New design organic fertilizer making machine is the most widely used in organic fertilizer granulation. Applications: animal manure, wet compost, green manure, sapropel & peat, cake fertilizer, farmyard manure, municipal solid waste, etc. It is specially used for organic and fermented fertilizer granulation and adapts to a variety of different formulations. Compressive resistance of organic fertilizer is higher than disc granulator's and rotary drum granulator's. the fertilizer granulation process saves drying process before granulation and significantly reduces manufacturing costs. This organic fertilizer granulator machine is used in mini new type organic fertilizer production line and 50,000 t/y organic fertilizer production line.
Why choosing new type organic fertilizer granulator machine?
New type organic fertilizer granulator, designed by Victor Fertilizer Granulator, is with reasonable structure and high automation. You can produce organic fertilizer granules without workers. Granulation rate reach to 99% and yield rate is 98% without return product. It does not affect the granulation of raw materials with high crude fiber content. It has low moisture while granulating. When you dry organic fertilizer pellets, it just needs proper temperature for drying. the fertilizer granulation process keeps beneficial microorganisms. In this way, it effectively ensures surviving amount of bacteria. It can be used for producing organic fertilizer, organic and compound fertilizer, bio organic fertilizer, compound microorganism organic fertilizer, humic fertilizer, etc.
1. The granulated particles are spherical.
2. Organic matter content can be as high as 100%, which achieves pure organic granulation.
3. Using a certain acting force, organic materials can grow up with each other. It do not need to add binder.
4. Granules are solid can be screened after granulation, reducing the energy consumption while drying pellets.
5. After the fermentation, organic matter can be directly granulated without drying and water content in raw materials can be 20-40%.
How to deal with agglomeration of new type organic fertilizer granulator granulation?
After purchasing organic fertilizer raw materials, the materials will agglomerate. According to market research shows that there is a certain degree of agglomeration problem either extrusion granulator granulation or new type organic granulator granulation. However, it should be qualified products without caking while packaging organic fertilizer pellets. How to solve the problem? Fan Way Fertilizer Machinery will introduce the organic fertilizer production solution for you.
Raw materials for the new organic fertilizer granulation process may be affected by manure storage and transportation. In addition, it is related to weather and other aspects. For example, the surface of raw materials will become wet in rainy day. And then it will be larger and expansive, resulting in a agglomeration. The reason why it agglomerates related to long-time storage and improper transportation.
After knowing the reason causes organic fertilizer pellets agglomeration, we can solve the problems easily. Using waterproof and breathable packing, organic fertilizer pellets are free from air and humidity effects. You can also use fertilizer drying machine to dry organic fertilizer pellets. And then use organic fertilizer coating machine to add coating process, so that the surface of each particle has a layer of special protective film, preventing the influence of outside air humidity to the finished product particles. In this way, we can better solve agglomeration problem.

AUGUSTA, Ga. (May 1, 2018) - New research published in Cancer Immunology Research by Drs. Esteban Celis and Hussein Sultan of the Georgia Cancer Center at Augusta University could serve as the stepping-stone in constructing vaccines with a greater likelihood of finding and attacking tumors in the human body.
"After administering peptide-based vaccines in mouse models of cancer, we saw that sustained IL2 signaling dramatically increased the number of tumor-specific cancer-killing T cells (CD8+)," said Dr. Hussein Sultan, a postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Celis, leader of the Center's Cancer Immunology, Inflammation and Tolerance Program.
During their experiments, Celis and Sultan noticed there was also an increase in the T cells' ability to resist cancer immune evasion caused by a protein called programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). It is well known that the PD-L1 protein can be produced by tumor cells, allowing them to evade destruction by the killer T cells.
"Together, these results substantially improved the antitumor efficacy of peptide-based vaccines in tumor-bearing mice," Sultan said.
Celis added, "In order to be effective, IL2 needed to be administered either as a complex of IL2 and anti-IL2 antibody, or in the form of polyethylene glycol-modified IL2 (PEG-IL-2). These formulations prolonged the half-life of IL2, allowing sustained activation of the IL2 receptor on vaccine-generated T cells, allowing them to survive longer in the body and attack the tumor."
"As we know, cancer cells are created when normal cells undergo certain mutations," Celis said. "So, they don't always look foreign to our immune system."
"Working on this research project was very rewarding and exciting," Sultan said. "I want to help the scientific community discover insights on how to use the body's immune system to fight this devastating disease."

Antrim fought back from five points down at half-time to earn a 2-21 to 2-12 win over Derry in Sunday's Division Two A Hurling League opener.
Six Ruairi Convery points helped Derry lead 1-8 to 0-6 at half-time with Gareth O'Kane netting on 16 minutes.
However, the Saffrons were ahead within 13 minutes of the restart after a goal from league debutant Donal Nugent.
Antrim moved seven ahead at one stage and Convery's injury-time goal was mere consolation for the Oak Leafers.
The game saw the Saffrons in Division Two action for the first time since 2003 after their annus horribilis last year when they suffered championship and league relegation.
A losing start looked in prospect for the Saffrons, under new manager PJ O'Mullan, as Derry led by five at the break.
Two long-range Convery frees gave Derry an early lead as Liam Watson, back to league duty after a four-year absence, was off target from a couple of placed balls.
Points from Ciaran Clarke and James Black did bring the Saffrons level but O'Kane's 13th-mninute goal helped Derry move into a 1-4 to 0-3 lead.
With Shane Farren contributing a couple of fine points, Derry moved five ahead by the interval but the game turned swiftly in Antrim's favour in the 13 minutes after half-time as the Saffrons hit an unanswered 1-4.
Nugent flicked a Kevin McKernan long ball to the net to put Antrim ahead for the first time in the 48th minute and with Conor Johnston, Clarke, McKernan and Saul McCaughran among the scorers, they moved into a 1-18 to 1-11 advantage with a couple of minutes left.
Convery's injury-time goal cut Antrim's lead to four but the Saffrons still had time to respond with three more points.
Meanwhile, Down edged out Armagh 2-16 to 2-14 in the Division Two B Ulster derby at the Athletic Grounds.
Three Danny Toner points helped Down take a 0-6 to 0-3 lead but Armagh responded with an unanswered 1-3 which was highlighted by John Corvan's goal.
However, Toner's goal just before half-time contributed to Down taking a 1-9 to 1-8 lead at the break.
Points from Conor Woods, Caolan Bailie and Scott Nicholson helped Down move four clear before a Woods' sideline puck flew directly into the net in the 57th minute to extend the Mourne County's advantage to 2-14 to 1-10.
Helped by Corvan's goal, Armagh outscored Down 1-4 to 0-2 in the closing stages but it proved too late for the home side.
Derry: D McDermott, E McGuckin, C McSorley, S McCullagh, D McCloskey, P Kelly, D O'Neill, O McCloskey, T McCloskey, J O'Dwyer, M McGuigan, G O'Kane, S Farren, R Convery, A Grant. Subs: C Gaile, M McGrath, B Quigley, B Douban, D Foley, B Laverty, J McCullagh, M Conway, N Farren, R Leonard, T Magee.

