New blood test helps predict diabetes earlier
It is also hoped that the molecule, microRNA (MiR), will be able to detect people who are at a high risk of heart and artery disease . The MiR diabetes test can be used in conjunction with conventional methods, and may be able to distinguish those who develop some complications of diabetes caused by damage to blood vessels, including heart attack, stroke and poor circulation.
This could also be a quick and simple way to monitor blood vessel health, so that the damage that diabetes does to the blood vessels can be detected earlier, and early treatment such as cholesterol and blood pressure lowering drugs can target the problems.
Manuel Mayr, from King's College London who is leading the study, said "It's very important for doctors to define those diabetic patients that are at the highest risk of developing cardiovascular complications. We hope that this new class of blood markers may give additional insight that we're currently not getting from other clinical tests ."

Simmons has some of the best tape in the draft class.
Ritchie owns just five points overall through 26 contests this season, but he'd been on a drought of nine consecutive games played without one before finding the back of the net against the Jets.
We're constantly supporting each other in our individual endeavors and thinking about all the things that we can build together.It feels like forever ago when most of the free world vilified them for standing firm in their decision to not overpay players in the latest free agency spree, even if that player's name was Earl Thomas and the courtship had lasted 14 long months.Lance Tejada scored 16 points and Jordan Cohen added 11 with seven boards for the Mountain Hawks , who shot 48 percent from the field to Marist's 23 of 55 .That's the name of the game.He's also the co-founder of SAP and not an owner who typically is very visible.They may even get most of their info from the leaks.

Ricochet hit an insane moonsault off the second turnbuckle outside after running up the ring post from the floor.

Transient Period, 5. Chapter 1 is also unified in its approach to the compensation or reactive power control of loads; the compensating network is successively described in terms of Preface xv its power-factor correction attributes, its voltage-stabilizing attributes, and finally its properties as a set of sequence networks capable of voltage stabilization, power-factor correction, and phase balancing, both in terms of phasors and instantaneous voltages and currents.
Series capacitors are used for line-length compensa. You may send reeactive item to up to five recipients. Strictly, the concept of instantaneous response requires the definition of instantaneous power-factor and instantaneous phase-unbalance. Home Contact Us Help Free delivery worldwide. Visit our Beautiful Books page and find lovely books for kids, eystems lovers and tj.e.miller. Wiley, New York, Only series capacitive compensation contributes to both objectives. Practising engineers in the utility industry and in industrial plants will find both the theory and the description of reactive power control equipment invaluable in solving problems in power-factor correction, voltage control and stabilization, phase balancing and the handling of harmonics.
Although Baum considered voltage regulation and reactive power requirements in detail, he did not consider stability. This partially explains the superficially strange fact that we can often sysrems in the same network, shunt compensation in the form of capacitors in the distribution system and shunt inductors in the transmission system. We use cookies to give you the best possible experience.
We can form a notion of the powef of supply in terms of how nearly constant are the voltage and frequency at the supply point, and how near to unity is the power factor. Conventional capacitor switching rreactive generally operate in cycles. The authors are all practising power-system engineers who have had a total of many decades of experience in the technologies related to reactive power.
Baum's compensators uld have been synchronous condensers. First-Swing Period and Transient Stability, 6. Although these aspects of reactive power have long been recognized, they have recently acquired increased importance for at least two reasons: It appea from Equation 90 that a significant effect on the transmission angle wou be achieved only if s were an order of magnitude powed than in the exa ple: The regulation of k S hmust not only be sufficiently rapid, it must also electriic continuous.
However, from an economic point of view, it is still thejob of the system engineer to determine how much can be accomplished by fixed capacitors and inductorshow much needs to be switched, and finally how much needs to be rapidly and continuously controlled, as, for example, during disturbances. Once-through Filtered T.j.e.mi,ler System, 5.
Reactive Power Control in Electric Systems : T. J. E. Miller :
Thus, when we consider that the average transmission distance in the United States is only of the order of miles, it is evident that we do not really avoid transmission entirely unless the generation of reactive power is at the same voltage level as is the consumption to be supplied.

Thus the present book, with its emphasis on compensation and control and harmonicsis particularly appropriate at this time. Compensation may therefore be applied to improve this performance as well as to benefit other consumers. Working through the generators' relatively large field time constants, these can themselves have a tendency toward oscillatory instability, and supplementary stabilizing circuits are often used in conjunction with their exciter control systems.
These online bookshops told us they have this item: Principles of Operation, 2. These dynamic variations are summarized in Figure 4 for the fault discussed above. Rapid response excitation systems and new control strategies have steadily enhanced the performance of the condenser. Many disturbances in a power system are so small that they do cause appreciable change in the speeds or rotor angles of synchr machines.

