ASHG 50: the Unauthorized Preview
Did someone forget to tell the American Society for Human Genetics that the genome was sequenced this year? At the society's annual convention, October 3-7 in Philadelphia, a mere 6 percent ¯ only 140 out of the total 2,451 ¯ papers come under the topic "genomics." Last year 152 genomics papers were delivered. In the year of the Big Announcement is the world's premiere genetics meeting going to snub the genome?
Not completely. Doug Marchuk chair of the conference program committee says it might be a small fraction of the overall program, but genomics will be given a high profile this year. Francis Collins, head of NIH's National Human Genome Research Institute, and Richard Gibbs of the Baylor College of Medicine will chair a session contemplating the completion of the human genome. Several other invited sessions and workshops will address genomics too. (See next page.)
Gibbs, who helped Marchuk select genomics papers for the meeting, admits that genomics and genetics are becoming less discernible from each other. "It was quite a struggle to position certain abstracts," Gibbs says. "As we see genetics being influenced by genomics, we see things being done differently." But in years past, Marchuk says genomics sessions have been well attended. "When the SAGE technique first came out, that room was packed," he recalls. "We realize that so much of genetics is driven by these technologies."
ASHG's exhibit floor makes that clear. There, 15 percent of exhibitors are genomics or genome technology companies. And with the exception of Chemdex's six-booth exhibit, genome technology companies are taking up more booth space than anyone else. Consider: Celera Genomics booked the space of three booths, as did Transgenomic. Affymetrix, DoubleTwist, Genomica, the Human Genome Organization, and Incyte Genomics will each host double-booths. And the two major providers of genome sequencing instruments, Amersham Pharmacia Biotech and Applied Biosystems, each booked four booths. Clearly, genomics companies have more money to burn.
Therein might lay a clue about why genomics doesn't get more attention in the lecture halls. Genomics these days, not genetics, is getting all the money and the glory.
A leading genomics researcher who says he has attended ASHG's meeting for many years says of its organizers, "They don't like genomics. They're a bunch of doddering old genetics types. Genomics is struggling to be heard."
The scientist, who, for obvious reasons, begs not to be named, says the genomics vs. genetics battle is one of egos, money, and resources. "If you're not getting money to do clinical genetics but you see $250 million going to the National Human Genome Research Institute, well."
ASHG's puritanism might be another reason big-money genomics is kept at bay. Marsha Ryan, the society's senior meetings and exhibits manager says, "Our board of directors doesn't want any possibility that the meeting smacks of commercialism."
Indeed ASHG goes a long way to maintain an academic atmosphere: regulations explicitly prohibit "magicians, fortune tellers, dancers, puppets, or other entertainment of this nature" in exhibit booths. Contests, lotteries, raffles or games of chance aren't allowed either. And booth attendants are instructed to attire themselves "in a manner consistent with the intent of the meeting." Ryan, who said up to 5,000 attendees are expected at the meeting this year, added that exhibitors are barred from holding events or promotions outside of the exhibit hall.
With this in mind, but in adherence with the rule that prohibits us from "publicizing any extracurricular activities, inducements, demonstrations, or displays away from the exhibit area during the exhibit hours or scientific session hours of the meeting," Genome Technology offers some options for your evening entertainment in Philadelphia this week. We also offer a hit list so you can make it to the few but proud genomic sessions of the week.

Kacy Hill – "Foreign Fields" (Video)
blame it on Illy August 25, 2015
Since arriving on the scene last year with her debut track "Experience," we haven't heard much from Kacy Hill who had reportedly signed a deal with G.O.O.D. Music. She's back with her debut visual for a new track titled, "Foreign Fields."
Kacy spoke to Hunger TV about the track and how the video came about:
Talk us through the story behind "Foreign Fields" as a track?
Jack Garratt and I were put in the studio together and "Foreign Fields" was a result. There wasn't any pressure, we got along really well and churned this track out in a few hours. Lyrically, it's about finding people in your life that help you progress and move you forward.
And the video, how did you find collaborating with Rankin?
Rankin was an incredible collaborator. His entire team is so meticulous and he makes it so easy to be in front of the camera. I'm thankful that we were able to bring a vision to life.
Watch the Rankin-directed video above.

