I Have Nine Female Disciples Chapter 1260
Daqian mine burial seems to be in endless void, and it seems to fall on the abyss.
Looking from a distance, there are rugged rocks and mists rising up.
There is no entrance to the Daqian mine burial, just because you can enter from any direction.
It's just that, before, there were guards from all major academies and the holy dynasty nearby, and you can only enter with the token of the holy dynasty.
But today is different.
The Holy Emperor was beaten away, and the people of the Holy Empire naturally retreated.
As for the people from the major academies, they did not want to intervene in this matter, and they all retreated.
Now, this big thousand mine burial is equivalent to the third giant in the black market!
"Be careful, there may be a big problem here." Jiang Chen Hepingba has entered the Daqian burial and is slowly advancing along a path formed by strange rocks.
The road at first was very wide, but it didn't take long for the all around the strange rocks to rise up, and the road gradually moved towards downward.
About half an hour later, the two really entered the Daqian mine burial and entered a mine.
The inside of the mine is not as dark as it can be seen from the outside world. It is very bright and gentle, just like an underground hot spring zone.
However, Jiang Chen stopped as soon as Hepingba entered the mine.
Because there is a stone tablet standing in front of them, and the four characters "Do not get close to the living" are written on the stone tablet!
At the same time, near the stone tablet, there are many dead bones scattered, some of them are kept intact, even if they are dead, they give people a lifelike feeling, as if they are still alive.
There are also only residual limbs and broken arms, and the fleshy body is broken.
But what is strange is that there are no signs of fighting around here!
This means that these creatures died directly after entering this place. I don't know if they encountered something ominous!
"It's a little weird, be careful." Jiang Chen said solemnly and glanced at the few well-preserved corpses. Judging from the breath of the corpses within the body, these are obviously emperors!
As an emperor, suddenly died here, and there is no trace of a fight, then… the danger and weirdness of this place is indeed shocking!
Suddenly, Pingpachi's expression condensed, and he saw a grass moving not far ahead!
To be precise, it is walking!
Look carefully, this half-human dark-green grass, with its roots like legs, is walking slowly not far away.
Even, it seemed to look back at Jiang Chen Hepingba, and then stretched out a blade, and waved at Jiang Chen Hepingba.
"Is this immortal medicine!?" Jiang Chen's eyes were green, and he took a subconsciously step and crossed the stone tablet!
In an instant, there was a roar all around, and then a huge Killing Formation appeared!
"It turns out that there was Killing Formation!" Jiang Chen was relieved. No wonder that many people died here, and there were no traces of fighting. It turned out that they all died in Killing Formation!
However, Formation is the same thing for Jiang Chen!
I saw him standing in place and never moving, his eyes were indeed radiant. After a few breaths, Jiang Chen's rune and formation mark dazzled!
"Subdue!"
Along with the surging of rune and formation mark, Jiang Chen's fingers clicked out one after another, and one after another brilliance fell on every corner of Killing Formation.
I didn't wait for Killing Formation to start, this Formation turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared invisible!
"Your Formation accomplishments… are indeed amazing." Heihachi exclaimed.
"Read more and learn more." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chen's face suddenly turned black!
It's just that after seeing Jiang Chen breaking the Killing Formation, the little grass stretched out three pages, like three fingers.
Then, this grass raised a middle finger to Jiang Chen Hepingba!
"You can't make it so good!?" Jiang Chen's face was dark, and as soon as he was about to charge ahead, he saw that grass disappeared instantly!
It escaped into the ground without leaving a trace of breath, it was gone!
"You said…Is this immortal medicine?" Pingba asked, "This grass always feels weird."
"Don't let me meet Here!" Jiang Chen said solemnly, was actually despised by a blade of grass!
If he encounters this again, he has to pull it up as a belt!
"You said…what is buried in it?"
"I don't know, maybe there are some living things buried, maybe… there really is some mine."
Next, Jiang Chen Hepingba moved forward slowly, taking every step carefully, not dare to be careless!
But what is strange is that an hour later, the two of them walked to the deepest part of the mine, and they had already reached the end, and they had never encountered any danger.
Could it be said that the only danger in this big thousand mine burial is the big Killing Formation from the stone tablet?
If this is only the case, how did this great burial come from?
"Something is wrong." Jiang Chen frowned: "Don't you think this big thousand mine burial is too safe?"
"Is this still safe?" Pingba was not angry. Said: "The previous big Killing Formation, even the emperor will fall, if you don't have too much knowledge in the array, we will die there just now!"
"But…this is the Great Thousand Mine Burial, that's it A big Killing Formation guardian, don't you think it's a bit too trivial?" Jiang Chen asked in confusion.
As soon as these words came out, Pingpachi rolled the eyes and said angrily: "Please, Transcender can't enter here, and the Killing Formation can easily suppress and kill the emperor, and most people enter the Daqian mine. , Who can survive from that big Killing Formation?"
"It makes sense, but I always citrus…weird." Jiang Chen whispered.
sou!
Suddenly, there was a sky-splitting sound, and then a green light moved towards Jiang Chen flying towards Jiang Chen!
Look carefully, this is a sword glow of jade green, the green one makes people panic!
"Who!?" Jiang Chen lightly shouted, and the silhouette hurried back, but he didn't dare to shake the sword glow.
The same is true for Pingpachi, moving horizontally one after another, which avoided the sword glow.
Then the two looked at each other, and they saw shock and fear in each other's eyes!
Only because the power contained in the sword glow just now is too terrifying, as if it can annihilate everything!
"Damn! It's it!"
After a few breaths, Jiang Chen's face was dark, and he saw the grass again!
At this moment, that little grass seems to be looking at Jiang Chen and Heping.
At the same time, the sword glow of jade green flashes all over his body. The sword just now was shot by this guy!
"The two little boys are good, they can avoid my sword."
At this moment, the grass spoke with an old-fashioned appearance.
Without waiting for Jiang Chen to speak, this little grass said again: "It would be nice to be a bookboy for me."
"What a…a grass Speaking." Jiang Chen was stunned, poking at Pingba next to him, and asked: "Have you ever seen grass talking?"
"See you for the first time." Pingba shook his head and saw ominous beast Demonic. When beast speaks, even the weakest grass can speak!

