There is no other field that creates such scholarly activity which generates a lot of writing as does science research along with opinion. These publications are supposed to be peer-reviewed, inspected, and replicated. Many titles are published every single week by labs all over the world!
A scientist is held to a high moral standard, because scientific research requires honesty! So why are fraud cases in the scientific community have been increasing so dramatically in recent times? Is there better detection on discovering the fraudulent papers or what? Are there just more errors as a result of more complexity in the papers or more errors being detected because of the amount of papers being submitted?
Wow, the 2,047 retracted papers surveyed they find…43 percent were fraud cases and they find another 24 percent were due to either duplicate publication or copies from other scientists! The 2047 papers which had been retracted all came from major publications that dominate the secular science realm, like nature, PNAS, and science. Only one-fifth of those papers were retracted due to mistakes. An incredible low number amount!
Wait a minute, there are many people who work under stress, and have temptations to bend the rules, but it doesn't compel them to break the rules! Shouldn't scientists be models of integrity? Misconduct in scientific papers is not a victimless crime. Some have suggested that "scientific misconduct may be a crime that only affects the perpetrators." Not so, scientists do publish papers on a variety of topics that the public cares about!
Also not only the 2/3 of the papers retracted because of fraud, but some reviews of the papers are frauds too! The Scientist discovered a new trend where scientists log into another name, posing as someone else and then give rave reviews on their paper! Only a few of them have been caught so far, it's unknown how large this trend has become.
This is unquestionably the most dangerous (for people physically) when fraud in the medical field happens and is able to prolong its detection by spreading itself out in various journals.
Last month, Marc Hauser, former Harvard evolutionary psychologist admitted making mistakes in his research that eventually lead to a misconduct investigation which prompted him to resigned. Harvard magazine listed various things that investigators discovered about Hauser doing such as fabricating data and falsely describing results. His department voted against him resuming his normal teaching duties.
4) Developing more stable and sustainable sources of research funding.
While it's great to read that there is now a growing concern over scientific fraud cases and those five solutions science daily had given can help limit fraud but some have tried to marginalize the problem. But one has to keep in mind, nobody knows how many papers should have been retracted. Yes, over 2,000 were retracted and that is quite the number in itself as well but how many more went undetected?
The evolutionists worldview doesn't account for sin, it doesn't have a reasonable explanation on why stuff happens, only it happens. They only borrow from Judeo-Christian moral principles found in the Bible while claiming it was the result of natural selection in a purposeless world.
In a biblical worldview, sin is accounted for, the Bible says all men have come short of the glory of God and all men are sinners and how to deal with it. While it's true that the scientific community are not the only ones who have committed such sins as fraud. The Biblical worldview teaches God demanding holiness. Not as merit to get into heaven, but fruits of salvation!
How Trustworthy Are Scientists Nowadays?
Most of us grew up with a positive perception of a scientist. We viewed him as honest, objective, unbiased, searching for truth, and improving every day life using the scientific method which enables him or her to be able to distinguish empirical fact from subjectivity. And when a mistake would occur, the rest of the scientific community was relied upon in finding those mistakes before publication.
It's dream of perfection, but it's not the real world. Scientists are just as fallible like the rest of us. Ultimate source for understanding is not rewarded, but what works and those things which are just agreed upon as what might work. Scientists face temptations of money and prestige while being constantly made sure either by rewards or other means they remain in the liberal bias or otherwise they face consequences.
Not surprisingly, only 2 percent of scientists have admitted to committed fraud or falsification, or altering when writing scientific papers. 34 percent admitted to questionable acts such as going by a "gut" feeling or contradicting their own previous data.
What they thought of their peers reveals some more interesting data. 17 percent said they knew of someone who fabricated a science paper while a whooping 72 percent knew of other scientists committing questionable acts.
Did you know that fabrication and falsification are rarely reported by whistleblowers? Why? Because it's hard to detect, because it's a subjective judgment. It's also very difficult to prove if it was an honest mistake, or inserted into the paper on purpose. But we know for a fact, the researchers do know if their peers are willfully committing fraud or not when it comes to science papers.
The question remains, how trustworthy do you think are scientists nowadays? Paleontologist Christopher Beard pointed out other problems exist as well like the hype we observed with the Ida fossil which evolutionists admitted, damages the public's perception of objectivity in scientists.
Public relations is the very reason why they are downplaying the fraud. In an article of the Washington Post where not one, not two, but three investigations turned up evidence that it's no small problem.
"The past decade's most bitterly fought case of scientific fraud rapidly turned into a morality play. Arrogance, ambition and pride had more to do with the way this quarrel developed than genetic theory did.
After five years and five investigations – two by universities, two by the National Institutes of Health and one by a congressional subcommittee – the affair seems to have arrived at a conclusion.
While fraud can and does hurt research about evolution, it goes way beyond that scope of study. You see, research fraud in the medical field can cause undue injuries or even death.
Thousands of papers are submitted each year, it very difficult to police all of them to make sure they are legit, then with the PR factor, some get overlooked. The question is, since this is a well known problem why hasn't the scientific community tried harder to crack down on it?
Activism in publications are geared for fighting creationism, or intelligent design, but cleaning their own house they seem to neglect. Yes, they do address the problem once in awhile, But we cannot put people's lives at stake for the sake of our own. We can be puffed with pride and deny a problem hardly exists. Research misconduct has a dangerous impact, one of which should be resolved!
Out of millions upon millions of legless fish, the whale was suppose to have legs because it evolved from the mammal species according to evolutionists. In Michigan, there is a huge display that supposedly represents the various transitions of whales.
So let's take a brief tour of the evidence presented. Pakicetus was discovered in 1983, in Pakistan. It consisted of a few fragments of skull and some jaw bones. In 1983, Science depicted the new discovery as a whale with legs which had web feet, even though the pieces found contained no such additions to their features.
More fragments were found years later, and this time the reconstruction of the animal had no web feet as depicted in the picture above which resembled more like it was part of the possum family than whales.
DNA samples were taken, and the result suggested the hippo (which eats plants) evolved into a meat-eating whale. This presents a problem for evolutionists because their own observational data suggests, the whale came before the hippo in the fossil record. So the DNA evidence and the fossil record do not agree with each other in evolutionary science.
"The most complete fossil described in the study is a species called Georgiacetus vogtlensis. Although not new to science, the new fossils provide some very significant new information. In particular, previously unknown bones from the tail show that it lacked a tail fluke. On the other hand, it did have large back feet and Uhen suggests that it used them as hydrofoils. Undulating the body in the hip region was the key factor in the evolution of swimming" Science Daily.
The new information as well as the old information lacks observational evidence. Originally, the real fossil was found without any appendages such as flippers or legs as one of the display cards at the museum indicates. However when touring Georgia Southern Museum, the guide (which is geared for children) misleads the reader into thinking the original fossil contained the legs like mammals because it withholds that information.
I believe they did that on purpose because it would diminish their hypothesis on how whales evolved. Perhaps use it as just a gap, thinking they will eventually find the evidence needed. Since then they have come up with story telling such as, how this whale evolved in swimming using it's hips in order to use the special features (legs) that wasn't found. This is typical evolutionary fraud which is not true science.
Will A New Computational Method Resolve the Origins Debate?
I recently read about a new computational method put out by Penn State University. The hype about it is already hitting blogs and news outlets. However, the main details of this particular method of research will not be made public till the week of Sept 6, 2008. So for now, I'm going to refrain from commenting on this new method until further details are published, but in the meantime, I wanted to draw your attention to the hype.
I noticed some bloggers think the new method will for sure produce results too. Isn't this the old argument, "Suppose Paul believes what he says. Therefore, Paul is not lying." Circular reasoning is what I'm referring too. The problem with predicting something will happen (understanding origins) when in fact they don't know, is nothing more than trying to justify grant money.
Computer models have a hard time predicting the weather seven days or more in advance, especially such weather activities as hurricanes. We seen the track of the most recent hurricane activity which was Hurricane Gustav. On Saturday afternoon, the hurricane looked pretty huge and dangerous as it packed very high winds up to 150 mile per hour and was headed straight for New Orleans. Then without notice, Hurricane Gustav went from juggernaut to a relatively small hurricane, a category two.
Indeed, it was a great relief, but the story was enormously hyped up because of past mistakes. Nobody knew for sure, not even the computer models knew what the impact of the hurricane would be. This leads me back to the story of the latest computational method. I do give the scientists credit for revealing their true thoughts about how reliable they think the research might be, but certainly not the hype being in the introduction, which I deem to be misleading. A typical sign of fraud research hype for fame and grant money using circular reasoning.


