I sat outside in the yard for what will probably be the last time this year, the sun shining on my face, and wrote. We're expecting our first snowfall early next week, and I work during the day tomorrow and Monday. I've loved writing this summer. Being outside has been so inspirational for me, and I'll miss it until spring comes around again.
I realized with some dismay today that I won't be doing NaNoWriMo this year. Come November, I'm committed to having a finished first draft on deck to start editing. I certainly won't be in any frame of mind to start Book 2 at that point.
Doing NaNo last year was the kickstart that got me believing I could give writing fiction a go. I've been doing freelance journalism for close to a decade now but had always wanted to write a book. Various things kept me from trying in all that time – we'll out fear as the top one, and belief that I didn't have the time as the second. Then last year a friend and I basically double-dared each other to do NaNo, and I found out that there definitely was time in the day for it once I conquered that fear of starting (my hands were literally shaking when I typed out the first few sentences). I went a little crazy last November, neglecting myself, my family, friends and all other writing commitments shockingly, but around the 27th I "won," penning my 50,000th word. And it felt so good to do it that a few months later when this idea came barrelling into my brain, I actually had the confidence to sit down and start to write it out. Six and a half months later I've learned so much about how I can be a better writer and grown this little kernel of an idea into a thorny bramble of a story, so it's kind of a drag that NaNo won't be a part of my life this year since I feel I owe it so much.
Next best will be cheering on my friends who do take on the challenge, and hopefully scrounging up a few bucks to donate or spend in the NaNo shop, and that'll have to do until 2013 when hopefully the timing works out a bit better.
I've been writing this argument scene for a couple days, and the dialogue just isn't falling together for me. Everything sounds really awkward, and I can't come up with better words for my characters to express themselves with. I think I have a really good sense of the emotions and the non-verbal aspects of the argument, but what they're saying isn't coming out right. When I run through the scene in my head, there's a lot of gesturing and facial expressions and whatnot, but no dialogue. It's frustrating! Sharing (and avoiding sharing) feelings is so awkward sometimes. I roughed in a few sentences, but it's definitely something I have to come back to later.
In my own life, I'm a conflict avoider, so it's no surprise to me I'm struggling with this one. Callie, however, can be a conflict provoker. She often speaks without thinking and will use words as weapons, so this is something I'm really going to have to work on, especially since there are many, many more conflicts in her future.
At least I have the luxury of doing what I've always wished I could in real life: going back and changing what I said hours later when I think of a way better line.
By far one of the hardest things about writing for me is choosing names for my fictitious people and places. Callie is actually the third or fourth name for that character, and while in the context of the story it's the best fit, it's still not my favourite, although it's grown on me quite a bit. I'm constantly googling things like "french names for boys" or "common last names" because I can never come up with anything I like on my own. Nothing derails my writer's flow like introducing a new character – whether significant or incidental – and having to call them something.
It's been mentioned to me that some of my creations' appellations are a bit too trendy, and I suppose when looked at in a group, that's true, but I strongly resist having a book full of Joes and Marys and Bills.
Tonight I've actually stopped writing for the night in mid-sentence – "He introduced himself as detective…" rather than spend twenty minutes struggling to come up with something I like the sound of. That'll be the first thing I can tackle tomorrow night with a fresh head.
It's nice when something just clicks though. Awhile back I was on the bus coming home from work and saw a word carved into the wall of a bus shelter and knew exactly which character I'd give it to. But that's just one name, and it's not the one I need tonight.

Can you pass the eligibility test?
Are you a current or former member of an Australian union?
Are you a family member of: a current or former union member, or a Union Health/TUH member? Includes parent, partner or former partner, dependent child, adult child (and their partner), grandchild, brother or sister (and their partner and dependent children).
If you answered 'yes' to either question, and you're aged over 18, hooray, you can join! Let's get started by choosing some cover.


In the Howard County Public School System, students are first offered the opportunity to participate in instrumental music in the third grade. Instruction on band instruments begins in the fourth grade. The focus of instrumental instruction in the elementary school is on the individual developing basic techniques to perform at a rudimentary level.
