History of Canadian Power and Sail Squadrons / Escadrilles canadiennes de plaisance (CPS-ECP)
"Canadian Power and Sail Squadrons / Escadrille canadiennes de plaisance (CPS-ECP) is an organization of recreational boaters with over 20,000 active members. CPS is headquartered in Toronto, Ontario. Its volunteer instructors help recreational boaters improve their boating safety knowledge as well as their vessel handling and navigation skills. CPS offers boating safety courses every year and provides qualification for the Pleasure Craft Operator Card (PCOC). Its patron is HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Canadian Power Squadrons was founded in Windsor, Ontario in 1938 after a group of boaters travelled to the Detroit Power Squadron to take the United States Power Squadrons Coastal Navigation Course. Upon their successful completion of the course, they formed the Windsor Power Squadron, closely followed by the formation of Squadrons in Sarnia, London and Toronto. CPS now has 166 Squadrons in all provinces and the Yukon Territory."
(Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Power_and_Sail_Squadrons, viewed 18 September 2017.)
The Power Squadron concept was originated by sailors returning from the First World War, where they had learned the importance of formal training. They wanted to pass along their good seamanship skills and knowledge to fellow boaters. Over time, CPS-ECP courses incorporated sailing too, and the name of the national organization changed to reflect the educational needs of the whole community of Canadian recreational boaters, power and sail.
History of Charlottetown Power & Sail Squadron
Blue Heron Power & Sail Squadron was chartered in 1961
PEI's first Squadron was established by the Canadian Power Squadrons, as it was then known, on an application from 15 Island CPS members. The Warrant was signed by Donald E. Wood (S), national Secretary. Alex R. Neville G.P., Chief Commander.
The original charter was cared for by Henry Scales until 2004, when it went on display at the Charlottetown Yacht Club. The charter reads, "Canadian Power Squadrons. Squadron Warrant. Be it known that upon application made pursuant to resolution of the Governing Board of Canadian Power Squadrons, a Squadron has been constituted, known as Charlottetown Power Squadron."
We confirmed with CPS-ECP headquarters that the official start date of the Squadron was 02 June 1961. In 2009, National staff found in old minutes that Charlottetown Squadron's Regulations were approved on June 2, 1961. This is the only official record we can find regarding the start of the Squadron. The Squadron's number is 05-01: 05 for Atlantic District, and 01 for the first Squadron in the District.
These were the charter members when the Squadron was formed in 1961 as Charlottetown Squadron:

Charles Clough: The Way to Clufffalo
University at Buffalo, SUNY
Charles Clough, Metron, 1998, Enamel on masonite.
March 31–May 19, 2012
University at Buffalo Art Gallery, Center for the Arts
The State University of New York at Buffalo
www.ubartgalleries.org
Charles Clough’s experiments with additive and subtractive paint applications are often filtered through an array of media and information technologies. His invocations of the aura of painting and its reproduction explore issues of time, authorship, authenticity, and appropriation. The Way to Clufffalo chronicles Clough’s lifelong artistic pursuit that he refers to as Pepfog, an acronym for the “photographic epic of a painter as a film or a ghost.” The exhibition features over 100 collages, paintings, artist books, sculpture and video that illuminate over 40 years of artistic production. A significant donation of more than 400 Clough works to the UB Art Galleries by renowned art collectors Herbert and Dorothy Vogel will constitute a major portion of the exhibition.
Buffalo has played a critical role throughout the second half of the twentieth century in nurturing experimental cultural production from Abstract Expressionism onwards.
In 1974, Charles Clough, along with Robert Longo and Cindy Sherman, was one of the founding members of Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center located in Buffalo, New York. Clough made the most of the raw industrial space by gluing cutout photos of his eyes enhanced with paint to the brick walls to create the eerie effect of people being watched. His exuberance for Abstract Expressionism, however, was always foremost in his mind. When Clough left Buffalo for New York City in 1978, he embarked on the C-Notes, which involved finger painting over his personal photographs and art book reproductions, photographing and enlarging them, and then applying another layer of paint, only to repeat the process, potentially ad infinitum. Working wet into wet, Clough loosened the compositions of art historical giants like Titian into playful swathes of color, engaging in a daring duel with his forbearers, as one misstep could easily turn the colors he deftly swirled together in rhythmic motions into mud.
In 1985, Clough was commissioned by the Brooklyn Museum to create three paintings for their cavernous lobby. His inspired solution to tackling the immense scale of the space was to invent the “Big Finger” tools: padded discs of varying sizes attached to sticks, which he used to spread high-gloss enamel onto large-scale canvases and sheets of masonite. The “Big Finger” paintings, with their cosmic vastness, vortices, and stormy appearances, channel the sublime energy of awesome, spiraling universal forces that also captivated nineteenth century romantic painters such as Caspar David Friedrich and J. M. W. Turner. They also continue the performative investigations of artists in the 1960s such as Yves Klein, Georges Mathieu, and Kazuo Shiraga, whose intensely physical acts of painting involved whole bodies or body parts to fling or move paint (and, in some instances, mud) around, drawing attention to the materiality of the paint and the temporal dimension of creation through comically exaggerated mark making.
Public Programs at the Burchfield Penny Art Center
Monday, April 16, 7 pm
Charles Clough will present an illustrated talk as a forty-year report on art and life. Presented by Buffalo State’s Visual Arts Board and funded by the Bacon Award Speaker Series.

The event is organized in conjunction with the Annual Conference for the Theoretical Archaeology Group (TAG). For more information, visit: www.cas.buffalo.edu/tag2012/
Public Program at UB Anderson Gallery
Saturday, May 19, 1 to 3pm
Charles Clough guides a group art-making session to produce a mural-size painting using his “Big Finger” tools during a Parking Lot Paint Party.
The exhibition catalog is funded in part through the generosity of individuals. Support for programs provided by Schuele Paint Company, Inc. UB Art Gallery, Center for the Arts, is funded by the College of Arts and Sciences, the Visual Arts Building Fund, and the Seymour H. Knox Foundation Fine Arts Fund.
The University at Buffalo is privileged to have two art galleries dedicated to the university’s mission for academic excellence and service to the community. Each gallery presents a year-round series of exhibitions, providing students and the broader community easy access to thought-provoking art, visiting artists and stimulating educational programs. Collector and gallery owner David K. Anderson, son of legendary New York gallerist Martha Jackson, donated the UB Anderson Gallery building, along with over 1,200 works of art, to the University in 2000. As home to the University at Buffalo’s permanent art collection, the UB Anderson Gallery is a museum that manages and exhibits the school’s visual resources and serves as a venue for scholarly exhibitions. UB Art Gallery, Center for the Arts is a non-collecting institution that has a pedagogical mission to present and interpret temporary exhibitions that examine cultural and socio-political topics informing current art practices. Its core exhibition program consists of six to eight exhibitions a year, providing a dynamic forum for contemporary artists, as well as faculty and students across disciplines, to showcase research and artwork through exhibitions, projects, and events.

Rusty Lemorande is an American screenwriter, director, actor and film producer, who created the 1989 version of Journey to the Center of the Earth. One of his first major jobs was production executive for the comedy Caddyshack. Lemorande proposed commissioning a gopher puppet in order to add, through additional shooting, a continuing story arc for the Gopher and the Bill Murray character. Lemorande soon joined up with Barbra Streisand to produce Yentl, for which they shared a Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy. Lemorande wrote the film Electric Dreams, then followed it up by co-writing and producing with Francis Ford Coppola and George Lucas the Disney 3D theme-park film Captain EO, starring Michael Jackson. It was Lemorande who proposed adding physical effects (such as smoke, strobe lights and fiber optic stars) to the film.

Brenda Portman
"Portman delivers flawless performances throughout with plenty of flair, bringing to life Laurin's imaginative and demanding scores."
Choir & Organ, Sept/Oct. 2016
-The American Organist Magazine
"Brenda Portman performs this demanding program with polish, security, and esprit...she possesses solid technique and authoritative musicianship..."
The American Organist, Nov. 2016
Brenda Portman is an enthusiastic advocate of Laurin's music...all her performances reveal the quality of the music, the skilful writing and the myriad tone qualities available from this organ.
Organists' Review, Sept. 2016
Concert Organist, Composer
Following a decade of successes in performance competitions, and now with her compositions increasingly in demand, Brenda Portman has established a well-respected dual career as both a concert organist and composer. She serves as Resident Organist at Hyde Park Community United Methodist Church in Cincinnati, Ohio, where she is also the executive director of the church’s renowned Organ Concert Series. She is the organ instructor at Xavier University in Cincinnati, and also teaches organ and piano privately.
Raised in Grafton, Wisconsin, Brenda’s earliest musical studies were at the piano with her mother, Cheryl Heck, and later with Clarice Wysocky of Grafton. Her organ studies began in high school, also with her mother, and with John Behnke at Concordia University. She furthered her study of the organ and church music with Edward Zimmerman at Wheaton College (B.Mus.Ed. 2002), Douglas Cleveland at Northwestern University (M.Mus. 2003), and with Roberta Gary and Michael Unger at the University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music (D.M.A. 2016), where she received a full scholarship as first prize winner of the Strader Organ Competition and served as a teaching assistant for the organ department.
Between the years 2006 and 2016, Brenda received numerous awards in organ competitions: from First Place in the Albert Schweitzer Organ Competition in Connecticut (2006) to Finalist and Audience Prize winner in the Sursa American Organ Competition at Ball State University (2016). In October 2014 she was the only female American organist to compete in the prestigious Canadian International Organ Competition in Montréal. Her performance there led to a collaboration with acclaimed Canadian composer Rachel Laurin and a recording entitled "Pilgrimages: Organ Music of Rachel Laurin Inspired by Sacred Themes," which was released in 2016 on the Raven label. Other prizes include First Place in the Arthur Poister Organ Competition (2007), First Place in the Bank District British/American Organ Competition (2009), performing a winner's recital at St. Paul's Cathedral, London, and Third Place in the Rodgers North American Classical Organ Competition (2012). She has also been a finalist in the Fort Wayne National Organ-Playing Competition (2010) and a semifinalist in the American Guild of Organists National Young Artists Competition in Organ Performance (2010).
Several of Portman’s compositions have won awards as well. Elegy for organ solo won first place in the Twin Cities AGO Composition Competition in 2016, and Monument for organ solo won third place in the District of Columbia AGO Composition Competition in 2019. She won second place in both the women’s choir and children’s choir divisions of the University of Notre Dame’s 2019 Liturgy Alive! Composition Competition (Laudate Dominum for SSA/organ, and a hymn: O Mystery of Night’s Horizon Setting). She has received a number of commissions for organ and choral works in recent years, including a solo organ piece for the 2020 AGO National Convention in Atlanta and a choral anthem for adult & children’s choirs for the inaugural year of the new Dobson organ at Bruton Parish Church in Williamsburg, Virginia. Her compositions are published by Sacred Music Press/Lorenz, Augsburg, Paraclete Press, Selah, and Wayne Leupold Editions. Her concert settings of hymns for solo voice and piano, highly acclaimed by many professional singers, are available at Sheet Music Plus, as are various unpublished works.
In 2017 Dr. Portman was awarded the AAGO certificate (Associate of the American Guild of Organists), and received the AAGO Prize for the highest exam score, as well as the S. Lewis Elmer Award for the highest score on both the AAGO and FAGO exams combined.
Generated from her doctoral research on minimalism and twentieth-century Dutch organ music, Dr. Portman’s article “The Eclectic Landscape of Ride in a High-Speed Train,” about the above-named composition by Ad Wammes was published in December 2015 in The Diapason. Another article, “Minimalism or Not? A Closer Look at Ad Wammes’s Miroir,” was published in August 2017 in The American Organist. Other recent activities include serving as a coordinator and instructor at the 2016 Pipe Organ Encounter Advanced (POEA) in Cincinnati, adjudicating local music competitions, and presenting workshops on contemporary organ repertoire.

Michael Phelps, PhD
Dr. Phelps is Norton Simon Professor; Chair, Department of Molecular and Medical Pharmacology; Director, Crump Institute for Molecular Imaging at UCLA.
Phelps earned B.S. degrees in chemistry and mathematics (Western Washington State University), and a Ph.D. in chemistry (Washington University, St. Louis).
In the area of technology, Phelps invented the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanner with his post doc at the time, Edward Hoffman. With colleagues Simon Cherry and Arion Chatziioannou, he invented a miniaturized preclinical PET scanner, microPET, to provide a pathway for in vitro biological sciences to translate their discoveries to in vivo in animal models of disease, and then into molecular imaging of the biology of disease in patients. Further, with his UCLA colleagues, he invented a PC controlled small, self-shield cyclotron with automated synthesis of radiolabeled imaging probes for PET that formed the basis of the worldwide distribution of PET radiopharmacies.
With UCLA colleagues and students, Phelps developed numerous in vivo assays for PET that provide measurements for, and images of, biological, biochemical and pharmacological processes, from gene expression and signal transduction to rates of various biochemical reactions from metabolism to DNA synthesis, as well as pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics for drugs. He has employed these assays to study normal biological processes of various organ systems, as well as the biology and biochemistry of cancer, neurological disorders, autoimmune-diseases and pharmacology of drug interactions, in patients and animal models of disease. These assays are then transitioned to clinical and pharmaceutical research and to molecular imaging diagnostics of the biology of disease in patient care.
At UCLA, Phelps developed the first clinical PET center, and was subsequently appointed the Chief of the Division of Nuclear Medicine in the UCLA School of Medicine. He led a national effort with faculty from medical schools across America to gain FDA approval and reimbursement for PET molecular imaging diagnostics of the biology of disease with the help of the Congress (Senators Stevens, Kennedy & others). This resulted in FDA approval and federal and private insurance coverage for PET in cancer, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Epilepsy and Cardiovascular disease.
Phelps founded a combined basic science and clinical Department of Molecular & Medical Pharmacology at UCLA. This is the only department in the world in which Nuclear Medicine & PET/CT are in a pharmacology department to provide the integration of in vivo Molecular imaging diagnostics, in vitro molecular diagnostic (blood) and therapeutics (pharmacology), based on the biology of disease. He founded the Institute for Molecular Medicine (IMED) and Crump Institute for Molecular Imaging at UCLA.
Phelps has published 740 peer-reviewed scientific articles and four textbooks. He has been principal investigator of $248 million in grants, as of 2018, and has received awards such as the George von Hevesy Prize, von Hevesy Foundation (von Hevesy won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry); Chaired the 1983 Nobel Symposium in Stockholm; Ernest O. Lawrence Memorial Award, Dept. of Energy; The Richard and Hinda Rosenthal Foundation Award, American College of Physicians; Enrico Fermi Presidential Award presented by President Clinton; Kettering Prize, General Motors Cancer Research Foundation; Keynote Address, 2007 Nobel Symposium, Stockholm; Massry Award, Massry Foundation; Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Award, German Society of Nuclear Medicine; Gold Medal Award, World Molecular Imaging Society; Gold Medal Award, American Roentgen Ray Society; de Hevesy Prize, the Soc. of Nuclear Medicine & Molecular Imaging; George V. Taplin Award, Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging.
Phelps is member of the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Medicine. He is the Board Chair, Norton Simon Foundation; and Board Member, Norton Simon Art Foundation and the Norton Simon Museum.
Phelps was also one of the three founders and member of the Board of Directors of CTI Molecular Imaging, that after Siemens acquired 45% of CTI in a joint venture, the remaining 55% was acquired by Siemens in 2005 for $1.1 billion. Along with UCLA and Caltech faculty, and public figures, Phelps founded Momentum, Biosciences (MoM), the first biotech incubator in the LA area. MoM provides facilities, services and funding for start-up and early stage companies from faculty at UCLA and Caltech. He is also one of the founders and board member of one of MoM’s companies – Sofie, Biosciences.
Phelps holds no ownership in any of the faculty founded companies, but rather helps faculty fulfill their hopes & dreams of delivering their inventions & discovery to improving healthcare through commercialization to the public benefit.

The Torture of Mumia Abu-Jamal Continues off Death Row --Supporters Demand Transfer (tags)
After being transferred from death row in December, Mumia was put in ‘the hole’ at SCI Mahanoy’s ‘Restrictive Housing Unit,’ where the conditions are actually more restrictive than when he was on death row. Supporters, including the National Lawyers Guild (for whom Mumia serves as Vice President) who has set up an online petition, are calling for his immediate transfer to general population, so that among other things, he will be able to touch his family for this first time in about 30 years.
FREE MUMIA! (tags)
The Echo Park Community Coalition (EPCC) scores the US Supreme Court for its ruling, however, it was not a legal decision; it was a political decision reaffirming the commitment of every arm of the state to permanently silence a prominent Black leader who has dedicated his life to challenging racism and oppression. The Third Circuit Court of Appeals upheld Mumia’s conviction in 2008, but ruled that Mumia deserved a new sentencing hearing because the jury had been given flawed instructions. The Supreme Court’s Jan. 19 ruling reverses that decision, sending the case back to the Third Circuit. The lower court can either let the death sentence stand or order a new trial to hear other claims brought by Mumia.

Mumia’s Life Is On the Line: Mobilize Labor/Black Power to Free Him Now! (tags)
The threat to Mumia Abu-Jamal's life is increasingly ominous. His lead attorney, Robert Bryan, warns: "There is an escalated effort by the authorities to see him die at the hands of the executioner. This is the most dangerous time for Mumia since his 1981 arrest." The U.S. Supreme Court has turned down Jamal's two appeals. If it were to rule in favor of the prosecution's appeal, this would open the way for Pennsylvania governor Ed Rendell to issue a third warrant of execution, which he has vowed to do. Contrary to the misplaced expectations of many, the Obama administration is not about to save Mumia. Around the world, hundreds of thousands have marched for this courageous champion of oppressed. Trade unions representing millions of members have rallied to the defense of Mumia. It is urgent to expand this support into powerful labor/black action, appealing to the integrated union movement to join with the black, Latino and immigrant poor to demand that he be liberated.

The Framing of Mumia Abu-Jamal: an interview with author J. Patrick O’Connor (tags)
In his new book, O’Connor argues that Abu-Jamal was clearly framed by police, and that the actual shooter was a man named Kenneth Freeman. O’Connor criticizes the local media, who, he says “bought into the prosecution’s story line early on and has never been able to see this case for what it is: a framing of an innocent and peace loving man.”
Ruling Against Mumia Shows: No Justice in the Capitalist Courts (tags)
On March 27, the U.S. appeals court in Philadelphia reaffirmed the frame-up conviction of Mumia Abu-Jamal, the former Black Panther Party spokesman and world-renowned radical journalist who has been locked up on Pennsylvania’s death row for more than a quarter century. After previously rejecting Mumia’s request to present evidence of his innocence, as well as a host of issues showing that he was railroaded by a racist court, the Court turned down Mumia’s request for a new trial. It upheld the 2001 ruling by a federal district judge that ordered a new hearing on the sentence, but limited the “choice” to the living hell of life imprisonment without parole ... or execution. Mumia is innocent. He was declared guilty and sentenced to die because of his revolutionary politics and because for years he had been a thorn in the side of the racist rulers of the misnamed “city of brotherly love.” Around the world, millions have come out in defense of Jamal. This latest ruling, like all those that preceded it, shows that the exploited and oppressed must have no faith in the racist injustice system. We call on the workers movement to mobilize its power to free Mumia now!

12/6 Dem-Repubs vote 368 to 31 against Mumia Abu-Jamal (tags)
On December 6, 2006, the Democrats and Republicans in the House of Representatives put it on the record that they are one party in supporting the murder of Mumia Abu-Jamal by voting 368 to 31 to condemn the decision of St. Denis, France to name a street after Mumia Abu-Jamal. This is clearly a political frame-up of national and international stature as the murderer, Arnold Beverly, has confessed to killing Officer Faulkner, a whistleblower of police corruption on the Philadelphia police force 25 years ago, December 9, 1981.

Recovering America's Wildlife Act
One-third of all U.S. wildlife species currently face an elevated risk of extinction. Unless we take action, we risk losing our nation's treasured wildlife heritage - from backyard birds to bighorn sheep.
Habitat loss, climate change, invasive species, and emerging diseases are taking a toll on our nation’s birds, mammals, fish, amphibians, reptiles, butterflies, and bees. The Recovering America’s Wildlife Act is a bold, bipartisan solution that will help at-risk species with cost-effective, collaborative conservation.
Tell Congress to take action for America's wildlife. ACT NOW
America's Wildlife Crisis
Roughly one-third of America’s wildlife species face an extinction risk. All categories of wildlife are declining—in many cases dramatically. More than 1,600 U.S. species are already listed under the federal Endangered Species Act, more than 150 U.S. species have already gone extinct, and nearly 500 additional species have not been seen in decades and may be extinct.
Birds — One-third of bird species in North America are in need of urgent conservation action.
Fish — More than 40 percent of freshwater fish species are at risk in North America.
Amphibians — Approximately 42 percent of amphibians like frogs, toads, and salamanders are threatened or declining in the United States.
Reptiles — In the United States, 33 percent of turtles are threatened and 5 percent of other reptiles are threatened.
Butterflies — Of the roughly 800 butterfly species in the United States, 17 percent are known to be at risk of extinction—but that’s likely just the tip of the iceberg, since there is little information on many native butterfly species.
Bumblebees — More than one-quarter of North American bumblebee species are facing some degree of extinction risk.
Bats — An estimated 18 percent of bat species are at risk of extinction, with an additional 13 percent potentially at risk. This places bats among the most threatened groups of North American vertebrates.
Freshwater Mussels — Overall, 70 percent of freshwater mussels in North America are already extinct or imperiled.
Widespread loss of species will lessen our quality of life and harm local and regional economies. For example, birds, bats, and butterflies create hundreds of billions of dollars in benefits to farmers by eating pests and fertilizing plants, but all are experiencing steep declines. Outdoor recreation adds nearly $900 billion to the economy each year and is often dependent on healthy wildlife populations and habitats.
Recovering America’s Wildlife Act
A Bold Vision for Funding Wildlife Conservation
The Recovering America’s Wildlife Act will allow the states, territories, and tribes to invest up to $1.4 billion annually in proactive, on-the-ground, collaborative efforts to help species at risk by restoring habitat, controlling invasive species, reconnecting migration routes, addressing emerging diseases, and more.
Specifically, the bill will:
Provide state and territorial wildlife agencies with up to $1.4B annually so they can implement their federally-approved Wildlife Action Plans.
Invest up to $98M annually in the wildlife conservation efforts led by Tribal Nations.
Support state, tribal, private, and national efforts to recover wildlife already identified as threatened or endangered.
Tell Congress that wildlife can't wait any longer. SPEAK UP NOW.
Implementing Wildlife Action Plans
The Recovering America’s Wildlife Act would give the states and territories up to $1.4 Billion a year to implement their Wildlife Action Plans – their science-based blueprints for protecting at-risk wildlife. Collectively these plans identify more than 12,000 species of plants and animals in need of assistance.
The current source of federal funding for implementing these plans — the State Wildlife Grants Program — only provides around $65 million a year, split between all the states and territories. This is less than five percent of what would be needed to implement these federally-mandated plans in a meaningful way.
Investing in Tribal-led Conservation
The Recovering America’s Wildlife Act would invest up to $98M annually in conservation work led by the 574 federally-recognized Tribes — their first-ever dedicated source of federal wildlife funding. Despite the fiscal constraints, many Tribal Nations have accomplished wildlife and land management programs that restore habitats and recover at-risk species such as bison, black-footed ferrets, and bighorn sheep.
This investment in Tribal conservation is long overdue – and an enormous opportunity. Tribal Nations own or influence the management of an estimated 140 million acres and these lands provide habitat for more than 525 threatened and endangered species.

The Green Room 42 Presents Reeve Carney in “Singing The Divas” Celebrating Broadway’s Legendary Stars
Reeve Carney – Photo by Matthew Tammaro
THE GREEN ROOM 42 – the intimate concert venue dubbed Broadway’s “off-night hotspot” by The New York Times – will present the return of Reeve Carney on Sunday, March 12 at 9:30 PM. For this special performance, the Grammy-winning singer/songwriter, actor and star of Broadway’s Hadestown will take a break from his usual set of original music to perform a cabaret evening of musical theater classics traditionally performed by legendary Broadway divas. A livestream option is available. Reeve recently co-starred in Ridley Scott’s hit film House of Gucci, opposite Al Pacino, Lady Gaga, and Adam Driver.
Reeve Carney originated the role of Peter Parker/Spider-Man in the record-breaking Broadway musical, Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark. A lifelong musician, Reeve jumped at the opportunity to perform a score by U2’s Bono and The Edge–not to mention re-team with director Julie Taymor, who he’d worked with in her film, The Tempest. In 2013, however, Reeve finally hung up his Spidey suit and headed to Dublin for Showtime’s buzzed-about John Logan/Sam Mendes series, “Penny Dreadful,” in which he played reckless hedonist Dorian Gray. Reeve’s latest album, Youth is Wasted, is the recipient of five Independent Music Awards. In an upcoming Jeff Buckley biopic, Reeve will play the late singer, marrying his love of music and acting. Reeve becoming a performer was all but a foregone conclusion: almost everybody in his family works in the arts. His great-uncle was actor Art Carney. His jewelry designer mother has a degree from Cincinnati College – Conservatory of Music, his father wrote jingles.
Hadestown – Anaïs Mitchell’s musical, currently on Broadway at the Walter Kerr Theatre – won the 2020 Grammy Award for “Best Musical Theater Album,” which included an award for Reeve as well. The show is also the winner of 8 Tony Awards, including “Best Musical.” Reeve was nominated for the Outer Critics Circle Award for “Outstanding Actor in a Musical” and two Broadway.com Audience Choice Awards, including “Favorite Leading Actor in a Musical.” Reeve’s performance in Hadestown has garnered stellar reviews. Rolling Stone hailed him as “angel-voiced,”The Hollywood Reporter called him a “dreamy delicacy,” Time Out New York praised his “otherworldly high-tenor,” and WFUV Radio raved about his “gorgeous, gentle voice.”
Reeve Carney will perform at The Green Room 42 (570 Tenth Avenue at 42nd Street, on the 4th Floor of Yotel) on Sunday, March 12 at 9:30 PM.The cover charge ranges from $20-$100.

Burundi: Shooting of human rights activist increases climate of fear
The brazen attack on leading human rights defender, Pierre-Claver Mbonimpa, is part of a disturbing escalation of politically motivated violence in Burundi and authorities must act to calm the situation and bring those responsible to justice, said Amnesty International.
Pierre-Claver Mbonimpa, president of the Association for the Protection of Human Rights and Detained People (APRODH), was shot and injured by gunmen in Bujumbura on 3 August. The attack took place a day after the assassination of General Adolphe Nshimirimana, chief security advisor to the Presidency.
“This brazen attack on Pierre-Claver Mbonimpa, a man who works tirelessly to protect the rights of others, is deeply shocking,” said Sarah Jackson, Amnesty International’s Deputy Regional Director for East Africa, the Horn and the Great Lakes.
The Burundian authorities must act swiftly to reverse a growing climate of fear and violence by publicly calling for calm and bringing the attackers to justice.
Sarah Jackson, Amnesty International’s Deputy Regional Director for East Africa, the Horn and the Great Lakes.
Many human rights defenders and journalists have been forced to flee Burundi since the beginning of the year following the government’s crackdown on critics after President Pierre Nkurunziza’s decision to stand for a third-term in office.
On 2August, Esdras Ndikumana, a Burundian journalist reporting for Radio France Internationale (RFI) from the scene of General Nshimirimana’s murder, was arrested by government security forces. He was released from detention after a few hours after having been badly beaten and sustaining injuries including a broken finger.
“Burundian authorities must ensure effective protection for all, including measures to allow human rights defenders and journalists to work in a safe environment. Politically motivated attacks, including the assassination of General Nshimirimana, must be independently and impartially investigated and those responsible prosecuted,” said Sarah Jackson.
“Regional and international efforts to end the crisis in Burundi should resume without delay to prevent further human rights violations.”
Pierre-Claver Mbonimpa was a prisoner of conscience from May to September 2014 after being charged with threatening state security and using false documents. Though released on medical grounds, the charges against him are yet to be dropped.
During General Adolphe Nshimirimana’s nine year tenure as Director of Burundi’s National Intelligence Service (SNR), Amnesty International documented extrajudicial killings, torture, intimidation and harassment of political opponents. Amnesty International is calling on the Burundian authorities to investigate and prosecute those responsible for these violations and provide reparations to victims.
Amnesty International’s July 2015 reportBraving Bullets: Excessive force in policing demonstrations in Burundi,showed how Burundian police used excessive lethal force to silence those opposed to President Pierre Nkurunziza’s bid for a third-term. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2015/07/burundi-excessive-lethal-force-used-to-crush-demonstrations/
In April 2015, Amnesty International launched the Komera, Turikumwe (Courage, We are Together) campaign to stand in solidarity with Burundian human rights defenders facing intimidation and harassment in the lead-up to the country’s presidential election, which took place in July. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2015/04/burundi-stop-harassment-of-human-rights-defenders-ahead-of-election/

The Amtrak station in Woodbridge consists of a platform and shelter adjacent to the Colonial Revival depot, which opened in 1992 as part of the inauguration of the Virginia Railway Express (VRE) Fredericksburg commuter rail line. A two-story central clock tower rises over the blue-green metal hipped roof, keeping time for passengers entering the enclosed portico that extends toward the parking lot. Front- and back-facing double-bays of tall, arched Georgian-style mullioned windows provide ample natural light for those using the VRE ticket machines or visiting the coffee stand and newspaper racks. On the rear, a sheltering porch and roofed runway give open air access to the platforms, which have a long gabled canopy and seating.
The multi-level parking garage adjacent to the station provides more than 7oo spaces in addition to the ground level lot, which hosts a farmers market on weekends. In 2010, VRE added a platform on the west side of the tracks and an overhead pedestrian bridge to connect the tracks to the parking garage on the east side. This second platform was built to provide additional commuter rail capacity.
Europeans arrived on the western shores of the Potomac and its tributaries around 1608, when Captain John Smith explored the area and found a well-established Dogue village at the mouth of the Occoquan (“End of the Water”) River. By 1650, Europeans began patenting the lands in the region, and the town of Occoquan, on that river, was well established by 1760, having a tobacco warehouse and grist mill. The mill operated for 175 years until it burned. The town of Occoquan was officially laid out in streets in 1804 by Nathaniel Ellicot, James Campbell, and Luke Wheeler, who are considered to be the town’s founders. During the American Civil War, Occoquan’s post office passed packages and letters between north and south.
Woodbridge lies a few miles further downriver toward Belmont Bay and it can be surmised this Census Designated Place, which is also a post office and one of the Prince William County magisterial districts, originated at the intersection of State Route 123, a major regional road, and U.S. Route 1 in the post-war years. Primarily rural, Woodbridge was also the nearest major intersection to a U.S. military installation that opened in the 1950s on the Marumsco headland. The area remained lightly populated until, in the early 1950s, Cecil D. Hylton began developing in Prince William county, building homes, townhouses, apartment buildings and shopping centers. In the early 1960s, Woodbridge became a residential area of choice for nearby Quantico as well as a far exurb of Washington, D.C. and the more populous Fairfax County to the north.
In the late 1940s and up until 1951, the Occoquan commuter rail station served the area. However, that was closed and torn down, and the community had no rail service at all until VRE arrived in 1992. Today, Woodbridge and its surrounds are burgeoning communities and hundreds commute northward every weekday via rail, instead of joining the lengthy auto commute to and from city of Washington and its closer suburbs.
Northeast Regional service within Virginia is funded in part through grants made available by the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Note Editore
A New Ecology: Systems Perspective, Second Edition, gives an overview of the commonalities of all ecosystems from a variety of properties, including physical openness, ontic openness, directionality, connectivity, a complex dynamic for growth and development, and a complex dynamic response to disturbances. Each chapter details basic and characteristic properties that help the reader understand how they can be applied to explain a wide spectrum of current ecological research and environmental management applications.
Contains revised, updated or redeveloped chapters that include the most current research and technology
Reviews universal traits of ecosystems from multiple perspectives, giving the reader a complete overview of the systems perspective of ecology
Offers broad examples of ecology as a systems science, from the history of science, to philosophy and the arts
Brings together the systems perspective in a framework of four columns for greater understanding, including thermodynamics, network theory, hierarchy theory and biochemistry
Contains new chapter on the application of the theory to environmental management

Arab Migrant Communities in the GCC
Zahra Babar
Part of the Georgetown University, Center for International and Regional Studies, School of Foreign Service in Qatar series
An original, research-based, volume on specifically Arab migration to and within the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries.
Arab Migrant Communities in the GCC Paperback £25.00
July 2017 9781849045889 296pp
Long a recipient of migrants from its surrounding areas, the Arabian Peninsula today comprises a mosaic of communities of diverse ethnic, cultural, linguistic and religious origins. For decades, while the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states have housed and employed groups of migrants coming and going from Asia, Africa and the West, they have also served as home to the older, more settled communities that have come from neighbouring Arab states.
Arab Migrant Communities in the GCC is a unique, original work of scholarship based on in-depth fieldwork shedding light on a topic both highly relevant and woefully understudied. It focuses on the earlier community of Arab immigrants within the GCC, who are among the politically most significant and sensitive of migrant groups in the region. Through its multi-disciplinary lenses of social history, cultural studies, economics, and political science, the book presents original data and provides analyses of the settlement and continued evolution of migrant Arab communities across the GCC, their work in and assimilation within host societies and labour markets, and their political, economic, social and cultural significance both to the GCC region and to their countries of origin.

