It appears that in the periodontitis pathogenesis, as well as TH1 and TH2 responses, IL17 causes the host immunological response to the periodontal pathogenesis.
Epistatic effect of TLR4 and IL4 genes on the risk of asthma in females.
Our results indicate that in females the TLR4 and IL4 genes show an epistatic effect on the risk of asthma. The low LPS-responsive allele G of TLR4 and high IgE production allele T of IL4 were found to be the predisposing combination. However, there was no epistatic effect on the risk of atopy.


The Brush News-Tribune and Fort Morgan Times have a new editor.
Though newer to working in print, Geoff Baumgartner is no stranger to Morgan County and no stranger to the News-Tribune and The Times.
Baumgartner comes to the News-Tribune and The Times after 11 years with Morgan County Rural Electric Association as a communications specialist and about 10 years of prior work in broadcast journalism.
"The News-Tribune is pleased to have Geoff join our team," said Publisher Brian Porter. "He brings two decades of background as a resident of Fort Morgan, with varied media experience in this market. He's well-known and well-liked in the Fort Morgan community, but also brings ties with other communities we serve.
Porter added: "The News-Tribune was fortunate to land Geoff as the leader of our editorial team."
As an opportunity at The Times and News-Tribune arose, Baumgartner said he saw it as a perfect fit. He could combine news-gathering expertise from radio broadcast journalism with his finely honed writing skills he developed in his years in communications.
For this long-term Morgan County resident, what do the News-Tribune and The Times mean for the community?
"Hopefully it's the information source that people will go to and trust," he said. "That's our goal... to give you accurate information in a timely manner that you know that you can trust."
When asked about how the newspapers may change under his leadership, Baumgartner laughed a little: "It's my second day. Give me a chance to get my feet wet, and we'll go from there," he added.
"We look for great things from Geoff," Porter said. "His passion for excellence is contagious. Geoff's desire to share the stories that matter to the community make him a great addition. We look forward to the results Geoff can bring to unite the past, present and future of the News-Tribune and The Times, and invite the community to join with Geoff in this journey."

A loan that normally begins several percentage points below a fixed rate and may change during the life of the loan. This program may allow you to buy a more expensive home.

Loans (fixed or adjustable) are available for buyers or properties that do not fit the Conventional, FHA or VA box at competitive rates and ltv's.
The most popular temporary interest rate buydown is a 2/1 buydown. This program gives the borrower a reduced interest rate for the first two years of the mortgage even though they are on a fixed rate mortgage.

Great concerts took place at the Al-Nasr Theater in Hurghada on January 22nd and as well on 25th in recognition of Police Day.
Major General Ahmed Abdullah, Red Sea Governor, attended the ceremony held at the Al-Nasr Theater in Hurghada. Many officials and community members attended to celebrate the National Day of the Province. Red Sea Governor congratulated all on the occasion, which coincided with the victorious anniversary of the armed forces against the historic Israeli aggression on Shedwan Island in Hurghada in 1970.
The concert included a number of shows to include a firework display, tanoura and other folk dances & songs that brought joy to all. A film on the commemoration of the battle of Shedwan followed after the entertainment program.
During the meeting devoted to the Red Sea National Day, which was held at the general office of the Governorate, Major General Ahmad Abdullah, Governor of the Red Sea, expressed there is an aim to turn Hurghada into the largest tourist destination in the world! He further explained that there is a huge financial funding provided by the governorate to enter into several projects on the Red Sea, from the development of slums, the rehabilitation of the sewage system and development and coordination of the internal roads in the tourist city which is soon to complete..
Red Sea Governor also made a visit to Safaga & Marsa Alam cities to inaugurate a number of mega national projects during the week's festivities.
Red Sea Governorate cooperates with the largest engineering companies to develop the city of Hurghada, especially the tourist walkway in the city, which is a popular destination of foreign guests and residents of the city.
A celebration of the 67th National Police Day in Hurghada
Major General Ahmed Abdullah, Red Sea Governor, congratulated Major General Ashraf Hashish , Director of Security on the occasion of the celebration of the 67th National Police Day.
The governor also presented the governor's shield to the director of security in recognition of the prominent role of the police in serving the citizens and providing security and stability to the homeland. He stressed that Egypt will not forget its martyrs of the police and the army who sacrificed their lives for freedom and independency of their country.
On 25 January 1952، Egypt's police fought a heroic battle against the British occupation in Ismailia, a city overlooking the west bank of the Suez Canal. The British occupation, which was present in Egypt from 1882 until 1956, issued a warning to the Egyptian forces to evacuate the area so they could take full control of the Canal but the police forces stood their grounds.
The National Day festivities continued into the first week of February.

