final hoodoo Lucky omen Stephen Coen may just be the man to end Mayo's All-Ireland curse
Stephen Coen of Mayo in action against Tipperary in the All-Ireland semi-final at Croke Park
Sean McGoldrick
A cottage industry of omens and curses has flourished around Mayo's heroic, but, so far, futile efforts to secure the biggest prize in Irish sport.
So, it's a wonder there isn't a clamour to nominate Hollymount's Stephen Coen as the team skipper. After all, he has impeccable pedigree when it comes to omens, having captained every team he has played on to an All-Ireland victory.
He was at the helm when Mayo minors beat Tyrone in 2013 to win the county's first minor title since 1985. Three years later he skippered the county U-21 team to an All-Ireland final win over Cork, claiming their first title in the grade for a decade.
In 2018 he again tasted All-Ireland success when he captained UCD to victory in the Sigerson Cup final, having also featured on their successful 2016 squad which included Dublin stars Jack McCaffrey, David Byrne, Mick Fitzsimons, and Paul Mannion.
Even though Coen made his senior championship debut for Mayo in the All-Ireland semi-final replay against Dublin in 2015, it has been a challenge to secure a regular first team slot ahead of established stars like Colm Boyle, Donie Vaughan, Tom Parsons and Keith Higgins.
This season, however, he has finally nailed down the number six shirt – where he played on the All-Ireland winning minor and U-21 side – and he could end up marking his old UCD buddy Con O'Callaghan next Saturday.
The latter was UCD's most decorated forward when they won the Sigerson in 2018. "He's a good fella with a great attitude," said Coen. "He just wanted to do well in football and constantly wanted to improve. He was very honest and had skill, speed, and power. I was friendly with him and there would have been a strong mutual respect between us.
"We had good fun when we played Sigerson together for three or four years. It finished on a positive note and we have stayed in contact the odd time since."
This All-Ireland series has been like no other, but Coen is not complaining.
Prior to the 2016 and 2017 All-Ireland finals he was working in a bank in the centre of Castlebar. A sizeable percentage of the customers who came to his counter were far more interested in talking football than doing business.
"Here at home, I just see the animals and the good thing about them is that they don't talk back to you and don't ask you about the game. So, you can control your own thoughts and save a lot of energy."

Pat Spillane: Opinion Mayo have reason to hope - but they must go for man-for-man with champs Dublin
Home is Hollymount, a rural area of South Mayo close to the county boundary with Galway and just off the N7 motorway made famous by the Saw Doctors.
Together with his father and brother they run a sheep and beef farm which specialises in breeding pedigree Texel rams. "We have about 150 ewes and 20 cows. None of us rely on it. It is a bit of a hobby.
Coen's future career will be in agriculture, however. He has completed two and a half years of a four-year PhD study into aspects of bovine nutrition and reproduction. Initially he was based in the Teagasc centre in Grange, County Meath where there are more than 1,000 livestock on site.
One of the reasons he opted to do a PhD is that it gives him the option of having a career in academia. "I have had a few different opportunities put to me already, but I need to finish my PhD first."
Growing up in Hollymount had a seminal influence on his football career. His father Liam and two of his uncles featured on club sides which won Mayo senior titles in 1990, 1991 and 1994.
There was a family tradition of meeting every Sunday in their grandmother's house.
"My father has eight siblings and there was a garden out the back of my Granny's house. With all the cousins around there were always nine or ten lads there to play. We used to knock lumps of each other, but I learned a lot about football there.
"I'm the youngest of four so by the time I was old enough to play my father and uncles were well retired from football. We'd go down to the local pitch for all the games and be the ball-boy or the 'maor uisce' if you got the chance. Like all young footballers I wanted to be around a football all of the time."
Current Mayo selector Ciaran McDonald was his boyhood hero. "For my generation he was a huge player."
After McDonald retired Andy Moran (inset) became his role model and his appreciation of the former Footballer of the Year who retired last year grew when he joined the senior squad.
"He was a massive guy for me and then when I got to know him, I got even more respect for him.
Brian Howard of Dublin shakes hands with Stephen Coen
"I would have seen him as this absolute legend and admired him so much because he always stood up in big games. But I wouldn't have known him.
"Then (the first night) I came into the (senior) dressing room he was the first man to walk up to me and shake my hand and put his arm around my shoulder. And he taught me everything that he knew.
"To experience that at my age was kind of mind-boggling. When I got older and he was able to see me working hard and you earn his respect which was a big thing. It is something I will always cherish. But what he did wasn't surprising because I knew the way he carried himself he was that kind of person."
Though most Mayo players would be forgiven for having nightmares about their encounters against the Dubs, Coen has some positive memories.
In the 2016 All-Ireland U-20 semi-final Mayo produced what might be described as a typical 'Mayo' performance.
They were 1-7 to 0-4 ahead at the break but Dublin had drawn level (1-8 each) early in the second half before going four points up. But Mayo rallied with Conor Loftus holding his nerve to convert what proved the winning free in the fourth minute of injury-time.
Seven of the players who featured in that contest are likely to see action on Sunday with Coen, Matthew Ruane, Loftus and Diarmuid O'Connor starting for Mayo with Con O'Callaghan, Paddy Small and Brian Howard likely to play for Dublin.
So, it is not written in the stars that in tight finishes Dublin always prevail against Mayo. And here's another omen – Coen celebrated his 25th on Friday. The party is on hold.

