TOO DEEP OF HOLE
GBHS cant recover from 35-18 halftime deficit, falls to Manhattan

MANHATTAN — If you're looking for a turning point in Great Bend High School's girls' basketball matchup with Manhattan, glance no further than first-half action during Saturday's matinee session at the MHS gymnasium.
In a tale of two halves, unbeaten Manhattan opened up a 19-9 lead after one quarter and expanded the margin to 35-18 at halftime.
Although GBHS made some noise after the break, outscoring Manhattan 30-24 in the final 16 minutes, the Lady Indians held on for a 59-50 victory to improve to 4-0 on the season.
"We had a really slow first half," Great Bend head coach Carrie Minton said. "Matchup-wise, Manhattan is a very athletic team and we just felt like we didn't do our part.
"We gave up a lot of offensive boards, putback points and second-chance points, so we dug ourselves a hole in the first half. When you say a turning point, it was just getting off to a slow start."
After making some adjustments at halftime, the Lady Panthers were able to disrupt Manhattan's offensive flow to make a run at the Tribe.
"We came out and outscored them in the second half," Minton said. "We turned up the intensity, and we got to playing the type of basketball that we like to play."
Trailing 42-24 at the five-minute mark in the third period, GBHS finally started hitting its stride, uncorking a 9-0 burst to close within 42-33 at the 3:11 mark. Morgan Harwood made a 3-ball from the left-corner pocket, Regan Unruh hit a wing shot, Harwood scored inside and then Kelsie Doll drove in for a layup.
After MHS finally ended its drought, Kylee Spray popped in a 3-pointer from the right wing before Manhattan answered on the other end, making it 50-36 after three quarters.
"The girls did a really good job of forcing some turnovers," Minton said. "I think there were a few times, unfortunately, that we would get a steal and then we'd turn around and give the ball right back to them.
"We put out all of that effort to go after it and get the ball on defense. We just need to make sure that we take care of it on offense."
Spray continued to her barrage of 3s in the final eight minutes, swishing back-to-back to pull the Lady Panthers within 56-43 with 3:52 left.
But MHS held on for the win.
"We're sitting at 3-2 and that's a positive going into the Christmas break," Minton said. "It's nice to have a little bit of time now to look back at some of the things that we've faced in the early part of the season — five different ball clubs — and we feel really good about the things that the girls are doing.
"It gives us an opportunity to make some adjustments and to work on some things before we get into the conference part of our schedule."
Harwood and Mauler finished with 10 points apiece, and Unruh finished with nine points.

Welcome to the Larkhill Choral Society website.
Larkhill Choral Society wishes their Musical Director Sarit Aloni well in her exciting new venture setting up the Young Larks Choir and are happy to host a link to the new choir for children aged 8 to 12. For more information and registration visit the 'Young Larks Choir' tab HERE.
We owe our thanks to Wiltshire Council, through the Amesbury Area Board, for their generous grant to us in the summer of 2016. This enabled us to purchase our own Yamaha keyboard and accessories and also to upgrade and develop our sound system. This equipment has been a great asset in both our summer and Christmas concerts as well as in rehearsal sessions. Much appreciated!
"We meet the Larkhill Choral Society, who are on the lookout for new singers".
LARKHILL Choral Society performed Autumn and Winter of The Seasons by Haydn just before Christmas at the Larkhill Regimental Church.
It was so good it made me go home and buy a CD...All this was suggested by the Stella Quartet - quite an achievement from four stringed instruments and a harpsichord. Mists and metaphors fitted the Salisbury Plain music – making exactly in this winter concert. There were great risks and great rewards for both audience and performers on this extraordinary night in December.

I beautiful story. The teacher and father are one and the same? This piece had a real nice feel about it.
This was really sweet and had good attention to detail. Such a touching story. Well done.
Nice flow (no pun intended) I like how the ending could be sweet or tragic.
Seemed to me as though the daughter was mute, which makes her affinity with painting and colour all the more touching.
I thought, "Deaf? Mute? Both?" and painting was her way of communicating. Nice.
Great teacher – great story full of images.
Lovely story. I too read that the daughter was deaf, which made the relationship of father and daughter more touching.
I have worked with a mute child. It is amazing how much they can communicate without words. Very touching.
Like it. A protective/teacher/father doing what teachers/fathers should do.


My goodness! It's been over a month since I last posted. May has been an absolutely balls-to-the-wall crazy month for us over here. Justin applied for and got a promotion, we've been trying to rent our basement, and I started my own business. Add trying to find child care for Anna into the mix and you have one set of stressed-out parents. That said, I've done a lot of cooking; I just haven't had the opportunity to post!
I was lucky to have been able to attend a cookbook launch back in April. Lick Your Plate by Julie Albert and Lisa Gnat is an absolutely delicious and gorgeous Canadian cookbook, complete with step-by-step guides to tasty recipes. I've been cooking a lot of recipes from their book lately. This recipe is one of my new favourites!
The salsa was extremely fresh tasting. Complete with lots of fresh veggies, mango, cilantro and lime juice. Hmm!
Here it is. Ready to top some tasty coconut-crusted fish!
Now, make three bowls. First one has seasoning salt and flour. Mix well to combine.
Next plate has an egg and lime juice. Beat with a fork.
Next plate has panko breadcrumbs and shredded coconut.
Dredge the sole filet in the flour.
Then the coconut and panko.
The recipe asks you to fry the fillets, but I prefer baking them.
They got nice and crispy in the oven.
Top the fish with the salsa and serve alongside some wild rice and you have yourself a fresh-tasting and delicious meal.
Begin by dicing all of the salsa ingredients into small pieces. Add to a bowl and mix in lime juice, lime zest and cilantro. Set aside in the fridge. For the fish, take out three separate bowls. In the first, combine flour and seasoning salt. In the second, combine eggs and lime juice. In the third, combine panko and shredded coconut. Line a baking sheet with tinfoil and preheat oven to 375. Dredge a fillet in flour, then egg, then panko. Place on a baking sheet. Repeat for all fillets and bake at 375 for 20 mins, until fish is crispy. Serve topped with mango lime salsa. Enjoy!


