CES 2013: Game fights childhood obesity
childhood obesity
At this year's International CES in Las Vegas, UnitedHealthCare and Konami joined forces in an effort to reduce childhood obesity through Konami's DanceDanceRevolution Classroom Edition game.
UnitedHealthcare and Konami Digital Entertainment announced at the 2013 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) a joint effort to reduce childhood obesity through Konami's new DanceDanceRevolution (DDR) Classroom Edition, the latest iteration of the wildly popular dance game that has shown to encourage physical activity among adults and children.
DDR Classroom Edition is an interactive video game, also known as an "exergame,"" that combines physical activity with energetic music and visuals. The game and associated hardware technology, which was developed by Performance Designed Products, enables up to 48 students to participate simultaneously, using wireless mat controllers that feature a smart card reader that tracks each student's individual progress. While students move to the beat, teachers receive vital information about their students' health including, steps, body mass index (BMI) and caloric burn rate.
Konami and UnitedHealthcare launched the game at three schools located in Longwood, Fla.: Gainesville, Ga.: and Fresno, Texas. The participating schools, with assistance from KONAMI and UnitedHealthcare, will use the game to track its impact on students' health, well-being and exercise habits.
The program builds on UnitedHealthcare's deep expertise in developing practical solutions to control childhood obesity, including collaborations with school systems nationwide. This latest collaboration will also be incorporated into 'Activate for Kids, a school wellness initiative operated by UnitedHealthcare and United Health Foundation in partnership with school systems throughout Florida, Georgia and Texas.
""DanceDanceRevolution introduced a generation of young people to an innovative and fun approach to physical activity,"" said Clara Baum, senior director of strategic marketing and partnerships, Konami. ""With the recent launch of our Classroom Edition and Konami's collaboration with UnitedHealthcare, we see the healthy lifestyle benefits of expanding the active video games or 'exergaming' platform and making this fun, physical activity system available to as many people as possible.""
Studies indicate ""exergaming,"" which refers to video games such as DDR Classroom Edition that are also a form of exercise, have the potential to reduce the growing obesity epidemic among children and adults. Recognized by leading researchers, schools, and doctors as an innovative and fun solution to promoting a healthy lifestyle and fighting childhood obesity: DDR Classroom Edition launches with support from key partners, including the American Diabetes Association and Sony Music.
""The DanceDanceRevolution Classroom Edition teaches kids that physical activity can be fun and enjoyable, while fostering the development of healthy attitudes and habits that can last a lifetime,"" said Reed Tuckson, M.D., executive vice president and chief of medical affairs, UnitedHealth Group. ""By developing innovative collaborations that engage young people in improving their health, we are taking an important step toward reducing childhood obesity in our country.""
In addition to showcasing DDR Classroom Edition, UnitedHealthcare's 4,000-square-foot exhibitor booth at CES demonstrates how the health care company's health benefits, services and technologies are helping to simplify the consumer health care experience by making helpful, practical information more accessible and affordable through personal technology devices such as smartphones, video game consoles and television programming.
CES attendees can interact with a wide range of innovative health tools, including:
• myHealthcare Cost Estimator This online and mobile tool gives consumers the transparency they need to understand health care costs and quality for specific physicians and hospitals: enables them to compare costs and quality of alternative treatments: and provides personalized out-of-pocket cost estimates based on current benefits, applicable network discounts and health financing accounts.
• Health4Me This powerful mobile app helps UnitedHealthcare plan participants on the go find in-network doctors, benefit information and claim status.
• Senior Digital Journey By better understanding how individuals experience health care and insurance, UnitedHealthcare is gaining insights in how to enhance its service delivery to fit the behavior, needs and desires of its customers.
• UnitedHealthcare Community Rewards™ This program rewards children with points for healthy habits such as visiting their doctors regularly for checkups or brushing their teeth. Then they are able to redeem the points for valuable rewards such as a camera or a bicycle.
""The health care system is undergoing a substantial transformation, with technology and innovative collaborations such as the one with Konami playing crucial roles in that process,"" said Dr. Tuckson. ""Through the technologies and collaborations being showcased during CES, UnitedHealthcare is taking important steps to enhance the health system and empower people to take charge of their personal health like never before.""

Discover the SROKA equipment designed for the practice of wake foil. You will also find tips for getting started with wake foiling and choosing the equipment that suits you best.
Two wake foil boards for all tastes and all levels with the Surf Foil 4'6 Fastflyer (38L) or the Pocket Foilboard (16L).
Two foil packs for all tastes and all practices with the Pocket Foilboard (16L) or the Surf Foil 4'6 Fastflyer (38L). These packs are accompanied by an S-Foil 1190 or 1350 foil.
Retrouvez le meilleur foil freeride pour carver en wake foil.
Find the best foils to hover endlessly and surf the wave.
Find below all our accessories for your Wake foil equipment: fuselages, masts, adjustment wedges, leashes, screws, transport covers, pumps...
The wake foil is a nautical activity which consists of sliding on the water using a board equipped with a foil and a boat, a jet-ski or even pulled by a person (yes yes it works). The foil creates lift that lifts the board out of the water, providing a smooth and quiet gliding experience.
We also speak of wake foil to express the practice of surf foiling on the wave of a boat. We would have to use the term "wake surf foil" to be exact. On our site, we mainly talk about the practice of wake surf foil. Here is a wake surf foil demonstration in Annecy with the Pocket foilboard and the S -foil 1190 Lift.
To start wake foiling, it is advisable to have some knowledge of wakeboarding. You need to be confident and able to control the direction of the board. Then you can equip your board with a foil specially designed for wake foiling. Favor a flat body of water to start, and agree with the pilot of the boat to have a stable speed, around 10/15 km/h to start. Start by practicing small take-offs: slide slowly on the water and when you reach sufficient speed, push on your legs to lift the board out of the water. Keep your knees slightly bent and keep your eyes fixed on the horizon to maintain your balance. Then familiarize yourself with the sensations of flight and persevere until you have mastered your balance.
To do wake surf foiling, use a shorter rudder bar or get closer to the boat by going up with your arms. Place yourself in the hollow of the wave and find the best position to surf the wave of the boat.
The operation of the wake foil is based on the principle of lift. The foil is made up of a vertical mast and a horizontal wing. As the board glides through the water, the foil creates lift which lifts the board out of the water. As the speed increases, the lift increases and the more the board is lifted. We often compare a foil with an airplane, which flies in the water instead of on the air.
Yes, you can wake foil with most SROKA foils. We design our foils in such a way that they can be used perfectly in 3 different disciplines, so that you do not have to buy a fin for each type of sport. Beware however of kites like the 950 HA or Classics and 1190 HA Speed which will be too fast for small boat waves. All the rest of the range will be compatible with the practice of wakefoil. For more information, do not hesitate to contact us by chat, email or phone at 02 98 32 53 69.
The 80 mast is the most versatile.
The 62cm fuselage is the perfect compromise for maneuverability but if you are new to foiling, take the 68cm fuselage (standard) to navigate in complete stability. The ultra-short 56cm fuselage will appeal to riders who want maximum maneuverability and pumping efficiency. All fuselages here.
You don't need a special wake boat to wakefoil. If you want to do wake surf foiling, a simple semi-rigid that produces waves of 30 to 70 cm will be sufficient, provided you have a suitable foil.
To start wake foiling choose a foil that carries enough for your size. If you want to wake surf foil on the wave of the boat, we recommend our S-foil High Aspect 1190 Lift (templates < 85kg) or 1350 Lift (templates > 85kg). These fins will allow you to slide on the waves of boats to infinity, and will be perfect in other sports such as wing foil, surf foil or dockstart.
A SROKA foil for wake foiling costs between 900 and 1050 euros on average. An adapted board like the Pocket Foilboard 2023 costs €799 excluding promotions.
Like all foiling sports, wake foiling can be dangerous if you don't take precautions. Wear a helmet and an impact vest for maximum protection.
We recommend that you equip yourself with a protective helmet and an impact vest.

