In Bangladesh women's health issues are traditionally neglected and inadequate importance is given by all concerns. A majority of the women experience significant morbidity associated with pregnancy and delivery (Goodburn et al., 1994). Since women's health is a fundamental human right and must clearly be promoted as such immediate attention should be given to this concern (WHO, 1995). With this interest, women's health problem should be recognized and addressed from their own perspective. Because research results show that women's health behaviour is governed by what they perceive as good or ill health, whether this is consistent with bio-medical model or not (Khatib, 1992). So to promote women's health, their health problems should be addressed from their own perspective.
The study aimed to understand illnesses from the perspective of women in the community and their health seeking behaviour with respect to some specific illness.
This qualitative study was exploratory by nature. The cognitive and symbolic aspects were the main focus in the study. Kleinman's concept of explanatory model' helped to map out and interpret the ideas in the study. Being a part of the BRAC-IGDDR,B joint research project the study was done in Matlab DSS (Demographic Surveillance System) area purposively. The study population was the married women in the study area (age ranges from 18 to 50). The study dealt with both BRAC and non BRAC women separately. Simple random sampling technique and convenient sampling were used to select the informants. Different qualitative methods were used for data collection, such as- free listing, pile sorting, matrix ranking, key informant interview and group discussions.
The study revealed that women had their own definition about ill health condition. They were also found to link up different illnesses based on their own reasoning. While determining the severity of a condition immediate threat to life was of prime concern to them.
The study women had their own perspective in explaining every illness they experienced and thus they identified the causes of ill health and amplified a pattern of the ailment. There were certain folk theories such as hot and cold, purity and pollution, batas laga, nosto kora, etc. by which they constructed the causal relations. In diagnosing ill health, knowledge about different illnesses (learned from other's experiences) and consultation with relatives, neighbours or traditional healers were the significant factors.
Therapeutic Choice of the women largely depended on beliefs about the causes of illness, explanation of illness, availability of health services, socioeconomic condition, and past experience of efficacy of treatment. It was found that the women did not rely on one therapeutic method throughout the whole course of illness episode. They tried one by one-accessible medical services and sometimes repeated the earliest one. However, other pattern of 'illness specific' health seeking behavioural was also observed (Hardon et al., 1995). The women usually termed bhute dhora, alga dhora, etc. as illnesses caused by evil spirit. In such cases, they seek kabiraji and moulovi treatment. They blindly believed that only the Allahar kalam (divine verses) could help cure the illness.
Attitude of the society and family towards illness acted as an influencing factor at every stage from illness identification to treatment seeking behaviour. Women often tried to conceal some illnesses which have social stigma attached. In such situation women tried not to disclose the illness to their in-laws and husbands, rather getting treatment themselves through peers network and as a last resort, went to natal home for treatment.
• On the basis of this study finding some focused ethnography on particular women's illnesses can be designed. That will help us to get a detailed picture on different illness situation specifically. That may provide new insight regarding women's health intervention issues.
• BRAC could help the destitute women in the village who have been suffering from different reproductive health problems for a long time but can not seek medical help because of shyness, social norms and restrictions. Since the shasthya shehikas of BRAC are quite popular among the rural women BRAC can provide them with new knowledge on the early treatment of some reproductive health problems.

The image of the Antichrist as a cowled beast is found in the margin of St. John's College Cambridge MS. 42, f. 94r., next to a copy of Wulfstan's Latin homily De Anticristo. It is reproduced here by permission of the Master and Fellows of St. John's College, Cambridge, and may not be downloaded or reproduced without permission.
Towards the beginning of his career, Archbishop Wulfstan of York (d. 1023) wrote five Old English homilies on the last days, a subject that preoccupied him throughout his life and writing, although he did not write specifically on that topic again. All five homilies are based in large part on Latin notes compiled from a variety of sources and printed by Dorothy Bethurum as Homily Ia of her edition. This electronic edition of the Old English eschatological homilies is designed to bring together Wulfstan's writings on the last days and his sources in an easily accessible format. It includes newly edited texts and new translations of the five homilies, fully glossed texts of each homily, and transcriptions of the manuscripts in which they are preserved, combined with the Latin and Old English sources and analogues which pertain to Wulfstan's work and a bibliography of primary and secondary materials.
An electronic edition provides certain advantages over a printed text. The most obvious is that the apparatus of the edition can be hyperlinked to the texts themselves so that the relevant notes, variants, sources, and glosses may be accessed with the click of a mouse. In addition, two or more texts can be compared side by side in adjoining frames, searches can be performed quickly and painlessly, and the texts themselves may be manipulated to reveal or conceal manuscript context, scribal interpolations, and emended or doubtful passages. Most important, however, is the fact that an editor need no longer choose between offering a diplomatic edition, a critical edition, or a simple manuscript transcription: all three can be provided simultaneously, and the interested student is thereby afforded an opportunity to see both the homilist and the editor at work.
The edition is still very much a work under construction. This introductory essay will be expanded and revised, and there are essays, notes and links still to be added, along with a search engine. But even when the work I plan is "finished," as an electronic edition this site will remain "open," since unlike a print edition, it can undergo virtually infinite expansion and revision as scholarly work on Wulfstan and Anglo-Saxon England continues.
I would like to acknowledge my debt to Melissa Bernstein's fine pioneering work on her electronic version of Sermo Lupi ad Anglos , which provided the inspiration and some of the format for this edition. I welcome comments on what I have done so far; please send your corrections and suggestions to me at jlionarons@ursinus.edu.

Q: Is retrotranslator-runtime dependency required? I forked a project and retrotranslated it.
https://github.com/jinahya/json-cdc
When I use that library, in an application, and tried to proguard it I got a bunch of warnings saying...
[proguard] Warning: ...: can't find referenced class ...retrotranslator.runtime13...

When I looked the library class, which is retrotranslated, I see that class refers retrotranslator's class.
Should retrotranslator-runtimeXX be added as a dependency or that library?
[INFO] --- maven-dependency-plugin:...
[INFO] com.my.lib
[INFO] \- net.sf...:retrotranslator-runtime13:jar:1.2.9:runtime
[INFO]    \- backport...:backport-util-concucrrent-java12:jar:3.1:runtime

Or, should the application using the library add them by themselves?
Or, Doesn't it needed to be added at all?

A: There is an option for embedding retrotranslator-related classes.
-embed <package>

e.g.
-embed com.your.retrotranslator

And then those required classes from Retrotranslator are embedded in your final classes.

