Медаль «У пам'ять війни 1853–1856» — державна нагорода в Російській імперії. Медаль було засновано в ознаменування завершення Кримської війни.

Дещо про медаль
Медаллю «У пам'ять війни 1853–1856» нагороджувались як особи, які брали участь у бойових діях Кримської війни, так і особи, які знаходились під час війни в тилу. Медаль карбувалася у двох варіантах — зі світлої й темної бронзи. Крім того, передбачалося декілька варіантів носіння медалі на різних стрічках.

Медалі діаметром 28 мм карбували зі світлої або темної бронзи. На чільному боці зображені вензелі імператорів Миколи I та Олександра II, увінчані великими імператорськими коронами та сяючим Всевидячим Оком. Знизу, вздовж краю медалі, вказані роки Кримської війни: «». На зворотньому боці надпис-цитата з Псалтиря:

 НА ТЯ
 ГОСПОДИ
 УПОВАХОМЪ, ДА
 НЕ ПОСТЫДИМСЯ
 ВО ВѢКИ.

Всього викарбувано близько 1 700 000 медалей світлої та темної бронзи, включаючи 430 000 з Єкатеринбурзького монетного двору. Більшість тиражу було виготовлено на Санкт-Петербурзькому монетному дворі. Замовлення було досить великим, тому медалі виготовлялися й в приватних майстернях.

Про нагородження
Медалями світлої бронзи нагороджували, головним чином, військових або безпосередніх учасників бойових дій.

 Медалями на Георгіївській стрічці нагороджували:

 чини 4-го козачого кінного полку з Малоросії, який не брав участі в бойових діях.

Медалями темної бронзи нагороджувалися тільки цивільні особи, в тому числі почесні громадяни, що надавали якісь послуги в часи війни, включаючи благодійність, допомогу пораненим і т. ін., поштові чиновники й станційні наглядачі, які знаходилися в губерніях, що були переведені на воєнний стан.

 Медалями на Володимирській стрічці нагороджувалися:
 цивільні чини всіх відомств, яких не могло бути нагороджено медаллю на Георгіївській або Андріївській стрічці;

Build Cultural Awareness: Standing with Standing Rock – It's Not Over Yet
Posted on January 17, 2017 by communityelf
So much is happening these days that important causes come and go, or pass through our radar, as if they're mere trends. It may seem like ages ago that #NODAPL was all over our news feeds – but it was just a few weeks ago that people were pledging their support for the Native American water protectors at Standing Rock, making calls to North Dakota representatives, and sending supplies to the protesters, who held their ground even in brutal conditions.
On December 4, the Army Corps of Engineers made the decision to deny a permit for further construction on the 1,172-mile oil pipeline, which is hailed as a victory. In a statement, the National Congress of American Indians President Brian Cladoosby said "Our prayers have been answered." Importantly, he also said: "This isn't over."
The Fight Continues
It's relatively well-known that this particular pipeline was originally set to run through Bismarck, but was swiftly re-routed due to concerns that the pipeline could compromise the city's drinking water. Standing Rock has been fighting for their dignity, their rights, and even their safety ever since. What is wrong with this picture?
Understanding the #NoDAPL fight is crucial for all of us, whether we're in North Dakota, Pennsylvania, or California – not only because we're sincere in our intentions to protect the rights and safety of our fellow Americans, but because these pipelines affect ALL of us. There are about 2.6 million miles of pipeline in the United States, and since 2010, there have been 4,269 incidents, including 474 injuries.
Support Corporate Responsibility in 2017
Questions abound as a new administration takes Washington, and what is to become of the Dakota Access Pipeline is no exception. It will be as important as ever, in 2017, to stay attuned to the facts. Despite the Army Corps' decision to deny the pipeline permit, the oil company can technically disobey the order, pay the fines, and continue their build.
As leaders in any business, industry, and location, we have decisions to make about the type of world we want to help build through our work and our affairs. There are questions of environmental responsibility, integrity, dignity and respect. Each day we have the choice to build that better world, or maintain a status quo that so often fails those who aren't in power.
Do Your Part: How You Can Help Standing Rock
Protesters remain on-site at Standing Rock in Cannonball, ND, where the temperature is consistently in the 30s or well below. Many people are sending medical resources and supplies to keep conditions safe for those remaining. But the tribe is now facing new legislation from the state that essentially criminalizes aspects of protest at Standing Rock, with little to no communication or consultation with those involved.
If you'd like to support Standing Rock's on-the-ground legal team, you can donate here. To keep the protesters well-fed, you can donate here. If you'd like to discover more ways to discuss the Standing Rock protests with your organization and learn how corporate responsibility stems from the basic tenets of dignity and respect, we'd love to help.

Rent is 500 a month.
How low is the rent?
If they really ripped off the previous property owner from whom you purchased the land and cell tower then they probably are not in a rush to get a new contract with you and end up paying you more.
Get a copy of the lease! Sometimes they are recorded against the property. Ask your carrier for a copy.
The lease is binding and passes with the property if it is signed by the parties involved. This is the purpose of the lease. To protect the interests of the parties.
Upgrades may be protected by the lease. You may have very limited options as to getting more rent/value.
Every one wants to buy you out!
*Escalator ( %annual increase ).
I have ATT/CC and Sprint at one of the most highly traveled freeways in the world. I have been offered nearly a million, but have not sold. Tempting though.
My situation is not typical though.
Call these guys once you get your lease. With no lease, your not even at square one.
Chris, yes we can certainly help provide the expertise you are seeking to renegotiate the lease. Please call us at 888-313-9750.

Q: Error al intentar decodificar un mensaje mandado con Azure IoT Hub en Python Muy buenas, estoy intentando enviar un un mensaje C2D con el SDK de Python de Azure IoT desde mi computador hacia una Raspberry. He programado ya una detección de objetos y la idea es que cuando el objeto se detecte se envíe un mensaje mediante Azure IoT Hub a mi rasp para actuar según lo que yo le diga. He llegado al punto de enviar y recibir ya el mensaje, el detalle es que se envía como cadena de bytes, es decir, por ejemplo: b'ON'. he intentado decodificarlo a string de varias formas, pero simplemente no la puedo manipular, siempre que intento modificar el mensaje que recibo me aparece la siguiente excepción.
Exception caught in background thread.  Unable to handle. ['azure.iot.device.iothub.sync_handler_manager.HandlerManagerException: HandlerManagerException(\'HANDLER (_on_message_received): Error during invocation\') caused by AttributeError("\'Message\' object has no attribute \'decode\'")\n']

Llegue a rendirme e intentar crear una condicional con el Bytearray pero tampoco he podido crear el condicional, por ejemplo lo que muestro a continuación.
if message == b'ON':
     print('algo')

