Isadora S Rangel, Florida Today Published 9:07 p.m. ET Feb. 8, 2019
There's a double standard going on when it comes to freedom of expression and the press.
Conservatives are quick to rally behind the president's right to speak his mind via tweets. Liberals march to the defense of the fourth estate when the president attacks us as the "enemy of the people."
When it comes to giving the "other side" a platform, we often belittle them or deny them space. It's happening on school campuses with "safe zones," on social media and news outlets dedicated to serving only one side of the political spectrum.
I bring this up in light of a column FLORIDA TODAY ran last week titled, "Why I proudly wear my Make American Great Again hat." Some of the comments on social media admonished FLORIDA TODAY for providing a platform for Ryan Moore to explain why he supports President Trump, opposes illegal immigration and why he believes white men suffer discrimination in America.
More opinion: Why I proudly wear my Make America Great Again hat
Another view: I'm a black woman and you can't disguise the hatred in 'Make America Great Again'
Some accused us of normalizing untruthful and hateful rhetoric and of being insensitive to what the MAGA hat means to minority communities, especially during Black History Month.

I understand the reaction the hat elicits in people because of Trump's attacks on Mexicans, Muslims and women. But as journalists, we cannot defend the First Amendment and then turn around and censor the opinion of a segment of society. We try to provide a countering view when possible. That's why I asked activist Tess Martin to write a rebuttal to Moore's piece from the point of view of a black woman.
This belief that certain opinions should be banned from the media is alarming. As an immigrant, I believe the U.S. has some of the best journalism in the world and a tradition — albeit one that's in peril — of civil discourse. Echo chambers where we only hear opinions similar to ours are very tempting and comforting. I too have fallen prey to that.
Florida Democrats can't escape that Trump supporters are their neighbors and family members. Telling people their opinions are not welcomed only makes them more entrenched. Asking and challenging them is what starts the dialogue that might lead to someone changing their mind.
More: I loved Facebook; after 12 years of daily use, here's why I'm unfriending it for good
Last year's Democratic wins in suburban House districts that previously voted for Republicans proves that many voters want a less divisive and moderate approach to governing. Here's how Democrats won't beat Trump in 2020: by branding his supporters as stupid in a newspaper op-ed column.
I personally get a kick out of running columns that I disagree with because it reminds me of one of the missions of our opinion page: to be thought provoking and start dialogues.
Moore's column first appeared in The Tennessean, part of the USA TODAY Network, as a reaction to a cartoon that assigned racist intent to MAGA hats. Director of Opinion David Plazas also wrote a column defending his decision to publish Moore's work. Plazas and virtually every journalist in the country have heard from Trump supporters who feel they are misrepresented, and underrepresented, in mainstream media.

In his column, Plazas posed a question: would he run a column that defends genocide or racial violence? No, because such views are abhorrent, which wasn't the case with Moore.
We do use judgment in choosing which guest columns to run based on the quality and originality of the writing, whether the author is accurate and has expertise on the subject, newsworthiness of the topic and whether we feel it's relevant. A lot of these parameters are subjective and based on our experience in the business — it's called "news judgement" — and journalists never stop learning how to do it better.
There's a difference between hating someone's opinion and denying them a voice. Now more than ever we need to understand that distinction.