Cyber Security Today, Sept. 24, 2021 – A new hacking group discovered, another COVID text scam found, ransomware advice and more
A new hacking group discovered, another COVID text scam found, ransomware advice and more.
Welcome to Cyber Security Today. It's Friday September 24th. I'm Howard Solomon, contributing writer on cybersecurity for ITWorldCanada.com.
A new threat group has been found whose recent favourite weapon is exploiting holes in unpatched installations of Microsoft Exchange. The discovery was made by security firm ESET, which said the group is leveraging the ProxyLogon vulnerabilities revealed earlier this year. Other software exploited includes Microsoft SharePoint and Oracle Opera suite for running hotels. ESET has nicknamed the group FamousSparrow. It says the group's targets are largely hotels, but also include governments, law firms and companies in the U.S., Canada and other countries. ESET thinks this group has been quietly operating since 2019. Because targets include governments the suspicion is the group's goal is espionage. Best protection includes making sure all of your organization's applications are patched.
Speaking of patching, if your organization runs VMware's vCentre server management suite make sure its got the latest security update. VMware issued a warning this week about a new vulnerability.
Attention Android device users in Canada and the U.S.: Scammers are sending COVID-19 related text messages trying to trick you into clicking on malicious attachments. The messages may pretend to be about pandemic regulations or a vaccine appointment. If a victim clicks on the link a notice pops up saying their Adobe Flash Player is out of date and needs updating. Clicking on that downloads the malware. According to security company Cloudmark, the malware vacuums up users' contacts and call logs, steals passwords and takes over the device's camera and microphone. Think carefully before clicking on links in text messages and emails, even if they appear to come from someone you know. After all, their device might have been hacked, which is how they got your address.
The U.S. government has again urged the private sector not to give into the financial demands of ransomware or extortion gangs. In an updated advisory this week the Treasury Department reminded organizations that some cyber criminal groups are under government sanction. Sending money to groups or persons on the blocked list is prohibited and could result in fines. Payments may also be forbidden under certain American regulatory laws. In fact this week the Suex virtual currency exchange was added the sanctions list for facilitating cryptocurrency transactions of ransomware gangs.
The advisory urges organizations to focus on improving their cybersecurity. Don't know where to start? The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has a ransomware guide. So does Canada's Centre for Cyber Security.
The Canadian government also says paying a ransom isn't recommended. It points out that paying doesn't guarantee access to your files will be restored. And even if it is your copied files may have been spread or sold anyway to other attackers.
Speaking of ransomware, this week the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency released a background paper for IT professionals on the workings of the Conti ransomware. It also includes advice on lowering the odds of your firm being victimized by ransomware. Number one is protecting logins with multifactor authentication. Number two is segmenting IT networks to make it harder for ransomware to spread. Number three is keeping all operating systems and software fully patched. There's more advice as well.
Finally, later today the Week in Review edition will be online. A guest and I will talk about the expanding number of distributed denial of service attacks, the FBI allegedly withholding a ransomware description key and users misconfiguring a platform for building online events.
Remember links to details about podcast stories are in the text version at ITWorldCanada.com. That's where you'll also find other stories of mine.

Pensioner taken ill in Athens after being bitten by mosquito
A pensioner was being treated for meningitis in an Athens hospital over the weekend after contracting West Nile virus, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (KEELPNO) said Sunday.
It is the first known case of the disease in Greece this summer. The 70-year-old woman is thought to have been bitten by a mosquito carrying the virus while at her home in Palaio Faliro, southern Athens. KEELPNO said blood donations from people in the area would stop for the next month even though this part of Athens is not though to be a high risk area for the virus. For this reason, authorities have been not been spraying chemicals to ward off mosquitoes in Palaio Faliro.
The West Nile virus, which can cause encephalitis, was discovered in 1937 in Uganda. Sporadic cases of the disease in humans have occurred in Europe since the 1960s. It was first detected in Greece in 2010, when 262 people contracted the disease, 35 of whom died.

Q: Moving from Fedora to CentOS, what should I keep in mind? I am moving to CentOS from Fedora, I know they have a common base but I need to know if there are any differences in directory structure or configuration files.

A: If you are going to CentOS 6 they should be pretty close. The biggest thing I would keep in mind is to use the EPEL repository. Fedora packages a lot more recent software then CentOS does, so moving to CentOS 6 you will want to add it in to be able to install some of the needed applications:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL

A: I would also recommend adding RPMForge as a means to acquire packages that may not be available in the standard CentOS distribution or the Fedora EPEL repository.
Also see: http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/RPMForge
I typically find everything I need in RPMForge, but will cherry-pick certain packages from EPEL when necessary.

A: I would use either EPEL or RPMForge but not both. If you do use both, you will run into incompatibilities and it you try to get around them you will fubar your system.

Q: Como realizar um auto-update em um sistema web local? Fala galera, blz?
Desenvolvi um sistema web (em CodeIgniter) para um cliente e o mesmo roda numa máquina local dentro do seu escritório. Sempre que preciso atualizar o sistema, eu realizo os seguintes passos:

*

*Acesso a máquina servidor via TeamViewer;

*Abro o CMDER;

*Acesso a minha conta no Bitbucket para dar um git pull;

*Executo as migrações necessárias;

Pensando nesses sistemas desktops que buscam uma nova versão de forma automática e se atualizão, é possível fazer uma rotina nesse sistema web para realizar a mesma coisa? Buscar no Bitbucket (ou outro servidor web) uma nova versão e em seguida fazer o update?
Agradeço as sugestões.

A: Uma forma bem simples é:
Armazenando o seu login do repositório no servidor:
cd c:\seu_repositorio\
git config credential.helper cache

Esse comando fará cache das suas credenciais na próxima vez que fizer um pull/push.
Uma vez feito o cache, não será mais solicitado usuário e senha
Dessa forma você poderá criar uma tarefa agendada no windows, que executa um arquivo php automaticamente, que pode conter um código para executar um simples git pull ou você também pode fazer outras validações no código, por exemplo:

*

*Checar o código md5 de algum arquivo, se mudou desde a última versão, aí você atualiza faz o pull do repositório git, senão não faz nada.

