Pettersson nets OT winner as Canucks rally for wild 7-6 victory over Canadiens
Visiting Habs held 4-0 lead after first period
Dec. 5, 2022 10:35 p.m.
Elias Pettersson scored 13 seconds into overtime and the Vancouver Canucks completed a 7-6 comeback victory over the visiting Montreal Canadiens on Monday.
The Habs (12-11-2) took a 4-0 lead into the first intermission but the Canucks (11-12-3) roared back with five unanswered goals in the second and third periods.
Vancouver's Ilya Mikheyev scored twice in regulation, while Andrei Kuzmenko had a goal and a helper. Conor Garland, Bo Horvat and Jack Studnicka also scored for the home side and Pettersson notched a pair of assists.
Nick Suzuki had a goal and an assist for the Canadiens in regulation, while Cole Caufield, Sean Monahan, Michael Pizzetta, Christian Dvorak and Josh Anderson also found the back of the net. Jordan Harris registered two assists.
Canucks starter Spencer Martin struggled in net, stopping 5-of-9 shots before getting the hook late in the first period. He was replaced by Collin Delia who stopped 14 shots. Sam Montembault had 25 saves for the Habs.
The result capped a four-game homestand that saw the Canucks go 2-2-0 with back-to-back overtime wins.

Pettersson ended the extra frame quickly, sending a blistering shot through Montembault's pads for his 12th goal of the season.
Kuzmenko forced overtime with a backdoor tip-in 18:35 into the third. J.T. Miller put the puck on the Russian rookie's stick and notched his 300th NHL assist on the play.
Montreal retook the lead with three minutes left on the clock when Anderson's shot went off Delia's pad. The rebound bounced out, pinging off the skate of Vancouver defenceman Quinn Hughes and into the net.
Dvorak evened the score 15:23 into the third, redirecting in a Evgenii Dadanov pass from the top of the crease to tie the game.
Studnicka gave Vancouver a 5-4 lead 8:49 into the third. He picked off Montembault's clearing attempt behind the Habs' net and sent a shot up and under the crossbar before the goalie had a chance to get set back in his crease.
Mikheyev levelled the score 5:45 into the third when Pettersson sliced a pass across the crease to Mikheyev and he fired a sharp-angle shot past Montembault for his second goal of the game.
The Canucks scored a third unanswered goal a minute and 43 seconds earlier when Horvat batted in a rebound for his 20th goal of the season.
Mikheyev cut Vancouver's deficit to 4-2 before the end of the second. Stationed below the goal line, Pettersson dished a puck to the Russian winger, who popped it in for his seventh of the season.
Garland got the home side on the board 16:44 into the frame after Montreal's Arber Xhekaj fell in the offensive zone. Left alone in front of the net, Garland put a wrist shot up and over Montembault's left pad.
The strike snapped a 17-game goalless drought for the Canucks winger.
Vancouver controlled play early in Monday's contest, outshooting the visitors 8-0 five minutes into the game.
But it was the Canadiens that made the shots count, erupting with four goals in the opening frame.
Caufield was first on the board, blasting a slap shot from the bottom of the faceoff circle past Martin for his 14th goal of the season 7:49 into the first.
Less than five minutes later, Suzuki doubled the lead moments after the Habs killed off a penalty. The speedy centre beat Quinn Hughes to a puck and raced the Vancouver defenceman deep into Canucks' territory where he released a wrist shot that caught Martin's outstretched pad on its way into the net.

Montreal went up 3-0 when Monahan tipped Suzuki's pass in from the top of the crease 14:57 into the period and Pezzetta put away his first of the season 80 seconds later, sending a backhand shot past Martin after stealing the puck off Vancouver's Tyler Myers in the slot.
The Canucks pulled Martin following the 4-0 goal. Delia came on in relief, making his first appearance for Vancouver.
SUZUKI STREAKING
Suzuki extended his point streak to three games, with two goals and two assists across the stretch. The Canadiens captain leads his team in points with 28 (14 goals, 14 assists) on the season.
The Canadiens close out a four-game road swing against the Kraken in Seattle on Wednesday. The Canucks take on the Sharks in San Jose the same night.

