Star Wars editorializing
I just watched a "preview" version of the Han Solo prequel. This is IMHO the best #StarWars film since Ep.7 (spoiled only by a certain prequel character turning up at the end for no good reason). #RogueOne didn't do anything to make me care about any of its cartoonish characters, and #TheLastJedi ... well ... almost nothing in the plot made sense and it suffered from some *major* prequelitis, but it was ... OK. If I can, I'll pay money to see #Solo on a big screen.
SlowRain @SlowRain@mastodon.social
@strypey
I seem to have enjoyed Rogue One more that you did.
@SlowRain it wasn't as bad as the prequels. That's about the best review I can come up with. Nothing (except for the digitally vandalized originals) is worse than the prequels. Even Ep. 8 looks good compared to that bloated mess. But come on, how many times did we have to see shots of that lookout guy on Yavin, and all the other tiresome #FanService? *yawn*
I actually like the prequels (with the exception of III) better than VII & VIII. I really don't like this new direction they're going with the main series. The anthologies, even the mediocre Solo, are more enjoyable for me.
How would you rate the Star Wars movies?
@SlowRain see the huge rants I've been posting here ;) The movie nerd in me likes the idea of the #MacheteOrder. I've proposed trying this to my brother (also a "genre film" obsessive) when we're next in the same city, using the despecialized originals (the specialized versions are as bad as the prequels because of all the added #prequalitis), and a truncated fan edit of 2-3.
http://www.nomachetejuggling.com/2015/12/28/machete-order-update-and-faq/
@SlowRain my personal spin on the Machete Order would add #Solo after Ep 6, and then Ep 7. Questions, 1) did you watch the original trilogy with or without the pre-prequel digital tack-ons ("specialized" or "unspecialized"), 2) if you first saw the prequels as a child, have you rewatched them as an adult?
I watched them all as they were released: original series, special edition, prequels, and now sequels & anthology.
I read a bit of that Machete Order thing, but discount it. It's release order for me.
As for ranking them, best to worst, here's mine:
2, Solo
Can I ask how you would rank the movies?
@SlowRain
9 (I live in hope, and it would be such a massive save by JJ!)
1 (despecialized)
7 / Solo/ 5 (despecialized)
R1 (had a lot of the narrative/ character fails of the prequels but at least got the aesthetic)
A prequels fan edit that cuts them down to one decent movie
Specialized versions of 1-2-3
What make Empire and R1 so much better for you than 4 and 6, and what didn't you like about 3?
Ep. 5 & Rogue One had more emphasis on character & there was more of an emotional connection. It's hard for a novel or movie to get a reaction out of me, so I appreciate it when one does. They also had more thought-out plots, even if Rogue One was a bit rushed.
Ep. 3 was utter tripe. Anakin's conversion to the dark side was thin (& poorly acted). The whole plot was just a collection of loose ends that needed to be tied up in a haphazard way.
@SlowRain agree about 5 too, but I have to say I find it hard to understand how you can describe #R1 this way. For me, R1 had the broad strokes of a solid plot, but totally failed to take the time required for characters development, in their rush to get to the big 'throw in every piece of #StarWars tech we've ever seen into one battle' climax. I didn't care when characters died in that battle. I still didn't know who they were enough to care.
@SlowRain to this day I struggle to remember all the main #R1 characters' names, and I've seen it 3 times (out of curiosity, how many can you name without consulting #IMDB or #Wikipedia?). I've seen #Solo twice, and I can at least tell you the first name of every character that has one (clearly stated in dialogue that is). I cared when Qi'ra was left behind on Correlia. I cared when Val and Rio died. When Has shot Beckett, I felt vindicated an conflicted along with him.
@SlowRain as for the #R1 plot, the pacing had some serious issues (see rush to final battle as already mentioned). The writers can't help what we already know (from 1-6), but they don't have to give away what few mysteries there could have been. That prologue scene would have been more effective, narratively and emotionally, as a flashback when Jyn sees her father on Eadu. Up to then, she could have been using only her first name, never revealing her parentage to us.
@SlowRain the whole plot would have worked better if it gave us more time watching the characters interact, and get to know and trust each other. That way we get to know them too, rather than just watching them wander through an endless series of Bang! Crash! set pieces (Kidnappings! Explosions! Tentacled, mind-reading creatures who have no effect on the outcome! More explosions!)
Regarding R1, names aren't important to me. I watched Molly's Game a couple of weeks ago & can only remember Molly & Player X (the latter one for obvious reasons). Yet I loved that movie. I can remember the names Finn, Rose, Rey, Phasma, Kylo, Maz, Poe, Haldo, BB8, from 7 & 8, yet I despise those movies. (That may be because there is a lot more discussion about the main series online than there is about R1, so I see those names mentioned more often.)
I agree about the opening of R1, though. It was horribly rushed. A good example of how not to do things. But, once it hit its stride, it seemed to carry its own (I've only seen it once when it was first released). I think we knew who everyone was, what they were doing, & why. It seemed to be good adventure story-telling from that point on. I don't think the characters are any worse than the original series or Solo. They were certainly better than the prequels.
I don't mind R1 not keeping Jyn's family a secret. I'm a little tired of secret fathers & sisters. I was annoyed it was brought up in Ep. 7, but like how it was brushed aside in Ep. 8.
I don't mind knowing the ending of the book or movie right from the start, because most of the time the journey is more interesting than the destination.
My enjoyment of R1 may have been enhanced because of my utter disappointment with Ep. 7. I'll have to rewatch it during a typhoon day this summer (R1, that is; I have no intention of ever watching 3, 7, or 8 again; & I think I'll boycott 9 because I hate everything Jar Jar Abrams touches: Mission Impossible 3, Star Trek, Star Wars).
I think R1 appealed to me so much because of our divisive times. It was a movie about a ragtag group of more or less normal people who had been cast aside & were not part of the system. They banded together to do the right thing.
In our world of racism, where greedy businesses get exposed daily for exploitation of workers or user information, where politicians are maneuvering in ways not seen since WW2, it's refreshing to see people do the right thing.