Hudson Valley Man Wanted in N.C. Arrested for Stealing Thousands from Local Woman
A Hudson Valley man who's wanted in North Carolina was arrested after police say he stole thousands of dollars from a local woman he was helping.
Gregory P. Myers, 31, of Summitville was charged with 4th-degree grand larceny. He is additionally a Fugitive from Justice out of the State of North Carolina and in violation of his parole.
This arrest stemmed from an investigation into the reported larceny of $2,410.00 from a residence in Summitville. Police say during their investigation it was determined that Myers was assisting a homeowner in Summitville with some work around her home and allegedly removed the money from the residence.
Myers was arraigned at Town of Mamakating Court and remanded to the Sullivan County Jail on no bail. He is scheduled to appear in the Town of Mamakating Town Court on Monday.


text: Financial reimbursement and ownership of medical testing equipment leads to over-prescribing of these tests. These types of conflict of interest extend to ownership of MRI and CT facilities, surgicenters, cardiac imaging equipment, laboratory services and much more. A recent article in JAMA documented that MDs over prescribe two types of cardiac stress imaging tests: nuclear scans and cardiac echograms. We need to be certain the tests we reimburse for are appropriate and not influenced by reimbursement structures if we want to practice the best medicine and affordably.

Capricorn Metals has revealed plans to restart production at the historic Mt Gibson gold project (MGGP) in the Murchison region of Western Australia as part of the company's strategy to grow into an Australian-focused multi-mine gold company.
Capricorn will commence the technical and environmental studies required to underpin a reserve estimate and feasibility study on the project in due course.
The MGGP is located approximately 280 kilometres northeast of Perth and less than 10 kilometres from the Great Northern Highway.
The project produced 868,000 ounces between 1986 and 1999 before it was placed on care and maintenance when the gold price was around $450 per ounce.
According to a company statement, Capricorn has identified very strong exploration potential both between, below and along strike of current resources, with no significant gold focused exploration conducted at the project since the late 1990s.
Capricorn executive chairman Mark Clark said the acquisition of the project has major potential for the company.
"The purchase of the Mt Gibson Gold Project is an outstanding opportunity for Capricorn to grow beyond the now operational Karlawinda project," Clark said.
"The project has a proven gold endowment, is located in the world-class mining jurisdiction of WA and has been subject to very limited modern exploration.
"There is every reason to be optimistic about the opportunity with last gold production over 30 years ago from very shallow open pits when the gold price was around $450 per ounce.
"We look forward to undertaking an extensive drilling programme to infill and significantly extend the shallow drilling depths to allow an update to the current 2.1 million ounce resource."
Capricorn acquired the project and associated tenure encompassing 139sqkm this week from Avenger Projects.
The acquisition increases Capricorn's total resources to 4.2 million ounces including the resources and 1.2 million ounce ore reserve at its operating Karlawinda Gold Mine.
The company poured first gold at its Karlawinda project in Western Australia earlier this month as the company continues to optimise its processes.
The first gold bars weighed 12 kilograms (386 ounces) and were the first of a 12-year mine life at over 110,000 ounces per annum for Karlawinda.

