We are thrilled to announce that Elly Zupko will be York University's third International Ada Lovelace Day speaker on Monday 23rd October 2017 at 12:30pm in the York University Senate Chamber.
From "That Shirt" to "That Other Shirt" — Finding Ways to Honor the
Trailblazing Women of the Past & Future
In 2014, Elly led the enormously successful Kickstarter campaign to put pictures of women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) on t-shirts, as a positive response to the infamous 2014 incident, that saw Matt Taylor, a leading European Space Agency scientist, appear on global TV wearing a shirt covered with nearly naked women.
Elly will talk about the incredible journey that the #WomenAreAllOverIt campaign has taken her on. This includes how her #ThatOtherShirt led her to found a non-profit that uses the proceeds from sales of her shirts to support programming in Equity, Diversity and Inclusivity.

Elly will also speak at University of Toronto at Scarborough Campus on Tuesday 24th October, hosted by Professor Maydianne Andrade, Vice-Dean of Faculty Affairs & Equity.
Tuesday 24th October — 12:30-1:30 pm, Humanities Wing, HW 305, UTSC
On Wednesday evening, Elly will speak in downtown Toronto, at Ryerson University, hosted by the Faculty of Science and the School of Fashion in the Faculty of Communication and Design.
Wednesday 25th October — 6:30-7:30 pm International Room in the International Living Learning Centre, 240 Jarvis Street, Ryerson University
Elly's talk follows Ryerson University Science Dean Imogen Coe's 2015 Ada Lovelace Day talk, All About STEMinism, and astronomer, Professor Bryan Gaensler's 2016 talk about how men can be allies to Women in STEM.
Annual Ada Lovelace day events give us an entrance point for work aimed at recognizing the frequently ignored contributions of women to STEM.
If Elly Zupko inspires you to take action in support of Women in STEM, please join us at York University, Keele Campus, for our third Wikipedia Editathon on Thursday October 26th, 10 am- 5 pm. Drop by the basement of Steacie Library, from 5 minutes to 5 hours, and help to create Wikipedia pages about Women in STEM. My project this year, was to create a page for my colleague, University of British Columbia and Environment Canada, ornithologist, Prof. Kathy Martin. But, since I got ahead of myself, I will start making Wikipedia pages for Elly, Dean Imogen Coe (Ryerson) and Vice-Dean Maydianne Andrade (UTSC)!
Kathy can be seen, at left, in August 2017. Kathy is holding copies of the book, Watershed Red, that she recently completed, when I first met her in 1981, while we were doing field work on Hudson Bay. Kathy was studying Willow Ptarmigan, for her PhD, and I was first an undergraduate field assistant, and then an MSc graduate student. Kathy has gone on to become one of the world's top ornithologists. She needs a Wikipedia page about her achievements and I'm going to make her one in October.

Erik Kubik Says It came from beyond the grave! After a few weeks and some setbacks, we have new information obtained secretly from our mole about the Goozex Exchange. It is happening again this Friday, October 2nd 2009 (that's today). The idea behind the Goozex Exchange is to provide a wonderful opportunity for Goozex members to receive newly released DVDs and Video Games in exchange for their points. This adds value to the Goozex Experience beyond trading games and movies. The G-Team is hoping the Goozex Exchange is as successful as the last one and becomes a long running regular monthly feature.
There are a few new restrictions, taken from the official thread on the Goozex forums. Members can only purchase 1 copy of a product. They can only make one purchase per month (so everyone has a chance). Finally, Goozers must have a minimum feedback of 100 to participate, or 5 trades completed as a seller in the last 60 days with all positive feedback.
The rules are designed to prevent people from exploiting the system. The games and movies in the Goozex Exchange were not listed until today. I'm guessing that today they will mention the time the Goozex Exchange starts as well. In addition, the cost of the games and movies is still up in the air. Although based on the last sale I would imagine games will be around 1400-1600 points and movies might be 200-300 points?
Here are my concerns based on the last time the Goozex Exchange took place. Number 1: not having enough of the product; games like Street Fighter 4 on the Xbox 360 sold out quickly, leaving those who showed up late, such as myself, the leftovers. Number 2: the time the sale ran. In March, the sale started at 12pm PST. Ideally, this was a good time for some members of the site who don't work regular work schedules, are in college, or have long lunch breaks. For everyone else, the starting time was terrible and many users missed out on the opportunity to obtain the games they wanted. My third and most important concern is, can the web site handle the traffic load? Community members saw Goozex.com stagger with the addition of DVD trading during the first week of its launch. Too many people with too much stuff going on forced the site to an almost stand still.
Let's see what today brings.

