A Friendly Fox And Friends Welcome To "We Are 53 Percent"
Reported by Aunty Em - October 14, 2011 -
If any more proof is needed that Fox "News" has taken a stand against Occupy Wall Street, one only has to look at the warm welcome given to Mike Wilson, described as "Conservative Filmmaker" and "Developer" of "We Are The 53 Percent," the newest Right Wing protest group on the 'Merkin political scene. While The 53ers seem to be quite a small group, that didn't stop the Foxy Friends (in the persona of Gretchen Carlson) from giving Wilson as warm an embrace as Fox "News" did Teabaggers…or Joe the Plumber. That's because Fox doesn't care how big or small a group is, as long as it's on the right side, pun intended. Clearly Fox "News" believes "We Are The 53%" is on the right side, as evidenced by the chyrons alone. As Wednesday's interview began the following words appeared at the bottom of the screen: Taking on 'Occupy Wall Street'; 'We are the 53 percent' claims middle ground. At the 23 second mark that's replaced by "Mike Wilson; Conservative Filmmaker" which, at the 33 second mark faded to "Mike Wilson; Developer, "We Are 53%." Oddly enough, this only stayed up on screen for a mere 3.5 seconds. Suddenly the chyron is dropped entirely so that Fox can show full screen the pictures that Wilson was currently talking about. WOW!!! Talk about synergy. It's almost like that was planned because Fox almost never drops the chyron unless it's for Hooters babes. Twenty seconds later the screen returned to a regular shot of Wilson with the words Counter protest movement; Telling Wall St Demonstrators to 'Suck it up' below him. Less than 10 seconds later those words are replaced by 'We are the 53%'; Blame themselves, politicians for their angst, followed a short time later by "Anti-Occupy Wall St Movement; Says be responsible for your own destiny." Media Matters also contrasted the treatment of OWS with this new group in an article titled "Fox Attacks '99 Percent' To Support '53 Percent,' " posted a day before this softball interview. As comprehensive as MMfA's article might be, as much—if not far more—is said by Gretchen's kiss, kiss, kiss ending to this interview. The Gretch wrapped it all up in a nice pretty bow for those who didn't get the less-than-subtle propaganda, "It's a very interesting reaction to what's going on on Wall Street. And we'll check back in with you because I have a feeling it's going to continue to grow." Translation: "We'll keep pushing your group and, just like we did for the Teabaggers, we'll help you grow." Watch:
Whenever I see a new face on Fox "News" I always use the Googlizer to see if I can find out some more about them. Of course Erick Erickson (mentioned in the interview as a co-founder of The 53ers) is a known quantity. He's the hate-monger who founded Red State [link redacted] and who famously called Supreme Court Judge Souter a "goat fucking child molester." After that, strangely enough, Erikson given a perch to pontificate at CNN, after that network finally washed their hands of Glenn Beck. However, the name "Mike Wilson" was unknown to me as anything other than the name of a Beach Boy. In less than two minutes on Der Google I learned all I needed to know about Mike Wilson and why Fox "News" would promote his latest venture. "Conservative Filmmaker" should have been my first clue. It's none other than THAT Mike Wilson, producer, director, cinematographer, and star of the 2004 full-length documentary "Michael Moore Hates America." Nuff said!

Royal Atlantis Residences
The first round of formal sales of apartments at Dubai's next prestige project, The Royal Atlantis Residences on the Palm, starts on Saturday 28th January.
Reinforcing and reimagining one of the world's most iconic hospitality brands, KPF designed Phase 2 of Dubai's Royal Atlantis to create unprecedented spaces that elevate the experience of guests in bold new ways.
Building on the success of the current Atlantis resort, the dramatic openings that define Phase 2 punctuate a striking new icon for Dubai. Maximising exposure to the Gulf and the unparalleled Dubai skyline, landscaped sky-courts and terraces ensure that a substantial portion of the hotel rooms and residences have outdoor space, private pools, and shaded gardens. These sky-courts and terraces are designed to maximise guest experience by amplifying shading and directing prevailing breezes over water and vegetation. This creates private oases that are passively cooled and comfortable for much of the day, most of the year.
The new Atlantis project features a standout design that gives the suggestion of entire floors being suspended and with extensive free spaces in between. The project will also have an extensive hotel component of 795 rooms. The building will go up to a height of 193 metres, with the hotel side going up to 43 storeys and the residential capping it at 37 levels. A standout feature will be an all-day 'sky pool', set at 100 metres high.

But luckily as we predicted, it was reported as non- cancerous.Hence the removal of breast was avoided. She was back to normal in no time and discharged. The patient and her family are completely satisfied and happy now. The trust that they had on us was the prime tool that made us look at the case in research perspective and to draw a stern diagnostic conclusion. When you have the trust on someone,it adds up the responsibility of that person and the result is definitely fruitful. It always brings happiness and peace to the concerned person and their surroundings. In this particular case where a diagnosis of cancer had been made and the patient was ad viced to undergo whole breast removal as done for cancer.
We could avoid the disfiguring, traumatic surgery by proper clinical correlation. The message is that whenever you have a doubt take a second opinion particularly from an oncologist from a reputed Oncology center. We at Harshamitra have Tumor board consisting of three oncologists for each patient. Our decisions seldom goes wrong. You can take the opinion of our tumor board and proceed with the treatment at your own convenient place . But visit us once whenever you doubt cancer.

