North Carolina Beats Houston, Advances To Super Regionals
By Chris Hilburn-Trenkle
CHAPEL HILL, N.C.—North Carolina, the No. 6 national seed in this year's NCAA Tournament, did something Sunday night that it could not do as the No. 2 national seed last year—advance to a super regional.
The Tar Heels did so by posting a 3-0 record this weekend as the host team in the Chapel Hill Regional, a run that culminated in a back-and-forth, 19-11 victory over Houston.
North Carolina beat the Cougars in a close, 4-3 game on Saturday night and after Houston defeated Purdue, 8-4, on Sunday afternoon, the rematch was set.
And the rematch made history. The 19 runs scored by UNC were the most runs in program history in an NCAA Tournament game and the 30 combined runs were the most runs scored in an NCAA Tournament game involving the Tar Heels. As if that was not enough, the game also experienced a 53-minute rain delay in the eighth inning with the bases loaded.
"We got that early lead, but it didn't last very long because they can swing it over there," said North Carolina third baseman Kyle Datres. "We knew they could, so we were going to have to play nine innings tonight and they kept coming back at us. But tonight the offense picked it up for us."
With the victory, North Carolina advances to its first super regional since 2013. The achievement should serve as a bandage for the players who are still feeling the sting of last year's regional defeat.
Michael Busch, who was one of the players that felt the pain of elimination at the hands of No. 4 seed Davidson in 2017, had a phenomenal regional to carry his team to a place no current Tar Heel has been before.
The 6-foot, 207-pound sophomore first baseman posted a five-RBI day on Friday and again provided a big performance on Sunday night. On the weekend, Busch had seven hits, a home run and nine RBIs. For his efforts, Busch was named Most Outstanding Player of the Chapel Hill Regional.
"He's been swinging it well for us almost from start to finish now," North Carolina head coach Mike Fox said. "He went through a little bit of a dip, but he just has that knack of coming up with some big base hits and moving the ball and he's had a sensational year."
In the third inning, Busch smacked a single to right-center field that scored pinch hitter Josh Ladowski, cuing a rally that saw the Tar Heels score five times to take a 6-3 advantage. It was the first of four RBIs on the day for Busch.
Datres was another big performer for the Tar Heels, hitting a leadoff home run over the right-field wall on the second pitch he saw in the bottom of the first inning. As he rounded third base, the excitement on his face was evident — as if he knew what was to follow.
On the night, Datres had two hits, scored four times, knocked in two runs and stole his 12th base of the season. In three games this weekend, the junior scored six times and contributed five hits.
On the mound, North Carolina righthander Austin Bergner struggled in the second and third innings, allowing three runs as the Tar Heels fell behind, 3-1, in part because of a solo home run from Houston's Jared Triolo.
But Bergner, ranked No. 130 on the BA 500, showed strong composure after the third and did not allow another run in his next two innings before giving up a two-run home run in the sixth.
Bergner, a 6-foot-4, 200-pound, draft-eligible sophomore, used a fastball that routinely sat in the mid-90s, along with a changeup in the mid-80s and a curveball to keep the Houston hitters off balance.
On the day, he pitched 5.2 innings, allowing five runs (three earned) on eight hits while walking two and striking out three.
2020 MLB Draft Stock Watch: To-Do Lists For 30 Potential First Round Picks
Here's what each of the 30 prospects in the 2020 MLB Draft class must do to improve their draft stock this spring.
The Cougars added two more runs in the seventh inning, but a three-run seventh from the Tar Heels pushed the lead back to seven. Zack Gahagan brought the big bat, hitting a two-run home run to left field for the second consecutive night.
In the eighth inning, Houston designated hitter Joe Davis continued his outstanding weekend with a moon-shot grand slam off North Carolina reliever Josh Hiatt, who had just replaced freshman righty Joey Lancellotti. It was Davis' third home run of the weekend and second home run of the game, and his nine RBIs led all players in the Chapel Hill Regional.
Hiatt, ranked No. 481 on the BA 500, bounced back to record the last two outs of the eighth inning before fellow Tar Heels reliever Rodney Hutchison, ranked No. 462 on the BA 500, closed out the game with three outs in the ninth.
With the win, the Tar Heels will now host No. 11 overall seed Stetson in next weekend's super regionals.
"This team is amazing," Gahagan said. "We just keep battling and sticking together and the bond we have is pretty good and hopefully we can keep it going."