Caroline and Arie Luyendyk Jr. — What Did Arie Do on the Finale?
You're Going to Thank Caroline Lunny After Tonight's 'Bachelor' Finale — So What Did Arie Do?
"I was heartbroken with the way things went down and I was really upset with him for the way he handled things," Caroline told Access Hollywood following the taping. "And like Arie said he had to follow his heart and go with his gut and I don't disagree with that. I get it… The friend in me needed to be like, 'Hey, f–k you.' I needed to say it and I'm just furious, honestly."
During the reunion episode, Chris Harrison asked the ladies if there was anything else they wanted to say to Arie while he sat on stage during his interview segment, and Caroline was one of the first to raise her hand. "So, I mean this whole time you've said that you were here because you were trying to find a wife," she said. "I know what you did, and I don't know how you could do that. And I just really don't understand, but I really hope you found what you're looking for." Caroline later revealed she said as "much as they would let me" at the time.
As to what Arie did on the finale episode — she is most likely referring to the cheating scandal that happened post-filming. If you can't wait until the finale to find out who Arie picks (and why Caroline is not happy about it) we've got you covered.
Italy was Stupefacente! Enjoy tonight's episode!
Whatever Arie did sounds pretty bad but apparently, that isn't the only thing he did to upset Caroline. She said that while she was in the house, she made a mixtape for Arie full of her favorite songs and put them on a USB. But instead of listening to it on his own, he decided to share it with another woman.
"I found out he later used it in the fantasy suite. I'm friends with Becca and she told me! She was like, 'Oh my God we listened to your thing,'" Caroline told Us Weekly. "It's fine because he knew that we were really close, but I was kind of, like, 'That's a little off-sides buddy, playing my f–king mixtape.'"

Macrochelys is a genus of very large freshwater turtles in the family Chelydridae from Southeastern United States. Only a single extant species was recognized until a 2014 study divided it into two, or possibly three species.

Extant species

Traditionally, only a single extant species was recognized, but following reviews, two species are now recognized: Anatomical differences between the two species of Macrochelys include the shape of the caudal notch at the rear of the carapace and the angle of the squamosal bone at the rear of the skull. The two species are estimated to have diverged less than 3.5 million years ago.

 Macrochelys suwanniensis Thomas et al., 2014 – Suwannee snapping turtle
 Macrochelys temminckii (Troost, 1835) – alligator snapping turtle

A third species has been proposed, but its validity is disputed. Neither the Reptile Database nor IUCN's Tortoise and Freshwater Turtle Specialist Group recognize it as separate from M. temminckii.

 Macrochelys apalachicolae Thomas et al., 2014 – Apalachicola snapping turtle

Fossil history and extinct species
Unlike the family Chelydridae as a whole, the genus Macrochelys is exclusively North American. Hutchison (2008) considered the genus Chelydrops to be a junior synonym of Macrochelys, and recombined its type species, Chelydrops stricta from the Miocene (Early Barstovian) of Nebraska, as the (then) fourth species of Macrochelys.

There are two other species known only from fossil remains:

 †Macrochelys auffenbergi Dobie, 1968 (from the Middle Pliocene of Florida)
 †Macrochelys schmidti (from the Early Middle Miocene of Nebraska)

Structural analysis of the cross section of gold/Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) polymer film/gold sandwich structures was performed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and the obtained results were complemented by electron transport investigations of the sandwich structures. The polymer film consisted of four to ten LB monolayers of a nonconducting polymer. TEM analysis of the sandwich cross section revealed a number of gold particles, 2–5 nm in size, formed during the fabrication process within the LB film close to the top electrode. Low temperature dc-transport measurements showed current-voltage (I-V) characteristics with equidistant steps that are not expected if the polymer film is thought to form a single laterally extended tunneling barrier between the metal electrodes. This feature can be understood, however, on the basis of the Coulomb blockade model applied to cluster-like metallic inclusions acting as an island separated from both Au electrodes by tunneling barriers. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