'Generous Orthodoxy' was a phrase that the founders of St Mellitus College used in its early days to describe the approach the college took to bringing together the mainstream traditions of the church in a mission-focussed and Spirit-inspired way, as it sought to train students across the breadth of the Church of England and beyond. It is a phrase that appears to have been coined by the theologian Hans Frei, and since the early days of St Mellitus, seems to have been used more and more widely across the church. Inevitably, such a phrase can be used in a number of different ways, and can sometimes confuse as much as it can clarify.
The McDonald Agape Foundation has kindly funded a three-year research project to help bring some theological and spiritual clarity to the term, and to try to define as far as possible, what we at St Mellitus College mean by 'Generous Orthodoxy'. The project leader is the Rt Revd Dr Graham Tomlin, Bishop of Kensington, and President of St Mellitus College, as well as its first Dean. The project will comprise a number of public lectures, a colloquium bringing together theologians from across the world to share their ideas on the topic, and will result in a couple of published books.
Generous Orthodoxy Lecture Series 2019
Monday 4th March 2019 – Jesus – Reliably Surprising, Generously Orthodox with Professor David Ford, Cambridge University
Jesus is, simultaneously, both utterly reliable and continually surprising. He is the embodiment of a God-centred, Spirit-filled orthodoxy that invites us into an abundant life, enabling daring, loving generosity. This lecture suggests that Hans Frei, who described his own theology as intended to be generously orthodox, is the most important twentieth-century North American theologian for the twenty-first century. Three main thrusts of his theology – his work on the identity of Jesus Christ, his account of why so much eighteenth and nineteenth century interpretation failed to do justice to the Gospel narratives, and his five-type map of modern Christian theology – come together in an account of Jesus Christ that distils for our century the best both of classical and of twentieth-century Christian theology. I then propose an account of Jesus that moves beyond Frei, inspired by the way the Gospel of John moves through and beyond the other three Gospels.
Monday 10th June 2019 – The Love of God, the Home of God with Professor Miroslav Volf, Yale University
Generous orthodoxy is in part about theological discourse: whether it is open and embracing (like Karl Rahner's, for instance) or strident and excluding (like Karl Barth's). But it is above all about the content of theological claims. In the lecture, Volf will argue that the Christian "story of everything" is a generous story: It begins with the love of God who is love and it reaches culmination in the entire world becoming the home of God and the true home of human beings.
Monday 23rd September 2019 – The Art of Hope: Imagining Another World in a World That Breaks Our Hearts with Professor James K. A. Smith, Calvin College
There is something almost surreal about Christianity. At its heart is a string of incredible claims—a God who becomes human; a crucified God who is raised from the dead; a cosmic Creator who knows everything about us and yet loves us, forgives us, and promises to wipe away every tear. Is it any wonder, then, that the Church has been an incubator of the imagination, a wellspring for the arts? If orthodoxy is generous because it has something to offer the world, one of those gifts is an ability to imagine the world otherwise. The Chalcedonian orthodoxy that dares to imagine the mystery of the God-man is the orthodoxy that underwrites an entire artistic tradition that speaks to human hungers. This lecture will consider how and why the Spirit speaks to us in songs and poems, painting portraits of a world we couldn't otherwise imagine—and why the arts are a conduit of hope in a culture of despair.
Doors open 6:45pm at St Mellitus College, 24 Collingham Road, London SW5 0LX

Traffic Collision with Injuries (May 17,2019)
The Cobb County Police Department's Selective Traffic Enforcement Program, (STEP) Unit is investigating a traffic collision with injuries that occurred on Cobb Parkway at Creekside Village in the City of Acworth on May 16, 2019 at 12:16 p.m.
Per investigators, a red 2006 Mack dump truck, operated by 48-year-old James Brown of Cartersville, was traveling north on Cobb Parkway approaching Creekside Village Drive.
As the Mack dump truck approached the intersection, the traffic signal changed to red and the truck failed to slow enough to stop before entering the intersection. James Brown attempted to make a right turn on to Creekside Village Parkway to avoid colliding with vehicles in the intersection and struck a curb. After colliding with the curb, the truck rolled onto its left side.
A load of dirt in the Mack dump truck collided with the left side of a silver Audi Q7 operated by 43-year-old Kimberly Lim of Kennesaw who was traveling east on Creekside Village Drive and stopped in the left turn lane at the intersection. The Audi was also occupied by 32-year-old Lindsey Mooney of Canton, 42-year-old Jessica Carter of Dallas, 49-year-old Stephanie Townsend of Cartersville, and 39-year-old Natalia Kinsey of Rome.
All five occupants of the Audi were transported to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital with minor injuries. James Brown was transported to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital with visible injuries.
This collision remains under investigation and anyone with information is requested to contact the Cobb County Police Department at 770-499-3987.

