The North Hudson Sewerage Authority (NHSA) has established a "Waterbody Advisory System" in order to provide the public with real-time information related to Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs) near its outfalls into the Hudson River.
CSOs are a combination of storm water and wastewater flows which reach such high volume levels that they cannot be handled by either the sewer collection system or wastewater treatment facility. Because the capacity of the system is exceeded in such instances, the CSO empties directly into the River. This may occur during certain intense rainstorms.
The "Waterbody Advisory System" map below is designed to alert the public when a dry or wet weather CSO event occurs at an NHSA discharge point into the Hudson. The system utilizes level sensors in the sewer system to monitor and report CSO incidents. This information is then posted in real-time. The map depicts inactive CSOs as green circles, indicating no CSO activity near that outfall. Red circles indicate that there has been CSO activity and contact with the water in areas within 100 feet of the outfall should be avoided. A purple or blue circle indicates that the monitoring unit is currently not active, and likely down for servicing.
If you need to report an emergency issue that requires immediate attention such as sewer odors, sewer backups, suspected breaks in a sanitary sewer or storm drain, or missing manhole covers, please use the the telephone hotline (866.689.3970).


Wow, it feels like ages since the last time. Is it just me ore does more and more time pass between each new post? Not quite what I imagined when I started this blog. So, how come it's been so long since the last time? Well, the reason is that we got a new family member in mid-February. May I introduce Harry, our (today) 13 weeks old puppy. A mix between Lhasa Apso and Shiht Zu.
I'm a huge dog lover, and Harry is our third dog. It's been more than 10 years since we last had a dog and I feel a bit rusty – okej, a lot. Haha.

FIA Formula E Championship – Berlin ePrix race report
Get the latest info on the championship here
by: Adam Towler
Jérôme d'Ambrosio inherited victory in round 8 of the FIA Formula E Championship, after race winner Lucas Di Grassi was stripped of the win following a technical infringement.
The race was held on a course constructed at Berlin's former Tempelhof airport, the dusty and dirty surface and tight, twisty nature of the track providing a tough challenge for the drivers, teams and the Michelin Pilot Sport EV tyres fitted to all the cars. With 17 corners during the 2.47km lap, and an abrasive surface due to the ageing concrete slabs, the race promised plenty of overtaking and didn't disappoint.
Switzerland's Sébastien Buemi (e.dams-Renault) dominated the first free practice session, with Brazilian Luca di Grassi (Audi Sport Abt) heading the second. However, come qualifying Italy's Jarno Trulli (Trulli Racing) surprised everyone by securing his first pole position of the championship, ahead of di Grassi, Buemi and Nick Heidfeld (Venturi).
At the start of the race Trulli ran wide at Turn 2, enabling Di Grassi to slip through into the lead. He then successfully defended his lead until the chequered flag.
That was not the end of the story, however, as a few hours after the race finished the FIA excluded the Brazilian because his car failed post-race scrutineering. It was discovered that the front wing fairings had been modified to include internal metal reinforcing rods.
Behind Di Grassi the racing had been very competitive, with d'Ambrosio (Dragon Racing) now promoted to the top step of the podium, Sebastién Buemi in second position and Loïc Duval (Dragon Racing) taking third.
For Michelin it was a job well done in difficult conditions. "The track evolved as the day progressed," reported Serge Grisin, manager of Michelin's Formula E programme. "The conditions improved and, although we knew the surface would be tough on tyres, we believed we would be able to contain the phenomenon of wear. And that's exactly what happened. None of the drivers reported the slightest problem with their tyres and we are delighted to have risen so successfully to what was a sizeable challenge. Not only is the MICHELIN Pilot Sport EV competitive but it was also designed to be durable and today's race provided further evidence of its extraordinary versatility."