In middle school, this focus begins to be focused on the students performing together in an ensemble. The majority of instructional time (about 83%) is spent working with the students in a large ensemble of 50 or more. Many programs do not start beginners after the fifth grade. At Folly Quarter, Mr. Spang works with students who are just beginning their band experience with a special beginner sectional created in place of a traditional sectional. These students are affectionately known as newbies. Because of current instrumentation, the director has the prerogative not to start all instruments (in other words, beginning drummers will not be allowed to begin if there are already too many in the FQMS program).
Because these students only meet with the Band Director once a week (and during that time he is running from newbie student to newbie student), private lessons with a private teacher outside of school are highly recommended to reinforce the instruction. Mr. Spang has a list of highly qualified instructors, if you are interested. Click on the Resources Tab to find the list of Private Instructors online.
Once a student performs anywhere near grade level, they are "graduated" into the normal Band Class. Because they are beginning at least one or more years behind their peers, this requires a great deal of hard work and diligent practice on their part. While not every student succeeds, the majority go on to high school music programs and have a great experience in Band for the rest of their lives.
You should rent (or purchase) an appropriate instrument from a music store and pick up the beginning band text Accent on Achievement, Book 1. Some students who are beginning large instruments (such as euphonium, tuba, bass clarinet, or bari sax) may have the instrument supplied by the Director. Newbies will be graded on a modified list of expectations, or Ladders to Success, from other band students.
This program is for the highly motivated student who has a burning desire to learn a musical instrument and help the FQMS Band Program. It is a serious undertaking, requiring an investment of time, effort and money that should not be entered into lightly.
If you have any questions regarding this program, or what instruments are most needed in the band, please do not hesitate to contact the director.

NEW 'FORD PRO' VEHICLE SERVICES AND DISTRIBUTION BUSINESS REDEFINING TRANSPORTATION VALUE FOR COMMERCIAL CUSTOMERS
Separate within Ford and unique among automakers, Ford Pro will deliver new levels of productivity for business and government customers via work-ready products and services
Will leverage technology from the ground to the cloud to help improve uptime, total cost of ownership and performance of fleets with electrified or combustion vehicles
To be led by Ford Pro CEO Ted Cannis, who's headed Ford's North America commercial business and earlier was leader of Ford's Team Edison electric-vehicle development group
DEARBORN, Mich., May 26, 2021 – Ford, which already helps commercial customers "own work" with the world's most popular pickup trucks and vans, now plans to redefine success for those customers with Ford Pro – a global vehicle services and distribution business that will increase uptime and reduce ownership costs, leading to higher productivity and performance.
The new business – separate within Ford and the first of its kind among automakers – is a major outcome of the Ford+ plan for growth and value creation, which is based on building enduring, always-on customer relationships.
"Ford Pro will redefine the market for commercial vehicles and services, where Ford is already the leader around the world," said Ford CEO Jim Farley. "We're creating a one-stop shop to help those customers increase uptime and productivity while reducing complexity and the total cost of ownership."
A foundational strength of Ford Pro is the industry's most comprehensive and flexible range of F-Series and Ranger trucks, as well as Transit, the world's best-selling cargo van – and seamless upfitting of all of them. Soon, Ford will start making high-volume electric vehicles, including the E-Transit later this year and the F-150 Lightning Pro in mid-2022, which Ford Pro will pair with commercially focused charging solutions.
In addition to expected benefits for customers, Ford Pro's ambitions for itself are significant. The company anticipates its growing capabilities and appeal to generate $45 billion in revenue from hardware and adjacent and new services by 2025 – up from $27 billion in 2019. In North America, Ford's share of Class 1 through Class 7 full-size trucks and vans today exceeds 40%. In Europe, Ford has been the leading commercial vehicle brand for six consecutive years.
Farley said Ford Pro will be led by Ted Cannis as CEO. Cannis will collaborate with Hans Schep, general manager of Commercial Vehicles for Ford of Europe, and other regional leaders. Cannis currently heads Ford's North America CV business and previously was leader of the Team Edison electric-vehicle development group.
