Whether it's through her poignant speeches or candid podcast conversations, former First Lady Michelle Obama has used storytelling as a vessel to foster a sense of interconnectedness and help individuals recognize their shared humanity. The Chicago native is expanding her imprint in the literary world with the release of a new memoir.
The book—titled The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times—serves as a reflective piece of literature that chronicles moments along Obama's journey that helped her unlock a deeper sense of self-awareness, self-efficacy, and self-worth. She hopes her candor and the lessons derived from her personal experiences will serve as inspiration for those navigating uncertain chapters in their lives.
"I've learned it's okay to recognize that self-worth comes wrapped in vulnerability and that what we share as humans on this earth is the impulse to strive for better, always and no matter what," she wrote in the book's introduction. "We become bolder in brightness. If you know your light, you know yourself. You know your own story in an honest way. In my experience, this type of self-knowledge builds confidence, which in turn breeds calmness and an ability to maintain perspective, which leads, finally, to being able to connect meaningfully with others—and this to me is the bedrock of all things. One light feeds another. One strong family lends strength to more. One engaged community can ignite those around it. This is the power of the light we carry."
The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times, which is being released by Penguin Random House, is slated to hit bookshelves on November 15.
News about Obama's upcoming memoir comes on the heels of a multi-project deal that she and former President Barack Obama inked with Audible. Under the first-look pact—which was made through their production imprint Higher Ground—the Obamas will develop content centered on amplifying diverse voices.