The federal government has unveiled its 2017 budget with Treasurer Scott Morrison describing it as a budget of "fairness, opportunity and security" – making housing and homelessness and fully funding the National Disability Insurance Scheme a centrepiece of its program.
The treasurer revealed an increase in the Medicare levy to fully pay for the NDIS while also delivering a crackdown on people who abuse the welfare system.
"This budget is about making the right choices to secure the better days ahead," Morrison told federal Parliament.
Morrison said the government had chosen to close the funding gap for the NDIS "once and for all".
"The funding gap is currently $55.7 billion over the next 10 years. We have previously sought to close this gap with budget savings that we have not been able to get through the Parliament," he said.
"To ensure the NDIS is fully funded we will legislate to increase the Medicare Levy by 0.5 percentage points in two years' time, when the extra bills start coming in.
On the housing front the government is set to replace the National Affordable Housing Agreement (NAHA) with a new set of agreements with the same funding.
"The Commonwealth will replace the National Affordable Housing Agreement that provides $1.3 billion every year to the states and territories, with a new set of agreements, with the same funding, requiring the states to deliver on housing supply targets and reform their planning systems," he said.
"We will also establish a $1 billion National Housing Infrastructure Facility, based on a UK model, to fund 'micro' city deals that remove infrastructure impediments to developing new homes.
The budget also delivers a crackdown on "people trying to take an easy ride" on the welfare system.
"Those who do not meet their responsibilities and either fail to turn up to appointments or take on suitable work will face escalating financial penalties, ranging from reduced to cancelled payments," Morrison said.
"We want to support job seekers affected by drug and alcohol abuse, but to protect taxpayers, it has to be a two-way street.
"We will no longer accept, as an excuse from repeat offenders, that the reason they could not meet their mutual obligation requirements was because they were drunk or drug-affected.
Controversially, he said jobseeker recipients who tested positive would be placed on the Cashless Debit Card for their welfare payments and be subjected to further tests and possible referral for treatment.
Other welfare measures included: strengthening verification requirements for single parents seeking welfare, a crackdown on those attempting to collect multiple payments, stricter residency rules for new migrants to access Australian pensions, and denying welfare for a disability caused by substance abuse.
"Tonight, we put to rest any doubts about Medicare and the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme. We are lifting the freeze on the indexation of the Medicare Benefits Schedule," the treasurer said.
He said the Commonwealth would increase hospital funding by an additional $2.8 billion over four years.
"Significantly, we will invest an additional $115 million in mental health, including funding for rural telehealth psychological services, mental health research and to prevent suicide," Morrison said.
"We will also invest $1.4 billion in ground-breaking health research over the next four years, including $65.9 million this year, to help research into children's cancer.
However welfare not for profit Anglicare said the budget "forgets that we're all in this together".
"This year's budget is a lost opportunity to tackle inequality. Instead, we've gotten another budget that pits Australians against each other," Anglicare Australia executive director, Kasy Chambers said.
Chambers welcomed positive aspects of the budget on housing and the NDIS.
But according to aid agencies the federal government has "raided" the Australian aid budget for the fourth consecutive year.
"Following cuts in 2014, 2015 and 2016 that take Australian aid to its lowest level ever, the government is raiding the aid budget yet again in 2017 with a further $303.3 million cut," director of Campaign for Australian Aid, Tony Milne said.
Welfare peak body Australian Council on Social Service (ACOSS) has welcomed a change of tack to invest in health, education and housing, but said the 2014 budget mindset "to demonise and impoverish the most disadvantaged" continued.
"The government is trying to put the 2014 horror budget behind it, securing the National Disability Insurance Scheme and putting housing affordability on the agenda but the government still neglects, blames and targets the most disadvantaged in the social security system," ACOSS CEO Cassandra Goldie said.
"The government's significant change of tack on Medicare and schools funding is welcome, recognising that people value essential services. The challenge is to properly fund them.
"The government has begun to strengthen the revenue side, by increasing the Medicare levy and taking further steps to stem tax avoidance by international businesses.
Goldie welcomed what she said was the "first steps to address housing affordability", including key elements to encourage private investment in affordable housing and secure funding for homelessness services.
"This start will only deliver for those on the lowest incomes if the next step is taken: new public investment in social housing and improved rent assistance for tenants," she said.
"But in social security, the government remains stuck in the 2014 budget mindset that demonises and impoverishes people who are unemployed.