Redefining, Unlocking Commercial Customer Value
Ford Pro, which will implement new services in phases, is aimed squarely at helping commercial customers work better, with productive, durable and smart vehicles and connected services.
Ford today has trusted relationships with nearly 125,000 commercial and government fleet customers in North America and thousands more in Europe and elsewhere. Ford Pro is designed to even more rapidly and cost-effectively anticipate and address their needs and those of new customers.
"We're going to give commercial customers even more reasons to choose and rely on Ford," said Cannis. "Our team understands that when customers win, we win, so we're completely focused on unlocking tremendous value for them."
Ford Pro will integrate, digitize and simplify transportation with capabilities spanning:
Ford Pro Vehicles – including Ford's broad lineup of combustion-engine and hybrid commercial vehicles and, soon, all-electric versions of the company's industry-leading vans and full-size pickup trucks developed for commercial use
Ford Pro Charging – hardware and software solutions for public, depot and overnight home charging of EVs so they're ready to work again the next day
·Ford Pro Intelligence – digital services, with distinct features integrated in their vehicles that enable customers to better manage and maintain their fleetsFord Pro Services Elite – expanding Ford's strong network of CV centers by adding 120 dedicated, large-bay service hubs across the United States with extended hours and rapid turnaround, plus introducing 1,200 mobile service vehicles by 2025 to meet customers where they are, save them money and get them back in business, and
Ford Pro FinSimple – bundled financing for vehicles, services and EV charging.
Some elements of Ford Pro commercial services have already been introduced and are now being expanded in Europe, among them the recently launched Ford Fleet Management and Ford Pro Liive. The latter is a connected uptime system expected to reduce downtime of customer fleets by up to 60%. Such enhanced services are generating higher levels of customer satisfaction and loyalty, and growth for Ford.
Ford Pro will initially launch in North America and Europe. More information can be found at fordpro.com.

Characters Of Adam Neumann, Rebekah And Miguel McKelvey In 'WeCrashed,' Explained
By Sushrut Gopesh
Credits: AppleTV+
The lives of entrepreneurs have always been very intriguing. The series, "WeCrashsed," introduced us to such eccentric personalities. There was Adam Neumann, the CEO of WeWork, his wife, Rebekah Paltrow Neumann, and his friend and co-founder, Miguel Mckelvey, who were on the path to re-molding the perceptions that people had about the real estate business. WeWork was just a coworking space, but the ideologies of Adam Neumann made it into a way of living. An empire was created, which was backed up by Adam's showmanship, Rebekah's philosophies, and Miguel's hard work. So let's look into the peculiar personalities of these intriguing individuals and try to understand what it was that worked for them.
Adam Neumann – The Persistent Showman
Adam Neumann was a force of nature. You might call him crazy, but he was a persistent person who didn't give up unless and until he achieved his goal. He couldn't take "no" for an answer, which sometimes worked in his favor and sometimes against him. Adam Neumann had an eccentric quality of promising to deliver even without having the necessary resources. He had the confidence that he would be able to create those resources just in time. Adam was persistent with Rebekah Paltrow too. He joined her yoga class and tried his best to woo her. But when that didn't work, he asked her out on a date. Imagine this: after asking a girl out for several months, she finally agrees, and you reach to meet her without even a single penny in your pocket, still thinking that your proposal would be accepted. It said loads about the man. Any sane man would have been embarrassed beyond his wits and lost all hope. But not our Adam. He stormed into her office the very next day and coerced her boss to increase her salary. Rebekah knew that this was the man she would want to spend her life with. She knew he valued her. Yes, at that time, he was not financially stable, but Rebekah knew that any man with such eccentric qualities could not stay away from success for long. Adam was not hesitant ever to take the favor, because he knew that he had the capability to multiply it ten folds and return it back to the person.
