This year is the 150th anniversary of the New York State Fish Hatchery in Caledonia, a milestone for this remarkable property, which is the oldest fish hatchery in the Western hemisphere. Established in 1864 by Rochesterian Seth Green, the hatchery is located on Oatka Creek, renowned for its exceptional qualities and conditions that make it ideal for the propagation of trout. Known as the "father of fish culture," Green gained a world-wide reputation as a pioneer in both aquaculture and conservation.
Now operated by the New York State Department of Conservation, the hatchery features a picturesque campus that retains its historic buildings, as well as modern facilities. It is open to the public year 'round and maintains a schedule of activities focused on the breeding of brown and rainbow trout. Soon to be listed in the State and National Registers of Historic Places, the hatchery is a unique property whose historical, cultural, and scientific importance extends far beyond our region.

The Germans planned a spectacular match - the prisoners planned a spectacular escape.
Something of a cult classic, Escape to Victory is arguably the most famous film to revolve around The Beautiful Game. Based on 1962 Hungarian film called Két félidő a pokolban by director Zoltán Fábri the film, which is set during WWII, tells the story of a football match played in Paris by a team of Prisoners of War against a German side, seen as a propaganda event. The team is led by John Colby (Michael Caine) who is determined to win the game despite the distraction of other POWs who want to use the cover of the game to escape. Sylvester Stallone plays Hatch, an American POW who is at the vanguard of the escape attempt and actually manages to get out of the camp prior to the game to meet up with resistance leaders in Paris. After planning the big breakout, Hatch must get recaptured and returned to the POW camp in order to communicate the plans to the others. When the big day arrives, Hatch is put into goal and Colby persuades the team to see the match through to the final whistle before they make their escape.
The film notoriously features a host of real life professional footballers who were involved in the game and doubled for the actors or played on the German team, including the Brazilian superstar Pelé, Bobby Moore, Osvaldo Ardiles and a whole host of players from the English team Ipswich Town, who were one of the most successful British sides at the time of the film's release. English goalkeeping legend Gordon Banks, who played during the 1966 world cup that England won, worked behind the scenes and coached Stallone to ensure his scenes in goal were realistic enough for the film's audience.
This UK quad takes the central figures from the US one sheet (where the film was titled simply Victory) that were painted by the artist David Jarvis and adds a montage that was illustrated by the British designer Vic Fair, who also designed the poster. Jarvis is perhaps best known for his illustration on the US one sheet for Walter Hill's The Warriors. Having completed a degree in illustration at the Los Angeles Art Center College of Design, Jarvis went on to work as a freelance illustrator producing over thirty designs for film posters, as well as record sleeves, magazine covers and more. He also worked as an artist for Disney studios on the films Mulan and Tarzan. The other posters I've collected by him can be seen here.
One of the most important designer/artists ever to work on British film marketing, Vic Fair is responsible for several iconic posters, including The Man Who Fell To Earth, posters for Hammer horrors like Vampire Circus, and the withdrawn advance one sheet for A View to a Kill. I interviewed the artist for this site and that article can be viewed by clicking here.

Every Nightmare Has A Beginning...This One Never Ends
Brian De Palma's 1980 erotic crime thriller Dressed to Kill is frequently held up as a high-watermark in the career of the virtuoso director, and the film saw him perfecting the technical and stylistic flourishes he had been honing in the years before with films such as Sisters (1973) and Obsession (1976). Blending obvious homages to Hitchcock (Vertigo and Psycho for starters) with several hallmarks of the Italian Giallo genre, the film features multiple plot twists and outlandish sequences, including the murder of one of the main characters after 35 minutes.
The plot ostensibly focuses on the murder of a sexually frustrated housewife, and the subsequent investigation by her son and the high-class call girl who was the only witness to the crime. It features memorable turns from Angie Dickinson, Nancy Allen (De Palma's wife at the time) and Michael Caine in one of his more atypical performances. The reveal of the identity of the killer is one of the film's most infamous moments and certainly lingers long in the memory after the credits roll.
This British quad is as subdued as the US one sheet, sharing the same stylised image of the killer peeking through the bathroom door (if memory serves me correctly this particular image was created specifically for the poster). The American one sheet features the moniker that De Palma had been given at the time; 'The Master of the Macabre'.
The trailer is on YouTube.

