Hackers who carried out the massive Anthem data breach may not have acted for profit.
Officials have probed whether the Anthem attack and similar "phishing" operations were used to procure personal information that could eventually be used as leverage to gain intelligence, the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg reported. Some evidence gathered points to Chinese state-sponsored hackers, they wrote, citing people familiar with the probe.

Will The Youth Vote Turn-Out?
In the U.S. this past November, there wasn't a surge in youth voting, though there was a decisive shift towards Obama among those who did turn out to vote.
Today the Washington Post reports on an expected surge in the youth vote in India after the Mumbai attacks. Key graph:
In past elections, India's middle-class youths blew off voting as a waste of time. The country's often-Kafkaesque bureaucracy exasperated them, as did politicians' well-earned reputations for corruption and criminal behavior. But now, the same high-tech tools and toys of youth culture that help teenagers engage with one another are being used to expose the misdeeds of political leaders. In the past, police harassed young people when they massed for street demonstrations, but Indian youths now gather on Facebook or organize over text messaging, a powerful medium in India, where 385 million people own cellphones, according to the Cellular Operators Association of India.

Progress Slows in Special Education
Washington--By 1978, three years after the enactment of P.L. 94-142, the Education for All Handicapped Children Act, school officials had successfully adopted most of the law's procedural safeguards, according to a federally-supported study of several school districts over a period of four years.
But by 1980, the report states, the pace of the expansion of special-education programs and services "slowed dramatically," as the school systems "struggled to maintain the status quo with fewer financial resources."
"A lack of resources in the last year or two has inhibited further progress in the development of high-quality, comprehensive special-education programs and services," contends the report, "Local Implementation of P.L. 94-142: Final Report of a Longitudinal Study."
"Thus, the effect of the law as an impetus to action is decreasing as fiscal restraints begin to dominate," the report notes.
Conducted by sri International, a California-based research organization, the study analyzes the results of interviews and on-site visits with officials from 22 school districts in nine states. The research covered the period from 1978 to 1982.
The final report is a compilation of findings from each year of the researchers' efforts. The four-year study was sponsored by the Education Department's office of special-education programs.
When the law was enacted in 1975, local school systems channeled their efforts into complying with the procedural provisions, such as the evaluation and individual-education-program requirements. "Once these procedures were put in place, they quickly became a familiar and routine part of special education," the researchers noted.
The major problem in this area, according to the researchers, was the large number of referrals. One district, they found, by 1980 had a backlog of 3,000 referrals.
Overall, the researchers suggest, the school systems studied had much greater difficulty meeting requirements under the related-services provision as their financial conditions worsened.
In the 1981-82 school year, the researchers found the "first evidence" of reductions in recently expanded special-education programs in addition to cuts in related services.
In rural areas, school officials had difficulties recruiting and retaining special-education staff members, and a few of the school systems failed to meet the full intent of the law, according to the researchers, because there was little parental pressure.
The researchers also found that school officials' placement decisions--based on the "least restrictive environment" provision of the law--rarely reflected the best choice available to them from a range of options.
The researchers also reported that little attention was given to inservice training for teachers despite a general consensus that training was important. "The fiscal restraints that interrupted expansion in programs and services during the past two years probably also inhibited the expansion of training," the researchers explained in the report.
Nevertheless, as a result of the school systems' incorporation of the law's provisions, and despite the financial problems, more handicapped children have been identified and helped than would have been without the federal law, according to the report.
That finding is supported in another report, "The Rights of Handicapped Students," prepared by the Law and Education Center of the Education Commission of the States (ecs).
The report notes that public schools routinely excluded handicapped children 10 years ago. Now, more than 4 million handicapped students receive special-education services.
In general, the sri researchers also found that school principals and regular teachers have become more aware of special education and more accepting of handicapped children.
"Although various factors interacted in unique ways in each site, we investigated the relative importance of P.L. 94-142, compared with other factors, in causing change in special education over the past four years," the researchers explained.
Law Enhanced Change
They concluded that in the absence of the handicapped-education law, other factors such as school characteristics, court suits, and state regulations would have been less effective in bringing about changes. The law enhanced change, they said, "largely because of the legitimacy it gave educators and parents of handicapped children (and in many cases, because of the money associated with it)."
The researchers argue that instead of being the catalyst it once was, the law is now becoming more important as a "tool" for holding on to the gains that have been made in serving handicapped children.
Copies of the report can be obtained at a cost of $13 from the Social Sciences Center, s.r.i. International, 333 Ravenswood Ave., Menlo Park, Calif. 94025.

With the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led Centre completing three years of governance, the initiatives implemented and overall performance have come under the scanner several times, which, according to the former, is said to be a key to strengthening democracy.
Addressing the nation in the 32nd episode of his radio programme ' Mann ki Baat' earlier today, the Prime Minister was of the opinion that constructive criticism strengthens democracy, adding that for an aware and awakened nation, this churning is very important.
"There have been many surveys and several opinion polls. I see this entire process as a very healthy sign. The works done during these years were tested on every touch stone. It was analysed by every segment of society. This is a great process in democracy. I firmly believe that governments must be accountable in democracy and the public at large must be provided with report card of works done," he said.
Appreciating the intent behind the detailed analysis, Prime Minister Modi said it is important for flaws to be highlighted so that they can be rectified as and when necessary.
"Whether something is good, little less effective or bad, whatever it is, one has to learn from it and move ahead in life putting the learning from it into practice," he said.
Over the past fortnight, an audit and assessment of the performance of the present government in the last three years has garnered widespread attention across various media platforms.
While the opposition has openly criticised the Centre on their failures, some were of the opinion that India is seeing a fruitful phase under the governance of Prime Minister Modi. (ANI)

Common perceptions specially among Twitter's most vocal fans are that the NHL's Department of Player Safety struggles with inconsistency that stars get preferential treatment that there is no rhyme or reason to the league's decision making. That couldn't be further from the truth however. During the 2014-15 season I visited the NHL DOPS war room and learned everything I could about how suspensions happen. I've spent the next couple years further brushing up on the subject and I've realized the war between the fans and the DOPS stems primarily from one problem: lack of education.
Checking is one of the most demanding skills in hockey and also one of the most overlooked by players coaches and fans. It is probably the least glamorous of all skills but one of the most important when it comes to defensive team play. Checking is a skill designed to aid in the recovery and possession of the puck. It should not be used to intimidate or injure an opponent.
Enthusiasm is contagious. If you find it hard to drag yourself into the rink and onto the ice for practice how can you expect your players to be engaged and motivated? We have a few tricks to keep everyone excited about practice. Sometimes we'll pump music over the PA system to get players moving. Or we'll start practice with a small area game to get the competitive juices flowing.