The musicians were only two or three years older than me, but seemed like grown men. Girls fawned over them. I was mesmerized by it all–the music, the swagger, the adulation. It had never occurred to me that someone close to my age in my hometown could do what they were doing.
The music was new to me too. My mom's radio at home was tuned to the Bobbys (Darin, Rydell, Vee), Brenda Lee, Lawrence Welk, Paul Anka, Connie Francis, Pat Boone, Percy Faith and so on. I didn't know music could be so visceral until I heard the Vandals play live on a summer night.
A few months later, during the winter, I had a birthday and officially became a teenager. As I was riding the bus from school, I noticed groups of girls excitedly huddled around transistor radios every time certain songs were played.
Intrigued, I went home, spun the dial and found the station. The group was called the Beatles and the sound was addictive. "I Want To Hold Your Hand" and "She Loves You," over and over. Only one station in Columbus played the Beatles–WCOL-AM–and it was all I listened to from then on.
Along with my parents and younger brothers, I watched the group on The Ed Sullivan Show in February 1964. My dad was dismissive, my mom amused and my brothers oblivious. I was hooked.
At school, girls idolized the Beatles, boys emulated them. We grew our hair long and wore mod-inspired clothes. Guitars were purchased and bands were formed.
We anxiously awaited each new song, each new album. The music of the Beatles and the bands that followed joyfully propelled us through our impressionable early-teenage years.
So, to find myself standing alone, fifty years later, in the boyhood bedrooms of John Lennon and Paul McCartney was surreal.
I arrived in Liverpool, not across the Mersey by ferry, but under it by train.
My hotel was on the Albert Dock, a complex of huge warehouses, dating to 1846. Once, they stored brandy, cotton, tea, silk, tobacco, ivory and sugar. During World War II, the dock was heavily damaged by German bombing. Now it is a convention center and tourist attraction with riverside hotels, restaurants and museums.
Before the Blitz and Beatlemania, the prominent port city of Liverpool had already seen hundreds of years of turbulent history.
During the 1700s, the city dominated the triangular slave-trade system, first shipping English goods to Africa, then transporting enslaved Africans to the Americas, and finally bringing sugar, coffee, cocoa, cotton and tobacco back to Liverpool for manufacturing. Liverpool was the capital of the transatlantic slave trade.
Ultimately, Liverpool merchants were responsible for transporting nearly 1.5 million slaves from Africa, more than 10 percent of the total. Their heinous economic engine operated for nearly a hundred years.
On the Albert Dock I toured the International Slavery Museum, which presents a history of the "institution," both past and, unfortunately, present. The museum opened in 2007, marking the bicentennial of the UK's Slave Trade Act of 1807. The law abolished the slave trade in the UK–but not slave ownership.
The museum's exhibits portray the experience of being a slave in the Americas, share how Europe and America benefited from the trade, and address the legacies of slavery.
Penny Lane, the road in Liverpool made famous by the Beatles, is named after James Penny. He was the captain of a slave ship.
During the American Civil War, England was officially neutral. However, Liverpool merchants were so deeply dependent upon raw materials from America, they quietly sided with the Confederacy.
Many warships were built in secret on the River Mersey, as Liverpool became the unofficial home of the Confederate fleet. President Lincoln had an extensive spy network in Liverpool reporting to him on the construction and provisioning of ships destined for the South.
At the outbreak of the war, the Union blockaded Southern ports to shut down trade. Forty-two blockade runners, built on the River Mersey and operated by British private interests, worked at slipping munitions and supplies past the Union fleet.
The Alabama, a Confederate warship, was built on the River Mersey in 1862 and crewed mainly by Liverpudlians. The Liverpool-built Shenandoah continued to sink Union ships for several months after the war was officially over, unaware of its end. Finally, after sailing "home," the captain of the Shenandoah walked up the steps of Liverpool's town hall and surrendered his Confederate ship to an English mayor.
I am the starstruck, eternal romantic.
I am the gateway to the Atlantic.
In 902, Vikings settled in Merseyside. Liuerpul, meaning "muddy pool," was established as a town in 1207 by King John. After the United State declared its independence, Liverpool was the site of the new nation's first embassy in 1790. The original consulate still stands on Paradise Street.
Liverpool's ties to North America were fostered through emigration. The city was home to both the Cunard and White Star cruise lines. Cunard, founded in 1840, was the first company to offer regular transatlantic crossings. Between 1830 and 1930, Liverpool shipped nine million people, mostly Irish, to America.
As one tour guide said, "We have always looked outward toward Ireland and America, never inland toward England," which explains Liverpool's fascination with American music.
During the early 1900s, the two firms competed to see which could cross the Atlantic in the shortest time and with the most style.
Titanic famously sank after hitting an iceberg on her maiden voyage in 1912. Cunard's Carpathia helped rescue Titanic's survivors. Many Liverpudlians lost their lives on Titanic, including the engine-room crew and members of the orchestra. Carpathia was later sunk by a German U-boat.
In 1915, a U-boat also sank Cunard's Lusitania, claiming 1,198 lives, 128 of them American civilians. The attack shocked the United States and strengthened support for a war with Germany.
Today, Liverpool's larger metropolitan area has a population of over two million. The city spreads from the harbor like a fan. A few scars from World War II are still visible, including the ruined Church of Saint Luke, a victim of the Blitz of 1941.
Adolph Hitler may once have lived in Liverpool.
The legend goes like this: Hitler's half-brother, Alois Hitler, and his Irish wife, Bridget, lived in the Toxteth neighborhood of the city. In 1912, a 23-year-old Hitler came to visit in order to escape the draft at home. Six months later he returned to Austria.
In the early 1940s, Bridget wrote about Hitler's visit in her memoir. However, no other evidence exists to substantiate the rumor. Some historians believe Bridget fabricated the story to capitalize on her half-brother-in-law's fame.
In 1940 and 1941, Germany heavily bombed the UK, targeting large industrial towns and civilian centers. During the Blitz, Liverpool was attacked more than any other city, except London. The reason: its huge port, which brought needed food, fuel, weapons and, eventually, American troops, into the country.
Hitler directed his bombers to annihilate Liverpool. Ironically, in January 1942, they leveled the house where he may once have lived.
Liverpool's role as a port city has attracted a diverse population, drawn from several cultures, particularly Irish and Welsh. The city is home to the oldest African community in England and the oldest Chinese community in Europe.
Although natives of Liverpool are called Liverpudlians, colloquially they are known as Scousers. Scouse is a corruption of the Scandinavian word for stew, an inexpensive meal for sailors and migrants in the 1800s. Now, Scouse is associated with Liverpudlian culture and dialect.
Scouse is practically its own language with words like clobber (clothes), scran (food) and ozzy (hospital).
