'When the crows visit' – playwright talks misogyny, power relations and morality as premiere hits London
Posted On: 29th October 2019
By: Asian Culture Vulture
How much conflict can there be between a son and a mother who knows her offspring has erred and seriously wronged another woman…
By Suman Bhuchar
INSPIRED by Ibsen's 'Ghosts', Anumpama Chandrasekhar's new play 'When the Crows Visit' is a searing examination of contemporary gender relations.
"When a son returns home after being accused of a violent crime, a mother is forced to confront the ghosts of her past when the crows visit," reads the promotional blurb.
Chandrashekhar has been lauded as one of the most important (Indian) playwrights working in theatre today by Indhu Rubasingham, the creative director of The Kiln Theatre in London, where the play has its press evening today (October 29 after previews from Wednesday ) and the production will run until November 30.
Hema (Ayesha Dharker) and Akshay (Bally Gill) in 'When the crows visit')
Rubasingham herself directs and www.asianculturevulture.com caught with up Chandrasekhar to talk about patriarchy, power and being a playwright in these fractious times.
"It is inspired by Ibsen's 'Ghosts', but it's not a transposition primarily because I am a twenty-first century female Indian playwright and he was a nineteenth century Norwegian playwright," Chandrasekhar told acv before it has seen the play.
'Ghosts' deals with the story of a widow building an orphanage to preserve the memory of her dead husband, whereas in real life he was a violent, debauched, immoral man – and the consequences of that on the family.
The themes it deals with are morality, hypocrisy, gender violence, incest and euthanasia.
Anupama Chandrashekar
Chandrasekhar explained that the themes of 'Ghosts' are resonant with what is happening in our own culture (i.e. Indian culture) about how patterns are repeated.
"I was very interested in a cycle and the patterns of behaviour being repeated by generations and thinking about this play and gender violence in India – including the *Delhi incident – and seeing the attitudes of the general public, where they were going past the mutilated body of a girl and did nothing.
"What is it about our own society that makes us turn a blind eye and stops us from taking a stance?
"Misogyny is embedded in our system and has been passed on from generation to generation. While the concept of 'Shame' was true in 19th century Norway, it is still true in 21st century India.
"I have many things that cause me concern in Indian society and one is the position of women, which is starting to regress under this right wing government," she argued. "My grandmother who grew up in pre-Independent India used to tell me that the independence movement brought together a whole lot of women and progressive ideas. But she now asks what has happened to you people? Why have you regressed?
"Progress is happening in pockets, but women's rights are taking a bit of a back seat and as women we should be we watching out for each other and we aren't.
Hema (Ayesha Dharker)
"If a brutal crime takes place in the city we take note, but if it happens in the rural area we do not."
This is her third collaboration with Rubasingham, and the two met when her play, 'Free Outgoing' was about to be programmed at the Royal Court.
They were introduced through Elyse Dodgson (who ran the International Department at the Royal Court before becoming its director and sadly passed away in October 2018), and the then artistic director, Dominic Cooke (2006-2013).
It was akin to an arranged marriage.
"She's a Tamil woman like me (but from Sri Lanka) and our culture is similar.
"She would totally get my world in a way that a few directors can.
"After that, we did 'Disconnect' which is very different and about upcoming urban processionals but the ethos was Tamil and she got both the content and the form."
Jaya (Soni Razdan), Akshay (Bally Gill)
As a playwright whose work is now internationally recognised, Anupama Chandrasekhar has come a long way since she began her debut at Royal Court.
'Free Outgoing' was based on a real incident of a schoolgirl who had sex with her boyfriend which was filmed by him and shared widely on social media causing moral outrage amongst the community.
It premiered at the Royal Court Upstairs in 2007 and was so successful that it was revived in main theatre in 2008 before going to the Edinburgh Fringe that August.
She was a runner up for the Evening Standard Theatre Award's Charles Wintour Prize for Most Promising Playwright in 2008.
She was also shortlisted for the John Whiting Award and the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, becoming the first Indian to be nominated for any of these awards. (More on 'Free Outgoing')
'Disconnect' (2010), is a black comedy set in Chennai that deals with the phenomenon of call centres where Indian workers pretend to be Americans complete with fake accents and a back story and the effect of this farcical life on their own situation.
Her work has been described as having "caustic wit and wry compassion" by playwright Simon Stephens.
'When the Crows Visit' was commissioned by Rubasingham when she became artistic director at the Kiln in 2012.
The two continued to have conversations and pondered why in a changing society, misogyny still had a place.
Jaya (Soni Razdan) and Rangini (Aryana Ramhalawon)
In 2016, Chandrasekhar was selected by the National Theatre to be its first International writer-in-residence for a year. This gave her the space and time to think about theatre, explore different types of work and write. She is working on a play commissioned by the National.
She currently lives in Chennai with her parents and grandmother and is an only child and only daughter.
"It was quite transgressive at the time when my parents had me and (they) made no attempts at trying for a son. Given their income they could only have one child."
Her father was an engineer who has now retired and her mum is a homemaker.
This upbringing freed her to pursue the arts – however playwriting was not on the agenda, until one of her professors at the University of Madras where she was studying English literature pushed her into attending a writing workshop.
"I am so grateful to her now, I was so shy and diffident, but I did a first draft of a play, which was sent to the Royal Court, so in January 2000 it invited me to the International Residency programme in Mumbai.
"At the same time I got admitted to do a journalism MA in University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign."
Hema (Ayesha Dharker) and Inspector (Asif Khan)
In Mumbai she met Carl Miller (playwright and dramaturge) and Phyllida Lloyd (film and theatre director), and "it changed my life when I saw what theatre could do".
Chandrasekhar has collected three masters' degrees and spent time doing freelance business journalism, but writing plays and being in the theatre is now a full time commitment. She pointed out that the state of theatre in India is "bad" and it is surviving against the odds.
"Theatre is flourishing in towns where they have dedicated theatre spaces such as Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore.
"Other cities are at a disadvantage because they don't have dedicated theatre spaces – they have auditoriums and so theatre going is not on everyone's agenda.
"If you have an evening free you wouldn't think of going to the theatre, you'd go to the cinema. There is no or hardly any state funding, people either get sponsorship or they use their own money to put on work."
Despite this hardship, she wants to explore the verbatim theatre technique as she thinks it's a fluid form to respond to fast paced events in India at the moment, because the news media has "relinquished their duty as purveyors of facts and the bias I am seeing in newspapers and television is unprecedented.
"They are crawling before their political masters and this has never happened before.
"Theatre can definitely bridge that gap and theatre can do what media can't. It's part of my long-term plan."
There are very few playwrights in India commenting on contemporary society and Rubasingham considers her an important voice "In my opinion, she is the most important voice coming out of India and it is a real privilege to be directing and producing her new play here at Kiln Theatre."
*Often referred to colloquially as 'India's daughter' – this is the incident in December 2012 which shook the world when a young woman was brutally raped by a gang of men on a bus in Delhi and then thrown out onto the roadside with her male companion. She later died in hospital and the incident sparked riots and unrest in India.