*Nesse código PHP, você também pode executar outras ações como alguma atualização de banco de dados, exclusão de arquivos antigos, limpeza de logs, etc...

*Da mesma forma que você pode fazer o controle pelo repositório GIT, você poderia disponibilizar um pacote zipado em uma hospedagem e ficar baixando os arquivos dessa hospedagem, fazendo o controle dentro do arquivo php também.


Valerian is a perennial flowering plant that has many uses. Among the many, its use as a perfume is the most significant, right from the sixteenth century. It has been used in Greece and Rome, since ancient times. Let us know more on the root of this plant in the following.
Valerian plant has sweetly scented white or pink flowers. Although native to Europe and some parts of Asia, it has now also been introduced in North America. The flowers of the this plant bloom from June to September in the northern hemisphere. The larvae of some species of butterfly and moths consume it as food. Valerian plant has many names, among them are all-heal, garden heliotrope, garden Valerian. The word Valerian in Latin means "to be strong or healthy". Now let's see what are the uses of this root.
Valerian root is distilled to make oils and ointments or is dried to use in tea or capsules. It is available in the form of capsules, tablets, tinctures and liquid extracts. These roots were used in ancient Greece to treat a variety of medical disorders, like liver problems, digestive ailments, insomnia, urinary tract disorders and nausea. It has been used to treat problems with the nervous system as well. Traditionally it has also been used to treat epilepsy and hysteria and is also used as a diuretic.
Research has shown that Valerian root helps in relaxing the central nervous system. It induces peaceful sleep without any grogginess in the morning. It is safe if taken in small quantities with alcohol, but it is not recommended though. It is also known to reduce stress and exhaustion. It is beneficial to treat conditions like depression, irritability, hysteria, anxiety, fear, panic, and delusions, as it is a mild tranquilizer. If a person suffers from stomach cramps or indigestion due to nervousness, these roots can prove to be beneficial. Among many other benefits of Valerian roots, it is useful to treat behavioral problems in adults as well as children. It was especially found to be beneficial to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), bed-wetting, and anxiety headaches. In some cases, this root was also used to treat nail biting and thumb sucking in children. It has been observed that it also has a stabilizing effect on blood pressure. In rare cases, it has also been used to treat the convulsions from seizures. Migraine symptoms can also be treated with Valerian root.
Along with the above mentioned benefits, it is also helpful in alleviating digestive system problems, including irritable bowel syndrome. Gas, diarrhea, and pain related to ulcers can be treated with Valerian roots. Consumption of this root also helps in relieving stomach cramps. Asthma patients also have benefited from it as it reduces the discomfort caused by asthma attack.
Valerian root is a cat attractant, like catnip. This is due to an active compound called actinidine. According to anecdotes, it is also attractive to rats, therefore it has also been used in 'eat baits'. In some versions of the 'Pied Piper of Hamelin'. It is believed that he used Valerian on himself as well as his pipes to attract the rats.
There are some side effects of this wonder plant though. Some side effects were seen in pregnant and lactating women. Children should also not be given Valerian root. Since it is broken down in the liver, in rare cases, it can cause liver damage. Hence, it is always recommended to speak to your health care professional before using it. If you are on any medication, always consult your doctor and know if there are any possible reactions, if coupled with Valerian root. It is also advised that, this root should not be used everyday. There are many brands that manufacture Valerian root products. Therefore, always consult your pharmacist, to check for any contents that may have side effects.

UKZN Academic Conducts Medical Law and Ethics Workshop in Ghana
Home » News » UKZN Academic Conducts Medical Law and Ethics Workshop in Ghana
Professor David McQuoid-Mason from the UKZN Centre for Socio-Legal Studies recently conducted a Medical Law and Ethics workshop for Ghanaian health professionals.
Organised by the Ghana Institute of Advanced Legal Studies (GIALS), the meeting held in Accra was attended by Ghanaian medical practitioners, health administrators, academics and policy makers. An affiliate of the London Institute of Advanced Legal Studies, GIALS is a legal scholarship and research-orientated independent institution and the second of its kind in Africa aimed at leading legal research in Ghana and Africa.
McQuoid-Mason used discussions of decided cases and presentations to expose participants to typical examples of medico-legal issues relating to the legal and ethical liability of medical professionals. He pointed out that medical malpractice and professional negligence may result in criminal and civil liability as well as disciplinary action by the Medical and Dental Council of Ghana. 'While very few cases have been decided against medical practitioners in the country, an increasing number are being brought against hospitals because of negligence or malpractice by their administrators and nurses,' he said.
Retired Supreme Court Judge and GIALS Advisory Council member, Justice Samuel Date-Bah, who attended the workshop said, 'Medicine and the law are a battle area and we need to bring the rule of law into that area. In Ghana, it is said that health professionals never testify against themselves and therefore there is a real hurdle to litigation of medical malpractice. It is important that health professionals should put the public interest first. On the other hand, we do not want to go the other way such as in America where doctors may fear to touch patients for fear of malpractice. There has to be middle ground somewhere,' said Date-Bah.
The organiser of the workshop, Mr Victor Chimbwanda, who is the Policy Dialogue and Projects Co-ordinator at GIALS, confirmed that the Institute would further engage with medical organisations in Ghana to offer future training programmes relevant to medical and health professionals in the country to increase awareness of medico-legal issues, ethics and health law in general. McQuoid-Mason would assist the Institute in these endeavours.
'The Ghanaian doctors participated very enthusiastically helping me learn a lot about important medico-legal issues in the country. I really enjoyed interacting with them and sharing the importance of following bioethical principals in their daily practice. If they do this, they will be acting in accordance with the Ghanaian Constitution, Statute Law and the Common Law. I look forward to coming back and doing something similar for nurses,' he said.
After the workshop several participants inquired about how they could enroll for the UKZN LLM programme in Medical Law.

