In 2011, it was also linked to problems in newborn babies causing abnormal muscle movement and withdrawl symptoms. Countless people taking Abilify® have lost $30,000 to $50,000 or more due to gambling losses, often leading to home foreclosures and ruined relationships.
Asbestos (Mesothelioma)
Mesothelioma is a form of cancer that develops in the tissues of cells that line the lungs, heart and abdomen. These tissues are called mesothelial cells and they can become infected by inhaling particles of dust from asbestos fibers. It's estimated that there are 3,000-4,000 mesothelioma diagnoses each year in the U.S. Symptoms of mesothelioma may not appear until 20 to 50 years after exposure to asbestos. Shortness of breath, cough, and pain in the chest due to an accumulation of fluid in the pleural space are often symptoms of pleural mesothelioma.
Attune® Knee System
The Attune® Knee System (manufactured by DePuy Orthopaedics, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson) has been named in a growing number of adverse event complaints with the FDA. Although knee replacements often last up to 20 years, knee replacement patients with the Attune® Knee System often require additional surgery due to early failure of the device within a couple years and sometimes within months of the surgery. These reconstructive surgeries also make patients more likely to suffer an infection and other complications including nerve or blood vessel damage.
ATV Rollover Accidents
The popularity of all terrain vehicles (ATVs) have greatly increased the number of serious injuries associated with their use. Hundreds of people, many under the age of 16, die each year from ATV rollovers.

The two models, the Oxinium Genesis 2 and the Profix 2 were used in implant operations between June of 2002 and March, 2003. These models failed to bond properly and became loose. As a result, many patients required additional corrective surgery, suffered infections and experienced further joint and muscle damage, often leading to painful rehabilitation.
Kugel Hernia Patch
The Bard® Composix® Kugel® Mesh Patch is used to repair hernias caused by thinning or stretching of scar tissue that forms after surgery. The patch is placed behind the hernia through a small incision. The patch is then held open by a "memory recoil ring" that first allows it to be folded for insertion, and then causes it to spring open and lay flat once it is in place. The recoil ring that opens the patch can break, leading to bowel perforations and to abnormal passageways between the intestines and other organs. Symptoms associated with ring breakage include abdominal pain, fever and tenderness at the implant site.

Cable gizmo. They install. It breaks. I should get gouged?
The modern electronic age has turned me into a cat burglar, on my hands and knees, messing with wires and cords and plugs.
The good side is that I managed to slip inside the velvet rope of minimal competence. The Internet and the gadgets allow me to do things and learn things that were impossible in my first two decades in journalism.
I have older friends of sound mind who stare blankly when I say "web site" or "emails." They missed the Last Train to Clarksville for all the little stupidities that so captivate me.
When I broke into the business, we used typewriters and paper. With the help of technology mentors at the Times like Howard Angione ("If Vecsey can learn this, anybody can") and Charlie Competello and Walt Baranger, I learned some stuff.
In the early '80's, a union electrician turned off the press-box power at the stroke of midnight and blow out my portable computer. In Barcelona! But the next day I was able to find the right tubes in a growing technology block in that grand old city.
Later, I had to explain to dubious hotel clerks why I needed to borrow a dedicated 800 fax line for 30 seconds to transmit an article from my laptop. Nowadays, I call help centers when the wi-fi doesn't work in my hotel room. This is called progress.
Somehow, I manage this personal therapy web site – photos, copy, headlines, type size – after training-wheels tutorials from my patient friend Becky Collet.
Labor-saving devices? A good friend (older than me) and I compare notes about constantly updating our contacts.
In my house we have three – count 'em, three – clickers for one TV set and one sound bar. If my finger hits the wrong button, my wife has to reprogram the whole thing.
At times I dutifully try to diagnose the problems that pop up from having, oh, just a few cable boxes around the house.
Recently, a TV went dead. We ran around for days trying to sort it out. We exchanged boxes. Then we drove a TV to a throwback reputable repair place my wife discovered half an hour east of us. Nope. TV worked. And the guy waved off a bench charge. Can you imagine?
Ultimately, the problem was a faulty gizmo in the cable coming into the house, installed by our local company.
"No way you would know," the technician told us before the office tried to bill us $80 for fixing their faulty piece they installed.
I keep blaming that cable company for the twin blights of Carmelo Anthony and Madison Square Garden, but it seems the cable portion has been sold to some Dutch company. Somebody smart sorted out the problem; maybe it was Amsterdam or maybe it was Long Island. Either way, this is also called progress.
I forgot to include this stanza from Loudon Wainwright III's "Last Man on Earth:"
I hate that letter "e"
OMG, George, Taube has been trying to fix our TV for 3 days, due to some cable problem which I do not understand.
I wish I were as obdurate in searching for answers and solutions when my electronic gadgets malfunction as you are. I merely panic and yell for Taube to fix them, kind of like Bill Belichick who is apparently as mechanically challenged as I am.
Worse, the law biz is as full of complicated programs as any other, and the old days when you could just pawn off your work on a secretary are long gone. In fact, secretary's, at least in the law biz, are essentially obsolete. Who saw that coming?
You also know him as the writer of what was used as the theme song on the Early Show and Late Show on WOR, channel Nine, a composition known to everyone outside of NYC as The Syncopated Clock.
When you and I and our contemporary friends pass out of this life, there will be no one left who appreciates this wonderful composition. In my view, we are old before our time! Change comes too fast.
Brian: that is true with everything -- the next generation cannot be expected to know much about "our" music, or most books, or public figures. I get blank looks when talking about FDR or Ike.
Normal, I guess. I try to interject stuff.
One grand-daughter comes over, and I play Nina Simone or Joe Williams or Bob Marley. She listens....but she likes music of her time, which is right now. Normal.
heartening to know that i'm not the only technologically challenged person in north america.
it's a burden to bear.
i don't care how computers or cars work and i have zero intellectual curiosity about either.
i just turn 'em on and cross my fingers.