Following active infection, herpes viruses establish a latent infection in sensory and autonomic ganglia of the nervous system. The double-stranded DNA of the virus is incorporated into the cell physiology by infection of the nucleus of a nerve's cell body. HSV latency is static; no virus is produced; and is controlled by a number of viral genes, including latency-associated transcript.[70]
Signs and symptoms of dehydration usually warrant going to a hospital's emergency department. Infants, especially under 6 weeks of age or if the infant appears to slow urine output or decrease fluid intake, should be evaluated by their pediatrician or in an emergency center if oral sores appear. Individuals with immune suppression (for example, patients undergoing chemotherapy, HIV patients, or cancer patients) should contact their doctors if they suspect a HSV-1 infection.
"Someone having HSV doesn't mean that they were reckless or irresponsible with their sex life," says Sara, age 30. "I used condoms with all my partners, and I still caught it." For Jamie, who contracted herpes from her husband three years into their monogamous relationship, he was her first and only sexual partner. And she says that he contracted it from one of his very first sexual encounters. No matter how and why someone contracted the virus, it doesn't erase their humanity and right to respect.
If not treated immediately, it has potential spread to other parts of the body. Being highly contagious in nature it gets readily transmitted by sharing utensils, clothes, and toothbrush. Maintaining sexual contact, kissing and touching also leads to the spread of virus. It is likely to spread more when the virus is present with physical outbursts. It is less contagious if the virus is present without any outward physical signs.
The annual incidence in Canada of genital herpes due to HSV-1 and HSV-2 infection is not known (for a review of HSV-1/HSV-2 prevalence and incidence studies worldwide, see Smith and Robinson 2002). As many as one in seven Canadians aged 14 to 59 may be infected with herpes simplex type 2 virus[85] and more than 90 per cent of them may be unaware of their status, a new study suggests.[86] In the United States, it is estimated that about 1,640,000 HSV-2 seroconversions occur yearly (730,000 men and 910,000 women, or 8.4 per 1,000 persons).[87]
"When you are having an outbreak of oral herpes, symptoms usually start with a burning, itching or tingling sensation on your lips," Michael says. "This will intensify until a small rash, and then blisters, appear. These sores are commonly called 'cold sores'. The blisters are usually filled with a clear or slightly yellow liquid. Over a short time, these blisters will burst leaving a painful, raw area. These will then dry and scab over. The scabs will generally fall off after a week or two, leaving fresh clear skin beneath."

Q: Conundrum - need to get viewport size in PHP (or any other way around it) Basically, I currently have a site that's written in javascript, but I've decided to rewrite in mainly PHP. The main bit I'm replacing uses spry to read values off an xml dataset into javascript variables.
PHP with mySQL can easily take on the jobs I'm using spry for, but there's one other part of the script I'd like to make server-side.
What currently goes on is that as the page loads, my function decides what size a picture should be, and therefore what size to get on the server. There are five files of different sizes, and it chooses the smallest one where it doesn't have to upscale (but it can downscale). It combines this with some information from spry, and sets the src of an img element, which is not previously set (this is part of what I hate about my current setup).
I've done my googling, and I know the problem - PHP parses server-side, at that point it can't know the screen size.
I can do without - I would either keep my existing javascript for this task, which is a bit unstable, or just use one size of image, which would just make my site not as good.
I'm just wondering if any expert has a trick up their sleeves for having php decide which image to embed. I'm guessing there's nothing the browser sends when it first requests the site.. that woulda showed up in my googling..
I should mention, I've not done any PHP apart from a simple thing where there's a tab bar on all pages of my site, and I use php to bring it in and change the appearance of the selected tab.

A: There is actually a simpler way to do this. You can set up css media queries to load a different image based on viewport width.
PHP doesn't know much about the client. Getting information like viewport sizes is difficult.