Ged Hanlon
Influences in my athletic adventures.
First and foremost I could never have gotten anywhere without the wholehearted support of Gill. She encouraged and supported me through thick and thin, well, except the time before we started running when she couldn't stop laughing as I announced that I intended to enter a marathon.
I suppose my first influence would have been "Skull"! Mr. McDonald ( from the south of England ) was a science teacher at my secondary school and was so named because he was extremely thin. He helped with the track team and looked rather comical in his shortie short shorts and his bone thin legs but he could run like the wind. I remember him shaking his head at me when I'd just finished the 880yds on the cinder track at Caird Park. "A big lesson in intimidation Hanlon, eh?" I'd finished second last and while the rest of the field were doubled over gasping for air I was barely out of breath. A big lesson!
At about 16 I got more involved in team sports and left athletics behind, so fast forward 15 or so years to 1983 and here comes my brother, Richard, running down the High Street to finish the first Dundee Marathon. I'd gone to cheer him on and whilst watching the finishers I thought "I could do that!" So I decided I'd enter the 1984 marathon. I went training with Richard and we became regular Sunday running partners for many years. 7.00am every Sunday wind rain or shine to get our long run in and home in time to let Gill do the same before lunch time.
The biggest help to get me on the road, literally, was Eric Ferguson. Eric was physiotherapist at Dens Park and also for the national football team and he helped me deal with an old knee injury I'd picked up playing football. We had to work for a number of months building up the muscles around the joint to give it the stability to endure the distances I hoped to run. I almost gave up this long and painful process at times but Eric was sure that I'd be ok as long as I stuck to the plan.
Now after running the 1994 race, Iíd competed the course in 3hr 7min which would be the fastest I would ever go over that distance, I met long time friend Charlie Anderson. He had also started running and encouraged me to join a new club in Dundee, Dundee Roadrunners, and soon both Gill and I were members.
Enter one Dave Roy! Dave was club secretary, and a real buzzer. He was at the heart of almost everything going on at the club. Organising buses, arranging teams, encouraging newcomers, you name, he did it. His natural enthusiasm infected us all and drove us to push ourselves and each other to do the best for our club.
The next people, and I say people because I can't separate them, were Bob Wood and Ricky Davidson. We'd train as a group running 10 miles each Tuesday in under an hour and faster on a Thursday. The rep. type training we do now was a few years away. Whoever was feeling best would set the pace, the others hanging in knowing that the group wouldn't split. I remember Ricky saying to me after training one night, "Thank goodness you were able to keep asking Bob all these questions!" Each time he pondered his answer and spoke the pace would drop to just about manageable. These guys pulled me on to faster and faster times.
Karl Oparka, later to become club president, joined and encouraged us to have a go at the cross country. The club didn't really participate in these events and Karl had done some whilst at university and reckoned we would all benefit from the discipline. It was to become my favourite type of racing not least because I could cuff a lot of runners I couldn't look at on the roads. I ran and enjoyed cross country for many years and was rewarded with many fine runs and a Team Silver at the National Cross Country Championships.
The next influence came from a dirty Hawkhill Harrier, Alan Matheson. Alan was a work colleague and suggested we train during our lunch break on Mon. Wed and Fri. and so fartlek, stepping stones, acceleration and reducing recovery all became part of a nice relaxing lunch. Alan trained exceptionally hard especially if there were any dogs around. Although there was on occasion a huge hound of some kind stopped him in his tracks by pinning him to a tree. Ours were tears of laughter, his were real. Unfortunately Alan died as the result of a freak accident.
On these lunchtime sessions we were often joined by this lassie and I think without Liz McCollgan's persistent nagging at me to train on the track I would never have developed the mental toughness that would take me to the next level. Some of the training left you feeling quite sick and at first my legs were so gone that a warm down was out of the question. But I hung in there and was rewarded with my best times. 30.29 for 10k, 54.02 for 10ml, 70.14 for half marathon and 21.20 for 15ml. The 15 was probably one of my best races. After going through the half marathon banner in 68min, never to be achieved in a half itself, I finished a very creditable 14th.
John Anderson, the Gladiator man, was Liz's coach at that time and he always had time for the rest of the group. He taught me how to do "my training" and how to use the faster and slower runners to get the best from the session but he mainly influenced me to start coaching. I'd been involved in instruction through the Boys Brigade and mountaineering, so I started to coach middle distance at Caird Park track. I was still with Roadrunners and as I got more into the coaching, now with some national standard athletes, I found I was not really being able to get along to train with them. Plus when I travelled to events I couldn't take part in very much and if I could I was a team of one. Gill was now expressing a desire to have a go at racing on the track and so we became turncoats and transferred our membership to Hawkhill. I would never run any better times in a "Hawks" vest but I did get that cross country silver.
After about 7 or 8 years Hawks fell into a bit of decline and the group I had was to disintegrate. University, work, beer or boys beckoned and with Gill having to give up the track racing we decided to come home to Roadrunners. I did manage to run for a few years more but that old knee injury flared up again and eventually I had to hang up the old trainers. I still keep involved with the club, helping with training on Thursdays and supporting races and social events.
Other people of note, in no particular order, would be - John McInally, member of Dundee Thistle Harriers. If you can remember that far back. Frank Clarke, stretching and warm up expert. Errol Galloway, wind-up expert. Sue Roger, sheer determination. Muriel Muir, untapped talent. Dave Moorcroft (world record holder) he wasn't too big to train with me a few lunchtimes at Caird Park. Ken McAndrew, enthusiastic coach. Pete Fox, he could still run a half in 64min wearing floral shorts. Irene Gibson, daughter of an Olympic athlete and with the legs to prove it. Bruce Anderson, exceptional racer.
Just as a footnote, our club are now going global after some Afgan pinched Tony McPartland's club vest. Tony, a serving soldier in the Army, was stationed here as part of the training set up at Buddon Training Camp and he ran with us for a number of years. Once his tour of duty had finished he first served in Bosnia then on to Afganistan. It's amusing to know that there's some Afghan going around, pleased as Punch, wearing the colours of Dundee Roadrunners.

