Najis things » 8. Disbeliever (kāfir)
Ruling 103. A person who does not believe in Allah or in His oneness is impure. Similarly, the following are impure: extremists (ghulāt) (i.e. those who regard one of the Imams (ʿA) as Allah, or say that Allah has immanence (ḥulūl) in the Imam (ʿA)),(1) Kharijites (khawārij), and nawāṣib (i.e. those who show enmity towards the Imams (ʿA)). The same applies to a person who rejects prophethood or any one of the indispensable aspects of the religion – such as prayers (ṣalāh) and fasting (ṣawm) – if it is in a way that it amounts to refuting Prophet Muḥammad (Ṣ), albeit in a general manner. As for the People of the Book (ahl al-kitāb) (i.e. Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians), they are ruled as being pure.
Ruling 104. The entire body of a disbeliever is impure; this includes his hair, nails, and the moisture from his body.
Ruling 105. If the father, mother, paternal grandfather, and paternal grandmother of a child who is not of the age of legal responsibility (bāligh) are disbelievers, that child is also impure unless he is mumayyiz and professes Islam, in which case he is pure. If he turns away from his father and mother and inclines towards Muslims, or, if he is in the process of researching and investigating, then ruling him as being impure is problematic [and therefore, based on obligatory precaution, the requisite precautionary action must be taken].(2) And if either his father, mother, paternal grandfather, or paternal grandmother is a Muslim, then as per the details that will be mentioned in Ruling 210, the child is pure.
Ruling 106. If it is not known whether someone is a Muslim or not and there is no indication of him being a Muslim, he is pure. However, other rules of being a Muslim do not apply to him; for example, he cannot marry a Muslim woman and he cannot be buried in a Muslim cemetery.
Ruling 107. A person who abuses any of the Twelve Imams (ʿA) on account of his enmity towards them is impure.

Some women like to look natural and others like to look glam. Some don’t know how to pull off one or the other. This article outlines ways to highlight your natural beauty with your makeup application, how you especially care for your body as part of your beauty routine, and which clothes will be most likely to put you on center stage.
Get a Glow
Use a body scrub to exfoliate all of your body’s dead skin while you take a shower. When you get out of the shower, pat yourself dry and use a gradual faux tanning lotion such as award-winning, Jergen’s Natural Glow, to give your skin a sun-kissed warmth.
Wear Minimal Makeup
Your natural beauty makeup kit consists of only a liquid or mineral powder foundation, bronzer, pink blush, black or brown mascara, and a particular color of lipstick. The trick to choosing the right natural beauty enhancing lipstick is to match the color of your nipple as closely as possible. Once you’ve applied your “face”, smile and blush the apples of your cheeks. Suck in you your cheeks and bronze your cheekbones, the bridge of your nose lightly, and your temples and middle of your forehead where the sun would naturally kiss. Curl your lashes with an eyelash curler and apply just enough mascara to give contrast. Apply your “personalized” lipstick and your makeup is complete!
Jennifer Love Hewitt once admitted in an interview that she liked to sit in a steamy bathtub after she’d applied her makeup for a date. It set her makeup and gave her a healthy glow!
Special Occasion Hair
The great thing about highlighting your natural beauty is that it looks effortless, and sometimes, is. Although a blow out is not effortless, it really highlights your hair’s color, texture, and body. If you cannot get this service done at the salon, you can Google how to do your own at home using a hair dryer and its appropriate barrel piece and a round brush.
Natural Nails
Consider supplementing your diet with essential vitamins and minerals. There are vitamins particularly helpful in improving the health and elasticity of hair, skin, and nails, but you can also eat certain foods or drink a protein/nutrition shake to fill in your nutritional gaps. Scrub your hands with an exfoliating product or brush, and soak them in milk to make them silky smooth. Manicure your nails and paint them with a strengthening, clear top coat.
Wear Clothes That Compliment Your Favorites
What are your favorite features? What features do you get most complimented on? Write down these features on paper and take the list to your closet where you’ll “shop” for articles of clothing that show off these features. Curate a few outfits with the pieces you’ve selected, and keep this list in mind next time you go apparel shopping.

Stayed a little late because I was finally making progress with QT's model/view architecture, and I didn't want to stop before I'd got to the point where I had something working.

Vacation, Hours and Sickday Log
This blog is intended for tracking vacation days and G&T (Give and Take) hours for HCMC staff. Where vacation days are acquired (at the beginning of the year) or used, or where you work more or less than your normal workday, a posting can be made. These are example post titles: "MDH: G&T + 1 hour = 43 hours" "MDH: Vacation - 2 days = 25 days" Post bodies can explain details (such as what necessitated staying late). This tracking is NOT compulsory; those of us who find it useful will use it, and others may elect not to participate.

Further Development 22.8: cNeoblast Specialization2.8: cNeoblast Specialization
Regeneration: The Development of Rebuilding
The use of an adult population of pluripotent stem cells to fuel planarian regeneration presents several important questions. Is this population heterogeneous, or is it derived from a single pluripotent population, as clonal studies (see Figure 22.18) suggest is possible? Moreover, what is the process whereby a neoblast can create the 30 or so cell types of the adult planarian? When does cell specification take place? Could it be that lineage-restricted multipotent stem cells are derived from a cNeoblast and are seeded throughout the flatworm prior to any injury? Or are differentiated postmitotic cells produced directly from a pluripotent neoblast at the time of injury (Figure 1)?
Figure 1 Two possible mechanisms for neoblast specification during regeneration. (A) One proposed mechanism is that a single pluripotent neoblast is responsible for generating new cell progenitors that form the multipotent cells of the blastema. (B) Alternatively, multipotent progenitor cells are positioned throughout the planarian with their lineages specified based on their position. These divide and produce postmitotic blastema cells that differentiate into their specified fates.
Genetic studies are beginning to unravel some of the answers. The gene smedwi-1 is expressed by all neoblasts and has become the most common marker for their identification across planarian species (Reddien et al. 2005; Reddien 2013). Several studies have revealed that some neoblasts express different sets of transcription factors that correlate with specific cell fates in the planarian adult, which suggests that lineage specification of stem cell populations may exist in the organism for normal development and in response to injury (Hayashi et al. 2010; Pearson et al. 2010; Shibata et al. 2012). To further investigate this possibility, the Reddien lab performed transcriptomic analysis of individual neoblasts during homeostasis and regeneration (van Wolfswinkel et al. 2014). Through this comprehensive analysis, the researchers found that two distinct populations of neoblasts exist, which they named zeta and sigma (Figure 2A). Although zeta and sigma neoblasts are morphologically indistinguishable, they have several defining characteristics: they express different gene regulatory networks, and zeta neoblasts are postmitotic, whereas sigma neoblasts are highly proliferative and are the only stem cells directly responsive to injury. Upon amputation, sigma neoblasts (soxP2-expressing) generate a huge variety of cell types (brain, intestine, muscle, excretory, pharynx, and eyes), as well as the progenitor population for zeta neoblasts. Zeta neoblasts (zfp-1-expressing) are then directly responsible for creating the remaining epidermal cell types. Planarians lacking a zeta population can be made through zfp-1 RNAi knockdown. When the heads of these planarians were amputated, the sigma neoblasts were able to fuel the regeneration of all the cells of new heads, except for the epidermal lineages (Figure 2B and C; van Wolfswinkel et al. 2014). These data all support a vital role for stem cells in regeneration. But we are still left with the question, How are the specific cell types patterned correctly? How does the flatworm tell the posterior blastema to become tail and the anterior blastema to become head?
Figure 2 Two distinct populations of neoblasts exist, with one of them responsive to injury. (A) In situ hybridizations marking (blue) all neoblast cells (smedwi-1; left); the sigma neoblast population (soxP2; center); and the zeta neoblast population (zfp-1; right). (B) Planarian heads largely regenerate even in the absence of zeta neoblasts (leftmost, brightfield photos). Loss of the zeta population by RNAi is indicated by a lack of prog-1 expression (center photos) as seen with fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Although, epidermal cell types (right) do not fully regenerate in the absence of zeta neoblasts (vim-1, purple), the remaining neoblasts (green; likely sigma) and their derived cell types are unaffected. (C) Model of sigma neoblast-led development and regeneration. Sigma neoblasts direct the generation of numerous cell types as well as the zeta progenitor cells. Zeta neoblasts give rise to epidermal cell fates through a prog-1-positive postmitotic precursor state.

Novelists are leery about letting the buzzwords of recent history into their books. The immediate past threatens to upstage the imagined world with its reality, and at the same time diminish it with the cardboard tang of everyday life. Sarah Moss, by contrast, has never been embarrassed to lend her prose the texture of contemporary conversation. As a celebrated author of novels in which catastrophe shatters middle-class English lives, she was always a likely candidate to be quick off the mark with a lockdown novel.
In her latest, it’s November 2020, as night falls in the Peak District. Kate, a single mum, is half way through a 14-day period of mandatory isolation when she decides to slip out for an illegal walk in the hills. Her son remains behind; her widowed neighbour, Alice, sees her going up the path. The book opens with Rob, a volunteer for Mountain Rescue, getting word that a woman’s gone out on the fell and hasn’t come back.
What follows is a book that engages head on with the obvious difficulties of writing a lockdown narrative. Over the course of a single night, we move between isolated perspectives as tragedy looms like the descending northern fog. It seems like one of those distanced dramas staged on Zoom: a four-hander, whose long passages of free-indirect discourse feel like monologue or soliloquy. Integrating word choice with subject and genre was once called the problem of ‘decorum’, and a certain verbal restraint holds here as well. The novel’s opening pages make reference to kitchen extensions, student debt, ambulance response times, planning permission, A&E, self-isolation and social distancing. But no one comes right out and calls it Covid.
Kate wakes up face down in sheep droppings, unable to move. Her thoughts come through in jerky telegraphese: ‘One foot works. Don’t think about the leg. Cold.’ As her son waits for news of his mother, Rob goes out into the hills to find her. Alice, meanwhile, has spent the night unable to sleep. In long but tightly controlled sentences, Moss captures her circular patterns of complaint. ‘A person can doubtless live like this indefinitely, the background murmur of dread only a little louder week by week,’ begins a typical thought, before rapidly changing course, bristling with anger and finally falling off into privileged embarrassment: ‘Shame on her for comparing her comfy house, mortgage paid off, with her kind neighbours and her garden, to a prison.’ The word ‘garden’ might be the novel’s most appalling detail.
The blasted heath conjures an idea of broody gothic, but it’s also a venerable site of privilege-checking in English literature: the place where Shakespeare sent Lear, mentioned in this novel, to experience ‘the houseless heads and unfed sides’ of society’s most miserable. (‘Oh I have ta’en too little care of this’ he wails.) A touch of the fantastic does enter The Fell though, in the form of a talking raven who — like Lear’s Fool — mocks and chides broken-legged Kate as she crawls down the mountainside. ‘Are you a spirit animal or my mother?’ she complains.
It’s the sole magical note in a novel that otherwise feels schematically conceived. After all, is this not the told and told again story of the past 18 months: a quarantined nation, someone in need and the emergency services coming to help them? In this case, it’s a broken leg and mountain rescue, not a breathless pensioner in hospital. Someone will write that other book eventually. For now though it’s all too recent, too pungently freshin the mind.

When many of us think of the holiday season, we envision loving gatherings spent with family and friends, much-hoped for gifts, comforting food (and lots of it!), and time off of work.
But the reality is often very different.
The holiday season can also mean family arguments, too many commitments, rushing around, overspending, unrealistic expectations, and emotional difficulties as some of us think about deceased family members or other traumas associated with special occasions.
The result? Stress levels jump, and once the new year rolls around, we feel like we need a vacation to recover from our holiday.
According to a report on holiday stress by the American Psychological Association (APA), women are more likely than men to experience stress over the holidays, as they are traditionally the ones to cook, clean, shop, decorate, and pull off a big Christmas dinner. Lower-income families are also at risk of increased stress levels, as they struggle with pressures to buy gifts or provide the perfect Christmas experience, despite not being able to afford it. Figuring out a work-life balance over the holidays can also cause tension.
Throw in the fact that the holidays are generally a time to eat, eat, and eat some more, up our alcohol intake, ignore our workout schedule, and sleep more or laze around? Then we get hit with guilt and feeling physically gross on top of all that mental and physical exhaustion.
In a study of 2,000 adults in the U.S. conducted by OnePoll, a whopping 88 percent of respondents said the holidays were the most stressful time of the year, and a survey from the APA found that 36 percent of respondents experience sadness “sometimes or often” over the holidays, while 52 percent experience irritability.
“Stress affects all (body systems), including the musculoskeletal, respiratory, cardiovascular, endocrine, gastrointestinal, nervous, and reproductive systems," according to the APA.
Yikes.
So what does all that stress do?
The short answer? A lot.
Stress impacts our entire body (including our brain). Headaches, digestive issues, racing heart, and difficulty sleeping can are all symptoms of stress. And chronic or long-term stress can have even more severe health consequences.
To our bodies, stress means there is a threat. And what do we do when we feel threatened? We flip into the fight or flight response. Cortisol, epinephrine, and adrenaline flood the body, readying us to take action. Our heart beats faster and stronger, pumping more blood to our organs. Our breathing quickens. Our muscles tense. Our liver produces more glucose. Our stomach may be upset, and we feel nauseous—our appetite changes. Digestion gets disrupted, causing either diarrhea or constipation, and we don’t absorb nutrients the way we usually do.
Many of these responses would be needed if there were an actual threat. But when the body and brain go into overdrive for a perceived threat when there isn’t one, and, more critically, for a prolonged period, our health can suffer, causing both mild and severe symptoms.
Acute health issues due to stress can include:
Increased risk of stroke or heart attack
High blood pressure
Diabetes
Decreased sex drive and impotence
Irregular menstrual periods
Unhealthy weight loss or gain
Panic attacks
Migraines and chronic pain
Insomnia
Increased rates of anxiety and depression
Ulcers, heartburn, acid reflux
Depressed immune system
Irritable bowel syndrome
How do we cope?
In a word? Poorly. Habitual behavior takes a nosedive during the holidays, making it challenging to make healthy choices. Being out of a routine, pressure to make things perfect, time with family where there may be an unhealthy dynamic, and a financial crunch can cause us to check out and give up. Instead of doing things that could lower our stress level, we turn to something like:
Comfort eating and overeating
Social isolation
Alcohol and other substances
Painkillers
Laziness and a lack of exercise
And guess what? While we may feel temporary relief when drinking three whiskey sours and eating a bowl of chips and dip, we’re not doing our brain or body any favors.
The ongoing stress of still living in a pandemic isn’t relenting—a recent poll by the APA found that “one in three survey respondents report feeling stressed about the coronavirus pandemic and that they have difficulty making even fundamental decisions such as what to wear or what to eat.” So it’s easy to see why we choose binge-watching The Witcher with some gingerbread men and eggnog over a salad and a walk in the snow.
As the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health says, “Stress can take over your life.”
So what can you do?
You can do a lot to reduce stress, deal with it when it comes, and avoid it altogether (well, avoid some of it anyway).
For Evan Lee, FitTrack’s Head of Fitness Programming, it’s all about “connecting awareness to action.”
He advises planning, being honest about what the holiday season entails, and setting yourself up for success. He notes that the FitTrack smart scales and new premium MyHealth+ app give you a baseline of data for your unique body and then show you what you can do with that information to set and reach goals, stay motivated and get (or stay) on track.
The app “has all the pillars you need to be successful,” says Lee.
The new app even includes a workout program that emphasizes body and mind awareness, incorporating yoga, breathing, stretching, and balance into your exercise routine.
You can take many other proactive steps to keep your minds at ease during a stressful holiday season. Here are our favorites:
Top 15 Tips to Reduce Stress During the Holidays
Stick to your routine. Lee says doing your best to maintain healthy habits can keep you feeling good and give your body and mind what it needs to function properly. This way, you can celebrate the big day guilt-free, easing emotional stress and enjoying the people around you.
Be kind to yourself and celebrate small wins. The holidays are extra stressful. Acknowledge that, and pat yourself on the back when you make a healthy choice.
Everything in moderation. Lee says to forget about the idea of “good and bad” foods. Instead, choose well most of the time and then indulge guilt-free.
Listen to your unique body. Our app can track your resting metabolic rate, heart rate, hydration levels, and more. If you notice things changing, it may indicate that you need to rest or give yourself more sleep, a healthy snack, or practice a meditation exercise.
Track your food. Using a journal, meal planner, or the MyHealth+ app, keep track of what you’re eating, so you’ll know what you’re missing and can give your body what it needs. Focus on foods that can boost your mood and support emotional health, such as foods rich in omega-3’s (like salmon and walnuts), as well as dark leafy greens, lean protein, berries, avocados, and drinking plenty of water.
Get enough sleep.
If family gatherings are difficult or upsetting, limit them as much as possible, or opt-out altogether.
Stick to a budget to avoid buyer’s remorse when that credit card bill arrives.
Try mindfulness. Deep breathing, being present and focusing on the moment help ground you in real life, rather than fretting about the past or future.
Get outside. There’s tons of research showing that being in nature is good for our mental health.
Say no. You don’t have to do everything.
Exercise. Stick to what you know if it’s easiest, or you may want to try something new that’s active but still lets you relax. For example, yoga, an easy hike, stretching, or easy laps in an indoor pool, can motivate you to move your body while still giving yourself a break.
Release expectations, take shortcuts and give yourself some “me” time.
Limit alcohol.
Emphasize experiences over things. Time spent with people you love doing something as simple as playing a board game, baking cookies (getting your hands a little messy can be a great sensory experience that promotes calmness), or going for a walk to look at the lights can create good memories and promote feelings of togetherness and wellbeing.
Respecting and loving yourself means taking care of your physical health, as well as your emotional wellbeing. Taking positive steps that are good for your brain and your body will help protect you from situational stress, and the effects stress can have on your health in the long term—during the holiday season and beyond.