The NPS Lite scheme, which aims to provide pension to the economically weaker sections, has received a thunderous response, with almost 6 lakh accounts opened since its launch. "NPS-Lite Model" is designed to ensure ultra-low administrative and transactional costs, so as to make such small investments viable. NPS-Lite works on a "group" model. It also aims at harnessing the outreach and capacity of the Government operated schemes, NGOs, MFIs, NBFCs etc. in targeting and servicing the old age savings needs of low income workers. While the NPS is managing assets worth over Rs 8,000 crore, almost 99% of this is the Central and state government pension accounts. The total assets of the 47,000-odd voluntary investors amount to less than Rs 80 crore. Serious investors are still not interested in the NPS. The scheme has not managed to rope in even 0.1% of the 50 million voluntary investors it was expected to attract.
Why NPS an attractive option of Investment?
The entry costs of the NPS are also very low. The NPS is arguably the cheapest investment option in the market. The scheme charges Rs 9 a year for managing a corpus of Rs 1 lakh. Yes, there is also a Rs 350 charged every year for the Permanent Retirement Account Number but the total cost is still lower than the Rs 1,500-2,250 charged by mutual funds and Rs 1,500 charged by Ulips. Over the long term, this difference in the recurring charge can lead to a huge difference in the returns for the investor.
Switching Between fund managers : There are six fund managers handling the investments in NPS. Unlike a mutual fund or a Ulip, the NPS offers the investor to switch from one fund manager to another if he is not satisfied with the performance of a certain fund. Withdrawing from one fund and investing in another will not have any tax implication because the money remains invested.
More tax benefits : From the next financial year, contributions by employers to the NPS accounts of their employees can be deducted as a business expense. Currently, the contribution made by an employer to the NPS is not allowed as a deduction. Also, such contributions will not be part of the Rs 1 lakh tax deduction limit under Section 80C. Since contributions to NPS are not taxable, your employer's contribution on your behalf will be a tax free benefit for you.
Exposure in equities : Maximum exposure to equities is limited to 50% and that too in Nifty-based stocks in the same proportion. The funds are also supposed not to invest in bonds below the AA rating. But some funds are apparently breaking the rules and investing in riskier BBB-rated paper to boost returns.
Less attractive to sell : Since the commission for NPS is very marginal,fund managers are less attractive in selling the product.
Compulsary withdrawal : Contributions stop and withdrawals begin at 60 and you have to compulsorily withdraw the entire amount by the time you are 70. Such a condition can pose a problem to a person who plans to stop working at age 65 and expects to live till 75-80 years.
It will be applicable to all citizens in the unorganised sector who join the New Pension System. Under the scheme, Government will contribute Rs. 1000 per year to each NPS account opened in the year 2010-11 and for the next three years, that is, 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-14. The benefit will be available only to persons who join the NPS with a minimum contribution of Rs. 1,000 and maximum contribution of Rs. 12,000 per annum. The exit from the Swavalamban Scheme would be on the same terms and conditions on which exit from Tier-I account of NPS is permitted, that is, exit at age 60 with 40% minimum annuitisation of pension wealth and exit before age 60 with 80% minimum annuitisation of pension wealth. However, the exit would be subject to the overriding condition that the amount of pension wealth to be annuitised should be sufficient to yield a minimum amount of Rs. 1,000 per month.

Coop Career Spans 44 Years
Rex McKinney
Rex McKinney is widely recognized as an innovator and a leader whose influence on the U.S. cotton industry will not be soon forgotten. His willingness to lend a helping hand to any gin in a time of need parallels his goal of continually promoting service.
"Rex is someone who goes above and beyond the call of duty. He always wants to do more for the producers by helping in every aspect of the ginning process," says Dan Martin, former manager of Field Services at Plains Cotton Cooperative Association. "He may appear to be low profile, but he's one of the smartest men in the industry."
After serving as president and manager of Farmers Cooperative Compress (FCC) since 1973, McKinney retires this summer. His innovative methods throughout the years made the compress highly efficient, and today it is the world's largest inland cotton storage warehouse that can break out and load up to 12,000 bales of cotton per day. Throughout his 44 years of experience, McKinney has witnessed and instigated many changes at FCC and in the cotton industry.
McKinney became a full-time employee in 1953 and watched as FCC went from a cotton yard to a warehouse operation. He saw tremendous growth as buildings were constructed to meet the demands of farmers using Commodity Credit Corporation loans.
When cotton was ginned as flat bales, warehouses were responsible for compressing bales to standard density with a 28-inch width as required by U.S. mills or a high density 20-inch width necessary for a steamship to transport cotton to a foreign mill. In the early 1970s, McKinney was a leader in the movement toward universal density (UD) compression, which was a compromise width of 24 inches. U.S. and foreign mills agreed to the adjusted compression, and by approximately 1973 UD presses were being installed at gins, making compression at the warehouse unnecessary.
"UD presses at the gin allowed for a greater storage capacity at the warehouse and made the delivery of cotton faster," McKinney says. "All gins associated with FCC now utilize UD presses."
Another change McKinney credits for shaping the industry is the current moduling system that began in the 1970s. It has revolutionized the concept of harvesting and immediately delivering the cotton to the closest gin. With the module builder, producers are able to leave seed cotton in the field and deliver it later to a gin of their choice.
"The moduling system made the idea of a neighborhood gin diminish. Now there are fewer, larger gins growers can use," McKinney explains, and greater volume usually results in lower ginning costs.
McKinney has seen the cotton industry endure many challenges, but he feels overcoming the reputation that West Texas produces low quality cotton has been one of the greatest.
"In 1983, farmers began funding, through the Plains Cotton Improvement Program, 10 cents a bale for seed breeding to improve cotton quality, and through the years quality has improved tremendously," McKinney says. "Producers in West Texas can no longer be accused of growing poor quality cotton because we have quality cotton that textile mills recognize and use."
For the future, McKinney predicts a growth in coop volume and believes many acres currently in CRP will be placed in crops such as cotton. More farmers will choose to grow cotton since it takes less water, he adds.
"The only negative I foresee is the boll weevil. We need to find ways for organized boll weevil control, but the key is that growers must agree on a particular method," McKinney comments.
McKinney has been involved in various leadership roles and received many awards for his past contributions to the industry.
He was president of the Cotton Growers Warehouse Association and president of the Texas Federation of Cooperatives (now known as the Texas Agricultural Cooperative Council). He was the 1990 recipient of the Texas Agricultural Cooperative Council's (TACC) Cooperator of the Year Award, the 1993 recipient of the Texas Tech Outstanding Agriculturist Award and received the TACC Distinguished Service Award this past March.
One of McKinney's greatest attributes is in the area of financial accomplishments. The financial strength of the compress and the returns it has paid back to nearly 10,000 producer-members has been phenomenal.
"I have never understood how a grower could fail to take advantage of a coop situation where he receives all of the savings," McKinney says. "A grower has the opportunity to really take control of a coop and receive the benefits."
With the changes and challenges, the cotton industry has survived and thrived, in part, because of managers like Rex McKinney. There are more producers and coops still in business today because of this coop leader.
"It's been enjoyable to work for the cotton growers. They are good people to work for, but now I plan to do nothing, and I won't start that until noon everyday," McKinney adds with a laugh.

