Gothic Literature Focused On Death
Gothic literature was a literary movement that focused on death, decay and both physical and psychological terror. Gothic style also suggests a belief in the supernatural and thus many gothic texts contain an air of mystery and intrigue. The genre was originally thought to be a response to the Age of Reason, which was a radical notion held by Thomas Paine that criticised religion and challenged the legitimacy of the bible. Another key aspect in any gothic text is 'evil'. Such inclusion of these evil figures consequently helped to make visible the political view of the text. During the emergence of the gothic literary movement, it is perhaps unsurprising that the period was characterised by widespread terror; namely from the French Revolution. Subsequently, the genre became very popular amongst writers as it enabled them to express their sympathy and concern over such political movements.
The Castle of Otranto, written by Horace Walpole in 1764, is widely considered to be the first gothic romance. Walpole's intention was to combine aspects of the Medieval romance and the modern novel. Indeed, Walpole noted that it was "an attempt to blend the two kinds of romance, the ancient and the modern. In the former all was imagination and improbability: in the latter, nature is always intended to be, and sometimes has been, copied with success…". The novel gained widespread acclaim and popularity and hence became a trendsetter for many authors who followed Walpole's gothic style. Thus, Walpole is essentially the forerunner to renowned authors such as Edgar Allan Poe, Ann Radcliffe and Charles Dickens- amongst many others.
Frankenstein, written in 1816, by Mary Shelley, is one of the most well known examples of romantic literature and Gothic novels. The literary movement of romanticism, which had a profound influence on the novel, emerged from the Industrial Revolution that took place from the late eighteenth century. The Industrial Revolution spurred a period of concern amongst many with the destruction of nature and the quality of living in cities. Before romanticism, emphasis was placed on law and religion; now the emphasis was on the sublime and evoking strong emotions. Indeed, the influence of nature is evident throughout Frankenstein, with the emergence of spring making the monsters' mood lighten after a bleak winter. This concept is also illuminated by the way that the "winds whispered in soothing accents, and maternal Nature bade me weep no more".
Edgar Allan Poe's short tales are another prominent example of gothic fiction. Poe's short stories often contained aspects of horror, murder, insanity and the supernatural; key characteristics of gothic literature. The Tell Tale Heart, first published in 1843, is one of Poe's most renowned pieces of work and intrinsically focuses on paranoia and mental deterioration. The story opens with the narrator addressing the reader and assuring them that he nervous, although not mad; "TRUE! nervous, very, very dreadfully nervous I had been and am; but why WILL you say that I am mad?". Ironically, however, this has the opposite effect of the narrators' intention, which is to convince the reader that they are not mad. Poe's economy of expression aid the narrative of the story and this association with form and content may perhaps be an attempt on the Poe's behalf to illustrate the narrator's insanity. Poe's use of repetition serves to emphasise the thought process of the narrator, which also indicates the "acuteness of his senses", that is, his sensitivity to everything that goes on around him. Similarly, the frequent use of hyphens and italics illustrate the anxiety and frustration of the narrator .The narrators' delusions of grandeur however are short lived as he/she becomes fixated on "the beating of (the) hideous heart".
The timing and location of gothic stories are of key importance in creating an element of suspense and horror. For instance, in The Tell Heart, a sinister aspect is created by the way in which it was "as black as pitch, with thick darkness". Nighttime or the 'witching hour' is often perceived to be the scariest time and thus adds to the increasing element of suspense, which is apparent throughout. Likewise, The Wasp Factory is characteristically dark with the protagonist's house being set on an island. This immediately introduces an air of isolation and containment, which is once again, a key attribute of gothic fiction.
The notion of the supernatural is often a recurring theme in many gothic fiction works and often focuses on satirising religion or, as evident in Frankenstein, being a warning against humans playing the role of God. Indeed, the role of Frankenstein continues to play a leading role in scientific debates. According to Betty Bennett, a literary consultant, "In our modern era, we have major issues of responsibility and those issues are not only issues of cloning, but issues of government… So Frankenstein has come to be understood and respected from those points of view". Supernatural aspects are also apparent in The Tell Heart, with the narrator essentially ascribing himself the role of God. This notion is exemplified by the way he describes his supremacy: "the extent of my powers- of my sagacity". This conception of grandeur that the narrator assigns to himself is closely linked to the reader's perception of his insanity, which ultimately creates a feeling of both intrigue and suspense.
In essence, the literary of the gothic can be described as any "novel in which supernatural horrors and an atmosphere of unknown horror pervades the action".


CARROLLTON, Ga. – For the second straight weekend, the West Georgia Wolves soccer team is on the road for a pair of games, beginning with Friday's 5 p.m. contest against Clayton State in Milledgeville. The Wolves then take on Georgia College on Sunday at 3 p.m. also in Milledgeville.
The Wolves, led by head coach Stacey Balaam, are coming off of a season opening road trip that saw a scoreless draw to Rollins before a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Barry. The Wolves' defense allowed just one goal in 200 minutes of action last weekend, with sophomore Jackie Donaldson making 11 saves in 12 chances.
West Georgia will now try to take what they learned last weekend and translate it into success on the pitch as they take on a pair of Peach Belt squads in Milledgeville.
Clayton State is 2-0 as they head into this weekend's games after a pair of wins over Gulf South Conference teams Auburn Montgomery and Valdosta State to open their season. The Lakers have scored six goals on the season including two from Manoly Baquerizo.
Sunday's opponent Georgia College also brings a perfect 2-0 record into the weekend as they face Montevallo on Friday to open the weekend. The Bobcats' wins came over Anderson and Florida Southern last weekend. All four of GC's goals on the season have come from four different players with Amanda Bartholomew leading in points with one goal and two assists.
The Wolves will look to execute that game plan when they take the pitch on Friday for a 5 p.m. kickoff against Clayton State in Milledgeville. Sunday's game against Georgia College is set for a 3 p.m. kickoff.

Popular Montreal-Area Flea Market Finnegan's Is Closing Its Stalls For Good
COVID-19 strikes again.
Jenna Pearl
Finnegan's Market in Hudson.
Finnegan's Market - Marché Finnegan | Facebook
Welp, COVID-19 strikes again. The pandemic has been an infamously difficult time for businesses that haven't been able to transition to online sales, including Finnegan's Market — Hudson's flea market and Montreal's antiquing destination for nearly 50 years.
It's no surprise that Finnegan's Market was affected by the pandemic. While online antiquing has its charm — and many of the market's vendors have their own websites — there's nothing like treasure hunting in person, which over the last two years has been intermittently impossible.
Now, just as COVID-19 restrictions are being lifted, the founders of Finnegan's Market have announced that they're closing up shop for good.
"It is with heavy hearts that we announce that Finnegan's Market will not be reopening," the Aird family wrote on Facebook on March 31. "We did not take this family decision lightly and hope it will be received with understanding."
"We thank our loyal vendors, customers, employees, friends and neighbours for their steadfast support for almost fifty years."
Customers are posting messages of support and thanks in the Facebook post's comments section.
Finnegan's Market was opened in 1972 on the Aird family farm and was named after the family dog, Finnegan. (It was going to be a "flea" market, after all.) Since then, it's become a weekend staple in Hudson and a day-trip destination for generations of Montrealers.
The Airds also have a barn full of antiques, available year-round by appointment, although they told MTL Blog they haven't decided yet if they will keep the barn up and running.

