EPL: Tottenham to hijack Arsenal's first January signing
Tottenham Hotspur are set to hijack Arsenal's first January signing, Philippe Coutinho.
Coutinho, who currently plays for Barcelona, is all but set to arrive at Arsenal after their manager Mikel Arteta gave the green light to pursue the deal.
Coutinho's representatives are traveling to London to conclude talks with Arsenal.
But according to El Nacional, Tottenham could offer to take Coutinho off Barcelona's hands.
Antonio Conte's side are considering trying to persuade the Catalan club to let the Brazilian join Spurs on a free transfer before the January window closes.
However, it remains to be seen whether the Premier League side will be willing to match Coutinho's current £370,000 per week wage.
Coutinho has played in the Premier League before during his time at Liverpool.
The 29-year-old left Liverpool in January 2018 to join Barcelona for £142 million.
The playmaker has so far failed to meet expectations at Barcelona and has been blighted by injuries, constant changing of managers and a loss of form.

No problem at all, I will omit your anecdote and keep it general. I just thought it would be nice to give him a mention.
Incidentally, please accept my sympathies for your brother; I thought when editing his obituary last time what an interesting person he sounded.
There is an Old Blues directory on the CHOBA website, though I'm not sure if it's exactly the same as Who's Blue. LInk is at https://portal.christs-hospital.org.uk/ ... login.aspx but you have to register first.
Just spotted this, and will put a mention in the next Old Blue.
Just doing the obituaries for the next issue of The Old Blue, and have been unable to turn up any further information for Eileen Downing. If anyone would like to add any further reminiscences of Eileen, I'd be happy to include them in lieu of a conventional obituary.
There was quite a discussion on the Old Blues Facebook group last night, and I posted a number of times there.

Thrombolysis, also known as thrombolytic therapy, is used to dissolve clots, improve blood flow and prevent damage to tissues and organs. Holy Name Medical Center's Interventional Radiologists use a catheter to either inject clot-busting drugs to the site of the blockage or use a tiny mechanical device to remove or break up the clot.
This treatment is often used as an emergency treatment to dissolve blood clots involving the vessels in the legs, heart, brain or lungs. On eligible patients, the procedure is often successful in breaking up the clot before it causes permanent damage to the organs.


Auricular Therapy is the stimulation of various points on the ear to relieve various symptoms. These points can be needled superficially, or stimulated using other tools that do not pierce the skin, such as ear seeds. These ear seeds are taped on selected ear points and left for a few days, and can be stimulated a few times a day by gently pressing on the seeds. Since the ears receive innervations from both cervical and cranial nerves, stimulation of different areas and points on the ears can also indirectly affect the physiology of the body.
There are different points on the ears that can be used to treat various symptoms such as insomnia, depression, and even help with weight loss and quitting smoking.
Gua Sha is a gentle scraping of the skin surface using a special tool to stimulate the flow of Qi and blood and help expel external pathogens such as wind, damp and cold.
Electroacupuncture is the stimulation of Acupuncture points using a safe and gentle electric current. Electric current is applied to the body through acupuncture needles to further reinforce the release of endorphins. It can also be used for the treatment of pain by stimulating trigger points on the body (also known as "Ashi points" in TCM).

Why Do Some COVID-19 Patients Recover and Some Don't?
Author: Kathy Keatley Garvey
COVID-19 virus. (CDC Photo)
The statistics are staggering, shattering and incredibly sad.
Of the more than 30 million cases of COVID-19 in the United States, 547,000 people have died. They are not numbers: they represent family, friends, co-workers, colleagues, neighbors and acquaintances who have succumbed to this tragic disease.
And today Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns of another surge. Our nation, she says, shows a seven-day average of about 57,000 new COVID-19 cases per day, a 7 percent increase over the last week.
A burning question: Why do some COVID-19 patients recover and some don't?
The laboratory of UC Davis distinguished professor Bruce Hammock, who holds joint appointments with the Department of Entomology and the UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center, may have just pinpointed why.

Their newly published research paper in Frontiers in Physiology indicates that a blood plasma biomarker discovered in hospitalized COVID-19 patients may not only predict the severity of adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) but further research may lead to inhibiting the progression.
The team of eight UC researchers, primarily from the Hammock lab, found that four compounds in the blood of COVID-19 patients are highly associated with the disease. Their paper, "Plasma Linoleate Diols Are Potential Biomarkers for Severe COVID-19 Infections," is published as open access in the current edition of Frontiers in Physiology.
ARDS, characterized by fluid build-up in the lungs, is the second leading cause of death in COVID-19 patients, next to viral pneumonia, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information.
"Different outcomes from COVID-19 infections are both terrifying from a human health perspective and fascinating from a research perspective," said UC Davis lead author and doctoral candidate Cindy McReynolds of the Hammock lab. "Our data provide an important clue to help determine what impacts the severity of COVID-19 outcomes. Initially, we focused on the immune response and cytokine profile as important drivers in severity, but considering what we now know from our study and others in the field, lipid mediators may be the missing link to answering questions such as why some people are asymptomatic while others die, or why some disease resolves quickly while others suffer from long-haul COVID."
Jun Yang, corresponding author (Photo by Kathy Keatley Garvey)
The compounds, known as leukotoxins and leukotoxin diols, originate from linoleic acid, the body's most abundant dietary fat, said Hammock, who holds a joint appointment in the Department of Entomology and Nematology and the UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center and directs the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NEIHS) Superfund Research Program at UC Davis. "The leukotoxins (also called EpOMEs) are converted to the leukotoxin diols (also called DiHOMES) by the soluble epoxide hydrolase we work on."
"The hypothesis advanced in this paper is that because the leukotoxins have been associated with serious illness and death in humans and dogs and the symptoms are those of adult respiratory distress syndrome, these compounds are biomarkers of pulmonary involvement in COVID-19," Hammock said. "We also think that it is the conversion of leukotoxin to the toxic leukotoxin diol that causes pulmonary and perivascular edema and this could be leading to the respiratory complications."
"So the leukotoxins and leukotoxin diols," Hammock said, "are indicators of respiratory problems in COVID-19 patients as plasma biomarkers. They also present a pathway for reducing ARDS in COVID-19 if we could inhibit the soluble epoxide hydrolase, a key regulatory enzyme involved in the metabolism of immune resolving fatty acids."
The UC Davis scientists used clinical data collected from six patients with laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection and admitted to the UC Davis Medical Center, Sacramento, and 44 healthy samples carefully chosen from the healthy control arm of a recently completed clinical study.
The Hammock lab's 50-year research on soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) and its inhibitors led the professor to found and direct EicOsis Human Health, a Davis-based company that is developing a potent soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitor for pain relief. Epoxy fatty acids control blood pressure, fibrosis, immunity, tissue growth, depression, pain, inflammation and other processes.
But more recently, the Hammock lab has turned its attention to using sEH as a means to resolve inflammation associated with COVID-19 and the fibrosis that can follow.
The paper is the work of Hammock, McReynolds and Jun Yang (corresponding author) of the Department of Entomology and Nematology and EicOsis Human Health; Irene Cortes-Puch of the Department of Entomology and Nematology, EicOsis Human Health, and the Department of Internal Medicine's Division of Pulmonary Critical Care and Sleep Medicine; Resmi Ravindran and Imran Khan of the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine; Bruce G. Hammock of UC Davis Department of Veterinary Medicine, Aquatic Health; and Pei-an Betty Shih of the UC San Diego Department of Psychiatry.