Plan for training and retraining of the Republic of Belarus for 2016
The Department of Epidemiology and Microbiology was founded in 1935, when there had been organized a special course of postgraduate training for specialists on the specialty of epidemiology and microbiology. For a long time the only teacher of this course had been I.S.Rubenstein, who in 1941 defended Candidate's thesis on the topic «Influence of clarification and concentration of antitoxic serum on allergy», and in 1947 he got a title of professor. Classes were held at City Tuberculosis Dispensary.
In 1951 the course was transformed into a separate department, which was based at City Sanitary and Epidemiological Station. From 1951 to 1969 the department was headed by I. S. Rubinstein. From 1955 G.Y.Vileichik, Candidate of Medical Sciences, had worked as an assistant. Since 1972 until her retirement in 1979 she worked as an Associate Professor at the department. In 1958 E.A.Lomonosova, Candidate of Medical Sciences, started to work at the department, who had been working at the department for 35 years.
Until 1969 there had been courses on specialization and advanced training in epidemiology and microbiology with the duration of 3-4 months at the department.
From December, 1969 until 1986 the department was headed by Doctor of Medical Sciences, professor N. I. Valvachev, a graduate of Leningrad Military Medical Academy. From this time, for the first time in the USSR, the department started to study epidemiology of hospital-acquired infections in surgical and obstetrical hospitals: determination of frequency and reasons of staphylococcal carriage in nasopharyngeal cavity of medical staff, characteristics of biological properties of staphylococci, study of epidemiological value of separate factors of staphylococci carry-over, clinical and microbiological aspects of hematogenous osteomyelitis in children.
Since 1973 there had been courses in separate parts of epidemiology and microbiology, which since the 80-ies had become more prevailing in training curricula of the department.
From 1979 A.A.Kukulyanski had been working as a senior teacher at the department, since 1984 he worked as an Associate Professor at the department. From 1986 to 1998 he headed the department. Having a great experience in teaching at the department of Microbiology of Minsk Medical University, А. А. Kukulyanski significantly had improved the teaching process in microbiology. Due to his efforts there had been created a material base, which helped to give classes on modern methods of sensitivity determination of bacteria to antibiotics, determination of bacterial plasmids, cultivating of anaerobe bacteria. А. А. Kukulyanski implemented tests for knowledge evaluation of physicians, developed a project of unified program of postgraduate advancement in microbiology.
In 1979 A.D.Sokolovskaya, Candidate of Medical Sciences, was appointed to the post of a senior teacher, who from 1988 to 1998 was working as an Associate Professor. She is a prominent specialist in the field of immunoprophylaxis, she organized and conducted advanced training courses on immunology and immunoprophylaxis of infectious diseases, developed an academic base for these courses. A.D.Sokolovskaya paid a great attention to practical classes on microbiology. On her initiative devices had been purchased, after this, courses on laboratory diagnostics of anaerobes and urogenital tract diseases (clamidiosis) were conducted.
From 1985 to 1990 G.R.Aksenenko, Doctor of Medical Sciences, professor, worked at the department. He had a great practical experience not only of a military epidemiologist in the area of highly infectious diseases, but also as a teacher of the Department of Military Epidemiology and Hygiene in Tomsk, Kuibyshev; he organized lectures on epidemiology of the most dangerous infections and also on general immunology.
From 1951 to 1972 the department was based at Minsk City Center of Hygiene and Epidemiology; from 1972 to 1985 it was based at administration building of BelMAPE; from 1985 until the present the department has been situated at academic and laboratory building of Scientific and Research Laboratory in Lesnoy village of Minsk region, which has a lot of additional rooms for organization and holding of lectures.
Since 1987 S.G.Maslovsky, Candidate of Medical Sciences, had been working at the department as a senior teacher. Being a specialist in the field of medical virology, he created an academic base for teaching of laboratory diagnostics, HIV-infection. Ministry of Health of USSR equipped the department with devices for enzyme-linked coagulation assay.
In 1987 V.V.Suschevich started to work at the department, who worked as a senior laboratory assistant, and from 1990 to 1999 he worked as a senior teacher on the course of epidemiology.
During 10 years, from 1989 to 1999 V.P.Anlipenko, Candidate of Medical Sciences, worked as a senior teacher at the department, from 1996 he had been working as an Associate Professor at the Course of Microbiology. He gave classes on clinical and sanitary microbiology.
In 1998 the department was headed by Doctor of Medical Sciences, professor М. I. Rimzha. Main changes were connected with the issues of conduction of practical classes, either on epidemiology, or on microbiology. During the classes a special attention was given to mastering of practical skills and abilities. To achieve this goal there had been prepared a number of case problems connected with all types of infections. On the basis of primary documentations physicians by themselves carry out epidemiological analysis, make and substantiate hypothesis, make epidemiological diagnosis. Besides, while resolving a problem case they apply acquired knowledge legally substantiating it, they also apply adequate statistical methods for substantiation of a conclusion.
During 1998-2004 the department staff was enriched with young specialists — senior teachers О. V. Tonko, О.N. Khanenko and N.D. Shmeleva, who successfully combined scientific and pedagogical activities.
In 2007 О.V.Tonko successfully defended Candidate's thesis on the specialty «epidemiology» under supervision of М.I.Rimzha.

Now isn't this a surprise?
Transgender person accused of rape is remanded into female prison and sexually assaults inmates within days
Will you look at that? The use of "person"
The prison service has apologised after a transgender inmate, charged with raping a woman, sexually assaulted four fellow inmates just days after being remanded into an all female jail.
Convicted paedophile Karen White, who was born Stephen Wood, was undergoing gender reassignment, but had not undergone full surgery, when she was accused of repeatedly raping a woman in 2016.
The 52-year-old, who had been previously been jailed in 2001 for a sex attack on a child, told the authorities she identified as a woman and was remanded into HMP New Hall near Wakefield, West Yorkshire.
But within days of arriving at the women-only prison in September last year, White made a sexual advance to another inmate, while in an aroused state.
A fortnight later, White approached another female inmate and struck up a conversation in which she made comments about oral sex.
Doesn't everyone realise how damaging it is to not recognise pronouns of choice?
previousApparently capitalists like depressions
nextHow does this work then?

No such thing as transgender. A criminal bloke says he is a woman and they effectively put him where he can sexually assault real women.

I hope the raped inmate gets a shark of a lawyer and sues the prison into the ground for H&S breaches..
Even if we, the taxpayer, end up paying it.
I'm not logging on to the Trashgraph but can anyone who has read the full article say if this goop's "sex assaults" were actual..you know…assaults or is he just accused of asking women for a shag. Which depending on how he went about it may not constitute "assault" at all.
It is early in the AM and I read the "assault" bit and let it play without thinking about it. But if all the idiot did is ask then the caper is shite in both directions.
A male should not be in a woman's prison his ludicrous syrup not withstanding. That is wrong. It is also wrong to label his asking for a voluntary shag as a "sexual assault". If he asked and they said No and that was it he has NOT committed a crime. He should not be in a woman's nick but that wrong is on the so-called "authorities" who are infected with CM shite. They could have correctly chosen to meet his "I'm a woman" nonsense with a bored "Yeah right mate" as they locked his cell door at night . That they chose to suck Marxian dick is their problem not his.
A pox on all of them.
@Mr Ecks: I would consult the 'Guardian' or the 'Independent', but strangely….they don't seem to be carrying this story. Odd that.

As I read the first part of your first comment I was already bemoaning what you then said.
When any public body fucks up, no-one working for it suffers the consequence. They never lose financially, rarely in terms of career.
The public body fucks us over and when someone sues, we get fucked over again.