Introductory comment: Following Diocesan Convention in October, Bishop Scanlan asked a group of lay and clergy members of the diocese to reflect on what we heard about the Bishop's vision for the diocese as it was articulated in her convention sermon and address. We, the members of the Bishop's Address Team, commend, therefore, our reflections on her vision to you, for your own reflection and action.
The Holy Spirit's call: The Spirit's call to us doesn't always make us comfortable. The Spirit's enlightening and empowering work often calls us to new ways of understanding old truths.
Vision for the future: A vision for the future should arise within the heart and soul of the Body of Christ, from each and every member of that Body. The vision we harbor might lack specificity, but that is intentional; our diocese is unique and is different from other dioceses. This vision will be suited to the circumstances of our time, not times past or times that lie far in the future.
How will we manage to move into the future? Discovery, Experimentation, Creativity and Collaboration. These four tools can allow God's renewed call to us can emerge within us.
Tools for this process: These four tools: Discovery, Experimentation, Creativity and Collaboration, offer antidotes to a mindset of scarcity.
Abundance –or-scarcity?: Scarcity is the flipside of abundance, and there is ample evidence that the people of God in Central Pennsylvania can rejoice in the abundance of God's blessings. But the Parable of the Rich Fool (Luke 12: 13 – 21) shows the folly of a misplaced focus, of living a lie defined by what you have, not who you are in a life with God. Grain in the barn can last only so long, perhaps a season or two. We are called by the Lord to live out the Gospel not in an environment of scarcity, but abundance, not in an environment of despair, but hope, not in an environment that proclaims "every person for herself or himself", but in an environment in which, as we collaborate with the Spirit and with one another, we experience the Kingdom of God and proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Experimenting: As the Lord leads us and as the Holy Spirit enlightens us, we can experiment with generosity, and we can experiment with creative possibilities, developing an attitude that sits lightly with failure, seeing failure as a form of discerning a renewed sense of God's call.
Jesus' way is the Way of Love Turn, Learn, Pray, Worship, Bless, Go, Rest. These are the Lord's practices.
Aligning ourselves with the Way of Love: When we turn to the Way – the Way of Love, Jesus' way, we align ourselves with what really matters, and everything else – abundance and scarcity, joy and fear, endowments and leaking roofs – all of that falls into place.
What next, then? Discerning God's actions and God's will empowers us to encounter what surprises God has in store for us. We come, fully expectant and open to discovering what surprises God has in store. United by Jesus' practices of the Way of Love, we can be built up into a united people, formed into His image and gifted with a common voice and a common witness to the Good News of God in Christ, as God's call to us is worked out in the contexts of our own communities, parishes and convocations.
Onward! God's Kingdom is in our midst. God's call is ever new. Let us simply shine God's light upon it and celebrate the love, the grace, the healing and the restorative power it offers.


The Government has recently released some up to date and new statistics on motorbike accidents. It makes for sobering reading, and highlights the fact that motorcyclists are in one of the highest risk categories of road user. You can see a synopsis of the report below.
Motorbike riders are nearly 40 times as likely to be killed in a road accident when compared to those in a car or lorry.
Over 300 riders were involved in a fatality in the year 2013 with nearly 5,000 suffering from a serious injury.
If you have been unfortunate enough to be involved in an accident on your bike and have been injured then we can help. Today we launched our motorbike accident claims page which contains details on how you can claim for compensation.