More electric cars coming
General Motors and Audi among those which reveal new models at the Las Vegas consumer electronics show
LAS VEGAS • Although sales of electric and hybrid vehicles have struggled, carmakers are charging ahead to bring new battery- powered vehicles to market.
Several car companies have focused on electric vehicles at the International CES consumer trade show here, including General Motors, which on Wednesday introduced the production version of its Chevrolet Bolt.
GM's chief executive, Ms Mary Barra, said the Bolt was a big step forward in the electrification of vehicles because of its price and ability to travel 322km on a fully charged battery.
"This is truly the first EV that cracks the code because of long range at an affordable price," she said in a keynote speech at the show.
The Bolt, which will go on sale this year, will carry a sticker price of US$30,000 (S$43,000), including government incentives that total about US$7,500. But even with its extended range and mass-market price, the Bolt may still face a difficult battle to lure consumers who are taking advantage of US$2-a-gallon petrol to buy larger vehicles.
While sales of pickups and sport utility vehicles soared last year, all-electric models and gas-electric hybrids languished in showrooms. For example, sales in the United States of the all-electric Nissan Leaf fell 43 per cent last year compared with 2014, and the leading hybrid model, the Toyota Prius, dropped about 11 per cent. Overall, electric and hybrid vehicles accounted for about 2 per cent of the US market.
Still, luxury carmakers such as BMW introduced a new electric car last year and Tesla is expanding its line-up to include an all-electric SUV, the Model X. GM has had mixed success with its Volt plug-in hybrid, which marries battery power with a small gasoline engine that significantly extends its driving range.
But Ms Barra said on Wednesday that GM is "committed to electrification" despite the lagging sales of current electric cars and hybrids. Others at GM said the new Bolt could change consumers' perception of purely electric cars as strictly for commuting and other short trips.
But industry analysts are unsure whether electric cars will catch on with consumers anytime soon.
"It will be interesting to see how the market embraces the Bolt in this era of cheap gas," said Mr Karl Brauer, an analyst with auto research firm Kelley Blue Book. "But from a value and function standpoint, it sets a new benchmark."
The Bolt is a roomy, four-door compact car that seats five people and includes features such as a rear camera that streams a wide-angle view directly to the rear-view mirror used by the driver.
Ms Barra said that it also has fast-charging capability and can achieve an 80 per cent charge within an hour.
She added that the Bolt could prove ideal for ride-sharing in urban areas. This week, GM invested US$500 million in the ride-sharing service Lyft as part of its strategy to adapt to different trends in automotive transportation.
"The way people get around is changing forever and we get that," said Ms Barra, who emphasised that GM expected to be a leader in new forms of personal mobility.
Other carmakers are also showcasing electric models at International CES, including Volkswagen, which on Tuesday unveiled a concept version of an electric microbus.
On Wednesday, VW's luxury brand, Audi, provided more details on a previously shown electric SUV called the e-Tron. The battery- powered e-Tron is expected to go into production by 2018 and is a cornerstone of Audi's plans to move aggressively into electric cars and plug-in hybrids.
"We expect that at least 25 per cent of our business in America will have a plug within 10 years," said Mr Scott Keogh, president of Audi of America. The e-Tron is also becoming something of a laboratory for Audi as it ramps up its development of connected vehicles and autonomous cars.
"Electrification, connectivity and autonomous driving are the trends," said Mr Ricky Hudi, a senior executive at Audi in Germany.
Audi has already developed prototypes of driverless cars, but the technology required was so large it took up nearly the entire trunk space. But Mr Hudi said the technology was advancing so rapidly that Audi's current prototypes use much smaller, high-speed processors.
"The brain of piloted driving has become smaller than a tablet computer," he said.

7 Ways To Chase Away Your SEO Customers
Establishing a web advertising organization is the simple procedure, your next assignment is delivered solid customers so you can begin winning cash.

In spite of the fact that showcasing is an incredible method for promoting and additionally conveying the coveted message to your clients, don't fill their inboxes with a lot of updates and inquiries. Envision that amid the main month, when you are yet to digest the administrations of a firm, you are assaulted with a considerable measure of inquiries and updates. Get to discover more on better routes to establish an efficient communication channel without sounding to bugging. Also, don't get too excited. Think of an appropriate survey that will be your best instrument in getting the criticism that you require before going ahead with your Website design enhancement administration.

Those that figure refreshing them with numerous pages of your Web optimization system would be a smart thought, it is ideal if you remained quiet about it and after that give them a concise later. You are going to exhaust them. You might think of it as ordinary text, but for them, it is something long and they will find it hard to understand.
Considering that you are available 24/7, it doesn't mean that they also are in the office during the same period. If you were in office amid the week's end, strain yourself from sending over different messages. If you ignore, you are going to make it harder for you to do business. Learn more about the office hours of the client and only contact them during office hours. Although it is a common sales pitch, assuring the first-page search engine ranking isn't good. Proficient firms know that anything may happen. There are very many components that you have to consider. Some firms portray SEO as a short-term strategy which is not a good way to express the service. Try not to offer what you don't have. If you don't fulfill what you state, you are going to lose business because you haven't accomplished what you stated.
Stay away from the idea of false hope. Just guarantee that things that you can convey. Ensure that you keep the relationship with your customer strong by abiding by the above standards.

