Etymology 1[edit]
From Middle English clucchen, clicchen, cluchen, clechen, cleken, from Old English clyċċan ("to clutch, clench"), from Proto-Germanic *klukjaną, from Proto-Germanic *klu- ("to ball up, conglomerate, amass"), from Proto-Indo-European *glew- ("to ball up; lump, mass"). Cognate with Swedish klyka ("clamp, fork, branch"). The noun is from Middle English cleche, cloche, cloke ("claw, talon, hand"; compare Scots cleuk, cluke, cluik ("claw, talon")), of uncertain origin, with the form probably assimilated to the verb.
Alternative etymology derives Old English clyċċan from Proto-Germanic *klēk- ("claw, hand"), from Proto-Indo-European *glēk-, *ǵlēḱ- ("claw, hand; to clutch, snatch"). If so, then cognate with Irish glac ("hand").

DNV GL leads discussion on digitalisation of health systems

One of the key questions that emerged at DNV GL workshop Internet of People – Rebooting healthcare, on digitalisation of healthcare in December was "how to enable trust in digital healthcare solutions?"
Jahn Henry Løvaas, the Executive Director of Life Sciences, DNV GL, added that "healthcare could learn from the experience of other industries where trust is crucial."
As explained by Eva Turk, lead researcher at DNV GL, Internet of People refers to the digitalisation of relationships between people, as well as the collection, processing and use of personal data. "The interconnectedness of technology, data, individuals and healthcare workers can facilitate the creation of new models of care that are participatory, predictive, personalised and focused on prevention", she said.
Professor Brian Caulfield, Insight Center for Data Analytics adds; "We have the technology tools to make a revolution in healthcare happen, but it is not there yet. We have to ask, why is that the case?"
Ms Terje Peetso (European Commission, DG for Communications Networks, Content & Technology) referred to current EU initiatives, which help address the issue of trust.
The main benefits of the adoption of Internet of People in the healthcare field identified include a more personalised approach to care, a shift from reactive to preventive care and lower healthcare costs. Moreover effective health data collection and use has the potential of revolutionising health research. To benefit from that however, associated risks such as data privacy, lack of trust in technology, lack of health and technology literacy and fragmented IT laws should be addressed.
On the 9th of December 2016 DNV GL hosted its 4th healthcare workshop in the Norway House in Brussels, which focused on how to best adopt digitalisation, connectivity and sharing of data in healthcare systems. The discussions will contribute to DNV GL's White paper on Internet of People, to be released in February 2017.
About DNV GL Group Technology and Research:
The Group Technology and Research programme "Life Sciences" is committed to working with healthcare organisations to develop safe and sustainable digital ecosystems that empower individuals and communities to achieve lasting health for all.

Fire victim backs Tesla as Feds deepen probe
A Tennessee doctor says his electric sedan protected him from the object in the road
A Tennessee physician whose Tesla became the third to catch on fire after an accident says he stands by the car even as federal investigators say they are working with the electric car maker over the incidents.
Tesla posted an account of the accident on its website from the driver, which the automaker identifies as Juris Shibayama, whose car caught on fire near Smyrna, Tenn.
More: Tesla shares off 22% in three days
He writes out how was unable to swerve to avoid a trailer hitch in the highway, how it went underneath his Model S sedan and a fire resulted. And how he stands behind the Tesla.
"This experience does not in any way make me think that the Tesla Model S is an unsafe car. I would buy another one in a heartbeat," he writes in the post on Tesla's website.
But it's yet to be seen what federal investigators think. They are now taking a look at Tesla after this third incident. In the first, another driver struck an object that pieced the car's armored battery pack and started a fire. In the second case, a driver crashed his car and fled the scene. And now the Tennessee case.
NHTSA has issued its usual statement of a preliminary investigation. But it did issue a tougher statement Friday indicating that's its not just gathering details of the accident from authorities, but is in touch with the automaker directly.
"NHTSA is in close communication with Tesla and local authorities gathering information about the incident to determine if additional action is necessary," the statement said.
In the incident, Shibayama says he was driving home from work when he struck the hitch at about 70 miles per hour. He felt the thud, which was followed less than a minute later by a warning message: "Car needs service. Car may not restart."
Just hoping to reach home, he says he continued to drive but didn't get a lot farther. In another minute, up popped a message saying "Please pull over safely. Car is shutting down." He got over and soon smoke was pouring out from underneath, followed by the fire that destroyed the front half of the car.
Still, Shibayama says he is grateful he was driving a Tesla. "Had I not been in a Tesla, that object could have punched through the floor and caused me serious harm," he writes.
Tesla's stock took a drubbing last week following the report of the third fire and an earnings report that left some, but not all, disappointed. It lost nearly 22% over its value over three days, closing at $137.95 on Friday.

QX3 Time-Lapse Movie Gallery
Mifepristone (RU-486)
RU-486 is the code name for a new abortion drug that is now widely known as Mifepristone. This drug was developed in France and has been shown to be highly effective in inducing spontaneous abortion when administered in early pregnancy. Mifepristone has also been demonstrated to be highly effective as a post-coital contraceptive (morning after pill) when administered within 72 hours after unprotected intercourse. Additional studies have shown the drug has the potential for preventing implantation and inducing menstruation when administered in the last half of the menstrual cycle. When recrystallized from the melt, will slowly crystallize, forming beautiful spherulite crystals. The time-lapse movie was made using a modified version of the Intel Play QX3 microscope equipped for polarized light illumination with a full-wave (first order) retardation plate.

