26/06/18: Kingcrow to release new studio album in September
Italian progressive metal/rock sextet Kingcrow will release their latest studio album, The Persistence, on 7th September 2018, via Sensory Records. This will coincide with the band's European tour supporting Pain Of Salvation. Details can be found on the PoS Tour Page | Kingcrow website.
"KINGCROW's upcoming third album for Sensory Records, The Persistence closes a three-year gap since their acclaimed Eidos album. Describing KINGCROW today is quite a difficult task, but one could state that the influence of different kinds of music; progressive rock, alternative rock, ambient music, metal, and more are all present in the band's songs. With each release, they take a step further away from their original roots and is regarded today as one of the most exciting bands that Italy has to offer."
Diego Cafolla comments: "With the last record, Eidos, we finished what we call the 'life trilogy' which included Phlegethon, In Crescendo, and Eidos, and when we started talking about the new chapter everyone agreed we needed somehow to step a bit outside of our comfort zone and refresh our sound…"
The Persistence will be released on CD, 2xLP, and digital formats. The vinyl version features three bonus tracks recorded at ProgPower USA, newly mastered by Alan Douches, on the D-side.

26/06/18: Frontiers premiere Robert Berry's Powerful Man featuring Keith Emerson
As reported ealier this month Robert Berry's 3.2 would be releasing The Rules Have Changed on 10th August 2018, via Frontiers Music. The initial work began for the album with Keith Emerson prior to his untimely death in 2016. Berry recently decided to record the album using the material that they had created as a fitting tribute to Keith Emerson. Below you will find the video for the first track to be released – Somebody's Watching. Today Frontiers Music have revealed the track Powerful Man…
Speaking to Ultimate Classic Rock, Robert Berry comments: "The song is a tribute to fathers and the inspiration came from seeing how many rockers have produced equally talented offspring over the years."
"In my life, I have played with many very famous musicians," he says. "Each one has had a son that is affected by that fame. They see a powerful man up in that stage. But all also had a great dad off of that stage. Sammy Hagar's son Aaron, Steve Howe's son Dylan, Greg Kihn's son Ry and Keith Emerson's son Aaron. They were all raised by loving, powerful dads. And now in Keith's family, his grandson is following in his footsteps. Ethan Emerson may be as good as his granddad someday. Now that was a powerful man. They are all the inspiration for the song 'Powerful Man.'"
The Rules Have Changed will be released on 10th August 2018.

22/06/18: Aisles premiere last video of Live Series and announce EP
Aisles premiere the last video of their "Live from Estudio del Sur" sessions, for the song Club Hawaii, which was originally released on the album Hawaii (2016). The session started with the video for Clouds Motion, and it continued with Shallow and Daft, Still Alive, and Club Hawaii. All of these songs will be included on their new EP, Live from Estudio del Sur which will be released on 6th July 2018.
Guitarist German Vergara comments: "We knew that 'Club Hawaii' could not be left out of this live series. It's a very collective effort in which we incorporated elements from electronic and Latin music, pop, jazz, and even metal, so as to transport the listener to the future in which the concept of the album takes place. We used more distortion, sounded heavier than usual and Sebastián recites a heart wrenching poem in the darkest section of the song. Personally it's my favorite on the 'Hawaii' album and I'm very proud of my lyrics. When playing it live I get goosebumps every time we reach the part 'Turn my soul into flesh and soil and blood and waves…'"

It was amazing to do a project that was so different to anything we've done before and see how our music fits in a totally different environment to how it's been used before. The music in the film is some of my favourite Mogwai has ever made and we can't wait for people to hear it."

Pig Views is scheduled for release via Uranium Club/Quatermass on 13th July 2018. All formats and will be available direct from the Uranium Club Bandcamp and from Burning Shed.

17/06/18: New release from David Kollar and Arve Henriksen in July
Illusion of a Separate World is the meeting between innovative Slovakian guitarist, film music composer and sound designer David Kollar (Steven Wilson, Pat Mastelotto, Fennesz, Marco Minnemann, Eivind Aarset) and Norwegian trumpet maestro Arve Henriksen. Shimmering soundscapes and haunting melodies mixed with soundtrack music, ethnic influences, electronic explorations, jazz hybrids, and post-rock riffs are at the core of this meeting.
David Kollar and Arve Henriksen started their collaboration after they met in 2017 and played just twice before the recording. "I played last year at the Spectaculare festival in Prague," said David "I had a solo performance and after me there was Arve playing with Christian Fennesz. At the end of the festival, we shared our contact details. In few months, we met again on the stage at Hevhetia festival in Slovakia." The performance was such a bonding experience that the two chose to record an album together.
Intimate, intense, passionate and subtle, Illusion of a Separate World is two artists showing how easy is for them to create music that is immediate and tremendously complex, haunting and gorgeous at same time.