What 8 Celebrities Say About Living With Anxiety/
What 8 Celebrities Say About Living With Anxiety
Charmaine Patterson
May. 01, 2019 10:18AM EST
Celebrity NewsWellnessLife & TravelCulture & Entertainment
Celebrities have proven that their famous status doesn't make them exempt from struggling with anxiety. Living their lives for the world to see, judge and react with a meme or GIF sometimes can only add to the apprehension they experience. While some can say each celebrity signed up for living their life in the public, anxiety is something that anyone, famous or not, can relate to.
Fortunately, stars like Cardi B, Big Sean and Taraji P. Henson haven't been holding back lately when it comes to discussing their experiences. Beyond the idea that it normalizes them, they've given their own reflective moments of how they've been able to treat it and make it through. Check out what some of our faves have to say about dealing with anxiety.
Big Sean Opens Up About Dealing With Anxiety:
Big Sean was MIA for roughly a year before he opened up about dealing with anxiety. He seemed to be on top of the world before he canceled a tour in 2018 and took a step back from the spotlight altogether. Upon his return, he revealed he was dealing with anxiety and depression. He deleted all of his previous Instagram posts and started fresh with a series of videos to update his fans:
"I felt like something wasn't all the way connecting with my energy. I wasn't feeling like myself and I couldn't figure out why. I stepped back from everything I was doing and everything I had going on because somewhere in the middle of it I just felt lost…I got a good therapist. I was blessed enough to talk to some super spiritual people and they made me realize that one thing I was missing in my life… I needed clarity… I had to realize that it all started with me and nurture those relationships that were important to me.
"I started realizing that you can't give or depend on somebody for love or a good time if you can't give it to yourself. I started doing things by myself like going sky diving. In the midst of that I definitely rediscovered myself and found a whole new energy, and me being the source of it, not somebody else."
Missy Elliott Credits God For Getting Her Through Anxiety Attacks:
Missy Elliott has been open about her life with anxiety for quite a few years now. While she's known as a rapper who has broken one boundary after another, she said when she was younger, she was afraid of having too much attention, worried that someone could be laughing at her. She revealed that she had an anxiety attack before her surprise performance at the Super Bowl halftime show in 2015. She credits God for getting her through tough moments like that:
"I said, 'If I can get over this step, then I know all my dance steps will be on point.' I know it was nothing but the grace of God that lifted me up and took me through that performance."
Taraji P. Henson On Her Experience With Anxiety And Depression:
It seems like everywhere we look, Taraji P. Henson is rocking a new role. But the iconic actress recently talked about her experience with anxiety and depression. She confessed that it's her level of fame that can make it even worse at times. Henson added that while talking about it with loved ones can be healthy, seeing a therapist is what helps her cope:
"My anxiety is kicking up even more every day, and I've never really dealt with anxiety like that. It's something new. [Fame] was fun at first, but the older I get, the more private I want to be. I think there's a misconception with people in the limelight that we have it all together, and because we have money now and are living out our dreams, everything is fine. That's not the case. When they yell 'Cut' and 'That's a wrap,' I go home to very serious problems. I'm still a real human."
"I talk to someone. I have a therapist that I speak to. That's the only way I can get through it. You can talk to your friends, but you need a professional who can give you exercises. So that when you're on the ledge, you have things to say to yourself that will get you off that ledge and past your weakest moments."
She also opened up about the stigma that the Black community doesn't embrace professional therapy:
"We're walking around broken, wounded and hurt, and we don't think it's OK to talk about it. We don't talk about it at home. It's shunned. It's something that makes you look weak. We're told to pray it away. Everyone was always asking me, 'Do you have a charity?' Well, dammit, this is going to be my calling, because I'm sick of this."
Cardi B Opens Up About Her Battle With Postpartum Depression:
On the heels of her Grammy win, Cardi B opened up about her battle with postpartum depression after welcoming her daughter in July 2018:
"I thought I was going to avoid it. When I gave birth, the doctor told me about postpartum, and I was like, 'Well, I'm doing good right now, I don't think that's going to happen.' But out of nowhere, the world was heavy on my shoulders."
"For some reason, I still don't feel like my body's the same. I feel like I don't have my balance right yet. When it comes to heels, I'm not as good at walking anymore. I feel like I'm holding a weight on me. I don't know why because I'm skinnier than I've ever been. But there's an energy I haven't gotten back yet that I had before I was pregnant. It's just the weirdest thing."
How does she get through it? The "Please Me" rapper said she takes breaks from social media.
"I really don't need it, and sometimes it just brings chaos to my brain."
Justin Bieber On Depression During His Purpose Tour Causing Him To Cancel 14 Shows:
The singer is another one who took a break from fame (as much as he could anyway), and revealed his life with depression and anxiety. He said he had depression during his Purpose tour in 2017, causing him to cancel 14 shows:
"I haven't talked about this, and I'm still processing so much stuff that I haven't talked about. I was lonely. I needed some time. It's been so hard for me to trust people. I've struggled with the feeling that people are using me or aren't really there for me … One of the big things for me is trusting myself. I've made some bad decisions personally, and in relationships. Those mistakes have affected my confidence in my judgment. It's been difficult for me even to trust [my wife] Hailey. We've been working through stuff. And it's great, right?"
Bieber admitted that he once turned to Xanax to help him before he started seeing a therapist.
"I have been looking, seeking, trial and error as most of us do, I am now very focused on repairing some of the deep-rooted issues that I have as most of us have, so that I don't fall apart, so that I can sustain my marriage and be the father I want to be. Music is very important to me but Nothing comes before my family and my health."
Kid Cudi Talks Fighting Off His Thoughts Of Suicide:
Kid Cudi was one of the first celebrities of color to open about anxiety and depression. He wrote an open letter after going to rehab. He said he checked into a facility after he realized the status of his mental health had taken over, preventing him from trusting people, making friends and even living the house. He decided to get help to fight off his thoughts of suicide.
"If I didn't come here, I would've done something to myself. I simply am a damaged human swimming in a pool of emotions every day of my life… I deserve to be happy and smiling. Why not me? I guess I give so much of myself to others, I forgot that I need to show myself some love too. I think I never really knew how. I'm nervous but I'ma get through this."
Fortunately, more recently he said he's doing great.
"I'm the best I've ever been in my life. I realized I was genuinely happy, and there's nothing really going on in particular. Just being 34, to be still doing what I love. Taking care of my responsibilities, and my daughter's good and my family's good. Creating is making me happy again."
Serena Williams Talks Postpartum Emotions Following The Birth Of Her Daughter:
New mom Serena Williams said she had a new appreciation for motherhood after welcoming her daughter last year.
"Not only was I accepting some tough personal stuff, but I was just in a funk. Mostly, I felt like I was not a good mom. I read several articles that said postpartum emotions can last up to 3 years if not dealt with."
She said talking about it is what has helped her the most.
"I like communication best. Talking things through with my mom, my sisters, my friends let me know that my feelings are totally normal. It's totally normal to feel like I'm not doing enough for my baby."
Shonda Rhimes Talks Struggles With Social Anxiety:
She's the brains behind most of our favorite primetime shows, but Shonda Rhimes has also struggled with social anxiety.
"I was sort of going on...about all the invitations that I've received and my sister finally sort of cut in and said 'are you going to say yes to any of these things?' and I remember being very taken aback and saying 'no, I'm busy, I can't."
She said her sister brought it to her attention that she never says yes to anything, and that was a moment of reality for her. Her outlet was none other than creating Grey's Anatomy character Cristina Yang, who Rhimes said was her alter ego.
"During my darkest hours, my quietest saddest moments, my loneliest times, writing Cristina Yang fortified me"[I] let her do and think and live in ways that voiced my dreams. She did not want to get married. She had a genius that she chased. She loved her work. I gave her a strident desire to not have children because while I adore children, I wanted to watch her fight that feminist battle and win."

