Bert and Ernie are not gay. That I even have to say this is the problem, not the fact that they aren't.
This week, long-time Sesame Street writer Mark Saltzman revealed that he wrote Bert and Ernie's relationship as that of "a loving couple" and based it on his own relationship with film editor Arnold Glassman.
Soon after, Sesame Workshop took to Twitter with a denial — not just of Bert and Ernie's romantic relationship but of the very concept of sexual orientation for puppets.
I'm with them.
It always seemed evident to me that Bert and Ernie were not gay because of the way they dressed. Clearly, neither of them would have fit in on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.(Though Kermit might be the Muppet most likely to be the target of a questionable #MeToo accusation from you-know-who.)
Have I offended you with the non-PC references yet? Christine, how dare you suggest that gay men must be well-dressed? And that not-so-veiled reference to Miss Piggy and the possibility that she'd lie? How dare you! Puppets must be believed!
I'm obviously joking.
Frankly, I find it easier to laugh about the topic than to take it seriously. Of course, Bert and Ernie aren't gay. They're just sweet, nebbish little animated socks who had to split the rent on a fourth-floor walk-up.
But these days, we need to worry about the backstories and implications of everything, from Supreme Court nominees to animated socks.
There is no question that Sesame Street has been on the cutting edge of diversity and inclusivity since the beginning. Over the years, the show included characters that reflect different demographics, such as Julia the autistic Muppet, and Muppets who had accents (other than the Count because there isn't a huge lobby for Transylvanians in the U.S.) and Muppets whose parents were divorced. From the beginning, the human characters, such as Maria and Gordon and Mr. Hooper, were of different ethnicities, and some of the vignettes were in Spanish, which was very exotic for 1969, when the show started. Teaching kids from an early age that everything and everyone has value is, unquestionably, one of the most positive lessons Sesame Street can impart on its viewers.
But Sesame Street is not — and should not be — in the business of helping kids explore their sexuality. It's always been a show geared to the youngest of the young, the toddler set who were too tiny to really understand sex at all. No 3- or 4- or 5-year-old should have to deal with a topic that will cause them decades of angst later in life.
Children shouldn't be forced to acknowledge their sexuality as toddlers. That's not a burden that should be placed on their young shoulders. I call it "burden" not because we should have a negative view of different forms of sexuality, but because children should not have to think about those concepts while trying to figure out what number comes after "7" or what letter comes after "K."
I'm tired of adults turning childhood into some version of The Real Housewives of Sesame Street. Reality is a good thing, but children should be able to suspend it for the first few, sweet years. Making Bert and Ernie's sexual orientation an issue deprives Sesame Street's prime audience of living an unencumbered childhood.
The creator of the Muppets, Frank Oz, has denied that the pair is gay.
The LGBTQ community is angry.
To that I say, just wait. The kids will learn about those other letters soon enough.

It's simple. Either we strengthen the squad with non cup tied NL players or accept we are unlikely to come away from Salford with anything - based on the Oxford game - unless Salford play a second string team. We needed Ramsbottom or Weymouth! League has to be priority and for NL we must must must get some NL quality players in ASAP.
Didn't Jay manage to get players in to keep us up when they were needed? The depth of this screw up wasn't so much last summer (only partly that), the real damage was done at the start of this season with the Dealer! Whilst acknowledging the current issues in getting good NL players in, we are looking for squad players so out of favour, old or inexperienced may be OK as long as they are here for the rest of the season with no recall clause. Got to be better than academy players or ex-Sittingbourne surely? Unless, of course, as you say, the budget is TOTALLY gone, which none of us really know about for sure as our owners keep their cards too close to their chests on that. Sharing is caring.
Lewis and Prestege kept us up in our first season, despite not being first choice in their then clubs. Another option has to be players in higher leagues, not getting game time and looking for some elsewhere. Finney a good example, though Quigley and Mullings clearly not!
We can only hope a couple might be keep to come to Maidstone.
Still cannot forgive Wheeler for shipping out Finney.. imagine how his confidence would have been boosted and how well he would be playing in the new positive culture. Getting rid of Finney arguably the biggest mistake this season in my opinion.
Also, upsetting Worgs and Lewis to the extent that they were ripe for tapping up by Dover was pretty stupid.
It was all more than stupid - with Worgs, Lewis, Seth and maybe even Finney and others (Lozar, Efete?) it was downright vindictive and nasty of the Dealer - withouit even any good footballing reasons for doing it - which is why we all used phrases like "Ripping the heart out of the club". Water under the bridge now, HW has gone, Lewis has already blotted his previously warm reputation with MUFC fans and none of them are coming back - not even a club legend like Worgs, so time to move on and make new heroes out of the current squad and new management with a new heart and hopefully, avoid the drop. I still think - if we aren't totally skint - we need to get NL quality squad back up though - even if they are old, or inexperienced, or out of favour. SW and TL can motivate them to get something out of them I'm sure. Also if they are old, inexperienced or out of favour, they may be cheap? Can we have a whip round with some buckets tomorrow night?
It's really interesting to look back at our previous 2 seasons in NL and think how we managed to survive in those. In 2016/17 as correctly pointed out above it took a major transfusion in Jan '17 bringing in Prestege, Stu Lewis, Sam Yorke & Pigott to give us the quality & fighting spirit to pull through. Jay did a great job to mastermind that transfusion. Who can forget York away in Feb '17, OK we only drew 1 - 1 , but the fight and passion showed by the players was tremendous. In 2017 / 18 we relied so much on Hines & Pigott in the first part of the season and Blair in Spring 2018 to lift us above the line. What does that prove ? Well, we've always had to do some wheeling & dealing to upgrade during the seasons to survive. We aren't sufficiently established in the League ( or wealthy enough ) to start each season with a large enough squad of players to cover every eventuality.
Looking further back, our consecutive promotions were tremendous, but the season where we didn't go up ( 2013 / 14 when we were stuck in the Ryman ) was marked by poor loans in the Spring ( Luke Rooney & Kaiyne Woolery anyone ) which didn't give us a boost.
So, we've always relied on hooking in inspired loanees. If that goes wrong in any given year it's a big problem, and more so in the NL where the standard is higher and much less forgiving.
But have got any money to get them? Or did the dealer bankrupt us there as well?
Agree with all this, but I wish people wouldn't keep labelling our first two seasons as "managing to survive". As I've said a couple of times at least, we actually did very well in our first season, ending up 14th on GD (better GD or another point and we would have been 11th) - pretty good for an 'unexpected' first season in a league as hard as this. And in our second seasons we got as far as 5th before Pigott and Hines went, and, although we finished 19th, one extra win would have given us an identical finish to our first season. And, at no time in either season, did we drop into the relegation zone (as Ant always used to say, "what Great Escape"?).
OK, so both seasons we had to rebuild, but for a club with our resources, that's probably pretty much inevitable - we are always too reliant on loaned-in players, particularly strikers. In fact, if you look at our three season in detail, the one thing that really stands out is our ability (or not) to score goals. In our first season we lost Flish and stopped scoring, and it wasn't until Pigott came in that we picked up again. In our second season, we lost Pigott and Hines and didn't pick up again until we got Turgott. And now this season, we were struggling to score, even with Turgott, and once we lost him, we sank like a Stone (see what I did there?).
The moral of all this? Get a decent striker (or strikers) in, and hang on to him (them). We might have problems in defence at times, or in midfield, but its our problems up front that dictate our performance and our survival. You don't survive by not losing games, you survive (and progress) by winning them - and you can only do that if you score goals.
Not exactly rocket science, makes you wonder why Jay didn't discover the moral of it all !
Of course he did, but goes to show that playing fantasy football is a lot easier than the real thing.
The Wheeler Dealers reign was catastrophic we can all agree, but equally we can be sure that the team that started the season was always going to struggle.
Jay's summer recruitment of new players was disappointing.
Our dynamic duo are doing more than ok but let's not pretend the squad is strong enough to stay up.
Everyone keeps telling me we have a much stronger squad than when Jay was sacked. I am not convinced at all!! This squad isn't good enough to stay up on paper. I agree that 3 good signings could make all the difference. But do we have the funds to do it?
If you listen to Simon Walton's interview from last week he says they are looking to bring a couple more in but they won't just get anybody and they are using all their contacts to find the right players. There are players in the pipeline but nothing is imminent.
Rather bring Coker back than give Fagg more opportunities. Coker will be more of a threat. Still wouldn't surprise me if Cassidy comes back soon.
Rumour circulating today that we have put in an offer for Cassidy to join perm. Money saved on loza's wages and £7k prize money from saturday helping with bid. Watch this space.
Good idea ,it's a long way to the toilet and a nearby bucket would be heaven.

