Portugal are about to embark on the upcoming European Championships in France and hopes are high across the country. An exciting squad spearheaded by Champions League winner Cristiano Ronaldo have been tipped by many to reach the latter stages of the tournament.
VAVEL spoke to Tom Kundert regarding the country's chances at this summer's European Championships. Tom Kundert is an established freelance journalist that specialises in Portuguese football having written for publications such as FourFourTwo, the Guardian, MailOnline, ESPN and many more.
Hello Tom and thank you for agreeing to answer our questions regarding Portugal! We have heard from managers and players say that they believe that Portugal can go all the way in France, where do you think this belief comes from?
"Portugal have a good mix of veterans who have vast experience at the very top of the game (Ronaldo, Ricardo Carvalho, Pepe) and exciting young players who are coming off excellent seasons (João Mário, Danilo, Raphael Guerreiro).
"Coach Fernando Santos has shown intelligence in gradually ushering in a brilliant new generation of players alongside proven performers. After taking the reins of the national team following the disappointing World Cup in Brazil and the shock defeat against Albania in Euro 2016 qualifying, he guided the team to seven victories in all seven of the remaining qualifiers."
Despite getting off to a poor start, Portugal navigated their qualifying group having just dropped three points! How vital will this momentum be going into the opening match with a confident Iceland side?
"It should give the team real confidence. It is actually a record run of consecutive victories (seven) for Portugal in competitive matches. In addition, under Santos the Seleção beat both Argentina and Italy for the first time in over 40 years."
The Portuguese have been training without talisman Cristiano Ronaldo due to his commitments with Real Madrid and played Norway without him on Sunday, do you think this experience will benefit the rest of the squad and give other players an opportunity to show what they can do? I notice that Éder and Quaresma have been impressing thus far.
"Ronaldo will naturally come straight into the team as soon as he links up with the squad. I think the biggest benefit of his enforced absence is linked to the perception of Portugal from outside and even within the squad. Portugal have a significant number of highly talented players emerging, meaning they can build a very strong team without the captain and not be as reliant on him as they have been in the past."
How will Santos utilise his team in these friendlies with his 23-man squad already chosen?
"There are plenty of question marks as regards the starting line-up he will use against Iceland. Who will occupy both full-back positions are uncertain, as is the make-up of midfield, where Santos has an array of high quality options. One or two stand-out performances in the pre-tournament friendlies may be enough for certain players to earn a place in the team."
Portugal are in a group they might be expected to win but face tough opposition in the form of Austria, Iceland and Hungary. Are the native's confident of advancing through the group, are the press hyping up their chances?
"Most expect Portugal to have a positive tournament, but few expect them to win it."
"There is a mood of cautious optimism rather than much hype surrounding the team. People are aware Portugal are going through a transitional phase, but results since Fernando Santos took over and the emergence of several top quality players – many coming off fabulous club seasons – have certainly raised expectations. Most expect Portugal to have a positive tournament, but few expect them to win it."
People often talk about the Portuguese forward's lack of goals to support Cristiano Ronaldo, will Santos' side still be heavily reliant on the Real Madrid man and is it a concern for you?
"Not so much as in previous tournaments. Opposition teams will obviously be focused on stopping Ronaldo, and Portugal now have several highly talented players who could benefit from the extra space afforded."
This could be Ronaldo's last European Championships, just how motivated do you think he will be for the finals having never won a major honour with his country? Does the lack of success at international level bother him?
"He's often said winning silverware with Portugal is the one thing that is lacking in his career, so yes, he is extremely motivated to do well in the tournament, quite apart from his well-known obsession to go down as one of football's all-time greats: something that would obviously gain greater unanimity if he helped Portugal win a tournament for the first time."
The squad seems to harbour the correct balance between youth and experience. Is this the most exciting squad you've seen in a while and how important will that experience be in France?
"It's the strongest squad since Euro 2004 and the 2006 World Cup."
"I'd say it's the strongest squad since Euro 2004 and the 2006 World Cup. Competition for places is fierce and as you say and as mentioned above, there is a healthy mix of ages among the 23-man squad. This is exemplified by the fact that this squad contains the oldest ever outfield player to represent Portugal in a major tournament, Ricardo Carvalho, and the youngest ever, Renato Sanches."
Most know the quality of Portugal's youth teams, with the U17 team recently winning their own European Championships, what measures have the FPF put in place to obtain a talented crop of youngsters and how much does Santos deserve credit for giving these players a chance?
"Santos deserves credit for doing exactly what he said he'd do when he took over, which was to give every player who was eligible to play for Portugal a chance. He called up over 50 players in his first year alone. This has led to healthy competition for places and viable options in every position on the pitch.
"One hugely beneficial change in terms of youth development which took place a few years ago was the creation of the B-teams for the biggest clubs, which play in Portugal's second tier. This has enabled young promising players to get regular playing time in a competitive environment and at a decent level."
Santos has plenty of talented players at his disposal so, with only Rui Patrício and Nani playing every minute in qualifying, are there any certainties when it comes to his starting XI?
"Barring injury, goalkeeper Rui Patrício, centre-backs Pepe and Ricardo Carvalho, midfielder João Moutinho and forwards Ronaldo and Nani are pretty much certainties."
The player that grabbed the headlines when the squad was announced was, of course, the highly-rated Renato Sanches! You have obviously seen him represent Benfica throughout the season, is his place in the squad justified and just how talented is the midfielder?
"His impact at Benfica was astonishing for an 18-year-old. He has incredible strength, stamina and maturity for such a young player, and for around three months he completely galvanised the team. It's very likely Benfica would not have been champions if he hadn't come into the side.
"Having said that, his form dropped off in the last couple of months of the season, and he probably wouldn't have made the squad if Bernardo Silva had not got injured. He doesn't have the same level of technique or creativity as Portugal's best midfielders (e.g. João Mário, André Gomes) but he has fantastic dynamism and if he makes an impact at Bayern Munich you would expect him to quickly become a regular for Portugal."
There have been a few injuries for Portugal prior to the start of the tournament, notably in the form of Bernardo Silva, Danny and Coentrão, how damaging will these absences be to the country's chances?
"Coentrão is the only one of the three who would have been a definite starter if fit, so you cannot deny that his absence is a blow. Bernardo Silva also has a unique skillset which could have been very useful to Portugal, so his injury, while not devastating, makes the squad as a whole less formidable in my opinion."
Coentrao could be replaced in the XI by an attacking Raphael Guerreiro, what role do full-backs play for this team?
"Embarrassment of riches in midfield."
"Portugal's traditional formation is 4-3-3 but Santos is imposing a 4-4-2 because of the embarrassment of riches in midfield and the lack of a quality centre-forward. None of the midfielders likely to be used play as a traditional winger, so both full-backs will be expected to play a prominent role in Portugal's attacking play to give the team width when going forward."
Can you please explain how can we expect Portugal to line-up this summer? What style of football to they play and what kind of tactics does Santos implement? What must they change/continue doing to get far in the tournament?
"I think Santos will opt for the following line-up: Patrício; Vieirinha, Pepe, Ricardo Carvalho, Eliseu; Danilo, João Moutinho, João Mário, André Gomes; Nani, Ronaldo.
"The coach has said Portugal will not play with a fixed striker, but rather a mobile front two. Sounds good in theory, but difficult to pull off in practice. Éder and Quaresma off the bench may have important roles to play if Portugal are to go far."
One final question on Portugal, can they win it?!
"It's football, and if Greece (much to Portugal's dismay!) and Denmark can win it, Portugal can too. That said, a run to the semi-finals will be considered a success. Look out for this Portugal team in Russia. It's packed with exciting young players who are yet to hit their peak."
How did you get into journalism and how important do you think it is to have a niche in this industry?
"I'd say it's vital to have a niche and make yourself an expert in that particular area so you can offer something unique and a certain amount of authority. That's how I got into journalism at least, by focusing 100% on Portuguese football, with one thing leading to another."
Thank you for your time, Tom.

