EVERETT, Wash. — Three days after a videotape was released that shows two Snohomish County fire commissioners making controversial comments, David Chan is fighting back. "This is a character assassination. I am being persecuted by two sentences," said Commissioner Chan.
During a break in a meeting on March 7, an open microphone captured a conversation between Chan and Commissioner Bob Meador. "Can we hire Mexican paramedics?" said Chan on the video. Meador responded, "I don't know."
Chan told Meador, "It's cheaper." Meador responded, "I don't want those immigrants. They can't do the job, you know."
In an exclusive interview with KIRO 7's Dave Wagner, Commissioner Chan said, "I admit it sounds awful. Commissioner Meador has this very dry humor, dry sense of humor. So he switches to a Stephen Colbert thing. I knew he wasn't serious."
Chan is an immigrant himself, coming to America from Hong Kong 45 years ago. He said he has pushed for diversity in the fire department and has openly advocated for recruiting paramedics outside the country. Chan said it would be more expensive to hire a private company to fill the void. "I was serious about that. But it's very sensitive issues because of the unions."
Chan said Snohomish County fire commissioners have been in negotiations with the firefighter's union for the past two years. He is not one of the commissioners endorsed by union leadership. "I didn't get one dime, one nickel from them," said Chan. He believes union leaders are trying to force him out of office. "They want to get rid of the only voice in the fire district that wants to diversify. They're recruiting someone to run against me."" said Chan.
KIRO 7 first met Chan at the Democratic National Convention last July. He was a Sanders supporter who advocated for uniting with Hillary Clinton. Today, he is facing anything but unity. "Once you've been labeled racist, nobody's gonna listen to you another word."
Chan said he was blindsided last Friday by the video and said the commission vice-chair drafted a resolution to punish him before hearing his side of the story. "That's before the meeting, before we had the chance to say one word. The last two days, it's completely ruined my life," said Chan who has since apologized.
While Chan said he is willing to go to sensitivity training, he won't step down. "No, I'm a fighter. This whole thing is basically a character assassination of me and Commissioner Meador."
Snohomish County fire commissioners are paid $104 per meeting. Chan has been a commissioner for 12 years.

Cape Town - Newcastle United have completed the loan signing of Borussia Dortmund midfielder Mikel Merino.
The 21-year-old Spanish under 21 international, who joined BVB from Osasuna in 2016, will spend the 2017/18 season with the Magpies.
He joins fellow new signings Jacob Murphy, Javier Manquillo, Christian Atsu, Florian Lejeune, Stefan O'Connor and Josef Yarney at the club.
Speaking to the club's official website, the new signing said: "It feels good and I'm very happy to be here, to be part of this club. I'm looking forward to touching the ball, meeting my new team-mates and starting to play football.
"I know it's a great club and a really nice city. I had different options but I think this is the right place for me to play."
An excited Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez added: "Mikel is a midfielder with talent, an under-21 international for Spain. He's a good size, has quality on the ball and he's very, very focused and professional.
"Hopefully he's the kind of player we can improve a lot - he certainly has the mentality to get better and better.
"He comes from a top side in Dortmund and although he did not play too much last season, he was signed as a young, talented player and to be signed by a club like that shows that he has something good. He has to show what he has, and hopefully he can enjoy playing here for a long time."

Oil Selection for Old Horizontal Mill
I am in the process of doing a freshen up of my new-to-me horizontal mill (See Thread)
The challenge of this whole thing, is I have no documentation for this mill.
I would like to change the oil in the column gearbox and the knee (and the little Z axis reservior underneath).
I was able to scrub up a manual for a much larger machine from Summit (3UH). They mention the following:
When using the machine when the temperature is under 59F, please replace the oil SHELL-TURBO 68 (TELLUS 68) with SHELL-TURBO 46 (TELLUS 46)
1. This mill resides in a shop that is heated not to freeze. This means 45F in the winter and 90+F in the summer. Should I stick with the ISO 68? Does this even seem reasonable for this type of machine? (Remember, my manual is from a much larger machine).
2. I keep seeing the DTE numbered vs DTE Light/Medium/Heavy conversations. Which is appropriate here? Know that there is a flow sightglass in the column which shows oil pump flow, but only a fill gauge in the knee (making me assume there is no pump). There is a "safety clutch" which resides in the knee. I am not sure how it works exactly, but know that clutches were one of the deciding factors between DTE numbered and DTE L/M/H.
3. The machine has a horizontal head which is just gear driven, I assume I can use this same oil in the head? Same with the little Z axis reservoir where the screw rides underneath the knee?
Thanks for any info/opinions.
We had an Italian Induma horizontal that looked similar vintage to yours (ended up in the scrap heap due to damage). It had some tags on it calling for 68 weight HD oil (Heavy/Medium) to be used in all the gearboxes around the machine including the vertical head. Mobile DTE 26 Heavy/Medium And Texaco Rando HD 68 was what we had on the shelf. We use the same oil on our Kearney Trecker 2H (similar caliber of machine).
Our Cincinatti 2L is also similar size, but it gets 64 weight HD oil (with a couple specific areas having some exception)
The only other lub our horizontals get is general purpose SAE 30 weight oil (non detergent) to oil stuff like handles, levers, and exposed metal surfaces. But the HD oil works fine for that too. The SAE stuff is just cheaper.

