Emotional health in adolescents with and without a history of specific language impairment (SLI)
Conti-Ramsden, G. and Botting, N. (2008). Emotional health in adolescents with and without a history of specific language impairment (SLI). Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 49(5), pp. 516-525. doi: 10.1111/j.1469-7610.2007.01858.x
Objective: This study examined the emotional health of adolescents with and without specific language impairment (SLI).
Method: One hundred and thirty-nine adolescents with a history of SLI (15;10 years) and a peer group of 124 adolescents with normal language development (NLD) (15;11 years) participated, who were in their final year of compulsory schooling. The risk of emotional difficulties was assessed using the Moods and Feelings Questionnaire (MFQ) and the Child Manifest Anxiety Scale-R (CMAS-R). Comprehensive language and cognition data were available for all participants (NLD and SLI) concurrently and also longitudinally for those with SLI.
Results: A clear increased risk of emotional health symptoms was found for the SLI group on both self- and parental-report. Girls scored less favourably than boys when groups were combined, but these were due to the effect of the NLD group, with no gender differences found in the SLI group. Direct links with language and cognition were not obvious. Instead, more diffuse factors such as family history of emotional health difficulties may warrant further investigation.
Conclusion: There is a marked higher rate of anxiety and depression symptoms in adolescents with SLI. However, these do not appear to be a direct result of impoverished communicative experiences.

Minneapolis women jailed in Israel
By Mary Turck (TC Daily Planet) | August 3, 2009
Members of the Anti War Committee delegation were jailed upon their arrival in Israel.
UPDATE: Katrina Plotz and Sarah Martin are on a plane, en route to MSP, scheduled to arrive early afternoon.
Two Minneapolis women, Katrina Plotz and Sarah Martin, are in jail in Israel after being refused entry to the country. A third, Karen Sullivan, was deported August 1 and was en route back to the Twin Cities on Sunday. They were deported after Israeli officials, checking the internet for information about passengers arriving in Israel, discovered that they intended to visit the Palestinian territories, according to Jess Sundin of the Anti-War Committee.
Martin, age 69, lives in Minneapolis and is affiliated with Women Against Military Madness. She is a retired nurse and a mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Plotz, age 40, also lives in the Twin Cities, and is a teacher. (FULL DISCLOSURE: Katrina Plotz has written for the TC Daily Planet.)
According to Sundin, Israeli officials told the three that they were security risks and would not be allowed to enter the country. They were held at the airport and told to sign a paper that said they were leaving voluntarily. Plotz and Martin refused to sign, and were then jailed and told they would be handcuffed and forcibly deported, according to Sundin.
Sullivan was escorted onto a plane by armed guards at about 3:30 p.m., Minnesota time, on Saturday (11:30 p.m. in Israel). According to Sundin, the U.S. embassy in Israel said that Plotz and Martin may be put on a plane at about 3:30 p.m. Sunday.
The three were on a delegation hosted by the Union of Palestinian Women's Committees in Ramallah. The Anti-War Committee website described the delegation:
Hosted by the Palestinian Women's Committee in Ramallah, they will travel to various cities including Jenin, Bethlehem, and Jerusalem. The group will meet with human rights groups, union members, prisoners' rights advocates, and refugees. Delegates will witness living conditions under military occupation and extend our solidarity to Palestinian activists, organizers and community leaders.
Sundin said the U.S. embassy in Israel has been helpful in getting information, and that, " In fact, it was the embassy that first called to tell me that they are being held." She said that the embassy has not been concerned with helping to get "our desired outcome – the right to enter the country."