A: You have a few options:
Option 1: output a simple page with some JS that gets the browser specs and then does a redirect, passing those specs along as query args. e.g.
http://example.com/stage2.php?x=1024&y=768
This stage2 script can then build the real page based on the passed-along specs.
Option 2: Use some AJAX lazy loading. Primary content of the page gets the specs, passes them back via an AJAX call, and the response is the rest of the HTML, adjusted to reflect those specs. e.g
$('#body').load('example.com?x = ' + window.width + ......);

Book Club#26: "Before Frank" by Charles Moriarty
Amy Winehouse 4EVER! Before FRANK is a photography book that portrays the artist Amy Winehouse in the months leading up to the release of her debut album FRANK. The book consists of images from two shoots, one in London and the other in New York. Only a few of these images have been seen previously, the majority have remained unpublished – until now.
Find out more and support the artist: kickstarter.com/projects/1876964816/before-frank
"I am raising funds so that I can finally bring this series of work into the public's view. I truly believe it is a special documentation of Amy that portrays her honestly, and shows us her true self before recognition and fame. I hope that this book will allow for these important memories to remain alive with Amy's fans. Although I remember this time with Amy well, when I look at these images I can't help but smile, you can see the freedom and joy of youth in them; they are also a reflection of my life at the time, and were key to my development as a professional photographer.
Asif Kapadia, director of the Oscar-winning documentary "AMY", will be writing the foreword. The book will be designed by the award-winning Dutch designer Sybren Kuiper.
Focus on: Łukasz Horbów
"Over the years I have seen thousands of images of Amy, by brilliant photographers from all over the world, but Charles Moriarty's photos stood out." — Asif Kapadia (extract from the foreword)
With your support we hope to create a beautiful photography book that enriches Amy's story, and to organise an exhibition in London to accompany the book launch. Within the pages of Before FRANK lies a story untold, unique moments in the life of an Icon, lost to us at too young an age, and who's voice touched millions of people around the world." – Charles Moriarty www.beforefrank.com

An Acknowledgement of Paternity (AOP) is a legal document in which a child's father is identified by the unmarried mother and father. If the AOP meets the requirement of District law, it establishes the child's father without the need to go to court. The relevant District law is DC Official Code § 16-909.01(a)(1).
The easiest way to complete the AOP is to do it at the hospital or birthing center after the child is born. Staff there will help parents complete the AOP and notarize it. They also will file the AOP with Vital Records Division of the Department of Health. If you child is already born, you can go to either Vital Records Division or the Child Support Services Division. At both locations, staff will explain your rights and responsibilities, help you complete the AOP, notarize it, and have it filed.
Both parents must swear the information on the AOP form is true.
Parents will be asked to provide photo identification.
Signing an AOP is easy and free.
Both parents must sign the AOP in the presence of a notary public.
The AOP must be notarized by the notary public who witnesses the parents' signatures.
The form must be fully completed, typed or hand-written in ink, and legible.
It is possible to rescind an AOP, but there is a time limit.
The parents' marital status and the circumstances of the child's birth must permit them to establish paternity through an AOP. Generally, this means that the child must be born in the District and the parents must not be married or in a registered domestic partnership.
Further, if the mother was married when the child was born, she cannot complete an AOP with another man. For example, if Susan was married to John at the time her baby was born even though Robert was the biological father, Susan and Robert are not allowed to sign an AOP for the baby. Both parents must be given written and oral information about alternatives to, legal consequences of, and the rights and responsibilities that arise from signing the AOP. The oral information may be given through a video or audio media.
A man should not sign an AOP unless he is sure that he is the child's biological father. If you are not sure whether you are the father, have genetic testing done before signing. Private testing costs at least $300. If there is a child support case opened, testing can be done through CSSD. If the results show a man is the father, there is a nominal fee associated with the genetic testing. If the results show a man is not the father, there is no cost.
There are legal consequences to signing the AOP, including being responsible for the child's financial support, and those legal consequences should only be taken on by the child's biological father. If you know that you are not the father, do not sign the AOP. If you still want to be the father, you can discuss adoption with an attorney.
There is no fee to complete an AOP. However, the Vital Records Division charges a fee to get a copy of a child's birth certificate.
Signing the AOP does not guarantee either parent visitation or custody. But a man who does not sign the AOP or otherwise have paternity established has no legal right to visit or get custody of his child.
Any parent who is not living with his or her child (who is under 21 years of age in DC) can be ordered to pay child support. If a signed AOP exists and the father does not live with the child, the father named on the AOP can be ordered to pay child support.
Persons with no social security number should write "999-99-9999" in the space on the AOP.
Neither the father nor the mother have to be US citizens or in the US legally to sign the AOP.
A notary public (or notary) is a person who is authorized by the District to "notarize" documents. The notary verifies that the person who signs a document is the person identified in the document. The notary does this by looking at the person's identification and witnessing the person sign the document. An AOP is not considered complete unless both parents' signatures are notarized.
The notary public will ask for proof of identify. It is up to the notary to decide sufficient proof of identity. Generally, any government-issued identification is acceptable, including a driver's license, a state-issued identity card, a passport, school identification, or a military ID. The identification should be current, as a notary may decide not to accept an identification that has expired. Utility bills may not be used to prove a person's identity.
CSSD will work with military families in getting an AOP for a child. For individuals stationed overseas, CSSD may send written and audiovisual materials, arrange to speak with potential parents and answer questions, and request that a commanding officer or a chaplain witness the signatures.

