Professional Water Heater Installation Services in Perris
At Pipeline Plumbing & Drain Specialists, our 5-star rated service team has the skill and experience needed to solve any water heater problem, and offer fast, cost-effective installation and replacement services for water heaters of all types in Perris, CA – including gas and electric models, storage tank water heaters, and tankless water heaters.
The type of water heater you have in your home can have a significant effect on your comfort and energy costs: while a conventional storage tank water heater does a great job of providing a nearly instant supply of hot water, sustained use can cause supply to run out. On the other hand, a tankless water heater provides virtually unlimited hot water and must be properly installed and maintained to achieve the best results.
At Pipeline Plumbing, we can install and replace both:
Storage Tank Water Heaters
Tank water heaters heat and store 30 to 75 gallons of water at a time. When you come to the end of your tank, it takes time for more hot water to be produced. Large families or heavy water users may find that a tankless option serves them better.
Tankless Water Heaters
Housed in a small, compact cabinet without the need for a tank, your tankless water heater provides unlimited, on-demand hot water. Tankless models save space, reduce energy waste, and eliminate the chance for tank rupture or flooding. Though they cost more upfront, tankless heaters save money month to month. They are also an environmentally friendly choice for eco-savvy homeowners.

Project Details
Cancer is the major cause of death worldwide, and breast cancer is the 4th leading cause of cancer death in Taiwan. Treatment of breast cancer becomes challenge when metastasis is development. We found several potent markers, which could be served as the drug targets in invasive ductal carcinoma, including prohibitin (PHB). PHB plays oncogenic roles in breast cancer, and overexpression of PHB on plasma membrane promotes cell migratory activity. Rocaglamide A (RocA) isolated from Aglaia elliptifolia by Taiwan researches has been reported to target PHB protein-protein interaction domain, which provides physical interaction with RAF1 and modulate oncogenic RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK signaling. Our previous findings also demonstrated that RocA exhibits potent anticancer activities by reducing cell proliferation, inducing cell cycle arrest, inhibiting cell migration, downregulating epithelial-mesenchymal transition, activating autophagy pathway, and triggering apoptotic cell death. However, the detailed molecular mechanism, especially in signaling transduction pathways, RocA takes remains unclear. To expand the understanding of the effects of RocA in breast cancer cells, the major objective of this proposal is to elucidate the RocA induced phosphorylation-mediated pathways as the molecular basis for improving breast cancer therapy. The specific aims are 1. To study the effects of RocA on RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK signaling in breast cancer cells in presence and in absence of surface localized PHB. (Year 1) 2. To discover how RocA induced autophagy and apoptosis in breast cancer cells. (Year 1~2) 3. To elucidate RocA altered phosphorylation signaling in breast cancer cells relaying on RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway. (Year 2~3) 4. To construct the RocA induced kinase-substrate associated network (KSAN) in breast cancer, and to verify the RocA triggered KSAN in vitro. (Year 3~4) 5. To examine the efficacy of RocA by xenograft models and to verify the RocA triggered KSAN in vitro and in vivo. (Year 4)

A number of staff who work at a Tesco store in Exeter have tested positive for coronavirus.
A spokesperson for the supermarket chain has confirmed that there have been a number of colleagues from the Exeter Vale Tesco store with Covid-19.
It comes after workers at Exmouth's superstore tested positive for coronavirus just last month (December 21).
Following the confirmed cases, a spokesperson for Tesco said: ''A small number of colleagues at our Exeter Vale Extra have tested positive for Covid-19.
''Their close contacts have been informed.
''The safety of our colleagues, customers and suppliers remains our number one priority and we are working with local public health authorities, following all Government guidance and taking the relevant precautions.
Want to hear more from Devon Live? Sign up to our FREE newsletters here.
''We have extensive measures across all of our stores to help keep everyone safe, including protective screens at every checkout, social distancing signage and regular cleaning."
Today (January 6) Devon Live reported that the number of deaths registered across Devon and Cornwall where Covid-19 was mentioned on the death certificate has fallen to the lowest level for six weeks.
The figures from the Office of National Statistics (ONS) which relate to the week of December 19 to December 25, but registered up to January 2, show that 27 of the 285 deaths registered in the two counties had Covid-19 mentioned on the death certificate.
The previous week saw 43 of the 402 deaths registered in the two counties had Covid-19 mentioned on the death certificate.
The reduction in the number of deaths may be a combination as a result of the second lockdown, due to the time lag between infection and death, but also could be a result of registration delays over the Christmas holiday period.

Expands Trinity Land Position
Identifies Drill Target for 2018 Testing
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE….Vancouver, British Columbia: Wealth Minerals Ltd. (the "Company" or "Wealth") – (TSXV: WML; OTCQB: WMLLF; SSE: WMLCL; Frankfurt: EJZN), reports that it has received positive results from geophysical surveys conducted on and around certain concessions (the "Project") in the Company's Trinity project that comprise a portion of the Trinity project, and has identified a high-priority drill target for planned testing in March 2018.
"This is a Tier 1 property and, within the extensive Wealth property portfolio, it is one of the properties with potentially the highest-grade lithium brines. It has been known for some time that the surface brines in this basin grade up to 425 mg/l lithium," stated Henk van Alphen, Wealth's CEO. "Now, the results of the extensive geophysical survey completed for Wealth have shown that there is a thick, highly conductive layer underlying the surface brines, beginning at 50m below surface and extending to at least 300m below surface. Wealth intends to drill test this anomaly in Q1 2018."
Geophysical Survey Results
Transient Electromagnetic ("TEM") surveys identified highly conductive zones, which are interpreted to represent porous media with high-salinity fluids (potentially lithium-bearing brines) at depth. Multiple anomalies are identified within the survey area with several potential drill targets (Figure 1). On the basis of TEM data, Line 2 (Figures 1 and 2) southwest of surface brine area, represents the highest priority target with the highest tenor conductivity (lower resistivity) suggesting greater saturation and/or higher salinity.
The survey was completed by Southernrock Geophysics S.A. and consisted of a total of 88 stations of 200m coincident loop TEM sites located along 11 lines (Figure 3). Data was processed according to standard methodologies and 1D inversion modelling was used to generate compiled sections and 3D visualizations.
Project Background
Independent analysis published by signum BOX (2014) differentiates the top 15 lithium brine projects in Chile as Tier 1, 2 or 3. The Project is listed as Tier 1, together with Atacama, Maricunga, Pedernales, and La Isla. Projects in this top-tier category have an expected lithium concentration ranging from 423 mg/l to 1,080 mg/l. The Company has not completed sampling of surface brines, but historical sampling completed in 2013 by SERNAGEOMIN (Chilean National Geology and Mining Service) returned surface brine lithium grades ranging from 6 to 425 mg/l.