Christopher Nolan's incredible Batman trilogy launched in 2005 with Batman Begins and ended with The Dark Knight Rises in 2012. The final instalment was following on from arguably the greatest film based on a comic book character yet to be released, The Dark Knight, which featured Heath Ledger's unforgettable performance as the villainous Joker. The actor's tragic demise meant the character would not be returning for what Nolan decided, after a deliberation of a few months following the second film's release, would be the final entry in his series of films.
Set a few years after the events in The Dark Knight, the film opens with a jaw-dropping mid-air sequence onboard a plane during which we're introduced to the film's big bad, comic book favourite character Bane (played by Tom Hardy), who sets in motion a plan that will threaten Gotham and the reclusive, physically ailing Batman. At first it seems as though Bane is acting alone but soon a sinister plot is revealed that sees Gotham literally isolated from the rest of the world with Batman unable to help. The film also features Anne Hathaway's Catwoman, initially a selfish thief but later an ally of the Dark Knight, keen to help prevent a terrible explosive disaster.
Following on from the second film was always going to be a tricky prospect and some filmgoers were not as impressed with the final film in the trilogy. But many, including me, felt it was pretty much the perfect end to Nolan's take on DC Comics' most beloved character. The only thing which I did find somewhat lacklustre was the marketing campaign, especially in comparison to the host of posters printed for The Dark Knight. A fairly intriguing teaser gave way to a number of rather less interesting one sheets and the British quads weren't great.
Not all of the posters were disappointing, however, and this was one of three international advance character one sheets that were designed by Ignition Creative and printed for use in international English-speaking territories. This particular set came to me from Singapore and features a URL with 'Asia' in it but I have also seen UK versions of the same posters.
Ignition are a creative agency based in Los Angeles and London and they offer print, audio/visual (including trailers) and interactive (websites) for film, TV and games. Their official site features hundreds of examples of their work and you only have to look at the gallery of their work on IMPAwards to see how prolific they are. The firm worked on the majority of the posters for The Dark Knight Rises and often generates lots of posters for each campaign it works on.

Most businesses run in the traditional way where the business plan acts as the framework to guide business direction. Depending on the business plan you have, it usually covers financials, marketing, product/service and competitor research, operating systems, human resources, SWOT analysis, and sustainability practices.
Have you ever thought of bringing a holistic approach and practice into business, to work alongside the traditional model? In the context of health care, working holistically means to take the whole person into account such as mental, physical, spiritual and emotional factors as well as lifestyle – all of which can influence a person's wellbeing and state of health. A business can be viewed in a similar way. The Meriam- Webster Dictionary (2018) states holistic as being concerned with wholes or complete systems rather than being dissected into parts.
The need to incorporate such an approach into mainstream business is because you can tick all the boxes found within the traditional business plan and still not be moving forward the way you want. Creating a holistic model of business practice can allow you to view your business, staff and clients differently to how you are currently doing. Four examples are given below.
1. Being authentic and going deeper into relationship building with your staff and clients.
2. Understanding the health status of your business. Is your business about to have a stroke and become incapacitated because everyone is so stressed, for example, or is it having episodes of arrhythmia where it is moving so slowly it is about to just….stop working?
3. Delving deeper into what service and contribution mean to you and your staff. Are they aligned? How can YOU, as the owner/director be a better boss/manager/leader for your staff and industry?
4. Welcoming and embracing active creativity into the workplace. By doing this, the business will come alive as creativity generates flow, focus, excitement and innovation.
Using the above four points systematically (rather than in isolation) will help to generate positive results and prosperity for your business in ways not previously considered.

Interview: Dr Nimesh Desai
'Stigma in seeking help remains'
T.K. RAJALAKSHMI
Print edition : September 16, 2016 T+ T-