Murder in the Bayou: Who Killed the W...
Murder in the Bayou: Who Killed the Women Known as the Jeff Davis 8?
The Painted Porch Bookshop
Ethan Brown (Paperback)
Between 2005 and 2009, the bodies of eight women were discovered around the murky canals and crawfish ponds of Jennings, Louisiana, a bayou town of 10,000 in the heart of the Jefferson Davis parish. The women came to be known as the Jeff Davis 8, and local law enforcement officials were quick to pursue a serial killer theory, opening a floodgate of media coverage and stirring a wave of panic across Jennings' class-divided neighborhoods. The Jeff Davis 8 had been among society's most vulnerable—impoverished, abused, and mired with mental illness. They engaged in sex work as a means of survival. And their underworld activity frequently occurred at a decrepit no-tell motel called the Boudreaux Inn.
As the cases went unsolved, the community began to look inward. Rumors of police corruption and evidence tampering, of collusion between street and shield, cast the serial killer theory into doubt. But what was really going on in the humid rooms of the Boudreaux Inn? Why were crimes going unsolved and police officers being indicted? What had the eight women known? And could anything be done do stop the bloodshed?
Mixing muckraking research and immersive journalism over the course of a five-year investigation, Ethan Brown reviewed thousands of pages of previously unseen homicide files to posit what happened during each victim's final hours. "Brown is a man on a mission...he gives the victims more respectful attention than they probably got in real life" (The New York Times). Murder in the Bayou is the story of an American town buckling under the dark forces of poverty, race, and class division—and a lightning rod for justice for the daughters it lost. "A must-read for true-crime fans" (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

Фёдор Егорович Курицын, (1853, Московская губерния — 18 сентября 1906, Ташкент) — народоволец (изменник), ветеринарный врач МВД РИ, статский советник. Убит в результате террористического акта

Биография и профессиональная деятельность
В 1874 году будучи студентом Харьковского ветеринарного института примкнул к революционному кружку, составленному из студентов-донцов, получал нелегальные книги от М. М. Серебрякова. С 20 сентября 1874 года находился под жандармским надзором в Харькове. 19 февраля 1876 года был освобождён за недостатком улик, скрывался на юге России. Арестован 1 апреля 1877 года в Николаеве по делу Гориновича. Был заключён в Одесский тюремный замок, активно стал сотрудничать с жандармами против своих бывших товарищей революционеров.

Провокация

В декабре 1879 года в одесскую тюрьму был переведен Григорий Гольденберг. Курицын был помещен в одну камеру с ним. Пользуясь тем, что Гольденберг на воле знал о народовольческой деятельности Курицына, тот вошёл к нему в доверие и, умело выспрашивая, получил важную информацию о ключевых деятелях партии. Кроме того, он по поручению товарища прокурора Добржинского незаметно подвёл Гольденберга к странной идее «раскрыть глаза» правительству на благородство целей «Народной воли». 9 марта 1880 года Гольденберг написал показание на 70 листах, где упоминались 143 народовольца. Эта информация позволила Департаменту полиции арестовать множество народовольцев (см. Процесс шестнадцати (1880)). Гольденберг, осознав содеянное им, повесился в тюрьме 15 июля 1880 года. Курицын же, подав прошение о помиловании, в январе 1880 года был выпущен под надзор полиции.