Political War Stories
Former provincial politician Greg Sorbara gives City Life early access to his memoir The Battlefield of Ontario Politics and reflects on his time on the frontlines
The darkest hour of Greg Sorbara's political career came swiftly and without warning. It was Oct. 11, 2005. Sorbara, then Ontario's minister of finance, had just wrapped up a meeting with Paul Beeston and Dr. Paul Garfinkel, respectively the chairman of the board and the president and CEO of the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, who were lobbying for funding for their organization. He had just left his office in the Frost Building and was heading toward the legislature in Queen's Park when Globe and Mail reporter Karen Howlett approached him. She didn't waste time. The RCMP, she said, had raided the offices of the Sorbara Group, his family's development business, as part of an investigation into Royal Group Technologies, a public company of which Sorbara was once a member of the board.
"Did you know your name is mentioned in the search warrant?" Howlett asked.
He didn't.
"I resigned my seat on the board of Royal Group Technologies two years ago when I became minister of finance," he said, "so there's no way this could involve me."
But it did.
Sorbara had been pulled into an RCMP criminal investigation, one that could potentially snuff out his political life and forever mar his reputation as a public figure. That evening, he met with Peter Wilkinson, his chief of staff, to discuss options. There was only one course of action: Sorbara would have to resign.
"It was certainly a painful decision," Sorbara says, reminiscing about the worst day of his life in Ontario politics. "In the morning I am the second most powerful politician in the province, and by the evening I'm out."
It's a cool, overcast day in August as Sorbara, 68, reflects on his days in the Ontario legislature from his Richmond Hill home. The "Royal Issue," as he calls it, is the jumping off point of his new book The Battlefield of Ontario Politics, a memoir that chronicles Sorbara's and his family's life and gives a behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of the world of politics in the province. I'm meeting with the now-retired MPP and former minister of finance to discuss this new book, which isn't due out for another two months, but we're fortunate enough to get our hands on a revised manuscript before it hits the press.
Sorbara explains he's worked on the Battlefield project for the better part of the past 12 months, essentially since he officially retired and left his position as chair of the Liberal election campaign a year after he stepped down as MPP of Vaughan.
"I talked to a few friends and thought, 'You know what? We don't have enough in print on Ontario's political history,'" Sorbara says of his motivation for the book. "Having been there for almost 30 years I thought maybe it's up to me to add something to the analysis of Ontario politics."
He begins Battlefield with the Royal issue because it was such a pivotal point of his life. It was a highly publicized white-collar criminal investigation over conflict of interest regarding Royal's purchase of an industrial building. Sorbara left his position on Royal's board before being named the minister of finance in 2003, so he knew he was innocent, that the RCMP was just gunning for a high-profile target. But accusations can be just as damaging as verdicts and it was a struggle to keep his head above water.
"For the first month I thought this would be the defining issue," he says. "Every story that might ever be written about me would start with, 'Greg Sorbara, who had to step down as finance minister because of an RCMP criminal investigation.' I thought that would be the frame within which all stories were told."
For eight months Sorbara lived with that burden weighing on his mind, but he would persevere. In the spring of 2006, he would find redemption when his name was finally cleared. The release of anxiety when he was given the good news was like a ball and chain being unshackled from his neck. "I've never felt anything like that," he says, "and truth be told I could not stop crying for a half an hour."
Sorbara is unquestioningly a captivating speaker, something he no doubt honed over his 25 years in the legislature. He's personable and charismatic, constantly shifting the tempo and rhythm of his voice, talking with his hands and moving his body to the flow of words. It all adds an element of drama and theatrics, like he's right back up on the grandstand, speaking to scores of onlookers.
It's no surprise that Sorbara was so successful in the public light. Love him or hate him, as so many right-leaning voters did, there's no denying the achievement of his career. When he tossed his hat into the political ring in 1985, he was part of the Liberal election campaign that dethroned the Progressive Conservatives for the first time in 42 years. Once elected, he became the first Italian-Canadian to be appointed to the Ontario cabinet and was given two portfolios in his rookie year as both the minister of colleges and universities and the minister of skills development. Before he served as the finance minister of Ontario — which amounts to being a four-star general in the political world — he was the campaign chair for the Dalton McGuinty-led Liberals during their string of election victories in 2003, 2007 and 2011 — a feat the Grits hadn't accomplished in over 100 years.
Steve Paikin, Canadian journalist, anchor of TVO's The Agenda and personal friend of Sorbara, believes that Sorbara was an indispensable player during McGuinty's historic run as premier of Ontario. "It's probably not going too far to say he was the chief architect of those three consecutive victories," he says.
Paikin still remembers meeting Sorbara back in 1985 after he won the seat for the Vaughan riding. It was obvious that Sorbara was raw and inexperienced, but the recently elected MPP had a "new energy" and dynamic quality to him — an attitude emblematic of the new wave of Liberals in the '80s. "The fact of the matter is he's a terrific speaker, he loves people, he cares about issues and he is the kind of guy who is really easy to connect with," Paikin adds.
Dalton McGuinty shares this sentiment. "I liked Greg from the moment I met him," says the 24th premier of Ontario. "I always found his energy, his creativity and his youthful idealism remarkable."
In the late '80s, Ontarians began falling out of love with the Liberals. That displeasure amounted to the Liberals being "thrashed," as McGuinty puts it, in the 1990 general election, as the party lost 59 seats. McGuinty and Sorbara were two of the few survivors of the left, and negativity permeated throughout the camp. Sorbara, however, saw the silver lining. "Greg's a never give-up, never give-in kind of guy," McGuinty explains. This situation presented plenty of exciting opportunities, "and he brought this irrepressible optimism into the room and wherever he went."
Thirteen years later, when the Liberals would regain power, McGuinty feels that as minister of finance, Sorbara wielded a responsible approach to his fiscal policies. As party president and chair of the Liberals general election campaign in 2003, Sorbara helped Liberals be "true Liberals," meaning he brought "a balanced, thoughtful, progressive plan to Ontario politics" that benefitted infrastructure, schools, health care and the disadvantaged, says McGuinty. For McGuinty, Sorbara was a colleague, a mentor and a friend.
Sorbara's energy was undoubtedly key to why so many gravitated toward him during his career. He's charismatic and friendly, with a warm, fatherly quality about him. Even if you're a diehard conservative or NDP advocate, Sorbara has an effortless affability that is hard not to like. He speaks openly about his life, making it feel like you've known each other your whole lives.
In Battlefield he's equally as open, writing candidly about his family history. When his father, Sam, moved from Calabria to Canada in 1925, for example, he lived in real poverty in Guelph, Ont. Sam's father was an alcoholic and his mother passed only a few years after he arrived. Being the eldest child, Sam was thrust into the role of surrogate parent. During the Great Depression, Sam would be forced to do whatever he had to to survive, which included bootlegging alcohol. Sam would spend three years in prison for passing counterfeit money — a charge he was officially pardoned for 30 years later.
Sorbara's personal upbringing was a complete contrast to his father's. He grew up in Toronto with a "silver spoon lodged firmly in my mouth," he writes, never having to worry where his next meal came from. He credits that life to his father's success with the Sorbara Group. In his teens, Sorbara considered joining the priesthood, but celibacy didn't quite appeal to him. He spent four unsuccessful years at the University of Toronto, where he "quickly learned to skip classes" and "avoid exams." Counsellors suggested that perhaps business wasn't right for him; maybe social work was more up his alley. In '67 he joined the Company of Young Canadians as a volunteer and, along with a band of other "young radicals bent on changing the world," he was assigned to work with dropouts in Vancouver, B.C. It was during these rebellious days that he would meet his future wife, Kate. It was love at first sight. "I just remember thinking, 'That's the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with,'" he says. "It was a startling realization."
Of course, a book titled The Battlefield of Ontario Politics certainly wouldn't be complete without action from the frontlines, and Sorbara dedicates plenty of room to outlining the struggles and strategies of election campaigns and overcoming political obstacles without shying away from the times when promises had to be broken, including the introduction of the HST and Ontario Health Premium, two tax reforms that drew the ire of the opposition and the public alike.
"It was a rough period," Sorbara says of implementing the OHP, which came only nine months after promising not to raise taxes in the 2003 election. It was the toughest decision he made during his time as the minister of finance, but with the $5.6-billion deficit left by the Tories, the Liberals needed more funds to follow through with their commitments and balance the budget. "We knew we had to do it if we were going to have enough revenue to deliver on the promises that we had made in health care and education."
Perhaps one of the most interesting moments of the book is Sorbara's breakdown of the Oakville and Mississauga gas plant cancellations of 2011, a $1-billion scandal that spurred McGuinty's resignation and brought on an attack from the opposition that included a contempt motion at energy minister Chris Bentley, allegations that political staffers had deleted crucial emails regarding the plant cancellations and a criminal investigation by the Ontario Provincial Police.
Sorbara defends the Liberals and McGuinty's decision to close both plants, arguing that the opposition supported cancelling both gas plants. When it was announced that the Oakville plant was to be cancelled in October 2010, a year before the 2011 election, "there was no human cry from the opposition," he says. "They supported it. They were onside with the decision. It was a non-story." Tim Hudak, the PC's leader, even vowed to close the plants if elected.
"Politics can be a very vicious business," Sorbara says. "Because the government was in a minority situation, the opposition parties decided to exploit the gas plant closures as effectively as they could. I give them credit: they did a very good job of developing a mythology and then putting that mythology before the public. And the public ate it up like crazy."
But, he adds, the general election is always the "cleansing element" for all political scandals. "And the general election that gave Kathleen [Wynne] a majority cleansed all of that negativity that the opposition parties were trying to throw at us."
But not everything in politics is all war and metaphorical bloodshed. There are those times when the long days, sleepless nights and hard-fought battles result in something worth being proud of. For Sorbara, that's the 2007 budget. That budget, he explains, was geared toward the most vulnerable populations in Ontario. It included increased WSIB premiums and resources to legal aid, but the centrepiece was the Ontario Child Benefit. Over five years, the OCB gave more than $2 billion of financial support to low-income families to provide for their children. "The whole budget was directed at helping those who really need government to help them," says Sorbara, "and I was very proud of that. As a Liberal, those things are important."
For the past hour we've gone through the highs and lows of his political career and chatted briefly about his future: about being named chancellor of York University, his ongoing work to raise money for the Vaughan hospital and about becoming a hotelier (they recently purchased and are restoring the Royal Hotel in Picton, Ont.).
But looking back, I ask, what is the most valuable lesson you've learned?
"The best lesson?" he says, pausing to let the thought percolate. "I think the best lesson is that it's important to persevere, to keep on toiling at the mission that you're on."
He uses the example of the subway extension to York University. He first proposed it in 1986. It will open in 2016, 30 years later.
"You can't allow yourself to be overcome by adversary or missteps or setbacks."
And Sorbara should know: it hasn't steered him wrong yet.
The Battlefield of Ontario Politics will be available this November