Peter J. Klenow has been a consultant at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis since 2009. He served as a senior economist at the Minneapolis Fed from 2000 to 2003. Pete currently teaches economics at Stanford University, where he has held the Ralph Landau Chair in Economics since 2003. He has also taught at the University of Chicago. He has been an associate editor for the Quarterly Journal of Economics since 2008, and is currently an associate editor for Econometrica and the Journal of Political Economy. In the past he has served as an associate editor for the American Economic Review, the Journal of Economic Perspectives, the Review of Economic Dynamics, and the B.E. Journal in Macroeconomics.
Pete received his Ph.D. in economics from Stanford University in 1991. His work has appeared in several prominent economics journals, among them the American Economic Review, the Quarterly Journal of Economics, and the Journal of Political Economy. His research focuses on the macroeconomic implications of micro data on productivity and prices.
Employment and hours appear far more cyclical than dictated by the behavior of productivity and consumption. This puzzle has been called "the labor wedge" — a cyclical intratemporal wedge between the marginal product of labor and the marginal rate of substitution of consumption for leisure. The intratemporal wedge can be broken into a product market wedge (price markup) and a labor market wedge (wage markup). Based on the wages of employees, the literature has attributed the intratemporal wedge almost entirely to labor market distortions. Because employee wages may be smoothed versions of the true cyclical price of labor, we instead examine the self-employed and intermediate inputs, respectively. Looking at the past quarter century in the United States, we find that price markup movements are at least as important as wage markup movements — including during the Great Recession and its aftermath. Thus, sticky prices and other forms of countercyclical markups deserve a central place in business cycle research, alongside sticky wages and matching frictions.
This study describes how the U.S. government measures real consumption growth and how it tries to take account of a complicating factor: that the goods and services offered to consumers change over time; new products are introduced and old products are improved. The 1996 Boskin Commission critique of this government methodology is described, along with the changes made in response to that critique. Also described is recent research related to how real consumption growth should be measured in the presence of new and better products.
Models with sticky prices predict that monetary policy changes will affect relative prices and relative quantities in the short run because some prices are more flexible than others. In U.S. micro data, the degree of price stickiness differs dramatically across consumption categories. This study exploits that diversity to ask whether popular measures of monetary shocks (for example, innovations in the federal funds rate) have the predicted effects. The study finds that they do not. Short-run responses of relative prices have the wrong sign. And monetary policy shocks seem to have persistent effects on both relative prices and relative quantities, rather than the transitory effects one would expect from differences in price flexibility across goods. The findings reject the joint hypothesis that the sticky-price models typically employed in policy analysis capture the U.S. economy and that commonly used monetary policy shocks represent exogenous shifts.


How to detect patients at risk and diagnose coronary artery disease in a simple and safe way?
CT Coronary Calcium scoring (CAC) has been developed as a way of detecting and quantifying coronary artery atherosclerotic calcification by non-contrast ECG-gated CT. It is superior to any of the traditional risk parameters (Framingham risk score (FRS), IMT and CRP) in predicting cardiovascular events.
A score of 0 has a high prognostic value with very low risk of death (<1% at 10 years).
using the FRS (10-20% cardiovascular risk over 10 years), to help reclassify these patients into higher or lower risk categories. CAC may be helpful in lower risk groups (6-10% 10-year risk) when there is also diabetes (age 40-60 years) or a family history of premature cardiovascular disease. Several studies have shown about half of intermediate risk patients can be reclassified: 39% into a lower risk group and 16% into a higher group.
Fig 1. Suggested management from CAC results in asymptomatic patients.
Patients with high risk based on FRS should be treated with optimal medical management and there is little benefit in CAC apart from those patients who are averse to statins, where CAC may aid further decision regarding management.
CAC > 400 implies high risk of >20% mortality in 10 years – these patients need optimal risk factor management. Functional imaging (such stress echocardiography or Myocardial Perfusion Imaging) is appropriate since the risk of coronary obstruction is higher.
The radiation dose of CAC is low (at or below 1 mSv), lower than annual environmental radiation in WA which is around 1.5-2 mSv. There is currently no Medicare rebate available in Australia for CAC.
A calcium score of 0 does not exclude non-calcified plaque leading to stenosis. Symptomatic patients are best assessed by CT Coronary Angiography (CTCA), functional imaging or invasive angiography.
The strength of CTCA lies in its high negative predictive value of 97-99%, which makes it ideal to rule out significant coronary artery disease in low to intermediate risk patients with stable chest pain and angina symptoms.
Fig 2. 35 year old female with exertional chest pain and no coronary artery calcification. Subtotal occlusion due to non-calcified plaque in the LAD artery, seen on this CTCA.
Luminal stenosis of >50% needs further investigation: either functional imaging (in cases with 50-69% stenosis) or invasive angiography (usually in cases with >70% stenosis).
CTCA allows plaque characterisation of calcified, non-calcified and mixed plaque. CTCA is emerging as a more advanced risk stratification tool in this respect.
There has been rapid development of CT scanner technology, mainly to reduce radiation dose and avoid motion artefact. Now, the heart can be imaged in a single heartbeat with certain modern cardiac CT scanners. These advances allow us to image patients with arrhythmia, tachycardia and dyspnoea, with much higher image quality. Radiation doses are much lower (<1 mSv is achievable with the most advanced technology).
The specialist referred CTCA can attract a rebate for low to intermediate risk patients with stable symptoms who would have been considered otherwise for invasive angiography.
CT coronary calcium scoring in asymptomatic intermediate risk patients allows more accurate risk stratification and aids in further management.
CT coronary angiography is non-invasive, low-dose imaging that excludes coronary artery disease in symptomatic low to intermediate risk patients.


If there are no transactions to be reported in a given period, a nil intrastat return must be filed in Germany.

two things i want to do with this:

*

*i want to remove the @ symbol from where ever it appears

*i need to change the key names into the following:

@Title => text
@ID => id
@ParentID => parent
@Narrative => value
Is there away i could accomplish this? at the moment i wouldn't have a clue on how do it them?
UPDATE:
how json was created. the XMLDocument comes from BLL classes and the following is placed on client the hard coded XML file has a copy of what is returned from BLL so its easy to check it in the client (from my perspective)
@{
 var xdoc = new XmlDocument();
    xdoc.Load(Server.MapPath(Url.Content(@"~/App_Data/XMLFile1.xml")));
    var jsonObj=JsonConvert.SerializeXmlNode(xdoc);
}