Дальнейшая биография

Team Fortress Classic (TFC), also known as Team Fortress 1.5, is a title in the Team Fortress series of games.
Team Fortress Classic is a class-based multiplayer online first-person shooter video game developed by Valve and published by Sierra Studios. A port of the Team Fortress mod for Quake/QuakeWorld, Team Fortress Classic was originally released for Windows on April 1, 1999, as a mod for Half-Life and based on the Half-Life Engine (Gold Source Engine). A standalone version was later released on January 16, 2003. The development of Team Fortress Classic was led by John Cook and Robin Walker, two of the three designers from Team Fortress.
The game itself involves a number of teams, each with access to ten classes, competing in a variety of modes such as Capture the Flag, Control Points, and Escort. In June 2000, the game underwent a significant upgrade, adding new player character models and game modes. As of 2003, the game was one of the ten most played Half-Life mods according to GameSpy.[1] Today, as with its predecessor, Quake Team Fortress, it is not very active, and as such, there are few servers with humans on them, and bots prosper in the majority of servers. Your server browser can pick up at most 100 or more servers.

7 History of Team Fortress Classic
Before Team Fortress Classic, there was Team Fortress – a 1996 mod for Quake/QuakeWorld. After that success, Team Fortress Software wanted to begin work on Team Fortress 2 as a mod based on the Quake II Engine, but later joined Valve and ported Team Fortress as a mod for Half-Life called Team Fortress Classic, released on April 1, 1999. Despite the company's 1998 statement that Team Fortress 2: Brotherhood of Arms would be released "soon", the game remained in development in one form or another for eight years until its release on October 10, 2007, and had been on Wired magazine's top ten vaporware list every year since 2001. The designers of Team Fortress had been tasked with developing Team Fortress 2 on the Half-Life 1 Engine (Gold Source Engine), but they instead remade Team Fortress using that engine to help demonstrate its moddability.
Since Team Fortress Classic's release in 1999, Valve has introduced various changes into the game. The updates tweaked the game's balance and on occasion added new content, such as new levels. A particularly large update was released on June 8, 2000, introducing several new levels and game modes, a new GUI menu interface, new player models, and optimizing the game's net coding for smoother, faster play.