Q: toggle image on hover using Jquery First of all please dont suggest me to do this using css.
I need to toggle between two images on-hover using Jquery.
I need that two images (two toggling images) should be downloaded at the time of page load. Cause else it will create a lag time for the first time. As my images are two banners on the home page.I need to do something creating a image object , thus pre-loading it and later on toggling the objects.
I cant do this using simple css cause there will be a lag for the first time user as the image is not present on page load. and it gives a bad look.

A: $(function(){
   var imgs = [
       new Image(),
       new Image()
   ];

   imgs[0].src = 'http://www.typeofnan.com/pic1.jpg';
   imgs[1].src = 'http://www.typeofnan.com/pic2.jpg';

   $('#hoverelement').hover(function(){
      $(this).html(imgs[0]);
   }, function(){
      $(this).html(imgs[1]);
   });
});

That should work, even if I'm not sure if that is what you need. You can add an onload event to both images to makes sure, they are really loaded before allowing hovering.

A: Here's the Quick  Demo  of below Code : http://jsbin.com/itunu
HTML :
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<meta charset=utf-8 />
<title>Hello world !!</title>

</head>
<body>
  <img  />
</body>
</html>

Javascript :
var a = [];

a[0] = "http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss219/music_munster/powerpuff-girls-092.jpg";
a[1] = "http://img.listal.com/image/459059/500full.jpg";

$(document).ready(function() {
  var source = $.preload(a);
  $('img').attr('src',source[0].src); //just an acknowledgement (pre-loading done)
  $('img').hover(function() {
    $('img').attr('src',source[1].src);
  },function() {
    $('img').attr('src',source[0].src);
  });

});

//Image Preloading....
var cache = [];
  $.preload = function(arr) {
    for(var i = 0; i<arr.length; i++) {
      var img = new Image();
      img.src = arr[i];
      cache.push(img);
    }
    return cache;
  };

Members of Congress continue condemning Azerbaijan's latest escalation of anti-Armenian aggression, reports Asbarez.
"Azerbaijan should be held accountable for engaging in violence and not in peaceful negotiations," commented San Fernando Valley, CA Congressman Brad Sherman, tweeting in solidarity with the Armenian Youth Federation #ArtsakhStrong social media campaign raising awareness about Karabakh freedom and opposing Azerbaijan's increasing aggression.
CA Board of Equalization Member and Controller Elect Betty Yee also shared her concerns regarding the most recent attack. "When life is threatened anywhere and citizens are left in fear, the possibility of peace becomes less hopeful. I join my elected colleagues around the world in denouncing this act of violence against Armenia. May peace reign within the borders, and may violence against any people and nation be condemned," Betty Yee stated.
Congressmen Frank Pallone and Adam Schiff had condemned the actions of Azerbaijan earlier.
As NKR Defense Ministry press service reported earlier, on November 12, at around 1:45 pm, Nagorno Karabakh Air Forces' Mi-24 helicopter was shot by the Azerbaijani Armed Forces during military training flight in the airspace in the eastern section of Karabakh – Azerbaijan Line of Contact. The land, on which the incident occurred, is in close proximity to the line of contact. Opponent after the incident continued intense bombardment scene from weapons of different caliber. The place where the helicopter was shot is close to the Line of Contact. The enemy continued to fire shots from weapons of different calibers after the incident.
Meanwhile, the press secretary of Armenian Defense Minister Artsrun Hovhannisyan wrote on his Facebook page that Azerbaijani Armed Forces have carried out an unprecedented provocation on the border with the Republic of Nagorno Karabakh; this has also led to escalation of the situation. In the same time the fabrications of the Azerbaijani side, as if the Armenian helicopters had attacked their positions and they allegedly had merely responded to this step, are senseless. "The study of the wreckage of the helicopter will confirm that he was not armed. The escalation of the Azerbaijani side has continued even after the helicopter fall down. Moreover, the Azerbaijani side continued shelling, not allowing even to get closer to the pilots. The consequences of this unprecedented escalation will be very harmful for the Azerbaijani side and will remain as a stain on the conscience of the military-political leadership of Azerbaijan. Captain of the helicopter was Major Sergei Sahakyan. Information about the fate of the crew will be given later," Artsrun Hovhannisyan stated.

The only thing funnier than watching our governor try to tap dance his way around the "Religious Freedom Act" debacle would be if he did it while riding a unicycle wearing a clown suit. But a horrible thought occurred - as he sees his plans to run for president go down in howls of derisive laughter, he may decide to run for re-election as our governor, and knowing this state, he might actually win.
So�I've decided to form a Political Action Committee to help Gov. Dense...uh Pence...run for president.
Please give generously to the Committee Resolved to Encourage and Endorse Pence for president aka CREEP (With a nod to Nixon's Committee to RE-Elect the President)

Indiana made the national news twice this week.
�First our state was ridiculed and ostracized for the so called Religious Freedom law widely seen as a license to discriminate against gays, and which Gov Dense (really like that) signed behind closed doors. Then we Hoosiers made headlines thanks to an outbreak of AIDS in Scott County that's so bad the gov declared a health�emergency and authorized a one-time, special needle exchange program at the urging of the Centers for Disease Control. Hey at least the AIDS epidemic is related to IV drug addiction not gay sex.
There's something to be proud of...

I see Gov. Dense is going to sign the "Religious Freedom" bill into law.
Passed by the Indiana House 63 - 31 and the Indiana Senate 40 - 10, the bill says I don't have to serve you in my place of business if it violates my religious beliefs.
And as a lifetime member of The Church of Fred,�I'm all for it!
In The Church of Fred, we worship the Flintstones.�We're a modern Stone Age family. And I don't want no brain-dead Neanderthals coming into my store!
Of course since a lot of my customers are state legislators, that's really going to cut down on business.�
But I don't care!

From:� Taste of Indiana
Savor this: three stories on the Indianapolis Business Journal's home page this morning, Feb 19, 2015,�should give anyone a real flavor for what our fearless leaders in the statehouse believe.
1. State budget proposal shifts aid toward wealthy schools
"IPS would see a six-percent reduction in state tuition aid by 2017 despite being one of the state�s poorest districts, with more than 75 percent of children coming from families that are poor enough to qualify for free or reduced-price lunch."
The story says that, statewide, a third of all public schools would take a hit.�
2. Bill that riles solar industry passes House committee
"A controversial bill to change the guidelines governing Hoosiers using alternative energy sources � including solar and wind power � passed a House Committee on Wednesday."
This story says the people will be punished if they try to free themselves from the bonds of the big utility companies.
3, Senate panel quickly advances religious freedom bill
"Republicans on an Indiana Senate committee didn't wait for the late-running Democratic members to arrive Wednesday before pushing through a contentious proposal supporters say would ensure people and businesses could refuse services for same-sex weddings because of religious beliefs."
The story says it's okay to discriminate based on your religion (kind of like the Muslim terrorists do).
Welcome to the dinner table, unless you're poor, environmentally conscious or gay. Chow down Indiana.

Well Mitch and that gang of asshole Repukes takeover today. I`m sure that the next 2 years are going to be the most miserable years we will see in a long time. We progressives have to get our act together. We need to quit all the squabbling with one another and elect more good Democrats. We can start by reelecting the Mayor and picking up some council seats. Its back to basics.

