Unfortunately, there has been a spate of catastrophic events in the last few months. The Sandy Hook shooting, Boston marathon terror attack and now most recently the devastating tornados in Oklahoma cumulatively pose a threat to the sense of safety and equanimity that we desire for our children and us.
In light of this clustering of horror and misfortune, OHEL's trauma team has revised its "pointers" in its ongoing effort and commitment to preserve our children's sense of safety.
- Normalize any fear and concern. Assure your children that being frightened after such events is just part of being human.
- While commiserating with your child that the recurrence of scary events in such close proximity is frightening, cast it in the context of the breadth of humanity and time with the accurate assurances that tragedy and misfortune remains the exception not the rule.
- Pre school aged children do not understand the concept of "rare" and should be told unequivocally that they are safe and that such horror will not occur to them. If applicable, assure them that these events took place far away from their home despite the immediacy of images and pictures.
- Since these recent events involved the death of children and grave injuries, it may be advisable to reiterate that death and infirmity are more typically and normally associated with aging and the elderly. This type of clarification is generally relevant only to children 6 and older who can understand this aspect of life.
- Limit your children's exposure to media coverage and viewing that is known to only exacerbate such horror and fear. This is particularly important with regard to the tornados for which live and frightening footage is readily available.
- Do not be surprised if your child seems unfazed by this event but manifests or expresses fears at a later date. There is not uncommonly a dormant period following exposure to such potentially destabilizing occurrences.
- Elementary school aged children are often preoccupied with the facts or details of such tragedy. This is age-typical and refraining from a tempered and accurate response leaves them prone to more scary rumors and distortions.
- It is not uncommon for children to fear inclement weather especially accompanied by thunder and lightening. Such children may be particularly horrified by the events in Oklahoma. If such fears recur, address them promptly before they become entrenched.
- Children who are generally beset by anxiety or fears are also more at risk for an adverse response. All of these children deemed more at risk should be carefully observed for changes in their mood, behavior and even play.

Doug Ghim Secures Low-Amateur Honours At 2018 Masters

The University of Texas senior played 36 holes in four-over-par at the 2018 US Masters to secure the Silver Cup
Ghim was the only amateur to make the cut at the 2018 Masters
Doug Ghim secured low-amateur honours in the 2018 US Masters by being the only non-professional to make the 36-hole cut at Augusta National.

Ghim, a senior at the University of Texas, secured his place in the tournament by finishing runner-up to Doc Redman in last year's US Amateur.
He will receive the Silver Cup – one of a number of trophies awarded for various achievements at The Masters – in the Butler Cabin on Sunday evening.
Ghim eagled the 13th and 18th on Thursday en route to a level-par 72, before a four-over-par 76 on Friday saw him through to the weekend with one shot to spare.

"I fought, I did everything I could to make sure I didn't get down on myself because that's what this golf course wants you to do," said Ghim.
"I felt like I did the best I could to stay focused, stay positive and just try to stick it through."
Ghim was five-over-par with three holes remaining, but found a timely birdie two on the par-3 16th before parring 17 and 18.
"That putt on 16 was huge," he said. "That thing was kind of motoring, but it hit dead centre. It was a big relief to be four-over instead of five heading into the last two holes."
Ghim completed 36 holes in five fewer shots than Chile's Joaquin Niemann, the world's number-one amateur, and Redman – the man who defeated him in the US Amateur.
The American has been one of collegiate golf's best players over the last few years. Last year, he was selected for the Arnold Palmer Cup and Walker Cup, and was named in Golfweek's All-American First Team. He was also crowned Big 12 (the University of Texas's conference) Player of the Year.
In the 2017 Walker Cup, in which America defeated GB&I 19-7, Ghim won four points from a possible four to solidify his reputation as one of the game's bright young stars.
The other three amateurs in the 2018 Masters field – Yuxin Lin, Matt Parziale and Amateur Champion Harry Ellis – all finished outside the top 80 in the 87-man field.

Triptych is Back!
Back by popular demand, my award-winning debut science fiction novel Triptych is returning to Wattpad! Yay! I will be posting a chapter every Tuesday afternoon, until the book is done. I will then be rereleasing the novel as a paperback in the new year, with a brand new cover and some never-before seen in-print extras.
Read the full novel on Wattpad
In the near future, humankind has mastered the arts of peace, tolerance, and acceptance. At least, that's what we claim. But then they arrive. Aliens—the last of a dead race. Suffering culture shock of the worst kind, they must take refuge on a world they cannot understand; one which cannot comprehend the scope of their loss.
Taciturn Gwen Pierson and super-geek Basil Grey are Specialists for the Institute—an organization set up to help alien integration into our societies. They take in Kalp, a widower who escaped his dying world with nothing but his own life and the unfinished toy he was making for a child that will never be born.
But on the aliens' world, family units come in threes, and when Kalp turns to them for comfort, they unintentionally, but happily, find themselves Kalp's lovers.
And then, aliens—and the Specialists who have been most accepting of them—start dying, picked off by assassins. The people of Earth, it seems, are not quite as tolerant as they proclaim.