‘This book is a reminder that Arab labour movements were at the origin of migration to the Gulf. It brings out their current specific characteristics, placing them in the broader contexts of foreign labour in the GCC and of international labour migration more generally. This book was long overdue. It will be a necessary reference for all researchers, instructors and students of international migration.’ — Ibrahim Awad, Professor, Director of the Center of Migration and Refugee Studies (CMRS), The American University in Cairo (AUC)
‘This is a fascinating and overdue book. It offers compelling arguments for expanding the research agenda to include the dynamics and ramifications of inter-regional migration. Zahra Babar has successfully brought together leading contributors whose extensive research and meticulous exposition highlight the continuing role of Arab migrant communities in shaping the Gulf’s socio-economic and political developments.’ — Abdulhadi Khalaf, Professor Emeritus, Lund University, and co-editor of Transit States: Labour, Migration and Citizenship in the Gulf
‘In the expanding field of labor migration studies in the Gulf states, Arab migrants are a little-known population. Relying on figures as well as on ethnographic data, this book provides a rich and diversified analysis, showing common trends as well as the uniqueness of situations from one country to another. It is a timely and particularly useful addition to existing scholarship, a must-read for anybody interested in Gulf migration issues.’ — Laurence Louër, Sciences Po, Center for International Studies (CERI), CNRS, Paris, France
‘Arab Migrant Communities in the GCC is an excellent and ethnographically rich exploration of the dynamics that shape the migration of “other Arabs” to the oil-rich states of the GCC. Long overdue, this volume draws our attention to the complex sets of socio-political and cultural forces that give shape to migrant choices and fears.’ — Jane Bristol-Rhys, Associate Professor of Anthropology at Zayed University Abu Dhabi, and author of Future Perfect / Present Tense: Migrant Workers, Expats, and Sponsors in Abu Dhabi

Washington State Construction Company Settles Allegations of False Claims In Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program
U.S. Attorney's Office, Western District of Washington
Company Pays more than $140,000 to Settle Allegations
Tri-State Construction, a privately-owned Washington State construction company, today agreed to pay more than $140,000 to settle allegations it submitted false records to the Washington State Department of Transportation related to the federally-funded I-5 HOV lane project between Port of Tacoma Road and the Pierce/King County line, announced U.S. Attorney Annette L. Hayes. The settlement involves Tri-State’s claims from 2010 to 2014 that it was renting a specialized machine from a certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE). In fact, the machine was not owned by DBE – OMA Construction. The machine was actually owned by Tri-State, which attempted to use a lease/purchase agreement to make it appear, consistent with DBE set-aside requirements for federally-funded highway projects, that OMA owned the machine.
“Disadvantaged Business Enterprise fraud harms the integrity of the DBE program and law-abiding contractors by defeating efforts to ensure a level playing field in which all firms can compete fairly for contracts,” said William Swallow, Regional Special Agent-in-Charge of the U.S. Department of Transportation Office of Inspector General. “Our agents will continue to work with the Secretary of Transportation and other Federal, State, and local law enforcement and prosecutorial colleagues to expose and shut down DBE fraud schemes that adversely affect public trust and DOT-assisted highway programs.”
In all Tri-State will pay $142,440 to the U.S. Department of Transportation to settle the allegations. The company does not admit any misconduct. The machine at issue is a “chitosan” – used to process and clean wastewater generated by construction projects. The adequacy of Tri-State’s work on the I-5 project is not disputed.
The case was investigated by the U.S. Department of Transportation Office of Inspector General and the FBI. The case was handled by Assistant United States Attorneys Kayla Stahman and Priscilla Chan.

McLean-based communications satellite services provider Intelsat Corp. announced Monday it has hired Peter B. Davidson as vice president of global government affairs and policy.
Davidson was most recently the deputy dean for strategic initiatives and an assistant professor at George Mason University’s Antonin Scalia Law School. In his new role, he will lead development of Intelsat’s government relations strategy and build relationships with the U.S. Congress and administration. He will also work with international administrations and regulatory bodies and report to Michelle Bryan, Intelsat executive vice president, general counsel and chief administrative officer.
With more than 35 years of experience, Davidson also served as general counsel at the U.S. Department of Commerce, where he was the third most senior official and oversaw 400 attorneys across the 13 department bureaus. He also spent 14 years as the senior vice president of federal and international government relations at Verizon Communications Inc.
“Peter is a dynamic leader with a broad range of experience, and we look forward to working alongside him to further advance our near and long-term government affairs initiatives,” Bryan said in a statement.
Davidson earned his bachelor’s degree in political science (with a concentration in political economy) from Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota, and earned his juris doctorate from the University of Virginia School of Law.
In May, Intelsat announced it had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection to spend money on a program that would allow it to build 5G infrastructure under the Federal Communications Commission order. The clearing project will cost Intelstat $1 billion to meet FCC deadlines and will make the company eligible to receive $4.87 billion in accelerated relocation payments. The company’s day-to-day operations will continue as usual, according to Intelsat.

The UN Group of Friends on Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) Risk Mitigation: promoting the work of the EU CBRN Centers of Excellence Initiative worldwide
New York - Tuesday, October 4, 2016
The outcome of a recent Side-event of the UN General Assembly highlighted the strong consensus towards a common security culture based on regional and international cooperation and in the area of chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) risk mitigation.
The Side-event entitled “CBRN Risk Mitigation in the context of Combatting Terrorism” was organized within the framework of EU CBRN Centres of Excellence Initiative* (EU CBRN CoE), by the UN Group of Friends of CBRN Risk Mitigation and Security Governance* and the United Nations Interregional Crime and Justice Research Institute (UNICRI).
The meeting gathered more than 120 delegates from permanent representations to the UN, UNICRI, UNSC 1540 Committee, the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons; the Global Initiative to Combat Nuclear Terrorism; as well as international eminent experts from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (US), the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (UK), Yale University, IQBit, and SICPA from the private sector. The EU was represented by the European External Action Service and the European Commission supported by the EU Delegation in New York.
Omar Hilale, Permanent Representative of Morocco to the UN; David Dondua, Deputy Foreign Ministers of Georgia; Ariel Y. Abadilla, Deputy Foreign Minister of the Philippines jointly opened the event. They were followed by the opening remarks from the EU (Bruno Dupré-EEAS and Tristan Simonart- EC) and the Director of UNICRI, Cindy J. Smith. The EU representatives both underlined the progress achieved in the structure of the CoE and outlined the progressive opening of the network to cover additional security regional priorities, in line with the new EU Global Strategy and requests from partner countries.
All speakers underlined that the evolved threats posed by CBRN materials need to be addressed in a cooperative and innovative ways. Current and likely future developments of new technologies have potentially far-reaching implications, changing the dynamic of security, security governance and CBRN risk mitigation. A panel of international experts from public, academic and private sectors, discussed the emerging threats posed by new technologies such as artificial intelligence, nanodrones, biological and cyber security in the age of big data and autonomous technologies. These advances will also have considerable appeal for terrorist organisations or other non-state actors who wish to exploit CBRN materials, most particularly given the potential value of autonomous systems as delivery mechanisms. Developments in this field open up a new world of CBRN threats. In this respect, three new initiatives were announced during the meeting: the opening of the Centre on Artificial Intelligence in The Hague; the establishment of a Centre (SIRIO) in Geneva to engage industry and research institutions and promote knowledge and technology solutions to address emerging security risks; and the new cooperation agreement between UNICRI and FBI on biotech.
The Side-event showcased how the best practices developed by the EU CBRN Risk Mitigation Centres of Excellence Initiative, such as regional bottom up projects, CBRN needs assessments and national action plans, can serve as a model in other areas of security governance. The national action plans for CBRN risk mitigation, which have been developed by partner countries of the initiatives, are leading to improved CBRN risk preparedness and awareness, as well as to changes in national and regional approaches and strategies. Ambassador Juan Manuel Gonzales-Linares, Deputy Permanent Representative of Spain, UNSC 1540 Committee, outlined the increasing and beneficial collaboration between the EU initiative and the 1540 activities. He was followed by high representatives from the UN Counter-Terrorism Centre (CTITF), OPCW and GICNT, emphasising the benefits provided by the national action plans supported by the EU CoE and the 2016 regional table top Falcon exercise organised in the Gulf Cooperation Countries region with Morocco and Jordan.

USFS opens shelters along the southern Appalachian Trail
https://www.alleghenymountainradio.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/04-21-21-Shelters-Reopen-on-the-AT.mp3
It’s on the bucket list for a lot of people – hiking part or all of the Appalachian Trail. And in 2020, the AT felt the impacts of COVID lockdowns in the form of shelters and trailheads on the trail being closed. On April 21st, the US Forest Service announced that shelters along the trail in Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina and Virginia are now available for use. Hikers are encouraged to bring their own personal tent and face coverings.
The shelters are located on national forest land, managed by the Forest Service, and the US Dept of Agriculture. Forest service officials say there are hundreds of shelters averaging about eight miles apart along the trail, although the intervals may vary. And shelters may not be frequently maintained at all locations.
Dispersed camping in designated areas is another option available to overnight or multi-day hikers. These are camp sites in designated areas of the national forest. Hikers should be prepared to tent camp if social distancing in shelters is not possible. Forest Supervisor Joby Timm says in addition to the shelters and dispersed camping sites, hikers can also stay overnight in nearby communities.
The Appalachian Trail is a popular hiking trail stretching more than 2,100 miles from Georgia to Maine. About 344 miles of the trail are in Virginia.
“In the spring, our stretch of the Appalachian Trail typically sees a continuous stream of hikers all day long. It can get crowded,” Timm said. “The George Washington and Jefferson National Forests have many hiking trails. If you prefer more solitude, choose a trail that’s less busy. The entire forest is open for recreation and nature viewing.”
Hikers are encouraged to recreate responsibly, maintain a safe social distance and follow health guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and local health authorities.
Hikers can plan ahead by checking forest websites for site-specific details before their trip. The southern portion of the Appalachian Trail runs through four national forests in Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina and Virginia.

Paul Wellstone
Paul David Wellstone was an American Democrat politician, academic, and author who represented Minnesota in the United States Senate from 1991 until he was killed in a plane crash in Eveleth, Minnesota, on October 25, 2002.
Born July 21, 1944 in Washington D.C., Wellstone was a professor at Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota, and a community organizer in Rice County prior to entering public office.

As an Emmy Award-winning writer-producer and comedian, Hugh Fink has established himself as one of the leading voices of cutting-edge humor in late night television.
During his tenure as a writer for NBC’s Saturday Night Live alongside Will Ferrell, Maya Rudolph, Norm MacDonald, Tina Fey and Tracy Morgan, Fink not only earned a reputation for his fearless lampooning of pop culture, but also appeared as a commentator on the show’s Weekend Update. During his final season at SNL, Hugh Fink received the Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Program. Last year, he was brought back to SNL as a guest writer to share his expertise with the newer cast members and writers.
Fink was creator/executive producer of the irreverent Comedy Central series, The Showbiz Show with David Spade. He co-wrote the NBC Muppets Movie, Letters To Santa: A Muppets Christmas, where he got into an argument with the actor playing Kermit, who refused to do a joke in the script on the grounds that “Kermit wouldn’t say that.”
As a comedian, Hugh has made multiple appearances on Conan O’Brien, Late Show with David Letterman, as well as his own Comedy Central Half Hour Special. As an accomplished classical violinist, Hugh opened for Jon Stewart at Carnegie Hall, proving to his family that all those years of violin lessons finally paid off.
Since 2015, for a record six years in a row, Hugh has executive produced and written The Writers Guild Awards, hosted by Lisa Kudrow, Patton Oswalt, Chelsea Peretti and his SNL pal, Ana Gasteyer. As the Awards’ exec producer, Hugh has collaborated with Steve Carell, Sarah Silverman, Keegan Michael Key, Bill Burr, Wanda Sykes and Oliver Stone — who’s just not that funny.
Whether it's at Saturday Night Live, The Writers Guild Awards, or Montreal's Just For Laughs Comedy Festival, I've been working with Hugh Fink for 25 years, and that little prick is hilarious.
DAVID KOECHNER
aka Todd Packer,
NBC's The Office
From the characters he's voiced on American Dad to the packed comedy clubs I've witnessed him slay as a standup, Hugh Fink is hands down one of the funniest humans I know. It's not easy to make Hollywood's most seasoned (read: jaded) writers howl with laughter, yet Mr. Fink has produced the Writers Guild's annual awards ceremony for the last six years in a row. A true master of the form and bona fide living legend.

Canada's Tobias Jesso Jr. Sells His Rights To 40 Songs

Tobias Jesso Jr., the Canadian artist who won the first Grammy for Songwriter of the Year on Sunday, has sold the rights to dozens of his songs.
The 37-year-old Vancouver native released his own album Goon in 2015 and then focused on crafting songs for artists like Adele, Niall Horan and fellow Canadian Shawn Mendes.
Hipgnosis Song Management, founded by Quebec-born Merck Mercuriadis, acquired Jesso Jr.’s share of rights to 40 songs released between 2015 and 2020, including 13 of his own songs.
“Tobias is amongst the most important songwriters in contemporary music today as demonstrated by his winning the 2023 Grammy Award for Songwriter Of The Year, in its inaugural year,” said Mercuriadis said, in a release.
“I fell in love with his songs right from the get go with Goon eight years ago and he never fails to deliver.”
The value of the deal was not disclosed. (When a reporter in the Grammys press room asked Jesso Jr. about compensation for songwriters, he replied: “I mean, I can’t complain about compensation”).

On Sunday, Jesso Jr. also won a Grammy for Album of the Year thanks to his contribution to Harry’s House by Harry Styles (Jesso Jr. co-wrote “Boyfriends”). He had a second nomination in the category as a co-writer of “To Be Loved” on Adele’s 30.
Jesso Jr. was nominated for Songwriter of the Year at the JUNO Awards in 2016 but lost to The Weeknd.
The Hipgnosis deal includes songs recorded by Sia, Florence + The Machine, HAIM, Charlie Puth, John Legend, Meghan Trainor and P!nk. Also in the catalogue are “Lay Me Down” and “When We Were Young” by Adele, “Nice to Meet Ya” and “Slow Hands” by Niall Horan and “Roses” by Shawn Mendes.
Jesso Jr. is the second Canadian this year to sell to Hipgnosis after Justin Bieber, who struck a deal worth a reported $200 million. The company previously acquired the catalogues of Canada’s Leonard Cohen and producer Bob Rock and 50 percent of the rights to Neil Young’s songs.

Pompeo Condemns China's Attempts to Steal Coronavirus Research Data

The U.S. State Department released a statement Thursday denouncing attempts to infiltrate systems involved in U.S. COVID-19 research that the Federal Bureau of Investigation has attributed to China.
"The United States condemns attempts by cyber actors and non-traditional collectors affiliated with the People's Republic of China (PRC) to steal U.S. intellectual property and data related to COVID-19 research," Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a statement.
Pompeo's remarks follow an announcement by the FBI on Wednesday that the bureau is investigating "the targeting and compromise" of organizations conducting research to develop vaccines and other treatments for COVID-19. The efforts were attributed to China-affiliated actors.

A spokesperson for the Chinese Embassy did not return a request for comment.
According to the FBI, digital intruders are seeking to pilfer valuable intellectual property related to this research, jeopardizing "the delivery of secure, effective, and efficient treatment options."
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), which jointly issued the notice with the FBI, has previously said that overall levels of cybercrime are not increasing, but emphasized that hackers are increasingly using coronavirus-themed overtures to gain unauthorized access.
This is not the first time China has been tied to efforts to steal valuable medical information. The cybersecurity firm FireEye has documented a "concerted focus" by Chinese state-supported actors to access cancer-related research.
In an August 2019 report, FireEye outlined what it says were several attempts by Chinese hackers to steal such information, noting that the country may be motivated by the fact that cancer is its leading cause of death.
FireEye said that a U.S.-based health center focused on cancer research was targeted with malware known as EVILNUGGET earlier that spring, the latest in what the report described as a years-long string of efforts to access valuable medical information.
"The PRC's behavior in cyberspace is an extension of its counterproductive actions throughout the COVID-19 pandemic," Pompeo's statement on Thursday continued. "While the United States and our allies and partners are coordinating a collective, transparent response to save lives, the PRC continues to silence scientists, journalists, and citizens, and to spread disinformation, which has exacerbated the dangers of this health crisis."
The Trump administration has also worked with the United Kingdom to identify a similar threat against COVID-19-response organizations abroad. The two countries are investigating "a number of incidents" in which actors have targeted pharmaceutical companies, research organizations and educational institutions.
The FBI said that technical details relating to the COVID-19 hacks will be made available "in the coming days." The bureau is requesting that organizations involved in pandemic research or preparedness work to patch digital vulnerabilities and regularly monitor systems for unauthorized access.
These organizations should also be adopting "dedicated cybersecurity and insider threat practices," the FBI said.

Masterclass: Madeleine Albright and Condoleezza Rice Teach Diplomacy
August 21, 2022 In Masterclass 5 Mins Read By Lanre Dahunsi
Secretary Madeleine Albright and Secretary Condoleezza Rice share insights, born from their years of experience, about navigating disagreements, making difficult decisions, and negotiating for mutual gain.
Professional diplomats represent the concerns and goals of their country in discussions, negotiations, and conflicts abroad. But diplomacy isn’t reserved for the foreign service: All of us have to negotiate relationships in our personal and professional lives. And all of us can learn from the skills that professional diplomats spend their lifetimes cultivating.
In this class, Secretary Madeleine Albright and Secretary Condoleezza Rice share insights, born from their years of experience, about navigating disagreements, making difficult decisions, and negotiating for mutual gain.
Secretary Albright
BORN IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA, Secretary Albright immigrated to the United States as an eleven-year-old refugee in 1948 after Communists took over her home country in a coup. Her family moved to Denver, Colorado, where her diplomat father (who had worked in the Czechoslovak Foreign Service) taught international studies at the University of Denver.
Secretary Albright became a U.S. citizen in 1957 and, like her father before her, went on to pursue a career in diplomacy. In 1997, she became America’s sixty-fourth secretary of state, serving under President Bill Clinton. She was the first woman to hold the position, moving her into the highest rank of any woman in the history of American government up to that point.
Notable roles in government:
U.S. ambassador to the United Nations (1993–1997); secretary of state (1997–2001)
English, Czech, Russian, French, Polish, and Serbo-Croatian
Other roles:
Professor in the Practice of Diplomacy at Georgetown University’s Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service in Washington, D.C.; chair of the Albright Stonebridge Group and Albright Capital Management LLC, a global business strategy firm and a global investment firm, respectively; chair of the National Democratic Institute, an American nonprofit organization focused on aiding democratic institutions around the globe; president of the Truman Scholarship, which awards grants to American college students interested in pursuing graduate studies and careers in public service; member of the board of directors of the Council on Foreign Relations, an American think tank focused on foreign policy.
Also famous for:
Her pin collection, which she often used as a diplomatic signal.
Diplomacy isn’t chess; it’s billiards. That is, you take your shot hoping to land your ball in the pocket, but as often as not, you set off a difficult-to-predict chain reaction.
Secretary Rice
NATIVE OF ALABAMA, Secretary Rice grew up during the Jim Crow era: the period in which legal segregation and discrimination against African Americans was the norm throughout America’s southern states. After studying political science at the University of Denver (more on that below), she would go on to pursue careers in academia, national security, and diplomacy. In 2001,
Secretary Rice became the first woman to serve as national security adviser, a position she accepted under President George W. Bush. In 2005, she became the sixty-sixth secretary of state—the first African American woman to take on the job and the highest-ranking African American woman in the U.S. government up until that point.
Adviser to the Joint Chiefs of Staff (1986); director of Soviet and East European Affairs on the National Security Council (1989–1991); U.S. national security adviser (2001–2005); secretary of state (2005–2009)
Achievements and honors:
Author of two bestselling books; recipient of eleven honorary doctorate degrees; provost of Stanford University, where she was the youngest person, first woman, and first person of color to hold that position.
English, Russian, French, Latin, and Spanish
Current roles:
Director of the Hoover Institution, a public policy think tank associated with Stanford University; professor of political economy at Stanford’s Graduate School of Business; professor of political science at Stanford University; founding partner of Rice, Hadley, Gates & Manuel LLC consulting firm.
Her musical talents. She nearly pursued a career as a concert pianist, until she took an international relations course at the University of Denver with Professor Josef Korbel, Secretary Albright’s father, who became Secretary Rice’s mentor.
A diplomat promotes their country’s global interests and seeks to forward their country’s foreign policy.
United States diplomats typically work for the State Department at U.S. embassies and consulates around the world. Other countries also post their diplomats at their respective embassies and consulates.
Without diplomacy, nations face a higher probability of misunderstanding and violence. Diplomats are, in a sense, peacekeepers.
As decisions that require participation from multiple countries emerge, diplomats seek to negotiate solutions, avoiding conflict along the way.
Some diplomats, including U.S. ambassadors, are appointed. Others are career foreign service officers who apply and are interviewed for their future role, which bears a closer resemblance to hiring practices in the private sector.

Mineral Law Institute
The Pugh Institute for Justice
Professor Andrea Carroll
"Lawyers know if they hire an LSU student, that student is coming out of law school ready to practice and ready to handle the tough cases."
Third-year students participate in a three-day annual Trial Advocacy program, taught by some of the nation’s leading experts in courtroom practices.
Centers, Institutes and Special Programs
Five centers and institutes focus scholarly research and public attention on a variety of relevant issues. In addition, the Law and Medicine Program, the only law school-based program devoted to public health issues, features a cooperative endeavor with Pennington Biomedical Center—one of the world’s finest nutrition research centers—addressing obesity and other public health issues.
The Center of Civil Law Studies
The Center of Civil Law Studies (CCLS) was established in 1965 to promote and encourage the scientific study of the civil law system, its history, structure, principles, and actualities. Its purpose or mission is to facilitate a better understanding and further development of the private law of the State of Louisiana and other civil law jurisdictions, particularly those of continental Europe and Latin America, through theoretical and practical activities, such as publications, translations, sponsorship of faculty and student exchanges, visiting scholars, seminars and lectures. The Center of Civil Law Studies promotes legal education by sponsoring foreign students who wish to avail themselves of the opportunity of studying a mixed legal system and American students who wish to expose themselves to other legal systems. Such programs take advantage of Louisiana’s natural position as an education center for international and comparative legal studies.
For further information on the center and its services, please contact Professor Olivier Moréteau, Director, Center of Civil Law Studies, LSU Paul M. Hebert Law Center, Baton Rouge LA 70803-1000, or call 225-578-7831.
In August 2012, the LSU Law Center created an academic center for comprehensive instruction and research in energy law. The LSU John P. Laborde Energy Law Center, the first such center in Louisiana, prepares lawyers to address the full range of 21st-century issues in the complex energy sector and to assume leadership roles in industry, government, nonprofits, and the academy.
For more information, please contact Professor Keith Hall, Director of the LSU John P. Laborde Energy Law Center, at [email protected] or 225-578-8847.
The Louisiana Mineral Law Institute was created in 1953 as an annual continuing legal education program. The goal of the Institute is to promote an understanding of Louisiana mineral law and facilitate its development through educational activities. In addition to consideration of important developments in the law of oil and gas at the annual program, the Mineral Law Institute sponsors other continuing education programs at the Law Center and cooperates with energy-related research and educational programs at Louisiana State University. Projects of the Mineral Law Institute presently being implemented include a publication of a periodic Louisiana Mineral Law Newsletter, publication of the proceedings of recent Mineral Law Institute programs, and sponsorship of student scholarships for mineral law studies. The planning and activities of the Mineral Law Institute are supported by Mineral Law Institute Council comprised of leading members of the oil and gas legal community of Louisiana and of other producing states.
For further information, please contact Professor Keith Hall, director, at the LSU Paul M. Hebert Law Center, Baton Rouge LA 70803-1000, or call 225-578-8709 or by email to [email protected].
The George W. and Jean H. Pugh Institute for Justice provides support for research and educational activities that promote justice for individuals in the administration of the criminal and civil justice systems in Louisiana and elsewhere. The Institute achieves its mission in partnership with the Louisiana Law Review, sponsoring symposia that foster publication and electronic distribution of related research. The Pugh Institute was founded in 1998.

The Louisiana State Law Institute, directed by Professor William Crawford, engages in the continuous evaluation and elaboration of the state’s legal system. It includes many Law Center professors as members of its Council and as many of its key reporters and committee members. The Law Institute was chartered by the Louisiana legislature as an official law revision committee, law reform agency, and legal research agency for the State of Louisiana. The Institute is headquartered at the LSU Law Center and is representative of all branches of government and the entire legal profession.

The Judicial College, directed by Professor William Corbett, provides continuing education for the state’s judiciary. Topics including recent developments in juvenile law, tort law, civil law, criminal law, interdiction procedures, evidentiary/procedural issues in tort and first-degree murder cases, waiver of counsel, eyewitness perception and memory, and domestic and elder abuse were among the highlights of recent continuing legal education programs sponsored by the Judicial College for Louisiana’s judges. Over 900 members of the judiciary took part in sessions, which featured some 100 speakers. The College continued to issue its Criminal Law Newsletter and, in cooperation with the Louisiana District Judges’ Association, published the Louisiana Capital Crimes Bench Book.

Famed fashion designer Kate Spade dies of apparent suicide
Janelle Monae, Anika Noni Rose, Christina Milian and Kerry Washington among those known to wear Spade
Destiny Royston
On June 5, 2018, Katherine Noel Brosnahan, known as Kate Spade, was found dead in her New York City apartment by apparent suicide. She was 55.
Spade had recently returned from a hiatus after selling her brand, Kate Spade, in 2006. She launched her latest fashion brand, Frances Valentine in 2016 to begin a new fashion era. However, that was short-lived with breaking news that Spade’s housekeeper found her hanging inside her apartment around 10:30 a.m.
Among the African American celebrities known to rock Spade’s designs are Janelle Monae, Anika Noni Rose, Christina Milian and Kerry Washington.
Born Katherine Noel Brosnahan in Kansas City, Mo., she attended Arizona State University where she met Andy Spade. After graduating with a degree in journalism in 1985, Spade visited New York and was hired for a temp job in Mademoiselle magazine as editor for accessories.
After working there a while, Spade noticed handbags weren’t fashionable and feminine as she would prefer. In 1993, she and her husband launched Kate Spade New York. They later extended their collection and sold clothing, jewelry, shoes, eyewear and more. Over time, Spade went on to open a boutique in Manhattan, and her brand headquarters on West 25th Street.
Other companies began buying portions of Kate Spade and it became known as Kate Spade & Company. Neiman Marcus Group purchased 56 percent of the luxury design brand for $33.6 million and acquired the remaining 44 percent for $59 million in 2006.
Kate and Andy Spade devoted their time to their daughter, Frances Spade, which left them on hiatus until 2016. With their new brand, Frances Valentine, named after their daughter Frances, they began selling handbags and shoes.

Ballet Documentary ‘Call Me Dancer’ Sets World Premiere, Sales Agents – Global Bulletin
Entertainment Partners and Netflix each pledged £250,000 ($308,000) to form a PGGB talent development Fund.
As seen in Variety.
Leslie Shampaine and Pip Gilmour‘s feature documentary “Call Me Dancer” will have its world premiere at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, in competition for best documentary, on Feb. 9, followed by its New York premiere as the opening night film at the Dance on Camera Film Festival at Film at Lincoln Center on Feb. 10.
The film follows Manish Chauhan, a young and talented street dancer from Mumbai who struggles against his parents’ insistence that he follow a traditional path.When he accidentally walks into an inner-city dance school and encounters curmudgeonly 70-year-old Israeli ballet master Yehuda Maor, a hunger develops within him and he is determined to make it as a professional dancer, but the odds are stacked against him.
Filmed in India, Israel, the U.K. and the U.S., the dance documentary features original songs by Jay Sean, music by Bangladeshi-American hip-hop artist Anik Khan and a score by British-Indian composer Nainita Desai.
First Hand Films has boarded the project for international sales while East Village Entertainment is handling North America sales.
The film is produced by Shampaine Pictures in coproduction with ZDF and in association with Arte. Executive producers include Sean, John Patrick King, Jitin Hingorani, Ori Z. Soltes and Esther van Messel and the film is produced by Priya Ramasubban, Cynthia Kane and Shampaine.
A fictionalized version of the Chauhan, fellow dancer Amiruddin Shah and Maor story was the subject of Sooni Taraporevala’s 2020 Netflix original film “Yeh Ballet,” with Julian Sands playing the character based on Maor.
Meanwhile, Jio Studios’ and Wide Angle Creations’ Tamil-language film “Appatha,” directed by Priyadarshan and starring Urvashi, in her 700th film, has been selected as the opening film at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Film Festival organised by the Government of India, Ministry of Information & Broadcasting through the National Film Development Corporation in association with the SCO Council of Heads of States. The festival runs Jan. 27-31.
A second season for Disney+ original comedy series “Extraordinary” has been greenlit, Johanna Devereaux, VP scripted content and the show’s executive producer for the streamer, revealed ahead of its London premiere on Tuesday. Filming will commence later this month.
Created by Emma Moran and directed by Toby McDonald (“Ragdoll”), Jennifer Sheridan (“Rules of the Game”) and Nadira Amrani (“On the Edge”), the series follows a young, self-aware woman who lives in a world where everyone has a superpower except her.
Moran and series cast Máiréad Tyers, Sofia Oxenham, Bilal Hasna, Luke Rollason, Siobhán McSweeney and Patricia Allison attended the premiere. Additional series cast members include Ardal O’Hanlon, Robbie Gee and Ned Porteous.
“Extraordinary” is executive produced by Sally Woodward Gentle, Lee Morris and Charles Dawson for Sid Gentle Films, the production company behind “Killing Eve.” The series is produced by Charlie Palmer.
Music competition show “Starstruck” is set to be adapted for Danish TV. Network DR1 will broadcast the show, which is set to be produced by Banijay Nordic label Mastiff TV Denmark.
The show, which sees ordinary people transformed into super stars, was created by Banijay U.K.’s Remarkable Entertainment, which sold it to British broadcaster ITV and ITVX.
The series has already been sold to Chile and Bulgaria.
6ft From the Spotlight, a film and TV industry charity focused on improving mental health and well-being, walked away with the inaugural Earl of Wessex Award at the Production Guild of Great Britain‘s (PGGB) talent showcase in London, U.K. on Tuesday evening,
His Royal Highness The Earl of Wessex (also known as King Charles III’s younger brother Prince Edward) presented the award in person during the ceremony at The Savoy hotel. 6ft From the Spotlight was founded by crew and mental health specialists in 2017 in order to tackle mental health issues and difficult working conditions, especially during the pandemic. They also popularized the role of an on-set wellbeing facilitator in the industry as well as providing training for the role, which has been used in productions including “Gangs of London” Season 2.
At the event, Entertainment Partners and Netflix each pledged £250,000 ($308,000) to form a PGGB talent development Fund. The fund will invest in specialist training for below-the-line professionals working in roles represented by PGGB members, including production accountants, production managers, line producers and assistant directors.