(Adds details, context)
By Bruno Federowski
BRASILIA, Jan 26 (Reuters) - Brazil's current account deficit shrank in 2017 to a decade low, in a boost to the nation's recovery from the deepest recession in three decades.
The current account deficit tightened nearly 60 percent from 2016 to $9.762 billion, central bank data showed on Friday, capped by a $4.327 billion December deficit.
Economists polled by Reuters had expected a $4.050 billion deficit last month, according to the median forecast in a Reuters poll.
Policymakers have said last year's solid performance from Brazil's external accounts gave a major boost to economic growth.
Foreign direct investments in Brazil, however, fell 10 percent to $70.332 billion last year, their lowest since 2013, mostly due to a decline in transfers between different units of the same company.
This suggests multinational companies may be reluctant to invest in new projects in Brazil ahead of the 2018 elections, the most wide-open and unpredictable in decades.
Still, purchases of stakes in Brazilian companies by foreigners rose to a five-year high, tracking a recovery in overall merger and acquisition activity last year.
Conglomerates under pressure from corruption probes and excessive debt were forced to sell major assets last year, lifting the value of Brazilian M&A by 33 percent.
Bankers and lawyers told Reuters this month that a rebounding economy and record-low interest rates should continue to support M&A in 2018. (Reporting by Bruno Federowski; Editing by Lisa Von Ahn)

How to get a Mortgage in Spain
In some areas of Spain, such as Mallorca for example, it's almost impossible these days to rent long-term, at least not at a reasonable rental rate. It makes sense, given that Spanish property prices are still comparatively low, to buy a holiday home. However, Spain has been plagued by manifold property scandals, and it's therefore imperative to do as much research as possible before taking the decision to buy. Make sure you appoint a good, reputable lawyer, never leave anything that could become costly in the hands of developers or estate agents, and above all, ensure that every document you sign is translated, if you're not fluent in Spanish!
Unless you have already sold your primary residence and freed up a large amount of cash – or have won the lottery – you are likely to be looking to buy with a mortgage. Since Spain encourages foreign investment, non-residents can obtain a mortgage for residential property in Spain, but there are not as many of such mortgage products open to non-residents as there are for residents, and some restrictions apply.
In principal, getting a mortgage is like this:
Find out how much you can borrow – a deposit of up to 30% is typical, but your mortgage adviser can help you find the right type of mortgage for the deposit you have.
You must provide the requested documentation to apply for your Spanish mortgage.
The bank will usually give usually if you have the required deposit and can prove you can service the mortgage payments thereafter for the required length of the mortgage.
You must apply for your NIE number at the local immigration office, usually part of a designated police station. It is a required Spanish identification number.
You sign all the pre-contractual documents requested by the bank, for example Banco de España (Bank of Spain), to confirm that you understand and agree to all the conditions. Watch out for Spanish small print, which often hides interest rate hikes in vaguely worded sub-clauses!
You sign the mortgage deeds at the notary along with the house purchase deeds.
You move into your dream holiday or retirement home!
Because there are various restrictions to the type of mortgages non-residents can obtain, it is usually best to determine beforehand what your most likely residential status will be, before choosing a product. Are you likely to retire soon or relocate for work purposes and become a permanent resident? This may well open up a better range of mortgage options.
Lenders view a second mortgage as far more risky than the mortgage you may have on your primary residence. This means such mortgages are offered at worse interest rate ranges than homes where you will live all year round. Lenders assume that anyone in danger of defaulting on payments, will do so on a holiday home rather than their main home. For this reason, lenders in Spain are more likely to look for a 30 to 40 per cent deposit, before they will allow your mortgage application to go forward. Some banks in Spain, however, allow 80 per cent mortgages, so you will only need a 20 per cent deposit in that case.
On top of that come costs, which include legal costs for your notary and any translator you might need, and various mortgage fees and taxes. This can all mount up quickly, so it is best to allow for a further 12 to 15 per cent of the purchase price to pay for purchase costs.
How do Spanish Lenders assess your creditworthiness?
This can vary from lender to lender, but most Spanish banks will ask you to provide a list of all your monthly outgoings (you will need to provide proof of this, such as bank statements for the previous three to six months before applying for example), and will take into account any existing loan repayments you are already making. This will show them whether or not you can still afford to take on more debt.
Lenders will use an affordability ratio based on your net income per annum after tax, and will determine if your new debt exceeds 30 to 35 per cent of your net earnings; if so, you will be turned down, but if you stay within that margin, you should see your application go forward. You will typically be required to complete a personal balance sheet to demonstrate your existing financial arrangements, and to show documents that prove how much you earn and how much you spend per month.
Most Spanish mortgages are arranged on a tracker basis, in line with the European Central Bank's lending rates, the Euribor. Lenders offer mortgages at a margin above the Euribor rate, such as Euribor plus one per cent. Here it is important to check the mortgage offer fine print, for Spanish lenders have been slow to pass on any savings to customers, when the Euribor goes down, but very quick to apply increases. At the time of writing, the average interest rates offered in Spain stand at around 4.16 per cent. You should also take into account any exchange rate fluctuations – if you are paid your salary in Sterling, which is weaker than the Euro at present, this will impact on the monthly outgoings for your loan.
Costs of arranging mortgages may also be different to the way lenders handle mortgages in your own country. Expect to pay mortgage deed duty at around 1.8 per cent of the loan, and bank fees typically set at 1 to 1.5 per cent of the mortgage amount. Every single document related to your mortgage must be signed off at the notary office, which means you have to allow a further 0.5 per cent of the loan value to pay for the notary service.
In addition, you must pay a valuation fee, a broker fee, if you're using a broker to arrange your Spanish mortgage, and 10 per cent VAT, if you have chosen to purchase a brand new property. If you are buying a second-hand property, then a sales tax of between 5 and 10 percent of the overall value of the property becomes payable upon completion. The rateable or taxable value of your property varies from type of property and location, and in some parts of Spain there are also local charges to pay. It is incredibly important to hire a reputable, experienced solicitor, preferably a law office that is able to handle all work in two languages, your own and Spanish, so you are not experiencing endless delays waiting for documents to be translated.
Whether you go direct or use a broker is usually down to personal choice. However, there are quite a few fraudsters around who will charge an upfront fee – and never bother to arrange your mortgage with the lender. Before appointing somebody, ask for advice from neighbours, friends or colleagues.
Brokers can be very useful because many Spanish lenders do not offer set mortgage terms, but tend to work on a negotiated, individual basis client by client. Therefore, having someone working for you who speaks Spanish fluently and knows the system inside out can work out very much in your favour. Look out for mortgage brokers who provide you with an initial free, no obligation, consultation, such as SPF or IMS. They will explain their services to you, if you're not sure which route to take.
It will, of course, cost more to use a broker, about 0.5 to 1 per cent of the overall property value in fact. But if the broker can arrange for a good deal for you, you will be recouping this cost over time.
Unless you are fluent in written and spoken Spanish and understand legal jargon, it is not advisable to go direct – Spanish mortgages are legally binding, and thus any mistakes or misunderstanding can be very costly indeed. Look at quite a few major Spanish bank websites to compare rates (use Google Translate, if the sites are only Spanish-spoken) and also check on the nearest Spanish consulate or embassy websites for links to English-language portals that deal with recommended notary or translation services in the area you wish to buy in. Check out websites run by expats – they can be invaluable for advice on who to avoid and who to trust with regard to brokers and estate agents.
If the Spanish lender has a branch in your own country, even better, as you may be able to arrange a mortgage through them for your property in Spain. Abanca for example have an office in London, and Santander, one of the largest mortgage providers in Spain, may also be able to put British buyers in touch with their relevant banking counterpart in Spain. Their website also has a wide range of mortgage products on offer, including tracker, combination deals and fixed rate deals, and you can use their nifty mortgage calculator to estimate the amount you may be able to borrow and find out if you're eligible on the site, too.
All Spanish lenders must be authorised by the Bank of Spain and are subject to the Bank's supervision. If you're using the Bank of Spain (Banco de España), you will have access to banking staff trained to deal with overseas buyers. They will be able to guide you through the home-buying purchase in your own language – but don't forget, they are not on your side money-wise, but want to get the best deal for their bank.
The maximum length of a mortgage term you can get is 25 years and the borrows age at the end of the loan period must not exceed 75 years. The monthly outgoings you present for mortgage eligibility must include home insurance costs, as this is mandatory by Spanish law. Home valuation fees charged should not exceed 500 euros.