AG Bikes is a relatively 'young' enterprise, borne from the enthusiasm and passion which Andrew George Brown, known to many as 'AG' has always had for trials.
The trials shop and work shop are set in the beautiful location of Swaledale, right in the heart of Scott Trial and Reeth Three Day Trial country.
Andrew is a builder by trade, keeping up the family tradition, just as his father and generations of Browns in Swaledale before him have done. On leaving school, Andrew joined the family firm as an apprentice, attending college and after qualifying, becoming more involved with the running of the family business and seeing it grow from strength to strength. In his own time AG's passion has always been trials, watching and riding from an early age.
AG has always had an underlying desire to run a trials shop and eventually took the plunge a few years ago. Using existing premises to create a trials shop and well appointed work shop, AG Bikes was born. AG Bikes, like GE Brown & Son, the building side of the business, www.gebrownandson.co.uk , is a family affair, based at The Old Mill, just outside of Low Row, and is also home to Andrew and his family. Everyone pitches in with their own roles, with AG's parents still staying involved with the businesses and his wife Ros working in the Office. His eldest daughter Charlotte works as Chief Coffee Maker and manages the website and social media side of the business.
As well as running the building business Andrew also carries out mechanicing and was joined in 2011 by Mick Jackson, 'Jacko'. Jacko started trials riding in 1976 on a TY80 then moved onto Fantics, 125, 200 and 240. Jacko then took up road racing and was riding a 125 MT Honda in 1984 and won the 80cc British Championship on a Suzuki in 1988. In 1992 he had sponsorship from Carson Beattie over in Northern Ireland and raced for him for 4 years, winning the championship in 1992. Jacko finished racing in 2005 and in 2009 started working for Ian Lougher with Matt Jackson on 125 and 250 Hondas, then in 2010 with Connor Cummins at BSB Superstock 1000cc. With Ian, Jacko has done the Roads Northwest 200, TT Races, Southern 100, Scarborough and Ulster Grand Prix.
The bike shop usually has a good stock of new Shercos and a wide range of Sherco spares. It also stocks the day to day spares for other brands and anything not in stock can usually be ordered for next day delivery. AG Bikes can also supply and brand of new bike and have a good range of second hand bikes of mixed brands. There is a good range of helmets, boots and clothing in the newly furbished shop and well appointed workshop facilities offering welding and specialist tuning, porting, etc. As established riders themselves, AG and Jacko have a good understanding of the customer's needs. One of the big advantages of getting your bike here is that AG Bikes are fortunate to have test sections right next to the shop, so customers can 'try and buy'.
Both AG and Jacko have an interest in restoration works and have restored Bultacos, a TY Pinky and a Fantic 240.
Growing up in Swaledale, AG's first recollections of trialing are watching the Scott Trial at Surrender with his father Edward admiring the likes of Malcolm Rathmell, Martin Lampkin and of course local star Richard Sunter.
AG's first bike was a BSA bought for £15 and costing another £15 to get it up and running at about the age of 10. Once 17 he could ride the famous Scott Trial himself and did so for many years before taking on a marshal's roll.
At the age of 17 AG and his mates had heard of the SSDT and were keen to go, so set off to Fort William, not really having any idea where they were heading. This was before the days of Satnav and were armed with a map and a crib sheet of road names and junctions to get there. Today, another 30 odd years on, he could drive up there on auto pilot. AG has ridden the SSDT most years since his early 20s and if not riding has usually been up watching, one year having joined the late Norman Pickles and team for a couple of days of observing.
From an early age Andrew started going to Richmond Motor Club meetings with some of the older local lads and has had a long involvement with the Club, including a spell as Sports Secretary in the mid to late 80s. As a young newly wed in the early 90s, Andrew was also a keen supporter of the move for RMC to take over the running of the Scott Trial from Darlington & DMC and was assistant clerk of course to good friend Derek White, clerk of course for many years. Andrew's wife Ros also became involved with The Scott, helping out in the Results Room and as treasurer for many years.
Andrew was also one of the founders of the Reeth Two Day trial, which was dreamt up over a few drinks in the Alexandra Hotel in Fort William one SSDT together with some other RMC members. Eleven years ago building on the success of the two day, the trial evolved in to the very popular Reeth Three Day Trial it is today.
Today AG is still an active member of Richmond Motor Club as one of the clerks of course for the Reeth Three Day Trial and with Ros, organises sponsorship, souvenir programmes and polo shirts. He is handy as C of C for the GE Brown Trophy Trial at Crackpot. A few years ago he was C of C for the Adult British Championship round which was run on the doorstep at Low Row. He is still involved with the Scott Trial as a committee member, marking out and picking up books on the day, as is Ros who is Scott Trials Results Team coordinator. His eldest daughter Charlotte now assists on the day as well. AG still enjoys riding both local events and still makes his pilgrimage in May each year to ride or watch the SSDT.


The population southwest of Bujumbura now has easier access to drinking water, thanks to an ICRC water-supply project carried out in partnership with REGIDESO, Burundi's water company.
People living on Buhonga hill, southwest of the capital, can now get water from six refurbished spring-fed tap stands and a new water tower. Women and children will no longer have to walk long distances to collect drinking water.
Water from 32 natural springs is drawn from the surrounding hills to feed the water tower below.
Any surplus from the 150-m3 tank will increase water pressure in the system for the greater area.
The November 2017 ground-breaking ceremony was attended by Burundi's Minister of Energy and Mining. The project has improved the quality and availability of water in the area and reduced the risk of water-borne diseases.
Many local residents attended the celebration, which was made all the more special by tambourine-playing and traditional dances.
To improve water access for people living south of Bujumbura and reduce the risk of water-borne diseases, the ICRC and REGIDESO refurbished existing tap stands and built a water tower. The tower feeds new tap stands below and increases water pressure in the greater area south of the city.

Francis Galton (1822-1911)
Sir Francis Galton was a British science writer and amateur researcher of the late nineteenth century. He contributed greatly to the fields of statistics, experimental psychology and biometry. In the history of biology, Galton is widely regarded as the originator of the early twentieth century eugenics movement. Galton published influential writings on nature versus nurture in human personality traits, developed a family study method to identify possible inherited traits, and devised laws of genetic inheritance prior to the rediscovery of Gregor Mendel's work.