10-22-2019, 12:28 PM #3I keep seeing the DTE numbered vs DTE Light/Medium/Heavy conversations. Which is appropriate here?
If non hydraulic assist then for years K&T had DTE Heavy Medium in both column and knee
If known to have hyd assist like later Cincinnati, then the DTE 24 type stuff (or whatever similar DTE number lines up with ISO 68)
Hyd. assist does such things as help shift column gearing
And if so equipped, good luck on functionality after 50 years
Thanks for the responses.
M.B. Naegle: Holy Cow, thanks for the comment! I have been trying to figure out any information about this mill. You mentioned Induma and Italian and the light clicked. As you may know, Summit is simply a tool importer/rebadge company. They have NO information on this mill. All I know is it was built in italy and from 1968. I just googled Induma and you are right on! I found a couple very close counterparts already.
Sounds like I may be close with the DTE 26. I just don't know if DTE 26 or DTE Heavy/Medium is the best option.
johnoder: I have seen what you are talking about, but don't think this has anything that intricate. It seems to be a simple slide gear headstock and same with the knee. I do know that it does have a safety clutch. I believe this is for a feed crash, but don't know what the clutch is made out of, and if the EP additives of DTE 26 will be a detriment.
M.B. Naegle liked this post
So in summation, ISO 68 is reasonable, and probably fine, even with the mill likely getting under 59F.
So will DTE26 instead of Heavy/Medium be detrimental? The only reason I ask is A.) it seems to be cheaper and B.) I already use it for other machines meaning one less jug to keep around.
Appreciate the info thus far.
Might depend on the individual oil manufactures cross reference. Mobile lists their oil as BOTH DTE 26 and Heavy/Medium. I think it's all hydraulic oil in that regard.
You might also see R&O grades of oil, which to my understanding is similar but different as it is purely a "circulating" oil, where-as HD oil works in hydraulic pressure applications, and in mechanical circulation environments.
Every oil mfg. and machine mfg. is going to have their own spin on things, but from my experience the main thing you need to know is the type of oil for your application (spindle, way, hydraulic, etc.), and the grade/viscosity of it.
So from your comment "Mobile lists their oil as BOTH DTE 26 and Heavy/Medium. I think it's all hydraulic oil in that regard." Can I assume that you mean the EP additives in the DTE 26 will likely not adversely affect the mill as opposed the "Heavy/Medium" version, that I believe do not include these additives?
Discussion has raged for years. John Oder told it like it is.
At least for machine-tools:
- The "named" DTE are best for applications where fine particulates should be allowed to settle-out into some sort of sump, not be carried about. Read "most anything old", even with "basic" pumped circulation, not just splash.
- The "numbered" DTE are best where there is a filter in a pumped system, read "most things more recent.", hydraulics included.
Happens I buy mine from an aviation industry supplier, so machine-tools are not the only market.
Ohio Mike liked this post
So I got on the phone today with Mobil Industrial Lubricants. He was kind enough to explain, in much detail, the difference between the two oils. I posted a writeup in a seperate thread: DTE Numbered and DTE Named Oils - The differences explained
In short, for an old machine tool like mine, it makes no difference which oil you use. The advantages of one over another really only come into play with later model tools with sensitive clutches and more intricate hydraulic systems.
I share this not to be unappreciative of the information provided. I just wanted to clear up confusion about these products.
It was wiser Mobil Techs who explained why it mattered. Perhaps they have retired, now?
No fear. If they quit making it, we have cross-refs to others.

It's not really important if this story is true or not; if the details happened the way they were told to me or if they even happened at all.
A friend of mine was guesting at Tattoo City back in the halcyon days of Ed, Eddie, Freddy and Dan and in between tattoos a few guys came in for an appointment. He overheard them talking about a 'crazy hobo in the park, yelling poems to the pigeons' and making fun of his big bushy beard and his peculiar way of wearing layered oversized sports coats. When my buddy asked who they were there to see, they replied, enthusiastically, DANIEL HIGGS!
Higgs has had many superlatives thrown his way over the course of his 30 year career as an artist: oracular, shamanistic, enigmatic and most importantly influential.
The ripples- the vibrations- of his influence extend well past his brief stint as a tattooer and even today, some fifteen years after the publication of his all text "The Book of Antennae" his resonance is still well justified. While he's probably much more celebrated for his graphic art, his poetry and songwriting add go hand in hand with his visual output. Book of Antennae, recently reissued by Chicago's Now Testament, contains a self described 'Alphabet Sequence As Composed By Daniel Nomo Higgs' and while unlike The Doomsday Bonnet features no artwork other than the cover still deserves a place on any fan's bookshelf.

`Fit-again` Younis recalled for second Windies Test
| Updated: Aug 23, 2017 11:20 IST
Karachi [Pakistan], Oct.17 (ANI): Veteran batsman Younis Khan has been included in a 15-man Pakistan squad for the second game of the three-match Test series against West Indies, which starts from October 21 in Abu Dhabi. The 38-year-old had earlier ruled himself out of the opening match after being advised an extended rest of at least 10 days to recover fully from a bout of dengue fever that he had recently suffered and for which he needed to be hospitalized in Karachi, the Dawn reported. Younis' inclusion is the only change to the squad that is playing the ongoing first Test against the Jason Holder-led side. The Pakistan squad for the second Test is as follows: Sami Aslam, Azhar Ali, Younus Khan, Asad Shafiq, Baber Azam, Misbah-ul-Haq (captain), Sarfraz Ahmad (Wicket-keeper), Mohammad Nawaz, Yasir Shah, Zulifiqar Baber, Mohammad Amir, Wahab Riaz, Sohail Khan, Imran Khan, Rahat Ali.

IHS Markit Cinema Intelligence has now added a dynamic Market Tracker for the cinema industry in China. This is a quarterly Market Tracker and aimed at giving subscribers access to the latest data and thoughts on key trends in the Chinese cinema industry.
The Chinese cinema market in the first nine months of 2017 is performing well after a disappointing 2016, driven by a few hits. Local title, Wolf Warriors 2 (2017), became China's highest hit of 2017 and also of all time, grossing RMB 5.6 billion ($862.7 million). Hollywood film, Fast and Furious 8, comes in as the second highest in 2017 to date. The total box office in the first three quarters reached RMB 42.6 billion ($6.4 billion), a 20% growth over the same period of the previous year. Screen growth is still dynamic in 2017, with approximately 4,951 new screens added in the first half of 2017, or 27.5 screens per day, a similar rate to 2016.
According to IHS Markit, the cinema market in China will see a less dynamic future than the previous years of high growth, but there will still be growth. Its low screen density and low average admissions per head suggest there is still room to grow compared to its counterparts. The screen expansion will continue to grow but will slow down in pace, as screen construction works its way down the tiers of cities. New-build cinemas are more located in smaller cities where cinemas are smaller in size and ticket prices are lower.
More market trends and analysis can be found in the Q2 Market Tracker, and the Q3 data will be updated shortly.