Simplemente lo ignora, aunque si haya enviado ese mensaje, no entra al condicional. Apreciaría un montón cualquier tipo de ayuda.
La función en donde envío el mensaje desde mi computador es este:
def iothub_messaging():
try:
    # Create IoTHubRegistryManager
    registry_manager = IoTHubRegistryManager(CONNECTION_STRING)
    print ( 'Sending message... ' )
    data='ON'
    registry_manager.send_c2d_message(DEVICE_ID,data)
    input("Message send\n")
except Exception as ex:
    print ( "Unexpected error {0}" % ex )
    return

y el código en donde recibo el mensaje es el siguiente, dejo una muestra de como estaba intentando decodificar el mensaje que se envía. El cual el ultimo intento fue con .decode()
def message_handler(message):
print("Message received:\n")
message=message.decode()
print(message)
def main():
print ("Starting the Python IoT Hub C2D...")
# Instantiate the client
client = IoTHubDeviceClient.create_from_connection_string(CONNECTION_STRING)
print ("Waiting for C2D messages, press Ctrl-C to exit")
try:
    # Attach the handler to the client
    client.on_message_received = message_handler
    while True:
        time.sleep(1000)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    print("IoT Hub C2D Messaging  stopped")
finally:
    # Graceful exit
    print("Shutting down IoT Hub Client")
    client.shutdown()

Gracias de antemano!

A: El parámetro message que recibes no es una cadena de bytes como pareces suponer (ya que le estás aplicando el método .decode(), el cual solo existe para cadenas de bytes).
En cambio es una instancia de la clase Message, que tiene varios atributos y métodos que deberías aprender a usar. Aqui está la documentación oficial.
Según esa documentación hay un atributo llamado data que contiene el payload, es decir, los bytes realmente enviados por el dispositivo. Así que creo que ese es el atributo que te interesa en este caso. Puedes probar el código siguiente:
def message_handler(message):
  print("Message received:\n")
  print(message.data)

Si lo que se vuelca es una cadena de bytes (que reconocerás porque tiene una b delante de las comillas), entonces podrás hacer message.data.decode() para convertirlo en cadena normal. La documentación no deja claro el tipo del atributo data. Cabe suponer que sea una cadena de bytes pero no estoy seguro de si la librería la habrá convertido ya en cadena de caracteres, por lo que mejor antes hacer el experimento que te propongo.

Public can use new state-of-the-art football pitch in Derbyshire town
It has got a synthetic grass surface

Sign up to our new Peak District newsletter and never miss a big story
A new 4G football pitch costing £140,000 has opened in a Derbyshire town.
The "state of the art" 70 metre x 30 metre training pitch has been unveiled next to Belper Town Football Club's Raygar Stadium.
Now ready after six years of planning, the synthetic grass surface will be used by both the club's first team and its 14 junior teams.
Once the second Covid-19 lockdown ends next week, the pitch will also be available for other local clubs and the general public to hire.
Initial booking charges have been set at £50 per hour, with an extra £5 charge for the use of floodlights.
The new facility has a playing surface that has been designed to withstand the floods that occasionally affect the local area.
Ian Woodward, the club's chairman, said: "We've worked incredibly hard to complete the project and so many people within the club should take the credit for making it happen.
"We've had quite a few setbacks and many hurdles to overcome to get the project over the line, but the completion of the training area has transformed the stadium into a superb sporting complex, which we are rightly proud of.
"The training area is the latest in a number of improvement projects that have transformed the Raygar Stadium into one of the most impressive and picturesque non-league football grounds in the country."
The training pitch was created by local plant hire and excavation company, J.C Balls and Sons, artificial pitch experts, Tiger Turf (UK) Limited and Lee Brothers Limited, who supplied and installed the perimeter fencing.

Strangeworks Raises $4 Million in Funding
June 19, 2018 by lalorek Leave a Comment
William Hurley, known as Whurley, photo by John Davidson.
Strangeworks, an Austin-based quantum computing software company, closed a $4 million seed round recently.
William Hurley, known as Whurley, the company's founder and CEO previously announced the company had raised $4 million when the company made its public debut at South by Southwest Interactive in Austin.
Just recently, Strangeworks sent out a press release with more details on the funding. Lightspeed Venture Partners led the round with additional investors including Ecliptic Capital, which is Whurley's investment firm. Other investors included GreatPoint Ventures, Lux Capital, BoxGroup and Amplify Partners. Indivudal investors included Bob Beauchamp, chairman of the board of BMC Software; Charles Stonehill, chairman of the board of Julius Baer Group AG and board member of AXA Equitable Holdings Inc.; and Jon Soberg, who led the seed round in the previous company led by Strangeworks founder Hurley, Honest Dollar, which was acquired by Goldman Sachs.
Strangeworks is focused on quantum computing. It plans to design and deliver tools for software developers and researchers and others in the technology industry. It is targeting applications in the aerospace, energy, finance and pharmaceuticals industries.
Others on the Strangeworks executive team include Justin Youens, David Cardona, and several additional members of the original Honest Dollar team.
"I've been working with whurley and the Strangeworks team for several months now, and I'm confident that their approach to building a business around quantum and other forms of unconventional computing is the most audacious and forward-thinking I've seen," Adam Goldberg, partner at Lightspeed, said in a news release. "Strangeworks has enormous potential and I'm excited that Lightspeed has partnered with such an accomplished team."
"We are at the dawn of the commercial quantum era, and by combining an experienced team with a smart go to market approach, Strangeworks is well positioned to lead in this fast-growing industry," Ray Lane, managing partner, GreatPoint Ventures, said in a news release. "Our investment in whurley and his team expresses our confidence in their leadership of this nascent industry."
"I led the seed round in Honest Dollar, which has brought retirement products to a grossly underserved market and is thriving at Goldman Sachs after the very good exit," Jon Soberg said in a news release. "Strangeworks is doing something similar by making a rare and valuable resource – quantum computing in this case – available to more people who can benefit from it. I'm proud and excited to work with whurley, Justin, David, and the team again."
Strangeworks has parnterships in place with IBM Q Network, a worldwide community dedicated to advancing quantum computing, Stack Overflow which together launched Quantum Computing Stack Exchange, a question and answer site for engineers, scientists, programmers, and computing professionals interested in quantum. And it partnered with the European Organization for Nuclear Research to create the CERN Entrepreneurship Student Programme that will send ten Master's students for a five-week residency at CERN this summer.