Out of 100 artists to make the initial cut, Jordana and her quirky, harmony-propelled a cappella hit "Run" has landed in the Top 10, and is one of just five homegrown talents to be hand-picked by CBC's judges and the only jazz entry remaining.
Watch the video for "Run" on YouTube.
A dazzling fixture in the local and surrounding Jazz community, Jordana has also recently been heard across Mystic Sons, Spotify's Pop Rock playlist, and more for her heavy-hearted love-gone-wrong ballad, "Bitter Sweet Heart" — watch it on YouTube here!
Jazz/pop singer/songwriter Jordana Talsky has made the next cut in CBCMusic's 2018 SEARCHLIGHT competition, landing in the Top 10, and one of five artists selected by the in-house judges.
As the only jazz entry remaining, the spotlight is shining extra bright on this talented singer/songwriter, whose 2017 release Neither of Either garnered critical praise.
Featured in SEARCHLIGHT for "Run" — Jordana's bouncy search for clarity over constraint — her lyrics continue to resonate alongside her harmonies and lush a cappella.
Artists across the country flocked to submit their original material in the annual contest earlier this year, with only 100 making the first round. The Top 10 were chosen Wednesday, March 14th, including five by CBCMusic judges.
The Grand Prize Winner will be announced Monday, March 19.
Of all the extraordinary things setting Jordana Talsky apart — the stylistic breadth of her music, her dexterity with originals and covers, the zigzagging career path that brought her to a musician's life — it's her voice that dazzles most. Exquisite, elastic, expressive beyond words but buoyed by them, Talsky's singing is that rarest of things: utterly unique yet instantly accessible.
And it's why Neither of Either, Talsky's brilliant second album and most assured artistic statement to date, can easily be slotted into pop, jazz, adult contemporary, alternative or some electrifying amalgamation of all four.
Whether she's fearlessly chronicling a tattered relationship, as she does in the candlelit, lump-in-throat ballad "Bitter Sweet Heart," clenching her proverbial fist in the fierce and staccato "Sick" or conjuring a supper-club vibe in the slinky, harmony-propelled a cappella "Run," Talsky brings the heat… and the heart. That the Toronto-based singer/songwriter characterizes music as her form of journaling makes her vivid lyrics even more resonant.
It also explains why the highly in-demand Justin Abedin, who netted multiple Juno Awards with ace former band jackSOUL, stepped up to produce Neither of Either, adding guitar and drum programming. Abedin knew instinctively what the world will soon discover: Jordana Talsky is a towering talent, one far too versatile to fit neatly into a single categorical box.
"There's so many different styles on the album, and there were many discussions about whether these songs could live together," Talsky says, namechecking her esteemed co-writing partners, Canuck-born, L.A.-based wunderkinds Justin Gray and Don Breithaupt (see Mariah Carey, John Legend, Joss Stone, Patricia O'Callaghan) who worked on one track each.
Long before Neither of Either's release, there were clear markers of the accomplishments to come. In 2015, Talsky was nominated as best vocal jazz artist by the Toronto Independent Music Awards. In 2014, she placed as a finalist in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest and as a semi-finalist in the Sarah Vaughan International Vocal Jazz Competition.
Talsky has commanded marquee stages across North America, among them the Iris Jazz Stage series (Amherst, NY), TD Toronto Jazz Festival, TD Newmarket Jazz Festival, and at Spaghettini Lounge (Seal Beach, CA). She has also enjoyed widespread airplay both for Neither of Either and for Standard Deviation, her 2013 debut, a smooth-jazz collection of originals and eclectic covers (Alannah Myles' "Black Velvet," The Police's "Murder by Numbers").
There's a killer cover on the new album, too: a chilly, a cappella reading of Alanis Morissette's "You Oughta Know" ("She is an influence and I was feeling angst-y one day and I just started messing around with it," Talsky howls). More than anything though, Standard Deviation serves as a yardstick for measuring Talsky's monumental — and genre-busting — songwriting growth in the interim.
Interestingly, Talsky's own voice, and not guitar or piano, serves as her primary compositional instrument.
It was while playing those clubs that Talsky ultimately located her musical confidence, boldly eschewing an ostensibly safe career for the potentially topsy-turvy — but far more soul-satisfying — life as a working musician. "I was a lawyer and I practiced full-time for years," Talsky reveals with characteristic frankness. "But just before the release of Neither of Either, I transitioned out of it to pursue music full-time.
"There was always this niggling thing of 'When's it going to be time to follow music?' After some turmoil in my life, I finally said, 'I am doing this.' But in a good way," she laughs. "And I think my story helps people connect emotionally with the music.