Presidential debates (and by extension, vice-presidential debates) have been a common litmus test for presidential candidates running for the oval office. But as many of us know, public speaking doesn't always go smoothly. Embarrassing debate gaffes are peppered throughout campaign history, so we're bringing you a list of all the biggest debate fails out there.
It's been argued that major presidential candidate fails can sink an entire campaign, particularly since they traditionally happen not long before the polls open. When a major candidate says something that angers the American voter, or when a candidate fails to come up with an appropriate answer to an important question, it can sway public opinion just enough to change the course of the election. This goes double for candidates running in the primaries. Primary debates are when candidates have to be their most aggressive, and have to show they are the perfect choice to run in the general election.
It's during these times that candidates will make their most radical attempts to gain attention and favor. It's also when candidates fail the hardest – and on national television, no less. Here's our list of debate gaffes, debate fails, and other strange behavior on the campaign trail. There's no shortage of candidates killing their campaign with a few poorly-placed words, and we've got plenty of videos showing off presidential wannabes failing, and failing hard.
Barack Obama Finds Hillary Clinton "Likable Enough"
Occasionally, a quip can go south in a hurry. In a debate with Hillary Clinton over the Democratic nomination, Clinton was asked if her "personal appeal" was good enough to best the young Senator from Illinois. Obama interjected with "you're likable enough, Hillary," to which many found to be unnecessary and even cruel. He was handed a major defeat in New Hampshire immediately after, forcing his campaign to focus in order to win the presidency in 2008.
Many other debate gaffes could be argued away as a temporary setback. However, this moment with Rick Perry, where he fails to remember one of the three departments that he would erase from the government (the Department of Energy, not exactly a tiny division), never went away and his decline in the polls accelerated to the point of quitting after the South Carolina primary.
When your campaign consists of restructuring the government, you should probably be able to remember at least three items.
Regardless, his campaign never recovered, and the speech gaffe still comes around as a fun meme soundbyte every now and again.
In the first televised debate ever in the country, candidate Richard Nixon was a clear loser to John F. Kennedy. Refusing to prepare for the debate, and having just recently left a hospital stay, Nixon looked so bad that his mother called him to ask if he were sick. By contrast, Kennedy looked youthful, calm and collected, and many believed it helped in winning him the Oval Office.

When it comes to business, you'll always want to know that you're running things as efficiently as possible. You won't want to realize that you're taking the long route or that you're slowing yourself down. This can often lead to just so much stress. Because running a business can be a tough job in itself. So, on the flipside of that, you'll want to think about what you can do to make your business efficient – and enjoyable to own! One of the things that can help you here, is the idea of outsourcing. When you outsource an area of your company, such as your customer service, finance, marketing, sales, or management, you're bringing in an external company to run that thing for you. Or just do the work that you set them. Either way, there can be many benefits of doing it. Here are some for you to consider.
The very first, and most obvious, reason for why you'd do this, is because it saves you a lot of time. When you are running things alone, you'll often be trying to do too much at once. And this never helps anyone! In fact, it can just slow you down. But when you outsource, you freeing up more time for yourself and that's often a big enough incentive in itself.
Another selling feature is that by getting someone else to do the work, you're harnessing their expertise. When you outsource, you should always choose experts in their niche. When you approach a company that's skilled in golf course management, or bitcoin accounting, or customer service for the blogging industry, you know that you're getting a guru on side. Sometimes, it's worth paying for their experience and knowledge above all else!
When you're handing work out to others, you get more freedom to allocate your own time. Now that you have less on your to-do list, you can get more done. You'll be able to prioritize your work, put your time into the things you know you're good at, or growing the business, and then get others to work on the rest.
Sure, you will be spending money to get others to do work for you, but you ultimately save money in the long run. Why? Well, you have more time to work on the things that matter and experts doing a better job that you can, so your business is being run better and you have a much better chance at smashing your sales in the long run.
And finally, for a lot of people, this is going to be the most important part! Because when you're trying to run a business, and you have a lot on your plate, it can drive you crazy. But when you outsource, you're relieving that pressure. You have less to do, you have more time, you get a better job done, and you can focus on the things that matter the most – so, of course, you're going to be less stressed. And what would be better than that?

Disability Retirement (VRS)
Disability Law Center of David L. Horne, PLLC
Practicing in Virginia Beach and All of Virginia
Workers' Compensation Lawyer in Virginia Beach, Virginia
Do you have serious injuries from a work accident?
With more than 35 years' experience in injury and disability law, the Disability Law Center of David L. Horne, PLLC can protect your right to receive the compensation you deserve because of a work injury, personal injury (PI) and from disability benefits programs and plans.
Why Hire an Attorney
Being involved in a work accident can drastically change your life. A work injury can cause debilitating physical injuries with loss of income and expensive medical bills. A serious injury that prevents you from returning to your job (or that limits the number of hours you can work) can be financially devastating.
Workers' compensation law is very complicated. It gives the injured worker certain rights to compensation but there are many rules and regulations that must be followed. It is important to take steps to protect your legal rights before it is too late.
Financial Compensation for Work Injuries
In most cases the employer has an insurance company who must pay for our client's damages. In the appropriate case, compensation may be paid for the following:
Loss of earning
Permanent Impairment
Loss of income benefits are normally paid weekly or biweekly. In some cases when benefits are likely to be paid over many years, the workers' compensation insurance company may be willing to settle for a lump sum.
Virginia Retirement System (VRS) Disability
Long Term Disability (LTD)
We understand the financial stress disability from serious injury causes our clients and their families, and consider this in the fees we charge. We will evaluate these types of claims and try to structure a fee that considers our client's circumstances and the likelihood of success. In many instances we are able to structure a fee where a substantial portion of the legal fee is paid only if benefits are awarded. Please call us for a fee quote.
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) -
Motor Vehicle Accidents and other Personal Injury (PI)
If injuries will keep you out of work for a long period of time, you may be entitled to Social Security Disability Insurance Payments (SSDI). If you were injured at work because of the negligence of someone not associated with your employer, you may have a separate personal injury claim. In a claim for SSDI or personal injury no legal fee is paid unless benefits are awarded.
We Maximize Overlapping Benefits from All Claims
We maximize benefits and compensation from all available sources. If there is a claim for an automobile accident or other personal injury (PI), an on the job work injury and a claim under a disability program or plan, applying the law and regulations is complicated. Disability programs and plans, and claims for personal injury and worker's compensation frequently overlap.
We can represent you in your claim for personal injury (PI), Social Security Disability (SSDI), and other types of disability and injury claims such as claims for Virginia Retirement System (VRS) Disability, long term disability insurance (LTD), and workers' compensation.
The Virginia Workers' Compensation Act
The Act generally covers anyone injured on a job in Virginia or while working for a Virginia business, a city or state government. (Federal government employees and longshoremen are not covered under the state Act). Any employer who has 3 or more regular employees should have workers' compensation insurance. If the employer does not, then the injured worker may be able to recover from a special fund call the Uninsured Employers' Fund. The Act also covers occupational diseases.
The Federal Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act ("LHWCA")
The Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, commonly referred to as the "Longshore Act" or "LHWCA" is a federal statute providing medical benefits and compensation to workers injured on ship terminals, shipyards, docks, piers, and marine ways or who work on or near the water. Workers are covered if they are involved in ship building or ship repair or loading and unloading ships. Benefits under the Longshore Act are often better than those available under the Virginia Workers' Compensation Act.