Child born amid flames and gunfire matures as his nation struggles
Sydney Morning Herald - August 31, 2019
James Massola, Dili – Joanna Remejio has a crystal-clear memory of the night her first child, Pedro Unamet, entered the world. She was 20 and her husband, Simplicio, was 17. It was Tuesday, September 7, 1999.
Gunfire rang out across East Timor's capital, Dili, and militias roamed the streets. The couple, like hundreds of other Timorese, had been sheltering in the United Nations compound in the capital for several days after Indonesian militia had strafed the school in which they were staying, forcing them to flee.
East Timor had voted on independence from Indonesia on August 30 and on September 4 the result was declared. A whopping 78.5 per cent of people had voted yes to independence and the already febrile situation on the ground became increasingly violent.
The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age's legendary foreign correspondent Lindsay Murdoch, one of the last Western journalist in Dili, was also in the UN compound on the night Pedro was born.
He described the scene: At 3.15 am, probably the darkest hour of a long night, Pedro poked his tiny, furry head into the world.
I was, at the time, dozing two metres away on the concrete floor of a makeshift hospital.
Pedro didn't cry too much, so as not to wake me. But instead of opening my eyes to the 'crazy dog' militia, as we now call the killers over the razor-wire fence, I saw a beaming Mrs Joanna Remejio nursing her just-born son on a piece of cardboard laid on the floor.
She wasn't showing the pain she was obviously suffering after the birth of her third child.
"I am very happy that my baby is alive," she said... Father Peter Hosking, a Melbourne priest, fussed over mother and child, who were doing nicely. Within three hours, he had baptised the tiny baby as Mrs Remejio had insisted – full name Pedro Unamet Remejio.
As Pedro's 20th birthday approaches, and as East Timor celebrates the 20th anniversary of that vote, Joanna recalls the fear she and her family felt in the days leading up to the birth of her son.
"At that time, on September 4, after the result came out, we saw smoke over the city, the militias began to come for people and everyone was afraid, that's why we decided to run," Joanna says.
And while they did consider fleeing for the hills, as many in the city did, Joanna was simply too heavily pregnant to undertake the journey.
When the militias started to shoot near the school they were staying in, near the UN compound, Joanna and Simplicio decided to jump the fence and seek more secure shelter.
Two decades later and in the calm light of day, we sit on plastic chairs in the same home the family fled 20 years ago. Half a dozen coffins sit on the other side of the room – the family business.
Joanna recalls that night. Emiliana, a nurse from Liberia who was working for the UN was present, as was Australian Jesuit priest Peter Hosking. The pair helped Joanna during the birth.
"I was surprised, Pedro was such a quick delivery, it was like a miracle delivery, I never felt like I had just given birth."
Hosking, who is now based in Adelaide, remembers the violence following the independence vote vividly too.
"The compound became a place of sanctuary for a couple of hundred UN staff, and 800 or 900 East Timorese who came in. It was crowded, people had cut themselves coming through the razor wire. There was a French doctor, a Liberian nurse and myself. We were getting nervous about water running out," he says.
"I was also getting concerned about security – you realised it could be overrun at any point."
Hosking remembers being woken at around 3am by the nurse on the night Pedro was born.
"I heard some people outside my door and the Liberian nurse was being so gentle with this baby who was being born. And he was born, and she wrapped him up. We were all so afraid and it was this moment of joy, vulnerability, hope."
A few hours later Joanna asked him to baptise the newborn, choosing his name as an homage to the priest and to the United Nations Mission in East Timor (Unamet).
The couple, who are not wealthy, have six children who they are sending to a local Catholic school.
Pedro, who laughs when I suggest he is famoso, is due to finish school at the end of the year. He is "proud that our country is independent now" and he has high hopes for his own future.
"I want to go to university, to the national university of East Timor. My plan, my dream is to be a geologist."
Joanna jumps in. She wants him to go to a foreign university, perhaps in Darwin.
"When he was a small child, I checked the cost... but it's very expensive. So I have already tried to get him a scholarship to go overseas. I want him to study in another city," she says.
On Thursday she lobbied Ian Martin, the head of Unamet who was in town for the anniversary, to help her meet Xanana Gusmao – the hero of the resistance and still the most influential politician in East Timor – to try and secure government support for a scholarship.
The chaos that followed the August 30, 1999 referendum on whether East Timor should be independent had been in the offing for months and surprised few in the city.
In the end, 1500 people would die and more than 500,000 people were displaced during the violence. Unamet staff who helped organise the vote were evacuated to Darwin – along with scores of local refugees from the violence such as Joanna, Simplicio and Pedro – and thousands of homes and businesses were destroyed across the newly independent nation.
James Batley was Australia's High Commissioner in the Solomon Islands when the call came from Canberra in June 1999. He was being sent to East Timor to head up the Australian government presence ahead of the vote and recalls vividly how tense the lead-up to the vote was.
"The sound of gunfire was constant. It was not necessarily at anyone. I remember a car dealership opposite the embassy being set on fire," he says.
"There had been violence, people had been killed, we had seen the rise of militia groups. There was a rapid build-up of UN numbers to manage it," he says.
"The overriding thing was the violence and the question of how bad it could get, could it derail the process. From the Australian government's point of view, it was still an Indonesian province... there was a lot of diplomacy both publicly and behind the scenes."
It wasn't until the Australian-led Interfet (International Force East Timor) returned on September 20 that the situation began to calm down.
Hosking recalls, amidst the trauma and violence of the militias marauding around the city, making his peace with dying in those dark final days in the compound before he was evacuated.
"Curiously, with my training as a Jesuit and as a clinical psychologist, I kind of felt like this is exactly where I was supposed to be, this is where God wants me to be.
"I remember talking to the head of the Jesuit Refugee Service at the time, Sue Curtain. There was a sense of facing my death, and being at peace with it."
After leaving East Timor, Hosking says, "I felt we had abandoned people in a moment of need, so going back in October [1999] to September the following year was probably the most meaningful thing I've done in my life".
Fast-forward 20 years and East Timor, a nation of about 1.3 million people, still has serious problems.
Development has not been as rapid as its citizens might have hoped, with nearly half the population still living in poverty. The country faces a significant demographic challenge – half its population are under the age of 35, and there aren't nearly enough jobs for them all.
The country's infrastructure is in a parlous state, the health and education system need serious improvement and its finances are fragile: about 90 per cent of East Timor's annual $US1.3 billion budget is paid out of a Petroleum Fund which holds about $US15 billion but which is being depleted.
The legacy of being a neglected colony of Portugal for more than 200 years until 1975 – and then invaded, occupied and colonised by Indonesia until 1999 – has left the country myriad challenges.
Joaquim Sarmento and Tarcisius Dewanto became priests a few months before independence in 1999. Today, Sarmento is the head of the Jesuits in East Timor. His friend and colleague Dewanto was killed in the days after the independence vote – as was another priest, Karl Albrecht, just a few metres from where we sit and talk.
The Catholic Church was targeted at this time because East Timor is a deeply religious country – about 98 per cent of the population is Catholic – and its priests, nuns and brothers offered shelter, counsel and protection from danger.
Sarmento is blunt about the challenges that still face his country, arguing that East Timor has not developed as rapidly as it might have because there was a "lack of preparation and experience for self-government".
The leaders of the independence struggle – including former prime ministers Xanana Gusmao and Mari Alkatiri and current leader Taur Matan Ruak – still dominate politics. "Our orientation is still to the past, we refer to history."
This manifests, he says, in the appointment of people to government posts: "There is favouritism of those who fought in the past... not on the quality needed.
"People have become so dependent on the state, there is not enough job creation, people are just waiting for the state to create jobs... people have lost the spirit of working together."
Sarmento would like to see politicians put aside their differences and work together again, as happened in the years leading up to independence, but he isn't sure if it can happen.
Batley, the former ambassador who stayed from 1999 to 2002, also notes the prominent role many independence leaders still play in politics.
"It's interesting to see the independence leaders are still essentially running the country," he says.
"I'm not surprised Timor still struggles with issues of development, notwithstanding the high hopes at the time. There is still a lot of poverty."
On the eve of the anniversary of independence – and after everything that happened – Joanna also says she is disappointed with the political instability that has beset the country in recent years, with several changes of government and development slow.
But it isn't all bad. "The difference now is we are a free nation, and I'm glad. We are free, there is no pressure, we are not afraid now."