Hans Gercke: LORIS CECCHINI
Heidelberg, March, 2001
0n the floor of the nearly empty hall, stranded like a whale in the shoals, apocalyptically blasted open as if by a demented pianist running amok, writhes a once magnificent grand piano — an image of woe. At some distance we see a cluster of folding chairs, also more or less bizarrely deformed, disarranged and falling over, handwringing weepers, citizens of Calais bemoaning their fate - like them bravely defying catastrophe, by no means completely broken, far from being definitively resigned. At least one triad, a little further away, leaned up against the wall, remains more or less on its feet.
Visitors to the exhibition wonder: What could have happened, what horri?c catastrophe might have transpired?
The disturbing scene oscillates between drama and irony and yet, strangely enough, it also exhibits a quiet, poetic melancholy, similar to that of the photographs and videos on display right next to the described installation, on and underneath the gallery. These, therefore, are the three groups of works presented by Loris Cecchini in the Heidelberger Kunstverein, in his first major exhibition in Germany.
Musical instruments in art — shattered violins, piled in a heap and covered with aspic; cellos with implanted video monitors; but above all, pianos, pianos, pianos: decked outwith lights, shrouded in felt, brutally hanging from the ceiling, suddenly falling open with an apocalyptic roar, terrorizing visitors, literally tortured to death in a sadistic performance - this evidently is a topical theme, much loved in contemporary art. It seems as if artists had a sort of love/ hate relationship with this instrument, and at some point it might be worth scrutinizing this more closely.
But here things are not quite so bad. The smashed piano is take, a copy cast in rubber, though - very painstakingly - reproduced with minute details, and thus, even as a gray replica, still identifiable as a once costly instrument from the late 19th century, mode in ltaly. The chairs also are mode of rubber, and their expressive demeanor is largely due to the flabby heaviness of the material.
And thus, no catastrophe has actually taken place. What we see here is, rather, a deconstructivist memorial, the gray shadow of something that once was, but is now irretrievably gone — a manifesto of memory, a melancholy mememto mori, o symbol of vanity.
More important than the professionally manicured collector's item is the staged polarity of instrument and chairs, that is, the opposition between o place of presentation and o zone of perception. And then the striking distance that opens up between the two: Mind the gap.
The scene does not necessarily let us assume an unbroken relationship between producer and recipient. Might then the theme of this installation be art itself - art as a failed, or at least problematic attempt at communication? Loris Cecchini's works cannot be reduced to the simple denominator of one Single, clearly definable message.
But the perspective implied above gives deconstructivist deformation a plausible thematic dimension.
Everything is Theater. Even in the photographs we encounter this aspect again and again. We see rows al seats, balconies, stage, spectators; and again and again there are ruptures, aspects al the absurd. Everything is artificial, everything is play' performance, dream, illusion. The young Milanese artist's work deals with the world of images and their relation to reality, with our perception and, as well, with the possibilities of both traditional and new digital technologies, which he applies with such consummate mastery.
For Cecchini, however technology is neither an end in itself nor merely a means of sly deception. It is' rather' also the content of what is being represented. The viewer is never so ensnared by the seduction of the trompe l'oeil that he can no longer escape - Cecchini is not interested in the production of habit-forming virtual worlds from the digital test-tube. He cares more about making the deception recognizable as such and thus pointing the viewer back toward the world of reality. But: What is reality? In Cecchini's work highly dissimilar realities came together, reminiscences of the most different origins. And each of them is as real or unreal as the new whole that is created from this encounter as a work of art.
It is worth devoting some attention to the sculptural quality of these "soft," rubber sculptures, and examining the individual components of the work, each for itself, and also in correlation
with one another and with the overall space — from different perspectives, and especially from above, i.e., from the gallery.
For Cecchini's installation was created specifically for this space. Of course this does not mean it would not be able to unfold its presence somewhere else, but in that case it would probably be
in a notably different arrangement, and one equally specific to the space in which it is shown. Nonetheless, the relation is not merely of a formal nature. The iconography itself, the idea with
the grand piano, is directly related to the "genius loci". The hall of the Heidelberger Kunstverein, Cecchini explains, reminded him of a concert hall, not to mention the fact that to him the piano is
an element that is highly typical of German culture, in contrast to Italy. Furthermore, Heidelberg is a cultural city with o very strong focus on music.
The spatial relation also involves the — one could almost say nonexistent — color of the objects. Cecchini's concert ensemble presents itself in neutral gray, a gray that links the variety of forms in the manner of a basso continuo, and which, he explains, is an absolute characteristic of artificiality — the artificiality, for instance, of computer texts and images, before these, then, secondarily and randomly, are again charged with color; but also of the cool, sober colorlessness of computer hardware and similar technological equipment.
It is easily apparent that any other color would be unthinkable, if we only try to imagine such a color within the given context. Any other color would bring a determination into play that would immediately destroy the intended openness and indefiniteness of this work. And thus it is also fully intended by the artist that the gray of the piano and the chairs hardly stands out against the light-colored terrazzo floor and just barely against the white of the walls. And this nebulous blurring of contrasts is likewise to be found in the photographs and the video installation.
The anchoring of his work in authentic experience is important to Cecchini. Thus, in the end, the setting that dictates the character of the entire exhibition — the grand piano, the empty rows of chairs, also encountered in the photographs, the allusions to stage and audience — has a very concrete origin. It is not necessary to know this to be able to approach the work. Nonetheless, such knowledge is helpful, for it casts a significant light on Cecchini's relationship to reality and perception.
All the above-mentioned details are from a beautiful cinema from the 1950s, which is no longer in operation today and now belongs to the Galleria Continua in San Gimignano, one of the biggest and most beautiful galleries in Italy, whose young and engaged team has close ties with Loris Cecchini and his work.
One enters the gallery, located in the heart of San Gimignano, from the Piazza della Cisterna and descends through impressive historical rooms and medieval vaults to arrive unexpectedly in the aforesaid cinema, which now, within the framework of the gallery, offers a space for a wide variety of installations and performances — a situation not bereft of surreal components. The play is over, but the theater continues, even if no longer on stage.
Cecchini's newest works have much to do with all of the above. Let us look at one of his pictures more closely.
The hall is empty — or almost. In the foreground there stands a woman, most likely a tourist, who is looking very concentratedly, almost strenuously, into the light, trying to see something where the viewer can imagine the cinema screen. But what is happening on the screen, if there is or ever was one, remains hidden, like the before and after of this seeming snapshot, which is something like a movie still, though of course anything but o random shot. Instead, it is quite carefully composed, and if we look more closely at how the picture was processed, this fact is also confirmed from the technical side.
Moving away from the central figure, the viewer's attention now focuses on the background, where two people, apparently trying to protect themselves from a heavy rain shower, quite paradoxically are hurrying toward the exit. This action, creating a counterpoise in the picture's composition, appears strangely random and quotidian, simultaneously natural and absurd. lt is as if the virtual images had separated themselves from the screen and broken into the reality of
the room - or, rather, the reality of the image and of the image space.
Cecchini's pictures undoubtedly have a surreal component. But this results not from the classic encounter of an umbrella with a sewing machine on a dissecting table, but from an encounter that is so can fusing because it displays unreal features without being unimaginable in daily reality. "Cecchini composes surreal pictorial narratives just a hair's breadth beyond the possible yet still far enough away from the absurd. Herein lies the fascination of these photographs and their suggestive force," writes Dagmar Burisch in an exhibition review.1
ln so far, it is surely correct when it is pointed out in a catalogue text on Cecchini that his influences are less to be found in the classical Surrealists than in their predecessors, the masters of the "Pittura Metofisica, " such as De Chirico, but also in the mysteriously still
compositions of Giorgio Morandi2, who, not coincidentally, tunes his pictures to the subtle nuances of a richly shaded gray. But in contrast to Morandi's still-lifes - seldom does a term fit so precisely as here - Cecchini tells stories. His pictures seem to be snapshots; they have
the flavor of an objet trouvé, of — in the words of Susan Sonntag — "snapshot archeology".
But Cecchini would not be Cecchini if it were all as simple as that. For only in port do these pictures have the character of snapshots; in them, the boundaries between reality and illusion - or, better, between different realms of reality — occur on different levels, and all of them, as already implied, are rigorously calculated and con- structed compositions — to use this term in a comprehensive and precise sense. lt should be noted that here precision and rigor in no way conflict with the, one could almost say, romantic poetry and tenderness of these works, or even o certain playful lightness that has nothing to do with lightheadedness, but likewise shares nothing with Teutonic relentlessness.
Nor do these pictures have anything in common with the surrealistic "ecriture automatique". They are neither uniform derivatives of reality nor reproductions of compositions staged solely for the purpose of being captured photographically. They are no surrealistically mixed-up assemblage of motits or syntheses of virtual images dreamed up on the computer screen from the collection of Photo-Shop or similar programs. As mentioned above, what Loris Cecchini cares about is the relationship with tangible, material reality, as shown by his increased interest in the obiect and the spatial installation in his new work.
His photographic work is based on the combination of photographs directly taken from his experience at reality — and at these he has an enormous collection (a large number at the people depicted in the pictures exhibited here were photographed in the streets of Taipei, where Cecchini participated in the Biennale last year) - with an atmosphere that, while by no means unintluenced by the realm of concrete experience, as shown by the reference to San Gimignano, was ?rst painstakingly constructed by the artist as a model landscape and then photographed in a fairly conventional manner. Sometimes only small but vital details give an indication of the model character, for instance, nails that reveal something about the obiect's size.
lnto the interiors he has thus created — in earlier works Cecchini dealt primarily with desolate, anonymous landscapes at the urban periphery, likewise reconstructed in model form - he then integrates the figures taken from reality. Only in this phase of the work does the computer come into play, enabling a fusion and assimilation that can hardly be imagined in a more elegant form. Cecchini sees his trod with photography and computer as "classical" painting using different means. With the help of the computer he creates perspecti ve adaptation, shadow, sfumato, reflection.
Like Cecchini's formal stringency, this process of combining, which, in turn, is not just a means to an end but a readable substantive consideration of the levels and ruptures of ways of conveying reality - with new reality constantly being created - points much further back than Pittura Metafisica or Surrealism. It is reminiscent of the "sacre conversazioni" of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, and of the altarpieces of the great Italian masters in particular, in which space and time were bridged in a completely plausible way, "sub specie aeternitatis," and highly divergent realms at reality were imoginarily connected with one another.
In Cecchini, the confrontation between the "naturalness" of the figures and the recognizable "artificiality" of their surroundings is an essential aspect of the described process of composition with contrasting realities. Today, however, the rupture is no longer as obvious as in earlier works, where Cecchini worked mainly with the amazing assimilation of different scales and, à la Gulliver, had "real" people climbing around on a toy car or - even earlier, before he started
recreating reality in models - situated himself as a midget in the exciting world of enlarged household appliances - in the sink and in the soap dish, in the iungle of computer cabels or the grandiose cupola of a washing-machine drum.
It may be that these works, created in the years 1997-1999, are more witty, more spectacular than the newer ones discussed here.
But there is no question that since then Cecchini's work has grown beyond the formulation of original points and the virtuoso performance of amazing special effects into a mature, a for more complex and intense art where, nonetheless, the dimension of the philosophical and the meditative does not exclude that of the humorous.
In 1998 Cecchini began to turn the tables and decisively expand the repertoire of his series of works. The principle of inserting photographs of real persons into a model landscape was ioined by the construction of threedimensional models on a scale of 1:1, which were then, in turn, situated in real space. The circle closes in a highly topical way: The model af the real obiect, constructed alter the reality, takes its place in reality.
lnitially Cecchini was working with enlarged reproductions of plastic blanks with the casting burrs left on as an element of distress. But soon he discovered that the material of synthetic rubber was extremely well suited as a medium for his intentions for the manufacture of 1:1 casts at real abiects, whose amazing artificiality results from the material's soft-sculpture character on the one hand, and the use of the previously mentioned neutral gray, on the other.
The viewer may feel reminded once again of the art of the Old Masters: not only the abovementioned gray of Morandi, but also the grisailles of the Renaissance and the Baroque. He may even think of art from tar earlier times, such as when the colored panels at late Gothic altarpieces were flanked by the figures of saints painted in gray on gray-painted pedestels, which, within the iconographic context, are not meant to be any less real or unreal than their colored counterparts, but in the system of illusionistic reproduction are on a different level, namely, that of pictures of pictures, depictions of fictitious sculptures.
Cecchini's predilection for the color gray culminates in the already mentioned video, which at one level treats with irony the only all too well known theme of the toils of Sisyphus: People are sweeping dust, which spreads out all the more evenly with increasing activity.
But at a deeper level it has become an extremely poetic, positively visionary investigation of the topic of perception and insight, of becoming visible and invisible, of the dialectics of revelation and secrecy, a work on the miracle of light, of becoming and passing away, which simultaneously makes a statement about the almost ritual dignity and importance of completely unspectacular, seemingly unimportant, perhaps even nonsensical actions. In conversations, Cecchini has made a connection between this apotheosis of the quotidian with Zen philosophy.
In her previously mentioned review, Dagmar Burisch describes the video as follows: "Behind whirled up clouds of dust and veils of haze, the contours of the visible blur into the unreal scenery. In his search for the moment between standing still and movement, between the seeming and the real, Loris Cecchini has struck gold."3
ln the installation with the grand piano, however, Cecchini has translated the pictorial principle of his photographic works into threedmensional space. The film is running, and the part of the Chinese people, the actors in this theater of the seeming and the real, has long been taken on by those visiting the exhibition.