Scousers are known for being independent, sarcastic and quick-witted, as the Beatles often demonstrated during their interviews with the media.
Scousers say they've developed their biting sense of humor to cope with the hardships they've experienced in their lives, caused by war and poverty.
Q. Why does the River Mersey run through Liverpool?
A. Because it doesn't want to get mugged.
Enough with museums. Time for music. I walked to Mathew Street, home of the Cavern Club.
How is it possible that a damp, dingy, smoky hole-in-the-wall jazz club in a back alley of an economically depressed, bombed-out city would become the proving ground for a musical sound that would change the world?
The original Cavern Club, a vaulted cellar in a fruit warehouse, opened on Mathew Street in 1957. Mathew Street is cobbled and dark, and in those days was cluttered with crates of produce. In World War II, the cellar was used as an air-raid shelter.
The Cavern was intended to be Liverpool's beachhead for jazz and, while it may not have been the birthplace of rock 'n' roll, it was certainly, for a moment in time, the center of the musical universe.
The club closed in 1973 to make way for the Liverpool subway. The building above it was leveled and the cellar filled with refuse. Then, someone realized they had buried the treasure. The club was excavated and rebuilt using the original plans and the original bricks. It reopened in 1984.
Now, Mathew Street is crowded with revelers. Tourists pose for photos next to a statue of John Lennon. Street musicians play Beatles' songs.
Then, I found it–the red neon of the Cavern Club. In a second I was down the stairs, into the packed cellar and back in the 1960s. Vaulted ceilings, stone walls and a tiny stage.
Musicians play live all day. T-shirts are sold. And beer. (The original Cavern did not sell alcohol.) The club was crowded with people like me wanting to touch history.
In those days, the Cavern audience were office workers and shop girls on their lunch hour. Secretaries, messenger boys and hairdressers. Most were in their late teens and early twenties, dressed for work. The club served sandwiches, soup and tea.
From 1961 to 1963 the Beatles played the club 292 times. Their last concert was a month before recording "She Loves You" and six months before visiting the United States. Since then, every artist you can name, from the Stones to Adele, has played the Cavern.
Despite being rebuilt for tourists, the Cavern Club was, for me, both nostalgia and nirvana. The low arched ceiling, the grimy walls, the loud music. Everyone enjoying the trip in the time machine.
Afterward, I stopped down the street at the Grapes. In the '60s, the Grapes was the only pub on Mathew Street.
The Beatles used to enjoy a pint there before or after their performances at the Cavern. Inside is a large photo of the pre-Ringo Beatles, relaxing with cigarettes and ale in their favorite booth.
Nearly everyone in Memphis has a personal Elvis story. They waited on him, babysat for him, delivered a car to him. Likewise, Philip Hughes, my Scouser tour guide in Liverpool, had several Beatles' connections, having known or spoken with several of their family and friends.
Scenes from the miniseries Peaky Blinders are shot in the derelict houses on Powis Street, one of Toxteth's Welsh Streets, and the next street over from the house where Ringo Starr was born.
The area, including Ringo's home, was slated for demolition but those plans are now being reconsidered.
The only way to see the insides of Lennon and McCartney's boyhood homes is through the National Trust. Small guided tours, just fifteen people at a time so as not to bother the neighbors. No photos inside.
Not sure what I expected, but the remarkable thing about these two houses is how unremarkable they are. Both are plain, run-of-the-mill suburban homes. Lennon's is in the nicer of the neighborhoods, a leafy suburb with a median. The house is stuccoed and decorated with art-nouveau windows. The rooms are small.
As only a few updates were made since Lennon's Aunt Mimi moved out, most of the original fixtures are still in place. The house has been redecorated in the style of the 1950s and '60s. Even some of Mimi's furniture is in the living room.
In front was the small enclosed porch where Lennon and McCartney practiced Everly Brothers' harmonies.
Throughout the house are Lennon's drawings and school-report cards. The backyard is just two lots away from Strawberry Field.
And upstairs was Lennon's small bedroom, plastered with period posters of Elvis and Brigitte Bardot. It's where he quietly practiced his guitar so as not to disturb the veterinary students who lodged at the house. And where "Please Please Me" was written.
Oddly, the guide at the Lennon house looked very much like a tall Ringo Starr. He said the lyric, "I call your name but you're not there," was written after Lennon's mom, Julia, was killed by a car as she crossed the street in front of the house.
McCartney's blue-collar home was a row house, cozy, dowdy and even plainer than Lennon's. McCartney's brother, Mike, advised on the restoration.
Many of the photos he took of the early Beatles practicing in the living room are on display. The house could have served as a model for Wallace and Gromit's home.
The tiny dining room was converted to a rehearsal studio with egg cartons on the wall to keep the neighbors happy. In the living room was a replica of McCartney's dad's upright piano, which the guide invited us to play. She said over one-hundred Beatles' songs were written in the living room, where John and Paul frequently collaborated while skipping school.
Lennon and McCartney lived in these homes even after their initial success. Cynthia and Julian Lennon stayed with Aunt Mimi while Lennon toured. McCartney's dad used to serve tea and cookies to girls who camped outside, waiting for a glimpse of his son.
Seeing the Beatles' neighborhoods, homes, schools, churches, halls and clubs reinforced how astounding their journey was.
They were teenagers, skipping school and playing cheap guitars, driven by their undefined vision to be rock 'n' roll stars.
They rode bikes and buses long distances throughout the city to play coffee clubs and seedy bars, often for free. It seems impossible they accomplished world-wide fame and fortune from such humble beginnings.
The Beatles have bequeathed Liverpool more than music and memories. They left an industry–museums, tours, souvenir shops, restaurants, pubs, cover bands and more, all Beatle-themed, many probably unauthorized, all pumping revenue into the old hometown.
At the conclusion of each National Trust tour, we were released to wander around Lennon's and McCartney's homes on our own.
I took time to revisit the bedrooms, decorated to look like any teenage boy's bedroom, including my own, during the 1950s and '60s.
In 2009, another pilgrim did the same. He was particularly fascinated by the collection of books Lennon read as a boy. The visitor wore a hoodie and went unrecognized by the other tourists on the minivan tour, probably because they were absorbed in Beatles' lore.
The tour guide, however, was aided by a list of the visitors' names. He recognized the Beatles' fan in the hoodie, who, now, is a recent Nobel-Prize winner.
Fascinating–I need to visit Liverpool! Thanks for sharing the wonderful descriptions, insight and details!
I so enjoy your entries, Kirk. You are living my dream and I thank you for sharing!
What a great post – loved your journey and look forward to hearing more about it soon. Couldn't visit on this trip, but looking forward to someday. Thanks for sharing Kirk – great stuff!!!
Mersey Beat was my favorite posting! What a treat to see those early sixties through your teen-age lens. As I was just married and living in Minnesota then, the world looked very different.