Student Nanomedicine Researchers Named National Finalists in Siemens Math, Science & Technology Competition
Months of dedication and hard work in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) paid off tonight for three students named National Finalists in the Siemens Competition in Math, Science & Technology, the nation's premier research competition for high school students.
Frederick Lang of Houston, Texas earned the top honors and a $3,000 individual scholarship for research on cancer therapeutics. Research on vaccine development earned Alyssa Chen and Shriya Das, both of Dallas, Texas the $6,000 team scholarship.
The students presented their research this weekend to a panel of judges from The University of Texas at Austin, host of the Region Two Finals. They are now invited to present their work on a national stage at the National Finals in Washington, D.C., December 7-10, 2013, where $500,000 in scholarships will be awarded, including two top prizes of $100,000. The Siemens Competition, a signature program of the Siemens Foundation, is administered by the College Board.
"These incredible students have invested significant time and energy to advance research and exploration in critical fields," said David Etzwiler, CEO of the Siemens Foundation. "I commend the Region Two winners for their outstanding achievements and wish them luck in the next phase of the competition."
The Winning Individual
Frederick Lang, a senior at St. John's School in Houston, Texas, won the individual category and a $3,000 scholarship for his project, entitled Human Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells as Biofactories for Exosomes Containing Anti-Glioblastoma miRNA.
For his project, Frederick identified a potential new treatment for the most malignant form of adult brain cancer. Using an innovative approach to RNA-based therapy, he reprogrammed the body's own cells to reduce their toxicity in the brain. His research demonstrates the ability to harness the natural power of stem cells to create therapeutics that could eventually be used to go after cancerous tumors.
"It's top-tier science. Frederick discovered what could be a very promising new approach to treating cancer by making human cells transgenic," said competition judges Dr. Janice Fischer, professor, and Dr. Blerta Xhemalce, assistant professor, both in Molecular Biosciences, The University of Texas at Austin. "He commands a breadth of knowledge in technique and tools that is impressive for a high school student. The sophistication of the approach and the science of his research could serve as a cornerstone publication in the field."
Inspired by his parents' work as physicians in a cancer center, Frederick similarly is keen to pursue a profession in biomedical research, or as an engineer allowing him to apply both math and science. He is a National Merit Scholar Semifinalist, and a member of the Junior States of America club. Additionally, he is captain of his school's varsity soccer team and a two-year participant and "lead teacher" in the school's annual community service trip to Costa Rica.
His mentor is Dr. Anwar Hossain, senior research scientist, MD Anderson Cancer Center, Department of Neurosurgery.
The Winning Team
Alyssa Chen, a junior at Highland Park High School in Dallas, Texas, and Shriya Das, a junior at The Hockaday School in Dallas, Texas, won the team category and will share a $6,000 scholarship for their project entitled, Encapsulation of c-di-GMP Adjuvant into pH-tunable Micelle-based Nanoparticle Heightens Immune Response.
In their research on vaccine development, Alyssa and Shriya merged the disciplines of nanotechnology and immunology to develop adjuvants, molecules that can boost immune responses. By encapsulating the adjuvant, the team was able to increase its potency and facilitate its delivery directly into the immune cell. The team's discovery could have the potential to develop more vaccines for cancer and difficult-to-cure infectious diseases.

"Their innovative approach bridges two disparate disciplines that may one day yield a new class of powerful vaccines for treating devastating human diseases," said competition judge Dr. Ilya Finkelstein, assistant professor, Molecular Biosciences, The University of Texas at Austin. "The students' command of their research project and the broader scientific aims is on par with that of advanced graduate students. This work may one day stand on its own as an important contribution to usher in a new era of vaccine development."
Alyssa is the secretary and three-time all-region member of the Highlander String Orchestra and a Decathlete in the Academic Decathalon. Her deep-seated interest in biology sparked her desire to become a gastroenterologist.
Shriya is heavily involved in the arts with key roles in her honors choir, the school's annual musical, and Indian classical music and dance performances. She also participates in her high school's robotics club and tutors in reading and math. Shriya aspires to a career in medicine or technology.
The team's mentor is Dr. Jinming Gao, professor, Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas.

Diplomats Hold Tokyo Forum on Disarmament
Written by Shigenari Kato, secretary general, UPF Peace Diplomats Forum
Tokyo, Japan—The 26th Peace Diplomats Forum was held by UPF-Japan on the theme “Japan’s Role in Disarmament and Non-Proliferation.”
The date of the forum, April 6, was significant, as it came between the Nuclear Security Summit held in Washington, D.C., on April 1 and the G7 Foreign Ministers’ Meeting that would be held in Hiroshima on April 10.
The forum, held at the Conference Hall of the United Nations University in Tokyo, attracted more than 80 participants, including 39 senior diplomats from 35 embassies in Japan. In addition, many distinguished Japanese leaders, such as former parliamentarians, former ambassadors, professors, and journalists representing major media organizations, were in attendance.
After the forum was called to order by the master of ceremonies, Mr. Shigenari Kato, secretary general of UPF-Japan’s Peace Diplomats Forum, Dr. Eiji Tokuno, president of UPF-Japan, gave the opening remarks.
Dr. Tokuno noted that this year is the 60th anniversary of Japan’s joining the United Nations and expressed that UPF, as a United Nations NGO, would work together with the UN and support the UN to realize lasting world peace.
Ambassador Tetsuya Endo, Japan’s first ambassador to the international organizations in Vienna and a representative advisor to the Peace Diplomats Forum, in his welcoming remarks pointed out the delicate position of Japan between striving for nuclear disarmament and being protected under the U.S. nuclear umbrella. He emphasized Japan’s role in keeping the world safe from nuclear threats.
The keynote speech was given by Ambassador Nobuyasu Abe, a former United Nations under-secretary general for disarmament affairs. The speech was begun by quoting the words of Mr. Donald Trump, a candidate to be the next U.S. president, about allowing Japan to build its own nuclear arsenals. However, Ambassador Abe definitely denied the possibility of Japan acquiring nuclear weapons, since Japan has many legal barriers to owning nuclear arms as well as a strong anti-nuclear sentiment among its people.
He also stressed the huge destructive forces of nuclear weapons, including the lingering effects of radiation and indiscriminate destruction, which is the reason to insist on abolishing nuclear weapons.
After the keynote speech and productive discussion among the participants, the ceremony of awarding two new Ambassadors for Peace was held. The certificates were given by Dr. Yong Cheon Song, regional chair of UPF-Japan, and Dr. Tokuno.
After the seminar’s closing, there was a time for the participants to enjoy refreshments and conversation with one another.

Milpitas Poised to Receive $1.38 million Annually for Local Transportation and Road Improvements
Milpitas Poised to Receive $1.38…
The City of Milpitas is set to receive the first installment of 2016 Measure B funds from the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) for local streets and road improvements. The anticipated $329,415 advance will directly contribute to the annual Street Resurfacing Program, providing much needed dollars to roadway pavement repair throughout the City. In addition to the one-time advance, Milpitas expects to receive dedicated money for this program on an on-going basis, projected to be approximately $1.38 million annually, over the next 30 years. In addition, VTA currently has $1 million of 2016 Measure B funding programmed specifically for Calaveras Near Term Improvements.
“This is great news for the entire County of Santa Clara region and specifically for Milpitas as we can move forward with much needed improvements to provide safe streets for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians and to address traffic congestion – a high priority for the Milpitas City Council”, said Milpitas Mayor, Rich Tran. “Voters made their voice heard with the overwhelming support of Measure B and now the residents and visitors of Milpitas will see their dollars hard at work.”
Santa Clara County voters approved 2016 Measure B, a 30-year, half-cent countywide sales tax to enhance transit, highways, expressways and active transportation (bicycles, pedestrians and complete streets). The measure passed by nearly 72%, the highest level of support for any Santa Clara County transportation tax. The release of 2016 Measure B funds have been held in a legal challenge, which was denied by the California Supreme Court on January 23, 2019. The funds collected over the nearly 2 years since the measure passed have been kept in an escrow account, currently totaling roughly $340 million. VTA celebrated the California Supreme Court’s favorable ruling by presenting the City of Milpitas with a commemorative $329,415 check, symbolizing a one-time advance amount for Local Streets and Roads maintenance and repair, at an event held this morning at VTA headquarters.
Included on the agenda for the February 5 City Council meeting, Council will consider the establishment of a Transportation Subcommittee led by Mayor Tran and Councilwoman Carmen Montano. The genesis of the concept was conveyed by Councilwoman Montano at a Council Budget Study Session held January 29 in acknowledgement of a number of transportation related issues identified as top priorities for the City. The Subcommittee would be charged with developing innovative solutions to address traffic, bike baths, street maintenance, parking, etc. Additionally, through this Subcommittee, the Milpitas community could provide input on how best to leverage 2016 Measure B funding, particularly as there are a number of grant opportunities available to go towards meeting the transportation needs of Milpitas residents and businesses.
Over the next 30 years, 2016 Measure B is anticipated to generate $6.3 billion for transportation projects, including VTA’s BART Silicon Valley Phase II, bicycle and pedestrian programs, Caltrain Corridor capacity improvements and grade separations, County expressways, highway interchanges, local streets and roads, State Route 85 Corridor and transit operations.

Home/Indicators of Change: Exploring Demographic, Social, and Economic Trends across California Communities
Article by Luis Sanchez
California Association of Human Resources Organizations (CAHRO) & California State University Channel Islands Sociology Program
One of CAHRO’s stated goals is to “build the capacity of organizations addressing human relations issues through information sharing, training, and technical assistance”. This series of reports, a collaboration between CAHRO and CSU Channel Islands Sociology students, contributes to this goal by providing community stakeholders access to empirical results related to various forms of demographic, social, and economic changes taking place across select California counties from 2000 to 2016. Using data from the 2000 Census and 2012-2016 American Community Survey (ACS), we document trends taking place across four broad categories: racial and ethnic change, income inequality, housing inequality, and population aging. The goal is that CAHRO and its network affiliates can use these descriptive portraits to gain a better understanding of contemporary changes in their respective counties and identify particular areas of need. This series includes reports for the following counties:
Sources: 1980, 1990, 2000 U.S. Censuses; 2012-2016 American Community Survey
California is currently a majority-minority state. Since 1980, the state’s Latino and Asian population continued to increase while the non-Hispanic white population substantially declined. Latinos (38.6%) and non-Hispanic whites (38.4%) currently represent California’s two largest racial-ethnic groups followed by non-Hispanic Asians (13.7%) and non-Hispanic blacks (5.6%). Despite the state’s increasing level of racial-ethnic diversity, our findings illustrate the persistence of income and housing inequalities faced by the state’s minority population.
We find robust evidence that California’s black and Latino populations experience lower household incomes, homeownership rates, home values, and are severely underrepresented in the highest income groups (as measured by income quintiles). Although these racial-ethnic differences somewhat varied across the counties included in the study, we find that black and Latinos’ socioeconomic standing fell below that of the non-Hispanic white population. Still, we find numerous counties where the Asian population fares better than non-Hispanic whites in terms of median household income and homeownership rates (see example below for Santa Clara County).
Source: 2000 U.S. Census and 2012-2016 American Community Survey
Concerning age structure, we generally find that most counties experienced increases in the proportion of their population comprised of those ages 65 years and older. We specifically measure these, and other age structure, trends using dependency ratios to compare the amount of youth (defined as those younger than 15 years old) and elderly (ages 65+) relative to those in the working-age population (ages 15-64 years old). In most cases, counties exhibited increases in the elderly-dependency ratio while demonstrating decreases in their youth-dependency ratio, the latter reflecting statewide trends in declining birth rates (see example below for Orange County). Lastly, we construct population pyramids as an alternative way to visualize the widespread population aging taking place across California counties.
Sources: 2000 U.S. Census and 2012-2016 American Community Survey
In sum, our “Indicators of Change” reports work to educate community leaders and stakeholders about recent population shifts so they are aware of contemporary and emerging issues so they might work to enact policies to improve human relations and promote equitable opportunities for their respective communities. We hope these reports serve as important contextual resources so that various organizations and groups can have a better understanding of their local communities. Many of these demographic and economic trends have profound influences on social interaction and shape numerous life outcomes.

Oxford University spinout Lumai secures £1.1m Innovate UK Smart Grant to power optical computing revolution
– Oxford start-up to bring optical neural networks to the UK market, which can be 1000x faster than traditional approaches
London, UK, 16th February 2023: Lumai, the start-up unlocking the potential of optical computing, today announced that it has been awarded a prestigious Innovate UK Smart Grant to commercialise its ground-breaking work in all-optical network training and deep optics for faster, more efficient computing.
Spinning out of The University of Oxford in January 2022, Lumai is developing all-optical neural networks for next-generation artificial intelligence (AI). With £1.1m in Smart funding won, the company is creating advanced optical computing processors where the information flow and calculations are not dependent on electronic processing. The Grant was awarded in conjunction with The University of Oxford, and follows its previous funding from IP Group plc, the developer of world-changing science and technology businesses, and Runa Capital, the Luxembourg-headquartered global venture capital firm.
Existing transistor-based digital electronics are struggling to support the potential offered by AI, especially with the explosive increase of computation demand to support breakthrough AI models such as ChatGPT. To combat this, Lumai’s computing platform is capable of energy-efficient and ultra-fast, parallel processing. Lumai’s optical neural networks can be 1000x faster – and much more sustainable – than existing transistor-based digital electronics.
The funding will support Lumai in building and launching optical neural networks for high-performance computing and machine vision, while simultaneously leading developments in advanced optical technologies.
Tim Weil, CEO at Lumai, commented: “The Innovate UK Smart Grant win is a testament to the team’s vision and passion to create optical computers that are significantly faster and consume less energy than traditional electronics. After spinning out from The University of Oxford, it’s fitting that we work together on the Innovate UK project to further enhance the capabilities of these advanced optical systems. We’re excited to be bringing Lumai’s game changing technology to the world, and we look forward to making our mark on the UK market and beyond.”
Prof. Alex Lvovsky, co-founder of Lumai and award-winning expert in optical computing, added: “There is vast potential for optical neural networks, and the backing from Innovate UK – alongside investment from IP Group plc and Runa Capital – will help us to develop our vision to build ONNs and deliver on the huge potential of optical computing.”
Innovate UK’s Smart Grant has focused eligibility criteria and scope to support SMEs and their partners to develop disruptive innovations with significant potential for rapid, economic return to the UK. Innovate UK, part of UK Research and Innovation, is investing up to £25 million in the best game-changing, and world leading ideas, designed for swift, successful commercialisation.

Copycat Table Lamp

Delivery to United Kingdom in 3 days
Table lighting fixture comprising an aluminium sphere machined from solid and then gold-coated with 24 K gold.
Blown glass opal diffuser. LED light source with dimmer switch on the power cable.
Michael Anastassiades founded his London design studio in 1994.
Schooled in industrial design and engineering at London's Royal College of Art and Imperial College – the Cypriot-born designer's lighting, mirrors, and tabletop objects reside between industrial design, sculpture and decorative art. Deceptively simple, yet meticulously detailed, they betray his training as a civil engineer and industrial designer.
Anastassiades is particularly renowned for his lighting products, which comprise 80% of his studio's commissions. Shiny surfaces combined with simple geometric shapes like tubes, oblongs and spheres, articulate architectural spaces. He often chooses reflective materials – such as mirrored glass and polished bronze – that appear to dematerialise his objects, to float independently, interacting with the space surrounding them.
Since collaborating with the architectural firm Studio Mumbai (2006), Anastassiades is increasingly working with some of the world's leading architects – including David Chipperfield and John Pawson – and interior designers such as Studio Ilse. His lights can be seen in hotels, restaurants and stores worldwide – including the Grand Hotel Stockholm, Soho House New York and the Sergio Rossi boutiques worldwide.
Besides being commissioned and collected by private patrons and clients all over the world – Anastassiades has worked with many world renowned cutting-edge designers and prestigious manufacturers, including Hussein Chalayan (1997-8) Swarovski Crystal Palace (2004), Lobmeyer (2012) and Svenskt Tenn (2013). This year, he will be launching two 'families' of lights for Flos.
Featured in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the FRAC Centre in Orleans, France, and the V&A Museum and Crafts Council in London, his designs have also been showcased at world-renowned galleries and arts organisations including London's Institute of Contemporary Arts, the Design Museum, Somerset House and Sotheby's; and Mitterand + Cramer in Geneva. Represented by the Nilufar Gallery in Milan – this follows the gallery's commission to create the ‘Lit Lines’ series of lights (exhibited at Palazzo Durini in 2011) and the ‘Tree in the Moonlight’ lamp which formed part of their Unlimited Collection (2012) .
For over fifty years we have been crafting objects of light and spreading brightness on generations of dreams

NEW CAREER PATHWAYS CENTER
Volunteers from 3M helped ready the new Career Pathway Center on the Saint Paul College campus on Aug. 31, 2022. The new Saint Paul Public Schools learning space features classrooms, state-of-the-art technology and equipment, collaboration areas and an outdoor courtyard where students from numerous post-secondary institutions can pursue college courses, industry, trade, advanced manufacturing, Vo Tech certifications and internships. The transformation was led by national education nonprofit Heart of America.
Over the next five years, 3M has committed $1.375 million to support this program. It will give students from all SPPS high schools equitable access to college courses offered by faculty from numerous post-secondary institutions including: Bethel University, Century College, Dakota County Technical College, Minneapolis Community & Technical College, Minnesota State University - Mankato, Online College in the High Schools, Saint Catherine’s University and Saint Paul College.
Career Pathways are part of the SPPS Strategic Plan led by Superintendent Dr. Joe Gothard and the visionary work of the late Darren Ginther, SPPS Director of the Office of College and Career Readiness. SPPS extends their gratitude for the long-term commitment of anchor partners 3M, Greater Twin Cities United Way, Right Track Center for Youth Employment and now, Heart of America, for believing in our students.
Superintendent Gothard remarked, “This districtwide program is the next phase of the college and career readiness work that is part of our SPPS Achieves strategic plan. With pathways in science and medical, business and communications, human services, and innovative and emerging technologies, high school students can graduate already having gained real-world experience, industry certifications, college credit and internships in the field of their choice.
“I am so proud of this work, and so excited about the future for this first cohort of students, and the many to come after them. Students, you have made an excellent decision enrolling in this program, and we can’t wait to see what you accomplish.”
It cost $500,000 for the space, renovations and programming/staffing costs. “The fair market value of the cost of the project is typically 1.5 to 2.25 more than the actual funding received due to our ability to work with our product and service vendors to procure free and/or deeply discounted prices,” observed Tim Tormoen of Heart of America Foundation. HOA provides high-quality resources and transforms spaces in under-resourced schools, helping to close the gap in education spending by creating modern learning environments that are essential for children to reach their potential in a rapidly changing world. Heart of America has served more than two million students in need by distributing more than 4.3 million books, investing $7.5 million in technology, and transforming over 800 community spaces, including public libraries, athletic facilities, technology labs, workforce development centers and schools in historically under-invested communities across North America and Puerto Rico.

Digest 1.4.2018 The State AG Report Weekly Update

Cozen O’Connor Opens New State AG Practice Office in Richmond, Virginia
Cozen O’Connor has opened an office in Richmond, Virginia, where the firm’s State AG Practice will offer executive and legislative branch strategies and services for companies operating in Virginia.
The Virginia team will be led by Jerry Kilgore, a member of Cozen O’Connor’s State AG practice and former Virginia AG. Ashley Allen, attorney and former vice president at a Virginia-based public affairs firm, has also joined Cozen O’Connor to help develop the state government and legislative practice and will be based in the new Richmond office.
Washington Attorney General Amends Lawsuit Against Cable and Internet Provider, Alleges More Deceptive Conduct
Washington AG Bob Ferguson amended his lawsuit against cable and internet service provider Comcast Corporation (“Comcast”) over allegations that the company violated the Washington Consumer Protection Act by misleading consumers.
As previously reported, AG Ferguson in August 2016 filed a lawsuit against Comcast alleging that they offered a Service Protection Plan (“SPP”) with limited uses and applications, charged service fees when the company guaranteed service visits would be free of charge, and carried out unauthorized credit checks.
According to the AG’s office, new evidence has emerged allegedly revealing that Comcast may have signed up more than half of all SPP subscribers without their knowledge or consent and that, in some instances, Comcast represented to customers that the SPP plan was “free,” but later charged them after the first month.
The lawsuit seeks more than $100 million, including a restitution payment of $73 million, civil penalties in the amount of $2,000 per violation of the Consumer Protection Act, and the removal of improper credit checks on consumers’ credit reports.
Washington Attorney General Files Lawsuit Against Hotel Chain Over Alleged Privacy Violations
Washington AG Ferguson filed a lawsuit against national hotel chain Motel 6 Operating L.P. (“Motel 6”) over allegations that it violated the state’s Consumer Protection Act and Law Against Discrimination.
According to the complaint, Motel 6 allegedly released the personal information of guests staying at Motel 6 locations in Washington to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”) despite its privacy policy assuring consumers their information was protected, and also allegedly knew that ICE used its guest lists to target consumers based on national origin.
The lawsuit seeks a permanent injunction enjoining and restraining Motel 6 from engaging in violations of the Consumer Protection Act and Law Against Discrimination, civil penalties, and other relief the Court may deem just and proper.
51 Attorneys General Reach Settlement with Pharmaceutical Company Over Alleged Off-Label Marketing of Prescription Drugs
51 AGs reached a settlement with pharmaceutical company Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“BIPI”) for allegedly violating their states’ consumer fraud laws by engaging in deceptive and misleading representation and off-label marketing of its specialty prescription drugs.
According to the AGs, BIPI allegedly misrepresented that its antiplatelet drug, Aggrenox, was effective for conditions such as heart attacks and congestive heart failure, without evidence to substantiate that claim; misrepresented that its drug Micardis protected patients from early morning strokes and heart attacks and treated metabolic syndrome; misrepresented that its drug Combivent could be used as a first-line treatment for bronchospasms associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); and falsely stated that its drugs Atrovent and Combivent could be used at doses that exceeded the maximum dosage recommendation in the product labeling.
Under the terms of the settlements, BIPI will pay a combined $13.5 million to the 50 states and the District of Columbia.
North Carolina Attorney General Files Lawsuit Against Opioid Manufacturer Over Alleged Kickbacks and Deceptive Business Practices
North Carolina AG Josh Stein filed a lawsuit against opioid manufacturer Insys Therapeutics, Inc. (“Insys”) for allegedly violating the state’s Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act by prescribing Subsys, its opioid fentanyl drug, to patients without cancer as a part of a scheme to expand the market for an opioid intended only for terminally-ill cancer patients.
According to the complaint, Insys gave illegal kickbacks—often in the form of speaking fees—to doctors who prescribed Subsys to non-cancer patients, deceived and defrauded health insurance companies into paying for Susbys prescriptions, and provided financial incentives to Insys sales staff to encourage doctors to “switch” non-cancer patients to Subsys.
The lawsuit seeks a permanent injunction to restrain Insys from engaging in deceptive trade practices, as well as civil penalties, disgorgement of profits, attorneys’ fees, and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper.

National Association of Attorneys General Appoints New Executive Director
The National Association of Attorneys General (“NAAG”) appointed Chris Toth to serve as Executive Director. This follows the U.S. Senate’s confirmation of former Executive Director Jim McPherson to serve as general counsel to the U.S. Department of the Army.
The 12-member NAAG executive committee, chaired by NAAG President and Kansas AG Derek Schmidt, selected the new Executive Director.
Toth previously served as NAAG Deputy Executive Director from February 2004 until December 2017 and as the Director of the National Attorneys General Training and Research Institute (NAGTRI) during the same time period. Toth has served as a Navy officer on both active duty and the reserves as well as an Army officer.
8 Attorneys General File Lawsuit Against EPA Over Enforcement of Clean Air Act, Out-Of-State Air Pollution
8 Democratic AGs, led by New York AG Eric Schneiderman, filed a lawsuit against the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) for allegedly failing to control out-of-state air pollution, or “interstate smog.”
According to the AGs, the EPA has reason to believe that the interstate transportation of air pollution significantly contributes to exceedances of the federal standards for smog.
The AGs’ lawsuit seeks to add nine additional upwind states—Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia—to the Ozone Transport Region, a regulatory group of states established under the Clean Air Act that must act in concert to reduce smog pollution within the region. The suit challenges the EPA’s November 2017 denial of a petition, filed by the Democratic AGs in late 2013, requesting those nine states be added to the Ozone Transport Zone.
17 Attorneys General Urge Administration Against Withdrawing Rule Requiring Airlines to Disclose Baggage Fees Upfront
17 Democratic AGs, led by Pennsylvania AG Josh Shapiro, sent a letter to U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao asking that the Trump Administration not withdraw the Transparency of Airline Ancillary Service Fees rule, which requires airlines and third-party booking companies to disclose baggage fees and other charges.
According to the AGs’ letter, the Transparency of Airline Ancillary Service Fees rule, proposed in January 2017, would have made it easier for consumers to understand the “true cost” of their airline tickets by disclosing carry-on baggage fees, checked baggage fees, and seat fees that are not disclosed until booking is nearly complete.

LOCAL COVERAGE / MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL
ECS staff report
LA JOLLA – Long before former University of Michigan head coach Steve Fisher came to town to turn the San Diego State men’s basketball team into a Top 25 program, the staff of the Aztecs athletic department made several attempts to transform SDSU into “more than a football school.”
One such attempt was the introduction of the Cabrillo Classic tournament, which was conducted at the then-named San Diego Sports Arena decades before the current Viejas Arena was even a dream.
The Cabrillo Classic was a nice solid event, but really gained national attention one year when enough money was raised to entice head coach Dean Smith and his North Carolina Tar Heels to town to play the Aztecs. This was during the heyday of Carolina basketball when Smith’s ballclubs were always nationally ranked.
Sure, the Tar Heels won (103-92, on Dec. 29, 1988), before a sell-out crowd, with the Aztecs gaining the touch of the national spotlight they deeply desired.
In 2023-24
Turning the clock forward to the 2023-24 season, the new Division I program at UC San Diego will also have national television cameras pointed in their direction when the Tritons host the inaugral Rady Children’s Invitational College Basketball Tournament
The announcement was made by Mark Neville, CEO of Sports San Diego,which also produces the Holiday Bowl college football game.
The two-day event, slated for Nov. 28-29, 2023 (Thanksgiving Day and Friday), on Fox television, will feature four top-flight Division I ballclubs — the Oklahoma Sooners (Big 12)., Seton Hall Pirates (Big East), Iowa Hawkeyes (Big 10), and the USC Trojans (final season in the Pac-10).
All contests will be played at UC San Diego’s LionTree Arena (formerly RIMAC Arena).
Unlike other events, UC San Diego will not be playing in the event, just hosting to allow the nation know about its program, which will soon became a full-time NCAA Division I member with full eligibility for the NCAA Championships.
Just like other small and mid-size West Coast universities like Pepperdine, Loyola Marymount, Occidental, San Francisco, Santa Clara and others, did you know UC San Diego once fielded a varsity football team.
In 1968, the Triton played an 7-game schedule — only two at home La Verne and Cal Western; thefuture USIU) — and lost them all, including a game to Cal Tech at historic Tournament Park in Pasadena. The Engineers ended a 34-game losing streak that stretched back to their 1964 season
Don’t worry: UCSD wasn’t the poorest football team in America that season. While San Diego State went 9-0-1 as an major-college independent, Cal Poly Pomona went 0-10.
At least the Tritons were never shutout.
The UCSD football field was located across the street from the current varsity swimming pool, just over the bridge on the west side of Interstate 5 at Scripps Hospital.
The field was also the home for San Diego Chargers training camp for a few years.

Latin America’s ‘Liberals, Rogues and Enablers’
DemDigest May 11, 2016 January 30, 2019
Despite the majority of Latin America’s governments being (at least nominally) democratic, there is no clear pattern of support for democratic institutions and rights, neither among neighboring states nor in much of the developing world, says a new report from Global Americans.
In existing global multilateral bodies (the UN Security Council and the United Nations Human Rights Council), countries such as Venezuela, the Dominican Republic and Bolivia tend to abstain or vote against any form of comment or criticism in the name of defending political and civil rights in countries from Belarus to China to North Korea. Even countries like Brazil and Colombia, at times, toned down their public commitment to human rights and democracy when it came to China, Russia or Turkey. In contrast, countries like Argentina, Chile, Costa Rica, Mexico, and Uruguay remain stalwart defenders of human rights in the UN, says the report, Liberals, Rogues and Enablers:
In the OAS inter-American system of human rights, those countries that have been strong advocates for human rights in the UN tend to be so in the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR or Commission) and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (Court), with the exception of Argentina. That difference came in the refusal of the previous Argentine administration to accept civil society’s complaints to the Commission concerning judicial independence. Overall, the inter-American system has been under attack from other corners as well, as we discuss, including from an alliance of countries led by Ecuador to weaken the IACHR in 2011, and from Venezuela and the Dominican Republic, which have refused to accept the system’s jurisdiction over domestic cases, effectively removing themselves from the system.

SPE Distinguished Lecture-“The Exceptional Price Performance of Oil- Explanations and Prospects” by Dr Roberto F. Aguilera
IST Civil Building, room VA1 | Jan 14 | 12:00
On 14th January, at 12h00, the seminar entitled “The Exceptional Price Performance of Oil- Explanations and Prospects” will be held by Dr. Roberto F. Aguilera – SPE Distinguished Lecturer (Society of Petroleum Engineers).
Oil price developments over the past 45 years have been truly spectacular. In constant money, prices rose by 759% between 1970- 72 and 2012-14. This can be compared with a price index for metals and minerals, which increased by a mere 38%. Analysis shows that the exceptionality of oil’s upward price push over the past decades cannot be adequately explained by cost-raising depletion or by OPEC interventions. The better explanation is an inadequate development of production capacity, caused by above-ground hurdles; e.g. onerous fiscal regimes and conflicts over resource rents. Despite past experience, a turning point has been reached where scarcity, uncertain supply and high prices will be replaced by abundance, undisturbed availability and suppressed price levels. Technical advances in drilling and hydraulic fracturing, which led to fast rising oil and natural gas production in the US but is also applicable to unconventional and conventional formations worldwide, will assure ample and diversified future supply.
Although short-run price spikes may occur, oil prices are unlikely to prevail above the total production costs of new supplies, which are estimated to settle at $40-60/barrel in the coming two decades. Expanding global gas output and trade will likely depress gas prices as well. It is concluded that oil and gas will continue to play an important role in satisfying energy demand, from Asia to the Americas, with innovation that will allow for economic production in spite of low prices.
Roberto F. Aguilera is a Research Fellow with Curtin University, Australia. From 2013–2017, he was an analyst with the OPEC Secretariat, Vienna, and a co-author of their annual World Oil Outlook. Previous affiliations include IIASA, University of Vienna, Catholic University of Chile and Servipetrol. He has participated in numerous energy studies, including with the World Petroleum Council and US National Petroleum Council. He holds PhD and Master degrees from Colorado School of Mines and a Bachelor’s from Haskayne School of Business, Uni-versity of Calgary. His publication record comprises The Price of Oil, a book published by Cambridge University Press (2015)

SAFE & EC Release Report Containing Policy Recommendations to Advance Adoption of V2G Technology
WASHINGTON, D.C. – SAFE and the Electrification Coalition released a report on Wednesday that highlights policy opportunities to accelerate the adoption of vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology. As electric vehicle (EV) adoption accelerates across all vehicle classes, V2G capability can help manage system load and provide power back to the grid during times of need, thereby strengthening the resiliency of the U.S. electric grid. The transition to transportation electrification reduces our dependency on oil and improves energy and national security.
The report, “Advancing Vehicle-to-Grid Technology Adoption,” calls on policy makers to “future-proof” electric vehicles and charging infrastructure to ensure that the U.S. is poised to take advantage of V2G’s many benefits. Given increased frequency of unprecedented extreme weather events, the technology can enhance critical infrastructure resilience and emergency preparedness. V2G enables EVs to serve as “mobile energy storage units” and can provide power during outages. With bidirectional charging technology, EVs can help manage system loads during periods of high electricity demand. A single electric school bus, for example, has enough battery storage capacity to power a hospital operating room for almost two full days.
The technology can help accelerate the adoption of EVs by unlocking these and other new value streams for EV owners and mitigating the total cost of ownership. With the appropriate policies in place, EV owners could receive compensation for the grid services their vehicles provide. These benefits can apply to all vehicle sectors, from light-duty passenger vehicles to medium- and heavy-duty trucks and buses.
Several factors have limited the U.S.’s ability to utilize this exciting technology and its associated value streams. Combined with inadequate incentives to deploy EVs and EV charging infrastructure, V2G adoption has been delayed by insufficient awareness, concerns over battery degradation and warranty issues, an absence of uniform national technical standards, and a lack of coordination among key stakeholders, among other factors.
“The solutions identified in this report will help overcome existing challenges and barriers to deployment,” Robbie Diamond, CEO and founder of SAFE and the Electrification Coalition, said. “But policymakers must act now. We cannot afford for V2G capabilities to be an afterthought during the electrification of our transportation system. It is time to advance beyond V2G pilot programs and begin full-scale adoption.”
New policies are required to facilitate the widespread and rapid adoption of V2G technology, so that U.S. communities can access its benefits. The report highlights key federal, regional, and state policy recommendations for deploying V2G technology at scale, just a few of which include:
Extend and expand the “Alternative Fuel Refueling Property” (Section 30C) tax credit
Incorporate electric vehicles with V2G capabilities into emergency planning and preparedness efforts, and prioritize the deployment of bidirectional charging equipment at critical facilities
Develop a national V2G Roadmap
The policy recommendations contained in this report represent the latest step in SAFE and the Electrification Coalition’s ongoing V2G Initiative. They aim to accelerate the adoption of this crucial technology by building on recently enacted federal V2G policies.