The Food and Drug Administration was given permission by Congress in 2010 to regulate practices on farms across the nation. Now small farms, many of whom use organic farming techniques, are finding that the methods they have been using for years, including spreading house-made fertilizers, tilling their farmland with grazing animals, and irrigating with water from open creeks, are coming under assault.
Continue reading «FDA RULES THREATEN ORGANIC FARMERS»
In 2011, 33 people died across the nation from eating tainted cantaloupes, which triggered the FDA to be more aggressive in pursuing its supervision of farms.
Dave Runsten, policy director for Community Alliance with Family Farmers in Davis, Calif., said, "They are going to drive farms out of business. The consumer groups behind this don't understand farming. They talk out of both sides of their mouth. They demand these one-size-fits-all regulations, then say, 'I don't want to hurt those cute little farmers at the farmers market. I shop at the farmers market.' It is frustrating."
It doesn't help the FDA's case when they sound out-of-touch; just recently Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) chastised Michael Taylor, a deputy commissioner with the FDA, noting that one draft set of rules from the FDA wrote that kale is "never consumed raw." She responded, "I was going to offer to make a kale salad for you. It causes you to wonder if those who are writing these rules have ever set foot on a farm."
But Caroline Smith DeWaal, food safety director at the Center for Science in the Public Interest in Washington, had a different view, saying, "We don't believe large facilities are the only place where outbreaks are happening." She noted that farm-to-fork growers need to see that E. coli and other bacteria are a danger to their produce just as much as they are to the produce of giant processing plants. She added, "At the end of the day, consumers will be paying a little bit more for this. But a few cents here may help avoid a severe illness."
Meanwhile, examples abound of farms losing business as a result of the FDA's rules; Don Bessemer, the owner of the last working farm in Akron, Ohio, which had fed locals for 117 years, gave up, and 30 workers lost their jobs. Bessemer commented to the Akron Beacon Journal that he would fight pests and even drought, but not bureaucrats.
Taylor pointed out that the FDA is softening its stance; and added that thousands of the smallest farms would be exempt from new inspections.

I honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, author Teri Woods attended the second annual "Face My Abuse" walk, last weekend, to share her own experiences with abuse.
In discussing her reason to support Jacqueline Rowe and her foundation, Woods said, "Well I think what Jackie is doing is really inspiring, and, any time I can lend a hand and come out and share my story or share anything that's happened to me, that's helped empower me, and to overcome situations that I've been in with domestic violence then I like to try to help out."
On whether she plans to write about her experience with domestic violence, "I'm in the process of writing an autobiography just in general," Woods adds. "My autobiography is more based on my story and my journey. However, there is a part of a chapter that does go into that relationship, that I had, that was very unhealthy"
When asked about whether she has any new books in the works, "My last book that came out was called "Alibi" part 2," Woods continued. "Then the last book my publishing company put out was "New York's Finest." The only thing that we're doing right now is, we're revamping The "True To The Game" collections, the "Dutch" collections, the "Alibi" collections. This is actually the twentieth anniversary of "True To The Game."
On whether we'll ever get a "True To The Game" movie — something her fans have asked about for years. "You know, I'm very concerned. I'm really concerned. I think there's just a tide out there that's preventing not just me but my peers. I would have felt a little bit better about this if I saw "Let That Be The Reason", "A Hustler's Wife", or even a Wahida Clark book made at this point. I mean, none of us is gonna get a deal, really?"
"For me to have the body of work that I have and for me to know that my other peers and other authors, out there, have struggled and done all of this, it hurts the heart. We should have been made one by now."
"I'm starting to think that what I'm actually gonna do is, if it's really gonna happen, it's actually gonna be an independent movement and I'm gonna have to figure out a way to get independent financing and make it happen and figure out how we're gonna distribute it when we're done."
Check out more of the interview with Woods below.