Do I need IFTA
You qualify for an IFTA license if you operate your qualified commercial motor vehicle in any U.S. state or Canadian province that is a member of the International Fuel Tax Agreement. To qualify your commercial vehicle, your commercial vehicle will have to meet the following weight/axle requirements:
A vehicle used or designed to transport property
is a qualified motor vehicle if it:
- Has three or more axles; or
- Has two axles and a gross vehicle or registered gross vehicle weight
of more than 26,000 pounds; or
- Is used in a combination that has a combined or registered gross vehicle weight of more than 26,000 pounds. If you are a HotShot operator, it is extremely important to understand this qualification. The critical word here is registered. If your GVWR is over 26,000 pounds, many hotshot operators elect to register at just the 26,000 pounds so they don't have to worry about paying fuel taxes which is generally OK as long as they don't cross a scale one pound over this magic number. There are several things to keep in mind. First, fuel taxes are more of a paperwork problem than a cost problem. All you have to do is purchase an amount of fuel in each state to offset the fuel consumed in that state to offset any potential fuel tax liability. Second, if your equipment can haul 30,000 pounds and you are registered at 26,000 pounds you are limiting your ability to haul this extra weight which can effect your earnings.
- Carriers traveling in non-IFTA jurisdictions must continue to comply with the fuel tax reporting requirements of those jurisdictions.
How Much Does IFTA Cost?
The state's registration fee for your apportioned plate will vary depending on your base state, gross vehicle weight, and states you wish to register. Typically the state fees for an 80,000 pound vehicle running all 48 lower states is between $1500 and $2000, but this could vary depending on you base state.
The initial IFTA decal fee in covered in every package. For IFTA, you will need to keep track of the mileage traveled in each state and the fuel purchased in each state. You will receive an IFTA quarterly report from your state each quarter to determine if you owe fuel taxes or if you get a fuel tax refund.
If you purchase most of your fuel in a state that has low fuel taxes and run most of your miles in states that have higher fuel taxes, you will owe taxes to those states with the higher fuel tax rates. If you purchase most of your fuel in a state with a high fuel tax rate and run most of your miles in states that have a lower fuel tax rate, those state will owe you a refund.

