SAN DIEGO & PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Capstan Therapeutics, Inc., a biotechnology company dedicated to developing and delivering precise in vivo cell engineering to patients, launched today with $165 million in financing to build on the foundational insights of world-renowned leaders in mRNA and cell therapy, combining the power of cell therapy with the precision of genetic medicines to help bring safer, first-in-class medicines to more patients in multiple indications.
Capstan’s foundational precision in vivo engineering technology builds on research conducted in the laboratories of world-renowned mRNA and cell therapy scientists at the University of Pennsylvania.
Capstan’s funding includes a recently closed $102 million Series A financing led by Pfizer Ventures and joined by Leaps by Bayer, Eli Lilly and Company, Bristol Myers Squibb, Polaris Partners, Alexandria Venture Investments, and all existing investors, which follows a $63 million seed financing led by Novartis Venture Fund and OrbiMed and joined by RA Capital, and Vida Ventures in November 2021.
Advancing Breakthrough Therapies through Precision in vivo Engineering
The company plans to use the funds to further its mission of advancing the clinical promise of cell-based therapies by enabling precise in vivo engineering of cells with payloads necessary to benefit patients across multiple disease categories. Capstan’s modular platform leverages the biological and technological expertise of its founding scientists and includes proprietary targeted lipid nanoparticles (tLNP) technology, a suite of targeting moieties to mediate cell type-specific uptake, and disease-specific mRNA payloads aimed at directly engineering, or ablating pathogenic cells through in vivo generated CAR T cells.
Capstan is prioritizing programs based on the potential to transform clinical standards of care. The company’s initial efforts will focus on developing first-in-class in vivo CAR therapies, with the goal to deliver treatments in an outpatient setting, for patients who have diseases for which there are no effective treatments. Capstan also plans to leverage its precision delivery and engineering technology to advance new therapies for certain monogenic blood disorders.
Visionary Team of Accomplished Executives Poised to Deliver a Transformational Approach
Capstan is also pleased to announce that Laura Shawver, Ph.D., has joined the company as President and Chief Executive Officer. Dr. Shawver brings more than 20 years of experience in executive leadership positions in oncology and other serious diseases to this role, most recently serving as CEO of Silverback Therapeutics and President and CEO of Synthorx.
“Our ambition at Capstan is to invent new clinical paradigms through targeted in vivo reprogramming of cells,” said Dr. Shawver. “Our founding scientific and operational team is purpose-built to advance programs to the clinic that unite decades of combined experience in groundbreaking CAR therapies with the latest advances in mRNA delivery technology. We are also fortunate to have a distinguished investor syndicate that understands the cell therapy landscape and recognizes the potential of this innovative approach. I am thrilled to lead this team as we work toward making this vision a reality for patients.”
“Laura is an exceptional leader with a well-established track record in drug development and passion for addressing unmet needs in oncology and other serious diseases,” said Michael Baran, Ph.D., Partner, Pfizer Ventures. “We are delighted to have someone of Laura’s caliber captain this exciting next chapter for Capstan to help unlock the potential of this transformative approach for patients.”
Dr. Shawver joins an accomplished leadership team of industry veterans who have been at the forefront of cell and gene therapy, including Adrian Bot, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer, formerly Global Head and Vice President of Translational Medicine at Kite, a Gilead Company and previously Chief Scientific Officer at Kite Pharma; and Priya Karmali, Ph.D., Chief Technology Officer, who has over two decades of experience in the field of lipid nanoparticle mediated nucleic acid delivery technologies.
Building on Pioneering Work of World-Renowned Scientific Founders
“Capstan builds on a deep history of collaborative research in mRNA-enabled and CAR-based medicines by our incredible group of scientific founders,” said Christian Homsy, M.D., MBA, Capstan’s founding CEO. “The company was established to deliver on the promise of cell-based medicines, and with Laura at the helm, is well-positioned to make rapid progress towards clinical evaluation.”
The company’s scientific founders include several of the experts from the University of Pennsylvania who authored two landmark studies establishing preclinical proof-of-concept for non-viral, in vivo CAR-T therapy that Capstan plans to develop and advance toward the clinic. A 2019 Nature publication demonstrated the preclinical use of ex vivo CAR-T cell therapy against FAP, a fibrosis-related target. A follow-on study published in Science earlier this year built on these earlier results and demonstrated the production of functional CAR-T cells in vivo in a mouse model following a single IV administration of an mRNA encoding an anti-FAP CAR packaged in CD5-targeted-LNPs. The scientific founders span diverse areas of research expertise:
Preclinical translation – Jonathan Epstein, M.D. and Haig Aghajanian, Ph.D. (Dr. Aghajanian is now a Capstan employee.)
Cell engineering – Carl June, M.D. and Bruce Levine, Ph.D.
mRNA and targeted LNP technologies – Drew Weissman, M.D., Ph.D. and Hamideh Parhiz, Pharm.D., Ph.D.
Immunology and Fibrosis – Ellen Puré, Ph.D. and Steven Albelda, M.D.
“Capstan is uniting several recent life science technological advances in a manner that can hopefully unlock the potential of these technologies to develop new medicines for patients across a wider range of diseases,” said Drew Weissman, M.D., Ph.D., Co-Founder of Capstan, who serves as the Roberts Family Professor in Vaccine Research and Director of the Penn Institute for RNA Innovation in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, and co-recipient of the 2021 Lasker-DeBakey Clinical Medical Research Award.
“Research conducted at Penn demonstrates the tremendous promise of harnessing mRNA and targeted LNP delivery to train a patient’s body to make CAR-T cells in vivo, potentially creating new treatment options,” said Jonathan Epstein, M.D., Chief Scientific Officer at Penn’s Perelman School of Medicine. “We believe this approach has the potential to make an important impact not only in oncology, but also in fibrosis and many other diseases. My fellow scientific co-founders and I all look forward to actively partnering with Capstan in our collaborative effort to develop medicines that may benefit patients around the world.”

For thousands of years, scientists and explorers have searched every corner of the globe in an attempt to find that lost kingdom, Atlantis. But what if Atlantis was closer than you thought? A group of carefully selected campers will set off in hope of Discovering Atlantis. There will be challenges and quests, riddles and clues, and our young explorers will work together to uncover the lost city of Atlantis. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12935 | {"url": "https://www.campwidji.org/summer-camps/discovering-atlantis", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.campwidji.org", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:06:07Z", "digest": "sha1:GTZ3D5LGFB6IWS5V6NW4HSV3B4DWTCIF"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 577, 577.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 577, 2969.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 577, 3.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 577, 135.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 577, 0.92]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 577, 308.2]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 577, 0.41121495]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 577, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 577, 0.1212766]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 577, 0.00934579]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 577, 0.11214953]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 577, 0.70526316]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 577, 4.94736842]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 577, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 577, 4.01578596]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 577, 95.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 21, 0.0], [21, 59, 0.0], [59, 577, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 21, 0.0], [21, 59, 0.0], [59, 577, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 21, 2.0], [21, 59, 4.0], [59, 577, 89.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 21, 0.0], [21, 59, 0.0], [59, 577, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 21, 0.0], [21, 59, 0.0], [59, 577, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 21, 0.0952381], [21, 59, 0.10526316], [59, 577, 0.01930502]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 577, 0.69829595]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 577, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 577, 0.05325079]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 577, 3.62129564]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 577, 10.21264763]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 577, -5.54984779]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 577, 5.0]]} |
It has never been easier to expand your staffing business globally. Learn how.
Jan Jedlinski: Hello, everyone. Welcome back to the stage four hour last but not least session hosted by Jeff with Dave and Tim who will talk about building a global staffing organization and using the current synergies to make a big staffing business globally. I will hand over to Jeff and enjoy the session and then join us after the session for the World Staffing Awards ceremony, where we will show the top 15 staffing owners and operators to watch for the next year. Enjoy and see you later.
Tim Ozier: Thank you.
Jeff Nugent: Thanks very much, Jan. Excited to be here guys, and being the final session of the day. We're going to have to bring the energy. And in a traditional conference I would always announce we're between the audience and the cocktails reception.
So if you are feeling like a cocktail, please jump on the bandwagon for cocktail while you listened to us. We won't want to hold you up. All right. So the formal session of the day It's amazing to be part of the World's Staffing Summit. It's been an amazing day of content from diversity to technology to remote work.
The content has been second to none and been amazing to be part of it. Want to thank the Gustav team and the World Staffing Summit for putting this on and bringing us all together. I know with the current circumstances, it's a nice to see a lot of friendly faces over the day that we have seen at different venues over the years and conferences.
So, without further ado wanted to bring on. The last second here, which is entitled, it's never been easier to take your staffing business global. And you know, what has really come about in the recent years this past year, the idea of border and location is having less and less relevance. And so. I'm happy to present on this topic. And I've got some great presenters that are on our panel here today. We've done Dave Nerz from NPAworldwide global networks networks. And we've got Tim Oier from. I always get that wrong, Dave, because I come from Canada and I give the, the Quebec accent on that, but it could be Ozeir or Ozier your but, uh, I know you're going to correct me is the Senior Director at the MRI networks.
So with everything
Tim Ozier: Just calling early,
Jeff Nugent: I wanted to have you guys introduce yourselves and talk a little bit about your organizations because they're very unique. In the aspect of bringing firms together to help each other expand their businesses and what you both experienced and why you're here today, expand their businesses globally.
So Dave, take it away.
Dave Nerz: Thanks a lot, Tim or Jeff. I really appreciate. And Hey, before I introduced myself, I want to thank Jan and the people at Gustav. I mean, it really is wonderful to see other people. I know we're all kind of trapped in our houses and doing our deal. But it is great to see other people.
My name is Dave Nerz. I am president of NPA worldwide. NPA. Worldwide is a recruitment network. It's a membership organization. Our members are the owners of the network that we run here. And we've been around for 65 years and our purpose is to help facilitate split placements between our members with that.
You're muted Tim. Sorry.
Tim Ozier: That's a tough way to start off for sure. Is that better? Yes. And it is Tim Osier, but again, call me whatever, just as long as you call me early in the opportunity. So yeah, I work for MRI network. We are a global organization of franchise owners. We have about 400 network members in the us and across the globe.
Also been around for a while. Dave we were founded in 1965. I don't know where that puts us now, somewhere in the neighborhood of 60 years or so. Right. So, uh, and yeah, we, like I said, we're, we are global and we are always looking for opportunities to expand our business, both domestically and with our clients and new clients overseas as well, too.
Dave Nerz: So Jeff you're muted now, but just to build, on the, you wanted us to give a little background on our organization. So as Tim pointed out, they're a large organization and we happened to be large in a different kind of way, because we're about 570 members on a global basis. A little bit more, a little bit less than two 3rds of those in north America and the rest spread around the world.
But each, each member is an independent owner of a recruitment business. Some of them do pure contingent search, some do retain some do staffings. It's a mixed bag in terms of what each member does. And it kind of depends on their locations in some cases and their specialties. So we work a wide range of specialties.
Anywhere from accounting finance across the IT, Engineering, Manufacturing Chemical Process, Legal, Agribusiness, a bunch of different things. So, what's nice is from a global standpoint, they have a peer network that they can work with if they need. To play somebody in Europe. They have people they can work with.
If there's somebody in Europe, the ones that play somebody in Asia, they have a connection that they can make. And that's one of the things that makes the global nature of business a little bit easier nowadays. But with that, I'll turn it over to you and you maybe want to expand on MRI.
Tim Ozier: Yeah, thanks.
Thanks Dave. So, MRI is really known more for its permanent placement. Executive search is really where, where we've kind of built our reputation that's in our DNA. That's how we were founded way back in the day by our founder, Alan Schellenberg who many people don't know, he was one of the first people to do company paid fees.
Remember back in the day the candidate used to have to pay the fee for perm placement and Allan Schoenberg was one of the leaders of the company paid fee. So I know we're all happy about that. About that transition. But as I said, we do mainly perm place. That's where we're mainly known for. I run our contract staffing division.
So we have a very robust contract staffing division and the way that it works, it's kind of interesting. So as I mentioned, we have about 400 different network members, franchises across the globe. Any contractors that are placed on assignment through our network members actually come through me that come through MRI contract staffing.
We're kind of the single point of contact. We signed the contracts. The well, along with our back office partner, the employer of record responsibility. So we try to make it as simple and as painless as possible for our network members to offer contract staffing services to their clients. Because as you guys both know, you know, contracting is a very different beast.
As far as the legal, the employee, you know, the employment law the tax implications, all that stuff that goes hand in hand with contract staffing as well.
Jeff Nugent: For sure. Well, and, and on this session, we want to have kind of an open discussion. And as, as questions come in from the audience, we'll also bring, bring them in to set the kind of the groundwork we wanted to say.
Talk about the why, why are you starting to see the opportunities continue to expand in such an exponential. Fashion that makes it make sense for organizations to take their business global. Talk about some of the pitfalls and some of the obstacles that, you know, you can encounter. Well, well dealing with taking a staffing business mobile and then of course, where there's obstacles, there's always solutions, right.
And want to talk about actually some of the ease of doing business globally now. There's solutions out there and various ways to, to deal with the various potential obstacles that, that are out there. And then if there's any case studies of, of members that you have within your organizations that have, have, you know, said, okay, let's, let's attack this global business and, and go after it. It'd be great to hear from you guys, some success stories as well. So, you know, Thinking about going global, you know, there, when the audience is, is really a global audience, which has been fantastic, but the SIA stats are it's about a $3.6 trillion market. Now that's out there in the contingent workforce and the contract staffing business and the gig economy altogether, the US makes up about 30% of it which is significant, but when you only think it's 30%, wow. There's a big market out there. And SIA stats, there is about 14 major markets out there that make up about 87% of the total market including Japan, UK, France, Germany the Netherlands, Canada and Australia, some fairly sizable markets that have a lot of spend and usage of staffing and recruiter services.
So there is a big market out there outside of your borders. So whoever's listning. Wherever you are. Looking outside of your borders has never been easier and there's lots of opportunities to increase your business. The, the, the venue we're talking today on a remote basis around the world is, is a Testament to that.
And so Dave and Tim you can trade off on this, but what are some of the opportunities and why are, why are your members really starting to think global? Is it a client driven basis? Is it demographics? Is it the talent? What are some of the trends in the opportunities? Yeah. Y
Tim Ozier: if you want, I'll, I'll kind of that, that was a lot to unravel there.
Jeff. So piece by piece. First of all, the title of our, of our, of our session, it's never been easier. So I've been doing this for eight years internationally domestic contract staffing for a lot longer than that. About 25. I don't know what it was like eight years ago. But it's not easy now. So we should probably, you know, maybe take the time is absolutely right.
The market is huge that it's gotten, it's even more important for us to focus on international business, for sure. To keep our clients and our candidates happy. But you know, to say it's easy. Yeah. It's not easy. Per se, um, because especially on the contract staffing side, I think it's a little bit different than the permanent.
But with contract staffing, you've got so many legal international tax situations you know, uh, immigration laws things like that. So there are a lot of moving pieces to the business. But if you align with with a good partner that can help you kind of work your way. The back alleys of all those different areas that you might you know, have to deal with, then you'll be in good shape.
I think one thing about that, I I've said frequently about the business I'm in contract staffing and interim solutions is it's really kind of like two different businesses. There's the talent acquisition. You know, you have to go find your client and find your candidate and make that match. That's what we do as recruiters, you know, and that's where we really add value is by finding high quality people to put, to work for our clients.
But there's that whole other piece, that whole very important piece of pain and billing and collecting and making sure that we're complying with all of the rules and regulations, either in the U S or elsewhere. So it's almost like two different, two different businesses you have to master. You've got to be good at finding the people, first of all, but you have to be darn good at making sure that we're paying them and billing and compliant with all the rules and regulations that we have to in the international marketplace.
Jeff Nugent: So, so why are some of the companies that you work with going global or, or seeing the opportunities to test the waters and take that step into the unknown with some of those pitfalls and obstacles?
Dave Nerz: Well, let me take a shot at that one, Jeff. And I would say if you're looking for like the next hot market to chase, this is not it.
As Tim pointed out, this is difficult work and has been for a long period of time. So I think what drives you there is a climb. Yeah, or a candidate and it it's, it's an opportunity at this point. I would say that there's a lot of people who work in the staffing and recruitment space that don't talk about, international work, global placement with their clients, because at some point your client is going to come across the need. They know need to know that you have that ability. And you're really a problem solver for them at that point because the person HR person that works up wakes up in the UK on Thursday morning, and somebody tells them they need to have temporary contract assigment for some sort of work in Canada within two weeks, that's a problem. And you can solve that for them if you're in that conversation with them early. So I would say what's driving this opportunity would be support of a client. And the other thing that goes along with that, if you're not talking to your clients about your capabilities and putting some sort of global capability together, then they're going to be bringing competitors into your account.
So they're going to need to solve this problem and it's not going to be used solving it. So you are going to have a new competitor from a different location. Who's now within your account. So I'd say it's, it's a lot of cases it's client driven is what's making this happen to him and Jeff.
Tim Ozier: Yeah, I think you're spot on Dave.
I think another thing, I mean, obviously. You know, personally globalization and, you know, in some places that's not the most favorite word. I'm a big fan of globalization. I think the world is getting smaller and we're all, you know, becoming part of the global community for sure. Jeff getting back to one of your first questions, I mean, what has driven a lot of this is looking for cheaper labor solutions, obviously, right?
He used to work in the, in the bay area. And, you know, have a lot of a high-tech clients that were looking for primarily in a lot of cases developers, you know, coders, etc, that they could find at a way, way less expensive in other countries than they could in the US. So that led to kind of, you know, you might've heard like the follow the SUN model where these big global companies really like to have operations and, you know, around the world to take advantage of time zone differences, labor cost, differences, etc, and really, you know, kind of connect.
Their logistical supply chain. So I think the, the differences in the cost of labor is what really drove this. But I love what Dave said. You know, I've always said the best place to get new business is with existing clients. So you already have your inroads made with your existing customers. You you've earned their trust.
You know, you've got great relationships, but they might not well know that we can provide international solutions as well too. So you have to talk that up all the time. I think that's, you know, that's kind of the most common model for us is where we're working with. A company in the US that has international needs and we say, Hey, we can help you there too. And then that develops into a good opportunity.
Jeff Nugent: Yeah. And yet there was a lot of conversation and other sessions around vendor consolidation and optimization. And when that happens in these procurement models that often bubbles up to who can do the most for us, And, and in a lot of cases, if it's an international or multinational client, they will look to the multi-national capabilities of their vendor communities to say, well, if you can help us in 10 different countries versus just one that that will rank you higher in these procurement mechanisms and especially when they're starting to roll out the large MSP programs and the contingent workforce programs around the world now to, to gain visibility into their total spend worldwide and their head count and risk and all those other things that traditional programs that have centralized wanted to do.
They're going to look to you as the vendors, right? To say, can you help us in these multiple locations? So you guys are 100% correct on the client need. And being able to offer that as is fantastic.
Dave Nerz: I I'd say the other reality, that's gonna change things a lot in the short term is, COVID. Um, so what's happened around the world.
I was just communicating with one of our former board directors today and he's in Indonesia. He worked in an office forever and ever. And now he's been at home for a year. We've have, I don't know how many of us are now working from home. Our employers, our managers, our leaders. Didn't believe we were working when we were home at one point that myth is, has been broken.
And I think the permanence of place is less important to employers than it was in years past. That's going to change the way they look at their labor forces. So if you think back, you know, 10 years ago, people were looking outside of their resident markets or lower cost labor, or things like accounting or overnight engineering or ad development work, or all sorts of things were being done in remote markets because of labor costs.
And there were only big companies that had confidence in doing that. But now. Managers and companies have found that they can have remote workforces and still be full functioning, maybe even more productive. In some cases it's going to open up a world of opportunity. No pun intended.
Jeff Nugent: Yeah. It really has accelerated that business, the business models that we're starting to take get some traction the last year has truly accelerated a number of different business models and the way we're starting to think about work as well. I, you know, we, in our industry, in the staffing industry are always thinking about what's the future of work look like, but when the traditional USA today or Forbes magazine or all of the media out there, they're all talking about, what's the future of work going to look like?
Because quite honestly, the way we work changed overnight in March, we all. Started to do this. And, and I often will, will laugh, but I will get up in the morning and I say, I'm gonna go zoom around the world, which would have taken four different flights and three days of travel from here to there to everywhere.
And a lot of logistics. And time consumption, whereas I can wake up in the morning and be in 15 different countries throughout the day. So really the idea of how we're going to work and the talent pools as well. So it's finding clients, how will you find global clients? Well, use your existing client base to maybe bring you international or vice versa.
You know, good prospectors now can hop on a zoom call with someone in the UK. And it's not about taking them to the coffee shop anymore because the coffee shop is closed with most of the lockdowns around the world, but, and they can then say, Hey, give their value prop to someone in a different jurisdiction very quickly.
So you know, it really has opened up your prospecting to a very different. A much larger prospect list than just your local community providing local type talent pools. So, you know, the opportunity is there to expand and different ideas on how to expand some of the, the potential. Obstacles or other things that your, your members or you've seen through experience in, in going global is, you know, there's also the talent side of it.
And I think I've answered some of the questioning around talent pools. But it used to be very much, you would want a local recruiter doing the recruitment locally because. They were in that network. They had had history there and there was lots of referrals on a personalized basis. You know, how has that changed now?
And is, is that making it easier to recruit globally with the different ways we're doing business now with remote work, remote talent easier to access through technology. What are some ideas on finding talent as, as a big part of, because that's our assets that we sell to the clients
Mute, Can't hear you.
Dave Nerz: Okay. Tim's muted. I mean, I, I think that Jeff, I think talent obviously needs to be found locally. I mean, you're moving talent is, is not, I I've not seen any evidence of that being a reality. So in every case, I mean the market where you want people has to be the market where you look for people, you don't, you don't define the location for the job and then find people to move to.
That's not really effective in, in in employment or in recruitment. So I think a lot of cases, you're either going to have to develop that capability to find local talent someplace outside of your local market. Or you're going to have to develop connections with people who can work with you to do that.
And Tim, you might have some different perspective on that. Okay.
Okay. We'll look, we'll look on that one. Yep. So, Jeff, I mean, I would, I would just say that some of the things that have eased this a little bit is. This is a great example of it today. I mean, people have gotten comfortable with video communication technology. I can tell you that, you know, we have a 570 plus member network.
And at one point I suggested that we have more media video meetings and somebody wanted to hit me over the head because it was a crazy idea. It was complicated. It was intimidating. People have gotten really used to it. So video interviewing is a, you know, a much more common thing. So you don't, you don't have to be around the corner from somebody to interview them anymore.
And that, I mean, previously, you know, a lot of recruiters brought people in house to interview them just not in necessity anymore. And that, that really helps a lot. That you know, that that has changed in a very recent times. I would say in the last year it's become very commonplace. I, there's still some things that are quite difficult for people, you know, time is, is a difficult one.
You know, different time zones. I dunno, I turned my phone off at a certain point because I was getting tired of the, you know, early morning calls, but time zones are real and they're a challenge to navigate through. So, you know, there's great tools for working through that too. All right.
Tim Ozier: Any luck?
Can you hear me? Okay. I swear. I'm familiar with the microphone icon. I did not have it viewed it. I don't know what was going on there, but I got a little bit of a different spin on this. I would say. You know, we, we use the term easy. I do agree that it's easier than ever to find talent all over the world.
I mean, we've got recruiters that sit in. I'll give you an example of Shreveport Louisiana. One of my top recruiters works out of street port, and he finds people in Israel and Australia in Belgium, in Germany, you name it. He is fantastic. And you don't have to be there. However, On the contract staffing side, there are many countries where you do have to have a brick and mortar location in that country to legally employ contractors.
So it's definitely kind of that push and pull again. Yeah. We can find them for you from anywhere, but we might not need that. We might need to have a local company to run them through, to be that local contact based upon those local in country laws.
Jeff Nugent: Well, and, and we've actually seen that with a lot of our clients where they had American, they had international talent.
On work visas in the U S and then as the pandemic rolled out and the international workers went through their home countries, they, the clients were still wanting to engage with them, but they were going to engage them in, in Israel, Italy, or Germany, or you name it and You can do that, but you have to know how to employ them in those international locations.
You can't pay them through your us payroll, pay us for emergencies for an international employee. Right. You'll have to employ them in their home country and do the remittances in those countries. So, finding solutions around that is key, right?
Tim Ozier: Hey, Jeff, you just mentioned something really important to hold pain and billing in the same currency, because it doesn't always work out that way.
You have to make do, when you talk to your clients, you're letting them know, Hey, if I'm going to pay and, you know, Australian dollars, we want to bill you in Australian dollars too, to avoid any type of negative impact from exchange, rate fluctuations and stuff like that. So, super important to get those lined up.
Jeff Nugent: Yeah, for sure. And so, I know there's solutions out there, but I'm going to bring it up to you guys to talk about some of the solutions you've seen to some of these unique situations as you go across international boundaries, some of the solutions you've seen out there. To help with certain issues around currency or employment law or payroll taxes.
How have different members in your organizations helped out? Got, are there solutions out there?
Dave Nerz: Well, I mean, personally, I feel that you ought to do what you do well, and hopefully that's recruting. and you gotta be recruiting the right people to fill the roles and you ought to let somebody else, and in Tim's case, it's built into the network, but in other cases you have to look outside and you have to find somebody that what they do is they function as employer record, or, you know, the, they handle the, the payments and the tax processing and all of that.
I, I don't think it's wise to, I don't think it would be wise to consider doing that between something that sounds nipple like the U S and Canada or the U S and Puerto Rico. I mean, I think, I think you want to, you want to find situations where you have a provider and I know people 2.0 has some of those, but you gotta have.
Experience knowledge and people in place learn, stand the laws, understand currencies, understand taxation. You cannot do that and be a recruiter too. If you're doing both of those, then you're you know, a superstar.
Tim Ozier: I think you're spot on Dave. It's really hard to be great at both. For sure. You need, you know, You're you're great.
Excellent recruiter. Who's going out and finding the talent and then you need a company like or others out there, but not as good that provide those international solutions for sure. Because you know that international business it's really hard to wing it. I mean, you might be able to get away with that for a little while and not really be totally honest on the in the know regarding, you know, that taxes and, and in country regulations and stuff like that, but that's going to catch up to you sooner or later.
Especially when you start to work with bigger companies that have a global presence who are very familiar with a lot of the different rules, because they're in those different countries. They want to know that we know what we're doing and we're not going to put either them or our contractors in any type of jeopardy or harm's way regarding how we're paying and billing and taxing, etc.
So I think you're right, Dave, you really need, you need PR experts at that, you know, Stick to what you know, we're experts at sourcing high, get great talent and use a company like us or another company that provide that back office.
Dave Nerz: And Tim, as you pointed out, I mean, even from a standpoint of engaging candidates to fill roles and you have you have to understand the legalities in different marketplaces.
So, you know, if you're going to do that and China or some other places, I mean, you need to know what the rules are and not understanding the rules is not going to be an excuse for when you break one and you have you know, severe penalty because you've done something wrong. So, it's really good to have a partner on the ground, whether it be a employer of record or a trading partner on the standpoint of another recruiter that you're working with who knows the local rules and can help you navigate.
Jeff Nugent: Yeah. And one of the things that actually, and I don't know how you've experienced it, but licensing is incredibly popular. Once you get outside of the U S borders as well, it's you have licensing and some jurisdictions in the us, but outside the borders, espically in Europe. Licensing it when it comes to being a temporary employer of is important and even recruiting licenses.
And so having that local knowledge, just because you can recruit may not mean you can actually legally, so, It's important to also know those, the legislative issues. And it's a constant shifting scenario with, with and we'll continue to see that shift in legislation and taxation, especially as government wake up from. COVID spending situation. They're going to have to look to have to pay for all of it at some point. And a lot of cases that will come through employment tax and taxation. So, you know, the whole idea of the other topic of independent contractors is and the gig economy, the COVID pandemic really accelerated the remote workering model and the online platform space, but the whole increase in the gig economy. It just doesn't mean everybody's independent contractors and I'm not sure how, how much experience each of you have with that, but are you starting to see the shift towards more independent contractors or less? Issues with that.
I know of course in the U S is very popular topic around misclassification of independent contractors. But are you seeing that on an international basis as well? And, and some solutions around that?
Tim Ozier: Yeah. Great, great question, Jeff. One thing you mentioned, I, I definitely wanna go back to is, you know, the, the fact that the, the laws changed so frequently.
So you might think that you're on top of what the regulations are. Even in the US I'll give you a good example. We can go with it with COVID. We place somebody on assignment and they tested positive for COVID right on the first day of assignment. And we were on the hook for paying them during the quarantine period.
So, you know, that's one of those things that, you know, nobody could have foreseen, but you need to be on top of those things all the time. Getting back to the ICS. You mentioned. Yeah. About a third of our contractors are independent contractors, so we're very familiar with it. In fact, I would say almost all of our internationals are what we would call what they would call self-employed.
So, that's even more important with them to make sure that we, that they are properly classified. They're vetted that they really do meet the IC classifications or qualifications depending on the country they're working. So I do think that, that you know, that that model is becoming more and more common.
You know, we talk about the gig economy and in effect, you know, all those gig workers are ICS. And you know, it's, it's amazing the, the the unforeseen circumstances, sometimes I, I guess you probably are familiar with the AB five resolution that passed in California, that Uber spent $20 million on to make sure that they didn't, they weren't gonna happen.
Classify their drivers as employees, they won that battle. Now I'm hearing or reading that there are a bunch of supermarket chains in California that are laying off all of their unionized drivers and hiring ICS to do that instead. So, you know, just an example of the, how quickly things can change on a dime.
Dave Nerz: Tim, I'm just noting, there's a couple of comments that are coming in and maybe. We could talk about some of those that one of them is from Richard. The he, he apparently goes by the staffing shark and he says, he's big on video resumes. I'm just wondering if anybody has any experience with video resumes, which is a great way of kind of accomplishing the cross border challenges.
You know, you're in a different time zone, kind of a thing. Is anybody doing anything, anything like that? I
Tim Ozier: I mean, video resumes are not brand new. They have been around for awhile. We used to have a program called confir view, or it was kind of a closed circuit TV. So you could interview your candidate live via television, but there are pros and cons.
There's some pitfalls. I mean, obviously you do have to worry about any type of, you know, people evaluating somebody on other than their, than their work experience. Right? You can see somebody and you might make a decision based upon that, which is obvious. Right. Uh, but, and then I, I actually, one of my one of our network members is recently introduced a program where he's uh, he'll solicit questions from his client that they will ask.
They want him to ask the candidates, the last set of candidates that live on the camera and then submit that uh, you know, as a, as a sort of a video video resume. And I think one of the things that does help with is making sure that Uh, you know, the person has good good communication skills depending on the job for that they are in.
And it's a little bit off topic, obviously for what we're talking about here.
Jeff Nugent: Sure. And, but there's, there's the time zones, but there's also cultural differences as well. And and it, on the heels of the diversity conversation, we had slightly earlier in the the, uh, the session here just before ours.
The cultural norms and doing business internationally. Are they an obstacle? How has some of your members overcome that language barriers, these types of things? What are you seeing as some best practices to overcome some of those cultural differences? Is it hire staff locally? Is it hire diverse talent on your teams to go after those target markets?
What have you seen with some of your members?
Dave Nerz: I think everybody, you know, this is unique and it kind of depends where the home country is and where the need is. So, you know, we're, the client is paying. And where are the jobs going to be located? So some of them are more complex than others. Some of them it's fairly simple because, you know, English ends up being the primary business language in both countries.
And others it's, it's much more of a struggle and there needs to be more of a handoff that happens between the person who has the client relationship and the person that's going to find the candidate. So I think. Each situation is rather unique and there's like, there is no, this is the way it always works.
It's just, you have to come, go into it with an open mind and find out how are you going to solve the uniqueness of the problem that's put in front of you.
Jeff Nugent: For sure. Tim, have you seen different ways that your members have attacked different markets and going global? Have they hired diverse talent on their teams or as that they've gone after.
Countries that were more in line with their cultural norms, be it Western versus Eastern norms or etc. How has some of that been overcome?
Tim Ozier: Most of the international opportunities that I've worked on have been, are domestic clients looking for, you know, to Dave's point English is the business, the global business language now.
So they're looking for. English speaking resources in other countries that might have a lower cost than they would in the U S. So that really, hasn't been a huge challenge for us from a from a language perspective, because, you know, they have to have that, those communication skills to, to qualify for the job that we're the we're looking for for them.
So that hasn't been a huge issue. I'm trying to read some of the discussions, some of the questions here to see. What about do we, do we recommend acquisition is the easiest way to expand globally. No, I would not say that. I would say that, you know, part with companies that have expertise overseas or is very important, but again, I think.
Like I said earlier, MRIs known primarily for perm placement. Well, you know, our, one of our main jobs is to go out to every one of our clients and say, we do more than just perm we do contract as well, too. So it's sort of the same, what we were talking about earlier. They think we're just domestic or US-based, or only going to find talent for them than us.
But we work with companies that have, you know, locations in 10, 20, 30 different countries around the us. Incumbent on us to make sure that they know that, that we're capable of providing those resources wherever they are. And, you know, that goes back to just relationship building and sales.
Dave Nerz: Yeah. I couldn't think of a more complicated way of expanding globally than position.
I mean, it'd probably be easier to go and start your own company in another location, but I wouldn't do that either. I mean, I, I think if you're gonna start. In less, you have massive resources to apply to this. Then I would say the best way to start is to leverage somebody else's ability in another market as a partner.
As opposed to going in alone, either through acquisition of a business there where you would get a partner obviously, or starting your own business there, those would be complicated ways I would start with with partnering. And then, you know, if you find that it's a fabulous market and you want to buy into it, then good for you.
Acquisition is one way to get there, but there is another question in here that I think Javier had about EOR. And they're wondering, I think Tim, what's, what's your method for handling these, um, these payments and employer situations around the world that you're working on?
Tim Ozier: Yeah, so, we do use an ER or AOR agent of record solution, as I said earlier, most.
I think all, but a handful of our contractors overseas are self-employed. So we would use an agent of record solution there. And we do outsource that to your point, Dave, I mean, you know, don't try to do something that you're not really good at find somebody who is outsource that to them. Like we tell our clients all the time, you know, your core competency is a recruiting.
Ours is well stick to our core competency and we also involve, can help us with this stuff. I'm just thinking of, you know, some of the other. Situations we come across, you know, VAT tax. I mentioned before you know, we had to get a company called BDO in a huge giant global tax company involved or fragment might be a company that many people are familiar with for on the on the immigration side.
So there are a lot of really great companies that don't want to make this just a P2O ad, but they're fantastic because they are physically located in what, 60, 70 different looking at countries around the world. So it does make it a lot easier for us to expand our reach.
Jeff Nugent: Yeah. And you did mention the alternate, is to do the traditional route, right.
And talk to tax advisors, talk to legal advisors, talk to employment lawyers and, and set up your, your entities there. And so there is that. Right as well. And, and there is more and more information out there and the world's getting smaller, but it is, it is a leap of faith a little bit by setting up your own, your own entity in certain jurisdictions.
What we have seen as clients is some. You know, they'll use the employer of record or agent of record service in different jurisdictions until they get to a size that they say, Hmm, it makes sense too, for us to establish our own permanent resident. Or an establishment there and then set up our own shop.
And that often will happen in a Neo war situation to where you do have to think about your permanent establishment rules of that country. And once you get to a certain size, it may make more sense to move into a permanent, setting up shop as well. But depending on the circumstance, there's different options.
You can go before.
Dave Nerz: I see, they're asking us to wrap up soon, Tim or Jeff.
So, you were asking for examples at one point, I don't know how much time we have left, but I mean, I just, I think you have a decision to make you can work wherever you want nowadays, and COVID is a living proof of that. So, decide what market you want to be in. Decide where you have expertise and apply and apply it.
It does not have to be in the place where you wake up every morning. We had a member who decided they didn't want to participate in what was a recessionary period in Australia about maybe eight years ago, something like that. He just decided he would no longer work jobs in Australia. He would work jobs in North America and his business completely shifted to a North American focus over a matter of months.
And he didn't participate in the local recession, but rather participated in what was a more stable economy in another part of the world. So you have a lot of flexibility nowadays. Think about it and apply it.
Jeff Nugent: Pardon me closing remarks.
Tim Ozier: Oh yeah. First of all, thank you, Jeff. Thank you, Dave. It's been great talking to you guys and thank you, Jan again for for hosting this, but you know, I, I would say don't be afraid, you know, don't be afraid to dip your toe in the water because like you said, Jeff. Yeah. The us staffing market is huge and there's probably plenty of business for all of us there, but there's, there's a lot more outside of our borders too.
And I think what Dave said earlier too, you know, if, if we're not providing these solutions to our end clients, we'll find somebody who does. So let's make sure that you're the first one there and making sure that they're fully aware of all of your capabilities. And you know, there are a lot of great companies.
I see. One of the questions here is, you know, how many global players are there in your opinion, myriad who a lot of them, for sure. I mean, some of the biggest staffing companies in the world are headquartered overseas as well. So the US is behind market as far as contract staffing, certainly W2, penetration, but yeah, that, that the opportunities are married and, and partner with a good solid well-versed company.
That's not going to put you or your end client in a bad spot and you can go forward with confidence and look for new business outside of your boarders.
Jeff Nugent: Excellent. Well, thank you, Dave and Tim for a great conversation on, on the opportunities and, and the how to, to expand across your borders into the global markets.
I think once again if 2020 ever taught us anything is you have to be resilient. You have to be creative in continuing your business operations and look for markets. And I thank you for your time and your expertise from your, your experiences over time with your network members. And and I want to also thank Gustav for hosting the World Staffing Summit.
It's been a great day and I want to hand it off, for closing remarks to Jan. And, thank you again.