A world with spy photographers would mean a never-ending game between a cat and a mouse. We too are considered guilty about this Ford Strategy as charged whenever talking about taking spy shots of the New Mustang 2015 –we did that too as much as we could. Mustang development test mules have been documented by our spy photographers through taking snaps for its track and road actions.
However, Ford has developed a camo package for test mules with heavily padded foam and back vinyl in order to address the cat and mouse game with photographers. And to make sure that total access cut off from those annoying paparazzi is implemented, camouflage engineer was deployed. At this moment in time however, that Ford has fully revealed the car, they too released a video explanation how they work on getting rid of spy photographers at any cost.
Finally, here you can see all the plans for Ford careers that will change your mind about this company! Check out this link!

There is growing investor interest in the business risks and opportunities associated with farm animal welfare. However, investors' ability to make robust comparisons between companies or to use farm animal welfare-related performance in their investment decisions is hampered by a lack of robust reporting by companies and a general absence of tools that enable investors to compare different companies on a consistent basis. The Business Benchmark on Farm Animal Welfare is designed to address these challenges.
As the first global measure of company performance on animal welfare, the Business Benchmark has been specifically designed to support investors in their engagement with companies, and to help investors to integrate farm animal welfare into their investment research and decision-making.
The BBFAW has become the primary tool for investors seeking to evaluate the relative performance of food companies on farm animal welfare management and disclosure.

Inauguration poet at St. Andrews University Thursday
Laurinburg, N.C. - Inauguration poet Richard Blanco returns to the St. Andrews University Writers' Forum Thursday.
The Forum, which is free and open to the public, will be held in Belk Main Lounge beginning at 8 p.m.
According to inaugural committee spokeswoman Addie Whisenant, Blanco was personally selected by President Barack Obama because his "deeply personal poems are rooted in the idea of what it means to be an American."
Blanco was a groundbreaking selection for the inauguration poet, as he became the first immigrant, first Hispanic, first openly gay and youngest to answer the call.
Blanco's first book of poetry, City of a Hundred Fires, received the Agnes Starrett Poetry Prize from the University of Pittsburgh Press. His second book, Directions to the Beach of the Dead, won the Beyond the Margins Award from the PEN American Center. A third collection, Looking for The Gulf Motel, was published in 2012.
His poems have appeared in top literary journals and he has been featured on National Public Radio's All Things considered, Blanco is the recipient of two Florida Artist Fellowships, a Residency Fellowship from the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts and is a John Ciardi Fellow of the Bread Loaf Writers Conference.
"Blanco's poems sound like so many people in this country," said Don Share, senior editor of Poetry Magazine. "He works in Spanish and English, a mixture that is our native language, and he makes it sound like real poetry. This is poetry that speaks for and from a great number of Americans. He gives a voice to the kinds of experience that people undergo every single day."

Summer begins in 19 days and a lot comes with it. Mount Trashmore Park, off of Edwin Drive and Holland Road, becomes extremely active. Ice Cream trucks become as prominent as birds chirping in the morning. Thankfully you live in an apartment community where you don't have to begin mowing your lawn. Let's not forget the kids are out of school for summer vacation and the college students that come back home with the end of the spring semester. They're not the only ones coming back to Virginia Beach, so are tourists. If you're familiar with the area you'll begin to see people from all over vacationing here. For those who love amusement parks, check out Busch Gardens and Water Country USA, in Williamsburg, which are now open. If those seem too far, there's Ocean Breeze Waterpark next to Motorworld, and down the street from Adventure Park, off of General Booth Boulevard in Virginia Beach.
Did we mention the Veterans United Home Loans Ampitheater (boy that's a mouthful) formerly known as Farm Bureau Live The ampitheater is where all the concerts play across the summer (and there are a ton). Of course there's First Landing State Park if you want to enjoy nature and hike a little.This area get's pretty humid but you'll love that we live so close to the Atlantic Ocean. The weather becomes warm enough to finally enjoy the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. There's so much to do at the beach from riding beach cruisers along the boardwalk to enjoying the night life out there. Summer begins in 19 days and we can't wait!