When the brothers Mohamed and Ali Reda formed their Folkdance Troop in the late fifties, they travelled across Egypt to capture the essence of the communities around the country. Their travels reached the most remote oases and nomadic tribes. They documented their costumes and music and studied their choreography. Their creations were outstanding. The government sent them in world tours to exhibit their productions, which depicted the immense cultural diversity that spans across Egypt.
This diversity is reflected in the costumes, music, dances, customs, traditions, cuisine and dialects of the various communities that spread across the land from north to south. From Siwa to Sinai, Port Said to Nubia. These cultures became woven into the rich tapestry that makes up the Egyptian unique identity. Until today, women in these communities wear their local costumes on their special occasions. They wear them with pride and grace. For it is not just a costume they carry around, but also a part of their identity and heritage.
Women of Egypt is shedding a light on some inspiring women from these communities, who are breaking social taboos, and whose achievements are empowering them and the women in their societies.
Born and raised in the conservative Bedouin town of Sheikh Zweid in North Sinai, Nassrallah was privileged to have a progressive father who believed in women's education. Going against the conservative traditions of their community, he supported and encouraged her in her educational quest, until she received her PhD from the University of Sinai. Nasrallah is the first woman from her community to chair the English Department at the University of Sinai.
Nassrallah pledged an annual prize of L.E. 10000 to female students, in the towns of Sheikh Zweid and Rafah, who have demonstrated outstanding college-level achievements in their high school exams.
As a local who received a fair amount of education and also as a member of the academic society in North Sinai, the prize, which is named after her, is to show her gratitude and to give back to the community. She also wants to encourage girls who live in these rural towns to attend college, and to raise awareness among the locals about the importance of sending their daughters to college.
El-Weshahy is a writer and researcher in the Amazigh affairs and the representative of Egypt's Amazigh community, one she belongs to. Her name is widely known as an advocate for their rights, and for that she became known as the mother of the Egyptian Amazigh.
A graduate of Helwan University, Faculty of tourism, English department and a native Nubian, Dalia co-founded the group Nubian Knights.
Nubian Knights is an initiative to promote and preserve the Nubian heritage, and introduce people to its arts, history, culture, traditions and language. To accomplish that, they organize folkloric shows, workshops, language courses and various events and seminars in universities across the country, most of which are for free.
The Nubian Knights launched an internet radio station broadcasting Nubian music, never played on the Egyptian radio and television. They also developed the mobile app Nubi, to teach the Nubian language, which was used for coded messages during the 1973 war, and is still in use today among the Nubian communities.
Dalia and the Nubian Knights aspire to open Nubian culture centers across Egypt and to launch a television station that broadcasts in Nubian. They believe that the visual media is the most effective way to introduce people to the Nubian heritage and teach them the Nubian language.
By preserving and promoting their heritage, The Nubian Knights are also hoping to promote tourism in Aswan and Nubia, to develop the economy and upgrade the lifestyles of the communities in these regions.
Noha graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts, Helwan University, majoring in Graphic Design. She obtained her PhD in 2016. Her dissertation was a comparison between the paintings of the children in the New Valley and the pioneers of graphic art.
Noha is the first woman from the New Valley oases to receive a PhD in fine arts. She paints with sand and natural colored rocks on barks of palm trees and on murals. Her paintings are inspired by the natural environment of the New Valley oases.
In 2005, she created Miss Dates, a children beauty pageant that has been held annually, since then, on the National Day of the New Valley. The young contestants wear the national costumes of the oasis decorated palm dates and palm leaves and other decorative motifs worn by women in the oasis.
After finishing high school in Assiut, Upper Egypt, in 1997, Nagwa Bakr fought a fierce battle with her father to pursue an archeology degree in Cairo. Her conservative southern Egyptian father was adamant not to allow her to leave and live away from home. But with the support and blessings of her mother and grandfather, she travelled to Cairo against her father's wishes.
Leaving home at the age of 16 created a rift between Nagwa and her father. Other than sponsoring her financially, he stopped talking to her. Since then, she received two masters' degrees, worked in the field of archelogy and traveled around the world to study museums.
Lately, Nagwa started documenting the history and stories of women from local communities. She wants to establish a Heritage Museum, to document the folk life and stories of women making local handicrafts in Egypt, similar to some of the ideas she saw at the Smithsonian during her visit to Washington DC.
Over the years, Nagwa and her father reconciled. Today they became close friends. Her education and travels became a source of his pride in the village.
Her mother is also proud of her and as supportive as ever. But like every Egyptian mother, she wishes to find a husband for Nagwa. On the other hand, her father encourages her to follow her dreams, travel and get her PhD.
Zahra received her BSc. in Botany from the University of Mansoura in 2008. Her passion to study herbal medicine and Bedouin healing, led her to move to St Catherine to learn them from the Bedouins. In St. Catherine, she also enjoys hiking in the mountain trails. Her hiking trips inspired her business project, Mountain Rose.
She founded her project to produce healthy, lightweight and non-perishable energy food for hikers. The fruits and nuts she uses for the trail mix and energy bars are grown organically and sun dried without using any preservatives. She also produces organic honey with fruits, nuts and quince marmalade.
Zahra aims through her project, to help sustain the cultivation of fruits in remote valleys and to revive the fruit drying industry – a source of income for the locals, which has been ignored for many years. Her project also supports the Bedouin women in the local communities, and provides them with jobs and a source of income. She aspires to expand her project and export her products worldwide, for the world to taste the delicious fruits of Sinai.