Rolls Royce Armoured Car 1920
WWII British Armoured Car Pattern 1920 Mk1
by: Pat McGrath [ EXER ]
The Rolls Royce Armoured Car was designed on the RR Silver Ghost chassis in 1914, although by the time the first vehicles were delivered in December the opposing armies in Europe had become bogged down in trench warfare in which there was no place for a fast moving armoured car. This kit depicts the 1920 pattern which saw extensive action in the Irish Civil War and continued in service with the Irish Army until 1944.
The vehicle also saw some service in the interwar years in the Middle East in "Police Actions".
A number of 1920 and 1924 pattern cars were still in use by the British Army at the beginning of the Second World War and saw service in the Middle East and on the Home Front in Britain until replaced by more up to date Armoured Cars.
The kit comes in a quite a small box (200x 300x 45mm) containing:
•8 sprues of a mid green plastic.
•2 black vinyl/rubber sprues containing 4 tyres each.
•1 sheet of decals with options for two vehicles.
•A small sheet of plastic film with the lenses for the car's lights outlined by black circles.
•A 12 page Instruction booklet
The Instructions:
The unstapled instruction leaflet has an essay about the development and service history of the vehicle. This is well written though it is not confined to the 1920 version which is the subject of the kit.
The second page gives the vehicle's technical info, the usual useful advice about how to remove pieces from sprues and the key to the symbols used in the assembly instructions. Also included here is a key to the painting instructions with references for the Model Master paint range.
Next on pages three and four we are shown the sprue layout. The assembly instructions take up 7 of the remaining pages with the last page showing the decal placement and painting guide.
The assembly instructions are shown in the form of exploded line drawings and outlined in 36 sub assembly steps. Sounds daunting but a lot of the steps are simple such as gluing the steering wheel to the steering column. There are only two lines of text in the assembly instructions, one indicating the color of the chassis frame and the other indicating where the included 303 rifles should be placed.
I'll go through the parts in order of assembly, although I won't go into each part in detail. What I will concentrate on is omissions and potential problems in assembly. I don't have a set of plans for this vehicle so I can't comment on the correctness of the height, length, width etc., at this time. I will be starting a build log of this kit and hope to have the opportunity to measure Sliabh na mBan, which is the surviving 1920 Pattern Rolls Royce Armoured Car in the Curragh Military Camp.
There are some heavy knockout marks on a few pieces but these, as far as I can tell at this stage, will not be visible when the kit is assembled.
The Engine:
The engine parts are on sprue E. There are no knockout marks on any parts that will remain visible when the engine is assembled, and two barely noticeable sink marks on my review sample. The attachment points on the fan blades are awkwardly placed and the part will have to be carefully removed from the sprue. The same goes for the pipes and tubes of the engine which also have a small amount of flash on them. Of necessity, this being a plastic kit, the engine is simplified and adventurous modelers can refine parts and add much of the fine tubing and leads present in the real engine with fine wire. There is no option to show the bonnet/hood open without some major surgery.
Axles and Wheels:
The Axles are well cast with only the usual seam lines common to any plastic kit. There is a small amount of flash on the wheels but nothing major. The tyres come 4 on a sprue and annoyingly are attached in three places to the sprue. The vinyl is very soft and cleanup may be difficult. My prediction is that replacement tyres is one of the first aftermarket sets we'll see for this kit. The thread pattern is close enough to the period photos I checked.
The Chassis Frame:
Most kits have this as a one piece item, but here we need to join the two sides together so attention will have to be paid to proper alignment of parts. This subassembly contains the exhaust pipe, the end of which is flattened slightly as it should be, but in my kit there was evidence of mold shift. I plan on replacing the end piece with a piece of brass pipe which should give the hollow appearance and be easy enough to flatten. That's if the part is visible on the completed model- if it's not then I won't bother.
A rudimentary interior is provided for the hull with steering wheel and column, seats, brake, clutch and accelerator pedals and brake and gear levers. From examination of the parts I can't see any problem with the wheel and axle assembly and fitting it to the frame. The interior of these vehicles was quite sparse anyway.
The Exterior Body Work:
The assembly of the bodywork shows it to be made up of nine parts including the rear doors. The exterior of these parts show some texture. In some areas this is quite subtle and will look good with the right paint job, but some of it is a little bit overdone.
The parts for the superstructure at the back of the vehicle are all cleanly cast and should go together well. The rear doors and the armoured cover for the radiator are a bit thick and could be sanded down, but then the rivets and other details will need to be replaced.
Lenses for the headlights, side lights and searchlight are provided in the form of a sheet of acetate with the correct size circles outlined in black. Clear plastic parts would have been better here. The headlights and searchlight are quite big-approx: 7mm and I'm not sure if aftermarket lenses are available in that size- does anybody know?
Turret:
The turret, including the interior parts and machinegun, is made up of 15 parts. I was disappointed in the machinegun as I feel the detail is quite soft. The shield for the MG has two knockout marks on its rear face and these will be visible after assembly so they will need to be sanded flat. Like the rest of the body work, the turret plates show some texture, heavy on some panels, completely smooth on others. Judging from the extant examples in private collections and museums not much texture is evident but it has to be said these surviving vehicles carry eighty years of paint.
Four .303 Enfield rifles are provided and one of only two lines of text in the assembly guide says these should be freely placed in the interior. I feel this is wrong and they should be placed in the nearest bin. They are terrible and bear only a remote resemblance to the real weapon.
Rivet Counting:
For this review, and this review only, I became an actual rivet counter. Looking at period and museum photos, I examined the number and placement of the rivets on the armoured car.
In general the kit is correct but on the front plate of the turret there are a couple of mistakes. On the bottom of the plate there should only be five, not seven, rivets and between and just above the two rivets on the lower left hand side of the turret should be two extra rivets close together. On the top of the plate, although the number of rivets is correct, they are evenly spaced apart when they shouldn't be. Conversely the rivets around the opening for the MG are not evenly spaced and they should be. The accompanying photo of Bovington's RR shows the proper placement. This should be easy enough to rectify with a sharp blade and some careful gluing.
Any further problems with assembly or parts should become clear when I start the assembly blog.
The Decals and Painting Guide:
The decals provided are for two vehicles:
•SV 4996 Royal Tank Corps, Derbyshire 1939
•Ajax No 1 Squadron Egypt/Iraq 1940-43
The color given for SV 4996 is Model Master Royal Hussars Green and that for Ajax is Africa Mustard. Check your references for other manufacturers' colors.
The Ajax decals include parts for a large air recognition roundel for the top of the turret. This will need careful placement over the rivets on the turret roof.
Roden are to be applauded for producing the RR Armoured Car as their first 1/35 vehicle kit. The detail is a bit soft in places but this looks like a very buildable kit that with some TLC will produce a great model. It would be good to have included marking options for an Irish vehicle or one of the cars used during the thirties in the Middle East.
Highs: Terrific choice of subject.
Lows: Detail soft in places. Wrong placement of some rivets.
Verdict: I like this kit, true the detail is soft in places and some of the rivets are wrongly placed, but it does look extremely buildable.

