“Innovation has nothing to do with how many R&D dollars you have. It's about the people you
THE SOURCING OF INNOVATION AND INNOVATION IN THE PROCUREMENT ORGANISATION
The use of the word ‘innovation’ has even surpassed the use and abuse of terms like ‘partnership’ and ‘value’. This article will discuss the specific role of sourcing in bringing these three concepts together.
Let us start with a definition: “Innovation is the implementation of a new product or process that has been further developed or significantly improved in the business world.”
The word ‘implementation’ in the definition above is used to specifically differentiate the term ‘innovation’ from ‘invention’.
The term ‘improved’ highlights the fact that competitiveness, thanks to innovation, is greatly improved because it no longer depends solely on economies of scale but relies, instead, on ‘applied creativity’.
Innovation implies change and change often creates discomfort. The word ‘improved’ underlines that while ‘change’ is perceived as uncomfortable, innovation always adds value and is an improvement of the status quo.
In The Pyramid of Needs (a tool we use in Method P#1 to collect and classify the user requirements), Innovation is at the fourth level, this means that before focusing on innovation the procurement team must also assure to other more basic requirements.
The creative process is almost always a consequence of an external input. It is, therefore, always important for a company to allow open interaction with the external world so that new ideas can be properly channelled into the business. Procurement should play a key role in managing this interface with the external world.
‘Process innovation’ can address both the activities of line functions (inbound logistics, operations, outbound logistics, operational marketing and sales, post sales service, etc.) as well as the activities of support functions (Finance, Planning, Control, Administration, Strategic Marketing, R&D, HR, IT, Procurement, R&D).
Encouraging innovation in an organisation however, does not guarantee innovative behaviours; there should be systems and processes in place to stimulate innovation and ensure a receptive environment for creativity and to ensure these ideas can be capitalised on.
Modern procurement functions should be a key channel to the market.
This article proposes a roadmap to integrate the ‘innovation’ in the supply management process of the organisation that aim to increase the ‘Sourcing Maturity Index.’ (an indicator of the level of competitiveness of the procurement function.)
The steps will be: (see Fig. 2):
Strategic Alignment: Understanding corporate strategy and defining procurement strategy
Transformation design: Designing all the structural levers (skills development plan, new organisation, IT systems plan, Metrics, Processes) for a competitive procurement function
Transformation implementation: run the transition to completion of the new procurement function enabling capability to be a key player in the scouting and sourcing of innovation for all the others functions.
Strategic Alignment
What are the elements of strategic thinking we need to reach Strategic Alignment?
I suggest five elements:
System Perspective: the understanding of the external, internal and business ecosystem.
Focus Intent: the identification of goals and defining plans for their achievement.
Intelligent Opportunism: to take advantage of new opportunities that may emerge in a rapidly changing environment.
Realism: to make the best of what is available.
Hypothesis driven: to accommodate both creative and analytical thinking. Hypothesis generation poses the creative questions. Hypothesis testing follows up the critical question by evaluating the hypothesis with an analytical approach based on facts and data.
Strategy is primarily a military concept and some characteristics of “strategy” in the business context are that it:
Defines the long-term direction of an organisation affecting operational decisions
Defines how to achieve an advantage over competitors
Matches the resources and activities of an organisation to the environment in which it operates
Builds an organisation’s resources to create opportunities to capitalise on them
Requires main resource change for an organisation
Strategy is affected not only by environmental forces but also by the value and expectations of those who have power in the organisation.
In Method P#1 we use the following definition:
“Strategy is the direction and scope of an organisation over the long term that achieves advantage through its configuration of resources within a changing environment and to fulfil stakeholders’ expectations. Tactics are the short-term decisions made in response to changing circumstances in order to make use of currently available resources to achieve limited goals”.
In the case of ‘innovation’ for procurement this can be applied in two directions.
To transform the procurement organisation acting on the structural levers (and IT technology is one of them)
To contribute to the sourcing of innovation
Transformation Design
Transformation design starts from the analysis of the ‘as is’ situation of the five structural levers. For the ‘to be’ element of the plan the structural levers should be identified whilst ensuring alignment with the Procurement Strategy. The ‘gap analysis’ will be the input for the ‘roadmap’ (transformation plan) to move from the present situation to the desired one. (Fig.3)
The design of the different structural levers has to be conducted in parallel. The change of one lever will have influence on the other levers and therefore it is important to proceed step by step. Method P#1 proposes the following sequence for the steps: First, the skill development plan v1’and the ‘metrics design v1’. As a next step, there is the ‘process design v1 ’, and in parallel ‘IT systems design v1’ and ‘organisational structure design v1’. After the first iteration, you can follow version 2 and so on until the final design.
Skills Development Plan: The Key Words are ‘Awareness’ and ‘Integration’
Experience has taught us that we need to begin the transformation with the development of “consciousness” by raising awareness and to move the key managers from ‘unconscious incompetence’ to ‘conscious incompetence’. This is the most difficult step for many projects. The key word is ‘integration’. Robert A. Lutz, chairman of General Motors said “I was amazed at the lack of functional integration in the companies I worked for. I just couldn’t understand why there was so little real communication between the design, engineering, manufacturing and procurement organizations.” (source: Straight to the Bottom Line). As companies optimise their supply management, it becomes clear that shareholder value is driven through the combination of processes that are focused on creating value for the end customer. Loosely coordinated functions focused on the optimisation of their individual objectives cannot compete with a supply chain operating as an Interfunctional team.
It is not easy to improve if we do not measure our evolution. At the beginning we will decide to use very easy metrics (KPIs) and as soon as the maturity of the organisation progresses, we will design and use more complex ones. The urgency of this activity is related to the need to motivate personnel and keep them moving in the right direction.
To design a chart with the procurement sub-process can be of help in this phase because it is easy to understand and is also a good tool for communication with non-procurement participants.
Information Technology System Design
IT procurement systems are strong enablers to force change but we need to select them only when we have at least a high level understanding of the desired user requirements and process. Pre-configured IT systems are useful because they already have embedded detailed processes derived from best practice. A typical error is to manage the change project focusing solely on IT technology and start the use of the new system with limited training of the personnel. Digitalization of the procurement process gives the opportunity and time to procurement professionals to focus on the management of strategic activities and generate more value.
Organisation Design
Method P#1 puts organisation design as the last step. Starting with organisation design as a first step can create resistance and conflict, but according to our project research in many cases companies still favour this as the first lever to be used in transformation. Sourcing is a process with many stakeholders (it is too important to be left solely to the procurement function). Stakeholders must be integrated into the new structural levers and not be passive observers of it.
The integration during the design is accomplished in the following ways:
Definition of key stakeholders
Definition of the stakeholders’ needs
Identification of how they are behaving today in the supply chain arena
Define how they need to behave relative to the potential supply chain impact
Define the new organisation and sell the behaviour we need to achieve
As with any negotiation, the most difficult point is to understand the real needs of the other stakeholders involved in the negotiation. Stakeholders must recognise the impact of improved supply chain performance within their own domain. If the company is not culturally ready for change and a strong Chief Purchasing Officer (CPO) is recruited into the organisation, a special effort will be required by the CEO to support the transformation.
One approach is to engage the key managers (CFO, Head of Business Units, CTO, etc.) during the implementation of the transformation to make them ‘the business champions’ of the new sourcing projects. This approach brings fast results but needs a very strong leader at the top of the company and a CPO with a credible track record of success.
Many CEOs put emphasis on good supply management, but the real commitment is evident when they choose their CPO. In the last years, companies that have experienced the most pain did the most external recruiting. There are many factors to consider when designing the ideal profile, but the most important is the candidate’s attitude toward innovation and leading people. The new CPO has to be a team leader able to attract and retain a cast of talented people and to work as an innovation leader with their peers.
History shows us that investing in Research and Development is useful but on its own it is not enough to foster innovation and that, in reality, it is more important to create the right business ecosystems and develop organisational solutions such as the creation of ‘Interfunctional buying centres’.
Transformation Implementation
For this part, there is not a common rule. The skills needed to achieve excellence in implementation are the ability to lead the transformation (leadership skills) while keeping the organisation performing in the operational activities (management skills).
The new leader will:
Have cross- functional work experience (this is much more important than having many years only in procurement!)
Be credible with key internal stakeholders
Have high energy and strong work ethics
Be a strategic thinker and be capable of moving beyond the traditional CPO role
Have the courage to make unpopular decisions that are good for the business. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11634 | {"url":

TO AMEND SECTION 42-1-160 OF THE 1976 CODE, RELATING TO INJURY AND PERSONAL INJURY IN WORKERS' COMPENSATION, TO PROVIDE THAT A LIMITATION ON STRESS, MENTAL INJURIES, AND MENTAL ILLNESS FOR WORKERS' COMPENSATION DOES NOT APPLY TO A FIRST RESPONDER DIAGNOSED WITH POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER, AND TO DEFINE NECESSARY TERMS.
SECTION 1. Section 42-1-160 of the 1976 Code is amended to read:
"Section 42-1-160. (A) 'Injury' and 'personal injury' mean only injury by accident arising out of and in the course of employment and shall not include a disease in any form, except when it results naturally and unavoidably from the accident and except such diseases as are compensable under the provisions of Chapter 11 of this title. In construing this section, an accident arising out of and in the course of employment includes employment of an employee of a municipality outside the corporate limits of the municipality when the employment was ordered by a duly authorized employee of the municipality.
(B) Stress, mental injuries, and mental illness arising out of and in the course of employment unaccompanied by physical injury and resulting in mental illness or injury are not considered a personal injury unless the employee establishes, by a preponderance of the evidence:
(1) that the employee's employment conditions causing the stress, mental injury, or mental illness were extraordinary and unusual in comparison to the normal conditions of the particular employment; and
(2) the medical causation between the stress, mental injury, or mental illness, and the stressful employment conditions by medical evidence.
(C) The provisions of subsection (B)(1) do not apply, however, if an employee is employed as a first responder and if the impairment causing the stress, mental injury, or mental illness is medically diagnosed as post-traumatic stress disorder arising from the first responder's direct involvement in a significant traumatic experience or situation, without regard to whether the experience or situation was extraordinary or unusual in comparison to the normal working conditions of a first responder's employment.
(D) Stress, mental injuries, heart attacks, strokes, embolisms, or aneurisms arising out of and in the course of employment unaccompanied by physical injury are not considered compensable if they result from any event or series of events which are incidental to normal employer/employee relations including, but not limited to, personnel actions by the employer such as disciplinary actions, work evaluations, transfers, promotions, demotions, salary reviews, or terminations, except when these actions are taken in an extraordinary and unusual manner.
(D)(E) Stress, mental injuries, and mental illness alleged to have been aggravated by a work-related physical injury may not be found compensable unless the aggravation is:
(1) admitted by the employer/carrier;
(2) noted in a medical record of an authorized physician that, in the physician's opinion, the condition is at least in part causally-related or connected to the injury or accident, whether or not the physician refers the employee for treatment of the condition;
(3) found to be causally-related or connected to the accident or injury after evaluation by an authorized psychologist or psychiatrist; or
(4) noted in a medical record or report of the employee's physician as causally-related or connected to the injury or accident.
(E)(F) In medically complex cases, an employee shall establish by medical evidence that the injury arose in the course of employment. For purposes of this subsection, 'medically complex cases' means sophisticated cases requiring highly scientific procedures or techniques for diagnosis or treatment excluding MRIs, CAT scans, x-rays, or other similar diagnostic techniques.
(F)(G) The word 'accident' as used in this title must not be construed to mean a series of events in employment, of a similar or like nature, occurring regularly, continuously, or at frequent intervals in the course of such employment, over extended periods of time. Any injury or disease attributable to such causes must be compensable only if culminating in a compensable repetitive trauma injury pursuant to Section 42-1-172 or an occupational disease pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 11 of this title.
(G)(H) As used in this section, 'medical evidence' means expert opinion or testimony stated to a reasonable degree of medical certainty, documents, records, or other material that is offered by a licensed health care provider.

Making a brass equatorium
I’m flying to Chicago on Wednesday. There’ll be an unusual object in my luggage (is it wise to put that kind of statement online?). Yes, you guessed it: it’s another equatorium.
Loyal readers will remember my early series of posts (here, here and here) in which I described how I made, and learned to use, a medieval equatorium. Although I am no great artist, I managed to create a passable replica of the instrument described in the manuscript I'm studying. In the process, I also had to think a little about the tools and techniques that medieval craftsmen would have used.
But I didn’t learn much about materials – I made my replica out of MDF, the cheapest and most manageable material I could find in my local DIY store. So, when I arranged to speak about the equatorium at a conference in the USA, and I realised that my first replica was too big to fit in my suitcase, I decided to make another one using a more authentic – and challenging – material: brass.
The word “more” is crucial in that last sentence. When I went online, researched a few different suppliers, ordered a 360 x 400 x 1.2 millimetre sheet of brass, and paid for it using my credit card, I was hardly recreating the experience of the medieval instrument-maker. It’s important to note that even the basic material is quite different: brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, but the ratio of these two elements can vary substantially. The melting together of metallic copper and zinc, which is necessary to produce the high-zinc brass that can be rolled into thin sheets, was a seventeenth-century innovation. (Before then, copper was heated with zinc oxide and charcoal. This produced zinc gas, which diffused into the melted copper.) And of course medieval metalworkers didn’t roll their brass into sheets either – they hammered it out.
But I still felt there was something to be learned (and a prettier end result could be achieved) by working in brass.
Whereas the full-size equatorium would be six feet in diameter and my first one was half that, I had to scale it down again. In order to avoid making the calculations and measurements too complicated, I decided the easiest thing would be simply to use a 1:1 ratio of inches to centimetres. The effect is of course to reduce the dimensions by a factor of 2.54. So my new equatorium is 36 cm in diameter.
The manuscript instructions specify a face (see the earlier posts for what this is) of wood, and all that brass is expensive so I was happy enough to follow that. But the Epicycle and label (pointer) had to be cut out of brass. With only a basic hacksaw and file, this was quite a challenge, especially when it came to cutting out the semicircles from the inside of the Epicycle. Although I bought a nice new workbench and some clamps, it was still a tough job drilling the starter hole – I broke two or three drill bits during this stage of the process. (If there’s a next time, I’ll be tempted to invest in a drill press.)
Still, it was very satisfying filing the brass down to precisely the right shapes, and I’m pretty pleased with the final result:
So, what have I learned? Well, working in brass is hard! And although I’m no artisan, it must still have been hard for craftsmen in the Middle Ages, whose tools were even more basic than my cheap set. This raises a number of questions for my research. For example, does the difficulty of working in brass make it more likely that an astronomer collaborated with an artisan to make this, rather than doing it himself? Frankly, having had to make it myself, I am more sympathetic to the suggestion that this instrument wasn’t actually made in the fourteenth century… Or, at least, that it wasn’t made at full size. Working with a thin sheet of brass is hard enough when it’s a 36 cm ring, and the brass has been rolled on an industrial machine. I can’t begin to imagine how tough it would have been not only to hammer out a 72″ ring of brass, but to work with it without it bending out of shape.
It’s all fodder for future research. For now, I’m just curious to see what the friendly folk at United States customs will think of my unusual item of baggage…

Why did Derek de Solla Price come to Cambridge?
This post is cross-posted from the Connecting with Collections blog.
In a previous post I introduced one of the main subjects of my research: the historian of science Derek de Solla Price. Price, you’ll recall, was studying for his second PhD here in Cambridge when he discovered the Equatorie of the Planetis manuscript in the library of Peterhouse. As part of his research, he had what we’re calling King Arthur’s Table built at the Cavendish Laboratory.
My research has raised lots of questions about Price. These are interesting not only from a biographical point of view, but also for anyone curious about the atmosphere in which the history of science was launched as a separate discipline in Cambridge in the 1940s and 1950s. The most obvious of these questions is: why did Price, at the age of 28, suddenly decide to become a historian of science?
This was a big decision. In 1950 he already had a PhD in metal physics, and was teaching applied mathematics at the then University of Malaya, in Singapore. He was aged 28, with a wife and baby daughter. His work was going well: his boss at the University described him as “a very stimulating and helpful teacher.” But something made him give up his job and move halfway across the world. He came to Cambridge with no prospect of a job and no real idea of what he was going to do. Why?
With the help of the archives of Cambridge University and the Royal Institution, I have been able to go some way towards answering this question. Fortunately, Cambridge’s Board of Research Studies kept a file for Price, which still exists in the University archives. In addition, Sir Lawrence Bragg, who was a mentor to Price (and about whom I’ve blogged previously), kept a good deal of correspondence relating to him; this is now at the Royal Institution.
When Price was considering coming to Cambridge, the historian C. Northcote Parkinson, who was a colleague of his at the University of Malaya but had previously been a fellow of Emmanuel College, wrote to the Cambridge historian Herbert Butterfield. (Parkinson is now best remembered as the inventor of Parkinson’s Law, familiar to all students: work expands to fill the time available.) Parkinson wrote:
A younger colleague of mine here, an applied mathematician with knowledge of physics, has been taking a great interest of late in the history of science… I think his career may have suffered a little from the breadth of his interests… His work latterly has been historical and he has been fortunate in having here a complete set of the Transactions of the Royal Society…
He tells me that he means to return to England in December on the general principle that if he does not return soon he will not return at all. And he wants, if possible, to find a post as a lecturer in the history of science… So I have taken the liberty of writing to you… to ask whether there is any opportunity going for Dr Price.
Sure enough, Price did return to England in December 1950. He found a small house in Cambridge and from there wrote to A.R. (Rupert) Hall, who was the University’s only lecturer in history of science, as well as part-time curator of the Whipple collection (which did not yet have a home). Hall told Bragg about Price’s letter:
I am not quite clear what he wants, but I shall be getting in touch with him immediately. I know that he would like either a Research Fellowship or University post, but it seems to me that there is no chance of either for him at the moment here…
He would also like to work in Cambridge on a research grant, and I should be very pleased to see him here, and give him all the help I can… But it does seem to depend rather on money from elsewhere.
Bragg suspected that there might be some pressing problem that made Price want to leave Singapore, and urged Hall to investigate. Both Hall and Butterfield met with Price, who decided to submit an application to study for a PhD in early 1951. Butterfield wrote to W. J. Sartain, the Secretary of the Board of Research Studies:
He definitely gave me the impression of a person moving to the History of Science as a result of a long-standing interest in the subject and a real internal urge. I have had many applications from people wanting to try something on in the History of Science, but on the whole I am quite prepared to believe that Mr. Price is a person we ought to observe and take care of.
Finally, it’s worth quoting Price’s own words, in his application statement:
The subject of the research that I desire to pursue is “The History of Scientific Instrument Making”… Recent developments in the History of Science have clearly indicated the important role of changes in accuracy and design of instruments in the advancement of scientific knowledge…
My professional work as a physicist and my teaching experience have given me a rather wide acquaintance with the use and construction of scientific instruments, and it is this knowledge that I propose to use in the assessment of accuracy and design of early instruments.
So, contrary to Bragg’s suspicions about professional problems, or fear about political upheavals in Malaya, it was a simple case of an unfulfilled passion. (Of course there’s certainly more to say about Price’s implicit assumption that scientific knowledge and experience were the most important attributes in charting the apparent linear progress of the sciences.) Price certainly showed his passion when he started his studies in Cambridge, wasting no time in making a name for himself. He was, of course, to go on to become a successful academic and celebrated analyst of the growth of science.

‘it’s time to decide’- LP presidential candidate, Peter Obi
Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has told Nigerians that it is time to make up their minds on whom to cast their votes for.
Obi, in tweets on Monday morning, said those sitting on the fence need to decide now who will lead them and not waste the opportunity.
Adding that the “elders” have failed us, the LP candidate said, “Those of us born after independence must now be given the opportunity to reshape the destiny of this nation.
“We are down the stretch with 12 days to go. I have a message for Nigerians, especially those that are sitting on the fence; It is DECISION TIME.Shot During
“Every nation has significant moments in their history –when a situation arises, which requires that nation to take specific steps that would mark her turning point. Nigeria is at that historical junction
“How we have done as a nation is no longer in debate. We have done poorly due to bad leadership. We must now seize this moment. We must save Nigeria now or never.
“Twelve days from now we will be called upon to make very hard choices. It won’t be about tribe or religion; it won’t be about traditional sentiments of my turn. It will be about national Interest.”

Nigeria Does Not Need More Political Parties – Party Chieftain
The National Vice Chairman (North-West) of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Salihu Moh. Lukman, has expressed confidence that the party’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, will win this year’s election.
According to him, the support shown by people during the APC presidential campaign rally in the North-West indicated the party’s success in the region and victory in the coming elections.
Lukman pointed out that the North West has always been the determining factor for presidential candidates to win elections in the country.
A statement issued on Sunday by Lukman explained that Kebbi State APC Presidential Rally on Saturday, February 11, 2023, concluded the phase of the APC presidential campaign rallies in all the seven states of the North-West.
He explained, “We want to thank all our people and re-affirm the commitment of our party, our leaders and all our candidates to continue to provide honest, sincere and responsive leadership. In particular, we want to thank and congratulate all our party leadership at levels in the North-West Zone for the hard work and maintaining a united front throughout this phase of the campaign. We want to also commend and appreciate all our party members and supporters for coming out in mass to all campaign rallies.”
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said that election will not hold in 240 polling units across the country, barely 12 days to the general election,
The nation’s electoral body noted that the 240 polling units, which are without registered voters, cut across 28 States of the Federation and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
The chairman of INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, who disclosed this at a meeting with Political Parties in Abuja on Monday, explained that no new registrant chose the polling units and no voter indicated interest to transfer their registration to them during the last Continuous Voter Registration (CVR), mainly for security reasons.
According to him, “There are 240 polling units without registered voters spread across 28 States and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
“They range from one polling unit to 12 polling units in each State and the FCT, except Taraba and Imo States with 34 and 38 polling units respectively.
“No new registrants chose the polling units and no voters indicated interest to transfer to them during the last Continuous Voter Registration (CVR), mainly for security reasons. This means that no elections will hold in these polling units.”
He recalled that in 2021, with the support of parties and other critical stakeholders, the Commission successfully expanded voter access to polling units 25 years after the last delimitation exercise in 1996.
Buying PVCs Won’t Help Any Politician – INEC
Consequently, he said the number of polling units increased from 119,973 to the current figure of 176,846.
“At previous meetings, we also briefed you on our efforts to redistribute voters to the polling units to avoid the congestion that made voting cumbersome in many of them nationwide.
“This requires the redistribution of voters to new polling units in proximate locations. Where they are separated by distance, this must be done after consultation with the voters. This has been done by our State offices nationwide,” he said.
He said in its avowed commitment to transparency, the Commission was making available to Nigerians a comprehensive list of the polling units by name, code number, and their locations by State, Local Government and Registration Area.
With this development, he said the number of polling units where elections will hold nationwide on 25th February 2023 and 11th March 2023 is now 176,606.
“Hard copies of the list are included in your folders for this meeting. Above all, Nigerians deserve the right to know the locations of these polling units. Accordingly, the soft copy of the list has been uploaded to our website and social media platforms for public information and guidance.
“Closely related to the distribution of voters is the identification of polling units. From the feedback we received from our officials and accredited observers following the recent nationwide mock accreditation using the BVAS, it is clear that some voters could not easily identify their polling units.
“This should not happen on election day. Consequently, the Commission is advising voters to confirm the locations of their polling units through a dedicated portal on our website. In addition, all voters who have been assigned to new polling units will receive text messages from the Commission indicating their polling units.
“We have also compiled the register of such voters and our State offices will give it wide publicity, especially for those who may not have provided their telephone numbers during voter registration or those whose numbers may have changed,” he added.
Speaking further, he said voters can locate and confirm their polling units before election day by sending a regular text or WhatsApp message to a dedicated telephone number.
He said details of the simple procedure will be uploaded to INEC social media platforms shortly.
“As you are already aware, we have less than two weeks to the 2023 General Election. The Commission is finalising the issuance of 1,642,386 identification tags for the Polling and Collation Agents nominated by the 18 political parties made up of 1,574,301 Polling Agents and 68,085 Collation Agents.
“I urge the Chairmen and leaders of political parties to ensure that only agents accredited by the Commission and wearing the correct identification tags appear at polling units and collation centres during elections.
“A situation where two or more agents claim to represent a political party, resulting in commotion at polling units or collation centres, is unacceptable. Only Identification tags issued by the Commission will be recognised on election day and violators are liable to arrest and prosecution for impersonation.
“Turning to the ongoing electioneering campaigns, the Commission is concerned about violent attacks on supporters of political parties across the board, resulting in the loss of life in some cases. Let me once again appeal to Chairman and leaders of political parties to continue to call your candidates and supporters to order,” he said.
On his part, IPAC national chairman, Engr. Yabagi Yusuf Sani, reiterated the continued commitment of IPAC to the long-standing cooperation and mutually beneficial relationship between the IPAC and INEC.
He also reaffirmed the confidence of IPAC in the leadership of INEC for its consistent demonstration of diligence, uncommon zeal, and patriotism in the pursuit of the agency’s statutory mandate.
He said at it has always been in the past, IPAC and INEC will be coming away from the meeting more prepared to face the onerous historical challenge of conducting credible, transparent, and acceptable elections in 2023.
“On the basis of our evaluation that INEC has been well on track, the leadership of IPAC additionally wishes to use this occasion to commend, the efforts of INEC in confronting the extraordinary environmental challenges occasioned by naira redesign and fuel scarcity through Mr. Chairman’s visit to the relevant agencies
“Usually, Siamese twins needed to be in constant agreement to enable them to live together harmoniously. Also, it is said that a case that is discussed does not usually cause trouble.
“It is on this philosophical note that I want to thank INEC and her Commissioners for constantly calling us to rub minds together because of the Nigerian political project.
“By what we hear and read in the news, your mock accreditation exercise was a success. That is very encouraging. As we know, a mock examination cannot be taken to be the real examination whose coverage is wider and complex.
“So far, the BVAS that were used were reported to have performed perfectly. We are encouraged by this and also wish to appreciate INEC while expecting them to keep the flag of perfection flying,” he stated.
Similarly, he said the Electoral Institute conducted a train-the-trainer workshop for polling agents/collation officers recently.
He said the move is commendable but the Parties are trying to meet the challenges of lean resources to cascade the training down to other critical levels.
“The 2023 general elections seemingly will be a watershed in the history of elections in Nigeria. Today, the tide has changed, because an unknown Party could pull a surprise to the greatest chagrin of all. From this point of view, it is necessary to advise INEC to keep its date with history which must not be wasted.
“INEC should create a golden niche for herself especially the Chairman who has become the child of history, Nigerians are watching, the international community is watching and the Parties are palpitating: I, therefore call on all Nigerians of good conscience to take credible results of the election the way it is.
“At worse. Parties should resort to the law court for adjudication Today it is an abhorrence and crudity if not savagery to see States Governors denying campaign venues to political parties other than their own. This is crude, primitive, and uncivilized.”
He also admonished party leaders that have observed that the elections are conducted free, fair, and credible, the result should be accepted for the love of our country.
“Mr. Chairman, under no circumstances should this election be postponed! Having noted this, I wish to congratulate all the Parties for patting up the healthy campaigns while thanking INEC with great expectations to deliver a credible election,” he added
Why Epe indigenes should vote for Hon. Noheem Balogun
By: Balogun Ibrahim
The talent of the man who becomes the House of Representative, Epe Constituency is of the essence. We don’t need a passive representative but an energetic and assertive one. Noheem Balogun is not only supremely qualified but uniquely qualified to engage in the art of representation. The young man has a mind of his own. He has expressly stated that under his representative, as the House of Representative for Epe federal constituency, nobody will monopolize initiative and decision on major policy issues. Again, the structure of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is more cohesive, more uniform in experience, and more single-mindedly accustomed to thinking in terms of the betterment of the society. The party is unlike the APC, which is constantly resisting innovation and bureaucratically conservative.
I acknowledge Balogun’s remarkable qualities, his coherent views, his cool, hard to ruffle temperament and his near faultless campaign organization. He has promised to create new jobs and lay a new foundation for growth and development of the constituency. He has promised to bring lights, jobs and good roads, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. He has also promised to transform our schools to meet the demands of a new age. I have faith in him that he will perform as promised. Balogun is passionate about Epe division and that means a lot. It will be appreciated everyone to vote for this great philanthropist. The Igbo and Hausa communities in the division, have also urged Igbos and Hausas to vote for PDP. “Conventional wisdom dictates that Igbo and Hausa should do the bidding of their hosts who have an PDP leader Abubakar Atiku, as presidential candidate, who must not be embarrassed. Besides, it is in Igbo and Hausa core and vital interest to massively vote for PDP House of Representative candidate, Balogun”
Indeed, Noheem Balogun was born in Epe to the family of Mr. Musiliu and Madam Taibat Balogun (both late), but of Oke-posu and Oke-balogun areas of Epe respectively. After his primary education, he proceeded to Epe Grammar School, Epe where he obtained his West African School Certificate (WASC) in 1981. He holds a Bachelor of Science (Cum Laude) degree in Criminal Justice from Michigan State University, East Lansing, Michigan, USA.
Balogun also possesses a Master of Science degree in Computer Cyber Security from American Military University, Charles Town, West Virginia, USA. He is a Ph.D in view in Computer Information Security at Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana, USA. He is also a certified Microsoft system Engineer and a Siebel Oracle developer. His career trajectory made him through various executive capacities as Communication Officer at Elder Dempster Co, Nigeria Limited; senior Cyber Security consultant at AT&T, USA, Senior Software Developer at IBM Corporation, USA. In fact, he held these responsibilities before venturing into private business. He is currently, President/CEO, Abifoley Co. Nigeria, Limited, Abbey ventures Limited and Abifoley systems, Atlanta Georgia, USA.
Balogun has the capacity and what is even take to lad us, we must not forget that APC has caused us so much pain and havoc. We have nothing to show for voting for them over the years. We need a division, Epe federal constituency that works because we live and work here. A lot developmental ongoing in the Epe division courtesy “Noheem Balogun” with his personal resources and promising that they are going to see more if elected into the House of Representative. He was nicknamed ‘Imole Dee’ after provision of light to the division after sixteen years of darkness in the division.
The Media Adviser to Hon. Noheem Balogun, Yomi Agabje disclosed that the man has helped his constituents in many ways, especially through provision of good jobs to his followers and others, without or irrespective of political affiliation and those be given jobs were doing wonderfully well in their respective place of works and “they are all dynamic and outstanding performers in their own right. Each is different from the other and each and they are excels in its own unique way. This means that Balogun is not orchestrating them into some limited uniformity but stands out of the way for them to lead as they believe. No major politician in Epe division has a track record as good as Balogun’s when it comes to supporting able people for office and securing jobs for the masses. Nowhere in APC members does this in Epe division, including present House of Representative, Mr. Wale Raji.
Sorry, for that little bit digression, Noheem Balogun political journey began with his office as a Youth leader in the defunct National Party of Nigeria (NPN), he held the same capacity in National Advance Party (NAP) founded by the late political icon, Dr. Tunji Braithwaite. He was an active member of Social Democratic Party (SDP) during the failed democratic dispensation of the early 90s, currently, he is a staunch member of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on whose platform he is seeking position of House of Representative at the National Assembly, lower chamber, to represent Epe federal constituency in the 2023 general elections.
Noheem Balogun, is a consummate philanthropist, which he has demonstrate to be a good leader through provision of social amenities for the people of Epe division that even surpassed the current occupier of the position he is seeking, he has provided over 100 solar streetlights to communities in the division, construction of drainages and culverts to the needed communities and drilling of drinkable boreholes for the communities with his personal resources and without bias and political party, even those commitment was born out of passions for the love he has for his communities and his constituency, Epe division, till date he still continue the good job.
He has promised to revitalize the fortune of cottage industries in Epe division, because all these industries had been moribund, including Plywood Industry, the Oodua industrial company and others, also the fisheries parastatal had been collapsed but promising to rejig them if elected into power, also in his manifesto, he vowed to provide portable water for all, rural electrification and sustainable power supply, including better life for women and rural ones. He also promised access to affordable housing and improved healthcare facilities and better standard of living of his constituency.
The scholarship and bursary award for the students that had been jettisoned for the years, especially for the indigent students, Noheem Balogun had hinted that he is going to revisit the issue, through provision of scholarship to brilliant and indigent students at all educational levels (applicable to both indigenes and residents of Epe division), availability of bursary award to all Epe indigenes in tertiary institutions and youth empowerment through creative, innovative method and acquisition skills, also economic prosperity through entrepreneurial development and wealth creation in order to increase job and business opportunities for the people.
Also, his fostering unity in diversity through inclusion, equity and justice in his manifesto will promote unity among the youths that usually engaging in cultism activities, and his social support for the vulnerable will reduce and abate advanced beggars in the communities and among the youths and olds engaging in begging activity, he also promised improved mother and child medicare, which our mothers,sin grandmother and great grandmother will have access to medical attention, and provide drugs and prescription of drugs to them all. Also, access to startup loans and various credit facilities for traders and fishers in the division, as we are all known as custodian of fishes (Epe e’leja).
To this ends, Epe indigenes need to be very cautious, especially the electorates to look at the best candidates among those contesting for the position of authority in their respective position seeking for, so as not to vote for bad contestants, which is going to steer their post of authority for the next four years. We should look at their antecedents, what they have for us in their manifestos, what are they done for us, those in saddle right now? What have we gained from them, let’s juxtapose those things before going out en masse to vote for them.
They say, once bitten, twice shy, don’t let them becloud our reasoning with their sugarcoated campaign promises, whenever they are campaigning, they will be promising heaven on the earth, once they assumed that position of authority, nobody there near them with their security apparatus, so let’s vote wise, and vote for a pragmatic change, energetic and competent person for the House of Representative, Epe federal constituency in person of Hon. Noheem Balogun, which has the capacity and will to take Epe indigenes to the promise land.

