Solving world hunger may just come down to genetics
March 25, 2022
Genetically modified organism (GMO) foods are the best foods available, and the shunning of genetic modification is holding us back from permanently solving tons of problems, especially hunger and famine. The reason why so few purchase GMO is because of all the fear, uncertainty, and doubt surrounding it. It's a big scary acronym like LSD or WMD, and people don't want to ingest something they don't quite understand. If people started supporting GMO products, we could eventually live in a culinary utopia in which we have enough inexpensive food for everyone, and then some. We might even be able to fix even greater things than food with this tech, but people like the word "organic" printed on their groceries.
GMO crops alone can save the world in terms of food and reduce climate change. We can take any crop and make it perfect: It could grow faster, need less water, produce a higher yield, more reliably grow out of each seed, be more resilient to pests and disease, and have it grow in nearly any climate regardless of sun, soil, heat, or cold. The use of fertilizer, synthetic and organic, causes tons of nitrogen to go into the soil, which farmers get rid of through the nitrification-denitrification process. This produces Nitrous Oxide, a greenhouse gas 310 times more powerful than CO2, and is the largest cause of CO2 from farms. GMO crops won't need fertilizer, and therefore won't have so much CO2 produced from growing them. If we do this with enough different crops, we could have farms producing so much food for such little money in so many places that no one would go hungry. Heck, I could grow all the food I need in a planting bed in my backyard if GMO seeds were consumer products.
GMOs aren't just for plants. We can apply what we've learned from plant modification to animals. We all know the horrors of the meat industry: animals locked in cages, inches away from each other, spending all day getting fat only to be slaughtered for our consumption. Life is undesirable for these creatures. We could design animals that don't feel pain, that aren't suffering, and don't fear death. Even if we don't care about how a couple of birds feel before we eat them, the effects of the meat industry hurts us all. Livestock is the second largest cause of CO2 from the farming industry right after soil management, and we could make animals more efficient, producing less of the gas. The animals could also eat less, produce more meat, produce cleaner meat without diseases, tastier meat, healthier meat, and so on. Like crops, we would have better, cheaper, and more plentiful meat.
Finally, we can genetically modify human beings. While this initially sounds like something out of a sci-fi horror movie, the benefits of protecting our descendants from the minor genetic deformities and diseases we all carry is overwhelming. We could delete family history of diseases, remove gross genetic disorders, and maybe even solve Down Syndrome. Not only could we fix the human genetic structure, we can also give genetically modified people greater abilities. Humanity can become stronger, faster, smarter, lighter, and better in nearly every way, and that's without making as little large-scale modification as adding an extra finger.It's hard to see all the ways genetic modification can improve humanity since the technology to edit genes the way we do is still relatively new and rapidly improving, but if we actively develop this field, we could grow into a species where Albert Einstein would look dumb as a rock comparatively. The only question we have to answer is "how far should we go? Should we leave our genes alone and not rock the boat, or should we push ourselves beyond the limits installed in us?" I don't think anyone knows for sure, but the potential for greatness is blindingly bright.
However, it's important not to be blinded by that light, at least not yet. Just as there is great support for GMOs, there's also great resistance. GMOs so far have not made many giant leaps and bounds in creating super-foods, super-animals, or super-humans. As a species, we are still learning the alphabet of genetics. We are rapidly learning and improving our techniques, sure, but to attempt what I propose we would be painting the Mona Lisa with a super soaker. Getting ahead of ourselves could be killing ourselves. So far our GMO experimentation has side effects, like engineered cattle without horns also being resistant to antibiotics. In addition, companies creating GMO products are pressuring third world countries to buy their seeds, regardless of the peoples' resistance to it. Finally, GMO products are underwhelming, as many of the projects involving them keep failing, such as pests evolving to eat pest-resistant crops, or GMO seeds producing lower-quality crops than regular ones, or drought resistant seeds still not being drought resistant enough, and so on. As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't matter how many failed experiments or terrible side effects we have. In fact, I like seeing failures because of how much we can learn about them. That being said, I would rather fail with plants that feel no pain than fail with animals that do. The tools to edit genes are still very, very, very new, and we have yet to learn how to use them well. Imagine a kindergartener playing the piano without a teacher. He's going to be horrible, and continue to be horrible at it for a while. Over time, he'll figure out what keys make what sounds, how sheet music correlates with sound, and what combinations of keypresses lead to something that sounds good. We are the same way with GMOs. Sure, we suck. But we're far better than we once were, and eventually we'll stop sucking entirely. As far as companies being corrupt goes, that's just going to happen, GMO or not. The only real way to stop them is not from shunning the field in which they work, but to shun those specific companies and buy from their competitors. If Kleenex comes out saying that they make their tissues with child labor, and if you care about not supporting such a business, you switch to Puffs instead. What you don't do is throw your hands up and say "Screw tissues, I'll just use my fingers, like I did since I was five!" Next time you're buying groceries, don't buy food just because it says "organic" on the label, buy the food that will support the research that will drive humanity forward. Don't stick your fingers up your schnozz to pull mucus out, sanitarily blow it.

"I am very sad to hear about the passing of Lord Bill McKenzie.
The Bill I knew was a dedicated public servant committed to celebrating diversity and improving people's lives across Luton and the UK. We are all the better for knowing Bill and listening to his thoughtful, well-considered expert advice derived from decades of public service.
Bill was a Labour activist for over 50 years, and as a Luton Councillor for 22 years, including a term as Leader of the Council, his contribution to our town will never be forgotten. Bill was elevated to the House of Lords in 2004 and has served as a Minister in the Labour Government and later as a Shadow Minister in Opposition.
I want to send my deepest condolences to Di and their family members."

