Carriera
Da calciatore giocò nel Brentford e nel Fulham per cui giocò oltre 300 partite.

Nel 1957 divenne il presidente della Professional Footballers' Association e fu tra i favorevoli all'abolizione dello stipendio massimo dei calciatori della Football League (all'epoca 20 sterline settimanali), abolizione poi regolarmente avvenuta. Lasciò l'incarico nel 1961, per intraprendere la carriera di allenatore.

Nel 1961 venne ingaggiato come allenatore dal Coventry City. Nella stagione 1966-1967 Hill guidò gli Sky Blues alla prima promozione in First Division della loro storia ma poi lasciò l'incarico dedicandosi alla carriera televisiva. In totale Hill guidò il Coventry in 281 partite vincendone 125, perdendone 75 e pareggiandone 81.

Nel 1975 tornò a Coventry nelle vesti di direttore generale, e, per un breve periodo, di presidente, senza però raggiungere lo splendore del periodo di allenatore.

Nel 1987 divenne presidente del Fulham ed evitò la fusione dei Cottagers con il Queens Park Rangers.

Nel 1966 intraprese una carriera da commentatore sportivo, in particolare per la BBC, con cui lavorò per tre decenni, presentando il programma Match of the Day (una sorta di 90º minuto britannico) ininterrottamente fino al 1998, per 32 anni consecutivi. Nel 1999 lasciò la BBC per legarsi a Sky Sports.

Nel 2005, quando il Coventry City giocò la sua ultima partita al Highfield Road poi demolito, Hill ricevette una calda accoglienza.

Q: bitmap artifacts when generated in c++ I've written myself a little C++ program to write a bitmap file from scratch. It works partially and I can't seem to find out why it doesn't work in certain cases.
What works:

*

*Setting a constant color

*Setting a variable color using the loop index WHEN AT THE SAME TIME specifying an offset larger than 10.

What does not work:

*

*Setting a variable color without offset or an offset smaller or equal to 10

What's (probably) not the problem:

*

*image size is 1024 x 1024 -> no padding bytes required !

*The bitmap file is recognized by the windows "photo viewer". I also tried paint and gimp: the format is recognised and I get the same images.

For the whole code see below, here are the parts I deem important:
#pragma pack(push, 1) // no padding !
struct bmpHeader {
    uint16_t hdrField; // set to 'B'+'M'
    uint32_t fileSize;
    uint16_t res1;
    uint16_t res2;
    uint32_t imgDataOffset;
};

struct bmpCoreHeader {
    uint32_t hdrSize;
    uint16_t width;
    uint16_t height;
    uint16_t colorPlanes; // 1
    uint16_t bitsPerPixel; // 24
};

struct pixel {
    uint8_t blue;
    uint8_t green;
    uint8_t red;
};

And the loop used for filling:
for (uint32_t i = 0; i < cHdr.width; i++)
    {
        for (uint32_t j = 0; j < cHdr.height; j++)
        {
            imageData->at(i).at(j).blue = 0;//j % 256;
            imageData->at(i).at(j).red = i % 128 + 0;
            imageData->at(i).at(j).green = 0;
        }
        //std::cout << i << ": ";
        //std::cout << +imageData->at(i).at(0).blue << std::endl;
    }

I expect the above loop to produce an image that creates black-to-red fades. What it actually creates:

(cropped image to half height, full width)
You can find the following artifacts on the boundary between the colors:

HOWEVER, when I set an offset like the following:
imageData->at(i).at(j).red = i % 128 + 11;
I get:

Any offset below 11 produces the same faulty picture. I have no idea of what's going on here.
Here is the full code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstring>
#include <cstdint>
#include <array>

constexpr uint16_t width = 1024;
constexpr uint16_t height = 1024;

#pragma pack(push, 1)
struct bmpHeader {
    uint16_t hdrField;
    uint32_t fileSize;
    uint16_t res1;
    uint16_t res2;
    uint32_t imgDataOffset;
};

struct bmpCoreHeader {
    uint32_t hdrSize;
    uint16_t width;
    uint16_t height;
    uint16_t colorPlanes;
    uint16_t bitsPerPixel;
};

struct pixel {
    uint8_t blue;
    uint8_t green;
    uint8_t red;
    //uint8_t padding;
};

#pragma pack(pop)

int main()
{
    bmpHeader hdr;
    hdr.hdrField = 0x4d42;
    // size is set at the end
    hdr.fileSize = 0;
    hdr.res1 = 0;
    hdr.res2 = 0;
    hdr.imgDataOffset = sizeof(bmpHeader) + sizeof(bmpCoreHeader);

    bmpCoreHeader cHdr = { 0 };
    cHdr.hdrSize = sizeof(cHdr);
    cHdr.width = width;
    cHdr.height = height;
    cHdr.colorPlanes = 1;
    cHdr.bitsPerPixel = 24;

    std::array<std::array<pixel, width>, height>* imageData = new std::array<std::array<pixel, width>, height>;

    hdr.fileSize = sizeof(bmpHeader) + sizeof(bmpCoreHeader) + sizeof(*imageData);

    for (uint32_t i = 0; i < cHdr.width; i++)
    {
        for (uint32_t j = 0; j < cHdr.height; j++)
        {
            imageData->at(i).at(j).blue = 0;//j % 256;
            imageData->at(i).at(j).red = i % 128 + 9;
            imageData->at(i).at(j).green = 0;
        }
        //std::cout << i << ": ";
        //std::cout << +imageData->at(i).at(0).blue << std::endl;
    }