Q: Toggle an inactive element's text with jQuery So I am attempting to create a menu element that shows and hides specific divs on a page, while also changing the text of the menu. After a little searching I have it worked out for the most part (although I know the code is a bit kludgey):
$(document).ready(function(){
            $('.section[id="option1"]').click(function(){
                    $(this).text($(this).text() == 'OPTION1' ? 'OPTION1 >>' : 'OPTION1');
                    $('.blurb').not('.blurb[id="option1"]').hide();
                    $('.blurb[id="option1"]').slideToggle();
                });
            $('.section[id="option2"]').click(function(){
                    $(this).text($(this).text() == 'OPTION2' ? 'OPTION2 >>' : 'OPTION2');
                    $('.blurb').not('.blurb[id="option2"]').hide();
                    $('.blurb[id="option2"]').slideToggle();
                });
            $('.section[id="option3"]').click(function(){
                    $(this).text($(this).text() == 'OPTION3' ? 'OPTION3 >>' : 'OPTION3');
                    $('.blurb').not('.blurb[id="option3"]').hide();
                    $('.blurb[id="option3"]').slideToggle();
                });
            $('.section[id="option4"]').click(function(){
                    $(this).text($(this).text() == 'OPTION4' ? 'OPTION4 >>' : 'OPTION4');
                    $('.blurb').not('.blurb[id="option4"]').hide();
                    $('.blurb[id="option4"]').slideToggle();
                });
            $('.section[id="option5"]').click(function(){
                    $(this).text($(this).text() == 'OPTION5' ? 'OPTION5 >>' : 'OPTION5');
                    $('.blurb').not('.blurb[id="option5"]').hide();
                    $('.blurb[id="option5"]').slideToggle();
                });
            $('.section[id="option6"]').click(function(){
                    $(this).text($(this).text() == 'OPTION6' ? 'OPTION6 >>' : 'OPTION6');
                    $('.blurb').not('.blurb[id="option6"]').hide();
                    $('.blurb[id="option6"]').slideToggle();
                });
        });

(full code in action can be viewed here)
This code works for the most part, except that if you already have a certain element (class="blurb") shown, when you click on the menu item (class="section") for another element, the menu indicates that the other element is still open. It seems like there must be a simple way to append or remove the desired text on click, but I can't seem to find a good way of doing it. Would it be worth rewriting the code using something like expander.js?
Here is the effected html

option1

option2

option3

option4

option5

option6

content for option1

content for option2

content for option3

content for option4

content for option5

content for option6

I'm still fairly new to jQuery, so any advice/pointers is greatly appreciated.

A: I solved your problem using a custom class and :after CSS styles: http://jsfiddle.net/mblase75/sDrZ2/3/
First, some CSS to append the arrows and convert to uppercase without modifying the text directly:
.uppercase {
    text-transform: uppercase;
}
.uppercase.arrowed:after {
    content: " >>";
}

Add in some changes to your HTML to utilize data- attributes, remove duplicate IDs and add an arrowed class which the JS toggles:

option1

option2

option3

option4

option5

option6

And finally, a rewrite to optimize your JavaScript a lot:
 $('.section').click(function () {
     $(this).addClass('uppercase').toggleClass('arrowed')
         .siblings('.section').removeClass('arrowed');
     $('#'+$(this).data('blurb')).slideToggle()
         .siblings('.blurb').hide();
 });

Note that the arrowed class is toggled, so it needs to be added initially so that it's toggled off on the first click.