WBB Coaching Change made at Onondaga CC
Onondaga Community College Athletic Director, Michael Borsz, has announced that Kelly Grinnell-Seibt will take over as the Head Women's Basketball Coach at OCC. Grinnell-Seibt's promotion follows the resignation of Mike Wheeler. Wheeler compiled a record of 462-121 during his time with the program. He will continue to aid the college in his role as an Enrollment Associate.
"I want to congratulate and thank Mike Wheeler for his nearly 2 decades of service to our program and his tireless effort in building and leading our championship-caliber women's basketball program, said Borsz. Our women's basketball teams have been very successful during his tenure, winning multiple MSAC and Region III championships and competing for the NJCAA national championship. His teams not only competed on the basketball court, but were always very engaged and strong academically too. Mike will remain at the College in his Enrollment Associate position and will continue helping all students the best he can."
Wheeler knows the program is in good hands with Grinnell-Seibt as he states, "I look forward to my former player and Assistant Coach Kelly Grinnell-Seibt becoming the next head coach. I have worked with Kelly for the past 7 years and without a doubt, she will continue the success of our women's basketball program."
The high praise for Grinnell-Seibt continues as Borsz says "Kelly Grinnell-Seibt brings a wealth of knowledge, energy, and experience to our program. She has gained great experience under the guidance of Coach Wheeler and I know she is ready to lead our program into the next era of OCC women's basketball. I'm excited to welcome Coach Grinnell-Seibt to her new role – I know she will do great things for our students and program."
Grinnell-Seibt has been an assistant on Wheeler's staff for the past seven years and spent a season as a player for the Lazers during the 2010-2011 season. Her collegiate basketball journey began at Robert Wesleyan, where she earned a spot on the American Mideast Conference All-Freshman Team. From there she transferred to OCC where she helped the team win a Mid-State Athletic Conference championship and Region III tournament runner up finishing with a 29-3 record. She finished her collegiate career at SUNY Brockport where she started every game and scored over 300 points as a golden eagle.
In 2014 she made her return to OCC when she was named an assistant coach for the Lazers women's basketball program. She helped the Lazers to a 160-35 record, including 5 Mid-State Atlantic Conference championships, and a Region III championship.
"Onondaga has always felt like home to me. Although I only spent my sophomore year as a student-athlete at OCC, I am forever grateful that I decided to transfer here," says Grinnell-Seibt. "It has been a dream of mine to become a head coach of a program, and to be able to do it at Onondaga makes it even more special."
"I have learned so much from playing and coaching under previous head coach Mike Wheeler. Over the last 20 seasons, Coach Wheeler has built this program from the ground up and created a culture of pursuing success on and off the court. He set a precedent for the future of this program, and I am so excited that I get to continue what he started."