A publicist for Mariah didn't comment on the separation rumours, simply stating "I am not commenting on Mariah's personal life, but Mariah is focusing on her children and her upcoming tour". | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12937 | {"url": "https://www.capitalxtra.com/news/nicki-cannon-mariah-carey-living-seperate-houses/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.capitalxtra.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:06:20Z", "digest": "sha1:KQJLI2YTGFK7GYJYUPU7MAIJZPPUUANV"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 870, 870.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 870, 2062.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 870, 7.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 870, 80.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 870, 0.96]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 870, 302.4]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 870, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 870, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 870, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 870, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 870, 0.32085561]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 870, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 870, 0.13138686]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 870, 0.13138686]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 870, 0.13138686]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 870, 0.13138686]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 870, 0.13138686]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 870, 0.13138686]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 870, 0.0350365]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 870, 0.02919708]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 870, 0.04671533]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 870, 0.03208556]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 870, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 870, 0.18716578]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 870, 0.62837838]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 870, 4.62837838]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 870, 0.00534759]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 870, 4.35370899]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 870, 148.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 51, 0.0], [51, 138, 0.0], [138, 241, 1.0], [241, 418, 1.0], [418, 597, 1.0], [597, 680, 1.0], [680, 870, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 51, 0.0], [51, 138, 0.0], [138, 241, 0.0], [241, 418, 0.0], [418, 597, 0.0], [597, 680, 0.0], [680, 870, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 51, 9.0], [51, 138, 16.0], [138, 241, 16.0], [241, 418, 29.0], [418, 597, 32.0], [597, 680, 15.0], [680, 870, 31.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 51, 0.0], [51, 138, 0.0], [138, 241, 0.0], [241, 418, 0.0], [418, 597, 0.0], [597, 680, 0.01315789], [680, 870, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 51, 0.0], [51, 138, 0.0], [138, 241, 0.0], [241, 418, 0.0], [418, 597, 0.0], [597, 680, 0.0], [680, 870, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 51, 0.25490196], [51, 138, 0.18390805], [138, 241, 0.03883495], [241, 418, 0.04519774], [418, 597, 0.04469274], [597, 680, 0.03614458], [680, 870, 0.02631579]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 870, 0.56365162]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 870, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 870, 0.66209257]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 870, -5.54488201]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 870, 13.28500525]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 870, -10.64700004]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 870, 7.0]]} |

Reichenau, called Augia Dives in medieval Latin manuscripts and possessing a once celebrated Benedictine monastery, is an island upon the Gnadensee (Untersee) of the Lake of Constance, about one mile in breadth and about three and three-quarter miles long. It belongs to Baden, and has 1600 Catholic inhabitants, principally vintagers and fishermen, distributed among three villages, Oberzell, Mittelzell, and Unterzell (or Niederzell). Since 1838 the island has been connected with the mainland by a dam, one and a quarter miles in length, and with the railroad station of Reichenau (via Constance ). There is a calling station for steamers on the southern shore. The word "Zell" (cell) in the names of the three villages of Reichenau indicates the existence of a monastery on the island, which was the "reiche Aue" (the fertile islet) of medieval culture. Under the protection and at the suggestion of Charles Martel , the Anglo-Saxon (?), Saint Pirmin founded, with the cooperation of Count Berthold and the Alemannian Duke Santfrid I (Nebi), the famous Benedictine monastery of Reichenau, which in earlier times, until the tenth century, bore the name of Sintleosesau (Sintlas Ow). Reichenau had attained its full glory when the Abbey of St. Gall was still comparatively unimportant. In spite of St. Pirmin's banishment from his monastery through the political machinations of the Alemannian prince, Reichenau soon recovered its importance. His immediate successor, Abbot Heddo (727-34), later Bishop of Strasburg, the fate of the founder. The growth of Reichenau was greatly fostered by its position on the highway to Italy, which was frequented by Greek and Italian, and even Irish and Icelandic pilgrims and wayfarers. These became guests at the monastery and enriched it with gifts of precious relics, some of which are still preserved in the church treasury. Among other relics was one of special value, a cross with the blood of Christ, which was said to have been brought by an Arabian named Hassan to Charlemagne, and to have been confided to the custody of Reichenau in 925. The monastery also glorified in the possession of relics of St. Mark, brought to Reichenau from Venice in 830. On his homeward journey from St. Maurice with the relics of St. Maurice and other saints, Bishop Ulrich of Augsburg stayed at Reichenau, and at the petition of Abbot Alewich (934-58), gave a large portion of the relics of Saint Maurice to the monastery. Bishop Egino of Verona resided in Reichenau, and built (799) the parish church of St. Peter at Niederzell, a small Roman basilica with two towers, whither he retired to lead the life of a hermit, dying in 802. His monument still exists. The property of the monastery was composed principally of donations made by Charlemagne, Louis the Pious, Charles the Fat (who is interred at Reichenau in the monastery church of Mittelzell), and many other German kings and emperors, especially of the House of Otto. The consequence of these royal favours was the rapid growth of the monastery in importance, being granted successively immunity from secular authority, jurisdictio fori the status of a principality of the empire, and complete exemption from episcopal jurisdiction.

Reichenau displayed its greatest lustre in the first centuries after its foundation (especially between the ninth and the middle of the thirteenth centuries), during which it discharged its great work of civilization. The men most prominent for scholarship and ability during this period laboured at Reichenau -- e.g. Walafrid Strabo (839-849); Hatto (891-913), from 891 Archbishop of Mainz ; Berno (1008-48), appointed by Henry II successor of the uncultured Abbot Immo, who had been thrust upon the monastery by the same emperor; St. Meinrad (Meynrad), Count of Zollern (d. 861), the hermit and founder of Maria-Einsiedeln, who came from the monastery of Reichenau; moreover, Hermann Contractus (d. 1054), the acute scholar and historiographer, author of the Salve Regina . The last was a relative of St. Ulrich. These and other scholars laboured at Reichenau and formed the famous Reichenau library and school of painters (Codex Egberti). The Reichenau school of painting is seen at its best even today in the single extant work of the tenth century -- the eight pictures on the upper part of the walls of the little Roman basilican parish church (St. Georgskirche) at Oberzell - and in the paintings on the walls of the church of St. Peter at Niederzell, which belong to the first half of the eleventh century, and were discovered by Künstle and Begerle in 1901. As a consequence of its prosperity, laxity and decay came upon the monastery, and caused its incorporation with the Diocese of Constance in 1541. The bishops of Constance thus became commendatory abbots, and the personnel of the monastery was reduced to twelve monks (inclusive of the prior ) and a small number of novices. In 1757 the few remaining monks were forcibly removed to other monasteries, and the novitiate abolished. Members of neighbouring monasteries performed the religious services at Reichenau until the monastery was secularized in 1802.

Saint September 2 : Martyrs of the French Revolution - The Carmelite Massacre of 1792 in France
September 2: The Carmelite Massacre of 1792: September Martyrs
Posted by Jacob
September 2 (and September 3), is the feast days of the September Martyrs of the French Revolution, among them John Francis Burté, Appolinaris of Posat, Severin Girault, John Baptist Triquerie, Blessed Alexander Lenfant, Blessed John du Lau (Bishop of Arles), and hundreds of others. By the conclusion of the French Revolution, over 1500 priests and religious were martyred for their refusal to renounce the faith. Today, we remember their courage, steadfastness, and commitment to the true Word of God.
The martyrdom of the “September Martyrs” spans several years, but are celebrated on the same two days each September. While their glorious deaths did not occur simultaneously, each of the martyred religious died for the same reason—defending the faith. At that time, the Civil Constitution of the Clergy (1791) required all priests and religious to take an oath to the French government, placing them under the control of the government, and amounting to a denial of the faith. Each of these brave men and women refused and was subsequently executed.
From the Acts of Martyrdom: “The upheaval which occurred in France toward the close of the 18th century wrought havoc in all things sacred and profane and vented its fury against the Church and her ministers. Unscrupulous men came to power who concealed their hatred for the Church under the deceptive guise of philosophy.... It seemed that the times of the early persecutions had returned. The Church, spotless bride of Christ, became resplendent with bright new crowns of martyrdom.”
What is known in history as the Carmelite Massacre of 1792, added nearly 200 victims to this noble company of martyrs. After refusing to take the oath in support of the civil constitution, these priests and religious brothers and sisters were imprisoned in a Carmelite convent and then massacred in the space of two days by bloodthirsty revolutionary mobs. Among these priests were a Conventual, a Capuchin, and a member of the Third Order Regular.
John Francis Burte was born in the town of Rambervillers in Lorraine. At the age of 16 he joined the Franciscans at Nancy and there he also pronounced his solemn vows. In due time he was ordained a priest and for some time taught theology to the younger members of the order. Father John Francis was placed in charge of the large convent in Paris and encouraged his brethren to practice strict observance of the rule. His zeal for souls was outstanding, and he zealously guarded the rights of the Church in this troubled period of history. When the French Revolution broke out, he was reported for permitting his priests to exercise their functions after they refused to take the infamous oath required by the government, and which was a virtual denial of their Faith. He was arrested and held captive with other priests in the convent of the Carmelites.
Apollinaris of Posat, of Swiss descent was educated by the Jesuits. In 1762 he joined the Capuchins became a prominent preacher, a much-sought confessor, and an eminent instructor of the young clerics of the order. He impressed on their minds the truth that piety and learning are the two eyes of a priest, and humility was a dominating virtue in his life. On route to the far East as a missionary, he was imprisoned along with the Carmelites for refusal to take the oath.
Severin Girualt, a priest of the Third Order Regular born at Rouen in Normandy, and early in life joined the Third Order Regular of Saint. Francis. Because of his eminent mental gifts he was chosen a superior of his order. In the exercise of his priestly duties he displayed marked zeal for souls, and as chaplain of the convent of Saint Elizabeth in Paris he was a prudent director in the ways of religious perfection. Seized and detained with the others in the Carmelite convent, he became the first victim of the massacre while praying the Daily Office in the convent garden.
Blessed John du Lau was the archbishop of Arles, France. Arrested with the others, and confined to the Carmelite convent, he was praying when 150 armed men stormed the sanctuary. The “prisoners” were ordered into the garden. When they heard that the Blessed John was praying in the chapel, they called for him. When summoned, he came out and he said, “I am he whom you seek.” Thereupon, they cracked his skull, stabbed him and trampled him underfoot.
Having set an example of the blessed Archbishop, the leader set up a “tribunal” before which the imprisoned were herded and ordered to take the oath. All refused, and one by one, as they passed down the stairway, they were murdered.
through the prayers of our Martyrs
who bore faithful witness to the end of their lives,
inspire us to give of ourselves in joyful sacrifice.
Empower us with your Spirit
that we may grow in wisdom and integrity of character
and develop a true sense of values
through following Christ our Lord. Amen.

Biblical Interpretation and the Epistle to the Ephesians
Where and how we start in our interpretation of Scripture determines where we will end up. When seeking to understand the relevance of the Bible’s teaching for our lives, interpretive starting points are particularly significant. The method by which we read and derive meaning from Scripture is the fundamental determinant of the nature of the meaning we will derive.
Nevertheless, we can make several affirmations about the Bible and its meaning. First, we can affirm that Scripture holds relevance and truth for our lives and our Christian faith, because we believe that Scripture is the word of God. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, God speaks through Scripture in ways that transcend our best academic and scientific analysis of the Bible. Secondly, we can affirm that we possess clear and helpful methods and resources for understanding and applying Scripture to our lives. As we gain deeper insight into the historical, literary, and social settings of the Bible, we encounter fresh and deeper understandings of its meaning for our lives.
These two affirmations—that the Bible is the word of God and that we have tools to interpret Scripture—enable us to assert that Scripture contains accessible and applicable truth.
In light of Ephesians 5:21–33 and its teachings regarding the Christian community, women, and marriage, let us examine the methods and resources for interpretation. This passage says:
Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church—for we are members of his body. “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.” This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church. However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband. (NIV 1984)
Cultural translation
Most Christians are familiar with the task of cultural translation while interpreting Scripture. We recognize that the Bible was written in a different context than our own and seek to understand its relevance for our lives. When interpreting and appropriating the book of Ephesians, therefore, we naturally and necessarily engage in cultural translation. For example, the admonitions concerning slaves in Ephesians 6 are properly and almost universally acknowledged to be nontransferable to our present context in the Western world. We readily reject the institution of slavery as evil, and do not hesitate to avoid the direct application of the command “Slaves, obey your earthly masters.” As we do, we are interpreting the commands of Scripture in light of our present social, political, and theological contexts.
The location from which we begin our interpretation of Ephesians 6—for example, in the case of twenty-first-century North Americans living after the civil rights movement, in a democratic country and globalized world—influences how we apply this passage to our lives. Although a seemingly elementary affirmation, the previous statement holds great significance for our interpretation of Ephesians’s teaching on women.
Interestingly, the modes of interpretation and cultural translation used by Christians are often inconsistent when approaching Ephesians’s commands regarding slaves and women. While few Christians interpret Ephesians as a justification for slavery, many hold to a supposedly “direct” application of its commands concerning women in chapter 5. Paul’s exhortation “Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord” is interpreted and applied literally as supporting male dominance in the church and home. This common inconsistency between readings of Ephesians’s commands regarding slaves and women indicates that many Christians possess preconceived and extraneous assumptions about the roles of women, which they bring to their interpretation of the text.
Those who hold that Ephesians 5:21–33 supports the authority of husbands over their wives start their interpretation of this passage with preconceived beliefs in gender inequality and patriarchy. When such preconceived beliefs and interpretations are brought to the passage, the cultural context of the first century is abandoned and the thrust of the message is missed. Fair interpretation necessitates that, in the same spirit by which we evaluate Ephesians’s teaching regarding slaves, we acknowledge how the cultural and social norms regarding women in the first century underlie the author’s instructions regarding women and marriage. Starting with a solid understanding of the social and historical context is essential to arriving at a balanced and thoughtful interpretation of the Bible.
The historical, social context of Ephesians
During the first century, when Paul wrote the letter to the Ephesians, the social and cultural context was significantly different. Wives were commonly twelve to fifteen years younger and far less educated than their husbands.1 Furthermore, women in Greek culture during the first century were considered largely property of their fathers and husbands.2 The predominant cultural assumption regarding women at this time was patriarchy and inequality.
Gordon Fee, in his 2002 article, offers a helpful description of the Greco-Roman household of Paul’s day.3 According to Fee, the household was a place of production, run by a man, wherein slaves, women, and children existed in hierarchal relationships that benefitted the male-dominated household business. Marriage was not based on love, but existed for the purposes of bearing children and maintaining the household structure. Men and women were not considered equals and did not exist in loving marriage relationships as we understand them. Thus, Paul’s words to the Ephesians, especially those concerning household relationships, address a particular context and culture quite foreign to our own—so much so that great care must be taken when seeking to apply his instructions to our present circumstances.
In Ephesians 5, Paul takes the normative social structures of his day for granted. He addresses the relationship between husbands and wives in a descriptive manner that would have made sense to his original readers. Thus, Ephesians does not provide prescriptive guidelines for marriage. As Philip Payne has stated, “While Paul’s wording was framed in order to speak to people in his own social structure, one must not assume that he intended to make those social structures normative for all societies.”4
The difference between the context in which the text was written and our present context necessitates that we thoughtfully and creatively reimagine how we might follow the principles and commands of this passage. Thus, the interpretive task for us as Christians in the twenty-first century is to understand and determine what Paul was telling the Christians in first-century Ephesus, why his message was significant at that time, and how we might appropriate the meaning of his commands in our own lives. We ought, as I. Howard Marshall describes, to engage in “continuing evaluation of society in light of the gospel.”5
Metaphorical language in Ephesians 5:21–33
In verse 23 of Ephesians 5, Paul utilizes a metaphor and a simile when he states, “For the husband is head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.” The relationship between Christ and the church is presented as analogous to the relationship of husbands to their wives. Paul makes further use of simile when, in verse 25, he charges husbands to “love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her,” and in verse 28 states, “[H]usbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies.” The relationship between Christ and the church and the relationship between husbands and wives are similar insofar as they relate analogically, but they are not identical.
Ephesians 5:21–33, as is common throughout Scripture and literature, utilizes the literary mechanism of analogy as a tool for conveying meaning. A simile is a figure of speech using like or as (a metaphor omits these) in which a comparison is made between two unlike things which, in fact, have something in common. The comparison relates two unfamiliar things in a manner that presents them as substitutes for one another.
There is not a one-to-one, unequivocal relationship between things joined in metaphors and similes, because such figures of speech highlight the points of connection or similarity between two unlike things. When two things are related through metaphors and similes, they necessarily possess both points of similarity and points of difference. A simile ceases to function as a simile if the two things being related are viewed either as completely identical or utterly different. This is particularly important to remember when seeking to interpret and apply scriptural similes.
In order to be understood, similes and metaphors require imagination. In fact, I offer that humans’ ability to create and understand metaphor is our highest form of cognitive capacity—an ability that sets us apart from all other species. Further confirmation of this idea is evidenced in an analogy’s ability to advance empathy, an intellectual identification with the feelings, thoughts, and actions of another. Empathy flows from an understanding of similarity and unity. When we acknowledge the full humanity of others, we participate in a comparative exercise of empathically recognizing the similarity between our lives and those of others.
I suggest, therefore, that understanding comparative figures of speech is centrally important to the Christian gospel and mission. We cannot love our neighbors unless we acknowledge our common origin as children of God. Furthermore, the message of Christ is dependent upon a plethora of analogical constructions, and the gospel can only be advanced through the utilization and comprehension of these comparisons. Examining biblical metaphors and similes and applying their significance to our own lives demands that we creatively engage with their historical and literary foundations and imagine how they might be translated into our own context.
Metaphors and similes are not timeless, but, rather, reflect the unique context of their creator. They have cultural and historical limits, and the original, authorially intended points of similarity and points of difference are frozen in a particular social and historical thought world—one that must be penetrated and understood if the full sense is to be comprehended.
At the same time, metaphors and similes are rich and living. They can, and do, take on new and additional meanings over time. As their meanings change and develop, they demand continual engagement and exploration in order to be understood. Often, over time, the meaning conveyed through a figure of speech might be more accurately expressed through a different referent. The task of Christian theology and the church is, thus, to engage the metaphors and similes of Christianity and its Scriptures in order to see new and pertinent meaning in them.
Reading Ephesians in light of the gospel
The book of Ephesians and its teaching on wives and husbands must likewise be read with attention to the gospel message and the circumstances surrounding its authorship. In “Mutual Love and Submission in Marriage,” I. Howard Marshall states, “Paul’s teaching remains authoritative for today, but is authoritative, just as he himself would insist, as an expression of the gospel.”6 The teachings of Jesus and the redemptive history of God’s work must serve as the lens through which we interpret Scripture, particularly those sections, like Ephesians, that address early church communities in specific contexts.
In particular, we must examine the gospel’s teachings on relationships, and study how Jesus’ ministry addressed social relationships at the time in which the New Testament was written. The Christian faith offers us a fundamental understanding of what it means to be human—what it means to be created in the image of God and exist in relationship with God and other humans. Thus, at stake in every discussion about gender identities and roles within the church and home is theological anthropology. More than seeking to locate and name the fundamental differences between men and women, our task in interpreting Scripture should be to understand what it means to be humans, male and female, together, created in the image of God.
An accurate reading and explication of Ephesians 5:18—6:9 can occur only with attention to the entirety of Paul’s message in this letter. This section is located within a larger passage that addresses Christian relationships and living. Paul’s concern here is that followers of Christ live lives of holiness—lives characterized by righteousness and newness of life. Becoming a Christian means that one’s understanding of oneself, and, consequently, one’s actions, are changed. Christians are “to be made new” (4:23) and to “put off” (4:22) the corruption and sin of their former, unbelieving lives. Truthfulness, peace, respect, reconciliation, encouragement, compassion, love, and forgiveness are to characterize all followers of Christ, because they reflect Christ himself.
Paul’s words concerning wives and husbands in Ephesians occur within this understanding that the lives of Christians are to reflect unique moral standards characterized by holiness. Here, Paul addresses three relationships: wives and husbands, slaves and masters, and children and fathers. Gordon Fee notes that these three relationships were primary to the Greco-Roman household of the first century and that addressing these relationships would have been common practice.7
Many scholars, including Gordon Fee and I. Howard Marshall, suggest that the interpretive key to Paul’s writing on Christian holiness in these three relationships is found in the command in 5:18, to “be filled with the Holy Spirit.”8 Therefore, the holiness and newness of life to which Paul is calling the church can only be realized through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. This passage continues by describing what Spirit-filled lives look like. The Holy Spirit’s power enables Christians to “[b]e completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love” (4:2), acknowledge that “[w]e are all members of one body” (4:25), “[b]e kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other” (4:32), “[l]ive a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us” (5:1). Finally, and most significantly for our discussion, the Holy Spirit enables Christians to “[s]ubmit to one another out of reverence for Christ” (5:21). Submission is, therefore, presented here as a characteristic of our new humanity in Christ, not merely a feminine ideal.
This passage is teaching all Christians to submit to one another in love and humility—an idea which, at that time, would have transformed the normative understanding of social relationships. The hierarchal social structures of the period in which this letter was written would have been incompatible with the social ethic Paul was presenting to the church in Ephesians. Rather than prescribing patriarchal relationships within marriage, Paul was challenging the patriarchy of his day by calling the whole church—men, women, slaves, and free—to be filled with the life-transforming power of the Holy Spirit and so to submit to one another.
Paul’s commands about marriage in this passage are given for the purpose of explaining Christians’ “new life in Christ.” The submission to which Paul was calling the church was a submission of equals. His use of the reciprocal pronoun allelois in Greek to form the construction “Submit to one another” in 5:21 indicates action that is free and collective. Thus, Paul’s use of this construction is incompatible with a patriarchal interpretation of his later commands concerning marriage. Read in view of this authorial intention, as well as the historical circumstances of his day, Paul’s teaching on women and marriage in Ephesians cannot be interpreted so as to justify the subordination of women.
The command for wives to submit to their husbands is directly dependent upon the command for everyone within the Christian community to submit to each other. “Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands” cannot properly be interpreted and applied apart from the preceding and prerequisite command, “Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.”
The “head” metaphor in Ephesians 5:21–33
Ephesians 5:21–33 offers, by way of analogy and metaphor, examples of how the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, through the salvation of Jesus Christ, might transform relationships within the Christian community. One of the most well-known and misunderstood metaphors (followed by a simile) for marriage in the New Testament is found in this passage when Paul says, “For the husband is head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church.” This metaphor invites readers to imagine and interpret the relationship between head and body in order to understand more fully how new life in the Holy Spirit transforms marriage. Like all metaphors, head, as Paul uses it, is rich and living. Its proper interpretation demands care and understanding.
Paul’s assertion that husbands are the heads of their wives is commonly interpreted by some Christians in a hierarchal manner, meaning ruler or authority. The original Greek text of Ephesians, however, does not allow for such an ordered interpretation. In this passage, the limits of the English language blur important distinctions among several meanings of the term translated head in English. Rather than indicating hierarchy and therefore wives’ submission to their husbands, the Greek word kephalē in this context is properly understood to convey the ideas of dependence and unity and can be translated source.9 It was commonly used in Paul’s day as a military term to describe one who went into battle before the rest of the troops.10 Thus, it indicated chronology rather than leadership or position of authority. Kephalē indicates those who willingly sacrifice and lay down their lives. Such understanding is consistent with Paul’s metaphorical assertion that Christ is the kephalē of the church.
Another Greek word, archē, was used in Paul’s time to convey the hierarchal ideas of leader or ruler, as well as point of origin and beginning.11 Had Paul used this word, Ephesians’s teaching on marriage would be more justifiably hierarchal. However, as constructed, the metaphor of head does not indicate subordination. It is significant that Paul chose the word kephalē to describe the relationship between husband and wife in the Christian community because the wider Greek culture of Paul’s time would have expected the use of the word archē in a description of the marriage relationship.
In saying that the husband is the head or kephalē of the wife, Paul is speaking to the chronology of creation history and his own historical situation rather than hierarchy within the marriage relationship. The instruction for husbands to be the head of their wives is an application of Genesis 2:24, which says that husband and wife are to form one flesh. Man and woman were created for a unified life with each other. Therefore, Paul’s metaphor in Ephesians implies mutual dependence rather than hierarchy in marriage. In this metaphor, the head and the body, which make up the one flesh of marriage, cannot survive apart from or over and against one another. In keeping with the thematic thrust of this passage, Paul states that, through the power of the Holy Spirit, husbands are to be the head of their wives by existing as one part of a unified and mutually dependent flesh.
Christ as the head of the church
In order to understand more fully Paul’s head metaphor in Ephesians, we must examine the relationship of Christ and the church to which the marriage relationship is likened. As already noted, analogical language, by its nature, highlights the similarity between two unlike things. Christ and the church are categorically different than man and woman. As the church’s foundation and Savior, Jesus in his relationship to the church can never be identically mirrored in the marriage relationship. The simile of the relationships of Christ and the church and husbands and wives would cease to be analogous if there were not significant differences between them.
However, in the church today, the distinction and differences between the Christ/church, husband/wife simile are often lost or denied. When this occurs, the idea of mutuality within marriage is lost, and husbands are often made out to be the “saviors” or “spiritual leaders” of their wives. Such an understanding denies women a fully free relationship with God.
That being noted, the points of similarity between these two relationships will be our focus. The point of commonality is found in the Greek word kephalē and its meaning of “source.” Paul is saying that, just as Christ is the source of the church, so too the husband became the source of his wife’s existence when God used Adam’s rib to create Eve in Genesis.
With this simile, Paul was also seeking to highlight the unity and mutuality with which husbands and wives are to live. Christ and the church exist in a reciprocal and unified relationship. The church is dependent upon Christ for its wellbeing and life, and the church does Christ’s work on earth. Likewise, husbands and wives are to be unified and reciprocally loving toward one another. Therefore, the analogy between the relationships of Christ and the church and husbands and wives is found in the idea of source and unity, rather than the commonly interpreted idea of hierarchy.
Love your wife as Christ loved the church
Paul’s admonition for wives to submit to their husbands is paralleled in this passage in another analogical construction when Paul says in 5:25, “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.” This command further expounds Paul’s understanding of Christian marriage and two lives filled with the Holy Spirit’s power. The injunctions in this passage that “husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies,” and “each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself,” powerfully emphasize the love and service husbands are to extend in relationship with their wives.
For Paul, the “headship” husbands are to have over their wives is exercised by loving their wives (5:25, 28, 33), cleansing them through the word (5:26–27), nourishing them (5:25, 28, 33), and cherishing them (5:29). I. Howard Marshall notes, “Not only is this instruction to husbands to love their wives unusual and unconventional in the world of the New Testament, but the sheer intensity of the love demanded is extraordinary.”12 This idea of “headship” would have been strange in the Greco-Roman household, but is consistent with Paul’s teaching on new life through the power of the Holy Spirit.
This interpretation of Ephesians is also congruent with Jesus’ life and teaching. The gospel offers a transformative ethic of authority, power, and relationships: “Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:43–44). Likewise, the Beatitudes of Matthew 5 present meekness, mercy, and peacemaking as values of the kingdom of God.
In Ephesians, Paul takes up and illuminates via metaphor and simile how these teachings of Christ are exemplified within marriage. Far from condoning hierarchy within marriage, he calls Christians to a new level of mutuality, love, and service in all of their relationships and, particularly, in their marriage relationships. His teaching is consistent with the gospel of Jesus Christ and reflects a new understanding of the Spirit’s transformative and powerful presence in the lives of Christians.

CBP takes all allegations of sexual abuse and/or assault of individuals in CBP custody seriously, to include sexual abuse and/or assault allegations as defined in the DHS Standards to Prevent, Detect, and Respond to Sexual Abuse and Assault in Confinement Facilities, 6 C.F.R. Part 115, (the "DHS Standards"). Under a uniform system, all allegations of sexual abuse and/or assault in a CBP holding facility are documented and referred to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Office of Inspector General (OIG), for independent review and assessment. Some allegations are retained by the DHS OIG for investigation while others are referred back to CBP's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR), Investigative Operations Division (IOD), for investigation.
CBP OPR IOD conducts the sexual abuse and/or assault investigation in coordination with applicable federal, state or local law enforcement authorities. During the course of all sexual abuse and/or assault investigations, evidence is collected and preserved in accordance with DHS and CBP policies. CBP OPR IOD thoroughly documents and memorializes the investigation in the CBP OPR case management system. Sexual abuse and/or assault investigations are conducted by specially trained, qualified investigators in accordance with OPR IOD policies and procedures to include interviews of alleged victims, suspected perpetrators, witnesses and review of any available video surveillance.
Sexual abuse and/or assault case records are maintained in an electronic system of records in accordance with the DHS Standards and applicable policies, and in accordance with established schedules.

Selena Gomez, an American singer, songwriter, actor, and television producer was born on July 22, 1992. After participating in the children’s television series Barney & Friends (2002-2004), she gained broader fame for her role in the Emmy-winning Disney Channel television series Wizards of Waverly Place (2007-2012).

Selena Gomez Responds To Her Critics About Her Body
Selena Gomez’s Diet And Workout Plans
Selena Gomez’s weight increase is a popular topic of discussion on the internet. Selena Gomez, unlike some, strives to demonstrate that everyone should accept themselves as they are.
In her TikTok video, the ‘Fetish’ singer mouthed the words to a humorous sound clip to make a serious statement. In the video, she lounges in a purple one-piece swimsuit on a boat.
In response to a voice in the background of the footage saying, “Suck it in,” Selena Gomez responds, “I’m not sucking s**t in.” The backdrop question “Why?” “Real stomachs are coming back, alright?” she mutters.

Recently, Selena Gomez has utilized TikTok to be candid regarding body image. She stated on the platform, “I will be attempting to maintain a healthy weight, but I went to Jack in the Box and had four tacos, three egg rolls, onion rings, and a spicy chicken sandwich.”
She continued, “However, I don’t care about my weight because people complain. You are too little. You are too large. “That doesn’t work” ‘Meh meh meh meh.'” She concluded the video by declaring, “F***, I’m perfect the way I am.”

Her Lupus primarily causes Gomez’s weight gain. She stated that. The former Disney actress has been physically and emotionally forthright about her condition. In 2014, the singer was diagnosed with Lupus, an autoimmune condition characterized by the immune system’s attack on the body’s connective tissues. Important organs such as the heart, kidneys, and joints might be harmed or destroyed in more severe forms of Lupus.
According to the Mayo Clinic, fifty percent of lupus patients experience kidney inflammation, which can progress to lupus nephritis. Symptoms of this nephritis might include muscular soreness, joint swelling or pain, red rashes, and in certain instances, renal failure.

The manifestations of Lupus and the existence of treatment are poorly understood. Currently, chemotherapy and pharmaceuticals are used to treat Lupus. Her absence from the public eye was her decision to undergo chemotherapy for Lupus. People suspected at the time that Selena Gomez was pregnant or in rehab. In actuality, she was being treated for Lupus.
Her Lupus diagnosis significantly influenced Selena Gomez’s weight growth throughout the years. In addition to Lupus, she also struggled with high blood pressure and renal problems, which explains her frequent weight fluctuations. Disease Control and Prevention state that weight gain is prevalent as Lupus can impair the body’s organs (CDC). Even in the absence of a medical problem, weight changes are commonplace. In addition, Gomez’s weight swings might be partly attributed to the long-term drugs she takes.
During Selena Gomez’s interview with Ryan Seacrest, she spoke out about the many individuals who had terrible words to say about her because of her weight gain, and she did not hold back. The event in question took place in April while Selena Gomez was on vacation in Mexico, and it was around this time that she was seen wearing a bikini.
In response to the ensuing rumors that she had gained weight, she published a picture of herself on Instagram with the comment, “I love being happy with me guys #theresmoretolove.” During her interview, Selena Gomez talked about the event, saying, “The reason I acted in that manner was that I didn’t want them to succeed in their endeavor.
Because after that, the next day, it wasn’t about how much weight I had gained. It was about how I accepted it. It is more or less how I go about things.” You can hear all she had to say about the experience by watching the video that is located above.

Gomez worked on her diet and lifestyle to become better. Amy Rosoff Davis assisted Selena Gomez in making healthy eating choices and altering her lifestyle.
For breakfast, Granola and Greek yogurt with full fat. As for lunch, dress the turkey, beans, and avocado in olive oil, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard. And for supper, either a Teriyaki bowl with Asian chicken or salmon marinated in teriyaki sauce, cucumber, avocado, rice, teriyaki sauce, or Sushi. Freshly squeezed juice of cucumber, kale, ginger, and carrot served as a snack.
Dietary Suggestion: Consume more whole foods and organic foods. For weight loss, try intermittent fasting or the fast metabolism diet.
The following is what Amy Rosoff had to say regarding Selena Gomez’s exercise regimen. “If you stick to the same routine, you will likely become bored and stop going to the gym. Exercise should be a part of your lifestyle, not a chore or responsibility. Make your exercises enjoyable by doing something new and different every day. Selena Gomez and I engage in various activities, including Pilates, hiking, dance aerobics, circuit training, yoga, and spinning. But regardless of the exercise, we always take time to stretch. It maintains your muscles long and slender, increases your performance, aids your joints, and enables your muscles to function to their full potential. Additionally, it feels quite pleasant.”
Her social media accounts are: Instagram, Facebook, Twitter.

