@intoronto1125 It is also likely that a new hockey arena in Markham could be used for something like volleyball. And the velodrome would have to be moved from Exhibition Place to the Portlands because it was proposed on the site where BMO field is now.
Also, Toronto can use the same argument that they did in 2008 with the city being a "City of Nations". Seeing as Toronto is one of the most multicultural cities on the planet with nearly half its population being born outside of Canada, this could be used to its advantage as every athlete and spectator could feel at home in some way.
Yes in my/George's proposal the BMO FIeld space has been taken into account. Accordingly the veldorome/bmx facility will be at the Portlands.
Markham is too far and a temporary arena for the Portlands is proposed like London's basketball arena.
-Not almost half it is more then. 52% according to the 2008 bid book so probably around the same or more this time around. I think its a good argument to unite the world in the most multicultural place on the planet.
Would the temporary arena be for volleyball?
Yes it would
I think Australia would have one one of 2000-2020 imo.
Very interesting speculation indeed.
For a Toronto 2024 bid if my proposal which is very realistic came into reality:
-Only one venue (Canoe slalom at 125 km in St. Catherines) (besides 3 football stadiums in Ottawa, Hamilton and Montreal) would be held outside of Toronto's core.
-Out of the 31 venues in the city only 5 are not in the downtown core. With the distances being: 28km for eventing equestrian, 27km for Tennis, and 25km for golf. The IOC's evaluation report for 2008 included venues only 20km away from athlete's village. THe other two are 13km for trap shooting, 10km for mountain biking.
-All venues in Toronto will be connected by subway/lrt by 2024 which is a bonus
All other venues are in the waterfront a 12km distance between each end.
So you wouldn't be expecting a Canada "wide" Football tournament?
A perfect chance to acknowledge past Olympic hosts, by having Vancouver, Calgary and Montreal host, alongside the capital Ottawa and nearby city of Hamilton. It would remove the minor stadiums proposed in the 2008 bid.
No having football three time zones away is slightly ridiculous when you have 6 stadiums all within a fair distance of Toronto.
Toronto (BMO, Rogers, Olympic) Hamilton, Montreal and Ottawa.
It would be mostly sentimental, rather than practical. Besides, the football tournament is mostly held a few days before the Olympics.
The latter rounds and finals would be held in the Ontario based venues and Montreal.
Just think of the Women's World cup, and other similar events, matches are held throughout the country, some at the same time.
Difference being this is the Olympics not the World Cup. Compact as possible = best. Look at atlanta all venues in close proximity.
Location:Youngstown, Ohio
The more I think about it, the more I want a Summer Olympics in Toronto. Will give me an excuse to head North for a little bit.
But that doesn't apply to the football preliminaries, they can house athletes in hotel rooms. It brings the nation together and makes it more enjoyable, as opposed to just being Toronto's games.
zekekelso
You *want* to spread the football tournament as wide as possible. It allows the whole country to feel like they are part of the games (especially as Federal money is always involved.) It helps with ticket sales and eases logistics on the host city.
Greater London could easily have hosted all the football preliminaries. They sent games to Scotland, Wales, the North Country, etc. for a reason.
Glasgow is the same distance that is between TOronto and Montreal so the tournament is being spread out.
Do you honestly not understand the point (and the differences in geography between the UK and Canada) or are you just being arguementative?
I clearly understand the point you are making but I am also a realist. Having football games in Vancouver which is pretty far from Toronto is not going to cut it for the Olympics. Why didn't the USA have matches in La for 1996? Because its too far. It would be nice to have games that far but at the end of the day flying teams around the country is not going to work.
and the differences in geography between the UK and Canada, please I am a geography student so I should know.
George_D
The background differs between countries. In UK football is the most spectacular sport. So it is normal for all countries of UK like Scotland and wales to have some football matches. In Canada the spread of the football tournament as wide as possible is implemented by having football matches in 2 biggest cities after Toronto (Montreal and Ottawa). Οntario also is the most populous province so its logical to have there more than one stadiums. I dont think that this spread could satisfied having matches in greater distances (that would create other problems) and considering that in that regions football isn't more popular than the cities mentioned.
Just think this.
Ontario's area is 1,076,395 km2 . UK's area is 243,610 km2
I remember during the 2007 FIFA u20 world cup there were issues with the distance. The Chile team played in Toronto then Edmonton then Toronto then Edmonton and again to Montreal. Look at the time zone differences it creates issues for athletes as well.
"Chile fought off the effects of jetlag to emerge as winners of Group A, criss-crossing their way from Toronto to Edmonton and back to collect seven points"
Why put unnecessary jet lag on athletes when 6 stadiums are available within distance.
If you can fly teams over 1,000 miles (as was done for '96), you can fly them 3,000. You keep the groups local, so you just need to fly them once. I don't see that as a logistical problem.
3,000 is 3x the timing. And you can't forget that the last two group games have to be held at the same time. THen what?
runningrings
During the 2000 Olympics, Football was held only on only in eastern Australia. Perth, WA got nothing as it is a four hour flight from Sydney. Australia and Canada are incomparably larger than the UK, so there is no point in comparing.
Quaker2001
Did China spread football venues all over the country in 2008? Is Brazil in 2016? You mentioned U.S. 1996. Australia 2000 has already been mentioned. All of those Olympics could have spread out football more than that did, but need did. They don't have to go all the way to Vancouver and Edmonton if they don't want when there are enough good stadiums in closer proximity to Toronto.
6 stadiums that are fair in size are available.
Rogers Centre - 50,000
BMO Field - 28,000 with expansion
Olympic Stadium - 80,000
Olympic Stadium, Montreal - 70,000
Ivor Wynne - Hamilton - 40,000
Frank Clair Stadium - Ottawa - 40,000
Surely proposing to use Montreal's Olympic Stadium is enough sentimentality for the Olympic buffs out there?
If a Toronto Olympics was to include Calgary and Vancouver just because of 1988 and 2010, they wouldn't be using venues specific to those Games. Both their Ceremony stadiums were existing, and not built as a result of their respective Olympics. If you are going to go that far west, I think using Edmonton's Commonwealth Stadium would make more sense.
Calgary's stadium is in need of repair. Both Commonwealth and BC have been renovated recently. However it doesn't make them a candidate for football games if Toronto were to host the games.
Well you ARE building Toronto's Olympic stadium from scratch, why not go with the number proposed in 2008? 100,000?
I don't think Montreal's Olympic Stadium can go beyond 65,000 in football mode.
Sydney 2000 had Brisbane up north, Melbourne down south, Canberra west of Sydney and Adelaide south-west to supplement the 2 Sydney venues.
It could have gone with Perth, but they chose not to do so. What I'm saying is the football tournament does not need to be compact, athletes for that event end up staying in hotels throughout the competition wherever they're held, regardless of where they're held. It's the same for the World Cup etc, so why couldn't it apply for the Olympics too? It's not too long a flight or problem to transport such athletes.