This "Bridge" was replaced by LibreOffice 4.X and is only available in LibreOffice before 4.0.
You should have a JRE (or JDK) 1.5 or newer installed.
You should get the Java Access Bridge for Windows. What you get is an executable file that starts an InstallShield installer.
Start the executable, you will get a prompt that you have to be administrator to install. Do not confirm this dialog yet. (You can also use a parameter, e.g. /x or /Va to force the installer to bring up some dialog that has to be confirmed before the temporary files are removed).
Go to your Temporary folder. There you should find a directory starting with _is.
Inside this directory there is an .msi package. Copy this package somewhere else.
Quit the installation by confirming the dialog of the installer.
Now, you can unpack the files of the .msi package by starting the installer with the /a option. Note, that you need administrative permissions or some kind of sudo even for that. You will get a dialog with a destination folder. The files are then installed into that folder instead of into %PROGRAMFILES%\Java\jre_xxx\lib. Now you have the necessary files to use the Java Access Bridge.
Copy the file accessibility.properties to %UserProfile% and add a dot at the beginning of the filename (the Unix-convention for rc files residing in your home directory).
Copy the *.dll files into the program folder of your LibreOffice installation.
copy the *.jar files somewhere, e.g. the classes subdirectory of the LibreOffice program directory.
Go to Tools/Options/Java. You should get with accessibility support in the Features column of the list of Java installations next to all of them. Select the latest Java installation that has the accessibility support.
Click on the Class Path ... button. Add the following two files with the Add Archive button D:\MyOOoInstallation\program\classes\access-bridge.jar and D:\MyOOoInstallation\program\classes\jaccess-1_4.jar. Note that the latter might be renamed in newer versions of the bridge. Just take the version smaller or equal than the Java version you installed and selected for usage in LibreOffice.
Go to Tools/Options/Accessibility and check the box near Support assistive technologies support.
Verify that the check box you set is still set in Tools/Options/Accessibility. If so, you are done. Else, I am sorry, then something went wrong.
Note that you might get problems when starting LibreOffice out of a debugger, because then the necessary dlls for the access bridge may not be found. Copying the dlls into the bin directory of your local solver environment might help in this case.

Today the European Parliament's plenary voted to boost the transition to the circular economy in Europe's most needy regions, with a landmark decision on the main EU's investment policy, the Cohesion Fund.
By setting eligibility criteria for EU investments in Member States, the Parliament is excluding financial support to waste incineration and other residual waste treatment facilities from the scope of the next funding period .
However, Zero Waste Europe is concerned about the exemptions allowing EU funding of waste burning plants in Europe's outermost regions, which risk to undermine their efforts towards better waste management.
The Parliament also voted to limit EU subsidies to landfills, with the exception for the outermost regions, and for improving the condition of existing landfills to comply with EU standards .
The three-way negotiations on the Cohesion Policy between governments, the European Parliament, and the European Commission are expected to start after the European elections.
 Cohesion funds shall not support – investment in facilities for the treatment of residual waste with the exception of outermost regions and in case of state-of-the-art recycling solutions in line with the principles of the circular economy and the waste hierarchy fully respecting the targets laid down in Art 11(2) of Directive (EU) 2008/98 and provided that Member States have established their waste management plans according to Art. 29 of Directive (EU) 2018/851.
 Cohesion funds shall not support- investment in disposal of waste in landfill, except in the outermost regions and for support for decommissioning, reconverting or making safe existing facilities and without prejudice to Article 4(2) of Directive (EU) 2008/98 of the European Parliament and of the Council.


I think that dress is great. Very sophisticated. The color and texture of the fabric work perfectly. Had to laugh about the dog because mine does the same thing. He has quite the reputation as a photo bomber.
Thanks K. I'm sure some dogs love the attention of the camera more than others. Blue seems to play up to it at the moment.
Hi Cheryl, you have to admit that Blues grey fur does compliment the colour of the dress nicely. The dress looks perfectly simple (not to make so much as I wouldn't know where to start, but to wear). Every time I see a photo of a pattern I can't help but think of my Mum, who used to (and probably still does) have loads of them.
I hadn't looked at her fur like that, but now you mention it, you are right. It does compliment. May give taking her to visit clients a miss though!
That dress is gorgeous. It makes me think of Autumn. You are so talented.

ETHICAL RESPONSE ON VACCINATION
Choosing between getting a vaccine should be a personal drive and motive that won't require an external push from stakeholders. Not taking into consideration the effects of not being vaccinated and how negative the impact can be on people around you should be a reason to claim and seek health independence for every human being. The guiding ethics vaccination provides for the individuals to participate in the process for the sake of public health and those who haven't. Despite f that, mandatory vaccination could be viewed as a form of discrimination, denial of freedom of making personal choices, and in cases where the refusal Is linked to religious beliefs, this could be termed as purposely denying citizens to participate in religious beliefs. This article will base an insightful discussion and response based on the articles written by Jessica Flanigan, a defense of compulsory vaccination and Kowalik's ethics of vaccine refusal. Also, the demonstration of understanding, criticization, and objection of arguments based on the two articles stated about the outbreak of Covid 19.
According to (Jessica 1, 12, 15 &21), There should be a prohibition on decisions to make in terms of whether to take vaccines or not. Taking vaccines should be mandatory for people so that they can live harmoniously in society. The government should induce heavy fines on people who refuse to follow the order because it is a risk to and for everyone. Flanigan J, compares the situation brought about by the vaccination processes to firing stray bullets in a residential area. This exposes several people to harm associated with the celebration that could be occurring. The person in charge of firing and injuring individuals could deny the charges, but until then, it's crystal clear that they are liable for the charges. In other countries and several states of America, where firing bullets is illegal, the same case could be related to health care whereby people who won't be taking vaccines be charged in the court of law. More so, vaccination could be highly required during instances where illness being vaccinated against is very contagious; for example, Covid 19, those exposed are not liable to it, vaccination is necessary and effective, and whereby the whole procedure of vaccination does not violate rights and self-defense of those taking it. Those who are not vaccinated are equally harmful to immune-suppressed individuals e.g., HIV patients, cancer, newborns, and organ transplant patients. However, companies are not supposed to forcefully or expose members to harmful agents that could also cause them suppression; this goes to the fact that despite vaccines being an efficient method of handling immunizable diseases, it caters to only 75% efficiency. In most cases, in order to curb the spread of a disease, violation of culture is allowed for the sake and safety of the whole society. This is according to the scenario that took place 100 years when the British came in to control the spread of smallpox.
Michael Kowalik is an independent researcher from an Australian university who wrote an excellent article based on the ethics of vaccine refusal in 2021 meant to shape and give a foresight of what it takes by not going for the vaccine of that deadly disease. In his article, he dealt with several issues which includes; mandatory universal vaccination for the sake of everyone else who snot in capabilities of taking the vaccine. Governments are also supposed to permit health officers to force citizens to take vaccines which are important to individuals. He also stated that any disease that is termed as harmful is a disaster that, when not managed, can cause a lot of problems to those who won't have followed instructions. In his intensive research, he concluded that the human ethics around health and vaccination could be according to herd immunity and the free-rider dilemma, which states that the risks can never be related to the benefits of the herd community (Kowalik 2). Also, self-constitution and inherent risk are whereby people with ontological links should not consider moral values and the social images being able to define their decision in terms of deciding whether to take vaccines or not. The benefits associated should be of greater importance.
Scientists coming up with a Covid 19 vaccine was the best upfront step taken globally, which required everyone's implementation. The disease was announced to be harmful, and by a sort period, it was very disastrous in that it was declared a global pandemic. Everyone who lived to see how it ravaged and shut down super countries like Italy, the united states, and china can agree that the trend in infection and its effects were unsafe. The lockdown, imposed in most states, was supposed to curb it and prevent much spread. The daily routine and practices of people were to be ignored for the sake of the there individuals' healthy beings. From the statistics taken from those infected and succumbed, most of the individuals were vulnerable to it due to underlying medical conditions, e.g., hypertensive, diabetic, and cancer. To ensure that the spread won't take more spread, the particular groups were considered first when the vaccination program began. Medical practitioners, army, and transport sectors were considered first because they provided essential services. The youthful population was also highly encouraged to participate in mass Covid vaccination( Raciborski et al 6). The process was catapulted by scientists coming up with more vaccines, i.e., AstraZeneca, Johnson and Johnson, and Pfizer vaccines. This was done to take care of those people who were in their old age and are suffered from several underlying conditions; their bodies could not fully respond positively to the vaccines the youth were to take for their sake. The vaccination process faced a lot of resistance and defiance from religious and even political groups who thought that the vaccine was not an excellent option for the community; the government of the United States of America had to take the mandate of ensuring everyone adhered to the ministry's wish. Since the disease is transmitted through contact with fluids of infected individuals, some measures are being implemented, e.g., ordering those without vaccination certificates not to visit public places, use public transport, and fully interact with the other population of `safe` individuals( little et al 13, 15, 22).
The Covid 19 vaccine has been made optional for citizens of many countries. This is a way of making them correspond to the rights of people as stipulated in various constitutions. As most individuals could argue out that maybe the process of vaccination shouldn't be optional and at the same time dictate that people should follow specific regulations, it is a simple call that everyone should consider being vaccinated. People should not consider their moral or religious influences to mishandle the health benefits associated with taking the vaccine. The regions where the vaccine was made mandatory have been reportedly improved in managing the spread. The fight is not only against the disease but also to salvage the immune-suppressed and other vulnerable members of society who depend on us.
It's formal that human decisions and actions and the social norms will either support or bring down the value of human life. Failure to take care of the concerns in honor of other people will devalue us. Therefore, the justification and implementation of mandatory vaccination of deadly diseases e.g. Covid 19 is made based on the implications of ignoring the consequences. The policies made to guard and guide the procedures of vaccinations have been tested before and are therefore efficient. It`s the role of the government to make sure that it is possible.