Boasting world-renowned biodiversity; four distinct regions (Amazonian, Andean, Coastal, and the Galapagos Islands), full of rich soil, abundant water and stunning beauty, Ecuador offers unique quality of life benefits at a steeply discounted price.
In an effort to stabilize the economy following a banking crisis, Ecuador adopted the US dollar as its official currency in the year 2000. Unlike its better-known South and Central American neighbors such as: Chile, Costa Rica, Brazil, Panama, and even Columbia, Ecuador has experienced a relatively short period of continuous monetary stability. As a result, it is in its infancy as an international destination for business, foreign investment, travel, and immigration.
Despite Ecuador’s comparative value, it is not lacking in modern amenities. Ecuador’s infrastructure, services, and social stability are on par with any in the world. Cost of living is an added attraction. Expenses such as: food, medical care, and education are a fraction of what one would pay in North America or Europe.
Whether you are looking to be closer to your food and water supply, live more comfortably on a fixed income, or enjoy a simpler, more relaxed lifestyle, Ecuador offers unparalleled options. With its natural beauty, friendly people, and attractive prices, Ecuador is perhaps the world’s most undervalued destination.

Team Andersen, Naval Base Guam, Joint Region Marianas and Government of Guam agencies participated in a joint typhoon exercise which started June 14, 2013, on Andersen Air Force Base, Guam. The base is always in Tropical Cyclone Condition of Readiness 4, the lowest TCCOR level which means destructive winds could hit within 72 hours due to its location in the tropical waters of the Pacific Ocean.

Andersen tests capabilities during joint typhoon exercise
Published June 20, 2013
By Staff Sgt. Melissa B. White
36th Wing Public Affairs
ANDERSEN AIR FORCE BASE, Guam -- Team Andersen participated in a joint typhoon exercise here June 14-20.
Andersen Air Force Base, Naval Base Guam, Joint Region Marianas and Government of Guam agencies conducted Exercise Typhoon Pakyo in order to test each organization's preparation, response and recovery capabilities in the event a typhoon would strike the island.
The exercise kicked off June 14 with the announcement of a potential storm and Tropical Cyclone Condition of Readiness 4, meaning destructive winds were probable within 72 hours. Andersen AFB is always in TCCOR 4 due to its location in the tropical waters of the Pacific Ocean where typhoons can occur any time of year, though the typical season spans from June through December.
"It's been a while since the base was impacted by a major typhoon, but being located in typhoon alley means a typhoon can generate up at any time and strike the base within 72 hours," said Staff Sgt. Adam Hills, Andersen Emergency Operations Center manager during the exercise and 36th Civil Engineer Squadron Emergency Management Flight NCO in charge of emergency management training and education. "An exercise is a great way to prepare for typhoons because it promotes interoperability between the base, JRM and other agencies off base. It also gives us the chance to streamline our checklists to make our recovery efforts quicker and more efficient."
The exercise resumed June 17 with continued preparation efforts around the base as they progressed through TCCOR 3 and 2 as Typhoon Pakyo drew nearer, bringing destructive winds within 48 and 24 hours respectively for each TCCOR. Some of the initiatives included closing shutters on windows, topping off fuel for generators, filling sandbags, planning for storing flying assets and preparing evacuation facilities with sleeping bags and cots.
TCCOR 1 was declared June 18 with destructive winds occurring within 12 hours, and the simulated storm struck the base the following morning. After that point, Airmen exercised their abilities to respond and recover from the devastation of the typhoon by advising safety measures, coordinating clean-up efforts, announcing the "All Clear" and returning to TCCOR 4 June 19. The weeklong exercise concluded June 20 with the base maintaining its real-world TCORR 4.
"This was a great learning experience and it gave the units a good opportunity to look at their typhoon and disaster preparedness plans and how they can better prepare Airmen and their families," said Senior Master Sgt. Lawrence Witt, 36th Wing deputy inspector general. "I think this exercise generated a lot of conversation about what we would do if this really happened."
For more information on preparing for typhoons, check out the "Andersen AFB Emergency Management" Facebook page. Also, stay tuned to the Andersen AFB website, official Facebook page, Commander's Access Channel and Straight Talk Line for more information during real-world emergencies such as typhoons.

Rehab Programs in Nelson, PA.
Drug rehab in Nelson, Pennsylvania can sometimes be a matter of going through the motions although not getting much accomplished, or only getting results which will be short-lived because insufficient effort and time was spent in rehabilitation getting down to the root of what caused the problem to start with. The thing is that sometimes individuals aren't within the right rehab for them, even though they are in what might be considered "rehab". As an example, some drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Nelson call themselves a treatment facility but only really allow the time to detox and possibly address a few things that might help the person stay drug free once they leave rehab. Likewise, short-term centers in Nelson, PA. are not going to be suitable for somebody that is dependent to alcohol or drugs, because after only thirty days or less in rehab individuals aren't prepared to go back to their normal lives and be confident about handling things which trigger their drug abuse. It's just unrealistic, which is why such brief stints in rehab usually bring about short-lived successes that result in relapse.
To actually reap the benefits of rehabilitation, individuals should be in a drug rehabilitation program in Nelson, Pennsylvania that does not only provides them with plenty of time to address anything which could compromise their decision to become drug free, but also a change of environment which is ideal for recovery. That is why inpatient and residential drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Nelson provide an individual the most beneficial possibility to actually get drug-free and stay this way, and should be regarded as the primary option. When someone refuses to go to drug and alcohol rehabilitation, this can be a hurdle that may be overcome with an effective drug intervention. So meet with a drug and alcohol rehab counselor to get an intervention started straight away if it seems like the next step.

This week, Asya Geisberg Gallery presents Razor Burn, an exhibition of paintings on stretched silk and colored pencil drawings by Katarina Riesing. At first glance the work's infatuation with laborious detail and rich material - especially in the hand-embroidered gold thread, use of silk, or the exquisitely-rendered swirls of patterned stocking - seem inspired by a northern Renaissance luxuriance. Yet Riesing's insistence on close croppings, and sometimes awkward, unsightly (i.e. the show's title) or uncomfortably erotic aspects of the body, reveal surreptitious squirming. Even when we are turned on, we feel perhaps that we shouldn't be watching. The confrontational intimacy of such compositions is paradoxically reserved, as Riesing leaves plenty unsaid in her otherwise recognizable depictions. In a few images, hands reach out to grab a thigh or nipple, and we never know the relationship or gender - is it self-love, an erotic caress, or possessive grab?
The paintings are made with dye on silk, a surface both akin to skin and a symbol of delicacy, sensuality, and opulence. To witness its desecration with these alarmingly realistic excavations of the body's imperfections - its moles, rashes, or scars - is at once unsettling and pleasantly subversive. Riesing's drawings and paintings often have a play-within-a-play quality, where other forms of imagery are wittily in focus - tattoos of bodies, bra straps that look like a bridge, negative spaces that suggest caves or sunsets, patterns that form drawing within drawings, sheer garments that create a screen or veil. Flattening occurs often and causes spatial confusions, as when legs kick like denuded Rockettes, or collapse on each other like so many apexes.
Riesing's drawings are quieter but no less powerfully precise or oddly bewitching than the paintings. With layers of small marks in colored pencil and ballpoint pen, they betray the same love of labor that the paintings show, with their painstaking embroidery suggesting microscopic chainmail or glinting finery. With influences as disparate as Christina Ramberg, Sarah Lucas, or Ghada Amer, and imagery from medical illustrations of skin disease, to prison tattoos, stock photography, and pantyhose labels, Riesing has reinvigorated our relationship to the body: its folds and contorsions, its bumpy topographies and filigreed coverings. Her intimate imagery burrows within our psyche, and allows us to question our own response to the body's in turn grotesque, absurd, and sensual aspects.
Katarina Riesing’s solo exhibition Razor Burn opens Thursday, January 9 at Asya Geisberg Gallery in NYC. There will be an opening reception held that day from 6-8pm and the show will be on view through February 15, 2020.

Hand Scan is a psychic ability Sherry LeBlanc possesses in the manga. Using it she is able to see cards in her opponent's hand by reading their mind,[1] similar to Pegasus' Mind Scan.
Usage[edit]
During her Turbo Duel with Akiza Izinski, Sherry used this ability with "Name Erasure" and "Mokusatsu" to constantly make Akiza discard her cards.[1] Akiza ultimately countered Sherry's Hand Scan with her own psychic ability: Foresee Draw. Akiza foresaw her draw and kept her eyes closed until her Main Phase; since Akiza herself didn't see the card she drew, Sherry weren't able to scan it.[2]

The Virtual Villain
Poine learning platforms and the troubles caused by it, existed way before the covid- 19 movement restrictions took place. However, it never affected school aged kids. But now when the possibilities of virtual learning took shape amidst this pandemic, most of us around the globe opted it out of fear..!! Now, let’s have a sneak peek over some of the difficulties caused by the virtual learning..!
Health issues – increase in obesity of kids, over stress for eyes, poster and related issues, over screen time..so on
Learning and teaching issues– limited hands on learning, bored and distracted kids for longer sessions, lack of resources and time, fewer in person interaction, kids lack friendship and bonding..so on
Technical issues – slow internet, background noise and distractions, lack of knowledge of staff and kids how to utilize maximum out of virtual classes..
Financial Issues-lack of financial support to get access to high speed internet or supporting devices. Even if most of the schools supported kids with necessary gadgets, we came across the news from some developing countries where, kids who committed suicide in grief of not being able to afford laptop/internet..!!
When compared to the trouble caused by the coronavirus to the humankind, all these above mentioned troubles aren’t major..! But there is something which is much serious than all of these issues that we must be aware of ..have you ever thought about it?? Do you know online predators are much more aware of these uncertain times and already started their groundwork to reach to our kids..!!
How secure is your kids data on a class website..??
Earlier when children where under the safe boundaries of school, these online predators seldom got a chance to connect with them. However the situations changed . Our kid’s personnel data including pictures and videos are readily available for hackers to retrieve it. Moreover, since both parents are working these days, most of the parents allowed kids to use the internet supported system to explore learning and to chat with adults in private spaces. Sexual harassments, Cyber bullying, Sending contents with negative connotations – including porn videos, sexual content, gender discrimination, racial discriminations, provoking religious contents, target defaming, glorified contents on drugs all similar cyber crimes spiked during this corona season.
It’s an offendable crime-say no to cyber bullying
Hmm, I know I know what you guys are thinking now..! Pretty much familiar with bullying right..? But what is Cyber bullying..??In simple words both are same, the only difference here is, in the latter one bullying is through any electronic medium. got it.?
And as a parent or care taker its our responsibility to create a safe and positive environment for our kids .Let’s see what all safety measures we should follow to arrest these risk factors.
Security: Make sure the device your kids using for virtual learning is protected by a good anti-virus. This itself will do half of the job..! In some cases adds pop up from unsecured sites and there are probabilities where kids ends up in clicking it accidently and launching on a wrong website..! This happens especially when adults other than the kid who using the same system visited those kind of awful sites before. Hope you got what I meant..!! If possible go on kids mode, which means, there are devices especially designed for kids , where parents can control duration, content ,websites which they can visit. However, this option doesn’t work with older kids.so, what is next..?
Step1 for controlling cyber crimes- ‘Security’
2.Thump Rules of virtual learning:
–>If possible let them sit in an open space like living room or family room where parents/guardians can keep an eye on them.
–>Always check whether they are wearing uniforms or professional dress code. It is a good practice to give a role model to our kids by following digital etiquettes while working from home.
– ->double check time boundaries on synchronized and asynchronized learning time.
3. Connect with them: Try to collect data from kids about what all things happened on that day, just as we use to do while kids went to face to face learning at schools. Don’t take it so easy since kids are learning from comfort of home. Closely observe their behavior, watch out for any distress signs and other activities. If something like cyber bullying bothers him/her try to arrest it at the beginning stages itself. Also, if needed you can get help from school authorities, police or doctors.
4. Keep password for Social apps and E-commerce site: Its an habitual behavior of we parents to save passwords for all social apps and e-commerce websites. Its really important that the passwords aren’t saved on the devices which our kids use for learning. Or else we will come to know the serious repercussions only once our bank balance is empty. hehe.. just kidding..!!
Well, that is enough of the flip side discussion..!!As a parent of a kindergartener I’m cent percent happy and could stay peaceful with the virtual learning, also kids are performing well than expected. They aren’t tired of commute and gets lots of time for learning and extra-curricular activities. Which is really significant. And I wish this paradigm shift of this learning platform stay longer. if we take care of little things mentioned above then, it’s one of the best thing happened to our educational system s so far. I know some of you guys won’t agree with me on this.. right..? Still, Let’s try embrace the finest part of this new technology amidst these hard times and hopefully our resilience will lead us to the path of victory once everything is back to normal..!!
So how is your kids online learning going..? have you took proper measures to arrest all kind of troubles which could turn virtual learning to a villain..? Are you happy with this new platform..? Do you have some suggestions to get maximum out of it..? Share your thoughts in the comment box below. Have a fantastic week ahead.
Thank you -Lafemina@anurijo

I’m a dad, so I suck at talking,
and puns,
but thank God I have ways. If you have a child that isn’t that talkative, minute-by-minute report type then it helps to switch from open ended questions to closed statements. In other words, if all you get is silence or one-word answers when you ask them, “How was your day?”, try asking them, “So was it fun drawing?” Random assumption, but if you’re right, you can start to go into what they drew and stuff, and if you were wrong, they’ll tell you without holding it against you and so you can either move onto the next educated guess.

This is valuable information that people should be aware of. I myself am a young teenager so I’m trying to educate myself more on how to be internet safe – so thank you for this. I’m trying to be more realistic when it comes to spam on my blog, and I’m trying to remind myself that not everyone who approaches me on the internet does so with the best intentions.

Right..
Online learning teaching process has its pros and cons..
As of now cons far outweigh the pros due to technical and availability reasons…the kids from rural background are specially suffering due to slow internet speed..
Our teachers are not profecient in teaching through online platform..though I must admit they are making efforts..
Yes..options are limited during the pandemic and online teaching appears to be the best bet..
Well covered…
Stay blessed 🙏😇

Online classes are worthless and they affect the mind of a child effectively. Online is becoming a place for formalities. It is not going to change the student’s life. Limited and right use should be our priority.

Colton Thompson, 3, enjoys the Elf Workshop Pop-Up with mom Nina, dad Graham, brother Connor, 1, and dogs Cooper and Sadie. The family lives on Lebanon Avenue and was out for a stroll when they discovered the pop-up.
Can you spot the hidden elves? How about the scene from The Polar Express?
There’s plenty of ways to have a jolly good time in Mt. Lebanon this season, while supporting local businesses and still maintaining social distance (Safety first!)
For this year, members of the Mt. Lebanon Partnership turned a vacant storefront in Uptown into a magical workshop where Santa’s elves are busy building toys for all the good little girls and boys. Now, you can help, too.
Your mission is two-fold: Find all of the hidden movie scenes in the workshop, at 651 Washington Road (the former Play Town Square), for bragging rights among friends and family. And if you’re a youngster aged 10 or younger, you’re tasked with finding all of the elves who lost their way during a recent storm. Fifty paper and toy elves are scattered in businesses in Uptown and on Beverly Road, with an additional 15 hiding inside the elves’ workshop. Snap a photo of all of the elves you find—quickly, this is a contest where time matters—and send them to [email protected] with the subject “Elf Search + Rescue Submission” to enter.
Creating magic amongst the chaos
It’s no secret that pretty much everything is different this year—global pandemic, and all. The Mt. Lebanon Partnership had to find new ways to keep spirits high and businesses going. “We strategized what we could do to bring a little cheer, as well as get people up to Main Street so they could patronize our businesses,” said Chris Reidenbaugh, who deems himself “the CEO of Holiday Cheer.”
Reidenbaugh’s initial plan was to create a holiday tree lot at Clearview Common, but logistically that wasn’t doable. So Partnership members pivoted and created the Elf Workshop Pop-Up Display. Families can stop by a local business for a coffee or cookie and then—safely, with social distancing and masking in mind—head to the display for loads of holiday cheer and family fun. (It’s best viewed from 4:30 to 11 p.m.!)
Their idea was simple. “Our goal is always to bring people to Uptown, to support our business community,” said Harold Behar, who did the graphic design work for the display. “We are also community-oriented, so it’s about bringing some joy.”
Here's everything you need to know about the Elf Search + Rescue Mission!
Can you find all the elves?
What movie is this?
Can you find the clues for 12 movies in the Hollywood Holidays game?
The Elf Workshop includes a tree lot.
The Elf Workshop also contains an unpacking station.
Colton Thompson, 3, checks out the Elf Workshop Pop-Up. His favorite part? The wagon!
Kids are asked to snap a photo of the elves to help save them this holiday season.
More than 50 elves are scattered throughout Mt. Lebanon businesses on Washington and Beverly roads in need of rescue.
Coming together
Community members came together to donate lots of toys, boxes and elves that could be used for the display/Search + Rescue. “A lot of sweat went into this,” said Michele Larson-Reidenbaugh, “resident elf” for the project.
Tim Steinouer, a local artist who is also involved in the Vibrant Uptown project, designed the space to create a sequence of scenes—from the elves wrapping presents to the small tree lot in the back. Behar was in charge of designing the signage and the Reidenbaughs brought the cheer and hustle.
While there’s no prize for finding all 12 movies represented in the workshop, kiddos younger than 10 who grab a picture of the most elves found in businesses on Washington and Beverly roads in the quickest time will get prizes. Families seem to be loving their mission, thus far.
“It’s been really joyful to see families walking around,” said Behar, who spearheaded the Elf Search + Rescue Mission. “It’s really about seeing joy on the kids’ faces.”