A Very Good Basic Figure, The Playmates Dr. Julian Bashir Still Seems Unimpressive.
The Good: Good sculpt, Good coloring, Decent variety of accessories
The Bad: Accessory coloring, Slightly overproduced, Very bland facial expression, Balance issues.
The Basics: Very average, the Doctor Julian Bashir Playmates figure is more average than anything else.
I love Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. It remains one of the few shows I truly miss now that it is no longer on television and it is one that I still actively collect toys, cards and other merchandise from. One of the characters who seems to be hard to get a good rendering of in toy form is Dr. Julian Bashir. For sure, Diamond Select got him right with their latest figure but even variant figures like the "Trials And Tribble-ations" Bashir seem to be riddled with problems. At the outset of making Deep Space Nine figures, Playmates Toys seemed to get Bashir done fine, but without flair. Dr. Bashir may be rendered fine but he is also terribly bland.
Doctor Bashir, for those who were not tuned in to Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, was the Chief Medical Officer of space station Deep Space Nine. He arrived on the space station completely green and worked his way up to respectable with his love of "frontier medicine." The Doctor Bashir figure features Bashir as he appeared in the first five seasons of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (reviewed here!), before the uniforms were changed.
The Star Trek: Deep Space Nine 1993 Collection of action figures contained nine figures and it focused on the primary command crew of space station Deep Space Nine, with Doctor Bashir being one of the least exciting additions to the collection. Doctor Bashir is a human officer, a young man who is looking at Deep Space Nine to fill his life with adventure. Bashir appears in his action figure debut as a very bland StarFleet officer. He is attired in his black StarFleet space station jumpsuit. This was one of the most common action figures in the assortment and it remains fairly easy to find even now. Still, card collectors helped keep this from being a complete pegwarmer as it features a SkyBox trading card exclusive to the action figure, which made it hunted by trading card collectors as well.
The Doctor Bashir figure is the human StarFleet officer as he appeared in seasons one through five of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, with the black uniform and slicked back hair. Doctor Bashir is attired in his black StarFleet uniform with the teal blue (for Medical/Sciences division) shoulders. The outfit is open at the collar, enough that his lilac undershirt may be seen. The outfit is colored appropriately, though one of the rank pips on the collar of the undershirt is wrong.
Standing four and one-half inches tall, this is a very bland recreation of Doctor Bashir immortalized in plastic. The character is molded with his hands ready to hold most of his accessories in a half-closed position. His legs have a very neutral stance, so this figure stands up and looks like he is ready to be displayed, as opposed to an action pose which made some of the earlier Star Trek figures more problematic for posing in displays. Despite having a very neutral stance, Doctor Bashir has poor balance off his stand and must be kept in a flatfooted position (so the stand helps with balance). There is a decent level of uniform detailing, including the communicator pin on the chest being both molded into the figure and then painted on. The sculpting details lessen, though at the hands, where Bashir has less detailing, including a lack of defined knuckles, though he has faintly molded fingernails.
Doctor Bashir's face is molded in a bland, neutral expression that does not have anything distinct to make him recognizable. In fact, his skin is colored much lighter than Siddig El Fadil's actual skin is. The hair is tough to capture for a Bashir figure as Bashir had hair that was puffed up and back, but Playmates made a fair go at it. At least it doesn't look like Bashir is wearing a helmet.
The paint job is fair at best, especially for the face. The skin tones are monotonal white with no shading or subtlety. The figure's lips are painted an unnaturally bright pink which looks somewhat ridiculous. As well, Bashir's eyes are brown with white pupils, which is disturbing.
Doctor Bashir comes with five accessories, including the base, most of which had noticeably been recycled from Star Trek: The Next Generation figures. Doctor Bashir comes with a medical kit, medical tricorder, PADD, DNA scanner and the base. The Action base is a StarFleet delta shield symbol with the name "BASHIR" stuck on it with a cheap, black sticker. The center of the base has a peg which fits into the hole in either of Doctor Bashir's feet! When Doctor Bashir stands flatfooted on the stand, he is stable for balance and has a decent, neutral display appearance. The base is also enough to support Bashir in more outlandish poses, which is nice.
The Medical kit is essentially a big flat purse with a plastic strap which may be slung over Bashir's shoulder. While it has the basic shape of a medical kit, it is utterly lacking in the surface details and markings of a StarFleet medical kit. It is a monotonal silver which is close to what the prop looks like, but it is a pretty bland accessory.
The Medical Tricorder is a similarly light-on-details accessory. The 3/4" box looks like the scanning device used by Doctor Bashir and it fits in either of his hands. This has the surface details of a tricorder, up to and including that the scanning wand is molded into the top of the device, but it does not do anything.
The PADD is essentially the Star Trek version of an iPad (actually, it's the other way around as Star Trek had them first!) and it is basically a flat chip of plastic. To simulate the screen, there is a sticker and that is more effort than most of the other accessories got.
Finally, there is the DNA Scanner. This is an accessory unique to Doctor Bashir. It was created for the second episode of the series and the prop is molded properly to look like the specific medical device. Like the tricorder, it fits into either of Bashir's hands. However, there are no surface details and it is cast in the silver plastic without coloring details, like the black grip.
This is the unfortunate aspect of all four of Doctor Bashir's accessories; they are molded in a silver plastic which looks like what the props looked like on the show, save that they lack highlights, details and accent colors. Clearly Playmates went through some effort to sculpt the accessories realistically, but the coloring minimizes the sense of realism and clashes with the coloring of the figure. Doctor Bashir is over-accessorized, but they are not the most hideous colors for accessories from Playmates.
As well, Playmates included a trading card unique to the figure from SkyBox which attracted trading card collectors to this figure in addition to toy collectors. The trading card has a shot of Doctor Bashir with a black starfield behind him (this makes for a great card to get signed by actor Siddig El Fadil, who played Julian Bashir all seven years!). The back has information on Doctor Bashir and it's easy to see why card collectors happily hunted these down!
Doctor Bashir continued a generally high playability quality from Playmates and he was quite good at the time, pleasing collectors and fans alike. Doctor Bashir is appropriately stiff, but has decent poseability. Doctor Bashir is endowed with twelve points of articulation: knees, groin socket, biceps, elbows, shoulders, neck, and waist. All of the joints, save the elbows and knees, are simple swivel joints. As a result, the neck turns left to right, but the head cannot nod. Similarly, the shoulders are not ball and socket joints and only rotate. Still, Playmates dealt with this limitation by having a swivel joint in the bicep, that allows everything below to turn and offers real decent poseability!
Moreover, for use with actual play, Doctor Bashir may bend or extend at the elbows, which offers a greater amount of movement potential making him one of the more realistic Star Trek action figures to play with (for those who actually play with these toys!). On his base, Doctor Bashir is exceptionally stable, even in the most ridiculous poses. He actually looks very dignified and ready to save lives in his neutral display pose.
Playmates seemed to gauge about the right amount of interest for the first wave of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine figures, but Doctor Bashir still seemed to be a slow seller of the assortment. Despite having a guest starring shot on Star Trek: The Next Generation, Doctor Bashir was still a pegwarmer. As a result, he has not appreciated much since his initial release almost fifteen years ago.
That said, at least Playmates tried to make the figures collectible. Each figure has an individual number on the bottom of his right foot. In the attempt to make them appear limited, they had numbers stamped on them, though one has to seriously wonder how limited something should be considered when there are at least 45000 figures out there (my Doctor Bashir is #044602!).
The Doctor Bashir figure is a good figure, but in the face of later sculpts, this one is not superlative. Instead, it is average, but those collecting the 4.5" figures, this makes for a worthwhile figure to pick up.