ABC Companies Offers Emergency Guide For Clients
The U.S. seller of Van Hool motorcoaches recently distributed this advisory about its operations and crisis resources.
In the post-Town Car era, limousine operators have plenty of choices for a successor vehicle. As of this year, there are more chauffeured vehicles to choose from on the market than at any other time in the history of the limousine industry.
Manufacturers are selling diverse vehicles at all price ranges with all sorts of technology and mechanical upgrades that boost performance and save a bit on fuel.
But where do you go if you want the same attributes and amenities that the longtime and officially retired Lincoln Town Car Executive L offered? The new industry reality is that if you want a traditional, roomy V-8 sedan with all the trappings, you will have to pay much more for it in the new chauffeured vehicle market.
With enhanced V-6 engines now considered the new V-8s, you have to go with a premium sedan for a genuine V-8, along the likes of a BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi or even a Jaguar. With BMW pricing incentives, the costs of the 2012 and 2013 750Li models will fall into the mid-to-upper $70,000s. The BMW 750Li provides most of the attributes of the Town Car Executive L, with the BMW engineering and performance, but costs about twice as much.
For operators with a strong premium sedan client base, the BMW 750Li is a fleet shoe-in. Just take it and drive. For operators with clients who want the Town Car experience and price, well, you'll have to do some strenuous arithmetic to make it happen at competitive price levels (See accompanying chart).
One operator told me the BMW 750Li was the most comfortable rear seat of any vehicle he sampled during the 2012 International LCT Show in Las Vegas: "It meets all of the requirements of a chauffeured customer of the Town Car and what people expect. It's big, comfortable, and has a boardroom feel."
So let's pretend we live in a perfect chauffeured world, where the BMW 750Li can work as a primary fleet vehicle; a world in which all clients are upper level executives or CEOs, clients routinely ask for and can afford a BMW, and the economy is back to Reagan/Clinton proportions with 4-5% average annual GDP growth and 4-5% unemployment. Driving the BMW 750Li makes you fancifully dream of how good things can be.
The luxury sedan engages and pleases on many chauffeured fronts:
Rear compartment: The Li (long body) 7 series is about six inches longer than comparable BMW 7-series vehicles, with all of the extra length devoted to the rear passenger compartment. The rear door is also six inches longer for easier access. That means 44 inches of rear seat legroom, while dual triangle-block footrests, window sun shades, a wide rear armrest, cup holders, rear climate and entertainment controls complete the chauffeured experience. LCT measured the maximum right rear seat legroom from the bottom edge of the seat to the edge of the right front seat pitched all the way forward at: 25 in.
Trunk: LCT measured the rear trunk at 33 in. at its widest; 43 in. at its longest; and 20 in. at its tallest. Luggage space is moderate compared to the Town Car. Two complete luggage sets plus carry-ons are a squeeze, but posssible.
Ride: The V-8 engine — with normal, comfort and two sport modes of operation — results in a powerful, quiet engine allowing hushed, smooth accelerations.
Safety: Back-up cameras and collision/sideswipe sensors warn chauffeurs about scraping everything from a garbage can, to other vehicles, posts, high curbs and even trees and shrubs. In my test drive, the sensor beeper warning got hysterical about weeds and ferns brushing the side.
Solid moves: Swerves and cloverleaf exiting are not much of an issue, as this grounded but nimble sedan combines the right balance of wheel size, tire width, traction control, weight, suspension, and gravity centering.
Understatement: The BMW 750Li, regardless of color, does not automatically communicate "limo," but still boldly states its upscale, unpretentious luxury brand. That allows for a premium luxury experience with enough traffic anonymity for the discriminating CEO or VIP who wants to travel securely in style, unnoticed.
The BMW 750Li may be out of rate reach for mid-level chauffeured transportation service, but it sets the highest standard for a chauffeured sedan. As is often the case in the luxury retail and service sectors, you get what you pay for: Price matches value. And high luxury standards and values will always be needed for limousine vehicles, whether they are achieved in dreams — or in reality.
Facts & Stats: BMW 750Li

The 7 series is a nice car. It is close to the S-class or A8L as a limo, while being a bit cheaper. If it were me, though, I would go after the 740Li as it's a bit cheaper on the initial purchase and better on fuel economy. And the turbocharged I6 would give more power than a chauffeur should use in even spirited driving. The rest of the car has little or no change and a client would be hard pressed to know the difference.

- Published: Tuesday, January 01, 2013 02:59 PM
On Wednesday, April 2, a group of Senators introduced the School Funding Reform Act of 2014, a proposal to streamline the current hodgepodge of funding sources into one funding formula that will account for school districts' funding needs.
Illinois has the second-most inequitable school funding system in the nation, and that funding system is doing a disservice to taxpayers, school districts and, most importantly, our children. The proposed funding system will better address student needs, such as socio-economic background, language ability or special learning needs, while also accounting for a school district's ability to raise funds locally. You can read more about the bill by clicking here.

