Лазерная коагуляция плацентарных анастомозов — хирургический метод лечения синдрома фето-фетальной трансфузии, при котором наблюдается нарушение кровотока между двумя однояйцевыми близнецами в период внутриутробного развития
.
На сегодняшний день является единственным доказанным эффективным способом лечения СФФТ в случае проведения на сроках 15 — 25 недель беременности
.

Суть методики
Методика заключается в фетоскопическом (через тончайшую оптическую систему) введении лазерного проводника сквозь переднюю брюшную стенку матери в полость матки под контролем УЗИ. Поверхностные анастомозы на плаценте, по которым кровь перетекает от одного плода другому — коагулируется лазерным лучом мощностью 35 — 60 Вт под контролем зрения (на мониторе). Данная процедура не вызывает нарушения кровотока плодов, поскольку крупные плацентарные и пуповинные сосуды не затрагиваются.

Эффективность методики
После лазерной коагуляции хотя бы один ребёнок выживает до 95 %, двое — до 85 % наблюдений в засисимости от опыта хирурга, для сравнения — при лечении с помощью амниодренажа — не более в 60 %. Серьёзные неврологические отклонения у детей после амниодренажа встречаются в 30-40 % наблюдений, после лазерной коагуляции — не более 2 %.

Лазерная коагуляция в Европе
В Европе лечением фето-фетального трансфузионного синдрома занимается Клиника и Поликлиника Родовспоможения и Репродуктивной Медицины Университета Галле-Виттенберг имени Мартина Лютера в городе Галле,Universitätsklinik und Poliklinik für Geburtshilfe und Reproduktionsmedizin Halle (Saale), Germany, возглавляемая профессором Чириковым М.Н, а также клиника профессора Яна Депреста. В РФ фетоскопия выполняется в Москве в Перинатальном центре 24 ГКБ, ПЦ в Балашихе, группой компаний «Мать и дитя», в Екатеринбурге в Центре ОЗМиМ.

Let's face it, no matter how well kids intend to look after their timepieces, they will succumb to the general wear and tear of the playground and the park at some point. So kids' watches have to be able to cope with a knock or two, but what about water resistance?
From jumping in puddles after a heavy downpour, to a full-blown dive bomb into a swimming pool, kids will need a watch that can withstand a splash or two. There are two main choices when it comes to water resistancy: splashproof and swimproof. We can help you to determine which is best for you.
Watches with this level of resistance to water can handle an average bit of English rain, as well as hand washing. So if it's just day to day wear that the watch will endure, then a splashproof timepiece is more than enough. Just make sure the kids don't accidentally go swimming with it on, and you'll be fine.
Kids need to have a splashproof watch from an early age, and this model from Moshi Monsters fits the bill nicely. Its rubber strap and plastic casing means that it wipes clean easily (water or anything else!), whilst the funky numbers and popular characters will keep a smile on the wearer's face all day.
There's a beautiful simplicity to this children's watch from Timex. With almost all the colours of the rainbow represented on the face, coupled with the pink and purple colour scheme on the bezel and strap, this is a splashproof watch that will undoubtedly look great both indoors and out in the elements.
For the aspiring outdoors type, a splashproof watch is pretty much essential to the muddy fields of pastimes such as orienteering. With a murky green and black colour scheme, and containing even a compass, this Cannibal timepiece fastens with a soft and sturdy fabric strap - so it's comfortable to wear on your wrist when cross-country running or climbing up trees!
The colour scheme of this Lifemax timepiece is as bold as they come - the shiny stainless steel bezel encases a watch face which is a beautiful blue, coupled with striking yellow and black numbers. The strap is rubber, which means any water that does get on the watch won't be absorbed, so it's fully prepared to go up against your average downpour.
Splashproof models are also available for kids of young ages, and let's be honest, they're probably the most prone to accidentally falling in a puddle, for example. This Tikkers model is ideal for any footy-mad kid, and can cope with all the knocks and splashes that go hand in hand with contact sports and general tomfoolery.
Watches that have swimproof levels of water resistancy can withstand a full dunking in the bath, the sea, or swimming pools; however, a diver's watch is required to really get down to the depths. With kids who go for a casual bit of breaststroke or a paddle in the sea on holiday, a swimproof watch should serve them perfectly well.
This Sekonda model features a classy colour scheme that mimics the older, adult styles. For this reason, it's a popular choice with the older kids, who are steering away from the younger, more vibrant colours. As it's swimproof, it can cope with a few casual swimming lessons on a weekend - no need to leave this piece in the lockers.
Showing that children's watch designs can be as funky as adult styles, this model from Limit is just about as cool as they come. With a stark contrast between pink and white, the swimproof quality is a bonus to its striking appearance. Like the Lorus model, it also benefits from a handy wipe-clean rubber strap.
As a top of the range model, you'd expect this Scuderia Ferrari model to be able to handle a bit of water - much like the Formula 1 cars. Aside from its water resistance capabilities, the sleek black design with a touch of yellow and traditional Ferrari red is as sporty and classy as can be.
If bright, bold colours are the order of the day, then look no further than this Ice-Watch model. Its sturdy case houses a brightly coloured watch face - a real statement piece that's sure to be the envy of the classroom. It also has a rubber strap, ensuring that it is resilient enough for everyday usage.
This Lorus swimproof children's watch comes in a gorgeous two-tone blue colour scheme, with a white face and a silver casing. Aside from it being swimproof, it's largely made of plastic and rubber, meaning that any water that does go onto the watch is easily wiped clean, and it will stay looking as sleek and professional as ever.
Deciding between a splashproof and a swimproof watch is largely dictated by what the wearer will get up to, once it's on their wrist. If the biggest load of water a watch will face is the size of an average raindrop, then splashproof will fit the bill. However, if we're talking about an aspiring swimmer here or likewise, then only swimproof will do.

