Work on a water main in Beaconsfield will require 24-hour traffic lights for one week.
Transport for Bucks have confirmed that manually controlled temporary lights will be placed on the main A355 Amersham Road from 7am on July 23 until July 30.
The work is connected to the construction of a relief road, which is currently under construction.
Mark Shaw, Buckinghamshire County Council Deputy Leader and Transport Cabinet Member, said: "I do appreciate no one likes delays in their journey, and I apologise for any inconvenience.
"We've looked at all ways to undertake these works without causing disruption, and I've been assured Affinity Water will get the job done as quickly as they can, while making sure people still have running water in their homes."

Juno Awards' 2014 Nominees, Red Hot Chili Peppers' Super Bowl Controversy and Ronnie James Dio's Star-studded Tribute in Our News Roundup
Published Feb 08, 2014After a jam-packed week of news gathering, it's that time of the week where we like to take a big breath and look back at it all. So if you're wanting to see what might have passed you by this week, look no further than our news roundup.
First up, it was a busy week in Canadian music news. Leading the way, the Juno Awards announced the 2014 nominees, with acts such as Arcade Fire, Drake and Serena Ryder leading the way. As could be expected, though, not everyone is pleased with this year's nominations, especially one former judge who has started an online petition to get snubbed metal act Voivod nominated.
Also up north this week, we had some pretty high-profile album announcements, including news of new records by Chad VanGaalen, Owen Pallett and Pink Mountaintops. And Calgary's Sled Island is heading back our way this year, revealing that Kathleen Hanna will be a guest curator at the 2014 edition.
In other news, we found out recently freed Pussy Riot members Masha Alyokhina and Nadya Tolokonnikova are no longer part of the band, the late Ronnie James Dio is getting a high-profile tribute album, bassist Dave Klein left Black Flag, and some lucky guy out there found Marvin Gaye's 1964 passport in a record he bought for 50 cents.
And last but not least, Red Hot Chili Peppers were on damage control this week due to their "unplugged" Super Bowl halftime appearance.

Someone is trying to shed some light in this dark world.
Recently thanks to Pinterest, I came across something. Better than a lot of the "feel good" stuff of self improvement or crafts. It was a T-shirt and so much more.
But what does this have in common with Alder's Ledge? We have similar goals and methods. Both of us want to increase the awareness of social needs in this world and encourage people to act. We have also used similar methods to do this. First by asking those who have come across our information to pass it along on shared social networks of Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Tumblr to spark better awareness. Next to invite them to act on this interest and last to make a personal connection with the need.
We applaud Sevenly! They have sponsored charities dealing with sex trafficking, refugees of genocide and civil wars, and former child soldiers. There are other numerous organizations that span the scope of Alder's Ledge as well. Each charity is thoroughly researched and fact checked in the application process to make sure the most good is being done. Sevenly just started up in 2011 and have been able to raise generous amounts to different causes, each with it's own unique designed products during their campaign. Here is how the process works as per Sevenly.org displays.

A man has been mauled by lions at Barcelona Zoo, after entering the enclosure dressed in camouflage gear.
The unnamed 45-year-old was dragged down a service tunnel and mauled by two lions and a lioness, before being rescued.
He has been taken to hospital in a serious condition, having suffered numerous bites from the lions.
Witnesses reportedly looked on in horror as the man entered the lion enclosure voluntarily, sitting on a piece of grass that was out-of bounds.
He was eventually rescued by zoo staff, firemen and police, who successfully managed to push the lions back with water hoses and fire extinguishers, before the man was rushed to Hospital de la Val d'Hebron.
Unconfirmed reports have suggested that the victim has been previously involved in activism, and was arrested in September for burning a flag at a monument to Spanish military hero Rafael Casanova.
The Zoo have since launched an official investigation into the incident.

