Siem de Jong could well be in the squad for Sunday's game against Spurs at St. James' Park, as he came through playing 45 minutes for the Newcastle U21 side tonight, although we lost 2-0 to Derby County through two second half goals.
Siem de Jong – played 45 minutes tonight
Siem was the captain tonight in front of a watching John Carver and Managing Director Lee Charnley, and the interim head coach must have liked what he saw, with Siem very efficient in midfield.
Siem has had an injury ravaged season, with a badly torn thigh muscle he picked up in September, and then in February when he was almost back in the squad, the 26 year-old suffered a collapsed lung, which was immediately operated on.
But Siem could still come back and play in some of Newcastle's six remaining games, and that could be a big boost for our side who have lost five games in a row.
Siem played in the first half and John Carver would have been happy he came through OK and then – well would you believe it – on came on loan striker Facundo Ferreyra in the second half.
Facundu was coming back from a long-term back injury – so who knows maybe the Argentine on loan from Shakhtar Donetsk can also help us in some of the remaining games of the season.
Facundu has yet to play for the Newcastle first team – but if he shows good form on his comeback – there's no reason he cannot help us get the points we need through the end of the season.
This has to be viewed as positive for Newcastle, and we may even see Siem de Jong get a sub appearance for Newcastle in the second half on Sunday against Spurs – all being well.