- The total miles, taxable and nontaxable, traveled by the IFTA licensee's qualified motor vehicle(s) in all jurisdictions/states, regardless if they participate in IFTA, which includes all trip permit miles;
- The total gallons or liters of fuel that is consumed by a qualifying motor vehicle, including taxable and nontaxable, in all jurisdictions/state whether they participate in IFTA or not;
- The total miles and total taxable miles traveled in each member jurisdiction;
- The total taxable gallons consumed in each member jurisdiction;
- The tax-paid gallons/liters that are purchased in each member jurisdiction; and
- The current tax rates for each member jurisdiction.
Should I register for IFTA in California?
You should register with California as your base jurisdiction if all of the following apply:
- Your qualified motor vehicles are based in California for vehicle registration with the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV);
- You perform operations from an established physical place of business in California (a post office box, mail drop address, or agent address boxes not qualify);
- Your fleet's qualified motor vehicles travel on California highways; and

The cornerstone of pneumonia management remains the early administration of appropriate antimicrobial therapy. Adjunctive medical therapies (eg, corticosteroids and activated protein C) have also been considered for complementing the antimicrobial treatment of pneumonia; however, these therapies did not yield satisfactory or encouraging results1. Furthermore, another confounding issue, the role of chest physiotherapy in therapeutic procedures targeting pneumonia, has not been evaluated extensively.
Limited information from studies with limitations
This task was laudably undertaken by Yang and colleagues in the first systematic review and meta-analysis on this issue. They performed an extensive search in several databases (including Medline, Embase and Central) for trials comparing various types of physiotherapy to no physiotherapy for the management of pneumonia in adults. Both intubated and non-intubated patients were included. Mortality and "cure" rate were chosen as primary outcome measures; secondary measures included, among others, duration of hospital stay, fever, leukocytosis and …

This is a pretty little walk you can take whilst visiting the rock pools at the junction of Boulder Creek and Woondum Creek. It's only 500m long and is a great little nature walk for the family. Be aware that even though it is graded 'easy', the creek has to be crossed and care should be taken with little ones that they don't slip on the rocks.
Take the Old Noosa Road south of Gympie (next to Bunnings) out about 10km and turn left into Hill Road, signposted to Rock Pools Car Park. This is also the start of the Mt Boulder trails.
Follow the sign posted walking trail.

The iPhone SE finally arrived on my doorstep this morning, and I couldn't wait to get Apple's new 4-inch iPhone out of the box.
Get our first impressions of the tiny dynamo in Cult of Mac's iPhone SE unboxing video below.
Apple certainly didn't think "outside the box" for the iPhone SE's design — it's lifted straight from its predecessors, the iPhone 5 and 5s. But Cupertino's crafty engineers managed to squeeze a lot of powerful technology into a small body, and they've delivered the most-affordable iPhone ever in the process.
Have a look!
iPhone SE unboxing video
Will the bargain-basement $399 price tag and the throwback 4-inch form factor be enough to ensure that the iPhone SE is a hit? Despite a promising start in China, it remains to be seen if the world will go gaga for a smaller iPhone.
To find out exactly what we think of the iPhone SE and the new 9.7-inch iPad Pro (that unboxing video is coming soon!), make sure to subscribe to Cult of Mac's YouTube channel to see all our reviews, how-tos and much more.

Annual Report 2017-2018 > Cutting edge research
Our 5-year Turnaway Study is the most authoritative source on the impact of abortion on women and their families. This year we published results showing:
- Being denied a wanted abortion resulted in 4x higher odds that a woman's household income was below the federal poverty level.
- Having an abortion did not lead to mental health problems, increased alcohol, tobacco or drug use, or to suicidal thoughts.
Other research includes:
- Among 50,000 abortions, we found no difference in abortion-related complications between abortions provided in ambulatory surgical centers and office-based settings.
- The first study to comprehensively explore birth support in Kenya showed that 65% of women would want a companion with them during labor for a future baby.
- 81% of women wanted to know ahead of time that Catholic hospitals restrict access to certain reproductive health care.
- Black women who lived in the least privileged zip codes of California had higher than a 25% chance of having a preterm birth compared with those who lived in the most privileged zip codes.
- Four questions comprise the first tool to assess the quality of contraceptive counseling from a patient's perspective.

PWInsider reports that Bully Ray came very close to returning to Impact Wrestling after Drew Galloway turned down his new deal with the promotion.
Impact reportedly offered Ray a big-money deal to return with a top spot, however the deal ending up falling through for some unknown reason. When it was clear that Ray wasn't returning, officials reached out to Alberto El Patron Wednesday night and a deal was reached between the two. From there, Patron would go on to win the Impact Championship at Thursday's tapings.

