New Zealand at first welcomed the "atomic age", but radioactive fallout changed all that.
This month marks 25 years since New Zealand legislated a nuclear-free zone that prohibited nuclear weapons and warships in the country's land, air and water. Although we never considered having nuclear weapons, New Zealand was once as excited as any nation about the dawning atomic age, with our own plans for uranium mines and nuclear power stations. After the American bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki contributed to the end of World War II, our Government revealed the role of a small group of New Zealand physicists on the Manhattan Project that developed the atom bomb. New Zealand, it said, should be "proud to know that some of her scientists… were at the forefront of this latest development". Although the subsequent development of more bombs – the US began nuclear tests at Bikini Atoll in 1946 and the USSR tested its first nuclear bombs in 1949 – was greeted by the Listener then as "deeply depressing", the promised "peaceful uses" of atomic energy were seen as positive.
When the UK wanted heavy water to use as a moderator in its nuclear power plants, it made an agreement with New Zealand to produce heavy water using geothermal energy from Wairakei. Prime Minister Sidney Holland said New Zealand would be making a "worthwhile and unique contribution not only to its own power resources, but also to the development of atomic energy, which, used for peaceful purposes, may well revolutionise the world's industrial processes". When uranium was found in the Buller Gorge in 1955, it was greeted as heralding a potential new export industry and a way to make nuclear power more affordable for New Zealand. It wasn't anti-nuclear sentiment that led to the abandonment in 1979 of the Government-supported exploration and prospecting, after 24 years, but economics. The uranium was there, but not in sufficient quantities or concentrations to make extraction worthwhile.
An agreement New Zealand signed with the US in 1956 allowed for the provision of a half-price research reactor, along with uranium fuel to power it, but by the time the DSIR was ready for the reactor, the "half-price" offer had been withdrawn, and we were unwilling to pay full price. In the end, our only nuclear reactor – a gift under the US Atoms for Peace programme – was installed at the University of Canterbury's School of Engineering in 1961. The sub-critical reactor – it had no critical mass of fuel to produce a chain reaction – was removed in 1981 after the university phased out its nuclear engineering course. In the 1950s and 60s, New Zealanders had become aware of the health risks posed by fallout from bomb testing, and the public began to be wary of the dangers posed, for example, by strontium contamination of milk: New Zealand's welcome to the "atomic age" was radioactive fallout.
So by 1975, when New Zealand needed to make a decision on whether to meet the growing demand for electricity with a planned nuclear power station on the Kaipara Harbour, the promised atomic age had lost its allure. The Listener's Boyce Richardson described nuclear reactors as now symbolising "an impersonal future world of computers, robots, explosive violence and uncontrollable technology, rather than the cornucopia overflowing with goods and pleasures that they once promised". Opposition to nuclear testing in the Pacific had spread to nuclear power and most of the submissions to the Royal Commission of Inquiry into Nuclear Power Generation in New Zealand were opposed. Even so, it was economics more than anti-nuclear sentiment that led to New Zealand's rejection of nuclear power – the discovery of the Maui natural gas field in offshore Taranaki meant the country now had sufficient indigenous resources to meet electricity needs until the end of the century.

Amazing Grace has been receiving some very nice reviews. Here are two that I just found on the internet. Both reviewers awarded me 4 stars for my short story.
Amazing Grace
Author: Ginger Simpson
From the first moment Grace had met Blake, she knew she had found the man she was destined to spend her life with. Ginger Simpson tells the story of Grace Arbon and her hidden love in 'Amazing Grace.' Blake, a blue-collar construction worker, falls short in the eyes of Grace's father, but after a near fatal car accident, time is pressed to find a donor for her father. Grace leans to Blake for emotional support, as her father's chances are slipping, but finds he gives much more.
This is a sweet story of a young woman who finds romance away from her father's social preference, Grace's character show what most women would do for love. Simpson does take her readers through a short roller-coaster ride. This is well written overall, with the ending predictable. This is one of the stories that a reader will prefer the ending. It is a nice read with the characters introduced well. The plot would have developed more if there were more events taking place. Regardless, it is a good read and I would keep my eye out on this author.

Amazing Grace follows the lovely tale of a young woman named Grace who is trying to appease her father. Unfortunately, Grace has not had any luck appeasing her father with the men she has brought home until she meets the handsome Blake Hastings. Grace and Blake fall head over heals in love. Will it last or will Grace's father interfere?
I really enjoyed this story. It was heartwarming and a beautiful tale of love and where it can take you.
A noise drew her attention to the front window. She watched an old, faded pick-up truck sputter up the driveway. A spiral of smoke followed it but dissipated when the vehicle stopped on the circle in front of the house. "Blake's here. I won't be late." She smoothed her dress and waited for the knock.
Her father stood and peeked through the curtain behind his chair, then shook his head. "I can't believe you want to be seen in that…that horrid excuse for transportation. At least let me have Maynard bring the Mercedes around. He can drive you."
She squared her shoulders. "Daddy, please. Lower your voice, and be polite. Maynard's services are not necessary."
Her heart warmed when she opened the door and found Blake standing on the doorstep. Dressed in nice slacks, a powder blue shirt with a logo drawing attention to his broad chest, and shoes so shiny she saw her reflection, he projected a persona of which anyone would be proud. But Daddy? Her first instinct was to take Blake's arm and dash to the truck, but she smiled and opened the door wider.
"Won't you come in?"