Interest rates
Important information: The value of investments and the income from them, can go down as well as up, so you may get back less than you invest.
IT’S a quiet week on the corporate front but there’s plenty to consider in terms of economic data and interest rates in the run up to the bank holiday weekend.
All eyes on the Fed
The big event of the week is Friday’s Jackson Hole central bank summit. A virtual event this year, rather than face-to-face in the Wyoming mountain resort, it will still provide an insight into the Federal Reserve’s latest thinking on interest rates and monetary policy generally. Watch out for guidance on when the Fed will start to reduce the $120bn a month it is currently spending on buying government bonds. The tapering of quantitative easing has the potential to spook investors if the messaging from Fed chair Jay Powell is not spot on.
Diverging stock markets
The S&P 500 is close to its all-time high at 4,442 as investors focus on a bumper second quarter results season. But it’s not good news all around the world. Hong Kong is in bear market territory as the Hang Seng index has fallen more than 20% below its February peak on the back of fears about Beijing’s latest regulatory clampdowns. The Chinese authorities are pushing for greater social cohesion at the expense of corporate profits in a range of sectors from financial technology to education, and healthcare to alcohol. Chinese stocks listed in the US are in the cross hairs too. An index of Chinese stocks quoted on the Nasdaq index has fallen more than half from its peak.
Commodity super-cycle gets a puncture
Industrial metals and gold, too, have lost momentum. In part that’s due to worries about a resurgence of Covid and slowing growth. It also reflects a rise in the dollar, in which most commodities are priced. An increase in the value of the US currency makes commodities more expensive to buyers in other countries and so weighs on their prices. Gold, in particular, at less than $1,800 an ounce is below where analysts would expect on the basis of falling inflation-adjusted interest rates, which should favour the yellow metal. The return to form of bitcoin - above $50,000 again - is another headwind for gold.
Dividends in focus
The Janus Henderson Global Dividend Index tracks the pay-outs from 1,200 of the world’s biggest companies. This week it showed a 26% increase in second quarter dividends, with 84% of companies either increasing or maintaining their payment to shareholders. The company expects dividends this year to be within 3% of their pre-pandemic peak.
Economic growth in the spotlight
Purchasing managers indices are the main economic highlight this week in Europe. Here in the UK, the recent ‘pingdemic’ has held things back, and the reading of 55.3 for August was lower than expected, but still well above the 50 mark that separates growth from contraction. In the rest of Europe, recovery is still well underway. The composite PMI was only just below July’s peak, at 59.5.

Steam systems are more than just burners and boilers. Steam systems should be looked at from a holistic approach. Of course, our trained technicians can troubleshoot your boiler and get you back up and running. We have many factory certifications for the hours of training we have done. We perform safety checks and make repairs to ensure that specifications and codes are met. To us, this is below the expectation you should have for the company managing your steam system. Our approach to your steam system looks at the following areas:
Generation
Combustion Efficiency - Are you only setting your combustion once a year after the inspection? It should be calibrated more than that as air density changes which can have a dramatic effect on combustion. We are also a siemens representative and can help you upgrade your system to a proven system with excess O2 trim to keep your combustion efficiency as high as possible year round.
Scale Buildup - Even a thin layer of scale can serve as an effective insulator and block heat transfer. The result is overheating the boiler tube material, tube failures, and loss of energy efficiency. The boiler will also not be able to put up original production due to the decreased efficiency. Energy losses are a function of scale thickness and type with 1/16" normal scale thickness that equate to 4% fuel losses.
Annual Inspections - Safety Check, tube sheet inspections, preventative maintenance, refractory inspections and repairs.
Distribution
Effective distribution system performance requires proper steam pressure balance, good condensate drainage, complete and optimum insulation with regular repair and maintenance, and effective pressure regulation.
Leaks and Failed Steam Traps: Steam leaks are a huge problem. Did you know that if steam costs $10/1000lbs of steam that a hole or trap blowing through with a 1/8” hole or orifice at 150psi is approximately $6,700/year. Just a few leaks or failed traps can have a big impact. We can set up a program for systematic inspection, testing, and repair of steam traps. We recommend monthly testing for high pressure (150psi and above), monthly to quarterly for medium pressure (30-150psi) and at least annually for low pressure steam.
Insulation - Missing insulation is an unnecessary waste of fuel and money.
End Use and Recovery
Maintaining heat exchangers and condensate receiver tanks are crucial to recover as much condensate as possible.
Optimize Condensate Recovery: Every BTU recovered is a BTU saved. In addition to energy savings, reduced make up water reduces chemical treatment.

Things to Discuss With Your Trainer When Exercising Post Child Birth
The birth of a baby marks the end of pregnancy and beginning of a new phase in your life. As a new mother, you are overwhelmed by all the changes happening within and all around and it is indeed difficult to spare some personal time for yourself. However, this is just the time when you need to pay extra attention to your health, nutrition and physical appearance. Hiring a personal trainer in Lylifield is the best thing you can do for yourself at this juncture. You will feel pampered with all that attention, your body will regain its former shape and strength and you will learn all about how to stay fit and healthy for life.
Exercising Post Childbirth
Pregnancy and delivery are two of the most physically demanding and traumatic experiences of a woman’s life. Delivery especially leaves you exhausted and weak. Adequate exercise, nutritious food and proper rest are the only ways you can regain your former strength and physical appearance.
Always consult your physio prior to starting any exercise programme. He is the best person to evaluate your condition and understand how well you have healed. Exercising without his consent can aggravate any injury (internal or external) and lead to complications.
Generally, it is safe for you to start exercising about four weeks after a vaginal birth and six weeks after a C-section. However, this waiting period can be extended further by your doctor if you have a lot of lacerations or stitches that must heal properly before you can strain yourself physically.
What to Discuss with your Trainer
It is best to discuss certain issues with your trainer from fitness training in Balmain before hiring him as many women have unrealistic expectations that lead to a lot of disappointments later on. Understanding your postpartum body and its limitations and how your trainer can help you will give you a clear idea of your goals and how to achieve them.
When can you Start Exercising
Once you get your doctor’s clearance, talk to your trainer about when to commence the sessions. Your trainer will go through your medical reports and evaluate your present condition and help you set a safe and achievable goal.
How Long will it Take to Regain your Former Body
The truth is that it is extremely rare for a woman to completely regain her post-pregnancy body with firm muscles and taut abdomen. Exercise can certainly improve your looks and help you tuck that jelly belly but it is difficult to achieve that taut look especially when the abdominal region tends to sag.
Usually, it should take you around nine months to one year to tone your body and regain your former looks somewhat. However, this again will depend on how regularly and intensely you can exercise and how much flab you want to shed.
How should your Plan your Meals
Proper nutrition is vitally important for you both during and after pregnancy. Unhealthy eating at this stage will just pile on the fat further whereas improper food will affect your healing process and also the quantity of breast milk you are able to produce. Your personal trainer inLylifieldwill give you a diet plan to follow that will contain all food groups necessary to improve your stamina and immunity. He will also advise you on what to avoid and how to control your indulgences.

on behalf of the new Italian Communist Party I congratulate you on the results KOE and Syriza got in the elections on Sunday 6 May and I wish you can use these results successfully to promote the struggle and the rebirth of the Greek popular masses.
As in other European countries but even more, in Greece the popular masses are suffering the consequences of the criminal manoeuvres and intricacies the institutions of the world imperialist system and the International Community of financiers and speculators and of the other great capitalists are carrying out in order to prolong the life of their system of social relations, despite the general crisis of capitalism for the absolute overproduction of capital, and in order to keep alive their system of international relations based on competition among countries, States and financial and industrial groups.
We Italian communists wish you will be able to use your electoral success to promote the establishment of an emergency government based on popular masses’ organization and struggles, able to mobilize the popular masses to carry out the necessary measures to relaunch the economic activity of your country on new bases, even if this violates financial system’s relations and rules imposed by the European Union and by its Central Bank, by the Monetary Fund and by the NATO.
We are sure that if you and the other communist parties and groups will open into it, you will have the active solidarity by communists and progressive forces of the other European countries and you will be able to defeat, in your country, the reactionary and fascist forces, both those openly sided with the European Union and its Central Bank, the Monetary Fund and the NATO, and those who play on the criminal activity of European Union and its Central Bank, of the Monetary Fund and of the NATO for promoting the reactionary mobilization of the popular masses.
A popular emergency government will mobilize in the reconstruction not only the popular masses born in Greece, but also the immigrants living in your country. If the Greek popular masses will be able to establish a government able to mobilize themselves in a common effort of reconstruction, they will meet no difficulties in mobilizing also the migrants for a work useful for themselves and for all the rest of the popular masses of the country and for building decent conditions of living. It is true for Greece what is today true for all imperialist countries; they are not the coming immigrants that create misery, mess and criminality in our countries. On the contrary they are the backwardness, the putrefaction and the criminality of the social regime of the imperialist countries that do not make possible the integration in decent conditions of the immigrants and throw them on the fringe of society to foster misery, mess and criminality already raging.
If you shall be able to start up such an enterprise in your country, you shall be a model also for the communists and the popular masses organized in other countries. But in that case Greece will be much more than a model. As a matter of fact Greece will break the chain the imperialist bourgeoisie and the clergy try to impose to the popular masse of all the European countries. Thanks to its action the unity the imperialist bourgeoisie has tried to impose to its orders will break, the European Union will break into pieces and they will be the popular masses who will find sooner or later better forms of relations, cooperation and solidarity.
We are working to take in the next future and in our country a way similar to that with this message we wish you to be able to take in your country. The communist conception of the world is not a dogma, but a guide for action!

“Now You Can STOP Your Scratching Your Head Because You Dont Understand Funded Proposals Even If You’ve Tried Everything Before!”
I Easily Put An END To My Lack Of Knowledge About This Tool And Started Enjoying Coverting Prospects Into Buyers And I'll Show You How YOU Can, Too!
Tuesday 9th of August
From The Desk Of Charles Toney
Full Time Internet Marketer
A
re you sick to death of living with the fact that all the successful marketers are using funded proposals yet you know nothing about it?
Are you annoyed by the hours and hours you put in trying to win people over... frustrated by the laclluster information youve been able to find on the subject... and just about DONE with the whole mess?
Then what you’re about to hear will be music to your ears...
Because I’m about to show you how to put an END to being confused by this topic once and for all, and enjoy the pleased prospects, better conversions, and a more successful business that you get as a result.
And trust me, I know exactly how... because I’ve already done it!
If You’re Still Struggling With Understanding How To Have Better Conversions, You Need To Read This Page Carefully!
I put an END to the frustration caused by low conversions, and now I’m enjoying a booming business, free of all the sleepless nights of worry!.
But let me back up a step...
It wasn’t that long ago that I was confused about funded proposals and how to use this tool like other very successful marketers do and it was becoming a worry that was a part of my daily life.
Funded proposals are basically the platform where good introductory products are offered at a very low price to potential prospective clients with the intention of further enticing or encouraging them to commit to making a more impactful purchase or commitment to the business.
BUT, that was really all I knew... I didn't have the info I needed to really make a go of it.
Make no mistake about it...
"I Was Going Crazy Trying To Figure Out How To properly Use This Marketing Tool"
I tried everything to put an end to my low conversion rates, but every solution fell short.
I’ll be willing to bet you know EXACTLY what I’m talking about, because chances are, you’ve tried them, too...
The information available to me was lacking and only confused me more.
You see... I understood that the initial item offered at the lower price which acted as the enticing tool would then function as the ideal advertisement for other core products.
And I knew that even if the client is not converted to join the business venture, at the very least he or she will now be a valuable and loyal customer.
But... I didn't know how to put it all together successfully!
So I Decided It Was Time To Take Matters Into My Own Hands
Clearly I was NEVER going to get anywhere if I relied on other people to solve this for me, so I decided that I’d just have to figure it out myself.
So I got to work...
Just Consider The Results I Achieved!
And as they say, the rest is history...
After a time of trial and error, my low conversion rates were gone!
No more fretting about business failure... No more sleepless nights... and no more confusion as to why my products sales and sign ups were low...
Just the happiness that comes from a successful business, more sign ons, and more and happier customers!
"Now My Goal Is To Help EVERYONE Rid Their Lives Of Not Understanding Funded Proposals..."
Then I got to thinking...
What kind of a person would I be if -- knowing exactly how frustrating using funded proposals is -- I didn’t try to help my fellow sufferers enjoy relief, too?
So I decided to pull together all of the steps, details, and instructions I used, turned them into an easy-to-follow system, and make it available to other people who were having the same experience.
Are you ready?
Introducing… Fantastic Funded Proposal!
This powerful tool will provide you with everything you need to know to be a success and achieve your goal of using and understanding funded proposals.
Use this information, and in a short time period, you’ll be enjoying:

"What’s It Worth To You To No Longer Have Worry About Being A Success?"
If you’ve been looking for help for long, you’ll know what other so-called solutions cost.
You can easily pay a ton for an expensive but ineffective solution, and have nothing to show for it but a dent in your bank account.

Coaches come to us in all forms. There are life coaches, career coaches, health and wellness coaches, business coaches, and of course there are coaches in sports. The wonderful thing about coaches, is they drive us to succeed. Self-pride, discipline, work ethics and that never-give-up attitude are instilled in us from coaches.
It is amazing how one person, one coach in your life, can make all the difference.
Coach Daryl Whittington was such a coach. He went beyond the call of duty to impact the lives of kids forever. He was a teacher, motivator and even a father figure. The book Coach Daryl's Colts: Going For Two by Corey McKinney tells his story.
Corey isthe CEO of anonprofit called GoFor2. Hisorganization goesout in the community and helpsothers in need,especially women and children.

Abstract
The sociocultural mythology of the South homogenizes it as a site of abjection. To counter the regionalist discourse, the dissertation intersects queer sexualities with gender and race and focuses on exploring identity and spatial formation among Black lesbian and queer women. The dissertation seeks to challenge the monolith of the South and place the region into multiple contexts and to map Black geographies through an intentional intersectional account of Black queer women. The dissertation utilizes qualitative research methods to ascertain understandings of lived experiences in the production of space. The dissertation argues that an idea of Progress has been indoctrinated as a synonym for the lgbtq civil rights movement and subsequently provides an analysis of progress discourses and queer sexualities and political campaigns of equality in the South. Analyses revealed different ways to situate progress utilizing the public contributions of three Black women interviewed for the dissertation. Moreover, the dissertation utilizes six Black queer and lesbian women to explain the multifarious nature of identities and their construction in place. Black queer and lesbian women produce spaces that deconstruct the normativity of stasis and physicality, and the dissertation explores the consequential realities of being a body in space. These consequences are particularly highlighted in the dissertation by discussions of the processes of racialization in the bounded and unbounded senses of space and place and the impacts of religious institutions, specifically Christianity.
The dissertation concluded that no space is without complication. Other considerations should be made in the advancement of alleviating oppression deeply embedded in United States landscapes. Black women’s geographies offer epistemological and ontological renderings that enrich analyses of space, place, and landscape. The dissertation also concludes that Black women’s bodies represent sites for the production of geographic knowledge through narrating their spaces of material trajectories of interlocking, multiscalar lives.

Plasticzooms finished its longest-to-date European tour on the 22nd of April in Budapest, at the Spring edition of the local anime & pop culture convention called Mondocon… well, actually with me being in charge of the show. Unfortunately guitarist Tom Takahashi was missing from the gig as he went down with some nasty virus infection a couple of days earlier and had to skip the tour’s last two dates, but the rest of the guys did their best to make the concert sound as perfect as possible: they recorded all the guitar parts back in the tour’s base in Belgium before departure and they played those from a laptop, channeled thou a guitar amp, so they could be as close to live guitar sound as possible.
It was the underground new wave band’s first time in Hungary and they were quite different from the (mostly visual kei or anime related) acts that played at the previous conventions, but fortunately the audience loved the show. The show that I honestly did not exactly know what to expect from musically: I got hooked on the band back in 2009 when they released their first album, Charm, an instant classic filled with dark, but groovy underground club favorites, that took their cues from ’80s post punk. However for its subsequent releases the band abandoned the dark post punk and went for a much more lighthearted synth pop / new wave sound… which is still present at their latest album, but they also started to incorporate many new influences into their music there, so, I really had no idea which sound will dominate the show.