Winters History
The Winters Express
The first Express came off the press in February of 1884
Edwin C. Rust was the founder of the Express, with the first issue coming off the press on February 1, 1884. Rust, who was formerly with the Solano Republican, came from a newspaper family and his father published a paper in Marysville called the Daily California Express. Edwin wrote in one of the early editions of the Winters Express that he named the paper after his father's paper in Marysville.
The Marysville California Express was printed from 1851 to 1866 and in E. C. Kemble's "History of California Newspapers," published by the Sacramento Union in 1858, Kemble wrote: "The Marysville California Express was established by R. Rust & Co., November 3rd 1851. Its editors from the commencement have been R. Rust, J. R. Ridge, A. C. Russell, present editor. The Express is the oldest living paper in Marysville, and through started neutral in politics, was very early attached to the Democratic faith, in which it has since remained. In 1856 it opposed the action of the Vigilance Committee."
Rust operated a real state and insurance business on the side and owned the Express until July, 1896 when he sold the paper to Frank H. Owen, who had been working for the St. Helena Star as a printer. Some of the original equipment purchased by Mr. Rust in starting the Express, is still in use at the Express.
Mr. Rust began running the following ad under the masthead on April 25, 1896: "This paper for sale. The Express is offered for sale. To a practical man, wishing a good safe business, this is just the opportunity for an investment."
The advertisement ran continuously until July, 1896 when Mr. Owen came over from St. Helena and although he said later that he was broke from a previous business venture, he managed to borrow enough money locally to buy out Rust.
Rust left Winters and moved to Jackson, Amador County, where he published a paper. A local in the Express on July 25, 1913 reported that he was employed at that time on the Pacific Grove Daily Review. A brief personal item in the Express on March 19, 1926 mentions that "Mrs. Edwin C. Rust of Berkeley visited the Express office. Her late husband established the Winters Express."
Owen and his son Walter ran the paper until March 6, 1908. When they bought the paper, it was located in the west half of what is now the Winters Opera House, then known as the Seaman Building. Under their management, a new building was constructed at the northwest corner of First and Main, to house the Express. This building was being used by Drs. Corbin and Ernie Young and Dr. J. R. Sellers at the time it was sold to make room for the new Bank of America building.
Frank Owen, a staunch Republican, was appointed postmaster in 1900 and turned the paper over to Walter Owen to manage. The postmaster's job was originally to go to Charles Sinclair, but his untimely death left the appointment open and it was offered to Mr. Owen.
The son, Walter, married one of Rev. H. C. Culton's daughters, Sally, and the Owens lived here until 1908 when the elder Owen's health began to fail and they moved to Southern California, selling out to F.C. Hemenway.
In those years, the paper was printed on a Washington hand press, one page at a time, with the type inked by hand each time a sheet of paper was placed in position. While on a visit to Winters in 1955 Walter recalled that the type was all set by hand, a letter at a time, and among the typesetters working at the Express at the turn of the century were Mrs. Alice Rice, Miss Marie W. Riesback, Mrs. Walter R. Chapman and Mrs. Charles S. Chambers. He described Mrs. Rice as the fastest typesetter he had- she could set three columns of type a day. Mrs. Chambers preferred to work in the post office and set type only when the postal work was slack or when the typesetting work was behind schedule.
During the Owen tenure, several competing newspapers sprang up in Winters.
A local Methodist minister, Rev. B. J. Waugh, started a paper called the Winters Independent in 1896, primarily to support William Jennings Bryan's quest for for the presidency. Following Bryan's defeat, he sold the newspaper to Frank Cluff, who continued to operate it for a few years, but sold out to the Express before the turn of the century.
The next newspaper founded here was much stronger opposition to the Express. In 1906 Lawrence Wilson, a prominent local rancher, businessman, politician and attorney, started a twice-a-week paper called the Yosolano Citizen.
Wilson had served in the state legislature, married into the Wolfskill family and was an astute businessman. He operated the Yosolano Citizen for two years until his friend, F.C. Hemenway bought the Express, after which he sold out to the new Express owner.
The Yosolano Citizen was a well-equipped paper and this equipment was added to that of the Express.
Long Tenure
Mr. Hemenway took over the Express in March, 1908 and owned it for 37 years, lacking one month. He was a native of Chicago, moved to Kansas with his family in the late 1870's and arrived in Winters in 1887.
He was a member of the first graduating class of Winters High School in 1895 and attended the University of California at Berkeley. Fred returned to Winters and taught school in Buckeye, Union and Fairfield districts and was principal of the Winters Grammar School for one year.
Hemenway left school teaching to work with Lawrence Wilson on the Yosolano Citizen and then moved over to the Express. During his long tenure, he also served as postmaster and developed extensive ranching interests.
Twice in the 1920's, Hemenway leased out the paper for a year, so he could devote his time to his farming, but each time he returned at the end of the year to resume the editorship. In his later years as owner, his son Harvey managed the paper.
Active in community affairs, Fred Hemenway was at various times a member of the city council, secretary of the High School board of trustees, leader of the Winters Municipal Band, one of the founders of the Winter Growers, was active in the organization of the Winters Exchange Club and the Winters Service Club, which later became the Chamber of Commerce, and was on the advisory board of the local branch of Bank of America.
He sold the paper to Walter Stark on December 15, 1944 to devote his time to farming. In addition to ranches here, he had a large acreage on the coast north of Fort Bragg where he and his wife Eva, spent most of their time in later years. He died November 28, 1964 at the age of 90 at his Fort Bragg home.
C. F. Hager
On August 28, 1925 Fred Hemenway announced that he had leased the Express for one year to F. W. Tilney and C. F. Hager, whom he described as experienced newspapermen. In making the announcement Hemenway wrote: As for ourselves we have had 18 years of nonstop activities in the newspaper game and are looking for a wee bit shorter hours. We are going to join the honest farmers and starve."
Tilner's name was dropped from the masthead in December 1925 and for the remainder of the year's lease the masthead read: "C. F. Hager, Editor and Publisher."
Hager wrote at the end of the year that he was returning to his ranch in Vacaville.
George Dawley
On Nov. 29, 1929, Hemenway announced that he had leased the Express to George A. Dawley, editor of the Colusa Daily Sun. Dawley and his wife, John, ran the Express until Dec. 1, 1930 when their lease expired. It was the beginning of the depression and Dawley, a good newspaperman, managed to survive. He went from Winters back to the Arbuckle American and then on to Biggs, where he was the publisher of Biggs News until his death.
While at Biggs, he also served as justice of the peace.
Walter Stark
Walter Stark had been a banker and when the Winters Bank was merged with Bank of America, he bought the Express and operated it for 11 months, discovering that running a paper was a difficult task for a person trained in other fields. He sold out in November, 1945 to Fred W. Smith, who had just sold his interest in the Woodland Record. Stark returned to banking, being employed in Dixon with the First National Bank of Dixon until his retirement.
Smith took over the paper when it was located at the southwest corner of First and Main, where Day's Pharmacy is now located, and bought the building at 310 Railroad Avenue from Jack Vasey, moving the newspaper plant during 1946.
The Express was operated by Mr. Smith until January, 1947, when he sold out to Mr. and Mrs. Newton Wallace, the preset publishers. After selling the paper, Smith turned to construction, buying the old buildings on Elliott Street which had been part of the "Japanese Town" and razing them, building several houses there and also on East Baker Street.
From Winters, Mr. and Mrs. Smith moved to Sacramento where he returned to printing, working for a number of years for Sacramento where he returned to printing, working for a number of years for the Sacramento Bee before retiring.
Newt & Ida Wallace
Mr. and Mrs. Newton Wallace bought the paper in December 1946 and took over on January 1, 1947. Both graduates of Iowa State College (now Iowa State University) at Ames, Newt worked as news editor of the Denison, Iowa Review; later for the Long Beach Independent, a morning daily, and the Upland News, a twice-a-week paper, before buying the Express.
Charles Wallace
Newt and Ida Wallace remained as publishers until April 15, 1983 when their son, Charles R. Wallace, was named as publisher, with Newt retaining his position as president of Winters Express Inc. and Ida as news editor and vice president of the corporation.
Charles was practically raised in the newspaper office and received a bachelor or science degree in Printing Engineering from California Polytechnic Sate University at San Luis Obispo in 1974. Following graduation he took a job with Fashion Arts Press in Los Angeles where he worked for over two years. In April, 1977 he returned to Winters and joined the family business, first as production supervisor and then added the duties of advertising manager.
In 1995 the Wallaces merged the paper with the McNaughtons, who own The Davis Enterprise, Fairfield Daily Republic and the Mountain Democrat in Placerville.
Newt continues to come in to work every day and Charley is still the publisher. Debra (Ramos) LoGuercio started working at the Express in 1992 as the editor, and Dawn VanDyke came on board as in 1996 as the city editor. Under their guidance the Express was named best small weekly in California in 2000.
Longtime Employees in Express history
Henry C. MacArthur, retired owner of the Capitol News Service, got his start in the newspaper business as a printer's devil for the Winters Express and later went on to be a reporter for the Woodland Democrat, the Sacramento Union, and was editor of a Stockton paper prior to the founding of Capitol News Service, which covered events at the State Capitol for newspapers throughout California.
His mother, the late Maud Culton McArthur, was a writer for the Express for about 40 years. Like Fred Hemenway, she was in the first graduating class of Winters High School, and graduated from Mills College. She stayed on there as a teacher, but returned to Winters to marry N. A. McArthur, a local businessman. Maud was a fluent writer and an avid historian, and much of what is recorded about Winters history was written by Mrs. McArthur.
Because of her husband's failing health, she retired from the Express in 1950 and her place was taken by Mrs. N. D. (Dorothy) Thomas, who covered the news for 23 years prior to her retirement in 1972.
Mrs. Thomas had served as president of the Winters Fortnightly Club and had served as city clerk for two terms. She discovered that retirement was not what she wanted, so took a job as a local corespondent for the Daily Democrat and also accepted a position on the Winters city council.
Another long-time employee was Mrs. Edwin (Rachel) Udell who had nearly a half century in the print shop before she retired. Her brother, the l#ate Emil A. Sager had started out as a printer's deliver the Express, and while still in high school, Rachel began working for the paper.
Emil had moved on to Esparto where he was owner of the Esparto Exponent when he enlisted in the Navy during World War II. He later spent most of his life in he printing business in the Bay Area.
Rachel learned how to operate the new-fangled type-setting machine called the Linotype, which replaced the hand-setting of type at the Express, and operated the machine until the Linotype was replaced by cold type composition. She worked at the Express and also for the Dixon Tribune. A lifelong resident of Winters, she had a vast knowledge of people and events and aided greatly in correcting inaccuracies in names and relationships. She was also an excellent speller (like most old-time Linotype operators) and an authority on the division of words.
Another long-time employee was J. O. Jewett, who began working part-time for the Express in 1953 and was a columnist and commercial printer and associate publisher of the Express. Even when he operated his own commercial printing business in Fairfield, he handled practically all of that aspect of the business for the Express.