Our Thanks to Roden!

Hi Pat, great review, very helpful. I will be buying this kit, good news about the quality. To answer your question in the review about the headlights - yes, MV Lenses make lenses to fit the approx 7mm headlights. Part #402 is 6.73mm, or part # 403, 414, 415 are 7.14mm.
Murdo
Mmmmm! That looks nice! I want one.
Thanks for the comments, There's a great video on youtube showing the RR in action and as a bonus there's a very nice soundtrack that kicks in at 00.52. The car joyriding around O Connel St in Dublin 1919 and intimidating the public is the 1914 version. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZkfqWTv7Wo Some great shots towards the end of A/Cs in the middle east with a ring mounted to the turret with a lewis gun fixed to it. Keith. No the Resicast one is the 1914 which was on an earlier chassis and had some other differences including a lower turret, flat fenders and spoked wheels. It wouldn't be too difficult to backdate this version to 1914 if you could get your hands on spoked wheels. Matt thanks for the info on the lenses I'll try to get my hands on them.

Greetings all; The good folk at Roden sent me one as well. So naturally I am interested in using it in a diorama. I am thinking about backdating it to a modified 1914 version from about 1918. In the mean time I came across this over at the Roden site. Note the Vickers MG is not bored out. If it was a safety cap there should be a small chain hanging from the flash suppressor. Imagine having one of these doing sentry duty on an airfield, in a convoy or passing by a nosed over aircraft.
Hi Stephen, It certanly builds up well, I've seen a couple of these built now and they look great. Another one for the shoping list. Pat, BTW how many did you order!!! Al
That looks like a superb wee model. I definitely want one now!
Word of caution on the instructions. Step 1 - 3, Do yourself a favor and unite the basic engine halves before adding the generator, magnetos, carburetor, distributor cap, plumbing, water and oil pumps. There should be a solid foundation first rather than trying to align the engine halves after everything is attached externally. http://www.esatclear.ie/~curragh/sliabh_na_mban.htm

Q: Taylor Theorem conceptual question Need to solve following--
Let
$$
f(x)=\begin{cases} 0&  -1\le x\le0\\ x^4& 0\lt x\le 1\end{cases}
$$
IF$$  f(x)=\sum_0^n\frac{f^{(n)}(0)}{n!}(x)^n + \frac{f^{(n+1)}(c)}{n+1!}(x)^{(n+1)}$$
is the  Taylor's formula for f about x=0 with maximum possible value of n,
then what is the value of c for$$0\lt x\le 1$$

A: Hints:
$$f'(0)=f''(0)=f'''(0)=0\;,\;\;f^{(n)}(0)\;\text{doesn't exist}\;\;\forall\;n\ge 4\;\;\text{(why?)}$$
So you can do a McClaurin polynomial only of order three and leave the fourth derivative for some $\;c\neq 0\;$

Largest inventory of containers on the Big Island.
Roll-off service is provided for temporary placed trash dumpsters as well as certain specialized compactors. The bins are called "roll-off" because the bin itself is typically configured with small back wheels and the truck uses a hoist and a tipping bed to roll the bin on and off the truck. At Business Services Hawaii, our roll-service includes the rental of the bin, the delivery of the bin to the site where it is needed, the pick-up service when the bin is full (or the service time is complete) and disposal of the collected waste at a sanitary landfill. Open top containers are typically used for collecting construction and demolishing debris, remodeling debris and other bulk waste. Our roll-off sizes that we have available are 10 cubic yards which is 10' L x 8' W x 4' H and 30 cubic yards which is 20' L x 8' W x 5' H.
Business Services Hawaii provides outstanding service in a safe, efficient and cost-effective manner by experienced and trained drivers and support staff. Contact us in Keaau for island-wide service of pre-scheduled or on-call hauling of compactors and open-top containers.
On-call pickup with 24-hour notice.
Full service compactor maintenance, repair and sales.
To request a quote for roll-off service, please give us a call or visit our office in Kea'au, Hi for a free estimate.
Please note: do not mix any kind of metal with rubbish. Special handling fees may be charged by the county if this should happen. If disposing of concrete, only half the roll off can be filled.


There are certain artists you should simply never miss when they come through your city or town. Whether they're playing a living room, a dive bar, a club, or a festival, you should simply do whatever you can to get there.
Aaron Lee Tasjan is one of those artists.


I can't count the amount of times that I've walked by a poster advertising a new play on campus, and said "oh, I'm going to go to that!" If you've followed my blog posts for a while now, this won't come as much of a surprise to you; I am the queen of wanting to get involved in something, and then never actually doing it.
So this week when my friend invited me to come and see her in the Trinity College Dramatic Society's performance of the Twelve Angry Jurors – I knew I had to stick to my promise.
I decided to take this as an excuse to have a night out, a "night at the theatre" so to say. It's only three weeks into the semester and I already feel as if I'm clocking more hours at Robarts than in my own bedroom. I figured this was the perfect excuse to take a well deserved break.
We started our night up on Bloor at Gabby's Bar & Girl to grab a quick bite before the performance, which started at 8pm. Pulled pork and fries may not be the classiest of pre-theatre meals, but hey – I'm on a student budget here (and it was delicious).
We got to the theatre early to purchase tickets from the door and get our seats in the George Ignatieff Theatre. The stage itself was small, but the theatre filled up quickly with family members and friends of the performers, and a couple campus reporters as well.
When the play began I was immediately captivated. I hadn't done much research about the play before hand, but the general synopsis involves a group of Jurors arguing over the innocence of a man accused of killing his father.
The entire play takes place on the same set, with no more than 13 characters on stage at one time. It was intense and dramatic, with the perfect amount of comic relief. The characters delve into topics such as immigration, racism, prejudice, and the idea of "reasonable doubt". Although you never see the accused man, or any characters other than the jurors and a security guard, through the discussion you feel as if you have an clear picture of the entire trial.
The actors themselves portrayed their characters skillfully, shedding tears at some points and genuine smiles at others. Although the play itself was only an hour, when it was over I felt as if I had known these characters all my life.
When the play was over we waited in the lobby to see our friend, then walked home discussing everything we had just seen. The best part of seeing a play, movie, or any theatre production, is the ability it has to take you away. For a given amount of time it transports you into another storyline where the problems of your world don't seem to matter anymore.
So I've ticked something off my campus bucket list, and managed to find a new favourite past-time in the process. I would love to hear your experiences with campus productions, including any plays that I have to see. Leave them in the comments below, or send them to me on twitter at @Rachael_UofT.
If you've never seen a play on campus, I would highly recommend it! With numerous on-campus productions happening every year, there's sure to be a play that interests everyone, and a ticket price to match your budget.