Leon Richard Kass (1939- )
A PhD and medical doctor turned ethicist, Leon Kass calls himself an unlicensed humanist. Throughout his unique career he has sought to impact others and engage important cultural issues. This he has accomplished over the course of many years by studying biochemistry, teaching humanities, writing articles and books on ethics, and serving as chair of the President's Council on Bioethics.

Charles Benedict Davenport (1866-1944)
Charles Benedict Davenport was an early twentieth-century experimental zoologist. Davenport founded both the Station for Experimental Evolution and the Eugenics Record Office at Cold Spring Harbor in New York. Though he was a talented statistician and skilled scientist, Davenport's scientific achievements are eclipsed by his lasting legacy as the scientific leader of the eugenics movement in the US.
Vincenz Czerny (1842–1916)
Vincenz Czerny was a surgeon in the nineteenth century who specialized in cancer and women's surgical care. Czerny performed one of the first breast augmentations using a reconstruction method to correct asymmetry and disfigurement of a woman's breasts. Additionally, Czerny improved the safety and efficacy of existing operations, such as the vaginal hysterectomy, which involves the surgical removal of some or all of a woman's reproductive structures. He contributed to other surgeries involving the esophagus, kidneys, and intestines.
Edwin Carlyle (Carl) Wood (1929–2011)
Edwin Carlyle Wood, also known as Carl Wood, was a physician who helped develop in vitro fertilization, or IVF, treatments. From 1964 to 1992, Wood worked as a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, where he was one of the first in the world to lead a team of physicians to establish IVF as a proven treatment for infertility. IVF refers to a medical procedure in which scientists inseminate an egg cell with a sperm cell outside of the body, such as in a glass dish in a clinical setting.

Pope Innocent XI (1611-1689)
Pope Innocent XI, born Benedetto Odescalchi, made considerable contributions to the Roman Catholic approach to embryology by condemning several propositions on liberal moral theology in 1679, including two related to abortion and ensoulment. His rejection of these principles strengthened the Church's stance against abortion and for the idea of "hominization," meaning the presence of human qualities before birth.