Breaking Russian myths about Ukraine: infographics of 1914-1919
Ukraine in the world archives: Breaking Russian myths in infographics of 1914-1919.
Lenin was right when he said that «Soviet Russia can't exist without Ukraine». Breaking Russian myths and perversion of information: in 1918, Ukraine (UPR) proclaimed that it separates from Russia and becomes an independent state. To tell the world about a new country UKRAINE, Bucharest published a colorful poster infographics, which tells about Ukrainian history, language and economy in English and French. It is beautifully illustrated with the map of Ukrainians resettlement, national symbols and portraits of hetmans Bohdan Khmelnytsky and Ivan Mazepa.
Ukraine borders according to the ethnographic principle, Yuri Gasenko, 1919, SIBER & Co, BUCHAREST. High definition HERE.
The original of this poster from «Gallica» collection is located in the French National Library (Bibliothèque nationale de France). Author Yuri Gasenko (Ukrainian Юрій Гасенко; 1894-1933) is a Ukrainian statesman and public figure, writer and journalist, diplomat of emergency issues and plenipotentiary of Ukraine in Romania – the question of emergency and plenipotentiary of Ukraine in Romania, in 1919 designed and published the infographics of Ukraine, where foreign readers can find short and accessible history of Ukraine: from the age of Kiev Rus to the proclamation of independence in 1918.
Interesting abstracts from the review of the Ukrainian Republic: its history, its geography and its economic life in 1914.
Ukraine's territory was much bigger than now:
Area – 850.100 km2. This is more than the United Kingdom (obviously, we are talking only about the island of Great Britain), Romania, Greece, Bulgaria, Portugal, Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium and Albania together. It's also larger than France and Italy. The territory of modern Ukraine is 603.628 km2 (233,062 sq mi).
The population was 50.2 million people (now – 43 million, 45 million, taking into account temporarily occupied the Crimea and Sevastopol). But the population density is quite low – 45 people per km2. In comparison, France – 73 persons, Belgium – 255.
In the 19th century, Ukraine was the agricultural and industrial giant.
Even as a colony of the Russian Empire, Ukraine produced and grew:
67% of Russian grain (wheat – more than anyone else in the world),
64% of the Russian tobacco,
98% of anthracite,
68% of salt,
99% of carbonite,
88% of sugar (Ukraine produced more than all the world's sugar),
74% of steel,
71% of coal,
4.5% of the world's oil.
Ukraine production in comparison with the Russian Empire (in percentage correlation):
Production of iron
Production of sugar
Production of coal
Production of carbonite
Production of anthracite
Production of tobacco
Production of grain
Manufacture of salt
Exports from grain production
If in 1914 Ukraine would have been an independent state, Ukraine's budget revenues would amount to 181.244 million rubles, and Russia: 10,833,000 rubles (with a deficit of 170,331,000 rubles)…
The author even added data on physique and hair color of Ukrainians, Russian and Poles (apparently he decided that foreigners need to know about that). You can read about that in Ukrainian or German here.
Author also emphasizes the fact that neither Russia nor Poland does not want Ukraine to be independent, and is trying to prove in the European media that Ukrainian people and the Ukrainian language does not exist, that the Ukraine is barbaric country. According to the behavior of modern Russian media, Russia has not changed over the past 100 years.
Lenin was right when he said that «Soviet Russia can't exist without Ukraine». Let's read some extracts from the complete set of works (Volume 40): «Losing Ukraine is like losing your head!». «Now, with the conquest of Ukraine … our strength is growing. Now we have the opportunity to receive fuel from the Donets Basin, there are sources of bread and food… There are huge stocks and surplus of bread in Ukraine, it's difficult to take them all – there are still partisans there…» (Volume 38, pp. 300-305). Muscovy (RE, the USSR, the Russian Federation) has always lived at the expense of the Ukrainians, both in material terms and in the spiritual and personnel. Therefore, the war against Ukraine, that Moscow started, is a question of survival of the Russian Empire. Clinch of Russian-Ukrainian war will not leave a stone upon another in the current fake project called «Russian Federation» and in sham non-ethnic «Russians» community.
Thanks to Russian opponents who likes to shout «It's a fake. There was no such thing as infographics in those years!!!». It's a shame to be uneducated, lazy and slow-witted. INFOGRAPHICS (from the Latin word informatio – awareness, clarification, presentation, and ancient Greek γραφικός – written from γράφω – to write) – one of the forms of information design, graphical way of presenting information, data and knowledge, the goal of which is to present complex information quickly and accurately. Founder of infographics was Scottish engineer and political economist William Playfair applied his innovation in Commercial and Political Atlas in 1786 for the first time:
The Commercial and Political Atlas: Representing, by Means of Stained Copper-Plate Charts, the Progress of the Commerce, Revenues, Expenditure and Debts of England during the Whole of the Eighteenth Century, 1786.
Statistical Breviary; Shewing, on a Principle Entirely New, the Resources of Every State and Kingdom in Europe, 1802.
A Statistical Account of the United States of America by D. F. Donnant. London: J. Whiting. William Playfair, Trans, 1805. (Statistical report of the United States of America).
An Inquiry into the Permanent Causes of the Decline and Fall of Powerful and Wealthy Nations: Designed To Show How The Prosperity Of The British Empire May Be Prolonged, 1807 (the question about causes of the recession and loss of power and wealth of nations).
Infographics is not a modern invention, its convenience was appreciated a hundred years ago. One of the old visualizations is about Ukraine. Ukraine in the archives of the world, reference from 2006 is here.

When people join a company, is for a project; When it goes, it is going of heads. Amparo Moraleda, President IBM are many companies who have neglected their workers at all levels and this note, when you measure the organizational climate, where organizational behavior presents little productivity, belonging to the company, motivation that leaves a great deal to say, being several causes that generate it namely: policies of the company in relation to the satisfaction of a jobperformance, low remuneration and recognition of the work: absence of a participatory, charismatic, leadership really integrated with their work teams; bad definition of charges, functions to perform: ergonomics, occupational hygiene leaves much to say; not developed technology; no defined career plan: absence of indexes of yields, absence of a proactive organizational culture, which is itself the performance of workers, work t teams plans with well defined objectives..