What Should We Tell Our Kids? Be Tomorrow's Leaders, Today
In the wake of this divisive election, its often ugly and frightening rhetoric, and its widely unexpected result, parents and teachers are struggling with what to say to students and kids. Regardless of your political beliefs, the current state of discourse in our nation, both online and off, is troubling. This is a challenge all Americans face. There are so many reactions—and it's parents' job to help kids make sense of it all.
As parents, teachers, and advocates for kids, we are empowered to take positive action. We can be the antidote to a divisive and ugly media environment by raising a generation of kids who value character, by being a positive role model, and by standing up for others when we see an injustice.
So, how do we support kids through this stunning election and the transition that follows?
MORE: Some Teens Care About Elections
First: Tell them they will be OK. Talk to your kids and students and offer them reassurance. Let them know that our country has gone through many divisive and challenging moments. We have a strong democratic system that is designed to withstand changes in power and protect the rights of all people.
Second: Show them how to channel emotion into action. This has been a dramatic and polarizing election process, and children likely have heard all manner of rumors about what the results mean for them and their friends. That kind of energy can be scary. Help children and students find a cause that matters to them, to get out and get to know their communities, and to direct that energy into positive action. Get involved and help shape your own future.
We may have differences of opinion. But it's imperative that we teach kids how to have differences of opinion, how to disagree but still work together, and how to stand together as one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
As one of the nation's leading voices on child advocacy issues, including education, media literacy, cyberbullying and digital citizenship, we can't ignore the negative discourse and division that has spread throughout this election. This includes President-elect Donald Trump's history of engaging in negative behavior, online and off. And it includes the behavior and speech of many politicians, citizens on all sides of the political spectrum, children and adults, online and off.
We should insist that all of our elected leaders rise to a level of discourse appropriate to their office. As parents, as teachers, as students, as citizens of the United States, we also have a duty and responsibility ourselves to rise above discourse that demeans, bullies, or spreads hate.
What we know today, what was true last month and will be next year, is that in our homes and classrooms, we are shaping tomorrow's leaders. And each of us has a role to play in that work.
MORE: How to Develop Leadership Skills
Common Sense Tips for Talking to Kids
Kids of all ages will be going through a range of emotions, and it's important to acknowledge how kids are feeling. They likely will have heard many opinions from the media, at home, or in school. Consider your own reactions since kids will take your lead. It's OK to show kids that you're sad or excited, but try to stay calm and rational.
For kids age 3–6:
Assure kids that they are safe. However your family or school community feels about the election results, kids are sure to notice the stress of parents and teachers around them. Smile, hug, and spend time with them.
Keep the news off and out of sight. Kids younger than about 7 can't understand the larger implications of national news. The rhetoric and some of the images can be more upsetting than informative.
Be together. However you feel about the election results, being together as a family, classroom or community feels good and is exactly what little kids need during stressful events.
Use age-appropriate language. Try, "Sometimes grown-ups are so silly. They don't always agree with each other, but they can still be friends. Let's read some books about being friends!"
Take action. Draw a picture of one of the candidates. Write a letter to an elected official. Read books about brave leaders and other role models.
For kids age 7–12:
Acknowledge their feelings. They might be anxious or fearful. They could be excited or relieved. However they feel—even if it's different from how you're feeling—it's important that they feel comfortable expressing it. Offer appropriate outlets for expression, from exercise to art.
Help them with conflict. Kids may have friends or family members who are reacting differently to the election. Help them figure out how to express disagreement respectfully and while avoiding name-calling, disrespectful language and prejudice.
Teach media literacy. Find age-appropriate news sources. Discuss how mainstream media has covered the election and the aftermath. You might explain how news organizations fight for viewers and the business reasons behind it. Help kids distinguish fact from fiction.
Focus on the positive. If kids aren't happy with the presidential election result, turn their attention to some of the state and local results they might feel better about.
Use age-appropriate language. Try, "Wow, that was a crazy election! I'm feeling [disappointed/excited/shocked/surprised]. I'm so happy that we have a [family/classroom/school/community] that is supportive and that treats people fairly and kindly. Let's think of what we can do to keep it that way!"
Take action. However they feel about the election, use the momentum of the campaigns to inspire them to get involved in their communities. Find places to volunteer as a family or causes to unite around.
For teens 13 and up:
Check in. Many teens will have absorbed the news independently from you, so talking to them can offer great insights into their developing politics and their senses of justice and morality. Take the opportunity to throw your own insights into the mix (just don't dismiss theirs, since that will shut down the conversation immediately).
Let teens express themselves. Many teens will feel passionately about the election and may feel the result very personally. They'll also probably be aware that their own lives could be affected by what comes next. Try to address their concerns and ideas without minimizing them.
Encourage breaks from media. It's hard for social media users to step away in the midst of major news events -- especially when there's a lot of emotion being expressed. But it's an important part of taking care of ourselves to step back, connect with each other face-to-face, and even relieve some of the pressure with nonpolitical media -- funny movies, books, games, and so on. (And don't forget to do this yourself!)
Teach kids to be upstanders. Help them understand the responsibility to speak up when they see something that isn't right. The tone of the election was incredibly negative, and between the candidates and their supporters, we saw bullying, name-calling, and lots of ugly language. Encourage them to rise above the negativity and be positive, kind, and respectful.
Use age-appropriate language. Try, "OK, now that the election's over, what can we do to make the world a better place? Let's make a plan for our [family/classroom/community] to take action."
Take action. Help teens pursue causes they're passionate about. Support them by helping with transportation and resources and talking through any issues that arise. Also, when they're old enough, help them register to vote.