@Mr Ecks – The Sun to the rescue – it appears to be 'PiV assault':
https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/7197153/transgender-rapist-women-inmates-in-jail/
But we can now reveal she had been charged with three rapes of the same woman between February and December 2016.
White denied them, claiming she had erectile dysfunction, and was remanded in custody.
While at New Hall, West Yorks, White was also charged with a 2003 rape.
NiV September 7, 2018 at 11:13 am
"I'm not logging on to the Trashgraph but can anyone who has read the full article say if this goop's "sex assaults" were actual..you know…assaults or is he just accused of asking women for a shag."
Prosecutor Charlotte Dangerfield told the court the first assault in September happened when White stood close to another inmate, touched her arm and exposed herself.
For the second assault she made 'inappropriate comments about oral sex' and put the woman's hand on the 'defendant's left breast' so she could feel her padded bra.
Miss Dangerfield said the third alleged assault involved White pushing herself indecently against another prisoner, and on the fourth incident she allegedly kissed an inmate on the neck.
However, he/she pleaded guilty to the rapes that resulted in him/her being remanded in custody. It's not clear whether he/she actually was transgender. According to the article:
She began identifying as a woman in 2014, but friends told the Sun she was not diagnosed with gender dysphoria – and was a drag artist, rather than transgender.

One would almost think that the "identifying as a woman" bit was merely a flag of convenience. A male rapist who likes a bit of dress up gets remanded to a woman's prison. What could possibly go wrong?
Yet, when we point out the folly of all this, we get reams of hyperlinks from Violet Elizabeth NiV to tell us how horrid we all are.

Henry Crun: "Yet, when we point out the folly of all this, we get reams of hyperlinks from Violet Elizabeth NiV to tell us how horrid we all are."
I think NiV's (rather uncharacteristically short) comment is angling to use the 'no true Scotsman' defence in this case.
*gets popcorn*
MC September 7, 2018 at 12:13 pm
Locking fox in henhouse goes wrong; shocker….
NiV September 7, 2018 at 12:22 pm
"One would almost think that the "identifying as a woman" bit was merely a flag of convenience."
In this case it possibly was. But we've discussed this before – whether they're TG or not is entirely irrelevant. The critical requirement is to conduct a risk assessment to keep all prisoners safe, whether male, female, or in between.
Men routinely get raped in prison by other men. Nobody does anything about it. Nobody cares. Tim doesn't post articles about it three times a week.
Because nobody actually gives a fuck about people getting raped or sexually assaulted in prison – the only reason this story hit the radar is because a (maybe) TG was involved, and it sounds like a good excuse/justification to complain about TGs.
Virtually all rapists are cisgender men. Virtually all the people who sexually assault and rape men are themselves cisgender men. Should they therefore be sent to a prison full of their victim group? Which happens more often – men-on-men in male prisons or TGs in women's prisons? Which is the bigger and more urgent problem to address? Why don't you?
I think the answer to that final question pretty obvious. But as you say, we've gone through all of this before, and you already know everything I'm going to say.
I wasn't defending it. TGs are like everyone else – some people are criminals. I only added the bit about the uncertainty to explain why I was using "he/she" instead of simply "she".
PJF September 7, 2018 at 12:50 pm
I only added the bit about the uncertainty to explain why I was using "he/she" instead of simply "she".
But why the uncertainty, NiV? The person has now identified as female so they've (according to your long explanations) been female all along. Unless there's a type of sudden onset transgender sysndrome you haven't detailed to us yet.
JuliaM September 7, 2018 at 1:15 pm
PJF took the words right out of my keyboard!
*settles in with more popcorn to await NiV's return with that shovel*
NiV September 7, 2018 at 1:21 pm
"The person has now identified as female so they've (according to your long explanations) been female all along."
According to my long explanation, whether someone is mentally male or female is objectively determined by brain structure set as it develops in the womb. The easiest way to determine whether this applies is to ask them, and in most circumstances the incentive is far greater to hide it than to falsely claim it. That doesn't mean people cannot lie about their gender identity. Clearly they do – people have claimed to be cisgender for many years when they're not.
Whether somebody likes the taste of grapefruit is an objective fact, that you can most easily find out about by simply asking them. And for most people, it makes no sense to say you like it if you don't, because then you'll get given it for breakfast. However, that doesn't mean that nobody could.
However, if someone repeatedly and insistently tells you they really don't like the taste of grapefruit, and you serve them grapefruit for breakfast anyway because you don't believe it's physically possible for anyone not to like grapefruit and don't see that simply claiming not to like it is sufficient to overturn reality this way, their complaint is likely to be considered justified. Yes, it's possible that they're lying. But it's conventional to take people's word for it on their likes when serving them breakfast.
Is that explanation long enough?
Jim September 7, 2018 at 1:33 pm
"But why the uncertainty, NiV? The person has now identified as female so they've (according to your long explanations) been female all along."
Yes they've got one of those female brains in a man's body, that brains scans can identify, you know the ones that NiV keeps telling us about, the ones that 'prove' transgenders aren't either liars or mentally ill……….which if true I don't think anyone would have a problem with really – if you think you're women when you've got mens dangly bits, toddle off, get one of these scans that proves what you say is true, then you can be treated as a woman. If your scan comes back as a perfectly standard male brain, then hard luck you're a bloke, a nutter most likely, or maybe a liar on the make, but you don't get to be called a women.
But of course NiV won't accept that, everyone has to be able to self identify, even if it means rapists get put into female prisons. And I suspect also because such a scanning filter would prove without a doubt that the vast majority of transgenders are not female brains trapped in male bodies, but mentally ill men.
PJF September 7, 2018 at 1:43 pm
Not long enough to explain your uncertainty. Person identifies as "mentally female". You say (discounting liars) it's due to brain structure so they've always been "mentally female".
So what's causing your uncertainty? Grapefruit?
Gamecock September 7, 2018 at 1:46 pm
'Convicted paedophile Karen White, who was born Stephen Wood, was undergoing gender reassignment, but had not undergone full surgery, when she was accused of repeatedly raping a woman in 2016.'
She? I would say the Telegraph is an accessory to the crime.
NiV: "Is that explanation long enough?"
By your usual standards? Nope, not even close. Are you unwell?
"Person identifies as "mentally female"."
They say they do.
"You say (discounting liars) it's due to brain structure so they've always been "mentally female"."
If they're not lying, then yes it would always have been true.
The reports of people who knew the person and made the distinction.
I'd normally take their word for it if someone said they didn't like grapefruit, but if their brother interjects saying "But he used to eat grapefruit all the time back at home", I might question it. Wouldn't you?
"Are you unwell?"
Thank you for expressing your concern! That's very kind of you!
Would you believe me if I said I identified as "well"? 🙂
So if someone identifies as "mentally female" today you would doubt their claim because their sibling remembers having a brother for many years? People down the street remember a boy in shorts?
bloke in spain September 7, 2018 at 2:22 pm
Do we recognise the term "cisgender" here? I thought the consensus was there are men & there are women & for practical purposes, nowt else. The naming of something being in the remit of the namer, not the whim of the named.
So, NiV, take your cisgender & stick it where the sun shinest not.
"Would you believe me if I said I identified as 'well'?"
I'd definitely clear it with Napoleon first.
Dennis the Peasant September 7, 2018 at 2:32 pm
Good to see that the wogs running the prisons in the UK are just about as competent as the wogs running the police forces in the UK. You bastards are consistent, if nothing else.
No, because that's not evidence regarding the brain, only the body.
I might do if they'd been given the opportunity to play with dolls and wear dresses without penalty, and turned it down.
"Do we recognise the term "cisgender" here?"
Where is "here" in this sentence?
The comments section of this blog? The medical and legal professions? The UK? The English-speaking world?
"The naming of something being in the remit of the namer, not the whim of the named."
Which in this case was me, yes? I named you 'cisgender' – so you as the 'named' don't get to object, right? That's what you're implying, isn't it?
The generally accepted meaning of words is normally negotiated jointly by the whole of society. Check the dictionaries. But you can always take Humpty Dumpty's approach…
Obviously, in the comments section of this blog. What happens in the madness of the rest of the world is it's problem. The medical & legal professions? FFS!
But here,where sanity prevails, we concluded that whilst "trannie" is a word. Signifying a man who likes to pretend he's a woman. Sometimes with the aid of surgical intervention. "Transgender" isn't. Because it's impossible to migrate from one gender to the other. Therefore "transgender " is a logical fallacy. A name for something that does not exist. And therefore belongs, along with unicorns, as mythical beasts. We do not discuss stabling requirements & fees for unicorns because the subject never arises.
Baron Jackfield September 7, 2018 at 3:32 pm
I cannot comprehend the sheer barking idiocy of committing a person equiped with full, functional M & 2V to a women's prison, regardless of his/her claims to be a girlie… If he's in posession of "the bits" he should be imprisoned with all the other owners of similar equipment.
As to NiV's concerns over the amount of male/male rape in prison – it is indeed a major problem but not one that is trivially easy to solve – unlike the complete and utter simplicity of not sending blokes to women's prisons.
Ah, but the conflating of the two serves to muddy the waters.
Does this story describe what you would call a simple solution to the problem? Would you want to claim the outcome described wasn't perfectly predictable? Or that you think it's more acceptable?
Ah, but I'm objecting to you conflating the two! It's the same 'Group A Group B trick' you always pull when this topic comes up.