A: You can do it by stringifying the JSON and performing string manipulation as shown below:
var mapping = {
      '@Title': 'text',
      '@ID': 'id',
      '@ParentID': 'parent',
      '@Narrative': 'value'
}
var temp = JSON.stringify(data);
for (key in mapping) {
  temp = temp.replace(new RegExp(key, 'g'), mapping[key]);
}
data = JSON.parse(temp.replace(/@/g, ''));

var data = {

President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo on Tuesday (21/4) has made a decision to ban mudik (annual exodus ahead of Eid al-Fitr) this year.
"I want to make a decision. After a regulation prohibiting State Civil Apparatus (ASN), personnel of the Indonesian Defense Forces (TNI) and the National Police (Polri), as well as state-owned enterprises (BUMN) employees from returning to their hometowns was issued last week, at today's meeting I want to announce that we will ban mudik altogether," President Jokowi said in his introductory remarks at a Limited Cabinet Meeting through video conference on Follow up Meeting on the Anticipation of Mudik.
Furthermore, President Jokowi ordered his Cabinet Ministers to prepare necessary measures to enforce the ban.
On that occasion, the President said that based on field research and a survey conducted by Ministry of Transportation, the Government found that 68 percent of people to not participate in the annual exodus, while 24 percent still insist on leaving, and 7 percent had already left for their hometowns.
"It means that there is still a big percentage (of people who will participate in mudik), which is 24 percent," President Jokowi said.
President Jokowi also reminded all relevant ministers regarding the Government's program on social assistance.
"We ha started the distribution of social assistance yesterday; the distribution of staple food packages for Greater Jakarta (Jabodetabek) has been started and the Pre-employment Card program has been launched. Cash Transfer Assistance (BLT) will be also disbursed this week," the President said. (FID / EN)

UNICEF delivers critical supplies to support children and families affected by Beirut explosions
BEIRUT, 25 AUGUST 2020 – UNICEF has been able to deliver 18 shipments of critical humanitarian supplies, totalling 67 tons, through two airlifts and commercial cargo routes to support children and families affected by the Beirut explosions earlier this month. The shipments included vital personal protective equipment (PPE), medical, health hygiene and nutrition supplies.

UNICEF was able to respond immediately following the explosion, distributing pre-positioned supplies that were in stock in the immediate aftermath. At the same time, UNICEF worked to procure additional humanitarian supplies locally, wherever possible, including personal protective equipment (PPE), infection prevention and control (IPC) kits and other hygiene items, as well as supplies to support psycho-social assistance to children affected. To compliment the locally procured supplies, additional supplies were sent from UNICEF's global supply hub in Copenhagen to Beirut, with further shipments planned in the coming days and weeks.
"Before the dust had begun to settle, UNICEF teams were working to ensure that urgently needed humanitarian supplies could reach children and families affected as soon as possible," said UNICEF Lebanon Representative Yukie Mokuo. "Children have had their lives turned upside-down. Making sure that families have their basic needs met will allow them to start rebuilding their lives and look to the future," she added.
As the number of COVID-19 cases in the country continues to surge, UNICEF was also able to deliver more than US$3.5 million worth of critical PPE and IPC kits – especially critical as 10 containers of PPE were destroyed in the explosions.
"As families fight to rebuild after the chaos of the explosions, coupled with the ongoing economic crisis and the added threat of COVID-19, the support of our donors and partners has been absolutely critical, but much more is still needed," said Mokuo. "Now is the time for the international community to stand with the people of Lebanon and ensure that they receive the help and assistance required."
The humanitarian supplies were delivered with the assistance of the European Union's European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (ECHO) and the Government of Belgium and through a donation from the Sanofi Foundation.
UNICEF requires more than US$46.7 million to respond to the immediate needs of children and families over the next three months. The response focuses on keeping children safe; rehabilitating basic essential services; and equipping adolescents and young people with skills they need to be part of the effort to rebuild their country – all while limiting the spread of COVID-19.

£16 million development finance for student accommodation schemes
1 Sep 2017 By octopus property
We provided a 24 month, £16 million senior financing facility to Ankor Property, for the development of two Grade-A London schemes, in Ealing and Greenwich, available to students for the start of the 2017/18 academic year.
In Ealing, the scheme comprises of 124 bed spaces, arranged over four floors, in a combination of self-contained studio and twin bedrooms. Just a short walk from the University of West London and well–served by Ealing's excellent tube and train links, the scheme has been designed to a high specification and will be operated by Homes for Students, one of the UK's most established operators.
The Greenwich scheme comprises 33 self-contained and fully-furnished en-suite studio apartments, completed to a high specification including integrated kitchen, high speed internet and wall-mounted flat screen smart televisions. Situated on Denham Street, the property benefits from its close proximity to Greenwich Docklands Light Railway and North Greenwich Tube, which provide fast access to several central London University campuses.
Nori Touati, Manging Director at Ankor Property, said:
"Greenwich and Ealing represent our first two completed student accommodation developments, and we are excited to be delivering them in time for the start of the 2017/18 academic year, with the support of the Octopus team throughout the process invaluable in helping us achieve this.
We have a number of other projects in the pipeline at various stages of the development process as we focus on becoming one of UK's most forward thinking and highly trusted property developer."
According to recent data(1), London has 376,000 students, of which 278,000 are full time. This equates to 4.19 students per purpose built bedspace with 82,000 students in the target market without access to PBSA.

Stone Cycling - Waste Based Bricks
A Dutch company has developed a brick composed of industrial, construction and demolition waste materials. StoneCycling was founded in 2013 by Tom van Soest after learning that construction and demolition debris accounts for 65% of his country's generated waste. Though much of this debris is recycled as base aggregate for roadways and other applications, van Soest wanted to find a way to increase the potential of demolition waste by turning it into a new building material.
After much experimentation with various combinations of concrete aggregate and other ground and crushed demolition waste materials - ceramic tiles, glass, insulation, etc. - van Soest came up with sturdy, stable WasteBasedBricks in a wide variety of textures and colors. StoneCycling is working to make a circular economy a reality through upcycling, the process of transforming waste materials into new materials of better quality, in contrast to the typical downcycling of demolition waste.
Waste Based Bricks are increasingly being used in the private homes and businesses of clients with a keen interest in environmental sustainability. StoneCycling has announced plans to up-cycle a million kg of waste in 2018 for the exterior of buildings. Though the product has not crossed the Atlantic as of yet, there growing interest here in the United States, where hundreds of millions of tons of construction and demolition waste is generated each year.