The show centered around their latest, untitled album as they played nine of its ten tracks, along with a couple of old ones, that included a few surprises. There were only two older album tracks, Crack from Critical Factor (2013) and KMKZ from Starbow (2012), however they played two single-only ones: BUG from 2010, which turned out to be the oldest song of the set, and a pretty obscure one, Time In The Cellar, which was the B side of a special, limited release in 2015. And besides these they also played a truly excellent cover of To Cut A Long Story Short from Spandau Ballet… that they ended up playing again as the sole encore song (I guess due to Tom’s absence the number of songs they could play were limited). And interestingly, even though the set list did not include anything from Charm, still, the overall sound was probably closer to that album than to anything else they did since: it was all pure, groovy, heavily new wave influenced party rock with a somewhat dark tone. The older tracks were rearranged, while the new ones sounded much more edgy than on the album and delivered a real punch here. I’m pretty sure that most of the audience wasn’t that familiar with the band’s output and they mostly stayed for the show out of curiosity, but after just a few songs, pretty much everyone in the hall was dancing and partying. Earlier I just heard stories about what a great live band Plasticzooms is, but it turns out that all those stories were true. And while the new album is an interesting, but not perfect new chapter in the band’s history, the tracks themselves are definitely a great addition to their live repertoire.

In 1978, Congress directed the EPA to establish an SAB to provide scientific advice to the Administrator. The SAB is authorized to:
review the quality and relevance of the scientific and technical information being used by the EPA or proposed as the basis for Agency regulations;
review EPA research programs and plans;
provide science advice as requested by the EPA Administrator, and
advise the agency on broad scientific matters.
Most preliminary work of the SAB is done by subcommittees or panels focused on various environmental science topics. These groups are chaired by SAB members. Recommendations of subcommittees and panels are transmitted to the SAB for discussion and deliberation. Recommendations are forwarded to EPA only if the SAB determines that it is appropriate.

SAB charter
The EPA Science Advisory Board (SAB) charter is renewed in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA). The SAB was created in 1978 pursuant to the Environmental Research, Development, and Demonstration Authorization Act. The SAB’s charter has been renewed every two years.

The SAB, in its present form, was established in 1978 by the Environmental Research, Development, and Demonstration Authorization Act (ERDDAA) (42 U.S.C. 4365).
Predecessor bodies date back to the early 1970s. In carrying out the mandate of ERDDAA, the SAB provides such scientific advice as may be requested by the Administrator, the Committee on Environment and Public Works of the United States Senate, or the Committees on Science and Technology, Interstate and Foreign Commerce, or Public Works and Transportation of the House of Representatives.
Because the Science Advisory Board is a Federal Advisory Committee, it must comply with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) (5 U.S.C. App. C) and related regulations. Consequently, the Board has an approved charter, which must be renewed biennially, announces its meetings in the Federal Register, and provides opportunities for public comment on issues before the Board.

Guide to Core Web Vitals
What are Core Web Vitals?
Core Web Vitals are a set of factors that Google uses to measure the user experience of a webpage. Google’s implementation of them started in June 2021 and should be finished by the end of August.
There are three Core Web Vitals in total:
Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) measures how long it takes for the largest element on a page to load.
First Input Delay (FID) measures how long it takes for a user to be able to interact with a page.
Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) measures the visual stability of a page—observing what affects the layout.
These Core Web Vitals have been added to Google’s pre-existing search signals for page experience, which includes:
Mobile friendly
Safe browsing
HTTPS
No intrusive interstitials
If you want to improve your user experience and rankings, it’s absolutely essential that you optimise your Core Web Vitals as soon as possible. We’ll get to that in a minute!
Why are Core Web Vitals so important?
Google hasn’t introduced Core Web Vitals just to make your life harder. Though it might seem like another set of hoops that you’ll have to jump through, these metrics can help you drastically improve your website and your business.
They can affect your search rankings
Searchmetrics’ Core Web Vitals study found that “websites that currently rank well in Google tend to have higher Core Web Vitals (and related Web Vitals) scores”, which they believe will continue to be the case in the future.
What this means is that optimising your Core Web Vitals might have a positive impact on your overall rankings, which could potentially lead to more website traffic and conversions.
They can help you improve user experience
As important as good content is to a website, it’s the user experience that can make or break it. If your website is slow to load, takes a while to interact with and/or suffers from layout disruptions, your potential buyers aren’t going to stick around for long. But don’t just take our word for it! Let’s check the stats:
If a page’s loading time increases from 1 second to 3 seconds, bounce rate increases by 32% (Google)
If a page’s loading time increases from 1 second to 6 seconds, bounce rate increases by 106% (Google)
53% of mobile users will leave a webpage that takes more than 3 seconds to load (Akamai)
Almost 70% of consumers agree that page speed has an effect on their willingness to make a purchase (Unbounce)
Nowadays, no one has the time or the patience to wait for webpages to fully load. More importantly, no one has to wait anymore—people will always be able to find another website that has what they’re looking for, without the delay!
By ignoring your user experience, you’re all but encouraging any potential buyers that come your way to head to your direct competitors instead. If you work on optimising your Core Web Vitals, however, you can reduce the chances of this happening.
How do other websites measure up against Core Web Vitals?
After looking at the statistics in the above section, you’d assume that websites would make user experience and page performance a top priority, right? Well, whether it’s due to a lack of interest or general ignorance on the matter, it seems that a large majority of websites aren’t offering people the experience they want.
Searchmetrics’ Core Web Vitals study crawled a whopping 2 million URLs in total and found that 96% of all desktop websites didn’t achieve a good score in all Core Web Vitals. That means only a minuscule 4% of these websites managed to get a good score! As for mobile sites, less than 10% of those crawled got a good score in all three Vitals.
What’s causing this poor performance?
Website builders
If you’re using a website builder like WordPress or Wix, you’ll notice how difficult it can be to customise your templates once they’re live. Any changes that you are able to make are likely to affect your website’s performance and cause further issues along the way. In essence, you end up adding to your problem, instead of fixing it.
Additionally, many of the templates offered by these website builders tend to be of the cookie cutter variety, which means that you’re often loading elements that aren’t actually necessary for your individual website.
Plugins
Who doesn’t love a good plugin? Well, as it turns out, your users. As handy as plugins are, they can have a detrimental effect on your website’s loading time. If you’re using a large number of them on your website, it will slow things down drastically. Some of the plugins you’re using might also end up adding extra code to your website that is either difficult to optimise, or isn’t entirely necessary.
Unused JavaScript
Searchmetrics found that websites can save almost one second by removing unused JavaScript from their websites. You’ll often find an excess of this from third-party code like Google Tag Manager, Facebook tracking and Google Analytics.
Unoptimised images
You’d struggle to find a website nowadays that doesn’t come with an abundance of images. Though these images add extra pizzazz to your website, they can have a negative effect on your website’s loading time if they’re high in quality and come with a large file size.
It’s time to get ahead of your competition
One of the key takeaways from Searchmetrics’ study is that the current performance of most websites falls far short of what Google is looking for when it comes to user experience and page performance. They note that this particular fact means that it’s unlikely that Google will penalise everyone when we’re all at the same level. Letting out a sigh of relief? That’s not the response we’re looking for!
Why should you settle for being anything less than the best? As exhausting as you might find this entire ordeal, it’s the perfect opportunity for you to jump ahead and outperform your competitors. Not only will optimising your Core Web Vitals help you improve your search rankings, it will also help you curtail bounce rates and boost conversions!
Again, don’t just take our word for it!
A study by Google, Deloitte and Fifty-Five analysed mobile site data from 37 travel, retail, luxury and lead generation brands in Europe and the United States. They found that even a tiny 0.1 second change in load time can have an impact on every step of the user journey, which leads to an increase in conversions. In fact, they saw an 8% increase in conversions for retail sites, and 10% for travel sites!
How to measure Core Web Vitals
The next step on your agenda is to determine what your website’s user experience and page performance is like by measuring your Core Web Vitals.
Fortunately, this is an extremely straightforward process, as long as you’re using the right tools…
Google Search Console
If you head to Google Search Console and look under the tab ‘Experience’, you’ll be able to see how well your website is performing against the three Core Web Vitals. You’ll get two separate reports here: desktop and mobile.
Your Core Web Vitals Report will give you a breakdown of how well your website is performing and meeting the Core Web Vitals over the last 90 days. The data is broken down into red (poor), amber (needs improvement) and green (good).
Remember what we said about not settling for anything but the best? This comes into play here. To ensure your user experience is as good as it should be, you’ll want to get green across the board here.
Once you click on your desktop or mobile report, you’ll be able to get a closer look at the groups of URLs that are suffering from the same Core Web Vitals issues:
After clicking on these URL groups, you’ll be given a list of example URLs. When you click on them, you’ll be sent to the next Core Web Vitals measurement tool on our list: PageSpeed Insights. This will give you personalised recommendations for improving individual pages.
PageSpeed Insights
Unlike Google Search Console, which lets you look at your entire website’s performance, PageSpeed Insights focuses on individual webpages and their Core Web Vitals. All you have to do is paste the URL of the page you want to audit and voilà! In mere seconds, you’ll be able to view your Core Web Vitals assessment for both mobile and desktop.
As you can see, it’s broken down into:
Field Data: information that is collected from real users, provided by the Chrome User Experience (CrUX) Report.
Lab Data: information that is based on a simulation of what a user’s experience might be like on your webpage.
If your website is small and doesn’t receive a lot of traffic, Field Data might be unavailable in your report. This is because the real user information that it’s based on has to be anonymised. If there isn’t enough data to ensure that users remain unidentifiable, you’ll be told that you don’t have “sufficient real-world speed data for this page”. Fortunately, you’ll still have Lab Data to fall back on, which is almost as valuable.
The beauty of PageSpeed Insights is that it lets you hone in on the exact Core Web Vitals issues that are plaguing your webpages and offers solutions to help you fix them:
Lighthouse
Lighthouse is a website auditing tool that can be used to diagnose problems and offer up solutions to help improve the user experience and page performance of a website. You can run it in Chrome DevTools, or install the Lighthouse extension in Chrome.
Not only does Lighthouse measure all three Core Web Vitals—and offer up potential opportunities—it also provides audits for accessibility, best practices, SEO and much more. It then compiles all of the data for these audits to calculate an overall performance score:
How to optimise Core Web Vitals
We’re now going to delve a bit further into the Core Web Vitals, looking at what they’re measuring and the ways in which you can make improvements to your website to ensure you get a good score.
① Largest Contentful Paint (LCP)
LCP measures how long it takes for your website to render your largest element (image, video or text block) from the point of view of your user. In other words, it’s timing how long it takes for everything above the fold to load from the moment a user clicks on your webpage.
If a user clicks on your webpage because they want to buy a product, or they’re interested in reading one of your articles, they’re not going to stick around long if certain parts of the page are still loading after a few seconds. In fact, as far as Google’s concerned, to guarantee a good user experience, your largest element should load within 2.5 seconds!
How to improve your website’s LCP
Optimise your images
Whilst high-quality images serve to liven up webpages, they usually have a negative effect on loading times due to their large file sizes. If you don’t want to get rid of your images entirely, you need to compress them using a tool like Optimizilla or a plugin like Smush. Alternatively, consider switching to an image format like WebP, which allows you to serve high-quality images with much lower file sizes.
Preload your LCP image
Given that your largest element is likely to be the most important aspect of your page, it makes sense to load it as fast as possible so that the user can see it the moment they click on the page. By using ‘link rel=preload’, you can tell your users’ browsers to load the image first when rendering the webpage.
Not sure what your largest element is? That’s what the Core Web Vitals tools are for! Head to your PageInsights, scroll down to ‘Diagnostics’ and Bob’s your uncle!
Reduce unused JavaScript
Another way to improve LCP is by reducing unused JavaScript, and deferring loading scripts, until they’re actually needed. To identify this unused JavaScript, you can either use the PageSpeed Insights tool, which will list exact URLs, or consider running code coverage in Chrome DevTools.
Minify JavaScript and CSS
If you’ve got a lot of bulky or long JavaScript and CSS on your webpage, your users will end up encountering loading delays. To avoid this, you’ll want to minify it—this process involves removing unnecessary elements from the code, such as line breaks and comments.
Don’t let your hosting let you down
If you’re on a shared hosting server and dealing with slow server response times, you might want to think about shifting to a dedicated or cloud-based plan. To see what your server response time is like (ideally under 200ms), run a speed audit in GTmetrix.
② First Input Delay (FID)
FID measures the time it takes for a user to be able to interact with your website after clicking on your link. An interaction can be anything from a user clicking on a link, pressing a button or using the navigation bar.
Interaction, for obvious reasons, is a vital part of the user experience. If a user can’t interact with your website after a few seconds, they’re going to get annoyed and head to an alternative website. No one likes to wait around for anything nowadays, so if you can’t offer a fast solution (of around 100ms or less), you’re going to lose out.
The importance can vary from page to page, however. If you’re looking at content-heavy pages, like articles and blog posts, it won’t require much interaction from users beyond basic scrolling. When it comes to product pages, however, where you’re expecting the user to add something to their basket, a good FID score is vital.
How to improve your website’s FID
Reduce the impact of third-party code
If you’ve got a lot of third-party code running on your website, like Google Tag Manager, heatmaps and Google Analytics, it can have a huge impact on your FID. So, put everything under a microscope and carefully consider what you do and don’t need. If you’re not using something, or it’s no longer important, get rid of it.
Reduce JavaScript execution time
If you’ve got JavaScript that’s take a while to execute, it can slow down your entire page performance, which then leads to page unresponsiveness and your users being unable to interact with anything. You can speed up JavaScript execution by implementing code splitting, which only sends the code your users actually need at the very beginning.
Avoid long main thread tasks
The main thread is used by a browser to handle most code (parsing HTML, CSS and JS) and process user events. If this thread takes too long to execute something, however, it can lead to your page not responding to user interactions in a timely manner. To stop this from happening, find out how to minimise main thread work.
③Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS)
CLS measures how stable your webpage layout is. If you’ve got elements of your page that keep moving around as it loads (like pop-up ads and banners) then you’ve got a high CLS, which as you’ve probably figured out, isn’t a good thing.
If a user clicks on your webpage, intending to take a closer look at a product or a specific blog post, the last thing you want is for them to accidentally click on something else because the layout has shifted. Again, we cannot overstate this enough, you need to do everything you can to avoid annoying users or affecting user experience.
How to improve your website’s CLS
Include size attributes on images and videos
One of the reasons why the layout of a webpage can shift frequently is because your images haven’t been given a set size attribute. If you actually add size attributes, however, you’re helping your users’ browsers figure out how much space is needed for each image as the page starts to load—helping you avoid unnecessary shifts in layout.
Be specific with your layout
If you’ve got ads, iframes or banners on your page, you’ll need to reserve a specific place for them so that they don’t appear or disappear suddenly and shift the entire layout around as the page loads. You can do this by using containers with specified dimensions.
Optimise for font rendering
Downloading and rendering fonts can often lead to layout shifts in two ways:
Flash of unstyled text (FOUT): the font is swapped out for a new font.
Flash of invisible text (FOIT): the invisible font is on display until a new font as been rendered.
You can reduce the chances of this layout shift occurring by preloading your fonts with ‘<link rel=preload>’. You can combine this with ‘font-display: optional’, which will do one of three things:
Block: this will render invisible text, but switch to your chosen font once it finishes loading.
Swap: this will render text using a fallback font, but switch to your chosen font once it finishes loading.
Fall: this will render text using a fallback font.
Once you’ve made your improvements…
After making your way through all of your Core Web Vitals issues, you’ll want to return to Google Search Console so that you can inform Google that you’ve fixed the issues. You can do this by heading to your Core Web Vitals Report, clicking on the exact issue and then selecting ‘Validate Fix’.
Google will then need to monitor usage statistics for up to 28 days to confirm that the issue is fixed. Depending on the number of users that visit your page, they might not be able to verify the fix.
Final thoughts
Give yourself a huge pat on the back! You’ve managed to reach the end of our guide to Core Web Vitals without breaking a sweat or bursting into tears (we hope)! Though the process of optimising your Core Web Vitals can certainly get technical, you shouldn’t let it put you off doing the work.
Taking the time to hone in on what is negatively affecting your user experience and page performance will benefit your website in the long run. Not only can it lead to you jumping up the search rankings, it could help you draw in more website traffic and lead to an increase in conversions!
To make sure you’re staying on top of everything, you’ll want to measure your Core Web Vitals on a monthly basis. This will help you get the jump on any emerging issues before they can have a long-term impact on your website’s rankings.
If you’re not quite ready to sort out your user experience problems yourself, why not enlist the help of SEO specialists? Get in touch with Supersede Media today and we’ll have you moving up the search rankings and waving goodbye to high bounce rates in no time at all!