I love to create characters and build them a world to exist in. I think the day I realised that I could create anything, make any kind of world, make snow when I long for it, create a sausage dog when I want one but can't have one, make a little person with feelings and dreams and things that make them happy, was one of the most magical moments I have ever had. What a wonderful thing, to bring new worlds and characters to life!

Q: React State update a nested array with objects based on the id when iterated I have an react state with objects/array that is filled, but also then later I want to edit text inputs and edit the related fields on object also, i found no solutions until now.
So this is my state for example:
const [data, setData] = useState({
    working_hours: [
      {
        id: 1,
        description: 'Random Text',
        price: 100,

      },
      {
        id: 2,
        description: 'Text Random',
        price: 100,
      },
    ]
  });

Here is my Jsx:
{data.working_hours.map(item =>
<>
  <input type={text} value={item.description}
   onChange={(e) => handleChange(e)} />

  <input type={text} value={item.price}
   onChange={(e) => handleChange(e)} />
</>
)}

Here is what I tried:
function handleChange(e){
 const value = e.target.value;
 setData({...data, [...data.working_hours, e.target.value]})
}

A: You need to pass additional parameters to your handleChange as item ID which you want to update and property name because without these you will not be able to identify which property to update dynamically. This way you can use the same handleChange for multiple inputs.
See below code -
function handleChange(e, itemId, property) {
    const value = e.target.value;
    //copying data to temp variable so that we do not directly mutate original state
    const tempWorkingHours = [...data.working_hours];
    //findIndex to find location of item we need to update
    let index = tempWorkingHours.findIndex(item => item.id == itemId);
    // -1 check to see if we found that object in working hours
    if(index != -1){
       tempWorkingHours[index] = {
         ...tempWorkingHours[index], //keeping existing values in object
         [property]: value  //here property can be "price" or "description"
       }
    }

    setData({ ...data, working_hours: tempWorkingHours })
}

{
    data.working_hours.map(item =>
        <>
            <input type={text} value={item.description}
                onChange={(e) => handleChange(e, item.id, "description")} />

            <input type={text} value={item.price}
                onChange={(e) => handleChange(e, item.id, "price")} />
        </>
    )
}

A: When you want to update the state of objects in the nested array, you must identify these objects and the property you want to update. Thus your handler should look like this.
function handleChange(index, property, value){
   // ...
}

The setData function will only trigger a rerender if you pass it a new object. Thus you should create a copy.
function handleChange(index, property, value) {
  const new_working_hours = [...data.working_hours]; // copy the array
  const new_working_hour = { ...data.working_hours[index] }; // copy the array item to change

  new_working_hour[property] = value; // set the new value
  new_working_hours[index] = new_working_hour; // assign the new item to the copied array

  setData({ working_hours: new_working_hours }); // return a new data object
}

Here is a working example. Click Run code snippet below.

const { useState } = React;

const App = () => {
  const [data, setData] = useState(initialState);

  function handleChange(index, property, value) {
    const new_working_hours = [...data.working_hours]; // copy the array
    const new_working_hour = { ...data.working_hours[index] }; // copy the array item to change

    new_working_hour[property] = value; // set the new value
    new_working_hours[index] = new_working_hour; // assign the new item to the copied array

    setData({ working_hours: new_working_hours }); // return a new data object
  }

  return data.working_hours.map((item, index) => (

      <input
        type="text"
        value={item.description}
        onChange={(e) => handleChange(index, "description", e.target.value)}
      />

      <input
        type="text"
        value={item.price}
        onChange={(e) => handleChange(index, "price", e.target.value)}
      />

  ));
};

const initialState = {
  working_hours: [
    {
      id: 1,
      description: "Random Text",
      price: 100
    },
    {
      id: 2,
      description: "Text Random",
      price: 100
    }
  ]
};

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("root"));

A: function handleChange(e){
 const value = e.target.value;
 const newData = {
   ...data,
   working_hours: [
     ...(data?.working_hours ? data.working_hours : {}),
     value
   ]
 };
 setData(newData);
}

Here is a simulation

let data = {
 working_hours: [
  {
    id: 1,
    field: "test",
  }
 ],
};

function handleChange(e){
 const value = e.target.value;
 const newData = {
   ...data,
   working_hours: [
     ...(data?.working_hours ? data.working_hours : {}),
     value
   ]
 };
 console.log('newData', newData);
}

const event = {
 target: {
  value: { id: 2, field: "test2" },
 }
};

handleChange(event);

A: The problem is that you are missing the part of indicating which object to update,
you can do so by passing the index of the array or by the id that the object has.
for example:
function handleChange(e){
 const value = e.target.value;
 const tempWorkingHours = data.working_hours.map((item) => {
    if (item.id === value.id) {
      return {
         ...item,
          price: value
      }
   }
   return item;
}
 setData({...data, working_hours: tempWorkingHours })
}

in that way, you are using a map to loop over the array and find the item you want to change(but by the temp variable that holds a copy of the data to avoid mutating the state).
You can also pass the index to the handle change function:
{data.working_hours.map((item, index) =>
<>
  <input type={text} value={item.description}
   onChange={(e) => handleChange(e)} />

  <input type={text} value={item.price}
   onChange={(e,index) => handleChange(e, index)} />
</>
)}

And then in the handleChange use the index to access the relevant index to change the array. let me know if you want me to explain more with modification of your code, but I think the way I explain above with the id solution is nice.
Edit- the index version :
     function handleChange(e, index) {
      const value = e.target.value;
      const tempWorkingHours = [...data.working_hours];
      tempWorkingHours[index].price = value;
      setData({...data, working_hours: tempWorkingHours});
}