text: Hi. I am rather new to this board, and I posted about my son on the general page, and someone told me I should post my info on this forum, as someone here may be able to help answer some of my questions. First off, my difficult child is 6 yo. He was diagnosed by a child psychologist at XXX, at age 4. On my side there is a history of depression and anxiety. husband says he was much like difficult child is now, but back then they didn't know alot about mood disorders, and he has never been officially diagnosed. My difficult child will not listen, even to the simplest instructions, and will hit, punch, or kick his brother even without provocation. He has now been suspended 4 times from school, the first time for walking off school property, the second time for pushing his teacher and kicking a sub principal who was pregnant, the third time again for hitting and kicking. At this point I removed him from the school, as they seemed to want to believe my son was solely to blame for what was happening, and that they bear no responsibility. the last time he was suspended there, it was because kids in his math group called him stupid and his teacher wouldn't do anything. So he wouldn't go back in that group and it escalated from there. We changed him to his current school, where things were going ok. His teacher and I have an open line of communication via email, and his principal checks with him daily. There were instances of him walking away, and arguing, but they were ok with working around it as best they could ie if he wanted to draw while the others where doing P.E. he could sit where the teacher could see him and draw. A week ago last friday, he had a sub for the third day in a row. About 30 before school was out, the sub was going to pass something out to the class, and he didn't want her to. After a bit of fighting, the sub sent a student to get the principal. (her first mistake) difficult child grabbed the little girl by the wrist and would not let her go. At this point the sub made her second mistake and sent ANOTHER child for the principal. As with the first, difficult child grabbed and wouldn't let go. When the principal arrived, she helped the little girl and then told difficult child to follow her to her office. He said he would not and was going to throw a toy at her. He did and she took it and walked to her office. He followed her, yelling at her and pulling her arm trying to get the car. When they arrived at the office an aide called me, and I could hear him screaming in the background as the principal asked me to come get him. When I arrived, she and an aide had him restrained on the floor and he was yelling and screaming. The principals arm was pink from him grabbing her. Apparently he also scratched her but I did not see those. She told me he was going to be suspended for a week pending a ARP (Administrative Review Panel) to decide if he can even come back. Although both she and his teacher are requesting they DO NOT remove him from the school. Well, we got the paperwork for the ARP on Fri, and it is not until the 29th. So essentially, my difficult child is suspended for 3 weeks, not just 1. I plan to contact the principal on Monday and let her know I do not find this acceptable as not only was this partially caused by them and their not judging the situation correctly, but he is being suspended for some scratched and what is basically an Indian burn. I understand he was violent, but it stemed from their actions. If ther teacher wanted the principal maybe SHE should have gotten her. After doing some late night research this weekend, I found the names of a few child psychologists in my area who specialize in this and after showing them to my son there is one he really wants to meet. So I will be calling her in the morning to see if I can set up an appoinment for them to meet. What I need to know is, is there anything I should get/ask from her to help me with the IEP, besides a written record of his diagnosis? I saw the post on here for the parent report, and am beginning to work on that, I am just wondering what else I need to get this going. TIA for any help you can give!

Some architectural historians consider the Minimal Traditional style like the Webster to be descended from the earlier English cottage. But for the flattened roof pitch it's easy to see the similarity. Others consider it to be a descendent of the Colonial Revival. Regardless of its antecedents, it's easy to see the seeds of the later tract-style ranch in both layouts.

The Wooden Spoon Bread Book
(Critical Survey of Contemporary Fiction)
Do you want to bake your own bread but feel overwhelmed by the mysteries of yeast, the multiplicity of flours, and a busy schedule? Have you tired of making the same few types of bread week after week? Having mastered a variety of breads, would you like to know how to create your own recipes? Whether one is a novice or a veteran baker, THE WOODEN SPOON BREAD BOOK will be a welcome guest in the kitchen.
Moore begins by explaining the basic ingredients, equipment, and methods every bread maker should understand. For the first-time baker, she then presents what she calls "The Learning Loaf," a simple, good-tasting confidence builder. More experienced cooks--or adventurous beginners-- may prefer to start with one of Moore's twelve favorites, which include such standards as the baguette, sourdough bread, and bran muffins, as well as exotics such as fresh tomato bread.
Realizing that all these recipes may tempt one to overproduce, Moore devotes a chapter to uses for leftovers. The prospect of Creole brandied bread pudding and Dutch cottage cobbler may have one actually hoping for unfinished loaves.
Complementing all these bread recipes are instructions for making closely related items--doughnuts, coffee cakes, pancakes, waffles--and a short chapter at the end of the book presents simple jams, jellies, and syrups. Helpful are a bibliography and a selection of addresses from which to order unusual ingredients and equipment.
Clear, simple, yet comprehensive, Moore's work is an ideal first bread book or a good addition to a collection.

How do readers think T.Ray changed when August told Lily about how much he used to love her mother?
- print Print
- list Cite
T.Ray himself does not change when August tells Lily about how much he used to love her mother - it's Lily who changes. She comes away from this conversation with a new understanding of her father and a much more sympathetic view. She realizes she is not the only one who has felt a hole in her heart due to her mother's absence; he, too, has felt the hole.
When he comes looking for her at the Boatwrights' home with plans to bring her back with him, Lily sees his pain - especially when he notices the pin she is wearing, which he gave to Deborah many years ago, and he begins to call Lily by her mother's name. He insists that this time, she's coming home with him. Both Lily and the reader see his desperation, feel his sense of loss from all those years ago, and realize the anger and abandonment he felt when Deborah left him, with no idea where she had gone to.
This new understanding of T. Ray does not excuse the way he treated Lily for all those years, but it does EXPLAIN his behavior. He became a hardened and bitter man after Deborah left him, and he took much of this out on Lily. As her father, he should have nurtured, supported, and loved her, and there is truly no excuse for his physical, verbal, and emotional abuse. Lily has every right to want a new life elsewhere, apart from her father. But, having called him "daddy" to break through to him when he mistakenly believes she is Deborah, we can assume they both walk away from the incident changed. Lily has a new sympathy for her father and an ability to forgive him for past wrongs; he, perhaps, can finally have some sense of closure on this part of his life and finally make a new and happier start.