George Soros fled to England from Hungary in the year 1947. In England, he joined an economics school in London for studies and graduated as an economist in 1952. He later went to the United States of America and worked for three firms in New York investment companies in 1973. George then decided to start his venture and founded the great Soros Management Hedge Fund, which was later named as the Quantum fund. He has managed his fruitful and aggressive hedge fund for two decades.
Soros began his philanthropic efforts in 1979 by offering study scholarships to South Africans. He provided Xerox machines to copy banned texts in the year 1980 and also helped in undermining communism in the Eastern bloc as well as supporting cultural exchanges. His philanthropic foundations called Open Society Foundation have supported philanthropy in Africa, Asia, and the United States. Soros also created the University of Central Europe after the fall of the great Berlin wall to promote thinking.
In the 1980s, Soros gave up the day to day management of the hedge fund and by then he was one of the wealthiest people on earth and started his safe journey through his Open Source organization. In the recent years, Soros has indulged in major political activism campaigns all over the United States. He has widely lectured and written on the United Sates role in education, world affairs, and political freedom. Soros was offered an honorary degree from the University of Oxford.
His Open Source organization network partners and is now running projects in more than 100 nations in the entire world. George Soros is its founder and chairperson. His main idea is to realize a society that has a regime that is accountable to the people, where the rights of people are respected, and the truth about factors affecting the people is always available. This makes the philanthropic organization to be one of the biggest in the entire universe.
Soro's Wake-up Call to Europe
European leaders are not aware of the present challenge they are facing from Russia. Soros attributes this mainly to one fact that the Eurozone and the European Union lost their way after the financial crisis in 2008.
A lot of popular resentment has arisen from the fiscal rules that prevail currently in Europe. The latest elections have seen 30% of anti-Europe parties capture the European parliamentary seats. Russia now presents an alternative that imposes a challenge to the principles and values on which the European Union was founded originally. It is based on the force that manifests itself in aggression abroad and repression at home. The US and Europe are determined to avoid any direct military confrontation with Russia for its reasons. It is easy to foresee what lies ahead.
Soros' Democratic Fight In Voting Right Cases
The single liberal benefactor; the philanthropist George Soros is mostly paying for the democratic legal arguments against restrictive laws of voting enacted in the recent years by the Republican-controlled state governments.
Soros has agreed to put up $5 million dollars into the lawsuit effort. He is hoping to remove the restrictions on voters access that they say could otherwise result in a close voting.

The Secret , but put it off because I felt it did not coincide with my beliefs as a believer. Once I decided to watch it, it made sense to me and I started listening to everything I could find on the law of attraction. The more I listened the more scripture references I heard it was then I realized this is the life we were created to live.
There are so many references in the Bible to the law of attraction, but they have never been pointed out to us the way it is meant to. We are all gods containing the same power of our Heavenly Father. Think about if we are created by Him than He is in us, a part of us, encompassed in our DNA. After all if you have an apple pie you know what it is going to taste like because you know where it came from. Are we really so different that our Creator is not within our DNA? No, we just have never been taught that this is the truth of our being. I will now only offer various Bible verses and from there you can decide if you are ready for this truth or will continue to lead a mediocre life.

Beauty Smoothie: Drink to Better Skin!
Beauty Smoothie: Drink to Better Skin!
I learned to make smoothies that make your skin glow from the famous medicine man healer David Jubb owner of Jubbs Longevity in NYC. All the top models in NYC would wait in line to get their daily fill of this concoction.
This smoothie not only tastes delicious – it makes you look delicious because of a few of my favorite skin enhancing supplements, one of which is methylsulfonylmethane, or MSM, a natural sulfate that has been shown to improve flexibility, reduce inflammation and increase elasticity of the skin.
I also add tocotrienols part of the vitamin E family, an antioxidant that reduce free radicals in the blood stream, which may aid in blocking skin and breast cancer.
Beauty Smoothie
Makes 1 serving
2 cups brazil nut or almond milk (see recipe a nut milk recipe, or buy almond milk at a health food store)
1 teaspoon tocotrienols
1 teaspoon flax oil
1 teaspoon lecithin granules (lecithin is great for liver and cell function, healthy hair and skin, as well as fat metabolism)
1 tsp green powder
1 pinch of Himalayan or Celtic sea salt
1/8 teaspoon MSM (or one capsule, opened up)
1 cup of your favorite berry (fresh is preferable, but frozen can work if the season isn't right.
Pinch of stevia or 2 teaspoons raw honey
Directions: Add all the ingredients to your blender and mix until smooth. Shake well before drinking.
Note: If you're allergic to bee stings, omit the raw honey and bee pollen.
Almond milk (if you choose to make your own):
I cup almonds or Brazil nuts soaked over night
Filtered water 5 C
Celtic sea salt 1 pinch
Optional Agave nectar 1 Tsp or
Raw honey 1 Tsp or
Stevia drops 2 drops
1. Blend Almonds, H2O and Sea salt. Blend for 1 minute or untill you no longer hear the nuts mixing around.
2. Strain the milk through a fine sieve or nut bag or cheese cloth fabric (like milking a beautiful cow) you may also use a clean stocking, cut it off from below the knee line, rinse well then strain the milk)..
3. Put the milk back in the blender add your choice of sweetener and blend. Taste, adjust and enjoy.
Note: Be mindful with your use of stevia drops as they can over power a recipe. Very few go a long way. Stevia is a natural sweetener that actually lowers the blood sugar level.

This brief was surprisingly challenging. The first part of this competition was to choose who we wanted to collaborate with. This was quite difficult as I don't know many people from animation or illustration, However the tasks set really helped me with this. I chose to work with an animator and an illustrator. I thought that both of the specialisms would be very helpful with this process as I'm not particularly talented with illustration or animation. I think covering all three specialisms available in this project has definitely benefited our our creative outcome.
A strength of this project was our time management, as we all worked very well together and apart. I made myself a timescale in which to have the work done. This was actually made very difficult to stick to, as I was heavily relying on the other contributors of this group. I believe another strength of this project to be my own personal research, as I found it really helped me when creating my own designs, for example, looking into websites that are out there in current day.
A weakness of this project was the fact that we were all on different specialisms. This made it very difficult to meet up as our timetables are very different. I think completing this project would've been a lot easier if we were on the same timetable, as we would've had designated time for completing this brief together instead of apart.
Overall, I think this project went really smoothly. We all had our work completed for the final deadline and the work across each platform is consistent and to a high standard. If I were to participate in this brief again, I would start working on it earlier and set strict timetables in which to meet up, as we met up very little and generally just discussed our process and current projects over social media. This was helpful however, but it could've helped to discuss the work in person and brainstorm further ideas.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the water, yeast and sugar; stir to dissolve the sugar and yeast. Allow the yeast to bloom in the bowl, forming bubbles or a foam on the surface of the water. Add the flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt and 3 tablespoons of the olive oil to the bowl and mount onto the mixer. Use a dough hook attachment to mix the flour and liquid on low speed until a dough is formed. Once the dough is formed, raise the speed to medium and beat the dough for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the dough from the bowl and place in a lightly greased bowl covered with a damp kitchen towel (or plastic wrap), to proof until doubled in size, about 2 hours.
While the dough is proofing, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a 10-inch saute pan and once hot, add the fennel, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper to the pan and saute until lightly caramelized, about 3 minutes. Remove the fennel from the pan and set aside until ready to use.
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
Punch the dough down and place on a lightly oiled 9 1/2 by 13-inch sheet pan. Cover with a damp kitchen towel or plastic wrap and allow to double in size again, about 30 to 45 minutes. Use your hands to flatten the dough so that it fits across the entire pan. Spread the sauteed fennel across the surface of the dough, followed by the olives, pecorino, and rosemary. Drizzle the remaining 6 tablespoons of the olive oil over top the dough and place in the hot oven. Bake until golden brown, about 15 to 17 minutes. Rotate the focaccia halfway through the cook time to ensure even browning.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting and serving.

