Even I had forgotten that this case was in the docket somewhere about to have a pronouncement from a judge and ready to move to the next stage of deliberations or resignation.
In March 2008, the then Minster of Health, the highly respected Professor Adenike Grange resigned along with her deputy and a host of senior management staff in the Ministry of Health.
It transpired that the President had given a directive to all ministries to return to the federation account all unallocated funds to the end of the last year.
In any setup that understands the line of command, executive authority and the appreciation of responsibilities conferred when asked to serve in public office, this should not have been a tough thing to do.
Unfortunately, it is alleged that the management team of the Ministry of Health cooked up an elaborate scheme of fraudulent agencies to siphon away N300 million (Naira) where the management were paid millions and the rank and file staff got a pittance that was further depleted by top-brass greed and passed off as a Christmas bonus.
Then, I laughed off the idea that a ministry in Nigeria could have the structures and monitoring models typical of a merchant bank in place as to have set goals and met objectives to be deserving of a bonus.
However, this all was unique in its consequences but benign in relation to the events that followed, this bonus scheme included dishing out N10 million to the Senate Committee on Health whose chairman apparently squandered it on some capacity building trip to Ghana.
This capacity building trip which was supposed to help in presenting a bill to deal with the serious health crisis in Nigeria hit the road blocks on its first outing, it was completely castigated by the Senate that it had to be withdrawn then.
Anyway, after the Minister resigned, the EFCC waded into the case and basically pointed fingers at all in authority who could have mishandled the cash that should have been returned to the federation account.
The drama that ensued involved weeks of speculation about the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Health who vaulted her security wall to evade capture by law enforcement agents from the EFCC and went into hiding that it became a bizarre news story until she showed up and ended up setting up an opulent chamber in the offices of the chief of police when remanded in custody.
The Chairman would have us believe that there is no conflict of interest in taking moneys from an arm of the executive to do legislative business with a department over which she is supposed to have legislative oversight – it is a muddled democracy out there, the question of ethical conduct is as alien as a visitor from Mars having supper with you tonight.
Meanwhile, all these suspects have been challenging the case that has been made against them by the EFCC, which for all that we have heard and read about this scam looks like a really decent case that should have its run in court with all the legal scrutiny and advocacy that such issues entertain.
In a ruling yesterday at an Abuja High Court, that judge ruled that they all have a case to answer , at least for any layman, somebody has to answer questions satisfactorily about why a welfare committee was set up to disburse funds that should have been remitted elsewhere.
As for the case of the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Health, the judge opined that she does have to answer questions relating to the N10 million that was paid to her committee out of the N300 million  – which anyone should find just plainly reasonable.
However, we can trust that these people would want to frustrate due legal process to serve their own ends such that no more light can be shone on why people who held responsibility for making decisions for Nigerians on health and healthcare felt they had a greater cause to fill their pockets and go on fanciful jaunts.
It would go to appeal according to their lawyers and hopefully, the higher up they go, the judges would be more convinced of the fair and just need to lift the lid off this rotten scam and its perpetrators; so we can get to the substance of the charges and test those charges before a fair and balanced judicial process.
The people with their agitation do not help us maintain the presumption of innocence about them, it is like they have something to hide and human nature does have a tenacity that pits against tenacity till one gives – the one being, we need to know the truth about how a presidential directive failed to exact the power and authority it should have had in any honest, reliable, ethical and responsible setting.
They should bring on their battalions of legal luminaries paid for by unaudited sources of wealth and we stand sure that justice would prevail, those who are innocent would be set at liberty and their honour restored, those who are guilty, for all that we have already been dragged through to get to the end of this matter – woe betide you.

Q: Inner join is breaking SSRS I have a query:
SELECT systemuser.fullname AS 'fullname',

inner join vfinduserguid vfg
on systemuser.systemuserid = vfg.userguid

which I have converted to FetchXML:

</fetch>

using this service: http://www.sql2fetchxml.com/
When I try to use this FEtchXML within SSRS, I'm getting:

The specific record type does not exist in Microsoft Dynamics CRM.
What am I doing wrong?
Please note that it is the last join (vfinduserguid) that is breaking it. This object is a view.

Q: Reading a duration over 24h from Excel using EPPlus I am trying to read the text value of a specific cell from excel. The value in question is a formula which sums up multiple cells.

What Ive tried so far:
worksheet.Cells["E42"].Style.Numberformat.Format  = "hh:mm"; //and [hh]:mm
result = worksheet.Cells["E42"].Text;

Converting the worksheet.Cells["E42"].Value to DateTime using FromAoDate doesnt work for me either.
The best result was 08:20 which is conveniently 24h less than the actual value.
EDIT:
Results from the suggestions
worksheet.Cells["E42"].Style.Numberformat.Format  = "[hh]:mm";
result = worksheet.Cells["E42"].Text; //returns "08"

worksheet.Cells["E42"].Style.Numberformat.Format  = "hh:mm";
result = worksheet.Cells["E42"].Text; //returns "08:20"

worksheet.Cells["E42"].Style.Numberformat.Format  = "hh:mm";
result = worksheet.Cells["E42"].Text;
result = TimeSpan.TryParse((string)result, out TimeSpan tres); //returns 08:20:00

worksheet.Cells["E42"].Style.Numberformat.Format  = "[hh]:mm";
result = worksheet.Cells["E42"].Text;
result = TimeSpan.TryParse((string)result, out TimeSpan tres); //returns 8.00:00:00

//converting to DateTime has similar results

result = DateTime.FromOADate(Convert.ToDouble(worksheet.Cells["E42"].Value));
//returns 31.12.1899 08:20:00

A: This will give you a TimeSpan object that should work for your needs.
string result = worksheet.Cells["E42"].Text;
TimeSpan timeResult;

string[] split = result.Split(':');
timeResult = new TimeSpan(int.Parse(split[0]), int.Parse(split[1]), 0);

A: I havent found a proper solution yet, but there is a way.
var worksheet = package.Workbook.Worksheets[2];
var value = worksheet.Cells["E42"].GetValue<DateTime>(); //the cell contains 32:20 in excel
//returns 31.12.1899 08:20:00
var value2 = worksheet.Cells["E39"].GetValue<DateTime>(); //the cell contains 00:00 in excel
// which returns 30.12.1899 00:00:00
var t = value.Subtract(value2); //returns 1.08:20:00, which translates to 32:20:00