As consumers and users we are continually bombarded by ads and commercial proposals in all possible media, prompting us to purchase certain products or services, allegedly with numerous benefits to our everyday life. However, we are very little awareness about the serious dangers that some of these products could entail for our health and well-being. In effect, are very rare occasions in which the media echo of the many cases that take place on consumers who suffer some type of damage, personal or patrimonial, after making use of a particular product or service. Although the public powers of the different countries and their consumer authorities carried out a great work of research and surveillance, with regular withdrawals of certain products which, due to their characteristics, could be hazardous to the health of consumers, many times these end up reaching the same, consummating the damage. It is precisely in the face this type of cases by what in the different legal systems will provide for specific standards of protection to consumers and users, establishing himself as a generalized principle the responsibility of the manufacturer or distributor (importer) for defects in products and services put into circulation.
The same would lead in case of cause personal or property damage to them, their obligation to repair such damage. Products and conflicting services there are certain products and services that are often star in this type of cases of damage to consumers and users. Among others are the following:-articles destined for children, normally be made with toxic materials or small parts that they could end up accidentally swallowing. -Food products. -Correlatively to the earlier establishments of hospitality, for example by outbreaks of salmonellosis. -Electronic products, for failures in its components and possible short circuits.
-Automobiles and their components, primarily due to its high degree of current sophistication and by the strong competition between the manufacturers, being very frequent that these should call review models of vehicles by faults in its design or manufacture. -Drugs and herbal products.

Dočasná národní přechodná rada (arabsky المجلس الوطني الإنتقالي, al-madžlis al-waṭaní al-'intiqálí) byl nejvyšší orgán povstalců v libyjské občanské válce, bojujících proti jednotkám Muammara Kaddáfího. V současnosti je též vládou Libye.

Dočasná národní přechodná rada byla vytvořena 27. února 2011 v centru povstání ve městě Benghází. Zpočátku ji tvořilo 33 členů, v současnosti se rozšířil jejich počet na 51, přičemž existují návrhy na další rozšíření. Předsedou je bývalý ministr spravedlnosti Mustafa Abdul Džalíl, premiérem Abdar Rahím Kíb, mluvčím advokát Abdul Háfiz Ghoga a vrchním velitelem ozbrojených sil byl generál Abdul Fatah Júnis, který byl za nejasných okolností 29. července 2011 zavražděn, a posléze ho nahradil generál Haftar.

V srpnu 2011 slíbil předseda Dočasné národní přechodné rady Mustafa Džalíl vypsání svobodných voleb během osmi měsíců. V těchto volbách pak měl být zvolen sněm 200 reprezentantů, který měl sestavit ústavu Libye a do 30 dnů od první schůze stanovit datum voleb, vzdálený ne více než šest měsíců od jejího konání.

Volby proběhly 7. července 2012, čímž se role Národní přechodové rady zakončila a moc byla 8. srpna předána Národnímu kongresu.. Kvůli sporům o počtu delegátů z jednotlivých částí Libye v kongresu však zároveň Národní přechodová rada těsně před volbami rozhodla, že samotnou ústavu vytvoří nezávislý, přímo volený orgán s rovným zastoupením účastníků ze tří regionů Libye, tj. Kyrenaiky, Fezzánu a Tripolska. Půjde o první platnou ústavu od roku 1969.

Složení Dočasné národní přechodné rady
V současnosti má Dočasná národní přechodná rada dvě hlavní části.

Legislativní částí je samotná Národní přechodová rada, ta se skládá ze 51 reprezentantů libyjských měst a pověřenců, kteří zastupují některé klíčové skupiny či rezorty (například Dr. Salwa Fawzi El-Deghali zastupuje ženy a věnuje se i právní problematice).

Druhou částí je Výkonná rada. Je složena z 15 členů a uvádí v praxi rozhodnutí Přechodné rady. Tvoří ji odborníci spravující přidělené rezorty jako je zdravotnictví, ekonomika či doprava.

Uznání Dočasné národní přechodné rady

Dne 10. března 2011 uznala Francie jako první stát světa tuto Radu za legitimního představitele Libye. Dne 23. března 2011 oznámili představitelé Dočasné národní přechodné rady vytvoření Libyjské republiky s Džalílem jako prezidentem a Mahmúdem Džibrílem jako předsedou vlády. Zároveň převzali státní symboly královské Libye z let 1951-1969. Povstalci také založili organizace jako centrální banka, úřad pro ropný průmysl nebo televizní stanice. Jejich cílem je po svržení Kaddáfího uspořádat referendum o nové ústavě a pak svobodné volby.

Po Francii uznaly povstaleckou vládu také Katar (28. března), Maledivy (3. dubna), Itálie (4. dubna) a další státy. Některé země sice Dočasné národní přechodné radě poskytly faktickou podporu, ale oficiální diplomatické styky s ní navázaly později: USA a Japonsko 15. července, Spojené království 27. července či Egypt a Tunisko 22. srpna. Po dobytí hlavního města Tripolisu uznala přechodovou radu i Česká republika. Podporu této organizaci vyjádřil také libyjský exilový panovník Muhammad as-Senussi.

Dočasná národní přechodová rada nakonec 16. září 2011 získala uznání Valného shromáždění OSN jakožto legitimní zástupce Libye poměrem 114 hlasů ku 17. 15 států se zdrželo hlasování.

Výhrady k libyjské opozici
Libyjská opozice měla od počátku sympatie světové veřejnosti, i když v současnosti bývá terčem kritiky za špatné vedení války a spoléhání na zahraniční pomoc. Podle některých osobností (například amerického admirála Jamese Stavridise) se vyskytují mezi opozicí i radikální islamisté.