If you think that lemons are only good for lemon pies and refreshing drinks, then this article will make you think again. Delicious citrus can be far more useful than you could imagine. Bright yellow fruits have a lot of health and beauty benefits, ranging from cancer defense to acne scar treatment. What's not to like about lemons — they're available, cheap and good for your health.
Bright Side has gathered 9 different ways you can use lemons for natural skin care and beauty treatments thanks to its various health benefits.
Just like many other fresh fruits, lemons have a lot of anti-cancer properties. The most recent study conducted in September 2017, highlights the importance of citrus juices and their extracts in the prevention of cancer as well as their possible use as co-adjuvants in modern oncological therapies. Packed with vitamins, lemon juice protects your cells from damage that can lead to fatal illnesses.
Lemons have a lot of valuable nutrients such as vitamin C, calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, and fiber. The D-limonene in the lemon peel has anti-cancerous properties as well. It has been shown to prevent mammary, liver, lung, and other cancers. Therefore, lemons are excellent cancer fighters that can protect your body naturally and effectively.
You can't reverse the process of aging, but you can use lemons to make your wrinkles less visible and dramatically change the quality of your facial skin. According to the study, lemon oil was found to reduce oxidative damage on the skin's surface. Lemons are rich in vitamin C which encourages collagen production and restores skin elasticity. Natural enzymes in lemon juice tighten loose pores and reduce the appearance of new ones.
You can rely on safe and healthy home remedies to combat wrinkles. Slice a lemon and massage it into wrinkles for a few minutes or use grated lemon peel as a face mask. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, the effect of regular anti-aging skin care routines are visible after at least one month. So don't worry if your face isn't baby-smooth after one week.
Vitamin C is a nutrient that's been proved to lower levels of cortisol, a stress hormone that triggers hunger and fat storage. No single food or beverage will bring about a significant amount of weight loss on its own. However, you can eat certain foods or drink beverages that might be useful for improving weight loss results when consumed as part of a healthy weight-loss program.
Besides, if you drink water infused with lemon instead of a drink that is higher in calories like coffee with sugar or fruit juice, you'll consume fewer calories. While a 330 ml can of Coca-Cola has 140 calories, and there are 46 calories in apple juice per 100 ml, lemon juice mixed with water has 0 calories. Therefore, it can help you lose weight.
Drinking lemon water is a great way to start a simple detox of your body and improve the work of the digestive system. The pectin in the lemon helps to emulsify oils and remove waste from the bowels. The choline in the lecithin and the oils in the citrus skin help liver detoxification to work more effectively. Lecithin leads to an increase in fat splitting, fat absorption, and fat digestion.
1 knob of fresh ginger.
Mix all the ingredients and blend for one minute. Keep the drink in the fridge and make sure to drink it within the next day. For the best results, drink half of the mix before breakfast. It's an amazing brew!
Lemons are rich in essential vitamins and minerals that help increase your energy levels. Lemons are also high in vitamin C, a natural antioxidant which enhances the immune system and has antibacterial properties.
Honey, warm water, and lemon is a time-proven solution for treating a sore throat. Honey coats the throat while the lemon reduces mucus. You'll need to boil water for the hot beverage, add lemons cut into pieces, and honey. Let the drink cool. To relax the throat muscles, drink the tea while it's still warm. If you have a high fever, drink it when it's already cool.
The tasty mix will help shrink swollen throat tissue and create an acidic environment for viruses and harmful bacteria. Warm lemon water is the most effective way to get rid of viral infections and their subsequent symptoms.
Among other nutrients and vitamins, lemons also contain a lot of potassium, which is one of the key elements responsible for better brain function. If you consume lemons on a regular basis you'll feel an improved mental performance and less midday brain fog. You'll feel much happier and more energetic during the day. According to the study, potassium can activate neurons involved in positive thoughts and feelings and plays an important role in serotonin regulation.
One lemon contains a whopping 187% of the recommended daily allowance of vitamin C. Add lemons to your foods and beverages if you're feeling under the weather or when everyone around is getting sick.
Sunburns are never pretty and they feel awful. However, there's a simple yet effective home remedy that can help you reduce redness and ease the agony of a sunburn. You'll need to mix 1 tbs of lemon juice, rosewater, and cucumber juice. Then, soak a cloth in the mixture and place directly onto a sunburn for 30 minutes.
Cucumber and lemon are natural bleaching agents that will reduce the redness of the skin. Vitamin C in lemons minimizes the damage to the skin and lightens dark spots. Make sure you won't be exposed to direct sunlight after using the remedy mix as it can increase your sensitivity to the sun's rays.
The nose's lining contains various tiny blood vessels that tend to bleed quite easily if ruptured. Don't throw back your head when having a nosebleed, but instead, keep it in a neutral position with your chin parallel to the ground while pinching your nose. Lemon juice is another effective home remedy for such emergencies. You'll need to pour 1-2 drops of fresh lemon juice in each nostril. Be sure to use a new dropper.
The bleeding should stop almost instantly due to the high acidity of the lemon juice. Vitamin C will also strengthen the delicate blood capillaries inside your nose. Don't blow your nose because you'll blow the clot out and make it start bleeding again.
Lemons are rich in vitamin C and citric acid, and they do a good job of treating minor acne and acne scars. Vitamin C boosts the production of collagen and keeps the skin smooth and firm — it also encourages the formation of new skin cells. Due to its properties as a natural bleaching agent, lemon juice lightens dark marks and scars. Citric acid cleanses skin cells and washes off impurities. The antibacterial effect of lemon juice kills the bacteria that causes acne flare-ups.
Mix fresh lemon juice and extra-virgin coconut oil and apply it to the damaged areas using a cotton ball. After three minutes, rinse your face with warm water and apply moisturizer. Also, you can combine lemon juice with almond oil to reduce the darkness and maintain healthy skin. Don't use lemon juice if your skin turns red and is itching.

Sebastian Grønning Andersen (født 3. februar 1997 i Aalborg) er en dansk professionel fodboldspiller, der spiller for OFI Kreta.

Karriere

AaB
Grønning avancerede som 19-årig til klubbens førstehold den 10. juni 2016 og skrev i samme ombæring under på en seniorkontrakt på fuldtid med AaB.

Grønning fik sin debut for AaB den 17. juli 2016, da han blev skiftet ind i stedet for Christian Bassogog i 1-1-kampen mod AC Horsens. Han overrev et ledbånd i sin ankel i september 2016, der blev estimeret til at holde ham ude af hele efterårsæsonen. Han var dog med inde omkring holdet i efterårssæsonens sidste kampe i december.

På trods af tilbagevenden fra skade opnåede Grønning blot at spille en kamp for AaB i Superligaen i forårssæsonen 2017, da han blev skiftet ind i det 69. minut i et 4-0-nederlag ude til Odense Boldklub. Han åbnede af samme grund i maj 2017 muligheden for et sommerskifte væk fra AaB med et halvt år tilbage af kontrakten.

Hobro IK
Den 6. juli 2017 skiftede Grønning til Hobro IK på en to-årig kontrakt. AaB fik i forbindelse med salget indarbejdet en tilbagekøbsklausul i kontrakten, således klubben har mulighed for at købe Grønning tilbage inden medio juni 2018.