Rebekah's father gave her a million dollars as a wedding gift to buy a house. Adam persuaded her to use it for his business. There was a possibility that the business would not have given the desired returns, but Adam was not scared to take the risk. He was an optimist who believed that if one could imagine it, then they could achieve it. When he sold off his first venture, Greendesk, and started finding investors, it seemed like nobody wanted to invest in his idea of shared working spaces. But once again, he was persistent and resilient. Bruce Dunlevie from Benchmark Capital was one of the first people who recognized the potential of the man. Bruce, at that time, didn't know the intricacies of the business and what exactly Adam planned to do with WeWork. But he saw a man who could sell his product. He was a great showman. He could talk and sway you in seconds. He was the kind of man who wouldn't come back unless and until he finalized the deal.
Adam Neumann never had any space for a second opinion. He did what he felt was right. When Cameron Lautner from Benchmark Capital started questioning his strategies, he started looking for another big investor who believed in him and gave him autonomy to conduct his business. Masayoshi Son, CEO of Softbank, was a good ally to have, but there was always a possibility that if things didn't work out with him, he had the resources to turn into your biggest nemesis and pave the way for your destruction. Masa believed more in Adam as a person as compared to his business strategies. Masa was a man who bet on the individual rather than the statistical analysis and business model. He liked a person who was ready to plunge into the deep sea without knowing what was there inside.
Adam made a few choices that weakened the foundation of his fortress. The culture of WeWork was such that people were not given the freedom to voice their opinions. It was a one-man show. Even the co-founder, Miguel Mckelvey, didn't meddle with the decision made by Adam. Adam was told that he was burning huge amounts of resources on tequila parties and all that stuff that didn't matter, but he kept on with it. Many employees were kept at minimum wages, but steps were not taken to improve that. Professional decisions should never be made based on yardsticks that are biased in nature. Just because Rebekah said that she wanted to be the Chief Branding Officer of the company, Elishia Kennedy, who was a deserving candidate, was removed from her position. What it did was to keep a person who was not aware of her duties at the epicenter. She ran the show without knowing where it was going or what the consequences of her decisions would be. Such small yet important tactical decisions accumulated to become one gigantic mound of bad choices and misplaced priorities.
Adam underestimated everybody, irrespective of their legacy or expertise, and that was one of the main reasons he got ambushed from all sides. He had everything that would have taken WeWork to greater heights, but his overconfidence, not taking criticism very well, not giving room to the opinions of experts, and maybe his assertiveness, led to his downfall.
Rebekah Neumann And Miguel Mckelvey – The Second Fiddles
There was one core difference between the characteristics of Rebekah and Miguel that made their personalities poles apart: one was the most genuine and authentic individual you would ever meet, and the other was so pretentious that it led to the loss of her credibility. Rebekah Neumann was like El Professor from the Spanish Serious Money Heist. She knew it all. Be it strategy, branding, way of living, pranic healing, energy protection, etc., she felt she was somebody who had mastered everything. But it was not so. She was clueless about branding and marketing, which she was made the head of, at WeWork. The problem was that the employees saw through her incapabilities. Rebekah had a problem that she was recognized as Adam's wife at WeWork. Nobody respected her the way they did Elishia Kennedy. She didn't have an independent standing in the organization.
She wanted to give herself a lot of importance. She had a separate office and all the other prerequisites in place, but she had no expertise to back it up, and neither was she willing to put her heart and soul into it. In the last episode of WeCrashed, amidst a situation of crisis and chaos, she tells the employee who was handling the PR to stop sending her press briefings as it gave her negative thoughts. She was somebody who would just turn her back, instead of tackling the situation, and go to her safe zone without giving any directions to the people who were looking up to her. These things caused damage to the perceptions that insiders held about the organization. But it was not her fault alone. She was put in the wrong place by Adam, and he should have known it better. He knew that Elishia knew her job, and she was good at it. But maybe he wanted to please his wife and couldn't say no to her.
It is an undeniable fact that Rebekah was the best partner that Adam could have asked for. She was a caring mother and looked out for the family at all times. Rebekah would have been a great spiritual guru, teaching the meaning and ultimate goal of life, but instead, she desired to be an entrepreneur as she wanted all the fame and applause for herself, but she clearly lacked the knowledge, expertise, and skills.