I personally was not a Pardew fan. I don't think he was good enough to really take a team on, a bit like Pulis at stoke, his style would get you mid table but no real ability to go further and sustain that. I didn't mind him going, but hoped for a much better manager than carver.
What do you blame the pardew out lot for though? Do you not think it's Ashley's fault for not hiring a proper manager? It's not like we are short of the money to hire a decent coach and a few of his backroom staff.
And why do you think it's bad to protest against ashley?
Just curious, not trying to have a pop at you,
I dont know if you have seen this, but a very well written piece on our current predicament, by George Caulkin – well worth reading.
Injuries and underwhelming signings. The better part of twenty five million spent on Cabella,Riviere and De Jong, plus wages. Its not entirely true the club won't spend, nor indeed true as widely thought that the club spends well. Mbiwa, Anita, Iberian, Luuk De Jong, Ferreyra, added to that, you wonder how much better off we'd be in reality were Ashley to spend when its most needed. You'd simply suspect we'd just get the same share of more expensive ropey signings, among a slightly higher number of better ones.
Sorry mate been out for the Barca match.
I've only been twice this year Hull and the firkin derby 🙁 only went as they wa free tickets and to boo Pardew, so I'm one of the ones who's ruined things for Jeff, happy days.
Gave up going after we finished 5th, saw this coming in a way, didn't think it would be this bad or it would take fans this long to tell him to jog on.
It Would not surprise me if they try n rush de Jong back and grasp at any last straw to sway any floater to get in the ground next it will be free pies ..joke.
On another point has anyone had a look at buying tickets on the clubs website ?
I just went on and they are showing availability all around the ground but the entire upper tier of the milburn and leazes are showing n/a .
Is this due to these being all allocated to s/t holders and away support ?
or are they realising tickets aren't selling so they are filling the lower seats as best they can for the benefit of the tv cameras ?
just a thought like
beermonkey…I might do that, cheers mate.
OP…I'm sorry, but apparently you were alone. Either that, or eveyone, other than you, has suffered from memory loss. The Cat has got their tongues perhaps?
Let's not be daft. Admit it and move on, you are the only SJP attendee. Jeff's admitted to being embarrassed of being a Geordie, we're taking massive strides forward tonight.
Together we stand, HWTF!
Talking Newcastle United Ltd
We aint short of money now
We were when we appointed AP 5 months after promotion
MA is a billionaire and could have gone crazy any time but he knew the reality of the incoming financial restrictions so NUFC always had to be able to buy its round .
Just look at clubs around Europe and Man City at home .
Now we will be able to always compete on a level playing field , in fact because of Ashleys parsimony , more than compete.
One of SBR's many phrases resounds
"Toon fans like their footy like their coffee – Insant"
The real world aint like that.
Calling a simple man like John Carver who has been given a job way beyond his capabilities vile names reflects more on the name callers than sad John doing his inadequate best.
I'm sure the majority of real Toon fans are nicer and fairer than the empty heads that post on here.
This ridiculous boycott on Sunday will prove me either wrong or right
Caulkin is a wonderful writer on Newcastle. His voice and influence quite sadly thwarted by that infernal Times pay wall. If he were to start writing for the Guardian, you'd surely think he might be able to make a difference. Can't imagine too many of his muted readership actually giving a fig, as things stand.
Never buy cheap shoes you end up spending more and ruining your feet. Good advice Mike Ashley when you are thinking of splurging on bargain players who are a bit hit and miss, or injury prone. Did we start this idea of speculating on dodgy talent with that young lad from everton? Or was it Marveaux? Or Ben Arfa? Anyway it's cost us.
Graeme ,
excellent read again he shows the local media up nfor what they truly are .
my favourite bit ..love to see this on a banner rolling over the east stand opposite fat boy and his cronies ..
"Ashley owns Newcastle, but he is not Newcastle. He is not the blessed air in that stadium, the air that you breathe and which your relatives and friends and idols inhaled and exhaled before you. He is not the club. The club is your memories, the club is inside you, that power, that meaning, that identity, that black and white beauty, those long bus journeys, those bleary mornings and late nights, belonging and feeling, loving and hurting. Those good days. Your family. Your club. The club is you."
Well jeff from Benwell you've got a bit of a track record of hounding folk who speak up against mike Ashley haven't you?
So if you're not a mackem, do you work for the big guy?
Jeff…This isn't about Carver, most people know that.
"who has been given a job way beyond his capabilities"
This isn't the first time Ashleys done that. He has his priorities totally mixed up. As you know, I'm not from the area, but I take pride in being associated with Geordies. Well, I did before Ashley got his hands on it. This isn't a blog problem, or just a small group of people who expect too much, he alienates everyone, all in the name of profit. That may float your boat, clearly it does, but it isn't what captured all of hearts in the first place. I can't comment on pre Keegan and wont apologise for it, it was out of my control. What happened before is irrelevant, not being able to win the league anymore due to huge monies are irrelevant. We don't need that. We want a trophy, that's not Ashleys fault it's been ages, but we can wait. What we want is some desire and passion. It's a gift, not a nuisance or something to be embarrassed about.
If you genuinely feel strongly about your stance that Ashley is the best option we've got and we should really be happy with what we get, at least make the case for why we can't have that, because we don't – clearly. It's being seen worldwide Jeff.
Good points from tonight's game.
We have another goalie in our ranks who has stepped up into Woodmans shoes (Woolston?). Had to work his socks off as the rest of the team were happy for Derby to run circles round them.
Bad news:
Siem De Jong didn't look to being up for a first team game – so expect him to be wheeled out any time soon. Ferreyra is equally anonymous on the field as off. I'd be gobsmacked if he ever pulls on a first team shirt. Roberts also, had a quiet game by his standards. Kemen who has been on the bench of late, gave an indication of why he hasn't been brought on yet.
It doesn't matter if you believe JC, JC beleives Ashley.
We need to save a few quid and need to make ends meet, lol ends are meeting like a MOFO at NUFC.
Thanks for that
I stand by every syllable
Which part of Cornwall are you from.
I watched us on Monday night wearing black and white surrounded by Liverpool supporters from everywhere but Merseyside and mocked them so much that me and a kid from Bootle were the only 2 left in the bar at the end . He agreed with me that glory hunters are a modern curse and they should all support Manure .
Whatever we do as a fanbase Mike will not sell the club until he is ready. Back in the January 2013 he met with members of the Saudi Royal family & agreed a £350 million sale subject to the club staying in the Premier League. In July of that year he asked for £450 million which was rejected & he simply moved on.
There are a number of offers currently in play but his current valuation is north of £600 million as he knows NUFC are the most buyable Premier League team – Tottenham would require over £1 billion to be offered for the current owners to sell.
If you think these figures are pie in the sky then look @ sports deals in the USA which dwarf those of the UK & yet globally football is what people want.
He reportedly has made over 500 million just this year & his wealth exceeds over £3 billion & is growing so the small number of comments of making NUFC self sufficent are clearly true.
Jeff…Our truce? I hadn't realised we had one, a truce from what? I'm talking with you honestly. I don't understand where you're coming from with the need to attack / mock people. Just fun and games? Trying to mock people who are hurting? Simple retaliation? Drop the weapons. Talk.
My language skills are of little importance, but wowzer, it'll take a while, but with support and my family near I might just survive. No, I am far from fluent. I get by. It's better than Spanglish. I should know more and yeah, I think that's that really. I do just love me some Google Translate mind. Genius stuff. Do you like Google too?
You do love to bring politics in to the discussion. Before I say anything, humour me, it's almost bedtime and I could use a story. How have you made the jump to me being pro UKIP and anti immigrants?
The incomprehesible references from JFB simply cement his position. The blogger with malice aforethought. Almost certainly types his posts with only one hand.
It must be difficult for you, with your notable and longstanding patience in the face of goading by the less endowed of the Geordie nation – of which I am not either – being born in Morpeth so not in sight of SJP.
That's right, damn "modern supporters".
Are there any non "modern supporters" out there who feel the same as me? Maybe Jeff has finally sussed it, it's just the young fans who don't know better ruining it. Jolly glad we sorted that out then.
Elmanio..So what do we do then, nothing? Not much fun in that.
As I commented the other day this season will be the first in 41 years that I will not be going to SJP – I travel to the North East to visit family & so far this season I have gone to watch Darlington 1883 play in the Evostik League along with a 1000 + fans as that is by far more rewarding than visiting SJP.
My comment re Ashley is simply a statement of truth & my reaction is to give Darlo my money as he most definatley doen't need it
The blokes a fool and I don't know why you waste your time, solve the problems in the Middle East it'll be far easier than debating with the resident wum.
In his post below he says "vile names reflects more on the name callers than sad John"
He then in the same post goes on to call the bloggers on this site "empty heads" not a vile name but I'm you get the picture.
The genius of the man is there to behold, total bulls knacker!
The only thing longer than his brass neck is the pinochio nose he has firmly rooted up Ashley's backside.
Elmanio…Sorry, I must have missed the comment. If I responded to it at the time however, then please excuse me 🙂
Will you be joining the protest? Your action to not suport Ashley financially I believe to be a good one. I don't agree that we can't alter / speed up any process of Ashley selling. Actually, honestly, I don't really care about that so much right now, it's just so sad to see fans almost give up. Resign themselves to it. Why?
You are right – he doesn't need your money!
OP…During my time on the blog I have, despite what some might think, tried to be reasonable with people on here.
I wondered whether I had actually tried properly with Jeff as I was / am of the same opinion that he is in fact here just to cause bother. He isn't bringing anything in to the discussion, not that I can recognise anyway. If he has a message and we're all so silly, why not try and help us? But no, he'll attack. Says it all.
Tis nearly bedtime, yawn, I have something British to be doing in the morning no doubt. I'll probably use some words and throw an o on the end and pretend I'm speaking Spanish.
Chortle. Snort. Giggle. Snigger.
Might go to bed 🙂
Armstrong, De Jong, Kemen and the Scarlett Pimpernel played. Hooray!
Err,we lost 2-0 to the kids of a Championship side! Kids are in as bad a state as the 1st team because this Club is now rotten from top to bottom.
Elmanio – where did you get that story from about Saudi's? That rumour was from 2008 and I think you are confusing his earlier antics out in Dubai along with Llambias perhaps?
As for Jeff – I don't know what he's been watching or reading for 8 years that would make him even half believe Ashley is competent at anything other than making money. His football decisions at the Club have been atrocious year on year. The latest season is another prime example.
Tell you what, when he starts buying proven quality players instead of selling them , and a manager/coach of talent, then I may begin to change my mind.
Hopefully he disappears long before that is needed.

How Fit Is Your E-mail Program?
It's official: Forrester Research recently announced that e-mail is a blink or two away from achieving universal penetration, with 97 percent of consumers and 94 percent of marketers using the channel. By and large, massive channel adoption by a marketplace is a good thing. But when it comes to best practices in e-mail marketing, experts caution marketers to adjust their thinking if they consider the full 97 percent of the consumer market fair game for their e-mail efforts.
"The size of your e-mail file is not as important a measure of the health of your program as the engagement level of the file," states Austin Bliss, president of FreshAddress, an e-mail hygiene and deliverability solutions firm in Newton, Mass.
E-mail has developed as a more personal medium, one where people feel more ownership of their address (or addresses, as it might be) and thus exercise caution before sharing it with others. They also take extreme steps to protect the content of their inbox. A study from the Email Sender and Provider Coalition indicates that eight out of 10 respondents do not casually hit the "Report Spam" button in their e-mail clients; they understand the consequences for marketers and find it an acceptable way to force businesses to do a better job of meeting their needs.
"A customer who doesn't like you can hurt you. You can't push your agenda on them," explains Morgan Stewart, director, strategic services at ExactTarget, an e-mail software solutions firm in Indianapolis. A high spam complaint rate can get your e-mails blocked by ISPs, and a high unsubscribe rate has a negative impact on your program ROI—and could even affect your activity across other channels.
That's why meeting the regulations in the Can Spam Act is the "lowest threshold for best practices in e-mail," advises Bliss. It's also why of the 94 percent of marketers using e-mail, each company has to more tightly define best practices and benchmarks based on its particular marketing climate.