Revenge Through Haunting: Expression of Women's Anger in the Movies, Tookaidoo Yotsuya Kaidan and Sundel Bolong
Rouli Esther Pasaribu(1*), Meilia Widya Ananda(2)
(1)&nbspFaculty of Humanities, Universitas Indonesia
Tookaidoo Yotsuya Kaidan (1959) and Sundel Bolong (1981) are horror movies from Japan and Indonesia, respectively, about women who are oppressed by men and subsequently take revenge on them after their deaths. The key similarity between these two movies is that they have central female characters who turn into ghosts in order to express their anger towards their male oppressors. This study aimed to see how women's anger is depicted in Tookaidoo Yotsuya Kaidan and Sundel Bolong, using verbal and visual text analysis and the concept of power by Heilbrun, male gaze by Mulvey, and monstrous-feminine by Creed to read the meaning behind woman's anger as it is expressed in the form of a ghost in these movies. The research found that these women cannot express their anger in the real world, which is controlled by the patriarchal order. Life after death is the only space where they can express their anger. Both movies can consequently be interpreted as cultural texts that internalize patriarchal ideology in Japanese and Indonesian society.

L'église Saint-Alexandre de Tartu, officiellement connue sous le nom d'église paroissiale Saint-Alexandre Nevski (en , en ) est une église de l'Église orthodoxe  estonienne de Tartu, en Estonie.

Histoire
La première pierre de l'église est posée le 27 mai 1914. L'église a été construite dans le style de l'architecture russe sur les plans de Vladimir Lunski. L'église inférieure a été achevée à la fin de 1914 et a été consacrée le 21 novembre. L'église était utilisée par les congrégations orthodoxes russe et estonienne, bien que séparément. L'église supérieure a été achevée un an plus tard et a été consacrée le 26 septembre 1915.

Occupation soviétique
En 1940, l'église est nationalisée par les autorités soviétiques. Pendant des décennies, elle a été utilisée comme entrepôt par l'Université d'État de Tartu et plus tard par le Musée national d'ethnographie de la RSS d'Estonie. L'église a été restituée à l'Église orthodoxe estonienne en 1995. L'église a été reconsacrée à l'été 2003 par les prêtres Vadim Rebane et le diacre Timothy Vasel.

Comings & Goings: Carter, Knight
by Debra Williams June 18, 2014 August 15, 2016
Terrence Carter, currently the director and chief academic officer of the Academy for Urban School Leadership, has been named superintendent of the New London CT public schools. Before joining AUSL, he was principal of Barton Elementary, which received an Illinois Academic Improvement Award for showing upward trends in test scores for three consecutive years. Barton also served on Mayor Emanuel's Early Childhood Education Task Force.
This fall, Lloyd Knight will become the director of Lloyd Bond Charter School , which is in the Chicago International Charter School Network. Previously, Knight was a teacher and the assistant director at the school. Before coming to Bond, he founded the Boys Sports Mentoring Group in Newport News, VA, and the Helping Hands Mentoring Program in Raleigh, N.C.
Chicago Commons has won a $1 million Early Childhood Construction Grant from the Illinois Capital Development Board. The grant will support the organization's child development centers in Back of the Yards, West Humboldt Park and Pilsen with the expansion and renovation of classrooms, playgrounds, improved security and technology upgrades.

In between shouts of approval from a crowd gathered on Feb. 21 on Monterey Street in downtown San Luis Obispo to hear local officials advocate for action against offshore oil drilling, white signs glinted in the cool February sun. In all capital letters they shouted, "Ban Fracking." "Protect our Water ... Sign Here."
The signs were draped around some in the crowd like miniature sandwich boards, and their wearers also clasped clipboards between folded arms and their chests.
Judy West and her wife, Virgina Jensen, from Los Osos were there to cheer on Democratic political leaders such as SLO Mayor Heidi Harmon and U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal (D-Santa Barbara) and gather signatures. Jensen said she was "new to the activist movement since the Trump administration."
West, a member of the Coalition to Protect San Luis Obispo County, nodded her head in agreement as she pointed to the signature form she had in her hands. The group was launching its petition to ban fracking and new oil and gas wells in unincorporated parts of the county. It needs to gather 13,000 signatures in nine weeks in order to qualify its initiative for the November 2018 ballot, according to Charlie Varni.
"We were inspired by the work that was done up in San Benito and Monterey counties," he told New Times. "Its mother was Price Canyon. Its father was the Phillips 66 oil terminal. ... Those are the threads that came together."
San Benito County passed Measure J banning fracking in 2014. Monterey County passed Measure Z to ban fracking and new oil and wastewater injection wells in 2016. Oil companies took the measure to court, and in December 2017, a Monterey judge ruled to uphold only the fracking ban portion of the measure. Protect Monterey County has appealed the judge's ruling.


3) In a large bowl, combine the oats, rice bubbles, flaxseed, protein powder and chocolate chunks. Mix well.
4) Lightly oat your palms with coconut oil. Add the wet mixture to the dry and knead together until a 'dough' forms.
7) Remove from the oven and allow to cool before serving.
Serving suggestions: dip it in your favourite nut butter!
They are crunchy for the first few hours after baking them, but then they become chewy and just like a CLIF bar. These would make the perfect delicious breakfast/snack on the go or before/after a workout! Dip these in more peanut butter for the ultimate experience!

2020 Hyundai Sonata Springfield
Returning completely redesigned for the 2020 model year is the stylish and refined Hyundai Sonata. This best-selling veteran of the Korean automaker's lineup is looking better than ever as it waits in the wings to begin its eighth generation - and it has more advanced features than ever as well. Although there will still be a bit of a wait until the official release (slated for October), once the leaves start falling you can get your hands on one of the '20 Sonata's four trim levels: SE, SEL, SEL Plus, or Limited. Each of these trims will have the option of either the all-new Smartstream 191 horsepower 2.5-liter GDI engine or a 180 hp 1.6-liter T-GDI (turbo). Both of these will partner with an eight-speed automatic transmission to treat you to above-average fuel economy; the GDI is expected to get an EPA-estimated combined city and highway 33 mpg, with the T-GDI getting a combined 31 mpg.
MAKE INQUIRY ABOUT THE 2020 SONATA
Plenty of Convenience
You'll be delighted to see just how much luxury you'll find in Hyundai's flagship vehicle. Even at the Sonata's affordable price, you can get features such as a sunroof, a wireless smartphone charging pad, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Bluetooth, heated and ventilated front seating, and the exciting new Digital Key technology (more on that later in this section). Another new offering for this Sonata is a premium twelve-speaker Bose audio system (available with the higher trim levels), as well as a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with navigation and a speech recognition system through Blue Link. A standard 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system comes on the base SE, while the top-tier Limited trim boasts a 12.3-inch screen with an enhanced display that includes four types of views: utility, driver assistance, navigation, and parking assistance. In addition, a 10.25-inch HD screen will allow occupants to control the audio and navigation functions with ease. This display can also split its screen to show audio and navigation at the same time.
The innovative Hyundai Digital Key is one of the most interesting and appealing additions to this new Sonata. Available for the higher trims, this system uses Near Field Communication (NFC) technology to detect when the driver's smartphone is within proximity to the vehicle. On top of this, NFC will be paired to the Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) communications system, allowing you to lock, unlock, and start the car and activate the panic alarm, all via your smartphone. It should be noted, however, that Digital Key is only available for Android users.
Active Safety Smart Tech
High on the list of the '20 Sonata of Hyundai's technology features is the SmartSense suite of advanced driver-assistance technologies. It packages forward collision assistance, lane keeping assist, advanced smart cruise control with stop-and-go technology, and optional highway driving assist that will help keep your car within the center lane while also maintaining a safe distance from the vehicle directly in front of you. Hyundai's Blue Link technology will also be standard on every Sonata for the first three years of ownership, after which you can subscribe to enjoy its services further. With Blue Link's technology, you can conveniently see whether or not the doors are locked or the windows are open when you're away from the car. Blue Link also features remote-start enhancements, including a profile selection system that will apply your personal driver settings for seating and mirror positions, as well as Maintenance Alert Enhancement where maintenance interval tracking will be displayed on the multimedia system.