I travel very frequently and know all the perils of air travel, but after reading an eye opening article in Women’s Health I may invest in some hand sanitizer. Here are a few of their tips and mine to follow during this busy travel holiday season.
Flying at 37,000 feet can wreak havoc on your skin due to the low humidity in the cabin. I always drink a ton of water the day before I fly to try and hydrate. While in-flight I continue to drink water, which usually annoys the person sitting next to me because I have to goto the bathroom so much….. Invest in a facial mist (travel size only please) that you can spritz onto your face during the flight. I usually do not wear much makeup when I fly either, instead I will apply a heavy moisturizer ( WAKE UP CALL is my favorite) and let it set like a treatment.
Now that we have our skin under control let’s get to keeping healthy in flight. There are 200 other people using the bathroom, GROSS. The odds of one of them having a virus is very high. WASH your hands and use hand sanitizer. I am usually not a big proponent of hand sanitizer but on planes it is a must! Norovirus, made famous in the news by making entire cruise ships sick, can linger in the bathrooms of airplanes. Door handles, faucets and even the flush button can have this extremely contagious virus hiding on them. Whether you choose a hand sanitizer or hand wipes make sure it is an alcohol based product.
What about jet lag? Some people are more prone to it than others and I find that trying to stay on your regular schedule helps. Eat when you get hungry and rest when you are tired. Your body is a lot smart than you give it credit for. Sunlight plays a major role in jet lag by helping you body and brain adjust to time differences. If you leave the west try to avoid sunlight in the morning but enjoy some in the afternoon and vice versa going the other way. Again your natural rhythm and schedule is always the best. Listen to your body.
Don’t forget about your circulation. On long flights make sure to get up and walk around and stretch a little. Sitting for a prolonged period of time can cause stiffness and in some rare cases even a blood clot. If you are prone to circulation issues try wearing compression socks. I wear these to warm up before a race or marathon and when I fly. They are very warm and they keep your blood circulating. My favorite are Zensah in hot pink!
Travel safe this holiday season and please write in to us if you have any fun or informative travel tips to share!

App Store Info
Just about every mobile device has had an incarnation of this popular classic console game and there's no reason that SEGA shouldn't have brought it to the iPhone too. Iconic in its design and gameplay, the iPhone version of Sonic the Hedgehog 1 plays just as flawlessly as the Mega Drive version it's taken from.
A digital d-pad is used to run, spin and jump Sonic around each of the levels and the response has to be played to be believed. A major flaw for almost every mobile port has been the inability for the phone to run the game at the correct speed or provide adequate input. The iPhone version has none of these flaws.
Everything you've come to expect of Sonic is here. If you've played it before you'll get no more or less. In fact you'll get the whole game, which is rare for a mobile device as they often get a modified version to play. If the buttons are in your way you can also shrink the video turning your iPhone in to a miniature arcade machine.
Sonic the Hedgehog is a fast moving platformer that blasted out of the 90s and defined a generation of gamers. It's bright, clever and a must buy for classic gamers and anyone who wants a taste of Sonic as he should be - at full speed.

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton speaks at a Women for Hillary fundraiser Oct. 5, 2016, at the Hyatt Regency in Washington. (Andrew Harnik / AP)
Hacked emails show that Hillary Clinton's campaign was slow to grasp the seriousness of the controversy over her use of a homebrew email server and believed it might blow over after one weekend.
Two days after The Associated Press was first to report in March 2015 that Clinton had been running a private server in her home in New York to send and receive messages when she was secretary of state, her advisers were shaping their strategy to respond to the revelation.
Among the emails made public Tuesday by WikiLeaks was one from Clinton campaign spokesman Nick Merrill, who optimistically suggested that the issue might quickly blow over.
"Goal would be to cauterize this just enough so it plays out over the weekend and dies in the short term," Merrill wrote on March 6, 2015.
It did not, and became the leading example of Clinton's penchant for secrecy, which has persisted as a theme among her campaign critics and rivals throughout her election season. Clinton did not publicly confirm or discuss her use of the email server until March 10 in a speech at the United Nations, nearly one week after AP revealed the server's existence.
WikiLeaks began releasing on Friday what it said were years of messages from accounts used by Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta. He has acknowledged his emails were hacked. Podesta warned that messages may have been altered or edited to inflict political damage but has not pointed to any specific case of this.
Months after Merrill's message, the campaign was still preoccupied with emails. In May 2015, Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon alerted other staffers that the Justice Department was proposing to publish Clinton's work-related emails by January in response to requests by news organizations. Fallon, a former Justice Department spokesman, wrote that unspecified "DOJ folks" told him there was a court hearing planned soon in the case. The name and email address of the person who shared the information with Fallon had been deleted.
Donald Trump on Tuesday called Fallon's email "unbelievable," and his supporters said it showed collusion between the Obama administration and Clinton's campaign.
The dates of court hearings would have been publicly posted in advance on the court's docket. Fallon did not respond to a request for comment from AP. The Justice Department declined to discuss Fallon's email.
It wasn't immediately clear who hacked Podesta's emails, though U.S. intelligence officials last week blamed the Russian government for a series of breaches intended to influence the presidential election.
Through its Twitter account, the Russian Embassy in Washington has denied any role in the cyberattacks, suggesting U.S. officials are just "whipping up" anti-Russia hysteria.
The messages stolen from Podesta's account describe how Clinton's closest advisers considered responding to key events during the campaign, including the discovery of her email server and her congressional testimony over the deadly 2012 attacks on a U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya.
In emails from March 2015, Merrill suggested a strategy — ultimately nixed by Clinton herself — of having comedian Larry Wilmore and Bill Clinton joke during an event for the Clinton Global Initiative charity in Coral Gables, Florida, before having Clinton join them on stage.
Merrill laid out the scenario in emails to Podesta and other aides: "Wilmore could sit down with WJC and Chelsea and say something like 'Thanks for having me here, it's a pleasure. And I should tell you, I just emailed HRC (I hear she's a big emailer), and asked if she'd join as well. (Laughter).'" He added that Hillary Clinton could then walk out "to applause."
"It would be just light-hearted enough while giving her the opportunity to address this seriously, be a little conciliatory as discussed, and then get back to a discussion about CGI etc.," Merrill wrote in the email.
In the end, Hillary Clinton's team drafted talking points Clinton used at the news conference at the United Nations.
Clinton said she "fully complied with every rule that I was governed by" and that "there is no classified material" among her work-related emails.
Both of those statements were later proved false.
The State Department's internal watchdog concluded in an audit released that Clinton ignored clear written guidance that her email setup broke federal record-keeping rules and could leave sensitive material vulnerable to hackers. The FBI's recently closed investigation concluded that more than 100 emails exchanged through Clinton's private server contained information that was later determined to be classified.
As the email controversy escalated in the summer of 2015, Clinton herself seemed slow to grasp the continuing political damage. Communications director Jennifer Palmieri in August expressed concerns that Clinton "wasn't in the same place" on the issue as some on her campaign staff.
At the time, the political aides were working out details of revealing that Clinton had directed her staff to hand over her server and a thumb drive with copies of her emails to the Justice Department. Palmieri was writing other campaign aides to arrange for a Univision reporter to ask "a few questions on emails" during an interview that would otherwise focus on college affordability.
"As you all know, I had hoped that we could use the 'server moment' as an opportunity for her to be viewed as having take a big step to deal with the email problem that would best position us for what is ahead," Palmieri wrote. "It is clear that she is not in same place."
Clinton's email practices were not the only controversy her campaign's brain trust was addressing.
On October 2015, speechwriter Dan Schwerin circulated among top Clinton advisers a draft of her opening statement to the House Select Committee on Benghazi, to be delivered the following week.
The draft itself wasn't attached in the emails published Tuesday, but other messages showed how it was shaped, including a section referring to Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, who was killed in the Sept. 11, 2012, attack.
"We might consider softening the 'Chris did not believe retreat was an option — and neither do I' line," wrote Katherine Turner, a law partner of Clinton's personal attorney David Kendall. "I don't think we want to suggest that there was a commitment to be there at any and all costs."
Following Clinton's tense Oct. 22 testimony, Podesta proposed in an email that she could publicly joke, "I used to be obsessed with Donald Trump's hair, that was until I got to spend 11 hours staring at the top of Trey Gowdy's head," a reference to the slicked-back white coif of the South Carolina Republican who chairs the committee.
Other Clinton aides shot down the idea.
"I love the joke too but I think HRC should stay above the committee," adviser Jake Sullivan replied, "and especially above personal insults about it. She's got every inch of the high ground right now."

It is with great pleasure that Mendes Wood DM presents the first solo exhibition by Japanese artist Aki Sasamoto in Brazil. The show springs from a performance titled Wrong Happy Hour. For this project, the artist has gathered drawings, installations, videos and performances. Sasamoto’s practice draws on the common ground between sculpture and performance, using her body as an agent of tension between these two lines of research. Her installations arise from an examination that is not only aesthetical but also sociological.
Wrong Happy Hour was showcased for the first time in New York in 2014, following the artist’s observation that the tradition of meeting up for a drink after work was a quasi-religious ritual for the city’s inhabitants. From this, Sasamoto built a bar with two parallel counters, and wearing periscope glasses – that distort her vision – she interacts with bottles and objects. At a certain point, Sasamoto draws on the wall and writes the word ‘Romance’. With the use of diagrams, she questions: ‘How can I understand romance? I don’t really know what the opposite sex or any other person different from me thinks about.’
Sasamoto’s performances often deal with identity, family and social norms. She begins her research with everyday themes that surround her, such as people’s habits, mathematical concepts or food items, incorporating sculpture elements that are reproduced in the installation during the performance itself, which is turned into a standalone environment after her presentations. Her practice merges subtle themes from Japanese and American cultures. She attributes her impulse towards the ‘micro-handling’1 of objects to her Japanese upbringing, and sees the American influence in her appropriation of materials found on the streets and her ability to use different media.
Aki Sasamoto (Kanagawa, 1980) lives and works in New York. Her exhibitions include: Yield Point, The Kitchen, New York (2017); Shanghai Biennale 2016; Power Station, Shanghai (2016); Roppongi Crossing 2013: Out of Doubt, Mori Art Museum, Tokyo (2013); Whitney Biennial, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (2010).

A man named Melvil Dewey developed the Dewey Decimal Classification System in 1876. He thought that it would help libraries organize their books better if each book was given a number according to what it was about. That way, all books with the same subject would be close to each other on the shelf. That's what "classification" means.
How is it organized?
The word "decimal" refers to numbers that are based on 10 (ten). You will see that there are 10 basic categories in the Dewey Decimal system, and each of those categories is further split into 10 categories, and so on. The number 10 has always been a good number for people to use in counting things because we have 10 fingers!
How can I find things?
Each one of the 10 major categories in the Dewey Decimal system covers a different subject. For example, the 300 category includes everything about the Social Sciences, like Government or Law. The 800 category includes everything about Literature. Once you get used to how things are organized, you'll find it very easy to locate the information you're looking for.
Why is the Dewey system still used?
Melvil Dewey thought up this system just for organizing books, because there wasn't much else in libraries back in 1876. However, the Dewey Decimal system is also very good for organizing other kinds of information, like websites. Today, many libraries still use the Dewey Decimal system, even though they might have things like videotapes, compact discs (CDs), and computer files as well as books in their collections.
Should the Dewey system be reorganized?
You may notice that the Dewey Decimal system pays more attention to American and European subjects than to those of other cultures. Back in 1876, many people didn't understand the importance of a global perspective and learning about other cultures. The Dewey system still reflects that old outlook because it would be very hard for libraries to completely change how they are organized. Someday, though, we hope that the Dewey Decimal system will more fairly represent the diversity of our world.
Here are the ten main classes in the Dewey Decimal System:
000 Generalities
100 Philosophy
200 Religion
300 Social Sciences
400 Languages
500 Science
600 Applied science
700 Arts
800 Literature
900 History
Each of these 10 classes is subdivided into ten more divisions. If we use the 500 (Science) class as an example it is divided like this:
500 Natural sciences
510 Mathematics
520 Astronomy
530 Physics
540 Chemistry
550 Earth sciences
560 Palaeontology
570 Life sciences
580 Botany
590 Zoology
Now each of these divisions is divided again into ten more sections. If we use the 530 (Physics) section as an example it is divided like this:
530 Physics
531 Solid mechanics
532 Fluid mechanics
533 Gas mechanics
534 Sound
535 Light
536 Heat
537 Electricity
538 Magnetism
539 Modern physics
With the use of a decimal point, and extra digits after the point, each of these sections can be further subdivided to cover increasingly narrower subject areas. For example, for Electricity:
537.5 Electronics
537.534 Radio waves
537.5342 Long waves
537.5343 Short waves
The longer the classification number, the more specific the subject is. The shorter the number, the more general it is. So, on the shelves you will find that the more general books come first in the sequence, and as you move along the shelves you will find the books becoming more specialized.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Sneakers for Soldiers' mission?
The mission of Sneakers for Soldiers, Inc. is to provide properly fitted athletic shoes to deployed combat troops. Sneakers for Soldiers supports all branches of the military and prioritizes shipments to troops in Hostile Fire/ Imminent Danger Areas and Designated Combat Zones, that are in need of replacing their worn out sneakers.
Are all branches of the military supported by your program?
Yes, as long as the troops are deployed to Imminent Danger Areas and Designated Combat Zones where the impact to morale and physical well-being of the sneaker support is significant.
Does the Military provide sneakers for deployed soldiers?
The US Military has recognized the fact that sneakers are an essential item for soldiers and they are in the early stages of providing athletic shoes to new service members (recruits). However, deployed soldiers are currently not beneficiaries of this new program. Sneakers for Soldiers offers us all the opportunity to show our support for our deployed troops and to do so in a way that is practical and furthers the current efforts of the US Military.
What is unique about your program?
The uniqueness of our program is that the soldiers are able to select the brand and style that best fits their feet and needs from 9 high quality athletic shoes. Ordering is customized for each soldier. We then purchase the sneakers at a generous discount, through monetary donations that we receive.
How many sneaker styles do you offer?
We currently offer nine styles of popular brands of sneakers that were based on the recommendations of deployed soldiers. These high-quality sneakers are durable and built to hold up in extreme temperatures, harsh environments, rugged terrain, and daily exercise.
Do you prefer certain brands of sneakers?
Our mission is to support the troops. We do our best to fulfill their specific requests from the nine styles of sneakers that we offer and do not favor any manufacturer brands.
Can we send sneakers to you?
We do not accept sneakers (in kind donations) Why not? Because each soldier chooses the brand and style of sneaker that is best for their feet and needs. All feet are different. All needs are different.
How much does a pair of sneakers cost?
Our average cost is $75 (retail: $130 – $145). Our shoe supplier, Bryn Mawr Running Company, provides sneakers to us at a deeply discounted rate, effectively at cost. Your donation buys the soldiers more shoe per dollar than if you bought a pair of sneakers on your own due to the discount that we receive from Bryn Mawr Running Company.
How much does it cost to ship sneakers?
Shipping costs depend on the size and weight of box – average $8/pair.
What if I want to donate less than the cost of a sneaker
EVERY donation helps to purchase sneakers for our soldiers – EVERY dollar is appreciated.
How else can I help?
Spread the word about our mission throughout your communities and social media.
Reach out to us for fundraising opportunities.