This Is Why Prince Harry Got Many Warnings About Meghan Markle
Ever since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tied the knot in May 2018, there have been rumors regarding potential rifts within the royal family. From speculation about Markle and Kate Middleton not getting along, to a possible feud between Harry and his older brother, Prince William, the gossip has been constant. And just when fans of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex thought the rumor mill had reached its peak, the couple stepped down as senior members of the royal family and relocated from England to sunny Los Angeles, giving their sweet son, Archie, the chance to grow up in Meghan's native home.
Of course, "Megxit" only intensified speculation about supposed discord between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the rest of the royals. Despite all the drama, Meghan and Harry have remained fairly mum amid the scrutiny, seemingly preferring to keep the focus on their beautiful family and their relationship.
Although there's a good chance Meghan and Harry are eager to leave the unflattering narratives about their relationship behind, supposed insiders have continued to come forward with new allegations.
It's clear Harry and Meghan come from different worlds. She's an actor with humble beginnings, while he was world-famous at birth and grew up in Kensington Palace. It's these differences that allegedly sparked red flags for Harry's family, including Prince William, according to an excerpt from Royals at War: The Untold Story of Harry and Meghan's Shocking Split with the House of Windsor by Dylan Howard and Andy Tillett. After Harry started dating Meghan in 2016, William supposedly asked his younger brother,
"Is she the right one?"
William's questioning supposedly set Harry off and made him more protective of his budding romance. As Howard and Tillett claim in their book, Kate Middleton allegedly shared her husband's concerns. Howard writes,
"She gently reminded [Harry] that he was dating someone with a completely different life, past, and career and it would take time, care and attention for them to integrate."
Although some might perceive the couple's warnings as intrusive, Tillett and Howard's conversations with sources suggest they were well-meaning, even if Harry didn't see it that way. An insider told the authors,
"It's my opinion that Harry feels he couldn't protect his mother, so he's going all out to protect his wife. He is so sensitive he often sees criticism or negativity where there isn't any."
In the ITV documentary, Harry & Meghan: An African Journey, Prince Harry had nothing but kind things to say about Prince William. When asked about the alleged feud, he said,
"I'll always be there for him and as I know, he'll always be there for me. We don't see each other as much as we used to because we're so busy, but I love him dearly."
However, Royals at War claims rifts within the royal family did emerge after Meghan became romantically involved with Harry. The kicker? The discord didn't have to happen in the first place. Howard writes,
"The rifts that eventually opened up in the Royal family after Meghan arrived could have been avoided if Harry was able to empathize and take his brother's concerns in the spirit they were intended."
The good news is the two reportedly came to their senses shortly before Prince Harry's move abroad. A supposed source told The Sun in January 2020,
"They decided to cut out all the toxic people stirring around them to deal with each other man-to-man as brothers. Of course there have been serious differences in opinions but the family warmth is back. And they're sad they're going to be so far apart."
Now that Prince Harry has moved across the pond, Prince William has to make more of an effort to keep in touch with his little brother. And, as it turns out, William supposedly prefers to use a popular method of communication, the video conferencing app, Zoom. A source told The Sun's Fabulous Digital in June 2020 that the brothers' Zoom sessions are "low key and casual," adding,
"There is nothing formal about these Zoom sessions. It's about keeping in touch that's important. Harry has spoken on Zoom to the Queen as well."

Q: Dynamically scrape paginated table with BeautifulSoup and store results in csv? The code runs but the dataframe is empty.
In the URL below both the YEAR and the PAGE are dynamic.
I want to iterate through both and get the table td and (if possible) the dependend data under acc. date and extract the results in year.csv of each year.
import requests, csv
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from urllib.request import Request

url = 'https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/dblist.php?Year=1916&sorteer=datekey&page=1'
req = Request(url , headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/88.0.4324.190 Safari/537.36'})

with open('1916_aviation-safety.csv', "w", encoding="utf-8") as f:
    writer = csv.writer(f)
    writer.writerow(["acc. date", "Type", "Registration","operator", "fat", "Location", " ", "dmg", " ", " "])

    while True:
        print(url)
        html = requests.get(url)
        soup = BeautifulSoup(html.text, 'html.parser')

        # Go throught table = tbody and extract the data under the 'td' tag
        for row in soup.select('table > tbody > tr'):
            writer.writerow([c.text if c.text else '' for c in row.select('td')])
            print(row)

        # If more than one page then iterate through all of them
        if soup.select_one('div.pagenumbers > span.current + div.a'):
            url = soup.select_one('div.pagenumbers > span.current + div.a')['href']
        else:
            break

A: What happens?
First of all, always look into the soup - therein lies the truth.
You are missing the headers in the request of the while loop, that causes an 403 error and the table is not select correct.
How to achieve?
Set the headers for your request in the while loop correct:
html = requests.get(url , headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/88.0.4324.190 Safari/537.36'})

Select your rows more specific - Note there is no tbody in the html:
        # Go throught table = tbody and extract the data under the 'td' tag
        for row in soup.select('table tr.list'):

Also check the selectors for the pagination:
# If more than one page then iterate through all of them
if soup.select_one('div.pagenumbers span.current + a'):
    url = 'https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/dblist.php'+soup.select_one('div.pagenumbers span.current + a')['href']
else:
    break

Example
import requests, csv
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from urllib.request import Request

url = 'https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/dblist.php?Year=1916&sorteer=datekey&page=1'
headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/88.0.4324.190 Safari/537.36'}

with open('1916_aviation-safety.csv', "w", encoding="utf-8") as f:
    writer = csv.writer(f)
    writer.writerow(["acc. date", "Type", "Registration","operator", "fat", "Location", " ", "dmg", " ", " "])

    while True:
        print(url)
        html = requests.get(url , headers = headers)
        soup = BeautifulSoup(html.text, 'html.parser')

        # Go throught table = tbody and extract the data under the 'td' tag
        for row in soup.select('table tr.list'):
            writer.writerow([c.text if c.text else '' for c in row.select('td')])
            print(row)

        # If more than one page then iterate through all of them
        if soup.select_one('div.pagenumbers span.current + a'):
            url = 'https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/dblist.php'+soup.select_one('div.pagenumbers span.current + a')['href']
        else:
            break

Just in case
Alternative solution with pandas.read_html() that iterates over all years:
import requests,time,random
import pandas as pd
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from urllib.request import Request

headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/88.0.4324.190 Safari/537.36'}
url = 'https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/'
req = requests.get(url , headers = headers)
soup = BeautifulSoup(req.text, 'html.parser')

data = []

for url in ['https://aviation-safety.net/'+a['href'] for a in soup.select('a[href*="/wikibase/dblist.php"]')]:
    while True:

        html = requests.get(url, headers = headers)
        soup = BeautifulSoup(html.text, 'html.parser')

        data.append(pd.read_html(soup.prettify())[0])

        # If more than one page then iterate through all of them
        if soup.select_one('div.pagenumbers span.current + a'):
            url = 'https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/dblist.php'+soup.select_one('div.pagenumbers span.current + a')['href']
        else:
            break
        time.sleep(random.random())

df = pd.concat(data)
df.loc[:, ~df.columns.str.contains('^Unnamed')].to_csv('aviation-safety.csv', index=False)

