Coordinated rescue of stricken motor vessel
WITHIN the Gulf of Aden, piracy is a significant threat to the shipping community and a stricken Motor Vessel (MV) would make easy prey. When a MV recently suffered engine failure and lost all propulsion in the region, a Japanese maritime patrol aircraft and warships from South Korea, China, India, Italy and Japan were quick to provide coordinated assistance and protection to avoid any risk to the vessel and her crew.
To ensure merchant ships sail through this region safely, an International Recognised Transit Corridor (IRTC) has been established under the protection of warships from Combined Maritime Forces (CMF), EU, NATO and other independent deployers from India, China, Russia, South Korea and Japan.
The stricken motor vessel at sea in the Gulf of Aden
ROKS Wang Geon as the closest warship to the stricken MV was first on the scene. ROKS Wang Geon is currently operating under the Combined Task Force (CTF) 151, whose mission is to deter, disrupt and thwart acts of piracy.
This multinational task force conducts counter-piracy operations in and around the Gulf of Aden, Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean and the Red Sea and would always respond to environmental and humanitarian crises including Safety of Life at Sea emergencies.
ROKS Wang Geon provided maritime protection whilst technical specialists from her crew carried out repairs to the defective engine. Once able to move under her own power, albeit at a slower pace than normal, the MV was escorted safely through the IRTC. Escort duties where handed over to ITS Zeffiro, who later handed over the responsibility to PLAN Hengshui, who escorted the MV safely into the port of Aden, Yemen.
Captain Young-Hee Han, Commanding Officer ROKS Wang Geon, said, "With regard to the support we were able to offer the MV, it was the active collaboration and information sharing amongst CMF and other coalition forces that coordinated the effort to escort the motor vessel to her next destination. I believe that this occasion served as an opportunity to strengthen further the friendly relations amongst coalition forces operating in this maritime domain."
The Commanding Officer from the MV said, "All my crew would like to thank you for your swift response, best intentions and hugely appreciated escort and also the excellent support whilst we were repairing the engine."
He added "We take this opportunity to thank you for your assistance during the incident."
Commodore Keith Blount, Royal Navy, Deputy Commander Combined Maritime Forces, said, "A few years ago that stricken vessel would have been an easy victim for piracy. It is through the close coordination of warships and military aircraft from CMF, EU, and NATO, together with the independent deployers and industry, that we have provided an enduring presence in the region and ensured that the maritime environment is a much safer place for mariners to conduct their legitimate business."

Fundamental Motor Skills and Literacy is an innovative and engaging resource combining the teaching of critical formative skills in the areas of literacy and motor skill development. It uses entertaining rhymes and chants to create an integrated approach to learning. Four fundamental motor skills – run, catch, jump and kick – are covered. Each has rhymes that address various components of the skill. The rhymes are set to traditional melodies, with some original and some modified traditional rhymes included. They have been designed to be read, chanted or sung. Skill components are introduced in the recommended sequence of instruction. Teacher notes, key teaching points and safety information are all included, and all the shared reading activities, literacy activities and student worksheets for literacy sessions are related to the rhymes and physical activities. Included in this essential resource are two CDs, one containing audio tracks with rhymes and tunes, and another containing printable files for student worksheets.


Horseshoe Bend was unable to travel for the Tri-county basketball tournament at the last minute and the annual event became a three-team round robin late Friday. The Cleburne County girls defeated Ranburne 51-42 in their first game Saturday then won the tournament with a 57-32 victory over Clay Central later Saturday.
The Tigers trailed Ranburne 24-19 at halftime then limited the Bulldogs to four points in the third quarter to get back into the game. Chelsea Parker led Cleburne County in scoring with 14 points and on the boards with eight rebounds. Olivia McDaniel scored 10 points, Kendall Houston nine, Brooklyn McDaniel seven, Haven Freeman four, Tatiana Ervin three, Alex Casey two and Micah Pentecost two. Ervin led in steals with four and Casey had three. Ervin and Parker each had three assists.
Against Clay Central, Pentecost led with 10 points.
The Tigers lost to White Plains 35-32 in overtime Monday. In what coach Todd Gable described as an "ugly" game, Cleburne County downed Lincoln 36-18 Tuesday. Lincoln led 9-7 at halftime.

Arduino Pro Mini powers this Pac-Man festival totem
Build your own life-size, multipurpose robot with Arduino
Arduino Team — June 9th, 2016
If you've always wanted a bot for a friend, personal assistant or butler, you're in luck. John Choi, a Carnegie Mellon University computer science and arts student, has managed to build his own life-size robotics platform for about $2,000. Sure, a price tag like that may not seem "cheap" but in comparison to other research-grade platforms out there, it's a bargain.
Ideal for Makers, students, educators, artists and researchers alike, the Multipurpose Mobile Manipulator Mk 1 is capable of playing the piano, drawing pictures, preparing meals, watering plants, and engaging in toy sword duels, among many other things.
The Multipurpose Mobile Manipulator is divided into three major parts: the base, the arms, and the chest. The base contains motors for mobility and batteries to power the robot, enabling it to navigate around. The arms contain adaptable grippers, shoulder and elbow joints, and an extensible limb for grabbing and moving things with its environment. Meanwhile, the chest connects all of these together with control electronics and serves as a platform for an intelligent laptop-for-a-face. An Arduino Mega at its heart makes interfacing with sensors and actuators super easy, while the robot's functionality can also be expanded by simply attaching new electronics and sensors to its mounting areas.
The open-source platform is compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux, and supports Python 2.7 and Arduino libraries. According to Choi, libraries for Unity, Processing, ROS, MATLAB, C++, and Scratch are also in the works.
Those interested in building their own should check out Choi's incredibly-detailed 80-step tutorial, and watch the robot take on some tasks below. Prepare to be amazed!