The schedule a marketing director uses to balance her YouTube side hustle with her full-time career
Marta Biino
Courtesy of Julia McNamee, ASMRxBABEE
This story is available exclusively to Insider subscribers. Become an Insider and start reading now.
Julia McNamee works a full-time job as the director of digital events for a media company.
She also has a YouTube channel with 50,000 subscribers called ASMRxBABEE.
Here's how she spends a typical day between meetings, event planning, and content creation.
Julia McNamee never aspired to be a full-time creator. Since she started making YouTube videos in 2010, she always considered filming a side hustle to complement her corporate career.
More than a decade later, McNamee, 28, works as the director of digital events for a media company in Philadelphia, for which she plans and markets medical conferences.
But outside of her 9-to-5, she's still creating ASMR videos, a type of relaxing, soothing content that has surged in popularity in recent years.
McNamee's YouTube channel, ASMRxBABEE, has over 50,000 subscribers, and she earns money from Google-placed ads on her videos as part of YouTube's Partner Program and brand partnerships.
She also has more than 500 "patrons" on Patreon , a subscription platform where users can access exclusive content from creators for a monthly fee. McNamee charges $5, $10 or $20 to subscribe to her content. A higher fee results in more videos or voice notes per month.
Her full-time job provides the bulk of her income, and she hopes to one day reach the C-suite of her company, she said. At the same time, YouTube and Patreon have become a consistent source of supplemental income for her, as well as a fun hobby.
At work, her manager and the majority of her colleagues are aware that she runs a YouTube channel and support the side gig, she said.
McNamee spoke to Insider about how she balances her jobs as a full-time marketer and a content creator. Here's a look at her daily schedule:
The day starts with checking analytics on the YouTube Studio app. McNamee checks the performance of her latest videos and responds to comments. Seeing her videos performing well always gives her a boost, she told Insider.
One of the main reasons McNamee can balance content creation and a full-time job is that she works from home.
"My commute to work is a short walk into the other room," she said. "I usually work in sweatsuits, so I'm not spending time 'getting ready'."
The bulk of her work day focuses on check-ins with her team, updates on projects, and brainstorming ideas for marketing initiatives or brand strategies.
In the morning, she may take a 15-minute break to check her emails regarding her YouTube channel to stay on top of brand sponsorship proposals and deals, particularly because she doesn't have a manager.
McNamee often takes only 10 or 15 minutes to eat her lunch. If she needs to, she'll spend the rest of her break recording short audio pieces for Patreon.
"Patreon for me is like a safe space," she said. "I can post anything without worrying about SEO or views. Everyone is just there for me, and I know they enjoy what I do. I can just be myself."
If she has time, McNamee will also hit the gym or take a walk around the block for some sunlight before getting back to work.
After lunch, she'll keep working for her marketing job, answering emails, communicating with speakers of events to plan conference content, and calling colleagues to discuss strategy.
McNamee has a weekly meeting with someone on her team from the media firm. Communication with her co-workers is crucial, McNamee said, especially in a virtual working environment.
At the end of her work day, McNamee sets aside some time to film for YouTube. Her office doubles as her studio, so she just needs to pull out her tripod, camera, and microphone.
She doesn't use any particular lighting or backdrop, as her audience tends to prefer a natural look.
"Doing ASMR is a life hack, I guess, because you don't need a lot," she said. "For the most part, you're just sitting there and whispering."
Her content is a mix of subscriber requests, trending stories, and what's easy to make.
"Because of my 9 to 5, I can't film content like vlogs, which take a lot of time to film and edit," she said.
Balancing also means understanding when to produce less content. When she began monetizing her videos in 2018, she would post on YouTube twice a week.
"I did that for about two years, and then I realized that it was too much, so now I only post once," she said.
Time to edit on iMovie and make thumbnails on Canva. If the video is not urgent, editing time can easily become a chance to relax with takeout and a glass of wine.
After a final email check, it's time for some TikTok or Netflix .
"I thrive on having this decompression time to myself," McNamee said.
Time to sleep.

I loved this book. Missing Grace is one of those books that is filled with so much emotion and hope. Once I started to read it I did not want to let go. For me personally it is a story that was so unique and honestly made me think because everything about it just felt so real.
Ben and Grace had sucha beautiful and amazing love. A love that everyone dreams of having. They met when they were kids, became best friends and then eventually lovers. Their love for each was so strong and so passionate. But one day it all vanished. Grace left for a business trip and never came back. He has never given up hope that one day they he will find her. There is no way he can move on with his life if Grace is not in it.
Three years later and Ben has still not found the love of his life, but fate intervenes in a really big way. The day that Ben has been waiting for is finally here. But will it be everything that he hoped it would be. Or will he lose hope all over again?
I don't want to really say too much about this book. I wanted to go into detail about the characters and what I loved but I honestly do not want to give anything away. The best way to read this book is t just go in blind. It will capture you from the very beginning and tust me you will not want to put this book down.
Missing Grace is a beautiful and powerful story that is filled with so much love and hope. The love that Ben has for Grace is beyond words. He is truly a man who loves with his whole heart and in such a passionate way. He is patient, loving, and kind. Your heart breaks for this man who has lost so much. At times I hurt for him but then times when Ms. Scott managed to sew the pieces of my heart back together.
SL Scott writes with so much passion and every part of this story flows perfectly. It never felt rushed or like it was too over the top. Everything about this book happened at the perfect pace. I loved the connections in this story, the love that you felt within the pages. I am not even sure I can put into words how much I loved this book. It is beautiful, powerful, passionate love story that will leave you wanting more and thinking about it for days. and not this is not a cliffhanger but just one of those books where you cannot get enough of these characters. Wonderful job by SL Scott.