Well, I say this a lot, but anyone that knows me, knows that I love disturbing horror movies. I like to watch the movies my friends don't like to watch. I actually make the more hard-core ones watch disturbing movies that I find so I have someone to talk to about them. A lot of them hate me for it. I don't know what it is but messed up movies make me tick. I'm not weird, I'm NOT WEIRD! I just enjoying watching real 'wtf' moments in horror. While there are quite a few movies that are pretty sickening, disturbing, and hard to watch, I am yet to find a movie I can't watch. The below is my list of horror movies that I have seen and class as my most disturbing movies, and why, in no particular order. If there's any more messed up than listed, please, please let me know. I'll happily watch it and discuss with you!
A remake of the 1979 cult classic, Steven R. Monroe's, I Spit on Your Grave, hit more nerves for me than the classic. Starring Sarah Butler as writer Miss Jennifer Hills, I Spit on Your Grave features a drawn out brutalization scene, which starts off with a mentally ill member of the gang raping Miss Hills and nearly choking her as he climaxes. If that wasn't bad enough the whole gang decides to have a go. It's hard to watch alone, let alone with friends or a boyfriend/girlfriend, or worse family. The saving grace was that Jennifer got her revenge, and bloody well she did.
Pascal Laugier's Martyrs starts out like a standard revenge film, with one girl Lucie (Mylène Jampanoï) seeking to turn the tables on captors from whom she escaped many years before. Once the best friend, Anna (Morjana Alaoui), becomes involved the movie morphs into something much more sadistic. When I first saw Martyrs I was genuinely jaw-dropped at the final scene in which our surviving heroine is beaten and skinned alive in order to provide witness to the afterlife for the film's secret society. Martyrs is very well done and has many bloody parts to remember. The US just had to go and try ruin it by remaking.
The Dowdle brothers The Poughkeepsie Tapes is one of my favorites. Unfortunately it's very hard to find and it never did get a US distribution. The Poughkeepsie Tapes is psychologically terrifying and has so many genuinely disturbing scenes it's actually hard to pick one. From the whole treatment of Cheryl Dempsey, up to the gruesome killing of the mother who stupidly got into the back of a fake police car. That walk on all fours with the mask is something that will forever stay with me. The killer puts his victims through so much psychological abuse that it makes you feel uncomfortable as you watch it. I'm sure there is something in The Poughkeepsie Tapes that will be embedded into your brain for a long time.
If you can withstand the first hour of pretty much nothing happening, the last forty-five minutes of Antichrist certainly makes for some disturbing cinema. Lars von Trier's deep and deliberately provocative Antichrist will have men and women flinching at the dysfunctional grieving couple who retreat to the woods to grieve over to loss of their son. Starring Willem Dafoe whose poor testicles are crushed by his distressed wife (Charlotte Gainsbourg), who then proceeds to masturbate her unconscious husband until he ejaculates blood. Oh and she also performs a female circumcision on herself. Owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
I've included this movie based on the strength of two infamous scenes. Utilizing the reverse narrative structure, Vincent Cassel, Monica Bellucci and Albert Dupontel star in Gasper Noe's brutal drama depicting a nightmarish night out. The plot's horrific peaks; a brutal ten minute assault in which was one of the most shocking I have ever watched, and a hardcore nightclub murder in which a man's head is crushed to a bloody paste with a fire extinguisher. Irreversible will test your limits of endurance.
Many may wonder why this film is here if you have seen it, but for me, Ben Wheatley's Kill List was awesome for a number of reasons and one of the finest British thrillers in years. It has been one of the rare movies to have me slightly flinching. Ex-soldier and killer for hire Jay (Neil Maskell) agrees to take on a job with his partner in crime Gal (Michael Smiley), but things soon head out of control. Literally. "The Librarian" on the Kill List gets not only a hammer to the knee cap but also his hands and fingers, and finally, his skull in a brutally realistic scene. That, and the messed up ending get a disturbing horror thumbs-up.
Men Behind the Sun is a film that does not mess around. Tun Fei Mou's Men Behind the Sun is a historical gore-fest that tells the story of what occurred during WWII when the Japanese took Chinese and Russian soldiers as prisoners. It's insanely graphic and features gruesome experiments and some damn disturbing scenes. A live autopsy and a compression chamber in which a man's intestines are forced out of his body are just two of the graphic and disturbing scenes. Frozen and boiled arms is another, though I'm glad to hear the "cat scene" wasn't real. (I'm a sucker for a cute kitty).
If you can get past most of the acting and reach the end you may be pleasantly surprised with its offerings. Megan is Missing is a found footage fictional drama inspired by actual events which bases itself around two typical teenage girls online. Again, the acting is tedious and following the girls around there day to day routine and 'oh my god' attitude to everything does get tiring but if you can get to exactly the last 22 minutes of the film, you might find some scenes that might stay with you longer than you thought they would.
A Serbian Film has to be the current titleholder as the most insanely twisted and deeply disturbing film in recent horror history. It's banned in numerous countries and Netflix won't even touch it. Srdjan Spasojevic's A Serbian Filmfits in as much depravity as possible with no boundaries, going places many films wouldn't dare. Following the story line of an aging porn star Milos (Srdan Todorovic) who agrees to make a comeback. Heads chopped off mid-intercourse, unknown incest, unwanted oral and two words I just about dare utter; Infant. Rape. I think that says it all.