Well before 1929, Stalin had achieved dictatorial power over the Soviet empire, but now he decided that the largest peasant economy in the world would be transformed into socialist modernity, whatever it took.
What it took, and what Stalin managed to force through, transformed the country and its ruler in profound and enduring ways. Rather than a tale of a deformed or paranoid personality creating a political system, this is a story of a political system shaping a personality. Building and running a dictatorship, with power of life or death over hundreds of millions, in conditions of capitalist self-encirclement, made Stalin the person he became.
Wholesale collectivization of agriculture, some 120 million peasants, necessitated levels of coercion that were extreme even for Russia, but Stalin did not flinch; the resulting mass starvation and death elicited criticism inside the party even from those Communists committed to the eradication of capitalism. By 1934, when the situation had stabilized and socialism had been built in the countryside too, the internal praise came for his uncanny success in anticapitalist terms. But Stalin never forgot and never forgave, with bloody consequences as he strove to consolidate the state with a brand new elite.
Stalin had revived a great power with a formidable industrialized military. But the Soviet Union was effectively alone, with no allies and enemies perceived everywhere. The quest to find security would bring Soviet Communism into an improbable pact with Nazi Germany. But that bargain did not work out as envisioned. The lives of Stalin and Hitler, and the fates of their respective countries, drew ever closer to collision.
Stalin: Waiting for Hitler: 1929-1941 is, like its predecessor Stalin: Paradoxes of Power: 1878-1928, nothing less than a history of the world from Stalin's desk. It is also, like its predecessor, a landmark achievement in the annals of the biographer's art. Kotkin's portrait captures the vast structures moving global events, and the intimate details of decision-making.

Q: Inverse Laplace transform of $\frac{\sqrt{2s}}{\sinh\sqrt{2s}}$ and $\frac{1}{\cosh\sqrt{2s}}$ (related to Brownian motion) I was reading "2018The computation of the probability density and distribution functions for some families of random variables by means of the Wynn-p accelerated Post-Widder formula" and run into the following question.
The paper gives two Laplace transforms:
$$L_{X_S}(s)=\frac{\sqrt{2s}}{\sinh\sqrt{2s}}\ \text{and} \ L_{X_C}(s)=\frac{1}{\cosh\sqrt{2s}},$$
where $X_S$ and $X_C$ can be interpreted as the hitting time of a Brownian motion in $\mathbb{R}$ and $\mathbb{R}^3$. The paper also says that the densities are:
$$f_{X_S}(x)=\pi^2\sum_{k=1}^\infty(-1)^{k+1}k^2e^{-\frac{1}{2}k^2\pi^2x}\ \text{and} \ f_{X_C}(s)=\pi \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}(-1)^k\left(k+\frac{1}{2}\right)e^{-\frac{1}{2}(k+\frac{1}{2})^2\pi^2x}.$$
I am interested in the density functions, i.e., the inverse of Laplace transforms. There is one way in "2001Probability laws related to the Jacobi theta and Riemann zeta functions, and Brownian excursions", through $L_{X_C}$. However, that paper mentions reciprocal property between $X_C$ and $X_C$ and between $X_S$ and $X_C$, which I do not understand.
In particular, since $\int_0^\infty e^{-sx}e^{-ax}dx=\frac{1}{s+a}$ for $a>0$, directly applying Laplace transform to densities may lead to divergent series, e.g., $\sum_{k=1}^\infty(-1)^{k+1}\frac{k^2 \pi^2 }{s+\frac{1}{2}k^2\pi^2}$. A similar expression $\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^2+b^2}=\frac{\pi}{b}\coth\pi b$ is also noticed, but I cannot see how to apply it so far.
Any help would be appreciated.

A: The inverse Laplace Transform, $f(t)=\mathcal{L}^{-1}\left\{F(s)\right\}$ with $F(s)=1/\cosh(\sqrt{2s})$, is given by the Bromwich integral
\begin{align}
f(t)&=\frac1{2\pi i }\int_{c-i\infty}^{c+i\infty}\frac{1}{\cosh(\sqrt{2 s})}e^{st}\,ds
\end{align}
$F(s)$ has simple poles at $s_n=-\frac{1}{2}(n+\frac{1}{2})^2\pi^2$.
With the residue theorem we can write
\begin{align}
f(t)&=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \text{Res}\left(\frac{1}{\cosh(\sqrt{2 s})}e^{st}, s=s_n\right)\\
&=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\lim_{s\to s_n}\left((s- s_n)\frac{1}{\cosh(\sqrt{2 s})}e^{st}\right)\\
&=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{\sqrt{2 s_n}}{\sinh(\sqrt{2 s_n})}e^{s_n t}
\end{align}
where I used l'Hôpital's rule. With $\sinh(\sqrt{2 s_n})=i\sin((n+\frac{1}{2})\pi)=i(-1)^n$ we now find
\begin{align}
f(t)&=\pi \sum_{n=0}^\infty(-1)^n \left(n+\frac{1}{2}\right) e^{s_n t}\\
&=\pi \sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^n \left(n+\frac{1}{2}\right) \exp{\left[-\frac{1}{2}\left(n+\frac{1}{2}\right)^2\pi^2 t\right]}
\end{align}
which is equal to the stated result.
Likewise,
\begin{align}
f(t)&=\mathcal{L}^{-1}\left\{\frac{\sqrt{2s}}{\sinh(\sqrt{2s})}\right\}\\
&=\sum_{n=1}^\infty \text{Res}\left(\frac{\sqrt{2s}}{\sinh(\sqrt{2s})}e^{st}, s=-\frac{1}{2}n^2\pi^2\right)\\
&=\sum_{n=1}^\infty\lim_{s\to -n^2\pi^2/2}\left((s+n^2\pi^2/2)\frac{\sqrt{2s}}{\sinh(\sqrt{2s})}e^{st}\right)\\
&=-\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{n^2 \pi^2}{\cosh(\sqrt{-n^2\pi^2})} \exp{\left(-\frac{1}{2}n^2\pi^2 t\right)}\\
&=\pi^2\sum_{n=1}^\infty (-1)^{n+1}n^2 \exp{\left(-\frac{1}{2}n^2\pi^2 t\right)}\\
&=\pi^2\sum_{n=1}^\infty (-1)^{n+1}n^2 \exp{\left(-\frac{1}{2}n^2\pi^2 t\right)}.
\end{align}