When it comes to summer vacation, there's a lot of pressure to do it right. You want to strike the right balance between experience and education … between familiar things and new to-dos … between relaxation and sock-rocking fun.
If you're looking for a summer vacation destination that lets you have all of those things, then check out Central Florida. Known for the option to "choose everything," Central Florida is your summer fun zone, jam packed with amusements and amusement parks, museums and cool educational experiences, not to mention delicious things to eat and drink (and a few adults-only perks … after all, vacations to super fun places are for the whole family, right?).
1. Stay and play (or just enjoy the day) at LEGOLAND Florida Resort
Love for LEGOs transcends generations, which is why LEGOLAND Florida Resort is a must-do in Central Florida's Winter Haven. Splash around at the water park and squeal, giggle, and ride at the amusement park. Make sure to check out the new LEGOLAND Beach Retreat opening April 7, as well as the new NINJAGO section of the park that just opened in January.
If you're really into LEGOS (and you like perks such as early park access, Master Model Builder sessions access, and an in-room treasure hunt), then plan to stay at the LEGOLAND Hotel.
2. Live for the moment at Bok Tower Gardens
Take time to stroll through the beauty of nature at the National Historic Landmark, Bok Tower Gardens. Designed by famed landscape architect Frederick Law Olmstead Jr., the landscape garden is a natural showcase of romantic recesses, peaceful resting areas, and stunning views of the "Singing Tower" Carillon. The gardens are also part of the Great Florida Birding Trail; you can see over 126 bird species.
Recently, Bok Tower completed a major expansion to include the Hammock Hollow Children's Garden, the Edible Garden & Outdoor Kitchen, and more.
Make a day of it at Bok Tower. Bring a book, your camera, and a picnic lunch. Children can climb, learn, and explore in the children's garden.
3. Get wild at Safari Wilderness Ranch
There's no need to travel half way around the world to go on safari when you've got Safari Wilderness Ranch in Lakeland. Get up close and personal on this African-style safari in Central Florida. Choose from any one of these cool experiences:
- Customized vehicle safari
- Camel expedition
- Kayak safari
- Horseback safari
- Llama trek
You can also add perks like feeding ring-tailed lemurs, feeding budgies, and feeding a guinea pig colony to your itinerary. See zebra, water buffalo, antelope, and other Asian and African animal species.
4. Expand your horizons on Central Florida's museum scene
Experience art, architecture, and creative playtime at Central Florida's several museums. As promised Central Florida allows you to choose a little something for everyone.
- Explorations V Children's Museum located in downtown Lakeland is a hands-on space for growing minds. There are multiple temporary exhibits as well as permanent ones covering the sciences, art, music, math, history, and culture. Special events and games (like supermarket math or building a body) are fun ways for kids to learn and be entertained.
- Polk Museum of Art is a Smithsonian Institution affiliate that features a wide collection of contemporary and modern art. This free museum is considered one of the top 10 art museums in Florida. With its variety of pieces ranging from pre-Columbian to Asian, European, and American Decorative Arts, it's easy to see why.
- Frank Lloyd Wright Architecture is undeniably one of the most fascinating examples of buildings as functional art, which is why the collection of Frank Lloyd Wright Architecture at Florida Southern College is a must-see. Considered one of "the Most Beautiful Campuses in the nation," Florida Southern College boasts 13 Frank Lloyd Wright structures.
5. Savor the flavor with Central Florida's unique bites
Part of the fun of going on vacation are the culinary adventures, but it's kind of difficult when you don't know the lay of the land. To help out, we've compiled a list of delicious places to eat that aren't your usual suspects.
- Harry's Seafood Bar & Grill has a distinctly flavorful menu inspired by the City of New Orleans. Just as you were transported to the wilds of Africa when on safari, let Harry's transport you to the Big Easy with dishes like Shrimp and Scallop Orleans, Grilled Chicken Baton Rouge, Crab Crusted Blackened Red Fish, and French Quarter Beef Tenderloin.
- Peebles BBQ in Auburndale is a family-owned local's favorite and has been in business since 1947. That's a long time to perfect their menu, which has all of the classics like beef, chicken, pork, and sausage amidst beans, slaw, salad, and other sides.
- Harry's Old Place in Winter Haven boasts casual lakefront dining. Have a drink and delicious fried seafood favorites like grouper fingers, oysters, scallops, clams, shrimp, catfish, and more. Start with duck fingers or gator bites, and don't miss the homemade seafood chowder.
- Texas Cattle Company in Lakeland has been in the business since 1973 and claims to have the best steaks anywhere. We certainly don't disagree. Cooked over Florida citrus and oak wood, these custom steaks will have you wishing you lived up the street.
6. Have a little adult-only time on a brewery tour
Whether you're on a couples vacation or a friends vacation or your kids are old enough to hang out at the hotel solo, we totally recommend a little adults-only time at one of the local breweries. Take a tour at any of these cool places and sip and savor the "you time."
- Grove Roots Brewery in Winter Haven
- Brew Hub in Lakeland
- Lakeland Brewing Company in Lakeland
7. Skip the hotel and get a vacation rental home instead
While there's nothing wrong with a hotel stay, when you come to Central Florida, consider making yourself at home by staying in a home. Vacation rental homes are a hot option because you spend the same (or less) than you would on a hotel, and you're mere minutes from the front gates of many local parks (including drumroll, please … Disney).
There are more than 7,000 homes to rent (no that's not a typo), and you can choose the features and amenities (from pool to in-house cinema), as well as the size. Many homes can support large family vacation groups, which means that rather than staying a few doors down from your favorite cousin at a hotel, you're in the same digs.
Of course, no matter where you stay, Central Florida is Florida's fun zone. There's so much to go, see, and do. It's the summer vacation that gives you a little slice of everything.

We've compiled a list of top 10 questions we get asked at trade shows!
1. Is spray foam environmentally friendly?
Several spray foam insulation solutions are 100% water-blown meaning they don't use any synthetic blowing agents or ozone-depleting substances. These water-blown spray foams have the lowest Global Warming Potential (GWP) allowing us to contribute to a brighter, greener and environmentally sensitive future.
2. Will it burn?
Just like wood, drywall and carpeting, spray foam will burn if it's ignited. Spray polyurethane foam is an organic material and all organic materials burn.
3. Can you spray those little areas in my basement at the top of the wall?
Those little areas are called Joist Ends and yes, we spray those all the time. Spray foam expands to fill all gaps, holes and joints that are susceptible to wood movement. Once the foam fully expands it insulates the cavity as well, and it doesn't allow air to move through it so it always performs to it's full rated r-value. It also adheres right to the rim joist thereby eliminating the condensing surface.
4. Why is some spray foam purple?
All spray foam is colored differently. It's the main method for determining which manufacturer produced the foam and it also a way for inspectors to check and see if the foam is CCMC (Canadian Construction Material Center) approved.
5. Is this stuff mouse proof?
While mice aren't generally able to chew through the closed cell spray foam insulation and they don't like eating it, it's a good idea to inspect it yearly to make sure there are no holes. Remember that spray foam exposed to sunlight is subject to damage, so check any exposed areas more frequently. And if a mouse should somehow enter the attic space (even after installation), the spray foam envelope has no material content that mice would want to eat. The fact is, spray foam insulation is a high quality home insulating product. But because it's such an exceptional sealer, one of the advantages is that it keeps out mice.
6. Why do the installers have to dress in the full white suits?
Appropriate clothing and PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) is necessary whenever there is a possibility of direct contact with Spray foam chemicals. The installers wear full face respirators with fresh air, disposable coveralls and gloves to keep spray and mist from contacting skin and clothing.
7. How soon will I start seeing a return on my investment?
When Spray Foam Insulation is installed in a building correctly it forms a full Air barrier, as well as providing superior insulation ("R") Value. The benefit to having a tighter sealed home is that all the air that you have paid to heat to a comfortable temperature is no longer escaping through the inevitable cracks and voids in your conventional air barrier. So although the additional cost for spray foam is higher initially, in most cases it will have paid for itself in the first 2-4 years in home energy savings.
A 3,600 sq. ft. home in Georgia may see a 38% reduction in heating and cooling usage for an estimated annual ROI of $442 whereas a 3,850 sq. ft. home in Manitoba may see the same 38% reduction in heating and cooling for an estimated annual ROI of $840. Again, there are variables which can impact the ROI, but overall, the return on investment for homeowners offers a good reason to consider spray foam insulation.
8. Do you come out of town and spray?
We definitely go out of town! We spend a huge part of the summer coming back and forth from cottage country. If you need spray foam at your cabin (or under your cabin) we can definitely help (and if your neighbors at the cabin want some too, you'll save on mileage!) If you are on an island it's not a problem either, we rent a barge and bring the equipment to you.
9. I have a cab over and the room over the garage is cold, can you help with that?
The rooms above garages require a lot of attention to the construction details. Using spray foam in the floor cavity is a superior choice. There is a lot of area that is exposed to the cold, and you also have to make sure that it is completely sealed so that car exhaust can't leak into the living areas. Many builders will insulate the floor similar to an exterior wall, with only R28 – R32 batt insulation and a sheet of poly separating the room from the cold. If you've ever walked barefoot in one of these rooms, you'll realize that this just doesn't cut it. A builder would typically install about 5 inches of spray foam, which provides R30 – R32 insulation and completely seals the floor from air leaks.
10. What's the R-Value of spray foam?
An R-value is a rating which measures how well insulation can resist heat flow. 'R' stands for thermal resistance.
The R-value depends on:
- type of material
- density
- thickness.
2lb Closed Cell Spray foam is the best at R6 per inch.
1/2 open cell spray foam is R3.7 per inch.
Different insulation products have different R-values. Some materials insulate better than others and some need to be thicker than others to get the R-value you need.
Hopefully this answers some of your questions.