Let's talk about Mission Impossible!
Thread: Let's talk about Mission Impossible!
I almost decided to start writing up Mission: Impossible (the 1966-1973 one), but after just doing one episode, which took a LONG time (an episode with lots of issues), I don't think this is a good idea. I am tempted, it's just that there are 171 shows (a lot).
That show, which I wrote up, is here: http://mjq.net/mi66/S02E20.htm (this URL may change in the future).
Now don't start yelling at me that I am being too picky in this review, because I know that this show is kind of a fantasy. But in this show, it goes beyond that, even as a fantasy, there are things that just don't make sense. Perhaps I am too influenced by reviewing Classic H50 where I had serious problems about some shows with fantasy elements.
Interestingly, the show right after the one above, The Town (S02E21) was one of the very best! It was directed by H50 stalwart Michael O'Herlihy ... and there are always lots of actors from H50 who keep popping up in the shows.
Christopher L. Bennett has written about Mission Impossible, the original, the 1988-89 reboot and the movies. There is lots of food for thought on his site, which is a blog. You have to keep scrolling down the page, but at some points it doesn't continue as you might expect.
This is an overview of the original Mission Impossible:

A Mr. Mike episode review of the original Mission would be awesome but as you mention, there are 7 seasons to write up at the Mr. Mike level of detail. Patrick White has a very good book on Mission if you would rather sit back and watch.
Mission is all about leaving your brain at the door sometimes. There are also some episodes where I wonder if they were better when they originally aired based on the technology at the time. For example, would this episode work if cell phones were available?
Thanks for posting the links to the blog / review. I like seasons 2 and 3 as the classic Mission line up with season 3 being my favorite. Season 5 is good as it does challenge the premise of the show at times. However, you have to have the first four seasons to establish the show first. Dana Lambert is also my least favorite of the Mission women. I wish Lee Meriwether as Tracey would have been made a permanent star on the show. Season 5 also introduces Dr. Doug often at times at the sacrifice of Willy. In some episodes Doug isn't even being used as a Dr. I realize one could say the same thing about Willy using his strength on a mission.
I agree with most of the episodes listed. My favorite episodes:
The Mind of Stefan Milkos
The Killer
The Innocent
Double Dead
Short Tail Spy
I plan to take either another run through the original Mission (just picked up the Blu Ray set) or another rewatch of Kojak after I finish my rewatch of Five O. I only have season 12 left (gulp).

Longtime NYC friends Jessica Walsh, 26, and Timothy Goodman, 32, launched the blog with the idea of seeing what would happen if they gave love a chance for 40 days — and made the entire thing public. The result led to a massive social media following of readers anxiously gobbling up the daily installments as Jessica and Tim experienced all the highs and lows of a new relationship, both struggling with their own dating demons: Jessica with her tendency to fall too fast, and Tim with his inability to commit to one woman.

A self-described "hopeless romantic," Jessica would hurl herself into every new fling, only to be crushed when it didn't work out. Tim, meanwhile, preferred juggling women to looking for "the one," and admitted he was worried about his inability to commit.
The duo, who have been friends for four years, decided to embark on a relationship "experiment" after finding themselves single at the same time. They settled on a day timeline, and agreed on six rules: seeing each other every day, going on three dates a week, completing a daily questionnaire, visiting a couples' therapist every week, going on a weekend trip together and abstaining from dating, kissing or having sex with anyone else.

UPDATE: PG&E traces cause of power outage in northern SLO Co.
PG&E
By: KSBY Staff
UPDATE (2:05 p.m.) - PG&E says the cause of a power outage in Atascadero and Santa Margarita Tuesday morning was tracked to an underground equipment issue.
As of 1:55 p.m., power had been restored to all but 230 of the original 1,600-plus customers impacted.
The outages began shortly before 6:30 a.m. and full restoration is expected sometime in the afternoon.
PG&E says that since the location of the outage has a circuit extending in a high fire-threat area, a complete line inspection is required before the line can be re-energized.
(UPDATE: 9:45 a.m.) - According to a PG&E representative, more than 1,600 customers in the Atascadero and Santa Margarita area were impacted by two possibly related electrical outages.
The areas impacted in Atascadero include Dove Creek Park on the north end, south to Santa Margarita Ranch Airport, and San Diego Road and Santa Barbara Road on the west, to Los Palos Road on the east. In the Santa Margarita area, Santa Margarita Ranch Airport on the north, east and south to Pozo.
PG&E's crews are on scene working to determine the cause and restore power to all customers as soon as possible.
A power outage in north San Luis Obispo County has left 804 PG&E customers without power.
The outage was reported at about 6:21 a.m. Tuesday.
PG&E's outage map showed the outage affected Atascadero east of Hwy 101 down to areas near Santa Margarita Lake. Customers on both sides of Highway 58 were affected.
Power is expected to be restored by 1 p.m.
We have reached out to PG&E to determine the cause of the outage.