Interview with Dr Nimesh Desai, Director, Institute of Human Behaviour and Allied Sciences.
A STRONG advocate of the public health system, Dr Nimesh Desai, a psychiatrist by training, believes poverty, homelessness and violence, and refugees and disaster-affected people must be given as much attention as the health issues of the affluent classes in order to evolve a truly public health model for the treatment of mental illness. Institute of Human Behaviour and Allied Sciences (IHBAS) is a refuge of sorts for low-income groups. Its 250-bedded facility in New Delhi is almost always full and no one is turned away.
Dr Desai spoke to Frontline on the Mental Health Care Bill. Excerpts:
The overall state of health services in the country is dismal. We do not have a right to general health, but we have a new Mental Health Care Bill.
The Bill was long overdue. Twenty years of implementation of the 1987 Mental Health Act had brought some problems out in the open. The Bill is necessary because India signed and ratified the CRPD [United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities], which takes a fundamentally different approach. It is also creditable that the enactment is happening at a rapid pace, which shows decreasing stigma and increasing acceptance about mental health issues among parliamentarians and policymakers. But there are very few debates.
To our dismay, with all due respect to the Upper House, we did hear comments like "paagal" and "paagalkhana". It is unfortunate, but it reflects a certain reality. The negative side is that old-style values and stigma still prevail and there is a tendency to brush away anything to do with mental illness. That social reality will also affect the adequacy of the level of implementation of this progressive legislation. Guaranteeing the right to mental health care is most progressive, but we will have to wait and see how it translates into action. You are right that we don't have a right to health care but [are in the process of having] a right to mental health care. What is a little more important is the set of rules. Once the legislation is enacted, then the framing of rules will be crucial.
There are concerns about the extent to which a mentally ill person will be able to exercise autonomy when it comes to issues like advance directive.
The world is getting influenced by the idea of the individual being supreme. That being the basic premise of the CRPD and the new Bill, it may seem to contradict the collectivism that is prevalent in South Asia and East Asia. The debate of individualism and collectivism is currently settled in law in favour of the individual. But social practices and mindsets are still grounded in collectivism. How this gap will be bridged needs to be seen.
The law is appropriate in being enacted the way it is. The fact is that society, law and science believed in mental illness and the soundness of the mind in black-or-white terms. That old value system across fields of knowledge has changed. The rights-based approach questions this binary approach. It is difficult for society to understand and for all health care professionals to change their mindset. That some people may have a steadily improving capacity is something we should accept. I empathise with how many of our colleagues in medicine and psychiatry have difficulty grasping these concepts. I have myself journeyed over the last 10 years and have learnt from rights activists.
The issue that it is not dichotomous is also the way science has advanced.
Yet, we do take pride in saying that 90 per cent of mental illnesses are treatable and people can recover. The difficulty that law, society and mental health professionals have is that we are still working with the model of "present-absent", but the incapacity may not be 100 per cent.
If we agree to the shades of grey, the principles of autonomy will require that even during the period of treatment and recovery we cannot presume incapacity of the person undergoing treatment. There is supported decision-making and assisted decision-making. I am nearly convinced that even at the peak of illness both kinds of decision-making have to be tried. In both medicine and psychiatry, the approach used to be paternalistic, not collaborative. For the last 20-30 years, both at the AIIMS and the IHBAS, I have tried the collaborative approach. Individuals and families in South Asia do not like the collaborative approach. They say and insist: "Doctor, how do we know? You are the doctor, you should know best." Advance directive is a progressive idea. On the face of it, it may not look like a practical idea. But we need to try it out. While there should be a penalty for defaulters, good practices should not be penalised under the pretext of the law.
There is a feeling among psychiatrists that the collaborative exercise was not there in the run-up to the Bill.
The Rajya Sabha Parliamentary Committee had many sittings. While the multi-stakeholder reality of the 21st century is acceptable, one of the largest and most sensitive groups that has worked for mental illness is psychiatrists. Do we want to make the mistake of making them feel that their opinion is not important? I am no authority to decide how it happened, but as an observer involved in the process I feel saddened by it.
The Bill and its proponents advocate a collaborative approach; one wonders whether the same has been followed in the run-up to the Bill. What amuses me is that most stakeholder groups are unhappy with the current draft. How can one have a Bill with which most people are unhappy? Now that it is done, let us see what can be done in the rules. ECT [electroconvulsive therapy] is life-saving and can be retained, but direct ECT being restricted in children should not cause so much heartburning. Special permission can be sought from the court. We use ECT sparingly, never direct ECT, and it is very rarely used in children.
How do you view the state of mental health services and the overall scenario?
It is difficult to generalise as geographically we are diverse. Parts of the south are strong in mental health services and human resources and research, whereas in northern and eastern India these services are weak in the public sector, which is what the masses utilise. It is also not bad in parts of western India. But the private sector doesn't cater to the masses. And the public health system in mental health is rather poor.
The second issue is whether mental health problems are on the rise. There is reason to believe that they are. Not so much the psychotic conditions like schizophrenia and bipolar disorders but common disorders and neuroses such as depression, emotional problems, drug abuse and alcoholism, as they are related to socio-economic factors. There seems to be increasing awareness, acceptance and help-seeking. Hospital data do not convey much. There is an important gender difference. Evidence would suggest that in men it is violence and alcoholism, while in women it is depression and hysteria; conservative estimates put 8-10 per cent of the population as having diagnosable mental health problems that require treatment. It is not only the availability of psychiatrists but other mental health personnel like clinical psychologists and counsellors… these services are concentrated in a few States.
But it is a huge myth to believe that mental health services and health in general need to be taken only to rural areas, which presupposes that urban health is being taken care of. We conducted studies between 2004 and 2009 in Delhi, Lucknow and Chennai. They showed that the treatment gap was as much as 77 per cent, which meant that only one in four people with mental illness reached any facility. Stigma in help-seeking remains. There is no reason to believe it will be drastically different elsewhere.
Why is there such a shortfall in human resources in mental health?
There is growing recognition that mental health services are required. The crucial part is the human resource. The mechanism to generate the human resource is not succeeding. The NMHP [National Mental Health Programme] focussed on generating human resource, especially in the 10th and 11th Plans, but it ran into the problem of not having enough people to train people. The regulators, the MCI [Medical Council of India] and the RCI [Rehabilitation Council of India], could not increase the number of seats in colleges. Is the American or the European system of mental health necessarily a good one? What has happened is an over-psychiatrising of society. The pharmaceutical industry is always willing to give medicines. We have a difficult situation; we want to encourage people to come forward and yet not overdo it. In urban areas, we might be having a risk of overdoing it; the public might be already accessing it. The field of medical education has been rather tardy and unwilling to take this up as a major challenge.
Do you not think the government should prioritise this?
The issue is the gap between allocation and expenditure. It may be so for many programmes. The allocations are made with principles of flexibility, but the implementing agencies, hospitals, programmes and State governments are not able to utilise the funds. This is a quixotic situation. On the one hand, the funding agencies question why they are not able to spend, on the other the flexibility to utilise doesn't exist. In public service, one definite sin is wrongful expenditure but equally culpable is non-utilisation. If one is innovative, then the person is accused of overspending. The accounting and monitoring mechanisms have not kept pace with modern needs.

This demo performs a loopback test using the STM32 F4's USB Device peripheral. The OTG port on the board is configured as a USB CDC device endpoint, and a simple loopback implemented to echo back user inputs. In addition, the red LED on the Discovery board should blink at about 1 Hz.

## Operating System compatibility

Linux users may need to run:

```bash
sudo modprobe cdc_acm
```

to load the necessary kernel module, prior to plugging into the USB OTG port.

Windows users should see the port come up in device manager, but it is possible that on older Windows boxes, one might need to install a special INF file from ST to make Windows properly recognize the device as a USB CDC endpoint.