45. International theatre artists protest attacks on the Freedom Theatre
August 19, 2011 by Michael Riordon Leave a comment
More than 260 artists and supporters of the arts have signed a public letter to Israeli authorities decrying the Israeli military's attacks on The Freedom Theatre in Jenin, a northern city in the West Bank, Palestine. The signatories include dozens of prominent playwrights, actors, directors, filmmakers, producers and theatre professors from the U.S., New Zealand, Israel, England and other countries.
The statement was hand-delivered today to the Israeli Mission in New York and the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C.
The U.S. artists include Pulitzer prize-winning playwrights Edward Albee and Tony Kushner; actors Susan Sarandon, Olympia Dukakis, Alec Baldwin, Mandy Patinkin, Kathleen Chalfant and Mercedes Ruehl; prominent theatre educators such as James Bundy of the Yale Drama School, and Catherine Coray and Mark Wing-Davey of the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University.
Their statement called the Theatre "a beacon for artistic expression, offering youth in Jenin a safe space in which to express themselves, and to explore their creativity and emotions."
The signatories urged the Israeli military authorities to release those arrested or make their charges public and to pay compensation for the buildings they damaged.
The protest follows an Israeli army attack on the Jenin-based theatre at 3:30 a.m. on July 27. Soldiers hurled rocks at the building, knocking out many of the windows. The theatre's facilities manager was arrested, along with the president of the theatre's Board, whose home was also damaged.
On August 5, Israeli forces blindfolded and arrested a 20-year old acting student, part of The Freedom Theatre's young acting troupe, at a checkpoint near Jenin.
"We have been very concerned about the health and safety of our colleagues since their arrests," said Constancia Dinky Romilly, president of Friends of the Jenin Freedom Theatre, a New York-based support group.
"Our supporters," Romilly continued, "have been calling the authorities in Jenin and in Washington, but no one has given us any information about their condition or the charges facing them, if there are any. This is a truly shocking attack on a cultural institution in Palestine and one more horrific example of what goes on in a country under occupation."
The full statement follows.
We the undersigned, members and supporters of the arts community, deplore the recent attacks in Jenin on The Freedom Theatre, its people and property. The Freedom Theatre is a beacon for artistic expression, offering youth in Jenin a safe space in which to express themselves, and to explore their creativity and emotions. The Theatre has the following admirable goals:
– To raise the quality of performing arts and cinema in the area.
– To offer a space in which children and youth can act, create and express themselves freely, imagining new realities and challenging existing political, social and cultural barriers.
– To empower the young generation to use the arts to promote positive change in their community.
– To break the cultural isolation that separates Jenin from the wider Palestinian and global communities.
To our dismay, the Israeli military attacked The Freedom Theatre in the Jenin Refugee Camp at 3:30 a.m. on July 27, 2011, hurling rocks at its building and damaging windows. During this raid, they arrested Adnan Naghnaghiye, the Theatre's facilities manager, and then went to the home of Bilal Saadi, the President of the Theatre's Board in Jenin, and arrested him after damaging his home. Charges against them have not been made public.
On August 6, 2011, while at a checkpoint crossing with members of the Theatre's acting troupe, soldiers of the Israeli military arrested, handcuffed and blindfolded Rami Awni Hwayel, a 20-year old third-year acting student.
Calls to the military authorities to get information about all three have yielded no information.
We call on the Israeli government either to make public any charges against the three Freedom Theatre personnel or release them immediately. In addition, we insist that the Israeli military pay damages for the destruction to the Theatre and to Mr. Saadi's home.
We call on all supporters of the arts everywhere, including our fellow artists and supporters of the arts in Israel, to support The Freedom Theatre as an inspiring source of cultural understanding and artistic hope and to demand that attacks against it cease.
Friends of the Jenin Freedom Theatre

Opticians need a variety of tools to achieve the best eyeglass fit.
Opticians use laboratory instruments for measuring, and precision hand tools for doing detail work, especially repairs. Usually your employer will provide the basic tools, but if you don't have good close-up vision, you might want to consider buying your own hands-free magnifier to spare yourself from eye strain and frustration when working on tiny eyeglass frame parts.
The lensometer – also called a lensmeter or vertometer -- is the prima donna of the optical laboratory. It measures how light passes through a lens. You can use this tool to determine the prescription of the lenses the patient is wearing when she comes in for an eye exam, which gives the doctor a useful starting point for the vision test. You also should use the lensometer to cross check new eyeglasses when they come in from the lab, to make sure the prescription matches what you ordered.
When a patient orders new glasses, you use a pupilometer to determine the distance between the center of his nose and each pupil. Back in the bad old days, opticians simply used a metric ruler to do this, but the pupilometer gives a much more accurate reading, down to one-half of a millimeter. The patient holds the instrument from one side and looks into it as if using binoculars. An eye hole on the other side allows you to match up a measuring line with the center of each pupil. This measurement helps ensure the lens is cut to fit into the frame with the optical center directly over the patient's pupil.
Repairs are a big part of an optician's job. Eyeglass frame manufacturers use different sizes of screws, washers and nuts, so you need an assortment of very small screwdrivers in both flat-head and Phillips styles to work on hinges, which are one of the most common repair issues. Optical hex wrenches are essential for tightening nuts on the back of "frameless" eyeglasses, where the temples are attached directly to the lenses by a nut-and-bolt assembly inserted through holes drilled into the lenses. It's a great minimalist look, but it takes serious dexterity to assemble the tiny pieces.
Eyeglass frames rarely fit a patient perfectly on the first try and, even if they do, patients tend to knock their frames out of alignment by wearing them on their heads, rolling over on them when sleeping, or being a little too slow when a small child reaches for the pretty glasses. Optical pliers specially designed for specific parts of the frame, such as the nose pads, temples and end pieces, will help you bend the frame into the most comfortable position for the patient.
Plastic frames can snap if you bend them when they're cold. Frame warmers gently heat the frame so that you can bend it safely. They come in a variety of formats, including hot air blowers and boxes with beads or sand set over a heating element. You place the portion of the frame you wish to bend into the warmer until becomes pliable enough to bend easily. Be sure to cool the frame before giving it back to the patient!