Jessica Mauboy knows a thing or two about a style evolution. The confident, sassy woman we are used to seeing up on stage is a far cry from the shy, reserved teenager introduced to us way back in the 2006 season of Australian Idol. Gone is that cutesy, girl next door persona; instead, replaced by a mature and captivating Mauboy, who isn't afraid to push the boundaries.
MORE: Steal Her Style: Nicole Richie
Whilst her incredible voice has always been her trademark, it's her recent style choices that have really elevated Mauboy onto our sartorial radar. Mauboy has (smartly) found herself in some very good company, with Josh Goot, Toni Maticevski and Alex Perry just a few of the Australian designers who have dressed the pop princess for various premiers, performances or editorial shoots. This essentially ensures that Mauboy's red carpet game is flawless, as she consistently looks amazing in everything from bright statement pieces, to structured minimalism, and girly, glamorous gowns. And there is nothing better than a gorgeous Aussie girl rocking Aussie designers, with Mauboy being the perfect poster girl for representing our down under designers.
Mauboy knows the secret to dressing down as well, however, and it's all about the accessories. A statement pair of sunglasses are every girl's best friend, whether you team them with the classic jeans and shirt combo (round lenses preferable), or add some va va voom to your slouchy airport transit style with white, bright cat eyes. A great pair of sunglasses can really bring a whole outfit together, and by mixing your styles up, you are guaranteed to create a new look each and every time. The Louis Vuitton backpack Mauboy totes around probably doesn't hurt either, and goes a long way in explaining the wide smile that accompanies each outfit. We'd be grinning all the time too if our accessories were so luxe!
MORE: Steal Her Style: Karlie Kloss
Need any more convincing Mauboy is your 2015 style spirit animal? She has just gone and done what we've all been wanting to do this summer – chopped off her flowing, long locks in favour of the haircut of the year; the bob. It's one of the most significant parts of Mauboy's style transformation, and really signifies her coming of age and new found sophistication. It also cements her status as 'Woman With Most Enviable Hair In Australia' which goes nicely alongside her other title; 'Woman Whose Wardrobe We Would Most Likely Want To Raid.'
MORE: The Haircut You Need Right Now
It would appear as though Mauboy is just getting started, fashionably speaking. Her style instincts are daring, yet still chic, and her fun fashion attitude is something we could all use a little bit more of. Plus, her ability to make any outfit infinitely cooler with the right pair of sunglasses is a much desired skill. Move over girl next door, Jessica Mauboy has graduated to style queen.

This was just posted in the Footprint Press newsletter
No Trespassing at Big Falls & Deer Lick Falls - South of Zoar Valley
The Nature Sanctuary Society of Western New York, Inc. recently purchased a tract of land that includes Big Falls on South Branch Cattaraugus Creek in the Town of Persia, Cattaraugus County, NY. According to Richard Rosche, president of the Nature Sanctuary Society, this piece of land has for many years been over-used and abused beyond its limits, as the site of wild parties, pot smoking, drug use, swimming and all sorts of other illegal activity. Therefore, visitation to the newly acquired Nature Sanctuary Society property which includes Big Falls is now limited to those carrying current membership cards indicating that they are members of the Nature Sanctuary Society of Western New York, Inc. Group visitation will be limited to those groups who have made prior arrangements with the Preserve Custodian or a Society Officer to be there and their goals and activities MUST be compatible with those of the Society. At least one member of the group must possess a current membership card. Local law enforcement will charge anyone found on the property, without the membership cards, with criminal trespass charges and they will have to appear in the Persia Town Court and pay a fine.
Membership in the Society is open to all those who are sympathetic to the goals and aims of the organization. Membership dues are $10.00 per year per family/address. Contact Richard C. Rosche, President, Nature Sanctuary Society of Western New York, Inc., 110 Maple Rd., East Aurora, NY 14052,
(716) 652-8409, firstname.lastname@example.com.
Likewise, Patrick McGlew, Niagara Frontier Project Director for The Nature Conservancy, states that Deer Lick Falls is also on private property. The Nature Conservancy does not want people trespassing to visit Deer Lick Falls .
Big Falls (The Falls) is described as a creekwalk in "200 Waterfalls in Central & Western New York - A Finders' Guide" on pages 175-180 (depending on the edition you reference). You can still creekwalk up the South Branch Cattaraugus Creek, Simply view Deer Lick Falls (a portion of it) from the creek, then turn around, to stay on DEC property and avoid arrest.

What are we to expect of the new financial regulator in the UK - The FCA?
A good level of basic competence must be a given. If we want them to prevent the type of fiasco that helped cause the 2008 crash, we need them to be at least awake on the job.
Late last week we sent a notification to them that a website was offering financial promotions without FCA approval. This is in most circumstances contrary to the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. It was in this case.
The reply we had is copied below
After reviewing the firms website, I can inform you that there are circumstances where unauthorised persons are communicating financial promotions to clients in the UK which will be governed by the financial promotions order under section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the Act).
Section 21 (2) of the Act sets out the circumstances in which an unauthorised person can communicate financial promotions as set out in our handbook in PERG 8.9.1.
This is on the basis that the information has been checked and approved by an authorised person.
If you have evidence that this is not the case you should let me know and I will refer it to the appropriate team within the FCA.
The firms website seems to indicate that their financial promotion has been approved by Crowe Clarke Whitehall.
Firstly this reply gets the name of FCA approval firm completely wrong - it should be Crowe Clark Whitehill. The company mentioned in the reply does not exist.
Secondly Crowe Clark Whitehill has not approved this site's promotion. They did approve a promotion by a company with the same name in 2012, as the current site now rather sneakily points out. This was under a different set of rules as set out by the then FSA (now the FCA). Since then the site has changed and is now run by a company of the same name, incorporated in the Cayman Islands and run out of London. It has no approval from any UK authorised FCA accredited company - according to the FCA Register. This is why we sent the notification to the FCA in the first instance.
All the information is on the FCA's own register so it shouldnt have been too difficult to check it. Clearly for this particular employee, it was.
It doesnt bode too well for the future if they cant get something this simple right.

E3: Resident Evil 6 peers, melees in new preview
By News Division On June 4, 2012 · In Betas, News, Playstation 3, Retail, Systems, Xbox 360
Capcom Co. this week demonstrated a new in-game preview of Resident Evil 6 at the Electronic Entertainment Expo.
The preview included the China level with Leon Kennedy. New actions include the ability to roll to evade bullet fire, peer around walls to fire or grenade, and new melee options to stab or punch zombies in close-quarter combat.
The final sequence included a number of quick-time events to maneuver a helicopter that subsequently collides with a building infested with zombies.
The graphics engine held at 30 frames-per-second with impressive lighting effects, a horde of individual zombies, and a mass of environmental destruction.
Resident Evil 6, to be sold Oct. 2, will feature a single-player and co-op campaign mode to include Leon S. Kennedy and Chris Redfield, in addition to new characters in a dramatic global horror crisis.
In a multi-story arc, Leon S. Kennedy confronts an infected President of the United States, while Chris Redfield arrives in China under the threat of a bioterrorist attack.
New features in Resident Evil 6 include play between three main characters, Leon S. Kennedy, Chris Redfiend, and Jake Muller. Each character will have a unique gameplay tone.
In addition, the title will include single-player or co-op play offline or online.
Zombies can now run, jump, and use weapons, while new enemies called the Chrysalide can undergo a full metamorphosis to spawn new monsters.
The Resident Evil video game franchise has sold more than 47 million copies worldwide to date. The live action movies have grossed more than $525 million in global markets.