The 00:00 Date seems to convert to DateTime.Parse("30.12.1899 00:00:00");
and 33:20 to 31.12.1899 08:20:00, so by subtracting we can recover the actual timespan.
Here's an example implementation:
//Only works for single values
private bool TryGetTimeSpan(ExcelWorksheet sheet, string address, out TimeSpan? result)
{
    var excelMinDate = DateTime.Parse("30.12.1899 00:00:00");

    try
    {
        var time = sheet.Cells[address].GetValue<DateTime>();
        result = time.Subtract(excelMinDate);
    }
    catch (FormatException)
    {
        result = null;

        return false;
    }

    return true;
}

World Bank pandemic bonds will funnel $196 million to 64 poor countries
UNFPA and BRAC host knowledge dissemination event on Covid-19
Funding packages will range from $1-$15 million per country. Heavier weight will be given to countries classified as fragile or conflict-affected, the World Bank said in a statement
A participant stands near a logo of World Bank at the International Monetary Fund - World Bank Annual Meeting 2018 in Nusa Dua, Bali, Indonesia, October 12, 2018.Reuters/Johannes P Christo
A World Bank pandemic funding programme will see $195.84 million distributed as soon as next week among 64 of the world's poorest countries that have reported cases of Covid-19 to help tackle the fast-spreading disease, the lender said on Monday.
The World Bank launched a number of instruments under its Pandemic Emergency Financing (PEF) programme after the 2013-2016 Ebola outbreak in Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia that killed at least 11,300 people to provide rapid financing to affected poor countries.
The bonds and swaps came under scrutiny after some failed to pay out during the 2018 Ebola epidemic which killed more than 2,000 people in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and when they failed to pay out earlier in the coronavirus crisis, which has killed more than 200,000 people and infected nearly three million worldwide.
Funding packages will range from $1-$15 million per country. Heavier weight will be given to countries classified as fragile or conflict-affected, the World Bank said in a statement.
The funds will help countries finance essential and critical life-saving medical equipment, personal protective equipment, therapeutics and medicine, as well as support for health workers on the frontlines of the crisis, it said.
While developed countries are funnelling trillions of dollars into their own virus stricken economies, many emerging nations lack the financial means to mitigate the hit from the global economy tumbling into recession or to shore up their often fragile healthcare systems.
The funds will come on top of the lender's commitment of $160 billion to fight Covid-19, the World Bank added.
The PEF programme was designed to cover six viruses viewed as most likely to cause a pandemic.

Singapore-based photographer Jared Lim has a fantastic eye for architectural patterns and geometry. The series, entitled Urban Exploration, consists of photos he took while travelling to major cities and have been inspired by a love for geometry that his has since he was a kid.
Jared likes to photograph architecture, capturing the repetitive building elements on large scales and manipulating the apparent depth of his work. Without the irregular traces of human in his work it becomes hard to gauge the scale of his work, or sometimes even guess what you're looking at. But the half-opened windows and window dressings make it clear that we are looking at the facade of a building, even if much of his work has us stuck on the outside, looking in.
"I have always loved geometry, lines, curves, pattern and abstract designs. Architecture seems like a great way to express them. My added advantage of traveling to most major cities for my work gives me great opportunities. Urban Exploration comprise of my cities shots in colors, monochrome and street photography" the artist said.
In and around modern buildings around the world, Lim has shown an intense passion to find geometry, lines, and curves but, most of all, he's astute at finding patterns. He presentations are not only eye-catching but artistic.

Yes I am back from the land of whack where I will not have a corny knack of hitting the sack with my sonnets!
Anyway, I've updated my blog viewing system – you don't have to click on each archived post to read it! Instead, you get to skip pages of 28 days' worth of your health peppy poppy high-calorie Glaring Notebook adjective-injected posts!
Oh, and if you wonder what's with this Red Brick skin having the Glaring Notebook signboard as text, it's because it's expandable! The Red Brick skin is designed to be horizontally and vertically liquid (as with a lot of other skins on this site!) Liquid in this case means expandable. Of course, there is a minimum width for this Red Brick skin, but it lives well within the lowest VGA resolutions one can point a stick or set a monitor at!

Finally (did I really just slam up eight posts today?!!) here is a collection of links that may appeal to the sysadmin crowd here at GSD blog.

I need to experiment to see if the script can be ported/work under a Windows port; Is there a way to run Bash scripts on Windows? and win-bash - bash port for Windows. I'll also dig around to see if there could be a PowerShell method as well.
And just to prove that Claus isn't all work and no play…my brother and I hooked up over the weekend and spend a breezy, clear and beautiful day exploring a regional bird-watching park. He tended to go for photos of actual birds. My shots were more of "desktop" background compositions…though I did get more than a few ducks in the frame.
Since we have been talking about malware on some of the recent posts, here were some articles that seemed to do a great job of putting things into context.
What a fake antivirus attack on a trusted website looks like - Ars Technica - This is exactly what almost got my Dad into trouble a few weeks ago.
Ad2Store redirections: the latest annoyance for mobile users - Malwarebytes Unpacked. I can't count how many times I've visited the home-page of a regional newspaper on my iPhone, then instantly "BAMO" I get redirected and instead of Chrome for iOS that I was looking at, I am now staring at my AppStore application offering me a stupid "free" game to download. This has annoyed and bothered me to no end. I knew the general mechanism on why this occurred from time to time, however this Malwarebytes blog post does an excellent job sorting it out in a way that can be explained for less technical users (family/friends) who encounter it. Well worth the read.

The big-gun I use for most of my Windows process and activity monitoring remains Windows Sysinternal's Process Explorer.
For supportive logging work, I primarily use Windows Sysinternal's Process Monitor.
And the biggest new feature was to integrate VirusTotal with it so you can search processes "on the fly" with VirusTotal. Pretty handy and cool.
However, don't limit yourself just to the grand-master of Process Explorer.
Among the many, I keep the following other Windows process monitoring tools handy as well as they bring some different feature-sets to the game.
Process Hacker - It's easy to get lost in this application. Install/portable versions available or use this Process Hacker Portable version from PortableApps.com.
Another cool tool I use and am getting to know is "PowerTool" - It is a "…a free anti-virus&rootkit utility. It offers you the ability to detect, analyze and fix various kernel structure modifications and gives you a wide scope of the kernel." It supports both x86 and x64 platforms. It has all kinds of special bells and whistles for detecting aberrations in standard operations on a Windows system.
Finally, I've mentioned the free ESET SysInspector (x32 & x64 versions available) to not just generate a detailed log report of running processes, but also scan for hidden processes and objects, compare generated logs, and automatic heuristic analysis (color coded) of those processes and other system contents for focused analysis. It rocks.
Use a good/free password manager to generate complex, strong, long random password strings (like this one you can have for free: €&ÖTÒC²ÿ¦Aì:ÿ±ØF3`¹æ"åB£/¸4ö»"R+Üb"j9Ħ) And use a different one for each online account. I personally recommend the free KeePass Password Safe but there are tons of great, free, open-source ones out there for the choosing.
If you have smartphone, you can often share that database across platforms to make it convenient. MiniKeePass (for iOS).
Don't use your actual personal information (birthday, favorite things, actual/true answers to security questions); a password keeper can help you keep track of what answer you used. This way if those responses get hacked for the world to see, they can't be used against you on other sites.
Use a different email-address to register for each of your "core" high-security/high-value account web-sties. Many online accounts use/require an email address for the account name. If one account gets breached, they won't be able to use it on other accounts. Most email clients (and some online email services) allow you to pull emails from more than one email account. That would let you aggregate all these different email addresses into one place.
Log into websites with your account using your browser's "Privacy/Private-browsing" mode.
Log out of your account when you are done doing your business.
Sign up one or more of your user-name/email addresses over at Have I been pwned? to proactively monitor for account breaches. Unless you are engaged in the security news industry, a number of critical days might pass before you hear on the mainstream tv/radio/internet news channels of a breach. If you hear it from the pros first, then you have a jump on getting your account credentials changed before someone uses/buys/abuses them. At least that's the theory.
ForSec News SuperPost - GSD post that covers the initial Target breach news.