One space located on Drapers Road in London. The space is close to Sir Ludwig Guttmann Health And Wellbeing Centre, Leyton and Maryland. The space is suitable for vehicles up to the size of a Large - (4x4). On-site there is Allocated Space.
The space is available 24 hours on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday & a weekend.
Great location for Stratford and Leyton. 10 min walk to Leyton tube. Space size was fine for my SUV as well.
Easy to find with satnav, certainly would use again and recommend to anyone.
Faultless from start to finish. First time I have ever used the system and will certainly use again. Very hospitable drive owner and great location for the Olympic village access.
I recommend this space. SatNav took us straight to the space, no need to contact the owner. Convenient for the event we were attending at the Velodrome.
Perfect for Leyton Underground, quick communication and allowed us to park an hour earlier for no extra charge as traffic was better than anticipated. Would absolutely use again!
Great location for us near to tube and my sons place. Easy to find and park plenty of room. Didn't speak to owner as we were sorted with everything. Parked for 11 hours great value will use again.
Thank you would use again. 20 minutes from Leyton Orient Football Club. Easy to get back onto main road. 5 minutes from tube stations and nearest pub.

Oriyardori Asal - Film Review
Movies can be entertaining or thought provoking. Tulu movie Oriyardori Asal, falls into both the categories. So, it is clear that why it has drawn crowds in Mangalore and Udupi districts. Oriyardori Asal literally means one better than the other. The film is based on the Tulu drama of the 90's of the same name. Punch dialogues of the drama are part of modern Tulu folklore! Evidently, the film has been able to take full advantage of that.
Objective Note : Film begins with talks of highs and lows of Tuluvas, takes note of the people who have excelled for the right reasons and mentions few who have become infamous for wrong reasons. Also, it discusses the present challenges faced by Tulu Nadu, Tulu language not being included in the 8th schedule of constitution. Director of the movie, Vijaya Kumar Kodialbail has dared to present several issues upfront, which is a positive note for the marginalized linguistic community as well as for the coastal region. In his effort, he also makes a passing mention of the communal tensions marring the region in recent years. What to look out for : Needless to say dialogues are the most entertaining part of the movie. With the likes of Naveen D Padil and Aravind Bolar you are destined for full throttle of laughter all the time. Some of the dialogues and characters have been modified to suit the new age - like driver Babanna's never ending lines - Yaan panpun daada panda... (translated : What I want to say is..) during Bhoota Kola have been totally removed and replaced with his cell phone histrionics or say the character of coconut plucker Naathu who comes well dressed with a brief case to hold the coconut plucking tool! Film is also not devoid of glamour too as it has Ramya Barna of Pancharangi fame as heroine. Famous song from the original drama Bhageerathammana Per, Aitundu Ardhala Neer finds new tune here. There is also a song shot entirely in Mumbai, with lyrics in Tulu and Hindi with a Marathi line too - Sundar Sundar Amchi Mumbai shows Tulu dramatist's longing for Mumbai. Technically, I have no doubt in my mind to say that this Tulu movie is on par with the films made in Gandhinagar.
'Star' Cast : Kannada music director Gurukiran who hails from Mangalore makes a guest appearance in a song. Mr.World Raymod D'souza has a brief role in the film too. Thought provoking questions : An inept government body governing the city, leaders who are not ready to protect the fertile lands from polluting industries, deteriorating values among people - all come under hammer. High literacy rate and the presence of Tuluva people in prominent positions - have not ensured the constitutional recognition for the lingua franca of this coastal region. Though the film puts across these questions to the audience, treatment is superficial.
Asserting identity : Vijaya Kumar Kodialbail already said that he will announce the name of his next movie on the 100th day of the movie Oriyardori Asal. Nice to see such development for Tulu cinema which has only about 40 films to its credit. Apart from that, two other minority languages of Karnataka - Kodava and Beary are also finding their voice through cinema. Kodava movie - Jadi Male got released last year. Kannada actor Shiwadhwaj Shetty is directing the Kodava movie - Naa Puttna Mann. Beary language got its first film ever this year.
Going places : Encouraged by the stupendous success of the movie, Vijaya Kumar Kodialbail intends to release the movie in neighboring Kasaragod, of course Mumbai and Gulf countries, where Tuluvas have a good presence. Not to worry, film is going to be released in Bangalore too. As per the latest information, Oriyardori Asal will be released in Bangalore on Friday, 22nd July, 2011 at Gopalan Cinemas, Mysore Road (7 PM show).
Update - 25/07/2011 : As per the latest info available in media, due to technical reasons, Oriyardori Asal was not released in Bangalore on 22nd July 2011. Instead it will be released this Friday, July 29, 2011.
Update - 18/01/2012 : New Tulu film - Aamet Asal Eemet Kusal starring Naveen D Padil, Sai Krishna and directed by Ranjan Raghu Shetty will be released in the month of February 2012.
Labels: Oriyardori Asal, Tulu Films, Tulu Language

Released in Gopalan Cinemas, Mysore Road & Bannerghatta Road (7 PM showo n 5th Aug 2011.
Nice Time pass.

Oz Migration Policy Rankles Asia
Our Correspondent Aug 17, 2012
Hundreds of Sri Lankans took to boats to reach Australia in the first half of 2012.
The Australian government's recent decision to transfer asylum seekers to Pacific islands to process their applications will undermine efforts to find a solution to the region's asylum seekers and refugees, human right groups and activists warn.
"Policies like offshore processing will see refugees languish on Nauru [Island] for years, and will not make refugees safer, but rather undermine prospects for a genuine regional solution for refugees," Alex Pagliaro, refugee campaign coordinator in the Melbourne office of Amnesty International, told IRIN.
The Refugee Council of Australia also warned that sending asylum seekers to the islands placed them at risk of human rights abuses.
On 28 June the Australian government invited a three-member expert panel to propose recommendations to curb the flow of asylum seekers reaching Australia by boat from Indonesia, Sri Lanka and elsewhere.
The panel recently released 22 recommendations that include reopening the processing centeres on Nauru and Manus islands in Papua New Guinea - suspended in 2007 by the previous government - and urge greater government cooperation with Indonesia to combat people smugglers.
"There are serious questions [as to] whether Nauru or Manus islands can ensure the human rights of asylum seekers and refugees," said Ian Rantoul, a spokesman for the Sydney-based Australian Refugee Action Coalition, who pointed out that neither island has the resources or the capacity to process and care for asylum seekers, or those determined to be refugees.
"Reintroducing offshore processing in places like Nauru is a terrible step backwards for Australia's refugee policy," said Pagliaro of Amnesty International. "We do not believe that this approach will solve anything. Instead, we know that it will leave vulnerable refugees languishing in limbo for years."
Jessie Taylor, a human right activist and lawyer based in Melbourne, said, "The major problem with the proposal is that it is predicated on people arriving by boat, and then being moved on to Nauru or Malaysia after that. It does not give asylum seekers any incentive not to get on a boat - only a disincentive in the form of a punishment, if and when they do."
Other recommendations include an immediate increase in Australia's humanitarian intake of asylum seekers from 13,500 to 20,000 annually with the possibility of reaching 27,000 within five years, a move welcomed by refugee rights groups; restricting the ability of asylum seekers to sponsor family members; and activation of the Malaysia Solution, which is still under negotiation.
In July 2011 the Australian government signed a controversial deal to transfer to Malaysia asylum seekers who reach Australia, in exchange for refugees with official status from the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) in Malaysia.
Under the proposed "Malaysia Solution", which the Australian high court ruled against because Malaysia is not a signatory to the UN Refugee Convention, Australia was to exchange the next 800 boat migrants for 4,000 refugees in Malaysia, mostly Burmese.
The Australian government has announced its intention to seek improved safeguards for asylum seekers from the Malaysian government.
NGOs that submitted recommendations to the expert panel say the restrictions imposed on family reunions of migrants arriving by sea are "inhumane". Under the recommendations, soon to be enacted, reunions could occur only in terms of the family reunion programme applying to immigrants, which takes longer than the humanitarian programme.
"Separating people from their families as a matter of deterrence or punishment is ineffective," said Taylor, the lawyer.
Head of the expert panel, former Australian Defence Force Chief Angus Houston, defended the recommendations' fairness, as quoted in Australian media. "We recommend a policy approach that is hard-headed, but not hard-hearted. This is realistic, not idealistic. [It] is driven by a sense of humanity as well as fairness."
A 2012 study published by the Australian parliament reported that in 2011-2012, 190 boats carrying 7,983 people had arrived in Australia by early July 2012. According to the Department of Immigration and Citizenship, some 5,800 people were being held in detention centres pending status review on 30 June 2012.
More than half of those people had been in detention for six months or longer, and more than two-thirds had been in detention for at least one year.