I just got this email from Crash Records, apparently it's on Cd too.
Good morning Moz fans,
As you know we like to keep you posted about new releases and there is a new Morrissey compilation coming out on CD and vinyl on Friday 6th July.
It's a brand new compilation curated by the man himself ahead of his summer tour dates. The CD album is £4.99 with a 4 page booklet and liner notes by author Fiona Dodwell.
Those same liner notes are also on the LP (£18.99) only this time in French!
It's available to pre-order now and can be be posted out or collected from our Leeds city centre shop.
All at Crash
Posted by an anonymous person:
The CD has a track less according to Crash, Angel is missing. Obviously that makes a load of sense as normal, but I suppose we should be grateful the CD collectors are being considered at all.
Famous when dead adds the Piccadilly Records description:
Morrissey is never one to do things the accustomed way, instead throughout his career he's carved a niche in the musical landscape which only he can occupy. And his decision to curate a brand new compilation at very short notice ahead of his tour dates, with new liner notes and a few surprises in the tracklisting, shouldn't come as a shock to anyone.
So here it is, This Is Morrissey. A collection of studio classics, live tracks and the alternative Mael mix of the ever-popular 'Suedehead', all chosen by the man himself. He explains all on this brand new interview for tremr.com, with this neat little summary of the tracks he's chosen:
"The album is so full of life, and worthy questions, and great choruses, and quite playful."
Housed in a standard single CD jewel case, with a four page booklet and brand new liner notes by author Fiona Dodwell, there will be two versions of the CD product, a twelve track version for the world outside of North America and a ten track version for North America, final detail of which will be confirmed on a separate note at a later point. The digital version worldwide will reflect the twelve track CD release.
There is also a thirteen track vinyl edition, with the additional track 'Angel, Angel, Down We Go Together', complete with identical liner notes only this time written in French, another of Morrissey's little curio's.
...Looks like Piccadilly were correct.

Brevard SA (BSA) operates a Recreational Soccer program, which is referred to as our Community-Based Soccer program, during the Fall and Spring seasons. The Fall season matches typically begin the weekend after Labor Day, with team practices beginning towards the end of August. The Spring season matches typically begin in the middle of March, with team practices beginning in late February. BSA Community-Based soccer teams participate in the Brevard Youth Soccer League (BYSL). Players aged 11 (U11) to 18 (U18) of all skill levels are invited to participate in the BSA Community-Based program.
BSA operates the Community-Based Program at three locations: Max Rodes Park, Fred Poppe Park (aka Palm Bay Regional Park), and Flutie Athletic Complex. Players have the opportunity to register to participate at any of the three locations, and will be assigned to a team specific to a location. All practices and home matches will be at the location associated with the team. The purpose of the BSA Community-Based program is to provide players with an opportunity to enjoy and develop a love for the game of soccer, develop friendships on the field that carry-over off the field, and develop an understanding of teamwork and dedication. All this while getting some exercise.
2019/2020 Recreational Fees
U13 and up - $145
NOTE: Fees are based on per season. One season in the Fall and one in the Spring typically lasting 8 weeks each.
The uniform included in registration: 2 shirts (1 Gold for home & 1 Grey for away) which are new for the upcoming season. You may use black shorts & socks from previous seasons.

Ken Schoon opens the door to his small office on the third floor of the Library Conference Center at
The award will be presented during the Founders Day dinner and awards banquet Dec. 5 at the Eugene and Marilyn Glick Indiana History Center in Indianapolis. It recognizes a historian who has made distinguished contributions to the field of historical scholarship.
Schoon, professor emeritus of science education, is quick to point out, "I was a science teacher, not a history teacher." But it is not unusual for the Riker award to be bestowed across disciplines, according to the Indiana Historical Society.
Schoon has written books that drill deep into the bedrock of the history of Northwest Indiana.
"We always think of a historian as giving accounts of events and people and places of note," said Janet Moran, who previously served nine years as a member of the IHS board of trustees. She nominated Schoon for the award. "I felt that Ken's book on the 'Calumet Beginnings' was quite a different take on that. He approached history from more of a scientific bent.
"I've always been fascinated by geology and topography. He takes the Calumet Region back to the Ice Age and explains how the area was formed by the glaciers and what happened when the glaciers began to melt and there are still signs of that throughout the region and he points that out in his book. Then he talks about so many of the histories of the communities that formed – Native American settlements and pioneer migrations and the industrialization. I thought he wrapped the whole thing up in a great big box and I was very impressed with his work."
The Riker award was announced following the success of Schoon's newest book, "Shifting Sands: The Restoration of the Calumet Area," published by Indiana University Press. It is a companion to the documentary film "Shifting Sands on the Path to Sustainability," for which Schoon was interviewed.
The film, produced by Lee Botts, Tom Desch, Rana Segal and Pat Wisniewski, has been nominated for a 2016 Chicago/Midwest Regional Emmy Award and has aired on 240 public television networks.
"I was so happy that Ken did a book for the 'Shifting Sands,' " Moran said. "From my standpoint, I thought Ken was quite an exemplary historian."
Schoon also has written "Dreams of Duneland: A Pictorial History of the Indiana Dunes Region" and "City Trees: ID Guide to Urban and Suburban Species." Calumet Beginnings" is now in its sixth printing and in 2003 was named Outstanding Research Project by Indiana University Northwest.
Schoon grew up in Gary as a member of a large family that helped to establish some of the early farms. He was an undergraduate on the IUN campus 50 years ago and went on to earn his doctorate in curriculum and instruction from Loyola University of Chicago. He taught middle and high school science and later joined the science education faculty at IUN.
After switching his major from history to geology, a professor, Mark Reshkin, invited Schoon to serve on the board of the Indiana Dunes Environmental Learning Center. He did for 17 years. Reshkin also introduced Schoon to Lee Botts.
"Lee Botts is an environmentalist and founder of the Great Lakes Alliance. She started that in her living room in Chicago," Schoon said, adding that she now lives in Indiana. "She was not passively involved (in the environmental movement). Lee Botts — who is 88 years old now -- wanted this story told."
In 1970, Botts was a founding member of the Lake Michigan Federation, a group formed by citizens and organizations concerned about pollution of the lake. It helped form the Grand Calumet Task Force in the early 1970s. The federation was renamed the Great Lakes Alliance in 2005.
Schoon talked about the Calumet River and explained that at one time, there was not a living thing in it.
"Now salmon spawn there," he said.
He also talked about the reclamation of the Roxanna Marsh in East Chicago where an invasive plant species — phragmites (pronounced frag-mite-eez) — thrived while native plants could not.
"Indigenous insects do not recognize phragmites as food, so the grass does not have any natural predators," said Schoon. At the same time, the phragmites replace the plants that do provide food for those insects. The insects go hungry and die, as do native birds. The phragmites were disastrous for Roxanna Marsh, but by 2013 it had been restored, he said.
The story isn't over yet.
"The clean-up is an ongoing act. We've had remarkable success in the last 30 years, but there's more work to be done. When we clean up an area, we can't just walk away. The phragmites will come back."