Whether it is children, a spouse/partner or work colleague we all know about interruptions and how annoyed we get about them.
So here it is, take a deep breath, step back and accept it may be more your issue than theirs.
A typical situation goes like this. I'm at home with the children, I'm with them but not really present, checking my email, watching the news whatever it is. The children keep asking me for things, jumping on me making lots of noise at what appears to be the worst moment. My tension is rising steadily and I'm getting annoyed at the interruptions. The real question to ask is how important and urgent is what I'm doing?
Change your mindset and approach and all that tension disappears. Put the phone down, turn the TV off get on the floor or wherever you need to be and focus on being involved in that moment of play, homework or what ever it is. Time will fly,the children will be happy and you won't be annoyed.
Take a different situation. You're at work, normal day, busy with your own work. One of your colleagues is working on something they are unsure about. They pop into your office / stop by your desk / shout across the room with a "quick question". You stop what you're doing and answer the question, then go back to your work. A few minutes later it happens again, and few minutes after that and a little while after that. Each subsequent time you're interrupted it seems to take longer to regain your train of thought. Familiar???
Again change your approach. Instead of being inward and doing the bare minimum in answering the question asked, take a moment and engage. A simple "how's it going?" "do you need help with anything else?" Giving that person your full attention for probably no more than 10 minutes will be far more productive for you and them, not to mention the positive feeling in generates and the reputation you gain.
So if you want to put an end to annoying interruptions focus on what you can do to change the situation rather than what you wish someone else would do whilst seething. Change your behaviour to something positive and your interactions become more positive.