"sexually assaults inmates within days"
I'm can't read the article, but is there more than 'struck up a conversation and talked about oral sex' or 'made a sexual advance on another inmate while in an aroused state'.
Because neither of those is actually sexual assault.
You, NiV, raised the topic of male/male prison rape. No one else mentioned it or seemed to see a connection.
And you, NiV are the one obsessing over groups. No one else is. They see men & women. Male & female. Not groups you can wander from one to the other when the mood takes you.
If one rejects the concept of transexuality, the whole subject disappears & we get a quiet & uncomplicated life.
There's a little more detail in my 11:13 am comment above, but not really enough to tell what the circumstances were.
The issue is rape and sexual assault in prison. Whether either the perpetrator or victim is male, female, or TG is utterly irrelevant. The aim is to prevent sexual assaults in prison, on anybody, by anybody. Don't muddy the waters by mixing up any other characteristic of those involved, or only picking up on some cases and not others, depending on the identity politics of the other groups they belong to.
Yes, it does, doesn't it? Male-on-male rape?: don't care, not interested. Male-on-TG rape?: don't care, not interested. Total quiet. The subject disappears.
Like magic.
Mr Ecks September 7, 2018 at 5:31 pm
NiV–As far as any sense can be made of the article you link to–it seems to be claiming that women who delude themselves that they are men and get sent to a man's prison–which they presumably wanted–have a very bad time there. Not rocket science nor a deduction that anyone with the brains of a gnat could not have made–long before time–for themselves.
Here's a thought then–they should keep fucking quiet about their mental problems until released and then do their thing.
Ps –There is no male on TG rape because there are no TGs.
Rape exists either ordinary or sodomitic but no TG's are involved. The mentally ill certainly but no TGs.
As for sodomitic abuse the indifference exists at the official level. It isn't left-trendy see but the TG bullshit is .
For us ordinary folks the problem is that the world abounds in evils –we have not time, resources or life to stop or even fight against them all. I have various commitments including my attempts to save this nation and counter the scummy state and the even scummier EU. I don't have time or life to run an anti-jailhouse sodomitic abuse campaign. If someone else does I could certainly contribute and possibly help. But then so could you NiV . However you still have only 24/7 the same as the rest of us don't you. So you whinge like the rest and don't act.`
"…but not really enough to tell what the circumstances were."
So it's just she said, she said?
"The issue is rape and sexual assault in prison."
No it isn't, that's the issue you're trying to divert the conversation onto.
The issue (see Tim's post above) is the prison authorities kowtowing to political madrectness and putting male sex offenders into women's prisons and exposing the female inmates to dangers they wouldn't otherwise face.
And NiV, you've dodged and you've danced but you still haven't justified your he/she comments above.
MC September 7, 2018 at 6:04 pm
one of those female brains in a man's body, that brains scans can identify
Not a real thing; 21st century phrenology.
Diagnosis of trannies is the doctor's verdict after speaking to them ie the strength of commitment/derangement demonstrated.
Amusing. 🙂
I don't know – there may have been evidence. All I was thinking was that I recall numerous occasions when women stood close to me, touched me on the arm, and leaned forwards to expose their cleavage. Have I been sexually assaulted?
Context is relevant, and without seeing the evidence all we can do is speculate. I don't suppose Karen was very popular with the other inmates – whose interpretation of events are we hearing?
That's how *you* interpret it.
But until you brought it up, no one mentioned male on male rape. We'll include TG rape in that, since there's no such thing as a trans-girl. The subject was whether a bloke pretending to be a woman should be put in a women's prison. Or, to put it another way, should the authorities be as mental as the prisoner? If they weren't putting men pretending to be women in women's prisons then they wouldn't be sexually assaulting real women & we wouldn't be confronted with the problem. Thing's would indeed be quieter.
"But until you brought it up, no one mentioned male on male rape."
I know. Only you are making the distinction.
Well, yeah. You don't get male on male rape in women's prisons.
"Well, yeah. You don't get male on male rape in women's prisons. Yet."
Rape and sexual assault is already a problem in women's prisons, too.
And sexism doesn't stop at the prison walls. Females are still at risk of abuse and rape and unfortunately because they are inmates there is often no legal remedy available for them to seek justice. The word of a prisoner is hardly ever believed. I have sat in on adjudications where to me it was clear that the prison officer is lying but the governor will always rule in their favour. So keeping on the right side of officers is paramount for survival. Many of these women have been abused or have mental health issues and they are vulnerable.
Sexual assault is sexual assault – whoever the perpetrator is, whoever the victim is. As soon as you start caring about some cases and not others, depending on the identity-politics of those involved, you make it clear that it's not the sexual assault you care about.
If Tim starts putting up some posts on the sheer insanity of allowing male prison guards into a women's prison for you all to express similar outrage over, I might reconsider. Otherwise, you make it perfectly clear that it's not rape you care about, not the welfare of prisoners, not even the welfare of women prisoners. The only thing you're interested in here is the transgender connection, and your 'identity politics' games.
That's how anyone who can read and comprehend, and has the social skills to notice sarcasm and humour, will interpret Tim's post.
Provided, that is, they aren't encumbered with a mindset that inclines them think to society should take seriously people who claim to be Napoleon.
Dave C September 7, 2018 at 10:22 pm
But the text has "made a sexual advance to another inmate, while in an aroused state" and "approached another female inmate and struck up a conversation in which she made comments about oral sex."
Which of those is the assault?
"If Tim starts putting up some posts on the sheer insanity of allowing male prison guards into a women's prison for you all to express similar outrage over, I might reconsider."
But since you are unable to distinguish between a male prison guard and
– a convicted paedophile / admitted multiple rapist –
you most likely would not reconsider.
"The only thing you're interested in here is the transgender connection, and your 'identity politics' games.."
It's the transgender bollocks and the identity politics games of people like you that put this sick bastard amongst captive women, so that's our main interest here. But not the only interest; another is taking the piss out of you.
BniC September 7, 2018 at 11:20 pm
I would think that discrimination laws would mean you can't have all female officers at a woman's prison and likewise all male officers at a male prison.
Leaving that aside as mentioned sexual assault can be male to male or female to female anyway so you wouldn't eliminate it anyway.
BiBC September 7, 2018 at 11:27 pm
Regarding all rape being by cisgender men the article itself refutes that as a non-cisgender committed rape or maybe he/she was being fluid that day.
Mind you if the definition of rape is still penetrative sex (involving a penis) then it's not suprising that all the convicted people had a penis is it.
bloke in spain September 8, 2018 at 12:05 am
"As soon as you start caring about some cases and not others, depending on the identity-politics of those involved, you make it clear that it's not the sexual assault you care about."
As far as I can see, you're the one bringing identity politics into the discussion. No one here seems to consider that a bloke who prefers to pretend to be a woman has any other identity than a bloke. That's not a political identity. That's a biological identity. And TimW's post concerned sexual assaults by a bloke stuck by the damn-fool authorities in a women's prison. Of course we don't show particularly care about sexual assaults that don't involve a bloke pretending to be a woman on real women. They weren't the topic of the post. Maybe we'll deal with them another day.
If you wish to wander OT you're on your own.