title: OpenTitan RFC Process
---

## Introduction

The OpenTitan RFC process is the mechanism by which technical proposals can be reviewed and voted upon by the Technical Committee (TC).
More generally, the RFC process ensures changes are appropriately reviewed, gives the contributor community opportunity to give feedback, and helps ensure alternative implementation options are also evaluated.
Many other open source projects implement such a process with varying degrees of formality, e.g. Python Enhancement Proposals, RFCs in the LLVM community, and more.

RFCs can't be used for resource allocation or to "force" other people to do some work.
E.g. "Implement IP block X" is not a useful RFC unless either the proposer is willing to do that work or someone else is interested in pursuing it.

This document outlines the basic structure of the RFC process, with the expectation that it will evolve over time based on the experience of active contributors.

## RFC lifetime

* [Optional: Seek feedback on whether an RFC is desired.
  This is recommended for a lengthy "out of the blue" proposal, to ensure time isn't wasted writing up a detailed proposal for something that is out of scope or that can't be decided upon at this stage.]
* An author (or set of authors) writes an RFC.
  This might be triggered simply by an idea, by a discussion in a meeting, or by a request from a Committer after submitting a PR.
  The TC will maintain examples of high quality RFCs to refer to in terms of structure and approach.
* The RFC authors may solicit early feedback while preparing an RFC, possibly before sharing publicly.
   * If requested, the TC could help to nominate a small group to shepherd the RFC.
* If the RFC potentially contains information that could be certification-sensitive (guidance to be shared), send a note to security@opentitan.org first for feedback.
* The RFC is shared publicly by filing a GitHub issue and tagging with the `RFC:Proposal` label.
* Once the author is happy that the RFC is complete, they submit it to the Technical Committee by converting the label to `RFC:TC Review`.
* The Technical Committee will consider active RFCs in each meeting (those that have been marked with `RFC:TC Review` for at least a week).
  If an RFC saw large changes in the week it has been "ready" the TC may postpone judgment in order to allow more comment.
  They will decide whether to:
   * **Accept**: Indicate they are happy for this proposal to be implemented.
     May be conditional on certain changes.
     The TC will change the label from `RFC:TC Review` to `RFC:Approved` in this outcome.
   * **Reject**: Decided against the proposal at this time.
     The label `RFC:TC Review` will be removed by the TC.
   * **Postpone**: The proposal seemed to have the right level of detail and form, but the project won't be making a decision on it at this time (e.g. refers to work that is scheduled too far in the future).
     The TC will revert the label from `RFC:TC Review` back to `RFC:Proposal`.
     In the case where the TC has not had sufficient time to complete review during a meeting, the label `RFC:TC Review` will remain in place until the review has completed.
   * **Request revision**: The TC feel they could make an accept/reject decision if certain changes were made (e.g. fleshing out a description of alternate approaches, considering changes to the approach etc).
     The TC will revert the label from `RFC:TC Review` back to `RFC:Proposal` until revisions have been completed.
   * **Abstain with comment**: The TC feel that the issue does not require TC arbitration.
     The TC may leave comment suggesting the next action for the RFC, perhaps indicating where the issue should be resolved, such as in one of the other committees.
     The TC will remove the `RFC:TC Review` label in this case.

RFCs should be created at least for any major new piece of code (e.g. IP block), or cross-cutting changes that need careful consideration.
Generally speaking, an RFC should be created when there is demand for one (especially when that request comes from a Committer).
Although it is a power that is not expected to be deployed regularly, RFCs may be unilaterally approved/rejected by the Project Director.
Even in these cases, they would likely still follow the normal review and feedback process.

## Potential future RFC process refinements

The process has been kept as simple as possible to start with, closely mimicking the informal consensus approach being used in the early stages of the OpenTitan project.
However, there are a range of potential improvements that it may make sense for the Technical Committee and wider contributor community to explore:

* We currently have no particular rule on RFC format and structure.
  It may be useful to at least suggest a structure for certain categories of changes (e.g. outline of headings).
* [Rust RFCs](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/) and the [Kotlin Evolution and Enhancement Process](https://github.com/Kotlin/KEEP) both introduce the idea of a "Shepherd", which we may want to adopt.
* If the volume of RFCs increased to the point it was too time consuming for the Technical Committee to handle each review request, the TC may delegate some responsibility for pre-filtering.
  E.g. the Chair/Vice-Chair may make a determination on whether an RFC has attracted sufficient support for further discussion.