A: I've made some changes to your script which should make it easier to debug and to maintain. It uses pandas to make writing to CSV easier as well as concurrent.futures to speed things up. If you have questions let me know, basically each year is scraped concurrently, I scrape the first page to get the  number of pages to scrape, then I loop over each page and parse the HTML. The key pieces of info are put into a dictionary then added to a list (which is easier to write to csv via pandas since it's basically a dataframe already - a list of dicts)
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import pandas as pd
from datetime import datetime
import re
import concurrent.futures

def scrape_year(year):

    headers =   {
        'accept':'*/*',

        }

    url = f'https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/dblist.php?Year={year}&sorteer=datekey&page=1'
    req = requests.get(url, headers=headers)

    soup = BeautifulSoup(req.text,'html.parser')

    page_container = soup.find('div',{'class':'pagenumbers'})

Washington: Did the Civil War ever really end in America? Did Partition settle the national identity question in India? Or do they remain open wounds in the world's largest two democracies?
Those who live in India would agree that the issue of what exactly should be the nation's primary identity is hardly a settled matter. That might be the only thing the two sides in the argument would agree on. One camp insists that the Partition of India was a defining moment at which the Muslims chose to have a separate nation carved out for them and therefore the remaining portion of India that is Bharat should be an unapologetic Hindu nation. The other side says the Constitution of India was drawn up in the manner it was because the republic of India would affirm a kind of secularism that would continue to accommodate Hindus and Muslims, as well as Sikhs, Christians, Buddhists, Jains and what have you, in direct contrast to the religion-defined profile of Pakistan.
Between the two nations the argument has continued for seven decades, violently, over the state of Jammu & Kashmir. Within the Indian republic, it is a critical fault line between major political parties and ideological camps. Who do we call an Indian? What truly is the idea of India?
Today the argument, which has waxed and waned over the decades, is at a high pitch. Subsets of questions keep surfacing: Who is a true Hindu? Do Dalits accept they are part of the Hindu family? If they do, why are so many fleeing to Buddhism? Does Hinduism have a fixed contour defined by the Vedas or is it a collection of traditions and practices which some 18th and 19th century scholars and nationalist leaders defined as a collective identity? Should Muslims have personal laws in a secular state? Must all Hindus be vegetarian? Do all Hindus share a singular identity? Do all Muslims? The argument, often violent, is not over.
In the United States, the northern states and the south fought violently in the 19th century over the southerners' assumed entitlement, in the name of states' rights, to own slaves and to continue treating African Americans as less than human. Around seven hundred thousand died in the Civil War which ended in 1865. But did the argument end with the north's victory?
No. Without going into details that can be found in history books, the southern states of the so-called Confederacy quickly established a system of effective apartheid. The southern states, after a period of reconstruction following the war, imposed local and state laws that from 1896 ensured continuing racial segregation. The system was not fully undone until the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts of 1963 and '64. But that was hardly the end of racial hatred in America.
To cut the story short, hate groups like the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazi white nationalists, who were presumed to be on the fringes of the socio-political spectrum, are openly enjoying a revival. After many had prematurely assumed that racism in America had been buried once for all by the election of Barack Obama as president, several observers now feel that the spell of eight years under an African American leader heightened fears among those who felt that their vision of a white America was rapidly fading, a fear deepened by the continuing influx of brown immigrants from south of the border and other parts of the world.
So they put in power a man who spoke their language of intolerance of minorities punctuated by racist dog whistles. The Klan and the so-called alt-right have welcomed his tone on racial matters and assemble now in public without face masks. Meanwhile, an anarchist "Antifa" or anti-fascist movement on the far left has become a source of gratuitous violence that has alarmed moderates and quickly been denounced by the president and his supporters as pre-planned leftist disruption of law and order.
In short, the world's two largest democracies are straining at the seams. How they tackle the rise of violently divisive intolerance might affect the future of democracy across the world.
Very good article. Unfortunately it is true.

Ecuadorian who died after being pushed by a tenant will be buried in the United States
Petroecuador offers public apologies to a worker with a disability
Ecuadornews:
The Petroecuador Public Company offered public apologies to a disabled employee who was dismissed during the administration of former general manager Alex Bravo. This act took place today, August 30, 2017, after a sentence issued by the Court of Criminal Guarantees of Quito, in favor of Marcelo José Toscano.
Toscano worked for five years as a Station Service Assistant but was fired in 2016. He filed a protection action in which he pointed out that Bravo removed him from his post in an untimely manner, violating his constitutional rights to equality and non-discrimination and work, by virtue of his status as a person with disabilities.
On March, the Criminal Guarantees Court of Quito accepted the lawsuit and acknowledged the vulnerability of rights. Among other measures, the court ordered public apologies to Toscano. In addition, he rejoined the company last May 1. (I)

A couple weeks ago I was honored to be selected to speak at MWLUG next month in Austin, Texas. Attending my first conference as consultant with PSC, I will be once again speaking…this time with my co-worker Kathy Brown. Having such a terrific and experienced speaker like Kathy as my co-presenter is comfort as we prepare over the next six weeks to provide a quality session on the use of dashboards in modern web applications.
When you're driving a car, you need a lot of data quickly. How fast are you going? Are there any problems you need to address? Where do you get that data at a glance? Your dashboard, of course. All the info you need at your finger tips, easily understood. Your applications have a lot of data and important information, but can your users get to it quickly? Can they easily spot issues or know what they need to do right now? Shean and Kathy will take you for a test drive through some XPage application dashboards. They will demonstrate how to move away from email-driven tasks and buried information to show you how you can easily visualize your critical business data. Come see how an application can provide a visually striking, functional, and easy to use Data Visualization for common workflow actions, important info, charts, and key metrics. Put your users in the driver's seat!
If you have not attended an MWLUG conference before I strongly urge you to consider attending. It's a fantastic event, full of great content (we hope to live up to that standard), great friends, and plenty of productive conversations. I can't wait!