The most recent Global X International Report can be viewed here. The report summarizes market and macroeconomic developments across our International Access suite of ETFs. For a closer look at China Sectors, please see the latest Quarterly China Sector Outlook.
Q4 Summary
International equities generally found some relief in Q4, with the MSCI ACWI Index (MXWD) up 9.76% against a rise of 7.6% for the S&P 500. In Q4, the Federal Reserve (Fed) continued down a path of hawkish rate hikes against a wave of global inflation, with the Fed hiking the federal funds target rate by 50 basis points (bp) to 4.25-4.50% in December 2022. Even as adverse conditions persist into Q1 2023, some signs of moderation emerged towards the end of Q4, such as slowing inflation. Very notably, starting in late November, China defied expectations with the speed at which it opened up and dismantled zero-COVID restrictions, boosting sentiment not only for the Chinese market but also markets that stand to benefit from spillover effects.
Other central banks around the world embarked on rate hikes as pressure from the Fed's moves set in. By the end of Q4, the European Central Bank (ECB) brought its rate up to 2.50%.1 Amid this backdrop, China remains an outlier as it kept its rate steady at 3.65% throughout Q4, in response to unique headwinds blowing on its economy.
Emerging market equities outperformed those of the US for the quarter but fell slightly behind equities for the whole world, as seen by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (MXEF) delivering returns of 9.70% against 7.6% for the S&P and 9.76% for the MXWD. Among Global X's single country and regional funds, six outperformed the MXWD while five underperformed it.
Notable Performers
The Global X MSCI Greece ETF (GREK) was the International Access suite's best performer in Q4 2022, with returns of 27.57%. On the macro side, Greece surprised to the upside in 2022 even as it grappled with geopolitical headwinds in Europe that had the potential to reduce tourist inflows. Additionally, the big four Greek banks (Piraeus, National Bank of Greece, Eurobank, Alpha) continued progress in reducing their non-performing loan (NPL) rates, boosting confidence in the stability of the Financials sector, which GREK has a 30% allocation to.
The suite's second best performer in Q4 2022 was the Global X DAX Germany ETF (DAX), which delivered returns of 25.08%. A key question weighing on investors' minds was Germany's preparedness for a winter without Russian gas. Although Germany's relatively high reliance on Russian gas may make it difficult to dodge economic pressures, markets are now pricing in a milder than expected downturn after a strong effort by the German government to prepare for winter. Over the course of Q4, Germany negotiated with alternative suppliers in the Arabian Gulf, set aside 5% of its annual GDP for support measures and stocked up on gas. 2,3 Germany's success in bolstering its gas reserves mitigated an overall challenging economic outlook, and that likely helped boost sentiment for German equities.
Amid the strong performers in Q4 was Argentina, with the Global X MSCI Argentina ETF (ARGT) returning 19.31% in Q4 2022. A combination of US dollar weakness, China's reopening, and an upcoming presidential election likely drove this rally, and the exuberance to start 2023. Furthermore, Argentina continued to make some progress in its negotiations with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), notably reaching an agreement to possibly receive $6bn from the IMF's Extended Fund Facility Arrangement.4
Despite Vietnam posting the highest GDP growth in Asia in 2022 at 8.02%, troubles in Vietnam's property sector contributed to negative returns for the Global X MSCI Vietnam ETF (VNAM), which was the worst performer in Q4 2022 with losses of 14.32%.5 Liquidity issues, a cash crunch, and government scrutiny all contributed to downward pressure on Vietnamese real estate stocks, which VNAM has a 26.5% allocation towards. As we said in our previous International Outlook, the strong divergence between Vietnam's macro picture and equity performance could possibly present an enticing opportunity in 2023.
Q1 Outlook: Amid Headwinds, Opportunities Exist
2022 proved to be an exceptionally challenging year for both bonds and equities, and although challenges will carry on into 2023, we see signs pointing towards moderation for some of those challenges. Global growth will likely take a hit in early-2023 with expectations for weaker economic data remaining elevated, however the reopening of China could be a bright spot as Chinese policymakers move much faster than expected in dismantling the zero-COVID policy. Supply chain disruptions will likely take some more time to normalize in 2023, and while a surge of COVID in China could exacerbate that in Q1, we see China's reopening as conducive to supply chain normalization through the rest of the year. Meanwhile, Russia's war in Ukraine is dragging on with no clear exit path in Q1, which will likely mean continued geopolitical risks and volatility for energy and food prices.
Inflation in the US showed further signs of cooling down in December with a reading of 6.5%, which resulted in a moderate rate hike of 25bp rather than a 75bp hike at the Feb 1 monetary policy meeting. A reduction of pace in US rate hikes may weaken the dollar in 2023 and mitigate the policy differential that caused many global currencies to tumble in 2022. This could create opportunities for international equities.
An unexpected development in Q4 2022 with immediate implications for 2023 is the sudden reopening of China, which we believe could have positive spillover effects for international markets, albeit after the economy normalizes from the ongoing COVID surge. A more detailed analysis of China's domestic situation can be found in our China Sector Outlook.
In our view, a temporary period of supply chain disruptions from the COVID surge will give way to a robust rebound for China in Q2 2023. The elimination of quarantine requirements for inbound travelers, effective Jan 8, will allow consumers and businesspeople shut out of China back into the country, while increased availability of international flights will boost Chinese consumption in foreign markets, with the caveat that some countries are imposing temporary COVID test requirements on Chinese travelers.
Southeast Asia is one of the regions most well-positioned to benefit from the revival of Chinese tourism. The governments of Southeast Asia are aware of that as they are generally choosing to impose little to no restrictions on Chinese tourists, unlike other Asian neighbors like Japan and South Korea. For the past three years, ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) economies suffered from a gaping hole in tourism revenues caused by a lack of Chinese tourists, the arrivals of which dropped from 32.28mn in 2019 to a mere 233,500 in 2021.6 As the restoration of Chinese tourist inflows likely improves the macro story in Southeast Asia, we continue to believe that Southeast Asia Financials could do well in 2023 on the back of rising interest rates, though investor excitement over that tailwind could moderate to some extent if the Fed does pivot to rate cuts by the end of the year.
In Europe, geopolitical uncertainty remains a key concern and difficult to predict. While an economic downturn of sorts is likely, we see some signs that any potential recession could be softer as the EU beat expectations in its race to secure gas reserves for the winter. After setting a goal of filling 80% of its gas reserves by November 1, the EU not only hit its goal ahead of schedule but achieved a gas reserve level of 95.5% by mid-November.7 This had the effect of boosting morale among investors in Germany, as evidenced by the ZEW Economic Research Institute's investor sentiment index turning positive in January for the first time since Russia's invasion of Ukraine.8 With a Bloomberg survey in January showing markets pricing in a terminal rate of 3.30% for the ECB by May, and then possibly even rate cuts in the following months, a boost for European equities could occur in the latter half of the year.9
In Latin America, Argentine equities have continued to rally, with the MSCI Argentina Index up 15.3% (in USD terms) in the month of January 2023. In particular, we believe markets are looking favorably towards the possibility of new leadership after the October election which could implement government and fiscal reforms to restore the country's credit profile. With Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner declaring she will not run for any office after her current term expires, new leadership seems increasingly likely. Bearing that in mind, markets could react favorably to any additional indicators that change is approaching, such as election polls.

Team Hendrick and driver Alex Bowman won big in Las Vegas over the weekend, and NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick has added even more to his initial donation to Samaritan's Purse for their disaster relief efforts in Ukraine.
He announced last week that he was donating $200,000 to Samaritan's Purse in order to aid the Ukrainian people in their continuing fight against the Russian invasion.
That was all in addition to an extra $2,000 for every lap that one of his four cars leads this past Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
I, and many other NASCAR fans, were all-in on any of the team Hendrick cars for that reason alone.
Alex ended up securing a trophy in Sin City after a wild overtime finish. On the final restart, he battled with fellow team Hendrick driver Kyle Larson side by side for the win before Bowman pulled away coming out of the final turn and took the checkered flag over his teammate.
Alex and Kyle led 16 and 27 laps each, respectively, while William Byron led 8 in the #24 Hendrick car on his way to a fifth place finish. Those 51 laps led added an extra $102,000 to the donation to Samaritan's Purse, bringing the total to $302,000.
And how about those overtime laps adding an extra couple thousand to the six-figure donation?
You couldn't draw it up any better than that:
Alex's win was team Hendrick's second in a row, after Kyle won last week at the Auto Club 400 in California.
Kyle's car also featured a Samaritan's Purse logo to help promote its efforts during the race on Sunday:

Jobless rate rises to 11.6 pct in June
Greece's unemployment rate rose to 11.6 percent in June from 8.6 percent in the same month a year earlier, as austerity policies aimed at slashing the budget deficit led to job cuts, figures from the Hellenic Statistics Authority (ELSTAT) showed yesterday. Unemployment dropped month-on-month from 12 percent in May, as the tourism season kicked in and companies hired temporary workers. Greek jobless figures are not adjusted for seasonal factors. A total of 582,364 people were out of work in June, about 143,000 more than in June 2009. Greece's total work force numbers 4.42 million people. Employment is expected to suffer as the Greek economy goes through its deepest recession in almost 40 years, partly due to draconian austerity measures to shore up the country's finances and avoid a debt default, in exchange for a 110-billion-euro bailout from the European Union and International Monetary Fund. Greece's jobless rate was the fourth highest in the 16-member eurozone after Spain, Slovakia and Ireland and 1.6 percentage points above the bloc's average. The EU and the IMF expect unemployment to rise to nearly 15 percent next year, with the economy suffering its third consecutive year of contraction. The jobless rate was 29.8 percent among those between ages 15 and 24, the worst-affected age group, followed by 16.2 percent for those between the ages of 25 and 34, the authority said. Seven in 10 young Greeks would leave the country if they could, as austerity measures crimp incomes and reduce career prospects, according to a survey published late last month. Unemployment was highest in the northern Greek regions of West and East Macedonia and Thrace that border the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Bulgaria and Turkey. The jobless rate in Athens and the surrounding area, the most populous region in the country, advanced to 11.4 percent from 8.3 percent a year earlier, according to ELSTAT data.