Line 2 is highlighted and shown as a section below (Figure 2).

Property Expansion
The option to acquire the original exploration concessions in the Project was acquired by the Company in 2016 (see news release dated July 29, 2016) and comprise an area of 2,400 hectares covering the southern portion of the basin (green outline, Figure 3), with the remainder of the surface brines (5,900 hectares) in the basin being held by Sociedad Química y Minera. Access to the property is via Route 27, a paved highway which transects the northern portion of the property. The Project is located in San Pedro de Atacama, Province of El Loa, II Region of Antofagasta, Northern Chile.
The Company now announces that its wholly-owned Chilean subsidiary, Wealth Minerals Chile SpA has entered into an property purchase option agreement with an arm's length private Chilean company (the "Vendor"), whereby subject to acceptance of the agreement for filing with the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"), the Company has been granted the option (the "Option") to acquire an additional 23 exploration concessions covering in aggregate 5,700 hectares (the "Pacana Concessions") on the flanks of the Project (red outline, Figure 3), for a total land package in the basin of 8,100 hectares. In order to exercise the Option, the Company must issue in aggregate 2,000,000 common shares in its capital to the Vendor of the concessions, as outlined in Table 1. Upon the issuance of the property option shares, the Company will be deemed to have exercised the Option and will have earned an undivided 100% legal and beneficial royalty-free interest in and to the Pacana Concessions. Any shares issued to the Vendor will be subject to a hold period in Canada of 4 months and a day from the date of issuance. The Company is required to keep the concessions comprising the Pacana Concessions in good standing throughout the term of the Option.

About Wealth Minerals Ltd.
Wealth is a mineral resource company with interests in Mexico, Peru and Chile. The Company's main focus is the acquisition of lithium projects in Chile. To date, the Company has acquired interests at the Trinity project, Laguna Verde project, and the Five Salars project, as well as the prolific Atacama, where the Company has acquired land alongside existing lithium producers.
Almost 40% of global lithium production is sourced from the Atacama. Atacama's brines contain high grade lithium (1,840 mg/l) and potassium (22,630 mg/l). Production is from property held by CORFO (the Chilean Economic Development Agency) which it leases to both Sociedad Química y Minera (SQM) and Albermarle's Rockwood Lithium Corporation. Together these two companies have combined production of over 62,000 tonnes of Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE) annually making up 100% of Chile's current lithium output.
Lithium market dynamics and a rapidly increasing metal price are the result of profound structural issues with the industry meeting anticipated future demand. Wealth is positioning itself to be a major beneficiary of this future mismatch of supply and demand. The Company also maintains and continues to evaluate a portfolio of precious and base metal exploration-stage projects.

Medicare Part D: The Successes and the Challenges
The Medicare Part D prescription drug program open enrollment season begins today, October 15, and runs until December 7. This is the time all beneficiaries should be reviewing their current plans and shopping among their available options to make sure they are getting the best possible value in their prescription drug coverage.
The fact is that most Part D enrollees won't spend a great deal of time checking out different prescription drug plans during this period. When we analyze the reasons why, we see both good news and a message that a well-executed program could be carried out even more effectively.
The good news is that Medicare Part D enjoys overwhelming popularity, and people have a high rate of satisfaction with their current plan. The Medicare Today coalition, which HLC founded at the launch of the Part D program, conducts an annual survey with KRC Research to fully understand how seniors view their Part D coverage. This year's survey showed a 90 percent satisfaction rate, the highest level in the seven years we've been doing this polling.
This high satisfaction rate stems from both the user-friendliness of the Part D program as well as its affordability. Among the seniors surveyed, 94 percent say their plan is convenient to use and strong majorities say their monthly premiums (85 percent) and co-pays (86 percent) are affordable.
Two out of every three seniors say they are unlikely to shop for other Part D plans during this open enrollment period. The good news is that 91 percent say they won't shop because they're satisfied with their current coverage.
But where there is room for improvement is in the finding that 61 percent of seniors say they are unaware of the PlanFinder tool created by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and located on the www.medicare.gov website. The PlanFinder enables beneficiaries to easily type in the medications they're taking and find out the list of plans that are the best value for their individual needs. Every Medicare beneficiary should be aware of this tool.
So, despite the success of the Part D program, there's no room for complacency. The federal government, the private sector and non-profit advocacy organizations all have a responsibility to continue outreach to the Medicare beneficiary population, continuing to provide information on the Part D program and the consumer tools available to enrollees. In this way, the consumer choice aspects of Medicare Part D that make the program so popular and affordable can achieve optimum value in bettering the lives of the millions who participate in this vitally important program.

Just a brief update as I am literally kneeling in front of a trash-can which functions as a makeshift desk while I am editing images and writing this log entry. I am back in West Africa and yes, it's about Ebola again. But it's a totally different pace this time. I've spent a whole week on the road traveling rural districts and slept in bush hotels. Almost cried when I entered my room in the Hub Hotel in Freetown - amazingly clean and nice. First time in a week I had a shower without feeling unconformable stepping on the floor afterwards. After I was done working with SOS Kinderdorf I was embedded with burial teams in Zone 2 - that means Freetown and the surrounding area. What a horrible but important job theses guys are doing. They've been picking up dead bodies in the slums of Freetown all day - almost all of them suspected to have died of Ebola. Once their truck was packed with body bags we moved on to the cemetery - a massive graveyard especially for Ebola fatalities. What a sad place to work at.
On my last day in Freetown I've visited the Burial Team Training and talked to some of the men who applied to become a member of these units about their motivation. "Ebola is like a war and I want to fight for my country" one 21 year old man said to me. He probably has no clue what's waiting for him out there. Waving goodbye to the team I was working with the last days I continued to meet Fonti, a 40-year old survivor of Ebola who hast lost both children and his wife to the disease. He himself survived Ebola and can't infect himself anymore for at least a couple of months (no exact numbers at that time). He now works at a Ebola Treatment Center.
Way back to the airport, Pelican ferry at 11pm. People watching Champions League (Arsenal vs. Dortmund, Arsenal won) while waiting. Still 33°C and 50% humidity. I stopped caring about sweating, got used to feeling sticky. Still no confirmation of my UNHAS flight back to Liberia. No idea how to get to the airport hotel upon arrival past midnight. The thought of arriving in a rural area after a one hour ferry ride packed with my gear - not something I looked forward to.
In the end I've became friends with one of the luggage guys working at the ferry… after chatting about Bayern Munich and soccer they called some friends who would pick me up in Lungi where the boat arrives and take me to the airport hotel. Sounded not really trustworthy but what were my options anyway? So I went on the ferry and rushed through the bay to the Island (?) where the airport is located. 15 minutes through pitch black night with salt water spraying into the ship every now and then and occasional stops due to engine problems. TIA - This is Africa.
I spent the night at the Airport Hotel in Lungi. Got my old room, met the same cockroaches I left alive last time and fell asleep - at least for a few hours until I had to get up again. Way back to Monrovia. My UN flight was supposed to fly at 9am. Usually you have to be there two hours in advance. But when I arrived at 7am I found nothing but a tumbleweed at the airport. Even the immigration desks were empty - so I was stuck there with no phone connection (as my Liberian phone stopped working) and no internet to check details. The security staff that showed up told me to wait, so I did.. for hours. 9am - still no passengers, no UN personnel. I started to get nervous. Finally I found someone to borrow their phone from so I could call the liaison officer in Kenya and guess what: The flight has been re-scheduled to 1300. The UN has sent me a mail minutes after I've left the hotel and therefor of course I didn't get it. So I've spent 5 hours at the Airport, made new friends with the staff and killed time by watching African TV shows in Creol on flatscreens mounted to the walls turned to max. volume for no audience but me. Awesome! I'm starting to develop a little Africa fatigue. I mean I love this country for it's "easy going" mentality but after 16 years of frequent work over here it sometimes starts killing me… boarding my flight now. Farewell, Sierra Leone!