HIMSS has a multi-tier system to measure the level of a hospital's technology sophistication.
The implementation of an electronic medical record (EMR) to convert from a paper chart record system to a high-tech paperless system can take a large investment of time and money and years to complete. Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Analytics measures the progress of a hospital's using a seven-stage scale it calls the EMR adoption model.
Stage one includes hospitals that have installed electronic EMR systems in its primary ancillary departments the rest of the hospital relies on – the laboratory, pharmacy and radiology departments.
Stage two includes connecting major ancillary clinical systems to feed data to clinical data repository (CDR) that provides physician access for retrieving and reviewing results.
Stage three includes clinical documentation installed (e.g. vital signs, flow sheets, nursing notes, care plan charting, and/or the electronic medication administration record (eMAR) system are scored with extra points and are implemented and integrated with the CDR for at least one service in the hospital. The first level of clinician decision support is implemented to conduct error checking with order entry (such as drug/drug, drug/food, drug/lab, conflict checking normally found in the pharmacy). There is also some level of medical image access from picture archive and communication systems (PACS).
Stage four includes implementing computerized practitioner/physician order entry (CPOE) for use by any clinician and second-level clinical decision support related to evidence-based medicine protocols.
Stage five includes creating a closed loop medication administration environment that is fully implemented in at least one patient care service area. The eMAR and bar coding or other auto-identification technology, such as radio frequency identification (RFID), are implemented and integrated with CPOE and pharmacy to maximize point-of-care patient safety.
Stage six includes implementing full physician documentation/charting using structured templates for at least one patient care service area. A full complement of radiology PACS systems is implemented with all images, both digital and film-based, available to physicians via an intranet or secure network.
Stage seven is the final goal of any EMR implementation, which is a paperless EMR environment where clinical information can be readily shared via continuity of care electronic transactions with all entities within health information exchange networks (including other hospitals, ambulatory clinics, sub-acute environments, employers, payers and patients). Also at this stage, HCOs use data warehousing and mining technologies to capture and analyze care data, and improve care protocols via decision support.
Even at the the lower adoption stages below stage four, Mike Davis, executive vice president of HIMSS Analytics, said clinicians are still getting more information than they had available using paper charts. This is because the current state of the patient is automatically dumped into the patient record directly from monitoring devices, faster transcription times, nursing notes. lab results, radiology and other electronic sources. He said this extra information helps lead to better clinical decisions. In addition, he said immediate access to the EMR from any computer helps increase staff efficiencies.
At stages four and five, Davis said hospitals integrate CPOE systems, bar-code devices and medication management systems with the patient EMR and use the five rights for medication management.
However, only about 2 percent of U.S. hospitals are at stage five, and only about 1 percent of hospitals are at stage six. For that reason, Davis said it is difficult to gage national trends in terms of patient safety increases with such a small number of hospitals. However, he said the statistics from those hospitals that are at levels five and six show significant patient safety statistics. Davis said these hospitals definitely saw drops in the number medication errors and incidence of hospital-acquired infections.
To get from stage one to stage six usually takes a hospital about seven years to achieve, because Davis said each new addition of technology must be integrated into hospital workflows, the staff must be trained, and it takes time to work the glitches out of the system.
In most cases, hospitals are finding mistakes with bar-code and CPOE systems they never caught before. Davis said this is a good example of the fact it is difficult to gage the true return on investment for implementing EHR technology, especially bar-code systems and CPOE, because errors are not always recognized or reported before these systems are used. For this reason the true extent of errors is not really known. In any case, he said these systems have proven very useful at decreasing overall errors and increasing patient safety.
New technology adoption at stage five and six hospitals also helped deceased transcription times from eight to 12 hours down to less than an hour, which aids patient care, David said.
"When you have data coming back that quickly you can make much better decisions," David said.
Adoption of EHRs and supporting technologies is being driven primarily because hospitals what to have better patient outcomes. Better outcomes also act as a marketing advantage to help draw more patients as healthcare becomes more consumer driver.
"If I had to go to a hospital, I want to go to one with these systems in place," Davis said.
Better outcomes and better technology to help improve workflows also helps attract good clinicians to these hospitals, he said. In the future, pay-for-performance programs and non-reimbursement from Medicare and Medicaid for hospital errors or hospital–acquired conditions or infections will make the EMRs and their goal of increasing patient safety even more important.
"EMRs will be a requirement for hospitals to compete in the future," Davis said.

China, Russia and Iran to hold joint naval drills from Friday
Posted By: تجمع سورية الامon: December 29, 2019 In: world News
– China, Iran and Russia will hold joint naval drills starting on Friday in the Indian Ocean and Gulf of Oman, China's defense ministry said on Thursday,amid heightened tension in the region between Iran and the United States.
China will send the Xining, a guided missile destroyer, to the drills, which will last until Monday and are meant to deepen cooperation between the three countries' navies, ministry spokesman Wu Qian told a monthly news briefing.
The drill was a "normal military exchange" between the three armed forces and was in line with international law and practices, Wu said.
"It is not necessarily connected with the regional situation," he said, without elaborating.
The Gulf of Oman is a particularly sensitive waterway as it connects to the Strait of Hormuz – through which about a fifth of the world's oil passes – which in turn connects to the Gulf.
The drills are also coming at a time of fraught tensions between the United States and Iran.
Friction has increased since last year when U.S. President Donald Trump pulled the United States out of Iran's 2015 nuclear deal with six nations and re-imposed sanctions on the country, crippling its economy.
Washington has proposed a U.S.-led naval mission after several attacks in May and June on international merchant vessels, including Saudi tankers, in Gulf waters which the United States blamed on Iran. It denies the accusations.
Tension has risen in the region not only over Iran's disputed nuclear program but also over a September attack on Saudi oil facilities blamed on Iran by the United States and Saudi Arabia. Iran also denies involvement.
The Indian Ocean and Gulf of Oman are key areas for international trade and maintaining security in the waterways is an important task, Brigadier General Abolfazl Shekarchi, spokesman for Iran's armed forces, said on Wednesday, according to the official IRNA news agency.
"This drill will take place for supporting and increasing experience in the security of international trade in the region," he said.
China has close diplomatic, trade and energy ties with Iran.
But China also has good relations with Iran's regional rival Saudi Arabia, meaning it has long had to tread a fine line in a part of the world where it has traditionally exerted far less sway than the United States, Russia, France or Britain.
Chinese President Xi Jinping is likely to visit Saudi Arabia next year as it is the host of the 2020 G20 summit.

Fishersgate railway station is a railway station in West Sussex, England, serving the area of Shoreham by Sea known as Fishersgate east of its Southwick part as well as parts of Portslade within Brighton and Hove City Council in the ceremonial county East Sussex. The station is operated by Southern and is 3 miles 47 chains (5.8 km) down the line from Brighton.
3 Services
The station is unusually close to a major boundary, one which is urban with no nearby buffer zones – immediately east of the station is the Vale Park part of Portslade and higher Portslade Village for which this is the nearest station. Fishersgate itself amounts in its mainland residential part to an outlying part of either that greater community, discounting its community church, or the east end of Southwick, having its football stadium much closer to the station than Southwick railway station for example.[1] The east arm of Shoreham Harbour is metres from the English Channel here, separated by a breakwater spit with warehouses, storage/loading yards, affording some unobstructed views out to sea. The west extreme of the spit of land closer to Southwick has a small non-nuclear power station and a small sewage works bolstering local employment, and Fishersgate has a fuel depot and some dock buildings.
The station was opened by the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway on 3 September 1905, and was originally named Fishersgate Halt. On 5 May 1969 it was renamed Fishersgate.[2]
There is step-free access to both platforms.
The station is operated by Southern and is on the West Coastway Line. It has no ticket office, instead, a cash or credit card ticket machine.
As of 2015, the standard off-peak train services are:
2tph to Brighton
2tph to West Worthing
On Sundays, one of the West Worthing services extend to Portsmouth Harbour and the other extends to Southampton Central.

Apple Newbies Tour: Learn More About Apple!
This weekend, I decided to spread the word about Apple Newbies a bit more. Therefore, I created my first Apple Newbies YouTube video that provides a tour of the Apple Newbies website.
I think the video will be helpful for anyone that wants to learn more about Apple and Apple products. It shows them what the website offers and how to navigate around the website.
If you already visit Apple Newbies regularly, you probably know your way around the website pretty well. But just in case you don't, you can also watch the video tour.
During the tour, I cover the website, social media buttons, the Apple Newbies store, Contact, and more.
Unfortunately, there is a new addition (coming soon) that wasn't ready in time for the video. Stay tuned for that! I think it will be a good. I'm excited!
Apple Newbies is designed to help new and experienced Apple product users. If you are interested in learning tips to improve your Apple product experience, this is the website for you. If you are thinking about buying Apple products, you can get tips and ask questions. If you have any questions or problems, just enter them in the "Contact" section. Make sure you share this with your friends and family that have or are considering buying Apple products!
So, please take a little bit of time and review the Apple Newbies YouTube video. I hope you enjoy it. If so, be sure to share it with your friends to help me get the word out.