George Richard Foerster
February 13, 1947 — May 5, 2020
George Richard Foerster has gone from this life, and move onto the next to complete his work there on May 5, 2020. He is temporarily separated from his wife, Pamela DiAnn Foerster, until they have their reunion in Heaven at a later time. His was known to anyone that knew him as Richard, and he was loved by all that met him. Richard was born on February 13, 1947 to Paul and Aleathea Foerster in Globe, Gila County, AZ. He was #8 of 9 children, of which 4 still living. He married Pearl Katherine on August 26, 1968, They had seven children, G. Adam (deceased) , R. Daniel, Paul, Evangela “Eva”, K. Elizabeth, Pearl and Victor. After he and Katherine divorced, he married Pamela on November 24, 1990, and added her 4 children, Lane, Corey, Jillian and Christina to his gaggle of children.
Richard was a man of many talents. He graduated from Globe High School in 1965, after which he met and married his first wife, Katherine. They moved to the Phoenix Area in August of 1968 so he could attend ASU for Architecture on a scholarship he was awarded. He was a member of the ROTC while at ASU. During his younger years, he worked as a Seasonal worker for the Forest Service/Firefighter (which he would delight us with stories from), land surveying, mechanic (He would work with all of us on our vehicles, so that we knew how to take care of them properly), and finally ended with 25 years with Interstate Brands delivering Dolly Madison cake. During that time he was a Seventy for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. After he Retired from Interstate Brands, he went back to Mesa Community College to pursue his Associates Degree in Drafting. He was recognized as an Honor Student at graduation.
He had many hobbies in life which include, but are not limited to, woodworking, auto repair, Landscaping design, landscaping, gardening, he was even a licensed pilot, Missionary Work, and he loved being a Temple worker and talking about some of the amazing things he loved about it. But he most loved hobby was the relationship that he and his wife, Pamela had. They had a friendship and love that is for the ages. One to aspire to have. We are very grateful for their example and love that He, and they, shared with us over the years of raising that Gaggle, and the amazing way they were able to wrangle all of us.
As Richard would say when we would depart each time, quoting the song,”Til we meet again”, Richard. May our family and friends be at peace until at that glorious day that we are back together for the eternities.

A Statement from Shaker Heights Schools
On April 25, the Cuyahoga County Grand Jury indicted Shaker Heights High School teacher Timothy Mitchell on a sexual battery charge.
Mr. Mitchell has been on paid administrative leave since February 16, when Shaker Heights Police informed us that they had launched an investigation of Mr. Mitchell after receiving a complaint. While we cannot discuss specifics of the case, we know that it involves allegations of an off-campus incident from the mid-1990s.
As soon as we learned about the complaint, we placed Mr. Mitchell on leave and instructed him to have no contact with our students or anyone else in the school community pending the outcome of the legal process. That is in keeping with our policies and procedures and the SHTA collective bargaining agreement. The District is reviewing its legal obligations given this indictment and will take any steps necessary. We have fully cooperated with police throughout their investigation.
The charges brought against Mr. Mitchell today are serious and are very troubling. Making sure our students and staff are protected is a top priority.
We want to do everything we can to ensure our students’ safety, and to nurture an open learning environment in which students feel empowered to report any and all concerns about inappropriate behavior. We encourage our students to approach an adult – a teacher, counselor or any trusted employee – whenever an uncomfortable situation arises. It is our policy to immediately report any suspicious activity to the proper authorities.
We will have counselors, psychologists, nurses and staff available for any student who needs or wants assistance. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11641 | {"url": "https://www.shaker.org/protected/ArticleView.aspx?iid=6G20PUY&dasi=2YB", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.shaker.org", "date_download": "2023-03-20T08:45:49Z", "digest": "sha1:PPS3D54WXOFN3Z6GCA5E54LPVYMILGTO"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 1677, 1677.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 1677, 3564.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 1677, 7.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 1677, 99.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 1677, 0.96]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 1677, 290.2]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 1677, 1.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 1677, 0.42760943]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 1677, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 1677, 0.02890173]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 1677, 0.00673401]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 1677, 0.10774411]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 1677, 0.62546816]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 1677, 5.1835206]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 1677, 4.83672905]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 1677, 267.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 40, 0.0], [40, 173, 1.0], [173, 497, 1.0], [497, 981, 1.0], [981, 1132, 1.0], [1132, 1564, 1.0], [1564, 1677, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 40, 0.0], [40, 173, 0.0], [173, 497, 0.0], [497, 981, 0.0], [981, 1132, 0.0], [1132, 1564, 0.0], [1564, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 40, 6.0], [40, 173, 21.0], [173, 497, 51.0], [497, 981, 78.0], [981, 1132, 25.0], [1132, 1564, 69.0], [1564, 1677, 17.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 40, 0.0], [40, 173, 0.01538462], [173, 497, 0.01904762], [497, 981, 0.0], [981, 1132, 0.0], [1132, 1564, 0.0], [1564, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 40, 0.0], [40, 173, 0.0], [173, 497, 0.0], [497, 981, 0.0], [981, 1132, 0.0], [1132, 1564, 0.0], [1564, 1677, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 40, 0.125], [40, 173, 0.09022556], [173, 497, 0.02777778], [497, 981, 0.02272727], [981, 1132, 0.02649007], [1132, 1564, 0.00694444], [1564, 1677, 0.00884956]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 1677, 0.21222782]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 1677, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 1677, 0.05480188]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 1677, -48.85326077]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 1677, 18.01991433]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 1677, -64.06541692]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 1677, 17.0]]} |
District Working to Set 2023-2024, 2024-2025 Academic Calendars
January 11, 2023—The Shaker Heights City School District is in the process of revising the 2023-2024 academic calendar, which was originally adopted in 2021.
The revisions were necessary due to recent changes in bargaining group contract terms and a restructuring of the District’s professional learning opportunities. The District has removed the calendar from shaker.org pending the updates.
The District’s Calendar Committee is working to develop calendar proposals for the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 academic years. Calendar proposals for each academic year will be released to stakeholders for feedback via a survey from January 18-January 26. The final calendars will be presented to the Board of Education at the February 14 business meeting and adopted at the May 9 meeting.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes maintained its spot as the number one movie the weekend of August 12-14, 2011, while breaching the $100 million mark. The Help was right on Apes‘ tail, but fell just short. Other new arrivals Final Destination 5, 30 Minutes or Less and Glee The 3D Concert Movie opened with whimpers.

It seems we mere humans are getting a kick out of Andy Serkis’s amazing motion-capture Apes performance. Rise of the Planet of the Apes came in first for the second weekend in a row, banking an additional $27.8 million. That puts the Apes U.S. total at $105.2 million, with $179 million banked worldwide. James Franco and Freida Pinto can likely take some credit for the big win, as well.
The Help had a strong start, trailing the Ape action by just under $2 million. With an all star cast that included the likes of Emma Stone, Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer, Bryce Dallas Howard, Sissy Spacek and Allison Janney, the female-driven book adaptation kept the other new arrivals at bay.
Of last weekend’s other new releases, Final Destination 5 premiered third and 30 Minutes or Less made the top five, but Glee The 3D Concert Movie? didn’t even place in the top ten. Even with those hefty 3D ticket hikes, the Glee movie came in 11th.
The Smurfs dropped to fourth place, but had a good weekend. The reboot crossed the $100 million mark stateside and continued to take the whole world by storm. The movie raked in $141.1 million overseas bringing the worldwide total to a Smurftastic $242.9 million and counting.
Cowboys & Aliens, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II, Captain America: The First Avenger, Crazy, Stupid, Love and The Change-Up closed out the top ten, in that order.
It’s a whole new game next weekend, with three new 3-D movies hitting theaters, including Conan the Barbarian, Fright Night and Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World. In One Day, Anne Hathaway returns to theaters as a Brit in the romantic drama.
Box Office Top Ten: August 12-14, 2011
1 Rise of the Planet of the Apes ($27.8 million)
2 The Help ($26 million)
3 Final Destination 5 ($18 million)
4 The Smurfs ($13.7 million)

Example of a currency swap and how it can help trade..
A Currency Swap is a pact between two countries that allows trading in their own currency and payments to import and export trade at pre-determined exchange rates without bringing in a third currency..
How does a Currency Swap Agreement work..??
At the start of a swap, central bank 1 sells a specified amount of currency A to central bank 2 in exchange for currency B at the prevailing market exchange rate..
Central bank 1 agrees to buy back its currency at the same exchange rate on a specified future date.. Central bank 1 then uses the currency B it has obtained through the swap to lend on to local banks or corporations..
On the specified future date that the swap unwinds and the funds are returned, central bank 1, which requested activation of the swap, pays interest to central bank 2..
While the terms of swap agreements are designed to protect both central banks involved in the swap from losses owing to fluctuations in currency values, there are some risks that a central bank may refuse, or be unable, to honor the terms of the agreement..
For this reason, lending through currency swaps is often considered to be a meaningful sign of trust between governments..
As a display of this trust between the two Governments, India and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) just signed a currency swap agreement on Tuesday the 4th December to boost trade and investment ties between the two countries..
The development came during the visit of Indian External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj to Abu Dhabi to take part in the ministerial meeting of the 12th session of the UAE-India Joint Commission Meeting (JCM) and held exhaustive discussions with Shaikh Abdullah Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, UAE’s minister of foreign affairs and international cooperation..
Raveesh Kumar, India’s external affairs ministry spokesperson tweeted
Advancing the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership EAM @SushmaSwaraj & Foreign Minister Shaikh Abdullah Bin Zayed Al Nahyan co-chaired 12th India-UAE #JCM. Held exhaustive discussions on cooperation in energy, security, trade, investments, space, defence & consular, among others
Through the currency swap agreement, both India and the UAE can make payments in their respective currency to boost and trade investment without the involvement of a third currency like dollar..
Clarifying the currency swap agreement Indian embassy in Abu Dhabi said the swap is for an amount of Dh2 billion or 35 billion Indian rupees, depending on the central bank which is requesting the amount..
As per the Indian Embassy,
The bilateral currency swap agreement between India and UAE is expected to reduce the dependency on hard currencies like the US dollar and this is also expected to give a push for the local currencies of the two nations and it may reduce the impact of volatility in exchange rates arising from dependency on a third currency. It is also expected to reduce the transmission costs arising from exchange rate risk.
Currently there are strong economic and trade ties between India and the UAE with bilateral trade standing at $52 billion (Dh190.8 billion) in 2017, with non-oil trade accounting for $34 billion.
India’s FDI into the UAE last year was $6.6 billion while the UAE’s investment in India stood at $5.8 billion.
Both the UAE and India already have currency swap agreements with major exporting countries, including China, Japan and South Korea. India has been focusing on stabilising its balance of payments positions by entering into currency swap agreements with many of its export countries, especially with oil-supplying countries..
Such agreements will also support to strengthen currencies, reduce risk, charges and possible losses in deals involving the various currencies involved.

Giving Tuesday is a national event to help promote non-profits with end of year campaigns. It occurs the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving. This year the event will be December 1st.
End-of-year giving helps charitable programs and services meet the needs of the community while it gives donors an opportunity to make a tax-deductible gift before the end of the year.
The Shoals Community Clinic will also be conducting its 2nd Annual “Thank-a-Thon” on that same day. Use this link to make an online donation to the clinic and receive a personal thank you for the support you have shown the clinic this year. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11645 | {"url": "https://www.shoalscommunityclinic.com/single-post/giving-tuesday-2nd-annual-thank-a-thon", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.shoalscommunityclinic.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T08:49:06Z", "digest": "sha1:6PRTYA7QURFR574DCXZ4DSXSPQOGGOS4"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 606, 606.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 606, 2520.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 606, 3.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 606, 112.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 606, 0.96]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 606, 224.7]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 606, 0.42276423]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 606, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 606, 0.0203252]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 606, 0.11382114]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 606, 0.66019417]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 606, 4.77669903]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 606, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 606, 4.014]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 606, 103.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 181, 1.0], [181, 366, 1.0], [366, 606, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 181, 0.0], [181, 366, 0.0], [366, 606, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 181, 30.0], [181, 366, 30.0], [366, 606, 43.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 181, 0.00568182], [181, 366, 0.0], [366, 606, 0.00423729]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 181, 0.0], [181, 366, 0.0], [366, 606, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 181, 0.03867403], [181, 366, 0.00540541], [366, 606, 0.03333333]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 606, 0.11010015]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 606, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 606, 0.00057733]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 606, -46.24964745]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 606, 6.42172014]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 606, -19.69469766]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 606, 6.0]]} |

Arizona’s residential purchase contract form is a minimum of 9 pages. There are a multitude of blanks that must be filled in to complete it. Generally there are 3 separate parts to the contract: price, terms and conditions. The gross purchase price occupies just one line of the 473 lines in the contract. So offers to purchase are about much more than the gross amount paid that is put into a blank. There are a number of important issues which may make the difference between a successful and disastrous home sale. For example contingencies, which let the buyer get out of the deal. Generally, the fewer the contingencies the more favorable it will be to the seller, less favorable to the buyer. Closing dates and pre and post possession situations can also be crucial, and often involve thorny legal issues. Earnest money terms, especially when that deposit is non-refundable, have created much controversy and litigation. And there is much more. In short, to be able to prepare or negotiate the terms of a contract presented – both the preprinted portions and that put in the blanks, knowledge of the law and Arizona real estate procedure is necessary. Next: More than a contract is involved in a sale. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11647 | {"url": "https://www.simplysoldaz.com/theres-more-to-preparing-a-contract-than-filling-in-the-blanks/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.simplysoldaz.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:35:08Z", "digest": "sha1:IDFFCVZSJZ7ZJJG5SUQKFYQV6MW72WN2"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 1303, 1303.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 1303, 3836.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 1303, 2.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 1303, 63.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 1303, 0.96]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 1303, 276.5]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 1303, 0.42248062]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 1303, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 1303, 0.02287893]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 1303, 0.0171592]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 1303, 0.15891473]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 1303, 0.57990868]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 1303, 4.78995434]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 1303, 4.47790076]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 1303, 219.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 97, 0.0], [97, 1303, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 97, 0.0], [97, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 97, 12.0], [97, 1303, 207.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 97, 0.08235294], [97, 1303, 0.0042337]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 97, 0.0], [97, 1303, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 97, 0.07216495], [97, 1303, 0.01243781]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 1303, 0.24561095]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 1303, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 1303, 0.0137738]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 1303, -63.51703057]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 1303, 3.068702]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 1303, -34.76948385]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 1303, 14.0]]} |

Curing premature annunciation
As a science teacher, I get kind of annoyed with the media sometimes.
The misleading headlines are bad enough. I remember seeing headlines when interferon was discovered that said, "Magic Bullet Against Cancer Found!" (it wasn't), and when telomerase was discovered that said, "Eternal Life Enzyme Found!" (it wasn't). Add that to the sensationalism and the shallow, hand-waving coverage you see all too often in science reporting, and it's no wonder that I shudder whenever I have a student come in and say, "I have a question about a scientific discovery I read about in a magazine..."
But lately, we have had a rash of announcements implying that scientists have overcome heretofore insurmountable obstacles in research or technological development, when in fact they have done no such thing. Just in the last two weeks, we have three examples that turn out, on examination, to be stories with extraordinarily little content -- and announcements that have come way too early.
The first example of premature annunciation has hit a number of online news sources just in the last few days and has to do with something I wrote about a year and a half ago, the Alcubierre warp drive. This concept, named after the brilliant Mexican physicist Miguel Alcubierre, theorizes that a sufficiently configured energy source could warp space behind and ahead of a spacecraft, allowing it to "ride the bubble," rather in the fashion of a surfer skimming down a wave face. This could -- emphasis on the word could, as no one is sure it would work -- allow for travel that would appear from the point of an observer in a stationary frame of reference to be far faster than light speed, without breaking the Laws of Relativity.
So what do we see as our headline last week? "NASA Unveils Its Futuristic Warp Drive Starship -- Called Enterprise, Of Course." Despite the fact that the research into the feasibility of the Alcubierre drive is hardly any further along than when I wrote about in in November 2012 (i.e., not even demonstrated as theoretically possible). They actually tell you that, a ways into the article:
Currently, data is inconclusive — the team notes that while a non-zero effect was observed, it’s possible that the difference was caused by external sources. More data, in other words, is necessary. Failure of the experiment wouldn’t automatically mean that warp bubbles can’t exist — it’s possible that we’re attempting to detect them in an ineffective way.
But you'd never guess that from the headline, which leads you to believe that we'll be announcing the crew roster for the first mission to Alpha Centauri a week from Monday.
An even shorter time till anticlimax occurred in the article "Could the Star Trek Transporter Be Real? Quantum Teleportation Is Possible, Scientists Say," which was Boldly Going All Over The Internet last week, raising our hopes that the aforementioned warp drive ship crew might report for duty via Miles O'Brien's transporter room. But despite the headline, we find out pretty quickly that all scientists have been able to transport thus far is an electron's quantum state:
Physicists at the Kavli Institute of Nanoscience at the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands were able to move quantum information between two quantum bits separated by about 10 feet without altering the spin state of an electron, reported the New York Times.
In other words, they were able to teleport data without changing it. Quantum information – physical information in a quantum state used to distinguish one thing from another --was moved from one quantum bit to another without any alterations.
Which is pretty damn cool, but still parsecs from "Beam me up, Scotty," something that the author of the article gets around to telling us eventually, if a little reluctantly. "Does this mean we’ll soon be able to apparate from place to place, Harry Potter-style?" she asks, and despite basically having told us in the first bit of the article that the answer was yes, follows up with, "Sadly, no."
Our last example of discoverus interruptus comes from the field of artificial intelligence, in which it was announced last week that a computer had finally passed the Turing test -- the criterion of fooling a human judge into thinking the respondent was human.
It would be a landmark achievement. When British computer scientist Alan Turing proposed the test as a rubric for establishing an artificial intelligence, he turned the question around in a way that no one had considered, implying that what was going on inside the machine wasn't important. Even with a human intelligence, Turing said, all we have access to is the output, and we're perfectly comfortable using it to judge the mental acuity of our friends and neighbors. So why not judge computers the same way?
The problem is, it's been a tough benchmark to achieve. Getting a computer to respond as flexibly and creatively as a person has been far more difficult than it would have appeared at first. So when it was announced this week that a piece of software developed by programmers Vladimir Veselov and Eugene Demchenko was able to fool judges into thinking it was the voice of a thirteen-year-old boy named Eugene Goostman, it made headlines.
The problem was, it only convinced ten people out of a panel of thirty. I.e., 2/3 of the people who judged the program knew it was a computer. The achievement becomes even less impressive when you realize that the test had been set up to portray "Goostman" as a non-native speaker of English, to hide any stilted or awkward syntax under the guise of unfamiliarity.
And it still didn't fool people all that well. Wired did a good takedown of the claim, quoting MIT computational cognitive scientist Joshua Tenenbaum as saying, "There's nothing in this example to be impressed by... it’s not clear that to meet that criterion you have to produce something better than a good chatbot, and have a little luck or other incidental factors on your side."
And those are just the false-hope stories from the past week or so. I know that I'm being a bit of a curmudgeon, here, and it's not that I think these stories are uninteresting -- they're merely overhyped. Which, of course, is what media does these days. But fer cryin' in the sink, aren't there enough real scientific discoveries to report on? How about the cool stuff astronomers just found out about gamma ray bursts? Or the progress made in developing a vaccine against strep throat? Or the recent find of exceptionally well-preserved pterosaur eggs in China?
Okay, maybe not as flashy as warp drives, transporters, and A.I. But more interesting, especially from the standpoint that they're actually telling us about relevant news that really happened as reported, which is more than I can say for the preceding three stories.

Take a known topic, regurgitate it utterly, with worthless prose and rhetorical questions, a snazzy graphic, and a sinfully embellished title, and you've got yourself some "clickbait."
...and it works really well.
"Dammit" I say, audibly to myself, as I drop an article halfway through, upon realising that it will offer no new information on the subject at-hand.
If you get clicks, you get a paycheck. If we want to get rid of the avalanche of nothingarticles, the internet needs to change it's monetization schema.

A loyal Skeptophilia reader and frequent commenter sent me a reply to yesterday's post, about the office of Education Committee chair being filled by a creationist chemtrail-believer who thinks that the nation's problems would be solved if church attendance was mandatory. The message said, in toto, "I see your Sylvia Allen, and raise you a Michele Fiore," followed by a link.
The link was to a story from ThinkProgress called "Nevada Lawmaker Says Cancer is a Fungus, Recommends Simply Washing it Out." In it, we read about Michele Fiore, who has a weekly radio show, wherein we hear the following:
If you have cancer, which I believe is a fungus, and we can put a pic line into your body and we’re flushing, let’s say, salt water, sodium cardonate [sic], through that line, and flushing out the fungus… These are some procedures that are not FDA-approved in America that are very inexpensive, cost-effective.
Inexpensive and cost-effective, sure. But they aren't FDA-approved for a reason, to wit, injecting salt water and sodium carbonate into a cancer patient's pic line would have the unfortunate side effect of death. Sodium carbonate, also known as washing soda, is a strong base, and is often used in soap manufacture, taxidermy, and as a silver polish. You wouldn't want to drink the stuff, much less have it injected directly into your bloodstream.
Based on other places she's dispensed such wisdom, apparently she didn't mean sodium carbonate, but sodium bicarbonate. In other words, baking soda. Which likewise is perfectly fine for making biscuits, but is not meant to be put in a cancer patient's pic line.
If you're doing repeated facepalms over this, I haven't told you the most appalling part: Fiore served as Majority Leader of the Nevada State Assembly, and would still be in the position if not for her removal a few weeks ago (not for catastrophic stupidity, which at least would have been heartening, but for financial improprieties). Worse still, up until last month, she was the CEO...
... of a health care company.
Her company, "Always There 4 You," says on its "About" page:
Always There 4 You is a locally-owned and operated business. It has been serving the community for over 10 years. Your health and safety are secure with us. If you don't want to worry your family members or trouble them with your daily care. If you live by yourself and are either elderly or disabled, live a simpler life by getting aid from the kind and friendly staff of Always There 4 You. We are trained to help you in all sorts of areas, With our in-home healthcare, you can get help with washing, bathing, preparing meals, dressing, taking medication, and doing light housework. You'll also make great friends and companions! Make life easier on yourself by getting help from Always There 4 You.
You'll also, apparently, get "sodium cardonate" in your pic line if you get cancer.
Encouragingly, the powers-that-be seem to be on to her, because in November Fiore lost her license to provide health care, and "Always There 4 You" closed. Fiore was unrepentant, and blames the closure on harassment. "The never-ending barrage of government red tape and regulations has made being in business not worth being in business," Fiore said, showing once again her knack for articulate exposition.
Oh, but you'll never guess what else! She's also in favor of murdering refugees, not only here on American soil, but anywhere in the world! She'll do it herself, in fact:
What, are you kidding me? I'm about to fly to Paris and shoot ‘em in the head myself! I am not OK with Syrian refugees. I’m not OK with terrorists. I’m OK with putting them down, blacking them out, just put a piece of brass in their ocular cavity and end their miserable life. I’m good with that.
So, think about it. You've lost your health care license, you were removed as Assembly Majority Leader because of a million dollars in unpaid tax liens, you advocate shooting innocent people in the head, and you give health advice to desperately ill people even though you apparently don't know the difference between sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate. What do you do?
You run for Congress, of course.
This is, I kid you not, a photograph from Michele Fiore's promotional 2016 calendar.
I would like to say, "Ha ha, I'm just kidding." I would like even more to say, "Oh, but don't worry, there's no way she'll get elected." But it's becoming increasingly apparent that you can be completely immoral, and also stupid to the point where it's a wonder you can walk without dragging your knuckles on the ground, and still win the majority of the votes.
So next November, keep your eye on Nevada. We might just have someone in Congress who will make Louie Gohmert look like a Rhodes Scholar by comparison.

Here in the United States, we have a fine old tradition of electing people to public office who are entirely unqualified to fulfill their duties.
Several of those have been frequent fliers here at Skeptophilia. We have Lamar Smith, who chairs the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, despite being a rabid climate change denier who gets off by finding new and creative ways to cut the budget for NASA. We have James "Senator Snowball" Inhofe, who somehow ended up in charge of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, even though he calls anthropogenic climate change a "conspiracy" and has vowed to shut down the Environmental Protection Agency. We have individuals like Michele Bachmann, Sarah Palin, Louie Gohmert, and Rick Brattin, each of whom alone would be sufficient evidence that having an IQ lower than your shoe size is not necessarily an impediment to winning a majority of the votes in an election.
In fact, I'm beginning to think that there's some kind of mathematical rule of politics in which (vote count) x (IQ) = a constant.
So I suppose it should come as no great surprise that this week, Sylvia Allen was appointed to be the chair of the Arizona State Senate Committee on Education.

Allen's been here before, too. Regular readers might recall her statement from March of this year, in which she interrupted a hearing on concealed-carry laws to offer the following puzzling insight:
I believe what's happening to our country is that there's a moral erosion of the soul of America. It's the soul that is corrupt. How we get back to a moral rebirth I don't know. Since we are slowly eroding religion at every opportunity that we have. Probably we should be debating a bill requiring every American to attend a church of their choice on Sunday to see if we can get back to having a moral rebirth.
What this has to do with concealed-carry laws, I have no idea. Probably Senator Allen doesn't, either. After all, this is the same woman who posted on Facebook that she believes in chemtrails and weather manipulation:
Ok, I do not want to get into a debate about weather. However, I know what I see weekly up here on the flat where I live outside of Snowflake. The planes usely [sic], three or four, fly a grid across the sky and leave long white trails streaming behind them. I have watched the chem-trails move out until the entire sky is covered with flimsy, thin cloud cover. It is not the regular exhaust coming from the plane it is something they are spraying. It is there in plain sight. What is it they are leaving behind that covers the sky?
Things are happening all around us that we see everyday and just don't get what it is. I think we throw the "conspiracy theory" at people when we don't understand or have the information they have so we try and explain it that way. Plus we just don't want to believe that our government would do anything terrible to us. Well, just a few examples, the IRS attack on the Tea Party, Benghazi, wire taping [sic], Fast and Furious just to name a few and we think that they would not manipulate our weather?
It almost goes without saying that she's also a creationist:
The Earth has been here 6,000 years, long before anybody had environmental laws, and somehow it hasn’t been done away with... We need to get the uranium here in Arizona, so this state can get the money from it.
And this, dear readers, is the person the Arizona Senate chose to lead the oversight of education in the state.
I keep thinking we're getting to a point where we're wising up, that we're figuring out that when we elect idiots, they (surprise!) do idiotic things. But I guess we're not done yet. Sylvia Allen, a woman who not only knows nothing whatsoever about science but is apparently functionally illiterate, is now in charge of such issues as school funding, curriculum oversight, and assessment reform for an entire state.
I'd like to end on a positive note, but I don't see one here. All I can say in conclusion is that some days, it's hard to remain an optimist. Lately, I'm more sliding over to the "we deserve everything we get" camp.

Are Offshore Financial Services Legal or Illegal?
Jan Hagen
It is important to realise that there is nothing illegal about opening and operating an offshore bank account. The reasons behind it may be illegal, but that is a different matter altogether.
In his final days in office, President Obama appeared on TV amidst the hype caused by the revelations in the Panama Papers. These papers caused global outrage, and many people identified were immediately labelled as tax evaders and criminals.
Offshore banking’s debatable reputation is largely driven by its secrecy. There are undoubtedly individuals that hide their income and wealth in offshore accounts in order to avoid or even evade paying taxes or to launder money, and offshore banks would be facilitating this if they were aware that this was going on.
More recently, Jeremy Corbyn and Clive Lewis have been targeting ‘the elite’, proposing much more stringent taxes for inheritances over £125,000. They have also targeted wealthy entrepreneurs who are managing their tax exposures as being greedy and bad, even though there is no suggestion that any illegality has taken place. This article looks at the reasons that drive politicians to target offshore activity.
Yes, there are offshore service providers that do not have adequate controls in place to stop this. Sometimes by design, but mostly because there is no legal requirement to have the same level of controls that, for example, a bank within the UK has to have in place. British taxpayers, however, still have a duty to report details of money held offshore that is liable to tax to HM Revenue and Customs.
An example of offshore services used for criminal purposes was the investigation into HSBC in 2012. HSBC was investigated by HMRC in relation to offshore accounts in Jersey for criminals living in the UK. The investigation was based on information provided by a whistleblower, who gave the tax authority a list of names, addresses and account balances. These were accounts in the names of drug dealers, cybercriminals and bankers facing fraud charges. Three years later, HSBC closed scores of accounts in Jersey.
Reasons for offshore banking
Essentially, an offshore bank is nothing more than a bank located outside the account holder’s country of residence. Offshore banking services are typically offered by banks with a presence in a low-tax jurisdiction. These banks tend to offer financial and legal advantages over domestic banking arrangements.
There are plenty of legitimate reasons for having an offshore account. When living or working abroad, holding an international bank account can make it easier to manage finances when outside the country. Also, offshore accounts are often available in multiple currencies, which can be more convenient for someone making or receiving payments in different currencies.
Clients with operations in several countries may find it more convenient and more economical to direct all of their business through one bank rather than dealing with separate institutions in a range of countries. It obviously makes sense to centralise this in a jurisdiction that is the most tax efficient. A lot of criticism has been vented towards companies that do this without actually having a physical presence in the country where they are tax domiciled. This is not illegal, but arguably it is unethical.
There are also many people who live in countries that are less politically or financially stable than the UK, and they may be worried about the security of funds held in a domestic account. An offshore banking facility offers peace of mind.
International banking facilities usually offer more flexibility so that those who need access to their money or to international financing can do so more cheaply, quickly and easily than would be possible with domestic arrangements.
There are, of course, drawbacks as well, in that accounts usually require a minimum balance and accounts are not protected in the same way as account balances are protected (up to £85,000 in the UK) via schemes such as the UK’s Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
Money laundering and tax evasion implications
So, if there is nothing illegal about offshore banking, why all the hype about how to tackle the offshore problem?
The problem is two-fold. Firstly, it’s all about income. Governments need tax income to run their respective economies, and so they are keen to stop tax evasion and persuade taxpayers to pay ‘their fair share’. Tax avoidance is not illegal, but there will always be loopholes, so governments are working hard to make it ethically unacceptable, which is easier than creating complex legislation across borders.
Secondly, offshore services often provide degrees of anonymity which makes them very attractive for money launderers and tax evaders. Obviously, this is pure criminal behaviour that has to be addressed, but it is important not to confuse this with the government’s desire to stop honest people from managing their tax obligations.
What it does mean is that an offshore account offers benefits for criminals, such as tax evaders and money launderers, so anyone wishing to open an account like this should be treated as a higher-risk client, and appropriate enhanced due diligence in relation to ultimate beneficial ownership and reasons for opening an offshore account should be thoroughly looked at.
It is, therefore, crucial that offshore services providers have adequate controls in place and that their employees are trained to a high degree in respect of recognising potential suspicious activity.