Consulting a REALTOR®
REALTORS® are members of The Canadian Real Estate Association who subscribe to a Code of Ethics and Standards of Business Practice. Members of the Victoria Real Estate Board are members of both the British Columbia and Canadian Real Estate Associations.The following is a list of services you can expect to receive from a REALTOR® when you buy a home:
- A REALTOR® will fully explain the details of your working relationship (called "agency") so that you are clear as to when a REALTOR® is working for you or for the seller.
- A REALTOR® has access to hundreds of current listings of homes for sale because of a co- operative system called the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®).
- A REALTOR® can provide you with a customized list of homes that best meet your needs -- size, style, features, location, proximity to schools, shopping, etc. - and then make arrangements for you to view those homes that appeal to you the most.
- A REALTOR® will help you determine how big a home you can afford. REALTORs® are familiar with the local lending market and can offer helpful advice.
- A REALTOR® has no emotional ties to any type or style of home and can be objective in pointing out the merits of one home over another.
- A REALTOR® will have information on zoning changes, taxes, utility costs and school and recreation services that could affect your decision to buy a home in a specific area.
- A REALTOR® will assist you in negotiating the terms of your purchase, which can be a nerve- wracking process for someone who is not experienced in negotiating.
- A REALTOR® will advise you of the legal process required in obtaining title and taking possession of your property; the costs associated with buying a home such as insurance, mortgage registration and legal fees will be explained in detail.
Source: Victoria Real Estate Board 2015
Selling Your Home - Why it Pays to Use a REALTOR®
Before selling your home, you will need a clear understanding of the legal issues and potential pitfalls. One wrong action could result in a lot of cost and frustration, which is why it is essential to have a REALTOR® working with you, as he or she will make the sale of your home a successful and satisfying experience.
Greater exposure
REALTORS® use the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) to give your home maximum exposure. MLS® is a computer-based system that relays valuable information about your home to hundreds of REALTORS® and potential homebuyers.
Setting a price
Setting a price for your home is an important but difficult process. Again, this is where the services of a REALTOR® prove invaluable. REALTORS® have the experience to help you understand how the market works and decide upon a realistic price that meets your goals. REALTORS® also pre-screen potential buyers to make sure only those who are serious and financially qualified view your home.
REALTORS® will also develop a marketing plan to help your property receive maximum exposure. This will likely include placing your home on the MLS® system and placing a "For Sale" sign on the front lawn. The plan will likely also include arranging open houses for other REALTORS® and potential buyers, and developing advertisements and feature sheets/mailers to market your home.
Once you have accepted an offer to buy your home, your REALTOR® will help ensure that all the proper paperwork is completed. He or she will also make sure that both parties meet the necessary conditions outlined in the agreement.
Why working with a REALTOR® makes sense
When you work with a REALTOR® you will likely get a better price for your home than if you try to sell it yourself. Apart from the financial benefits, however, there is an extra measure of comfort and security that comes from having a REALTOR® on your side. Remember that REALTORS® are governed by a code of ethics and standards of business practice. They have also been trained and licensed under the provincial Real Estate Services Act to assist in transactions involving real property. When it comes to buying or selling property, using a REALTOR® just makes sense.

I have lived in Victoria, BC with my two children for the last 30 years.
Before embarking on a career in real estate, I was privileged to be with Goodwill Enterprises Corporation for 3.5 years, in a supervisory and teaching position. It was a rewarding experience, giving me a new understanding of these special people, and how important they are to our communities.
Before that, I was an instructor for Okanagan College for 12 years, and I also had my own business as an interior design and upholstery consultant in Vernon, BC. During that time I was commission by the city to do the suites to be occupied by the Queen.
Since being in real estate, now for more than 21 years, I have accomplished the status of being among the top producers of my office. I have also won the prestigious "Gold Award" and "Silver Award" in the real estate industry for Victoria. Out of approximately 1300 licensed Realtors in Victoria, I am one of the top producers. I have been with Pemberton Holmes Real Estate for more that 17 years now and I regularly receive the prestigious Joseph Pemberton Award for top sales in the company.
Real estate is a personal service. Don't hire a company, hire a person. Expect knowledge and skill from the Realtor that you hire in the areas of financing, contracts, negotiating and marketing. Select a Realtor with a track record of producing results. Buying or selling a home should not be left to chance and is not something that you let a "friend try." Trust the buying or selling of your home only to a professional. Accept nothing less than excellence.
Whether you are looking to buy or sell a home, a homesite or investment property, I promise results for you and communication along the way. I invite you to contact me directly to explore how I may assist you.
Thank you!

San Diego's medical office occupancy increased in the first quarter of 2017, posting an increase of 28,144 square feet of positive net absorption, according to the latest research from JLL. The current overall San Diego County direct vacancy rate of 6.6% is 51% lower than in 2009, when it peaked at 13.6%.
The majority of the region's medical office submarkets recorded minor movement in total occupancy. The Oceanside/ Vista submarket increased occupancy by 32,728 square feet, dropping into single-digit vacancy (9.8%) for the first time since 2008. The La Jolla/UTC/Sorrento submarket posted 20,146 square feet of positive net absorption.
The weighted average asking rental rate for MOB space continues to climb, with a current year-over-year increase of 4.9% for the county overall. The largest year-over-year increase was La Jolla/UTC/Sorrento, which increased 14.6%, and had the county's highest average asking monthly rental rate at $3.93 per square foot, fully serviced.

In Answer to Solzhenitsyn
Letter to the Soviet Leaders
Solzhenitsyn sent his letter to the Soviet leaders on September 5, 1973. Soon after he was deported from the USSR, it was published abroad,1 and excerpts were read over the radio. I believe it to be very important that this statement by an author of such indisputable world-wide prestige—a statement which he undoubtedly considered carefully and which reflects his essential views on many basic social questions—be subjected to serious analysis, especially by representatives of independent thought in our country. For me, it is doubly necessary to offer a critique of Solzhenitsyn's letter because it contains several parallels to, and a covert debate with, certain of my previous statements on social questions—statements which I have since partially revised but which mostly still seem to me correct. But most of all, it is my disagreement with certain of the letter's substantive ideas that compels me to speak out.
Solzhenitsyn is one of the pre-eminent writers and publicists of our day. The dramatic conflicts, striking images, and original language of his works convey his position—arrived at through much suffering—on the most important social, moral, and philosophical problems. Solzhenitsyn's special and exceptional role in the spiritual history of our nation is associated with an uncompromising, accurate, and profound exposition of human misery and the crimes of the regime, crimes that were unprecedented in their harshness and secrecy. This role of Solzhenitsyn's was already clearly evident in One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich; now it recurs in the great book The Gulag Archipelago, which I deeply respect. Whatever one's attitude toward Solzhenitsyn's positions, his own work must be regarded highly; and his influence will continue in the years ahead.
In his letter Solzhenitsyn again speaks of the sufferings and sacrifices which have been the fate of our people in the past sixty years. With particular conviction and a heavy heart he writes of the lot of women who, because of inadequate family budgets, must so often combine household duties and the bringing up of children with the heaviest kind of work to earn money; of the consequent deterioration in child rearing and the disintegration of the family; of the general drunkenness which has become a national scandal; of the theft, mismanagement, and featherbedding in government work; of the ruin of cities, villages, rivers, forests, and the soil. Like Solzhenitsyn, I consider those achievements which our propaganda so loves to boast about to be insignificant compared with the consequences of overstrain, disillusionment, and the depression of the human spirit.
However, even in the first part of Solzhenitsyn's letter, which is devoted to critical fact-finding, there are certain peculiarities in his position which provoke in me uneasiness and a feeling of dissatisfaction, both of which are intensified with further reading. What strikes me in particular is that Solzhenitsyn singles out the sufferings and sacrifices of the Russian people. Of course everyone is entitled to write, and be concerned, about what he knows best—what disturbs him more personally, more concretely. And yet we all…