Nucleotides play a variety of important roles in all cells. They are the activated precursors of DNA and RNA. ATP, an adenine nucleotide, is a universal currency of energy in biological systems. GTP is an essential carrier of chemical energy. Adenine nucleotides are components of the coenzymes NAD+, NADP+, FMN, FAD and Coenzyme A. UDP-Glucose in Glycogen synthesis and CDP-diacylglycerol in Phosphoglyceride synthesis are the nucleotide derivatives that act as activated intermediates. Cyclic AMP is a ubiquitous mediator for the action of many hormones. All cells can synthesize nucleotides from simple building blocks (de novo synthesis) or by the recycling of pre-formed bases (Salvage pathway). Nucleotides are phosphate esters of pentoses in which a nitrogenous base is linked to C1' of the sugar residue. A nucleotide without the phosphate group is known as a nucleoside. The major purine components of nucleic acids are adenine and guanine residues. The major pyrimidine residues are those of Cytosine, Uracil and Thymine. Pyrimidines are bound to ribose through N 1 atoms.
Pyrimidine ring is synthesized as free pyrimidine and then it is incorporated into the nucleotide. 6 reactions are involved in the synthesis of UMP. UDP and UTP are synthesized from UMP with the help of ATP. CTP is formed by adding an amino group from glutamine. Pyrimidine can also be salvaged using PRPP. In orotic aciduria, excretion of large amount of orotic acid is observed. It results from the deficiency of either orotate phospho ribosyl transferase or OMP decarboxylase.
Ribonucleotide reductase catalyzes the synthesis of deoxyribonucleotide. The reductant is NADPH. Thioredoxin transfers electrons from NADPH for reduction of 2'-OH of ribose. dTMP is formed by thymidylate synthase by methylation of deoxy uridine monophosphate.
Nucleotides of a cell undergo continuous turnover. Purines are catabolized and the end product is uric acid. Gout is a disease characterized by elevated levels of uric acid in body fluids. Sodium urate crystals are precipitated in the joints and soft tissues to cause painful arthritis. In Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, HGPRT deficiency occurs, leading to excessive uric acid production through PRPP accumulation. Gout is treated by allopurinol administration. Animal cells degrade pyrimidine nucleotides to their component bases by dephosphorylation, deamination and glycosidic bond cleavages to give rise to carbon dioxide, ammonia, β-alanine and β-amino isobutyrate.
Nucleotides are the components of many enzyme cofactors. Adenosine is a part of their structure in a variety of enzyme cofactors serving a wide range of chemical functions. Coenzyme A is synthesized from pantothenic acid and ATP.