Swire in Australia
Swire
About Kalari
The Swire Group
Kalari in the Community
Australian Indigenous Education Foundation (AIEF)
Home > Sustainability > Kalari in the Community > Australian Indigenous Education
In February 2014, Swire announced a six year partnership with the Australian Indigenous Education Foundation (AIEF).
AIEF is a private sector led non-profit organisation focused on empowering Indigenous children in financial need to build a future through quality education and careers at Australia's leading schools, universities and companies.
AIEF has the highest retention and Year 12 attainment rates of any federally funded program in Australia, and 93% of the year 12 graduates from the AIEF program have embarked on a productive career pathway after completing secondary school. Having started with only one secondary school scholarship in 2008, AIEF has seen 151 students graduate from Year 12 and offered over 400 scholarship places across Australia in 2013.
AIEF have a proven track record in achieving results. Of AIEF scholarship students, over 90% graduate Year 12, with 39% of graduates continuing their education at university and 54% in vocational training or employment.
The phrase "Closing the Gap" is generally used to refer to the inequalities that exist between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. Only 51% of Indigenous students in Australia complete their schooling from the beginning of secondary school through to Year 12, while the non-Indigenous rate is around 81%. Indigenous people in the labour force are three times more likely than non-Indigenous people to be unemployed (16% compared with 5%).
AIEF believes marginalised Indigenous children should have access to some of Australia's best educational opportunities and pursue productive and fulfilling careers. That is why AIEF provides scholarships to boarding schools and residential university colleges through the AIEF Scholarship Program, while the AIEF Pathways Program offers intensive career support to equip students with the tools to unlock their potential and pursue their dreams. Swire's contribution of $1 million over six years will go towards funding more scholarships at various schools across Australia.
AIEF's mission is to empower Indigenous children to build a brighter future for themselves and for the nation. They aim to educate 7,000 Indigenous children at some of Australia's leading schools and universities and support their transition into meaningful careers.
AIEF works with its stakeholders and Indigenous students on AIEF scholarships to implement a number of key activities and programs which are part of the AIEF Pathways Program.
For example, the AIEF Mentor Program works with employees from AIEF's Corporate Partners, who donate their time in an ongoing relationship with an Indigenous student. This element of corporate engagement is a core principle of the Mentor Program, which seeks to build a structured and trusting relationship between a student and an experienced, professional individual who shares knowledge and offers instructive guidance and support about life and career options.
Swire has committed to a minimum six year partnership with AIEF. During this time, various opportunities will develop which will allow employees of Swire companies to become engaged in the Pathways Program. Specifically, we will be seeking employees who wish to volunteer as mentors or tutors to AIEF students. These opportunities will be limited at first as we learn more about what it involves, but will grow over time. Our engagement will also grow as AIEF continues to partner with more schools and provide more scholarships and the opportunities available to staff will be promoted as they emerge.
Applying for an AIEF Scholarship
AIEF partners with leading schools and colleges that have established Indigenous education programs and close relationships with Indigenous families and communities, providing high-quality educational opportunities to students who are enthusiastic about learning and eager to unlock their potential.
Partner schools are responsible for their core competencies of student selection and enrolments, student and family relationships, education and pastoral care. AIEF supports these schools by providing funding for Indigenous scholarships.
To apply for an AIEF scholarship, families contact AIEF Partner Schools directly to enquire what scholarships are available and to express interest in enrolling as an AIEF scholarship student. All enrolment discussions take place between the school and the family.
If you are interested in applying, visit the AIEF website.