On August 31, 2015, the Department of the Treasury (Treasury) and the Internal Revenue Service issued proposed and temporary rules providing guidance on the administration of the participant vote required under the benefit suspension provisions of the Multiemployer Pension Reform Act of 2014 (MPRA).
Generally, under MPRA, after a proposed benefit suspension has been approved by Treasury, it must be ratified by a vote of all participants and beneficiaries before Treasury can give its final authorization. A suspension will be approved unless a majority of all participants and beneficiaries vote against it.
The new temporary rules (New Rules) divide the administration of the MPRA participant vote into three steps. As a preliminary matter, Treasury is permitted to designate one or more service providers to perform either or both of the first two steps noted below:
The New Rules are retroactively applicable as of June 17, 2015. Comments on the New Rules must be provided by November 2, 2015.

Despite the fact that 93% of doctors are aware of Ministry of Health recommendation to vaccinate pregnant women against flu and whooping cough, only 70% of them follow these guidelines. One third of the physicians believes that both vaccines are either dangerous, or that their safety is questionable. 40% of the doctors who believe that these vaccinations are dangerous, would still recommend them to their patients. (Israel)
After Israeli nurses had been asked for 3 months to receive vaccines against whooping cough, only 2% (two percent) consented to do so. The nurses in question have been employed by Mother and Child Centers, and their primary duty is to vaccinate children.
Most nurses do not trust the health authorities, and desperately resist compulsory vaccinations. They fear the vaccines adverse effects and assume the hazard of influenza and whooping cough to be less severe than of the vaccines.
They believe that the parents should have the choice whether to vaccinate their child or not, and they demand the same respect for their own rights.
The nurses distinguish between their work and personal lives. While those nurses' duty is to vaccinate other's children, they consider their own vaccination status to be their private business, and do not assume that informing the parents of their opinion about vaccinations or their own vaccination status is necessary.
The authors of the study concluded that the nurses who do the vaccinations are, in fact, opposing vaccinations. (Israel)
This is probably the most important study of all those presented herein. In most of the other studies, data was collected from answers of medical doctors to surveys. Doctors perfectly understand that they are expected to not refer to vaccinations in a negative way, therefore it is reasonable to assume that the real proportion of doctors who do not vaccinate their children is much higher. The data in this study on the other hand is not based on surveys but rather on factual immunization records. 98% of nurses whose main duty is to vaccinate children refuse to be vaccinated themselves!
Israeli doctors, notwithstanding, also refuse to be vaccinated against the flu.
Israel was the first country in the world to add hepatitis A vaccine to the national immunization schedule in 1999. Within three years, hepatitis A incidence decreased by more than 98% among the vaccinated, and by 95% among the general population.
Before the beginning of vaccination, 47% of the Jewish population had antibodies, and 12 years later it was already 67%. Among the Arab population, 83% had antibodies before the beginning of vaccination, and 88% had them 12 years later. That is, same as in Taiwan, it is not clear whether vaccination was the only factor responsible for reducing the incidence.
Type 1 diabetes incidence among children under 18 years of age in Israel increased by 6% per annum between 2000 and 2008. Among children under 5 years of age, it increased by 104% in 6 years. The authors suggested that viral infections could be one of the factors in the disease, which mean that rotavirus vaccination might reduce the risk of diabetes. It turned out, however, that there were 7.4 times more vaccinated than unvaccinated among type 1 diabetes patients.
University-educated parents were 2.1 times more likely to refuse vaccinations compared to parents with a high school education. Jewish parents were 4 times more likely to refuse to have their children vaccinated compared to Muslims, and Christian parents were 3.29 percent more likely to refuse than Muslim parents.
The older the mother, the more likely the refusal to vaccinate. (Israel)
Another study in Israel also found that colonization with pneumococcus, especially vaccine serotypes, negatively correlated with colonization of S. aureus in children.
Two years after the start of vaccination, the incidence of invasive pneumococcal infections among adults in Israel has not changed.
In Israel, after the onset of vaccination, the incidence of hemophilic infection fell by 90% by 1996, and remained low in subsequent years.
For a long time I doubted about the vaccinations from Hib and pneumococcus, because these diseases can really be dangerous.The fact that I personally put the final cross on these vaccinations was the following article published in a rather marginal journal specializing in hypotheses It seems that even for this marginal magazine, the article was too marginal, and accompanied by an editorial article in which they write that, despite , that the theme of the connection between vaccines and autism is already worn to holes and a denial bent, and that although the author of the article is not a scientist at all, his hypothesis is, nevertheless, quite plausible, and it should be checked.
I highly recommend reading this article in full.
Editorial article is also worth reading.
Conjugated vaccines radically change immunological response to carbohydrate antigens In the absence of a conjugated vaccine, carbohydrate antigens usually do not induce an immune response of T cells, but induce a weaker response (T-cell independent). This is due to the fact that B2 cells do not synthesize antibodies without the signal of T-helper cells. In order for this to happen, the B2-cell, and its related T-helper cell, should recognize the same, or similar epitope. But since T cells recognize only protein epitopes, T helper cells are usually able to activate B2 cells in response to protein antigens. In response to bacterial capsular polysaccharides, the immune system forms a response through cells B1 and MZB (Marginal zone B). B1 cells do not begin to react to bacterial carbohydrate antigens until 18-24 months, and their response does not fully mature until about 5 years of age. Therefore, infants and young children are unable to respond effectively to capsular bacteria. Conjugated vaccines use the fact that B2 cells and their related T helper cells do not have to respond to an identical epitope, but rather recognize closely related epitopes. Although the mechanisms by which conjugate vaccines work are not fully understood, it is believed that antigen-presenting cells, treat the combined protein carrier and carbohydrate hapten, which leads to recognition of the protein carrier by T-helper cells, and recognition of carbohydrate antigens by B2 cells. That is, conjugated vaccines change the immunological response to carbohydrate antigens in infants and young children, from a hypo-sensitive to a full T cell response.
Because antibodies against carbohydrate antigens are often autoreactive with their own carbohydrates, the differentiation of B cells to B2 cells can lead to an autoimmune reaction. Therefore, B cells against carbohydrate antigens are carefully regulated by the immune system. Antibodies to native carbohydrates are associated with several autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, myocarditis and rheumatic heart disease, Sydenham's chorea, and children's autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorders associated with Streptococcal infections (PANDAS).
Unlike antibodies produced by B2 cells, antibodies produced by B1 and MZB cells are short-lived and low-affinity, and conducted to an autoimmune reaction with
Autism has an increased level of antibodies to nervous structures and an increased level of proinflammatory cytokines in the brain, which indicates that autoimmune and neuroinflammatory processes can play a role in some cases of autism.
Because myelinization (the formation of an insulating nerve fibers) is most intense during the first 9 months of life, and continues in early childhood, neuronal development in infants and young children can be particularly vulnerable to self-reactive antibodies, including those that react with glycoproteins in myelin sheaths.
The first conjugate vaccine (from Hib) appeared in the US in 1988, and was later licensed in most other developed countries, including Denmark in 1993, and Izr ail, where it was licensed in 1992, and introduced into the national vaccination calendar in 1994.