From Exhausted Grouchy Teen to 4.0 GPA Honor Student
Serena Rose had always been an exceptional student who had demonstrated leadership qualities. But now in her early teens, she had become cranky, irritable, and was tired all the time.
While some parents might have just chalked this up to teen hormones, laziness, or a poor attitude, Serena's mother Jenny suspected more was at play.
As a small child, Serena had suffered from stomach problems. A specialist had recommended a strong course of cleansing, and to give her whole wheat instead of white bread products, and had left it at that.
However, she now seemed to be having increasing difficulty with certain foods, as well as stomach and joint pain, irritability, and extreme tiredness. Fortunately, her family had previously used Dr. James Neuenschwander, Director of The Bio Energy Medical Center. Dr. Neuenschwander is an M.D. who specializes in alternative medicine. Jenny set up an appointment for Serena.
After a lengthy consult, Dr. Neuenschwander ordered a hair mineral analysis through Analytical Research Labs. In addition, he ordered blood work, including an IgG antibody test for food allergies through Genova Diagnostics. Tests revealed that Serena had 44 different food allergies, celiac disease, and leaky gut syndrome. She was dangerously low on many vital nutrients as a result of the leaky gut, and was also suffering from chronic inflammation, kidney, liver, and adrenal stress.
Dr. Neuenschwander immediately placed Serena on a restricted diet, eliminating the foods she was most severely allergic to, and allowing others in rotation. She was completely restricted from wheat and all foods containing gluten. Additionally, Serena was given a comprehensive regimen of vitamins and minerals to bring her nutrient levels up to normal. She was also prescribed L-glutamine to help heal her damaged gut.
On the home front, Jenny spent hours researching gluten and allergy-free diets and foods. Many hours were spent experimenting in the kitchen devising tasty gluten-free recipes. It was a big adjustment for the whole family. Just keeping Serena's schedule of supplements straight was a big job.
Within only a few weeks, Serena and her family saw dramatic improvements. Suddenly, this formerly fatigued and grouchy teen was full of energy and good spirits. She was bursting with ideas of fun things to do and ways to improve things on the hobby farm where she and her family lived. The family was absolutely amazed at the rapid and positive changes they saw.
The following autumn, well on her way to vibrant health, Serena, who had been homeschooled on and off for several years, decided to enroll in the local high school for her freshman year. She immediately became an honor student and was on the dean's list. This once-tired teen was now participating in a variety of extra-curricular activities. From there she attended Washtenaw Technical Middle College (WTMC), a charter high school. She was a member of the Phi Beta Kappa honor society and graduated with honors, a high school diploma, and an associate's degree.
Due to her academic excellence, Serena was also able to win a partial scholarship and grant money for college. From WTMC she was accepted into the Honors College at the University of Michigan, where she graduated in 2016 with a degree in neuroscience.

Same(ish) Script, New Cast
It's a holiday weekend here at Lottery Trend headquarters, and it looks like Lotto Texas and Powerball decided to take it easy on September 3rd. We didn't see any callbacks to a time pre-smartphone. The big draw of the night was that the winning Patterns from Wednesday's drawing repeated for both lotteries. Not only that, the Specific Order for Lotto Texas had a repeat as well.
Lotto Texas
Saturday's winning numbers were 11, 15, 19, 46, 47, and 49, making this the 717th appearance, and encore of the {3-2-1} Pattern.
Winning Texas Lotto Numbers from lotterytrend.com.
With 1374 Lotto Texas drawings to date, the {3-2-1} Pattern has now played 52.2% of the time and sits comfortably as Lotto Texas's most commonly played Pattern.
The Specific Order of the night was a 2 1 3 and with its 108th appearance, it has now played in 15.1% of the drawings in which the {3-2-1} Pattern has played. When looking at all 1374 drawings, this becomes 7.86% of the time.
Remember, both the {3-2-1} Pattern and the 2 1 3 Specific Order had just played in Wednesday's drawing.
The {2-1-1-1-1} retained its recently reclaimed title as Most Commonly Played Pattern with 7, 39, 50, 59, 67, and PB 25.
Winning Powerball numbers from lotterytrend-powerball.com.
With its 35th appearance out of 96 Powerball drawings, the {2-1-1-1-1} has now played 36.5% of the time.
Unlike the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern, the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order did not appear in Wednesday's drawing. Instead, it made its first appearance since July 20th. With its 16th appearance, and with 35 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has played, the [1-1-1-2-1] has played 45.7% of the time. This becomes 16.7% of the time when we look at all 96 drawings.
Last, but not least, we come to the debut of the 1 0 1 1 2 1 Specific Order. With its first-ever appearance, and with 16 drawings where the [1-1-1-2-1] General Order has played, the 1 0 1 1 2 1 Specific Order has played 6.25% of the time. Looking at the 35 drawings where the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern has played, the 1 0 1 1 2 1 Specific Order has played 2.86% of the time. Finally, this becomes 1.04% of the time when taking all 96 Powerball drawings into account.
Will Lotto Texas and Powerball continue to take it easy, or will we see both of their Most Commonly Played Patterns go for a three-peat?