David Starr Jordan (1851-1931)
David Starr Jordan studied fish and promoted eugenics in the US during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. In his work, he embraced Charles Darwin s theory of evolution and described the importance of embryology in tracing phylogenic relationships. In 1891, he became the president of Stanford University in Stanford, California. Jordan condemned war and promoted conservationist causes for the California wilderness, and he advocated for the eugenic sterilization of thousands of Americans.
Father Frank Pavone (1959- )
Father Frank Pavone, a key proponent of the Roman Catholic Church's pro-life movement, has devoted his life's work to ending abortion, euthanasia, embryonic stem cell research, and other techniques and procedures that he believes threaten human life from conception to death. His contributions to the pro-life movement include founding a new religious order called the Missionaries of the Gospel of Life and participating in high-profile protests and television interviews for the pro-life cause.
Gunther von Hagens (1945- )
Gunther von Hagens invented a plastination technique and created Body Worlds, a traveling exhibit that has made anatomy part of the public domain. Von Hagens invented the plastination technique in 1977 while working at Heidelberg University in Heidelberg, Germany. Von Hagen's plastination technique preserves real bodies and tissues by the removal of the fluid and replacement with resin. Body Worlds features three-dimensional, plastinated human bodies.
Subject: People, Outreach, Reproduction
Pope John Paul II (1920-2005)
Pope John Paul II's views on abortion and embryology have been very influential to the Roman Catholic Church. He strictly forbade abortion and other threats to what he regarded as early human life in his encyclical entitled "Evangelium Vitae," meaning the "Gospel of Life." His authority on moral and social issues was highly regarded during his lifetime.
Howard Wilber Jones Jr.
Howard Wilber Jones Jr. and his wife, Georgeanna Seegar Jones, developed a method of in vitro fertilization and helped create the first baby in the US using that method. Though the first in vitro baby was born in England in 1978, Jones and his wife's contribution allowed for the birth of Elizabeth Carr on 28 December 1981. Jones, a gynecologist and an obstetrician, researched human reproduction for most of his life.
Pope Sixtus V (1520-1590)
Known for dropping a long-held distinction in the Catholic Church between the animated and unanimated fetus, Felice Peretti was born in Grottamare, Italy, in 1521, son of a Dalmatian gardener. In his early years, Peretti worked as a swineherd, but soon became involved in the local Minorite convent in Montalto, where he served as a novice at the age of twelve. He went on to study in Montalto, Ferrara, and Bologna, continuing his devotion to religious life, and in 1547 Peretti was ordained as priest in the city of Siena.
Gregory Goodwin Pincus (1903-1967)
Gregory Goodwin Pincus, one of the original researchers responsible for the development of the first oral contraceptive pill, was born in Woodbine, New Jersey, on 19 April 1903 to Russian Jewish parents. In 1924 Pincus received his BS degree from Cornell University, and in 1927 he received his MS and PhD from Harvard University, having studied under William Ernest Castle and William John Crozier.
James Marion Sims (1813-1883)
James Marion Sims developed a surgical cure for ruptures of the wall separating the bladder from the vagina during labor, ruptures called vesico-vaginal fistulas, and he developed techniques and tools used to improve reproductive examinations and health care for women in the US during the nineteenth century. Sims's lateral examination position allowed doctors to better see the vaginal cavity, and his speculum, a spoon-like object used for increased view into the vagina, helped to make gynecological examinations more thorough.
Harry Hamilton Laughlin (1880-1943)
Harry Hamilton Laughlin helped lead the eugenics
movement in the United States during the early twentieth century.
The US eugenics movement of the early twentieth century sought to
reform the genetic composition of the United States population through
sterilization and other restrictive reproductive measures. Laughlin
worked as superintendent and assistant director of the Eugenics
Research Office (ERO) at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in Cold
Spring Harbor, New York, alongside director Charles Davenport.
Katharine McCormick (1876-1967)
Katharine Dexter McCormick, who contributed the majority of funding for the development of the oral contraceptive pill, was born to Josephine and Wirt Dexter on 27 August 1875 in Dexter, Michigan. After growing up in Chicago, Illinois, she attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where she graduated in 1904 with a BS in biology. That same year, she married Stanley McCormick, the son of Cyrus McCormick, inventor and manufacturer of the mechanized reaper.
Robert Geoffrey Edwards (1925-2013)
Robert Geoffrey Edwards worked with Patrick Christopher Steptoe to develop in-vitro fertilization (IVF) techniques during the 1960s and 1970s in the United Kingdom. Louise Brown, the world' s first "test-tube baby," was born as a result of Edwards and Steptoe's IVF techniques in 1978, and since then more than four million children have been born using IVF techniques. Publicity and controversy accompanied Edwards and Steptoe's work as conservative religious institutions expressed concern over the morality of the IVF procedure.
Min Chueh Chang (1908-1991)
As one of the researchers involved in the development of the oral contraceptive pill, Min Chueh Chang helped to revolutionize the birth control movement. Although best known for his involvement with "the pill," Chang also made a number of discoveries throughout his scientific career involving a range of topics within the field of reproductive biology. He published nearly 350 articles in scientific journals.
Landrum Brewer Shettles (1909-2003)
Landrum Brewer Shettles is remembered as an important contributor to early in vitro fertilization research in the United States as well as a prolific author on the subject of choosing a child's sex before conception. Shettles was born in Pontotoc County, Mississippi on 21 November 1909 to Sue Mounce and Brazil Manly. Shettles trained and worked as a gynecologist at Columbia University Presbyterian Medical Center, after receiving his MD in 1943 from Johns Hopkins University.
John Hunter (1728–1793)
John Hunter studied human reproductive anatomy, and in eighteenth century England, performed one of the earliest described cases of artificial insemination. Hunter dissected thousands of animals and human cadavers to study the structures and functions of organ systems. Much of his anatomical studies focused on the circulatory, digestive, and reproductive systems. He helped to describe the exchange of blood between pregnant women and their fetuses. Hunter also housed various natural collections, as well as thousands of preserved specimens from greater than thirty years of anatomy work.
Pierre Budin (1846-1907)
Pierre Constant Budin worked in France to improve the lives of newborns and their mothers during the late nineteenth century. Budin stressed the importance of proper nutrition in infants and educated new mothers on breastfeeding and infant care. Budin established infant care facilities and created a nutritional check-up system for infants. Budin helped design early artificial nipples, breast pumps, and incubators for premature newborns. He also began the practice of consulting with new mothers after they gave birth, redefining the roles of obstetricians.
John Charles Rock (1890-1984)
Born on 24 March 1890 in Marlborough, Massachusetts, to Ann and Frank Rock, John Charles Rock was both a devout Catholic and one of the leading investigators involved in the development of the first oral contraceptive pill. In 1925 he married Anna Thorndike, with whom he later had five children. He spent over thirty years of his career as a clinical professor of obstetrics at Harvard Medical School, and in 1964 the Center for Population Studies of the Harvard School of Public Health established the John Rock Professorship.
Nettie Maria Stevens (1861-1912)
Multiple theories about what determines sex were tested at the turn of the twentieth century. By experimenting on germ cells, cytologist Nettie Maria Stevens collected evidence to support the connection between heredity and the sex of offspring. Stevens was able to interpret her data to conclude that chromosomes have a role in sex determination during development. For her time, she was an emerging breed: a woman of science making the leap from the world of data collection to that of male-dominated interpretive work.
George Nicholas Papanicolaou (1883–1962)
George Nicholas Papanicolaou developed the Pap test in the United States during the twentieth century. The Pap test is a diagnostic procedure used to test for cervical cancer in women. Papanicolaou's work helped improve the reproductive health of women by providing an effective means of identifying precancerous cells and improving the likelihood of early treatment and survival of cervical cancer.
Albert William Liley (1929–1983)
Albert William Liley advanced the science of fetal physiology and the techniques of life-saving in utero blood transfusions for fetuses with Rh incompatibility, also known as hemolytic disease. Due to his advances, fetuses too young to survive premature delivery, and likely to die in utero if their Rh incompabilities were left untreated, were successfully transfused and carried to term. Liley was as passionate as a clinician and researcher as he was about his views on the rights of the unborn.