Presidential Election 1999 - Free & Fair?
"In the run-up to the presidential elections since nominations on 16 November and during elections, over 1,590 violent incidents were reported despite the deployment of 75,000 police and 25,000 troops. This included 54 murders, 30 attempted murders, arson, injury and damage to property.
According to election monitoring agency, the People�s Action for Free and Fair Elections (PAFFREL), 900 complaints of election violations were received. The Centre for Monitoring Election Violence (CMEV) says that in 59 of the 161 electoral divisions, the results had been irredeemably compromised by systematic impersonation, ballot stuffing, violence, intimidation of voters and abuse of state machinery and resources.
A circular letter from the Youth Affairs minister had required all Samurthi (poverty alleviation programme) workers to participate in the election campaign of the ruling People�s Alliance.
The CMEV adds that the entire election in the north-east province should be nullified as the minimum conditions to ensure free and fair vote were unavailable. According to the Colombo agency, 200 polling centres in the north-east were removed from the poll without warning or adequate alternative arrangement.
Throughout the election campaign, the government and the government-controlled media had been hostile to the election monitoring agencies. Reports say that the state�s External Resources Agency blocked funding by the Asia Foundation to CMEV for election monitoring. Lord Meghnad Desai, the leader of observers from Commonwealth nations said on 24 December that the election was free and fair. But the team also submitted 18 recommendations for conducting free and fair elections in the future. These include the appointment of an independent Elections Commissioner." - British Refugee Council publication Sri Lanka Monitor - December 1999

Afro-Colombian Feminist Group in Colombia
AFROMUPAZ is normally an Afro-descendant feminist group that may be straddling the lines between popular and radical feminism. The group can be rooted inside the Afro-Colombian ethnicity and shows the ordinaire experiences of racial discrimination and oppression. It is activities, nevertheless , will be inconsistent along with the radical dreams of other Afro-descendant feminist corporations. This article analyzes the AFROMUPAZ organization in relation to other https://www.theverge.com/2018/10/25/18015556/dating-apps-how-to-succeed-profile-pic-message-send Afro-descendant feminist groups in addition to the larger context of gendered violent pluralism in Colombia.
Afro-Colombians are between the lowest amount of privileged populations in Colombia and continue to be disadvantaged. Afro-Colombians are two times as likely to suffer infant fatality and two times as likely to go through hunger. In addition, Afro-Colombians are underrepresented in business and http://www.kulturnatta.no/2020/12/24/simple-relationship-tips-and-advice-for-permanent-success/ governmental policies. They are also refused access to specified places. In a recent survey, the Institucion do colombian women like americans Franquista de Catalogo Historica located that erectile physical violence against Afro-Colombian women sustains colonial procedures of domination.
According to the Centro Internacional de Evocación Historala, sexual assault against Afro-Colombian females sustains the centuries-old colonial routines of domination, which places Afro-Colombians in the status of lesser human beings. This physique is based on hegemonic discourses that place Afro-Colombians in the position as savages, uncivilized, and socially disadvantaged.
Afro-Colombians are generally the subjects of elegance for decades. Nowadays, Afro-Colombians have been involved with national protests. In one new example, Marquez led a bunch of 80 Afro-Colombian women to protest the presence of outlawed miners in their community. This kind of march, which has been known as the Walk of the Turbans, was named after the African inspired head dress donned by the ladies. They came about 300 miles to focus on the damage of their community by golden mining. The us government then relented and decided to evict the against the law miners.
Marquez was a cleaning service15342 when your lover was a teenager, and she committed her your life to environmental activism. She's been granted the Goldman Environmental Prize on her behalf work. Her advocacy has resulted in an arising of identity among the Afro-Colombian masses. She has also attended to issues such as the quality of public education and unemployment. She has a degree in law from your University of Cali. Despite as being a single mom, Marquez surely could complete her studies and obtained a law level. Marquez's advocacy in addition has led to the protection belonging to the Afro-Colombian community and rights.
Afro-descendant women certainly are a group that has been marginalized in Colombia for quite some time. They have also suffered attacks and loss of life threats. Within a recent survey, the Centro National de Cronaca Historala identified that sexual assault against Afro-Colombian woman is a major issue that continues to persist. Afro-Colombians are also an organization that has been subject to sex-related violence, which is considered a variety of domination by simply some feminist organizations.
AFROMUPAZ is the simply group of Afro-descendant women which has been allowed to operate for workplace in the future presidential selection. Marquez is the vice usa president candidate on the leftist Historic Pact party ticket. Your lady won 800, 000 ballots in Mar, and could become Colombia's first Dark-colored vice president. In the event elected, she is going to be sworn in with Gustavo Petro, just who may be the president-elect.


The word was made flesh so that He might be a man among men, so that men might bind Him to the Cross, and be redeemed by Him. He was born from the womb of a woman from the chosen people not simply that He might teach the gospel of Love but also that He might undergo that martyrdom.
It was needful that all be unforgettable. The death of a man by sword or hemlock was not sufficient to leave a wound on the imagination of mankind until the end of days. The Lord disposed that the events should inspire pathos.
As an on again, off again atheist (or opportunistic believer) and a lapsed member of the INC (with its very human Jesus), I'm surprised at how defensive I feel each time I read yet another negative review of Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ. Oozing with condescension, these reviews seem to imply that audiences were at best too blinded by faith to evaluate the film reasonably and at worst were drawn to the film less out of piety and more to indulge their pleasures, both guilty and perverse. Fascist snuff film or prelude to another Holocaust, small wonder that, like Ainsley Hayes in The West Wing, I felt that no matter how legitimate their critiques may have been, the film's reviewers simply didn't "like the people," those less clever, less urbane Americans "of faith." Thus the snarky put downs buried underneath the history lessons and scriptural exegesis that found their way in the arts and leisure sections of major American newspapers. To think that one film could inspire this burst of interdisciplinary scholarship!
Now I do not love my Southern Baptist neighbor as I love myself. Nor am I so humorless to be unable to appreciate a perfectly good insult. What really bothered me about reviewers like David Denby, Christopher Hitchens, Leon Wieseltier, Katha Pollitt and others was their almost religious reliance on long-ago deconstructed concepts to bolster their claims. Unlike Mel Gibson and his Left Behind-reading, George W. Bush-voting admirers, they stood on the side of reason rather than passion, on history rather than belief, on unvarnished truth rather than dogma. But by bowing down before such ideas, they inadvertently exposed the impossibility of inhabiting a purely secular, completely disenchanted space. After all, even the most dialectical materialist cannot live without hopes and dreams that do not stand to reason. Indeed this unreason may just be religion's saving grace. Ironic detachment may rescue the world from the excesses of fundamentalism but passionate attachment may yet help us move beyond the way we live now.