Our Sugar Grove medical malpractice lawyers understand the complicated nature of personal injury suits in Illinois, and will use that extensive knowledge to your advantage.
Medical professionals are required to provide a certain standard of care to their patients. When a doctor or other provider fails to meet that standard of care by acting negligently, he or she may be held responsible for the patient's damages. It is important to note that the medical professional's actions must have caused the patient's harm. Additionally, sometimes patients suffer harm or even death in cases that are not considered malpractice. For a case to qualify as medical malpractice, the doctor or other professional must have acted incompetently; that is, not as a competent provider would in a similar situation.
If a patient did suffer harm as a result of a medical professional's negligence or intentional actions, the patient may seek financial compensation for that harm. Often, malpractice victims seek damages such as medical bills, emotional pain and suffering, physical pain and suffering, and lost wages. If you suffered damages due to a negligent medical provider, you should consult a lawyer immediately. You may be entitled to financial compensation for your damages.
Medical malpractice cases can be quite complex, and it can be difficult to determine who exactly is responsible. The individual medical professional, the office or hospital, or other third parties may all be liable in your case. Every malpractice claim depends on the specific facts involved. State law also dictates limitations on how long a victim can wait before filing a malpractice case.
An experienced personal injury or malpractice lawyer can analyze the circumstances of your case to determine who is responsible. Often, medical experts are required to help malpractice victims win justice. Your attorney can work with the needed experts to ensure your best possible results.
At White & Ekker, P.C., we have successfully represented numerous clients throughout Kane County and throughout Chicagoland in medical malpractice suits. Our Sugar Grove medical malpractice lawyers are passionate about helping our clients through even the most difficult medical malpractice cases. We are dedicated to our clients' goals, and will always strive for sincere client satisfaction.

BRUCE ROBERTSON AWARDED SOVEREIGN'S MEDAL
Honour Proffered by the Governor General Recognizes Exceptional Volunteer Achievements
OTTAWA – Passion, dedication and commitment to community are the driving forces behind the volunteers who receive the Sovereign's Medal for Volunteers. The medal, which is part of the Canadian Honours System, recognizes the exceptional volunteer achievements of Canadians from across the country in a wide range of fields.
Bruce Robertson, Member of the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) Executive Board and past member of the Commonwealth Games Canada (CGC) Board of Directors, has been awarded the Sovereign's Medal in recognition of his exceptional contributions to the Commonwealth sport movement, both in Canada and internationally. A Member of the Order of Canada, Bruce has devoted countless volunteer hours to CGC for over 30 years as a Member-at-Large, Treasurer, Vice President, and as President of the Commonwealth Games Foundation of Canada. He has also served on various CGC committees, including a term as Chair of the International Development through Sport Advisory Committee as well as the International Relations Committee and the Bid and Hosting Committee.
A very successful competitive swimmer, he won two of Canada's total of five medals at the 1972 Munich Olympic Games, silver in the 100m butterfly and bronze in the 4x100m medley relay. At the 1973 World Aquatic Championships in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, he won the gold medal in the 100m butterfly and a relay bronze medal. He was also the most decorated Canadian athlete at the 1974 Commonwealth Games in Christchurch, New Zealand, winning a total of six medals. Bruce was named Canada's Male Athlete of the Year in 1973 and was awarded the Order of Canada a year later. In 1977, he was inducted into Canada's Sports Hall of Fame. He is also a member of the Canadian Aquatic Hall of Fame, the British Columbia Sports Hall of Fame, and the Canadian Olympic Hall of Fame.
Bruce has had significant impact within the Commonwealth Games movement internationally. Since 1990 he has volunteered his time, vision and expertise to drive forward the future direction of the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF), elected to senior positions on the Governing Body's Board and Committee structure including Finance Committee member, Regional Vice President, Audit and Risk Committee Chair, CGF Sport Committee Chair and, since 2003, CGF Vice-President.He has contributed countless hours and extensive expertise to the organisers of every Games since 2002 either as a member, or latterly as Chair, of the CGF Co-ordination Commission – the network of expert individuals appointed by the CGF charged with supporting and overseeing the work of Games' Organizing Committees.
Louise Martin, President of the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF), wrote in support of Bruce's nomination for the Sovereign Medal. "For over 30 years", she stated, "Bruce Robertson has made a significant yet selfless contribution to the Commonwealth Games and the Commonwealth Sports Movement, playing a fundamental role in our vision to unite athletes, citizens and communities across the Commonwealth through sport. During his tenure, his achievements have been manifold. He has led the reinvention of the CGF sports programme; the development of our ground-breaking and world-leading Gender Equality Strategy; the establishment of the Commonwealth Sport University Network; in addition to a host of initiatives focused on supporting athletes, coaches and officials and driving forward the governance, budgeting and management of the Commonwealth Games Federation. We are genuinely indebted to his service."
Commonwealth Games Canada congratulates Bruce on this honour", said CGC President Richard Powers. "His impact on Commonwealth sport, at home and abroad, is deep and enduring and reflects the shared values that are at the heart of the Commonwealth. Through sport, Bruce works tirelessly to instill those values into every citizen of the Commonwealth, uniting the diverse Commonwealth nations."
An official honour created by the Crown, the Sovereign's Medal for Volunteers has incorporated and replaced the Governor General's Caring Canadian Award, which was created in 1995, by then-Governor General the Right Honourable Roméo LeBlanc. The Sovereign's Medal for Volunteers consists of a silver circular medal that depicts a contemporary effigy of the Sovereign, circumscribed with the inscription in capital letters of the Canadian Royal Title and the word "CANADA", separated by two maple leaves. The reverse bears a large and a small heart interlaced, set with five maple leaves on the outer edge of the large heart which is surmounted by a coronet bearing three maple leaves.