Welcome to the Senate Intel Committee live blog!
Good morning and welcome to the NBC News live blog of Wednesday's Senate Intelligence Committee hearing! We're excited to cover what should be one of the more momentous public testimonies in the history of modern technology, and we'll bring you all the background, context and in-the-room anecdotes we can find.
A quick reminder of why we're here: With the U.S. 2018 midterm elections just about two months away, there's a renewed focus on just what technology and social media companies are doing to stop foreign actors from spreading divisive propaganda and manipulating the political discourse. Facebook, Twitter, Google and Reddit have all announced recent actions against what they found to be foreign influence campaigns, and beyond that there have already been reports of attempts to hack into various political campaigns.
Who is attending: Facebook Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey are scheduled to testify. The most notable absence is anyone from Google. The Senate Intel Committee had hoped to hear from either Larry Page, CEO of Alphabet, the parent company of Google, or Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Google. The company had offered to send its chief legal officer, but the committee has balked at that. There reportedly could be an empty seat next to Sandberg and Dorsey.
What's going to happen: Though the title of the hearing centers on foreign influence, Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., who is vice chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, plans to touch on a wide variety of topics including possibly policy solutions to some of tech's privacy issues.
Ben Popken
And that's a wrap!
And that's a wrap on the hearing.
Sandberg and Dorsey faced deliberate questions from representatives on a range of key technical, policy and philosophical issues, logging several important answers for the record.
Perhaps the hearing's most important accomplishment was showcasing to the public the growing contrition by the social media companies and the desire to collaborate with other groups as well as their fellow tech companies. And over and over again, they expressed remorse and acknowledged they hadn't done enough to stop foreign influence operations, and begged for government and third party "tips" to spot more.
But fundamentally the platforms remain committed to their idea of being neutral platforms who do not arbitrate truth, they simply decide whether "information" is more or less visible. When asked to take a stand on WikiLeaks and Julian Assange, who have been identified as hostile non-state actors, both Sandberg and Dorsey said the accounts haven't been removed because they don't violate the companies' policies.
Though American-born and benefiting from U.S. free speech and telecommunications laws, the companies now exist on a global level that can in some ways surpass the reach of the elected representatives from its country of origin.
Dorsey is headed over to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, where he will almost inevitably face questions about perceived liberal bias at Twitter.
Google could face some blowback over its no show. Many senators seemed legitimately angry that the company had not sent a senior executive.
Google looks to be the loser from the Senate hearing
The hearing has had some contentious moments, but in general it feels like Sandberg and Dorsey have been able to provide enough answers to satisfy the members of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
But the one thing that has frustrated numerous senators is the absence of Google.
Does that mean anything for Google?
Dorsey offers some kind words to journalists
Journalists have a love/hate relationship with Twitter, and it appears Twitter's CEO is well aware.
Dorsey, who recently walked back comments in which he said journalists should monitor the service for misinformation, offered some kinds words to reporters.
Dorsey said journalists do call out misinformation "with a high degree of velocity" and that "we don't do a great job of giving them the best tools and context to do that work."