In 2002, Richard Anthony found himself on the scientific committee for a series of Resource conferences (called the R-series) organized by EMPA. When reviewing papers submitted for an upcoming conference to be held in Geneva (R-02), he found far too many papers devoted to incineration and not enough tackling the issue at the front end. The director asked Richard what he would like to see instead and he said a workshop devoted to Zero Waste. Richard proposed that if EMPA could sponsor accommodation and waived registration fees, he would put a team of experts together and get them to Geneva.
The resulting (dream) team consisted of:
Dr. Bill Sheehan, Director of the Grassroots Recycling Network (GRRN)
Dr. Jeff Morris, expert on cradle-to-cradle and cost benefit analysis
Dr. Dan Knapp, President of Urban Ore a for profit Reuse Resale enterprise
Dr. Paul Connett, Chemistry Professor and noted international advocate for Zero Waste and sustainability
Bill Worrell, Manager of the San Luis Obispo Solid Waste Authority
Joan Edwards former head of New York City and Los Angeles City Recycling programs
Richard Anthony, Grassroots Recycling Network (GRRN) Board member and Zero Waste
With this agreement, Richard then had to find the funds to get them all to Switzerland. When he approached Dr. Bill Sheehan, Director of the Grassroots Recycling Network (GRRN), Bill said that he would help under the condition that this action was going to be more than an academic exercise, insisting that they found a way to help community groups working on waste at the grass roots level.
With the help of some activist groups in the UK (Greenpeace, Communities Against Toxics) they managed to set up a forum at Sussex University, in Brighton, Sussex to take place two days after the R-02 meeting in Geneva.
After the Geneva conference most of the newly created Zero Waste team traveled to the UK for the Brighton conference. This meeting attracted many grass roots activists fighting incinerators and landfills and others promoting recycling. Moreover, once the news got around, it attracted many decision makers from towns and counties from across the UK struggling with the waste issue. Over 100 people attended a very successful conference.
The First Zero Waste Dialog
The next day in a nearby hotel, activists, most of them part of the ZWIA team as well as experts from several other organizations, held a meeting chaired by Professor Robin Murray, teacher at the London School of Economics and author of two books on Zero Waste (Zero Waste and Creating Wealth From Waste). Together the team helped to form a Zero Waste coalition for the UK, and also set the wheels in motion for formation of the Zero Waste International Alliance (ZWIA). This meeting was what the ZWIA team later retrospectively called the first Zero Waste dialog.
The Second Zero Waste Dialog
In 2003, the second Zero Waste dialog occurred at a conference held by the Global Anti Incineration Alliance (GAIA) in Penang, Malaysia. It was the day of the announcement that the U.S. had started bombing Iraq. In light of this news, all attendees at the meeting expressed the need for a positive approach to stopping all pollution and wars over resources and agreed that Zero Waste was a really good place to start. This was the first truly international dialog.
The First Official ZWIA Meeting
The first official meeting of the ZWIA/ZWI Planning Group was at The Bulkeley Hotel, Beaumauris, Wales on the 19th October 2003. Goal of this ZWIA meeting was to establish an internationally recognized group of Zero Waste experts. The underlying principals and goals of ZWIA were quickly established, but how to make the group representative and still registered as a charity became an issue still unresolved today.
The Third Zero Waste Dialog
A third dialog took place in San Francisco in 2004. This dialog tied in with the recycling tours being organized by the U.S. National Recycling Congress and gave attendees a chance to see the San Francisco approach to zero waste. The meeting was held at the California State Office Building on August 25, 2004. Nearly 300 representatives from around the world came to the event to report on their progress and share the current strategies and available technologies. An agreement was reached that ZWIA should create an international planning board, a website, and a list serve.
The Fourth Zero Waste Dialog
A fourth dialog was attempted at the R-07 Conference in Davos, Switzerland in September 2007. A handful of the ZWIA team (a group from Italy, five Americans and two Romanians) had a successful face-to-face dialog, which was broadcast globally online. Attendees logged in from England, Hungary, Philippines, the U.S., and Australia. At the end of this dialogue there was a motion to approve the following resolution:
Support REVOLVE (a reuse operation in Canberra, Australia being squeezed out of business) and other local struggles for zero waste
Support efforts to keep organics out of landfills
Support efforts to pressure manufacturers and retailers to take responsibility for their products and packaging
Support efforts to persuade local authorities to adopt source separation and
Support efforts to persuade local universities to set up resource management training
This motion was passed, ratified via the ZWIA list serve, and reported the result to the R-07 conference.
The Fifth Zero Waste Dialog
The fifth dialog was held in Naples (Italy) in February 2009. The choice of Naples to host this event came as a direct result of the waste catastrophes Naples had experienced in 2008, which gave the city the nick name of “The City of Fires.” The international delegation brought a global focus to the waste problem in this area of Campania. More than 100 Italian activists (the majority from Naples itself) came to listen to presentations from around the world, including the U.S., Philippines, Canada, Bulgaria, England, Scotland, and Spain. The aim of the conference was to share knowledge and skills, to create positive action and support for communities fighting incinerators and landfills, and promoting Zero Waste in the Campania area as well as the rest of Italy.
Delegates also heard directly from Italian community representatives on their experiences of waste problems in the surrounding areas. The international delegation also took part in a demonstration and march through the city center of Naples. At the end of the march, Italian and international delegates met with the local authorities to demand a rethink on their plan to build four massive incinerators to solve the Naples crisis.
After intensive discussions between the Italian attendees and international delegation, the conference adopted a “Naples Manifesto” on Zero Waste and the “Global Principals for Zero Waste Communities.”
It was with enormous joy that ZWIA heard that on October 3, 2011, the newly elected mayor and vice-mayor of Naples have adopted a zero waste strategy for the city. This was an extremely courageous step on their part because it involves taking on the central Italian government, the regional government and the Camorra – all of which are intent on building more landfills and incinerators in the area.
The Sixth Zero Waste Dialog
In November 2009, the sixth dialog was held at the Asturias Hotel Puerto Princesa in the Philippines. This conference focused on the political issues of sustainability in both developed and developing economies. In particular, conference attendees examined the issue of waste management in terms of global warming. ZWIA speakers came from Europe, America, Africa, Asia, and India, and represented the latest thinking on sustainability without pollution during this world financial and environmental crisis. Present at the meeting were a number of individuals planning to attend the upcoming global climate conference in Copenhagen and much of the discussion was on refining the message that these delegates would take to this conference. The ZWIA board adopted the slogan that “the soil is the solution” as a way of tying together the triple goals of zero waste, zero warming, and zero toxics as well as the need to address these goals in the global efforts to “cool the climate.” The engagement of the global South in articulating the issue of climate change and management of world resources was a critical focus.
The Seventh Zero Waste Dialog
In October 2010, the seventh international dialog on Zero Waste was held in Florianopolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil. This meeting brought together several hundred educators and students to dialog about the new Brazilian Resource Management law and Zero Waste.
The planning group met and concurred that Grass Roots and Recycling Network (GRRN) should take the lead on financial management of ZWIA efforts, as they had done in the past. It was requested that meeting attendees join the ZWIA Listserv as this has become the primary means of discussing both local and global efforts in the movement towards Zero Waste.
The Eighth Zero Waste Dialog
An eighth dialog was held in 2013 in San Francisco (USA). Key Issues to discuss included Zero Waste branding for corporations and government facilities, adopting of Zero Waste plans at the community and business level and COOL (keeping “compostable organics out of landfill”). One outcome of this dialogue was the definite focus on “zero waste” standing for “no burn, no bury.”
The Ninth Zero Waste Dialog
From October 2-4, 2014, the 9th Zero Waste Dialog was held in Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada in conjunction with Zero Waste Canada. With over 300 innovators and influencers attending, this conference focused on management practices and technologies, aiming to connect industry leaders with zero waste enthusiasts and professionals.
ZWIA continues to grow as more and more people are realizing the need to shift from waste management to resource management as part of the transition towards a sustainable future. There can be little doubt that a sustainable society must be a zero waste society.

Teaching French: Connecting with other french teachers
There is always a need for french teachers in our district. We have a growing French Immersion program in multiple schools and a lack of teachers who are fluent in writing, speaking and reading in french.
As such, my grade 12 french has me more qualified than many, though not quite experienced enough to take on a french immersion class full time. I do teach on-call for french immersion and teach FSL (French as a second language)
There are so many awesome lessons available for teachers and our district offers teachers free french teaching classes where you practice french and have great taken-home units and lessons.
This is a great way to connect with french teachers and new-to-french teachers. I took the course and loved it! A lot of my teacher colleagues are in the current session and enjoying it.
Some online resources to get connected with french immersion and FSL educators and ideas?

Social Attachment The first test involves evaluating the pup’s acceptance of the strange place and its willingness to interact with the stranger. Ideal reaction is eye contact and interest in the stranger but no sign of nervousness in the interaction (we don’t want a “Protect me!” attitude), followed by visual investigation of the surroundings and then a return of attention to the tester.

Libya: Abduction epidemic continues as media worker still held after 60 days
As UN-led talks over the formation of a Government of National Accord continue, media worker Abdelsalam al-Shahoumi, taken at gunpoint from his workplace in Tripoli, becomes yet another victim of an abduction epidemic that has continued unabated. Amnesty International calls on the Libyan authorities and all those effectively in control on the ground, to secure Abdelsalam al-Shahoumi’s immediate and unconditional release, and ensure that he is protected from torture and other ill-treatment.
During the late morning hours of 16 December 2015, four vehicles which witnesses identified as belonging to the al-Burkan Brigade, pulled up to the New Media Development Centre in the Tripoli suburb of Hay al-Andalus where Abdelsalam al-Shahoumi was working as a multimedia specialist. Armed men stormed into the building, brandishing what they claimed was an official order for Abdelsalam’s arrest by the Army Chief of Staff of the Tripoli National Salvation Government. According to eyewitnesses, the men then took Abdelsalam away in one of their vehicles, stealing the company manager’s car as they left. Abdelsalam’s fate and whereabouts have since remained unknown, while his family and friends have not heard from him or those responsible for his abduction.
Amnesty International fears that Abdelsalam al-Shahoumi was abducted and is being detained solely on account of his opinion and activism. The organisation also fears that he may be at risk of torture and other ill-treatment, which remains widespread in both official and unofficial detention centres across Libya. A father of two, Abdelsalam al-Shahoumi was an active contributor to initiatives supporting freedom of speech and expression in Libya. He held critical views of the presence of militia forces in Tripoli and regularly shared these and other opinions with a long list of friends and associates in media. According to his family, the fact that the perpetrators have not attempted to contact them or request a ransom suggests that Abdelsalam al-Shahoumi’s abduction was in reprisal for his views.
“The worst thing is not knowing. As his father, I just want to know where he is.”
Father of missing journalist Abdelsalam al-Shahoumi
His father told Amnesty International that “the worst thing is not knowing. As his father, I just want to know where he is.” Under international humanitarian law, which continues to be applicable in Libya, the Tripoli authorities as well as any armed groups acting on their behalf, are under an obligation to inform families of the fate and whereabouts of their abducted relatives and ensure that all those deprived of their liberty are treated humanely and are allowed to communicate with their family.
Human rights defenders, lawyers and journalists have been the target of abductions, assassinations and threats since 2014. Many have been subjected to torture and other ill-treatment including beatings with plastic pipes, whippings and electric shocks. Abdel Moez Banoun, a political rights activist and blogger, has been missing for 566 days - since 24 July 2014. His abduction has been linked to his vocal opposition to the General National Congress’s mandate extension in June 2014, as well as for organizing demonstrations against the presence of militias in Tripoli. His fate and whereabouts have remained unknown since his abduction.
Abdelsalam al-Shahoumi’s abduction at gunpoint in the daylight hours of a popular Tripoli suburb highlights the impunity with which such abductions have been, and continue to be, carried out. To Amnesty International’s knowledge, not a single militia or security force member has been brought to justice for abductions, torture and other serious violations committed since the outbreak of armed conflict between rival Libyan factions in mid-2014.
Amnesty International calls for the immediate release of any individuals held solely for exercising their right to freedom of expression or on the basis of their origin, political opinion. The organization also calls on the Tripoli authorities, as well as all parties to the ongoing conflicts, to inform families of the fate of abducted relatives, and to publicly condemn, and take action to stop, human rights abuses - including abductions - from taking place

Derryl Gabel, born in 1970, began playing guitar late in life (compared to most virtuosos) at the age of 15. His early influences included Eddie Van Halen, Victor Cross, George Lynch, Warren Demartini, Yngwie Malmsteen, Tony Macalpine, Greg Howe, Vinnie Moore, Paul Gilbert, Jason Becker, Marty Friedman, Derek Taylor, Eric Johnson, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Joey Tafolla, and Michael Lee Firkins. The early work of Derryl was firmly rooted in the Shrapnel style of Neo-Classical shred, yet there was more to his compositions than just ripping on a scale after scale at 1,000 miles per hour. One of his earliest recorded works, "Victor," had Derryl firmly in league with the likes of Tony MacAlpine, Vinnie Moore, and Yngwie Malmsteen. Derryl first introduced this track when he was just 17 years old.
In 1992, Derryl had the great honor of dueling with guitar legend George Lynch on his solo release, "Sacred Groove" (Elektra Records). Derryl was given this honor after having been selected out of over 250 guitarists (they originally started with over 750 tapes which were trimmed down to 250 by John Stix) in a contest staged by Guitar For The Practicing Musician Magazine. Of the selection process, Mr. Lynch had this to say: "The point is, that after listening to over 250 tapes, there were very few that had an original style. I thought Derryl had an original style. He had all the techno-weenie chops happening, but I thought he was in a space of his own, so I brought him down to play on "Tierra Del Fuego."
As Derryl continued to hone his composition skills, he had gotten the attention of the now-defunct Legato Records, having had the track "Blue Fingers" featured on the compilation "Guitar on the Edge Volume #4" (1994) and the track "Nathaniel" featured on volume #5.
For 25 years now, Derryl has studied and continues to be inspired by Allan Holdworth, Scott Henderson, Pat Metheny, Frank Gambale, and Greg Howe.
Magazines that have covered Derryl's music include: "Guitar World" Sept. '90 (page 124), "Guitar for the Practicing Musician" May 1992 (page 168), and again in "G..P..M" Oct 1992 (page 11) and in Oct 1993 (pages 93 & 150)
Derryl has released two album's Visions & Dreams (Progressive Arts Music Label), Giant Steps, and has appeared as a guest soloist. He has also released over 20 instructional and performance courses, as well as three interactive guitar e-books. In 2013 Derryl had the great honor of being selected by Dweezil Zappa to conduct seminars at the Music Masters Camp in New York. Derryl taught there along with Tom Quayle, David Wallimann, Oz Noy, Chris Buono, James Santiago, Matt Picone, and Dweezil.

Diamyd Medical has signed an agreement with Janssen Research & Development, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) and the University of Alabama at Birmingham regarding the ongoing clinical trial “Effect of GABA or Combination GABA/GAD on the Progression of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus in Children”.
The agreement entails that Janssen Research & Development and JDRF will support the trial with approximately USD 600 000 to be used to study GABA-biomarkers and to increase the number of patients in the trial.
“The agreement is positive for the trial” says Ulf Hannelius, President and CEO of Diamyd Medical. “Our in-licensed GABA-technology has been shown to influence autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in a positive direction when used alone, and the combination GABA/Diamyd -vaccine has in a diabetes model shown a strong synergistic effect in preserving beta cell function. We look with greatest interest forward to this new collaboration.”
Diamyd Medical develops the diabetes vaccine Diamyd, an Antigen Based Therapy (ABT) based on the exclusively licensed GAD-molecule. The company’s licensed technologies for GABA and Gliadin have also potential to become key pieces of the puzzle of a future solution to prevent, treat or cure autoimmune diabetes, and also certain inflammatory diseases. At this time six clinical studies are ongoing with Diamyd. Diamyd Medical is also one of the major shareholders in the stem cell company Cellaviva AB.
FDA clearance
At the same time Companion Medical Inc, where Diamyd owns 8.5% and holds the distribution rights for its future products in the Nordic region, also received clearance from the FDA for the InPen system, an insulin administration system and smartphone application. Companion Medical’s InPen is cleared in the US for use with Ely Lilly’s Humalog or Novo Nordisk’s Novolog rapid acting insulin. The InPen application is cleared for Apple iOS and an Android version is planned for later in 2016. Companion Medical has also applied for a CE Mark for market approval in Europe.
Diamyd Medical ahas holdings in the medtech company Companion Medical, Inc., San Diego, USA and in the gene therapy company Periphagen, Inc., Pittsburgh, USA.
The shares rocketed
Diamyd Medical’s B-share is traded on Nasdaq Stockholm First North under the ticker DMYD B. Remium Nordic AB is the Company’s Certified Adviser.Following these announcements the shares of Diamyd Medical rocketed and the same day the shares rised with 49.3%.

Note from the blog owner: Joshua is my husband and he is a new contributor to the blog. This is his first post.
I’d like to express a few thoughts about the recent interactions between the Snowdens and their new prospective wife, Joselyn. There has been a lot said about it already (and much of it deleted already as well). I agree that it was certainly a mistake for Dimitri to have been intimate with Joselyn so quickly, especially given the agreement that he and Ashley already had in place about it – Dimitri himself says as much. It was impressive how open he was with Ashley about it all. Even tho it was uncomfortable for sure (and so much about plural marriage can be), he came forward about it on his own, and I think it shows how strong their marriage is already. Ashley handled the announcement with grace to spare (altho, I also choked on her tea just watching it!), and tremendous kudos goes to her for that. Ultimately, the resolution of this problem is between them and Joselyn,
So, a mistake was made. This no one doubts. But what exactly the infraction was, and how serious, are other questions. Actually, I think two offenses were potentially made by Dimitri. The first was toward Ashley, and the other was potentially toward Joselyn. Time will tell on the second.
There is a tremendous amount of imprecision in our language, and this can lead to controversy when it comes to sorting out the details of things. To make things worse, in many cases the imprecision has grown over the generations as meanings of words have shifted, while still retaining their historical significance. This is especially true in regard to words having to do with sexual intimacy. Some of the accusations hurled at Dimitri are “cheating”, “open marriage”, “not a true polygamist”, etc. But those insults are not words that we find in either the Bible or our civil codes. Rather than using these terms, it would be more helpful to actually name the sin, or the crime, that was committed.
Of course, the big two are usually adultery and fornication. So, was it adultery? My answer is, certainly not. Adultery can only happen when a married woman has sex with a man who is not her husband. That is the original, and best, definition of adultery (after all, it is the scriptural usage of the word), and as Joselyn was not married, then neither of them would be guilty of adultery. So, it must be fornication then? My answer is, not at all. Fornication (as used in the scriptures) is referring to prostitution (and potentially other things – but that is a different post), and since Dimitri probably didn’t even pay for the date (the tab was likely picked up by TLC), I think they are both safely clear on this charge as well. I realize the meanings of these words have been changed by our modern society and that the strict scriptural usage of these words has largely been lost to us – but I’ve always been a – reject the philosophies of men mingled with the scriptures – kind of guy. I’ll do a separate, more detailed post at a later date about the scriptural usage of these terms.
If you outright reject what I have said thus far as too repulsive to even consider, well, to each their own. I claim the privilege of living according to my own conscience, and allow you the same. If you are still considering things, then you may be asking, “Well it sure seems like something is wrong here, what is it then?” His first offense is simply that he violated the agreed order of things which he and Ashley had put in place. As Ashley has already put so well, he only has to answer to himself and to her about that.
Ashley knows how hard Dimitri works to support and care for his family. She knows how loving he is to his children, and to her, and I think anyone watching the show can see these qualities in him as well. He is a loving husband and a devoted father. She does not forget all the good in him for the sake of one mistake. In fact, she feels like, “there’s really nothing to forgive” and that’s good enough for me.
Now, what about the possible offense towards Joselyn? The scriptures do say something about what happened. Not that the Snowdens are necessarily concerned with what the scriptures may say – as I realize that they are not especially religious people (please correct me if I am wrong here), but this will perhaps be of benefit to some of the fans who may be concerned with the scriptures. Here it is:
Exodus 22: 16 And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
You will notice that this verse is about an unmarried woman (and who is not engaged to be married), otherwise the intimacy would be adultery. The sin associated with this act would essentially come if there were a lack of follow thru – he should endow her to be his wife. Premarital sex is a crime if there is no intention to marry, or if it leads the woman along when there is no intention of marrying her. This is the main deterrent against premarital sex in the Bible. If a man has sex with a woman, then he was supposed to add her to his family and support her as a wife. If a man can’t handle adding a wife to his family (whatever the reasons may be), then he shouldn’t be sleeping with single women.
I hope Joselyn stays, and I hope they can work it out. I think they are a potentially amazing fit. I know Joselyn has received advice online that she should, “Drop that Zero, and marry a Hero.” The truth is, Dimitri is not a Zero (ask any woman in her late 20s or 30s what the dating pool is like). I don’t think Joselyn could do better than the Snowdens (this is a compliment to the Snowdens, and not an insult to Joselyn).
So, there you go. You thought I was saying that intimacy between unmarried people wasn’t that big of a deal, but it just may be that I think it’s more serious than many of my readers do.
See here for a better date between Dimitri and Vanessa Cobbs. It’s a very refreshing change.