All the facts you ever need to know about
Feelings after abortion: Post-Abortion Syndrome
What are the psychological risks of having an abortion?
We have a saying in the world of therapy. "Secrets kill." Thus is the path of many women after abortion. Don't talk. Don't feel. Keep the secret. - Trudy M. Johnson, M.A., LMFT
What can a woman feel after abortion?
Many women say that no one told them what to expect emotionally. In fact, a woman who has just had an abortion is often under enormous pressure - whether from her partner, her family and friends, or the abortion provider - to act as if nothing has happened, or even to express relief or happiness. In some cases, the woman may be trying to keep the abortion a secret, in which case the pressure can become extreme.
In reality, such pressure is unfair to post-abortive women, who have just undergone a significant and sometimes traumatic surgical procedure, often at a time of great upheaval in their lives.
While some women do indeed experience relief after an abortion, others find that they were not prepared emotionally to deal with the aftermath. Some women may find themselves experiencing unexpected grief or depression, with little understanding or support from their partner or loved ones. In those cases where the woman is keeping the abortion a secret, she must deal with these negative emotions completely alone.
Some may even bury the associated negative emotions just in order to carry on with life, only to find that years - sometimes even decades - later, the unresolved negative emotions suddenly re-emerge, requiring healing.
In fact, some psychologists have coined a term to describe common symptoms that they have found in many post-abortive women who have come to them for help. They call it Post-Abortion Syndrome (PAS). Common symptoms of PAS include guilt, anxiety, depression, thoughts of suicide, drug or alcohol abuse, eating disorders, a desire to avoid children or pregnant women, and flashbacks to the abortion itself.
Women considering abortion have a right to know about the possible emotional risks of their choice. On the other hand, women who have already had an abortion have the right to know that non-judgmental support and healing are available.
Some real-life stories
Relief, sadness, or anger can be felt after abortion. Since each experience is unique, so too is the mix of emotions. Sometimes one feeling will dominate, or more than one could be strong.
Following are some real testimonies available online that help show how women can feel after abortion.
- "Pregnancy, babies, doctors, being a mother, vacuum cleaners and dentist drills became abortion connectors and sent me into emotional anguish."
- "My abortion is associated with so many emotions. They come at unexpected times, but they always go quickly."
- "I was sitting quietly in my bedroom and, suddenly, my entire world went black. It was as if in the space between breaths, my entire existence lost all meaning. ... I began having severe anxiety attacks ... I had no idea at the time that this was due to the rapid drop in hormones experienced as a result of the abortion. No one had told me this could happen."
- "When asked by the hospital psychiatrist why I wanted to die I told him I was already dead inside and just wanted to finish the job."
- "All I felt was a huge relief .... Of course sometimes I wonder if it had been a boy or a girl .... But I have always been at peace with the decision."
- "Initially I guess I was just numb. ... I felt dirty and worthless .... It may be difficult to understand but the violence of the rape made much less of an impact on me than the abortion."
- ...out came some fluid then the sac split open, there was my baby! its tiny little head and body, i broke down started shouting at myself and saying sorry to my baby ... I did it for other people not myself and now im the one who has to live with this regret and hatred towards myself. - abortion pill patient
- "I have no regrets. Zero. The whole situation still hurts sometimes."
- "To have a baby after an abortion is not so easy. The feelings that are in your mind and heart about your abortion are somehow mirrored in the new baby. I think it would be easier if all these issues were spoken of openly."
- "I look back at each of these abortions, and my heart is sad. I loved them and wanted to meet them, but I was too weak. ... I cry, I hurt." -hyperemesis gravidarum sufferer (1)
Testimonies show that after an abortion a woman can feel simple relief, overwhelming loss, anger, or numbness. Pain may be short-lived or decades long, or surface after years of avoidance.
What can make abortion traumatic?
Abortion doctors have found several known risk factors for serious emotional pain, or trauma, from abortion.(2) Less proven but possible risk factors have also been found by experienced therapists:
- The abortion is forced, or chosen under pressure. Research suggests women commonly feel pressured into abortion, either by other people or by circumstances.(3) This is a known risk for later emotional trauma. "At times women may feel compelled not to follow through with a pregnancy under pressure from a husband, boyfriend, or family member," writes San Francisco trauma therapist Susanne Babbel. "In any case, it is usually thought of as a solution to stressful circumstances."
It sometimes happens that an abortion is genuinely forced. It could be forced by a patient's parent, her partner, or a doctor who ignores her request to stop the abortion. (4) This is always a crime. A woman or girl has a right to refuse an abortion no matter her age or any other circumstance.
In less serious cases, therapists say women simply felt "no choice" but to abort a pregnancy they might have kept in better times. This can also be a red flag for problems later on.(5)
- The abortion is a medical abortion (RU-486). - Another risk factor may be choosing a medical, or chemical, abortion (RU-486 drug).
This is because the abortion pill completes the process in a private setting. At home, a woman may actually see the remains of her baby, sometimes while alone and in great physical pain.
"Those who do see more [by using the abortion pill] have more nightmares, more trauma symptoms," says psychiatrist Dr. Martha Shuping, author of The Four Steps to Healing.
- A history of depression, abuse or other mental health problems. - One of the clearest risks for abortion-related stress is a history of mental health issues, such as depression or anxiety. (5)
A victim of sexual abuse has a higher likelihood of struggling to cope with abortion. (5b) In other contexts, family wounds such as an absent father figure have also been linked to emotional stress problems. (6)
- There is little or no support system. - A woman may avoid talking about her experience if she feels there's no one to turn to, or if she's already suffered judgment.
Even if support is available, it can't benefit a woman if she opts to handle things alone. Therapists say many women choose this path after abortion.
"I believe most women, myself included, are forced to go into a period of stuffing down the sadness and getting on with life," says therapist Dr. Trudy Johnson, author of C.P.R.: Choice Processing and Resolution. (7) But this choice, she says, can lead to serious complications.
Post-Abortion Stress Syndrome
Not all women experience emotional problems after abortion. But for many, grief after abortion can become a real emotional wound. This is sometimes called Post Abortion Syndrome or Post Abortion Stress Syndrome (PASS), which informally refers to a type of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Such a wound can affect someone in different ways: the painful event may come to mind again and again, or it may sink far out of mind, dulling the pain.
In the first case, a woman may suffer from "triggers" (sights or sounds that remind her of the abortion) or abortion-themed nightmares that arouse her grief. (7a) But in the second case, suppressed grief can secretly damage daily life through depression, anger, or broken relationships. This is sometimes called "emotional toxicity." (8)
Therapists say patients often aren't even aware when their depression stems from an abortion wound, which can take 15 years or more to surface fully. (9)
Yes, healing is possible
An abortion wound can heal. The first step is to seek that healing.
However, experts emphasize that women can't be left to walk this path of healing alone: they must be granted a judgment-free zone where they can have a chance to work through their feelings.
"There is little social support for women who find abortion a stressful experience," says Dr. Theresa Karminski Burke, founder of Rachel's Vineyard. "There is no validation for her grief and anger.
"Women need a safe place to grieve an abortion loss separate from a political or religious discussion."
Dr. Johnson, who is post-abortive, said her experience proved finding such a place can be very difficult.
"I went to three professionals who did not understand my situation. Two validated my choice but not my grief. One condemned my choice and completely invalidated my grief," she said. "So make sure you move toward safety and caring and compassionate people who understand abortion grief."
Today, there are more places to find help healing from abortion, some of which are listed at the bottom of this article.
Many women also experience a further need: spiritual healing. This too is a real need that women have a right to recuperate. (See abortion and spirituality page here.)
Helping women heal
The turning point for many women who are suffering Post-Abortion Syndrome comes when a woman's story is understood, and this starts with those closest to her. Loved ones must have the courage to be silent, to listen, to support, and to hope.
The following are some pointers offered by post-abortive women on what loved ones can do for them: (10)
Be with her.
- Be the space where she can breathe. Respect her privacy: reveal the abortion to others only if she says it's OK.
- Be physically present - especially partners.
- Let your real concern and compassion show without words. Simple physical touch may be the best communication.
- Strive to accept her feelings no matter how strongly you feel yourself. Let her speak about what she wants to, with the terms she chooses.
- Avoid judgments such as why the abortion was good or bad, a personal stance on abortion or motherhood, or how she ought to feel.
- Send the message that she doesn't have to be 'in control' for you to be there.
- Keep in touch.
- Encourage her to care for herself with food and rest.
- Make yourself available to run errands.
- Invite her to events, including children's birthdays or baby showers. Let her accept or decline, and invite her to later ones unless she's said not to.
- If she asks, help her commemorate the lost child.
- Research depression and trauma to learn about what she's going through.
- Get help if she speaks of suicide or shows other signs of worsening mental health.