Troiles and Cressida
by William Shakespeare (1609)
Act 3 Scene 2
Cressida - Female, Under 25 yrs
Scene partner - Troiles
Monologue - Comedic, Under 1:00 min
Hard to seem won: but I was won, my lord,
With the first glance that ever--pardon me--
If I confess much, you will play the tyrant.
I love you now; but not, till now, so much
But I might master it: in faith, I lie;
My thoughts were like unbridled children, grown
Too headstrong for their mother. See, we fools!
Why have I blabb'd? who shall be true to us,
When we are so unsecret to ourselves?
But, though I loved you well, I woo'd you not;
And yet, good faith, I wish'd myself a man,
Or that we women had men's privilege
Of speaking first. Sweet, bid me hold my tongue,
For in this rapture I shall surely speak
The thing I shall repent. See, see, your silence,
Cunning in dumbness, from my weakness draws
My very soul of counsel! stop my mouth.

In this session, we take a look at Prooph from a high level and look at how we'll start working with Prooph Event Store v8.
This turned into a higher-level overview of CQRS and Event Sourcing so it is a great intro for the project. It would also be a decent introduction to Event Sourcing and CQRS with PHP in general.
Unfortunately, I misspoke a few times. D'oh! CQRS stands for "Command Query Responsibility Segregation" and "CQ" isn't write and "RS" isn't read. I do know this stuff, I promise. :)
Prooph provides enterprise-ready CQRS and Event Sourcing packages for PHP. In this series, we'll take a look at building an application from scratch using various Prooph components including Prooph Event Store v8.

The Raiders used a third-round pick today in the NFL's supplemental draft to select former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor. The Raiders announced that they used the 18th selection of the round for Pryor. Oakland forfeits its third-round selection in the 2012 draft. No other players were chosen.
Pryor will not be eligible to practice with or play for Oakland during the regular season until the team's sixth game. Last week, when he was allowed to enter today's draft, he was given a five-game suspension by Commissioner Roger Goodell – the same number of games he would have sat out had he returned to the Buckeyes. Pryor has said he will not appeal the suspension. Terrelle gave up his last season with Ohio State after an embarrassing investigation into the teams memorabilia-for-cash scandal that basically forced ex-coach Jim Tressel out of his job with the Buckeyes.
His selection by the Raiders is not surprising. Oakland often makes bold moves in the draft because owner Al Davis covets size and speed. Pryor ran a 4.36 in the 40 during his workout for 17 NFL teams Saturday. At 6-foot-5 and 232 pounds, Pryor is very mobile. As a junior, hehad his best season statistically, throwing for 2,772 yards and 27 touchdowns with 11 interceptions. He also ran for 754 yards and four scores while helping the Buckeyes win the Sugar Bowl. No real comment has been made about his immediate role with the team, but it is possible that Pryor will battle for a back-up job with newly acquired Kyle Boller and Trent Edwards.

Our first Bambisanani teacher!
Cardinal are a long-standing supporter of the Bambisanani Partnership, an international project that brings together school children in the UK and South Africa, using sport as a catalyst to foster mutual understanding and to develop qualities of leadership and vision in the younger generation. You can read more about the partnership here – https://www.bambisananipartnership.org/
We are proud to announce that Simphiwe Ndlovu has now successfully completed his teaching degree in South Africa. Below is an extract from David Geldart, Founder of the Bamisinani Partnership.
"Considering where he started from (as an orphan at Mnyakanya) this achievement is absolutely amazing. He is a remarkable young man who deserves his success. His 'dream' together with his dedication, perseverance and determination are an example to us all. These are the qualities that really make a difference in life and he has proved it. The odds of him achieving this were minuscule but that didn't deter him at any point. He is an inspiration and his remarkable story deserves to be told."
Well done, Simphiwe!

Sponsoring of the 4th of July celebration by AIC Geneva
We sponsored the 4th of July celebration event organised yearly by the American International Club of Geneva.
We did so by setting-up a 3D scanning booth, inviting guests to get scanned in order to then print out a color 3D portrait print.
We received considerable attention and printed out several portraits using our brand new color 3D printer, the ProJet 460+ by 3D systems. If you're interested in a similar portrait, do not hesitate to get in touch directly!
The American International Club is a community of English-speaking people living around Geneva who are enriched by diverse backgrounds and interests, and connected by a common language. Originating over sixty years ago, the AIC has evolved into a rich multicultural organization with members representing 55 countries.