C5a micro ELISA
C5a micro ELISA quantity
SKU: EIA-3327 Categories: Enzyme Immunoassays, Immunology/Hematology
An enzyme immunoassay for the quantitative measurement of anaphylatoxin C5a in human plasma or urine.
The complement system consists of more than 20 proteins which evolved as defense system against invading microorganisms. It can also be activated in a variety of disease states or upon contact with medical devices or drugs (1). Upon activation, a cascade of proteolytic enzymes releases the anaphylatoxins C3a, C4a and C5a from their respective precursors (2). These fragments exert various biological functions such as histamine release, smooth muscle contraction, increase in capillary permeability or immunomodulation (3). In addition, C5a and its degraded form C5a-desArg are highly potent chemotactic agents for polymorphonuclear leukocytes, which then will release tissue degradative enzymes and oxygen radicals (4). This in turn will also lead to activation of other humoral systems such as coagulation and fibrinolysis (5). Thus, C5a is probably the most important complement-derived proinflammatory mediator. C5a is believed to play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of septic shock, the adult respiratory distress syndrome, acute pancreatitis and the
deleterious effects after myardial infarction (6,7,8). Recently it has been shown that C5a is closely associated with the capillary leak syndrome in leukemic children after bone marrow transplantation. C5a is also a marker in urine for predicting the onset of acute graft rejection after kidney transplantation (9). With respect to possible deleterious consequences, C5a determination may be indicated during hemodialysis, after cardiopulmonary bypass or after any other contact with medical devices (10).
The DRG C5a ELISA Kit is a solid phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on the sandwich principle. Due to cross-reactivity of the monoclonal antibodies with complement factor C5, C5 in the sample is removed by precipitation prior to analysis. The resulting clear supernatant contains the C5a to be determined (10,11). During the first incubation the C5a in the sample binds to murine anti C5a monoclonal antibodies (mab 561), which are attached to the surface of the microtitration plate. Unbound constituents are then removed by washing and, in a second reaction, peroxidase conjugated monoclonal antibodies (Mab 557) are added and bound to a different epitope on C5a. The excess enzyme conjugated antibodies are removed by washing; the bound enzyme activity is then determined. The enzymatic reaction between hydrogen peroxide and chromogen is terminated by the addition of dilute sulphuric acid. The intensity of the colour intensity, which is proportional to the concentration of C5a, is determined photometrically.

All art is dependent on human connection: A connection between performer and audience, composer and performer. Without connection, there is no understanding. The bond of human to human is important at all levels. Perhaps no relationship is more important in music than that of teacher to pupil, transmitting the sacred art of music through time and place, to ever-greater degrees of innovation.
The saxophone is an instrument new to the world. Without the intervention of bold compositional minds, the instrument would still be languishing, instead of enjoying the rich, varied repertoire that it now possesses. One of the greatest artistic lights of the 20th Century, Paul Hindemith (1895-1963), saw the promise of the saxophone, writing for it in such works as the Konzertstück for two alto saxophones. Through his influence as a pedagogue, he also helped establish a continued history for the instrument.
One of Hindemith’s students was Bernhard Heiden (1910-2000). A native of Frankfurt, Heiden studied with the older composer at the Hochschule für Musik in Berlin. After initial success in his native country, the young musician fled in 1935 to Detroit, where he soon came into contact with virtuosic American saxophonist Larry Teal, yielding the Sonata for alto saxophone and piano in 1937. Following service as a U.S. Army bandmaster in the Second World War and graduate study at Cornell University, Heiden joined the faculty of the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. Here, he came into close contact with saxophonist and pedagogue Eugene Rosseau, for whom he wrote a wealth of literature, including Four Movements for Saxophone Quartet and Timpani (1976).
Heiden taught at Indiana until 1974 and had a large impact on a generation of composers. Among his students was Frederick Fox (1931-2011). A jazz and classical saxophonist, Fox was a native Michigander and student of Larry Teal. Following undergraduate studies at Wayne State University, he pursued graduate degrees in composition at Indiana University. He was subsequently appointed to the faculty at the same institution in 1974 and was promoted to chair of the composition department in 1981, retiring in 1994. Throughout his career, he wrote widely in a variety of mediums, but left behind a large body of works for his own instrument, including The Avenging Spirit (1989).
Among Fox’s students was David Dzubay, the current chair of the composition department at Indiana University, where he has taught since 1992. Dzubay’s music has been performed by ensembles of the highest caliber including the Atlanta, Boston, Cincinnati, Detroit, Minnesota, and St. Louis Symphonies. Like his teachers, however, he holds the saxophone in high regard, and has written widely and well for the instrument. An example of this is his first work for saxophone quartet, Di/Con[ver(gence/sions)] (1988).
Through connection, mixed with personal innovation, the saxophone has advanced. Between performer, composer, and audience, the instrument continues to grow. What will be the next step?

29th of August
Key Events & Deaths on this day in Northern Ireland Troubles
Following the visit to Northern Ireland by James Callaghan, then British Home Secretary, a Communiqué on behalf of the Northern Ireland and British governments was released. This communiqué provided an outline of the work that would be undertaken on a number of further reforms mainly in the area of local government administration, housing, and employment.
A Catholic man died 16 days after being shot by the British Army in Belfast.
The Irish Republican Army (IRA) planted two bombs in Solihull, England and also planted an incendiary device in Harrod’s store in London.
The Irish Republican Army (IRA) planted a booby-trapped time bomb in Kensington Church Street, London, and then gave a telephone warning. Roger Goad (40), who was a British Army officer in a bomb-disposal squad, was killed as he tried to defuse the device.
[Goad was posthumously awarded the George Cross.]
A member of the youth section of the IRA was shot dead by Loyalists in Belfast.
Eamon de Valera died at the age of 92.
Margaret Thatcher, then British Prime Minister, paid a visit to Northern Ireland to hold discussions on security. In Rome it was announced that Pope John Paul II would not travel to Armagh during his forthcoming visit to Ireland on 29 September 1979.
Claims of Collusion between Loyalists and Security Forces
The Ulster Freedom Fighters (UFF) claimed that they had received security force files on Irish Republican Army (IRA) suspects. It was claimed that the death of Loughlin Maginn on 25 August 1989 was due to information supplied to the UFF by members of the security forces.
[These claims revived accusations of security force collusion with Loyalist paramilitaries.]
Sinn Féin (SF) won a by-election for a seat on Belfast City Council. This victory brought the party’s representation to 9 members making it the second-largest party in the council.
Gerry Adams, then President of Sinn Féin (SF), said that he had met the Army Council of the Irish Republican Army (IRA). He indicated that he told the Council that he believed that the conditions existed for moving the peace process forward.
Announcement that SF Could Enter Talks
Marjorie (Mo) Mowlam, then Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, said that she “accepted the veracity” of the renewed Irish Republican Army (IRA) ceasefire and would therefore be inviting Sinn Féin (SF) to attend the multi-party talks at Stormont, Belfast, on 15 September 1997.
The Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) said that it would attend the talks but would not sit at the same table as SF. Tony Blair, then British Prime Minister, and Bertie Ahern, then Taoiseach (Irish Prime Minister), issued a joint appeal to all Unionists to joint the multi-party talks on 15 September 1997.
A British army bomb disposal unit defused a pipe-bomb found near a Catholic church in County Antrim. The bomb had been left in the graveyard of St. Peter the Rock, on the Rock Road in Lisburn. The attack was carried out by Loyalist paramilitaries.
Loyalists also carried out a paramilitary ‘punishment’ shooting on a man in Antrim, and were also responsible for two beatings in east Belfast and Glengormley.
A Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) clubhouse in Ahoghill, County Antrim, was damaged in an arson attack. The IRA expelled two young men from the Ardoyne in north Belfast and the Short Strand in east Belfast. John Hume, then leader of the Social Democratic and Labour Party (SDLP), was taken into hospital in Austria for an operation on a perforated intestine.
Loyalist paramilitaries carried out a pipe-bomb attack on the home of a Catholic family in Ballynahinch, County Down. Two devices exploded at the house shortly before 3.00am (0300BST); there were no injuries in the attack. The owner of the house blamed the Ulster Defence Association (UDA) for the attack.
The Red Hand Defenders (RHD), a cover name that has been used by members of the Ulster Defence Association (UDA), claimed responsibility for the attack.
[There were other attacks on Catholic families in the same street on 1 February 2001.]
Two pipe-bombs were discovered and defused in Ballycastle, County Antrim. The bombs were discovered close to where a car bomb had been left on 28 August 2001. The first device was found near the Marine Hotel and the second ‘pipe bomb’ was later found at the Boyd Arms public house in the Diamond area of the town.
Sean Farren, then Minister for Higher and Further Education, Training and Employment, said that there was clear evidence that the UDA ceasefire was in some areas “completely non-existent”. Speaking in the aftermath of the bombing attempt in Balllycastle, County Antrim, on 28 August 2001 he said that the British government must acknowledge the UDA ceasefire was not operating in some parts of the North and must take action against those behind the recent attacks.
A delegation from Sinn Féin led by Mitchel McLaughlin, then SF Chairman, held talks with Des Browne, then junior Northern Ireland minister, to discuss the problems still facing the peace process. Browne later said that the British government was keeping a close eye on Loyalist paramilitary ceasefires following recent bomb attacks. He said:
“the implications for those Loyalist groups engaged in these despicable acts … will be very serious”.
The Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) press office confirmed that two senior officers, thought to be from Special Branch, had travelled to Colombia to assist the investigation into the activities of the three Irishmen arrested on 13 August 2001.

07 Nov WE SEE HEAVEN UPSIDE DOWN
Posted at 15:40h in Past Exhibitions by Elder Gallery of Contemporary Art
We See Heaven Upside Down is group exhibition with seven visual artists and one film maker of regional, national and international recognition. Additionally, several international composers and musicians have contributed new original music for a live performance-turned-music installation. In and through visual and performing arts, the exhibition seeks to spur and inspire moments of genuine empathy towards other individuals and their journeys. At the heart of this multi-disciplinary exhibition are compelling stories of migration, displacement, identity and home, expressed through visual and performing arts.
We See Heaven Upside Down is presented by the gallery in partnership with Moving Poets.

Luger, a Santa Fe-based Native American multi-disciplinary artist, and winner of the inaugural Burke Prize for contemporary craft by the Museum of Arts and Design, was raised on the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in North Dakota.

Nico Amortegui (Colombia)
Nico Amortegui was born and raised in Bogotá, Colombia, and has worked in the United States since the 1990s. His current artistic foci include large-scale paintings on canvas or wood panels, and sculpting and wood-working with found objects. As an immigrant, he became acutely aware of the challenges faced by those aspiring to achieve the “American Dream”. Throughout his practice, he provides snapshots of lifestyles repeatedly tasked with transitions—his own and of those he encountered along the way. He creates portraits of those who defied the odds. Amortegui’s joyful yet jarring work, often filled with unapologetic color, is an immediate product of his expressed energies—that is to say: there are no sketches or previous drawings. Working solely in the present moment, urgency, rawness and pace transfer to the canvas. His latest public commission can be seen at Charlotte Douglas International Airport. His work has been shown throughout the the United States, notably at the Smithsonian Anacostia Museum (Washington DC), Levine Museum of the New South, McColl Center for Arts and Innovation, Mint Museum, Duke Energy Children’s Museum (Cincinnati), and Art Basel (Espitia Gallery, Miami). He now resides in Charlotte with his wife and two daughters.
Luis Coray (Switzerland)
For decades, the Swiss artist Luis Coray has made a name for himself as a visual artist and performer. His paintings register an interplay of light and shadow, and dialogues between past and present, loss and recovery. Coray’s sensitive visual language often reflects his unique cultural identity: Romansh, an ethnic minority from the remote Swiss Alpine regions who speak an ancient endangered language. He studied art history at the University of Zurich and visual design at the Zurich University of the Arts. Additionally, Coray has trained with contemporary luminaries: conceptual artist Not Vital at the Academy of the Art School Liechtenstein and performance artist Tino Sehgal at the Beyeler-Museum, Riehen. His work has been exhibited in Switzerland and Germany and can be found in private and public collections including Graubündner Cantonal Bank, City of Chur (Switzerland), Canton Graubünden, the Lia Rumantscha Institute and RTR Radiotelevisiun Svizra Rumantscha, Cuira. His awards include the 2015 Arts Award from Canton of Grisons, Berlin Department of Culture Studio residency and the 2008 Cultural Contribution prize in Grisons. He lives in Chur with his wife and three daughters.
MyLoan Dinh (Vietnam)
MyLoan Dinh was born in Saigon, Vietnam. On April 30, 1975, during the Fall of Saigon, she and her family fled by sea, eventually resettling in Charlotte, NC. Majoring in visual arts, Dinh studied at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the School of Arts and Design at Wollongong University New South Wales, Australia. She is the founder of the international multidisciplinary arts project, We See Heaven Upside Down. Her mixed-media work explores the porous boundary between personal and collective history. Reflecting on her experiences as an immigrant and woman of color, her work often addresses everyday manifestations of cultural identity, memory and displacement. She has exhibited internationally, and her work can be found in private collections in the United States, Germany and Switzerland. Her awards include: Arts & Science Council Regional Artist Project Grant (Charlotte, NC), Berlin Department of Arts and Culture Artist Grant (Treptow-Köpenick), and the Partnership for Democracy Project Grant (Berlin) and Arts & Science Council 2018 Cultural Vision Grant (in collaboration with Moving Poets). Dinh is a member of the Asian American Women Artists Association (AAWAA) and the BKK, Professional Association of Visual Artists Berlin. She and her husband, Till Schmidt-Rimpler, founder and artistic director of Moving Poets, have creative projects in the USA and Germany.
Michelle Gregory (USA)
Michelle “Bunny” Gregory was born and raised in Charlotte, NC. She graduated with a degree in fashion illustration from the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. After her degree, she was the head of design for the special events firm, Creatrix. Since 2000, she has collaborated with Moving Poets as a costume designer. In 2010, she was invited for a three-week artist residency in Berlin, Germany. Growing up in the 70s and 80s, Bunny realized there weren’t any known venues for Black artists to express themselves in Charlotte. Because of her love for hip hop and pop art, she opened her own venue, the UNDERGROUND, in 2014, which quickly became a staple platform for Charlotte-based urban artists, musicians and poets. In 2017, Bunny was dubbed “Queen Mother of Charlotte’s Underground Hip Hop” by Creative Loafing Magazine. She is currently working on creating a “Harlem Renaissance” on wheels: the UNDERGROUND Mobile Art Studio & Gallery for young black artists, serving low income youth in West Charlotte where she grew up. Her mixed-media studio work is heavily influenced by Afrocentric culture addressing issues of racial and economic disparity, and often utilizes illustration, comic book-style drawings, pen & ink and collage on salvaged boards.
Cannupa Hanska Luger (USA)
Cannupa Hanska Luger is a New Mexico-based, multi-disciplinary artist. Raised on the Standing Rock Reservation in North Dakota, he is of Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara, Lakota, Austrian, and Norwegian descent. Through social collaboration and by responding to timely and site-specific issues, Luger produces multi-pronged projects of many forms. Through monumental installations that incorporate ceramics, video, sound, fiber, steel, and cut-paper, Luger interweaves performance and political action to communicate stories about 21st-century Indigeneity. Luger is the recipient of the NYC Museum of Arts and Design’s 2018 Burke Prize, an inaugural award celebrating ‘highly accomplished work, strong use of materials, innovative processes, and conceptual rigor and relevance’. Luger has exhibited internationally, including the Princeton University Art Museum, Washington Project for the Arts, Art Mûr (Montreal), Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art (AR), Orenda Gallery (Paris), Autry Museum of the American West, and the National Center for Civil and Human Rights (Atlanta). He lectures and participates in residencies around the globe and his work is collected internationally. Luger holds a BFA in studio arts from the Institute of American Indian Arts.
Susanne Roewer (Germany)
Susanne Roewer was born in Bad Schlema, Germany, and graduated with a master’s degree in sculpture at the Universität der Künste, Berlin. Via extensive research, her work critically references historical figures and events, folk art and fables, as well as current socio-political debates. Her sculptures are rooted in her explorations of elementary materials, such as metal, stone or glass, combining figurative and abstract elements. Roewer’s works display conceptual wit alongside an artistic sensibility for materiality. She was the co-founder of the G7 Berlin Network Gallery, together with fellow artists Gregor Hildebrand and Roger Wardin, before moving to Switzerland to collaborate with various collectors and sponsorship programs. Her works have been exhibited internationally, notably the Fort Wayne Museum of Art (Indiana, together with Georges Beasley), the Fondacion Abanico (Geneva), at Il Giardino di Daniel Spoerri (Italy), Momentum Hot Glass (Toledo/Ohio), Art Basel (Switzerland and Miami), Farhang Foundation at the Craft and Folk Museum (Los Angeles) and a solo exhibition at the Kunstverein Kreis Gütersloh. Roewer lives and works in Berlin, Germany. Parallel to the exhibition at Elder Gallery of Contemporary Art, Susanne Roewer will be presented by Galerie Kornfeld in Berlin. The opening is part of the international Gallery Weekend Berlin 2019.

Her work was recently featured in a solo exhibition at Georgia College’s Leland Gallery in October 2018. She has been a guest speaker for the North Carolina ASC, Johnson & Wales University, George Washington University, the National Association of Latino Arts and Culture, and the Southern Foodways Alliance.

Clouser’s music trio, A Love Electric, explores his songwriting while honoring the jazz tradition’s inquisitiveness and fearlessness, together with Latin Grammy award winner, Hernan Hecht, on drums and Aaron Cruz on bass. Mexico City’s La Jornada named them “one of the most important acts of recent years”. The trio has released 6 records on labels in the US and Mexico while performing nearly 1,000 concerts over the span of 7 years.
Philanthropy and community outreach have been important facets of Clouser’s work in Mexico and beyond. With the founding of his “Music Mission” initiative, he and patrons have donated thousands of dollars worth of instruments, educational materials, workshops and basic needs to support communities in Nicaragua, Chiapas, Oaxaca, Mexico City and Durango. He is also the founder of Ropeadope Sur, a record label based in Mexico City which focuses on showcasing under-recognized Mexican musicians. The first act they signed, for instance, was Los Cardencheros de Sapioriz, an acapella group singing slave-era songs on the ranches of northern Mexico.

Around London – Leading ladies of the 18th century at NPG; “at risk” in London; and, Antarctic images at the Queen’s Gallery…
by exploringlondon October 20, 2011
• A new exhibition featuring some of London’s leading ladies of the eighteenth century opens at the National Portrait Gallery today. The First Actresses: Nell Gwyn to Sarah Siddons is the first exhibition devoted to eighteenth century actresses and features 53 portraits depicting the likes of Gwyn and Siddons as well as Lavinia Fenton, Mary Robinson and Dorothy Jordan. Highlights of the exhibition include a little known version of Joshua Reynolds’ portrait of Sarah Siddons as the “tragic muse”, William Hogarth’s The Beggar’s Opera and Thomas Gainsborough’s portraits of Giovanna Bacelli and Elizabeth Linley. The exhibition reveals the key role these women played in the celebrity culture found in London (and elsewhere) during the period. As a counterpoint, an accompanying exhibition displays photographs and paintings of some of today’s actresses. Runs until 8th January (an admission charge applies). For more information on the exhibition or the programme of accompanying events, see www.npg.org.uk.
• Cemetery in Hackney and Kensal Green, a park in Hounslow and a Piccadilly property formerly used as the Naval and Military Club are among the “priority sites” listed on English Heritage’s annual Heritage At Risk Register. Released earlier this week, the register’s 10 London”risk priority sites” include London’s first metropolitan cemetery – Kensal Green (All Souls) – which dates from 1833, Gunnersbury Park in West London – featuring a large country home known as Gunnersbury Park House, it was built in 1801-28 and later remodelled, and a mansion at 94 Piccadilly – built in 1756-60 for Lord Egremont, it was later used at the Military and Naval Club and is now for sale. Others on the list include Abney Park Cemetery in Hackney – laid out in 1840, it is described as London’s most important Nonconformist cemetery, a medieval manor farm barn in Harmondsworth in London’s outer west, Tide Mill in Newham, East London, and the entire Whitechapel High Street and Stepney Green conservation areas. For more information, see www.english-heritage.org.uk/caring/heritage-at-risk/.

The Lives of Others: Factual Filmmaking and Working with Characters
Talk Monday 30 November 2015, 7:00 PM
A panel of acclaimed documentary filmmakers come together for an evening dedicated to the art of character-driven documentary and working with contributors. Looking in detail at scenes from their recent works and discussing the various stages of building remarkable stories, our speakers will shed light on the delicate process of communicating the experiences of others.
From finding an extraordinary character and establishing a relationship of trust, to interview methods and collaboration, these filmmakers will discuss their approaches to exploring the lives of others. They will also address the ethical dilemmas that arise when working closely with a character, including issues relating to consent, authorship, and narrative.
The panel:
Beadie Finzi (moderator) is one of the founding directors of BRITDOC, a non profit film foundation supported by Channel 4 Television, Ford Foundation and Bertha Foundation as well as a number of US and European foundations. Having worked in documentary for the past 20 years, Beadie is in heaven in her role at BRITDOC – whose mission is to befriend independent filmmakers, fund great films (120 to date), broker new partnerships, build new business models, share knowledge and develop audiences globally.
Brian Hill (The Confessions of Thomas Quick, Feltham Sings, The Not Dead) is the managing director of Century Films and also directs drama and documentary. His most recent documentary, The Confessions of Thomas Quick, premiered at Sheffield Doc/Fest 2015.
David Sington (The Fear of Thirteen, In The Shadow of the Moon) is a self-taught filmmaker. He worked initially as a radio producer for BBC World Service, and as a documentary filmmaker for BBC TV. In 2007 David’s feature documentary on the Apollo astronauts “In the Shadow of the Moon” was awarded the “World Cinema Audience Award: Documentary” at the Sundance Film Festival. His most recent film The Fear of Thirteen focuses on death row prisoner Nicholas Yarris and premieres at the 2015 BFI London Film Festival.
Edward Lovelace along with co-director James Hall, operates under the creative moniker D.A.R.Y.L. Their critically acclaimed, award-winning third feature film The Possibilities Are Endless (SXSW, London Film Festival, Sydney Film Festival) traced the mental and physical journey of singer/songwriter Edwyn Collins following a life-changing stroke. The film was awarded 5 stars by the Guardian, won Best Film at Solo Positivo Film Festival and was named Film of the Year 2014 by indie bible MOJO.

The Great Flag Debate
The long and often bitter debate over the new Canadian flag began in the House of Commons on 15 June 1964. It ended by closure on 15 December 1964. Feelings ran high among many English Canadians. Opposition leader John Diefenbaker demanded that the flag honour Canada’s “founding races” and feature the Union Jack. Prime Minister Lester B.

Borrowing their name from the American revolutionary secret society known as the Sons of Liberty, the group included some of the most important members of the party, including Louis-Joseph Papineau and Edmund Bailey O’Callaghan. In Montréal, the group was opposed by the English-speaking paramilitary group the Doric Club, which led to a violent confrontation on 6 November 1837. The group disbanded shortly afterwards and many of its members went on to participate in the Canadian Rebellion.

Press Release: North Dakota Hosted Large African Delegation During 10th Annual Big Iron International Visitors Program
October 1, 2016 by Lindsey Warner
North Dakota hosted over 120 international visitors from more than 10 countries as part of the Big Iron International Visitors Program, the portion of the Big Iron Farm Show connecting international equipment buyers with North Dakota businesses. The International Visitors Program (IVP) ran Sept. 13-15 and was organized by the North Dakota Trade Office (NDTO) with the cooperation of the U.S. Commercial Service. Since 2007, the NDTO's Big Iron IVP has brought over 950 international guests to North Dakota.
"Farmers around the world are in need of equipment that will produce food faster and more efficiently in order to feed an ever-expanding population," said Lt. Gov. Drew Wrigley, chairman of the NDTO Board of Directors. "The Big Iron International Visitors Program, which has been going strong for 10 years now, matches international visitors in need of high quality agricultural products and services with our innovative North Dakota manufacturers, producers and suppliers."
Delegations from countries including Angola, Ethiopia, Australia, Belarus, Guatemala, Russia and Ukraine gathered to attend company presentations, equipment demonstrations, farm and ranch tours, and educational events. On average, representatives from 30 North Dakota companies participate every year to meet and establish business relationships with potential buyers through the Big Iron IVP. Company participants may include agricultural equipment manufacturers, agriculture service providers, commodity storage and processing equipment manufacturers, educational institutions, and research specialists.
This year's IVP hosted its largest delegation yet from Africa. A group numbering more than 80 traveled from Angola, Benin, Ethiopia, Liberia and Nigeria to meet with North Dakota companies and establish business ties. Delegates from Angola comprised the largest share of the group, with about 55 agribusiness leaders, association representatives and government personnel having traveled to Fargo from the southern African country.
Angola's government has prioritized agricultural development in recent years, after sinking oil prices contributed to the petroleum rich country's economic downturn. Agriculture is the population's primary livelihood, with the vast majority of the Angolan workforce farming the country's fertile soils on small plots of land. However, domestic production does not meet demand and more than half of Angola's food is imported. The Angolan government is leading efforts to boost food production by supporting numerous large agricultural projects and companies. The need for productive agricultural practices and equipment led to the sizeable delegation participating in the Big Iron IVP this year after recruitment by the new U.S. Commercial Service office in capital city Luanda.
In 2015, North Dakota companies exported 1,436 unique products to 146 different countries, totaling $3.89 billion of merchandise. As of June, North Dakota exports have increased in several markets in 2016. Export increases have occurred in Australia, Colombia, South Korea, Germany, China, Russia, Ethiopia, Argentina and Ukraine among other countries. North Dakota's outreach to sub-Saharan African countries is visible with sales to Nigeria, South Africa and Ethiopia making it onto the 'Top 25' list of North Dakota export markets.
NDTO is a member-based, public-private organization dedicated to expanding North Dakota's exports through advocacy, education and expertise. All trade missions and reverse trade missions are designed to assist North Dakota companies in finding potential partners and making overseas sales; these initiatives are open to the public.

SEAN HUGHES
In 1987, Sean started doing stand-up comedy in London clubs. He became the youngest ever winner of the prestigious Perrier Award for ‘A One Night Stand With Sean Hughes’ at the Edinburgh Festival in 1990. The show also played to crowds in London and throughout the UK, Los Angeles, Montreal, Toronto and toured Australia for the Melbourne Comedy Festival in 1991. Along with Owen O’Neil he was awarded a Fringe First when he returned to Edinburgh in 1999 with the short plays, ‘Dehydrated’ and ‘Travellin’ Light’. Sean then launched his successful TV career with the critically acclaimed 7 part sitcom ‘Sean’s Show’ for Channel 4, which Sean both wrote and starred in and hot on the footsteps of the first, a second series followed shortly after. As well as his comic writing, Sean has written two collections of prose and poetry and the first, ‘Sean’s Book’sold over 40,000 copies. Sean has also written two critically acclaimed novels ‘The Detainees’ and ‘It’s What He Would Have Wanted’.
‘hugely impressive and intelligent’ (Time Out);
‘high calibre comedy as it should be’ (The Standard);
‘one of the best stand-ups of his generation’ (Daily Telegraph).
His no-holds-barred, quick-fire wit shapes each performance into a one-off, unique experience for his audience.
Along with ‘Sean’s Show’, Sean is best-known to TV audiences for his long-running stint as team captain on the daddy of all panel shows ‘Never Mind The Buzzcocks’ and also acclaimed drama The Last Detective … not forgetting starring as Eileen Grimshaw’s love interest, Pat, in Coronation Street.
Despite a nine-year break from performing stand-up, he was recently voted No. 40 in Channel 4’s ‘World’s 100 Greatest Comedians’ poll.

Water conservation for power generation
World Coal, Monday, 26 March 2018 10:14
Water is an essential resource for human life. It is also a key component of energy production.
For example, thermoelectric power generation accounts for more than 40% of freshwater withdrawals and more than 3% of freshwater consumption. That adds up to billions of gallons of water per day. As populations grow and economic development continues to expand, so too will our energy demand and water consumption.
In a recent roundtable discussion with government and industry leaders, US Department of Energy (DOE) Secretary Rick Perry underscored the challenges that drive innovation, and water was chief among the critical issues. DOE is spurring innovation in critical water issues, and the Office of Fossil Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) is a central agent in that endeavor.
Increasing efficiency and reducing emissions
NETL’s DryFining™ technology, developed in partnership with Great River Energy (GRE), uses a power plant’s waste heat and a special drying process to remove moisture and impurities from certain kinds of coal, making its use cleaner and more efficient. By installing this technology, GRE’s Coal Creek Station in North Dakota reduced its sulfur dioxide and mercury emissions by 40%, nitrogen oxide by 20% and carbon dioxide by 4%. They found that removing moisture from the coal decreased the volume of exhaust gas by 17% produced, while also improving the efficiency of fans, motors and emissions control equipment.
Recovering water vapour from power plants
Water evaporating from cooling towers is a common sight associated with power plants. ClearSky, a commercial success that NETL developed in partnership with SPX, recovers that water. A power plant’s cooling towers transfer heat from the power plant to the environment, similar to how household air conditioners cool homes. Removing the heat allows the steam from the power plant’s turbines to condense from a gas into a liquid. The ClearSky moisture capture technology recovers an average of 18% of the water evaporated from a cooling tower, offering an economical and environmentally friendly solution for reducing the amount of water used by fossil fuel-fired power plants.
Innovative water treatment technologies
One project with Carnegie Mellon University evaluates the potential for low temperature heat to treat water through a process called ‘forward osmosis’. The technology is expected to help meet rising water treatment needs at power plants by reducing fresh water intake, decreasing operational costs, and reducing discharge of power plant wastewaters. In another collaboration, the company’s partners at the University of Pittsburgh recently completed a project to treat wastewater containing large amounts of salt, using a special separation material. The project promotes the recycling and reuse of wastewater, which can offset fresh water consumption at power plants by reducing the energy footprint and enhancing the effectiveness of treatment systems.
Recovering waste heat and waste water
In partnership with NETL, the Gas Technology Instituteand Media & Process Technology Inc. developed the Transport Membrane Condenser (TMC) that condenses water and recovers heat from a plant’s gas emissions. The TMC has the potential to reduce water consumption, increase plant efficiency and potentially lower costs.
Analytics for accurate decision-making
NETL’s analysis experts, with collaborators at Sandia National Laboratories and Carnegie Mellon University, are developing data and models to help better understand the link between thermoelectric power generation and water. These efforts are helping to guide technology research and development. Other analyses underway include predicting the output of thermoelectric plants, including their water resource requirements under various weather conditions, time scales and regional or plant-specific scenarios.