Han fik sin officielle debut for Hobro IK i Superligaen den 14. august 2017, da han erstattede Quincy Antipas i det 85. minut i en 1-1-kamp ude mod hans tidligere klub AaB. Han pådrog sig samtidig en advarsel i det 89. minut, Hobros anden i kampen. Ved udgangen af 2018-19 forlod Grønning klubben.

Skive IK
Den 19. juli 2019 offentliggjorde Skive IK, at Grønning havde skrevet under på en etårig kontrakt.

Viborg FF
Grønning skrev i sommeren 2020 under på en treårig kontrakt med Viborg FF. I sin første sæson i klubben blev han topscorer med 23 mål og var derfor vigtig i Viborgs oprykning til Superligaen. Han nåede i alt 50 kampe og 31 mål for Viborg.

Suwon Samsung Bluewings
I januar 2022 solgte Viborg Grønning til sydkoreanske Suwon Samsung Bluewings. Opholdet begyndte godt, idet han fik 14 kampe i K League 1 samt to pokalkampe, men mod slutningen af forårssæsonen gled han ud af klubbens førstehold, og i slutningen af januar ophævede klubben kontrakten med Grønning.

AGF
Få dage efter hans afrejse fra Sydkorea skrev AGF kontrakt med Sebastian Grønning for en treårig periode. Opholdet i Aarhus blev dog en skuffelse for Grønning, der blot fik ni kampe på førsteholdet (stort set alle som indskifter) og scorede ét mål.

OFI Kreta
Han skiftede derpå i januar-transfervinduet 2023 til den græske klub OFI Kreta.

MPs slam NDA procurement
posted by Will Green
in Procurement, Public sector
Procurement processes at the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) have been heavily criticised by MPs.
In a report, the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) said an "overly complex and opaque" process had resulted in a contract to clean up nuclear sites being awarded to the "wrong bidder" – Cavendish Fluor Partnership (CFP) – and the payment of £100m to settle legal claims from a losing consortium.
MPs said the evaluation process had more than 700 criteria and the NDA could not confirm whether it had complied with legal advice on the process, saying evaluators believed they had the "leeway to change bidders' scores against evaluation criteria".
The report said the High Court found evaluators were aware CFP would have been excluded from the competition but they had "manipulated the evaluation to avoid that outcome".
"These failures occurred despite six internal and external assurance and audit reviews of the process," said the report. "These reviews only scrutinised parts of the process because the NDA had deliberately limited access to the evaluation proceedings to help ensure that bidders remained anonymous."
The PAC said in 2014 the NDA "decided to rid itself of the vital post of commercial director despite a cross-government review of the management of major contracts that supported the expansion of the scope of the commercial director role".
The report said the NDA "dramatically underestimated the scale and cost of decommissioning the Magnox sites" with CFP submitting nearly 100 requests to change the contract, resulting in costs increasing from £3.8bn in 2014 to £6bn in 2017. This led to the contract being terminated nine years early. MPs said the NDA may have overpaid its previous contractor by £500m for work that was not done.
The PAC also criticised oversight of the NDA's work, with the Treasury and the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy approving the NDA's approach to procurement and contract management.
Geoffrey Clifton-Brown, Conservative MP and committee deputy chair, said: "The NDA is entrusted with some of the most important work affecting health and safety matters in the nuclear industry but this sorry affair casts serious doubt on its ability to perform its role effectively.
"From the design and execution of the procurement process onwards, the handling of the Magnox contract has been an appalling piece of mismanagement and financial waste.
"It is wholly unacceptable that some details of what took place should remain so murky – not least the NDA's inability to fully account for some £500 million of taxpayers' money paid to its previous contractor.
"An independent inquiry examining the Magnox contract is under way and both the NDA and central government say they are acting on its interim recommendations.
"Given the scale and implications of the failings set out in our report, we are not prepared simply to take their word for it. In the coming months we expect to be shown concrete evidence of the progress being made."
In a statement the NDA said: "We will study the committee's recommendations and those to come from the Holliday Inquiry, and have already taken significant steps to address the issues arising from the Magnox competition and contract.
"We are committed to learning from the mistakes made, implement any necessary improvements and continue to focus on the important work of cleaning up the UK's nuclear legacy."

Lift and shift is a popular strategy for cloud migrations. VMware on AWS provides an interesting alternative to EC2. How does the two compare in cost?
Data center migrations are not easy. Past a few dozen servers the entire process is ripe with pitfalls. I've participated or led many data center migrations. Companies invest a tremendous amount of time and money in the identification and mitigation of risk. Even with the investment, it's impossible to see and mitigate every pitfall.
Greg Ferro of the Packet Pushers joined I and Mark Mark a VP of IT during the most recent CTO Advisor Podcast. Both I and Greg shared stories from the field. There's a temptation to undergo transformation during a data center migration. I'll call this a lift and plus. The challenge? Both are a high risk activities. Combining the two increases the risk by multiples. An example of a lift and shift plus is a migration that includes a data center migration that embraces software-defined networking.
The concept of lift and shift to the cloud is tempting. There are tools to convert workloads from on-premises formats to a format that runs native in IaaS public cloud services. This is the equivalent to a lift and shift plus transformation. Performing the conversion of the workload is simple. However, it is a complete change in technology and operations. For example, layer two networking is very different in the 3-major cloud providers vs. the private data center.
Greg Ferro analyses the VMware on AWS announcement at VMworld 2017. Its harder and more complex than you think.
Companies should treat a lift and shift to the cloud with as much if not more care than a lift and shift plus in the data center. At minimum, it means moving from your current networking model to a software-defined migration.
So, what about VMC on AWS? Isn't the value that nothing changes? It would be naive to think this is the case. I suggest to treat a VMC on AWS lift and shift as your would any lift and shift plus. While not as drastic as a traditional cloud migration, there are enough differences in the operating model to raise risks. I.E. if you don't have NSX today, you are moving to an SDN model in VMC on AWS. Again, I've been on projects where millions of dollars were spent in preparation. To think I could identify every risk for your environment would again be naive.
Bottom line is to not underestimate any migration. Whether you are looking at migrating your data center to a co-lo, cloud provider or a hybrid-IT solution such as VMC on AWS, the journey isn't as straight forward as some vendors would have you believe. It is a disruptive process that will stretch both your resources and your tolerance for risk.