Mental Health is a second career for me. When I graduated college, I enrolled in a teaching program and graduated with a Master's in Special Education. For the next five years, I poured my heart and soul into a professional I hated.
I hated every minute of being a teacher, even though I worked hard and was especially good at it. However, one thing that attributed to the stress of being a teacher was that I had horrible time management skills. I was also young and wanted to impress my boss and co-workers, so I'd would put in crazy amounts of hours at work.
This went on for 5 years, then I finally got the guts to quit and go towards my calling in Mental health. When I started my first job as a therapist, I vowed to be better with my time so that I can show up as the best version of myself for my clients.
I failed at this miserably!
Although I got really good at leaving right on time, the work piled up and I found myself swamped and constantly catching up on paperwork. When I left my first position, things I had to change. So I started being proactive about scheduling a day with tasks and ensuring that my task list was realistic. So here I am, a year into my new position, still playing catching on most days, but the days of feeling overwhelmed and out of control are few and far between.
Assess how long it takes you to complete tasks: This can be helpful because it allows you to place high priority tasks at the top of your list to get these out of the way first!
Block out a time in your schedule to focus solely things like documentation. Be sure to stick to that time so that it doesn't interfere with your other tasks.
Put the hardest task at the top of the list… just get it over with!
USE LISTS… I have been referencing lists because for me, that the best way for me to keep organized.
Make your list realistic. I usually don't put more than 5 to 7 tasks on my list per day. This way I can cross all items off the list and feel accomplished while things are ACTUALLY GETTING DONE!
LEAVE WORK ON TIME. Yes, even if one item isn't crossed off the list. You have to learn to shut down and go home. Tomorrow's another day!
FORGIVE yourself for not being perfect on most days. The goal is to be efficient, not tired and burnt out. So utilize some of these skills to help you through your days!

Q: Trouble displaying MySQL table in HTML/PHP I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get my table to display as a web page.
Everything else is working fine. I've been able to use a form to write records TO the table, but I'm simply unable to display the table.
Here's my code:
$host = "***";
$userName = "***";
$passWord = "***";
$db = "doctorWho";

mysql_connect($host,$userName,$passWord);
mysql_select_db($db) or die( "Unable to access database");
$query = "SELECT * FROM patients";

$result = mysql_query($query);

echo "

    Last Name
    First Name
    Address
    Age
    Sex
    Marital Status
    Medication
    Date Rx'd
    Quantity

";

while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))
  {
  echo "
";
  echo "" . $row['lastName'] . "	";
  echo "" . $row['firstName'] . "	";
  echo "" . $row['address'] . "	";
  echo "" . $row['age'] . "	";
  echo "" . $row['sex'] . "	";
  echo "" . $row['maritalStatus'] . "	";
  echo "" . $row['medication'] . "	";
  echo "" . $row['medsWhen'] . "	";
  echo "" . $row['medsQuant'] . "	";
  echo "
";

  }
echo "
";

A: You want mysql_fetch_array().  Currently, you are mixing two different extensions.  Each takes something different, relevant to the extension.
That aside, you should consider either PDO or MySQLi, which is where the wrong function you attempted to use is from.  This article should help you decide which you could possibly use.

A: // I think your connection should look like this
$conn = mysql_connect($host,$userName,$passWord);
mysql_select_db($conn,$db) or die( "Unable to access database");

// another is your using mysql as connection so you can use mysqli functions on that rofl.
//Instead use mysql functions
mysql_fetch_array();

note: Another one is instead of using @ sign to handle error. Its much more best practice to use.. ini_set() or configuring php.ini in handling displaying of errors.

A: From php ref.
mixed mysqli_fetch_array ( mysqli_result $result [, int $resulttype = MYSQLI_BOTH ] )

mysqli_fetch_array need to mysqli_result, but you are using mysql_query, you should try mysql_fetch_array

A: Just change:-
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))

to
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))


Most effective homemade rose bush bug sprays contain garlic, which repels and eradicates many common rose bush pests. Rose bushes are most often attacked by aphids, but they can also be damaged by earwigs, June bugs, leafhoppers and whiteflies. If you've noticed aphids on your rose bush, make a simple spray with garlic, onion, dish soap and water. If you've seen other pests on your rose bushes, a homemade bug spray using garlic, mineral oil, dish soap and water should do the trick.
Chop one small onion finely. Peel and coarsely chop two cloves of garlic.
Place the chopped onion and garlic into a blender. Add 2 cups of water and 1 tbsp. of liquid dish soap.
Blend the ingredients on high speed until well-combined. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth to strain it.
Pour the strained liquid into a clean spray bottle. Spray the liquid onto the rose flowers, leaves and stems.
Mince two to three large garlic cloves. Place the minced garlic into a large mixing bowl and add 2 tpsp. mineral oil. Allow the garlic to sit in the oil for about 24 hours.
Mix ¼ ounce of liquid dish soap into 1 pint of water in a separate container. Mix gently so you don't create bubbles.
Pour the water and dish soap mixture into the large mixing bowl with the garlic and mineral oil. Stir the ingredients together.
Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth to strain it. Add 1 to 2 tbsp. of the strained mixture to a clean spray bottle filled with 1 pint of water. Store the rest of the mixture in an airtight container.
Spray the rose bushes to cover the leaves, stems and blooms. Spray the undersides of the leaves as well.
Spray once or twice per month during the growing season if your bug problem recurs in your rose bushes. You may need to spray the rose bush several times to get rid of the bugs if you have a heavy infestation.
Some ornamental rose varieties may be sensitive to oils and soaps. Spray just a few leaves to test the homemade bug spray before spraying the entire bush. If you don't see any damage to the leaves two or three days after spraying, proceed with spraying the entire rose bush.
These homemade bug sprays are not effective for all rose bush pests. These sprays won't necessarily get rid of adult ladybugs, grasshoppers, red ants, sowbugs and Colorado potato beetles.

Genomic dissection of behavioral maturation in the honey bee

Honey bees undergo an age-related, socially regulated transition from working in the hive to foraging that has been previously associated with changes in the expression of thousands of genes in the brain. To understand the meaning of these changes, we conducted microarray analyses to examine the following: (i) the ontogeny of gene expression preceding the onset of foraging, (ii) the effects of physiological and genetic factors that influence this behavioral transition, and (iii) the effects of foraging experience. Although >85% of ≈5,500 genes showed brain differences, principal component analysis revealed discrete influences of age, behavior, genotype, environment, and experience. Young bees not yet competent to forage showed extensive, age-related expression changes, essentially complete by 8 days of age, coinciding with previously described structural brain changes. Subsequent changes were not age-related but were largely related to effects of juvenile hormone (JH), suggesting that the increase in JH that influences the hive bee-forager transition may cause many of these changes. Other treatments that also influence the onset age of foraging induced many changes but with little overlap, suggesting that multiple pathways affect behavioral maturation. Subspecies differences in onset age of foraging were correlated with differences in JH and JH-target gene expression, suggesting that this endocrine system mediates the genetic differences. We also used this multifactorial approach to identify candidate genes for behavioral maturation. This successful dissection of gene expression indicates that, for social behavior, gene expression in the brain can provide a robust indicator of the interaction between hereditary and environmental information.