## Testing this demo

On a Linux system, the firmware can be built/loaded with:

```bash
make -j5 && make load
```

On Windows, MSYS can be used to run the "make -j5" portion of te above, while the STLink Utility needs to be downloaded (or a compatible JTAG probe used) to flash the resulting build artifacts (ELF/BIN files).

Once the firmware is flashed, with the USB OTG port unplugged, reset. The red LED should be flashing at about 1 Hz. Plug in a microUSB cable to the OTG port on the Discovery board. Two green LEDs should come up. Now, open the resulting serial port (typically /dev/ttyACM0 on Linux and COMx on Windows) on PuTTy, GNU Screen or Teraterm. You should be able to type text and see it echoed back.

What Jane Austen's 'Sense and Sensibility' Taught Me About Emotional Balance
Leave it to Jane to bring us clarity.
Lindsey Weishar
There is no other like Jane Austen to show us the value of examining our emotions. Whether urging us to humble ourselves to love in Pride and Prejudice or to examine how others' justly and unjustly influence us in Persuasion, Austen has a keen eye for finding the middle ground. Sense and Sensibility, one of my favorite Austen works, is no different. Through the story of the Dashwood sisters, this novel looks at two young women at the prime age for marriage. The sisters approach love in opposite ways, demonstrating that neither, in and of itself, is ideal.
Growing up with the 1995 film version of Sense and Sensibility, I have often found myself wanting to identify with the calm common sense of Elinor Dashwood (Emma Thompson), probably because I am much more like the overly expressive Marianne (Kate Winslet). Whether you tend to be more of a Marianne or an Elinor, I find that both the novel and the film offer quite a few insights into maintaining emotional balance. The more we insist on work-life balance, digital detoxes, and flexible schedules, I can't help but think that looking back to Austen's nineteenth-century wisdom is a great guide for finding any equilibrium today.
01. Identify the Value of Balance
Striving for emotional balance means allowing both my head and my heart to inform my decisions and reactions in daily life. I know I tend toward the sensibility side of things, so to balance myself out, I often need to take a step back and examine my feelings from a logical point of view. I'm not someone who would go screaming through the village in a rickshaw belonging to a dashing, if questionable, gentleman, but I can very much imagine going through a heartache like Marianne's, drowning my sorrows in Shakespeare and the pouring rain.
What I've come to realize over the years is that my true desire is to be the best parts of both Marianne and Elinor. Jane Austen uses the story of Sense and Sensibility to show readers that an excess of either sense or sensibility can be harmful. Marianne's overt expression of all her feelings led to heartbreak. She rushed into a relationship with Willoughby, who turned out to be a man of poor character. Elinor's refusal to enter into her emotions—her belief, as she puts it in the film adaptation, in "using one's head"—was at times unhealthy in the opposite direction. Upon discovering that Lucy Steele and her beloved Edward were in a secret relationship, she shared her heartbreak with no one, and in doing so, carried the weight of that grief alone.
Sense and Sensibility is ultimately about the Dashwood sisters coming into balance. Marianne learns that emotion tempered by reason is preferable, and approaches her relationship with Captain Brandon with a calmer, and deeper, kind of love. Similarly, Elinor comes to see the goodness of expressing her emotions. When she hears that Edward is free and is not in fact married to Lucy Steele, Austen writes in the novel, "Elinor could sit it no longer. She almost ran out of the room, and as soon as the door closed, burst into tears of joy, which at first she thought would never cease." I like to think that she learns from Marianne the importance of sharing her heart with others.
02. Find Different Perspectives
To really find balance, you have to seek it out—actively. Part of this is making sure you have things in your life that will keep you on your toes, not settled into a singular thought process. I've applied the wisdom of Sense and Sensibility to my life by surrounding myself with a variety of friends. Each one understands my heart in a different way. Some struggle in the same ways I do. One friend, who shares my melancholic temperament, infuses me with hope about the future because she understands how I approach life—which is sometimes with a lot of hesitancy. She encourages me not to be one-sided in my thinking and to consider the gifts of my temperament, like being able to listen well to others.
Other friends are what I like to call lighteners. Their upbeat and positive attitudes help me see the brightness of life that sometimes gets drowned out by my worries. One of my lightener friends always seems to be brimming with joy. The way she sees the world is so different from my own, and even in spending a little time with her, I'm reminded to be thankful for all the good that is in my life.
Austen has also taught me the value of self-reflection. In the midst of the busyness that is daily life, it is good to stop and take a step back from whatever activity I am doing to contemplate things, to recenter. The act of momentarily disentangling myself from the tasks that fill my days is a great way to be aware of how I am feeling and to respond accordingly. Like the Dashwood sisters, I could use these moments to make some tea or take an afternoon walk.
03. Give Yourself a Break
However you lean on the emotional temperament spectrum, it is important to value yourself especially when you're struggling. Whether it takes herculean effort to share how you're feeling with a close friend, or the greater battle is to keep from blurting every emotion you're experiencing in the present, it is important to realize that we don't change overnight. I may always be a bit anxious (and even tearful) when trying to express frustration; I may never calmly sip tea in times of crisis. This doesn't mean I can't take small steps toward learning to speak my mind despite my anxiety. The point of Sense and Sensibility is that Marianne and Elinor change—they both take steps toward the center in terms of how they encounter life.
Sense and Sensibility has inspired me to keep myself balanced emotionally by taking time to look at all the good that has happened throughout the day, and to jot down some of these things at the end of the day in a gratitude journal. One of my friends keeps a variation of this journal, and writes down one funny thing that has happened in the course of the day. I can go back and remember the positive things that have happened each day and be proud of myself for putting forth the effort to understand my emotions and my needs.
Austen may not have known the many distractions or modern problems we face today when it comes to fighting for emotional balance, but her wisdom is no less helpful. Operating in extremes is rarely ever the best course of action. Accepting your temperament yet challenging yourself to step outside of what feels innate is a powerful thing. I'm glad Austen has provided such delightful reads that help show us how.