16/06/18: Robert Fripp's New York residency soundscapes available
Robert Fripp's complete three-day soundscapes residency in New York from November 2000 is now available to buy as a bundle as well as individual concerts. The performances began just four days after King Crimson had completed its final North American tour for the year.
The concerts ran from 28th – 30th November and included a lunchtime and evening performances were held in the atrium of New York's World Financial Centre, described here by Downtown Express…
"The large, open Winter Garden provided a wondrous setting, filled with palm trees as well as speakers situated under many of the seats for a true surround-sound experience. (Fripp himself called this arrangement "quietly spectacular.") The music itself was anything but sedate as he improvised, creating an alternately eerie, vibrant, calming atmosphere. Technology has allowed him to achieve an even more dynamic sound than his looping technique."

15/06/18: Godsticks release acoustic version of We Are Leaving
Mindful that their fourth studio album Faced With Rage, released in October 2017, did not have an acoustic track – Godsticks have now peeled back We Are Leaving
Darran Charles comments: "It was pointed out to us recently that Faced with Rage was the only Godsticks album that didn't feature an acoustic guitar track. So we have stripped a song down to its bare bones and this is the result. Hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording it. The video (filmed and edited by Chris Vinnicombe) can be viewed above."
The band will be performing at this year's Stone Free Festival, which takes place this weekend – and they will also be undertaking a short series of UK dates in October.

41POINT9 premiere the first single/video from the band's forthcoming album Mr. Astute Trousers, scheduled for release on 21st September 2018.

The video tells the story of a burlesque dancer who falls in love with her Emcee… Bassist Bob Madsen comments: "What started as an inside joke has actually become a pretty cool lil' tune. One evening the band was wondering why you never hear Prog in a Strip Club? That just seemed unfair. So 41POINT9 set out to rise to the challenge and correct this tragic wrong. Hence, 'Confessions At Midnight' was born."
The band's Bob Masden and Brian Cline have produced a series of concept videos, to promote album, which will be released during the summer and ahead of the album's release on 21st September 2018.

It will be a co-bill with Roine Stolt's THE FLOWER KING's revisited band, so each show promises to be a great evening of music. We've been getting a lot of questions about who will be playing drums on this tour, so at this time let me introduce our new touring drummer, Mr. Mike Thorne, from SAGA! We are really excited to have him on board and are looking forward to seeing you on tour."
Roine Stolt adds: "Asked to put together a band to go on the road, celebrate our label Inside Out's 25 year anniversary – I was thinking of the 'treasure' that is the music I wrote for The Flower Kings during that same period. I felt compelled to bring out this music for yet another round – and in the process bring in some old friends and some new.
The music is universal – some songs timeless – and by November I hope to have an exciting set-list – to not only celebrate my 1st album and the origin of all things "The Flower King" – but to cover the rest of TFK's history – and eventually a new tune & a few new faces. Tune up the engine – Time to prog!"

13/06/18: The Pineapple Thief reveal more details on new album and share first single
The Pineapple Thief have revealed the first single, Far Below, taken from their forthcoming studio album Dissolution which will be released on 31st August 2018 via Kscope.
Bruce Soord explains the song's evolution "'Far Below' began life as a bit of a jam session between myself and Gavin. Gavin had this distinctive 6/8 rhythm going and it didn't take long for me to find the melodies. And so, a song was born. Is it my favourite track from the album? Impossible to judge as the album covers so much ground. But it does showcase what the four of us want The Pineapple Thief to be about and I for one can't wait to play this one live."

"Album opener Goliath's Moon has been written by our guitarist Cam Blokland and it's a smash!
"There's also a re-worked, extended version of a song I wrote with Mark Trueack for the abandoned Unitopia album titled Crossroads, a piece I worked on with Steve Unruh from Samurai of Prog called Innocence & Fortune and another 'epic'… Cries For The Lonely which drummer Brody Green had a huge hand in creating, as did all of the guys. This is truly a band effort and we can't wait for you all to hear it!!!"

12/06/18: Jon Hiseman ~ RIP
Drum legend, composer, arranger, recording engineer, record producer and music publisher Jon Hiseman passed away in the early hours of this morning 12th June 2018… Jon had been diagnosed with brain tumor last month.
Recently Jon formed a new trio with long time friend Clem Clempson and Mark Clarke. Under the name of JCM the band recorded Heroes in late 2017 and the band had recently embarked on some UK tour dates.
Clem Clempson said of his friend: "It is with great sadness and a feeling of utter disbelief that I must share the awful news that my dear friend and colleague of almost 50 years, the great Jon Hiseman, passed away early this morning after a brief and courageous battle with cancer. Hard to believe that this could come to pass just a few weeks after we were playing together onstage with JCM. For all who worked with him he was a constant guiding light, inspirational and indefatigable, a true leader who will be greatly missed by his many colleagues and legions of fans. Thanks for everything Jon, RIP."
Most noted for his work with Colosseum & Colosseum II, however this would merely scratch the surface. Perhaps we should let the music speak…
Our condolences to his family and close friends.
Jon Hiseman ~ RIP

In last months' TPA News it was revealed that Strangefish were to release a new studio album in June. Now with less than a week until the launch of The Spotlight Effect, the band offer a taster video – Up To You.
"'The Spotlight Effect' focuses on the media driven world we find ourselves in today, where every move we make is analysed then picked to pieces. There's nothing sacred anymore; all things are considered fair game for an 'entertain-me' hungry audience. This perfectly summed up the general mood of all the songs, with aspects of the human condition as the overriding theme."
The Spotlight Effect will be on CD and digital media on 18th June 2018.