Would you accept that USA/Great Britain is crippled by the Great Powers?
Yet that is what happened in Hungary June 4, 1920.
Since then, Hungary is still waiting the legal recognition from the international community, for the appeasement of the Hungarian people. In the hope that moral recognition, the National Assotiation Trianon has published the following statement:
June 4, 1920 is a day of mourning: the Hungarian people were crucified and dismembered. For the last 15 years, the Trianon Association commemorates this event every year. But what happened on the 4th of June in 1920? As historical precedent, Hungary, which was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, was driven in the First World War, against of her will . After her defeat, the great powers designated the Hungarians as responsible for the war. As a result, the conclusion of the Treaty of Versailles, in the Trianon palace, Hungary was dismembered by the Great Powers and the new boundaries were determined in an unfair way. One-third of its population was left outside its borders. 68% of the territories were taken from her, she could keep only 32%! The Hungarian people could never accept this unjust and unprecedented decision of its kind. Moreover, the "Treaty of Peace" of Versailles was the beginning of international tensions, which contributed to a considerable extent to the start of the Second World War and, later, the Balkan conflicts. This tension still exists today. The Trianon case still remains unresolved.
The Hungarian nation was not disrupted by the new frontiers. Its foundation and essence is the common language, culture and the historical tradition. And also the fact, that the Hungarians who are beyond the new borders, live in their ancestral homeland.
2010 is the 90th anniversary of the Treaty of Trianon. Many celebrations were held in the dismembered country, as beyond the borders. Today, Hungary is part of the European Union where the borders are only symbolic, and national solidarity is provided by the historical values.
The history of Trianon is not only of Hungarian interest, it is a historic event that concerns all of Europe. The European Union can not ignore the "Trianon syndrome" because it must give the Hungarians the necessary moral recognition leading to reconciliation. It is not a border revision, which currently would only increase international tension, but the recognition and acceptance of the organic unity of Hungarians living on both sides of the borders. The Hungarian Government has made the most important legal step when on 26 of May in 2010, voted the law on dual citizenship, which allows to recognize the affiliation of Hungarians living beyond the borders, as a united, same nation. This law also allows Hungarians expatriated to apply for naturalization. It also need to be known, that regarding the nationality of the people, Hungary now is bordered by itself.