Blue Jays' Aaron Sanchez may start on the wrong foot again
While he's apparently recovering nicely from a September surgery on his finger, it's possible that Aaron Sanchez may be slightly delayed to start Spring Training.
The Blue Jays are going to enter the 2019 season with a lot of questions about their starting rotation, especially after the departures of J.A. Happ and Marco Estrada. One familiar question they'll be asking though, is how many starts they'll get from Aaron Sanchez, the talented right-hander who has struggled with injury issues for the last two years.
The 2018 season was a bit of a "two steps forward, one step back" situation for Sanchez, as he managed to make 12 more starts than he had a year before, but it still only equated to 20 total appearances. That brings him to just 28 starts in the last two seasons, and unfortunately familiar issues reared their head last year, even if they were the result of a different catalyst that sent him to the disabled list. In 2017 it was fingernail, blister, and tendon issues that kept him on the disabled list, and last season it was a lost fight to a suitcase.
All joking aside, Sanchez caught his finger in a failing suitcase and caused the injury that caused him to miss more than two months, from his June 21st start until his return on August 25th. The timing was also unfortunate, as it seemed like he was building on his success on the mound and had put together a string of solid outings in June before the injury.
More from Jays Journal
- Matt Chapman has been exactly what the Blue Jays needed
- Blue Jays: The goalposts are moving in the right direction
- Single-A Dunedin Blue Jays advance to the Championship Series
- Blue Jays: Comparisons for Alek Manoah's Second Season
- Blue Jays: Adam Cimber, the unlikely decision King
Fast forward to the present day, and we're still asking ourselves how that wonky finger of Sanchez's is doing. According to reports from the Winterfest weekend, it sounds like things are more or less on track after the surgery he had in September. There was a caveat however, that he might be delayed by a week or so once things get underway in Dunedin.
While this would sound like a casual statement for nearly anyone else, we've learned things are never that simple when it comes to Sanchez. For weeks we heard that he was close to re-joining the Blue Jays rotation last year, only to see him return when the season was nearly over, and to finally learn the real cause of his injury. You can't blame Sanchez or the staff for wanting to keep it under wraps, but even though it was a freak injury it still seemed like a blow to his future value.
Again, this might be nothing other than conservative language being used for a guy who has managed to find a crack in the sidewalk to trip on before, but it's not the kind of thing I was hoping to hear in the middle of January. By now it would be nice to hear definitive and confident statements about his short term future, not more uncertainty.
Because the thing is, the last time we heard uncertain language about the former first round pick, he didn't make it back to the mound for over two months. There may not be any reason to worry right now, but until we see Sanchez on the mound on a regular basis, the question will remain.

In the past few years, the performance of cannabis investment is not ideal, and there is still great uncertainty in the cannabis market in 2023. In the short term, the risks of bankruptcy and financial instability remain, but the stability and opportunities of long-term investment in the cannabis industry are certain.
Looking forward to 2023, these 6 trends in the cannabis industry deserve special attention.
1. US political uncertainty will continue
Politics plays an extremely important role in the American marijuana market, so marijuana investors pay close attention to the dynamics of the United States Congress. In 2022, the market has high expectations for the reform of the marijuana bank in the United States. It is hoped that the financing environment of marijuana companies will be improved. But so far, lawmakers have not reached an agreement on whether the Safe and Fair Implementation (SAFE) Banking Act will be included in other bills. Charles Taerk, president and CEO of Faircourt Asset Management, said that if the Democrats really want to seek common ground, they should have done it in the past two years. In 2023, the US Republican Party will control the House of Representatives.
2. Cash flow of some interstate marijuana operators in the United States will increase significantly
The US marijuana market is very fragmented, which brings difficulties to stock selection. Taerk, the fund manager of Ninepoint Alternative Health Fund, is optimistic about MSOs such as Green Thumb Industries Inc. (CSE: GTII) (OTCQX: GTBIF) and Trulieve Cannabis Corp. (CSE: TRUL) (OTCQX: TCNNF) based on their sound balance sheets, high operating efficiency and higher profit margins. In addition, Taerk pointed out that the large-scale capital expenditure plans of interstate operators are expected to end, which will drive the substantial growth of cash flow of these companies. Cannabis packaging industry will remain hot.
3. The sale of adult marijuana in New York State has attracted much attention
Experts predict that more states in the United States will start the cannabis market in 2023, of which New York is undoubtedly the most concerned state. The opening of New York State may overturn the status quo of the cannabis market. The existing medical cannabis operators in the state are also expected to start selling recreational cannabis. However, the first 36 temporary licenses issued by the regulatory authority are preferred by entrepreneurs and non-profit organizations. In addition, experts said that the cannabis market in New York State will face fierce competition from the black market, with various regulatory barriers. The cannabis market in New York State may not have the high growth as expected.
4. Inflation shock will gradually fade
Inflation affects every industry, and its impact on cannabis is reflected in consumption patterns and prices. The consumer's wallet has shrunk, and the consumption expenditure, at least the optional consumption of marijuana, will naturally come down. According to the analysis of financial experts, the change of consumption mode affects the fundamental adjustment in the hemp investment logic, but this change is temporary rather than the new normal. The manager of Purpose Marijuana Opportunities Fund (NEO: MJJ) said that cannabis consumption is expected to rebound in 2024. However, cannabis is still an emerging frontier market, which will be very difficult in the next 12 months.
5. In Canada, survival is victory
The outlook for the Canadian cannabis market remains challenging, with various market restrictions inhibiting investor interest. In the future, the Canadian cannabis industry will be defined by the surviving companies, and the market share of the selected companies will also expand. Experts said that the Canadian cannabis market still needs to slim down, further eliminate excess capacity and retail distribution points, and companies like Village Farms International Inc (TSX: VFF) (NASDAQ: VFF) that master agricultural skills will be more secure. Cannabis operators in Canada should focus on local companies with overseas market expansion opportunities, especially in Europe.
6. Legalization of cannabis in Europe
The potential of the European cannabis market has been a hot topic among cannabis investors. Germany is a wind vane in the process of legalizing cannabis in Europe. It is expected that the sale of cannabis for adults will be approved in 2023, and the revision of relevant laws and regulations on cannabis is being rapidly promoted. Karl Lauterbach, the German Health Minister, said that his country did not want to copy the more open cannabis regulatory model of the Netherlands, but wanted to control the entire cannabis market. It is encouraging that some European countries are also paying attention to Germany and have announced their plans to legalize cannabis. At present, there are only the United States and Canada in the cannabis market, and the legalization of cannabis in Europe will improve the diversification of the cannabis market.