Weighing Intellectual Property: Can We Balance the Social Costs and Benefits of Patenting?

The scale is the most famous emblem of the law, including intellectual property (IP). Because IP rights impose social costs on the public by limiting access to protected work, the law can be justified only to the extent that, on balance, it encourages enough creation and dissemination of new works to offset those costs. The scale is thus a potent rhetorical trope of fairness and objectivity, but also an instrument the law thinks with — one that is constantly invoked to justify or to question the extent of available IP protection. The balancing act that underlies the legitimacy of IP is, however, literally impossible to perform. Because we are unable to measure the benefits that IP has for inventors or the costs it has for the public, the scale has nothing to weigh. It conveys a clear sense that IP law can be balanced, but in fact propagates only a visible simulacrum of balance — one that is as empty as it is powerful.

Why is it important to check your coverage?
About 60% of homes are insured for an average of 20% less than their full home value, according to analytics firm CoreLogic. The issue is compounded by the fact that your home value—and the cost to replace your home—can go up over time. That means if your home was a total loss—from a fire or another natural disaster—you wouldn't get enough money from your insurance company to rebuild it in full.
Inertia is a powerful force. When policies come up for renewal, only 44% of homeowners comparison shop, according to the Insurance Information Institute (III). And only 17% compare prices online. A NerdWallet survey found that 38% of Americans with car insurance haven't checked the price or compared costs in at least three years. If you're a good driver, you could be missing out on more than $400 per year in savings by not researching your car insurance before renewing, the survey found. And that's only one of your insurance policies.
What coverage do you have? Does your policy provide for Actual Cash Value (ACV) replacement in the event of damage or Replacement Cost? What are your liability limits? What does your policy provide for medical payments in the event that someone is injured on your property?
Do you have enough coverage? Given current property values and construction costs, are you still insured for enough to rebuild your home in the event of a total loss? Are you insured for enough to cover the contents of your home? Have you done a home inventory? Do you have coverage for any particularly expensive things in your home, such as jewelry, artwork or collectibles?
Do your deductibles still work for you? If you increase your deductible, you can sometimes save on total cost of the policy. Are there any discounts you could be receiving?
Are there any discounts you could be receiving? Sometimes tweaks to your home—such as installing a security system—can result in insurance savings.
Are there any events that could affect your home that aren't covered by your policy? If you live in an area that experiences severe weather or similar events, such as earthquakes or high water, ask whether you need supplemental coverage.
Could you get the same coverage for less? Call at least three insurers or a broker who can do a comparison for you to make sure you're still getting the best rate.
Could you raise your deductible to save money? If you can afford a higher deductible on auto incidents, your premiums may go down.
Are there any discounts you could be receiving? Are you using your car for a short commute only, or are you eligible for a good driver discount?
Do you have too much coverage? On an older car, it may be more cost-effective to drop some insurance—such as collision coverage—since in the event of an accident, you may opt to simply buy a new car. Consider how much the car is worth (what the insurance company would pay in the event of an accident) and whether that payout would be worth what you're paying for collision coverage.
Could you get the same coverage for less? As with homeowners, call around to compare policies, or do both at the same time; you can frequently get a discount for buying both home and auto policies from the same company.
Do you need an umbrella policy? Experts generally recommend that if you're earning money, you have an umbrella policy of at least $1 million (that's where most policies start) to cover you in the rare event that someone sues you. These are policies that kick in after you've used all liability insurance in your home or auto policies, and they're generally inexpensive. (About $150 to $300 for $1 million in coverage.) A note: Many insurance companies will require that you purchase both home and auto from them before they'll sell you an umbrella policy since the umbrella kicks in where home and auto coverage end.
Do you have life insurance? If you're married, have a child, have a mortgage or generally have debt that would fall to someone else if something happened to you, you should have life coverage. Experts recommend you aim for 10 to 12 times your income in coverage, but your needs may vary. Try our calculator to determine the right amount for you. For most people, a term life insurance policy will be the cheapest way to cover your needs.
Do you have enough life insurance? If you've had another kid since you first purchased or experienced other big life changes, you may need additional coverage. (After all, each kid resets the college clock again.) You can buy an additional amount of insurance or trade in your old coverage for a larger policy.
Unsure of what choices to make? A financial planner can also help you complete a personal insurance checkup to determine if you're fully covered for everything.


Oh, man, I love tulips. They are my favorite!! But they great thing about these tags is that you can use them for any bunch of flowers you love, including some from your own yard, if you're so lucky!
Flowers are an easy and thoughtful way to really brighten someone's day, or say thank you to a person that's helped you in some way. You don't have to spend a lot of money–this bunch of tulips was only $6 at my local grocery store! This would be a great gift for teacher appreciation week too!
Could I pretty please beg you to make a neighbor tag? We just moved into our new neighborhood and feel like one that says neighbor would fit us better? I'd love to give these to a few of them. You're so talented!
You are seriously the best! Thank you so much for doing that for me! I can't wait to give them away.
These are so adorable. I give flowers from the garden as gifts all summer long and will definitely be using these tags. Thanks!
What fonts did you use? I love this!
Thank you! I used Futura Medium and Stylish Brush!!
This is adorable. I'm always looking for something sweet to give the bus drivers I work with. Perfect! Thank you!