Exclusive: Calvin Goldspink returns with new single and tells us all about his career to-date
"I'm exploring electronica and big hooks for this next one, moving away from the guitars… I want to have tunes that can blast at festivals and really get stuck in your head."
MIX SHARE SHARE TWEET PIN
by Daniel Falconer | 20 November 2020
After a six-year hiatus, Calvin Goldspink is back with his brand new single, The Cold
Following a six-year hiatus, singer, actor and all-round entertainer, Calvin Goldspink has returned to the music scene, today (November 20th) dropping his second new single of 2020.
To celebrate the release, we got the chance to chat to the former S Club 8 member all about his latest tune, his time in the showbiz industry to-date and much more!
Here's what he had to say…
Tell us a little bit about life in the past six years! We've not seen you for so long...
I've been busy living in LA! I started a company that specialises in showcasing the hottest emerging artists through our platform - Breaking Sound.
Before the pandemic, our team had grown it to 60+ shows running monthly across the US and UK. We can't wait to resume.
In the mean time, we have expanded operations to internet radio with Breaking Sound Radio playing 24/7, 365 days a year worldwide.
You can download and listen in on the iOS and Android apps, or on Alexa simply by saying "Alexa play Breaking Sound Radio", or through the website at www.breakingsoundradio.com.
What should fans expect from your new music, such as your new single The Cold?
I've had lots of time to develop musically since my first EP release in 2014. I've really been enjoying experiencing life and learning new ways to be creative and express myself.
The Cold is a teaser release leading up to a brand-new EP I'm currently working on here in the UK.
I'm exploring electronica and big hooks for this next one, moving away from the guitars… I want to have tunes that can blast at festivals and really get stuck in your head.
Music has been a huge lifesaver for people in lockdown; what have you been listening to in the past few months?
I get to discover so much music through my platform Breaking Sound. Picking anyone in particular is very hard but Mansionair, NoMBe, Theophilus London, Tame Impala are a few on repeat currently!
If you had the chance to collaborate with anybody, dead or alive, who would you choose and why?
LCD Sound System would be very fun. I saw them live in LA and they blew my socks off!
Who would you note as some of your biggest influences and inspirations for your music?
I grew up on The Eagles, lots of Motown and soul. That coupled with everything I'm exposed to now on the more electronic side certainly gives me lots of inspiration.
What are some of the biggest challenges you've faced in your career in the industry to-date?
Really finding my footing in the industry. From coming out of a very controlled inner circle like S Club, where everything is done for you, to suddenly having to steer and navigate the entire ship yourself was definitely a big change.
Calvin Goldspink says his new single is about "learning from the mistakes" that leave you "stuck in a rut"
You obviously joined the business at a young age; how difficult (or easy) was that experience for you in your teen years?
I loved everything I did as a kid. I hated the dancing choreography part though; I was always terrible at memorising the routines!
But we got to do so many amazing things, it was definitely the best music school I could have gone to.
What advice would you have for others who may just be breaking into the industry?

Thank you for your time.

A: Note: this will work, but it is also so much slower than it needs to be. If you can fix the schema for your column (because as it is the schema really is broken) then you can use indexes and real date operations on the column, which can make this at least a full order of magnitude faster, if not more.
How? Right now you must run this substring() call on every row in the table, even rows you don't care about, because until you run the function you can't know whether or not the row will match your condition.
If you have a real date column, however, you can index the column, which will allow you to jump almost directly to the part of the table where the rows will match the WHERE condition. Then, rather than running the substring call on each row you can write the query logically as two inequality checks (>='20210101' and <'20220101'), such that you're no longer mutating any stored data at all: it's just the conditional checks, which is far more efficient.
Therefore the choice is expensive function call for every row in the table, or cheap conditional checks for a few rows.
Additionally, it's poor practice to try to re-use the MySqlConnection object. The object you have in code is a lightweight wrapper around much heavier items managed by ADO.Net. When you try to re-use this object you make things slower, because you gained efficiency in the small thing while interferring with the code that already exists to manage the big thing. Instead, go ahead and create a brand new MySqlConnection for each query; it really is more efficient that way.
private void Form4_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    string sql = "SELECT tituloPalestra FROM Palestras WHERE substring(diaPalestra,7,4) = @year";
    try
    {
        using (var con = new MySqlConnection("connection string here"))
        using (var cmd = new MySqlCommand(sql, con))
        {
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@year", DateTime.Now.Year.ToString());
            con.Open();

            using (var resultado = cmd.ExecuteReader())
            {
                while (resultado.Read())
                {
                    comboBox1.Items.Add(resultado["tituloPalestra"].ToString());
                }
            }

DOES ANYONE THINK WE SHOULD SIGN KEVIN CARTER? I THINK HE WOULD BE A GOOD PICKUP FOR THE DEFENSE. HE KNOWS VERMEIL AND CUNNINGHAM.
I think it would be a good move. But I hear he's likely to re-sign with the Titans, figuring he might as well stay there if he has to play for less money.
ithink it would be crazy. They guy was expected to make arund 6.3 mill this year there is no way he will play for a whole lot less than that. I think They might get Rolle though. I think samari was expected to get around 5.5 this year and KC needs Secondary help rather than D line. So i could see this happening. Then getting a solid D tackle or end in the 1st rd of the draft.

Johann Mathias Baron Butz von Rolsberg, auch Matthias, (* 17. Januar 1712 in Zlabings; † 22. September 1803 in Olmütz, begraben in Kirchwiedern) war ein hoher geistlicher Würdenträger in Mähren aus der Familie Putz von  Rolsberg.