After a few release candidates over the past week or so, WordPress 2.5 is now officially released.
So what's new in this release? I had a play with the release candidate 1 when it came out and the first major difference I saw was the admin area, fresh new design and the menu all over the place. Once I upgraded my Admin Dropdown Menus which thankfully brought the menu items back into line, it wasn't as bad. Am I happier with it? Not from the RC1 (I've not installed the new version yet, guess I should before moaning!). The admin look is okay although I prefer the classic design over the fresh one (you can switch between the two), however on the posting page everything's been moved around and not for the better. The comments page looks better though, displaying gravatars.
They've incorporated a few plugins into 2.5, such as Gravatars, and looking on their latest post there's also a gallery in there (I didn't see that in RC1!). That'll be interesting to see how good and flexible it is, very handy for CMS's and blogs alike. It seems like most of the plugins should continue to work fine as there hasn't been any major, if any, database changes. I know my plugins appear to work okay, although I'll double check them on the final release.
I'll be having more of a play locally on the new release, just to make sure everything looks okay, works fine, give it a day or two incase any major problem crops up in the WordPress camp etc. Then it'll be time to deploy it to every blog and CMS based site running it!
Delete wp-admin, upload the new wp-admin.
Put up a blank index.html file into the root (to prevent any random visitor walking in on your upgrade).
I think the main let down is the new admin, but I'm going to start hunting out a decent admin theme, hopefully getting the look back to how it was in part. Especially as the new look will freak some clients out!
Lee, I updated mine (yeah, it gets more updates than posts) and none of the 3 million plugins I have caused a problem. 2.5 is quite a smooth update in comparison to 2.3.
Ooo I missed a step Sam. You also need to compare the wp-config.php file on the server with the wp-config-sample.php file in the new release, in case they've added anything else to it.
In this release they've added a secret key.
Reminds me to go and upgrade. Did anyone have any problems with it yet?
I've upgraded one client's site to WP2.5 today. Besides the admin areas for plugins looking out of place as they don't fit in with the new design, everything else has seemed fine. I've been making notes to I'll be doing a pros and cons post soon.

Well the first weekend in December is drawing to a close, but we had a great weekend and filled it fill with Christmasy things, even is those things did not include playing in the snow. William is a little disgusted that we don't have any snow yet, he said we should pray about it because how is one supposed to feel Christmasy without snow? Good question. But we tried our hardest when we made our Christmas cookies Saturday morning. And it was classic, before we had even begun, someone spilt the sprinkles….
She was much more interested in the dough. I think she thought it was just a yummy sort of play-dough, I let her have some to play with and she made lots of shapes like 'a pile of leaves' and then processed to just sit eat her 'play-dough'. She definitely enjoyed herself and would probably give Christmas cookie making a thumbs up if I asked her how she liked it.
And then today we got our tree up!
And now as this weekend is coming to a close my boys are watching Punkin Chunkin with their dad… a great way to end a great weekend!
I remember you telling me about the egg yolk paint before. Erin and I are going to try it today!
All of the children are quite the artists. You are a great mom Lisa for investing so much in your kids – hope they enjoyed it as well.
Must make cookies! 🙂 Thanks for the painting idea.