Canada to Remove COVID-19 Travel Restrictions on October 1, 2022
On Monday, September 26, 2022, the Federal Government of Canada officially announced that it would be eliminating all COVID-19 travel restrictions beginning on October 1, 2022, at 12:01 am.
However, the government stated that they reserve the right to re-impose some or all of the restrictions at a later date if the situation changes.
Travellers departing and entering Canada should be aware of the following changes that will take effect beginning on October 1, 2022, at 12:01 am:
Travellers will no longer be required to be vaccinated to enter Canada. Travellers are also not required to be vaccinated to board a plane or train within Canada.
Travellers will also not be required to be vaccinated to board a cruise ship in Canada.
Travel to the U.S.: Please note that while travellers will no longer be required to be vaccinated to enter Canada, at this time the U.S. still requires travellers to be vaccinated to enter the United States.
Pre-Arrival Testing: Travellers will no longer be required to have a negative pre-arrival COVID test prior to entering Canada, regardless of vaccination status.
On-Arrival Testing: Travellers will no longer be required to take a COVID test upon arriving in Canada, regardless of vaccination status.
In addition, random on-arrival testing for vaccinated travellers will no longer be conducted.
Cruise Ships: Travellers will not be required to have a negative pre-boarding COVID test to board a cruise ship in Canada.
Travellers entering Canada will no longer be required to quarantine, regardless of vaccination status.
Masks will no longer be required to board a plane or train within Canada and will no longer be required on planes or trains arriving in Canada from other countries.
Masks will also no longer be required in Canadian airports.
While masks are no longer mandatory, travellers are still strongly encouraged to wear masks on planes and trains to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission.
ArriveCAN
Using ArriveCAN to submit your travel information will become optional for travellers entering Canada and will no longer be mandatory.
Travellers who choose to use ArriveCAN will no longer be required to submit proof of vaccination certificates, quarantine plans or pre-entry COVID test results.
While ArriveCAN will no longer be mandatory, submitting your information through ArriveCAN in advance may expedite your entry into Canada. This feature is currently available to travellers arriving at Toronto Pearson, Vancouver, or Montréal-Trudeau international airports and will expand to the Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Billy Bishop Toronto City, Ottawa, Québec City, and Halifax international airports in the coming months.

Love is a special and complicated emotion which can be difficult to understand. Most people believe that love revolves around the heart but more modernists are starting to believe it actually occurs in the brain. Here’s a list of possible theories/explanations that I’ve come up with: Continue reading What do you make of love? | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11656 | {"url": "https://www.sociable7.com/tag/signs/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.sociable7.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:21:10Z", "digest": "sha1:DGCARD6HUHNJO5C5B7W4TWOEDRMGSYDF"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 395, 395.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 395, 3152.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 395, 4.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 395, 107.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 395, 0.93]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 395, 309.5]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 395, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 395, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 395, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 395, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 395, 0.44303797]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 395, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 395, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 395, 0.11801242]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 395, 0.11801242]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 395, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 395, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 395, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 395, 0.03726708]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 395, 0.05590062]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 395, 0.08074534]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 395, 0.01265823]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 395, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 395, 0.12658228]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 395, 0.77272727]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 395, 4.87878788]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 395, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 395, 3.84565538]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 395, 66.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 11, 0.0], [11, 42, 0.0], [42, 68, 1.0], [68, 395, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 11, 0.0], [11, 42, 0.0], [42, 68, 0.0], [68, 395, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 11, 2.0], [11, 42, 4.0], [42, 68, 6.0], [68, 395, 54.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 11, 0.0], [11, 42, 0.0], [42, 68, 0.0], [68, 395, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 11, 0.0], [11, 42, 0.0], [42, 68, 0.0], [68, 395, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 11, 0.09090909], [11, 42, 0.09677419], [42, 68, 0.03846154], [68, 395, 0.01834862]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 395, 0.36344206]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 395, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 395, 0.00218624]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 395, -33.05116801]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 395, -1.47524194]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 395, -51.94808343]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 395, 4.0]]} |
ADB, Partners Support Delivery of Clean and Reliable Electricity in Solomon Islands

The Asian Development Bank(ADB) has approved an $18 million loan and a $12 million grant to help Solomon Islands reduce the country’s reliance on imported fossil fuels for power generation through the Tina River Hydropower Project.
“This transformational project will support the development of renewable energy to supply electricity to the capital, Honiara,” said the Director General of ADB’s Pacific Department Ms. Carmela Locsin. “We look forward to working with our partners on this project to help Solomon Islands prepare for a renewable energy future.”
ADB joins other partners in supporting the Tina River Hydropower Project, including the Government of Australia, the Green Climate Fund, Abu Dhabi Development Fund, Export–Import Bank of Korea, and the World Bank Group.
The main aim of the project is to increase the generation of renewable energy on the Honiara grid. To achieve this, a 15-megawatt hydropower plant will be developed on the Tina River, just outside Honiara.
The project will be the largest public–private partnership project ever developed in Solomon Islands. A special project company, consisting of Korea Water Resources Corporation and Hyundai Engineering Corporation Limited, will be established to design, build, own, operate, and manage the plant. The company will undertake the construction of the hydropower facility through a build-operate-own-transfer scheme.
The $18 million loan will be sourced from ADB’s concessional ordinary capital resources. The $12 million grant will be provided from ADB’s Special Funds resources.
The Ministry of Finance and Treasury will be the executing agency and the Ministry of Mines, Energy, and Rural Electrification will be the implementing agency.
ADB is committed to achieving a prosperous, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable Asia and the Pacific, while sustaining its efforts to eradicate extreme poverty. In 2018, it made commitments of new loans and grants amounting to $21.6 billion. Established in 1966, it is owned by 68 members—49 from the region.

The festival Diwali is marked by this month’s new moon, which falls today, Nov 4th at 2:15pm Pacific. Most consider Diwali to commemorate the return of dharma, recorded in spiritual literature (The Ramayana) by the return of Ram to the kingdom of Ayodhya after many years of exile with his brother Lakshmana, his wife Sita, and Hanuman the monkey god, Ram’s faithful servant (who really has saved the day). The central idea in this story is the value of faith and devotion (Jai Ha | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11658 | {"url": "https://www.somapsychotherapy.com/blog/archive/2021/11", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.somapsychotherapy.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:48:13Z", "digest": "sha1:MJGLX53SERABA7FZS3UJWWKI5J3RWUZU"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 480, 480.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 480, 3142.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 480, 1.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 480, 127.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 480, 0.97]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 480, 224.0]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 480, 0.37254902]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 480, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 480, 0.04699739]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 480, 0.05744125]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 480, 0.15686275]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 480, 0.75]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 480, 4.55952381]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 480, 3.95106847]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 480, 84.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 480, 84.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 480, 0.00858369]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 480, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 480, 0.03541667]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 480, 0.26696378]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 480, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 480, 0.10407883]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 480, -23.88258733]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 480, 4.95858215]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 480, 2.44431718]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 480, 3.0]]} |

Biden and House Democrats chart a 2024 course based on their legislative track record
Drew Angerer
Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester speaks with Rep. Abigail Spanberger ahead of President Biden's speech during the annual House Democrats Issues Conference in Baltimore, Md.
President Biden and House Democrats are mounting a full-court press to take their legislative record on the road and into districts across the country to remind voters of what they've already accomplished. Their hope: flip the handful of seats needed to regain control of the chamber next year.
"If we did nothing — nothing — but implement what we've already passed and let the people know who did it for them, we win," Biden said during an energetic speech Wednesday as House Democrats kicked off their annual three-day retreat in Baltimore.
The reality of divided government means it's unlikely Democrats will pass any major legislation, forcing them to instead go on the defensive and tout the legislation they've already passed.
"Folks, you all know how much we've gotten done, but a lot of the country still doesn't know it," Biden said. "That's why the big job in front of us is implementing the laws we passed, so people start to see it in their lives — all the benefits that are there because you produced it for them."
Biden ticked through a list of legislative accomplishments, including the $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill, the first major gun safety legislation passed by Congress in nearly 30 years, legislation to boost the domestic manufacturing of semiconductor chips and a sweeping climate, health care and tax bill.
"We just have a buffet of accomplishments to offer, and he just rolled them out in such a way that it can really resonate with the everyday person," Ohio Rep. Shontel Brown told NPR.
Biden pledged to coordinate with members to effectively message legislative wins
"You tell us what you need to help us understand the impact that it's having on all of your district and your folks, and we're going to get it done," Biden said.
Although Biden hasn't officially announced his reelection bid, it's widely expected he will seek another term, which means his fate and those of House Democrats are likely tied together.
That means what members ask of the administration will vary from district to district depending on the president's popularity.
"It may be a lower-level official that's coming in talking about 'let's have a roundtable with your town officials to talk about how to apply for rural broadband funding.' It may not be having the Cabinet or the president in your district every other week," New Hampshire Rep. Ann Kuster told NPR.
Kuster, who said she lives in "purple world," said members have been in close talks with Cabinet officials and the White House about how to work together to make intricate legislation like the infrastructure bill accessible to their constituents.
"How do you make that real; how do you tell that story?" she mused. "It's by working together, having Cabinet members and officials from the government come to our districts."
As an example, she points to visits in her district from Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg showing new bridges under construction and White House infrastructure coordinator Mitch Landrieu highlighting a new interstate interchange.
"Those are the kinds of stories that people stop to think 'Oh, I have a better commute' or 'Oh, I'm working from home because I have better internet service.' And we're making that connection to your precious tax dollars, hard at work making a difference in your life."
Democrats want to get credit for "shovels in the ground" and "cranes in the air"
During his speech, Biden brought out a mock-up of a sign for an infrastructure project in Baltimore to rebuild a tunnel. At the top in all caps are the words "President Joe Biden."
"We're going so far as to print signs to let people know who is bringing this project and why it's happening," he said to applause.
Brown said this is all part of the strategy to keep the impact of Democrats' votes in Washington top of mind for their constituents.
"As we start to see more shovels in the ground, as we start to see more cranes in the air, we can start to point to that and say, 'Hey, that's what Democrats did for you,' " she said.
Democrats in Baltimore repeatedly talked about the need to make sure their constituents know who voted — and didn't vote — for federal dollars on infrastructure.
"We continue to draw the contrast with Republicans who voted 'no' but want to take the dough," said Texas Rep. Veronica Escobar. "I am already seeing a number of my Republican colleagues who voted against these historic pieces of legislation want to claim credit. We can't let that happen."
Democrats have unity on their minds
The degree of unity among House Democrats was in stark contrast to last year's retreat.
"We were right in the midst of one of the more challenging political debates and discussions about strategy and timing," Kuster said. "Now, those battles are behind us — we have come out the other side. And now we're having wonderful conversations about how to help the American people in their day-to-day lives."
She underscored: "One thing that's been really nice this session is there's just tremendous unity."
Part of that unity is aimed at opposing what members call "an extreme Republican agenda." Another element is uniting around Biden himself.
Washington Rep. Pramila Jayapal, who chairs the Congressional Progressive Caucus, said the group is preparing an "executive action agenda" to present to the president following their own retreat.
Jayapal told reporters that while "nobody is surprised that Biden was not my choice in the first election for the primary," the CPC and the administration have formed an "incredibly strong partnership."
"I think he's the most progressive president we've had in a long time," she added.
Although most of the conference was marked by strong support of the president, there was a brief interruption on Thursday, when news of Biden's decision not to use his veto power to block a GOP-effort to repeal D.C.'s new crime law broke during a press conference with the Congressional Black Caucus.
"This is news to me and I'm very disappointed," said Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton of D.C.

Q&AExplain "ándale" and "vámanos"
Explain "ándale" and "vámanos"
What are the grammatical explanations for the expressions "ándale" and "vámanos"? What verbs to they come from? and why are they formed the way they are?
posted by Sofia2010
Andar and ir. They are both the imperatives of those verbs. "Go on!", "Let's go!", "Hurry up!". Extremely common.
Oh, and le and nos are the pronouns meaning you and us. These pronouns are often attached to the ends of imperatives.

Thanks! Also, why is "le" attached to "ándale" instead of "te" if you're talking to someone familiar? - Sofia2010, JUN 9, 2010
"Ándale" it's like saying: "Come on!!!"
and "Vámonos" means "let's go"

Protect Your Family with Professional Smoke Detector Installation
Safety is a big deal when it comes to your electrical system, which is why every electrical system should include a good smoke detector system. Smoke is the first sign of fire, so a smoke detector can tell you when your home or business is catching fire before the fire gets out of hand. Not only can this save you tens of thousands of dollars, it can also save lives.
The best part about smoke detectors is that they’re fairly inexpensive and relatively easy to install. The electricians at Mister Sparky of Wilmington are experts when it comes to smoke detectors, which means we can help you find the best product for your needs and get it installed right. Not only do we work with top brands to bring you the best smoke detectors and other products, our commitment to quality craftsmanship means you never have to worry about a rushed job causing problems with your smoke detector down the line.
Professional Smoke Detector Installation
The fact of the matter is, smoke detectors are pretty easy to install in your home. Despite how simple they are, however, smoke detectors are also one of the most important safety features in your home. Because of this, you can’t afford to DIY a smoke detector installation or hire an electrician who doesn’t know what they’re doing. You need your smoke detector to be working every second of every day, because you never know when there’s going to be a fire.
The smoke detectors you find at your local department store will get the job done, but they’re simply not as reliable. You have to change the batteries in most smoke detectors to keep them operational, which can be a huge problem for some people. With professional smoke alarm installation from Mister Sparky, you never have to worry about whether or not your smoke detector is working because we can wire it right into your electrical system.
Here are some of our most popular smoke detector services in the Wilmington, NC, area:
Smoke detector battery testing and replacement

Quality Smoke Detectors
Mister Sparky of Wilmington, NC is committed to helping you keep yourself, your family and your home safe in the event of a fire. This is why we have a huge selection that includes some of the very best smoke detectors on the market. If you’re looking for a simple battery-powered smoke detector, we can make sure you get a top-notch product that ensures your safety and is built to last.
For some people, an interconnected smoke detector system is the best way to go when it comes to safety. If you live in a larger home where you might not hear a smoke detector if it’s only going off in one room, having an interconnected system could be a life saver. With interconnected smoke detectors, the alarms in all the rooms can go off at once to let you know there’s a fire as soon as possible.
Since we only install smoke detectors from the best brands, you never have to worry about quality when you make Mister Sparky your go-to source for smoke detector services.
Do I Need a New Smoke Detector System?
If you’ve already got a few smoke detectors scattered around your home, you may be wondering why you would want to have a new smoke detector system installed. Whether your smoke detectors are old, or you simply didn’t invest a lot of money in them in the first place, upgrading to a new system can help keep you and your family safer.
For business owners, having an updated smoke detector system is even more important. Commercial property can be extremely expensive, plus some businesses often have hundreds of customers inside at once. The last thing you want is for a fire to break out that can’t be contained in its early stages. Fortunately, a good smoke detector system (especially when you pair it with sprinklers) can help keep your business from going up in flames.
The bottom line is, smoke detectors are a crucial part of your day-to-day safety whether you have them at home or at your business. If your smoke detectors are getting a little old, your alarm system is failing tests or there’s some other problem, have an electrician from Mister Sparky set you up with a new smoke detector system. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11662 | {"url": "https://www.sparkywilmington.com/products/smoke-detectors/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.sparkywilmington.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:32:25Z", "digest": "sha1:5ER65ANAEVX7B3HDS6N33LUAXRSIWS2W"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 4380, 4380.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 4380, 5235.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 4380, 20.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 4380, 62.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 4380, 0.94]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 4380, 264.5]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 4380, 0.50291036]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 4380, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 4380, 0.05319448]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 4380, 0.02026457]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 4380, 0.08415424]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 4380, 0.04278075]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 4380, 0.01097664]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 4380, 0.00465658]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 4380, 0.09662398]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 4380, 0.35092348]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 4380, 4.68733509]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 4380, 4.94540533]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 4380, 758.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 66, 0.0], [66, 435, 1.0], [435, 965, 1.0], [965, 1006, 0.0], [1006, 1466, 1.0], [1466, 1910, 1.0], [1910, 1997, 0.0], [1997, 2044, 0.0], [2044, 2114, 0.0], [2114, 2178, 0.0], [2178, 2209, 0.0], [2209, 2247, 0.0], [2247, 2271, 0.0], [2271, 2660, 1.0], [2660, 3062, 1.0], [3062, 3235, 1.0], [3235, 3274, 1.0], [3274, 3609, 1.0], [3609, 4049, 1.0], [4049, 4380, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 66, 0.0], [66, 435, 0.0], [435, 965, 0.0], [965, 1006, 0.0], [1006, 1466, 0.0], [1466, 1910, 0.0], [1910, 1997, 0.0], [1997, 2044, 0.0], [2044, 2114, 0.0], [2114, 2178, 0.0], [2178, 2209, 0.0], [2209, 2247, 0.0], [2247, 2271, 0.0], [2271, 2660, 0.0], [2660, 3062, 0.0], [3062, 3235, 0.0], [3235, 3274, 0.0], [3274, 3609, 0.0], [3609, 4049, 0.0], [4049, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 66, 8.0], [66, 435, 70.0], [435, 965, 91.0], [965, 1006, 4.0], [1006, 1466, 82.0], [1466, 1910, 76.0], [1910, 1997, 15.0], [1997, 2044, 6.0], [2044, 2114, 8.0], [2114, 2178, 7.0], [2178, 2209, 4.0], [2209, 2247, 5.0], [2247, 2271, 3.0], [2271, 2660, 71.0], [2660, 3062, 77.0], [3062, 3235, 29.0], [3235, 3274, 8.0], [3274, 3609, 62.0], [3609, 4049, 73.0], [4049, 4380, 59.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 66, 0.0], [66, 435, 0.0], [435, 965, 0.0], [965, 1006, 0.0], [1006, 1466, 0.0], [1466, 1910, 0.0], [1910, 1997, 0.0], [1997, 2044, 0.0], [2044, 2114, 0.0], [2114, 2178, 0.0], [2178, 2209, 0.0], [2209, 2247, 0.0], [2247, 2271, 0.0], [2271, 2660, 0.0], [2660, 3062, 0.0], [3062, 3235, 0.0], [3235, 3274, 0.0], [3274, 3609, 0.0], [3609, 4049, 0.0], [4049, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 66, 0.0], [66, 435, 0.0], [435, 965, 0.0], [965, 1006, 0.0], [1006, 1466, 0.0], [1466, 1910, 0.0], [1910, 1997, 0.0], [1997, 2044, 0.0], [2044, 2114, 0.0], [2114, 2178, 0.0], [2178, 2209, 0.0], [2209, 2247, 0.0], [2247, 2271, 0.0], [2271, 2660, 0.0], [2660, 3062, 0.0], [3062, 3235, 0.0], [3235, 3274, 0.0], [3274, 3609, 0.0], [3609, 4049, 0.0], [4049, 4380, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 66, 0.10606061], [66, 435, 0.00813008], [435, 965, 0.01132075], [965, 1006, 0.09756098], [1006, 1466, 0.01521739], [1466, 1910, 0.01126126], [1910, 1997, 0.04597701], [1997, 2044, 0.0212766], [2044, 2114, 0.01428571], [2114, 2178, 0.015625], [2178, 2209, 0.03225806], [2209, 2247, 0.02631579], [2247, 2271, 0.125], [2271, 2660, 0.01799486], [2660, 3062, 0.00746269], [3062, 3235, 0.01734104], [3235, 3274, 0.17948718], [3274, 3609, 0.00597015], [3609, 4049, 0.00909091], [4049, 4380, 0.01208459]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 4380, 0.63425052]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 4380, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 4380, 0.02762198]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 4380, -186.84640697]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 4380, 36.55417363]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 4380, -404.26422996]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 4380, 29.0]]} |
SRU Performing Arts & Lecture Series presents Maureen McGovern, March 21
SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. — Superstar Maureen McGovern, described as "sophisticated one moment, gutsy the next, and always pitch perfect," will perform at 7:30 p.m., March 21, in the University Union as part of Slippery Rock University's Performing Arts & Lecture Series.
McGovern has earned numerous Grammy nominations and an Oscar-winning No. 1 gold record. Her concert includes music by Paul Simon, Carole King, James Taylor, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell and other musical icons of the '60s and '70s, as well as Irish melodies in honor of St. Patrick's Day. McGovern will be joined by the SRU Concert Choir for several songs. The New York Times has called McGovern's vocal technique "second to none."
A recording artist and Broadway performer, McGovern first came to fame with her Oscar-winning song, "The Morning After," from the movie "The Poseidon Adventure." The song also garnered her first Grammy nomination for "Best New Artist." Her solo album "The Pleasure of His Company," with Emmy- and Grammy-winning jazz pianist Mike Renzi, earned her a second Grammy nomination for "Best Traditional Pop Vocal." In 2005, she was a featured guest artist on the Grammy-winning "Songs from the Neighborhood: The Music of Mister Rogers."
General admission tickets for all performances are $22 for adults; $20 for seniors (62 and older); $18 for youth (17 and younger); and $8 for SRU students.

Philadelphia Residential Property Management: Rental Collection Portal Updated
The firm’s enhanced technologies allow tenants to report maintenance concerns and communicate with property managers in real time, as well as offering several electronic rental payment channels. In addition to greater efficiency, landlords can monitor the status of their properties from all locations and on any device.
More details can be found at https://www.tcsmgt.com
TCS Property Management’s improved communication portal is designed to reduce the overheads associated with traditional property management services. In doing so, the company’s goal is to maximize the return on investment for landlords in Philadelphia and other parts of Pennsylvania.
A recent report from auction.com highlights why Philadelphia continues to be an attractive option for real estate investors. Some of the region’s advantages include a strong and diverse economy, a stable job market, and ongoing population growth that is driving multiple new developments.
As TCS Property Management explains, many investors live outside the city, creating a demand for cost-effective management services that require minimal input. The firm’s enhanced landlord and tenant portal meets the needs of both local and interstate clients, allowing full oversight of each property’s status, while also enhancing the experience for tenants.
“Single-family homes, individual condominium rental units, and small multifamily dwellings are our core focus and what we excel at,” a company representative explained. “We embrace old-fashioned principles of service while using state-of-the-art tools. Tenants gain greater levels of convenience, while landlords can monitor what’s going on behind the scenes at any time.”

About TCS Property Management
The company’s adoption of advanced technologies was recently recognized by Expertise.com, who awarded it the “Best Property Management Company in Philadelphia” title for 2022. Along with its core service, TCS Property Management offers investment sales consultancy to assist clients in expanding their portfolio of rental or other properties.
“Born and raised in Philly, I own several rental properties in the area,” one client recently stated. “I would not have been able to keep them and run them if it wasn’t for TCS Property Management. They take care of everything for me, and the process is painless and hassle-free. I highly recommend them to anyone who has investment or rental properties.”

St. Johns County Health Dpt Death Records 1890-1920
This information provided by the St. Augustine Genealogical Society for genealogical research purposes only.
Death records from the St. Johns County Health Department, St. Augustine, Florida for 1890-1891, 1992-1910, 1913-1914, and 1916-1920. This information was transcribed by a member of the St. Augustine Genealogical Society and posted to the Rootsweb site for the Society. The name of the person who transcribed the information, the date of transcription, and the location of the original source material is unknown.
The St. Johns County Public Health Unit has death certificates beginning in 1913. If a certificate exists prior to 1913, it may be available at the Bureau of Vital Statistics in Jacksonville, although some early certificates were destroyed by fire in the early 1900’s.
Those marked with ** are from the listing of “Colored Deaths” in St. Johns County Public Health Unit.

Count Down to Sunshine. Two Days to Go.
Posted on : Tuesday, July 30, 2013 by : StayinFront
The Sunshine Act is just two days away and, by now, everyone in the pharmaceutical industry knows it. There have been flurries of last minute activity getting systems in place to capture the data, and tussles with counsel about what beans fall into what buckets and education campaigns for everyone.
The CMS estimate of $268MM for the total cost to the industry of getting ready for the Act now looks laughably small. Despite this, most companies we’ve talked to are in reasonably good shape and have already started collecting data, aligning their expense management and CRM applications and are now putting it all the systems through their paces. A small number of companies are still unprepared, but working hard to get there.
While it seems that everyone has their heads in the weeds implementing the rules and combing through their data, now might be a good time to review the reasoning behind the Act and think about the intended and unintended consequences. This post will address the intended consequences of the rules – the next post will consider some of the possible unintended ones.
The key intended effect is to reduce Medicare/Medicaid spending. CMS was very clear in their discussion of the rules that they believe the evidence shows payments from pharmaceutical companies to doctors increase Medicare and Medicaid costs because doctors that receive payments write more prescriptions. Therefore, reducing/eliminating the payments will reduce the overall cost of medicine.
That is a two step dance –
1) You have to believe that the rules will slow down payments to doctors, and
2) You have to believe that this, in and of itself, will reduce the number of expensive prescriptions doctors write.
So let’s dance the first step – Will the rules reduce payments to doctors?
Well, the anecdotal evidence (which is all we have at this point), is that doctors are absolutely starting to refuse gifts and payments from pharmaceutical companies. Our customers’ field representatives are reporting that doctors are asking questions before accepting anything of value – questions like ‘Will this be reported?’ and ‘What is it worth?’ A strong minority are just refusing gifts as a rule. Doctors, in particular, appear to be sensitive to the possible personal and professional impact of being listed in the database as taking money from Pharmaceutical companies. This may be a very short term effect with doctors taking a ‘wait and see’ position – or it may actually be a real and lasting behavioral change. So the first step – at least in the early stages – based only on anecdotal reports from the field, is that payments are going down.
The second step is less obvious. Will this really impact the prescribing habits of doctors and will that reduce medicine costs? CMS cites as their main sources the 2009 Institute of Medicine report “Conflict of Interest in Medical Research, Education and Practice.” and the recommendations of the Medicare Advisory Payment Commission (MedPAC).
The IOC report is 436 pages of assistance for insomniacs – but there are some key points about the report that should be noted – and we don’t think that it supports the view that reducing payments to doctors will necessarily reduce prescription costs.
For instance, the IOM report placed a heavy emphasis on the impact of drug samples on prescribing habits, but the Act excludes samples from expense calculations on the basis that samples are for the benefit of patients, not doctors. In general, the IOM report was not considering the impacts on costs, but whether the financial ties compromised the quality of care in any way – so it is probably not good to use its conclusions to justify a measure that is about cost reduction. Quality of care, perhaps, but costs were not the direct goal of the report. The report did support the idea that the Pharmaceutical companies are spending a lot of money on promotion – and therefore, there must be some benefit to it – but that kind of extrapolation is a weak foundation to support laws as far reaching and expensive to comply with as the Sunshine Act.
The argument that the Sunshine Act will reduce federal healthcare spending requires a number of arguments to line up successfully like dominoes – if one of them fails, the logical argument in favor of the Act fails too.
Next update will focus on possible species of unintended consequences, and how to spot them in the wild. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11668 | {"url": "https://www.stayinfront.com/blog/count-down-to-sunshine-two-days-to-go/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.stayinfront.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:39:12Z", "digest": "sha1:OFVVOCGSL4ONRPGMHHVLIWZY6J2I5PMC"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 4530, 4530.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 4530, 7896.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 4530, 17.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 4530, 137.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 4530, 0.96]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 4530, 317.8]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 4530, 0.46108491]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 4530, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 4530, 0.0108313]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 4530, 0.00812348]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 4530, 0.01137287]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 4530, 0.01895478]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 4530, 0.01179245]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 4530, 0.11910377]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 4530, 0.43626807]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 4530, 4.85282523]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 4530, 5.14371172]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 4530, 761.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 28, 1.0], [28, 68, 1.0], [68, 120, 0.0], [120, 420, 1.0], [420, 850, 1.0], [850, 1215, 1.0], [1215, 1607, 1.0], [1607, 1634, 0.0], [1634, 1712, 0.0], [1712, 1829, 1.0], [1829, 1904, 1.0], [1904, 2762, 1.0], [2762, 3106, 1.0], [3106, 3358, 1.0], [3358, 4206, 1.0], [4206, 4426, 1.0], [4426, 4530, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 28, 0.0], [28, 68, 0.0], [68, 120, 0.0], [120, 420, 0.0], [420, 850, 0.0], [850, 1215, 0.0], [1215, 1607, 0.0], [1607, 1634, 0.0], [1634, 1712, 0.0], [1712, 1829, 0.0], [1829, 1904, 0.0], [1904, 2762, 0.0], [2762, 3106, 0.0], [3106, 3358, 0.0], [3358, 4206, 0.0], [4206, 4426, 0.0], [4426, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 28, 3.0], [28, 68, 8.0], [68, 120, 8.0], [120, 420, 50.0], [420, 850, 72.0], [850, 1215, 62.0], [1215, 1607, 55.0], [1607, 1634, 7.0], [1634, 1712, 15.0], [1712, 1829, 20.0], [1829, 1904, 14.0], [1904, 2762, 144.0], [2762, 3106, 52.0], [3106, 3358, 44.0], [3358, 4206, 151.0], [4206, 4426, 38.0], [4426, 4530, 18.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 28, 0.0], [28, 68, 0.0], [68, 120, 0.13333333], [120, 420, 0.0], [420, 850, 0.007109], [850, 1215, 0.0], [1215, 1607, 0.0], [1607, 1634, 0.0], [1634, 1712, 0.01333333], [1712, 1829, 0.00892857], [1829, 1904, 0.0], [1904, 2762, 0.0], [2762, 3106, 0.01190476], [3106, 3358, 0.012], [3358, 4206, 0.0], [4206, 4426, 0.0], [4426, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 28, 0.0], [28, 68, 0.0], [68, 120, 0.0], [120, 420, 0.0], [420, 850, 0.0], [850, 1215, 0.0], [1215, 1607, 0.0], [1607, 1634, 0.0], [1634, 1712, 0.0], [1712, 1829, 0.0], [1829, 1904, 0.0], [1904, 2762, 0.0], [2762, 3106, 0.0], [3106, 3358, 0.0], [3358, 4206, 0.0], [4206, 4426, 0.0], [4426, 4530, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 28, 0.10714286], [28, 68, 0.15], [68, 120, 0.09615385], [120, 420, 0.01333333], [420, 850, 0.02790698], [850, 1215, 0.00821918], [1215, 1607, 0.02295918], [1607, 1634, 0.03703704], [1634, 1712, 0.01282051], [1712, 1829, 0.00854701], [1829, 1904, 0.02666667], [1904, 2762, 0.01048951], [2762, 3106, 0.06104651], [3106, 3358, 0.01587302], [3358, 4206, 0.01650943], [4206, 4426, 0.01818182], [4426, 4530, 0.00961538]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 4530, 0.62526119]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 4530, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 4530, 0.05893052]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 4530, -178.78882096]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 4530, 69.24611765]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 4530, -128.1167306]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 4530, 35.0]]} |
Movie Review: My Bloody Valentine (2009)
Synopsis: On Valentine's Day in 1997, Tom Hanniger forgets to vent the methane lines at his father's coal mine and causes an explosion that traps six of the miners. One of the trapped miners, Harry Warden, kills the other five to conserve oxygen and, after waking up from a 1-year-long coma, goes on a killing spree before being buried alive in one of the mineshafts. Ten years later, the long-absent Tom returns to his hometown after his father's death to sell the mine only to become a suspect when a killer dressed in a gas mask and mining attire begins a new wave of murders.
Who's in it? The movie stars Jensen Ackles, Jaime King, Betsy Rue, Kerr Smith and Tom Atkins.
Review: My wife and I both love horror films and agree this movie is one of our favorites. However, even though we've seen it multiple times, it had been a while since we last watched it and, since I figured it would be a good way to end a somewhat stressful weekend, I put it on last night. Even after seeing it for probably the dozenth time, we still enjoyed it.
There are a couple things I really like about this horror movie remake. The main one is how the movie does a great job keeping the killer's identity a secret until the very end. Tom (Ackles) seems like the most likely suspect and the movie makes sure he's always around when the killings happen. However, there are quite a few others, ranging from the local sheriff (Smith), who seems to have a vendetta against Tom (and doesn't seem like a great guy overall) and Harry Warden (Richard John Walters), who is supposed to be dead, but nobody can find his body.
In fact, even though my wife and I already knew who the killer was when we started watching, the film does such a great job with throwing in red herrings, we admittedly thought maybe we were remembering the movie incorrectly, especially at the end, when it came down to two people who both were believable as the killer, to the point I kind of wish it would have turned out to be both of them.
I am also going to admit, I liked how the movie ended in a way that set up a sequel. This isn't always the case, but this movie manages to do it without taking anything away from the film. It's just too bad there was never a second movie (at least not so far) because I probably would watch it.
Final Opinion: As I said, this is one of our favorite films and watching it again did nothing to change my mind about that. If you haven't seen this movie, you should take the time to do so.