I never thought I would visit Hawaii in my lifetime, let alone have the opportunity to go back for a second time. But that's exactly what happened when another Automattic team met in Kauai to work on an exciting new project.
The work week was extremely productive, we had a bunch of discussions, and spend lots of time staring at our screens typing code or creating designs, while the breeze kept inviting us outdoors. So by the end of the week we were ready to explore the Garden Island.
We got in our three Jeeps and hit the road, heading for some proper off-road action. There were lots of water splashes, gorgeous sceneries, picturesque waterfalls, plenty of mud, and even a punctured radiator — whoops!
The highlight of the whole trip was a hike from the Kalalau lookout across the ridge of the hilltop, with sloping drops on both sites that went on for hundreds and hundreds of meters. Risky stuff, but so rewarding to chase one of the most beautiful sunsets ever engulfed by all that greenery, and have to head back while the light slowly went out.
"Everything is going to be okay" is my *favorite* shot from this set. ?


As we plan a better transit system for the region, we need to understand a few simple facts. 1) Not everyone wants to live in the city. 2) Not everyone wants to live in the suburbs. 3) Not all of the jobs are in downtown. 4) Not all of the jobs are in the suburbs. What I'm trying to say is that we should have a transit system built for urban and suburban residents, and balancing priority as we invest in rapid transit routes.
In a better world we would have more reliable funding sources for transit so we wouldn't have to worry about prioritizing urban and suburban transit improvements. Hopefully someday it can be that way, but for now the Metropolitan Council's priorities are transitways (Blue Line and Green Line extensions, Orange Line, etc.) out to the suburbs and upgraded bus routes (A Line, C Line, etc.) on key arterial routes in the urban core and inner ring suburban area.
A view of Highway 36.
In 2014 the Metropolitan Council studied numerous Highway BRT routes to see the feasibility and benefits of implementing them.
However, most of these corridors don't have development abutting the highway, so getting to/from the station would be long and difficult. Almost all of the stations are assumed to be easily accessible for buses on/off the freeway using existing on/off ramps to reduce cost. There would potentially be no funding for modifying or building new access roads for buses so they can be closer to actual destinations and reduce walking time.
For example the Red Line at Cedar Grove Station, which originally got off Highway 77 and backtracked to the station adding a few minutes to the travel time, but was closer to the outlet mall and other land uses. Now the online station reduces travel time, but its a farther walk to the outlet mall and other land uses. Done correctly, but more expensively would be an access ramp only for buses to get easily on/off the highway but still being close to transfer with local buses and land uses.
Another example is the Green Line extension. One of the considered routes would have utilized abandoned railroad right-of-way now used as a rail-trail between Hopkins and Eden Prairie. It would be cheap, but the surrounding land uses are mostly low density single family homes and office parks. The current planned route between Hopkins and Eden Prairie, while somewhat windy and more expensive, goes through higher density residential and commercial areas.
For suburban transitways, we need to put more priority on routes serving actual destinations instead of the cheap option of building transit stops where its easiest and cheapest and requiring long walks.
A flowering bus stop at B'way and Penn, North Minneapolis.
Arterial bus rapid transit (ABRT), although operating in mixed traffic, allows upgraded transit in the urban areas to be rolled out quickly (assuming we have the funding), cheaply, and with little disruption.
Streetcars on the other hand are being used mostly as a development tool, not for upgrading transit. If it can be shown that a proposed streetcar will improve transit and not just be for development then I may support it. However, ABRT is the best option in the urban and inner ring suburban area to upgrade transit quickly and with little disruption.
Of course, the LRT and BRT routes have to get into the urban areas somehow. While the freeways have made divides in urban neighborhoods, we can take advantage of the space for transitways too. The Orange Line will have stations at Lake Street and 46th Street along I-35W, and with dense land use abutting the freeway and good local transit connections it should be easy to get between the station and final destination. In the central business district, its optimal that BRT has its own lanes (for example Marquette and 2nd in Downtown Minneapolis). For LRT in the downtowns we already have tracks in place, but there is very limited room for expanded service. Its optimal that we grade-separate most or all of our LRT routes in the downtowns to improve reliability and allow high capacity.
With all this in mind I developed a Metro BRT/LRT and Metro Arterial map that would best suit urban and suburban needs within our monetary limits.
The only routes that would not be part of Metro Transit's High Frequency Network are the Lime Line, the Bronze Line west of West Lake Station, and the Lapis Line south of Wilson Station.
Blue Line-Within Bloomington (or the so-called South Loop) there is no need for four stations, so the 28th Avenue and Bloomington Central stations would merge into one. This would involve a new platform halfway between the current stations so the park & ride and commercial and residential uses can still be served. Another preferred change is a new alignment to the Mall of America to decrease travel time (currently 4 minutes just to get between the Mall of America and 28th Avenue) and allow the Riverview Corridor (labeled the Red Line on the map) to go further west. The most likely location of the station would be in the overflow surface lot east of the Mall of America and improving pedestrian access between there and the mall.
Green Line-No changes from the existing route and official proposal for the extension.
Red Line/Cedar Avenue BRT (labeled Pink Line on map)-From Apple Valley the current service operates on the shoulder of Cedar Avenue/Highway 77 until some point in Eagan where buses are in the median of the freeway to access the online Cedar Grove Station. Buses then get off the freeway and use local streets to access Mall of America Transit Station. The northern extension would have buses getting back on Highway 77 and serving online and inline stations on Highway 77, Highway 62, and I-35W. In Downtown Minneapolis buses would operate on Marquette or 2nd Avenue (depending on direction) and then Washington Avenue. Then buses would get back on I-35W, and then Highway 36 where buses would most likely operate on the shoulder of the freeway (though its preferred that this route and the Orange Line would have a station as close as possible to the Quarry Center while still being able to quickly get on/off the freeway). In Maplewood buses would exit the freeway and utilize the dedicated ROW and local streets used by the Purple Line to get to Maplewood Mall. There has been an idea tossed around of BRT on Highway 36 all the way to Stillwater, but there is severe lacking of population density between Maplewood and Stillwater to make that worthwhile.
Orange Line-Besides in Downtown Minneapolis and a short segment in Lakeville buses use I-35W for the whole length. Between Kenrick Park & Ride and Queen Anne buses would use local streets. Between the Quarry Center and County Road D buses would use New Brighton Boulevard. North of there buses would use the shoulder of I-35W and terminate at 95th Avenue Park & Ride.
Riverview Corridor (labeled Red Line on map)-Besides a short segment on West 7th where trains would operate in mixed traffic, the route is dedicated right-of-way. Just as with the Purple Line we won't know the reliability of the mixed-traffic segment until its in operation, but again its preferred that the short mixed-traffic segment is modified for dedicated guideway. An extension from the Mall of America to Eden Prairie would operate along I-494 and American Boulevard. Various alignments could be considered including the I-494 median, American Boulevard median, and 77th Street median. The preferred alignment is the I-494 median for most of the route, but with some deviations to better serve areas such as the office towers at Normandale Lake. The main reason for choosing the I-494 median is to serve both land uses along American Boulevard (commercial and retail, but also a lot of car dealerships) and 77th Street (more residential and affordable housing).
Gold Line-No changes to the official proposal between St. Paul and Woodbury. Just as with the Purple Line its optimal buses would have a dedicated lane in Downtown St. Paul shared by other bus routes. East of St. Paul buses would operate on the shoulder of I-35E to Lakeville except getting off Cliff Road and sharing a station with the Cedar Avenue BRT, and Burnsville Center as there needs to be a way to get buses on/off the freeway quickly while still serving Burnsville Center as close as possible. Local streets would then be used to get to Queen Anne Station.
Silver Line-From the St. Paul Student Center buses would use the same route as the Campus Shuttle to Stadium Village, and from there operate along the Dinkytown Greenway and connect with Washington Avenue to Marquette and 2nd Avenues. Operating along the I-394 Corridor its preferred that buses have dedicated right-of-way for the majority of the route and directly serve residences and businesses rather than being in the median of the freeway and requiring a long walk to/from the station. That will require quite a few flyover bridges so buses have direct access to destinations while keeping travel time at a reasonable level. Going into Wayzata buses would operate in mixed traffic on Wayzata Boulevard.
Lime Line-This route would be far off in the future after the Blue Line extension is built and hopefully the Northstar Line is an all-day regional rail line instead of a peak travel only commuter rail. The main purpose of the Lime Line is a feeder service for the Blue Line, Lapis Line, and Northstar Line. It would be very easy to implement, but will require transit and pedestrian friendly areas to make it work. When the Blue Line extension is built it would be worth looking at a local bus bridge between Target North and Anoka, similar to the proposed bus bridge between Forest Lake and White Bear Lake connecting with the Purple Line/Rush Line Corridor.
Bronze Line-This route would utilize abandoned railroad right-of-way between Waconia and Hopkins (currently the Lake Minnetonka LRT Regional Trail) and then the Green Line Extension tracks (assuming they're built) to West Lake Station. Then trains would parallel the Midtown Greenway and the Minnesota Commercial Railway across the Mississippi River. Trains would then turn north and utilize a short segment of abandoned railroad right-of-way, then turn onto 27th Avenue, and finally turn on SE 4th Street and operate in mixed traffic to Stadium Village Station.