Pod cast transcript: We will be talking today about why wham guard rotating bumpers are better than a typical boat dock rollers. Boat dock rollers have been on the market for about 20 years and wham guard is an innovative solution to an ongoing problem that boat owners face. So today, I am here with Wes hamilton. You are the founder and owner of wham guard and today. We wanted to talk a little bit about comparing WhamGuard rotating bumpers and boat dock rollers. There's some significant differences. A boat dock roller is attached with metal attachment brackets top and bottom and has a cylinder that is 3 in in diameter and they're six foot long and so the attachment the metal attachment is at the top and the bottom. What's 6 foot in between and? What is the landlord look like when guard rotating them for to be specific, because you have other products as well right, that's right, but that the lion guard rotating bumper it it has a a bushing that attaches to the post I'm a two-part bushing. So you put one part around one side of the post and the other part of the bushing around the other and it bolts, together with four bolt to top and bottom, there little three quarter inch bolt bulbs that are heading inside, and then you take a hemisphere, Boat Dock Rollers bumper, that's 13 and a half inches tall and about 6.75 in wide, and you put it on one side of the bushing, then you take a identical hemisphere and put it on the other side of the bushing. Making a complete spear that is completely enveloping the post on your.How is that different than a traditional boat dock roller, because it actually all the attachment, is inside and protected by the actual roller on the way um guard and where the typical boat dock roller. That has the metal attachment that attaches to the top and the bottom of the post, and that metal attachment can extend up to 13 in out into the slip where your boat is entering the slip. So it's more likely to hit a metal attachment on that, metal attachment top and bottle in in between is the 3-inch diameter cylindrical roller. So there's a lot of gap there and there's a lot of metal. That's exposed to impacts by your boat and what is the danger of having a boat ran into metala boat is typically made out of fiberglass in fiberglass and steel at even a minimal impact can cause significant damage to a boat which is very expensive to be repaired. So why would anyone even purchase the traditional boat dog roller that we see you and we we know if you were to google boat dock rollers there's a I think ryan, o rollers comes up and then there's a couple other ones that have started coming up. But why would you, as a boat owner, even be interested in that then for the last 20 years it's Boat Dock Rollers been the only product out there, but then you know I've been thinking about this problem for quite a while, and the vanguard rotating bumper solves the deficiencies with like the other boat dock rollers out there cuz it's all of the deficiencies. I understand it covers the post but and mean to kidsis still damage your boat, which is how does it? How does it work? That's a different than the traditional you can always damage your boat. Do people find ways to damage anything, but definitely it aids, a, a, boat, captain pilot to whoever is driving the boat at aids in cuz. It actually rotates and the rolls that's the way. I am guard rotating bumper so as you're coming into slip, and if you happen to make contact with the wind guard, it's made out of a high density polyethylene and that will not mark mark up your boat boat, but it rolls and absorbs the impact and then guide you into the destination. What you want to be, which is safely inside your slip. What sounds like? The traditional boat dock rollers werei mean basically a protruding steel bar covered in plastic, cuz i, don't i, wouldn't say covered in plastic, but it's steel bars with plastic in between them. So any part of it was right, but leaving this bastille expose definitely in and leaves people able to pair up their boat on a traditional and talk to me about the strength of a. Pierre versus the strength of the steel say in a boat dock roller, because it seems like the boat dock rollerson the inside would have a bunch of it. It just seems problematic to me. So what? What? What's the difference? In the strength when you got a metal pole protruding from the boat. As opposed to say the boat dock? What is metal thing that holds it up? Upright post square square tubing? Typically some places around with the wind guard. It completely enveloped slap post that holds up the roof on the dock, so you know what? Yes, it's one of the strongest structures on the dock is the popo. So if you hit just the post with your your doc is it's going to do with your boat? Is going to do significant damage to your boat and also to the doctor, I've seen many of those upright post that the are bent from people making significant in packs and that's why the the actual rotating part of the bumper in the flex, the book blow atlanta of the wind garden rotating bumper wear, now that there is a small diameter of the traditional rhino boat dock roller is only 3 in so it is easy to there's. Typically, it least a 6 ft or 6 inch gap between the post and the roller. So if your boat happens to get the flective into the post, with that, I can still do significant damage to your boat, where the wind guard completely enveloped that poster upright roof support on your doc.


The Waterproof Cycle Oversocks by SealSkinz are a brilliant addition to the regular road cyclists or cycle commuters wardrobe, particularly if you get chilly feet. They're great for those rain-likely autumn and spring days, and will help keep your feet dry and warm even if the weather is on the 'British Summer Time' setting.
SealSkinz are a well established name in the world of waterproof accessories. The British company have been producing garments with their proprietary stretchy waterproof membrane for over 30 years, and even supply kit to the British Army, no less. Their waterproof socks are a staple product of the cyclist in the know, but they also have a range of other items that are equally handy including gloves, hats and oversocks.
The Cycling Oversocks are, as the name might suggest, large stretchy socks that you pop on over the top of your cycling shoes. They have an open bottom, to allow the cleat on the bottom of the shoe to make contact with the pedal, and the base of the heel of the foot is also open. I wasn't sure initially how far up the back the hole was supposed to sit, but it just needs to allow the bottom of the sole to show through and keep the rest of the shoe covered.
Worn on a cold, windy day, I found they kept the breeze out brilliantly, and my toes warm. Normally I'm quite susceptible to cold toes in my road shoes, so this was great. I've also worn them on a warmer, wet day. They kept the wet out, and were also surprisingly breathable. I have yet to try them for a long ride in really heavy rain, but I'll report back when I do.
One of the things I like about these socks is that they are versatile. I've used things like neoprene shoe covers before and found them a bit of a faff to put on, but these are quick and easy to slip on. I've ended up using these on perfectly dry but chilly rides just to provide a bit of insulation.
A downside I've found is that the knitted fabric does begin to wear if you walk a lot in them, which is perhaps not surprising. On the other hand, they are reasonably priced, easy to clean, and come with a 2 year guarantee.
Size-wise, these stretchy socks come in 3 sizes; small/medium, large and extra large. I'm a UK women's size 7 so I opted for the small/medium size, which fitted perfectly.
All in all, these easy-to-use overshoes are a great addition to your cycling wardrobe, particularly if you are prone to cold feet.


Conversations around the Eclipse California office can venture into a variety of topics, most recently being what it means to dress professionally. In the customer acquisition industry, properly attired individuals exude more confidence not only for themselves, but on behalf of the partners they represent. Our clothing sends a message about how seriously we treat ourselves as business pros and the pride we take in the jobs we do.
•	Focus on Quality and Tailored Clothing: Even a suit can look shabby if it's poorly made. When buying professional clothing, look for high-quality materials that will stand up to repeated wear. If needed, have your pants, skirts, blazers, or suitcoats tailored to fit your body shape, which will create a more polished look.
•	Make Sure Everything Is Clean and Pressed: The night before, take time to press your outfit for the following day. If you have pets, be sure to keep a lint remover handy to remove stray animal hairs.
•	Don't Forget Your Shoes: We should shine from top to bottom, which is why it's crucial to polish our shoes and remove scuff marks.
For examples of professional dress and to join the discussion, like Eclipse California on Facebook.