Martin Luther spent his entire pastoral career mining the depths of the cross and applying it to his people. He loved to think about, sing about, write about, and preach about the cross. His whole theological program was cross-centered. Listen to a few of these quotes from Luther.
"He deserves to be called a theologian, however, who comprehends the visible and manifest things of God seen through suffering and the cross."[1]
"Now it is not sufficient for anyone, and it does him no good to recognize God in his glory and majesty, unless he recognizes him in the humility and shame of the cross…for this reason true theology and recognition of God are in the crucified Christ" (emphasis mine).[2]
"God can be found only in suffering and the cross"(emphasis mine).[3]
"Christ must be apprehended as man, before he is apprehended as God; and the cross of his humanity must be sought after and known, before we know the glory of his divinity."[4]
"The cross alone is our theology."[5]
These statements capture the heart of Luther's theology. The cross alone is the starting point and shape of all theology. Alister McGrath sums up this emphasis in Luther's thinking.
"For Luther, Christian thinking about God comes to an abrupt halt at the foot of the cross. The Christian is forced by the very existence of the crucified Christ, to make a momentous decision. Either he will seek God elsewhere, or he will make the cross itself the foundation and criterion for his thought about God. The 'crucified God' –to use Luther's daring phrase—is not merely the foundation of the Christian faith, but is also the key to a proper understanding of the nature of God. The Christian can only speak about the glory, the wisdom, the righteousness and the strength God as they are revealed in the crucified Christ…for Luther, the sole authentic locus of man's knowledge of God is the cross of Christ, in which God is to be found revealed, and yet paradoxically hidden in that revelation" (emphasis mine).[6]

Amadou & Mariam - Welcome To Mali
Review by Jack Foley
THE presence of Damon Albarn on Amadou and Mariam's sixth album, Welcome To Mali, is another master-stroke given the extra appeal it'll undoubtedly lend it.
Fans of African music, too, are in for a treat as this blind couple really do take their sound to a new level of popularity for world music – adding rap and string sections, a little reggae and even a French pop star.
Occasionally, the combination of sounds and influences sounds dizzying and threatens to strip away Amadou and Mariam's own sense of identity. But the joy evident in their vocals is enough to suggest that they don't care – so neither should we.
In truth, 16 tracks is a long journey and it won't be to everyone's tastes. But there's no denying that when the album catches light, listeners of every persuasion should enjoy basking in its glow.
Album opener and former single Sabali is especially brilliant, a song produced by Damon Albarn that trades Amadou's trademark guitar for a synth-based pulse that's utterly vibrant. Mariam's distinct warble-like vocal provides a stunning, almost playfully innocent, accompaniment – but it's a song that's every bit as comfortable on a popular dancefloor as it is on the world music stage of a forum such as the BBC's Electric Proms.
Albarn's influence proves mercurial and will undoubtedly enable this African duo to broaden their appeal still further.
Albarn participates again on Ce N'est Pas Bon, which reinstates some strong guitar work and thrives on its mix of boy-girl vocals and upbeat rhythms.
There's traces of reggae influences on Djama, another track that effortlessly fuses genres, while Djuru adopts a lazy hip-hop beat that the likes of Akon would be proud of.
Juan Rozoff adds some strong vocals to another collaborative highlight, Je Te Kiffe, while there's a real vibrancy to the fusion of sounds (both acoustic and electric) that makes up Masiteladi (some of the guitar work could even grace the soundtrack of a spaghetti western or a Tarantino movie).
Look out, too, for the loopy, almost hysterical Africa, featuring Knaan, and the romanticism of the piano-tinged I Follow You.
As a complete album, Welcome To Mali might still struggle to appeal to a lot of tastes, but in its very best moments it throws out a warm and very welcoming embrace. It's well worth giving a go.
Download picks: Je Te Kiffe, Masiteladi, I Follow You, Ce N'est Pas Bon, Sabali

Come 2013, Dan Le Sac and Scroobius Pip will be joining forces again to create a new album. But in the meantime, Mr. Pip's been working on his own solo thing, and will be releasing his solo punk/rock/hip-hop-infused album, 'Distraction Pieces', on September 19th. (Click here to pre-order).
An early version of a track from the album, called 'Let Em Come', premiered on Zane Lowe's Radio 1 show last night. But if you missed it, fret not. We've got it right here.
'Let Em Come' (the final cut will feature Sage Francis), was Scroobius Pip's inspiration to make the album in the first place. "I had the lyrics in mind and the general feel," he says. "The rumbling, ever present, synth line, the pounding live drums, the cutting guitars. Vocally it's hard to sum up but I guess it's about sticking at something that you are passionate about past those exciting first few years, and keeping that passion despite the obstacles and pitfalls."
We've also got an exclusive first crack at Kevin Devine's new tune, as remixed by M83's Morgan Kibby (aka White Sea). '11-17' is taken from Devine's forthcoming album, 'Between The Concrete And Clouds' (out next month via Big Scary Monsters Records). Give it a spin below:

An ACT-based approach to coaching uses the term, "getting stuck" to refer to psychological inflexibility, the root cause of failing to take values-congruent action. I love the notion of getting stuck versus having a mental disorder, because it's both very forgiving and a great fit for coaching. Everybody gets stuck at times: you, me, our clients. When we get stuck in a rut, we can't move forward. It's like having a beautiful car that gets stuck on a patch of ice; it just spins its wheels and gets nowhere. When we get stuck, we also spend a lot of time spinning our wheels and going nowhere. Helping clients get unstuck by using ACT principles and practices frees them up and gets them moving forward again. ACT-based coaching proposes that there are six key factors (called core processes by ACT) that contribute to psychological inflexibility and getting stuck:
Attachment to the conceptualized self (self-as-content view)
Cognitive fusion (over-identification with one aspect of conceptualized self)
Dominance of outmoded scripts and learning (being hooked into believing unhelpful versions of one's conceptualized self)
Experiential avoidance (avoiding values-congruent action)
Lack of clarity of values
Inaction, impulsivity, and rigidity.
These key factors contribute to clients getting stuck by limiting their ability to deal with situations in new and creative ways. When clients are inflexible, they have fewer options available to help themselves overcome barriers and make progress meeting their values-based goals.We can help our coaching clients get unstuck by applying the same core process that ACT therapists use to help their therapy clients. The major difference is that our clients do not have diagnosed mental disorders and in many cases are already functioning at very high levels.The six core processes used to help coaching clients get unstuck are :
Being present (developing mindfulness)
Defining valued directions (values clarification)
Taking committed action (acting on values-congruent goals)
Seeing the self as context (we are more than our thoughts)
Practicing acceptance
Practicing cognitive defusion (stepping back and observing unhelpful thoughts).
Remember, your coaching clients do not have diagnosed mental disorders; they are just stuck.
My AC Coaching Course will show you how to integrate these six core processes and help them become more psychologically flexible by using easy to learn techniques derives from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