text: ALK Expression is a Rare Finding in Mycosis FungoidesCovington, Morgan BA*; Cassarino, David MD, PhD†; Abdulla, Farah MD*The American Journal of Dermatopathology: May 2017 - Volume 39 - Issue 5 - p 342–343 doi: 10.1097/DAD.0000000000000717 Original Study Abstract Author Information Abstract: Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Although indolent in its early stages, MF is more aggressive in advanced stages, particularly if large cell transformation occurs. Histologically, transformed MF is similar to primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (pcALCL) and nodal ALCL (nALCL). MF had not been associated with immunohistochemical expression of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) until we previously reported a case documenting the presence of ALK by immunohistochemistry in a patient with stage IA MF and concurrent nALCL. This is a unique finding due to the fact that ALK positivity is usually found in nALCL. The goal of this study is to examine the extent to which ALK may be expressed in the different morphologic lesions of MF. One hundred three biopsies from 96 patients, including the patient from the original case, with confirmed MF representing various lesion stages and subtypes, were tested for ALK by immunohistochemical staining. Out of the 103 biopsies, only the original index case of Stage IA MF with concurrent nALCL expressed ALK. From these results, we conclude that ALK is not routinely present in MF in any lesion stage or variant type. Routine staining of ALK is therefore of no additional benefit for the workup of known early stage MF; however, its use may be beneficial in the initial workup of unspecified large cell lymphomas of the skin. *Department of Dermatology, University of Chicago Hospital Medical Center, CA, IL; and †Department of Pathology, Southern Permanente Medical Group, LA, CA.

Arthur Ashe's Death
- Arthur Ashe
- Tennis
- July 10, 1943
- February 6, 1993
- AIDS / Pneumonia
The life and death of Arthur Ashe:
He was a tennis great who spent his final years trying to teach others about the disease that would claim him. Arthur Ashe won three Grand Slam titles and was ranked as one of the best tennis players in the U.S.
He was the first black ever selected to the U.S. Davis Cup team and was the only black man to win the singles title at the U.S. Open, the Australian Open and Wimbledon.
He was born in Richmond, Virginia to Arthur Ashe Sr. and Mattie Cunningham Ashe. When Arthur was only six years old his mother died from complications related to a toxemic pregnancy, which is now called pre-eclampsia. Ashe and his younger brother Johnnie were raised by their father, a handyman who also worked for Richmond's recreation department.
Because of Arthur's slim build, his father banned him from playing football, which is what many of Arthur's peers were doing. However, the family lived on the grounds of Richmond's biggest blacks-only playground and it had a tennis court. So that's where Arthur set his sights.
He continued playing tennis in high school and accepted an offer to play tennis in St. Louis. So Arthur moved there and attended Sumer High School. Ashe started to get attention from Sports Illustrated, which happened again several times in his career.
He was awarded a tennis scholarship to UCLA and won the NCAA singles title in 1965. He also joined ROTC, which required him to join active military service in exchange for tuition money. Arthur joined the Army in 1966, was commissioned as a second lieutenant and was assigned to the U.S Military Academy at West Point – where he headed the tennis program. In 1969, his Army tour was up and Arthur was discharged.
Ashe won the US open in 1968, the Australian open in 1970 and the Wimbledon singles in 1975, beating Jimmy Connors.
When his tennis career ended in 1980, Arthur wrote for Time Magazine and did some commentary for ABC Sports. He also won election to the International Tennis Hall of Fame in 1985 and was active in the civil rights movement, joining the anti-apartheid fight in South Africa.
Ashe was married to Jeanne Moutoussamy – a photographer - and they adopted a daughter whom they named Camera, after Mom's profession.
Surprisingly for an athlete who'd always been physically fit, Arthur suffered a heart attack in 1979. And in the early 1980's, he contracted HIV from a blood transfusion that he received during heart bypass surgery.
He revealed his illness in April 1992 and began working to teach others about HIV and AIDS. He recorded this message shortly before his death.
Arthur Ashe died of AIDS related pneumonia. Over 6000 mourners attended his funeral at the Arthur Ashe Athletic Center in Richmond. He's buried next to his mother in Woodland Cemetery in Richmond.
He's remembered as a tennis great. The U.S. Open is played every year at New York City's Arthur Ashe Stadium.

In memory of 16 year-old Dwayne Jones who became homeless at age 12 and was murdered on July 22, 2013 in St.James, J-FLAG has published a policy brief on LGBT homelessness in Jamaica.
In a newspaper article published June 13, 2014, Member of Parliament for South East St. Andrew and State Minister in the Ministry of Science, Technology, Energy and Mining, Hon. Julian Robinson said there was a need to help homeless gays in his constituency as they have gained national and international attention. J-FLAG is imploring Minister Julian Robinson and local authorities to develop programmes that will address this issue in his constituency, where a large number of homeless LGBT persons have taken refuge.
We are also urging the Ministry of Local Government and Community Development to develop a Homelessness Policy based on its preliminary work done to date and the recommendations made in this brief, chief among which is the implementation of an inclusive, non-discriminatory programme for all persons who are homeless.