Courier-Express Ownership to Change
By: Press Release | Cribb, Greene & Associates
The Courier-Express/Tri-County Sunday and its sister weekly publications have been put up for sale by the parent company of the newspapers, Independent Publications Inc. of Bryn Mawr.
The McLean family, which has owned the area newspapers since 1989 and operated them as McLean Publishing Co., has decided that it no longer wishes to be in business, and is selling all of the IPI holdings, including newspapers and non-newspaper operations. The company's antecedents date back to 1895. Already sold are the firm's several Muzak franchises in Pennsylvania and other East Coast states, and the New Hampshire-based McLean Communications Inc., which publishes monthly and quarterly magazines and organizes consumer-oriented events.
Still up for sale are the Courier-Express/Tri-County Sunday of DuBois, the weekly Jeffersonian Democrat of Brookville and the weekly Leader-Vindicator in New Bethlehem; the Telegraph Publishing Co. of Nashua, N.H.; and operations in Florida. The transactions are being handled by Cribb, Greene & Associates of Charlottesville, Va.
"Our local newspapers have been consistently profitable and are on a solid footing," Denny Bonavita, editor/publisher of the newspapers, said. "This is not a going-out-of-business sale. The sale is being conducted because the owners wish to exit the business. We expect to continue to profitably provide the news of the day for a long while under new ownership."
Under the leadership of IPI founder William L. "Bill" McLean III, the Courier-Express was purchased in 1988, and the Jeffersonian Democrat in 1990. The Tri-County Sunday edition was started in 1993 and the company bought the Leader-Vindicator in 1998. Andrew T. Bickford is the current CEO of Independent Publications. Bill McLean died in 2011.
In addition to its newspapers, the company and family have been generous supporters of area philanthropic endeavors through its foundation, the McLean Contributionship, supporting libraries, historical projects, Scouting and other activities in the areas served by the local newspapers.

Cecilia, Stockholm, Sweden
I was taken over by peacefulness
After our session, something happened within me that I cannot explain nor would it even make sense to anyone. There was a part of me that felt my being been taken over by a real peacefulness that I've never encountered before. Sounds odd but it's the truth.
I felt nothing but peace during and since the session
It was a wonderful experience for me as I noticed a lot of new and different energies moving around in the body. I could feel much going on in my body… warm sensations moving through, new energies not previously experienced moving into place and then the muscles in that same area begin twitching, as if they are coming alive… I suspect that's exactly what they were doing.
Mike, Dallas, Texas, US
You will feel the energy
I WAS AMAZED and immediately scheduled another a few days later. When I felt the healing taking place it was so peaceful and literally relaxing. I started to see a remarkable transformation in my life. And it happened fast!!
I feel freer than I have in years
When I first started working with Maria, I knew right away she was something special. During the healing session I felt something shift in me. Almost immediately I started to feel lighter. I felt the old, limiting beliefs and stories release from my mind and I felt freer than I have in years.
Marie, Marbella, Spain
Maria is the real deal!
Maria is a powerful and gifted healer. I am really amazed at the results I'm experiencing. Immediately after the healing I felt much calmer, more balanced and more focused. She's the real deal!
M.C., Marbella, Spain
I cannot believe what you were able to achieve in one session
I find myself at a loss for words. All I can say to you is Thank You. This was unlike any healing session that I have ever been in and I say that from the bottom of my skeptical, over analytical heart who had literally tried every cure one could think of. I cannot recommend you enough to other people, you are a gift! Thank you!!!

A virus that has lain dormant while frozen in the arctic ice for tens of thousands of years has become infectious again, scientists have found.
The new virus was found in Siberian permafrost and belongs to a class of giant viruses that were discovered ten years ago.
Measuring 1.5 micrometers in length, the Pithovirus is the biggest that has ever been found. A micrometre is one millionth of a metre.
So-called "giant viruses" contain a large number of genes compared to common viruses such as influenza or Aids, which contain approximately ten genes.
In contrast to "regular" viruses, they can easily be easily seen under a microscope.
Researchers from the National Centre of Scientific Research (CNRS) at the University of Aix-Marseille in France, say that the Pithovirus has almost nothing in common with the giant viruses that have previously been observed.
That makes it the first member of a new virus family. They also found it infects amoebas, a single celled organism, but is not a threat to humans.
However, according to the researchers, the revival of the virus could mean there may be other threats to human or animal life hidden in the permafrost.
They added that new viruses could be exposed as global warming or industrial exploitation of the polar regions causes permafrost to thaw.
One of the authors of the study Professor Jean-Michel Claverie told the BBC: "It is a recipe for disaster. If you start having industrial explorations, people will start to move around the deep permafrost layers. Through mining and drilling, those old layers will be penetrated and this is where the danger is coming from."
Professor Claverie said that ancient strains of the smallpox virus could pose a risk in this way as its replication process is similar to thePithovirus.
The virus was found buried 100 feet underground in the Chukotka region of north-eastern Siberia
Scientists added some of the permafrost to amoeba colonies to see if it contained infectious material.
The amoebas began to die and scientists discovered that the virus was multiplying inside the amoeba cells before bursting them.
Professor Chantal Abergal, another of the study's authors said that the discovery could prove to be very important in the effort to eradicate diseases.
She said: The fact that we might catch a viral infection from a long-extinct Neanderthal individual is a good demonstration that the notion that a virus could be "eradicated" from the planet is plain wrong, and give us a false sense of security.
She added that the new virus could also help answer key questions about our planet:
"The discovery of yet another new family of giant viruses is a clear indication that we still know very little about the biodiversity on our planet, at least in unexplored environment."
"These giant viruses exhibit a very large proportion of genes without any resemblance with the millions that have been characterised in known organisms. Part of what we don't know might turn out to contain the explanation to fundamental questions such as the origin of life on our planet."