…and with some "perspective" tossed in for dessert.
Malwarebytes : Malwarebytes Anti-Malware FREE is one of the few anti-malware protections I recommend to family members and friends to put on their systems…just in case.
While I have traditionally gone first with Microsoft Security Essentials for active (free) AV/AM protection (mostly for it's ease of use and general ubiquity for them), having MAM-Free allows me to have them do an "on-demand" scan of their system periodically when something "hinky" pops up and we want to have a trusted second-opinion that MSE addressed the threat detection. That seems to be a popular combination.
The biggest drawbacks of the free version (IMHO) are that it does not support real-time protection nor allow for heuristic detection. The pro version covers those features and more.
So it was with some excitement that I read about Malwarebytes having a fresh new rebuild of the Anti-Malware product, version 2.0.
It is currently in beta but looks and performs very, very well on my test systems.
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.00 Beta Test -- DOWNLOAD - Malwarebytes Forum. download link and license key on that page.
Note: A new version beta 2.0 was released Feb 12th.
Check it out and see it if might fit your needs.
The beta is for the "consumer" version of the product, the business version is not yet released.
If you are running MalwareBytes Free/Pro, first uninstall it before installing the beta version.
It is going to operate under a subscription licensing model, $24.95 year.
According to Malwarebytes, if you spring now for a lifetime license now (under the current build level), they will honor that lifetime license for version 2.0 so you won't have to switch/pay for the yearly subscription price. That's a super-deal and savings. Shop around as prices will vary a bit.
There will still be a "free" version of Malwarebytes 2.0 when it goes public.
It has actually been out for quite a while now.
(I'm specifically referring to the release version for Windows 8 & 8.1.

Let?s face it: this film is all about expectation. There is Rajkumar Hirani coming out with a film after three years and teaming up with Aamir for the first time; the Rang De Basanti cast reunion with Aamir, Madhavan and Sharman and, add to that, a creatively empty year with hardly any worthwhile films. Whoosh, you can actually cut through the pressure with a knife.
You can hardly help yourself as you watch the film - you?d expect the best from the best, right? Not always, as you learn here. The film?s a good watch, but not great. And worse, you may be entertained, but you?re unlikely to internalise its core message. The film doesn?t convince you enough.
Part Chetan Bhagat?s Five Point Someone, part Dil Chahta Hai (the invincible friendship) and part Munnabhai, (it also had this writer think back to Ayn Rand?s The Fountainhead that spoke about characters breaking the norm as opposed to those who follow the system), 3 Idiots seems a bhel puri of sorts. Like in Munnabhai, where Sanjay Dutt?s character pleads for simplifying and humanising medicine, here Rancho (Aamir Khan) openly challenges the education system that encourages learning by rote.
New students at a premiere engineering college, the three characters meet on their first day. Rancho, who we are told belongs to a wealthy family, upsets the higher-ups almost immediately. His two other friends Farhan (Madhavan) and Raju (Sharman) form the other two idiots. Their individual stories are fairly interesting.
Farhan belongs to a family where the parents sacrificed the sole family AC for his room so he could study better. Raju?s story, complete with a sick dad, teary-eyed mother and unwed sister is shown in black and white in the fashion of the ?50s movies. You sympathise with his situation while smiling at the stroke of delicious black humour. The film trails their life during the four years in college and after.
A couple of scenes are truly memorable. Like the one where Rancho asks the examiner for five extra minutes to finish his exam paper and describes his reaction ?as if he had just been asked for both his kidneys?. The part where we see students feverishly praying and ?striking deals with God? is also realistic. The ragging appears over-the-top, but it?s amusing nevertheless. The Aall iz well anthem, too, is pretty catchy.
From then on the film slowly disintegrates. Several portions immerse you, only to lead nowhere. Whether it?s the boring romance (and a clumsy kiss), or the few moments of suspense when we realise one of the characters is not what they seem. The portions that deal with pressure on students leading them to suicide is just touched upon. There?s no depth in the thrashing of this topic.
The second half is totally cuckoo, complete with a never-ending scene around an emergency baby delivery that has zero relevance to the story and surprisingly loud melodrama. The finale is coincidence-driven and is too much of a stretch for the viewer to be delighted. And, yes, at three-and-half-hours the film is too long, especially since it?s laden with scenes like the ones mentioned above that could have been done away with.
The humour is average - most of it is juvenile and will tickle those who find the repeated mention of balatkar funny. Characterisation is sketchy and one-note. Aamir is the flawless do-gooder ?hero? who is a genius student, dependable friend and expert advice giver all in one. Heck, he can even look at a girl and magically guess that she?s wearing her late mother?s watch and is missing her at the moment.
Sharman plays a character that does a complete volte-face towards the end, good-naturedly blabbering about all his faults to a stern interview panel and impressing them with his honesty (unintentionally hilarious, this). This is the ending so we can also guess whether he lands the job or not.
Madhavan?s character we don?t learn about at all. Kareena?s med-school student act is just a shield ? she?s rather brainless, ready to marry a man (twice) who insults her just because her romance with the boyfriend doesn?t work out.
Boman Irani does the grumpy principal act again after Munnabhai, this time with less charm. Despite the cast?s stellar performances, they don?t completely take you into their stories. Aamir playing a 20-something student is dependably good, though one can?t help question casting older actors to play roles half their age. Sharman Joshi gives an earnest performance and Madhavan, too, is impressive.
Omi playing Chatur, an ambitious student, has the best lines and is the source of most of the humour. The actor playing Millimetre leaves you with an endearing performance. Technically, the film is functional. The editing could have been more alert, of course. Music is alright - a slight disappointment as Hirani?s films always have memorable music.
So there you have it. 3 Idiots is a film that appears borrowed from too many sources and the haphazardness shows. Editor-director Rajkumar Hirani can?t seem to shake Munnabhai out of his system and appears to have replaced the actor and the setting, while retaining the core formula. Unfortunately, 3 Idiots lacks the effortless simplicity, sweetness and honesty of the Munnabhai films. Though a bit too calculated and designed, 3 Idiots is still an ok option for the significant message, interesting cast and scattered breezy moments.