One of the important questions related to any integral transform on a manifold M or on a homogeneous space G/K is the description of the image of a given space of functions. If M=G/K, where (G,K) is a Gelfand pair, then harmonic analysis on M is closely related to the representations of G and the direct integral decomposition of L^2(M) into irreducible representations of G. R^n can be realized as the quotient R^n=E(n)/SO(n), where E(n) is the orientation preserving Euclidean motion group. The pair (E(n), SO(n)) is a Gelfand pair. Hence this realization of R^n comes with its own natural Fourier transform derived from the representation theory of E(n). The representations of E(n) that are in the support of the Plancherel measure for L^2(R^n) are parameterized by R^+. We describe the image of smooth compactly supported functions under the Fourier transform with respect to the spectral parameter. Then we discuss an extension of our description to projective limits of corresponding function spaces.

Seegene said Monday that it has started to conduct the clinical trials of its Allplex Entero-DR Assay, an intestinal bacterial antibiotic resistance screening test reagent, at 23 hospitals under the Italian society of microbiology.
According to the Grand View Research, a U.S. research firm, the global hospital-acquired infection (HAI) diagnostic market will reach $11.6 billion by 2022. About 600,000 people contract HAI every year in the United States and Europe, and 150,000 die from the infection. Most HAI comes from antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Experts estimate that in 2050, deaths due to antibiotic resistance will reach 10 million people per year.
Currently, hospitals conduct antibiotic resistance testing using the traditional method of "culture screening." The method uses a selective medium specific for the bacteria and cultures it for a day. Afterward, if the bacterium grows the hospital starts identifying the bacteria.
The process takes three days to confirm the genotype of the resistance through molecular diagnosis.
However, such a process takes away the advantages of molecular diagnostics, such as accuracy and promptness. And although molecular diagnostic screening tests can remove such barriers, its introduction into the medical market has not followed due to the prejudice that these tests were expensive and complicated.
To overcome such problems, Seegene released the world's first molecular diagnostics reagent that can screen eight kinds of antibiotic genes -- KPC, NDM, VIM, IMP, OXA-48, CTX-M, VanA and VanB – specific to Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), with Florence University Hospital in Italy.
Another competitive advantage of this reagent is that it uses specific genes in the body as internal control agents, the company said.
This method enables medical professionals to monitor the error of the inspection process from sampling, which in turn, can improve the accuracy of the results.
Based on such strengths, the company has signed a supply contract with Treviso Hospital in Italy and has gained a good response from the market.
"The company also owns a simultaneous multi-technology and large-scale automated inspection system, which can lower the test price and easily conduct mass inspections compared to the conventional cultivation method," Seegene CEO Chun Jong-yoon said. "With this single reagent, we expect to enter the $3.6 billion HAI diagnostic market."

It was after Judd returned from the navy that he met Kyndall. They were introduced by their mutual best friends… who happened to be married. It was inevitable that Judd and Kyndall would get along, after all… they already shared a huge common denominator of friendship. While Kyndall resisted initially, it wasn't long before she and Judd both realized they were meant to be together.
Flash forward several years to February. Judd had a plan to propose. He had thought it out perfectly and couldn't wait to surprise Kyndall. He was going to cook a romantic home cooked meal and ask her to marry him on Valentines day which also happened to be their first date seven years before. Unfortunately, Judd and Kyndall both came down with a horrible cold virus. Despite this, Judd knew that he still wanted the most important part of his plan to happen.
Although she was still feeling under the weather, Judd insisted that Kyndall open her gifts for Valentines Day. Judd handed her a present that contained a t-shirt that said "Future Mrs. Morgan" and then following that asked her to marry him! Looking back on his proposal, Kyndall recalls it as absolutely perfect and said she wouldn't have wanted it any other way.
I loved photographing Judd and Kyndall's wedding day. From Judd instantly embracing her during their first look to their sweet and funny all at the same time ceremony, it was a wonderful day. While I could go on and on about it, I'll let the photographs speak for themselves. Congratulations Judd and Kyndall, I hope you're having an incredible time in Scottsdale!

I am assuming that the developers allow that people record gameplay footage of Offworld Trading Company and upload it to YouTube, Twitch and similar platforms (after all, there's even a YouTube playlist stickied in this forum...). But is there any website or online resource to point people towards (and for peace of mind)? And what is the developer's stance on monetization practices and commercial use of video game footage?