The Sea Within launch the lyric video for Goodbye, the second single taken from their eponymous debut album, which will be released 22nd June 2018. For Goodbye, Flying Colors' Casey McPherson is the featured vocalist…
Roine Stolt comments: "One of the great groovy 'collaborative' tracks on our album. We go down the 'funk' route here – but with strong melody hooks. Originally presented by Jonas Reingold, but all the band helped in writing, shaping & bringing this song to life in the London studio. Casey McPherson added his soulful voice to this 'breakup drama' – a bit of 'real life story' in a music genre that seldom dwells in reality. It promises to be a great live track."
The previously single clip, Ashes of Dawn, appeared in last month's TPA News.

08/06/18: Travis & Fripp release 3CD set in July
Theo Travis & Robert Fripp have a new 3CD set released in July. Between The Silence consists of three complete concerts recorded between 2009 and 2010 with only two tracks previously available.
The concerts ran from 28th – 30th November and included a lunchtime and evening performances were held in the atrium of New York's World Financial Centre, described here by Downtown Express…
"As with so much music where improvisation is central, a core element, hearing the performances as heard on the respective nights allows the listener to enter more fully into the spirit in which the music originated, while the differences in venues, acoustics & even size of audience impacts upon the manner in which the duo approaches each concert.
Most of the music featured is new to CD with only two tracks having appeared in different/edited form on the album Follow.
As ever the music produced by Travis & Fripp remains wonderfully difficult to neatly categorise – sometimes quiet, but never to the extent that it could be described as 'ambient' – improvisational, but not in such a manner as to call it 'jazz' – using electronics, but not resulting in music that could be described as 'electronica'. It is, nonetheless, music that has touched a great many people – both in concert & as presented on discs – with this release marking the duo's fifth recorded release."

Haken will release their first live album, L-1VE, through InsideOut Music on the 22nd June 2018 – today sees the launch of the second clip, The Endless Knot, taken from the live set.
The band comments: "The Endless Knot is one of our live favourites; the crowd reaction when the opening riff kicks off always sends goose bumps, knowing we're all in for a wild ride of brutal riffing, mosh-friendly dub-step and epic sing-a-longs! It's just a chance for everyone to let their hair down while simultaneously showcasing one of our shorter, yet more complicated tunes to play."
L-1VE will be released as a 2CD/2DVD Digipak package & as digital download. The DVD will include four bonus tracks filmed at ProgPower USA 2016, as well as all of the official videos from the Affinity album. The main show and the bonus material on the DVD are also mixed in 5.1 surround sound.
The previously released clip, In Memoriam, appeared in last month's TPA News.

Uriah Heep will release their 25th studio album, Living The Dream, on 14th September 2018. Ahead of this the band have released the first single, Grazed By Heaven…
"The song is clearly about sexual tension and desire, very much in the form of Fifty Shades Of Grey, putting oneself at ease with the person who is taking control of the situation and trusting you will be in absolute bliss. Fantasy and lust is the calling card here, it's quite black & white really. The song is very sexy so naturally called for a sexy lyric," says Jeff Scott Soto.

02/06/18: BirdPen release first single from forthcoming album
Southampton based alt/prog rock duo BirdPen will release their new studio album, There's Something Wrong With Everything, in the early autumn. It is preceded by a single, "This Is Your Life, which comments on our confused, junk guzzling, information overloading, fake news spreading, fear mongering and brainwashed modern age. Driven by a motorik groove with a Pink Floyd-ish synth layer, heavy fuzz guitar precedes a chorus from which emanates a ranting message driven vocal: "This is your life, static screens, faded dreams oh can't you see. This is your life, the broadcast lies, open your eyes you will see."
"'There's Something Wrong With Everything' melds heavy/psychedelic guitars, rolling basslines, Krautrock drums and old school electronics to create a doom groove ambience with Dave Pen's lead vocal sitting atop, while musically the duo draw inspiration from acts such as Deerhunter, Hookworms, Suuns, The Beta Band, Pink Floyd and The Brian Jonestown Massacre."
This Is Your Life is written, recorded and produced by the BirdPen duo of Mike Bird and Dave Pen. The song was mastered by Frank Arkwright at Abbey Road Studios in London. Available to pre-order via Pledge Music