Looking for a Gluten Free chinese restaurant around Hialeah, Florida?
You're in luck, because we've got what you're looking for.
A few restaurants have gluten-free options even though it is not listed on the apps or in search engines.
If you see a restaurant that you want to go to, reach out to them and ask if they have any GF options!
When you find a place with gluten-free, ask the staff where else in town they recommend!
Local Options
(note: sometimes, we are unable to get listings – apologies if none appeared)
Look For Gluten Free chinese restaurant In A Smartphone App
If you have a smartphone, then try the Find Me Gluten Free app. The app is useful for identifying user-contributed gluten free places! Check for it in the app store.
A problem with this app is that some reviewers sort of bash restaurants for reasons like they didn't like the meal or long wait time when it is kind of irrelevant to the gluten-free situation…so know that before you use the app.
No Options? Here's What To Do
Some places have more gluten free options than others. When are unable to find any suitable restaurant choices, here is what to do.
Hialeah has grocers and gas stations which will help you out. Here you can find staples like protein bars, snacks, popcorn, cheese, and lots of other options. We offer a free book with over 1,000 gluten-free foods on this website. Look for it – it's free!
Have A Plan
Being spontaneous and gluten free is hard!
Don't let yourself get in situations where you are starving but unsure where to eat!
That almost always leads to bad decisions!
These are some of recommendations:
- Stash a few gluten free protein bars in your bag just in case.
- Spend time to investigate options. Come up with a few Gluten Free chinese restaurant options.
- If this is your first time to a Gluten Free chinese restaurant in Hialeah , choose foods that are likely GF – meats, salads, fruits and that kind of thing. Now may not be a good time to test gluten-free pasta or cake – if you've never been there !
- Lastly, eat out at off-peak times. Have dinner early or try for a late lunch. Get there when you will easily have the undivided attention of the wait person and the cooks aren't slammed.
Ask About Gluten Free chinese restaurant On Social Platforms
Like Facebook or not, there are several huge gluten free groups on it. The groups are free to join. Once inside the group, you can ask for advice on Gluten Free chinese restaurant options in Hialeah.

We're pretty familiar with English slang, like "legit," "lit," "RIP," etc. We even know Tagalog slang words like "petiks," "charot," "waley," and "chibog." But are you familiar with Chinese slang?
I started looking into this, thinking I'd find things like "ke-po," "hao-xiao," "tao-ke" and other words we hear often, but I came across a very interesting genre of Chinese slang where they use numbers to replace words. Remember when 143 was used to say "I love you"? Well, the Chinese just took it to a whole another level.
Here are some Chinese slang to get you started:
520 (wuerling) – It means "I love you" because I guess it sounds like "wo ai ni"? Have you told your parents 520 today?
666 (liuliuliu) – I initially thought it would have something to do with demons, but no. It means "awesome" or "excellent." I guess demons can be 666, but I don't know about excellent.
748 (qisiba) – See, now this means "go to hell." The demons can 748.
484 (sibasi) – "shi bu shi" translates to "yes or no." Tell me, are you enjoying these so far? 484?
233 (ersansan) – Laugh out loud. I am 233-ing over how I do not understand this one.
995 (jiujiuwu) – Please someone 995, my brain was not made for number slang. If you didn't get it, 995 means "help me" like jiu jiu wo.
88 (baba) – This is the last one. Wanna take a guess? It means "bye bye"! So the Chinese version of the boy band N*Sync's hit song was 888. Get it? No? Okay. 88!
Now that you know some Chinese slang, how about having your own secret language on social media? Check out this article.

Armond White's N.Y. Press review of Becket is more than a little similar to an appraisal I wrote last year….odd. Easily the most single-minded Manhattan- maverick critic (at times almost peculiarly so), White is an absolute must-read because of his occasional grand-slams — reviews that pinpoint not only the artistic dimension but the agenda of certain films, like when he called Billy Elliott "a balletomane chickenhawk fantasy."
"Ostensibly the story of King Henry II appointing his confident Thomas a' Becket to be Archbishop of Canterbury and then reneging on his bequest — a decision that historically split England's religious affiliation — Becket is mostly fascinating as a love story between two men," he writes. "Jean Anoulih's stage play is strengthened by the conflict of worldly affection and spiritual devotion when Becket's born-again allegiance to God takes precedent over his fealty to Henry. This movie version is deeper than anything the makers of Brokeback Mountain could ever conceive — or admit to.
"Reseeing Becket in light of the recent so-called breakthrough for gay film subjects makes one realize how advanced mainstream filmmaking used to be. Peter O'Toole's Henry and Richard Burton's Becket profess their regard for each other with bold openness and extravagant anguish. Precisely because this affection remains Becket's subtext, it is never treated as a self-congratulatory end in itself. O'Toole and Burton are artistically free to fully vent their characters' emotions."
Director Peter Glenville "subtly encodes this historical epic with sexual intimations: Henry and Becket's tandem escapades, phallic candles, bareback horseriding, etc. But he takes a dry approach to the complications of lost-love and how these legendary leaders deprived themselves — Becket through an excess of religious fervor, opposing the King's edict out of personal arrogance; Henry through unchecked emotionalism and personal vengeance.
"This psychological depth gives Becket an edge over the other '60s dramas about the Plantagenet rulers (A Man for All Seasons, The Lion in Winter, Anne of the Thousand Days) and puts it close to the sophistication of Lawrence of Arabia and, yes, My Own Private Idaho."

Values-Based Social Intervention
New employees have the unique opportunity to get to know the most important cornerstones of the work of SOS Children's Villages International and their employees in three days.
After a historical search for clues and the examination of the mission and goals of the SOS Children's Villages work, a playful, varied approach to the manifold functions in the worldwide SOS Children's Villages network follows. For example, the following questions are covered: What does the job in an SOS Children's Village program look like? What is the life of children living in a SOS Children's Village program like? How does SOS Children's Villages respond to the needs of children who did not have a loving home? What does international cooperation look like? Who works together with whom, so that these answers become possible? Who actually runs SOS Children's Villages?
Relationships made during the introductory days can facilitate future collaboration. Once you know the face to a name, initiating contact is much easier. In addition, these days are designed to bring together people with the same concerns and exchange best practices, knowledge and experiences.
The Introduction Days take place up to three times a year. Employees of SOS Children's Villages can find the exact dates on the Intranet (linked below).