There was little to be seen until the passenger in the window seat next to me stretched his legs for a while. This, just as we crossed in darkness over the Pakistan, India border.
The border was lit for an eternity with fairy lights, the sheer scale gave me goose bumps at the unknown we were heading for and thoughts of the thousands of lives lost battling for this strip of soil and earth. I later discover of course that they are not fairy lights at all, but are in fact 1156 miles of floodlights sanctioned by the Indian government in an attempt to stop infiltration by terrorists. The lights are so bright they can be seen from space!
Somewhere in the seventeenth hour, asleep on the plane surrounded by a sea of dark faces and shiny black hair, DT woke me as we soared above the Himalayas. I had to rub my eyes twice before I understood correctly what he was pointing out were snow-capped giant mountains and not clouds. I chuckle to myself thinking that our pale white faces and DT's balding head protrude above the other passengers. Perhaps at barely 5 foot I can't compare myself to a mountain.
In the arrivals hall I try not to stare, but I'm a curious sort and can't help but admire the grace of the Nepalese, delicate black eyes, strong angular jawlines and cheekbones of a completely perfect expressionless look. Indeed what is there to express as you're herded like cattle from seat to door, to steps to queue. I'd manage to make some kind of drama out of it for sure, conscious that my face might give away something I'm hiding not hiding, as the customs officer checks my passport credentials.
Unaware of exactly how many time zones we've crossed it's beaming daylight as we make our way to the car park. Bulging behind the meet and greet barriers smiling faces and colourful characters wave to their loved ones. We scan amongst them for Sabin and clock him holding a sign that reads 'hfbartist'. I take a dose of pleasure that he's used my email username and wonder if this is a good sign for the creative aspects of the trip. Sabin is of slight build and taller than most Nepalese. He wears a waterproof sports jacket with neat slacks, they're a little too short revealing his smart dress shoes, the only pair he owns worn with dust and crinkled in the exact shape of his step.
We exchange greetings and thanks for the time he's taken to come and collect us. The journey is short and as Brits we do our best to make small talk Sabin accommodates in return, it's clear as a tour guide he's used to this, it's equally clear that in Nepalese culture small talk isn't necessary and in a telepathic fashion we cotton on and just enjoy the silence of the ride. Tumeric yellow roads and buildings along which rainbows of swaying sari's and sunbleached cream cotton shirts hustle and bustle. Silver metal creating split second reflections baking in the sunlight, horns blaring in the stop start city traffic. We round a corner of green parkland and begin to weave the car up impossible alleyways. I feel like I'm in one of those photographs where the exposure's been left on too long and all the light and life is flooding in so fast you can't make it out.

Save Money With Our Energy Efficient Well Pumps
A water system can be selected once the well's yield and depth are known. The two main components of the water system are a submersible pump and motor down the well and a water pressure tank in the house. A series of piping and wiring and various fittings connect the system together.
Your pump and motor supply water vertically up the well through the well seal. From here the water direction is changed from vertical to horizontal following the line from the well to the house. Once in the house, the water flows into a pressure tank where it is pressurized and stored to supply steady pressure to all the taps in the house.
Greene Brothers Well & Pump Inc. offers a wide variety of pumps to choose from. The majority of pumps that are installed in wells today are submersible pumps. We service submersible, hand pumps, solar pumps, shallow well and deep well jet pumps, in-line turbine pumps, and centrifugal pumps.
Submersible Pumps
The submersible pump is one of the most effective ways to deliver water from a well. The advantages of a submersible pump in a drilled well over any other type of pump are:
- No pumphouse
- No suction problems
- Takes less horsepower to deliver more water
- Less maintenance
- Cheaper to install
- No problems with freezing of pump
The average lifetime of a submersible pump is twelve years. After the well is drilled, we will install the correctly sized pump and pressure tank to meet your family's needs. With over fifty pumps in stock, you have a wide selection to choose from.
Brand names include:
Hand Pumps
The hand pump precedes all other pumps for drilled wells. A hand pump can be installed along side your existing submersible pump. When the power is off or if any other problem arises causing your submersible not to operate water will be available from the hand pump. More importantly the hand pump can be used to pump water into your pressure tank and the plumbing in your home. Some hand pumps can be outfitted with a DC electric motor. This motor can powered a number of ways including solar.
Jet Pumps
A jet pump is another type of pump that can be used on a water system. Jet pumps are used for both shallow and deep well installations. A shallow well jet pump is used when the well is 25 feet deep or less. Over 25 feet is considered a deep well and requires a deep well jet pump.
Inside a jet pump water is pumped through a venturi or jet. As water passes through the jet, the velocity of the water increases creating a vacuum which pulls the water from the well.
The disadvantages are:
- Heated pumphouses
- Very susceptible to suction leaks
- Greater chance of freezing

After recent reports surfaced indicating that Canelo Alvarez may be nearing a fight against Dmitry Bivol for his next outing, David Benavidez took a moment to give his take on that potential fight. When the fight was first seriously mentioned there weren't many who appreciated my appraisal of Bivol's style going against someone like Canelo, so let's hear it from a fighter who's at least got some experience sharing a ring with Bivol.
Benavidez on how he views a potential Canelo-Bivol matchup
"I think what's gonna be difficult from this fight is Bivol's not too big of a guy — I'm talking about height wise. I mean the last couple fights Canelo has fought really tall guys, not really power punchers. And I've sparred Bivol too, he has a good one-two but other than that...
"Bivol has good power but to be honest with you, he throws good one-twos but other than that — you can see it in the fight, he's not really too much different, he doesn't really change it up. So when he throws a right hand you'll see a big ass right hand coming, and I feel like he really doesn't have much after that. Especially with Canelo, his way to slide punches, I feel like you need more body shots, more all that shit and Bivol really only kind of throws one-twos. I mean he's very effective with it but like I said, it ain't my job to say what he can or can't do, he got to see it for himself. I'm sure he's gonna get motivated.
"(Bivol's) very effective at what he does, he puts the right hand in really good. You can't block the shot (with a split guard) because he knows exactly how to put it in (between the gloves)...but once you get the timing down with that — you go around and ask about the sparring I had with him and they'll tell you. It's a great fight, I like Bivol a lot."
On who was harder to deal with in sparring between Bivol and Zurdo Ramirez
"They're both world class fighters, bro. I'm not gonna say either one or another one. They're both world class fighters...Zurdo throws a lot of body shots, he pivots a lot, he does different stuff. And I've worked with Zurdo way more...we've been sparring since I was like 19."