    char* bmpContent = new char[sizeof(bmpHeader) + sizeof(bmpCoreHeader) + sizeof(*imageData)];
    std::cout << "Image data size: " << sizeof(*imageData) << std::endl;

    memcpy(bmpContent, &hdr, sizeof(bmpHeader));
    memcpy(bmpContent + sizeof(bmpHeader), &cHdr, sizeof(bmpCoreHeader));
    memcpy(bmpContent + sizeof(bmpHeader) + sizeof(bmpCoreHeader), imageData, sizeof(*imageData));

    std::fstream bmpFile("image.bmp", std::fstream::out);
    if (!bmpFile.is_open())
    {
        std::cout << "Could not open / create BMP file" << std::endl;
        return 1;
    }
    bmpFile.write(bmpContent, hdr.fileSize);

    return 0;
}

Any input is greatly appreciated =)

A: The file needs to be opened as binary, otherwise any 0A is replaced with 0D0A which will mess up alignment
    std::ofstream bmpFile("image.bmp", std::ios_base::binary);

Prisoners will be growing and planting eco-sourced trees for a project given $126,750 by Waikato Regional Council's Natural Heritage Fund.
Project Tongariro will be given the money over three years for restoration planting along the Waiotaka River, which flows mainly across Department of Corrections land.
The Waiotaka River Restoration Project aims to restore ecologically appropriate vegetation – alluvial kahikatea, mataī, tōtara and ribbonwood forest, and small areas of wetland vegetation – within the Waiotaka River riparian corridor. Currently the river margins are infested with crack willow, blackberry and other weeds.
Project Tongariro plans to work with Rongomai Marae and Tongariro Prison, with the prison producing eco-sourced trees for the project and the labour to plant most of the trees.
The weed control will be done by the Department of Corrections and professional contractors, and Project Tongariro will also coordinate community planting days with Ngati Rongomai.
The restoration will help improve the water quality of the Waiotaka River and Lake Taupō by creating a wide indigenous vegetation buffer, and ensure access to the river for the public.
The project complements historic willow control works undertaken by the council 8-10 years ago.
The grant is one of three Natural Heritage Fund applications approved by the finance committee at its December meeting. Mahakirau Forest Estate Society Inc was given $154,990 over four years for predator control work and Waikato Raupatu River Trust/Nikau Whanau Trust was given $84,000 towards the purchase of 13 hectares of the Matahuru Wetland at Lake Waikare.
Finance committee chairperson Jane Hennebry said Project Tongariro is a large, well-supported community group with an excellent track record of managing significant natural areas in the Tongariro-Taupō region.
"They have strong conservation ethics, and they inspire New Zealanders and visitors to connect with the land," Cr Hennebry said.
The Natural Heritage Fund has been in place since 2005 and is derived from the natural heritage targeted rate of $5.80 per property. The total amount allocated per year to the fund varies but is usually around $730,000.


Annoying earworm of the day. - I see better from a distance.
Annoying earworm of the day.
I have "Nuclear War" by Sun Ra (or rather, Yo Lo Tengo's cover of it) stuck in my head.
And so on and so on ARGH!!!!!
I have family visiting this week, so I may not be around much. I'm spending two days sight-seeing and shopping in D.C., which will be fun. The plan is to go to the Air and Space Museum (the one in D.C.) and American History museum. I haven't been to either in a long time.

My Chemical Romance's Gerard Way Through the Years — Photos
Rabab Al-Sharif
Rabab Al-Sharif Published: April 9, 2020

On April 9, 1977, Gerard Way was born, and to celebrate, we've put together a gift for all of you: a collection of photos of the beloved My Chemical Romance frontman through the years.
In addition to fronting one of the most iconic rock bands of recent times, Way is known for his work in the world of comics as an artist, writer, founder of DC Comics' imprint Young Animal and most recently the Netflix adaptation of his Umbrella Academy series.
Way grew up in New Jersey and has credited his maternal grandmother, Elena Lee Rush, with teaching him and his brother, Mikey, to paint, draw and sing from a young age. Way continued with art and music in his early years (he once said he was kicked out of his first band because he couldn't play Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama" on guitar), but ultimately went on to study cartooning and illustration at New York's School of Visual Arts where he graduated with his degree in 1999.
It was the tragic events of Sept. 11, 2001, that led Way to pursue music seriously again. In 2001 Way was working designing action figures for a company called Fun House when he witnessed the attacks on the World Trade Center. It led him to write My Chem's very first song and the eventual formation of the band.
"So 9/11 happens, and I pick up the guitar again and I write 'Skylines And Turnstiles', and then I called Otter [Matt Pellissier, drummer] and then I called Ray [Toro, guitarist], and we got Mikey [Way, bassist] in - and we just started building this momentum," he said during a panel at Los Angeles Comic Con.
In the years that followed, Way became not only a notable public figure in pop culture, but a positive force in music while rejecting the cliche rockstar mentality and pushing the creativity of the genre in the process.
So today, on the anniversary of his entrance to the mortal realm, take a trip down memory lane with this gallery of Gerard Way Through the Years below.

I think Tim likes to have at least one bald guy on the bench at all times. Since Smith and Harriman left, we have been a bit hirsute. Now if he could just convince Molinari that bald is a much better look than grey.
Speaking from experience I would say it's better grey than gone!
Robin was on BTL recently (yesterday, perhaps?) and said the kid they're recruiting from Indiana says Lewis is a legend in Indiana. That should open up a lot of doors for us there. Between that and Mo in Chicago, those are some great connections to have.
It was yesterday...heard the same thing. I'll post in the media section.