Q: How to put not parse some markup tags inside CDATA How would I output something like this inside CDATA: **bold text**?
The following didn't work:
<![CDATA[<b>bold text</b>]]>

< doesn't get converted to <, so it shows <b>**bold text**</b>
Another line I tried is the following:
<![CDATA[bold text]]>

Unfortunately it didn't work either, just shows bold text.
The reason I need to do this is simply to include written CRDATA reference, or cheat sheet, into an application that supports CRDATA. I have since solved the issue as outlined in my answer to this question, I used a zero-width space to create fake formatting.

A: alright i found an answer I added a zero-width space to one of the  and  tags like this <*space*b>bold text</*space*b>, the output is this bold text as you can see it works
copied it from here https://invisible-characters.com/

Peter lived about 10 minutes from my place. I used to see him brisk walk around the Seletar Hills and Fernvale areas. We met once in a while and had our drinks after his walk. The last time I met him was months ago and I suspected he was sick again. He told me he had an operation to remove a tumor in his neck area a few years ago.
Peter was a gentleman and he was one of most likeable technical crew. He never had any problem with us the cabin crew. Many older generation of cabin crew knew him.

13098.27 руб. или Купить в рассрочку!
Heterocycles in Life and Society is an introduction to the chemistry of heterocyclic compounds, focusing on their origin and occurrence in nature, biochemical significance and wide range of applications. Written in a readable and accessible style, the book takes a multidisciplinary approach to this extremely important area of organic chemistry. Topics covered include an introduction to the structure and properties of heterocycles; the key role of heterocycles in important life processes such as the transfer of hereditary information, how enzymes function, the storage and transport of bioenergy, and photosynthesis; applications of heterocycles in medicine, agriculture and industry; heterocycles in supramolecular chemistry; the origin of heterocycles on primordial Earth; and how heterocycles can help us solve 21st century challenges. For this second edition, Heterocycles in Life and Society has been completely revised and expanded, drawing on a decade of innovation in heterocyclic chemistry. The new edition includes discussions of the role of heterocycles in nanochemistry, green chemistry, combinatorial chemistry, molecular devices and sensors, and supramolecular chemistry. Impressive achievements include the creation of various molecular devices, the recording and storage of information, the preparation of new organic conductors, and new effective drugs and pesticides with heterocyclic structures. Much new light has been thrown on various life processes, while the chemistry of heterocycles has expanded to include new types of heterocyclic structures and reactions, and the use of heterocyclic molecules as ionic liquids and proton sponges. Heterocycles in Life and Society is an essential guide to this important field for students and researchers in chemistry, biochemistry, and drug discovery, and scientists at all levels wishing to expand their scientific horizon.
Husson H. P. Asymmetric Synthesis of Nitrogen Heterocycles
Here, all aspects of the topic are presented in a compact manner. The book is clearly structured, and divided into two sections – asymmetric synthesis of heterocycles containing only one nitrogen and that of those with more than one nitrogen as a heteroatom – such that the necessary information may be found at a glance. The international team of authors provides important experimental procedures, including industrial applications. Essential for synthetic chemists in pharmaceutical and agrochemical chemistry.

Maryasev Igor, Аxelrod Lev, Platonov Anton Two challenges to the system of periclase quality evaluation
A novel objective method of digital analysis for microscopic examination of structural elements of fused periclase was developed. Main parameters are presented, which show the difference of the newly suggested method of investigation from the usual - linear one, in which examination is done with the help of chords. For comparison there are given results of measurements (done with the help of the old and the new method) of fused periclase crystal size, produced by Magnezit Group and by other manufacturers. Testing of fused periclase containing more than 97,5%MgO and various ratio of CaO/SiO2 in periclase - carbon refractories has not found influence of this parameter on the strength of refractories in steel - teeming ladles.

Niralwad Kirti Sadhurao, Ghorade Ishwar Baburao Heterocyclic Synthesis By Microwave Techniques
The heterocycles are of immense importance not only both biologically and industrially but to the functioning of any developed human society as well. Their participation in a wide range of areas cannot be underestimated. The majority of pharmaceutical products that mimic natural products with biological activity are heterocycles. Most of the significant advances against disease have been made by designing and testing new structures, which are often hetero aromatic derivatives. In addition, a number of pesticides, antibiotics, alkaloids, and cardiac glycosides are heterocyclic natural products of significance for human and animal health. Therefore, researchers are on a continuous pursuit to design and produce better pharmaceuticals, pesticides, insecticides, rodenticides, and weed killers. A significant part of such biologically active compounds is composed of heterocycles. These compounds play a major part in biochemical processes and the side groups of the most typical and essential constituents of living cells. Organic chemists have been engaged in extensive efforts to produce these heterocyclic compounds by developing new and efficient synthetic transformations.
Rafia Bashir Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds
Scientific Study from the year 2018 in the subject Chemistry - Organic Chemistry, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: Heterocyclic chemistry is one of the largest branches of chemistry. Well over six million discrete heterocyclic compounds are known, reflecting their central and important role in Science and Technology. The usefulness of heterocycles is due to their combination of compact and robust molecular structures with a high degree of molecular diversity that results in properties, which can be finely adjusted to the needs of sophisticated applications. This is well illustrated by the functions of many naturally occurring heterocycles that are essential components of living cells, including DNA in which specific nitrogen heterocycles are directly responsible for encoding all genetic information. Morphine and quinine, two of the earliest compounds to be used in therapy and in use today, are both heterocyclic natural products. William Perkin's synthesis of the lucrative quinine molecule in 1856 led to the discovery of an important synthetic heterocycle, mauveine, and this laid the foundation of the synthetic dye industry. This in turn gave birth to the modern industry when in 1932 the antibacterial properties of the dye lead to the discovery of heterocyclic sulfapyridines. These antibacterial agents were the first major life saving synthetic drugs and they quickly had a dramatic effect on the quality of life.