Displacive_phase_transformations
Displacive phase transformations
Diffusionless transformations are a class of phase changes that do not occur by the long-range diffusion of atoms but rather by some form of cooperative, homogeneous movement of many atoms that results in a change in crystal structure. These movements are small, usually less than the interatomic distances, and the atoms maintain their relative relationships. The ordered movement of large numbers of atoms lead some to refer to these as military transformations in contrast to civilian diffusion-based phase changes [ref].

The most commonly encountered transformation of this type is the martensitic transformation which, while being the best known, is actually only one subset of non-diffusional transformations. The marentitic transformation in steel represents the most economically important example of this category of phase transformations but an increasing number of alternatives, such as shape-memory alloys, are leaving the bounds of pure scientific interest and having significant impact on day-to-day life [examples and ref].
Classification and definitions
When a structural change occurs by the coordinated movement of atoms (or groups of atoms) relative to their neighours then the change is termed displacive. This covers a broad range of transformations and so further classifications have been developed [Cohen 1979].
The first distinction can be drawn between transformations dominated by lattice-distortive strains and those where shuffles are of greater importance.
Homogeneous lattice-distortive strains, also known as Bain strains, are strains that transform one Bravais lattice into a different one. This can be represented by a strain matrix S which transforms one vector, y, into a new vector, x:
y = Sx
This is homogeneous as straight lines are transformed to new straight lines. Examples of such transformations include a cubic lattice increasing in size on all three axes (dilation) or shearing into a monoclinic structure.
Shuffles, as the name suggests, involve the small movement of atoms within the unit cell. As a result pure shuffles do not normally result in a shape change of the unit cell - only its symmetry and structure.
Phase transformations normally result in the creation of an interface between the transformed and parent material. The energy required to generate this new interface will depend on its nature - essentially how well the two structures fit together. An additional energy term occurs if the transformation includes a shape change since, if new phase is constrained by surrounding material, this may give rise to elastic or plastic deformation and hence a strain energy term. The ratio of these interfacial and strain energy terms has a notable effect on the kinetics of the transformation and the morphology of the new phase. Thus, shuffle transformations, where distortions are small, are dominated by interfacial energies and can be usefully separated from lattice-distortive transformations where the strain energy tends to have a greater effect.
A subclassification of lattice-distortive dispalcements can be made by considering the dilational and shear components of the distortion. In transformations dominated by the shear component it is possible to find a line in the new phase that is undistorted from the parent phase while all lines are distorted when the dilation is predominant. Shear dominated transformations can be further classified according to the magnitude of the strain energies involved compared to the innate vibrations of the atoms in the lattice and hence whether the strain energies have a notable influence on the kinetics of the transformation and the morpholgy of the resulting phase. If the strain energy is a significant factor then the transformations are dubbed martensitic and if it is not the transformation is referred to as quasi-martensitic.

UCLA study shows that use of educational videos can boost STEM test scores
Dr Roshini Ramachandran led the team whose study shows that using educational videos to supplement face-to-face lectures significantly boosts student learning.
The team’s study titled “Investigating the Effectiveness of Using Application-Based Science Education Videos in a General Chemistry Lecture Course” was published in the February 22, 2019 issue of Journal of Chemical Education.
Ramachandran joined the UCLA Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry in 2017 as a Boyer Teacher-Scholar where she taught undergraduate courses and conducted research in Professor Alex Spokoyny’s group. In March 2019, she joined the UCLA Center for The Advancement of Teaching (CAT) as Academic Administrator for Curricular Review and Revision. The CAT fosters and champions effective teaching, grounded in sound pedagogy and enhanced by innovation, to promote successful learning for UCLA’s diverse student population,
In her new position, Ramachandran is involved in the assessment and curricular revision of the GE Foundations of Scientific Inquiry (FSI) courses and also conducts Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education research to enhance teaching and student learning at UCLA.
“I enjoy creating innovative active-learning strategies and implementing teaching-as-research projects across the curriculum to improve student learning experiences in STEM. I am excited about my new role and being able to contribute to shaping curricula across disciplines,” she said. “I am grateful to the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry for providing me with many opportunities to grow, and I am truly fortunate to have an incredible and supportive mentor in Alex Spokoyny through the last two years!”
Ramachandran’s co-authors on the paper were CAT members Dr. Erin M. Sparck and Dr. Marc Levis-Fitzgerald. For their study, the researchers analyzed 501 UCLA undergraduate life science/non-chemistry majors predominantly studying under the same teacher in a general chemistry course. After attending lectures and taking a quiz on each topic, students watched a corresponding educational video on the topic. The average student performed significantly better on each post-video quiz, according to the study. Scores rose whether students took the test just after watching the video, or two days later, underscoring that the videos reinforced conceptual learning, according to the study. Gains occurred in both low-scoring and high-scoring topics; for example, despite high pre-video scores for the topic of Entropy, post-video scores still showed significant improvement from 86.4% to 96.1% in a winter semester class. More interestingly, though most students stated that they found the videos useful, even students who felt neutral or negatively about the videos’ impact showed meaningful post-video test gains.
“These videos are an effective learning tool as they not only have conceptual information but also expose students to laboratory experiments, data analysis and real-life applications related to the topic,” Ramachandran said. The educational videos used in the study were provided by the Journal of Visualized Experiments Science Education Collection.
About Dr. Roshini Ramachandran
Ramachandran received her bachelor’s degree in chemistry from Madras University, Chennai and her master’s degree in applied chemistry from Anna University, Chennai. She received a Ph.D in inorganic chemistry under Professor Tina Salguero from The University of Georgia, Athens (UGA) with a research focus on the synthesis of inorganic nanomaterials for refractory applications. At UGA, Ramachandran implemented several teaching-as-research projects to improve classroom engagement and inquiry-based learning. She was instrumental in establishing UGA’s ‘STEM Peer Learning Assistant Program’ and developed a pedagogy of teaching course for undergraduate Peer Learning Assistants.

Del Kathryn Barton, And the tears were not yet dry in his beautiful eyes, 2012.
“Man is condemned to be free; because once thrown into the world, he is responsible for everything he does.
It is up to you to give [life] a meaning.”
2016 for me has been nothing short of massive. The year began with a deep love affair, only to be followed by heartbreak soon after. For respite I momentarily withdrew from the world, and in my ocean of tears I discovered a letter that had been hiding away in a treasure chest in the darkness of the deep sea. This is what it said...
Dearest Cherise,
+ The day you realise that you are the only person who is solely responsible for your own life, is the day you set yourself free. Period. Now is the time to become an adult. It's time that you see that all of your relationships with others directly reflect the relationship you have with yourself.
+ You need to understand that no one is going to come and rescue you. There is no knight in shining armour. There is no fairytale romance. Yes, you can have your poems and flowers and all the other sentimental things. But you are not a helpless princess who needs to be whisked away in order to live the life of a Queen you've always dreamed of. Only YOU can create that.
+ You can't keep blaming your issues on your parents or your childhood trauma. YES, we all come out wounded, and yes, you've experienced some big stuff that makes life pretty tough sometimes. But at the end of the day, you're all grown up now and you can choose whether you continue to allow these to hold you back. I'm not saying it's easy, but everyday, you have a choice.
+ Similarly, it's really unhelpful to see your partner, your location, your job, your financial troubles etc, as the source of your unhappiness. You are choosing to be with that person, to live in that place, to work in that job, to make certain financial priorities etc. Again, most decisions are not black and white; life is complex, but you have so much more power than you realise.
+ You can't keep hiding yourself away by playing a side kick role- whether that's in your personal or business relationships- because you're afraid that a) the world might see you, or b) you will make a mistake. (Well, you can, but let's face it, it's doing your head in). Now is the time that you need to actually put this advice into practice: "Pushing through fear is less frightening than living with the bigger underlying fear that comes from a feeling of helplessness," (as Susan Jeffers says in her 5 truths about fear.)
+ And no, all of this doesn't mean that you can't ask your friends and family for help along the way. It's actually imperative to have a healthy support network in your life, and you don't have to go it alone. But what you do need to do is to love yourself so fiercely that no matter what happens or who walks in and out of your life, you always have your own back.
You (in an alternate time/universe)
P.S. I know this may sound "me, me, me", but ironically, once you start doing this you will begin to give to the world in a completely different way because you are no longer drifting around in the desert lands of not-enough-ness.
Some of this I had heard before. Fragments of these sentences occasionally drifted by on the wind, and sometimes I managed to catch bits and pieces to store in my bag for a rainy day. But this time I took these words and I tattooed them onto my inner skin so I wouldn't forget. I knew I needed to embody them in my life, and honestly, this letter was the self-loving kick-up-the-ass I really needed.

"Don't explain your philosophy. Embody it."
Epictetus
Sure enough, 2016 became a year of significant firsts:
+ I started driving, after 14 years of serious anxiety around getting behind the wheel and consequently being reliant on other people. I still get nervous sometimes, but I do it anyway.
+ I landed my dream community arts job, the one I visioned 7 years ago, that saw me taking on a lot more responsibility in a role than I ever had before. (I later figured out that I'm not the same person I was 7 years ago and my dreams had changed.)
+ I started building my own solo business (and invested in a mentor to hold myself accountable). This is actually the fourth business I have attempted to create, but the previous 3 start-ups were partnerships with my ex-manfriends.
+ I lived by myself for 6 months. I had my very own studio apartment (aka my womyn cave) where I could do whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted, and I loved it.
+ I began to take my finances more seriously. I decided that my financial life was always going to be chaotic and stressful if I continued to believe that money is a dirty word, so I read this recommended book and downloaded this app.
+ I walked (not fell) into love with a wonderful man- who didn't live anywhere near me- so he said, "sure, I'll come to you; I'd move mountains to get to you" (I relocated myself in my last three relationships.)
I'm not saying I've got it all neatly figured out- I definitely don't- it feels like this is just the beginning. However, in each of these new experiences I learned that more self-responsibility creates more freedom. On the surface that appears to be contradictory, but it's a bit like driving a car- you can't actually steer in the right direction until you're in the driver's seat.

RIDING WITH JOHN COLTRANE
Chasing Trane:The John Coltrane Documentary is a 2016 biographical motion picture celebrating, remembering, illustrating, and honoring, the life and carrier of one our greatest jazz musicians. Both written and directed by veteran filmmaker John Scheinfeld using all of his myriad story telling skills to assemble an artiulate and thought provoking narative. It presents both Coltrane's worldly experience and spiritual leanings against a realistic back drop to further our greater understanding of his genius.
Within this framework Scheinfeld has assembled an outstanding cast of jazz and celebrity luminaries including, actor Denzel Washington, double bassist Reggie Workman, President Bill Clinton, guitarist Carlos Santana, actor Cornell West, composer Wayne Shorter, Pulitzer Prize winner Winton Marsalis, pianist McCoy Tyner and saxophonist (John Coletrane's son) Ravi Coletrane.
Coltrane was born in his parents' apartment at 200 Hamlet Avenue, Hamlet, North Carolina, on September 23, 1926. His father was John R. Coltrane and his mother was Alice Blair. He grew up in High Point, North Carolina, attending the school that is now called Penn-Griffin School for the Arts.In September 1943. His mother bought him his first saxophone. Coltrane played the clarinet in a community band before taking up the alto saxophone during high school. He had his first professional gigs in 1945 in a "cocktail lounge trio," with piano and guitar.To avoid being drafted by the Army, Coltrane enlisted in the Navy on August 6, 1945, the day the first U.S. atomic bomb was dropped on Japan. He was trained in upstate New York before he was shipped to Pearl Harbor.
By late 1945, while stationed in Hawaii, Coltrane joined the Melody Masters, an all white base swing band. There he was treated merely as a guest performer to avoid alerting superior officers of his participation in the band.
Coltrane's first informal recordings, playing alto saxophone with Navy musicians on jazz standards and be-bop tunes, occurred In the summer of 1946. Later that year, Coltrane received his Navy discharge and then made his way to Philadelphia where he studied jazz theory with guitarist and composer Dennis Sandole.
Coltrane confided in his friend saxophonist Odean Popesa that he saw "a wider area of listening open up for me", at this time. "There were many things that people like Hawk [Coleman Hawkins], and Ben [Webster] and Tab Smith were doing in the '40s that I didn't understand, but that I felt emotionally."
An important moment in the progression of Coltrane's musical development occurred on June 5, 1945, when he saw Charlie Parker perform for the first time. In a DownBeat article in 1960 he recalled: "the first time I heard Bird play, it hit me right between the eyes." Parker quickly became an early idol.
Contemporary correspondence shows that Coltrane was already known as "Trane" by this point, and that the music from some 1946 recording sessions had been played for trumpeter Miles Davis impressing him. After he received a call from Davis, Coltrane joined this edition of the Davis band (known as the "First Great Quintet" which featured Red Garland on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and "Philly Joe" Jones on drums) from October 1955 to April 1957. During this period Davis released several influential recordings that revealed the first signs of Coltrane's growing ability. This quintet, represented by two marathon recording sessions for Prestige in 1956, resulted in the albums Cookin, Relaxin, Workin, and Steamin. The "First Great Quintet" disbanded due in part to Coltrane's heroin addiction.
Saxophonist Jimmy Heath describes the road to heroin addiction for Coltrane and himself, “You’re in the club with the pimps and hustlers, and they tell you, here, take some of this, you’ll feel good. And you go for it and then you’re stuck.” Simple as that. But when Coltrane came to the stark realization that staying stuck might take his music away, he put himself through the total agony of cold turkey withdrawal and emerged a changed man. Coltrane own brief words, read by Denzel Washington in the film, describe his post-junkie life. He says simply, “I think better. I play better.”
During the later part of 1957 Coltrane worked with Thelonious Monk at New York’s Five Spot Café, and played in Monk's quartet (July–December 1957), but, owing to contractual conflicts, took part in only one official studio recording session with this group. Coltrane recorded many albums for Prestige under his own name at this time, but Monk refused to record for his old label.
Blue Train was Coltrane's sole album as leader for Blue Note and is often considered to be his best of the period. It demonstrated examples of his chord substitution cycles known as "Coltrane changes".
Coltrane rejoined Davis in January 1958. In October of that year, jazz critic Ira Gitler coined the term "sheets of sound" to describe the style Coltrane developed with Monk and was perfecting in Davis's group, now a sextet. His playing was compressed, with rapid runs cascading in hundreds of notes per minute. He stayed with Davis until April 1960, working with alto saxophonist Cannonball Adderley; pianists Red Garland, Bill Evans, and Wynton Kelly; bassist Paul Chambers; and drummers "Philly Joe" Jones and Jimmy Cobb. During this time he participated in the Davis sessions Milestones and the epochal Kind of Blue
In 1963, John Coltrane met and fell in love with Alice McLeod (also known by her adopted Sanskrit name Turlyasangitana). They married in 1965. He became stepfather to Alice's daughter Michele and the couple had three children: Ravi, John Jr, a drummer; and Oranyan, a DJ who played saxophone with Carlos Santana.
John Coltrane and Miles Davis
The partnership soon went from romantic to creative when John asked her to replace his longtime pianist McCoy Tyner. Coltrane was clearly wanting his sound to become less melodic and more avant-gard and experimental. "We were there for a reason, which was to create beautiful music,” says Tyner and knowing where the band is headed, adds diplomatically with a laugh, “I use the word ‘beautiful’ because I can’t think of a better word.”Alice is generally credited with helping John explore the spiritual side of his art and composition “This is a man who was always looking for a higher dimension in sound,”
Alice said in 1987. “He always explored higher vistas knowing that there is always something higher, something greater."John Scheinfeld's "Chasing Trane: The John Coltrane Documentary" should appeal to longtime fans as well as jazz newcomers. For the jazz veterans there are rare performance clips, alongside insightful interviews with family and famous colleagues.
For newcomers, "Chasing Trane" gives a good overview of the man's biography and influence. The movie tracks the development of his compositions, from the achingly beautiful pop riffs of the '50s, through the ground breaking,self defining collaborations with Miles Davis, to the improvisatory, avant-garde spirituality of the '60s. The history of the man mirrors the history of the jazz medium.

Youth murders up, money for school violence prevention in doubt
by Sarah Karp January 28, 2011 August 15, 2016
Last year the number of murders in Chicago declined by 5 percent, but there’s a disturbing side to that good news: 11 percent more teenagers were killed and about the same number were shot and injured as in 2009, according to statistics from the Chicago Police Department.
That’s 588 shooting victims and 68 murder victims between the ages of 13 and 18. Most of the murders involved firearms.
This news happened the same time Chicago Public Schools was implementing a $50 million two-year project designed to help keep its students safe outside of school. CPS officials point out that, during last school year, the number of shootings and murders of students in CPS schools declined. But their numbers do not include the incidents that happened during the summer months, or those that involved school-age children who were not in CPS schools.
District officials remain passionate about their violence prevention program, dubbed Culture of Calm, and Michael Shields, director of safety and security—and a former Chicago police officer—says he believes the district has created an “infrastructure” that keeps more children safe.
The program is born out of former CEO Ron Huberman’s innovative idea that, through statistics, he could predict which students were in danger of being involved in shootings. By providing them with intensive services, Huberman planned to keep them out of harm’s way.
To that end, he funded two programs: one to provide advocates for the most vulnerable students and another to provide mentors to those deemed to be less at-risk. Also, community groups were given grants to do safety patrols in neighborhoods, keeping watch over students as they arrived at and left school.
Under Culture of Calm, some high schools were given coordinators whose only job was organizing programs and keeping tabs on troubled students.
Shields says that police and principals are sharing more intelligence and that has been one of the best outcomes of the program.
But he’s quick to admit that parts of the program need work. “Everything we do is a work in progress,” Shields says.
In short order, Shields and CPS leaders will have to make some decisions about what elements, if any, are worthwhile and which are not. The program was funded with federal stimulus money, which will run out at the end of this school year. With the federal money closing out and with the state facing another big deficit, the district will face an estimated deficit of more than $700 million.
This tight timeline will ultimately only give a glimpse into whether culture of calm can be successful. Huberman announced the program at the outset of last school year. It took the bulk of the year to design the details and to issue requests for proposals to get organizations on board to do the work. Contracts for community organizations to provide safety patrols and mentoring for the less-at-risk were only awarded at the end of last school year, and the work began in September 2010.
CPS officials say they are hearing good things about these programs. At a meeting held late last year between Shields and students from the Mikva Challenge, a non-profit that helps CPS students get involved in civic activities, several teens said the climate at their high schools had improved since the culture of calm initiative began.
But hard data is still elusive, with only two quarters of grades and attendance for mentees and a survey currently being conducted to gauge whether students feel safer with the patrols.
Only one part of the program really got underway during last school year. Huberman and his team hand-picked Youth Advocate Programs Inc., the Pennsylvania-based social service agency that would provide intensive mentoring to students considered ultra-at-risk, and the agency was given a contract in November of 2009.
And Youth Advocate Programs Inc. didn’t get up and running right away either. Last year, the agency spent just $3 million of the $5 million it was originally awarded, says Jonathan Moy, the CPS liaison for YAP. In November 2010, at Huberman’s last board meeting, members approved an additional $7 million contract for the agency.
Not only did it take the better part of the 2009-2010 school year to hire the advocates and carry out background checks, but the district also had to find the students. The young people were not sitting in school, waiting for help, Moy says. When CPS staff went to look for them, they weren’t easy to find. Some had moved. Others were in jail.
Also, some young people and their families didn’t want anything to do with the program. “Some of the kids were like ‘Screw you,’ ” says Moy, who notes that similar programs run by YAP in other states are operated through juvenile probation departments and are compulsory.
In the end, only about half of the 250 targeted youth signed up.
Moy says CPS officials then began looking to a second, longer list of young people who were identified as high risk—though not ultra-at-risk. They also got principal referrals and even allowed the brothers of some the young people to receive services also. This year, more than 300 teenagers are involved.
“Sometimes we would have a mom who said, “You can try to help him, but you won’t make any real progress if you don’t help his brother,” Moy says.
At first, local community groups were skeptical that YAP could make a difference and thought that organizations with deep roots in neighborhoods would be better suited. With many groups getting funding to do safety patrols and mentoring, that criticism has been tamped down.
Yet there are some in the violence prevention community that still question the focus of CPS’ violence prevention effort.
Tio Hardiman, director of CeaseFire Illinois, says that he is not against YAP, but worries that it is too narrowly focused to make a dent in the problem.
Rather than focus on a small number of students, CeaseFire takes a more holistic approach. CeaseFire is often called by principals to come in and defuse conflicts. They also work in the schools to change the way students think about violence. “We need the kids saying to each other, ‘We don’t even do that around here anymore,’ ” Hardiman says.
He says that the CeaseFire method can work in parallel to the mentoring and advocate programs inside of schools. Hardiman notes that violence interruption has proven to work, yet he’s had trouble securing CPS funds.
While Huberman pitched Culture of Calm as a violence prevention program, officials now say the test of its success should not be whether it has lowered the number of young people shot or killed. Instead it should be whether the targeted students attend school more, stay out of trouble in school and get better grades.
Moy says the advocate program has already produced results. Of the 250 students that got advocates last year, Moy says they rapidly improved by coming to school more and not acting out as much. Last year, among those with advocates, there was a 5 percent increase in attendance and a 34 percent decrease in serious misconducts, according to Moy.
“We could put an infinite amount of resources in place and the unfortunate reality is that, because of their life circumstances, they will be shot,” Moy says.
April Curtis, a program manager for YAP , says she sees the question in another way. “The better question is, who hasn’t been shot?”
Curtis says that three young people in her caseload were shot last year but none died. One of the shootings was over a bike. Two of them were random shootings, but, because of the threat in the neighborhood, Curtis worked to relocate the families and CPS allowed the students to transfer for safety reasons.
Curtis insists that the program’s value rests in young people being protected. “I am not just talking about one of our clients who didn’t get shot, but also our clients who didn’t shoot,” she says.
When an advocate enrolls a young person who hasn’t been in school for months and he attends three days a week, that’s three days that he is in school and safe, Curtis points out.
Also, when a teenager goes on an outing or has dinner at home with mom or calls an advocate when trouble is brewing, he or she is protected. “We had a client call us after a heated altercation and say, ‘I need space, I need to get out of here,’ ” she says. “We were able to help him.”
Curtis tells the story of one young man who held his brother in his arms as he died. His mother is a crack addict and in order to get the consent form signed, the advocate had to find the mother in a crack house. “The one thing the mother said to us is be consistent with my son,” Curtis recounts.
For young people like this, Curtis worries about the program vanishing after this year.
“There’s no good way to walk away from a program like this,” she says.

Nonprofit construction group evolves its mission to help those who are helping others

Who helps the helpers?
It’s a question a New Lenox based group is answering one construction project at a time.
Eight years after it was established to lend a handyman’s hand to anyone in need, the faith-based non-profit organization Operation Nehemiah continues to fine tune its mission.
Rob Lach founded Operation Nehemiah in 2010 while he was a member of New Life Church in New Lenox after participating in the church’s disaster relief efforts across the country. Operation Nehemiah board member Rachel Gilmore said as they helped more more and more people locally, the amount of requests for help and scope of some of the needed construction projects became “kind of overwhelming” for an organization the size of Operation Nehemiah.
The board realized that it would be more efficient to use its networking resources to work with other non-profit organizations and churches that already have a system and staff in place.
“As we’ve gotten out more in the community and people have started coming to us with requests, … we have moved our focus,” Operation Nehemiah board member Rachel Gilmore said. “What we really want to be able to do is partner with other non-profits and churches to be able to equip them to do their ministries.”
Gilmore said an example of how Operation Nehemiah can help another non-profit would be building a storage area for an organization that doesn’t have adequate space to store food but would like to have offer a food pantry for people in need.
“It fits better with our vision and our mission to support these other non- profits and churches,” she said.
Gilmore said Operation Nehemiah will continue to help people who come to them, “but we really want the individual requests to come through a partner of ours.”
“Rob has the biggest and most generous heart available and he will really say yes to everything that’s put in front of him, but sometimes you have to look at your volunteer base and your people power and actual building materials … and sometimes you do have to say ‘I don’t think we’re the right group to help you. We might know a group,’ ” Gilmore said.
Operation Nehemiah has partnered with Habitat for Humanity, All God’s People, Hickory Creek Church, Restoration Ministries, Camp Manitoqua, Cancer Support Center and Overflow Ministry, and many other organizations.
Those partnerships are beginning to alleviate a volunteer problem that has plagued the organization from its inception, Gilmore said.
She said a “core of about 10” people have been working Saturdays over the years to complete projects, sometimes at multiple sites.
Twice-weekly
News updates from the south suburbs delivered every Monday and Wednesday
She said because projects are dependent on getting permits and materials, there is sometimes a lag between the requests and the start dates, making it hard to schedule volunteers in a consistent manner.
“In terms of consistency for volunteers, that’s a hard thing that we struggle with because the goal would be to have something going every Saturday,” Gilmore said. “We certainly have enough connections that we could have projects going (every week).”
Some of those connections, such as the work done recently with the Cancer Support Center and Ballet 5:8, a non-profit dance company using Operation Nehemiah to relocate from Frankfort to larger quarters in Orland Park, have yielded much-needed volunteers, Gilmore said. In other cases, people who have been helped become volunteers as a way to “pay it forward.”
Stil, many more volunteers are needed to fulfill all the requests.
“At this point that’s really what we’re looking at — getting people to come out and work projects with us because the more volunteers we have, the more projects we can do,” Gilmore said.
“(Operation Nehemiah) is a ministry to serve others,” Gilmore said. “That’s Rob’s philosophy. That’s been his philosophy from the beginning.”

Anna & Tim
This week we celebrated a year since our first meeting in person. In that year we have met and dated, we got engaged on Easter Sunday and then in August we got married!
In many ways it feels much longer than a year. There have been so many changes for the both of us that have involved compromises, stepping out of comfort zones, new home, new job, new friends and family - but God has very much been the centre of our journey. After years of patient waiting he has preserved us and brought us together at this time, and we are delighted to have started this new chapter as husband and wife. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12958 | {"url": "https://www.christianconnection.com/success_stories/825", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.christianconnection.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:29:43Z", "digest": "sha1:HSMKY43OPRBVRPBYBOZWK3LWKFZR2FGU"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 602, 602.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 602, 932.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 602, 3.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 602, 25.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 602, 0.99]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 602, 276.4]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 602, 0.52755906]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 602, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 602, 0.02109705]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 602, 0.1023622]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 602, 0.68421053]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 602, 4.15789474]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 602, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 602, 4.18056147]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 602, 114.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 11, 0.0], [11, 180, 1.0], [180, 602, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 11, 0.0], [11, 180, 0.0], [180, 602, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 11, 2.0], [11, 180, 33.0], [180, 602, 79.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 11, 0.0], [11, 180, 0.0], [180, 602, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 11, 0.0], [11, 180, 0.0], [180, 602, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 11, 0.18181818], [11, 180, 0.0295858], [180, 602, 0.00947867]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 602, 0.04242414]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 602, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 602, 0.00175285]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 602, -6.91887945]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 602, 11.06033304]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 602, -23.07523588]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 602, 5.0]]} |
Open Doors USA Urges Christians to Pray for Persecuted Church
By Katherine Weber, Christian Post Reporter
The International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church will be held Nov. 13 to commemorate those persecuted for their Christian faith around the world.
Christian organization Open Doors USA calls upon Christians to show their support for their fellow believers around the world.
“IDOP presents a tremendous opportunity for millions of people to make a difference in the lives of those faithful Christians who are literally under the gun in countries such as North Korea, Iran, Nigeria and Afghanistan,” said Open Doors USA President and CEO Dr. Carl Moeller.
In October, the U.S. State Department reported there are no remaining church buildings or Christian schools in Afghanistan, according to Open Doors USA.
Dr. Moeller encourages Christians to pray especially for the family of Patrick Mutinda.
Mutinda, a guard at the East Africa Pentecostal Church in Kenya, lost his 8-year-old daughter, Winnie, when Islamic extremists threw a grenade into his home on Saturday night. Church member John Kikavu was also killed, and three others were seriously injured.
“Please pray for their families. They and many more are crying out for our prayers,” urged Moeller in a press release Nov. 8.
Christians in Egypt and Iran have also experienced heightened persecution in recent months.
Twenty-seven protesters were killed in Cairo on Oct. 9 when Christian protesters clashed with military forces.
The Christians gathered to protest against the burning of a Coptic church in Southern Aswan that took place on Sept. 30. Local hard-line Muslims, who claimed the church, did not have the license for the construction of a dome, allegedly carried out the burning.
In Iran, Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani is currently awaiting his verdict for charges of apostasy and evangelizing Muslims.
He could potentially be executed for his Christian beliefs.
Christian leaders contend the Arab spring uprisings that occurred early in 2011 have resulted in an anti-Christian sentiment in the Middle East.
Open Doors USA has listed North Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Somalia, Maldives, Yemen, Iraq, Uzbekistan and Laos as the top 10 persecutors of 2011.

Iranian Christian Receives Court Summons
07/21/2019 Iran (International Christian Concern) – An Iranian Christian convert, Mahrokh Roksare Kanbari, has received a summons to appear in the Karaj Islamic Revolutionary Court on July 27th.
She was originally arrested this past Christmas season while at her home in Karaj, Iran. Intelligence officials took the mobile phones, Bibles, and other Christian materials. Mahrokh is 65 years old, and had to endure 10 days of intense interrogation that lasted from morning to evening. She was released after submitting a bail of 30 million Tomans ($2,500).
In January, she had appeared in court on charges of “acting against national security.” The hearing on July 27th is in response to charges of engaging in “propaganda against the system.”
As a theocratic country, Islam is engrained throughout Iran’s political identity. The ruling regime has expressed much concern about the number of Iranians leaving Islam to Christianity. This past Christmas season saw a massive wave of persecution against Christians. It is anticipated that many of those swept up during these raids are currently going through the judicial system, where they will likely face jail time based on trumped up charges.

Just 0.2 mg/kg of the male’s venom is a lethal dose for primates including humans that can kill with in 25 minutes of biting. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12962 | {"url": "https://www.ck12.org/flexi/life-science/arachnids/what-is-the-most-dangerous-spider/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.ck12.org", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:33:09Z", "digest": "sha1:7NLRIBU6VY5ZOB3ROZGOHW22P7KCLQYK"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 400, 400.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 400, 570.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 400, 4.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 400, 10.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 400, 0.89]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 400, 323.1]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 400, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 400, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 400, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 400, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 400, 0.31034483]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 400, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 400, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 400, 0.2625]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 400, 0.2625]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 400, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 400, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 400, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 400, 0.0625]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 400, 0.084375]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 400, 0.121875]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 400, 0.01149425]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 400, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 400, 0.17241379]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 400, 0.67142857]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 400, 4.57142857]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 400, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 400, 3.5921772]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 400, 70.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 34, 0.0], [34, 72, 1.0], [72, 107, 1.0], [107, 400, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 34, 0.0], [34, 72, 0.0], [72, 107, 0.0], [107, 400, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 34, 6.0], [34, 72, 7.0], [72, 107, 6.0], [107, 400, 51.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 34, 0.0], [34, 72, 0.0], [72, 107, 0.0], [107, 400, 0.01403509]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 34, 0.0], [34, 72, 0.0], [72, 107, 0.0], [107, 400, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 34, 0.14705882], [34, 72, 0.05263158], [72, 107, 0.02857143], [107, 400, 0.02730375]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 400, 0.70962894]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 400, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 400, 0.08654028]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 400, -35.18186046]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 400, 5.48644862]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 400, -12.94381169]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 400, 6.0]]} |
Washougal’s Unified Sports create connection, opportunity for all

WASHOUGAL − For Washougal parent Jennie Brown, Unified Sports is more than just an athletic activity, it’s an opportunity for her daughter, Suzanne, to connect with others and hone her new skills.
“Suzanne is very performance-oriented,” Brown said. “Having an outlet for that is huge. This is how she relates to the world.”
Suzanne, a 17-year-old Washougal student with a disability, participates in cheerleading and Unified soccer at Washougal High School. Brown says the socialization opportunities that Unified Sports has provided for Suzanne have been a game-changer.
“Suzanne is non-verbal, so making friends has always been difficult,” Brown said. “Unified Sports gives her an opportunity to practice her emerging conversation skills. Her way of engaging with people is different. Athletics has been a great equalizer for her.”

Washougal School District is one of several Southwest Washington school districts with a robust Unified Sports program. The Unified Sports model combines Special Olympics athletes (individuals with disabilities that prevent typical athletic opportunities) and partners (individuals who participate in typical athletic opportunities) as teammates on sports teams for training and competition.
“Seeing Suzanne learn how to play soccer has been great. She has never been interested in kicking a ball and running around, and now she is happy doing both,” Brown commented. “She uses her cheerleading skills to support and encourage the other players.”
“This is so special for parents and students,” said David Williams, the Unified Sports program lead and a special education teacher at Washougal High. “For parents to see this opportunity for their child, is so meaningful and many have never seen their kids compete on a basketball court or soccer field.”
Suzanne, along with other Unified soccer players are prepping for their District IV Championship matches, which are set for Sat., May 14, at Washougal High School’s Fishback Stadium. The events start at 9 a.m. and last through the afternoon. The games are free and open to the public. Athletes from half a dozen Southwest Washington school districts are competing for a chance to move on to the state competition.
“The athletes get very excited before the matches,” said Williams. “Having people cheer athletes on is in our human nature to enjoy.”

As a special education teacher for seven years, Williams has seen firsthand the sometimes-limited extracurricular opportunities available to special education students.
“The excitement and enthusiasm felt during a match is something that many of our athletes haven’t felt before,” Williams said. “I’m grateful they can have this experience in our schools.”
Jodi Miner’s son Evan also participates in Unified Sports. “This is such a great opportunity for Evan to be socially and physically engaged with his peers,” she remarked. “I love seeing him feel successful and seeing him cheer others on. He absolutely loves Unified.”
While participation in Unified Sports program activities is a fulfilling opportunity for special education student-athletes, the unique rewards of the program are experienced by all participants.
“The magic is watching a general education varsity student-athlete who is not impacted by a disability to build relationships with a special education student-athlete,” Williams remarked. “For many of the general education students, it’s a realization of the opportunities they are presented with. This process creates awareness of the need for inclusion for all. It’s a beautiful thing.”
As a first-year coach, Williams says he is grateful for the strong support the Unified program has received from the Washougal School District and the previous Unified Sports program lead Dani Allen. The program has grown dramatically since it was founded 7 years ago.
Today, there are more than 40 participants in two program sports, basketball and soccer. The soccer program has 20 participants alone, which is enough for two teams. The Washougal Unified Sports received a grant from Special Olympics Washington to get uniforms and other supplies for this year, and they plan to apply for the grant again next year, in anticipation of continued program growth. The district has also invested in an additional coaching position to support ongoing Unified program work.
“Especially for a smaller school district, we have a high level of participation and support from the top down,” Williams said. “It’s very important to the community that all athletes get an opportunity to participate in athletics year-round. Washougal School District really wants this program to succeed.”
Williams hopes the positive momentum continues to build. He’d like to add more sports offerings and create a Unified Sports Student Leadership Group, with the goal of helping general education students get more involved.
“Unified Sports is a significant opportunity in the lives of many families, both for those living with and without disabilities,” Williams said. “We’re creating a more inclusive environment for all student-athletes and I am proud to be a part of this work in Washougal School District.”
“Kids with special needs communicate and relate to the world differently. But all kids’ needs are the same,” Jennie Brown said. “Everyone wants to have friends. Everyone wants to be accepted. Everyone wants something they are good at. Those are universal needs. Unified Sports helps to achieve these things for special needs students and traditionally developing students, alike.”