Surviving Climate Chaos: Chaos, strength and community
Written by: Julian Caldecott
Surviving Climate Chaos is being published into a new world of lethal fires, floods and record-breaking temperatures, as well as frantic international negotiations before CoP 26 in Glasgow. This is while the IPCC warns us that we are in the last decade before Arctic, oceanic and equatorial tipping points take all choices out of human hands. This emergency calls for far greater focus and impact in our climate change response, and for the strengthening of communities and ecosystems everywhere against climate chaos
Adaptation.
Those working on the climate change response call 'adaptation' anything that makes human societies better able to cope with the effects of climate change. I wrote Surviving Climate Chaos mainly because there seemed to be great gaps in our understanding of how best to do this. Planning seemed to be working, more or less, at the macro level of predictable, large-scale phenomena like rising sea levels or changing rainfall patterns over large areas. That sort of thing can be handled by governments sharing satellite data and making top-down planning decisions, for example to harden coastlines against storms, or to stop people building houses on flood plains. But the response seemed weak and incoherent at the micro level of how communities respond to chaotic manifestations of change in their own local environments, which is what they actually have to live with. At that level, the issue is the strength of local systems to withstand, bounce back from or accommodate near-random shocks from an unstable climate. My book therefore seeks answers to the question of where do these kinds of strength come from, and how to safeguard and build them quickly in millions of localities?
Communities and ecosystems.
I started with understanding communities as human social systems: people living in a place and sharing a past, a language, a culture, an economy, and a relationship with their environment. The phrase 'more or less' needs to be inserted there, since people are so diverse, mobile and urban, and fewer people than before live in purely 'traditional' societies. Still, as I point out, people tend to gravitate together, to relate to one another and to where they live, and quickly to adopt local ways of doing things. One take-home from my book is that enabling community solidarity is easy, because it builds on the natural sociability of our species. Another is that it is also both very cheap and very useful as a way for larger society to strengthen itself against climate chaos. But a third is that to be strong a local society has to have a healthy relationship with its ecology, and that you can't have sustainability if you separate the security of local people from the security of local ecosystems. In the book I assemble a lot of evidence from aid projects that involved strengthening community-ecosystem bonds in Nepal, Bolivia and Zanzibar. I also report on my search of the official adaptation strategies of 158 countries for evidence that this approach is being followed. The results are encouraging: a third of countries are already doing community-based and ecosystem-based adaptation, or intend to.