The undisputed success of Apple and Google in the portable device market has apparently prompted Microsoft to plan "major organizational changes" in the division responsible for Windows Phone, Zune HD and the Xbox 360.
"The first signs of major changes at Microsoft came last week, when ZDNet reported that J Allard, chief experience officer and CTO of the Entertainment and Devices Division, was leaving the company," wrote Katie Marsal of AppleInsider.
"Allard's alleged dissatisfaction is believed to stem from Microsoft's canning of the dual-screen Courier tablet – a secret project that he was head of."
Signs of an imminent shake-up in Redmond were also confirmed by Nick Wingfield of the Wall Street Journal, who noted that Microsoft's "woes" in mobile phones were "particularly troubling" for the company.
"Although it was an early player in the market for the sophisticated wireless phones known as smartphones, Microsoft has stumbled badly in recent years with its Windows Mobile operating system for handsets," explained Wingfield.
"The company's software has lagged behind cutting-edge technologies found in Apple's iPhone and Google's Android operating system, including touch screens that respond to finger gestures and online 'app stores' for distributing software from independent developers."
Indeed, during the first quarter of 2010, new (worldwide) shipments of MS-based handsets decreased to 6.8% from 10.2%, while Google's Android operating system rose to 9.6% from 1.6% and Apple's iPhone jumped to 15.4% from 10.5%.
Update: Confirmed – Microsoft's Robbie Bach is retiring as president of the company's entertainment and devices division. Don Mattrick, the current head of Microsoft division's games business, along with Andy Lees, head of the division's mobile-phone business, will report directly to MS CEO Steve Ballmer beginning July 1.

Clostridium perfringens ε-toxin, which is responsible for enterotoxaemia in ungulates, forms a heptamer in rat synaptosomal and Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell membranes, leading to membrane permealization. Thus, the toxin may target the detergent-resistant membrane domains (DRMs) of these membranes, in analogy to aerolysin, a heptameric pore-forming toxin that associates with DRMs. To test this idea, we examined the distribution of radiolabeled E-toxin in DRM and detergent-soluble membrane fractions of MDCK cells and rat synaptosomal membranes. When MDCK cells and synaptosomal membranes were incubated with the toxin and then fractionated by cold Triton X-100 extraction and flotation on sucrose gradients, the heptameric toxin was detected almost exclusively in DRMs. The results of a toxin overlay assay revealed that the toxin preferentially bound to and heptamerized in the isolated DRMs. Furthermore, cholesterol depletion by methyl-β-cyclodextrin abrogated their association and lowered the cytotoxicity of the toxin toward MDCK cells. When ε-protoxin, an inactive precursor able to bind to but unable to heptamerize in the membrane, was incubated with MDCK cell membranes, it was detected mainly in their DRMs. These results suggest that the toxin is concentrated and induced to heptamerize on binding to a putative receptor located preferentially in DRMs, with all steps from initial binding through pore formation completed within the same DRMs.

text: Anonym / Monday, November 2, 2015 / Categories: Success Stories Taking gas-to-liquid technology to the next level In the 1920s, two German scientists—Franz Fischer and Hans Tropsch—developed revolutionary chemical reactions that could transform gas into liquid. These reactions proved particularly valuable to natural gas-based fuel processing. Since the Fischer-Tropsch days, engineers around the world have been working on ways to tweak these gas-to-liquid (GTL) reactions to produce more products, more efficiently and with less environmental impact. An international research team headquartered at Texas A&M University at Qatar (TAMUQ) is making remarkable progress along these lines. "Qatar is the most attractive place to a scientist wanting to make a difference," said Dr. Nimir Elbashir, assistant professor at TAMUQ and a researcher with more than 15 years of experience at the leading edge of R&D related to fuel processing and petrochemicals. "For researchers in this field, QNRF has opened the door to build international network collaborations and at the same time has provided facilities to make a difference with industrial collaborators." Dr. Elbashir's team—involving researchers from Qatar University, Texas A&M University, College Station, University of Cambridge (CU) and Auburn University—has targeted three key GTL research areas. The first involves a tight focus on the exact molecular actions at play during Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis (FTS) reactions and how different environmental factors impact the process. This information is then applied to the second area of research, test model systems, wherein models are built and tested for their ability to produce different liquid products under different conditions. The third focus emphasizes fuel products and formulating them to be as effective as traditional crude oil relatives with a reduced environmental impact. Funded by Qatar Science and Technology Park (QSTP), it entails a unique collaboration between academia—TAMUQ, University of Sheffield, UK, and DLR, a German Aerospace Institute—and industry leaders Shell and Rolls Royce. Referring to the US$950 million Sasol-Qatar Petroleum GTL plant in Qatar and Shell's largest GTL plant in the world—known as The Pearl GTL in Qatar—Dr. Elbashir said that Qatar was an obvious choice for his research base. Dr. Elbashir's team is working to isolate and combine the strongest aspects of the technologies used at Sasol and Shell into one technology. To be sure his team is on the right track, he assembled an advisory board on both technologies, with members from Shell, Sasol, Exxon Mobil and Qatar Gas. "This project involves a unique network and is not just about me," Dr. Elbashir said. "I can design a reactor but someone else has to optimize this design, and someone else has to develop a control setup for this design while another person has to understand how such thermodynamic behavior has to happen. So you can see, it requires experts in different areas and these people are at the top of their field. "At the same time, to make the research applied, we rely on the industry experts to tell us whether we are going in the right direction and if what we're doing is relevant to the design of future technology." One important potential result of this research is the impact it will make on smaller fuel companies and the market at large. "Right now, only the major corporations around the world can invest in the gas to liquid technologies because it's quite expensive," he said. "Companies like Shell are the only ones who can afford to invest US$20 billion in this technology. This greatly limits the participation of the small to middle sized companies. Our objective is to advance the technology and provide a unit that can be manipulated to produce specific products and that is useful for mid-sized companies." On this project alone, Dr. Elbashir's team has published eight peer-reviewed articles and eight conference papers. They've also presented research findings at over two dozen international engineering conferences. But the best is yet to come, he said. Through a recent NPRP award—running through 2014—Dr. Elbashir, in partnership with CU, will be conducting studies to visualize the molecular processes of GTL using MRI and NMR technologies. "We'll be moving one step ahead of any research ever done in this field," Dr. Elbashir said. "We're planning to investigate the in situ behavior of the reaction in a way that nobody has ever done before. We've been making a lot of assumptions about the fundamentals of GTL, but still we have not visualized any of it. This is all happening at a micro-scale and it's happening very fast. "I'm confident in the team we have built and if we are successful, we may answer questions that span beyond emissions, and we may help refine the assumptions made in hundreds of papers written in the past—nobody has ever really seen the GTL process at the molecular level, and we may soon see exactly how it happens!" Innovative projects like these would be difficult, if not impossible, to move forward without QNRF, Dr. Elbashir said. "For someone like me, in applied research, this is an amazing opportunity."