Spartacus Blood and Sand - 113 - Kill Them All
As expected this was a very satisfying finale. The moment when Spartacus leapt off Crixus' shield to start the rebellion was pure comic book freeze frame. But as in keeping with the strength of the show that moment of beautiful cinematography was also part of excellent storytelling. After eleven episodes of build-up within the ludus suddenly the slaves stood over their masters and exacted revenge.
Until the end Lucretia and Batiatus remained well rounded characters, showing favour to some slaves and friends, sharing a deep affection for one another and of course being deeply greedy and immoral as well. They very much sowed the seeds of their own downfall all season but specifically by messing with Ilithyia and Crixus here they caused their own downfall. Other highlights were the disturbing fury of Varro's widow Aurelia and Crixus finally putting his ego aside and acknowledging Spartacus' worth.
I wish I had time to review every episode of Spartacus: Blood and Sand it deserves it. But sadly I don't. I do want to end on two notes though. One is to say to other shows that they should learn from what made this season so strong. The three specific reasons were:
1. Episodic Television
So many complicated dramas forget the power of an episode focussed on a single event or single character. Of course multiple plot strands need to be weaved along the way but Spartacus showed the way here by building each episode around one event. The show was so successful and memorable because each episode felt like an event, important in itself and worthy of a viewers full attention. The build-up to the battle with Theocoles, the twist endings with Ilithyia's sexual encounter with Spartacus and then Varro's death will all stick with me as superb moments amongst others.
2. Characterisation
My favourite moment of the whole season was (no joking) Lucretia agreeing not to give Crixus a blowjob. He was her property, she ordered him to do something, he had no right to obey. Yet because she genuinely loved him she was more than happy to grant his request for more rest in the hopes that he might go on living. It was a touching moment and showed off the deep emotions being stirred up by his impending showdown with Theocoles. All season the masters and slaves showed each other relatable human affection. Lucretia loved Crixus, appreciated Naevia, had deep affection and loyalty toward Batiatus and at one stage a genuine friendship with Ilithyia. Similarly Batiatus had great respect for Doctore and Spartacus and something bordering on admiration for Ashur. On and on down the list each character had believable and understandable friendships with other slaves, masters and gladiators. Never did I think a character was being written in a simplistic fashion. It was an object lesson in how to make characters seem real.
3. Creating their own universe
Just as important as those friendships was the sense that this Roman world was real and appreciably different to our own. The way Doctore and Crixus, right till the end, continued to find honour in this world was fascinating. They were slaves forced to do battle for sport and entertainment. Their fickle masters and supporters cared little for their actual well being, yet these men created a code of honour to imbue their actions with meaning and significance. Similarly upstairs Batiatus had to always play within the confines of acceptable behaviour when guests were coming round. He put his slaves back in their place, paraded them around and sometimes had to order them to do humiliating things. This despite the relationships which he developed with them when no one else was around. It all fitted together to paint the picture of the stratified Roman society and the convincing fury at those who broke convention was consistently portrayed. I could of course go into greater detail but the consistency of the portrayal of life at the ludus built the foundation upon which the drama launched off from.
The second of my points is a warning about the future. Rome and Prison Break both had successful first seasons which they were unable to sustain. Rome like Spartacus portrayed historical events and once Julius Caesar was dead the story became much more complicated to tell. Season two therefore lacked the focus and intensity of the first. Meanwhile on Prison Break, Michael Schofield and company were in a situation very similar to Spartacus. In a world with strict rules and boundaries each action that breaches those rules has immediate consequences. Once they left the prison those rules were no longer in place to keep the drama grounded and season two was a sprawling mess.
As Spartacus leads the slaves out into the Roman countryside the show's producers will have to work hard to maintain the strength of storytelling they have kept up so far. I don't want to spoil anyone who doesn't know the historical story but of course there will be large battles in the show's future. It will be hard to keep the same level of intensity that was possible with one-on-one fights. Sadly Andy Whitfield (Spartacus) has been diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma so there is an outside chance that Spartacus may not come back for a second season. I don't know any more details so beyond wishing him all the best I won't comment further. I will just say that Season One was a huge success and proof that you shouldn't judge a TV show by its pilot.
Breaking Bad - 305 - Mas
Breaking Bad - 305 - Mas
I don't want to harp on it because I spent the last post talking about it a lot. But one weakness of Breaking Bad is that I don't think it can pull off humour. Here Walt stands up from his closet hiding place and the tiny chair he was sitting on sticks to his butt and then falls off. It was a fun moment but I couldn't laugh. The show is so dark now that (for me) humour just bounces off it, unable to penetrate the seriousness of what is going on. I thought this was emphasised by the strip club flashback. It reminded you of a time when the show had a sense of hope to it. A sense that maybe Jesse and Walt might find some happiness from their partnership. Now it seems like there is no hope left.
The strip club flashback was really well written. Most viewers needed the reminder of who Combo was and how his story now connected Hank back to Jesse. Hank is now going through the stage which Walt was going through in season two. He is so determined to complete his work that he has stopped communicating with those around him. The story of Walt's life is such a compelling reality check. Thanks to him Hank's career and marriage are being badly damaged. Now Skyler is becoming corrupted by the money. We have seen her twice now have to think about what Walt has been through and momentarily wonder if maybe he had some kind of reasonable justification (here it is Marie talking about how seeing death had changed Hank). Now with Walt moving out perhaps she will begin to forgive him.
Of course that forgiveness will keep her fatally close to him as the net closes in. Gus Frings offer to give Walt his own meth lab was a beautiful thing. All through the early parts of the season Walt was a sympathetic figure. He was dying of cancer and just wanted to provide for his family. The one question always hanging over him was why he was "just" a teacher. It was never made clear why Walt didn't take his skills and ambition and make a better career for himself (after leaving his partnership at Grey Matter). Whether it was stubbornness or his own failings wasn't entirely clear but his frustration with that situation was.
Frings offer was built around Walt's desire to provide for his children. But the subtext was just as fascinating. Finally someone was offering Walt a job which conferred status upon him. Finally someone had put down resources just to secure his talent. Even in this most grubby of professions Walt was being recognised as a man of great skill. It was pure seduction and Walt fell for it. Now he has three months to live. Presumably Frings will learn his formula and then the cousins will move in for the kill.
The show is about to get more intense and even darker.
Community - 121 - Contemporary American Poultry
Community is hands down the most innovative and fun comedy to watch on TV right now. I didn't say the funniest, but definitely the most fun. It's the one show that I really wish I could have reviewed in full this year because it has been trying so many new things each week. Lots of comedies go in for parodies and my consistent complaint is that they don't take it far enough. So many shows do a half hearted parody, enough so you will get the reference but not so much that they really entertain you.
I have no such complaints about this episode. The writers took the Goodfellas and Godfather style mafia parody all the way through Greendale and to a conclusion all about Abed's character. The detail work was excellent making chicken into the drug which propelled the gang to new levels of greed. The writing made use of all the smaller characters and didn't let up on the parody until the final scene. It was a daring idea, executed with real confidence and once more I marvel at Abed, a comedy character who allows for the flexibility needed to make these crazy plots seem just about believable.
On the other hand there is a downside to this. The parody was so detailed that it moved too fast. Abed's first act as fry cook was to exchange chicken for a bump in grades for the whole study group. That is behavior which could get them all into deep trouble and yet Britta, Annie and Shirley all go along with when it seems like something which would instantly set off their moral codes. As the parody develops this gets worse of course, to the point where the gang fawn over Abed in a way which though conforming to the parody doesn't seem like believable behavior. Finally the conclusion to the plot which tries to tie Jeff and Abed's characters together and expose something meaningful about both just didn't have time to develop properly. It didn't help that we just had a plot about Jeff's issues (119) and about Abed's inability to relate to others (117).
Community is being so clever each week that it feels stupid to tell them to slow down. But to be the best comedy ever I would want them to slow down, focus on believable character stories and try and draw out the big laughs rather than cramming in so many little moments. But if they did that maybe the show wouldn't be so much fun to watch?
Party Down - 201 - Jackal Onassis Backstage Party
I haven't written about Party Down before but I did watch all of season one, enjoyed it a bit and saw the other critics heaping praise on it. The show has taken the ultra real approach to comedy and gone for a somewhat negative and downbeat tone. It's a world of people who wish they weren't doing the job they are doing and serving others who are equally miserable. It was always going to be tough for the show to please me, someone who likes my comedy to uplift me. But I appreciate a well structured joke as much as anyone and am still watching, so it must be doing something right.
The thing which I dislike most about the show is hapless ex-boss Ron. It's a credit to how much goodness and hope he injects into the role that I find it so unpleasant to see him get constantly humiliated. It would seem that the show intends to put the band back together and we will presumably end up with Ron working for Henry which might be a fun dynamic. I found the show was always solid at setting up a good episodic plot but not always great at delivering on jokes.
That basic feeling stuck with me here as Jackal Onassis (essentially Marilyn Manson) swaps places with Roman for the night. I didn't think Jackal was very convincing in the role and that brought the whole episode down a notch in believability. He was just too nice and too normal at times that it felt contrived. But the basic premise of Roman still being unable to impress any women despite being dressed as a huge star was a fun idea. The tension between Henry and Casey was always going to be the major running story and as ever they played their parts well.
We'll see how well Megan Mullally fits in and whether the show sticks rigidly to its formula or goes somewhere different.