The incidence of autism began to rise dramatically in the US since births in the middle of 1987. In Denmark and Israel, the jump in autism began about 5 years later.
In 1990, the vaccine was licensed to infants from the age of two months, which may explain the further increase in autism.Another explanation for the increase in autism in the mid-90s could be a change in the protein carrier used in the vaccine, which made her more immune gene. If the Hib vaccine is an autism trigger, then an increase in its immunogenicity and a change in the binding site may increase the likelihood of autism.
The licensing of the pneumococcal vaccine in 2000 may partially explain the further increase in autism. Children born in 1995 were the first to be vaccinated against pneumococcus, and this is consistent with CDC data, according to which the level of autism in 1992-1994 did not change, and in 1998 autism was already 57% higher than in 1994, m.
In Denmark, the Hib vaccine was licensed in 1993, but immediately followed by an aggressive vaccination campaign for children, starting in 1988, which coincides with the growth of autism among those born in 1988 and later. > In Israel, the number of children receiving disability benefits due to autism did not change from 1972 to 1995. But from 1996 to 1998, their number increased 5-fold, which is explained by this hypothesis. In 2004, 11% of the beneficiaries were born in 1985-89 (before vaccine licensing), 21.1% were born in 1990-94 (the beginning of vaccination), and 37% were born in 1995-99 (immediately after the vaccination was introduced National calendar). The immune system in response to the carbohydrate membrane of capsular bacteria produces antibodies through B1 and MZB cells in adults, and in children older than 5 years. But children under 5 years of age react poorly to carbohydrate antigens. Conjugated vaccines consist of a protein carrier attached to a carbohydrate antigen, and are able to circumvent this restriction of the immune system to carbohydrate antigens in children. Due to the protein carrier, these vaccines can induce the production of antibodies by B2 cells.
The development of antibodies to carbohydrate antigens via B2 cells is a significant departure from the natural paradigm in which B1 and MZB cells usually produce short-lived antibodies against carbohydrate antigens, and B2 cells produce more long-living against protein antigens. In addition to the fact that the immune system of children under 5 years of age reacts poorly to capsular bacteria, the maternal IgM and IgG2 antibodies do not pass well the placenta, from which it follows that the embryos are probably also not protected from capsular bacteria. From the point of view of evolution, this is quite unexpected. It is possible that this evolutionary flaw is accompanied by a compensatory evolutionary advantage. One possible explanation is that antibodies to carbohydrate antigens can be cross-reactive with neuronal glycoproteins, and a fine balance has been achieved, by evolution, between evolutionary protection against capsular bacteria and the need for development of the nervous system. This is consistent with the fact that myelination begins with infancy, and lasts until early childhood, which coincides with the period during which the immune system is hypo-sensitive to carbohydrate antigens. Moreover, the period during which the immune system is least sensitive to carbohydrate antigens corresponds to the period of the most intense myelination. It is possible that antibodies to carbohydrates not only interfere with the development of the nervous system in infants and young children, but their negative effects are strengthened by a stable a response of the immune system induced by conjugated vaccines, which significantly disturbs the balance achieved by evolution.
A mumps outbreak in Israel (over 5,000 cases). 78% had been fully vaccinated. Mostly teenagers and adults got sick. In other countries (Austria, USA, Netherlands, Great Britain) mumps outbreaks were also observed among teenagers and college students, whereas in countries where there is no vaccination against mumps, children aged 5-9 years got sick.
Despite the high vaccination coverage (90-97%), mumps antibodies were found in only 68% of the population.
The authors report that the recent mumps outbreaks have been caused by the genotype G virus, whereas the vaccine contains genotype A. However, they do not believe that it is related to the outbreaks and suggest introducing a third dose of the vaccine.
Death from diphtheria in developed countries is so rare that every such case is widely reported in the media. In 2015, a boy died of diphtheria in Spain, and in 2008, a girl died in England. These seem to be the only deaths of children from diphtheria in developed countries in the last 30 years.
There is a complete medical consensus on that natural immunity against tetanus is impossible, and only a vaccine can prevent the disease.
The authors ran blood tests of two hundred randomly selected immigrants from Ethiopia to Israel and found tetanus antibodies in 98% of them. 30% of them had the level of antibodies that is considered protective (above 0.01 UI/ml). None of them have been vaccinated.
The amount of antibodies increased with age. The authors concluded that natural immunity is produced from continuous contact with the bacteria.
Researchers ran blood tests of 120 randomly selected women living in Israeli kibbutzim. All of them had sufficient levels of antibodies against tetanus toxin, despite the fact that 12.5% of them had never been vaccinated.
Many of them were not fully vaccinated (from 6% among the young to 68% among the elderly).
While there are hundreds of case reports for different vaccines, we have not yet cited any until now. This case occurred in the year 2000, when a whole-cell (i.e., more effective) vaccine was administered to a 2-month-old child in Israel. Despite the entire family (mother, aunt and three brothers - 2, 5 and 11 years old) being fully vaccinated, the child died of whooping cough at an age of 4 months. Moreover, both younger brothers who were at kindergarten had also been fully vaccinated with four doses. The mother of the child developed a cough that lasted for three consecutive months. The two other brothers also coughed heavily, and although the 18-year-old aunt who lived with them did not cough, she was also ill. In the end, it turned out that the whole family – five people - was infected with pertussis. In addition, five children from both kindergartens (11%) were also infected, although only two of them fell under the new definition of whooping cough as stated by the WHO. The authors of this study concluded that the pertussis vaccination does not fully protect children from whooping cough, that its effectiveness does not even reach into early childhood, and that vaccinated children act as a "quiet reservoir" of infection in current society.
In Israel, since 2005 the Israeli vaccine Sci-B-Vac has been used. only in the center of Israel and in the south (because the entire market can not be given to one producer).In July 2015, this vaccine was withdrawn. According to a statement by the Ministry of Health, it was recalled because the ampoules arrived on the machine that glued the labels too quickly, which could theoretically result in micro-cracks and bacterial contamination. the population was asked not to worry, but the vaccine was withdrawn.Two years have passed since then, but the vaccine did not return to the market, and probably could not solve the problem of sticking labels.
Sci-B-Vac is a third-generation vaccine, the first generation was a live vaccine, the second generation is a recombinant (genetically modified) vaccine containing virus-like particles. The third generation vaccine contains two more antigens, and therefore gives more strong immune response.
The only published clinical trial of the vaccine included 150 children. The vaccine did not receive a permission from the FDA. The Ministries of Health Committee report which allowed the vaccination in Israel, somewhere disappeared.
Many parents argue that the children because of this vaccination had strong side effects, developmental delays, etc. What is not very surprising, since it contained twice as much aluminum, in addition, it has three antigens instead of one, which further increases the risk of autoimmune reaction. Why this will be dismantled in another part.
Side effects of vaccination were observed in 57% of children who received MMR and pentavalent vaccine simultaneously, but only in 40% among those, who only received the MMR vaccine.
Authors conclude that, perhaps, the current policy on simultaneous vaccinations should be reviewed.
The risk of pervasive developmental disorder in children of Ethiopian immigrants, born in Israel, is much lower, than in children of non-Ethiopians. However, among the Israeli children born in Ethiopia, there was not a single case of pervasive developmental disorder (among 11,800 children). The authors conclude that childbirth in Israel, an industrialized country, is a marker of an environmental risk of autism.