Comeback Companies

GM: Returns From the Brink
How bad did it get at General Motors? In winter 2008, then-CEO Rick Wagoner flew to his showdown with the Senate Banking Committee in the company’s $36 million G4 jet. When asked by one senator why GM wasn’t making money, Wagoner couldn’t give a straight answer. He instead declared, “We want to continue the vital role we’ve played for Americans for the past 100 years, but we can’t do it alone.”
That wasn’t going to happen by maintaining the status quo. Gasoline was $4 a gallon, and GM’s gas-guzzling SUVs and trucks stayed parked on dealers’ lots. The company spent at rates fluctuating between $500 million and $2 billion a month—$19.2 billion from its reserves just in 2008, when it recorded a $30.9 billion loss.
GM officials said they needed another $30 billion from the government to finish their costly restructuring. Not surprisingly, the new Obama administration and its auto czar, Steven Rattner, didn’t think Wagoner and his crew were up to the task. “GM Collapses into Government’s Arms” was The Wall Street Journal headline when the company, no longer led by Wagoner, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in early summer 2009. This was the company, fueled by 25-cents-a-gallon gasoline, that held a 48 percent U.S. market share during the 1960s but fell below 20 percent by 2009.
The bankruptcy did the company huge favors by shedding crippling labor and legacy costs. Today’s GM is much leaner and more efficient than the bloated giant commanded by Wagoner. Gone are Pontiac, Hummer, Saab, Oldsmobile and Saturn. GM also has finally become the international operator it always wanted to be: The company sells more Buicks in China than in the United States.
In mid-January, GM’s return to health became a big applause line for President Obama in his 2012 State of the Union speech. “Today, General Motors is back on top as the world’s number one automaker.”
In 2011, GM sales—led by the Chevrolet Cruze (the kind of high-quality, fuel-efficient compact the company was once clueless about)—rose 13 percent, with 2.5 million cars and trucks finding new owners. GM made a $1.73 billion profit in the third quarter of 2011, and a likely $8 billion for the year.
Many factors helped GM rebound. New leadership, especially the dynamic Ed Whitacre (who reportedly reconfigured GM’s top management in four hours), freed the talented engineers and designers who had been there all along to create cars and trucks that consumers wanted. (It didn’t hurt that GM’s chief rival, Toyota, suffered from recalls, a badly handled unintended acceleration debacle, a tsunami in Japan and flooding in Thailand.)
Today, as Ward’s Auto notes, GM has learned “a new production discipline and a more sober approach to inventory management.” In other words, it no longer builds cars without buyers simply to keep open more factories than it needs; in 2005, for instance, GM had 1.3 million unsold vehicles, and to move them off lots it offered steep end-of-year discounts that wiped out any profits. Now every executive with an interest in inventory attends monthly meetings with North American President Mark Reuss, and production forecasts are revised based on shifting sales expectations. The meetings proceed with freewheeling give-and-take not previously encouraged in GM’s buttoned-down culture. Dealers now get ironclad 60-day marketing plans that replace last-minute wish lists designed to move certain products.
Sam Jaffe, an analyst with IDC Energy Insights, applauds the company’s progress as a “more flexible and nimble competitor” under current CEO Dan Akerson, a former board member and Carlyle Group money manager who took over in the summer of 2010. Whitacre could have stayed, but he missed Texas. Akerson is widely perceived as smoothly continuing Whitacre’s work, but he says the company can’t get complacent. “GM has set the foundation for a sustainable and durable recovery,” Jaffe says. “But it still faces several prominent risks. First and foremost is the impact that an oil shock might have on it.… GM North America is still top-heavy with… SUVs and trucks.”
And GM is dependent on sales in China, which could be disrupted by protectionist government policies. It’s too early to tell whether the company’s bet on the plug-in hybrid Volt will pay off, but the car symbolizes a completely different GM than the one that came calling via G4 in 2008.
GM tactics:
• Designed with attention to marketability
• Dropped product lines
• Expanded in Asia
• Managed inventory carefully
Starbucks Reclaims Its Mojo
McDonald’s likes to answer its own questions. In an online Q&A, it asks, “Why are the McCafé coffees [which include an espresso with ‘a rich, roasted flavor and chocolatey notes’] so expensive?” The answer encourages consumers to “look at similar gourmet coffees, and compare taste, size and price.” That’s a shot across Starbucks’ bow. And the “$4 is Dumb” McCafé billboards in Seattle hit close to home, too.
Competitors always go after the market leader, but Dunkin’ Donuts took aim because Starbucks was a wounded giant in late 2007. Just as Apple lost direction without Steve Jobs at the helm, Starbucks reported dismal results without Howard Schultz. In summer 2008, Starbucks posted its first quarterly loss since going public in 1992. In the fourth quarter of 2008, its profits declined 97 percent.
Clearly the company’s store-opening binge was a problem. As Harvard Business School marketing professor John Quelch put it: “Starbucks is a mass brand attempting to command a premium price for an experience that is no longer special. Either you have to cut price (and that implies a commensurate cut in the cost structure), or you have to cut distribution to restore the exclusivity of the brand.”
Starbucks closed 600 stores to cut distribution in 2008. It also cut 6,700 jobs.
And in early 2008 Schultz returned. Before his chair was warm, Schultz said he was coming back “to share with you my personal commitment to ensuring that every time you visit our stores, you get the distinctive Starbucks Experience.” He admitted many company problems were “self-induced”—not resulting from McDonald’s and Dunkin’ Donuts’ hardball tactics.
Schultz’s recovery strategy: Develop exciting new products, close underperforming stores (it had many among the 14,000 outlets in the United States) and grow internationally. He showed fanatical attention to detail. He complained in a letter to Jim Donald, the CEO he replaced, that the company’s new coffee machines blocked the customers’ views of baristas in action. And worse: The stores didn’t smell of coffee because the product was shipped in sealed aluminum bags.
Starbucks also launched the instant coffee product Via, sharpened its approach to social media, and drew in customers with more focused music offerings such as a love-themed compilation and, in 2009, an exclusive charity CD (featuring U2, Dave Matthews and John Legend) that was free with a $15 purchase at Starbucks’ North American stores.
The biggest improvement came from cutting Starbucks down to size. By the beginning of 2010, Starbucks tripled its quarterly profit to $241 million, beating expectations on the Street. Sales increased 4 percent to $2.7 billion. In the second quarter, profits were up more than eightfold, as more people visited Starbucks stores and spent more while there.
Expansion in Asia was a natural path because it has a middle class four times the size of that of the United States, or 1.4 billion consumers. The company announced it would triple its Chinese outlets, to 1,500, by 2015.
The turnaround wasn’t limited to coffee. Starbucks acquired, for $30 million in late 2011, the natural juice company Evolution Fresh, announcing its plan to reinvent the $1.6 billion super-premium juice segment. That put the chain in supermarket competition with players such as Odwalla (Coca-Cola) and Naked Juice (PepsiCo). The Wall Street Journal pronounced it “a deal that pushes Starbucks well beyond its coffee roots and shows how serious the company is about transforming itself into a consumer products player with a large presence outside its own stores.”
Schultz tells SUCCESS, “I think one of the most vital things that came out of our transformation was the confidence we gained knowing we could preserve our values despite the internal and external challenges we faced. For Starbucks, the key to our success has always been finding a balance between profitability and social conscience. It is easy to abandon ideals when a ship is sinking and just row. But our values steadied us when our stock, our reputation and our performance were all at their lowest points.
“Our belief in our purpose as a company—in the knowledge that how we do business matters to customers as well as shareholders—gave us the courage and will to turn the ship around. Values are not luxuries for prosperous times. They are necessities in all times.”
In the 12 months ended in October of last year, sales grew by 9.3 percent and net income by 31.7 percent.
Starbucks tactics:
• Closed underperforming sites
• Trimmed payroll
• Added and improved products
Whole Foods: Reborn as a Price Chopper
In 2009, Whole Foods Market suddenly found its famously meteoric growth slowing to a crawl. In the company’s annual report that year, outspoken founder and CEO John Mackey conceded the recession’s toll. “For the first time in 30 years [the chain was founded in 1980], we experienced a decline in our comparable store sales,” Mackey wrote. Average weekly sales per store decreased, too.
In late 2008, Whole Foods sold 17 percent of itself to Green Equity Investors to raise $425 million. The cash would help the company through what Mackey called “these difficult economic times.”
For many consumers, shopping at “Whole Paycheck”—with displays of perfect-but-pricey organic apples and racks of Fiji Water—became an unaffordable luxury.
Mackey further hurt the company. In mid-2007, he acknowledged that for years he’d put up anonymous postings on a Yahoo! financial forum disparaging the management of competitor Wild Oats (which Whole Foods bought that same year). And in 2009, he earned the enmity of many customers by writing an op-ed attack on Obama’s health-care plan in The Wall Street Journal.
Many longtime Whole Foods customers swore they’d take their cloth shopping bags elsewhere, and the Whole Foods website was besieged with calls for a boycott. “Here’s a thought,” wrote Brian Beutler at Talking Points Memo. “If you own a major supermarket chain that caters to a great deal of liberal-minded people with money, don’t rail against the evils of health-care reform in The Wall Street Journal.”
Mackey has been the public face of Whole Foods since its founding, so his acceptance of longtime senior executive Walter Robb as co-CEO in 2010 surprised some observers. There was at least some aspect of reducing Mackey’s role as a lightning rod there, but the decision also grew out of a culture that was and is more groupthink than traditionally hierarchical.
Dating to the 1990s, Whole Foods has had a team of five senior staff that, according to the Austin American-Statesman, has functioned “as a sort of CEO committee, collectively making decisions on strategy, finances and other company matters.” As Mackey put it, “I’ve made a valuable contribution to Whole Foods, but so have thousands of other people. That’s one of our secrets, the fact that we really do have a team approach to the organization, an empowerment approach.”
The hydra-headed Whole Foods is ginning along again. By mid-2010, the economy improved. Whole Foods reported the second quarter was its best in several years, and same-store sales went up. Sales rose 13 percent to $2.1 billion.
But Whole Foods didn’t just sit around waiting for the economy to perk up. Spokeswoman Libba Letton told SUCCESS, “We took action immediately. The first step was to regain some financial control. For instance, we suspended our dividend to shareholders, we instituted a hiring freeze, we asked people to cut out unnecessary travel, and we started to look with extreme scrutiny at expenses across the board—we cut wherever we could.”
In addition, an image makeover reinvented the store as a place for at least relative bargains. Whole Foods promoted sales and money-saving coupons, and called shoppers’ attention to 365 Everyday Value, its store-brand bargain line.
As Marketwatch’s Matt Andrejczak reported, “With a competitive focus on price, Whole Foods is shedding an image of stores teeming with snooty foodies, too expensive for anyone reliant on a weekly paycheck.”
The company also communicated the health value of its natural foods and in 2009 added “healthy eating” as its seventh core value. Whole Foods pledged awards to its 60,000 team members for maintaining good health, as measured by blood pressure and cholesterol numbers. That’s a good thing for a company that pays 100 percent of members’ health-care costs, which helps keep its workplaces happy and union-free.
Whole Foods thrives today, with fourth-quarter 2011 sales of $2.4 billion, up 12 percent from the previous quarter. Sales topped $10 billion for the year, which also saw a 38 percent rise in the stock price. The dividend is back and growing. Some 6,000 jobs were created in 2011.
The company is expanding far beyond the 186 stores it had in 2006. Whole Foods now has 317 stores, including outlets in Canada, England and Scotland. The company hopes to open 24 to 27 stores in fiscal 2012 and another 27 to 32 in 2013.
The company is definitely out of the red zone. “They have purpose and vision,” says Doug Rauch, and that’s significant coming from him—he retired in 2008 as president of fierce competitor Trader Joe’s.
Whole Foods tactics:
• Publicized less-costly products and recipes
• Froze hiring
• Reduced travel
• Promoted products’ health value
After Well-Publicized Stumbles, Two Companies Revitalize
In early 2009, The New York Times—approaching deadlines on paying down some of its $1.1 billion debt—borrowed $250 million from Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim Helú. The loan carried a 14 percent interest rate, and the paper had already agreed to borrow $225 million against its new, eco-friendly headquarters in New York and put its share of the Boston Red Sox on the block.
The Times and other printed newspapers have long faced declining advertising revenue as readers moved online. The Times operated the most widely read online newsroom in the world, but readers got the content free.
The newspaper launched digital subscription fees in early 2011, and by the end of the third quarter the paper had 324,000 paying customers, up from 281,000 at the end of the second quarter. The paper also reported a $15.7 million profit (compared to a $4.3 million loss in the third quarter of 2010). Circulation revenue also grew 3.4 percent, although total advertising declined 8.8 percent.
In a sign of returning health, the company repaid Helú’s loan more than three years earlier than expected. The company focused on its core product, which meant selling, for $143 million, its regional newspapers. To boost profitability, The Times raised prices of the Monday to Saturday printed editions by 50 cents.

The video service Netflix lost 800,000 subscribers after it decided last June to separate its DVD and streaming customers, effectively raising prices 60 percent. Gone was the $9.99-per-month plan (one DVD at a time and unlimited streaming); to duplicate that level of service would now cost $16.
Netflix claimed it was a good deal, because you could now buy a DVD-only service for $8. “[By] offering our lowest prices ever for unlimited DVD, we hope to provide a great value to our current and future DVD-by-mail members,” the company said in a news release.
Customers disagreed, and CEO Reed Hastings and CFO David Wells were forced to admit in a letter to investors, “Many of our long-term members felt shocked by the pricing changes, and more of them have expressed that by canceling Netflix than we expected.” Netflix recognized its mistakes and soon abandoned plans for a stand-alone Qwikster DVD service. But Netflix also saw its mutually agreeable content deal with Starz fall apart, which is one reason its stock lost 70 percent of its value at the end of last year.
In 2012, the company is at a crossroads. DVD and CD formats are probably doomed in favor of streaming and cloud content, but DVD mailing is where Netflix actually has made money. And Netflix faces increased competition from services as diverse as Time Warner’s HBO Go, Amazon Prime, Hulu Plus, Verizon VZ and Comcast’s XFinity on Demand. Redbox, with more than 50 million rentals a month, is also a big headache.
Netflix admits it is likely to lose money this year but has a strategy for the future by betting on exclusive content. The company will launch three series, including the revival of Arrested Development and an all-new crime comedy set in Norway.
Netflix sees a bright future overseas and has launched streaming services in Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean; it’s also attempting an ambitious expansion into England and Ireland. But it has competition, especially from Amazon’s LoveFilm, which has a plethora of content deals as well as DVD and streaming services.
Netflix hasn’t finished its comeback, but it’s trying mightily to reinvent itself in the rapidly shifting world of home entertainment. So far, it’s working. In late January, Netflix reported adding 610,000 subscribers (to 24.4 million) in the fourth quarter of 2011, nearly bringing the company back to where it was before adopting the disastrous pricing plan. Revenue increased 47 percent, and if profits fell, it’s because Netflix is spending heavily to expand overseas. And the company continues an inexorable march to streaming content.

Introduction to BIB517 Advanced Hermeneutics
Syllabus File
This three-hour graduate-level course will focus on Hermeneutics: The branch of knowledge that deals with techniques of interpreting and applying ancient writings (specifically the Bible) to today. This course is one of the five required courses at SIBIGS. The course is aimed at accomplishing the following objectives:
Define Hermeneutics,
Review and establish effective exegesis,
Develop a workable hermeneutical practice for one’s ministry context,
To have opportunities to apply sound Hermeneutics under instructor guidance and review
Disciples are tasked with following the instruction of their teacher. In the case of Christians, we are obligated to follow the word of our Teacher through the time span of thousands of years from an ancient document colored by different cultures, languages, immediate contextual issues, unique theological insights and then process what has been communicated to respond appropriately. How does one do that effectively? The answer is hermeneutics.
The task of correct biblical interpretation (hermeneutics) is a daunting one. Yet, it must be pursued. We must understand what biblical interpretation is. So, it must be defined. We must also be aware of the danger of poor interpretation and poor interpreters. So, we must acknowledge how one ought to approach the ancient text of the Bible. We must establish the best methods to biblical interpretation. So, we are obligated to become familiar with the standard rules of interpretation. Finally, we must make application of our findings. So, we must understand how to cross the bridge of meaning to make the application. We take our study and insight from then to now or as John Stott says, “Between two worlds,”
MBS517 is purposed to accomplish this task. Through this web-based course guide, the student will be challenged to understand the principles in the assigned reading and then make application through the coursework given. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11674 | {"url": "https://www.sunsetonline.org/course/view.php?id=146", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.sunsetonline.org", "date_download": "2023-03-20T10:32:35Z", "digest": "sha1:WBYON7CK6DN3X7KLKCJDSQJWBZNNIEPR"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 2176, 2176.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 2176, 3427.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 2176, 17.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 2176, 64.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 2176, 0.94]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 2176, 308.6]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 2176, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 2176, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 2176, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 2176, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 2176, 0.40153453]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 2176, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 2176, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 2176, 0.02345059]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 2176, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 2176, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 2176, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 2176, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 2176, 0.0201005]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 2176, 0.0201005]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 2176, 0.0201005]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 2176, 0.01023018]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 2176, 0.05882353]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 2176, 0.13810742]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 2176, 0.54761905]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 2176, 5.33035714]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 2176, 0.00255754]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 2176, 4.78368934]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 2176, 336.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 27, 0.0], [27, 49, 0.0], [49, 74, 0.0], [74, 95, 0.0], [95, 144, 0.0], [144, 178, 1.0], [178, 196, 0.0], [196, 241, 0.0], [241, 255, 0.0], [255, 575, 0.0], [575, 596, 0.0], [596, 637, 0.0], [637, 707, 0.0], [707, 794, 0.0], [794, 1242, 1.0], [1242, 1956, 1.0], [1956, 2176, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 27, 0.0], [27, 49, 0.0], [49, 74, 0.0], [74, 95, 0.0], [95, 144, 0.0], [144, 178, 0.0], [178, 196, 0.0], [196, 241, 0.0], [241, 255, 0.0], [255, 575, 0.0], [575, 596, 0.0], [596, 637, 0.0], [637, 707, 0.0], [707, 794, 0.0], [794, 1242, 0.0], [1242, 1956, 0.0], [1956, 2176, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 27, 5.0], [27, 49, 4.0], [49, 74, 5.0], [74, 95, 3.0], [95, 144, 8.0], [144, 178, 5.0], [178, 196, 3.0], [196, 241, 5.0], [241, 255, 2.0], [255, 575, 47.0], [575, 596, 2.0], [596, 637, 5.0], [637, 707, 9.0], [707, 794, 12.0], [794, 1242, 68.0], [1242, 1956, 120.0], [1956, 2176, 33.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 27, 0.0], [27, 49, 0.0], [49, 74, 0.0], [74, 95, 0.0], [95, 144, 0.20454545], [144, 178, 0.0], [178, 196, 0.0], [196, 241, 0.06818182], [241, 255, 0.0], [255, 575, 0.0], [575, 596, 0.0], [596, 637, 0.0], [637, 707, 0.0], [707, 794, 0.0], [794, 1242, 0.0], [1242, 1956, 0.0], [1956, 2176, 0.01388889]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 27, 0.0], [27, 49, 0.0], [49, 74, 0.0], [74, 95, 0.0], [95, 144, 0.0], [144, 178, 0.0], [178, 196, 0.0], [196, 241, 0.0], [241, 255, 0.0], [255, 575, 0.0], [575, 596, 0.0], [596, 637, 0.0], [637, 707, 0.0], [707, 794, 0.0], [794, 1242, 0.0], [1242, 1956, 0.0], [1956, 2176, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 27, 0.11111111], [27, 49, 0.09090909], [49, 74, 0.04], [74, 95, 0.0952381], [95, 144, 0.10204082], [144, 178, 0.02941176], [178, 196, 0.05555556], [196, 241, 0.13333333], [241, 255, 0.14285714], [255, 575, 0.0375], [575, 596, 0.0952381], [596, 637, 0.02439024], [637, 707, 0.01428571], [707, 794, 0.02298851], [794, 1242, 0.01339286], [1242, 1956, 0.0210084], [1956, 2176, 0.01818182]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 2176, 0.00830239]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 2176, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 2176, 0.01398581]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 2176, -54.40447539]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 2176, 8.58252879]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 2176, -92.24913833]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 2176, 19.0]]} |

A phishing attack is an attack where a cyber criminal attempts to trick victims into revealing potentially sensitive information such as their name, addresses or any bank account information.
You may have received phishing emails in the past, but they’re not always easy to spot. They usually come in the form of fraudulent emails posing as common companies such as your bank, prolific shipping companies or online retailers, asking you to enter your information to confirm your details or something that seems somewhat insignificant.
These emails are usually very well hidden, and will regularly contain matching graphics to that of your regular provider, including their logo, or a similar typeface. They are cleverly disguised as a legitimate message, making you more likely to give the cybercriminals the information they want.
It’s likely that the email may also include an urgent reason for you to click on the link or phone the number included in the email, taking you through a fake authentication process similar to that of the company they’re replicating in order to “unlock” your account.
How to Identify a Phishing e-mail.
Due to how readily available information has become, it has become harder and harder to spot phasing emails in recent times. They’ve become more and more convincing, but there are still a few tell-tale signs that will clue you in as to whether the email you’ve received is from a legitimate source or not.
Here are some clues that one of your emails is a phishing attack.
E-Mail Senders Address
If you have been sent a phishing email, it’s likely it will come from a name such as “Royal Mail”, but once you actually click to see what the email address is, it might look something like “royal.mail13572826@gmail.com”. This is a clear indicator that the email is not legitimate, and should be deleted immediately.
It is also possible to receive a phishing email from one of your e-mail contacts. They may have unknowingly been hacked, and a cybercriminal could use that person’s account to send phishing emails to everyone in their address book.
E-Mail Subject Line
Always examine the text in your e-subjects before opening them. Phishing e-mails usually want to alert you and cause anxiety, meaning they may contain some wording such as “WARNING” or “URGENT”, or something else in order to cause you anxiety so that you act without thinking. Usually, the subjects are informal, and may not make complete sense. If it seems suspicious, it’s always best to air on the side of caution and delete it.
E-mail Content
E-mail text within a phishing e-mail will usually be text that is designed to scare the reader, putting them in a vulnerable position in order to get them to hand over their information. It’s usually alarming news that requires you to take a certain action or you will suffer certain consequences, such as inputting your account information or you will face a fine.
Phishing emails are usually sent to a lot of contacts at once, and will therefore not usually contain any specifics such as your name or location, but will instead be addressed broadly, such as “Good Day” or “Dear Valued Customer”. This is a good indicator that this email is phishing, meaning it can be deleted immediately.
Different Types of Phishing Attacks
Phishing has now moved on from being an exclusively email-based scam to also taking over SMS, social media and phone calls. Below are some examples of how phishing has evolved, and how you can protect yourself against it.
Vishing is a form of phishing that takes place as a phone call and is becoming more and more common. These kinds of cyber attacks are used to retrieve information for more organized groups.
Due to the more trusting nature of a phone call as compared to an email, scammers may try to deceive you into moving funds from a bank account, or claiming you’ve faulted on a payment and they need to verify your credit card information.
To prevent these kinds of attacks, only answer calls that you are expecting from recognized callers. Your bank would never call you and ask you to verify your information.
Similarly to phishing, smishing is conducted through SMS messages and contains links or alarming messages to attempt to garner a certain response. Do not click the link or reply to the message, just delete it immediately. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11675 | {"url":

Spirit of 1848
Charles Glass
It began when Mohamed Bouazizi, a twenty-six-year-old fruit seller, set himself alight last December 17th in provincial Tunisia. Bouazizi was not demanding fair elections, free speech, equitable wealth distribution, or free medical care. All he wanted was to support his siblings and widowed mother. Selling fruit and vegetables from a barrow in the streets of Sidi Bouzid was the best he could do. The police seized his produce cart, and a policewoman reportedly joined in publicly beating him. The loss of honor and livelihood led to his public suicide, a death that ultimately achieved more than a hundred suicide bombings against innocent civilians ever did. At his funeral, five thousand mourners chanted, “Farewell, Mohamed, we will avenge you.” And avenge him they did, overthrowing the president who had overseen the profound injustice that led to his death and giving hope to the dispossessed everywhere.
Who knew that one young man’s self-immolation would set the Middle East on fire? Tunisia and Egypt’s presidents have fled. Sheikhs in Bahrain and presidents in Algeria and Sudan live in fear of their populations and are answering their demands with violence. The germ of rebellion is infecting monarchies and republics alike. Its force has been felt in American client states such as Tunisia, Egypt, and Bahrain, but anti-imperial Iran is not immune. Arab states may have been the first affected, but Persian Iran, Kurdish northern Iraq, and Somali-speaking Djibouti are witnessing the same clashes between street demonstrators and security forces that toppled the regimes in Cairo and Tunis. People have, for the moment at least, lost their fear.
“Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive,” as Wordsworth famously wrote of the French Revolution’s enthusiasts, “But to be young was very heaven!” And heaven it must be for the young in Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, Yemen, Algeria, Iran, Iraq, Bahrain, and everywhere else they are striking fear into their aged and corrupt rulers.
Estimating the breadth of discontent will be mere speculation until the dust settles and the participants reflect (hopefully not in prison) on their motives. Libya is a secular military and Arab state, while Iran is a Persian theocracy. Despite the structural differences between the sparsely populated desert dictatorship and an ancient civilization’s populous center, citizens in both nations are demanding the same things: liberty, fairness, a say in their governance, and a share of the wealth. And they are facing the state’s guns and torture chambers to do it.
“People have, for the moment at least, lost their fear.”
History’s precedents are not necessarily hopeful. In 1989, Eastern Europe and Central Asia disposed of communist rule and soon fell to oligarchs and martinets. Apart from oil, their main exports became poor women forced into prostitution and refugees seeking work. Going back a little further, the Middle East in the 1920s and intermittently in the 1930s saw almost every Arab population rebelling against colonial rule by France, Great Britain, and Italy. In Europe immediately before that, post-Great War revolutions produced fascism, Bolshevism, and, ultimately, another war.
The flowering of rebellion from Morocco to Iran resembles nothing so much as Europe’s myriad revolutions in 1848. These revolutionaries had little in common with one another beyond a dissatisfaction with the status quo, but they shared the goals of universal (male) suffrage, freedom of speech, and the end of feudal landholders who reduced peasants to rent slaves. In February 1848, an eighteen-year-old student named Carl Schurz was writing a tragic drama in Bonn when someone ran into his room and exclaimed, “What, you sitting here! Do you not know what has happened?”

Web Content Management book
ByCharles Banyay
Information technology (IT) has been applied to the solution of business problems for the past half century. Although studies have shown that most information in an enterprise is contained in unstructured data, traditional IT has done little to apply automation to any of the areas. With the advent of doing business over the Internet, or e-Business, and the associated collaboration over wide geographic expanses and extensive publishing to the Web, the automation of content and documents and those processes that depend on them may be a critical requirement for most organizations. The collective whole, aggregated content, formatted for presentation, is generally referred to as a document. A content management system manages components of documents, so it requires all of the functionality of a document management system with some additions. The lack of automated document and content management, however, has produced the opposite effects. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11680 | {"url": "https://www.taylorfrancis.com/chapters/edit/10.1201/9781420031560-9/web-content-management-charles-banyay?context=ubx&refId=46121302-9099-464b-9878-fed1b01e37df", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.taylorfrancis.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:32:56Z", "digest": "sha1:LYTA3ZEJZAHCSI7VFUZADK3WBV47RIRU"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 1028, 1028.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 1028, 1803.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 1028, 4.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 1028, 38.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 1028, 0.92]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 1028, 191.6]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 1028, 0.40571429]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 1028, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 1028, 0.07953216]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 1028, 0.04678363]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 1028, 0.02285714]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 1028, 0.10857143]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 1028, 0.61290323]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 1028, 5.51612903]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 1028, 4.26362203]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 1028, 155.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 36, 0.0], [36, 64, 0.0], [64, 81, 0.0], [81, 1028, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 36, 0.0], [36, 64, 0.0], [64, 81, 0.0], [81, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 36, 6.0], [36, 64, 4.0], [64, 81, 2.0], [81, 1028, 143.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 36, 0.0], [36, 64, 0.0], [64, 81, 0.0], [81, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 36, 0.0], [36, 64, 0.0], [64, 81, 0.0], [81, 1028, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 36, 0.16666667], [36, 64, 0.10714286], [64, 81, 0.17647059], [81, 1028, 0.01372756]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 1028, 0.30199951]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 1028, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 1028, 0.10168242]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 1028, -27.0851556]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 1028, 4.83092157]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 1028, 3.78951382]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 1028, 6.0]]} |

Six U.S. Olympians And A Youth Olympian Chosen To Compete On “Dancing With The Stars: Athletes”
By Karen Price | April 13, 2018, 8:54 a.m. (ET)
(Clockwise) Figure skater Adam Rippon, softball player Jennie Finch, luger Chris Mazdzer, figure skater Mirai Nagasu, snowboarder Jamie Anderson, basketball player Arike Ogunbowale and figure skater Tonya Harding will compete on "Dancing with the Stars: Athletes."
Six of the 10 competitors who will vie for the mirror ball trophy on season 26 of “Dancing with the Stars: Athletes” are Olympians, and one more is a Youth Olympian and Olympic hopeful.
They are snowboarder Jamie Anderson, softball player Jennie Finch, figure skater Tonya Harding, luger Chris Mazdzer, figure skater Mirai Nagasu, basketball player Arike Ogunbowale and figure skater Adam Rippon.
Season 26 of the show, which is the first to feature all athletes, will begin on April 30 and last a shortened four weeks.
The figure skaters lead the way among the Olympic athletes ready to salsa and tango their way to success on this season’s show.
Harding is riding the wave of last year’s biopic “I, Tonya,” which starred Margot Robbie portraying the two-time Olympic figure skater and telling her side of the story of the scandal for which Harding became famous in the 1990s. Harding’s rival and two-time Olympic medalist Nancy Kerrigan previously competed on the show in season 24. Harding will be dancing with Sasha Farber, who finished fourth with gymnast Simone Biles in Kerrigan’s season.
Nagasu won a team bronze medal at February’s Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018, where she became the first American woman – and only the third in the world – to land a triple axel at the Games. In the women’s individual free skate, she caught some heat for saying that her free skate performance in PyeongChang was her audition for DWTS, adding that she wanted to be on the program because she wanted to be a star. Her wish was granted and she will in fact compete on season 26. The two-time Olympian will dance with Alan Bersten.
Rippon became a media darling at the Olympics in PyeongChang, where he also helped Team USA to a bronze medal in the team event. Rippon was competing as one of the first two openly gay U.S. men’s winter Olympians, along with freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy. The 2016 U.S. champion will be dancing with first-time pro Jenna Johnson.