Naujamiestis (New Town) Borough of Kaunas
The New Town with its grid layout of streets dates to the late 19th century. This district lies entirely to the east of the Old Town. It was built by the Russian Empire as the administrative center of Kaunas Fortress which surrounded the city during the same era.
Because of its military importance, there was a tradition that no building may exceed 2 floors (+attic) in size. Therefore even the most important buildings such as the former fortress HQ are not tall, but expansive. The main exception is the Kaunas Sobor (Soboras) in the center of a small square. This imposing Russian Orthodox Church with its shining dome was built for officers of the military fortress. After the independence of Lithuania (1918) the Russian military departed and the church became Roman Catholic. It still remains the church of the army.

The independence changed the building size restrictions as well. New Town became the downtown of what effectively became the country's capital. Many stately buildings were constructed here, among them the Central Post building (1931), Parliament building (1928), Officers Club (1937), Savings Bank Palace (1940) and "Pienocentras" company HQ (1931). Most construction took place in the 1930s when the prevailing style was art deco with Bauhaus influences. The building facades typically have many rounded geometrical elements and some sharp corners.
Among the more recent additions is Mykolas Žilinskas Art Gallery (near Sobor), the Lithuania's main encyclopedic museum of foreign art (Lithuanian collectors donated the exhibits from Babylonian cuneiform to impressionism).
Kaunas central post building (near the western end of Laisvės alėja) is a good example of Kaunas interwar architecture that uses both curved and sharp corners. ©Augustinas Žemaitis.
The undisputed main street of New Town is Laisvės alėja (Freedom Avenue). Once the only pedestrian boulevard in the Soviet Union the street had been the heart of the city long before Soviet occupation. Most of city's major 1880-1940 era buildings are to be found along this street and Romas Kalanta self-immolated himself against the Soviet regime here as well, triggering a global protest. There is now a monument to him in front of the Musical Theater, itself a high-society hub since its opening in 1892, built immediately beyond the former city wall (remains are visible). In the 2000s, however, the urban entertainment largely relocated again to the Old Town and the new shopping malls. Some restaurants and the theaters remain in Laisvės alėja but nightlife is scarce.

In the eastern reaches of Naujamiestis (at the other end of Laisvės alėja) there is the Ramybės (Calmness) park. This used to be Kaunas prime cemetery until Soviets demolished it (1959), destroying the elaborate tombstones and memorials (among them Darius and Girėnas mausoleum). Few of them have been rebuilt (Homeland defenders, 1941 June uprising). Luckily three religious buildings which once centered minority sections of the cemetery survived intact and are still city-wide hubs for the Muslim and Russian Orthodox communities. Lithuania's only non-wooden mosque (named after Vytautas the Great) subtly unites art deco style with Arabic influences. One Russian Orthodox church (Ressurection) dates to 1862 while the neighboring one (Virgin Mary Revelation) was constructed by the Lithuanian government in 1935 after the Sobor was ceded to the Catholics.
The June uprising memorial in Ramybės park is one of many patriotic monuments in the New Town of Kaunas. ©Augustinas Žemaitis.
The northern part of Naujamiestis is centered around Vienybės (Unity) square. This patriotic heart of pre-WW2 Kaunas hosts Freedom statue, sculptures of the Lithuania's founding fathers, a grave of an unknown soldier and other monuments (rebuilt after Soviet destruction).
Major national museums were also constructed here. National Vytautas the Great War Museum (1934) is the most famous. It shares its building (a nice example of monumental art deco) with Čiurlionis art gallery , dedicated to Lithuania's most famous symbolist painter. The War museum tower houses a 49-bell Belgian carillon. Created in 1935 it is still played every Saturday and Sunday afternoon (16:00) providing free concerts for everyone in the Unity square (video).
Further north, right in the line of interwar apartment buildings next to the slope of Žaliakalnis hill, there is a newer Devil museum of sculptor Antanas Žmuidzinavičius who collected various statues of devils and other demons from all over the world.

In the south of Naujamiestis right next to Nemunas river stands the largest shopping mall in Kaunas known as Akropolis (80,000 m²): a repurposed pre-war factory with new multi-storey parking towering above Karaliaus Mindaugo Avenue on the bank of Nemunas. Akropolis also serves as an entertainment hub with ice rink, cinema, bowling and many restaurants. In the island of Nemunas, the new Kaunas arena stands. With 17 000 seats, this arena is the largest in the Baltics providing a home to international gigs and Žalgiris basketball team.
Holy Cross (Carmelite) church is partly outflanked by these modern developments but it still hosts a nice Baroque interior with 17th-century frescoes.