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Thursday said he would soon formally call for rolling back regulations on thousands of small and regional banks, arguing that major changes were necessary to help these companies make more loans and boost the economy.
Testifying before the Senate Banking Committee, Mnuchin previewed two specific recommendations he plans to make in the first of several reports to President Trump next month.
He said he would call for exempting all banks with less than $10 billion in assets from rules under the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial overhaul law. The vast majority of banks have less than $10 billion of assets, and they often complain about excessive regulation.
The second change Mnuchin said he was expecting to recommend would allow many regional banks to escape tighter regulatory scrutiny by raising the $50 billion asset threshold that automatically triggers tougher oversight. He didn't say, though, what threshold he might recommend.
Mnuchin also seemed to back away from past comments from Trump and some in the Republican Party who have called for breaking up the country's largest banks by reinstating a version of the Glass-Steagall Act, which separated commercial banks from investment banks. Mnuchin said such a law would hurt companies and access to credit, sparring with Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) who is a proponent of the change.
"We never came out and said we should separate banks from investment banks," Mnuchin said.
"This is just bizarre," Warren later responded.
His comments came during a wide-ranging and often combative hearing, during which he defended the White House's tax proposal, distanced himself from at least one part of Trump's budget plan, and locked horns with Warren and other Democrats.
But a chief focus was on his review of banking regulations, which was spurred by an executive action Trump signed shortly after taking office. The White House believes that banking rules are strangling the banking industry and hurting economic growth, but many Democrats warned Mnuchin on Thursday that rolling back regulations could lead to another financial crisis.
On the White House's plan to overhaul the tax code, Mnuchin said the White House wanted to lower rates for businesses and individuals and lure companies back to the United States, creating more tax revenue.
But he was attacked several times by Democrats who alleged the White House's plan would lead to less revenue coming into the government, growing the debt. Mnuchin said tax cuts would lead to more economic growth, creating more revenue, an economic theory popular with conservatives known as dynamic scoring.
"I'm very suspicious of dynamic scoring, because it's been done before," Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) told Mnuchin.
Mnuchin told lawmakers that Treasury planned to release its own estimate of the positive economic impacts of its tax-cut plan, which would contain different projections from the Congressional Budget Office and the Joint Committee on Taxation. The estimates from CBO and JCT are often the guideposts that frame how tax changes are adopted.

Samuel Howitt (1756/7 - 1823)
Coloured aquatint
Samuel Howitt is thought to have been born to a Quaker family from Nottinghamshire. He is first recorded living in Chigwell, Essex. He was keen sportsman, engaging in hunting, riding and angling, and also a self-taught amateur artist until financial difficulties led him to turn professional. After this he worked as a painter, etcher and illustrator of animal and sporting subjects. He exhibited at the Incorporated Society of Artists and Royal Academy and illustrated many sporting and zoological books. In 1779 he married the sister of the Thomas Rowlandson, whose work influenced him. Samuel and Elizabeth had three children. He lived in London almost continually from 1793, but for a brief period in Richmond, Yorkshire. He died in Somers Town.

A friend recently told me about an eye-wear brand with the foundation of individuality. Ivory Mason is an LA-based eye-wear company that sells unique sunglasses, glasses, and reading glasses for men and women. At Ivory Mason they're all about ditching conformity and promoting the importance of being yourself. In addition to their collections, they also make vintage replica shades in limited quantities. I love the "Vogue" vintage sunglasses. They've even been featured on E! News and in OK magazine.
Ivory Mason also donates a pair of glasses to a visually impaired child for every one sold.

Ben Runkle's Top Picks for Austin
What Not to Miss in Austin
The co-owner of Salt & Time, Ben Runkle is Austin's leading meat purveyor. What was born from Runkle's passion for Old World charcuterie, turned into the city's first whole carcass butcher shop and salumeria when a partnership with Bryan Butler developed in 2010. The pair are committed to sourcing animals directly from Texas ranchers, placing equal value on ethics and flavor. It's the quality of the product and the capability to butcher custom cuts of meat that keeps customers—and world class chefs like Paul Qui—coming through the door. Now serving brunch, lunch and dinner with a menu featuring rotating butcher's cuts, odd bits, cured meats, housemade pastas and burgers, a visit to Salt & Time is a must. Below, Runkle shares a few of his favorite things to do in Austin, from a dip in Barton Springs to an unforgettable taco crawl.

Barton Springs is probably on every list of "things to do in Austin," but this is no cop out. Barton Springs is a true treasure, especially on a hot Texas day. Situated in Zilker Park with a view of downtown, this spring-fed swimming hole is half lake/half pool with natural vegetation and sandy bottom in parts, and swimming lanes and diving boards in others. The water is a constant 70 degrees year round and the grass covered hills on the east side of the pool are great for sunbathing and relaxing.
Jester King Brewery
Austin's craft brewing scene is blowing up with new breweries opening seemingly everyday, but Jester King stands out from the crowd as a truly authentic farmhouse brewery. Situated on the edge of Austin heading towards the Texas Hill Country, Jester King makes remarkable beer in a remarkable setting. The brewery sits on close to 60 acres of pristine land. The beautiful views are complemented by Jester King's outstanding beers, each unique while at the same time wonderfully representing the Hill Country terroir. In addition to their own beers, Jester King's bottle shop and tap room features a world class selection of beer, cider and wine. Also on site is Stanley's Farmhouse Pizza, a wood oven pizza joint with even more beer on tap.

Tacos are to Austin what pizza is to New York. Sure, barbecue gets a lot of well-deserved love and attention, but can you imagine waiting in line for hours for a slice, or not eating pizza after dark? Tacos are ubiquitous; you can find a good taco pretty much anytime anywhere, usually from a beat up looking trailer on the side of the road. While there are some great options for fancified tacos, I prefer to keep it simple. I get most of my tacos from trailers outside of my favorite watering holes. Primos Tacos outside of Once Over Coffee is my preferred stop to start the day. I generally go for the Migas tacos with spicy salsa, but you can't go wrong with any of their breakfast tacos. Head inside Once Over while you are waiting for a great cup of coffee. For a happy hour refresher, head to Pueblo Viejo at the Grackle. I get the loaded Viejo Style tacos with steak, mushrooms, lettuce, tomato, cheese and avocado and then head inside to order from the Grackle's excellent draft beer list. If you find yourself at The White Horse (and you most likely will), the El Pastor Tacos from Bomb Tacos lay down an excellent foundation for a night of whiskey, Lonestar and two stepping.
The Harry Ransom Center