EU and U.S. officials meet to talk trade
The trade talks will be held in Washington on Wednesday. Last year, a dispute between the two parties erupted over cars — the Trump administration demanded that the Europeans cut their 10 percent import tariff on American vehicles. In July, a trans-Atlantic truce was reached. But the dispute has since widened beyond cars, and that could bring big problems.

This was our first visit to this music festival but it most certainly won't be the last. We bought tickets for the evening concert on 7th July 2016. We spent the afternoon at the festival and found it a great experience. Every kind of food and drink you could possibly want, and so much going on, music, dance, craft stalls and so much more. Everyone was so friendly and the whole thing was so well organised, the atmosphere was wonderful. My husband and I still can't believe that we were lucky enough to be at the evening concert, which was the main reason for going to the festival. We saw Bryn Tervel and Joseph Calejah, WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!! They were absolutely magnificent and we still can't believe we were so fortunate to see and hear them both, two of the best in the world. If we had wanted to see either of them at any other venue, it would have cost six times as much. I was very moved by the audience rendering of the Welsh national anthem too, spine tingling!! We are still pinching ourselves to think we were actually there. Our thanks to the festival organisers and to Bryn and Joseph for an experience, we will never forget.
Spine tingling experience

Carpenter Bees of Jurong Lake Gardens
Carpenter bees from the genus Xylocopa are large and often hairy bees that are usually dark coloured and about 20-30 mm in length.
Behaviour and Ecology
True to their name, they create burrows in solid wood, usually dead tree trunks and branches or timber used for construction. These burrows branch out into many parallel passageways. Brood cells in their nest are filled with pollen and deposited with a single egg each. Unlike honey bees, which live in colonies with a single egg-laying female (the queen), Carpenter Bees are considered solitary bees which live singly or in small groups. All females are able to reproduce.
In addition to being large, they also buzz loudly while foraging for nectar and pollen from many trees and shrubs. Despite this, they are peaceful giants that are relatively docile and harmless. They carry out buzz pollination, where they grab onto flowers and buzz at a specific frequency, releasing pollen in the process. They function as pollinators of many local plants such as Sendudok (Melastoma malabathricum) and Simpoh Air (Dillenia suffruticosa).
About 13 species of carpenter bees have been recorded in Singapore. Here are some common species found in Jurong Lake Gardens.

Scientific name: | Xylocopa latipes |
Common name: | Broad-footed Carpenter Bee |
Family: | Apidae |
35 mm |
What does it look like?
The all-black Broad-footed Carpenter Bee is the largest bee in Singapore, and also one of the largest in the world. It is shiny and fully black with metallic blue green or purple wings in sunlight. It has a distinctive, low-pitched buzzing that can be heard while foraging. Males have unusual front legs that are lighter in colour and covered in smooth, brush-like hairs.

Female. Photo credit: John X. Q. Lee |
Scientific name: | Xylocopa aestuans |
Common name: | White-cheeked Carpenter Bee |
Family: | Apidae |
20 mm |
What does it look like?
The female is mainly black with a thorax covered with deep yellow hairs except for a small black patch in the centre. The male, in contrast, is covered with fine yellow hairs, making it look fully dark yellow. They are named after a small patch of fine white hairs found behind their eyes in both sexes.
Females are often mistaken for the Yellow-and-black Carpenter Bee (X. flavonigrescens), though one way to tell them apart is to look at the luminous colours, known as iridescence, of their wings. Female White-cheeked Carpenter Bees have a purplish brown iridescence on their wings as compared to the bluish-green iridescence of the Yellow-and-black Carpenter Bee.

(Bloomberg)—Salaries for tech workers in San Francisco and New York have declined for the first time in about five years, a result of the pandemic-induced push for remote work that's driving talent to cheaper U.S. cities.
Meanwhile in Chicago, tech salaries are on the rise. Hired's data shows salaries in the Windy City rose 3.5% to an average of $133,000, which is most comparable to Austin, Atlanta and the Dallas-Forth Worth metro area. The report shows that a salary of about $165,000 in San Francisco would give a person the same spending power as $190,000 in Chicago when factoring in rent, groceries and local taxes.
Tech salaries rising in Chicago aligns with growth the industry is seeing in other areas. Chicago tech startups are raising record amounts of venture capital this year, which allows them to grow and provide more competitive salaries. According to PitchBook data, Chicago-area startups have so far raised $5.5 billion in 2021, the most raised by local companies since the firm started tracking the data.