Miss Manners: Work is not the place for baby,…
Miss Manners: Work is not the place for baby, wedding shower
By Judith Martin, Nicholas Ivor Martin and Jacobina Martin | United Feature Syndicate
October 13, 2007 at 7:36 p.m.
DEAR MISS MANNERS: I'm an old guy – 60 – and as guys we don't want to be invited to or attend office wedding and baby showers. In my day, these were by and for women.
Fine. If they like them, go for it.
But we don't like them, and we don't want to go to them. We all complain about it among ourselves, but none of us has the testosterone-makers to tell the women at the office to leave us off the guest list.
How do we get the message out? Stop the madness. Leave us guys out!
GENTLE READER: Trust Miss Manners: You don't want to make this a gender issue.
Not unless your idea of manly fun is to have the shower contingent challenge the sensitivity of your feelings toward your female colleagues at tender moments in their lives. Plus, they are bound to point out to you that as many males as females get married and have children.
But wait. Miss Manners has a plan to strengthen your case.
Make it a workplace issue. The case you should make is that personal celebrations – which include birthdays as well as marriages and births – should not be celebrated in the office.
Unlike retirement or promotion parties, they do not relate to work matters and should be celebrated with friends on their own time. Colleagues who have become friends will presumably want to be involved, but those with merely a working relationship should not be conscripted.
Yes, there will be those who protest at your heartlessness. But the gentlemen are already on your side, and you will be joined by those ladies who are tired of donating money, being tempted to eat cake and having their work interrupted for social celebrations on behalf of people with whom they have no real social relationship.
DEAR MISS MANNERS: What is the proper etiquette when eating in a coffee shop restaurant where paper napkins are used?
I put it beside my plate when the meal is finished. My friend said she had been told to put it on the empty plate. To me it looks awful to have a soiled napkin on top of a soiled plate.
GENTLE READER: Actually, it is not a soiled napkin so much as a bit of paper trash. But if we are to pretend that it is a napkin, as Miss Manners supposes we must in the absence of decent linen, you have identified the proper place for it to be placed.
DEAR MISS MANNERS: My son and I have a disagreement about who should receive a thank you note.
He joined his girlfriend's family on a vacation when they were given the use of a beautiful house by a work acquaintance of the husband. I contend that my son needs only thank the family who invited him and not the owner of the house. The owner of the house gifted the use of it to the family, and my son was their guest. He says both should be thanked. What is the correct etiquette?
GENTLE READER: Etiquette does not absolutely require a letter in such a case. But it strictly forbids parents from ever discouraging their children from writing thank you letters. Miss Manners suggests that you think of it as his giving his hosts another present – that of hearing their benefactor say, "What a polite young man your daughter is seeing."
Miss Manners is the pseudonym of Judith Martin. E-mail your etiquette questions to Miss Manners at MissManners@unitedmedia.com. She cannot reply personally to questions.

In Elaine Faber's brand new series Mrs.Odboddy Hometown patriot you will meet a fun and witty cast of characters, a fresh new story and enjoy hours of fast-paced humorous reading.
…the historical setting is well-researched and well rendered, and the writing is strong.
I loved this book and especially its main character, she is an old woman really smart, funny and ironic, the ideal grandmother.
This book has everything a cozy should have- danger, odd characters, unusual circumstances, wacky names. With a name like Odboddy you expect it to be silly. The book delivers with a punch and so much more!
I loved this story it was great full of funny situations that make you laugh along with mystery and adventure and even Mrs. Roosevelt makes an appearance.
This was a quirky cozy that was filled with quirky characters, Mrs. Oddbody being the quirkiest of all. She was hilarious at times.
Set in a small town on the Southern California coast, Mrs. Odboddy is a book filled with traditional American themes, a couple of intriguing mysteries, and the reminder that everyone, regardless of one's age, needs to be willing to make whatever sacrifice is needed by your country.


Odell Beckham Jr. is an absolute freak. While he's not on the football field Beckham is proving that he could probably join in on next month's NBA dunk contest if he wanted to with this is Instagram video of himself performing insane dunks.
Dude can do it all.

Q: What does map(-2:2, rnorm, n = 5) do? Why? What does map_dbl(-2:2, rnorm, n = 5) do? Why? This is a problem in R for data science by Hadley.
The results for map(-2:2, rnorm, n = 5)  is a list of 5 double vector.
and  map_dbl(-2:2, rnorm, n = 5) is a error says "Error: Result 1 is not a length 1 atomic vector".
But I don't know why.
Thanks.

A: map(-2:2, rnorm, n = 5) is the list of vectors rnorm(-2, n=5), rnorm(-1, n=5), rnorm(0, n=5), rnorm(1, n=5), rnorm(2, n=5).
Since these vectors have not length 1, map_dbl(-2:2, rnorm, n = 5) throws an error. For example map_dbl(-2:2, rnorm, n = 1) does not return an error, it is the vector made of rnorm(-2, n=1), rnorm(-1, n=1), rnorm(0, n=1), rnorm(1, n=1), rnorm(2, n=1).