This is a review of the interesting articles, Tweets, Facebook posts and more which took place this week in and around our Multilingual Living universe. Thank you everyone for sharing your tips with me! Keep them coming!
Spanish Makes Me Sick!
Last week I couldn't stop praising Mi Vida Loca, could I? I told you how my whole family was addicted to it – we had fallen in love with it! But as can happen with a love affair that moves too quickly and passionately, before I knew it, I was sick of it and sick of Spanish.
After doing 10 episodes over the course of 2 days, I could not stand it anymore. As someone said on Twitter, I was having a language hangover! Yes! Listen to the gory details in my video diary and let me know if you've ever had a language hangover.
As with any hangover, I ended up on the sofa all day with eyes glazed over. I was physically tired and sick. So, my language-learning friends, if any of you out there find yourself in the same language-learning-overload predicament as me, do what I did and give yourself a break – as in: shut off all language programs, close the books, set aside the podcasts and instead listen to Mozart or watch some completely mindless programs on TV.
What did I do to recover? I went to Deutsche Welle online and watched one program after another. Ahhh. Yes! Even though German is my second language, it was pure pleasure to watch programs in a language that I can understand so much better than Spanish (and not something in my everyday language)! It's as silly as can be but die Telenovela für Deutschlerner, "Jojo sucht das Glück," was just what I needed to recover from my Mi Vida Loca hangover!
Do You Have One Hour a Day?
Did you know that language learning is similar to compound interest? With financial investing, you have to wait until sometime in the future but with language learning you can enjoy the fruits of your labor right now which actually helps it grow! Wow, talk about immediate gratification!
The article, Bilingual Children with One Hour of Language a Day, got many people motivated. They were reminded of the fact that even one hour of language a day has benefits. Over time it can even help our children become bilingual! One Multilingual Living visitor, Chitty, is asking others if they would like to join her for a "One Hour a Day Challenge" to strengthen one of her languages! Check out her post in the Multilingual Living Forum and consider joining her! What do we have to lose? Let's give one another as much support as possible!
School Is Here
Here in the Pacific Northwest, grade schools are in session again. As we are a homeschooling family, we don't feel the same degree of transition as others do except for the fact that we (1) turn in our DOI (a form titled "Declaration of Intent to Homeschool") with the superintendent of Seattle Schools and (2) our kids start a new year at the German Language School Seattle on Saturdays.
The Multilingual Living Facebook page was aflutter this week with fantastic discussions about schools and education for our multilingual children! If you missed the discussions, visit the page and add if you are so inclined, add your own comments!
The first discussion was about when schools start around the world and how much of a break (if any) the kids have between sessions in the summer. What fascinating answers! Below are a few. The rest you can find in the September 5th wall post on the Multilingual Living Facebook page:
- Marcela wrote: "In Costa Rica school goes from mid February to the end of November."
- Nupur wrote: "Amazing, I am living in India and here the school start in April with summer break from mid May to June end and the session ends in March end. Amazing how different places have different systems according to weather cycles."
- Yunisrina wrote: "In Aceh, school holiday is in June-July for a month, but the kids get another month off during the Ramadhan (fasting month for the Muslims)."
- Kathryn wrote: "In France la rentrée was last Thursday after 2 months of holiday, and the first national strike is tomorrow :-)"

EC issues recommendations for upcoming negotiations with UK
On 3 February 2020, the European Commission issued a recommendation to the Council to open negotiations on a new partnership with the United Kingdom. This recommendation is based on the existing European Council guidelines and conclusions, as well as on the Political Declaration agreed between the EU and the United Kingdom in October 2019.
It includes a comprehensive proposal for negotiating directives, defining the scope and terms of the future partnership that the European Union envisages with the United Kingdom. These directives cover all areas of interest for the negotiations, including trade and economic cooperation, law enforcement and judicial cooperation in criminal matters, foreign policy, security and defence, participation in Union programmes and other thematic areas of cooperation.
With regard to participation in Union programmes, the proposal states that "The envisaged partnership should establish general principles, terms and conditions for the United Kingdom's participation in and contribution to Union and Euratom programmes, subject to the conditions set out in the corresponding instruments, in areas such as science and innovation, youth, culture and education, development and international cooperation, defence capabilities, civil protection, space and other relevant areas when in the Union's interest. This will include the general rules for the financing and the control and audit of the implementation of the programmes, and the appropriate consultation of the United Kingdom."
As for mobility, the EC proposal states that "The envisaged partnership should aim at setting out conditions for entry and stay for purposes such as research, study, training and youth exchanges." The proposal also refers to defence research, stating that "collaboration in the development of research and capability projects of the European Defence Agency (EDA)" should be facilitated through an administrative arrangement, where it is in the industrial and technological interest of the Union.
This EC recommendation is the first step in the negotiation process, as the Council is invited to authorise the Commission to formally open the negotiations for a new partnership with the United Kingdom. As a next step, the Council will have to adopt the draft negotiating directives.