String cheese refers to several different types of cheese where the manufacturing process aligns the proteins in the cheese, which makes it stringy. It is possible to peel strings or strips from the larger cheese.
In Slovakia, korbáčiky is made, which is a salty sheep milk cheese, available smoked or unsmoked. It is traditionally made by hand-pulling steamed sheep's cheese into strings and braiding them. Machine milk versions are also available.
In Armenia, traditional string cheese is made with a white base. The type of milk used usually comes from an aged goat or sheep depending upon the production methods of the area of choice. It includes black cumin and a middle-eastern spice known as mahleb, and it comes in the form of a braided endless loop. The cheese forms strings because of the way it is pulled during processing. There is also Syrian cheese processed this way. Other cheeses are only cut and pressed, not pulled, and don't develop strings.

Die Zeche Erin war ein Steinkohle-Bergwerk in Castrop-Rauxel.

Geschichte

1866 bis 1900
1858 konsolidierte der irische Bergbauunternehmer William Thomas Mulvany mehrere Grubenfeldbesitztümer im Gebiet von Castrop. Als Erinnerung an seine Heimat erhielt das neue Grubenfeld den Namen der Göttin Erin, eine Form des gälischen Namens Eire, der für Irland steht.

Unter Kapitalnahme durch die Preußische Bergwerks- und Hütten-AG begann Mulvany mit dem Abteufen der Schächte 1 und 2 an der Karlstraße in Castrop. Bereits 1867 wurde mit der Kohlenförderung begonnen. Die Konzeption und der Ausbau der Schachtanlage erfolgte nach Standards, die aus dem angelsächsischen Steinkohlenbergbau übernommen wurden. Schacht 1 und 2 hatten nur einen Abstand von 20 m zueinander. So konnte, wie auf einigen britischen Zechen damals üblich, ein gemeinsames Maschinenhaus zwischen den Schächten errichtet und die Seilführung über zwei Ausleger aus den Giebelseiten dieses Hauses in den Schacht umgelenkt werden. 1870 wurde auf der Schachtanlage eine Kokerei mit Bienenkorböfen in Betrieb genommen.

In den Folgejahren ereigneten sich mehrere Schlagwetterexplosionen mit Todesopfern, ferner führten starke Wassereinbrüche immer wieder zu Betriebsunterbrechungen, die die Kapitaldecke der Betreibergesellschaft erheblich schwächten. 1877 meldete die Preußische Bergwerks- und Hütten-AG Konkurs an. Die Zeche Erin wurde nur provisorisch offengehalten und förderte Kohle lediglich zum Eigenbedarf.

Aus diesem Umstand erklärt es sich, dass die Zeche Erin nicht wie die anderen von Mulvany gegründeten Zechen Hibernia und Shamrock bei Gründung der Hibernia AG als Bergbaukonzern einbezogen wurde.

1882 gründete Friedrich Grillo eine neue Gewerkschaft Erin. Diese Gewerkschaft investierte nun umfangreich in die ersoffenen Grubenbaue und sümpfte sie mit Erfolg. 1887 erwarb die Gelsenkirchener Bergwerks-AG (GBAG) die Zeche Erin nebst Kokerei. In den Folgejahren wurde die Kokerei durch einen Neubau abgelöst. Die Förderanlage der Schächte 1 und 2 wurde durch eine im Ruhrgebiet einzigartige Konstruktion ersetzt: Es wurden zwei kleine deutsche Strebengerüste, die über eine Laufbrücke miteinander verbunden waren, als "siamesische Zwillinge" über den Schächten errichtet.

1889 bis 1891 wurde östlich der Schächte 1 und 2 als Seilfahrt- und Wetterschacht der Schacht Erin 3 abgeteuft und in Betrieb genommen. Hierdurch verringerte sich auch das Schlagwetterrisiko erheblich. Über diesem Schacht zunächst ein eisernes Fördergerüst errichtet. Die Förderung stieg nun erheblich an und brachte damit die GBAG an erste Stelle unter den deutschen koksproduzierenden Unternehmen.

Zur Vervollkommnung der Wetterführung und zur Konzentration der Förderung auf Schacht 1/2 wurde 1890 bis 1892 neben Schacht 1/2 als reiner Wetterschacht Schacht 4 niedergebracht. Ferner wurde im Nordostfeld von 1892 bis 1895 als weiterer reiner Wetterschacht Schacht Erin 5 geteuft.

1900 bis 1953

Ab 1905 wurde Schacht 3 zeitweise als eigene Förderanlage geführt. Es wurde von diesem Schacht aus die selbständige Vorrichtung des Nordostfeldes vorgenommen. Schacht 5 wurde als Wetterschacht für den Förderschacht 3 weitergeführt. Die geförderte Kohle wurde wegen fehlender Aufbereitungsanlagen auf Schacht 3 übertägig mit Pferdebahnen nach Schacht 1/2/4 weitergeleitet. 1908 wurde Schacht 3 bis zur 4. Sohle – 498 m () tiefergeteuft. 1909 erhielt Schacht 2 ein neues Fördergerüst, danach Förderkörbe mit 4 Etagen für je 2 Wagen und eine neue Fördermaschine. 1912 erhielt Schacht 1 ein neues Fördergerüst und die Fördermaschine wurde von Trommel- auf Koepefördersystem umgerüstet. 1913 wurde mit 2475 Belegschaftsmitgliedern die Rekordjahresförderung von 625.560 Tonnen erreicht. 1914 erreichte Schacht 1 bei -457 m () die 4. Sohle. 1915 vermeldete die Kokerei eine Rekordproduktion von 210.000 Tonnen. 1919 fiel sie durch die Rezession auf 55.845 t. 1921 wurde Schacht 5 zur 4. Sohle abgeteuft.

Von April 1923 bis zum Juli des gleichen Jahres stand Erin unter französischer Besetzung (passiver Widerstand). Mit 3.272 Belegschaftsmitgliedern wurde eine Jahresförderung von lediglich 188.930 Tonnen erzielt. Nach und nach wurden Grubenfelder mit den Nachbaranlagen getauscht. Beim Entstehen der Vereinigte Stahlwerke AG im Jahr 1926 wurde der Bergbau im Bereich um Castrop und Sodingen neu geordnet. Die 1925 stillgelegte Zeche Teutoburgia in Herne wurde an die Schachtanlage Erin 1/2/4 angeschlossen. Schacht Teutoburgia 1 wurde als Seilfahrtsschacht weitergenutzt, Schacht Teutoburgia 2 fungierte ab 1934 nur noch als Wetterschacht. 1929 wurde über Schacht 3 ein Hammerkopfförderturm aufgestellt, der ursprünglich über Schacht 2 der Zeche Vereinigte Westphalia in Dortmund stand. Ein Jahr später wurde die Kokerei der Schachtanlage Erin 1/2/4 durch einen modernen Neubau ersetzt.

1937 wurde die Förderung in Schacht Erin 3 eingestellt, da geplant war, Schacht 1/2/4 zur Zentralförderanlage auszubauen. Die Förderung erreichte eine Million Tonnen Fett- und Gaskohle pro Jahr. Zum weiteren Ausbau der Zeche wurde 1943 zunächst damit begonnen, die Wetterführung im Westfeld zu optimieren. Der hierzu begonnene Wetterschacht Erin 6 musste allerdings wegen der laufenden Kriegsereignisse gestundet werden.