Home Health Please Scream Inside Your Heart: The Adult Tantrum
Please Scream Inside Your Heart: The Adult Tantrum
Photo by Lieselotte De Bie on Unsplash
I don't remember how it felt to kick and scream as a kid. I don't remember how it felt to wail, to want something so unreasonably badly that the gut-yearning made my fists clench into white and, in protest, caused my hair to swirl all over the floor. I remember hearing about tantrums. My parents love to tell the story of my horse toy aisle Target blunder. I lost my goddamn Cheerios when I couldn't bring home the horse stable and trailer. My parents love to brag that they left the store with all our items in the cart because of it; how much it blew my mind that my screaming wouldn't get me anywhere. I was in for a journey of riding mysterious feelings through and through.
Tantrums, the most organic of their kind, are most common in children ages 1-3, when kids are developing their social and emotional skills. Kids don't have words to express their emotions and test the waters of their boundaries, throwing themselves on the ground to see how their parents react to their confusion. Which makes total sense. Imagine being a child again, feeling big feelings everywhere, and on top of that being viciously hungry, and unable to express any of it.
Interestingly enough, as we get older, we completely void the possibility of tantrums. Since we have the words to express ourselves, we're able to self-regulate our emotions. We know how to cope. We won't snot-cry in a meeting because someone spoke over us or wasn't listening to our big idea. We can, ideally, cope with what shakes us. Potent emotions—worry, fear, shame, anger—are less overwhelming. We know them. It would be ridiculous for an adult to have a tantrum. Right?
We are, still, capable of a tantrum. Its emotional current takes form just like it did when we were children. But now, we pack our emotional flare-ups in tiny boxes. We seize them like a hot fire, pouring water on the coals.
The thing is, I don't think so. We're not allowed to have tantrums that look like explosions of sudden anger. Adults don't arch their back, flail their limbs, stiffen their legs, wind and kick their ankles and scream, "I HATE MY JOB!!" in the middle of an earnings meeting. However, adult outbursts take a new form. And I deeply believe they're still tantrums. We, like children, can no longer find the words to properly express ourselves. We don't know how to manage every single feeling we're dealt. We struggle to change the world around us, especially now. At a tantrum's root, these are the barriers that water their cells.
We are, still, capable of a tantrum. Its emotional current takes form just like it did when we were children. But now, we pack our emotional flare-ups in tiny boxes. We seize them like a hot fire, pouring water on the coals. An adult tantrum? How embarrassing! We would never! In turn, these mood-huffs are the before-the-storm, earth-shatteringly quiet tremor in our gut. They are uncoiled, private outbursts of frustration. So, why aren't we talking more about how they feel as adults?
My adult tantrums come in many forms. What scares me the most is that they're not explosive like they were when I was little. They're so quiet, they get lost. They're foggy and distracting. I can't read a book because my silent blowups don't let me focus. So sometimes, a tantrum will put me on TikTok or Instagram for over forty minutes. And I'll sit listlessly in my own wake of jealousy, comparison, and wanting.
Another super jazzy thing I do is, whenever faced with a rejection letter or adversity in my writing, my brain tells me: "You don't care. You don't want to be a writer anyway." I push my problems aside, instantly allowing myself to ignore caring for them. I know how to tolerate disappointment, but lately, the world has brought me to a place where I'm tired of tolerating hardship. And any wild pitch throws me into a tornado of ignorance.
My tantrums also convince me that I'm not valuable at work; that I might be fired at any instant because actively consoling myself the past year has become deeply difficult. I buy stupid things on the Internet, drink too much on a Wednesday, and ignore text messages (Writer's Note: Don't even get me started on group texts). It feels a lot like a lazy form of protest. Because I'm miserable, I bury myself in that misery. I'll act self-deprecating and cover myself entirely in the blanket of pain I'm feeling. I had a bad day! I DESERVE this wine and Doritos, assholes. Guys! I'm eating junk food and watching rubbish. You better come out and stop me!
They are the direct indication that we could need help coping. Like our parents did for us when we were three, we need to do it for ourselves.
With social media, tantrums have become the self-deprecating butt of the joke. In fact, tantrums make the best memes. We laugh at each other for surrounding ourselves in the sad ways we wallow. Before I walked into Whole Foods in sweatpants, hair billowed on top of my head like a horn, I debated taking a video of myself and posting on Instagram with a stupid caption like: I'm trying. Which, in its entirety, is deeply sad. Our tantrums have become feverishly public desires, whether it's a call for help or an arm reaching out.
My tantrums are so covered by my own embarrassment for them, they are tough to admit or describe. I think it's because they feel so minor in themselves, and it's hard for me to admit that I'm sad or can't diagnose my feelings with anything but mindless, blind frustration. I hate getting dressed, for example. I can barely imagine putting on normal pants and instead of stomping my feet and screaming about it, I'll go ten days straight wearing sweatpants and eating nothing but bagels and pizza. I go to the post office and grocery store wearing pajamas and barn boots once a week. I realize this may be the fog of low-grade depression, but adult tantrums can shape themselves that way. They are the direct indication that we could need help coping. Like our parents did for us when we were three, we need to do it for ourselves.
We've had a year. We're not perfect. We've endured an entire cycle of an election, amidst a pandemic. We've lost the energy to cope with things and our inner voice has dimmed. And yet, we're flooded with self-care tips and boisterous Twitter reminders to drink water. We're pressured to get enough exercise and stay away from our phones. And that, partially, is where these tantrums begin. What if we don't want to do all these things? What if we just want to be standing in the produce aisle wearing big sweatpants, considering spending $15 on a wheel of cheese?
Well eventually, just like our parents told us, our tantrum will burn itself out. And we'll be (hopefully) willing to come out of it and take care of ourselves again. I've already committed to a dry February and leaving my phone in another room instead of my bedside, so I can wake up more naturally and stop doomscrolling first thing in the morning. However, it's inevitable that the world will send me into a tantrum frenzy again. Threats on our democracy, impeachment, and depressing news on climate change will show up at my front door despite a non-invite. And I'll be placed back into my own devices and pushed to ride the storm out.
Tantrums deserve respect because they're showing us when we're overwhelmed and don't know how to express our feelings. Take your time with them. Let them see their way through you.
The adult tantrum will dissipate with time. And while we're riding its wave, it deserves our attention. Whether or not we want to hide under a blanket, eventually, we'll try to physically change our state of mind, squeeze the tantrum out by expelling its energy—with jumping jacks or yelling into a field. Tantrums deserve respect because they're showing us when we're overwhelmed and don't know how to express our feelings. Take your time with them. Let them see their way through you. We'll figure out our feelings with time.
Lastly, if you're in the middle of having one, and I can't stress this enough, leave Target.