Mr. Horne is amazing. I have a rare disease and been fighting for disability for 2 years when he took my case. I had over 5000 pages of medical records and he went through every single one of them and highlighted the important details, But I also went and interviewed five of my doctors. I won my case and all back pay. Thank you!
- The Kure dot info. 9/3/2019
Mr Horne went to bat for me and I was approved for my disability the first try! He is a patient and kind man who truly cares about his clients. Highly recommend!
- Robin Fuller. 5/7/2019
Mr. Horne was instrumental in getting me approved for my VRS retirement. From the first meeting, I felt completely confident in his abilities to represent me, and he did nothing but surpass my expectations. I have already recommended him to several people needing assistance with disability, and will definitely continue to do so in the future.
- Ryan basnight. 0/29/2019
I tried the Virginia retirement system on my own and was denied again and again. For my final appeal I hired David Horne and I have to tell you that I could have never done what he did. He made them see medically all of the pain I was dealing with and the detrimental effects that were occurring personally. Without him I would have lost my benefit but with him representing me I was FINALLY accepted as disabled. His fee is not a waste of money and I highly recommend you contact him and see what he can do for you with the Virginia Retirement System. Knowing what I know now I should have used him early in the process, but I had to learn my lesson. You won't be disappointed!!!!!!!

Frequently and rightly placed in the same context as DJ Premier, Pete Rock, and Kanye West, J Dilla (aka Jay Dee) built and sustained a high standing as a producer's producer while maintaining a low profile. When Pharrell Williams appeared on BET's 106 & Park in 2004, he excitedly declared that Dilla was his favorite producer and told an audibly stumped crowd that it had probably never heard of the man. At the time, Dilla had been active for well over a decade and had netted enough beats -- including the Pharcyde's "Runnin'," De La Soul's "Stakes Is High," Common's "The Light," and several others with production teams the Ummah and the Soulquarians -- to be considered an all-time great. Dilla never produced a mainstream smash and, in many cases, his presence has to be confirmed with a liner notes scan. (And even then, that might not help; he occasionally went uncredited.) He never marked his territory like Just Blaze ("Just Blaze!") or Jazze Pha ("This is a Jazze Phizzle produc-shizzle!"), and he never hogged the mike like P. Diddy. He let his music, and its followers, do the talking. Rather than provide immediate (or fleeting) thrills, he was hooked on working the subconscious as much as the neck muscles. He was so focused on his work that it took a severe toll on his health.
Born and raised on the east side of Detroit, Dilla -- James Yancey -- was forced by his parents to become involved with music, and he was a record fanatic at a young age, absorbing funk and rap singles and jazz albums, from Slave to Jack McDuff. He learned to play cello, keyboards, trumpet, and violin, but drums got him like nothing else. He tried his hand at producing tracks on a tape deck by using the pause and record buttons, and he also took up MC'ing. In 1988, he formed Slum Village with Pershing High School friends Baatin and T3. It wasn't until 1992, after receiving some valuable guidance from fellow Detroiter Amp Fiddler, that his talent really began to take shape.
A session keyboardist who had worked with Prince, Parliament, and Enchantment, Fiddler taught Dilla how to use the MPC drum machine. To say that Dilla was a quick study would be an understatement. Fiddler introduced his protégé to A Tribe Called Quest's Q-Tip, who heard some of Slum Village's material, liked it, and helped get the word out. Following sessions with First Down (a collaboration with Phat Kat, another Detroiter), Little Indian, and alternative rocker Poe, Dilla's production career reached full flight. In 1996 alone, he worked with Busta Rhymes, De La Soul, and the Pharcyde, all the while playing a major role in the Ummah with Q-Tip and Ali Shaheed Muhammad. (He did extensive work on Tribe's last two albums.) Before long, hardcore hip-hop fans began to know Dilla for his steady wobble, which was unfailingly musical and rich in details -- shuffling hi-hats, oddly placed handclaps, spacious drum loops with drastically reshaped samples of tracks both obscure and obvious.
Through the remainder of the '90s, Dilla quietly racked up more output, including Janet Jackson's "Got 'Til It's Gone" (for which he did not receive credit), additional tracks for the Pharcyde, and collaborative work with Q-Tip on all of 1999's Amplified. Largely upbeat and filled with boisterous energy and thick sounds, Amplified is one of many pieces of evidence against the argument that Dilla was about one sound and one style. During the producer's steady rise, Slum Village remained a priority. Fantastic, Vol. 2 and Best Kept Secret (the latter credited to J-88, an SV pseudonym) were released within weeks of each other in 2000. However, the producer would only contribute a few tracks to the group from then on, as his schedule became increasingly tight. As a core member of the Soulquarians, with James Poyser and the Roots' Ahmir ?eustlove Thompson, Dilla worked on Common's Like Water for Chocolate, D'Angelo's Voodoo, Erykah Badu's Mama's Gun, and Talib Kweli's Quality. Through 2005, he continued to work with past associates while dipping his toes deeper in R&B. A favor was returned on Fiddler's 2004-released Waltz of a Ghetto Fly, and a couple dynamite tracks -- Steve Spacek's "Dollar" and longtime collaborator Dwele's "Keep On" -- were released the following year.
Amazingly, from 2001 on, Dilla was also a prolific solo artist. A couple singles and the Welcome 2 Detroit album came out in 2001, and a number of low-key instrumental compilations and incidental 12" singles followed shortly thereafter. Rarely praised for his mike skills, he was often assisted by the likes of Phat Kat, Lacks, and Frank-n-Dank. Wooed by a Madlib mixtape that featured the rhymes of Oxnard's finest over his own beats, Dilla forged an alliance with his admirer for 2003's Champion Sound, released under the name Jaylib. It was around this time that his health took a sharp decline. For over two years, he had to use a dialysis machine. Despite having to perform in a wheelchair, he was still able to tour in Europe during late 2005.
Donuts, an album of instrumentals that Dilla completed during one of his extended hospital stays, was released on February 7, 2006, his 32nd birthday. Three days later, while staying at his Los Angeles home with his mother, Maureen Ma Dukes Yancey, he passed away, a victim of cardiac arrest. While reflecting on the tremendous loss, close colleague and friend Thompson (an authority if there ever was one) compared the producer's level of genius to that of jazz giant Charlie Parker. Karriem Riggins, a close associate, put the final touches on another album, The Shining, which was released six months later.
A dizzying quantity of posthumous albums, EPs, and singles, most notably a greatly expanded edition of the Ruff Draft EP, were issued throughout the decade that followed. In 2014, Dilla's mother, who was involved in many of those releases, donated her son's MPC and Minimoog Voyager synthesizer to the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture. The Diary of J Dilla, which originated as an early-2000s project for MCA, saw release in 2016. MCA had signed Dilla for his reputation as a beat maker, but Dilla confounded the major label by switching to MC mode and enlisting the likes of comrades House Shoes, Waajeed, Madlib, and Pete Rock as producers. After an extended period that entailed major legal obstacles and the recovery of recordings, the album was released in 2016 on the reactivated Pay Jay label through Mass Appeal. Yet another poshumous release arrived in 2017. Titled Motor City, that set consisted of previously unreleased instrumentals selected and sequenced by Maureen Yancey. ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi

Kuehne + Nagel sets the bar for innovation and integrated solutions
The Kuehne + Nagel group has been a leading logistics provider across the world, providing services for airfreight, seafreight, contract and integrated logistics, and overland logistics. With digitalisation and the demand for e-commerce challenging the traditional practices of the air cargo supply chain, the group's constant focus on providing innovative IT based integrated solutions are upping the ante on what logistics providers can provide in such tumultuous times. Cheryl Soh reports.
By PLA Editor
KN FreightNet KN PharmaChain Kuehne + Nagel Group Logistics Learning Hub Singapore Logistics Hub
As a leading global logistics provider, the Kuehne + Nagel Group has a strong position in its sector, with a clear focus on providing IT based integrated solutions. The group's strength in Asia and beyond lies in its network of employees, amounting to a workforce of over 70,000 in 1,300 locations across 100 countries. Specialists with the right knowledge and skillsets develop innovative end-to-end logistics solutions, such as the KN FreightNet and KN PharmaChain; resulting in a steady growth in services offered.
With the strong air freight market in Asia-Pacific during the first half of 2017, Kuehne + Nagel anticipates a growing demand over the peak season. So far, the group has been fortunate enough to not see a traditional slack season, however, the downside is the capacity issues the group face that arises as a direct result. Whilst additional capacity is entering the markets on some main lines, Kuehne + Nagel predicts that space will remain tight especially toward the end of Q3 and the beginning of Q4. Periods including Black Friday, Christmas Sale and other e-commerce promotional periods will also greatly impact capacity levels.
Providing an e-commerce solution
In April this year, Kuehne + Nagel inked a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with China's Alibaba.com. The signing will see the logistics provider offering outbound logistics services to shippers listed on Alibaba, expanding its scope of services to cover various modes of transportation (air, sea, rail, overland) and contract logistics outside China. This announcement follows the launch of a pilot programme in 2016 which integrated the KN FreightNet digital shipment manager with Alibaba.com. Paid Alibaba members are able to instantly quote and book point-to-point air freight consignments via the Alibaba One-Touch platform, including less-than-container consignments.
The KN FreightNet is an online solution that increases the efficiency of placing airfreight orders. Through an efficient exchange of data, the programme is designed to be straightforward, easy to use, and aims to reduce workload and speed up airfreight processes. Quotations can be provided instantly by obtaining competitive prices with highly reputable airfreight carriers, saving time and effort. Users can enter shipment requests and KN FreightNet will provide recommendations of three different airfreight products with transit-times and a range of binding quotes, including fuel and security surcharges. Using the latest tracking technology, the programme also delivers premium supply chain visibility and management solutions to help customers improve productivity and efficiency.
The rising demand for e-commerce has also had a significant impact on the demand for airfreight. Consumers are demanding goods to be available faster and cheaper, placing more pressure on logistics companies to deliver, contributing to capacity issues. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are also demanding quicker logistics processes to fulfil customer expectations. Kuehne + Nagel aims to invest and optimise their e-commerce offerings via KN FreightNet and from working closely with e-commerce leaders.
Maintaining its standing in the pharma sector
As an integral part of its strategy in select markets across the Asia-Pacific region, the pharma logistics arm of Kuehne + Nagel will introduce more developments in countries including Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, India, Australia and China through the KN PharmaChain, a fully CEIV Pharma certified specialised supply chain innovation. Coupled with highly trained experts, every product is ensured to be handled and transported in the appropriate, secure and temperature controlled environment.
Presently, Kuehne + Nagel is investing to upgrade its operations network of KN PharmaChain capabilities, and to expand its network of specialist pharma staff. Plans are already in place to work with pharma customers to expand and invest in strategies that are mutually beneficial. In China, the group has also expanded its perishables air freight services to provide door-to-door solutions, including custom clearances in several locations. This opens up opportunities for Kuehne + Nagel China to successfully handle shipments of live seafood, flowers and fresh food products in a temperature controlled supply-chain.