Community service revoked for repeat offender
Just four days after being ordered to perform community service for committing drug offences, Manningham Decourcey Belgrave was back before the court today facing similar charges.
Last Friday, the Horse Hill, St Joseph resident appeared in the District 'A' Traffic Court and pleaded guilty to charges of possession, trafficking and intent to supply 16.4 grammes of cannabis.
At that time, Magistrate Graveney Bannister ordered him to perform 220 hours of community service and adjourned the matter until June 30.
However, when Belgrave returned before him and confessed to three similar offences committed today, as well as having a drug problem, the magistrate revoked his community service and remanded him to the Psychiatric Hospital for assessment and evaluation.
He will return to court on May 5 when he will be sentenced. Police saw Belgrave at Dover, Christ Church earlier today, standing in a group of people. When his haversack was searched nothing was found, but a small box and six small plastic bags with marijuana inside, along with a loose quantity of the substance, were found in a plant pot Belgrave was standing close to.
Before police could search him, he also handed over a plastic bag containing 39 smaller bags that also contained cannabis. The weed amounted to 25.9 grammes.
2 Responses to Community service revoked for repeat offender
This thing want legalising in our lifetime. Then maybe the police and the courts wouldn't have to waste so much time over such nonsense. My opinion.
Take him down by UWI to debush the area . Then take him back home .

any activities that is suitable for 3-5yrs old kids in Margaret river?
I seem to recall a little inlet / beach where you could sit in the pub and watch the surf breaking up right up close. A lot of years ago, but I think it was around Margaret River itself or on the way from Perth to Margaret river. Any pointers on where that might be? Cheers, catblues
I'm planning to visit Margaret River on Sunday. Will most of the attractions be opened on Sunday?
was wondering if anyone has stayed at the innetown backpackers in margaret river...i haven't been able to find much information on it on the net. thanks a lot!

Skip to comments.MSNBCs Chuck Todd Rates Top Ten Senate Seats Likely to Switch in November Video
Posted on 08/06/2010 12:47:11 PM PDT by Federalist Patriot
Here is video of MSNBCs Chuck Todd today giving his Top Ten Senate Seats likely to switch parties in Novembers Midterm Elections. Taking the most likely spot North Dakota. Todd considers Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois as pure tossups.
Todd and his pals have posted their 2010 Senate Power Rankings over at First Read.
(Excerpt) Read more at freedomslighthouse.net ...
Looks good if the R's don't blow it. I am not spending a dime I don't have to to help stop Obama.
Generally not that interested in anything on MSNBC - however I may be willing to change that policy on election night to see Keith Olbermann defecate in his suit when the landslide appears before him.
What would you pay to see him if the R's take both houses? They will have to put nets around the MSNBC and CNN buildings to catch the jumpers.
little chuckie todd whose wife works for the DNC. what a crock.
Mailed him some "I'm yo' 'ho', Negro bro'." bumper stickers I made after that "Zen-like" comment he made about Obama. I really hate the little weasel.
Won't that be a joy to see? We should definitely keep an eye of MSNBC on election night. It promises to be great fun!
They maybe premature classifying Connecticut as a probable "D". McMahon and Simmons have gained considerable ground on the lying Richard Blumenthal.
We have to think that is possible--and work to prevent it. Otherwise, we will be like the hare racing the tortoise. Never EVER think we have it "in the can".
Remember 1994? We thought Americans had woken up to the sham that is liberalism. Some, perhaps, did.
But the Republicans lost their way...and even though they never became as wasteful and corrupt as the Demon-rats, they got bad enough that the media and the Nazi Pelozi crew were able to convince voters to throw them out.
This time around, it'll be more difficult. We have to boot the chumps in NOW, and throw the Kenyan Communist out in 2012. That'll be no easy task. His cult in the media is strong and deep. They worship the guy even more than they did Impeached 42.
Stay awake, work hard, pray, and give of your time, effort and money!
Remember that these are people who will stop at nothing - NOTHING - to retain power. Forging documents, last minute indictments, exposing an opponent's sealed divorce records (despite the effect on the kids), Arkancide, murdering passport office workers or Starbucks employees or little boys, a "nuts and sluts" strategy - nothing is beyond the pale in order to keep power.
Ohio as a toss-up? Pure bunk. Portman is clearly ahead of Fisher and has been the entire campaign. Stopped reading the article right there.
I saw Rove on Hannity the other night and he scared the bejesus out of me, said most races would be decided by a couple of hundred votes.
Meanwhile, none of these talk show hosts or politicians are mentioning the fraud. How many 2008 phony registrations are still on the roles? How many states can't even ask for ID?
If these people were all really serious about winning in Nov., someone would address the biggest threat we face to our freedom, voter fraud.
They can only get a few points on fraud. We have to clobber them.
toad is too stupid to figure out the joke.
he is only paid to spit out DNC faxes.
Ann Curry can 'splain it to him.

Last week, officers and community members gathered at the Red Hook Community Justice Center (RHCJC) for the fourth installment of the Bridging the Gap Series: Youth, Community, & Police. Over 100 participants and officers from various precincts came together for a night of music and games. Officer Louis, a Neighborhood Coordination Officer (NCO) from the NYPD Housing Bureau's PSA 1, especially enjoyed the event because it gave him an opportunity to bond with young people in the community in a relaxed and positive setting. His partner, Officer Williams, loves attending the Bridging the Gap events and is already in contact with the RHCJC to plan the fourth installment in April. These events are part of a wider partnership between Brooklyn Precincts and the RHCJC.
Officers Louis and Williams have collaborated with the RHCJC on their Peacemaking Program and youth court initiative. Officer Williams graduated from the RHCJC's Peacemaking Program in December, and will be mediating his first domestic dispute this month. Officers Louis and Williams are also active participants in RHCJC youth court trials. During youth court trials, teenagers from the community serve as the judge, jury, and advocates. The objective of youth court is to ensure that young people who have committed minor offenses learn accountability while avoiding negative contact with the formal justice system. In a recent case, a teenager was put on trial for truancy. Officer Louis attended the trial and believes the youth court is successful on several levels:
"This program allows young people to engage in the justice system, work on their public speaking, and voice their opinions in a safe setting."
In this case, the teenager was given six months to improve his grades and maintain steady attendance at school. After the trial, officers and community members attend follow-up meetings to encourage the defendant to succeed. Officers Louis and Williams are excited to participate in such initiatives as part of their new roles as a Neighborhood Coordination Officers. In Officer Williams' words:
"I look forward to coming to work every day because it doesn't feel like work."