Biographie
Der älteste Sohn des Matthias Heinrich, Herr auf Kirchwiedern und Maires, studierte von 1731 bis 1735 im  Pontificium Collegium Germanicum et Hungaricum de Urbe (Germanicum) in Rom. Weiters urkundlich erwähnt wurde er danach erstmals als Dechant von Katscher, das nach dem Ersten Schlesischen Krieg 1742 an Preußen gefallen war, wo er 1745/46 eine neue Kirche in Knispel bauen ließ und betätigte sich sodann Dechant zu Müglitz (1746–1750).

Der Canonicus Curatus der königlichen Kollegiatkirche zu Brünn (Brno) wurde nach 1750 Dom- und Kapitularherr in Olmütz, Senior des Metropolitankapitels sowie infulierter, d. h., ein praepositus mitratus, der das Recht hat, die Bischofsinsignien zu tragen, Olmützer Dompropst und Generalvikar, Rektor der theologischen Fakultät Olmütz.

Er stand ab 1776, nach dem Tod von Bischof Hamilton, an der Spitze der Diözese Olmütz als Generalvikar. Er übte die Verwaltung über die Geistlichkeit ganz Mährens aus, auch war er maßgeblich an der bevorstehenden Gründung einer neuen Diözese in Brünn sowie  der Ernennung des ersten Erzbischofs von Olmütz, Anton Theodor von Colloredo; beteiligt.

Das 1786 auf zerstückten Meierhofsgründen von ihm angelegte Dorf Rolsberg bei Olmütz, führte seinen Namen. Heute ein Ortsteil von Olmütz erinnert immer noch ein Straßenname an ihn.

Er vererbte alle Besitzungen seinem Bruder Maximilian Josef Franz, der den Stamm fortsetzte.

Body found in Alberta river is that of missing Glace Bay man
SYDNEY — Alberta RCMP have confirmed that the body found Saturday in the Bow River is that of a former Glace Bay resident.
SaltWire Network | Posted: July 10, 2014, midnight | Updated: Oct. 2, 2017, 11:24 a.m. | 1 Min Read
Justin McNeil, a 19-year-old from Glace Bay is missing after falling into a river near Calgary on Sunday.
"Yes, it was Justin McNeil," said Sgt. Josée Valiquette, an Alberta RCMP spokeswoman, on Thursday.
McNeil, 19, went missing June 22 while on a camping trip with friends at the Nature's Hideaway Campground, 40 kilometres south of Calgary. According to RCMP, they were on the Highwood River bank near the Bow River and McNeil went into the river for a swim. But he was immediately caught in the current and swept downstream. His friends phoned for help and area police and firefighters began a search of river, banks and surrounding area, including 10 km downstream. After an initial search failed to find any sign of McNeil, friends and family continued looking and the body was found Saturday by recreational fishermen.
For family members, the confirmation is bittersweet.
"We found out last night," said Sheila MacLean, McNeil's biological mother, her voice breaking. "I'm relieved to confirm that it's him, but I had that hope, you know, that maybe he was just somewhere else."
A memorial service will be held in Calgary on Saturday at St. Mary's University College and a later service will also be held in Cape Breton.


This conference was officiated by Dr Charles Morrison, Co-Chair of PECC and it is a prelude to the APEC meeting in Honolulu at the end of 2011.
This conference serves as an opportunity to share interim findings as we run up to the 20th PECC General Meeting hosted by USAPC (US Asia Pacific Council/ US national committee for PECC) in Washington D.C. in September this year. The effort aims to contribute to increasing more direct input to the APEC process by the regional experts in their respective fields. This year, the key motivation is to help APEC economies cope with external shocks such as the US Government's second quantitative easing, and rebalance export-driven development model by identifying services as an alternative growth pillar.
The conference has four main objectives: Take stock on the latest development amongst APEC economies in terms of sustainable and inclusive growth; Share experience in exploring how services can also be a pillar of growth for emerging economies; Evaluate how APEC economies can better cope with volatile capital flows; and Re-examine the effectiveness of APEC amidst the growing complexity in regional institutional architecture.
Discussions from the conference are expected to contribute to this year's State of The Region (SOTR) report published by PECC which serves as a key medium to influence the policy makers directly involved in the APEC official process. SOTR is released immediately prior to the annual APEC summits and the venue this year will be Honolulu, Hawaii.


The raciest paddleboard in our range, Endeavour is a sleek and fast downwind SUP designed to cover great distances at speed. It's the longest paddleboard that we offer, and the thinnest; glide and straight-line tracking are its key attributes thanks to the long waterline and deep concave. Endeavour is the ship most closely associated with Captain Cook (it was the only vessel on his first voyage of discovery and was the first to reach Australia's east coast) but our Endeavour is similar in name only, being far more drawn out and built for speed. With a high bow to cut through and ride above any chop that you come across, Endeavour is a long-distance performer as suited to the open water of large bays and lakes as it is on long stretches of river or estuary.
If you're thinking of purchasing a paddleboard, we are happy to break the payments down into more manageable chunks. Simply pick the 'pay via payment plan' option below.
Building your board with your own two hands and literally knowing it inside and out makes it much more than just another purchase; you develop a deeper connection with your surfboard. Ever put together some shelving or put a picture hook up on a wall? That's about all the experience that you'll need. You'll build the board of your choosing alongside a maximum of two other people, with us guiding you through each step of the process.
Please be aware that each board is handmade to order. By placing an order for an Otter paddleboard you're commissioning a custom product, which means we can't guarantee a time for completion. Once your order has been placed, we'll get in touch with you and begin the process of building your unique paddleboard.
We don't have any testimonials for this, yet. If you love your Endeavour and want to tell the world, please get in touch.