Fixed the first example, the return moved outside the if statement in case it's not the relevant id we want to modify.
Read more about forms from react's official docs:
https://reactjs.org/docs/forms.html
It doesn't matter if you are using function components to get the point, its the same. Only the way You are updating the state is with
useState.
  class Reservation extends React.Component {
      constructor(props) {
        super(props);
        this.state = {
          isGoing: true,
          numberOfGuests: 2
        };

        this.handleInputChange = this.handleInputChange.bind(this);
      }

      handleInputChange(event) {
        const target = event.target;
        const value = target.type === 'checkbox' ? target.checked : target.value;
        const name = target.name;

        this.setState({
          [name]: value
        });
      }

      render() {
        return (
          <form>

              Is going:
              <input
                name="isGoing"
                type="checkbox"
                checked={this.state.isGoing}
                onChange={this.handleInputChange} />

              Number of guests:
              <input
                name="numberOfGuests"
                type="number"
                value={this.state.numberOfGuests}
                onChange={this.handleInputChange} />

          </form>
        );
      }
    }

A: change elements
{data.working_hours.map(item =>
<>
  <input name='description' type={text} value={item.description}
   onChange={(e) => handleChange(e,item.id)} />

  <input name='price' type={text} value={item.price}
   onChange={(e) => handleChange(e,item.id)} />
</>
)}

change handleChange

function handleChange(e,id){
 const value = e.target.value;
 const name= e.target.name;
 var dataitemIndex = data.working_hours.findIndex(x=>x.id == id);
data.working_hours[dataitemIndex] = {...data.working_hours[dataitemIndex],[event.target.name]: event.target.value};
 setData(data);
}

STAY ON THE SAME PAGE…..
BRENDA HOLLOWAY was (indeed is) a Motown legend – revered for her hits like 'Every Little Bit Hurts', 'You've Made Me So Very Happy' and the still fabulous 'When I'm Gone'.
Ms Holloway has worked steadily since the golden days of Motown – recording, touring and developing new artists and amongst those new performers is Alabama's RAGS MOODY III. Inveterate sleeve note readers might recognize Mr M's name from his contribution to PRESTON GLASS' latest album 'Love & Compassion'. He delivered the track 'Family Man'.
Right after that, Glass paired Rags with his mentor, Brenda, and the result is the simple, sweet old school duet ballad, 'Same Page' which has just been released on David Nathan's SoulMusic Records in association with Platinum Garage Recordings.
'Same Page' speaks of a different age – the age of Marvin and Tammi of Peaches and Herb et al….a simpler time when songs were less gimmicky and, maybe, more heartfelt.
Brenda Holloway & Rags Moody III- 'Same Page' is out now

Оперная прима Лора Клейкомб взяла в Москве самые высокие ноты – http://www.newizv.ru
Angry song of the nightingale
Opera prima Laura Claycomb in Moscow took the highest notes

American Laura Claycomb, who 12 years ago won the Russian capital, the second prize in the Tchaikovsky came to us a second time. On Monday, before the performance in the Tchaikovsky Hall, the singer has carefully studied the program of performers here, Korean Sumi Jo and our Anna Netrebko and included in her repertoire very different works. Even a fragment of the finest roles of Gilda's "Rigoletto" (Claycomb sang it with Dmitri Hvorostovsky), she deferred for encore.
Usually each singer has her own specialization. Those who perform Wagner, do not take for Baroque opera, and vice versa. There is a prima donna, just singing bel canto opera or exclusively contemporary music. Claycomb perfectly performs music of different styles – from Handel to Stravinsky and Bernstein. At the concert, sounded a lot of rare, long-not-performed works: Song of the Nightingale of the opera by Stravinsky, the Fire aria from the opera Ravel's "L'Enfant et les Sortilêges," Amina's scene from Bellini's opera "La Sonnambula." The audience were in the thick of the creative process: the singer has included in concert fragments of roles that she has recently started working on, among them was the romance of Corinna from Rossini's "Il Viaggio a Reims". Claycomb coped brilliantly with all musical curiosities, in the first part of the twentieth century music sung in the second – Italian classics and took outrageous high notes so easily that it left the audience breathless.
Theodore Kurenzis, conducted the orchestra in the evening, cemented his reputation as a specialist in contemporary music, and behaved with gallantry: a solo dancer who then manifests itself in a solo, then "goes into the shadows", carefully maintaining the ballerina. Vocal arias alternated with symphonic fragments. They ran Kurenzis' orchestra in his usual expressive manner, moving at the control and vigorously waving his arms. But as soon as Claycomb got onstage, the conductor limited the sharpness of his gestures so as not to distract attention from the audience.
And he did it for a reason. The singer proved that in addition to the vocal talent, she also owns acting skill. And she can play anyone – from said Nightingale to mad Ophelia. Effect completed by the charm, femininity, beautiful figure and a shock of red curls that Claycomb had collected in a knot, then dissolved on the shoulders. She has twice changed the outfit, playing contemporary music in a light dress with a fluffy skirt and sequined bodice, and the classics of Italian – a brown dress with sparkles, stylized contemporary fashion of the early twentieth century.

The Perfect Jumper system provides everything a player needs to develop into the complete shooter -- from free throws to lay-ups, jump shots, and 3-pointers. The Full System includes all four components of the Perfect Jumper system, allowing players to practice each of the core shots in the game. Practicing with the Perfect Jumper system will keep your training routine fresh, fun and progressive -- but more importantly, it will turn you into a confident and disciplined shooter from anywhere on the court.
The Free Throw King trains players to develop the correct trajectory, arc, and line in their free throws. The front flap is designed to hide the front of the rim, forcing the shooter to get the ball 'up and over' the rim. The front flap forces the player to use the correct arc to the shot and develops the correct muscle memory to stay consistent. The vertical side arms provide a visual aid for proper shot alignment. The combination of proper trajectory, arc and line help players hit free throws confidently and consistently.
The Perimeter Pro teaches the fundamentals of shooting with the proper arc, developing depth perception and reinforcing muscle memory. The Perimeter Pro teaches basketball players to shoot with a higher arc to clear the front rim. Since players should actually be aiming for an unseen point in the middle of the net, Perimeter Pro is cone-shaped to give players a target to hit. In addition, Perimeter Pro reduces the rim size to only 15", developing shot accuracy. The Perimeter Pro works for almost all shots, from the lay-up to the jump shot.
The Baseline Bomber is an excellent training tool for the baseline jump shot. Without the sight of the backboard, it's no wonder why the baseline jump shot is one of the toughest in basketball. The Baseline Bomber is designed with two flaps that train players to get the ball up and over the rim, providing instant feedback that teaches players the correct arc of their shot with respect to distance from the goal. While the Baseline Bomber teaches players the proper touch and trajectory from all positions on the court, it is a particularly effective tool to develop consistency from the 3-point line.
The Rebound Ring develops shooting perfection by reducing the rim opening down to 14". It is designed with a flat ring, rather than the cone-shaped ring of the Perimeter Pro, to train players' depth perception. The Rebound Ring helps players maintain the arc of their shot and further develops muscle memory and hand/eye coordination. Players who use the Rebound Ring find that after training with a rim reduced by 4", hitting shots during gametime is a breeze.