Dimitri and Ashley aren’t married in any sense of the word. So they’re all having premarital sex.

This principle used to be self evidently true and almost universally acknowledged. I think a large reason why it isn’t any more is because modern birth control methods have divorced sexual intercourse from producing children.
If every sexual encounter had the real potential to result in a pregnancy, I highly doubt Dmitri and Joselyn would have escalated their physical intimacy so quickly regardless of intent or future commitments etc.

I think your commentary is spot on. It is an unfortunate side effect of our modern society, with its numerous methods of birth control, that sex, marriage, children, and family are all taken with significantly less seriousness than they were in former generations. Many will take this as a positive development, but I think this view is extremely foolish and short-sighted, and (if continued) will inevitably lead to the collapse of western culture and society as we know it.

I am a bit lost at what you have wrote. The Snowdens aren’t married. They said so themselves. The Snowdens do not want to be married so that both women will have equal standing. And that equal standing would be as concubine rather than wife.
Also, could you please tell me what happens if Dimitri decides not to add Joselyn to his family as his concubine? It would still be that he had premarital sex with a woman he neither proposed to nor was willing to add her to his family. So wouldn’t that be adultery? Moreover, Dimitri agreed to the terms he and Ashley has set. Going against those terms is breaking his words with the woman he loves. I’m sure there are rules in the bible about breaking promises and agreements whether verbal or written.
Finally, a lot of people keep calling Dimitri’s affair with Joselyn a mistake. It was clear that he was desiring Joselyn in the previous episode. A lot of viewers saw this and made comments about it online. As someone who was raised in a religious setting, I know there are teachings about how to avoid temptations and such. If Dimitri felt himself desiring to sleep with Joselyn and willfully use that single dating as a cover to sleep with Joselyn (in other words, he planned in his mind that he wanted to have relations with Joselyn and used dating as an excuse to do so), how is that an accident?
And, as someone who was raised Christian and became Muslim, I would like to point out how bad alcohol was in that setting. Dimitri mentioned Joselyn throwing back alcohol and how impressed he was. Alcohol takes away a person’s senses and leave a person’s soul open for sinful deeds. Would Joselyn have slept with Dimitri had she been sober? I am by no means saying Dimitri forced her or assaulted her. Just saying that the alcohol probably prevented Joselyn and Dimitri from thinking about the major consequences of their actions (hurting Ashley and breaking an agreement between two committed people). The overindulgence of alcohol lead to sins people would probably never have made if they were sober.
All in all, interesting post.

I notice he has no reply to your post. There is no refuting that the Snowdens said themselves they are not religious and they are not married. Funny how this blogger is supposedly well versed in the Scriptures yet supports this sham as not being premarital sex.

Sarah,
You have many interesting points, and I apologize if I do not get to all of them here. I would disagree that the Snowdens say they are not married. It is actually quite the opposite. They say they are married. However, they also say that they are not married in the eyes of the state, and those are very different things. He calls her wife. She calls him husband. They live together, share finances, share a bed, have and raise children together. They are married. They are husband and wife. Concubine may be technically correct, but in practical terms there is no difference. I’ll have a more lengthy post about what constitutes marriage one of these days.
Dimitri’s breaking the agreement between he and Ashley carries the punishment agreed upon between he and Ashley. Agreements between individuals may be written, verbal, or perhaps even understood. In any case, it is between them. If Ashley thought it was a serious enough offence that she would leave him over it, I would support theaking an agreement between people is decided by the people involved (of course, if they cannot agree, then they may appeal to some higher judge or mediator to help them settle their dispute, but I digress).
I don’t have any idea about the extent of Dimitri’s premeditation. However, it was still a mistake in any case. I don’t think using the word “mistake” necessarily means that it was an accident. Mistakes can be premeditated.
Agreed that alcohol may have played a role in their poor choices in this instance.
Thanks for commenting.

“If Ashley thought it was a serious enough offence that she would leave him over it, I would support that. ” – But what about 1 Cor 7:10 about a wife is not to leave her husband? There seems to be no qualifications to thiiving it double importance? Your thoughts?

A very excellent question. Verse 10 clearly says, “a wife must not separate from her husband” (this is the NIV), but I’m not sure that this is an unqualified statement. The next verse says, “But if she does…”. Verse 11 also says that, “a husband must not divorce his wife”, but even Jesus gave a valid reason for divorce (fornication – more on this later). Later, in verse 12, it does give a qualification; it says that a man must not divorce a wife – as long as she is willing to live with him.
Verse 13 says the same thing but for the wife.
It is true that verse 12 and 13 mention unbelieving spouses, but I think these commands are equally applicable to all marriages. I think the message is to take marriage seriously. Divorce should not be a trifling thing, and, despite the potential difficulties, spouses should not be thrown away as long as they are willing to stay and work towards living in peace. However, if differences become irreconcilable – and that is a very sad thing – and the wife is no longer willing to live with her husband (or the other way around according to these verses), then separation or divorce may be an option.
1 Corinthians 7:10-15 (NIV)
10 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband. 11 But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife.
12 To the rest I say this (I, not the Lord): If any brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her. 13 And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him. 14 For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy.
15 But if the unbeliever leaves, let it be so. The brother or the sister is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace. 16 How do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or, how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?

Good commentary and I agree with what you say. I, too, was hoping that despite a rough start they would be a match. Sadly the error was compounded.
What in your opinion is the penalty for a man who fails to “surely endow her to be his wife”? Or is the penalty that the rest of the community considers them to be married even if they themselves do not (and the formerly single women now off limits to all other men)?

Good question! The scripture says that the man owes the woman’s father the price of a bride, or dowry. This is where the word endow comes from – it means to pay the dowry. Deuteronomy 22:29 seems to set that price at 50 shekels of silver. This was quite a hefty sum actually; it was at least several months worth of pay (and maybe more than a year’s wages for some).
Your point about the community is probably also very valid. The couple may have been viewed as if they were married. I’ll write some more thoughts about this in another post.
Thank you for your insightful comments.

Friendly Bible discussion here. Not intending to argue.
I think the 1 Cor 7:11 instructions in the event of failure do not mitigate that the behavior in the previous verse is wrong. Meaning that just because there is a contingency plan to limit the damage, it does not follow that it is now ok to cause the damage in the first place.
As far as the unbelieving spouse leaving, I am not sure there is anything you can do if your spouse lure, I believe we must always remember the greatest commandment, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”. So which course of action is _most pleasing_ to God?
1. “You are right. He broke a rule. I support you leaving.”
2. “Youhing I have learned from studying God’s view on marriage, is that whether monogamy or polygamy, one thing he really hates is divorce (Malachi 2:16).
And even if she leaves, it seems to me that she would now be un-marriagable as marrying a divorced woman is adultery (Matthew 5:32), right? It is as if the spiritual bond of marriage is permanent and a divorce is mitigate that the behavior in the previous verse is wrong. Meaning that just because there is a contingency plan to limit the damage, it does not follow that it is now ok to cause the damage in the first place.”
I can definitely support this reading of the passage, and I would completely agree that staying together is the best in the large majority cases. However, even believers can be abusive (perhaps an argument could be made that they are not then true believers, but that is a separar as judging when things become miserable, or when the misery becomes too great, or when the covenant is broken to the point of nullification – I think that would be between God and the parties involved. In some cases I think divorce can be the lesser of two evils, but that’s real. Sometimes our choices are not between good a which I am glad. I am simply stating that I support the individual freedoms of spouses to set most of the terms of their own relationships.
“As far as the unbelieving spouse leaving, I am not sure there is anything you can do if your spouse leaves anyway, but it also seems to me significant that it is the _unbelieving_ spouse leaving. It seems to me a reach to apply this as justification for a believing spouse to leave. A believing spouse should be in submission to the Lord and do the right thing.”
Now here is something to consider – neither of the Snowdens are believers (as far as I know), so does this passage even apply to them? Anall that they do – and perhaps especially in difficult situations. However, as I said above, perhaps leaving is the right thing in some situations. If that is hard to imagine, perhaps an analogy will be useful [and I know how much people love my analogies :-)]. The Lord is the husband (or at least betrothed) to Israel in the Old testament, and betrothed to the church in the New Testament. The infidelity of his people is compared to adultery or fornication. It is wrong for believers to leave their husband, who is the Lord, and go serve other gods. However, at least in the New Testament sense, God supports people leaving their first husband, and coming to join the body of his bride, if their first husband was Jupiter, or Marduk, or (insert other pagan deity). In other words, God supports divorce, at least in some spiritual sense, if it involves leaving the worship of other gods and exchanging it for worshiping him. I don’t know, maybe that’s useful, maybe not.
“In a larger picture, I believe we must always remember the greatest commandment, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”. So which course of action is _most pleasing_ to God?
1. “You are right. He broke a rule. I support you leaving.”
2. “You are right. He broke a rule. I admire and respect you for forgiving him and keeping your vows even if he failed to do so.”
I am thinking #2 is the right way for a Christian to respond.”
Agreed.
“It seems to me we should always throw our support in doing the difficult thing and not the easy thing, especially if that difficult thing is the most pleasing to God. And one thing I have learned from studyings anyway, otherwise how could this be adultery by your own definition?”
Too much there to give my full comments on. I mostly agree. I will elaborate on my views in a future post.
“Would love to know your thoughts if you care to continue the discussion.”
There you go. Thanks for the great discussion.

2022-05-01 0 By
With the rapid development in recent years, Chinese automobile brands have begun to have a certain influence in the world, especially with the development of new energy vehicles. Domestic cars are getting rid of the hat of low price and low quality, and moving toward the development path of high quality and cost-effective.With better and better quality, more and more advanced technology, coupled with more affordable prices, many domestic cars have been sold to the overseas market.According to the data of China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, the export of automobiles in 2021 will be 2,016 million units, with a year-on-year increase of 1.0 wt, accounting for 7.7% of the total sales volume, up 3.7 percentage points compared with last year.Specifically, passenger car exports reached 1.614 million units, up 1.1 times year-on-year, and commercial vehicle exports reached 402,000 units, up 70.7% year-on-year.It is also worth mentioning that this is the first time for China to export more than 2 million cars, which has been hovering around 1 million for many years, reaching a new milestone.Among them, the top five Chinese auto companies in terms of export sales in 2021 are SAIC Passenger Car, Chery Group, Great Wall Motor, Geely Automobile and Changan Automobile. These are well-known auto brands in China and leading auto companies in China, with excellent performance in both market sales and overall reputation.Of course, it is very surprising that SAIC won the top spot with 290,700 cars exported in total, breaking chery’s 18-year reign.In addition, according to the official statement, SAIC passenger car products have entered 66 countries and regions, including 17 countries among the top 10 single brand, product comprehensive strength is very strong.Saic’s success in passenger cars is largely due to the support of the MG brand, which mainly serves overseas markets such as the United Kingdom, Australia, Mexico and India.In particular, the monthly sales volume of MG cars in the UK and Australia reached more than 4,000 units, and the monthly sales volume in Mexico also reached 2,610 units, setting a new monthly retail record there.However, in the Indian market, THE MG brand has been in a state of short supply, its MG HECTOP, MG ZS EV and MG GLOSTER and other models are highly sought after.In the global market, MG ZS and MG5 are the most popular, with export sales of 22,852 and 10,995 respectively in November last year. In the domestic market, MG ZS is positioned as a small SUV. The price range of cash models is 788,800 yuan to 112,800 yuan, with the highest discount of 16,000 yuan, which is a very affordable car.In terms of power, the car is mainly equipped with a 1.5-L four-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 120 HP and a peak torque of 150 N · m. The transmission system is matched with a 5-speed manual or CVT continuously variable transmission.In addition, some models are equipped with a 1.3-ton three-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 163 HP and peak torque of 230 N · m. The transmission system is matched with a 6-speed manual transmission.However, the most popular overseas version is the pure electric VERSION of GM ZS, which has been updated in the overseas market with a new appearance and interior, improved battery and increased range. It is suitable for more families and is very popular with British people.However, the domestic model has not yet been modified, with a cash price of 119,800 yuan to 149,800 yuan and a range of only 335 kilometers.What’s more, the new GM ZS EV is one of the top 10 SUVs to buy in the UK this year.Compared with MG ZS, MG5 is more popular in China, especially since its replacement in 2020. With its sporty fashion design, affordable price and dynamic performance, MG5 is deeply loved by young people.The current price range of the cash MG5 is 679,900 yuan to 999,900 yuan, with a discount of 3,000 yuan. In the past year, the cumulative sales volume has been 94,085 units, making it MG’s best-selling model.In terms of power, the car is equipped with a 1.5-L four-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 120 HP and peak torque of 150 N · m, and a 1.5-t four-cylinder engine with a transmission system matching a 5-speed manual or CVT continuously variable transmission.The latter has a maximum power of 173 HP and a peak torque of 275 N · m. The drivetrain is matched to a 7-speed wet dual clutch gearbox and has a 100km acceleration time of just over 8 seconds.In general, the two models of MG can continue to sell well in the overseas market. In addition to their excellent product strength and high cost performance, they also have a certain relationship with the fact that MG was once a British automobile brand. In the early stage, they have accumulated a good market reputation, a broad mass base and a relatively perfect sales system.At present, MG focuses on the young market in China, and its models are designed for young consumers. If you like, you may wish to pay attention to them.After finishing MG, let’s talk about Chery Automobile. The success of Chery Automobile is inseparable from quality and technology. In China, Chery has the title of “man of science and technology”.Quality is just the “stepping-stone” for China’s automobile export, and technology is the “pass” for the international market.Thanks to these two advantages, Chery automobile has won the title in export for 18 consecutive years and become the “name card of China”.At present, in the overseas market, the best-selling models are The 7, 3 and 8, of which the first two months of the stable export of about 3,000 units.The Tiger 8 also performed well. When it was launched in Brazil in 2020, it was widely praised by Brazilian consumers and professional media. In that year, it was selected as the “Best Medium SUV of the Year” by UOL, an authoritative Media in Brazil, beating ford Collar and Jeep Guide.It’s worth noting that the Tiger 8 sells locally in Brazil for 156,900 Brazilian reais.Ruitiger 8 is also very popular in China. Although it is positioned as a medium-sized SUV, its starting price is less than 100,000 yuan. It offers 1.5T, 1.6T and 2.0t engines for consumers to choose from.The engine has a maximum power of 197 HP and a peak torque of 290 N · m, surpassing some 2.0-ton engines.In addition, in order to enhance market competitiveness, but also derived a tiggo or dingle PLUS 8 models, more fashionable modelling design of the atmosphere, more luxurious interior atmosphere and richer configuration, listed in the general consumer demand, in the past 2021 years, tiggo or dingle 8 series of accumulative total sales hit 160000 units, is China’s best-selling midsize SUV in the independent brand.And the Tiger 7 and Tiger 3 are even more remarkable, currently in Russia, Iran, the Philippines, Qatar, Peru, Ukraine, Kuwait and other places on the market and a large number of fans.It is understood that Chery has established six research and development bases, 10 overseas factories, more than 1500 overseas dealers and service outlets in the world.Since acquiring Volvo and geely cars, brand image and popularity worldwide did a lot of ascension, its one after another in the Middle East and north Africa, South America, southeast Asia and other 40 countries, including geely bean as it is the most popular PRO and bo, last November, two car export 7690 and 2991 respectively, achievement is outstanding.In the domestic market, a number of geely’s cars are in full flower, from emgrand, Bin Yue and Bo Yue in the early stage to xingrui, Xingyue L and so on. With relatively affordable prices and the support of Volvo technology, Geely Auto is developing at a high speed, with increasing sales volume and becoming a national automobile brand step by step.Changan also unwilling to lag behind, in the early 90 s, chang ‘an had begun to overseas market layout, deep tillage changan for many years in the overseas market is mainly in South America, north Africa, southeast Asia, the Middle East and other countries, including changan CS75, outstanding quality and great spatial experience, love by overseas customers.Great Wall motor has also achieved excellent performance in Russia, South Africa, Australia, Chile and other regions, especially Haval H6, whose owners are all over the world, a real national god car.In the end, we used to say that chinese-made cars copied joint venture cars and had problems such as poor quality, high fuel consumption and weak power. These did exist 10 years ago.However, in 2022, the strength and sales volume of Domestic cars have proved themselves, not only unique design, leading the fashion of The Times, but also caused many joint venture car enterprises to imitate and learn from.At the same time in the intelligent science and technology far ahead, especially in the field of new energy, dare not say firmly in the first, but the first two levels of no problem.Of course, we can not be proud, independent brand development road is still a long way to go, we only achieved a stage of victory, the future still need to work hard.