Further to that, the group will also be expanding their industry offerings in e-commerce, the aerospace sectors and dangerous goods; aiming to deliver viable solutions to meet the various challenges and special requirements of each industry. For stronger established industries including high-tech and automotive, the focus will be on innovation, improved productivity and to deliver customer focused solutions.
State-of-the-art infrastructures and facilities
Kuehne + Nagel has also been expanding on value-creating logistics solutions across the Asia-Pacific region for key industry verticals such as pharma, healthcare, perishables, and e-commerce. In January last year, the group opened its Singapore Logistics Hub, a 50,000 square metre built-to-suit facility that is located near the city-states pharma and healthcare hubs, key manufacturers, and ports.
With 46,000 square metres of warehousing space, the new hub serves as a regional centre of excellence for high-tech, industrial, pharmaceutical and healthcare customers, offering supply chain optimisation and value-chain transformation solutions. The facility also includes a Logistics Learning Hub where the group will drive talent development, training and succession planning to support overall business growth in the region.
During April last year, the group went a step further by upgrading its infrastructure and expanding its integrated logistics team in the Singapore Logistics Hub, which now boasts an approximate 10,000 square metres of cutting edge pharma logistics facilities. The enhanced new hub is designed to create an environment that fosters and facilitates team collaboration and in turn drive solutions.
Situated in a geographically pivotal spot, Singapore is a very important location for Kuehne + Nagel- and this is clearly represented in the recent opening of a new airfreight logistics hub earlier in April this year. As part of its growth strategy, the 5,200 square metres hub will value-add customers in the aerospace, technology, pharma and healthcare industries by consolidating warehousing and administrative operations; greatly supporting operational synergies and cargo turnaround time for customers with time-critical logistics requirement.

Warner Brothers and DC Comics' long awaited feature, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, is an exciting combination of superhero fantasy worlds. We are finally viewing a reality where both Batman's Gotham and Superman's Smallville and Metropolis, exist in the same universe. Written by Chris Terrio (Argo) and David S. Goyer (Man of Steel and the most recent Batman film trilogy directed by Christopher Nolan), and directed by Zack Snyder (Man of Steel, 300, Watchmen), so many of our favorite superhero tropes come into play that the film is explosive from the get-go and is really for the comic book nerd in all of us.
It's hard to imagine an almost 90-year-old nursing home resident with dementia embarking on a solo cross-continent journey in search of revenge. But that's exactly what Zev Gutman, played by Academy Award-nominee Christopher Plummer, does in director Atom Egoyan's unusual Canadian suspense film, Remember.

Missing persons poster spopulate a billboard in a painting depicting a Los Angeles street. Letters litter the sidewalk where a young woman in a polka dot dress holds a baby in a bowl. The baby is Lauren Chai, an Academy of Art University School of Fine Art alum, who painted the canvas for a class project three years ago. The woman is her mother, Mira, who disappeared in 2002 when Chai was 11 years old.
In an effort to send her a message of love and support, Chai has created six paintings, each one depicting one of the last places her mother was known to have been. Entitled Last Known Locations, the series will be exhibited at Little Raven Gallery (1015 Howard Street) from Thursday, May 5 through Saturday, May 7.
Mirta Rotondo is excited. As one of four winners of the SURTEX International Student Design Competition, the Academy of Art University School of Illustration student will go to New York in May to present her portfolio at SURTEX—the leading trade show for art and design sourcing.

While perusing art books in Shenzhen, China a former Academy of Art University student stumbled upon a familiar face on the cover of a masters guide to drawing. Bob Webb's twinkling eyes, full beard and quiet dignity are unmistakably a source for international inspiration. After receiving training as a stage actor, Webb found himself deeply influenced by Butoh [a form of Japanese dance] which has become a driving passion for the past 20 years. A talented man of many hats, Webb varies his time between figure modeling, stage managing, producing local shows and working as a choreographer. Whether behind the scenes or the main attraction, Webb is no stranger to pulling out all the stops to ensure the best of performances.