White Power Rising
Tom Hayden: We who were raised on the myths of pluralism and melting pots often have a hard time grasping the persistent growth of a Tea Party that still spouts the very doctrines which we believed were obsolete 50 years ago.
"Democrats Try Wooing Ones Who Got Away: White Men", a front page story datelined Royal Oak, Michigan, in the New York Times, March 3, 2014.
I grew up in an early Detroit suburb, Royal Oak, and lived there for 17 years, a model son of the white lower middle class. I attended an extremely conservative Catholic church dominated by Fr. Charles Coughlin. The postwar economic boom seemed in those days to make progress for all a real likelihood. All seemed well in an economy which was supposed to "lift all boats." After high school I entered the University of Michigan at one hundred dollars tuition per semester. The autoworkers' union, which had led militant factory occupations ten years earlier, was winning more than $20 an hour for assembly line workers. One-third of America's corporate sector workforce was unionized for bargaining power. The everyday evidence of upward mobility suggested that black people would follow to the Promised Land, sooner rather than later.
There was a racial divide, of course, one only dimly visible to me. When I was four years old, Detroit's black rebellion exposed the deep rage at northern-style segregation. Fearing the violence, my family migrated to one of the first suburbs, Royal Oak. It was the beginning a white flight that would last for 60 years, turning Detroit into an economic carcass and cutting its population by half. The real story was kept from my friends, and myself, and finally exposed thoroughly in the 2007 book Colored Property, by David Freund (University of Chicago Press). Unknown to me were homeowner covenants limited to "white persons of the Caucasian race" except for their black domestic servants.
But when I went to the University of Michigan, and soon after joined the student movement, it seemed certain that segregation, after a final showdown, was doomed to become a relic of the modern middle class' forward movement.
Now the New York Times is wondering whatever happened to Democratic strongholds like Royal Oak and Detroit. Southeastern Michigan became the birthplace of the so-called Reagan Democrats. White flight has withered Detroit. Auto plants relocated to the South or South America. Unions now represent only seven percent of the private sector workforce. The battered old Confederacy has survived the civil rights movement. The rise of White Power is the result.
We who were raised on the myths of pluralism and melting pots often have a hard time grasping the persistent growth of a Tea Party that still spouts the very doctrines which we believed were obsolete 50 years ago.
In 1962, we who created the Students for a Democratic Society were convinced that the John Birch Society was a pack of raving crackpots ready for the dustbin. But its durability is shown in the simple fact that one of its founders was the father of the Koch Brothers, Inc. The Klan was ready for the museum too, yet it keeps resurfacing in the form of lunatic militias. The doctrinaire Christians, Catholics and Jews were supposed to evolve and assimilate into a new and tolerant melting power Americanism, but instead have solidified on the Right. Issues like poverty and racism were going to fade away in the liberal affluent society, but they are still with us.
It's important to remember how wrong we were in our optimism. Though progressives gained enormous ground over the past five decades, and though Obama's multiracial coalition has become a progressive majority, the adherents of those "obsolete" doctrines continue to adapt and grow.
The White Right keeps on rising. It is now a dominant force across Europe, which some of us recently extolled as a safe focal point for social democracy and environmentalism. The National Front is the ascending party in France, home of our Western enlightenment icons. The basis of this right-wing trajectory is white hostility towards Islamic immigrants coupled with economic austerity programs and the remoteness of the EU bureaucratic elite. In America, the same forces are at work, and it's not too extreme to ask whether the black robes of certain judges have just replaced the white robes of the Klan.
The Tea Party's victories last week in the Virginia and, apparently, Mississippi primaries should deflate any corporate or liberal fantasies that their extremism is out of style. The formidable presence of Senator Rand Paul in the Republican Party guarantees that the right-wing populist moment is here for a while longer. The more moderate dinosaurs of the GOP are cringing and making deals with triumphant followers of Ayn Rand. The US Senate could become the base for an Obama-hating movement by November, cementing three branches of government into one stranglehold.
None dare call this Fascism, but this is how Fascism begins, with the toxic components of racism, recession, and the "threat" of the forbidding Other in the person of Barack Hussein Obama and other illegal aliens.
Yes, it is true that only about one-third of Americans adhere to the core Tea Party belief in stopping the rise of a multi-cultural, multi-racial majority through such varied techniques as election tampering, voter suppression, secret campaign contributions, control of Supreme Court appointments, propaganda from the parallel universe of FOX News, utilizing Christian churches as private political parties, aligning with the Jewish right over Israel, seizing state legislatures in odd-numbered years, and so on.
This numerical right-wing minority already has captured one of our two major political parties and is just two election cycles away from capturing the state. (That's only the official state of course, the one we are allowed to vote for, as opposed to the inaccessible agencies of state and business who now surveil us, steal from us, and bombard our brains with false advertising.)
Here are some relevant facts:
The Democratic Party lost the majority of white male voters back in 1964, at the height of the civil rights and student movements;
The white male vote was decisive twice in helping Republicans take one or both legislative branches in 1994 and 2010;
The Democrats now win four of ten while male voters compared to eight of ten votes from people of color;
Obama managed to win 41 percent of the white male vote in 2008, then slipped to 35 percent in 2012;
Because of the peculiar institution of the Electoral College, half the states are falling under the control of the white, conservative, property-protecting voting bloc pledged to block the rise of people of color, most women, most immigrant families, and nearly all LGBT voters. They also want to protect the fossil fuel industry as its burns through the planet, continue to dismantle organized labor, and increase inequality as if it's the logical result of an unfettered market, and ultimately to Christianize our America.
My explanation for their rise is the fact that they are losing their previous historic privileges. Instead of quitting the fight for dominance, they grow more and more intense as a counter-movement against the real successes of progressive social movements. The fact that they see themselves accurately as a numerical minority only makes them more energized and dangerous. If they can not "take back America", they will segregate into a separate country of their own, using every tool available to block the influence of federal law and "liberal" culture.
There is a belief among some on the Left that the White Right can be won over to an independent Left-Right coalition. Up to a point, this is a reasonable perspective. Rand Paul and many libertarian Republicans do oppose imperial wars, domestic spying, eastern banks and the WTO/UN "conspiracy". They attract young people with their embrace of drug legalization and anarchists with their denunciations of the state. This attraction is something like that of American Jews, feeling beleaguered, forming tactical alliances with the evangelical Christians, or at least until they go up in smoke in the Second Coming. It's a dangerous game, played from a perception of progressive weakness.
But has anyone noticed any people of color at a Tea Party rally, at the primary night when Eric Cantor was dumped, or even at Republican conventions? The few people of color who stray there often are pushed in front of the cameras for the sake of appearance. There are sadly disturbed people like UC regent Ward Connerly, a nice gentleman who seems to identify with the British aristocracy, or the strange Supreme Court Justice, Clarence Thomas, opponent of the affirmative action policies that advanced his own career, or S.I. Hayakawa of San Francisco State, who reveled in crushing a student strike for a Third World studies program. Women sometimes wander into their ranks as well: Phyllis Schlafly, anti-feminism; Anita Bryant, anti-gay; and the bizarre mother-figure of them all, Ayn Rand, atheist, supporter of abortions, worshipper of naked egoism.
Taken together, these odd souls add up to little more a statistical margin of error, a deviation. What is it that some wistful white progressives fail to see here? I for one am pleased that the Ron-and-Rand Paul duo opposes the wars and the NSA, and I have written of my gratitude. But it doesn't impress me when Rand Paul drops by Berkeley wearing cool Levis. What I want to know is why the Paul family still believes in a free-market libertarianism that defends the "natural" right of owners to operate segregated lunch counters? Or why their free-market individualism prohibits a woman's right to choice? Or why in their view workers have no ability to join a union to bargain for their labor? Or why the elderly should be stripped of the Social Security benefits they themselves earned over working lifetimes?
While many progressives may cultivate tactical alliances with the libertarians, there should be no doubt that the Right intends to dismantle the entire New Deal structure that generations have fought to create and preserve. Until they give up their attachment to white power fundamentalism, they should be defeated, not be seen as partners in a decentralizing of America.
So what should be done to counter the rise of White Power? The first need is to be on the offense, exposing the phenomenon and fighting back. The main basis of the fight should be on values that most Americans share: full and equal voting rights for every American, for example, instead of the Republicans' concerted effort to buy the democratic system with contributions. Second, to call them out properly. Nothing outrages the White Right more than being called racist. They may not be racist in the 19th century sense, but we do live in a time of the New Jim Crow. What puts the White Right on the defensive is the overwhelming evidence that the effect of their beliefs has led to a re-segregation of our politics, economy, education system and culture.
Perhaps most importantly, their economic populism should be separated from their preference for whiteness. The honorable history of American populism, represented today by figures like Texas' Jim Hightower, has been tragically marred by racism. So too is the history of the New Deal, which excluded people of color (domestics, farmworkers) from most of its benefits. Of paramount importance today is the fact that many of the economic benefits that once went to white people are no longer being delivered.
The striking failure of our corporate system today is that it fails to enhance the standard of living for white middle class and working class people as in days of old.
The striking failure of our corporate system today is that it fails to enhance the standard of living for white middle class and working class people as in days of old. People have to work longer hours for less pay and benefits, usually with two members of the household struggling to make what a single "breadwinner" earned in 1973. A downward economic spiral mixed with a rising racial gap is the crisis driving the rise of White Power and its evil companion, growing economic inequality.
Democrats and many local progressives are smart to push for a higher minimum wage and better, for livable wages, to at least mitigate this erosion of purchasing power. A global living wage would further challenge our irrational subsidizing of sweatshops which bring wages down at home. This means that extending the New Deal, not shrinking the safety net, is the most direct way to prevent our descent into racial strife. Yet our domestic austerity programs combined with secret trade deals for the privileged are paving theroad to racial hell.
The single greater indictment of the corporate economy and contribution-driven politics of ourwealthy country is the indifferent inability since 1973 to raise the wages and bargaining power for middle class and working people, and keep quality education affordable. That is the greatest correctable default, which fuels the growth of the White Right. Left-wing populism, not austerity and corporate liberalism, is essential to containing the rise of the White Right.