This topic contains 1 reply, has 2 voices, and was last updated by Brat Steve 3 weeks, 2 days ago.
With the announcement of Pokemon Crystal on the Nintendo 3DS, I was wondering if anyone here pays for Pokemon Bank? $5 a year isn't bad, but does it really pay for itself, or is it worth it?


Faecal incontinence is a term used to describe leakage from the bowel due to poor bowel control. You may also find you have excessive wind or experience staining of your underwear. Poor bowel control can be caused or made worse by a number of things including certain health conditions or medicines taken for other problems.
See the Bristol Stool Chart to see what healthy stools look like.
Visit your doctor or other health professional if you have concerns about bowel (or bladder) control. Difficulty with bowel or bladder control can be prevented, treated, better managed or cured. You shouldn't be embarrassed to discuss your bowel problems as many other people experience problems too.
The first step in improving bowel control is to have a full continence assessment carried out by a health professional. This assessment will take into account your medical history and current health, including diet and fluid intake, exercise levels and mobility, all the medicines you are currently taking, and any other factors that could affect bowel function. An individual bowel program will be planned for you to help solve problems such as constipation, diarrhoea or faecal incontinence. If your constipation problem does not improve, your doctor may organise more tests or refer you to one or more specialists in this area of health.
weight loss that you can't explain.
Incontinence is not necessarily a stand alone health condition and can be linked to many other major health conditions. In many cases, incontinence can be prevented by adopting healthy diet and lifestyle habits.
We have a number of fact sheets available for download on bladder and bowel health. Visit out Resources page for a more advanced search or have a look at some of the popular fact sheets below.


So Friend let's take our "Little Time" To Make Our Earth Better.. Better and Better…..
Keep spirit like our past time… hope we will get better chance to fix the time…..

Thread: Was this absolutely necessary?
Apparently the story got edited today after midnight. There is no mention about what gun was used in the article now.
Could it be? Noooo... maybe? Professionalism in journalism? Oh, wait no... they deliberately put false information in... got people stirred up (look at the comments) then retracted it without mentioning what they retracted. That's not professionalism, that's trickery and cowardice.
100% agreed. I was a little confused by this thread because when I read the article I saw no mention of an AR-15 except in the link. Makes sense now.
Changing such a large part of the story without printing an official retraction, apologizing for the misinformation or even explaining why the article was changed is complete and utter cowardice.
Yeah but I was specifically referring to the short bit about how the "AR-15 was originally designed for the armed forces". How was that in any way relevant to the report?
Aside from being irrelevant, that particular statement is blatantly wrong.
How is that statement blatantly wrong? ArmaLite developed the AR-10 as a competitor in a contract contest for a new US military rifle. It lost to the M-14 in the 1957 trials. It redesigned the AR-10 into the AR-15 in another bid to sell a rifle to the military. The design was rejected by the US Army and ArmaLite licensed the rights to the design to Colt who successfully sold some AR-15s to the US Air Force in 1962. The AR-15 didn't enter the civilian market until 1963 when Colt started making semi-auto versions. The US Army came full circle and adopted the AR-15 as its new standard issue rifle in 1964 designating it the M-16.
The Colt AR-15 entered the civilian market before the M-16 was adopted by the US Army on a mass scale, however it WAS originally developed by ArmaLite in a bid to win a contract from the military.
With that said, still irrelevant to the article.
Yeah I didn't realize they would be changing the article. Normally they just write a new one when the full story comes to light.


B.B.B. is a Testicular Cancer Survivor's Happy Hour sponsored by the Brady Urological Institute and Ulman Cancer Fund. One of the biggest challenges for TC survivors is a feeling of alienation - as most boys and men going through this disease do not know any other survivors. B.B.B. is a chance for survivors and their families to mix and mingle, to share their stories, and ask questions of other survivors going through various stages of treatment and cure. B.B.B. are held quarterly.
The Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults is a local, Maryland organization that works at a grassroots level to support, educate, connect, and empower young adult cancer survivors. The Ulman Fund works closely with our Testicular Cancer Survivors and supports our advocacy, awareness and social events including "Grab Life by the Balls" Screening Events, Charity Sporting Events, and "Beers, Bro's and Balls" Survivorship Happy Hours.
The TCAF is a nonprofit organization compassionately dedicated to improving the lives of those affected by testicular cancer through awareness and early detection. Dr. Pierorazio is a member of the TCAF Board of Directors and the TCAF is a wonderful supporter of many Brady Testicular Cancer events including "Grab Life by the Balls" Screening Events, Charity Sporting Events, and "Beers, Bro's and Balls" Survivorship Happy Hours.
Thomas Cantley (aka. Mr Ballsy) is a friend and supporter of the Johns Hopkins Testicular Cancer Program. Mr. Ballsy is well known for his "ballsy" support of many testicular cancer advocacy initiatives and gained international recognition while he rolled a giant "testicle" across the United States. Dr. Pierorazio is a "Ballsy Expert" and the two work energetically and enthusiastically to improve the outcomes for testicular cancer patients.

Harriet Clisby (31 August 1830 – 30 April 1931) was an English physician, women's rights activist, and founder of the Women's Educational and Industrial Union in Boston.

Early life

Harriet Jemima Winifred Clisby was born in St. James's, London, in 1830, and moved with her parents and two siblings to Adelaide, South Australia, when she was eight years old. She married sailor Henry Edward Walker on 25 February 1848.