Miguel and Rebekah were comfortable playing the role of second fiddle. But the desire to gain fame and importance was there in Rebekah and, to some extent, in Miguel too. Miguel was an excellent human being. He knew his job, and was good with numbers, but lacked speaking skills, and I felt he was too introverted to face the public a lot of the time. It was not that he was not given the opportunity to steal the limelight, but he was just too uncomfortable and always handed over the baton to Adam Neumann. Adam disrespected him in one of the board meetings, and at that time, it pinched him. He had been a lone warrior fighting relentlessly from Adam's side and didn't deserve such treatment. Miguel was a great friend to have, one who could be trusted and given the responsibility to do the needful. He was somebody who couldn't function under a lot of pressure. When the stakes were high, and the situation demanded him to think calmly amidst the chaos, he started hyperventilating. But Miguel knew hard work. It was his presentation that got them the deal when they started Greendesk. He was not scared to put in nights and give every ounce of his energy for the welfare of WeWork.
Asking Miguel to be his partner was probably one of the best decisions made by Adam Neumann. Maybe Adam was not able to take WeWork to a pedestal that he would have desired, but surely he got a friend, whose bond and friendship he would cherish for a lifetime.

What Do A Gun And A Book Of Puns In Ellie's Hand Tell About Her Lost Childhood In 'The Last of Us' Episode 4?


Cinderford director of rugby Paul Morris admits his side are in a relegation battle as they prepare to take on struggling Loughborough Students at home on Saturday.
The loss to Sale FC in Manchester sees them now only two points above the bottom three after 17 games.
The visit of Loughborough, who are 15 and nine nine points behind Cinderford, to the Beavis Memorial Stadium (2pm) now takes on extra significance.
Morris said: "Is it a relegation battle? Definitely but then again that applies to over half the league. Ten teams in fact.
"I said from the start of the season that a really good side would go down. We can't just hope it's not us.
"We have to take care of ourselves and make sure it's not us. Ten wins is normally enough to stay up but it's going to take much more than that this season.
Birmingham Moseley, who are 14, have six wins and Plymouth Albion, who are seventh, have just eight wins.
"We have to hold our nerve and the two home games in January, against Loughborough and Esher, are vital to us going forward.
Cinderford were beaten 31-17 by Sale in their first game of 2019.
"Last Saturday against Sale was a negative result. However, it was not a negative performance," said Morris.
"We did a lot right. Three tries for each side emphasises that but ultimately we were undone by a potent Sale back line.
"Their close links with the Sale Sharks is a model I envy and admire. The Sharks coaching staff were all in attendance.
"It was good to play against them and they knew they'd been in a game. We had a lot of possession but they were more clinical.
On the challenge of Loughborough, Morris said: "Loughborough have picked up massively from the start of the season.
They put 50 points on Caldy last Saturday. They have an injection of Leicester Academy players and that is not something that is unfair. It is how it should be.
"We are in this league to pit our wits against quality sides and quality players, young or old, and all different styles.
"Their four wins have all come on their own AGP pitch. We have to make sure our style beats theirs.

I am not a huge fan of photo overloads, I apologise. I believe 1-6 photos which show everything you need to see in the outfit are enough. Today, I've got 9. I feel like a hypocrite, ha. The reason is this; I took a lot of photos and usually, I never like a lot of my pictures but this day, I did. Also, I never know what to do with extra photos. There are more pictures on my Tumblr.
I was helping Joy out with a project of hers when I saw this building and I knew that I had to take photos in front of this door one day. I do this thing where I take photos with my phone of potential outfit post locations. I'm one of the most annoying people to walk with, ha, I keep stopping to take pictures.
I've owned this crop top for years but this is the first time I'm wearing it out. I don't think there's anything wrong with outfit repeating, so this will probably be my go-to outfit this summer.