Penn State Beaver students continued their tradition of 'A Day On, Not a Day Off,' as they joined with students from other western Penn State campuses to conduct community services projects on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Monday, Jan. 16. The day is a holiday for Penn State students, but many of them will be working in outreach projects throughout the region.
Every year a variety of students from Penn State's western campuses come together to conduct outreach efforts in their local communities. This year's primary coordinating campus is Penn State New Kensington. Robin Schreck, coordinator of student activities and residence life, will take Beaver students to New Kensington to work with them in service projects there.
Additional Beaver campus students will work locally at community outreach centers, including Beaver County Habitat for Humanity; the Center for Hope in Ambridge which offers a food and clothing bank, literacy services, and life skills training; and Uncommon Grounds in Aliquippa which was established with support from Church Army U.S.A. and area Episcopalian churches. The group hopes to heal and reconnect with areas residents by offering food, conversation, church youth events, art exhibits, musical performances, and a variety of other activities, including a ministry that works with incarcerated women in Aliquippa.
For more information about the students' activities on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, contact Schreck at firstname.lastname@example.com or 724-773-3947, or visit www.beaver.psu.edu.

Systematic review yields evidence of cost-savings from CAMThe most critical piece of the puzzle needed for the uptake of more complementary and integrative practices into mainstream payment and delivery is quality evidence of cost-savings. Particularly in economic downturn, evidence of efficacy and even effectiveness are not enough.
So it was particularly intriguing to see a
presentation entitled "Systematic Review of Economic Evaluations: Can
CAM be Cost Saving?" at the August 19-22, 2009 convention of the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians (AANP).
The presentation was by a professional whose background is rare for a professional in any
healthcare field. The resume could be one-of-a-kind in integrative practice. Patricia Herman, ND, MS, PhD was a resource economist working for North American utilities on early green energy projects in her first profession before entering studies to become a licensed naturopathic physician. Herman subsequently completed two research fellowships on CAM economics funded by the NIH National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine.
Patricia Herman, ND, MS, PhD - economist, researcher, practitionerHerman's work has become increasingly visible, and respected, this year.
With Kenneth Pelletier, PhD, MD(hc), and others Herman co-authored the paper on the economics of integrative medicine for
the Institute of Medicine Summit. Attendees at the May 2009 North American Research Conference on
Complementary and Integrative Medicine heard her work called out and
honored from the podium of the final plenary session by economist and keynoter Dean Jamison, PhD. She offered economic insights as a participant on three panels and posters at the conference.
Characteristics of the search and review
Herman, who has previously reviewed evidence of CAM costs but not from this broad and inclusive a set of studies, independently took on this exhaustive review as part of a paper in preparation with Harvard Medical School's David Eisenberg, MD. Her review included 34 search terms for CAM and 16 search terms for economics. She explored all available years in 6 databases. The searches yielded roughly 8000 references, which Herman is painstakingly examining. When completed the work will be be definitive for the field. Herman plans to continue updating it.
At the AANP, Herman reported completed analysis of 6600 of these articles, a work 82% complete. From these she found 256 CAM economic evaluations, 185 of which were published in the last 10 years. Herman caveated her presentation by underscoring that the findings remain preliminary in two ways. She has not only not completed the review, she hasn't yet satisfied herself with enough of a detailed review of some studies.

This could be the worst moment in our lifetimes to discover that American Christians give away relatively little of their money.
The economy is in the midst of the worst downturn in at least 17 years and the most serious U.S. banking crisis in at least 20. It has the potential to be as painful as the Great Depression. Banks are failing. Workers are losing their jobs. Homeowners are losing their homes.
But this may actually be the best time for an emerging study that delivers the bad news. Over the next few months or years, as our economy travels down a long road of recovery, our neighbors may need much more assistance than we've grown accustomed to providing. And like skyrocketing home prices, the lack of generosity among American Christians is a trend that cannot continue without doing serious harm.
More than one out of four American Protestants give away no money at all—"not even a token $5 per year," say sociologists Christian Smith, Michael Emerson, and Patricia Snell in a new study on Christian giving, Passing the Plate (Oxford University Press).
Of all Christian groups, evangelical Protestants score best: only 10 percent give nothing away. Evangelicals tend to be the most generous, but they do not outperform their peers enough to wear a badge of honor. Thirty-six percent report that they give away less than two percent of their income. Only about 27 percent tithe.
Economists sometimes view recessions as necessary purgings of excessive behavior, correcting irrational investments in stocks in the 1920s or tulips in 17th-century Holland. Perhaps the current correction, as families learn to live on less and depend on each other more, will make American Christians more generous. It would be a correction long overdue.1