01/06/18: The Wetton/Downes Icon albums to be re-released
Geoffrey Downes and the John Wetton (estate) announce the re-release of the iCon trilogy of albums, newly re-mastered and with bonus tracks and all enclosed in six panel Digi-packs.
The re-releases have been personally overseen by Geoff Downes and are intended to be a return to the marketplace of individual albums for fans who may wish to purchase a definitive edition.
Of his song-writing relationship and the formation of iCon, Geoff Downes says, "Throughout my entire career, there is no doubt in my mind, that some of my proudest achievements have been the songs that I wrote with the late John Wetton. Not only were we great friends, but also blood brothers in the song-writing department. His magic rubbed off on me immensely, and outside of the hugely successful Asia template, we decided to step out together with our Icon project. It was a 'bromance' made in heaven, because here we had the chance to expand our innermost thoughts and variety of influences, without interference. It was effectively 'us'. We also had the luxury of working with some of the finest musicians in the world who were willing participants in the project."
For fans of the whole iCon legacy, a box set is being planned out featuring these albums and all the other recordings of the iCon duo, including previously unreleased material.

Robert Berry will release 3.2 The Rules Have Changed on 10th August 2018, via Frontiers Music. The initial work began for the album with Keith Emerson prior to his untimely death in 2016. Berry recently decided to record the album using the material that they had created as a fitting tribute to Keith Emerson. Check out Somebody's Watching, taken from the album:
"Keith and I developed together a vision of what the new album would be like", explains Berry. "There were many times over the past 30 years since 3 had come out that Keith either played on a session for me or we just talked on the phone. The new album consists of some past 3 writing from 1988, some newly written last efforts from Keith, and some songs written exclusively by me after Keith's death."
The album features some past 3 material from 1988, some newly written tracks from Keith and some songs written "exclusively by me after Keith's death".

Head and neck cancer is a condition that begins with nose, throat, sinuses or mouth. It occurs in the cells that line the surfaces of these body parts. There are different types of head and neck cancer, each having different symptoms.
Let's take a look at some of the different types of head and neck cancer
Oral Cavity Cancer:
This is a condition which affects the lips and the inside of the mouth including gums, the inside of your cheeks etc. The symptoms of this condition include red or white patches in the mouth, gums and tongue. The condition can also cause swelling in the jaw, bleeding or pain in the mouth.
Pharynx Cancer
Another name of the throat is pharynx which includes your tonsils, the back of the tongue, soft palate etc.
The symptoms of cancer of the pharynx are:
- Having problems in breathing
- Painful swallowing
- Neck or throat pain
- Pain in the ear
Larynx Cancer
Larynx is known as the voice box and is responsible for holding your vocal cords and epiglottis. Larynx cancer is marked by:
- Painful swallowing
- Pain in the ear
- Changes in your voice
Nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses Cancer:
The space inside your nose is known as the nasal cavity. Small spaces in the bones of the head around the nose are known as paranasal sinuses.
You should look for the following symptoms of nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses cancer:
- Chronic sinus infections
- Blocked sinuses
- Headaches
- Swelling around the eyes
- Pain in the teeth
Salivary glands
These glands are present in the lower part of the mouth and are responsible for the production of saliva.
Signs and symptoms of salivary gland cancer are:

Everyone is against war now? What if war is inevitable and will be much harder to win later?
According to news reports today, Iran succeeded in sending a major military convoy of trucks straight to Lebanon, filled with troops, experts and equipment. Iran completed a safe-passage-corridor through Iraq straight through to Syria and Lebanon, in other words, straight to Israel. So much for Israel's threats to Iran, warning them to stay away from Lebanon. And so much for the populist Israeli anti-war policy, to "let the Arabs kill each other, but not to get involved." The Israeli media, politicians and military pundits told us that it would not be wise to get involved with the civil war that raged across Syria. In other words, our inaction helped Syria, Russia, Hizbullah and Iran defeat their enemies to quell the revolt in Syria. We created a vacuum that was eagerly filled by the evil axis that has restored power to Assad and that has crowned the Hizbullah who is now bringing safe passage to their Iranian handlers, spitting distance from the Israeli border.
It is not as if the Iranians are hiding their intentions. There is not a day that passes when Iran does not threaten to annihilate Israel. Reason enough to take Iran out of its misery, once and for all. We sat by and rejected the military option allowing international diplomacy to pave Iran's way to a nuclear bomb. At best, Iran can achieve their deadly nuclear goal in a matter of years, at worst – in a matter of months. We sat by and allowed the Hizbullah and Iran to win the war in Syria. And now we watch as they bring Teheran to our door step. Hitting isolated Iranian targets in Lebanon is fine. Kol Hakavod. However, now with the free flow of trucks that have started pouring into Lebanon there will be weapons that upset the military balance against Israel's favour that will trickle through regardless, unless the source in Iran is taken out of commission in a major way. Iran's success in establishing the Teheran-Tel Aviv corridor is an impressive military achievement and dream-come-true for the Jew-hating mullahs in Iran. However, Israel can turn that Persian dream into a Persian nightmare if Israel finally wakes up and decides to act. Israel can convert the corridor into a two-way highway headed straight from Jerusalem through Damascus to Iraq and Teheran.
It is clear that the Arab states, including Egypt have never changed. All of the signs on the ground indicate that they are all preparing the necessary infrastructure for massive troop transport and deployment and an all-out war with Israel, when the time is right for them. Why wait for them to surprise us again? Why wait for them to determine the timing and the intensity of the conflict when they are ready to inflict the most Jewish casualties? It is time to consider a pre-emptive strike. If we are heading for war, then let it be on our terms and when we are ready. There is no guarantee that Israel will have a chance to recover and respond to the Arab surprise attack, if they allow the Arabs to strike first. Who knows how many Jews will die in that first blow, G-d forbid? Who knows what strategic assets in Israel will be taken out if the Arabs are given the chance to strike first? Enough said.