A staple of the Paleo diet, bone broth benefits are aplenty.
All bone broths are staples in the traditional diets of every culture and the basis of all fine cuisine, and now a staple in the Paleo diet. Bone broths are nutrient-dense, easy to digest, rich in flavour and they boost healing.
Bone broth or stock was a way our ancestors made use of every part of an animal. Bones and marrow, skin and feet, tendons and ligaments that you can't eat directly can be boiled and then simmered over a period of days. This simmering causes the bones and ligaments to release healing compounds like collagen,glycine and glutamine that have the power to transform your health. They contain minerals in forms that your body can easily absorb: calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, silicon, sulphur and others.
In addition to all the health benefits, the stock or broth made from our venison bones is super tasty and a great base for soups and sauces.
Great value. Remember to pop a kilo in your basket when shopping for your other goodies !
'Who needs those processed stock cubes from the supermarket when you can make your own?
From 1kg wild venison bones we've made a super concentrated stock.
Strain, cool and pour in an ice tray. Freeze and use as you please in broths, stews or sauces'.
Wild Venison has a fine texture and is full of flavour.
For steaks, oil the meat rather than the pan. Just brush a little oil on either side and make sure your pan is very hot. Season the pan then flash fry your oiled meat.
If you prefer your meat less pink leave it to rest for 5 to 10 minutes once you have flash fried. Never overcook the meat.

Nesting made easy; Why Milton have it sussed for Mum's to be!
There are so many things to think about as a new Mum and every time you think you've got it sussed and got everything ready for the arrival of your baby someone else pipes up with something you haven't thought of. Honestly, the amount of times in the last month alone that I've sat and thought about how bad a Mum I'm going to be just because I haven't thought of buying a baby thermometer or I haven't bought any sleeping bags for her is just ridiculous (FYI I now have both). I think when it comes to having a baby for the first time you really do go in blind; no matter how many people tell you what to get, what not to get and try and force advice upon you, you really just don't know what you're going to need and what you're going to be like as parents until it actually happens. This whole time I've thought I'm as prepared as I can be for our little girl making her appearance and until she's here and crying through the night and needing her nappy changed, I don't think I'll ever actually be ready.
One thing I definitely didn't think of when it came to preparing myself for our baby was sterilising. Like, what the hell is sterilising when it comes to a baby?! Naïve little Beky over here literally didn't have a clue. I think it was actually through Mrs Meldrum or Kate Murnane that I first realised sterilising ready for your baby was a thing. Obviously (kind of) I knew that when it came to having a baby everything had to be cleaned thoroughly and clothes had to be washed on a certain, more gentle setting with detergent that wasn't going to aggravate her skin, but as far as actual sterilising was concerned for bottles and breast pumps and surfaces baby would be touching, I didn't know the first thing.
Milton has been a leading name in baby sterilising equipment at home for around 70 years now and as I've been well and truly settling into my 'nesting' period (the period where us new mamas just want to frantically clean and prepare everything), they're the brand I've turned to for all of my baby preparing needs. Trusted by Mums, Milton have got everything covered when it comes to hygiene for our little ones and ensuring that surfaces and feeding equipment are sterilised ready for use. When I first did a bit of research on how and what to sterilise I was quite amazed by how easy Milton have made it for us; something that sounds so daunting when you first hear about it and is so important to your baby's health and immune system is definitely not as complicated as it seems at all. Obviously I haven't had much experience with sterilising with a baby just yet as my baby girl still has a couple more weeks of cooking to do, but just by reading the Milton website and watching their step-by-step videos on how to properly sterilise your baby's bottles and toys I already feel like I'm an expert and will be ready to go when it comes to sterilising everything for it's first use.
One set of products I have been using religiously as I get bubba's room ready though have been from the Milton hygiene range. Their 3-in-1 Anti-bacterial Surface Spray and Anti-bacterial Surface Wipes have been all I've been using to ensure everything in her room is baby ready before the big day. As part of the Milton family, the 3-in-1 Antibacterial Surface Spray still cleans, disinfects and freshens the surfaces it comes into contact with but without being full of the harsh chemicals that other cleaning sprays are. With it containing no bleach or alcohol, I feel really safe using this and have been using it on every surface available in her room and will be using it on every other surface I can think of when she finally arrives. I love how easy it is to just spray on and wipe over with a damp cloth and can definitely see this becoming a staple in our household for everyday cleaning when baby is here. Items like her bath support, high chair (when she's old enough) and changing table can easily be cleaned with this with no extra fuss and I know it'll leave everything safe for her to use straight away.
The other product I've been loving lately and can honestly see me carrying around with me everywhere are the Antibacterial Surface Wipes from Milton. An easy compact pack of antibacterial wipes perfect for keeping everywhere for a quick clean up solution. Again these are bleach and alcohol free, so perfectly safe for baby and just like the surface spray, these kill up to 99.9% of germs. Easy and mess free with no need for water and a cloth, these wipes are going to be perfect for having in my changing bag to clean up any messes, for a quick clean of any toys or dummy's or wiping over changing surfaces when we're on the go. I don't know about you, but the idea of changing my baby's bare bum on one of those communal changing tables in public toilets has my skin crawling and so a pack of these Milton Antibacterial wipes are definitely going to be a must for carrying around with me. These are also going to be great for at home, having a pack next to our changing table will be a must and especially in the kitchen for a quick clean of the high chair before meals; they're already so handy and I can see us buying pack after pack of these when bubba is here!
Milton really do seem to have it sussed when it comes to cleaning and sterilising and as the day of our little girl arriving comes closer and closer (just under 4 weeks now) I'm finding myself reading more and more on the different methods and how-to's for preparing everything for her. Milton products will 100% be replacing the usual surface wipes and sprays we use in our house to make sure we're baby safe and not using chemicals that are too harsh for her skin. I can't wait to get my hands on some of the sterilising products and getting all of her bottles etc ready for use over the next few weeks before she arrives!
What are your baby sterilising tips and tricks? I'd love to get as much advice as I can in the comments from some of you mamas out there!
This is not a paid for advertorial however I was kindly gifted the products to review.