Audit: Department of Transportation vastly underestimated costs
Scott Bauer and Todd Richmond, AP writers
Featured,	Featured News,	News,	Wisconsin January 28,2017
Major highway projects in Wisconsin over the past decade have cost twice as much as the Department of Transportation initially estimated, thanks in large part to not accounting for inflation, according to a highly critical audit released on Jan. 26.
The much-anticipated Legislative Audit Bureau report comes as the agency faces a nearly $1 billion budget shortfall and Gov. Scott Walker and Republicans who control the Legislature are sparring over how to solve it.
The audit found that 19 major highway projects completed in the past decade cost a total of $1.5 billion — twice as much as the $772 million original price tag. It also said the cost of 16 ongoing major highway projects more than doubled to a total of $5.8 billion — increasing by a staggering $3.1 billion — from the time they were approved through August 2016.
Wisconsin's roads have consistently deteriorated over the past five years and are in "considerably" worse shape than roads in six other Midwestern states, the report said. The proportion of state highways in good condition decreased from 53.5 percent in 2010 to 41.0 percent in 2015, the audit said.
Walker, who canceled a series of public events scheduled for Jan. 26 due to illness, has insisted that he won't raise the gas tax or vehicle registration fees to plug the transportation budget shortfall to pay for ongoing road projects. His plan is to borrow about half a billion dollars and delay about that much in ongoing major highway work.
Assembly Republicans are calling for $300 million in transportation-related tax and fee increases along with unspecified tax cuts elsewhere.
Walker's spokesman Tom Evenson said the report doesn't change the governor's position.
"The bottom line is, we shouldn't even be thinking about raising the gas tax or fees until we find every last cost savings at DOT, and the audit shows we can find more savings," Evenson said. "We welcome the opportunity to deliver services taxpayers expect at a price they can afford."
Democrats seized on the audit, saying it shows that Walker and Republicans — who have controlled state government since 2011 — have failed on roads, created a crisis, and put drivers' safety at risk.
"The Republican leadership's neglect of our roads is as inexcusable as it is unacceptable," said Democratic Assembly Minority Leader Peter Barca. "Our crumbling infrastructure is costing taxpayers and hurting our economy."
While many Republicans said the report was helpful in showing where Audit: Department of Transportation vastly underestimates costs can save money, Audit Committee co-chair Sen. Rob Cowles was more critical.
"(The audit) will be devastating to the management of the DOT," Cowles told WHBY on Jan 26. "They have to do this whole thing differently."
He plans to hold a public hearing on the report within the next two weeks.
The audit said the Department of Transportation hasn't consistently used performance measures to improve its operations and can do more to control costs. It also doesn't sufficiently take into account how inflation and unexpected cost overruns affect the price tag of projects, the audit said.
Cowles said the underestimated costs made the projects more attractive to lawmakers, thus increasing the chance of the Legislature approving them. He stopped short of saying department officials were intentionally low-balling bids to get approval.
The audit bureau recommended that the WISDOT use its money more effectively and improve how it manages highway planning, engineering, construction and maintenance.
Agency Secretary Dave Ross, the former mayor of Superior who has been on the job less than a month, said the audit "provides a road map to improved efficiency and transparency at the DOT." Ross said he'll work to implement recommendations for improvement. Ross replaced Mark Gottlieb, who resigned as secretary three weeks ago.

Iron sulfide may be keeping Mercury's core toasty and its alive magnetic field
NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft has detected magnetic signals in Mercury's surface rocks, and even stronger ones in lower orbit. Red and orange in this image represent the direction of the field lines pointing off-planet, while blue and purple lines point inward.

Mercury's core may be wearing a metal jacket. New experiments suggest the planet's innards stay warm thanks to an insulating layer of iron sulfide, which could help to explain how the small world has held onto its magnetic field.
Rocky planets get their magnetic fields from the churning motion of liquid metals in a gooey core, a process called convection (SN: 9/4/15). But smaller worlds like the moon and Mars seem to have cooled down quickly, freezing their cores and shutting off their magnetic fields (SN: 9/7/15).
Mercury, however, has defied expectations. "Many people thought it was a dead planet," says mineral physicist Geeth Manthilake of Clermont Auvergne University in Clermont-Ferrand, France.
But in the 1970s, NASA's Mariner 10 spacecraft found that Mercury, the puniest planet in our solar system, generated a weak magnetic field. That field — only about 1 percent of the strength of Earth's magnetic field — has probably been active for as many as 3.9 billion years, almost the age of the solar system (SN: 5/7/15).
The question of what kept Mercury's core warm has long puzzled scientists. Now, Manthilake and colleagues have proposed an explanation: The liquid part of the core is surrounded by a layer of iron sulfide that lets heat out much more slowly than previously assumed, the team reports August 21 in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets.
"Based on lab experiments, we got some data to explain how actually you can generate such a low magnetic field and sustain it for such a long time," Manthilake says.
Mercury's interior is probably layered: a solid inner core, a molten outer core and perhaps a layer of iron sulfide at the boundary between the core and the mantle.
NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center
The team measured how efficiently an alloy made of iron and sulfur can carry electricity, and by extension, heat. Previous work suggests that Mercury's core has a solid deep interior, plus a liquid outer layer made mostly of iron, sulfur and silicon (SN: 4/22/19). But like oil and water, those elements don't mix thoroughly. As Mercury cooled, the more-buoyant iron-sulfur compound would have separated and floated to the top of the core, forming a separate layer.
The researchers put a few milligrams of iron with varying concentrations of sulfur in a high temperature and pressure chamber at the SOLEIL Synchrotron facility in Gif-sur-Yvette, France. Using a beam of X-rays, the team measured the exact composition of the iron sulfide alloy as it formed inside the chamber.
When the amount of sulfur in the iron was increased, the metal let out less heat by up to a few orders of magnitude. So iron sulfide at the top Mercury's core could act like a lid on a pot, keeping heat inside, the team argues.
Researchers put small amounts of iron sulfide in this high pressure and temperature chamber at the SOLEIL Synchrotron in France to test the metal's properties.Geeth Manthilake, SOLEIL Synchroton
The lab result on its own doesn't solve the mystery of Mercury's magnetic field, says planetary scientist Steven Hauck of Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, who was not involved in the new work. For one thing, the conductivity measurements disagree with previous measurements of iron sulfide's conductive prowess. Manthilake thinks earlier experiments that didn't track the metal's composition with X-rays could have unwittingly included some oxygen in the metal, which would have affected the results. But it's not clear that was the case.
Scientists also don't know how much sulfur is in Mercury's iron sulfide layer, or how thick that layer is. Future missions to the planet, such as the European Space Agency's BepiColombo spacecraft arriving at Mercury in 2025, may help nail down those details.
But the new work offers "an important contribution" to the discussion, Hauck says. "Understanding the thermal conductivity of the core is a really important piece of info to be able to make future steps."