PEOPLE ARE COMPLICATED. We try to achieve a lot of things, and those things often conflict with each other. Our actions flow from both logic and emotion. Because of these complexities, it can be difficult to understand the behavior of other people or even our own behavior.
Political scientists who study judicial behavior generally rely on a few models of behavior that have much in common with each other. In the models that dominate the field, judges are not very complicated. As depicted in these models, judges on many courts want only one thing, good legal policy as they define it. They act in a logical, unemotional way to pursue that goal. Thus these models rule out of consideration a great deal—all of judges' emotions and most of the goals they seek to achieve.
All models of human behavior simplify reality, and even highly simplified models can be very useful. Indeed, such models facilitate the study of behavior by making analysis more manageable. The simplified models that scholars employ to study judges have done much to help us understand judicial decision making, and our understanding continues to grow.
And yet these models are not entirely satisfying, primarily because they rule out so much. It is possible that what they leave aside is not very important to judging. Perhaps most of judges' goals and all their emotions affect only their lives outside court, not their work in court. But that seems unlikely: the line between those two segments of judges' lives could hardly be that sharp. Besides, some of the judicial behavior that we observe does not fit comfortably within the simplified models that scholars employ.
For these reasons it seems worthwhile to step outside the standard models and consider judges' behavior from other vantage points. Several years ago I began to think about what I call judges' personal audiences. These are the people whose esteem judges want for its own sake, not because that esteem might help them make good legal policy or achieve some other end. In thinking about personal audiences, I focused on two questions. First, what kinds of audiences are likely to be most important to judges? Second, how might judges' interest in approval from those audiences affect their behavior as judges?
Thinking about those questions led me to a perspective on judicial behavior that is based on judges' relationships with their audiences. Not everything about judicial behavior can be understood from that perspective, but these relationships illuminate a good deal about what judges do. Consideration of judges' concern with what their audiences think of them helps in understanding some aspects of judicial behavior that the domi-

Interested in taking your career off the beaten track? From working with volcanoes to cryptocurrency, here are eight unusual jobs you could do, with tips on how to make them a reality.
1. Space lawyer
As lesser known careers go, this one's pretty out of this world (sorry, couldn't resist). The name is a bit misleading: a space lawyer isn't floating around in space. Instead, they take care of all the legal stuff from down on the ground.
Usually experts in international law, they are often faced with questions like "Who is responsible if two satellites collide?" or "Who owns the minerals on an asteroid?" With the future of space tourism on the horizon, these lawyers are now tasked with writing laws to protect both passengers and companies in the unpredictable world of outer space.