Mohamed Nemr Review article on Solid Phase Synthesis
The first concept of solid phase synthesis was performed by Merrifield (1) in a dipeptide synthesis from two amino acids. Not surprisingly, Solid phase synthesis did not remain limited to peptides, but also it was extended to heterocycles, so many synthesis methods in solution phase had been transferred to solid phase processes.So, solid phase organic synthesis had become very attractive route of synthesis due to its simplicity of separation of synthetic intermediates from soluble components of a reaction mixture by simple filtration and washing of the resin bound reaction product.

The Armies of the Night
October 21, 1967, Washington, D.C. 20,000 to 200,000 protesters are marching to end the war in Vietnam, while helicopters hover overhead and federal marshals and soldiers with fixed bayonets await them on the Pentagon steps. Among the marchers is Norman Mailer. From his own singular participation in the day's events and his even more extraordinary perceptions comes a classic work that shatters the mould of traditional reportage. Intellectuals and hippies, clergymen and cops, poets and army MPs crowd the pages of a book in which facts are fused with techniques of fiction to create the nerve-end reality of experiential truth.
Sun Warrior The Creation in Time
On the first day of spring of the new millennium, a minister's son had a profound experience of the Creator. Instead of coming as the Christian God, the Divine manifested as The Great Spirit. What was wrong with civilization? The journey into modern society began, as the Original Wisdom confronted Western, middle class culture. The dominant mind of knowledge that we take for granted was suddenly naked. There is a contemporary yearning for real spiritual experience, outside of formal, intellectual religion. The Creator broke all the rules. Strange events conformed to meaning that came from the 'heart.' Coincidences, past lives, soul stories, dreams, and visions fused with a modern, secular life story. What is outside of the invisible box that we call civilization? Escape mind culture, and truly understand what it means to live within the Creation in Time.

Provides academics, researchers and graduate students with a comprehensive review of advances in metallabenzene research Covers fused-ring metallabenzenes—including metallanaphthalenes, metallabenzofurans, and metallabenzothiophenes—as well as p-bound heterometallabenzenes and metallabenzenes Reviews the latest computational studies that have led to the theoretical understanding of metallabenzenes Includes critical discussions of metallabenzene aromaticity, an area rarely covered by computational experts Metallabenzenes: An Expert View is an important working resource for those working in organometallic chemistry, aromaticity, coordination chemistry, theoretical chemistry, catalysis and materials science. It is also an excellent text for graduate-level courses in those areas.
Goswami K. V., Goswami T. K., Vyas S. P. Novel Chalchone Derivetives
The chemistry of chalcone has been recognized as a significant field of study.Chalcones are the compounds where aromatic substituent are introduced into the terminal position of the system -C=C-C=O. So, chalcones are characterized by their possession of a structure in which two aromatic rings A and B are linked by an aliphatic three-carbon chain [(A) Ar-CO-CH=CH-Ar (B)]. An interesting feature of chalcone is that it serves as starting materials for the synthesis of various heterocyclic compounds such as pyrimidines, pyrazolines, pyrazoles, flavones, flavonols, flavanones, aurones and benzoyl coumarones as well as certain compounds like deoxybenzoins and hydantoins, which are of some therapeutic value.

Rebecca Loudon Cadaver Dogs
The images in this book vibrate. "Mars hangs above you like a meat chime." "An ovary red dress." "Let me release the thin broth tadpole-/sticky lake from between my legs." Cadaver Dogs gives us a fast and furious poetry of "linguistic impulse" (poet Denise Levertov's term) fused with a poetry of visceral impulse, and rushes of hyped up innuendo. Multiple sensory cataracts pour forth on every page. Whether their mode is pensive, elegiac, sexual or all of the above, these poems embrace the undomesticated, taking as a given the fact that humans are perpetually channeling the various animals we contain. Want vividness and gusto, postmodern sensitivity, lingual rapture? Consume this book, or let it consume you. -- Amy Gertsler