Can we make a sustainable plan from coast to coast along the A66?
Eden Arts are working with consultants from EY and Creative Tourist Consults and Lateral North to create a blueprint for sustainable collective working along the A66 from North Sea to Irish Sea.
The ambitious plan, supported by all the local authorities along the way, is designed to promote the region and come up with cultural solutions and ideas that will see social and cultural and economic benefit in places that perhaps feel left out or overlooked. In both east - Teesside and west - the Cumbria coast there are places that have been affected by the decline of old industry, in the places between across the Pennines and Lakes there are places with low population and rural isolation. How do we see creativity and culture playing a part in the future of these places? Can culture provide some leadership in thinking and doing?
In a time of climate change how do we respond to the notion of culture and tourism - what role does it play?
Through early spring 2019 we will be meeting with stakeholders and holding workshops in Copeland, Allerdale, Eden, County Durham and Tees Valley to help us to understand the issues and formulate a plan for future collaborative working.
We are holding stakeholder consultation events across the Route 66 North area.


Many institutional reforms of Japan's corporate law system have occurred since the 1990s, such as the introduction of a stock option (1997), removal of the ban on pure holding companies (1997), enactment of the Corporate Law (2005), announcement of Principles for Responsible Institutional Investors (2014), and Japan's Corporate Governance Code (2015). Japanese authorities expect that these institutional reforms will stimulate Japanese firms and revitalize the Japanese economy. This book will try to make clear the contents of recent trends in corporate management, such as the growing importance of stock options, corporate diversification, and division of corporations and use micro data on listed companies to analyze quantitatively the influences such corporate management trends have had on corporate behavior and business performance.

Forecastle Festival 2013: Photos + Recap - Day Two
By Rachel Haas and Lori Keong | July 14, 2013 | 7:00pm
Photos by Julia Rickles and Haley O'Brian Music Galleries
Cloudy skies loomed over the second day of Forecast Fest as we prepared for a long day with some our favorite acts in the lineup. Inclement weather, however, put a damper on all of the festivities when we were asked to evacuate for an hour. Acts were delayed and sets cut short, but the musicians brought their A-game, saving a day that was near-disaster.
Shovels and Rope
To kick off our second day at Forecastle, Shovels and Rope served the crowd gritty Southern rock jams that had people head bobbing and toe tapping. As the sun beat high over our heads, they really won us over with a stomping, mile-a-minute version of "Kemba" where they sang, "Come to Carolina and your drink's on me." My favorite moment of the set was when Cary Ann Hearst took over the drums and Michael played the electric guitar, breaking into bluesy rock 'n' roll. It was the perfect way to start the day on a high note. -Lori Keong
Foxygen
If Wayne Coyne (Flaming Lips) shows up to watch, you know you're in for something awesome. Well, that awesome set at Forecastle was Foxygen. Part concert and part theatrical stage performance, frontman Sam France jumped on speakers, channeled his inner gargoyle and rolled about on the stage, all with a permanent smile on his face. Fans went nuts for the wildly entertaining band—the only damper being a late start and early finish that irked some attendees. -Rachel Haas
Kurt Vile & the Violators
Watching Kurt Vile and his band was like spending a day with your friends (if your friends were in a cool rock band and looked like they'd just stepped out of Dazed and Confused).Vile provided one of the first performances post-evacuation and delivered a very chill get-to-know-you-again, welcome-back hangout. -Rachel Haas
The Joy Formidable
The Joy Formidable emerged on stage with a grin and channeled positive vibes all throughout their set. "The storm clouds have blown away, so let's have a good time," lead singer Ritzy Brian crowed. The band had plenty of cheerful banter to throw back and forth between songs and heavily encouraged audience participation. Their lively energy was contagious and was the perfect pick-me-up that we needed after the weather delays. -Lori Keong
Taking the main stage before an impressively-sized crowd, Alabama Shakes wowed all those present with their passionate yet somehow intimate sound. Brittany Howard was on the soft-spoken side when she chattered with the audience but, for the most, it was a no nonsense show: minimal filler, maximum music. "I wouldn't bullshit you, that's not in my nature," Howard said during the show. "Or would I?" When it comes to playing, it's no bullshit—it's all real. -Rachel Haas
Jim James
While Jim James may seem like a quiet guy with folk sensibilities, he is a wild, unforgettable performer. You know those private jam sessions where you jump around, toss your hair wildly, and make like you're slaying the guitar to a fake audience? Well, Jim James did all of that and more on Saturday evening, playing to a huge crowd that followed his every move. Leading his set with "State of the Art," he rolled into more jiving numbers, and his backing band rocked an epic drum solo on three kits. James even twirled around, raising a golden panda in the hair, like a tribal shaman. One of the best of the night? Check. -Lori Keong and Rachel Haas
For the Flaming Lips show, consider every square foot of the green covered with people clambering to see Wayne Coyne as he climbed atop a mound of light-up electrical tubes—"jellyfish," as many people called them. A woman behind me yelled, "You're my kind of weird!!!" at Coyne, and I have to say I couldn't agree more. Like an outer space king, the zany Lips frontman beamed a flashlight on us, blew bubbles at us and smiled at a fake baby that he held in his arms. He also conducted the audience as they raised their fists to "The W.A.N.D" and went dreamy-eyed to a slowed-down version of "Do You Realize???" Long live the Lips. -Lori Keong
Shit, Matt & Kim, you guys sure know how to put on a great live show. You come out, guns blazing, quoting Jay-Z before throwing on samples of super-danceable tracks like Salt 'n Pepa's "Push It" and "Apache (Jump On It)" and managing to meld them perfectly with your own personal brand of energetic tuneage. There are random dance interludes, free merch and wacky antics—but the music never falters. Yeah, you two might be a little strange, but I love you for it. Everyone thanks you for an amazing time. -Rachel Haas
After a tiring day at the festival, The Black Keys picked up the slack from delays by tearing through a set of new El Camino songs mixed in with favorites from Brothers and as guitarist Dan Auerbach put it, an "oldie but a goodie"—"Strange Times." Staring off their set with a roar on "Howlin' for You," they rocked and rolled at a pace that left our heads and hips struggling to catch up. Having never seen the Black Keys live before, I was impressed by how grounded and tight they sounded, considering that they hardly gave themselves the opportunity to take a breather. The most impressive part was hearing the crowd whistle together on "Tighten Up" and bust loose to their shaking version of "Lonely Boy." I couldn't wipe the dumb grin off my face when the flashing lights came up on a 'Black Keys' sign as they closed their hour and a half-long set. -Lori Keong
Photographers Julia Rickles and Haley O'Brian were on site to capture some festival moments, too. View their photos in the gallery below, and stay tuned for mroe Forecastle coverage in the coming days.