Substation & Mechanical Selective Demolition: Out With the Old, In With the New
A new pharmaceutical company took over an existing North Jersey facility with plans for major renovation. Design work began immediately, and long-lead equipment was ordered early on. To meet the aggressive schedule, a parallel selective demolition plan was developed by R. Baker & Son in anticipation of the arrival of the new equipment.
Plans called for a new, larger electrical service requiring removal of an existing substation and installation of a new one. Two existing 600 HP boilers were slated for removal to make way for eight smaller high-efficiency boilers. Four 75-ton chillers, only five years old, were to remain, but aged 100% outside air handlers and associated piping were to be replaced by new recirculating units and required demolition. Because the facility was to be operational for the duration of the project, however, it was necessary for utilities and HVAC systems remain in place until new equipment arrived, at which point R. Baker & Son's portion of the project would need to move forward swiftly. This required a close team effort between the Baker team, electrical and mechanical contractors, and the owner.
The first, and most critical, swap-out was the removal of a 1500 kVA single-ended substation and installation of a 2500 kVA double-ended substation on a newly-enlarged concrete pad. After weeks of planning and preparation, the electrical shutdown began on a Friday night. Following all lockout-tagout procedures, the equipment removal proceeded through the weekend. The new substation was rigged in place on Monday morning, and reconnection began immediately, with a one-week timeframe to get the power back on.
Over the next several consecutive Fridays, R. Baker & Son removed the two existing boilers so the eight smaller boilers could be rigged, set, installed in place, and readied for piping. Finally, the air handlers were removed in a set sequence to keep the cooling system running while the new units were installed. The Baker team performed asset recovery of the boilers and substations for resale allowed the owner to recoup their value and reduce the overall cost of the project.

Craig Packer is the best lion man in the world, from all that I've read and seen, and I've seen a lot on trips into the mud-hut regions of Tanzania tracking man-eaters and tracing the bleeding edge of animal-human conflict in the Selous.
Packer has spent nearly 40 years studying the big cats, and he's embraced everything from working with big game hunters to flash-bang grenades to try to stop the inevitable onslaught of civilization.
It's still not working. And when Packer — the least alarmist conservationist I know — blows a whistle, it's worth noting.

Jack Wilshere reveals Arsene Wenger promise, wants Arsenal stay
Wilshere wants to stay at Arsenal beyond next summer when his contract expires.
By Pradhan Muthanna
November 9, 2017 07:04 GMT
Jack Wilshere has reiterated his desire to stay at Arsenal despite entering the final eight months of his contract with no sight of an extension being offered just yet.
The midfielder has struggled with injuries in the last few seasons, which have hampered his chances of playing consistently for the Gunners. He spent last season on loan with Bournemouth to gain regular playing time, and had a successful three-quarter of a season before he suffered a fracture which ended his campaign pre-maturely.

Wilshere has been injury-free since the start of the current campaign and has slowly moved himself back into contention for a regular role in the first-team. The midfielder has been utilised regularly in the Europa League and Carabao Cup games, but has featured for just 25 minutes in the Premier League.
The 25-year-old is confident that he will be given a regular playing time by Arsene Wenger this season, and is keen to take his chances and prove that he deserves a new deal. The French coach revealed that the club will decide whether to hand him a new deal in December, but reports have suggested that they are planning to offer him a four-year contract.
"I've got a great relationship with the boss, I've heard him speak in press conferences he's ensured me I will get some playing time," Wilshere said, as quoted by the Sun.
"I want to stay at this club, I've said that many times. I left last year to get some football, I've done that and I'm back now and I'm fit and ready to play.
"The future will take care of itself. All I have got to do is stay fit and play my football," the Englishman explained.
Jack Wilshere insists that he wants to stay at Arsenal beyond next summer when his current contract expires Getty
Wilshere, meanwhile, is keen to get back to play for England, something he has not done since their disappointing loss at the hands of Iceland in the European Championships last summer. There were talks about him being recalled for the Three Lions' upcoming friendlies against Germany and Brazil, but he was omitted from the squad.
Gareth Southgate wants the midfielder to become a regular fixture in Arsenal's Premier League team in order to warrant a call up to the national team, and Wilshere is ready to take up the challenge and fight for his place, which is currently being occupied by Mesut Ozil.
"I'm a proud Englishman and I want to be playing whenever I can. Unfortunately it's down to the manager who didn't select me and said I need more football and that's what I've got to do," Wilshere added.

Le Meridien's executive sous chef Mohd Budiman Bistari never misses a chance to prepare his Braised Bahmia Lamb Shank for his family each year.
"This is a two-part dish, as you have to prepare the lamb shanks and marinate them first while the gravy is prepared separately," said Mohd Budiman.
He also cooked a chickpea and eggplant puree, as a healthier starch alternative, with an optional side of organic vegetables.
"You can use fillets for the meat portion, but it is better to get the shanks, because the bone marrow and collagen really add flavour to the stock," said Mohd Budiman.
"My family doesn't mind the variations to the dish as long as the main taste from the tomatoes is there, plus they also enjoy the occasional surprise such as the sweet fruits in the Bahmia gravy," he added.
Lamb Shank: Saute all the vegetables until aroma rises, then add spices.
Season to taste, then blend the ingredients into a paste.
Marinate the lamb shanks in the paste for five hours, and place in refrigerator.
Throw in all the spices and keep stirring until spices are cooked, then add the chilli, coriander, local celery and tomatoes and keep stirring until a paste is formed.
Add stock, curry leaf and milk and bring to a boil.
Season to taste and reduce the flame.
Add the lamb shanks, cover the pot and braise in an oven at 150°C for two hours OR if using a gas stove, let it sit on low flame for between two hours and 30 minutes and three hours, stirring occasionally.

Jamie Sasson is a Venezuelan actress and model who has worked in theater and TV since the age of eight and is currently living in Miami.

Among her latest works are the role of Paula Uriarte in Corazón Valiente, a Telemundo Studios production, and Erinnia in Erinnia, a series of interactive videos produced as an advertising and branding project for Fiat.

Career

At the age of eight Sasson started to study acting in Caracas, Venezuela, in a workshop for children at the Ateneo de Caracas, where she performed her first theater play at the Sala Ana Julia Rojas. Soon after she obtained a scholarship at the voice and dancing school Las Voces Blancas de Elisa Soteldo.
Due to the lack of permanent acting schools for children, her mother created an acting and dancing school and theater company for children, first located at the Rafael Guinand Theater and then at the Teatro Chacaíto, where Sasson spent years not only studying, but also working at the academy's plays and was invited to participate in theatrical productions with other theater companies for children.
Sasson moved to Europe with her family, where she continued with her secondary school studies and focused on her dancing training with Mario Kitt in Zürich, Switzerland; then in one of her trips to Caracas she became part of the theater company Contrajuego's second workshop for actors, and she had the experience of acting in a classical play, of which she became a recurrent actress when subsequent visits to Caracas took place. Her next step is to work in Madrid as a model and continue acting in shows like El Comisario, Telecinco.
Sasson went back to Venezuela, where she was the face of different advertising campaigns and started working in theater plays such as La Última Pasión del Cine and Cortocircuito and became part of Televen's soap opera El Gato Tuerto.
After that experience she went to Colombia and became "Erinnia" in the Internet project "Erinnia". Subsequently she moved to Miami and participated in the soap opera Corazón Valiente of Telemundo network.