If you have any sort of questions relating to where and how you can make use of adopt an alpaca (www.dayoutwiththekids.co.uk/family-fun/Hensting_Alpaca_Walking_Experience/8114), you can contact us at our internet site.The primary on our record of deep sea creatures is the fangtooth fish. This fish is one of the most evil looking ocean predators. It lives within the deep ocean and catches its prey by luring them in with glowing gentle organs referred to as photophores. In such a dark abyss, fish are interested in the sunshine Here is more info on the full details review our own internet site. put off by the organ and as soon as they are close sufficient the fangtooth fish catches them in his numerous giant teeth. He seems to be like an underwater vampire. Another carnivorous sea animal is the deep-sea lizardfish. These attention-grabbing fish look virtually like a brief snake in water. Their mouths are covered with harpoon-tipped teeth that grasp their prey and don't let go, similar to a fish hook. These teeth are hinged so that they can flattened down when prey goes in and stand up when resisting. They don't even need to actively swallow; the struggling prey simply ratchets itself inside.

Office Space
Wishing my desk at home looked a little more like any of the above photos. Unfortunately my desk is currently full of humungo recording speakers and too many tambourines. Organization is needed.

Well, I have to say that I'm impressed with these office designs. And here I thought that one of those pictures was your real space. If you're having problems with organizing your desk, then why not do them slowly instead? You don't have to do them ASAP right? And if you're finally going to organize it, then I wish you good luck.

Does anyone else think it's super creepy how the internet stalks you these days? I go to a website in search of a kitchen cart. Next thing I know half the ads I see everywhere are for that store. I was recently looking for a new phone from Verizon – I've been seeing Verizon ads for a solid month now. I looked (just once several weeks ago) at Godiva's website trying to find nutrition information and I am STILL getting Godiva ads. I perused the P90X website and now I get a plethora of "tricks to shrink belly fat," "one rule to a flat stomach," and more ads of the like, constantly.
Not only is it super flippin irritating seeing the same flippin ads every single day, but what the hell else are they doing with all this information? You used to not be able to leave your house without somebody being able to know where you are and what you are doing. Now you can't even stay inside your house and retain any privacy. I'm not doing anything super secret over here, but just wonder where the tailored internet marketing tactics will end.

Lamborghini Catches Fire in Delhi
A Lamborghini Gallardo caught fire while passing on a road this morning at 9:00 AM in Delhi. The fire was witnessed under a flyover bridge in Badarpur of Delhi, where fire emerged from the rear-part of the Rs.2.5 crore car. According to Lamborghini, in certain driving conditions, the high pressure steering pipes near the steering assistance hydraulic system pump might leak. Leaking fluid, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. There were several cases of cars belonging to Porsche, Ferrari etc catching fire. Flames emerged from a Porsche recently on Outer Ring Road in Hyderabad. Lamborghini Gallardo was discontinued by the company in 2013 and replaced with Huracan.

I love helping parents think of activities to help their struggling children learn. Break down the complicated process of learning into clear, simple activities we can do at home.
After graduating from Vanderbilt University, a top teaching program, I taught in a public school in rural Nashville and an high performance charter school in the heart of NYC. The joy of seeing a struggling reader rapidly grow several levels to catch up or exceed grade level expectations is hard to beat. Seeing a student grow in writing or math was one of the most fulfilling parts of being a teacher who believed all students could grow.
As a parent of three small, active wonders, I continue learning about how they see the world and how they learn best. As with all children, please remember each child is different and that my suggestions may not be the best fit for every child. These posts merely highlight what I have found to work for me as a teacher and a mommy.

Owl John – Hate Music #SOTD
Who is Owl John?
Owl John is the nom-de-plume of Frightened Rabbit frontman, songwriter and guitarist Scott Hutchison. After ten years with Frightened Rabbit he feels it's time to "indulge John" and a studio album is imminent.
I want to hear more.
While Scott is indulging Owl John out on tour with backing band around the UK at the moment, you can grab a preorder copy of the almost eponymous 'John' now in advance of a 4th August 2014 release date.

Loretta Maine Interview - "DarK hUmOR WoRkS foR BriTs anD EskIMoS"
Loretta Maine won 'most' of our hearts last Christmas as she captivated us with her duet Happy Goddamn Christmas with Matt Roper. Fresh from a plethora of dates across the comedy clubs of Britain, Loretta now brings her new songs, new tales and new pain to the Soho Theatre, London until the 16th of March. Featuring tracks like "These Ain't My Tits" and the world famous "Chicken Shop" what more do you need to know to be enticed into grabbing a ticket. We managed to have a chat with her to find out if she really does know that much about chicken and if she's ready to tackle a surfboard at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival…
Why did you decide to pick up and move over here? Was it hard breaking into the US entertainment industry?
NoOnE wOUld LiSteN To ME OVEr TheRe! I couLdn'T BelieVE iT. I aM aMAzinG! aLso mY TheraPisT saiD iT wouLd bE goOd tO moVe soMEwheRe wiTh tighTer GuN coNTrOL.
I hear you feel much more at home in the UK because we like our dark stuff. Why do you think Brits get off on all this dismay?