The Soul of John Black: "Black John"
I remember sitting in a college English class one day and reading the work of some poet whose name I have long forgotten, whose poems were written in such a casual, tossed-off fashion, my fellow English majors and I immediately scoffed at the poor craftsmanship, certain that such simplistic, rough-draft poetry was written in one sitting, receiving no forethought or revisions. Then, our professor led us through an explication, and our scoffing was quickly silenced; beneath the poems' seemingly lackadaisical surface, we found meticulously considered internal rhymes, a sharp cadence, an interplay of allusions and images that made it clear that this poet was only pretending not to give a crap; underneath the tossed-off veneer, there was careful craft and real, writerly skill. Lesson learned: Making something seem effortless often requires a great deal of effort.
John Bigham makes music that sounds deceptively easy and simple, when in fact it's anything but; like so many great poets and songwriters, he's mastered the illusion of making careful, deliberate work sound as natural as breathing. Bigham has been refining his craft for years, first as a sideman for Miles Davis—could there possibly be a better teacher?—and now as the ringleader of The Soul of John Black. And he's brought his considerable gifts of showmanship and musical vigor to Black John, a seriously fun and ceaselessly funky triumph of sound, song and style.

Morocco seeks Cup of Nations switch because of ebola fears
The ebola epidemic that has killed more than 4,000 people across west Africa could force the cancellation of the Africa Cup of Nations early next year after Morocco, the host country, requested that the tournament be postponed or moved.
The Moroccan Football Federation wrote to CAF, the African game's governing body, last week to express its concern that the prospect of hundreds of thousands of fans from across the continent attending the finals could serve to accelerate the spread of the virus. The CAF has reportedly approached Ghana and South Africa about hosting the tournament.
The news came as Alan Pardew, the Newcastle United manager, revealed that they have become the first Barclays Premier League club to put measures in place to make sure their…

Our world is one that wants to get noticed. You need only look on Facebook where it seems everyone has to comment on everything, stream live what they are doing, and make themselves look as witty and wonderful as possible.
Or go to Instagram. People leaving pictures of themselves in exotic places or on a beach in their best bikini. The women, not the men. Sometimes younger people who are trying to get noticed by someone somewhere upload selfies they'll wish they could unload someday.
Or move on to Reality TV. People who don't do much of anything getting filmed so we can watch them not doing much of anything. Like a crash that is about to happen many cannot resist watching them. Which is exactly what they want us to do.
It's a loud day we live in. People clamoring to be noticed using our modern-day connectedness of social media, streaming TV, and the internet to make themselves heard. People work hard at getting noticed.
It's the way of our world today. But it wasn't the way for the early church in Thessalonica, a city that was home to Greek gods as well as the Roman imperial cult. An oath of loyalty to Caesar would be administered to its people. It was also home to Jews. By the time the Apostle Paul arrived we can be sure there were Jews in this city living under the threat of worshiping a God other than Caesar.
Paul entered their synagogues and preached that "Jesus is the Christ." "Christ" means "anointed one." That title belonged to Caesar. Preaching that "Jesus is the Christ" caused an uproar. The city got real noisy. Paul had to sneak out by night.
Later, Timothy reported to Paul that the Thessalonian Christians had undergone more persecution and suffering. They were just hanging onto their faith. So Paul writes, "…aspire to live quietly."
"Aspire" originally had the sense of "the pursuit or love of honor or distinction." A person would work hard at promoting the spread of their name. They would do this through acts of benefaction or by getting their name inscribed on columns or in pavements. It was the first-century form of Twitter.
Paul tells his friends to do just the opposite of the culture. "…aspire to live quietly…" has the paradoxical meaning of "to work hard at not working hard." He is not telling them to not work. Just don't work hard at being noticed.
That was a countercultural message then. And it's a countercultural message now. We live in an age where the one that gets noticed is the loud one, the humorous one, or the extroverted one. Now you not only have to sell a product. You have to sell yourself.
Paul says not to. And that's good news for people who don't fit that mold. When you're told to "do big things for God" but you struggle to juggle all the plates you've got going in the air and just get through the day, you may wonder if God can use you.
Turns out he can. We don't have to be obsessed with pushing ourselves into the public eye. We can be content to be unknown and unnoticed if that is the Lord's will. We can make it our ambition to not be ambitious about getting noticed. We can be quiet and affect our world.
Rosa did. On December 1, 1955 in Montgomery, Alabama, a public bus pulled up to its stop in the early evening and a woman in her forties, dressed nicely, walked up the steps, entered the bus, and sat in the front row of the "Colored" section. The bus filled with riders and the bus driver asked her to give her seat to a white passenger.
This quiet, introverted woman inadvertently started a civil rights movement with one word: "No." When Rosa Parks died in 2005, obituaries called her "soft-spoken, sweet, and small in stature."
Want to make a difference in this world? Don't start a riot. Just be quiet.
Question: What are some "quiet" ways in which you can make a difference?

Psychology key element in managerial role
In the last column, we talked about Dr. W. Edwards Deming's theory of profound knowledge, which managers must possess to be successful in today's very competitive world.
If not, Deming was fond of saying, "Success is not mandatory. Nowhere is it written that you must survive."
Profound knowledge consists of the following interrelated parts:
n Appreciation for a system;
n Theory of variation;
n Theory of knowledge and
nUnderstanding of psychology.
We reviewed the first two elements in the last article so today we will address the other two.
Learning cannot be based only on experience. Learning requires comparison of results to prediction. Experience by itself teaches nothing. There must be some hypothesis or theory to support or disprove by our experience. It should be noted that we cannot prove a theory, only support it or disprove it; some new knowledge might appear that disproves it.
An example that Deming used was the speed of light. Our value of the speed of light has changed several times over the years as we found new ways of measuring it.
The theory of knowledge helps us to understand that management involves planning and a plan is a prediction or theory of the future, i.e., if we do A, then B will result. The plan is based upon measurements, observations and experience but experience and examples teach nothing unless studied with the aid of theory.
No number of examples establishes a theory. Learning requires comparison of results with original prediction or theory.
It is extension of application that discloses inadequacy of a theory, and need for revision, or even new theory. Without theory, there is nothing to revise. Without theory, experience has no meaning. Without theory, there is no learning.
Rational prediction requires theory and builds knowledge through systematic revision and extension of theory based on comparison of prediction with observations.
Psychology helps us to understand people, interaction between people, and how people react to circumstances.
We stated previously that there is variation in every process and certainly there is variation among people.
Management too often operates under the supposition that people are all alike. In fact, they are quite different from each other, having different ways of learning and different values.
Consequently, a manager must have some knowledge of psychology to better understand people and how they react. The leader needs to understand the differences between people and use them to optimize each employee's abilities, including the different ways that people learn, whether by reading, watching, listening or by observing others.
Deming believed in the value of a person's intrinsic motivation, that is, the person's innate desire to perform well at tasks and to learn new skills and concepts. Psychology helps us to nurture and preserve these positive innate attributes of people. Greater understanding fosters greater cooperation and mutual trust and respect.
I recently read a book, "Faith in the Game: Lessons on Football, Work, and Life," by Dr. Tom Osborne, retired football coach of the University of Nebraska.
He left a tremendous legacy, the highest winning percentage (83.6) at a major college at the time of his retirement, highest number of Academic All-Americans, highest graduation rate and the national championship three of the last five years he coached.
His philosophy is very, very similar to that of Dr. Deming. Could it be an accident that he has a PhD. in psychology?