HCM City (VNA) – The High-Level People's Court in Ho Chi Minh City on March 18 upheld imprisonment penalties given to five defendants for "attempting to overthrow the people's administration".
The defendants include Luu Van Vinh (born in 1967, residing in Binh Tan district of HCM City), Nguyen Quoc Hoan (born in 1977, residing in district 10 of HCM City), Nguyen Van Duc Do (born in 1975, residing in Tan Phu district of HCM City), Phan Trung (born in 1976, residing in Duc Trong district of Lam Dong province), and Tu Cong Nghia (born in 1993, residing in Ninh Thuan province).
According to the verdict of the first-instance trial on October 5, 2018, they established a reactionary organisation named "Lien minh dan toc Viet Nam" (Vietnam National Self-Determination Coalition) with Vinh as its President. They defamed and distorted guidelines and policies of the Party and the State, aiming to abolish the leadership role of the Communist Party of Vietnam and overthrow the State of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.
As the mastermind, Vinh set forth the objectives and orientations for operations of the group and lured people into this organisation.
Do, who was Vice President, worked actively to develop the organisation. Meanwhile, Hoan and Trung served as advisors to Vinh in the group's establishment. Nghia was in charge of "military affairs" and recruiting people into the group.
They carried out various communications activities to incite the public, coordinated with dissidents, and participated in illegal demonstrations.
On October 30, 2016, they held a preparatory meeting and agreed to announce the debut of the organisation at a church in Tan Binh district of HCM City on November 6, 2016.
However, Vinh and Hoan were arrested by local police on November 6, 2016.
At the first-instance trial, the HCM City People's Court gave prison sentences of 15 years to Vinh, 13 years to Hoan, 11 years to Do, 10 years to Nghia, and 8 years to Trung. They would be also kept under surveillance after completing their jail sentences.


Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland said last week she was"very concerned" about possible Russian meddling and that there"have probably already been efforts by malign foreign actors to disrupt our democracy."
Earlier on Monday, the Communications Security Establishment(CSE), the agency responsible for foreign signals intelligence and protecting government electronic information and communication networks, issued a report on the potential hazards around October's election. The report did not refer to any specific threat from Russia.

Indian gharial
Ganges River
Protecting Wildlife
Up to 100 years
India, Nepal, Bangladesh
Regionally extinct in Myanmar and Pakistan
The Indian gharials
Endangered crocodilian
The Indian gharial is related to crocodiles and alligators. A critically endangered species, it used to occur in the rivers of Pakistan and Myanmar. Today, it is estimated that fewer than 200 Indian gharials are left in the wild, mostly in India, and a small number in Nepal and Bangladesh.
The gharial's ghara
The gharial gets its name from its 'ghara', which means `pot' in Hindi. This is a bulbous growth on the tip of the male's snout with a cartilaginous lid on the nostrils that flaps during exhalation. The ghara amplifies the male's hissing calls to attract females, making them audible from almost a kilometre away. Unfortunately, few mature males are now observed in the wild. Though gharials nest annually, some females in India were found to be nesting much less frequently.
Gharial guardians
Females lay their eggs in nests dug into sandy riverbanks. Though they remain in the water in the day, they visit and guard the eggs at night, throughout the incubation period of 60-80 days. They get very territorial near the nest, but will tolerate other females nesting nearby. The mother, sometimes the father as well, may help uncover the nest during hatching. Due to their unique snout and teeth, they may not be able to help their babies hatch or pick them up.
Care of the young
Mothers will protect hatchlings for several weeks or months. During this time, the hatchlings hang around in groups near their mother. The presence of the father may be tolerated, but he will not actively protect hatchlings. The young may sometimes rest on his back. Often, the rising waters of the monsoon prompt the separation of mother and young. The juveniles are washed downriver, away from their mother's protection. Sadly, many young gharials do not survive this.
Banking on the sand
Large-scale sand mining for construction degrade the sand banks on which the gharials nest. Dams and irrigation diversions have resulted in perennial rivers drying up. Unlike other crocodilians, the gharial can't walk overland to find other water sources. During the dry months, when gharials breed, riparian people, among the poorest in India, plant crops and herd livestock along the river, competing with the gharials for precious riverine real estate.
Shant
Born in 1991 at a zoo in Chennai, India
Resident male at the River Safari Ganges River exhibit and brother of Krur, Selvi and Ravi at Singapore Zoo.
Our gharials are fed fish like herring and saury. Shant's favourite is mackerel, which he snaps up swiftly with a sideways swipe of his long, narrow jaws.
Shant is very responsive to his keeper and appears to recognise his name when called. But what does Shant truly hear when his keeper calls his name?
Together, we protect wildlife
Dramatic decline
In the span of 60 years, their population has plummeted 98%. Since the 1970s, much money and effort have been spent on the reintroduction of gharials, with scant success.
Besides the gharial, other freshwater species like the Ganges river dolphin, mugger crocodile, and mahseer are also on the decline.
The IUCN Status
At extremely high risk of extinction in the wild
The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species is widely recognized as the most comprehensive, objective global approach for evaluating the conservation status of plant and animal species.
Data Deficient
Unknown risk of extinction
At relatively low risk of extinction
Near Threatened
Likely to become vulnerable in the near future