Nettie Maria Stevens (July 7, 1861 – May 4, 1912)[1] was an American geneticist who discovered sex chromosomes. In 1905, soon after the rediscovery of Mendel's paper on genetics in 1900, she observed that male mealworms produced two kinds of sperm, one with a large chromosome and one with a small chromosome. When the sperm with the large chromosome fertilized eggs, they produced female offspring, and when the sperm with the small chromosome fertilized eggs, they produced male offspring.[2] The pair of sex chromosomes that she studied later became known as the X and Y chromosomes.[2][2][3][4]
Nettie Maria Stevens was born on July 7, 1861, in Cavendish, Vermont, to Julia (née Adams) and Ephraim Stevens. In 1863, after the death of her mother, her father remarried and the family moved to Westford, Massachusetts.[2][5] Her father worked as a carpenter and earned enough money to provide Nettie and her sister, Emma, with a strong education through high school.
During her education, Stevens was near the top of her class. She and her sister Emma were 2 of the 3 women to graduate from Westford Academy between 1872 and 1883. After graduating in 1880, Stevens moved to Lebanon, New Hampshire to teach high school zoology, physiology, mathematics, English, and Latin. After three years, she returned to Vermont to continue her studies. Stevens continued her education at Westfield Normal School (now Westfield State University) She completed the four-year course in two years and graduated with the highest scores in her class.[2] Seeking additional training in sciences, in 1896, Stevens enrolled in newly established Stanford University, where she received her B.A. in 1899 and her M.A. in biology in 1900.[2] She became increasingly focused on histology after completing one year of graduate work in physiology under Oliver Peebles Jenkins and his former student, and assistant professor, Frank Mace MacFarland.[5][2]
After studying physiology and histology at Stanford, Stevens enrolled in Bryn Mawr College to pursue her Ph.D. in cytology. She focused her doctoral studies on topics such as regeneration in primitive multicellular organisms, the structure of single celled organisms, the development of sperm and eggs, germ cells of insects, and cell division in sea urchins and worms. During her graduate studies at Bryn Mawr, Stevens was named a President's European Fellow and spent a year (1901–02) at the Zoological Station in Naples, Italy, where she worked with marine organisms, and at the Zoological Institute of the University of Würzburg, Germany. Returning to the United States, her Ph.D. advisor was the geneticist Thomas Hunt Morgan.[2] In addition, Stevens' experiments were influenced by the work of the previous head of the biology department, Edmund Beecher Wilson, who had moved to Columbia University in 1891.[2] Stevens received her Ph.D. from Bryn Mawr in 1903 and remained at the college as a research fellow in biology for a year. She continued there as reader in experimental morphology for another year and worked at Bryn Mawr as an associate in experimental morphology from 1905 until her death.[5] She was offered the position she had long sought, as research professor at Bryn Mawr College, just before cancer took her life. She was unable to accept the offer due to her ill health.[2][5]
After receiving her Ph.D. from Bryn Mawr, Stevens was awarded a research assistantship at the Carnegie Institute of Washington in 1904–1905. Stevens' post-doctoral year of work at the Carnegie Institution required fellowship support, and both Wilson and Morgan wrote recommendations on her behalf. She applied for funding for research on heredity related to Mendel's laws,[2] specifically sex determination. After receiving the grant, she used germ cells of aphids to examine possible differences in chromosome sets between the two sexes. One paper, written in 1905,[6] won Stevens an award of $1,000 [2] for the best scientific paper written by a woman. Her major sex determination work was published by the Carnegie Institution of Washington in the two part monograph, "Studies in Spermatogenesis," [7] which highlighted her increasingly promising focus of sex-determination studies and chromosomal inheritance.[2] In 1908, Stevens received the Alice Freeman Palmer Fellowship from the Association of Collegiate Alumnae, now the American Association of University Women.[8] During that fellowship year, Stevens again conducted research at the Naples Zoological Station and the University of Würzburg, in addition to visiting laboratories throughout Europe.[9]
Nettie Stevens's microscope, Bryn Mawr College
Stevens was one of the first American women to be recognized for her contribution to science. Most of her research was completed at Bryn Mawr College. The highest rank she attained was Associate in Experimental Morphology (1905–1912).[5] At Bryn Mawr, she expanded the fields of genetics, cytology, and embryology.[2]
Although Stevens did not have a university position, she made a career for herself by conducting research at leading marine stations and laboratories. Her record of 38 publications includes several major contributions that further the emerging concepts of chromosomal heredity. By experimenting on germ cells, Stevens interpreted her data to conclude that chromosomes have a role in sex determination during development. As a result of her research, Stevens provided critical evidence for Mendelian and chromosomal theories of inheritance.[2]
Using observations of insect chromosomes, Stevens discovered that, in some species, chromosomes are different between the sexes and when chromosome segregation occurs in sperm formation, this difference leads to outcomes of female versus male progeny. Her discovery was the first time that observable differences of chromosomes could be linked to an observable difference in phenotype or physical attributes (i.e., whether an individual is male or female). This work was published in 1905.[6] Her continuing experiments used a range of insects.[7] She identified the small chromosome currently known as the Y chromosome in the mealworm Tenebrio. She deduced that the chromosomal basis of sex depended on the smaller Y chromosome carried by the male. An egg fertilized by a sperm that carries the small chromosome becomes a male while an egg fertilized by a sperm with the larger chromosome becomes female.[7] Studying egg tissue and the fertilization process in aphids, mealworms, beetles, and flies, Stevens saw that there were chromosomes that existed in small-large pairs (now known as XY chromosome pairs) and she also saw chromosomes that were unpaired, XO.[2][7] Hermann Henking had studied firebug chromosomes earlier and noticed the chromosome now called X, but didn't find the small chromosome now called Y. Stevens realized that the previous idea of Clarence Erwin McClung, that the X chromosome determines sex, was wrong and that sex determination is, in fact, due to the presence or absence of the small (Y) chromosome.[2][10][11] Stevens did not name the chromosomes X or Y. Their current names came later.[12][13] Edmund Wilson worked on spermatogenesis preparations simultaneously with Stevens' studies.[14] He performed cytological examination only on the testes, that is he did not examine the female germ cells (eggs) but only the male germ cells (sperm) in his studies. His paper stated that eggs were too fatty for his staining procedures. After reading the papers describing Stevens' discoveries, Wilson reissued his original paper and in a footnote acknowledged Stevens for the finding of sex chromosomes.[2]
At Bryn Mawr, following her 1905–06 publications, Stevens bred and studied Drosophila melanogaster fruit flies in the laboratory. She worked with these as subjects of her research for some years before Morgan adopted them as his model organism.[15]
Sex determination
Although Stevens and Wilson both worked on chromosomal sex determination, many authors have credited Wilson alone for the discovery.[2] Additionally, Thomas Hunt Morgan has been credited with the discovery of sex chromosomes although at the time of these cytological discoveries, he argued against Wilson's and Stevens' interpretations. Morgan's recognition came in part from his work on sex linkage of the white mutant gene of fruit flies and was especially heightened by his Nobel Prize award in 1933. Stevens was not even recognized immediately after her discovery. For example, Morgan and Wilson were invited to speak at a conference to present their theories on sex determination in 1906 but Stevens was not invited to speak.[2]
Following Nettie Stevens' death, Thomas Hunt Morgan wrote an extensive obituary for the journal Science.[16] In that article, Morgan said she had "a share in a discovery of importance." [16] He continued in the obituary to describe in some detail the implications of this work. However, Morgan also claimed that she had confirmed McClung's hypothesis about sex chromosomes [16] when she actually refuted his main claim that the larger (X) chromosome determined sex.[7] Morgan recognized Wilson's parallel but less complete and convincing studies [14] as producing a "joint discovery" with Stevens.[16] But Wilson said in a later footnote that she made the discovery.[9][12] Also, Morgan claimed Stevens seemed to "appear at times wanting in that sort of inspiration that utilizes the plain fact of discovery for wider vision." [16] Apparently, Morgan was forgetting the fact that she was often excluded from scientific dialogue, for example she was not invited to speak at the meetings where he and Wilson expounded the theory of sex chromosomes.[2] In his textbook, The Mechanism of Genetics, published in 1915, he did not credit either Stevens or Wilson with the discovery of sex chromosomes.[17] He described sex linkage of the white gene in the chapter immediately before the one in which he described Stevens' results without mentioning her name, implying that his own laboratory's sex linkage analysis was the basis on which one should understand sex determination. In an earlier letter of recommendation he wrote, "Of the graduate students that I have had during the last twelve years I have had no-one that was as capable and independent in research as Miss Stevens."[10]
At 50 years old, and only 9 years after completing her Ph.D., Stevens died of breast cancer on May 4, 1912, in Baltimore, Maryland. Her career span was short, but she published approximately 40 papers.[15] She never married and had no children.[18] She was buried in the Westford, Massachusetts cemetery alongside the graves of her father, Ephraim, and her sister, Emma.[11][19]
Her single-mindedness and devotion, combined with keen powers of observation; her thoughtfulness and patience, united to a well-balanced judgment, account, in part, for her remarkable accomplishment.
—  Thomas Hunt Morgan, in an obituary note following Stevens's death in 1912[20]
Modern cytological work involves an intricacy of detail, the significance of which can be appreciated by the specialist alone; but Miss Stevens had a share in a discovery of importance, and her work will be remembered for this, when the minutiae of detailed investigations that she carried out have become incorporated in the general body of the subject.
—  Thomas Hunt Morgan, following Stevens's death in 1912 (The Scientific Work of Miss N. M. Stevens. Science, Vol. 36 (No. 928), October, 1912)[20]
In 1994, Stevens was inducted into the National Women's Hall of Fame.[21]
To celebrate her 155th birthday, on July 7, 2016, Google created a doodle showing Stevens peering through a microscope at XY chromosomes.
On May 5, 2017, Westfield State University honored Stevens through the naming ceremony of the Dr. Nettie Maria Stevens Science and Innovation Center. The center is where the university's STEM-related degree programs in Nursing and Allied Health, Chemical and Physical Sciences, Biology, Environmental Science and the then soon-to-be launched master's degree program in Physician Assistant Studies are all based.[22]