What inspires the lyrics to your songs? I have read that Eastenders plots play a very important role.
PaiN, driNk anD MasOOd. I LoVE MasOOd. HoW coULd ZaInAB LEaVe HiM? ShE MusT havE goT a ParT iN a PlaY oR SomEthING.
Last December you released the song Happy Goddamn Christmas with a good friend of ours Matt Roper. It got right up to number 6 on the iTunes UK Comedy Charts. How did you meet Matt and are you as infatuated with him in real life as you appear in the video?
LeT'S gEt OnE thINg StraIGhT, MATt RoPEr Is a CliT TeasE. He waS aLL LikE "If We makE THis VidEo wE caN TotaLLy hoOk uP afTEr" anD theN foR Some REasON He moVEd To IndiA. I seEm tO havE thaT affEcT On MEn. My LasT BoyFriEnd MovEd to HeavEn.
This leads me to my next question. Could I ask you why Matt issued a restraining order against you?
HeY If My preSEncE Is FrightEninG to HiM aT 2aM ouTsiDE HIs WinDOW theN thaT is His proBLEM noT MinE
So you're performing in London, followed up by a trip down under to the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. What can people expect from your show compared to your Fringe show?
A BeTTeR screEn foR ProjEctIONs anD a ShoRteR skiRt.
So you're heading over to Melbourne too. I imagine you'll be pleased to hear that Chardonnay comes from that part of the world.
I lOvE CharDoNNay. The YeLLoWeR thE BetTeR.
Also, have you ever been surfing? Your music certainly has has an edge of surfer sound… for the surfer girls, obviously…
NoPE. I WouLD RaTHEr bE thE GirL iN thE biG haT WhinINg abOUt WhY We havE to Go To ThE BEaCh anYwaY.
And what do you want audiences to walk away with when they leave your shows?

You recently wrote some rather unique health tips to help us live longer for Spoonfed. First question regarding that. What makes Pimms a superior nightcap to a hot chocolate or Horlicks?
It waRmS thE CoCKlEs aND knoCKS yOU RighT Out. And YoU havE to BruSh your TeEtH aFteR thE OthEr tWo.
The other point you were strong about is that chicken is the best source of protein and you have been heard saying that you know the names of all the chicken shops in the UK. The recent horsegate scandal must have shocked you to say the least and what actions have you taken to ensure your chicken cravings are put to rest with 100% chicken?

One final question I'm sure many have wondered for quite some time. Is Pimms to blame for your typing method or is it down to something else?
WHaT TyPINg MEthOd? WhaT yOU chaTTinG aBouT? JEeZ. JouRnaLIStS
You can catch Loretta's hour of amazing sexy woe by getting your tickets here. We'll be chatting to her again soon to find out all about her adventures at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

The Best $10.15............
....sandwich you'll ever eat.
We're in Indianapolis, as I write this, having just spent the day celebrating Peg's youngest sister's 60th Birthday. (Pardon me a moment ... I just realized what I wrote ... Peg's youngest sister ... 60 years old ... she was ten when we got married .... UGH....).
OK. I'm better now.
Anyway, when we left the fam late this afternoon, Peg suggested we might stop for a bite of dinner on the way to the hotel, and mentioned Shapiro's Delicatessen on the South side of Indianapolis. I'd mentioned eating there while we were here this week and we were in the neighborhood, so we stopped in.
You're looking at half the sandwich, the other half hiding behind the pickles. Corned beef on Jewish rye, with their special mustard. And a couple slices of Swiss.
Oh yes ... the coconut cream pie was pretty good too. Real egg-white meringue.
While we're in town ... a trip we decided on about two weeks ago ... yes, it IS nice being retired ... I'm going to visit one of my old mentors, Gene Bertolet. He's also retired, but still acts as part-time graphic artist for the MFMI (Men For Missions International) publications, including their ACTION Magazine.
We'll be going to church tomorrow morning with John, my nephew, at Lakeview Assembly of God. And, come Monday, we'll visit with Dr. Sheri Klouda and her husband Pinky, in Upland.
I noticed on the way to the hotel this evening, that our trip's cumulative gas mileage in the Prius is up to 49.2.
Hmm .... maybe we've saved enough for another $10.15 sandwich.......