Lapis Line-This is a combination light rail/streetcar/subway all put into one. It would be the high capacity north-south transit spine through Minneapolis serving high density areas. Between Old Shakopee Road Station and Crosstown Commons Station trains would utilize existing railroad right-of-way except for a short segment between Civic Plaza and Oxboro stations where trains would operate in the middle of the street (possibly in mixed traffic) in order to serve South Bloomington Transit Center. North of the Crosstown Commons Station trains would go underground until Plymouth Avenue Station in Minneapolis. Trains would then operate along the I-94 Corridor until 69th Avenue Station. From there trains would operate along Brooklyn Boulevard/Elm Creek Boulevard to Maple Grove. Plans for the Blue Line Extension had a potential route to the Arbor Lakes Shopping District in Maple Grove, but apparently the city council didn't want it and we have the existing proposal. Considering how much traffic there is in Maple Grove and the continuing development of that area, it would be wise to take another look at light rail or some kind of upgraded transit there.
While the Silver Line/I-394 Corridor may also be a good light rail route, because destinations are on different sides of the freeway it would require a lot of flyover bridges to reach these destinations. BRT will also need flyover bridges, but can take advantage of existing roads as well. It would also be very difficult to build light rail on Wayzata Blvd., and buses would have the ability to serve Wayzata Park & Ride and Downtown Wayzata.
Instead of the Blue Line being extended further north to Anoka, the Lime Line BRT was chosen due to low population density and ease of routing buses into Downtown Anoka.
While this proposed system has BRT, those routes could be upgraded to LRT if demand warrants and there is the political and public will to do so.
The arterial system consists of only one streetcar route, operating between Uptown and Southdale, due to the increased job and population density in those areas. The rest of the routes are ABRT due to ease of building and implementation, less cost, and lower population density (in certain areas, not all areas). However an ABRT route could be upgraded to streetcar if demand warrants.
A Line-Besides the existing route there is consideration of extending it to Arden Hills when there is development at the former ammunition plant site.
B Line-The current proposal is for the route to serve between West Lake Station and Snelling Avenue Station. A western extension would route it on Minnetonka Boulevard and Louisiana Avenue to Louisiana Avenue Transit Center. An eastern extension would route it on Selby Avenue, through Downtown St. Paul, East 7th Street, Minnehaha Avenue, and terminate at the Greenway Avenue Station on the Gold Line.
C Line-No changes from the official proposal.
D Line-No changes from the official proposal except extending further north from Brooklyn Center Transit Center to Earle Brown Station to connect with the Lapis Line.
E Line-No changes from the official proposal except continuing north through Downtown Minneapolis, onto University Avenue, and terminating at Stadium Village Station.
F Line-The official proposal has the Nicollet Avenue BRT having a southern terminus at Nicollet Avenue & American Boulevard. Assuming the Lapis Line is built, the terminus would be cut back to Nicollet Avenue & 66th Street. Going north from Downtown Minneapolis the route follows the official proposal for ABRT on Central Avenue and University Avenue to Northtown Mall.
G Line-This route mostly follows the existing bus routes 87 and 63 on Raymond Avenue, Cleveland Avenue, and Grand Avenue. Through Downtown St. Paul the route continues east on East 7th Street, White Bear Avenue, and 7th Avenue terminating in North St. Paul.
H Line-Beginning at Highway 77 & 66th Street connecting with the Red Line/Cedar Avenue BRT, this route would operate on Bloomington Avenue and Cedar Avenue through South Minneapolis. Through Downtown Minneapolis the route would be on West Broadway to Robbinsdale Transit Center.
J Line-This route follows the existing Route 515 between Southdale and Highway 77 & 66th Street.
K Line-No changes from the official proposal for ABRT on Robert Street. Through Downtown St. Paul the route would be on Rice Street and terminate at Little Canada Transit Center.
L Line-Starting at 21st Street Station (Kenwood) this route travels on Franklin Avenue (existing Route 2) to West Bank, and then follows the existing Route 3 across the river to East Bank, Como Avenue and Energy Park Drive, and through Downtown St. Paul. Then buses mostly follow the existing Route 68 across the river on Robert Street, Cesar Chavez Drive, Oakdale Avenue, Thompson Avenue, 12th Avenue, Southview Boulevard, and terminates at Cahill Plaza in Inver Grove Heights.
M Line-This route mainly follows the existing Route 10 Spring Lake Park branch.
O Line-This route follows the existing Route 46 for its entire length between Opus in Minnetonka and West 7th Street in St. Paul. The only potential difference is routing through the Ford Site and on the Ford Spur for a short length.
P Line-This route would be on Como Avenue and Maryland Avenue in the northern part of St. Paul.
Q Line-From the southwest the route would mostly be on Smith Avenue. Going through Downtown St. Paul the route would be on 3rd Street, just to the north of the Gold Line, and then turning south and terminating at Lower Afton Park & Ride (one of the proposed stations on the Red Rock Corridor).
R Line-This route follows most of the existing Route 61 on Larpenteur Avenue, and then would be on Frost Avenue and terminate at White Bear Avenue & Larpenteur Avenue.
S1-The only streetcar line (not counting Riverview's short mixed-traffic segment) on the arterial network. The route would mostly be on France Avenue except to serve Southdale Transit Center either by a few sharp turns or the more expensive but fluid option of cut-and-cover under Southdale's surface lots. Streetcars would then merge with the Green Line and Bronze Line at West Lake Station. Siding tracks would be built in Uptown so streetcars are out of the way for the Bronze Line.
If the maps and/or descriptions of the routes look confusing feel free to ask any questions. I'm definitely not an expert on map making and if such a transit system ever comes into existence I'm sure the professionals can make a detailed but clean looking transit system map.
You may be looking at the maps and noticing numerous regional rail stations where there currently are none. That is another topic, another map, and another laundry list of routes for a different day.
I have a fantasy wish for a highway BRT between the Fridley train station, Brookdale area, Robbinsdale, West End, Wooddale LRT Station (36th), Grandview (50th), International Blvd, and Normandale Lakes.
Hub and Spoke transit is great but cross metro has great value too. I thought a highway BRT from Normandale Lakes up TH 100 to Northstar's Fridley Station would add value to the Northstar line by giving it a higher speed route via transfer to the 494 jobs concentration.
A couple years ago the suburban opt-outs tried an express service between Shakopee and Maple Grove called Route 494. The problem with that was most of the destinations were park & rides, and transfers were only with light frequency local routes. It failed miserably, but I do think it could work if it served actual destinations in addition to park & rides. Definitely wouldn't be express, but it would have a much better chance at being successful. However, the hub-and-spoke rapid transit routes should be established first so there are good connections to crosstown routes.
Suburban park-and-ride-to-park-and-ride seems doomed. Suburban transit-station-to-transit-station seems a better option for success.
There are far more dense employment nodes along 169 or 100 than 494.
Right. And169 is getting LRT for a stretch between Hopkins and Eden Prairie and there is a proposed BRT from Shakopee down 169 into Downtown Minneapolis.
Knowing Bloomington engineers and knowing how congested 98th street is, putting streetcars down the middle, even in mixed traffic, is not going to happen. A better idea is to stay on the existing rail line and rebuild the transit station in the northwest corner of the I-35W interchange where there's a low value self storage building and is adjacent to the tracks.
The main gap I see is there's nothing going to the major regional amenities (Valleyfair, Canterbury Park), and job centers (Amazon, Shutterfly, Seagate, more surely on the way) of Shakopee. But of course that's not MTC territory. I don't know how many people going to Valleyfair would ride a bus, but it's notable that they only come close to using all of their parking on a couple of hot summer weekends and fall weekends during the haunt, so they might be amenable to leasing some as a ready-made park and ride.
Whether streetcar or dedicated right-of-way in the middle of the street, while its not optimal its not a new concept. If trains are every 20 minutes in both directions at most then traffic disruption won't be constant. If we moved the transit center to the north then local east-west buses would need to divert off the main route, and I prefer not adding more time to an already slow service.
As for Shakopee, there is an existing rail line that goes through some of the areas you mentioned, and that could be used for a commuter rail line with stations by Valley Fair and Amazon. I'm currently making a post on regional and intercity rail routes in the Twin Cities and that will go into more detail.
Even your "fantasy" list largely serves un-walkable, car-dependent parts of the metro with the most expensive forms of transit- LRT and BRT. As someone who desperately wants better transit service in Minneapolis, with densities that actually support transit along with a generally connected urban form, I fear the ABRT routes are not going to be that great because those buses remain stuck in traffic.
Obviously, there is a big push to increase population density in Minneapolis with supporters claiming it will result in better transit service. Is that actually the case because Metro Transit seems more interested in luring suburban riders rather than improving the speed, frequency, and quality regular bus service in the City. If they scrapped the Bottineau LRT line, what could be done in Minneapolis for $1.5 billion, for example?
Keep in mind all the LRT routes do serve urban, transit friendly and pedestrian friendly areas in addition to suburban areas. Plus transitways can help push suburbs to develop pedestrian and transit friendly areas (an example being South Loop in Bloomington along the Blue Line), but it will be interesting when the Blue and Green Line extensions are finally built how it will affect pedestrian/bike friendliness along the suburban segments.
As for ABRT being in mixed traffic, traffic signals could be modified to give priority to ABRT. On the A Line at certain intersections buses can request a longer green or a shorter wait for a green, but I don't know how well it works. Shoulder lanes for buses on certain segments could be implemented as well.
With my proposed system it wouldn't be necessary to grade-separate the current light rail lines in the downtowns, however that doesn't mean it shouldn't be pursued or at least studied. The Lapis Line would be underground between South Minneapolis and North Minneapolis.
Increased population density could certainly help bring transit improvements and convince people that better transit is a need, not a want. But a bigger obstacle is anti-transit legislators who think transit is a luxury and it shouldn't be invested in because it doesn't make money. We need legislators who have an open mind to transit and understand not everyone wants or can drive, the Twin Cities is a major metropolitan area (this isn't Grand Forks or Omaha) that needs a modern transit system, and roads aren't printing money for us either.