Windmill to receive critical facelift, bringing back 'former glory'
Alaska, Online, Spenard, The Spenardian, Uncategorized
Originally published in The Spenardian.
Sitting in the Koot's parking lot is arguably one of the largest — both physically and figuratively — symbols of Spenard. The ornamental windmill, decorated with lights of green, red and white looms over the neighborhood.
"I didn't think it would become the icon it is today," former owner of Chilkoot Charlie's, Mike Gordon said. "I thought it was cool. It was a pretty neat landmark, but no, at the time I didn't envision it being on t-shirts or used as a symbol."
However, the symbol is starting to show some natural wear and tear. Gordon said the windmill could use some love. In its current state, the wood is starting to rot and the lights that line the windmills legs hardly work, Gordon said.
"If you ever saw it when all the lights were on, on the legs through the tail, and the spokes were working — in other words, if the whole thing was working the way it was supposed to — it was a rare moment," Gordon said. "There was usually something wrong with it."
Cue Rod Hancock and his company, the founding owners of the Moose's Tooth empire. They are the technical owners of the windmill. In an email, Hancock said the owners just recently decided to get the windmill back in working order.
"We have just recently decided to rebuild/refurbish the windmill this summer so that the lights and structure will shine again in all its former glory," Hancock said.
Hancock said he didn't have an exact schedule ready, but it will be completed in 2019.
The windmill is roughly over 60 years old. It has been sitting in the same parking lot since the 1980s, but it began its life in Alaska in the early 1960s.
Anchorage businessman Byron Gillam owned a liquor store on East Fireweed Lane. In the early 1960s, he was traveling in Southern California when he discovered a DIY windmill kit. Gillam bought the kit and installed it in front of his liquor store, the Kut Rate Kid.
The windmill lived on East Fireweed Lane for many years, with different owners as years passed. By the 1970s the windmill was in the hands of a local character Mike Von Gnatensky, better known as "Mafia Mike." He told Gordon he would donate the windmill to him if he paid to have it moved to his parking lot.
"[Mike] had a pizza place in midtown he was going to move it to," Gordon said. "But, he asked around and people said Mike Gordon will buy anything."
Part of the contract also noted that a plaque be placed on the windmill forever honoring Mafia Mike's donation. Gordon said is cost around $10,000 to move the windmill from East Fireweed Lane to its current home in Spenard.
"It was a nightmare," Gordon said.
The windmill was installed in the Koot's parking lot in the early 1980s, shortly after Chilkoot Charlie's was established. The plaque went missing shortly after the move, but the windmill is here to stay.
Chilkoot Charlie's hosted a celebration several years after the windmill was moved to the parking lot. Gordon didn't know the specific date but said it was around 1989 or 1990. The community gathered at the party to fill a 55-gallon drum with neighborhood memorabilia. The drum was buried under the windmill and remains unearthed today, about 30 years later. He doesn't remember what he put inside the drum, but Gordon said it was probably a selection of Chilkoot Charlie's memorabilia. Gordon said there was no set date for the time capsule to be opened. There are no current plans to unearth the time capsule.
There was a time when Spenardians might have lost its neighborhood icon. Bob Gillam, son of Byron Gillam and well-known Alaska investor, had made offers to Gordon on the windmill. Growing up around his father's business, Kut Rate Kid, Gillam wanted the windmill as a memento to put on his family's property near Lake Clark. Gordon said he would sell it as long as the Gillams could replace it, to make sure Spenard wasn't without a windmill. Gillam passed away last fall; the deal never went through.
The windmill currently stands above the Spenard Farmers Market every summer as well as the Spenard Food Truck Carnival. These events use the windmill as a landmark to let locals know the events are "under the windmill."

Abraham Alexander "Bram" Marbus (born 16 April 1972) is a Dutch former professional footballer who played as a striker. His brother Cees also played professional football for Go Ahead Eagles, among others.

Career
Born in Noordwijk, Marbus began playing in the youth department of VV Noordwijk alongside players such as Edwin van der Sar, almost reaching the top tier for under-19 teams. After a serious car accident in May 1991, in which Marbus suffered a broken spine, among others, his football career seemed to over before it even started. A successful surgery followed, however, and a season later he was signed by Excelsior. Strong in the air, Marbus excelled as a striker in the second-tier Eerste Divisie, and would make his debut with Sparta Rotterdam in the Eredivisie during the 1999–2000 season, after stints at Cambuur and Go Ahead Eagles in the Eerste Divisie. At Sparta, he was part of a team which beat Ajax 3–0, and where Marbus scored one of the goals, as well as a 1–2 away win against Feyenoord in De Kuip. After three seasons, he eventually left the club in 2002, after new head coach Frank Rijkaard preferred other players in attack, including Houssin Bezzai, Murat Mazlum and Kenneth Cicilia.

Marbus retired from professional football in 2005 as part of Go Ahead Eagles, where he played alongside his brother Cees. He then returned to VV Noordwijk. This would however prove unsuccessful. Due to a chronic inflammation of his toes, his performances in the first team were often limited to late substitutions.

Retirement
After his football career, Marbus began working as a real estate agent at Van der Meer Makelaardij.

In February 2009, Marbus suffered a cardiac arrest which he survived. He had an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) implemented afterwards.

He has a wife, Marcella, and two sons, Ruben and Levi.

2019-20 Game Notes
Nell Fortner Camps
Jackets Open Homestand Welcoming Virginia Tech Sunday
THE FLATS — The Georgia Tech women's basketball team opens a two-game homestand on Sunday, welcoming Virginia Tech at 2 p.m. on ACC Network Extra.
THE STARTING FIVE…
1. Georgia Tech returns home for a pair of games after playing four of the past five on the road. Tech welcomes Virginia Tech to Atlanta for just the sixth time in program history. Fans can also listen live on WREK 91.1/WREK.org or watch on ACC Network Extra.
2. Georgia Tech leads the all-time series 9-5 and has taken three straight over the Hokies and nine of the past 10. After opening the all-time series back in 2003 dropping the first four meetings, the Yellow Jackets have dominated the Hokies since.
3. Tech erased a 22-point deficit at Virginia to force overtime, but it wasn't enough, dropping a one-point decision to the Cavaliers. The Jackets look to snap a five-game skid.
4. Zaire O'Neil led the Jackets in Charlottesville, recording her first double-double of the season behind 24 points and a career-high 14 rebounds. O'Neil has scored in double-figures now in the past four games and six of the past seven.
5. Head coach MaChelle Joseph is in her 14th season on The Flats and carries an all-time career record of 265-171. Joseph is the all-time winningest coach in program history and holds the highest winning percentage in Yellow Jacket history at 61.4 percent.
A WIN WOULD…
-Move Georgia Tech to 14-9 on the season and push its home record to 9-4
-Mark the fourth straight win over the Hokies and 10th in the last 11 meetings
-Move the all-time series record to 10-5 in favor of the Yellow Jackets
-Snap a five-game skid and give the Jackets their third ACC win this season
-Mark Coach Joseph's 266th career win at Georgia Tech and give Georgia Tech its 641st all-time program win
LAST TIME THEY MET
Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech met last season in Blacksburg on Feb. 4. The Jackets took the decision 51-34 with two people scoring in double-figures including returning senior Katarina Vuckovic who led the team with 15 points. Tech won the rebounding battle 36-32 and hit 10-of-15 free throws while shooting 37.3 percent from the field. The Jackets utilized 18 Hokie turnovers, converting the miscues into 21 points. Virginia Tech was held to at 25.5 percent shooting clip for the game and a 21.1 percent (4-19) effort from three-point range.
Georgia Tech erased a 22-point deficit holding Virginia to 15 second half points and forced overtime, but it was not enough as the Jackets dropped their fifth game in a row in overtime. Zaire O'Neil posted her first double-double of the season behind 24 points and 14 rebounds, matching her career-high in scoring and setting a personal-best in rebounding. Tech shot 50.0 percent in the second half and held the Cavaliers to less points in second half than they scored in the first quarter. Katarina Vuckovic drained a three-pointer late in overtime to give the Jackets their only lead of the game, but a 6-of-11 effort at the charity stripe, including missing two to end the game, sealed the loss.