NASA’s Own Electric Airplane Being Brought To Life

Electric aircraft technology testing at NASA’s Electric Aircraft Testbed began around 2016 when they received a modified Tecnam P2006T fuselage that would be used to build the X-57 (aka Maxwell).
Toward the end of 2019, more than 3 years later, NASA received the first full version of the X-57 Maxwell from Empirical Systems Aerospace (ESAero) of San Luis Obispo, California.
It was still based on the Tecnam P2006T, an Italian 4-seat twin engine light aircraft.
The first iteration had two 60 kW electric motors, but it was noted at the time that the final version of the electric airplane would have 14 electric motors and propellers, 12 of the motors being attached to the wingtips.
In March of this year, NASA published images of the final version of this electric 4-seater, Mod IV. The X-57, which is NASA’s first piloted X-plane in two decades, is seen here in its final all-electric configuration, known as Modification IV, or Mod IV.
This configuration will feature a skinny, high-aspect ratio wing, designed to boost efficiency by reducing drag in flight, and electric cruise motors with five-foot diameter propellers on the wingtips, to recover energy that would otherwise be lost to wingtip vortices.
One of the unique features of the X-57 Maxwell is the row of 12 “high-lift motors and propellers” that run along the wings of the plane. They help the plan take off at industry-standard speeds.
NASA is using the X-57 for is to help create certification standards for electric aircraft.

AI Data Engineering Lifecycle Checklist
Learn the approaches to enable AI project success
The big challenge for organizations looking to gain insights from advanced machine learning models is getting access to large volumes of clean and accurate data. Regardless of whether you build your own models or get them from third-parties, the work must be done to make sure that the data behind the models is of high quality.
To get the most out of advanced machine learning, companies need to focus on the complete data lifecycle. While this may not always be the most fun part of enterprise machine learning, the data lifecycle is incredibly important to get right. The data lifecycle starts well before any machine learning models can be built.
In this whitepaper, you will:
Learn the value of having access to clean data to train internal models.
Understand how to successfully manage the full data lifecycle

Stearns: Congress to issue Solyndra subpoenas
Alan Silverleib, CNN
Updated 9:22 PM EDT, Fri October 28, 2011
Congress to subpoena the White House
NEW: "The subpoenas will be going," Rep. Cliff Stearns tells CNN
House committee will meet Thursday to consider a subpoena related to controversy
The White House is ordering a 60-day review of the Energy Department's loan portfolio
Solyndra received $535 million in federal loan guarantees shortly before filing for bankruptcy
A House GOP leader announced Friday that Congress will be sending subpoenas to the White House for internal documents regarding the decision to issue federal loan guarantees in 2010 to Solyndra, a solar energy company that has since filed for bankruptcy.
“This is an investment of taxpayers’ money that’s gone bad,” Rep. Cliff Stearns, chairman of the Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight, told CNN’s John King. “After eight months of investigations we have a right … to say, ‘what about the internal communications inside the top advisers to the White House? Let’s see them.’”
Stearns added: “The subpoenas will be going.”
The House Energy and Commerce Committee will meet Thursday to consider a resolution authorizing the issuance of the subpoena.
“Subpoenaing the White House is a serious step that, unfortunately, appears necessary in light of the Obama administration’s stonewall on Solyndra,” said a statement issued earlier by Stearns and Rep. Fred Upton, R-Michigan, chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee.
“What is the White House trying to hide from the American public? It is alarming for the Obama White House to cast aside its vows of transparency and block Congress from learning more about the roles that those in the White House and other members of the administration played in the Solyndra mess.”
The White House sent 2,000 pages of e-mail communications to Capitol Hill this month, according to a source familiar with the congressional investigation. The communications provided details about who at the White House was looped in on the deal while red flags were being raised about the financial soundness of the company.
“It appears to us, disturbingly, that there is a close relationship between the investors – the people who were wealthy donors to the Obama campaign – and the people that were involved with Solyndra,” Stearns told CNN. “That disturbs us all and we’d like to see the communications to make sure that is not true.”
Meanwhile, White House Chief of Staff William Daley announced Friday that he is ordering a 60-day independent review of the state of the Energy Department’s loan portfolio. The review will include recommendations about how to improve the loan monitoring process.
The review will be headed by Herb Allison, a veteran of both the Obama and last Bush administrations who oversaw the Troubled Asset Relief Program, among other things.
“The president is committed to investing in clean energy because he understands that the jobs developing and manufacturing these technologies will either be created here or in other countries,” Daley said in a written statement. “While we continue to take steps to make sure the United States remains competitive in the 21st-century energy economy, we must also ensure that we are strong stewards of taxpayer dollars.”
Federal analysts looking at the proposed Solyndra loan in 2009 warned then of possible problems, as well as pressure from the White House to speed up a decision, according to a memorandum released last month by congressional investigators.
Approved in May 2010, the Energy Department’s loan allowed Solyndra to build a factory in Fremont, California, to produce state-of-the-art solar panels.
Solyndra filed for bankruptcy in late August and closed its doors, however, putting more than 1,000 people out of work after it received $535 million in loan guarantees.
The bankruptcy leaves the federal government unlikely to get the loan money back. President Barack Obama touted the company in a widely publicized visit last year.
Energy Department officials defend the decision to back Solyndra, noting that the company’s loan application was nearly complete before Obama took office and that the private-sector gave the company billions in additional funding.

There is no definitive answer to this question as it depends on the specific needs of the photographer.
Some close-up photographers might prefer a compact camera with a macro lens for its portability and ease of use, while others might prefer a DSLR with a dedicated macro lens for its higher image quality and greater control over depth of field.
Ultimately, the best camera for close-up photos is the one that produces the results you are looking for.
Yes, mirrorless cameras are good for macro photography. Here are some of the reasons why:
1. Mirrorless cameras have smaller lenses, which means they can get closer to their subjects than DSLR cameras.
This is ideal for macro photography, as you often need to be close to your subject to capture all the details.
2. Mirrorless cameras have live view mode, which allows you to see what the camera sees on the LCD screen or EVF (electronic viewfinder).
This is really helpful when composing macro shots, as you can see exactly how close you need to be and where your focus point should be.
3. Many mirrorless cameras have built-in image stabilization (IS), which helps reduce camera shake and blurriness when taking photos at close range.
This is a great feature to have for macro photography, as even the slightest movement can ruin a shot.
4. Some mirrorless cameras come with special features that make them even more ideal for macro photography, such as focus stacking and touch AF/MF (autofocus/manual focus).
Focus stacking allows you to take multiple shots of your subject at different focal points and then combine them into one image with everything in sharp focus. Touch AF/MF lets you quickly change your focus point by touching the LCD screen or EVF, which can be very handy when trying to photograph small moving subjects like insects.
There is no definitive answer to this question as there are a number of factors to consider when choosing the best bridge camera for macro photography. However, some of the key things to look for in a good macro bridge camera include a high-quality lens with close focusing capabilities, advanced autofocus system and manual focus control. Additionally, it can be helpful to choose a camera with an articulated LCD screen which makes it easier to compose shots from difficult angles.
If you’re looking to take close-up photos, you’ll need a lens with a short minimum focal length. The shorter the focal length, the closer you can get to your subject while still being able to frame them in your shot. A macro lens is a good option for close-up photography, as they’re specifically designed for taking detailed shots of small subjects.
There are many great camera options for close up shots. Some of the best options include drones, mirrorless cameras, and traditional DSLR cameras. All of these cameras have their own unique strengths and weaknesses, so it is important to find the perfect option for your specific shot. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12969 | {"url":

KCI airport settles on Edgemoor, lower costs
Published Jan. 22, 2019 • Updated Feb. 11, 2019
Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP (SOM)
UPDATE: Feb. 11, 2019: At the Jan. 4 meeting of the Kansas City Airport Committee, Steve Sisneros, Southwest Airlines’ managing director of airport affairs, told committee members that the majority of airlines servicing Kansas City International Airport have reached an agreement with the Kansas City Aviation Department and the Edgemoor Infrastructure & Real Estate team on construction costs for the new terminal. Sisneros said the airlines have set a budget of $1.5 billion, down from $1.64 billion.
Sisneros said the agreement was "a first step in moving the project forward” and that all parties would work together to design toward the new budget. However, Sisneros said the airlines have the ability to adjust that figure if, for instance, there are unforeseen conditions.
The project is still in the early stages of design, and Edgemoor managing director Geoffrey Stricker said the team has found $140 million of savings and could possibly make other changes that could lower costs as well. The $1.5 billion does not include the costs of financing.
KCI Partnership, the AECOM-led consortium that lost out on the new $2 billion Kansas City Airport terminal project to Edgemoor Infrastructure & Real Estate in late 2017, has informed city officials that it still wants the contract and can do it for $1.1 billion less than Edgemoor, according to The Kansas City Star.
KCI sent a letter outlining its general plan to three Kansas City Council members and indicated that part of the cost difference was in potential savings on Edgemoor’s projected debt payments, but Edgemoor disputed KCI’s numbers and said the group was mistaken in its calculations. Some city council members also argued that KCI’s proposal is likely uninformed since it has been out of the project discussion loop during the last year.
Edgemoor and KCI are still working out some project details before executing a final agreement. The airlines, according to the Kansas City Business Journal, must also agree on how they will split the costs for the project before construction can move forward, but that deal is still likely weeks away.
At the end of January, Southwest Airlines, the largest carrier operating out of Kansas City International Airport, told KSHB 41 Action News that it planned to continue negotiations for the construction of a new terminal with the city’s selected bidder, the group led by Edgemoor Infrastructure & Real Estate. This is despite a recent attempt by the AECOM-led KCI Partnership to undercut the Edgemoor team on price by claiming to be able to deliver the new terminal for about $1 billion less than the current cost estimate of approximately $2 billion.
After KCI Partnership made the offer via a letter to members of the city council, three council members reached out to failed bidders Burns & McDonnell and AECOM for the financial details of their proposals. This prompted a protest from Kansas City Mayor Sly James in a statement to 41 Action News.
"So you've asked two bidders who were rejected by the process the council set up to come back now a year after the fact and tell you what they would do differently? To what end? I don't care what they say, there's no way they can do it,” James said. "So why are we bothering with this charade?”
The Edgemoor team also includes Clark Construction, The Weitz Co. and Clarkson Construction Co.
KCI Partnership's move to win the project at that advanced stage was indicative of the project's very combative bidding process. Local engineering firm Burns & McDonnell first proposed using private financing to replace the existing, outdated facility under a potential no-bid scenario, but the AECOM-led group quickly followed with its own offer. The council agreed that handing over the project to a private company was the way to go but opened up the process to other bids.
One advantage that KCI Partnership might have, if its new proposal is accurate, is that the savings it says it can provide brings the cost of the project back down to the original estimate of $1 billion. This is likely closer to the amount that voters were expecting when they cast their ballots in favor of the project in November 2017.
In a public-private partnership (P3), such as the one for the KCI airport terminal, it’s critical that all the parties to the agreement, including those responsible for the design and construction phase, work together to fully flesh out the scope of work and other details of the project so that there are no misunderstandings, costly or otherwise, after work begins.
Agencies that are new to P3s often hire legal counsel or other P3 experts to help guide them through the process but even those who have plenty of experience with the method still end up having to negotiate costly disputes on occasion. As of November 2018, the Florida Department of Transportation, P3 team I-4 Mobility Partners and general contractor SGL Constructors — all party to previous P3s — were still trying to reach an agreement on the P3’s claim for a 245-day delay and $100 million of cost overruns on the $2.3 billion Interstate 4 toll lane project near Orlando, Florida. At the center of the conflict are drilled shaft failures during construction of a bridge foundation and the P3’s assertion that it was prohibited from exploring alternate foundation systems.
A failed bidder for the KCI project says they can do it cheaper, but it’s unclear how The Kansas City Star

Turning gray into red
1 in 3 seniors continue working after retirement to afford health care (Survey)
ConsumerAffairs Research Team
Cassidy McCants
1 in 4 seniors that sold their home in the past two years did so to afford retirement.
Almost 43% of seniors agreed the next generation was likely to suffer from the same or worse financial burdens.
2 in 5 seniors reported living paycheck to paycheck.
Presumably, you’re planning on living well into old age. But, today, achieving senior citizen status comes with a host of financial challenges, from budgeting inadequate retirement savings to dealing with the rising cost of living.
We recently gathered detailed financial information from 1,000 U.S. residents aged 55 and older. We asked them to share their biggest financial burdens, fears and plans for retirement. If you’re curious to see how your financial future may look — and are interested in preparing yourself for the challenges associated with retirement in today’s economy — we’ve got some data for you.
Senior citizen finances: Status quo
The research begins with a look at the overall financial health of Americans 55 and older.
The average retirement age in the U.S. is currently 62; of the survey respondents who were still working, 2 in 5 were living paycheck to paycheck despite potentially retiring within the next decade. While living this way is the reality for 61% of Americans overall, senior citizens are expecting to have no paycheck whatsoever in the very near future, making their lack of financial security all the more alarming.
The No. 1 financial burden among seniors was their mortgage and/or rent payments, according to 24% of respondents. Renters of all age groups have recently faced intensely sharp increases in rent, with price hikes up to 40% in some areas forcing many to leave their homes. In second place is inadequate retirement savings, the biggest financial concern for 17% of seniors surveyed.
Biggest money worries among seniors
The seniors we spoke to shared some of their specific concerns in terms of finances. Notably, fears surrounding the affordability of assisted living seemed to be the most common, with over 60% of all seniors surveyed sharing this concern.
Having an expensive medical issue was another understandable fear, motivated by the burden of health care costs in America. Even without a major medical issue, senior health care costs average upward of a quarter of a million dollars per retired couple. This fear also motivated many to keep working into their old age — 1 in 3 were still working simply to maintain access to health care, in spite of 1 in 4 saying they were embarrassed to work past retirement.
Unfortunately for younger readers, nearly half of all seniors agreed that younger generations won’t have it better — and it’s true that Gen Zers and millennials are facing unprecedented retirement hurdles. Increasing life expectancy means inheriting wealth later, and many feel they can’t rely on Social Security benefits. That said, there are ways to prepare for retirement and drastically improve your chances of a healthy financial future.
Seniors forced to sell their homes
With mortgage and rent payments comprising the single biggest financial burden among U.S. seniors, we wanted to know how they were addressing these constraints. The last section of the study looks at the number of seniors who have sold their homes recently and how this choice has impacted their financial standing.
Twenty percent of all respondents had sold their homes within the past year alone. While selling one’s home out of necessity isn’t ideal, it’s certainly a seller’s real estate market today, with some experts calling it the “mother of all seller’s markets.”
Graceful financial aging
While seniors did share some major financial stressors and worries (not being able to afford a mortgage, having an expensive medical issue and working past retirement despite being embarrassed to do so), there were some significant silver linings. The vibrant seller’s real estate market lately afforded seniors the ability to sell their homes, get out of debt, officially enter retirement and move closer to their families.
Fifty-eight percent had more money to live on, while 44% were able to make their money work harder for them (likely through paper investments). Forty-three percent said selling helped get them out of debt, while 16% were able to move closer to family. And the ultimate goal for many seniors — retirement — became achievable for 25% percent of those who sold their homes.
We surveyed 1,000 Americans over 55. Fifty-five percent were men; 45% were women. The average age of respondents was 66, and ages ranged from 55 to 79.
To help ensure that all respondents took our survey seriously, they were required to identify and correctly answer an attention-check question.
Knowledge — like financial know-how — is power. If you have any senior friends or family members you think would benefit from the findings of this study, you’re welcome to share it.

Looking for part-time work in Cedar Rapids or Iowa City? You may have found a sweet spot because there are a lot of opportunities for job seekers looking for part-time work. Maybe you are unsure if part-time work is right for you, or you really aren’t sure of the opportunities out there. First let’s take a look at why you may be looking for part-time work.
Why work part-time?
Did you lose your full-time job due to COVID-19 or the derecho? If this is you, and you have been patiently looking to get back into your field of expertise but not having any luck, it may be a good time to explore part-time work. It doesn’t have to be permanent, part-time jobs aren’t always meant to be. However working part-time does give you an option for getting some income while you continue searching for positions in your field of expertise.
Have you been out of work for a while caring for a loved one or children? Many people take time away from work to care for family members and kids. Sometimes this can last several years. Some people who do this struggle with what they can bring back to the workplace after a long lay-off. The truth is that caring for a loved one is a job! You have to manage your time, show responsibility, and take initiative. Many people who have done this have great administrative and execution skills that employers are always looking for.
Need some extra cash? Perhaps you have a full-time job and you want to pay down some extra debt or simply increase your income. Finding a job in the evenings or weekends with some flexibility may be a great fit for you.
If you are returning to work after a break, talk about what you enjoyed about your unpaid job, as well as what you hope to gain from re-entry into the workforce.
Stress your work ethic if that is one of your strengths – many employers are looking to check this box.
If this is a second job, be sure to mention you already work, and be clear about what your availability is.
Don’t be discouraged if you have to fill out an old-fashioned job application for a part-time job. Just have your most recent work-history on hand and a few references.

Hip Replacement Myths
Top 6 Hip Replacement Myths
by Cory Calendine, MD, Orthopaedic Surgeon, Hip and Knee Specialist
There will be approximately 400,000 hip replacements completed this year in the US and the number is rapidly increasing. Hip replacement surgical technique and implant design has advanced at a rapid pace, and many outdated hip replacement myths linger, especially on the internet. If you’re suffering with hip pain, don’t allow these misconceptions keep you from seeking advice from a qualified specialist.
1. It takes several months to recover from Hip Replacement
Improved anesthesia and surgical techniques mean hip replacement patients are able to ambulate within hours after surgery and many return home within 24 hours. A commitment to physical therapy and individualized aftercare guidelines will help ensure optimal outcomes.
Within (1) week after surgery, patients should expect to be ambulating safely with a walker or cane. Many patients are able to walk longer distances without assistance devices within 2-3 weeks of hip replacement. By week 4-6, most patients can return to work and enjoy sports including cycling, swimming and golf.
The recovery process after any major surgery is unique to each patient and dependent on many factors including preoperative condition, comorbid diseases and postoperative complications. Our team at the Bone and Joint Institute will follow your progress regularly after joint replacement and coordinate an individualized care plan designed to get you back in action as quickly as possible.
Most patients begin ambulating the same day of surgery.
2. You’re too young for a hip replacement
Many people still associate hip replacements only with patients in their 70's or 80's. While hip replacements are more common later in life, they can be a benefit at any age, and the average hip replacement recipient age is becoming younger.
There was a time when hip replacements were seen as a short-term solution, and were therefore reserved for much later in life (to avoid the need for repeat surgery 10–15 years later). Due to advances in implant materials/design, surgical techniques and rehabilitation, hip replacements are lasting longer and providing patients with a more naturally functioning joint.
When non-surgical treatments have offered limited or no improvement joint replacement becomes an option to eliminate pain and stiffness, even at younger ages.
3. You’re too old for a hip replacement
Osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease that worsens with age, is the most common reason for hip replacement. Some patients only experience debilitating symptoms after they have reached their 80s or 90s.
At older ages, some patients fear that they’re simply too old for a joint replacement and choose not to seek help from an orthopaedic surgeon. Regardless of age, no one should accept debilitating hip pain as a normal part of aging. There are many patients in their 80s and 90s that are able to safely undergo joint replacement surgery and enjoy a better quality of life as a result.
Age alone should not exclude anyone from surgery. During consultation, a surgeon will consider a full range of benefits and risk factors including age, general health and pre-existing medical conditions to determine your individualized treatment plan.
For any patient that is not a suitable candidate for hip replacement, there are other treatment options we can discuss to manage your symptoms.
4. Surgery should be delayed for as long as possible
Hip replacement is typically most appropriate after less invasive treatments have failed to provide joint pain relief. There is a small percentage of patients that may delay needed joint surgery due to worry about the impact or risk of major surgery.
Once joint disease has caused progressive pain and disability, delaying joint replacement can sometimes have significant physical and psychological consequences. In addition to delaying the benefits of surgery, a patient’s condition could deteriorate during a delay and increase the risk of surgical and postoperative complication.
An orthopaedic surgeon can help guide you through the decision-making process while reviewing the risks and benefits of each treatment option. It is true that modern hip replacements now last longer than ever before, and the likelihood of revision surgery for most (even younger) patients remains very low.
At the Bone and Joint Institute of Tennessee, our team strives to provide patients with as much time and information needed to consider treatment options and make an informed decision.
Sometimes, delaying hip replacement can increase the risk of postoperative complications.
5. Your new hip won’t feel or function normally
It’s hard to believe that a metal or ceramic prosthesis could feel or function like a normal hip joint, but most patients report very little difference.
Immediately following surgery, patients often experience some swelling and discomfort around the incision, but typically the hip pain is dramatically improved.
Advances in surgical technique (surgical approach, 3D modeling, robotic-arm assistance) and joint implant designs, mean hip replacement has become a very individualized, precise surgical procedure. Improved implant positioning can provide for a more ‘natural’ feeling joint.
In terms of quality of life and pain relief, total hip replacement is one of the most successful orthopaedic procedures that surgeons perform today. Many patients return to and enjoy a wide range of activities, including cycling, yoga and swimming.
“Following surgery, I was anxious to get back to activities I had enjoyed previously prior to my hip pain becoming intolerable. The physical therapy was tough at times but more than worth it! I’m finally back to enjoying skiing and even running a few times a week.”

6. Hip replacements dislocate easily
Some patients are concerned about the risk of dislocating their hip following joint replacement. Dislocation is uncommon and has declined over time thanks to improved surgical approaches (Direct Anterior Approach) and superior implant design.
The risk for dislocation is greatest in the first few months after surgery while the tissues are healing. If the ball does come out of the socket, your surgeon can perform a procedure (called a closed reduction) that can often put it back into place without the need for more surgery. In situations in which the hip continues to dislocate, further surgery may be necessary.
While there are factors (BMI, age, neuromuscular disease) that can increase a patient’s risk of postoperative dislocation, implant dislocation following primary total hip replacement remains low risk (<2%).
If you are dealing regularly with debilitating joint pain, please don't hesitate to schedule a consult today. From physical therapy and joint injections to total joint replacement, our team at the Bone and Joint Institute of Tennessee with work with you to develop an individualized plan to get you back in action.
How Painful Is Hip Replacement Surgery?
Joint Pain and Mental Health
Chronic joint arthritis pain can increase the risk of mental health problems including depression and anxiety. But as researchers have learned more about how the brain works, and how the nervous system interacts with other parts of the body, they have discovered that pain shares many biological mechanisms with anxiety and depression. New research demonstrates improved mental health status following total hip replacement surgery. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12975 | {"url":

2013annual
Cotton Service Award Honors Woods Eastland
Woods Eastland, board chairman of Staplcotn Cooperative Association and Staplcotn Discount Corporation in Greenwood, MS, is the recipient of the 2012 Harry S. Baker Distinguished Service Award.
MEMPHIS -- Woods Eastland, board chairman of Staplcotn Cooperative Association and Staplcotn Discount Corporation in Greenwood, MS, is the recipient of the 2012 Harry S. Baker Distinguished Service Award. He was honored on February 10 during the National Cotton Council's 2013 annual meeting here.
The award, named for the late California industry leader and past NCC President Harry S. Baker, is presented annually to a deserving individual who has provided extraordinary service, leadership and dedication to the U.S. cotton industry.
Eastland is a past chairman of the National Cotton Council (2005), a past president and chairman of Cotton Council International, and a past director of the Memphis Branch Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. He was a member of the New York Cotton Exchange board of managers and became a member of the New York Board of Trade's Board of Governors when it was formed from the merger of the Cotton and Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa Exchanges. He served one year as vice chairman of that Board.
NCC Chairman Chuck Coley, who presented the award, said that under Eastland's chairmanship, U.S. cotton industry consensus was maintained on critical trade issues. Under Woods' leadership, the NCC worked as part of a fiber/textile/labor initiative that was successful in convincing the United States to self-initiate World Trade Organization (WTO)-sanctioned textile safeguards that would impose a measure of discipline on Chinese shipments of textiles into the United States. In addition, U.S. officials were persuaded to make changes in provisions of the DR-CAFTA that led to NCC support for Congressional approval of that regional trade pact.
Coley said Woods also met with Chinese officials in Beijing and Shanghai to build a better understanding of the need for mutually beneficial trade policies and to encourage them to join with the United States in consumer demand-building activities.
"These efforts served as the foundation for cooperative efforts between both countries that eventually resulted in a long-term relationship and memorandum of understanding between the Council and China Cotton Association," Coley said.
WTO Doha negotiations also were a primary industry focus during Woods' year as Council chairman. He traveled to Geneva twice and to Washington on numerous occasions to meet with key trade officials to discuss the latest developments in the trade talks and convey the cotton industry's message that cotton should not be singled out for different treatment from the rest of agriculture in the negotiations.
Following his service as NCC chairman, Woods continued to provide leadership. He chaired the NCC's Trade Promotion Authority Task Force, which was appointed in 2007 to consider and advise the Board on Trade Promotion Authority policy. He currently is an advisor to the NCC's Board and a member of its Operations Committee.
A native of Doddsville, MS, Eastland holds a B.A. degree from Vanderbilt University and a J.D. degree from the University of Mississippi School of Law. After graduation, he served in the Judge Advocate General's Corps, U.S. Naval Reserve from 1970 until 1972. He then practiced law, and was a faculty member of the Jackson School of Law for two years. In 1974, he became a cotton, soybean and rice farmer in Sunflower County. He served as president and CEO of Staplcotn from 1986-2010. He and his wife, Lynn, have two children and three grandchildren.

I want to give my love, kindness, care not only to my children, but also to live for the only man I love, with whom I will wake up together and enjoy life.

Fulbright Scholarship
Creative Ireland Museum Fellows Sally McHugh and David Stone Picture Conor McCabe Photography.
The Fulbright Commission in Ireland is a bilateral partnership supported by the U.S. Department of State and the Department of Foreign Affairs. The Fulbright Program is the flagship international educational exchange program sponsored by the U.S. Government designed to increase mutual understanding.
In 2018, the Creative Ireland Programme and the Fulbright Commission in Ireland concluded an Agreement to provide financial support to fellowships known as The Fulbright Creative Ireland Museum Fellowships. The objectives of these fellowships are:
To harness the transformative potential of arts, culture, creativity, scientific inquiry and heritage preservation through research collaborations;
To provide post-graduate students with dedicated access to the internationally renowned research collections held at one of three world-class museums in the U.S.;
Through such access, to enhance the depth, range and quality of research activities conducted by Irish students in the United States; and
To create opportunities for collaboration between Irish, U.S., and other international scholars at those institutions
The participating museums are the Smithsonian Institution (comprising 17 museums and galleries), the Harry Ransom Center in Austin, Texas and the Exploratorium in San Francisco. The roll-out of this successful partnership has seen a number of candidates studying for their PhD undertake valuable placements in the receiving US museums during 2018 and 2019. They have provided very positive feedback of both the experience and its value to Ireland.
Building on this success, the Creative Ireland Programme signed an additional Agreement with the Fulbright Commission to create an additional fellowship that encompasses experienced professionals operating in the cultural /cultural heritage and creative sectors. The Fulbright and Creative Ireland Professional Fellowship offers opportunities for example to staff working in education and learning units in the National Cultural Institutions or regional cultural heritage facilities who may have many years’ experience in their field but are not undertaking a doctorate, to apply. It also offers the broader cultural and creative sector an opportunity to apply. This professional fellowship isn’t confined to prescribed host US institutions, and it is a matter for applicants to identify a suitable host institution with support from the Fulbright Commission.

Fish, Hike, and Picnic at Lake Waterford Park.
The great part about living where we do is the variety of landscapes you can experience close to home. One stunning locale you have to visit this season is Lake Waterford Park. This gorgeous park is a serene escape into nature in the midst of a bustling suburban center. Located on over 105 sprawling acres of lush green space, the park is a place with a little something for everyone.
The main draw is the 12-acre lake. There’s something so peaceful about watching the trees reflect off the water on a hot summer day. If you’re a fishing lover, you can grab a pole and sit on the banks to see what you can catch. On a hot day, hiking the trails covered by sprawling trees is a great way to get out and explore. For those with little ones, the playground is one of the best in the area. You can also reserve the pavilions if you want to have lunch with friends under a shady cover after a morning of playtime in the sun. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12980 | {"url": "https://www.creekstonevillage.com/blog/fish-hike-and-picnic-at-lake-waterford-park/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.creekstonevillage.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:00:25Z", "digest": "sha1:YHSAHV4MNKUGW4PP4Y7RMZYFQKUSR7KK"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 967, 967.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 967, 2176.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 967, 3.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 967, 85.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 967, 0.94]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 967, 275.8]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 967, 0.47826087]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 967, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 967, 0.03133159]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 967, 0.04438642]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 967, 0.10628019]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 967, 0.59782609]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 967, 4.16304348]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 967, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 967, 4.36335473]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 967, 184.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 47, 1.0], [47, 433, 1.0], [433, 967, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 47, 0.0], [47, 433, 0.0], [433, 967, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 47, 8.0], [47, 433, 70.0], [433, 967, 106.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 47, 0.0], [47, 433, 0.00789474], [433, 967, 0.00381679]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 47, 0.0], [47, 433, 0.0], [433, 967, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 47, 0.12765957], [47, 433, 0.01813472], [433, 967, 0.01123596]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 967, 0.32754278]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 967, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 967, 0.00057018]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 967, -23.23444935]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 967, 10.62927335]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 967, -60.51267362]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 967, 11.0]]} |

New Clip From Saban Film's 'The Legend Of La Llorona'
A malevolent spirit bent on vengeance, stalks a young family visiting Mexico. Andrew, Carly, and their son Danny travel to an isolated hacienda in Mexico for a much-needed vacation. As they enter the town, signs showing missing children set an ominous tone. The family learns of the legend of “La Llorona,” the evil spirit of a distraught mother who lurks near the water’s edge and strikes fear in the hearts of all who see her. La Llorona torments the family mercilessly, snatching Danny and trapping him in a netherworld between the living and the dead. Aided by the resourceful taxi driver Jorge (Danny Trejo, Machete, From Dusk Till Dawn) the family races to save their only child, navigating the foreboding countryside held by menacing cartel thugs. Gaining strength and power and leaving a path of death and destruction in her wake, La Llorona is seemingly unstoppable. But a secret from Carly’s past may provide an opportunity to finally defeat the spirit.

HomeGuidesWhat makes Cryptocurrency a Security?
With the rise of cryptocurrencies, many people are left wondering about their financial and regulatory status. In particular, one of the important questions is whether or not cryptos qualify as securities under SEC regulations. We’ll dive into this issue by exploring what makes security according to the SEC guidelines, how it affects crypto users, and where things may go in terms of cryptocurrency regulation in the future. The Thorenext platform has strict security measures. Hence, you are sure that your investments will be safe.
Crypto Security
Negotiable financial instruments such as bonds, stocks, derivatives, treasury bills, debentures, and mutual funds are known collectively as securities. Companies or the government typically issue these to raise capital for various purposes. As with any investment opportunity, there is an element of risk associated with them; Thus, it’s important to ensure that investors adequately inform themselves about potential risks before getting involved in any security-related investments.
Are Cryptocurrencies regarded as security?
The degree to which cryptocurrencies are believed to be secure is the topic of a lot of discussions and is still a little ambiguous. Exchanges as well as crypt entrepreneurs take additional measures to make certain that they work in compliance with the law in various monetary markets. Even though cryptocurrencies tend to be mostly unregulated, a lot of crypto proprietors as well as exchanges continue to be not able to do business as they desire despite this fact. They’re subjected to tax laws and regulations which differ from one nation to another.
What is the Howey Test?
The Howey Test, introduced by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), is a criterion used to determine if an asset or transaction qualifies as a security. To fulfill this criterion according to the test, there must be an investment of money in a shared venture with assets deriving profits through the effort of another person. Let us look at the significance of the Howey Test by taking a look at just how cryptos complement the 4 major criteria:
In a Common Enterprise
This particular criterion requires the cash invested must be aimed towards the very same business. Thus, the results of the investor have linked with the success of the business or maybe entity he or maybe she’s getting into. Expertise from third parties may also be a part of a common enterprise. To some degree, you don’t need some outside knowledge to benefit from purchasing crypto money. When we check out crypto lending services, in which customers lend cash and also get a variable or fixed return according to the way an exchange utilizes it, we might discover that there’s about 33% party expertise active in the procedure.
To be derived from others’ efforts
If a person puts lots of effort into an asset, it’s probably not secure. This standard is intended to separate the purchaser from the intermediary because they’re likely to have distinct duties. You might conclude that cryptocurrencies don’t pass the fourth test because there’s no third party that’s responsible for guaranteeing investors’ success. No business is attempting to make investments succeed, much as in the situation of stocks. It’s much more related to investor activities as well as group market opinion than specific market movements.
Stablecoins possess an active community that helps them keep their reliability, and they might succeed in this test in case they do. In case we look for cryptocurrency staking and lending businesses, where in an exchange or maybe system places your cash to be used for profit, we may determine that there’re many third parties involved.
Money Investment is Must
This criterion is quite simple to understand. This merely implies that any investment in an asset has to entail cash before it could be considered a security. Investing in cryptocurrencies entails investing money because various investors put their cash into the cryptocurrency.

Spotify picks up 8 million subscribers by copying Apple Music

When Apple Music made its debut, one of the biggest reasons to switch from rival streaming services was for its $15 family plan. But it wasn’t long before Spotify copied it — and it’s been paying off in a big way.
The bargain family plan helped Spotify attract another 8 million paying subscribers during the second quarter of 2018, taking its total number to 83 million worldwide.
Just like Apple Music, Spotify costs $9.99 for an individual Premium plan. But for an additional $5 a month, you can subscribe to a family plan that offers all the same features for up to six people. Obviously this is a sweet deal.
It’s no surprise, then, that the family plan is helping Spotify achieve impressive growth.
Spotify’s family plan is a hit
In the three months leading to June 30, 2018, Spotify picked up an additional 8 million paying subscribers to take its total number to 83 million. That’s an increase of 40 percent year-over-year.
“Family Plan continues to be a primary driver of gross adds,” the company states in its earnings report. What’s more, those who subscribe to the family plan tend to stick around longer than those who opt for a Premium subscription.
This growth helped Spotify rake in €1.27 billion (approx. $1.45 billion) last quarter — an increase of 12 percent over the first quarter of 2018. However, the company still isn’t making a profit after posting losses of €90 million.
Spotify still boasts more subscribers than Apple Music worldwide — around twice as many — and it remains much more popular in Europe and other markets. But as things stand, Apple Music does have more paying users in the United States.

