rage in her body she’s never felt before. Adding insult to injury, her commanding and arrogant new bodyguard is exactly the kind of man she doesn’t want. But try telling that to her out of control libido. Being on the run with a dark and powerful stranger will push Ava so far she might never recover. But this wild, needy thing stirring to life inside her? With the entire Wolfpack hunting them, there is nothing Damon can do now but keep her close . . . and let their passions burn. This is a very busy book with narrow escapes, rescues fraught with peril, werewolf politics and a romance that has a lot of hurdles to overcome – one of which is survival of one or both of the protagonists.

-fans/ it comes to matters of sex especially when they lack the confidence of performing in bed. It first starts out with a lengthy prologue. Halfway through the book I didn’t understand its relevance; why go through so much detail in a prologue? It took me almost to the end of the novel to figure it out. Damon protected the heroine even though they were perfect strangers. It is a precursor to his role later on. The hero is a protector, a Guardian. It’s an avocation that comes naturally to him and fate has a hand in steering his protective instincts towards the perfect person to shield, in a most dramatic way – Ava. Ava starts off kind of weak; at least I got that impression in the prologue because she’s impulsive in her wish to be independent. I don’t think she was mature enough at that point to realize her self-worth. Her short interaction with Damon seemed to be the turning point because when I met Ava in chapter one, she wasn’t the same – she was better. I feel the need to alert readers to one pertinent fact about the prologue – don’t expect it to play a role in any way at any point in the novel. For some reason, Ava doesn’t recognize Damon as meeting in the past and Damon never alludes to it, mentions or reveals it. It’s like it has no bearing on the story, or plot. I think it’s to introduce a reader to the hero and heroine and allude to the fact a connection between them is fated and inevitable. The catalyst for change in their lives occurred during the prologue, and that’s it as far as I can figure. As for the meat of the story, the suspense and drama start fast in the first chapter and everything builds from there – the clues, the escapes and the forced closeness between Damon, the Guardian, and Ava, the rescuee turned sleuth heroine. What almost happens to Ava is terrifyingly horrid – she was going to be raped by a group of men/werewolves just shy of a platoon. That’s a hellacious thought and one a reader won’t have to endure. There’s just enough detail to paint a picture of a narrow escape of a fate worse than death. Eventually, the clues mount up and point the direction the hero has to go in order to ensure Av

like Romeich Major.” The latter part of her performance saw a blue-haired Shen doing a rendition of her track “Bad Habit,” which was released in April 2020. The track has since amassed 800,000 views on Youtube, which is one of Shenseea’s lowest charting tracks on the platform for 2020. Despite what many would consider a slow year, Shen managed to secure well over a couple of millions on her releases on the platform. Some of her standout hits include the music video for “Trick’a Treat,” with over 8 million views; “The Sidechick Song,” which stirred controversy with its edgy content leading to over 16 million views; and the audio for “Wasabi,” which is comfortably moving towards 4 million views. Shenseea had a big year in 2020. Shenseea also worked with some of the top music video directors to provide some truly interesting video concepts for the likes of “Good Comfort,” in which she played a tough cop. That video earned her over 6 million views, which was rivaled by her supermarket excursion in “Sure Sure,” which snagged over 4 million views on Youtube. Still, those numbers dwindle when compared to Tarrus Riley’s “Lighter,” on which she was featured. The official music video has since earned 35 million views on Youtube. “Rebel” and “Bad Alone” are late entries in the impressive 2020 catalog securing 8 million and 3 million views, respectively. No wonder the songstress was provided with the prestigious title of Female Artiste of the Year by The Jamaican Gleaner. With such an extraordinary 2020, all eyes are on Shenseea for 2021, and her fiery freestyle is definitely one of the best ways to kick things off. During a 2020 interview, the “Blessed” singer highlighted that she would be releasing her much anticipated debut album sometime soon, fingers crossed that it takes place in 2021.

laps. McClelland fought back well to snap up the second spot in the major final, with Frazier Carr (University of Bath CC) just missing out by two seconds to qualify for the 20k final – despite arguably being the most attacking rider in the heat. Brendan Drewett (Fareham Wheelers CC) took the other spot in the 20k final, with early leader Mitchell sadly only able to qualify for the 15k final. Matt Gittings showed displays of brilliance in the heats The final heat had a rather frantic start with Harry Strudley (University of Bath) taking the early lead. However, this dominance faded after six laps with Vojtech Blazejovsky (Brixton CC) and Alistair Rutherford taking charge at the front of the race. The two riders stayed at the front for the remainder of the race, qualifying for the major final nearly a lap ahead of third placed Connor Woodford (Willesden CC). Johannes Roux (Giant Cycling Club-Halo Films) took the other place in the 20k final. The 15k derny final was contested by just four riders and the riders remained bunched together – and in the same order – for the entire race. In the closing three laps, Strudley and Mitchell broke away from the other two finalists, with a frantic sprint ensuing in the final straight. Strudley, paced well by Jason Pitt, came out on top to win the race, finishing just a five metres clear of Mitchell. Beth Engvis (Scarlet Fire Racing) rode well to finish third, with Jacob Kilby (Palmer Park Velo) taking fourth spot. Alistair Rutherford was paced to victory with perfection by Pip Taylor The 20k final saw Tom Simpson steal an early lead in the race; a lead he was able to sustain for a full 10 laps. However, perhaps due to going off rather harder than planned, the group caught the tiring Simpson with 30 laps remaining on the board. It was now Drewett’s turn to take to the front and, under the expert pacing of Tony Hibbert, he managed to maintain it until Frazer Carr, who had clearly been biding his time, attacked the lead with just four laps remaining on the board. Despite the fast pace, the race remained tightly packed until the last lap when Drewett attacked Carr’s lead, passing him in the final straight to steal the top spot; his final lap ultimately proving faster than any lap in the

major final. Carr finished just half a bike length adrift, with Roux and O’Brien taking third and fourth respectively just a few metres back. The 25k final featured a veritable line-up: Matt Gittings may be reigning national derny champion, but Alistair Rutherford has a string of impressive track credentials including gold medals from the recent National Masters and a win in the 30k derny race at the Bordeaux-Paris race at Reading in May. Competition would be tight. Gittings took the early lead, successfully holding it for 25 laps until last year’s winner, Oliver Moors, who had been lying in wait and passed Gittings with 30 laps remaining on the board. Despite the best efforts of Mottram, the race for the win soon became a three-horse race between Gittings, Moors and Rutherford. Rutherford charged past Gittings with 15 laps remaining on the board, resisting further attacks and slowly increasing his dominance on the race. In the duel for second place, Moors looked to be the stronger rider in the closing laps, but a last burst of speed by Gittings in the final lap saw him pass Moors. Rutherford ended up finishing nine seconds clear of Gittings, with Moors a further four seconds further adrift. After losing contact with the leading three riders, Mottram was unable to contest the final podium places but took a convincing fourth spot. DernyFest Podium: 1st Place – Alistair Rutherford (Pacer: Pip Taylor) 2nd Place – Matt Gittings (Pacer: George Gilbert) 3rd Place – Oliver Moors (Pacer: Sean Bannister) Rutherford adds yet another derny victory to his impressive credentials and Gittings, who was undoubtedly carrying a level of fatigue having only flown in from Texas two days prior to the event, should be pleased with a well fought second place. Moors’ display of dominance in the previous year could not be repeated this time, but he must surely be satisfied with his ability to launch attack after attack throughout the closing stages. The pacers themselves also deserve credit: Pip Taylor piloted the winning derny for Rutherford, with Gittings having George Gilbert to thank. Sean Bannister paced Moors to third place.

Building organs block by block Tissue engineers create a new way to assemble artificial tissues, using ‘biological Legos’ — cells transformed into bricks. A half sphere of polymer cubes built by researchers at the MIT-Harvard Division of Health Sciences and Technology. Image: Javier Gomez Fernandez Researchers at the MIT-Harvard Division of Health Sciences and Technology built this tubular tissue by encasing cells in polymer "bricks" and attaching them to a tube-shaped template. Tissue engineering has long held promise for building new organs to replace damaged livers, blood vessels and other body parts. However, one major obstacle is getting cells grown in a lab dish to form 3-D shapes instead of flat layers. Researchers at the MIT-Harvard Division of Health Sciences and Technology (HST) have come up with a new way to overcome that challenge, by encapsulating living cells in cubes and arranging them into 3-D structures, just as a child would construct buildings out of blocks. The new technique, dubbed “micromasonry,” employs a gel-like material that acts like concrete, binding the cell “bricks” together as it hardens. Ali Khademhosseini, assistant professor of HST, and former HST postdoctoral associate Javier Gomez Fernandez describe the work in a paper published online last week in the journal Advanced Materials. The tiny cell bricks hold potential for building artificial tissue or other types of medical devices, says Jennifer Elisseeff, associate professor of biomedical engineering at Johns Hopkins University, who was not involved in the

was also a MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR Masonic player out in the West Coast. So I have to wonder… is this a relative of the Young Storytellers’ Andrew Barrett? Is Barrett a legacy mason? Is Young Storytellers a Masonic operation?? And then again, I decided to start researching the Soros-related angle more in-depth.

down as a connection. Others, like Nikki Silvestri (of Soil and Shadow), on the surface, seem to be independent. But if you dig back, you find she previously worked at Van Jones’ Green for All, which was a Communist Climate group funded by Soros’ Open Society, Al Gore, and Nancy Pelosi. Life after divestment: how to spend the money saved from fossil fuel investments As more US colleges divest from fossil fuel companies, a new question arises: what to do with all that cash? This January, Swarthmore asked a group of experts – including myself; environmental educator David Orr; former JP Morgan managing director John Fullerton; Nikki Silvestri, executive director at nonprofit Green for All; Soros Money Financed Communist Van Jones When the list of donors to the Van Jones “Green for All” organization is examined, one name stands out-the Open Society Institute of billionaire George Soros. The Green for All 2008 annual report is also notable for the pictures of the powerful people who associated with Jones.

The Green for All 2008 annual report is also notable for the pictures of the powerful people who associated with Jones. They include House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and former Vice President Al Gore. While the Open Society Institute was supporting Green for All in 2008, when Jones was running it, the Soros-funded organization was financially underwriting the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights when Jones was in charge of that group. The Open Society Institute gave the Ella Baker Center $151,800 in 2006 and $140,000 in 2007. Jones ran this group during the years 1996-2007. He then emerged as a senior fellow at the Soros-funded Center for American Progress. Other funders of the Green for All group included Gore’s Alliance for Climate Protection, the Rockefeller family, Men’s Warehouse, the Natural Resources Defense Council, the New World Foundation, the Schwab Charitable Fund, the Streisand Foundation, the Service Employees International Union, and the Tides Center and Foundation.

2001, but it reformed in 2005. Here drummer Trym Torson details how he records his signature tom sound. Roberto Martinelli “I use Premier Maple Classic drums, and when I first signed with Premier, I asked for the biggest toms they had because I wanted them to sound huge,” says Torson. “But when I tried the 12" in both the deep model and the shorter, power tom, the shorter tom sounded way better. If the shell is too deep, the sound reflects back upon itself, and sound against sound reduces the volume. So I’m really glad I ordered the power toms—I didn’t even change the heads that came with them. I’ve got 8"x7", 10"x8", 12"x9", and 14"x11" rack toms, and 16"x16" and 18"x16" floor toms. “Here’s what I do to get a big tom sound. First, I make sure the tone of the toms is optimum for producing a thundering recorded sound. I have this tuning instrument that you just put on the rim, and it tells you the tension of the head. The manual gives you rough guidelines about how a tom should be tuned if you want a certain sound. So I did all the top-head tunings to make the toms fairly high, so you can hear the attack. Then, I tuned the bottom heads a pitch down to get the low frequencies. It can be a nightmare to get the lower heads right—it’s so easy for them to get out of tune. “We used one microphone to record each tom, but we split the signal to two separate tracks. One track was used to bring out the attack, so you could hear all the hits I played. There was no low end at all on this track. The other track was worked to make the tom sound as good as possible—round, rumbling, and intense. This method allowed us to produce all the power and all the attack of the toms. “Even with this method, though, the recordings never come out the way I want them. It’s the best we can do, but I guess you can’t have everything you want. I can’t make my drums sound like machine guns and like an old Led Zeppelin record at the same time. In addition, the drums have

ol/L (20–25 ng/mL) to prevent adverse musculoskeletal outcomes, including falls and fractures.78 The target serum level for prevention of other diseases is not clear but may be higher, in the range of 75–80 nmol/L (30–32 ng/mL). However, there is currently limited high-level evidence to support these higher 25-OHD serum levels.56 Clinicians, researchers and policymakers should be aware of the imprecision of current 25-OHD testing, and exercise caution when interpreting results in clinical practice. Although the performance of radioimmunoassay and enzyme-linked assays is acceptable, the bias and imprecision of many automated methods may be problematic at the lower, clinically and analytically important range (< 50 nmol/L) of the assay. While adoption and alignment of assays to the National Institute of Standards and Technology reference material should reduce bias,79 imprecision will remain problematic. Consequently, some laboratories are using more exacting methods of analysis, such as liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry.79 All Australian and New Zealand laboratories offering 25-OHD testing are required to be enrolled in external proficiency programs (such as the Vitamin D External Quality Assessment Scheme [DEQAS]), which allow each laboratory to monitor its performance compared with its peers. Supplemental vitamin D doses required to achieve targets Some studies have shown that with supplemental vitamin D3, 25-OHD levels reach a plateau at about 8 weeks, after rising by, on average, about 0.7 nmol/L for each 40 IU (1 μg) per day of supplemental vitamin D3 (ie, an increase of about 17 nmol/L for each 1000 IU [25 μg] per day).73,80 However, at any given dose there is considerable individual variation in the plateau level achieved. Although the increment is negatively correlated to the baseline 25-OHD concentration, it is not significantly affected by race, sex or age.80,81 Obesity, however, is associated with lower levels of 25-OHD and a reduced dose response to oral vitamin D or UV radiation.7,12 As it may take up to 2–5 months for serum levels of 25-OHD to plateau,80,82 retesting should not take place before 3 months. There appears to be little difference in 25-OHD values whether the total amount of vitamin D is given as a daily, weekly or monthly dose, with

There appears to be little difference in 25-OHD values whether the total amount of vitamin D is given as a daily, weekly or monthly dose, with
no clear indication that one dosing schedule is more effective than another. Intermittent dosing may be more convenient in some settings, such as nursing homes,83 and may also achieve better long-term compliance.73 There is conflicting evidence about whether vitamin D3 is more effective than vitamin D2 in raising 25-OHD levels,84,85 but virtually all oral vitamin D supplements available in Australia and New Zealand are vitamin D3. There are currently no generally available, Therapeutic Goods Administration-approved parenteral preparations of vitamin D, although these might be helpful where ability to swallow, malabsorption or compliance are problems. Recommendations for assessment and management of vitamin D deficiency are shown in Box 5. To treat moderate to severe deficiency, it would be reasonable to use 3000–5000 IU (75–125 μg) of vitamin D per day for at least 6–12 weeks, although there are no long-term safety data for these doses. This will usually return serum 25-OHD levels to the target range, although smaller daily doses of 2000 IU might be expected to increase 25-OHD levels by 34 nmol/L, as noted earlier. As there is such an individual variation of response to vitamin D supplementation, 25-OHD levels should be checked after 3 months. If adequate levels are not achieved, consideration should be given to possible underlying gastrointestinal disorders, such as coeliac disease. Most patients whose 25-OHD levels have normalised will need ongoing treatment at a maintenance dose of around 1000–2000 IU (25–50 μg) per day or equivalent. For adults in disadvantaged communities at high risk of vitamin D deficiency, such as dark-skinned migrants from low socioeconomic backgrounds, a strong case could be made to routinely provide vitamin D supplements, at the same dose used to treat moderate to severe deficiency, as early as possible, without initially measuring serum 25-OHD levels. As low calcium intake and associated hyperparathyroidism increase the degradation of vitamin D compounds,67,69,84 a daily intake of 1000–1300 mg of calcium, preferably from calcium-rich foods, should be encouraged. According to the best evidence currently available, adequate serum 25-OHD levels of ≥ 50 nmol/L at the end of winter (10–20 nmol/L higher at the end of summer to allow for a seasonal decrease), along with recommended dietary calcium intakes and weight-bearing or muscle strengthening exercise, are required for optimal bone and muscle function, at least

This year is a great and frightening year. This year is when many things will change in the greatest way. The wars have already begun. Blood is flowing freely. We are not even impressed anymore when the barbarians cut people’s heads off, but we are terribly disturbed or will be terribly disturbed when we won’t be able to get a kosher hamburger or coca cola or just plain food. We will be terribly disturbed when we see great cities falling, destroyed together with their population, Shelo Naida, all disappearing. We will be greatly disturbed to say the least. How will we be able to overcome our feelings? How will we be able to get through all of this because even if we don’t actually see this happening next to us it will be such a shock when we know so many people in those places and even if we don’t know them still it will be a shock. It will be a terrible shock. I don’t think that any generation before ours since the Creation, except for of course Sedom and Ammorah experienced such a thing, such a catastrophe, such a horrible terrible type of destruction. Even in Sedom and Ammorah it wasn’t the size of what’s going to be now. It’s dwarfed next to what’s going to be now. Don’t you understand? There will be plenty of bloodshed here in Eretz Yisroel, Shelo Naida, but it won’t be destroyed. Those that are far from Hashem and don’t have the Zechus to come back to Hashem will be destroyed with the buildings, will be destroyed with the Edomites and the Yishmaelites and all other peoples that don’t accept Hakodosh Boruch Hu as their Creator. So what do we have to do? How can we get through all of this? We have to believe completely that whatever Hashem does is for our good, no matter what. There is only one relationship in this world. It is the person with Hakodosh Boruch Hu. That may sound difficult for you because you have children, you have husbands, you have wives that you love very much. True, but when push comes to shove we are only the children of Hakodosh Boruch Hu, all of us, and we have been in many Gilgulim here in this world and in every Gilgul we might have

had a different husband, a different wife, children not always the same, and we have had different situations that we had to overcome. We are so low and now is our chance finally to pull ourselves up and come back. When we get to the point where we greet Moshiach, Be’ezras Hashem, don’t worry. Every Neshoma will have its true, true Zivig and every child will know its true parents, and we all will know and feel and have no question about the fact that we as a people have only one Father and that is Hakodosh Boruch Hu, and our whole lives, our whole beings will be involved in only one occupation coming closer and closer to Him. In order to come closer to Him we will eventually drop all our flesh and blood characteristics and become totally, totally spiritual and become one with Him. Lately we have seen many tragedies. Tonight one of the Bochurim that was killed in the tragic car accident in Holland was buried. He has a very special name, Langleben, “a long life”. May he have a long life, a life of eternity, he was a Bochur that was working to be close to Hashem as was the other boy that was killed. Both trying their best to be good Jews, trying to do what Hashem wants us to do. Why did they have to die? I can’t answer you why these particular ones had to die, but I can tell you this that the latest tragedies are a message to us that we must, must do Teshuva, and realize what we are doing wrong. When Hashem brings down so many tragedies on Am Yisroel at one time we must stop and think and take stock of our lives of what we may be doing wrong. There was a terrible incident in Crown Heights also, and lately there have been many tragedies all over the Frum Jewish world Shelo Naidah. We must open our eyes and try to figure out where we are going wrong. It’s not a pat on the back for us. It’s a Potsh in the face for us so we will wake up. So please understand that Hashem is not happy. He wants to save His Am, but generally speaking we are going in the wrong direction. Am Yisroel you better wake up! Stop the Machlokes. Stop the Pritzus. Stop the running after the Gashmius