I was a guest on BBC radio's World Business News (MP3 link here) for what turned out to be a rather mild debate with CAP Action's Tom Perriello. The segment is about 10 minutes long.
Our host asked, "Is this any way to run an economy?" I laughed that the alternative is a philosopher-king. A better answer would have been what we say in the book: No. There are a variety of rule sets to organize a democracy, and the ones predominant in advanced countries are indeed dysfunctional. We can do better, short of dictatorship. I wish I hadn't been so glib on air, but I find myself defending the basic notion of democracy too often, so it was a reflex. What the U.S. really needs to do is constrain legislators' capacity to make long-term spending commitments beyond the political consequence horizon.
Why do the normal political motivations and institutional mechanisms of our constitutional system not enable a solution to this obvious fiscal imbalance? To grasp the answer, we must begin by recognizing that our politicians are acting rationally. And to illustrate the point, we can look at a famous example from game theory: the prisoners' dilemma.
Originating in the work of RAND Corporation scholars in the 1950s, the prisoners' dilemma gets its name from a thought experiment involving two suspects arrested and questioned by the police regarding a crime they are accused of having committed together. Lacking much evidence, the police separate the suspects and present both of them with the same offer: If neither suspect confesses, both serve one month in jail. If both suspects confess, they both serve three months in jail. But if one suspect confesses and agrees to testify against his partner while the other does not, the betraying suspect will go free while the betrayed suspect receives the full one-year sentence. What should the prisoners do?
At first, it seems irrational for either to confess. After all, if both hold firm, both will serve short sentences. But when one considers all the potential outcomes of their situation, and assumes that each prisoner's prime concern is reducing his own punishment, it turns out that each prisoner is actually better off confessing and betraying the other — regardless of what the other prisoner chooses to do.
American politics today is presented with a similar dilemma. There are two paths toward reducing deficits and debts of the magnitude we face: raising taxes or cutting spending. A balanced compromise would involve some amount of both, but the two political parties face strong electoral incentives to do neither. If Republicans push for reduced spending, they are criticized for taking away the benefits people rely on. If Democrats push for raising taxes, they are decried for swiping workers' hard-earned dollars. Both solutions are seen as taking money away from voters, and are thus fraught with political peril.
Consider the matrix above, in which both Republicans and Democrats in Congress have two policy choices. Republicans always promise lower taxes, so their choice is whether to cut or maintain spending levels. Democrats, in contrast, want to keep spending high, so their choice is whether to raise taxes or keep them low.
A close look at the matrix shows that it is politically rational for the Republicans to maintain today's unsustainable levels of spending when faced with either behavior from Democrats. And, campaign rhetoric aside, that is what they tend to do. Republicans have learned that whenever they actually legislate spending cuts, they are attacked by their opponents and tend to lose elections. They are not keen to do the fiscally responsible thing when the price is giving up power.
Likewise, whether Republicans cut or maintain spending, Democrats are politically better off if they allow taxes to stay low. This explains why, despite President Obama's rhetoric about raising taxes, he and other Democrats have generally refrained from actually doing so, especially at the levels needed to pay for their spending. That the expiration of the Bush tax cuts was postponed until after the 2012 election was not a coincidence.
To be sure, politicians in both parties make noises about good economic choices (from their perspectives) that balance the budget, but their actual behavior is what matters. President George W. Bush oversaw the expansion of spending on entitlements, as well as on defense, education, and other discretionary programs. President Obama serially preserved Bush's tax cuts. Politicians know what is best for the country in the long term, but they have no easy way to change their behavior now during a period of polarization in which the institutions and incentives are set up for imbalance.
This amounts to an institutional failure. For most of the nation's history, the rules of the budget game worked. Today, however, they no longer function. Politically rational behavior is now fiscally perverse. Addressing this institutional failure thus requires changing the rules of game. The only remedy to our political prisoners' dilemma, therefore, is to change those rules so that they in fact rule out structural fiscal imbalance — by imposing painful penalties on lawmakers for failing to budget responsibly.

Former Premier League ace "surprised" by Antonio Conte decision as he fires warning to new Tottenham boss
Manchester United FC Tottenham FC
November 4th 2021, 16:51
Former Manchester United midfielder Luke Chadwick admits he is surprised that Antonio Conte took the manager's job at Tottenham, especially after a move in the summer fell through.
The Italian tactician has a superb record in his managerial career, having won titles with Inter Milan, Chelsea and Juventus, and one imagines he could easily have waited a bit longer to land an even bigger job than the one at Spurs.
Chadwick has warned Conte that it could be a particularly challenging job for him now that he's taking over a Tottenham team low on confidence without the benefit of having pre-season with these players.
The ex-Red Devil is also concerned that Conte has to deal with a squad that's gone a bit stale after the Mauricio Pochettino era, with even big names like Harry Kane and Son Heung-min not looking quite as good as they were.
"Only time will tell with Conte," Chadwick told CaughtOffside. "The previous manager was set up to fail, really. He was a bit of a last resort, he was stuck with the Harry Kane situation, which has ended up being a bit of a nightmare for both parties, not just Kane but for Tottenham as well.
Antonio Conte is back in the Premier League with Tottenham
"Everyone knew the way he had his team playing at Wolves, the setup wasn't really exciting, but it got results. Spurs needed to do something, and Conte's had a great track record, he's a really good manager.
"It'll be interesting to see how he puts his stamp on this team that's so out of confidence, and that looks a bit stale in terms of it being made up of leftovers from what wonderful Pochettino team. It's an ageing team that's not really evolved or developed in any way recently.
"I'm surprised, he obviously had the opportunity to go there in the summer and turned it down. We know he's a manager who likes to put his own stamp on things and he could've done with a pre-season to get the team playing his style, so it's surprising to see he's gone there now with the team really struggling and low on confidence.
"There's still fantastic players at Tottenham, it's just whether he can get the spark back in them. You look at Harry Kane, Son, Lucas Moura, Dele Alli…if you can get these players firing then it's a top four team, but it just seems that since Pochettino left the spark's been lost to a certain extent.
What Tottenham fans can expect from the brilliant but difficult Antonio Conte
"They had some exciting times when Mourinho started out, with Kane and Son looking a great partnership, but those two in particular just don't look like the players they once were."
There was recently talk of Conte possibly becoming Man Utd manager, but Chadwick spoke to CaughtOffside about the names available and sounded unconvinced that they'd be the right choices to replace the struggling Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
"Conte and Zidane, they're two brilliant football people, two big names as players and coaches, but how do they fit into the Manchester United mould?" Chadwick said.
He added: "I can't imagine Zidane or someone like that coming into Manchester United. Chelsea are obviously very different in the way they keep changing their managers every few years. United, going back to Sir Alex and the managers before him, they always had long-term projects, and I just don't see that happening with a Zidane or a Conte."