9.44 The irresistible force of even as powerful an idea as UBI will run into the immovable object of a resistant, pesky reality. So, what is the way forward, always remembering that the yardstick for assessment is not whether UBI can be perfect or faultless but only whether it can improve substantially upon the status quo?
9.45 What would a UBI potentially cost? This is not an easy calculation because it depends on a number of objectives and assumptions. This is described carefully in the following manner.
9.46 Based on the 2011-12 distribution of poverty it seems clear that going from a certain very low level of poverty to eliminating it will be prohibitively high. So, a target poverty level of 0.45 percent is chosen. Then the 2011-12 consumption level is computed for the person who is at that threshold. The next calculation is the income needed to take her above INR 893 per month, which is the poverty line in 2011-12. This comes to INR 5400 per year. Subsequently, that number is scaled up for inflation between 2011-12 and 2016-17: this yields INR 7620 per year. This is the UBI for 2016-17. For reasons explained later, the survey assumes that in practice any program cannot strive for strict universality, so a target quasi-universality rate of 75 percent is set. The economy-wide cost is then the UBI number multiplied by 75 percent. This yields a figure of 4.9 percent of GDP.
9.47 One important point to note. This UBI calculation does not require any assumption about the poverty headcount rate. It only requires consumption data on the marginal poor (the person at the 0.45 percent threshold) and the poverty line. Figure 1 shows UBI for various target poverty levels and corresponding fiscal costs.
9.48 The calculation assumes that private consumption has not changed at all implying that real income of the poor at the threshold poverty level of 0.45 percent in 2016-17 has not increased in real terms since 2011-12.This is unlikely to be true. Thus, the actual cost of a UBI to the government could be lower. If, for example, the real income of that marginal poor grew at the same rate as overall GDP per capita (which would be about 2 percent per year), the UBI amount will decline to INR 6540 per capita per year, costing 4.2 percent of GDP.
9.49 Since these calculations are based on 2011-12 consumption data projected forward, the implicit assumption is that UBI will be additional to the poor's existing consumption which includes consumption from public programs (PDS, MNREGA, etc.). Is this reasonable or plausible?
9.50 On the one hand, a case could be made that if current programs are prone to exclusion error, which is likely to affect the poorest amongst the poor to a greater extent, then this methodology is not unreasonable.
9.51 However, there will be cases where PDS or fertilizer subsidies do reach most beneficiaries which will then have be taken into account if a measure of UBI as a replacement program is to be calculated. This is a complicated task because there will be a number of general equilibrium effects which will need to be considered. For example, replacing the PDS will increase market prices of cereals the poor face. Similarly, phasing down MGNREGS might reduce market wages for rural casual labour. Calculating these effects and hence the exact magnitude of subsidies will help refine any costing of the UBI.
9.52 However, as discussed earlier the UBI is likely to be more effective than existing programs in reducing misallocation, leakage and exclusion errors. In that case, the prior would be that not accounting for replacement would still not seriously affect the costing of UBI. After all, replacing one rupee of the fertilizer subsidy should require a compensating UBI of less than one rupee.
9.53 The process of determining a UBI amount is not a one-time exercise: as the UBI is a cash transfer, its 'real' value tends to be determined by inflation in the economy. Over time, the same amount of cash transfer may not buy the same amount of goods. It is, therefore, important to index it to prices such that the amount gets revised periodically. Politics can play a huge role in determining the exact amount each time it is up for revision and so it is important to set up a sufficiently politically neutral mechanism to do so. Ray (2016) proposes setting UBI as a constant share of the GDP to overcome this complication.
Where is the fiscal space to finance universal basic income?
9.54 Table 1 presents the costs to the centre of running various welfare programmes and provision of services. Any government will have to decide on what programmes/expenditures to prioritize in order to finance a UBI. The lowest rungs of the table are presented for completeness, and it may not be advisable to replace these. In other words, while a UBI may certainly be the shortest path to eliminating poverty, it should not become the Trojan horse that usurps the fiscal space for a well-functioning state.
9.55 The first few rows of Table 1 are the subsidies for the non-poor/middle class households, equivalent to about 1 percent of GDP. Next listed are the government subsidies that account for 2.07 of the GDP (2014-15 actual). The corresponding figure for the states in 2011-12 is 6.9 percent. Among these,as table 1 shows, the subsidies for fertilizer, petroleum and food constitute the largest amounts. Previously, the chapter argues that the government runs a plethora of schemes– the top ten centrally sponsored or central sector schemes (not including subsidies) cost the state about 1.4 percent of GDP (2014-15 actuals). The remaining 940-odd sub-schemes account for 2.3 per cent of the GDP. Further below in the table, we list the other government expenditure: spending on education, health, pensions, police, defence and interest payments.
9.56 Here, it is clear that the magnitude of middle-class subsidies would be roughly equal to the cost of a UBI of INR 3240 per capita per year provided to all females. This will cost a little over 1 percent of the GDP – or, a little more than the cost of all the middle-class subsidies. However, taking away subsidies to the middle-class is politically difficult for any government. It is clear that while the fiscal space exists to start a de facto UBI, political and administrative considerations make it difficult to do this without a clearer understanding of its larger economy-wide implications.
9.57 Conceptually, a well-functioning UBI can be designed. How should one go about attempting to implement the same in a country as vast and complex as India? There exist, when translating the idea into reality, tensions that tug in opposing directions: there is the pull of universality, the need to contain fiscal costs, the difficulty of exit from existing programmes and the need to introduce a system that is not beyond the admittedly constrained ability of the Indian state to implement things at scale.
9.58 Below are three principles that could help guide thinking in this direction.
9.59 If universality has powerful appeal, it will also elicit powerful resistance. The popular reaction to demonetization reveals a deep sense that the well-off gain from and game the current system to their advantage. In that light and keeping in mind fiscal costs, the notion of transferring even some money to the well-off may be difficult.
9.60 It is, therefore, important to consider ideas that could exclude the obviously rich, i.e., approaching targeting from an exclusion of the non-deserving perspective than the current inclusion of the deserving perspective. And there are a number of possibilities here.
9.61 A guiding principle is gradualism: the UBI must be embraced in a deliberate, phased manner. A key advantage of phasing would be that it allows reform to occur incrementally – weighing the costs and benefits at every step. Yet, even gradualism.
9.62 Rather than provide a UBI in addition to current schemes, it may be useful to start off by offering UBI as a choice to beneficiaries of existing programs. In other words, beneficiaries are allowed to choose the UBI in place of existing entitlements. This strategy has many advantages, beyond simply containing costs. It gives people agency, not only in that they have greater choice, but importantly because they have greater power in negotiating with the administrators who are currently supposed to be giving them benefits. This threat, expressed or latent, will then provide incentives to the administrators of existing programs to improve their performance. In the case of a fertilizer outlet, for example, the dealer knows that if he diverts the rice for his own purposes, he faces the threat of exit – beneficiaries will switch to a UBI. This, in turn, will reduce the quota of fertilizers allocated to his outlet.
9.63 Designed in this way, UBI could consequently not only improve living standards; it could also improve administration (and cut the leakage costs) of existing programs.
9.64 However, there are at least two concerns with the process listed above: one, by allowing the UBI as a choice over current entitlements, it reinforces all the current problems with targeting. This also ensures continuity of the misallocation problem with richer districts having a greater access to welfare benefits; furthermore, those excluded from the system will be unable to give anything up to avail themselves of the UBI; those well-off who are currently (wrongly) included will continue to have the right to be included.
9.65 Another problem is that this would be administratively cumber some. Although arguably a one-time event, who, for instance, in the case of fertilizer subsidies identifies and compiles the lists of persons who have given up access? This would likely be another opportunity for corrupt actors.
9.66 A UBI for women can, therefore, not only reduce the fiscal cost of providing a UBI (to about half) but have large multiplier effects on the household. Giving money to women also improves the bargaining power of women within households and reduces concerns of money being splurged on conspicuous goods. The UBI could also factor in children in a household to provide a higher amount to women. This addition, though, has three potential problems – one, it may not be easy to identify the number of children in a household; two, it may encourage households to have a greater number of children; and three, phasing out boys from beneficiary list once they reach a certain age (say 18 years) may not be easy to monitor and undertake.