- $3.99
- $3.99
Publisher Description
In 1956, the Midsummer Theatre—Noble, Maine's most popular playhouse—closed after the daughter of the owners was murdered. Unfortunately, her killer was never found. The owners did not want the theatre opened again, but when the theatre passed into the hands of their grandson, he decided that it was time to renovate and reopen.
But the ghosts of the past don't just fade away.
As a two year anniversary present, medium and paranormal investigator Arabella Pierce arranges for a private investigation for her and her love, Lucas Brown. Not only to help the owner get answers about his aunt's murder, but to help keep interest in the theatre until it reopens. But as the investigation gets underway, Arabella and Lucas quickly learn that the darkness behind the murder still lingers, and if they don't remove that darkness the theatre can never again open its doors.
They have forty-eight hours to solve the mystery of Midsummer Theatre, and every second will count.

Any Move against Sheikh Qassim to Have Serious Consequences
Press Shia Agency – The deputy secretary general of al-Wefaq National Islamic Society, Bahrain's main opposition group, warned the ruling Al Khalifa regime that any steps against Sheikh Isa Qassim, the country's top Shiite cleric, will have serious consequences.
Press Shia Agency – In a post on his Tweeter page, Sheikh Hussein al-Daihi described Sheikh Qassim, the spiritual leader of Bahrain's Shiite majority, as a redline for the people, saying that repercussions of any move against him would go beyond Bahrain's borders.
He added that Sheikh Qassim's courageous and steadfast stances on pursuing the oppressed Bahraini nation's legitimate rights are the reason why the regime has been targeting him.
Al-Daihi further called on the international community to fulfill its responsibilities and put an end to the Al Khalifa's oppression of the Bahraini nation.
Manama on Monday postponed the trial of Sheikh Qassim until March 14, as the supporters of the prominent cleric continued a sit-in outside his house in the restive village of Diraz.
The trial session of Sheikh Qassim had been scheduled on Monday, February 27, but was adjourned until March 14 after the prominent cleric refused to appear in court.
It came as dozens of supporters of Sheikh Qassim continued their sit-in in front of the house of the cleric in Diraz, west of Manama.
People also staged demonstrations in other cities across the Persian Gulf country on the weekend in solidarity with the top Shiite cleric.
Manama announced on June 20, 2016, that it had revoked the citizenship of Sheikh Qassim. The regime later said it would put the senior cleric on trial on charges of "illegal fund collections, money laundering and helping terrorism".
Sheikh Qassim's previous trials had also been postponed after the prominent cleric did not appear in court.
Bahrain, a close ally of the US in the Persian Gulf region, has been witnessing almost daily protests against the Al Khalifa dynasty since early 2011, with Manama using heavy-handed measures in an attempt to crush the demonstrations.
Scores of Bahrainis have been killed and hundreds of others injured and arrested in the ongoing crackdown on the peaceful demonstrations.

Attempting to measure the cost of medical mistakes is not an easy feat, since the most sensationalized medical errors, brought to the public's attention in jury trials, only account for about 10 percent of medical malpractice cases.
As Doctors Adjust to EMR Systems, Medical Malpractice Claims May Increase
It is widely believed that digitizing medical records will reduce the number of medical malpractice claims in the long term. But, in the short term, chances are good that claims of medical negligence will actually increase.

We are concerned for some people in the Lewes area affected by ME or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and other seriously debilitating conditions who are being put through assessments by councils with a view to cutting down the number of Blue Badges issued.
Those that carry out these often harsh assessments are not always aware that many of the applicants have long-term illnesses and disabilities that vary and fluctuate.
Some may appear fairly able at a good time but can be seriously debilitated and even bed-bound for other long periods. Physical and mental functioning in patients such as these is often short-lived and cannot be sustained for any useful length of time.
The councils drive to cut down on the number of badges issued is causing great stress to those who are genuinely disabled and this is having a seriously adverse impact on their health and mobility.
Having a complicated long-term disabling illness is distressing enough without being put through hoops and landed with the burden of proof to gain one's entitlements.