Clisby was a vegetarian from 1847, the same year in which she became a member of the Swedenborgian New Church. She also practiced gymnastics.

Career
While in her twenties she moved to Melbourne, where she worked as a magazine editor for the Southern Phonographic Harmonia and, with Caroline Dexter co-published The Interpreter, the first Australian magazine published by women. She also organized a community home for the rehabilitation of women prisoners in 1858.

Inspired by Elizabeth Blackwell's 1852 book on women's health, Clisby decided to study medicine. She traveled to England and studied nursing at Guy's Hospital, where she met with Elizabeth Garrett Anderson, a prominent woman physician and hospital founder who advised her to train in the United States. With a friend's financial support, Clisby trained at the New York Medical College and Hospital for Women, graduating in 1865.

In 1871, Clisby moved to Boston, where she practiced homeopathy and lectured on hygiene. Clisby wrote a series of travel writings about Australia for the Woman's Journal, a Boston-based woman suffrage newspaper edited by Lucy Stone and Henry B. Blackwell, in 1873. The "Sketches of Australia" reflected on the young Clisby's immigration to and early life in Australia.

In 1877, while still living in Boston, Clisby and several friends founded the Women's Educational and Industrial Union to address the problems of poor women, especially unemployed immigrants. In a large building on Boylston Street, women could take English language lessons, learn millinery, dressmaking, and needlework, and obtain free legal advice. Later the WEIU provided job placement services and training for domestic and retail work, and eventually established a women's credit union. The WEIU remained in operation well into the 20th century, providing many of the same services as a settlement house. Clisby served briefly as the organization's first president before resigning for health reasons, and was vice president from 1882 to 1889.

Later years

After retiring from medicine she moved to Geneva, where she founded L'Union des Femmes. She remained active for many years, giving lectures on medical and spiritual subjects into her nineties. She died in London in 1931 at the age of 100. In 1930, she was described as the oldest woman doctor in the world.

Clisby is remembered in connection with the WEIU on the Boston Women's Heritage Trail.

Clisby Close, in the Australian Capital Territory suburb of Cook, is named in her honour.

Eidesvik Offshore, a Norwegian supplier of offshore vessels, has secured contracts for three of its platform suppliers, bringing some positive news from the sector plagued with lay-ups this year.
The company has informed that the platform supply vessels Viking Lady and Viking Athene have been awarded a contract with Total E & P Norge AS for one well starting mid-December 2015.
Furthermore, Eidesvik revealed its Viking Prince vessel has secured a one well contract from late December with an undisclosed client. Eidesvik did not disclose financial details of the charters. The company did not reveal the financial details of the deals signed.
Eidesvik, which last month celebrated 50 years of existence, is continuing from where it left off in November when it announced a two-year contract extension with Statoil for the LNG-powered PSV Viking Energy.
Unlike Eidesvik, the company's rivals and compatriots, Island Offshore and Olympic Shipping in November stacked some of their vessels. Island Offshore laid up the Island Commander platform supply vessel, while Olympic docked two anchor handlers and one PSV.
There are currently around a hundred offshore support vessels laid up in ports across the North Sea sector, both UK and Norway, waiting for work.

The American Society of Clinical Oncology published updates to their 2005 guidelines for use of sentinel lymph node biopsy in early-stage breast cancer. The guidelines, based on the review of 9 randomized clinical trials and 13 cohort studies, reflect what ASCO believes are best practices in using the biopsy.
Lymph nodes are organs that help the body filter out waste, bacteria or damaged cells such as cancer cells. During a sentinel lymph node biopsy performed to guide breast cancer treatment, a surgeon removes only the lymph node or nodes in the armpit that the cancer is most likely to travel to first. This helps doctors stage the breast cancer, or find out how widespread it is, at diagnosis.
In 2005, there was a growing interest in using SLNB as an alternative to axillary lymph node dissection, ALND—surgery that removes most or all lymph nodes in the armpit near the affected breast. Like SLNB, this procedure helps determine the cancer's stage. It also is done to remove cancer that may have spread to the lymph nodes and to prevent a regional recurrence, or a new tumor from arising in the area.
While both procedures help guide treatment, ALND is associated with more side effects. These include an increased risk of lymphedema, or swelling from the build-up of lymph fluid in the arm, chest or breast near the area of node removal. For this reason, researchers wondered if removing only the sentinel node or nodes was effective in people showing no signs that the breast cancer traveled to the lymph nodes on SNLB. If so, it would offer the benefit of staging the disease with less risk of negative side effects compared with ALND.
When ASCO published their first guidelines, few studies of SLNB were available. Now that more studies are complete, the society called together an Update Committee to reassess the guidelines.
All studies assessed were completed between 2004 and January 2013. They involved participants diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer, were phase III clinical trials or meta-analyses and compared SLNB with ALND.
These recommendations were not changed because there was not enough data to reach new conclusions.
These guidelines are what ASCO believes are best practices in using SLNB or ALND for specific situations. However, they are only suggestions. Your surgeon will recommend one to you based on your individual situation, and it's OK to ask why either was chosen.
In general, studies suggest that fewer lymph nodes removed through SLNB lowers the risk of side effects, such as lymphedema, compared with more extensive node removal through ALND. However, studies of side effects are still ongoing, and there is no guarantee SLNB will protect against the development of lymphedema.
If you are concerned about the risk of side effects from either lymph node surgery, talk with your doctor. The benefits of SLNB and ALND often outweigh the risk of side effects.