BERNIE ECCLESTONE has controversially claimed Lewis Hamilton is being used by Black Lives Matter – and says he would ban the F1 champ from taking a knee.
Following a row with the Mercedes superstar last year, the former F1 boss has again criticised his links to anti-racism campaigners.
Hamilton, 36, made a number of statements in support of BLM and other causes, including the Justice for Breonna Taylor campaign, en route to winning a seventh world title in 2020.
But Ecclestone, 90, hit back at suggestions of racism in the sport.
After being told by the Brit that he 'lacked understanding of the deep-rooted issues' being campaigned against, Ecclestone doubled down.
And in an interview with the Telegraph ahead of the 2021 season commencing in Bahrain on Sunday, he continued his criticism of BLM.
The Suffolk-born businessman said: "I don't think he really understood what I was saying.
"I agree we need to give more people a chance. Don't forget I was the first person to put a black guy in a Formula One car.
I've said: 'Lewis is being used by the people who are supporting this BLM and they are taking a lot of money from it'.
"And I supported him and have supported an awful lot of black people. But Lewis is entitled to his view.
"But I've said to his father, 'Lewis needs to be careful. Because he's being used by the people who are supporting this Black Lives Matter and they are taking a lot of money from it. And nobody knows where it goes'."
Sports Personality of the Year winner Hamilton was asked last year if he was afraid how people would react to him taking a public stand.
He insisted: "There is no way that I could stay silent.
"And once I said that to myself, I didn't hold any fear".
Hamilton will continue to show his support for anti-racism causes in the new season although it is not known whether drivers will take a knee before races as many of them did during 2020.
And Ecclestone, a huge figure in F1 since the 1970s, says he would ban the champ's displays were he still in charge.
He added: "If I'd have still been around there wouldn't have been anyone wearing [anti-racism] T-shirts on the podium, that's for sure.
"One hundred per cent, there wouldn't have been this business of kneeling before races.
"I agree the sport should do more to encourage diversity but it shouldn't be used as a [political] tool."

I can't force Ayu to resign, Atiku to Wike's allies
Written by Olarotimi Oshin on September 21, 2022
Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar has said Senator Iyioricha Ayu cannot be forced to resign as the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Chairman.
The PDP Presidential Candidate said this while reacting to the decision of the camp of Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State to pull out of his campaign council.
Recall that Wike's allies in the early hours of today reportedly pulled out of the campaign Council of Atiku, saying they will play no part in the coming presidential election until the National Chairman of the party, Senator Iyorchia Ayu, resigns his position.
Reacting in a statement he personally signed, Atiku said the decision for Dr. Iyorchia Ayu to resign from office is personal to him and, neither him nor anyone else can make that decision for him.

Why is plate tectonics still a theory?
Why is plate tectonics still a theory?
The plate movements first proposed under the theory of continental drift hypothesis rapid and sudden massive movements of the continents in the past. Because Plate Tectonics explains things it is a theory, Because it does not provide a means of calculation precisely when and where the plates will move it is not a law.
What is the tectonic plate theory called?
Plate tectonics
Plate tectonics is the theory that Earth's outer shell is divided into large slabs of solid rock, called "plates," that glide over Earth's mantle, the rocky inner layer above Earth's core. Earth's solid outer layer, which includes the crust and the uppermost mantle, is called the lithosphere.
Why is the theory of continental drift still a theory?
Fossils of similar organisms across widely disparate continents encouraged the revolutionary theory of continental drift. Continental drift describes one of the earliest ways geologists thought continents moved over time. Today, the theory of continental drift has been replaced by the science of plate tectonics.
How are the theories of continental drift and plate tectonics similar?
Continental Drift as proposed by Alfred Wegener was theory that all of the continents had once been connected as part of a super continent he called Pangea. Plate tectonics is Wegener theory of continental drift reworked. The force needed to move the continents is proposed to be convection currents in the mantle.
What is the difference between continental drift and plate tectonics?
The difference between continental drift and plate tectonics is that the theory of continental drift states that the world was made up of a single continent.The theory of plate-tectonics, on the other hand, states that earth's surface is broken into numbers of shifting plates or slabs.
What evidence supports the theory of continental drift?
One type of evidence that strongly supported the Theory of Continental Drift is the fossil record. Fossils of similar types of plants and animals in rocks of a similar age have been found on the shores of different continents, suggesting that the continents were once joined.
How does plate tectonics affect Continental Drift?
Continental drift via the movement of tectonic plates can affect earth's climate by changing the sizes and locations of both land masses and ice caps, and by altering ocean circulation patterns, which are responsible for transporting heat around the earth, which in turn affect atmospheric circulation processes.
What are the three pieces of evidence for continental drift?
In the early part of the 20th century, scientists began to put together evidence that the continents could move around on Earth's surface. The evidence for continental drift included the fit of the continents; the distribution of ancient fossils, rocks, and mountain ranges; and the locations of ancient climatic zones.

Texas Book Festival Announces 15 Authors for 2020
Virtual fest hosting Dean Koontz, Julia Alvarez, Kevin Kwan
By Robert Faires, 10:20AM, Wed. Aug. 12, 2020
The cowgal astride a Hereford-sized horny toad in the 2020 Texas Book Festival's official poster – a hand tinted creation of the late, beloved Bob "Daddy-O" Wade – sports an expression of such sheer elation, you'd imagine she just heard the names of the 15 authors announced today as attending the virtual fest come November.
They are indeed a lineup to inspire a rip-roarin' "Yahoo!": National Medal of Arts recipient Julia Alvarez, environmental activist Erin Brockovich, award-winning novelist Yaa Gyasi, sharp-eyed satirist Kevin Kwan, and prolific master of suspense Dean Koontz, and comedian Michael Ian Black, among others.
And they represent just a first taste of the literary lights who will grace the 2020 Festival – the first completely virtual edition of the annual festival and the first to be spread over two weeks, October 31 through November 15. The Texas Teen Book Festival launches the fest, with programming October 31 and November 1, then children's books get the focus November 2- 6, and adult programming will brings it home November 6-15.
Family stories figure prominently in the new books being shared by the authors just announced, from Gyasi's Transcendent Kingdom, which follows a family of Ghanaian immigrants living in the Deep South, to Aimee Bender's The Butterfly Lampshade, about a woman trying to reconcile the broken love with her mother to Black's A Better Man: A (Mostly Serious) Letter to My Son, in which he opens up to his college-bound son about his relationship with his own father and what masculinity is all about.
Covering the mating habits of the rich and super-rich is Kwan, with his 21st-century comic spin on Room With a View, Sex and Vanity. While Alvarez looks at how we connect with others in the face of death and other obstacles in her poignant Afterlife.
Suspense and horror are well represented between Koontz, whose recent novel Elsewhere is a technothriller about a father and daughter who discover a device that could reunite them with dearly departed Mom, and Stephen Graham Jones, the Blackfeet Native American author, who spins a grim tale of vengeance for an elk hunt gone wrong in The Only Good Indians.
On the nonfiction front, Brockovich is getting the country to wake up about water with her book, Superman's Not Coming: Our National Water Crisis and What We the People Can Do About It, which outlines the fight for clean water in the United States. And our local hero of history, H.W. Brands, takes us back to the Civil War era to compare and contrast two very different men engaged in that fight in The Zealot and the Emancipator: John Brown, Abraham Lincoln, and the Struggle for American Freedom.
Look for more names to be announced in early September. For more information on the festival, please visit www.texasbookfestival.org.