In 1904, George G. Marvin arrived in tiny Warroad, Minnesota, to take a job managing a grain elevator. The area was a booming lumber center, providing pulpwood for paper mills. Recognizing an opportunity, George Marvin established the Marvin Lumber & Cedar Company in 1912.
Honest and hard-working, George earned respect across the northern woodlands. He believed in the sanctity of a handshake and often loaned money to farmers and lumbermen who needed to get through the winter when work was scarce. The only record of the transaction would be a penciled note in George's black pocket notebook. The need for year-round employment in sparsely populated northern Minnesota would become a recurring theme in the Marvin company history.
During the Depression, George Marvin quietly helped his community. He provided Christmas trees for every family in Warroad. He delivered 100-pound bags of flour to needy families. One year, when crops were poor and farm families were near starvation, George arranged for each family to sell a truckload of pulpwood to a local paper company.
Years after the Depression ended, stories began quietly circulating about George Marvin's most magnificent gesture to his neighbors – one he never sought to take credit for during his lifetime.
A local bank had failed. All the farm mortgages would come due immediately. Without the cash to pay off their mortgages, dozens of farmers would lose their land. George bought the bank, held the mortgages and the farmers paid him back over time.
But George Marvin also was a shrewd businessman. Seeking a way to keep his lumberyard workers busy during the slow winter months, he designed a machine that turned scrap lumber into wooden stakes. Marvin sold the stakes to the state highway department.
George Marvin set an example of hard work, ingenuity and integrity. But it was his oldest son who would provide the visionary leadership that transformed Marvin into a world leader in the building industry.
William S. "Bill" Marvin graduated from the University of Minnesota in 1939 and set his sights on a career in agribusiness. Months later, he got a call from his father: Come home. I need you to help me. And so Bill Marvin returned to Warroad as the Marvin company's eighth employee. He'd spend the rest of his long life in Warroad, but his vision extended much further.
Soon after Bill joined the company, a lumberyard employee suggested making door frames and barn sashes – once again, in an attempt to keep workers busy over the winter. The company bought a saw and began its first venture in the window business. But with the outbreak of World War II, Marvin turned its attention to making ammunition boxes and other supplies under military contracts.
When the war ended, Bill Marvin realized that returning veterans needed jobs. If they couldn't find jobs in Warroad, they'd have to move elsewhere. So, over his father's objections, Bill Marvin invested in top-line woodworking machinery and launched what we now know as Marvin Windows and Doors.
During the 1950s, Marvin's small sales force criss-crossed the Upper Midwest in Chevrolet station wagons, signing up independent local dealers to distribute Marvin windows. During this time, the company introduced a number of innovative new windows that boosted sales dramatically.
By the 1960s, Marvin had its own fleet of trucks and had added patio doors to its product line. Marvin also began advertising and marketing aggressively, promoting its unique capacity to build any window a customer wanted. Today, that continues with our "Built around you®" promise.
As the decades rolled by, Marvin grew: from a few dozen employees in the 1950s, to a few hundred in the 1960s, to more than 4,000 today. Bill immersed his six children in the business from early childhood. They all remember going to the factory with Dad on weekend afternoons, sweeping floors and emptying wastebaskets. Every one of those six children joined the business and has made significant contributions to the company's continued growth.
Bill Marvin famously kept a close watch on everything in the company, but also he knew it couldn't thrive without the best ideas from everyone. He believed in giving people the opportunity to succeed. "I don't have to be the smartest at everything," he said. "I just have to find the people who are." When someone struggled, Bill would say, "That's not a bad employee. We just need to find the right spot for them."
BUILDER magazine named Bill Marvin one of the 100 most influential people of the 20th century building industry – a richly deserved recognition. Bill Marvin died in 2009 at age 92, but his energy, and enlightened management practices live on in the company he led for 40 years.
George G. Marvin arrived in Warroad, small northern Minnesota town near the Canadian border. He managed a grain elevator and lumberyard. He spent the next 70 years building a business that became a cornerstone of the Warroad community.
Percy Roberts and George Marvin established Roberts & Marvin Lumber Co.
The Marvin Timber & Cedar Company was established. The name was changed a few months later to Marvin Lumber & Cedar Company.
The Marvin Lumber & Cedar Company was incorporated just eight years after is was formed. George G. Marvin was president and his brother, Wm. C. Marvin was vice president.
No layoffs during the Great Depression. Marvin Lumber & Cedar Company had its first year with a loss, but was fortunate to offer continuous employment without layoffs during America's Great Depression.
Bill Marvin
Harry York
George's son Wm. S. "Bill" Marvin joined the company as the eighth employee.
That year, in an attempt to keep the company busy during the quiet winter months, lumberyard manager Harry York requested a new saw for making barn sash and door frames.
In the 1940s, to help with the war effort during World War II, the staff is increased to nearly 50 and Marvin manufactured ammunition boxes and food containers to fulfill a government contract.
The Marvin brothers in 1942: Jack, Bill, Tut, Frank and Cal.