Safe Space or Derailment?
By Benny Vimes
In Feminism
During the London Feminist Film Festival the men in the audience were asked to leave by Julia Long, the author of Anti-Porn, The Resurgence of Anti-Pornography Feminism. Long's account of what happened is So I'm a Feminist Troublemaker for Requesting Some Women-only Space? and one of her detractors, Marta Owczarek, wrote about her perspective on the incident at How a feminist debate was derailed by asking all men to leave.
I'm a big believer in peership spaces. I fight for them in the kink community, and there is a TON of resistance to them there. I believe strongly that peership spaces, like women's only space, TNG spaces (events that are for people under 35 usually in the kink world), and queer spaces, have their place in building strong movements and empowering groups of people who lack power in our society.
I believe this because there are benefits to the community as a whole when peership groups can have their own space for awhile, and then come back to the broader movement feeling supported and connected. But they have to come back to a larger movement, a big tent, in order for this to be effective. Peership groups do their best work when they do not create an us-vs-them feeling. TNG groups in the kink community can serve two purposes; one is to demonize older people in the community, and when they do this it's seriously damaging. The other is to create space to educate younger people and bring them into the larger kinky community in groups where they can feel safer, instead of having to go into the larger community feeling intimidated by being the youngest person in the room filled with people their parents age in a sexualized environment.
Therefore, when deciding if an event or group should be a peership space or a big tent space it's crucial to consider the REASONS for doing so. If the intention is to educate the general population and to bring more people into the feminist movement (as this film festival seems to be) then it is appropriate for it to be a big tent space – inclusive of a wide variety of feminists (and even non-feminists!) who can all learn something. If it had been intended as a support space for women, it should absolutely be treated as such.
I think it's crucial for those who create events to think hard about the reasons for making them peership or open events. It sounds like the organizers in this case did what I would have done, and created an open event.
Before this came up I was not familiar with Long but it sounds to me she doesn't have a good grasp on the reasons for or appropriateness of peership spaces. The feminist movement needs peership spaces, but it also needs events that are open to everyone in order to spread the movement and educate a wider base. This is true of many movements, including kink and skepticism too.
For what it's worth, I would have left. I would have been annoyed about it, but mostly because I was loosing an opportunity to learn, and that always annoys me.
The featured image is a shot from the movie, Lesbiana, that was being shown/discussed at the time of this incident.

Thanks for posting this. It has given me the vocabulary to say what I was not able to say before.
I think it's important to think about the context. I also support peership spaces, but it is not always appropriate to request such a space. And since she was not an organizer, I do not believe she had the right to tell people to leave–only the organizers should have the right to do that and to decide how they want the space they are creating to operate.
Also, I do condemn the nasty attacks that have been levied at Long that have nothing to do with her actions and everything to do with sexism and misogyny.
CRJ says:
The question, as with all question of power, is who determines when is it appropriate or not to request a peership space?
That is what worries me with the responses we often get to radfems – they invariably devolve into deep personalist hatred of a sexist misogynist kind.
Can we find a way to respond to radfems that doesn't amount to calling them hysterical or a variation of "die cis scum" (not that "dcs" is bad per se)?
And more importantly, can we see past the provocations and engage the content?
To get at your first question, who determines when it is appropriate or not to request a peership space? Generally I think the organizers/planners of an event should do that. Long was not an organizer or planner of this event, but her request could still have been productive in some circumstances anyway. I don't think these were those circumstances.
I do feel that there is a big difference between a space designed to be a peership space in the first place, and one that someone decides they want to make into a peership space after it has already begun. The first seems perfectly fine with me, while the later seems divisive.
You asked "And more importantly, can we see past the provocations and engage the content?"
What content do you mean in this case? The content I brought forward is a discussion on peership spaces, and appropriate and inappropriate uses of them. I'm curious about what you mean here.
>What content do you mean in this case? The content I ?>brought forward is a discussion on peership spaces, and >appropriate and inappropriate uses of them. I'm curious >about what you mean here.
I mean the more general discussion being had over this event. Not your particular contribution. I apologize for my lack of clarity.
Ah! Well I don't have much to say about that, since I haven't seen the film that was being discussed. Apparently Lesbiana is about lesbian separatists and a commune in the 1970's, but that's all I know about it. It sounds like something I would like to see and discuss though.
Yessenia says:
Dear Ms. Long,
Let's say it's my birthday. Someday soon, it will be your birthday.
I invited you, and Joe, and Bob to my party. You don't like Joe and you don't even know Bob, so you probably wouldn't invite them to your party. Maybe you'll ask me to reconsider the invite. Maybe you'll even decide not to come to my party. That's ok.
But if you do come, please don't uninvite Joe and Bob right before I blow out the candles. That's just rude.

Monolith: A source of lithium — the lightweight element with heavyweight applications.
Lithium orotate is a mineral salt that is normally found in small amounts in all living things.
Other lithium salts have been used for more than a century to treat mania. During the past few decades lithium therapy has become one of the mainstays in the treatment of 'bipolar disorder' (manic-depression). A number of lab studies have kindled interest in the use of lithium for treating Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases.
preventing symptoms of Fragile X Syndrome.
The therapeutic dose of lithium orotate (150 mg/day or less) is much lower than that of the other lithium salts.
Lithium orotate was introduced as a supplement by Dr. Hans Nieper, the innovative German physician, who used it to treat depression, headaches, migraine, epilepsy, and alcoholism. Nieper considered orotates to be superior to carbonates, chlorides, sulfates, and other negative-charged ions as bioavailability enhancers for minerals like lithium.
Accordingly, we will limit our discussion of lithium orotate to a brief summary of relevant research, and let you draw your own conclusions about what medical conditions it may be effective in treating.
In a 2004 review of the subject, D.M. Chuang of the (U.S.) National Institutes of Health wrote: "The neuroprotective and neurotrophic actions of lithium have profound clinical implications. In addition to its present use in bipolar patients, lithium could be used to treat acute brain injuries such as stroke and chronic progressive neurodegenerative diseases."6 Examples of such diseases are Alzheimer's, Huntington's, ALS, Parkinson's, and other less well-known conditions.
Lithium carbonate and lithium citrate (the salts of lithium that have been traditionally used to treat bipolar disorder) have a poor toxicity profile — they show toxic effects at dosages only a little higher than the medically effective dose. 'Bipolar' patients, who usually use high doses of lithium carbonate (typically above 900 mg/day) must therefore receive professional guidance and testing for side effects.
Although the lally-gaggers who control the world's clinical research programs have yet to conduct a clinical trial of lithium as a prevention or treatment for Alzheimer's or for any other neurodegenerative disorder, we needn't wait for them to get their act together. Lithium orotate is available as a nutritional supplement.
Are lithium orotate supplements useful for the conditions and purposes mentioned above? We aren't allowed to tell you, so you should take a look at some of the references cited here, and then decide for yourself.