Sen. Rubio and Alex Jones exchange heated words outside of hearing
Well here's a bizarre scene. Sen. Rubio was speaking with reporters outside of the hearing when Alex Jones approached.
The two exchanged heated words, with Rubio telling Jones not to touch him after Jones put his hand on Rubio's shoulder. Rubio added that he would not call the police but rather "take care of you myself."
Just another day in D.C.
Could Americans really be moving away from Facebook?
Despite its many controversies, Facebook has maintained some sense of invincibility. But maybe it shouldn't.
As Sandberg testifies, there's increasing buzz on social media over this new Pew Research report that found 42 percent of U.S. adults said they have taken a break from the social network in the last year.
Beyond that, a staggering 26 percent said they had deleted the app from their smartphones.
Pew's research was conducted from late May to early June in 2018, which is a time period not long after the Cambridge Analytica scandal broke.
That said, Facebook still owns two other popular apps — Instagram and WhatsApp.
Google continues to take its lumps
Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., also dings Google, wondering aloud if the company's absence is "because they are arrogant."
There's an empty chair with a "Google" placard at the hearing.
Lucy Bayly
Tech stocks tumble as Sandberg, Dorsey testify
The tech-heavy Nasdaq stock index is headed towards its worst day for a month as tech leaders testify.
Twitter shares were the hardest hit, losing more than 6 percent. Facebook shares also declined, off 1.6 percent in mid-morning trading. Google's parent company, Alphabet, dropped 2.2 percent.
Tech companies dragged down the overall Nasdaq, with the index down 1.5 percent, dipping below 8,000.
Sen. Wyden gets a 'yes' on personal privacy as a matter of national security
In one of the more straightforward exchanges, Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Or., asks if protecting personal privacy protection is a national security priority.
"Yes," is the answer from Sandberg and Dorsey.
The notion of personal digital privacy as a matter of national security would open up some interesting ideas about the government's role in regulating how social media companies handle user data.
Warner pushes Sandberg on data collection
Sen. Warner pressed Facebook's Sandberg to get several answers on the record. For instance, should users get notified what the cash value of their data?
Sandberg didn't answer directly, saying the company would be willing to work with the committee. Warner asked if there are certain pieces of data that a user should not be able to consent away to Facebook. Sandberg said yes, like in the case of data that would come up during a law enforcement investigation.
Finally, Warner asked, "does Facebook have a moral and legal obligation to take down accounts that incite violence," citing the genocidal violence in Myanmar against Rohingya Muslims, exacerbated by racist hoaxes spread on Facebook and its owned messaging app, WhatsApp.
Sandberg agreed Facebook did have a moral and legal obligation to take down such content, leading Warner to say that if Facebook did it and other companies did not, then that could be the basis for sanctions against those companies.
Alex Jones enters Senate Intel hearing room
NBC News correspondent Jo Ling Kent is in the hearing room and has an update on Alex Jones: He's entered the room and is sitting in the audience.
Could Twitter label bots? Maybe!
A line of questioning from Sen. Warner has already turned up an interesting notion — that Twitter could label which accounts are bots and which are humans.
Of course, it's not easy. Dorsey noted that bots can be masked, but added that they are looking at a system to give users a better idea of what's behind the avatars.
"We can label them," Dorsey said. "It's really a question of implementation. We are interested in it, and we are going to do something along those lines."