Kohli Reveals The Story Behind His Nickname "Cheeku" & How Dhoni Made It Popular
The cricketers don't have the option of working from home so most of the cricketers are getting pretty active on social media networks nowadays as majority of the nations of the world are under lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Kevin Pietersen, the former England cricket player, is carrying out Instagram live sessions with various cricketers such as Dale Steyn, Ahmed Shehzad, Rohit Sharma ,etc. Recently, Kevin went live with the Indian skipper Virat Kohli and they talked on lot of topics including IPL 2020, Virat's stint as a captain and also how Virat's nickname Cheeku got famous.
Virat disclosed that it all happened because former skipper MS Dhoni started addressing him with this name on the field and it was heard by everyone because of the stump's mic. He also talked about the time when his coach in the Ranji Trophy started calling him Cheeku.
Virat got this nickname in 2007 when he thought that he is losing hair so he got his hair cut short because of which his ears and cheeks started looking big. That was the time when his coach started calling him Cheeku which was the name of a rabbit in a comic book.
Virat is a fitness freak and he is one of the most athletic cricketers of the world. He loves to bat with those who are good in running between the wickets and also understand his calls. Virat called MS Dhoni as his favourite batting partner as he is one of the fastest runners between the wickets and they both have a good understanding. Another batsman with whom Virat loves to bat is AB de Villiers, his Royal Challenger Bangalore's teammate. Virat says that with AB, they both don't even need to talk, the partnership just goes on and it's really wonderful.
Virat had a pretty bad tour in New Zealand and he would have loved to gain his form in IPL before the T20 World Cup 2020 but IPL 2020 has been postponed till April 15 and there are pretty good chances of it getting cancelled or delayed further. However, there has been no official statement by BCCI on this matter.

VICO, Giovanni Battista.. Principj di una scienza nuova intorno alla natura della nazioni.
Naples, Felice Mosca., 1725
Duodecimo (165 x 105 mm.), 270 pages, 6 unnumbered leaves. Our copy has manuscript corrections on pages: 35, 46, 59, 60, 61, 108, 142, 173, 249, 267; and the three-line paper slip pasted on verso of the last page of text. Contemporary interim paper boards with manuscript title on spine. Browning and foxing due to the poor quality of the paper but a very fine copy completely untrimmed.The very rare first edition of this ground-breaking historiographical work, untouched in its original state.'The vehicle by which the concept of historical development at last entered the thought of Western Europe' (Toulmin, The Discovery of Time, 125)'Many 20th-century notions of anthropology, comparative law, literature, religion and linguistic philosophy can be found in the pages of this book' (PMM)The son of a Neapolitan bookseller, Gimbattista Vico (1668-1774) earned a degree in utroque iure at Naples. After working as a private tutor, he was appointed to a professorship of rhetoric in the same university and, in 1734, he became Historiographer Royal to Charles III, King of Naples.The first edition of the Scienza Nuova was written in 1723-25 and offered, with a dedication, to Cardinal Lorenzo Corsini, later Pope Clement XII. Although Corsini's acceptance implied financial assistance to the publication of Vico's work, he eventually withdrew his support. Unable to find a more generous patron, Vico had to excise three-quarters of the original 1,000 pages and have the work printed at his expense in a minute typeface, in 12mo, on low-quality paper (Croce, Bibliografia, 35-37). The present copy, in interim boards, untrimmed and awaiting binding, has come down to us as it was then, fresh from the printer's press. 'This first edition is very scarce; in 1729, four years after its publication, its rarity was renowned'; copies were sold, even then, at a high price (Parenti, Notizia, 11).The work offered a new philosophical system, opposed to Descartes – a scienza embracing the general knowledge of human civilisation, based on the interaction of philology, history and law. To Vico, philology and etymology were useful epistemological instruments for the understanding of the ancient past. Poetry in particular, he explained, conveyed history through myths enshrouded in allegory. He also saw history as a cyclical pattern, composed of corsi and ricorsi, by which civilisations moved from barbarism to a refined humanity, only to elapse back into the former. These ideas, so opposed to 18th-century classicism and positivism, were instead celebrated in 19th-century philosophy, linguistics and nationalism.Reprinted and enlarged in 1730 and 1744, the 1725 edition remains nevertheless the one in which Vico's philosophy 'was expressed with less depth and self-confidence […] yet with greater ease and spontaneity, so that the common reader will find it less obscure' (Fasso, 'Quattro auttori', 79).PMM 184; Croce, Bib. Vichiana, 34-41; Brunet V, 1175. WorldCat locates three copies in the US and one in the UK.Croce, Bibliografia Vichiana (Naples, 1947); M. Parenti, Notizia bibliografica sulle edizioni originali della 'Scienza Nuova' (Florence, c.1950); G. Fasso, I 'quattro auttori' del Vico (Milano, 1949).