Die Schachtanlage wurde am 3. Januar 1945 bei einem Bombenangriff schwer beschädigt und am 27. Februar wurde die Förderung eingestellt. Nach einem weiteren Angriff musste auch die Koksproduktion am 13. März eingestellt werden. Kurz nach der Besetzung durch amerikanische Truppen am 8./9. April kam die Zeche unter britische Verwaltung. Während die Förderung bereits am 19. April wieder aufgenommen werden konnte, begann die Kokserzeugung am 11. Oktober 1945 mit dem Anfahren der Batterien 1 und 3. Erst 1951 waren alle Kriegsschäden beseitigt. Schacht 6 wurde zwischen 1948 und 1951 fertiggestellt.

Die Zeche Erin wurde ab 1951 unter einer eigenen Betreibergesellschaft fortgeführt. Diese war eine hundertprozentige Tochtergesellschaft der GBAG. Von 1951 bis 1953 wurde bei der Schachtanlage 1/2/4 der neue Hauptförderschacht 7 niedergebracht. Dieser erhielt ein vollwandiges Fördergerüst der Bauart Dörnen und sollte die zentrale Produkten- und Materialförderungsfunktion übernehmen.

1953 bis 1983
Ab 1956 wurde die Zeche Erin durch die Dortmunder Bergbau-AG geführt. Bis 1962 wurden die Schächte 1 und 2 nach und nach aus der Förderung genommen. Das Zwilligsgerüst Erin 1/2 wurde Zug um Zug durch eine kleinere Einrichtung ersetzt. Die Schächte wurden fortan nur noch als Wetterschächte betrieben.

1966 führte die Zeche Erin Rationalisierungsmaßnahmen durch, so vor allem eine zunehmende Automatisierung der Strebbetriebe.

1967 erfolgte der Verkauf der Zeche Erin an den Eschweiler Bergwerks-Verein (EBV), der um diese Zeit einige Zechen im Herner und Castroper Gebiet erwarb (s. Zeche Lothringen, Zeche Graf Schwerin).

Unter der Führung des EBV wurden der Zeche Erin Reservefelder von Lothringen und Graf Schwerin zugewiesen. Der Schacht Lothringen 6 wurde als Wetterschacht übernommen.

Betriebskennzahlen
Die höchste Jahrsförderleistung wurde 1973 mit 1.480.855 t erzielt. Im Jahr 1957 erreichten die Koksproduktion mit 832.330 t den Höchststand. Ebenso die Belegschaft mit 4.799 Beschäftigten.

In der logarithmischen Darstellung der Betriebskennzahlen ist deutlich das unverändert hohe Niveau der Förderung und Kokserzeugung während des Zweiten Weltkrieges bis 1944 sowie der Einbruch 1945 aufgrund der Kriegszerstörung zu erkennen. Ebenso der Rückgang der Produktion im Jahr 1923 durch den passiven Widerstand der Bergleute während der Besetzung des Ruhrgebiets durch französische und belgische Truppen.

Stilllegung
Die jäh einsetzende Absatzkrise ab 1982 führte beim EBV zum Entschluss, sich nach und nach aus dem Bergbaugeschäft zurückzuziehen. Die Zeche Erin, die nach fast 120-jähriger Fördertätigkeit keine ausreichenden Kapazitätsreserven mehr hatte, wurde zur Stilllegung festgeschrieben.

Am 23. Dezember 1983 erfolgte die Stilllegung des Förderbetriebes. Die Kokerei wurde 1984 gelöscht. Mit der Stilllegung beendete die erste und auch letzte fördernde Zeche Castrop-Rauxels die Ära des Steinkohlebergbaus der Stadt.

Heutiger Zustand

Die Schächte wurden verfüllt. Die Fördertürme über Schacht 7 und Schacht 3 sind als Industriedenkmale erhalten. Sie künden (teilweise illuminiert) weithin von der großen bergbaulichen Vergangenheit der Stadt Castrop-Rauxel.

Auf dem Gelände der Zeche Erin 1/2/4/7 ist in einigen alten Nebengebäuden sowie auf den Freiflächen der früheren Kokerei ein Technologie- und Gewerbepark entstanden.

Der ehemalige Wetter- und Seilfahrtschacht Erin 3 ist einer der ältesten noch erhaltenen Türme seiner Art. Er ist technikgeschichtlich bedeutend und ein Zeugnis der Wirtschaftsgeschichte der Stadt. In Gedenken an den irischen Gründer William Thomas Mulvany wurde um diesen Förderturm herum ein keltischer Baumkreis errichtet. Der Kreis orientiert sich angeblich an einem mythischen "Baumkalender" der Kelten, basiert jedoch auf einer modernen Erfindung.

Neben dem Hammerkopfturm wurde 1902 ein Bergbeamtenhaus erbaut. Seine Größe, der architektonische Aufwand und die repräsentativen Details spiegeln den gehobenen Zechenwohnungsbau wider.

Beide sind Teil der Route der Industriekultur.

Journalism schools may bring to mind ink and Pulitzers. But at Morgan State University, a j-school, as we grads call them, is growing up for a new generation that thinks globally and across delivery platforms. The three-year-old School of Global Journalism and Communication is also only one of five journalism schools at an Historically Black College and University (HBCU).
Nieman Lab has an interview with DeWayne Wickham, the former USA Today columnist who is now the dean of the school.
There is plenty of talk of fundraising and the other ins-and-outs of being a dean, but in the middle of the interview, Wickham talks about the wider media world. He parries the notion that journalism is dying, and in doing so locates a place for journalism schools amid several closings and general fretting about their place. People want news, but institutions like journalism schools have a role in figuring out how to distribute it.

Fred Hutchinson Research Market gets $20M From Amazon's CEO Family
Posted by Anita Zhang on Tue, Apr 08, 2014
The Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center received a donation of $20 million from Mike Bezos, a family member of Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos this April to support development of novel cancer immunotherapies. This donation is the largest single contribution in the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center's history.
Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center has been gaining ground with its interdisciplinary teams of world-renowned scientists and excellent programs, which are discovering new methods to detect cancers earlier and developing effective treatments with fewer side effects.
Since the 1970s with Dr. E. Donnall Thomas' pioneering work in bone marrow transplantation, researchers in the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center have been actively working on a number of breakthrough programs, including developing immunotherapies that use the immune system to defeat cancer.
Immunotherapy, which has successfully attracted Bezons' attention and donation, has impressive results from Leukemia and Lymphoma patients. Bezons' donation will be used to continue this research and help scientists apply their work to other kinds of cancer treatment. Researchers in the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center believe that immunotherapy will be effective for broader cancer treatments.
The eradication of cancer is an ambitious goal and a relentless pursuit, which demands that the world's greatest minds work together. The Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center's scientists and researchers include a MacArthur fellow, three Nobel Laureates, seven members of the National Academy of Sciences, five members of the Institute of Medicine, six members of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, nine members of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and eight current and former Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigators.
With the finest scientists, the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center not only successfully attracts the private and public grants and awards, but also breeds a number of lifesaving researches and private startups as well.
Adaptive Biotechnologies, a Seattle startup that was born out of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, has successfully attracted $105 million to launch a kit that allows researchers and pharmaceutical companies to take a genetic snapshot of how a patient's immune system responds to therapy. Juno Therapeutics, which is another startup that is incubated by the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, raised a record-breaking $120 million in December 2013, and was added $25 million in the following month in 2014.
The Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center itself is an extremely well funded research marketplace. The Hutchinson Center has attracted more than $199 million grants from the NIH in 2013 and more than $62 million so far in April 2014.
Right now is probably the best time to market to academic researchers and lab managers in Seattle area. Biotechnology Calendar, Inc. is providing this opportunity to lab supply companies to network with the researchers and scientists in life science in Seattle. On August 19th 2014, Biotechnology Calendar, Inc. will hold the BioResearch Product Faire™ Event at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center.
Biotechnology Calendar has been producing top quality on-campus trade show for more than 20 years. Last year, the BioResearch Product Faire™ Event at Fred Hutch attracted 140 attendees who were from 8 different research buildings and 19 on-campus departments. Of these attendees, 40 were purchasing agents and researchers, and 19 were lab managers. The participation of the Hutchinson BioResearch Product Faire™ Event will boost the attendee's awareness of new products and technologies and help lab supply and lab research companies to increase sales in Seattle area.