Q: How to create a dictionary where the key is the combination of three strings? I want to create a dictionary like
string, string, string: string

Is this possible in C#?
If it is possible, how to access the value by key?

A: var d = new Dictionary<(string, string, string), string>(); should do the job.
See Tuple types.
Here's an example:
var key1 = ("a","b","c");

var d = new Dictionary<(string,string,string),string>()
{
    {key1, "value1"},
    {("a","b","d"), "value2"}
};

Console.WriteLine($"{d.ContainsKey(key1)}");
Console.WriteLine($"{d.ContainsKey(("a","b","x"))}");

This produces:
True
False

Option B. Make your own key
Depending on your needs and details of your keys the following pair could work too:

*

*Dictionary<string,string> plus

*public static string GetKey(string a, string b, string c) => a+b+c;
This way "aa" + "b" + "c" == "a" + "ab" + "c" but this may be OK or you could use a separator. You know your data, so you can make the best choice.

What's the big fracking deal? Toxic spills.
Alan Septoff
Updated. Update II.
While the natural gas industry maintains that stronger regulations aren't needed, its track record continues to prove otherwise.
On Tuesday, the Wayne Independent reported that three "substantial" toxic spills by a fracker have occurred in less than one week in Dimock Township, Pennsylvania.
"A spokesperson for the state Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) confirmed that Cabot Oil & Gas, who is engaging in extensive drilling operations in the small community, spilled "hundreds of gallons" of the volatile chemical mixture Tuesday morning.
It is the same chemical – one that can cause skin cancer and a malady of other health issues – that spewed out of a pipe, twice, last Wednesday – amounting to more than 8,000 gallons of the harmful fluid entering the environment.
It can cause headache, dizziness, or other central nervous system effects, according to the material safety data sheet obtained by The Wayne Independent. Inhalation may "cause respiratory irritation … chemical pneumonia … slurred speech, giddiness and unconsciousness."
Although these are surface spills, they still highlight the need for federal regulation of drilling in two ways.
First, it shows why we need full disclosure of fracking chemicals. Although in this case it seems that the community was able to determine many of the health risks associated with the spill — there are cases where the immediate risks were unknown until it was too late, and the long-term risks of repeated exposure to chemicals are sometimes never studied. What constitutes disclosure should not be left up to the companies.
Second, it shows that companies require close regulatory supervision. There may be exemplary drilling companies who would never need regulation. But those are not the companies for whom regulations are written. It's the actors who, absent the threat of regulatory supervision and sanction, allow communities and the environment to bear the costs of drilling so that they can reap greater profits.
And that seems to be the case with what happened in Dimock. Three spills from the same source should never happen.
If you agree, please support the FRAC Act by contacting your members of Congress.
UPDATE: The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection has issued a notice of violation to Cabot. ProPublica also has more.
According the release civil penalties (a fine) may be assessed. Unless they DO assess a hefty fine, DEP will signal to the drilling industry that fines are just the cost of the status quo — as opposed to signaling that the status quo (the type of behavior that led to these spills) must change.
UPDATE II: PA DEP orders Cabot to cease operations in Susequehanna County.
If @USChamber and @APIenergy truly wanted to #cutmethane they would support the @cleanaircatf plan to put the Clean… https://t.co/V2SSx78GRe


However, there is a very special point of view about the impracticality of this colour. Let's check it in practice and give some necessary pieces of advice.
It is of common knowledge that on a cream coffee table the dust is almost invisible. By the way, it is rather opposed to, for example, black tables, on which every speck of dust and grit is seen in any part of the day.
Do not forget that any kind of material has its own tendency to the contamination, which does not depend on the colour. Cream coffee tables become dirty not sooner than the other ones. – The matter is that on the bog-brown covering the dust and dirt are not so noticeable. But, of course, it doesn't mean that you don't feel it touching or breathing.
The stain, occasionally appeared on a top of your cream coffee table can sometimes be easier to remove than from the colour and bright one. You see the white covering may be washed at higher temperatures, or even boil, if it is made of cloth. It will not fade from the use of the active bleach. The tops of cream coffee tables often can be cleaned with chlorine-containing agents and even acids.
As to their using, the surfaces of cream coffee tables are not rather different from the ordinary ones. – All you need is a regular cleaning with a damp cloth or sponge and a universal detergent. The basic rule is to remove all stains as early as possible. – Do not let dirt, grease, coloured pigments to absorb, because deep-seated stains often become impossible to remove.
Be careful with abrasive cleaners. They are harmful not only for the dark glossy furniture. Damaging topsheet layer of cream surfaces, the abrasive particles make them more susceptible to any kind of the contamination.
So, as we can see, the dream to have a cream coffee table in your living, sitting or even dining room can become true. This piece of furniture, in spite of all the talking, doesn't need any exhausting cleaning or additional time and strength for service. You will do all the things you have used to do, but at the same time having a pleasant and comfort atmosphere at home.