Plateau State Community and Social Development Agency
About Plateau State Community and Social Development Agency
The State Government was among the first set of States that fulfilled all the World Bank requirements for participation, and in April, 2009 the State Government established the Plateau State Community and Social Development Agency to implement the World Bank assissted 'Community and Social Development Project (CSDP)
The Bill Establishing the Plateau State Community and Social Development Ageny was passed into Law by the Plateau State House of Assembly in March 2009 and in the same month, the State Governor Da Jonah David Jang accented to the Bill giving it the status of an Agency.
The Agency uses the bottom-to-top approach, where Communities apply for intervention in the provision of social amenities in form of Micro-Projects. Presently the Agency has intervened in 123 Communities. A total of 202 Completed Micro-Projects and 21 On-going Projects spread across the State.
One of the key highlights of the Community and Social Development Project (CSDP) is that clear-cut supportive roles and responsibilities are provided for the key actors in the project cycle. They include: the Federal level -the Federal Project Steering Committee (FPSC) and the Federal Project Support Unit (FPSU); the State level, State Agency Board, the State Agency (SA); and the Local Government level -the Local Government Review Committee (LGRC) and the LGA Desk Office (LGDO).
The overall goal of the CSDP is to improve access to services for Human Development (HD).
To achieve this goal, the Project Development Objective (PDO) is to support empowerment of communities and Local Government Authorities (LGAs) for sustainable increase access of poor people to improved social and, natural resource infrastructure services. Specifically, the CSDP hopes to:
Empower communities to plan, part-finance, implement, monitor and maintain sustainable and socially inclusive multi-sectoral micro-projects
facilitate and increase Community-LGA partnership on HD-related projects;
increase the capacity of LGAs and State Agencies to implement and monitor CDD policies and interventions; and
leverage State and local government resources for greater coverage of CDD interventions in communities.


I had went ahead & purchased this game when it popped up while I was purchasing another game, for $3.99. Should've saved my money. The game WASN'T hard, BUT...They screwed you with making the objects as TINY as they could-THEN, they had the nerve to have a few scenes go under water!! Maybe it's just me, but even with my glasses on I was having difficult time finding the tiniest ones they hid camouflaged against things WAY in tight corners & in the Dark areas as well. I also had to keep flipping back & forth from full screen to small screen at times. Don't know about anyone else's computer, but when mine is full screen & there are objects on far, far right & left sides- I don't see them till I go out of full screen.
This game would have been decent had they made it so you could play w/o a magnifying glass!
TIP: when the little black figure pops in from all corners of your screen-CLICK on it--I made the mistake of either not paying attention at beginning or just not catching on right away, But when you click on it you get extra hints.
Was going to play another game tonight, but my eyes are SO blurry I have to go take my glasses off & put some drops in them!
OK, I'm done! (lol) --- Thanx for letting me vent & Happy Gaming Everyone!