However, here are brief summaries of how some clergy, bioethicists and other scholars from 18 major American religious groups say their traditions might approach this evolving issue. (For an in-depth look at public opinion on radical life extension and related issues, see “Living to 120 and Beyond: Americans’ Views on Aging, Medical Advances and Radical Life Extension.” And for an overview of the scientific research and emerging ethical debate, see “To Count Our Days: The Scientific and Ethical Dimensions of Radical Life Extension.”) Radically extending life “probably wouldn’t be a problem for most” Muslims, according to Aisha Musa, a professor of religion at Colgate University who has written about the issue from a Muslim perspective. According to Musa and others, Muslims believe Allah (God) knows the exact life span of each person from birth to death, or what the Quran calls one’s “term appointed” (Sura 40:67). “Since you can’t really violate God’s plan for you, life extension is alright because it’s part of God’s will,” Musa says. Given this outlook, many Muslims would likely see life-extending technologies as in accordance with God’s plan for humanity. “Whenever there is something new, Muslims believe that it has happened with God’s endorsement,” says Abdulaziz Sachedina, chair of Islamic studies at George Mason University and the author of “Islamic Biomedical Ethics.” �

was illegal at the time. If the clause in fact grants a single power which ties taxes to paying debts and providing for the common defense and general welfare, then the issue changes. Rather than an issue of whether the tax is really a tax, the question becomes whether – even if it is a tax — it meets the purpose language of the text. If so read, regulatory taxes that do not raise revenue to pay government expenses would become constitutionally questionable. In other words, a reading of only the taxing language of the text – I suggest – has resulted in giving Congress regulatory powers it does not possess under a reading of the language as a single power. Incidentally, this kind of careful attention to the text is not “strict” or “narrow” construction. It is textualism of the kind that Justice Scalia writes and practices. As he says, he is not a “strict constructionist.” He attempts to give words in the Constitution their full meaning without either narrowing or broadening their legitimate sense. Another mischaracterization of this clause refers to it as “the General Welfare Clause.” If Congress had a power simply to legislate for the “general welfare,” there would be no need to list any other powers. Under such a construction of the Constitution, the federal government would in no way be a limited one. Few, if any, students of the Constitution, however, would openly claim Congress has such unlimited power. Nevertheless, the spending language in the clause – viewed as distinct from the taxing language –can be distorted to achieve the same unlimited power. As discussed in United States v. Butler (1936), one of the few Supreme Court cases to address the spending language of the clause, the clause has been a matter of dispute nearly since the beginning when Madison and Hamilton disagreed over its interpretation. (The legislation addressed in Butler also involved a tax collected to fund the spending.) Madison contended that the power to tax and spend for the general welfare had to be tied to one of the other enumerated powers. Hamilton, and later Justice Joseph Story, disagreed. They said the power was a separate power, limited only by the requirement that its exercise be for “the general welfare.” Although Butler adopted the Hamilton-Story position, it declared the particular legislation unconstitutional. If the discussion above regarding the use of “To” and “to” means that the clause does not contain two powers, it should also establish that the clause contains

If the discussion above regarding the use of “To” and “to” means that the clause does not contain two powers, it should also establish that the clause contains
a power separate from those which follow, as Hamilton and Story contended. If then Madison was incorrect, does this clause create a power so broad that it makes the enumeration of other powers superfluous? Both Justice Story and the Butler opinion recognize that there must be some limits on spending for the general welfare, but Butler did not elaborate. The Supreme Court has since ignored Butler’s notion that the clause contains any justiciable limits. A year after Butler, the Court upheld the parts of the Social Security Act dealing with unemployment compensation, Steward Machine Co. v. Davis (1937), and old-age benefits, Helvering v. Davis (1937). In Buckley v. Valeo (1976), the Court rejected a challenge to federal spending that financed presidential campaigns, saying “[i]t is for Congress to decide which expenditures will promote the general welfare.” It may be that the term “general welfare” has acquired a meaning that, at least in Congress, extends well beyond the interpretation of Hamilton and Story. For Hamilton who promoted infrastructure spending on canals and bridges, the spending was not for local “pet projects” or so-called “earmarks.” Rather, such spending was to promote economic development generally; it benefitted more than a single state. Underlying the term “general welfare” seemed to be the idea that the federal government could spend on matters that generally benefitted the whole country. It was assumed not only that state governments would tax and spend on projects that benefitted their own state, but that they would not and should not tax and spend on projects to benefit other states. As with the original understanding of the Commerce Clause and other provisions in the Constitution, Congress was given the taxing and spending power for the general welfare in order to do for the states as a whole what none of them individually could do. Congress’s idea of spending for the general welfare has often been used to “persuade” states to accept policy regulations which Congress lacks any power directly to impose. Congress achieves the regulatory end through conditioning receipt of the funds. Certain conditions attached to spending are not only reasonable, but required. Accordingly, the federal government ensures the proper use of funds by imposing accounting and reporting requirements and establishing other standards for spending the money. Congress, however, also manipulates conditions in what amounts to a form of “bait and switch;” it adds new conditions after states have become dependent on federal funding for

The verb, meaning to be an obsessive fan of, came a little later, being first recorded in print in 2008.

the unique needs of your individual customers. Let them do most of the talking, and listen well. Everyone appreciates being noticed and acknowledged. Sounds like Perla left quite an impression on Stoney, as he referred to the service he received as "the best I've had... in my whole life". (side note: what a name!) Perla helped Stoney take advantage of every special they had to offer. She saved him money by informing him of the sale they currently had, and even "threw on some extras" that saves him more cash every month. In order to do that, Perla had to be well-versed in what her company had to offer. Products, services, plans, sales, and specials... If she wasn't, Stoney wouldn't get the best deal available to him, and he'd likely go elsewhere to find it. Lesson learned: Know your stuff. Be an expert. Know what you're selling inside and out. Only then will you be fully prepared to solve the unique problems of your customers. Sometimes, it really is as simple as being friendly. These days, we're accustomed to preparing ourselves for a fight anytime we need to deal with a business. "Nothing ever goes the way it should", we tell ourselves. We expect the worst. We're tense when we walk into a store, on the defensive, bracing ourselves for battle. To encounter the opposite is like a breath of fresh air when we're used to nothing but smog. Chad got that feeling, and Communication Nation is now his "go-to store". Of course, pricing and knowledgeable reps help as well! Lesson learned: Smile, be enthusiastic, have fun. Positivity is infectious. Spread it like the most beautiful virus in the history of the world. Can we have some of that love, CN? The examples of happy customers sharing their great experiences at Communication Nation goes on and on. Perhaps Virginia came up with their slogan after witnessing the customer love CN was dishing out... One thing is for sure, that love doesn't need to be exclusively contained within the states borders. You can learn from the customer service lessons CN is providing.

Film ephemera, the direct form of film promotion, are no longer merely a piece of commercial media; they have been established as a valuable and rare piece of art, beyond the movie screen. We discussed the uniqueness of Japanese film ephemera in the previous blog entries; all films in Japan, including revivals and retrospectives, produce film programs that are of a quality not seen in the United States and other countries. In addition to those programs and unique settings, out of all the other artists in the world, Japanese creators produce very unique styles of cinema art. The gorgeousness of Japanese cinema art is highly praised not only by film fans and collectors, but also film directors themselves the world over. Some of the prominent Japanese creators of film ephemera, and their hidden gems in the Makino Collection, will be brought to light with interesting stories about how these lovely artworks connected Japanese artists and filmmakers across borders, in the next blog entry.

In a new video released by commentator William Saletan at Slate magazine, the author critiques videos released by the activist group Live Action regarding clinics that perform late-term abortions. In those videos, Live Action shows interactions between women whose pregnancies are in the range of 23 completed weeks of gestation. Saletan critiques the editing of the video to omit points he argues show the clinics in a more favorable light, then states, “Here’s the big thing… even if you didn’t administer an injection, that kills the fetus inside the womb, which nearly all of these clinics do, the mere expulsion of the fetus, even at 21, 22, or 23, weeks is, itself, fatal. That fetus is not prepared to survive the womb.” What do established sources say about the survival rates of babies born at various stages of gestation? These rates are a product of many factors, including the child’s weight, whether the mother took drugs to aid lung development with foreknowledge of an extremely premature birth, the proximity of the prematurely delivered baby to a neonatal intensive care unit and the technical skill of its treatment team. The Lozier Institute will publish more on this subject in the future but here is one source, the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development on the outcomes with babies born in the 22-25 week range in terms of gestation (note that these rates acknowledge that a range of disability occurs in babies born at these ages and that the disabilities decline in both incidence and severity as the gestational age at delivery increases).

Economists had expected growth of 0.1 per cent, according to financial markets data firm Refinitiv. The flat reading for the month came as goods-producing industries fell 0.7 per cent for the month. The mining, quarrying, and oil and gas extraction sector pulled back 3.5 per cent in the month, the largest decrease in the sector since May 2016. Oil and gas extraction fell 3.0 per cent in July due in large part to a shutdown of some of Newfoundland and Labrador’s offshore production facilities for a large part of the month as a result

Emperor Agustus gave the city to King Herod, who built an entirely new city between 22 and 10 BC, and called it Caesarea to honor the emperor. Peter baptized the Roman Centurion, Cornelius here, and Philip the Evangelist lived in Caesarea. Paul passed through Caesarea and was imprisoned here 2 years, before being sent to Rome for trial. Jerome states he saw the Hebrew origional of the Gospel of Matthew in Caesarea. Excavations starting in the 1950's have uncovered a large Roman theater, statues, the temple of Augustus, the city wall, and the first known inscription of the name Pontus Pilate. There is also a Crusader fort near by. Today its a tourist attraction and known as Horbat Qesari. Caesarea appears in 15 Bible verses: Acts 8:40, Acts 9:30, Acts 10:1, Acts 10:24, Acts 11:11, Acts 12:19, Acts 18:22, Acts 21:8, Acts 21:16, Acts 23:23, Acts 23:33, Acts 25:1, Acts 25:4, Acts 25:6 and Acts 25:13.

They will travel to Hartland Tuesday and host Howell Friday. Last season, six of Brighton’s seven losses were against Hartland and Howell. Brighton and Pinckney will get an opportunity to play on the Detroit Pistons’ home court at Little Caesars Arena on Monday.

The games are crucial for Brighton’s girls if they are going to stay in the KLAA Gold race. After losing to Novi on Dec. 21, the Bulldogs (6-2) can’t afford to have a bad week. They will travel to Hartland Tuesday and host Howell Friday. Last season, six of Brighton’s seven losses were against Hartland and Howell. Brighton and Pinckney will get an opportunity to play on the Detroit Pistons’ home court at Little Caesars Arena on Monday. The game will follow the Pistons’ 12:30 p.m. game against the Charlotte Hornets. It will be the second game
at a major venue for Brighton’s Matt Buschman, Nolan Ehman, Will Jontz and Justin Klaus, who played football against Belleville at Michigan Stadium in the season opener. ATHLETES TO WATCH Sophomore centers Sophie Dziekan of Brighton and Whitney Sollom of Hartland will begin the second year of their individual rivalry when the Eagles host the Bulldogs on Tuesday. Sollom had the edge last season, averaging 15.5 points as Hartland won both meetings. Dziekan averaged 6.5 points in those games. The 6-foot-2 Dziekan has scored in double figures in all but one of Brighton’s eight games. The 6-4 Sollom is coming off a season-high 17-point performance against Livonia Stevenson.

also amazingly simple to fix if caught early by our hygienists. Our hygienists provide gentle, thorough cleanings that remove the plaque coating that at-home brushing misses. They also provide education and instruction on how to get the maximum benefit from brushing and flossing. Recent studies have shown an association between gum disease and increased risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, low birth weight and diabetes. Because gum disease can have an adverse effect on your over-all health, Dr. Peck strongly suggests getting professional cleanings at least every six months. Gum disease is oftentimes painless at the beginning, so you may not know you have it. Add to that the fact that gum disease is almost impossible for a patient to self-diagnose and it becomes obvious why you need to see us on a regular basis. At each checkup, Dr. Peck and a hygienist will take depth readings of the v-shaped crevice (called a sulcus) between your teeth and gums to diagnose if you have gum disease. Gum disease attacks just below the gum line in the sulcus, where it damages the supporting and connective tissues. As the tissues are damaged, the sulcus develops into a pocket; generally, the deeper the pocket, the more severe the disease. Eventually, pockets can become so deep that your tooth is no longer attached to your gums or jawbone. And, that’s when they fall out. Last but not least, who doesn't love Popeye? I wish I had more time to add in Olive Oil but I just can't pass an opportunity to play across multiple nails. I like the yellow and Blue base combination.

LANSING, MI--(Marketwired - Oct 29, 2014) - Michigan retailers expect better holiday sales this year, their forecasts a blend of optimism and caution, according to the Michigan Retail
Index, a joint project of Michigan Retailers Association (MRA) and the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. While 63 percent project better holiday sales over last year, the average of all retailers' projections comes to +1.6 percent. Nearly a third (28 percent) expect their sales to increase more than 5 percent and 35 percent anticipate their sales will rise 5 percent or less. "Taken as a whole, these individual forecasts reflect the type of year Michigan's retail industry has experienced: overall progress with a bumpy ride along the way," said MRA President and CEO James P. Hallan. "It's no surprise to see retailers projecting better holiday sales, but showing restraint in their projections." Nationally, retail organization economists are forecasting holiday spending to increase about 4 percent. The Michigan Retail Index found improved sales for September. The monthly survey of MRA members showed 53 percent of retailers increased sales over the same month last year, while 35 percent recorded declines and 12 percent reported no change. The results create a seasonally adjusted performance index of 62.1, up sharply from 46.0 in August. A year ago September the Index stood at 52.8. Looking forward, 60 percent of retailers expect sales during October-December to increase over the same period last year, while 18 percent project a decrease and 22 percent no change. That puts the seasonally adjusted outlook index at 73.6, up from 70.6 in August. A year ago September the Index stood at 76.3.

trying to provide is an explanation of the economy so that you can visualize the real solution, because it is a dynamic relationship between everything with no real constant. We are at a tremendous disadvantage because we have grown up thinking in a flat linear world that does not exist. We see the assets rise and fall as measured in money, but we do not take it to the next level. The reason this is true, is because money is itself a language in our mind. Just as Einstein was confronted by the question does he think in word, we also limit ourselves by thinking in money, against which we measure gains, losses, winners and losers, and government only thinks in how much money it can take from the people. The unfortunate misconception about thinking in words created by the press who asked the question, has been a major set-back, I believe, in our evolution process. It may appear that we think in words, but this is not true. You are reading this right now and the words are being submitted to your mind. Individually, they do not form a conception per se. There are some words that stand alone and can spark an entire event that embraces a conception. That is separate. We may have experienced a date with a person where we fell in love. Our mind unconsciously is recording the collateral events; the music in the background, the place, the food and the wine. We are not aware that our mind is recording these events. Yet, we may then hear that music that was playing, and the mind will retrieve that moment based solely upon that sound and bring to the forefront that entire event as a distant memory. I knew the famous painter Norman Rockwell. A banker friend of mine in Heightstown, New Jersey, had an estate where there was a pencil drawing of a young girl in a straw hat with a monogram “NR” and I believe the date 1907. The woman had died. She had always told her children she lived next to Norman Rockwell as kids and when her family moved to New Jersey, he drew this as a departing gift. The banker knew I knew Norman and asked me if I could verify this story and the drawing. I mailed a photograph of it to Norman and then called him on the phone. He kept me on the phone for at least an hour telling me all about her and how he believed she was his first love, He could recall events from his childhood that were amazing. Our minds record everything and some of it is stored so deep, it seems to surface in

Our minds record everything and some of it is stored so deep, it seems to surface in
old age as short-term memory fades. But we store events that can be accessed by vision, sound, smell, and all the senses. The word is not how we think. When we read, we take the words in our mind and translate them into meanings and this will lead to the understanding of a pure concept. Words are merely communication devices. If we can speak more than one simple language, you may still translate in your mind foreign words into the native word. However, you begin to acquire the thinking process of that foreign language and suddenly you conceptualize an understanding for a concept that exists in a foreign word for which there is no direct translation to your native language. We are truly thinking in concepts that the core is the visual and spatial reasoning. If this were not true, then language would not require teaching and would be inherent. Therefore, if we try to visualize relationships in our mind, you will find a clear way of understanding that broadens one’s knowledge. This leads to what I call dynamic thinking that is a break with the linear relationship so common in western thinking. This allows us to see the scale with the assets against the money, but by moving into dynamic thinking processes, we begin to visualize relationships and can see that the only constant is time. ~ Time is the Only Constant ~ What Caesar saw in his mind’s eye, was that the value of assets relative to money fluctuates so much that it is all different depending on the Time. Now we must stop and realize that the value of anything can only be measured in a split second. At any time thereafter, its value will constantly fluctuate. The value we see in a local currency measuring the assets in dollars relative to a moment in time is fixed at that same moment by taking those assets and recasting them in different currencies. Each investor around the world measures profit and losses in terms of money that is his home currency. Hence, what one sees in dollars as rising in value, to another may see a decline if the dollar is declining at a greater percentage than the assets are rising as measured in dollars. Caesar realized that at the time you purchased a house, the lender was willing to loan you $100,000. Now that real estate crashed and burned, it is worth only at best say $50,000. Your mortgage is now more than the property is worth. The bank still demands the $100,000 even though currently it could buy two homes for the same amount of money. Caesar realized there is a

.App.2d 443, 453, 455, 62 Cal.Rptr. 144.) Since defendant prevailed in the habeas corpus proceeding he finds no fault with the trial court's determination or rulings therein. We specifically note, moreover, that in his notice of appeal defendant is clearly appealing only from the order granting probation for 10 years. We accordingly must limit the scope of this appeal to this notice and proceed to review the remaining contention made by defendant which properly falls within its aegis. Adverting to defendant's claim that the court erred in not allowing credit for the time already served under the judgment first imposed following his conviction, we note that defendant urges that the length of the term of probation set by the court should be shortened to reflect the years that he was in prison. In support of this contention defendant relies on section 2900.1, which provides: ‘Where a defendant has served any portion of his sentence under a commitment based upon a judgment which judgment is subsequently declared invalid or which is modified during the term of imprisonment, such time shall be credited upon any subsequent sentence he may receive upon a new commitment for the same criminal act or acts.’ Defendant's reliance on section 2900.1 is misplaced. In the instant case the trial judge in the order granting probation suspended the imposition of sentence and directed, in essence, that such suspension continue for a period of 10 years. (See s 1203.1.) Accordingly, no judgment of conviction was rendered. (In re Phillips, 17 Cal.2d 55, 58, 109 P.2d 344, 132 A.L.R. 644.) Moreover, when a defendant is placed on probation he is placed under the care and supervision of a probation officer. (s 1215.) It is only when the judgment is for imprisonment in the state prison that an order of commitment is made (see ss 1215 and 1216); and a certified copy of the abstract of judgment constitutes a commitment. (In re Larsen, 44 Cal.2d 642, 646, 283 P.2d 1043; s 1213.) When such certified copy is placed in the hands of the warden of the state prison, a valid commitment is issued. (In re Larsen, supra; s 1216.) The cases which have discussed section 2900.1 make it clear that its provisions apply only to situations involving a subsequent sentence to prison. (See In re Levi, 39 Cal.2d 41, 47,

Thatcher, 255 Cal.App.2d 830, 832, 63 Cal.Rptr. 492.)6 We do note, however, that although section 2900.1 is not directly applicable, section 1203.1 is particularly significant. That section provides that in the order granting probation the judge ‘may suspend the imposing, or the execution of the sentence and may direct that such suspension may continue for such period of time not exceeding the maximum possible term of such sentence, * * *.’ At the time defendant committed the offense involved in the present case, and at the time of his conviction therefor, the penalty for the sale of narcotics for a defendant who had not previously been convicted of a narcotic offense was imprisonment in the county jail for not more than one year, or in the state prison from five years to life. (Former Health & Saf.Code, s 11713.) Since defendant's prior narcotic conviction was set aside and his remaining prior convictions were for grand theft, this penalty provision applied to defendant. Accordingly, when defendant was originally sentenced on June 17, 1959, the maximum possible term for which he could have been sentenced was imprisonment in the state prison from five years to life. Such an indeterminate sentence is in legal effect a sentence for a maximum term, i.e., for life. (In re Lee, 177 Cal. 690, 693, 171 P. 958; In re Mills, 55 Cal.2d 646, 653—654, 12 Cal.Rptr. 483, 361 P.2d 15; In re Schoengarth, 66 Cal.2d 295, 302, 57 Cal.Rptr. 600, 425 P.2d 200.) Since the court had the power to suspend the imposition of the sentence for the maximum term of the life sentence, it was empowered under section 1203.1 to place defendant on probation for life. Accordingly, although defendant had served in excess of

The election results a few days later: Bachmann at 46 percent, Tinklenberg at 43 percent, and Anderson at 10 percent. Given the closeness with which the late October 2008 SurveyUSA poll tracked that November’s vote, there are some interesting differences between that sample and the new July 2010 survey. … In the October 2008 survey, 74 percent identified with one of the two major political parties: 41 percent Republican and 33 percent Democrat. In the July 2010 survey, just 64 percent identified with the major parties: 36 percent Republican and 28 percent Democrat. The percentage of self-identified independents was just 23 percent in the October ‘08 survey and 31 percent in July ‘10. The decline in identification with both major parties — and the accompanying rise in identification as a political independent — should come as no surprise for those tracking the dissatisfaction among Americans with both Congressional Democrats and Republicans in the extremely partisan 111th Congress. The big difference in 2010, however, is that Bachmann is receiving the support of 46 percent of independents, compared to just 35 percent in the late October 2008 survey. … It should be noted there were several demographic variables which demonstrated identical or virtually identical sampling in the two surveys. For example: Guns: 57 percent of each poll’s voters were gun owners Religion: 51 percent were regular attendees of church services in both surveys Ideology: In the 2008 poll, 39 percent identified as conservatives, with 44 percent moderate, and 14 percent liberal.