The University of Texas campus can seem a world apart from the rest of Austin, but it is home to the city's best museums, including the Blanton Museum of Art, The LBJ Library and Museum, and the Harry Ransom Center. The Ransom Center is incredible archive of cultural and literary history. While the entire archive is only available for research purposes, the rotating displays at the Museum showcase the incredible collection of photographs, prints and books. On permanent display are the Niepce's "View from the Window at Les Gras" (the world's first photograph), along with the Gutenberg Bible (the first book printed using moveable type). These artifacts would make Indiana Jones swoon, and yet here they are on display for the world to see.
Callahan's General Store
Credit: Callahan's on Facebook
Callahan's is a reminder of Austin's strong agricultural heritage. A true general store, Callahan's stocks hardware and tools, clothing and boots, canning supplies, and a wide variety of agricultural supplies. They also have a wide range of made-in-Texas food products and a great selection of books. Outside they have chickens, guinea hens, goats, pigs and many other livestock available for sale. They also operate Capital Feed Mill, supplying conventional and organic feed to everyone from backyard chicken farmers to larger farming operations outside of town. Go on a Saturday, and there will likely be a petting zoo, live music and somebody grilling in the parking lot.
Ben Runkle is a former vegan who's passion for fresh, flavorful and sustainable food drove him to reevaluate his dietary and career choices. Runkle began his career as a butcher's apprentice at Marin Sun Farms Butcher Shop in Pt. Reyes Station, CA and was privileged to continue his education with David Budworth at Avedano's Holly Park Market and Taylor Boetticher at the Fatted Calf. In 2009, he and his wife Natalie Davis moved to Austin, TX and started Salt & Time. Originally focused on producing Old World style salumi and charcuterie, Runkle partnered with Bryan Butler in 2010 to grow Salt & Time into Austin's first whole carcass Butcher Shop, Salumeria and Restaurant. Runkle's time in Texas has influenced his culinary point of view and he takes great pride in developing new products that highlight native flavors and ingredients.

Lebanon in uncharted territory
RIYADH — Returning to my apartment in the evenings, my daily ritual over the past week has been to load Facebook and scroll through endless videos and images posted by my friends and family in Lebanon. They show massive crowds thronging to Beirut's Martyrs' Square, posters lampooning the political elite and impromptu speeches by protesters condemning their country's broken government and economy.
I am not Lebanese, but I have called the country home for a total of seven years now. More important, my wife is Lebanese and the upheaval in the country is no longer just another news story, but something that directly affects my family. Our family WhatsApp groups are now a constant flurry of activity, with members sharing the latest news, participating in the ongoing political debates and trying to figure out what comes next.
Lebanon has never seen such grassroots political protest; it's also never undergone major peaceful reform. How the current situation plays out is anyone's guess.
The proximate cause of the current wave of protest was an announcement by the government, since rescinded, that it would impose a tax on Whatsapp voice calls. Lebanon has some of the highest telecommunications fees in the world, and many people use such calls to circumvent the exorbitant costs of the normal phone system. But the latest proposed tax was just the tipping point: For years, Lebanese have increasingly been gouged by the state and received less and less in return. The government has proved incapable of providing basic services such as electricity or garbage collection, and good jobs are a rare commodity—many young Lebanese are forced to find employment outside of the country.
Lebanon also has one of the highest debt-to-GDP ratios in the world, and the valuation of the lira, which has remained steady since the end of the civil war, is increasingly under threat. The country suffers from a dollar shortage: Starting about a month ago, the banks made it increasingly difficult to withdraw US currency; they would often simply lie when customers would attempt to do so, blaming the problem on temporary glitches. The government responded to its economic challenges by embarking on austerity efforts. To many ordinary people, however, the real cause for the crisis was the country's corrupt political class, which they blamed for looting the country's wealth.
There is a fundamental disconnect between the aims of Prime Minister Hariri and the protesters'. Hariri is searching for ways to reduce the budget deficit without raising taxes. But no one who has taken to the streets is protesting for a balanced budget—Lebanese want the government to do more for them, not less.
Those grievances have prompted a broad-based protest movement, the likes of which Lebanon has never seen. There are massive demonstrations not only in downtown Beirut but across the country, in cities such as Tripoli, Nabatieh and Sur. All Lebanon's major religious groups have participated—and in contrast to previous protest movements, have aimed their ire at their own political leaders rather than just those of other sects.
In response to the protests, Prime Minister Saad Hariri announced a series of economic reforms yesterday. The salaries of current and former members of parliament will be cut, several state institutions abolished and increased taxes imposed on the banking sector. He also promised to oversee the drafting of a law to recoup assets lost due to corruption.
There is a fundamental disconnect between the aims of Hariri and the protesters, however. The prime minister is searching for ways to reduce the budget deficit without raising taxes on citizens. But no one who has taken to the streets is protesting for a balanced budget—Lebanese want the government to do more for them, not less. Hariri's proposals include a relatively small amount of money for impoverished people; details of his anti-corruption legislation, meanwhile, remain hard to come by. It is far from clear how Lebanon squares the economic necessity of austerity with the steadily mounting demands of the protesters.
The protest movement also faces real challenges in the days and weeks ahead. It is fundamentally leaderless: Lebanese politics have long been dominated by those who base their appeal around the defense of their religious sects, preventing the emergence of a truly multi-sectarian political movement. That lack of leadership makes it difficult to coordinate effectively or unite around a set of concrete demands.
There is also the ever-looming threat of political violence. The protests have turned violent at times over the past week. The Lebanese army last night also broke up an attempt by members of Hezbollah and the Amal Movement, two Shia parties, from reaching the protesters in downtown Beirut. It is unlikely that the political parties will allow such a threat to their primacy to continue indefinitely.
Lebanon is in uncharted territory. There is no precedent in the country's history for such massive political mobilization outside the entrenched parties' control. Unfortunately, there is also no precedent in Lebanese history for significant political change occurring without violence. Whatever happens, I will remain glued to my computer screen.

4 suspects go on early-morning crime spree in…
Court denies San Bernardino lawsuit
Dining in the 909
4 suspects go on early-morning crime spree in Redlands, police say
By Brian Rokos | brokos@scng.com | The Press-Enterprise
PUBLISHED: July 24, 2019 at 5:35 p.m. | UPDATED: July 24, 2019 at 5:36 p.m.
Four people, including two teenagers from San Bernardino, went on a burglary and robbery spree in Redlands early Wednesday, July 24, according to the Redlands Police Department.
The teenagers, boys ages 16 and 17, were caught. Police were still searching for two other accomplices late Wednesday.
Police spokesman Carl Baker said the quartet used what turned out to be a stolen minivan to commit three separate crimes, each occurring about a half-mile apart.
Police were first alerted to the spree about 4:45 a.m., when a resident in the 1000 block of Lalania Avenue reported that she had security video of four people attempting to break in to her home. While officers were at that residence, they received a report that four people had kicked in the front door of a home in the 1000 block of E. Lugonia Avenue. They fled in an older white minivan after the resident there confronted them.
While patrolling the area, police spotted a van traveling south on Orange Street from Lugonia. As police tried to stop the van, three people jumped out, and the van rolled into a parked car at E. Western Avenue and Alta Street, Baker said.
Officers arrest man who they say stole undercover Corona police car
Murrieta man arrested in string of armed robberies
Hundreds of packages stolen from Aguanga post office
Attempted home invasion robbery leaves 2 fatally shot, 2 others wounded in Riverside County community
Snake bites and football injuries: Menifee woman accused of medical insurance fraud
Two people were detained, and the victim identified the pair as among those who tried to break in to the Lugonia home, Baker said.
Soon after, a person flagged down police and told them that four people driving a white minivan had robbed him of his cellphone and wallet about 4:30 a.m. at Community Park on Church Street. Police found his wallet inside the crashed van, Baker said.
The teens were arrested on suspicion of burglary, attempted burglary, robbery, vandalism, hit and run and conspiracy, Baker said. The search for the other suspects continues.