Although season 5 is the only season of Angel I have watched I don't remember a brainwashed senator. When did he appear?
................................ Banner by buffylover
Well,I consider After The Fall and season 8-12 canon so they factor into my views on the shows now looking back.
I know it's a unpopular opinion and one Joss himself disagrees with but I still consider Not Fade Away a cliffhanger ending and a season finale forced to be a series finale.As a cliffhanger season finale,yes it would of worked for me but it just does not satisfy me as a end to the series
Again,I know most here and Joss himself disagree.
But Not Fade Away now works much better for me because of After The Fall.For me,After The Fall is a much more satisfying series finale.Angel's story then continued in seasons 8-12 but if it hadn't,After Of the Fall would of worked perfectly for me as a cap to Angel's story and Angel The Series.Much more than Not Fade Away anyway.
Again,I know that's a unpopular opinion but it's just how I feel.

Mike Conolley was her political rival who she wanted brainwashed in Power Play. What else could she be referring to when she said this? Angel totally had him brainwashed. He was collateral damage for his plan.
What put me off about it isn't really the death mission, but that it was a pointless death mission and moreover a mission that would put hundreds, possibly thousands of lives in peril. Not just in LA but everywhere. What is to stop W&H from just going nuts and go after Angel's special people like they did Cordy in That Vision Thing?
All said regarding writers, producers, actors, directors, viewers, readers, etc. are what I remember, my opinions, etc.

* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVi_a6jsByU (hour-long panel) (2019, 10-05)
This is actually a great watch, if you have the time. I got some new info regarding some stuff.
I find it surprising that it seems Amy Acker is more popular than Charisma Carpenter regarding these Angel panels. Amy has Root from Person of Interest --which I never saw past the series premiere. She says she gets recognized around "half and half" for Angel and Person of Interest .
James says he gets recognized for Runaways as a "close second" to being recognized for Spike.
Amy was also one of the stars of the X-Men series,"The Gifted."
They used his character (Connor) to cuckold his own father - and did it with the woman who had been the closest to a mother to him, not to mention the fact that he "read" as a child (a virgin). It reads like child sex abuse and an abuse of power. It is only after we are thorughly disgusted by "Cordy" that we learn the truth.
Charisma was dealt a killing blow to her career and Vincent was the weapon. His character had such potential. Then he %=÷*+ his mom. I would hate it too. Glad he got to be sane and funny in season 5.
It is to his credit he landed shows like Mad Men. Sadly, much as I adore pre seduction Cordelia, Charisma lacks the acting chops of the others. If she had not done that full on sex predator role, I bet she would have landed some nice sitcom where she could play herself (bitchy but with heart) instead of the minimal guest parts she has had.
- - - Updated - - -
I think he used what they gave him well. He is a fine actor and I think Connor ends up as a tragic, complicated character. I dont hate him, but I hate what they did with him.
Season 4 (at least the arc with him and Cordy) was a major wrong turn for the show and permanently damaged both characters. I think it also factored into the cancelation of the series.
Until that arc, I actually connected more with Angel (which I started watching first). I think when Joss started to juggle shows like dinner plates, something was bound to crash and burn. The world on fire motif was fitting. Had it been anyone but Joss, i doubt there would have been a season 5. James was a fortuitous distraction and lightened the darkness we ended with. Killing Jasmine was necessay, but the way Connor did it did not help us view him any more warmly. It was chilling.