Lemons first came to Japan some 150 years ago, and have since been blended with Japanese citrus fruits to create brand-new types. We journey to a tiny island in the Seto Inland Sea where some 25% of Japanese lemons are grown and discover its unique, lemon-friendly climate and topography. We also see the surprising ways lemon farmers use lemons in Japanese cuisine from tempura to hot pot. Last but not least, we pucker up for some delicious lemon-based sweets.

Q: How to make words into a category. (NLP) I love to eat chicken.
Today I went running, swimming and played basketball.

My objective is to return FOOD and SPORTS just by analyzing these two sentences.  How can you do that?
I am familiar with NLP and Wordnet. But is there something more high-level/practical/modern technology??
Is there anything that automatically categorizes words for you, into "levels"?
More importantly, what is the technical term for this process?

A: That problem is difficult to solve procedurally, but much progress has been made in the area lately.
Most natural language processing begins with a grammar (which may or may not be context free.) Its a set of construction rules stating how more general things are made out of more specific ones.
example context free grammar:
Sentence ::= NounPhrase VerbPhrase
NounPhrase ::= ["The"] [Adjective] Noun
Adjective ::= "big" | "small" | "red" | "green"
Noun ::= "cat" | "man" | "house"
VerbPhrase ::= "fell over"

This is obviously oversimplified, but the task of making a complete grammar to define all of english is enormous, and most real systems only define some subset of it applicable to a problem domain.
Once a grammar has been defined, (or learned using complicated algorithms known only to the likes of Google) a string, called an "exemplar" is parsed according to the grammar. which tags each word with the parts of speech. a grammar that is very complex would not just have the parts of speech you learned in school, but categories such as "Websites" "Names of old people" and "ingredients".
These categories can be laboriously built into the grammar by humans or inferred using things like Analogical Modeling or Support Vector Machines. In each, things like "chicken", "football", "BBQ", and "cricket" would be defined as points in a very high dimensional space, along with millions of other points, and then the clustering algorithms, would define groups just based on the positions of those points relative to each-other. then one might try to infer names for the groups from example text.
link text
This Google search lists several techniques used in NLP, and you could learn a whole lot from them.
EDIT
to just solve this problem, one might crawl the web for sentences of the form "_ is a _" to build up a database of item-category relationships. then you parse a string like above, and look for words that are known items in the database

A: The question you ask is a whole area of research called topical text categorization. A great overview of techniques is "Machine learning in automated text categorization" in ACM Computing Surveys, by Fabrizio Sebastiani.. One of the simplest techniques (though not necessarily the best performing) is to have numerous (hundreds) examples of sentences in each category, and then train a Naive Bayesian classifier on those sample sentences. NLTK contains a Naive Bayesian classifier in the module nltk.classify.naivebayes.

A: Google Sets does some of this, and there is some discussion that mentions supersets.  However, I have not really seen any technical details in there, just ideas and discussion.
Maybe this could at least help your research...

A: You might take a look at WordNet Domains resource by people from FBK. It is an extension of WordNet which is designed to be used for text categorization and word sense disambiguation. It allows varying degrees of granularity.
http://wndomains.fbk.eu/
One of the possible ways to apply it to your task might be to get NP-chunks out of your sentences, get their head words and from them get the categories from WordNet domains.

A: Tenqyu solved it using Python and Machine Learning.

*

*Have a dataset of text

*Apply Tf-idf vectorization .
The weight of a term that occurs in a document is simply proportional
to the term frequency. (The Luhn Assumption 1957)
The specificity of a term can be quantified as an inverse function of
the number of documents in which it occurs.

*A Vector Space Model

*Multinomial Native Bayes Classification

Following his 2008 release in Crónica, Filare, Jan Ferreira presents his new work Shattering Silence, 14 tracks totalling over one hundred minutes of music.
Jan Ferreira is one of the most promising Portuguese new composers of hands-on electronic music, creating his pieces from a limited palette of tools and resources, including the manipulation of feedback, analog synthesis and distortion. His pieces have deep roots in live performance, and that imbues them with a characteristic immediacy and freshness, as traces of his creative touch and direct manipulation are felt throughout the pieces.
In this release I worked for the first time with analogue synthesis. It was new territory so I spent long time exploring timbres and textures and what especially drew my attention was the "sharpness" of sound as if one could sense its outlines like with forms and shapes. Also how sounds emerged and 'cut' through the air was of special interest to me. After recording the material it was put into composition with emphasis on the effect of layering certain sounds (and hence what depth or sense of contrast they create) and the feeling of change that occurs when the "sound scenery" shifts. The composition then was more a frame in which these things were allowed to occur (especially in the more abstract pieces) than a linear narrative. All this is also based on a general visual quality that sound conveys to me.