Q: Pandas read_csv incorrectly naming columns I am trying to import a Leukemia gene expression data set found at https://www.kaggle.com/brunogrisci/leukemia-gene-expression-cumida. This data set has a lot of columns (22285) and the columns imported towards the end have an incorrect name. For example the last column named AFFX-r2-P1-cre-3_at is actually called 217005_at in the csv file. The image below shows my juypter notebook cells. I am not sure why it is being formatted this way? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A: Evidently the CSV file has column names that start with 'AFFX-r2-P1' -- it's not a pandas issue.  Using the built-in csv package shows:
import csv
from pathlib import Path

data_file = Path('../../../Downloads/Leukemia_GSE9476.csv')

with open(data_file, 'rt') as lines:
    csv_file = csv.reader(lines)
    fields = next(csv_file)
#
[
    (field_number, field)
    for field_number, field in enumerate(fields)
    if field.startswith('AFFX-r2-P1')
]

The output is:
[(22277, 'AFFX-r2-P1-cre-3_at'), (22278, 'AFFX-r2-P1-cre-5_at')]

August 2, 2017 | Megan Ellisor
Nutrition science student Krupa Trivedi spent her summer in India and Kenya researching the importance of human donor milk banks and the relationship between health issues and female empowerment. We asked Trivedi about her summer research and the opportunities she has been afforded as a recipient of the Chancellor's Leadership Scholarship.
Can you tell us about the research you have been working on this summer? What are you hoping to accomplish or learn?
I had the privilege to investigate multiple topics related to women and children's health. In June, I traveled to Vadodara, India, to work at Kashiba Children's Hospital. This pioneer institution is the second hospital in India to establish a human donor milk bank. The World Health Organization recommends that human donor milk be used as the second-best option to a mother's own milk for a baby. I investigated how human donor milk is used as a public health intervention to treat and prevent health conditions in babies. I hope that I am able to express the importance and value in age-old practices such as breastfeeding that are undermined by aggressive formula advertising.
In July, I traveled to Kenya to discuss the development of human milk banks in Nairobi with members of the Health Ministry. I also initiated my second project for the summer: researching the cultural factors that influence health in Kenya, specifically focusing on female genital cutting (FGC) and child marriage. Kenya is developing quickly, but like many nations, it struggles to disengage from injurious cultural practices. Our group met with organizations and facilities that empower and educate girls and community members to end gender-based violence. With a better understanding of the intersection between cultural practices and health in Kenya, we can more effectively create transformative initiatives.
How did you become interested in this topic?
Dr. April Fogleman from the nutrition department at NC State introduced me to human donor milk banking. I was made aware of and joined the FGC and child marriage research project through my sister, Mansi Trivedi, a medical student at The Brody School of Medicine at East Carolina University, and Dr. Mary Nyangweso of the religious studies department at East Carolina University.
What do you find most fascinating about your research?
Realizing the interconnected nature between both my research projects has been fascinating. Through my investigations, I learned that malnutrition is a health outcome of child marriage. Investigating social practices such as child marriage and FGC has enabled me to see a deeper value in public health interventions such as human donor milk banks. Practices such as FGC push young girls into womanhood early, incentivizing families living in poverty to marry off their daughters at a young age, which can lead to early pregnancy. Young mothers experience pregnancies when they are psychologically and physiologically immature. This can cause health issues for the mother and baby. Malnutrition leads to low birth weight and prematurity, requiring a baby to have access to breast milk. Due to complications, young mothers may have trouble providing this milk. Human donor milk banks offer safe access to pasteurized donor milk.
Who are the beneficiaries of your research?
Almost every single woman worldwide can benefit from the research that is being conducted on human donor milk banks. Knowledge empowers women to make educated decisions about the welfare of their children. Lack of awareness internationally coupled with aggressive formula advertising reduces the utilization of milk banks impacting the health outcomes of babies worldwide. Increasing awareness can increase utilization and donation of milk worldwide, serving the needs of more mothers and babies.
Women experience gender-based violence globally daily. In many cases, they accept the violence as a norm of life. Cultural ideologies that perpetuate gender-based violence must be deconstructed to empower young girls to realize their basic human rights. Through research and the identification of the long-term health outcomes of abuse, we can build stronger arguments against the cultural practices used to perpetuate violence against woman. Education at the grass-roots level and mobilizing government-led initiatives via public service announcements create this awareness.
What is the most common misconception about your research or field of study?
People are concerned that donated milk is unsafe. However, strict pasteurization protocol ensures milk safety. Due to low supply of donated milk, the most critical babies receive the pasteurized milk. However, with more awareness and education, increased milk donation can broaden the access to human donor milk to babies who are healthy and who do not have access to mother's own milk.
And gender-based violence is not just occurring in developing nations or certain areas of the world. In fact, gender-based violence, to varying degrees, is experienced in developed nations and it is not just limited to physical violence. Emotional and mental violence can be equally detrimental. In many cases, unfortunately, abuse that does not leave physical marks is not recognized.
You were awarded the Chancellor's Leadership Scholarship as a rising freshman. What opportunities has this scholarship afforded you, and what have you learned through the program?
The Chancellor's Leadership Scholarship allowed me to explore the world beyond the four walls of a classroom and to allocate my resources toward traveling and understanding the role I will assume as a working citizen. I have learned what leadership and service mean to me. I understand that service requires an exchange of time, knowledge, care and compassion. The true act of serving initiates a cycle of goodness because it is driven by humanity that is devoid of any expectations or savior complexes. I have found that true leadership requires a commitment to the enrichment of a group and not oneself. A leader empowers the strengths of a group by understanding the complexities of human experience. A leader does not stand above the team but is the foundation from which a group, community and larger society can work toward a common goal.