All-time record (home winning streak):The Miami Hurricanes proudly boast an impressive 58-game winning streak at home. The streak spanned nine seasons and has remained uncontested since its inclusion into the NCAA record books.Note: The NCAA observes "home winning streaks" as a particular team's unbroken series of winning on that particular team's home field. With regards to winning streaks, to include home winning streaks, the NCAA does not differentiate a regular season loss from a postseason loss; moreover, the NCAA does not discriminate a regular season win from a postseason win. In accordance with this standard, the NCAA recognizes the Miami Hurricanes as possessor of such a record, in consideration of three Orange Bowl victories, which sets the record of home winning streaks at 58.(Current as of Sep 25, 2011)Current record (home winning streak):Oklahoma just extended their lead to 38-straight wins at home with a 38-28 victory over Missouri (Sep 24, 2011).As one of the best home-field advantages in college football, the Oklahoma Sooners enjoy an all-time record of 357-78-15 (.809) at home.Please refer to note below.Note: The NCAA observes "home winning streaks" as a particular team's unbroken series of winning on that particular team's home field.

NAME: Influenza virus type A (excluding 1918 influenza A (H1N1) strain and subtypes H5, H7 and H9).
SYNONYM OR CROSS REFERENCE: Orthomyxovirus , grippe, and flu(1).
CHARACTERISTICS: Members of the Orthomyxoviridae family of segmented, negative sense, single-stranded RNA viruses(1,2). Type A influenza viruses are subdivided on the basis of the antigenic nature of their membrane-bound surface glycoproteins, haemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). To date, 16 HA, and 9 NA subtypes have been detected in wild birds and poultry, of which subtypes H1N1 and H3N2 are currently circulating among humans in seasonal influenza outbreaks(3,4,5,6,7). Antigenic alterations occur frequently in influenza HA and NA antigenic sites and are the mechanism for virus adaptation to the host and survival. Small alterations are referred to as antigenic drift, whereas larger alterations caused by reassortment are referred to as antigenic shift. Influenza pandemics may occur as a result of antigenic shifts if the mutation of the virus leads to efficient human-to-human transmission(2,8). Only three haemagglutinin subtypes (H1, H2, H3) and two neuraminidase subtypes (N1 and N2) have established stable lineages in the human population since 1918(9).
PATHOGENICITY/TOXICITY: An acute viral disease of the upper respiratory tract characterized by fever (temperature 37.8ºC or above), headache, myalgia, malaise, sore throat, non-productive cough, sneezing and nasal discharge(10). Among children, otitis media, nausea and vomiting are commonly reported(11). Pulmonary complications of influenza include pneumonia (viral and bacterial), croup, asthma and bronchitis. Myocarditis and pericarditis are occasional cardiac complications. Fatality due to influenza is generally low, except in those with chronic lung or heart conditions(1). Secondary bacterial pneumonia after influenza is a leading cause of mortality worldwide(12).
EPIDEMIOLOGY: Influenza caused approximately 36,000 deaths per year in the United States between 1990 and 1999, and approximately 226,000 hospitalizations between 1979 and 2001(13,14).
Influenza can occur in pandemics and epidemics, localized outbreaks, and as sporadic cases(1). In temperate climates, epidemics of influenza typically occur during the late fall and winter seasons(2,11), whereas in tropical and subtropical regions influenza epidemics occur throughout the year(11). Historical evidence suggests that more severe, world wide pandemics have occurred at 10 to 40 year intervals since the 16th century(2).
A pandemic that occurred in 1957-1958 (Asian flu) was caused by influenza virus A subtype H2N2, that resulted from the reassortment of circulating human H1N1 and avian H2N2 viruses(15), and is estimated to have caused 70,000 deaths in the United States(16).
Another influenza pandemic that occurred in 1968-1969 (Hong Kong flu), was caused by an H3N2 strain of influenza that was the result of a reassortment between circulating human H2N2 and avian H3(15) viruses and is estimated to have caused 34,000 deaths in the United States(16). Together, the Asian and Hong Kong flu pandemics resulted in 1 to 2 million deaths worldwide(17).
Since the Hong Kong flu (H3N2) pandemic, the number of influenza-associated hospitalizations has typically been greater during seasonal influenza epidemics caused by influenza A/H3N2 viruses than during seasons in which other influenza A virus subtypes have predominated(18).
During the summer of 2002, an epidemic of respiratory illness with 22,646 cases and a 3% case- mortality affected Madagascar and was attributed to a strain of H3N2(9).
The 2009 H1N1 pandemic resulted in rates of infection ranging from 11% (New Zealand) to 21% (Pittsburgh, USA) of the population, depending on location(19,20) . As of March 13, 2010, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that in the United States 60 million people were infected with 2009 H1N1, resulting in 270,000 hospitalizations and 12,270 deaths(21). Overall mortality rate was less than 0.5%, and morbidity and mortality were predominant in young adults and less common for adults over 60 years old(22,23,24).
Influenza A subtypes H1N1 and H3N2 are still currently circulating in the human population(25) and are included in current vaccines(11).
HOST RANGE: Humans, swine, horses, domestic and wild avian species (predominantly ducks), geese, and shorebirds(1,2).
INFECTIOUS DOSE: Unknown for specific influenza A subtypes. The infectious dose for the influenza A variant, Influenza A2, is greater than 790 organisms via the nasopharyngeal route(26). Influenza A (subtype not specified) is more infectious by aerosol inhalation (50% human infectious dose (HID50) = 0.6 – 3.0 median tissue culture infectious doses (TCID50)) than by intranasal drop inoculation (HID50 = 127 – 320 TCID50)(27).
MODE OF TRANSMISSION: Transmission of influenza in humans can occur via respiratory infection by aerosols and droplets (from coughing and sneezing) or from contact transmission from contaminated surfaces(1,9,28). Closed environment and crowds favour transmission(1). Transmission of influenza virus from donors who are shedding large amounts of virus can be infective for 2 to 8 hours via stainless steel surfaces and for a few minutes via paper tissues(9,28,29).
INCUBATION PERIOD: Short, usually 1 to 3 days(1,16,28).
COMMUNICABILITY: Highly communicable. Infected persons can shed detectable amounts of influenza virus the day before symptoms begin(18,30). Adults usually shed the virus for 3 to 5 days, and up to 7 days in young children(18,28,30).
RESERVOIR: Humans are the principle reservoir of human influenza A viruses. The avian reservoir of influenza A viruses is wild birds, predominantly ducks, geese, and shorebirds. Animal reservoirs are suspected as sources of new human subtypes. Influenza A viruses are also frequently isolated in pigs and horses(31). Swine have been demonstrated to have receptors for both human and avian influenza viruses and as such are considered potential mixing vessel for human and avian viruses(31,32). This could result in a reassortment which may be infectious to man with antigenic characteristics for which the human population is immunologically naïve(31).