'I Just Had to Go Back': Syrian Repatriates Speak of Return
Some 31,000 Syrians have returned to the war-torn country from abroad this year and many are struggling to survive in a country they call home.
Written by Hashem Osseiran Published on  July 24, 2017 Read time Approx. 5 minutes

BEIRUT – He never thought about seeking asylum in the U.S. or Europe. For Taym Abed al-Rahman, even the Turkish city of Kilis – the closest to the Syrian border – was too far from home.
Eyeing his hometown of Tel Rifat in Aleppo's northern countryside, the 23-year-old activist returned to Syria only three months ago, leaving behind a life as a refugee in a Turkish camp near the Syrian border.
He is one of 31,000 Syrians who have returned to the war-ravaged country from abroad this year, to seek out family members or check on property. Hundreds more crossed into rebel-held areas of Syria from Turkey on foot ahead of the Eid holiday last month. Ankara has given the refugees the right to return within 30 days, but many have chosen to remain in Syria despite the ongoing war.
Syria Deeply spoke to three Syrian repatriates living in rebel-held parts of Syria and found them desperate for money and resources, making as little as $50 a month. They would not advise their families to return, but they say they don't regret coming back as long as they are resisting the Syrian government.
From a Model Camp to an Aleppo Flashpoint
Abed al-Rahman fled Tel Rifat in August 2012, after the government launched a fierce airstrike and artillery campaign on rebel positions in the town. He settled in a refugee camp in Kilis, which has been hailed as one of the most organized and orderly settlements in the region.
He had access to around-the-clock electricity and water services. He boasted about never having to live in a tent. Instead, he lived inside a 23-by-10-foot (7-by-3m) trailer with three rooms along with 15 other people. He was given a debit card when he registered, and every month, he got a balance of roughly $50 for food and sundries. "Life was very good in comparison to other refugee camps," he said. "It had provided us with all basic amenities."
Weary of tough working conditions in Turkey, however, Rahman said he started longing for home, especially after a Turkish tailor he had worked with for three months refused to pay him a salary. "After that, I promised never to work in Turkey again and I decided to go back to Syria," he said. "At least there, I would be working for my own people."
He has been living in the northwestern town of Azaz for the past three months, providing aid and services to towns and villages in Aleppo province that have recently been liberated from the so-called Islamic State. Though he says he does not regret his return, he concedes that repatriation is not what it is made out to be.
He says that he is terrified by the string of bombings that have targeted his town in recent months. Just last week, a car bombing shook his neighborhood and killed at least four people. "I was so close to the explosion. It was God that saved me," he said.
He is concerned that Kurdish forces based in nearby areas will launch an attack on Turkish-backed rebels in his town, following a series of clashes that have broken out between the two groups in a nearby village earlier this week.
What's more, he says unemployment in the overpopulated town has skyrocketed following the influx of displaced Syrians who have fled the nearby cities of Manbij and Aleppo. He says that work is hard to come by and the cost of living in Azaz has become even more expensive than Turkey. He pays more than $15 a week for water and more than $50 per month for electricity. "There is no way my family can come back to Syria," he says. "I have no way of supporting them."
Returning to a Revolution
Abou al-Izz al-Dimashqi almost did not return to Syria. The 20-year-old media activist from Aleppo who had fled to Turkey with his family in January of this year, said that it seemed like everything in his life was trying to keep him from returning home.
His 8-month-old niece, whom he had helped raise after his brother was killed by a barrel bomb in Aleppo last December, had just started calling him "baba" (dad). His 60-year-old mother, gripped by grief over the loss of her eldest son, was in a chronic state of depression.
"How could I tell her I wanted to go back to Syria and back to my revolution?" he asked rhetorically. "How could I accept being the reason behind her sadness?"
But news from home had compelled him to leave Turkey: The Syrian government was pounding rebel positions in Hama's northern countryside and the Eastern Ghouta suburbs of Damascus. It was also accused of carrying out a chemical weapons attack on Idlib – the only province in Syria under full opposition control. "When I saw all of this, I knew I had to go back," he said.
Overtaken by a sense of profound duty, he crossed into Syria from Turkey on foot last month. He could not return to his hometown of Aleppo, which is now under government control, so he settled instead in Kafr Karmin – a rebel-held village in Aleppo's western countryside near Idlib's provincial border.
These days, he lives in a 4-meter-wide (13ft) tent with six other activists. He spends most of his time volunteering with local NGOs and organizations, which distribute aid to nearby refugee settlements. He does not have a salary but says he lives off of donations and aid he receives from the organizations he works with. On average, he makes around $50 a month.
He also avoids talking to his mother more than once a week. "I don't want her to get very attached to me," he says. "I know I'm going to die here someday so I want her to get used to the distance."
Though he says he is happy to be able to give back to his country, he describes a precarious life marked by grave threats. He says he has not left his tent in four days. Rebel infighting in nearby Idlib this week has made the situation untenable. He speaks of kidnappings, killings and arrests. He is scared to go out and buy food. "This security situation doesn't allow for my family to come back," he says. "What would I do if my father is kidnapped on the streets, or worse?"
Fleeing Safety
At first, it would seem like Nizar al-Omar had won the golden ticket. In July 2016, the 25-year-old activist from Aleppo had obtained a German residency permit and was in the process of securing a scholarship to pursue a master's degree in Arabic literature at the University of Berlin. Life in Germany, he said, was very good: The people were kind and helpful, his living conditions were stable and he was being given the chance to pursue his education. Then, the government's siege of Aleppo started.
His return to Syria, he says, was a matter of principle. He could not sit idly in the security of his home in Europe while the residents of Aleppo were being "massacred" by the Syrian government. As a result, he returned to the outskirts of Aleppo at the height of the government siege in October of last year. He fought with Syrian rebel groups outside the city until January, when he was bused to Idlib province along with other fighters.
These days, he is struggling to find work. He says the situation in Idlib is especially severe since the province has become the only refuge for more than 900,000 Syrians displaced from other parts of the country.
When asked whether he ever regretted coming, he answered with a resounding no. "I do not think that way. Maybe at some point, when the war is over, I may return to Germany, but for now I am needed here and this is where I'm going to stay," he said.