Settling Claims Under Workers' Compensation Laws
The workers' compensation system provides a method for compensating victims who suffer injuries while on the job. Each state is required to establish a workers' compensation system and has broad discretion in deciding the specific rules and procedures that it will use. Although each state's workers' compensation system is conducted similar to the judicial system, each system operates independently from one another. In fact, the workers' compensation system requires victims who receive benefits to give up their right to sue their employer for their injuries. Although the judiciary and the workers' compensation systems are independent, there are some instances in which a party to a workers' compensation case can appeal a decision to a judicial court. To do so, however, the party must first exhaust any appellate remedies available to him or her through the workers' compensation system.
After filing a workers' compensation claim, the injured worker will typically undergo a medical examination to determine the extent of his or her injuries. Each state uses a system of classifications to determine the type of benefits that the individual will receive and for how long he or she will receive them. The factors that the doctor will assess include whether the injury is partial, total, temporary, or permanent.
Workers' compensation insurance companies have the option to dispute a doctor's determination of the nature and extent of the injury. Naturally, a total and permanent disability will result in a larger benefits award than a temporary and partial injury. After an employee has received a benefits award, the insurance company is typically required to pay compensation for the worker's medical care and treatment in addition to the disability payments. Some insurance companies may wish to negotiate for a lump sum settlement in lieu of weekly payments as required by many state's workers' compensation laws. Workers also have the option of negotiating a structured settlement in which the insurance company will provide a series of lump sum payments over predetermined periods of time.
Advantages and Disadvantages of a Workers' Compensation Settlement
There are a number of advantages to negotiating and accepting a workers' compensation settlement. For example, a workers' compensation insurance company may wish to take the matter to trial. At trial, the workers' compensation judge could award the worker a weekly benefit installment that is less than what the insurance company offered through the settlement agreement. A settlement agreement guarantees a certain amount of benefits without the risks of going to trial. Accepting a settlement also saves the worker a substantial amount of time and resources. Trial is a lengthy and stressful process that can take its toll on workers who are already suffering severe injuries.
Of course, there are many downsides and risks to accepting a settlement. For example, a medical condition may result in complications necessitating further treatment or surgery after the settlement. Since the employee entered into the settlement agreement, however, the employee is unable to seek additional benefits from the insurance company. Some settlements include a provision that allows the worker to preserve his or her right to future medical treatment even after the settlement agreement has been executed.
When determining the appropriate amount of a settlement, it is crucial to include any medical expenses that have been incurred and the amount of any projected medical needs. Many disabilities like back injuries and amputations require ongoing medical treatment like physical therapy. Additionally, the injured worker should anticipate the medical expenses he or she will incur in the event that his or her medical condition worsens unexpectedly.