Jennifer Francis and Spirit are proof that the burden of mental illness can be made lighter with the help of a specially trained service dog.
Henderson: Spirit gives her new lease on life
Jennifer Francis has been diagnosed with a bipolar spectrum disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder and panic disorder. They are chronic, disabling conditions she will have to cope with for the rest of her life. But if you think they are all that define her, think again.
By Helen HendersonSpecial to the Star
Sat., Feb. 13, 2010timer3 min. read
This year, Francis, 23, will graduate from the University of Western Ontario with a degree in civil and environmental engineering. An accomplished public speaker, she also will travel to California to address the state's bipolar foundation, which retains her as a member of its consumer advisory board.
And she will do it all in the company of the steadfast four-legged companion she credits with saving her life: her mental health assistance dog, Spirit.
Spirit is not just any working dog. Trained by Hamilton-based Encouraging Paws Service Dogs (encouragingpaws.com), she knows more than 50 commands that help keep Francis safe.
She also has the gift of being able to predict when Francis is about to have a disabling panic attack.
The dog is attached by a special leash that is secured around Francis's waist. When Spirit senses a panic attack is imminent, she plants herself firmly on the ground, preventing Francis from darting out into traffic or any other life-threatening danger.
"She grounds me," says Francis. She means both physically and emotionally.
Spirit is the first mental health assistance dog that Michelle Wright, founder of Encouraging Paws, has schooled. But she will by no means be the last. "This has opened doors," says Wright, a certified trainer of special skills dogs.
Dealing with mental illness includes some unique challenges.
Most service dogs are bred specially for the jobs they will have. The groups that breed and school them require humans to go and live at the training facility while the two are bonding.
"But people with mental health issues don't always function well in unfamiliar surroundings," Francis points out. "You can't just uproot them from their homes."
So, if an animal meets the requirements of Encouraging Paws, Wright will train personal pets in the clients' homes to become accredited service dogs. Needless to say, the human part of the equation has to meet certain requirements, too – including the ability to learn commands and be able to assure that the dog will be cared for.
Service dogs can be taught to do an amazing number of things for people with disabilities, including barking for help, fetching particular items, opening and closing doors, helping to lift legs into bed and alerting people to seizures. But Spirit is definitely breaking new ground.
"They had never heard of mental health assistance dog in California," says Francis. "That's part of the reason they invited me to speak there."
Coping with mental health issues can be very isolating. But Francis says Spirit helps her cross many barriers, enabling her to be herself and, in the process, advocate for more public awareness.
"When you have a service dog with you in public places, people start talking to you, asking questions," she says.
"You have to learn to deal with those questions. People don't need to know your exact diagnosis but you can help them understand."
Dogs can't cure mental illness. Francis knows she will have to deal with her condition for the rest of her life.
She credits her family and empathetic authorities at the university for helping her come as far as she has.
It has taken her six years to get her degree but she has done it. And she hopes to continue telling her story publicly as part of her commitment to taking mental illness out of the shadows and reducing the stigma.
A year ago Sunday, on Valentine's Day, Francis was in hospital, struggling yet again to get back her mental equilibrium. With her family, she got a day pass and they took Spirit to a Build-A-Bear store, where they built a dog as a present for Spirit.
With the help of her four-legged companion, Francis says, "I'm turning what many believe to be a curse into the best thing that ever happened to me."

On October 4, 2017, it was announced that Hulu had given the production a pilot presentation order. The series was created by Ramy Youssef, Ari Katcher and Ryan Welch, all of whom are expected to write for the series. Executive producers are set to include Katcher, Welch, and Jerrod Carmichael. Production companies involved with the series include A24.
On April 18, 2018, it was announced that Hulu had given the production a series order for a first season. On February 11, 2019, it was announced that the series would premiere on April 19, 2019.
Alongside the series order announcement, it was confirmed that Ramy Youssef would star in the series. On October 19, 2018, it was announced that May Calamawy had been cast in a series regular role.
The series is scheduled to hold its world premiere during the 2019 South by Southwest film festival in Austin, Texas, as a part of the festival's "Episodic Premieres" series of screenings.

A Secret Opioid Memo That Could Have Slowed an Epidemic
A confidential government document containing evidence so critical it had the potential to change the course of an American tragedy was kept in the dark for more than a decade.
'The Weekly' shines a light on that 2006 Justice Department memo and its consequences for today's wave of lawsuits against opioid makers and members of the Sackler family, which owns Purdue Pharma. We go with Barry Meier, the New York Times reporter who for two decades has chronicled how opioid abuse has ravaged America, as he travels back to where the crisis began.

Deposition: Sackler embraced plan to conceal OxyContin's strength
In May 1997, the year after Purdue Pharma launched OxyContin, its head of sales and marketing sought input on a key decision from Dr. Richard Sackler, a member of the billionaire family that founded and controls the company.

Here are the findings of our analysis. Michael Friedman told Sackler that he didn't want to correct the false impression among doctors that OxyContin was weaker than morphine, because the myth was boosting prescriptions ' and sales.

The zoo wasn't as large as our hometown zoo in Portland, but there turned out to be some advantage to that. First of all, being there on a weekday we virtually had the place to ourselves. Secondly, we got to participate in two animal encounters, and for only $3 each (Portland has similar encounters, but they are very spendy).
Second, we fed a giraffe. This was very cool. We got a few pieces of broken up lettuce and lifted it up to the giraffe (which was positioned 5 feet below where we stood to make it easy to reach it's mouth). It's tongue was similar to a cow tongue (long and pointy and twists all over to grab its food).
The carousel was also a big hit. Since our 5 year old was exactly 42″ tall she was allowed to ride without an adult for the first time!
After to Zoo, we checked out the recently built JUMP center nearby. This was an amazing piece of architecture– a community space built from the fortune and last wishes of J.R. Simplot, an Idaho entrepreneur who made a lot of his riches in potato farming. Although the 5-story slide wasn't open during our visit, we were able to climb on the really really tall jungle-gym.
If we had only had time to do one thing while we were in Boise, this is what I would have chosen. This park was amazing (and the sunny 70-degree weather didn't hurt). The green field looked luminescent with the backdrop of the dry dusty Camel's Back hills. The hill was super steep and I didn't think the girls would make it up on their own, but with the reward of two dimes enticing them they both scrambled their way all the way up and back down!
The park had a great playground. The best part of the playground: a bodybuilding.com sponsored outdoor gym. Both the kids and adults enjoyed this!
While Sarah stayed with the girls on the playground, I had 45 minutes to myself to mountain bike through the single-track trails that start behind the park. I went as far out on the trail as I could get in 25 minutes– and although it wasn't a lot of time, it was uphill the whole way and my heart was beating plenty fast by the time I turned around for the downhill ride back.
After the park we biked over to the Hyde Park neighborhood– a cute little area a few blocks long dotted with shops & restaurants– and we enjoyed our dinner at the SunRay Cafe on a lovely outdoor patio.
Our 3rd day in Boise was a rainy day, so we spent the morning swimming in the indoor heated pool at the KOA. The pool was bath water warm– Sarah normally dreads having to stay in cold pools with the girls, but this pool she enjoyed. Afterwards we went to the local science museum, the Discovery Center of Idaho. Since we're members of our science museum in Portland (OMSI), we were able to get in for free– something that I expect to come in handy in many cities on this trip.
The girls' favorite exhibits– our 3 year old loved the bicycling robot, and our 5 year old liked watching mom and dad lie on a bed of nails (which was surprisingly not too uncomfortable) as well as making a 'rock' by compressing clay using a hydrolic press.
Yay to your oldest being 42" tall to ride the carousel by herself! Was she excited or maybe a bit cautious to ride by herself?