Kenny Chesney coming to American Family Field May 2022
Posted: Nov 1, 2021 8:13 AM CST
MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Kenny Chesney's Here and Now 2022 Tour will make a stop in Milwaukee in the spring of 2022.
Chesney will headline American Family Field with guests Dan + Shay, Old Dominion and Carly Pearce.
Tickets are on sale now, and a limited number of specially priced tickets are available for purchase through Friday, Nov. 5, 2021.
The show comes after previous shows were canceled in 2020 and 2021. Previously purchased tickets for the Kenny Chesney postponed concerts remain valid.
This will mark the fifth time that Chesney will perform at American Family Field and the fourth time that he will headline here. Chesney performed in Farm Aid's 25th anniversary concert in 2010 and has rocked the house during his No Shoes Nation Tour in 2013, Spread the Love Tour in 2016 and most recently his Trip Around the Sun Tour in 2018.
You can purchase tickets for the concert here!


Cymatic Sun is a projected artwork that translates sound into a visual experience through water reflections. A large parabolic mirror, acting as both vessel and optic, is filled with water and vibrated with a transducer that plays both audible and subsonic frequencies. These sound waves propagate through the water to form cymatic patterns that when illuminated, refract light to create real-time projections.

"There is nothing to compare with the courage of ordinary people whose names are unknown and whose sacrifices pass unnoticed. The courage that dares without recognition, without the protection of media attention, is a courage that humbles and inspires and reaffirms our faith in humanity" – Aung San Sung Kyi.
We invite all students, teachers, workers, writers, intellectuals, activists and friends of varied walks of life to listen to the heroic struggles and woes of our people threatened by 'development'. Meet representatives from several people's movements in the cause of protecting their land and lives! You are invited to the people's struggle for sovereignty, sustainability!
Our team visited different places in last three days. Our aim is to invite activists to come to a common agenda and platform to pressurize state. We thought of organising a big programme in Hyderabad in December with all the movements who are raising voice against this so called development and displacing their lives and villages. We visited Vizag Coastal corridor struggle groups, Gangavaram port Matsyakarula Ikya vedika, Girijana Sangam Araku, fighting against Jindal Bauxite mining, Rayavani Palem, Bauxite Vyatireka Porata Committee, Vizianagarm district.