Now that I'm on break and have a chance to breathe, I'm taking a little time to reflect on how the school year is going so far. I always find it helpful to reflect on my successes and focus on my future goals and priorities while I have the time and energy to think about it with some proper perspective! So here is my mid-year reflection, if you're inspired to share your own I'd love for you to do so in the comments!
My "wins"
1. maintaining my vocal health
I won't say my voice is in top shape, but I can definitely still sing and speak in my normal range right now and that is HUGE! I am not kidding when I say this was my number one priority going into November / December this year. Last year I lost my voice for over a month (and barely had it for about a month on either end of that) this time of year and I was miserable- as in it was physically painful to do my job. I made sure to be more conscious of not pushing my voice both in and out of school, and I made a few deliberate choices in the interest of saving my voice as well: I said no to church choir, I asked my principal to buy me a megaphone for my outside duties, and I rested my voice as much as possible every weekend in the fall and winter. This is usually the worst time of year for my voice so I am celebrating my success, but I'm going to continue to be mindful through the rest of the school year so I can maintain my vocal health through the rest of the winter too!
2. including Ramadan/ Eid in my holiday sing-along
My whole-school holiday sing-along is definitely still a work in progress (read about that in this post), but I have spent a couple of years trying to find a way to include a recognition of Ramadan in a meaningful way that students would enjoy, and I feel like I did that this year. The students who celebrate Ramadan and their families in our school community were so happy to see themselves reflected in our preparations, and in some of my upper grade classes the students voluntarily started sharing about their fasting and other ways they celebrate and the rest of the class responded with genuine excitement and interest. It was the absolute best outcome I could have hoped for!
3. banner year for choir
I teach pull-out choir classes for 3rd-6th grade, and this semester was by far the best I've ever had with my choir classes at this school. I made a point of going around to individual students that I thought would be interested but hadn't signed up yet when the deadline was approaching this year, and got a tremendous response- my 3rd and 4th grade groups were the largest they have ever been, and my 5th and 6th grade group was double the normal size! Not only that, they were all incredibly motivated and focused- I was so nervous about having these giant groups but there were very few disruptions to rehearsal. In the 5th and 6th grade group in particular, every rehearsal was magical. We did challenging literature, singing in multiple languages, parallel harmony, and with dynamic contrast, and we had fun doing it. I really really really hope the magic continues this spring!!
4. parent communication
I finally got myself set up on ClassDojo by getting grade level teachers to add me to their classes, and it has been a fantastic way to communicate quickly and easily with parents. I've used it to communicate with individual parents when a child had a difficult time in class, but mostly I've used it to send little video clips of things we're doing in class, or send announcements to everyone when our concert got snowed out!
My "wishes"
1. lessons for self-contained classes
I almost put my self-contained special education classes in the "wins" too- I'm actually quite happy with how much I've learned as I'm teaching some self-contained classes that are completely different from any class I've ever taught before this year. But one of my goals for the rest of the year is to continue to learn more about the students in these classes and learn how to teach them more effectively- I know there's still so much more to learn.
2. pushing aside toxicity
This school year has been full of toxic negativity from other adults for some reason. I've had a few very difficult interactions with parents and seen a lot of colleagues treat me (and other "specials" teachers) like a lesser teacher. I'll continue to work to build respect for myself and my program, but the main thing I want to focus on is to not let that toxic negativity get to me so much! When I step back I can see that there are hundreds of parents that have lots of positive things to say about their child's experience in my class, and have had very productive conversations with me when there was a problem we needed to tackle. I also have plenty of colleagues who treat me like the professional equal I am. I want to learn to not let a handful of negative interactions affect my self-image or my mood.
How about you? Whether you choose to share publicly in a comment or not, this is an effective, easy way to take stock of where you are in the school year and get some perspective before heading into January. What are your wins and wishes?

Some of the most powerful people in the tech world are dumping buckets of ice water on their heads. No, they haven't lost it. They're doing it for charity.e stunt is a part of a campaign to raise money to fight amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as the motor neurons disease. Those who take the ice bucket challenge get to challenge three other people to do the same within 24 hours or donate to the ALS foundation (hopefully, they'll do both!)
Zuck, who was challenged by New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, called out Bill Gates, Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg and Netflix CEO Reed Hastings to take the challenge. You can watch him throw water over himself here.

The big dark green leaves become yellow and then red in the autumn. Its wood is appreciated because its growth is very fast (faster than the Sessile Oak). This tree is very important in forestry in France. It is also planted widely in parks and gardens alone or in rows.
Plant, or reforest Red Oak, Northern Red Oak, Champion Oak, Quercus rubra, quercus borealis – Foresters Guide
1) The Red Oak, Northern Red Oak, Champion Oak (Robinia pseudo-acacia) is it suitable for my land? The Red Oak generally grows on acidic grounds, which are well supplied in water. It is very sensitive to summer drought. The Red Oak does not tolerate grounds with winter water logging, the presence of limestone in fine soil, and thin grounds where the summer drought can be important. It appears to be sensitive to late frost and to snow. This genus is very competitive towards other species like the Sessile or the Pedunculate Oak. The Red Oak has an important regeneration as well as a good tolerance to shade as a young plant and has a fast start in growth. It can be found in areas up to 800 m in altitude.
2) Which planting density for my Red Oak, Northern Red Oak, Champion Oak plot? (Quercus rubra, quercus borealis)
The planting density is the number of plants planted in one hectare (acre). Here it means determining the initial number of young plants and to choosing their repartition in the available space.
The planting density is defined by the gaps in between the lines as well as the spacing in between each plant on a same line.
It is the basics of the silvicultural path which must lead to a final trees’ population of quality and to the fulfilment of the land’s owner set goals.
Advice: When choosing the density, think about the width of the tool which will allow the maintenance of the gaps in between the lines. The space in between the lines must allow clear passage for a tractor-drawn, maintenance tool.
For the Red Oak (Quercus Rubra):
- Several options are possible: the normal density required is 1200 to 1600 plants/hectare.
- A low density of 400 plants/hectare for enrichment or as a side variety.
3) How to prepare the soil to plant Red Oak, Northern Red Oak, Champion Oak (Quercus rubra, quercus borealis)?
In Silviculture, working the soil is a key element in the success of planting. The root system of the tree must take rapidly where planted. Whether the work is done mechanically or manually, we recommend working the soil in its depth for optimum planting.
4) How to plant the Red Oak, Northern Red Oak, Champion Oak (Quercus rubra, quercus borealis)?
a- Receipt, storage and preparation of the plants before planting
- Upon receipt, place the crates side by side, on a flat surface so as there is no air circulation underneath. Choose a shady spot protected from wind;
- Maintain a good humidity level of the plants on the crates placed on the edges,
- Plan for the possibility of watering if planting is delayed or if the plants require water,
- In case of frost, do not handle the plants and if frost is forecasted for several days, place mulch on the edges.
b- Planting
Our team of professional planters use a planting cane to place the earth-balled plants in situ. This ergonomic, light tool allows quality, quicker planting work. It is also possible to carry out a traditional planting work using a pickaxe or a spade
In all case, you must:
- Dig a hole a little bit larger than the earth-ball ;
- Position it well in the hole;
- Cover it entirely;
Finally, the worker will tamp down the soil carefully with its foot. It is forbidden to press strongly or again to heel-butt the plant to avoid crushing the earth-ball and damage the root system of the plant.

5) How to limit weeds on my Red Oak, Northern Red Oak, Champion Oak plot (Quercus rubra, quercus borealis) ?
During the first years, it is essential to eliminate all self-propagating plants. Not controlled they are going to be in competition with your plants and are going to deprive the young trees of the vital elements they require to grow (water, light and nutritional elements). You must therefore eliminate mechanically this unwanted competition until the trees are big enough to be able to dominate it.
Two types of operations are possible after planting:
Manual clearing around the plants
It is in fact acts often carried out using portable thermic Strimmers or billhooks to clear plants on a line or around the plants themselves.
Mechanical clearing of the space in between the lines
These actions are done using cutters and flail mowers, horizontal or vertical cutters, mounted on mini excavators or tractors. As a result, they cannot be undertaken outside the spaces available between the tree lines (seedlings or plants).
6) How to protect my young False Acacia plants from wildlife (Quercus rubra, quercus borealis) ?
There is a necessity to protect the plot as soon as the population’s density of Cervidae (deer and roe deer in particular) risk leading to significant damage such as undergrowth of the plants or friction of the stems. Sometimes, the setting up of plants’ protection is also necessary as soon as the rodents’ population (rabbits, hares, coypu, voles...) are locally important.

Part 1—Determine your social style (i.e. rational, idealist, guardian, or artisan) using the Keirsey Temperament Sorter II. Tell us which social style you are. Comment on the self-assessment and whether or not you feel the assessment seems valid for you. Explain why or why not.
Part 2—Respond to the following selling scenario using what you have learned about adaptive selling.
You are an experienced executive “coach”—you work directly with executives to help them become more satisfied with their work and more effective as leaders. If you need more background on business coaching, you can visit the website of the International Coach Federation.
In this scenario, the human resources director at a large company has asked you to contact one of the company’s executives because she feels he could use your services. Your sales goal on this first call is to get the executive to agree to see you for a follow-up meeting where he can “try out” the coaching process.
Assume the executive has a different social style than yours. For example, if you are an expressive, you will call on an analytical, an amiable, or a driver. Describe your sales approach with the executive as you try to gain a commitment for the second meeting. As much as possible, describe in a brief dialogue what you would say and other techniques that you would use to “adapt” to that prospect’s social style. Explain why your approach is appropriate for that prospect’s social style.

Say What You Feel, Brother: Black Men and Understanding Emotions

My dad was 15 years old when I was born. He was a Black boy bringing up another Black boy during a time when crack, AIDS and institutional racism were destroying the lives of people who looked like us in our Camden, N.J. ’hood as well as across the nation.
“Sweet Daddy,” as he was called, lived a life shaped by the impulse to survive. He didn’t have time to redefine manhood or the freedom to dream of a life unchained from rigid social norms that dictated what Black masculinity should look like.
Growing up with my dad was a lesson in how restrictive Black masculinity is for many males. How could I cry or express fear when the Black boy charged with raising me was taught to contain his tears and drown his apprehensions? How could I grow to love and respect Black girls and women when the Black boy who loved my mama used his fists, rather than words, to communicate his frustrations to her?
So many Black men live as if our lives are tombs. Our emotions, aspirations, longings, anxieties, complexities, mistakes, failures and imaginations are buried along with our truest selves. But the costs of living unauthentic lives are hefty. We are denied the ability to heal, to lead healthy relationships, to make amends for our errors, to be intimate, to be fully human, to be alive.
My Black daddy wasn’t simply at a disadvantage because he was so young when I was born; society failed him by telling him he needed to be something other than vulnerable, free-spirited and honest. As a result, I believed the same for most of my life.
Alas, there’s nothing unmasculine about learning to embrace our complexities, to share our feelings and love ourselves and others as we see fit. Black men and boys need the freedom to truly live, and I do my best to live in that truth each day.

Mama’s Boy
By Jonathan Wall
I’ve never been good at dealing with emotional pain. I maintain low expectations of people to protect myself from being hurt and rarely let anyone get close enough to me to disappoint me in the first place. Hard conversations and arguments with loved ones? I’ll avoid them like the plague. When all else fails, I run to my mother, my personal and invincible superhero—that is, until one recent incident …
On an otherwise uneventful Saturday night, I was pulled over by the cops during a visit to my hometown of Raleigh, N.C. Within seconds of my conversation with the two White male officers, it became apparent that they’d pulled me over to find a reason to have pulled me over.
The next morning, deeply saddened by what had happened the night before, I started to explain the details of my trauma to my mother. Tears filled her eyes and and she began to pace the room in circles, crying. “Why do we get treated like this? she asked. “When is this world going to change? What are we supposed to do?” I had no answers.
I was (selfishly) disappointed that Mom was so emotional when I’d expected her to help me process my pain, not to be overcome by her own.
As I sat silently, unable to console my mother, I finally realized how I’d put her in the same “strong Black woman” box where so many Black women are placed. How many other Black men have done the same thing? How many of us look to our mothers, sisters, lovers or even our daughters to shoulder the weight of our emotions without fully considering their own?
I have since apologized to my mother. I have also faced the reality that I might not ever become “good” at dealing with emotional pain independently and will likely continue to rely on my mother’s support as I confront it. From this day forward, however, I will do so in a way that leaves room for her to express her own emotional vulnerably and that acknowledges how the fullness and complexity of her humanity make her the superhero that she is.

Blueprint for Better Manhood
By Kiese Laymon
A number of us who organized pushback to the My Brother’s Keeper initiative back in 2014 gathered recently in upstate New York to evaluate all that has happened since it was announced. We were in the midst of planning a curriculum for a series of summer workshops for Black boys, and central to our discussion was the work we need to do to get programming that addresses gender and sexism into schools and other spaces for young people nationwide.
During this session, one member of our group suggested we talk about our personal relationships to what journalist/activist Esther Armah has branded as “toxic masculinity.” He said dealing with this epidemic meant we needed to consider the ways we’d been taught that being a man requires us to be cold, calculating and harmful to women and ourselves. For me, that meant reckoning with my experiences as both a survivor of sexual violence and a former perpetrator of emotional violence. I found myself speaking words I’d never spoken and hearing words I’d never heard before in the presence of a multigenerational group of Black men of varying sexual orientations and identities, and opening up in ways that, perhaps, I had only paid lip service to in the past.
This experience was an important reminder that Black men who are organizing and strategizing around issues of race and gender must be mindful to confront their own issues with manhood in order to be effective. We have to come into this activist work with a commitment to honesty: honesty about what we’ve experienced, and honesty about how we have been perpetrators of the same flawed masculinity we wish to challenge. Without that commitment, all our efforts at modeling healthier ideas of manhood for Black boys will be hollow. A better, safer world is possible, but if we cannot be the change we wish to see, then it simply cannot exist.

A Mommy Makeover is more than just a tummy tuck. This surgery combines several different surgical procedures. A mommy makeover is designed to counteract the physical effects of childbearing, restoring and enhancing your body contour and appearance. Depending on your wishes and needs, this may include addressing and improving the look of deflated or sagging breasts, weakened abdominal muscles, abdominal skin excess, and deflated buttocks. A mommy makeover is an individualized plan for meeting the goals of many women after they have given birth.
Surgical Options with a Mommy Makeover
Breast Augmentation
Many women would like to increase the size of their breasts. Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure to enhance the size and shape of a woman’s breasts. With a range of breast implant sizes and materials, breast augmentation surgery offers a unique opportunity to customize the shape of your breasts.
Breast Lift
After pregnancy, the breasts may lose their youthful shape, position, and firmness. Breast sagging or drooping occurs as a result of the loosening of the skin and ligaments within the breast tissue. This is often associated with an enlarged nipple-areola area that points downwards. A breast lift can correct the size of the areola as well as give you a more youthful and uplifted profile.
Liposuction
A liposuction procedure is an option that contours the body resulting in a more balanced shape. Liposuction offers a powerful means of removing fat that is resistant to diet, exercise, or weight loss and to recreate the desired curvature of a feminine body.
Hi-Definition Tummy Tuck
This body-shaping procedure was developed by Dr. Agha and is his signature Tummy Tuck surgery. Dr. Agha will recreate an hour-glass contour of your abdomen, applying many of the aesthetic features of the ideal abdomen, as seen in the extensive before and after gallery.
Brazilian Butt Lift
A Brazilian butt lift is a procedure that is designed to fill the buttocks with your own fat so that the final overall shape is a lifted and rounded contour. It involves harvesting your own body’s fat from the flanks, hips, lower back, thighs, or abdomen and transferring it into the buttock tissue. Because the areas receiving liposuction are now leaner and sculpted, your full, round buttocks will become the beautiful highlight of your sensuous new shape.
View Our Extensive Before & After Photo Gallery
All of our procedures are listed below in the extensive gallery that we have created for the ease of the viewer. If you are seriously considering plastic surgery, before and after photos can say a thousand words. They can give you a good idea of the possible results and offer a preliminary indicator of a surgeon’s experience and skill level.

Patient Testimonials
Dr. Agha and his staff truly feel like a second family to me. I revealed my biggest insecurity to him and his team, only to be met with sincere respect and absolutely no judgment or criticism. I had a tummy tuck, lipo on the small of my back and fat transfer from that lipo to my buttocks. I was completely prepared for recovery, as they well informed me of what to expect so there were no surprises. The results exceeded both of our expectations as he is just as excited about them as I am. I have recommended him to absolutely everyone I know, and others who are just beginning their journey with their own self improvement. He is the most qualified surgeon in the state of California (believe me, I have checked), and has even pioneered certain procedures that are imitated in the state and I’m sure throughout the country.