San Francisco, March 14, 2014 – TRUSTe, the leading global data privacy management company and the first approved Accountability Agent for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Cross Border Privacy Rules (CBPR) System, announced today that two additional companies have achieved APEC Certification through TRUSTe. This follows the announcement last Thursday by the FTC, together with agency officials from the European Union and APEC economies, with the ultimate goal of helping businesses transfer data around the world in a safe way in compliance with global privacy frameworks.
The EU-APEC Referential announced last week, maps together the requirements for APEC Cross Border Privacy Rules (CBPRs) and EU Binding Corporate Rules (BCRs). The document, jointly designed by APEC officials and the EU's Article 29 Data Protection Working Party, is designed to be a practical reference tool for companies that seek "double certification" under these APEC and EU systems, and shows the substantial overlap between the two.
"The safe handling of customers' personal information is crucial for the success of businesses as they enter new markets with different privacy frameworks. Now more than ever the challenge of dealing with global data privacy landscape couldn't be more apparent.
"At TRUSTe we have been working closely on the development of the CBPR framework since 2007 including participating in the US delegation to APEC and have been the Accountability Agent in the US since last June. We've also partnered with Promontory to help clients seeking a BCR solution for data compliance in the EU.
"Through this work, we understand the practical challenges that these differing privacy frameworks create for companies looking to act responsibly in their use of customer data. We welcome the announcement made by EU agencies and APEC economies which will make it easier for companies to demonstrate global compliance under international standards and is an exciting step towards further interoperability of privacy frameworks worldwide."
In order to help companies better understand the new EU-APEC Referential, and how they can achieve global privacy compliance via the APEC and BCR Frameworks, TRUSTe is hosting a webinar on March 25 with Josh Harris, Policy Director at the Future of Privacy Forum, Simon McDougall from Promontory and Saira Nayak, Policy Director at TRUSTe.

Afghanistan: January 21, 2002
Interim leader Hamid Karzai wants to form a national army of 50-100,000 troops. This would give him some leverage against the warlords who currently control most of the country. Karzai isn't a warlord, or at least not one of the major ones. Karzai is a Pushtun, so he can easily recruit Pushtuns for an army. Karzai has developed good relations with the other ethnic groups, and if he has money, he should have no trouble recruiting them for the new army. A well paid, well equipped army allows the central government to bargain more fairly with the warlords. Money is what the warlords want, but how much it will take to make them happy depends on how large and effective the national army is. Ultimately, many would like to see elections for provincial and national leaders, but many warlords might resist this with force.
Although interim leader Hamid Karzai is a Pushtun, he doesn't have a lot of power with the Pushtun warlords in the south. To make matters worse, Islamic fundamentalists in Iran are supporting (with guns and money) like minded groups in Afghanistan.
In the north, warlord troops belonging to Uzbek warlord Abdul Rashid Dostam and Tajik Burhanuddin Rabbani (the previous leader of the Northern Alliance) fought for control of territory along the Tajik border. Drug (and other) smuggling is a major business along this border, and whichever warlord controls it gets to "tax" the smugglers. The current fighting has left at least eleven dead. Similar battles have been going on near the Iranian and Pakistani borders for several weeks.
With the help of Russian engineers and construction equipment, the 2700 meter long Salang tunnel has been reopened to truck traffic. The tunnel cuts through the Kindu Kush mountains, providing the shortest route between north and south Afghanistan. Russia is also providing mine clearing and medical assistance.
U.S. special forces, arriving be helicopter, raided a house in the eastern province of Khost and arrested for men, one a former Taliban official. A lot of Taliban officials, and followers, are still around, some of them openly trying to revive the Taliban movement under a different name.
The lack of discipline among warlord forces has led to misunderstandings. For example, one warlord militia group, told they would get a truck load of food, simply seized the first truck of food that came their way. This has happened several times and the warlord's men's reaction generally is, "what's the problem?"


Safety Advice for Truck Drivers | Platinum Drivers Inc.
What's some safety advice for truck drivers from Platinum Drivers?
For starters, look ahead the majority of the time and check your mirrors frequently. You should always be aware of what's going on around you, in the front, on the sides and behind you. You don't want to drive when you're tired. You need to be alert when you're behind the wheel of a big rig.
Try to anticipate trouble and then steer clear of it as best you can. Truckers, over time, tend to get very good at noticing anything out of the ordinary. When strange things are happening on the road, such as cars driving the wrong direction, a trucker needs to react in such a way that minimizes harm for all involved. That said, it's good to look for an "escape route" from trouble.
Have you heard of the term "safety circle?" Think of the truck and then draw an invisible circle around it– this is a cushion of room that becomes your safety circle. Whenever possible, leave this room "open" and "clear" of other vehicles. Pay special attention to any blind spots. Don't tailgate. When truckers create safety circles around their trucks, it benefits everybody on the road.
Another good safety tip for truckers is to frequently scan all the gauges. That way you'll know if there are any potential mechanical troubles brewing. Key things to check include your fuel level and if/how your electrical systems are charging.
Truckers need to be aware of upcoming low bridges– better to avoid the really low ones or risk peeling the roof off of the truck! Furthermore, be on the lookout for low hanging wires. Avoid them, obviously. Finally, weather plays a significant role in the trucking industry. Some days, the weather is really bad and it warrants pulling over, off the road, and waiting the storm out. You'll want to pay attention to the outdoor air temperature, especially when it's in the range of rain versus sleet versus snow. On those days when the weather hovers around freezing, be extra cautious on the road, giving yourself extra time to get to the destination.