Communist Hungary escapee, WSU alumna honored
Helen and John Szablya, center, with their family.
The Szablyas after 1956 escape.
SEATTLE, Wash. – Helen M. Szablya and her family in the 1950s made two dangerous but unsuccessful attempts to escape communist Hungary.
Faced with the threat of prison, the Szablyas armed themselves with false identification and made a third run for the border in 1956. The family, including three small children, rode a train to Sopron, then hiked for miles across rugged terrain, finally crossing the Austrian border.
The Szablyas first immigrated to Canada, but later moved to Pullman, Wash., and became naturalized U.S. citizens. Helen's husband John Szablya served as a professor of electrical engineering at Washington State University from 1963 to 1982. Together they reared seven children, and Helen also attended class part-time for six years, earning her bachelor's degree in 1976 in foreign languages and literatures.
The family moved to Seattle in 1982, after John retired from WSU and went to work as a consultant for EBASCO, then a private engineering firm, and taught part-time at the University of Washington.
On July 4, 2011, some 500 immigrants from more than 80 countries were ushered in as new U.S. citizens at a Seattle Center ceremony. During the two-hour meeting Helen Szablya was honored with the 2011 Ethnic Heritage Council Spirit of Liberty Award. The honor is given each year to a naturalized U.S. citizen for outstanding contributions while maintaining his or her ethnic heritage.
"When we escaped from Hungary and my husband and I looked back to our native land for the last time, little did we know that not only would we return there, but that I would represent this country as consul general of my new country," Szablya told the Seattle crowd.
In December, she traveled to Washington, D.C., for an annual meeting of honorary and career consuls, where she and others met for an extended period with Hungarian President Pál Schmitt.

It is still a mystery as to what caused abscesses to engulf the lungs of Ashely Hayes' dog, Blaze, but the 7-year-old is now back in good health thanks to the persistence of his owners and the care he received at WSU.

Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection PS5 Releases On 28 January
Published on : Disember 8, 2021 Published by : hooi
Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection was first announced back in September. It would be released on the PS5 and PC, but there were no release dates, until now. On the official blog, PlayStation has announced that it will be first coming to the PS5 on 28 January.
The blog post also outlines some of the improvements that you can expect from the Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection. As with most PS5 games these days, you get a choice of Fidelity Mode or Performance Mode. The former prioritises 4K resolution at the cost of locking frames to 30fps. The latter does the opposite, locking frames at 60fps at the cost of resolution. Then there's Performance Plus Mode, locking resolution at Full HD, but gives you 120fps.
Source: PlayStation.
As mentioned, the Collection will be available on 28 January. As for its price, it's pegged at RM209. It's also worth noting that if you're looking to get their standalone component games for the PS4, they're not available digitally anymore. Now, you can only get them bundled, much like the collection itself, but for the price of RM169.
Despite all these details, there's no details as to when the Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection will be released on PC. All that Sony Interactive Entertainment has to say is that more details will be revealed later.

Evangelism is not only misunderstood, it is often unpracticed. Many Christians want to share the gospel with others, but because those Christians don't grasp the fundamentals of witnessing, they feel intimidated and incapable of sharing the truth of the gospel.
Yet those believers fail to recognize that God has already established who and how we are to evangelize. In The Gospel and Personal Evangelism, Dr. Mark Dever seeks to answer the four basic questions about evangelism that many Christians ask: Who should we evangelize? How should we evangelize? What is evangelism? Why should we evangelize?
In his answers Dever draws on New Testament truths and helps believers apply those truths in practical ways. As readers understand the fundamentals of evangelism, they will begin to develop a culture of evangelism in their lives and their local churches.


In The Case Against Mormonism, Vol. 2, we show that the papyri have nothing to do with Abraham or his religion. Now that it is plain that these papyri are pagan documents, Mormons must look elsewhere for the origin of the temple ceremony. We feel that at least part of the temple ceremony came from Freemasonry. In fact, the similarities between the temple ceremony and the ritual of the Masons are rather startling. Before we discuss these, however. we are going to discuss the controversy regarding Masonry which took place in Joseph Smith's time.
The Preparation for Mass Casualty is a drill designed to establish a learning environment for players to exercise emergency response plans, policies, and procedures as they pertain to a mass casualty incident involving children. A drill is used to validate a single specific operations or function of a single agency/organization and can be used to practice/maintain skills. This Exercise Plan (ExPlan) was produced at the direction of the Department of Homeland Security with the input, advice, and assistance of the Preparation for Mass Casualty planners.