Just 4% of voters remain undecided.] The table below reports data from the three available surveys of the U.S. House race conducted thus far during the 2010 election cycle in Minnesota’s 6th Congressional District. KSTP/SurveyUSA (Sept. 13-15) 49 40 6 1 4 Comparison of the July and September 2010 poll results shows that Independence Party nominee Bob Anderson’s numbers have remained static at 6 percent, while both Republican nominee Michele Bachmann and DFL nominee Tarryl Clark have gained one point, which is statistically meaningless. The internals of the poll show the Anderson is attracting 4 percent of the Republican vote, 4 percent of the Democratic vote, and 11 percent of the Independent vote, while Immelman gets 1 percent of the Republican vote, 0 (zero) percent of the Democratic vote, and 2 percent of the Independent vote (however, considering the poll’s margin of sampling error of ± 4.1%, Immelman’s numbers are essentially statistical noise). In short, there is no compelling evidence that Anderson (6%) or Immelman (1%) is attracting significant support from respondents who might otherwise vote for Clark (40%), who polled at 37 percent in the December 2009 Public Policy poll, which did not include Anderson or Immelman as an option. In contrast, Bachmann (49%) has lost ground since Anderson and Immelman joined the race, having polled 55 percent in the December 2009 Public Policy Polling survey. In summary, with less than seven weeks to go before Election Day, the September KSTP/SurveyUSA poll results are unchanged from the results eight weeks earlier in July. The table below is provided for the purpose of comparing the candidates’ current poll standings with the state of the 6th District race in the 2008 election cycle. Bachmann Tinklenberg Anderson Undecided Public Opinion Strategies (Oct. 12-13) 44 33 8 — KSTP/SurveyUSA (Oct. 20-21) 44 47 6 2 MPR/UofM (Oct. 21-23) 43 45 5 7 Bachmann is polling about 5 percentage points better than she did around this time in 2008, prior to her catastrophic interview with Chris Matthews on MSNBC “Hardball” (49% now compared with 44% in 2008).

Ann says it started to happen in the powhiri when the women welcomed the visitors. The exchange of dialogue and song was settling for both groups. So what were the greatest challenges? For the prisoners, Ann says, the biggest thing was coming to terms with the personal demands that the series made in opening them up to talk about their lives in front of cameras, week after week. “The tutors and crew were exceptional in their response to the challenges and it was a revelation to the women that they weren’t being judged. As a result, they were able to relax more as the weeks went by.” “A man who dares to dream” This was due in part, she says, to the vision of Director Julian Arahanga whom Ann describes as “a man who dares to dream”. His philosophy, she says, “is that everyone deserves to be considered; that everyone has the potential to change, to be heard and to be supported”. Julian was extremely well-supported by the producer, Maramena Roderick, and the rest of the crew, she adds. The music programme was designed by musician and teacher Evan Rhys Davies, who taught songwriting over 18 weeks in Spring Hill Corrections Facility in 2009 and recorded an album of the men’s songs, called If These Walls Could Speak. Evan also became involved in Songs From the inside as a mentor for the musicians. Songs that were developed in the classes were taken back to the wings, where the women continued to sing and share what they had learned with the other prisoners. “I don’t think the women had any idea of the impact the series would have on communities when it was screened,” Ann says. “Many viewers watching the programme discovered that the women here are real people. The series began to demystify Arohata and help people to understand the Department’s goals to support women to be rehabilitated and to reintegrate back into the community.

After the programme, they had goals, a structure and an outcome that they could take out to their families and communities. “Personally, I really enjoyed seeing the women achieve new skills and grow in confidence. I also learned a lot about our prison and the community, and the impact that the positive community response has had on the women. “The women who are now released tell me that people approach them in the street, and say, ‘Oh, you’re that girl we saw on TV.

Prerequisites to be an Anesthesiologist Monthly Salary of Transplant Surgeons The Advantages of Being a Neurologist Reproductive Endocrinologist Vs. OB/GYN Every medical specialty plays a role in overall human health, but some have a more dramatic impact than others. For example, neurological surgeons treat conditions of the brain and nervous system that can have subtle and far-reaching effects. These might include problems of behavior and perception in some patients, and mobility issues or debilitating pain in others. Correcting these conditions surgically often has an immediate and dramatic impact on the patient's quality of life. A neurosurgeon's areas of responsibility include the brain and its blood vessels, the spine and central nervous system, and the peripheral nervous system that transmits sensation from extremities to the brain. It includes the treatment of strokes and brain tumors, epilepsy and Parkinson's disease, chronic back pain and even carpal tunnel syndrome. Neurological conditions can cause patients to lose their eyesight, hearing or balance, or impair their dexterity and use of their limbs. Aside from treating such fundamental conditions, neurological surgery is also an important discipline because of its position on the leading edge of modern surgery. Neurological surgery is a specialty with a strong scientific and research component. As researchers learn more about the brain's function through magnetic resonance imaging, CT scans and other advances, neurosurgeons respond by developing new techniques to treat its disorders. Since the late 20th century minimally invasive surgeries using miniature instruments have become commonplace, and neurosurgeons use radical approaches such as skull-base surgeries to reach and remove previously in

, Lee Kuan Yew. “Tolerance and the rights of others are legitimate aims for any state to pursue. However, the criminalization of a broad range of legitimate, even if offensive, expression is not the right tool for this purpose, and may well have the opposite effect,” the UN expert stressed. “International human rights law allows only serious and extreme instances of incitement to hatred to be prohibited as criminal offences, not other forms of expression, even if they are offensive, disturbing or shocking.” The trial of the teenage blogger is one of several cases in Singapore that reflect a widening crackdown not only on controversial expression but also political criticism and dissent, Mr. Kaye noted. In May this year, Teo Soh Lung, a human rights lawyer, and Roy Ngerng, a blogger, were investigated for allegedly breaching the Parliamentary Elections Act for posts on their private Facebook pages that discussed government transparency and accountability. The Act prohibits election campaigning in the last 24 hours prior to elections, yet explicitly exempts the online expression of a private individual’s political views. This was the first time individuals were investigated under such provisions. Despite the use of the Parliamentary Elections Act to investigate, search and confiscate personal belongings of Teo Soh Lung and Roy Ngerng, to date no charges have been brought against them. “Threats of criminal action and lawsuits contribute to a culture of self-censorship, and hinder the development of an open and pluralistic environment where all forms of ideas and opinions should be debated and rebutted openly,” the UN expert highlighted. “States are under an obligation not only to respect and protect, but also to promote freedom of expression,” he emphasized. “Increased criminalization of expression is in breach of this obligation.” Mr. David Kaye (USA) was appointed as Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of opinion and expression in August 2014 by the United Nations Human Rights Council. As Special Rapporteur, Mr. Kaye is part of what is known as the Special Procedures of the Human Rights Council. Special Procedures, the largest body of independent experts in the UN Human Rights system, is the general name of the Council’s independent fact-finding and monitoring mechanisms that address either specific country situations or thematic issues in all parts of the world.

picture on most of the latest TV. You know that the next step change is 8K, and it's already here. With the Samsung TV QLED 8K amazing, here is. The wait is over. So, should you buy one, and if so, why? 1. The most detailed and realistic picture ever You have never seen anything like it. Where and HD took us all surprising when we reached 4K and achieved even more persuasive and attractive results, 8K goes far further. This decision is four times 4K because it has twice the number of pixels vertically and vertically. This means that it is 16 times the decision of Full HD. When so many pixels, over 33 million, since you ask, it means that you can sit closer to the TV without seeing the dot dots that make up the image. That does an experience that is completely instinctive, taking more visually and visually impaired. 2. Upscaling means you can see the benefits now But no programs are made in 8K, you might say. True, and that would be a problem but for the fact that this television can contain quite unprecedented content. It can take 4K content, or even HD programming, upscale to 8K. That is because it uses the learning of machines and artificial information to analyze images, improve the details and raise the edges up to 8K. And it can do this while reducing any image noise. Colors look bad and rich, while still realistic and loyal. This is a game changer. 3. It has an intelligent TV Not just smart TV, this is intelligent, thanks to the Samsung Quantum Processor 8K super-powerful built in. It responds to the brightness of light in the room and responds automatically, so it is never too big or overcrowded. The processor is able to run a Samsung voice assistant, so you can talk to your TV by pressing the microphone button on the remote control-premium control. Ask him to choose a channel, recommend something you like to like or launch an app like YouTube. 4. The Samsung QLED 8K TV can combine your home continuously That's because he has something of the name Ambient Mode, as long as you have an Android or IOS compatible device and your wall texture is not unusual using glossy to fit around. This does by measuring the light in the room and modifying the brightness of the TV accordingly, it can even subtle effects when you do not watch programs. So, with the press button, you can choose what

and nine of 10. The team won a total of 14 games under John Fox from 2015-17. The Bears wildly exceeded expectations, and for that, Nagy and general manager Ryan Pace need to be commended. They just couldn't keep it going in the playoffs as Cody Parkey once again hit an upright to keep the Bears from advancing. Season in review: Nagy’s first order of business was to fix the offense. The Bears had been dreadful offensively in the Fox era, but Nagy brought the Andy Reid system with him from Kansas City, and the results in year one were encouraging. The Bears went out in the offseason and assembled a better supporting cast (Allen Robinson, Trey Burton, Taylor Gabriel and Anthony Miller) for quarterback Mitchell Trubisky, who had a mediocre rookie year in 2017. But under Nagy, Trubisky improved and finished the regular season with 3,223 passing yards, 24 touchdowns, 12 interceptions and a passer rating of 95.4. Chicago’s real strength, however, was its defense. The acquisition of linebacker Khalil Mack from the Oakland Raiders turned an already good Bears defense into a great defense. The Bears led the NFL in virtually every statistical category. They took firm control of the NFC North in the middle of November and never looked back. Chicago had five players voted to the Pro Bowl (Eddie Jackson, Akiem Hicks, Tarik Cohen, Kyle Fuller and Mack) and became the first Bears team to go from worst to first since 2005. Future of defensive coordinator Vic Fangio: Fangio is expected to interview for head coach openings in Denver and Miami, and perhaps others, as early as Monday. Fangio is the architect of the Bears’ 3-4 defense, and losing him would be tough. The Bears could opt to replace Fangio with respected secondary coach Ed Donatell, but Chicago’s best-case scenario is for Fangio to return for a fifth season. Backfield in motion: Running back Jordan Howard finished the regular season on a high note, but questions remain as to whether Howard is a long-term fit in Nagy’s offense. At some point, Howard is going to want a new contract. Are the Bears prepared to pay him? Chicago could look to trade Howard and recoup a draft pick. The Bears probably need to make a decision on Howard in the offseason. Howard is entering the final year of his original rookie deal. Kicking quandary: The Bears guaranteed Parkey $

9 million last offseason, but Parkey missed 10 total kicks (seven field goals, three extra points) during the regular season, and he missed the game-winner in the playoff loss to the Eagles. Chicago’s kicking game has to improve in 2019. Interestingly, the Bears’ all-time leading scorer, Robbie Gould, will be a free agent. There’s no guarantee Gould re-signs with San Francisco, even though he had two terrific years for the 49ers: Gould made 72 of 75 field goal attempts from 2017-18.

(Trinidad Express) Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Dookeran has said the Trinidad and Tobago Government was “deeply concerned” over the recent re-igniting of the issue of the deportation of Dominican Republic citizens of Haitian descent. He said the Government had taken a strong stance on this matter on the past. “We have taken a strong position on the human rights aspect of that decision. We recognise that dialogue between the Dominican Republic and Haiti had taken place and that there was a process in place for what they referred to as the regularisation of those citizens. He said: “It now it appears that the situation has not gone according to the plan. So what we are doing is assessing the current situation. “I have been in contact with our ambassador to the Dominican Republic, who is stationed in Jamaica and I have been also in touch with our officials. We are analysing this with a view to once more, take a diplomatic initiative on a bilateral level. He he had not yet seen the agenda. Dookeran said beyond these initiatives, the Government would also want to explore whether good faith was being adhered to in the agreement that had been arrived at between the Dominican Republic and Haiti. “We would decide what we should propose

Such a partial faith as this is destructive to the very being of faith at all.

The man, it is said in the Bible, who believes not the record that God hath given of His Son, makes Him a liar; and the man who believes not the record that God hath given of the necessity of repentance and a new life, makes God a liar; and yet these are the men whom our antagonists would refer to as men having the faith of mere belief, and nothing more, and who undoubtedly fall short of salvation, trying thus to prove that the faith which makes out our salvation, or the saving faith of the New Testament, is belief and something more.

It is belief in the testimony of God, and, of course, belief in the truth of all which is included within the limits of that testimony. There can be no real faith in any saying of the Bible, resting on the ground that God is the author of that book, which does not extend to all its sayings, and does not consent to the truth of all. If in virtue of faith you reckon it a faithful saying, that God hath set forth His Son to be a propitiation for the sins of the world; you will also, and in virtue of the same principle, reckon it a faithful saying, that God hath set Him forth an example that we should walk in His steps. Faith is represented by the orthodox as the channel through which the righteousness of Christ passes, as it were, into contact with the soul, and invests the whole man with the garment of acceptance.Thomas Chalmers, “Institutes of Theology,” in Select Works of Thomas Chalmers, (Edinburgh: Thomas Constable and Co, 1854), 8:14. 44) It is needless to expatiate on the power of those terms in which the overtures of the gospel are framed, and by which, without the nomination of a single individual, each individual may hold them as pointedly and specifically addressed to himself–giving them at once a general diffusion among all, and a personal direction to every. Let me only once more enumerate them. All–“Look unto me, all ye ends of the earth, and

make it an effective process, and facilitating the process, but relying on other people who have more people allocated for contact in between meeting discussion. It is not entirely satisfactory, but in the case of the most recent one it went extremely well. I have to give up a little of my own sense of control. A typical case would be contacting the parties individually and asking, "What are your needs and concerns? What sort of information do you need to participate effectively?" I would still do that if there is a high level of conflict. In terms of preparing myself, it helps to have been doing this for a while because there are fewer and fewer issues that are new to us. One example of this was, we started a year ago and we finished last fall, around impact of new power plants and air quality. Even though we met with the governing agency ahead of time, we went to the web site, and read information we were not going to be able to catch up with people that knew the intimacies of the air regulations, which are very complex. We end up depending on the parties to provide the knowledge base and we are sort or the naive ear, asking naive questions, not always on purpose, but simply because we don't understand. I am not sure I answered that one satisfactorily to myself. I can never have enough information and often feel that I should have had more information to be able to be more effective at doing what I do. So actual substantive information about whatever the topic is? A: Yes, you know if it is an air quality regulation, or if it is a new EPA program, like emissions trading. I just want to have sufficient understanding of that to ask the right questions and base line of information. I am much more comfortable with that and I think I do a better job when I have that. I don't need to be an expert, you know being an expert can get in the way to some degree. People look at you as an expert, and you impose your own opinions. There is a new term that we came up with during the trainings, the "beginners mind", it is more of a Zen type of term. Even if you have experience with it try to approach it with a beginners mind, have a lot left to learn. Which is always the case in any situation that we get into. The preparation tends to be more substantive, let me catch up on the material. Q: What kind of qualities do you think people doing your kind of work need

The preparation tends to be more substantive, let me catch up on the material. Q: What kind of qualities do you think people doing your kind of work need
to have? A: That is interesting. I wrote something several years ago with some colleagues about training and educating environmental mediators, and we have a whole list of qualities in there, and SPIDER came out with a list of qualifications too. I probably would have to look at those to refresh my memory on that. I think a commitment to working with people and supporting people is probably the most important one. I see people that are really good and they do have that. Some sort of sense of strategic thinking is important. Being able to think through what kind of outcomes you want and work your way backwards. Being able to work with a wide variety of people, because you see people from all sorts of perspectives, backgrounds, particularly our work, because we work with either very urban or very rural communities, and at the very grass roots neighborhood level up to federal agencies type of work. Another important quality is the ability to work with very diverse groups of people. I am sure it has always been important, but increasingly cultural competency is significant, and not only the obvious categories of race and ethnicity, but I think class too. In Virginia, there are significant class differences that you need to be able to work in between. The other sort of competencies, or requirements for people are that you need to have the facilitation skills, and experience. I think also life experience, with life experience comes some of the knowledge, of course some people get life experience but they don't learn form it, but hopefully you are learning from that. Sorry to use this term, but I am a big believer in the power of humility. I have a lot of confidence that I can approach problems in ways that are going to be effective or give the best chance at being effective, but part of that is a sense of humility, that's because I know that I need to learn from the people that are there on the ground. It's not me coming in and saying, "here is how you are going to do this," but it's me coming in and asking the questions to get people to look at the things that they need to appropriately. I think that there does have to be some substantive knowledge, and substantive knowledge does not just mean technical expertise, but the institutional arena in which the problem is being addressed. For example may be how decisions are made in the local government. Who are the advocates within this institutional arena? What sort of laws are there that effect this? What sort of regulations are there that effect that? That's a whole area

.1 yards per carry, with just four touchdowns on 214 carries. He did catch 58 passes for 321 yards, but he scored no touchdowns. He'll be looking to bounce back next season. Dennis Pitta was the leading receiver for Baltimore, catching eight passes for 63 yards. Corey Graham made a great play, on an underthrown ball, when he picked off the first play of the game. Jimmy Smith picked off Dalton in the end zone, on a terribly thrown pass to A.J. Green running a fade. The Ravens defense played better as the season went on, but the offense couldn't catch up this year, and it made games far too difficult. The Bengals don't normally play well in big games, but they played a great game in Week 17. They gave themselves a shot at the number two seed, although had they won a couple of weeks ago they wouldn't have even had to worry about it. The Patriots beat Buffalo and are the second seed in the AFC, but Cincinnati will be going into the playoffs on a high note, which should bode well for them. Dalton threw four picks, and they all came on terrible passes, but he accounted for three of the Bengals' touchdowns, throwing two, and running one in on a QB Sneak. He completed 21 of 36 passes for 281 yards, and ends an up and down season in which he threw the ball a ridiculous 586 times and completed 363 for 4,296 yards and 33 touchdowns, but he also threw 20 interceptions, with five games of multiple interceptions. A.J. Green scored his one touchdown on a 53 yard reception, after he ran past Matt Elam and was wide open when Dalton's pass got to him. Green only had 61 yards on his four catches, but it was at the end of a season in which he made the Pro Bowl and caught 98 passes for 1426 yards and 11 touchdowns. Marvin Jones came up huge this season and has made some crazy catches, including his touchdown in the second quarter. With tight coverage by Lardarius Webb, Jones dove in the end zone and pulled the ball in with one hand and bobbled it, but held on when his other hand came over and he rolled under the ball. Jones went from relative unknown when the year started, to catching 10 touchdown passes and 712 yards on 51 total receptions. BenJarvus Green-Ellis had a good game on the ground, gaining 66 yards on 11 carries, and running hard all game. Giovani Bernard has been exciting and explosive,

but Green-Ellis has set the tone in the running game all season, carrying 220 times with seven touchdowns, although he only gained 756 yards for the year. Cincinnati's defense has been the backbone of this team all year. The Ravens only scored 17 points, against a defense that only allowed 19.1 points per game for the season. The Bengals had 43 sacks and 20 interceptions, and the defense was led by a player who went undrafted in 2012 because of "character concerns", and now calls plays from the outside linebacker position and Vontaze Burfict led the NFL in tackles with 171, recorded three sacks and three takeaways, while scoring a defensive touchdown. Now they go into the playoffs with a good chance of winning their first playoff game in 23 years. Jacksonville Jaguars 10 - Indianapolis Colts 30 The Jaguars finished a lackluster season with a shoddy performance against the AFC South winner. Maurice Jones-Drew, the ever reliable running back, missed most of last season with an ankle injury, and calling this season a down year, would be an understatement. He carried the ball 234 times this season, gaining only 803 yards, and scoring five touchdowns. He only rushed for 39 yards in the final game of the year, but he did catch five passes for 51 yards. Jones-Drew didn't get a lot of help from the rest of the team, and was supposed to be the focal point of the offense, especially without top wide receiver Justin Blackmon, but his offensive line was mediocre for most of the season, and Jones-Drew didn't have a lot of holes to run through. Chad Henne had an average year for Jacksonville, after replacing incumbent starter, Blaine Gabbert, in Week 7. Against Indianapolis he threw the ball 51 times, which should be unheard of for a Jaguars team with a lack of talent at receiver, bur it was the fifth time in the season that Henne attempted more than 40 passes. He completed 30 of those attempts, for 331 yards, threw a touchdown and an interception. Henne threw more interceptions than touchdowns this season, 14 picks and 13 touchdowns, but he completed 60 percent of his passes. Jacksonville's top two receivers missed time this season, Blackmon was suspended indefinitely, after playing in just four games because he was suspended for the first four games of the year, because he violated the league's substance abuse policy again, and will have to apply for reinstatement.