Water heater maintenance is incredibly important, even though most homeowners think about water heaters as an install-and-forget-about-it kind of appliance. When the hot water runs out, people realize how vital it is to care for water heaters correctly.
Water heaters are enclosed tanks so many people do not realize the wear and tear they face since they cannot directly see the damage. They assume that as long as the tank is putting out hot water, it is in perfect working condition when this is ,not true. A little easy care could go a long way in preserving the life and function of a home's water heater?
A water heater is constantly pumping water in and out of its tank. During this process, sediment, minerals and dirt are filtered through and end up settling on the bottom of the tank. No matter what kind of water quality a home has, all water has some minerals that can settle.
When the minerals and sediment add up in the tank, it cannot work efficiently, and it faces damage like rust and corrosion. Once rust and corrosion set in, the water quality entering the home will be poorer and the tank will fail to heat water well and may need to be replaced. Follow these three tips for maintenance to ensure the water heater stays in optimal working condition.
It is important to drain at least one-quarter of the tank every few months. Draining some water from the bottom of the tank gets rid of any settling sediment. This process is easy. Turn off the cold water supply valve, hook a water hose to the drain valve and run the water from the hose outside or into a bucket. Do this until the water runs out clear rather than cloudy or dirty. This simple process will allow the dirtiest part of the tank to clear out, so the water heater does not have to work as hard.
The temperature-pressure relief valve, also known as the TPR valve, is designed to release pressure automatically if a water heater exceeds safe levels of pressure. Testing this valve annually will ensure that it works when it is needed. After placing a bucket under the discharge pipe attached to the TPR valve, open the valve to make sure pressure releases and hot water flows into the bucket.
Anode rods are small parts of a water heater that are often forgotten about, but they play an important role. The purpose of an anode rod is to protect the water heater from rust damage. The rod receives damage through electrolysis instead of allowing rust to reach the inside of the tank.
Every few years, the rod should be unscrewed and removed. Once removed, ensure that less than 6 inches of steel wire is still exposed and that there is no calcium build up on the rod. If the anode rod does not meet these requirements, replace it for optimal performance.
These three maintenance tricks will elongate the life of your water heater. If they seem too complicated to perform or you would rather let a professional handle the maintenance of your water heater, we can help. Make sure water heater maintenance is a priority and learn more tips like these by calling for more information today.

Businesses growing despite these unprecedented times
Here are 14 brilliant Irish-based and Irish-led businesses that are growing despite the turbulence caused by the Covid-19 outbreak.
The damage done to businesses across the spectrum of sectors because of Covid-19 is catastrophic.
All eyes are on the rebound and recovery but the real litmus test is whether firms currently affected by the lockdown have the resilience and fortitude to get through this time and emerge on the other side.
In spite of what is happening, there are many businesses that are going against the grain and are in growth mode. In many cases, such as e-commerce, cybersecurity or remote working technologies, this is their time. Others are boldly proceeding with plans to make a difference in the world. Others are attracting funding based on their innovation and vision.
Here are 14 Irish, Irish-led or Irish-based businesses that are growing despite the uncertain times.
Arkphire
Pictured: Arkphire CEO Paschal Naylor with Trilogy Technologies' Edel Creely who has joined the board of Arkphire.
Arkphire is an Irish IT services business that is growing locally and globally in spite of the ongoing pandemic.
Late last year, Arkphire acquired Trilogy Technologies to create the largest and fastest growing Irish headquartered IT procurement and IT managed services business. Following this acquisition, the newly enlarged group became the largest and fastest growing Irish headquartered IT procurement and IT managed services business with combined revenues close to €150m and employing 220 people.
In recent days it became clear that Arkphire's growth story continues with the news that it has acquired Singapore-based IT solutions and services company Generic Technologies for an undisclosed sum. Generic Technologies is a specialist Apple Authorised Reseller and an Adobe Gold partner with annual turnover of 9 million Singapore dollars (€5.85m).
Buymie
Buymie has created a platform using artificial intelligence (AI) technology, that enables consumers to access multiple large grocery retailers and receive short notice delivery to their chosen destination in as little as an hour.
In recent days it emerged that the company has raised €2.2m from existing and new investors and has entered into a multi-year partnership agreement with Lidl Ireland, where it will provide a personalised online grocery service for the retailer.
Consumers are also able to use their Buymie application to shop from Tesco in Ireland. Currently, the Buymie service is available to more than 490,000 households across Dublin as well large towns in Kildare and Wicklow.
Carbery
Carbery Group CEO Jason Hawkins

Growth in its nutrition business and a diversification into cheese production has seen the company grow turnover 3pc to €434m for 2019.
Carbery Group CEO Jason Hawkins said that the cheese diversification investment of €78m has demanded a significant amount of energy and focus and while slightly delayed, expect the new mozzarella line will be operational in 2020.
"Like all processors, we are closely monitoring volatile dairy markets across the world," Hawkins commented.
DataSolutions
Michael O'Hara, managing director, DataSolutions
Now entering its 30th year in business Dublin-based IT services company DataSolutions has set its sights on further growth in both the Irish and UK markets by 2022.
In recent weeks the company reported €74m in turnover for its most recent financial year, signifying a 57pc increase.
Having entered the UK market in 2016, its operations there now account for 50pc of the overall business.
DataSolutions attributes its success to its dedication to delivering technical expertise and transformational technologies in the areas of mobility and IT security.
Digital Construction Technologies
Joseph Mady, CEO of DCT
Joseph Mady, a former electrician, used the last recession as a springboard to build a unique and growing consultancy called Digital Construction Technologies that is leading the future of construction through Building Information Modelling (BIM).
The company enables building contractors to work from virtual models of construction projects and reduce waste and labour costs.
With BIM skills in short supply, DCT helps mechanical and electrical contractors design and deliver complex projects not only in Ireland but also in Denmark, the Netherlands and other European regions
"BIM is central to every construction project," Mady told ThinkBusiness. "Any building project you work on today project managers will not build without seeing how it works in the virtual model because they want to de-risk projects as much as possible to reduce waste and labour costs

Ireland's largest parcel delivery company DPD recently revealed plans to hire 100 extra staff amid Covid-19 surge in demand with a spike in deliveries of electrical goods, pet food and orders for gym equipment.
DPD Ireland's chief executive Des Travers said its volumes have "gone through the roof" with deliveries of electrical goods up 800pc, pet food up 300pc, and sports equipment up 225pc.
"Parcel volumes have exceeded those handled on Black Friday weekend 2019, said Travers, "with the company experiencing its busiest parcel volume throughput ever through its Athlone Central Sortation hub on Tuesday.
"In the last month we have increased the number of drivers in the network by 115 to 1,100. However, that's not enough, we need more."
ECI Energy
The ECI Lighting fleet in the 1960s.
ECI Energy, an energy services subsidiary of the ECI Lighting family business that has been keeping Ireland lit up for more than 60 years, is investing in a new strategy to deploy electric vehicle (EV) charging stations around Ireland.
ECI Lighting was established in 1960 by the Hanratty Family. Its ECI Energy subsidiary, which was spun out as a subsidiary in 2018, has allocated to deploy commercial and industrial clients a best-in-class network of charging stations.
Its new 'Electric Vehicle charging as a Service' agreement will cover a three-year period during which the client will be able to charge EV vehicles on their sites either for their own fleet or for their visitors. There is also an option to bill tenants or car park users with intelligent cloud-based software which is included in the offering. The fee will start from just €7 per day (plus VAT) per charger.
"The energy business has allowed ECI Lighting to diversify in the energy services space and partially transform from a 60-year-old product-only company to a dynamic services-based business," explained ECI Energy director Mark Connolly.