Q: Function that creates a dataframe out of a regression I'd like to write a function that returns a data frame of length N that looks as follows
y     x1     x2
14.84 -1.62 -0.39
9.72 -0.15 -1.83
9.40 1.08 -0.76
...
13.36 0.26 0.49

I'm a beginner - so I'd be happy if someone can bring me back on track. I have the following code, but I don't know how I can safe my x1, x2 and y1 into such a dataframe.
My code:
DataFrame(alpha, beta1, beta2, sigma, n){
  x1 <- runif(n, min = -10, max = 10)
  x2 <- runif(n, min = -10, max = 10)
  y1 <- as.vector(alpha + x1*beta1 + x2*beta2)
  dataframe <- as.data.frame()

  return(dataframe)
}

A: As mentioned in the comments, you need to assign your function definition to DataFrame first. Also your as.data.frame() statement is empty!
DataFrame <- function(alpha, beta1, beta2, sigma, n){
  x1 <- runif(n, min = -10, max = 10)
  x2 <- runif(n, min = -10, max = 10)
  y1 <- as.vector(alpha + x1*beta1 + x2*beta2)
  dataframe <- cbind.data.frame(y = y1, x1 = x1, x2 = x2)

  return(dataframe)
}

marcus livius drusus the younger
Marcus Livius Drusus the Younger, tribune of 91, is much featured in Colleen McCullough's The Grass Crown, our current read. He was the son of Marcus Livius Drusus, the tribune of 122, censor of 109, and adversary of Gaius Gracchus; nephew of Publius Rutilius Rufus; brother-in-law and later adversary of Quintus Servilius Caepio, son of the Gold of Tolosa; uncle of the half-siblings Servilia and Cato the Younger; and grandfather of the empress Livia – but knowledge of him is nonetheless sketchy and contradictory. It doesn't help that Livy's text survives in a limited form only.
Considered a conservative and on the side of the Senate, he did promulgate three controversial laws: a lex iudiciaria, most likely (the evidence is murky) the removal of the jury in the courts from the exclusive jurisdiction of the equites by splitting it between equites and senators, at the same time proposing to increase the numbers of a depleted Senate by admitting an equal number of equites; a lex frumentaria and lex agraria, the latter two in favor of the plebs. Pliny the Elder also mentions a monetary law. Originally, these bills had the support of most groups and individually of the princeps senatus M. Aemilius Scaurus and Marcus Crassus Orator, but this eroded, largely through the agitations of the consul L. Marcius Philippus and of Caepio, and the bills were annulled, even more so in the light of his fourth and final proposed law, a general franchise, i.e., citizenship, for all Italian Allies.
Arthur Keaveney, in Rome And The Unification Of Italy, writes (2.2) that Drusus "it must be said, lacked the true killer instinct" and in deference to the Senate did not veto the annulment of his laws.
This, in combination with Drusus' suspect friendship with the Marsic leader Q. Poppaedius Silo, was the beginning of the end. Especially as Drusus was accused of having accepted an oath of allegiance from the Allied's aristocracy, which would have gained him a huge clientèle. This information comes from Diodorus Siculus (37.11), whose texts unfortunately are not online – or if they are, I can't find them. H.H. Scullard, in From the Gracchi to Nero: A History of Rome from 133 BC to AD 86, thinks it may not have been a genuine document, and Keaveney, though he considers the oath "plausible," tends to agree. This is almost the only major deviation McCullough has of the later Drusus in her novel: the oath plays a rather large part in her story. (Drusus in his earlier years of course lacks ancient sources, but is very imaginatively portrayed.)
Drusus was murdered in his house and the war with the Allies, the Socii, became inevitable.
JSTOR (limited access) has The Policy of Livius Drusus the Younger by P. A. Seymour, The English Historical Review , Vol. 29, No. 115 (Jul., 1914), pp. 417-425. The Drusus as seen there is basically the Drusus we see in the novel.

Does DeMarco Murray's 2014 Workload Threaten His 2015 Season?
This post is part of The Crosswalk, Crossing Broad's reader submitted section. While checked for basic quality and readability, it is not edited by Crossing Broad, and all opinions expressed are those of the author, for better or worse. If you're interested in having your work appear on Crossing Broad, fill out the short sign up form here.
During their weekly radio show, WIP's Ray Didinger and Comcast Sportsnet's Reuben Frank (filling in for Glen Macnow) discussed the history of NFL runningbacks that had endured the amount of carries Eagles runningback DeMarco Murray tallied with the Dallas Cowboys last year. It was not very good. Didinger said specifically that "without exception", backs had experienced a significant dropoff in production the following season. Obviously, this can be a very concerning trend for Eagles fans who are looking for Murray to be the offense's workhorse after the Eagles made him a marquee signing this offseason in order to replace LeSean McCoy, the Eagles' all-time leading rusher and a player who happens to be the exact same age as Murray. Murray's injury history (he has missed 11 games in 4 seasons) is one concern, but so is his task of fully recovering from 392 regular season carries, in addition to 44 postseason attempts.
First, we have to look at the recent history of runningbacks coming off a similar workload. According to Pro Football Reference, 11 players have carried the ball 370 times or more in the regular season since 2000. Larry Johnson's 416 attempts in 2006 were the most, while Michael Turner's 376 for Atlanta in 2008 was the most recent example. Here is the entire list: Larry Johnson (2006, 416), Eddie George (2000, 403), DeMarco Murray (2014, 392), Ricky Williams (2003, 392), Jamal Lewis (2003, 387), Edgerrin James (2000, 387), Ricky Williams (2002, 383), Michael Turner (2008, 376), LaDainian Tomlinson (2002, 372), Curtis Martin (2004, 371), Shaun Alexander (2005, 371). Of the nine listed that aren't Murray or Ricky Williams' 2003 season (Ricky retired for a year after that season), they missed a combined 37 games the following season, equaling an average of about four games, an astronomical rate.
You could attribute that to the fact that they play a position that seemingly gets hurt more than any other. However, when you look at the durability of these players before their heavy workload seasons, the impacts are even more astounding. Those 9 players missed, in 30 seasons, a combined 41 games, including Jamal Lewis' 2001 training camp torn ACL that kept him out of the entire season. Those numbers equal just one and one third games missed per season, 2.7 games missed per season lower than the year after their 370+ rushing attempt seasons.
Murray's workload this season might be another factor to consider. He will most likely not be asked to carry the ball as many times as he was in Dallas, but he is nonetheless Chip Kelly's featured back in an offense that likes to run a lot of plays, substitute very little on offense, and feature its runningbacks. In Kelly's first two years with the Eagles, featured back LeSean McCoy did not miss a game and had nearly identical attempts in both seasons (314 in 2013 and 312 in 2014; average of 19.6 per game, although the Eagles ran an average of five fewer plays per game in 2013 than in 2014). Murray's workload could be less than McCoy's, however, because of the prominent second back in Ryan Mathews, something McCoy did not have as much of – despite our yearning for more Darren Sproles. Looking at Kelly's four years with Oregon, I think the carry distribution will most likely resemble that of 2011, when the Ducks featured LaMichael James, Kenjon Barner, and De'Anthony Thomas (this year it will be Murray, Mathews, and Sproles). That season, the Ducks averaged two more plays than last year's Birds, and if we break down the rushing attempts per play, James equaled .243, Barner rushed at a rate of .150 times per play, and Thomas reached .054 (something to note is that Ducks QB Darren Thomas had many attempts of his own, and is more mobile than Sam Bradford, but Eagles QBs last year rushed 0.047 times per play compared to Thomas' 0.055 in 2011 – a somewhat meaningless difference).
If we extrapolate those numbers to 70.4 plays per game (the Eagles' 2014 total), and agree that Murray will serve the LaMichael James role, he will be asked to rush 274 times during the regular season. Of the ten seasons discussed at the beginning, just three of them were followed up with attempts that eclipsed that mark, two by the four backs younger than Murray is now. Maybe Chip believes that a reduced workload can keep Murray on the field this season. Maybe he thinks his sports science can do the trick. History will be against him.