IT 15 of little use now to criticise papers on Ireland, for they will hardly weigh with the people against the addresses of the leaders ; and we only note, therefore, that in the Fortnig. hily Review, Mr. Arthur Arnold is strongly on Mr. Gladstone's side, with the amendment that Ireland should be moderately represented in the British Parliament, and that Mr. R. Anderson is strongly against him, arguing that Irish pros- perity has been caused by the Union, and that we have
only to go on with firm patience. Neither paper contains anything new, as, indeed, there is nothing new to be said. Mr. T. Wemyss Reid sends a hearty eulogium on Mr. Forster, bringing into prominent relief his courage, his unselfishness, and his strength of conviction. He corrects one popular error.
It is constantly asserted that after the Phcenix Park murders, Mr. Forster offered to resume the post of Chief Secretary. This is not the case ; he made a finer offer than that :—
" On that Sanday morning Mr. Forster went to Downing Street, saw Mr. Gladstone, and offered to leave for Dublin the same night, not to resume the Chief Secretaryship, hut to take the place of the Under-Secretary and keep up the ioutine work of the Castle until the two vacant offices could be filled up. Ho made this noble offer at the moment when the nerves of most men had been shaken by the great tragedy, knowing full well that from the hour when he set foot on Irish soil to the hour when he left ir, his own life would be in the most imminent danger from the knives of the assassins, and knowing, too, that he would be rendering a service to a political party which seemed bent upon ostracising him, and which had just treated him with scant courtesy and fairness."
Mr. P. S. Stevenson, Member for the Eye Division of Suffolk, declares that the agricultural labourers have definite wants which they seek to secure by their votes, and these are the formation of popular local governments and the removal of all restrictions on their purchase or tenancy of land. They seek the reduction of all tenure to fee-simple, but should, Mr. Stevenson thinks, be entitled at present to claim from landlord or farmer one acre for each cottage, at a rent 10 per cent. higher than the usual agri- cultural rent. That is not an immoderate demand ; but then, is that the labourers' desire or is it Mr. Stevenson's translation of mach more vague aspirations? "Lucas Malet," as we have -mentioned elsewhere, sends a readable but hostile sketch of Amiel, whom she despises almost too much to understand, her trenchant criticism that "God and the soul, too, are among the long list of his intellectual amusements" leaving a wholly false impression. She, in fact, unconsciously it may be, contemns meditation, and thinks that every one, what- ever his nature, should not only have intense convictions—which
to some minds is impossible—but should carry them out in act; and the brilliant peroration of her paper may, in fact, be reduced to a line,—" Be thou orthodox, or be Secularist." There are vesting-places—some of them not wholly illogical—between those two points; or at least, there is between them a journey while making which a fixed station cannot be attained. Dr. H. Maudsley, in "Heredity in Health and Disease," pushes his theory of the transmission of qualities to the
verge of absurdity. He says :—" Hence it is that everybody may learn more of the deep foundations of his character—of what he is essentially and is capable of becoming—by the study of his relations, than he will by the most scrupulously minute self-inspection ; for he may observe in one or another of them the full development of what lies dormant in him, hidden and indiscernible—the actual outcome of the deep-lying potentialities of the family stock." "Study your cousins in order to know yourself," is surely an odd order, more especially to those among us who know that the closest relatives, children of the same parents, bred in the same nursery, are often radically different, and this even in constitu- tion. There is a law of heredity, but it cannot be so strong as this quotation would imply without producing a sameness which we do not find, even twins differing from each other at least as often as they show resemblance. Dr. Maudsley himself admits the non-transmission of genius, and quotes the following suggestive explanation of the fact :—
"Dr. Prosper Lucas, whose exhaustive treatise on Heredity has been a rich mine of instruction for subsequent inquirers, went so far as to formulate the proposition that giants in mind, like giants in body, do not propagate themselves, and are generally childless. He laboured, indeed, to prove that there is a law by virtue of which variations, whether of mind or body, that pass to a certain extent beyond the mean, are not inherited, the organic tendency always being to revert to the mean."
That is certainly true of physical qualities, or mankind would contain abnormal races, and it may be true also of the mental. We wonder that inquirers into this subject do not study the dynasties a little more carefully. In them you have often ten, or sometimes twenty, generations of men, every one of whom was closely observed, both by friends and enemies.
The Nineteenth, Century gives us two articles on Ireland, one by Mr. Frank Hill, being a strong and temperate statement not so much of the argument for Federalism, as of the writer's view that Federalism must come. We are not about to discuss it here, but we may make a remark on the curious fact that the writer, like, we think, every one who has discussed the problem from that side, implicitly refuses to England any self- will at all. It is assumed throughout that the strongest State will always follow certain ideas and believe certain dogmas, leading logically to the grant of any terms the sister-Kingdoms may desire. The notion that she can ever feel as the North felt about secession, or as she herself used to feel about rebellion, is put quietly on one side, as outside the discussion. That may
be an accurate judgment of the facts—it probably is accurate for the present moment—but as a historic assumption intended to be true for a century, it is a rather large assumption. Sup- pose England to lose for a moment her rather unusual access of meekness, and to decide that she intends to settle for herself the terms of the connection with her surrounding States without consulting anything except the perfection of the general machine. Suppose, that is, she were governed for a generation by a Pitt, who was also a great soldier. That is improbable ? Possibly ; but though the line of change is not discernible, this assumption of the permanent effacement of England must be more or less unhistorical. Mr. Matthew Arnold's essay, called "The Nadir of Liberalism," is in the main an attack upon Mr. Gladstone, as always victorious but always un- successful,—as, in fact, a great party leader, rather than a statesman. The writer forgets Mr. Gladstone's immense triumphs as a financier, the aid he gave to the emanci- pation of Italy, his success in securing Thessaly for Greece without the expected war, and the results of his entirely original, and, as many people believed, over-pacific, policy towards the United States. We should have said that Mr. Gladstone had been singularly successful, except in the few cases, as Egypt and Ireland, in which he had applied sound maxims to a people
temporarily unfitted for them. We fear we cannot predicate for Mr. Arnold's alternative plan, which is to divide Ireland into three Provinces, any general acceptance. It would not content Ireland, and therefore it would do no good to the United Kingdom, which, nevertheless, it breaks up. In "The Jubilee of the Reform Club,"
Mr. Fraser Rae condescends to rather small detail, and gives 118
little idea of the relation of the Club to the Liberal Party, tln,ugh he disposes en passant of the persistent illusion that the Political Committee of the Club distributes money. It acts, he says, only as a Council of Conciliation. Mr. Proctor sends a speculation on "the origin of comets," some of which, like meteorites, he attributes to the ancient "eruptive energies" of the planetary bodies, while others have been ejected from the stars :—
" We have no means of recognising by its orbital motion a star- expelled comet or meteor flight. But we need not seek for bodies to tell us of expulsion, ages on ages ago. The stars are now in their eunlike state. They must therefore be doing such work now, if there is any truth in the theory to which we have been led. Now there is one of the stars which is near enough to be asked whether it really possesses and uses such expulsive power—our own sun. His answer is unmistakable. In 1872, and at sundry times since, he has been caught in the act of ejecting bodies, probably liquid or solid, through the hydrogen atmosphere around his globe, with velocities so great that the matter thus expelled from his interior can never return to him—the velocities ranging to 450 miles per second at the least. What he is doing now he has doubtless done for millions, nay for tens of millions, of years in the past. What he has thus done, his fellow- sans the stars, thousands (if not millions) of millions in number, have doubtless done also. Uncounted billions then of ejected meteor flights or comets mast be travelling through interstellar spaces, visiting system after system, flitting from sun to sun, in periods to be measured by millions of years."