SACRAMENTO, California, May 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — RiceBran Technologies (NASDAQ: RIBT and RIBTW) (the "Company" or "RBT"), a global leader in the production and marketing of value added products derived from rice bran, announced today the Company's financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2018.
We received $1.76 million of proceeds from warrant exercises during the quarter, which helped to significantly offset cash burn from operations and slightly increase shareholders' equity. Subsequent to the end of the quarter we received proceeds from additional warrant exercises that further improved working capital.
The Company has seen revenue accelerate to favorable levels thus far in the second quarter, but it should be noted that the Delta region is experiencing low milling volumes due to last year's small crop that may limit our growth trajectory in the quarter and is expected to have a negative impact on second quarter EBITDA due to higher transportation and logistics costs associated with a greater mix of our production being sourced in California instead of the Delta region.
Our financial condition remained relatively unchanged during the quarter: We ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $5.1 million compared to $6.2 million and shareholders' equity increased to $14.9 million from $14.7 million on March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. We received $1.76 million of proceeds from warrant exercises during the quarter and Cap Ex totaled $745,000. Subsequent to the end of the quarter we have realized substantial additional proceeds from warrant exercises.
RiceBran Technologies is a food, animal nutrition, and specialty ingredient company focused on the procurement, bio-refining and marketing of numerous products derived from rice bran. RiceBran Technologies has proprietary and patented intellectual property that allows us to convert rice bran, one of the world's most underutilized food sources, into a number of highly nutritious food, animal nutrition and specialty ingredient products. Our global target markets are food and animal nutrition manufacturers and retailers, as well as specialty food, functional food and nutritional supplement manufacturers and retailers. More information can be found in the Company's filings with the SEC and by visiting our website at http://www.ricebrantech.com.
This release contains forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements about RiceBran Technologies' expectations regarding the sufficiency of its cash position to pursue its plans in 2018, the rice milling volumes in the Delta region and the impact of these volumes on its financial performance, and its business plans, future growth, revenue and adjusted EBITDA. These statements are made based upon current expectations that are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties.

The Belford Lawson Mystery
A family story and racism's long shadow
by James Tobin
Published in October, 2009
Among the cognoscenti of Michigan football lore, it is well known that there was not a single African American letterman at U-M between George Jewett in 1892 and Willis Ward in 1932. This forty-year gap is commonly attributed to the attitudes of Fielding Yost, head football coach from 1901 to 1923 and 1925 to 1926 and athletic director from 1921 to 1941. Yost, the son of a Confederate soldier, did not permit black men to wear Michigan's football uniform.
In track and field, there were black Wolverines in Yost's time, including the great William DeHart Hubbard, the 1924 Olympic gold medalist in the long jump. And there was a black letterman in baseball, Rudolph Ash, who batted .405 in 1923. But in football Yost upheld a strict color line--or so it has long been assumed.
Yet a photograph in the U-M's Bentley Historical Library of the 1923 team--national champions, led by the All-American Harry Kipke--appears to show otherwise. There, second from the left in the second row, is an African American player. This was not the formal studio photograph of the team taken annually at season's end, but a field-side photo of men in uniforms and pads. Labeled "U. of M. Football Squad 1923," it was published in the Michigan Daily and several game programs. Captions identify the black man simply as "Lawson."
The facts of his life are fairly easy to establish--except for his role on the Michigan football team. There, questions and ambiguities remain--not only about Lawson, but about the permeability of Yost's color line and the experience of black athletes before the civil rights era.
The player in the picture was Belford Vance Lawson Jr., originally from Roanoke, Virginia. The son of a railroad switchman and a schoolteacher, Lawson went briefly to Ferris Institute (now Ferris State University) in Big Rapids and then enrolled at Michigan in the fall of 1920. He was a member of Alpha Phi Alpha, a leading black fraternity, and of U-M's varsity