2. Anthropologist
When it comes to unusual job opportunities, anthropology is a fascinating route. Anthropology is the study of humans – how we evolved, how we behave, and how we communicate with each other. Anthropology is about everything that makes us human, from our everyday rituals to special ceremonies. That could mean investigating a modern religion in America, or it could be examining fossils in Africa (that's right, fossils are involved from time to time!).
Only a small number of anthropologists work in academic settings. Most of them are actually employed in other Career Zones like business, charities, international development, medicine and healthcare. There's even a chief anthropologist at the big tech company Intel, who helps the business understand the future of technology.
Follow this path: how to become an anthropologist
3. Nanosystems engineers
Nanosystems engineers design, build, test and improve materials on the "nanoscale" – that means things one hundred thousandth the size of the width of a human hair. And fantastical as it might sound, microscopic devices for use in medical treatment and surgery are just the sort of thing you could be working on in real life!
As well as medicine, nanotechnology has applications in computer hardware, electronics, energy, cosmetics and even space travel. As a nanosystems engineer, you will build new technologies using atoms and molecules.
Make it happen: how to become a nanosystems engineer
4. Volcanologist
If you're looking for unusual jobs that will also let you make a positive impact on the environment, you might want to consider becoming a volcanologist. They study volcanoes and the conditions that create them. The aim is to understand how volcanoes work and predict future eruptions for the safety of people who live nearby.
Volcanologists journey to exotic locations to collect samples from active or dormant volcanoes. They map out the rock formations that make up a volcano, and explore how volcanoes erupt. To pursue this role, you will usually need an undergraduate degree in geology, geophysics or earth science. Most volcanologists also have a masters' degree or PhD.
Go green: 10 cool environmental jobs you could do
5. Phlebotomist
Phlebotomists take blood samples from patients to help diagnose illness. They use a hypodermic needle and draw blood into a tube, and then apply a bandage to the patient. Phlebotomists then carefully label and store samples, and deliver them to the lab, and record any relevant data.
As part of their job, phlebotomists clearly explain the procedure to patients. They take care to reassure patients and put them at ease, as many can be nervous about having their blood drawn.
How to get there: the skills needed for a phlebotomy career
6. Neurologist
There are plenty more unusual job opportunities in medicine and healthcare. One is in neurologist. Neurologists diagnose and treat issues like strokes, cerebral palsy, brain tumours, epilepsy, severe headaches, blackouts and lots of other conditions – in fact, more than 5,000 neurological diseases have been discovered.
The steps to take: how to become a neurologist
7. Orthotist
Orthotists (similar to prosthetists) work with devices for people who have a physical disability. Orthotist John told us: "A typical day would involve managing a work schedule between patient assessments, paperwork and prescription management and rectification (the process of designing and modelling the orthotic devices). I also work with other prosthetists, orthotists, technicians, admin and other members of the healthcare umbrella. I would see patients daily; these range from children, elderly, severely disabled and athletes."
What it's really like: interview with an orthotist
8. Cryptocurrency marketing manager
Lesser known careers in marketing include cryptocurrency marketer. We spoke to Molly, who told us the best thing about this role is "having the freedom to try new things. Most businesses rely on "tried and tested" marketing methods that have proven to be effective or reliable in the past, but they need to be thinking ahead. The way we market products and services is changing — it's no longer flyers and billboards.
"In an emerging industry like cryptocurrency, there are no "tried and tested" means of marketing so you have the freedom to explore what works (or doesn't work!)."

im a 18 year old male who had sex for the first time last night. now this morning i have a bruised area under my foreskin. i do not have no pain how ever. it is around the sperm pipe thing. should i be worried ???
|Dr. Tamer Fouad - Thu Feb 15, 2007 8:57 am
I think you should have it checked out. There is no of telling what it is without examination. Some possibilities include balanitis (inflammation of the glans in uncircumcized men). It could also be a result of trauma. Most STDs would have a longer incubation period but that can't be ruled out since chancroid for example can develop in as little as 12 hours.
Best regards,
|Dr. Safaa Mahmoud - Thu Feb 15, 2007 9:11 am
Causes of your complaint include:
- Traumatic injury due to very active intercourse especially when enough lubrication is absent may cause the damage of the skin of the penis.
-Contact Dermatitis occurs due to skin contact with a substance that causes an allergic reaction (allergic contact Dermatitis)
or with an irritant substances (irritant contact Dermatitis).
The inflammation usually subsides spontaneously, but avoiding exposure to any irritant is important.
You may use only bland lotions, like moisturizing lotions, till you consult your docotr.
Direct clinical examination is essential to exclude other causes like STDs.
Best regards.

Ford County: Stories, is a book of short stories by John Grisham, and I finished reading it a couple of days ago.
Some of these stories are 50 or 60 pages long, and to me that's not a short story. That's a long story. I'm not sure what the cut off for a short story should be, but after 10 pages, you're pushing it as far as I'm concerned.
Anyway, these were interesting, & compared to Kafka, very easy stories to read. Refreshingly easy to read. They were completely linear, and contained no airborne dogs, nobody who turned into a bug, no one who spent their life building a wall. One of the stories took place over a period of 3 hours or so, others over a period of weeks or months, but they all were linear. They started out at one point in time, and ended at another point in time, with the end of the stories always later in time than the beginning, and no time was lost anywhere along the way. Some of the characters were decent people, some maybe not so much, but none of them ever seemed confused about what time it was or how long it was taking for things to occur. None of them seemed to be out of touch with their surroundings.
The stories had plots that were pretty straight forward.
I wonder how Kafka would have written these stories. But I'll never know, because a) he didn't, and b) if he had, I probably would not have finished them.
Now I need another book to read.

Connor Lunn (3-1, 2.28 ERA) recorded his third victory of the season to tie the league lead. He shut the Whitecaps down for five innings allowing just two hits and one walk. Yesterday's start was the last appearance of the summer for Lunn as he now returns home to California.
Nathan Florence and Ryan Stoudemire combined to throw the final four innings of game surrendering one run on two hits and two walks. Florence pitched 2.1 innings and recorded the hold while Stoudemire threw the final 1.2 innings and picked up his first save of the summer.
Jeremy Ydens finds himself back in the leadoff spot tonight after an off day (via Caroline O'Connor).
Brewster got a solid start from Ben Dragani as he limited the Gatemen to just one run over six innings, but gave up three in the seventh as the Gatemen broke it open. Ryan Kreidler (2-3, HR) and Jakob Goldfarb (1-3, 2 RBI) were the offense stars of the night for Wareham.
The Whitecaps return home tonight following back-to-back games on the road. The return home to Brewster is much needed for the Whitecaps as they play slightly better at Stony Brook than they do on the road.
Their home record sits at 2-7-3 (7 points) while they are 2-11 (4 points) on the road. In addition, the Whitecaps offensive hits better at Stony Brook as they hit .256 in Brewster versus a measly .206 away from home. The same goes for the pitching staff. The Whitecaps staff ERA is at 5.66 on the road and jumps down over a run at home to 4.31.
Following today's game, the Gatemen return one final time to Brewster on July 18 for their last matchup of the year with the Whitecaps.