Portugal: Rebounding from a Smackdown
By erickrakauer | June 19, 2014
This article first appeared in Soccerly.com
As far as video game opponents go, Pete, my close friend and former roommate, is the worst.
Our gaming rivalry has gone on for a few years, and as difficult as it is to admit, he has recently been pretty much unbeatable. As if that weren't bad enough, Pete also has the uncanny ability of taunting someone to a boiling point.
His favorite term is "smackdown," and he will repeat it ad nauseam, with slight variations in tone and volume.
Needless to say, I've heard it a lot.
"SMACKDOWNS ARE INVARIABLY ACCOMPANIED BY AN ALMOST INSATIABLE DESIRE FOR REVENGE, AND REVENGE PREVENTS ONE FROM FOCUSING ON SUCCESSFUL REBOUNDING STRATEGIES."
Perhaps, the most devastating consequence of being at the receiving end of one of Pete's smackdowns is the inability to rebound effectively. Smackdowns are invariably accompanied by an almost insatiable desire for revenge, and revenge prevents one from focusing on successful rebounding strategies. Thus, smackdown is usually followed by…smackdown.
You may be wondering what this small and painful anecdote has to do with Portugal.
Simply put, Portugal suffered a German smackdown on Monday, and Portuguese fans better hope that the last few days have done enough to lessen that hunger for revenge, lest Sunday's matchup with the U.S. goes terribly wrong.
The issue here is purely psychological – as I've been reminding everyone who cares to listen – and in footballing terms, the Portuguese aren't exactly known for their mental fortitude (something that the Special One, Jose Mourinho, intimated when he claimed that Portugal never beat the big boys).
I can already hear the typical angry responses (from Portuguese fans only) that include the most typical of Portuguese football clichés:
"Portugal always does better when their backs are to the wall."
Actually, that's a general cliché, which like all clichés, only comes to fruition every so often.
I will concede that it could become a reality on Sunday, and the Portuguese could very well take the Americans to the cleaners. Nevertheless, there are a few causes for concern.
"THE UNDERESTIMATION OF A GOOD U.S. TEAM COULD HAVE DEVASTATING CONSEQUENCES."
The most worrying is the previously mentioned desire to avenge the defeat in Salvador, which when compounded with the underestimation of a good U.S. team, could have devastating consequences.
Given that nothing other than a win will do for Portugal, it is not unreasonable to believe that the Portuguese will begin an all-out assault on Tim Howard's goal from the first whistle, as opposed to their more measured (and sometimes infuriating) attacking approach. That could work – an early goal would alleviate pressure – but it could also backfire, as offensive assaults usually mean defensive sacrifices, and the U.S. has proven an adept counterattacking team, even without Landon Donovan. Not to mention that Portugal's defensive positioning against Germany was appalling at best.
An untimely tournament ending injury to Fabio Coentrão is almost as problematic. After Cristiano Ronaldo, Coentrão is the most important player in Portugal's set-up, not only for his own attacking prowess – which widens the field and spreads out opponents – but also because he is often the catalyst to Ronaldo's best performances. The full-back's ability to make regular forays down the left wing allows Ronaldo more freedom to attack through the middle, and the keen understanding both players developed at Real Madrid translates to the national team. Additionally, Coentrão's capacity to quickly cover ground, and his defensive doggedness, make up for Ronaldo's defensive laziness.
No matter who replaces the left-back, Portugal's verticality will surely suffer.
Finally, how can Cristiano Ronaldo's knee not be concerning? The frequent images of the superstar icing his thoroughly scrutinized joint have kept an entire nation on edge, even though there was no evidence of it hindering his already below-par performance against the Germans (or was that the reason?).
Over the past few weeks Portuguese players have devoted much of their press conferences to answering questions about their totemic teammate. Their answers have almost always been the same (coached, if you like). "Ronaldo is at 100%," "Ronaldo is ready to play," and "the ice is precautionary," are the most regurgitated.
"PORTUGAL IS NOT A ONE-MAN TEAM, BUT IT IS A TEAM ALL TOO DEPENDENT ON ONE MAN"
However, one wonders how it's possible that confidence has not been shaken, no matter what anyone says. Portugal is not a one-man team, but it is a team all too dependent on one man, and not knowing if he's at his best has serious psychological implications. Walking onto the field with a healthy reigning Ballon d'Or winner has a way of inspiring confidence while intimidating opponents. Having a wounded Cristiano is also better than not having a Cristiano, but it does chasten the spirit.
So, where does this all leave Portugal?
Definitely, not dead in the water. The Portuguese are still superior to the United States in almost every way.
Plus, Portugal can still control its own outcome, of course.
But taking comfort in the, "our destiny is still in our hands" credo, has a tinge of wishful thinking. And wishful thinking does not win a match.

Excess fat gradually causes the body to lose its responsiveness to insulin, the hormone that mediates efficient blood glucose uptake into cells in a healthy human being. Becoming resistant to the effect of insulin reduces the body`s ability to maintain normal blood glucose levels. Consequently, many overweight and obese people whose glucose levels appear normal are already in the process of developing prediabetes.
Glycemicon's lead product, THBA is naturally occurring. It optimises body fat tissue maintaining normal nutrient storage, insulin sensitivity and blood glucose homeostasis. Our aim is therefore to promote healthy fat and normal blood glucose by optimising the functionality of the body fat tissue.