The central city of Buenos Aires, like many Latin American cities, has a formal urban vocabulary of interconnected plazas and open spaces. These patterns date from the Laws of the Indies, the laws promulgated by the Spanish to create uniform standards for the cities of their colonial empire. The plazas form a network that connects important buildings and serve as an infrastructural system for the city. Spaces like Plaza de Mayo, Tribunales, and Plaza San Martin stood out to us as some of the most memorable features of the city during our visit. The Retiro site, however, located adjacent to Plaza San Martin and the downtown area of the city, is completely devoid of any identifiable urban structure or clarity. We identified the major issues as: excessive devotion to infrastructural space, large plots of land held by government landowners, and a glut of open but inaccessible space that is closed to Porteños even though they claim the port as a key part of their identity.
We analyzed the formal qualities of these plazas. The regular grid of the city provides a standardized size for most of the plazas, which usually occupy one or two blocks of the city. However, depending on the public buildings that anchor the squares, they take on different functions: residential squares, political, and cultural. The squares are a unifying element of the cityscape, but also provide connections between unique landmarks of the city that stand out from the rest of the urban fabric.
The plazas of Buenos Aires are remarkably uniform in scale, owing to the standardized city grid that they grew out of. Looking at plazas around the world, however, we generally find a relationship between plaza size and their symbolic function. Plazas that serve as national political centers are usually larger than those that serve as city or regional centers. Neighborhood plazas are usually the smallest. However, in Buenos Aires, the most famous square at the center of the city, Plaza de Mayo, is about the same size as most other less important squares in the city. What does define importance of plazas are the buildings they have around them. Thus, plazas are both anchors of symbolic landmarks in the city as well as public spaces open to all.

The Irish Lotto jackpot rolled over on Saturday 20th February, but one ticket holder scooped €75,905 after matching five main numbers plus the Bonus Ball. However, the top prizes in both the Irish Lotto Plus 1 and Irish Lotto Plus 2 games were given away on what was still a wonderful night for many players.
The Irish Lotto numbers drawn were 10, 14, 22, 32, 34 and 40 with Bonus Ball 27. As well as the winning participant in the Match 5 + Bonus tier, there were over 46,000 players who picked up rewards. The other prizes were spread between a €3 scratchcard for matching two main numbers plus the Bonus Ball to €1,626 for matching five main numbers.
The biggest success stories of the evening came in the supplementary games, where there were two winners of the top prize in both Irish Lotto Plus 1 and Irish Lotto Plus 2. As the jackpots in these games are fixed, rather than shared if there are multiple winners, both lucky players in Irish Lotto Plus 1 landed €500,000, while the two Irish Lotto Plus 2 winners scooped €250,000 each.
Take a look at the Irish Lotto Results section for more information on all Saturday's draws, including a full Irish Lotto prize breakdown and the winning numbers from Irish Lotto Plus 1 and Irish Lotto Plus 2. There were also 121 players who matched the winning Lotto Plus Raffle code of 9776 to pocket €300 each.
The Irish Lotto jackpot will now climb to an estimated €6.5 million for the next draw on Wednesday evening, so if you want to get involved make sure to play online or by visiting an authorised retailer in Ireland. The latest results show that even if the jackpot is not given away, there are loads of other great prizes available which could really set you up for the rest of the year, if not for the rest of your life. Good luck!