Originally published in "The Lord's Coming Herald & Wesleyan Bible Prophecy Advocate," August Edition 2008
Toward Understanding The Dispensational Sin Of Unbelief
"And when he [the Holy Ghost] is come, he will reprove the world of sin
. . . . Of sin because they believe not on me" (Jn. 16:8-9). ". . . this is
the work of God that ye believe on him whom he hath sent" (Jn. 6:29).
Why is it, friends, that we seldom, if ever, hear a dispensationally indoctrinated
preacher in the Holiness Movement give a full-fledged sermon on the kingdom of
God, which Jesus and His apostles preached? (See Matt. 4:23; 9:35; 10:7; Acts
8:12; 20:25; and 28:30-31 for a few of many references that indicate this
kingdom preaching.)
The reason that most will preach nearly anything but the New Testament gospel
of the kingdom, my friends, is because these preachers do not believe that the
messianic kingdom of God has been established on earth as a present reality.
They do not believe in the kingdom of God, as it has been revealed to us in
the New Testament.
Thus, to talk much about the "kingdom" becomes an embarrassment to these
preachers' latent dispensational theology. In order to do so they would have
to bring in distinctions involving the so-called "millennium" that are
exegetically painful, making both themselves and their congregations feel
nervous and uncomfortable.
In order to avoid the embarrassment of their own inadequate comprehension of Jesus' doctrine of His kingdom, and in order to avoid controversy with those who may raise their eyebrows over to much going off the deep end in premillennial eschatology, these preachers and evangelists studiously avoid dealing much at all with the central idea of the New Testament, which is the kingdom of God.
Amazing, isn't it?
Far more than amazing, friends, is the tragic sadness of these misled teachers' sin of unbelief in the revelation of God.
Think about it.

* Bob Enyart and Fred Williams Talk About Air and Life: The Real Science Radio co-hosts talk about animals, both on land and in the sea, designed to live comfortably with the enormous amounts of atmospheric and water pressure pressing in and down on us. The guys recommend that everyone subscribe to Answers Magazine from Ken Ham's Answers in Genesis ministry, where they found the article, Air Mass: A Weighty Topic in the 2012 winter edition.
* Florida Listener Asks about Amino Acids and Abortion: Isaac from Florida asked Bob and Fred to ponder the contradictory claims of many atheists regarding abiogenesis and abortion. By the way, abiogenesis is the study of how biological life might arise from inanimate matter through natural processes. (In their current debate on creation, Bob and the atheist AronRa both mentioned Lord Kelvin, a leading scientist who worked for decades after the publication of Darwin's Origin. Please consider his quote on abiogenesis from from the address he delivered as president of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, when after referencing the "vast mass of inductive evidence" in science, Lord Kelvin wrote:
"I am ready to adopt, as an article of scientific faith, true through all space and through all time, that life proceeds from life, and from nothing but life." -Kelvin
So, comparing abiogenesis to abortion, our listener Isaac references a 1952 experiment in which Miller and Urey synthesized amino acids in a test tube. Talk about better living through chemistry! That was an important accomplishment. But while amino acids are the building blocks of biological molecules, amino acids are not life. So Isaac points out a contradiction:
1) That amino acids are claimed as a representation of life (yet there is not even a living cell). And:
2) The male or female embryo, so full of living cells with his or her own DNA, etc... is not human life.
Now, American Right To Life has an article about the atheistic abortion activists who would contradict themselves by claiming that acid is life but an embryro is not life.
In a related story, after visiting the Denver Museum of Nature and Science with dozens of creationists and a local reporter, Bob pointed out a misleading exhibit headline referring to the 1953 Miller/Urey synthesis of amino acids which read: Life Created in the Lab? Bob wrote a letter to the editor to the Colorado Springs Gazette asking, "It's been fifty years since that Miller experiment! Don't they know if they made life yet or not?"
* Student from the School of Mines Weighs in on AronRa: Bob and Fred interview a local engineering student, Mark Bernhardt, about Bob's current debate with AronRa. It's fun!

1. You now have the chance to push the restart button within yourselves and be free, truly free of absolutely everything. You can be free of every "could have", "should have", or "would have". You are free from the past and are new in each moment.
2. You are free from any and all expectations. You accept that you did your best, however messy it may have looked. You make amends and move on. You have stopped beating yourself up and have stopped criticizing others for their mistakes.
3. You are free. You are truly free. A democratic society is a type of free society, but are people really free? Very few are. Very few give themselves permission to have free expression and to not buy into all of society's demands and expectations.
4. I am here to tell you to announce to the world, that demands and expectations are not based in love. Therefore, they can be politely excused from the building.
5. The only expectation that God has is that all of his children be happy, however that looks to them. God is always happy and if you are plugged into God, into love, then you will always be happy too.
6. Please model this and share it wherever you may travel. Even a prisoner can be free. His body may be confined but his soul never will be. I bless each of you, always, for doing this work and for being a part of the greatest movement that mankind has ever seen – a return to love.
End Time: 2:56pm 3.20.2020

Message # 1 | 10:03 AM 2009-06-24
What is a favicon? A favicon is a small icon (16x16 px) in a browser address bar (near the url of your website). All uCoz websites have the following default favicon:
How to replace the default icon by a custom one?
If this explanation is not enough then follow the steps below:
IE may not display the icon. To solve this problem try to paste the following code between < head> and < /head>:
<link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
I'm not active on the forum anymore. Please contact other forum staff.