Iraq Report: Assassination campaigns
Both the Mahdi Army and al Qaeda in Iraq appear to have conducted bold assassination attempts on Iraqis working with the Coalition. Both attacks occurred on August 11, one in Baghdad and the other in the contested city of Diwaniyah.
Khalil Jalil Hamza , the governor of Qadisiyah province along with newly appointed provincial police chief Khalid Hassan and three security guards were killed in a bombing as they returned from a funeral in a nearby town. Governor Hamza was a member of the Supreme Islamic Iraqi Council, while Police Chief Hassan "was considered a political independent."ť
While President Jalal Talabani blamed Sunni terrorists for the attacks, the likelihood is this assassination was carried out by the Mahdi Army. Iraqi security forces and US and Coalition forces have conducted fierce battles with the Mahdi Army in the city of Diwaniyah over the past year. The Mahdi Army has been battling with Iraqi security forces to control the city. An operation in April netted over 40 Mahdi Army fighters and killed several others, while another 40 Mahdi fighters were killed and several others captured during battles in October.
On August 5, the Mahdi Army attempted to assassinate Brig. Gen. Falah Hassan Kanbar, a Shiite commander in the Kazimiyah district in Baghdad. Kanbar is described as "the cleanest guy you can find in Kazimiyah,"ť by an Army captain in the district, and he works closely with US forces.
Al Qaeda in Iraq conducted an assassination attempt inside Baghdad on August 11. The terror group bombed the home of Wathiq al-Obeidi, a Sunni leader in the Azamiyah neighborhood, then followed up the bombing with an assault. Obeidi "called on residents in the northern Baghdad neighborhood of Azamiyah to rise up against foreign fighters,"ť the Associated Press reported.
"We have to fight foreign fighters in our city," Obeidi reportedly said during a sermon last week. "We have to fight those linked to Al Qaeda in Azamiyah." The Islamic State of Iraq, al Qaeda™s puppet organization, accused Obeidi of working with the Anbar Salvation Council, which is responsible for routing al Qaeda in its former stronghold. Al Qaeda's assassination campaign backfired in Anbar province, as the tribes united to oppose al Qaeda's attempts to dominate the western region.
Iraqi and Coalition forces continue the relentless operations against al Qaeda™s network of cell leaders, weapons smugglers and foreign fighter facilitators. Five al Qaeda operatives were killed and 69 captured since the last Friday™s report. Ten al Qaeda were captured and two were killed during a series of raids on August 10 and 11 in Hawija, Balad, and Baghdad. Three terrorists were killed and 10 captured during raids on foreign terrorist cells in Samarra and north of Maqdadiyah on August 10. Thirty al Qaeda in Iraq operatives were captured in raids in Baghdad, Mosul, Karmah, Tarmiyah, Tikrit, and Samarra on August 12. Iraqi Special Operations Forces captured 16 al Qaeda fighters during a raid in Subayat Hamash, near Sinjar on August 11, and captured three al Qaeda operatives in Yusifiyah on August 10, including an emir of a large cell.
Coalition forces are maintaining the pressure on the Iranian-backed Special Groups cells and the rogue Mahdi Army units. An evening raid in Sadr City in Baghdad resulted in 13 Special Groups fighters captured and five killed. "Coalition Forces conducted the raid to capture or kill highly-sought weapons facilitators with connections to the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps - Qods Force in Iran,"ť the Multinational Forces Iraq press release stated.
The Special Groups cells are moving explosively formed projectiles into Iraq and are training fighters inside Iran, all with the help of Qods Force. A computer hard drive, documents, and photographs were found during the raid, which will likely provide additional intelligence for future operations. Also, on August 10, US forces captured a commander of a Mahdi Army extrajudicial murder cell responsible for attacking an Iraqi military checkpoint.

Tip of the Week #142 – Setup for Finished Sheets and Finished Items on a Single Press
This week, Senior Consultant Jörg Hüner has a tip for mixed configuration cost centers.
Question: Is it possible to set up a finishing machine Cost Center to calculate for both finished sheets and finished items?
Yes – and different scenarios are available with the setup that is described here, not just the different types of finishing that have an impact on the finished quantity.
But for such a setup, PrintVis provides the Cost Center type: Mixed Configuration:
With this option it's possible to determine the machine type on the configuration itself. For this example, two configurations are required:
- Configuration for finished sheets or signatures
- Configuration for finished items
Now, you might be thinking, "Isn't a finished signature an individual item?" While the answer is technically yes, it is also not the desired Item in its final configuration – a book, which is what PrintVis would be calculating for in a Finished Item setup. So – the system is looking at the ordered quantity of finished items – or sheets, or signatures – and calculating according to that setup.
Configuration 1:
Finishing Signatures of sheets: The production quantity is based on signatures per printed sheet (+ scrap/waste).
Configuration 2:
Finished Items: The production quantity is based on the ordered quantity (+ scrap/waste); For example the number of books on a perfect binder or an inserter (multiple sheets in one envelope).
Each Configuration will then be linked to an individual Calculation Unit.
This works as well for printing presses that can handle both sheet and web paper. This is needed for example on wide format presses or sheet presses that have a sheeter attached.
For this scenario, set up 2 configurations, where:
- Is set up as a sheet-fed press
- Is set up as a web-fed press
In older versions it was necessary to set up 3 separate cost centers – one for signatures, one for sheets and one for items. The PrintVis Mixed Configuration setup option alleviates all this extra work.
Thank you Jörg!

To help reinforce the Think Blink campaign message, TFOS has also launched a new song to promote global eye-health. "Blink Around the World is a fun and catchy way to remind people to blink their eyes, which both exercises and protects this preciously vital organ," says Amy Gallant Sullivan, Executive Director of TFOS. "The simple act of blinking reduces dry eye symptoms by flushing fresh tears over the eye, re-moisturizing and keeping foreign matter and irritants out."
Unfortunately, dry eye causes us to blink less and blinking is a self-help treatment, so we all need to blink more.
Sullivan is amassing a coalition of partners including scientists, clinicians, pharma and patients to help spread the importance of blinking and eye health. TFOS collaborated with Italian pop singer Sabrina to create the new music single. "Blink Around the World," the song, can be purchased on Amazon.com or via iTunes.
"Blink Around the World is a fun way of generating awareness & invites people to creatively think about eye health," says Amy Gallant Sullivan, of the Tear Film & Ocular Surface Society (TFOS) and Think Blink campaign creator.
Proceeds from the sale of Blink Around the World will benefit the TFOS educational mission.