Frameline celebrates 32 years with daring lineup
Jun. 12, 2008 12:00 a.m.
A gay Egyptian attempts to live outside of the closet, women behind bars go gothic and a teen boldly comes to terms with love and gender identity in Argentina.
It's all part of this year's Frameline, which opens June 19. But by the time the last curtain falls on The City's 32nd annual International LGBT Film Festival, it may be remembered for delivering the most daring offerings to date.
Part of that has to do with diversity. After screening more than 400 films, festival coordinators whittled down this year's celluloid crop to nearly 250 entries. What audiences get are eight world premieres, a slew of first-time directors from around the globe and the talents of 46 local filmmakers.
"We want to have a place for every kind of voice and segment of the community," says Michael Lumpkin, Frameline's artistic director. "And we don't shy away from featuring films that are controversial or may not have a large audience."
At the top of the locals list may be "2nd Verse: The Rebirth of Poetry," directed by Carl Brown, screening at 6 p.m. June 20 at the Roxie. The surprisingly upbeat documentary chronicles the rise in popularity of poetry and spoken word for Bay Area teens. Another standout is "The Kinsey Sicks: Almost Infamous," a documentary screening at 6 p.m., June 28 at the Castro Theatre, revolving around the popular Bay Area drag foursome.
The festival's opening-night film "Affinity" is based on the Sarah Waters novel, which finds one upper-class woman coming emotionally undone behind bars. It screens at 7 p.m., June 19 at the Castro Theatre.
Frameline's centerpiece offering, "XXY," which screens June 24 at the Castro Theatre, is a mindbending work from Argentina directed by first-time filmmaker Lucia Puenzo. The story revolves around a 15-year-old intersex teen who falls for the teenage son of the plastic surgeon overseeing her final gender decision.
"It's one of the best films I've seen in years," Lumpkin says. "I think it raises a lot of important questions and issues for our community in terms of gender."
The list of must-sees rolls on, but take note of the following:
"Pageant" — The Bay Area's Alina Malletti is one of a gaggle of drag performers vying for the Miss Gay America crown. [9:30 p.m., June 26 at the Victoria Theatre]
<p>"Tru Loved" — Heartwarming fare, loaded with celebrity cameos, which finds a straight teen, with two sets of gay parents, who forms a Gay Straight Alliance at her high school. [4 p.m., June 21; and noon, June 25 at the Castro Theatre]
"Sordid Lives: The Television Series" — It hits Logo this summer, but the wildly inventive series starring Leslie Jordan, Olivia Newton-John and others gets a sneak peek here. [1:15 p.m., June 28 at the Castro Theatre]
"All My Life" — a vivid depiction, both emotionally and visually, of homosexual life in Egypt. [8:30 p.m., June 22 at the Valencia]
Meanwhile, the screen fades to black on a Frameline legend, Lumpkin, who leaves his post this year after overseeing 25 festivals.
"I am most proud of how much ownership our community has of Frameline," Lumpkin says. "When your community thinks of the event as 'their' film festival, you know that you have succeeded."

Architectural salvage is a picker's paradise
July 5, 2019 /in Be Smart /by Tom Hoepf

NEW YORK – Making what is old new again is one of the simple pleasures of recycling antiques and vintage goods. The act of taking things destined for landfills and giving them a new look or imbuing them with a new purpose is sometimes called upcycling. Decorating with architectural salvage is one of interior decorating's most popular trends and has been going strong since the early 1980s. It is also something that many people can feel good about as going green and reusing items instead of buying new is good for the environment, keeping goods out of landfills and reducing demand for new items.
"Incorporating architectural salvage into design is a wonderful homage to the past. It creates a story and adds texture in your home," says Kristin Crump, owner of Foxtrot Home in Ridgefield, Conn., who routinely salvages old architectural pieces and furniture for herself and in her business. "I've made corbels into bookends for myself and clients. I take remnant tile and create decoupage coasters and trivets. I also love to decorate with old windows, taking salvage antique leaded glass windows to create wall art. The craftsmanship that goes into homes and furnishings built over a hundred years ago is exquisite and tells a story."