John Stewart is the primary Green Lantern of Sector 2814 and a founding member of the Justice League.
3 Paraphernalia
3.2 Weapons
4 Oath
John Stewart left home to enlist in the United States Marine Corps at a fairly young age. Relatively little is known of John's military service, save that he met and befriended Rex Mason during that time. After leaving the service, John Stewart was selected by the Guardians of the Universe to join the Green Lantern Corps. Early in his Corps career, John would train under the veteran Green Lantern Katma Tui.
As Sector 2814 was already under the protection of Green Lantern Abin Sur, John was eventually reassigned to another space sector. It was only several years later — following Abin Sur's demise at the hands of Sinestro — that John would return to his home sector. Abin Sur's designated successor, Kyle Rayner, would himself require training before being assigned a sector of his own. John Stewart was therefore sent to stand guard over Sector 2814, while Kyle was sent to Katma Tui for training.
Not long after John's homecoming, he would answer the fateful summons to join six other heroes in opposing the Imperium invasion. In the aftermath of that crisis, John readily agreed to Superman's suggestion that the seven heroes band together as the Justice League.
John was the focal point of one of the League's earliest missions. A detachment of Manhunters were sent to Earth to take John into custody, to answer charges of inadvertently destroying an inhabited world. The League followed, ready to stand up for their comrade despite John's insistence that he be held accountable for his actions. The League was able to prove that John was innocent, and that the entire situation had been engineered by the Manhunters as part of a plot to exact revenge upon their former masters — the Guardians.
John continued to serve with distinction in the Justice League, forming a strong bond with his comrades. In particular, John grew closer to Hawkgirl; although the two clashed at first, their shared military/police backgrounds provided common ground, and in time the two became romantically involved.
This romantic attachment would be shattered by the Thanagarian Invasion. Hawkgirl's apparent treachery, and apparent engagement to Thanagarian Commander Hro Talak, all but broke John's heart. Despite this, John remained with the Justice League through its expansion — although he at one point appealed, unsuccessfully, to the Guardians for reassignment.
However, John attempted to put himself back together and started seeing Justice League member Vixen. While he attempted to make it seem as if he was over Shayera, other members on the Justice League noticed that this was not the case. To make things even more complicated for John, Shayera came out of hiding to stop Solomon Grundy after he had risen from the grave a second-time. When Solomon Grundy had been put to rest by Shayera, John angrily informed reporters that Shayera would be allowed back in the League.
Things did not get any easier with Shayera back in Justice League. When the time traveler Chronos came back in time to steal Batman's utility belt, John, Wonder Woman and Batman chased him back to the Old West where they assisted him and a group of cowboys against Tobias Manning. Chronos managed to get away again, but this time back to his own time where he warped it, resulting in the devastation of the Justice League of that time. The trio chased him again where they met up with the last members of the Justice League: Batman, Static and Warhawk.
While there, John discovered his unsettling future: he would become the father of Warhawk, and the mother would be none other than Shayera Hol. After stopping Chronos and restoring the timeline back to normal, with Wonder Woman vanishing during the mission due to the tampering, Batman and John returned to their time, the only ones bearing the knowledge of what had happened.
With this knowledge, John became awkward around both Vixen and Shayera. It would not be until over a year later that he would inform Shayera of his discovery after witnessing himself as the reincarnation of Vashari in Egypt. However, John refused to be destiny's puppet and decided to stay with Vixen until he chose otherwise.

This is the first Polish tech startup to receive funding from Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
ExPLoRNA Therapeutics, a Polish biotech company developing mRNA vaccines and therapeutics, has received funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (that also backed Bactolife, Cropin and more). The total funding received is more than $800K and will be used for a 14-month project.
The Polish biotech company is the first to receive funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and seeks to make mRNA technology more accessible in low-income countries to help fight disease.
How does it increase protein production?
ExPLoRNA specialises in novel cap analogues, the starting part of mRNA that is crucial for enabling the successful production of the encoded protein. ExPLoRNA's technology increases protein production beyond the scale observable so far with other standard cap analogs.
The project aims to better understand the benefits of ExPLoRNA's cap analogs, especially in reducing the mRNA dose needed for therapeutic effects in vaccination and monoclonal antibody production settings. The planned experiments include the use of state-of-the-art, clinically validated lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulations from Acuitas Therapeutics. Acuitas is known for its successful role in providing the LNP technology for one of the only two regulatory-approved mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines. ExPLoRNA Therapeutics is the first Polish biotech company to receive funding from Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
"We are grateful for the foundation's support to help us achieve our vision. With the help of this grant, we intend to speed up the development of future mRNA vaccines and therapies." – comments Jacek Jemielity, CEO of ExPLoRNA Therapeutics, and professor at the University of Warsaw.
With passion, ExPLoRNA Therapeutics is harnessing over 20 years of cap analog research and developing ground-breaking innovations of mRNA as a therapeutic platform applies those solutions in unique therapeutic programs, and delivers technology, therapeutic platform, and therapies to pharmaceutical Partners.

Raw clams, oysters, and mussels pose the highest risk because they filter bacteria and viruses from the water and concentrate them in their flesh. Cooking generally eliminates these contaminants.
Two indicators of potential contamination from environmental pollutants are fat content and location. Fatty fish such as salmon and swordfish tend to accumulate contaminants. Fish caught from freshwater sources (such as carp and lake whitefish) or near shore (bluefish, striped bass) are more likely to be contaminated than those caught farther offshore (yellow fin tuna, haddock), where dilution minimizes toxic chemical risk.