Remember When Bette Davis Was Rejected From Acting School?
The elite club of Oscar nominees is flush with failure, just look at Rosamund Pike, Daniel Craig, Carey Mulligan, and Hugh Jackman—all who were turned away from acting schools. But the original flunkie was Bette Davis, who despite graduating from prestigious New England college prep school Cushing Academy, failed to be accepted to Eva Le Gallienne's prestigious Manhattan Civic Repertory in 1928. Le Gallienne's theater company was the forerunner to off-Broadway, and by the time Davis applied several of the era's notable actors hard already tread its boards.
The now-defunct institute never issued an explanation for missing this diamond in the rough. The James Spada written biography, Bette Davis: More Than a Woman, implies that attitude and lack of control was an issue, noting that LeGallienne called Davis both "insincere" and "frivolous." But even when she was Ruth Elizabeth, Davis, who would have celebrated her 110th birthday today, she was as resilient as the characters she'd go to play on screen. Eventually the budding actress would go on to attend the John Murray Anderson/Robert Milton School of Theatre and Dance, where Lucille Ball was a classmate.
It wasn't the first or last time Davis would be cast as a real life "difficult woman." Her refusal to suffer fools cut her yearlong stint as the first female president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences short by eight months. (Doing away with dinner and dancing at the Oscars was, understandably, not a popular proposal.) Likewise, she was released from her contract at Universal (and considered leaving Hollywood for Broadway) after six films failed to hit.
But when Davis signed a seven-year contract with Warner Bros in 1932, she finally began her string iconic roles, including 1951's All About Eve and 1963's What Ever Happened to Baby Jane. Eventually she would on to be nominated for a staggering eleven Oscars, winning Best Actress in 1936 for her role in Dangerous and then again in 1939 for Jezebel.
It's like that old saying is always reminding us: If a first you don't succeed, try and try again. Of course, it also doesn't hurt if you've also got Bette Davis eyes.

Shuttle + visit : End of January to March 21, departure from Old Québec with Old Québec Tours.
On foot: Starting in mid‑November, you can hit the ice at Place D'Youville. With the lights and music, it's the ultimate urban setting for a turn around the rink, any day of the week. Open until 10 p.m., it's especially beautiful at night, in the glow of the surrounding city. Starting mid-December, the ice oval on the Plains of Abraham will also be ready to welcome skaters daily. Both rinks are free and offer low‑cost equipment rentals.
Toboggan Run
On foot: In the heart of Old Québec, on Dufferin Terrace, there's a tradition that dates back over a hundred years: the toboggan run. What fun!
Shuttle to Village Vacances Valcartier : From end of January to mid-February, departure from Old Québec with Old Québec Tours.
On foot: You'll find nearly 12 km of cross‑country ski trails and 4 km of snowshoeing trails on the Plains of Abraham. If you're staying nearby, you can even put your skis or snowshoes on right at your hotel and head straight for this fantastic urban park.

Public bus (RTC): For a more urban atmosphere, the Skyspa is accessible via bus routes 800 and 801 (get off at J.-Dallaire #2000).
Public bus (RTC) : Fat biking is a hot new winter sport that lets you ride over the snow on bikes equipped with oversized tires. To try it at Domaine Maizerets, hop on the 800 bus and get off at Bardy #1756.
Shuttle: Try an electric fat bike in the beautiful Jacques-Cartier National Park with return transportation from Québec City with Aventures Quatre-Nature.

Lending Works appointments new board members
By Daniel Lanyon on 14th November 2018
The platform is looking to scale its lending operations in 2019 and beyond and has added its board with individuals from from Pollen Street Capital, Maven Capital Partners & CMC Markets.
Consumer focused P2P platform Lending Works has added three new board members in a bid to continue its recent high growth and meet "ambitious goals" for 2019, the company said in a statement.
The peer-to-peer lender has appointed Simon Waugh, former Chairman of CMC Markets, Deputy CEO of British Gas, Paul Noble, CEO of Honeycomb Finance, a Pollen Street Capital business, and Melanie Goward, Investment Director of Maven Capital Partners.
Launched in 2014, Lending Works has facilitated £150m in lending and has long the largest P2P consumer lender behind market leaders Zopa and RateSetter. A large proportion of this, c.£67m) coming his year.
The platform says that investors can earn 6.5 per cent interest, tax free if via an ISA.
Lending Works said in a media release: "Each new member brings a new, complementary skill set to the table, from a seasoned executive who served as an executive for British Gas and Chairman CMC Markets, to the CEO of a Honeycomb Finance, which simplifies loans for customers, and an Investment Director with impressive technology-based expertise."
Nick Harding, CEO and Co-Founder of Lending Works, says, the firm is "targeting huge growth" that the new board members will be key in helping with.
"Each new member brings diverse knowledge and expertise that will support us in re-inventing UK consumer finance and becoming the leader in fair finance."
Simon Waugh says, "Looking at Lending Works' history and impressive growth over the last five years I am thrilled to be joining its board of directors. The company has the potential to change how consumers access finance, making the industry fairer. I look forward to being part of a very exciting future for Lending Works."
Lending Works scooped £2.8m in fundraising in July but, as revealed exclusively by AltFi, it soon after saw its enviable partnership with banking challenger Revolut put into question as the firm announced that it would bring lending "in-house'.
Although it is important to note that with regards to the partnership nothing has changed yet.

Natural Sciences is a subject that essentially prepares learners to succeed in Physical Sciences and/or Life Sciences. This means that the content in the subject is always going to be interesting! In grade 8 the content covers topics including environmental issues, introductions to chemistry, electricity, visible light and the structures in the solar system and beyond. In grade 9 the content covers topics including the human body systems, chemical reactions, forces, the Earth as a system and the birth, life and death of stars.
Naturally, these topics encourage learners to ask questions and think critically – sometimes to the disadvantage to the teacher (thanks Google…).

Q: How to fix 'TypeError: relatedEntities.forEach is not a function' from typeorm I'm setting up a server using TypeORM + PostgreSQL. When saving saving my entity to the entity's repository, I receive the error: TypeError: relatedEntities.forEach is not a function and the entity is not saved to the database.
This seems to only happen when I am using the @OneToMany or @TreeChildren decorators.
Here is my entity class that is causing the problem:
import { ServiceData } from './service-data.entity';
import { ManufacturerData } from './manufacturer-data.entity';
import { Entity, Column, PrimaryGeneratedColumn, TreeChildren } from 'typeorm';

@Entity()
export class Advertisement {
  @PrimaryGeneratedColumn()
  id: number;

  @Column({ nullable: true })
  name?: string;

  @Column()
  gatewayId: string;

  @Column()
  rssi: number;

  @Column({ nullable: true })
  mac?: string;

  @TreeChildren()
  manufacturerData?: ManufacturerData[];

  @TreeChildren()
  serviceData?: ServiceData;
}

The (abbreviated) error output is:
UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: relatedEntities.forEach is not a function
    at OneToManySubjectBuilder.buildForSubjectRelation (/<project-directory>/src/persistence/subject-builder/OneToManySubjectBuilder.ts:78:25)

A: Found the problem.
@TreeChildren and @OneToMany always expect an array. I had to change serviceData?: ServiceData; to serviceData?: ServiceData[];

A: This error can come up when the oneTomany relationships are not properly written in the Entity design and also when you trying to store the relationships in a table.
The first One is, setting the Entity holding many of the other Entity like this
@OneToMany(() => Address, (address) => address.users)
address: Address[];

The other entity that has manyToOne relationship like this,
@ManyToOne(() => Users, (users) => users.address)
users: Users;