debate team. He won awards as an orator. In 1924, he graduated from the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts.
After coaching football for a time at all-black Morris Brown College in Atlanta, Lawson got his law degree at Howard University then went into private practice in Washington, D.C. In the 1930s he helped found the New Negro Alliance, an early force in the fight for civil rights. He was a member of legal teams that argued two successful civil rights cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. He served as national president of Alpha Phi Alpha from 1945 to 1951. As a Democratic Party activist, he became, in 1956, the first African American ever to address its national convention. Lawson retired in 1977 and died in 1985.
His wife, Marjorie McKenzie Lawson, also a U-M grad (LSA 1933, MSW 1934), was a campaign aide to John F. Kennedy and later became the first African American woman appointed to a federal judgeship. She died in 2002.
The Lawsons had one child, Belford V. Lawson III, now an attorney with the Federal Communications Commission in Washington. In the early 1960s, at the elite Groton School, alma mater of Franklin D. Roosevelt and other pillars of the American establishment, the younger Lawson was one of the first black football players named to the All-New England prep squad. After graduating from Harvard, he followed his parents into the law. Now, close to retirement, he would like to learn exactly what happened to his father at Michigan more than eighty years ago.
It was a staple of Lawson family lore that Belford Jr. had been a member of the Michigan team under Yost. In the home there was a navy blue blanket trimmed in maize with a foot-tall letter "M" in the middle. Yet he never spoke much about his experience on the team.
"My father was just so remote, so close-mouthed about his Michigan career," Belford III says. "I always speculated that maybe he didn't want me to find out that he did not formally win a varsity letter. Or maybe he played enough to get a varsity letter, but Yost decided not to give it to him because it was not the time, not the custom.
"I'm content just to find out if there are any records of him actually having been on the field."
So far, no such record has surfaced. The athletic department records in the Bentley Library show that Lawson won varsity reserve letters in his sophomore, junior, and senior years. That meant he was a member of the team but not a starter or a regular substitute. Nor is there any mention in the Michigan Daily or the Michigan Alumnus of his playing in a game. In that era the Daily published thorough, play-by-play chronicles of most games, noting all starters and substitutions, and the Alumnus also carried game accounts.
So perhaps Lawson simply wasn't good enough to play for a national championship team. There would be no shame in that, either for the player or the university. And Lawson's presence on the squad, even as a reserve, would suggest that Yost's color line was not a brick wall.
Yet it appears the truth is more complicated than that.
In 1928, four years after Lawson's graduation, Elton "Tad" Weiman, Michigan's football coach that year, exchanged letters with an Indianapolis lawyer and U-M alumnus named Herbert Wilson. Wilson was trying to assist a young black student who had hopes of making the Michigan football team. He asked Weiman if he would accept a qualified black player. Wilson said: "I know while I was in school, Coach Yost would not permit it."
Coach Weiman replied that he had recently talked things over with the student:
There were certain complications that would be difficult for all with a colored man on the squad; that because of this I did not think it advisable for a colored man to be on the squad unless he was good enough to play a good part of the time. In other words, unless he were a regular or near regular, the handicaps to the squad would be greater than the advantages to say nothing of the difficulties that would encounter the individual, himself. I assured him, however, that any man who could demonstrate that he was the best man for any position would have the right to play in that position...
During the time that I have been at Michigan we have never had a colored candidate for the team who was good enough to play regularly. At one time we did have a backfield man who, had he been white, would probably have been on the squad as a second or third substitute. In a case like that we decided that it was not worth the friction that would result to have him on the squad. I do not know of any other case where a man's color has in any way affected his standing in athletics at Michigan.
It seems very likely that the "backfield man" was Belford Lawson. By "the squad" Weiman probably meant the first team--the starters and the small cadre of regular subs in the era when men played both offense and defense and substitutions were few.
It appears, then, that Lawson was made a reserve, not a "second or third substitute"--which likely would have allowed him some playing time--because of the risk of "complications" and "friction." He rode the bench because the coaches would not stand up to racists--on the team, among the alumni, or in the programs of opposing schools--who would object to a black man playing football as an equal to whites.
In any case, Weiman's letter is unusually clear evidence for the contention--often made by observers of the black experience in many spheres of American life--that it was not enough for a black athlete to be as good as a white player in order to be treated as an equal. He had to be better.
Just one press account referring to Lawson has been found--a Detroit Free Press article in September 1923 about a preseason Michigan scrimmage between a "blue" squad and a "red" squad. The article said: "Lawson, colored halfback on the red, demonstrated his ability at breaking up passes, knocking them down with great regularity."
Good enough to knock down passes thrown by the quarterback of a national championship team but not good enough to take the field in a regular-season game?
Belford Jr. once told his son about an incident that occurred early in his sophomore year. He said he had played well enough as a freshman to win his class numerals. (The numerals--such as "1924"--were a recognition of achievement on the frosh team, usually to be worn on a letter sweater.)
The following fall, needing money, he took a job as a waiter at a campus dining club used by the football team.
The younger Lawson recalls: "An assistant coach--this is what Dad told me--came up to him and said, 'Belford, what are you doing waiting on tables in the Varsity Club?' Dad said: 'Nobody said anything to me about coming out for the varsity, so I assumed you didn't want me back.' And the coach said, 'Belford, that's ridiculous. Everyone knew you won your freshman numerals. Everybody knew you were coming back.'"
So Lawson began to attend practice and made the reserve team. His son isn't sure what to make of this.
"Perhaps the situation was that no assistant coach wanted to be the one who might incur the displeasure of Yost, a notoriously racist guy, by asking if Belford could be invited back," he says. "And so everybody said, 'Well, you do it.' None of the assistant coaches wanted to invite my father back without getting Yost's formal approval, which is one of the classic examples of how racism worked in those years. It's just a hunch on my part. I have no evidence to support it.
"Maybe Dad just didn't know that because he'd gotten his numerals, that was the invitation. Dad was kind of proud that way. He would have wanted to be asked rather than to presume. And I think maybe as a black person in that era, he would not have wanted to presume that he had been invited, and then return and be told that he had not been invited back."
In fact, press accounts from the era refer to players invited by Fielding Yost to come out for the team in the fall. So it's plausible, at least, that Lawson had been correct in waiting for an invitation, and that he was not merely imagining a slight when an invitation did not come.
Belford Lawson Jr. told his son other stories, too--stories that appear to have been untrue.
Lawson told his son he once had tackled the great Red Grange of Illinois. And he said he had been proud to take the field against Iowa, which had defied racial mores by playing Duke Slater, an African American who was named a first-team All-American in 1921.
But Grange didn't play for Illinois until the fall of his sophomore year. That was 1923, Belford Lawson's senior year, and Michigan did not play Illinois that year. So Lawson could not have tackled Grange, at least not in an official game between the two schools. And there is no record in the play-by-play chronicles in the Daily, which nearly always included lists of substitutions, that Lawson entered any game against Iowa.
"Dad's recollections of his on-field exploits seemed so concretely detailed and so vivid, and his body language so animated when he talked about his game appearances, that I had no reason to disbelieve him on the rare occasions when he reminisced," Belford III says when asked about the inconsistencies. "All I can do is speculate. Maybe he made up a few stories in order to hide from me the fact that he never played. Maybe he did play a bit, but there was an unwritten rule among sports journalists not to mention a black player."
Finally, the younger Lawson wonders why his father never took him to a game at Michigan Stadium.
"It was such a mystery to me. Here's a guy who played varsity football for the University of Michigan on the national championship team and didn't want to take his son, also a star football player, to Michigan to see a game? That heightened my curiosity. I could never understand that."
Raising their son in Washington, D.C., in the 1950s and 1960s, his mother and father had sent him mostly to private prep schools.
"They didn't want me in a segregated environment," he says. "They wanted me to go to Groton. They wanted me to go to Harvard. They didn't want me to have to go through anything of what they did.
"So maybe the idea of taking me back to Michigan was associated in the minds of my father's generation with: 'He might find out something about what it was like to live under extreme segregation.' He might have thought that if I started to find out information about the twenties and how black students lived and where they lived and where they ate, it might be traumatic. And it wouldn't have been just preventing me from finding out about the harshness of life in segregation, but preventing me from finding out about the emotional difficulty of enduring the ambiguity."
With his father gone, Belford Lawson III can only wonder about those long-ago seasons. What seems most likely is that his father--unquestionably a highly accomplished man in every other part of his life--did what countless fathers have done before and since: he told his son a few tall tales of past athletic glory then dodged a situation in which he might have been forced to admit that those few stories were more fiction than fact.
But even if that is so, Belford Lawson Jr. was not quite the same as the average father making up stories to impress a son. He was making up stories about what really might have been, had it not been for the racism of his time and place. Perhaps, as he told his son those tales, he was for a few moments escaping the necessity, as his son put it, of "enduring the ambiguity" of being accepted yet not accepted, good enough yet not good enough.