Appeal from the examiner's decision refusing to allow claims 10 through 18 and 21, which are all the claims remaining in this application.
Claim 10 is representative:
10. A method of continuously attaching an elongated narrow elastic element to a moving flexible sheet material to be employed as an outer moisture impermeable envelope for receiving an absorbent paid of a disposable diaper, said elastic element fitting in a stretched condition substantially along a curvilinear-shaped-cut-out of said envelope to allow a leg therethrough when said envelope is constructed as a diaper, said method comprising the steps of:
(a) passing an elongated narrow elastic element, along a longitudinal path of travel, in a stretched condition;
(b) intermittently depositing liquid adhesive material at high temperature on said elastic element during said passing step (a);
(c) passing said elastic element, with adhesive material thereon, over a fixed guide means;
(d) passing said elastic element with adhesive material over a carriage means, arranged down-stream of the fixed guide means in the direction of travel, and capable of being moved intermittently in a transverse direction;
(e) feeding said flexible sheet around the peripheral surface of a rotary drum such that the sheet remains in contact with said drum for about one-half the rotation of said drum, said drum having a smooth outer surface which is maintained at a substantially constant temperature, said temperature being less than the temperature of said liquid adhesive, the difference between the temperature of the adhesive at the time of contact with said flexible sheet and the temperature of said peripheral surface of the drum being at least 20<<degrees>>>>> C; and
(f) positioning said movable carriage immediately next to the periphery of said rotary drum at a location such that said carriage means and said drum are not in contact with each other and such that the adhesive coated elastic element contacts said flexible sheet supported by said drum, and said sheet together with said elastic element remain in contact with said drum for at least a portion of the rotation of said rotary drum before leaving it, moving said carriage means intermittently in a direction transverse to the direction of rotation of said drum whereby said elastic element is laid-down on said drum in an oscillating path, and whereby said elastic element is intermittently attached in a stretched condition along a curved-shaped line only by laying said elastic element on said flexible sneet due to the temperature difference between the drum and the adhesive material;
*2 and with the provision that steps (e) and (f) are conducted on a single drum and said temperature difference is sufficient to lead to an immediate adhesion effect capable of withstanding the transverse forces to which said elastic element is subjected owing to the movement of said carriage means.
Penman 3,150,023 Sep. 22, 1964
Bourgeois 3,828,367 Aug. 13, 1974
Buell 4,081,301 Mar. 28, 1978
Klasek et al. (Klasek) 4,293,367 Oct. 6, 1981
Teed 4,405,397 Sep. 20, 1983
Claims 10 through 16 and 21 stand rejected under 35 USC 103 as unpatentable over Klasek in view of the combined teachings of Buell, Penman, and Teed. Claims 17 and 18 stand rejected under the same statutory provision as unpatentable over the same combination of references, further taken in view of Bourgeois.
We shall not sustain these rejections.
Initially, we consider the question whether the Penman reference is from a nonanalogous art. First, we find it clear that this reference is not within the field of appellants' endeavor. On the contrary, Penman relates to the art of carpet manufacture whereas appellants' field of endeavor is the art of manufacturing disposable diapers. Indeed, each of the patents issued to Klasek, Buell, Teed, and Bourgeois relates to the art of making diapers, as does appellants' specification disclosure. Penman, which stands apart, relates to the art of making carpets.
Second, it is our judgment that Penman is not reasonably pertinent to the particular problem with which appellants were involved, i.e., the application of an elastic strip to a web in a curvilinear pattern. In determining this latter point, we have evaluated and weighed the Courtray declaration filed under Rule 132 wherein declarant sets forth reasons why the artisan 'would not look to the carpet manufacturing process and equipment field to solve a problem in the application of elastic to a web in a curvilinear pattern'. See Paper No. 15, page 1. We note that the examiner entered and considered the declaration (see Paper Nos. 18 and 22) but found same 'not persuasive' because, according to the examiner, declarant merely offers his opinion on the art of carpet making. The examiner discounted that opinion because declarant is not established as an expert in that art. We disagree with the examiner's analysis. The examiner does not deny that declarant is skilled in the art of manufacturing diapers, although declarant does not claim to have the same level of skill in the art of making carpets. In this regard, we note that persons having ordinary skill 'could not possibly be aware of every teaching in every art'. See In re Wood, 559 F.2d 1032, 202 USPQ 171, 174 (CCPA 1979). Certainly, declarant expresses skepticism whether a person having ordinary skill in the art of manufacturing disposable diapers would consider the carpet manufacturing process and equipment field as reasonably pertinent to the particular problem with which the appellants were involved. As stated in In re Dow Chemical Company, 837 F.2d 469, 5 USPQ 2nd 1529 (Fed. Cir. 1988), skepticism expressed by an expert in the art is entitled to fair evidentiary weight.
*3 We also find that the examiner's characterization of the problem in Paper No. 22, i.e., 'the laminating of continuous running sheets utilizing a hot melt adhesive', is broader than the particular problem with which appellants were involved. Precise definition of the problem is important in determining whether a reference is from a nonanalogous art. Defining the problem too narrowly may result in excluding consideration of relevant prior art. By the same token, defining the problem too broadly, as done here, may result in considering prior art as 'analogous' which is inconsistent with real world considerations. See Panduit Corp. v. Dennison Mfg. Co., 774 F.2d 1082, 227 USPQ 337 (Fed. Cir. 1985), vacated, 475 U.S. 8098 229 USPQ 478 (1986) 8 aff'd on remand, 810 F.2d 1561, 1 USPQ2d 1593 (Fed. Cir. 1987).
Having applied the two-fold test for determining whether a reference is from a nonanalogous art, see In re Wood, supra, we hold that on the facts of this case the Penman reference constitutes nonanalogous art. It is therefore not available as a reference in evaluating the obviousness of appellants' claimed invention under 35 USC 103.
Turning to a consideration of the Teed patent of record, we find that Teed discloses a method for manufacturing disposable diapers wherein elastic strips are applied in a straight line. This is illustrated in Figure 8, note rectilinear elastic strips (16) therein. Klasek, on the other hand, discloses a method for manufacturing disposable diapers wherein the elastic strips are applied in a curvilinear profile, and Klasek requires that the web and elastic be secured together by a prior of juxtaposed rolls acting in concert. See particularly Klasek, Figures 4 and 9. Certainly, Klasek's method involving a pair of rolls could be modified per the disclosure of Teed which appears to illustrate the use of a single roller. In our view, however, such proposed modification amounts to a hindsight reconstruction of the prior art patents in order to arrive at appellants' invention. Without having the benefit of appellants' disclosure, the artisan would view Klasek's pair of rolls as serving an important function in facilitating the application of elastic strips in a curvilinear profile. As discussed supra, the elastic strips in Teed are applied in a straight line and we disagree that the artisan would have found it obvious to substitute a single roller from Teed for a pair of rollers in Klasek, whose objective is to apply elastic strips in a curvilinear profile.
The mere fact that the prior art could be modified in the manner proposed by the examiner would not have made the modification obvious unless the prior art suggested the desirability of the modification. See In re Gordon, 733 F.2d 900, 221 USPQ 1125 (Fed. Cir. 1984) and cases cited therein. We have carefully reviewed the Klasek and Teed references in their entireties, and we find no express or implied suggestion in the collective teachings of these references which would have motivated the artisan to combine them in the manner proposed.
*4 In conclusion, we hold that the Penman reference constitutes nonanalogous art and is therefore not available as a reference in evaluating the obviousness of appellants' claimed invention under 35 USC 103. With respect to the Teed patent of record, we conclude that Teed is not properly combinable with the 'primary' reference to Klasek in the manner proposed by the examiner. Penman and Teed are essential to the examiner's case of obviousness. The examiner does not contend, nor do we find, that the combination of Klasek and Buell or the combined teachings of Klasek, Buell and Bourgeois are sufficient to establish the obviousness of appellants' claimed invention. Accordingly, the examiner's decision refusing to allow claims 10 through 18 and 21 is reversed.
REVERSED.