Crane et al. [25] followed the die-off of indicator organisms in surface applied poultry manure and indicated that the rate of manure application had no influence on bacterial survival and this conformed to our study. The average diurnal ambient temperature in Ouagadougou varied from 36˚C to 47.2˚C, these temperatures could reduce the concentration of pathogens in an improperly treated compost amended to the soil as fertilizer to minimise the serious health risk as previously observed [26]. Temperature and humidity change over time due to strong sunlight under field conditions. Therefore, care should be taken in interpreting our results with field studies. The study simulated the conditions in real situations with the measured temperature in the soil. The result of the change in concentration and annual risk of Salmonella in the soil was estimated. Figure 6 and Figure 7 shows the change in Salmonella concentration and annual risk of infection. The change in concentration and annual risk after 24 h of post-treatment were estimated. The change in concentration after the 24 h for the bottom, middle and top were 2.8 × 105, 6.37 × 106 and 4.03 × 10−15 respectively. Amending of the compost will be done at this point. An assumption of the dilution of compost to the soil ratio was 0.01. The change in concentration at this dilution for the bottom, middle and top soil were 2.8 × 103, 6.37 × 104 and 4.03 × 10−17 respectively. The annual risk of infection at this point was 1 for the top, and bottom and safe level at the top. The bottom and middle temperatures achieved a safe level at 147.5 h with risk values of 1.2 × 10−4 and 1.05 × 10−4 pppy respectively. The top temperature distribution achieved a safe level after the 24 h. Figure 6. Change in concentration of Salmonella at different depth in the soil. Figure 7. Annual risk of Salmonella at different depth in the soil. Inactivation of Enterococcus (pathogenic bacteria) in the soil with high temperature under different compost application rates was tried in the laboratory test. As a result, 1) the inactivation rates of Enterococcus in clay soils were 0.015 - 0.027 h−1, 0.246 - 0.322 h−1, 0.397 - 0.571 h−1 for 30˚C, 40˚C and 50˚C, respectively.

Sandy loam soils were 0.056 - 0.130 h−1, 0.348 - 0.447 h−1 and 0.475 - 0.630 h−1 for 30˚C, 40˚C and 50˚C, respectively. 2) Inactivation rates of Enterococcus in soils amended with compost from the composting toilet depended on temperature and soil type, but not on the compost to soil ratios. This study would be a useful information for researchers and farmers to understand the behaviour of pathogenic bacteria in the sandy loam and clay soils. The experimental conditions in this study are different from the real field situation because temperature and humidity change over time due to strong sunlight under field conditions. Therefore, care must be taken when interpreting the results of this study to estimate the die-off rates in real field conditions. 3) Compost after 24 h of post-treatment period amended to the soil would be safe in 6 days. Further research is required to understand the behaviour of pathogenic bacteria in field conditions of a hot semi-arid climate. This study succeeded to evaluate the risk of pathogens with initial biological parameters and operational conditions. Cite this paper: Darimani, H. and Ito, R.

Pennebaker may have gone on to win an Oscar and take his customised on-the-shoulder camera to the White House, but the filmmaker will forever be the man who got the famously elusive Dylan to let him – and us – in. Within Don’t Look Back, though, lies an even more extraordinary legacy: the origins of the music video. Dylan’s now-iconic throwing away of lyric-laden cue cards accompanied Subterranean Homesick Blues, the lead single from Bringing It All Back Home – the 1965 album with which Dylan went electric. It didn’t gain much traction at the time, but five decades later and we are still hearing, and seeing, its influence in pop culture on an almost daily basis. The birth of the music video is intrinsically linked to the Eighties; MTV and Gen X, Bonnie Tyler tangled up in gauzy curtains and big hair. But the history is less clean-cut than that. Short films had been made to accompany songs when the talkies turned up in the Twenties. Tony Bennett claims he created “the first music video” by setting film of him walking along the Serpentine to his recording of Stranger in Paradise in 1956. Within a decade, The Beatles were being pushed in front of cameras to make “promotional videos” which could play when they couldn’t while making a fuss of their latest single at the same time. Meanwhile, though, new technology in the bistros and bars of France was actively creating space for music videos. The Scopitone, a visual jukebox that allowed users to watch a video as well as listen to its accompanying song for a few Francs, became a phenomenon in Europe as

Platonism also influenced both Eastern and Western mysticism. Meanwhile, Platonism influenced various philosophers. While Aristotle became more influential than Plato in the 13th century, St. Thomas Aquinas's philosophy was still in certain respects fundamentally Platonic. With the Renaissance, scholars became more interested in Plato himself. In 16th, 17th century, and 19th century England, Plato's ideas influenced many religious thinkers.

Modern Platonism Apart from historical Platonism originating from thinkers such as Plato himself, Numenius, Plotinus, Augustine and Proclus, we may wish to consider the theory of abstract objects in the modern sense. Platonism is the view that there exist such things as abstract objects — where an abstract object is an object that does not exist in space or time and which is therefore entirely non-physical and non-mental. Platonism in this sense is a contemporary view. This modern Platonism (sometimes rendered "platonism," with a lower-case p, to distinguish it from the ancient schools) has been endorsed in one way or another at one time or another by numerous philosophers (most of whom taking a particular interest in the philosophy and foundations of logic and mathematics), including Bernard Bolzano, Gottlob Frege, Edmund Husserl, Bertrand Russell, Alonzo Church, Kurt Gödel, W.V.

After trying to intimidate protesters into abstaining from these demonstrations with blackmail and harassment, the authorities in Moscow, St Petersburg and elsewhere have punished hundreds of those who turned up with beatings and arrests,” said Denis Krivosheev, Deputy Director for Europe and Central Asia at Amnesty International. “The Russian authorities’ stranglehold on freedom of expression grows tighter by the day. Peaceful protest is a fundamental human right, not a privilege to be bestowed or refused on a whim. We are calling for all peaceful protesters swept up in these arrests to be immediately freed, and the right to hold peaceful rallies fully and genuinely respected.” Public rallies protesting against corruption took place in cities and towns across Russia today. Amnesty International is able to confirm dozens of arrests in Moscow, and takes note of reports of numerous arrests by credible independent monitors in St Petersburg, Vladivostok, Kaliningrad, Sochi, Tula, Lipetsk and Blagoveschensk. Amnesty International spoke to an eyewitness who described scenes of mass beatings by police in Moscow, as well as police cordons obstructing people’s movement and vehicles lined up ready to arrest protesters. In Russia public assembly requires the authorities’ express permission, which is often withheld on arbitrary grounds. Protesters in Moscow were given permission to rally on Sakharov Prospect, a main street in the city. However, the organizers were unable to hire any stage or PA equipment for the protest. They blamed this on intimidation of equipment hire companies by the authorities. The protest leader and anti-corruption campaigner Aleksei Navalny called on protesters to rally instead at an area in the center of Moscow which had been designated for public holiday celebrations. The authorities characterized this move as a provocation and a call to unlawful assembly. Mass arrests followed on the day of the rally. Navalny was arrested in the morning, as he was leaving the block of

In 1999, Twenty-4 launched – a rectangular, wear-everyday accessory that proved (and still is) a massive hit.

The Twenty-4 Automatic is a circular watch with an automatic movement. Thierry Stern, Patek president, concedes that its catalyst came from outside of the firm. “I’ve travelled the world, and so have my commercial teams, and everyone has been asking for a dedicated automatic watch for women,” he says. “And so, this is our answer.” Available in steel or rose gold, all with a 36mm case and diamond set-bezel, its proportions and form were dictated by the mechanics inside. “We built the case around the movement, which is one of the thinnest and most accurate,” says Stern, before acknowledging it was his wife, Sandrine Stern, Patek head of creation, who was the driving force behind the aesthetics. “I’m humble enough to know I can’t design a ladies’ watch,” he adds. “And Sandrine was tough, we got through at least 40 prototypes before we settled on this final design.” Patek’s customary perfectionism explains what sounded like a laborious process; the integration of the bracelet on to the bezel proved challenging, as did finessing the dial design to create a modern-looking watch.

Books/Poetry ArtsBoston Calendar State Legislators Could Provide More Arts Funding, But With Eyebrow-Raising Restrictions Cintia Lopez The Massachusetts State House. (Jesse Costa/WBUR) The annual push from arts advocates for increased funding has grown more complicated this year as state legislators debate whether to impose new, eyebrow-raising restrictions on the state agency that manages cultural funds. At stake is whether the Massachusetts Cultural Council (MCC) can use state money for travel costs and continue to provide grants for individual artists — longtime recipients of the agency's past investments. Both the House and the Senate have proposed increases to the MCC — a $533,000 increase from the House and a $2 million jump from the Senate — but the increases come with the restrictive caveats. The debate marks a much more layered process than prior years, when the conversation around arts funding focused mostly on whether the state could afford an increase or not. Last year, state legislators approved a $2 million increase to the MCC, the first increase for arts funding in four years. But the possibility of another $2 million increase this year has been mired by a more scrutinizing eye from state legislators. It began when the House budget specified that the MCC could not use funds "for travel costs." The unusual stipulation stemmed from a series of Boston Herald stories and opinion pieces that criticized the MCC's conference travel in the latest fiscal year — a total of less than $13,000 for a statewide agency that manages a $16 million budget. The proposed sanctions regarding travel would limit the organization's employees from supporting cultural organizations outside of Boston — one of the organization's most fundamental tasks, said MCC Executive Director Anita Walker. “Our team is out in every community every single day. And we have so many communities in Massachusetts that are eager to revitalize their downtowns and make wonderful exciting places for the people. ... It would be a devastating loss if we were forbidden from leaving Boston.” Additionally, the restriction would prohibit the MCC from helping other communities in Massachusetts establish new cultural districts, said Walker. "We have experts in urban planning and community development who are walking through rural communities,

While I’m thinking about Star Wars, nothing but Star Wars (if they could bar wars, why don’t they?): one of the things the internet’s decided they just will not stand for is the way that the
film is being marketed. And by “the internet,” I of course mean maybe a couple hundred people who care enough to write blog posts and start a #WheresRey hashtag. Don’t mistake this post for a “I saw this thing on Twitter and am therefore now responding to the cultural zeitgeist,” but instead a comment on an a couple aspects of this movie and its promotional campaign that I thought were interesting. The outrage I’m talking about [note: not actually outrage] is best summed up in this post by Mike Adamick (which I saw via my friend Chris Hockabout on Facebook): “Rey is not a role model for little girls.” Adamick makes a great point and he does it well: Do you think in their play time that girls don’t fly the Falcon? That they don’t beat up jerks with their staffs? Or tinker, engineer, fly, run, jump, call lightsabers, become the chosen one, and save the universe? No, Rey is not the perfect role model for little girls. She’s a role model for boys. Indeed, she’s the perfect role model for little boys, and a whole bunch of supposedly grown ass men as well. She’s the role model they need. Frankly, she’s the role model our expanding universe of epic sexist bullshittery needs. And yes, absolutely. The takeaway from The Force Awakens as a blockbuster movie and an enormous entertainment and merchandising franchise isn’t that little girls finally have their hero. It’s that we finally have our hero. It’s a continued message to girls (who already get it) and boys and all the emasculated man-children complaining about SJWs and the rest of us relatively well-adjusted man-children who still tend to think in terms of white men being “the default hero.” It’s a rejection of the idea that women (and black people, and Latinos, and Asians, and Wookiees) need a hero for them. Frankly, we should be kind of ashamed that in 2015 it’s still something we take notice of. Any doubts that non-white-male heroes could be universally appealing should’ve been long dispelled by Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Blacula. But my

the three persons), "persons", and "substance". The Son is distinct from the Father, and the Spirit from both the Father and the Son (Adv. Praxeam, xxv). "These three are one substance, not one person; and it is said, 'I and my Father are one' in respect not of the singularity of number but the unity of the substance." The very names "Father" and "Son" indicate the distinction of personality. The Father is one, the Son is another, and the Spirit is another ("dico alium esse patrem et alium filium et alium spiritum" Adv. Praxeam, ix), and yet in defending the unity of God, he says the Son is not other ("alius a patre filius non est", Adv. Prax. 18). He says that all things of the Father belong also to the Son, including his names, such as Almighty God, Most High, Lord of Hosts, or King of Israel. Yet even though Scripture talks about two gods and we say the Son is God when referred to by himself, this does not make two gods, but one, because the Son is entitled to be called God "from the unity of the Father". The question whether the Son was coeternal with the Father Tertullian does not set forth in full clarity; and though he did not fully state the doctrine of the immanence of the Trinity, he went a long distance in the way of approach to it. The Catholic Encyclopedia comments that for Tertullian, "There was a time when there was no Son and no sin, when God was neither Father nor Judge." Similarly J.N.D. Kelly has stated: "Tertullian followed the Apologists in dating His 'perfect generation' from His extrapolation for the work of creation; prior to that moment God could not strictly be said to have had a Son, while after it the term 'Father', which for earlier theologians generally connoted God as author of reality, began to acquire the specialized meaning of Father and Son.". As regards the subjects of subordination of the Son to the Father, the New Catholic Encyclopedia has commented: "In not a few areas of theology, Tertullian’s views are, of course, completely unacceptable. Thus, for example, his teaching on the Trinity reveals a subordination of Son to Father that in the later crass form of Arianism the

Thus, for example, his teaching on the Trinity reveals a subordination of Son to Father that in the later crass form of Arianism the
Church rejected as heretical." In soteriology, Tertullian does not dogmatize; he prefers to keep silence at the mystery of the cross (De Patientia, iii). The sufferings of Christ's life as well as of the crucifixion are efficacious to redemption. In the water of baptism, which (upon a partial quotation of John 3:5) is made necessary (De baptismo, vi.), humans are born again; the baptized does not receive the Holy Spirit in the water, but is prepared for the Holy Spirit. Humans are little fishes—after the example of the ichthys, fish, Jesus Christ—are born in water (De baptismo, i). In discussing whether sins committed subsequent to baptism may be forgiven, Tertullian calls baptism and penance "two planks" on which the sinner may be saved from shipwreck—language which he gave to the Church (De penitentia, xii). With reference to the 'rule of faith', it may be said that Tertullian is constantly using this expression, and by it means now the authoritative tradition handed down in the Church, now the Scriptures themselves, and, perhaps, a definite doctrinal formula. While he nowhere gives a list of the books of Scripture, he divides them into two parts and calls them the instrumentum and testamentum (Adv. Marcionem, iv.1). He distinguishes between the four Gospels and insists upon their apostolic origin as accrediting their authority (De praescriptione, xxxvi; Adv. Marcionem, iv.1–5); in trying to account for Marcion's treatment of the Lucan Gospel and the Pauline writings he sarcastically queries whether the "shipmaster from Pontus" (Marcion) had ever been guilty of taking on contraband goods or tampering with them after they were aboard (Adv. Marcionem, v.1). The Scripture, the rule of faith, is for him fixed and authoritative (De corona, iii-iv). As opposed to the pagan writings they are divine (De testimonio animae, vi). They contain all truth (De praescriptione, vii, xiv) and from them the Church drinks (potat) her faith (Adv. Praxeam, xiii). The prophets were older than the Greek philosophers and their authority is accredited by the fulfilment of their predictions (Apol., xix-xx). The Scriptures and the teachings

Catherine is a gentry daughter, a lady, but she is a wild animal-no instruction in becoming a lady. Hindley marries a very simple. childlike woman who dies in childbirth. He then hates his son, becomes an alcoholic, and is even more abusive. Catherine and Heathcliff’s relationship is changed when one day she gets injured and taken in by the Linton
family. There she learns how to pretend to be ladylike-still wild and crazy and abusive when things aren’t her way. Even though she loves Heathcliff she will not marry him. She will not chain herself to a man who has no family, no last name, he can’t do or become anything. She marries Edgar Linton and Heathcliff runs away. When he returns years later he comes to get his revenge on all-He will take Wuthering Heights and its son from the high and mighty Hindley, get revenge and hurt Edgar, and lastly-break Catherine’s heart like she broke his… So Wuthering Heights is a book about passion, and not just passion but unbridled passion. All these characters do whatever feels right to them, without thinking of what may come with their actions or the price they or others may have pay for their passion. Often the Bronte’s books are compared with Jane Austen’s. That makes this not only a book club pick, buuuut… Austen’s books take place more inside-sitting rooms, manors, etc, while the Bronte’s more on the moors and in nature. The Bronte’s are much darker than Austen work’s playing with similar themes but much deeper. Such as with Jane Austen’s books they may be secrets and hidden connections-the Bronte’s take a darker twist. The term wuthering means decaying, blustery, turbulent, etc-the personalities being wuthering as much as the house, and as wild as the moors they reside. I have always loved this book, but it was hard to read as what I had gone through with my husband. I understand how Heathcliff feels-with no last name and known family-he is essentially without a social security card and has no way of really doing anything. However, because he is hurt, he then hurts others-and no matter what happened to him that behavior is never okay. Cathy is just as abusive and very conniving. With her brother as her guardian she knows she will meet no one and grabs at Edgar to get away-bringing pain and destruction and heartbreak to him. “Edgar Linton, as multitudes have been before, and will be after him. was infatuated:and believed himself to be the happiest man alive

As it has been for many, said Godfrey, 2020 has been a particularly stressful year on farms. The pand
emic came just as farmers were thinking about planting. It created a rush on fresh potatoes, a crash in the processed potato market and concerns about whether there would be any help available from temporary foreign workers. That has probably also partly accounted for the increase in calls this year. Farmers can contact the Farmer Assistance program by calling (902) 626-9787 or toll-free 1-800-736-8006.

Toronto doctor creates blueprint for reducing addiction stigma in the Muslim community When Masjid Toronto first agreed to host seminars on addiction back in 2015, organizers weren't sure anyone would show up. "When we started off, there was skepticism," said Mohsin Syed, then the assistant manager of the downtown Toronto mosque. In fact, the subject was considered so delicate that participants were not told what the specific topic being discussed would be. To Syed's surprise, as the seminar series continued, the number of attendees grew and grew. In fact, "we were ... so packed in that basement that our air conditioning was not enough," he told CBC Toronto. Masjid Toronto was one of nine GTA mosques that hosted the seminar series, which aimed to tackle misconceptions and reduce stigma around addiction in Muslim communities. "After each seminar, we would get a lineup of people asking for resources, or discussing their cousin, their family, their friends," said Dr. Ahmed Hassan. Hassan, an addiction psychiatrist at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, spearheaded the events and then wrote about them in a study published this month in the Community Mental Health Journal. He lists several reasons why stigma around addiction can be prevalent in Muslim communities, including belief that addiction is sinful and shameful. "We wanted to address the stigma through this psycho-educational program," said Hassan of the 90-minute sessions. "We would dig deep in the content, and integrate Islamic teachings." For Syed at Masjid Toronto, that integration of a religious lens was critical. "Because these acts are already a sin — people are very afraid to talk about it," he explained. By having religious leaders participate in the seminars, Syed said, it "created a sense of comfort for the community. This is not just coming

I don't think Gabriel appeared to Muhammad. I was temporarily adopting a Muslim viewpoint for the sake of argument. In addition, my point is not that this presents a direct analogy from the Trinity. That's not how I'd model the Trinity. It does, however, illustrate that there's nothing inherently contradictory or nonsensical about saying individuals can be both distinct in some respect, yet identical in some respect. And there's nothing terribly esoteric about that distinction. I just drew that distinction in relation to the Quran.

So there's the risk of sample selection bias. Of superimposing an alien gloss onto the text. ii) It's possible that the symbolic import of some natural elements is a cultural universal. But it's hard to make confident generalizations given the vast scope of the topic over time and place. The available evidence is unmanageably large, and even then, that's only scratching the surface. iii) Some natural elements, because they have different functions, inevitably give rise to different or divergent symbolic meanings.