Individuals who are searching for a profitable financial vehicle featuring consistent and above-average returns are frequently turning to an in-force annuity. With these types of financial products, a buyer has the ability to meet both their short and long-term financial goals.
These annuities are particularly beneficial due to their rate of return and security. An in-force annuity arises when an original annuitant no longer has a desire to receive structured, monthly payments over an extended period of time, and prefers to get a lump sum of cash today. The original annuitant sells their legal rights in these payments to a company, which then turns around and sells them to other individuals or businesses looking for a great financial product.
A savvy person is able to acquire these payments at a substantial discount, resulting in an above-average return on the instrument. While traditional financial products can yield a low rate of return that is comparable to a savings account or Certificate of Deposit, an in-force annuity commonly provides an overall return close to 7%.
More and more individuals are seeking alternatives to the stock market. A secondary market immediate annuity is an instrument that is overseen and issued by reputable and seasoned insurance companies with high credit ratings from notable rating agencies, such as A.M. Best, Moody's and Standard & Poors. These companies have been reviewed for their ability to disburse structured payments at the agreed upon intervals and satisfy claims.
The seller, along with their legal advisors, will have taken the time to confirm the validity of the instrument, in order to ensure that the legal right to receive future payments is completed correctly and with the full authority of all parties involved. The recording of your name as the true and rightful contract owner is also verified.
There are no fees associated with purchasing a secondary market immediate annuity, since the original annuitant has already incurred them. When you acquire this type of financial product, you need only remit the principal quoted.
You have the opportunity to gain access to an above-average rate of return by purchasing the right to receive the future payments of a secondary market immediate annuity. You can review the tables below, and if you have any questions, contact TotalReturnAnnuities.com at 1-866-866-1999.

From coral farming to 3D printing, scientists are using novel methods to save a vital part of our ecosystem
For most of us, the colourful, otherworldly marinescapes of coral reefs are as remote as the alien landscapes of the moon. We rarely, if ever, experience these underwater wonderlands for ourselves – we are, after all, air-breathing, terrestrial creatures mostly cocooned in cities. It is easy, therefore, not to notice the perilous state they're in: we've lost 50% of coral reefs in the past 20 years; more than 90% are expected to die by 2050 according to a presentation at the Ocean Sciences Meeting in San Diego, California earlier this year. As the oceans heat further and turn more acidic, owing to rising carbon dioxide emissions, coral reefs are tipped to become the world's first ecosystems to become extinct because of us.
Just because we don't see them doesn't mean we won't miss them. For, as we are belatedly discovering, the nice, dry human world that we've made for ourselves is dependent on the planet's natural systems and coral reefs are no exception. They protect our coastlands from erosion, they are the nurseries for the fish we eat and they harbour the plankton that produce the oxygen we breathe. Globally, coral reefs support a quarter of all marine life and the livelihoods of a billion people.

Q: How to write a background service in Android? The "service" here is different form one of the application components "service" in Android. I mean that people can not see the app icon in launcher, and, the can not see the app in the program manager in Android.
The most important is that I don't want the user notice the existence of the app.
Is that possible? Is it a "service" in Linux?

A: Without ROM modifications, you can't make a linux service. I will tell you what you CAN do.
First, your requirements

*

*Not see the app icon in launcher: This can be done by simply not having an activity that supports the ACTION.MAIN and CATEGORY.LAUNCHER intents.

*Not see the app in program manager: Unfortunately for you (but fortunately for all users) you can't get around this with a normal application.

*Have a service run "all the time": The best you can do here is start a foreground service upon boot of the device. This will cause a notification to be in the users notification bar, but its really the best you can do on stock phones.

Welcome to the HSA's Teacher Feature!
Every month, get to know another two of our schools' incredible teachers - one from the MS and one from the HS. Here's round 4!!!
What grade/s and subject/s do you teach?
Currently, I teach 7th Grade Integrated Science.
How long have you taught at Glen Rock MS?
I've been teaching here for five years.
What is something you love about teaching?
There is never a dull moment! Students bring such a wealth of knowledge and personal experiences to the classroom that they share every day. It's great to see students make connections between what they are learning and actual life experiences. Teaching is fulfilling for me because if I am able to get at least ONE student interested in science or brighten their day, I know I've made a positive impact in someone's life.
Tell us something interesting we might not know about you.
Prior to teaching, I worked in pharmaceutical advertising for almost six years. While I enjoyed aspects of my previous career, I really wanted to help people directly in some capacity. I've always been interested in Earth and Environmental Science, so I decided to go back to school to pursue teaching. Five years later, I still get excited about the material and ways to deliver it to the students. When I am not teaching, I can be found at home or the local playground chasing my two kids, volunteering within my community and trying to convince Mr. Valentino not to purchase any products containing palm oil because of the unsustainable harvesting methods associated with it.
His daughter had a small role in Mamma Mia!
I teach HS Music, which involves roles as Concert Choir Director for grades 9-12, Music Production (GRHS Musical) and Concert Band.
How long have you taught at Glen Rock HS?
I've been teaching here since 2005. This Fall (2019) will be my 14th year at GRHS, but 25th year teaching!
I love working with young people and helping them find a path to succeed. There's nothing better than seeing a student's eyes light up when he/she suddenly understands or can do something new - no longer needing my help.
Tell us something interesting we might not know about you.