What is a Pink Slip Inspection?
For over five-year-old vehicle a pink slip inspection is required if you're traveling in NSW - New South Wales. Pink slip inspection includes checking tires of your vehicle, lights, brakes, wipers, airbags, seat belt and many more. This safety inspection is required by the RMS that your vehicle is safe to drive in Australian roads. If your vehicle fails the inspection, you get 14 days to fix and repair it back to issue the pink slip at no extra charges.
Some of you also know pink slip as an ASCIS (Authorised Safety Check Inspection Scheme) Inspection Report. It is highly recommended in preparation of Pink slip inspection that all compliance plates and identifying numbers are easily visible. If the inspector won't clearly see the plates or numbers because of the grease, oil, dirt, mounts, etc. For that, the inspector changes you extra, so before going clean and confirm these numbers.
What is a Blue Slip Inspection?
Blue slip or AUVIS (Authorised Unregistered Vehicle Inspection Scheme) Inspection Report required for if the vehicle registration expired more than three months ago. Also, when you transferring your registration from another state, written off vehicle checks, needing adjustment of records or for clearance of design based defects. For a blue slip, you need to inspect all vehicle safety, design check and identity check of your vehicle. It includes checking of lights of your vehicle, brakes, oil leaks, seat belts, suspension and confirmation of engine numbers and VIN/ Chassis number. In case, if your vehicle fails the inspection, you get 42 days to fix and repair it back to issue the pink slip at no additional charges.
Unlike Pink slip inspection, blue slip inspection requires the inspection of all compliance plates and identifying numbers. So before taking your vehicle for inspection make sure that you clean and confirm these numbers to prevent from extra charges.
Pink slip is a road-worthiness or it is a safety inspection report for registered vehicle in NSW while Blue slip is a full inspection report of your vehicle.
Pink slip is required for all vehicle that is more than five years old and blue slip is required if you are selling the car without registration or your rego has been expired for more than 3 months.
There is one thing which is common in a pink slip and blue slip. If you don't pass your pink slip or blue slip your car is deemed un-registered. If your vehicle is a pink slip or blue slip unregistered vehicle carefully drive your vehicle whenever you drive it to and from inspection center and home or to a specialist repairer. If you are caught driving a pink slip or blue slip unregistered vehicle you need to play a large amount of fine and it can create trouble in your registration process.

Restoration of coronary flow in myocardial infarction by intravenous chimeric 7E3 antibody without exogenous plasminogen activators: Observations in animals and humans
Herman K. Gold, Harry D. Garabedian, Robert E. Dinsmore, Luis J. Guerrero, Joaquin E. Cigarroa, Igor F. Palacios, Robert C. Leinbach
Background: Coronary thrombus is composed of platelets and fibrin, and during thrombolytic treatment, reflow may be slowed by platelet deposition. It may be possible to initiate coronary reflow without exogenous plasminogen activators by blocking platelet aggregation while fibrin generation is impeded with heparin. Methods and Results: In 14 dogs, left anterior descending coronary artery thrombosis was produced by endothelial trauma and thrombin instillation in the presence of stenosis distally. Reflow was monitored by flow probe during treatment with (1) heparin, (2) heparin and aspirin, and (3) heparin, aspirin, and intravenous 7e3. Eighty percent of dogs treated with the third combination showed stable reflow (≤ 25% of prestenotic flow) in 50 ±9 minutes. In addition, 13 patients were studied during intravenous administration of c7E3 10 minutes before primary angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction and Thrombolysis In myocardial Infarction (TIMI) grade 0 or 1 flow. Pretreatment included heparin and oral aspirin. Flow increased during a 10-minute period by at least one TIMI grade in 11 (85%) of 13 and reached TIMI grade 2 or 3 in 7 (54%) of 13 patients. Average TIMI grade flow increased from 0.31 ± 0.5 to 1.54±0.8 (P<.001). Thrombus length 10 minutes after c7e3 was 5.1±3.5 mm. All but 1 patient then underwent angioplasty. There were no complications. Conclusions: Coronary reflow can be initiated by intravenous 7E3 administration in 'the presence of heparin and aspirin. In human patients, this flow can be observed in 10 minutes without exogenous thrombolytic agents.

NTSB investigating fatal Corona helicopter explosion
CORONA, Calif.
FAA officials have confirmed a pilot has died after a four-seat Robinson R-44 helicopter exploded into flames near the fuel pumps at the Corona Municipal Airport around 11 p.m. Sunday.
Investigators said a blade from the chopper may have struck the canopy above the refuelling pumps and caused the accident.
"We have two ear witnesses," said Howard Plagens, a NTSB Air Safety Investigator. "They heard the roller blades and motor turning and all of a sudden they heard it stop. They heard a bang and then they heard the explosion. "
Investigators with the NTSB said a rotor from the chopper flew off and caused damage to a hanger about a hundred yards away. However, they are still trying to determine the exact cause of the accident.
"We really don't know much," said Plagens. "We don't know if he was trying to get fuel, if he was coming to just go into a parking area, if he was stationary and just went up, we just don't know at this point."
Investigators are trying to obtain surveillance video from cameras on top of a nearby hanger to hopefully shed some light on exactly what led to the accident.
Pilots and aviation enthusiasts at the small airport came out to survey the scene.
Although the identity of the pilot has not been released pending notification of kin, many say they are all family and accidents like this one are a grim reminder of the risks in aviation.
Aircraft owner Kurt Norton says he always thinks about the level of risk associated with flying activity.
"You feel for the family" said Norton. "You pray that you know they're able to accept the loss. It is a dangerous endeavor. It is a serious endeavour and there is loss of life."
According to the Corona Municipal Airport's website, the airport operates from dawn to dusk and is strictly a recreational airport with no commercials flights.
Investigators say at the time of the accident the area was very dark but plan on continuing their investigation and will be looking into all factors that may have played a part in the deadly fiery explosion.