These days cyber protestations stampede endlessly and mercurially across millions of computer screens; they erupt into a jumble of memes, tweets, and combustible screed. They often deliver shock and then swiftly vanish, only to be replaced by more of the same.
The impersonal nature of much of social media can easily result in reductionist divisiveness, which goes a long way to explain how it is that Donald Trump currently presides over America's hostile political climate. Against this backdrop, how do we get our voices heard? How do we as a society consistently apply peaceful political pressure to our elected officials?
Congressman John Lewis (Georgia), the subject of Kathleen Dowdey's excellent Get In the Way: The Journey of John Lewis, has an incisive answer to this concern. At the beginning of the one hour documentary (to premiere on PBS Friday, 10 February at 10:30 PM EST), Lewis states in his characteristically earnest matter "Tell the story. Tell it over and over again."
The story, which Lewis has re-told countless times over his legendary political career, is about the origins and nature of his pivotal role in the '60s Civil Rights Movement, and his continual infusion of activism into his later Congressional career. Get In the Way captures Lewis's lifelong philosophy on civil disobedience, which is to "find a way to get in the way. To get people to see what's happening."
In addition to a litany of interviews with Lewis, civil rights icons, and members of Congress, Dowdey delivers dynamic photo and video coverage of Lewis's pivotal moments as an activist. By spending 20 years compiling a combination of archival footage with Lewis's more recent work on behalf of universal health care, immigration, and gay rights, Dowdey learned a great deal about the diverse and inclusive nature of activism.
"I had a very narrow perception of the definition of activism before I worked on this documentary," Dowdey says, "What I realized in making this film is that there are writer activists, filmmaker activists, visual artists and all kinds of people in the arts who are essential toward the whole picture of activism."
According to Dowdey, Lewis has opened many people's eyes to how they can get involved, in part due to his "very humble beginnings", which makes him "very relatable to everyone." Early in Get in the Way, the audience is taken on a trip to Lewis's childhood home in Alabama, which, during the '50s was a sharecropper farm. Lewis is seen with his family as a gentle, grandfatherly man surrounded by a down to earth, good humored friends and relatives. In one scene, Lewis is talking to a girl about how he used to preach to chickens on the farm. The moment has an unassuming, lived in quality to it, as if Lewis could be just as comfortable being a slightly goofy grandfather as he would a famous, iron-willed Congressman.
"John will engage in a very attentive way with everyone from little kids to older people," Dowdey says when reminiscing back to the film's warm familial scenes. "He's genuinely interested in everybody. It makes people think 'well yeah, I could work with this guy. I could do something with this guy.'"
Dowdey intertwines Lewis's home visit with black and white historic footage of Alabama farmland in the '50s, and the racially segregated shops from town. Lewis's voiceover, avuncular and intimate, describes the farm land as incessantly arid, and the work as constantly overwhelming under extreme heat. When Lewis tries to explain in another interview clip that sharecropping was little more than an exhausting gamble laden with increasing debt, his relvative cogently interjects, "it was still slavery". Lewis lets out a chuckle in agreement — yet another mechanism to let the audience in on the conversation, which is at once shocking, but comes across as a common sentiment among Lewis's family.
The film then jumps into footage of the Montgomery boycotts. Overall, the sharp sequence is a tightly packaged, powerful testament as to how the combination of personal suffering and movement was a propulsive force toward Lewis's emergence as a civil rights leader in the United States.
"I had to remain conscious of choosing the key stories in a way to show how Lewis was evolving throughout his lifetime, but without overwhelming the audience with repetitive detail," Dowdey replied when asked about the film's narrative style, which at times jumps over a few years at a time.
The strategy worked remarkably well given Get In the Way's tight run-time, which is just under an hour. The documentary moves through Lewis's life at a lively pace with a dynamic non-sequential blend of Lewis's activism during the '60s with his participation in present day protests, as well as interview clips with Lewis over various periods in his life. Through this sweeping and at times non-linear style, Get In the Way gives the audience a sense of Lewis not so much as a biographical subject, but as Representative John Larson put it, an "experience seared into our collective memory."
Get In the Way's most emotionally powerful coverage is of Lewis's tenure as a leader of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee in the '60s. The emotional impact of this segment is readily derived from Lewis's courageousness in enduring arrests and violence as consequences of his peaceful civil disobedience during restaurant sit-ins, The Freeedom Rides , and the The Selma to Montgomery March of 1965. However, there's still much to be said about the documentary's generous usage of black and white photography to depict Lewis's arrests and the mixed responses to his protests.
"I notice in those photos the composition is very careful to include the context around what is going on, which is very important," Dowdey stated. "This was not just an isolated event which was happening. These photos give you a sense of how new and radical what these civil rights activists were doing was."
The visual background of the photos is essential to their lasting impact. As Dowdey explained, "photos depicting where Lewis is being hauled away by the police or being challenged with a billy club also include people staring and wondering in the background. The people who were watching, the mix of either black or white faces, all this gives you a sense of how new and radical what was going on was perceived."
In this regard, one way to fully appreciate Get in the Way is to re-watch the film and frequently pause it and pay careful attention to these photos. Look closely at Lewis's emotional response to his arrests; his expression conveys a mix of fear and resolution. Study the blood on Lewis's face after he was physically assaulted at a fateful stop during the Freedom Ride. Compare these images in the foreground to some of the angry faces in the background; to those individuals desperately holding on to antiquated party lines. Think about how people in this country could ever want to go back to "the good old days", and the decades of sacrifice that decent, loving people fought to put those days behind this country.
Throughout Get In the Way there's continuity between Lewis's activisim during the '60s and his current tenure as a Congressman. The film juxtaposes Lewis's civil rights activism with his role as a conscious voice in Congress on behalf of the fundamental fair treatment of others. In one particularly riveting scene, he preaches the virtues of peaceful protest at an immigration reform rally in Atlanta, Georgia in 2011. In another, we see Lewis walk with dignity past protestors who verbally abuse him while he heads to Capitol Hill to vote on Obama's Healthcare Bill in March, 2010. These parallels between people who have confronted Lewis in the past and again to this day highlights his lasting importance to a civil rights movement which, sadly, is still a long way from reaching its ideal.
Get in the Way doesn't veer into the specifics of Lewis's Congressional career — perhaps a minor blight which can be easily addressed by some additional research — Dowdey was going for a more holistic point about Lewis's importance as a Congressional activist.
"What is interesting to me in his role as a congressman is that he gives the meaning of 'politician' a real spin," Dowdey explains, "John Lewis embodies a sense of possibility. He is the conscious of Congress. Activism and Congressional leadership is a two way street for him, and he understands how to use both who he is and what he has done to be highly persuasive toward the issues he wants to support."
Indeed, incorporation of a more diverse set of politically progressive voices into Congress is the next necessary step toward a more peaceful, egalitarian America. As Get in the Way skillfully argues, this goal requires the constant interweaving of stories about resolute activism into our political fabric.
"I think we can never have imaged we would finish and broadcast the film in the climate our nation is in right now," Dowdey muses, "What happened 50-years-ago and the fight Congressman Lewis and other members of the movement were going through, have a unique ability to offer us an idea of the sheer need for persistence."
Or, to put it in Congressman Lewis's words, effective activism can only come "by people building and working together. We're talking about people building a lasting peace, a community at peace with itself."