There are 11 reactions in the formation of IMP. Nucleoside monophosphates are converted to nucleoside diphosphates by base specific monophosphate kinases. Purine nucleotide synthesis is regulated by feedback inhibitor – AMP, GMP and IMP. Recycling of purines formed by the degradation of nucleotides is possible. Pyrimidine ring is synthesized as free pyrimidine and then it is incorporated into the nucleotide. Nucleotides of a cell undergo continuous turnover. Uric acid is the breakdown product of purine nucleotide. Gout is a disease characterized by elevated levels of uric acid in body fluids. Pyrimidines on degradation give rise to carbon dioxide, ammonia, β-alanine and β-amino isobutyrate.

SEC Basketball Power Rankings: Ugh, the Vols again?
Photo by Madison Lindeman
Jaime Perez
With the calendar turned to 2019 and conference play underway, it's time to take a look at how the Southeastern Conference stacks up.
Here are your power rankings for the new year:
Not only is Tennessee currently the best team in the SEC, but they might be the best team in all of college basketball. Last year's surprising regular season conference co-champions had the majority of their deep and dangerous roster return and it has shown.
The squad, headed by the tandem of Grant Williams and Admiral Schofield – arguably the best one-two punch in the nation – only has one loss (to the then #1 ranked Kansas Jayhawks, in overtime and on the road no less), while dominating most of their games and even beating then-#1 Gonzaga on a neutral court. The Vols opened up SEC play with a 46-point beatdown of Georgia and then beat Missouri by 24 three days later.
They currently lead the conference in overall points per game, field goal percentage, assists per game, and blocks per game. It is looking like a special year for Rick Barnes's team.
2. Auburn
The Auburn Tigers are the other half of last season's unexpected regular season conference co-champs. Just like Tennessee, most of their important players are back (excluding last year's leading scorer Mustapha Heron) for another run. They also added players who missed parts, or the entirety, of the previous season either due to injury (Anfernee McLemore) or eligibility concerns (Austin Wiley and Danjel Purifoy) to their versatile roster.
The Tigers, currently ranked #11, have several wins over solid teams like Washington, Arizona, and Murray State and have only lost to current #1 Duke and #15 NC State. Though they have not begun SEC play, it certainly looks like they will compete against Tennessee for the conference title.
The perennial powerhouse Kentucky Wildcats shockingly finished 4th in regular season conference play last year, yet were able to heat up at the right moment and win the SEC tournament. As usual, John Calipari's squad lost most of its starters, but brought in another elite recruiting class (#2 in the nation) to replace them, along with grad transfer Reid Travis.
The Wildcats have been inconsistent this year; after getting crushed by Duke in their season opener, they rattled of seven straight double digit victories, yet were then upset by Seton Hall and Alabama in their SEC opener. Keldon Johnson is looking like Kentucky's yearly lottery pick, while Travis, Tyler Herro, and PJ Washington have helped carry the load. With talent at every position, this team is likely the best challenger to Tennessee and Auburn.
Mississippi State currently has the second best overall record in the conference at 12-2, which is a considerable improvement from last year's 21-10 team. Despite having one of their best recruiting classes in recent memory, the team's top-five scorers are all upperclassmen, led by the sharpshooting senior Quinndary Weatherspoon. The Bulldogs currently do not boast any great wins, but their only two losses have come against a good Arizona State team and at South Carolina in OT. The #14 team in the nation will try to bounce back from their defeat on Saturday vs Ole Miss.
5. Ole Miss
The conference's biggest surprise is without a doubt the Ole Miss Rebels. Projected to finish last in the SEC preseason media poll, the team is 1-0 in conference play and 11-2 overall. Having finished 14th last season, head coach Kermit Davis has worked a remarkable turnaround in his first year on the job.
Despite being known for his zone defenses, it is Ole Miss's offense that is currently one of the most efficient in the nation, according to Kenpom Ratings. In their most recent game, Breein Tyree, second in the SEC in scoring, dropped a career-high 31 against Vanderbilt. The Rebels have a crucial week coming up as they face conference foes Auburn and Mississippi State.
LSU is yet another solid team that is not ranked higher due to the SEC's ridiculous depth. Second-year coach Will Wade was able to recruit five-star power forward Naz Reid to add a big man to play alongside their formidable combo-guard duo of Skylar Mays and Tremont Waters. The Tigers are 11-3 overall and began conference play by beating Alabama (at home). This win was the best of the season so far for a team that has no terrible losses, nor any great wins. LSU will try to boost their SEC record in the next game at Arkansas.
7. Alabama
The joy of upsetting Kentucky on the basketball court in their SEC opener on Sunday was likely erased by the football team's loss on Tuesday in the national championship, yet Alabama basketball is 10-4 overall and already beat one of their conference's favorites.
The Crimson Tide lost their best player this season in top-ten pick Collin Sexton, yet they are currently doing better than a year ago behind their freshman phenom Kira Lewis Jr. Despite the team's great win over Kentucky, they have had a roller coaster of a season as they came out three nights later and lost to LSU, while also having very bad losses against both Georgia State and Northeastern.
The fact that Florida is arguably the most disappointing team in the conference speaks volumes about its level of talent. Even though the Gators are an unimpressive 8-5 overall and 0-1 in the SEC, their only bad losses have been a 21-point loss to a 13th-ranked Florida State in the season opener (on the road) and one against South Carolina where they lost on a game-winner.
Kenpom ratings actually has them as a top-25 team, far and away the best team to have not reached ten wins, and they even received a vote in the last AP poll. The Gators are clearly struggling offensively as they only have two players (KeVaughn Allen and Noah Locke) who are averaging double figures in the points column, yet their defense has kept them afloat as it is one of the best in the nation. They will play Tennessee this weekend at home in what could be a statement game for Mike White's squad.
9. Vanderbilt
Vanderbilt's season did not end with Darius Garland's meniscus injury. The Commodores are a worse squad without him and they are finding it difficult to replace his playmaking and scoring, yet the rest of the roster has shown that they will not simply lie down and give up on the season. Led by Saben Lee and Simi Shittu, the team is 5-3 since the injury with the losses coming against three above-average teams in NC State, Kansas State, and Ole Miss, while they also got a crucial sixteen-point win against then #18 Arizona State.
They did lose their SEC home opener against the aforementioned Rebels, but it is worth noting that: Vanderbilt had the lead for the majority of the game, had its worst free-throw performance of the season, and Breein Tyree of Ole Miss had a career night. Bryce Drew and his team will need to improve their defense if they want to increase their chances of making it to the tournament. The Commodores next games are against Georgia and Kentucky where they will look to get back on track.
10. Arkansas
Rounding out the top ten, and the list of SEC teams with a real chance to make the Tournament, is Arkansas. The Razorbacks have a strong 10-3 overall record and are 1-0 against the conference. So far they have one good win against Indiana early in the season, yet two very bad losses against Georgia Tech and Western Kentucky. Possible lottery pick Daniel Gafford is making his case for SEC Player of the Year as he anchors their defense while nearly averaging a 17-point double-double. They will take on the struggling Gators in their next SEC game.
11. Missouri
The Missouri Tigers are another team that have outplayed their projections so far. The Tigers are sitting at 9-4 overall, though they have no outstanding wins and were blown out by Iowa State and Kansas State. Still, what Cuonzo Martin's team has done is impressive, especially considering that they lost their best player (and projected lottery pick) Jontay Porter just before the season. Their two lead guards, Jordan Geist and Mark Smith, have done an excellent job of replacing his scoring and playmaking.
After losing by 24 to Tennessee in their SEC opener, the Tigers have a crucial matchup against South Carolina on Saturday.
12. South Carolina
The Gamecocks may be near the top of the SEC standings at 2-0, but they are also close the bottom when considering overall records. South Carolina has proven that it can beat very good teams like Florida and Mississippi State, but they also have an assortment of losses to woeful teams, showing the squad's inconsistency.
Two of the team's bright spots are freshmen standouts A.J. Lawson (their leading scorer) and Keyshawn Bryant. Though the victory over the Bulldogs may give the team a spark, to make the NCAA Tournament, head coach Frank Martin (and the fans) will likely have to hope they can recapture the magic from their Tourney run two years ago.
Georgia is one of the SEC teams that is meeting their expectation of being in the conference's bottom tier. While an 8-5 overall record isn't terrible, they have no good wins and several awful losses, including a 46-point decimation at the hands of the Volunteers in their SEC opener. The Bulldogs' best hope for the future is the fact that they are being driven by a skilled sophomore class, but it seems unlikely that they will make any real noise in the conference this year.
14. Texas A&M
In the SEC, Texas A&M is the team that has had the biggest drop-off from the season before. This year's 6-7 team is very different from the one that comfortably eliminated North Carolina to make it to the Sweet Sixteen just a year ago. The decline is understandable, and was easy to predict, as the Aggies lost several key players to graduation and to the draft. This will definitely have to be considered a rebuilding year for the program as they will not make the Tournament, yet they have an exciting sophomore class that will be joined by a solid recruiting class next year.