Sahid Valenzuela, 2B – Cal State Fullerton

The latest issue of Fantagraphics's wonderful annual tribute to the classic EC Comics is now out, and as always this book is a total pleasure for anyone who loves wonderfully transgressive old comics.
You can pretty much tell right away if this is the book for you based on your reaction to the cover of this comic. If you look at that loose sketch by Harvey Kurtzman on the cover and think, "Ooh, a lost cover sketch by the comedic master," then this is a book you must have. Or if you see the back cover and palpitate a bit at the chance to see a long-lost piece of Jack Davis war comics art, you will love this book. And if you don't, you might find some material in this comic that will delight you.
This issue is dominated mainly by three features. Up front is an exhaustively research and tremendously well-written article by EC authority Roger Hill that describes the search for the original art for the great Basil Wolverton's famous illustration of Lena the Hyena, "the ugliest girl in the world." Hill quotes directly from fascinating mail of the era, and I found myself spellbound by his stories of how he retored and found the original art. I'll freely admit that I'm a big geek for that sort of thing, but this meticulously researched article was fascinating to me.
The second major feature is a "virtual reprint" of the never-published MAD rival Flip #3, including many pages of work by comics great Howard Nostrand. MAD editor Harvey Kurtzman often said that Flip is the comic that came closest in tone to his great, original series, and we see that smart, insouciant, irreverent humor on display in this story, especially in the wacky, balloon-puncturing story about Christopher Columbus. While some of the humor of this story may feel a bit obscure to modern readers, we still will be able to relate to the style and energy of these stories. And maybe most interestingly, the creators' commentary after the story gives a very different perspective on the time that these stories were created. Suffice it to say that nobody's opinions are censored in this section!
The final major feature of this issue is a collection of single-panel comic strips drawn by the great Jack Davis during his nine-month stint in Guam in 1945 and '46 when, as Davis says, "I had no talent." But Davis is being a bit too modest — these panels are a bit primitive and broad but are fun and light and present a wonderfully vivid portrait of the frustration and wonder of being a young kid set loose on a beautiful Pacific island, complete with attractive local women, white sand beaches and the grinding frustration of life in the Navy.
So if any of these three pieces make your heart beat a bit faster — if the idea of seeing Jack Davis's contemporary thoughts of Christmas in Guam makes you interested in picking up this book — then Sqa Tront 13 is the book for you. As is always true of books from Fantagraphics, the reproduction in this book is spectacular and all the work is meticulously researched. But it is true that this material is for those who are already fans of EC comics and their era.

After three-and-a-half years of protracted preliminary litigation — including multiple amendments to the complaint — the district court properly dismissed the plaintiffs' claims for alleged illegal intrusions into the plaintiffs' electronic devices to conduct unlawful surveillance.
The complaint alleges that in early 2011, the plaintiff worked on the CBS News investigation into "Operation Fast and Furious," an ill-fated sting operation of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms. The plaintiff's highly critical report of the Operation aired on CBS on February 22, 2011. Over the course of that year, Attkisson continued reporting on Operation Fast and Furious in the face of efforts by government entities to stymie her reporting. Later in 2011, the plaintiffs noticed "anomalies" in several electronic devices at their home in Leesburg, Virginia, including computers, telephones, televisions, and the house alarm. The problems with those devices continued through 2012, despite their internet service provider's attempts to cure them.
The district court did not err in dismissing the plaintiffs' Fourth Amendment Bivens claim against the Attorney General and Postmaster for failure to state a claim. These defendants held much higher ranks than the line-level FBI agents sued in Bivens. Moreover, a claim based on unlawful electronic surveillance presents wildly different facts and a vastly different statutory framework from a warrantless search and arrest. And the plaintiffs seek to hold high-level officials accountable for what they themselves frame as policy-level decisions to target internal leaks to the media. Congress's omission of a damages remedy for Fourth Amendment violations in similar factual circumstances is more than inadvertent and strongly counsels this court's hesitation before creating such a remedy itself.
The district court also didn't err in dismissing their Electronic Communications Privacy Act claim because the Attorney General and Postmaster are entitled to qualified immunity. To the extent that they procured any wrongful interception, use, or disclosure of the plaintiffs' electronic communications, they did not violate a clearly established right.
Finally, the district court properly dismissed John Doe agents and Verizon defendants on procedural grounds and denied leave to further amend the complaint. Put simply, the court was dissatisfied with the plaintiffs' lack of progress in pursuing their claims after more than three years of litigation, and their lack of respect for court orders. Moreover, the Amended Complaint contravened the court's prior orders and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure in multiple ways. Those circumstances support the dismissal with prejudice of their claims under Rule 41(b).
Affirmed. Judge Wynn wrote an opinion concurring in part and dissenting in part.
Attkisson v. Holder (P), No. 18-1677, Mar. 21, 2019. 4th Cir. (King) from EDVA at Alexandria (Brinkema).