Representing snowboarders, Anderson is the two-time women’s slopestyle Olympic champion who added a silver medal in the first-ever big air competition in PyeongChang this year. The 27-year-old queen of slopestyle is known for being a free spirit and is the first woman ever to win multiple gold medals in snowboarding at the Olympics. She will be paired with Artem Chigvintsev.
The only Summer Games athlete on the list, Finch was one of the most dominant pitchers in women’s softball before retiring from the sport in 2010. She competed in the Olympics in 2004 and 2008, winning gold and silver, and in 2016 became the first woman to manage a professional baseball team when she guest managed for the minor league Bridgeport Bluefish in Connecticut. Finch will dance with Keo Motsepe as she becomes the first softball player on the show.
Three-time Olympian Chris Mazdzer is the first U.S. luge athlete to compete in the dancing competition. He made history in PyeongChang when he set a track record with his third run and became the first American and non-European man to win an Olympic medal in singles luge. He will be dancing with Witney Carson, who won the mirror ball in season 19 with actor Alfonso Ribeiro.
A seventh athlete competed in the Youth Olympic Games. Notre Dame basketball's Ogunbowale became a star after her two buzzer-beaters in the semifinals and finals of the NCAA Championships helped the Irish win the women’s national title this year. Involved with Team USA since 2013, Ogunbowale won a gold medal in 3-on-3 at the Youth Olympics in 2014 and has said she’d love to participate in either 3-on-3 or as part of the full team in basketball at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020. She will dance with Gleb Savchenko.
They join a list of 25 Olympians and one Paralympian who’ve previously competed on the show, including winners Apolo Ohno, Kristi Yamaguchi, Shawn Johnson, Meryl Davis and Laurie Hernandez.
The other athletes competing are basketball great Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, dancing with reigning champion Lindsay Arnold; former MLB outfielder Johnny Damon, paired with season 24 winner Emma Slater; and NFL cornerback Josh Norman, who will dance with two-time runner-up Sharna Burgess.

Snapchat Spectacles review
While Snap came from small beginnings, the company is estimated to be worth $29 billion and is looking to enter the camera market with Snapchat Spectacles. We’ve spent some time with Snapchat’s camera-enabled sunglasses, and here’s what we thought.

While we were initially dubious about Snapchat Spectacles and its value in a world full of action cameras and smartphones, but Spectacles do make recording videos much simpler and much more fun to watch too. The design isn’t for everyone but if you’re a Snapchatter or someone going on holiday that has a spare £130, it’s a fun piece of tech that’ll help you document your life and experiences.

Snapchat is a hugely popular social networking app available for iOS and Android that lets users share photos and videos that automatically expire after a set amount of time.
While Snap came from small beginnings, the company is estimated to be worth $29 billion and is looking to enter the camera market with its inaugural product, Snapchat Spectacles. We’ve spent some time with Snapchat’s camera-enabled sunglasses, and here’s what we thought.
UK pricing and availability
Before we get into the nitty-gritty of what Snapchat Spectacles offer, let’s first discuss UK pricing and availability. Snapchat Spectacles are now officially on-sale in the UK after a period of exclusivity in the US. Those interested in picking up a pair of Snap’s camera-enabled sunglasses will have to fork out £129.99 in the UK ($129.99 in the US).
At launch, you only had two options if you wanted to buy the Snapchat Spectacles. You could either head to the Snapchat Spectacles website and order them online (shipping usually takes around 3-5 working days) or you could use the Snapbot.
In a slightly odd turn of events, Snap is sending a Spectacles-themed vending machine dubbed Snapbot around the UK, US and Europe, allowing users to quickly buy Spectacles. Simply head to the Snapbot website to find out where your closest vending machine is.
But, as of 18 July, you can now get hold of the Snapchat Spectacles much easier via Amazon. See the Snapchat Spectacles on Amazon here.

The design of the Spectacles will likely divide opinion; while some will love the quirky and out-there design of the sunglasses, others will think it’s a bit too in-your-face and would prefer something a little more understated.
With that being said, there are various degrees to outrageousness when it comes to Snapchat Spectacles. It’s available in three colours: Black, Teal (Blue) and Coral (Red), with the Black variant being the most understated in terms of design.
It features a black frame, black lenses and yellow rings around the camera and light modules on either side of the glasses. There’s also a light detailing present on the arms of the sunglasses. Not too bad!
However, the teal and coral Spectacles are a little more in-your-face. They both feature brightly coloured reflective lenses and colourful detailing on the arms of the glasses. While the Snapchat Spectacle models on the site look cool, we’ve got a feeling that not everyone will be able to pull them off.
In terms of the featured technology, the Spectacles feature a camera on the right-hand side of the glasses and a light and a button to start and end recording on the left-hand side. The light is outward facing and displays a circle of light when the Spectacles are recording – it makes it easy for those around you to know when you’re recording, and helps to alleviate some of the privacy concerns raised when mounting a camera onto a pair of sunglasses.
There’s also a light on the inside of the glasses to give you a heads up when a video is being recorded and when it’s about to finish (it’ll flash when there are two second left).
Along with the Spectacles, Snapchat provides a soft-to-the-touch triangular glasses case that doubles up as a wireless charger for the glasses. In fact, the case can provide four full Spectacle charges before requiring a top-up itself.
Snapchat’s camera-enabled glasses aren’t perfect, though. There are blind spots on the left- and right-hand side of the glasses due to the camera and light housings. It’s not enough to be put off from using them completely, but it’s noticeable when wearing the glasses. The glasses aren’t waterproof or even water resistant, meaning you can’t wear them in the rain or in a swimming pool.
Oh, and they’re not polarised either, meaning that unlike standard sunglasses, they won’t reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water and glass.
These changes may be negated on the upcoming Snapchat Spectacles 2 though, due for release in 2018.
Using Snapchat Spectacles
Snapchat Spectacles feature a wide-angle 115-degree lens that is said to mimic how humans see and while that is generally the case, you still should be conscious that the camera is mounted on the right of the glasses and that it might miss out on things happening to the far left of you. Apart from that, the hardware is incredibly simple to use – it’s when it comes to the software side of things that it starts to get complicated.
Recording snaps
To record a video using Snapchat Spectacles, simply press the button in the top-left of the sunglasses. A light will appear on both the outside and inside of the glasses to let everyone know that the glasses are recording, and the light will flash when you’ve got two seconds of video left.
From here, you can press the button again to extend it by 10 seconds (this can be done up to 30 seconds) or, if you want to stop recording before the 10 seconds is up, simply press and hold the button for a second or so. The sunglasses can store 10 snaps locally but if you want to record more, you’ll need to sync with your smartphone.
The Spectacles battery lasts for around 100 snaps, or around a day of general usage, and is charged wirelessly using the supplied glasses case. To check the current battery level of the glasses, users need only gently tap the left side of the glasses. So far, so simple, right?
Android and iOS support
Snapchat Spectacles are compatible with both iOS and Android, although Android seems to be the better choice for Spectacle users. Why? While Android users connect to the Spectacles exclusively via Wi-Fi, it’s not the case for iOS devices. Granted, it doesn’t seem like a huge deal initially, but it means that while Android users will import HD snaps by default, the same can’t be said for iOS users.
Instead, iOS users must first connect to Spectacles via Bluetooth and import a SD version of the snaps. Once imported, you can re-import selected snaps in HD by leaving the app, connecting to Spectacles via Wi-Fi in the settings menu then heading back into the app to sync the snaps. It’s an extra step that gets quite annoying, especially on days where many snaps are recorded.
Viewing and sharing snaps
To view the snaps recorded via Spectacles, you’ll (somewhat obviously) need to use the Snapchat app for iOS and Android. To view your recently imported story, you simply swipe up to access Snapchat Memories and select the new ‘Specs’ tab to view your stories on a day-by-day basis.
Of course, not every video you record via Spectacles will be worthy of being added to your story. That’s why Snapchat automatically analyses each video and automatically selects those that it thinks is interesting. It makes it easier to search through tens of videos for the ones you want to share, although it’s not always 100 percent accurate. When it does make a mistake, it’s easy enough to remove/add snaps.
To view the videos recorded via Snapchat Spectacles, simply select the day you’d like to view and it’ll open full-screen. This is where one of Spectacles most underrated features comes into play: the glasses record in a circular format but display it in a standard 16:9 aspect ratio. This means that users can rotate their phones when watching Spectacles-recorded snaps and get a different angle of what is happening.
It doesn’t add much to the viewing experience beyond being a cool little feature you can show your friends, but it’s a cool feature nonetheless.
When it comes to sharing the Spectacles story, it’s a relatively straightforward process. In fact, it’s almost the exact same process as posting a regular snap; simply tap the blue send icon on any video you’d like to share and you’re then presented with options to share it to your Snapchat Story or with specific friends.
Exporting snaps
Of course, you are free to export your Spectacle videos for use in other apps like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, but they won’t perform in the same way as in Snapchat. Why? It’ll be exported in a circular format rather than the standard 16:9 view, and won’t support the intelligent rotation mentioned above.

Business Fire Alarm Systems – Why Are They So Important?
By investing in a fire alarm system, you'll be able to alert everyone on your premises and give them adequate time to evacuate immediately.
Did you know that in 2019-20 the Fire and Rescue Services in the UK attended 153,957 fire-related incidents?
It shows that fire is a serious threat to any building, and your business premises will not spare from this.
We cannot strain enough the importance of protecting your business from the risk of fire, no matter the nature of your business. The good way to do this is by adopting the best possible fire safety practices, including a risk assessment and management in the form of a commercial fire alarm system.
By investing in a fire alarm system, you’ll be able to alert everyone on your premises and give them adequate time to evacuate immediately. You’ll also be able to call the fire services to extinguish the fire as quickly as possible and therefore minimize damage.
Such a system will protect life and is also a legal requirement. You will be responsible for the fire safety in your business as the owner, employer, or any other controlling position.
Should you wish to find out more, read below for our article on commercial fire alarm systems, the different types available, and how they work, written in collaboration with Brunel Fire and Security, leading providers of fire alarm system Bristol.

How to Choose Your Fire Alarm
Fire alarms work thanks to specialized sensors that detect smoke, heat, or increased carbon monoxide.
When this sensor triggers, the alarm will go off, warning people to get themselves to safety.
A full fire alarm system will compose of a control panel, power supplies, initiating devices, and notification devices.
Some systems will also incorporate sprinklers that can instantly extinguish flames, two-way communication, and remote monitoring systems.
Some fire alarm systems will link to a professional Alarm Receiving Centre that will constantly monitor your system. It guarantees instant action should be the unfortunate event of a fire breaking out, and they will call the fire brigade and other authorities.
There are two different types of fire alarms to choose from. These are conventional and addressable systems. And both link devices such as sensors, detectors, and pull stations to a control panel. However, they both differ in how they link together and work overall.
Conventional fire alarm systems are set up in zones that link to one main control panel. When the fire alarm is triggered, you’ll be able to use the control panel to recognize the location of the fire by recognizing the zone it is in.
It’s important to note that these zones can be broad. For example, if your building has four floors, and each floor is a zone, a conventional fire alarm system will identify the floor but not where the fire is on that floor.
These systems are perfect for small commercial properties such as individual offices and shops.
Addressable fire alarms differ from conventional fire alarms as each device on the system will have an address or location. Then, each device is monitored from one central location. Therefore, this system will allow you to identify exactly where the fire is.
It makes addressable fire alarms excellent for larger commercial properties such as multi-story buildings and large building complexes.
It’s also important to understand that fire alarms run through various grades and categories, as noted in the British Standard BS5839. These six grades detail the type of equipment that the system uses.
Grade A: Separate detectors and sounders with a backup power supply and a central control panel conforming to British Standards BS EN 54.
Grade C: Separate detectors and sounders and a central control panel connected to a common power supply, with a mains and standby supply.
Grade D1: One or more detectors, powered on a mains supply with a tamper-proof standby supply consisting of battery cells.
Grade D2: One or more detectors, powered on the mains, and a standby supply consisting of battery cells.
Grade F1: One or additional detectors, powered by tamper-proof, replaceable primary batteries.
Grade F2: One or more fire detectors powered with replaceable primary batteries.
There are also various categories of fire alarm systems to comply with British Standards;
Category M: M for ‘manual,’ consisting of all manual fire alarms where the alarm must be triggered manually, such as at a call point. These are simple systems.
Category L: L for ‘life protection,’ consisting of fire alarms that protect life. There are five levels of category L, L1-L5, with 1 being the highest protection level and five offerings enough protection to fulfill basic requirements.
Category P: P stands for ‘property,’ consisting of fire alarms that protect property. Two levels, P1-P2, offer various levels of protection, with P1 providing complete protection and P2 with detectors in certain defined parts of your premises.

Solar Radio Signals Could Be Used To Monitor Melting Ice Sheets
July 16, 2021 July 16, 2021 Kaleem Naqvi 66 Views 0 Comments Solar Radio Signals 5 min read
In a new study, a team of glaciologists and electrical engineers show how solar radio signals naturally emitted by the sun can be turned into a passive radar system for measuring the depth of ice sheets and successfully tested it on a glacier in Greenland.
The sun provides a daunting source of electromagnetic disarray – chaotic, random energy emitted by the massive ball of gas arrives to Earth in a wide spectrum of solar radio signals. But in that randomness, Stanford researchers have discovered the makings of a powerful tool for monitoring ice and polar changes on Earth and across the solar system.
The technique, detailed in the journal Geophysical Research Letters on July 14, could lead to a cheaper, lower power and more pervasive alternative to current methods of collecting data, according to the researchers.
The advance may offer large-scale, prolonged insight into melting ice sheets and glaciers, which are among the dominant causes of sea-level rise threatening coastal communities around the world.
A sky full of signals
Airborne ice-penetrating radar – the primary current means for collecting widespread information about the polar subsurface – involves flying airplanes containing a high-powered system that transmits its own “active” radar signal down through the ice sheet. The undertaking is resource-intensive, however, and only provides information about conditions at the time of the flight.
By contrast, the researchers’ proof of concept uses a battery-powered receiver with an antenna placed on the ice to detect the sun’s radio waves as they travel down to Earth, through the ice sheet and to the subsurface. In other words, instead of transmitting its own signal, the system uses naturally occurring radio waves that are already traveling down from the sun, a nuclear-powered transmitter in the sky.
If this type of system were fully miniaturized and deployed in extensive sensor networks, it would offer an unprecedented look at the subsurface evolution of Earth’s quickly changing polar conditions, the researchers say.
“Our goal is to chart a course for the development of low-resource sensor networks that can monitor subsurface conditions on a really wide scale,” said lead study author Sean Peters, who conducted research for the study as a graduate student at Stanford and now works at the MIT Lincoln Laboratory. “That could be challenging with active sensors, but this passive technique gives us the opportunity to really take advantage of low-resource implementations.”
A random advantage
In addition to visible and other kinds of light, the sun is constantly emitting radio waves across a wide, random spectrum of frequencies. The researchers used this chaos to their advantage: They recorded a snippet of the sun’s radioactivity, which is like an endless song that never repeats, then listened for that unique signature in the echo that’s created when the solar radio waves bounce off the bottom of an ice sheet.
Measuring the delay between the original recording and the echo allows them to calculate the distance between the surface receiver and the floor of the ice sheet, and thus its thickness.
In their test on Store Glacier in West Greenland, the researchers computed an echo delay time of about 11 microseconds, which maps to an ice thickness of about 3,000 feet – a figure that matches measurements of the same site recorded from both ground-based and airborne radar.
“It’s one thing to do a bunch of math and physics and convince yourself something should be possible – it’s really something else to see an actual echo from the bottom of an ice sheet using the sun,” said senior author Dustin Schroeder, an assistant professor of geophysics at Stanford’s School of Earth, Energy & Environmental Sciences (Stanford Earth).
The idea of using passive radio waves to collect geophysical measurements of ice thickness was initially proposed by study co-author Andrew Romero-Wolf, a researcher with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, as a way of investigating Jupiter’s icy moons.
As Schroeder and Romero-Wolf worked together with others on a mission, it became clear that radio waves generated by Jupiter itself would interfere with their active ice-penetrating radar systems. At one point, Romero-Wolf realized that instead of a weakness, Jupiter’s erratic radio emissions might actually be a strength, if they could be turned into a source for probing the subsurface of the moons.
“We started discussing it in the context of Jupiter’s moon Europa, but then we realized it should work for observing Earth’s ice sheets too if we replace Jupiter with the sun,” Schroeder said.
From there, the research team undertook the task of isolating the sun’s ambient radio emissions to see if it could be used to measure ice thickness. The method involved bringing a subset of the sun’s 200- to 400-megahertz radio frequency band above the noise of other celestial bodies, processing massive amounts of data and eliminating man-made sources of electromagnetism like TV stations, FM radio and electronic equipment.
While the system only works when the sun is above the horizon, the proof-of-concept opens the possibility of adapting to other naturally occurring and man-made radio sources in the future.
The co-authors are also still pursuing their original idea of applying this technique to space missions by harnessing the ambient energy emitted by other astronomical sources like the gas giant Jupiter.
“Pushing the frontiers of sensing technology for planetary research has enabled us to push the frontiers of sensing technology for climate change,” Schroeder said. “Monitoring ice sheets under climate change and exploring icy moons at the outer planets are both extremely low-resource environments where you really need to design elegant sensors that don’t require a lot of power.”

How to Diagnose Antisynthetase Syndrome

This computed tomography of the chest shows bilateral, diffuse, ground-glass opacities and nodular opacities with intralobular septal thickening.
Antisynthetase syndrome (AS) is strongly associated with the presence of antibodies to aminoacyl-transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetases (ARSs) that are implicated in the pathogenesis of myositis and interstitial lung disease (ILD).

How to Recognize, Diagnose Periodic Fever Syndromes in Adults
Antibodies against eight antisynthetases have been identified and are detected in 16–26% of patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM).1 Serum assays for five of these antibodies are commercially available: anti-histidyl (Jo-1), anti-threonyl (PL-7), anti-alanyl (PL-12), anti-isoleucyl (OJ) and anti-glycl (EJ). Anti-Jo-1 antibodies are seen more commonly in patients with polymyositis and dermatomyositis compared with the others that are found less frequently.2 These antibodies usually target the enzymatic component of tRNA synthetases; only anti-PL-12 recognizes tRNA directly.

Few articles in the literature describe the outcome of patients with anti-PL-12 AS. We present a case of anti-PL-12 AS, along with discussion of the outcome, functional course, complications and mortality in AS patients presenting with this rare antibody, along with a brief review of myositis-related antibodies.
In early 2009, a 49-year-old Caucasian male presented to the outpatient rheumatology clinic with complaints of progressive shortness of breath. He had a history of undifferentiated connective tissue disease, sclerodactyly and Raynaud’s symptoms. A review of systems was positive for diffuse joint pains, intermittent fevers, hyperkeratotic skin lesions of both hands, esophageal dysmotility and decreased motility in his gut. His medical history was also significant for splenic vein thrombosis and deep venous thrombosis, for which he was on chronic anticoagulation.
The physical examination revealed decreased bilateral breath sounds, puffy fingers, hyperkeratotic skin over the palmar surface of both hands, no clinical evidence of synovitis and normal muscle strength.
Laboratory analysis revealed mild inflammation with C-reactive protein (CRP) of 15 mg/L, normal creatine phosphokinase (CPK) and normal liver function tests. Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) were negative, and no anti-cytoplasmic staining was detected on indirect immunofluorescence. Rheumatoid factor and anticyclic citrullinated protein antibodies were negative.
An additional workup showed negative anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, negative anti-SSA antibodies, and negative PM-Scl antibodies. Pulmonary function tests revealed mild restrictive ventilator defect with severe reduction in diffusion capacity and forced vital capacity (FVC). Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV 1) was 75%, and carbon monoxide diffusion capacity (DLCO) was 36%. High-resolution computed tomography (CT) of the chest demonstrated bilateral pulmonary infiltrates with alveolitis.
The patient was monitored regularly with clinical, laboratory, radiological and lung function evaluations for four years. He developed progression of ILD with declining pulmonary function tests. High-resolution CT imaging showed bilateral pulmonary infiltrates and alveolitis with diffuse, bilateral, ground-glass opacities and nodular infiltrates with intraseptal wall thickening compatible with nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (see Figure 1).

The Poaching Issue
What Is Ivory?
The Last Tuskers

Human fascination and desire for ivory dates back to before the ancient Egyptian pyramids were built.
It has been carved, polished and used to decorate items such as furniture, musical instruments, sculptures and figurines, billiard balls, jewellery, name (signature) seals and even things as small and trivial as chopsticks.
Human obsession with ivory has led to the substance being referred to as White Gold and resulted in millions of elephants being killed throughout history for their tusks.
In the late 1970’s and early-mid 1980’s half of the African elephant population – some 600,000 elephants (possibly more) were killed in just one decade.
World attention and awareness was focused through campaigns on the ever increasing elephant slaughter which eventually resulted in a 1989 world wide ban implemented by CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species) on the selling and trading of ivory.
Whilst poaching has occurred throughout the years since the international ban was imposed and combined with the continued loss of natural habitat and human-elephant conflict that increases year on year, the 1989 CITES ivory ban was at the time a huge reprieve for the surviving populations of African elephants and for two decades their numbers stabilised and even started increasing in many areas.
Sketch by : Dawie Fourie
This began to change in 2007-2017 when once again elephants found themselves under large scale attack for their prized tusks. Basic firearms and bow & arrows once used to kill elephants have now been replaced with weapons such as semi-automatic rifles, grenades, poison, helicopters and night vision goggles.
It is estimated that more than 20,000 elephants were being killed throughout Africa each and every year in this renewed poaching surge between 2007-2017. It equated to approximately one elephant being killed every 20 minutes or so to supply the black market demand for ivory.
Populations that had begun to rebound since the 1989 ban plummeted rapidly across Africa.
Tanzania in East Africa is reported to have lost more than half of their elephant population since 2007 – more than 50,000 elephants.
Mozambique in Southern Africa is reported to have lost 50% of their remaining herds who had dealt with both the poaching crises and the Mozambican civil war that raged between 1977 - 1992.
In central Africa the population of forest elephants has declined by more than 60% with some countries such as the Democratic Republic of Congo reported to have lost 95% of the elephant population.
Whilst elephants have roamed the African landscape for countless generations, between 2007-2017 eight out of every ten elephants deaths was a result of being illegally killed by poachers.
Debate rages as to what initiated this new wave of illegal killing.
Many believe two “one-off” sale events sanctioned by CITES from Southern African countries (Botswana, Namibia, South Africa & Zimbabwe) who were allowed to sell their ivory stockpiles to Japan in 1999 (54.6 tonnes) and to China & Japan in 2008 (102 tonnes) sent mixed signals to consumers wanting to purchase ivory products.
Countries such as China and Thailand implemented ivory registration systems which were designed to document & account for legal ivory sales but became systems used to funnel large volumes of illegal poached ivory into the market and shopfronts with ‘legal’ certification.
Increasing wealth throughout the world especially in Asian countries such as China means ivory is now in reach for many more people who may have once only been able to desire it. Prices increased from roughly $150/kg in 2002 to over $2000 in 2015.
As diamonds once did in Sierra Leone and Liberia, elephant ivory has been used to fund & fuel conflicts across Africa, with rebel groups such as the LRA & al-Shabab targeting elephants and using the ivory to fund their operations. In some poaching cases even the national armed forces of the countries themselves have been implicated.
The participation of organised and sophisticated crime syndicates in the illegal ivory network have fostered corruption and allowed large scale poaching to occur and consignments to evade authorities. It is estimated that only 10% of shipments are discovered with ivory now being concealed in bags of fertiliser, wrapped in chilli to deter sniffer dogs, hidden in shipments of dried fish, sprayed and disguised to look like timber and chocolate and sadly even transported in coffins draped in a national flag.
Whilst it is likely that a combination of the above points resulted in the recent surge - corruption, greed, transnational gangs & syndicates, weak / poor governance and lax law enforcement including minimal punishments for wildlife crime have all contributed to the illegal killing of elephants.
The global community has galvanised to some extent over the past few years which has resulted in a decline in some of the alarming statistics from between 2007-2017.
Over 150 tonnes of stockpiled ivory has been burned and crushed in recent years throughout the world as governments try to send messages of zero tolerance and attempt to discredit the allure of buying & owning ivory.
There has been an increased focus on anti-poaching measures and patrols, increased detection efforts and capabilities, stiffer penalties & prison sentences and the shutting down of once legal domestic markets which have acted as a smokescreen and cover for international trafficking of illegal ivory to be substituted into the chain.
The closure of domestic ivory markets in China and other countries a few years ago was a huge result in the attempt to turn the tide.
Despite the measures taken & progress implemented over the past couple of years elephants are still being killed in large numbers.
Today, the use of ivory in many of the items in which it was previously used has ceased and been replaced with synthetic products such as plastic. Sadly however, in a modern and industrialised world it is now desired for the simple act of showcasing and displaying one’s wealth and status. Unless we can change this desirability for ivory and halt the continued illegal killing of elephants they will continue to disappear from large areas of their natural range and could be potentially lost forever.

Bengaluru Boy’s ‘Cancer Cure’ Makes Him the First Indian to Reach Breakthrough Challenge Finals
By Lekshmi Priya S
Samay Godika, a class 10 student of Bengaluru’s National Public School, will be representing the country on a global front through the Breakthrough Junior Challenge with his illuminating video on the self-cleansing mechanism of Autophagy.
While scientists and researchers across the globe have been burning the midnight oil to formulate cures for debilitating diseases like cancer, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s but to no respite, one Bengaluru teenager’s scientific ‘breakthrough’ could be the next best thing to fight the dreaded maladies.
One amidst the 14 finalists sieved out of more than 8,000 of entries from across the world, Samay’s video talks about the physiological process in the body that deals with the destruction of cells in the body. The original discovery of Autophagy had won the Japanese cell biologist Yoshinori Ohsumi a Nobel prize in 2016.
The budding science enthusiast was inspired into researching various preventive care mechanisms, as many of his relatives had been victims of neurological diseases.

“This is how I came across the topic. If Autophagy is executed regularly, it can have the power to prevent (not cure, just prevent) diseases such as Cancer and Alzheimer’s,” he explained to YourStory.
An avid YouTuber, Samay’s video depicts Autophagy as the protagonist with superhero-like abilities, taking the viewer through an animated story that presents comprehensive scientific knowledge laced with humour.
The international competition invites submissions from students between 13 and 18 years, which requires the aspirants to research, create and submit original videos on complex topics in the field of life sciences, physics, or mathematics.

These videos are then judged on their ability to engage and inform the viewers along with the level of creativity and difficulty they have been made with. The videos were also posted on Facebook for public voting under the ‘Popular Vote’ contest. And with more than 32,000 likes, shares and positive reactions on his post on the Breakthrough Facebook page, Samay had clinched the top position!
Samay is the only Indian who has ever made it to the finals. If he can win the challenge, he will be awarded a college scholarship worth $250,000 along with a sum of $100,000 for setting up a science lab in his school.
The annual competition, which is sponsored by the founders of Facebook, Google and Khan Academy, was instated to instil creative thinking amidst young and budding scientists in the field of science.
Samay has another credit to his name. Selected by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for their Launch Entrepreneurship Programme 2017, he went on to co-found Memorably, a company, which curates photobooks of grandchildren for their grandparents.
Having reached so far, the boy is elated and looks forward to the final stage of the competition.

10 Signs You’re Having a Lucky Day, According to Wearing Butterflies Necklace
A butterfly necklace is a great accessory that you can wear every day. They are said to bring good luck and give off positive vibes. However, what if something happens that makes you think it wasn’t your lucky day? Well, there are actually certain signs of having a lucky day! Here are 10 of them:
Your mood is on point.
You feel rejuvenated and energized in the morning.
It rained or snowed last night.
You can make small talk to strangers.
You get a serendipitous call or text from someone you hadn’t talked to in a while.
Everything goes according to plan for once.
Someone tells you how you changed their life for the better.
You find something that you lost a long time ago.
Someone holds the door open for you, and you hold it open for someone else after that.
Everything tastes fresher than usual.
Do not hesitate to wear your Butterfly Necklaces – it brings luck!
If you’re feeling good about yourself, the world around you and your life, this is a sure sign that butterfies necklace has brought good luck into your life.
If it was just the necklace and not anything else in particular then I would tell you don’t get too excited as there may be some other reason why you are feeling happy today. But if everything else remains constant and this happens only when wearing your butterfly necklace – then count yourself lucky!
This can be a sign that you are having a lucky day. It means that the energy you have is positive and the universe is supporting your efforts. You might feel like there is nothing in this world that can stop you from achieving your goals!
This feeling is likely due to an increase in dopamine production, which helps to boost motivation and drive. This physiological response helps us deal with stressors more effectively.
If it rained or snowed last night, that means you’re having a lucky day. This is the most common sign of good luck in folklore and mythology. If you want to know if you will have a lucky day, simply look outside and see if it’s raining or snowing.
If you are wearing a butterfly necklace, then this also means that your day will be filled with joy and happiness!
If you can make small talk to strangers, it’s a sign that you’re having a lucky day. You can chat with the cashier at the grocery store, or ask someone for directions on the street. You might even decide to strike up conversation with an old friend over coffee! Whatever your reason for talking to people, know that wearing butterflies necklaces will help spark those conversations and make them easier for you to handle.
Have you been thinking about someone and they call or text? It could be a friend, family member, or even an ex. If so, it’s a good sign! When you get that serendipitous call or text from someone you haven’t talked to in a while—or just haven’t thought about much lately—chances are they’ve been thinking about you too. The butterfly necklace will help keep your connection strong by reminding both of you how special the two of you were together once upon a time.
A good day is when everything goes according to plan. It doesn’t happen often, but it’s nice when it does. You wake up and everything feels right in the world: no traffic on the way to work, a sunny day instead of rainy weather (or vice versa), and your favorite song playing on the radio. The world has finally decided to cooperate with you!
But what if you’re still having trouble figuring out whether or not this is truly a lucky day? No worries—we’ve got some pointers for ya!
If you notice that all of these things are happening at once:
You have a good feeling about yourself and are confident in who you are;
Your plans for that day go smoothly without any problems or delays;
You have a positive outlook on life and believe that great things will come your way soon because they deserve it–and they do!
“I felt so lucky today when I was at work and someone told me how much they appreciated something I did for them. We don’t always know how our actions affect others, but this person was able to tell me exactly what it was that made a difference in their life. It made me feel great knowing that my actions had such an impact on this person!
“The other day when I was walking home from the store, someone stopped me to say thank you for doing something kind for them, even though they didn’t know who did it. Someone paid for her groceries and left without telling anyone who did it, then another stranger came along and left a note saying that she wanted the person who paid their bill to know how grateful she is for their generosity. It just goes to show that even if we don’t get recognized right away (or ever), sometimes the best way we can make other people feel good is by helping out in any way we can.”
You find your lost wallet.
You find your lost keys.
You find your lost phone.
You find your lost earrings.
You find your lost sunglasses.
Or, if you’re really lucky, you might even find one of these:
Your forgotten watch! It’s hanging on a tree branch just above the stream where you left it two days ago when it fell off as you were walking along thinking about how much money all this stuff cost but also how nice it is to have so many possessions even though most of them will eventually get stolen or broken anyway because that’s the way of things in life and we only have so much time on this earth before we die so why not enjoy what little time we have here? Isn’t that right? (Or something like that—the point is that sometimes we don’t think about these things until it’s too late.)
It is said that if you wear butterfly necklace, you will have a lucky day. This is because butterflies represent happiness, prosperity and good health. If you see them on your way to work or just when walking outside, it means that there are more positive things coming in your life.
In addition to wearing this symbol of luck around your neck, you should also make sure to hold the door open for other people when they get off their car or bus after taking public transportation. Make sure not to let any other person go ahead of you as well—this will bring even more good fortune into your life!
You’re in a great mood and you can taste the freshness of everything around you.
You can taste the freshness of the food, whether it be a salad or something more decadent (like chocolate). You can also taste the freshness of your environment as well as those around you. It doesn’t matter what kind of day you are having—if it’s a good one, then chances are that everyone around you will be happy to see and interact with each other.
The best way to ensure that you get luck is to wear your butterfly necklace. This will open up the opportunities for everyone around you and make sure that things go smoothly without any problems.
So, there you have it—10 signs you’re having a lucky day. If these ten things happen to you today or tomorrow, we recommend that you wear your butterfly necklace and relish the moment! | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11691 | {"url":