Happy almost spring, although many of you are still being hit with snow and ice!
I want to continue the theme I began 2 months ago where I discuss "upstreamists", those who are "going upstream" to find the cause of problems in our healthcare system, and then working directly to create change. Last month I profiled Health Leads, a nonprofit organization that is providing information and connection for low-income patients, as well as providing access to many wrap-around services that affect health and wellbeing, such as having adequate food, transportation, and heat in the winter.
Yesterday I had a very stimulating conversation with a young physician who had just finished medical school in the UK. He felt drawn to medicine by his desire to help others, like most doctors, but he did not gravitate to a particular specialty. Instead, he's been traveling around the US talking to upstreamists in order to tap into their experiences. His network includes those that create technological tools that try to fix some discreet dysfunctional piece of healthcare, rather than affecting the whole system. All of the projects he told me about were lovely little gems. But there is a problem with creating beautiful gems.
When you have something that is rotten underneath, applying beautiful gems to it does not cure the problem; it remains rotten. We need to look deeper to figure out what we can do to impact our healthcare system, from the inside out.
We're changing health care from the ground up.
We believe better health care starts with better primary care. Our simple yet radically different approach to restoring humanity to health care is three-fold: Team-based care that puts the patient first, a payment system based on care, not billing codes and technology built around people, not process. ……….
Our care team, which includes a dedicated advocate for each patient, works together to treat the whole person. We see people when they're sick, but also when they're well, so that we can keep them healthy. Here, the environment is caring and patients have a voice. It's our job to give them everything they need to live happier and healthier lives.
Here is a short version, but I really urge you to watch the longer one—its way more inspiring.
And a freebie thrown in: The Hot Spotters is the seminal article on change in the healthcare system, by Dr. Atul Gawande, published in the New Yorker. This is a must read in my opinion, to know where the "rot" is. It would not be an exaggeration to say that this article changed my life.


A chance encounter with Bob Dylan in 1993 led to an ongoing friendship for Irish band The Frames and a spot supporting their musical hero on his current Australian tour.
Unbeknown to The Frames, Dylan was rehearsing in the same Dublin building as they were 14 years ago when the iconic singer/songwriter appeared in the doorway of their studio.
"I couldn't believe he was there because we hadn't heard he was in the building. It was all kept very secret," The Frames frontman Glen Hansard said.
"I just said to him, 'Meeting you is what it must have been like when you met Woody,' because his hero is Woody Guthrie.
"I must have said the right thing because ... we spoke for what was probably two to three minutes about Woody Guthrie, but it felt like an hour to me."
The next day one of Dylan's people phoned The Frames at their rehearsal space.
"So we went over, had the f---ing best time, again met him and said thank you very much."
Since then the band have been welcomed into Dylan's inner circle, which includes Van Morrison and Elvis Costello.
"Dylan's camp is very tight but they're really friendly," Hansard said.
They are now supporting the 66-year-old folk-country-rock legend on his Australian and New Zealand tour, which hits Sydney tonight before continuing on to Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Auckland.
"We've been doing really well and his people are great," Hansard said.
"I even ended up using his guitar for a few gigs, which was pretty amazing for me.
"I couldn't have really asked for anything better."
For an Irish lad raised on songs such as Blowin' in the Wind and The Times They Are a-Changin', it is a dream come true.
"My mother raised me on Dylan," Hansard said.
"In my house when I was a kid there was the holy trinity, which was Leonard Cohen, Van Morrison and Bob Dylan, with Bob sitting centre.
"So for me it's been a huge honour."


We've got a whiteboard up in the office with a list on it of all the little jobs we have to do around the house. A day or so ago, one of the items was "Bodge shoe storage". Now, I find that quite impressive: we've only been at this DIY game for a week, and already we've progressed to bodging.
Actually, it worked out quite well. We had some drawer units (from Ikea, naturally) that we used to use inside our wardrobes for clothes storage. They were a fairly simple construction, with a wooden frame and slots for plastic bins to use as drawers. We kept one of the drawers at the top for keys, wallets and other ephemera that you need close to the front door, then cut pieces of plywood as shelves to store our shoes. It looks pretty good, but has that crucial, slightly bodged, 'we made this', Blue Peter-ish vibe.


Whilst driving in to San Diego this morning I had about a mile of clear road ahead of me on the inside lane before the next car, the outside lane was bumper-to-bumper, brakes on every 5 seconds, and I was reminded of the old saying "Only a fool breaks the three second rule". And then I remembered that it was later changed to "Only a fool breaks the two second rule". Did the population get quicker reaction times in between time? And, now, is it down to one second?? Too bad Jimmy Saville isn't around to let us know [*].
Got a parcel yesterday: european parcel shelf, aux input and glove box organiser now joining the seat covers in the office. Now if only I had the vehicle to put them in. I'm going to have to get the XM Direct real soon, too. Going to be quite the 'install party' first weekend I have it.
[*] Apologies to all the American readers who probably have no clue what I am on about. Speaking of England, I am flying out tonight to spend a week there so there probably won't be any updates for a while.

Key Options And a Delay!
[Update 2:]Now the schedule page says it will arrive August 12th, maybe by the time it gets here it will be back on track. Either way, it looks like maybe an August 20th ribbon cutting ceremony at South Bay MINI.
[Update:] The schedule page for the OOCL Faith now shows her arriving in Los Angeles on Aug 15th – a full 6 days later than previously announced. Argh, the first real delay of my order process.
Day Running Lights – want the low beams on all the time when you're driving?
Pathway Lighting – how long do you want the high beams to stay on after shutdown?
Central Locking – do you want the doors to automatically lock when you start moving?
Conspicuous by its absence its the ability to open/close the roof from the key. According to the MINI forums this is no longer a standard option as there have been 'liability' issues (some people need to get some self-responsibility) so you have to ask for it. And even then, some dealers are refusing to program it. I was told that if I wanted it, to write it on the form: I did.
Author adminPosted on July 26, 2005 Categories My MINI6 Comments on Key Options And a Delay!
Ever since choosing Dark Silver I've just assumed that the bonnet stripes have to be black, but today I saw a picture of white stripes and dark silver and have to say it looks real good. Methinks I will have to wait until it comes and experiment with some mockups.
My seat covers came at the weekend, they smell awful (gotta love new neoprene!) but look real great, I think they are gonna be gorgeous in the car.
Some alarm system or other – standard alarm is $567 installed, maybe I should do Lojack or something else?
According to ASK-MINI, MNIAV8R is now in transit but didn't have any shipping information to share. The only boats I know about are a K-Line ship that left last Friday and a WW one that left yesterday. There is still no information on the WW shipping line so maybe it made it on last Friday's K-Line ship?
[Update:] Looking at the K-Line schedule page I see that last Friday's sailing got bumped to Sunday so I am feeling hopeful that I am on the OOCL Faith. It arrives in L.A. August 9th. You can see its most recently reported-position here (but it shows the ship arriving at Southampton last week).
Author adminPosted on July 19, 2005 Categories My MINI1 Comment on En Route!
Google Maps are cool. Ian C's auto-up window circuit for the MINI is cool. Now Blalor has combined the two to give you a google map showing all the locations that Ian has sold to. For a long time Ian has maintained a map but the Google Maps API presents an opportunity to do so much more with it. Full props to Blalor for having such a great idea and working it out.
Wow, I had read that it might take a week for my new delivery to make it to Southampton but according to ASK-MINI it is already there waiting for a ship, though no shipping information is currently available. Maybe it will make tomorrow's sailing of the OOCL Faith after all?
Not sure if I ever said somewhere else but I am retiring UKPYLOT with this purchase. The new MINI will be 'MNI AV8R' and, very possibly, named Louise but that's still under discussion….
Author adminPosted on July 14, 2005 Categories My MINI1 Comment on At the Port!!
I've seen a couple of dark silver cabrio MCS' this week so I am going to need to make mine a little more individual from the get-go. I've always planned on putting a decal on the rear window but maybe I will get it now rather than wait a while. I want to put an England flag in the back but, as I said earlier, I don't want people thinking I'm a Red Cross vehicle or an ambulance (for midgets?). The England flag regularly appears with the word "England" across it so thats what I will get. Here are some candidate designs that I've stolen off the web – your opionions please!
Update: Given the likelihood of my MINI being on a K-Line ship, I took a look at their schedule. They have sailings to LA every Friday. I can't see it making on the OOCL Faith which leaves this Friday, but maybe the PONL Sidney which leaves on the 22nd (arrives Aug 15) or the Cape Charles which leaves on the 29th and arrives Aug 22nd. Its going to be painful if I don't find out which one!
Author adminPosted on July 12, 2005 Categories My MINI1 Comment on Awaiting Transport!
My new MINI is still in production, still due to be completed by July 12th. Now, to me,' due by' means before but not including so it should have been done today. Hmmpf! Now, this may be splitting hairs but we're talking one less day's waiting if it were true. Perhaps tomorrow.