Policy decisions now could lead to big changes in the future for higher education, suggests Stephen Isherwood, chief executive of the Institute of Student Employers.
I once told a market researcher that putting a camera into a mobile phone was a dumb idea. So maybe I shouldn't attempt to predict the future. But even though it is beset with problems, I think that ten years from now a significant proportion of school leavers' routes into work could be through higher and degree apprenticeships.
Policy Connect senior researcher Tom McEwan is right to point out in a Higher Education Policy Institute blog the significant issues degree apprenticeship providers and employers face when working with the apprenticeship levy. Even the Cabinet Office has cancelled one of its programmes. If the government can't make its own policy work for itself, you have to wonder what smaller, less resourced businesses are supposed to do.
The levy is disliked by employers, but they are starting to work out how to spend it. The Institute of Student Employers (ISE) pool of employer members are hiring apprentices at a greater rate than graduates as they become better at utilising the levy. And the levy isn't going away as I can't see the Treasury handing the money back to employers. I know the accountancy sector very well. In the decade after PwC created the first accounting & finance partnership degree with Newcastle University, the industry created a plethora of alternative qualification routes with a range of partners. Sectors that have previously not considered apprentice routes will eventually find ways to spend their levy pot.
Employers love students with work experience but student demand for internships often outstrips employers' supply, particularly in the legal sector. Sheffield Hallam University has come up with an innovative solution: create your own law practice to offer intern places to students. Employers always tell me their intern students make better hires as they are more likely to accept a job offer, stay longer and outperform their peers. Although SHU might find its subject level TEF employment score suffer - in a WonkHE blog, Stuart Johnson, Director of the Careers Service at the University of Bristol, says he has discovered that because the next qualification an aspiring lawyer takes on graduation isn't higher than level six, it is not deemed a positive outcome. Let's hope this gets ironed out in the pilot stage.
Five years ago, fewer than 20 per cent of ISE employer members were focused on social mobility. Now over 70 per cent are. But progress is slow and cold spots are only going to get worse unless the government does more, says the APPG on social mobility. Often singled out for criticism, Oxford is doing more and will give £5,000 bursaries to students with parents on low incomes from 2020. Unlike in the 1950s, we don't have an expanding pool of middle-class jobs – the opposite if artificial intelligence consumes much white-collar work. Will some have to descend the escalator as others ascend? Will HE have to turn away some of those it currently accepts? If it does, HE and policy makers will have to be prepared for a backlash.
But Theresa May can't think about much beyond Brexit at the moment. I'm sure at times she would like to post a sweary rant on social media as Shakira Martin, NUS President, recently did on Facebook. With just over 30 days left to tick off the Brexit calendar, two news items highlighted our Brexit problems. The outlook for Erasmus remains uncertain and Britain's disengagement from the European University Institute shows what 'taking back control' looks like in practice. In a WonkHE blog Iain Mansfield attempted to predict Brexit's silver linings for the sector to Remainers like myself (and failed if the post's comments are anything to go by). I sympathise with the Brexiters' sovereignty and anti-bureaucracy arguments. But the amount of toil and treasure we are expending on Brexit to the detriment of all other issues we must tackle beggars belief.
In a month's time the crystal ball may clear, but as Bill Gates once said, "We always overestimate the change that will occur in the next two years and underestimate the change that will occur in the next ten".

I just finished talking to new online lead that we got from Google PPC. As soon as I called her she was very apprehensive. She was stern in her voice and I didn't mirror match it. I was firm and very kind with my tonality.
She sounded surprised and said that she was just looking. I asked her how she ended up choosing the area on her home search. She didn't answer my question, she asked me if I knew the area well and where I lived. I answered her and she was happy that I lived close by. I went ahead and gave her information about the area and about the weather. She went on to tell me that they are moving in 1 year because they are retiring. She told me that the last time she bought it took 1 year to make a move and the realtor she was using didn't wait for her or follow up.
I laughed again and I told her that I would gladly wait for her to make her decision, even if it took 4 years. "I like to build relationships Michelle, I hope you can appreciate that." She loved my response and told me she would be down to visit in 1 month and looks forward to working with me and my team.
1. Don't just call one time, call 2-3 times within 10 minutes. If no response, then text and email. She answered on the 3rd call in 10 minutes.
2. People can feel your energy, make sure your tonality and energy are on point. Before you call clients get your mindset right.
3. Follow up and nurturing is part of succeeding in a massive way in this business. If you aren't ready to follow up then be prepared for failure.
When you are towards the end of the conversation, be sure to repeat your name. Something that I do often is, "Michelle, again my name is Tristan Ahumada, Realtor and I'm glad that we are going to work together".

M old infestation and growth often occurs indoors following water damage. Mold, like any other life form, needs water to grow. Extract the water, remove the moisture and you have stopped the mold from growing but you have not eliminated it yet.
So, how long does it take for mold to grow? Only a few centimeters/inches of water (or even just high humidity) can create a hazardous situation in your home as it just takes a few short days for mold to develop. Standing water in your basement or house can quickly create mold, leaving you with hefty clean up bills and increased risk of illness. And once your home has been infested with mold, there is little that can be done other than professional mold remediation to take care of the infestation problem.
Mold development is an easy three step process: Moisture, Food source (organic matter) and warm temperatures.
It's always crucial to stop the mold growth in your property immediately when you notice it. Mold and mildew need to be isolated and segregated in order to stop the contamination as well as not to allow the mold spores to spread through the building. This will drastically decrease the chance of permanent damage to your property.
The major problem with mold spores is they can consume your belongings such as furniture, clothes, etc. Basically, anything porous. In fact, if mold is present, your office or home is not safe from mold contamination. Make no mistake! water damage and mold growth go hand in hand to double your troubles.
Allergic reactions, Asthma attack, Ear inflammation, Eye irritation, Fatigue, Headache, Nasal congestion, Runny nose, Sinus infections, Sore throat and many others.
Those that are considered at high risk of symptoms from mold spore exposure are infants, children, pregnant women, elderly people with allergies and individuals with respiratory problems.
Stay out of infested areas and don't touch it with your bare hands. If you suspect that your property is developing mold, call us. We can take samples for a mold test, or can just take care of the problem entirely.