Enterprise Service Bus open APIs integration advantage
How an Enterprise Service Bus and open APIs will give credit unions the integration advantage
July 24, 2018
Open APIs are being mentioned a lot lately in financial services circles. And it often gets coupled with words like 'revolutionary' and 'game-changer.'
And that's exactly what it could be for Canadian credit unions.
The use of open APIs - specifications of how software components should interact - can make it easier for developers to create software that can easily integrate with other systems. Open APIs enable financial institutions to easily connect and plug in new functionality to their core banking platform, allowing them to deploy new financial tools to their customers and provide new end-user experiences.
In the current environment of standardized interfaces and fast integration, credit unions will be able to leverage open APIs to roll out new digital capabilities just as fast, or even faster, than a bigger player. And the cooperative nature of credit unions can help accelerate this journey.
An Enterprise Service Bus will become the API connection hub for credit unions
Digital transformation and APIs have further complicated the challenge of integrating disparate systems. In order to deliver new products and services, you need to connect systems, data and devices. The challenge now lies in the point-to-point integration of systems and how you avoid creating a convoluted web of connections.
This is the problem Celero developers were challenged with when asked how to leverage open APIs within our current digital eco-system. Their answer was to follow
CUFX standards
and create an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) that can seamlessly connect secure platforms with scalable financial applications from
Celero's fintech partners
The ESB is a connectivity layer, designed to dramatically simplify how systems talk to each other and work together. Rather than build specific system-to-system interfaces, the ESB allows different systems that speak different languages to still exchange data quickly.
"We see the limitless potential that fintech integration and open APIs can bring to the financial services industry and we have readied ourselves to help Canadian credit unions take advantage of them," said Simon Vincent, executive vice president of Banking and Omnichannel Solutions and Services at Celero. "Our digital integration capabilities will improve speed to market for customized and third party fintech applications and can fast track a credit unions omnichannel strategy."
How does a credit union connect to the ESB and take advantage of open APIs?
Collaboration is key to unlocking more solutions from more partners. As credit unions, fintech partners and new customized applications connect to the ESB, the more powerful the tool will become. As it grows, it will enable a new suite of digital solutions and ultimately, empower credit unions to control how they provide ubiquitous member-access to their financial products.
A collaborative ESB can become a powerful competitive advantage for Canadian credit unions. Reliable and secure core banking capabilities, coupled with a digital ecosystem that allows plug and play integration with the latest financial technology.
Celero's ESB is already in production. The complete integration solution will be launched this fall. Learn more about how your credit union can leverage the ESB to connect fintech vendors to your core banking and other applications as well as more details on this exciting new solution at the
Celero Fintech Conference
in Whistler, BC, Sept 25 – 28.