Pál Gyula (Győr, 1881. június 27. – Koppenhága, 1946. szeptember 6.) magyar–dán matematikus, egyetemi oktató.

Életpályája
Perl Gyula néven született Győrben, a Pál családnevet 1909-ben vette fel. A győri bencés gimnáziumban tanult, akárcsak a nála idősebb Riesz Frigyes matematikus, akivel ott összebarátkozott. Neve többször megjelent a KöMaL feladatmegoldói között. 1900-ban érettségizett, az egyetemet pedig 1906-ban végezte el. Budapest mellett Göttingenben, Münchenben és Párizsban is tanult. 1910-től a székelyudvarhelyi főreáliskolában tanított, majd 1912-ben megpályázott egy budapesti tanári állast, amelyet azonban nem kapott meg, de állami támogatással tovább tanulhatott német és francia egyetemeken. 1914-ben a pozsonyi főreáliskolai állást pályázta meg, de nem foglalhatta el a háború kitörése miatt. Ónként vonult be a hadseregbe, és helytállásáért kitüntették. Meghívásra 1919-ben Dániába utazott, ahol családot alapított, letelepedett, és csak egyetlen egyszer, 1934-ben látogatott haza, Magyarországra.

1925-ben a koppenhágai műszaki egyetemen Harald Bohr asszisztense, egy év múlva ugyanott főállású lektor (adjunktus). 1928-tól már dán állampolgár. A német megszállás alatt részt vett az ellenállásban, hamis iratokkal igazolta "árja" voltát. Családja elpusztult a háborúban, ő 1946-ban hunyt el.

Munkássága
Fő kutatási területe a topológia, azon belül pedig a Jordan-görbék.
1916-ban doktorált Riesz Frigyesnél a kolozsvári egyetemen, miután 1912 és 1915 között kilenc tudományos cikke jelent meg rangos folyóiratokban. Dániában való letelepedése után Julius Pal, illetve Julius F. Pal néven publikált.