First Trial Selected in NuvaRing Litigation
Home » Medical Devices » First Trial Selected in NuvaRing Litigation
January 30, 2013 — A NuvaRing lawsuit has been scheduled for trial on May 6, 2013 in New Jersey state court, where approximately 200 other cases are currently pending.
About 1,000 other NuvaRing lawsuits are pending in federal court in the U.S. District for the Eastern District of Missouri, and those lawsuits are scheduled for trial in July 2013. All of the lawsuits allege that NuvaRing was sold without adequate warnings about the increased risk of blood clots.
The New Jersey NuvaRing litigation is centralized in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Bergen County, before Judge Brian R. Martinotti. Lawyers have spent the last few months choosing which cases will be trial candidates.
According to a Case Management Order filed on January 15, the lawsuit will go before a jury beginning in May. These “bellwether” trials are selected because they involve injuries and allegations that are similar to many other cases in the litigation. The jury’s decisions are very important, because they can help lawyers gauge how a jury responds to evidence and testimony. This information can help gauge the value of a potential settlement.
All of the lawsuits in the centralized NuvaRing litigation have been filed by women who suffered from blood clots or complications of blood clots. The problem is that many of these women allege that they were never warned that NuvaRing is associated with a higher risk of blood clots than many other contraceptives, but it is equally effective at preventing pregnancy.
The problem is that NuvaRing contains a new type of hormone called etonogestrel. Studies published in May 2012 in the British Medical Journal linked NuvaRing to a 6.5-fold increased risk of blood clots compared to many other contraceptives. Two months later, the New England Journal of Medicine linked NuvaRing to a 2.5-fold increased risk of stroke due to blood clots in the brain. | 2023-14/0037/en_head.json.gz/11692 | {"url": "https://www.theclarkfirmtexas.com/first-trial-selected-in-nuvaring-litigation/", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "www.theclarkfirmtexas.com", "date_download": "2023-03-20T09:19:59Z", "digest": "sha1:SO4YJ55OCA3H4GCXJIMTMSJZA2CG2672"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 1996, 1996.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 1996, 5006.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 1996, 8.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 1996, 106.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 1996, 0.97]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 1996, 205.2]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 1996, 0.375]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 1996, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 1996, 0.07687614]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 1996, 0.04636974]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 1996, 0.01830384]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 1996, 0.02928615]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 1996, 0.02928615]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 1996, 0.01086957]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 1996, 0.14130435]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 1996, 0.49386503]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 1996, 5.02760736]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 1996, 4.7001004]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 1996, 326.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 44, 0.0], [44, 113, 0.0], [113, 281, 1.0], [281, 579, 1.0], [579, 801, 1.0], [801, 1245, 1.0], [1245, 1614, 1.0], [1614, 1996, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 44, 0.0], [44, 113, 0.0], [113, 281, 0.0], [281, 579, 0.0], [579, 801, 0.0], [801, 1245, 0.0], [1245, 1614, 0.0], [1614, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 44, 6.0], [44, 113, 11.0], [113, 281, 29.0], [281, 579, 49.0], [579, 801, 35.0], [801, 1245, 72.0], [1245, 1614, 61.0], [1614, 1996, 63.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 44, 0.0], [44, 113, 0.0], [113, 281, 0.08588957], [281, 579, 0.02749141], [579, 801, 0.0], [801, 1245, 0.00457666], [1245, 1614, 0.0], [1614, 1996, 0.02139037]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 44, 0.0], [44, 113, 0.0], [113, 281, 0.0], [281, 579, 0.0], [579, 801, 0.0], [801, 1245, 0.0], [1245, 1614, 0.0], [1614, 1996, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 44, 0.13636364], [44, 113, 0.13043478], [113, 281, 0.04166667], [281, 579, 0.04362416], [579, 801, 0.07207207], [801, 1245, 0.02027027], [1245, 1614, 0.01626016], [1614, 1996, 0.04450262]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 1996, 0.00092107]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 1996, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 1996, 0.10798043]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 1996, -112.49808296]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 1996, 11.89828822]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 1996, 14.58532534]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 1996, 19.0]]} |

The relevance of ground-based midcourse missile defense
Ground-based Midcourse Defense is a critical element of US national defense against ballistic missiles

Since 2001 the War on Terror has dominated modern warfare for the United States. Engagements around the world, particularly in Iraq and Afghanistan, have been the focus of the country’s offensive and defensive military efforts abroad. With close to two decades of conflict focused on terrorism, one might start to question the resources dedicated to protection from more traditional threats such as adversarial foreign powers. One such resource is Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD).
For those unfamiliar with GMD, it is a major element of the United States’ missile defense strategy. Ground-based Interceptors and Ground Support & Fire Control Systems are the main components of the system. Their purpose is to intercept incoming ballistic missiles in space. According to the Missile Defense Agency, there are currently 44 interceptors enabled. These systems are emplaced at Vandenberg Air Force Base, California, and Fort Greely, Alaska.
The anatomy of a GMD interception is as follows. First, a ballistic missile is launched from somewhere in the world with a target in the United States. Networks of infrared sensors in space detect the launch, and a command and control network is notified. The ballistic missile is monitored and tracked by several assets: Aegis SPY-1 radar, sea-based X-band radar and upgraded early warning radar/Cobra Dane radar. At this point, an interceptor is launched from either California or Alaska at the incoming missile.
The monitoring assets refine the trajectory of the hostile ballistic missile and in-flight updates are sent to the interceptor. The target is acquired, and the interceptor moves along a collision course with the missile. Finally the interceptor collides with the ballistic missile, destroying it.
The system has been tested to be very accurate. Tests have shown it to be an effective platform to protect the country from a potential ballistic missile threat.
Boeing is the prime contractor for the program and in 2008 the company was awarded a contract for $397.9 million to further develop GMD. In more recent years (FY16), the National Defense Authorization Act allowed for $1.8 billion for continued development of GMD and related components. The projected cost through 2017 was estimated to be over $40 billion.
With the Cold War relegated to the history books and anti-terrorism efforts the current focus, this may seem like a waste of resources. In reality, nothing could be further from the truth.
Recent events, such as the killing of Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, keep our focus on terrorism. The world is a far more complicated place, however, and other threats may be on the horizon. As a nation we must not forget that systems like GMD protect us from the potential future threats we could have no way of predicting.
Several nations already have the ability to strike the United States with ballistic missiles, including China and Russia. To many, this may seem unlikely ever to occur. Ideally, our world leaders will have the skills to avoid such conflict in the future. While a peaceful resolution is always the desirable outcome, it is regrettably not the path always taken.
We must remember that history has shown time and time again how geopolitical issues can quickly alter the relationships between nations. In many cases, events have escalated rapidly and led to armed conflict. Look at the speed at which different nations were brought into the world wars for example.
Is it much of a stretch to think escalated trade wars with China could be the start of increased tensions between us? Stressors such as disputes over rights of passing through waterways in the South China Sea could place a further strain on the relationship between our nations and cause new discord leading eventually to armed conflict.
Of even more concern are nations looking to gain the capability to develop weapons systems that can reach the United States. North Korea and Iran are two such countries. While they may not possess the technology to do this now, how long will it be until they do? Both governments rebuke the United States for placing sanctions on them. Their leaders hold nothing back when speaking about their views against American world policy.
North Korea, in particular, has actively been testing delivery systems and claims their weapons can already reach American soil. It is believed the country already has a few nuclear weapons. Many of Kim Jong-un’s claims are often debunked, but there is still some truth there. While his saber-rattling tends to be overshadowed by coverage of al-Qaeda and ISIS, it should not be ignored.
With many possible threats not of a terrorist nature, the GMD is a necessary asset in the arsenal of the United States. It provides a level of protection that is vitally important.
A bonus to the system is that unlike the arms build-up of nuclear weapons during the Cold War, GMD is solely a defensive platform. The system does not pose a threat to others. As a defensive system, it does not create an environment where other nations feel they need to defend against themselves against it. GMD is a great deterrent.
The survivability factor for targets on American soil easily justifies the system’s cost. If an adversary is to launch a ballistic missile targeting the United States, it is unlikely that the target would be small and isolated. Targets worth attacking include major cities where industry supports the war machine.
Cities like New York and Los Angeles are much more likely targets for a ballistic missile attack. Think for a minute of the human toll and economic setback we would face if a nuclear weapon destroyed one of these two cities. When we weigh $40 billion against this loss, it appears to be a very justified expense.
When looking at where we need to focus our resources as a country, it is essential to think long-term. The GMD is an excellent example of how a narrow focus could lead one to believe the system is wasteful. Systems like the GMD need to be viewed with a broader field of view, a view more capable of seeing the entire scope of its usefulness. It is only then we understand how important a system GMD is to our national defense.

Research in the early stages of a construction project can reduce the risk of delays in the project and accumulating unforeseen expenses.
The Eden Group has offices in both the city of Los Angeles and Big Bear Lake allowing us to assist you in understanding the requirements of your project in the early stages. We have experience dealing with local agencies and researching local ordinances with respect to the California Building Code in order to determine if your project vision is attainable from a engineering perspective and a financial point of view. Our team has successfully prepared and permitted over 2,000 projects in almost every part of Southern California.
Experience in the civil engineering field matters when conducting research regarding requirements in the public right of way. Most new projects come with conditions that pertain to dedications, street improvements, underground utilities, fire department standards, and street lighting.
Zoning Research
What is Zoning? Every lot in the city has a specific designation when it comes to the required setbacks, allowable building heights, specified use, allowable building area, and other requirements specific to the lot. This information can be found in the zoning code or by meeting with a zoning official at your local building department. The zoning code consists of land use regulations set in place to promote safety, public health, consistency, and welfare of the people.
Planning Research
The planning department is usually the first stop when conducting research for a new project. The department is responsible for approving plans that adhere to the cities land use policies and regulations. They are also responsible for making sure that your project aligns with the minimum requirements in the zoning code and managing the historical building inventory. Our team is well versed in making sure that your project adheres to the general plan, specific plan, and overlay districts. Depending on the size of your project, a conditional use permit (CUP) might be required for project approval. The process is lengthy and requires expertise in understanding the preparation of the CUP package and assisting the project through the process until entitlement.

Lal’s Lullaby: In The Shadows Of The Shrine
In February 2017, Sehwan’s Lal Shahbaz Qalandar shrine was targeted by ISIS. Echoes of the suicide bombing still resonate among victims’ families
by Shaukat Korai

It’s been five years since the bomb blast at Qalandar Shahbaz’s shrine in Sehwan took place. The parents of Ayaz Ahmed Solangi, who died in the tragedy, are still distraught. They also suffer from high blood pressure and diabetes. “There is a picture of our son hanging on the wall of a room of the house. We gasp in grief every time we see it,” they say.
Ayaz Ahmed Solangi’s father has stopped visiting Lal Shahbaz Qalandar’s shrine after the tragedy, but his mother sometimes prays there. They say that they no longer have the courage to go to the place where their young son was brutally killed. Going to the shrine deepens the pain of their son’s memory.
After losing their son, both parents say they now feel dead inside. “There is no more desire to live, but the angel of death would arrive only at his assigned time,” they maintain.
Allah Dino Solangi and Nazeeran Mai, residents of Sehwan, Sindh Province, South Pakistan, now have two sons and six daughters. 24-year-old Ayaz was martyred in the suicide attack that struck the Lal Shahbaz shrine on February 16, 2017. At least 90 people were killed and 350 injured in the blast. ISIS claimed responsibility for the bombing.
Apart from Ayaz Ahmed Solangi, among the dead were Ikhtiar Ali Magnahar, Zeeshan Lakho, Abdul Aleem Pahanwar, Mohsin Ali Magnahar and Munir Ahmed Sheikh all of whom belonged to Sehwan, a town 300 km from Karachi, the largest city of Pakistan. The interior Sindh town is home to the mausoleum of Sufi saint Qalandar Lal Shahbaz, also known as Qalandar Shahbaz, Lal Shahbaz and Lal. On the occasion of his urs, devotion for him is also felt from Punjab, Sindh and other provinces as attendants from each are present in large numbers.
Most of the residents of Sehwan earn their livelihoods through Lal Shahbaz’s urs and the daily arrival of pilgrims.
People believe that all hopes and aspirations are fulfilled by visiting Lal. They also claim that Lal bestows upon childless couples. Here at the shrine, children and the elderly, women and men, join the dhamaal, which was taking place on the day of the blast. It was during the dhamaal that the blast took place, the imprint of which is still visible today.
Ayaz Ahmed Solangi’s parents maintain they can’t even consider heading towards the shrine after the incident. Ayaz’s father Allah Dino Solangi says: “I do not have the courage to go to the place where my young son was killed in the blast. When a young son dies, it seems that both of us have become a living corpse.”
He further underlines the mental toll of the incident. “It is difficult even to walk. Children bring us medicines, and we spend 24 hours at home.”
Their children are mostly unemployed: a daughter teaches in a private school and two sons work in a shop, barely making ends meet. There were many promises by the government of government jobs that still haven’t been delivered upon. In Sehwan, earning opportunities are few and far between. “Only the shrine offers work, but I am scared to send my sons to work there after Ayaz’s death,” says Allah Dino Solangi.
Ayaz’s parents say the only hope that keeps them alive is that of the marriage and employment of their other children. His mother gets emotional when talking about Ayaz. On the day of the incident, Ayaz went to the shrine from home two hours early, because he used to work at a shop there in the evening. From his earnings, he also contributed to the household and also managed his own expenses. His mother says before the explosion took place, he was talking to her about his marriage.
After losing their son, Ayaz Ahmed Solangi’s parents say they now feel dead inside. “There is no more desire to live, but the angel of death would arrive only at his assigned time,” they maintain
“He liked a girl,” she says. “He used to say, ‘Just get me married soon.’ I told him, ‘Just wait till the urs ends and then we will get you married.’” Ayaz’s marriage was set to take place after the urs, but it wasn’t to be.
When the blast occurred, Ayaz’s father says, he was in his house when he heard the loud explosion. The explosion was so loud that the house shook. He says that when he came out of the house, people were running in the streets. He was soon informed that there was an explosion at Lal’s shrine.
“My son was also at the shrine. I ran towards it, but there was nothing there. The police said that the dead and injured had been rushed to the hospital. I started to worry and then ran to the hospital. There were some relatives of mine at the hospital. They told me that Ayaz was injured. They told me to go home. As a father, what must my condition have been at that time?”
Trance Before The Storm
Two hundred feet from the mausoleum lives the family of Gulzar Ali Maganhar. They have been playing drums at Lal Qalandar for generations – it’s their main source of income. At the time of the blast, Gulzar Ali’s three sons were at the mausoleum, while he was home. The dhamaal was going on.
“I heard a loud noise. I had never heard such a sound. I was afraid of what must have happened. People thought the oil and gas companies that kept causing explosions in the mountains, must have been the source of that noise. But I couldn’t believe it.”

“When I came out of the house,” Gulzar continues, “the windows of Lal Shahbaz’s shrine were shattered. Then I ran to the big gate because my three sons were inside the shrine. I was scared.
“There were bomb blasts at shrines across the country in those days. Although, I was sure that terrorists could not do that at Lal’s shrine, but after the blasts like at the shrine of Shah Noorani, I sometimes felt afraid that someone would attack Lal, too. I was, however, still sure that nobody would do such a thing.”
As he tried to enter the shrine, Gulzar says, he was stopped. The gaddi nasheen of the dargah warned him not to go inside as the terrorists could detonate more bombs. Terrorists do this, he was told: when people gather, another terrorist detonates a second suicide bomb. Everybody was to stay outside.
“But as a father with three sons inside I couldn’t care less. It was the first time I forcibly pushed the gaddi nasheen and went inside the shrine.”
His son who was killed had gone to the shrine just 10 minutes before the blast. When Gulzar entered, bodies were scattered around: limbs and blood everywhere. He lost consciousness and later realised that they were the remnants of the terrorists. “I looked at each body and head one by one – ‘are they not my sons?’ – But none of them was my son. I later found out that one of my sons was no longer in this world.”
A scene from the blast site
Gulzar’s son was killed and a nephew of his was injured in the blast. Two of his sons survived, one of which, Javed Ali, could not hear afterwards for several months. After receiving treatment, he is now able to hear. The injured nephew’s father is now differently-abled due to which he is not able to earn. He just stands at the door of Lal’s shrine from 4 am to 10 am; tourists give him some money, with the help of which he runs his home.
The Sindh government had announced Rs1.5 million for the heirs of each of the deceased, Rs1 million for the severely injured, and Rs0.5 million for the less severely injured. The heirs of Ayaz Ahmed Solangi, Zeeshan Lakho, Ikhtiar Ali Maghanhar and Abdul Aleem Pahanwar were given Rs1.5 million each by the Sindh government.
Gulzar Ali used this money to get two daughters and a son married, and used Rs800,000 to buy a plot. His sons and daughters are educated but none has a job. The government had announced government jobs for the heirs of the deceased and the injured but no such job has been provided to Gulzar’s family yet. Keeping in view the requirements of the times, his children had been educated up till Intermediate but since they did not get government jobs, they had to find employment in this profession of their ancestors.
Gulzar Ali now has three sons and four daughters. He says even after the blast, he did not stop going to Lal’s shrine. Two of his sons are still working at the shrine and he also goes to the shrine himself. There is income. Government employees do not work at the shrine themselves, they hire private people. His sons also work for these employees; they also give them something.
“My son who died in the tragedy, he also used to serve at the shrine,” Gulzar says. “He was wise, made a good income, but what can be done, it had to happen. Now my two sons are at Lal’s shrine, and the third son is running a retail shop after an NGO gave him training and then gave retail goods worth Rs140,000. Work was going well but the coronavirus pandemic has made it difficult again.”
“My three sons were inside the shrine. I was scared. There were bomb blasts at shrines across the country in those days. Although, I was sure that terrorists could not do that at Lal’s shrine, but I sometimes felt afraid that someone would attack Lal, too. I was, however, still sure that nobody would do such a thing.”
Lal’s shrine had been shut for a long time due to the pandemic, and so had their income. The running of the whole house, then, became dependent on the retail shop. Expenses exceeded the income, so now the stock at the shop has shrunk and the revenue has also reduced significantly. Before the epidemic, the retail store had a stock of up to Rs150,000, which has now fallen to Rs20,000.
Fida Hussain Magnahar, father of Mohsin, who was injured in the accident, begs at the shrine. He says he was injured in a road accident. One of his legs was amputated due to the accident. His elder son used to work at the shrine but was injured so there was no income coming in; hence he started begging.
Food for children is also available at the shrine’s langar. The Sindh government provided Rs500,000 for the injured child, and Magnahar used the money for his daughter’s marriage and the treatment of his son. His children, too, are jobless despite being educated.
Lines Drawn With Blood
Munir Ahmed, also a resident of Sheikh Sehwan, got injured in the blast: he also worked privately at Lal’s shrine, cleaning and sweeping there. Visitors were also a source of income for him. However, after getting injured he could no longer work at the shrine. Now he runs a retail shop with the help of NGOs. He does not have much income but this shop helps him meet the expenses of the house.
Both of Munir’s legs were injured in the blast, one seriously wounded. Munir was also given Rs1 million by the Sindh government but most of the money was spent on his treatment. He still needs another surgery to recover completely, but due to his lack of resources it is not possible. Munir says when the blast took place, he was rushed to Sehwan Hospital. He says there is a lack of facilities in government hospitals in small towns. At that time, the situation was similar in the Sehwan Civil Hospital. The injured were later shifted to hospitals in Hyderabad and other major cities. The delay led to more loss of life.
Sehwan Hospital had few facilities in 2017. One ambulance was operational at the time and there was no supply of gas. It was not possible to provide medical aid to the injured of such a major accident in such a small hospital. Officials shifted the injured to hospitals in major cities.
“Now all facilities are available at Sehwan Hospital,” says Moinuddin Siddiqui, director of Syed Abdullah Shah Medical Institute Sehwan, which is named after former Sindh Chief Minister Syed Abdullah Shah. One hospital is not enough for a major accident like the blast. More than one hospital is needed. Though at present Sehwan Hospital has a lot of facilities – all the facilities that a teaching hospital should have.
At present, the hospital has 350 beds. There are 5,000 daily OPDs, specialist doctors are deployed, and there are 12 ambulances with gas supply. The ICU ward and ventilator are fully equipped with gas supply as well.
Munir Sheikh says due to the lack of treatment facilities offered at Sehwan Hospital, he was admitted to the Combined Military Hospital (CMH) in Hyderabad. He remained in the hospital for 21 days. The treatment was provided free of cost. He continued to travel from Sehwan to Hyderabad for treatment. The Sindh government’s Rs1 million aid was mostly spent on treatment, with some used to meet domestic expenses. Eventually, he had to take out a loan.
Due to his injury, Munir was not able to earn and had to stay home. Later, the Sindh government gave him a government job on a contract in the Auqaaf (endowment) department. But after 18 months, the job was terminated, despite the Sindh government’s announcement that those possessing a Sindh domicile would be given government jobs.
Both of Munir’s legs were injured in the blast, one seriously wounded. Munir was also given Rs1 million by the Sindh government but most of the money was spent on his treatment. He still needs another surgery to recover completely, but due to his lack of resources it is not possible
Locals say in 2017 the security arrangements at Lal’s shrine were insufficient keeping in view the frequency of the terrorism and attacks on shrines taking place in the country at the time. 40 personnel are required to be on duty but there were only a few on duty, then. One of the security personnel at the time could only see with one eye. He is still on duty. A massive, irreversible, loss was caused by such security arrangements.
Now, there is strict security at the shrine: iron lines have been drawn out at both the doors, making it impossible for visitors to enter without making a line. Then, they are also checked.
According to security in-charge Aziz Hussain Jatoi, two control rooms have been set up for monitoring. Drone cameras are also used for monitoring, while 166 CCTV cameras have been installed and 130 personnel, including 20 women, are on duty in three shifts. All personnel are commando trained.
The Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) arrested Nadir Ali Jhakrani alias Murshid and Furqan alias Farooq Brohi on charges of facilitating the Sehwan bombing. According to the CTD, Nadir Ali was leading the terror attack, and Babar Brohi, from Balochistan’s Mastung town was the bomber.
The CTD claims Nadir Ali had confessed to the joint investigation team that he belonged to ISIS, having worked earlier for Lashkar-e-Jhangvi. His confessional statement concedes that he was involved in the Sehwan bomb blast.
The two arrested accused were tried in an anti-terrorism court in Karachi. During the court proceedings 29 witnesses recorded their statements, many of whom were police officials, whereas two witnesses privately identified the accused as the ones seen in the CCTV video before the blast. The court sentenced Nadir Ali and Furqan to death in May 2019 and fined them Rs14 million.

Sadyr Japarov, a nationalist politician who until last week was serving an 11-year jail term on kidnapping charges, has been confirmed as president of Kyrgyzstan after his predecessor resigned following protests.
Sooronbay Jeenbekov stepped down on Thursday after violent demonstrations erupted over disputed parliamentary election results.
Japarov, who was sprung from jail during the protests and later appointed prime minister by Jeenbekov in a failed attempt to quell the unrest, declared himself leader of the central Asian nation.
On Friday, lawmakers said he would lead the country until presidential elections next year, while remaining prime minister.
“Never before in the history of the country have the powers of president, prime minister and parliament all been held in the hands of one person. The people are waiting for you to meet their expectations,” said Omurbek Tekebayev, the leader of a parliamentary faction.
Japarov was sentenced over the kidnapping of a public official in 2013, but fled to Kazakhstan and was arrested in 2017. He has described the charges against him as politically motivated.
Kyrgyzstan has been in crisis since the start of this month after allegations of vote-buying in parliamentary polls brought thousands to the streets of the capital, Bishkek. At least one person was killed and more than 1,000 injured in clashes between protesters and the police.
Protesters stormed some government buildings, while authorities deployed troops to Bishkek and imposed a curfew. Jeenbekov initially said he would stay on until fresh elections could be held, but later said he did not want “to go down in the history of Kyrgyzstan as a president who allowed bloodshed and shooting on its people”.
The crisis has worried Kyrgyzstan’s ally Russia, which has seen growing unrest in areas it traditionally considers its sphere of influence. Post-election protests are continuing in Belarus, along with deadly clashes in the breakaway Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan.
Kyrgyzstan has been dogged by political volatility for much of its three decades of independence. A landlocked republic of 6.5 million people, three presidents have now been unseated by unrest since it gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991.
Jeenbekov came to power in 2017 as the handpicked successor of the previous president, Almazbek Atambayev, who reportedly expected to be able to control him and continue to rule from behind the scenes.
However the new president turned on his former mentor, who was arrested and sentenced to 11 years in prison in June. Atambayev was freed by protesters this month but later rearrested.

Nuclear tango in Afghan shadow
The discussions over a possible U.S.-Pak. nuclear deal reminds us of the 1980s, when the Reagan administration deliberately overlooked Pakistan’s clandestine nuclear activities. Notwithstanding its current troubles in Afghanistan, Washington should steer clear of repeating past mistakes.

As Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif visits the U.S., it is clear that the U.S. and Pakistan are looking for some kind of a ‘nuclear deal’ and that the U.S. involvement in Afghanistan once again provides the strategic justification. There is a sense of déjà vu, this exercise is reminiscent of the time of Ronald Reagan’s presidency. The outcome then proved to be counterproductive in the long run: by the time Soviet Union withdrew from Afghanistan and the U.S. re-imposed nuclear sanctions in 1990, Pakistan was already in possession of nuclear weapons, U.S.-Pakistan relations had gone into a downward spiral and, within Pakistan, the jihadi -sectarian virus was taking root.
The first indication that Pakistan’s nuclear ambitions had again entered U.S.’s Afghan calculus was the Washington Post article (on October 6) by David Ignatius, who was writing about the takeover of Kunduz town in northern Afghanistan following a audacious attack by the Taliban. It was there that Mr. Ignatius suggested a nuclear deal with Pakistan, similar, though not identical to the 2008 India-U.S. Civil Nuclear Agreement, could emerge as a “diplomatic blockbuster” when Mr. Sharif visited Washington. Predictably, the White House provided an ambiguous response, neither confirming nor denying the report.
On October 15, David Sanger, another veteran journalist at the New York Times , also wrote along similar lines about a possible deal which would put constraints on Pakistan’s rapidly growing nuclear arsenal. If so, he said this would reflect a considerable broadening of U.S.-Pakistan nuclear talks whic had so far been restricted to ensuring security of Pakistan’s nuclear assets.
This idea is not new. Fuelled by Pakistan’s unhappiness about the Nuclear Suppliers Group’s (NSG) exceptional waiver given to India in 2008, a number of Western non-proliferation experts had been suggesting that one way to persuade Pakistan to stop going ahead with Tactical Nuclear Weapons would be to offer it a similar deal. They felt such a deal would also address the country’s obsession with having ‘parity’ with India. These experts have also been keen purveyors of the ‘South Asia as a nuclear flashpoint’ hypothesis.
In 2014, Mark Fitzpatrick, earlier with U.S. State Department and now with International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), a London based think tank, came out with a report titled “Overcoming Pakistan’s Nuclear Dangers”. A couple of months ago, Michael Krepon (Stimson Centre) and Toby Dalton (Carnegie Endowment) co-authored a paper, “A Normal Nuclear Pakistan”. The authors stated that Pakistan’s objective is a ‘civilian nuclear cooperation deal’ which would require an NSG waiver. Since India’s entry into the NSG is likely to be blocked by China, one way out would be to integrate Pakistan too into the international non-proliferation architecture and ‘put behind’ its murky proliferation past.
A second rationale is that with the introduction of short-range nuclear capable missiles (the 60-km range Nasr), described as a Tactical Nuclear Weapon, Pakistan has lowered the nuclear threshold and shifted from ‘minimum credible deterrence’ to ‘full spectrum deterrence’. Mr. Krepon and Mr. Dalton suggested that in return for such a deal, Islamabad should accept certain constraints. It should eschew Tactical Nuclear Weapons, shift back to strategic deterrence, maintain its arsenal in ‘recessed’ (de-alerted) mode, sign the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT) without waiting for India to do the same, and stop blocking the negotiations in Geneva on an Fissile Material Cut-off Treaty (FMCT).
There had been few takers for the idea. Pakistan indicated that it would be unwilling to accept any restrictions on its nuclear posture and underlined the need for ‘full spectrum deterrence’.
Unrealistic demand for parity
The factors that contributed to the U.S.-India deal were qualitatively different. The key drivers included: a growing strategic convergence, commercial and economic interests, India’s clean track-record on non-proliferation, a stable democratic polity and the need for nuclear power as a clean energy resource to meet India’s growing energy demands.
These factors did not hold in Pakistan’s case and in any event, China had addressed Pakistan’s nuclear power demands by repeatedly assuring Pakistan of continuing its nuclear cooperation. At last count, China is building Chashma III and IV (2x340 MW) and KANUPP II and III (2x1000 MW), with options to build another five, all under concessional financing.
However, later, the Afghanistan factor entered the equation. With just another fifteen months left for the Obama administration to complete its term, the goal of a clean and managed exit for the U.S. troops seemed difficult to manage. The peace process between the Afghan government and the Taliban had stalled. President Ashraf Ghani was no longer convinced that Pakistan was serious about delivering on the talks with the Taliban. Suicide bombings and Taliban attacks had gone up with the Kunduz attack being a rude wake-up call. Within the U.S., there was a growing feeling that a premature U.S. exit would rapidly undo the gains that had been made in Afghanistan; this has already forced President Obama to postpone the departure of 5500 U.S. troops from 2015-end to 2016-end. Pakistan had become indispensable and needed to be persuaded to be cooperative; but the question was, ‘How’?
Peter Lavoy, who had dealt with South Asia in the Department of Defence (DoD) and in National Intelligence Council earlier, had taken over as Senior Director in the National Security Council (NSC). He was joined by Joshua White, formerly with the Stimson Centre. Both had spent many years working on non-proliferation issues and given their backgrounds, it is hardly surprising that a nuclear deal with Pakistan became a seductive option.
A similar logic had driven U.S. policy earlier during the Reagan years with disastrous consequences. Military and economic assistance to Pakistan had been severely curtailed in 1979 in view of disclosures about Pakistan’s clandestine uranium enrichment and reprocessing activities. General Zia-ul-Haq’s military takeover and former Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto’s execution had added to the disenchantment. However, with President Reagan’s election, Pakistan emerged as the front line state in U.S.’s covert war in Afghanistan against the Soviet Union. Nuclear sanctions were waived in ‘national interest’; instead, a six year special assistance package of $3.2 billion was announced in 1981.
Mistakes under Reagan and Bush Evidence continued to mount about Pakistan accelerating its clandestine nuclear activities as it proceeded apace with its enrichment programme. In 1984, three Pakistani nationals were indicted in U.S. for illegally exporting nuclear related materials and equipments. Similar incidents were reported from Germany and Switzerland. The Solarz Amendment, championed by U.S. Congressman Stephen Solarz, kicked in to block assistance but the Reagan administration, obsessed with Afghanistan, overlooked Pakistan’s nuclear activities and provided yet another waiver. Faced with growing pressure from the non-proliferation lobby, the Pressler Amendment, sponsored by Senator Larry Pressler, was adopted in 1985 under which the U.S. President certified annually to the Congress that Pakistan did not possess a nuclear device and that the continued economic and military assistance was necessary in the ‘national interest’.
In 1989, the Soviet Union withdrew from Afghanistan and in 1990, faced with definitive CIA reports about Pakistan have crossed all nuclear red lines, President George Bush (Sr.) was unable to provide the certification required under the Pressler Amendment, ending U.S. economic and military assistance. But under the Afghan shadow, the U.S. willingness to overlook Pakistan’s clandestine activities and Dr. A.Q. Khan’s ‘nuclear Wal-Mart’ enabled Pakistan to become a nuclear weapon state.
After 9/11, Pakistan again emerged as a front line state, this time as part of the ‘global war on terror’. Nevertheless, by 2009, there was growing scepticism in the U.S. about Pakistan’s intentions. All terror attacks, in the West or elsewhere, whether successful or thwarted, were traced back to Pakistani madrassa s and training camps; Osama bin Laden’s presence in Abbottabad just reinforced U.S. misgivings.
However, Pakistan had received economic and military assistance amounting to $19 billion since 2002, with an additional $13 billion as reimbursements from the Coalition Support Fund for allowing transit to Afghanistan and use of its ports and airports for coalition troops and equipment transfers. However, this has not helped Mr. Obama to manage a responsible exit from Afghanistan. The investment in a National Unity Government, led by President Ghani in Kabul, has failed to deliver despite Mr. Ghani’s overtures to Pakistan which have damaged him domestically.
The U.S.-Pakistan nuclear tango in the 1980s took place during the Cold War. Today, India-U.S. relations are qualitatively different and successive leaders in both countries have contributed to realising the potential of the newfound strategic partnership. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has gone out of his way to build a personal rapport with President Obama, reflected in the frequent summit-level interactions. Foreign Secretary S. Jaishankar’s personal involvement in the India-U.S. nuclear deal makes him a trusted figure in the Washington circles. However, recent U.S. moves in Afghanistan, like promoting peace talks with the Taliban on any terms, pushing the Afghan government towards unrealistic concessions and turning a blind eye to Pakistan Army’s continued policy of distinguishing between ‘good terrorists’ and ‘bad terrorists’, have created serious doubts about the strength of U.S.-India engagement. Practically, the Obama administration will be unable to deliver what Pakistan wants in the limited time that it has (the Indian deal took more than three years, 2005-08, to reach fruition) but this short-sighted policy will certainly have an adverse impact on India-U.S. relations in the long term. As the French have say: Plus ca change, plus c’est la meme chose (The more things change, the more they remain the same).