Russia Should Create Private Zones for LGBT
By Sergei Markov
By restricting the rights of its lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community, Russia defines itself as a conservative European society.
The French parliament passed legislation last month expanding the rights of LGBT citizens, while Russia's State Duma is trying to move the opposite way by advancing its bill limiting LGBT propaganda. This alone reveals a stark and growing divide between Russian and European values. This issue has brought two basic dilemmas to the fore: the relationship between the minority and the majority and the relationship between traditional and postmodern values.
It is no coincidence that the LGBT question has arisen at the same time as the Pussy Riot case and the issue of foreign funding of nongovernmental organizations. Russia is rapidly establishing its own identity with regard to a number of key issues, primarily measuring itself against Europe — a yardstick it has used for centuries.
Russia defines its political system not as a liberal democracy with an emphasis on the rights of minorities but as a democracy that respects the rights and wishes of its majority. That emphasis on the majority is not a personal whim of President Vladimir Putin. It is society's reaction to the social disaster of the 1990s, caused in part by the uncontrolled and egoistic actions of a small minority. That is why society expects the government to defend the interests of the majority and to protect it as much as possible from an aggressive minority.
Meanwhile, France and most other EU countries continue to expand the rights of minorities, paying little attention to protests by the majority in the belief that the majority will itself gradually break down into a number of separate minorities. But Russians believe that any erosion of the majority will lead to instability, which society fears most of all after the traumatic and highly unstable 1990s. Even a hint of movement in that direction elicits a strong negative reaction.
What's more, Russia defines itself as standing somewhere between traditional and postmodern values. The EU is a purely postmodern society, rejecting tradition and building new social institutions. It is also a post-Christian society that not only has no interest in defending traditional values but also actively undermines them in favor of an alternative framework, albeit vaguely defined. Russia, however, has just emerged from the communist period and its failed attempt to build a utopian society. It is rediscovering Russian Orthodox principles along with other traditional spiritual values that will bolster society and protect it against the turbulent present and uncertain future. Therefore, religion will definitely play an increasingly important role in Russia's public life.
The idea that Russia is somehow more backward than the West is a typical error based on the linear understanding of progress that dominated in the 19th and 20th centuries. In fact, that notion also served as the basis for the initial, fairly primitive concepts of modernization and democratization in the West. According to this concept of linear progress, all countries are on the same path, and Russia is several decades behind Europe and the U.S. Russia's legislation on LGBT propaganda only reinforce that gap. But modern humanitarian science sees society as multifaceted and allows for different approaches to a single problem. Only time will tell which solution to the issue of minority and majority rights is more effective and humane: Russia's or the West's.
As a member of Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, I have encountered many European lawmakers who have critical views of LGBT but are afraid of voicing those views in public. Fear of speaking your mind hardly fits the definition of freedom. The EU has essentially forbidden public discussion on the issue of whether LGBT is an illness or not. Why should this discussion be outright forbidden? This is a typical example of an aggressive minority squashing freedom of speech.
With its bill prohibiting homosexual propaganda, Russia is trying to establish its own model for relations between the traditional majority and the LGBT minority. The majority's position is clear: LGBT lifestyles are immoral and sinful, and while individuals have the right to live as they please, they have no right to promote such behavior among others who find it alien and offensive. Obviously, public rallies and attempts to create a positive image of LGBT lifestyles on television would be considered propaganda and would be banned.
In this way, Russia is effectively pioneering a new concept: the "zoning of public space." LGBT minorities are free to pursue their chosen lifestyles and values, but only within private zones.
At the same time, however, the government is obligated to protect the LGBT's rights as long as they obey society's laws. In particular, the state must protect the LGBT community from militant homophobes who could interpret the new law as sanctioning vigilante violence against LGBT adherents and their supporters. In the end, legislation to prevent the LGBT community from promoting and propagandizing its lifestyle outside its allotted zone will actually help protect LGBT followers from violent attacks from the majority.
Another issue that must be addressed is a permissible form of narrowly defined legal union for LGBT couples. They need this to resolve property-based issues, including the distribution of property when one partner dies or leaves the union. Of course, the traditional values of the Russian majority cannot grant such couples the full status of legal marriage and the right to raise children. The state and society must reserve that classification for relationships leading to natural childbirth and the healthy rearing of children by a heterosexual couple. But that is no reason to deny LGBT couples the right to own property and distribute and allocate that property in the event of separation or death.