About CogNovo
Tara starts new position at Open University
Tara Zaksaite has recently been awarded a PhD in Experimental Psychology for the thesis "The Redundancy Effect in Human Causal Learning: Attention, Uncertainty, And Inhibition". Her PhD work explored the basis of the redundancy effect, an effect related to learning about redundant information in human causal learning. The redundancy effect refers to greater causal ratings observed for one type of a redundant cue (the blocked cue), than for a different type of a redundant cue (the uncorrelated cue). An example of a redundancy effect would be greater ratings for X than for Y in a design A+/AX+/BY+/CY- (where different letters represent different cues, + refers to the outcome, and - refers to no outcome). For example if this design was embedded in an allergist task, then food A, foods A and X together, and foods B and Y together would be shown as causing an allergic reaction, while foods C and Y together would cause no allergic reaction. It has previously been found that when presented with this design, participants indicate that food X causes an allergic reaction to a greater extent than food Y, contrary to the predictions of notable models of learning (e. g. Rescorla & Wagner, 1972). The findings of her PhD research indicated that the redundancy effect is due to contributions of participants' uncertainty about the blocked cue X and a lack of inhibition associated with cue C.
Tara is currently doing a post-doc at the Open University. She is exploring the impact of a financial education course. This involves working across different streams of research, including trying to underpin the psychological mechanisms associated with people's saving beheaviour, collecting quantitative and qualitative data, and working with non-academic partners to assess the effects of the intervention on real-life outcomes.
Tara is interested in how she can apply research into the mechanisms of learning and attention to every-day behaviours and outcomes.

This image from Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) shows a spiral galaxy NGC 5917, perhaps best known for its intriguing interactions with its neighboring galaxy MCG-01-39-003 (not visible here, but located off the bottom right of the frame—as seen here).
Mass is often confused with weight, but they are very different things. Mass is the very substance of an object and is something one always has, no matter the location. If you fly to the Moon and experience low-gravity conditions, your mass has not changed at all. What has actually changed is your weight, because weight is a force caused by the gravitational attraction of another massive body. Gravity is how objects with mass "talk" to one another. People do weigh less on the Moon, but not because they have lost any body mass—the mass of the Moon is less than that of the Earth, so it exerts a smaller gravitational pull on them.
Understanding mass is vital when it comes to understanding why objects behave the way they do in space. Without mass "talking" via gravity, the planets would not orbit the Sun, and galaxies would not interact as NGC 5917 does with its neighbor. Galaxy interactions can lead to very interesting effects; the galaxies can steal mass—in form of stars, dust and gas—from one another, distort and warp one another's shape, or trigger immense waves of new star formation. Sometimes, a galactic duo interact so strongly that they end up colliding and merging completely. Unfortunately, if NGC 5917 is destined to merge with its celestial neighbour, it will happen much too far into the future for us to enjoy the spectacle.

Home > Self builds > A Garden Plot Eco Home
A Garden Plot Eco Home
Rather than moving, Dave and Julie built a large eco home in their own garden to give them some much needed space.
By Heather Dixon on
Photographer: David Burton
Dave Shakespeare's beautifully crafted model railway became so big that he and his wife Julie needed a bigger home. Not wanting to move, they decided to build a new home in their own back garden.
It was a radical solution, spurred on by their dream of building a more eco-friendly home that would embrace the garden Julie had painstakingly created over the past 18 years. What they didn't bargain for, however, was a year-long battle to get planning permission, or that the garden would be virtually destroyed during the process.
"In spite of the set-backs, it was a great adventure," said Dave. "I had self built our last house and later extended it, so I knew what to expect." But before they could contemplate building a new home, they had to demolish their own sitting room extension and reinstate the original layout of their previous house to create access down the side. Skip to the remainder of the story.
Name: Dave and Julie Shakespeare
Build cost: £180,000 (£632/m²)
Build time: Three years
Local Ancaster stone has been used, in keeping with the village's conservation status
The stylish kitchen features Cooke & Lewis units, with Indian Black Pearl granite worktops
The garden room is full of natural light and offers fantastic views of their beautiful garden
Model railway enthusiast Dave rebuilt his world reknowned track in a specially dedicated room upstairs
Dave spent several months paving the 14,500-brick drive and building a 25 x 1.8m brick and stone wall
Building finally began in June 2010. The delays with planning had been frustrating, but the extra time gave them chance to tweak the design to perfection and plan everything to the finest detail so there would be no hold-ups once building got under way.
"We invested in the fabric of the house and made sure everything was done properly, and to the highest standard, from the outset," said Dave. "We were lucky because we lived in the old house until we reached the point where we could move into this one."
Dave and Julie took the practical elements of the build in their stride, relying on 'tried, tested and trusted' tradespeople to also go the extra mile.
The first hurdle was to get the concrete foundations laid in the wake of torrential rain. Collapsed trenches had to be excavated again and due to the difficult site access, they had to use pumped trench flow concrete.
The couple employed a builder/bricklayer friend to lay the footings, facing bricks and the limestone, whilst they did all the labouring. Dave laid all the blockwork after the bricklayer went home and at weekends too.
The complex roof design was the next big challenge. Several lengthy steel beams had to be manoeuvred into place with a crane ready for fishplate joining above the 100mm block walls.
"One unusual decision we made was to use the on site crane to lift all of our extra-thick plasterboard on to the first floor, months before it could be roofed over," said Dave. "It was a big gamble. The one-tonne packs proved too heavy, even for our over-engineered floors, and we had to quickly redistribute the load over every room. Julie rose to the challenge with meticulous wrapping and waterproofing and, as a result, we didn't lose a single board."
"We had used the internet to source high-quality materials at honest prices – especially in the kitchen and bathrooms – leaving money for a no-expense-spared exterior and low-maintenance interior," said Dave.
They had also achieved their goal of creating an energy-efficient home. "During an unusually cold and extended winter, our ground-source heat pump maintained a house temperature of 22°C, 24 hours a day," said Dave. "We are an all-electric house, and our winter monthly consumption has never exceeded £160. During the warmer periods, our solar panel provides the majority of our hot water needs and costs pennies to run."
Dave and Julie kept a strict account of their day-to-day expenditure and a close eye on the long-term costs, even though they did not set themselves a budget. They also worked to a policy of zero waste — amazingly, just two bricks were left over from the 9,500 ordered.
Despite the early hiccups, Dave and Julie finally achieved the house of their dreams, and few things gave them more pleasure than sitting in the garden room and soaking up the glorious view.
The exhaustive planning certainly paid off. Dave even started rebuilding the model railway in a specially designated room upstairs.
Post-publication: December 2014
Unfortunately shortly after Dave and Julie moved in, Dave discovered he had an aggressive form of cancer and was told he had just months to live. Defying all odds, he and Julie launched into an intense self-help regime, which initialy helped to reverse the prognosis. At the time of publication in November 2013, we heard that Dave was doing well, and when interviewed Dave said "We built ourselves a beautiful home and I am determined to be around to enjoy it."
Thankfully he did get to enjoy the fruits of all of his hard labour for some time, but sadly Dave passed away in 2014.