I am having the same problem, every time I upload favicon.ico, it simply deletes the icon I had stored in the file, and replaces it with the default icon. This is file directly, not the website; however the website also displays the default icon. I have tried this several times on both the file manager and FTP client.
PS: I did this yesterday and 3 days ago, neither of them worked. They had same results.
This is what it is: http://cluckysalliance.ucoz.com/favicon.ico
and this is what I want it to be: http://cluckysalliance.ucoz.com/scripts/favicon.ico (this is not the actual location of the file, when i save it to the root folder, it replaces it with the default icon, as shown above)
Both the the two files were uploaded as the same file, however the first one reverted back to the default icon, however it does not have the information off to the side of it)
- - -
Alright, I opened my site with Internet Explorer instead of Firefox, and it shows the image that I want, however, Firefox still displays the default image. How can I fix this?

Hi, I can't insert the favicon (16*16 px): as I fill in the name in the File manager, a message pops up: "the name already exists". Can you help me please? Thanks in advance.
That means there is already a favicon.ico on your File Manager.

Kyle's update, Saturday, January 15, 9:20 a.m.: The Vikings have requested to interview 49ers DC DeMeco Ryans for their head coaching job, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero:
The #Vikings put in a request to interview #49ers DC DeMeco Ryans for their head coaching job, per source.— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) January 15, 2022
It speaks volumes to what the league thinks about Ryans as he received an interview one year into becoming a defensive coordinator.
Many have asked why the Vikings would go in the defensive direction again. Their offense is already set. Their core is in place. Also, it's more about the message.
Mike Zimmer comes off as a by-the-book, almost fear-based coach. Ryans is the opposite of that. He seems like the best version of what a player's coach is. It's been fun to watch him interact and evolve this year, so it's no surprise Ryans is wanted around the league.
Kyle's update, 12:32 p.m.: The Bears have requested to interview Ran Carthon for their general manager vacancy. Smart folks around the league talk about Carthon the way that most casuals talk about Peters.
Carthon has been the VP of Personnel for San Francisco since Shanahan took over. The former player was a pro scout with the Falcons before joining the 49ers.
Kyle's update, 8:54 a.m.: Per Tom Pelissero, the Dolphins have requested to interview 49ers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel. It only takes watching one press conference to understand McDaniel is wise beyond his years and knows what he's doing.
He's the brains behind the 49ers running game. I'm surprised the Dolphins are the only team to reach out for McDaniel. I doubt they'll be the last.
Fox Sports senior national writer and 49ers State of the Franchise host Peter Schrager tweeted Monday evening that the New York Giants have sought permission to interview two members from the Niners front office. Assistant general manager Adam Peters and Director of Player Personnel Ran Carthon.
Regarding Peters, it's felt like we've done this dance in each of the previous three offseasons. We talk about how the 49ers should move general manager John Lynch up the organizational charts — team president, for example — and promote Peters to general manager.
When you watch San Francisco you see a team full of young stars who are fast, physical, and make plays. It's easy to give the front office credit for hitting on Nick Bosa, Brandon Aiyuk, and Deebo Samuel.
But Jauan Jennings, who is essentially in his rookie year since he didn't play in 2020, and now Ambry Thomas, both played critical roles in aiding a 49er comeback victory against the Rams. Elijah Mitchell was a sixth-round pick and we've seen his importance to the offense. Emmanuel Moseley was an undrafted free agent. The list goes on and on.
Finding talent isn't just limited to the draft. Again, you don't get credit for acquiring Trent Williams. You do for value signings like Arden Key, or trading a seventh-rounder for Laken Tomlinson, who hasn't missed a game going on five seasons now.
Not all trades or free-agent signings have worked out, but it's naive to expect that to happen. Most of the swings the team has taken look bad in hindsight but were the correct moves at the time. Dee Ford comes to mind. I'd give Kwon Alexander a contract all over again.
So, is it likely the 49ers lose members from its coaching staff and front office this offseason? I asked Kyle Shanahan that very question, and if he's seen any head coach-like qualities from defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans Monday:
"Oh, definitely. I've seen head coach qualities out of DeMeco when he was a player. When he was a quality control, when he was a linebacker coach and now when he is a coordinator. So he's always had those qualities, it's just about him getting the reps and getting the experience. It's a matter of time with him. And he has already got enough, so if a team comes calling, they'll get a hell of a one, but I don't want to lose him yet.
So hopefully for my sake, and the Niners' sake, they let him get a few more years here, but I know he's ready. And I feel the same way about Mike. We've got a good staff here.
And what A.P. has done for us in our five years here and how much he's helped us build this. What [director of player personnel] Ran Carthon has done. We've got a lot of guys here who I feel very fortunate to have."
There are several offensive coordinators who don't have play-calling duties but get head coaching interviews. Why doesn't Mike McDaniel get the same treatment? The 49ers' wrinkles in the running game are second-to-none in the NFL.
This team gets tossed around too often but McDaniel is an actual creative genius. The offense ran the ball ten times in a row down the field against a defense that came into Sunday second in the NFL in rushing EPA per play allowed since Week 10.
Also, in a day where defensive coaches continue to flop, McDaniel feels like the perfect candidate to turn around an organization.
San Francisco is likely to lose one of Peters or Carthon soon. It's a bit early on Ryans, but I'd be shocked if he wasn't a head coach by the time Trey Lance's rookie contract is up.

D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty, Health Care And You
Commentary from Blanche Africa Reilly Dark:
All right people! Get it over it! I'm hearing all this fuss over Washington, D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty's decision, with his wife, to send his children to a so-called "good" public school; one that is better than his neighborhood school.
Will someone explain to me why this is a problem?!
The man has kept his campaign promise to send his youngsters to a public school. Fine! Let's give him an atta-boy for keeping his promise. He's the mayor. There are certain privileges that come with leadership positions. Why else would anyone run for public office? Satisfying personal ego demands are part of what makes Adrian, or Mike or Barack or Nancy or Hillary, anyone run.
I see this camflamma as simply another distraction from the issue of health care for citizens who are at risk without it. Lack of health care for 47 million citizens is disgraceful. The mayor of Washington D.C. sending his children to the best public school to meet their educational needs is not in the same category as the great nation we say we are leaving the people who make it great without access to proper medical care.
So local D.C. folks get over the moral outrage about the mayor's kids issue, and direct some indignation toward this health care legislation.
DEMAND health care reform NOW!