If the relationships are all good, then the problem is storing the entity relations to the database.
when creating the user, store the relationships like this
address = await this.addressRepository.findOneOrFail({

      where: {

        user_id: Number(userId),

      },

    });

const user = new User();

user.name = name;
user.age = age;

### store the address as an array of objects to the relationship column
users.address = [address]


Rabbit-immunoglobulin antibodies (r-IgGs) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) have been immobilized onto sol–gel-derived nanostructured cerium oxide (nanoCeO2) film fabricated onto an indium–tin-oxide (ITO) coated glass plate to detect ochratoxin-A (OTA). Broad reflection planes obtained in x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns reveal the formation of CeO2 nanostructures. Electrochemical studies reveal that nanoCeO2 particles provide an increased electroactive surface area for loading of r-IgGs with desired orientation, resulting in enhanced electron communication between r-IgGs and electrode. BSA/r-IgGs/nano CeO2/ITO immunoelectrode exhibits improved characteristics such as linear range (0.5–6 ng dl−1), low detection limit (0.25 ng dl−1), fast response time (30 s) and high sensitivity (1.27 µA ng−1 dl−1 cm−2). The high value of the association constant (Ka, 0.9 × 1011 l mol−1) indicates the high affinity of the BSA/r-IgGs/nanoCeO2/ITO immunoelectrode to OTA.

River of melted butter spills into Wisconsin canal after fire at dairy plant
Source: https://www-today-com, January 6, 2023
By: Joseph Lamour
A recent incident at a Wisconsin dairy factory resulted in quite a slippery situation for first responders.
On Jan. 2, a fire broke out at Associated Milk Producers Inc. dairy plant in Portage, Wisconsin in a part of the building that was storing butter. The fire caused so much butter to melt that a molten river flowed from the factory into the Portage Canal that runs beside the factory. Read more.

Introducing NAO the robot at Tokyo Haneda Airport
Nao joined the growing list of airport robots this week by providing Japan Airlines passengers at Tokyo Haneda Airport with information about flight schedules, security requirements and weather reports.
Japan Airlines started trials of the humanoid robot guide at Haneda last week and the tiniest member of its workforce will return to the gateway tomorrow for a three day stint.
And if he impresses Nao, who stands just 60-centimetre tall, could become a more permanent fixture at the airport.
Built by a French company, it speaks Japanese, English and Chinese and will be placed in the departure hall and security check areas for maximum impact.
Only last November, Amsterdam Schiphol introduced Spencer, which could be found wandering around the terminals looking for passengers in need of help finding their way around.
Like 'Robbi' at Geneva Airport, and looking a bit like 'Brian' from Confused.com although he cannot talk, Spencer (Pictured below) is basically designed to help get passengers to their gates in time and reduce the number of travellers who get lost en route to the gate
The brainchild of KLM and built by university and corporate researchers from France, Germany, Holland, Sweden and Switzerland, Spencer boasts technology that includes 2D laser cameras, five onboard computers and a variety of sensors.
Spencer is essentially a new and improved version of Geneva's Robbi who made his debut at the gateway a couple of years ago.
And Robbi and Spencer are not alone in what is becoming an increasingly sci-fi world at airports as Düsseldorf has its own Ray the robot, who in effect is a high-tech valet that parks your car for you!
On arrival, all travellers need to do is leave their car in a designated area at the German gateway and confirm it is empty and ready to go before Ray or one of its cybernetic colleagues will then take the car to one of 249 parking spaces reserved for robots in a dedicated area.
The forklift-like machine can carry any standard car weighing up to three metric tonnes (3.31 tonnes) and is fully insured.
To use the service travellers will have to pay a fee of around €30 day. According to the airport, the high-tech service is primarily targeted at busy business travellers.

Паутинная (арахноидальная) мозговая оболочка — одна из трёх оболочек, покрывающих головной и спинной мозг. Находится между двумя остальными оболочками — наиболее поверхностной твёрдой мозговой оболочкой и самой глубокой мягкой мозговой оболочкой, отделяясь от последней субарахноидальным (подпаутинным) пространством, заполненным 120—140 мл спинномозговой жидкости. Субарахноидальное пространство содержит кровеносные сосуды. В нижней части позвоночного канала в ликворе субарахноидального пространства свободно плавают корешки спинномозговых нервов («конский хвост»).

Анатомия
Спинномозговая жидкость поступает в подпаутинное пространство из отверстий в четвёртом желудочке головного мозга, наибольшее её количество содержится в цистернах субарахноидального пространства — расширениях, располагающихся над крупными щелями и бороздами головного мозга.

Паутинная оболочка образует ворсинчатые выросты — грануляции паутинной оболочки (), выпячивающиеся в просвет венозных синусов, сформированных твёрдой мозговой оболочкой, а также в кровеносные и лимфатические капилляры у места выхода корешков черепных и спинномозговых нервов из полости черепа и позвоночного канала. Посредством грануляций происходит реабсорбция ликвора через слой глиальных клеток и эндотелий синуса в венозную кровь. С возрастом количество и размеры ворсинок увеличиваются.

Паутинную и мягкую мозговые оболочки иногда рассматривают как общую структуру, лептоменинкс (), при этом твёрдая мозговая оболочка называется пахименинкс ().

Гистология
Паутинная оболочка, как следует из названия, имеет вид тонкой паутины, образованной соединительной тканью, содержит большое количество фибробластов. От паутинной оболочки отходят множественные нитевидные ветвящиеся тяжи (трабекулы), которые вплетаются в мягкую мозговую оболочку. С обеих сторон паутинная оболочка покрыта глиальными клетками.

Barbara Starr's career was approximately started in 1979. She was the correspondent for the Business Week magazine which covered energy matters and she held the position until 1988. Later, she moved on to become the correspondent for Jane's Defense Weekly, on 1998. She held the position up till 1997, and while working there, she covered the national security and also a defense policy too. She later joined in on the ABC news- as a producer next, and started covering the Pentagon. She has also won the Emmy Award. On the year of 2001, Barbara joined the CNN as the lead Pentagon correspondent, covered several national security issues.

This CNN correspondent and talented lady have kept her personal life hidden, but some source and wiki sites have reported that she is a married woman, but is a divorced woman. It is said that Starr was married to Gaylord Lloyd in 1924. The couple was together for some years but they split through the years. She is kind of a secretive personality and seems like she does not like to reveal much about her personal life. However, it has been known that Barbara Starr married life ended in a divorce and she has been single ever since. Researching her bio, on this topic one couldn't find anything about her married life, husband, dating history, and boyfriend.

A new series of profiles on the reality of poverty in Halton's electoral ridings titled "Action on Poverty" from Community Development Halton. The reports are part of a larger series of 53 profiles, one for each riding in the GTA and Hamilton coordinated by the Social Planning Network of Ontario.
Each profile contains facts and figures about poverty and challenges facing residents in each of the ridings. They identify how the work of community groups, service providers and advocacy groups in communities across the Golden Horseshoe are coming together to challenge poverty. These stories call attention to the wide range of anti-poverty initiatives that are taking place within each community and across Ontario.