With the help of Fit Body Boot Camp, I had exceeded my overall goals. I wanted to lose 30 pounds and ended up losing 37.5. My body fat percentage went from 28.9% to 18.2% and I lost 35.55 inches overall. My confidence is through the roof and I feel better about myself than I have ever before.
Roslyn B.
At the end of this challenge, I sit here typing this having lost almost 15% of my body weight. It does not matter what I've lost, it matters what I've gained. I have started on a new journey of health and wellness.
Janelle Dkystra
This challenge has changed my life! I lost 41lbs and 20inches in 8 weeks. I hit my goal of being able to once again say, "I've lost 150lbs!" I've gained so much confidence in these last 8 weeks. I feel like a new person. I'm finally starting to be proud of me and what I've accomplished.
Jessica S.
As I write this note, I am down 35 pounds and 27" since the challenge started and 45 pounds since December 1, 2018. FBBC is truly a sustainable lifestyle change for me, and I couldn't be more thankful for this FBBC family.
Craig K.
I ended up losing 17.33% of my body weight which was 45.1 pounds and I lost a total of 37 inches! I think I am a prime example of what Boot camp can do for someone. This new year I have found my new me.
Shanna C.
For me, it was about proving that if you put your mind to something and tell yourself you are going to do it, no one can take that away from you. Never in a million years did I think I would see the results I have achieved in the last 8 weeks.
Shari H.
I am beyond ecstatic because here I am eight weeks later and I am down 34 pounds, 16.25 inches, and my highest percentage of body weight lost is 11.7%! Boom! How amazing is it those 8 weeks of hard work that have changed my outlook on life and the trajectory of my health towards a positive direction?
Thidarhod Tep
Despite my surgical knee, I was able to lose 19.34% body weight and 15.5% body fat. I was able change my bad habits and turn them into a healthy long-term lifestyle. I was able to overcome mental obstacles by taking control of my life.
Ashley D.
Over these past 8 weeks, I have become healthier, set a positive role model for my children, and gained friendships I couldn't make anywhere else. All this happened without me even noticing. As icing on the cake, I lost 33lbs and 7.8% body fat and I'm not done yet!
Jessi Becker
I never would have imagined that so much positive change could occur in only 8 short weeks! I went into this challenge with goals of what I wanted to LOSE (weight & inches) but rather find myself celebrating those things that I've GAINED. Incredible things happen when people support each other like we do at FBBC.

Gracelyn Guyol
Biographical Summary:
Oxford Who's Who has inducted Ms. Gracelyn Guyol into the highest Professional Distinction "Top Tier of Excellence Lifetime Achievement Recognition for her performance as a visionary leader and successful entrepreneur." Ms. Guyol is one of a few special honorees distinguished by their professional accomplishments, academic achievements, leadership abilities, years of service, and credentials provided. Gracelyn Guyol has used and advocated holistic, drug-free medicine since 1997, sharing what she has learned to empower others.
In 1984 she founded a seven-person California public relations agency that built quality brand awareness and national visibility for wineries. After eight years, she sold the agency, retiring mid-life with her husband in New England. The rapid growth of breast cysts and tumors brought surgery twice in 12 months, altering the course of her life. Frightened, Guyol systematically eliminated intake of chemicals that might cause cells to mutate, a process that revealed an antidepressant given for bipolar disorder was triggering the growths. She tapered off the drug and refused other psychiatric medications, determined to find safer, holistic treatments. Guyol consulted a holistic mental health clinic near Chicago. Laboratory tests identified two inherited causes of mania, and specific natural supplements were prescribed. Manic highs ended within four months. Yet depression continued for 15 months until new research prompted Guyol to take therapeutic levels of fish oils. Within 48 hours, her depression lifted, and she has enjoyed mental stability since 2002. Once aware of toxins' role in major illness, Guyol became an ardent environmentalist. She created a 62-page guide, Earth Friendly Alternatives to herbicides, pesticides and household chemicals, and served two years as Garden Club of America conservation leader for 21 clubs in Connecticut and Rhode Island. To reduce ocean pollution through community action, she founded and from 2006-2012, was President of a still flourishing environmental non-profit, CUSH, Inc. (Clean Up Sound & Harbors). The science in Guyol's first book, "Healing Depression & Bipolar Disorder Without Drugs (2006)," led to delivering seven-hour accredited seminars for medical practitioners across the US. At public lectures, consumers asked for simple, concise steps to recovery, without all the science. In 2010, she published "Who's Crazy Here, Steps to Recovery Without Drugs," outlining natural treatments for nine mental diagnoses in 114 pages. After the Newtown, CT, school shootings, Guyol was appointed to serve on the Connecticut Children's Mental Health Task Force as the only complementary and alternative medicine expert. In June 2014, she recommended 10 drug-free therapies for state use. Since 2012 she has produced 50 cable TV shows in an on-going, educational series, "Restoring Health Holistically," including interviews of specialists in holistic treatment of violence.