ZOONOSIS: Transmission from pigs to man has been demonstrated(33). There are documented cases of human infections with swine influenza viruses, and zoonotic infection may occur frequently in those involved directly or indirectly in swine farming; however, the illness is mild and person-to-person transmission is very limited(33). In the case of pandemic H1N1 influenza, the person-to-person transmission measured by basic reproduction number (R0) was almost the same (R0 = 1.4 to 1.6) as seasonal influenza (R0 = 0.9 to 2.1), and the disease may in a range from mild to acute(34,35).
DRUG SUSCEPTIBILITY: Seasonal influenza viruses are sensitive to the neuraminidase inhibitors oseltamivir (Tamiflu), and zanamivir (Relenza), and to amantadine, and rimantadine, which inhibit the M2 ion channel protein activity and block viral uncoating(36). The 2009 H1N1 virus is susceptible to neuraminidase inhibitors, including oseltamivir (Tamiflu) and zanamivir (Relenza), but usually resistant to amantadine and rimantadine(35,37,38,39). Sporadic instances of oseltamivir-resistant 2009 H1N1 viruses have been documented(22,35). Oseltamivir is licensed in Canada for treatment and post-expose prophylaxis, zanamivir for treatment alone, and amantadine for prophylaxis alone(40). Rimantadine is not currently licensed for use in Canada(40).
DRUG RESISTANCE: A significant increase in resistance to oseltamivur, adamantanes (amantadine, and rimantadine) has been observed recently(41).
SUSCEPTIBILITY TO DISINFECTANTS: Influenza A is susceptible to disinfectants, including sodium hypochlorite (freshly made 1:10 dilution of bleach), 60 to 95% ethanol, 2% alkaline glutaraldehyde, 5 to 8% formalin, and 5% phenol(42).
PHYSICAL INACTIVATION: Susceptible to moist heat at 121ºC for 20 minutes or dry heat at 170ºC for 1 hour, 160ºC for 2 hours, or 121ºC for at least 16 hours(42).
SURVIVAL OUTSIDE HOST: Influenza A virus can survive for 24 to 48 hours on hard, nonporous surfaces such as stainless steel and plastic and for approximately 8 to 12 hours on cloth, paper and tissues(29).
SURVEILLANCE: Monitor for symptoms of influenza(1,9). Confirm diagnosis with RT-PCR (favoured) or point-of-care testing and give appropriate antiviral treatment(43). Laboratory confirmation of the virus is not routinely performed, occurring only during an epidemic and consists of inoculating cell cultures with swabs or washings taken from the nose during the first days of illness(1).
FIRST AID/TREATMENT: Fluids and rest. Antiviral agents (mainly oseltamivir) can be employed to treat influenza A(11,12,16). Antibiotic treatment (in combination with antiviral treatment) may also be used to prevent or treat secondary bacterial pneumonia(12).
IMMUNIZATION: The most effective strategy for reducing the effect of influenza is through annual vaccination using a live, attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) or an inactivated influenza vaccine (TIV)(11). Both LAIV and TIV contain strains of influenza viruses that are antigenically equivalent to the annually recommended strains: 1 influenza A (H3N2) virus, 1 influenza A (H1N1) virus and 1 influenza B virus(11,40). Each year, one or more virus strain might be changed on the basis of global surveillance for influenza viruses and the spread of new strains(11). LAIV is administered intranasally by sprayer, whereas TIV is administered intramuscularly by injection. LAIV is currently approved only for use among healthy persons aged 5 to 49 years(11). During the 2009 H1N1 pandemic, an adjuvanted inactivated vaccine was developed by Glaxo Smith Kline (Pandemrix), which was authorized for use by the European Commission, with priority given to at risk populations, pregnant women, health care workers, and those in close contact with immunocompromised individuals(38). The FDA approved 4 vaccines against the novel 2009 H1N1 for use in the United States on September 15, 2009: inactivated vaccines manufactured by Sanofi Pasteur, Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics Limited, and CSL Limited; and a live attenuated intranasal vaccine manufactured by Medimmune LLC(36). In Canada an adjuvanted monovalent inactivated vaccine manufactuered by GlaxoSmithKline and an unadjuvanted inactivated vaccine (Panvax), manufactured by CSL Biotherapies, were approved for use by Health Canada during the 2009 H1N1 pandemic. A LAIV intranasal vaccine has also recently been approved for use in Canada(44).
PROPHYLAXIS: Vaccines are available for influenza A subtypes H1N1 and H3N2(11); however, chemoprophylactic drugs must not be overlooked in the control or prevention of influenza. Antiviral prophylaxis must be initiated within 3 days of the detected illness of the index cases to be effective in slowing transmission(16). Available drugs for prophylaxis are the neuraminidase inhibitors, zanamivir (10mg twice daily for 5 days) and oseltamivir (75mg once daily for 7 to 10 days)(11). The M2 inhibitor, amantadine can also be used for chemoprophylaxis during outbreaks of seasonal influenza.
LABORATORY-ACQUIRED INFECTIONS: Fifteen reported cases up to 1974(45). Animal- associated infections are not reported; however, risk is high from infected ferrets(46).
SOURCES/SPECIMENS: Respiratory tissues, human secretions, and infected animals. In addition, the virus may be present in the intestines and cloacae of infected avian species. Influenza A may be disseminated in multiple organs in infected animal species(47).
PRIMARY HAZARDS: Inhalation of virus from aerosols generated when aspirating, dispensing, or mixing virus-infected samples (tissues, faeces, secretions) from infected animals(47). Laboratory infection can also occur from direct inoculation of mucous membranes via virus contaminated gloves following the handling of tissues, faeces and/or secretions from infected animals(47).
SPECIAL HAZARDS: Genetic manipulation of virus has an unknown potential for altering host range, pathogenicity, and/or for introducing transmissible viruses with novel antigenic composition into humans(47).
RISK GROUP CLASSIFICATION: Risk Group 2(48). This risk group applies to the species as a whole, and may not apply to every strain.
CONTAINMENT REQUIREMENTS: Containment Level 2 facilities, equipment, and operational practices for work involving infectious or potentially infectious materials and cultures. These containment requirements apply to the species as a whole, and may not apply to each strain within the species. A detailed risk assessment should be conducted for activities involving animal work to determine whether additional operational practices should be considered.
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: For diagnostic work: Lab coat. Gloves when direct skin contact with infected materials or animals is unavoidable. Eyes protection must be used where there is a known or potential risk of exposure to splashes(49).
OTHER PRECAUTIONS: All procedures that may produce aerosols, or involve high concentrations or large volumes should be conducted in a biological safety cabinet (BSC). The use of needles, syringes, and other sharp objects should be strictly limited(49). Additional precautions should be considered with work involving animals or large scale activities(49).
SPILLS: Allow aerosols to settle and, wearing protective clothing, gently cover spill with paper towels and apply suitable disinfectant, starting at perimeter and working towards the centre. Allow sufficient contact time (30 minutes) and then clean the area(49).
DISPOSAL: Decontaminate before disposal by steam sterilization, chemical disinfection, or incineration(49).
STORAGE: In sealed containers that are appropriately labelled(49).