When trying to decide whether to purchase a gas or diesel engine, one of the factors you might want to consider is how much maintenance each requires. A gas truck and a diesel truck will require different levels of maintenance and this might effect your decision to purchase one or another.
Diesel trucks have a more rigid construction and the lack of spark ignition can save money. They do not have spark plugs or distributors. Therefore, there is no need for an ignition tune-up. But in general, diesel trucks are more expensive than gas to repair or maintain. Fuel filter draining and oil changes are more expensive. However, major component replacement for gas and diesel engines are both very expensive. While the maintenance may be higher for diesel trucks, they cost less over time because of the lower fuel costs.
There are some components on a diesel truck that must be replaced more often. The oil reservoir is larger for the diesel engine. The water separator and fuel filters need to be replaced more often. The intervals for servicing gasoline over diesel are longer, which can lead to lower costs overall. While parts are more difficult to find for diesel engines, finding a good supplier will allow you to overcome this problem. Also, there is no hard data regarding the higher cost of diesel trucks vs. gasoline. The difference in cost is based on estimates.
Make sure to also hire trained and experienced drivers who know not to rev the engine, who only operate the truck at the optimal operating temperature, that avoid idling whenever possible and that always drive at the most fuel-efficient speeds.
In some cases you just need a diesel truck, such as when you are pulling a trailer across mountain ranges or across long distances. The good news is that if your diesel truck needs repairs, there are several highly professional companies that will perform these repairs for you. By doing business with a good diesel truck repair company, your fleet will have less downtime due to the lack of the availability of qualified technicians.


Serval - Beyond intracranial pressure: optimization of cerebral blood flow, oxygen, and substrate delivery after traumatic brain injury.
Beyond intracranial pressure: optimization of cerebral blood flow, oxygen, and substrate delivery after traumatic brain injury.
Bouzat P., Sala N., Payen J.F., Oddo M.
Monitoring and management of intracranial pressure (ICP) and cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) is a standard of care after traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, the pathophysiology of so-called secondary brain injury, i.e., the cascade of potentially deleterious events that occur in the early phase following initial cerebral insult-after TBI, is complex, involving a subtle interplay between cerebral blood flow (CBF), oxygen delivery and utilization, and supply of main cerebral energy substrates (glucose) to the injured brain. Regulation of this interplay depends on the type of injury and may vary individually and over time. In this setting, patient management can be a challenging task, where standard ICP/CPP monitoring may become insufficient to prevent secondary brain injury. Growing clinical evidence demonstrates that so-called multimodal brain monitoring, including brain tissue oxygen (PbtO2), cerebral microdialysis and transcranial Doppler among others, might help to optimize CBF and the delivery of oxygen/energy substrate at the bedside, thereby improving the management of secondary brain injury. Looking beyond ICP and CPP, and applying a multimodal therapeutic approach for the optimization of CBF, oxygen delivery, and brain energy supply may eventually improve overall care of patients with head injury. This review summarizes some of the important pathophysiological determinants of secondary cerebral damage after TBI and discusses novel approaches to optimize CBF and provide adequate oxygen and energy supply to the injured brain using multimodal brain monitoring.

Hypothyroidism in the Newborn
Andrew Calabria
, MD, Perelman School of Medicine at The University of Pennsylvania
Last full review/revision Sep 2020| Content last modified Sep 2020
Hypothyroidism is decreased production of thyroid hormone.
Hypothyroidism in the newborn may occur if there is a structural problem with the thyroid gland.
Symptoms may include delayed growth and development over time.
The diagnosis is based on newborn screening tests, thyroid function tests, and scanning tests.
Treatment includes giving thyroid hormone replacement.
(See also Overview of General Problems in Newborns, Hypothyroidism in adults, and Hypothyroidism in Infants and Children.)
The thyroid gland secretes thyroid hormone. Thyroid hormone controls the speed of the body's metabolism, including how fast the heart beats and how the body regulates temperature. If the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone, these functions slow down.
Hypothyroidism that is present at birth is called congenital hypothyroidism. Congenital hypothyroidism occurs in about 1 in 2,000 to 3,000 births. Most cases occur spontaneously, but about 10 to 20% are inherited.
The most common cause of hypothyroidism in the newborn is
Complete absence of the thyroid gland, underdevelopment of the thyroid gland, or development in the wrong place
Less commonly, the thyroid gland is present but does not produce normal amounts of thyroid hormones. In certain developing countries, hypothyroidism occurs when the mother has an iodine deficiency. Rarely, certain antibodies of the mother or drugs that cause enlargement of the thyroid gland or antithyroid drugs taken by the mother cross the placenta and cause temporary hypothyroidism in the newborn. In another rare cause, the pituitary gland is abnormally formed and fails to stimulate the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones (central hypothyroidism).
Symptoms of Hypothyroidism in the Newborn
Initially, the newborn may have no symptoms of hypothyroidism. Later, if the underlying cause of hypothyroidism is not identified and hypothyroidism remains undiagnosed or untreated, development of the central nervous system is slowed. The newborn may become sluggish (lethargic) and have a poor appetite, yellowing of the skin (jaundice), low muscle tone, constipation, large fontanelles, a hoarse cry, low heart rate, and a bulging of the abdominal contents at the bellybutton (called an umbilical hernia). If the newborn has an enlarged thyroid gland (congenital goiter), the gland may press against the windpipe and interfere with breathing at birth. A delay in the diagnosis and treatment of severe hypothyroidism causes intellectual disability and short stature. Eventually, the infant may develop dry, cool, mottled skin, coarse facial features (such as a flat, broad nasal bridge and a puffy face), and a slightly open mouth with an enlarged tongue.
Diagnosis of Hypothyroidism in the Newborn
Imaging tests
Because early treatment can prevent intellectual disability, all newborns receive a routine screening blood test in the hospital after birth to evaluate thyroid function.
If the result of the screening test is positive, thyroid function tests, which are blood tests, are done. In affected newborns, the blood test shows an elevated level of thyroid-stimulating hormone and usually a lower level of thyroid hormone.
After hypothyroidism of the newborn is diagnosed, doctors do imaging tests to evaluate the size and location of the thyroid gland. These tests include radionuclide scanning or ultrasonography.
Doctors do magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain and pituitary gland in children who have central hypothyroidism to rule out problems in the brain.
Prognosis of Hypothyroidism in the Newborn
Most infants who are treated have normal movement control and intellectual development.
Even when treated promptly, severe congenital hypothyroidism may still cause subtle developmental problems and hearing loss. Hearing loss may be so mild that it is not detected during the routine newborn screening but it may still interfere with language learning. To detect subtle hearing loss, infants are tested again when they are older.
Treatment of Hypothyroidism in the Newborn
Thyroid hormone replacement
Most newborns with hypothyroidism are given the synthetic thyroid hormone levothyroxine by mouth. It should not be given simultaneously with soy formula, or iron or calcium supplements because these substances can decrease the amount of levothyroxine that is absorbed. Most children who have congenital hypothyroidism need to take thyroid hormone replacement for their entire life. However, some children, usually those who have not required a dose increase after infancy, may be able to stop treatment after they are about 3 years of age. Treatment of hypothyroidism is directed by a doctor who specializes in treating children with problems of the endocrine system (called a pediatric endocrinologist).