That is bold theorising ; but at all events it accounts, pending farther evidence, for the phenomena. Only we should like to know why Mr. Proctor thinks that the expulsive energy of a planetary or stellar body is proportioned to size, so that a planet or sun, if it is only big enough, can communicate to the ejected body the almost inconceivable degree of speed necessary to release it from the force of the planet's or sun's attraction. The article in the Nineteenth Century which will, however, attract most attention, if only as a literary curiosity, is one by Mr. Percy M. Wallace, on "Mr. Donnelly's Shakespeare Cipher." Mr. P. M. Wallace asserts that Mr. Ignatius Donnelly, of Minnesota, has discovered absolute proof that Bacon was the author of Shakespeare's plays. This proof consists of a cipher which he has found running through the Folio of 1623, and which, when interpreted, he has found to contain not only a statement that Bacon was the author, but a complete secret history of the later years of Elizabeth. Certain words, pagings, hyphens, brackets, and capitals are deliberately inserted, in order to indicate words in the De Augmentis, which, when put together, make a connected whole. Mr. Donnelly, says Mr. Wallace, is certain of his theory, though he has not yet finished the laborious work of interpretation ; but he is advancing, and will shortly bring his proofs to England, where, no doubt, they will be studied with much interest, if also with much scepticism. Mr. Wallace does not produce any evidence of his marvellous story, except the singular printing of the Folio of 1623, and finds it necessary to enter on a quite needless defence of Mr. Donnelly's good-faith. That is not likely to be ques- tioned. Mr. Donnelly has only to publish his rules, and they will be tested by a hundred minds, quite well-instructed enough to admit that his error, if it be one, is only the fiftieth instance of a fallacy based upon a misreading of a certain number of coincidences.
Sir Charles Gavan Duffy' s opinion of Mr. Gladstone's Home- rule Bill, given in the Contemporary, is, of course, favourable in the main. He would, however, like a separate Upper House, would reduce the number of Members in the Commons to 150, and does not see why the present representatives of Ireland at Westminster should be seated in the first Parliament in Dublin by the Bill. If he were Mr. Parnell, perhaps he would see.
Sir Charles maintains that Ireland will be governed as well as any Colony, his main argument being contained in the following paragraph :—
"There was loud exaltation a few months ago throughout England at the spontaneous loyalty of New South Wales, which despatched an expedition to the Soudan at its proper coat. But who was the prime mover in that proceeding ? The Prime Minister was the Australian son of an Irish Catholic. When an eminent public man, who, like Mr. Chamberlain, came from Birmingham, took exception to the legality of the proceeding, the populace supported it enthusiastically, and in New South Wales every third man is an Irish Catholic. Its moat conspicuous defender was Sir Patrick Jennings, who is now Prime Minister ; a man born and bred in Ulster, but who belongs to the race and religion of the majority of Irishmen. These are facts, I think, calculated to modify Mr. Chamberlain's opinion, and induce him to believe that the maxim, Like case, like rule,' has a world- wide application. But these are not the only facts ; how many Irish regiments fought in the same army with the Australian contingent—
Irish peasants in red coats ? Men of Irish birth or blood have held the supreme offices of government in all the great possessions of the Empire, and I have never heard of any case in which they failed to perform the duties entrusted to them adequately and honourably."
Before we can fully accept those precedents, we must have some explanation of the fact that Irishmen proclaim themselves indifferent to the Empire, and that other Irishmen abroad— namely, Irish-Americans—pay dynamiters. If freedom makes an Irishman friendly, why is Mr. Ford so hostile P Mr. W. T. Stead sings a loud, not to say rhapsodical, hymn to journalism, which he maintains is controlling the Government ; but he fails to convince us either of his facts or their beneficial character. He seems to believe journalists are tree representatives, because every man who buys a paper votes for its Editor ; but in the first place, he ignores the position of the proprietor, who may be selecting his man only to support certain Bonds—a constant feature in Continental journalism—and he forgets that as many people buy a paper to see the other side as buy it to read their own opinions well defended. As a matter of fact, the voters constantly go against the journalists ; and in the next election the majority may possibly vote against their nearly unanimous opinion. And it is best it should be so ; for besides the fact that the most successful journalists are usually critics of politics rather than of statesmen, they are of necessity irresponsible, are liable to orders from proprietors who may be seeking nothing but gain, and are compelled by the conditions of their trade to scream out immature judgments, formed without time for reflection, or even investigation of the facts. We do not believe that irresponsible word-spinners, seldom independent of con- cealed capitalists, and never independent of the momentary favour of a news-seeking class, can be a good governing oody, and should regard the supersession of Parliament by them, to which Mr. Stead looks forward, as proof of national decadence and coming ruin. Even Mr. Stead admits that, under the regime of the journalist, intrigue does not cease :—
"I remember on one occasion being confidentially approached by a permanent official who holds a high place in an important depart- ment. He was a personal friend, and he spoke freely. He wanted me to write an article praising a certain Act connected with his department, against which some interested clamour was being raised.
Why just now ?' I asked.-4 To stiffen the back of my chief,' he replied. He does not want to surrender, but he needs backing trp,, and if you could see your way to publish a rouser, he would pluck up courage enough to pat his foot down.'—As I wanted him to pat his foot down, I wrote the rouser,' and soon afterwards had the satisfaction of knowing that it had had the desired effect. The Minister knew nothing of the communication that had been made to me; but without that communication, and the action which followed, he would have given way, and mischief, which he regarded even more seriously than I did, would have ensued, specially affecting the department for which he was answerable."
In other words, a responsible Minister skulked from his duty till cheated by an Editor into a belief that the public wanted him to do it. That is the way Kings are managed in Asia by their Ministers, and it is not very successful. M. H. Baudril- lart sends a paper of some value and much good writing on "Peasant Property in France," in which he certainly shows that the petite culture was not due to the Revolution, before which there were four millions of landowners in France. He also proves that the increase of production on the small pro- perties is very considerable ; bat we do not quite follow his argument as to the increase of selling value. The value of small properties has, it appears, tripled since 1821, while that of large properties has only doubled. That may be true, but may be due, as in Ireland and Bengal, not to increased productiveness, but to increased competition. M. Baudrillart maintains that the peasant is fairly well off, and is distinctly attached to the existing social order. There is no agrarian question in France any more than in England :—
" Peace, profound peace, reigns in the country. There has been no troubling of the harmony between landowners and farmers in conse- quence of the exactions of the former when the competition for farms was keenest, nor yet any when times changed, and the landlord was forced to reduce his rents. In the same way, the difficulties between the farmers and the labourers who demanded higher Wages have never got beyond the stage of complaint and recrimination."
The paper, in its extreme moderation, is well worth study. Mr. Holman Hunt sends the second part of his autobiographical essay, which gives a fresh impression of his sincerity and devotion to his art, but is not otherwise so interesting as the part describing the beginning of the pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. The first of Mr. Hunt's pictures hung on the line at the Academy, and, indeed, the first fully recognised by the artists, was "The Hireling Shepherd," after the appearance of which his difficulties compara- tively ended. Before it was accepted, however, Mr. Hunt was reduced to such straits that, as he gratefully records, he was only able to continue painting through a loan from Millais, who placed at his disposal his whole savings, £500.