Many schools require students write reports on animals as a standard part of the curriculum. There are literally thousands of different types of animals that you can write about. Fortunately, writing a report about animals requires only a few simple guidelines.
Decide what animal you will write about. You'll be spending a lot of time thinking about the animal you select, so make sure you choose one that you will enjoy! If your teacher has given you a range of animals to choose from, pick one that you feel interested in.
Choose an animal about which you can find a good deal of information.
Read as much about the animal as you can, either online or in books and other resources. Encyclopedias are a great resource for learning about animals.
Research topics related to animal's name and appearance. Your report should include facts about your animal's name. Most animals have a Latin name in addition to a more common name. Sometimes an animal is known by one name in English, and other names in other languages. Include this information in your report.
Describing what your animal looks like will be an important part of your report. You might want to know if your animal changes appearance over the course of its lifetime. Does the male look different than the female? If so, how?
Include details about how the animal's appearance might be an adaptation to its environment. For example, polar bears developed white fur because they live on glaciers. Now that glaciers are melting, the bears' camouflage is losing its effectiveness.
Know animal's lifespan and breeding pattern. Knowing how long your animal tends to live under natural conditions will be good to include in your report. Whether the animal lives for hundreds of years (like a giant tortoise) or has a lifespan of only 24 hours (like the mayfly), this fact will be important to include.
Including information on the breeding habits of your animal will be part of showing your understanding. Does your animal have a mating season? If so, when is it?
Perhaps your animal reproduces by itself. Any information related to its breeding will be important to include in your report.
Identify animal's habitat and range. Where does your animal live? Does it move around a great deal during the course of its lifetime, or does it live in a limited range? It will help your reader to know more about your animal if you include this information in your report.
Knowing where your animal lives might have implications for other parts of your report. For example, if your animal migrates annually from the Arctic tundra to South America, it probably requires water stops along the way. You might want to include any information about pollution in the ponds, lakes and rivers along its migration route.
Learning about the animal's home will help you understand the animal better.
Learn about animal's diet. Is your animal a carnivore, or meat-eater? Does your animal only eat plants? Or does he eat a combination of foods, depending on what he can find.
Notice the way an animal's diet affects his habitat, and the other way around.
Is there anything surprising in the animal's diet? For instance, the Great Blue Whale is the largest mammal in the world, yet its diet is almost entirely comprised of tiny fish only 1-2 centimeters long.
Notice animal's behavior. What are some interesting patterns of behavior that you've learned about your animal? Does it have different behavior in different parts of its life? If your animal is most active at night, write about this. If it spends much of its life dormant (not moving), this is interesting to know.
The behavior of your animal likely affects its habitat, living area, and eating patterns.
It's good to show adaptive reasons for the animal's behavior if they're known. Continue to read and research until you find as many of the answers to your questions as possible.
Get to know your animal's enemies. What are your animal's predators? What animals eat or otherwise kill the animal you are researching? How have the animal's predators resulted in adaptations, such as camouflage or development of protective shells?
A large predator in many animals' environment is mankind. Explore the ways that human activity affects your animal.
Is this animal in danger of extinction? If so, what has happened to make this the case?
Organize your research. By this time, you'll have gathered a lot of information about your animal. Make sure that it's all written legibly or typed so that you can read it. You'll have to make sure that you've connected the information you've gathered to the sources from which it came.
You might use handwritten index cards to keep track of your information, or you can use computer apps or programs such as Evernote.
If you use index cards, you can easily sort them into topics.
If there are research facts that don't easily fit into topics, set them aside. When you're done, return to this pile. Carefully go through the stack, and see if there is anything that they have in common. If not, it's okay to have a topic you can label for yourself as "Etc."
Decide what to focus on. Your report may be a generalized report that includes many different aspects about the animal. You can also write a more focused report, looking at particular aspects of your animal's life, habitat, breeding patterns, possible extinction, etc.
Your teacher's assignment will likely supply more information on how to focus your paper.
No matter what sort of focus you bring to your report, it should begin with an introduction to your animal. The appearance and name should be in the introduction.
Choose what sort of paper you will write. Think about the kind of class you're in. Are you writing your animal report for a general science class? If so, you may want to keep your report to an descriptive paper about your animal. If you're writing for a class in environmental science, you probably want to include more information about the threats to the animals' habitat or changes in environment. You may wish to write an analysis essay, a persuasive paper, or an argumentative essay.
For any style of writing, you'll need to include your research results. However, the research that you include may vary depending on the way in which you organize your paper.
Consider using a graphic organizer to help you.
Create an outline. Once you've completed your initial organization of research, you're ready to make an outline of your paper. All reports should include an introduction, followed by the report body, and closed with a brief summary and conclusion. Whether your animal report is 5-7 paragraphs (the standard length for learning report-writing) or 20 pages (an undergraduate thesis), this format should apply.
A topic outline doesn't have to be made up of complete sentences, but your intentions should be easily understandable.
Use your sorted research notes to help you write your outline. For example, if you have a topic called "Habitat" for your animal, make notes about the habitat location, environmental needs, environmental threats, and the way the animal interacts with its habitat for your outline.
Have someone check your outline. Having a teacher, a parent, or a friend check your outline will often help you know if you've gone off track before you start the task of writing your report. If you need more information on how to make an outline, check with your teacher.
You may wish to include your thesis sentence in your outline. A thesis sentence is like a topic sentence for your animal report. It sums up your idea about the full report.
Make sure that your proofreader can tell the purpose of your report. What were the words that the teacher used in her assignment? Make sure your report is on the right topic.
Does your outline include an introduction, a body, and a closing? This is a good time to check and make sure all your report's parts are present.
Write a rough draft of your report. Your first draft, or "rough draft" of your final report is not meant to be perfect. Just do the best you can at including all the information you found about your animal when doing your research. Write one sentence at a time, and follow your outline.
Make sure your paper is the right length. If you're supposed to turn in a 10-page paper, your rough draft should be about that long.
Keep your notes organized as you write. Make sure that you note all sources.
Check your spelling. When your draft is complete, go back through and check your spelling. If you have spellcheck on your computer, turn this on and check all words that are highlighted as "misspelled".
Notice that your word may need to be added to your word program's dictionary if it doesn't recognize it. Sometimes words that appear misspelled to your computer are actually spelled correctly.
Look for habitually misspelled words. Everyone has certain words that she regularly misspells. If you know your own habits, you'll be more likely to avoid repeating your errors.
Correct your grammar. Your computer's spellcheck doesn't check for grammar or parts of speech. When words have multiple spellings, such as they're, their or there, you'll need to identify the correct word by grammatical context.
Read your paper aloud. You'll often notice out-of-place words or typos when reading aloud.
Make sure you've left enough time to carefully go through your paper before turning it in.
Write your final version. Writing your final draft means going back and rewriting the rough draft of your paper, making all the changes in spelling and grammar that you've noticed. Follow the rules of good writing. Use active verbs, and don't make your sentences too long.
Watch for fragment sentences, run-on sentences, and other common errors of writing.
Remember the tip of reading out loud. If you're not sure if a sentence is good or not, read it out loud. Your ear may be able to tell you what your eye can't.
Take a break as you need to.
Include your sources and references. Your sources and references will all be available from your research notes. Don't forget to transfer these references to your final paper. Giving credit to your research sources is an important part of completing your animal report.
If you are at a university, your teacher may want you to use a certain kind of citation, such as Chicago or MLA format. Make sure you know what's expected from your teacher.
If you aren't expected to use any particular format, just make sure that you're including the author's name, the title of the source you are using, and the date it was published.
Proofread your final report. Once you've completed the writing, take a break to rest your eyes. Then, return and proofread to make sure that you've written the best paper you can write.
Have you included the basics? Is your name on the report? If your teacher requires page numbers, are they included? Is your report legible?
Try to avoid proofreading at the very last minute before you must turn in your paper. Leave yourself time to make corrections if necessary.
Have a friend or your parent read it for you, if you have time. Sometimes another person will see errors you've missed.
How do I start off an animal report?
Write a general overview of what your report will be about, like the animal's habitat, diet or other characteristics.
How do I write a paragraph to sum up my animal in a report?
How do I write a report on a horse?
Be creative. Don't be afraid to think outside of the box.
Ask your teacher questions as you work. She'll be able to help you.
Be careful not to copy sentences straight from your reading. This is plagiarizing, and it's against the law.
Make sure you're following your teacher's directions for writing your report. This article provides only general directions. Individual assignments may vary.