Besides roadside finds, tag sales and dumpster-diving (the latter we don't recommend), there are many outlets for finding architectural salvage. You can frequent flea and antiques markets; some of our fave big outdoor ones are Brimfield, Mass; Round Top, Texas; Madison Bouckville, N.Y.; and Alameda Point (Calif.) Antiques Faire. Salvage stores and auctions are also great sources for finding unique pieces. Popular examples of pieces that work well in decor include mantels, doors, windows and shutters, wrought iron, reclaimed flooring, fretwork, metalwork and finials.
Kamelot Auctions in Philadelphia is well known as a source for architectural antiques. Co-owner Joe Holahan began buying salvaged items about 15 years ago and soon incorporated them into the auction business. People today prefer lightweight items over heavy items, which can be expensive to move and install, he said. "They look for three-dimensional objects. Something that stands up on its own is much more salable than things that are flat and have to be sort of put up against a wall," he said. "When you get a 3-D object … I am staring at a copper finial we just sold, you can put it anywhere you want in your backyard or your house." Collectors today often look for old items but don't worry about the distinction between an antique object versus one that is vintage, he said. "People, in general, are not fixated on age today. They are not that concerned how old things are. It's more about the look and does it fit in and work for them," he said. "Mid-century modern architectural elements are just as salable if not more so than 19th century items."

Crump said there are millions of ways to work in architectural salvage into your home and just about any piece of salvage can become a one-of-a-kind artwork. "Windows become art and doors leaned up against a wall with great patina create a focal point in your room," she said, noting she found an antique pediment that came off a building slated for demolition. That piece is now a framing element atop her front door.
Going to a store and finding a striking piece of salvage that will be an accent piece in your home makes for a great shopping experience but becomes even better when said purchase can benefit the community. Fran Normann, executive director of Housatonic Habitat for Humanity in Danbury, Conn., which operates the Housatonic ReStore, explains ReStore outlets are a treasure trove of antiques and secondhand items, sold well below retail value. Inventory ranges from antiques to hammers to kitchen cabinets and there are about 900 ReStore locations nationwide. ReStore profits fund Habitat for Humanity chapters, allowing them to fulfill their mission of providing affordable housing in the communities they serve.

"Many big-name big-box stores are regular contributors and we are recycling almost new kitchen cabinets and counters from area homes. People shop to fill in their homes with budget-friendly furniture or to upgrade their gardens with pallets of pavers," Normann said, noting DIYers will also pick up interesting decorative pieces like salvage that they can refinish or repurpose into their home decor.
Holahan likens architectural salvage to art. "I've always said it's underpriced art. People are looking for unique pieces, something their next-door neighbor does not have or you can't find in your local big-box store," he said. "It's cheap art. You can buy a really cool architectural element for $1,000 or less, but walking into a paintings gallery to find something for $1,000 or less it's not necessarily the easiest thing to do."

So if you share a fondness for rough-around-the-edges pieces in need of some TLC or pieces that wear their history on their sleeve and have character, definitely make architectural salvage part of your home. When looking, however, keep size in mind. You'll need to think about what room a piece will go and how it will fit so the item does not overpower a room. Smaller pieces can go most anywhere but larger pieces, while striking, may limit your placement options. Holahan said pieces that came from notable families, especially wealthy ones like the Rockefellers, tend to inspire buyer excitement. "It's part of history and often times it came off a famous building. People love to buy things that were owned by multimillionaires," he said.
Above all else, buy what speaks to you. "Vintage salvage, furnishings and decor tend to always be very nostalgic," Crump said. "Remembering simpler times can also add a sense of calm and tranquility to your space."

IRIS is a digital healthcare ecosystem, built using Blockchain technology. Existing electronic healthcare records do not allow patient data to be shared between healthcare providers – resulting in siloed patient records and compromised quality of care. The Iris Electronic Healthcare Record (or "Iris EHR") stores data on the Blockchain, facilitating universal access and a single true source of data. The Iris EHR gives you back control of your healthcare data and lets you decide who, when and where your data is being accessed.
Blockchain technology is revolutionizing the way we process, distribute, and engage with data, and IRIS is at the forefront of bringing Blockchain to the world of healthcare. The Iris EHR is unalterable, secure and decentralized, increasing security and significantly reducing the risk of data theft or manipulation.
LimeChain acts as both Blockchain consultation and development partner for IRIS. We developed the architecture of the MVP.