PHANGS Interview & Live Recap in Boston at The Middle East Upstairs 10.20.21
If the feeling of nostalgia had an album, it would be Phangs' music. From Nashville, Tennessee, the dream-pop, indie-punk artist also known as Jake Germany, came out to Boston to give us an electric show of all of his greatest hits. The artist has always been known for exuding an aura of cool. The best part about his music is that you always feel like you're endlessly young, no matter what age you're at. It's the music that makes you feel like you're in The Breakfast Club throwing your fist in the air, Ferris Bueller's Day Off playing hookie from school, or 10 Things I Hate About You blasting music to your high school crush during his/her practice. The magic of his music is the time capsule it creates transporting you to the past with synths and the guitar solos and up-tempo beats that both intoxicating and energizing.
In the past, Jake has been a touring keyboardist and backing vocalist for the American rock band Relient K since 2017. What a dream! The artist has since released 2 albums, an EP, and countless singles on his own and in collaboration with others.
The Boston show was everything I needed to get back into the swing of concerts. It was wholesome, it was exciting, and it was all good vibes. He jumped around the stage with his amazing blue, polka dot guitar, and it truly felt like we were all in our rooms jamming out together. The sporadic, colorful lights made the intimate space come alive as we all shook our heads and bounced our bodies up and down to the liberating tunes.
Not to mention, Jake is also one of the kindest souls you'll ever meet. Gracious, kind, and extremely humble, he makes you feel at home when you're at the venue, including you in his thought processes, his inspirations, and his world. I'm thankful to have had the chance to interview this genuine and talented human being.
Here is our interview:
Neelu Mohaghegh [NM]: How did you get started in music?
Phangs (J): "Well, all the way back to the beginning, my parents made me in middle school band. I played the saxophone and hated every second of it. But we didn't have money for any other kind of music lesson, so I had to do it all 3 years and then was allowed to stop when I got to high school. So I immediately quit, but was super into emo/punk bands of that era and picked up the guitar on my own pretty quickly. Been doing it ever since." [NM]: How has being a dad maybe changed your perspective of life and has it at all changed you as an artist? (J): "Oh definitely! I love being a dad. The perspective shift has been amazing. It helps me sort what truly matters and what really is vapid." [NM]: How would you describe your music in one word or phrase? (J): "Nostalgic." [NM]: Tell me more about the Vans collaboration! That is so amazing and I am so happy for you. How did that partnership happen? Why Vans? What was the design process like and what inspired you for it? (J): "I've ALWAYS loved sneakers. I'm obsessed. When I was in high school I worked at a local sneaker store, where I was actually in charge of stock and orders on new releases and color-ways. But after high school, my first real tour I ever went on was the Vans Warped Tour. So it's just always been a special company to me, especially as a musician. Getting to design my own custom pair was so cool! I'm very grateful to the Vans team for allowing me to express myself in that way." [NM]: Let me know about this upcoming project, how is it different from what you've done before, and what has the creative process been like for this? (J): "It's different mostly because it's full of features from my friends. It's been a blast collaborating with other people and letting them into my world. Ultimately, at the core, it's still the same emo Phangs in there haha. But I'm definitely just making songs that I personally love. " [NM]: Who is your new favorite artist find? (J): "I'm fully in now on Porter Robinson. Can't get enough! Oh and the new Benny Sings record has literally been on repeat all year for me." [NM]: What is your goal for the rest of this year and hopes for the new year? (J): "Just writing even more music! And then going and playing it live for everyone in 2022!" [NM]: Any fun plans for Halloween? / Are you a Halloween guy? (J): "I never have been in the past, but I have kids now and they're so into it. So yes, I am now haha." [NM]: What is your favorite concert memory from when you've performed in the past or on this tour? (J): "Oh man. That's a tough one. I think it's less about a specific moment, and more so just collective moments where I'm aware that a song that I'm playing has affected someone deeply and I see their demeanor change. I live for those moments.

Music is so special in that way." [NM]: Who is someone you'd love to collaborate with at some point? (J): "Oh, so many. One in particular that I think would just be sonically cool is me and Lights. I just think our voices would be cool together." [NM]: What is something you do outside of music or something you're into that fans may not know about you? (J): "I'm an open book.

"Dihydrogen monoxide is coming out of your tap!"
A county official in Florida says two now-suspended radio DJs, Val St. John and Scott Fish, could face felony charges over an April Fool's running gag in which they warned listeners that local tap water contained "dihydrogen monoxide," another way of describing water. "My understanding is it is a felony to call in a false water quality issue," said Lee County public information officer Diane Holm: "They will have to deal with the circumstances." As for the suspension itself, "We take our FCC license very seriously," said a VP of the broadcasting company. [WTSP] (& Patterico)
Filed under: broadcasters, Florida
So, what was false about the report? (I guess they could have added that it also contained trace amounts of Chlorine).
By wfjag
Another failure of public schools. If only they had taught a class about such things in, oh say, the seventh grade. They could have called it science or some such.
But when the inevitable class action lawsuits are settled it will prove once again that being dumb can be profitable, not much for the plaintiffs mind you, but still profitable. They will probably get a coupon for a free gallon of bottled water from Costco.
Serves 'em right for listening to country music, don't they know they should have been listening to Disney Radio. Now that's the perfect music for the eleven year old mind.
By Bumper
It also show how easy it is to start "Smart Meters are Making Your Children Dumb" scares (though, unlike that one, the "Dihydrogen Monoxide" claims are usually accurate! Ever year in Florida alone, 350 children die from breathing it.)
By Robert
Will these charges hold water?
By Jack Olson
I'd have to hear the broadcast to understand. If their statements were factual then truth is an absolute defense. If they were saying that you shouldn't drink your tap water because it is poisonous, then that is not true and they might deserve a slap on the wrist. Still, sheesh, it seems like a minor issue to use a very old, very popular, widely known joke which is easily understood by anyone with literally a sixth-grade education *or* access to an internet search engine.

An excellent example of the rampant chemo-phobia in modern western societies.
To all the chemo-phobes out there, please note the following.
There is nothing inherently artificial about chemicals. Everything you can see, feel and smell. your body, every plant and every animal on the face of the earth, even the very air that surrounds you is in its entirety made up of chemicals.
Grow up and get over it.
By MattS
In the 1970s, local TV news carried an April Fool's report that Blue Hill, an innocuous 600 foot hill 10 miles south of Boston, was having a spectacular volcanic eruption. Some people complained that they had been panicked and the two reporters responsible lost their jobs. I sympathized with the reporters; anyone with an elementary knowledge of geology would know the report was ridiculous, and anyone with doubt could simply open his door and look. But there has long been a strict standard that TV news is never to risk false panic even inadvertently (unless a member of the plaintiff's bar stands to profit).
By Hugo S. Cunningham
You see a similar ignorance of basic chemistry in campaigns against fluoridation of water. It is claimed that fluorine or some compound thereof is toxic, although these are not what is added to water, and without consideration of the fact that the same substance may be neutral or even beneficial in one concentration and toxic at a higher concentration.
By Bill Poser
I feel sorry for the citizens of the area. If saying that" dihydrogen monoxide" coming out of water taps constitutes a water quality "hoax", the imbeciles in charge do not know the meaning of either. Hint: if it's true it is not a hoax.
By Jim Roberts
Proof that the only thing more stupid than the general public are government officials.
Since the constituents of "dihydrogen monoxide" are demonstrably hazardous (hydrogen in the case of the Hindenburg and oxygen in the case of the Apollo astronauts) then it is only reasonable that the combination of the two would be doubly hazardous. Right?
By Blackfoot
Good thing they didn't reveal the real threat- hydrogen-hydroxide!
Your well stated rant made me think of this:

NY AG: Madison Realty Capital to pay more than $1 million for victims of fraud and tenant harassment
The legal fallout from Raphael (Rafi) Toledano's brief yet soul-crushing stint as an East Village landlord continues.
Yesterday, New York Attorney General Letitia James announced an agreement that secures more than $1 million in rent credits for harassed tenants and provides housing placements for 10 homeless families.
The agreement with private equity firm Madison Realty Capital comes after James found that the company aided and abetted tenant harassment and other fraud by Toledano.
"Today's agreement stands up for all the tenants harassed and pushed out of their homes by a fraudulent landlord and the lender that financed his unlawful operation," James said in a statement. "Madison Realty Capital aided one of our city's worst landlords in his unlawful scheme, but we're holding the company to account and delivering real relief to the many victims through rent credits and housing placement."
Here's more of the background and current narrative via the AG's office:
With the financial backing of Madison Realty Capital, Toledano harassed tenants through coercive buyouts; executed illegal construction practices; and failed to provide tenants with utilities, repairs, and other necessary services.
Even with this track record, in 2015, Madison Realty loaned Toledano over $100 million to purchase a 15-building portfolio in the East Village, despite his limited experience in managing a portfolio of this size, evidence of prior tenant harassment, and plans to continue to vacate rent-stabilized tenants and renovate units in violation of law.
Attorney General James' investigation found that Madison Realty Capital knew or should have known of Toledano's history, that the proposed conversions were unlawful, and that the aggressive schedule for buyouts and renovations was likely to result in tenant harassment.
As a result of the loan that allowed Toledano to take over management of the East Village Properties, Toledano did exactly that — harassing hundreds of tenants, engaging in dangerous construction practices, and failing to provide basic services. In March 2017, the East Village properties filed for bankruptcy.
Under the terms of this agreement — which also resolves claims filed against Toledano's former business entities in New York bankruptcy court — Madison Realty Capital must now take ownership of the 15 buildings in the East Village portfolio subject to $1.05 million in rent credits.
These rent credits will be shared among the remaining tenants who suffered through Toledano's mismanagement of these properties. The owners of the buildings will also ensure placement of 10 formerly-homeless families and will adhere to tenant health and safety protections during construction there.
Under the settlement agreement with the AG's office, Madison wasn't required to admit wrongdoing.
"We are pleased to have resolved this matter without admitting or denying any of the allegations raised, and will continue to work with the tenants and community stakeholders to continue to improve the buildings and bring positive change to the community," a spokesperson for Madison said in a statement obtained by The Real Deal.
In June 2019, James announced a settlement with Toledano to put an end to his harassment of tenants and to prevent him from engaging in speculative real-estate deals designed to profit by violating New York's rent-stabilization laws.
In previous years, Toledano purchased 28 buildings in two separate portfolios from the Tabak family for a total of $140 million. Experienced real-estate players raised red flags about Toledano's heavy reliance on debt.
In an interview with The Real Deal in June 2016, Toledano, then 26, made "frat-tastic boasts about his wealth," including: "I'm worth a fuckload of money, bro."
Previously on EV Grieve:
• Tenants call out Madison Realty Capital: Stop warehousing rent-regulated apartments
• Report: Raphael Toledano files for Chapter 11; $145 million deal for EV portfolio is off the table
Labels: Madison Realty Capital, Raphael Toledano
NOTORIOUS said...
Game over, bro.
The reporting on Toledano's real estate management of his highly indebted portfolio has been straight forward tenant harassment to force rent regulated tenants to give up their leases, tenant endangerment, tenants required to make a decision to fight landlords while living in deplorable conditions created by the landlord or give up the lease and move to safety. This happened for years and everyone knew about it. Why Toledano and others responsible are not usually criminally prosecuted is a head scratcher. At least there is now an agreement for the tenants. I would not have been able to hold on and fight for justice like some of them did. I doubt a million dollars covers it, I hope it does.
Giovanni said...
Unfortunately, this settlement will do little to stop the kind of predatory real estate practices that victimizes tenants while making landlords richer. For some reason, real estate is the one business which can be used by owners to openly harass, intimidate and endanger people without any fear of criminal prosecution. The only time the owners go to jail is when their buildings literally blow up and kill people due to their own negligence and greed, and yet the owners still get to keep the profits by selling the scene of the crime to the next profiteer.
Gojira said...
Nowhere near enough money. And why do so many of these obvious guilty parties get to settle without having to admit to any wrongdoing? They should be nailed and exposed for the criminals they are.
Why no admission of wrongdoing? Toledano AND Madison Effin' Realty should ALL be in prison for a good long time.
And while a million dollars is not chicken feed, it won't ever make up for what those tenants went through.
They should force Toledano & his partners-in-crime go live in a 3rd world slum without any running water for about 6 weeks.
$1 million, that's it? This AG is a joke.

Only 6 weeks?
A million dollars is permission for them to do it again
Chaz said...
Really what the city should do is to seize the property and give no compensation to Madison, and auction it off with the legal agreements to improve the conditions, with the punishment that it can be seized again.
Tenants look up Regina vs DHCR decision.
This recent ruling was slipped out in the midst of the pandemic and seriously threatens our abilities to catch and pursue charges against these landlords by limititing HPSTA law. To all pursuing justice from years of fraud to illegally deregulated units pay attention!
What price on the adverse effects he caused for so many people. Evidently the price is $1M. What a joke.
Seems to me (as a tenant of one of Toledano's buildings that is part of this settlement):
Leticia James is guilty of aiding and abetting Toledano and Madison.
Madison doesn't have to admit they knowingly set Tolendano up to fail and now become owner of the 15 buildings, even though they are known to be just as bad as Tolendano. 327 E12th Street remains without gas and Madison says the building must be unoccupied in order to restore the cooking gas line's. Madison's Silverstone was in charge of the cooking gas line restoration at 325 East 12th Street, next door to 327 E 12th St and the building remained occupied throughout the entire job. 325 East 12th Street has 37 apartments while 327 E12th Street has 22 apartments. $1.5 million isn't much compared to how much tenant's suffered in those 15 buildings for years.
Has Raphael Toledano gotten out of his $3million settlement that Leticia James bragged about in December 2019? These tenants get nothing from Toledano directly following this recent settlement?
If so, it's another NYC disgrace.
These 15 buildings will, most likely, be demolished and replaced. The present tenants, many who have lived in these buildings for decades, will be relocated and offered their current rents for only 7 years. That's the NYC housing law that doesn't protect tenants. Once this 7 years are up, the tenant's Leticia James claims to be looking out for will have to pay market rate for their apartments.
NY Rent Control and Rent Stabilized Tenants Beware!!! NY is not looking out for you and the settlement Leticia James will only worsen tenant's rights in the near future.