When the Iphone 4 was unveiled in June of 2010, it was not without the need of it's share of glitches. The very first claimed glitch was with the Iphone 4's wireless 3G antenna. This was suspected to cause poor reception and a substantial quantity of dropped calls. The next claimed issue was with the Apple iphone 4's proxy sensor. Apple tackled this problem on the software package degree, with the release of iOS 4.1.
Because the iOS 4.1 launch, there have been quite a few thoughts as to no matter if or not the update solved the Iphone 4 proxy sensor challenge as soon as and for all. From my very own experience, I have not experienced any grievances given that this program update was created community.
Some of you may be pondering, "What in the world is a proxy sensor is and what function does it serve?" Without finding as well included, each Iphone (which includes the first Iphone 2G, 3G and 3GS styles) have a ratio sensor. This sensor emits an infrared (IR) mild that detects the presence of a reliable object (these as a head or hand), though you have a connect with in development, or although you are listening to a voicemail. When it detects a good item, it turns your Apple iphone's Lcd panel off. This is a functionality you'll almost certainly never miss right until it's no longer working.
The functionality of the proxy sensor really has two distinctive benefits. First, you are not muting your telephone, accidently pushing buttons, or hanging up on your callers with your cheek. The other edge is that it preserves electrical power use and increases your phone's battery life in between charging cycles.
As an Apple Accredited Macintosh Technician who tends to make a dwelling supporting and correcting Apple goods, this is an challenge that could not be ignored. The track record of my small business hung in the equilibrium of currently being ready to locate a reputable and qualified answer for this challenge. I've performed in depth research and tests on this subject and feel like I've built a sizeable headway in resolving this bothersome glitch ..
In the 4 decades that I've been restoring iPhones, it's only been a short while ago that I've been dealing with the difficulties that have been widely documented and described. Since the release of iOS 4.1, I have not observed any instances in which the Apple iphone's proxy sensor malfunctioned on a phone that had not been modified. When I say "modified" I imply a cell phone that has gone through a coloration conversion, or a single that the entrance glass and Liquid crystal display had been replaced thanks to the phone currently being dropped and owning the primary glass broken. I discovered that the incidence was a lot more following soon after a colour conversions experienced been executed.
Since the proxy sensor on the Apple iphone 4 is situated on the Iphone's mid-frame and is not a section of the front glass and Lcd assembly, I had by no means questioned the quality of the parts I was getting. With that in intellect, I commenced tests every cell phone prior to maintenance. I wished to be absolutely sure that the telephones were working appropriately, prior to repairs, or colour conversions currently being produced. So considerably, I have however to find a person that was not working just good prior to the restore. It turns out, the issue was attributed to two components.
1. The exceptional sensitivity of each and every iPhones proxy sensor.
2. The proxy sensor address on some of the substitution glass is not tinted as darkish. This makes it possible for far too significantly mild to go via.
I've go through above lots of posts and weblogs that suggest applying black tape with holes punched out, or a black magic marker to cover the Apple iphone's proxy sensor. I did not really feel that possibly of these fixes available a expert option, or a person that I would even be happy to hire in my apply.
Immediately after talking with my pieces distributor, I discovered the finest option for this challenge is an affordable "sensor go over." This include is a smaller piece of film with a coating that seems to be the same pink polarized coating on some sunglasses. This tiny piece of film is set up more than the best of the Iphone's proxy sensor.
At the conclude of the day, it would surface that far too much light-weight is obtaining in and confusing the phone. The proxy sensor cover filters excessive light from entering the cellphone and there by solves the challenge.

Well, the Goodby Silverstein & Partners moniker has long been shortened to "Goodby" by many in the industry, since, you know, that's what the cool kids do. But it's all come at the cost of Silverstein, whose years building the agency alongside Jeff Goodby go unacknowledged when we start throwing the latter's last name around.That's where the Chrome extension comes in, as it changes the agency's name to "Silverstein Goodby & Partners" anytime it appears online. For those who can empathize with his plight, there's hope for you, too, as the extension also works for a number of other agencies and companies (Kennedy + Wieden, Jerry & Ben's and ODBB are just a few). "It totally levels the playing field," said Goodby Silverstein & Partners chief creative officer Margaret Johnson. "Now the Silversteins of the world can have their day."In a tongue-in-cheek video, "SG&P" introduces the extension as if its the latest tech innovation we've all been waiting for. While the majority of the video borders on satire, it concludes with some sweet "happy birthday" shout-outs, including a particularly heartfelt one from none other than Goodby himself.

• Leverage—you fix up the house and the neighbourhood rises
in value. This is the "Buy, add value while paying down the
debt and sell" method.
• Multiple arbitrage—you buy by borrowing other people's
money. You develop the house as well as wait for the value
of the neighbourhood to rise. This is the "Buy, arbitrage and
sell" method.
Growth is when the fund pays 5 times the earnings and a
few years down the road, sells at 7 times earnings and they are
happy with that as they have made some money. The fund may
pay 7 times earnings, knowing that there is the ability to grow the
company at 10% over the next 4 years. Would you be satisfied if
you buy a house, live in it for five years, pay the bills and value of
the neighbourhood goes up by 10%? It does give you a reliably
solid profit.
One CEO irritated by the use of EBITDA (earnings before
interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization—see glossary)
declared his company to be worth a multiple of 13 times, thus
assuming that he can grow his company at 23% a year. That is
how valuation works—future earnings potential of the company.
If you bring in partners and are confident that you can grow
your business at 23% per year over the next 5 years, by all
means expect such a steep multiple. Otherwise—now that you
understand how debt is used as one of the key value levers much
like buying a house—you can see how funds would be challenged
to see future profits.
Valuation Methods
The valuation methods used depends on your company's
stage of development.
For example, seed and
early stage companies
are valued upon the
basis of how much
hard capital you have injected into the business. Factors such
as intellectual value, so-called 'sweat equity' and opportunity
cost, come into play. Previous successful involvement in a private
equity supported venture will enhance your appeal to the investor.
Companies at the expansion stage will be valued differently.
Investors may base their valuation on comparable company
multiples of sales. Further down the spectrum late stage
companies will most likely be valued on the basis of comparable
earnings multiples. At the end of the day the key factor that the
investor will focus on is predictable future growth and from that,