Aliev Rayimjon Polycrystalline wafers from powder Silicon for Solar cells
The book is devoted the experimental analysis of a new way of obtaining of silicon wafers from the powder raw materials intended for use as a base material for solar cells. Before the powder technology of obtaining of silicon wafers has not been considered as an alternative way of obtaining of base wafers for solar cells and substrates for films. The polycrystalline silicon wafers obtained by a method of molding and forming from a powder and also photo-electric structures with the p-n-junction formed on their basis also electro-physical and photo-electrical characteristics of plates and structures and processes of carrying over of a charge in them at photo-excitation are the basic object of research. Electro-physical characteristics of investigated wafers and photo-electric characteristics of structures are measured at the standardized stands. Impurity the structure on the fused sites and on grains boundaries of the poly-Si is defined by spectroscope Cameca. The theoretical analysis of charge carrying process of in the poly-Si structures will be carried out under the well-known theory of physics of semiconductor devices with flat p-n-junction.
David J. Rodger God Seed
In the near future, a documentary film-maker is covering mercenaries engaged in corporate espionage. A nervous executive wants to smuggle stolen data to Cairo. Yet events rapidly and frighteningly escalate out of control. The film-maker finds himself battling for his life and his sanity as a new and dramatic story unfolds, dragging him across the globe...and beyond. Fascist extremists, Islamic terrorists, corrupt government officials and a religious sect that worships a nefarious avatar of a many-faced God of the Outer Void, become fused into a gruesome knot of lies, treachery and mass-murder. David J Rodger's trademark gut-wrenching rendering of a dark and edgy reality, and relentless narrative pace, are here in palm-sweating abundance, delivered in a tense action-packed novel that plunges you uncomfortably deep into crawling chaos festering and feeding on the membrane of human existence.
Paul Adam, Victor Considerant The Humanisphere
This collection presents four French "utopian fantasies" which were all ground-breaking in their day. Victor Considerant's The Complete News from the Moon (1836) is a utopia in which the society described is only related to existing societies in satirical terms, and very subtly. Fernand Giraudeau's The New City (1868) and Joseph Déjacque's The Humanisphere (1899) are both set in future Paris, one imagining the ideal society that might result from the politics of Anarchism, the other a dystopia arguing the opposite viewpoint. Paul Adam's Letters from Malaisie (1898) presents a society that, although founded by eutopians, has produced a compromised result, in which eutopian and dystopian elements are fused, thus raising the question of whether any program of political reform could possibly produce the intended results, given the vagaries of human nature.
Nagatoshi Nishiwaki Methods and Applications of Cycloaddition Reactions in Organic Syntheses
Advanced tools for developing new functional materials and applications in chemical research, pharmaceuticals, and materials science Cycloadditions are among the most useful tools for organic chemists, enabling them to build carbocyclic and heterocyclic structures. These structures can then be used to develop a broad range of functional materials, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, dyes, and optics. With contributions from an international team of leading experts and pioneers in cycloaddition chemistry, this book brings together and reviews recent advances, trends, and emerging research in the field. Methods and Applications of Cycloaddition Reactions in Organic Syntheses focuses on two component cycloadditions, with chapters covering such topics as: N1 unit transfer reaction to C–C double bonds [3+2] Cycloaddition of α, β-unsaturated metal-carbene complexes Formal [3+3] cycloaddition approach to natural product synthesis Development of new methods for the construction of heterocycles based on cycloaddition reaction of 1,3-dipoles Cycloreversion approach for preparation of large π-conjugated compounds Transition metal-catalyzed or mediated [5+1] cycloadditions Readers will learn methods for seamlessly executing important reactions such as Diels-Alder and stereoselective dipolar reactions in order to fabricate heterocyclic compounds, natural products, and functional molecules. The book not only features cutting-edge topics, but also important background information, such as the contributors' process for developing new methodologies, to help novices become fully adept in the field. References at the end of each chapter lead to original research papers and reviews for facilitating further investigation of individual topics. Covering the state of the science and technology, Methods and Applications of Cycloaddition Reactions in Organic Syntheses enables synthetic organic chemists to advance their research and develop new functional materials and applications in chemical research, pharmaceuticals, and materials science.
Lara Saxby-Soria Time and Memory
This essay considers the work of two French New Wave auteurs, Chris Marker and Alain Resnais. It focuses on a discussion of Marker's film La Jetée (1962) and Resnais' L'Année Dernière à Marienbad (1961) and makes a comparative analysis of the ways in which these films take the theme of Time and the processes of memory as the subject of the films themselves. Both films reject established 'découpage classique' model of Hollywood film construction in favour of an understanding of time which is free to skip parts, loop and repeat sections, to make jump cuts and transcend time. Time is understood, in Bergson's terms, as "multidirectional, in which past, present and future time are fused and continuous." As Resnais has said: "If cinema is not a method of juggling specifically with time, [it is] in any event the method of which it is best adapted to..."
J. Yasodhara Menon Malaysian Folk Tales. A Study of Archetypal Patterns in Selected Tales
Malaysian folk tales are rich with symbolic imagery which tells the story of a nation and its people - the people of Malaysia. To further understand the psyche of the Malaysian people, some popular folk tales have been studied in this book using Jung's theory of archetypes. Reoccurring motifs, symbols and imagery suggest that Malaysian folk tales and Western fairy tales have much in common thereby subscribing to Jung's theory that archetypes are present in all human psyches. Jung further postulates that this is proof of the Universal Unconscious. The human mind does not exist independently and is fused to the Universal Unconscious thereby explaining why similar motifs, symbols and imagery exist in the oral literature of different cultures all over the world. However, these symbols and motifs are similar but never identical due to the concept of the collective cultural unconscious, a theory which was not acknowledged by Jung. This theory suggests that diverse cultures of people tend to subconsciously pass on set ideas of thinking, behavioral patterns and stereotypical images to the next generation.
Hassam Sheikh Who is Speaking. Male or Female
Master's Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Computer Science - Miscellaneous, grade: A+, University of Manchester, language: English, abstract: The aim of this project was to create a gender identification system that can beused to identify the gender of the speaker. In this dissertation I have explained thesignal processing background such as Fourier transforms and DCT etc. that wasneeded to understand the underlying signal processing happening in digital devices.Apart from that I also investigated the different classification techniques such asAdaboost and Gaussian Mixture Models and different types of methods such asFusion method, acoustic methods and pitch methods used in gender identification.From this perspective I have implemented 3 types of models (4 Models) thatare explained in the literature and introducing a new method for gender recognitionthat uses SDC feature with pitch to identify the gender. All models were testedand trained on the same amount of speech. The SDC and SDC fused model gavesatisfactory results on Voxforge dataset. Finally I tested the acoustic and fusedmodels on YouTube video which gave almost 90% accuracy. The results of myimplementations are shown in chapter 6.