Warning About Dirty Bits Not As Good As Blocking Dirty Bits
by John Pescatore | October 9, 2009 | 1 Comment
Comcast announced that its Internet service customers would get free "Constant Guard Security Program" features, which basically means McAfee software for their desktops and a Comcast browser toolbar that ties in anti-spyware and phishing alerting from CA.
Now, this is better than Comcast doing nothing, but it basically means Comcast will carry the malware all the way to their customers PCs and then make it easier for those infected customers to fix their now dangerous PCs. I would have liked this announcement a whole lot better if Comcast also announced how part of Constant Guard was a investment in Comcast's ability to detect and filter a much higher percentage of malware before it gets to their customers.
Not pretending any carrier could stop everything – but, as I said before, in the real world quality improvements come from pushing quality upstream, not by removing defects downstream.

September 2019 Sugar Land Rent Report
Welcome to the September 2019 Sugar Land Rent Report. Sugar Land rents increased over the past month. In this report, we'll evaluate trends in the Sugar Land rental market, including comparisons to cities throughout the metro, state, and nation.
Sugar Land rents increase sharply over the past month
Sugar Land rents have increased 1.0% over the past month, but have decreased slightly by 0.4% in comparison to the same time last year. Currently, median rents in Sugar Land stand at $1,287 for a one-bedroom apartment and $1,575 for a two-bedroom. This is the third straight month that the city has seen rent increases after a decline in May. Sugar Land's year-over-year rent growth lags the state average of 1.6%, as well as the national average of 1.5%.
Rents rising across the Houston Metro
While rent prices have decreased in Sugar Land over the past year, the rest of the metro is seeing the opposite trend. Rents have risen in 8 of the largest 10 cities in the Houston metro for which we have data. Here's a look at how rents compare across some of the largest cities in the metro.
- Sugar Land has seen rents fall by 0.4% over the past year, the biggest drop in the metro. It's also the most expensive city in the Houston metro with a two-bedroom median of $1,575.
- Conroe has seen the fastest rent growth in the metro, with a year-over-year increase of 3.0%. The median two-bedroom there costs $1,105, while one-bedrooms go for $903.
- Pasadena has the least expensive rents in the Houston metro, with a two-bedroom median of $1,011; rents were up 0.2% over the past month and 1.0% over the past year.
Many large cities nationwide show more affordable rents compared to Sugar Land
As rents have fallen slightly in Sugar Land, many large cities nationwide have seen prices increase, in some cases substantially. Compared to most large cities across the country, Sugar Land is less affordable for renters.
- Other cities across the state have seen rents slightly increase, with Texas as a whole logging rent growth of 1.6% over the past year. For example, rents have grown by 3.2% in Austin, 2.3% in San Antonio, and 2.0% in Dallas.
- Sugar Land's median two-bedroom rent of $1,575 is above the national average of $1,191. Nationwide, rents have grown by 1.5% over the past year compared to the 0.4% decline in Sugar Land.
- While rents in Sugar Land fell slightly over the past year, many cities nationwide saw increases, including Phoenix (+3.7%), New York (+1.7%), and DC (+1.5%).
- Renters will generally find more expensive prices in Sugar Land than most large cities. For example, Memphis has a median 2BR rent of $832, where Sugar Land is nearly twice that price.