Lewis Richards says:
If you look at the brand new dynamic facilities of the London club and their lack of success in recent times, it is a blank canvas.
What a challenge for a Manager who has won just about everything he has been involved in !!
He has probably been promised an opportunity to build something for himself, as opposed to taking over someone else's work in progress.

The typical cell's environment is highly varied in the stiffness or flexibility of the surrounding tissue, and that to gain a meaningful amount of information about its surroundings, the cell must move around and change shape. This is the finding of a new study led by Princeton University researchers.
The result aids the understanding of how cells respond to mechanical cues and may help explain what happens when migrating tumor cells colonize a new organ or when immune cells participate in wound healing.
said Ned Wingreen, Princeton's Howard A. Prior Professor in the Life Sciences and professor of molecular biology and the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics.
The organs and tissues of the body are enmeshed in a fiber-rich structure known as the extracellular matrix, which provides a scaffold for the cells to live, move and differentiate to carry out specific functions. Cells interact with this matrix by extending sticky proteins out from the cell surface to pull on nearby fibers.
Previous work, mostly employing artificial flat surfaces, has shown that cells can use this tactile feedback to determine the elasticity or stiffness in a process called mechanosensing. But because the fibers of the natural matrix are all interconnected in a jumbled, three-dimensional network, it was not clear how much useful information the cell could glean from feeling its immediate surroundings.
To find out, the researchers built a computer simulation that mimicked a typical cell in a matrix made of collagen protein, which is found in skin, bones, muscles and connective tissue. The team also modeled a cell in a network of fibrin, the strong, stringy protein that makes up blood clots.
To accurately capture the composition of these networks, the researchers worked with Chase Broedersz, a former Princeton Lewis-Sigler Fellow who is now professor of physics at Ludwig-Maximilians-University of Munich, and his colleagues Louise Jawerth and Stefan Münster to first create physical models of the matrices, using approaches originally developed in the group of collaborator David Weitz, a systems biologist at Harvard University.
Princeton graduate student Farzan Beroz then used those models to recreate virtual versions of the collagen and fibrin networks in computer models.
With these virtual networks, Beroz, Broedersz and Wingreen could then ask the question: can cells glean useful information about the elasticity or stiffness of their environment by feeling their surroundings?
If the answer is yes, then the finding would shed light on how cells can change in response to those surroundings. For example, the work might help explain how cancer cells are able to detect that they've arrived at an organ that has the right type of scaffold to support tumor growth, or how cells that arrive at a wound know to start secreting proteins to promote healing.
Using mathematics, the researchers calculated how the networks would deform when nearby fibers are pulled on by cells.
They found that both the collagen and fibrin networks contained configurations of fibers with remarkably broad ranges of collective stiffness, from rather bendable to very rigid, and that these regions could be immediately next to each other. As a result, the cell could have two nearby probes whereby one detects hardness and the other detects softness, making it difficult for a cell to learn by mechanosensing what type of tissue it inhabits.
"We were surprised to find that the cell's environment can vary quite a lot even across a small distance," Wingreen said.
The researchers concluded that to obtain an accurate assessment of its environment, a cell must move around and also change shape, for example elongating to cover a different area of the matrix.
This research was supported by the National Science Foundation, the Harvard Materials Research and Engineering Center, the German Excellence Initiative, the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) and the hospitality of the Aspen Center for Physics.

It's important to know that the OHIF Viewer project provides two different build
processes:

```bash
# Static Asset output: For deploying PWAs
yarn run build

# Single `.js` script, for embedding viewer into existing apps
yarn run build:package
```

## Progressive Web Application (PWA)

> [Progressive Web Apps][pwa] are a new breed of web applications that meet the
> [following requirements][pwa-checklist]. Notably, targeting a PWA allows us
> provide a reliable, fast, and engaging experience across different devices and
> network conditions.

The OHIF Viewer is maintained as a [monorepo][monorepo]. We use WebPack to build
the many small static assets that comprise our application. Also generated is an
`index.html` that will serve as an entry point for loading configuration and the
application, as well as a `service-worker` that can intelligently cache files so
that subsequent requests are from the local file system instead of over the
network.

You can read more about this particular strategy in our
[Build for Production Deployment Guide](./../deployment/recipes/build-for-production.md)

## Commonjs Bundle (Packaged Script)

The [@ohif/viewer][viewer-npm] package is built with WebPack to provide a React
component that can be dropped into a larger application. The `OHIFViewer`
component is the entire viewer, configurable via React `props`. This is useful
for including the OHIF Viewer in a larger web application, as the entire
application can be provided via a `<script>` tag with no build process required.

The bundle is not as performant or as optimized as the PWA build. It includes
fonts, styles, and the core extensions. If you find yourself facing performance
issues, you may wish to tweak what's included in this bundle or switch to the
PWA build.