Shortly after raising €1.3m in funding, NovaUCD-based Output Sports has created a new wearable fitness sensor that can test and track athletic performance.
With gyms and training grounds remaining closed in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, athletes and coaches are increasingly turning to companies such as Output Sports to help them to optimise their remote training programmes.
The company has developed Output // Capture, an end-to-end solution that can test multiple components of athletic performance and track training programmes with a single wearable sensor.
"Currently due to the Covid-19 pandemic the athletic community the world over has had to adapt to the requirements of social-distancing, home-workouts and working from home," explained Dr Martin O'Reilly, CEO, Output Sports. "We are glad that our Output // Capture technology can help them in this time of unprecedented change."
Dun Laoghaire-based Profitero which counts Adidas and L'Oreal as clients – is eyeing the digital future of brands via digital commerce and has just raised $20m in funding.
The company – which was founded in 2010 by Vol Pigrukh, Dmitry Vyostski and Kanstantsin Chernysh – has brought in ad industry veterans to its management team to grow the business and define the future of brands.
"E-commerce was already on a major growth trajectory, but Covid-19 has sent it into hyperdrive by forcing consumers to adopt online ordering behaviours at a much faster rate," said Lew Moorman, general partner at Scaleworks, one of the investors in Profitero.
"These major shifts in digital purchase behaviour have created a large opportunity for Profitero as one of the few platforms capable of helping brands optimis their digital businesses across thousands of retailer sites and at global scale
Scurri
Wexford-based Scurri is redefining the future of retail. It has just been named among the top 50 retail tech start-ups operating globally, according to a new report published today by RWRC – home of Retail Week and World Retail Congress.
Scurri, whose technology connects and optimises the e-commerce ordering, shipping, and delivery process, was the only Irish company to have been listed in the industry ranking.
The company, which has also opened offices in London, adds value at multiple stages along the e-commerce journey: from selecting the most effective delivery option for each package, creating accurate labels, tracking the packages, and running analytics to deliver insight to support process improvement.
Founded by Josephine O'Connor, Rory O'Connor and Eugene Crehan, the company has raised €7m in funding to date.

Stripe, the online payments company which was founded by two Irish brothers Patrick and John Collison, is now worth $36bn after raising $600m in a Series G round.
Stripe was founded in San Francisco 2009 when CEO Patrick Collison was just 22 and his brother John was 19. Prior that the brothers who hail from Nenagh but as teenagers living in Limerick established a start-up in 2007 called Shuppa that later became known as Auctomatic. They sold Auctomatic for $5m when they were just 19 and 17 respectively.
Stripe intends to invest the latest funding in stepping up product development, global expansion and strategic initiatives. In September ThinkBusiness reported how the company had surpassed its 2,000th employee milestone. The company is spearheading its global expansion from its European headquarters in Dublin.
Stripe, which has more than $2bn on its balance sheet and is speculated to be plotting an IPO, provides an on-ramp to the digital economy for businesses around the world. The rate of new businesses going live on Stripe has accelerated since the start of the year, it revealed.
"People who never dreamt of using the internet to see the doctor or buy groceries are now doing so out of necessity," said John Collison, president and co-founder of Stripe.
"And businesses that deferred moving online or had no reason to operate online have made the leap practically overnight. We believe now is not the time to pull back, but to invest even more heavily in Stripe's platform."

Team Frate Train hosting field day at Franklin park
By Mike Gleason/Daily News Staff
FRANKLIN - Local families are invited to a field day event Sunday as part of an effort to raise awareness for ALS.
Team Frate Train, the group known for its "Ice Bucket Challenge," is holding the event at the King Street Memorial Park, 730 King St. It will feature such activities as a three-legged race, a sack race and facepainting, starting at 11 a.m.
Gerald Noone, of the Pete Frates Fund, said the charity was approached by local residents about holding a field day.
"It's not typical for us, in that it's for a younger group - most of our events focus on adults," he said. "It's a unique idea - it's the end of summer, kids are going back to school, and we thought it would be a good way to get kids involved."
Greg Sullivan, an assistant baseball coach at Boston College and a friend of Pete Frates, said his older brother, Chris, is a Franklin resident.
"He thought it would be cool - a different dynamic and demographic to spread awareness," he said. "The Ice Bucket Challenge last August was awesome. My niece goes to the Kennedy (Elementary) School, though, and while a lot of friends thought it was hilarious (that) adults were dumping ice water on themselves, they may not have gotten the idea behind it."
Sullivan said, in addition to the typical field day activities, there will be a station where people can take the Ice Bucket Challenge.
"It's a fun way to help spread awareness and get people talking," he said.
Noone said it is possible the concept of a Team Frate Train field day could spread to other towns.
"Absolutely - we don't turn anyone down who wants to help raise awareness," he said, noting that another youth event - a wooden-bat Little League tournament - is set to take place elsewhere in the state.
As for Franklin, Sullivan said it would be great if the event could be an annual one.
"We'd love to keep doing it," he said. "The town of Franklin and the Recreation Department have been great about working with us."
Pete Frates is a former Boston College baseball player who was diagnosed with ALS in 2012.