Leeds Castle, Grounds, Gardens, Golf Club, Attractions, Accommodation, Castle View Restaurant and Hospitality Venues are now closed to adhere to the guidelines issued by the Government and Public Health England regarding COVID-19 (Coronavirus). Click here for further information.
Funds raised through admission tickets, retail, accommodation and catering are reinvested into vital and ongoing projects.
Stonework Restoration
In recent years, over £2 million has been spent restoring the Castle's outer stonework; an ongoing project that requires funding raised only through our hospitality, accommodation, catering, retail and visitor ticket sales.
During the late 19th century, it was common practice to use cement based mortar on many heritage buildings, and again for post-war repairs during the 1950s, 60s, and 70s. Unfortunately, these 'repairs' did more harm than good, and in addition to centuries of general weathering, the cement mortar is to blame for the erosion on the Castle's stonework today. By using cement mortar instead of lime mortar, the stonework's breathability was blocked; trapping moisture inside the stone. Inevitably, the damp stonework would then freeze during the winter, causing broken and spalling stone to appear on the Castle's exterior.
As a result, major restoration projects were undertaken on the Castle exterior, the Maiden's Tower, Gate Tower, Moat Bridge and the Gloriette. In 1995, the work began with a series of smaller repairs to the walls and doors of the Castle. Further work was then undertaken to remove loose stonework, and in 2007, extensive maintenance began on the string courses, walls and windows. Other restoration projects include the removal of moss and plant growth around the walls, and the preservation of historic corbel stone remnants.
To uphold tradition, we aim always to use Kentish Ragstone to reflect the original appearance of the New Castle. Future plans include conservation of the Barbican and Fortified Mill, alongside this current restoration of the Castle turrets on the front elevation.
Despite invaluable revenue from admission tickets and events at the Castle, there are never enough funds raised to carry out all the important conservation work required, please consider giving the Leeds Castle Foundation a charitable donation by visiting: leeds-castle.com/donate
The New Castle (2018/19)
This project took place on the front elevation of the Castle and was completed from October 2018 to March 2019. This vital project cost the Foundation over £360,000. The work was being carried out by PAYE Stonework and supervised by conservation architect Ian Angus of Carden & Godfrey.
The order of works included the replacement of stones using only Kentish Ragstone, lime shelter coating and the repointing of the walls with lime mortar. The team cut out existing mortar joints and replaced them with a lime mix to ensure moisture was not trapped behind any previous cement repairs. In addition, they replaced the lead roofs in the main turrets, roof parapet gutters, and made repairs to the timberwork. There was also a redecoration on the metalwork and window glazing, of which 'Richemont Bleu' stone was used for the restoration of the detailed window masonry.
The Yellow Drawing Room (2017)
The Yellow Drawing Room was first used by Lady Baillie as a Luncheon Room, and was originally decorated with grey oak panelling by her first designer Armand Albert Rateau. In 1938 she and her new designer Stephane Boudin introduced a new decorative scheme which reflected the French 18th century style. It was a magnificent effect with yellow silk damask on the walls and the coveted painting by Tiepolo hanging above the fireplace. It became Lady Baillie's favourite room, and was the only space in the New Castle that she retained for her own use during the Second World War.
By 2017 the decoration had degraded badly. Whilst the yellow wall silk had survived largely intact for nearly 80 years, it had suffered from light and other environmental damage, resulting in areas of severe wear and degradation, as well as water staining, ingrained dirt and discolouration. The original curtains which had been made from the same yellow silk as the walls, had at some point been sacrificed to repair large areas of the wall hangings, and had been replaced by a sub-standard cotton damask.
The lambrequin – a decorative pelmet positioned below the ceiling cornice and across each window heading – was in better condition, suffering mainly from ingrained smoke and dust. The cornice itself was in good structural condition, but was marred by a thick layer of dirt that had settled on the high relief design.
Research was carried out to identify the original manufacturer of the silk, and fortunately it was found to be Tassinari and Chatel – a company that is still in existence today and able to reweave the silk to the original design and colour. The process took four months and when it was installed, it was done using traditional techniques to stretch and tension the silk over wooden battens.
Paint research was carried out on the cornice which identified it as a distemper paint which required special method of cleaning using triamonium citrate. This had to be done by hand and was carried out using in house expertise within the Heritage team at Leeds Castle.
The lambrequin was sent away for conservation At Zenzie Tinker Conservation in Brighton and involved wet cleaning using solvents to remove ingrained dirt from the tassels, and also some areas of conservation stitching to stabilise light damaged areas.
The Castle Dining Room (2015)
This room was initially used by Lady Baillie as a Servants' Hall and divided into three separate spaces. In 1938 she and her designer Stephane Boudin decided to transform it into a formal dining room decorated with 18th century tapestries and Chinese porcelain. The new scheme was nearly finished when the Second World War broke out and the Castle was used as a field hospital. The new dining room was used as a hospital ward where injured servicemen could recuperate.
After the war, the room was finished and Lady Baillie continued to entertain her guests in it right up until her death in 1974. During the last decade of her life, she had redecorated the room with a new designer, Claude Mandron, in a scheme that satisfied 1960s tastes.