What is Persistent Depressive Disorder?
Imagine being sick for a long time—maybe even a lifetime—and not knowing it. Persistent Depressive Disorder (PDD) affects people that way. It's a stealthy illness, hard to detect, yet quietly disabling.
Persistent Depressive Disorder—the depression formerly known as dysthymia—is a chronic, milder form of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). The symptoms for both are the usual suspects in depressive illness: a down mood, fatigue, despair, trouble eating and sleeping, and poor concentration.
In adults, it takes two symptoms and two years to establish a Persistent Depressive Disorder diagnosis. During that time, patients may feel fine for up to two months at a time. They could also flame into a major depressive episode. But where Major Depressive Disorder boils and cools, Persistent Depressive Disorder simmers at a low, slow burn.
Causes and Risk Factors
Persistent Depressive Disorder strikes roughly 2 percent of Americans in a given year. Why them? Heredity, age, social standing, and mental health history explain a lot.
Chronic depression runs deep in the gene pool. Genetics influence everything from the age when symptoms first appear to how long and severe the depression will be. The patient's closest relatives are the most vulnerable, but the extended clan isn't spared, either. PDD in the family also increases risk for attempted suicide, panic, or substance use disorders.
Persistent Depressive Disorder typically shows up around age 20. People who lose a parent during childhood, who grow up in a difficult family environment, or who develop anxiety disorders early in life are likely to get a PDD diagnosis before age 18. Patients with long histories of PDD may also mistakenly grow to accept the disorder as their "normal."
Persistent Depressive Disorder affects more women than men and the divorced more than the married. PDD risk also increases for people who lack social or economic power, based on factors such as education, occupation, and income. Race makes a difference, too: PDD affects more Native Americans and white people than blacks, Asians, or Hispanics.
Pre-existing conditions
People who have anxiety or personality disorders are extra-susceptible to Persistent Depressive Disorder.
Brain wiring
Research suggests that, like all forms of chronic depression, Persistent Depressive Disorder likely results from a disconnect within the brain circuitry that regulates mood and stress. Increased activity in the brain's emotional centers brings on the signature gloom of depression, while decreased activity in the executive areas impairs attention and drains energy.
Diagnosing Persistent Depressive Disorder
Frequently, after hearing a complaint of longstanding pain and sadness, the doctor will look for these diagnostic clues:
The number one characteristic is a depressed mood. People suffering from Persistent Depressive Disorder experience low mood for the majority of days for two years without a break for longer than two months.
During this time, patients endure at least two of six additional symptoms.
- Weight fluctuations. People with PDD may lose or gain noticeable weight—a reflection of disordered eating habits.
- Sleep changes. Many PDD patients have trouble falling and staying asleep, yet wake up early. Some sleep way too much and may have trouble getting up.
- Fatigue. People with PDD have low energy and are chronically tired.
- Low self-esteem. These people are less confident and less proud of themselves.
- Concentration issues. As with other types of depression, attention deficits affect many PDD sufferers.
- A state of stuck. Disappointment and hopelessness can immobilize people in the grip of PDD. They may feel as though they've wasted their lives or failed to live up to expectations.
Intermittent major depressive episodes may occur and subside back to the lower-grade symptoms of PDD. Unfortunately, the symptoms of Persistent Depressive Disorder tend to last longer and resist treatment more than Major Depressive Disorder. The main difference between PDD and MDD is the time; PDD lasts much longer.
Persistent Depressive Disorder can masquerade as hormonal imbalances, drug side effects, or a metabolic disorder. Also, simple lab tests can rule out whether something physical is causing the depression. Expect your doctor to order these before making a final diagnosis of PDD.
Treating Persistent Depressive Disorder
If a therapy works for one depressive disorder, chances are it will work for another. That's why the prevailing plan for treating PDD covers antidepressant medication, psychotherapy, or—most powerfully—some combination thereof.
The medication piece
Clinicians primarily rely on two classes of antidepressants to combat PDD: SSRIs and SNRIs. Both drugs block the neurotransmitter serotonin, a mood-regulating chemical found in abundance throughout the central nervous system (among many other body parts). The "N" in SNRI adds norepinephrine, a stress hormone, to the antidepressant's targets.
Celexa (citalopram), Luvox (fluvoxamine), Paxil (paroxetine), Prozac (fluoxetine) and Zoloft (sertraline) are brands of SSRIs.
Effexor (venlafaxine) and Cymbalta (duloxetine) are brands of SNRIs.
The therapy piece
Antidepressants enable healing to begin. Talk therapy unpacks why you hurt in the first place and how best to get better. Best practices include interpersonal therapy, which focuses on the relationship and social issues contributing to depression, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which aims to retrain negative thoughts and emotions.
Managing Persistent Depressive Disorder
See the family doctor
Because they know you best, consider consulting your primary care physician (PCP) about your depression symptoms. They might start with the PHQ-9 or a similar screening tool that measures depression severity. From there, PCPs can order lab tests, make the diagnosis or offer a second opinion, then treat or refer as needed.
Give treatment time
Antidepressants need several weeks to begin their work. The doctor may gradually increase the dose over that period until the patient either shows signs of improvement or reaches the maximum dose with no effect. Some patients need to try several different medications to find the one that works best for them.
Learn to love exercise
According to a review of 23 randomized controlled trials, exercise most likely improves symptoms of depression. No triathlon necessary, either: activities such as walking, jogging, dancing and yoga can help the body fight pain and stress, build self-esteem, and improve sleep.
Seek, don't hide
Seclusion and loneliness only deepen depression. Friends don't let friends withdraw from the world. Find a support group (even online forums qualify).
Expect the moon
Know that PDD is an illness that waxes and wanes, even during treatment. Trust that recovery is possible.

Addiction Habits Similar to Individuals with Obesity
A recent Ted talk given by NIDA director Nora Volkow, M.D., about brains of people with obesity indicated some interesting findings. Volkow found that just as with addiction, similar changes happen in the brains of obese individuals when obesity sets in. This seems fairly straightforward: both addiction and obesity involve the way the brain responds to rewarding things, our pleasure centers.
The Ted talk discussed how over the years the world has evolved from a place where there were many dangers and few pleasurable rewards. Individuals would do anything to brave the dangers and receive the rare reward. Today's society is very different for the most part. Most individuals have little danger in their lives and a lot of pleasurable rewards. Many of those pleasurable rewards come in the form of tasty treats, high calorie foods, and sodas. There are no roadblocks or obstacles to eating this rewarding pleasurable food and so obesity has become more and more common.
However, Volkow discusses that the brain hasn't evolved to the point where it sees high calorie foods as a threat or a danger. Individuals, for the most part, still perceive treats as a reward and the results for our physical well being on society are harmful.
Quoting from the Ted talk, Volkow indicated that, "The sensory assault by very appealing-looking food triggers a fight within my brain, to just give in and eat the pleasurable food NOW, even though I know I will feel guilty LATER, versus resisting the urge NOW so I can have a healthy meal LATER. It's like having a war within my brain that is pulling me in two opposite directions."
Just like with drug addiction, the tasty foods that are so easily accessible to us trigger a dopamine reaction which becomes less sensitive over time. In other words, the reward center gets used to this trigger of dopamine and in turn requires more and more of the tasty food to produce the same effect over time. When Volkow performed brain scans on the individuals with obesity she found that their reward centers were similar to individuals addicted to cocaine.
Also similar is the actions of obese people that Volkow discusses. She indicates that people don't choose to be addicted just like they don't choose to be obese. No one wants to be addicted or to be obese. But it is so hard not to give in to the desire of having something to give you the dopamine pleasure release that individuals who struggle with this eventually cave and give in. And most often, these individuals resent themselves for it.
This informative Ted talk by Nora Volkow really connected the diseases of addiction and obesity and shows how they are so similar in how they affect our brains.