Haley Scholars (Group 2) Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah's "The Era"
[Haley Reading Groups Spring 2022]
Since 2009, we've done this reading group and in the process covered dozens of readings. But perhaps we've never read a short story quite like Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah's "The Era." It's a story set in a future world after various wars and a re-organized society where genetic engineering has apparently gone to extremes, and brutal honesty has quite brutal.
After reading "The Finkelstein 5" and now "The Era," I think we have to say something, really a lot of things at some point about the creative and intriguing ways that Adjei-Brenyah's mind works.
Alright, I'm not even fully sure what questions to ask you because "The Era" disoriented me in unexpected and ultimately useful ways. So for now, let's do this: imagine several of us were in a room discussing this story. What should we focus on first concerning "The Era"? Why?
Taylor Corbin said...
An important focus in The Era was how parents of the future would be able to optimize their fertility when trying to have a child and pick certain characteristics. It's sad that the people could not just be happy and love the child no matter what. And they felt like picking certian things to so call improve the child would make it better.
Josephine Kanyi said...
I haven't had a passage throw me in for such a loop as much as this one did. It's important to focus on the constant dissatisfaction that people living in the industrial era are facing. The era is not just about futuristic predictions but does a good job at depicting mental health specifically depression. To the main character Ben, Good is simply an escape from the sad reality his life is and reflects on how a lot of people find different avenues to distract themselves from their current reality, and some end up being addictive coping mechanisms like "good" was for Ben.
Mysaiah Chambers said...
For me, in the Era, it's just so sad and disappointing. What happened to loving yourself for who you are. We are unique in our own ways and shouldn't change our genetics because of what we might see as a flaw, but in reality it's true beauty. When we start loving ourselves for who we are and be blessed that we can be our own person then we can start to move on a little more in the world.
Layla Brooks said...
An important focus is how harsh they are towards each other or they seemed so mean to themselves. Like for example, Samantha would talk poorly about her self or even the teacher and student dynamic seem harsh. I would want to talk as a group saying do we feel like the chapter reflects how people are in real life.
Cidney C. said...
An important focus to go into is how the new society is run. If genetic engineering is supposed to be a utopian society, then that is truly sad. This new way of living is not any better than the way we live now; there are divisions between the rich and poor and judgmental people.
Maya Chapman said...
How the new society is run is a crucial point to consider. That is extremely terrible if genetic engineering is supposed to be a utopian society. This new style of life is no better than the way we live now; there are still divisions between affluent and poor, as well as those who are judgmental.
If we were sitting in a room I would make a case about the shoe lookers. This may not be super important but it does play a role in what the setting and society of this story is suppose to look like. We could connect the so called shoe lookers in this story to whom we may call shoe lookers in our every day society. We also could connect the meaning of good to what our own "good" maybe symbolized in our world.
Tomia B. said...
An important focus I would have mentioned during our discussion would be how this story gave me "a look into the future". Society is constantly changing and because of that the "do's and don'ts" are changing along with it. The more I read the passage, the more I could connect with this passage in an oddly yet valid way. The characters talked in the unspoken way of Americans. In today's world, judging has sadly become a norm for many. The way these students spoke was considered "truthful" in their world. which would be offensive in ours. The reason I made this connection was because looking at today's society, sooner or later that may be what's "normal" one day. The loneliness and low self-esteem that the character unknowingly was going thru is another valuable connection. Teens now adays often go thru depression and/or feel lonely and take that sorrow to hurt someone else. Although the way they spoke to each other is how it's always been, at the end of the day, their still human. People were being judged and got called nicknames like "shoelookers" because they simply just wanted an escape from reality.
Charles R
The Era focus on the future, society, family, and how emotions are handled in a dystopia. In Era, the sister Leslie is judgmental of others while the brother works on being good. Also, the parents telling their child that he was a mistake show how emotionally disconnected families are to each other.
Marlon C. said...
I think if we were all in a room together, I would bring up the importance of them treating themselves. I think they are all either mean to one another or to themselves. The students in this book are so disrespectful to their teachers, and it's sad. As an Education major, I couldn't imagine teaching in this era.
Justin Burns said...
In a discussion group for the chapter we've read, I'd find it immediately more important to make concerns of the society's similarities to our society. When examining behavior's of specific characters I found it interesting to see the direction of their slowly developed mental illness and living status. Rather than going in a direction that rings happiness for those surrounded, the chapter shows everyone falling into an increase of poverty and mental illness. The environment is very concerning.
Harrison B. said...
I would want to talk about why the "good" is considered a good thing during this time, and why people with emotions are considered "shoe lookers". I just find it weird that people with emotions have to hide them, but I can also see a similarity in today's society. In most black households we grew up to hide our emotions because mental illness is not common in black families. Now things are changing and more black people are going to therapists and getting help because we have emotions too. Generations before us basically grew up as shoe lookers and were forced to become "good" and tried to make their children "good" as well.
Kendall B. said...
An important focus is mental health issues with-in the passage. A lot of the mental health issues and society standards made it hard for the characters to know the true meaning of self love . Reading about the events made me sad because I focused on how important mental health is in this era .
Anijah Barringer said...
After reading about “The Era” what caught my attention the most was the fertility topic. I know that in today’s society you’re able to basically “make your own baby” as far as choosing the ethnicity of the child (Which is not important at all). But in the reading the parents were able to choose more specific characteristics of what their child would have. It was kind of sad because, your child is someone who you should love unconditionally and the parents basically “shopping for the genetics” of their unborn child was disheartening. It doesn’t matter what your child looks like or what gender they are, you should be blessed with what you receive naturally.
Anijah B.
Ruth B. said...
After reading The Era, if we had a discussion, I would talk about how the story relates to the real world at times. In the story, it mentions how society doesn't allow the people to "show emotion" or "be emotional", I think that relates to our society in real life when it comes to men. It was sad when the narrator stated, "And then there's Nick and Ralphy, who are who are the class shoelookers. Being emotional is all they are, and it means they aren't good for anything." This quote was sad because it shows how much society rejects the mental state of individuals. This ties back to real life because this happens often. It is detrimental especially at a young age because kids grow up to think that their emotions don't matter. Calling them "shoelookers" in the book was a way to make them feel inferior. This, in the real world can relate or look a little different. Overall, this part of the book related to the society in the real world.
Shaquerria Cole said...
Lots of things kind of got my attention in this reading; the ability to have control over the genetic makeup of kids, the status of different people, and the use of "Good". I felt sad for the main character because his parents didn't care about his genetic makeup like his sisters causing him to feel like he needed "Good" to be a good person. After he visited Samantha's weird family, he understood why people thought they were weird, and it started to change how he looked at things.
Willie D said...
In “The Era”, it was sad to read that the parents didn’t love their child for who they are. Just like every human being, we have our flaws in our systems that we just have to continue to live through. Regardless of how your child look, you should love their your child more than anything.
Elizabeth Alao said...
In The Era what got my attention the most was the dismissal of individuals feeling in society. I believe that every human should viewed as their own people and in the book it really emphasized how individualism is overlooked. How every human has their flaws and their beauties. Especially at a young age where people are builds their personalities, if that whole concept of individualism is dismissed then it can greatly affect the whole concept of personality as one is growing up.
In discussing "The Era," the point of focus I would like to address is the standard of perfection/ "optimal" being. It's fascinating that some of the qualities that makes human beings beautiful (empathic, sensitive, genuinely loving) are considered as a weakness/defect.

Jordan L Allen said...
This chapter holds a special setting within a classroom, filled with students who don't really care about the lesson they're being taught. The student's mental illness can be conveyed bi-polar because, in their mind, they keep calling others ugly or stupid based on being aggressive and mocking.
Something that stood out to me in the era was the mental health. What, I mean by that is the lack of genuine love and overlooking of individuals. The society standards made it hard to love yourself let alone others.

Alexis D said...
The focus that I feel like is important was how the chapter talked about the future. Society is constantly changing whether it is technology, parenting skills, school, school system, the law, and more. I connected a lot with the chapter because I can see how the world is changing and how us as a society are always trying to adapt to it. I feel like this would be a great topic to have a discussion on.
Chidi Anyamele said...
In "The era" one thing that sticks out to me is how uniqueness is just overshadowed by "perfection". It's truly sad how the parents couldn't just be happy and love the child for who they are. Instead, they genetically optimized their fertility and chose certain characteristics to make the so-called wonder child.
-Chidi A
Saniya Buck said...
This passage will have your thoughts all over over the place while reading it. As I was reading the passage it's hard to just focus on one part but, something that stood out to me the most is the feeling of the society and how everyone was treated and viewed as a person. being judged before evening knowing how someone really is unrealistic. In the Era, its upsetting how people can judge you without even knowing you and what your capable of.
Airika Carr said...
If we were to discuss this topic in class I would talk about how they speak and think about it each. They come off as very rude and hateful when they speak to each other. The sad part about it is that many people actually act like this towards each other and it's very sad.I feel like we should learn to speak our minds without talking to each other in such disrepectful ways.
Kelan Branch said...
After choosing "The Era", I noticed it's lack of empathy for other people. Instead of helping those in need, we simply judge them based on their flaws and push them down for it. This is concerning because of how harsher society is becoming each year. I want people to reflect on this so that they too can realize how insensitive we are becoming as a whole.
Jordan Brawley said...
I'd talk about parents having the ability to choose the characteristics of their children. It makes me sad because I believe you shouldn't care how your children look as long as they are happy and healthy. I also believe you should love your children for who they are, flaws and all.
Starr C said...
"The Era" showed how a utopia can truly be a dystopia. By trying to be"perfect" people lost what made them human. What stood out to me the most was the ignorance of mental health and the ignorance the parents had towards their kids. This truly showed me how important empathy is and how it keeps us human.
-Starr C
Itangishatse Bujeni said...
I’ve always been one to make a case for honesty but after this short story maybe not so much. This society may have honesty but I feel as if it is missing everything else that makes living with other human beings bearable. Does honesty mean ranking children, isolating what we think is undeserving of praise based on some score, some are the “shoelookers” and others perfect like Marlene? The thought that I kept circling back to is that this society is ironically lying to itself if it really believes that this honesty is not just as brutal as the lies that brought them war before. This “utopia” has all of the negative components of any but to an extreme. Any society that ranks or oppresses will face the same consequences of any dystopia.
Jasmyne Rush said...
My case for the readings this week would pertain to how someone is viewed and how they feel about it. In the beginning of this section, The Era, the teacher, Mr. Harper, is doing a terrible job at building his students confidence. He is instead pointing out and telling them how imperfect they are and why they'd always be "unoptimal" to others. The students can't even express their emotions truly because their emotions are disregarded by others because it shows them as being inadequate. Also, I instantly noticed how some students have an implanted chip in their bodies while those who are "unoptimal" don't.
Damilola Adebisi said...

I thought the reading was pretty interesting but when I first started reading it, I thought the plot was confusing at first. If we were in class discussing this, something I would want to talk about is that specific era. In the beginning, it talked about how the main character described the classroom setting in the story. The main thought school was stupid and basically thought he was too dumb to learn anything, so did other students. I also feel like this reading focused on America's education system.

"The Era" is set in a futuristic future where it is forbidden to express one's emotions. While trying to evaluate a child, future guardians will want to streamline their ripeness and pick specific features. We are all unique in our own ways, and we should not alter our DNA in response to what we perceive to be a flaw. They're either ruthless to one another or heinous to themselves. Despite her sibling's efforts to be great, Leslie condemns others. Additionally, guardians telling their child that he made a mistake. What happened to accepting yourself exactly the way you are?
I find the drug outrageous.There is nothing wrong with trying to improve yourself but it shouldn’t take a drug to force it. I don’t blame the parents for modifying their children, they were giving them the tools needed to survive in their harsh and judgmental society.
-Amoya B
Muhammed Aboderin said...
I would make a case on how genetically engineering your child to be "optimized" is a terrible thing to do and is basically plastic surgery for newborns. Additionally, reading this story has taught me how important caring for your mental health actually is.
Aaron Crawford said...
To me an important focus is the way they did fertility. I honestly think it's crazy that parents can essentially changes things about their child to "improve" them. I think that's sad, your parents are supposed to be your biggest supporters and not judge you over things like appearance. Reading this made me a little sad because what they're not doing is out of love, it feels like personal gain.
-Aaron Crawford
One thing I would discuss is how they handle emotion in this dystopia, and the lack there of. Another thing that caught my attention was the heavy use of the word "good" in the chapter. There were so many instances where "I haven't had any Good since..." or just simply "I haven't had any Good" would be said. This brought the question of what is the definition of "Good" in both the story and the real world? What constitutes something as being a good thing?
- Camille Brown
Shakyiah C said...
A point that I would focus on is the drug, "Good", they use to stay prideful and happy to some sort. The dosage reminds me of a game called "We Happy Few". Where society relies on a drug called "joy pills" to make it through the day in the aftermaths of a terrible war. The Joy Pills only allows them to feel happy and view nothing is wrong with the world. They choose to push away all their emotions through Good or just not show it at all because they saw it affected people in the past and view it as the reason for the wars. But emotions are one of the things that make humans, humans. I believe that there is a point they have with the honesty part. But not as blunt that we forget about emotions. I also think even if we had the honesty as "The Era" demonstrated, it would not make a big of a change that it did in the story.
Jordan Barnes said...
When I was reading this article "The Era" I was really sad and kind of bummed out. First, I didn't like how the teacher was treating the ben and the other students. I didn't like how the teacher was insulted the students. But I believe that the teacher was trying to toughen up ben and the student in his own way.
Alex Childs said...
An Important focus for me from "The Era" would. be self love. It goes to show that in the real world we feel as though we are not perfect when compared to others. It makes us feel like we have to change something about ourselves to give us gratification. When in reality we are perfect just the way we are and there is no need for comparison amongst other people. Worrying about such things can cause emotion stress and it can kill your motivation. In this futuristic society these concepts do not apply they are not allowed to show emotions. Which in my opinion takes the humanity away from the people because emotions are how one expresses themselves.
Arieona B. said...
After reading “The Era '' I would most likely first focus on the translation of the terms used like shoelooker, times they are learning in school (old vs new), different statuses of families/children, the “good”, etc. After decoding what everything actually means it helps you to get the message of the bigger picture. Which I think could be the effects of how you are raised, what you are taught, and your environment has on your personality and mental health.
Arieona B.
Erin Myers said...
Abdixakin A.:
Reading the era I noticed how these blows at the student were so personal. I could not imagine how he felt when he called him stupid and the whole class laughed. Saying things like this would hurt the student's self-esteem and lower their confidence. Also, the students in the classroom judge people and how 'ugly' they are based on how they act at a certain moment.
Naomi B. said...
While reading "The Era" I was a bit confused as to why everyone was so truthful. For example, when Ben told his teacher that he basically wanted to beat him with a rock, I was shocked at the teacher's response given the fact that in today's world that would've been considered a threat and extreme consequences would've followed. As I read along one small detail about the "Shoe-lookers" stood out to me. The fact that they were seen as weak, emotional and untruthful for crying all the time really said a lot about the society. Sadness is a true emotion and if they are simply expressing that emotion because it is how they feel all the time how they are being untruthful. Obviously if you cry it's for a reason, and them simply crying and expressing the sadness they are feeling is them being true to their emotions, so I didn't understand how they were seen as untruthful.
While I get that the father is trying to prepare the kids for the harshness of the real world, the harshness still caught me off-guard. The kids might end up resenting him cause at the moment they don't understand the "lesson" he is trying to teach them. Just felt so dismissive.

Shelbe Davis said...
Sheena C.:
A great discussion topic would be acknowledging the threat that our world could possibly turn into theirs. For one thing, their society does not want nor seek emotional value. They make fun of others who do exhibit these attributes of feelings. Even their teacher allows for students to be called ugly and fat in the classroom. This could relate to the idea that many experience in their households, friend groups, classrooms, jobs etc. Where people do not value others feelings or take time to have empathy for you. In the chapter, it is interesting that the people who do have emotions are called “shoe-lookers” because if this is supposed to be a better way of life then why are people seemingly heavy from their emotions. That they droop down and only look at shoes? Similar to in our world, social media is supposed to give us serotonin when we scroll on our phones, so why are people becoming more unhappy?
Corey Anderson,
I want to talk about how crazy it is for adults to "make" their children how they want them to be. The point of haveing a child is to watch them grow and form personalities, whats the point if you already did that for them.
Kambria C. said...
A main element in The Era was how future parents would be able to improve their fertility and select specific qualities while seeking to conceive a kid. It's a pity that the people couldn't just be pleased and love the child regardless of the circumstances. And they believed that picking certain things to "enhance" the child would help.

One of the major things I focused on was parents being able to pick out their children's characteristics. All children are blessings. So how they come into this world is how they are supposed to be. I also thought that the dad was being a little hard on the kids. It is important to raise them in the right manner though. Everyone is different, but everyone is perfect as they are. It was really hard for me to see how other kids were treating each other.

The important focus in the book is family and society. Mainly through the story the things that would catch your eye is how the family treat each other harsh. How strictly the parents and how they raise them . It also focuses on the society how society is now days. How they let that guilty man walk off away not guilty and they had all the evidence to prove that he was guilty. That's how society it is today.

What I would bring up, is the importance of mental health and self-awareness. Many people neglect caring for their well-being and find their feelings being invalidated. It's good to spread awareness over these issues.

In “The Era” it was shocking to see how people chose how their kid looks instead of wanting them to have characteristics of them. I would think it’s more important for my child to feel a part of the family. But in “The Era” they judge so quick, if you don’t look one way, you’re disregarded they don’t care about what’s real they just want a fantasy it was very saddening.

The main thing I was concerned about was the ability of the parents to control their child's future "decisions"I would technically say they were dehumanizing their children to their standards as they are choosing specific characteristics in their future lives the children can't control. So the children end up living the ideal lives of their parents instead of learning and doing it on their own!

I thought the reading was interesting but as I first started reading it, I thought the plot was a little confusing at first. If we were in class discussing this, something I would want to talk about is that specific era. In the beginning, it talked about how the main character described the classroom setting in the story. The main character thought school was stupid and basically thought he was too dumb to learn anything, so did other students. I could relate to that because in most of my classes it feels like i'm the only one who doesn't know what they are doing is me and it feels embarrassing I also feel like this reading focused on America's education system.
Thiane D.:
I feel as though we should have a lot of concern for Ben because he is taking a lot of the "good" medicine and pill in order to keep him happy. There is a fact that no should rely on a pill to keep them happy or sane because its unhealthy and you can be addicted to the substance. Mental health was shown a lot in this piece of literature. I liked how the author provided intake in all of this and said how the drug "good" was consuming Ben and how he could not go without it. I feel as though this is a good example of how society is today when it comes to mental health. Most people do not want to go to therapy or things like that so they try to find the easier way out which is taking pills and not actually doing the work to get better.

changing things so that one fits in is something we all would do even in minor ways, but to change someone before they could even be appreciated with their faults kind of takes from the heart of humanity and humanism. There will always be faults regardless of how hard one tries to rid of them.
I would say we should start off with parents and the toxic control they have over their children. I believe parents should not dictate their child's life but instead support them and help them. Children should have love and support from the parents no matter what.
-Ivorie Arthurs
With this story the focus of conversation should be how the parents interact with their children. They did not seem in touch with their emotions which is concerning. A child should not have to rely on drugs to deal with their emotional trauma. It also makes me think of generational trauma and what the parents went through as kids to want to live through their children.

Allana B.:
After reading this and having a group discussion about it the first major thing I would want to discuss is mental health. I am a big advocate for mental health and none of them displayed good mental health. With everything going on around them and society’s standards it makes it hard for them to be able to have self-love for themselves and no one else is telling them to have it either, they were overlooked, and treated very inhumanly. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12985 | {"url":

Building Repair – Apartments vs. Townhouses
There are a good number of strata corporations consisting of townhouse units and apartment units. While all units comprise the one strata corporation, it has been my experience that in a great many situations the townhouse owners wish to be “separate&uot; from the apartment owners. The Condominium Act provided for that separation by operation of section 128(2). The Strata Property Act, of course, has replaced the Condominium Act. In the process of that replacement, the new Act has recognized that there can be different “types&uot; of residential strata lots, the word “type&uot; having been used in section 128(2) of the old Act. This independence is relatively easy to deal with when addressing costs such as high rise enterphone or elevator. However, this independence and how it is addressed has become very significant when dealing with common property building envelope repair as the result of leaks and other deficiencies.
In the case Strata Corporation LMS 509 v. Andresen and others, (known as the “Chelsea Green&uot; case), Mr. Justice Skipp of the B.C. Supreme Court dealt with the responsibility of townhouse owners assisting with the expense of repairing the apartment building envelope. This case has a number of issues and a far reaching effect on mixed townhouse and apartment units in the future. The balance of this article will reflect a summary of the Chelsea Green case and the findings of the Court judgement delivered February 7, 2001.
Chelsea Green was a leaky condo to the extent that the apartment building leaked and the estimated cost to repair amounted to over $600,000.00. Predictably the 182 townhouse units owners were very reluctant to agree to pay unit entitlement contribution for the repair of the 42 apartment unit building. The resolution to repair the apartment building on the basis of contribution of all the owners was defeated.
The Court first had to deal with the issue whether the Condominium Act or the Strata Property Act governed the situation. The apartment owners lawyer argued that the old Act applied because all times relative to the dispute occurred and all pleadings were filed prior to July 1, 2000. The Court held that pursuant to the transition provisions of the new Act, the Strata Property Act and the Strata Property Act Regulations governed the dispute, even though events prior to July 1, 2000 were relevant in determining how the repair levy would be treated as an expenditure.
The Court then addressed whether there were actually different “types&uot; of strata lots at Chelsea Green. The Judge found on certain unique circumstances that due to the Strata Council conducting itself for past repair expenses on the basis that there was only one type of strata lot, even though the budget indicated different types, the Strata Council had acted within its discretion as afforded by the legislation. However, that ruling did not really matter because the Court addressed the issues in any event on the basis that it, the Court, could be incorrect.
The Judge addressed sections 92 and 99 and Regulations 6.4(2), 11.2(2) and 17.13 of the Strata Property Act, Regulations 6.4(2). Section 99 states that owners must contribute to the strata corporation their strata lots’ share of the total contributions budgeted for the operating fund and contingency reserve fund by means of strata fees calculated in accordance with s. 99 and the Regulations. The decision whether the costs to repair were included in the definition of the Operating Fund appeared to be crucial. Operating fund expenses are those expenses that usually occur either once per year or more often than once per year. On the other hand, contingency reserve expenses were expenses that occurred less often than once per year or that did not usually occur at all (s. 92).
The lawyer for the townhouse owners submitted that the costs to fix the apartment building were operating expenses. If he were successful in that argument, then by operation of Regulation 6.4(2), if a contribution to an operating fund relates to and benefits only one type of strata lot (in this case the argument was it benefits only the apartment units), and that type is identified as a different type in the bylaws of the strata corporation, then there is no need for the townhouse owners to contribute. Of course the lawyer for the apartment owners argued that the expense, for fixing the envelope, was an expense that occurred less often than once per year and hence a contingency reserve expense. Regulation 6.4(3) provides that such an expenses must be shared by all the owners. Surprisingly, at least at first blush, the court held that the cost to repair was an operating fund expense, one that occurs once per year or more often.
The reader may recall the Marco Polo v. Strata Plan LMS 1328 case that held that the cost or building envelope repair of a leaky condo could be considered an administrative expense and part of the budget rather than a special assessment, when a special resolution vote could not be obtained. Mr. Justice Skipp applied that case to the Chelsea Green situation. He held that expenses concerning interim and emergency repairs to the apartment building envelope, investigative work, design work and remedial work would continue to be incurred each year that the building was not repaired. In retrospect that can be understood because the Courts are doing their best to ensure that strata corporations are discharging their statutory duties and ensuring that minorities of owners cannot block a strata corporation from repairing building envelopes.
I am convinced that at this point in reading the Reasons, the lawyer for the townhouse owners would believe he had been successful. However, prior to his determination that the repair was an operating expense the Judge had also referred to the Royal Bank v. Holden case where Mr. Justice Bauman had referred to the condominium concept of people living together in individually owned units within a common shell. Adopting that concept, Mr. Justice Skipp found that Regulation 6.4(2) did not apply to Chelsea Green. He held that the levy to repair the apartment building envelope would relate to and benefit the townhouse strata lots as well as the apartment lots. He found that there had been a diminution in value of the townhouse units exceeding the average downturn of condo units in Langley and that the repair would affect both types of units in terms of increased saleability. On that basis, the Court held that the townhouse unit owners must pay their unit entitlement share of the repair of the apartment building envelope.
While I am still not convinced that such repair is an operating expense, there are now two Supreme Court case, neither of which has been appealed, that hold otherwise. As stated earlier, I believe the Courts have held that to ensure that the Strata Property Act obligation upon a strata corporation to repair is paramount and the courts will assist owners in discharging that obligation. On the other hand, I am convinced that Mr. Justice Skipp made the correct decision with respect to the obligation of all owners to contribute in the repair because condominium living as a community demands no less.
Regardless of my view, it is clear to me that the Courts have decided “all for one and one for all&uot; when it comes to significant repair of building shells, rather than funding routine and regular expenses such as enterphone and elevator maintenance.
One final comment. The Court addressed Regulation 17.13. It is extremely important for owners, strata councils, strata corporations and property managers to understand this Regulation. If a strata corporation has been addressing expenses on the basis of different types of strata lots as contemplated by section 128(2) of the Condominium Act (and of course all readers know that Part 5 of that Act will no longer exist after Jan. 1, 2002) and the strata corporation does not have any other particular bylaw on that issue, the ability to continue to segregate expenses on the basis of types will cease Jan. 1, 2002. The government recognized that and by Regulation 17.13 has provided that a bylaw, provided it is passed before Jan. 1, 2002, can be passed by a simple majority to reflect the segregation. If the bylaw is not passed by the strata corporation by Dec. 31, 2001 then it will no longer exist and can only be passed at a later date by the usual 3/4 majority required to amend all other bylaws. In other words, deal with it now, do not wait!

Noticed a Dip in Your Traffic This Summer? Don't Panic!
Each year during the summertime, we at CyberMark receive panicked phone calls from customers concerned about the sudden, noticeable declines in their website traffic. We check these websites, only to find that their listings haven't been affected. If your website traffic this summer isn't quite up to snuff with normal traffic levels, there's no need to fret. These kinds are lulls in traffic are completely normal during the summer as well as in December during the holiday season when vacationing takes a (temporary) toll on website traffic.
As a good deal of surfing the Internet takes place at work, the peak times for Internet usage are during the typical work week (Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.). If you notice, your weekly traffic usually drops off during nights and weekends. With more people away from their computers and on vacation in the summer than other times of the year, most website owners are bound to see less website traffic and fewer keyword searches between May and September.
While vacationing is the culprit in most summertime declines, it's still a smart idea to contact CyberMark so we can fully investigate the problem to make sure your lowered traffic isn't due to a more serious (and not likely to be just seasonal) issue than simply the lazy days of summer.
Of course, you can always combat the summertime decline by bolstering your Internet marketing efforts. Look into your current SEO strategy and see how you can increase keyword exposure. Strengthen your web presence with a social media campaign that includes profiles on Facebook and Twitter. For an almost instantaneous boost in traffic, consider pay-per-click advertising. With more marketing, you'll see an increase in traffic, as well as a higher conversion rate from the reduced amount of searches. Contact us today if you would like to add some additional marketing for your site. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12988 | {"url": "https://www.cybermark.com/noticed-a-dip-in-your-traffic-this-summer-dont-panic/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.cybermark.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:35:52Z", "digest": "sha1:RP6ZNBG6NGM3KW4L6TIYPNKHOZBFBCXL"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 1941, 1941.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 1941, 6527.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 1941, 5.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 1941, 111.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 1941, 0.97]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 1941, 317.3]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 1941, 0.42744063]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 1941, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 1941, 0.02290076]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 1941, 0.0216285]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 1941, 0.00263852]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 1941, 0.12664908]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 1941, 0.59006211]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 1941, 4.88198758]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 1941, 4.92859809]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 1941, 322.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 56, 1.0], [56, 601, 1.0], [601, 1067, 1.0], [1067, 1356, 1.0], [1356, 1941, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 56, 0.0], [56, 601, 0.0], [601, 1067, 0.0], [1067, 1356, 0.0], [1356, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 56, 10.0], [56, 601, 87.0], [601, 1067, 82.0], [1067, 1356, 51.0], [1356, 1941, 92.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 56, 0.0], [56, 601, 0.0], [601, 1067, 0.00442478], [1067, 1356, 0.0], [1356, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 56, 0.0], [56, 601, 0.0], [601, 1067, 0.0], [1067, 1356, 0.0], [1356, 1941, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 56, 0.14285714], [56, 601, 0.01284404], [601, 1067, 0.0193133], [1067, 1356, 0.01038062], [1356, 1941, 0.02051282]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 1941, 0.23537797]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 1941, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 1941, 0.02255088]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 1941, -91.5236775]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 1941, -9.84397681]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 1941, -107.03192062]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 1941, 19.0]]} |

New video footage showing the female terrorist responsible for attacking Istanbul's police headquarters on Vatan Avenue, emerged on Thursday, one day after the fatal attack. The female terrorist, who has been reported to be Elif Sultan Kalsen by several Turkish media outlets, can be seen firing at the police officers, before being gunned down herself.
On Wednesday, two terrorists attacked Istanbul's Police Headquarters with long barreled weapons, to whom the police fired back. One female assailant, who was believed to be a suicide bomber, was killed on the spot, while the other assailant fled the scene.
Two police officers are reported to be injured.
Following the attack, Istanbul Governor Vasip Şahin confirmed that two terrorists attacked the headquarters and that one of them was shot dead in exchange of fire with police and the other terrorist was injured.
The other terrorist who fled the scene after the attack was caught by the police approximately 45 minutes after the attack.
A bomb disposal team arrived on the scene after three bombs, reportedly hand grenades, were found on the body of the female terrorist who had been shot dead. A controlled explosion was conducted by the team.
Several media outlets have reported that the female terrorist is Elif Sultan Kalsen. Kalsen was earlier claimed to have conducted the suicide attack against a police outpost in Istanbul's Sultanahmet district. Although DHKP-C had initially claimed the attack and said that it was conducted by Kalsen, it was later revealed that the attack was conducted by Diana Ramazova of Russian origin with possible links the self proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and Sham (ISIS).
Kalsen was later associated with the attack on a police outpost in Istanbul's Taksim Square, however, as the female assailant had managed to escape, this claim could not be proven at the time.

Tim’s Senior Session
I love to study people as we shoot. One thing I can tell you about Tim, he has a tremendous focus and the potential to change the world. It’s there beneath the everyday, beneath the culture of high school life, just hidden from plain view. But it’s there. It’s as simple as the determination of his voice when he talks about football or wrestling. Put it to you this way, I caught one of those quirky documentaries on PBS the other night, the making of a Samari Sword, and I was intrigued, literally transfixed. Hundreds of years ago the ancients figured out how to forge two steels together. Without understanding the science of it, the old masters forged some of the most powerful swords of all time. The outer core, which is the strongest and yet the most brittle, had to be superheated and folded over onto itself time and time again. Then, at just the right moment, they’d wrap that hard steel around a softer, more bendable steel. At the atomic level, those two metals would come together to form one of the most pristine instruments the world has ever known. They were unsurpassed in sharpness and their strength was almost unmatched.
That’s what I see when I see a guy like Tim. A soul with all the raw properties for greatness. A little time, a little refining in the fire, some patience and some molding… In my humble opinion, not trying to force anything here, but I’ve seen what happens when a guy like Tim finds Christ. They set the world on fire. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12991 | {"url": "https://www.danelliottphotography.com/post/tim-s-senior-session", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.danelliottphotography.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:19:27Z", "digest": "sha1:V4KYW2C7BPEBDJJSLFNWB3Z25B2NTBB7"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 1481, 1481.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 1481, 2207.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 1481, 3.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 1481, 44.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 1481, 0.96]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 1481, 249.4]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 1481, 0.47318612]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 1481, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 1481, 0.02033898]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 1481, 0.01525424]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 1481, 0.01864407]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 1481, 0.03154574]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 1481, 0.13249211]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 1481, 0.6380597]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 1481, 4.40298507]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 1481, 0.00315457]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 1481, 4.81927953]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 1481, 268.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 21, 0.0], [21, 1163, 1.0], [1163, 1481, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 21, 0.0], [21, 1163, 0.0], [1163, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 21, 3.0], [21, 1163, 203.0], [1163, 1481, 62.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 21, 0.0], [21, 1163, 0.0], [1163, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 21, 0.0], [21, 1163, 0.0], [1163, 1481, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 21, 0.14285714], [21, 1163, 0.01838879], [1163, 1481, 0.03459119]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 1481, 0.93386489]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 1481, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 1481, 0.15373147]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 1481, 5.88912403]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 1481, 51.41721191]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 1481, -82.18504348]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 1481, 16.0]]} |

The ALPHA Network is a collaboration between 10 longitudinal population-based studies in Kenya, Malawi, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda and Zimbabwe. These studies collect data on HIV infection alongside demographic, behavioural, socio-economic and clinical data from residents of the study areas. The Network harmonises these data and conducts comparable and pooled analyses on the epidemiology and demographic impact of HIV. The results are used to improve understanding of the HIV epidemic in these communities and the wider region, and to inform policy. The Network also aims to strengthen the analytical capacity of its member organisations and to foster collaboration between them. ALPHAs Scientific Advisory Committee sets the research agenda and decides on funding applications.
ALPHA HIV Incidence and Mortality (ALPHA HIM) data collection
The datasets available here are derived from ALPHAs standardised data exchange protocols called the ALPHA data specifications. Only specifications on Residency and HIV tests were used to create the HIV incidence and mortality data. The said specifications have been transformed into two analysis-ready datasets, one for HIV incidence and one for all-cause mortality by HIV status. There are two major steps involved in generating the shared ALPHA HIM data:
1. Preparation of the ALPHA Specifications from the source data for each study. This process is described in the accompanying documentation for the shared ALPHA study data document for each of the 10 member studies.
2. Preparation of the shared incidence and mortality data from the ALPHA specifications. This is described in annotated Stata do-files which are available on request.
The data used for ALPHAs own analyses are analysis-ready datasets with a similar structure to the ALPHA shared data but with more detail, such as dates of birth and other events, and a larger set of variables than the shared data. As such, they contain potentially sensitive identifying information and are therefore unsuitable for sharing on this repository. The analysis-ready datasets provided here do not contain sensitive information and have been simplified compared to the originals, principally by removing dates of events. There will be minor differences between estimates made using these shareable data and those published estimates in ALPHA papers on the same topic.