August Produce Picks
Getting Thick with Okra
The slender seedpod Abelmoschus esculentus, known in some regions as lady's fingers, is rich in vitamins A, B, C, E and K, as well as calcium, iron and magnesium. Okra, native to Africa, gives jambalaya and gumbo its thickness and makes a tasty treat when fried or pickled. Locally grown okra is harvested throughout the summer and into the fall. Tip: cooking okra at high temperatures or paired with acidic ingredients like tomato, lemon juice or wine, alleviates the gooeyness that gives okra a bad reputation.
Here's a recipe for succotash that is perfect for the Eastern Shore summer, when tomatoes and corn are also in season:
Here are a range of recipes that are perfect for the Eastern Shore summer okra.
Juicy, Juicy Gems
Even if you don't happen to operate a rum distillery, you'll want to scoop up as many blackberries as you can at this time of year. The juicy berries are a midsummer treasure on the Eastern Shore, and make a perfect summer snack: a one cup serving provides half the daily requirement of vitamin C and has only about 60 calories. Muddle blackberries into lemonade or sprinkle on your breakfast cereal or yogurt. Blackberries are divine in cobblers and crisps, or in the continental version of the dessert, clafoutis.

If you are thinking about getting married soon and have not yet made up your mind on where to have the ceremony and the reception, why not consider an exotic overseas destination instead of just heading to the local church.
Between 1 November 2013 – 31 March 2014 and 1 November 2014 – 31 March 2015, Samoa's luxury Seabreeze Resort is offering couples who stay a minimum of six nights, a free wedding ceremony valued at AUD$960.00. Now everyone can afford to get married in paradise.
Wedding ceremonies at Seabreeze Resort begin with the sound of the Conch shell echoing through the bay, while warriors in Siapo (traditional dress) escort the bride and groom to their beachfront or pool side ceremony. Vows are exchanged to the sound of lapping waves and with the sun glistening on the lagoon, then as the sun sets, celebrations begin.
Couples taking advantage of this free wedding ceremony still get their own wedding planner to ensure the day is everything they dreamed it would be.
Made for couples and nestled into a private secluded bay, this intimate adult's only 4.5 star resort oozes romance and is a popular wedding destination.
As well as the personal wedding planner and the local warrior dressed in traditional wear to escort the bride, the free wedding ceremony includes a Minister or Celebrant, all fees, license and administration costs, including registration of marriage, the Seabreeze Choir, a bouquet of tropical flowers for the bride and a tropical floral lei for the groom plus up to 10 decorated chairs for the ceremony on the beach, pool side or for a smaller intimate wedding of two, on the honeymoon villa balcony.
Optional extras include a photographer, wedding cake, hair and makeup, massage, canapés, floral arch, petal aisle and Ukulele player.
Located on Samoa's famous south east coast of Upolu, Seabreeze has 11 air-conditioned villas including the ultimate Honeymoon Point House, all with ocean, lagoon or reef views. The resort boasts the award winning Waterfront Bar & Restaurant serving a la carte breakfast, lunch and dinner and also offers Cbreeza Pizzeria and Paulini's Pool Bar as other dining options.
Seabreeze won Samoa's Leading Hotel at the 2013 World Travel Awards™ and was recently named in the Top 10 Hotels for Romance in the South Pacific by Trip Advisor in its 2013 Travellers' Choice® awards
From a swim in the infinity pool, to enjoying the resorts private beach and lagoon to glass bottom kayaking or snorkeling, there is always something to experience. Seabreeze also offers a range of totally indulgent and nurturing massages and facials. Sandra Tiltman

Menlo Park woman fights off attacker; 19-year-old arrested, charged with attempted rape
MENLO PARK, Calif. (KTVU) - A Peninsula man is behind bars Friday night, charged with attempted rape. But investigators say the would-be victim turned the tables on her attacke and forced him to run off in fear.
Regelio Alexander Artiga is being held in the San Mateo County jail, charged with attempted rape, assault with the intent to commit rape, and witness dissuasion.
"This case in itself is a little scary. We don't see this much anymore," said San Mateo County district attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
Menlo Park Police say Monday afternoon Artiga attacked a 33-year-old woman as she jogged near the intersection Oak Court and Woodland Drive in Menlo Park.
After posing a nonsensical question, police say Artiga grabbed the woman from behind, pulled her into the roadside bushes, and pulled down her pants.
"She knew her life was in danger," said Wagstaffe. "She knew when he started to pull her pants down he was going to sexually assault her."
But investigators say the victim fought back, screaming at Artiga that she was going to kill him for attacking her. He became scared and tried to run away. She went after him, but then stopped and called police.
"It was risky, but I don't second guess it at all for this reason: the man did not have a weapon. If he had a knife or a gun, then I think that would have been a step not to take," said Wagstaffe.
Menlo Park police arrested the 19-year-old East Palo Alto resident a short time later. He's being held on a $150,000 bail bond and will be in court at 9 a.m. October 2 for a felony preliminary hearing.