Preserve History
The 525-acre McKinley Woods was acquired between 1931 and 2004.
The preserve is part of the Des Plaines River preservation system, which conserves more than 2,400 acres.
Prior to the District's acquisition of the land, it was used as a Civilian Conservation Corps camp, and the Frederick's Grove Shelter is a remnant of that camp.
Frederick's Grove is one of two access areas to the preserve. The other access area is Kerry Sheridan Grove in Channahon.
PLAN YOUR ADVENTURE ON THIS PRESERVE'S INTERACTIVE MAP

McKinley Woods protects a diversity of habitats, including forest, prairie, wetland and a portion of the Des Plaines River.
Wildlife found at the preserve includes the queen snake and 99 bird species, such as the cedar waxwing, bald eagle and purple martin.
The preserve is also home to a variety of plant species, including redbud, blue ash and chinquapin oak.
The site is managed with invasive species control, prescribed burning and habitat restoration to protect and enhance its natural resources. Learn more about the District's land management activities.
Amenities and Activities
Frederick's Grove features 2.35 miles of natural surface trails, ideal for hiking/running. Of these, 1.59 miles are also ideal for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. A portion of the Riverbend Lookout Trail – .36 mile of the total .54-mile loop – has been closed due to unsafe conditions caused by dead and dying ash trees along the path. The section of the path that remains open allows access to the Upland Trail, a .26-mile loop.
Frederick's Grove also provides access to the Illinois Department of Natural Resources' 61.5-mile, crushed limestone I&M Canal State Trail.
Frederick's Grove offers four primitive campsites for family or group rental, with a permit capacity of six people per site. The campsites are on flat terrain in full shade to full sun and provide access to grills, fire pits and latrines. Two of the campsites are on natural surface terrain and two are on concrete pads and are ADA accessible. The campsites are unavailable for rental from November 1 through April 15 each year for safety and maintenance. Learn more about camping permits, fees and equipment rental.
Picnicking
Frederick's Grove offers two picnic shelters for rental: Frederick's Grove Shelter (permit capacity of 30 people) and Riverbend Lookout Shelter (permit capacity of 50 people). Frederick's Grove Shelter is unavailable for rental from November 1 through April 15 each year for safety and maintenance. Learn more about picnic permits and fees.
Frederick's Grove offers access to shoreline fishing on the Des Plaines River and I&M Canal. State and District regulations apply. Learn more about fishing in the forest preserves.

Adaptation to local environments will be a challenging issue for forests in the face of global climate changes. While other organisms have the choice of migrating to a better suited habitat, the current rate of climate change can be too fast for forest trees, which will have the only choice of locally adapting. Therefore, the knowledge of genetic adaptive traits is an essential support to actions in forest management and conservation.
Many approaches are now available to do this, from "classical" studies of association between some loci and environmental variables, carried also to a genomic scale by the use of SNPs arrays, to more sophisticated modeling, such as those used in landscape genetics/genomics, to Bayesian analyses aimed at unravelling the confounding effect of demography and population genetic structure, so as not to impact on the assessment of adaptive variation.
Further, information on the relationship between genetic variation and environmental variation is necessary to implement bioclimatic models to simulate how the present genetic variation will be shaped by a changing environment and to identify current and projected distribution of forest species. This aspect will also benefit from the validation of genetic and phenotypic associations under controlled environments.
The information obtained from different approaches can lead to the identification of genotypes adapted to future climatic conditions, to select seed sources and populations for planning sound conservation strategies like assisted migration or assisted range expansion, to help forest tree species to cope with fast-changing climatic conditions and prevent localized declines.
The threat to forests represented by imminent climate changes requires immediate countermeasures; because of this, we deem that a journal issue devoted to "Climate-Related Adaptive Genetic Variation and Population Structure in Forests" will be of general interest to many colleagues.

Trees are a keystone species in many ecosystems and a critical component of ecological restoration. Understanding their capacity to respond to climate change is essential for conserving biodiversity and determining appropriate restoration seed sources. Patterns of local adaptation to climate between populations within a species can inform such conservation decisions and are often investigated from either a quantitative trait or molecular genetic basis. Here, we present findings from a combined analysis of phenotype (quantitative genetic analysis), genotype (single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) trait associations), and climate associations. We draw on the strength of this combined approach to investigate pre-existing climate adaptation and its genetic basis in Eucalyptus microcarpa (Grey box), an important tree for ecological restoration in south-eastern Australia. Phenotypic data from a 26-year-old provenance trial demonstrated significant genetic variation in growth and leaf traits at both the family and provenance levels. Growth traits were only associated with temperature, whilst leaf traits were associated with temperature, precipitation and aridity. Genotyping of 40 putatively adaptive SNPs from previous genome-wide analyses identified 9 SNPs associated with these traits. Drawing on previous SNP–climate association results, several associations were identified between all three comparisons of phenotype, genotype and climate. By combining phenotypic with genomic analyses, these results corroborate genomic findings and enhance understanding of climate adaptation in E. microcarpa. We discuss the implication of these results for conservation management and restoration under climate change. Full article

Research Highlights: Sequence phylogeny, genome organisation, gene structure, conserved motifs, promoter cis-element and expression profiling of poplar NACs related to salt stress were detected. In addition, expression of two salt-induced NACs was analysed. Background and Objectives: NAC transcription factor (TF) proteins are involved in a wide range of functions during plant development and stress-related endurance processes. To understand the function of Populus NAC TFs in salt stress tolerance, we characterised the structure and expression profile of a total of 289 NAC members. Materials and Methods: Sequence phylogeny, genome organisation, gene structure, motif composition and promoter cis-element were detected using bioinformatics. The expression pattern of Populus NAC TFs under salt stress was also detected using RNA-Seq and RT-qPCR. Results: Synteny analysis showed that 46 and 37 Populus NAC genes were involved in whole-genome duplication and tandem duplication events, respectively. The expression pattern of Populus NAC TFs under salt stress showed the expression of the 289 PtNACs of 84K poplar was induced. Similar expression trends of NACs were found in Populus simonii × P. nigra T. S. Hwang et Liang and Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. Conclusions: The correlation analysis showed that the expression of two differentially expressed NAC genes PtNAC024 and PtNAC182 was significantly associated with most of the 63 differentially expressed genes tested. The expression of PtNAC024 and PtNAC182 in different tissues was also analysed in silico and different expression patterns were found. Together, this study provides a solid basis to explore stress-related NAC TF functions in Populus salt tolerance and development. Full article

Q: HTML5 video remove overlay play icon How do I remove the overlay play icon (triangle) that's visible in the center of the video for a second or so every time a video starts playing in an Android WebView?
Thanks in advance!

A: I found a solution.
Just add the 'poster' attribute.
e.g. poster="https://via.placeholder.com/1x1" or poster="noposter"
Note: Empty value are ignored. (poster="")

A: If you said about this picture
This is picture I had when tested my app on Android 6.0.
You can hide this picture. For example:
WebView mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.web_view);
mWebView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClientCustomPoster());

Chrome client class:
private class WebChromeClientCustomPoster extends WebChromeClient {

    @Override
    public Bitmap getDefaultVideoPoster() {
        return Bitmap.createBitmap(10, 10, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
    }
}

A: Neither poster="noposter" nor poster="null" work for me.
I made it work by creating a placeholder image that has just a white background color and assigned it to the video per DOM.
document.getElementById("myVideo").poster = "noposter.png";

A: Please note that setting poster to an invalid URL (such as "noposter") might trigger a network call and an error event from the video player.
In my projects, I'm setting the poster to a tiny transparent GIF:

A new form of cancer immunotherapy has been given to a University of California, San Diego Health patient in the first test of immune cells grown from stem cells.
(HealthDay)—Colon cancer is highly preventable through regular screening. But the right type of screening depends on your particular risk factors, an expert says.