Washing, cooking, drinking, &c. That's why scholars disagree on the significance of baptism. It's often thought to represent cleansing. But
some scholars think it represents amniotic fluid, while Meredith Kline thought it represents deliverance from death by drowning. iv) Fauna, flora, and landscape have symbolic significance in many different cultures. But, of course, different cultures often have different faun, flora, and landscapes. Had Gen 3 been revealed in a culture with different animals, the Tempter might have been named Fox rather than Snake–since the fox is a trickster animal in some folkloric traditions. v) Moreover, the same natural elements can have variable symbolic significance. For instance, many different symbolic roles and properties are attributed to snakes. vi) To take another comparison, consider rivers. I suspect temperate rivers have a generally benign symbolism, but tropical rivers might well have an ambivalent or ominous connotations. For instance, the Nile has hippos and crocodiles. That makes the Nile river hazardous to humans. Likewise, many hidden dangers lurk in the Amazon river, viz., the Piranha, tiger fish, anaconda, electric eel, stingray, Bull shark, black caiman. vii) To take another comparison, some mythologies view fabled islands as heaven on earth (e.g. Dilmun, the Isles of the Blessed). Yet an island which appears to be a tropical paradise can be very menacing beneath the balmy surface. The sandy beach main contain deadly cone snails. The waters may contain sharks, stonefish, box jellyfish, &c. The scenic jungle may contain venomous snakes, giant pythons, or poisonous spiders. The island would have very different associations to a native than a passerby. vii) By the same token, mythological utopias like Dilmun and the Garden of the Hesperides are both "Edenic" or paradisiacal, yet these gardens for the gods, not humans. viii) Now I'd like to quote from a standard reference work to illustrate the diverse ways in which world mythology interprets "Edenic" motifs: As the center of the world, linking heaven and earth and anchoring the cardinal directions, the mountain often functions as an axis mundi–the centerpost of the world…One of the most important such mountains is Mount Meru, or Sumeru, the mythical mountain that has "centered" the world of the majority of Asians–Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain.

great need of a mule to carry his burdens. The horsemen have a long sword on their right sides, axed a long pole in their hand; a shield also lies by them obliquely on one side of their horses, with three or more darts that are borne in their quiver, having broad points, and not smaller than spears. They have also head-pieces and breastplates, in like manner as have all the footmen. And for those that are chosen to be about the general, their armor no way differs from that of the horsemen belonging to other troops; and he always leads the legions forth to whom the lot assigns that employment. 6. This is the manner of the marching and resting of the Romans, as also these are the several sorts of weapons they use. But when they are to fight, they leave nothing without forecast, nor to be done off-hand, but counsel is ever first taken before any work is begun, and what hath been there resolved upon is put in execution presently; for which reason they seldom commit any errors; and if they have been mistaken at any time, they easily correct those mistakes. They also esteem any errors they commit upon taking counsel beforehand to be better than such rash success as is owing to fortune only; because such a fortuitous advantage tempts them to be inconsiderate, while consultation, though it may sometimes fail of success, hath this good in it, that it makes men more careful hereafter; but for the advantages that arise from chance, they are not owing to him that gains them; and as to what melancholy accidents happen unexpectedly, there is this comfort in them, that they had however taken the best consultations they could to prevent them. 7. Now they so manage their preparatory exercises of their weapons, that not the bodies of the soldiers only, but their souls may also become stronger: they are moreover hardened for war by fear; for their laws inflict capital punishments, not only for soldiers running away from the ranks, but for slothfulness and inactivity, though it be but in a lesser degree; as are their generals more severe than their laws, for they prevent any imputation of cruelty toward those under condemnation, by the great rewards they bestow on the valiant soldiers; and the readiness of obeying their commanders is so great, that it is very ornamental in peace; but when they come to a battle, the whole army is but one body, so well coupled together are their ranks, so sudden are their turnings about, so

sharp their hearing as to what orders are given them, so quick their sight of the ensigns, and so nimble are their hands when they set to work; whereby it comes to pass that what they do is done quickly, and what they suffer they bear with the greatest patience. Nor can we find any examples where they have been conquered in battle, when they came to a close fight, either by the multitude of the enemies, or by their stratagems, or by the difficulties in the places they were in; no, nor by fortune neither, for their victories have been surer to them than fortune could have granted them. In a case, therefore, where counsel still goes before action, and where, after taking the best advice, that advice is followed by so active an army, what wonder is it that Euphrates on the east, the ocean on the west, the most fertile regions of Libya on the south, and the Danube and the Rhine on the north, are the limits of this empire? One might well say that the Roman possessions are not inferior to the Romans themselves. 8. This account I have given the reader, not so much with the intention of commending the Romans, as of comforting those that have been conquered by them, and for the deterring others from attempting innovations under their government. This discourse of the Roman military conduct may also perhaps be of use to such of the curious as are ignorant of it, and yet have a mind to know it. I return now from this digression. PLACIDUS ATTEMPTS TO TAKE JOTAPATA AND IS BEATEN OFF. VESPASIAN MARCHES INTO GALILEE. 1. AND now Vespasian, with his son Titus, had tarried some time at Ptolemais, and had put his army in order. But when Placidus, who had overrun Galilee, and had besides slain a number of those whom he had caught, (which were only the weaker part of the Galileans, and such as were of timorous souls,) saw that the warriors ran always to those cities whose walls had been built by Josephus, he marched furiously against Jotapata, which was of them all the strongest, as supposing he should easily take it by a sudden surprise, and that he should thereby obtain great honor to himself among the commanders, and bring a great advantage to them in their future campaign; because if this strongest place of them all were once

over time, regular consumption of processed foods could have the same toxic effect. Certain food preservatives can also have an inflammatory effect in the gut, which may lead to conditions such as IBS. Since gut microbes seem to be increasingly responsible for obesity, memory function, immune function and more, it's important not to subject them to an unfriendly, highly processed environment. 3. Hormones Exposure to plastic chemicals, including BPAs and phthalates, can cause hormonal havoc in the body. Since all processed foods come swaddled in plenty of plastic, all those plastic chemicals could be steadily accumulating in your body. A recent study showed that consumption of fast food was correlated with increased exposure to industrial chemicals known as phthalates. Unfortunately, exposure to these chemicals can have a disruptive impact on your hormones and health, as they seep into the body easily and kick out the body's natural hormones from places they need to be. Avoid packaged foods as often as possible, especially if your hormones are already imbalanced. 4. Brain Consumption of artificially sugar-packed foods may also be responsible for the chemical changes in the brain that can lead to depression. The brain can become addicted to the high-octane pleasure it gets from consuming that artificial flavor punch of most processed foods. When it doesn't get its "fix," feelings of depression can take hold. Processed food consumption may also increase the risk of memory problems and reduce your ability to control your appetite. The refined ingredients are simply not nourishing for your mind. Instead, eat some healthy fats from avocado or salmon to keep your memory and brain function strong as you age. 5. Blood Sugar The hidden sugars (especially corn syrup) in many processed foods are responsible for the influx of obesity and diabetes in our population. In the short term, high sugar consumption causes insulin resistance in the body, which is when the body must create more and more insulin in order to affect cells. Insulin resistance is at the root of many modern diseases, including Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, diabetes and heart disease. Processed foods are often highly refined and have very high GIs, which contributes to insulin resistance. Consume whole foods that contain fiber, protein and wholesome fats to balance out natural sugars rather than crunching on addictive, unsatisfying refined carbohydrates when you need a snack. Needless to say, highly refined, processed foods also encourage your body to hold on to excess weight in unhealthy areas, such as the waistline. Eating mostly a

Although your skin is
tough, it has a lot to combat. Sun damage, pollution, bad diet, and stress cause your skin to age prematurely. And one in every three cancers diagnosed is a skin cancer, making it the most common form of cancer in the world. Protect your skin—The sun can cause damage and premature aging, so cover up and avoid prolonged sun exposure. Also stay away from tanning beds, which can lead to melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer. Watch what you eat—A balanced diet, high in antioxidants, will help fight visible signs of aging. Adequate Nutrition—Consuming the right amount of vitamins, minerals, and fatty acids help your body and complexion maintain a healthy, youthful appearance. Drink plenty of water—Your skin needs water to maintain a healthy glow. Just like a raisin, your skin shows it when you don’t get enough. Proper skin care—Moisturize and cleanse your skin with paraben-free products that are free from added chemical preservatives. Get a check-up—Be sure to get a skin cancer related check-up annually, and perform frequent self-exams to check for changing moles or lesions. Taking care of your skin is a lifelong endeavor, but the results are worth it. By comforting your skin, you can be comfortable in your skin no matter the season!

Trans Abstract Both cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential (cVEMP) and ocular VEMP (oVEMP) are irreplaceable tools in the current vestibular science, but they have many drawbacks. For example, the test-retest reliability of
the asymmetry ratio is inadequate for both tests. The American Academy of Neurology noted that there is insufficient evidence to determine whether cVEMP and oVEMP can accurately identify vestibular function specifically related to the saccule/utricle. One of the most important factors underlying the variability of cVEMP seems to be the control of, and compensation for, baseline muscle contraction power. Reasons for variability in oVEMP include a poor signal to noise ratio, the angle of superior gaze, effective and controlled presentation of stimuli, intracranial pressure, and electrode location. Many of these shortcomings could be improved by further development of recording methods and devices. This article examines the reasons for the insufficient reliability of VEMP and proposes avenues for improvement of VEMP recording systems. Keywords: Vestibular; Vestibular evoked myogenic potential; Vertigo Keywords: 전정; 전정유발근전위; 현훈 Prior to the introduction of the vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) test in 1964 [1], there were no vestibular tests that could readily evaluate saccular function in vestibular clinics. With the development of cervical VEMP (cVEMP) and ocular VEMP (oVEMP), it is now possible to evaluate utricular and saccular function separately. After 50 years of experience with VEMP, it is time to re-evaluate the true clinical strengths and shortcomings of this vestibular test. Unfortunately, the midterm evaluation outcomes are not favorable. The recent American Academy of Neurology guidelines noted that there is insufficient evidence to determine whether cVEMP and oVEMP can accurately identify vestibular function specifically related to the saccule/utricle, and whether either of these tests is useful for diagnosing vestibulopathy [2]. Some researchers and clinicians have also pointed out that VEMP outcomes are sometimes inconsistent with those of other well-known vestibular function tests. VEMP seems to have considerable rates of false-positive and -negative results. This article examines the reasons for the insufficient reliability of VEMP and proposes avenues for improvement of VEMP recording systems. TEST-RETEST VARIABILITY OF VEMP Poor test-retest reliability is one reason for variability of VEMP. The intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) of cVEMP reported in the

album drops on Friday (Dec. 13) — nor Stefani spoke to People for the cover story, but they've told a similar story when they have spoken in public. In September, she told the Today show that Shelton was a great dad. "He’s been helping me out a lot," she said. "I literally get to the point where I’m like, 'You gotta get home, I need help.'" Shelton speaks as if marriage is inevitable, and in their new duet, he sings like a man who's ready to get hitched. "Nobody But You" is the name of the song.

There is no other book like it. From within the framework of a Buddhist view of the world, it speaks clearly about a creator, and purports to give us the teachings of this creator. The creator of all things, it claims, is the Bodhicitta. In its eighty-four chapters we are thoroughly introduced to this creator of all things and what he has to say. The All-Creating King is a great work of literature, one that will be prized by those interested in the Great Perfection as well as those interested in comparative literature, world religions, theology, mysticism, and philosophy.According to its colophon, The All-Creating King was translated into Tibetan and published by Vairochana in cooperation with his teacher Sri Singha in the Eighth Century of our era. Its very unconventional contents made it the subject of scrutiny from early on, and it is on a list of banned books compiled by Podrang Zhiwa Od in the Eleventh century. Despite its being banned, it has been faithfully retained in both canonical and extra-canonical collections right up to this day. In the division

The main focus of this research line concerns how inequalities are produced, reduced and/or maintained through education, and which educational policies could be implemented to ensure inclusive societies with well-educated populations. It studies micro-, meso- and macro-level processes on how educational systems, schools, and interactions between children, parents and teachers affect the opportunities of children of different social and ethnic origins. The theme includes scholars and interdisciplinary research projects from education, sociology and political science. One societal concern is the low enrolment into the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) fields in education, an issue that is addressed in the human capital agendas of the ‘Top-sectoren’ defined by the Dutch government and funded through NWO, and Horizon2020. We study these patterns, including socialization processes leading to unfavorable norms towards the STEM fields among girls. Also civic education is studied, of particular concern to the Europe2020 agenda of combined economic growth and inclusive societies. Comparative research is carried out on how institutional characteristics of educational systems (e.g. early tracking; forms of national standardization, vocational specificity of educational programmes) affect inequalities of educational opportunity, promote the transition from school to work, promote life-long learning to ensure prolonged work careers, and increase participation in higher education. It is studied whether and how educational systems are adapted to the needs of changing societies and economies. Main researchers: Brian Burgoon (Professor of International and Comparative Political Economy), Wouter van der Brug (Professor of Political Science), Michael Merry (Professor of Philosophy of Education), Tom van der Meer (Associate Professor of Political Science). The main focus of this research line is to study inequalities in political freedom, democratic participation and political behaviour, and their effect on the legitimacy of the state. Institutionalization processes are studied in the context of European democracy, both regarding informal norms towards Europe and formal processes of democratic representation. Conversely, it examines how the process of European integration affects the distribution of freedom within different European societies as well as the democratic participation and political behaviour.

So I am doing my best to ignore the hilarious islamo-gauchiste campaign in France, even to the extent of deciding not to finish the incredibly dumb, no good, absolutely disqualifying rant of Pierre Jourde, late of Commentaire, Club Capt. Gary Dicker signed for Kilmarnock from Carlisle United on deadline day - 1st February 2016. He penned an 18-month deal with an option for a further year. From his Wikipedia: Born in Dublin, Dicker began his career at League of Ireland side UCD. He joined from his local junior club Cherry Orchard and was gradually introduced into the first team through substitute appearances towards the latter end of UCD's successful 2004 First Division campaign. Gary progressed his way into a regular starting position the following season and successfully partnered Tony McDonnell in central midfield for the 2005 and 2006 Premier Division seasons. During his time at UCD he earned underage honours for Ireland at U-19 and U-21 level. In the 2006 League of Ireland close season he spent a loan spell at Championship side Birmingham City, but he never made it past the reserve team. He made his debut for the Birmingham City reserves against Stoke City Reserves, which Birmingham won 3–0. The Birmingham reserve team coach, Keith Bertschin, described Dicker as a 'very decent player. He's a good technical player, who can see and put in some lovely weighted passes and is decent with both feet'. He officially signed for Stockport County on 29 May 2007, for a fee of just £40,000. He signed a contract until 1 July 2010. He played a regular part in Stockport's 2007–08 League Two campaign and took part in a promotion for the second time in his career as County successfully negotiated their way into League One via the playoffs. On 26 March 2009, Dicker initially joined League One side Brighton & Hove Albion on loan for the remainder of the season, where he made nine appearances for the Seagulls, scoring one goal during this spell. On 25 June 2009, Dicker, joined Brighton & Hove Albion on a free transfer, signing a two-year contract. On 28 April 2011, having helped Brighton secure promotion to the Championship, Dicker was rewarded with a two-year contract extension. Dicker, alongside Vicente and Marcos Painter were released at the expiration of their contracts on 16 May 2013. On 27 June 2014, Dicker

Dicker, alongside Vicente and Marcos Painter were released at the expiration of their contracts on 16 May 2013. On 27 June 2014, Dicker
signed a two-year deal with League Two side Carlisle United. He was allowed to leave on February 1st 2016 and joined Kilmarnock on an initial 18-month deal. Comments To The Press 1st February 2016: “I’m looking forward to joining the team at Kilmarnock and hopefully making a valuable contribution over the course of the next few weeks”. February 24th 2016: “The club hotel where I’m living is literally facing the stadium, I’m still looking at places to live. With a family, it takes a bit of time moving up. The club have been good to me that way. I’ve been all over the place, (laughs the Irishman) To be honest, I knew I wasn’t going to get another contract at Carlisle. When I spoke to [owner] John Nixon about sorting out the move here, I don’t think he wanted me to go. But I’ve got to look after myself and my family. Everyone has to look after themselves in this game.” Dicker says he approached Curle after the manager informed a press conference that United had rejected a Conference loan bid for him. “I don’t think any Conference team came in for me, to be honest, I don’t know what that was about. Maybe it was a misunderstanding. In the week leading up to the York game [on January 23], my agent had spoken to him [Curle], but I didn’t speak to him until the Tuesday after. I’d read what he had said and didn’t really understand it. So I asked him about the supposed interest and that’s when he said Kilmarnock. I said I’d be interested to speak to them and he said that’s fine.” Erm…I think it did. It’s life – not everyone’s going to have a rosy relationship all the time. You’ve got to accept that rather than sit with a face on you. Sometimes your face fits, sometimes it doesn’t. I think what went on…I was disappointed with how I was treated a bit. That’s all. It’s in the past now, done with. People inside the club know what went on. Everyone knows it was kind of wrong. I’m not going to

The endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and the lipid vesicles are membrane-bounded compartments specialized in protein sorting and trafficking through the cell. Mitochondria supply the ATP energetic needs of a cell,
and are enclosed in a double layer membrane, in contrast to the single lipid bilayer that surrounds the other membrane-bounded organelles. With the advent of electron microscopy that allowed visualization of nanometer scale structures [1] and advances in fluorescent dyes and light microscopy, it became evident that there is further sub-division and local organization within the nucleus and cytosol in the form of non-membrane bounded, macromolecular assemblies. Currently characterized membrane-less bodies or organelles range in size from tens of nm to tens of μm and were defined as highly dynamic macromolecular assemblies, whose components rapidly cycle between the organelle and surrounding milieu [2–7]. Nucleoli (reviewed in [8]), nuclear speckles (reviewed in [3, 9]), paraspeckles (reviewed in [2, 10]), and PML (reviewed in [11, 12]) and Cajal bodies (reviewed in [4]) are enclosed within the nuclear envelope and are specialized in various aspects of gene regulation and RNA metabolism. Cytoplasmic messenger ribonucleoprotein (mRNP) granules, such as P-bodies, germ granules, and stress granules (reviewed in [13]) fulfill specific roles in mRNA metabolism and homeostasis. Analogous forms of RNA granules have recently been identified in mitochondria with roles in mitochondrial ribosome biogenesis and RNA processing [14]. In this review we will present an overview of current knowledge regarding the structural biology of membrane-less organelles and the molecular mechanisms involved in regulating their structure and function. Overview of membrane-less organelles Membrane-less organelles were described as dynamic structures which often display liquid-like physical properties [5, 6]. Although it is well established that they are implicated in important biological processes, their precise roles remain elusive, often being associated with more than a single functional pathway. As will be described in greater detail in the following sections, the proteinaceous composition of membrane-less organelles and their morphology are altered in response to changes in the cellular environment. This ability to respond to environmental cues may represent the mechanistic basis for the involvement of the membrane-less organelles discussed herein in stress sensing [2, 4, 9, 11, 13, 15]. The lack of a lipid-rich barrier to enclose the constituents of membrane-less organelles presents the advantage that changes in the surrounding environment

Another example, sometimes when speaking to someone that has had an idea, their emotional connection to the idea is the impasse, and no amount of good logic and reasoning can dissuade them of their idea.

Yes, I am of the opinion that Logic always trumps Science, and therefore our truths should be dictated by Logic, and not necessarily Science. Logic can overturn Science, but Science can never overturn Logic. If something is logically impossible,
then all the science in the world cannot make the impossible, possible. - The truths of Science are constantly evolving and changing. The truths of Science are fallible. - The truths of Logic/Math are constant; never changing. The truths of Logic/Math are non-fallible. I agree with you that logic is essential for making sense of the world. But which logic? Logic can only operate within a logical system. Something that many people seem to ignore. A logical system requires elements and rules of inference. Then it can be shown how a theorem can be generated from those elements and rules of inference. That is the only way logic can work. All to often people conflate logical systems and language, without any formal exposition of how those words are to be handled within the logical system. The result is chaos and paradoxes and hand waving arguments. It is simply not proper logic. And hinders rather then helps in an understanding of the world. A_Seagull E-mail A_Seagull by edy420 on December 9th, 2018, 9:51 pm All logical calculations are an approximation when applied to the real world. I remember as an electrical apprentice, we could calculate volt drop over distance if we knew the resistance in the conductor. The mathematical calculation was close but never consistent with and actual measurement. The calculation and the measurement were plus or minus in accuracy. It turns out, this happens in any application of logic when compared to real world measurement. This effect seems universal. I wonder if it's due to unknown variables or if it's just that the world has some kind of filter between logic and application. (Perhaps constants are not really constant or we live in a dream of God etc) Sure 2+2=4 But 2 (object) + 2 (object) does not equal 4 (objects) In our minds it works nicely, but 2 objects will differ in atomic structure and mass, making the logical truth an impossibility in application. So much so that the logical truth we cling on to is not absolute. This is consistent with the logical truth, that there is no absolute truths.