The economy is not obtaining much better, but solar panels can help you conserve a little bit of money. The installation of solar panels in your home or workplace can assist you conserve a lot of cash really. It is getting to be winter now, and there is no much better way to conserve money on energy bills in the cold months than to use solar panels to power your house.
There are just couple of fundamentals in developing a photo voltaic panel. First you will need photo voltaic cells. You can buy new cells which will have a long lifespan or you can use old damaged down cells, which you will have to change following a brief time. If you are developing panels simply for an experiment, you can use the previous solar cells for the building. You then need to solder the photo voltaic cells in a series and also take the output present into consideration. Kindly be aware that only with the right voltage as nicely as adequate present 1 can have sufficient power to make the preferred software function.
If?ou ha?e?ade it this far in the article you ma? ha?e alr?ady decided that sol?r power?s out?f your spending budget. Ye? the price appea?s very higher for?our objective?f lowe?ing your energy expenses and go?ng eco-friendly. B??eminded th?t t?e cost is for e?ch install?tion and is? onetime?xpense. Using this cutt?ng edge technology?as some drawba?ks bec?use it is ne? and?till being develo?ed?nd imp?oved. Add?tionally, the costs of professionally inst?lled?ystems ar? reflected by th?s fa?tor. To?xtend t?e?vailable time p?wer i? available and durati?n of elements of the Paneles solares en Queretaro set up, the entire system is design?d t? wo?k with?ppliances that are en?rgy effective.
Don't ignore little rust and mold issues. These are typical in many older houses, and can rapidly become widespread, big problems. The smaller the problem is when you tackle it, the easier it is to offer with. It can cost lots of cash and take tons of work to deal with them if you take as well long. Use bleach to get rid of mildew. Sanding frequently assists to remove rust.
The solar panels that you set up are heading to require immediate sunlight during the working day for the best effects. Your roof requirements to have sufficient area for you to build adequate solar panel installation panels on it. If your roof is being shaded by big trees, it will not be in a position to produce as much electrical energy.
A house owner who has a solar panel battery ought to then connect it to the installed panels. Then, the only job that will require to be carried out is to link the panels to the inverter. While photo voltaic panel set up is fairly simple, electrical wiring is not and one may want to have this element of the work carried out by a professional.
The advantages are incredible which is why photo voltaic energy power is turning into more and more well-liked. Individuals not only want to turn out to be much more environmentally pleasant, but also people are searching for methods to reduce expenses in any case they can.
Be cautious when you determine to select photo voltaic panel installation. Los Angeles residents should appear for a company which is based in their region so that it is simple to go to them in case of require. Evaluate the company staff in your interaction with them. They should be prompt, friendly, and competent.

IPR Patentability of All Challenged Claims – SAS Institute v. Iancu
by Douglas Sharrott; Shannon K. Clark
When The USPTO Institutes Inter Partes Review, It Must Decide Patentability Of All Challenged Claims
On April 24, 2018, in a 5-4 decision the Supreme Court held in SAS Institute Inc. v. Iancu that when the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") institutes an inter partes review, it must decide the patentability of all of the claims the petitioner challenged, based on the plain text of 35 U.S.C. § 318(a).
SAS filed a petition seeking inter partes review of all 16 claims of ComplementSoft's software patent. The USPTO concluded SAS was likely to succeed in showing that at least some of those claims were unpatentable. Pursuant to its "partial institution" practice as set forth in USPTO regulation 37 C.F.R. § 42.108(a) (purporting to authorize "review to proceed on all or some of the challenged claims and on all or some of the grounds of unpatentability asserted for each claim"), the USPTO instituted review on some but not all of the 16 claims. Consequently, the USPTO's final written decision addressed the patentability of only some of the claims challenged in SAS's petition.
The Court found no basis in the statutory text or framework for the USPTO's partial institution practice. The statute's § 318(a) states that "[i]f an inter partes review is instituted and not dismissed . . . the [USPTO] shall issue a final written decision with respect to the patentability of any patent claim challenged by the petitioner" (emphasis added). The Court found that "shall" means that the USPTO "must" address all claims the petitioner challenged, and that "any" patent claim means "every" patent claim. Reasoning that inter partes review is supposed to mimic civil litigation, the Court concluded that the scope of review is defined by the petitioner's petition, not by the USPTO's discretion. Although the statute's § 314(a) gives the USPTO the discretion of whether to institute review, the Court explained that this decision is "a binary choice—either institute review or don't"; "it doesn't follow that the statute affords [the USPTO] discretion regarding what claims that review will encompass."
Thus, the Court's decision abrogates the first part of 37 C.F.R. § 42.108(a). Under the Court's decision, a final written decision must address every challenged claim. Consequently, the final written decision with respect to every challenged claim is subject to appeal to the Federal Circuit. Previously, as a practical consequence of partial institution, a petitioner would not have been able to seek review of the patentability of challenged but non-instituted claims because (1) they would not have been addressed in the final written decision, and (2) the Court's Cuozzo decision would have prevented the appeal of the non-institution decision on patentability grounds. The Court did not discuss whether the second part of § 42.108(a) is still in effect, and thus it appears that the USTPO may continue exercising its discretion to institute on less than all grounds raised by petitioner for any given claim. And the Court did not discuss the effect, if any, of its decision on IPR estoppel attaching to final written decisions.
An underlying current in the case was the issue of Chevron deference, specifically whether the Court would accept SAS's invitation to abandon the judicial practice of deferring to an agency's interpretation of ambiguous statutory language. Having found that the statutory text here was plain and unambiguous, the Court concluded that it did not owe Chevron deference to the USPTO's interpretation, and it left open the question of whether Chevron deference should remain. The dissenting justices would have found the statute ambiguous and under Chevron would have found the USPTO's regulation was a reasonable interpretation promoting the policy of efficient, streamlined review. In any event, the majority quickly dispensed with the USPTO's policy argument, explaining that this was an argument properly addressed to Congress, not the Court. The USPTO "may (today) think [its] approach makes for better policy" but the Court explained that a policy argument cannot create an ambiguity when the statute's text is clear. Thus, it is up to Congress to change the statute if it favors the USPTO's approach.