National Institute on Drug Abuse Denies Marijuana Is Less Toxic Than Alcohol
Yesterday the National Institute on Drug Abuse released a statement denying that marijuana is less toxic than alcohol. How a federal agency can look at all the science and facts and make such a claim is beyond me, and I'm sure TWB readers are pretty blown away by the blatant disregard for the facts too.
"Claiming that marijuana is less toxic than alcohol cannot be substantiated since each possess their own unique set of risks and consequences for a given individual," According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse.
The fine people at Politifact.Com researched the claim by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, and concluded the following:
Deaths or even trips to the hospital are much more likely due to alcohol;
Scientists could not find any documented deaths from smoking marijuana;
A study found the safety ratio for marijuana (the number of doses to cause death) is much greater than compared to alcohol. Put another way, marijuana is 100 times less toxic than alcohol.
"Overall, we rate this claim Mostly True."
PolitiFact cited a study by Robert Gable, an emeritus professor of psychology at Claremont Graduate University, which showed that "marijuana is about 100 times safer than alcohol...."
"Our federal government has been exaggerating the harms of marijuana for decades, but at this point it has gone off the deep end," Tvert told The Huffington Post. "NIDA's statement that marijuana can be just as toxic as alcohol would be on par with the FDA announcing sushi is as fattening as fried chicken."
"This is gross negligence on the agency's part and should be addressed immediately by the White House," Tvert continued. "It is one thing for our federal officials to convey their opposition to marijuana policy reform. It is an entirely different and more disturbing situation when they are conveying opposition to scientific evidence."
Whenever I think that the federal government can't get any worse with their approach to marijuana policy and science, things like this pop up and my opinion of the federal government sinks even lower. How do TWB readers feel about these statements? I look forward to reading your comments.

A prospective cohort study of the conservative management of focal cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2.
McMahon, Gabriela; Griffin, Sinead; Curley, Jennifer; Hartel, Paul; Kilgallen, Clive; Kondaveeti, Nirmala; Sligo University Hospital (European Society of Gynaecology, 2020)
Background and Purpose: Traditionally, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 (CIN 2) is managed by the removal of affect-ed tissue in a procedure known as a large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ). In our unit, pathology reports on LLETZ specimens done for a diagnosis of CIN 2 often are reported as CIN 1 or a normal result. So we wondered – are we over-managing CIN 2? Methods: This study was designed to assess the acceptability and outcomes of the conservative management of focal CIN 2. We wanted to establish if monitoring of the disease is sufficient in selected women. In this prospective cohort, women were selected for inclusion in the study by having a histological diagnosis of focal CIN 2 from a cervical biopsy and after discussion at the colposcopy multi-disciplinary team meeting. After explanation of CIN 2 and its future impli-cations, women were informed of the risks and benefits of conservative management versus LLETZ. Women who opted for conservative management were seen in the colposcopy clinic for colposcopy examination, cervical biopsy ± cervical smear and HPV testing at six monthly intervals for two years.Results: Over the two-year follow-up period, 20/31 women (64.5%) had regression of disease, 7/31 women (22.6%) had persistence of CIN 2 and 4/31 women (12.9%) had progression of disease to CIN 3. There were no reported cases of cervical carcinoma in situ or invasive cervical carcinoma. During the follow-up period, patients were offered treatment if there was progression to CIN 3 or worse, persistence of CIN 2 or if they wished to undergo treatment at any stage.Conclusions: Conservative management of CIN 2 may be considered in women who are under the age of 30 with focal CIN 2. However, larger studies should be carried out to define the safety or acceptability of changing this practice.

Living with relapsed myeloma: Symptoms and self-care strategies.
Cormican, Orlaith; Dowling, Maura (2018-04-01)
Aims and Objectives To explore which symptoms relapsed myeloma patients experience and what self‐care strategies are used. Methods This was a qualitative study utilising focus group interviews (n = 4) with relapsed myeloma patients (n = 15) and carers (n = 9). The focus groups were analysed and guided by thematic analysis. Results Three major themes with subthemes were identified following analysis of the interview data: "difficult symptoms; "self‐care" and "feeling vulnerable." These findings indicate the challenges relapsed myeloma patients experience with ongoing symptoms and highlight the importance of continuity of care. Conclusions Symptom management for myeloma patients remains complex due to the array of treatments given. These patients require holistic care and thorough regular assessments to help them cope with the adverse effects on their physical and psychological health. For patients with a long‐term diagnosis of myeloma, self‐management workshops and regular education sessions may be of benefit.

Targeted Anti-D, The First Irish Perspective
McCormick, C.A; Mulvany, L; De Tavernier, M.C (Irish Medical Journal, 2019-04)
The use of anti-D to prevent haemolytic disease of the new-born can be regarded as one of the greatest success stories of modern medicine. Rhesus antibodies cause significant harm to rhesus positive foetuses in utero including anaemia, jaundice, hydrops fetalis and stillbirth. Deaths due to haemolytic disease of the new born have fallen dramatically. In the UK 1 in 2180 babies in 1953 died due to Rhesus haemolytic disease. 37 years later, in 1990, this figure had dropped to 1 in 62,500 1. Recent initiatives including the routine administration of anti-D at 28-32 weeks gestation have further reduced the incidence of sensitisation2.
Can Early Changes in Vital signs Predict Duration of Antibiotic Therapy in Suspected Neonatal Sepsis?
McGovern, M; Morrissey, P; Ryan, E (Irish Medical Journal, 2019-04)
Suspected sepsis remains a leading causes of Neonatal Intensive Care Unit admission, with infants often receiving 48-72 hours of empirical antibiotic therapy. Early in treatment it is difficult to predict infants who will require prolonged antibiotic therapy. Our aim was to assess if vital sign measurements in the initial period of treatment can predict those neonates requiring prolonged antibiotic therapy in term and late-preterm infants.

A Case of Paget-Schroetter Syndrome in a Young Male After Lifting Weights
Umana, E.; Elsherif, M.; Binchy, J. (Irish Medical Journal, 2019-02)
Paget-Schroetter Syndrome (PSS) or effort thrombosis of the axillary-subclavian venous axis is a rare disease affecting healthy young adults which requires a high index of suspicion to diagnose. Management often requires not only anticoagulation but also thrombolysis with first rib resection to prevent recurrence and complications. We present a case of a 31-year-old male who presented to our emergency department with pain and swelling of his left upper limb. He was diagnosed with PSS and underwent; anticoagulation, catheter directed thrombolysis and planned for first rib resection.
Meconium Ileus in Two Irish Newborns: The Presenting Feature of Cystic Fibrosis
Smith, A.; Ryan, E; O'Keeffe, D; O'Donovan, D. (Irish Medical Journal, 2019-03)
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is the most common genetically inherited disease in Ireland1. Approximately 1/ 2,300 infants per year are born with CF in Ireland2. Newborn bloodspot screening (NBS) screening for CF was introduced to Ireland in 20113. NBS screening for CF is associated with improved lung function, nutritional status and increased survival into early adulthood4. Therefore early recognition and management of this chronic condition is vital to ensuring optimal patient management.
Kicking off a Retropharyngeal Abscess
Rana, A; Heffernen, L; Binchy, J (Irish Medical Journal, 2019-03)
Retropharyngeal abscesses (RPA) are deep neck space infections that can pose an immediate life-threatening emergency, such as airway obstruction. [1] The potential space can become infected by bacteria spreading from a contiguous area [2] or direct inoculation from penetrating trauma. [3] Infection is often polymicrobial (most commonly group A beta-hemolytic streptococci). [4