The idea for developing a lab for scholars to study born digital media on computers for which works were originally produced grew out of Grigar's own collection of computers and works begun at her home in the mid-1990s. She expanded the idea with the exhibit, entitled "Early Authors of Electronic Literature: The Eastgate School, Voyager Artists, and Independent Productions," that Grigar curated for the Electronic Literature Organization 2008 Conference and Media Art Festival at WSUV in June 2008. The positive response received from the exhibit led her to search for permanent space on campus to host a lab that would provide ongoing access to electronic literature from the 1980s onward to others interested in scholarship in this area of research.
Two years later in July 2010, Grigar was assigned space in WSUV's Classroom Building (VCLS 210). ELL opened in spring 2011 with 16 of her legacy computers. Later that same semester the lab welcomed its first visitor, Anne Balsamo (UT Dallas), who had come to WSUV to keynote at the university's Research Showcase. Following her visit, Balsamo provided administrators and Grigar with a list of recommendations, one of which suggested the continued effort to build out ELL to include post-doctoral research and grant-writing in support of research.
Since 2013 ELL has hosted numerous post-doctoral scholars and has served as the site of numerous research projects, including Pathfinders (Grigar and Moulthrop, 2015) and Traversals (Moulthrop and Grigar, 2017); prominent exhibits of electronic literature at the Library of Congress, International Symposium on Electronic Art, and other venues. It has been supported by grants, most notably from the National Endowment for the Humanities (2013), and supported undergraduate research projects for 25 students. One of these––Chronicles: Documenting the Articulation of Culture in Video Games (2016), produced by Madeleine Brookman––resulted in Brookman receiving the 2016 Emeritus Society Undergraduate Research Award, the 2015 CAS Summer Mini-Grant, and the 2014-5 Auvril Fellowship. Another––The Progressive Dinner Party Restored (2019), produced by Kathleen Zoller––resulted in Zoller receiving a College of Arts and Sciences Summer Mini-Research grant to restore 33 of the 39 works by women artists of electronic literature featured in a special feature published in 1996 by Jennifer Ley's online journal, Riding the Meridian.
A move to a more central location on campus in 2015 provided the lab with a stronger presence among the Arts and Humanities that came with space for curating small exhibits of electronic literature and other forms of digital media. The following year, ELL began to serve as the site for preserving and archiving collections belonging to the Electronic Literature Organization and for preparing archives for Turbulence.org and the trAce Online Writing Center for long-term hosting at the Electronic Literature Repository at Compute Canada.
In 2017-2018, with funding from the Lewis E. and Stella G. Buchanan Distinguished Professorship, Grigar was able to expand ELL's scope by hosting documentation activities, including a Wikipedia-A-Thon, live Traversals, workshops, and scholar talks. The redevelopment of the ELL Catalog, begun in summer 2017, to function as both a finding and documentation tool as well as ELL's membership in The Consortium on Electronic Literature Project (CELL Project) reflected the growing role of ELL as a leading lab in the area of born digital media. The ELL Team published the first volume of Rebooting Electronic Literature: Documenting Pre-Web Born Digital Mediaon June 1, 2018.
From June 1 to December 20, 2018 ELL became the site of activity for "Building A Comprehensive Online Portal for Electronic Literature Works (COPE)." A preservation project funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, "COPE" saw the production of the ELO Repository and the ingestion of metadata from seven collections owned and/or managed by the Electronic Literature Organization. Since completing the project in December, Grigar and Schiller and other members of the ELL Team have continued to expand the collections to 25.
Along with work on the ELO Repository during 2018-19, members of the ELL Team have also reconstituted frAme, the journal published by the trAce Online Writing Centre, and Deena Larsen's Kanji Kus; conducted five Traversals of hypertext literature from the late 1990s to early 2000s, inventoried the ELO Repository for all Flash and Shockwave e-lit work in preparation for the submission of a NEH HCRR grant in July 2019 and began work on this book and planning for the Traversals in 2019-2020.