Information published on 16 November 2017 in the UIC electronic newsletter "UIC eNews" Nr 571 - Sustainable Development.
UIC IEA Railway Handbook 2017 – Focus on Passenger Transport
The 2017 edition of the Railway Handbook on Energy Consumption and CO2 emissions is the sixth publication of this series.
As in previous editions, this handbook aims to provide the latest insights into the rail sector's developments of transport activity, energy consumption and CO2 emissions.
For Part I, this handbook combines IEA (International Energy Agency) statistics and rail data estimates from the IEA Mobility Model together with UIC statistics and the UIC Environmental Performance Database. Further data, particularly on activity of transport modes other than railway, come from national statistics offices and international organisations (e.g. OECD and Eurostat). These data are supplemented by sector – or region-specific databases such as the High-speed Lines in the World database.
Part I of this handbook presents railway statistics related to the energy and CO2 emission performance of the transport sector.
Globally, rail was responsible for 1.9% of transport final energy demand, and for 4.2% of CO2 emissions from the transport sector in 2015. In comparison, road transport accounts for a 75.3% share of final energy demand, and for 72.6% of CO2 emissions from transport. Rail accounts for a relatively larger share of transport activity demand. In 2015, rail accounted for 6.3% of global passenger transport activity (in passenger-km) and for 6.9% of global freight transport activity (in tonne-km). The difference in magnitude of the share of activity and CO2 emissions can be largely explained by the better energy efficiency (per passenger-km and tonne-km) of the rail sector compared to the road sector. A continued increase of the share of electricity used in the rail sector was observed between 2013 and 2015, as well as an increase of the share of renewables used for electricity generation, which contributes to further improving the CO2 intensity of rail.
Since 1975, a steady improvement of the railway energy intensity has been observed. This development continued for freight rail transport between 2013 and 2015, but in the passenger rail sector a slight worsening of energy intensity was observed in the same period. This is consistent with the unprecedented shift in China from conventional rail to high-speed rail.
Part II of this handbook features an in-depth analysis of passenger rail services, with a focus on urban and high-speed rail.
In 2015, passenger rail transport (including urban rail services) accounted for 9% of global passenger activity (passenger-km). The share of Asia in total passenger rail activity grew significantly over the past decades. Asia accounted for 50% of passenger rail activity in 1985, grew to 60% by 2000, and finally reached 75% in 2015.
In 2015, the passenger rail sector consumed nearly 700 PJ of final energy, which constitutes one-third of the rail sector. Electricity accounts for almost three quarters of passenger rail final energy demand, and this share is increasing. This is consistent with the growth of urban and high-speed rail services, both characterised by a high dependence on electric traction.
High-speed rail activity has grown rapidly especially in recent years, making it the fastest growing passenger rail service. On average, global high-speed rail activity grew by 14% per year between 2005 and 2015. A strong growth is especially observed between 2013 and 2015, when activity increased by nearly 70%. This increase is largely influenced by a surge in activity observed in China where high-speed rail activity grew by 170% between 2013 and 2015.
In the IEA 2°C Scenario [2DS] and Beyond 2°C Scenario [B2DS] (having a 50% chance of limiting global warming to 2°C and 1.75°C respectively) the rail sector plays a key role in reducing CO2 emissions from transport. High-speed rail in particular plays an important role, as large proportions of short haul aviation activity (trips up to 1000 km) are shifted to high-speed rail towards 2060.
The expansion of metro networks and high capacity/high frequency commuter rail networks has significantly increased urban rail activity in recent years. The growth of these systems can largely be attributed to growth observed in China. High-capacity/high frequency rail activity within Chinese cities has grown by 150% between 2005 and 2015.
Both metros and high capacity/high frequency commuter rail have a better specific energy consumption per passenger-kilometre compared to buses, passenger cars, and two-wheelers. High capacity urban rail requires, on average, less than a tenth of the energy needed per kilometre travelled compared with passenger cars. High capacity urban rail is also more than twice as energy-efficient per passenger-km compared with tramways and light rail systems. This is primarily due to the higher occupancy rates, or load factors, of high capacity urban rail.
To achieve CO2 emission reductions in line with 2DS and B2DS trajectories, significant modal shift in urban transport from private vehicles (passenger cars especially) to more efficient public transport modes are also needed. Consequently, the demand for urban rail services is projected to grow by a factor 6 in the 2DS and by a factor 8 in the B2DS between 2015 and 2060.
The UIC Sustainable Development Unit is grateful to the support of UIC members and their annual contributions to UIC Statistics and to the Environmental Strategy Reporting System (ESRS) of UIC. The direct data collection from railways covers over 90% of the global rail transport activity, and the incorporation of this information into the IEA Mobility Model has increased the consistency of the data, providing a more solid background for the analysis presented in this publication and into the Mobility Model of the IEA.
The production of the Railway Handbook 2017 has been a good opportunity to strengthen collaboration between the IEA and UIC. This relationship has served to enrich and improve the knowledge of activity, energy and emissions data associated with the railway sector.

← Rangers dominate in Pittsburgh; Stepan and Nash with two goals
Rangers extend winning streak to three over Ottawa; Hagelin wins it in overtime →
Rangers look to close out first half on a high note against Ottawa
Posted by robertbevilacqua95

After two straight wins, the Rangers (26-13-4) will aim to capture a win in their last game before the All-Star break against the Ottawa Senators (18-18-8). The Rangers will not play again for a full week, meaning they will get some time to rest after playing eight games in 14 days.
The Senators fired their head coach Paul MacLean earlier this season, and have struggled to find consistency throughout the season, hovering around the .500 mark for most of the year. Ottawa has also struggled lately, winning just two of their last seven games (2-4-1).
Bobby Ryan leads the team in points, with 31 (12-19-31) in 41 games this season, with the captain Erik Karlsson and his booming slap shot not far behind, sitting at 30 points (8-22-30). The rookie Mike Hoffman leads the team in goals with 15, and has 23 total points this season. Hoffman is also a +18, tying him with the Rangers Rick Nash for 10th best in the league.
Craig Anderson will start in net for Ottawa tonight, looking for his 13th win of the season. Anderson has been very good this season, posting a 2.33 GAA and a .927 save percentage, indicating his lack of support more than anything.
Chris Neil will make his return to the Senators lineup tonight, playing for the first time since December 11th due to a knee injury. The enforcer has seven points (4-3-7) in 28 games this season.
After a brief two game skid, the Rangers have won two straight games, both on the road, with the most recent win coming against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Sunday. That win gave the Rangers 15 victories in their last 18 games, outscoring opponents 58-31 in those games. The Blueshirts have won six of their last seven road games.

New York has played just two games on home ice in the month of January, but will play five of their next six games at Madison Square Garden. The Rangers are 13-7-3 at home this season, and have won eight of their last 10 games at the Garden.
On Sunday, Rick Nash led the Rangers to victory yet again, scoring two goals in the game, and tying him with Tyler Seguin for first in the NHL in goals scored. He also leads the league in games with a goal scored, at 22 games this season.
Rick Nash was sensational yet again, scoring his first goal :26 into the game, and adding another one in the second period. Nash is tied for first in the league with 28 goals. Photo courtesy of Getty Images.
Derek Stepan also continued his strong play, adding two goals, with one of them coming on the power play. Stepan has been one of New York's best players since his return, tallying a point in 20 of his 30 games this season (8-23-31). Chris Kreider and Martin St. Louis also contributed with two assists each.
Henrik Lundqvist stopped 32 shots against the Penguins, allowing just two goals in his 22nd victory of the season. Lundqvist has won 13 of his last 15 games, and has allowed two goals or less in 12 of his last 14 starts.
Tanner Glass was out of the Rangers lineup on Sunday due to an upper body injury, and he will not be available for tonight's game either. The Rangers are hoping he will be fully healthy after the week off.
A huge factor of the Rangers success during the 18 game span has been special teams, which has been rejuvenated since the beginning of the season. The Rangers scored on the power play in Pittsburgh, giving them a goal on the man advantage in seven of the last 12 games (11-31; 29.7%). The Rangers have also been good at killing off penalties, and are 47-54 over the last 19 games (87.0%).
The Rangers have been very strong on the power play as of late, and part of that has to do with Dan Boyle, who has seven of his nine points on the man advantage. Photo courtesy of Getty Images.
The Rangers and the Senators will face off for the first time this season tonight at 7 PM. The game will be broadcasted on MSG Network.