Attitudes and Knowledge of Healthcare Professionals Regarding Organ Donation. A Survey of the Saolta University Health Care Group.
Umana, E; Grant, O; Curran, E; May, P; Mohamed, A; O'Donnell, J; University Hospital Galway (Irish Medical Journal, 2018-11)
Organ donation saves lives and healthcare professionals (HCPs) play a vital role in that process. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to assess the attitudes and level of knowledge of HCPs regarding organ donation. An online anonymous self-administered questionnaire containing 40 questions on organ donation using google forms was created. The survey was distributed to HCPs working in the Saolta University Health Care Group. A hundred and thirty-nine responses were received giving a response rate of 11.8%. HCPs willingness to donate their organs was at 93% compared to 97% willing to receive a transplant. More HCPs understood or had knowledge of the term donation after brain death (64%) than donation after circulatory death (49%). HCPs working in intensive care knew more about the management of brain dead donors than other specialties (p<0.0001). Over 60% of HCPs when asked either disagreed or strongly disagreed with the adequacy of training in organ donation and transplant. Overall, HCPs surveyed had positive attitudes towards organ donation but there was a lack of knowledge particularly among non-intensive care professionals. This study highlights the need to increase awareness along with implementation of educational programmes among HCPs regarding organ donation and transplant.
The Experience of the Management of Eating Disorders in a Pop-up Eating Disorder Unit
McHugh, CM; Harron, M; Kilcullen, A; O'Connor, P; Burns, N; Toolan, A; O'Mahony, E (Irish Medical Journal, 2018-09)
Anorexia nervosa affects 0.5% of the population (90% female) with the highest mortality of any psychiatric illness, usually suicide, or cardiovascular or neurological sequelae of either malnutrition or refeeding syndrome. The latter two conditions occur in the inpatient setting, carry a high mortality and are thoroughly avoidable with careful informed clinical management.

Egypt Embassy in Ghana: Address & Contact Details
PGadmin August 4, 2021 Embassies In Ghana No Comments
An embassy is the diplomatic representation of a country in another country. It is important for a country to have embassies in different countries to help maintain bilateral relations. If you are reading this then my guess is you are in Ghana and you need information about the Egypt Embassy in Ghana.
People need such information for several reasons. Most times it is to understand the visa application processes for the country in question. It could also be to find out firsthand about the country's culture and view its artifacts. Before going ahead with this article, let's discuss a little about Egypt.
Egypt lies in the Northern part of Africa. It is at the intersection between Africa and the Middle East. The country has a very eventful history as one of the oldest nations to exist. It dates back to the sixth millennia BCE. It is considered by almost every school of thought as the cradle of modern civilization. We can trace the earliest development of writing, urbanization, agriculture, central government, and organized religion.
Egypt is officially referred to as the Arab Republic of Egypt. The country's official religion is Islam and the lingua franca is Arabic. Egypt is the third most populous country in Africa after Nigeria and Ethiopia. It is also the most populous country in North Africa and the Arab World. Egypt is a transcontinental country which is a major force in North Africa and the Middle East.
The country has the largest economy in North Africa and one of the largest in the Middle East. Egypt has a very fast growing economy which is projected to be one of the largest in the world in the 21st century. The country welcomes immigrants from different classes.
These reasons are enough evidence to prove that so many people want to visit the country from different parts of the world. If you are in Ghana and are in search of information regarding Egypt's embassy in Ghana then you are reading the right article.
The Egypt Embassy in Ghana
Embassies perform several functions on behalf of the home country in the host country. The Egyptian embassy in Ghana is no different. It performs several functions which include ensuring that the relationship between Egypt and Ghana is cordial. It also promotes the interests of Egypt in Ghana while being a facilitator of Egyptian support to Ghana.
The Egyptian Embassy also carries out visa interviews and approvals on behalf of Egypt. The embassy also ensures that Egyptians in Ghana are secure and obey the Ghanaian constitution that applies to them.

The main focus of this dissertation is the application of importance sampling (IS) to calculate the probabilities associated with rare events in nonlinear, large-dimensional lightwave systems that are driven by noise, including models for fiber-based optical communication system and mode-locked lasers. Throughout the last decade, IS has emerged as a valuable tool for improving the efficiency of simulating rare events in such systems. In particular, it has shown great success in simulating various sources of transmission impairments found in optical communication systems, with examples ranging from large polarization fluctuations resulting from randomly varying fiber birefringence to large pulse-width fluctuations resulting from imperfections in the optical fiber. In many cases, the application of IS is guided by a low-dimensional reduction of the system dynamics. Combining the low-dimensional reduction with Monte Carlo simulations of the original system has been shown to be an extremely effective scheme for computing, for example, the probability with which a pulse deviates significantly from its initial form due to a random forcing. In the context of nonlinear optics, this might represent a transmission error where the propagation model is the nonlinear Schr¨odinger equation (NLSE) with additive or multiplicative noise.
A shortcoming of this method is that the efficiency of the IS technique depends strongly on the accuracy of the low-dimensional reduction used to guide the simulations. These low-dimensional reductions are often derived from a formal perturbation theory, referred to as soliton perturbation theory (SPT) for the case of soliton propagation under the forced NLSE. As demonstrated here, such reduction methodsare often inadequate in their description of the pulse's dynamics. In particular, the interaction between a propagating pulse and dispersive radiation leads to a radiation-induced drift in a pulse's phase, which is largely unaccounted for in the reduced systems currently in use.
The first part of this dissertation is devoted to understanding the interaction between a pulse and dispersive radiation, leading to the derivation of an improved reduced system based on a variational approach. Once this system is derived and verified numerically, it serves as the basis for an improved IS method that incorporates the dynamics of the radiation, which is subsequently extended to more realistic propagation models. Of particular interest is the case of the NLSE with a periodic modulation of the dispersion constant, referred to as dispersion management (DM), and a related model where this modulation is averaged to give an autonomous, nonlocal equation. Following the nomenclature commonly use in literature, the former (nonautonomous) equation will be referred to as the NLSE+DM and the latter (autonomous) equation as the DMNLSE. A complicating aspect of these more realistic models is that, unlike the NLSE, exact solutions only exist as numerical objects rather than as closed-form solutions, which introduces an addition source of error in the derivation of a reduced system for the pulse dynamics.
In the second part of this dissertation, the IS method is extended to the calculation of phase-slip probabilities in mode-locked lasers (MLL). Realistic models for pulse propagation in MLL include the dissipative effects of gain and loss, in addition to nonlocal saturation effects. As a result most of the reduced systems derived for pulse dynamics are extremely complicated, which diminishes their applicability as guides for IS simulations. Therefore, a MLL operating in the soliton propagation regime is considered, where the effects of gain, loss and saturation are treated perturbatively. A simple reduced system for the pulse dynamics is derived for this MLL model, allowing the IS technique to be effectively applied.