LINEN: UNIQUELY EUROPEAN
Cultivated at close-proximity, flax is grown in a wide coastal band of Western Europe stretching from the South of Normandy in Northern France through Belgium and the Netherlands : from Caen to Amsterdam. The only plant textile fiber originating on the continent, European linen cultivation cannot be relocated, its excellence is thanks to a unique combination : a natural, damp ocean climate, flax's low thermal density, a rich soil and the experience of flax growers.
AN UNUSUAL INDUSTRY
10 000 companies in 14 European Union countries are involved in the linen industry. Flax cultivation has a unique role in the agro-industial industry.
From plant to finished fabrics, all stages of production and transformation are represented and different professions in the industry work together from growers and scutchers to spinners, weavers, knitters, finishers and traders.
N°1 WORLDWIDE
80% of the world's production of scutched flax fibers are originated from Europe, and France is the world leader. Flax is a rare product which represents less than 1% of all textile fibers consumed worldwide.

ATL plug Gambino The Goat has organized a simmering trap collab, "Breathe Again," featuring the talents of Eearz and Lotto Savage, the latter whom told his story to HNHH last month. Eearz presented a fierce, wholly authentic street energy on his Eearz To Da Streets project, released via Ear Drummers last year, and though he hasn't dropped too much since, his presence here is unmissable, lending a knockout hook in a demonic falsetto. The dark, minimal trap production comes from 30 Roc, also a member of the Ear Drummers team. Lotto Savage closes the record with an invigorating verse about the culinary arts. Take a deep breath before pressing play on this one.
"Breathe Again" is set to appear on Gambino's upcoming mixtape, The Streets Inspiration, which is set to arrive in early 2017.

Star: RAWANG: National Service (NS) candidates with medical conditions that would exempt them from physical training will not be selected for the programme beginning next year.
NS Training Department director-general Datuk Abdul Hadi Awang Kechil said these candidates were currently categorised as conditionally accepted after they sent in their medical declaration forms and were exempted from vigorous physical activities during training.
"This is to ensure that there are no untoward incidences," he told a press conference after launching a first-aid course at the NS camp in Temasya Rimba Templer yesterday.
Abdul Hadi said these trainees often became bored whenever their fellow trainees went for physical activities.
"There is no point in asking a trainee to just stay idle while his peers take part in various exercises," he said.
Another measure to reduce the number of illnesses and deaths from health problems included allowing trainees to label as "unsure", in the list of 33 illnesses in their medical declaration form.
"NS officials and medical staff at camps will monitor trainees who tick 'unsure' more closely. In addition to this, trainees who have marked 'yes' to any illnesses will immediately be scrutinised by medical staff at camps upon reporting for duty," Abdul Hadi said.
Previously, the form carried only a yes and no column for trainees to tick if they suffered from any of the listed illnesses.
The three-day first-aid course, held in collaboration with the Malaysian Red Crescent Society, is aimed at equipping NS camp management and staff with basic first-aid knowledge.
It was the second instalment of the programme, the first having trained some 200 NS personnel in level one first-aid emergency basics.
Abdul Hadi said the department also hoped to impart first-aid skills to some 500,000 trainees through the programme.


Retractable leash has become very popular in our country. We are seeing dog owners taking their furry friend to walk with this leash. But unlike popular beliefs, a retractable leash is an extended, thin cord wound around a spring instrument dwelling inside a plastic handle. These types of leashes have been formulated to fit comfortably in the human hands. Humans control the degree of the cord to be extended through a button given on the handle.
If your pooch is powerful (by powerful we mean strong, good-sized dog) and he runs at full speed, the cord can snap. This will put your dog in danger along with the thing that he is chasing. The cord can even snap back at you and cause injury.
When you grab the cord of a retractable leash in an effort to reel in your dog it can lead to a fatal accident wherein you can get entangled in the cord resulting in burns, cut and even amputation. Several dog owners have experienced being pulled out of their feet when their pooch reached the leash end and kept going. This led to bruises, broken bones, and road rash.
Many dogs fear from the sound of a dropped retractable leash leading to a situation that causes them to run off and the worst part is that the very thing that he is afraid of is now chasing him. If the leash is retracting while he is running the handle will more often than not gain ground on him which will make the confrontation worse. Even if things do not turn into worst possible scenario then also the doggie will forever fear while walking with you on leash.
Dogs enjoy pulling at the edge of the leash which is a good thing for him, but other dogs who see him consider this as an aggressive behavior because they will not be able to see you far away which will make the situation worse.
Dogs that run out the leash end up getting abrupt movement of their necks resulting in neck injuries, spine injuries and lacerated trachea.
While training your pooch, it is strictly recommended to avoid using a retractable leash as it only encourages the doggie to pull on the leash causing serious injuries and the worst part is it is harder for you to correct it. Before using this leash, teach your pooch "come" and "heel" commands. Remember, a retractable leash symbolizes freedom. So let your tyke earn that freedom by winning your confidence first!! So are you going to use a retractable leash on your pooch? Let us know your views in the form of comments.