Baron Jackfield September 8, 2018 at 11:49 am
@NiV: September 7, 2018 at 4:26 pm
"She" – physically male – was correctly sent to a male prison. However, because of his partially female appearance (ie breasts etc) he should have been properly segregated for his own safety.
The prison system appears in this case to have been inept or utterly callous (probably both), so the outcome was unfortunately predictable. However, one is tempted to theorise that his situation was probabl;y not much different from that which would have been suffered by a small, "pretty" male. This does not make it acceptable.
"But since you are unable to distinguish between a male prison guard and – a convicted paedophile / admitted multiple rapist – you most likely would not reconsider."
If your complaint had been simply that they had put "a convicted paedophile / admitted multiple rapist" in a women's prison, I'd have had no objection. If you put the argument in those terms, I'd be very happy to reconsider!
Ah, that feminist anti-discrimination law introduced as a result of politically correct identity politics? Yes. Good point.
Agreed. It would take more than just banning some particular groups of people from the site. You'd need to introduce close supervision and monitoring, and processes for making sure complaints can be safely made and properly investigated. Stuff we should be doing anyway. You could never eliminate it all, but we could do a hell of a lot better job than we do.
"Regarding all rape being by cisgender men the article itself refutes that"
That's why I used the word "virtually". I did use the word "virtually", didn't I? Maybe I forgot?
"As far as I can see, you're the one bringing identity politics into the discussion. No one here seems to consider that a bloke who prefers to pretend to be a woman has any other identity than a bloke."
That second sentence is pure identity politics. There is a political war going on between two ideological groups over TGs, one whose political position is that they should be treated as women, the other claiming that they're just pretending. And at the very mention of the word "transgender" you can't help dragging it in and seeing everything in terms of supporting or opposing your position in the political fight.
The problem is simply assaults in prison – we do not favour any particular classes of victim or perpetrator. Men are as worthy of protection as women. The authorities are supposed to conduct a risk assessment when deciding where to put someone and with what security measures in place. They need to consider whether prisoners are especially likely to commit particular crimes, and whether prisoners are especially likely to fall victim to particular crimes.
Simply being male is not enough to class you as a potential sex offender who should not be allowed near women, or that would apply to male prison guards too. Being a convicted sex offender who is on remand accused of multiple rapes probably should. Being transgender means you would be at extra risk of being attacked, or falsely accused. And sex offenders (whether accused or convicted) are notoriously at risk of being assaulted by other prisoners. So such a prisoner should be segregated from other prisoners with more security and monitoring to prevent incidents; should be warned of the risks, both to their prospects in court if they do anything extra, and of the risks of false accusations and assaults, so to steer well clear of the other inmates. The authorities clearly failed to do so, and they apologied for that. (But then, they're constantly failing anyway – witness all the talk of prison rape – and so this case is only one out of hundreds of cases.)
My objection here is the Group A Group B trick. Group B is "rapists and sex offenders". Group A is "anyone with male genitals". That they are an alleged rapist and a convicted sex offender is relevant. That they've got male genitals is not. Most men are perfectly safe and harmless if left around women – more so than some other women.
The idea that all men are potential rapists that by their nature need to be subjected to extra security measures is not a precedent you want to set! Just imagine what the SJWs could justify doing with a principle like that!
"When I see 60+ comments I know without clicking that NiV is involved. I wonder if he is really Tim in disguise trying to get his page count up?"
I'm sure Tim posts on it as frequently as he does for precisely that purpose! But I'd point out it takes two to tango – if you don't want to discuss it, don't discuss it. If you do, don't complain!
"There is a political war going on between two ideological groups over TGs, one whose political position is that they should be treated as women, the other claiming that they're just pretending."
A political war? In what sense? Somewhat asymmetric conflict,isn't it? There's a very small number of people who believe your "trans-girls" exist. And a vast majority who think they're rather odd blokes dressing up as women. If there's any conflict it's the latter faction resenting the former ramming (if you'll excuse the expression) their agenda down the latter's throats. Apart from this, there's almost total lack of interest in the subject. It's a war in the sense the islanders of Canvey. might have declared war on the UK.
"Somewhat asymmetric conflict,isn't it? There's a very small number of people who believe your "trans-girls" exist. And a vast majority who think they're rather odd blokes dressing up as women."
Oh, yes? Got any evidence to back that assertion up?
Like here or Table XII here?
I guess it's part of the same identity politics belief system. Not only does your politics demand belief that they're 'just pretending', but it also demands belief that you're still an overwhelming majority! Belief without evidence demonstrates faith.
Most people don't know much about the biology of gender dysphoria, like they don't know much about any scientific subject. But there's (non-overwhelming) majority opinion that they're not mentally ill and it's not immoral, discrimination and prejudice against TGs is wrong, they should be allowed to get on with it unmolested, and they're worthy of the same sort of legal protection that other commonly-persecuted minorities get. For most people – end of story. It's just one of the many hundreds of issues swirling in the public debate, and not one that gets them particularly fired up, either way.
"Apart from this, there's almost total lack of interest in the subject."
Elsewhere, I agree. But on this site, the topic comes up with a considerably greater frequency than the Canvey island debate, and generates a lot more emotion!
If you don't care, why do you argue with me about it? Different people have different opinions, and can express them. So what?
You seem to be repeatedly ramming the agenda down your own throats – apparently so that you can have something to moan and argue about.
Name changed to protect the innocent September 9, 2018 at 3:04 pm
I personally know a woman who transgendered (is that a verb?) to become a gay man. Sexual preference and gender identification are not strongly linked, it turns out.
Interesting thing is that at work, recent hires who didn't know him when back he was a she never even suspected that he had ever been anything but a he. Whereas I, and others who knew him early on can't help occasionally making the faux pas of referring to him as "her". And incidentally, as well as irrelevantly, S/he was always and still is a fabulous employee.
Somehow, stream of consciousness brings to mind a quote from a book by the great Lawrence Block – "The Burglar Who Read Spinoza", I think – in which Bernie (who is the thief/hero of the whole "Burglar" series) has a bumbling but lovable Lesbian partner-in-crime who owns a dog grooming business. At one point she says to Bernie, "There are two kinds of people I can't understand: gay men and straight women."
Hi, Name Changed,
Thanks! It's really nice to hear from someone else here who isn't relentlessly negative about the whole thing!
(In my experience, most TGs don't mind the occasional accidental pronoun lapse – it's only when it's done deliberately to be nasty that it gets unpleasant. And – just for information – the verb is "transition". But I'm not criticising!)