The Rise of Frontex in the EU's New Strategy on Assisted Return
Time to read
Guest post by Erlend Paasche. Erlend is a senior researcher and sociologist who is specialized in migration studies. He works at the Norwegian Institute for Social Research, where he coordinates the project Deporting Foreigners: Contested Norms in International Practice (2021-2024). Disclosure: Erlend gave input to the European Commission on the Strategy discussed in this post.
There is an abundance of criminological studies of deportation but few have explored the so-called 'Assisted Voluntary Return programmes' (AVRs). Yet both deportation and AVR are central to European immigration law enforcement. AVRs typically provide assistance with acquiring travel documents and organize return flights free of charge. Funded by host states and implemented by service-providers such as the International Organization for Migration or non-governmental organisations, they also offer cash grants upon return, or some form of in-kind reintegration support, or a combination thereof.
Sociologists have analysed AVR as 'soft deportation', indicating the absence of brute force but also acknowledging the inherently coercive nature of return for those ordered to leave, and the hostile environment in which it occurs. Why, then, are criminologists not more interested?
Perhaps the study of deportation, being 'lived' as punishment by deportees but not legally defined as such by states, is quietly considered audacious enough, stretching the discipline of criminology beyond its home turf of criminal justice? More provocatively, could it be that the criminological gaze has been skillfully diverted by that strategically crafted misnomer, 'voluntary'?
A recent policy development suggests that criminologists may need to reconsider their priorities. In April 2021 the European Commission launched the first-ever Strategy on Assisted Voluntary Return. It presents a mixture of old and new elements, that need to be carefully unpacked.
The Strategy reaffirms the EU's commitment to what it habitually refers to as a 'more effective, humane and orderly return', while acknowledging that uptake remains far below desirable levels.
Commissioner for Home Affairs, Ylva Johansson, sums up the rhetoric in her presentation of the Strategy.
Only about a third of people with no right to stay in the EU return to their country of origin and of those who do, fewer than 30 per cent do so voluntarily. Voluntary returns are always the better option: they put the individual at the core, they are more effective and less costly. Our first ever strategy on voluntary return and reintegration will help returnees from both the EU and third countries to seize opportunities in their home country, contribute to the development of the community and build trust in our migration system to make it more effective.
There is plenty of room for critical analysis here. First, the precise number of 30 per cent is curious given that EU+ member states do not currently disaggregate return into 'forced' or 'voluntary' in their statistical reports, so it is hard to understand how Eurostat data could substantiate that figure. Second, significant political and financial investments over the last decade appear to have had little effect. Third, and relatedly, returnees may not want to seize those 'opportunities' if they are alienated from their 'home country'. Finally, for countries of origin, return is less of an 'opportunity' and more of a loss. Remittances from citizens abroad often represent a major source of national revenue.
The new Strategy is short on details. There are brief references to the proposed EU Migration Pact, but they lack in detail and depth. There is much ado about return counselling, but this avoids macrostructural conditions in the origin state which factor heavily in migrants' return decision-making. Transnational communication channels between a migrant ordered to return and service-providers in the country of origin with insights into post-return realities and expectation management, is barely alluded to in one, short sentence.
There are elements in the Strategy that arguably represent progress in the field. Perhaps most importantly, the strategy marks a shift in tone, from the law and order approach of the recast Returns Directive, launched in 2018 and still under negotiation, which in effect proposed restricting access to assisted return. So, too, there is open acknowledgement of the lack of an evidence base and the need for more research. Likewise, there is reference to the need for better monitoring of post-return service delivery and the need for common quality standards to ensure that returnees swiftly and effectively access the assistance they are promised in Europe pre-departure.
The new Strategy casts irregular migrants as people who can be motivated and convinced ('counselled') to choose to return, while depicting fragmented state policies as the problem. It calls for a more streamlined approach to address gaps between national return procedures, the absence of harmonized data, and variation in levels and types of support across member states, all of which are said to contribute to the low uptake in assisted return programmes.
Surprisingly, given the emphasis on counseling and choice, the Strategy brings in the EU border agency Frontex as a key player in the field of assisted return, asserting that, 'the role of Frontex as the operational arm of the common EU system of returns is key to improving the overall effectiveness of the system (…).' Frontex is called upon to support an increasing number of voluntary return operations and reinforce its capacity to provide operational assistance to Member States in all phases of the voluntary return and reintegration process, including pre-return counselling (e.g. outreach campaigns to migrants), post-arrival support and monitoring the effectiveness of reintegration assistance.
Under the terms of the new Strategy, Frontex will take over some of the activities of the European Return and Reintegration Network (ERRIN), a hybrid network of national immigration authorities and NGOs that has been jointly contracting reintegration service-providers in origin states, overseeing the return of nearly 25,000 migrants, and offering a counterweight to the technocratic expertise of the hegemonic International Organization for Migration. Yet taking over some of ERRIN's activities is just the tip of the iceberg. Supposedly, Frontex will
- Develop, jointly with the International Centre for Migration Policy Development (ICMPD), a common curriculum for return counsellors;
- Develop joint reintegration services;
- Ensure consistency in the content and quality of services;
- Develop a standing corps of return experts providing specialized support; and
- Bring together different strands of the EU return policy under the leadership of the Frontex Return Coordinator and a High-Level Network for Return, with national experts.
The Strategy contains no reflection on the obvious question that now arises. How can a law enforcement agency with expertise from border control and forced return truly be best positioned to take the lead on the EU's delicate operation of assisted return?
The timing is more than a little off, of course, since the political ascendancy of Frontex has been dogged by serious controversies in recent months including alleged complicity in push-back operations whereby would-be asylum seekers were returned from EU borders. Frontex' own response to these controversies, have raised uncomfortable questions about its willingness and capacity to hold itself accountable.
Poor timing aside, by appointing Frontex as the leader of assisted return the EU's new strategy the European Commission adds a new layer of complexity to the task of presenting return programmes as benign, humanitarian interventions rather than as immigration control.
It seems more than likely that the rise of Frontex in the field of AVR will make 'voluntary' return more coercive and less regulated by rights. For instance, in the proposed EU Migration Pact, an expedited 'border procedure' denotes the pre-screening and detention of migrants near the Schengen border, and has been described by critics as 'a second-rate asylum procedure' with reduced procedural guarantees. The Strategy argues that an 'effective' border procedure will 'facilitate and encourage voluntary returns since people will be available and more willing to cooperate with the authorities'. In this Orwellian twist, force and volition are truly one.
In short, the gently worded Strategy further blurs the line between assisted and forced return as soft and hard deportation. In doing so, it further necessitates criminological scrutiny and sensitivity to the language and actions of complicated punitive power, and on the diverse effects of this power on the EU, on host and origin states, and, not least, on 'AVR beneficiaries'.
If there ever was a time for criminologists to turn their gaze towards assisted return, now is the time.

The windlass mechanism is an integral part of normal foot mechanics and gets the name from the similarity to that of the windlass in sailing where it describes the pulley system used to raise and lower sails. In the foot the action is created by the plantar fascia, the band of strong, thick connective tissue that spans the base of the foot from the calcaneus to the toes, as it stretches around the metatarsal heads when the foot comes into dorsi flexion during the propulsive phase of the gait cycle.