Being a private company or a government deductor you would always be required to import and match your TDS challan details at the time of filing of quarterly TDS or TCS returns. You can do the same by making TRACES login to your account.
Option 2: Enter BSR code, date of deposit, Challan serial Number and amount.
Alternatively, you can choose to view "Challan consumption details" table.
What is the meaning of Challan?
For making the online payment one needs to have net banking or debit cards of the authorized banks.
You can submit the hard copies of challan together with the amount payable at physical bank counters.
Which things are required to be considered while making the Challan payment?
What is the process to view challan status on TRACES?
The results will appear. Also, any unused balance available will be shown against the challan details it belongs to.
What is the difference between Claimed and Unclaimed under challan status?
Claimed: An amount in challan which has been shown in TDS return by the tax filer and is successfully matched with the bank payment details is known as claimed.
Unclaimed: Any bank payments which have not yet been claimed in the return are known as unclaimed challan.
Deductor can view particulars of all the challans that have been used in the TDS return/statement for the period.
I have selected wrong section while making the TDS challan Payment. Is there a need to contact Assessing officer?
No communication to Jurisdictional Assessing Officer is required to be made in case of wrong selection of section code by the tax depositor. The CPC-TDS considers the nature of payment on the basis of TDS returns and not on the basis of challan particulars.
Even if you so wish to amend the details of challan it is suggested to file a correction statement through OLTAS.
Can a single challan be filed for different TDS payments?
Yes, a single challan can be filed for TDS payments to be made under different section codes. The nature of payment in a challan can have multiple selections.
While submitting challan for TDS which subhead shall be selected?
At the time of filling up challan for payment of TDS i.e. challan number 281 select Minor head – 400.
How deductee row can be moved from one challan to another?
A deductee row can be moved from one challan to other within a quarter if, the balance is available. In case the challan is not available in the same quarter or return, changes in respect of the same are first required to be done. After that deductee rows can be moved from one challan i.e. overbooked challan to another challan.
What do you mean by OLTAS?
OLTAS or Online Tax Accounting System is the initiative of the Income Tax Department. It was mainly done to keep a record of taxes paid through the uploading of challan details.
How can I check the authorized banks on OLTAS?
To check the list of authorized banks you are required to first visit www.Tin-nsdl.com. Now under the services tab select OLTAS. Further, select the icon of bank branches. A page will open up click on the state and select the location for which you want to check available bank branches. A list of all authorized banks in the region will open up.
CIN is unique through the country and hence is used for identification purposes of the challan.
What are the different challans available?

Screening in pregnancy help with the diagnosis of conditions that can affect you or your baby before the baby is born. This means that you may get earlier, more effective treatment, or that you can make an informed reproductive decision and can be counselled for the possible outcome.
Screening tests offered can be ultrasound scans or blood tests or a combination of both.
Screening tests do not always have an ability to give you an accurate diagnosis. They only give you the likelihood of having a certain health condition. If the screening test flags up a significant risk, you will be required to consider further testing which is aimed at ascertaining whether you or the baby are affected by the condition.
When couples or individuals have licenced fertility treatment (IUI, IVF, ICSI, etc.) they will have carried out pre-conception screening tests to rule out a possibility that they may be carrying an infection which can affect their health and /or the health of their future baby. The mandatory tests are screening for HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C. Our unit's policy is to test for gonorrhoea and chlamydia in addition to the above-mentioned mandatory tests.
Other screening tests such as Hepatitis A, HTLV, syphilis, CMV may be required too, as dictated by the nature of the specific fertility treatment or specific patient's risk factors.
Couples and individuals will have also been offered pre-conception genetic screening tests according to ethnicity (Cystic Fibrosis, thalassemia, Sickle Cell, Tay–Sacks, etc.). City Fertility can also offer an expanded pre-conception battery of genetic screening tests. 'Battery of tests' means that our genetic lab will use a single blood sample taken from you to check if you are a carrier of a number of genetic conditions. Some of these conditions may have an effect on your health and some may have no effect on you but may have implications on your child's health in case your partner or the person donating gametes to you is a carrier too. All of the above genetic tests can be performed before you try conceiving (pre-conception tests) or during the early stages of pregnancy (pre-natal). Pre-conception tests are aimed at finding a way of reducing the chance of conception with a baby who may be affected by the genetic condition. Pre-natal tests are aimed at assessing the risk that the baby you are carrying is affected by the genetic condition so that you can consider having a test (amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling) to get you an accurate diagnosis as to whether the baby is affected or not.
Pre-natal screening for chromosomal anomalies
This refers to tests carried out at the early stage of pregnancy to check if there is a significant risk that the baby may have an abnormal make-up of chromosomes. The most common example of such abnormality flagged up by such screening tests is Down syndrome (DS). Babies affected by DS have 3 copies of chromosome 21 rather than a just a pair.
Having an ultrasound to check the thickness of the back of the baby's neck (nuchal fold) combined with a blood test which are both carried out at 12-14 weeks, is the main screening method used in majority of NHS ant-natal clinics. The test can miss very few babies who have an abnormality involving chromosomes 21, 18, 13 and X chromosome (it has good sensitivity). However, it often flags up a concern when the baby has a perfectly normal set of chromosomes (it has low specificity). Once the screening test flags up a concern the next step is to have a diagnostic test which will ascertain if the baby is affected or not. In view of this there are fair few invasive diagnostic tests (chorionic villus sampling or amniocentesis) carried out to confirm the diagnosis when the baby has a completely normal set of chromosomes.
NIPT- Non-invasive prenatal testing – During pregnancy the fetus generates genetic material (DNA) through the placenta into the maternal blood circulation. Advances in lab technologies allow us to separate and use this small quantities of fetal genetic material in the maternal circulation for the purpose of pre-natal genetic screening. Compared to the 'standard' screening test carried out at 12-14 weeks as described above, the NIPT has several advantages:
The NIPT test can be performed from 10 weeks of pregnancy, two weeks earlier than the NHS 12-14 week screening.
The test has very good sensitivity and a much better specificity – unlike the combined screening test carried out at 12-14 weeks if the NIPT flags up a concern that the baby is affected by an abnormality there is only a minimal chance that the baby has a completely normal set of chromosomes. This reduces the number of unnecessary invasive diagnostic tests.
Due to its improved specificity it is also less likely to cause untoward anxiety.
While the combined screening test requires the skills of a sonographer who is experienced in nuchal fold measurements, NIPT is less operator dependent.
There are 2 types of tests you can opt for.
The STANDARD test
The standard test aimed at finding out how likely is your baby to have Down's syndrome (involving chromosome 21), Edward's syndrome (involving chromosome 18) and Patau's Syndrome (involving chromosome 13). The test also checks for any sex chromosomal abnormalities. The above conditions are the most common chromosome anomalies found in new-borns. There are many other possible chromosomal anomalies but they are more likely to result in pregnancy loss than to be found in live-births. The value of this test as a screening method for the above mentioned conditions has been validated.
The EXTENDED TEST
The extended test will give you the above validated screening for anomalies involving the sex chromosomes and chromosomes 21, 18 and 13, as well as a risk assessment of abnormalities involving all other chromosomes. In addition, the test looks for a possibility that the baby is affected by 5 types of microdeletions (deletions of a very small part of a chromosome) associated with major genetic syndromes. Yet, the validation of the test as a screening method for chromosomes other than the sex chromosomes, 21, 18 and 13 is still pending.
There are several labs providing non-invasive pre-natal genetic testing (NIPT). NACE provided by Igenomix is currently used at City-Fertility. NACE is one of the most accurate noninvasive prenatal tests to determine the chance of the presence of three most commonly screened for chromosomal conditions in pregnancy: Down's syndrome (T21), Edward' syndrome (T18) or Patau's syndrome (T13).
The NACE NIPT is particularly recommended for those over 35 years of age, parents to be who have been told that there was high probability of an abnormality by other screening methods and parents to be who had a confirmed chromosomal condition in a previous pregnancy. Finally, it is for those who wish to avoid unnecessary invasive testing, which carries a risk of miscarriage.