ARPA funds can help young adults transitioning out of foster care
Tuition grants, housing aid, cash assistance should all be on the table
Eighteen-year olds with few family supports and resources are expected to secure housing, a job, and live independently, often with little preparation. Teens who age out of foster care often experience homelessness, unemployment, and poverty. The National Foster Youth Institute estimates that one-quarter of youth formerly in foster care experience homelessness within four years of aging out of the child welfare system and are arrested within two. About half of youth emancipated from foster care have chronic health conditions like asthma, post-traumatic stress, malnutrition, and dental decay and up to one-third lack health insurance. Fewer than 5 percent will earn a bachelor's degree.
Early in the pandemic, a poll of 172 youth formerly in foster care, aged 18-24, by the nonprofit Foster Club showed that more than a quarter were suffering from food insecurity. Nearly 40 percent of respondents had been forced to move or feared having to do so. Twenty-seven percent had been laid off because of the pandemic, while another 40 percent had their hours severely cut or saw a decrease in gig work.
Federal lawmakers recognized this need when they created the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), the $1.9 trillion pandemic relief package signed into law in March. The law gives young adults age 18-24 who were formerly in foster care access to the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) for one year. The tax credit lets people who are working full-time, but earning less than $21,000 annually, claim up to $1,500 in federal tax benefits. Prior to ARPA's passage, childless adults up to age 25 were not eligible for the credit.
But so much more can—and should—be done.
Here are some of our ideas.
First and foremost young adults formerly in foster care need cash, as the federal government clearly recognized with the expansion of the EITC. Because they so often lack the support of parents or other adult family members, transition-age youth don't benefit from things like parental loans or gifts that enable young adults to rent and furnish an apartment, go to college, or purchase a reliable car for work. There are few people they can rely on in a crisis such as a pandemic. Respondents to the Foster Club survey talked of rationing food, running out of food, being denied food stamps, and having to borrow money and food from others during last year's shutdown. Using ARPA funds to provide transition-age youth with a Universal Basic Income (UBI)—monthly, no-strings-attached cash payments—would go a long way toward easing stressors related to costs associated with aging out of foster care and achieving self-sufficiency.
UBI is an anti-poverty measure that has gained traction in the COVID-19 era due to widespread unemployment, and results from pilot programs in places like Stockton, California, are showing positive impact such as increased full-time employment, improved financial stability and overall well-being. Participants in the $500-a-month, two-year program spent much of the money on necessities like food, utilities, hygiene products, and auto costs. A program in Finland showed similar results. Closer to home, the cities of Cambridge and Chelsea are currently piloting UBI programs to offset the effects of the pandemic on low-income families.
Even better, Los Angeles County has just approved a UBI program geared explicitly toward former foster youth. The planned program will give $1,200 a month to 150 young adults aged 18-24 who have nowhere else to turn for assistance. Jacqueline Robles, a 22-year-old who hopes to be selected for the program, described graduating from college and being emancipated from care just as the pandemic hit last year, leaving her at risk of becoming homeless. UBI, she said, "definitely allows you to relieve that financial burden that foster youth often face with lack of family support, that my peers may have that I wouldn't."
As Robles's story illustrates, youth formerly in foster care need access to housing. ARPA funding could be put to good use to create low-cost housing options for transition-age youth. In Madison, Wisconsin, for example, Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway has earmarked more than $6.5 million of the city's ARPA allotment to expand affordable housing options explicitly for youth aging out of foster care, among others. We'd love to see local mayors follow suit.
The Commonwealth could also infuse existing programs for transition-age youth with ARPA funds to expand their capacity. Take, for example, the state's Foster Child Grant Program, which provides grants of up to $6,000 per year up to five years to help foster children pay tuition at a college or university of their choosing. While that's a generous sum, given the cost of a college education today, increasing the size of the grants with ARPA funds would further defray expenses and student-loan debt for former foster youth. Likewise, the state could increase grants made through the Education and Training Voucher Program, which provides financial assistance for transition-age youth enrolling in post-secondary education and vocational training.
Massachusetts also has a State College Tuition and Fee Waiver Program, which waives tuition for youth formerly in foster care who attend public universities and community colleges. The waiver doesn't currently cover books or room and board. ARPA funds could be used to fill that financial gap and provide more stability for former foster youth, thereby increasing their chances of success.

Everybody Calm Down: Girls Aloud Promise That They Are Not Splitting Up
TV-borne British girl group Girls Aloud has been the source of split rumors by the overheated press in their homeland this week, thanks to one member arriving in the States to work on a solo album with will.i.am and another telling a UK magazine that she now considered herself "an actress with a girlband on the side." What could all this outside activity mean? Well, according to a post that the Girls made on their Web site yesterday, it doesn't mean that they're breaking up—in fact, it just means that they're recharging their batteries. (Whew!)
"We've decided to write this note together, because we want to set the record straight about what is happening in our world. Over the next 12 months we are going to be involved in a lot of different things—music, TV, fashion and more. Sometimes it may be a solo project—sometimes just a couple of us and sometimes all five of us together. We are definitely NOT splitting up. In fact we have all signed a new contract with Fascination/Polydor Records guaranteeing that we will release at least three Girls Aloud albums – minimum. We will definitely all be going into the studio next year to record—and there will definitely be a new GA album in 2010."
The Popstars The Rivals-spawned group put out their most recent album Out Of Control late last year. Their Pet Shop Boys collaboration "The Loving Kind" is absolutely smashing (I actually heard it on the in-store Muzak at a chain clothing store over the weekend, and mourned the Girls' lack of ability to crack American radio while looking for a shirtdress), while the lead single from that album "The Promise" could, in retrospect, be my favorite single of last year. (I know, I know, revisionist history—but it came out in October, and its charms take a while to creep up.)