Just For Fans Review
April 19, 2022 November 17, 2020 by Mike Morris
Looking to buy amateur adult content?
Maybe you want to sell your own?
JustFor.Fans is a new platform for adult performers to connect directly with their fans.
Similar to services like OnlyFans, models post content to a secure feed which can only be accessed by paying subscribers.
In return for their fee, followers get exclusive videos and photos as well as being able to communicate directly with models.
In this Just For Fans review, we take a closer look at one of the latest platforms for amateur models, and one of the hottest new marketplaces for buying amateur content.
What is JustFor.Fans?
Just For Fans is an adult blogging platform and marketplace where adult entertainers can connect directly with their fans.
It's like a hybrid of YouTube, Facebook and eBay but where most of the content is NSFW and you have to pay to subscribe to the people you want to follow.
This is one of many new ways to make money from adult content.
While there is a lot of free content on JFF, with previews available, the vast majority is premium and behind a pay wall.
JustFor.Fans is open for all kinds of adult models including escorts, strippers, porn stars and live cam performers, as well as amateurs looking to make some extra cash by selling nude pics and naughty clips.
The service is also used by studios and photographers to showcase their work.
Models can be male or female, gay or straight, LGBTQ and non-binary.
It really is a diverse melting pot of people operating in lots of different genres.
This is a great service for fans of adult performers who want to be able to connect directly and receive exclusive content first.
Fans can message and trade photos and videos directly with their favorite models as well as discovering new people to follow.
How Does Just For Fans Work?
At the time of our review the site had over 5,000 models and 70+ studio/photographers listed on the platform.
Of these, more than 75% appear to be male and/or gay in content.
With this in mind, the service does seem to be aimed more at gay men but that shouldn't deter anyone else from considering what is on offer here.
There are almost 1,000 women offering exclusive adult content.
Free Content on JFF
The JustFor.Fans main feeds feature a lot of free content including photos, videos and other NSFW posts as well as access to Free Channels (like YouTube).
Some of the featured models also offer free previews of their channels to tempt users to subscribe to their profiles.
Initially, your feed will come stuffed full of all kinds of models and performers but you can fully customize the content that you see by selecting the gender of performers in your 'Settings'.
This includes options besides simply 'Male' or 'Female' but also MTF and FTM transmen/women and non-binary models.
If you know the details of the performer you want to follow then you can simply add them using their Model ID, or you can just use the 'Explore' function to find channels and models that you want to follow by genre.
This includes categories such as:
The platform is full of features which can make your experience even better including a couple of nice little additions such as :
FOMO – If you have stopped following a model and unsubscribed from their feed, you can see here just what you are missing out on with details of any posts they have made since you left their service.
Store – From here models can sell lots of different content and services from discounted Skype sessions and custom DVDs to toys, clothing to Snapchat and Instagram access.
There's also a nice little tie-in that the site does for those models who have a Twitter account and you can link to their social media accounts using KeepFollowing.Me.
This means if their Twitter account is shut down (for whatever reason) then you will still be able to follow them when they open a new account.
How Much Does Just For Fans Cost?
As an audience member, signing up on JustFor.Fans is totally free and you are not obliged to subscribe to any feeds.
Instead you can take advantage of the free content that is regularly updated.
However, the best material is kept behind the locked profiles of these performers.
Each performer profile offers subscription prices based on their own popularity and can range from as little as a few dollars a month to $50+.
Most models offer multi-month discounts which means if you sign up front for a longer period, you make some savings.
The average price for a subscription to a service on the site seems to be around the $10-$15 per month mark.
Currently, each transaction you make on the account also attracts a service fee of $0.75.
This is paid to Just For Fans and covers their administration costs.
JFF is also an early adopter of SpankPay, a crypto-payment system designed specifically for the adult industry.
How Much Money Can You Make On Just For Fans?
If you are a model then you can set up your own account just as quickly and easily and start posting content for your subscribers.
Models get to set their own subscription rates but should bear in mind that they only get to keep 70% of their income; the remainder is paid as a commission to JFF.
Just For Fans Review: Is It Any Good?
Many people like to compare Just For Fans vs OnlyFans, but is it a fair comparison?
For trans (MTF and FTM) and gay men, JustFor.Fans is an absolute MUST visit site for both fans and performers.
It is quickly becoming the go-to platform for models in this category.
However, this should not detract at all from the appeal it has for more 'mainstream' communities.
There are almost 1,000 women on the site each offering specialist and exclusive feeds of adult content, many of which are available for less than $15 per month.
Every model is different but many are publishing daily photos and videos that are not available anywhere else and regular fans who engage with their favorite models can receive personal communication and information direct to their inbox.
Just like Fan Centro, OnlyFans, ManyVids, AVN Stars and other platforms, JustFor.Fans offers a great service for diversifying your sales.
That could be clips, photos and social media content, as well as selling private shows through Skype or other media channels.
As for whether Just For Fans offers anything over and above these other sites; the answer (for us) is not really.
Sure, it's an easy enough site to navigate and content is arranged well so you can browse channels by genre.
And yes, there are some great ways to store the media you purchase and catch up on those models you follow.
However, the interface is a little slow at times and browsing around can be a little sluggish.
What we do like is the sexting feature where models share their contact details and you can contact them directly for some saucy chat and some nude pics/vids.
And finally, where JustFor.Fans actually does have the edge over some of the competition is the fact that the range of models is more diverse.
If you are someone who gets a bit tired of the same kinds of models appearing on these platforms then you should be pleased with the choice offered here.
Like your adult performers to be non-binary?
Prefer some alt-porn amateur stars?
What about kinks and fetishes?
Well here you should be able to find something to float your boat.
And, if you want personal pics and clips from gay men, then this is certainly the option for you.
So, if you are still undecided about whether it's worth subscribing to any of these models we'd recommend finding some of those feeds that offer free trials.
You will have to enter your credit card to do so, but it will give you the opportunity to try before you buy.
Sign up on Just For Fans to get started.