Bill Marvin took over as company president.
Marvin expanded their sales territory outside the Midwest.
Fire struck again! George G. Marvin watched as fire destroyed the plant, machinery and a warehouse full of finished products. Volunteers worked to contain the massive fire as the it grew hot enough to melt glass.
Relocation offers were made, but the Marvin family remained committed to the Warroad community. "The company will rebuild in Warroad" Bill promised, "We will get back in production... just as soon as it is humanly possible... buying or borrowing machinery where we can."
Key employees remained on directly after the first and additional men were hired as equipment was secured to produce basement window units.
In March of 1962, a new 100,000 square-foot factory opened for production. A grand opening celebration was held on June 27th, a year to the day after the fire. With subsequent additions, that factory is now 2 million square feet.
Marvin began making patio doors
A decade of dramatic growth. Sales soared and employment grew to about 950 workers.

New York Times reporter Andrew Martin spent three days in Marvin's hometown of Warroad, Minn., talking with company leaders and townspeople. He wanted to look at how a mid-sized company was navigating through the economic downturn – weathering tough times without laying off employees. "Our most significant accomplishment was that we lived our mission in the most challenging of times" - Susan Marvin
In a much-anticipated speech on the American economy, President Barack Obama discussed Marvin Windows and Doors, using the company's story as the emotional climax of the address that commentators agreed set the terms of economic policy discussion throughout his 2012 election campaign. Obama held up Marvin as an example to the nation. Telling how Marvin refused to lay off workers even as competitors made deep cuts, he said, "That's how America was built. That's why we're the greatest nation on Earth. That's what our greatest companies understand."
Marvin was honored with the American Business Ethics Award and the Minnesota Business Ethics Award.
The third and fourth generations of the Marvin family are deeply involved in all the facets of the company, from executive leadership to the factory floor.

Marvin's record of innovation goes back to the very earliest days of the company. In fact, we got into the window business after a worker at the Marvin lumber yard suggested making barn window sashes and door frames as a way to keep employees busy during the slow winter months. Longtime Marvin employees tell stories of rigging their own machinery out of truck parts and farm equipment. If nobody made the equipment they needed for a specific task, they'd build it themselves.
Since then, we've consistently been an industry leader in developing innovative new products as well as innovative ways to better serve our customers. Innovation is in our blood. We work as a team to develop new solutions for products and services.
Marvin's products, features and designs are covered by one or more of the following patents or pending patent applications:

Anybody still out there?
"Yeah. I think she knows me. Or at least I think she thinks she knows me. Or thinks she knew me. Or something like that." Just for the record, I'm never flustered. It's not like this is the first time I've had a kid. It's not like this is the first time I've found out some time after the fact that I've had a kid. This is, however, the first time I've been inexplicably drawn to a diner in the middle of Monkey's Nut, TX while en route to find my estranged wife of some innumerable number of centuries only to be confronted with the unmistakable evidence of a past indiscretion. So I might have been a little more rattle-prone than normal.
"Well, how does she know you? 'Cause I don't know you, and it ain't like this is that big a town, and really, I'd remember anybody as close to my age as you who looks like you if you'd come through any time recent."
Yeah, that whole immortality thing? I look like I'm about 28. Forever. It has its advantages, like never having to worry about Grecian formula, but one of the drawbacks is that if you see the same person with a ridiculous amount of time between visits, you look the same as the last time they saw you. This becomes somewhat inconvenient when you'd rather the mother of your most recent offspring not drop a cup of coffee into the middle of the floor upon your arrival.
"It's a long story. Look, here's a buck for the coffee. I gotta roll." And I stood up to head for the door. Except, of course, there was a problem with that. There's always a problem. I mean, I understand the need for some dramatic conflict, but seriously, the last guy to write about me was Moses, can't I give up a little on the conflict by now?
Myra had made it back into the diner and was headed my way, an inscrutable look on her face. It was almost a cliché, the way she ran into my arms, grabbed me by the back of the neck and kissed me like she was checking for recent dental work. Then, after she held me like there was no tomorrow, she pulled back, hands on my elbows, and hauled off and slapped the ever-loving shit outta me. I saw it coming, figured it was coming from the moment she dropped the coffee cup, really, but didn't bother trying to stop it. I just took it, and let me tell you, a woman who's spent a couple decades slinging hash at a roadside diner in Texas knows how to lay one on a guy.
"I deserved that." I said, whipping a little trickle of blood from my lips. Yes, we can bleed. We can be hurt, we just don't die from it. You don't want to know exactly how exhaustive some of our testing of that fact has been. The details are a little disturbing, and the memories of those times a little embarrassing.
"You're goddamned right you did," Myra said, drawing back to lay another on me as I turned the other cheek. I didn't turn the other cheek out of some retarded sense of pacifism, that's just what naturally happens when somebody slaps the piss out of you, you turn the other cheek. I caught her hand before the blow landed, and did the only thing I thought might defuse the situation: I kissed her.
In retrospect, kissing Myra in her heightened state of emotion only had about a one in three shot of ending the violence, but it was a better shot than anything else had, and I really didn't want to get physical with her. Not just because I don't like hitting women, but also because the cook had come out of the kitchen to watch the floor show, and he looked like he could cause some serious damage if so inclined.
So I kissed her, and I poured everything I had into the kiss. It's not like I have any supernatural abilities, other than immortality and a little bit of extra-sensory perception where Eve and Lucky are concerned, but after a couple of eons you pick up a few things. And since I spent most of the 15th century in France, I learned from some of the best.
When I felt the iron melt out of her spine, I stopped kissing her, looked into her eyes, and said "We should talk. Outside. All three of us." And I led her to the door, Emily in tow. We walked out of the diner, around the side of the building to a couple of concrete picnic tables that I remembered from my last trip where the crew took their smoke breaks, and I sat Myra down. Emily sat next to her, and I sat on the table cross-legged facing them.
"So, I guess I have a little explaining to do," I started, trying to figure out how I was going to get part of the story out without telling them the whole thing, when something new happened.
Now let me interject something here. This was something new. That's a big deal. I hadn't really been surprised by anything that happened in the world since Alexander made his great sweeps across the world. And that was just more me being impressed by his audacity and drive than actual surprise. But what happened next had never happened to me before, at least not since we left the Garden.
"You do indeed, Adam. You do indeed. And I think both of these young ladies deserve to know the truth. The whole truth, as they say." The voice came from behind me, and I knew it instantly. It was Michael, the first unfallen angel I'd seen in the flesh since we left the Garden, and he did not look happy to see me.