It is important to control user permissions because some staff members will only need to read the data, while others will need to manage what data is collected, alter how it is collected and manage user access. This also helps to avoid multiple people changing the settings in Google Analytics, which could have detrimental effects on your reporting. It is best only to give full-edit access to users who understand the implications of configuration changes. To assign permissions You can assign user permissions at the account, property, and view levels. Click Admin. Click User Management in the ACCOUNT, PROPERTY, or VIEW column. Four permissions are available that you can apply singly or in combination: Manage Users– Can manage account users (add/delete users, assign permissions). Does not include Edit or Collaborate. Edit – Can perform administrative and report-related functions (e.g., add/edit/delete accounts, properties, views, filters, goals, etc., but not manage users), and see report data. – Edit permission is required at the account level to create filters.– Edit permission is required at the view level to apply filters.– Includes Collaborate. Collaborate – Can create personal assets, and share them.– Can collaborate on shared assets, for example, edit a dashboard or annotation. Includes Read & Analyze. Read & Analyze – Can see report and configuration data; can manipulate data within reports (e.g., filter a table, add a secondary dimension, create a segment); can create personal assets, and share them, and see shared assets. – Cannot collaborate on shared assets.

convert a 'foreach' loop into a parallel foreach loop
Let's say you have the following foreach loop, which sends an output of results to Grasshopper:
var results new List<bool>(new bool[pts.Count]); foreach (Point3d pt in pts) { bool isIntersecting = CheckIntersection(pt, shape); results.Add(isIntersecting); } DA.SetDataList(0, results);
We set up a list to take our results, we cycle through our points, do a calculation on each, and then save the result. When finished, we send the result as an output back to Grasshopper. Simple enough.
The best thing to do is I show you how to parallelise this, and then explain what's happening. Here's the parallel version of the above code:
var results = new System.Collections.Concurrent.ConcurrentDictionary<Point3d, bool>(Environment.ProcessorCount, pts.Count); foreach (Point3d pt in pts) results[pt] = false; //initialise dictionary Parallel.ForEach(pt, pts=> { bool isIntersecting = CheckIntersection(pt, shape); results[pt] = isIntersecting; //save your output here } ); DA.SetDataList(0, results.Values); //send back to GH output
Going from 'foreach' to 'Parallel.ForEach'
The Parallel.ForEach method is what is doing the bulk of the work for us in parallelising our foreach loop. Rather than waiting for each loop to finish as in single threaded, the Parallel.ForEach hands out loops to each core to each of them as they become free. It is very simple – we don't have to worry about dividing tasks between the processors, as it handles all that for us.
Aside from the slightly different notation, the information we provide is the same when we set up the loop. We are reading from collection 'pts', and the current item we are reading within 'pts' we will call 'pt'.
The concurrent dictionary
One real problem though with multithreading the same task is that sometimes two or more processes can attempt to overwrite the same piece of data. This creates data errors, which may or may not be silent. This is why we don't use a List for the multithreading example – List provides no protection from multiple processes attempting to write into itself.
Instead, we use the ConcurrentDictionary. The ConcurrentDictionary is a member of the Concurrent namespace, which provides a range of classes that allow us to hold and process data without having to worry about concurrent access problems. The ConcurrentDictionary works just about the same as regular Dictionaries, but for our purposes we can use it much like a list.
It is a little more complicated to set up, as you need to specify keys for each value in the dictionary, as well as the value itself. (I have used dictionaries once before here.) Rather than having a collection of items in an order that we can look up with the index (the first item is 0, the second item is 1 and so on) in a dictionary we look up items by referring to a specific item. This specific item is called the 'key'. Here, I am using the points as the key, and then saving their associated value (the results we are trying to calculate) as a bool.
How much faster is parallel computation?
Basic maths will tell you that you will that your code should increase at a rate of how many cores you have. With my 4-core machine, I might expect a 60 second single-threaded loop to complete in about 15 seconds.
However, there are extra overheads in parallel processing. Dividing up the work, waiting for processes to finish towards the end, and working with the concurrent dictionary, all take up processor power that would otherwise be used in computing the problem itself.
In reality, you will still likely get a substantial improvement compared to single-threaded performance. With 4 cores, I am finding I am getting a performance improvement of around 2.5 to 3.5 times. So a task that would normally take 60 seconds is now taking around 20 seconds.

Latest Mods to My Can-Am
Gunny posted a topic in ATV & Off Road ModificationsBeen busy the last little while finishing a bathroom for the wife while the dealer did some work on my Can-Am. Before you say, "What the hell did ya take it to the dealer for ??" ...... let me finish my "What Have YOU Done for Your ATV Today ??" report ....... When I took the tracks off, I noticed both the front and the rear diff seals were leaking and there a pin hole in the front inner CV boot down inside one of the boot creases ... so, after talking to the dealer (who BTW, seems to ALWAYS treat me right) said he could have it all fixed in a couple hours once he had the parts in hand. So I took it in and first, he ordered two diff seals right ?? ... Well BRP in their infinite wisdom, thought that must be a mistake & only sent ONE seal .... so after the other seal comes in they start the work and when the pull the front axle to change that boot .... the CV joint fell apart !! They said they had never seen that before, there was plenty of grease in the boot, so ... ?? ..... Anyway, they ordered a new one .... under warranty !! ........ Now is THAT cool or what !!?? .... So I wait a few more days to get my bike fixed ... and in the mean time, I had been ordering stuff !! First, I bought several 15 ft rolls of the DEI Titanium Header Wrap and Re-Double-Wrapped my header pipes. The old DEI header wrap was 2yrs old & it just kinda fell apart and came off in pieces and some had just burnt away too. Next, I had heard about a "High Performance Water Pump Impeller" for the Can-Am's but I could NOT find out where to buy one. After about a year of searching, I found out they're made in Czechoslovakia. I contacted the guy but he didn't want to send just one because he said shipping would be expensive. Then I found a guy who has been making frames for that guy & said he would order a batch next time he did a shipment ... but I have no idea when that would be. So, asking around again and making some more phone calls, I found a performance shop in Canada that had some ... it was a lot more ... but I ordered one anyway. This impeller is suppose to move 40% more water. And you might ask, "Did I Really Need It ??" ....... and my reply is, "What a silly question !!" After taking the stock plastic one out, I noticed some of the vanes look pretty beat up. Not sure if that's the way it was new, or if the heat was breaking it down ?? While my bike was down, I spent some time talking with my dealer about suspension and shocks. I told him I really wanted to get some Elka's, but didn't want to spend a ton of cash. He told me he was a dealer for Fox shocks already and he would call Elka to see what it would take to become an Elka shock dealer as well. So, two days later, he gives me a call and told me was now a dealer for Elka shocks and that he would give me a good deal if I wanted to order a set. So I make a mad dash down to the dealer & order a set of Stage 2+R's. And boy, did he give me a GREAT deal !! And with these shocks I knew the Rubberdown Lift I had wouldn't work (at the rear anyway), so I ordered a Highlifter Lift Kit. After all that work, I greased it, changed the tranny and engine oil & filter. Now all I have left to do is install the skid plates, gas her up ........ AND GO FOR A RIDE !! :partyc: ...