FEMINISTS NOT HAPPY About Caitlyn Jenner Being Named WOMAN OF THE YEAR
Apparently, men are better at being women these days than women and some feminists are not happy about it.
The New York Post reports:
Germaine Greer, the 76-year-old author of "The Female Eunich," is making waves by lambasting the idea that Caitlyn Jenner may be honored by Glamour Magazine as "Woman of the Year." Jenner isn't a woman, says Greer. He's just attention-starved and seeking to steal the limelight from the women in the Kardashian family.
He hasn't actually had to endure what feminists depict as the true horrors of womanhood, such as being cursed with what Greer delicately characterizes as a "big, hairy, smelly vagina."
When told that such comments are hurtful to the transgender community, Greer doubled down. "Try being an old woman. For goodness sake, people get hurt all the time, I'm not about to walk on eggshells."
Those who have long walked on eggshells trying not to offend Greer's feminist sisters should feel free to laugh.
Feminists vs. trans people. How will the Left decide which team to side with?

You will achieve success if you
Always keep your eye on the destination
Working with an independent facilitator helps everyone to align with clear vision and goals, and to stay on track, moving forward together. This works well for strategic, business and marketing planning and for the implementation and management of these plans.
Understand your customers' problems, and what they value
Learn about the 'problems' your customers want to solve – and offer solutions that fit the customer needs more exactly than any of your competitors can offer. Show this understanding through your staff attitudes, service response, as well as product range and quality.
Encourage you staff to ask questions, to explore customer needs. They can become your marketing specialists. Involve your staff as 'customer knowledge experts' in designing services to 'exceed the need' and delight the customer. This is easy to learn and satisfying to do.
Include formal market research by an independent provider to gather more objective feedback. Good market research doesn't cost the earth and quickly pays for itself.
Use Customer Satisfaction Surveys to monitor how your business measures up to their expectations, and how you can change to win more sales.
Use clean, clear, easy to understand messages
Learn about 'plain English' text for your advertising, website, brochures, online media, letters, emails, signs
Make sure all your staff know what to say to customers to show that your business can solve their problems better than other suppliers.

More Information About Long Term Disability Insurance
The purpose of long term disability (LTD) insurance is to safeguard your finances so that you can continue paying bills and take care of loved ones, despite suffering from a disability or injury.
However, often the insurance company refuses or cancels benefits for those who believe they are eligible. Kotak Law is dedicated to earning compensation for St. Catharines residents whose disability insurance provider unjustly denies them.
Our firm has been represented countless disability insurance claimants throughout Ontario and against all major insurance companies including: Manulife, Sunlife, Desjardins, Great West Life, Blue Cross, AIG, SSQ, RBC, and Industrial Alliance. We have the experience to correct the common mistakes that may delay the approval of your disability claim, and help you properly document your disability. Call us at 1-888-GOKOTAK to schedule a free initial consultation.
Is there a timeline for long term disability claims?
Most LTD plans in St. Catharines have timeframes for when you can apply, related to the onset of injury, and many expect that you first file for short term disability. Thus, it is important to act immediately after suffering from injury or illness. Also, disability claimants should keep in mind the time limitations relating to when they can sue their insurer for benefits. Some claimants spend so much time in their insurance company's internal review process that they exceed these limits and can no longer pursue litigation.
Is it difficult to qualify for long term disability benefits?
In Ontario, it varies and depends a lot on the type of disability. Almost all long term disability claims taken longer to be approved than short term disability claims normally do (short term disability claims can be approved within a week of being made). Often insurers refuse to pay due to application errors. Commonly claims are rejected because your insurer argues that you have not proved that you are disabled, or that the disability is not severe enough to prevent you from working. Disabilities that are more difficult to measure, such as PTSD or chronic pain, are also more difficult with respect to LTD claims. Sufferers of this type of disability may be forced to litigate to earn the compensation that they deserve.
If your disability claim is denied, you have the right to request a reassessment of the application.