In 2015, the room had become faded and tired, with the curtains in need of replacement and the set of five tapestries in dire need of conservation treatment. The carpet had become threadbare and the parquet floor was scuffed and marked. In order to return the room to its original splendour extensive research was carried out to identify the original 1930s wall colour, reweave the specially designed curtain fabric and to decide how best to treat the tapestries.
The paint colour was revealed to be a special dragged-effect 'water green', which was a trademark of Stephane Boudin and signified that this was perhaps one of his most significant interior schemes that still survived under later layers of paint. The colour was carefully reinstated by a team of historic paint experts from Crick Smith and once completed, complimented the Chinese porcelain on display.
The tapestries required extensive treatment to clean them, repair light and other environmental damage, and to support the weight of them once they were rehung. The process took two years and involved a specialist wet cleaning technique in Belgium and many hours of conservation stitching at The Textile Conservancy in Kent.
The Castle Library (2015)
Used as a small dining room by the Wykeham Martin family from 1822, this room was redesigned by Lady Baillie in 1926 as a schoolroom, where her daughters received their very early education. In 1938 Lady Baillie and her designer Stéphane Boudin reorganised the use of rooms in the New Castle, and the schoolroom was transformed into a Library.
During World War II, the Castle also served as a field hospital run by 10 Company Royal Army Medical Corps to treat wounded servicemen, and the Library was used as a ward for recuperation. The room was emptied of its fine furniture and the bookcases were boarded over with the books still in place - the faint nail markings left on the front panels of the bookcases can still be seen today.
With its beautiful, cream-white paneling picked out in a rich red Moroccan glaze, the Library still houses hundreds of books from Lady Baillie's personal collection and from the library of her father, Lord Queenborough. However, by 2015, the condition of the Library's original décor had aged and deteriorated considerably. The Leeds Castle Foundation launched an extensive restoration project in the same year, with the aim to return the room to the full splendor of Stéphane Boudin's decorative schemes of the 1930s and 1940s, a time when the Castle was at its peak as a party house for the influential and famous.
Detailed historic paint analysis was carried out to ensure that the correct colour palette was chosen to recreate the original scheme. Executing the project with meticulous precision, expert craftspeople then redecorated the walls, ceiling, woodwork, shelving and fireplace to return the room to its former glory. A variety of fixtures, fittings and furnishings were also conserved, such as repairs to windowsills, reupholstery of seating and an extensive treatment to a fine early 18th century bureau bookcase.
With cream and ochre tones, the decorative scheme of the Library is now beautifully harmonised with the neighboring Dining Room, which was restored in 2015 during the same restoration project.
Thorpe Hall Drawing Room (2015)
From 1926, Lady Baillie and her designer Armand-Albert Rateau transformed the Castle rooms from the high Victorian style of the previous owners, to the refined interiors of a luxurious country house. One room in particular, The Thorpe Hall Drawing Room, provides visitors with a glimpse into the glamorous lifestyle enjoyed by Lady Baillie and her many weekend guests.
The room was created with exquisite pine paneling, large doors and an Italian chimneypiece acquired from the great parlour at Thorpe Hall near Peterborough, who had sold the furnishings to pay death duties. The paneling, which dates from 1653, first arrived at Leeds Castle painted in a shade of pea green. This paint was painstakingly removed and the panels had to be reassembled like a large jigsaw puzzle. To accommodate the panels, the room's ceiling had to be lowered and a new door was cut through the wall at the bay-window end of the room. In 1937, Lady Baillie's new designer Stéphane Boudin redesigned Thorpe Hall once more and altered the room's soft furnishings.
By 2015, the original sofas, damask and other soft furnishings had suffered from decades of light and environmental damage, resulting in severe wear and deterioration. It was then, in 2015, that the Leeds Castle Foundation embarked on a mission to restore Thorpe Hall to its former glory.
Throughout the restoration, we made it imperative to preserve the soft furnishings and interior design features first introduced by Lady Baillie. Therefore, the first task was to track down the original manufacturer of Thorpe Hall's damask. Thankfully, extensive research carried out by the Curator led to the discovery of Lady Baillie's archived receipt from the original manufacturer; Tassinari & Chatel. The French company (who also manufactured the silk in the Castle's Yellow Drawing Room) still exists today, and fortunately they were able to reweave a damask to the exact same design and colour.
In addition to the restoration of the silk damask, the Heritage team is currently leading extensive object conservation in Thorpe Hall. A writing desk from Lady Baillie's collection has been carefully conserved and displayed for the public to see, the room's wooden flooring will be entirely reconditioned and the team will also be enhancing the room's lighting scheme.
The Bath House (2016)
In spring 2016 a major project in conjunction with Oxford Archaeology has been undertaken to drain away the moat waters within the bath house, dredge several feet of silt from the floor and fully reveal the architecture of the great chamber for the first time in 750 years.
A dam was created across the inlet from the moat to allow water and silt to be pumped out and enable a scaffold to be built on a firm foundation. The dredging team worked very hard in difficult conditions to clear the chamber and they, with Curator Annie Kemkaran-Smith, pulled a significant amount of finds from the mud, including a Victorian fishing tackle box, an anchor, coins and medallions, but sadly no medieval artefacts.