With the implications between hummingbird and moving entirely to secure search, a focus on intent at the content level is critical. We are definitely seeing a move away from the big volumes offered traditionally by "head terms," into an era where the long-tail is even more important, as Google serves up more personalized results. This means that a simple result for 'insurance' will no longer be shown, and instead the results will be more relevant to something such as 'cheap car insurance quotes for a 33 year old male'. - Simon Penson, Founder of Zazzle Media Many SEO's are already gleaning intent from their keyword research: Keyword research is excellent for understanding user intent, which is one of the main pillars of my content strategies. I focus on crafting content that will meet customer expectations in hopes of creating a better overall experience. 6. In a recent article by Peep Laja, he said: SEO is going to get increasingly harder. If you're still doing SEO by optimizing for keywords, you should know: it's not 2008 anymore. Things have changed! Google understands context, natural language, intent. And he is completely right. Expanding on head terms and focusing on traffic is not how you are going to win the SERP's as we move into the world of 100% not provided and complete geo-personalized results. But getting intent right is hard, and making sure you are developing the right content to support the right intent, at the right phase in the conversion funnel is even harder. But using research, analysis, and a dash of creativity gets the ball rolling... Coming from an SEO background I've always felt that keyword research is one of the best sources for content development. Before Google stole our keyword data, leveraging your existing analytics could show popular topics that were performing well, but were under serviced. For example, a marketing company may find articles around "Facebook Advertising" were generating 25% of their leads, but only made up 3% of their content.

By adding a new “layer of insulation” in form of a wall of student apartments all around the halls the event space will be insulated and 1500 new student housing units will be installed in the structure. Students living in this new combined event space and mega-collegium will not only have a great and cheap place to live, they will also have free row seats to concerts and other events. The transformation from B & W halls for B & W College will not only preserve a landmark that can be seen from many parts of the city. It will also create a unique combination of student and cultural events that can put crucial time in Refshaleøen who is first is slated to begin its urban development in the 2020s. The project IS exhibited AT the Venice Biennial 2016. At the Davi Law Group, we consistently and successfully handle family law matters for clients throughout Chicago, Illinois. If you are seeking to establish parentage in Illinois, our attorneys can help you understand the steps in the process.

Attorney Davi and his team will direct you to the right resources and take care of the legal aspects of your situation. We can also answer any questions you may have about how parentage issues can impact you and your children. The parent-child relationship is known as parentage. Maternity is the acknowledgment of a mother-child relationship while paternity relates to a father’s connection to a child. Paternity can be sought by a biological mother, her child, or an assumed father. Filing a petition subjects the assumed father to DNA testing and upon confirmation of fatherhood, a judicial determination of parentage is established. Children with established fathers gain access to additional benefits such as inheritance as part of an estate plan, child support, and health insurance.

A decision to rescind the acknowledgement of paternity must be completed within 60 days of signing the form. These forms are available at several venues such as
hospitals and human services program offices. Additionally, men who wish to establish paternity can access the Illinois Putative Father Registry. Up to 30 days after a child’s birth, an alleged father, also known as the putative father, can register on the paternity system. Failure to register with the defined periods may lead to termination of parental rights. After registration, a putative father has 30 days to initiate paternity proceedings. According to the Illinois Parentage Act of 1984, the right to visitation in a parentage judgment is determined by the person named to provide a support obligation. This person is presumed to to be the non-custodial parent (NCP). Custody is presumed to be with the mother, unless the father had physical possession of the child for at least six months before the mother pursued custody. There are many issues to consider when handling paternity issues and we can help you consider the best plan of action to help your child now and in the years to come. Contact the Davi Law Group today for help with parentage and paternity matters. We will give you an honest assessment of your family law matter and explain our approach at no charge, which has an approximate value of $325.00. We have offices in Warrenville, Joliet, Wheaton, and Chicago, Illinois. Our attorneys look forward to meeting with you. We can hardly avoid a difficult situation or trauma. Bereavement, relationship problems, professional problems, diseases and accidents might trigger emotional disorders. Post traumatic stress is characterized by anxiety that persists for more than a month after the occurrence of the traumatic event. Post traumatic stress disorder is a type of anxiety disorder. This emotional disorder could affect adults as well as children. It is estimated that one in ten people suffer from emotional problems after encountering a traumatic event. The emotional problems such as fear, horror and anxiety worsen over time. Fortunately, with the right treatment, post traumatic stress could be cured. The severity of the symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder varies from person to person. The signs of the emotional disorder could be noticed within three months of the unfortunate event. Rarely, the symptoms of post traumatic disorder develop several years after the occurrence of the traumatic event. The symptoms are divided into three groups – intrusive memories, avoidance and intense anxiety. Through intrusive memories such as recurrent nightmares or flashbacks of the traumatic event, the post traumatic stress syndrome sufferer re-lives the disturbing event frequently. He/she will avoid talking about the event, entering a state of emotional numbness.

They might just interpret an agreed upon meeting time more literally. If you suggest to meet AT 8:30, I'll expect you to be there AT 8:30. Not 8:15, not 8:45, but 8:30. If you say let's meet AROUND 8:30, I'll give you a grace period of 15 minutes. Ie, never forget the errorbars. And yes, the Berlin Wall is a place I'm afraid. Best, Hi Michael: You must have interesting friends :-) Trond, Just out of curiosity: why pollution? Best, Slightly OT... The "end of all restrictions" sign is not unique to Germany - a similar sign is also used in the UK (and until recently Ireland), however it means something slightly different. It used to mean the same thing as in Germany, but during the oil crisis a national speed limit of 60 or 70 mph (depending on the class of the road) was introduced. Instead of replacing the "no limit" signs they cut costs and just redefined their meaning. Now when you're driving in the UK you have to memorise the speed limits for the different classes of rural road, because they aren't written on any signs. Thankfully the Republic of Ireland, who had followed suit but with different values(!), corrected this a couple of years ago when they metricated their speed limits. Oh, and to get back on topic: engineering, forests, wurst, beer, black bread. trond 10:44 PM, April 18, 2009 Acid rain. I guess it's more historical, but it's what came to mind.

I could either model the raw number of purchases, the proportion of purchases to the number of ads shown, or transform purchases into a binary 0/1 variable and model the probability of a purchase. Respectively, I could either run a Poisson regression for counts, a CART model for the proportions, or a logistic regression for the binary outcome. I was just wondering if all three of these approaches are viable. Also is making the levels for the 'type' variable into its own row a viable option to capture what type of users buy the product?

(assumed) moratorium on those with lower IQs, leaving the higher IQ ones to find jobs and contribute to the economy. Remember the last time Germany used IQ tests? =^) March 27, 2016 12:17 am / 3 Comments on Evolutionary Reasons for Suicide Bombings With all of these suicide bombings in the news recently, I figured I’d talk about some evolutionary reasons for suicide bombings. While reading JP Rushton’s paper Ethnic nationalism, evolutionary psychology and Genetic Similarity Theory, I came across a small part of the paper where he talks about evolutionary reasons for suicide bombings: mainly that it increases inclusive fitness. I know that biology doesn’t tell the whole story, but it tells a lot of it. Today I will argue that mainly, suicide bombings are driven by genetic similarity, as argued by Rushton in his paper. The data is there that this is a possibility and a worthwhile hypothesis to take note of. Due to how inbred Muslims (Arabs) are, (as well as other Muslim populations, which are also inbred, such as the Chechens), they are more genetically similar to themselves than they are to other groups. The brain hormone oxytocin is conjectured to increase ethnocentrism, seeing as oxytocin is shown to increase in-group cooperation, and at the same time out-group derogation. This is also the case when two genetically distinct cultures meet up and live together. Their biology is so dissimilar, ethnic strife arises due to the far genetic distance between the two groups. So due to this increased genetic similarity, this causes those who are more similar to themselves, to favor those phenotypically similar to themselves, because if the phenotype is similar, more often than not, the genotype is as well. This is the basis for all ethnocentrism. To quote Rushton from the paper mentioned above: Political issues are especially explosive when survival and reproduction are at stake. Consider the growth of Middle Eastern suicide bombers. Polls conducted among Palestinian adults from the Gaza Strip and the West Bank show that about seventy-five per cent support suicidal attacks, whereas only about twelve per cent are opposed (Margalit 2003). Many families state that they are proud of their kin who become martyrs. Most analyses of the motives of suicide bombings emphasise unique aspects such as the Palestinian or Iraqi political situation, the teachings of radical Islam, or a popular culture saturated with the glorification of martyrs. These political factors play

These political factors play
an indispensable role but from an evolutionary perspective aspiring to universality, people have evolved a ‘cognitive module’ for altruistic self-sacrifice that benefits their gene pool. In an ultimate rather than proximate sense, suicide bombing can be viewed as a strategy to increase inclusive fitness. There is “altruistic self-sacrifice” for what suicide bombers do. Rushton then posits, that the self-sacrifice then, in turn, benefits their gene pool and that suicide bombing can be looked at as a strategy to increase inclusive fitness. Many people in the field have come to this conclusion. There is a reason, a genetic reason, for a lot of these suicide bombings. How could suicide bombings increase inclusive fitness if the individual is committing suicide? As I have said numerous times on my blog, evolution selects for genes, not individuals. So with selecting for genes, individuals who share similar genes with others who sacrifice themselves for other, more genetically similar people to themselves are actually increasing the proliferation of their genes. This is, yet again, is another answer to the people who argue that genetic similarity theory, which is predicated on self-sacrifice for those genetically similar to yourself, would select for selfishness, and not ethnic altruism. This is the case because those genes are being preserved. Individuals are basically just organisms to proliferate copies of their genes in to the next generation and nothing more. Rushton then says: What reasons do suicide bombers themselves give for their action? Many invoke the rhetoric of Islam while others appeal to political and economic grievances. Mahmoud Ahmed Marmash, a twenty-one-year-old bachelor from Tulkarm who blew himself up near Tel Aviv in May 2001 said in a videocassette recorded before he went on his mission (cited in Margalit, 2003): I want to avenge the blood of the Palestinians, especially the blood of the women, of the elderly, and of the children, and in particular the blood of the baby girl Iman Hejjo, whose death shook me to the core. Many other national groups have produced suicide warriors. The term ‘zealot’ originates in a Jewish sect that existed for about 70 years in the first century CE. According to the classical historian Flavius Josephus (1981), an extreme revolutionary faction among them assassinated Romans and Jewish colla- borators with daggers; this likely reduced their chances of staying alive. A group of about 1,000 Zealots

such measures to rally and attract new followers to their cause. The concept of the boogaloo has been gaining in popularity recently, and it’s become a meme among a range of far-right extremist groups. On public Facebook pages, supporters of the movement circulate satirical posts about the overthrow of government, painting the boogaloo as a viral online phenomenon rather than a real-world threat. But communications of boogaloo supporters in private Facebook groups accessed by TTP tell a different story: extremists exchanging detailed information and tactics on how to organize and execute a revolt against American authorities. This activity is occurring without any apparent intervention by Facebook. Of the 125 boogaloo-focused Facebook groups identified by TTP, 63% (79) were created between February and April of this year. The groups count 72,686 members, though it wasn’t clear how many individuals may be members of more than one group. Nearly half of the members (36,117) have joined the groups within the past 30 days. TTP identified the boogaloo groups based on their names, which often incorporated slang and other terms used by supporters to reference the coming civil war, such as “boog,” “big igloo,” and “boojihadeen.” The majority of the groups—112, or roughly 89%—are private, which means Facebook users must request to join and be approved by moderators in order to view the discussions. TTP was able to gain access to several of these closed groups. But even when TTP didn’t gain entry into private groups, it was able to glean basic information about them. Facebook allows non-members to see data like the groups’ date of creation, number of members, growth rate of membership within a 30-day period, and number of posts during that period. A Troubling Trend Both the public and private boogaloo groups that TTP reviewed appear to violate Facebook policies. The platform’s Community Standards on “Violence and Criminal Behavior” explicitly ban facilitating, organizing or promoting “harmful activities targeted at people.” They also prohibit “statements of intent to commit high-severity violence.” Yet membership in the groups appears to have grown unchecked on Facebook in recent months.

Facebook has been on notice about the issue since at least February, when the Network Contagion Research Institute, an organization that tracks
misinformation and hate on social media, published a report about how the use of the boogaloo to advocate for extreme violence has spread across social media over the past few months. In response to NBC inquiries about the report, a Facebook spokesperson said the company is tracking such activity. Despite this promise, an April study by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD), a London-based think tank that studies extremism, found that “COVID-19 is being used to advance calls for the ‘boogaloo,’” and that two boogaloo-related Facebook groups have seen large spikes in engagement in recent months. One of the groups, Big Igloo Bois, saw an 88% jump in interactions in March, according to the study. Trump’s tweets about liberating Virginia, Michigan and Minnesota appear to have energized some elements of the boogaloo movement. TTP found that some members of private boogaloo Facebook groups reacted to the president’s rhetoric with memes of celebration and traded details of anti-quarantine protests in Richmond, Virginia, and Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Facebook later began removing posts promoting the protests in states like California, New Jersey and Nebraska, saying it takes the action “when gatherings do not follow the health parameters established by the government and are therefore unlawful.” The company’s enforcement, however, appears to be piecemeal. TTP found protest announcements promoted in private boogaloo Facebook groups that remained active after Facebook’s action. One event encouraged people to attend a Wisconsin protest slated for April 24, even though the state is under a stay-at-home order until May 26. The event page lists more than 3,200 people as attending and another 12,000 as interested. Clothing Line in Public, Civil War in Private Among the most popular boogaloo-themed pages on Facebook is Thicc Boog Line, a boogaloo clothing brand that has generated nearly 30,000 followers since its October 2019 founding. Thicc Boog Line sells boogaloo-branded clothing and accessories, using its Facebook page to promote merchandise and periodically post memes related to opportunities for the boogaloo in the time of Covid-19. The Thicc Boog Line page is also an administrator of at least 11 private Facebook groups related to preparations for a civil war. The groups are organized into tactical roles such as intelligence collection, technology, communication, machinery,

If it does work on a blank, fresh instance, it's likely a code modification or an extension conflict. I'd recommend running a Magento code audit on the site to see if you have any core file changes or overrides, such as the one here: Free Magento Code Audit Tool A: Try to perform a reindex and secondly, use native theme (rwd).

) The 17th death is a woman, over the age of 60 on Maui, with underlying medical conditions. She had been in the hospital at Maui Memorial Medical Center since late February. Her infection occurred in mid-April. “COVID-19 is not believed to be the primary cause of death, due to her other serious illnesses, but may have been a contributing factor to her passing,” health officials said. (April 27) The 16th death is an Oʻahu woman who is over 65-years-old and had underlying conditions and had been hospitalized since early April. (April 26) An O‘ahu man, over the age of 65, with underlying health conditions passed away on April 26. He had been in the hospital since early March and his infection was presumed to be community associated. (April 24) The Hawai‘i Department of Health reported the 13th and 14th deaths associated with COVID-19 in the state. One is an O‘ahu man who had been hospitalized since the beginning of April, was over 65-years-old, and had underlying medical conditions. He had a history of travel to Las Vegas in March. The other is also an O‘ahu man, over 65-years-old, who’d also been hospitalized recently and also had underlying health conditions. His infection was the result of community-associated spread. (April 20) The Hawai‘i Dept. of Health reports that two additional coronavirus related deaths occurred on April 20, bringing the total in the state to 12 since tracking began on Feb. 28, 2020. The deaths occurred on O‘ahu and on Maui and both were men, 65-years-old, or older. On Maui, the man who passed had underlying health conditions. He had been in the hospital at Maui Memorial Medical Center since late last year, according to state Health officials. This person’s death is considered related to the MMMC cluster. (April 19) The fourth Maui case was confirmed on April 19, and was an adult male from Washington state in the 40-59-year age group who had no previous medical conditions. State health officials say the man’s exposure history may be travel-related. The man had been hospitalized for an extended period in serious condition at Maui Memorial Medical Center.

. State officials say she had underlying medical conditions and had tested positive for the virus when she was hospitalized on O‘ahu. (April 7) A third death in Maui County reportedly occurred on April 7, but was reported in the state count on Friday, April 10. The third case involved an elderly individual who was in the chronic care unit. (April 8) The second Maui death was announced on Wednesday, April 8, and was an unattended death. The person who passed was identified as an adult male resident over the age of 65. (April 6)Maui reported its first COVID-19 related death on Monday, April 6, of an adult male over the age of 65 with underlying health conditions and exposure to travelers. (April 4) An East O‘ahu adult male, over 65-years-old, is the 4th person to die from COVID-19. The individual passed on April 4, and based on preliminary information, this case was travel-related in that the person may have been exposed to someone who had traveled. He had been hospitalized. (April 3) The Hawaiʻi Department of Health reported the death of a third individual with COVID-19. The elderly Oʻahu resident had been hospitalized in critical condition on life support for several weeks after returning from travel to Washington state. (April 2) Hawaiʻi officials confirm a second COVID-19 related death in the state. (March 30). Governor David Ige offered condolences to the family of an individual, as the state reported it’s first death linked to the COVID-19 virus. The individual passed away on March 20 and was identified as an older adult male resident of Oʻahu who was hospitalized with multiple medical issues and did have a positive COVID-19 exposure, according to state Health officials. The presumptive positive result came back from a private lab.

I’m only the Piano Player) SACD Elton’s continuation of the 2CD deluxe editions for “Madman”, Honky Chateau & Don’t Shoot Me. (might as well update the To Be Continued set as well) and long overdue, a Bob Seger career box set. If even half of what everyone has confirmed/speculated/wished for here happens it’d make for a pretty decent year. Agree with another Bowie box. I’m one of those strange ones who actually liked the Tin Machine albums, so wouldn’t mind if it were dedicated or rounded out with a Sound & Vision tour compilation. A blu ray of a full show would be a welcome addition to the series. I’d really like to see vinyl, deluxe reissues or boxes for Mega City Four, Senseless Things, The Seers or even Cateran, Edsel Auctioneer… Cheap Trick Dream Police turns 40. A box with blu ray audio and live shows would be something I’d trade cash to have. Jesus and Mary Chain’s Automatic is 30. It gets a lotta flack for the drum machines but it’s my personal favorite LP from them. Finally, New Model Army’s masterpiece Thunder & Consolation is also 30. Would like to see them celebrate that somehow. In general I really hope that we finally see the shift from DVDs to blu rays in super/deluxe editions and that they take advantage of all the capacity the format has to offer! J T says: I’ll second Cheap Trick Dream Police. Alt-pop maestros Imperial Teen have a new album in the bag to be unleashed sometime this year also. (Roddy Bottum from Faith No Mores other band.) Hoping it will be as great as their last effort Feel The Sound. Here’s to reissues from Van Morrison and B-52’s and like so many others I wish for 2019 to be a Seeds of Love year! Also time for a new Patti Smith album! Would really love to see a 30th Anniversary SDE of Malcolm McLarens ‘Waltz Darling’ album. Corey Hart’s first album since 1998 is out early-mid 2019 Agree on both. Loved Corey’s ‘Attitude & Virtue’ from 92.