Sometimes we view "The Gospel Story" with too narrow a lens. The gospel isn't just the part where Jesus is born, baptized, crucified and risen again. It's more than that. It's the whole story. It includes the part where sin entered the world in Genesis, the part where a promise was given to Abraham, and all the parts throughout history where God worked in big ways and little ways all the way until now. Of course, Jesus' death and Resurrection were key parts in the story, but those are not the ONLY parts.
This is how Dr. Michelle Anthony opened up her session during the second day of The Gathering.
Michelle continued, explaining some of misconceptions we hold onto as Christians. She recounts a time she took an evangelism class when she was about twenty years old. Everyone was supposed to write down the names of a few friends on little circles and as the class progressed, the goal was to move those little circles into the big "God's Kingdom" circle. Turns out, Michelle's circles weren't moving too much. As the class drew closer to the end, she knew she had to "close the sale" with a neighbor she had named on one of the little circles. One day, (when she didn't have too much time) she headed next door and started down the outline.
She asked "Do you believe in God as Father and Creator?" The neighbor responded positively. Great! Michelle continued with the key questions in Christianity. This woman next door believed in Jesus as Savior, Son of God. She believed He died for our sins and even believed that He rose from the dead. Michelle, who was now running late, was ecstatic! She answered all the questions right! Michelle started gathering up all her stuff, and proclaimed, "Great, you're a Christian now!"
To which the neighbor responded, "No, I"m not." Michelle argued, "Yes, you are" as she continued packing up her stuff.
"No, I'm not", the neighbor insisted.
Determined to move that little circle, Michelle muttered under her breath, "Yes, you are" and quickly jetted out the door!
Shaking her head, Michelle says to us, "I sure hope God sent someone more spiritual into that lady's life!"
I remember having those same feelings when I took an evangelism class in college. Evangelism Explosion. Ugh. We too had an outline and specific questions to ask whatever unfortunate soul happened across our path. We memorized verses, analogies and other meaningless jargon. One day, I was sitting next to a guy at Splash Lagoon in Erie. I started down the outline in my head. The first three points went just as planned. Perfect — I CAN evangelize! However, when we hit the fourth point, this guy strayed from the outline. WHAAAAAT? Doesn't he know he isn't supposed to DO that? He has to follow the plan! Needless to say, I didn't get to move any little circles that day.
In contrast, Michelle shared about a friendship that started about 18 years ago. Michelle was at a gymnastics class, waiting for her daughter to finish when a new mom in town, Tina, walked into class with a box of Malibu lights (what are those anyway?). Tina asked Michelle to help her put them together and as the two women monkeyed around with these lights, they shared stories. Michelle shared her story and Tina shared her story. Over nine months, the friendship grew and flourished and when Good Friday came along, the two ladies attended the service together. At the end of the service, Tina went forward and gave her life to Christ. She didn't follow an outline. She didn't check off the "5 Key Beliefs You Must Have as a Christian". Instead, she learned about God's story and realized she could be a part of it. That's powerful. That's real.
Where does this power come from?
The Holy Spirit.
In his book, The Forgotten God, Francis Chan says something to the effect of:
I'm willing to bet that there are millions of church goers across America that have not experienced the movement of the Holy Spirit in the last year and don't believe they can. Christianity has become more about attendance than the presence of God.
How did this happen?
Shouldn't there be a difference between someone who has the Spirit of God within them (Christians) and someone who does not. I mean, think about it. The Spirit of God. Wow. That's powerful.
Instead, we live life like the Spirit has no power at all. We lack joy. We brush off sins, saying things like "Well, I have a tendency towards that." "Yeah, I struggle with that. It's just one of those things!" How about, we say "NO" to the flesh. To take a serious look at our lives and what we are demonstrating to the world.
The Bible tells us that we should be walking in the Spirit (Galatians 5:16). If you check the Greek word for this, Michelle explains, "walking in the Spirit" isn't a stroll through the garden together. It's walking in perfect sync — almost military style. There is precision. Every step. Form by form. In complete unity. That takes practice. Serious practice.
And it takes submission. Michelle challenges us, "The Spirit will make you do things you wouldn't normally choose. You learn a sort of dependence that doesn't come naturally". Perhaps He will take us on a deep dark winding road. This relationship with the Holy Spirit moves beyond intellectual understanding. It takes us to a place where we can really glimpse God's power in our lives.
Don't you want to be part of that story?
Sometimes God takes us to places that we wouldn't choose. Michelle shared a story about her son. He was in scuba driving training in preparation to become a Marine Biologist. Between some bad weather, heavy waves, and jagged rocks, a friend died in an accident during training. No one would choose that story. No one would want that to happen. This incident caused a stirring in Michelle's son and he drew closer to God, and now he's a new person. Totally changed and totally surrendered to God. The power of the Spirit shining through his life is contagious. That's God's story. Sometimes it's messy. Sometimes it's tragic. Often it's unexpected. But if we follow in step with the Spirit, it's always the best story.
Too often though, we try to live life without God. Without the power of the Holy Spirit. Even in our Children's Ministry, we push this moral formation tendency onto the kids. We give a lesson and we say, "Now go home and be a servant. Go home and be nicer to your brother." Just be better, kids. Just try harder.
That's not right.
We can't do it. Not really. Sure, we can disciple ourselves and act better. Improve behavior and force kids into "acting right". But ultimately, that wouldn't work. This humanistic moral-living theology will be rejected. Kids will walk away because there's no power in this method.
So let's try something else.
Let's jump into God's Story where we belong. Let's hang on to the power of the Holy Spirit, and let's see where that takes us.