Owen Pallett (Final Fantasy) Talks Tori Amos' Unrepentant Geraldines
Being a teenage Tori Amos fan in the '90s was, of course, the greatest. A strong — the strongest ever! — run of albums with no fan consensus on a...
By Owen Pallett | May 13, 2014
Owen Pallett
Island is the latest album from Oscar-nominated composer and songwriter Owen Pallett. Almost entirely acoustic, Island begins with 13 darkened chords, and was recorded live at Abbey Road Studios with the London Contemporary Orchestra. The introduction is sound of waking up alone, and on the shore of a strange land. What follows is a shimmering and luscious orchestral album that draws across the full breadth of Pallett's discography, from Heartland's Technicolor to the glittering, fingerpicked guitar that marked Pallett's first records with their trio, Les Mouches.
the '90s
Being a teenage Tori Amos fan in the '90s was, of course, the greatest. A strong — the strongest ever! — run of albums with no fan consensus on a favourite, as Tori fandom equally praises each of the Great Four: 1992's Little Earthquakes, 1994's Under the Pink, 1996's Boys for Pele and 1998's From the Choirgirl Hotel. Plus there was a plethora of EPs and CD singles boasting b-sides so worth it that I'd have dreams of finding a copy of the UK pressing of the "Crucify" single in the used bin, so that I might finally hear the recorded version of "Here. In My Head," a song only heard in North America at high school talent shows thanks to its appearance The Bee Sides, one of her many sheet music collections. Added to this: Tori's frequent nearly-solo concerts where mothers and daughters would hold hands and sets would routinely feature surprise covers and deep cuts. Plus she attracted a hugely progressive (for the '90s) and understanding online community, replete with meet-ups and listening parties and support groups. Tori, like Trent Reznor, attracted all the queers and weirdos who were too young, too square, or too isolated for punk or hardcore.
1999's To Venus and Back came out shortly after I started college (the same day as Nine Inch Nails' The Fragile, actually) and marked the end of my obsession. Whether it was due to the withering pituitary gland in my 19-year-old head or the new thrill of having moved from country to city, or — forgive me — a drop in quality in the music is irrelevant. But there were some changes. Tori's piano playing, as a soloist, runs like a river, flapping in the wind like a Liberty scarf. From Venus onward, the near-permanent hovering presence of a backbeat-loving rhythm section only boxed her, crated her, squared her — especially when compared to the spiky piano-and-kit partnership heard in Tori's finest heiress, Fiona Apple. By the time 2002's Scarlet's Walk arrived, aptly hailed as a departure, I was ready to downgrade my status as a fan. Tori Amos had already saved my life; job done. I subsequently gave my CD singles collection to a girl I was seeing, a newly converted fan.
The admission of "downgrading one's fan status" sounds snooty and shitty, but there is happiness here. More like: I'm a satisfied fan. This woman produced four miracle records: she is in the canon. My twice-through listens of her subsequent albums have felt loving and familiar, letters from a godmother. By the time she put out 2011's Night of Hunters, which featured vocal adaptations of famous classical instrumentals, I felt few, if any, emotional tugs, taking instead immense professional pleasure in the high quality of the audio engineering, the dynamism of the orchestral arrangements, her vocal performance and the choice of microphone.
With all that in mind, I expected Unrepentant Geraldines to sound like further "postcards from a life of contentment." I was looking forward to receiving these postcards. I wasn't entirely wrong, as, on many of these tracks, the sonic landscapes are bucolic. The production recalls Mark Knopfler solo records: piano mixed low, the vocals mixed high, bass and drums all woof, no transients. Some of the details recall St. Vincent, stereo-panned Tori singing call-and-response with her mono'd lead vocals. Her voice is miraculous here. Better than ever? Yes. But aside from this-and-that, it is, production-wise, a straightforward affair.
That said, for the first time since American Doll Posse's "Dragon" I'm ready to put some (many!) of these songs in my hope chest. These are enormous songs, they wrestle my adult impassivity to the ground. And these are adult songs. While "Promise" has all the honesty and forthright admissions of a pure pop lyric, the song is Tori and her daughter Tash exchanging mother-daughter vows: "Promise not to say/that I'm getting too old," their voices joining together like ivy and brick; it is devastating.
With its increasingly swelling piano rising like a heated ocean and its reflective lyrics ("I'm working my way back to me again/Not every girl is a pearl"), "Oysters" is Tori doing what she does best: stepping on the sustain pedal and letting her fingers go. The beautiful "Selkie" is "Song to the Siren" rewritten with the mythical creature as captive instead of captor, harmonies expanding endlessly outward, droplets on the face of a pool. A windy instrumental bridge (the title track), a gloriously acrobatic vocal turn ("Invisible Boy") — there are too many little details to effectively isolate here.
But most of all, the first track "America" is an all-timer for Tori, in which the "Other" America is imagined as a stoic, law-student vision of Columbia. The chorus rises and falls like a fountain and has been with me since first listen. This album will need, and will get, many more listens for me to unpack it. In the meantime, I'm a trembling mess.