Many who know her can't help but picture Theresa Shugrue bombing down a San Francisco hill on a pair of roller skates, her long braids catching the wind behind her. Just as much a maverick as she is a muse, Shugrue is part comedian and part blonde bombshell with a healthy pinch of panache thrown in for spice. After entertaining students and instructors for 17 years, she has perfectly honed her skills as both a lyrical figure and character model. When Shugrue is present, it is not a hard stretch to believe you are in the company of a striking Valkyrie goddess or feeding chickens with a back woods frontiers woman, depending on where her whimsy takes her.

Two-time Academy Award winner Sally Field stars in writer/director Michael Showalter's heartwarming new film Hello, My Name Is Doris. Following the death of her mother, Doris finds herself stepping out of the shadows as she forms an unlikely friendship with her young new co-worker John (Max Greenfield). Earlier this year, Academy Art U News had the opportunity to sit down with both Field and Showalter to discuss their new film.

Surface Oncology Asking to Open Trial of Antibody Therapy for Advanced Solid Cancers
by Patricia Inacio, PhD
Click here to subscribe to the Immuno-Oncology News Newsletter!
Surface Oncology is requesting approval to open a Phase 1/1b clinical trial testing SRF617, an anti-CD39 antibody, either alone or in combination with other cancer immunotherapies in people with advanced solid tumors.
The request was submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the company also intends to ask to open a separate trial in another candidate antibody, SRF388, before the end of 2019.
If both investigational new drug (IND) applications are accepted by the FDA, Surface expects to launch their clinical trials in early 2020.
"We welcome this opportunity to dive into the compelling data underpinning our lead programs' differentiated approaches to overcoming the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment," Jeff Goater, chief executive officer of Surface Oncology, said in a press release.
Increasing evidence shows that cancer cells can alter their surrounding environment to produce a suitable location for their uncontrolled growth. For example, these cells can prevent immune cells from penetrating the tumor microenvironment, this way "hijacking" their ability to detect and kill cancers.
To do this, cancer cells need energy. CD39 is an enzyme that is involved in the production of adenosine — a molecule involved in cellular energy transfer — and the breakdown of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a molecule that provides energy to drive several processes within cells.
Accumulation of adenosine can lead to immune cell suppression. Maintaining the levels of ATP, in contrast, increases the proliferation of several types of immune cells, such as dendritic cells and T-cells.
SRF617 is a human anti-CD39 antibody that works by binding to and inhibiting CD39, this way reducing extracellular adenosine and maintaining ATP levels to promote immune responses against tumors.
Preclinical data has shown that SRF617 can enhance the proliferation of anti-tumor CD4-T cells. SRF617 was also seen to inhibit tumor growth and promote the infiltration of immune cells into the tumor microenvironment in a mouse model of multiple myeloma.
These results were recently shared in the scientific poster, "The fully human antibody SRF617 is a potent enzymatic inhibitor of CD39 with strong immunomodulatory activity," during the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer Annual Meeting held in Maryland.
SRF388, Surface's other therapy candidate, is an antibody that inhibits the immunosuppressive molecule IL-27, whose levels are increased in cancer and are linked with poor prognosis. Specifically, IL-27 appears to have a critical role in tumor progression in cancers such as hepatocellular (liver) and renal cell (kidney) carcinoma.
Preclinical data has shown that SRF813 inhibits IL-27 signaling and its immunosuppressive effects. Treatment with SRF813 also resulted in lesser lung metastasis in a mouse model.
"The Surface team is energized by the compelling preclinical datasets across our programs, and is excited about advancing SRF617 and SRF388 into clinical development," said Rob Ross, the company's chief medical officer.
"[W]e believe SRF388 has the ability to inhibit the highly immunosuppressive cytokine IL-27, which gives it the potential to be a potent therapeutic. We look forward to providing clinical updates from the SRF388 and SRF617 programs in late 2020," he added.

RSPCA urges clergy to celebrate animals
September 11, 2008 Animal Welfare, News, Pete's Blog petethevet
The RSPCA is calling upon clergy to celebrate animal services with renewed focus this October following a new Church of England initiative to make 'Time for God's Creation'.
Launched in June, the Archbishop of Canterbury and leaders of other denominations called upon Christians throughout England to put the environment at the heart of their worship this autumn. Oxford theologian the Revd Professor Andrew Linzey said the initiative presented a perfect opportunity for congregations to re-examine their duties towards living creatures.
He said: "It is vital that Christians remember their specific responsibilities towards animals during this welcome renewal of environmental concern. What we call 'the environment' or 'creation' comprises individual creatures, many of them sentient, who need our care.
"Animal Welfare Sunday falls on 5th October, at the end of World Animal Week, and coinciding with the Feast Day of St Francis of Assisi. This provides a real opportunity for clergy to organise services that both celebrate God's creatures and underline the importance of behaving responsibly towards them."
RSPCA director general Mark Watts said: "Many people tend to think that animal abuse happens at the hands of just a few, but in truth as a society we need to think far more deeply about how our lifestyle impacts on animals and how we may be, directly or indirectly, permitting suffering.
"Faith groups can play an important role. We hope they will seize the moment and take a lead in promoting responsible attitudes towards animals."
The RSPCA has published a Service for Animal Welfare booklet, written by Professor Linzey, complete with prayers, readings and liturgies, which is available to download from the Society's website (www.rspca.org.uk).
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, is Vice-Patron of the RSPCA, which was founded by an Anglican Priest, the Revd Arthur Broome in 1824.
The 'Time For God's Creation' initiative follows a resolution made at the Third European Ecumenical Assembly, attended by representatives of Europe's Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican and Protestant churches, that a period "be dedicated to prayer for the protection of Creation and the promotion of sustainable lifestyles that reverse our contribution to climate change."