When I run the application, I was not getting the values of Test1 and Test2 parameters. This approach works in the previous version of Telerik Reporting.
Can you take a look why it is not working the latest version anymore and advise if there is another way to accomplish this?
Just an additional info, it used to work on build Q2 2012 SP1 and it stopped working on Q3 2012 SP1 (6.2.13.110) build.
Using an event to set some text box values in your report is probably the main issue here.
It is not recommended to use events in your reports. This is often mentioned by Telerik staff in the forums and in their help: http://www.telerik.com/help/reporting/report-events.html (the first line).
Thank you Hardik for the insight. That helped me to solve my issue.

Q: Updating a complex data entity using Entity Framework I am using MVC3, C# 4.0 and Entity Framework in Visual Studio 2010. I have a complex data entity (one base type which contains two sub-entities; each of these then contain further entities).
I can see how to do a bulk update of everything but wonder what is the best practice for updating this when only a few fields may have changed.
Thanks in advance

A: Usually I good idea in such cases is to define a viewmodel which represents the data you get as an input from the user interface. This could be a flat representation of your complex graph. And then in your repository or better in your domain layer there could be a mapping or a handling method/class that fills your modelle or does batch/bulk updates etc...
So usually have some sort of class (or more) in the middle helps usually...
That are my 2 cents without knowing to much of your application architecture...

A: If the properties of multiple sub entities have changed, I would handle it as an update to the  complex data entity.  If only one of the sub entities needs to be updated, then I would handle it as an update to only that specific entity.  It's really a case by case basis type of situation.

Marie Reviews Keep No Secrets by Julie Compton
Keep No Secrets by Julie Compton
BOOK DESCRIPTION ON AMAZON:
After the ultimate betrayal, which is more important: trust or forgiveness?
In KEEP NO SECRETS, the controversial follow-up to Compton's debut legal thriller TELL NO LIES, a district attorney struggles to redeem himself after a one-night stand damaged his marriage and professional reputation.
After surviving the private and public fallout from a one-night stand four years before, St. Louis DA Jack Hilliard wants nothing more than to be trusted again by his wife, Claire, and to earn back the respect of the community he serves. Since the day Claire accepted him back into the family, he's vowed to be true to these goals, and so far he's succeeded.
But all of Jack's efforts begin to crumble when the woman involved in his earlier downfall, Jenny Dodson, returns to town claiming threats on her life and asking for his help, and resurrecting for Jack long-buried emotions and questions of her guilt for the murder of a client. Just when he thinks the pressure can't get any worse, his son's girlfriend, Celeste, accuses him of sexual assault, and he suddenly finds himself on the wrong end of a criminal case, battling for his freedom.
Can Jack trust his freedom to the legal system on which he built his career? Or will the ghost of his one-night stand four years before come back to haunt him, causing him to be convicted on the mistakes of his past?
Lies of Omission Are What Keep This Story Going
I want to start off by saying that I did not read the book before this one. This book did give enough information so that I could understand the story and it read well on its own. I was so involved in it, I didn't want to put it down. It is obvious the author has a deep knowledge of the legal system. I was engrossed with the story. There are many layers to the book: the marital relationship, the parent/child relationships, and the relationship Jack wants - but doesn't have - with Jenny. Jack made a mistake in the first book and cheated on his wife with Jenny, who was involved in the murder case of her father's mistress. This mistress was believed to be the reason Jenny's mother, father, and little sister were executed. Another man went to jail and Jenny walked away free. Jack is never sure if her feelings for him were real or if she used their one night together as an alibi for the crime. In this book, Jenny comes back, but Jack fights his impulses and his desires. Jenny says she needs his help because someone has been sending her threatening letters that look like they refer to the murder of her family. He doesn't know if he can trust her, but he agrees to help her anyway because he wants to know the truth about her once and for all.
His son, Michael, makes poor choices with his girlfriend, and in Jack's eagerness to repair some of the damage he caused their father/son relationship when he had the affair, he covers for Michael with Claire. This eventually bites Jack in the backside when Michael's girlfriend accuses him of sexual assault in a case where it is her word against his.
The way I read it, this story was of redemption. Jack tries to do the right thing for his marriage and his family while battling for his legal life against charges made by his son's girlfriend that he sexually assaulted her. Since being tried by the press previously for his adultery, it makes it an even bigger deal to be accused of assault by someone who looks so much like the woman he cheated with. Can he stay within the law, tell Claire no lies, and keep himself out of Jenny's bed while he proves his innocence and regains his son's respect?
I was hoping for a happy ending...but happy depends on your point of view. I'll let you form your own opinion.
I was given this book for free in exchange for an honest review.