ICT Seminar 2023 Review: Energy, Thermals, and Assistive Technology
03/16/2023 | Pete Starkey, I-Connect007
Widely believed to be the traditional Centre of England, Meriden was a popular venue for a gathering of the UK printed circuit community this month. They braved the forecast of heavy snow for the Institute of Circuit Technology’s annual general meeting to learn about current developments and challenges in a thought-provoking technical seminar and to network with industry peers and contemporaries. Thankfully, the forecasted heavy snowfall did not reach Meriden until after the event; we only had a few flurries, although the weather caused considerable disruption elsewhere in the country.

US Withdraws from TPP Deal
Tuesday, 24 January 2017 - 17:15 WIB
President Donald Trump is signing a memorandum to leave the proposed Pacific Rim trade pact known as the Trans-Pacific Partnership
Washington DC, 25 Rabi’ul Akhir 1438/24 Januari 2017 (MINA) – US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order formally withdrawing the US from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal, following through on a promise from his presidential campaign, Al Jazeera reported.
“We’ve been talking about this for a long time,” Trump said as he signed the executive order in an Oval Office ceremony on Monday, calling the move a “great thing for the American worker”.
In the same ceremony, Trump signed an order imposing a federal hiring freeze, with the exception of the military
Additionally, Trump signed a directive banning US NGOs that perform abortions abroad from receiving federal funding.
The TPP accord was negotiated by former President Barack Obama’s administration but never approved by US Congress.
Signed by 12 countries in 2015, the TPP trade agreement had yet to go into effect and the US’ withdrawal is likely to sound its death knell.
It had been the main economic pillar of the Obama administration’s “pivot” to the Asia-Pacific region to counter China.
Its signatories are Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the US and Brunei. They together represent 40 percent of the world economy.
Trump called it a “potential disaster” during his campaign.
Raised concerns in Asia-Pacific
Trump has raised concern in Japan and elsewhere in the Asia-Pacific region with his opposition to the TPP and his campaign demands for US allies to pay more for their security.
The new president also met a dozen manufacturers in the US at the White House on Monday, pledging to slash regulations and cut corporate taxes, but warning them he would take action on trade deals he felt were unfair.
Trump, who took office on Friday, has promised to bring manufacturing plants back to the US, an issue he said helped him win the November 8 election.
He has not hesitated to call out by name companies that he thinks should bring outsourced production back home.(T/RE1/RS05)

Op-Ed: Congressional Research Service is Wrong About U.S. Dredging
File image courtesy USACE
Published Oct 10, 2019 5:20 PM by William P. Doyle
The leaders of the U.S. House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee (T&I) and T&I’s Subcommittee on Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation have sent a letter to the Library of Congress refuting a recent Congressional Research Service (CRS) report on the American dredging industry as “filled with misleading, slanted and false information.” The bipartisan group of congressional leaders also condemned another recent CRS report on the Jones Act as “one-sided” and “misleading” leaving Congress to “believe the CRS has abandoned its normal practice of straight-forward, fact-based reporting.”
On May 17, 2019 the CRS issued a report titled Shipping Under the Jones Act: Legislative and Regulatory Background. Then on June 14, 2019, the CRS issued another report titled Harbor Dredging: Issues and Historical Funding. Both reports were overwhelmingly panned as biased and misleading. The Dredging Contractors of America lodged a complaint with the House T&I Committee leadership disputing the accuracy and efforts put into the “fatally flawed CRS reports.”
The danger of careless reports by the CRS is evident in the fact that opinion writers in publications such as the Houston Chronicle cite CRS reports in formulating the basis of their opinions. In addition, CRS reports play a critical role in educating Members of Congress and their staffs. To this point, in a September (2019) opinion writer Chris Tomlinson penned a blog piece claiming U.S. dredgers stifle attempts to mitigate against coastal storms like Hurricane Harvey; that U.S. companies cannot handle port dredging jobs, and that the entire U.S. dredging fleet is old with a combined total of 11 ships between four companies. He did not provide any accurate data to back up the claims and relied solely on unnamed sources and the fatally flawed Harbor Dredging Report issued by the CRS. When Mr. Tomlinson was questioned about the accuracy of his piece, he dismissively stated “take it up with the Congressional Research Service."
House T&I Chairman Peter DeFazio and Ranking Member Sam Graves, as well as Coast Guard & Maritime Transportation Subcommittee Chairman Sean Patrick Maloney and Ranking Member Bob Gibbs, sent a letter on October 8, 2019 to The Honorable Carla Hayden, Ph.D., of the Library of Congress asking her to quickly address the bias in these reports. They also requested that recent reports on dredging and U.S. shipping be “immediately removed from circulation and subject to a more searching review.”
Citizens and private sector entities are not afforded the opportunity to seek redress directly from the CRS or its parent agency the Library of Congress. Instead, private citizens must seek redress through Members of Congress.
“We are very pleased that bipartisan leaders of Congress have taken appropriate steps to correct flawed reports issued by the CRS,” said William P. Doyle, Chief Executive Officer of Dredging Contractors of America. “The hallmark of CRS reports is that they should be unbiased, fact-based reports that leave the policy-making decisions to the policymakers.”
In addressing Mr. Tomlinson’s recent opinion piece, the Dredging Contractors of America points out the following:
- The CRS report on dredging is fatally flawed. Congress has recognized this and is taking appropriate action. The U.S.-flag dredging fleet totals more than 400 dredges, and is amid a billion-dollar-plus capital construction shipbuilding program. Recently, the private sector U.S.-flagged hopper dredging fleet capacity increased by 34% with the addition of two large hopper dredges by Great Lakes Dredge and Dock and Weeks Marine, and continues to spend billions of dollars recapitalizing its operations. This year, Callan Marine based in Galveston, Texas will deliver a massive cutter suction dredge, RLB Contracting built a brand new dredge in Port Lavaca, Weeks Marine delivered a large cutter suction dredge built in Louisiana, and The Dutra Group launched a huge hydraulic scow in Corn Island, Indiana.
- The U.S. dredging industry is highly competitive with more than 50 different companies awarded federal dredging work annually, amidst a pool of 80 competitive bidders.
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers applauded the dredging industry’s swift action post Hurricane Harvey for getting 28 Texas projects back to their authorized depths and fully functional.
Finally, U.S dredging companies have completed or are on schedule for all deepening, widening, and maintenance dredging projects, including New York, Tampa (completed one year ahead of schedule), Boston and Corpus Christi.
The Honorable William P. Doyle is the CEO and executive director of the Dredging Contractors of America. He previously served two terms as a commissioner on the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission, where he made sure that the Jones Act was protected and that foreign ocean carriers did not exert their collective market power over U.S. service providers.

25 times LGBTQ+ artists made music history
Using books, interviews, and primary news sources, Stacker has compiled a list of 25 times LGBTQ+ artists made music history.

Throughout history, there have been artists that refuse to reduce themselves to monolithic stereotypes and conform to discriminatory musical standards and expectations. Instead, individuals like Ma Rainey, often called the "Mother of the Blues," overtly explored themes of identity and lesbian self-affirmation. Angela Y. Davis called Rainey's "Prove It on Me," a precursor to the lesbian cultural movement of the 1970s.
Generations of LGBTQ+ artists have followed suit, challenging the industry to create more variable genres with avant-garde style, elliptical lyrics, and formative vision. Some of these artists—Wendy Carlos, MikeQ, David Bowie, and Patrick Haggerty—have made music history all while contributing to cultural movements, LGBTQ+ rights, and freedom of self-expression that have extended beyond the stage.
To acknowledge and recognize these achievements, Stacker examined books, interviews, and primary news sources and compiled a list of 25 times LGBTQ+ artists made music history. Some of the artists on this list may be familiar, but others might be lesser-known visionaries and pioneers in the music industry. Let's celebrate their resilience and influence that have paved, or are currently paving, the way for generations of artists.

Biography (cliquez ici pour la version française)
Olivier Greif was born in Paris on January 3rd, 1950. His father had studied piano in Poland before moving to France and becoming a doctor. A precocious child, Olivier discovered music at age three in a kindergarten. Admitted to the Paris National Conservatory at age ten, he studied piano with Lucette Descaves and composition with Tony Aubin. He worked with Luciano Berio in New York City and Santa Fe. From 1961 to 1981, he composed a first series of works. His style was quite personal, unaffected by current trends. Then he stopped composing for ten years or so, as he explored a “spiritual path” with a New York-based Indian master. From 1991 on, he wrote a new series of dark and intense pieces, marked by themes he had always been familiar with: the war, his father’s stay in Auschwitz, the loss of most of his family in the death camps. He put Paul Celan’s poems to music. Having been badly ill twice, he died at home on May 13th, 2000.
Born in Paris on January 3rd.
His parents came from Poland. His father studied piano in the Lwów conservatory (today Lviv, in Ukraine), before emigrating to France with a letter of recommendation of Eduard Steuermann to further his studies with Afred Cortot. He changed his mind and became a doctor (neurologist and psychiatrist) in Paris. During the war, he joined the French Résistance and was deported to Auschwitz, where he spent a year.
Olivier began to study the piano at age three in a musical kindergarten. When he was six or seven, his teacher, Mme Jamet, introduced him as a promising student to Lucette Descaves, who taught in the Paris Conservatory (Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris, or CNSM). He started as a private pupil, attending monthly lessons with Mme Descaves. Mme Jamet was still his main teacher.
Aged nine, he plays his first composition, Nausicaa, during a concert of Lucette Descaves’s private pupils. He passes an exam and enters CNSM. He studies piano with Lucette Descaves (and her assistant, Mme Clavius Marius) and solfeggio with Marcel Bitsch. Later, he will study chamber music with Jean Hubeau, composition with Tony Aubin, sight-reading with Geneviève Joy, orchestration with Marius Constant, orchestra directing with Robert Blot.
Opus 1: Cinq chansons enfantines, for voice and piano, poems by himself. First performed by Jacques Loiseleur des Longchamps and Grigori Abramian in May, 2001 in Paris. This singer can be seen and heard singing these songs on YouTube.
Piano Sonata n°1. Piano Sonata n°2. Performed in the CNSM by himself.
Last year in the class of Mme Descaves. He gets a second prize in piano.
Suite for string quartet (quartet n°1), written for the composition class. Performed in the CNSM by Quatuor de l’ORTF.
Sonata for violin and piano n°1.
Sonata for violin and piano n°2, for which he receives the composition prize in the CNSM. He plays it with Devy Erlih in the former Conservatoire and in Salle Gaveau, then with Jacques Israelievitch in the CNSM. The sonata is published by Leduc. He also receives the Chamber Music prize. He becomes a friend of Nadia Boulanger.
He lives in London, in the home of one of his mother”s friends, to learn English.
He studies composition in New York City with Luciano Berio, who teaches in Juilliard School. He meets Andy Warhol and Mick Jagger, becomes friends with Salvador Dali. An article in French about his relationship with Luciano Berio: Olivier Greif et Luciano Berio, une relation humaine et artistique, by Brigitte François-Sappey and Patricia Aubertin.
Piano Sonatas n°5 to 9. He improvises at length in Juilliard School, by himself and with several instruments and the actress Isabelle Colin-Dufresne (alias Ultra-Violet, a friend of Salvador Dali and Andy Warhol), to celebrate the clarinet prize of his friend William Powell. A recording of this performance, called “In Paradisum” has been made.
William Powell played Olivier’s “Ich Ruf zu Dir” in 2006 in Los Angeles. He displays a full page about Olivier in his Web site: http://www.williamepowell.com/greif.html
He becomes Berio’s assistant in the Santa Fe Opera for the creation of a work gathering several of Berio’s existing pieces, called Opera (the plural of opus). He composes some links between the pieces himself.
He becomes interested in the composers of the West Coast, like Terry Riley and La Monte Young. He spends the summer vacations in San Francisco in the home of Gerta Wingerd, born Alper. A cousin in law of the Greif family, she grew up in Czernowitz (then in Rumania, today in Ukraine). She was close to the poet Paul Celan, her brother’s classmate.
He comes back to Paris. He returns to the Conservatoire to study orchestration and orchestra direction. He composes many short pieces for piano, as well as twenty Études dedicated to Katya Labèque. The Labèque sisters were his classmates in the Conservatoire, as well as Brigitte Engerer, Georges Pludermacher, Pascal Rogé, etc.

When Olivier began to work on it, around 1965, he called it “Battle Sonata.” He said he thought about Bruckner, Mahler and the American West Coast composers. Marc Cholodenko reproduced the first page of the fourth movement (Toccata) as an incipit for his novel “Les États du Désert,” which received one of the main literary prizes in 1976.
Siao Ping Fan, one of his classmates, commissioned a work for the Ravel Festival in Monfort l’Amaury. He composed a “Tombeau de Ravel,” a piano piece for four hands, which he created with Henri Barda. “The virtuosity of the young Olivier is truly transcendant,” wrote Bernard Gavoty, the best-known critic for classical music at the time.
His mother has surgery for colon cancer. A first cancer had been removed in 1956. As liver metastasis is found some time later.
Olivier Greif begins a spiritual quest with an Indian master living in New York, Sri Chinmoy. In 1978, his master gives him a new first name: Haridas, which means “God’s servant”. During the next twenty years, Olivier-Haridas will compose two kinds of works: “classical” compositions (with a gap from 1983 to 1991); arrangements of songs (text and music) by Sri Chinmoy for a choir of disciples. Due to the uncertain status of these works’ copyright, they are not included in the catalog posted on this site.

Performed in the Centre Pompidou, with the help of IRCAM and Festival d’Automne, by Georges Pludermacher (piano), Sylvio Gualda (drums) and singers and musicians of the Paris Opera.
While the music is as tense and moving as usual, the book is bungled. It doesn’t really evoke a Japanese Nô, even if four lines of a real Nô are quoted at the end. Olivier Messiaen, who knew and appreciated Olivier Greif, and Pierre Boulez, who didn’t know him, attended together. Olivier’s opera didn’t seem to convince them. The critics were ferocious. Olivier, disappointed and bitter, stopped composing—except the arrangements of Sri Chinmoy melodies for the disciples’ chorus and small piano pieces on the names of his friends. Leduc was ready to publish Nô, but Olivier never returned the proofs he was supposed to edit.

Why Smoking Kills - EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS!
The top 10 worst ingredients in cigarettes were identified by the United States Department of Health and Human Services.
The list includes 599 additives and since cigarette burning alters the chemical compositions, up to 4 thousand are created when cigarette is burned, impacting not only on you,
but everyone around you.
Among the most hazardous ingredients in cigarettes are the following:
1. Nicotine – one of the most important ingredients in cigarettes
Nicotine is an addictive psychoactive alkaloid. It is the primary compound in a cigarette. Since it is a stimulant, it increases blood pressure and constricts veins and arteries. It prompts the body to release cholesterol and fat into the bloodstream, and may lead to the development of blood clots.
2. Benzene
This is a carcinogen substance. It increases the possibility of developing leukemia In addition, it damages the central nervous system and can lead to a variety of health problems. Among them are paralysis, convulsions, tremors, dizziness, coma, sleepiness, tightness in the chest, anemia and bone marrow damage.
3. Formaldehyde
Formaldehyde is colorless odorless and taste-less. This gas is used to preserve dead bodies. When a cigarette is burned, formaldehyde is synthesized. It is responsible for eye, nose, and throat irritations. It can also cause nausea, wheezing, skin irritations and nasal cancer.
4. Arsenic
This is one of the toxic chemicals commonly used in rat poisons. Pesticides that are commonly used on tobacco farms leech arsenic into the plants. Potential health effects include cancer of the kidneys, liver, bladder, skin and lungs.
5. Cadmium
Cadmium is a poisonous heavy metal which is present in cigarette smoke. People who smoke have twice the levels of cadmium in their bodies as compared to non-smokers. Health risks include nausea, vomiting, renal failure, shock, convulsions, muscle cramps and sensory disruptions.
6. Ammonia
Ammonia is a toxic ingredient found in fertilizers and cleaning products. It is incorporated into cigarettes in order to enhance the effects of nicotine. Its potential effects on health include damage to the lungs as well as death.
7. Hydrogen cyanide
Which is a toxic compound used during the manufacture of paper, plastic, and textiles. This poisonous chemical was used by the Nazi soldiers in the deadly gas chambers during World War II. Potential health risks include headaches, weakness, dizziness, seizures, irregular heartbeats, fainting, vomiting and death.
8. Carbon monoxide
Carbon monoxide is a lethal compound which is present in car exhaust. Very high concentrations are contained in cigarettes. Among its health hazards are chest pain, dizziness, confusion, vomiting, nausea, disorientation, loss of consciousness and death.
9. TSNA
This is a compound composed of four carcinogenic chemicals. Its hazards to health include cancer of the mouth, pancreas, lungs, esophagus and liver.
10. Polonium and lead
These 2 ingredients are among the radioactive chemicals in cigarette smoke. These toxic metals stick to cigarette tar and cause radioactive hot-spots to develop in the lungs. Ultimately, it can cause lung cancer.
THESE EXTREMELY HARMFUL INGREDIENTS ARE JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG. NUMEROUS OTHER TOXINS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED. THEY INCLUDE CHEMICALS PRESENT IN ROLLED CIGARETTES, AS WELL AS THOSE WHICH ARE SYNTHESIZED THROUGH THE BURNING PROCESS.
PLEASE SHARE AND PROMOTE AWARENESS.

Dakota Missions on the Frontier
Dakota Missions on the Frontier (HM27O0)
Location: Minneapolis, MN 55420 Hennepin County

In the 1830s and 1840s Christian Missionaries came into Indian Country, which included Bloomington, with the purpose of converting Dakota Indians to Christian beliefs and white person's ways. This included farming, owning property, receiving a formal education and establishing a money-based economy.
Missions established to serve the Dakota were located in proximity to rivers or lakes by permanent Native American sites. The success of the missionaries in converting Dakota Indians to Christianity was modest until the 1862 U.S.-Dakota war confirmed the authority of the United States government over the land and lives of Indian people, including the prohibition of practicing Native American religions until the 1970s. Indian people today practice a variety of spiritual beliefs and religions.
Dakota Missions of the American Board of Commissioners of Foreign Missions (ABCFM) in Minnesota
Lake Calhoun and Laker Harriet Missions (Minneapolis)
Samuel and Gideon Pond taught Euro-American farming to Chief Cloud Man's village. They also devised a Dakota alphabet and began translating into a written Dakota language so they could teach the Indians how to read the Bible. Under continual threats of attack from the Ojibwe (Anishinabe), Cloud Man moved his village to the Minnesota River Valley
The Lac qui Parle Mission (near Montevideo)
Dr. Thomas S. Williamson began this mission to the Dakota people at the invitation of Joseph Renville, a metis trader and influential leader among the Wahpeton and Sisseton Dakota people. Dr. Williamson was aided by Stephen R. Riggs, Gideon and Samuel Pond, Alexander Huggins, Moses Adams and others. They began translating the Bible into the Dakota language in 1835, a project that took more than 40 years to complete. In 1854 some of the buildings burned down, and the missionaries decided to close the mission.
The Oak Grove Mission (Bloomington)
Gideon and Samuel Pond established this mission near Cloud Man's village in the Minnesota River Valley. After the 1851 Treaty of Mendota, most of the Dakota were removed from the area. Two years later Gideon dissolved the mission and in 1855 founded Oak Grove Presbyterian Church with the help of newly arrived white settlers.
The Prairieville Mission (Shakopee)
At the invitation of Chief Shakpe, Samuel Pond moved to Shakpe's village, 10 miles up the Minnesota River, where he began a mission and school. With the removal of the Dakota in 1853 to the Lower Sioux Agency, Samuel closed the mission and founded First Presbyterian Church of Shakopee with the help of newly arrived white settlers.
The Traverse des Sioux Mission (near St. Peter)
Stephen R. Riggs began this mission station aided by Alexander Huggins and Robert Hopkins. It was here that Stephen R. Riggs and Dr. Williamson were interpreters at the Treaty of Traverse des Sioux in 1851. In this treaty, the Sisseton and Wahpeton Dakota gave up their land in southern and western Minnesota. They were removed in 1853 to a narrow strip of land around the Upper Sioux Agency. The mission was closed in 1853.
The Kaposia Mission (South St. Paul)
Dr. Williamson accepted an invitation from Chief Little Crow to build a mission at his village on the Mississippi River near present-day South St. Paul, where he was joined by his sister Jane. In 1852 the mission was closed due to the removal of the Indians to a strip of land along the Minnesota River in the area of the Lower Sioux Agency.
The Red Wing Mission (Red Wing)
This mission to Chief Wacouta's village, located at Barn Bluff, was begun in 1848 by John F. Aiton, assisted by Joseph W. Hancock. In 1853 Chief Wacouta's band was moved to the area around the Lower Sioux Agency and the mission was closed.
The Pajutazee Mission (near Granite Falls)
In 1852 Dr. Williamson and his sister Jane rejoined some of the Sisseton and Wahpeton Dakota from the Lac qui Parle area to form the Pajutazee (Dakota name meaning Yellow Medicine) Mission near the Upper Sioux Aency. He was forced to leave there at the outbreak of the Dakota War in 1862. Many of his converts there were leading members of the farmer-Indian faction.
The Hazelwood Mission (near Granite Falls)
Founded by Stephen R. Riggs, this mission was located near the Upper Sioux Agency. The mission included a school and numerous Christian Dakota farming families who broke with the communal tribal structures and formed a self-governing organization called the Hazelwood Republic.
The Zoar Mission (near Morton)
John P. Williamson, son of Dr. Thomas S. Williamson, founded this mission, which was located near the Lower Sioux Agency. Most of its members had been affiliated with the mission at Kaposia. The mission was temporarily closed at the outbreak of the U.S. Dakota War of 1862 and resumed operation in November 1862. Shortly thereafter, its members were marched under armed guards to the Fort Snelling Dakota Internment Camp.

Listen to Beyoncé’s “Already” Featuring Ghana’s Shatta Wale
in Africa & World
It’s been barely 24 hours since Beyoncé released her eagerly anticipated new album titled, The Lion King: The Gift and some Ghanaians can’t get enough of track 19 which features dancehall artiste Shatta Wale.
Asides Shatta, the song also features Major Lazer, an American electronic dance music trio, which includes record producer Diplo, and DJs Walshy Fire and Ape Drums.
Beyoncé curated and produced the supplementary album for the remake of iconic The Lion King movie.
The album, out today, features contributions from a star cast of collaborators, including JAY-Z, Blue Ivy Carter, Kendrick Lamar, Childish Gambino, Pharrell, Tierra Whack, 070 Shake, Major Lazer, and others. Beyoncé has referred to the new record as a “love letter to Africa” and features multiple African artists and producers. Listen below.
DJ Khaled is listed as a producer on “MOOD 4 EVA,” the collaboration between Beyoncé, JAY-Z, and Childish Gambino. Listen to an extended version on Tidal below.
Syd is credited as a co-producer on “OTHERSIDE,” and Diplo co-produced “ALREADY.” “NILE,” the collaboration between Kendrick and Beyoncé, features production from Sounwave—Kendrick’s frequent collaborator who worked on DAMN. and Black Panther.
JAY-Z is also given a co-writer credit on the Blue Ivy-featuring song “BROWN SKIN GIRL.”
The album is full of dialogue from the film as interludes, including several prominent guest spots from James Earl Jones (whose voice opens the album).
Bey (who voices Nala in the remake) released lead single “Spirit” ahead of the new LP earlier this month.
She also shared a colourful music video for the track. The Lion King is in theatres this weekend and stars Beyoncé, Donald Glover, Seth Rogen, Eric André, John Oliver, and others.

In addition to supporting the continued growth of its existing platforms, Nova Ventures has substantial committed capital at its disposal and is seeking attractive instrumentation businesses that could form the nucleus of a fifth strategic platform.
Nova Analytics Corporation was formed in March 2003, was a world leader in the multi-billion-dollar electrochemistry and water quality instrumentation market. The Company manufactured premium quality meters, sensors, analyzers, and related consumables used in industry, research institutions, and governments to analyze and control the quality and characteristics of water and wastewater, food & beverage, pharmaceutical and medical products, among others.
As of January 2010, Nova Analytics owned nine operating companies with more than 750 employees in eight different countries worldwide. All Nova Analytics’ brands were recognized for superior quality and industry leading products with applications ranging from electrochemistry, optical measurement, temperature measurement, respirometry, and viscometry.
The platform began with Nova Analytics’s acquisition of Corning’s electrochemistry product line, re-branded as the ‘Pinnacle’ line upon acquisition in 2003. Following the Corning product line acquisition, In the same year, Nova Analytics further grew by acquiring two leaders in the premium analytical instrumentation: WTW Wissenschaftliche-Technische Werkstätten GmbH (WTW), Germany’s leading manufacturer of laboratory and water & wastewater instrumentation; and Schott Geräte GmbH (initially rebranded ‘Schott Instruments’ then ultimately ‘SI Analytics’), Germany’s premier manufacturer of electrochemistry instrumentation.
With three well-respected brands anchoring Nova Analytics’ portfolio, 2004 marked a year of integration and operational improvements. In February 2005, Nova Analytics bought Secomam SA a spectrophotometer business in France. Nova Analytics remained active in 2006 by acquiring two highly reputable German businesses: Sensortechnik Meinsberg GmbH (STM), an electrochemistry business developing electrodes; and Ebro Electronics GmbH & Co. KG, a supplier of temperature meters, electrodes and accessories for the food, clinical, pharmaceutical, and industrial markets. In 2007, Nova Analytics acquired UK-based Bellingham + Stanley Ltd. (B+S), and US-based Global Water Instrumentation, Inc. (GWI). B+S manufactures a range of digital refractometers and polarimeters and GWI supplies instrumentation for measuring ground and surface-water parameters such as quality, level, and flow.
Nova Analytics’ final acquisition occurred in December of 2009, when it purchased Norway-based Aanderaa Data Instruments AS (Aanderaa), a provider of sensors, instruments, and systems for measuring and monitoring in the most demanding environments.
On February 17, 2010 Nova Analytics was sold to ITT Corporation (NYSE: ITT), an engineering and manufacturing company engaged in water and fluids management, global defense, and security and motion and flow control. After Nova Analytics was acquired by ITT Corporation, the business was spun out into what is today known as Xylem, Inc., a leading global water technology company committed to developing innovative technology solutions to the world’s water challenges.
Nova Technologies Corporation, formed in June of 2006, was a leading provider of turnkey products and services designed to increase the efficiency in water and wastewater transportation systems. With over 325 employees, Nova Technologies was a leading developer and supplier of technology-based products for the water, wastewater, and hydroelectric markets.
Nova Technologies operated three independent businesses: ADS Environmental Services, Accusonic Technologies and Hydra-Stop. The Nova Technologies brands developed, manufactured, and integrated specialized instrumentation and proprietary software solutions enabling municipalities, industry, and government agencies to measure and analyze the capacity, quality, and integrity of water and wastewater systems infrastructure.
Nova Technologies’ foundation business, ADS Environmental Services, completed two horizontal acquisitions in 2006, which strengthened and anchored the platform. The Company first acquired Severn Trent Pipeline Services allowing Nova Technologies to significantly grow its footprint in the water services market, penetrate the pipeline maintenance market through its Hydra-Stop brand and re-enter the Closed Circuit Television Video (CCTV) market. The acquisition of DWC Technologies, which was tucked under ADS Environmental Services, strengthened the Company’s geographical footprint in the Southeastern U.S. and allowed Nova Technologies to enter the utility location/mapping industry.
Simultaneously, Nova Technologies supplemented its manufactured products with a comprehensive suite of software solutions, field services, and data reporting services for the municipal water and wastewater infrastructure industries. By 2008, Nova Technologies and its associated brands had completed over 5,000 flow measurement projects and provided equipment and services to customers in more than 40 countries.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea launched a short-range ballistic missile toward the sea on Sunday, its neighbors said, ramping up testing activities in response to ongoing U.S.-South Korean military drills that it views as an invasion rehearsal.
The North’s continuing missile tests showed its determination not to back down despite the U.S.-South Korea exercises, the biggest of their kind in years. But many experts say the missile tests are also part of North Korea’s bigger objective to expand its weapons arsenal, win global recognition as a nuclear state and get international sanctions lifted.
The U.N. Security Council scheduled an emergency open meeting Monday morning at the request of the United States, United Kingdon, Albania, Ecuador, France and Malta in response to North Korea’s previous ICBM launch March 16.
The missile launched Sunday from the North’s northwestern Tongchangri area flew across the country before landing in waters off its east coast, according to South Korean and Japanese assessments. They said the missile traveled about 800 kilometers (500 miles), a range suggesting the weapon could target South Korea.
The chief nuclear envoys from South Korea, Japan and the U.S. discussed the launch by phone and strongly condemned it as a provocation and threat to peace on the Korean Peninsula and in the region. They agreed to strengthen coordination and issue a firm international response, according to Seoul’s Foreign Ministry.
The launch was the North’s third round of weapons tests since the U.S. and South Korean militaries began joint military drills last Monday. The drills, which include computer simulations and field exercises, are to continue until Thursday.
South Korea’s military said it will continue joint drills with the U.S. and maintain a readiness to “overwhelmingly” respond to any provocation. As part of the drills, the U.S. on Sunday flew long-range B-1B bombers for joint training with South Korean warplanes, according to South Korea’s Defense Ministry.
North Korea is highly sensitive to the deployment of B-1Bs, which can carry a huge conventional weapons payload. It responded to the February flights of B-1Bs by test-launching missiles that demonstrated potential ranges to strike some air bases in South Korea.
Japanese Vice Defense Minister Toshiro Ino said the most recent missile landed outside Japan’s exclusive economic zone and there were no reports of damage to vessels or aircraft. He said the missile likely had an irregular trajectory, a possible reference to North Korea’s highly maneuverable, nuclear-capable KN-23 missile.
The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command said the latest launch doesn’t pose any immediate threat to the U.S. territory or its allies. But it said the North’s recent launches highlight “the destabilizing impact of its unlawful” weapons programs and that the U.S. security commitment to South Korea and Japan remains “ironclad.”
The weapons North Korea recently tested include its longest-range Hwasong-17 intercontinental ballistic missile designed to strike the U.S. mainland. The North’s state media quoted leader Kim Jong Un as saying that launch was meant to “strike fear into the enemies.”
Thursday’s launch, the North’s first ICBM firing in a month, drew strong protests from Seoul, Tokyo and Washington. It came hours before South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol flew to Tokyo for a summit with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.
At the summit, Yoon and Kishida agreed to resume their defense dialogue and further strengthen security cooperation with the U.S. to counter North Korea and address other challenges.
Ties between Seoul and Tokyo suffered a major setback in recent years over issues stemming from Japan’s 1910-45 colonial rule of the Korean Peninsula.
But North Korea’s record run of missile tests last year — it launched more than 70 missiles in 2022 alone — pushed Seoul and Tokyo to seek stronger trilateral security partnerships involving Washington, which also wants to reinforce its alliances in Asia to better deal with China’s rise and North Korean nuclear threats.
North Korea has missiles that place Japan within striking distance. Last October, North Korea fired an intermediate-range missile over northern Japan, forcing communities there to issue evacuation alerts and halt trains.
After Sunday’s launch, Kishida ordered a prompt response, including working closely with South Korea and the U.S., according to Ino, the Japanese vice defense minister.
A day before the start of the drills, North Korea also fired cruise missiles from a submarine. The North’s state media said the submarine-launched missile showed the country’s resolve to respond with “overwhelming powerful” force to the intensifying military maneuvers by “the U.S. imperialists and the South Korean puppet forces.”
According to South Korean media reports, the U.S. and South Korea plan more training involving a U.S. aircraft carrier later this month after their current exercises end.
The U.N. Security Council held an informal meeting Friday where the U.S., its allies and human rights experts shone a spotlight on the dire rights situation and increasing repression in North Korea. China and Russia denounced the meeting as a politicized move likely to further escalate tensions on the Korean Peninsula.
North Korea’s U.N. Mission issued a statement Sunday calling the meeting about “our non-existent `human rights issue’“ unlawful. It denounced the United States for waging a pressure campaign against human rights in the country as “a flagrant violation” of its dignity and sovereignty and accused Washington of being “the world’s worst human rights violator.”
The North’s U.N. Mission said the U.S. held Friday’s meeting “while staging the aggressive joint military exercise which poses a grave threat to our national security.“

Thousands are without power as California storms bring rain, snow and cold
Feb 25 (Reuters) – Nearly 85,000 homes and businesses were without power in the Los Angeles area on Saturday as storms continued to pound parts of California, bringing snow to high elevations and rain and hail to lowlands.
Interstate 5, the largest freeway north of the city, was closed at a steep grade known as the Grapevine due to heavy snow, while several southbound points of the freeway in and around Los Angeles were closed due to flooding, the California Department of Transportation said.
In Northern California, record cold temperatures are expected in San Francisco on Saturday, and the National Weather Service warned residents of the state capital, Sacramento, to avoid travel Sunday through Wednesday as rain and snow resumed Saturday.
“Extreme impacts from heavy snow and wind can make driving conditions extremely dangerous and lead to widespread road closures and infrastructure damage!” The company said on Twitter.