The quest, the dream, the creed!
And not the sons of men?
From "Herbs" by Lizette Woodworth Reese.
The meltdown of Christian stances in the moral fields is happening with head-spinning speed. This post is from a professor at Baylor University. God have mercy. Looks like we need to include assisted suicide in our statements and our witch hunts. (See previous entry.) Gotta love the reference to "enlightened Christians" who think suicide isn't sinful unless done for "purely selfish reasons." Condescend much, Prof. Olson?
Her beauty, with her face a little flushed and her hair ruffled, took him freshly by surprise. This shock of surprise was in all real beauty, he thought. If one was not surprised it was only a counterfeit.
Elizabeth Goudge, The Dean's Watch, p. 310.
The painting below, by artist Timothy Jones, hangs on my wall. It was finished by commission this summer.
It has been on the wall now for almost exactly a month. As the days move into the full glory of a Michigan autumn with much sunshine, welcome in the house to take off the chill, the glowing picture of oranges and strawberries seems somehow to grow more important.
No doubt it is partly the fact that I'm still not used to having it there at all, but many is the time in the last two weeks that I have looked up in the midst of thinking of something else entirely--often something boring or vexing--and have been caught by it, like the Dean in Goudge's book, taken freshly by surprise.
If you have lived any length of time in this world you know what it is like first to be a child, to take in beauty with your full attention and without self-consciousness, then to lose that ability to be captivated, then to regain it, but only in fits and starts. We are creatures, in the words of T.S. Eliot, "distracted by distraction from distraction." It is a great grace to have one's whole attention captured by something lovely and to sense its quiddity, its "whatness." It seems to me that this is where Jones's genius lies as a painter--in drawing attention to the "whatness" of good things. See Oak Leaf 1, for example, or Oranges and Raspberries, Psalm 104, and others. These pictures can give the viewer, for a moment, the opportunity to forget the self, simply to see what is there, and to feel in some way, difficult to explain, that that moment of seeing is all that matters. Jones's use of light accentuates the significant object; the light "tells" the viewer that he is right to see this thing as important, for the light rests upon it. It is only sunlight, natural light. But can sunlight ever be "mere" or "only"? The light shines in darkness, and the darkness cannot overcome it.
If we are lucky, we have these moments of clear vision sometimes in relation to nature--a shaft of sunlight cast across a church nave, blue tree shadows on the snow on a winter's evening, a translucent leaf green against a blue sky. It doesn't happen nearly often enough. One cannot command such seeings, nor sustain them by one's own power. They come when they will, the wind that bloweth where it listeth.
Nor can the visual artist capture vision in the sense of "canning" it and making it available at will. What the work of art provides is an opportunity.
My thanks to Timothy Jones for his work on the painting I own and on all the others out there. May there be many more of his works in this dark world in the years to come.

"She is young, passionate and keen to work towards a fairer society, where all are equal and young people have opportunities to thrive.
"Liberal Democrats are fighting to reverse all school cuts and give education the funding it needs.
"I look forward to working with Jo on the many issues facing North Devon, and will be asking her to come visit us in the near future."


What knife do you use out in the Bush?? I've had a few TBH and currently I use a Fallkniven F1.
Hi All here is my collection of knives. I made them all. Most all are L6 steel with the exception of an M4 Steel blade.
I personally will carry a kukri and a smaller knife.
Nice knives Philip. How long does it take to make a small knife like your 5th from the bottom knife with the light brown handle?
I like the kukris too.
My flat mate just pulled a kukri from under her moms house. It had been under there for about 10 years. Her dad bought it when he worked in Nepal. She gave me the kukri to clean up and polish so she can display it. I haven't started to work on it yet but I was slicing up note paper with it like a razor. Not bad for a knife that has not been used in 10 years.
Yes, most of those Nepal Kukri i read somewhere that they are made from old Mercedes Benz leaf springs.. 5160 steel..
The knife is made from an old file. First I anneal the steel, grind to shape then re harden , temper for two hours , clean it . then put the handles on. All in all about 5 hours.
Are you a knife maker too?? I am currently making couple of knives in 01 steel. I picked up the knife steel from Auckland last week.
Hi Dave here is another knife I made recently. Just my version of the Mora knife. Its made from a fully harden bar of M2 High Speed steel , ( chipper blade).. Its got good edge holding.
Looks good mate. I don't make knives myself. I am only just starting out in bushcraft and learning about knives and everything else.. I have bought more knives than I will ever need but someone keeps making new ones so I will probably keep shopping lol.
Mate you should try and give it a go, nothing more satisfying than making and using your own blade.
Plus its a lot cheaper too.
Over the years, I've used a few. Currently - since it's an old favourite - I use a Mora (Frost) the most. It can be used as a striker for fire-steels (spine of the blade); skinning, carving and cutting with the first third of the blade and for splitting modest logs with the body of the blade (using another log as a 'hammer' and the knife as the 'wedge'). It's easy to sharpen and holds a good edge.
Others that have proven to be useful/serviceable/well-priced/durable have been the Swiss Army Knife Soldier's Model; British Aircrew Survival Knife (Wilkie); and Kukhris (sourced in Nepal).
I don't believe you have to spend a fortune to get a good one; nor feel inadequet (or not properly equipped!) if you don't have the (so-called) 'best' high-spec, famous-person-endorsed model. A good formula for an all-round decent knife might well be: good steel blade; a full tang; 3"- 5" hollow ground blade with a drop-point; Rockwell Hardness (RHC) in the mid to late fifties; a moulded plastic or shaped-wood handle (with allowance for a wrist-loop or lanyard) and a durable, easy-drain/clean scabbard with (ideally) a knife-securing/locking strap.
I just started Bushcrafting for the last few months and have just started carving and whittling but i have found that the Ole Hickory 7" Butchers knife to be fairly good, great qualities too for $40, 1095 High Carbon, strikes a ferro rod, not too big or small for my hands ( I have gorilla hands) not the best for whittling and carving as their are other purposeful and built items but overall a decent inexpensive knife.
I carry the SOG Force Tactical Survival Knife, Schrade Frontier Fixed Knife Leather Sheath SCHF42 and the Survival Knife With LED Torch / Fire Starter / Belt Cutter / Window Breaker.