It is often said that a movie is written three times:
once, when the screenwriter commits the story to paper; again, when
the director and actors commit the story to film; and finally, when
the editor constructs the story in time. This crucial final telling
of the storythe editingis no less important than the
other two, but is often the least discussed. As an independent moviemaker,
I edited my own first feature film. As I prepare to direct my second
feature, one in which I will be working with an editor, I thought
it would be instructive to talk to some of the masters of the craft.
MM afforded me the opportunity to pick the brains of three renowned
Academy Award-winning editors: Walter Murch (Oscar winner for The
English Patient and Apocalypse Now); Anne Coates (Oscar
winner for Lawrence of Arabia and editor of over 50 films);
and Glenn Farr (Oscar winner for The Right Stuff).
The following is a distillation of their comments and observations, with a special focus on the collaborative relationship between editor and director:
Walter Murch: An editor needs to approach a
project just the way an actor does, which is to say, Is this
material something that resonates within me? And, at the same
time, Is this material going to draw something out of me that
I havent explored before? Whenever Im thinking
about taking a job, I read the script and then type six to 10 pages
of notes, and I give them to the director. Writing these notes is
a kind of declaration of collaboration. If the director is allergic
to that, were probably better off not working together.
Anne Coates: I first read a script as
an audience member. I dont take notes, I just read it and
enjoy itor not enjoy it. But you have to be careful. When
I read the first few pages of The Elephant Man I thought,
I cant work on this! It would be too upsetting.
But by the time I had read to the end of the script, I was in tears
and thought, I must cut this movie.
Glenn Farr: Before I decide to do a picture,
I time the script. By doing this, I have a good idea whats
going to be cut out before even seeing a shot. Then I have to decide
how free I can be in terms of offering that perspective to the director.
Then I evaluate what I feel about the director and how serious the
person is. I look at as many of their films as possible. I have
worked with first-time directors, and there you can guide their
path and be very helpful.
Walter Murch: The reasons for editing
while youre shooting are twofold. One is simply to save time.
If you have a fully edited version of the film two weeks after the
end of shooting, youve saved that many months of assembly.
The other is to discover any problems that there might be in the
coverageor some opportunities that might occur to you once
youve put the stuff together, things that might not occur
to anyone else.
Anne Coates: On the rare occasion when
the director has you in on rehearsals, I love it. Then Im
really able to glean what the director is aiming for. I also spend
a lot of time on the floor watching the shooting, because I think
you learn a lot about what the directors thinking by watching
him direct and how he changes the artists performances.
Glenn Farr: I like to become very familiar
with the director of photography: I want to know how hes going
to approach the piece; if there will be multiple cameras, stacked
cameras; what kind of lenses hell be using. I make notes.
I soak it in. That helps me understand how these scenes are going
to be covered.
Watching Dailies
Walter Murch: During dailies I will have a
laptop with the screen dimmed and I just type in the dark, trying
to capture what Im feeling as Im seeing these issues/45/images
for the first time. Months on down the road I may forget the initial
effect of something, so I write those things down because it cements
those ideas in my mind in a way that just sitting there doesntand
I then can read them at any point in the editing process. I then
create my own storyboards by selecting one to seven representative
frames from every set-up, what I call key moment frames.
I have them printed up and mounted on boards. Then, when Im
editing the scene, I have these put on the wall where I work. Its
a storyboard in reverse. Its not what you intended, its
what you got.
Anne Coates: Like my script, I sit back and
enjoy the dailies and get the impact from them: the emotions, the
storytelling and the acting. But I dont take notes; I really
just sit and enjoy them. Then I get to know the material very well.
I run it several times, and I look at the script, if it bears any
relationship to the scenewhich sometimes it doesnt.
Glenn Farr: I try to watch the dailies with
the director. I generally like my assistant to take notes. The assistant
sits in front of us and can hear what the directors saying.
Even one word that a director says about a scene can make all the
difference in the world. It may just be a word like nervous
or I like the take where the characters more apprehensive.
It may be about just one performance in one take, and that helps
me understand what the directors going for.
Walter Murch: The directors method
of working with the editor should be very similar to the way the
director works with actors. In general, you dont give line
readings to actors. Its similar with editors. With some exceptions,
I would hesitate to tell an editor Take 10 frames off the
end of that shot, because how you interpret pace can be different.
An editor can think, This shot looks like its on for
a long time, but it only looks that way because of things that happened
earlier in the scene, so Im going to accelerate those earlier
things and that will allow this shot to hold on the screen longer.
Anne Coates: I dont care if a
director tells me to take 10 frames offbecause I dont
take 10 frames off. I take off what I think would be appropriate.
Most directors have no idea what 10 frames looks like. If you work
with Sidney Lumet, he knows what 10 frames are. Milos Forman does,
too. But most directors, when they say take 10 frames off,
theyre just kind of showing off to you. Ive learned
through the years you just do what you think is right. And theyll
think thats great because theyll never count the frames.
Glenn Farr: Ive had some directors ask
for seemingly endless variations of a scene, and usually thats
because the scene is not very well written. So they go through this
agonizing process, trying to get to some result with a scene. And
thats the most dangerous time for an editor, I think. Because
the editors a really easy target, and a lot of us are in this
unpleasant situation where you become the scapegoat.
Walter Murch: One of the other duties of the
editor is to provoke the director. Not in any bad way, but to say,
You could do this, or you could do that. Because no
matter how good you are as a director, filmmaking is so complex
that its just impossible to keep everything in your head at
the same time.
Its one of the functions of the editor to propose
things that may or may not be the answer, but may provoke some resonance
with a memory or idea that is latent in the directors mind
which will leap into consciousness once it sees what the alternative
Anne Coates: You have to have a lot
of patience to be an editor, which I think is one reason why women
are quite good at it. I always say its because theyre
mothers first. Most directors are like kids, so you need to have
the patience to deal with them. You have to stay cool so that if
the director doesnt like what youre doing, you can work
it out between the two of you.
Glenn Farr: The clichéd analogy is that
its a marriage. The director is the alpha-male; the editor,
no matter gender, is the wife. Its absolutely the case. As
editor, youre there to make that relationship work so that
the best possible result can come out of the editing room: which
is the child, the movie, the final writing of the screenplay.
Walter Murch: I like to think of the first
assembly not as the film but as the lens through which you can glimpse
the film. Youre not putting the film together; youre
constructing an apparatus through which it is possible to glimpse
the film. And the better you do that, the more high quality the
lens, the better youll see it.
Anne Coates: Showing the first cut to
the director is nerve-wracking, particularly if you havent
run scenes for the director during shooting. Im now working
with Adrian Lyne and he didnt want to see anything during
shooting, so he didnt see a single frame cut together until
I showed him the first cut.
Glenn Farr: I had a director get physically
ill after showing him a first cut. I used to take it personally,
but he told me, Its okay, I do this whenever I see a
first cut. Because theyre so worried. Its a scary
time for me, too, because Im on the spot. Is he or she going
to like this stuff? But you know, its really just the beginning
of the process. I dont even like to call it a cut.
Its the first assembly. I know that this is just
the departure point.
Walter Murch: There is going to be an expansion
between your first cut and the script... Its like a tailor
making a suit: the first time you put the suit on its baggy
and the job of the tailor is to now fit it exactly. You hope that
the first assembly of the film is 10 to 30 percent longer than what
you intended the length of the film to be; if its less than
10 percent, you dont have any flexibility. If its over
30 percent, you can only get down to the length that you want by
sacrificing the film equivalent of muscle and bone.
Anne Coates: In the first cut, I like
to leave in interesting bits that you know arent going to
be in there eventually. Then when you go in, you start cutting the
beginnings and ends of scenes downyou dont need those
little grace notes. But I think in the first cut you should have
those there because then you know youve got them if you should
want them.
Glenn Farr: With a lot of first time directors,
every scene has a beginning, middle and an end. One of the challenges
is to figure out what can start in the middle, or what can start
at the beginning and end in the middle. Its boring to have
every scene have a beginning, middle and an end, like a little play.
So I think its critical to try to remove anything thats
extra, anything that feels like a stage wait or thats keeping
the story from moving forward.
Anne Coates: I always say I went kicking
and screaming, but I knew that I would have to do it. Initially,
when I heard about [digital editing] I thought, Well it probably
wont catch on quickly. But when other editors in my
age group started doing films on the AVID I knew I would have to
learn. I always advise young people to learn to cut on film first,
because theres a precision about cutting on film thats
lacking when you cut digitally. To be able to actually handle film
and look at the pictures is wonderful. Although I would never want
to go back there now, because Ive advanced.
Glenn Farr: Non-linear editing systems are
greatbut the downside is it makes it look so easy, like anyone
can be an editor. But its just a tool.
Walter Murch: Why do you need an editor? If
you have a film in your mind, why cant you edit it yourself?
One of the joys of moviemaking is that a film is not a foregone
conclusion, but comes out of the chemistry of all the various people
who bring their own life experiences to the process. There are also
a lot of demands on a directors time, and for the film to
be the best someone has to be focused on it exclusively, 14 hours
a day. The director is at the beck and call of a lot of other forces
that take away from an almost pathological level of concentration
you have to have if youre a film editor.
Anne Coates: Years ago, I worked on
a film where the lead actor was also the producer, and I told him
that I didnt think a particular scene played in one shot,
that it needed coverage. It was a big comedy scene. And the director
and this actor looked at me as if I was an idiot, as if to say,
well if you cant see thats funny, theres
something wrong with your sense of humor. Well, six months
later they came to me to shoot the shots that were always needed
in the first place. Because, of course, the shot didnt hold.
It did on the set, when they were all laughing, but it didnt
on film. So if youre ever in doubt about a shot: Shoot it.
You can never have too much.
Glenn Farr: Too many directors stay in what I call the video village. They stand back with the video monitor and the playback guy. If there was one thing I could say to the director it would be get your eyes as close to the lens as you can and just be there for your actors. Its amazing how secure that makes an actor feel, aside from the most important reason, which is that the director can see whats going on in their eyes. I find that when the director is with the playback they miss something thats going on with the eyes. MM

We were to use the traditional Ohio Star pattern to make a modern quilt. I knew I wanted to create a quilt of stars in various sizes with a random setting. I remembered one of my favorite quilts by Faith of Fresh Lemons and knew I could substitute lots of Ohio Star blocks in the setting.
My color inspiration came from Rashida Coleman Hale's line Washi that I've been saving for a while. It's a scrappy quilt and I wanted to use as many of my favorite designer's fabrics as possible. The quilt has pieces from many different lines that you probably recognize.
And 17 cute, 6" Ohio Star blocks...
The back is one big 45" Ohio Star!
Be sure to check out all the others. We have one talented group!