One of three sea nymphs, -- or, according to some writers, of two, -- said to frequent an island near the coast of Italy, and to sing with such sweetness that they lured mariners to destruction. The revenue cutter Acushnet called to the assistance of the coasting steamer Nantucket, aground near Newport. Captain Martin Bayerle located the Republic in 1981. The Furnessia goes in search of the Republic, leaving the Florida. CERTIFYING AND GRADING OF FAMED SS Republic COINS BY NGC. Like Titanic, she met a similar fate at the bottom of the ocean. The SS Republic, a Royal Mail Ship (qualified to carry both the British and U.S. mails, hence her "RMS Republic" designation), one of the largest and most luxurious passenger liners of her era, flagship of the White Star Line steamship company's Boston-European Service and one of that line's most prized vessels, departed New York at 3 p.m., Friday, January 22, 1909, outbound to Mediterranean ports.

Suicidal Tendencies Announces Converse Footwear and Apparel + Reveals New Track
August 30, 2018 August 30, 2018 - by Morg
New album out September 7th
Heavy music legends SUICIDAL TENDENCIES recently announced the upcoming release of their latest album, STill Cyco Punk After All These Years, out September 7, 2018. STill Cyco Punk After All These Years is a re-recording and re-imagining of a Cyco Miko (Mike Muir) solo album recorded in 1995, originally entitled Lost my Brain! (Once Again). The album is an auditory time capsule – afull-on Cyco Punk record taken to a whole new level – featuring legendary drummer Dave Lombardo brutally beating the songs and sound that is made to get your slam on.
In conjunction with the release, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES have revealed details about their upcoming Converse collaboration. The new Converse x Suicidal Tendencies collection will be available the same date as the new album, September 7, via Converse.com and select retailers. To celebrate, in Converse's hometown of Boston, the collection will be available at Bodega Boston, in a pop-up on September 6 from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM and on September 7 from 11:00 AM to 8:00 AM, before the SUICIDAL TENDENCIES show at the House of Blues in Boston.
Vocalist Mike Muir's relationship with Converse started long before SUICIDAL TENDENCIES. "When I was young, I still remember getting my first pair of 'Chucks' for my birthday and how stoked I was to wear them to school the next day," says Muir, reflecting on the iconic sneaker. "It was almost like a rite of passage, the beautiful thing about them is whatever 'direction' you were headed, you could go there with your Chucks.
Converse x Suicidal Tendencies is a collection of Chuck 70's and accompanying apparel based on digital and screen-printed graphics in the classic style of Ric Clayton, who designed posters and fliers for the band back in the '80s. The Chuck 70 HI's vintage canvas upper features an all-over digital print and the SUICIDAL TENDENCIES leather patch on the lateral side. An Ox version, comes in black with an all over digitally-printed lining. The SUICIDAL TENDENCIES logo is printed on the tongue and heel. Both the Hi and the Ox pair feature two sets of additional laces including a SUICIDAL TENDENCIES printed logo lace.
All apparel, which feature original, screen printed SUICIDAL TENDENCIES artwork, include a woven poplin shirt, two pull over hoodies, a pair of sweatpants, a pair of sweatshorts, one long sleeve tee, and two short sleeve tees.
The footwear will retail for a suggested retail price of $90-$95 USD. Apparel will retail for SRP of $35-$80 USD.
"All these years later, Converse has the same meaning to me," adds Mike Muir. "Just as young Mike will never forget putting on his first pair of Chucks, I can't wait to relive that amazing feeling with the new Converse x Suicidal Tendencies, a massively proud moment for the band, our fans and of course me personally!"
Listen to two re-imagined tracks from STill Cyco Punk After All These Years below:
"F.U.B.A.R.":
STill Cyco Punk After All These Years will be available in digital, CD, opaque purple vinyl (with download card) and opaque gold vinyl (with download card, patch and poster) formats.

Ars Aequi (afgekort tot AA) is een in 1951 voor het eerst verschenen, algemeen juridisch vakblad dat wordt uitgegeven door Stichting Ars Aequi en alle rechtsgebieden beslaat. Het maandblad bevat artikelen geschreven door gerenommeerde auteurs uit wetenschap en praktijk, maar biedt ook ruimte voor bijdragen van student-auteurs. De onderwerpen geven een brede doorsnede van het recht. Actuele en ingewikkelde leerstukken worden besproken, belangrijke arresten geannoteerd door hoogleraren en nieuwe wetgeving besproken door juristen van het ministerie van Justitie. De titel Ars Aequi is latijn en betekent "de kunst van het billijke". "Ars aequi" wordt meestal aangevuld met "et boni", de Nederlandse vertaling van het geheel luidt de "kunst van het billijke en het goede" en daarmee wordt het recht bedoeld.

Ars Aequi richt zich op het hoger onderwijs en de beroepspraktijk. Het hoger onderwijs gebruikt Ars Aequi intensief als basis voor colleges, tentamens en scripties. De rechtspraktijk gebruikt Ars Aequi en het driemaandelijkse Kwartaalsignaal, met daarin een overzicht van alle nieuwe wetgeving, vooral als naslagwerk. Op de website www.arsaequi.nl is onder andere het laatste juridische nieuws te lezen en kunnen abonnees het digitale archief raadplegen waar de laatste tien jaargangen vindbaar zijn. Ars Aequi-publicaties zijn met de eigen archiefcodes gemakkelijk te traceren. Deze code bestaat altijd uit AA, jaartal en paginanummer van publicatie, bijvoorbeeld AA20090155.