French Minister Says He Won't Resign Over Death of Protester

World French Politics Francois Hollande Bernard Cazeneuve Socialist Party
French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve, a close political ally of President Francois Hollande, dismissed on Wednesday calls for his resignation after the death of a young ecology protester during clashes with police.
Remi Fraisse, 21, was killed during a violent stand-off over the weekend between police and ecology protesters seeking to prevent construction of a dam in the Testet wetlands area of southern France. Supporters, including local farmers, say the project will help with irrigation of the zone.
Presenting initial findings on the death, a state prosecutor said on Tuesday he was probably the victim of an offensive grenade, an explosion-filled device sometimes used by police to disperse crowds in serious riot situations.
"I have absolutely no intention of quitting when I am doing my duty to the state and the republic," Cazeneuve told Europe 1 radio, adding that investigators had a "moral duty" to find out what happened and that any police abuse would be sanctioned.
Leaders of France's Greens Party, one-time government partners of Hollande's ruling Socialists, have criticised the government for not condemning more forcefully Fraisse's death. Cazeneuve announced on Tuesday that the use of offensive grenades would be suspended pending the investigation results.

KSRealityBites: Ban imposed on Ayurvedic products by EU!
Ban imposed on Ayurvedic products by EU!
Ayurvedic medicine is basically a system of traditional medicine native to India & practiced in other parts of the world as a form of alternative medicine. In a shocking development, the European Union (EU) has imposed a ban on all Ayurvedic products across Europe with effect from Sunday. The sale of stock ordered before the ban has been allowed.
The ban will serve as a big blow to the emerging ayurvedic market in Europe. A large number of patients in Europe depend on Ayurvedic medicines due to the cost & side effects of allopathic medicines. Europe has thousands of ayurvedic clinics & practitioners. They will be badly affected. The same will be in case of the patients, who 've been relying on the traditional ayurvedic treatment!
European Union has introduced a directive that bans sale of Ayurvedic medicine from May 1. The directive that is effective from May 1 states that Ayurvedic & other herbal medicines will need to be licensed under EU directive passed in 2004. The products marketed before 2004 can continue to market till April 30, 2011.
The resistance for this EU directive has come from users and promoters of Ayurvedic medicines & referred Traditional Herbal Medicinal Products Directive, 2004/24/EC from EU as "discriminatory & disproportionate".
Ayurvedic medicine has been in practice from ages. The news does not give the basis for EU directive, whether it was triggered by any adverse event or just a mandate put forth by EU. Does this directive mean that Ayurvedic medicines 've to go under clinical trials like drugs developed by pharmaceutical companies? What do you think about the EU directive, voice your opinion in our comment section.