The True Power of Virtual Machines
Some companies have been in business for so long that they are still relying on legacy applications in their operational system. This could be for many reasons, but one of the biggest is that there is simply not a better option—at least, not in their eyes.
Enter virtual machines, the solution that makes these kinds of businesses possible without severely compromising on network security.
What is a Virtual Machine?
A virtual machine is essentially a virtualized environment that acts very much like a hardware-based machine. Basically, you can use it to emulate computing systems, right down to the virtual hardware that keeps the machine running.
A virtual machine runs in a window on your computer’s operating system. So, for example, if you wanted to download a software solution or a different operating system, you could either download it to your computer or to the virtual machine.
The computer running the virtual machines is called the host, whereas the virtual machines themselves are referred to as guests.
The “hardware” of the virtual machine is stored on your host computer’s hard drive, and while the guest’s virtual hardware will not be quite as powerful as the real deal, it should be fine for handling a variety of tasks that would otherwise require a painful amount of obsolete (or potentially risky) hardware.
It’s okay if this all goes a little over your head; in its simplest terms, you can think of a virtual machine as a computer within a computer, and as such, there are various things that you can do with a virtual machine that might be difficult without one.
What Can They Do?
Believe it or not, there are several ways to use virtual machines. In our previous example, a business might use a virtual machine to host a legacy application that they simply cannot bring themselves to replace or one that is not compatible with the latest version of your operating system, but this is certainly not the only use.
Businesses might use a virtual machine to try out a new operating system or test how it runs prior to deployment. This gives businesses the confidence that the new operating system is something that will work with their current infrastructures.
Similarly, some applications work better on other platforms than others, and having the flexibility to switch between platforms empowers businesses to use whichever tools best fit their needs, regardless of current circumstances.
One particularly important note is that virtual machines give businesses secure places to test new applications that they are not comfortable with trying out on their current operating system.
The instance of the operating system is separate from the host machine and does not allow for any software or data on the virtual machine to influence the host.
If all this talk about virtual machines has you more confused than when you started, don’t worry. DataNet Pacific can help clear things up and discuss how you might apply virtual machines to your business’ infrastructure.

Seth Eastman
Painter Seth Eastman is known primarily for his depictions of daily life among the Dakota and Ojibwa tribes in Minnesota. He was born to Robert and Sarah Lee Eastman on January 24, 1808, in Brunswick, Maine. Eastman attended the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, where he received training in sketching and topography. While at West Point, he began to paint scenes featuring the daily life of local Native American tribes. In 1830 Eastman was assigned to topography duty on the frontier and spent a short time at Fort Snelling before returning to West Point to teach. While at Fort Snelling, Eastman married Wakaninajinwin (Stands Sacred), the fifteen-year-old daughter of Cloud Man, a Dakota chief. Eastman left in 1832 for another military assignment soon after the birth of their baby girl, Winona, and declared his marriage ended when he left. Winona was also known as Mary Nancy Eastman and was the mother of Charles Alexander Eastman, author of Indian Boyhood. From 1833 to 1840, Eastman taught drawing at West Point. In 1835 he married his second wife, Mary Henderson, the daughter of a West Point surgeon. In 1841 he returned to Fort Snelling as a military commander and remained there with Mary and their five children for the next seven years. It was during this time that Eastman began visually recording the everyday way of life of the Dakota and Ojibwa people. His wife Mary also became involved in preserving Indian culture by writing books on local tales and legends, which he would illustrate for her. The most important of these books was entitled Dacotah, or Life and Legends of the Sioux Around Fort Snelling. The Prairie Opposite Nauvoo, 1848. Location No. AV1988.45.277, Negative No. 21167In 1847 Henry R. Schoolcraft, a former Indian agent, was chosen to conduct a study of the American Indian people. Eastman illustrated the six-volume set, published between 1851 and 1857 as Historical and Statistical Information Respecting the History, Condition, and Prospects of the Indian Tribes of the United States. The U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Military Affairs also commissioned Eastman to paint images of seventeen important military forts, which he completed between 1870 and 1875. These paintings are now housed in the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. Eastman died of a stroke while painting at his home in Washington, D.C., on August 31, 1875. Eastman's works are significant for Minnesota history because art historians believe that Eastman based many of his paintings and sketches on his observations in the Sioux villages of Kaposia and Little Crow, as well as in Scott, Wabasha, and Winona counties.

With international stock markets comprising about 44.1 percent of the world's capitalization as of 2021, a broad range of investment opportunities exist outside the borders of the U.S.1
For investors who are looking to diversify their mutual fund portfolio with exposure to companies located outside the U.S., there exist two basic choices: A global mutual fund or an international mutual fund.2,3
By definition, international funds invest in non-U.S. markets, while global funds may invest in U.S. stocks alongside non-U.S. stocks.
The definition may seem clear, but what may seem less clear is why an investor might select one over the other.
The reason that an investor may select a global fund is to provide the portfolio manager with the latitude to move the fund's investments among non-U.S. markets and the U.S. market in order to take advantage of the shifts in relative opportunities these markets may present at any given moment.
By investing in a global fund, the challenge for the investor is that he or she may not know at any point in time their total exposure to the U.S. market within the context of their overall portfolio.
As a consequence, some investors want to manage their allocation risk by setting the broad asset allocation for their portfolio and then identifying funds that are within those asset classes. For these investors, an international fund may make more sense since it allows them to maintain a greater adherence to their desired domestic/international stock allocation.
Keep in mind that asset allocation is an approach to help manage investment risk. Asset allocation does not guarantee against investment loss.
As you consider a global or an international fund, you should also be aware of the fund's approach to the inherent currency risks. Some funds choose to engage in strategies that may mitigate the effects of currency fluctuations, while others consider currency movements – up and down – to be an element of portfolio performance.

3. International investments carry additional risks, which include differences in financial reporting standards, currency exchange rates, political risk unique to a specific country, foreign taxes and regulations, and the potential for illiquid markets. These factors may result in greater share price volatility. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12997 | {"url": "https://www.daviscapitalcorp.com/resource-center/investment/global-vs-international-whats-the-difference", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.daviscapitalcorp.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T08:47:50Z", "digest": "sha1:CSWQBDFOA32BC3L7QBE7S4XRHFCWFNBF"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 2314, 2314.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 2314, 5510.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 2314, 11.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 2314, 69.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 2314, 0.94]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 2314, 231.0]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 2314, 0.39277652]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 2314, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 2314, 0.01057641]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 2314, 0.0179799]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 2314, 0.03837472]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 2314, 0.15349887]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 2314, 0.50273224]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 2314, 5.16666667]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 2314, 4.83245689]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 2314, 366.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 186, 0.0], [186, 398, 0.0], [398, 533, 1.0], [533, 645, 1.0], [645, 940, 1.0], [940, 1141, 1.0], [1141, 1507, 1.0], [1507, 1650, 1.0], [1650, 1979, 1.0], [1979, 2001, 0.0], [2001, 2314, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 186, 0.0], [186, 398, 0.0], [398, 533, 0.0], [533, 645, 0.0], [645, 940, 0.0], [940, 1141, 0.0], [1141, 1507, 0.0], [1507, 1650, 0.0], [1650, 1979, 0.0], [1979, 2001, 0.0], [2001, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 186, 28.0], [186, 398, 33.0], [398, 533, 19.0], [533, 645, 21.0], [645, 940, 50.0], [940, 1141, 38.0], [1141, 1507, 55.0], [1507, 1650, 22.0], [1650, 1979, 55.0], [1979, 2001, 3.0], [2001, 2314, 42.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 186, 0.04444444], [186, 398, 0.0097561], [398, 533, 0.0], [533, 645, 0.0], [645, 940, 0.0], [940, 1141, 0.0], [1141, 1507, 0.0], [1507, 1650, 0.0], [1650, 1979, 0.0], [1979, 2001, 0.27777778], [2001, 2314, 0.00327869]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 186, 0.0], [186, 398, 0.0], [398, 533, 0.0], [533, 645, 0.0], [645, 940, 0.0], [940, 1141, 0.0], [1141, 1507, 0.0], [1507, 1650, 0.0], [1650, 1979, 0.0], [1979, 2001, 0.0], [2001, 2314, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 186, 0.01612903], [186, 398, 0.01886792], [398, 533, 0.05185185], [533, 645, 0.00892857], [645, 940, 0.01694915], [940, 1141, 0.01492537], [1141, 1507, 0.00546448], [1507, 1650, 0.01398601], [1650, 1979, 0.00607903], [1979, 2001, 0.04545455], [2001, 2314, 0.00638978]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 2314, 0.17047364]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 2314, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 2314, 0.13265634]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 2314, -108.06061964]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 2314, 44.78483619]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 2314, 9.95609421]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 2314, 33.0]]} |

Gregorian versus the old Julian calendar
A note to students, teachers, scholars and anyone else passionate about this topic. As stated in the front page, this website is using the Gregorian calendar as the basis for all “day of the week” computation whether or not the Gregorian calendar is relevant for the date in question (June 9, 1332). Educators should point out the primary reason why Pope Gregory XIII introduced a new calendar system in October 1582. That is, to make the computation for the annual date of Easter more accurate since it is the foundation of the Christian faith.
Even with that purpose in mind, the Gregorian calendar too will become out of sync. It has a known approximation error of about one day for every 7,700 years assuming a constant time interval between vernal equinoxes (which is not true). This is better compared to the one day for every 128 years error of the Julian calendar. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/12998 | {"url": "https://www.dayoftheweek.org/?m=June&d=9&y=1332&go=Go", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.dayoftheweek.org", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:42:25Z", "digest": "sha1:J2OWR56REHVOIUVBXKRY3GNMJKPAISF7"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 2098, 2098.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 2098, 3802.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 2098, 11.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 2098, 54.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 2098, 0.95]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 2098, 221.7]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 2098, 0.40465116]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 2098, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 2098, 0.0417412]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 2098, 0.02385212]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 2098, 0.02683363]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 2098, 0.02385212]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 2098, 0.02862254]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 2098, 0.01162791]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 2098, 0.16976744]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 2098, 0.52010724]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 2098, 4.49597855]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 2098, 4.77262272]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 2098, 373.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 30, 0.0], [30, 194, 1.0], [194, 333, 1.0], [333, 413, 1.0], [413, 588, 1.0], [588, 686, 1.0], [686, 885, 1.0], [885, 1185, 0.0], [1185, 1226, 0.0], [1226, 1772, 1.0], [1772, 2098, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 30, 0.0], [30, 194, 0.0], [194, 333, 0.0], [333, 413, 0.0], [413, 588, 0.0], [588, 686, 0.0], [686, 885, 0.0], [885, 1185, 0.0], [1185, 1226, 0.0], [1226, 1772, 0.0], [1772, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 30, 7.0], [30, 194, 33.0], [194, 333, 25.0], [333, 413, 17.0], [413, 588, 34.0], [588, 686, 16.0], [686, 885, 35.0], [885, 1185, 48.0], [1185, 1226, 6.0], [1226, 1772, 94.0], [1772, 2098, 58.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 30, 0.18518519], [30, 194, 0.09433962], [194, 333, 0.03703704], [333, 413, 0.0], [413, 588, 0.05952381], [588, 686, 0.08421053], [686, 885, 0.0], [885, 1185, 0.00692042], [1185, 1226, 0.0], [1226, 1772, 0.01685393], [1772, 2098, 0.02194357]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 30, 0.0], [30, 194, 0.0], [194, 333, 0.0], [333, 413, 0.0], [413, 588, 0.0], [588, 686, 0.0], [686, 885, 0.0], [885, 1185, 0.0], [1185, 1226, 0.0], [1226, 1772, 0.0], [1772, 2098, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 30, 0.1], [30, 194, 0.0304878], [194, 333, 0.04316547], [333, 413, 0.0375], [413, 588, 0.01714286], [588, 686, 0.04081633], [686, 885, 0.0201005], [885, 1185, 0.10333333], [1185, 1226, 0.04878049], [1226, 1772, 0.02930403], [1772, 2098, 0.01533742]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 2098, 0.44820058]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 2098, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 2098, 0.00510991]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 2098, -88.72450767]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 2098, 1.9677592]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 2098, -60.78609739]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 2098, 27.0]]} |
Bicycle Bess, the Boulevard Detective

I’ve had a lifelong love affair with bicycles. My current heartthrob is a retro Electra girl’s bike with coaster brakes and baskets on the back. The baskets are collapsible and it’s black instead of pink, but otherwise it’s very similar to the bike I had as a kid and teenager. You can probably tell from this description that I don’t use it for 20-mile cross-country treks, but just now, in early February, I’m dreaming of leisurely summer jaunts on the bike trail. As a kid, I loved the sense of mobility my bike gave me — a freedom of movement that today’s kids can’t even imagine. And when I lived in a small town as an adult, I could do many of my errands on my bike. Now that I live in suburbia, my options are more limited, but I still appreciate the altered perspective on my neighborhood offered by moving through it on two wheels instead of four.
So here I’m paying homage to Bicycle Bess, the Boulevard Detective, who made three appearances in the pages of Beadle’s Half Dime Library in the fall of 1896. Her creator, Jesse C. Cowdrick, was a prolific writer of dime novels for both Beadle’s and Street and Smith, and is perhaps best known for continuing the Deadwood Dick series after the death of Edward L. Wheeler, whom you may remember as the creator of New York Nell and Santa Fe Sal. Bicycle Bess is hardly the most prominent or flashiest girl detective to appear in this blog, but I like to think that her intelligence, professionalism, and mobility were inspirational.
Bessie Blake, a sometime partner of Scorcher Sam (presumably named for his speed on a bicycle), makes her brief debut as an undercover agent in Scorcher Sam the Detective on Wheels; or, The Sensation at Washington Heights. By the second Scorcher Sam adventure, she has been promoted into the subtitle: Scorcher Sam’s Sweep-Stakes; or, Bicycle Bess, the Boulevard Belle Detective. In the third novella, what today we would call a “spin-off” (no pun intended, honest), the roles are reversed: The Girl-Cyclist’s Winning Hand; or, Scorcher Sam’s Death-Hole Drop.
I’ve introduced Bessie as a “bicycle detective,” although that representation of her seems only to have occurred to Cowdrick after the first novella. Her main assignment as a police detective seems to involve riding her bicycle up and down the boulevard to attract mashers and then have them arrested. In the second novella, she appears on the scene when she passes Scorcher Sam on her bicycle: “It was a young woman, jauntily attired and mounted on a fine wheel, coming toward him” (Sweep-Stakes 7). When she passes him with a covert sign, the narrator tells us:
She it was, the dauntless little boulevard detective, Scorcher Sam’s ally. As she came nearer, she looked irresistably [sic] bewitching. (Sweep-Stakes 7)
Sam follows to observe her at her work. She’s stringing along a notorious boulevard masher, nicknamed “Don Quixote” or “Donkey,” who takes advantage of the opportunity she gives him to collide with her and then pretend to examine her bike for damage. When he moves in to steal a kiss, Bessie is ready for him: “she brought him a couple of stinging slaps with her gauntleted hands, first on one side of the face and then on the other” (Sweep-Stakes 8). She screams as a signal to Sam, who chases down the fleeing Donkey on his bike and arrests him, despite this acknowledgment: “Sam would have been willing to bet that Bessie herself could overtake and arrest him single-handed, had the occasion required” (Sweep-Stakes 8). Bessie vows to press charges “not on my own account, for I think I rather got the best of him, but on account of the many others he has assaulted” (Sweep-Stakes 8). In fact, the Bicycle Bess stories all focus on female victims.
Bessie’s dual nature is typical of portrayals of early girl detectives. We are often reminded of her beauty, and even more often reminded, usually by Sam himself, of her small stature. In the above scene, she “shook her dainty fists at the masher” (Sweep-Stakes 8) and Sam calls her “my little lieutenant” (Sweep-Stakes 8). In the third novella, Sam calls her “little one” (Girl-Cyclist 3) and “my brave little ally” (Girl-Cyclist 14), just as the narrator has called her “the dauntless little boulevard detective.” But like other girl detectives, Bessie has more than her dainty fists to use against bigger, stronger opponents. In Sweep-Stakes, she holds a masher at gunpoint. In Girl-Cyclist, she uses a gun, first against a bully, and then during a police raid, when she captures a second pistol and shoots the chief criminal. The sight of a beautiful young woman brandishing two pistols seems to be particularly alluring: “with flushed face and flashing eyes she made a pretty but terrible picture” (13) (one that I wish they had chosen to paint in the cover illustration, but more of that later).
Bessie’s intelligence is commented on from the start, when she’s introduced as “one of the cleverest female detectives in New York City” (Scorcher Sam 13). In the context, this appears to refer to her facility with disguise, and her undercover assignments seem to occupy her time when she’s not cruising the boulevard to attract mashers. In the first novella, Sam has used her as a spy in a household where he suspects criminal activity. In Girl-Cyclist, she takes the place of a young woman threatened with a forced marriage. When the criminals get the drop on Sam and her, she assumes the role of a weak woman:
Bess covered her face with her hands and her form shook as if with sobbing, and she did not act much like the girl who had so spunkily handled a revolver so short a time before. (12)
Yet we have already been reassured that “Bicycle Bess was clever, and was seldom at a loss” (10).
Like others in this sisterhood, she does manifest some traits considered to be feminine at the time. She is said to be “something of a tease” (Sweep-Stakes 9) and shows some pity for the masher she entraps in Sweep-Stakes. And in a curious footnote, she chides Sam for his use of slang at one point; slang is often presented as a problem in early detective fiction, perhaps because it’s considered a sign of class in a society that is anything but classless, and the Angels in the House were often entrusted with the purity of the English language.
But I’ll end where I began, with Bessie as “the queen of wheelwomen” (Sweep-Stakes 15). This reputation is confirmed when Bess identifies her partner to the intended woman victim in Girl-Cyclist, and the latter responds, “Then you must be Bicycle Bess” (6). This victim, also an accomplished wheelwoman, has apparently heard of the detective who patrols the boulevard to make it safer for women on bicycles. In fact, all three of these characters take their wheels with them when they travel on the train. So closely identified with her bicycle is Bess that Sam infers her movements from the presence or absence of her bicycle in her room at one point.
I regret, therefore, that I cannot show you a picture of Bessie with her wheel. The women who appear in the cover illustrations are all victims of crime. Sam, on the other hand, appears in all three illustrations, accompanied by his bicycle in two of them. And yes, Reader, she married him.
The novellas are available here: Scorcher Sam, the Detective on Wheels; Scorcher Sam’s Sweep-Stakes, The Girl-Cyclist’s Winning Hand.

The stairs I was standing on fell away beneath my feet, and I dropped. I grabbed for anything that could break my fall. My hands clutched at a baluster and found purchase. I was yanked to a stop and hung suspended, coughing, smoke swirling around me, the fire roaring and crackling in my ears. Under my jacket, tiny bodies shifted and tiny needles pricked my skin through my sweatshirt. A feathery tail emerged from above the zipper and tickled my chin. I couldn’t look up. Ash and debris rained down on my head and shoulders. Any second now, a live ember would get caught in the hood of my sweatshirt and we’d be swallowed up by the inferno. One of my passengers was trying to crawl inside my bra, and if tiny teeth found something they mistook for a milk fountain, we were goners.
A voice shouted at me from below. “Cat, you got to let go!” it said. “I got a couch under you to break your fall.”
I tried looking down. It wasn’t that I didn’t trust my partner, but I knew he was capable of stretching the truth if he thought it was for my own good.
But my eyes were bleary with tears and a cloud of smoke obscured everything. I coughed and clung.
Then the cloud parted and I could make out shapes — a piece of furniture, the dark figure of a man, and something small and four-footed, pacing. The mama cat, ears swiveling in my direction as if she could hear something under the roar of the fire.
Then she leapt for the enormous tapestry that hung on the wall in the stairwell, reaching from the second floor down to the first, and began climbing toward us. It was already smoldering. Now or never.
I kicked my feet out and launched myself at the wall, scrabbling at the heavy fabric. The impact sent shockwaves through my cargo and I felt them as a writhing mass just above my waistband. As I clutched at the tapestry, I felt it slowly give way. The panic-stricken mama cat, trapped between my chest and the wall, pressed against her babies but separated from them by layers of fabric, flailed and cut a scimitar slash down my cheek and neck. I coughed and clutched.
Then we slid down the wall and landed in a heap of fur and fabric. Strong arms lifted me to my feet and pulled me, my head still shrouded, trailing tapestry like a coronation train. I stumbled over something that might have been a doorsill and felt a change in the air and then the softer ground beneath my feet. Out here, there were shouts and mechanical sounds, and the rushing of water added to the cacophony of fire noises.
The fabric was pulled back and my head popped out. I felt the heat of the flames against one cheek and the cool night air against the other.
Moses tapped my shoulder, “I’m going for a paramedic.”
I nodded and sank to my knees, coughing. I fumbled for my zipper, unzipped, and released a shower of kittens. Then I collapsed fully and lay on my back, trying to fill my lungs with air. A blurry shape in my peripheral vision resembled a mama cat who was taking inventory and licking her brood with the angry intensity of a mother who’s almost lost them.
Then a new shape materialized, skinny, tailless, and human. It squatted next to me.
“You okay, M-m-miz Cat?” it said.
It continued to study me. “Wh-what that?” it said, and extended an arm.
I tried to speak and failed. I tried again. “Cat scratch,” I croaked.
“No,” it said, “n-not that. Wh-what that?”
I turned my head to follow the direction of the pointing finger, blinked to clear my vision, and looked into the blackened eye sockets of a skull.

Nita, the Female Ferret
What do you do if you report a robbery to the police and they don’t believe you? You resign yourself to becoming a detective and solving the crime yourself. That’s how 18-year-old Juanita Henriques becomes the “female ferret” in Police Captain Howard’s 1885 dime novel, Nita, the Female Ferret.
When a plainly dressed young woman presents herself at the police station to report that she has been robbed of several pieces of diamond-studded jewelry, the superintendent and one of his detectives don’t believe her, even though she makes a strong impression on them. She tells the superintendent that if she knew who the thief was, she would not have come to him; instead, she says simply, “I would have received back my property, or else killed the robber” (2). The superintendent concludes that “she is a singular young woman . . . and has the sharpest eye I ever saw in a woman’s head” (3), and sends a Detective Mason to investigate. At the house where Miss Henriques boards, the landlady tells Mason, “She impressed me as a young lady of extraordinary strength of mind and will power. She is well educated, and as deep as the ocean” (3). In fact, Nita’s past is shrouded in mystery; the residents of the house find her quiet, well bred, and rather withdrawn. Mason is the first to admit to her, “Miss, had you been born one of my sex you would have made a first-class detective” (4). The landlady chides Miss H for not confiding her suspicions to him, but she says, “It’s a detective’s business to find a clew [sic]. If I had a clew I could follow it up myself, and would do so to save the expense of employing a detective” (4); after he’s left, she declares, “My suspicions are not a clew” (4). The next day she returns to the superintendent with a set of diamond earrings and brooch that were not taken in the robbery, and when she is told that the police detective “could see nothing to show that any robbery was committed there,” she responds, “Which shows that he was not much of a detective” (5). Enter Nita, the female ferret (“ferret” was one of many slang terms for a detective).
Her first act is to don a disguise: she tells the landlady that she will be away for a while and will send a friend, Nita Endicott, to occupy her room in her absence. Nita is very like Juanita in stature, but blond rather than dark-haired, and most importantly, lively and outgoing. In no time, Nita is captivating the household with her piano playing, singing, beautiful new dresses, dazzling diamonds, and especial kindness to the maid, Margaret. This is the first of two disguises Nita uses to gather evidence. Quite early, her suspicions fall on Margaret’s lover, Tom Nelson, and she adds a second disguise as a boy so that she can tail Nelson unrecognized and follow him into saloons. As the lovely and enchanting Nita, she dazzles Nelson, goes on carriage rides with him, and permits him to make love to her. As Randy Holland, she follows Nelson and even gets the better of him in a bar confrontation.
Mastery of disguise and role-playing was an essential trait to a dime-novel detective at a time when deceit was regarded as a serious moral failing in a well-bred young lady. Yet unlike some other female detectives who regret the necessity for masquerade, Nita quite enjoys her new persona. She tells herself, “This is the best thing I ever did” (10) and even muses,
“Oh, I wish I was not afraid of betraying my sex in a fine suit of clothes. I’d go to the theaters and operas and mash the girls just for the fun. But this detective business is fun enough just now, and it grows more interesting every hour, and I like it more and more every day.” (17)
But as if concerned that this kind of declaration might risk the reader’s disapproval of Nita, Howard follows immediately with an encounter that underscores Nita’s true sex: she comes to the aid of a weeping young woman because, we’re told, “Nita had a true woman’s heart, and this unmistakable sign of distress touched her deeply” (17). The young woman, Sadie, turns out to be one of many that Tom Nelson has “married” and abandoned; “Randy” reveals her true sex to Sadie and rents some rooms for her in his new role as Sadie’s husband. In fact, however, she plays Tom Nelson’s role of “masher” the next day when a young woman flirts with him, playfully doubting his strength, and he tells her, “I can take a much heavier girl than you are and hold her on my knee, and talk to her all the evening” (20). After a night (alone) in a hotel room, she reminds herself, “Oh, I came near forgetting that I have a wife down in Twenty-second street” (20). She wasn’t the first girl detective to discover the liberating power of cross-dressing. It permits her entry into some spaces that are generally off-limits to respectable middle-class women.
Once Nita has caught the culprit and explained all to her landlady and landlord, the landlord tells her of two “mistakes”: “First, that you were not born a man, that you might have been the greatest detective in the world” and “Second, that being born a woman, you did not go on the stage and become known as the greatest actress that ever lived” (27). The second compliment is sincere, but perhaps unintentionally backhanded, since actresses were considered of dubious moral standing at the time. Indeed, the liberties she permits Tom Nelson — embraces, kisses — are justified, but perhaps not justifiable, by the role she’s playing, and after reminding readers what’s at stake, the narrator observes: “The reader can readily understand then, the extraordinary will-power of our heroine, which enabled her to smile when Nelson kissed her in the carriage” (10). Indeed, Nita’s “will power,” mentioned here and in the previous quotation, set her apart from the feminine ideal, as does her willingness to spend time in cheap dives among disreputable company, where:
The men and women talked with a freedom of expression that made our heroine wish herself a thousand miles away.
But she stood it for the sake of her mission. (15)
As you might guess by now if you have been following this blog, Nita doesn’t rely solely on her acting skills and men’s clothing to keep her safe in dangerous places and situations. Her small pearl-handled revolver makes its first appearance in a wonderfully comic scene in a restaurant, where Tom Nelson picks a fight with Randy Holland for — wait for it — wearing his hat at the table. Insisting on his status as a gentleman, Tom menaces the offending Holland until s/he calmly draws “a tiny revolver” and aims it at him. Confident of his own shrewdness, Tom offers her ten dollars to relinquish the gun to a waiter, and when she takes him up on it and collects her cash, he springs at her again, only to be repulsed this time by “a long bright bladed dagger” (11). Slow on the uptake, Tom offers another ten dollars if she’ll relinquish the dagger, and when she does, the inevitable ensues: Tom lunges for her, only to be brought up short by “a tiny pearl-handled revolver” (12). Clearly, Nita is armed to the teeth. Later, Randy tells a gang of would-be assailants, “The man who comes up to pick a fight with me will get both steel and lead” (16), and she proves it by shooting their leader. Like other girl detectives, however, Nita also demonstrates that she has the physical prowess for the job when she pursues the escaping Tom across roof-tops, at one point leaping ten feet down from one rooftop to the next.
Nita’s “masculine” traits and abilities contrast sharply with the those of the other women characters in the story. Tom’s two female victims, Margaret and Sadie, are characterized by their tears, whereas we never see Nita cry. Both women are blinded by their love for Tom. Margaret refuses to heed Nita’s warnings about him up to the point when Nita reveals the other wife she has met. Then Margaret becomes a picture of female vengeance: “True, she thought of Tom, but only how she might avenge herself” (21). In the cheap dive mentioned above, two gin-soaked women engage in a catfight motivated by jealousy over Randy Holland. When Nita pursues Tom across rooftops later, he enters a house through a window and terrifies the women inside, who, after “raising a terrible racket,” demonstrate their panicked incompetence by running “screaming from room to room in the house, locking the doors to protect themselves, but in reality preventing him from getting out” (25). It’s difficult to see how Nita developed her strong will, her sangfroid, her intelligence, and her adventurous spirit if these were the kinds of female role models available to her. We know little about her background, except that she, like so many other girl detectives, is an orphan.
The ending of the novel is something of a disappointment, if perhaps an inevitability. Nita’s celebrity in the press makes her the talk of the town, especially after she testifies in court to the incompetence of the police, and she’s confronted by an importunate millionaire banker who wants her to investigate bank thefts and won’t take no for an answer. She cracks the case in very short order because she visualizes the theft in a dream! Delighted, the banker gives her a blank check in payment for her services, and when she threatens to take the whole bank, he insists that the banker himself would have to be included. Later, when she next shows him the check, she has filled in the amount to read “the banker himself” (29), thus strengthening our impression of Nita as a young woman who knows what she wants and goes after it. They are married immediately and live happily ever after, especially when the papers she has recovered along with her stolen jewels prove her claim to an English fortune that doubles her husband’s. So her unconventional story ends in a conventional way, and we are left to consider that it is, perhaps, just as well, since a professional detective could hardly rely on visionary dreams to solve the average case.
I’ve been unable to locate an online version of this text. According to The Dime Novel Bibliography published by the Edward T. LeBlanc Memorial Library, “Police Captain Howard” was a “pseudonym used by multiple people.”
Mercedes Quero: Elusive Yet Ubiquitous
February 28, 2022 By D.B. Borton 2 Comments
A queer fish indeed is Mercedes Quero, who shows up when she’s least expected and most wanted. She appeared in four novels by Gladys Edson Locke, who wrote as G. E. Locke: That Affair at Portstead Manor (1914), The Red Cavalier, or, The Twin Turrets Mystery (1922), The Scarlet Macaw (1923), and The House on the Downs (1925). Though Locke lived all her life in the Boston area, these novels are all British country house mysteries. They usually feature an unmarried male focal character, whom Bob Schneider of SpeedyMysteries.com compares to Captain Hastings of the Hercule Poirot mysteries.
Quero is a detective of considerable reputation, in spite of her gender. When a diamond necklace is stolen in Portstead Manor, a character says, “I should send for that woman detective, Mercedes Quero. All London is talking about her since the Dexter case,” to which Lord Portstead responds, “Women are not at all suited to detective work. They are illogical and carried away by sentiment.” In Red Cavalier, a character notes that she is “highly successful in her profession.” In The Scarlet Macaw, she’s described as “the celebrated woman detective whose fame was known throughout England and even on the Continent.” Of course, her nemesis Detective Burton has a different view of her, and calls her “the most devilish, provoking and meddlesome skirt that ever was wished on a man.”
We’re never told Quero’s age, only that she is young. But her background is typical for professional women detectives; in Portstead Manor, the male character who befriends her learns something of her history: “Born and bred a gentlewoman, a sudden turn of fortune had thrown her upon her own resources.” She is often described as attractive, as from the point of view of another male character in Red Cavalier: “This slim, girlishly pretty young woman with mirthful brown eyes, skin fair as a child’s and soft brown hair simply coiled in her neck was not at all his idea of the detective who had already won an enviable name in her chosen profession.” In fact, Quero’s eyes are frequently characterized as “mirthful” or “mischievous” or “mocking,” and they appear to express most particularly her opinion of the men who surround her. She is capable of gentleness toward vulnerable women, and her mirthful eyes turn “misty” with sentimentality as she watches one man’s gentleness with a crippled little girl. But these are rare moments. She does not suffer fools gladly, especially men, or challenges to her authority, telling one man, “Don’t be stupid!” and admonishing Detective Burton at one point, “You will be good enough to remember that I am conducting this inquiry.”
As for the qualities that ensure her success as a detective, she is called “devilish smart.” And when one male character, who has commented on “the paradox of a pretty woman and a logical combined,” calls her “jolly clever,” she responds, “It is my business to be ‘jolly clever.’” A woman character made rather uncomfortable by Quero’s “very unusual pursuit” calls her “quick and intuitive,” as if to reclaim her for the female gender by privileging intuition over logic. And there is something to this claim, since she has a habit of showing up on the scene under an assumed name, and sometimes, as in Red Cavalier, even before she has been sent for. In this case, like Sherlock Holmes, she has read about the case and taken an interest. In all of these cases, Quero first appears in the guise of a secretary or maid, so that the experienced reader begins to look for her in the background long before she takes center stage. These impersonations permit her to spy on the principals in the case, a most unladylike thing to do.
While she is not the most athletic of girl detectives, she is perfectly capable of subduing an angry woman wielding a knife (Scarlet Macaw) and carries a small revolver that she uses to shoot a fleeing suspect (Red Cavalier).
Only in the first book, Portstead Manor, are we given a glimpse of the drawbacks of Quero’s career. When one character tells her, “I cannot understand you,” she replies, “No one does. I am a very much misunderstood person.” At the end of the book, the narrator mentions her lonely life, and speculates on the value of her continued friendship with the focal male character, for which she was “probably grateful.”
Locke herself seems to have been an interesting figure, with multiple degrees from Boston University and Simmons College, as reported by Douglas A. Anderson in his blog on Lesser-Known Writers. She was sufficiently proficient in Latin, French, and Italian to tutor in these languages and taught high school Latin and English. She was a member of the Boston Society for Psychical Research and never married.
The books have garnered mixed reviews. Anderson cites a review by the New York Times of Mr. Locke’s The Scarlet Macaw that damns it with faint praise, calling it an “interesting mystery” delivered in “extremely mediocre prose.” The plots are intricate and convoluted, and in the last book, The House on the Downs, almost every character is using an assumed name (the names themselves are worth mentioning: Sir Quenton Rotherdene, Theophilus Elphic, Bannard Darrel, Wallington Melrose, Paul Wardle). Should you decide to go looking for the Quero books, be warned: they have recently been reprinted in dreadful editions by the Hard Press of Miami. These appear to have been scanned and published uncorrected, with Quero’s name spelled in a variety of ways, most frequently as “Queer.”
Cad Metti: The Female Detective Strategist
December 13, 2021 By D.B. Borton Leave a Comment
Here’s a girl detective that has outlasted Nancy Drew, even if she’s never had Nancy’s star power. I counted nine editions on AbeBooks alone (not including the edition I own) and you can read about her exploits online for free. The original edition, as far as I can tell, is Cad Metti, The Female Detective Strategist; or, Dudie Dunne Again in the Field, published in 1895 in the dime novel series Old Sleuth’s Own (no. 37). The author is identified as Old Sleuth, “Author of all the Famous ‘Old Sleuth’ Stories.” “Old Sleuth” was a pen name adopted by Harlan Page Halsey. But “Old Sleuth” was, like the “Carolyn Keene” of the Nancy Drew books, a pen name used by other authors within the Old Sleuth dime novel empire, as well as the name of the fictional protagonist of many of the stories. (In his 1982 book, The Dime Novel Detective, Gary Hoppenstand identifies this character as “the first serialized detective character” and the prototype for what he calls the “Avenger Detective.”) There are several female detectives attributed to Old Sleuth; in fact, Roberts, Hoppenstand, and Browne have published a collection entitled Old Sleuth’s Freaky Female Detectives (1990). That this collection does not include Cad Metti suggests how many examples they had to choose from.
Oscar “Dudie” Dunne had been introduced in a previous novel (no. 29 in the series) as an ace detective with a remarkable facility for disguise. In Cad Metti, he has acquired a female trainee, “one of the brightest women that ever entered the profession: she is a born detective.” We are not told Cad’s age, only that Dudie is young and in the opening scene, they are described as “a young lady and gentleman,” though they are in disguise. Dudie describes himself as “her instructor.”
Gender-bending, as we’d term it now, is clearly part of the sensational appeal of the story. Dudie himself is “a young man of singularly effeminate appearance, with muscles like whipcord and powers of endurance that were seemingly tireless. He was not only a great athlete but a wonderful boxer, and it was a favorite role with him to assume the character of a dude.” As for Cad, according to Dudie,
She could make her living on the stage as a marvel. She is a great musical genius. She can sing or dance, she can fence or wrestle like a man. Her strength is extraordinary, and as a pistol shot she is the champion woman of the world; and when it comes to quickness, nerve, cunning, and courage she cannot be excelled.
Indeed, the impersonation they’re enacting in the opening scene is intended to draw the attention of ruffians and provoke an attack — a common strategy for the two detectives. As Cad says, “it is a great thing to meet an antagonist who really underrates you.” Once the two are accosted by the criminals they are trawling for, a rare editorial comment assures the reader that the two are playing a dangerous game: “We desire to call our readers’ attention to the courage and nerve of both the detectives in daring for one moment to think of meeting those three great burly men.” When the attack comes, the two detectives draw their concealed billy clubs and counterattack: “Cad meantime played a single-note tattoo on the head of number two.” When the dust settles, one of the ruffians laments, “It was the gal gave me my rap and she came down on me with the force of a Goliah.” Yet Cad has a softer side, for we’re told that she’s a mother, since she has “rescued and adopted two Italian children from the street.” She joins the ranks of female detectives with adopted children apparently intended to reassure readers of their femininity; we never hear about the children again.
As the senior detective (and the one presumed to have established fans among the Old Sleuth readership), Dudie Dunne is the star of the narrative and the story follows his actions and thoughts. But this strategy heightens the mystery of his female partner, who often turns up unexpectedly, especially when Dudie is in trouble. And Dudie is often in trouble as the two track a large gang of counterfeiters, since several government detectives on the gang’s trail have already disappeared or been assassinated. It is Cad whose spying saves Dudie when he is taken in by a beautiful woman’s appeal for help. In the guise of a messenger boy, Cad has overheard the woman scheming with the head of the gang to lure him to his death, and Dudie, who in spite of being warned that the gang has female members, has declared, “I’ll bet my life on her sincerity,” is forced to eat his words. In another scene, when Dudie is being menaced by members of the gang and forced into a duel, a “boyish-looking youth” magically appears to serve as his second. This is Cad, of course, and she’s had the foresight to recruit three men who “were Jim terrors right on their looks” to back her.
The narrator emphasizes that Cad’s chief advantage as a detective is her skill at disguise and her consequent ability to spy on criminals. At one point, she is described as “the strange, weird girl, who could flit from place to place like a shadow, who could change her appearances as readily as a change actress on the stage.” At one point, even Dudie doesn’t recognize her in disguise as a messenger boy, and praises her as “the wonder of the age.” Historians of gender will note that while the story reinforces the particular reprehensiveness of female deceit, it is Cad’s ability to out-deceive the master criminal deceiver that makes her its hero.
There is no strong suggestion of romance between the partners, who call each other “brother” and “sis.” But when Cad dismisses Dudie’s “lovely lady” as “the beautiful siren who is to lure Ulysses into the den where he is to be slain with merciless precision and cold-blooded exactness,” he suspects her motives:
Seeing the glitter in Cad’s eyes he fell to a conclusion and asked:
“Is my beautiful partner jealous?”
Cad responds, “Yes, I am jealous for your life.” Whether the author intended to prepare the way for future romance, or whether he intended only to provide further evidence of Dudie’s inability to read women, I can’t say, since as far as I know, the pair never appeared together again. (I’m happy to be corrected by a more knowledgeable reader.)
Oddly enough, Cad exits the story before its climax. When Dudie’s villainous female antagonist gives the order to shoot him and the police burst into the room, Cad is nowhere to be seen — unless she is disguised as one of the men with repeating rifles who crowd the room. Has the author abandoned her when she’s served her purpose or is he guarding her secret? We can hope for the latter explanation, but the dime novels aren’t known for their subtlety.
Cad Metti, the Female Detective Strategist is widely available in multiple additions.