‘Love and Money’ feat. Terence trench is a gem. David Hartley says: Given Paul’s mentioned the possible “Animals” 5.1 release, I’m also expecting a Blu-ray/CD set of Waters’ “Us+Them” tour. I read that the Amsterdam gig(s) were filmed, and having caught the show in Oz, it’s definitely one to view/listen to all over again. Gorecki says: I’ve got my fingers crossed that Massive Attack might try and put something together for the 20th Anniversary of Mezzanine – last year! It would be very silly to completely miss that one wouldn’t it??? ;) Seriously, if this band can’t EVER stick to a release schedule then don’t bother having one! Current release date for Mezzanine 20 is now 19th April – this year? Next year? Some time? Never? Only 6 months behind schedule! They do this with every single release! And it’s extremely frustrating. (The only thing I can think of is they’re back to having legal issues with those wretched samples – specifically the Manfred Mann one – which I thought was now permanently excised.) I have 5 words for Universal. GRACE JONES LIVING MY LIFE Cornelius says: Good choice. It’s been out-of-print for ages. imsparky4u says: INXS is the band I have most wanted deluxe editions of all of their albums, and I am absolutely stoked about the possibility! Also very much looking forward to the a-ha reissues. What I would MOST like to see soon are deluxe versions of Nik Kershaw’s Radio Musicola and The Works!! Deano says: Feeling a bit pessimistic about the year ahead. Screw Brexit – i want to see some more properly done Superdeluxe box sets. We’re all getting old and physical media is a dying breed. This should be the last chance for the record companies to give us everything we want (and to actually pay for it). Why should I buy the New Order Movement superdeluxe when it has one last disc than was previously released on CD. This does not complete my CD collection; it just merely complicates it by having to get the new reis

Hopkins (HOU): If you want to talk about “tools”, I think Hopkins has it. If you want to talk about quarterback play, Houston doesn’t have it. The Texans seemed to forget about the rookie at times last season, as 26 percent of his targets came in two games, and until they figure out the quarterback position, Hopkins will be a diamond waiting to be uncovered, 40. Brian Hartline (MIA): He is always underrated and Ryan Tannehill is only getting better. He racks up yardage and finally stumbled into the endzone multiple times last season, the first time he’s done that in four seasons. He will be on every one of my teams this year, and I recommend you pick him a round early in the very late rounds of your draft as well. 41. Reggie Wayne (IND): Older players with injuries are scary. Older players with injuries on teams that bring in a young receiver are even scarier. I think Wayne can produce a solid stat line, but his name value is going to result in him going too early. 42. Anquan Boldin (SF): He’s more important to the 49ers than to Fantasy owners, but he is a low downside option that you can count on to do the dirty work. San Francisco isn’t going to throw the ball a ton, and Boldin won’t repeat last year’s 1,179 yards, as Crabtree figures to be healthier and more involved, but he has totaled 1,000 yards or seven touchdowns in seven of his last nine seasons. 43. Rueben Randle (NYG): The Giants were willing to move on from the Hakeem Nicks era because they have faith in Randle. His statistics essentially doubled in his sophomore season and another increase should be in store as a result of his new role. Rolling the dice on this Giants offense is risky, but the potential reward outweighs the risk for this 23-year-old. 44. Mike Evans (TB): Josh McCown was able to take full advantage of having a physically imposing, young receiver playing opposite of a veteran stud last year in relief duty for the Bears and now he has the opportunity to do it again in 2014. Evans will have his growing pains, but you can’t teach that size, and what McCown did last year is enough for me to roll the dice on this rookie. 45. Mike Williams (BUF): Sleeper

alert. E.J. Manuel will improve with a NFL season under his belt and I love the fact that Williams will be reuniting with his college coach in Doug Marrone. It was only one season ago in which Williams tallied 996 yards and nine scores, and that was with Josh Freeman playing quarterback. 46. James Jones (OAK): Jones is about to realize how good he had it from a quarterback perspective in Green Bay over the last seven seasons. Matt Schaub is going to be the Raiders quarterback this season and he never found a way to get Andre Johnson ten touchdowns (Jones caught 14 in 2012 from Aaron Rodgers). If you roster him, you’re banking on him scoring a touchdown when you play him, as he has never been a high yardage player (662 yards per 16 games for his career). 47. Jarrett Boykin (GB): Could he fill the James Jones role in this offense? Sure. I’m not betting on it, primarily because I think the Packers pound their other options. Boykin has the stature to be a real deep threat, but Jordy Nelson is better at doing essentially the same thing. Select Boykin as a bye-week filler because he plays on an elite offense, with the thought that should Nelson get injured, Boykin becomes a weekly starter. 48. Tavon Austin (STL): At this point in the draft, I’m willing to roll the dice on upside. Austin, as he proved at times last year, has the ability to break the game open. Neither he nor the Rams offense has any consistency, so you need to understand that you are trying to catch lightening in a bottle. 49. Hakeem Nicks (IND): He has an injury plagued past and has yet to live up to his potential, but he is still 26 years of age and will be in the best offense of his career. His struggles last season (0 touchdowns) were correlated to poor quarterback play, something I don’t think he has to worry about in Indy. A season with 800 yards and four to six touchdowns is very much in play, albeit with health downside. 50. Marvin Jones (CIN): Can Andy Dalton continue to build on his improving numbers? If so, Jones is going to be a steal in many a Fantasy draft. Jones had a monster four score game last year, but that wasn’t the only time we heard from him, as rangy receiver reached paydirt ten times in 2013

behavior and kinetic study of ABS polymer Authors: H. Polli, L. Pontes, A. Araujo, Joana Barros, and V. Fernandes The degradation kinetics of the ABS terpolymer (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) was investigated by means of thermogravimetric analysis. The samples were heated from 30 to 900°C in nitrogen atmosphere applying three different heating rates: 5, 10 and 20°C min−1. The Vyazovkin model-free kinetic method was used to calculate the activation energy (E) of the degradation process as a function of conversion and temperature. Between 20 and 80% of conversion, E was calculated and the figures were: for ABS GP, E is 204.5±11.5 kJ mol−1 (medium value); for ABS HI, E is 239.0±9.8 kJ mol−1; for ABS HH, E is 242.4±5.4 kJ mol−1. Thermal properties from membrane of polyamide 6/montmorillonite clay nanocomposites obtained by immersion precipitation method Authors: A. Leite, L. Maia, R. Paz, E. Araújo, and H. Lira The aim of this work was to obtain membranes from polyamide 6/montmorillonite clay nanocomposites through the phase inversion technique. The nanocomposites and membranes from polyamide 6/montmorillonite clay were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Thermogravimetry (TG) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). Microporous and asymmetric membranes were successfully obtained from nanocomposites and the results showed that the salts were incorporated by intercalation between the organoclay layers and, apparently that the nanocomposites and membranes were thermally more stable than the pure polyamide.

Update to Oracle Solaris 10 Focuses on ZFS File System California State University System Wraps Hybrid Cloud Data Project Students Records | News SPEEDE Server Moves to National Student Clearinghouse By Leila Meyer The University of Texas at Austin is transferring operations of its electronic student record exchange services to the National Student Clearinghouse, a nonprofit organization for higher education enrollment and degree verifications. The National Student Clearinghouse will assume operations of the Standardization of Postsecondary Electronic Education Data Exchange (SPEEDE) Server, which was created by the university in 1995. The SPEEDE Server delivers electronic transcripts, electronic admissions applications for all public Texas universities through ApplyTexas, transcript acknowledgements, test scores, and other educational records. In the last year, the SPEEDE Server processed more than 4.3 million documents for nearly 300 institutions. Under the partnership, "the university and the Clearinghouse will work together to expand the use of electronic data exchange among institutions of higher education as well as to achieve the benefits that automation can bring to address institutional goals," according to the National Student Clearinghouse. The university's role in the partnership will be to continue to promote national standards for electronic data exchange and improve higher education services and operations. The partnership "will allow the University of Texas and SPEEDE users to evolve their use of the platform to incorporate new services, such as the future establishment of an education record repository at the Clearinghouse," said Rick Torres, president and CEO of the Clearinghouse, in a prepared statement. "This repository will enable greater research capabilities and, therefore, will facilitate greater understanding of enrollment trends and performance in line with the Clearinghouse's mission." The university chose the National Student Clearinghouse as its partner "because of the Clearinghouse's ongoing commitment to improving efficiency for higher education with low-cost solutions, its deep research capabilities, and its commitment to information security," according to information released by the Clearinghouse. "UT Austin has devoted close to two decades developing and supporting a national model for the electronic transfer of educational records. This partnership with the National Student Clearinghouse will allow for the expansion of the technology and services developed at The University of Texas at Austin into a truly national platform," said Shelby Stanfield, vice provost and registrar of the university, in a

"Expanded electronic data exchange based on national standards as well as services available through the Clearinghouse will permit comprehensive research about higher education enrollment trends and improve efficiency at institutions across the country." The Clearinghouse plans to continue to provide the SPEEDE service to colleges and universities for free. Other services from the National Student Clearinghouse include educational reporting, verification, and transcription services, most of which are available for free, as well as a StudentTracker, a research service that enables educational institutions and researchers to study postsecondary enrollment and success.

Covid-19: South Africa Virus Cases Fast Rising, Jump To 116 A person sprays commuters with hand sanitiser as a preventive measures at Wanderers taxi rank in Johannesburg CBD, on March 18, 2020. – African international locations have been among the many final to be hit by the worldwide COVID-19 coronavirus epidemic however as instances rise, many countries are actually taking strict measures to dam the lethal sickness. Michele Spatari / AFP. South Africa on Wednesday recorded its highest 24-hour improve in coronavirus infections up to now, with 31 new instances taking the nation’s tally as much as 116, authorities introduced. Africa’s most industrialised financial system is essentially the most affected in sub-Saharan Africa and second-most impacted on the continent after Egypt, which has recorded 196 instances. The nation’s first coronavirus an infection, confirmed on March 5, was detected in a person who had arrived from Italy — the brand new centre of a pandemic that has contaminated greater than 19,000 individuals worldwide and killed over 7,800. “As of this morning, 18 March 2020, South Africa now has 116 confirmed cases of COVID-19,” Well being Minister Zweli Mkhize mentioned in an announcement. Of the brand new instances introduced this week, six have been kids aged 5 or below. The general public who’ve examined optimistic in South Africa had not too long ago travelled to highly-affected international locations in Europe and the Center East. However not less than 14 inside transmissions have been detected this week, elevating fears the novel virus might unfold into overcrowded townships with poor entry to sanitation and little scope for self-isolation. “

and harvesting the organization’s digital ambition. “This shift brings significant changes that has implications for the application organization,” says Dennis Gaughan, VP Analyst, Gartner. “Some of these changes include shifting budgets from IT to business units, changing workforce demographics, aligning IT operating models to business models and quickly learning how to exploit new technologies.” Gartner predicts three ways digital business and new technologies will impact application leaders over the next five years. By 2021, 25% of digital workers will use a virtual employee assistant on a daily basis, up from less than 2% in 2019. Virtual employee assistant (VEA) is a type of virtual assistant designed for the workplace. VEAs drive productivity and efficiency improvements, as well as create more engaging user experiences by transforming how digital workers interact with their workspaces. For example, organizations are already deploying VEAs to assist with common IT tasks such as password resets and other service desk issues. Digital workplace application leaders will need to include employees from various business units in identifying early use cases for VEAs to ensure ease of use when it comes to collaboration, communication and access to specific internal applications. Read more: 5 Year Vision for Application Leaders By 2023, 65% of organizations that moved to a product-centric delivery model will have embedded their digital product managers in a business area. In many organizations, the shift away from the project-centric view of IT to a product-centric approach is well underway. A recent Gartner survey found 85% of organizations have adopted, or plan to adopt, a product-centric application delivery model. “Inspired by the agile and DevOps movements, the product-centric model and mindset treat applications as products that have life cycles,” says Gaughan. “Operating in this manner introduces a critical role — the digital product manager.” “ Application leaders responsible for integration must enable colleagues other than specialists to perform integration as part of their job” Digital product managers manage the strategic direction of products and are closely linked to achieving a set of business results. As a result, the product management function will migrate from the technology organization into business teams.

tasks. Typically, all integration work is performed by a central team of full-time integration specialists. However, the move to digital business, cloud, mobile and the Internet of Things has resulted in an overwhelming and exponential volume of integration work. Application leaders responsible for integration must enable colleagues other than specialists to perform integration as part of their job. Look into the volume and complexity of integration work to assess how delegating responsibility to non-IT personnel can improve the organization’s business agility and make time for new initiatives. Predicts 2019: Application Leaders Predicts 2019: Leadership Means Expanding Options, Not Limiting Them 'Ashamed': Pakistan grapples with fallout from mob killing People light oil lamps to express their condolences, following the lynching of the Sri Lankan manager of a garment factory in Sialkot, in Karachi ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - A shocking and deadly mob attack on a Sri Lankan factory manager accused of blasphemy in eastern Pakistan last week prompted days of soul searching as the man's remains were flown to his home country. The violence, which was condemned by rights watchdogs including Amnesty International, also drew intense responses from politicians, celebrities and journalists on social media. "Ashamed!! Sick to my stomach!!," actress Mahira Khan wrote on Twitter shortly after the lynching. The mob of factory employees in Pakistan's Punjab province tortured and burned a Sri Lankan manager on Friday in an attack that Prime Minister Imran Khan said brought shame on the country. The killing raised alarm over the potential for accusations of blasphemy to fuel crowd violence in Pakistan, coming just weeks after at least seven policemen were killed in clashes with the radical TLP movement, which has built its identity on fighting what it sees as blasphemy. Mob killings over accusations of blasphemy are frequent in Muslim-majority Pakistan, where the crime can carry the death sentence. Other politicians and the country's powerful military also released statements condemning the attack. "Mob violence cannot be acceptable under any circumstance as (the) state has laws to deal with all offences," said Human Rights Minister Shireen Mazari on Twitter. The victim's body was returned to Sri Lankan officials over the weekend and then flown to his home country, a government source in Punjab province told Reuters. Punjab's police said arrests were continuing. "In the last 12 hours, police have arrested seven more key figures, including one involved in planning an attack on a Sri Lankan manager," they said in a

what are you encouraging parents who are home schooling their children to do because it seems as though we are between times as Penny said you are awaiting a new minister and a new cabinet and obviously that person needs to drive the process in terms of the national policy but you in the Western Cape are pretty free to do your own thing really. T: No. The draft you are referring to was withdrawn given the fact that national is now busy. In fact, there is a task team which has meet about two times up until now and there is another meeting in July at national. Perhaps I can just inform you that earlier in the month we had a meeting with CHE it group that had concerns about home education and we had quite a fruitful meeting, We alerted them to the national process but also alerted them to the need to have some kind of a unified voice for home education in the Western cape groups come together so that from time to time we can have an engagement with the Western Cape Education Department. J: Absolutely I understand the need for that, but also I think what is important to understand is the right to education vests in every child individually because of that it means that then it is not possible for groups to represent every child. Every child has a right to education in their own self. It is not a collective right that is a blanket one size fit all for everyone. Which makes the complication of honouring the individual child being free to pursue their individual rights as they would like, at the same time understanding that that makes it then very difficult to change anything nationally because then you have 100 000 children coming one by one. This makes life difficult. I am saying that because it is important to realise that that is really the essence of the difficulty of having groups representing individuals. I agree with you that it is useful that we should have some platforms and groups and some way that we can connect with each other and participate as required. I agree with that and absolutely see the need for that. T: From our side as a state department the big interest is for us to be in line with the Constitution and the South African Schools Act. That requires every child up to the age of 15 to be at school. The Schools Act also allows for the establishment of home schooling as well as independent schools. But overall, constitutionally, the WCED, is still the custodian of education despite the fact then you would have the right to home educate your child but as long as the department knows that this is what is happening with the child at a given point

But overall, constitutionally, the WCED, is still the custodian of education despite the fact then you would have the right to home educate your child but as long as the department knows that this is what is happening with the child at a given point
until the age of 15 or Grade 9, whichever comes first. I think those basic ground rules have to be established before we then say each home does as it wants to do in relation to the education of the child, in that given home. In other words parents will choose the kind of curriculum the parents wish the child should follow at home and that is the prerogative of the parent – that is not disputed at all. We do have some parents who take the view that takes it a bit further and say it is our right to educate our child and there is no need for registration. Once parents hold this view then it becomes difficult for the education department if they can’t say this is the number of children receiving home education in the province. And it means the monitoring function is not being fulfilled and they are getting roasted by the oversight committees and the portfolio committees. J: That is the heart of the debate for me, what is the role of a parent and what is the role of the state and where do we draw that line? In my email to Penny I put forward an example. I understand in the Western Cape there are two executive departments, one is education and one is health. The executive nature of the department means that really you operate under quite a lot of independence from national you can change things that are more in line with what is happening the WC. You have more autonomy and more power. I raise that because then in my email to Penny I said to her how is education different? Because when you look at health and how the authorities regulate the health of children in the Western Cape. They don’t set up policy that says this is how much the child should be eating, this is how many times the child must visit the doctor the is how much the child should grow every year. And even those things they do have in place it is voluntary. For example, immunisation. We need to protect our children from diseases they can pick up and die from. That is even more urgent than education, because if you are dead education becomes irrelevant. Even worse than that, if a child does not get immunised and they pick up, say, measles. Perhaps, though they themselves don’t die, they transmit the disease, but they effectively kill another child by passing that disease on because they were not immunised. Even in the law of immunisation it is voluntary. There is no law that can allow someone from the health department to come and immunise my child against our wishes. It is not

country - and who died young, murdered in circumstances so suspicious that contradictory theories continue to be advanced decades later. So Neil Jordan's eagerly awaited film on the life and death of Michael Collins inevitably recalls Oliver Stone's recent JFK as an ambitious and epic trawl through turbulent events in a country's past as it reflects on the achievements of its eponymous character and his place in history. Jordan's riveting and superbly crafted film stands as the most important film made in or about Ireland in the first century of film. Whereas Michael Collins, at 140 minutes, runs for an hour shorter than JFK, Jordan's film is, if anything, even more ambitious than Stone's, and it certainly is more coherent and focused. Like JFK, Michael Collins bristles with a driving kinetic energy, but its robust and imaginative visual style is so formidable that Jordan never needs to resort to the kind of stylistic intricacy employed by Stone. Most unusually for a political drama, Jordan brings a rare degree of objectivity to bear on his heartfelt and thoughtful treatment of complex issues in this admirable film. There is such a wealth of detail and incident to absorb and digest on seeing Michael Collins for the first time that, in an era of so manly grossly over extended movies, here is one which might profitably have been allowed to run longer. Even before it went into production in Dublin last summer, Jordan's film was generating a level of controversy in this part of the world to match the battle of words that followed the release of Stone's film in the US. However, while the memory and legacy of John Fitzgerald Kennedy looms large throughout Stone's film, JFK is principally concerned with exploring the various conspiracy theories that followed his assassination. In Jordan's film the character of Michael Collins is to the forefront of the cinematic drama from start to finish. A salutary history lesson with a burning relevance for the continuing consequences for this country of the events it depicts and dramatises, Neil Jordan's Michael Collins makes his points firmly and lucidly, with an admiration for its subject, what he did and what he tried to do, and it achieves this without resorting to the emotive trappings employed so often in political cinema to work up blood boiling indignation in a target audience. Collins is depicted as a determined pragmatist who is not without self doubt, a man with a capacity for violence and the ability to see when it had to stop and when political means and negotiation would be the only way forward. Jordan’s most adventurous and most accomplished film

What this course EXCELS at is teaching you the psychology of what it takes to get past
your mental and emotional blockages around wealth, entrepreneurship, and life in general. I literally just finished the course and am watching it for a second time because it's so good and is exactly what I need right now to get over my own emotional and psychological roadblocks to wealth. The negative reviews are most likely from people who didn't understand this was going to be about the inner game needed to succeed in business. If you're lacking the emotional or psychological empowerment to succeed, if you keep procrastinating on those most important business endeavors, or if you have no idea what's going on inside but you're not as wealthy as you want to be, this is the course for you! Alicia w/Beba Photography This course came at exactly the time that I needed it! : ) I have been learning from a finance coach at my church that money isn't bad--it's the LOVE of money that's bad and the root of all evil. I've been learning over the last few months that money is a tool and can be used for good and this course just re-confirmed all of that. It's made me feel more confident and comfortable about the steps I've been recently taking to increase my pricing and makes me feel more comfortable with earning money, period. It is great for breaking down the false misconceptions you might have about money and is recommended for anyone struggling to price themselves, who doubt their worth or who just need (like I did) that extra step of confirmation that you're moving in the right direction. I loved this course so much I purchased it. Best $59 ever spent! (Seriously?! $59? I feel like I'm stealing at that price! I felt like, "How can I NOT purchase this investment towards my financial future?") Money well spent. The workbook is an added bonus too! :) AHRC recognizes National Police Week, May 15-May 21, 2016 May 19, 2016 AHRC News & Views The American Human Rights Council (AHRC-USA) joins communities across the United States in commemoration of National Police Week, a time the country honors law enforcement officers nationwide who have died in the line of duty. This time of honor began in 1962 when President John F. Kennedy signed the proclamation dedicating May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day. The week following May 15 is now known as National Police Week. National Police Week is a time for thousands of law enforcement officers, colleagues and family and friends of fallen officers to gather in Washington, DC for national

The Vampire Diaries’ “Bringing Out the Dead” Greetings, Fangbangers, and welcome back! This week’s TVD installment may have been a bit low on romance, and grist for the respective Shipper Mills . . . . . . but, boy, did it make up for that with unparalleled Original Family Hijinks (which, of course, is the new Doppelganger Hijinks)! Julie Plec and Co., I beg of you . . . please give this family it’s own spinoff show . . . and while you are at it, you might want to make it a comedy. Because these guys are friggin hilarious! So, slip into your favorite dinner wear, and, for heaven’s sake, hide your stakes! Because you have just been invited to the sexiest, wackiest, most jaw-dropping dinner party on this show, since . . . well . . . the last time they had a dinner party, on this show . . . (As always, special thanks to my spectacular screencapper Andre, who is most definitely filled with awesomesauce! ;)) Cheap and Easy Ways to Renovate Your Home – starring Elijah “This would make a marvelous tree ornament.” Our bloody tale picks up, literally, right where it left off, prior to last week’s hiatus. Damon has returned the Original Family Coffins (except for one!) to Klaus. However, unbeknownst to the Original Hybrid at the time, one of those coffins contained a de-staked Elijah . . . Now Klaus finds himself face-to-face with his undead brother, who is literally wearing his heart on his sleeve . . . well, someone else’s heart, actually. To say that Elijah got up on the wrong side of the coffin, after sleeping away half the season, is an understatement, to say the least . . . Klaus is clearly surprised to see his brother, alive, kicking, and KICKING HIS ASS for that whole “murder and storage” thing. Now, as we all know, apologies have never exactly been Klaus’ strong suit. And while a simple, “I’m sorry I murdered you, and carted your rotting body around in a coffin for over 12 episodes,” would certainly have been in order . . . Klaus, instead

” Elizabeth says, “Not once has Francis asked me that…We will weather it. There are many far worse off than we…but Francis feels sorry for himself..I will not do so.” Francis has, we must assume, lost his mistress. Ross and Demelza also see Mark and Keren. Keren remains untouched by what has happens and only smirks. Ross knows there is trouble ahead for Mark. Ross tells Demelza, “The world is a harder place thanks to Julia. The stakes are higher, the loss, more painful…My life is more precious for being less certain and richer for being poorer.” When Demelza asks him what Resurgam means, he tells her, “I shall rise again.” “Shall we?,” she asks. “I hope so,” he tells her. “All’s Well that Ends Well” is the story of Helena. She is the daughter of a doctor and the ward of the Countess. Helena is in love with the son of the Countess, Betram, but he doesn’t not love her. When he leaves to serve the King of France, she follows him. She proposes to cure the sick King of France, and if she does not, she is willing to forfeit her life. If the king lives, she might marry any man in his court. The king lives and she chooses Betram. Although they marry, Betram rejects her. Betram wickedly says that he will only be truly her husband after she has borne his child and worn his ring. Then he leaves for war in Italy. Helena follows and then arranges to switches places with Diana, a woman that Betram desires to seduce. Helena returns to the home of the Countess who renounces her son. When Helen fakes her death Betram returns to woo a local woman. Diana breaks up the engagement and Helena reveals herself. Betram is so impressed by Helena’s efforts in the name of love, he declares his own love for her and then “All is well” at the end.