Dowden Science Hall dedicated during special ceremony
HUNTINGTON, Ind. In a special ceremony to recognize Dr. G. Blair Dowden and Chris Dowden, the Dowden Science Hall was dedicated today, April 24, in their honor.
Huntington's 12th President G. Blair Dowden and First Lady Chris Dowden led Huntington University for 22 years before retiring in May 2013.
Last April, the Board of Trustees honored the Dowdens by announcing that the Science Hall, which was built under their leadership, would be named in their honor. Today, the name was unveiled on the building.
"Thank you Dr. and Mrs. Dowden for your service and your vision to help make this dream an ongoing reality for our students," President Sherilyn Emberton said at the dedication ceremony. "For this today, we honor you."
Under Dr. Dowden's leadership, the 91,000 square-foot Science Hall opened in 2002. The state-of-the-art facility is home to the university's programs in nursing, mathematics, computer science, chemistry, biology, pre-med and environmental science. The Dowden Science Hall also houses the largest major on campus with 90 nursing students.
"This is an incredible and humbling honor for the two of us," Dr. Dowden said. "We never started our careers in Christian higher education some 39 years ago thinking that someday a building would be named after us. We are truly humbled and blessed."
The Dowdens shared this honor today with the many board members, administrators, staff and faculty, namely Dr. Jerry Smith, who chaired the planning committee for the Science Hall, who made this building a reality.
"It has been a privilege to serve alongside these gifted individuals for 22 years," Dr. Dowden said.
The Dowdens began their service to the university in 1991. During this time, the enrollment doubled and many new academic programs were developed, including nursing, exercise science and digital media arts.

Home Featured Dr Liz Gordon: Our road to mediocrity
Dr Liz Gordon: Our road to mediocrity
Featured The Daily Blog • December 2, 2021 • Comments off
"We have a choice: a choice between our current road to mediocrity, or a pathway to a more confident, aspirational and prosperous future" – Christopher Luxon MP.
Roads, and travelling, and seeing things with a different view, pepper the literature of many cultures. The notion of setting out on a journey is quite an appropriate metaphor for a new leader of a political party.
The key to a political road-poem is having three elements: a way to go, the right attitude in getting there, and a destination.
The following poem has two important elements but is rather alarmingly lacking in the third:
The Road goes ever on and on,
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.
That may do very well as a metaphor for Bilbo Baggins, signalling the eagerness with which the Hobbit sets out on his journey, and the likely new things he will encounter along the way.
But it is a terrible one for a new political leader, for whom having a command on the seminal event (taking the leadership), the attitude (hopeful, perhaps a bit fundamentalist, leaderishness) (oh yay, haven't had a neologism for weeks) and a known destination are equally important.
Not for Christopher Luxon the joys of a carefree heart, which may explore the paths and errands with abandon and hairy feet. No, Mr Luxon's task, as he clearly outlined in his opening speech, is to reset the National Party.
One can ponder all the moments that need resetting, perhaps using the structure of Bilbo's timeless song:
And some will fall along the way
They seek the glory of the trail
But end up lost in disarray.
Scandal, sex and mouthy men
And prayerful moments on one's knees
And hubris and vainglory then
'Til one gives back those hallowed keys.
Well, yes, we can agree I am no Tolkein, but to be fair I have abandoned work to have my say on the week's events. This is not a paid position, you know!
What spurred me on to write this blog was Mr Luxon's speech. Not the scandal issues or the Christian right wingness of it all. Actually, I was most interested in his statement that New Zealand was following a path to mediocrity and that he wanted to make us all more aspirational and ambitious.
It struck me how very old-fashioned the language of personal aspiration was. I was brought up, mumble years ago, on the notion that you could do anything you wanted if you only did your best and worked hard. Meritocracy was a really big thing in my middle-class English childhood, but has not been so much in more recent times.
(And avid readers will know that both my aspirational parents succumbed to the ambitious delights of unlimited alcohol, thus destroying, through their own successful travails, all they aspired to).
The reason for that is that we have recognised, and have shown through the work of people such as Max Rashbrooke and Susan St John, that there are barriers all over the place that prevent people, most people, from achieving all or often even some of their aspirations.
This does not mean that the majority of us who are in that position consider ourselves mediocre. If Christopher Luxon views people who do not scale the heights of running Air New Zealand as being swathed in mediocrity, then I have a real problem with him.
So Christopher Luxon's end goal is to make people more ambitious and aspirational, just like him. He holds his own career up as a shining light: "you too could be like me if you tried". The question is whether he is prepared to enter into the battle of removing the barriers that lead people into the dark halls of Shelob's lair – the road to mediocrity. The poverty, oppression, cultural error, sexism, violence, harassment, pay inequity, unequal education, lack of good housing, environmental degradation and oh dear, the list goes on and on.
Because without that plan, he may set out with hopeful heart and purpose in his step, but even if he overcomes the forces in his own caucus, the ravages of Covid and the many pitfalls of opposition, the chances of his journey there and back again being successful, meeting his own aspirational goals for the nation, are very, very slim.

Inderjit Singh Reyat, the only man convicted in the bombing of an Air India flight in 1985, was granted bail on Wednesday by a Canadian court after he spent more than two decades in prison.
Reyat has served more than 20 years for two separate convictions related to the bombing of the Air India flight 182, off the coast of Ireland on June 23, 1985, which claimed 329 lives.
His bail conditions were not immediately released by the British Columbia court, the Vancouver Sun reported.
Reyat's lawyer Ian Donaldson had argued for Reyat's release, pending his trial on perjury charges.
"I am sure he will be pleased to hear the news," Donaldson said.
In May 1991, he was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to 10 years in prison for his involvement in the bombing at Tokyo's Narita airport that killed two baggage handlers on June 23, 1985. He was then charged in connection with the Air India bombing.
The baggage handlers died when luggage, which was being transferred from an Air India flight, exploded at Narita airport.
Reyat served his entire sentence for those convictions but he remained behind bars facing the perjury charges for allegedly lying in his testimony at the trial of two men accused of involvement the attack.
Reyat's trial on the perjury charges is scheduled for next January.


Since the historical moments, the freedom was considered as an act of finally living in peace, a good example for such reason would be the emancipation letter in which the slave to be free of its owner allowed and to make of its life what he really wanted. However the freedom is today not seen of this skill for the opposite, it is seen of bad eyes, therefore we are not speaking of such freedom where so that it could be reached was necessary very work and sweat, not, we are speaking of the act of as to use this word with the others why to each step that the human being of, more disrespect is acquired, more ignorance is exerted. Thus the world if became great joguinho people who have better capacities being they in all the aspects, where mainly financial finishes using its freedom to bank one of ' ' superior' ' it has those that do not possess as much chance. The conclusion of everything is that the people are using the freedom of missed form, being that our ancestor had cost to get it and to prevent problems and future situations that are happening now as: wars, terrorism, constant destruction and enter excessively, what it leads to the reader to think: ' ' What he will be of all daqui the 15 years? ' ' ' ' Not. Daqui the 50 years? ' ' Something will go to happen obviously, but it will be good? it will be bad? We fit only to decide.