• Julia Alvarez, Afterlife

In the enchanting world of architectural design, aluminum has emerged as a magical element, capable of transforming mundane spaces into captivating environments. "Architectural Alchemy" celebrates the alchemical prowess of aluminum, exploring how architects wield this versatile metal to transmute structures into visionary works of art and functionality.
1. Metamorphic Facades: Shaping the External Identity
Aluminum's malleability allows architects to craft metamorphic facades that redefine the external identity of buildings. From sleek and modern aesthetics to intricate and ornate designs, aluminum becomes the chameleon of architectural materials, adapting to the vision of designers and transforming the outward appearance of structures.
2. Elemental Elegance: Balancing Form and Function
Architectural alchemy with aluminum is a delicate dance between form and function. The metal's intrinsic elegance allows architects to strike a balance between aesthetic appeal and structural integrity. Whether used in towering skyscrapers or minimalist residential designs, aluminum contributes to a harmonious fusion of elements, creating spaces that are both visually striking and purposeful.
3. Fluidity in Design: Sculpting Dynamic Spaces
The fluidity of perforated aluminum sheet metal lends itself to the sculpting of dynamic spaces. Architects mold the metal into curves, arcs, and free-flowing forms, ushering in a sense of movement and energy. This fluid design language transforms interiors and exteriors alike, creating spaces that evoke a sense of continuity and invite occupants on a visual journey through the architectural landscape.
4. Sustainable Sorcery: Eco-Friendly Enchantments
In the realm of sustainability, aluminum is a virtuoso performer. Architects practicing architectural alchemy with aluminum make eco-friendly choices, as the metal is fully recyclable and requires minimal energy for extraction and processing. The enchantment lies in creating structures that not only captivate with their design but also leave a positive ecological footprint.
5. Ethereal Elements: Lightweight Wonders
Aluminum's lightweight nature adds an ethereal quality to architectural designs. Towers seemingly defy gravity, bridges span great distances with grace, and installations achieve monumental heights—all made possible by the ethereal touch of aluminum. The metal's ability to create large-scale wonders without burdening structures with excessive weight is a testament to its magical qualities.
Conclusion: The Alchemical Symphony of Space and Metal
"Architectural Alchemy" orchestrates a symphony where aluminum takes center stage, conducting a transformative experience in the realm of architecture. As architects blend their visions with the alchemical properties of aluminum, spaces undergo a magical metamorphosis, transcending the ordinary and captivating the imagination.
In the alchemy of architectural design, aluminum is the alchemist's secret ingredient, turning the mundane into the extraordinary. As we witness the evolution of spaces touched by the transformative power of aluminum, we are reminded that architecture is not merely a science—it is an art form infused with magic, where aluminum serves as the enchanting catalyst for the creation of spaces that inspire, innovate, and endure.

Mississippi will fly a new state flag with magnolia and the phrase "We trust God," with voters approving the design Tuesday. It is replacing retired Confederate flag state legislators months ago as part of the national account of racial injustice.
The magnolia flag was the only design on the universal ballot, and voters were asked to say yes or no. The majority said yes.
Legislators will have to put the design into law, but they are expected to do so without fanfare because they have already done the hard work of pulling the flag some people wanted to keep.
Mississippi has been without a flag since late June, when lawmakers relinquished the last state flag in the United States that included the Confederate Battle Emblem – a red field topped with a blue X with 13 white stars. The rebel flag has been used by Ku Klux Klan groups and is widely condemned as a racist.
The new Mississippi flag has the state flower on a dark blue background with red bars on both ends. Magnolia is surrounded by stars representing Mississippi as the 20th state. The flag also contains one star made of diamond shapes that represents the Native American people who lived on Earth before the arrival of the others.
White racists in the state legislature adopted the Confederate flag in 1894 amid a backlash to the power blacks gained during Reconstruction.
For decades, the science has been divisive in a country with a large black population, currently around 38%. The majority of voters chose to keep the flag in the 2001 election, but many cities, counties, and all public universities in Mississippi stopped flying it due to the Confederate symbol. Many rolled the Mississippi flag after mid-2015, when a white man shot and killed nine black people who were worshiping at a church in Charleston, South Carolina; He had previously stepped forward to take pictures with the rebel flag.
Until this summer, the majority of Mississippi lawmakers were unwilling to consider changing the flag because they deemed the issue too volatile. The momentum changed as protests erupted across the United States after the killing of a black man in Minneapolis police custody. The latest push to change the Mississippi flag came from business, education, religious and sports groups – including, in particular, the Mississippi Baptist Convention and the Southeastern Conference.
Angela Reginal, 53, of Pearl, said she voted for the new design. Reginal, who is black, said the old Confederate flag was "a part of history," and although she said it never bothered her, she believed it needed to change.
"For me, if it hurts my brother, I think it needs to change," said Reginal, who works in the home health agency office.
Becky Roth, a white voter in the same district in Pearl, said she voted for the new flag but wanted to keep the old flag.
"If you try to erase history, you have to repeat it," said Roth, 50, a bank employee.
Joan Martin, 79, a retired Picayune registered nurse, said she voted for the new science because "I had no choice."
Martin said, who is white, "There was only one thing and I think it looks beautiful and he said, 'We trust God,' so I voted yes to him."
The Old Flag Retirement Law states that the new law cannot include the Confederate battle slogan and must be "in God we trust." The request for the religious phrase helped convince some conservative lawmakers to abandon the ancient science.
Taderell Lamont Roberts, 48, from Picayune, has his middle name, which is written on the name sticker on his Heritage Plastics work shirt, where he works as a foreman. He said he voted for the new science.
"This old flag to me represents a lot of rebellion, you know, good old boys," said Roberts, who is Black. "It never bothered me. … But it is time for a different science so that our new generation can see everything that was in the past, and they don't have to deal with that. We have grown up to live with it. But I'm glad it's time for a change."
The audience has submitted nearly 3,000 flag designs. A committee of nine people – with members appointed by the governor, deputy governor and speaker of the House of Representatives – chose the magnolia flag to enter the ballot.
If the voters had rejected the magnolia flag, the committee would have designed another flag that still could not include the symbol of the Confederacy and must include "In God we trust." This design was supposed to go to the ballot in November 2021.
Separately, supporters of the Old Mississippi Flag have begun an initiative that could revive the ancient flag by putting up a Confederate-themed banner and some other designs for a statewide vote. But they face significant hurdles in gathering enough signatures to get their ideas into the ballot, and their efforts may be complicated by limited public interaction during the coronavirus pandemic.