Honda250rider posted a topic in General ATV DiscussionSome of you know that I'm looking at replacing my dad's dirt bike with a atv. We found a really nice 07 raptor 350 for a good price on ebay. What are some cheap mods/adjustments that can help get more power out of a 350? Thanks
Yamaha Breeze mods?
Breeze1405 posted a topic in ATV & Off Road ModificationsWell hello there, I just recently registered, so Hi to all of you. I bought a 1999 Yamaha Breeze for $1000 about two years ago. It was a fun bike when I first bought it, I was only about 90 pounds and about 14 years old. I started riding when I was 7 or 8, Dad bought me a Suzuki 80. Raced in NH a couple times and decided to try and race dirtbikes. Didn't like it and went back to 4 wheels. I bought the Breeze and went trail riding with my older neighbor atleast once a week during the summer. Soon began having idle problems and carb issues, so I let it sit for about 6 months. Just recently brought it to the shop and got it all tuned up and running great. My neighbor just bought a new 450, and the thing rips, I am still only about 100 pounds and about 5'3. I feel kind of left out of the fun, I got a automatic that really can't keep up to any of my friends. Is there anything I can do to make it pick up quicker, sound better, even look better? I am willing to sink money into it if it will be worth it. I have looked for aftermarket parts, but I seem to be out of luck. The plastics on the bike are gray and scratched, it is not a very attractive quad. Any suggestions for me? I may buy an older blaster soon if I can't find some joy in riding my 125. I just don't feel like buying another used quad at the moment, and don't have the money for a new raptor 250.

Direct from Abu Dhabi—the TLC has a new director
On March 2, Dr. Brad Johnson became director of SFU's Teaching and Learning Centre. Previously he was director of the Center for Educational Innovation at Zayed University in the United Arab Emirates, and prior to that he was founding director of the Center for Teaching and Learning at the University of Calgary in Qatar. His research interests include mobile learning, inter-professional (healthcare) collaboration and education (IPE/IPP), and transnational education, and he describes himself as "a strong believer in the inclusion of students as co-researchers and as co-explorers." Read his message to the SFU community.
SFU honours three exceptional teachers
Sheri Fabian (senior lecturer and associate director, undergraduate programs, School of Criminology), Chantal Gibson (senior lecturer, School of Interactive Arts and Technology) and Michelle Pidgeon (associate professor, Faculty of Education) received Excellence in Teaching Awards at the SFU Awards Dinner on March 8. They will be featured in the SFU News later this week. In the meantime, browse the SFU Gallery of Teaching Excellence recipients dating back to 1982.
Teaching students to argue
Joan Sharp, a teaching professor in Biological Sciences, finds that many of her students have difficulty distinguishing between argumentation and evidence. She uses an online tool developed at SFU to teach them how to evaluate conflicting points of view in order to arrive at a supportable conclusion. It's a skill that she considers fundamentally important for all students. Read a Q & A about her approach and the success she has had with it.
Multilingual learners: What helps international and EAL students?
SFU's Centre for English Language Learning, Teaching and Research (CELLTR) has announced a speaker series focusing on multilingual learner issues and research, including practical strategies for helping EAL students succeed. The first two presentations are "Beyond Linguistic Competence: International Student Well-Being and Engagement in English Medium Post-Secondary Education" (March 29) and "Challenges and Successes of Students from International Pathways" (April 12). See the event descriptions.
Open Education Week: A chance to re-examine assumptions
March 27–31 is Open Education Week around the world. The goal is to raise awareness of a movement dedicated to creating "a vast pool of openly shared educational resources" to make education more accessible. SFU will participate by co-hosting "The Failure of Access: Rethinking Open Education" at Harbour Centre on March 28, 5:30–8:30. The evening will include a reception and panel discussion to explore the contention that "there is little formal evidence that open education has an impact on increasing access to learning or making education more equitable." It's free, but space is limited and registration is required.
Media creation skills for SFU faculty members and staff
When the Beedie School's Undergraduate Career Management Centre integrated its Business Career Passport workshops into an introductory marketing course, manager Lisa Higashi identified a need for course materials tailored to the student audience. Although she had never produced a video, she decided to take up the challenge with the help of the EdMedia Program, a training program that offers SFU faculty members and staff the chance to develop media production skills while producing usable resources. Read about her experience.