The University Pain Centers, Rush University Medical Center and Rush Oak Park Hospital have state-of-the-art facilities available for diagnostic procedures.
University Pain Centers (UPC) specializes in the treatment of pain conditions disorders such as degenerative disc disease, small disc herniations, neck and back pain, post-surgical pain, cancer pain, reflex sympathetic dystrophy, post-herpetic neuralgia, as well as other painful conditions.
While certain pain conditions can be improved with one or two treatment modalities, many require an individualized multi-modal regimen that includes medical procedures and medications, coupled with psychological support and physical therapy, to alleviate pain and its consequences. Through the use of the Center's expert multidisciplinary team approach, we are able to provide treatment that enables patients to become more productive and improve their quality of life. Our UPC physicians are experts in the treatment of these conditions and have extensive experience in the injection of medications at specific locations of the spine, joints, peripheral nerves, and soft tissues which are done to treat pain syndromes, or for diagnosis of the problem that might contribute to the pain you are experiencing. Moreover, the UPC physician and staff encourage patients to discuss the treatment options available for their conditions and to ask questions about those procedures.
UPC takes pride in utilizing and providing cutting edge technologies and therapies to its patients. In addition, for example, UPC physicians have been active in research involving implantable neurostimulation devices and intrathecal pumps. Controlled studies have shown that neurostimulation can be effective in treating pain in some patients where repeat spine surgery has not helped or is not indicated. Neurostimulation uses a small system that is surgically placed under the skin to send mild electrical impulses to the spinal cord or to a peripheral nerve. The electrical impulses are delivered through a lead (a special medical wire) that is also surgically placed. These electrical impulses appear to block the pain signal from reaching the brain.
Another implantable device option involves a small pump that is surgically placed under the skin of the abdomen or back to deliver medication directly into the intrathecal space and spinal fluid. This spinal drug pump, sometimes referred to as a spinal morphine pump, is a sophisticated system where a small reservoir is enclosed around a pump which sends medication through a small plastic tube or catheter. This therapy delivers medications directly to the pain receptor sites, through a catheter, using only a fraction of the dose that would be required with oral or IV medication.
What can a psychologist do for my physical pain?
Pain is a "whole person" experience. Most people experience pain physically, emotionally, socially and intellectually. Pain can inhibit a normal productive life: it can limit your ability to concentrate, participate in physical activities and enjoy social interactions. Psychological evaluation and treatment can help many individuals develop specific skills that relieve the suffering of pain and thus increase their quality of life.
What happens during a psychological evaluation?
During your psychological evaluation, we hope to gain an understanding of your situation so that we can provide you with some relief from the psychological consequences of your pain. A psychological evaluation is an efficient way of obtaining the necessary personal and historical information to assist you in getting effective medical care and pain relief.
What psychological evaluation is not?
Some patients are concerned that the psychological evaluation might imply that their pain is imagined rather than felt; this is not the case. In fact, pain that is delusional cannot be alleviated through psychological treatments. Physical pain is normally recognized by the brain and, thus, has many effects on your well-being. It is these effects that we hope to identify during the psychological evaluation.
What psychological techniques are used?
Psycho-physiological techniques Biofeedback/Relaxation Training: Many patients benefit from learning how to control their responses to chronic pain. Biofeedback and relaxation training teach you how to release the tension and anxiety that often make painful physical conditions more excruciating.
Behavioral Techniques Self-Monitoring: Most patients will be asked to keep a diary of their pain, observing how pain levels increase or decrease over time. By monitoring your pain, you can develop an appreciation of your ability to control and manage levels of pain using skills you have learned.
Paced Progressive Increases in Activity Levels: By encouraging the slow and steady introduction of or increase in activity, we can help patients start to feel an improvement in their quality of life. Pain can be very debilitating, and the Pain Management Center is committed to helping patients improve their social, occupational and recreational activity levels.
Cognitive Techniques Self-Hypnosis and Visual Imagery: These techniques help you control pain that interferes with your occupational and sleep patterns. Through self-hypnosis, many patients report reduced levels of pain and an increased ability to concentrate on meaningful pursuits.
Emotional Management: Over time, pain can be very distressing, leading to depression, anxiety and social turmoil. Psychological therapy can assist you in reducing the emotional distress associated with chronic pain. By learning these techniques, your pain can be transformed and your suffering reduced.
Home Treatment Aids Office visits also include many helpful self-aid materials that enable patients to maximize the effects of treatment in the shortest time possible. Professional materials instructing you in the self-management approach to chronic pain and professionally produced relaxation and self-hypnosis tapes are provided.
Are sessions with the psychologist confidential?
In almost all situations, you control who has access to the information disclosed during your interview sessions with your psychiatrist. There are some unusual exceptions to this rule, however, and you need to be aware of them. Information regarding child abuse, elder abuse or the need to protect you and others from physical harm or immediate danger must be reported to the appropriate persons by state law.