The Schaefer Orbiter® System consists of the special steel construction for the channel storage system, a channel vehicle, also known as the shuttle vehicle, and the corresponding docking station. The rack channels, in which the shuttle system is utilized, are equipped with a centering bracket at the front.
The shuttle vehicle and docking station are inserted into the patented centering bracket of the desired rack channel by a forklift. The centering bracket prevents incorrect positioning and material damage while also saving time. This is a major advantage, especially on the upper levels. The stackers then take the storage palette and place it on the Orbiter® which transports into the next possible space in the channel.
Pallet movements in the channel system as per the FILO and FIFO principles. With the first in-last out (FILO) approach, the pallets are only stored and removed from one side of the rack. In contrast, the first in-first out (FIFO) principle enables the stored pellets to also be removed from the opposite side of the rack. The fully automatic reorganization of the channel ensures that the continuous supply complies with the FIFO logic.
While the Schaefer Orbiter® stores the pallets, the stacker can simultaneously pick up the next pallet in order to resupply the system. You benefit from exceptional time savings and the corresponding increase in efficiency.
The system is also suitable for deep-freeze applications and can handle 100 different pallet types as per regional, national and international standards.
You receive a complete system as a one-stop solution.
All standard components such as the control technology, shuttle vehicle, and safety elements are manufactured exclusively by SSI SCHAEFER's own production facilities.
The driving commands to the Schaefer Orbiter® are transferred via remote command. The orbiter itself is exceptionally easy to operate thanks to the logical and clearly understandable image display. The function buttons enable the user to change the radio channel or view the battery status, for example. It is specifically designed to handle the demanding conditions in the warehouse. Once the order has been completed, the shuttle vehicle automatically returns to the docking station.

Harri Tapani Kirvesniemi (born 10 May 1958, in Mikkeli) is a Finnish former cross-country skier who competed from 1980 to 2001. During his career he won six Olympic medals (all bronzes), and also the 50 km event at the Holmenkollen ski festival in 2000. He retired after being caught doping at the 2001 World Championship in Lahti.

Career
His biggest successes though were at the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships, where he earned a total of eight medals. This included one gold (15 km: 1989), three silvers (4 × 10 km relay: 1989, 1995. 1997), and four bronzes (15 km: 1982, 30 km: 1985, 4 × 10 km relay: 1982 (shared with East Germany), 1991).
In 1998, he earned the Holmenkollen medal (shared with Fred Børre Lundberg, Larissa Lazutina, and Alexey Prokurorov). He was married to Marja-Liisa Kirvesniemi, who won the Holmenkollen medal in 1989. This makes them the third husband-wife team to ever win the Holmenkollen medal.