St Catharines Soccer Players at risk of disabling Brain Injury from Headers
Medical experts have for some time been aware of the link between contact sports, acquired brain injury and degenerative disorders. In the past, hockey, football and boxing have been the focus of studies and media reports on concussion and degenerative disorders that result from multiple blows to the head.
However, more recently, scientists have been studying the effects of head trauma for soccer players (i.e. footballers) and believe there is a potential link between soccer and neurodegenerative brain disorders, such as chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), dementia and Alzheimer's Disease.
A Feb 15 CBC report titled "Soccer players' brains show damage 'probably related' to frequent heading, neurologists say", referenced a recent British neurological study which included post-mortems on six retired soccer players with dementia. The British study set out to determine whether dementia is more common among footballers than in the general population. The researchers discovered that all six of these players showed signs of Alzheimer's disease and four also showed damage typical of CTE. The authors of the study concluded that "this finding is probably related to their past prolonged exposure to repetitive head impacts from head-to-player collisions and heading the ball thousands of times throughout their careers". However, they acknowledge that more studies are required to determine if there is a cause-and-effect relationship.
CTE is a form of brain degeneration that's generally associated with repeated head trauma. Concussions do not have to be severe to potentially result in CTE; repeated mild concussions are also dangerous. CTE can result in dementia, and the most common symptoms include: cognitive impairments, lack of impulse control, depression, short-term memory problems, emotional instability, irritability and difficulty executing tasks. A person suffering from CTE may also experience difficulty with speech and language, impairments, and vision and focusing problems.
A study closer to home, carried out at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto, found a higher incidence of concussions for female soccer players than males. One of the study's authors noted that heading the ball won't necessarily cause an obvious concussion with symptoms; however, an accumulation of impacts over time can result in permanent injury, including cognitive difficulties, memory problems and other symptoms (in "Concussions in soccer: Neuroscientists raise red flag over heading hazards", CBC News, Jun 15, 2014).
In the United States, the NFL recently reached a settlement for $1 billion in connection with a class-action lawsuit involving thousands of retired players who were diagnosed with brain injuries after having suffered concussions. Similarly, more than 100 former hockey players with post-concussion symptoms have filed a class-action lawsuit against the National Hockey League, alleging that the NHL knew, or should have known, about the connection between repetitive concussions and long-term brain damage, but they failed to protect their players.
The implications of the many studies that reveal the danger of repeated concussion and brain injury is that professional and amateur organizations in St. Catharines, including sports leagues and schools, should be taking precautions to prevent the risk of injury. One of the most basic steps is for coaches and teachers to remove an athlete from play if a concussion is suspected.
In June 2016, Ontario passed 'Rowan's Law', the objective of which is to prevent concussions among youth and children. The law was named after Rowan Stringer, a 17-year-old girl who tragically died after suffering three concussions in high-school rugby games, within a one-week period. Rowan's death was attributed to "second impact syndrome' which results from multiple concussions. Rowan's Law involves 49 recommendations that stemmed from the inquest into Rowan's death, and includes (but is not limited to) directives such as: increasing concussion education and awareness among coaches, athletes, parents and teachers; better tools to allow coaches/trainers to identify concussions; and putting concussion policies in place in Ontario school boards and sports associations.
At one time, concussions were perceived as very minor injuries with temporary effects. We now know that even 'mild' concussions can result in disabling and permanent symptoms that have a devastating effect on the life of a sufferer.
If you or a loved one in the St. Catharines area suffered a brain injury or concussion in an accident caused by a negligent party, call Kotak Personal Injury Law to find out about your legal right to compensation for any losses you sustained as a result of your injury.