OVERCOME IMPOSTER
Have you ever felt that you don’t belong? Or are you convinced that other people think that you’re more competent than you actually are? Potentially, you may be suffering from imposter syndrome. Continue reading to find out more about this fairly common and treatable mental health condition.
People who have impostor syndrome often believe that their colleagues, friends, or family believe that they’re more competent and experienced than they are in reality. To put it simply, imposter syndrome is when you feel like a fraud and like you don’t belong and worry that you’ll be found out at any moment. Your income level, age, or expertise isn’t important in determining this feeling.
Psychologists Suzanna Imes and Pauline Rose Clance first came up with the term impostor syndrome in the 1970s. Initially, these psychologists assumed that it only deeply affected women who were high-achievers in the workplace, but as awareness grew about this condition it was found that it can impact anyone.
There are many different symptoms of imposter syndrome, and it can depend on each person. Before we take a look at some of the potential symptoms, keep in mind that it’s important to talk with a health expert if you have any mental health concerns.
Some symptoms include over-achieving, anxiety, and putting yourself down over your performance. On top of this, even if a person achieves something in their personal or work life, they will constantly think their success came from luck, chance, or something external and unrelated to them. If someone has imposter syndrome, they will over-prepare for work or social events and even if they succeed, that experience won’t affect them internally. It doesn’t matter how many times things go well, they will always feel like they don’t belong, they’re phony, and it’s only a matter of time before colleagues or friends will find out. It’s a constant flow of social anxiety that can prevent a person from internalizing their success and developing confidence.
Imposter syndrome is also connected to feelings of self-doubt and of being an intellectual fraud which may lead to failure. Introversion and trait anxiety associated with imposter syndrome is made worse when one is harshly over criticized.
What causes imposter syndrome?
Imposter syndrome can take root from a very young age. When a person gets negative feedback from family or friends that they’re not good at certain things, this can set the perspective of yourself in a way that’s very difficult to change. An episode of imposter syndrome can also be triggered by life changes, such as starting a new job, degree, or moving to a new place.
Feeling like an imposter can lead to depression and self-sabotage, and the effect of this condition may bleed into other parts of your life. It’s believed that over 70% of people may experience an episode of imposter syndrome in their life, this means that it’s quite a common condition, and not many people talk about it.
I can give the impression that I’m more competent than I really am.
When people praise me for something I’ve accomplished, I’m afraid I won’t be able to live up to their expectations of me in the future.
I’m afraid people important to me may find out that I’m not as capable as they think I am.
Sometimes I feel or believe that my success in life or my job has resulted from some kind of error.
I often worry about not succeeding with a project or examination, even though others around me have considerable confidence that I will do well. (Excerpts taken from the Clance Imposter Phenomenon Scale)

December 4, 2022 2 min read 7
Britain’s Got Talent star Audrey Leybourne has died aged 95.
The veteran performer, who auditioned for the talent show back in 2018, died early Thursday morning. A cause of death has not yet been revealed.
Audrey’s death was confirmed in a Facebook statement posted by Rev Simon Grigg, the vicar of her local church.
Simon shared a heartfelt tribute to Audrey and said she was a “remarkable person” who was “much loved” by the local community.
Alongside a picture of Audrey, the vicar wrote: “It is with deep sadness that we report the death of our much loved friend Audrey Leybourne, who died early on Thursday morning.
Audrey wowed the judges when she appeared on Britain’s Got Talent
She died aged 95
“She was a remarkable person, a real ‘trouper’ of an actress (starting her career with Sir Donald Wolfit, no less) and a much loved member of St. Paul’s.”
Simon also shared Audrey’s final message to her friends.
He wrote: “She has a last message for you all. When she was in hospital two weeks ago, she said to me, ‘If I pop off, tell everyone I don’t regret a thing. I’ve had a wonderful life’.
“Quite a statement. Quite a lady. Quite a Christian.
The actress was described as ‘remarkable’
“We will, of course, let everyone know when we have details of her funeral. May she rest in peace and rise in glory. Amen.”
Audrey was a showbiz star and had acted in TV programmes Stella and Doctors, as well as making her appearance on the 12th series of Britain’s Got Talent.
She impressed the judges with her rendition of I Wanna Be Loved By You and her cheeky personality won her the hearts of viewers.

Asked by judge Amanda Holden if she was married, Audrey replied: “No, I was in love many, many times… 22 gentleman.”
Audrey said she had no regrets in life
Her comment saw her playfully labelled as a “minx”.
Following her stint on the ITV show, Audrey appeared in a York pantomime and had a two-episode appearance on Carters Get Rich.
In her career, the performer starred as a member of dance troupe The Roly Polys, who appeared as regulars on Les Dawson’s BBC show during the 1980s.
At the age of 90, Audrey appeared in her first pantomime playing Potty T Potts in Beauty and the Beast.

Come this Sunday, Coimbatore’s streets are sure to be filled with the colours of the rainbow. The city is set to host its first official Pride march, organised by the Sahodari Foundation.
Kalki Subramaniam, the Founder of Sahodari Foundation and a transgender activist, who is at the forefront in this initiative, tells TNM that though a Pride march was organised in Coimbatore in 2010, it just had nine participants back then. “In these 10 years, a lot has happened. The legalisation of the transgender identity by the Supreme court and the decriminalisation of consensual sex under Section 377 are milestones for LGBTQI+ activists and organisations. They are reasons to celebrate now,” she says.
Sahodari Foundation has been at the forefront of the queer movement in Coimbatore since 2008 and this year, the Coimbatore Rainbow Pride Festival was conducted from July 25. As part of this month-long festival, panel discussions, art exhibitions and film screenings were held in various places across the city.
Kalki says that though Coimbatore city is well known for its nature and culture, when it comes to issues related to the queer community, awareness is quite limited. “Coimbatore needs more awareness especially among the youth. That is why Sahodari Foundation organised all these events (of Coimbatore Rainbow Pride Festival) in colleges rather than hold them in public spaces because we believe that young people can change the world,” she says.

Emphasising that a Pride march is not just to celebrate but also to educate people, Kalki says that Coimbatore Pride is for everybody who believe in love, equal opportunities, equality, anti-discrimination, anti-bullying, anti-rape and anti-violence. This time around, the Pride Festival has also put focus on queer persons with disabilities.
“This is an awareness march to create a support system for young kids, especially teenagers, who feel they are different. It is important that we save them from suicide and that we teach our young people to not bully kids who seem different,” she explains. She also says that the issues related to the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Bill, 2019 will also be spoken about in the march.
Touching upon the tragic fact that in many cases where youngsters come out as trans to their families, they tend to be disowned and abandoned, Kalki says that the Pride march is basically to sensitise the society how wrong this practice is. “I do not want them to be forced to beg or do sex work. They need to be included in their families, only then their mental and physical health will be good and they will be able to continue their studies,” she says. Pointing out that the college students who were present at the film screenings and discussions were open-minded and were willing to have an informed discussion about queer communities, she says that the response to Coimbatore Pride has been overwhelming.
The Pride march in Coimbatore will start at 9 am from CCMC North Zone office and end at the VOC Park East Gate on October 13, Sunday.

World Antibiotic Awareness Week: Key takeaways from new FAO report to reduce livestock antimicrobial use through nutrition
Exclusive interview with Dr. Coen Smits, primary author of new FAO report on nutritional strategies to reduce global antimicrobial use in livestock
By: Sarah Mikesell
Coen Smits, Global R&D Director at Trouw Nutrition and first author of the FAO report
As the primary author, how was this almost 100-page report initiated?
The FAO invited four experts from around the world, including me, to write a paper focused on how nutrition can help reduce antibiotic use. I welcomed this opportunity to collaborate with co-authors Prof. John Patience from the Iowa State University in the USA, Prof. Defa Li from the China Agricultural University in China and Prof. Leo den Hartog from Wageningen University. World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) and the FAO clearly are committed to improving food security, food safety, sustainable agriculture, and working with animal health to reduce the risk of antimicrobial resistance. They asked us to develop a report that could be used as a guide for what the possibilities are from the nutrition side.
It is important to note that the key to reducing antibiotic use in animals is a multidisciplinary approach requiring an investment in a strong biosecurity plan, a well-designed animal vaccine program that is tailor-made for the farm and the specific pathogen challenges they face, implementing best farming practices, especially related to health and welfare, and utilizing nutrition to prevent animal diseases in swine, poultry and ruminants.
What are three takeaways about the state of antibiotic reduction efforts in herds and flocks in 2021?
In the past decade, we have made really good progress worldwide in reducing antibiotic use in farm animals. This clearly demonstrates that it is feasible to reduce antibiotic use significantly. The other good news is that in those countries where it’s combined with good monitoring of antimicrobial resistance, like in the Netherlands, Denmark and a few other countries, they also see a reduction in antimicrobial resistance with the same or even better technical results.
The first takeaway is that we’re making progress. However, as demand for animal protein increases, production levels are also expected to increase. Therefore, the use of veterinary antimicrobials in the world is predicted to increase by 11.5% from 2017 to 2030 in swine, poultry and ruminants (Tiseo et al, 2020). Thus, we are not there yet, and more work is needed. Of note, a similar trend in antimicrobial use is predicted for humans, including a 15% increase from 2015 to 2030.
Secondly, we should expect to see variation in reduction between countries. Some countries have reached the Netherland’s state of very low antibiotic use. Now, it’s much more difficult to further reduce antibiotic use than when we started about 10 years ago. We have already reduced antibiotic use in swine and poultry by 70%, so additional reduction will be difficult. If animals are sick, we do need to be able to apply antibiotics in a responsible way to ensure their health and wellbeing. However, there are still many countries where it can be expected that animal protein demand will increase significantly over the coming years and where we need to establish best practices to control the use of antibiotics, especially critically important antibiotics for human health. In these countries, antibiotic use is often neither reported nor tracked nationwide, so there are still opportunities to lower use there.
Lastly, there are many opportunities to work on animal health with prophylactic nutrition to help prevent diseases and infections. Nutrition should be a targeted approach towards the animal species and subspecies you're working with that is tailormade to the specific farm. Start with the most important - having high feed and water quality and biosecurity in place to control microbial quality. Next, focus on nutritional composition to prevent disorders in swine and poultry. For example, work to reduce the risk for diarrhea in piglets or wet litter in broilers by reducing the protein level, which is a risk factor for both. We can also modify the starch, fat and fiber levels in the feed. Starch is usually safer in a diet because it is less susceptible to impaired digestibility when animals are exposed to a disease or gastrointestinal disorder. Coarse particles and coarse fibers are important in the diet because they have bulking properties that stimulate the gastrointestinal tract. The area of feed additives, like organic acids, prebiotics, probiotics, phytogenics, and other functional ingredients have been shown to contribute to health. We can reduce the need for antibiotics in a profitable way by combining feed, farm and health advice into an antibiotic reduction program, working in close collaboration with the customer.
What are some practices from nations such as Denmark and the Netherlands that can be practically applied in regions seeking to reduce antibiotics?
Denmark and the Netherlands have secured a significant commitment from all stakeholders to work on antibiotic reduction together. In the Netherlands, the government, industry, veterinarians, farmers and scientific groups came together and committed to reduce antibiotic use. Then they started to build several programs to reduce antibiotic use. It became all about the measures - investing in biosecurity, in well-designed and targeted vaccine programs, and applying best farming and health practices across different areas and nutritional measures that support the gastrointestinal defense system. A more radical measure in the Netherlands was the agreement made by the feed industry to ban the use of medicated feed.
During the first few years of the program, it was not easy to maintain the same technical performance of the animals. But now we have adjusted and can keep productivity and animal health high with the antibiotic reduction program that we have implemented. In the first five years, the Netherlands achieved a reduction of 60% of antibiotics in swine and poultry. Since 2015, we’ve added another 10%, so we're now 70% below the reference year of 2009. Other countries have followed a similar approach a few years later and are now very successful as well. China, the US and many EU countries have realized significant reductions in antibiotic use in the range of 30% to 60% in recent years.
How has research on functional nutrition contributed to reducing antibiotic consumption in livestock production?
We have made fantastic progress over the last few decades by enabling new technologies. For example, the 16S rRNA sequencing technology, and nowadays even whole genome sequencing, are giving us much more insight into the composition of the gastrointestinal microbiota. Trouw Nutrition was among the first in animal nutrition research to use this technology about 14 years years ago. It provides a profile or picture of the whole microbiota composition in the gut of a chicken, pig or calf or a human. We started this work together with a human medical group at an academic hospital, a food research institute and Wageningen University. The technology has given us much more insight in recent years about what is a good microbiota and what's the picture of a bad or compromised microbiota. It tells us what kind of bacteria pop up that you don't want to see and which are beneficial groups typically seen in healthy, well performing animals. From a nutrition standpoint, this information has been hugely important in steering our microbiota research efforts.
A second area of research is around a better understanding of the critical factors of good barrier function. Normally, the gut wall acts as a highly selective barrier, taking up nutrients and keeping potentially harmful bacteria outside. New insights have been found to enforce the barrier function by nutrition and prevent ‘leakages’. Furthermore, we are exploring the immune system in terms of immune competence. We are trying to avoid an overreacting immune system because that will create inflammation. So, we are learning about the balance between giving the right stimulus and not overstimulating.
The insights have led on our side to a well balanced and effective feed additive program to improve the microbial quality of feed and water, prevent uptake of harmful bacteria, support digestibility, strengthen gut barrier function, stabilize microbiota and support the natural defense system. There is no silver bullet feed additive. A synergistic approach has proven to be most successful.
Trouw Nutrition also created the LifeStart program, using the premise that early life sets life performance and health. We have seen that the first hours, days and weeks after the hatch of a chick or the birth of a piglet or calf are very critical for the development of the intestinal microbiota and the development of the immune competence of animals. With special nutrition in the first days or weeks of life, we can steer the animal in a desired direction that allows it to become more competent and productive later. Animals will perform better, and they will have better immunity, leading them to fight diseases and infections more efficiently and fall ill less often during their lifetime. Imprinting is also occurring even before birth. We are actively studying what the impact of the mother and her nutrition on the viability and the health of the offspring
What emerging areas are researchers focusing on to develop interventions that manage poultry, pig, beef and dairy production challenges without antibiotics?
In emerging research, there are opportunities to look at nutritional ways to reduce the need for antibiotics for respiratory diseases, not only for gastrointestinal diseases. Research groups are looking at the communication between the gut, the immune system and the lungs. If we can mobilize the immune competence in the gut using nutrition solutions, what might benefit the health of the lungs? This is a very interesting, new area where we believe the industry can make important progress. The same counts for nutritional measures to reduce stress, as stress impacts the functioning of the defense system in the gut and lungs.
Another emerging research area is rapid diagnostics. We now see many more opportunities for on-farm diagnostics that allow farmers and veterinarians to diagnose more effectively a specific health challenge on the farm and link that with nutritional advice or a strategy to improve the situation in that particular farm. This is very positive for antibiotic reduction programs.
From a growth phase perspective, what are some life stages that present an opportunity to reduce the need for antibiotics throughout an animal's life?
In pig and poultry production, we mainly apply antibiotics in young animals since they are the most prone to falling sick, but there are also specific diseases occurring later in life that also need to be tackled. A piglet or chick is typically born with some disease protection from the mother. Piglets receive immunoglobulins from the sow’s colostrum, and in birds, the yolk sac contains immunoglobulins. However, this disease protection disappears after a few days, while the animal is not fully capable of fighting off bacteria or viruses just yet. This period is called the immunity gap in young animals. It's essentially when the animal loses its protection from the mother and is not immune-competent enough in development to tackle disease risks.
During this immunity gap, it is critical to manage everything well in terms of best farming practices, nutrition and health care. The immunity gap in chicks occurs about two to three weeks post-hatch. In piglets, the immunity gap is at three to six weeks of age which is exactly when piglets are weaned. From an economic point and productivity point of view, it might be the right time to wean, but from an animal health and disease resistance point of view, it's not an ideal time. In calves, the immunity gap occurs in a similar period after birth as in piglets. The immunity gap not only counts for gastrointestinal diseases, but also for respiratory infections. In the Netherlands, we have experienced that it's more challenging to reduce antibiotic use in calves than in swine and in poultry because calves are more exposed to respiratory health issues.
What species present the greatest opportunities to reduce antibiotics using nutritional interventions?
Young animals are key, but if you zoom in, there are still some diseases which we have difficulties solving with nutrition. Thus, we need to focus on possible interventions for those specific diseases. I'll mention two examples:
Streptococcus suis in piglets: This is an important disease worldwide in piglets which is still very difficult to find successful nutritional intervention methods. Quite a lot of antibiotics are used to combat this disease, even critically important antibiotics.
Dysbacteriosis and necrotic enteritis (NE) in broiler chickens: While the two conditions are distinct with different symptoms and effects on animal health, they are often confused. NE is an enteric disease characterized by patches of necrotic tissue on the intestinal epithelium and is caused by specific types of Clostridium perfringens, producing the toxins responsible for the necrotic lesions. While the prevalence of NE is low worldwide (with a slightly higher prevalence in some regions), its presence always causes high economic losses due to necrotic lesions or even higher mortality. The term NE has been widely misused to describe dysbacteriosis without any necrotic lesions. Dysbacteriosis, also called dysbiosis, is defined as the imbalance of microbiota in the intestine, e.g. a shift in composition or distribution of the microbiota. The prevalence of dysbacteriosis is high, and its severity varies around the world. It is causing significant performance losses worldwide, mainly due to its high prevalence. It is a multifactorial disease and triggers can range from an infectious change (coccidiosis, viral enteritis, …) to management issues such as oversupplying nutrients. This is an interesting research area because often, you have preceding, primary subclinical infections or other intestinal stress factors that lead to an imbalance in the microbiota – a dysbacteriosis. This situation may affect the gut barrier function and impair performance. In turn, this imbalance may trigger specific pathogenic Clostridium perfringens bacteria to cause an infection that leads to NE. While some dietary interventions can help, it’s a health problem we still need to learn more about.
What are some promising research efforts underway to accelerate efforts to reduce antibiotics in livestock production?
The industry has quite a bit of research underway on novel feed additives or functional ingredients in general, including novel probiotics, prebiotics, phytogenics or synergistic combinations thereof for example organic acids or medium chain fatty acids. I briefly would like to mention postbiotics which are receiving more attention nowadays. Postbiotic includes a preparation or fermented material with beneficial microbes and then the microbes are inactivated, so it’s no longer a live microorganism. The bioactives produced by the microbes exert gut health-promoting effects. This is an interesting new functional ingredient space to further explore.
Another exciting area is controlled-release technology. Such targeted delivery technologies enable bioactives to be released at the site where you want it delivered. We have, for example, one slow-release medium chain fatty acid that is specifically released in the second half of the small intestine. Normally, medium chain fatty acids are absorbed in the first part of the small intestine. The technology is enabling us to stabilize the microbiota in the lower parts of the gastrointestinal tract.
How does the current regulatory framework help or hinder the use of nutritional interventions?
Animal nutrition is generally regulated by animal feed legislation, and animal health interventions are regulated by veterinary legislation. A fine line separates the two. Animal nutrition solutions intended to prevent, cure, treat or mitigate disease conditions are considered drugs under veterinary legislation in most jurisdictions. This is a significant limitation due to the cost and time required to receive veterinary registration of new products.
The adoption of existing and new dietary interventions will undoubtedly reduce the need for antibiotics. Regulatory recognition of the preventive effects of feed additives used in animal health should further contribute toward reducing antibiotic resistance. A new regulatory environment is needed that is balanced and encourages the implementation of new technologies. New legislation should be considered.
One regulatory option to consider that is currently being explored in the European Union would be to establish a regulatory framework that allows feed additives to make claims about their beneficial effects on animal health and welfare. This approach to feed regulation would avoid overlaps with veterinary legislation and would be more agile for the adoption of innovations and solutions in animal nutrition that contribute to animal health.

Boathouse in Kitchener could reopen as live music venue, restaurant next spring
Report will be presented to council Monday night

KITCHENER — The shuttered Boathouse in Victoria Park could reopen to live music lovers next spring.
City staff have identified a preferred proposal from Walkinshaw Holdings Inc. that would see the city-owned venue’s revival as an entertainment spot and restaurant, with paid local live music at least two nights a week and locally-sourced food and drink.
The report will be presented to council Monday night; future council approval will be required for a lease agreement.
The Boathouse has been closed since 2019.
“When you look at the group that’s come together with this proposal, coupled with some of the elements that are being considered, it really has the opportunity to see this much-beloved facility return to its old glory,” Mayor Berry Vrbanovic said Friday.
Walkinshaw plans to make “a significant investment in the facility to offer a waterfront experience unique to Waterloo Region,” said a release from the city.
Upgrades to the interior and main entrance, expansion of the outdoor patio and enhancement of the venue’s lake views are all proposed.
The work will require approvals and review from other agencies, so a final agreement isn’t expected until later this year, the city said.
Staff are recommending a 10-year lease with an option to renew for an additional five years.
Walkinshaw Holdings would also establish a local arts fund and form a community advisory committee to ensure that Boathouse programming is inclusive and diverse, the release said.
Walkinshaw Holdings is comprised of a team of local entrepreneurs with experience in a wide range of sectors including restaurants, entertainment, marketing, fundraising, business and technology.
Those involved include James Barr, Amber French, Kurtis McBride, Shawn Flanagan, Sean Goodchild, Taylor Jones and Corey Watterson.
“We’re beyond excited to reimagine such an iconic venue. This is a chance to recognize that heritage isn’t just who we were, but also who we are and who we want to be,” Barr said in the release.
“Kitchener is a diverse and growing community; The Boathouse, at its heart, should be a place where everyone feels at home.”
Vrbanovic said the Walkinshaw group brings an encouraging breadth of experience to the project.
“I think we have a group there that has proven themselves to both be visionary and have proven business success.”
The city said two proposals were received in a request for proposals that closed in January — from Walkinshaw Holdings and Cultura Café.
“I would have loved to have seen additional ones, but I think we need to recognize that we’re coming out of the pandemic. It’s been a difficult time for the hospitality and arts and culture sectors,” Vrbanovic said.
Minimum requirements for bidders included at least five years’ experience in food service and/or entertainment, and a minimum of $300,000 in working capital.
“I’m really looking forward to it opening again,” ward Coun. Debbie Chapman said Friday. “It’s a great spot and a great venue.”
Veteran musician wants Boathouse reopened for live music
The Boathouse closed abruptly on Halloween in 2019, after tenants left five years into a 10-year lease.
At the time, the city said it would review the future of the Boathouse and determine current community needs.
The city has made a significant investment in the building, spending $410,000 to renovate the site and another $350,000 in patio and walkway upgrades before it reopened in 2015. In 2020 it spent $158,000 more on a new roof.
The popular venue seats about 150 people and another 135 on the patio.
It was originally built to store canoes and as a shelter for people putting on their skates.
Over the years, it has served as a tea house, a pub and a bar with live music.

US regulators excommunicated Theranos' founder from the business
US Federal regulators have banned Elizabeth Holmes, founder and CEO of Theranos startup medical, from heading blood tests laboratories, or owning them. Above that, the regulators revoked license of Theranos Laboratory in California. The organization will no longer be get subsidies within the state programs for indigent and seniors Medicare and Medicaid. The regulator, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), imposed a fine on the company. The sum was not disclosed, reports The Wall Street Journal.

In 2014, after next round of venture capital financing, Theranos was valued at $ 9 billion ($ 400 million of them came from investors). Holmes, who owns a controlling stake in the company, is also sometimes called "Steve Jobs in the skirt" for her business acumen and passion for black turtlenecks. The company argued that its "best achievements" allow to conduct "full spectrum" of laboratory tests using a few drops of blood from a finger, taken without a syringe. In October 2015, however, WSJ reported that Theranos conducted most of the tests using conventional equipment, purchased from other companies. Besides, there are doubts about accuracy of tests results received on Edison company’s equipment.
In April, it became known that the US government launched a criminal investigation against Theranos for possible misleading investors, and government officials about its technology and operations. At the beginning of the year, Federal prosecutors, San Francisco court, the FBI and the Securities and Exchange Commission Information began to seek about Theranos, WSJ reported, citing people familiar with the investigation.
In January, CMS mailed Theranos. In the letter, the regulator pointed at significant deficiencies in its California laboratory, due to which the customer's health was "in serious danger», Bloomberg reported. Soon, the company replied to the agency that no "evidence of systemic problems" had been found, and that the negative "consequences for patients should not be awaited." In March, the CMS reported that Theranos’ statements were not substantiated, and threatened the company with fines and penalties.
Then in May, Theranos informed the regulator that it canceled results of all tests carried out on Edison’s equipment in 2014 and 2015. The results of tens of thousands of tests have been revised or canceled completely, as the company reported to its clients - doctors and patients.
"We take full responsibility for the problems in our laboratory in Newark, California, and have already taken steps to implement comprehensive measures to correct them," - Holmes said in a statement, released after the CMS pronounced its decision. The lab will be closed and completely rebuilt. Theranos will continue to handle other analyzes in its lab in Arizona.

TL;DR/
There is no Limp Bizkit show at a Dayton, Ohio gas station tonight
By Rich McCormick

People of Dayton, Ohio, the wider tristate area, and the internet in general — there is no Limp Bizkit show at the Sunoco gas station at the corner of Keowee Street and Wayne Avenue tonight. The Dayton Police department has made it very clear that, despite screenshots of tweets and a Facebook event that appear to come from the band, there will be no concert starting at 8PM on the 20th of April.
Yes, it might make perfect sense for rap-rock pioneers Limp Bizkit to play a special concert on today of all days — 4/20 of course being marijuana's birthday — and yes, where else would Fred Durst, Wes Borland, DJ Lethal, John Otto, and The Other One be on Weed Day than partying in a suburban gas station parking lot. But, and I can't stress this enough, there is no show.

The Facebook invite is fake, despite supposedly having 1,400 confirmed attendees; the professional-looking flyer is fake; even the tweet is fake. Limp Bizkit has only tweeted once this year — in March, to identify upcoming South American concert dates, and to exhort people to "COME PARTY WITH THE BIZKIT." After scouring that tweet, and the Instagram post it linked to, I can exclusively report the band did not have a Dayton show planned at that time.
The Dayton Police department's tweet has already been seized upon by hundreds of Twitter users, many of whom are either ardent fans of Limp Bizkit, or keen to get a laugh out of this clearly very serious situation. Some even claim to have tickets for tonight's show, while others have asked for a revised date, or accused the department of lying.
Here is the gas station where the concert isn't:
Remember, if you're planning on breaking out your JNCO jeans and red Yankees hat before heading down to southwest Dayton later: you will not be able to hear seminal nu-metal classics like "My Generation," "Rollin'", and "Break Stuff" while you chug alcohol-laced energy drinks on a Wednesday night, even if you spent much of the early 2000s doing exactly that.
Even if Limp Bizkit's music might as well be the theme tune for this kind of place, even if you think you've seen some of the members of the band hanging around at your local gas station, even if you're already flying in from LA just for the show, know this — there is no concert at the Sunoco station at Keowee Street and Wayne Avenue tonight.

VOD platforms do not require users to sign up for a long-term contract.
VOD platforms typically use a set-top box or another device to deliver content to users.
VOD services are usually delivered over the internet, but they can also be delivered over traditional cable or satellite TV networks.
VOD platforms typically offer a free trial period, which allows users to try out the service before they commit to a long-term contract.
VOD is a great option for cord-cutters who want to watch their favorite movies and TV shows without paying for a cable or satellite TV subscription.
VOD is also a good option for people who travel frequently or who live in rural areas where broadband internet access is not available.

Box Elder | Information | TN Nursery
The box elder, or Acer negundo, is, despite its common name, a maple.
A small, fast-growing tree can reach 35-80 feet with a trunk diameter of around 20 inches. This deciduous tree is native to most eastern United States and may still grow wild far in the Midwest states. Since it is so fast-growing, the tree is often planted as a shade tree and, like all maples, can be a source of sugary sap, which can be processed into maple sugar and maple syrup. The trunk and spreading canopy of the box elder give the tree an attractive appearance and make it a favorite for planting when reforesting or landscaping an area with native tree species.
The box elder is the only North American maple with compound leaves, which, due to their similarity to the leaves of the elder, have given it its common name.
The tree's wood is not much used in construction but is sometimes used to manufacture furniture and small wooden decorations. Not only is the box elder the only maple with compound leaves, but it is also one of the few maples that can is both male and female and can reproduce without the near presence of another tree. The seeds of the tree are encased in a samara that is reddish-brown when mature and can be seen whirling to the ground like miniature helicopters with the first winds of autumn.

Annette Bishop’s Get Happy Mister Scores San Simeon Stakes Victory
Posted on April 21, 2015 by TOC Admin
Colorado-bred Get Happy Mister, idle since Aug. 16 at Arapahoe Park, rated kindly and roared up the rail to take Sunday’s Grade III, $100,000 San Simeon Stakes by a length under Tyler Baze. Conditioned by Mark Tsagalakis and owned by his mother-in-law, Annette Bishop, Get Happy Mister covered 6 ½ furlongs down Santa Anita’s hillside turf course in 1:13.11 while providing Tsagalakis with his first-ever stakes win.
“This is my first stakes win,” said Tsagalakis, 52, who by his accounting has been training “probably close to 25 years. I’ve won some races, but never a stakes. Right now, there weren’t a lot of choices…It was time to rock and roll. The race came up, he was ready to go and we were eligible for it. It was like ‘Let’s give it a try.’ We had him out on the turf the other day, he seemed to like it and he did.
“The plan is (for the horse) to go back home to Colorado and then come back here in the fall and run here again. We’ll play it by ear, but that was the original plan and we’ll just enjoy it for now…”
A winner of five consecutive races at Arapahoe prior to going to the sidelines, Get Happy Mister got his sixth in-a-row at odds of 12-1 in a field of seven older horses. A 5-year-old gelding by the Giant’s Causeway stallion First Samurai, he paid $27.20, $10.00 and $4.60. The San Simeon was his 11th win from 14 overall starts and with the winner’s share of $60,000, he improved his earnings to $384,928.
“It looks like he can do anything, he loves to run,” said Baze, who had never been aboard Get Happy Mister before. “When (pacesetters) Pure Tactics and Sweet Swap hooked up in front of me and opened up five, I knew they were flying. I just took my time…He’s so big and strong and he has a huge stride. He’s just a really classy horse.”
Colorado-based owner Annette Bishop was understandably elated, as Get Happy Mister also became the all-time leading Colorado-bred Thoroughbred.
“I bought him at a 2-year-old sale in Arapahoe,” she said. “He’s been a joy. I don’t know his limits and after today, I have no idea. I’m just amazed that he did as well as he did today. He’s been training out of his skin. It’s all due to Mark, he takes his time. He takes his pulse every two hours.”
The 5-2 second choice in the wagering, Holy Lute, who was ridden by Mike Smith, was on terms with the winner a furlong out, but proved second best, finishing a length in front of favored Home Run Kitten. Holy Lute paid $4.00 and $3.20.
Off at 2-1 under Gary Stevens, Home Run Kitten was last turning for home and outfinished longshot Outside Nashville to run third by a neck. Trained by David Hofmans, Home Run Kitten paid $2.60 to show.
Fractions on the race were 22.16, 43.84 and 1:07.04.

The Ideal Height for Altitude Training
These findings suggest that there’s a defined window for altitude living—between 2000 and 2500 meters—that can improve sea level performance in competitive runners.
[dropcap style=”font-size:100px; color:#992211;”]L[/dropcap]iving between 2000 and 2500 metres up is the optimum range to reap the performance benefits of altitude training.