During the 2001 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in Lahti, he tested positive for use of the banned plasma expander Hemohes together with five fellow Finnish cross-country skiers. This resulted in the disqualification of the gold-medal winning Finnish relay team. Following the scandal, Kirvesniemi retired from competitive skiing. In 2013, he received a 6-month suspended sentence after the Helsinki District Court found that he had committed perjury when witnessing to the court in 2011 that he was unaware of any doping use in the 1990s.

Presently Kirvesniemi works as the Plant Manager and Board Member at Yoko Ski.

I told you that wasn't much to think about. That little thing basically sums up all there is to know about the style of Omega Diatribe's latest album, "Abstract Ritual". And while that sounds like a giant mess it actually doesn't sound bad at all as the final product brings a nice and balanced element of intensity that is unique to say in the least. This album only has 6 tracks to it but all of them were unique in their own ways and that is what really made the album for me as not one thing outside of the band's style was repeated in any of the songs which is always a good thing. The guitars and drums had a magnificent flow to them that were only matched by the vocals that had a real intensity to them by being very much like death metal if you refer back to the earlier equation. Even though I believe that there is plenty of room for improvement, Omega Diatribe have made a very solid album that is more than good enough for anyone looking for something that's pretty unique. Because "Abstract Ritual" is unique.

France, Islam and the banlieues: a debate on the place of Islam and class in the suburbs
For France's Institut Montaigne, a team of researchers led by political scientist Gilles Kepel have completed a detailed study of Clichy-sous-Bois and Montfermeil, two towns east of Paris that were pivotal in the 2005 riots. Their findings highlight the growing influence of Islam. Two commentators react …

Michèle Tribalat
In an effort to allay concerns about Islam in France, policymakers and analysts have either tried to play down its importance or sought to blend it into the landscape. Islam is often portrayed as an integral part of French history: its presence simply follows on from ancient history. The basis for this argument is shaky, for it refers to an era when Christendom – not yet referred to as the west – was in retreat, driven back by the force of Islamic arms.
In fact Europe gained the upper hand several centuries ago, and until recently Islam was almost completely absent from western countries. Almost all the Muslims in France are immigrants or the children of immigrants. The rise of Islam is linked to immigration. The same applies to most other countries in western Europe. Analysis of the number of Muslims in France remains ambiguous and oscillates between two extremes, either highlighting their minority status or stressing their importance. But what are the facts?
In 2008 there were some 4 million Muslims in France, representing 6.4% of the population (based on the Trajectories and Origins study published by Ined and the Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies [Insee] in 2008). Common sense suggests that 4 million people are not going to upset our way of life, our relationship with religion and our social advances, some still very recent.
Among young adults, just over one in 10 of the population is a Muslim. In the 18-50 age group in France there is one Muslim for every four Roman Catholics. Focusing attention on the most fervent believers in this age group, those who attach great importance to their faith, Muslims outnumber Catholics by about 150,000. Among those born in France in the 1980s, the ratio is three to one. Islam is gaining ground in France where Christianity has already substantially declined. Succeeding generations of French origin are getting more secular in their outlook. In 2008 about 60% of youths said they had no religious belief.
The pattern among the children of immigrants from north Africa, Sahel and Turkey is the opposite, with religion gaining in importance, particularly among the young: in 2008 only 13% acknowledged that they had no religious belief. In 1992, a third of people aged between 20 and 29 and born of two Algerian-immigrant parents admitted having no faith. In 2008, in the same age group, only 14% of those surveyed had no faith.
Islam is riding on a more favourable population dynamic than Catholicism: a large proportion of young people adopt their parents' religion, few marry outside their religious community; the birthrate is high and immigration will certainly continue. Furthermore, Muslims are highly concentrated in large cities, increasing their visibility and their ability to mobilise: in 2008 more than two-thirds of France's Muslims were living in urban areas with 200,000 residents or more, compared with 40% of members of other religious groups or non-believers. In the Seine-Saint-Denis département, north-east of Paris, Muslims now constitute the largest religious community.
Although there is little chance the French will all convert to Islam, its influence is already visible in religious affairs and in certain districts. France thought it had done with religious matters; Islam has put them back on the agenda. We tend to think that secularism is spreading, like some irresistible historical trend, so we see any contrary movement as an aberration that can only be explained by alienation and despair. We consider the growing influence of Islam as a sickness: to cure it we must treat not its symptoms but the social misery at its root.
This attitude offers three advantages: it sustains an illusion about the nature of the problem, it offers a familiar solution, and it leaves intact our belief in the inexorable progress of secularisation. Strong in this conviction, it seems inconceivable that Islam might change our way of life. The perception of Islam as a victim is narcissistic – we are the cause of the Other's misfortune – and condescending, the Other being deprived of the willpower and capacity to choose. Such an attitude is part of a relativistic era that prevents us from passing judgment on practices we might once have condemned, and that encourages us to open up to outside influences. The same process leads us to disregard moderate Muslims, who are rather too much like ourselves, and prefer those whose only form of moderation is to reject the use of violence in defence of their cause.
Islam is still a minority religion, but it has already changed our freedom of expression, an essential part of democracy. The fear of being catalogued as xenophobic or Islamophobic – despite being one of the favourite weapons of radicals in their fight against freedom of expression, this concept has enjoyed considerable success in the west – has been reinforced by intimidation, especially over school syllabuses. Since the Salman Rushdie affair, the idea of stirring up racial hatred has been turned upside down, and our key concern now seems to be to avoid provoking a violent outburst by the advocates of Islamic norms each time they take offence, as happened over the Danish cartoons.
• Michèle Tribalat is a French demographics expert who specialises on
A spectre haunts policymakers, journalists, sociologists, and experts in thinktanks: "the social question", in its contemporary form of mass vulnerability and increasingly widespread zones of disaffiliation. For the past 30 years France's banlieues – underprivileged housing estates plagued by poverty, and emblematic of the crisis in the working classes – have been in the headlines, high on the political agenda and in invitations to tender addressed to social scientists.
Relocation of whole branches of industry and the transformation of working practices have ruined traditional working trades and brought unemployment, poverty and casual labour to the margins of the working classes, depriving the workforce of its economic value and devaluing more symbolic concepts such as virility, which played a central role in defining traditional working-class male identity. But the lower classes have not disappeared, as some would have us believe: the decline in the number of workers – almost a quarter of the active population – is partly compensated by the spread of manufacturing jobs now classified as services.
The ever more precarious predicament, the determination to guard against unemployment and loss of social status, and the aspiration towards better conditions, all explain the quest for social improvement through higher education, at the same time as the declining appeal of vocational training in favour of more academic studies. Failure at school condemns people to stay working class. Carrying on with education maintains the illusion of possible advancement. But despite their efforts, most students at vocational secondary schools achieve little long-term job security.
How are we to understand the transformation of former red suburbs into sink estates? The massive rehousing programmes of the 1960 and 1970s hardened the divide between semi-skilled workers and immigrant labourers, and their highly skilled counterparts, for whom getting a new home symbolised collective advancement. During the late 1970s, housing policies made it easier for working-class families to buy their own homes, leading to a mass exodus from social housing by better-off households. No longer synonymous with success, the large housing estates lost their appeal.
The place of those who left was soon taken by immigrant families, further accentuating the division between home-owning and housing-estate workers. Towards the end of the 1970s, the downturn in the economy affected the least well qualified workers and the most recent immigrants. For working-class households, staying in low-income housing reflected the precarious nature of their employment. It was also the physical manifestation of their equality with the newcomers.
With no way out of their estates, these workers often became the advocates of stricter law and order, particularly for local youths. When immigrant families first arrived on the estates, it seemed an improvement on their previous temporary housing, but later they came to fear that their sons might stray outside the law.
Public perception of these problem estates is coloured by recurrent social ills: breakdown of law and order, and difficulties with integration. In both cases the problems are explicitly connected to immigration.
In this way the social question, which caused such estates in the first place, has turned into an immigration problem. The efforts of France's far-right National Front (FN) party and the right wing of the governing centre-right UMP party have ensured that the "immigration question" stays near the top of the political agenda. The transformation is all the more successful because there is a real basis for these problems: in the estates there is plenty of scope for delinquency to flourish.
As for the problem of integration and the ongoing controversy about the (republican) French model and its (multicultural) Anglo-Saxon counterpart, it finds much of its justification in the Islamic revival in underprivileged neighbourhoods.
Traditional forms of working-class organisation in the red suburbs east of Paris have been replaced by new forms of collective or religious action, ranging from big brothers to imams. Imported from the black ghettos of the US, hip-hop is now the dominant culture among young people on the estates for at least three reasons: it brings into play forms of language and gesture that are purportedly theirs to own; the rappers have, to varying degrees, succeeded in voicing the woes of underprivileged youth; last, and perhaps most important, having been taken on board by the dominant culture, hip-hop seems to offer the means of achieving symbolic rehabilitation, and maybe even the promise of riches.
Confronted with the discrepancy between the social status to which they aspire and the empty promise of their degrees, with discrimination in the market for jobs and housing, and with everyday xenophobia, a few young Muslim graduates have decided to act.
They reject the image of poor wretches, constantly in trouble with the police, who know neither how to behave properly nor how to control their children. They also reject the idea of "secondhand Arabs" who hold down executive jobs, no longer speak Arabic and have native-French partners. Instead they are reconstructing their identity, a process that gives additional importance to the community, to campaigns to restore the use of Arabic, and of course to religion.
Islam's message may strike a chord with some youths living on underprivileged estates, but the reasons for this are to be found in its symbolic value, its power to transform the stigma associated with being an Arab into a value of choice, synonymous with the pride of being a Muslim.
Importing the multicultural model has transformed a social question into a racial issue, substituting a perception of society with class divisions with a mosaic of ethnically differentiated communities, and in so doing strengthening divisions among the working classes.