Q: Named key/value pairs in a Swift dictionaries Is there a way to have named key/value pairs in a Swift dictionaries? I'd rather use a name instead of an index number to refer to either the key or the value.
Unfortunately, key/value pairs by name in Dictionary in Swift only discusses referring to the keys and values in a for-loop. I'd like to give the keys and values a name when I declare them in the typealias so they can always be referred to by their names.
Please see the comment in the below code snippet to show what I mean:
typealias CalendarRules = [EKCalendar : [String]]
let calendarRules = buildCalendarRules() // builds the array.
let firstCalendarRule = calendarRules.first
print(firstCalendarRule.0)       // I'd like to write: print(firstCalendarRule.cal)
print(firstCalendarRule.1)       // I'd like to write: print(firstCalendarRule.theString)

A: This has nothing to do with dictionaries, except very indirectly; and your CalendarRules type alias is irrelevant. Your firstCalendarRule is not a dictionary; it is a tuple. You are free to name the members of a tuple:
typealias Rule = (cal:String, string:String)
let d = ["I am a calendar":"I am a string"]
let firstRule : Rule = d.first!
print(firstRule.cal) // I am a calendar

Well same color palette today...different card! This certainly is not easy for me. Here is the sketches we are using this week.
The center is a Hero Art's stamp that I stamped in a deep purple. This stamp makes the flower have two shades of purple. I die cut two butterflies, one from light purple and one from aqua vellum. I put both thru an embossing folder to give them texture. I used some sequins as I thought it needed something.
Close up..the picture is a little dark as it is cloudy here!
Gorgeously crafted! Really like this design and the selections you made.
Beautiful card! Love that flower stamp!
Lovely card! Great use of the color combo!
Stick to doing your own thing, Betty Sue! You've got a winner here. Love the window idea and that stamp is just gorgeous! … And thank you so much for stopping by my blog. I'll be following you, if you don't mind :-) Hope to see you around soon.
Nice design-- really like the poppy.

Centre allocated Rs. 412.19 Crore for Telangana under Jal Jeevan Mission in 2020-21
New Delhi: Union Minister of Jal Shakti, Shri Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, in an official communiqué to the Chief Minister of Telangana, raised his concerns on the status of Functional Household Tap Connections (FHTC) to be provided in the rural areas of the State. Referring to his earlier meeting with the CM, the central minister stated that complete updation of the tap connection data in Integrated Management Information System (IMIS) of the Ministry has not happened so far even after the instructions of the Chief Minister to do so.
Jal Jeevan Mission, a flagship programme of the Government of India, is under implementation since 2019-20 with the objective to provide 55 litres of potable water per person per day to every rural household of the country on regular and long-term basis. JJM aims to improve the lives of rural people especially women and girls by reducing their drudgery. States are implementing this transformational mission so that the time-bound objective of providing household tap connection in rural areas could be accomplished by 2024.
The minister, in his letter, stressed on the importance of updated data in IMIS as national level database is accessed by various stakeholders including UN agencies, NITI Aayog, World Bank, Asian Development Bank, think tanks, media, etc and is also used for reply as well as statement in the Parliament. UN agencies also use this data to monitor the progress of a State/ country in terms of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, the State so far has remained non-responsive to numerous requests made by Ministry of Jal Shakti for real time data updation of tap connections provided in rural areas. So far, only partial updation has been done by the State in JJM-IMIS. In the absence of this, the status of household tap connections in Telangana is not known.
Further, the Minister in his letter highlighted that during the meeting it was informed that the State is reaching 100% FHTC status, but the data reports of only 35.86 lakh households have been provided with tap connections out of 54.37 lakh total rural households in the State. This gap is worrisome and creates huge confusion.
Emphasizing the role of local community, Minister urged the CM to involve local village community/ Gram Panchayats and or its sub-committee like Village Water & Sanitation Committee or user groups in planning, implementation, management, operation and maintenance of water supply systems in villages to ensure long-term sustainability of water supply schemes to achieve drinking water security.
The Central minister stated that in 2019-20 Telangana was allocated ₹ 259.14 Crore and only ₹ 105.52 Crore could be released by Government of India as State was unable to avail second instalment due to non-reporting of physical progress and non-submission of proper expenditure plan. The Minister also stated about the vision of the Union Government to provide all assistance to the state as potable water is the national priority. In this endeavour, Central Government has increased the fund allocation to Telangana from ₹ 259.14 Crore to ₹ 412.19 Crore for the year 2020-21. Thus, with an opening balance of ₹ 30.89 Crore along with this year's allocation, Telangana has assured availability of ₹ 443.29 Crore under JJM as Central funds. It has also been mentioned that if the State intends to take up water supply schemes under JJM utilizing Central fund, an Annual Action Plan is to be prepared by the State, which will be approved by the National Committee headed by Secretary, DDWS. The State has not presented Annual Action Plan (2020-21) so far.
Shri Shekhawat in his letter said that he is hopeful that the State will provide 100% tap connections to all rural households in the year 2020-21 itself and become the first State to achieve the feat. And the state will become 'Har Ghar Jal Rajya' this year itself. Assuring the Telangana CM of full support of Union Government, he intends to discuss various issues pertaining to implementation of Jal Jeevan Mission in the State through video conferencing soon.