So it seems that everyone here with a 470 is running a much smaller set of jets than I am.
I'm at sea level or within a few hundred feet.
Per instruction by the shop that sold me the carb, i needed a 205 main and a 52 pilot.
Peak rpm is 3.75 turns out on the fuel screw. It's almost falling out, or is.
It dies at 1 turn in.
Could it have anything to do with my muffler needing to be repacked? I'm pretty sure there are no air leaks anywhere.
There's something way off with that carb if you need such big jets . You'll need to say what are your air jets and which needle for better help . I'm around 165 main and 40 slow jet , air is 100 and EMN needle ,don't remember what clip position, mixture screw is only 3/4 turn out, also a fcr41. Doing too many bikes currently to remember exact sizes the DRZ has and didn't write it down , should always write this stuff down ! I'm rich as heck yet so I can't see how yours is running . Make sure those numbers are genuine Keihin and not DJ which will be different.
I have no idea other than the carb was stock brand new fcr41mx and i only changed the pilot and main. I think I'll pull it apart to check all those those this weekend.
I'm at 170 main 45 pilot and EMR needle 4th clip.
Look for an air leak. You're running an airbox right? I know you have a BB/Stroker. What are the other mods?
I'll start checking for air leaks now. Yes, I'm running an airbox. I've done the 3x3 and also cut the entire right side out also for extra air.
Plug the side of the airbox back up , it's completely un-needed and probably slows flow down in this bike . I'd guess going down the road , airflow past the open side will cause a suction or low pressure zone right in front of the filter , exactly where you do not want it, fighting the intake from the motor .
Yeah... 45 pilot and a 100 slow air jet. 158 or 155 main with a 200 main air jet at most. Bigger the bore, the stronger the vacuum signal, so with a stroker big bore, a 150 or i55 would be about right. You with a 41 and a slightly weaker signal at WOT, slightly larger main. But none of that really affects the needle and definitely not the pilot (idle is idle).
Return the airbox to a true 3X3, nothing to be gained by making it larger. What cams in your beast? Ported? By whom? Oversize valves?
I believe everything else other than the stroker and bb is stock.
I think these are stock cams correct?
I know you guys are well versed. But if the extra hole was creating a low pressure area, that would be making it run fatter, not leaner, correct?
Yes those are stock. The right side panel is pretty tight against the box. Even if you run with the door and seat off, it doesn't create enough change to warrant that large of a jetting change.
The right side panel is pretty tight against the box. Even if you run with the door and seat off, it doesn't create enough change to warrant that large of a jetting change.
Agreed, something is funky and i need to find it.
I have checked and checked and i cant find an air leak.
As of now, with 3.5 turns out it fires up, runs decent, and doesn't pop on decel.
However, when i put the 48 pilot in last month it ran good too. But it suddenly started popping on decel again, but worse.
Im going to get a new sleeve from the carb to the head and see if maybe it's just old and worn.
Nothing is open until Monday though, so until then I'll pull the carb off and see what all the other jets are.
Popping on decel could be a leak in the exhaust also.
I ended up dropping all the way to a 160. It's slightly lean now (13.5ish) but the conditions today are the coldest conditions I will typically ever ride in.
How do I tell for certain this bike has a stroker kit?
The older kits(+5mm) required a spacer plate. Those with a 434 (94mm bore? Can't remember right now for sure) Piston made a 470. Todays Hotcranks or whatever sells a +4 that doesn't require a spacer place. That along with a 434 bigbore results in 462cc.
If you don't have a spacer plate you would have to remove the head and measure the stroke of the piston.
You have too much carb. Either source a 39 or install a travel longer travel restriction screw.
No way do you need the 48 pilot.
Cams will be on order Monday. Just trying to fix whatever issue I have going on first.
Pulled my head apart and the exhaust valves are pretty cupped. Could that have anything to do with the jetting issue?
Maybe. That's seems kind of soon. I have read a lot of bad things about Kibble White but I had also read that the past quality control issues with the Z valves were resolved.
I honestly had not expected the piston and exhaust valves to be so cared with buildup. The exhaust valves were cupped, and although they didn't seem to be leaking at all, there was evidence of deposits starting to creep down the seat.