An apa organized by Fred Isaacs in late 1985 to be used to discuss the tizzy that smofdom was thrown into by the Archon Tax Exemption Problems which at the time seemed to be threatening the possibility of conventions continuing to benefit from 501(c)3 status. Deborah Ferree was announced as the first OE. It is not known if it got off the ground.
Mike Glyer (who worked professionally for the IRS) was unimpressed by the level of knowledge shown by the announcment. See File 770 #56 p8.

Can urinary exosomal micro-RNA detection become a diagnostic and prognostic gold standard for patients with lupus nephritis and diabetic nephropathy?
In 1993, Lee et al. (1) observed that lin-4 gene could control the embryonic development of C. elegans, but failed to encode a protein molecule. Besides, the gene transcribes a pair of microRNAs (miRNAs). The short RNA is approximately 22 nucleotides (nt) in length whereas the long one is 61 nt that was predicted to fold a stem loop with anti-sense complementary to 3'-untranslated region (UTR) of lin-14 messenger RNA (mRNA) (2).

Bach's Choral Prelude, Bourrée, from English Suite No. 2, and Aria, Suite in D Major, No. 2, arr. by Ward Swingle, with Pat O'Leary, bass.
Saturday, May 14, 8 pm • Sunday, May 15, 4 pm
Performances at Our Lady of Peace Church
Program Notes
As our title promises, we begin our concert with musical settings of four sonnets by William Shakespeare. The New York based composer, James Bassi, wrote Harp-sonnets in 2005 for the Central City Chorus. Mr. Bassi chose to begin this collection with what may be the most well known of the sonnets, Number 18, "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?" The opening time signature is 6/8, which gives the piece a flowing, pastoral feel. Many of the harmonies in the choral parts contain the open, archaic sounds of 4ths and 5ths, rather than full triads made up of 3rds. However, the harp part completes the chords in surprising ways and gives a modern sound of the extended harmonies of 7ths, 9ths, and 11ths of today. In general, the piece is in ABA form, with the harp serving as accompaniment in the two A sections. However in the middle B section, the harp has its own counter-melody and its harmonic changes happen much more quickly.The second sections uses Sonnet 97, "How like a winter hath my absence been" dealing with a lost love. In the loved one's absence, all is seen as dark and wintry, even though these thoughts and feelings are occurring in summer and autumn. To aid this feeling of loss the harp part beings with a descending motif in G minor, accompanying only the men's voices singing melody in unison. The voices then expand to two parts, one for men and one for women plus the harp motif. This harp motif continues through almost the entire piece in different ranges and sometimes reversing direction. The men return in unison and two parts to remember the actual beauty of the summer and autumn and now the harp is heard in a major key. This leads to a short section for the women in two parts before the whole choir finally enters in four parts to a very spare accompaniment. We then return to the opening men's melody now sung in four parts by the entire choir with the accompaniment in B flat major: the relative major of the opening key of G minor. As the feeling of the loved one's absence again grows stronger, the choir grows softer and softer. They end on an ambiguous chord which is neither major nor minor, while the harp returns with the opening motif in the original G minor.
Section three employs Sonnet 128, "How oft when thou, my music, music play'st." For the first time the harp introduction supplies not only the key, tempo, and emotional attitude of the piece but also plays a melody that comes close to the choir's opening melody as well. In order to help us picture the "blessed wood" (a keyboard like a spinet or a virginal) and the "jacks" (keys of the instrument) the harp part is written more like a keyboard part. Both parts frequently seem to chase and/or echo each other through this lively love song.
The final section is set to Sonnet 19, "Devouring time, blunt thou the lion's paws" and rages against the decay of time. To keep our mind on the subject of time, the harp plays exactly on the beat for most of the piece. Any syncopated rhythms are found in the choir in order to accent the correct syllables or to lengthen an important word. Most of the piece is in various minor keys until the end, where it switches to major and stays there for the poet's final words that claim in spite of time turning all things old, through his poetry his love will "ever live young."
Two of Brahms's most popular and well-loved compositions are his two books of Liebeslieder Waltzes for four-part voices and four hand piano accompaniment. Like those earlier pieces, his Zigeunerlieder ("Gypsy Songs") form a sequence of dance-songs for four-part voices and one pianist. Rather than a waltz feeling of three, they are dominated by the strong 2/4 beat of the Hungarian Csardas ("Dances.") These eleven pieces range from the fast and energetic (e.g., Number's 1, 2 and 11) to the slow and beautiful (e.g., Number's 7 and 8). The accompaniment to Number 10 even makes a good imitation of the cimbalom (a Hungarian dulcimer–a favorite instrument at the time in Hungarian gypsy orchestras.) Brahms seems to have written these pieces for sheer enjoyment and described them as "cheerful and high-spirited nonsense.")
The Swingle Singers began as a group of freelance recording session singers working in Paris, France in the early 1960s. One of them, an American by the name of Ward Swingle, had the idea of singing through some preludes and fugues of J.S. Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier just to see if they would sound good with voices. The group felt that they did, and since there were no words they improvised a version of scat-singing to go with the music. They found that a good deal of the music done this way had a natural "swing" to it. The six singers, led by Mr. Swingle, rehearsed for about a year. They recorded for Philips at the end of that year, thinking that they would sell a few recordings. When it was released in the United States in 1963 it climbed the charts to the Top Ten and stayed in the Top 100 for nearly a year and a half. That first recording also won Grammy awards that year for "Best Performance by a Chorus," and "Best New Artist." Philomusica offers you three of Ward Swingle's Bach arrangements to begin the "Jazz" half of our concert.
We conclude our concert with a performance of Birthday Madrigals, written by John Rutter in 1995 to celebrate the 75th birthday of the great English jazz pianist George Shearing. The five pieces in this collection are called madrigals only because their texts come from the era of the Elizabethan madrigal. Numbers's 2 and 4 are gorgeous slow pieces for a cappella choir. In support of the title of today's concert, Number's 1 and 5 have texts by Shakespeare, while Number 3 has words by Christopher Marlowe and Walter Raleigh. These three movements are written in jazz style for both the voices and the accompanying instruments, thus bringing to an exuberant close our concert of "Shakespeare, Brahms, and All That Jazz."