To celebrate the start of Spring, we stopped by I.S. 151 in the Bronx to meet with their environmental club.
Action sales rep Vincenzo spoke with the environmental club about the importance of recycling and how it effects the planet. He also explained in detail the steps recycling goes through from its collection at the curb to the final steps at our MRF.
The students had some great questions regarding career paths that environmental students can take to work in the field of recycling.
The I.S. 151 environmental club gives students a platform to discuss issues effecting the environment. They also work to improve the environment through activities such as planting trees and flowers around community. The student's also take trips to the Bronx Zoo and Botanical Gardens to further their knowledge of all things environmental.
Action worked with the Pencil organization years ago to start the I.S 151 environmental club, so it was a treat to see it still doing so well and how involved the students are. The club will also take a field trip to our MRF blocks away from the school to see the recycling process up close.
Thanks again to the students and staff for letting us stop by.

Tariff data are presented in comparative tables and in one-page profiles for each economy. Statistics on non-tariff measures by country and by product group complement the data on tariffs. A new table containing import and export profiles indicates the value of imports and exports for each country and customs territory and the average tariffs applied to these products.
The special topic of this year's World Tariff Profiles is "Aligning trade and tariff policies with sustainable development". The chapter provides statistics on tariffs applied to technological goods that may assist countries in fulfilling certain Sustainable Development Goals, such as SDG 3.9 ("By 2030, substantially reduce the number of deaths and illnesses from hazardous chemicals and air, water and soil pollution and contamination") and SDG 7.2 ("By 2030, increase substantially the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix").
The publication can be downloaded from the WTO website. Printed copies will be available in the coming weeks. French and Spanish editions will be available for download by the end of July.

A few months ago, a young mother brought her 5 month old daughter into our office because her daughter had ear infections in both ears for over a month and was on her fifth round of antibiotics. Did you read that? FIFTH round of antibiotics! The antibiotics weren't working and so the pediatrician referred the family to an ENT doctor for an ear tube surgery consultation. The family came to us as a last resort to see if we could help her daughter. We got her daughter started under chiropractic care, and guess what happened? Her left ear, which apparently had the worse infection, resolved within a week and the right ear infection resolved by the second week. Isn't that amazing?! They went back to the pediatrician for a follow-up and they confirmed that the infections were finally resolved. Their daughter is now 14 months old and has yet to get another ear infection. Thank God their family brought their young daughter to us in time. We encourage families not to utilize us as a last resort because we could've prevented all the unnecessary pain and stress to both the parents and the young child.
Do you have a child who constantly gets ear infections? If not, you probably know someone who has a child suffering through ear infections. What typically happens is the pediatrician will prescribe antibiotic after antibiotic, ultimately ending in ear tube surgery. The reason why the antibiotics don't work is because it is only treating the infection, and not treating why the infection is happening in the first place. In other words, it's only addressing the effect and not the cause. I'm sure you've heard what happens with constant antibiotic usage where bacteria becomes antibiotic resistant. And I hope we all know that surgery should be the absolute last option. There is a better way, and I'm here to tell you that ear infections can be resolved safely, naturally, and effectively.
I've suffered with chronic ear infections since I was a young child all the way up until my early 20's. I remember having an ear infection in my left ear about every 3 months or so, and my mom would always have to take me to the doctor's office. I would often be prescribed antibiotics, both the kind that you drip into your ear, and also the one you take by mouth. I admit that my ear would feel a lot better and the infection would go away, but why would the ear infection always come back after a few months? The doctor would tell my mom over and over that I should get tubes in my ears if I didn't want to suffer with constant ear infections. We knew that there had to be a better option than surgery, but we just didn't know what the other options were. So we decided to not get the surgery and just continue the antibiotic regimen every few months whenever the ear infection returned. My mom was also told that I would "grow out" of the ear infections eventually, but I was still getting them in my early 20's. While I was a student at the University of Hawaii, I decided to visit a chiropractor for my nagging neck pain and headaches. I got started with chiropractic care and of course my neck pain and headaches went away, but I noticed something else as well. I have never had another ear infection ever since I got under chiropractic care! How is that possible?! I was so intrigued with the power of the human body and it's capability to heal itself, and so I decided to become a chiropractor myself to give others that same hope and healing that I was given.
Ear infections are caused by a buildup of infectious bacteria and viruses in the ear. This happens when the eustachian tube (ear tube), which allows fluids to drain and white blood cells to circulate, becomes blocked. As long as there is proper drainage in the eustachian tube, bacteria and viruses do not have a good opportunity to build up. Younger children have a higher susceptibility to blockage of the eustachian tube because the tubes are horizontal at birth and become more vertical with growth, allowing gravity to assist drainage.
How can Keystone Chiropractic help with ear infections?
The cause and prevention of ear infections lies in the anatomy. A small muscle called the tensor veli palatini is responsible for opening the eustachian tube. It is controlled by a branch of the trigeminal nerve, which has tracts that extend all the way down to the brain stem and arches on the top bone of the neck called the atlas. The atlas can misalign after traumatic events like childbirth and slips and falls during development, which can put pressure on the body of this nerve and cause dysfunction of the tensor veli palatini. If this muscle isn't working properly due to a misalignment of the atlas, the eustachian tube won't open to allow for proper drainage, which in turn can lead to ear infections. Correcting misalignments in the atlas in a young child and even an adult will unwind this cycle by taking pressure off the nerve, restoring function to the tensor veli palatini, allowing the eustachian tube to open and drain efficiently, and resolving ear infections at it's source.
Drs. Joshua and Daniel at Keystone Chiropractic have helped many individuals suffering with ear infections in the Plano, Frisco, Allen, McKinney, Prosper, and surrounding North Dallas communities. They focus specifically on neuro-structural chiropractic and use advanced technology to pinpoint the exact areas that need to be corrected. Allow Keystone Chiropractic to assist you in gaining victory over you or your child's ear infections. Live Better Now!