At the end of 2020, the song was ranked number one on Octane Sirius XM as the most played rock song on the radio in the United States.

Composition and lyrics
The song was composed and written by Ronnie Radke, Cody Quistad, and Tyler Smyth of DangerKids. It talks about Ronnie Radke exploring his demons, particularly that of his depression and accusations made against him throughout his life, and eventually transforming into a werewolf. Ronnie Radke says about the song:

When writing the song, Ronnie Radke drew inspiration from the 2019 film Joker.

As for the composition, Radke continues to experiment with rap, the first and second verses of the song are very noticeable rapping. However, the band does not leave aside its rock roots since the pre-chorus and the choruses continue to sound like heavy metal, even making the song lean more towards rap metal or nu metal. The song has a breakdown which marks that the band remains faithful to their metalcore sound that their fans fell in love with so much.

Music video
The music video for the song was directed by Jensen Noen. The music video depicts Ronnie Radke exploring his demons in which he eventually transforms into a werewolf. As of January 2022, the music video for the song has over 100 million views on YouTube.

In June 2020, Billboard introduced two new rock charts, with "Popular Monster" becoming the first song to top the Hot Hard Rock Songs chart and peaking at number 11 on the Hot Alternative Songs chart. On December 8, 2020, the song was certified gold in the United States by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) equivalent to 500,000 units. Later they obtained their first platinum record.

In popular culture
The song began to gain popularity on the TikTok video platform, several users began to use the song for their videos, this also helped the song continue to trend. The song is the entrance theme of British wrestler Zak Zodiac brother of Ronnie Radke's partner and All Elite Wrestling wrestler, Saraya (known as Paige in WWE), who works for different independent wrestling companies.

Q: How do we simplify mod expressions? I have a modulus function that looks like this $f(x) = 2x+3 \bmod b$, and i have to show that $x = y$ to prove that the function is $1-1.$
I know that mod functions can't be algebraically manipulated like regular function, so I was wondering if it was even possible or if I was just wasting my time scratching my head.

A: The number $b$ you are given must be odd.
We have $2x+3 \equiv 2y+3 \pmod {b}$ iff $(2x+3)-(2y+3)$ is divisible by $b$ iff $2(x-y)$ is divisible by $b$.
If $b$ is odd, this is true  iff $x-y$ is divisible by $b$, that is, iff $x\equiv y \pmod{b}$.
Thus if $b$ is odd, our function is one to one. This need not be true if $x$ is even. For example. $(2)(1)+3 \equiv 2(5)+3\pmod {8}$ but $1\not\equiv 5\pmod{8}$.
Remark: Actually, what is remarkable is the degree to which mod expressions can be manipulated like regular functions.

A: It is much more insightful to consider the following generalization.
Theorem $\ $ The following are equivalent for integers $\rm\:c,\, m\,$.
$(1)\rm\ \ \ gcd(c,m) = 1$
$(2)\rm\ \ \ c\:$ is invertible $\rm\,(mod\ m)$
$(3)\rm\ \ \ x\to cx+d\:$ is $\:1$-$1\:$ $\rm\,(mod\ m)$
$(4)\rm\ \ \ x\to cx+d\:$ is onto $\rm\,(mod\ m)$
Proof $\ \ (1\Rightarrow 2)\ \ $ By Bezout, $\rm\: gcd(c,m) = 1\:\Rightarrow\: cd+km = 1\:$ for $\rm\:d,k\in\Bbb Z\:$ $\rm\Rightarrow\:cd\equiv 1\pmod m$
$(2\Rightarrow 3)\ \ \ \rm cx+d \equiv cy+d\:\Rightarrow\:c(x-y)\equiv 0\:\Rightarrow\:x-y\equiv 0\:$ by multiplying by $\rm\:c^{-1}$
$(3\Rightarrow 4)\ \  $ Every $1$-$1$ function on a finite set is onto.
$(4\Rightarrow 1)\ \ \ \rm x\to cx\:$ is onto, so $\rm\:cd\equiv 1,\:$ some $\rm\,d,\:$ i.e. $\rm\: cd+km = 1,\:$ some $\rm\,k,\:$ so $\rm\:gcd(c,m)=1$

These stickers are awesome because of the variety. My favorites are the PH Books and PH 8-bit Kitty stickers. How about you?
This exactly what I wanted to recommend.
Polymail sends stickers out to their customers pretty regularly - been repping mine for a few months now and love showing them off. Also cool to have someone recognize them out in the open!
GitHub has a wide variety of Octocat stickers, all centered around different themes. Cute additions to any collection. Their Student Developer Pack stickers are cool too.
You can schedule it via the Buffer but then you must add the text and hastags when it's time - which the buffer lets you know via a notification. But it's a great feature to have!
Atomic's were literally the first stickers I used. It now lives on my notebook along with other stickers that speak to me.
Zeplin managed to send me stickers to Hong Kong and the UK at the same time. They are now the only sticker I have on my Macbook 🙌 much love!
I got a Pied Piper sticker from Redbubble that I love, they have a great collection on there!
AWESOME STICKERS. THAT'S WHY I'M SCREAMING.
Do Gmail stickers count? Google had limited edition stickers made way back in 2008, which I lucky enough to get. Their sticker set included keyboard shortcuts that you can stick onto your keyboard, a couple of designs that had a drawing and included "This belongs to ________@gmail.com", and my favorite, a sparkly gmail logo sticker.
Bolt VC and their meetup in Boston is awesome. It's all about hardware startups, and their sticker is on my notebook too!
BitPay gave out "Decentralize All The Things!" stickers a while ago. Cute addition to your collection if you're a bitcoin nerd or appreciate internet culture.
What took you so long? I remember getting popups while using the app 🤦♂ Kudos to the team at TC for giving this priority!


REVENGE will be on their mind when Mumbai Indians lock horns with Kings XI Punjab, the hosts looking to stretch their winning run in the Indian Premier League in Mumbai on Wednesday (10).
MI enter the match high on confidence following successive victories over holders Chennai Super Kings and last edition's finalists Sunrisers Hyderabad.
Significantly both these victories came mostly because of MI's all-round bowling strength as the bowlers defended totals successfully.
MI are also blessed with splendid batting firepower in the end overs from West Indian Kieron Pollard and Hardik Pandya.
Kings XI, who too have been given a shot-in-the-arm by their six-wicket victory Monday night over Sunrisers, need to chip away at the top of the MI batting as well as ensure that the big-striking Pollard and Hardik don't take away the game like they did when carving 45 runs in the last two overs against CSK to turn the game around.
MI don't even have anyone in the top-20 run scorers' list this season, an indication of the depth in their batting, and have a superior fast bowling attack bolstered by the inclusion of West Indian pacer, Alzarri Joseph, who blew away Sunrisers with his record-breaking haul of 6/12 in Hyderabad in their previous game.
The hosts have a formidable pace attack with Jasprit Bumrah and left-arm Jason Behrendorff also there, along with Joseph and Hardik, to utilise the bounce and carry on the Wankhede track.
Kings XI, third on the table with eight points, have been top heavy in batting with K L Rahul and Mayank Agarwal leading the way with 200-plus aggregates and the indomitable Gayle too not far behind.
In bowling, skipper Ravichandran Ashwin (7 wickets) has done well in five out of six games that the team has played and has got good support from the likes of Sam Curran, Mohammed Shami and Murugan Ashwin.