esports chinese drama
I think about 40%, if not half of the drama is set in the game itself, meaning the gaming itself will deliver some of the adrenaline compared to when you just see a small screen and the commentary and acting is the reason why you even get what is going on (fortunately the series does feature good enough CGI to pull it off).
But this is not the only similarity. and The King's Avatar. I'm surprised. e.async = 1; There's something magical about every single drama on this list! ", To offer the audience immersive experiences, the new drama has used a wide range of world-leading technologies, including motion capture, face capture and unreal engine real-time rendering, which are commonly used in movies like 'The Jungle Book' and 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes.'. The casting includs Show Luo, Wu Chun and Jerry Yan. Battle of Cahngsha is maybe not so popluar, but it's a masterpiece. How is The Untamed not here? You'll note below that I list the genre for each series (e.g., romance, adventure, fantasy, etc.). We need to add Story of the Yanxi Palace to this list. For Chinese historical dramas, it's incontestable that The Longest Day in Chang'An is the best this year. Asia's esports dominance is built on a gaming ecosystem that favors esports, a cultural preference for esports titles, high levels of investment in esports competition, and a robust esports infrastructure. I Will Never Let You Go and Untamed should be on this list.
It's a must watch and I'm recommending it to everyone!!! More efforts are needed to add more innovation to related entertainment products and offer audiences better experiences.". So, maybe this can be an intro list to people curious about sports dramas.
One of my favorite (TW) dramas too! Where possible, I've included series trailers or even first episodes—just don't forget to turn on the English subtitles! And I am disappointed that they did not mention the latest dramas. China Daily | The King's Woman (秦时丽人明月心) contains all of these elements! f.parentNode.insertBefore(e, f); Here you will find the 15 best, most popular Chinese TV dramas of all time.
This drama isn't particularly serious, but if you are in the mood for a good, light watch with likeable characters, The Endless Love is just the ticket! The King's Avatar, not about love but still good e-sport drama. Starring: Yang Yang, Maggie JiangEpisodes: 40.
A report published Monday by research group Ampere Analysis finds that 26 percent of Chinese Internet users watch esports at least once per month, more …
The action takes place in one of the most chaotic periods in China's history, the era when the country was divided into Northern and Southern dynasties. They could have fixed that portrayal mistake. I have got inspired and have been watching all chinese dramas including great architect, love the way you are, stay with me, medical examiner, they are all awesome collections. Li Yiyang, an analyst at consulting firm iResearch, said esports have already become a red hot field in terms of market size and popularity. Li Yiyang, an analyst at consulting firm iResearch, said esports have already become a red hot field in terms of market size and popularity.
I cried like a child. This list of dramas is best for people who want to begin watching Chinese films. Without written authorization from CDIC, such content shall not be republished or used in any form. Genre: Historical fiction Episodes: 54 Original release: 2018 Based on the 14th-century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, this Chinese drama takes place in the late Han dynasty, when they had already ruled for 400 years.
The story is about a romance that lives for thousands of years, across several lifetimes. I love Ashes of love most❤ I really love Jin mi, she is so beautiful and I love the story too.
She departs with her fellow disciple whom she has known since childhood. I really feel bad. Esports streaming viewership increased by 75-100%. Revenues generated from the esports industry jumped 16.2 percent to 96.96 billion yuan in 2019, growing faster than the overall gaming sector, the report added.
"With the rising government support, esports is booming in China, generating a series of new businesses. The King's Avatar is the only drama not featuring a romance story unless you count how much the players love the game itself. i think Love o2o is an interesting drama to watch, I watch eternal love and love 020. It's a masterpiece.
If someone did not have time to meet, skipping a few hours ahead until practice is over is a common occurrence in this drama. Among western countries, the Scandinavian nations lead the pack, with 9 percent of Danish Internet users and 8 percent of those in Sweden reporting watching esports on a monthly basis. e.src = u; Yang said she hopes more audiences will have a better understanding of esports through the new series. Their love is like a war in which no side wants to surrender. In the "eternal love" , u mean 50 million ...right? Legend Of Fuyao, Eternal Love, Legend Of Mount Shu and Novoland: The Rift In The Sky are my favourites! Based on the 14th-century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, this Chinese drama takes place in the late Han dynasty, when they had already ruled for 400 years. One day, he is suddenly replaced as captain and cut from his team. While the novel describes events that span more than a century, the TV drama covers only 20 years—from 200 CE until the very end of the Han Dynasty in 220 CE. Also, while Gank Your Heart and The King's Avatar do feature a game at their center, Go Go Squid!

Jenny Gilruth MSP, today (Monday 22nd October) paid visit to Glenrothes Foodbank, Pentland Park. The foodbank offers much vital support to individuals and families in the surrounding community.
Ms Gilruth met with volunteers to see first-hand the support the foodbank provides to Glenrothes residents.
"Foodbank volunteers here in Glenrothes, and across Scotland, do amazing work to help those most in need.
"It is scandalous that in 2018 families are forced to depend on foodbanks, simply to get by. I am urging people in our local area to donate what they can and provide a lifeline to members of the Glenrothes community who are struggling to get by.
Glenrothes Foodbank are currently appealing for donations for instant mash, beans & sausages, tinned potatoes, tinned vegetables and snacks.
The foodbank is located at Caledonia House, Pentland Park, Saltire Centre, Glenrothes, KY6 2AQ. Open Monday, Wednesday & Friday – 1pm to 4.45pm.