Hi to everyone,
I am using an IRIS quadrotor and I noticed already one thing that I don't like too much but I think there should be an explanation for that but I would like to know if someone of you knows more.
Why is it not possible to have a switch to disconnect the battery?
My question is driven by the impression that when I connect the battery the quadrotors does (after about 4 seconds) the calibration of the sensors and especially of the accelerometers. If it does that while the quadrotor is still inclined then the IRIS will see as horizontal direction a wrong one. The result will be that at beginning when it will fly , it will do pitching immediately in a certain direction which is relative to the inclination of the IRIS while calibrating.
For this reason I would like to know if there is a way to disconnect the battery with a switch, in this way I could insert the battery and only when the quadrotor is on a flat surface connect it to the drone.
Thanks for your help.

Sustaining the brethren is loving God.
Part of our human nature is the desire to know the reason for everything we experience in life. Why do birds fly? Why do I have to finish school? Why should I pay tithes? Why, why, why… Wanting to understand life is not necessarily a bad thing. In contrary, we are encouraged to seek knowledge and wisdom. But we have to remember that this life is not just about logic or reasoning alone. One of our goals in life is to develop our faith.
One way that we increase our faith is by following the words of our prophet. The Lord continually reveals His will to the prophet, but does not necessarily reveals the reasons behind it. We need to exercise our faith believing that the Lord knows everything from the beginning to the end. When we have a testimony that the prophet receives revelations from the Lord, we have the confidence to follow his counsel even when we do not understand everything at the moment.
The Lord knows what is best for us. He wants us to be happy and that's why He continuously reveals His will to the prophet and His apostles. When we have the faith to listen and obey, we will be blessed.

The IRFS states that hindering journalists' professional activities is the violation of the right to obtain and distribute information. It also contradicts Article 50 (freedom of information) of the Constitution of the Azerbaijan Republic, Article 10 (freedom of expression) of European Convention on Human Rights, and Article 1 of the Law of the Azerbaijan Republic on Freedom of Information (Everyone is free to look for, acquire, transfer, prepare and distribute information). In addition, hindering journalists' professional activities creates criminal responsibility under Article 163 (impeding journalists in their legal professional activities). The IRFS notes that the assailants must be brought into liability in line with laws, as inflicting injury using physical assault and impeding journalists in their professional activities are regarded criminal actions.
The IRFS calls on the Azerbaijani government and law-enforcement agencies to respect local and international laws, create favorable conditions for journalistic activities and punish the persons, who attacked journalists and broke their equipments.

8 reviews for TrustBasket Enriched Organic Earth Magic Potting Soil (5 Kg) | Garden Soil | Potting Mix Soil Fertilizer for Plants
Purchased potting soil for my plants from trust basket and I am fully satisfied with the soil that came in my home. The delivery by Amazon was good.
Soil is well formed and drains the water through it quite well. Also it holds the water content so the soil remains wet and you don't have to water your plants unless it is a sunny day or high temperature is maintained. Sometimes it was observed that after watering the plants, the texture of the soil get ruined but not with this one.
The fertility of this soil is good, seeds gets easily germinated. You don't have to feed your plants with fertilizer for 1 month after potting this soil because it is well formed soil and have fertilizer already added in it with other necessary contents.
Conclusion: although the price is high because locally you can purchase more soil at the same price rate but this potting soil from trustbasket have all the necessary nutrients which are needed by your plants in order to grow and develop themselves so the price gets justified. You can completly go for it and if you are comfortable on adding nutrients separately then you can purchase soil locally at low cost.

2 months update: Plant growth was okay. Some plants (don't know their names) died off but it could be my mistake also because I'm new to planted tanks. Mosses, Hornwort, Vallisneria and Amazon swords are growing well. Anubias and floating plants are also healthy.

The soil is quite rich, light and perfect to grow seeds. I grew cherry tomatoes in this soil and all the seeds germinated and are growing well. The seeds were of good quality too but soil health matters a lot too. It has cocopeat, no smell, feels genuine and moreover my plants like it. Overall love it.

Soil is rich in organic matter no doubt and TrustBasket has added a little bit of perlite to it. This is a good mix but it hold too much moisture. It's maybe good for seed germination but not good for your regular adult plants. They might rot.
When I got it I did the test with compacting it in my fist with some water and the soil clumped together. This was not a good sign. However, I trusted the reviews on Amazon and I repotted peace lilly, palm and a small rose plant. Within a few days I could see the plants deteriorating. I waited for 3 weeks because sometimes these things can resolve themselves. After over a month most of the peace lilly leaves had started to yellow, the rose bush had deteriorated and was at death's door.
Yesterday we have repotted again. We used the same soil but we mixed in 5% coarse sand, 5% perlite and 40% coco peat. Now I wait for 2 weeks to see if there is any new growth.

Warmer weather is headed our way, and that means outdoor activities will be feasible once again! Birthdays and graduation parties are common events held outdoors, but block parties are another fun way to come together and celebrate friendship and community. Follow these steps to plan a party of your very own!
- Choose a date for your block party. This isn't just so family and friends can mark their calendars – it's necessary information for paperwork that you will need to fill out.
- For block parties hosted in Aberdeen, a request for street use form will be required. This form can be picked up at the Finance Office located in City Hall. On the form you will need to indicate the date the block party will take place, the location, and if barricades or police monitoring will be needed. After the form is completed, return it to the office.
- All block party requests will be placed on the agenda for a City Council meeting. These meetings happen on the first, third, and fourth Monday each month at 5:30 PM at the City Hall. You will get the approval for your block party at one of these meetings.
- Rome wasn't built in a day, and the greatest block parties weren't planned by one person. See if others in your neighborhood will help volunteer. Everything will be more manageable (and less stressful!) if you divide and conquer. A group of you can handle the logistical side of things, another can plan out food and activities, and one more can manage promoting and cleanup, for example. Find a plan that works for you and stick with it!
- Figure out your food options. Do you want a potluck style affair? Do you want to hire catering? Consider how many people will be attending. You can be as simple or as fancy as you would like; it's your party, after all!
- Plan out some activities that your guests will enjoy. A family-friendly block party might include lawn games, face painting, and street games. Select some songs for a party playlist that will get your guests up and moving. The list goes on, so come up with an itinerary that will suit your party's needs.
- Be sure to have a dedicated set up crew to get the block ready before the party starts. Arranging barricades and setting up food tables and games should all be done before the guests arrive.
- Word of mouth is effective advertising, but consider other options to spread the word about your party. Put up eye-catching posters around the neighborhood or create a Facebook event with all the details guests will need.
- Clean up! Admittedly, it's the worst part of the party, but it's necessary that you make sure things are just like – or better than – the way you found them.
- Start planning for next year. See what people liked and find out what you can do better. Block parties are a great way for a community to come together and who knows… you might just create a new Aberdeen tradition.