Team Fortress Classic revolves around two or more teams competing in a variety of game modes with players typically selecting one of ten classes. Players usually have the choice of two equal teams, Red and Blue, although certain game modes allow for more than two teams with access to different classes. The way a player acts in a game is defined by which class they select, with each class having their strengths and weaknesses. As such, Team Fortress Classic relies heavily on teamwork between players of different classes.
Main article: List of game modes (Classic)
Team Fortress Classic supports several types of play, with distinct objectives for teams of players to pursue.
A group of Blue players attacks the Red base on the 2Fort map.
On Capture the Flag maps, the objective for both teams is to capture the enemy flag and return it to their base while preventing the opposing team from doing the same. Some maps of this type have twists on this formula, such as having multiple flags and requiring a team to capture them all or requiring a team to perform a task such as disabling security grids before being able to access the flag.
Standard maps have both teams trying to capture the enemy's flag until the point limit is reached or the time-limit expires. They must prevent their enemy from achieving the same.
Football maps feature a common flag, or in most cases ball, that has to be pushed onto an enemy capture point.
Reverse maps have the opposing teams bringing their flag to the enemy base and then capturing the flag in the enemy base.
Variant maps feature limitless possibilities. Official maps of this typology feature multiple common flags that are centrally located, as on Flagrun, or a match that takes place for each team entirely within the enemy base, as on Rock 2.
Control Point maps have two main types of game modes.
Standard maps consist of several command points that must be captured, typically either by standing on the command point or bringing a flag to the command point. Teams are awarded points at set intervals for each command point they control.
Attack and Defend
Attack and Defend maps, a variation of Control Point maps, feature one team trying to capture several command points in sequence while the other team defends each command point from capture.
In Escort maps, the players are split into three teams – a single VIP, the VIP's Bodyguards, and a group of Assassins. The goal of Escort maps is for the Bodyguards to escort the VIP to a given point on the map while the Assassins attempt to kill the VIP before he gets there.
The original models for nine of the ten player classes.
Community-made
In addition to the official game modes released by Valve, community-made maps can create new modes of play. For example, Murderball features a King of the Hill-style game featuring a common ball in which points are tabulated by keeping the ball for as long as possible while the three other teams try to take it from you.
Main article: Classes (Classic)
New (left) and old (right) models.
There are ten standard classes in Team Fortress Classic. Each class is equipped with at least one unique weapon, and often armed with a secondary weapon such as the Shotgun or Nailgun. In addition, all classes are armed with a melee weapon – usually the Crowbar – as well as Grenades that have a variety of effects depending on the class the player has chosen. On Escort maps, a single player can assume the role of the Civilian, armed only with an umbrella, who must be escorted by the rest of the team across the level.
The Scout is the fastest class in the game but is unable to take much damage in return. The Scout is armed with a nailgun as well as being able to use caltrops and concussion grenades to slow down and confuse opponents.
The Sniper class is armed with a high-powered Sniper Rifle and can be used to attack enemies from distant positions.
Soldiers are significantly slower than Snipers and Scouts, but possess better armor and are armed with rocket launchers that allow them to rocket jump, along with combat shotguns as sidearms for backup. Rocket jumping, while useful for moving about the battlefield, also significantly damages the Soldier. Soldiers can also make use of nail bombs to cause more damage within close quarters.
The Demoman is armed with a Grenade Launcher for indirect fire onto enemy positions, and a Pipe Bomb launcher for booby trapping places as well as being equipped with a demolition pack capable of opening or closing certain routes on some levels.
The Medic is equipped with a super nail gun, concussion grenades and a medical kit that can be used either to heal teammates or expose opponents to a contagious infection that drains health.
The Heavy weapons class is armed with a powerful Minigun and can sustain more damage than any other class. However, the heavy is significantly slower than other classes.
Pyros are equipped with a Flamethrower and an incendiary Rocket Launcher, both of which can set enemies on fire. The Pyro also carries several napalm grenades for the same purpose.
The Spy differs significantly in style from other classes, with the class possessing the ability to take on the appearance of any other class on either side. The Spy is equipped with a knife to kill enemy players in one hit by stabbing them in the back as well as a tranquilizer gun to slow down opponents and hallucination gas to confuse them. Spies also possess the ability to feign death, allowing them to use their backstab ability more effectively.
The final class is the Engineer. A defensive class, Engineers build structures to support their team, such as Sentry Guns to defend key points, ammunition Dispensers, and a teleporter. Engineers have the ability to replenish a teammate's armor by tapping them with their spanner. In addition, the Engineer is armed with EMP grenades that detonate any explosive ammunition within its range, as well as a Shotgun for backup.
Main article: List of maps (Classic)
On the original page for the Engineer Update, a screenshot of the original Team Fortress Classic class models, as well as a young Dell Conagher standing next to the Engineer from Team Fortress Classic, can be seen. This, as well as the Sniper's Civilian bobblehead having the Team Fortress Classic logo on its base and the Catch-Up comic, confirm that Team Fortress Classic and Team Fortress 2 take place in the same universe, with TFC taking place in the 1930s.
Unlike Team Fortress 2, Team Fortress Classic contains several references (and re-used content) from Half-Life, the most striking of which was the Hunted map. Instead of being a remake of the original Hunted President from Team Fortress, it was a conversion of a segment of the Half-Life campaign which involved navigating past several Sniper nests. No such official content has been made for Team Fortress 2, and in fact, one map shares a name with the original Half-Life Deathmatch map, but has otherwise nothing in common.
Fortress Forever was created to port the gameplay and mechanics of Team Fortress Classic over to the Source Engine and give the owners of Source games the ability to experience the Half-Life 1 Engine (Gold Source Engine) Classic. It is the most popular mod fulfilling this function as of yet, but gameplay and mechanics are slightly different from the original.
On August 24, Team Fortress' birthday, grenades will be replaced with presents if the tfc_birthday cvar is set to '1'.
From A Cold Day in Hell to The Naked and the Dead, the Classic Team was featured as antagonists in the official TF2 comics.

This child has grown a bit schizophrenic of late, though, with one part focused on recipes and cooking, family and neighborhood news, human nature and the amiable musings of a happy homebody. But another, more fiery side returns again and again to politics and democracy, the state of modern Christianity, current culture wars and similar edgy subjects.