Redactie
De redactie van Ars Aequi bestaat uitsluitend uit (aio-)studenten van de Nederlandse rechtenfaculteiten. Ze is onafhankelijk en volledig verantwoordelijk voor de inhoud van het maandblad. Een hoofdredacteur verzorgt de coördinatie en productie van het maandblad.

Het Zwarte Nummer
In juni 1970 bracht Ars Aequi een nummer uit dat de advocatuur op zijn grondvesten deed schudden. De redactie vroeg zich af of de advocatuur nog wel voldeed aan de eisen van haar tijd. Met name op het gebied van rechtsbijstand liet de advocatuur destijds flinke steken vallen. Naar aanleiding van het zogenoemde 'Zwarte Nummer' kwam de laagdrempelige rechtshulp in opkomst, in de vorm van rechtswinkels en sociale advocaten. De overheid stelde Bureaus van Rechtshulp in om juridische hulp te verlenen aan de financieel zwakkeren.

How many times have we heard this story about our life's purpose ? Whether from the mouth of a loved one, or the pages of a self-help book, our western mythologies are based on novelty and individuation. On finding purpose, meaning and legacy. We are encouraged, beseeched to become ourselves, the call rooted in a hero's narrative of personal adventure.
THEN WHY IS IT THAT WE DON'T BELIEVE IT, DON'T ACT ?
Why is it that we spend hours a day engaged in the mental torture of self-criticism and sabotage? Why is it, that we sacrifice our dreams and give away our personal power time and again? Why is it we consistently choose to sacrifice our dreams ?
Perhaps, because we have forgotten how to listen.
It calls to you in moments of high emotion. It whispers when you lie awake at night, wondering why you aren't living the life you long for. It hides behind your daydreams and speaks to you in times of 'synchronicity' and 'coincidence'.
Listen and act from it's voice.
IF YOU DON'T PLAY YOUR MUSIC THEN WHO ELSE WILL?
Each day is a precious opportunity to live well.
To live life with purpose and power.
To be a creator instead of a victim.
To listen to the voice of your story that calls you ever forwards into new adventures and new territory.
Each day we have a choice to reconnect. To remember who we are and what we wish to create with our precious lifetime.
Brilliant wording and you understanding not just yourself but encompassing All!!
Forging ahead with the knowledge that is open to All .
I wish you joy in all that you do and share.
Thank you! It means a lot to me that these stories resonate and speak to a deep part of the human psyche! We are truly all connected in the stories we share!


I combined the 'english' feel with sentimental retro pieces including his grandfather's train set, my Sesame Street encyclopedias and his father's toy digger and of course an Oscar bed!
A wooden London bus that I bought for Oscar on my first work trip to London after returning from maternity leave was the inspiration for Oscar's room.
the london bus. I love that it has a story behind it.

Donald Kennedy McSween (born June 9, 1964) is an American former professional ice hockey player who played in the National Hockey League (NHL) for two clubs in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Playing career
A defenseman known for his adept puck-handling skills as well as his quick mobility, McSween, a two-time All American, was successful during his college career at Michigan State University, leading the team to the NCAA Division I Men's Ice Hockey National Championship in 1986.

He was quite successful while playing in the minor league. Following his impressive college career, McSween went on to play for the Buffalo Sabres (NHL). He was selected 84th in the 1983 NHL Draft, with a height of 5'11" a weight of 197 lb, and shooting left. After this stint, he played for the Rochester Americans (AHL), and the San Diego Gulls (IHL). In fact, McSween continues to hold American records for points scored by a defenseman in a career: 215 goals. In 1989–90 McSween was selected as an AHL First-Team All-Star. McSween also won myriad awards playing as a member of the Americans. He won five straight team Defensive Player of the Year awards (1987–92).

He also had a short but notable career as a player for the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. However, his chances of becoming a prominent National Hockey League player were severed after a serious arm injury in January 1995 at Winnipeg, when involved in a fight with another player, Keith Tkachuk. The tendons in McSween's left wrist were severely damaged after being severed by Tkachuk's skate. The nerve and tendon injury never fully healed, preventing him from being able to fully close his left hand, his shooting arm, effectively ending McSween's professional career. Ironically, McSween had severed the Achilles tendon of another promising player, Teemu Selänne, earlier in his career (Selänne would go on to make a full recovery, playing for 2 decades). After his injury McSween went on to play in the AHL (American Hockey League) for the Baltimore Bandits; in the IHL (International Hockey League) for the Grand Rapids Griffins and later Milwaukee Admirals; and in the UHL  (United Hockey League) for the Muskegon Fury.

Personal life
McSween lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan, working as an electrical engineer and a volunteer coach for local Youth Hockey Leagues. He is raising two boys and a daughter with his wife. As a youth, he played in the 1977 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with a minor ice hockey team from Detroit.