You can read more about this particular strategy in our
[Embedded Viewer Deployment Guide](./../deployment/recipes/embedded-viewer.md)

The previous Sharp GP2Y1010 dust sensor was already a successful optoelectronic product due to its small factor, simplicity and low cost. The 1051 update comes with some important improvements to make this an even better product, while using the exact same enclosure shape and size.
This new model makes using the sensor much easier. To access the readings only 3 wires are needed, two for power and one for UART serial communication (GND, VCC and TX). The previous electrolytic capacitor needed for the pulsing IR led is now built in. There is also a microcontroller to handle the detection algorithm and the serial interface.
To check the output I connected the sensor to my computer, with an USB to UART adapter based on a CH340 chip. The sensor's baudrate is 2400bps.
We use the first two bytes to compute the voltage level returned by the photocell. Notice that the 5.00 constant should match your Vcc level. The dust quantity expressed in micrograms per cubic meter of air, is obtained multiplying the vo with 700. Byte number 5 is a checksum, merely the sum of the first 4 bytes, and byte 6 is always 0xFF. Use this to make sure the data received from the sensor is correct.
The high figures (2375.49 ug/m^3) were produced by inserting an opaque object via the air channel. The low values were recorded in normal conditions.
Hi these are some of the data bytes I received. FF AA 00 00 00 4A 4A FF AA 00 00 00 4A 4A FF AA 00 00 00 4A 4A However you mentioned that the sharp is sending 6 bytes of data in sequence, but it seems like there are 7 bytes including the 0xFF byte. Also I did not get how you carried out the calculations for the checksum as looking at your data the addition of bytes 4,3,2,1 doesn't equal byte 5 .
That can be a great idea for us to put on market sensors for dust.
Take a look at: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9689 .
@deepika, thanks, I corrected the code.
Is there any chance to power up with 3.3 V as you did in the previous Sharp sensor ?
You still have to multiply by 1000 to get to ug/m^3. So 107.14ug/m^3.
Again 0.875 volts / 3.5 = 0.25 mg/m^3. See graph.
Anyone, what do you think?
interesting. I'll need to double check your numbers.

The Our Water, Our Right Movement led by the Environmental Rights Action/Friends of the Earth Nigeria (ERA/FoEN) has cautioned Lagos Governor-Elect, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, from continuing the path of previous administrations in the state that set-in motion plans to privatise water in Lagos.
They however frowned at the fact that, in tackling the water challenge, previous administrations including the outgoing Governor Akinwunmi Ambode have not consulted Lagos citizens and, instead, advanced false solutions including the globally-discredited Public Private Partnership (PPP) model of water privatisation.
They added that reports that the outgoing administration of Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode has begun concession talks with Veolia, Metito and Abengoa which are transnational corporations with track-record of corruption and human rights abuses are even more worrisome, adding that they had protested this move to the current State House of Assembly and compiled findings on the multinationals in a document – "Veolia, Metito, Abengoa Cannot be trusted with Lagos Water", which has been made available to the state government for it to backtrack.
In its recommendations to Sanwo-Olu who assumes office from May 2019, the groups demanded a halt to concession talks or agreements entered into with transnational corporations like Veolia, Metito, and Abengoa; the need to fully uphold the human right to water as an obligation of the government representing the people; integration of broad public participation including that of women in developing plans to achieve universal access to clean water; and a review the recent Lagos Environment Law and removal of all the remaining provisions that open the doors for PPP and other privatization forms.
Others are: rejection of all contracts designed by or involving the IFC, which operates to maximise private profit; building the political will to prioritise water for the people by investing in the water infrastructure necessary to provide universal water access, which will create jobs, improve public health, and invigorate the Lagos economy; increasing budgetary allocation to the water sector; and institution of a Water Trust Fund that will expand public financing of the water sector.
The groups said they have a blueprint on how to address the current crisis in the water sector in the document – "Lagos Water Crisis: Alternative Roadmap for Water Sector". Co-signatories to the letter include the Amalgamated Union of Public Corporations Civil Service Technical and Recreational Services Employees (AUPCTRE), Joint Action Front (JAF), Peace and Development Project (PEDEP), Child Health Organisation, and the Africa Women Water Sanitation and Hygiene Network (AWWASHNet), among others.

BLOG: Chris Dungworth - "Manufacturing and Engineering is alive, well and thriving in Doncaster"
A blog from Business Doncaster's Head of Service, Chris Dungworth, discussing Doncaster's manufacturing excellence.
Monty Rakusen
Doncaster is a manufacturing town! There I have said it.
For too long it has been said Doncaster has lost its manufacturing / engineering identity. People say look at the IPort, look at Armthorpe - we are now a town full of logistics sheds with low level employment, we have lost ICI, International Harvesters, Ford, Crompton Lighting and others.
All of this is true but people don't tend to see the bigger picture. Manufacturing and engineering is still alive, well and thriving in Doncaster. Companies in Doncaster still manufacture world-class goods that are sold and used on world renowned structures and products globally.
We still have Ardagh Glass at Kirk Sandall producing millions of glass bottles which is powering the drinks industry. Polypipe is still a world leader in plastic drainage and building products. Peglar, established for years in Doncaster, is still a leading supplier of advanced plumbing, heating and engineering products globally. Bridon Bearkart are still investing and selling their ropes and wire across the globe to structure the oil and gas industry and build stadiums and bridges. All of these well-established companies are experts in their field and employ many Doncaster residents.
The rail industry, long seen as the backbone of Doncaster's engineering base, continues to flourish. Recognised companies such as Wabtec Rail, Unipart Rail and Volker Rail still have a large presence in the town. Other companies are winning contracts and expanding. There is also the new Siemens rail manufacturing facility being built in nearby Goole which will bring forward new opportunities for businesses in the supply chain to locate in Doncaster and the plant will employ a number of Doncaster residents.
Some of our smaller SME businesses are now growing and establishing reputations for quality products and services and supplying new and growing industrial sectors. Companies such as Agemaspark at Kirk Sandall, specialists in precision engineering, are utilising new technology across a range of industries. Firma Engineering in Balby are supplying design and product development structures to companies working in emerging technologies. Hallam Castings in Thorne compete in global markets supplying a range of die cast products to a number of world-renowned organisations.
New industries and emerging technology companies are establishing themselves in the town. Companies such as Clean Power Hydrogen in Wheatley are developing and manufacturing green hydrogen technology products to be used across the world and Energise Energy Solutions, based at Finningley, is a leading specialist in electric vehicle charging points and are expanding rapidly.
There are many more example of companies situated on business parks across the whole of the town that go under the radar.
Business Doncaster continues to give the manufacturing and engineering sector the priority it deserves. We are now competing with our illustrious neighbours in Sheffield and Rotherham for new investment and successes are starting to happen. Hitachi Rail have fully embedded and established their rail engineering business here and in recent months, we have seen Fitrite Engineering, PJD Engineering and Dual Inventive locate their engineering businesses to Doncaster.
In the near future, with our assistance, we will see a new inward investment of national significance announced which will bring hundreds of new manufacturing jobs to Doncaster.
Why is it happening now?
We have a compelling offer. There is site availability, incentives and the quality of customer service offered to new and indigenous investors is making a real difference.
We have sites available that are ideal for manufacturing, engineering companies who are looking to expand and need a facility near to road, rail and air networks. With 87% of the UK population reachable in four hour's drive time, that's millions of customers, suppliers, and connections right on your doorstep!
Gateway East at Doncaster Sheffield Airport is geared up for aerospace, advanced manufacturing and associated technologies. Links which are already underway with the world renowned Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre in Rotherham are starting to bear fruit in terms of the research support offered for companies locating on the site.
The Unity Project adjacent to Junction 5 of the M18 on the site of the old Hatfield Colliery is one of the largest mixed use development schemes currently under construction in the UK. Approximately 160 acres of land is dedicated to industrial use with a number of manufacturers in discussion already with us due to the potential attractiveness of the site.
The IPort, close to junction 3 of the M18, although predominantly a logistics site still has 2.5 million sq ft available suitable for manufacturers looking to use multi modal forms of transport who can take advantage of the on-site UK and Europe wide connected rail port.
Further land is available in Carcroft and Thorne and the Doncaster local plan, shortly to be adopted, will include over 1000 acres of employment land.
Having land is fine but to attract new investment we need to see commercial buildings going up to satisfy this future demand. Business Doncaster works closely with commercial developers and close partnerships with the likes of Verdion, St Modwen, Trebor Developments and Waystone have proved beneficial with buildings going up quickly and attracting tenants. We, however, are looking to see more of it and are encouraging developers looking to invest to come forward and talk to us about the excellent offer in Doncaster.
We also need the engineers of the future to take up positions with companies bringing their business to Doncaster. We have a skilled workforce but new educational facilities such as the industry supported University Technical College with an engineering specialism and the National College for Advanced Transport and Infrastructure (NCATI) already established here means that the future is bright for future generations of Doncaster people looking to work in manufacturing industries.
To sum up, we are excited!
We are excited about our future and about new manufacturing, engineering and green jobs coming to Doncaster. We have a platform for growth second to none and a team ready to help and make a positive difference.
If you are interested about hearing what Doncaster has to offer contact our Business Doncaster team on 01302 735555. We are ready to assist.