L'Hispano Aviación HA-100 Triana era un monomotore da addestramento ad ala bassa realizzato dall'azienda aeronautica spagnola Hispano Aviación negli anni cinquanta e rimasto allo stadio di prototipo.

Progettato dall'ingegnere aeronautico tedesco Willy Messerschmitt fu il velivolo che per primo segnò la collaborazione tra l'ex direttore e progettista della Messerschmitt e l'azienda spagnola che ne aveva prodotto su licenza il caccia Bf 109.

Storia del progetto
Nel giugno 1951 il Ministerio del Aire de España emise una specifica per la fornitura di un nuovo velivolo da assegnare ai reparti di addestramento dell'Ejército del Aire che potesse sostituire gli Hispano-Suiza HS-42 ed Hispano Aviación HA-43 nella formazione dei suoi piloti. Al concorso decise di partecipare la Hispano Aviación affidando la progettazione ad una società esterna, la Oficina Técnica Prof. Messerschmitt che il progettista tedesco Willy Messerschmitt aveva deciso di aprire in Spagna a causa del divieto dello sviluppo autoctono dell'aviazione postbellica imposto alla Germania al termine della seconda guerra mondiale.  Il disegno, il primo sviluppato da Messerschmitt dopo il termine del conflitto, sarebbe poi stato fornito alla Hispano Aviación che avrebbe provveduto a costruirne il prototipo presso il suo stabilimento di Siviglia, esattamente nel quartiere cittadino di Triana che venne citato nella designazione ufficiale del velivolo.

Messerschmitt, che svolse il lavoro di progettazione principalmente a Siviglia ma anche a Monaco di Baviera, iniziò a disegnare il nuovo velivolo nel dicembre 1951 ma dovette affrontare, fin dall'inizio della fase di sviluppo, problemi sempre maggiori a causa delle difficoltà nell'acquisto di molti elementi costruttivi e componenti del velivolo, principalmente il motore e l'impianto di raffreddamento, parti del carrello di atterraggio, strumenti e componenti standard.

L'HA-100 Triana, come era stato designato il velivolo, venne progettato per poter essere in grado di gestire due attività: la formazione degli allievi di primo livello, equipaggiandolo con un motore radiale da 450 CV (330 kW]), e la formazione dei piloti ad uno stadio avanzato, per il quale il motore avrebbe avuto una potenza superiore pari a 900 CV (590 kW). Esternamente le due versioni avrebbero differito solo nel supporto per il motore. La velocità massima raggiungibile per la versione da addestramento basico era di 387 km/h, mentre per la seconda versione questa era accreditata di 478 km/h. Il Triana avrebbe quindi potuto essere utilizzabile non solo per formare piloti comuni, ma anche per la formazione preliminare dei piloti da caccia, per la quale era equipaggiato con una coppia di mitragliatrici fisse in caccia o una fotomitragliatrice. Inoltre il Triana, opportunamente equipaggiato, sarebbe stato utile anche per addestrare i piloti dei cacciabombardieri.

La costruzione del prototipo subì dei ritardi sulla tabella prevista in quanto alla Hispano Aviación non erano presenti strutture per le prove statiche e dinamiche e non poté essere completato che nel 1953. Per la sua motorizzazione ci si rivolse alla Empresia Nacional De Motores De Aviación S.A. (ENMASA) che avrebbe dovuto fornire il radiale Sirio da 450 CV (330 kW) ma che, a causa delle difficoltà con i rifornimenti, non era ancora disponibile e per questo si dovette utilizzare un motore più pesante, il Beta dello stesso produttore. Questo era uno sviluppo del sovietico Shvetsov ASh-25 (o M-25), il Wright R-1820 Cyclone 9 prodotto su licenza in Unione Sovietica che equipaggiava i Polikarpov I-15 "Chato" ed I-16 "Rata" della Fuerzas Aéreas de la República Española durante la guerra civile spagnola, e costruito a Barcellona durante il conflitto. Altri ritardi furono accumulati per il ritardo nell'ottenere la certificazione al volo con il nuovo motore e nella fornitura di componenti per la sua costruzione, come ad esempio le ruote del carrello d'atterraggio, provenienti dal Regno Unito.

Tuttavia, pur nelle difficoltà incontrate, l'HA-100-E1 riuscì ad essere portato in volo per la prima volta dal pilota collaudatore Rafael Lorenzo Vellido, un istruttore della Escuela Militar de Aviación, il 10 dicembre 1953, solamente 26 mesi dopo la firma del contratto per la costruzione di un prototipo. Durante le prove in volo i problemi incontrati nell'equipaggiare il velivolo con il motore Beta suggerirono la sua sostituzione, nel secondo prototipo HA-100F, con un radiale Wright R-1300 Cyclone 7 da 800 hp (596 kW), quest'ultimo portato in volo nel febbraio 1955. I buoni risultati ottenuti non poterono però essere concretizzati in quanto mancavano le risorse economiche per acquistare i motori statunitensi. Pur avendo ottenuto una commessa per 40 esemplari, che secondo le convenzioni dell'aviazione militare spagnola assunsero la designazione E.12, nel 1956 il governo spagnolo annullò l'ordine per formalizzare l'acquisto degli statunitensi North American T-28A Trojan. La produzione venne quindi arrestata e le cellule già realizzate vennero smantellate ed in parte riutilizzate per la costruzione del successivo Hispano Aviación HA-200 Saeta che avevano in comune, oltre a particolari minori, ali ed impennaggio.