Hasan, Asghar and Rashid fined for breaching ICC Code of Conduct
Pakistan fast bowler Hasan Ali, and Afghanistan's duo of Asghar Afghan and Rashid Khan have all been fined 15 per cent of their match fees and received one demerit point for breaching the ICC code of conduct during their Super-Four match in the Asia Cup in Abu Dhabi on Friday.
Hasan and Asghar were found guilty of breaching Article 2.1.1 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to "conduct that is contrary to the spirit of the game", while Rashid was found to have violated Article 2.1.7, which deals with "using language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batsman upon his/her dismissal during an International Match."
While Hasan and Rashid have received demerit points for the first time, it is the second occasion that Asghar has been handed a demerit point within a 24-month period. In February 2017, Asghar received a reprimand and one demerit point for showing dissent against an umpire's decision in an ODI against Zimbabwe. As such, he now has two demerit points.
The incident involving Hasan Ali happened in the 33rd over of Afghanistan's innings when he threatened to throw the ball towards the striker Hashmatullah Shahidi after fielding off his own bowling.
Afghan skipper was handed a penalty when brushed his shoulder with the bowler Hasan in the 37th over as he passed him while taking a run.
Rashid was charged and fined for giving a send-off to Asif Ali in the 47th over of Pakistan's innings by holding up a finger and staring at the batsman, an action that could have provoked an aggressive reaction from the departing batsman.
After the match, all the three players pleaded guilty to the offences and accepted the sanctions proposed by Andy Pycroft (Match Referee) and, as such, there was no need for a formal hearing.

Pop Some Popcorn and Enjoy....Wait, no need, Corn Already on the Screen
10 February 2011 | by Scott_Mercer – See all my reviews
Yes, this show was created over a decade before "The Larry Sanders Show," "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" and other "backstage at a comedy show" type formats. But that doesn't mean this show invented the format, and there's little reason to lionize this program as some kind of innovation.
The same format was done earlier by "The Muppet Show," and various other films, television shows and stage plays going back decades. The whole idea of "breaking the fourth wall" which this show skirts doing occasionally, also was done decades earlier by much more talented performers, including Jack Benny, George Burns and Jackie Gleason.
Steinberg mixes his stand up sets in with a few variety show style sketches (boy do they seem canned), usually interrupted with some of the corniest sit-com style antics you've ever seen. Frankly, in spite of Steinberg's "with it" topical references to pot brownies and free love, the comedy here is about as edgy, threatening and cutting edge as a Nerf ball. Maybe that's just a matter of time going by, but, hey, one decade's cutting edge is another decade's corn.
It actually reminded me of the sitcom/variety show mooted by the retro doo wop group "Sha Na Na" which was also produced around this time period (1976 according to copyright date on the show...apparently Steinberg did a brief summer replacement version in 1972, then the full 24 episode season in 1976-77).
The one and only reason I am giving this show a 5 is the chance to see most of the SCTV cast doing their thing, even before SCTV started (or it might have been around the first season of their syndicated half hour show). Martin Short, John Candy, Dave Thomas and Joe Flaherty are all on board. If you're a Monty Python fan, it's a similar effect to watching At Last The 1948 Show or Do Not Adjust Your Set. Lots of fun to see those guys working their craft before the triumphs they would later go on to. Okay, fine maybe "triumphs" is a ridiculously overblown word to use, but, what can I say, I'm a comedy nerd.
The only other use of this material is as a 1970's pop culture time capsule, what with all the wacky 70's celebrity guest appearances, including Scatman Crothers, Mason Reese, Tommy Smothers, Norm Crosby, and cast member Bill "Ya Doesn't Has Ta Call Me Johnson" Saluga, who pounded the same bit into the ground on Redd Foxx's short lived variety show at, again, about the same time (and in addition to later appearing in a series of beer commercials with...Norm Crosby...small world.)
If that doesn't get your 1970's pop culture jones buzzing, I don't know what will.
So, for SCTV junkies, it's a solid recommendation. For Seventies fanatics, you might get off on this.
For all others, I would not go out of your way seeking it out.

Pickford Film Center

"The most perfect movie that will ever be made about its subject, Apollo 11 takes the purest documentary idea imaginable—telling the story of the first journey to the moon and back using only the footage captured in the moment—and rides it all the way home. Conceptually, it's a masterstroke: Other films have leaned into narration or interviews, while Damien Chazelle's brooding First Man took a somewhat incidental leap into personal grief.
But by mining a trove of NASA's archival footage (much of it unseen since 1969 or ever), disciplined filmmaker Todd Douglas Miller places an unmistakable emphasis on the thousands of people who toiled in quiet synchronicity, pulling off America's greatest mission without a hitch. Apollo 11 will bring you to tears—it's a reminder of national functionality, of making the big dream happen without ego or divisiveness." Joshua Rothkopf for Time Out.