If you ever run into one of these your first thought will be to run for your life, it will look like something out of a bad dream. You'll never want to walk barefoot on your lawn again. Introducing the Florida Mole Crickets. If you see one of these, you'll probably never forget it. It's one of the most monstrous looking insects you'll ever see.
There are several species that have been inadvertently introduced to the us in the early 1900's and have been causing serious plant damage ever sense. The one we have to watch for in South Florida is the Southern Mole Cricket. Luckily populations have been diminishing since the 1980's thanks to a scientific intervention cutting populations 95%.
How do you know if you have Florida Mole Crickets? The southern mole cricket produces a calling song sounding like a low-pitched ringing trill at around 50 pulses per second. You will tend to hear them during the first two hours after sunset.
The crickets are known to cause damage to seedlings by feeding above ground on foliage or stem tissue and below ground on roots and tubers. Girdling of the stems on seedlings at the surface is a common injury to plants. Young plants are at times severed by the insect and pulled under ground to be devoured. Additional damage to young plants is created by the insect tunneling and dislodging seedlings causing them to die. Damage to Grasses vary in susceptibility to injury. Bahiagrass and Bermudagrass are especially susceptible to injury by Florida mole crickets.
If you happen to see an issue with your lawn, or your run into one of these beasts, let the crew at Sunlight Landscaping handle it for you. Just show them where you think it may be and …run!

ALS is a devastating disease that eats away at your central nervous system, leaving you mentally alert but increasingly incapacitated until you die. In the US, ALS is known as Lou Gehrig's Disease after the famous baseball player whose career was cut short because of the illness. We used this photograph of him, taken at a tribute ceremony upon his retirement, to help promote the disease for fundraising.

Q: Mounting a "Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted)" drive formatted in Lion on either Mac OS X Leopard or CentOS 6 I formatted a Seagate FreeAgent external hard drive on a system running OS X Lion (10.7) as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted)".  Everything works great on the Lion system.
However, when I try to mount the drive on a system running Mac OS X Leopard (10.5), it can't mount the drive; it complains that the drive cannot be read (I do not have the exact error message in front of me ATM).
I've also tried to mount the drive in my CentOS VM using the hfsplus module, but it can't find the HFS+ superblock.  I've mke2fs -n'd it to see if it can find an alternate superblock location, but none of the ones it found seem to work.
Is there a way to mount a drive formatted by an OS X Lion system as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted)" on a system running either Mac OS X Leopard or CentOS 6?