Filene Abdol
Religion: Muslim
Name: Filene Abdol
First Appearance: Marvel Graphic Novel #17 (June 1985): "Revenge of the Living Monolith"
Creators: David Michelinie, Christopher Priest (as James Owsley), Marc Silvestri, Geof Isherwood, Mike Witherby, Brad Joyce, Phil Lord, Keith Williams, Tom Morgan, Jerry Acerno
Nation: Egypt
Note: wife of the Living Monolith
Filene Abdol's husband Ahmet Abdol was the villainous "Living Monolith", who led the Cult of the Living Pharaoh. Filene's own daughter Salome was a follower of this religious group, but Filene herself was not. Possibly Filene's husband formed the religious group only AFTER she was killed. But Ahmet Abdol, an archaeologist, had certainly been intensely interested in ancient Egyptian religion and culture for a long time, long before his wife's death. So, although, Filene never belonged to the Cult of the Living Pharaoh, could she have shared her husband's intense interest in ancient Egyptian religion? As far as we know, nothing in the single story she appeared in supports this. There may have been some interest on her part (after all, she married an Egyptologist). But Filene probably did not share her husband's interests enough to classify her as a devotee of ancient Egyptian religion, which is regarded as backward, superstitious paganism by most contemporary Egyptians. "Abdol" is usually a Muslim name, even among people living outside of Egypt, and nearly all Egyptians are Muslim. So it seems most likely (but needs to be confirmed) that Salome was at least nominally Muslim. Her husband (from whom she obtained the "Abdol" surname) probably had at least a nominally Muslim background as well, before he was found by the Egyptian-born villain Apocalypse.

Cochran Defies Pollsters; Lankford, Clawson, Rangel Win
In Governor, House, Senate on June 25, 2014 at 10:22 am
Defying all pollsters' projections, veteran Sen. Thad Cochran rebounded from his under-performance in the June 3 primary election to win the Mississippi run-off campaign. State Sen. Chris McDaniel came within one-half percent of claiming the Republican nomination in the primary vote, but failed to capitalize on his early momentum.
Virtually all published polling projected the 42-year congressional veteran to be falling significantly behind his Tea Party-backed Republican challenger. Yet, the actual results gave the incumbent a 51-49 percent victory, a margin of 6,373 votes out of the 372,000-plus ballots cast, some 60,000 more than were recorded in the primary. Therefore, the secondary election campaign defied not only the pollsters who almost unanimously predicted a McDaniel win going away, but also voter history that virtually always sees an incumbent lose a run-off election when forced into one. Additionally, this run-off produced more Continue reading >

Decision Day in Six States
In Governor, House, Senate on June 24, 2014 at 12:03 pm
Voters will be casting ballots in six states, and the Mississippi Republican run-off contest between Sen. Thad Cochran and state Sen. Chris McDaniel gains top national billing. Most polling suggests that McDaniel, who placed first in the primary with 49.4 percent of the vote, is favored to capture the party nod. His victory would unseat a veteran Republican senator who was first elected to Congress in 1972.
Another US House special election will be decided today as GOP businessman Curt Clawson is poised to win Florida's 19th Congressional District, left vacant by freshman Rep. Trey Radel's (R) resignation. Clawson, armed with $2 million of personal money and strong backing from various Tea Party groups, easily won the Republican nomination on April 22. The former Purdue University basketball player will cruise to victory against Democrat April Freeman in the safely Republican seat anchored in the Ft. Myers/Cape Coral area. He will be sworn into office later this week, and then immediately begin running for a full term. Continue reading >