�t dictate local land use, yet on the other hand, it appears that the city could be financially punished for exercising our local land use in a way that displeases MTC,” Davis said. Brisbane’s Mayor Pro Tem Clarke Conway called the growth expectations for the city “ludicrous,” and demanded the joint agency’s executive committee members delay a vote on Plan Bay Area and its environmental impact report until after the city’s decision on the baylands project in late August. Scott Lane, a member of MTC’s policy advisory council, said he fully embraces Plan Bay Area and understands the Bay Area is already be something close to 300,000 housing units behind on new demand, but said putting such a heavy burden on one city amounts to “utter insanity” that puts MTC at risk of a lawsuit. Palo Alto’s Scharff said he believes the fears over Bay Area’s growth projections are “misguided,” and that the real threats to local control reside in Sacramento. The state legislature has proposed close to 130 different bills aimed at addressing the state’s housing shortage, and some aim to limit the ability of local governments to slow down or block approval of housing developments.

Home » ERISA Law » What is the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)? The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) is a federal law that protects employee pensions and provides rules for many health and welfare benefit plans such as long-term disability (LTD) insurance, life insurance, and health insurance. ERISA typically applies to employer sponsored group benefit plans, provided that the employer is not a church or government. Plans must provide participants with accurate information regarding the features and benefits of the plan, as well as its funding sources. Plan administrators who control plan assets must adhere to strict fiduciary responsibilities. Plans must establish a clear and well-defined appeal process for claimants who are denied benefits. Plan participants have the right to sue for benefits in federal court. ERISA preempts most state laws designed to protect consumers. This creates challenges for claimants whose benefits are wrongly terminated or denied. Claimants typically have to file an appeal to the very same insurance company that wrongly denied benefits. In addition, claimants typically must submit all evidence that they would need to win their case in court to the insurance company before the final appeal denial. This is because, with few exceptions, claimants are not allowed to add new medical or vocational evidence to the record after the final appeal denial. Therefore, it is important that you consult with an experienced ERISA attorney as early in the process as possible, before you file your appeal. The ERISA attorneys at Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick LTD understand the complexities of ERISA cases and are able to take on the powerful insurance companies. They may be able to handle your LTD, life insurance or health insurance appeal on a contingency basis, with no upfront cost to you.

EVEN FAITHFUL supporters of the Pogues doubted the group could survive the traumatic departure of front man Shane MacGowan in 1991. Yet, with backing vocalist and tin-whistle player Spider Stacy installed as lead singer, the Anglo-Irish septet managed to play a series of shows in Europe this past summer. "People came maybe expecting a wake or funeral," Stacy recalls, "and then the corpse wakes up!" Dropped by its long-time record label, and without the services of MacGowan or his temporary substitute, Joe Strummer, the Pogues had negligible life signs a year ago. But the remaining members gathered themselves up for a newly released album, "Waiting for Herb" (Chameleon) and, having proven their continued vitality back home, are looking forward to reconnecting with their large American cult audience through a series of performances here early next year. It was always clear the Pogues owed much of their success to the songwriting brilliance of MacGowan, a songwriter able to place the sensitive, lyrical side of the Irish temperament alongside the most scabrous, bleak outlook imaginable, delivering his poetry in the guttural croak of a burned-out barroom prophet. Unfortunately, MacGowan also lived out the cliched lifestyle of an Irish artist by abusing alcohol and blowing gigs and recording sessions. He never seemed more than one pint away from the possibility of oblivion. Two years ago, although MacGowan denied drinking was the problem, the band

any event, I’m not sure that such a deal would’ve had much effect on the 2022 and 2024 elections. Compromise would still have entailed months of contentious arguing over details. And Biden’s approval slump doesn’t seem to have much to do with the status of such legislation. It’s at least as likely that the pandemic, the widely panned withdrawal from Afghanistan, the economy, and other factors are what’s affecting his popularity. Of course, the whole thing could still fall apart. But if the bills do pass, don’t expect it to do anything magic for Biden in the polls or for Democrats in the midterms. There’s just not much evidence that voters grade incumbent presidents and parties on how productive they are. The real questions are whether Democrats are correct that the new policies they’re trying to enact will, like Obamacare, become sticky and difficult to repeal in the future — and whether they turn out to be successful or not. In regard to #1, I think this problem is so low on the pole of totem as to be buried six feet under the surface. Is it a problem - some. Is it our main problem. Not even in the realm of discussion. There is only one problem worth talking about and that is that roughly half the U.S. population is fine with eliminating Western (AKA liberal) democracy and is actively engaged in doing so in the United States. Everything else is unimportant compared to that threat. #19068 awm Location:Zurich, Switzerland Winstonm, on 2021-October-26, 13:25, said: There is only one problem worth talking about and that is that roughly half the U.S. population is fine with eliminating Western AKA liberal) democracy and is actively engaged in doing so in the United States.

I have more feeling for poetry now than I did when I was 16, but still I mostly ignore it. See how you feel about this. It is a lyric poem, no rhyme, no meter, but beautiful English. I read it often and recommend it. Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass. Take kindly to the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and

It is known as one of the greatest novels of the 19th century. Victor Hugo was responsible for this fictional yet historically-accurate (and if were being honest, depressing) masterpiece. Although the French title is commonly used even in English translations, there have been alternatives. II The novel focuses on the fictional character, Jean Valjeans struggles as an ex-convict and his attempts at redemption. Les Misrables tackles the history of France, touching on its politics, architecture, anti monarchism, philosophy, justice, religion, and the nature of love. Its popularity grew thanks to a proliferation of adaptations in different forms, including stage, film, television, and of course musicals. III Les Misrables was highly anticipated since Victor Hugo was considered one of the greatest poets in France. In 1860, The New York Times announced the novels forthcoming publication. Hugo did not allow the publishers to summarize the story. Instead, he asked them to focus more on his earlier successes. IV After a massive advertisement in April of 1862, the novels first two volumes were released. The following volumes were released in May of 1862.

number of foreign languages such as Portuguese, Italian, and Greek. I Miss Saigon is a musical that uses Giacomo Puccinis opera, Madame Butterfly as a basis. It discusses the tragic tale of an ill-fated romance between an Asian woman and an American man. The plot was set in the 1970s during the Vietnam War and tells the story of a marriage between a seventeen-year-old girl and an American Marine. II Miss Saigon was created by Claude-Michel Schnberg and Alain Boublil, along with the lyricist Richard Maltby Jr. It premiered in September of 1989 at the Theatre Royal in Londons Drury Lane. After 4,092 performances, it closed in October of 1999 and opened on Broadway in April of 1991. III After the Miss Saigon tour, the show set a world record for opening day ticket sales with more than 4m. Since then, Miss Saigon has been one of the longest-running shows on Broadway. This also paved the way for Schnberg and Boublil's second major success Les Misrables. IV Miss Saigon was inspired by a photograph in a magazine that Schnberg saw. In the photo, there was a Vietnamese mother at Tan Son Nhut Air Base about to board an airplane going to the United States, leaving her child at the departure gate. This became the center of the idea in the plot a mothers ultimate sacrifice. V The musical received negative criticism from those who claimed it was racist and sexist. In the first performance, the white actors Pryce and Burns played the Eurasian and Asian characters. They had to wear eye prostheses and apply bronzing cream in order to have an Asian look. This outraged some viewers who made comparisons to a minstrel show. VI Kims part was played by Lea Salonga in later versions, and the actress won both a Laurence Oliver and Tony Award. However, there was a controversy regarding Leas citizenship. She is a Filipina and the AEA wanted to prioritize its own members. However, they weren't able to find a replacement who could live up to her portrayal of the role, despite hosting extensive auditions. I The Nutcracker is a well known Russian ballet. The original choreographers of this ballet were Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov, and it was scored by none other than Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky the first Russian composer whose brilliant, lasting music had become a sensation internationally.

, secretary-treasurer for SD#20, says the school board will be paying back 100 per cent of savings during the strike to the provincial government. “(There was) $1,146,000 estimated savings in teacher wages and cost sensitive benefits,” she said of the 13 strike days in September. “(It is) about the same amount of savings as June. There were 13 strike days in September and 12 strike days in June, but in June, we also had to deduct 10 per cent for the remaining days due to the lock-out.” School boards across the province were instructed to return 80 per cent of budget savings from June. Verigin isn’t sure when the money will be going back, but she thinks she knows why they want 100 per cent back this time around. “My thoughts are that it is likely related to the Temporary Education Support Program (TESP) that the government promised parents,” she said, referring to the $40 per day of the strike being paid out to parents with kids age 12 and under. Parents who qualified and applied for the TESP will start receiving checks from the province by the end of October.

What a delight this book is, you can dip into it when you have a spare few minutes or indulge yourself of a wet day, sitting by the fire, gorging on it’s riches. You will find poems here from a diverse range of nationalities and viewpoints. From well- known poets such as Elizabeth Bishop and Pablo Neruda to unfamiliar gems from poets whose work is presented in translation, this collection covers an impressive span of human experiences and emotions. It manages to be intensely unique and personal while having that universality of feeling and experience that characterise all good literature and art. The personal in the poet speaks to us. The anthology is arranged in a satisfying set of themes, such as “Taste and See”, “Family”, “Love life”, “Being and loss”. It truly lives up to it’s title as

�re serious about building and designing a new home, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to get a few books on home design. Just like reading this article, if you can find a couple of tips or things that you haven’t really thought of yet and when you finally do, that information could turn out to be priceless one-day. Suppose your application fetches a record from a database and it needs to create an XML out of it. There are chances that your application uses an ORM framework such as Hibernate and the database record is fetched in the form of entity classes. Now you have two ways, iterate over the object properties and create each XML node manually using the XML DOM apis (How to create XML from Java program using DOM parser) or follow the approach detailed here. The method discussed here uses JAXB (Java Architecture For XML Binding). JAXB is a java framework which has the ability to map classes to XML elements and vice-versa. It provides options to convert java objects to XML and XML to java objects provided they have been properly mapped to each other. The process of converting objects to XML is called marshalling and the conversion of XML to objects is called unmarshalling (How to convert XML to object using JAXB) in JAXB terms. The below code converts the list of employees to XML. In order to convert object to XML, first create an object of javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext class using its static newInstancemethod. This method takes a list of one or more top-level classes. Top-level means which should be made the root of generated XML. In our case, it is Employees. Object of javax.xml.bind.JAXBContextis then used to create an object of javax.xml.bind.Marshallar which is responsible for converting java object graph to XML. Its marshalmethod takes the final object which contains all the data to be written to an XML and a java.io.Writerobject. Thus object of any class which extends java.io.Writermay be passed to this method. In above example we pass an object of java.io.StringWriterand the result of marshalling is written to the String which is then written to the file. In order to directly write to a file without using a String, just pass a java.io.FileWriterobject with the appropriate file path to the

If your XML nodes need to have attributes such as of the form <Employee id="1">then this may be achieved by adding an idfield to Employee class and annotating it with @XmlAttributeannotation. Even if a field in your JAXB annotated classes is not annotated with @XmlElementannotation, it is included in the generated XML by default. If you want to skip a field from being included in the XML, mark it with @XmlTransientannotation. Nodes will be generated by the field or class names in lower-case by default. To change the names of generated nodes, use name attribute alongwith @XmlRootElementor@XmlElementannotations.

and so getting better effort and preventing the team from packing it in early or not even trying is a great accomplishment.Vaughn's biggest struggle is the balance between keeping the team on the floor that will help the team win games and developing the young players on the roster. That is not easy to do. Especially when there is an 82-game schedule and veterans management would probably like to see showcased for trade purposes. Some of it is the constraints of the rosters. Some of it, though, is just befuddling. Like for struggling players, it is a long season. I suspect these issues get resolved as the year goes on. But that does not alleviate tanking concerns -- I'm sorry, "strategic losing" -- nor does it put the team in the best position to win games. It seems like he is trying too hard to straddle the line between winning and development without committing one way or the other at this point. Lashbrook- Vaughn's stuck in this weird middle ground where no matter what he does, he can't make everyone happy. There are so many young guys on the roster, but only five people can play at a time (unless you're Louisiana-Lafayette) and that's something Vaughn can't escape. He's been very reliant on Jason Maxiell and Ronnie Price, which is throwing a lot of fans by surprise, especially when Doron Lamb and Kyle O'Quinn--two of Orlando's young guys--can produce nearly the same results. The real issue is how he's using Harkless. Harkless gave Orlando great production early, but fell off a bit, was benched and now is barely touching the floor. It's just weird to see Vaughn utilizing three guard lineups and Jason Maxiell, rather than using Harkless, a versatile guy Magic fans were really looking forward to before the season started. How close is this team to being a playoff team? Palmer- Not close. The defense and the offense are both atrocious. Coach might not be up to par, but the roster certainly isn't up to par. To top it off don't be shocked if they trade Arron Afflalo and Jameer Nelson and get even worse. If they hit big in the draft and the young guys improve they're still 2 years at least away from competing. Oliver- A year or two, I think. They need another piece or two. Point guard is still in flux, and no one knows

which veterans will be here come season's end. Tobias Harris is also a question mark as of now. They'll get there soon, but it shouldn't be this season Rossman-Reich- Much closer than their record suggests, even in the awful Eastern Conference. The Magic need a "star" player who can create offense for himself and for others. Maybe that is Victor Oladipo, I don't think it is. Maybe Arron Afflalo can take that leap. I think he is better as a second or third option who can create a little in 1-on-1 but is more of a catch-and-shoot guy and capable defensive player. Orlando needs its young guys to develop a little bit more before they can challenge for the Playoffs and they need that star. It might come in this year's Draft or they might have to go out and grab one in free agency when they have cap room in 2015. It is just going to take some patience to get there as these guys grow. Lashbrook- Two years away, with next year being a possibility depending on who they nab in the draft. Orlando is very much on the right track and the East is pitiful, but I can't imagine the team using too much money next summer on borderline All-Stars in the offseason. The draft, with two first round picks, will say a lot about Hennigan's plan. Twitter accounts of those involved: Thanks to everybody involved!

with a 5 abreast seating. Threats from the new Embraer jets, which had a significant head start, and the then Fairchild-Dornier’s 50-110 seat regional jetliners, forced Bombardier to rethink the BRJ program. Late 1999, despite having further matured the design of its “paper airplanes”, Bombardier switched focus from the BRJ-X-90 to the stretched CRJ700: the 90 seat CRJ 900. According to Michael Graff, the then President of Bombardier Aerospace, “ They (airlines) have told us that a simple stretch of the CRJ 700series rather than an all new aircraft in the 90 seat category will meet their requirements for increased capacity at reduced acquisition and operating costs” Mid 2000, although the BRJ-X-90 was killed, the entire BRJ program was suspended, but never cancelled. In the March of 2004, the 114 seat Embraer 190 took to the skies on its first flight, and Bombardier had no airplane to compete in that class. In July of the same year, Bombardier announced the development of the C Series as a replacement for the shelved BRJ-X project. The C Series then had two variants: the 125 seat CS110 and the 145 seat CS130. But after failing to secure significant orders, and in the light of the certification of the Embraer 190 in 2005, the program was shelved in early 2006, and the focus again shifted to lengthening the CRJ series, to a 100 seat CRJ1000. In the July of 2006, EASA certified the 124 passenger Embraer 195, competing directly with the shelved CS110. Bombardier was trailing its only significant regional jet competitor, Embraer, with no competing airplane. Early 2007, Bombardier re-commenced work on the C Series program. In the July of 2008, Bombardier officially launched the C Series, with a letter of interest for 60 aircraft and 30 options from Lufthansa. Having the right product at the right time bode well for the Brazilian airframer. The CRJ 700, 900 and 1000 combined have orders (as of 30 June 2013) of 723 airplanes, of which 91 are unfulfilled. On the other hand, the Brazilian Embraer E-Jets, comprising the E-170/175 and 190/195 families, have total
with a 5 abreast seating. Threats from the new Embraer jets, which had a significant head start, and the then Fairchild-Dornier’s 50-110 seat regional jetliners, forced Bombardier to rethink the BRJ program. Late 1999, despite having further matured the design of its “paper airplanes”, Bombardier switched focus from the BRJ-X-90 to the stretched CRJ700: the 90 seat CRJ 900. According to Michael Graff, the then President of Bombardier Aerospace, “ They (airlines) have told us that a simple stretch of the CRJ 700series rather than an all new aircraft in the 90 seat category will meet their requirements for increased capacity at reduced acquisition and operating costs” Mid 2000, although the BRJ-X-90 was killed, the entire BRJ program was suspended, but never cancelled. In the March of 2004, the 114 seat Embraer 190 took to the skies on its first flight, and Bombardier had no airplane to compete in that class. In July of the same year, Bombardier announced the development of the C Series as a replacement for the shelved BRJ-X project. The C Series then had two variants: the 125 seat CS110 and the 145 seat CS130. But after failing to secure significant orders, and in the light of the certification of the Embraer 190 in 2005, the program was shelved in early 2006, and the focus again shifted to lengthening the CRJ series, to a 100 seat CRJ1000. In the July of 2006, EASA certified the 124 passenger Embraer 195, competing directly with the shelved CS110.

On the other hand, the Brazilian Embraer E-Jets, comprising the E-170/175 and 190/195 families, have total
firm orders of 1213, of which 266 are unfulfilled. Bombardier had to stop trailing and start leading, and focus on the clean sheet C Series was the only way out. *This section is part of a much bigger, comprehensive article on the C-Series by The Flying Engineer. New Judgment: Okpabi & Ors v Royal Dutch Shell Plc & Anor [2021] UKSC 3 Royal Dutch Shell Plc (‘RDS’) is the parent company of the Shell group of companies, incorporated in the UK. The Shell Petroleum Company of Nigeria Limited (‘SPDC’, the other Respondent) is an exploration and production company incorporated in Nigeria and is a subsidiary of RDS. The Appellants (some 42,500 people) are citizens of Nigeria and inhabitants of the areas allegedly affected by oil leaks from pipelines and associated infrastructure, that SPDC operates on behalf of an unincorporated joint venture in which numerous participating interests are held, in and around the Niger Delta. The leaks are said to have impacted their lives, health and local environment. They contend that the Respondents are responsible. The claims against RDS and SPDC are based on the tort of negligence under the common law of Nigeria which, for present purposes, is to be regarded as the same as the law of England and Wales. The claim against RDS is brought on the basis that RDS owed the claimants a duty of care either because it exercised significant control over material aspects of SPDC’s operations and/or assumed responsibility for SPDC’s operations. RDS applied under CPR Part 11(1) for orders declaring that the court had no jurisdiction to try the claims against it, or should not exercise such jurisdiction as it had. The Supreme Court has since clarified the law in this area, including by reference to the CA’s decision in this case, in Vedanta Resources PLC and another (Appellants) v Lungowe and others (Respondents) [2019] UKSC 20. At first instance Fraser J held that there was no arguable case that RDS owed the Appellants a duty of care. The Appellants appealed to the Court of Appeal against the judgment and Order of Fraser J. The Court of Appeal upheld the decision of Fraser J. The Appellant appealed to the Supreme Court to decide whether and in what circumstances the UK-domiciled parent company of a multi-national group of