While a large portion of cancer immunotherapies focus on targeting T cells, there has been a surge of interest in harnessing the relatively underexplored innate immune system for therapeutic intervention, with particular focus on natural killer (NK) cells, macrophages and dendritic cells. A growing number of studies into pathways elucidating innate cell biology, and the development of therapeutic agents to activate or suppress cell function, have set the stage for a new generation of cancer immunotherapies.
Cambridge Healthtech Institute's Inaugural Targeting Innate Immune Cells conference will convene immuno-oncology researchers, cancer immunotherapy developers, and technology providers to discuss current challenges and opportunities, from discovery immuno-oncology to clinical studies, share latest technologies and development approaches, as well as to provide updates on preclinical, clinical, and combination studies.

I will provide an update on clinical trial activities with aNK haNK cells expressing the high affinity Fc-Receptor for combination therapy with mAbs taNK cells engineered to express CARs for neo-epitopes. I will also discuss augmenting NK activity with IL-15 super-agonist Altor 803, as well as optimizing NK target activity through CRISPR-based gene manipulation.
Bahram (Bob) Valamehr, Ph.D., MBA, Vice President, Cancer Immunotherapy, Fate Therapeutics, Inc.
Through targeted transgene integration, we produced a clonal pluripotent cell master cell line to continuously produce NK cells engineered to uniformly express a novel high affinity, non-cleavable version of CD16 Fc receptor (hnCD16-NK). Preclinical data highlight the therapeutic value of hnCD16-NK cells as an ideal ADCC-mediated "off-the-shelf" NK cell-based immunotherapeutic product with augmented persistence, anti-tumor capacity, manufacturing reliability and preclinical efficacy.
Natural Killer (NK) cells are an essential component of innate immunity that actively inhibit tumor development. Here we present a novel single-cell method of analyzing the mechanisms underlying the cellular interactions of NK cells with multiple myeloma cells. The integrated droplet microfluidics device developed by our group permits compartmentalization of cell pairs and secreted products within sub-nanoliter volumes and thereby controls cell-to-cell communication by limiting it to interactions between the co-encapsulated cells. It allows monitoring of both contact-dependent (immune synapse formation, delivery of lytic hits) and contact-independent cellular interactions (release of cytokines, chemokines) simultaneously. This dynamic single-cell experimental model is expected to provide preclinical information particularly relevant to the scenario of NK cell-cancer cell interactions.
NK cells can be routinely produced from human pluripotent stem cells – both human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). hESC/iPSCs-derived NK cells have phenotype and function similar to peripheral blood NK cells and can be expanded into clinical-stage doses. hESC/iPSC-derived NK cells serve as a platform to test novel NK cell-specific CARs with improved anti-tumor activity.
We functionally defined two distinct human CD1d-reactive 'NKT' populations, invariant and 'non-invariant', from blood and tissues. NKT cells produce high levels of various cytokines/chemokines and potent CD1d-specfic cytotoxicity. NKT have physiological roles in anti-tumor and anti-viral responses. Reversible defects of NKT from cancer and other patients have led to promising translational observations. Our anti-NKT mAb is in clinical trials ex vivo, has been humanized and used in vivo, and is widely used in research. NKT can positively or negatively regulate anti-tumor immunity via NK and dendritic cells (DC). In mice, we found that interactions between NKT and CD1d+ DC augment Th1-type anti-viral and anti-tumor immunity – promising for therapy directly and with DC-based and other vaccines. NKT from tumor-bearing mice had reversible defects, similar to those we first identified in cancer patients. In humans, NKT cells appear to contribute to protective responses against cancers and viruses, and cancer patient survival is associated with Th1-biassed NKT. We describe our iNKT clinical trial in advanced melanoma. Further iNKT augmentation is in progress.
We demonstrate by genotype and functional parameters that the mechanism of action is induction of antigen specific Ab-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) in treated patients. Importantly, we describe for the first time that ADCC at sub-therapeutic drug concentration levels upregulates the inhibitory checkpoint PD-1/PD-L1 on tumor and effector cells. Combination of dinutuximab beta Apeiron with PD-1/PD-L1 blockade (nivolumab) results in synergistic treatment effects in vitro and in vivo.