Drastic increase of isoprene fluxes in the future climate
Isoprene is the dominant biogenic hydrocarbon emitted into the atmosphere. It plays a key role in the atmospheric composition because of its influence on tropospheric ozone and its contribution to fine particle formation. Isoprene emissions respond strongly to changes in temperature and solar radiation, and are therefore strongly dependent on the warming climate. Here we use the MEGAN-MOHYCAN biogenic emission model to estimate high-resolution isoprene fluxes over Europe in the past 35 years and in different projection scenarios for the end-of-the-century climate.
In this study we used the MEGAN (Model of Emissions of Gases and Aerosols from Nature) emission model coupled with the MOHYCAN (Model of HYdrocarbon emissions by the CANopy) canopy model to calculate the isoprene fluxes emitted by vegetation in the recent past (1979–2014), and in the future (2070–2099) over Europe. As a result of the changing climate, modeled isoprene fluxes increased by 1.1% per year on average in Europe over 1979–2014, with the strongest trends found over eastern Europe and European Russia. For the 1979–2014 period the model used ECMWF meteorology, whereas for the comparison of current with projected emissions, the meteorology was simulated by the ALARO climate model. Depending on the climate scenario, isoprene fluxes were found to increase between 7% and 83% compared to the control run, and even stronger increases were found when considering the potential impact of CO2 fertilization. However, the inhibitory CO2 effect goes a long way towards canceling these increases.
Fig. 1. Relative differences in isoprene emissions between the control (CTRL) run and three climate scenarios considering the effect of (A) climate, (B) climate and fertilization, (C, D) climate and moderate or strong inhibition, (E) climate, fertilization, and strong inhibition, from Bauwens et al. Recent past (1979–2014) and future (2070–2099) isoprene fluxes over Europe simulated with the MEGAN–MOHYCAN model. Biogeosciences, 15, 3673-3690, 2018.
New assessment of the global carbon monoxide source
The hydroxyl radical (OH) is the main detergent in the atmosphere and its abundance controls the concentrations of carbon monoxide (CO), a primary pollutant gas. As a result, the carbon monoxide emissions determined through inverse modeling constrained by satellite data depend crucially upon the OH levels simulated with models. Here we have combined observation-based constraints on OH levels, satellite CO data from the IASI sensor, and the IMAGES atmospheric model to provide improved global estimates of CO emissions.
The sources of CO include direct emissions and photochemical production due to the oxidation of hydrocarbons. The dominant CO sink is its reaction with OH, CO has therefore a strong influence on the oxidative capacity of the atmosphere and on the removal of air pollutants. However, most chemistry transport models fall short of reproducing constraints on OH levels derived from methyl chloroform (MCF) observations. In this study, we prescribe different OH fields compatible with MCF data in the IMAGES global model to infer CO fluxes constrained by IASI CO data. Each OH field leads to a different set of optimized emissions. Differences of 40% in the top‐down global anthropogenic CO emissions are found when varying the OH levels, and even larger differences are found regionally, e.g. in China and the United States. Comparisons with independent surface and aircraft observations indicate that the inversion adopting the lowest average OH level in the Northern Hemisphere (18% lower than the best estimate based on MCF measurements) provides the best overall agreement with all tested observation datasets.

Vapour pressure of Pure Liquid Organic Compounds
Estimation by EVAPORATION
The vapour pressure of an organic compound is one of the main factors controlling its equilibrium partitioning between the gas and condensed (aerosol) phases.
Here we present the method EVAPORATION of Compernolle et al. (1), which calculates the vapour pressure of an organic molecule from molecular structure. Functional groups within its scope are: aldehyde, ketone, ether, ester, alcohol, nitrate, acid, peroxide, hydroperoxide, peracid and peroxy acyl nitrate. Aromatics are not treated.
Please specify the molecular structure by a SMILES string, and the temperature (in Kelvin). With e.g. the online program Marvin one can generate a SMILES from a molecular drawing.
The empirical factor for functionalized diacids was introduced to accommodate data like those of Booth et al., (Atmos. Chem. Phys. 2010) . However, more recent data of Huisman et al., (Atmos. Chem. Phys. 2013) are in clear disagreement with such a factor. Therefore, the user can choose to turn it off.

Degradation mechanisms
This scheme shows the general lines in the oxidation of a VOC. Extremely reactive alkyl radicals reacts almost instantly with O2 to produce peroxy radicals. Many reactions are possible for these peroxy radicals, yielding various stable compounds (hydroperoxides, nitrates, etc.) and/or very reactive alkoxy radicals. The product distribution therefore depends on the abundance of the different sorts of radicals (NO, HO2, other RO2 radicals) which can react with the RO2. The fate of alkoxy radicals is often difficult to predict from our current knowledge, due to the scarcity of direct measurements and the complexity of theoretical methods. Note that the "stable "compounds themselves (indicated by ellipses on this Figure) are oxidized by OH or by photolysis. It is easy to imagine the enormous number of different compounds that will be generated in the oxidation of complex hydrocarbons (e.g. monoterpenes).