The lens cap that comes supplied with the Voigtländer Color-Skopar 20mm SL II does not fit, when you have the LH-20 lens hood and a filter on. What a dumb design oversight. However, if you get a Nikon LC-52 52mm lens cap, that fits right in there, no problem. Nice.
I like the design of the Nikon caps better than the Cosina Voigtländer or Carl Zeiss ones anyway. Easy to grab and avoid getting my paw prints all over the lens.
I hope this helps any owners of the tiny high-performance Voigtländer Color-Skopar 20mm SL II. Enjoy!

Q: Appropriate relay for water heater rated for 220VAC/1500W I've created a complete hardware platform using a Raspberry Pi as master/controller, an Arduino nano and two RF24l01 transceivers, which should control some household electrical appliances. The software part and the "low voltage" circuitry is ready and tested but now I'm stumbled on the appropriate relay for higher power appliances, i.e an electric water heater of 50 liters rated for 1500Watt, taking account of a 220V mains voltage. Currently I have two Arduino compatible modules, one rated for 16A at 250VAC (normally-open) and a second one with two channels each rated for 10A at 250VAC as the attached picture below.

The doubt comes in considering that normally water heater uses bipolar switches (I would leave the existent one in place), so the question is simply, should I use:

*

*the first relay (16A, left side of the picture) interrupting only the phase line

or

*

*should I take advantage of the two channels using them one for phase and one for neutral lines?

Any consideration will be really appreciated!

A: My hot water cylinder is controlled by an arrangement similar to what you describe (using a Particle (now Photon) Arduino compatible ARM + WiFi module).
My system is "fail energised" - ie if you depower the electronics and/or the relay the relay is NOT operated and the hot water circuit is powered ON. For my purposes this allows the controlling system to be turned off (or to fail in many cases)  and the hotwater system operates as it would usually do. This may not be a suitable arrangement for a general controller where you may wish to actively enable powering the load.
If you ignore requlatory requirements, which probably say you are not allowed to do what you want to do) then:
(1) Double pole switching is a very good idea safety wise regardless of regulations.
(2) Any low cost hobbyist ("hacker") market targeted relay is highly likely to be dangerously unsafe for mains switching applications, regardless of the standards marks printed on them. It is usual for low cost Asian sourced devices to have such markings and all too usual for them to have no formal basis.
I looked at a number of "Arduino"/hacker targeted relay modules and none that I saw met required safety standards for isolation. Some used Songle" brand relays as seen in your photo. That is not to say that Songle do not make relays which are mains-safe - just that mine weren't and it is likely that yours aren't. The most obvious failing is that they placed the common terminals of the DPDT relays on the same side of the relay base as the coil contacts, so that mains to low voltage clearances were small. The PCB makers compounded the problem by running tracks without regard to their relative voltages. Under situations within the range of normal such relays could kill.
Another major issue is the genuineness of the contact ratings. I'm operating a 3 kW element which is a more severe challenge than yours, but as you talk about "higher power appliances", if this is used in 'plug in' applications you can expect it may be used for a maximum legal load (in many places) of 10A at 230 VAC = 2.3 kW. Murphy says that some Turkey will then add at least a 1 kW bar heater or a 1.5 kW kettle or just maybe another 2 bar 2.3 kW heater. While the circuit fuse of circuit breaker will (or should) not allow this load for long, you do not want to use a relay whose ratings are suspect.
As others have said, it may be convenient to use a relay module such as you have shown to control a well rated quality relay (which is what I do). In that case the power supply and related circuitry to operate the relay board is floating relative to the microcontroller and driven by a "proper" isolator.
Optocouplers are available which have triac outputs suited to driving small relays or larger triacs with which to drive the main relay.
While it may seem attractive to use a TRIAC as the main switch, you will find that the power dissipation is annoyingly high. eg at even 10 A a 1 volt drop yields 10 Watts dissipation, and TRIACS on state voltages will be in the 1.2 - 1.6V range.
Quality relays from known acceptable manufacturers and suppliers are available for probably under $10.00. OMRON & TE Connectivity come to mind but there are numerous trustable brands. Asian products can be top class and many top brands are manufactured in China. But supply via a supply channel whose bona fides are not absolutely impeccable may lead to disaster - regardless of the (apparent) brand on the relay.

These three TE Connectivity relays are SPST but otherwise highly suitable. They only cost about $US3.50 in 1 or 500 depending which part of Digikeys site you read. They are out of stock with large lead time (and probably an MOQ to reorder) so not a final product you'd use from Digikey but show what's available. Ratings are 250 VAC minimum and 20A to 30A.