Mrs. Pacific Northwest Universal 2021
By Abigail Thorpe
Photo by Kiersten Patterson Photography
Jacci Humble is a wife and mother, a Christ-follower, and a nurse by profession and artist by hobby. She's also Mrs. Pacific Northwest Universal 2021. The family moved from Jacci's home state of Kentucky in the summer of 2012 and have since fallen in love with the culture, beauty and vibrancy of Sandpoint. When she's not serving in the busy ER, Jacci spends time with her family, creating art, and advocating for those affected by infertility and chronic, debilitating reproductive diseases.
Q. How did you get involved with the Mrs. Universal pageant system?
A. This year has certainly brought some struggles for many of us, with sicknesses and battling various challenges with this pandemic, and as a working emergency department nurse I found myself right on the frontline. Working in the environment that I do, I was anxious about the virus, what it would look like for our town, how it would affect my family and myself, and ultimately how it would impact this place we all call home. I needed an outlet, a haven from days and hours spent in isolation with patients, and I needed, most of all, a light and something to look forward to. I needed a goal.
I have only competed in one pageant prior to this one several years ago and loved being able to meet other women whose goal is to empower and impact their communities for the good. I figured this would be a good goal to set for myself in the future and something I could use my free time training for that would take my mind off all that has come along mentally and otherwise with this pandemic.
Q. What has been the most rewarding or exciting part of your Mrs. Universal experience?
A. For years I battled and struggled with infertility and a chronic, debilitating reproductive disease. I have been hearing the Lord say for a few years now to "use your voice." I only this year felt like I walked into what that meant. Our voice, our truth, our history and story have influence and impact, and there is power in sharing our story with others.
This pageant system requires a platform, and what that means is that we spend our year advocating for a passion or organization and spreading awareness of that same passion with others. My platform is Infertility Awareness and Advocacy, as there is one in six women impacted by infertility, and one in 10 impacted by endometriosis. I am one in six and I am one in 10, and there is power in my story. I want to light the match that shines a light in the darkness of those that need hope and light in their own journey, and I want to be someone who shows support and inspiration to those currently in the battle. Advocating for others and standing up for them and beside them has by far been the most rewarding experience so far.
Q. What are you most passionate about, both in your free time and in your journey with Mrs. Universal?
A. Leaving a legacy of light and a trail of joy. Someone once asked me what I wanted my legacy to be, and in the words of that Thomas Rhett song "Be the Light," the lyrics "in a world full of hate be the light" came to mind. I want to leave a trail behind me of light and joy. Advocating for others and shining a light in their dark and helping them find joy beyond their circumstances has been healing for me. I am passionate about this legacy, and I want to pass it down to my children and so on. Joy is a choice and happiness is an emotion, and I am trying daily to choose joy on purpose.
Q. Are there any specific causes, charities or nonprofits that you are actively involved with?
A. I am an active board member of Life Choices pregnancy center, whose vision is to see women and families succeed no matter what the life circumstances are. I currently am working with other board members and am an auction committee member on our fall fundraiser. This year we are thinking outside the box and working on ways to raise money for the organization by doing the silent portion of the auction online and live streaming the live auction so those who wish not to come in person can still be a patron and participate.
The second nonprofit I serve on the Board of Directors for is IdaHope Families. On this board I am on the legislative committee and I edit and create, with the guidance and input of the Executive Director (Christine DeNova), the monthly newsletter. Finally, I am a member of the 101 women organization in Sandpoint. This is a group of women who gather and unite with purpose to donate to a local organization a grant of $10,000 biannually.
Q. What has been a piece of advice or experience that you've carried with you and that has impacted your life for the better?
A. Being a truth teller and having compassionate open-ended communication with others has gotten me through so many life experiences. Being a truth teller and being someone who keeps the line of conversation open with others is a compassionate tool that has really impacted the way I do my job, the way I parent, the way I am as a wife and a friend. It is embedded in my character, and I think that is the most valuable advice I can give. Be honest, in a compassionate way, and show up for others and listen.

Exec Roles Expanded For Las Vegas Market
Las Vegas Market announced that veteran gift and home décor leasing executives, Joy Jansen and Leanna John, are assuming expanded roles for select gift, lifestyle, gourmet housewares and specialty tabletop floors in Building C, beginning with the Winter 2016 Las Vegas Market, running January 24-28, 2016. The changes come following the previously-announced departure of Cassie Catania, who has left the company to pursue interests outside the industry.
Jansen will assume responsibility for floors C-ONE and C11, centering on gourmet housewares and specialty tabletop suppliers. John will maintain responsibility for floors C8 and C9 and also will assume Jasen's previous responsibility for C10, focusing on gift and lifestyle vendors. Jansen and John both will continue to report to Terence Morris, senior director of gift leasing.
"Las Vegas Market has experienced significant growth –in quality of resources and showroom occupancy – both of which can be attributed in large part to Joy and Leanna's contributions," said Dorothy Belshaw, president of Gift & Home Décor, International Market Centers. "Based on their demonstrated abilities, strong industry relationships and knowledge, we have decided to reallocate account management responsibilities and place our continued expansion into their capable hands. As the leading furniture, home decor and gift destination in the western United States, Las Vegas Market is continuing to building strong relationships with individual exhibitors and multi-line sales agencies — areas where Leanna and Joy have excelled."
Jansen has been with IMC for more than three years as gift and home leasing manager, initially responsible for expanding the Handmade temporary exhibits. During the last two years, she has been instrumental in launching the Lifestyle Collection on C10 and bringing it to 85% occupancy, signing major brands including Vera Bradley, Hester & Cook, LAFCO, Nest Fragrances and Jellycat. Her related industry experience includes work for other trade show firms for more than six years, including handling the handmade and gourmet categories for George Little Management's West Coast gift shows; and also working for Merchandise Mart Properties, where she launched the Beckman's West handcrafted show at the LA Mart, and managing the gourmet and gift sections of the California Gift Show.
John joined IMC in December 2014 as gift leasing manager, bringing a wealth of industry experience to the position. She previously worked for Atlanta-based Urban Expositions for five years, serving as group show director managing sales and day-to-day management for the California Gift Show and San Francisco International Gift Fair. Other industry sales and marketing experience includes work for a web and e-commerce development company which promoted services to gift and resort industry retailers at more than 40 trade shows annually.
Las Vegas Market is the leading furniture, home decor and gift marketplace in the western U.S., presenting 2,700+ gift, home décor and furniture resources in an unrivaled market destination. Las Vegas Market features thousands of gift, furniture and home décor lines, allowing for cross-category commerce among these industries.