In the last year, the proportion of fire claims caused by electrical faults has risen by 35 per cent, now accounting for over a quarter (27 per cent) of overall fire claims, according to figures from the Co-op Insurance.
And Jonathan Guy, head of claims at the insurer, says there is a correlation between the increase and the prevalence of counterfeit phone chargers.
Claims analysts at the Co-op insurance believe that in addition to some of the more traditional causes for electrical faults, such as tumble dryers and washing machines, other common culprits include electric blankets and smaller appliances which require chargers such as e-cigarettes, mobile phones, iPads and laptops.
As technology invades our homes and we become more connected, the amount of technology people possess has vastly increased over recent years. 1.8 million mobile phone chargers are bought online in the UK each year and an estimated 2.1million people now using e-cigarettes in Great Britain.
Consumers need to be careful that they purchase official chargers, as counterfeit ones are often made with poor quality components that fail to meet UK safety regulations, according to charity Electrical Safety First.
80 in every 100,000 households will suffer from a fire in any given year according to Co-op data, with the most common cause of fire being accidental ignition, followed by electrical faults.
Purchase electrical items from a reputable source and check it has a British or European safety mark when buying it.


Before I share today's recipe, I wanted to kick off the week with my favorite picture from our weekend- this pair of furry buddies make me smile.
Somehow, it ended up being the only image that proves we had visitors for the weekend. I'm so grateful that my in law's came to Charlotte; we had a great time!
Also, have you all been gulping coconut water? If not, I wanted to recommend Zico from TJ's. It's a great on-the-go version that is my apres hot yoga drink of choice. It's natures answer to Gatorade and so delicious. If you're interested in more info, this article answered a lot of my questions re Zico.
So on to one of my new favorite recipes-Teriyaki Salmon on the grill.
And since no weekend is complete without dessert, this is what finished off the meal.
Hope you had a wonderful weekend also!

Q: Constructible subset of constructible set Let $X$ be a topological space. Let $F \subset E \subset X$ be subsets. Assume that $E$ is constructible in $X$ and that $F$ is constructible in $E$. Is it true that $F$ is constructible in $X$?
We use the definition of constructible as defined in EGA I (first edition).
This is true if $X$ has a basis for the topology consisting of quasi-compact opens, see Lemma Tag 09YJ. In particular, it holds if $X$ is a scheme. Thus our question is a bit frivolous as the important use case is covered.
Still: Is there a counter example for general $X$? Is it true if $X$ is quasi-compact?

A: If $F$ is open in $E$ (where $E$ carries the subspace topology from $X$), then $F = E \cap U$ where $U$ is open in $X$, hence $F$ is constructible in $X$ (since constructibles are closed under intersection). Similarly, if $F$ is closed in $E$, then $F$ is constructible in $X$.
The constructibles in $E$ constitute the smallest Boolean algebra that contains the open and closed sets in $E$. The constructibles in $X$ are a Boolean algebra which, we have just seen, include the open and closed sets in $E$. Hence constructibles in $E$ are included in the the constructibles of $X$, as anticipated.


Arts for the Community at Thomas University (ACTU) will present an afternoon of Chamber Music at 4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 14, as part of its Sundays at Four series. The concert will be held at Trinity Anglican Church, 325 W. Jackson St. in Thomasville.
Performers will be Rebecca Fadell, soprano; Karl Barton, flute; Joy Tedford, violin; Boyan Bonev, cello; and Mimi Noda, piano.
The program will include the trio sonata BWV1079 by J. S. Bach from "The Musical Offering" for flute, violin, cello and harpsichord. The primary musical theme was said to be written by King Frederick the Great. Bach fashioned a collection of works that centered on "The Royal Theme," including this sonata.
Also on the program will be two soprano arias from cantatas by J.S. Bach. The first aria will feature soprano Rebecca Fadell singing "I follow you likewise with joyful steps" in German from the first part of the St. John Passion BWV245. The text focuses on the passage from John 18:15 that after his arrest, Jesus was followed by Simon Peter and another disciple, and extolls the act of following from the perspective of the Christian believer.
The second aria is from a secular, cantata BWV209, written in Italian and titled "He knows not what sorrow is," it's about a young scholar who is leaving his home town for study. The selected aria titled "Depart then and with sorrow" about those whom the scholar leaves behind, will also feature Fadell with flute, cello and harpsichord.
The program will conclude with Beethoven's Piano Trio in D major, Op.70 No.1 for violin, cello and piano, which is known as the "Ghost" trio because of the eerie sounding slow movement. This is one of Beethoven's most celebrated trio sonatas, and touches on a typical theme of the Halloween season. It will serve as a fitting conclusion for the program of Chamber Music.