"Ini perintah dari ibu, jadi kamu harus melakukan itu."
Translation:This is an order from mother, so you have to do that.
I think "This is an order from mother, so you have to do it" sounds like more natural English.
Any specific reason this is not accepted? "This order is from mother, so you have to do that."
That would be "Perintah ini dari ibu..." - ini modifies the noun only when it comes after it.
It's an easy mistake to make, but the course likes to be very picky about this, so it's good to note this behaviour.

65 SCHOOLS HAVE BENEFITED FROM CYBERCRIME AWARENESS PROGRAMME
More than 10,000 students in about sixty-five (65) Senior High Schools in Greater Accra, Central and Eastern Regions have benefited from cybercrime awareness programme under the auspices of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO).
The Public Affairs Unit (PAU) of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) has for the past three (3) years being undertaking crime prevention education in second cycle schools across the Greater Accra, Central and Eastern Regions.
Speaking to EOCO News Desk, the Head of Public Affairs, Mrs. Jacqueline Avotri (Esq.) said that the cybercrime awareness programme dubbed "Sensitisation Programme on Prohibited Cyber Activities for Senior High Schools" started in 2017 and has benefitted fifty-two (52) schools in the Greater Accra Region, six (6) in Eastern Region and seven (7) in the Central Region.
She added that the aim for the sensitization programme was to educate the youth about the dangers on the internet and its associated crimes.
Mrs. Avotri further explained that it is under the crime prevention mandate of the Office that such programme was undertaken. She was optimistic that the students would desist from overindulging themselves on cyberspace.
She added that the Public Affairs Unit of EOCO would not relent in its crime prevention public education and that the year 2020 more programmes targeting especially the youth would be undertaken by the Office.
Some of the schools that have benefitted from this programme are Wesley Grammer Senior High School, Our Lady of Mercy, Tema Senior High School, Ashiaman Senior High School, Ada Senior High School, Amasaman Senior Technical School, Ngleshie Amanfrom Senior High School, Achimota Senior High School, Presbyterian Boys Senior High School and St. Mary's Senior High School.
Others are Koforidua Secondary Technical School, Pope Johns SHS, Universal SHS, Liberty Vocational SHS, Nkwakwa Senior High School and Oda SHS.
Also, Mfanstipim SHS, University Practices, St Augustine's College, Ghana National College, Oguaa Technical Senior High School, Adisadel College and Cape Coast Technical Senior High School have benefitted from the programme.

Икирё (生霊), сорё или сэйрэй — в японской мифологии — проявление души живого человека отдельно от тела в виде призрака, который может выглядеть как обычный человек.

Традиционно считается, что если кто-то держит внутри сильную обиду против другого человека, то часть его души или душа целиком может временно оставить тело и появиться перед объектом недовольства для того, чтобы его проклясть или иным образом причинить тому вред, вызвав сглаз или порчу. Однако это временное разделение может стать постоянным, и человеческое тело, оставшееся без души, умрёт.

Человек, чья душа, побыв в образе икирё, вернулась в тело, как правило, не помнит о происшедшем с ним в «астральном виде».

Буддистская литература описывает икирё как духа, избавиться от которого особенно трудно.

"We don't have an anglican pope"
Archbishop Justin Welby © KNA
The Archbishop of Canterbury has invited the heads of the Anglican world church to a meeting. This is to be about the future of the worldwide Anglican Communion, which has around 80 million members.
Senior clergy from the 38 Anglican church provinces should discuss key ies, including a review of communion structures, at a meeting scheduled for January 2016 in Canterbury, suggests Archbishop Justin Welby, honorary head of the Anglican World Communion. The last such meeting was held in Dublin in 2011.
Tensions over sexuality and women in the episcopate
The background to this push, which is being widely registered in British and U.S. media, is apparently the tensions among Anglicans, including on the ies of sexuality and women in the episcopate. While Anglican churches in Great Britain and North America tend to be liberal, ordaining women as bishops and blessing same-sex couples, this is rejected by conservative-traditionalist churches in the South. The Church of England consecrated a woman bishop for the first time in January after a long dispute. Anglican women bishops have existed for some time in the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
The rift in the communion already became clear when the Anglican Church in Canada allowed the blessing of same-sex couples in 2002 and in the sister church in the USA, with Gene Robinson, an Anglican bishop was consecrated a year later who admitted his homosexuality. On the other hand, Anglican churches in developing countries, especially in Africa, still reject the ordination of women. And there are leading Anglican church officials in Uganda, Nigeria and Kenya who are advocating for the criminalization of homosexuality. The Lambeth Conference of all Anglican bishops, which takes place every ten years, was absent in 2008 by traditionalist bishops.
"We do not have an Anglican pope"
"The differences between our societies and cultures, as well as the speed of cultural change, tempt us to divide ourselves as Christians," Welby wrote in his statement. In 21. He said that in the twenty-first century, the Anglican denominational family needs space for profound disagreements and even mutual criticism, "as long as we believe together in the revelation of Jesus Christ".
"We don't have an Anglican pope," argues the Archbishop of Canterbury. In the Anglican Church, authority is distributed and ultimately based on the proper interpretation of Scripture. He therefore suggests that church leaders reflect anew on the way the Anglican Communion operates after exchanging views on recent developments. Welby had visited all Anglican church provinces after taking office in 2013.
Structural model remains open
As for which structural model he favors for the Communion in the future, Welby leaves it open. In church circles, there is talk of a loose connection model. At the same time, all Anglican church provinces would still be connected to the mother church in England, but they would no longer have relations with each other, and thus no longer need doctrinal agreement. When asked if this was comparable to divorce, the response at Lambeth Palace, the seat of the Archbishop of Canterbury, was, "It's more like sleeping in separate bedrooms."
Anglicans are not alone in wrestling with their stance on sexuality. Differences between reformers and conservative forces are also becoming apparent ahead of the Vatican Synod of Bishops on the family in October. But only the Catholic Church is trying to give a common answer to these questions despite huge differences in cultures and living conditions, Cardinal Reinhard Marx said in an interview. He added: "The other Christian communities are not even trying. Think of the Anglicans or the Lutheran World Federation."

Already in 1908, Inglis M. Upperçu began financing aeronautical experiments by a small company in Keyport, New Jersey. Six years later he founded Aeromarine Plane and Motor Company at the same location. As one of the first American aircraft manufacturers the company built mostly military seaplanes and flying boats. In 1928 the name was changed to Aeromarine Klemm Corporation and the production of Klemm aircrafts (e.g. the Klemm L25) started. Klemm Light Aircraft Company was a German aircraft manufacturer founded 1926 in Böblingen. Dr. Hanns Klemm, previously working for Zeppelin and the Daimler Aircraft Company, was building light sports and touring planes. The company had to stop production due to the post-war ban on aircraft construction. After the ban was lifted in 1952, the Klemm Aircraft Company was reorganized and finally taken over by Bölkow AG in 1959. Aeromarine Klemm Corporation however was closed a lot earlier (1930) due to the Great Depression. Its aero engines production division was taken over by the Uppercu-Burnelli Corporation.