Stirring study —
JAMA study highlights quality-control issues common with dietary supplements.
Beth Mole
– Apr 25, 2023 10:33 pm UTC
An eye-opening analysis of common over-the-counter sleep aids finds they contain wildly variable amounts of melatonin, with some packing up to 347 percent of the amount on the label.
The study, published Tuesday in JAMA, found that 22 of 25 melatonin gummy products analyzed—88 percent—were inaccurately labeled. That is, they contained over 10 percent more or less melatonin than what was listed on the packaging. Together, the dietary supplement products contained a range of melatonin that spanned 1.3 mg to 13.1 mg per serving. And those actual quantities represented a range of 74 percent to 347 percent of what they were supposed to contain based on their labeling.
The finding highlights a larger concern over the quality, safety, and effectiveness of dietary supplements, which are not vetted or approved by the Food and Drug Administration like over-the-counter medicines, such as ibuprofen and allergy medicines. The multi-billion dollar industry has long shrugged off substantial concerns over quality control, safety, lack of effectiveness data, and hyped health claims.
While the consequences of a melatonin overdose are unlikely to be acutely dangerous or life-threatening, the finding is concerning because melatonin can have unpleasant side effects, and it's commonly used for children. Gummy versions of the supplement, the focus of the current study, are particularly likely to be given to children.
Melatonin is a hormone produced by the brain in response to darkness, and supplement makers have sold it as a potential sleep aid and a relaxant. Although there are some studies indicating that melatonin supplements are better than a placebo at helping children sleep, the data is scant, and there is a lot of uncertainty about its use. Unknowns include the ideal dose and its timing, as well as long-term effects and whether it could alter hormonal development in children and young adults.
Rude awakening
Side effects and adverse events are also not well-documented. But in children, experts say melatonin risks include excessive drowsiness and increased bedwetting, plus many things that could disrupt sleep, such as headaches, nausea, nightmares, dizziness, and mood changes.
"Administration of as little as 0.1 mg to 0.3 mg of melatonin to young adults can increase plasma concentrations into the normal nighttime range," the authors of the JAMA study—led by Pieter Cohen, a supplement safety expert at Cambridge Health Alliance—wrote. Yet, the quantities in the gummies were 40 to 130 times higher than those amounts.
Cohen and colleagues note that an estimated 1.3 percent of US children took melatonin before the pandemic, and that number likely rose amid the stressful health emergency. Between 2012 and 2021, calls to poison control centers for children taking melatonin rose 530 percent, according to data published in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. Those calls were associated with 27,795 emergency department and clinic visits, 4,097 hospitalizations, 287 intensive care unit admissions, and two deaths.
The new JAMA study has limitations; it only looked at gummy products and didn't do batch-to-batch analysis. But, a study in 2017 by Canadian researchers looking at 31 melatonin supplements in chewable tablet, capsule, and liquid forms, found similarly wild variability in products. Melatonin content varied from 83 percent to 478 percent of what was written on labels, and batch-to-batch content varied as much as 465 percent. Moreover, 26 percent of the products also contained undisclosed amounts of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that can be harmful even in low amounts.
Last year, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine issued a health advisory over the use of melatonin, particularly in children. Parents are advised to talk with pediatricians before using the hormone, which the American Academy of Pediatrics also recommends.