49ers Announce Several Roster Moves
The San Francisco 49ers announced on Wednesday that they have placed DB Jimmie Ward on the Injured Reserve List, signed OL Bryce Harris to a one-year deal and promoted CB Greg Mabin to the active roster from the team's practice squad. The team also signed DB Tyvis Powell to the team's practice squad.
Harris (6-6, 300) originally entered the NFL after signing with the Atlanta Falcons as an undrafted free agent on April 30, 2012. He spent part of his rookie season on Atlanta's practice squad before signing to the New Orleans Saints active roster on September 10, 2012. He appeared in 34 regular season games (four starts) along the Saints offensive line from 2012-14, as well as two postseason contests in 2013. In 2015, Harris was waived by the Saints and claimed off waivers by the Atlanta Falcons on September 6, 2015, where he appeared in one game. Last season, he spent time with the Falcons, Jacksonville Jaguars and Miami Dolphins, but did not see game action.
Harris re-signed with the Saints on May 22, 2017 and appeared in two games this season. After his release from New Orleans on October 18, he signed with the Detroit Lions the following day and was later released from the team on October 26.
A 28-year-old native of Tulare, CA, Harris attended Fresno State where he started in 39 consecutive games after converting to the offensive line from defensive tackle during his redshirt freshman season.
Harris will wear number 64.
Mabin (6-2, 200) was originally signed to the team's practice squad on October 18, 2017. He entered the NFL after signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as an undrafted free agent on May 1, 2017. Following his release from the Buccaneers on May 8, he signed with the Buffalo Bills on June 1. On September 12, he was waived by the Bills and later signed to Buffalo's practice squad on September 14. He made his NFL debut against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 5 where he registered one pass defensed following his promotion to the active roster on October 7. He was waived by the team on October 16.
A 23-year-old native of Fort Lauderdale, FL, Mabin attended the University of Iowa where he appeared in 38 games and registered 144 tackles, 19 passes defensed, three interceptions, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.
Mabin will wear number 26.

Expert Review of Vaccines
The Evolving History of Influenza Viruses and Influenza Vaccines
Expert Rev Vaccines. 2013;12(9):1085-1094.
Abstract and Introduction
Early Influenza Vaccination
The Early Inactivated Vaccines
Virus Production & Purification
Circulation of Influenza Virus & Selection of Vaccine Strains
New Developments for Influenza Virus B Vaccines
Recommendations for Vaccination of Specific Subjects
Five-year View
The isolation of influenza virus 80 years ago in 1933 very quickly led to the development of the first generation of live-attenuated vaccines. The first inactivated influenza vaccine was monovalent (influenza A). In 1942, a bivalent vaccine was produced after the discovery of influenza B. It was later discovered that influenza viruses mutated leading to antigenic changes. Since 1973, the WHO has issued annual recommendations for the composition of the influenza vaccine based on results from surveillance systems that identify currently circulating strains. In 1978, the first trivalent vaccine included two influenza A strains and one influenza B strain. Currently, there are two influenza B lineages circulating; in the latest WHO recommendations, it is suggested that a second B strain could be added to give a quadrivalent vaccine. The history of influenza vaccine and the associated technology shows how the vaccine has evolved to match the evolution of influenza viruses.
In 1933, 80 years ago, the first human influenza virus was isolated after propagation in ferrets, followed shortly afterward by research on an influenza vaccine.[1] Memories of the deadly influenza pandemic in 1918 were still very present and the disease caused fear. The discovery of the causal agent and the possibility of manipulating it in the laboratory opened the way to new means of investigation and progress.