Spec: My current spec is the pretty much the norm for a resto shammy in 5 mans at this stage. I put 2/2 points into Totemic Focus, seems somewhat of a useless stat other than the fact that it increases the duration of my mana tide totem by 40% aswell. 2/2 points went into Cleansing waters as in the 5 mans, alot of debuffs that need to be dispelled are ticking ones, hence the heal makes it viable. In the second tier of the enhancement tree I decided to put 2/2 points into Ancestral Swiftness. This speed increase is essential to raiding (avoiding fire etc) and the insta ghost wolf is very handy on that special occasion when you need to bail quickly.
Glyphs: My glyhps seem pretty standard at this stage of the expansion. Earth Shield, Riptide and Water shield. Since the changes to shammy healing, water shield for mana, with riptide and earth shield glyphs essential for the new healing style. The major glyphs are Healing wave, Chain heal and Healing Stream totem. All fairly self explanatory.
Gemming: Currently, I am gemming for Intellect. With the changes to shammy, haste doesn't have the use anymore as chain heal has virtually become useless. The increased mana pool as well as spell power increases the healing done by the stock healing wave, as well as a larger mana pool so that mana isnt an issue.
What makes you an exceptional player?: I've had a lot of experience now in leadership and leading raids which has made me quite aware of myself and others. I have strong knowledge in my own class but have also knowledge in playing a fury warrior. On top of this, I have now cleared all the content in the game, making me definitely an asset and not a liability. All these qualities along with my strong attendance and communication in fights where/when required set me out from the pack.
Once again didn't play, however have entered a few.
Why did you leave your last guild or why are you leaving your current guild? Our guild recently transfered over from Aman'thul (commonly known as Aman'Fail) and it seems that we didnt have the numbers that we were told we were going to have. This has created disharmony amongst the guild and things are pretty bent at the moment. As for my personal reasons, I was an officer in this guild and spent many hours organising healers during WOTLK expansion, gearing them, giving them specs, new rotations etc and found this very fun. I raid, thats what I love.
It seems that once cata hit we ran into a brick wall. Going from 9/12 everyweek in ICC25HM to No raiding at all has taken its toll. If you want to look it up, I am currently ranked top 10 for resto shammies on the server. Seems pretty good for someone who hasnt stepped foot in a raid.
Location (Country + TIME ZONE please): Australia, QLD, GMT+9???
Regular play time: Am currently rostered on pretty fulltime shiftwork, but play as often as I can. Mostly around 5/6 hours a day.
Can you make all the raid times (Wed/Thurs/Sun/Mon 5:30pm-9:30pm AEST. Farm content means considerably less raid days): The only day that I cannot make at this stage is Sunday, as I dont finish work until 8ST.
How did you hear about us? Before transferring I checked out the wow progression site to see what top end guilds were available for me.
Do you disconnect often? Hardly ever.
I must say I am very disappointed that after 5 days I have not had a single reply on this application.
You applied a few days after Christmas and just before New Years (aka a time when a lot of people are away) and you're disappointed?
- Professions: You have LW - good prof, but only at 235? I understand that you get the bracer enchant at 500 so why is that still at such a low level?
- Going by your armory; not exalted with Therazane for the shoulder chant and not revered with Guardians of Hyjal for the caster helm chant.
First of all, when you apped and you told me, I said that we most likely wouldn't reply until the 5th of Jan cause we're not really raiding 25s.
That and if you want to be accessed properly, you should really log out in the gear and spec that you're applying as.
Skinning + Unlevelled LWing. Skinning isn't a raiding profession and LW is nice, only if it's levelled.
You've reforged crit off for haste which isn't bad but then you reforged haste on your belt into crit.
Spec is alright but you could just get runspeed+stam on your boots and get the improved range on totems talent. Running out of things isn't that hard, you really don't need isntant ghostwolf for it. There's also spiritwalker's grace for casting while moving.
You should also look into glyph of stoneclaw totem. It may sound like a pvp glyph but a 20k absorb or so is beyond useful.
As for your UI, looks like you click some major cooldowns like trinkets, NS, tide.
Also, do you honestly expect a quick reply if it looks like you've put 0 effort in making yourself and your application look good and worthwhile?

Wash and wipe the leaves. Cut the remaining stalk at the back of the leaves. Keep aside. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl. Add little water to form a paste.
Apply the paste to the back of a leaf (big) leaving the edges (about a cm) dry. Then place a smaller second leaf and apply paste to it. Then the third and repeat. You can add more leaves to make a thicker roll.
Now fold in the sides to meet at the middle (broader sides). Then the other two sides. This will form a rectangular flat cake. Now roll from one side to meet at the other end. Keep aside. Repeat to form the second roll. You may use more leaves and have more rolls. Make more paste as required.
Heat up a steamer or tondoor (with water in the bottom section). Place the rolls in the top section and steam for 30 minutes. Remove and allow to cool. Once cool cut into slices to form Patrade Pinwheels. Shallow fry each side in a little oil for a few minutes. You can store the remaining Rolls in refrigerator for future use.
Apply coconut chutney to bread slice to make 3 to 4 sandwich. Cut each sandwich into 4 parts. Place the sandwich in a flat serving dish leaving a gap between each sandwich part. Pour the beaten yoghurt on top of the sandwich and also between the sandwich pieces to form two levels. Sprinkle chaat Masala on top of the yoghurt, then one tablespoon of tamarind & dates chutney on top of the sandwich pieces. Now sprinkle the nylon sev all over the yoghurt and finally the coriander leaves.
Heat 2 table oil. Add chopped onion, garlic, ginger, chilli. When slightly fried add boiled and chopped potato. Add Powders and mix well. Add shredded chicken. Mix and add coriander leaves and salt. Remove and when slightly cool make lime sized balls.
Cut away the sides of the bread. Dip in water and immediately squeeze out the water by placing the slice sandwiched in your palms. Place the stuffing (chicken ball or any other stuffing ) in the middle of the bread slice. Sprinkle shredded cheese and then close the bread slice by pulling the ends towards the middle. Form balls and place this aside. You can dip the balls in bread crumbs at this stage.
Heat oil in a deep pan or you can shallow fry. When oil is hot, drop the bread balls with the bottom part of the ball (pulled ends) touching the oil first. When fried (after a minute or two) turn and fry the other side.
Remove to paper towels and then have with schezwan sauce or chilli sauce or tomato sauce or can be had plain.
Clean and cut chicken into pieces. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, mix and marinate for at least an hour in the refrigerator.
Beat one egg. Roll the chicken pieces (one by one) in the seasoned rice flour. Then dip in beaten egg, roll in breadcrumbs and deep fry till golden brown.
Heat a non-stick or Dosa pan. Apply little oil. Spread the batter on the pan- Close with lid and cook on medium heat. Apply little ghee or clarified butter. Remove when crisp.
Have with coconut chutney or sambhar or dry coconut chutney.