In 2011 Ostafyevo (UUMO) hosted the newly created Aviation Training Center (TC) of Gazpromavia designed for the training of pilots and equipped with modern automatic training systems (ATS) which make it possible for crews to conduct continuous self-training with the use of Internet resources. The TC comprises a new simulator complex for training crews of Gazpromavia and other companies.
The international experience in the training of aviation personnel confirms high importance of using aviation training centers equipped with modern simulators for training and maintaining the airworthiness of crews, and for securing safe and accident-free flights. Besides, one of the top priority issues on the current agenda of Gazpromavia is the insuring of both maximum economic efficiency of air transport and high level of flight safety, and the improvement of the crews training system is a way to resolve the issue.
The introduction of the new simulator complex is also a part of Gazpromavia's preparation for aviation support of JSC GAZPROM large scale programs ever growing more and more complicated and related to the development of fields at the Yamal peninsula, the arctic seas shelf and the Eastern Siberia, with their specific geoclimatic zones.
The TC setup includes the installation of Mi-8 MTV, Mi-8 T, Mi-171 D-level complex simulators and FNPT class cockpit procedure trainers. Gazpromavia has obtained, from the Federal Air Transport Agency, authorizations No. 01.01-1391 dated November 17, 2011 to operate pilot training simulators of Mi-8 T, Mi-8 MTV, Mi-8 AMT developed by specialists from St. Petersburg. The simulators are equipped with acceleration effects imitators and comply with the D-category under the international classification. Some characteristics of the simulators, unrivaled in Russia, exceed those of their analogs at the European aviation centers.
The simulators will provide for the following training programs:
- all levels of crews training, including: initial piloting training; practice and maintenance of piloting skills under the standard equipment functioning mode during flights in normal and adverse weather; practice of aircraft systems operating skills; crew resource management; navigation tasks engagement; practice of actions in cases of equipment failures, irregular or emergency situations; visual reference; examination of ergonomics of the systems installed, i. a. during reconfiguration; analysis of human factor impact on the accurateness and the efficiency of procedures performed;
- conversion training from another type of aircraft;
- recurrent quarterly training;
- seasonal training;
- qualification renewal after a pause in flight work;
- prolongation of flight certificate.
Today there are no other training centers of such level in Russia.

- abstract
The market for retail financial products (e.g. investment funds or insurances) is marred by information asymmetries. Clients are not well informed about the quality of these products. They have to rely on the recommendations of advisors. Incentives of advisors and clients may not be aligned, when fees are used by financial institutions to steer advice. We experimentally investigate whether voluntary contract components can reduce the conflict of interest and increase truth telling of advisors. We compare a voluntary payment upfront, an obligatory payment upfront, a voluntary bonus afterwards, and a three-stage design with a voluntary payment upfront and a bonus after. Across treatments, there is significantly more truthful advice when both clients and advisors have opportunities to reciprocate. Within treatments, the frequency of truthful advice is significantly higher when the voluntary payment is large.