- Finish the wholesale catalog and reformat patterns into shape. Start contacting LYSes with the catalog and sign up at least 10 by the end of the year to sell my patterns wholesale. Want to see the current incarnation of the wholesale catalog? Here it is. Feel free to send it to your favorite yarn shop owner and suggest she/he email me or place an order!
- Get a book proposal accepted. I have about three or four that I'll be proposing in the next months, and I want to have at least one of them accepted by the end of the year.
- Self-publish 12 patterns, either new ones or published ones that have returned rights to me. I currently have three KnitCircus patterns plus two new wraps at the TE's, so am well on my way here.
- Have 4-6 patterns accepted for publication. I'd love to see if I can get into more books, but am also nurturing relationships with some of the monthly/bimonthly magazines who need a lot of patterns.
- Work with smaller but established yarn companies who publish patterns based on their yarns. I feel like this is an area that I haven't pushed very much and would like to expand into.
- Submit 6-10 patterns for the KnitPicks Independent Designer Program. I have five that need to be written up, tested, edited, and posted, so am at least partway there!
- Develop regular clients in my tech editing business. Big shoutout to several women with whom I've worked more than once - Rachel Erin, Katherine Rollins, Harumidori Designs, Kristy Howell, Sara Morris, Three Irish Girls - you guys rock! It's particularly gratifying to work with designers over time and multiple patterns, especially ones who came to me with their first patterns and then come back after they've been hooked on writing. (Thanks Katherine, for pointing out that I forgot the advent of my tech editing in 2010 in the last post!)
- Continue to participate in the Phat Fiber boxes. Last year I had wanted to be in 9 boxes, but this year I'm being a bit more conservative - say, 6? I'm already missing January because I just wasn't inspired and had no time.
- This may be in opposition to the above one, but I also want to make 2011 a major stashdown year. I pulled all of my fiber out of the bins in which it's been living (fiber is unspun; yarn is spun), and it completely covered the rug in the craft room. This is bad, especially since I only learned to spin 18 months ago, and have had my wheel for less than 10 months. I'm on a fiber diet (again)! I probably should do the same thing with the yarn (not pull it out; go on a diet), but my SIL gave me a gift certificate to WEBS and I can't very well let it expire...
- Get the Katherine Vaughan Designs website really in shape and running. It's up now - if you have comments I'd love to hear them! Part of this is also making sure I make regular posts to this blog, which is a perennial thing on my to-do list anyway.
- Become active in and develop networking contacts through other members of the Association of Knitwear Designers, which I was accepted into in December.
The Obligatory New Year's Goals PostSaturday, January 01, 2011 Posted by KT at 4:55 PM
Technically I'm not writing this post on New Year's Day (we had a very busy day, with the tail end of a sleepover, seeing the "spare" family, then dinner with my brother & his family), but it will be datestamped 1/1/11 so try not to let that freak you out. I've discussed in previous years how much I hate making resolutions, since they always seem to get broken before January is out. However, I am a to-do list freak and so here is my "11 Things To Do in 2011" post:

It's the week before Thanksgiving and we have lots and lots of fun things happening in our room! Here's a peek at our week and all of the turkey activities taking over our room! Above is a picture of our "Mayflower and Pilgrims" that are currently available in our block area! You have to use your imagination of course but the kids sure are having a good time with it!
One of our predictable charts we used during shared reading time. Below is the pocket chart activity that went with it. Most of the charts we've used this year involved the kids putting sentence strips in order. For this one I cut up all of the words and they could make the individual sentences on their own. For many of my kids this was a little early in the year for them to attempt this. For the superstars however it was a nice challenge!
Our turkey word list and some turkey sentences we wrote together.
Some of our favorite books about turkeys!! We discussed how these books are different than the turkey facts we had been writing in our journals. One of my kiddos called them "turkey adventures!!" So we decided we needed to write our own turkey adventures! Since we are working on our writing stamina during our writing time we've only begun the covers of our adventures so far. I gave each child a blank book labeled "turkey" and a brown circle. They could turn the circle into a turkey and work on making the rest of the cover beautiful! We talked about really taking our time with our covers and making them as detailed as possible. The majority of my kids have been working on their COVERS for two days! I'm hoping their interest continues into next week and they can continue to actually begin writing their adventures!
Some of our beautiful turkey book covers!!
Ahhh...the tee-pee.
I was so thrilled when my kids outgrew this and I could bring it to school!
Then I experienced 20+ five year olds wanting to use the tee-pee at the same time.
Didn't seem like such a good idea anymore.
But now that I've had it in my room for awhile I now have a system that seems to be working. We do not use it for reading during Daily 5 (ABC centers in my room.) It's just too much of a distraction and gets to be too noisy for those walking by it. They like to peek in the windows a little too much. =) We use it for traditional centers and only two kids reading in it at a time. Today I let two kiddos with exceptional behavior read in it during our quiet time! That was a hit and something that I'll continue next week!
Hope you had an amazing week......I know I'm looking forward to a short week next week and a few extra days off!

Sugary shapes in the spotlight (again)
As part of an ongoing interest in understanding enzymes that process the sugar mannose, attention in the Williams group has focussed on a family of glycosidases for which the catalytic details remain obscure: α-mannosidases of glycoside hydrolase family 125.
In collaboration with theoreticians from Spain and structural biologists from the UK, the catalytic mechanism of this intriguing and biomedically-important class of enzymes has been finally elucidated (Alonso-Gil, S., Males, A., Fernandes, P., Williams, S.J., Davies, G.J., Rovira, C., Computational design-of-experiment unveils the conformational reaction coordinate of GH125 α-mannosidases, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2017, 139, 1085−1088).
A quantum mechanical, computational approach was used to predict the misleading nature of past structural work, and to design an experimental approach that allowed collection of X-ray crystallographic data that supported the computational prediction.
The work contributes a missing jigsaw piece to the complex stereoelectronic and conformational details of enzymatic mannose chemistry, and can be used as a blueprint for synthesis of selective inhibitors.