Retired Air Force Major Predicts Ship Sightings at Royal Wedding
Posted by Ram Arjuna on March 31, 2011 at 9:41am
www.aolnews.com/media/2010/12/david-moye.jpg" />
David Moye Contributor
The upcoming royal wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton is expected to be viewed by more than a billion people worldwide -- and possibly a few extraterrestrials, according to at least one former military officer.
George Filer, a retired Air Force major, runs the National UFO Center and says it's common to see Ships around important events.
"The craft seem to have an interest in anything important," Filer told AOL News. "They've been sighted recently over Libya and near the Japanese tsunami."
Some UFO researchers hope that Prince William and Kate Middleton will use the occasion of their April 29 wedding to announce what the British government knows about UFOs.
Filer says his center averages more than 1,000 sightings a month, and he expects to get a few UFO reports from the area surrounding Westminster Abbey, the site of the April 29 wedding.
There are two reasons behind Filer's prediction: In the last few weeks, he's been getting reports from British Royal Air Force pilots who reported seeing UFOs over the English Channel, and, more importantly, he says the royal family is very interested in the UFO phenomenon.
Filer knows this personally because he once had a conversation about UFOs with William's grandfather, Prince Philip.
"It was around 1961 or '62, when I was a navigator in a tanker," Filer said. "He met with a group of us after a dinner because he wanted to talk about UFOs. He told us that the RAF had stopped sending fighters after UFOs because some of them didn't come back.
"They decided to send tankers, which were nearly as fast as the fighters but could hold 15 hours of fuel, compared to two for the fighters."
Filer says the prince also revealed that his interest in UFOs was more than just concerns of national security -- it was personal.
"I asked him why he was so interested in UFOs and he explained that his uncle, the Earl Mountbatten, had seen them up close," Filer said.
Even though the meeting took place during the Cold War, Filer discounts the underlying possibility that the UFOs seen during the period were actually Soviet craft.
"That was always a possibility, but it seemed unlikely since these craft were bigger than expected -- it's like an aircraft carrier in space," he said. "However, the Soviets did try to penetrate the airspace of the United Kingdom and the United States quite regularly."
Britain's Prince Philip reportedly follows the UFO phenomenon very closely.
Filer's account of Prince Philip's UFO interest gets support from Colin Andrews, a renowned investigator of crop circles in Britain during the 1980s. Crop circles -- a term coined by Andrews -- are mysterious patterns, created by the flattening of crops, that many people believe have been created by extraterrestrials.
"The queen even put a book of mine about the subject, called 'Circular Evidence,' on her official summer reading list, the first paranormal book ever included," Andrews told AOL News. "Prince Philip and the queen are particularly interested in the subject. And their interest seems to be based on personal experiences."
Andrews says the queen even sent him a letter confirming that very fact, despite official denials from the British government and the royal family.
"I have numerous documents attesting to that, even though Nick Pope, the head of the UFO project of the Ministry of Defense, publicly stated the queen and the government had no official interest in UFOs," Andrews said. "I believe he was under instruction to make that statement and he later confirmed that during a live interview with the BBC."
Andrews posted the queen's letter on his website but was asked to remove it because it was a "personal" correspondence not meant for public consumption.
"The royal family has not just an interest in UFOs and crop circles, but a great interest," Andrews added. "And that includes Prince Charles and the late Princess Di.
"As for Prince William, I'd be surprised if he wasn't interested as well."
UFO researcher Michael Luckman says Prince Philip's UFO curiosity comes from his uncle, the first Earl of Mountbatten.
"Lord Mountbatten not only had a sighting, but one of his former employees reportedly claimed they saw a craft on [Mountbatten's] estate," Luckman said.
Dan Willis, a Denver genealogist who wrote about Prince Philip in his e-book, "Romanovs in the 20th Century," says that while Mountbatten's sighting was reported extensively in the British press, he wasn't aware of an actual craft -- or that the prince was interested in UFOs himself.
"However, it wouldn't surprise me," Willis told AOL News. "Whatever comes into his mind usually comes out of his mouth, so I can see him talking about this."
UFO sightings is a family tradition, Luckman speculates. He also says Prince Charles was chased by a UFO in 1989 while flying back to Britain from the United States.
Willis says his research shows that the queen has shown interest in crop circles, especially during the 1960s and '70s when they were destroying crops.
"She was even photographed inside a crop circle, but I think her interest was more because this was something that was affecting citizens than her being a real fan," Willis said.
A Buckingham Palace spokesman denied AOL News' interview request on this topic, and Filer isn't surprised.
"Officials at the U.S. government have told me that a head of state will not admit the truth about UFOs unless three or four other heads of state will stand with him," Filer said.
Luckman believes the upcoming royal wedding could be the perfect occasion to make such an announcement.
"I understand if disclosure could be a concern, but if the royal family came through with what they know, it could be a good thing," he said. "I personally feel such an announcement would be a great wedding present to the world."
Although Andrews believes William is just as interested in UFOs as his father and grandfather, he says there is little chance the royal family will make such a disclosure, wedding or not.
"Having knowledge of this phenomenon gives them an edge that can help them maintain power," Andrews said. "Although the royal family has a certain independence that would give credibility to such an announcement, I think if one is made, it is more likely to come through religious sources."