The next storms expected to hit Sunday will bring gusts of up to 50 mph (80 km/h) in the Sacramento Valley and 70 mph (70 km/h) in the nearby Sierra Nevada Mountains. Yosemite National Park is closed until Wednesday due to severe winter weather.

Brian Jackson, a forecaster at the NWS Weather Prediction Center in College Park, Maryland, attributed the unusual conditions to a massive low-pressure system driving in from the Arctic.

In Southern California, “this is a rare occurrence of a cold, significant storm event,” Jackson said.
In a sight that must have delighted many Angelenos on Friday, snowflakes fell around the Hollywood sign on Mount Lee in the hills above the city, known for its sunny days and palm trees.
Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are expected to fall on Saturday, a mixture of rain, hail and snow and moisture called “graupel,” the National Weather Service said.
A separate storm that hit the U.S. Plains, Midwest and Great Lakes regions earlier this week crossed New England and swept into the Atlantic on Friday, the weather service said. More than 400,000 customers of Detroit-based DTE Energy ( DTE.N ) were without power Saturday, the Detroit News reported.
Before the latest storm, much of California had experienced an unusually wet, cold winter, with deadly “atmospheric river” storms unleashing widespread flooding, felling trees and triggering mudslides in a state long plagued by drought and wildfires.

SEC Charges Company for Undisclosed Perqs
In a settled enforcement action, the SEC charged Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd. for failure to disclose perqs provided to its CEO and board member, Mark E. Watson III.
According to the SEC, in definitive proxy statements disclosing executive compensation paid for 2014 through 2018, which were filed in 2015 through 2019, Argo disclosed a total of approximately $1.22 million worth of perquisites and personal benefits provided to Watson, with an annual average of approximately $244,000. The disclosed perquisites and personal benefits consisted predominately of 401(k) and retirement contributions, the imputed value of insurance coverage, supplemental executive retirement plan benefits, housing and home leave allowances, medical premiums and financial planning services.
The SEC alleged these same definitive proxy statements failed to disclose over $5.3 million worth of additional perquisites and personal benefits provided to Watson, thereby understating the perquisites and personal benefits portion of Watson’s compensation by an annual average of over $1 million, or 400%. Items that Argo paid for on Watson’s behalf, but did not disclose, include, but are not limited to, expenses associated with personal use of corporate aircraft, rent and other housing costs, personal use of corporate automobiles, helicopter trips, other personal travel costs, use of a car service by family members, club and concierge service memberships, tickets and transportation to sporting, fashion or other entertainment events, personal services provided by Argo employees, and watercraft-related costs.
In February 2019, an Argo shareholder issued a press release in which it alleged, among other things, the misuse of Argo assets by Watson, including undisclosed personal usage of corporate aircraft. On April 12, 2019, during a proxy contest with this shareholder in connection with Argo’s May 2019 annual shareholders meeting, Argo filed a definitive proxy statement that failed to disclose over $1 million worth of perquisites, including over $230,000 related to Watson’s use of corporate aircraft.
Argo conducted an internal investigation, which was launched in June 2019 after receipt of a subpoena from the Commission staff. Thereafter, Watson resigned and agreed to reimburse Argo for certain perquisites and/or personal expenses, subject to an arbitration process as to any items Watson disputes.
The SEC order states that from 2014 through 2018, Argo incorrectly recorded payments for the benefit of, and reimbursements to, Watson as business expenses, and not compensation. As a result, the SEC concluded its books, records, and accounts did not, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect its disposition of assets. As a result of the conduct described, the SEC alleged Argo violated Section 13(b)(2)(A) of the Exchange Act, which requires reporting companies to make and keep books, records and accounts which, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect their transactions and dispositions of their assets.
The SEC also charged Argo with other violations, including violations of Section 13(b)(2)(B) of the Exchange Act, which requires reporting companies to devise and maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that, among other things, transactions are recorded as necessary to maintain accountability for assets.
Argo did not admit or deny the findings in the SEC Order. The SEC did not charge Watson.

electromagnetic pollution
Electromagnetic pollution is the term used to describe all unwanted electromagnetic waves generated by electrical and electronic equipment. These include those that serve radio transmission and are emitted by antennas, those that are generated as interference radiation in conductors and devices, but also ionizing and non-ionizing radiation.
Interfering radiation from radio-technical equipment includes the transmitters for radio and television, the transmission masts of the various mobile radio networks, radio LANs or cordless telephony, to name but a few. The second group includes all electrical and electronic devices; electric stove and microwave oven, the lighting, baby monitors, monitors, televisions, power cables, high- voltage lines, X-ray machines, cell phones and many others. Ionizing radiation is gamma and X-ray radiation and non-ionizing radiation is UV light and thermal radiation.
Electrosmog is the sum of all electromagnetic fields and can be hazardous to health. To prevent such hazards from occurring, there are corresponding regulations and guidelines for compliance with the required limit values for emissions and immissions. In this context, mention should also be made of the SAR value, Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), which in the case of cell phones indicates the interference radiation exposure for the human body. Depending on the type of radiation, effects on the human body are known.
Radiation from low-frequency alternating fields: The low- frequency range covers the frequency range up to 30 kHz and includes the power supply with 50 Hzalternating current. In the in-house area, electric and magnetic low-frequency alternating fields are formed by the power supply network. When current flows through the low-voltage network, magnetic interference fields form with a determinable magnetic flux density, specified in tesla (T). If no current is flowing, then electric interference fields form, causing a calculable electric field strength. The recommended limit for magnetic flux density should not exceed 100 nT, and the electric field strength should be less than 20 V/m.
Radiation from radio frequency (RF) and microwaves (MW): microwaves are absorbed close to the skin; radio frequencies can be absorbed by the entire body. At high intensity, both types of radiation cause heating of body tissues. Sources of radio frequency and microwaves include cellular phones, cell phones, WLANs, Bluetooth, radar systems, CB radios, radio and television transmitters, and other radio-related systems.
The limits for high-frequency emissions are 20 µW/m2 for digital emissions and 200 µW/m2 for analog emissions.
Infrared radiation (IR): Human skin and eyes absorb infrared light as heat. Strong exposure is perceived as heat or pain.
Visible light radiation: The different visible frequencies of the electromagnetic spectrum are perceived by the human eye as colors. High levels of visible light radiation can cause damage to the skin and eyes.
UV radiation: UV light has a high photon energy and is particularly dangerous because symptoms are often delayed. Sources include solar radiation, lighting, arc welding, and UV lasers.

November 5 – 11: “Why do you read and write thrillers?”
Thriller Roundtable
This week, join ITW Members Aimée Thurlo, John Wayne Falbey, AJ Colucci, Patricia Gussin, Thomas M. Malafarina, Elizabeth Goddard, Shirley Tallman, Richard Doetsch and Chuck Greaves as they discuss why they choose to read and write thrillers. You just know it’s going to be thrilling!
A daredevil at heart, internationally bestselling author Richard Doetsch revels in the fact that his thrill-junkie protagonist in his acclaimed Michael St. Pierre series is based on himself and his adventurous exploits (skydiving, Scuba, rock climbing, breaking into forbidden places, racing, etc.) Doetsch published The Thieves of Heaven, in 2008 to critical praise, and hasn’t looked back since. Two additional Thieve cliffhangers followed (The Thieves of Faith in 2008 and The Thieves of Darkness in 2010), along with two highly acclaimed stand-alone novels, The 13th Hour and Half-Past Dawn. Not to mention, Hollywood loves Doetsch as Heaven, Darkness, and The 13th Hour are all being adapted to film by major studios. Now, with THE THIEVES OF LEGEND (November 27, 2012), Doetsch once again plunges his countless readers into the rarified world of ex-thief extraordinaire Michael St. Pierre.
Thomas M. Malafarina is a horror fiction writer from Pennsylvania. He has published four novels, “99 Souls”, “Burn Phone” “Eye Contact” and “Fallen Stones” and story collections “13 Nasty Endings”, Gallery Of Horror”, “Malafarina Maleficarum Volume One” and “Volume Two” as well as a collection of single-panel cartoons called “Yes I Smelled It Too: Cartoons For The Slightly Off-Center” through Sunbury Press of Mechanicsburg, PA. Thomas’ short stories have been featured in numerous anthologies.
Aimée and David Thurlo have been married for forty-two years. Aimee moved in next door to him and it was love at first sight. Three weeks later, they were married. David was raised on the Navajo Indian Reservation and left Shiprock to complete his education at the University of New Mexico. Aimée, born in Havana, Cuba, has lived in New Mexico for forty one years. The team’s popular Ella Clah mystery series, featuring a Navajo woman police officer, won a New Mexico Book Award. Their Lee Nez Navajo vampire novels are currently under option to Red Nation Films in Hollywood. They also write romantic suspense novels for Harlequin and have sold more than a million copies worldwide.
Best-selling author Patricia Gussin is a physician who grew up in Grand Rapids, Michigan, practiced in Philadelphia, and now lives on Longboat Key, Florida. She is also the author of Shadow of Death, Thriller Award nominee for “Best First Novel,” Twisted Justice, The Test, and And Then There Was One. She and her husband, Robert Gussin, are the authors of What’s Next…For You?
Elizabeth Goddard is the award-winning author of more than a dozen novels, including the romantic mystery, The Camera Never Lies—a 2011 Carol Award winner. A 7th generation Texan, she graduated from the University of North Texas with a B.S. in computer science and worked in corporate America for a decade before retiring to write novels.
Chuck Greaves, a former L.A. trial lawyer, is the award-winning author of this year’s HUSH MONEY and next year’s GREEN-EYED LADY, both legal thrillers, both from St. Martin’s Minotaur. His second novel HARD TWISTED (as C. Joseph Greaves), a work of literary/historical fiction based on a true crime, is forthcoming from Bloomsbury in November.
A.J. Colucci grew up in a suburb outside of New York City. She spent fifteen years as a newspaper reporter, magazine editor and writer for corporate America. Today she is a full-time author and self-proclaimed science geek who lives in New Jersey with her husband, two daughters and a couple of cats.
Shirley Tallman was born in Los Angeles, but spent most of her growing up years in San Francisco, California. She is the author of sixteen novels, including the exciting Sarah Woolson historical mystery series. She and her writing partner Nancy Hersage, wrote and sold movies to ABC, NBC and CBS. Their movie, THE BABYSITTER’S SEDUCTION, starring Keri Russell, Stephen Collins and Phyllicia Rashad, originally aired on NBC and continues to play regularly on the LIFETIME Channel. Shirley and her husband Bob divide their time between Eugene, Oregon, and Incline Village, Nevada.
John Wayne Falbey is a modern Renaissance man: attorney, martial artist, real estate developer, triathlete, university professor, competitive cyclist, lecturer, downhill skier, author, and adventurer. He wrote his first novel in his “spare time” as a student at Vanderbilt University School of Law in order to counter the regimentation of law school. His latest novel, SLEEPING DOGS: THE AWAKENING, a techno-political thriller, is the first of a planned trilogy. His next novel, THE QUIXOTICS, a post-Vietnam tale of three young veterans running guns to anti-Castro insurgents in Cuba, is due out on September 15th.

ADHD, which stands for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is often diagnosed in early childhood. Individuals with ADHD may experience difficulty paying attention, sitting still, or controlling impulsive behaviors. ADHD can affect individuals’ lives from childhood to adulthood and may interfere with one’s school, work, family, friendships, or all of the above. ADHD is diagnosed by medical professionals and most commonly treated with behavioral therapy and medication. ADHD is proven to occur more often in males than in females. ADHD is categorized in three different subgroups: Predominantly inattentive, predominantly hyperactive/impulsive, and combined presentation.
While the cause of ADHD is unknown, current research shows that genetics plays a significant role in the causation of ADHD. Additional risk factors include environmental toxin exposure during pregnancy (especially to lead), prenatal alcohol consumption, drug abuse, smoking, brain injury, low birthweight, and premature birth.
Symptoms for ADHD include:
Inability to control impulses
Frequent squirming or fidgeting
Excessive talking
ADHD is most commonly treated with behavioral therapy and psychostimulant medication. Individuals with ADHD can benefit from social skills training and talk therapy with a trained health care professional, and parents and families can benefit from parenting skills training and family talk therapy. Close relationships with family and healthcare professionals are strongly advised.
ADHD can be minimized by mothers during pregnancy by avoiding any substance or activity harmful to the fetus, including pollutants and toxins such as cigarette smoke and lead paint, alcohol, tobacco, or recreational drugs. Eating a healthy diet, exercising daily, getting the recommended amount of sleep each night, and limiting screen time can also help prevent and manage ADHD.

Evviva Weinraub, MLS 2006, Named Vice Provost for University of Buffalo Libraries
iSchoolNews - May 31, 2019
University of Buffalo Media Alert
Evviva Weinraub has been named vice provost for university libraries, Provost Charles F. Zukoski announced today.
A national leader in digital library initiatives, technology and innovation, Weinraub joins UB from Northwestern University, where she is associate university librarian for collections and technologies.
Her appointment, which comes after a national search, is effective Aug. 1.
“Ms. Weinraub stood out because of her impressive leadership experience, innovative approach to delivering library collections and services, commitment to inclusive excellence, national leadership in digital library initiatives, and creative vision for University Libraries and the future of academic research libraries,” Zukoski said in a memo to the university community.
At Northwestern, Weinraub has provided leadership and advocacy for information technology, digital initiatives, metadata, print materials processing, preservation and conservation, repository and digitization services, access services and global initiatives.
“Among her impressive contributions” at Northwestern, Zukoski said, was her leadership of “a cross-campus initiative to launch the Academic Resource Center, a hub for undergraduate academic support that is based in the libraries. She provided leadership on the re-opening of a new campus library and spearheaded work on campus around textbook affordability and the implementation of Open Educational Resources (OER) in teaching and learning.”
Weinraub is vice president-elect and will serve as the 2020-21 president of the Library and Information Technology Association, a division of the American Library Association.
In collaboration with Indiana University, she serves also as co-director of the Avalon Project, an open source system for managing and providing access to large collections of digital audio and video materials.
Weinraub received her undergraduate degree in history from Boston University and her Master of Library and Information Science from the University of Maryland, College Park.
She has published and presented extensively on library management, intersectional feminist leadership, open source development, user experience and digital publishing. In 2018-19, she was an Association of Research Libraries Leadership Fellow.
She works with HathiTrust, a partnership of academic and research institutions that provides access to digitized book and journal content, and Fedora Project, an open source operating system sponsored by the software company Red Hat Inc.
Weinraub serves on the board of directors of two nonprofits: DuraSpace, which is affiliated with Fedora and other organizations; and Lyrasis, whose mission is “to support enduring access to the world’s shared academic, scientific and cultural heritage through leadership in open technologies, content services, digital solutions and collaboration with archives, libraries, museums and knowledge communities worldwide.”
Prior to joining Northwestern, she was chief operating officer and service manager for the Digital Preservation Network, a federation of more than 60 institutions working toward the long-term preservation of digital objects. She also held positions at Oregon State University, Tufts University and Yale University.
She succeeds Austin Booth, vice provost for university libraries from 2011-18. Elizabeth Adelman, vice dean for legal information services and director of the Charles B. Sears Law Library in the School of Law, has served as interim vice provost since Booth’s departure.

USAF B-1 Lancer bomber to perform flyover at Aero India 2021
2 B-1B Lancers, assigned to 28th Bomb Wing, Ellsworth Air Force Base, S.D., before landing at Andersen AFB, Guam, July 17, 2020. (Airman 1st Class Christina Bennett/U.S. Air Force)
February 02, 2021 Saurav Chordia
The 13th Edition of Aero India has already received huge garnered attention from all over the world with an enthralling setup of weapons and aviation systems as part of a showcase coming to Yelahanka Air Base.
With 11 international aircraft delegations participating in the exhibition, a selective number of foreign planes, the most anticipated aircraft in Aero India, will be from the United States Air Force.
Hailed as the backbone of the U.S. Air Force Strategic Bombing Squadron, The Rockwell B-1 Lancer will appear in India’s mega airshow in a Fly By over the skies of Bengaluru. Part of the 28th Bomber Wing based in the Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota, the USAF will be sending their trusted beast to Indian soil.
Lancer’s appearance will be quite a spectacle in Aero India 2021. B-1 is one of the most respected frontline bombers of the U.S. Air force. The noteworthy bomber has the long-range heavy blended body of swept-wing configuration aircraft with a capacity of delivering a diverse range of guided to unguided strategic munitions against enemies at a maximum take-off weight of 216 tonnes.
The 146-foot long bomber aircraft has a wingspan of 137 feet, which helps it fly at a maximum service ceiling of 60,000 feet at 1.25 mach speed. This beast is designed to carry a massive ordinance at a range of 9,400 km. Before 2007, all B-1 Lancers were nuclear armament carriers until the activation of a strategic arms reduction treaty, which allowed Lancers to undergo structural and engineering reforms to carry conventional weapons onboard.
First flown in 1974 as part of a design contest for building supersonic capable heavy bombers, Rockwell International won the contest and made this plane as the successor of B-58 Hustler. There were over 100 B-1B Lancers made by 1988, and all bombers were inducted in Strategic Air Command as part of Air Deterrent Leg of US Nuclear Triad Policy. Since then, Lancers have been heavily upgraded to continue their service in USAF as heavy bombers, with a complementing fleet of Stealth Strategic Bomber B-2 Spirit and the USAF B-52 Stratofortress.
Lancer holds around 50 world records in various performances including speed, ferry range, climb rate and combat range. B-1B has seen combat over Iraq, Libya and Syria, with 79% combat operations during Operation Allied Force, Operation Enduring Freedom and Damascus.
Aero India’s 13th year will be the first global level exhibition of aircraft and defense equipment in the COVID-19 pandemic. It is set to be held from February 3 to 5, Aero India is on track to be the most attended show of the year.

Jascha Heifetz
Remembering Seymour Lipkin
November 18, 2015 by Timothy Judd
pianist Seymour Lipkin (1927-2015)
American pianist and teacher Seymour Lipkin passed away on Monday. He was 88.
Born in Detroit, Lipkin studied with Rudolf Serkin, Mieczyslaw Horszowski, and David Saperton. During the Second World War, while still a student at Curtis, he accompanied Jascha Heifetz in concerts for American troops stationed around the world. In 1948 Lipkin won the Rachmaninov Competition, launching a significant solo career. He was a longtime faculty member of both the Juilliard School and the Curtis Institute of Music. In his youth, he studied conducting with Serge Koussevitzky at Tanglewood and George Szell as an apprentice at the Cleveland Orchestra.
Interviews suggest that Seymour Lipkin was the model of a well-rounded artist. As a teenager he was inspired by the music from Wagner’s Ring Cycle. (He would later serve as Curtis’ opera pianist). For students, he stressed the importance of listening to a variety of music and developing your own interpretation.
Seymour Lipkin was regarded as one of the finest interpreters of the music of Beethoven. In 2004 he released the complete cycle of Beethoven’s piano sonatas on the Newport Classics label. Unlike many artists, he was intimately involved in the editing of his recordings, with the goal of capturing the spontaneity and cohesiveness of a live performance. Here, he plays the stormy first movement of Beethoven’s “Pathétique” Sonata:
In contrast to the opening movement, the second movement of the “Pathétique” moves to a serene new world:
Here is the Rondo:

Hugh Sung Launches “A Musical Life” Podcasts
Hugh Sung: pianist, teacher and musical Renaissance man
Korean-American pianist Hugh Sung can be described as a musical Renaissance man. A graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music, Sung has performed throughout the world, collaborating with soloists such as Hilary Hahn, Leila Josefowicz, and Julius Baker, longtime principal flutist with the New York Philharmonic. As a techie and entrepreneur, Hugh Sung was one of the first professional musicians to imagine performances utilizing digital music scores (beginning with Microsoft’s Tablet PC in 2001). In 2008, he co-founded AirTurn, a company that develops a host of cutting-edge tech gadgets for musicians, including wireless page turning pedals. He is the author of From Paper to Pixels: Your Guide to the Digital Sheet Music Revolution. As a teacher, Sung, who served for 19 years on the Curtis faculty, has reached out to long distance students through Video Exchange Learning technology from ArtistWorks.
Now Hugh Sung is engaging with classical music enthusiasts in yet a new way. On Monday, he launched A Musical Life with Hugh Sung, a collection of weekly podcasts featuring fascinating interviews with renowned musicians. He describes it as, “sharing stories about making music and the things that move our souls.”
A Musical Life has hit the ground running with an eclectic collection of offerings already in place. Philadelphia Orchestra concertmaster David Kim opens up about his journey through the competitive world of classical music, from early disappointments and insecurities to finding ultimate joy and satisfaction in serving music. Sung does a two-part interview with legendary violinist Aaron Rosand, whom Sung first met as a student at Curtis and later joined as a collaborator. Rosand talks about the distinctive individuality of “golden age” violinists such as Jascha Heifetz, the role of the bow in tone production, the sound of his ex-Kochanski Guarneri del Gesù, his love of old jazz, and more. Other interviews include pianist Gary Graffman, Gaelic singers Isobel Ann and Calum Martin, and Jordan Rudess, a member of the progressive rock band, Dream Theater. In the first episode, A Lonely Song, Sung shares thoughts about the second movement of Maurice Ravel’s Piano Concerto in G major.
A Musical Life is extraordinary, not only because of Hugh Sung’s musical background, but because of his talent as an interviewer. He is sincere and down to earth, asking all the right questions and allowing the discussion to unfold naturally. As a listener, you feel as if you’re sitting in a comfortable room with friends. As musical examples are discussed, we get to hear excerpts from the artists’ recordings. Enjoyable now, these interviews will live on as fascinating historical documents. It will be exciting to follow the podcasts at A Musical Life in the weeks ahead.
Hugh Sung and Aaron Rosand
Hugh Sung first met violinist Aaron Rosand as a student at the Curtis Institute. Later, Rosand and Sung collaborated on a series of recordings.
Here is excerpt from their 2007 recording of the three Brahms Violin Sonatas. (Brahms’ Hungarian Dances and Joachim’s Romance in B-flat are also included on the disc). This is the first movement of Brahms’ Sonata No. 1 in G:
Here is a beautiful and rarely-heard piece from Rosand and Sung’s 2011 recording featuring Romances for violin: Sibelius’ Romance, Op. 78, No. 2.

Three Pieces for the Beginning of Summer
June 3, 2015 by Timothy Judd
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm’d;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm’d;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.
-William Shakespeare, Sonnet 18
Vivaldi’s Four Seasons: Summer
Let’s begin with violinist Janine Jansen’s exciting approach to Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons. This performance features an unusual edge-of-your seat passion and fire. The dramatic effects of Vivaldi’s music come to life in a way that makes the music feel fresh, as if it was just written:

Mischa, Jascha, Toscha, Sascha
May 27, 2015 by Timothy Judd
George and Ira Gershwin
A pop song about the prominent violinists of the day? It seems hard to imagine now. But around 1921 George and Ira Gershwin wrote Mischa, Jascha, Toscha, Sascha, a lighthearted ditty about four great Jewish Russian violinists who were well known at the time: Mischa Elman, Jascha Heifetz, Toscha Seidel, and Sascha Jacobsen. The lyric also refers to “Fritz” (Kreisler) and the legendary teacher Leopold Auer. According to biographer Charles Schwartz, George Gershwin enjoyed playing the song at parties whenever one of the violinists who inspired the title was present.
Heifetz needs no introduction, but who are the others? Born in 1891, Mischa Elman is remembered for his rich, golden tone, expressive portamento, and tendency towards Romantic phrasing which occasionally bent the rhythm. Here is his recording of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto with the Chicago Symphony. Here is a 1954 recording of Elman performing Dvořák’s Humoresque.
Toscha Seidel’s solo career was, perhaps unfairly, overshadowed by Heifetz. But we can hear the passionate intensity of his playing on recordings like this 1945 live performance of Ernest Chausson’s Poème with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra conducted by Leopold Stokowski. Seidel eventually settled in California and became a studio soloist for Hollywood films. Listen to this music from the 1939 film Intermezzo which starred Leslie Howard and Ingrid Bergman.
Sascha Jacobsen is another violinist whose career was overshadowed by Heifetz. In his book Great Masters of the Violin, Boris Schwarz claims that Jacobsen was born in New York in 1897 and that his manager tried to turn him into a “Russian fiddler” for publicity purposes. In the 1940s he served as concertmaster of the Los Angeles Philharmonic. He was the teacher of Zvi Zeitlin. Here is a 1913 recording of Jacobsen performing Handel.
And now here is the Gershwins’ humorous snapshot of early twentieth century violin history:

Jascha Heifetz: God’s Fiddler
April 20, 2015 April 20, 2015 by Timothy Judd
Jascha Heifetz (1901-1987)
Jascha Heifetz: God’s Fiddler, the American Masters documentary which aired last week on PBS, offers an inside look at the life of one of the twentieth century’s most influential violinists. The program includes rare film and audio clips and features interviews with prominent contemporary violinists and former Heifetz students. It follows Heifetz from child prodigy roots in Russia, where he was a student of Leopold Auer at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory, to his immigration to the United States and longtime residence in Southern California. In addition to his private and somewhat lonely personal temperament, the documentary highlights Heifetz’s rigorous sense of discipline and emphasis on scales.
Jascha Heifetz raised the bar for all violinists who followed, his name becoming synonymous with technical perfection. His recordings suggest an exhilarating sense of pushing limits…staying right “on the edge” without ever falling. This quality seems to have been present from the beginning. As the story goes, the young Jascha launched into Paganini’s Moto perpetuo at such a stunningly fast tempo that Leopold Auer gasped, saying, “He doesn’t even realize that it can’t be played that fast.” Heifetz’s playing transcended sentimentality, unleashing raw power and blinding intensity.

The Brahms Violin Concerto: 8 Great Recordings
April 8, 2015 by Timothy Judd
Johannes Brahms’ Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 77 stands with Beethoven’s Concerto at the pinnacle of the violin repertoire. No concerto unleashes the soaring, heroic power and poetic potential of the violin more profoundly than Brahms’. It’s music that runs the gamut between smoldering ferocity and tranquil introspection, encompassing a universe of expression.
Brahms’ forty-plus year friendship and musical partnership with the German violinist and composer Joseph Joachim (1831-1907) was central to the Violin Concerto’s inception. Beginning with an August 21, 1878 correspondence, Joachim offered Brahms technical and musical advice after seeing sketches of the concerto, which was originally conceived in four movements. With Brahms conducting (inadequately), Joachim gave a hastily prepared and technically insecure premiere on January 1, 1879 at the Leipzig Gewandhaus. This was followed by another slightly more successful performance in Vienna. But even Brahms’ most dedicated supporters, such as Joachim and the powerful Vienna critic Eduard Hanslick, seem to have needed time to warm up to the new composition. This initial lukewarm public reception and Joachim’s complaints of “awkward” violin passages show how profoundly Brahms’ Concerto pushed the envelope musically and in terms of violin technique. As affection for the work grew, Brahms wrote to a friend:
Joachim plays my piece more beautifully with every rehearsal, and his Cadenza has become so beautiful by concert time that the public applauded into my Coda.
As a composer, Brahms was haunted by the “footsteps of a giant,” Beethoven, whose music had profoundly changed the course of music history. Following the example of the Beethoven Violin Concerto, Brahms’ Concerto is set in D major and opens with a long orchestral introduction. From the opening of the first movement, there’s a sense that the music is searching for a way forward. Following the opening statement, the oboe takes us in a new, unexpected direction. Then, resolute octaves turn into chords and suddenly we know where we are. In the passage that follows, listen closely to the canon that develops between the high and low strings. The first movement’s introduction concludes with a ferocious buildup to the violin’s entrance. Notice the rhythmic instability Brahms sets up in the low instruments, which causes us to lose track of the downbeat. You’ll hear Brahms play these occasional rhythmic games throughout the movement, especially in the final bars.
The solo violin explodes onto the scene with its first entrance, as if unleashing all of the introduction’s tension. Listen to the way the strings snarl back at the solo line in this opening. The way the solo and orchestral voices fit together is a huge part of the drama of this piece. Joseph Hellmesberger, who conducted the Vienna premiere, accused Brahms of writing a concerto, “not for, but against the violin.”
One of this concerto’s most serenely beautiful moments is the first movement’s coda, following the cadenza. In these bars, time seems suspended and we almost hold our breath as the final tutti is delayed. Just when we think the violin can’t reach higher, it somehow does. As the movement inches towards its final resolution, listen to the quiet, suspended fanfare in the horns and woodwinds.
The second movement opens with one of the most tranquil and sublime oboe solos in orchestral music. This extended statement is the last thing we would expect in a violin concerto. The Spanish virtuoso, Pablo de Sarasate complained that he refused to “stand on the rostrum, violin in hand and listen to the oboe playing the only tune in the adagio.”
The final movement is a sparkling, fun-loving romp. You can hear echoes of the final movement of Max Bruch’s First Violin Concerto. Brahms’ opening theme apparently served as a model for Andrew Lloyd Webber’s pop song, Don’t Cry for me, Argentina from the musical, Evita.
Eight Great Recordings
Here are eight contrasting recordings of the Brahms Violin Concerto. Explore the list and then share your thoughts in the comment thread below. If you have a favorite recording that didn’t make the list, leave your own suggestion below.
Henryk Szeryng and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra
Henryk Szeryng’s 1974 recording with Bernard Haitink and Amsterdam’s Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra is one of the most inspiring recordings I’ve heard of this piece. There is a straightforward classicism to his approach. At the same time, the drama of the music shines through. The tempos on this recording capture the expressive weight of the music. Szeryng plays Joachim’s cadenzas:
Jascha Heifetz and the Chicago Symphony
This classic 1959 Heifetz recording, with Fritz Reiner conducting the Chicago Symphony, was my first introduction to the piece as a child. The searing intensity of this performance is unparalleled. With Heifetz’s trademark fast tempos, this is one of the most exciting, yet soulful performances you’ll hear:
Hilary Hahn and the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields
If you’re looking for a modern performance, you won’t go wrong with Hilary Hahn’s 2001 recording with Sir Neville Marriner and the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. The motto of this CD might be, “opposites attract,” because the Brahms is coupled with an equally great performance of the Stravinsky Violin Concerto.
Bronislaw Huberman and the Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra of New York
This historic, live 1944 recording of Bronislaw Huberman and conductor Artur Rodzinski in New York offers a unique slice of history. As a child, Huberman played the concerto in Brahms’ presence in Vienna in January, 1896. According to the biographer Max Kalbeck:
As soon as Brahms heard the sound of the violin, he pricked up his ears, during the Andante he wiped his eyes, and after the Finale he went into the green room, embraced the young fellow, and stroked his cheeks. When Huberman complained that the public applauded after the cadenza, breaking into the lovely Cantilena, Brahms replied, “You should not have played the cadenza so beautifully”…Brahms brought him a photo of his, inscribed, “In friendly memory of Vienna and your grateful listener J. Brahms.”
In his book, Great Masters of the Violin, Boris Schwarz recounts that someone overheard Brahms promise to write a short violin fantasy for the young Huberman, adding jokingly, “if I have any fantasy left.” But Brahms died the following year.