Rudolph Giuliani Criticizes an Anticorruption Crackdown in Romania
The representative also pointed to a June 28 statement issued by the embassy, along with the embassies of 11 other countries, which highlighted Romania's "considerable progress" in combating corruption and in building an effective rule of law. The statement, which came at a time when contentious alterations to the criminal code were moving through Parliament, also called on all parties involved to "avoid changes that would weaken the rule of law or Romania's ability to fight crime or corruption."
Romania, which joined the European Union in 2007, has been praised for its efforts to rein in graft in recent years, a drive that has resulted in thousands of convictions, including of former and current politicians.
However, starting in January 2017, the government pushed through measures that many fear will weaken the rule of law. Critics of the anticorruption drive accuse those involved of using it for political purposes and of relying heavily on the use of court-approved wiretaps, while its defenders say that the effort was under fire because of its success in going after vested interests and powerful individuals.
Last month, Laura Codruta Kovesi, the chief prosecutor of the Romanian National Anticorruption Directorate, was fired after accusations of overstepping her authority and damaging Romania's image abroad. The tensions have led to major protests, the most recent of which, on Aug. 10, resulted in violent clashes in Bucharest that left more than 400 people wounded.
Mr. Giuliani's letter was well received by some in Romania. Liviu Dragnea, the leader of the leftist Social Democratic Party, the biggest party in the Romanian Parliament, wrote on Facebook that Mr. Giuliani "puts his finger on the wound."
Mr. Dragnea was sentenced in June to three-and-a-half years in prison after Romania's highest court found him guilty of abuse of office related to the fictitious hiring of two of his party's employees at a public institution. He is appealing the verdict. In a separate case in 2015, Mr. Dragnea was convicted of electoral fraud and received a suspended sentence.
"Rudolph Giuliani is a famous federal prosecutor of the United States, who has fought with the mafia and corruption, and whose moral and professional probity commands respect all over the world," Mr. Dragnea said in a statement, adding that the scrutiny on what he called the "serious violation of human rights and of the principles of the rule of law" was welcome.

Returns to the OC
December 2, 2021 by Nancy Evans
'Tis the season for holiday fun and wonder! Recently, the Segerstrom Center for the Arts announced a three-year deal with American Ballet Theatre that runs through 2024. The deal includes premiere engagements of "The Nutcracker" each December. This event is a special one that we all look forward to. Sadly, COVID caused the show to be canceled last year, but it is back this month.
This will be the sixth year we get the event, and it will take place December 10th through the 19th at Segerstrom Hall.
EVENT PROMOTIONAL PHOTO
We have all heard the title, "The Nutcracker," and we have seen the commercials and animated movies or television specials. But what is this story about? well, it is Russian composer Pyotr Tchaikovsky's masterpiece. In this epic ballet, the performers tell the story of a young girl's journey to a magical land on Christmas Eve. Of all the ballets out there, this one is most likely the most popular, especially during the holidays. The ballet opens with a little girl named Marie who falls asleep after a party at her home. She dreams of a unbelievable world where her toys become larger-than-life characters. Her toy Nutcracker (Culkin) who developed into her imaginary bestie comes to life. He defends her from the evil Mouse King. In the end, he is turned into a Prince after Marie saves him. This is a timeless heartwarming story which has touched the hearts of people everywhere on the planet. Yes, this is a story that transcends borders and language.
World-renowned choreographer Alexei Ratmansky's production will include more than 100 performers and feature a rotating cast including all-star Hee Seo in the role of Clara, and Cory Stearns as The Prince on opening night, December 10th. Other dancers scheduled to take on the role of Clara include Isabella Boylston, Skylar Brandt, Catherine Hurlin, Christine Shevchenko, and Devon Teuscher. Other notable performers who will play The Prince include Joo Won Ahn, Aran Bell, Herman Cornejo, Thomas Forster, and James Whiteside.
Tickets begin at $30 and the venue has a COVID-19 policy for indoor performances. It requires everyone to provide proof of vaccination (a vaccination card, a picture of a vaccination card, or a digital vaccination record) or proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR test taken within 72 hours of the event. Masks are required indoors for everyone at the center at all times, regardless of vaccination status.

La Luz Mexican Grill Salmonella Outbreak
On August 28, the Larimer County Health Department announced 19 confirmed cases of Salmonella as part of an outbreak linked to La Luz Mexican Grill in Fort Collins, Colorado. Officials received the first complaint about the matter on August 17 and after further testing, La Luz voluntarily shut down on August 21.
Larimer County Health Department officials conducted a routine surprise inspection of the Old Town La Luz on Aug. 17, rating the kitchen as "fair" while citing a number of temperature violations and observing multiple flies in the kitchen. A follow-up inspection on Aug. 22 had determined that the location had corrected its violations.
The Old Town La Luz was cited as "unacceptable" in its previous routine surprise inspection in January 2017, when it was cited for temperature and cleanliness violations.
Officials are still investigating the exact cause of the outbreak.


Dr. Ayesha Siddiqa, teaching defense and strategy to Pakistani students, calls Pakistan's Founding Father and the national poet 'homosexuals'.
And Prof. A. H. Nayyar, an alumni of the largest university in Islamabad, is asking followers to fake evidence against Pakistan's founder in order to show him to young Pakistanis as someone who ate ham, which is prohibited for Muslims and Jews.
What's eating Prof. Nayyar and Dr. Siddiqa is that there is a revival taking place among young Pakistanis, the single largest group in a population of 170 million. The revival is unprecedented and seeks to renew faith in Pakistan. It is a reaction to anti-Pakistan reports and think-tank findings mainly in the United States over the past three years that sought to dismiss Pakistan as a nation on the verge of collapse. Pakistanis have also been galvanized by evidence showing Indians exporting terrorism into Pakistan from US-controlled Afghanistan.
The evidence against both teachers, presented here for the first time, indicates a major problem facing most Pakistani colleges and universities. A small but noisy group of professors is encouraging students to attack the very foundations of the Pakistani state.
This is alarming considering the timing and the regional instability resulting from America's Afghan war.
Both Dr. Siddiqa and Prof. Nayyar have access to one of the most influential Pakistani seats of learning, the Quaid-e-Azam University in the heart of the Pakistani capital. Both of them are also known to hold what many describe as views more sympathetic to Pakistan's regional detractors.
Dr. Siddiqa's statement was part of a discussion she had with an Indian journalist on Facebook on Feb. 10, 2010. A screen shot can be seen with this report. [Click here to see the actual conversation on Facebook].
Prof. Nayyar's statement came in a discussion on Feb. 8, 2010 by members of an Internet mailing list called Socialist Pakistan News. A screen shot is provided.
Bashing Pakistan, its history, the Pakistan Independence Movement, the Founding Fathers, and the country's military are common themes among some of these university professors. Coincidentally, most of them also happen to be very supportive of American and Indian criticism of Pakistan. In Dr. Siddiqa and Prof. Nayyar's cases, both of them are active members of so-called peace groups that explicitly embrace Indian hegemony in the region.