Australian Police Confiscate Cryptocurrency Worth $1 Million With Help From FBI
The Australian Federal Police (AFP) has confirmed that the Supreme Court of New South Wales has ordered the forfeiture of cryptocurrency belonging to a convicted hacker. "The amount of cryptocurrency forfeited, more than $1.2 million, is the largest Commonwealth forfeiture of cryptocurrency," the AFP said.
'Largest Commonwealth Forfeiture of Cryptocurrency'
The Australian Federal Police (AFP) announced Friday that a convicted hacker "has been ordered to forfeit more than $1.66 million [Australian dollars] in cryptocurrency and cash to the Commonwealth."
The 23-year-old Sydney offender pleaded guilty to various criminal offenses in October last year. The AFP-led Criminal Assets Confiscation Taskforce (CACT) "obtained restraining orders over cryptocurrency plus bank and Paypal accounts held in false names, but suspected to be controlled by the man," the AFP explained.
The Supreme Court of New South Wales ordered the forfeiture of his 1.66 million Australian dollars to the Commonwealth Confiscated Assets Account last week, including more than AU$1.2 million (US$902,276) in cryptocurrency. The AFP detailed:
The amount of cryptocurrency forfeited, more than $1.2 million, is the largest Commonwealth forfeiture of cryptocurrency.
The funds will be redistributed by Minister for Home Affairs Karen Andrews to support crime prevention, law enforcement, and community safety-related initiatives, the announcement describes.
The Australian man conspired with a man in the U.S. "to steal the log-ins and passwords of streaming service customers and then sold them online at a cheaper rate," the AFP added. According to reports, the Sydney man's name is Evan McMahon. His accomplice in the U.S. was Samuel Joyner.
The investigation began after the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) referred information to the AFP in May 2018 about an account generator website that sold stolen account details for online subscription services, including Netflix, Spotify, and Hulu.
AFP cybercrime investigators subsequently executed a warrant at the Sydney man's home and seized cryptocurrency and various evidence. He was handed a two year and two month sentence in April.

Thornhill football costs too high
A THORNHILL football team could be kicked out of action because of "unreasonably high costs" to host a game.
Jackie Grant
Morton Thistle Amateur Football Club is being charged £56 for the use of the pitch.
And when other costs, including referee's fees are added, it leaves them with a bill of £90 per match
According to manager Billy Gracie that is nearly four times more than teams in Dumfries are charged.
And he had warned that the club could be forced to give Thornhill the red card if the charges aren't reduced.
He said: "If we have to pay this amount of money every time we have a home game, we won't be able to play here any more. Morton Thistle is a Thornhill team and has been going for more than 40 years, so it would be a real shame if we can't play there.
"It costs £18 to play on a park in Dumfries but we are being quoted £56. On top of that, we also have to pay for a referee as well as the costs of washing the strips. I don't think any amateur team could afford that.
"While the new Wallace Hall school was being built and the pitch was unavailable, we had to play our games in Dumfries, and we got a lot of hassle from local people because we weren't playing in Thornhill."
Mr Gracie, who has been involved with Morton Thistle for 26 years, says to continue playing on the new pitch, he would have to charge the players £10 each.
"I'm not prepared to do that," he said. "It's ridiculous that Amey can dictate whatever charges they want just because it is a private company. If it costs £18 to play in Dumfries, it should cost the same everywhere else.
Thornhill butcher Iain Renicks, whose late father John formed the club in the 1960s with Norman Marchbank, said: "The club means a lot to the village and this could drive them out of Thornhill.
"It would be sad to see the team forced to play in Dumfries. Before the new school was built, the football pitch was always considered to be for the community.
"The team has come up against unreasonably high costs, even though we were reassured that the village would still have the facility as we previously did."
However, a spokeswoman for Amey Highways, which is responsible for "ensuring that the school facility is available for members of the public to use", insisted that costs are set by the council.
She said: "Amey as the service provider is instructed by the council which lets are to be held and make arrangements for these to be facilitated. We do not dictate or have any influence on let rates."
A council spokeswoman said: "The community of Thornhill has access to the pitch and the other school facilities, such as changing rooms, in exactly the same way that communities can access any other school in Dumfries and Galloway. The costs of this are set by the council and are standardised across the region."