Live High – Train Low
Researchers and athletes have long known that living at altitude holds the potential to improve athletic performance. Many competitive endurance athletes follow a “Live High – Train Low” training regimen, in which they live at moderate altitudes and do their easiest workouts there, saving their most intense training for altitudes closer to sea level. However, though several studies have shown the promise of this type of training philosophy, it’s been unknown what specific living altitude is best for enhancing athletic performance at sea level.
To help answer this question, lead researchers Benjamin D. Levine of the Institute for Exercise and Environmental Medicine at Texas Health Resources and the UT Southwestern Medical Center and James Stray-Gundersen of the USA Ski and Snowboard Association, along with first author Robert F. Chapman of Indiana University and colleagues flew competitive collegiate runners from Dallas, Texas—a city near sea level—to one of four different altitude training camps at various heights in the mountains near Salt Lake City, Utah, where they lived and trained for a month.
Prior to and after the altitude training camp, they tested these athletes’ performance in a 3000 meter time trial in Dallas. The researchers’ findings show that living between 2000 and 2500 meters above sea level offered the best performance enhancement compared to living at higher or lower elevations. These findings could help competitive endurance athletes and their coaches develop altitude training regimens that have the highest chance of success.
The article is entitled “Defining the ‘Dose’ of Altitude Training: How High to Live for Optimal Sea Level Performance Enhancement.” It appears in the Articles in Press section of the Journal of Applied Physiology, published by the American Physiological Society.
The researchers worked with 48 collegiate track and cross country runners. For four weeks, these athletes trained in Dallas, where the researchers performed a variety of tests to assess the athletes’ baselines on several different measures. For example, they determined the athletes’ VO2max, a measure of aerobic fitness based on the rate at which the body uses oxygen during exercise. They timed the athletes as they ran 3000 meters at their fastest pace. They performed a variety of blood tests, including measuring their volume of red blood cells and the concentration of a hormone called EPO that stimulates red blood cell production. Previous research has shown that EPO concentrations rise when people live at higher altitudes, an adaptation to help their bodies cope with less oxygen in the air by making more red blood cells.
Then, for a second four weeks, these athletes were separated into four groups. Each group lived in altitude training camps in the mountains near Salt Lake City at sites of various altitudes: Heber City (1780 meters), Park City (2085 meters), Deer Valley (2454 meters), and Guardsman’s Pass (2800 meters). Once a day, all the athletes gathered at a common site to train regardless of which altitude they were assigned for living. Their EPO concentrations were checked periodically during their mountain stay.
At the end of this period, the athletes regrouped in Dallas, where they had more exercise and blood testing and ran another timed 3000 meters.
The researchers found that when the athletes returned to sea level, only those who lived at the two middle altitudes (2085m and 2454m) performed significantly better than those at either end of the spectrum. EPO concentrations and red blood cell volumes had risen in each of the four groups, suggesting that contrary to long-held wisdom, these adaptations aren’t the only reason altitude training enhances performance.
Importance of the Findings
“These data suggest that when completing an altitude training camp, there is an optimal living altitude for producing improvement sin sea level performance,” they write. “For the athlete engaged in altitude training, the identification of an optimal living altitude holds tremendous practical application.”

Tripper of the Week Nicholas Beckman: Wherever He May Roam
Nicholas Beckman is our Tripper of the Week. Nicholas recently started working at the Tripping HQ. We asked him to share his love and philosophy toward travel. 1) What’s your approach to travel? At this point in my life, I’m not so much about the destination as much I am in love with the experience of traveling. I don’t like to make my plans too specific because I really enjoy getting lost and wandering around in unfamiliar environments. I used to travel for fun and adventure, but now travel is like a form of meditation by which I check in with myself and try to immerse myself in the beauty that surrounds me. 2) Tell us about your favorite adventure. In 2011, I made a trip to Guatemala with some friends who were interested in starting an “Intentional Community.” They had some land they wanted to turn into a farm, and it all sounded very romantic and fun. The land was located in a jungle an hour away from the nearest town by bus and two hours trek by foot up a mountainside. After a couple days, my friends decided to go meet up with some people on the other side of the country and we all decided to split up. I met another traveler in a hostel that same evening, and we began a five-day journey by bus and taxi through Honduras to Managua, Nicaragua. We covered a lot of ground and shared great conversations. 3) What was your most recent trip? Last December, I went on a road trip from San Francisco, California to Albuquerque, New Mexico. I had lived in New Mexico for a few months the year prior, but never had the chance to explore Taos and Santa Fe as thoroughly as I wanted to. I called a friend from the car and told them to expect me in two days. I spent two days in Albuquerque, a day Santa Fe, and two days in Taos, then decided to spend some time in Jerome, Arizona before finally deciding to drive back home. 4) Where have you loved visiting the most? I lived in Fribourg, Switzerland for 6 weeks one summer as part of a study abroad program. We traveled all over Switzerland from Geneva to Zurich; I spent every weekend with my fellow students seeing as much of the country as we were able. I wish I could live in Switzerland, it was an incredible experience and I want to return one day for as long as I can. One weekend, a group of about 7 students all took the train to Interlaken and decided to go bungee jumping. We wound up missing the last scheduled train home that evening and ended up sleeping in hostels. 5) Do you know where you want to go next? I really want to go on another road trip; I think I will be heading north along the Pacific coast to a beach somewhere in Oregon. I really want to sit out on a secluded beach looking out to the ocean. I have a little dog now, and I just love taking her to the beach or on a hike in the woods and exploring together!

All Africa Summit Next Year to Revitalize Higher Education

By Karen MacGregor
Issue No:285
An all-Africa higher education summit is to be held next year, bringing together stakeholders from across the continent to develop a charter and programme of action aimed at revitalising the sector. Another goal will be to build an advocacy alliance for higher education.
Akwasi Aidoo, executive secretary of TrustAfrica, told University World News that the summit would be held in Dakar, Senegal, probably in October or November next year. TrustAfrica is a philanthropy, governance and development NGO based in Dakar.
The idea was agreed at a Carnegie Corporation of New York-sponsored convening on “Higher Education Policy, Leadership and Governance”, held in Nairobi in May. It was taken forward at a meeting between the corporation, TrustAfrica and others in Dakar late last month.
TrustAfrica is the catalyst for the African higher education summit, which will be supported by the Carnegie Corporation.
A partnership is being forged to organise the event, also including the Council for the Development of Social Science Research in Africa, or CODESRIA – which developed the concept – the Association of African Universities, and the UN-created African Institute for Economic Development and Planning, IDEP.
“There is also the government of Senegal, which is making a big effort to revitalise the higher education sector in Senegal. So there will be at least five or six of us collaborating. The World Bank is also interested, and we are in conversation with it in Washington DC," said Aidoo.
“The overall aim is to reach consensus and develop a programme of action. We expect that eventually there will be an African charter, declaration or protocol that will be shared and committed to by all countries in Africa, to revitalise higher education.
“Related to that will be an attempt to set the stage for development of a strong and concerted advocacy movement or alliance for higher education in Africa: people and organisations that can work together to advance higher education, and implement the charter principals and action plan that will come out.”
The summit will gather together five categories of people and organisations. There will be representatives from all sub-regions: West, East, Central, Southern and North Africa.
The first category will be higher education leaders, academics and professionals. The second will be governmental – ministers of education and finance, policy-makers and authorities related to the higher education sector. The third will be student associations, and the fourth donor partners, the African Union, the United Nations, the World Bank and other institutions.
“We will also bring in key African thought leaders, African icons, VIPs,” said Aidoo. “Not too many, but those who have taken on advocacy for African development such as special envoys, UN champions and ambassadors.”
Aidoo said that a range of issues would be covered during the discussions, in the charter and by the advocacy movement. Specific issues will include the financing of higher education, human resources, the brain drain, and the quality and relevance of higher education.
“How can higher education become more relevant in the 21st century in relation to the challenges and the opportunities that Africa faces in higher education? Attention will also be paid to the issues of access and equity, especially gender equity in higher education, and innovation.
“The idea is that these are all areas that require transformation in African higher education,” Aidoo told University World News.
Over the past 50 to 60 years, Aidoo said, higher education on the continent had not transformed as might have been expected. There had been change in many areas of African development, including “huge transformation” in the political sphere towards democratic systems of governance and in freedom of expression and media pluralism.
“But in further and higher education things have been quite stagnant. There has been a huge increase in the number of tertiary institutions, in universities for example. But in areas such as finance and access, quality and relevance, there seems to have been stagnation,” Aidoo explained.
“I think this is an opportune time, because people are a lot more aware of higher education now than before.” For instance, the African Union had become interested in the sector and was setting up an African regulatory system. “So there is a bit of movement here and there in terms of political will and interest in this area.”
An advocacy alliance
Advocacy would be key to advancing pan-African agreement on higher education reached at the summit, Aidoo stressed. “It will have a very important media component.
“The whole idea of advocacy hinges on raising awareness and building a constituency among the general population and interested parties, to keep an issue on the radar.”
While it was not yet known what the media approach would be, said Aidoo: “There would obviously need to be some platform and some entity that would coordinate all the work. But we would not set up another big bureaucratic structure sitting somewhere.
“The advocacy secretariat will be very nimble, very flexible, grafted onto what already exists. The dynamics of it I think would emerge but we can imagine it.”
Aidoo said there were many African higher education networks and organisations, such as the Ghana-based Association of African Universities, that would play a role in coordinating work in relation to universities. Other important players would be the African Union and the Economic Commission for Africa (both in Ethiopia), and pan-African NGOs such as TrustAfrica and CODESRIA in Senegal.
“The summit will be an opportunity to bring them all together and see how they can each pick up pieces of the charter for advocacy work,” said Aidoo. “We will need to create a division of labour and also a plan that will enable them to push for specific issues.
“This would enable key stakeholders to advance implementation of the recommendations that will come out of the summit.”

Non-metals are present on which side of the periodic table?
Non-metals are on the opposite side of hydrogen.
The correct answer is: Right side
Metals are to the left of the table (except hydrogen, which is a nonmetal), nonmetals are to the right of the table, and the elements immediately next to the line are metalloids. Nonmetals are gases, liquids, or solids. Non-metals are dull in color and do not shine like metals. Non-metals cannot be hammered or shaped. Just hit it and it will shatter. Sulfur is an example of a non-metal.

Vincent D'Onofrio will return to Law & Order: Criminal Intent for the series' 10th and intended final season, USA Network and Universal Cable productions announced Tuesday.
The 51-year-old actor starred on the crime procedural for eight years before leaving the show after last season's first episode just this past spring, when he was succeeded by Jeff Goldblum. Goldblum announced his departure in August because of the "uncertainty" of the show's future, according to Variety.
Jeff Goldblum leaving Law & Order: Criminal Intent
It's still unclear whether D'Onofrio will work alongside his longtime on-screen partner, Kathryn Erbe, or Goldblum's crime solving co-star, Saffron Burrows.
Criminal Intent was the second spinoff from the flagship Law & Order brand when it began in 2001. After ratings started to decline, the series moved from NBC to sister cable station USA in 2007.
The series' final eight episodes will air sometime in 2011.

Criminal Intent is the second Law & Order series to get the axe, following the cancelation of the original series in May after 20 seasons. However, Universal Cable Productions also announced Tuesday that it has made a pilot commitment to a new project from Wolf.
"We have been the fortunate caretakers of this legendary series, and we plan to give it the world-class farewell it so richly deserves. Dick and his team promise to create a major event for television with incredible surprises," said Jeff Wachtel, USA's president of original programming. "The plan is for this to be the series finale, but with a Dick Wolf franchise, one really never knows until it's over."
For his part, creator/executive producer Dick Wolf said: "Only time will tell if this is a fond farewell or a renaissance for Detective Robert Goren ...

The Six Inch Maximus Platinum Silicone Dildo
In Latin Maximus translates directly to The Greatest, Utmost, Confident, and or Outstanding. This smaller version of the Maximus is about a third of the size by volume of it's giant bigger brother and was designed by our friends at SheVibe. With a long, gradual curve, the Maximus offers hyper-realistic optics with pronounced veins and a highly textured finish. Made with a medium shore 8a platinum silicone, which for a dildo of this size, still has a bit of squish to it. Add an optional Vac-u-lock port for use as an attachment to compatible devices. Please note, heavy use of vac-u-lock attachments will reduce the useable life of the toy.
Insertable Length: 6”
Head: Diameter 1.35"
Middle Shaft: Diameter 1.59"
Base of the Shaft: Diameter 1.67”
Choice of six colors:
Tone 2 - Darker Skin

The Lilliput, named after Jonathan Swift’s fictional island where the inhabitants are just six inches tall, is currently the shortest Uberrime dildo. After more than just a handful of requests for a petite item that’s still thicker than average, the Lilliput in a choice of four always in inventory colors.
With a slight curve, a pronounced head, and a steep ridge, the Lilliput offers broad G-spot or prostate stimulation. The dorsal vein is also pronounced and curved, along with the smooth raised vein texture that travels the length of the shaft.
The Lilliput’s shorter length and rounded head make it ideal for anyone who enjoys some girth but not deep penetration. The flared base means that this toy is harness-compatible and anal safe. A toy for everyone!

My Reflection - You can use it
I had a lot of breakthroughs in this course.
The most important 2 were trust: trust any result or outcome, good or bad, happens for the right reason.
Than makes me have a lot more confidence because whatever I do in life, the result is going to be the right one in that moment, so that something greater happen in my life.
Also, I discovered that I had no confidence and self-esteem in certain situations.
The exercises and challenges that you offer in the course are the best to grow that so I can immerse myself into the unknown.
I discovered that I had no confidence in some aspects of my life, and that was why I was failing in them... I wasn't challenging myself to tap into those scenarios with the intention of gaining more confidence and self-esteem and to grow.
Thank you very much for this course Joe. -Estaban
"Excellent Material
I'm only a quarter of the way through and have no hesitation in telling you that this is an excellent course. Joe is so full of enthusiasm for his subject, and covers some pretty deep stuff in a very engaging manner. There are plenty of udemy instructors who cobble together a short course, charge way too much, and hardly engage with students at all. Joe is totally engaged with his students and it's clear that he really wants to help. (Let me tell you, when you get to my age, you develop a very finely tuned BS detector. It never comes close to twitching when I watch Joe's stuff.) The best compliment I can pay this course is to tell you that I like to start my working day, at my desk, with a video or two from this course. Sets me up nicely for the day ahead. Will update this review when I've watched more of the course." -Sam Pollard
This is by far my favorite Udemy course of all time! The videos are spectacular and like you said I was never bored! Incredible things I have learned about my own confidence and self-esteem just by enrolling in this course. You have great content. Please continue to make more courses like this!"
-Rachel Laveno
"It feels as though you were working with him on a 1 to 1 basis.
The goal of most self-development courses is very simple: to inspire others to take determined action in order to make changes in their lives. Yet many people fail to do so because sometimes the lessons are taught in a way that seem to make things more complicated than they need to be. I'm happy to say that this course is different. Joe Pary makes learning how to transform your confidence and self-esteem into a fun, easy and enjoyable experience. Filmed in high definition in multiple locations, Joe brings his audience into each lesson with him, making it feel as though you were working with him on a 1 to 1 basis. Joe's infectious, positive attitude coupled with a direct and to the point delivery makes increases the student's motivations, stimulates their desires and keeps them focused. Don't delay in getting this great course taught by a very talented instructor!" -Tim Hudson

PM encourages entrepreneurs in North with tax concessions to uplift local economy but NO POLITICAL PACKAGE AS PROMISED.
Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe yesterday said the Government has offered tax relief for 300% of the income from capital investment to entrepreneurs who start business enterprises in the Northern Province to boost the local economic growth.
The Premier said the Government’s aim is to restore the lucrative commercial economy the North had before the war, and the Government is committed to assisting the local entrepreneurs to invest in the region.
“We want local entrepreneurs investing as well as bringing enterprises to the region from outside,” he said.
Speaking at an event held at the Jaffna Municipal Grounds, distributing investment kits to new entrepreneurs under the Enterprise Sri Lanka program today, the Premier said the Government is engaged in several projects to develop the economy of the North after the destabilisation of the region due to the conflict.
The Enterprise Sri Lanka program was launched in Jaffna today under the patronage of Prime Minister Wickremesinghe. The Premier also opened special Enterprise Sri Lanka counters at the Bank of Ceylon, People’s Bank and Rural Development Bank branches in Jaffna.
Expressing his views further at the occasion, the Premier said that during discussions with bank officials, he had learned that the bank branches which have the most money deposited are in Jaffna, and that banks in the Northern Province maintain deposits of over Rs. 100 billion.
“That money should be invested in Jaffna,” he added. “We will give money if you start from inside (the region),” the Premier said, encouraging the local businesses as well as individual investors to start new projects.
The Prime Minister stated that the present Government is ready to provide all the necessary assistance to uplift Jaffna’s economy through entrepreneurship.
The Premier explained that economic development is creating capital, and the Government is in the process of increasing the capital at the rural level by launching programs such as Gamperaliya. Premier Wickremesinghe said the people of the Northern Province lost their capital as a result of the conflict and therefore, the capital must now be created. He noted the arrival of tourists and the launch of rural development projects will lead to the increase in capital.
Ministers Mangala Samaraweera, Rishad Bathiudeen, Eran Wickramaratne, and Provincial Council Chief Minister C. V. Wigneswaran were among those who attended the event.

Mahinda Decides to Protect his MP Post and give up ‘Opposition Leader’ post
The Joint Opposition (JO) is planning to give up the fight for the post of Opposition Leader. Speaking to media after an event held in Negombo on 15 August, former President Mahinda Rajapaksa said even if the JO becomes independent in the parliament, it will not get the post of Opposition Leader.
“I am confident that even if we become an independent party, they will not accept it since we were elected to the parliament in the first place through another party. Therefore we will not be able to get it. At the request of our fellow parliamentarians, we appointed a committee to get a report on this. We do not have high hopes. Even if we become independent, we will not succeed.”
Since the former President has an in-depth understanding of the parliament’s culture and standing orders, he is well aware of the fact that the JO will not get the post of Opposition Leader. In a context where becoming independent may cost the JO members their MP posts, the JO is planning to gradually give up the dialogue about the post of Opposition Leader. In order to create a suitable environment for that, Mahinda Rajapksa has openly expressed his position.
Meanwhile, General Secretary of the United People’s Freedom Alliance (UPFA) Mahinda Amaraweera asks the members of the JO to make individual requests, should they wish to become independent. He further said that their requests can be considered if they make individual requests.
Recently the General Secretary of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) Rohana Lakshman Piayadasa stressed that the JO must send their requests to the Speaker of Parliament if they wish to become independent in the parliament.
He went on to state that the members of the JO, including Mahinda Rajapaksa, cannot arbitrarily become independent since they have been elected to the parliament through the UPFA, and if they attempt to become independent, the SLFP working committee will appoint new councillors without disciplinary actions.
They now have decided to give up the fight over the post of Opposition Leader. Their fight was nothing more than a drama orchestrated to conceal internal conflicts of the JO and scam and corruption allegations against Rajapaksas.

Port Pirie new water main
More than 480 m of water main in Port Pirie West is scheduled for replacement over the coming weeks as part of proactive efforts by SA Water to improve services for local customers.
The pipe revitalisation is part of the utility’s four-year, $155 million water main management program to deliver reliable drinking water to South Australia.
SA Water general manager for sustainable infrastructure Amanda Lewry said the main refresh will help maintain safe and clean water for local consumers for many years to come.
“Improving our services isn’t just about delivering good quality drinking water – it’s also about maintaining the system that delivers it,” said Lewry.
“Taking around five weeks to complete, the replacement in Port Pirie West will use PVC pipes which are known for their flexibility and resistance to ground movement.” PVC is known for its flexibility and resistance to ground movement, and the new pipes are expected to extend the life of the water main for another 100 years. “We will […] ensure our customers are notified of any temporary water supply interruptions that are necessary when we move their connections over from the old to new pipes.”
Port Pirie is located on the east coast of the Spencer Gulf in South Australia. The mains will be installed along Federation Street, with works typically carried out Monday to Friday, between 7 am and 5 pm.

Juan Gabriel Photo by Robert Hacman
LOS ANGELES, CA, April 11, 2022 – The estate of legendary Mexican recording superstar & prolific songwriter Juan Gabriel has signed an exclusive, worldwide agreement with Virgin Music US Latin and extended its agreement with Universal Music Publishing Group (UMPG), Universal Music Group’s leading global music publishing division. Under the new deal, Virgin Music US Latin will now represent Juan Gabriel’s post-2008 catalog and future recordings and UMPG will represent his entire iconic catalog through an extended, exclusive global publishing agreement, uniting Juan Gabriel’s music under the Universal Music roof.
Throughout his stellar 45-year career, Juan Gabriel released more than 47 albums and helped popularize Latin music worldwide. His songs have been recorded in Japanese, Turkish, Bulgarian, French, Italian, Greek, Portuguese, Dutch, Melayu, Hawaiian and English. One of the most recognized and acclaimed Mexican singers in the history of Spanish language music, Juan Gabriel’s hits include “Hasta que te conocí,” “Abrázame Muy Fuerte,” “Querida,” “Amor Eterno,” and “Así Fue” among many others. The Latin music icon has sold more than 150 million albums, composed more than 1,800 songs, released 32 studio albums, and over 20 of his hits reached the Top 10 on Billboard (including 7 #1 Billboard Hot Latin Songs). Juan Gabriel built a legacy as a multifaceted artist, recording songs in genres as diverse as ranchero, ballad, pop, bolero, and producing dozens of albums for Mexican and foreign artists.
Ivan and Simona Aguilera, Juan Gabriel’s son and daughter-in-law, said: “After many years of work, we have put together a team of professionals that we believe have the qualifications that we have been searching for to represent my father and the legacy he left in my care. Our desire is to continue the vision my father had for the future of the Latin community, the Mexican culture, and the fine art of music he loved so much. My father wanted the world to experience his love for music, love for his beloved Latin culture, and to bring that experience to the world around him through music. Our dream is to continue what he started and to bring every beautiful thing he created and envisioned to the fans that stood by him all these years, and to future generations to come. We are proud of the team we have selected. We look forward to working together to bring to fruition all the work my father left behind. God Bless!”
“I am very honored to have the opportunity to collaborate in preserving the great musical legacy of Juan Gabriel, who I consider the most prolific singer-songwriter and performer in Latin America. His influence, recognized around the world, is more alive than ever,”said Victor González, President, Virgin Music Latin America & Iberian Peninsula.
Alexandra Lioutikoff, President Latin America/US Latin for UMPG, and Yadira Moreno, UMPG Mexico’s VP of New Business Development/Managing Director, said, “Universal Music Publishing is privileged to continue managing Juan Gabriel’s catalog. His impact to music across the world is unquestionable, Juan Gabriel has been a staple across Mexico and Latin America for generations, and we want to acknowledge the honor of being responsible for his works. Juan Gabriel’s songs and legacy are more alive today than ever before and we will keep pushing his songs forward for generations to come.”
This new agreement between Virgin Music US Latin and the estate of Juan Gabriel marks the beginning of a new relationship that will see new music released in the coming months including the highly anticipated Los Duo 3. Additionally, there will be a renewed focus on marketing and reintroducing his catalog to a new generation of fans.
Jeff Jampol, CEO, JAM, Inc, said, “Juan Gabriel is one of the greatest artists and songwriters in the history of modern music, beloved by fans all over the world. Our job at JAM, Inc is to protect, defend, and promote Juan Gabriel’s critically important legacy, and we are extremely happy to be in partnership with the great minds and artist-friendly people at Universal Music Publishing and Virgin Music US Latin.” Jampol continued, “As the worldwide managers of Juan Gabriel’s legacy and art, we’d particularly like to thank Jody Gerson, Victor González, and David Kokakis for their tireless efforts to carve this new venture with us – it took a lot of work, and their support & encouragement along the way made all the difference in the world. We’re very happy to work alongside Jody, Victor, and their teams, as we all move forward into the future together.”
Across his artistic career, Juan Gabriel collaborated both in concerts and in the studio with major international singers such as Juanes, Luís Fonsi, Alejandro Fernández, Rocío Dúrcal, Franco de Vita, José José, Ana Gabriel, Marc Anthony, David Bisbal, Natalia Lafourcade, Vicente Fernandez, Isabel Pantoja, Laura Pausini, Emmanuel and many more.
Juan Gabriel has been honored with countless awards including 3 Latin Grammys (including Album of the Year in 2016), Billboard Awards, MTV Music Awards, Lo Nuestro Awards, ASCAP Awards and Person of the Year awarded by the Latin Recording Academy. He received a star on the Las Vegas Walk of Fame and the Hollywood Walk of Fame and participated in festivals such as Viña del Mar, obtaining Silver and Gold Torches and Gaviotas.

Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh
Queen Elizabeth II carries on, leads royals at memorial service for Prince Philip at Westminster Abbey
Maria Puente
The service was the first major in-person gathering for Queen Elizabeth II since her COVID-19 diagnosis.
The service was held because his funeral in 2021 was limited to just 30 people under Britain's strict pandemic rules.
Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla of Cornwall, Prince William and Duchess Kate of Cambridge attended.
Queen Elizabeth II appeared in public Tuesday for her first major in-person gathering since her COVID-19 diagnosis, leading her family, dozens of foreign royals and hundreds of Britain's great and good in a service of thanksgiving for the life of her late husband, Prince Philip, at Westminster Abbey.
Her presence at the service had been up in the air until the morning of the service. She was spotted in a car, accompanied by her second son, Prince Andrew, Duke of York, being driven from Windsor Castle where she has been living since the start of the pandemic.
After the 1,800 invited guests had been seated, a fanfare sounded and the queen entered, welcomed by the Very Reverend David Hoyle, Dean of Westminster, who conducted the service.
She walked into the ancient abbey through a side door on the arm of Prince Andrew, then separated from him to walk to her seat alone, easing concerns about her health that had raised questions about whether she would attend. It was her first major public event since unspecified mobility issues hampered her ability to walk up and down steps or long distances.
She sat in a throne-like chair at the front of the congregation, flanked by senior members of the royal family and backed up by row after row of more royals and leaders of Britain. The monarch wore a dark green coat with a black color, a matching hat trimmed in black and black gloves.
The queen's appearance for the ceremony to pay tribute to her husband of 73 years, who died in April 2021, gave Britons some reassurance that their sovereign for the last 70 years had not been entirely discomfited by illness or age. Her ability to get around may be more restricted and she now carries her husband's walking stick, but she was carrying on.
The service for the late Duke of Edinburgh, who died just short of his 100th birthday, was scheduled because his funeral in 2021 was limited to just 30 people under Britain's then-stringent pandemic rules.
The funeral was televised, leaving the nation with a poignant image of the queen sitting alone in her pew at St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle.
Now that the pandemic has eased in Britain, Philip's family and the nation wanted to give him a proper sendoff in the 753-year-old royal church where British and English monarchs have been crowned, married, buried and mourned for centuries.
The service incorporated some elements originally planned for the funeral that had to be dropped, including music: The choir, for instance, sang "Te Deum in C" by English composer Benjamin Britten, originally selected by Prince Philip for his funeral service.
"The Queen has also been actively involved in the plans for today’s Service of Thanksgiving, with many elements reflecting Her Majesty’s wishes," Buckingham Palace said Tuesday in announcing the order of service.
This month, the queen, who turns 96 in April, has missed two major events on the annual royal calendar that she had hoped to attend, including the Commonwealth Day service at the abbey on March 14.
The queen had been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 but on Feb. 20 the palace announced she was experiencing mild cold-like symptoms after testing positive for the virus.
Her son and heir, Prince Charles the Prince of Wales, stood in for her at the Commonwealth ceremony, accompanied by his wife, Duchess Camilla of Cornwall, and his son and daughter-in-law, Prince William and Duchess Kate of Cambridge.
Buckingham Palace did not say why the queen missed the Commonwealth service or why she agreed to postpone the annual Diplomatic Reception on March 2 (although the Russian invasion of Ukraine likely played a role in the latter).
But if missing those events meant she was able to commemorate her first and only love in the soaring expanse of Westminster Abbey, who could blame her?
In the last few weeks, the queen did appear for several in-person audiences at Windsor Castle, and on March 23, in the White Drawing Room of the castle, she welcomed artisans and leaders of the 70-year-old British craftworks company, Halcyon Days, to view a selection of the hand-painted enamel-ware trinkets and fine bone English china it has made since the 1950s.
The Tuesday service was to "give thanks" for Philip's "dedication to family, Nation and
Commonwealth," according to an advance press release from Buckingham Palace.
His extended family, dozens of foreign royals, hundreds of friends and representatives of his numerous charities and patronages wanted to celebrate his legacy in creating opportunities for young people, promoting conservation and environmental stewardship, and supporting the Armed Forces. His contributions to public life were recognized as will his steadfast support for more than 700 charitable organizations with which he was associated throughout his life.
Members of the royal family who attended included some of his 12 great-grandchildren, such as future king Prince George of Cambridge, 8, and his sister, Princess Charlotte, 6, the two eldest children of Prince William and Duchess Kate.
Leading the senior royals were the Prince of Wales and his wife, Duchess Camilla, and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Prince Andrew and his daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie and their husbands were there, as were the queen's only daughter, Princess Anne the Princess Royal and her husband, Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, the princess' two children and her eldest grandchildren.
The queen's youngest son, Prince Edward the Earl of Wessex and his wife, Countess Sophie of Wessex, and their children, Lady Louise Windsor-Mountbatten and James, Viscount Severn, were there, as were the queen's cousins, the Duke of Kent, the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, Prince and Princess Michael of Kent, and Princess Alexandra.
(Prince Charles' younger son, Prince Harry, and his wife, Duchess Meghan of Sussex, did not attend; they now live in California and he declined to return to the U.K. due to concerns over security.)
Besides the duke's British family, other attendees included members of eight European royal families, including the kings and queens of Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Spain and Sweden, most of whom are related to Philip and the British royals as descendants of Queen Victoria.
Representatives of European former royal families, such as those from Romania, Serbia and Greece (the latter ex-royals include Prince Philip's closest birth-family relatives) also attended.
Also attending were some 500 representatives of the duke's patronages and charities, reflecting the breadth of causes he championed and in recognition of those who continue his prodigious charitable work.
Representatives of the government, including Prime Minister Boris Johnson; the Armed Forces; the governments in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland; the high commissioners of the queen's 14 other realms; and representatives of the Overseas Territories will be there, as will representatives from the royal households, the duke’s regimental affiliations in the U.K. and the Commonwealth.
Top leaders of the Church of England, including the Archbishop of Canterbury and the deans of Westminster and Windsor, led the service. Representatives of other faiths in the U.K. also were there.
The Right Reverend David Conner, Dean of Windsor, gave the address, quoting from the Puritan writer John Bunyan about how man's first intent is to "be a pilgrim."
"We do not understand the (prince) unless we see him, at the heart, to be a man of faith," Conner said. "That faith was never dogmatic, sentimental or paraded and, as it went in search of understanding, was frequently questioned and examined. However, it was real and it endured, inspiring and shaping a lifetime of commitment to the making of this world a better place."
The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, founded by Prince Philip in 1956, featured prominently in the service with a tribute by Doyin Sonibare, a Gold Award winner who grew up in East London, the child of a "strict" Nigerian mother who encouraged her to apply to the award program as a teen. Sonibare told the congregation it changed her life for the better.
"In 1956, when the Duke of Edinburgh created the Award, he had a vision to create a program which supported the development of young people all over the world," she said. "Today, you’ve learned how his legacy has impacted me and how it will continue to impact future generations to come."
The Band of the Royal Marines (the duke was Captain General for more than 60 years) provided music before and after the service, and the Westminster Abbey and Chapel Royal choirs provided song during the service.
The duke asked that clergy from the royal estates of Windsor, Sandringham and Balmoral (known as the queen's domestic chaplains) be at his funeral given his role in the day-to-day management of the estates. The minister of Crathie Church in Scotland, the rector of Sandringham and the chaplain to the Royal Chapel of All Saints in Windsor Great Park will offer prayers celebrating Prince Philip's energy and spirit of adventure, the palace said.
Among the composers on the list of musical excerpts were Bach, Wagner,Beethoven, Britten and Hans Zimmer, who won an Oscar Sunday for best original score for the music of “Dune.”
The service was broadcast live on BBC One .The abbey was wired with a "hearing loop," featuring a hearing aid so that attendees could hear better in the vast space.
Attendees were asked to switch off their devices and to refrain from using cameras, video or recording equipment.