George Orwell said that telling the truth in a time of deceit is a revolutionary act. Of course this quote speaks for itself to us in the Dissident Right and any deviant deplorable with a working knowledge of actual history, but there's much more to Orwell's statement then meets our keen eye. In fact, it's quite pertinent to our "current year".
Yes, eating a ham sandwich or foodstuff whether modified like a Frankenfood burger from the villainous Monsanto to the vegan activist barista brewing a cup of supposedly ethically sourced coffee beans picked by child slaves in the war torn Congo.
It really doesn't take much these days, especially when you can spam social media with the food you just gorged on at Chic Fil A or one of Ben & Jerry's social conscious ice cream flavors for 8$ meant to impress people on your Facebook feed you think are your friends.
One realization I had as a teenager was that everything under the sun had an epistemology to it. Whether it was Halo 3, Dragon Ball Z, Mountain Dew, Chipotle, August Burns Red, or anything at all; there was a worldview attached to it. Metal music, food, my choice wardrobe of Hot Topic deathcore/metal-core bands in full gore font, website design, cigars, coffee – literally everything.
However what I hadn't full realized yet until quite recently was that all those things could and are now politicized in some manner – especially when it comes to the "culture war". Everything apparently now has some kind of activism, purpose, or deliberate signaling attached to it. This means that it takes on a whole new set of disturbing implications in our digital internet age.
Think I, Pencil and all the people who contribute to making the pencils, but with Rules For Radical's like application twist involved with those making, distributing, purchasing, and consuming it. No longer are they behind closed doors in factories, offices, and warehouses, but their process, the people involved, distributors, etc now have people with smartphones sharing the product, slogans, and details on the interwebz and Faceberg.
Wearing certain shirts while lifting a box of pencils and innocuously having your picture taken for a company photo is indeed a revolutionary act. It may not be meant for large mass internet audience and consumption, but you never know if it could. Essentially, tread carefully…
Consider the act of eating a ham sandwich – or any sandwich, burger, etc. It's a big damn deal. In 2018 – especially in urban coastal blue area – it can be an act of "resistance" and "awareness" or the opposite end of the spectrum where its "reactionary" and "oppressive".
Where did the Ham Sandwich come from? Is it locally sourced and butchered? Are the butchers local and did they vote the right way in recent elections? Were the pigs free range on the farm? Does the farmer or company support abortions, same-sex adoptions, and adherence to the progressive stack for brainstorming sessions?
Are the workers locals or HB1 visa holders? Was one of them accused of rape at any point? Does the company pay a living wage? Do any Evangelicals work for them? Someone with a pro Trump sticker on their truck handled the food?!?! That's business with bigots, Nazis, and insert "ist" and "ism" here!
Everything they do is a potential revolutionary act as is everyone involved, but the potential impact and consequences haven't been fully considered and explored.
It's a new vision of Forks Over Knives with a message tailored for an audience with money to spend, too much time to spare, and a soulless existence looking for purpose. I guess they are finally finding it to the apparent applauding masses on the campuses planning a low-grade conflict with their deplorable neighbors.
I'm starting to wonder just how far this can be taken by the usual suspects. No longer will you be shamed for a dumb tweet that didn't bother anyone 8 years ago, but the fact you were seen at In-N-Out Burger instead of Starbucks means you might get some hatemail – or perhaps calls for your even your janitorial job if you work on certain college campuses in California. Or it might just endear you to a secretive appreciating audience and make you new friends.