But there's one large difference between them, jQuery Mobile is open source while Kendo UI is a commercial product. Don't make this switch you to jQuery Mobile side just yet, open source doesn't mean it is better. Same thing goes for the commercial nature of Kendo UI.
This article is a part of a series where I am trying to explain differences between different HTML5 application frameworks. Original article is talking about a broad differences between 7 most popular HTML5 mobile frameworks. Follow previous link if you want to find out more about them.
I will try to make this article as objective as I can. Before we go any further let me be more transparent with you. I have originally started to work with jQuery Mobile 2 years ago. During that time I have joined Stackoverflow, and while helping other jQuery Mobile developers I've read something about Kendo UI. It intrigued me enough to spend few weeks playing with it. This article is the product of that time.
jQuery Mobile: Touch-Optimized Web Framework for Smartphones & Tablets. A unified, HTML5-based user interface system for all popular mobile device platforms, built on the rock-solid jQuery and jQuery UI foundation. Its lightweight code is built with progressive enhancement, and has a flexible, easily theameable design …..
Supported by large number of mobile platforms and desktop browsers.
Unfortunately that same support creates a lot of problems, but more about them later.
Not promoted as "One and the only" HTML5 framework you want and need.
Similar case like jQuery Mobile. Kendo UI support every major HTML desktop browser plus every major mobile platform. Little bit less then jQuery Mobile but every major/important platform is supported.
Look and feel, this topic is again going to be close. jQuery Mobile uses same UI regardless the platform. This is excellent if you want to provide platform consistency. Unfortunately UI looks to much like iOS, thankfully that was fixed with version 1.4. Very large set of widgets is provided, not to mention large 3rd party support (more about it here and here). Widgets are fully responsive and play well during the screen rotations.
From the "look" perspective, Kendo UI provides more then jQuery Mobile. Where jQuery Mobile provides one theme (several swatches) Kendo UI provides several themes. There's a theme made to mimic every kind (and version) of mobile device.
There's also one unique flat theme made to look the same on all available platforms. Widget support is as large as is case with jQuery Mobile, with few exceptions and differences (for example jQuery Mobile provides excellent table view and Kendo UI provides out of box carousel).
Layout design looks freakishly similar. Differences can be spotted only on a closer look. This was the first thing that led me to Kendo UI. Transition from jQuery Mobile to Kendo UI and vice versa is fast. During that transition, it took me only few hours to start creating complex UI designs.
Like in our first match this is going to be a very close situation. Both jQuery Mobile and Kendo UI are markup driven and their dependency on jQuery makes them extremely easy to master and use. Unfortunately jQuery Mobile don't offer MVC support, where Kendo UI has built in MVVM support. In case of jQuery Mobile it can be fixed with 3rd party framework like Backbone. While Kendo UI don't really need Backbone it can still be used if you prefer its architecture. jQuery is application framework in both cases but Kendo UI uses more java script like syntax then jQuery Mobile.
This is match where jQuery Mobile beats Kendo UI. First let me tell you that jQuery Mobile and Kendo UI don't have great documentation. It is often confusing, parts are missing or can be found in weird places, some topics require a lot of time to find out. But jQuery Mobile has something that Kendo UI lacks, at that is working examples made from their own code. I hate when I find an example and I need to test it myself to see how it looks and behaves, it is just unproductive.
This is going to be a short topic. jQuery Mobile is open framework and has a better 3rd party plugin support. Kendo UI developers are not that much fond of 3rd party plugin support, mostly because it can compromise their product which is understandable. Both frameworks don't require IDE and development can be done in any editor.
Yet another book from the Packt Publishing, second installment of this series. Originally I have bought first installment of this book which was outdated so you should also be careful. This one is currently 2 months old (26.11.2013) so it should satisfy you in coming months. Second edition is excellent all around book, covering everything from API to working examples. It is also an excellent book if you want to learn everything that needs to be know about jQuery Mobile API (Chapter 10), something event official product web page is lacking.
Bad 3rd party support, basically what you have is what you got.
Do not be discouraged by the title of this book, only one chapter (Chapter 3) is really dedicated to ASP.NET, rest of the book is dedicated to Kendo UI alone, making it also usable to JAVA and PHP developers. It is intended for beginners and expert developers alike. Book covers everything from API, widgets up to working example in form of Movie Ticket Application.
Unlike the previous one this book is dedicated only to Kendo UI Mobile library and its various components for building mobile applications effectively. It is rather short (compared to the previous one). Still it will cover everything you need to know about Kendo UI widgets and page building. One other thing, its price (6.29$) makes it also a bargain.
All in all both frameworks are mature products and can stand on their own. On the other had, even if tie is final result I would advise Kendo UI over jQuery Mobile. Mainly because it works much better and native like on mobile devices. jQuery Mobile is slowly catching up but it will take a lot of time to reach performance level of Kendo UI. In the end, choose Kendo UI if money is not a problem or you are creating a professional hybrid application. In any other case you should use jQuery Mobile. I understand my final thought don't feel objective but that is the truth. If performance is only then matters then Kendo UI is better then jQuery Mobile.


The company drew the ire of Bernie Sanders last month, sending its shares spiraling downwards.
Shares of the rare-cancer specialist Ariad Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:ARIA) shed more than 35% of their value in October, according to data from S&P Global Market Intelligence.
Apart from the marketwide headwinds that stung nearly all biotechs last month, Ariad was also negatively impacted by Senator Bernie Sanders' tweets openly criticizing the company's repeated price hikes for its flagship leukemia drug Iclusig. Iclusig's price tag now stands at a whopping $199,000, despite being a treatment of last resort for most patients.
Sanders is basically accusing Ariad of price gouging as a way to compensate for Iclusig's revised label that was rolled out in 2013. As a reminder, Iclusig was briefly taken off the market due to the risk of life-threatening blood clots. And when the drug reemerged, it did so with a much stricter label that seemingly cut its peak annual sales potential from $425 million to $300 million.
If we dig a bit deeper, though, this price-gouging claim may, in fact, not be warranted. The short story is that Iclusig's price has climbed at a compound annual growth rate of 9.58% since approval. While that may sound like a hefty price increase, it's actually a tad lower than the national average (10% annual appreciation) for cancer drugs over the last two decades.

Of course, there are compelling arguments to be made that most, if not all, cancer drugs are wildly overpriced in the U.S. and a 10% annual price hike, on average, is egregious. But the truth is that Ariad isn't doing anything out of step with the industry at large, and Iclusig's price scheme arguably pales in comparison to some of the more cringeworthy stories like the EpiPen that have been grabbing headlines lately.
Is Ariad cheap following this steep drop-off? My view is that Ariad is actually fairly valued at current levels, assuming the company is successful at grabbing a regulatory approval for its ALK+ non-small cell lung cancer treatment brigatinib next year.
The bottom line is that Ariad's valuation took a rather questionable swing upwards earlier this year on the news that a buyer may be lurking in the shadows. But now that Ariad has given back a fair amount of these gains, I think it does come across as a more compelling long-term buy. That said, investors should probably expect additional volatility emanating from the drug-pricing debate moving forward.