A Tale of Two Governor's Races
In Governor on April 15, 2013 at 10:25 am
Rep. Charles. A. "Dutch" Ruppersberger (D) Gov. Chris Christie (R)
Late last week, Rep. Charles. A. "Dutch" Ruppersberger (D-MD-2) confirmed that he is considering a race for governor next year. Incumbent Martin O'Malley (D) is term-limited, and the open race already is attracting a great deal of attention, particularly from Democrats. Virtually all of the strong candidates hail from the Washington, DC suburbs, while Ruppersberger would, at this point, be the only contender from the Baltimore metropolitan area. The geographic split would give him a clear advantage if the DC-area vote becomes split.
Ruppersberger won election to his sixth US House term last November. He represents the largest portion of Baltimore County of any Maryland congressman, in addition to having more than 83,000 residents from Baltimore city. His district also covers significant portions of Anne Arundel and Hartford Counties, with a sliver of Howard County.
The congressman defeated state Sen. Nancy Jacobs (R) 65.6-31.1 percent in November, but the Republican spent less than $300,000 on her challenge.
Other Democratic likely candidates are Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown, who already has scheduled his formal announcement for early May, Attorney General Doug Gansler, state Del. Heather Mizeur and Howard County Executive Ken Ulman. The Democratic primary will almost assuredly Continue reading >

The State Role in Early Warning Data Systems
States can play a critical role in advancing the development and use of early warning systems (EWS). This webinar was hosted by the Regional Educational Laboratory (REL) Midwest and its Dropout Prevention Research Alliance to discuss state-level support of EWS.
In the video, AIR expert Susan Therriault discussed her research on early warning systems and how she had helped conduct research and support states developing their own EWS. Other presenters included Jared Knowles of the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, John Gimpl of the Minnesota Department of Education, and Timothy Conboy of Rosemont High School of Minnesota.

What would you do if your child needed an organ transplant? It's safe to say the most, if not all, parents would do everything in their power to help their child get healthy again. While donating organs is not uncommon, it can be hard to find a donor with the matching blood type to make the transfer.
Kristi Goll is a mom who was desperate to do anything she could to help her son. Jackson, her 8-year-old son was in need of a living kidney donor. Knowing that she had to exhaust every resource she could think of, Kristi hopped on Facebook with a plea for help.
After a devastating doctor's appointment showed that Jackson's liver was not improving, she reached out to the world of social media to see if there was a living donor available for her son.
"The doctors still explained the very best situation would be finding a living donor for Jackson. I always knew these days would come, it's just so hard when they are here. I have reached out before, I am just trying again to see if we can find anyone out there that would be interested in being tested." she wrote. "Social media has the ability to go a long ways, and Jackson's transplant social worker reassured me of this."
Thankfully, Jackson's social worker was right. After nearly 1,500 Facebook shares, Jackson's heartbreaking story caught the attention of Lindsey Bittorf. Lindsey, who is a police officer, mother, and surprisingly enough, the same blood type as Jackson, wanted to help.
After contacting the University of Wisconsin Transplant Program, Lindsey was determined to be the perfect match for Jackson. Lindsey called the entire incident "fate".
Even though Lindsey didn't know Jackson or his family, she was more than happy to donate her kidney to the young boy. As it turned out, though, the police officer and Jackson's mom had mutual friends, so they were able to get connected easily. After finding out that she would be able to donate her kidney, Lindsey surprised the family at their home with the good news.
The moment meant everything to both Kristi and Jackson, and she shared the incredible news on her Facebook page, complete with some tear-jerking photos.
"After months of searching for a kidney donor for Jackson... I can say "the search is over!!" I can't even put into words how amazing of a gift we are receiving from this amazing person." Krist wrote. "She surprised us after work today and I still feel in shock. Jackson is so excited and says "I think my new kidney will make me run faster!" Today you became our hero".
What do you think of this story and Lindsey's act of selflessness?

Mustafa Nayem is ready to promulgate his "lists of topics"
The journalist threatens to reveal the names of those who ordered a leak of various editions of the Constitution by Udar and Batkivshchyna to the press.
Nayem reported about such intentions today at night on his web page in Facebook.
"Headquarters of Batkivshchyna and Udar launched a campaign, declaring that their variants of the Constitution appeared in the mass media by order of the Party of Regions and fully fit into the lists of topics of the Administration of the President," Mustafa Nayem writes.
"I never revealed and will not disclose my sources. I will only specify: both variants of the Constitution from both groups were given to me by people's deputies of Batkivshchyna and Udar. Moreover, both people's deputies, sending me documents, claimed that it was done in accordance with the direction of the parties," he continues.
"If this campaign continues, I will reveal the names of those, who, according to my sources, gave such instructions, and I will promulgate the names of the staff of headquarters, who sent the text of the Constitution to the representatives of the administration of the President," the journalist summarized.
People started to discuss the differences in the texts of the law by Udar and Batkivshchyna after they were published by Nayem in the periodical Ukrainska Pravda.

It is important to have a Crofts service plan to ensure that you have coverage whenever the boiler breaks down. You surely don't want to spend more money on replacements. Heat and hot water are really important especially during the cold season. However, if you have an annual service plan, you only pay monthly for annual servicing, repairs and replacement in times of emergencies. Here's four things to consider when buying a boiler service plan.
A boiler is expected to run about 15 years of service. The model and make, frequency of usage, and level of maintenance will be the key on how long the boiler will work properly. If you have regular maintenance, you have the boiler working appropriately for a longer time. So, choose Crofts to handle the maintenance and repairs of your boiler.
The boiler service provider Crofts is manned with competent technicians and staff that can handle all your boiler needs from equipment to services. You'll certainly trust their services as they aim to build long-term relationships with their clients. If you check them online, they can readily send service technicians that are nearby your location. They can also send you the right people to do the work on your device.
Every boiler service provider differs in terms of rates and features of their services. If you choose a low-priced agreement, they may save you money from the start, but a higher quality, which is more expensive can save you money over time. You need to compare the skills, experiencesand safety records with the price of the service. A provider with more expertise and experience will likely cost more. Also, depending on your cover, you can pay higher in terms of monthly fees.
You need to find reliable and reputable service providers. If you choose Crofts, you may have a neighbour or friend recommending their services. The name is a leading provider of broiler products, installation and repairs. You can easily find them on the Internet. You can also check if they can provide references and some positive reviews of the company, which will make you choose them as your provider.

This study is the first to evaluate the existence and quality of patient-related cancer rehabilitation content on the websites of National Cancer Institute (NCI)-Designated Cancer Centers. In 2016, a team of cancer rehabilitation physicians (physiatrists) conducted an analysis of the patient-related rehabilitation content on the websites of all NCI-Designated Cancer Centers that provide clinical care (N = 62 of 69). The main outcome measures included qualitative rating of the ease of locating descriptions of cancer rehabilitation services on each website, followed by quantitative rating of the quality of the cancer rehabilitation descriptions found. More than 90% of NCI-Designated Cancer Centers providing clinical care did not have an easily identifiable patient-focused description of or link to cancer rehabilitation services on their website. Use of a website's search box and predetermined terms yielded an additional 13 descriptions (21%). Therefore, designers of nearly 70% of the websites evaluated overlooked an opportunity to present a description of cancer rehabilitation services. Moreover, only 8% of the websites included accurate and detailed information that referenced four core rehabilitation services (physiatry and physical, occupational and speech therapy). Further research is needed to confirm the presence of cancer rehabilitation services and evaluate access to these types of services at NCI-Designated Cancer Centers providing clinical care.