Spotlight: Dow studies mental health of teens with HIV in Tanzania
By Karin Zeitvogel
Dr. Dorothy Dow had been working since 2011 in a clinic in Tanzania, focused on pediatric infectious diseases and prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV, when she observed something troubling: HIV mortality rates were increasing among teens even as they declined in most other age groups. The deaths weren't caused by the virus itself or lack of access to treatment, said Dow, but by the stigma associated with being diagnosed with the illness and teens' inability to cope mentally with the news. "There was an adolescent HIV epidemic unfolding and youth were committing suicide. I wanted to dig deeper into this and find out why it was happening," said Dow.
Having gone to Tanzania to conduct biomedical research into HIV, Dow shifted her focus to the mental health of teens with the disease, most of whom had been infected perinatally. She harnessed the Fogarty Global Health Fellowship she was awarded and in 2014 began conducting research to try to better understand the psychological difficulties experienced by youth living with HIV in Tanzania.
As she compared the interventions used for HIV-positive teenagers at the Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center (KCMC) with those at the nearby Mawenzi Government Hospital, Dow found that the rate of mental health problems among teens at Mawenzi was double that at KCMC. One key difference between the two healthcare facilities was that KCMC ran a clinic just for teens, while the other had no such program. Dow and her colleagues presented data they'd gathered to Mawenzi, showing the difference in outcomes between its approach to HIV-infected teens and that of KCMC, and encouraged the hospital to offer a clinic where those adolescents could discuss not only prevention and treatment options but also the mental health issues associated with the disease.
"Had I not been on the ground in Tanzania, I don't think I'd have seen the problem the same way," said Dow. "Fogarty has been instrumental in my career path by allowing me first to be on the ground with my fellowship, and then to stay on the ground with an International Research Scientist Development Award (IRSDA), or K award, which I received in 2015."
Supported by Fogarty and the National Institute for Mental Health (NIMH), Dow is using her grant to research how to improve teenagers' HIV outcomes and adherence to antiretroviral therapy by addressing the mental health treatment gap that exists in Tanzania.
"We've helped more and more children survive until their teenage years through interventions such as preventing mother-to-child transmission and by raising awareness of what causes HIV, but once they hit adolescence, we start to lose them," said Dow. "Around half of new HIV cases in Tanzania occur in the 15-24 years' age group, and there are no mental health professionals available to help them with the psychological distress of living with HIV. I think that's because we've neglected the social determinants and the mental health components, and because the youth need to be at the table with us, to help us figure out how to help them."

In the life of a Pakistani there are few constants i.e. economy in trouble, batting collapses in cricket and our Pakistani Cinema being revived. No matter what we do, ranging from hiring foreign specialists to relying on our own talent or just try to go with the flow, the result seems to be the same. But every now and then we shake up things with the hope the outcome will be different. While I am not a specialist on any one of above mentioned issues, however, as the title suggests I will try to write about our attempts to revive our film industry.
The industry existed in a healthy shape till late 70s and early 80s, however, Pakistani cinema lost its touch once the creative and original work stopped and was replaced with plagiarized work with heavy influence from work being done in India. Moreover, the financiers started viewing cinema as a medium to mint money instead to provide views with quality work. As a result, the entertainment being offered was cheap comedy, copied movie plots, vulgar dances and useless music. The situation only worsened with the availability of VCRs and access to Bollywood movies, which decidedly ended the Pakistani cinema in 90s. During these years, Pakistan was however was still producing outstanding work in TV dramas and a budding pop music.
The mantra of revival of Pakistani music began during 1st decade of 21st century once Shoaib Mansoor, a well-known drama and music director released movie "Khuda key Liye". The movie deservedly received a lot of accolade and as a result a ray of hope was sighted. In the subsequent years, few movies were released however; they could only achieve limited success.
During last 2-3 years, drama productions houses have started venturing in film making and distribution, which has proved beneficial in a way that ample funds are now available to producers to make movies of their own choice. Earlier, the equipment, casting, choice of site, marketing etc… were severely affected by lack of funds. The number of movies being released every year is increasing every year now, however, it has raised the erstwhile question about the quality of the final product.
It is worth remembering the decline of cinema started with the production of a large number of movies on "formulas", the term loosely referring to movies having similar caste, identical stories, sensual dances and noise in the name of music. Ironically, the same phase is being observed, where repetitive movie themes and characterization has become a norm. Recently, two movies, Raasta directed by Sahir Lodhi and Chain Aye Na directed by Syed Noor faced heavy criticism for being low in quality and substandard content.
However, once the movies could not perform well on Box Office, both directors resorted to the claims that a conspiracy is being hatched by certain quarters to negatively affect the revival of cinema.
The main cause of failure of new productions is the same as experienced in the past i.e. to make formula movies. Actors who have outlived their utility on TV are now appearing in lead roles in movies basing primarily due to financial reasons. On occasions they are easily twice the age of their female counterparts. Directors are relying on a limited number of actors in comedy roles as if the country of 22 million cannot produce quality actors in such roles. Same goes for the lead actresses and the actors in supporting roles. Movie plots revolve around the culture which hardly exists in our normal lives. While limited dramatization is acceptable, however, complete themes of the movies, selection of costumes and the general environment being propagated hardly exist even in our urban areas.
Movies completely disregard the problems faced and lives being lived by their viewers and hence often become superfluous. Such movies which have a clear disconnect from our culture will eventually take the cinema to a downward swirl as happened in the past.
It is the need of the hours that instead of making run of the mill projects, directors and producers keep themselves rooted to our culture and try to connect with the audience instead of relying on skimpy clothes, item songs, loud music and tired castes. Considering the alternatives available in the form of Bollywood and Hollywood, the audience will not tolerate this very long and the good work done in last few years will be undone easily and quickly.