Ten of the books that influenced my reading SF. This is missing Asimov, Zelazny, Moon, Bujold, Lee&Miller and a whole lot of others that I added and erased. I didn't do any other genre or non-modern because then Austin, Melville and a whole lot of others would need to be added. How can one choose ten books?
Exactly! I just typed ten and posted. As I read others I would do a "that one too!". At this time I would probably have a different ten. The meme specified only ten.


The California Air Resources Board continues to receive inquiries about portable air cleaners from those impacted by recent wildfires. In an effort to ensure that consumers are able to identify safe, effective air cleaners that will reduce their exposure to smoke and smoke residue, CARB wants to make more people aware of its list of certified air cleaners and other resources available on its website.
Air cleaners on CARB's certified list are confirmed as safe and legal for sale in California: https://www.arb.ca.gov/research/indoor/aircleaners/certified.htm. These are the only air cleaners that can be legally sold to Californians, as they meet CARB's portable air cleaner regulation, which places a limit on the amount of ozone the air cleaners can emit.
CARB recommendations for finding an effective air cleaner are available at: https://www.arb.ca.gov/research/indoor/acdsumm.pdf. Guidance for selecting higher efficiency filters for central heating and air systems is also included.
Tiny airborne particles are the primary health concern for those exposed to fire smoke. These particles can be inhaled and deposit on the surface of the deeper parts of the lung, where it can induce tissue damage and lung inflammation.
Choose a mechanical air cleaner with a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter because it collects even very small particles well and does not emit ozone or other substances that can be harmful. These air cleaners can dramatically reduce indoor particle levels, in some cases by more than 90 percent.
Thick charcoal beds or filters in the air cleaner, especially those with certain coatings, can also help remove some gases produced by fires. This may be helpful for those dealing with odors and for sensitive groups such as older individuals with pre-existing health conditions.
If your air cleaner of choice includes an ionizer, UV bulb or other technology in addition to a HEPA filter, be sure it is on CARB's certified air cleaner list. If it's on the list, you will know that any ozone it emits is within safe limits.
Both particle and charcoal filters in air cleaners should be checked frequently and changed as needed. Owners' manuals usually indicate the normal replacement frequency; more frequent replacement may be needed during fire smoke conditions.
Those cleaning up ash after fire damage to their home can find information about health and safety during cleanup under "Safety Resources" here: http://wildfirerecovery.org/.

In ancient Roman religion, Roma was a female deity who personified the city of Rome and more broadly, the Roman state. Her image appears on the base of the column of Antoninus Pius.
Problems in earliest attestation
A helmeted figure on Roman coins of 280-276 and 265-242 BCE is sometimes interpreted as Roma but the identification is contestable. Other early Roman coinage shows a warlike "Amazon" type, possibly Roma but more likely genius than dea. Ennius personified the "Roman fatherland" as Roma: for Cicero, she was the "Roman state", but neither of these are dea Roma. Though her Roman ancestry is possible - perhaps merely her name and the ideas it evoked - she emerges as a Greek deity.
Roma in the Greek world
The earliest certain cult to dea Roma was established at Smyrna in 195 BCE, probably to mark Rome's successful alliance against Antiochus III. Mellor has proposed her cult as a form of religio-political diplomacy which adjusted traditional Graeco-Eastern monarchic honours to Republican mores: honours addressed to the divine personification of the Roman state acknowledged the authority of its offices, Republic and city as divine and eternal.

These visual examples of geometry ideas are sometimes called Proof Without Words.
Try this one. It shows a conclusion about the sum of the three interior angles of any triangle by folding down the corners of the triangle. Ingenious!
Next, try this one. It shows the same conclusion about the sum of the three interior angles of any triangle in a different way. Grab a vertex, move it around, and watch what happens.
How about the sum of the exterior angles of a polygon? Go here. This is an amazing way to show a powerful conclusion in geometry. If you wish add a side to the polygon by using a Command click on a Mac. Beautiful!
How about a proof for the Quadrilateral? Or Pentagon? Or even a Hexagon? Go here. (You may want to scroll down the page some).
Look at the visual proof of the Pythagorean Theorem using a dissection method.
One more proof of the Pythagorean theorem, this time using WATER!