Watch: Stan Brakhage at Work on Very and Night Mulch
If nothing else, I owe Stan Brakhage for my irrational fear of childbirth ever since I was forced to sit through a collegiate projection of Window Water Baby Moving. Often polarizing for those new to the medium, it's impossible to deny Brakhage's ingenuity in his tactile use of film. His oeuvre seems to erase the boundary between method and the means by which to achieve it, which becomes all the more peculiar once you seem him in action. Phil Solomon, a fellow experimental filmmaker and collaborator, has uploaded a handful of videos of Brakhage, in the classroom and out, which The Seventh Art says will serve as the basis of a long-term project.
My favorite of the bunch is this ten minute clip of Brakhage, holed up in the booth of a downtown Boulder diner, his paints and film unfurling over the covered tabletop. He casually reworks a 35 mm trailer for the film Quills, creating what would be his 2001 shorts Very and Night Mulch, which I sadly cannot find online. Throughout the process, he convivially chats with Solomon and their friend Abraham Ravett, running the gamut from the importance of Jews in the arts to his own process.

Ballerina 1
I make friends with cities the way the other people make friends with people. Perhaps it is because my need for solitude and sanctuary has always been so great.
As a child, in my immigrant, Italian mother's house, even grown up, I was never allowed to close my bedroom door, nor be alone for any period of time.
Instead, I found sanctuary where they could not follow me; the empty railroad tracks behind my house, the black acid plateau below the dump, the jagged granite outcrop, on my way to school, every day, high up, my back against the rock, the sun on my face.
Spread your wings
Come on fly awhile
Straight to my arms
Little angel child
We can find many things in other people but sanctuary and solitude are not among of them. No matter how kind, how non-judgmental, or even how silent, not even a lover can hold our solitude or offer us sanctuary. Solitude cannot be shared. It can only shelter one, and we must never turn another person into a sanctuary.
I know many people cannot fathom New York City as a place of solitude or sanctuary, but for some of us, for many of us, that cacophonous, scurrying, chaotic place held a holy peace. The asphalt jungle they called it in the 1960's, boundaried by danger and risk - physical, emotional, cultural, intellectual risk.
And we who needed that raw, unmapped landscape, craved it with a desperation as great as the bleakness that emanated from its haunted streets.
SFX 23 – X into Ballerina 3
You know you're only
Lonely twenty-two story block
That bleakness flowed and met the desolation of our own hearts, the way the sea washes back into its tributaries.
We who fit nowhere else.
We who ground to the granite ignite below our feet.
We who fled the myopic, claustrophobic, Puritanism of America's interior, breathed free though ragged in its harsh embrace.
SFX 24 – X into Ballerina 4
Crowd will catch you
Crowd will catch you
Fly it, sigh it, try it
People talk about how the world is changing.
Well, I may be wrong
But some of us understand that the world has changed forever.
But something deep in my heart tells me I'm right and I don't think so
There are no more empty places,
You know I saw the writing on the wall
no dark alleyways, no secret corners left anywhere.
Look, New York City is only a small island. It was easy to conquer. The boroughs quickly followed.
Now it is like every other city in the world, it too is now mapped, delineated, bought, sold, branded.
TIME OUT New York, TIME OUT LA, Time Out London
TIME OUT Marrakesh, TIME OUT Istanbul, TIME OUT Bangkok
TIME OUT Aleppo
When I tell people what I miss about New York, they think I am talking about the 60, 70, 80's They think I'm talking about my past…a past that has been glorified to them.
They come up to me on the street, they say, Oh! Penny Arcade. I read about you in Patti Smith's book Just Kids. They associate me with that lost glory of the 70's but I stayed underground. I out-Rimbaud-ed Patti, and I equate that time as only glorious defeat.
I know from experience that my point of view is incomprehensible to some people. Why? because my point of view has been honed by a long exile at the edge of society.
SFX 25 – X into Ballerina 5 – But If It Gets To You
But if it gets to you
And sometimes it does.
And you feel like you just can't go on
You can't go on talking to stupid people.
All you gotta do
Yes the world has changed.
Is ring a bell
and you…
….you need look no further than the roses.
Haven't you noticed that the roses in the shops have lost their scent? That they no longer smell like roses.
Doesn't that frighten you?
Does anyone know what I'm talking about?
Can I get a witness in this room?
William Shakespeare said, "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet", and what pray tell me is the name of the rose now….