What is a Defensive Drivers Course & Why Take It?
Defensive Driving is driving in a manner that utilizes safe driving strategies to enable drivers to address identified hazards in a predictable manner. When you take a defensive driving classes you learn to improve your driving skills by reducing your driving risks by anticipating situations and making safe well-informed decisions.
The benefits of taking a defensive driving class vary with each state,in New York they include a reduction of points on your driver’s license following a ticket and the assurance that insurance rates will not increase also a reduction of up to 10% in your insurance rates.
Our class is a 6 hr class taught by our trained instructors in various locations or our online class that can be completed within 30 days.
Some of the basic topics covered in the class are:
Traffic Crashes
Losses from traffic crashes have both social and personal impacts. Approximately 41,000 die annually as a result of traffic collisions, with an additional 3,236,000 injuries. About 38% of all fatal car crashes are alcohol related with another 30% attributed to speeding.
The goal of good defensive driving is to reduce the risk of these accidents by properly educating students to exercise caution and good judgment while driving.
On the roadways, drivers have to deal with several factors that can affect their driving. Though some of them are beyond the control of the driver, psychological factors can be controlled by the driver if he knows what to look for and how to handle it.
Human Factors – DUI
Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol continues to impact thousands of American drivers each year. While the specific effect of each drug on your body takes place in differing stages, the effect of drivers operating a vehicle while under the influence is disastrous.
A very common component of all defensive driving courses is education about the role that drugs and alcohol play on America’s roadways.

Rita Morris MA, LPC, NCC, SCL
Hi, I'm Rita and I am passionate about counseling and helping clients overcome any obstacle they see as a barrier to achieving stable mental health, and social and physical well-being. As a Christian counselor I will utilize a variety of theoretical approaches, according to each individual client's presenting needs, and Godly wisdom, to help support you in finding a path to your own personal success. My focus is on issues such as grief and loss, trauma, parent/child relationships, substance use, life transitions, and couples and family. As a former teacher I have over 10 years experience working with children on issues such as bullying, parental separation or divorce, peer relations, emotion regulation, and academic concerns.
I hold a Bachelors degree in Elementary Education and a Masters in School Counseling (SCL). I am a fully Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) as well as a National Board Certified Counselor (NCC). I am fully committed to advocating for clients who are facing setbacks, as I believe that everyone, if given the proper guidance, can overcome any obstacle they see as a barrier to achieving academic success, stable mental health, or social and physical well-being.

Benefits of All-on-4 Dental Implants
The all-on-4 dental implants feel just like natural teeth and are a state-of-the-art solution for missing or decayed teeth. The statistics given by the American Academy of Implant Dentistry show that around 3 million people have a dental implant in the US. This figure is still rising, with roughly 500,000 implants every year. There are numerous benefits of these modern dental implants. The notable ones are listed below:
Enhances quality of life
Good oral health is a prerequisite for maintaining overall health. It helps prevent tooth decay and gum diseases that might otherwise cause serious infections. Crooked, diseased, or missing teeth can interrupt your speech and make chewing quite tricky or painful. Thanks to modern dental technology, we have an all-on-4 dental implants procedure that readily fills empty spaces with just four implants. These dental implants help achieve a good quality of life, and you feel younger, happier and eat or speak with confidence.
Improves the appearance of teeth
People who lose their teeth are usually embarrassed while speaking with the public as the appearance of their teeth is severely disrupted. The all-on-4 dental implants decrease the wrinkles caused by missing teeth and help to preserve the jawbone. They also aid in maintaining your original facial structure, which otherwise deteriorates because of missing teeth, and improves the appearance of teeth.
It offers a permanent and quick solution
These implants offer a permanent solution to your teeth to last throughout your life. They are non-removable and offer you incredible convenience. You get immediate results as this method quickly aids you in restoring your teeth. Moreover, it aids you in proper chewing, and you can enjoy every food that you like.
Eliminates health issues associated with missing or failing teeth
The all-on-4 implants help create a healthier mouth by reducing the risk of periodontal disease, which otherwise gives rise to a variety of diseases and conditions, namely; heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, and other chronic diseases. The all-on-4 dental implants can be easily cared for. With daily brushing and flossing, and regular dental visits, your new teeth can stay healthy and clean for at least two decades.
Prevents bone loss and degradation
One of the notable disadvantages of losing your teeth is the degradation of the jaw bone, which aids in chewing and maintains your facial structure. The all-on-4 implants help minimize this effect and restore bone loss and degradation. The implants are fixed in the jawbone and act the same way as natural teeth do.
From saving time to offering a permanent teeth solution, the all-on-4 dental implants have several benefits. If you are missing your teeth or have severe teeth deterioration, visit your dentist right away. He will examine your oral health in the first place and might recommend modern dental implants to restore your teeth for their optimal performance.

Get Your Server Management
Server management is a fundamental requirement for businesses, as it ensures the security, reliability, and performance of a company’s IT infrastructure. DEVMET’s server management services allows businesses to reliably store, access, and protect data, while boosting efficiency, scalability, and cost-effectiveness.
Server management is critical to ensuring the security of a business’s digital assets and operations. Without effective management, hackers may be able to compromise a company’s private data or even gain control of the server itself, exposing the company to financial losses and irreparable damage to its reputation. Server management helps ensure that businesses have the necessary software updates and systems in place to protect against hacker attacks, malware, and other cyber threats.
Our server management services are essential for businesses that rely on mission-critical applications. If a server fails, those apps may be inaccessible, leading to costly downtime and customer frustration. Through effective server management, businesses can routinely monitor server performance and address potential problems before they become critical. This ensures that applications are both accessible and secure, enhancing customer experience while protecting the data they store.
In addition, our server management services enables businesses to benefit from scalability. By continuously monitoring and planning servers, businesses are better prepared to handle short-term and long-term changes in demand and adjust their servers accordingly. This helps companies both save money on resources they don’t need and leverage resources they do need, allowing them to focus valuable funds and personnel elsewhere.
Finally, our effective server management leads to cost savings in the long run. By managing servers effectively, businesses reduce the frequency of downtime, improve user experience, and ensure optimal resource utilization. This saves time and money that could have been spent on IT staff and unplanned maintenance, allowing companies to remain competitive in a crowded market.
In conclusion, DEVMET’s server management service is necessary for businesses to remain secure, reliable, and cost-effective. With proper server management, businesses can protect their digital assets from cyber threats, maximize application performance, scale up or down as needed, and save money in the long run. As such, server management should be an essential part of any company’s IT strategy.
DEVMET’s Server management solutions are a set of tools responsible for the efficient performance and management of servers. Our these tools enable organizations to manage and control their server infrastructure more effectively and reliably. They include a wide range of technologies and services which help with server performance monitoring, system maintenance, and security protocols. Server management solutions can range from basic to advanced, depending on the complexity and scope of the requirements.
One of the most common types of our server management solutions is remote server management. Remote server management allows organizations to use a service provider to manage their servers without having to purchase, install and maintain the server hardware and software themselves. This type of solution can be beneficial when organizations have limited resources, or need to quickly respond to changing requirements. Organizations will usually have access to a web-based interface which provides remote access to the server infrastructure. Through this interface, organizations can input or retrieve data, configure settings and perform other server management tasks.
Another type of our server management solution is automation. Automation is used extensively in server management and enables organizations to streamline their processes, making them more efficient and saving time. Automation works by programming the server to respond to certain events and take pre-configured actions. For example, if an application crashes, the server can be programmed to automatically restart the application on an alternate server and inform the user of the incident. Automated server management provides a higher level of security, as well as improved reliability, accuracy and scalability.
Finally, there is cloud server management. Our cloud server management service is a type of server management solution that uses multiple distributed virtual machines to eliminate the need for costly and time-consuming hardware and software installation and maintenance. Many organizations are turning to this solution for its enhanced security, cost-effectiveness and scalability. With cloud server management, organizations can easily expand their server infrastructure and quickly migrate applications and data to new servers.
DEVMET’s server management solutions can provide a wide range of benefits to organizations. By leveraging the right solution, they can save time, money and resources while improving the security and reliability of their server infrastructure.
DEVMET’s Server management is an essential part of running a successful online business. It is the process of managing the setup, maintenance, and security of a server to ensure that a business can function with maximum efficiency. Proper server management is essential in order to keep a system running smoothly, maintain security, and save money on costs and fees.
The costs associated with our server management service typically involve hosting and software fees. Hosting fees refer to the costs associated with keeping a server online and storing files and data. Depending on the size and complexity of the server, these fees can range from several dollars a month to thousands a year. Software fees refer to the costs associated with buying and maintaining the software needed to run the server. These vary greatly depending on what components the server needs, and can range from free to hundreds of dollars. Additionally, server management may involve costs for hiring technical staff for installation and upkeep, such as consultants and systems administrators.
Maintaining a server also involves a variety of fees for upkeep. These include the fees for maintenance and repairs, such as for hardware or software upgrades. Additionally, there are fees associated with security monitoring and protection, such as for firewalls and antivirus software. Finally, there are fees associated with monitoring system performance, including bandwidth and disk usage.
Although the upfront costs of server management may be high, properly managing a server can save money in the long run. Proper maintenance can reduce downtime, ensuring that the server continues to run smoothly and with minimal downtime. Additionally, having comprehensive security measures in place means that the system is less vulnerable to data breaches and other malicious attacks, saving the company money in the form of repair and replacement costs. Finally, having reliable monitoring systems in place helps to ensure that the server is running at peak efficiency, reducing both energy costs and the risk of unexpected downtime.
In conclusion, DEVMET’s server management is essential for keeping an online business running smoothly and securely. Although there are initial costs for hosting and software. Get in touch with us to have a well-managed server that can save money in the long run due to reduced downtime and energy costs, as well as improved security that minimizes the risks of data breaches and replacement costs.

Court Rules Aetna Cannot Collect SSDI Overpayment
Posted in Aetna, Disability Insurance Cases Nationwide
We have written on this subject before and the issue is one we get many questions on. Whether a disability insurance claimant must repay the insurance company for a retroactive social security award depends on the policy at issue and any subsequent agreements between the claimant and insurance company. Unfortunately, most ERISA governed long-term disability policies contain language giving the insurance company the right to recover any award of back benefits made by the Social Security Administration. Insurance companies often take it a step further by requiring claimants to sign “reimbursement agreements” by which the claimant promises to pay back any award of SSDI benefits that would result in an overpayment by the insurance company.
In a recent case out of California, a federal court ruled that the Aetna could not collect an SSDI overpayment.
History of Ms. Wong’s LTD Claim
Ms. Wong was a Regional Facility Manager at the Hobart West Group when she began suffering from back, leg, and groin pain as a result of complications from her pregnancy. In March 2006, Aetna granted Ms. Wong benefits under her employer sponsored LTD Plan.
Throughout Ms. Wong’s claim Aetna denied and subsequently reinstated Ms. Wong’s benefits on two separate occasions. In December 2010, Aetna denied Ms. Wong’s claim for the third time prompting Ms. Wong to submit an appeal, which she submitted on May 24, 2011 and which Aetna subsequently denied on September 22, 2011.
While on claim with Aetna, Ms. Wong had been advised by Aetna to apply for Social Security disability benefits. On October 21, 2011, the SSA approved Ms. Wong’s claim and granted her an award dating back to April 1, 2010. Naturally, within a month of Ms. Wong’s receipt of her award, Aetna sent a letter to Ms. Wong asserting that “it was entitled to reimbursement for the retroactive benefits granted by the SSA in the amount of $12,402”.
Litigation Ensues
Ms. Wong instituted an action in federal court in December 2012 seeking benefits owed to her. Aetna responded with a counterclaim seeking Ms. Wong’s retroactively awarded social security benefits.
In reviewing the claim, the court concluded that Aetna had abused its discretion in denying Ms. Wong’s claim. In evaluating Aetna’s counterclaim, the court explained that there are “at least three criteria” that must be satisfied for Aetna to secure its claim to the overpayment.
First, there must be a promise by the beneficiary to reimburse the fiduciary for benefits paid under the plan in the event of a recovery from a third party.
Second, the reimbursement agreement must “specifically identify a particular fund, distinct from the beneficiary’s general assets, from which the fiduciary will be reimbursed”.
Third, the funds specifically identified by the fiduciary must be within the possession and control of the beneficiary.
As is often the case, the first criterion was clearly satisfied, as the LTD policy or a signed reimbursement agreement would be sufficient. Ms. Wong did not dispute that she contracted to reimburse Aetna for overpayment of LTD benefits stemming from her receiving benefits from other sources, including the SSA.
However, the second element failed. As the court explained, the Social Security Act prohibits attachment of Social Security disability benefits. Although Aetna attempted to identify the particular fund as the plan benefits overpaid to Wong the court quoted the Social Security Act, which provides:
“[N]one of the moneys paid or payable or rights existing under this [Social Security] subchapter shall be subject to execution, levy, attachment, garnishment, or other legal process.”
As such, and because Ms. Wong’s benefits had already been paid out, Aetna could not identify the benefits themselves as a particular fund, and the Plan did not identify a fund distinct from Ms. Wong’s general assets that would permit the attachment of her Social Security disability payments.
Furthermore, Ms. Wong argued, and Aetna did not dispute, that Ms. Wong had already spent the overpaid benefits.
The court’s decision should not be taken to mean that a claimant does not have to repay the insurance company for overpayments resulting from money received from the SSA or other deductible sources of income. Other courts have ruled differently and whether a claimant must repay the insurance company requires an analysis of all the surrounding circumstances including the policy at issue and any signed reimbursement agreement.

Carolyn Hax: Put son before boyfriend
Dear Carolyn: I am a 33-year-old single mom with an 8-year-old son. I have sole custody of my son, but by state law I cannot move more than 60 miles away from my son’s father.
I’ve been in a wonderful four-year relationship, but he lives 360 miles away. We were together for a year before he was offered a great job and moved away. We have made our relationship work for three years while holding out hope that my son’s father will allow me to move someday.
Well, I’m afraid someday is never coming. Legally unable to move, I asked my boyfriend to consider moving back. He is unwilling to quit his job or even look for a good job here. We are crazy in love with each other and want nothing more than to be married and spend the rest of our lives together. But I can’t live my life in a never-ending long-distance relationship, and I would like more children.
Where should I go from here? If he really loves me, shouldn’t he be willing to quit his job and move? Do I break up with him so maybe he will realize what he lost and come running back to me? Do I stick it out and wait for a miracle? — Never-Ending Long Distance
Dear Never-Ending: If you really loved him and wanted to be at his side, shouldn’t you be willing to tear your son a six-hour drive away from his father? And to face the legal consequences thereof?
Yes, I’m kidding, in a not-at-all-funny kind of way.
You can chase your tail for another three years just trying to figure out whether one can both be “crazy in love” and prioritize one’s job, so I suggest sticking with the obvious and the quantifiable: You are not moving for the 10 years it takes your son to reach his 18th birthday; and the person in this relationship who can move sooner has chosen not to.
So, how long do you want to be in this long-distance relationship? Another decade, another year, not another day? That is your decision right now, in its entirety: How long do you want to do this? The rest is just tying yourself into so many optional knots.
Whatever you do, though, don’t break up with him “so maybe he will” anything, reducing your life to a get-the-guy version of “Mouse Trap” (Lifelong Resentment Edition). Make choices that meet your needs, period. He can then make his.
Dear Carolyn: My husband loves his parents and sister but makes no effort to see them (we live in Virginia, they are in Florida). His excuses not to visit are pretty weak, like too much work, too little money, or his fear of flying, for which he has medication. I feel he is being selfish and, after nearly 30 years of marriage, I know he will regret this after Dad and Mom are gone. Should I just get over it? — Upset
Dear Upset: Yes. Ultimately it’s his job, not yours, to preempt his guilt.
Before you reach this resignation point, though, I hope you do call him out. Bluntly: “You’re making weak excuses again.” And, volunteer to plan a trip: “How’s the week after Christmas, by car?” I.e., drag the horse right to the water’s edge.

Federal stimulus funds expected to reach Nevada arts groups
Proposed $2 trillion package includes $25 million for arts, some of which will be distributed to states
Kris Vagner on March 27, 2020
As part of the federal government’s $2 trillion stimulus package—passed by the Senate on March 25 and, as of this afternoon, still awaiting a vote by the House—$75 million is expected to be allocated to the National Endowment for the Arts and $75 million to the National Endowment for Humanities. A portion of this funding is slated to be distributed to Nevada’s arts community.
The National Endowment for the Arts is required to distribute 40 percent of its stimulus funding to state arts agencies, according to Tony Manfredi, Executive Director of the Nevada Arts Council. The exact amount that Nevada will receive has not yet been determined. Allocations for each state will be based on several factors, one of which is population. (According to 2019 census estimates, Nevada is the 33rd most populous state, with slightly more than 3 million residents.)

“The nation’s arts and culture industry is experiencing devastating economic losses with closed venues and cancelled performances, exhibitions, and events as a result of the pandemic,” read a March 26 email newsletter from Americans for the Arts, a national nonprofit. Manfredi mentioned that in addition to lost ticket revenues, institutions such as theaters and museums have encountered unintended expenses such as special cleaning procedures.
“We’ll be able to distribute emergency relief for artists,” Manfredi said. Details about how artists and organizations can apply for and receive funds have not yet been determined. For updates, follow the and check the NAC’s “Response to COVID-19” page and the agency’s Facebook page and Twitter feed.
Manfredi added that Congress will waive two standard requirements in order to fast-track the process of disbursing funds. The NAC will not be required to come up with matching funds as usual. And grants will not need to be project-specific. In other words, funds will be allowed to go toward general operating expenses for arts orgs, as opposed to, for example, being tied to a specific exhibition or performance.
The NAC has also taken some if its own measures to help artists through this time of economic stress, including pushing back deadlines for its next grant cycle.
Nevada Humanities has also pushed back its grant deadline from April 10 to June 10.
Nevada’s arts and culture budget is “heavily reliant on tourism and live entertainment tax and general funds,” Manfredi said. All of those have been—and will continue to be—impacted by setbacks to the travel industry.
We’re waiting to see how we can serve the arts and culture industry the best we can,” Manfredi said.
Emergency federal arts funding
The following amounts are expected to be allocated to arts organizations as part of the $2 trillion federal stimulus package:
$75 million: National Endowment for the Arts
$75 million: National Endowment for the Humanities
$75 million: Corporation for Public Broadcasting
$50 million: Institute of Library and Museum Sciences
$25 million Kennedy Center
$7.5 million for the Smithsonian

Kris..Thanks for the update on this. Karen (www.dtrpottery.com) has lost three, possibly four classes that she teaches at the Museum of Art and another teaching opportunity at Montesori. Plus one show (Honey and Lavender) has been cancelled. Any clue when we know what hoops she will have to jump through for this relief? Thanks again.
Kris Vagner April 1, 2020 at 7:07 pm
Don and Karen, the Nevada Arts Council is awaiting more information about how and when they’ll receive funds. I’ll update the community as soon as I know anything. Meanwhile, Sierra Arts is offering up to $250 in relief for any Washoe County artist who’s had events canceled and a sudden income drop. I’ll post more details about that today. The application process is very simple, and the turnaround time for disbursement is pretty quick. More here: https://sierraarts.org/event/washoe-county-artist-relief-fund-covid-19/

The Premium Tax Credit: Do You Qualify?
admin taxing_subjects Monday, March 30, 2015
April 15 is just around the corner, but there is still time to make sure clients have submitted the proper forms to secure the credits they are due. The IRS recently published a tax tip checklist to help taxpayers determine if they are eligible to receive the Premium Tax Credit (PTC). If a client – or one of their family members – purchased health insurance from a Marketplace, they need to file a Form 8962 to see if they qualify.
The following are the prerequisites provided by the IRS:
For at least one month of the year, all of the following were true:
An individual in your tax family was enrolled in a qualified health plan offered through the Marketplace.
The individual was not eligible for minimum essential coverage, other than coverage in the individual market.
The portion of the enrollment premiums for the month for which you are responsible was paid by the due date of your tax return.
To be an applicable taxpayer, you must meet all of the following requirements:
For 2014, your household income is at least 100 percent but no more than 400 percent of the Federal poverty line for your family size.
No one can claim you as a dependent on a tax return for 2014.
If you were married at the end of 2014, you must generally file a joint return. However, filing a separate return from your spouse will not disqualify you from being an applicable taxpayer if you meet certain requirements.

Brazilian Butt Lift Safety in 2021
March 12, 2023 /in Brazilian Butt Lift /by Dr. Matthew Schulman
Brazilian butt lift represent one of the most popular cosmetic procedures today. The number of people requesting this procedure, commonly known as a BBL, has been increasing year after year for the past several years.
The procedure involves removing fat via liposuction from the places you do not want it, and then re-injecting that fat into the places you do want it, such as the butt and the hips.
The procedure offers the benefit of liposuction in addition to the advantages of fat transfer. The end result is usually a smaller waist with perky butt and rounder hips.
Unfortunately, the infamous Brazilian butt lift procedure has been getting a bad rap as one of the most dangerous cosmetic procedures in the press over the past several years.
It has been called “the most dangerous cosmetic procedures”. There have also been recent Internet clips from a well-known Hollywood plastic surgeon claiming that this procedure is so deadly that it should not be performed.
The backlash over this procedure stems from a study that was performed in 2017. This study showed that there was a significant death risk when having a BBL procedure performed.
However, this is certainly not the case and evaluation of the actual data shows that this procedure is safer than a tummy tuck.
The 2017 Study
The study was published in 2017 using data from surveys to plastic surgeons. The data study showed there was a 1 in 3000 risk of death after a Brazilian butt lift procedure. This is certainly an extremely high death risk and understandably, this caused great concern amongst plastic surgeons as well as the general public.
No plastic surgeon would ever advocate for procedure that carries a 1 in 3000 chance of bbl death rate. Those of us who have been performing Brazilian butt lift procedures for a very long time and specialize in this procedure, immediately knew that this number just didn’t make sense.
When experts in Brazilian butt lift as well as people knowledgeable about scientific studies looked at the results of the survey, it became apparent that the study was just simply flawed on many levels. There were errors in statistical analysis and study design. But the damage was already done. Global media picked up on this reported bbl death rate of 1 in 3000, and there was an immediate call to ban the Brazilian butt lift.
There were some countries in Europe that went so far as to actually prohibit plastic surgeons from for performing this procedure. Additionally, there were some hospitals in the United States that placed this procedure on the list of prohibited operations. During this period of public uproar, there was also criticism of this procedure from other plastic surgeon who, quite frankly, never even performed this operation. It became a very hot topic within the plastic surgery community and caused a great division.
Luckily a better designed study was performed in 2019. This study did not have the flaws seen in the original 2017 survey. The results of this 2019 study show that the actual risk of death from the Brazilian butt lift is 1 in 15,000. This was quite different from the 1 in 3000 bbl death rate that was originally reported. And shows that this procedure is actually quite safe when performed correctly. In fact, for comparison, a tummy tuck procedure carries a death risk of 1 in 14,000. So, this means that the Brazilian butt lift is actually statistically safer than a tummy tuck.
Fat Embolisms
Obviously, there are risks with any surgical procedure. In addition to the usual risks of infection, bleeding, anesthetic reaction, and scarring, the Brazilian butt lift carries a unique risk because of the procedure itself. The procedure relies on injection of fat to fill up areas such as the butt and hips. Injecting fat into the body carries the potential risk of what is called a fat embolism. A fat embolism is when droplets of fat travel through a blood vessel to the heart lung and brain.
This is a potentially fatal complication. So how does a fat embolism occur during a Brazilian butt lift? In order for fat to travel through a blood vessel to other organs, fat needs to get into the blood vessel to begin with. When excess fat is being injected into the buttock, the surgeon needs to be very aware of the location of normal blood vessels in that area as to avoid accidental injection of excess fat into these vessels.
It is these instance of fat embolism’s that are responsible for the majority of unfortunate deaths associated with a Brazilian butt lift.
Ways to Minimize the Risk of a BBL
Regardless of whether or not reported data was flawed, it became quite obvious that the BBL procedure is a procedure growing in popularity and that we need to focus strongly on safety surrounding this procedure. This meant that plastic surgeons created guidelines to help minimize the risk associated with a BBL.
These guidelines were extremely important given the increasing popularity this procedure, as well as the increasing number of plastic surgeons who are starting to perform this procedure and may not have many years of experience that the experts have.
The majority of the guidelines focused around techniques during fat injections to minimize the risk of fat injections into blood vessels. This included:
improved knowledge of the anatomy of the area so that blood vessels can be avoided
patient positioning during the surgery
surgical instruments used to inject the fat
injecting the fat over the muscle as opposed to in the muscle or below the muscle
Rapid recognition of a potential fat embolism
Any plastic surgeon performing Brazilian butt lift procedures needs to be intimately aware of these guidelines in order to keep their patients safe.
How to keep yourself safe during your Brazilian Butt Lift Procedure
In addition to plastic surgeons being aware of techniques to reduce your risk during a BBL, there are also things you can do as a patient to reduce your risk. These include appropriately selecting your surgeon who is performing your procedure, and appropriately selecting the facility in which your procedure is going to be performed.
Choosing your surgeon
As you are probably familiar, you should always select a board-certified plastic surgeon for your plastic surgery procedure. More importantly though, you want to make sure that your board-certified plastic surgeon is experienced in the BBL. This BBL procedure is very specialized and carries unique risks as described earlier.
You want to make sure that they are an expert at the BBL procedure. This means that you should ask your surgeon how many of these BBL procedures they perform per month or per year. You also want to specifically ask what techniques they will use during this procedure.
This is because you want to make sure that they are following all safety guidelines in order to reduce your risk of potentially fatal complications. And experience board-certified plastic surgeon will not be offended by these questions. They will recognize that this is a potentially risky operation and they should appreciate your involvement and concern for your safety. If they get offended, then that may be an indication that they are not the right surgeon for you.
Choosing your facility
All plastic surgery procedure should be performed in accredited operating facility. This means that it could be a hospital, an ambulatory surgery setting, or an accredited office operating room. You want to make sure that wherever you are having the surgery is up-to-date with all safety standards and there is a board-certified anesthesiologist who will be administering your anesthesia and monitoring you throughout the procedure and stay in the recovery room.
As someone who has performed over 5000 Brazilian butt lift procedures safely, I never perform this operation under local anesthesia. I find that general anesthesia is safer, more comfortable for you, and allows me to provide you with a better surgical result.
What is the risk of death in BBL?
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with BBL, including the risk of death.
According to a study published in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal in 2019, the mortality rate for BBL was estimated to be 1 in 3,000 cases. This is higher than the mortality rate for most other cosmetic surgery procedures.
The main cause of death in BBL is fat embolism, which occurs when fat is injected into the muscle and then travels to the bloodstream, blocking vessels and causing damage to organs. To reduce the risk of fat embolism and other complications, it is important to choose a qualified and experienced surgeon, follow all pre- and post-operative instructions, and disclose any medical conditions or medications that could increase the risk of complications.
What is the biggest risk of a BBL?
The biggest risk associated with Brazilian Butt Lifts surgery is the development of fat embolism, which is when fat enters the bloodstream and blocks vessels, potentially leading to serious complications including death.
During a BBL, fat is removed from one area of the body (usually the abdomen, hips, or thighs) and transferred to the buttocks through injection. If the fat is injected into the deep muscle tissue instead of the subcutaneous fat layer, it can enter the bloodstream and travel to the lungs, brain, or heart, causing serious harm.
Other risks of BBL surgery include infection, bleeding, scarring, asymmetry, nerve damage, skin irregularities, and dissatisfaction with the results. However, fat embolism is the most significant risk associated with BBL surgery and can be life-threatening if not recognized and treated promptly.
If you would like to learn more about the Brazilian butt lift surgery, see BBL before and after photos and learn how you can get this cosmetic procedure done safely, you can contact New York City board-certified plastic surgeons Dr. Matthew Schulman.
Dr. Schulman is considered an expert at this procedure having performed more Brazilian butt lift BBL procedures in his career than most other plastic surgeons.

The surgical reduction or alteration of the labia minora and labia majora, or labiaplasty, in Chicago, Illinois, helps improve the comfort and personal confidence of countless women. Dr. Thomas Mustoe and Dr. Sammy Sinno recognize the personal nature of labiaplasty and understand that a number of different factors affect a woman’s decision to undergo it. Their experience and leadership within the field of plastic surgery inspire confidence in their labiaplasty patients, and they carefully apply their skills to each surgery to ensure results that exceed their patients’ standards.
If you would like to learn more about labiaplasty, request a consultation online with Dr. Mustoe and Dr. Sinno, board-certified plastic surgeons. Or you can call our office at (312) 788-2560 and one of our helpful staff members will schedule your appointment.
Choosing Labiaplasty
Labiaplasty is a relatively simple cosmetic procedure that can reduce the size or improve the symmetry of the inner labia, called the labia minora. The labia minora may be enlarged, asymmetrical, or stretched due to genetic factors or events such as childbirth. For the right candidate, the surgery can be both physically and psychologically beneficial. As with all cosmetic procedures, the decision to undergo labiaplasty rests squarely with the patient. Women who choose the surgery often cite at least one of the following reasons:
Physical discomfort during exercise or sexual activity
Feelings of embarrassment or self-consciousness that affect sexual satisfaction
Inability to wear certain styles of clothing or swimwear
Good candidates for labiaplasty are adult women who are in good overall health and who have realistic, specific expectations for their surgical outcomes.
In some patients, the labia majora are also enlarged, and they can be surgically reduced at the same time as surgery for the labia minora.
Advanced Labiaplasty Techniques
Dr. Mustoe and Dr. Sinno understand that the majority of their Chicago-area labiaplasty patients aren’t in pursuit of a uniform ideal. Instead, they want results that enhance their comfort without sacrificing their individuality. Your surgeon spends lots of time discussing your desired outcome with you. Eventually, he develops a surgical approach that meets your needs.
Labiaplasty is typically performed while you are under local anesthesia with sedation, either oral or intravenous, which improves your comfort and safety during and after the surgery. Some patients prefer general anesthesia, which is also an option. During surgery, Dr. Mustoe or Dr. Sinno reshapes and often reduces the labia minora using techniques that preserve sensation. Both surgeons have experience with several techniques that they tailor to the patient’s individual anatomy.
Although many women undergo labiaplasty as an isolated procedure, others choose to combine it with a tummy tuck or breast augmentation to restore the parts of the body that are most affected by pregnancy and childbirth.
Thanks to its relatively low invasiveness, recuperation following labiaplasty is typically brief and comfortable. The surgery is an outpatient procedure, which means you’ll be able to return home the same day. Some discomfort and soreness for the first several days is normal. During the first 24 hours, minimal activity and icing the area help ensure an uneventful recovery. Most patients are able to return to work and other light activity after about 3 days. Exercise and sexual activity should be avoided for longer, typically up to 6 weeks. The procedure can be done under IV sedation or general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure, and many patients choose to do the procedure under oral sedation as an office procedure. Dr. Mustoe has evolved repair techniques that minimize postoperative discomfort and allow early return to work and other routine activities.

The connection time corresponds to 76:39 hours per person. Specifically, we have 29.195 million pc users, 8.504 million tablets users and 34.549 million users from smartphone.
Analyzing the data by average day, the total audience is represented by 33.363 million users divided in the following percentages: 28.082 million smartphone users (62.6% of Italians aged 18-74), 5.395 million tablet users (12% of Italians aged 18-74) and 11.876 million computers (19.9% of Italians over 2 years old).