There's a whole group of people – the new futurists – out there who consider who conceptualize and try to consider what kind of future tech will shape our humanity, culture, and politics and attempt to prepare us for the incoming disruptions that will occur. What they and the rest of us have apparently missed is guilt shaming that can be attached to any activity under the sun and spread from the pixels of social media to literal pavement of any establishment or home.
I wouldn't say our future is grim, but that it's much more uncertain than I ever realized in the digital age with the concept of privacy unfortunately becoming and outdated notion – one that Generation Z might have already ignored. As we sacrifice our privacy through lifestyle choices where everything is "connected", even the most innocuous choices and activities will be scrutinized for their implications.
Where you walk, which path, the gas station you stopped at for water, and even perhaps what stroller you are pushing your toddlers in all makes a statement which is open to vast gulfs of subjective interpretation – perhaps more so in heavily urban areas.
If someone has a grudge against you and can find you, all bets are off. When that happens everything you do might become not just a revolutionary act, but one of potential isolation and costly stigmatization.

Beautiful and expensive jumper, but zips let us down. Thank God for the 'Zip Experts'. Zip fixed - Problem solved.
This requires a real operation. The main problem is that the cloth part of the zip was unstable and fragile because this is a hundred years old leather jacket. We managed to restore it though and we can say that the operation was a success.

Weitere Informationen über das Weingut Chateau Clinet
The first traces of viticulture, on the land that today belongs to Château CLINET, date back to 1614 under the ownership of the GOMBAULT family. Bertrand de GOMBAULT who inherited the land from his father, was known as Seigneur de Pontus. He was also the Mayor of Libourne, in 1685. The family owned parts of CLINET right up until 1831. Although the lay of the land was not exactly as it is today, the estate passed from the GOMBAULT family, who were eventually ruined, to the ARNAUD family in 1825. Catherine Henriette ARNAUD married Elie Désiré CONSTANT, an important wine merchant who, as a widower, shared the property between his 4 children.
After 1879, Château CLINET changed hands several times before becoming the bijou estate of the LUQUOT/AUDY family in 1908. George AUDY, the son of Germaine LUQUOT and Jean-Louis AUDY, looked after CLINET along with his son in-law, Jean-Michel ARCAUTE. In 1991, after George AUDY's death, CLINET was sold to a French Insurance company GAN, and was still run by Jean-Michel ARCAUTE. The latter marked a real turning point. He improved the wine by revolutionising the way the vineyard was being managed, replanting with merlot instead of cabernets and introducing hand-harvesting, manual selection and a longer cuvaison. With the support of Michel Rolland, Jean-Michel's hard work paid off when the name Clinet was put back on the map after receiving rapturous acclaim from critics in 1989 (receiving 100/100 from Robert Parker) & 1990.

To make them cleaner, I substituted half the flour with
whole wheat pastry flour, and the other half with
oat flour. Everything else stayed the same....My husband said they tasted like a dog biscuit with chocolate chips in it. And I agree. I can't believe how much changing the flour can change an entire cookie. What the heck dude?!
So the quest continues, to find a Deliciously Clean dessert.
(Thank you for your clean eating tips in my last post. I will definitely be checking them out.)
I didn't have the healthiest weekend ever. We were at a car dealership ALL day with nothing to eat. When we finally left (with my new car:), we were starving, and an Olive Garden was right across the street. So we went. And I enjoyed. Then Sunday I had leftovers. But today- today was good. And so will be tomorrow, and the next day. I'm doing this- I just got to find some clean desserts, to keep me motivated. A girl needs her chocolate.