Hello all,
What is good healthy and safe live vegetation to keep in a veiled chameleon enclosure?
This will be for adult chameleons in the near future I want to cover all the aspects to make sure all is in place. After reading some international forums as well as Sareptiles I noticed that there are some problems with ficus.
The basic idea is to have a large tree branch (treated and cleansed for the job of course) some jungle vine silk plant's mainly made by exo terra interlaced with the vine and a single live tree/plant in the enclosure that is a little lower down in the enclosure, something like a umbrella ficus.
If some of the keeper's could share some visual material of their setup's that would help a whole lot.

Gender harassment, or gender-based harassment, occurs when a person harasses another based on their gender or gender identity. The harassment does not need to be based on anything of a sexual nature. Instead, gender harassment usually involves stereotypes based on the roles and functions associated with a particular gender.
Workplace gender harassment laws are similar to Title IX laws, which prevent gender harassment and discrimination in school settings. In an employment and work setting, gender harassment can occur between co-workers, between a supervisor and a subordinate, and in various other settings.
What Are Some Examples of Gender Harassment?
A wide range of conduct can be considered gender workplace harassment. This conduct can include actions such as:
- Inappropriate displays of material that degrades a particular gender, such as a comic or other type of visual
- Comments or remarks that gender-degrading, such as inappropriate jokes or stories (especially if they are directed at a particular person or group of persons)
- Insults or derogatory actions directed towards a person based on their gender
- Remarks that continue after the person has requested them to stop, or has indicated that they are offensive
- Actual physical contact, assault, or interference with the person due to gender issues
Are There Any Legal Remedies for Gender Harassment?
Gender harassment can result in various remedies, including:
- Removal or termination of the person responsible for the harassment
- Damages for losses caused by the gender harassment, such as lost wages and lost business opportunities
- Changes in company workplace policies
In many instances, gender harassment will also include some elements of gender discrimination. In such cases, legal remedies may include:
- Reinstatement of the victim to a previous job role (for instance, if the discrimination or harassment led to a termination)
- Investigation into the workplace by the Equal Opportunity Commission (EEOC) because filing with the EEOC is often required for discrimination cases before a lawsuit can be filed
Lastly, some gender harassment cases may be filed as a class action lawsuit if many different employees are affected by the same issue.
Should I Hire a Lawyer for Gender Harassment Claims?
Gender harassment in the workplace is a serious issue and often requires legal action. It may be in your best interests to hire an harassment attorney in your area if you need assistance with a gender harassment claim. Your attorney can research the laws to determine what course of action is most appropriate for your situation. If you need to file a claim with the EEOC or with the court, your lawyer can provide legal representation during those processes.

Steven Sotloff's apparent murder at the hands of the Islamic State (IS) came in spite of an emotional plea by his mother for the jihadist group's leader to spare his life.
Less than a week ago, Shirley Sotloff posted a video begging for Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the self-declared caliph of the IS, to show mercy towards her son.
"My son Steven is in your hands," Mrs Sotloff said in the short video. ""You, the caliph, can grant amnesty. I ask you please to release my child. I ask you to use your authority to spare his life."
The Sotloff family had requested a media blackout with no reporting on the freelance journalist's fate after he was kidnapped in northern Syria more than a year ago.
But that blackout came to an end when Mr Sotloff was hauled in front of an IS camera in the same video that showed James Foley's beheading.
In that video, Mr Foley's British-accented killer threatened to murder Mr Sotloff next if the US did not end its airstrikes against jihadist forces in Iraq.
Mrs Sotloff, 63, decided then to respond with a public video of her own, broadcast on the al-Arabiya network which is widely watched across the Middle East.
Speaking calmly and in English, she told the IS leader that her son was "an honourable man" who had devoted himself to covering "the suffering of Muslims at the hands of tyrants".
The video divided opinion.
Some experts approved, calling it a well-judged appeal to Baghdadi's sense of power couched in Islamic terms that would resonate. It was noted that the video was one of the first high-profile cases of a non-Muslim addressing the Iraqi fighter as "caliph", or Islamic ruler.
"From an emotional and a rational side, it's a brilliant move," Patrick Sinner, of the Soufan Group, a security consulting firm, told NBC.
But questions were also raised about whether the video played into the jihadist's hands, raising the profile of their hostage.
The White House declined to pass a judgement on the wisdom of the video, with a spokesman saying: "She obviously, as is evident from the video, feels desperate about the safety and well-being of her son, and understandably so."
In the end, Mrs Sotloff's appeal for the life of her son fell appears to have fallen on deaf ears.