Postdoc - Storyline scenarios of extreme events with km-scale climate models using spectral nudging (m/f/d)
Background The Climate Dynamics section at the Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) in Bremerhaven, Germany, invites applications for a postdoc position in which spectral nudging will be employed in novel km-scale climate models for the evaluation of model fidelity and for the development of storyline scenarios of recent extreme events (e.g., heat waves and flooding). You will work at the interface of innovative science and technology with leading European climate modelers, computing scientists and software engineers on developing and applying digital twins of the climate system in support of adaptation to anthropogenic climate change.
You will be part of a team responsible for the development and application of spectral nudging capabilities in support of model evaluation and storyline scenario generation. More specifically, you will be in charge of developing storyline capabilities for km-scale atmosphere-only setups (technology for medium-resolution coupled setups is available) and use this configuration to explore how recent extreme events such as the flooding events in Europe in July 2021 might have unfolded in pre-industrial times (storyline attribution) and could unfold in +1.5K, +2K, +3K and +4K warmer worlds (storyline scenarios). Furthermore, you will carry out and analyse spectral nudging experiments with the coupled version of the km-scale system for the period 2017-today to provide novel insights into the origin of possible model short-comings.
A PhD in one or more of the following fields is required: Atmospheric physics, oceanography, climate sciences, physics, mathematics or related. Furthermore, a good understanding of climate dynamics and hands-on experience with climate models on HPC systems are expected. Demonstrated skill/proficiency in at least one programming language (e.g., FORTRAN and/or Python) and fluency in English are further requirements. Moreover, a track record of publishing in the peer-reviewed literature and the ability to communicate results are both distinct advantages. Given that the success of this project hinges on effective collaboration between partners, strong communication skills and the ability to work in teams are both a necessity.
Having experience in some of the following fields would be a distinct advantage:
Model error diagnosis
Model development and/or tuning
Effective communication of results
Handling and analysis of complex data formats (netCDF, zarr, CDO)
Please contact Prof. Dr. Thomas Jung (Thomas.Jung@awi.de; +49 15146722091) or Dr. Helge Goessling (Helge.Goessling@awi.de) for further information. This is a full-time position, limited to 24 months (1 March 2023 to 28 February 2025). It is also suitable for part-time employment. The salary will be paid in accordance with the Collective Agreement for the Public Service of the Federation (Tarifvertrag des offentlichen Dienstes, TVöD Bund), up to salary level 13.

Past, Present, Future: Award-winning author traces Phoenix College’s history in coffee table book
By on Success and Money
By Connor Dziawura
Award-winning author, educator, speaker and community activist Stella Pope Duarte has her roots planted firmly in the Valley.
Born and raised here, she is an alumna of Phoenix College who went on to graduate from ASU. One of many notable Phoenix College alumni, Duarte is a 2009 American Book Award recipient and Pulitzer Prize nominee, among numerous other award wins and nominations.
She has traveled far and wide to not only conduct research for her writings but teach and conduct workshops and presentations on various subjects for the likes of colleges, community centers, businesses and conferences.
It only seemed fitting that she would partner with the Phoenix College Alumni Association on a new coffee table book coinciding with her former school’s centennial. Though celebratory events have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the book—“Our Past. Your Future. The History of Phoenix College.”—is available to order for $29.
“I’m not afraid of history,” Duarte says. “I have walked the jungles of the Mekong Delta to write ‘Let Their Spirits Dance,’ the story of a young man who was killed in the Vietnam War from Phoenix, Arizona, and so forth; and then ‘If I Die in Juárez’ took me to Juárez for three years to document the murders of the girls in my book …
“This,” she says with emphasis, referring to the new book, “was 100 years of an iconic community college—the first in the Valley, because the idea of community college was brand new. I think there was only maybe two other—or three other—community colleges in the nation when the people that were coming together to form the college in 1920 decided to see what they could do here in Phoenix to form a college.”
Considering the school’s “enormous history” spanning a century, Duarte figured the only way to pull it off would be to go decade by decade, adding plenty of color and pictures to make it fun.
As part of what she calls a tedious, several-year process, Duarte says she did all the writing, with the alumni association providing the archives and matching the photos with her narratives. The information, she notes, was varied and had to be pared down.
She says she focused on highlights, recounting stories that in many cases had to connect with what was going on in the United States at large during any given era—from the world wars and politicians like Presidents Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan to pop culture figures like the Beatles and Simon & Garfunkel. Other write-ups, she says, acknowledge significant figures on campus, which have included famous coaches, athletes and legislators, among others. She says she could have profiled hundreds of people “because they were that important.”
Milestones include a civilian pilot training program, early computer-aided instruction, social justice programming, decades-long traditions like Bear Day, collegiate athletics and other important educational innovations.
The book also includes a foreword from Arizona State Historian Marshall Trimble and a chapter about the future of the school by Dr. Larry Johnson Jr., Phoenix College’s president.
Now the flagship of the 10 colleges in the Maricopa County Community College District, Phoenix College was founded in 1920 as Phoenix Junior College, a part of the Phoenix Union High School and Junior College District (which has since dropped the “and Junior College” portion of its name). Founders’ Day is September 13.
“It was a very humble beginning,” Duarte recalls. “They started in a sheet metal shop—a sheet metal shop, if you can believe that—an abandoned sheet metal shop that was part of Phoenix Union, because they did all kinds of classes, commercial classes and all kinds of career related classes.”
Tracing back to those days, she says it was important for her to observe and incorporate how the school structured itself internally and went on to influence education in the Valley at large.
“How was it bringing these innovations into the Valley? What kind of structure was influencing the whole idea of community colleges in the entire Valley?” she says were the questions she posed. “Because, see, the other schools, what happened was there was no one to model from except Phoenix College.”
During her multiyear research, writing and publication process, Duarte recalls a nonsegregation policy within the school as standing out.
“What I valued so much was that even in that sheet metal shop, those educators decided that they would never segregate nor discriminate anyone, that everyone would be welcome on the campus, regardless of race, of color, of language, of gender,” she says, noting that the parent Phoenix Union district was, in contrast, segregated at the time.
“Those gentlemen (who founded Phoenix College) made a pledge, and that has become, I believe, the greatest legacy of Phoenix College.”
When space was running short, she adds it was important to pay tribute to the innovative and dedicated instructors at Phoenix College, some of whom she jokes work there until their retirement or leave on a stretcher. She calls them “an amazing bunch of people.”
“I think the faculty, the administration, the volunteers, all the people that had anything to do with the college deserve just a standing ovation, because the students can only receive what is given to them through their educators that are there, the coaches, everybody—I mean, the love that they have for the students,” she says.
As for the funds from the book?
“I don’t want any of them,” reveals Duarte, giving a share of the credit to the alumni association for assisting in the process.
Proceeds from sales will fund the new My Future Scholarship, which aims to create educational equity, access and opportunity for underrepresented students. It is affiliated with the Maricopa Community Colleges Foundation.
“I said I don’t want the money, because the kids are in such need right now,” she continues. “There’s kids who cannot afford—they don’t even have a job, much less able to come back to college. So I told them (the alumni association) let the proceeds go to the students, and that’s what’s happened out there.”

The falcon's prey
A Japanese mission to return an asteroid sample to Earth hits problems
Nov 24th 2005 |
See any rabbits down there?
ITS target is ambitious: to be the first spacecraft to land on an asteroid, collect samples and return them to Earth. But the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's Hayabusa mission is experiencing a bumpy flight. A couple of weeks ago, the spacecraft, whose name translates as “Falcon”, released its tiny lander at the wrong time, sending it floating off into eternity instead of hopping about on asteroid Itokawa—which, not coincidentally, is named after Hideo Itokawa, the founder of Japan's space programme. Then, on November 20th, the probe itself managed to land briefly, but failed to deploy a second package of rock-collection equipment. It is expected to make a further attempt to swoop down on its prey in the next few days.
Researchers want samples from asteroids in order to learn more about the early solar system. Asteroids are remnants of the disc of dust and gas from which the planets formed 4.6 billion years ago. Their chemical compositions are thought, in many cases, to have remained unchanged by geological processes of the sort that shaped the Earth and the other inner planets. Some, however, are pieces of larger, geologically active bodies that have been shattered by collisions. In this case the inner workings of such bodies, which were, in effect, small planets, are exposed to scrutiny in a way that is impossible with existing small planets.
Most of the hundreds of thousands of asteroids within the solar system appear to have surfaces composed of carbon, silica or various metals—that much can be worked out by looking at the spectrum of the sunlight they reflect. But actual samples would provide a lot more detail. They might also prove valuable if it was ever necessary to divert the orbit of an asteroid that threatened to collide with the Earth.
Hayabusa's main objectives, though, are technical. It is the first interplanetary mission to use an ion engine as its main propulsion device. An ion engine is a rocket that is propelled by ionised (ie, electrically charged) gas that has been accelerated by electricity within the motor. Such a system is more efficient than a traditional chemical rocket, which is propelled by gas generated from a reaction between a fuel and an oxidant. Hayabusa thus requires only a tenth of the fuel of a traditional thrust engine, making it much lighter, and therefore easier to launch from Earth.
Hayabusa, which is running on autopilot, because radio signals from Earth take 17 minutes to arrive, has until early December to complete its business at the asteroid before embarking on the trip back home. It should return to Earth in June 2007, preferably with its cargo.

Meet Cleve
Cleve is very much active with the civic and social issues that face our city of Baton Rouge. He is often found at the Baton Rouge City Council meeting and at the state legislator advocating for resources for North Baton Rouge and other underserved communities. During the Great Flood of 2016, Cleve and his friends saved the lives of countless residents in the Park Forest and Monticello areas, by rescuing people from their flooded homes and transporting them to shelters. Cleve was a strong voice for increased access to healthcare in North Baton Rouge which eventually led to the opening of an Emergency Room in North Baton Rouge. Cleve was and has been on the front-line fighting justice for Alton Sterling in the aftermath of Mr. Sterling being killed by members of the Baton Rouge Police Department.
Cleve recently founded the Baton Rouge Youth Aviation Experience, which is designed to educate students about career opportunities in the aviation industry. The students from Baton Rouge are given the opportunity to participate in aviation related conferences throughout the country. These forum-style mentoring sessions are held for students interested in aviation and aviation-related businesses. The program exposes students to career opportunities in the aviation industry and the applicable education paths and provides networking opportunities with professional mentors to further students’ academic development. In addition to an in-depth view of the aviation industry, the students make connections with industry leaders and are provided information about scholarship and internship opportunities. Dunn raises the money to fund this program, which included transportation, lodging, and meals for the students. There are no out of pocket cost for students who participate in the program.

However, to effectively execute and repair your teeth in a manner that would be useful for you over many years, this seemingly straightforward dentistry alternative takes experience. Let us explain why dental implants are worth it, how much they cost, what they do, and why you should search for a dental practitioner with considerable training.
What Is a Dental Implant?
When you visit the dentist, and he tells you that you should get an implant, you must understand what is involved. You need to understand what is involved in terms of time and expense before signing on the dotted line for this treatment option, which is more than simply putting a “screw into the bone” when your dentist tells you that you should get an implant. When we discuss implants, you should have an understanding that the process involves several different components and processes, as well as that it takes some amount of time.
Putting a screw into bone is only one small part of an implant. You must remember that the implant will be inserted into three-dimensional space; hence, it is important to position the implant body inside this space accurately. An implant incorrectly positioned may be subjected to damaging pressures and strains, ultimately failing. Two implants may be seen converging in the x-ray image on the right, but there is no parallel line of a draw between them.
The Cost of Dental Implants
A single implant fixture that does not need extra auxiliary surgical operations can range in price anywhere from $1,600 to $3,000 on average. The abutment and crown, if required, can add an extra $1,200 to $3,000 to the total cost. Therefore, the overall cost of a single implant might range anywhere from $2,800 to $6,000, depending on the type of implant.
In addition to the expense of dental implants, you may anticipate an additional cost of between $7,000 and $20,000 per arch for implant-supported dentures. This restoration often calls for between four and six implants placed in each arch. The lower dentures, which are the ones that tend to be the least retentive owing to the muscular motions of the cheeks and tongue, are the ones that are often hybridized when they are manufactured for the patient.
Are Denture Implants Really Worth It?
Even though the price of denture implants has dropped significantly over the past few years, their short-term costs are still higher than those of any other conventional denture solution. Due to this, many patients are left wondering whether or not the benefits of denture implants justify the higher price tag.
To that, we’d say yes!
Dental implants are a worthwhile investment due to their myriad advantages. Because you do not have to have them extracted and they can endure for twenty years or more, it is almost as if you are getting your natural teeth back. In addition to this, they assist in preserving the natural structure of your jawbone and prevent it from eroding over time. Click here to learn more.

Employment Application Form – Employers can include fillable sections on the application form for employment to help them assess the qualifications and skills of applicants. These questions could include management and leadership abilities, work ethic, and personal traits. Some employers require certain background checks and government-issued certificates. These sections are able to be filled in with information about your personal details as well as educational qualifications. These are five examples of application forms. Here are some helpful tips to use when filling out the application form. Below are some examples of useful questions and formats to consider when you fill out your employment application form.

Human resource departments will consider the above traits when evaluating applicants. Here’s some guidelines for how to fill out an application for employment which will allow you to distinct from the rest of the applicants. Be sure to think about whether the information requested on the application is actually pertinent.
The effectiveness of an request form lies in its substance. The job application form is typically divided into six primary sections. These sections comprise personal information including educational background, work record, relevant experiences and references. Some forms also include other sections that are optional.

Key Tronic Corporation Announces Results for the Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 2022
Posted by Jennifer Read | Feb 2, 2022 | Americas, EMS, News
Strong Customer Demand for US Production and New Program Wins
SPOKANE VALLEY, Wash– Key Tronic Corporation (Nasdaq: KTCC), a provider of electronic manufacturing services (EMS), today announced its results for the quarter ended January 1, 2022.
For the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, Key Tronic reported total revenue of $134.5 million, up 5% from $128.3 million in the same period of fiscal year 2021. Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 related to customer one-time reimbursements for tooling, equipment and other expenses increased approximately $10 million when compared to the previous year. For the first six months of fiscal year 2022, total revenue was $267.2 million, compared to $251.5 million in the same period of fiscal year 2021.
During second quarter of fiscal year 2022, the global supply chain, pandemic and transportation issues continued to disrupt production, including intermittent parts supply, factory downtime and overtime expenses. In addition, the Company had a seasonal closure for two weeks at the end of December, and revenue attributed to customer reimbursements did not contribute to its gross margin. Legal costs related specifically to the SEC’s review of last year’s whistleblower complaint totaled approximately $0.7 million during the quarter. For the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, the Company’s gross margin was 7.3% and operating margin was 1.2%, compared to a gross margin of 8.3% and an operating margin of 2.1% in the same period of fiscal year 2021.
For the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, net income was $0.6 million or $0.05 per share, compared to $1.6 million or $0.14 per share for the same period of fiscal year 2021. For the first six months of fiscal year 2022, net income was $1.4 million or $0.13 per share, compared to $3.3 million or $0.30 per share for the same period of fiscal year 2021.
“We’re pleased with the successful ramp of new programs and our expanding customer base in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, despite the continued headwinds from the global supply chain and COVID-19 challenges,” said Craig Gates, President and Chief Executive Officer. “During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we continued to see the favorable trend of contract manufacturing returning to North America, with a significant increase in production across our US-based facilities.”
“During the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, we won new programs involving industrial robots, lighting control, disinfection, food production and energy management systems. We also announced a significant new program win with one of the world’s leading power equipment companies, for which we expect to begin manufacturing in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023 and, once fully ramped, could contribute approximately $80 million in annual revenue.”
“While we expect one of our largest customers to reduce demand in coming periods, those reductions will be more than offset by ramps from new customers. Nevertheless, the global supply chain and COVID-19 crises continue to present uncertainty and multiple business challenges, including industry-wide electronic component shortages, workforce disruptions and higher labor costs, which will adversely impact results.”

| Focus 3/3 | Learning to live with rivers, a matter of geomorphology
Applied science for sustainable river management
In the 1960s and 1980s, the river was considered a space to be developed for certain uses, to exploit its resources and to protect itself from risks due to the evolution of the bed, whether from flooding or erosion. The interventions were then defined within the framework of “Development Plans”.
Since the 1990s, actions on watercourses have undergone profound changes and diversified. It is no longer just a question of developing but also of maintaining, managing (sustainably) or restoring so that the watercourse provides a certain number of services. Diagnostics have become more complex. They are based on the study of the evolutionary trajectory of the bed over several decades. They recognize the importance of the upstream basin, which can experience changes that lead to adjustments of the bed further downstream. It is no longer a question of proposing a layout to meet the problems raised. Different solutions are generally considered, with the construction of infrastructure (dikes, bank protection, thresholds) being one of them. The approaches have become integrated, trying to take into account all the issues simultaneously. They are part of a functional or systemic perspective to establish diagnoses whereas previous approaches were much more local (where the problem lies). They were based above all on an analysis of the present state.
Geomorphological issues have become central to river management and a geomorphological study is now often recommended in “global studies” prior to a River Contract or a Water Development and Management Scheme (SAGE) [1]. How does the river work from a geomorphological point of view? What are the problems associated with this operation? But also, who is responsible for the dysfunctions observed? Establishing properly what these dysfunctions are and to which they are linked allows us to identify the right solutions. Long focused on symptoms, it is possible, by reconsidering diagnoses more systematically, to focus more on aches and pains. Geomorphology is thus responsible for maintaining the river body in good health, and in some cases for treating it.
Geomorphology will shed light on the container (the river bed), assess its robustness or fragility, the associated hazards and risks and their evolution, and the quality of ecological habitats. Geomorphology is used to explain the ecological state of a river. The objective of achieving “good ecological status”, as recommended by the WFD (Water Framework Directive) [2], is often based on actions affecting the geomorphology of the bed. This good state is ecological but its achievement is based on repair actions that are often physical. Habitat improvement, diversification or reconnection is a matter of physical restoration [3] or “hydromorphological” (e.g., hydrological or geomorphological) [4].
The removal of transversal structures (thresholds or dams) is an eminently geomorphological issue and very sensitive in the current social context. What is the impact of these structures on sediment transit? What will be the adjustment of the bed once they are removed?
On the Rhine downstream of the Kembs dam, it was planned to restore solid transport in order to diversify aquatic habitats. The geomorphological approach made it possible to assess the risks associated with this action, the risk of rapid downstream transfer of the bottom load and disruption of navigation, the risk of changing water lines and increasing the frequency of flooding, and the risk of destabilizing the bottom. It also showed that this solution should undoubtedly be combined with a widening of the bed to fully bear fruit in restoring the river’s good ecological status.

APF - End FGM Youth Ambassadors in Portuguese Parliament
In connection with the International Day of Zero Tolerance to Female Genital Mutilation, a saluting vote was approved by the Committee on Constitutional Affairs, Rights and Guarantees, reaffirming the Assembly of the Portuguese Republic's commitment to the eradication of this scourge and the defence of the Human Rights of threatened girls and women or subject to this practice, and with the work of all people, many through personal testimonies, entities or associations that daily strive to combat this scourge and empower girls and women in society.
In this sense and considering the relevant role in preventing and combating this serious form of gender violence, it was requested that entities should be heard in the Subcommittee for Equality and Non-Discrimination, hold on June 1st, with a joint hearing of various entities on the subject of female genital mutilation.
Fatucha Banora and Ana So, were invited as Young Ambassadors of the End FGM European Network to talk about their work and the difficulties experienced in combating this harmful practice.
They spoke about the work they have been developing together with other young people at a European level, like the Purple Chair (YouTube channel to give voice to young people from affected communities) and the contact they have had with other young people in Portugal through online awareness actions. They expressed the importance of a non-stigmatising approach to communities but also the importance of this work being done alongside with their communities.
They reflected on the importance of the next steps being linked to their countries of origin and their commitment to the development of initiatives in this regard.
Their presentations were highly praised by the present deputies and resulted in personal conversations at the end of the session, where some opportunities for implementing projects with the countries of descent were advanced. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/13028 | {"url": "https://www.endfgm.eu/news-en-events/news/apf-end-fgm-youth-ambassadors-in-portuguese-parliament/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.endfgm.eu", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:33:36Z", "digest": "sha1:E3XCV3FL7C5L5USZOODKU6OLA4UN7DOV"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 1969, 1969.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 1969, 3663.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 1969, 7.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 1969, 63.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 1969, 0.97]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 1969, 214.7]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 1969, 0.44776119]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 1969, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 1969, 0.01527184]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 1969, 0.02748931]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 1969, 0.02443494]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 1969, 0.00895522]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 1969, 0.07462687]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 1969, 0.5276873]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 1969, 5.33224756]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 1969, 4.61607373]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 1969, 307.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 57, 0.0], [57, 611, 1.0], [611, 933, 1.0], [933, 1120, 1.0], [1120, 1580, 1.0], [1580, 1744, 1.0], [1744, 1969, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 57, 0.0], [57, 611, 0.0], [611, 933, 0.0], [933, 1120, 0.0], [1120, 1580, 0.0], [1580, 1744, 0.0], [1744, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 57, 8.0], [57, 611, 86.0], [611, 933, 51.0], [933, 1120, 30.0], [1120, 1580, 72.0], [1580, 1744, 27.0], [1744, 1969, 33.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 57, 0.0], [57, 611, 0.0], [611, 933, 0.00316456], [933, 1120, 0.0], [1120, 1580, 0.0], [1580, 1744, 0.0], [1744, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 57, 0.0], [57, 611, 0.0], [611, 933, 0.0], [933, 1120, 0.0], [1120, 1580, 0.0], [1580, 1744, 0.0], [1744, 1969, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 57, 0.19298246], [57, 611, 0.03249097], [611, 933, 0.01863354], [933, 1120, 0.06417112], [1120, 1580, 0.0173913], [1580, 1744, 0.00609756], [1744, 1969, 0.00444444]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 1969, 0.3648445]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 1969, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 1969, 0.23771971]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 1969, -7.29524876]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 1969, 31.94543564]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 1969, 27.6780882]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 1969, 7.0]]} |

What I Learned About Life Running a Half-Marathon
The joy of reaching a goal is not in its completion, but in the journey it took to get there.
By Charlie Harary • Apr 25, 2016
This week I did something I never thought I'd cross off my bucket list: I ran a marathon. Well, a half marathon. Nonetheless, 13.1 miles was more than I ever thought I'd ever run.
It wasn't exactly what I expected; it was so much more.
Somewhere around mile six, when I realized I had at least another hour of running ahead of me, something dawned on me. The satisfaction you get from running a marathon has very little to do with the marathon itself.
Related: Achieve Any Goal By Following These 5 Simple Steps
Think about. Marathons are a crazy concept. Thousands of people line up to simultaneously run in a circle around streets, and thousands more come out to cheer them on. Yet when we do it, we feel this incredible surge of excitement and energy. Why?
Because a marathon is more than just the exercise and the endorphins; it's a metaphor for life and I believe deep down we know it.
Here are the six life lessons I learned between mile 6 and 9 of my run:
1. Being before doing.
Do you want to achieve "greatness" and be "somebody"? First, decide who that is -- then figure out what you need to do. Sadly, we have it backwards. We take actions be someone. We study to be a good student. We work to be rich. We act in order to achieve.
I've never met someone who first trained for a marathon and then signed up. Every marathon runner I met made the decision to run and then used the commitment to motivate them to make it happen.
I personally never ran more than two miles in my life but I wanted to run the marathon so I signed up. Once I clicked "register", I had no choice but to figure out what to do to be a person capable of crossing the finish line.
Life works in a similar way. Greatness comes in the moments of clarity when you realize who you want to be, whether it's a great spouse, parent, entrepreneur, or community leader. Once you've decided what shoes you want to fill, then you can figure out how to get there.
2. Real transformation takes time.
We live in a world of immediate results. Have you ever wanted to lose weight for a wedding so you crash dieted the week before? You may drop two or three pounds, but it never lasts. Usually you put the weight back on plus a few more. Real change takes time. Lasting change is a slow and steady process.
Preparing for a marathon is a slow, dedicated process of consistent training, dietary changes and mental preparation. No one even dares train the week before. That's how you become somebody who can reach the finish line while still breathing.

3. Habits help you soar.
Growth doesn't happen in a vacuum. It's the result of having the right habits. Habits are developed by creating rituals, behaviors that you repeat regularly. Successful people understand this. Instead of fixating on a goal, they focus on the rituals they can perform daily to form the habits that will enable them to grow properly.
If you want to run a marathon, you can't just wake up, feel inspired, go for a run and then not run again for weeks. Proper training requires rituals and habits. It's the rituals you do and the habits you form that transform who you are.
4. Compete against yourself.
To be a professional athlete, you typically have to win a genetic lottery. If you don't fit a certain physical mold or have exceptional natural ability, you can't compete. Marathons are the exception. Join the crowd at any marathon and you'll see people of varying shapes and sizes, ages and levels of physical fitness. Often, all are welcome.
Most runners aren't competing for first place. They're competing against themselves, either for a better personal time or simply to finish. Life is similar. While it may look like a race against others, the only real competition is yourself. Rather than looking over your shoulder to see how everybody else is doing, focus inward to see how you can evolve.

5. Growth is inspiring.
At the marathon, I was struck by the number of people cheering us on, despite the cold weather. People came out in droves. They made signs and handed out cups of water and Gatorade. But the crowd wasn't just made up of family and friends. People came out of comfortable coffee shops and restaurants to watch strangers run.
Why? Because growth is inspiring. A marathon is hundreds of people moving towards a goal. And that speaks to us. Deep down, we're built with the desire to constantly move toward ambitious goals. It's inspiring to see other people doing that.
6. Picture the destination, appreciate the journey.
When you're training in the winter for the Miami Marathon and you live in the Northeast, you do most of your training indoors on a treadmill. When I needed inspiration during my runs, I pictured reaching the finish line surrounded by a cheering crowd.
But the strangest thing happened at the race. While I was running, I focused less on the finish line. I started appreciating the run itself.
Many of life's regrets come when we look back and realize we were so focused on reaching a destination that we forgot to appreciate the journey. Have you ever wished you spent less time worrying about your grades in school and more time enjoying the learning? Have you ever regretted not enjoying the freedom of being single? Did you make time to enjoy your kids when they were little?
We're so busy trying to get to the next stage or reach the next goal that we miss out on the journey.
Don't get me wrong. At every stage in life, we should be growing and moving towards a goal. But unless you stop to appreciate where you are, you'll wind up missing the whole experience.
At the marathon, the finish line was a total let-down. After weeks of training and hours of pushing myself, I turned the corner and it was over. After crossing the finish line I realized that the climax wasn't the finish line, it was the journey itself.

110- neurotics and psychopaths (62 men, 48 women aged 15-62) received LSD from 1-26 times: gradually increased from 50 to 150 mcg. orally at intervals of 1-6 (usually 2) weeks; some of them had already been given psychoanalytic treatment for 6 years without marked result. Choice of cases, preparation of LSD treatment, abortion (50 mg. chlorpromazine and/or 100 mg. Secobarbital orally; possibly 50 mg. chlorpromazine or 100 mg. prochlorpromazine t.i.d.) and psychotherapeutic technique are described in detail. . LSD was very effective in 73 cases (66.4%), especially striking in 50 (45.5%) of these cases, i.e. only by the aid of LSD was it possible to understand and solve the fundamental problems. In only 3 cases did LSD fail to facilitate psychotherapy. . Side effects occurred only once as transient psychic reaction following administration of LSD. One case of suicide (described in detail) is not attributable to LSD. . Compared with the previous therapy without drugs the combination of LSD and deep psychotherapy caused, in most cases, a more profound penetration and an accelerated psychotherapeutic effect. Some patients were made accessible to psychoanalysis only by LSD. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/13031 | {"url": "https://www.erowid.org/references/refs_view.php?ID=1843&S=Ho_T&SField=all", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.erowid.org", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:23:56Z", "digest": "sha1:GAG4HU6VXH4SP5TV2VZE6AH2NFZ3RI5K"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 1525, 1525.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 1525, 2225.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 1525, 8.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 1525, 35.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 1525, 0.91]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 1525, 333.7]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 1525, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 1525, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 1525, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 1525, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 1525, 0.25075529]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 1525, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 1525, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 1525, 0.07113317]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 1525, 0.07113317]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 1525, 0.07113317]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 1525, 0.07113317]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 1525, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 1525, 0.0165426]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 1525, 0.04218362]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 1525, 0.0471464]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 1525, 0.07250755]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 1525, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 1525, 0.35045317]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 1525, 0.64125561]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 1525, 5.42152466]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 1525, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 1525, 4.72592377]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 1525, 223.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 25, 1.0], [25, 106, 1.0], [106, 144, 1.0], [144, 287, 1.0], [287, 316, 0.0], [316, 328, 0.0], [328, 339, 0.0], [339, 1525, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 25, 0.0], [25, 106, 0.0], [106, 144, 0.0], [144, 287, 0.0], [287, 316, 0.0], [316, 328, 0.0], [328, 339, 0.0], [339, 1525, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 25, 4.0], [25, 106, 10.0], [106, 144, 2.0], [144, 287, 16.0], [287, 316, 5.0], [316, 328, 2.0], [328, 339, 2.0], [339, 1525, 182.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 25, 0.0], [25, 106, 0.02666667], [106, 144, 0.2962963], [144, 287, 0.08064516], [287, 316, 0.16666667], [316, 328, 0.0], [328, 339, 0.0], [339, 1525, 0.03890363]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 25, 0.0], [25, 106, 0.0], [106, 144, 0.0], [144, 287, 0.0], [287, 316, 0.0], [316, 328, 0.0], [328, 339, 0.0], [339, 1525, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 25, 0.24], [25, 106, 0.04938272], [106, 144, 0.15789474], [144, 287, 0.11188811], [287, 316, 0.13793103], [316, 328, 0.25], [328, 339, 0.27272727], [339, 1525, 0.02866779]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 1525, 0.3904596]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 1525, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 1525, 0.35859931]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 1525, -113.82951547]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 1525, -42.95169026]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 1525, -5.93390887]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 1525, 38.0]]} |

The present study attempted to determine the incidence of use of this compound at a university campus. Undergraduates at Stanford University were randomly and anonymously polled about the possible use of MDMA. The subjects were asked whether they had ever taken 'ecstasy' or 'MDMA.' Of a total of 369 subjects interviewed, 143 (39 percent) reported that they had used the drug at least once. The frequencv of use by the subjects ranged from 1 to 38 times. The median number was 4, and the mean was 5.4. The amount of drug taken in a single dose ranged from 60 to 250 mg (approximately 1 to 4 mg per kilogram of body weight). | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/13032 | {"url": "https://www.erowid.org/references/refs_view.php?ID=852&C=MDMA&S=mDB1v9", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.erowid.org", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:34:39Z", "digest": "sha1:4U6KGMLBSMW35WI2LKLKNDOMLTYDICOA"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 969, 969.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 969, 1711.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 969, 6.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 969, 33.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 969, 0.94]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 969, 178.2]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 969, 0.2985782]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 969, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 969, 0.21382008]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 969, 0.29986962]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 969, 0.29986962]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 969, 0.29986962]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 969, 0.21382008]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 969, 0.21382008]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 969, 0.02607562]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 969, 0.04432855]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 969, 0.04954368]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 969, 0.0521327]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 969, 0.34123223]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 969, 0.55921053]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 969, 5.04605263]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 969, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 969, 4.19220516]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 969, 152.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 13, 1.0], [13, 132, 1.0], [132, 167, 1.0], [167, 333, 1.0], [333, 345, 0.0], [345, 969, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 13, 0.0], [13, 132, 0.0], [132, 167, 0.0], [167, 333, 0.0], [333, 345, 0.0], [345, 969, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 13, 2.0], [13, 132, 12.0], [132, 167, 5.0], [167, 333, 19.0], [333, 345, 2.0], [345, 969, 112.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 13, 0.0], [13, 132, 0.01818182], [132, 167, 0.51851852], [167, 333, 0.10810811], [333, 345, 0.0], [345, 969, 0.03465347]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 13, 0.0], [13, 132, 0.0], [132, 167, 0.0], [167, 333, 0.0], [333, 345, 0.0], [345, 969, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 13, 0.23076923], [13, 132, 0.04201681], [132, 167, 0.11428571], [167, 333, 0.07228916], [333, 345, 0.25], [345, 969, 0.02724359]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 969, 0.58744723]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 969, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 969, 0.42550904]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 969, -68.0694208]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 969, -14.3251493]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 969, 14.72143839]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 969, 15.0]]} |

Oregon State stifles Washington State 62-47
PULLMAN, Wash. -- The Oregon State Beavers lack depth, scoring and experience. What they do not lack is heart.
"They're playing their butts off. Really dialed in defensively," first-year coach Wayne Tinkle said after the Beavers held red-hot Washington State to 29.2 percent shooting from the floor in a 62-47 triumph Saturday night at Beasley Coliseum.
Junior guard Langston Morris-Walker posted career highs of 22 points and 11 rebounds for the Beavers (12-5, 3-2 Pac-12). Morris-Walker said Tinkle has inspired the troops in Oregon State's best start since going 15-2 in 1989-90.
"He always preaches, `If we're going to lose, it's not going to be because the other team played harder than us," Morris-Walker said.
Oregon State's zone defense gave the Cougars (9-8, 3-2) fits in their first outing since Thursday, when they scored 108 points in an overtime win against Oregon. WSU scored 10 fewer points in Saturday's entire game than they scored in the first half Thursday.
"They did a good job of executing that (defense)," Washington State star DaVonte Lacy said after scoring all of his team-high 16 points in the second half.
"Coach Tinkle, I like to think of him as a defensive guru," Morris-Walker said. "Him and his staff are great with us defensively."
The Beavers shot 48.8 percent from the field, outrebounded WSU 37-22 and had a 24-12 advantage in points in the paint. Oregon State silenced a season-high crowd of 5,116 by scoring the first six points of the first half and the first eight points of the second half. Lacy was slowed by a bruised right knee he suffered late in the Oregon game.
"Oregon State did an excellent job," WSU coach Ernie Kent said. "They are very well coached."
The Beavers led from the opening basket. The Cougars trailed 25-16 at the half, and when they narrowed Oregon State's lead to 46-39 with 4:57 to go, Morris-Walker quickly answered with a 3-pointer. Morris-Walker scored 19 points in the second half.
"Langston hit some big, big 3s for us," Tinkle said. "Super proud of him, and he earned it. He defended his tail off, rebounded well."
Tinkle said the Beavers stress the need for guards to rebound well when playing zone defense. Gary Payton, a 6-foot-3 guard, led the Beavers with 13 rebounds. He also had 13 points and a game-high five steals.
"Gary is an unbelievable rebounder," Tinkle said.
"Gary is one of the best rebounders I've ever played with," Morris-Walker said. "Any position."
Kent praised the "tremendous" crowd support, but the coach said his young team was "just not back where they needed to be" mentally after the thrilling victory over Oregon.
Oregon State: The Beavers have won four consecutive games against Washington State for the first time since a four-game run from 1999-2001.
Washington State: The Cougars, who were riding a three-game winning streak, have already tied their conference wins total from a year ago, and they're just one shy of last season's overall victory total. WSU finished 10-21 last season, including 3-15 in the Pac-12.
PAYTON POWER
Gary Payton II leads the Beavers with 11.8 points, 8.5 rebounds and 2.9 steals per game. The junior college transfer ranked second in NCAA Division I through Friday with 2.8 steals.
SHORTHANDED BEAVERS
The Beavers, already short on depth and scholarship players, played their second game without sixth man Victor Robbins. He's serving a 10-game suspension for a violation of athletic department policy. Robbins is Oregon State's third-leading scorer at 10.3.
Oregon State hosts UCLA on Thursday.
Washington State visits Utah on Wednesday.