Good morning.
We're trying something new for our readers in Asia and Australia: a morning briefing to jump-start your day.
What do you like? What do you want to see here? Email us with your feedback at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Here's what you need to know:
• The polls have closed in much of the United States.
Donald J. Trump has won the crucial battleground states of Florida and Ohio along with more than 20 other states, leaving Hillary Clinton only a narrow path to the presidency. Check here for the latest numbers.
Our reporters are providing real-time election analysis, and we're offering unlimited access to The Times through Thursday morning.
• Markets in Asia were trading lower — Japan's stocks plunged — and the prospect of a Wall Street sell-off rose after Mr. Trump's unexpectedly strong showing.
For the first time in modern memory, both candidates are watching the results in Midtown Manhattan — though across town from one another.
• The Philippines' highest court ruled that Ferdinand E. Marcos, the former dictator ousted by his people after a brutal 20-year rule, can be reburied in a heroes cemetery, as planned by President Rodrigo Duterte.
The Marcos family welcomed the ruling and so did supporters, above, but many Filipinos expressed hurt and anger. A senator said the court had "miserably failed the test of history and broken our hearts."
• Hundreds of lawyers marched through Hong Kong's central business district in a silent show of opposition to China's assertion of power over the city's judiciary.
Some noted that local courts, which operate on common law, could still soften or even stymie the implementation of Beijing's decision to block two pro-independence politicians from taking office.
• South Korea's president, Park Geun-hye, is allowing her rivals in Parliament to pick a new prime minister in place of her own nominee, her latest attempt to defuse an influence-peddling scandal.
Prosecutors also raided the offices of Samsung, South Korea's largest conglomerate, to investigate possible links to the scandal. Corruption has become a pressing issue for the country amid slowing economic growth.
• Ferocious battles have turned parts of the Syrian city of Aleppo into a moonscape of shattered buildings.
Our reporter made a recent bus tour of the western, government-held part of the city, documenting scenes of stark destruction as well as the almost surreal contrast of seemingly normal life.
• India's highest-denomination notes are now worthless. Prime Minister Narendra Modi devalued the 500- and 1000-rupee bills because they are frequently counterfeited or used for graft.
• Iran signed its first major deal with a Western oil company since international sanctions were removed in the nuclear agreement. The preliminary $4.8 billion deal with Total calls for the production of 1.8 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day.
• American environmental groups protesting the Dakota Access pipeline near the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation are targeting a new group: banks that have helped finance the project.
• Adjoining apartments in Hong Kong sold for an Asian record of more than $13,500 per square foot.
• Here's a snapshot of global markets, which have been shaken by the American election.
In the News
• A British banker was found guilty of murdering two Indonesian women at his luxury Hong Kong apartment, a case that exposed the underbelly of the city's financial sector. [The New York Times]
• Singapore's prime minister said only Malay candidates would be allowed to run in next year's presidential race, to ensure there would be a president from the minority group for the first time in more than 46 years. [The Straits Times]
• Hungary's Parliament rejected a proposal to bar refugees being relocated from the rest of Europe. [The New York Times]
• Iraqi troops advancing on Mosul discovered a mass grave containing about 100 bodies, many of them decapitated. [The Associated Press]
• A manhunt is on for two inmates who made an Alcatraz-like escape from a London prison. [The New York Times]
• Take a glimpse of Yarchen Gar, China, a wonder of the Tibetan highlands populated by Buddhist nuns. [The New York Times]
• Two hundred mahouts and 11 elephants, powdered an auspicious white, paid respects to King Bhumibol, who died last month, at the Grand Palace in Bangkok. [Bangkok Post]
• Prince Harry has had enough. The 32-year-old grandson of Queen Elizabeth II blasted British news coverage and social media trolls for the "outright sexism and racism" unleashed on his biracial American girlfriend, Meghan Markle, above.
• Russia's Kontinental Hockey League is trying to make ice hockey popular in China, where the sport's traditional rowdiness seems not to have translated.
• Iran, after years of isolation, global sanctions and bad press, is blossoming as a tourist destination for travelers from Europe, and even the United States, looking to explore the unknown.
• Toblerone, the Swiss chocolate bar, has altered the Matterhorn-inspired shape of two of its products. The redesign, which shrinks weight to avoid raising the price, has outraged some fans.
Back Story
"It is one of the most extraordinary works of art to come to the market in the last 10 to 15 years."
That comment by Sotheby's chairman for Chinese art was reserved for an 18th-century musket made for the Qianlong emperor, who presided over what became China's last imperial dynasty.
The gun is set to be auctioned today in London at an estimated price of roughly $1.2 million to $1.8 million.
"We've never had an imperial firearm," the Sotheby's executive, Nicolas Chow, said.
Handcrafted out of wood, with components made of gold, silver and copper, the gun is over five and a half feet long. An inscription reads, "Supreme Number One."
Sales of Chinese art accounted for nearly a third of the global art auction market last year, according to a recent analysis.
Mr. Chow said that many treasures were taken from the palace after the dynasty ended. Their return is viewed as a matter of national pride.
The emperor's fondness for the weapon can be seen in a poem attributed to him, but a jade seal he used during his abdication might be the emperor's most valuable possession.
Last month, an anonymous buyer paid nearly $12 million for the item.
Patrick Boehler contributed reporting.
Photographs may appear out of order for some readers. Viewing this version of the briefing should help.