A: Inductive switching can cause extremley high voltages to appear across the contacts. This can cause damage to the contacts, but worse still, it could jump across the pcb and damage your low voltage circuit.
Personally, I wouldn't use either of these to drive a mains load; instead I would use one of these to trigger another relay that is better equipped to deal with mains voltage/current and inductive load switching and is away from your low voltage circuit.
Double pole switching is great for full isolation, but if you are using two  different relays to control this, then you would need to be very careful to check the mains was not live before working on it. For instance, if the relay controlling the phase was stuck on and the neutral relay switched off, the circuit would be broken(off), but would still be live.
This is only my opinion. I recommend that only experienced electricians work with mains electricity.

A: Safe design of something to control a 1500 watt (6.5A @ 230V) water heater load would be to use a heavy-duty mains-rated relay. This would mean a DUAL POLE relay rated at at least 15-20A at 250V. You cannot assume that either side of the power is "neutral". It is safest to switch BOTH sides of the power.

A: If you're planning to connect something such as ~6.5A, then I'd say you need something at least for 16 or 20A, because the beggining peak current can be more than 100% higher than it is rated.
For the second thing, as someone before me said: you should have double pole relay, since you don't know which is line and which is neutral wire, unless you're planning onto wiring thing nearly forever - in that case, you can use single pole relay, but be sure to measure the wires before you connect and separate the proper wire (line!).

A: Your water-heater load should be resistive, so it's the easiest load to switch: you don't have inrush current or inductive kick.  Nonetheless, you do want to significantly over-spec the relay.
One big problem with working in 120/240VAC is you must be Code compliant with whatever your code is in your country.  This means you must enclose things, do quality work, and use parts listed for the purpose.  And also, do work using materials and methods that an electrical inspector would recognize as proper.  Switching directly with the Arduino module is out of the question.
Parts intended for control of air conditioners are a good option, and cheap because the stuff is made by the millions.  Air conditioners are normally switched by a thermostat using (in America, anyway) 24 VAC, which must be kept totally separate from line-voltage circuits.  Transformers are readily available which install onto a junction box in a Code-legal way, $12 in America.  2-pole air conditioner relays listed for switching 30-40A motors are also in the $12 range.  Common thermostat cable can be used for the hookups.  An electrical inspector who saw this setup would be unlikely to question it.
I would use the Arduino module to switch the thermostat-voltage supply, which in turn would operate the large relay.   The large relay can be anywhere - thermostat wire is cheap.

Q: What is a private building? I've received an offer to purchase all of the private buildings on my island.  Unfortunately, I have no idea what constitutes a private building, and just accepting the offer didn't seem to net me anything.  So what is a private building?  Do I have to designate them somehow?  Is there a downside to selling them like this?

A: Private buildings are buildings that are not owned by you -- you can't set the wages or working conditions, and you don't receive any profits from them aside from a monthly rent. You are expected to make sure it's supplied with sufficient manpower and resources; if it fails to make a profit, it gets torn down.
You can get offers for private buildings if you have a Stock Exchange and either an economy minister or a foreign minister (I think; not sure about the ministers)

Norfolk selected
'Tragic death' of medieval Paston family's daughter revealed
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-norfolk-48530068
Image copyright M Champion
Image caption The heavily abbreviated Latin on the brass has been translated to: "Here lies Anna, daughter of John Paston Knight, on whose soul God have mercy, Amen."
The "short life and tragic death" of a young girl has been uncovered after the discovery of a medieval memorial brass.
Archaeologist Matt Champion discovered the memorial in Oxnead church near Aylsham in Norfolk on 28 May.
Anna Paston's brass was tucked away between two large tombs, obscured by the communion rail.
Mr Champion said the greatest surprise was that she was a member of the "most researched family" of medieval England, yet was unknown to historians.
Historian Helen Castor, an author who has written about the family, said: "This is an extraordinary find - not only a previously unknown Paston grave, but the grave of a previously unknown Paston."
Image caption Historian Helen Castor said the find is "an exciting reminder that we can always hope to find out more, even about histories we think we know"
The 250 by 80mm (9in by 3in) brass is the only surviving memorial to the medieval Pastons.
Who were the Paston family?
Image caption Matt Champion believes the small brass was overlooked because it has been obscured by "famous and splendid" monuments to later Pastons (above)
The family came from Paston in Norfolk and rose from peasantry to aristocracy against the backdrop of the Wars of the Roses
They left behind 1,000 letters, documents, shopping lists, leases and wills in one of the largest archives of 15th Century English private correspondence.
The letters document bitter sieges, legal battles, favourite meals and family feuds
They were hidden away until rediscovered and published in the mid-18th Century
Source: British Library
It says: "Here lies Anna, daughter of John Paston Knight, on whose soul God have mercy, Amen."
Mr Champion said: "The find has brought to light the sad story of a young girl whose short life and tragic death had previously gone unnoticed."
It is believed Anna could have been a child or at most in her early teens when she died.
Image caption The small brass was "hiding in plain sight", obscured by the communion rails, Mr Champion said
Image copyright British Library
Image caption The letters ought to have been destroyed because some contained subversive views on and plots but were instead hidden away
Dr Rob Knee, from the Paston Heritage Society, said the brass "is one of the type commonly used to memorialise an unmarried girl".
It has been linked to Norwich workshops in the 1490s to first decade of the 1500s, giving a clue as to Anna's likely age.
The discovery was made as part of the three-year Paston Footprints project.