CMAS | Care for Newcomer Children launches a parenting webpage
CMAS | Care for Newcomer Children * is a federally funded program that provides supports, resources, and helps organizations, to provide culturally appropriate child care for newcomer families participating in the Language Instruction for Newcomers in Canada program.
They have just launched a section on Parenting in their website. The Parenting pages provide useful information and resources, including multilingual resources in:
Parenting ~ information to help newcomer families adjust to parenting in Canada, including multilingual resources covering general parenting practices
Child development ~ information, resources and ideas to encourage the cognitive, social, emotional, and language development of children
Health and safety ~ information on nutrition, immunizations, mental health, physical activity guidelines, and product recall information
School readiness ~ information on how to support a smooth transition to the school system.
*CMAS (formerly known as Childminding Advisory and Support Services) is funded through Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada and was founded in 2000. More recently, it supports and promotes the care for newcomer children model. "Childminding" is no longer used.
Scars as beauty
"I ask you right here please to agree with me that a scar is never ugly. That is what scar makers want us to think. But you and I, we must make an agreement to defy them. We must see scars as beauty. Because take it from me, a scar does not form on the dying. A scar means, I survived".
Little Bee, Chris Cleave
Four questions for … social worker, facilitator and diversity consultant Ilaneet Goren
I asked social worker, facilitator and diversity consultant Ilaneet Goren:
What's the effect of racism, discrimination, and stereotyping on newcomer children (birth to age eight)?
I am part of a team of equity educators who facilitate diversity programs for children and youth in school boards across Ontario. While every school and community is unique in terms of their experience with immigration, when it comes to inclusion and well-being, the barriers newcomer children face are similar across the board. Even in communities where resources and supports are readily available, there is no immunity to implicit bias, prejudice, and anti-immigrant sentiments in the current political climate that emboldens hateful nationalist ideologies. Children learn and absorb messages from the adult world around them and, when anti-immigrant attitudes become the norm, it teaches all children that taunting someone for having an accent or for wearing a hijab is 'okay'.
In my experience as a social worker – and speaking as a two-time immigrant who first emigrated at the age of 10 – newcomer children want to belong, more than anything else. They want to feel a part of their school community. They want to be and feel Canadian. While they are aware of their differences in terms of ethnicity, language, culture, or faith, they are more interested in the commonalities that help them connect to their classmates and identify them as friends. In fact, the speed with which newcomer children adapt to their new environment and culture never ceases to amaze us: it is a testament to their amazing resiliency and potential which we, as educators, must nurture.
Inside the school as outside of it, prejudice, bias and discrimination are most often expressed in implicit and unspoken ways. Negative and belittling attitudes, deficit-based thinking, or a lack of understanding that equity doesn't mean equality and that some newcomer children may need specific supports in order to integrate into school are commonplace in all environments. Biased thinking occurs when newcomer children are automatically placed in a lower grade, or when students facing language barriers are not afforded the extra time they need to complete an assignment because 'everyone needs to be treated equally.'
When we talk to students about their school climate the conversation often reveals the lack of safety experienced by students who are on the receiving end of bullying and stereotyping because of their identity. The bystander effect is also revealed: their peers are unwilling to intervene when they witness bullying. These conversations can be challenging for newcomer students who may not have the confidence or the language to talk about their experiences of exclusion, or may not know about – or trust – the supports available to them.
When students don't feel safe, they can't learn. A lack of safety affects their stress levels and well-being. While student mental health is now part of the conversation in many schools, there is still much work to be done to address the link between bullying, racism, and student mental health and well-being.
Rather than expecting that students affected by racism and discrimination reach out for support, educators and administrators need to be proactive and engage the students directly, while addressing and interrupting bullying every single time they witness it.
There's much discussion on integration of immigrants. What kinds of services or supports do newcomer children need to successfully integrate in Canada?
Newcomer parents need support in navigating the education system and in advocating for their rights and the rights of their children in that system. Currently, this support is spotty and fragmented: some areas have it or some form of it, though many don't. Even in areas where schools have settlement workers, these workers may be over-stretched, trying to meet growing needs with shrinking resources. When it comes to institutionalized racism, settlement workers are not equipped with the tools, nor are they encouraged or funded, to engage in advocacy for systemic change.
Before talking about services though, it's important to remember that safety, followed by love and belonging, is among the first three most basic human needs, according to Maslow's famous hierarchy of needs. From an equity perspective, emphasizing and actively supporting a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment for children where they live, learn and play is fundamental to their healthy development. For newcomer children, safety and belonging are especially important factors that shape their experience with immigration. This is the philosophy that we want to see permeate every facet of our society, not just within settlement services.
I'd like to see more discussion about safeguarding services against operating like a machine devoid of a human heart. Sometimes services are well-intentioned and look good on the books but fall short when it comes to authentic human connection and genuine expressions of care, empathy and compassion. I say this as both a service provider and as a youth who once received these services. Restricting the length of time people can stay connected to their case workers, for example, or requiring certain documents in order to be connected to services, are just two examples of administrative practices that create barriers and reproduce oppression.
To continue to meet the challenges brought about by global migration, Canada needs to re-think its approach to newcomer support in many areas and re-design our system and the ways in which resources are allocated. Services need to be more integrated, holistic, comprehensive and consistent, taking into account the unique needs of each geographical immigrant area. The examples are too many to list here, but an illustration is evident in the ways in which refugee families from Syria have been treated, with different types of sponsorship revealing major gaps in how services are coordinated and funds are allocated.
If you could influence the federal minister of citizenship, refugees, and immigration to do one thing for newcomer children, what would it be?
Support newcomer families.
Newcomer children do well when their families do well and their basic needs are met. The effects of social and economic inequality on newcomers are imprinted on their children. Too often, newcomer children carry the burden and stress of their parents because of the barriers they face, be it unemployment, financial struggle, inadequate housing, racism, or a combination of all of these factors. When supporting newcomer children we have to include the whole family unit in our analysis and understand the interconnected nature of forms of inequality and the ways in which they influence one another.
What is one of your favourite children's books that you would recommend for newcomer children? Why?
I think children's books offer a lot of insight and wisdom for adults, as well as children! One that I particularly like as a diversity educator is "Why Are All The Taxi Drivers…?" by Canadian educator Christopher D'Souza, with illustrations by Nadia Petkovic.
The little girl in the book, Dakota, is curious and, like many children, she asks her Mom about the things she is noticing – unknowingly uncovering hidden bias and stereotypes embedded in the world around us through the eyes of a child. I like this book because it's a good entry point to a conversation with a child about the inequality they might be witnessing in the world around them. It validates the stuff many racialized immigrant children already know and feel but may not have the words to describe, and gives ideas about ways to create change.