Inkscape is among the best vector image editing software available online. Better yet, it's free. Still, being open-source, it's not uncommon to have concerns over whether or not your projects can be used for commercial reasons. So, can you use Inkscape for commercial use?
Yes, Inkscape can be used for commercial purposes, however, there are a few things you should keep in mind. You can't use someone else's design as a part of yours without express permission, and you'll also want to make sure any fonts you use are properly licensed.
If you're looking to create professional projects in Inkscape that can be used for commercial purposes, but you're not sure of the legality around it, this is for you. In our guide below, we will break down everything from whether Inkscape itself can be used for commercial reasons to its fonts and how they can intersect with copyright. So with that, let's dive right into it!
Is Inkscape Itself Allowed to Be Used for Commercial Reasons?
We mentioned that projects created in Inkscape can be used for commercial purposes. But what about the program itself? Can it be distributed to a team and used for commercial reasons?
Inkscape itself is allowed to be used for commercial purposes as long the following requirements are met:
- Modifications must be made publicly available: If any modifications are made to the program they must also be made publicly available in accordance with the open-source nature of the program.
- License must be included with its distribution: When distributing Inkscape to a team, you must also provide everyone with the license as well. You have to do this regardless of whether or not modifications were made.
As long as you have made your modifications publicly available (if you made any) and you include the license, Inkscape itself is free to use in a commercial setting. In the next section we will dive into more detail on what the license is for Inkscape and the broad strokes of what all it entails.
What License Does Inkscape Use?
To better understand how Inkscape can be used commercially, it would be beneficial to take a look at their licensing agreement.
Inkscape uses a GNU General Public License. This license is what allows Inkscape to be free to the public and free to share.
Are All Fonts on Inkscape Commercial Use?
Now that we've looked at individual projects as well as the program itself, it's time to turn our attention to the fonts you use within it. So, are all fonts on Inkscape available for commercial use or do you need special licensing to use some of them?
Though many of them are, not all of the fonts on Inkscape will necessarily be available for commercial use without special licensing due to copyright. That is because Inkscape simply takes advantage of the fonts you already have installed on your computer or those you add later.
How to Tell if a Font is Okay for Commercial Use
If some fonts on your computer may be fine to use for commercial purposes while others are not, you're probably wondering how to distinguish them. How exactly do you tell if a font is okay for commercial use? Especially if you downloaded it a while ago and may not be able to remember where you got it.
The tips below will help you to check any font on your computer for copyright so you can know whether or not it is okay for commercial use:
- Check the font site you got the font from: This one only works if you remember which sites you got which fonts from. If you're like a lot of us, you probably have a reliable site you go to more often than others. On the site it should tell you if the font is copyrighted or licensed.
- Google the font name: Sometimes, the fastest way to find out if a font is copyrighted is to just punch it into Google and see what comes up. Make sure you check the font on a reputable website like Dafont, however, as there are less than reputable sites hawking fake font names. If nothing comes up, try our next step.
- Take a look at the font zip folder: The final method doesn't require the internet or even knowing where the font came from. With this you simply need to find the zip folder the font came in when you downloaded it. Then check for a document within that says the font name followed by "license txt." This should have any information on copyright.
At the end of the day, you should be able to figure out whether a font is protected or open-source in a relatively short time. Whether it's through a simple Google search or checking out the text files within the zip folder for the font, it should only take minutes.
Do Professionals Use Inkscape?
Just because Inkscape can be used for professional, commercial use doesn't necessarily mean that it is. So let's take a look at the pros to see if they really use it.
Professionals use Inkscape all the time. Not just because it cuts down on production costs but also because it is one of the best vector image editing software out there.
The bottom line is, you absolutely can use Inkscape for commercial use. That includes not only projects you make within Inkscape but with the program itself. That's because the GNU General Public License allows for the program to be freely shared (though you do have to provide the license if you share it) and for the contents created within it to belong to their creators.
There are some important caveats here, however. You can't use someone else's design as a part of yours without getting permission from them. Further, because Inkscape just uses the fonts you have downloaded onto your computer, you will need to make sure they are copyright free as well. With a little due diligence you can get your commercial project underway in no time!

MIDDLETOWN, NJ — On Thursday, October 25th, Middletown Township formally withdrew its 2018 Monmouth County Parks System grant application to fund two athletic fields at Stevenson Park.
The Township will apply for another Monmouth County Open Space grant next year and will also explore the option of adding two soccer/lacrosse fields at the existing Bayview Elementary School facility.
"In response to the community's concerns, we have decided to remove fields at Stevenson Park for consideration," said Mayor Kevin Settembrino. "Our next step is to discuss the possibility of improving the fields at Bayview at a shared service meeting with the Board of Education this week."
There are over 8,000 youth athletes in Middletown, so the Township Committee is committed to expanding field capacity within the Township to ensure that all teams will have an equal opportunity to practice and play.

Point of Care Diagnostics: Electrochemical sensors as a Platform for Rapid Detection of Diseases
Biosensors provide highly sensitive assay for rapid detection of any disease and its implementation in a simple, easy-to-use, inexpensive, point-of-care (POC) disposable cassette that carries out all the unit operations from sample introduction to detection. A novel, ultrasensitive electrochemical immunosensor was developed for simple, rapid determination of various biomarkers. Under optimum conditions, the proposed sensors displayed wide linear detection range (1 fM to 1 μM) with a low detection limit in standard. Furthermore, the developed uPARimmunosensor showed good reproducibility, repeatability, and storage stability (75% of initial activity upto 4 weeks). Currently, the speaker's group is focusing on to fabrication of the manufactured electrode in to point-of-care diagnosis. Their system is particularly suitable for resource-poor settings, where centralized laboratory facilities, funds, and trained personnel are in short supply, and for use in doctors' offices, clinics, and at home.

Contemporary artist, Manuel Mané, was born in Achern, Germany in 1985.
His passion for art begun after viewing a documentary film about Jean Michel Basquiat, which greatly inspired the young autodidact artist and greatly influenced his visual language.
One of the main reasons that drew Manuel Mané to paint, was a for of self-expression, seeking for the reduction of chaos in one's existence, through bringing one's emotions and feelings on canvas. When in the creative process, Manuel admits, that countless ideas come to him simultaneously, connecting various elements in the form of the painting.
The artist gives the titles to his canvases, although he avoids describing them in more detail. The artist stipulates that each and every spectator has their own unique truth and understanding, that allows them to interpret his art in a singular way.
Manuel Mané considers that there is not one truth, but rather there are countless possibilities to perceive of the so supposed reality. One sees what one wants to see subconsciously, each spectator is the creator of his own world. According to the artist: "We do not see through our eyes visually; we see through our mind what is described as "the inner eye".

Who doesn't love getting a beautiful bouquet? For their newest fragrance, Coach Poppy Flower, Coach's perfumer teamed up with celebrity florist Denise Porcaro (founder of Flower Girl in New York City) to create a scent based on an actual bouquet. So while Denise put together an arrangement of gorgeous roses, sugar raspberries, citrus, and peonies, Coach's perfumer Karen blended these notes into a perfume. And voilà, Coach Poppy Flower was born! To celebrate this lush floral scent (it smells like a real garden), Coach is hosting free flower arranging classes at Macy's stores across the country. Denise will be at each class giving direction and tips and you get to take home your own bouquet!

text: For all the phases of life we have lived through, it would be worth being written as a book. But only a book to your shelf, a book that is close to your heart, a book that carries the heaviest of hearts. A book that keeps us alive, beacause everytime we read it we realise what we have walked through making us endure tomorrow as well. The moment, authors completed the 1st page of the book, they realised that it was the self help and love that needed to reach across all the minds. His intension was, if even one person has read this book and had even the smallest change in their life, thats the rewards that he wanted to treasure. As each page passed by, he wanted the readers to know how strong they where and how well they have endured up until now. Reflect and believe on our own confidence and they will be an inspiration for the future generations. By the instances of reliability we walk with the author and see our life through the expression. By the end of the book you will truly know how important you are while closing it's final chapter. There is a questionnaire at the end of the book, which helps you write down some personal thought which makes it even special to yourself, like being a friend to hear you or maybe a book that is to your personal collection. The author, Mr. Shrikant Mohan is an entrepreneur, hailing from Kerala. At the age of 22 when he started his business, he had the thought of writing this book and eventually completed over time.