Julia Fischer and the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra Amsterdam
Julia Fischer’s 2006 recording with conductor Yakov Kreizberg is the most recent CD on the list. Fischer offers a Romantic and introspective reading, filled with mystery. The disk includes Brahms’ “Double” Concerto with German cellist Daniel Müller-Schott.
Anne-Sophie Mutter and the New York Philharmonic
Anne-Sophie Mutter recorded the Brahms early in her career with Herbert von Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic (listen here). It’s interesting to compare that more straightforward interpretation with her later 1997 recording with Kurt Masur and the New York Philharmonic. The later recording is definitely more romantic with more emphasis on vibrato. Mutter’s dynamic range is also remarkably wide. I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts on which version you prefer.
David Oistrakh and the French National Radio Orchestra
Few “great recordings” lists are complete without a performance by David Oistrakh. Oistrakh recorded the Brahms Concerto several times. Otto Klemperer conducted this reverberant 1960 studio recording.
Ruggiero Ricci and the Sinfonia of London
This 1991 Ruggiero Ricci CD features sixteen cadenzas including those written by Ferruccio Busoni, Leopold Auer, Eugène Ysaÿe, Fritz Kreisler, Adolf Busch, and Nathan Milstein.

Music Beyond the Holocaust
January 29, 2015 January 28, 2015 by Timothy Judd
Berlin’s Holocaust Memorial
Yesterday was the seventieth anniversary of the allied liberation of Auschwitz at the end of the Second World War. Orchestras around the world, including the Richmond Symphony, commemorated the event by playing often neglected music by Jewish composers who were affected by Nazi atrocities.
Music was performed frequently in the concentration camps. At Terezin, near Prague, prisoners defiantly performed Verdi’s Requiem sixteen times as a veiled condemnation of the Nazis. The conductor Raphael Schächter taught his fellow prisoners the music by rote, using a single score. As prisoners were moved to other camps, Schächter painstakingly began the process again.
In 1936, Jewish Polish violinist Bronislaw Huberman founded the Palestine Symphony Orchestra (now the Israel Philharmonic). Huberman helped nearly 1,000 Jewish musicians flee the Third Reich. He is often credited with helping to preserve the Jewish musical tradition.
Violins of Hope by James A. Grymes examines the importance of the violin in Jewish culture.
Erwin Schulhoff’s String Quartet No. 1
Czech composer Erwin Schulhoff (b. 1894-1942) was mentored by Antonín Dvořák and later studied with Claude Debussy. You can hear both Czech folk music and the wispy sounds of Impressionism in his brief but powerful String Quartet No. 1. Schulhoff died of tuberculosis at the Wülzburg concentration camp on August 18, 1942.
This piece contains ghostly and ethereal voices. Listen to the way the final movement fades into eternity.
Here is a performance by the Kocian Quartet:
Presto con fuoco (0:00)
Allegretto con moto e con malinconia grotesca (2:15)
Allegro giocoso alla Slovacca (5:53)
Andante molto sostenuto (8:50)

Korngold and the “Hollywood Sound”
We thought of ourselves as Viennese; Hitler made us Jewish.
-Erich Wolfgang Korngold
In one of the great ironies of music history, Hitler was partly responsible for the lush, colorful sound we associate with the golden age of Hollywood film scores. Jewish composers, including Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Max Steiner, Dimitri Tiomkin, and Miklós Rózsa emigrated to the United States as the film industry was blossoming. Had these composers been free to remain in Europe, many of the greatest film scores would likely have become symphonies.
Korngold created film scores for movies like The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938), The Sea Hawk (1940), and Kings Row (1941). The later score seems to have subconsciously (or consciously) influenced the Main Theme of John Williams’ Star Wars as well as Superman. Listen to a suite from the score and then a back-to-back comparison of the two themes here. This music can be heard as a continuation of the late Romantic tradition of Gustav Mahler and Richard Strauss. In the New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, Brendan G. Carroll writes,
Treating each film as an ‘opera without singing’ (each character has his or her own leitmotif) [Korngold] created intensely romantic, richly melodic and contrapuntally intricate scores, the best of which are a cinematic paradigm for the tone poems of Richard Strauss and Franz Liszt. He intended that, when divorced from the moving image, these scores could stand alone in the concert hall. His style exerted a profound influence on modern film music.
Korngold’s Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 35, written in 1945, draws on music from the movies Anthony Adverse (1936), Another Dawn (1937), The Prince and the Pauper (1937), and Juarez (1939). The concerto was dedicated to Alma Mahler, the widow of Gustav Mahler, who served as a childhood mentor to Korngold. There are moments where the spirit of late Mahler briefly surfaces (in the first movement at 6:44 in the recording below). Jascha Heifetz gave the premiere with the Saint Louis Symphony in 1947.
Some concertos open with a long orchestra introduction before the solo instrument is heard. By contrast, in this concerto the violin greets us from the start; the expansive, open intervals of the theme suggesting endless possibilities. Waves of colorful sound leap from every corner of the orchestra throughout the outer movements. At moments, the violin becomes a solitary voice, venturing towards the wilderness of atonality before the orchestra pulls us back.
The Romanza enters intimate new territory. Listen carefully to the subtle conflict in the second movement’s opening chord. This is an instance where one note changes everything. The music seems to be searching. We hear high, shimmering voices followed by a dark and icy low chord. Notice the splashes of color which sparkle around the violin’s lamenting melody.
Here is a performance by Hilary Hahn and the Kölner Philharmonie, conducted by Heinrich Schiff. Hahn talks about the music here.
Moderato nobile (0:00)
Romanze (8:36)
Allegro assai vivace (16:44)

Heifetz Plays “White Christmas”
December 19, 2014 by Timothy Judd
Jascha Heifetz and accompanist Milton Kaye (far Left) have dinner with troops from the 21st General Hospital following a USO concert in Naples, Italy, June 16,1944.
If you’ve never heard Jascha Heifetz’s 1944 recording of Irving Berlin’s White Christmas, take a moment and listen.
White Christmas was first performed by Bing Crosby on Christmas Day, 1941. Crosby’s single sold 50 million copies and stands as the best-selling single of all time. The song resonated with soldiers stationed abroad during the Second World War.
Around the time this recording was made, Heifetz assisted the war effort by performing USO-organized concerts for troops stationed in Central and South America, Italy, and North Africa. Flying in U.S. Air Force planes, Heifetz performed 45 concerts in eight weeks. According to a New York Times account,
‘The Messrs Heifetz and Kaye played in theatres, opera houses, airplane hangers, battleships and right up at the front lines…For the front-line engagements, of which there were several, the concerts were given from an open truck which carted a small, olive-drab piano.
White Christmas ranks number two on the Songs of the Century list, behind Over the Rainbow. There’s a sense of melancholy lurking beneath the surface in both songs. In an article published yesterday at Smithsonian.com, Marissa Fessenden examines the sadness of White Christmas and personal tragedy in Irving Berlin’s life.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHVK_5gBoGk
Irving Berlin, one of the twentieth century’s greatest song writers, couldn’t read or write music. He played the piano only in the key of F-sharp, which uses many black keys. Berlin dictated melodies to a secretary, who transcribed the musical notation. According to one story, after writing White Christmas, Berlin said,
Grab your pen and take down this song. I just wrote the best song I’ve ever written — heck, I just wrote the best song that anybody’s ever written!
Jazz miniatures arranged and recorded by Jascha Heifetz can be found on a compilation disk called, It Ain’t Necessarily So: Legendary Classic and Jazz Studio Takes.

Her next project was a television movie entitled Past Sins directed by David Winning, in which she co-starred with Lauralee Bell. Past Sins aired on Lifetime in November, 2006.
In 2012, she appeared in Sarah Polley's documentary film Stories We Tell, playing Polley's mother Diane in dramatic recreations.
As a singer, Jenkins has primarily been a backing vocalist for Jane Siberry and Parachute Club. She has also recorded tracks for a number of Canadian benefit and compilation albums, and participated in the Count Your Blessings concert with Siberry, Holly Cole, Mary Margaret O'Hara and Victoria Williams. As well, Jenkins is featured prominently on the Bye Bye Blues soundtrack album; her character in the film is a woman who takes up jazz singing to support her family while her husband is away during World War II. She also performed the title track "Bye Bye Blues" in Calgary at the September 1, 2005, opening the night of the celebration of Alberta's centennial.
In 2007, she was scheduled to release her first solo album, a collection of jazz standards. Her husband, Joel Bakan, an accomplished jazz guitarist, accompanies her as well as Al Matheson on trumpet and Liam Macdonald on drums and percussion. Following this jazz release, there was to be a release of an album of her original material.
She also cohosted a five-week radio series called Quiet, There's a Lady on Stage with singer-songwriter David Ramsden. The radio show was recorded with four new female singers weekly in the CBC's Glenn Gould Studio. Guests included Carole Pope, Holly Cole, Lee Whalen, Lori Yates, Molly Johnson, Kate Fenner and Mary Margaret O'Hara.
She married Joel Bakan, the writer of the book and documentary film The Corporation, in July 2004.

Successful cooperation between De Gruyter, the FID Jewish Studies (Specialized Information Services Program) and Knowledge Unlatched Frankfurt/Berlin
Open Access: 20 Titles from the field Jewish Studies now openly accessible
FRANKFURT/BERLIN. The Fachinformationsdienst (FID) Jewish Studies and De Gruyter present 20 titles from the field of Jewish Studies Open Access. The e-books have been made openly accessible through Knowledge Unlatched and its "KU Reverse" model. The title list contains important works from the fields of history, Jewish studies and literature, including fundamental works such as the "Handbuch der deutsch-jüdischen Literatur" (Handbook of German-Jewish Literature) edited by Hans Otto Horch and "Die Sprache der Judenfeindschaft im 21. Jahrhundert" (The Language of Antisemitism in the 21st Century) by Monika Schwarz-Friesel and Jehuda Reinharz. The titles can be accessed on Open Access portals such as OAPEN and library catalogues. Together with other freely accessible ebooks, the 20 titles can be found on the publisher's website.
The FID Jewish Studies at the JCS University Library Frankfurt/Main is directed by Dr. Rachel Heuberger and has replaced the former special collections "Science of the Jews" and "Israel". The aim is to provide the specialist community with research-relevant literature, but also to develop innovative research tools. "The free provision of these titles was particularly important to us, as they are used by our scientists in cooperation with other institutions all over the world. The acquisition barrier has previously made academic work more difficult," says Dr. Rachel Heuberger, head of FID Jewish Studies at Frankfurt University Library.
"The cooperation with FID Jewish Studies is a promising start for us to further expand Open Access in this programme segment. We look forward to continuing to work constructively on new models in future in dialogue with our partners in order to promote the idea of free accessibility and easy retrieval of scientific results," says Martin Rethmeier, Editorial Director History at De Gruyter.

The cosmochemist Professor Alexander Krot (University of Hawaii) is coming to Goethe University as recipient of the Humboldt Research Award
Improving understanding of how the solar system is formed
FRANKFURT. The observatory on Mauna Kea in Hawaii is world-famous. Less well-known is the fact that the Hawaiian Islands are home to one of the leading institutes for cosmochemistry, the Institute for Geophysics and Planetology (HIGP). One of its scientists is the renowned cosmochemist Professor Alexander Krot, and he is now coming to Goethe University for half a year as Humboldt researcher.
Professor Frank Brenker, geophysicist at Goethe University has been working successfully with Professor Alexandor Kort for years. This gave Krot the impetus to temporarily take leave from his Institute for Geophyscis and Planetology (HIGP) on Hawaii, where a large number of powerful measuring instruments are at his disposal for the examination of extraterrestrial material. As recipient of the Humboldt Research Award he will be working in Frankfurt am Main for six months.
At the Institute for Geosciences at Goethe University, Krot will be working both in teaching and research. He is especially interested in nanoscale analytical methods using transmission electron microscopy and synchrotron radiation, an area in which Frank Brenker specializes.
Alexander Krot made a particular name for himself through his work on the formation of the first solid bodies of our solar system. Numerous fundamental insights into the childhood of the solar nebula are based on his research. With more than 160 publications, of which 14 are in “Nature” or “Science”, his scientific body of work is impressive.
Krot is not only one of the most influential and successful researchers in the area of cosmochemistry, the science of the formation and distribution of chemical elements and compounds in the solar system – he is also an excellent teacher. He can now pass on his knowledge directly in several bachelor and master projects at the same time. “It’s a unique opportunity for our students to be able to work with such an internationally successful researcher this early in their careers,” reports Brenker with pleasure. “Some of them are already familiar with Mr. Krot from his many groundbreaking publications, and it is naturally exciting for them to now be able to discuss things directly with him.”

Cancer researcher Dr. Sjoerd van Wijk receives € 222,500 from the German Research Foundation
Improving the understanding of death receptor functions in cells
FRANKFURT. Whether defective cells in the body will live or die is determined by a sophisticated control system. Death receptors play important roles in this system and translate information from outside the cell into critical cellular responses, which are often deregulated in diseases like cancer and inflammation. Cancer researcher Dr. Sjoerd van Wijk from Goethe University will investigate how these receptors function at the molecular level in a new research project which will receive €222,500 in funding over the next three years from the German Research Foundation (DFG).
An effective regulation of programmed cell death is crucial for the correct development of embryos, a working innate immune system, and the prevention of cancer. How cells control the switch between cell survival and death, and which signalling pathways are involved, remain unclear. Proteins that interact with death receptors in these signalling pathways are often marked with various forms of ubiquitin chains, such as linear (M1) and K63-linked polyubiquitin chains. Deubiquitinating enzymes, which specifically break down ubiquitin chains, play a central role in the regulation of these chains, death receptor signalling, and cell fate.
“In our project, we want to investigate the network of M1-deubiquitinating enzymes and interactions with death receptor signalling in mammalian cells in order to understand the fundamental role of the ubiquitin in cell death or survival,” explains Sjoerd van Wijk, group leader at the Institute of Experimental Cancer Research in Pediatrics. The ultimate goal is to understand human diseases, in particular how cancer develops and spreads, and how cells protect themselves against invasive bacteria.
In his research group, van Wijk pursues multidisciplinary approaches using state-of-the-art technology. Through collaborations with Dr. Manuel Kaulich (CRISPR/Cas9 Screening Centre at Goethe University), he has access to highly efficient screening methods to unravel the molecular events that control death receptor function. The analysis of these molecular complexes is also being supported by the ubiquitin mass spectrometry at the Institute for Biochemistry II at Goethe University (Prof. Dr. Ivan Dikic) and at the Institute of Molecular Biology in Mainz (Dr. Petra Beli), as well as by the high-resolution microscopy at the Institute of Physical and Theoretical Chemistry at Goethe University (Prof. Dr. Mike Heilemann).

The behaviour of the nematode provides important clues for the evolution of food-motivated behaviour in higher animals
Is foraging behaviour regulated the same way in humans and worms?
How does our nervous system motivate us to get off the sofa and walk to the fridge, or even to the supermarket, to get food? A research team led by Alexander Gottschalk from Goethe University investigated this using the threadworm Caenorhabditis elegans. The results indicate how foraging behaviour in higher animals might have evolved.
Finding food and staying at a food source are crucial survival strategies in the animal world. But how are external feeding signals on the molecular, cellular and neuronal circuit level transformed into behaviour? To find out, neuroscientists often resort to less complex model species such as the nematode C. elegans. It only has 302 nerve cells and its network of connections has been precisely mapped, allowing scientists to investigate in detail how its nerve cells communicate with each other to achieve certain types of behaviour.
Alexander Gottschalk and his team focused in this study on a neuronal circuit involving a pair of sensory nerve cells that detect the presence of food, and release the neuromodulator dopamine. This dopamine signal affects two types of downstream neurons, termed DVA and AVK and, as the team discovered, it does so in opposing ways. Dopamine activates DVA, promoting dwelling and local search behaviour, while inhibiting AVK, which promotes dispersal and long-range search behaviour. Specifically, this takes place by DVA and AVK signalling to further downstream motoneurons, which in turn control muscle activity.
But what conclusions does this allow regarding foraging in higher animals such as humans? In the worm, the DVA neuron modulates locomotion by signalling to motoneurons via the neuropeptide NLP-12. Mammals have an equivalent to NLP-12, the neuropeptide cholecystokinin. Its release is also regulated by dopamine signalling, for example in reward-related behaviour like feeding. This shows that during evolution, the importance of dopamine and the neuropeptide cholecystokinin/NLP-12 as neuromodulators has been conserved. They influence motivated behaviour in the search for food intake, but also other actions, if rewarding sensations can be actively gained by certain behaviours.
The neuron AVK, which acts as an antagonist to the DVA neuron, releases a neuropeptide called FLP-1 in the absence of food. FLP-1 acts as a counterpart to NLP-12/cholecystokinin in the worm. Although FLP-1 is more likely to be invertebrate-specific, similar 'RF-amide' neuropeptides are found in mammals, where they also control food intake.
Thus, similar inhibitory balancing of cholecystokinin signalling may also be found in mammals. The C. elegans neuron types identified in this study may thus provide important guidance in the search for similar cell types in mammals where myriads of cells mediate similar mechanisms of motor control.

Professor Thomas Zittel awarded ORA grant for research of parliamentary representation in fluid voter markets
Politics in times of floating voters
FRANKFURT. Once an SPD voter, always an SPD voter? This kind of consistency in voting behaviour is long gone. But what does the decreasing alignment of voters with political parties mean for parliamentary representation? Professor Thomas Zittel from Goethe University is looking into this questions together with an international team of researchers. The research group successfully won a grant from the German Research Foundation’s (DFG) Open Research Area (ORA) Programme.
The ORA project bears the title “The Nature of Political Representation in Times of Dealignment,” and examines the connection between citizens and parliament, which is essential for democracy. The last thirty years show a clear trend in this relationship: as mediating agent between citizen interests and parliamentary decision-making, political parties have lost the ability to provide linkage. How does this affect the way citizen interests are perceived and represented by parliamentary elites? While analyzing the behaviours of legislators in a mixed-methods approach, the international research team will investigate whether geographic and social ties between individual members of parliament and voters offer an alternative to, or an enhancement of, collective representation by political parties.
Zittel will closely collaborate with Prof. Rosie Campbell (King’s College London) and Prof. Tom Louwerse (Leiden University) in this project. The team will be funded for a period of two years and three months with a total of € 800,000. Zittel’s team is one out of 16 research teams that successfully applied for the fifth ORA Open Call (more than 300 pre-proposals were submitted in a two-stage process; 63 teams were invited to submit full proposals). ORA, which stands for Open Research Area, is run by the national research organizations of France (ANR), Germany (DFG), the Netherlands (NWO), and United Kingdom (ESRC).

Harrison Begay, Fire Dance, Gouache on board, c. early 1990, 18" x 30"
Harrison Begay or Haskay Yahne Yah (Warrior Who Walked Up to His Enemy) was born in White Cone, Arizona on the Navajo Reservation in 1917 or sometime around then. He's never been sure about the date. His parents were Black Rock and Zonnie Tachinie Begay. His mother died when hewas seven, and soon after he was sent off to government boarding school at Fort Wingate where he heard English spoken for the first time. After a year he ran away from school to return home where he studied by himself and herded sheep. At seventeen he entered the recently founded Santa Fe Indian School and studied art under Dorothy Dunn.
Harrison Begay, Deer and Rainbow God, Gouache, 1980, 13" x 10
Until the school was founded, Navajo artists had no tribal tradition of painting, so what Harrison learned was later considered "studio style". Students were taught to place smoothly brushed forms flat on the picture plane. In 1936 Begay painted Navajo Horse Race at the school and sold the piece to Charles Mc C. Reeve for twelve dollars. It is now in the Southwest Museum connection in Los Angeles.

When he graduated from Santa Fe Indian School as salutatorian in 1939, Harrison went on to study architecture at Black Mountain College in North Carolina on a scholarship from the Indian Commission. He also created murals for the WPA during the Depression before spending three years in the Army during World War II. He served under General Dwight Eisenhower and also participated in the Battle of Normandy.
When he was released from the Army, Harrison spent a brief time in Colorado studying with Gerald Curtis Delano. He received a purchase award at the first Indian Annual Painting Competition at the Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Upon returning home to Arizona in 1947 he resumed his painting career in earnest and eventually became one of the most famous of all Navajo painters. He created Tewa Enterprises during the 1950s in Santa Fe to make and sell reproductions of his and others artwork. Collectors enjoyed his subtle watercolors and silkscreened prints. Since he spent somuch time off the reservation growing up, he learned much later about traditional Navajo ceremonies from a book by artist Don Perceval. This deepened understanding of his own heritage greatly influenced Begay's work from that time on.

In 1954 Harrison was awarded the Palmes de Academiques, a special commendation from the French government, for his contributions to the arts. Much recognition and many awards were presented Begay over the years. In 1995 he was awarded the Native American Masters Award from the Heard Museum in Phoenix, Arizona. Works from his 75-year career are in permanent museum collections around the world including the following:
National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum
The Museum of Western Art
Desert Caballeros Western Museum
Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art
Great Plains Art Museum
Philbrook Museum of Art
Southwest Museum, Pasadena
Still painting in his 90s, Begay was awarded the 2003 Lifetime Achievement Award by the Southwestern Association of Indian Artists, organizers of the annual Santa Fe Indian Art Market. His portrait was featured in the Smithsonian Institute's Museum of the American Indian in 2004.

BESSA, BGESS celebrate milestone anniversaries
The Black Engineering and Science Student Association (BESSA), and Black Graduate Engineering and Science Students (BGESS), celebrated their 55th and 35th anniversaries, respectively. The anniversary celebration and community building event, which took place on February 11, 2023, was hosted by the Black Engineering and Science Alumni Club (BESAC), and began with a daytime speaker series, followed by a reception at Alumni House. Several EECS alumni were in attendance, such as UC Davis Chancellor and EECS distinguished alumni Gary May (M.S.’88, Ph.D. ’91 EECS) and Valerie Taylor (Ph.D. ’91 EECS), director of the mathematics and computer science division at Argonne National Lab. Other notable alumni who were present include Marie-Ange Eyoum Tagne (M.S. ’03, Ph.D. ’06 EECS), head of product at Yahoo! and Omoju Miller (Ph.D. ‘16 CS Education), CEO and founder of Fimio; Hakim Weatherspoon (Ph.D. ‘06 CS), now a professor of computer science at Cornell, participated in a Black faculty panel. The celebration also marked the 5th anniversary of BESAC. “Being with my fellow BESSA peers and hearing the inspirational stories of BESSA alumni was a very emotional experience for me,” said Bridget Agyare, who is an undergraduate EECS major and BESSA board member. “These successful and distinguished alumni were just like us– they invested time and effort into BESSA’s legacy, they were passionate about STEM, and they were leaders in their community– and seeing what they have achieved reassures me that one day our hard work will pay off and we will succeed as well."

Hannah Joo receives Brooke Owens Fellowship
Hannah Joo, an undergraduate student studying computer science and cognitive science at Berkeley, has won a Brooke Owens Fellowship. Along with 47 undergraduate women and gender minorities from all over the world, Hannah will receive “space and aviation internships, senior mentorships, and a lifelong professional network.” In her freshman year, Hannah joined Space Enterprise at Berkeley, a student-run rocket team. With limited engineering and coding experience, she found her passion at the intersection of avionics and computer science, culminating in a summer internship with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory last year. Now in her 3rd-year, Hannah will intern with SpaceX. The Brooke Owens Fellowship was founded in 2016 to honor the memory of D. Brooke Owens, a beloved industry pioneer, and accomplished pilot, who passed away at age 35 after battling cancer.

EECS graduate students turn e-waste into art
EECS graduate students use leftover printed circuit boards (PCBs) to create art. The result is a beautiful Cal EECS bear in Berkeley blue, centered over the letters E-E-C-S in green, all made up of PCBs, on a towering six by seven plywood base held together by very-high-bond (VHB) double-sided tape. Rahul Iyer, an EECS Ph.D. student advised by EE Prof. Pilawa-Podgurski, had the idea over Thanksgiving break to make use of what would otherwise be e-waste. With the help of Rod Bayliss III, Maggie Blackwell, Sahana Krishnan and Nathan Brooks, all Ph.D. students advised by Pilawa, they set out to repurpose the leftover PCBs, first by printing the silhouette of the Cal bear on a mounting board, tracing the outline of the bear, and then using VHB to tape the PCBs onto the mounting board, filling in the outline. “It was a great bonding activity over Thanksgiving break, especially recollecting projects and past memories when we came across some of the boards,” said Rahul. “I’m so glad I had an opportunity to share in this creative endeavor with my peers. Looking forward to another project in a few years when we collect more PCBs!”

CS Kickstart thrives amid return to in-person outreach
Now in its 11th consecutive year, CS Kickstart held its one-week computer science immersion program earlier this month, ushering in over 95 attendees to the program, a record turnout. The program is designed to introduce female-identifying first-year students to computer science at Berkeley and aims to add more diversity to the field. Completely student-run, they host workshops in Python, web development, electrical engineering, and data science; panel discussions featuring current Ph.D. students and faculty speakers like CS Prof. John DeNero; field trips, like a community-building experience with the Oakland Athletics, and tours, panels, and Q&A sessions with industry partners, such as SAP Academy and Stitch Fix. “It was amazing to see CS Kickstart held in person again this year and with more students than in previous years!” said EECS Director of Student Diversity, Audrey Sillers.

Roberto Di Matteo was confirmed as the new manager of Aston Villa on 2nd June 2016.
Di Matteo was previously the manager of Chelsea in the Barclays Premier League where he won the Champions League and FA Cup.
Roberto has an academic background, having built on a business studies degree gained in his native Switzerland by taking an MBA course at London's European School of Economics.
Born of Italian parents, he joined Lazio in 1993 following a Swiss title success early in his career. After moving to Stamford Bridge three years later - for a then Chelsea record fee of £4.9m - Di Matteo scored the fastest ever goal in a Wembley final. He fired home from 30 yards after just 43 seconds as Chelsea went on to beat Middlesbrough in the 1997 FA Cup final.
The following season, Roberto helped Chelsea land the UEFA Cup Winners Cup and the League Cup (in which he again scored in the final).
He conjured up yet another Wembley winner in 2000 as Chelsea beat Aston Villa to lift the FA Cup again.
Di Matteo was forced into premature retirement just two years later at the age of 31 after suffering a horrific triple leg fracture. His six years at Chelsea spanned 175 appearances and 26 goals. He also made 34 appearances for Italy.
He began preparing for management while still enjoying an exalted playing career.
The former Chelsea and Italy midfielder previously took charge of Milton Keynes Dons in July, 2008 and led the club to the League One play-offs in his first season.
Di Matteo inherited a side new to a higher level following promotion-winning Paul Ince's departure for Blackburn. But he showed the value of a far-sighted approach - having advanced through the UEFA coaching licences while still plying his trade on the field - by guiding MK to third place, just two points behind Peterborough. They lost to Scunthorpe on penalties in the play-off semi-finals, but Roberto's team had been praised throughout the campaign for the quality of their football.
He was then confirmed as the new manager of The Baggies on June 30, 2009.
In his first season, he would enjoy great success, by leading the club to promotion to the Premier League by finishing second in the Championship.
West Brom and Di Matteo enjoyed their start to a new campaign as he was named Premier League manager of the month for September, which included a memorable win at Arsenal.
Despite winning promotion to the Barclays Premier League and the club not being in the bottom three during his time in charge, in the 2010/11 campaign, the board decided to part with Roberto in February 2011.
He then returned to Stamford Bridge before the start of the 2011/12 campaign initially as assistant to Andre Villas-Boas.
Di Matteo was then made interim coach following his departure in March and remarkably went onto lead the club to Champions League and FA Cup Final victories. Having later been confirmed as the club's permanent manager, he remained at Chelsea until November 2012. Following his outstanding success with Chelsea he received the LMA Special Merit Award at the end of the 2012/13 season.
There followed a short spell at Schalke 04 in Germany, before returning to England with Aston Villa.

Technology has made great advances in electronic device-speed, but optical devices operate in the time-domain unreachable by electronics. Optical devices have no competition in the time domain less than 1 picosecond. Photonic devices can switch and process light signals without converting them into electronic form. Major advantages of these devices are speed and conservation of bandwidth. Switching is performed through changes in refractive index of the material that are proportional to the light intensity. This particular feature is the result of third-order dielectric susceptibility, c(3), or “optical Kerr susceptibility”, which is related to the nonlinear part of the total refractive index. Future prospects in photonic switching and information processing critically depend on the progress towards improved photonic materials with significantly enhanced Kerr susceptibilities. Optically isotropic materials like silica glasses that have inversion symmetry intrinsically possess some third-order optical nonlinearities at l = 1.06 µm. This, combined with extremely low absorption coefficient of silica glasses, allows all-optical switching between two waveguides embedded in a silica fibre simply by controlling the optical pulse intensity. Plasmonic nanoparticles in dielectric media lead to the generation of surface-plasmons in the neighbourhood of dielectric surfaces, resulting in a local evanescent field that experiences dielectric confinement. These field affects the coherent oscillation of dipoles in the conduction band thus enhancing the effective third-order nonlinearity. The strength of the nonlinearity is influenced by controlling the “surface plasmon resonance” (SPR) band by tuning the size and shape of the nanomaterials.
The incorporation of metal nano-colloids in glasses have been found to induce desired third-order optical non-linearities in the composite at wavelengths very close to that of the characteristic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) of the metal clusters. Ion implantation is a potential method for inducing colloid formation at a high local concentration unachievable by chemical doping or melt-glass fabrication process and for confining the nonlinearities to specific regions in various host matrices. Metal-ion induced colloid generation in bulk silica glasses has shown that these nanocluster–glass composites under favourable circumstances have significant enhancement of c(3) with picosecond to femtosecond temporal responses. The extraordinary achievements in developing such novel photonic materials have opened the way for advances in photonic devices, such as all-optical switching, coupled waveguides as a directional coupler, etc. The talk will address on the ion-beam synthesis of metal-glass nanocomposites for photonic applications.

How Taylor Swift helps people worldwide
By The Borgen Project on February 1, 2023 Spotted
BATUMI, Georgia — Taylor Swift is a force to be reckoned with. She has sold more than 200 million records worldwide, won 11 Grammy Awards and is the most streamed woman on Spotify. That is not all, she is also an altruist who donates money to charities worldwide and helps fans in need.
Worldwide Organizations Swift Has Been a Part Of
In September 2015, Swift donated money that she made from her wildlife-themed music video “Wildest Dreams” to the African Parks Foundation of America (APFA). The organization’s main goals include the long-term maintenance of protected areas, the abolition of poaching, community outreach, sustainable tourism and the preservation and protection of wildlife in Africa.
APFA offers thousands of people in Africa job opportunities. It impacts the economy by investing money in tourism and businesses that are compatible with conservation, with all profits going back into the parks and communities, promoting prosperity, reducing poverty and lessening the park’s reliance on donor funding. In 2017, the African Parks Foundation of America spent $8.54 million on its employees’ salaries. Tourism earnings from parks generated more than $3.9 million, which is 24% more than it was in 2016. In 2017, 37,284 people visited Akagera in Rwanda which led to an increase in the park’s earnings to $1.6 million. African Parks provided $43.5 million in 2017 in conservation efforts throughout Africa.
Taylor Swift helps people worldwide by working in collaboration with UNICEF. She has participated in UNICEF’s Tap Project Initiative. The initiative distributes bottled water from famous people’s houses through an auction. With tremendous help from celebrities, the program has raised more than $2.5 million for people worldwide who do not have access to clean water. Additionally, in 2015, Taylor Swift contributed her autographed guitar to the animal rights organization PETA’s 35th-anniversary online auction. All the money from the auction went straight toward supporting PETA’s mission to save animals.
How Taylor Swift Uses Her Voice to Help Others
Being one of the biggest stars in music, Taylor Swift continued using her talent and passion for performing to support charities and raise money. For instance, in 2009 she sang at BBC’s Children in Need concert and raised £13,000 for the cause. BBC’s Children in Need concert’s goal is to raise money for disadvantaged kids with help from famous singers. The same year the Sydney Sound Relief Concert was organized to raise money for disaster relief after Australia was hit by a series of floods and bushfires. Swift was among the celebrities who performed at the event. The fundraising total exceeded $3.3 million, according to Money Inc. That money went straight to the Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal.
COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund
In 2020 Taylor Swift helps people worldwide by participating in a benefit concert One World: Together At Home. People around the globe watched this virtual concert and it received donations for the COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund. The fund’s main goals were “mobilizing private funds on a worldwide scale to remain ahead of the threat” and providing a quick method to send resources where they were most necessary. Throughout the first year, the fund raised $243 million.
The fund’s top priority was to establish a sustainable global supply chain. In six weeks it raised $201 million which allowed World Health Organization (WHO) to create and run the world’s largest supply chain during the pandemic, made primarily to support low- and middle-income countries. The fund delivered around 250 million PPE items and essential medical supplies to more than 150 countries as well as technical support to hundreds of laboratories.
According to the COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund website, in December 2020 WHO developed the Emergency Medical Teams Regional Training and Simulation Center in Ethiopia to teach frontline workers across Africa. Ten Emergency Medical Team network partners assisted 22 countries and trained 5,334 health care workers in managing critical COVID-19 cases.
In addition, the WHO has cooperated with front-line civil society organizations in 25 countries across all WHO regions. A few examples: WHO delivered emergency water resources and created water disinfection projects in Ecuador. In Pakistan WHO constructed washing stations in medical centers. And in India WHO designed a teacher training program that was centered around hygiene.
Taylor Swift contributes to charities mainly on a private basis. However, the singer’s charitable work has received widespread acclaim. In 2012 she accepted The Big Help Award from Michelle Obama at the Nickelodeon Kid’s Choice Awards. Swift also landed in first place on the DoSomething “Gone Good” list for 2015, which recognizes contributions to charity from well-known people, according to Money Inc.
Taylor Swift helps people worldwide by using her platform to raise awareness and inspire fans to donate to different charities and organizations. It goes to show how one voice can make a big difference in the world.