My friend Elisa made an astute observation last week.
"You always know a Chicago mother because we can talk about schools for hours," she said.
And oh, how true that is.
I toured my first elementary school for Kai when he was just eighteen months old.
"And do you have a child applying for kindergarten next year?" the principal asked me.
"No, he's a baby," I replied.
The principal looked confused.
"I'm just trying to understand the lay of the land," I said.
A woman next to me on the tour piped up. "My kid's only two," she said.
I heard a couple whisper to each other behind me. I turned around, and when I recognized them, I waved and smiled. Their oldest child was in Kai's soccer class.
Chicago makes things both awesome and horrible by essentially letting you apply to any public school in the city. You can choose from schools that specialize in languages, for example. The one I toured that time when Kai was a baby is across the street from my house. The kids there learn Mandarin or Hindi or Spanish. You can choose a school that gives your kid art enrichment, science and math academies, Montessori. Your kid can also test into gifted programs.
Mostly, all this choice is overwhelming as hell. My friends who absconded to the suburbs when their kids were toddlers just go to their local school. That's why they moved out there in the first place—bright, modern school buildings with plenty of resources.
Scott and I had no intention of leaving the city, or, as a result of that decision, of sending Kai to public school. We'd heard and imagined too many bad things—the 50% dropout rate, the shitty test scores. The gangs. Kai's OT, Emily, has a friend who graduated from our local high school. He says that it wasn't so bad as long as you had a group of powerful friends to protect you. Lovely. Throw in a stainless steel toilet and you know what you have? Prison.
I started to research the private schools. The Catholic ones are reasonably priced, but I didn't even consider them because a.) we are Catholic in the same way that a diamond ring is chocolate pudding and 2.) you know what the other reason is. That left only a handful of schools to choose from. They're great schools, to be sure, but one of them charged $25,000 a year for something called Junior Kindergarten.
Just to give you some idea, with that money you could buy one year of tuition, or 6,250 Big Macs, or one VW Beetle, or 347 pairs of Lululemon yoga pants, or, not to be all high-horsey about it, 75,000 meals for hungry families right here in Chicago. And you have to do it every year. And we have two children.
But a funny thing happened. After two private preschools threw up their arms when asked them to work with Kai, the public school down the street welcomed us with open arms.
We found out later that it was because they had to, of course. Kai is entitled to an education, and the public school is obligated how to figure out how to give him one. But whatever. The teachers were National Board Certified. They were the first ones who got Kai to do anything constructive in a classroom setting. Sure, it was to serve himself a snack of Goldfish crackers. But believe me, it was such a big deal, that when I saw it for myself, I actually started to cry.
It was my mother who suggested Montessori for Kai. His biggest problem at that age, academically speaking, was being completely unable to sit in group time. Montessori, she reasoned, was less likely to be that structured.
In Montessori, no one sits at a desk. Teachers give "presentations" to kids one-on-one. Kids can learn at their own pace under the philosophy "follow the child." They still learn reading and math and science, of course, but the material is presented in a different way. Private Montessori schools don't even test their kids.
There are three public Montessoris in Chicago, and a big private one right near my house, and we applied to each of them.
Chicago Public Schools is closing 53 elementary schools this year, mostly in black and Latino neighborhoods. In fact, black students, who represent 40% of Chicago Public School kids, make up 80% of the affected population. The children who attend those schools will be "welcomed" into new schools, schools with rival gang affiliations, schools with the same bad test scores as the schools that will be closing, and in some cases, worse.
My friend who teaches at a CPS school will be welcoming 100 new students to her school, bringing her class size to 38 from 30. Oh, and by the way, they have no speech pathologist.
CPS is promising more resources for what they're calling the "welcoming" schools—iPads and social workers and paint and books. Isn't that lovely, you guys? And every student will ride a unicorn to school, over rainbows that help them skirt the rival gang territory.
It's going to be awesome. Except that it's not.
So remember how I told you that you could apply to any school in Chicago? Well, I didn't say that you had a chance of getting in.
The "good" schools, high-performing schools in affluent neighborhoods get flooded with applications. At Kai's school, I was told that the chances were slim to none, and when Kai was offered a seat I think I fainted dead away.
Getting into Kai's public Montessori elementary school was the one piece of luck handed to me with respect to Kai, the one freebie. Here you go, Megan, the Universe said. I know we've given you a hard time lately. Kai has had the same teacher for three years. She is perhaps the one person on this earth whose love for my son rivals my own.
That year we applied at Kai's school, there were 36 open seats, and 1500 families applied for them.
This year, 2,764 applied, but there were fewer seats available.
That's because one of them was already reserved for Ryan.
One of Ryan's future classmates, one of those lucky few, goes to her daycare. I met his mother the other day when the daycare director introduced us.
The director had herself applied to our school.
"We are number 851 on the waitlist," she said ruefully. "None of our magnet applications came through."
"Oh, man," I said. "That sucks. What about your local school?"
She shook her head.
"It's closing," she said.
I didn't know what to say to that.
"Congratulations to you, though," she said brightly.
I thanked her, but I felt guilty, too, like I'd had more than my share of good fortune
Her family has resources, though, and no doubt her son will end up going to a fine school.
I hope that the same may be said of the 30,000 children who were displaced this year. Unicorns and rainbows are in short supply at CPS.
Kai and his amazing paraprofessional.

Accent Prime™
During our early years, we are able to benefit from a plentiful supply of collagen and elastin that make our complexion smooth, firm, and resilient. As we age, this foundational storage of nutrients can decrease, causing your skin to lose volume and radiance. This then results in wrinkling, fine lines, and droopy, loose skin, in addition to contributing to the formation of cellulite. If you want to elevate the firmness and overall appearance of your skin with a noninvasive solution, then you might consider Accent Prime treatments for non-surgical body contouring and radiofrequency (RF) Skin Tightening at Fine Arts Skin & Laser Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.
With the application of the Accent Prime technology, these noninvasive treatments help to stimulate the development of fibers and proteins so you can develop tighter, firmer skin and reduce unwanted fat.

For Skin Tightening Dover aesthetic expert, Dr. David M. Hartman, and his staff are proud to offer Accent Prime for people who would like to rejuvenate and firm their skin with lasting, noninvasive alternatives.
Even minor skin issues like fine lines can add up over time to make you appear much older. Now noninvasive solutions like Skin Tightening with Accent Prime can help you achieve smoother, firmer skin and even reduce the unsightly lumpiness and dimpling of cellulite without cosmetic surgery. Patients choose this cutting-edge technology because it doesn't require any downtime, is affordable, and offers impressive results. It can also treat a wide range of body areas that cannot be reached through other methods like diet and exercise. Our Dover and New Philadelphia Skin Tightening patients often report that their skin feels softer and smoother after a short period.
How It Works
By combining ultrasound and radio wave technologies, Accent Prime Skin Tightening stimulates collagen fibers to create a slimmer, tighter figure. This ultrasound fat reduction technique can be performed on various areas of the body, including the stomach, arms, buttocks, and legs. After a series of quick and effective treatments, you can expect noticeable results of a more contoured figure and a reduction of unwanted fat and cellulite with little to no downtime.

By employing the innovative Accent Prime, non-surgical skin tightening works to encourage the natural production of elastin and collagen, making it possible to achieve tighter, radiant skin. Our team at Fine Arts Skin & Laser Aesthetic Plastic Surgery is proud to provide RF skin tightening for those who would like to recharge and tone their skin or reduce cellulite with long-lasting noninvasive solutions.

Whether you are wanting to achieve a slimmer, tighter figure, or reduce the appearance of unsightly cellulite, an Accent Prime treatment may be ideal for you.

With proper care, your Accent Prime results can be long-lasting. However, significant weight changes or pregnancy after your Accent Prime treatment may impact your outcomes from ultrasound fat reduction and skin tightening methods. Additionally, natural aging will continue, so you will eventually see loose skin develop as you get older. Ask our team about suggestions that may help your results last and your options for touch-up treatments if necessary.