UPDATED: Pelosi was right: Economists say unemployment insurance stimulates the economy
Right-wing media have attacked House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for her statement that unemployment insurance stimulates the economy and creates jobs, calling her remarks "laughable" and "lunacy." In fact, economists agree that extending unemployment insurance has a strong stimulative effect on GDP and employment during a recession.
Pelosi: Unemployment insurance "injects demand into the economy," "is a job creator"
From Pelosi's July 1 news conference: (accessed via Nexis)
PELOSI: When the economy turns down, there is a compact that we have that there is unemployment insurance for those who, through no fault of their own, lose their job, and we owe them that. It is a safety net, not just for those individuals but for our whole system, our whole system. It goes in cycles.
I think we further have to address the fact that we need to create many, many more jobs so that people's economic existence is not so dependent on cycles.
Now, let me say about unemployment insurance, we talk about it as a safety net and the rest. This is one of the biggest stimuluses to our economy. Economists will tell you this money is spent quickly. It injects demand into the economy, and is job creating. It creates jobs faster than almost any other initiative you can name because, again, it is money that is needed for families to survive, and it is spent. So it has a double benefit. It helps those who have lost their jobs, but it also is a job creator. And for that reason, for those two reasons, at least, it should be passed, and I am optimistic that it will.
It is impossible to think of a situation where we would have a country that would say we are not going to have unemployment benefits and that the only people who want them are people who don't want jobs. That is just so contrary to what our country is about, and I reject that misrepresentation of the motivation for people to be on unemployment insurance.
Right-wing media incredulous that Pelosi said unemployment benefits create jobs
Hot Air: Pelosi's statements were "laughable" and "provably incorrect." In a July 2 post [1], blogger Ed Morrissey wrote that "the laughable notion from Nancy Pelosi that jobless benefits provide the biggest possible stimulus to the economy that Congress can create" is "both ridiculous and provably incorrect."
Powers: "Lunacy of this magnitude is known as a 'cry for help.' " In a July 1 post [2] on Michelle Malkin's blog, guest blogger Doug Powers wrote that Pelosi "is around the bend even more than usual these days." Powers posted some of Pelosi's comments, then wrote: "In the real world, demonstrating lunacy of this magnitude is known as a 'cry for help' and an intervention involving large nets, straight-jackets and electric shock therapy is in order. But not in Washington, DC, where free-range crazies are allowed to pick pockets, loot futures, and all too often get re-elected."
Fox & Friends doesn't understand the "logic" behind Pelosi's statement that unemployment benefits are stimulative. On the July 2 edition [3] of Fox News' Fox & Friends, co-host Alisyn Camerota, before playing Pelosi's comments, called them "curious" and said it was "hard to parse the logic" of them." After playing the clip, co-host Clayton Morris said, "I would love to know what economists say that." Camerota focused on Pelosi's statement that unemployment benefits are a "job creator" and asked, "How is it a job creator?" Co-host Dave Briggs said there were a "few holes in that logic to say the least."
Gateway Pundit: "This may help explain why the national unemployment rate went from 4.6% to 9.7%." Jim Hoft, on Gateway Pundit, wrote [4] of Pelosi's remarks: "This may help explain why the national unemployment rate went from 4.6% to 9.7% since she took over as Speaker of the House."
Freddoso: "If only we had higher unemployment -- then we could create even more jobs!" In a July 1 Washington Examiner op-ed, David Freddoso wrote: [5] "I hear Nancy Pelosi speak, and all around me I can envision a bustling service sector sprouting up, creating new jobs to serve all of the Americans who are receiving their $425/week in unemployment benefits." He added, "If only we had higher unemployment -- then we could create even more jobs!"
LVRJ's Frederick: "What? Unemployment checks create jobs?" In a July 1 Las Vegas Review-Journal blog post [6], Sherman Frederick posted video of Pelosi's comments and wrote: "If you have half a brain and have not drunk the Obama/Pelosi/Reid Kool-Aid you'll need to view this clip to believe it."
Easton mocks Pelosi's comments as "an interesting look at economic policy." During the July 4 edition [7] of Fox News Sunday, asked whether Pelosi's statements were accurate, Fortune Washington bureau chief Nina Easton said, "Well, that was an interesting look at economic policy. No." She then laughed.
Economists agree that unemployment insurance has strong stimulative effect on GDP, employment
CBO scores "increasing aid to the unemployed" as the highest-scoring policy proposal to stimulate economy. In a January 14 report [8] on "Policies for Increasing Economic Growth and Employment in 2010 and 2011," the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) stated:
Policies that could be implemented relatively quickly or targeted toward people whose consumption tends to be restricted by their income, such as reducing payroll taxes for firms that increase payroll or increasing aid to the unemployed, would have the largest effects on output and employment per dollar of budgetary cost in 2010 and 2011.
According to a table [9] in the report, CBO estimated that increasing aid to the unemployed would have the greatest effects on GDP per dollar of budgetary cost and the second highest cumulative effect on employment of the policy options considered.
Elmendorf: Policies such as unemployment insurance "have a significant impact on GDP." In January 2009, CBO director Douglas Elmendorf testified [10]:
Transfers to persons (for example, unemployment insurance and nutrition assistance) would also have a significant impact on GDP. Because a large amount of such spending can occur quickly, transfers would have a significant impact on GDP by early 2010. Transfers also include refundable tax credits, which have an impact similar to that of a temporary tax cut.
A dollar's worth of a temporary tax cut would have a smaller effect on GDP than a dollar's worth of direct purchases or transfers, because a significant share of the tax cut would probably be saved. The nonbusiness tax cuts in H.R. 1 would reduce revenues much more in calendar year 2010 than in calendar year 2009 because much of the reduction in taxes would be realized by households when they filed their returns in 2010.