Ridiculous by D.L. Carter is a regency romance with a twist.
After the death of her miserly cousin, Antony North, Millicent Boarder fakes her own death and assumes his identity in order to ensure her mother and two sisters are properly cared for rather than face the poorhouse as they have once before. Mr North was quite wealthy with numerous properties and on a trip to visit one of her new estates, she comes across a Duke and his sister who have had a carriage accident. They make fast friends and Millicent is quickly swept up into the Ton.
But the success of her switching her gender as well as her identity has left Millicent with a new problem. Now she's finally become a man, she's found one of her own to love. But revealing her identity could see her hanged for her crimes and her family lose everything.
This was a fun read. Millicent is feisty and funny and I loved her as Mr North. I would have given this five stars if it wasn't for the way the love story developed at the end. That part fell a little flat for me, but otherwise it was a quick and easy read.
4 Stars.

The poet Ted Hughes once wrote about the landscape of North England near where he was born: "Death-struggle of the glacier/Enlarged the long gullet of Calder/Down which its corpse vanished."
There's a lot of death-struggle — and a corpse or two or a few — in 29-year-old Fiona Mozley's debut novel, a lyrical and mythic work that was shortlisted for this year's Man Booker Prize. Mozley grew up in the York area, like Hughes, and her novel is set in the Yorkshire countryside, which long ago was the Celtic kingdom of Elmet.
"Elmet" derives a good deal of its power from the dichotomy between its primary character — a taciturn giant named John who makes his living as an undefeated bare-knuckle brawler in underground fights — and its narrator, John's sensitive 14-year-old son, Daniel.
Daniel and his tougher, more resourceful sister, 15-year-old Cathy, live with their father in a remote wood in Northern England, in a home John built himself. This move was most directly prompted by Cathy being reprimanded at school for fighting back against bullies. "He wanted to keep us separate, in ourselves, apart from the world," Daniel says, and so the siblings are raised in this "strange, sylvan otherworld" where they make their own bows and arrows. Cathy rolls her own cigarettes. They eat doves, deer and skylarks.
They do all this rugged living on a land "made of myths," as Daniel describes it. Mozley is working toward a Ph.D. in medieval history, and her story is rooted, actually and tonally, in ancient soil. The mentions, early on, of cars and television sets are surprising, some of the first indicators that we're anywhere north of, say, the 12th century. The successful execution of this bold strategy, to voice a story set in the present day as if it could be happening nearly any time in human history, is just one indicator of Mozley's skill and ambition.
There is little work to be had for the novel's characters; the jobs left the region "20 years ago or more." Now farm owners take advantage of seasonal workers, and locals feel increasingly alienated. "I'm paying to live on a piece of land," one woman complains, "that we, all of us, used to own together."
John has built his family's home on land owned by a man named Price, who controls much of the surrounding area. He and John, it turns out, have a fraught history. In an attempt to hurt Price, John helps several workers and tenants organize to fight for better wages and lower rents. Steinbeckian themes of collectivism move to the fore. Whether Price will let John peaceably live on the land he has claimed for himself becomes the novel's considerable dramatic fuel.
Where is the children's mother? "We almost never spoke of her," Daniel says, and John's "mentioning her was so rare that we did not know whether to take it as an invitation or as a warning."
John sends the children to spend days with a nearby family friend named Vivien, a normalizing and educative influence. Vivien is worldly, and teaches Daniel about art and travel while Cathy runs through the fields and woods. ("I had an inside sort of head. She had an outside sort of head," Daniel says of him and his sister.) Vivien also teaches Daniel how to think of his father's tendencies, comparing John's need for violence to a whale's occasional breaching in one of Mozley's many arresting passages about the natural world.
Daniel, pale and skinny with long hair, is in many ways the opposite of his father and his sister, whose strength is badly misjudged by those who provoke her. "You have to appreciate that I never thought of myself as a man," he explains at one point in a moving and understated passage about his still-forming gender identification.
Mozley's language is often subtle, but her protagonist is not. Physically, John might as well be Jack Reacher, the invincible hulk who wanders through Lee Child's best-selling series of thrillers. Daniel describes his father as "gargantuan," a foot taller than even the most intimidating men in the area; "each of his arms was as thick as two of theirs." Philosophically, he wouldn't be out of place in an Ayn Rand novel, given the cult he makes out of self-sufficiency. "I won't work for any man ever again," he says. "My body is my own. It is all I own." (In believing that all he needs is to be left alone, John neatly shows where Rand's Supermen overlap with the frontier mentality of Laura Ingalls Wilder's less pretentious heroes; where modesty meets megalomania.)
Debut novels especially can sometimes too clearly betray their debts, but "Elmet" is a beguiling patchwork of influences held together by Mozley's distinct voice. It begins with an italicized, hazy remembrance of a fiery scene, ending with: "The remains of Elmet lie beneath my feet." If it recalls Hughes ("Remains of Elmet" being the title of the poem quoted above), it also carries a whisper of the way Manderley is remembered at the beginning of Daphne du Maurier's gothic classic "Rebecca." Mozley has cited Cormac McCarthy's "Blood Meridian" as a favorite novel, and though she doesn't try to sustain McCarthy's sonorous tone — a disastrous temptation to which some writers succumb — she occasionally channels his nature-besotted intensity: "The dawn erupted from a bud of mauve half-light and bloomed bloody as I woke."
In its signposting and pacing, "Elmet" promises a reckoning, and we get one. The climactic scene is full of bedlam. It is also cartoonish. One might balk at its outlandishness, or squirm at its vivid, protracted violence, but it keeps your attention and doesn't leave any fireworks unpopped.
Mozley's characters sometimes say things they would never say; Price's villainy is too pure; the story's political complexities about property ownership and labor are too efficiently reduced. But despite the book's frequent attention to realistic details, it is securely situated in fable territory, and Mozley's sheer storytelling confidence sends the reader sailing past almost every speed bump.