text: BERTS BLOG: I know what you think - after my last blog post regarding my habit of marking my territory and leaving messages - however, I was not the culprit of knocking this tree over. Although I may have inadvertently directed my three legged dance at this message post I had nothing at all to do with the fact that it fell into the lake. Despite the Mrs trying to make me feel bad and to curb my natural instincts while wearing my lead (which I am quite capable of carrying myself without the Mrs attached to the other end) I knew by the lack of scent that any message on this particular tree was not left by me! In fact it was left by France's version of storm Doris which we found had happened about three weeks before we arrived and what I class as my personal swimming sanctuary had eight trees blown down around it, two of which had fallen into the water and this was one of them. Needless to say I was ecstatic never had I seen so many sticks laying around. I was spoiled for choice and proceeded to run around collecting as many as I could to give to the Boss and Mrs who both promptly put them in a huge pile. Was this some new hobby which I knew nothing about? Disaster - they burnt all my new sticks. Without a fur coat like me I assume they had to keep warm somehow but what a waste, especially as later in the week my new mate Frederique and his tractor arrived and pulled the fallen trees from the water, turned them into logs with his chainsaw and the pile grew so large that the Boss and the Mrs will never have to worry about keeping warm again and in future will hopefully leave my sticks ALONE!!

Last week, Wassim Tappuni was sentenced in London to 6 years in prison after being found guilty of 13 fraud charges following a trial at Southwark Crown Court in July.
Prosecutor Mukul Chawla, QC, said: "
Tappuni's conviction related to corruption in procurement processes and involved 12 companies who paid him 65 bribes across no less than 29 contracts (split into 50 lots) with the World Bank and UNDP. He made £170,000 from his employment with those
He was an "expert" in medical equipment procurement, and the contracts related to projects to supply hospitals and laboratories in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, including projects in Albania, Romania, Uzbekistan, Iraq, Bulgaria and other countries. He hid his ill-gotten gains in a tax-free Swiss bank account, while living in Kinston-upon-Thames, just out of London. A German consultant, Anton Schlenger, is accused of being part of the scheme; the UK authorities failed to extradite him to stand trial but he is under investigation by the German authorities.
At least eight of the supplying firms involved have already been hit by World Bank sanctions. For instance,
- The Netherlands is looking into payments to Tappuni by Dutch medical-services company DRC. It is this investigation that eventually led to Tappuni's trial in the UK.
- Romania is investigating Dick Van Halewijn, a Dutch executive of medical products company
- Switzerland, where Tappuni funneled some funds, is probing an unnamed individual for money laundering.
- Austria is investigating Vienna-based medical-equipment maker Odelga Med and three individuals.
It is interesting for us as procurement geeks to see that Tappuni seems to have used quite a range of the fraudulent techniques we've seen over the years to corrupt the public procurement process. He tipped off his
The point about getting the lower-priced bid disqualified also seems to contradict his own barrister who claimed in mitigation that there was nothing to 'suggest the wrong company won' in any of the corrupted procurement processes.
Any procurement corruption is wrong of course, but it seems worse when it is in effect connected with public money that should be used for worthwhile purposes. As the Daily Mail reported, "Judge

House by the Road Print
$ 74.00
No one ever bothers the witchy old lady who lives in this isolated house. Few travel the single-lane road that passes her house and winds through the hollows of the hills. That road doesn't appear on most maps and seems to lead only to lonely crossroads. Still, just in case, the woods crowd around her home, protecting her and hers from trespassers and any who would do her harm. Hunters might catch site of the house through the trees, but something gives them pause, and they turn around and go elsewhere. Better than a Keep Out sign.