Zandi estimated that extending unemployment insurance benefits provides significant stimulus. In his July 24, 2008, House testimony, [11] Mark Zandi, Moody's Economy.com chief economist and a former adviser [12] to John McCain, rated "Fiscal Economic Bank for the Buck," defined as "One year $ change in real GDP for a given $ reduction in federal tax revenue or increase in spending." "Extending UI Benefits" was the second-highest of 13 policy options, behind "Temporary Increase in Food Stamps." The Economic Policy Institute [13] created the following graphic based on Zandi's figures:
Center on Budget and Policy Priorities: "The money gets spent fast and its effects spread through the economy." From an April 16 Center on Budget and Policy Priorities document [14]:
Temporary increases in unemployment insurance benefits score high in "bang-for-the-buck" calculations of their economic impact as stimulus. The money gets spent fast and its effects spread through the economy. As a result of such policies, local businesses are less apt to lay off workers and cut back on orders from their suppliers during a downturn; and in the early stages of a recovery, they are more apt to hire additional workers and step up their orders. Policymakers have always ended these emergency UI benefits once a strong and sustainable economic recovery is underway.
Joseph Stiglitz: Stimulus "should begin by strengthening the unemployment insurance system." In a January 23, 2008, op-ed [15], Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz wrote that "America's economy is headed for a major slowdown" and that "[t]he country needs stimulus." Proceeding to describe the "optimal package," Stiglitz recommended: "We should begin by strengthening the unemployment insurance system, because money received by the unemployed would be spent immediately."
Blinder: "Extending unemployment benefits is one of the best forms of stimulus we know." On July 2, NPR reported [16] that former vice chairman of the Federal Reserve and Clinton economic adviser Alan Blinder "supports the effort to extend expiring unemployment benefits." NPR quoted Blinder as saying: "Extending unemployment benefits is one of the best forms of stimulus we know."
Martire: Stimulus from unemployment benefits "greater than any other fiscal action government can take." In a June 30 piece in the State Journal-Register of Springfield, Illinois, Center for Tax and Budget Accountability Executive Director Ralph Martire wrote [17]:
As for the contention that extending UI encourages people to avoid finding jobs so they can stay on the public dole -- well, it's just plain goofy. In May 2010, the private sector created only 41,000 jobs. That's 72,000 less than what's needed to keep up with the demand generated by natural work-force growth, much less creating the positions needed for the unemployed to find work. No one's thumbing a nose at getting hired to live in luxury eating government cheese -- there simply are no private sector jobs available.
Perhaps the hawks have forgotten that consumer spending accounts for more than two-thirds of the nation's economy. The best consumers are low- and middle-income folks, who don't earn enough to save, so they spend their paychecks. That is, when they have paychecks. See, if they've lost their jobs and the private sector isn't creating jobs and the feds cut off unemployment benefits, their ability to spend drops to, well, nil. Which is why the amount of private sector economic activity stimulated by unemployment benefits is greater than any other fiscal action government can take. In fact, dollar-for-dollar, it's five times more stimulative than the Bush tax cuts.
Sure, the long-term deficit has to be dealt with -- but honestly and responsibly. Short-term, deficit spending -- particularly on things like unemployment insurance, food stamps, housing assistance and the like -- is creating jobs and saving the U.S. economy from disaster.
EPI's Mishel explains why unemployment insurance is "such good stimulus." In a June 10 hearing before the House Ways and Means Income Security and Family Support Subcommittee, the Economic Policy Institute's Lawrence Mishel testifed [18]:
As I have explained, the only real option for increasing economic activity and consumer demand for goods and services is federal government intervention in the economy, specifically through more deficit spending. The safety net programs are a vital part of this picture.
The reason extending unemployment insurance is such good stimulus is that it gets money to people who are the most likely to have depleted their savings and thus tend to have no choice but to quickly spend essentially every dollar they receive on necessities found in their local economy. In other words, virtually every dollar spent on extending unemployment insurance benefits goes directly, and immediately, toward the purchase of local goods and services, providing an extremely efficient demand boost. Not only is extending and expanding UI benefits the right thing to do for the people hurt most by this economic downturn, it is also excellent economic policy.
CEPR's Schmitt: Unemployment insurance helps "sustain a community." In an April 28 article [19], McClatchy Newspapers reported:
And allowing workers to fall off the unemployment insurance rolls can have negative ripple effects, said John Schmitt, senior economist with the Center for Economic and Policy Research.
"It hits individuals hard, but it also hits their communities, and more broadly the country," Schmitt said. "Having unemployment insurance benefits can help sustain a community through a very difficult time."
Fox correspondent agreed with Pelosi that in economic downturn, unemployment insurance "is a job creator"
Garrett: Unemployment insurance is "a job creator when there are no other job creators out there." In a later segment on Fox & Friends, Camerota asked Fox News senior White House correspondent Major Garrett, "[Pelosi]'s basically saying it injects cash into the economy. That is true. But it's a job creator?" Garrett responded:
GARRETT: It's a job creator when there are no other job creators out there. ... When you have a climate where pervasive attitude among potential job hirers, meaning employers, is that we're just going to hold pat, then you really have nothing else to do to fuel the economy other than provide stimulus. And if you give cash to unemployed workers, at least that's cash they can spend in their local economy. So from that limited perspective, if you have no other alternatives and no one is hiring, or hiring is very, very low or slack, then unemployment benefits do provide ready cash at the local merchants to keep those businesses afloat.