In recent weeks, millions of computers have been hijacked by malicious code. According to a recent survey, the MS Blaster worm alone infected over 30% of companies with average damage of $475,000. Why is malicious code causing more and more harm to our Internet? How bad will it get? Who is behind it? What can we do about it?
Ames Cornish is a security consultant, Board Director for the FBI-sponsored Infragard, and Founder and Co-chair of the Internet Security special interest group. Mr. Cornish will lead a discussion of the malicious code problem and several proposals for how to fix it: Is it the responsibility of OS vendors? Security companies? Law enforcement? Individual home users? ISP's? All of these groups have been suggested, but none has stepped forward and solved the problem. Come and discuss the technology, business dynamics, and public policy issues that can help us fight back.
ABOUT THE "POWER PUB"
The "Power Pub" is a new version of the World Internet Center's traditional Pub evening. In responding to requests to lengthen the presentation and discussion time, we have evolved the "Pub Talk" to an hour-long "Pub Exchange" which will be a highly interactive discussion led, this month, by our expert Pub Master, Mr. Ames Cornish.
The Power Pub begins at 5:00 p.m. with networking and refreshments (wine, beer, sushi, etc.) The Pub Exchange begins at 5:30 p.m. and will wrap up at 6:30 p.m., allowing for an additional 30 minutes of networking. There will be a $15 charge to attend.

Mr. Cornish holds bachelor's and master's degrees in theoretical physics from Harvard University and an MBA from Stanford University.
In the second session in a three-part series on commercial usage of sensor nets, this Smart Items Business Forum Working Group will focus on the viability of battery-based, low-powered radios in supporting communication for industrial control applications within the petroleum industry.
The academic and industrial research area of Sensor Networks covers a wide range of technology issues. One outgrowth of this research is commercial short-range battery-powered radios that can provide low-bandwidth data streams across multiple nodes of an ad-hoc network. This technology approach has an obvious contribution when conventional communication structures are not possible, for example on battlefields and on the surface of Mars. Some proponents of this technology have argued that it can greatly reduce the cost of providing data connectivity in industrial control situations. If data connectivity is substantially cheaper, then it should open up more sensor and control applications that can lead to overall process savings, improved reliability, reduced emissions, and so forth. Around these new control and monitoring applications new business processes will be needed and new enterprise-scale applications.
Petroleum processing and distribution is an example of a high value industry that has processing plants and pipelines spread over large geographical areas in very harsh environments. The cost of providing data connectivity is considered very high. This Working Group session will focus on the technology requirements for out-door control and monitoring capabilities in the oil industry.
The Working Group will address three major areas:
1. What are the characteristics of modern, current data communication and industrial control technologies used in refineries and along pipelines?
What level of reliability is required and under what operating conditions?
What are the minimum and maximum temperature conditions? - What are the design parameters for electrical noise and lightening strikes?
What are the constraints on operating electronic devices in corrosive and combustible environments?
Which technologies (e.g. dedicated copper, fiber optic, data-over-power wiring, or radio) are successfully used for data communication in these environments?
What are the approximate costs and limitations of existing methods?
What are the regulatory requirements for electronic technology deployed in these environments?
2. If there were a dramatic cost reduction in providing safe, reliable data communication for petroleum industry environments, then how would it be deployed?
Would it simply replace existing methods in new construction or would there be new applications with significant economic value?
What are these potential new control and monitoring applications?
3. What developments of existing sensor net data communications technology would be needed for deployment in oil industry environments?
Are short range (~10M), battery-powered radios applicable for this environment?
What advantages and drawbacks would come from an ad hoc radio network approach?
What are the most promising radio technologies (e.g. Wi-Fi, BlueTooth, 802.15.4, other)?
We expect to have several contributors from the petroleum industry - experts in industrial controls - share their knowledge of what is used today and what the industry needs. Working Group participants will discuss the viability of current technologies, as well as the benefits to the petroleum industry resulting from the deployment of radio-based sensor nets.
Note: In order to keep the discussion focused on potential new applications and data sources, we will exclude certain relatively established applications and technologies. For example, applications of transponders and geographical location and tracking technology have been covered widely in the marketplace.
To register for this SIBF Working Group, please submit your name, title, telephone number, and a short bio to:

There is no fee to attend, however, as this in an invitation-only session limited to 18 participants, the commitment to participate is strongly requested.
On Monday, September 15, the World Internet Center welcomed a group from the "Okinawa Information Technology Development" project. Mr. Ryo Tengan, Chief of Business Support and IT Promotion Division of the Okinawa Industry Promotion Public Corporation, led the group which spent several hours with Dr. Susan Duggan, the Center's CEO, and with Mr. Les Laky, Co-founder of the Fiber Internet Center (http://www.fiberinternetcenter.com). They explored the potential of developing a high tech region, connecting up over 57 islands comprising Okinawa through business links, fiber and wireless connectivity. The interplay between strategic knowledge exchange throughout Okinawa and Japan complemented the bits and bytes discussion around the challenge of bringing broadband connectivity to the islands.
In a time when the Silicon Valley seems slowed by the burdens of economic inertia, the desires of other regions around the world wishing to develop their own business centers for innovation encouraged and impressed the team from the World Internet Center.

Deftones and Incubus team up for summer tour – News
Deftones and Incubus team up for summer tour
Alternative Rock heroes, Incubus and Deftones, will set out on a co-headlining summer tour visiting nearly 20 cities throughout the United States with more to be announced. The tour, produced by Live Nation, will kick off on July 22 at the DTE Energy Music Theatre in Clarkston, Mich. and take the two bands to New York City, Chicago, Boston, Houston, Dallas and more before wrapping up on August 30 in San Diego, Cali. Death From Above 1979 and The Bots will join the tour as special guests.
Multi-platinum alternative rock heavyweights Incubus recently signed with Island Records and released the 4-song EP entitled Trust Fall (Side A). After nearly two years off the grid conceptualizing and recording new material, Incubus, under the management of Johnny Wright at Wright Entertainment Group, has its sights set on a “non-traditional” album in 2015. Founding member Mike Einziger told Billboard.com that although the band didn’t have “any plans of making this record” the new music is “pretty indicative of where we are now. This is what the band sounds like in 2015.” Twenty years since the release of their indie debut album in 1995, Fungus Amongus. Incubus went on to release six studio albums (the last three produced by Brendan O’Brien), achieving RIAA Gold, Platinum and multi-Platinum success; as well as five live albums. Four of their songs have hit #1 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart, including “Drive” (2000, also Top 10 Pop), “Megalomaniac” (2003), “Anna Molly” (2006), and “Love Hurts” (2008).
Since Deftones’ inception, the multi-Platinum, Grammy Award®-winning alternative rock band from Sacramento, Cali. have quietly been pursuing two paths, delivering songs defined by churning, double-fisted aggression while also testing the boundaries of music by incorporating elements of psychedelia and shoegaze. The Los Angeles Times wrote of Deftones, “Hard rock thrives on conflict and chaos, and no band has found more beauty and soaring aggression within those ingredients than Deftones.” The band’s seventh studio album Koi No Yokan, released in November 2012, spawned two Top Five hits at Rock radio (“Tempest” and “Swerve City”). Koi No Yokan met with critical acclaim with Revolver naming it their “Album of the Year” and SPIN selecting it as one of its Top 50 Albums of 2012. The New York Post also hailed it as “one of the best rock albums of the year.” Deftones have released seven albums to date and have sold over 10 million albums worldwide. Vocalist/guitarist Chino Moreno, guitarist Stephen Carpenter, keyboardist/samplist Frank Delgado, drummer Abe Cunningham and bassist Sergio Vega, are currently working on their eighth studio album to be released in 2015.
Globally revered and highly influential dance-punk duo Death From Above 1979 are touring in support The Physical World released by Last Gang Records/Warner Bros. Records this past September.
Produced by D. Sardy (Red Hot Chili Peppers, LCD Soundsystem, Wolfmother, Oasis), The Physical World comes a full ten years after the release of the band’s universally acclaimed debut album, You’re A Woman, I’m A Machine, which made Jesse F. Keeler(bass, synths, backing vocals) and Sebastien Grainger(vocals and drums), an underground / overground sensation. DFA 1979 broke up in 2006 while the first album and subsequent remix album continued to sell inexplicably. They decided to reunite in 2011 and began to perform live picking up where they left off without missing a beat. Their rabid cult has only continued to amass just as inexplicably. “Returning a decade later, they’re still crushing violent, angular riffs, but they’re also writing catchier songs. A throwback to a throwback that better the second time around.” – Rolling Stone Magazine

Originally posted on ArmyRecognition
Citing the French Minister of Defense, Sébastien Lecornu, two batteries of Crotale NG air defense missile systems have been delivered to the Ukrainian armed forces out of the twelve owned by the French Air Force. France will also deliver two LRU Multiple Launch Rocket Systems to Ukraine to offer long-range artillery support to the Ukrainian army.
According to information from the Military Balance 2021, France has a total of 13 LRU rocket launchers while the French Air Force has 24 Crotale used to conduct short-range air defense.
At the same time, the French Parliament approved a budget of $200 million for Ukraine that can be used to order military equipment produced by the French defense industry such as the Bastion wheeled armored vehicles or floating bridges.
The French Minister of Defense also confirmed that 2,000 Ukrainian soldiers will be trained in France in the framework of the European mission EUMAM (European Union Assistance Mission Ukraine). To date, 400 Ukrainian soldiers have already been trained by France to operate the military equipment delivered by France.
Currently, France has already supplied Ukraine with 18 CAESAR 155mm self-propelled howitzers, 15 TRF1 155mm towed howitzers, 60 VAB wheeled armored vehicles, TRM 2000 and GBC 180 trucks, Peugeot P4 4x4 tactical vehicles, MISTRAL portable air defense systems, MILA anti-tank weapon systems, FGM-148 Javelin, small arms, and ammunition.

The LRU is a modernized version of the American M270 equipped with a new firing control system and able to fire new types of guided rockets. According to open-source information, a total of 13 LRUs are currently in service with the French Army.
The LRU design consists of two main parts with the crew cab at the front and the launcher pod mounted at the rear of the tracked chassis. The rocket launcher station includes two pods of 6 rockets. The vehicle can fire the new M31 GPS-guided rocket which has a circular error probability of fewer than 10 m and a maximum firing range of 70 km.

In the French army, the Crotale NG is based on a 6x6 trailer which is equipped with a weapon station armed with two blocks of four ready-to-fire container launchers that can fire the VT1 missile designed to destroy aerial targets at short range. It is equipped with a multi-sensor suite, including passive electro-optics and radar with built-in Electronic Counter Countermeasures (ECCM) to engage airborne targets under adverse conditions of dense electronic warfare and hostile battlefield environments of nuclear, biological, and chemical warfare (NBC) and smoke and dust screens.
The Crotale NG missile is able to intercept aerial threats including tactical missiles, helicopters, UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Systems), and aircraft deploying high-maneuvering, low-level stand-off weapons. The missile has a maximum firing range of 11 km.

Seven Defendants Indicted For Drug Trafficking In The South Lake Tahoe and Sacramento Areas
U.S. Attorney's Office, Eastern District of California
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A federal grand jury returned two indictments on Thursday charging a total of seven defendants with various drug-trafficking crimes, including conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and heroin, as well as multiple counts of distribution of methamphetamine and heroin, U.S. Attorney Phillip A. Talbert announced.
Defendants Wendy Labuda, 64; Epifanio Ramirez, 47; Sarah Anderson, 32; Fabian Gomez, 33, and Joaleen Rogers, 53, all of South Lake Tahoe; and William Owen, 47, of Sacramento, were charged in one indictment with counts specific to each defendant. A separate indictment charged Robert Choate, 38, of South Lake Tahoe, with distribution of methamphetamine and heroin, as part of the same investigation that led to the charges against the other six defendants.
According to court documents, between August 2020 and May 2022, the defendants worked together as part of overlapping efforts to sell methamphetamine and heroin in and around South Lake Tahoe. Over those two years, the defendants sold drugs to multiple confidential informants. While most of the defendants’ distribution happened in and around South Lake Tahoe, the investigation uncovered that some of the drug supply was coming from Sacramento.
These charges arise from Operation Bear Trap, which began in 2020 to address the growing problem of methamphetamine distribution in South Lake Tahoe. Four additional defendants were charged last August with multiple drug and gun trafficking crimes as part of the same operation. Over the course of the operation, law enforcement agencies have interdicted methamphetamine, heroin, and numerous firearms, including “ghost” pistols and assault rifles (firearms manufactured without serial numbers, making them harder for law enforcement to trace).
To date, 36 individuals have been arrested in connection to Operation Bear Trap in California and Nevada on state and federal charges related to drug and firearms trafficking.
For all defendants, any sentence would be determined at the discretion of the court after consideration of any applicable statutory factors and the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, which take into account a number of variables. The charges are only allegations; the defendants are presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
This case is the product of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the South Lake Tahoe Police Department, the El Dorado County Sheriff’s Office, the El Dorado County District Attorney’s Office, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office. Assistant U.S. Attorney James Conolly is prosecuting the case.
This effort is part of an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) operation. OCDETF identifies, disrupts, and dismantles the highest-level criminal organizations that threaten the United States using a prosecutor-led, intelligence-driven, multi-agency approach. Additional information about the OCDETF Program can be found at www.justice.gov/OCDETF.

Blue Bell ordered to pay record fine of $17.25 million over listeria outbreak
Blue Bell pleaded guilty in May 2020 to two misdemeanor counts of distributing adulterated ice cream products.

HOUSTON — A federal court in Texas sentenced ice cream manufacturer Blue Bell Creameries L.P. to pay $17.25 million in criminal penalties for shipments of contaminated products linked to a 2015 listeriosis outbreak.
The U.S. Justice Department made the announcement Thursday afternoon.
[EDITOR'S NOTE: The video above above is from a report in May on a former Blue Bell executive charged with conspiracy in deadly listeria outbreak.]
The sentence, imposed by U.S. District Judge Robert Pitman in Austin, was consistent with the terms of a plea agreement previously filed in the case.
According to the Justice Department, the $17.25 million fine and forfeiture amount is the largest-ever criminal penalty following a conviction in a food safety case.
“American consumers must be able to trust that the foods they purchase are safe to eat,” Acting Assistant Attorney General Jeffrey Bossert Clark of the Justice Department’s Civil Division said. “The sentence imposed today (Thursday) sends a clear message to food manufacturers that the Department of Justice will take appropriate actions when contaminated food products endanger consumers.”
The plea agreement and criminal information filed against Blue Bell allege that the company distributed ice cream products that were manufactured under insanitary conditions and contaminated with listeria monocytogenes, in violation of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.
“The health of American consumers and the safety of our food are too important to be thwarted by the criminal acts of any individual or company,” Judy McMeekin, Pharm.D., associate commissioner for Regulatory Affairs, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, said. “Americans expect and deserve the highest standards of food safety and integrity. We will continue to pursue and bring to justice those who put the public health at risk by distributing contaminated foods in the U.S. marketplace.”

“The results of this investigation reflect the determination of the Defense Criminal Investigative Service to hold companies that sell food products to the military accountable and ensure they comply with food safety laws,” Michael Mentavlos, special agent-in-charge of the DCIS Southwest Field Office, said. “The health and safety of our service members and their dependents is of paramount importance.”
According to the plea agreement, Texas state officials notified Blue Bell in February 2015 that samples of two ice cream products from the company’s Brenham, factory tested positive for listeria monocytogenes, a dangerous pathogen that can lead to serious illness or death in vulnerable populations such as pregnant women, newborns, the elderly, and those with compromised immune systems.
The Justice Department said Blue Bell directed its delivery route drivers to remove remaining stock of the two products from store shelves, but the company did not recall the products or issue any formal communication to inform customers about the potential Listeria contamination.
Two weeks after receiving notification of the first positive Listeria tests, Texas state officials informed Blue Bell that additional state-led testing confirmed listeria in a third product. They said Blue Bell again chose not to issue any formal notification to customers regarding the positive tests.
Blue Bell’s customers included military installations.
In March 2015, tests conducted by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) linked the strain of listeria in one of the Blue Bell ice cream products to a strain that sickened five patients at a Kansas hospital with listeriosis, the severe illness caused by ingestion of listeria-contaminated food.
The FDA, CDC, and Blue Bell all issued public recall notifications on March 13, 2015.
Investigators said subsequent tests confirmed listeria contamination in a product made at another Blue Bell facility in Broken Arrow, Okla., which led to a second recall announcement on March 23, 2015.
According to the plea agreement with the company, FDA inspections in March and April 2015 revealed sanitation issues at the Brenham and Broken Arrow facilities, including problems with the hot water supply needed to properly clean equipment and deteriorating factory conditions that could lead to insanitary water dripping into product mix during the manufacturing process.
Blue Bell temporarily closed all of its plants in late April 2015 to clean and update the facilities.
Since re-opening its facilities in late 2015, Blue Bell has taken significant steps to enhance sanitation processes and enact a program to test products for listeria prior to shipment.
Trial Attorneys Patrick Hearn and Matt Lash of the Civil Division’s Consumer Protection Branch prosecuted the case with assistance from Shannon Singleton and Michael Varrone of the FDA’s Office of Chief Counsel.
The criminal investigation was conducted by the FDA’s Office of Criminal Investigations and the Department of Defense Criminal Investigative Service.

Interviewer Thuesen, Sarah Caroline.
Abstract This is the second of two interviews with Ted Fillette, a southern lawyer who began working with the Legal Aid Society of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, in the early 1970s. The interview begins with Fillette's assessment of grassroots activism within Charlotte, North Carolina, neighborhoods in reaction to urban renewal in the mid-1970s. He describes how residents of the Biddleville neighborhood organized with the help of the Legal Aid Society of Mecklenburg County and explains how plans to demolish the run-down neighborhood were revised to provide better public housing for the existing residents. Fillette paints a bleak picture of life for low-income tenants living in Charlotte during the 1970s: when he arrived in 1973, low-income residents had no legal protections requiring that landlords repair damaged property. Subject to substandard living conditions and given no notice for evictions (which were often retaliatory in nature), low-income people in Charlotte found themselves victims of urban renewal programs. Moreover, federal welfare programs such as AFDC (Aid to Families with Dependent Children) and Medicaid often failed to provide relief within the parameters of federal regulatory processes. Fillette devotes considerable attention in this interview to a discussion of the legal and political measures taken to ameliorate these kinds of conditions. In so doing, he describes how court cases such as Alexander v. Hill and Taylor v. Hill of the 1970s aimed to provide medical care for the mothers of unborn children and to ensure that the needy would receive welfare payments in a timely manner. In addition, he describes how he helped lobby the North Carolina General Assembly to adopt the Residential Rental Agreements Act. Fillette describes the staunch resistance the advocates for welfare rights faced in the General Assembly, drawing attention to the adept political maneuvering it took to ensure the act's passage in 1977. Fillette also discusses how housing advocacy changed in the late 1980s and describes his work with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Housing Partnership (founded in 1988), which sought to meld business and leadership in order to encourage private investment in public housing so that the community was no longer reliant on federal and state subsidies. The interview concludes with Fillette's assessment of continuing disparities in social class in Mecklenburg County in the early twenty-first century. While acknowledging that marked progress had been made, Fillette worries that continuing wage gaps and inequality in public schools are indicative of continued tensions.

Luke Bryan Just Scored His 30th No. 1 Hit With ‘Country On’
Luke Bryan has hit a new career milestone after securing another No. 1 hit with his latest single "Country On." That brings his overall total of chart-topping tracks to 30.
Bryan was able to celebrate the moment with his team while in Las Vegas for his concert residency at Resorts World.
"30 #1 songs at country radio is really crazy to hear," he writes on social media.
"I’m blessed to have this career and can’t thank everyone involved enough for supporting my dreams. 'Hey, hey, USA! We ain’t seen our better days' is a come together moment. I couldn’t have hand picked a better 30th. Love y’all."
The single — written by Mark Nesler, David Frasier, Mitch Oglesby and Styles Haury — reached the top of the Mediabase charts. Jeff Stevens produced the track alongside Jody Stevens, and Sarah Buxton provided backup vocals. Bryan released "Country On" on July 1, 2022.
Although he did not write the song himself, the star says being able to both write hits and find hits is the secret to his success.
"I looked at all my heroes — guys like George Strait and Brooks & Dunn — all of my heroes wrote songs and they found songs, too," Bryan tells MusicRow Magazine. "Somewhere in Nashville, there's young songwriters writing right now with a fresh approach and a new way to say stuff. For me, it's always fun to really open up to the whole town to try to find new songs. The little nuances of production in their demos."
Bryan's first No. 1 dates back to 2009 with "Do I," which he wrote with Lady A's Dave Haywood and Charles Kelley. MusicRow reports that the "One Margarita" singer has co-written 12 of his 30 No. 1s, including "Rain Is a Good Thing", "I Don't Want This Night to End" and "Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye."
Bryan has 17 multi-week chart toppers, including "Most People Are Good", "Knockin' Boots" and "Waves." Jordan Davis also featured the Georgia native on "Buy Dirt" which reach No. 1 earlier this year.
The country megastar and five-time Entertainer of the Year is expected to release more new music in 2023. It's shaping up to be a busy year for the hitmaker: He'll Bryan will kick things off with his annual Crash My Playa festival in January and will continue his Las Vegas residency, with more dates scheduled in February through April.
In addition, Bryan will return to his judge's chair on a new season of American Idol, which premieres Feb. 19.

D’Angelo Back in the Studio Recording New Album
It seems as though D’Angelo has returned to the studio to work on a new album.
According to Billboard.com, a studio session took place in New York late last night with two longtime D’Angelo collaborators, Roots drummer Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson and bassist Pino Palladino, as well as producer/engineer Russell Elevado, according to posts from Questlove on Twitter.
“Most people use midnight as a time to sleep. others are working on their 11 year followup. this of course being hour number one,” tweeted the drummer.
The album, which was at one point provisionally titled “James River,” is being eyed for release before the end of the year through J Records, according to a Billboard source. It will be D’Angelo’s follow-up to the 2000 album “Voodoo,” which won the 2001 Grammy for best R&B album and has sold 1.7 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
Questlove and Palladino later backed D’Angelo on an acclaimed tour in support of the album.
Billboard reports:
The new project has been plagued by long breaks in recording and other delays, and many collaborators have come and gone. Last year, producer Mark Ronson told Billboard.com he was about to hit the studio with D’Angelo, but it is unknown if any of his work will make the final cut. Prince, Raphael Saadiq, John Mayer, Cee Lo Green and Roy Hargrove have also been mentioned as contributors at various times during the process.
Since the release of “Voodoo,” D’Angelo has endured a serious car accident and arrests for drug possession and solicitation. In lieu of new music of his own, he’s made sporadic guest appearances on albums by Ronson, Common, Snoop Dogg, Q-Tip and the late J Dilla. His last release under his own name was the 2008 Virgin compilation “The Best So Far,” which rounds up highlights from “Voodoo” and its 1995 predecessor “Brown Sugar,” along with soundtrack contributions.

Each winner received a $10,000 grant and will have their films shown for twelve months on JetBlue’s seatback entertainment systems under the “Gotham Selects” movie category and on Focus Features digital streaming platforms. Throughout 2023, winning filmmakers will also receive ongoing mentorship and workshopping opportunities from The Gotham.
“Covering a broad range of genres and new subjects, the wildly imaginative work from these incredible up and coming talents assures me that the future of film is in good hands.” said Jeffrey Sharp, Executive Director of The Gotham Film & Media Institute. “Inclusive mentorship and early career support are pillars of The Gotham community and we relish the opportunity to help young filmmakers find their footing in this industry.

THE VOICE -- "Knockout Reality" -- Pictured: Snoop Dogg -- (Photo by: Trae Patton/NBC)
Multi-platinum artist, actor, philanthropist and entertainment icon Snoop Dogg will serve as Mega Mentor on Season 20 of NBC’s four-time Emmy Award-winning musical competition series, “The Voice.”
Snoop Dogg joins superstar coaches Kelly Clarkson, Nick Jonas, John Legend and Blake Shelton to mentor the remaining artists who have made it through the Battle Rounds, as each team prepares for the Knockouts, beginning Monday, April 19 (8-10 p.m. ET/PT).
During the Knockout Rounds, artists are once again paired against a teammate, but select their own song to perform individually while their direct competitor watches and waits. Drawing from his unique experience in navigating the music and entertainment industry as a renowned rapper, producer and performer, Snoop Dogg will impart a new and fresh perspective to help the artists craft their performances. Coaches alone choose the winner to advance from their team. Each coach has one steal in the Knockouts.
Additionally, the four artists that were saved by their individual coaches during the Battle Rounds will compete in the Four-Way Knockout. Each of the four artists will receive individualized coaching and rehearsals with their coach and Snoop Dogg in preparation for the Four-Way Knockout. However, the winner will ultimately be chosen by America. At the top of the final Knockouts episode, voting will open for America to choose which of the four artists moves forward in the competition after their performances. Then, at the beginning of the first Live Show, host Carson Daly will reveal which of the four artists was voted through by America, and that artist will continue to the Live Shows with their original team.

Home/HVAC/North America Hvac Tools Market – Progress, Tendencies, Covid-19 Affect, And Forecasts (2023
North America Hvac Tools Market – Progress, Tendencies, Covid-19 Affect, And Forecasts (2023
Daily SF News1 week ago
The North American HVAC equipment market is expected to register a CAGR of 7.10% during the forecast period. Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are widely used throughout North America due to the numerous benefits of HVAC systems, particularly energy saving techniques.
NEW YORK, March 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report, “North America HVAC Equipment Market – Growth, Trends, Covid-19 Impact, And Forecasts (2023-2028)” – https:// www.reportlinker.com/p06417038/?utm_source=GNW
Rising disposable income, fast-growing construction activity in emerging markets, and changing weather patterns are driving the growth of the studied market. North America is witnessing a significant surge in the implementation of smart home and smart city programs, which is driving the growth of the market. The government in the region is also trying to encourage people to move to “smart cities,” which will help the market study to grow.
Increasing government support in the form of higher budget allocations aimed at promoting sustainable community development can contribute to the ever-growing commercial and industrial construction sector. In addition, increased construction activity, rapid urbanization and infrastructure reforms are leading to an increase in HVAC unit replacement, thereby driving the HVAC equipment market.
The growth of the North American HVAC equipment market is driven by increasing demand for intelligent systems and the integration of the Internet of Things (IoT), industrial automation systems, intelligent manufacturing and Industry 4.0. A significant part of the above-average market growth is expected to come from the uptick in green building construction activity. The fast-growing smart home market is expected to fuel the growth of the HVAC system market.
The high energy consumption is expected to restrain the growth of the global HVAC equipment market during the forecast period. Large companies in the commercial segment, such as retail complexes, hostels, entertainment centers and others, usually rely on centralized HVAC systems for indoor air conditioning.
The demand for environmental control during the COVID-19 crisis has increased significantly as air filtration, airflow and humidity are all three critical components to minimizing risk. For this reason, shutting down an HVAC system during such a crisis is not recommended. Filtration is critical to ensuring indoor air quality (IAQ) because if the virus can be trapped in the filtration system, it cannot make anyone in the building sick. The HVAC system is poised to play a prominent role in getting employees back to work by ensuring IAQ levels.
HVAC Equipment Market Trends in North America
Heat pumps with significant growth
A heat pump is a device that uses a compressor to extract heat from the outside and pump it in, and a circulating structure of a refrigerant in liquid or gaseous state to transfer heat from the source to the point of application. The system can efficiently cool and heat homes, shops and industrial buildings.
The market share that heat pumps are expected to capture is significant. Due to various factors including climatic conditions, equipment comfort, government tax credits, regulations, etc., the use of heat pumps has steadily increased in the North American region.
The domestic heat pump market in the United States will continue to grow steadily due to a paradigm shift towards the introduction of energy efficient products and increasing consumer spending. The business environment is stimulated by ongoing advances towards a decarbonised economy, supported by statutory energy policies and incentives. The more old buildings are repaired, the more flexibility and comfort are required. This makes the industry more dynamic.
The heat pumps are categorized based on types such as air source, water source, and ground source. The air-to-water heat pump (ASHP) draws electricity, extracts heat from the ambient air and produces hot water at up to 90 degrees. By removing heat from the surrounding air, it becomes cooler. Therefore, the need for both hot water and cold air is driving the growth of air source heat pumps.
Additionally, the major players in the HVAC market have increased their R&D investments for new, cutting-edge technological solutions that are expected to further advance the market. The North American HVAC market is expected to grow due to the increasing deployment of HVAC in smart homes.
The United States holds a large market share
The United States is one of the most important equipment markets and shows a steady growth rate. The growing construction activity, the availability of highly efficient systems and extreme climatic conditions favor a cross-plant system installation. In addition, the presence of leading manufacturers such as Carriers, Emerson Electric Co. and others complement future growth of the North American market.
Additionally, with the integration of the Internet of Things (IoT), several manufacturers have launched smart heating, air conditioning and ventilation system offerings, which in turn are driving the market growth in the United States.
To ensure a sustainable future, the United States Department of Energy (DOE) is investing heavily in improving energy efficiency standards across the country. The DOE seeks to ensure America is safe and prosperous by finding scientific and technological solutions to its environmental, energy, and nuclear problems.
In addition, the US Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) Residential Energy Consumption Survey (RECS) estimates that 76 million mainly occupied US homes (64% of the total) use central air conditioning. Around 13 million households (11%) use heat pumps for heating or cooling. By 2023, all new residential air conditioning and air source heat pump systems sold in the United States must meet the latest energy efficiency standards, driving the growth of HVAC equipment.
Additionally, new housing construction in the United States was approximately 1.36 million as of June 2022, according to the US Census Bureau. As of June 2022, there were approximately 1.55 million new privately owned housing units in the United States. This is further expected to create significant new demand for heat pumps in the country during the forecast period.
HVAC Equipment Market Competitor Analysis in North America
Competitive rivalry in the North American HVAC equipment market is high as the analyzed market is home to prominent suppliers such as Daikin, Carrier and Lennox, which hold large market shares in various segments and have access to well-established distribution networks. As the HVAC equipment industry is one of the largest markets, the existence of such a large number of major players without compromising on their market shares is sustainable. However, each supplier, particularly in the heating and cooling segments, is in fierce competition for a larger share of the market under study.
In October 2022, Carrier Corporation announced that it had expanded the capacity range of its AquaEdge 19DV water-cooled centrifugal chiller in North America. The AquaEdge19DV can now meet customer needs for larger capacity applications such as B. High-rise commercial and mixed-use buildings, large manufacturing companies and healthcare facilities with a capacity of up to 1150 tons.
In September 2022, Johnson Controls, a provider of smart, healthy and sustainable buildings, will increase the value of housing through strong financing options and rebates aimed at maximizing newly announced savings from the Inflation Reduction Act. They make energy efficiency more affordable and accessible for homeowners. With high-efficiency HVAC units from Johnson Controls, homeowners can reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 50% compared to less efficient systems.