The NFL Should Ban This Super Bowl Commercial
2:00PM EST 1/30/2015 Deborah Hamilton

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is trying to cut down on the number of sexual assaults against women by players in the league. With Super Bowl XLIX just around the corner, American Family Association (AFA, afa.net) says Goodell can take at least one step this weekend to help.
Carl's Jr., owned by CKE Restaurants (which also owns Hardee's) is scheduled to air a sexually explicit commercial during the Super Bowl on Sunday, and millions of families and children will be watching.
The commercial features a woman who appears to be completely nude as she walks through a farmer's market as men ogle her, until the end, when it's revealed she is wearing a bikini while eating a hamburger from Carl's Jr. AFA says Carl's Jr. and Hardee's have a long history of airing smutty ads, and this one falls in line with CKE Restaurant's consistent practice of disrespecting and degrading women and families.
"The Super Bowl should be a time when we can sit with our families and children and enjoy the biggest football game of the year," said AFA President Tim Wildmon. "Instead, we see values annihilated as Carl's Jr. blatantly demonstrates to little girls that they should aspire to look, and worse yet, act like this woman, and suggests to young boys that women are objects of lust. Families shouldn't have to worry about shielding their kids' eyes during the commercial breaks in the Super Bowl. If the NFL truly wants to clean up its act and show that the league respects women, standing up for clean ads is well within Roger Goodell's authority."
AFA suggests that those concerned with the disrespectful ad contact Goodell before this Sunday's Super Bowl game, urging him and the NFL to reject the Carl's Jr. ad in favor of respecting women and protecting families who will be watching the Super Bowl.
Call NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell at (212) 450-2000.
Connect with Roger Goodell on Facebook, Twitter or on the NFL web site
E-mail Roger Goodell (via his public relations director) with this message:
Subject: Stop the filthy Carl's Jr. commercial during the Super Bowl
Dear Commissioner Goodell:
The NFL has the right and authority to ensure the Super Bowl broadcast is decent and quality entertainment for families, and especially children, who might be watching.
I urge you to use your influence to reject a planned commercial by Carl's Jr. The ad is tasteless, highly sexualized and degrading to women.
As one who has shown concern over the recent number of sexual assaults against women by NFL members, this is an excellent opportunity for you to send the message that you will not tolerate any disrespect of women, even in television commercials.
Please tell the networks that the Carl's Jr. commercial must not be a part of the NFL Super Bowl presentation.
Monica Cole, director of OneMillionMoms.com (1MM), a division of AFA, recently wrote about Super Bowl ads as well.
"After several years of speaking out about inappropriate commercials during the Super Bowl and also thanking those who have kept it clean and used their financial dollars wisely, 1MM saw a positive change in the advertising during the big game last year," Cole said. "Even though there is still room for improvement, 1MM believes that our voice is being heard. Families should be able to watch the game together if they choose. Last year's game was remarkably improved from years past because viewers were not bombarded with sexually explicit and disgusting ads during every commercial break. Parents should remain on guard, but it is encouraging to see that our voice kept crudeness to a minimum. That is 1MM's goal again this year."
Besides the questionable Carl's Jr. commercial planned for this year, another ad for T-Mobile features a scantily clad Kim Kardashian talking about smartphone data.
AFA urges concerned viewers to contact CKE Restaurants, owners of Carl's Jr. and Hardee's before this Sunday's Super Bowl game by visiting onemillionmoms.com/current-campaigns/carls-jr-super-bowl-ad.
American Family Association offers its friends and supporters several mobile apps through afa.net/resources/mobile-apps/. The AFA Action Alerts app, with breaking news and action alerts, is available for the iPhone and iPad on the Apple App Store, on Google Play and on the Amazon Appstore for Android. The AFR (American Family Radio) app is available for Apple and Android products, and the AFA Action app with, for example, voter information at election time, is available on Apple and Android platforms.

In this one, we answer your question, is polyamory for me? In this eye-opening episode, I interview six people who practice some form of polyamory and open relationships. They share their raw and realistic perspectives on both the potential benefits and challenges of choosing polyamorous relationships. They also help explain the numerous terms that can be confusing for a polyamory beginner. And be sure to listen to the very end where I reveal a big aha on what monogamists can learn from polyamorists!
I have an adult son who is involved in a poly relationship with two women. I have met them and like them both. I believe he choose this after his 7 years monogamous marriage failed and he now feels that a traditional monogamous marriage is no longer a long-term workable situation. I happen think his issue is "marriage" more than anything. As a lifelong monogamous wife myself, it has been difficult to wrap my head around this life choice but I have made a conscious decision to accept his choice and him. My son seems happy but of course I admit I do wonder how it is between jobs, home maintenance, children, fitness schedules and personal interests who has the time (mental, physical and emotional energy) to maintain more than one serious relations?
I also question the health risks involved with being sexual with so many partners. I have always been of the mind when you sleep with on person you are essentially sleeping with all of their multiple partners. Every additional sexual partners adds an another layer of risk. I personally find this physical risk is just too great but apparently these folks do not.
These people are young and middle age, actively working or childless. I can see how this could work. But as an aging woman, I certainly wonder how this work as partners age? When one of the aging partners gets sick, who takes care of them or do partners just bail? Without marriages, how do they manage the financial situation of insurances, pensions, social security? What happens when one is financially well set but one is not?
I want to be monogamous. I know that poly would not work for me but apparently this is working for my son.