by Dorothy Attakora
Toronto, 26
Her inspiration: "To answer this question, is to expose my personality as my clothing is really an extension of me. The complexities of the clothing, the inter-sectionalities, and yet the stark contrasts are what makes us unique. This answer will change depending on the collection. I draw inspiration from elements of nature, to key people in my life, to the energy I am feeling at the moment while sketching. I generally start with the print, and allow the fabric to tell it's own story."
The beginning: "Ever since I was a young child I have taken a keen interest in not conforming and looking like everyone else. I never wanted to show up to an event wearing the same thing as someone else, and thus began custom designing my own clothing for major events. My grandmother played such a magnificent role and I proudly identify her as the master mind behind this line. As a seamstress herself who taught many women how to sew to start their own businesses, she would always create beautiful pieces for me, send delicious textiles and that really began a love for African batik's, Ghanaian Kente's, lace etc."
Target audience: "As a Mina Danielle client myself, my target audience is anyone like myself who cringes at the thought of purchasing an article of clothing knowing somewhere, someone will also purchase the same piece. Anyone with the fear of getting lost within the masses, and not standing out. I really allow our clients to self identify themselves and their definition of women. There is no one model of who we serve and that is very important to me. And most importantly anyone who is as taken away by African print."
Her fashion memory:"My first fashion memory would have to be my first communion dress from the second grade. I got a dress custom made and to this day I can still recall how proud and beautiful I felt on that day to show up in something no one else was wearing. The all white dress felt like the perfect wedding dress, it was a long sleeve, 50's silhouette with the most exquisite details. Even to this day I look at old pictures from that day and beam with pride. It was the first time I can recall reactions to a custom made piece, the first experience I can recall not listing a name of a store and truly experiencing the ways in which clothing can enhance one's personality and emotions."
Fave designers: "Esthetically I must say hands down Jean Paul Gaultier. I mean, let's be serious, I cannot get enough of this French Haute Couture Designs. He is unapologetic for his pieces, uniquely passionate and exudes confidence. I love that he invites celebrities and stars to be part of his shows. With regards to African clothing lines, I commend Boxing Kitten for the break through they have made with celebrities who have really accelerated the trend. As a shoe lover, I must say it is very important not only to visualize the pieces I create, but envision shows and accessories that will coordinate. With that said, I always draw from Christian Louboutin. From the shoes, to sandals, to the branding of his empire, I just love him. I mean, who doesn't want to rock the red soles with their Mina Danielle piece?"
Dream muse: "Great question. I would love nothing more than to work with Adele. She has such an amazing aura that I feel I want associated with my line. Her music, her message, her voice, it all just fascinates me. The way she carries herself exudes so much confidence and positivity that she would be the perfect role model. I am passionate about my job, the work I do and the fabrics that I work with, and I feel she would bring it to life. And as a designer, her gorgeous gray eyes and stunning hair would be so much fun to work with. She's just gorgeous, inside and out."
Fave fashion decade: "I love the binary opposing aesthetics of the 40's silhouettes that come together so well. The notion of women exploring men's wear while men were away at war is just mind boggling to me. The sheer brilliance of being resourceful and recycling men's attire is not only economically and environmentally friendly, but highlights the type of vision necessary to see the potential of men's wear as feminine. The blazers, suite jackets, squared shouldersand skirts were clearly reminiscent of men, and yet there is an unmistakable softness and feminine details. Just genius. I love anything that is out of the norm and the element of rebellion brought so perfectly with fashion is delightful."
Her personal style: "In short, color. Bold, bright, fun and confident. A more in depth analogy proves to be more complicated and I would say my personal style is very versatile, eclectic and often confusing for many. Simple, yet loud, and mundane but accented with the most out of this world accessories. I mean, I love to explore and test the waters, but you can find me walking barefeet to the earth one day and working a pair of Alexander McQueen, Black leather studded zip front platform booties the next day. The Mina Danielle line alone shows the depths in which I love the simple things in life being reflected with the connection with working with local women in Kenya and Ghana to provide a source of revenue, and on the same hand, I also love the finer things in life and love and enjoy skipping through both elements. It's so much fun to not be restricted to just one box."
Style advice to her customers:"Ladies, nothing is more sexy than confidence, nothing! Wear it every day, everywhere and never leave it at home. It's really that simple. And don't forget to accessorize with a smile."
Her fashion rule: "My fashion rule *drum roll please* is that rules are meant to be broken. *laughs* Kidding (well partially). I really really dislike athletic wear dressed up with heels so there are definitely boundaries that need to be set. Would it be vain if I said a fashion rule is to have at least one piece of Mina Danielle in your wardrobe? Try it ladies, and thank me later." What she wishes for the fashion industry:"More models that represent the people, that represent real women. I don't ask for plus size models, I don't ask specifically for women with curves or alternative models. No thank you, such terms are problematic to me. They assume a second tier,a second string of models, outside the norm, assume that models outside what we are already seeing in the mainstream are different or to be treated or looked at as different. Fashion is such a beautiful thing, that brings me so much joy, offers choice, inspiration, creativity and a form of art and therapy. The fact that so many women aren't able to experience and see the same things that I see about the fashion industry is quite frankly repulsive and a little sad. Give women options!"
Where will this take her:"In five years I see Mina Danielle Designs in your local Toronto boutiques. I want to open up our own boutiques in various parts of Canada, United States, London and parts of Africa. I want to really make this a movement. To raise awareness to Ankara fabrics, to have kente prints recognizable and for people to actually acknowledge where such prints come from. I want the women I work with to prosper, for the world to hear their stories and be more educated about issues at Mina Danielle that we take on. At the end of the day, I want Mina Danielle to become a household name."

After the filler has dried, we had applied a special flexible lining paper.
The last thing to do was to apply a fresh layer of paint which can be seen on the last photo. The result is enormous.

Sewage Spills into Aquatic Park
Posted Tue., April 8—A sewage spill discovered at Bayer Healthcare's Berkeley campus at noon Monday prompted the city's Division of Environmental Health to prohibit human contact with water in a section of the Berkeley Aquatic Park.
City officials told the Planet Tuesday they would be able to disclose the spill amount—consisting primarily of human feces—after receiving a report from Bayer about the incident.
The city's Environmental Health Manager Manuel Ramirez described the spill, caused from a city sewer pipe blockage, as fairly small.
The environmental health department collected water samples from Aquatic Park today (Tuesday) morning to test for fecal coliform bacteria, which is present in human feces, and carries pathogens that could infect humans.
Bayer officials informed the city's environmental health department about a sewer release at the campus south of Building 14, at 800 Dwight Way, at 12:40 p.m. Monday, Ramirez said, after which a team went out to the site to meet with Bayer representatives to try to eliminate the overflow and contain the spill.
"Some of the effluent reached a storm drain which feeds a basin that enters a wetland area of Aquatic Park," Ramirez said. "We put up signs between Bancroft Way and Carlton to warn people to avoid contact with water. At this point the total spill amount or that of the effluent which reached the storm drain has not been reported. I know they were able to clear the blocking and took action to contain the spill between 2 and 3 p.m."
The area posted by the environmental health department includes the Dreamland children's playground and the beginning of the disc golf course, where golfers often wade through water to rescue their discs.
Bayer's Berkeley campus, located next to the Aquatic Park, is the company's global center for hemophilia and cardiology pharmaceuticals and manufactures Kogenate, a large protein pharmaceutical which treats hemophilia.
The campus Community Relations Manager Trina Ostrander said the size of the spill was "fairly significant."
"It's hard to give an estimate because it was flowing," she said. "But the only thing that goes into the pipe from Bayer is human waste and clean water."
Ostrander said that a couple of Bayer employees had discovered the spill and notified the campus emergency response team.
"Our environmental manager contacted the city," she said. "The pipe is under Bayer property but it's a city pipe so both the teams worked together to contain the spill."
The city's Public Works Department is investigating the layout of the blocked pipe which carries sewer from the campus, Ramirez said.
Calls to Public Works for comment from the Planet were not returned by press time.
"Of course you don't want a spill," said the city's Public Information Officer Mary Kay Clunies-Ross. "But the right people are on it taking the right step."
The water samples will be sent to a public lab to test for possible human sewage and the results will be available within the next two days, Ramirez said.
"We are monitoring to make sure that the bacteria levels are below what could affect humans," he said. "We are advising people to stay out of the water and will keep the signs up until the testing is completed and we know its safe to go into the water ... Some of these underground sewer pipes are quite old, although the city has done some updates."

Inside This Clay Jug….
Inside this clay jug there are canyons and pine mountains, and the maker of canyons and pine
All seven oceans are inside, and hundreds and millions
of stars.
The acid that tests gold is there, and the one who
judges jewels.
And the music from the strings no one touches, and
the source of all water.
If you want the truth, I will tell you the truth:
Friend, listen, the Holy One who I love is inside.