A: Unfortunately, Apple introduced a new technology called Core Storage to handle the new full disk encryption.  You can read about it in John Siracusa's review of OS X Lion.  This new type of volume cannot be read yet by other OS versions, but I'm sure some third party will eventually create some software that will enable reading these volumes on other operating systems.

Every day we interact with ourselves, each other, and land. Most of us have a relationship with a survey peg whether we like it or not. Most of us also interact or have some form of relationship with birds/manu. You are asked to participate in this evolving sculpture, which remembers the first peaceful protests of the past, the recognition of wrongdoing through the signing of a formal apology in 2017, and the little birds/manu that are symbols of a new dawn of peace, beauty and hope.

Connection to the land, the majesty of nature, and a fascination with themes universal to 'first nation' cultures; these are the greatest influences on Anton Forde's work. Forde began carving when he was 18 and studied art under such influential sculptors as Paul Dibble, Gary Whiting and Paul Hansen. The Māori Visual Arts Programme was being founded while he was at Massey University, serving to validate his chosen path. Twenty years after making a commitment to continue to study, Forde is completing his Masters of Māori Visual Arts. Forde has since spent periods living in his Nanna's (Taranaki- Ngati Ruanui) part of the country, with the majestic Maunga Taranaki ever-present, and in Ireland where he discovered ancient inspirational art themes.
Forde has exhibited both as a solo artist and as part of group exhibitions, in New Zealand, Ireland and in San Francisco. He has pieces in public and private collections in New Zealand and around the world. Forde is presently working on a number of public commissions and is the commissioned artist for a 14-metre-long waka installation outside the new Whitewater Wero Park in Manukau.

Borders General Hospital TV Appeal
Brother Mark Hay of Lodge Kelso & Tweed 58 was recently admitted to the Borders General Hospital after suffering a heart attack, from which he has now thankfully made a full recovery.
During his five days stay there were no visiting options, just Mark and the people he shared the ward with. There was no TV in the ward although he did have his smart phone for entertainment. On observing the situation, he realised that there are many people in the BGH long term who can't get visits or have no family. Some can't work a phone or don't have one at all. In many cases, the wards do not have a working TV so patients can't keep up with the outside world or even to have something to help pass the time!
An appeal was sent out to the freemasons of the Scottish Borders to support this project which raised a magnificent sum and £3700, with donations from the Provincial Grand Lodge of the Scottish Borders, the Provincial Grand Royal Arch Chapter of the Border Province and from Lodges, St John Melrose 1bis, St John Selkirk 32, Kelso & Tweed 58, St John Jedburgh 104 and the Hawick Lodge 111 and this added to that received from the general public made a grand total of £9000.
This has enabled TVs to be installed in 20 wards in the BGH as well as 8 wards in the Kelso Hospital and a further 2 heading for the Hawick Community Hospital. The project now has a surplus which will ensure that the equipment will be maintained for the foreseeable future.
This initiative will affect us all at some time in our lives and we record our grateful thanks to the Brethren and Companions of the Scottish Borders for their generosity and to Brother Mark for his initiative.
Collaborative Approach to Delivering Community Support
Kelso's Broomlands Primary School is located in the Heart of the Scottish Borders, providing an excellent education provision for about 250 young learners. Further to a survey conducted by some of the Primary 7 Pupils, it was found that the majority of pupils wanted to see improved play equipment in the playground and voted to have Playground Climbing Frame Apparatus and immediately started fundraising under the name of "Project Playground"
The School has an active Parent Council, a small team of dedicated and committed parents and volunteers to support the school and pupils. Fundraising is part of the Parent Council's remit, helping the school to purchase those nice to have items that the Local Authority is no longer able to provide, sadly, due to their program of fundraising activities being severely reduced because of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Crisis, they have been unable to contribute to Project Playground at a level they would normally have been able to do so.
Freemasons in the Borders became aware of the project and decided to help. The Borders Youth Support Scheme, a scheme operated by the Provincial Grand Lodge of the Scottish Borders, donated £250, Lodge Kelso & Tweed No. 58 donated £250 and The Lodge of Melrose St. John No. 1bis also assisted by donating £200. Representatives visited the School on 12 October 2021 to hand over the £700.
Pam Guthrie, joint Chairperson of the Parent Council was delighted by the generosity of the Masons and thanked them very much for their support.

Kelso & Tweed Supporting Guide Dogs UK
Lodge Kelso & Tweed 58 are delighted to support Cheryl and Guide Dogs UK.
Cheryl Marchbank is raising money for Guide Dogs and wheeled herself 5 miles in her manual wheel chair on 10th July 2021 from Hawick to Denholm with her guide dog Nala at her side. Our Right Worshipful Master Bro Mick Todd and Secretary Bro Tim Slater PM presented Cheryl with a cheque for £250.

A: Have you tried this ?
Server.HTMLEncode( sWeirdValue )

A: Have you tried to alter the way the server parses the character set ? I remember having to use: Response.CharSet = "windows-1252"
Also try to use the Codepage property on top of your script Response.CodePage = 1252
If this is not set, the page will be encoded by the server's default.

Codepage 65001 is used for utf-8 characterset, while i assume you will be needing the ANSI set here.