Imprime has been safely administered to >400 human subjects. Imprime triggers a cascade of immune activating events that re-polarize the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and elicit maturation of antigen presenting cells. Unlike other PAMPs (TLR and STING agonists), Imprime is administered systemically. In preclinical tumor models, Imprime robustly enhances the anti-tumor efficacy of CPIs. Accordingly, Imprime is now being explored in multiple Phase II clinical trials in combination with pembrolizumab.
I will describe how a novel synthetic CDN derivative (ADU-S100) that has improved STING-activating and anti-tumor properties as compared to naturally derived CDNs was developed for clinical translation. I will show that activation of STING through IT administration of ADU-S100 results in effective anti-tumor efficacy and survival in several mouse syngeneic tumor models. I will discuss some of the mechanisms by which ADU-S100 induces tumor regression and plans for a Phase I clinical study with ADU-S100 to evaluate the safety and tolerability and possible anti-tumor effects in subjects with cutaneously accessible malignancies.
Our findings demonstrate a selective, inhibitory effect of phenformin, a mitochondrial complex 1 inhibitor, on G-MDSCs-driven immune suppression and support that phenformin improves the anti-tumor activity of PD-1 blockade immunotherapy in melanoma.
Immunicum's lead development candidate INTUVAX® uses dendritic cells harvested from healthy human donors that are specifically activated to produce significant amounts of vigorous immune stimulatory factors. By administration through intratumoral injection, these cells induce a local inflammatory reaction, leading to a local destruction of tumor cells and recruitment of the patient's own dendritic cells into the tumor environment.
Our group has established protocols to produce oligodendrocyte progenitors that upon transplantation into animals with spinal cord injuries can remyelinate denuded axons, induce axonal sprouting, and improve locomotor activity. Extensive preclinical studies have been completed to examine the activity, biodistribution, dosing, delivery, and potential toxicity and tumorigenicity of the oligodendrocyte progenitors. In collaboration with Cancer Research UK, Asterias is preparing for a clinical trial using these hESC derived dendritic cells as a cancer immunotherapy in non-small cell lung carcinoma in the neoadjuvant setting.
. CANscript ™ uses patient material (tumor, autologous ligands and PBMC) to explore the mechanism of action and predict efficacy for clinically-directed compounds in a modality-agnostic way using phenotypic effects.
This talk will explore the effects of anti-PD1 on CANscript tumor culture as insight into the capabilities of the platform.


Manchester City's title hopes have bitten the dust on Merseyside.
Just a fortnight after their crushing defeat at Liverpool, which left them clinging on in the race to be Champions, an even more abject performance at Goodison saw their Premier League ambition go up in smoke.
Pep Guardiola's side were taken apart by a rampart Everton, who weathered an early storm, before taking a grip on the game through a brilliant goal from Romelu Lukaku after a slick passing move.
Then Kevin Mirallas struck again just a minute after the break to totally deflate City – who seemed to give up after that blow.
And their inept second half display, where they looked shattered and totally lacking in ideas, was put into context with a third goal for the Blues late on, when youngster Tom Davies capped a fine display by steering the ball home.
Substitute Ademola Lookman capped a fine performance when he also netted his first goal for the club.
Here are five things we learned from Goodison.
Yaya Toure is no holding midfielder. Certainly not any more, he doesn't seem to have the legs to do the basic job of shielding his exposed defence, and that is putting yet more pressure on defenders who can't seem to cope at the best of times.
Defence is City's fatal flaw. For all their attacking brio in this game, they were undone just after half time by an Everton side who were largely clinging on up to that point. Why? Because they didn't have to do anything much to score, and when you concede goals so cheaply, you will not win titles.
For all that, Pep Guardiola's side who have a sometimes vivacious attacking instinct. The combinations between De Bruyne, Silva and Sterling were often breathtaking, and it was a real mystery not only how they didn't score in the first half, but how they didn't put the game safe.
Credit to Everton though, they did what they had to do with some style. They may have been forced to soak up a lot of pressure – who doesn't against City – but when the key moments arrived, they executed them with a real clinical instinct, their passing razor sharp to create chances.
Chances are what Romelu Lukaku needs. He has hardly pulled up trees of late, his work rate questionable, but seriously, give him the ball anywhere near the box and he will deliver. If Diego Costa does leave Chelsea in January, then you can bet there will be a MASSIVE bid for him from the Blues.
Robles 7 - Crucial block from Silva. Lucky not to concede a penalty.
Coleman 7 - Has remained consistent this season and full of energy again. Solid.
Holgate 7 - Booked. Looks a real prospect. Some outstanding blocks and interceptions.
Williams 7 - Some scary moments in the first half, but generally marshalled the defence well.
Funes Mori 6 - Enjoys stepping out of defence but also gets dragged horribly out of position.
Baines 7 - Enjoying brilliant renaissance as he defended and got forward well.
Barry 7 - Provided a steady head and composure in midfield. Still going strong.
Davies 8 - Hair straight out of a 90s boyband, he was terrific. And scored first senior goal.
Barkley 7 - Crowd turned the first (and only) time he gave the ball away. Two assists.
Mirallas 8 - Great assist for the opener and then brilliant finish for the second. Excellent.
Lukaku 8 - MotM. Fantastic finish for Everton opener. His power bullied City's defence.
Bravo 5 - Looks vulnerable in every game. Neither a sweeper or a keeper. Shaky.
Sagna 6 - Saw a header cleared off the line and was the better of City's full backs.
Otamendi 5 - Often dragged out of position by Everton's movement. Uncomfortable game.
Stones 7 - Booed on his return. Did OK but it is hard playing in this City defence.
Clichy 5 - Gave the ball away horribly in the build-up to Everton's opener.
Zabaleta 5 - City spend so much money and end up with Zabaleta in midfield. Hooked early.
Toure 6 - Still possesses great quality but you can't play him and Zabaleta together.
Silva 6 - Booked. Some quality moments in the first half but needed to be far more ruthless.
De Bruyne 7 - Good performance particularly first half. Full of ideas despite the result.
Sterling 6 - Long range shot hit the post, unlucky not to get a penalty and was generally lively.
Aguero 6 - Went close on numerous occasions. Needed to be far more ruthless and clinical.