Tecnica
L'HA-100 Triana era un velivolo di costruzione interamente metallica dall'aspetto convenzionale che ricalcava le caratteristiche salienti dei pari ruolo dello stesso periodo, monomotore monoplano ad ala bassa con carrello retrattile.

La fusoliera a sezione circolare era caratterizzata da un abitacolo a due posti in tandem dotato di doppi comandi chiuso da un lungo tettuccio apribile a scorrimento. Posteriormente terminava in un impennaggio cruciforme monoderiva con piani orizzontali montati a sbalzo.

La configurazione alare era monoplana, con l'ala montata a sbalzo bassa sulla fusoliera, realizzata in due semiali con struttura monolongherone dotate di alettoni a fessura che Messerschmitt aveva già utilizzati con buoni risultati nei suoi precedenti modelli e che potevano essere attuati manualmente attraverso un semplice dispositivo cinematico.

Il carrello d'atterraggio era di tipo triciclo anteriore, completamente retraibile ed azionato da un circuito idraulico, quello principale nell'ala con movimento delle due gambe di forza verso l'interno, quello anteriore con movimento retrogrado.

La propulsione era affidata ad un motore radiale, che variò di modello nei due prototipi senza adottare quello precedentemente stabilito ma che manteneva l'identica collocazione all'apice anteriore della fusoliera e racchiuso in una cappottatura metallica composta di soli quattro parti ed ermetica per evitare l'accumulo di sporcizia inglobata dall'apertura anteriore.

Versioni
HA-110
versione prevista, addestratore basico equipaggiato con un motore radiale ENMASA Sirio da 450 CV (336 kW), non costruito.
HA-100E-1
addestratore basico, il prototipo volò equipaggiato con un radiale ENMASA Beta da 755 CV (555 kW), realizzato in un solo esemplare.
HA-100F-1
addestratore avanzato, equipaggiato con un radiale Wright R-1300 da 800 hp (596 kW) ed equipaggiamento bellico in rack subalari opzionale, realizzato in un solo esemplare.

AUD/JPY continues to fall after the earlier breakout of the support level 110.50 (which reversed the price at the start of April, as can be seen from the daily AUD/JPY chart below). The breakout of this support level should accelerate the active impulse waves 3 and (5). AUD/JPY is expected to fall toward the next sell target at next support level 80.50 (low of the previous impulse wave (3)).


1. You will arrive, and we will discuss the process of the shoot, what you're going to wear, and what looks are going for.
2. We will take a few test shots, and if you have a makeup artist, she will be applying makeup to you.
3. We will begin the shoot, and we will make sure to cover each look that you wanted to get covered, assuming there's enough time. For certain people, we need extra time to shoot with, because they are less comfortable in front of the camera.
4. As the session progresses, I will show images from the back of the camera to you for your approval. You will have the opportunity to look at the shots, this way we can make adjustments, and go for things that look better to you.
5. Once the headshot session is done, we'll put the memory card into the computer, and review all the photos. If you've chosen to shoot the session that is longer than 30 min., we will have time to go through the images and delete the ones that are the unusable. However, during the 30 min. session, I burned straight from the card, so you will get all of the images that were taken during the headshot session.
6. I will burn the CD for you after you've approved all the images. You will be able to leave with the disc with all full resolution images in your hands, and after you walk out the door, my reissued policy will be a 50% off discount if you would like more images. To be able to receive the discount, you have to contact me within 14 days of the photo shoot.

The PCR-based analysis of low load bacterial and fungal DNA demands a Taq DNA polymerase that is highly active over extended cycle numbers, and at the same time free of contaminating microbial DNA.
In this application note, Linow  provides an overview of the specifications of Molzym's newly developed Hot MolTaq 16S/18S. Discussed characters cover the amplification activity over 40 cycles against different target amounts, suppression of non-specific amplifications and the absence of microbial contaminations in negative controls. Further, a comparative study of Molzym's Hot MolTaq 16S/18S with other hot start Taq DNA polymerases declared as low contaminated is shown.

BLAST BALL
Now Kids as Young as 3 Years Old Can Be A Part of The PAL Astros Experience
BlastBall!® or as we like to call it at PAL- BLASTROS Ball !!
Baseball is still America's pastime, with over 47.5 million kids under 18 years of age participating in organized youth leagues across America.
BlastBall!®provides an ideal entry level of play for the youngster who will go on to other advanced levels of the game.
It is designed to generate fast-paced action, provide recreation and exercise, create enthusiasm and generate excitement for the game of baseball for the youth participants in the game.
BlastBall!® teaches all five basic fundamentals of baseball and softball…hitting, throwing, catching, running and fielding. It is also just a ton of fun with fast and continuous action and simple rules.
BlastBall!® is played with a maximum of 5 players per team. A smaller number, such as 2-3 players per team works equally well.
The defensive players take an infield or outfield position. A BlastBall is placed on the BlastTee and the first batter hits the ball and runs to the BlastBase. If the batter reaches the Base (the only base used) before a defensive player either catches the BlastBall in the air (an automatic out) or fields it and yells "BLAST ", he scores a run. If the ball is caught or fielded and "BLAST " is yelled before the runner gets to the BlastBase, then the runner is out. It's just that simple!
You may end the (half) inning by batting once around the line-up or making 3 outs. For younger players it is recommended that everyone bat, every inning and you may not even want to keep score.
The BlastBase is audible, emitting a loud "H O N K " that the kids love whenever the runner stomps on the base. When fielded, the defensive player can simply throw the BlastBall back to another player or an adult/coach Gloves can be used but are not needed because of the softness and size of the Ball. The fear factor of being hit is eliminated from the game all together. While batting helmets are not needed because the BlastBall is not being pitched or thrown to make the out, for optimum safety helmets can be used.
The cost is only $60 and sign up is done completely online. There are no practices and games are held Saturday mornings at PAL Park. Sign up today and tell everybody that PAL is the place to be for all of the fun that is... PAL BLASTROS Ball!
PAL BLASTROS will begin play in Early April and will continue through the first weekend on June. Games will be played at 10am on Saturday mornings.
If you have any questions about BlastBall, please contact David Zeman dmzannapolis@gmail.com or 410-353-7777. The BlastBall coordinator will be in contact with registrants sometime in late March with additional information.

Q: Appending Child Fails without Exception I have a JSON file that stores an array of objects. In the object, I have a property named url that stores the URL to a YouTube video. Once I fetch the JSON file and loop over the objects I am creating an <iframe> that sets the src to the url property. Here is the method I am using:
const update = (information, selector) => {
    const parent = document.querySelector(selector);
    if (!information) {
        const rootParent = parent.parentNode;
        rootParent.remove();
        return
    }

    parent.querySelector('h4').innerText = information.title;
    parent.querySelector('h6').innerText = information.dateFormatted;

    const iframe = document.createElement('iframe');
    iframe.setAttribute('height', '315');
    iframe.setAttribute('width', '560');
    iframe.setAttribute('frameborder', '0');
    iframe.setAttribute('src', information.url);
    parent.appendChild(iframe);
}

The issue is that the first call to the method works fine, but after the second iteration when it makes the call again it fails on the parent.appendChild line.
If I setup a try/catch and setup a breakpoint in the catch, the catch never gets fired. It isn't even being hit if I add a debugger statement to it.
What could be causing this and more importantly, why isn't the debugger being triggered?