Rylan Bannon
Position: 2B
Level: Double-A
Affiliate: Bowie Baysox
League: Eastern League
Born: 04/22/1996 (Age: 27)
Height: 5'10
Weight: 180
B/T: Right / Right
Acquired: 8th Rd., 2017 MLB First-Year Player Draft (LAD); Traded to BAL 7/19/2018
Prospect Spotlight
Bannon was one of the prospects Los Angeles sent to the O's for Manny Machado. The diminutive infielder packs a surprising punch at the plate, with 50-grade raw power paired with above-average strikeout rates. He isn't a true shortstop, but moves around the infield otherwise and is known as a high-energy gamer. This type of prospect bumps their head at the 3A/4A line sometimes—lacking the stick for an everyday role in the big leagues and unable to play a true center-diamond position—but Bannon's sneaky pop and defensive versatility give the upside of a useful bench piece.

Testing the Etch-a-Sketch Hypothesis: A Computational Analysis of Mitt Romney's Ideological Makeover During the 2012 Primary vs. General Elections
39 Pages Posted: 18 Sep 2013
Date Written: 2013
Downsian theory predicts that presidential candidates should shift toward the general electorate's median voter after securing their parties' nominations. Motivated by this largely untested hypothesis, we test the theory using candidates' campaign speeches as data. We develop a model to identify ideological cues in political text. After performing validation and robustness checks, we fit the model using presidential candidates' speeches from 2008 and 2012. The results show that Barack Obama, John McCain and Mitt Romney did indeed make substantively significant rhetorical shifts away from the ideological extremes after securing their parties' presidential nominations.
Keywords: Political communication, text analysis, ideology, latent variable measurement, natural language processing, U.S. presidential elections, median voter

A three-year old Jack Russell Terrier needs your help to receive major surgery after he was hit by a car.
Smashed Smartie, as Gables Dogs & Cats Home have affectionately named her, suffered a large facial wound, multiple fractures and a dislocation of her right hip in the collision with the car. The charity were asked to take on her care due to the essential, expensive surgery that she now requires.
Prior to her arrival at Gables, she was taken to the charity's contracted vets Filham Park Veterinary Clinic for life-saving care.
Due to the trauma sustained, she was unable to stand on her hind legs but was able to weight bear on her front legs.
A hip replacement was attempted but wasn't possible due to a suspected hip socket fracture, which meant her hip wouldn't remain in the socket.
Her facial wound was cleaned and stitched. To enable her to walk pain-free and salvage the function of her limb, she now needs a femoral head and neck excision.
This is a major hip operation to remove the head of the femur (the 'ball') within the hip joint.
Smashed Smartie will undergo this surgery this week, when it is hoped she will be stable enough for the procedure to take place.
Until then she will be cared for by Gables with pain relief, antibiotics and lots of crate rest, as advised by their vets.
The charity will provide aftercare and hope to be able to afford any physiotherapy that she may need to help with her recovery. They are optimistic that once she is fully recovered she will be able to walk, run and play as she did before the accident and begin the search for her forever home.
Deputy manager, Ruth Rickard said: "Smashed Smartie is such a sweet, loving girl who really deserves the best chance at a pain-free life.
"We are so grateful our vets contacted us for help, as she is only a young dog and we believe she can have a bright future.
"She is eating well, seems happy in herself and has made lots of friends here at Gables already.
"We are confident the surgery will be a success and she will go on to make a lovely companion for someone.
"We really appreciate any help our amazing supporters can give towards her treatment and care."
It is estimated it will cost Gables an additional £4,000 for the surgery and aftercare that Smashed Smartie will need. If Gables is lucky enough to raise more money than is needed it will go towards helping the other animals in their care.
Gables Dogs & Cats Home does not receive any government funding and has felt the financial strain from the Coronavirus pandemic, but they are determined to help Smashed Smartie.
They are appealing for help towards the 'Smashed Smartie's Vet Appeal'. Call 01752 331602 or visit www.virginmoneygiving.com/fund/smsmartie2021 to donate online.

Jimmy Clossin, 1961
Bob Osgood's text as it appeared in
Sets in Order / Square Dancing magazine
Jimmy Clossin
If ever there were a prototype of the traditional cowboy figure who rode miles to attend a square dance then returned home in the early morning hours – sleeping in the saddle so that he could be ready for the next day's work – that person might well be our cover man, Jimmy Clossin.
Like so many of the old-timers, Jimmy was never taught to square dance or call, he just took to it as naturally as walking or eating. Looking back to the early 1900s he recalls doing the dancing and calling as a boy.
As a young man Jimmy wrote the range along the New Mexico–Texas border and up in the Panhandle country putting famous brands on many a maverick. When he had the opportunity he traveled around the western sections of our country looking for square dances wherever he could find them and constantly adding to his knowledge of the activity.
During the years between 1910 and 1914 he made several trips into Mexico with ranchers and cattlemen. Going as far south as Guadalajara he was quite amazed to find quadrilles flourishing and he had the opportunity to dance many varieties at the ranches and towns where he stayed.
Piecing bits of information together Jimmy developed the theory that a number of our square dances came from Spain by way of Mexico. "Mexico," Jimmy wrote at one time, "was and possibly still is the most prominent in the old quadrilles, both single and double, of any place on the North American continent."
After serving in World War I Jimmy returned to his range activities and began devoting more and more time to square dancing. Finally in 1935 he became a full-time caller and teacher and traveled from San Diego to areas in the Eastern states where he helped to develop the Western style of square dancing, teaching classes, serving on institute staffs and encouraging new callers.
In 1948 he co-authored [with Carl Hertzog] West Texas Cowboy Square Dances, "a collection of Hoe-downs, Quadrilles and Chatter" gathered during his travels. The book has proven extremely valuable as a text and research manual for callers and dancers across the country.
A few years ago Jimmy and his wife Elizabeth moved from Texas to Orlando, Florida, where they have become intensely interested in providing square dancing for school children. While working with the younger generation, perhaps Jimmy will be able to perpetuate this valuable background of a dancing America. Indeed no one is better qualified through experience to start our dancers of the future in the proper direction.
To our friend, Jimmy Clossin, we respectfully tip our Stetson in admiration and dedicate this issue of Sets in Order to him.
(Sets in Order, May, 1961)

The name non-Euclidean was used by Gauss to describe a system of geometry which differs from Euclid's in its properties of parallelism. Such a system was developed independently by Bolyai in Hungary and Lobatschewsky in Russia, about 120 years ago. Another system, differing more radically from Euclid's, was suggested later by Riemann in Germany and Cayley in England. The subject was unified in 1871 by Klein, who gave the names of parabolic, hyperbolic, and elliptic to the respective systems of Euclid-Bolyai-Lobatschewsky, and Riemann-Cayley. Since then, a vast literature has accumulated.
The Fifth edition adds a new chapter, which includes a description of the two families of 'mid-lines' between two given lines, an elementary derivation of the basic formulae of spherical trigonometry and hyperbolic trigonometry, a computation of the Gaussian curvature of the elliptic and hyperbolic planes, and a proof of Schlafli's remarkable formula for the differential of the volume of a tetrahedron.