Jamal Khashoggi murdered in Saudi Embassy
Tuesday 30 Oct 2018 Sebastian Shaddick
THE SAUDI ARABIAN journalist, Jamal Khashoggi, was killed in the Saudi Embassy in Istanbul on Tuesday 8 October. The writer had been a key figure in the Arab world's dissident culture, and has supported progressive social causes such as the Saudi women's liberation movement, as well as the Arab Spring. Khashoggi's noto
riety as a journalist was recently elevated after speaking against the policies of Mohammad bin Salman (MBS), the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. Reports say that Khashoggi had entered the consulate for the purpose of obtaining documents for the marriage of fiancee, Hatice Cengiz ,who waited outside the building while he entered. He was then reported missing after not returning. For several days, nothing was heard from either Khashoggi or the consulate regarding his status. Rumours were sparked over what happened? Until, on 15 October, a joint Turkish-Saudi inspection of the embassy was deducted. Information was released that the journalist had been, according to a Saudi official, strangled to death during a confrontation with a 15-man team of Saudi operatives. Allegations emerged, however, that the men actually interrogated, tortured and finally dismembered his body; cutting off his fingers, limbs, and finally decapitating him. Turkey has said that the sounds of this horrific attack were captured on Khashoggi's Apple Watch. Overall, 18 operatives were sent to intercept Khashoggi in the consulate and, according to most, either dispense of him or extract him back to his country of origin, although their exact intention has not been identified. It is widely believed by critics of MBS and the Saudi regime that their modus operandi was to silence the journalist for his work. Although the exact series of events are still ambiguous, the "Homelandstyle'"plot has undoubtedly heightened the geo-political tensions concerning Saudi Arabia, Turkey, US and the rest of the Arab world. State leaders, including Theresa May, have already spoken publicly. The Prime Minister stated that, "The Home Secretary is taking action against all suspects to prevent them entering the UK, and if these individuals currently have visas, those will be revoked today". Erdogan, being purely cautionary on the matter, has been scrutinized over possible breaches of national security after an alleged wire-tapping of the Saudi Embassy and stated: "From the person who gave the order, to the person who carried it out; they must all be brought to account." Meanwhile, the US President, sat with his arms crossed, observing that it was the "worst cover up ever". The United States has long been an ally of the Saudi regime and President Trump has pointed his finger at the operation, condemning it as a "total fiasco". It seems that many leaders are simply "stocking up and bunkering down" politically, waiting for events to blow over. But the r e a l concern lies in the relations between Turkey and Saudi Arabia. The House of Saud requested that Khashoggi's sons meet with them over the incident, but some critics have said this seemingly ended up as a cynical photo opportunity. This event, like the Novichok incident back in March this year, has deeply alarmed supporters of the international rules-based order, who decry the audacious use of force by rogue states. MBS has attempted to craft an image as a great reformer. He has liberalised some restrictions on women in Saudi Arabia, allowing them to drive. He has also spearheaded a transformation of the economy away from oil dependency and curbed the influence of the religious police. Yet, his actions on the international stage have been characterised by ruthless aggression. How will the benevolent powers that be, justify and navigate this attack? In the headmaster's office of the international order, which of the pupils will own up? The answer is yet to follow. Although, it can be said that The Crown Prince's premiership as a "great reformer" now hangs in the balance, as these events cast a shadow over his image both domestically and internationally.