If someone unfamiliar with the state of education reform in this country were to watch this little lovefest with Stephanopoulis and Michelle Rhee, they might be left with the conclusion that she's a Democrat with a hunger to fix the schools, a radical reformer who independently decided she would take her mighty years of experience with DC Schools and carry the message to the masses.
STEPHANOPOULOS: We've also seen that there's been a backlash, though, against how we assess how schools and teachers are doing. Just this week, teachers in Seattle saying we're not going to go forward with these standardized tests anymore. A lot of parents resisting it, as well.
There's an exchange just begging for a follow-up question, right? What does "strike a balance" mean? And how is it credible for Michelle Rhee to claim there's a need to strike a balance when she is the queen of using test results to denigrate schools and teachers across the nation?
Of course, the purpose of the interview was to let her pimp her new book, which comes out tomorrow. That would be the same book where she uses a non-profit organization (StudentsFirst) funded by the likes of Rupert Murdoch and the DeVos family to push her brand of "Rhee-form" -- privatization of our public school system.
It still doesn't let GSteph off the hook. Even in this New York Times interview, the question of the cheating scandal came up to at least remind people that Rhee's career and subsequent fame has come via scandal, not substance.
It aggravates me that this woman is involved at any level in our debate over improving public schools --not only because I don't agree with her on a policy level, but because she is pushing the message of the right-wing school reformers who see public education as a money tree waiting to be shaken.
This is a woman who believes teachers are not professionals and can therefore be replaced with bright-eyed future hedge fund managers who serve a couple of years and move on. She believes classrooms can be sardined with sixty students and one good teacher and learning will happen. Forget student safety or any semblance of individual instruction. Just plop those kids down and crank up the 'structured learning programs' developed by companies that ask questions about pineapples and rabbits and it'll all be good. The test scores will prove it!
GSteph could have asked Rhee what she thought about Jeb Bush and ALEC's involvement in promoting privatization interests in Florida. That would have been revealing. But he didn't.
Instead, he served as her Rhee-seller. When does media stop giving this woman a pass and start looking at what she is really trying to do to public education in this country?

Alabama uniform history
Brad Crawford | 7 years ago
Don't mess with tradition.
Alabama's classic crimson and white uniform is one of college football's most iconic looks, free of flashy accents and helmet options that has defined the uniform era over the last decade. The lack of pizzazz is what makes the Crimson Tide's sets so unique, Penn State or Michigan-like in their traditional, recognizable appearance.
Alabama's current crimson helmet with white numerals and a gray facemask was introduced in 1960 and has been the gameday staple since, paired with the team's familiar all-white road combination or crimson jerseys at home. In 1971, the Crimson Tide officially retired their white helmets which had been worn various times during the 1950s and 1960s. They were re-introduced for a couple of games during the 1983 and 1984 seasons.
Alabama's gameday pants, white with two crimson stripes, first appeared in 1958, just before Joe Namath arrived on campus a few years later. Ironically, player names weren't added on the backs of jerseys until the 1981 campaign.
Prior to the inaugural College Football Playoff last season, Nike updated the four participating teams' uniforms with a diamond-jeweled swoosh and a new Mach Speed baselayer. Alabama's minor makeover was its first apparel change in several years, joining a special 2012 BCS National Championship Game ensemble and a Pro Combat 'houndstooth' alternate in 2010.
The Crimson Tide signed a seven-year extension with Nike in 2010, making it the most lucrative Nike deal in college sports. Alabama is sporting the swoosh at least until 2018. Valued at $30 million in cash, Alabama surpassed previous Nike leader North Carolina on a deal that pays out $3.75 million annually.

Download, read, and make notes from the Lesson PowerPoint.
Then read pages 47-56 of Lynch, M. (2016). Access to History: China 1839-1997.
Research and write down historical details about that cause including dates, events, names, places etc to help explain how that cause contributed to revolution.
Decide upon the content, time, role, and importance of each cause and write in each box.
Once you have finished, cut out all 8 causes. Arrange them in a diamond 9 formation to show what you think is the most important to the least important cause.
Next, arrange the cards on your desk. Draw an arrow to link each of the causes. Try to identify at least three links between causes and explain how they are linked.
Finally, in no more than 500 words, write an explanation on 'what were the main causes of the 1911 Revolution?'. Make sure your explanation refers to at least 3 causes, and links them together. You may like to think about which causes were preconditions, which were catalysts, and which triggered the event.
How could the Qing government have avoided the revolution?
How would you describe the importance of Sun Yat-sen to the revolution?
Which factors would the following perspectives focus on as reasons for the 1911 Revolution?