Wellcome Book Prize Shortlist: The Vaccine Race
April 18, 2018 / Laura
The subject-matter of Meredith Wadman's The Vaccine Race: how scientists used human cells to combat killer viruses seems to have taken a number of readers (including me) by surprise. Partly – at least in my case – this is due to not reading the sub-title and the book blurb properly. But it's also because The Vaccine Race is about lots of things, all at once, so it's difficult to summarise in a few sentences. One big story that Wadman is telling is about the life and career of Leonard Hayflick, best known today for discovering the 'Hayflick limit', or the fact that cells in a petri dish will only divide a fixed number of times before they cease to divide at all, and then die. While this may not sound especially exciting to non-scientists, Wadman emphasises both how revolutionary this was when Hayflick first proposed the idea in 1961, and how the discovery 'opened the door to the study of cellular ageing.'
Later, scientists such as Alexey Olovnikov would build on Hayflick's work by proposing that the Hayflick limit was due to shortening telomeres on the ends of cell chromosomes. When cell DNA is replicated by DNA polymerase (the protein that copies DNA sequences when cells are dividing), DNA polymerase is unable to copy bits of DNA on the very ends of the chromosomes, and so the telomeres shorten each time. Olovinkov proposed that it's these shortened telomeres that lead to cell ageing (although scientists think today that it's much more complicated than that). This could be a book in itself – but actually everything I've just said is contained in a couple of short chapters of The Vaccine Race.
One of the main subjects of the book – although again, not its only concern – is Hayflick's other key discovery, the development of the WI-38 cell line. In short, Hayflick grew cells from the lungs of an aborted human foetus to create healthy diploid cells (cells with two sets of chromosomes, like all human cells except egg and sperm cells) that could be infected with viruses. These cells could then be developed into 'clean' vaccines, addressing concerns about vaccines currently on the market, such as one rubella vaccine that was grown in green monkey cells even after researchers caught the Marburg virus from these monkeys. Wadman details how polio, rubella, adenovirus and rabies vaccines, among others, were developed from Hayflick's WI-38 cells, and how, after initial resistance from the National Institute of Health (NIH) in the US, they came to be in great demand.
But alongside its account of the development of scientific knowledge, The Vaccine Race also touches on the history of biology as a discipline in the US during the period covered by the book (roughly 1940 to 1980, although it occasionally stretches back further or jumps forward.) Biographical sketches of the main actors, most notably Hayflick and his one-time colleague, Stanley Plotkin, play a significant role. Wadman also talks very briefly about how biological research was understood in the US at the beginning of this period, and how that changed. In short, she suggests, biology shifted from a form of public service to something that it was acceptable to make money out of. In 1980, two key events marked this metamorphosis: the Diamond v. Chakrabarty case, which allowed living things to be patented in the US for the first time, and the Bayh-Dole Act, which stopped ownership of inventions that had been developed through federal research funding passing automatically to the federal government. (One of my favourite scenes in the book was when Hayflick drove cross-country to a new job carrying a portable nitrogen freezer full of WI-38 cells, defying the rule that the government had automatic ownership of his work.) As a historian, I couldn't help wondering (again) if it was all a bit more complicated than that; but Wadman doesn't have the space to delve any deeper.
I enjoyed reading The Vaccine Race. Wadman writes clearly and compellingly, and given how much material she's handling, managing to structure the book sensibly is a feat in itself. But I felt that The Vaccine Race was often not one thing or the other. Is it a history of biology in post-war America or a layman's account of how vaccines are developed? Is it about cell ageing, immunology or epidemiology? I liked hearing about all these subjects, but I wondered if a tighter focus might have made the book more memorable, although it's still very much worth a look.