Box 1. Current nomenclature for influenza viruses (WHO 1980).
The formal nomenclature for the designation of influenza viruses was revised and published by the WHO [43].
The full and correct nomenclature includes:
The type of virus (A, B or C);
The host of origin (except for human);
The geographic site of isolation:
The strain number;
The year of isolation (four-digit year for viruses isolated in 2000 or later; two-digit year for viruses isolated during the 1900s);
The subtype [16 possible hemagglutinin and 9 possible neuraminidase subtypes].
Thus, a type A virus isolated in 1995 in Memphis Tennessee with a strain number of 123 and an H5N1 subtype is designated:
Influenza A//Memphis/123/95 (H5N1)
Institut Pasteur, Paris, France +33 146 568 264 chann@club-internet.fr
Influenza virus was first isolated 80 years ago in 1933.
The first influenza vaccine was a monovalent live-attenuated vaccine, which was used in Russia until recently.
In 1940, a second strain of influenza virus was isolated; this was named influenza B and the first strain was named influenza A.
During the Second World War, the first inactivated vaccine was produced by the U.S. army and started to be used widely in 1944, particularly for the American troops in Europe and was then extended to civilians in 1945.
In 1947, the vaccine was unexpectedly less efficient; it was discovered that the antigenic composition of the circulating virus had changed and antigenic drift was discovered.
Two surface proteins, HA and NA, determine the antigenic properties of influenza virus strains.
In 1958, a new strain of influenza A with different HA and NA was identified and antigenic shift was discovered; the need for a trivalent vaccine was recognized.
Technical advances have made it possible to produce reassortant strains between wild-type viruses (for their antigenic properties) and culture-adapted strains (for their replication properties).
Since 1973, the WHO issues recommendations for the composition of influenza vaccines, based on worldwide surveillance systems and the prediction of the most likely strains to be circulating; since 1999, they issued separate recommendations for the northern and southern hemispheres.
In 2013, the WHO recommendations included a second influenza B strain allowing countries to decide to recommend a trivalent or a quadrivalent influenza vaccine.

LONDON (AP) With royalty on and off the field at Greenwich Park, Britain ruled the Olympic equestrian events at the London Games.
The British won three of the six medals, including golds in team show jumping, team dressage and individual dressage. And, of course, silver in team eventing - with Queen Elizabeth II's granddaughter, Zara Phillips, competing for the host nation.
"I hope it doesn't end here. I hope it's the start of the team evolving," said Britain's Laura Bechtolsheimer, who rode Mistral Hojris for the British dressage team. "We've been watching on the telly how the crowds have been. The crowds have been carrying the athletes. We got to experience that ourselves, and it's a groundbreaking day."
The most attention was focused on Britain's eventing team when it won silver. With plenty of royal relatives in the crowd, Phillips galloped with her team to second place behind Germany, the start of Britain's most successful equestrian Olympics.
Prince William, second in line to the British throne, his wife, the former Kate Middleton, Prince Harry and Prince Charles' wife Camilla all came to watch. Zara's mother, Princess Anne, presented the medals.
Politics provided some of the sideshow with Ann Romney, wife of U.S. presidential candidate Mitt Romney, in London to cheer on Rafalca, a dressage horse she co-owns. Rafalca and rider Jan Ebeling finished 28th out of the 50 horses entered here and the U.S. dressage team finished sixth.
"She was consistent and elegant," Romney said of Rafalca. "She did not disappoint. She thrilled me to death."
The campaign issue of Romney's personal wealth supporting an Olympic horse accentuated the impression that equestrian sports are only for the wealthy. Although many of the riders come from middle-class backgrounds, they are often supported in their Olympic ambitions by wealthy sponsors.
However, the issue of expensive horsepower and its effect on Olympic results came to the forefront when the team from Saudi Arabia won bronze in show jumping. Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz Al-Saud, one of the world's richest royals, provided ample funding for the team over the last two years, ensuring the best horses and trainers were made available to chase medals in London.
In other golds, Steve Guerdat of Switzerland, riding Nino des Buissonnets, won the individual show jumping and Michael Jung, aboard Sam, took individual gold in eventing. British rider Charlotte Dujardin, riding Valegro, won the individual dressage.
American riders were shut out from the medals after winning three at the 2008 Beijing Games, including team gold in show jumping.


Duloch Nursery is self-contained within the Duloch Primary School and Community Campus. It has a separate secure entrance and comprises two large rooms with shared kitchen and toilet facilities. There is a quiet room - which is also used as our music room - a parents' room and an office. The completely enclosed garden and safe surfaced play area within the grounds of the Primary School playground is accessible from both nursery rooms.
Our nursery can accommodate up to 160 children.