If we don't dominate possession and bag a few goals something is seriously wrong. Disappointed not to see RLC and CHO start...….
Arizzabalaga ! Arizzabalaga ! Bakes bread in his Aga Gets occasional cramp He's such a cheeky scamp Not listening to Sarri Last seen on safari Arizzabalaga ! Arizzabalaga !
Yeah...fine him a few grand, demote him the bench for a few games ...that'll teach 'em. I'd go further and make him park in the visitors car park, wash his own kit and buy his own laces. Not for too long of course....have to remember he's a superstar after all.
Thought we grew into the game and they all look fired up which was good to see. Notwithstanding, Kepa's performance prior to shootout was a disgrace and indefensible. Another reason I'm rapidly losing interest in the sport. Imagine a batsman refusing to walk or Eddie Jones's directives being ignored...bad example to all. He's a brat that I don't want to see wear the shirt again... Hopefully Sarri gets some proper backing now.
Exactly....mind you they did have Sammy Lee on the coaching staff....deep pockets required now.
Of course winning is important, but would be equally pleased to see us change our strategy. Probably employing Luiz as a 'rush-goalie' is a step too far, but a change in formation and a few fresh faces would be equally encouraging.
That's it Chelsea. Hoof it to Eden and hope he beats 6 men and then slots it home. That's the way to do it.
Scanning the various transfer threads today has made for some of the most depressing reading I can recall. Echo most of the sentiments from you sensible chaps and totally do not understand why we're not in pole position for a much needed world class attacker.
Heavy as in 'David Unsworth' heavy?
Always fearful when opening such negative threads.....wasn't disappointed....absolutely pointless. Give GC a break please .... And OP, I think your warm milk is ready.
And Huddersfield beat Utd.....not too shabby a day after all.


A new documentary looks at what happened after the city tore down 14,000 units of public housing.
For most of the 20th century, Atlanta was known for its public housing. The city had pioneered the concept in the 1930s, opening Techwood Homes as the nation's first government-owned housing project in 1936. By the early 1990s, the Atlanta Housing Authority owned roughly 14,000 individual units across 43 properties, though more than 5,000 of these dilapidated apartments had been deemed uninhabitable by then. At the time, the city held the dubious title of having the highest proportion of its residents in public housing in the nation.
Two decades later, that proportion has fallen all the way to zero. Far sooner and far faster than other cities, Atlanta has systematically torn down its traditional brick and cinder block public housing projects, beginning in the lead-up to the 1996 Summer Olympics. Former residents received vouchers to help pay for privately managed apartments and houses, and the city made plans to replace its public housing stock with mixed-income developments, much of it through federal Hope VI grants or private investment. The last residents moved out in 2009, and the final property — the Palmer House high rise — came down in 2011.
Looking at these two decades of rapid residential change, Atlanta native and filmmaker King Williams is looking for an answer to a seemingly obvious question. With his in-production documentary The Atlanta Way, Williams asks: Where did all of these people end up?
"Everyone pretty much has this idea that's really not grounded by facts."
Atlanta's large-scale demolition of its housing projects was intended to spread low-income families out throughout the city and region. These efforts, leaders promised, would break up neighborhoods with clusters of entrenched poverty and high crime rates. Four years after the last residents moved out, it's up for debate just how much these promises have been fulfilled.
Many in metro Atlanta assume that the city's system of private vouchers has pushed former residents out to the suburbs, particularly the increasingly poor and increasingly non-white Clayton County to the south. But Williams' efforts to track former public housing residents have shown this isn't necessarily the case. "Everyone pretty much has this idea that's really not grounded by facts," he says.
Interview with Diane Wright, who lived in Atlanta's Hollywood Courts.
Today, half a decade after that meeting was captured on film, Williams and his team say they still don't know where many subjects ended up, even activists like Wright who play a major role in their documentary. One of the major tasks for the final six months of production, Williams says, will be finding these characters again and telling their stories. "It is very difficult to find people even for us now, today," Williams says. "For most people when they get the Section 8 vouchers, they move to other areas." He's heard through the grapevine that Wright has ended up on the south side of Atlanta, one of the top destinations for displaced residents.
Part of the Kickstarter funds will be used to gain rights to use news footage on the demolition, like these above, in the final film.
Not everywhere has been so lucky. Williams says that many of the areas where he filmed in 2008 and 2009, including Bowen Homes, Bankhead Courts, and Hollywood Courts have not truly been revitalized. The land stands mostly vacant, turned into empty lots and makeshift parks where neighborhoods don't really need them.
And for the places that have been redeveloped, Williams sees this as a story of gentrification, with all of the phrase's positive and negative connotations of revitalization and displacement. Williams, who has worked for filmmaker and outspoken gentrification critic Spike Lee, says the documentary gets back to the very roots of the word "gentrification," dating back to the old systems of landed gentry in rural England.
The phrase "The Atlanta Way" was used throughout the 20th century to describe the processes of compromise between black and white elites, a negotiation strategy that prevented both total chaos and real progress for the city during the civil rights era. Williams heard this phrase over and over again from displaced residents, and he's come to think of the process of demolition and revitalization as one defined by this top-down strategy. "It's the idea of the gentry, the landowning class, or the higher ups making decisions which affect the lower ends," he says. "That's what's happening in Atlanta."

'The Nudge team started out as a sort of Mission Impossible': How the Government's successful Behaviour Insights Team has had a profound effect on Whitehall
I am sitting in a featureless meeting room in the Cabinet Office with a man called David Halpern. And I'm about to hear one of the more surprising – but simple insights – into human nature that I've heard in a long time.
"Do you have kids?" Hapern asks.
"No," I reply.
"Well, if you do, then this is worth remembering."
Halpern begins to tell me about the work of American psychologist Carol Dweck, who has spent her career examining how you can improve the academic performance of children. In particular, one set of tests she devised to examine the effect of feedback on learning.
"So you do a maths test and divide your study group in half," he explains. "In one group, after they have done the test, you say, good result – you're very smart. And in the other half you say, good result – that was a really good effort. Then both groups are given a really hard maths test a week later. It is deliberately hard and, of course, some kids give up in the face of that.