Methodology - Recent Updates:
Data from private listing sites, including our own, tends to skew toward luxury apartments, which introduces sample bias when estimates are calculated directly from these listings. To address these limitations, we've recently made major updates to our methodology, which we believe have greatly improved the accuracy and reliability of our estimates.
Read more about our new methodology below, or see a more detailed post here.
Apartment List is committed to making our rent estimates the best and most accurate available. To do this, we start with reliable median rent statistics from the Census Bureau, then extrapolate them forward to the current month using a growth rate calculated from our listing data. In doing so, we use a same-unit analysis similar to Case-Shiller's approach, comparing only units that are available across both time periods to provide an accurate picture of rent growth in cities across the country.
Our approach corrects for the sample bias inherent in other private sources, producing results that are much closer to statistics published by the Census Bureau and HUD. Our methodology also allows us to construct a picture of rent growth over an extended period of time, with estimates that are updated each month.
Read more about our methodology here.
About Rent Reports:
Apartment List publishes monthly reports on rental trends for hundreds of cities across the U.S. We intend these reports to be a source of reliable information that help renters and policymakers make sound decisions, and we invest significant time and effort in gathering and analyzing rent data. Our work is covered regularly by journalists across the country.
We are continuously working to improve our methodology and data, with the goal of providing renters with the information that they need to make the best decisions.