Fear the lioness, paint her face black and golden"

Wehrpass of Gefreiter Hans Böschl, Gewehrschütze and Schreiber in I.R. 416, G.R. 112
Killed in action in Ivancea, Moldova, August 1944
This Wehrpass was issued in 1940. Hans Böschl was born in 1908, he worked as a Regierungsrat, a civilian administrative official. He entered the Wehrmacht in 1941, when he was 33 years old. He served in a number of units including Infanterie Regiment 416 and Grenadier Regiment 112. He was trained to use a carbine, rifle and machine gun and was also trained as a clerk. He participated in the campaign in Russia. He was hospitalized for dysentery, hepatitis and jaundice. He was killed by shell splinters in his belly and legs in August, 1944. He was 35 years old.
These two entries relate to Böschl's training and service as a clerk (Schreiber).

ARTBA's Transportation Development Foundation (ARTBA-TDF) has received a federal grant to train workers about fall hazards in the transportation construction industry.
The new grant will provide 2-hour and 3-hour training to employers and workers in the road construction industry. The target audience includes workers employed by small businesses, Spanish-speaking, minority, disadvantaged, and other hard-to-reach individuals. Training topics will include roadway construction zone hazards and fall prevention. Instruction will be offered in Spanish. There are also plans to revise existing training materials.
In 2013, falls represented 35 percent (291 deaths) of 828 fatalities in the entire construction industry, according to OSHA. The Federal Highway Administration says falls contributed to an average of 20 percent of road construction injuries.
OSHA says that approximately 2.1 million workers have been trained through the Harwood grant program since 1978. The grant honors Susan Harwood, a former director of the Office of Risk Assessment in OSHA's former Directorate of Health Standards.
ARTBA TDF administers a variety of safety education programs and services through contracts and cooperative agreements with the federal government and other industry allies. In addition to the Harwood grant, this includes the National Work Zone Safety Information Clearinghouse, The Federal Highway Work Zone Training program, and support of the National Committee on Uniform Traffic Control Devices.
For more information about ARTBA safety training programs, please contact Brad Sant, senior vice president of safety and education.

INTRODUCTION) Modern contraception is a safe and effective clinical service for reducing unintended pregnancy and improving birth spacing for women. Provider counseling is an important factor that may influence women's decision making, satisfaction, and self-efficacy with contraception use. This study measures women's perceptions of recent provider interactions and examines the extent to which these perceptions are associated with method satisfaction and confidence in use. We hypothesize that women who perceive more positive interactions are ultimately more satisfied and confident with their contraceptive method choice. METHODS) A cross-sectional survey of adult reproductive-aged women in two southern states (aged 18 to 44 years old) was used for the analysis. The Statewide Survey of Women was conducted in 2017 by NORC at the University of Chicago. Women were asked to rate providers across a series of statements reflecting aspects of patient-centered contraceptive counseling using a 5-point Likert scale. Responses were dichotomized to reflect those with very good/excellent experiences compared to those with less favorable experiences (Poor, Fair, Good). Women were subsequently asked about their level of satisfaction with current contraceptive methods and confidence in use, also using a 5-point Likert scale. These measures were also dichotomized. A chi-squared test for independence and unadjusted logistic regression models were used to examine associations between patient-provider interactions, satisfaction and confidence in contraceptive use. FINDINGS) The survey included 4,281 respondents. The majority of women reported being satisfied with their current contraceptive method (92.6%) and confident in its use (94.9%). Approximately 93% of women who felt respected as a person by their provider also reported being satisfied with their current birth control method, compared to 73% among women who did not feel respected as a person (p<0.001). Among women who felt their provider allowed them to say what mattered to them about their birth control method, 93.5% were satisfied with their current method, compared to 75% among those who did not feel allowed to say what mattered (p<0.001). Women who felt like their provider took their preferences for birth control into consideration were also more satisfied with their current birth control method compared to those who did not feel the same way (93.7% versus 73.5%; p<0.001). Women who felt their provider allowed them to say what mattered and those who felt their provider took their preferences into consideration were also associated with higher rates of confidence in correct use. Women reporting that their provider gave them enough information to make the best decision about their birth control method was also associated with greater confidence in correct use (95.6% versus 87.5%; p=0.007). CONCLUSION) Findings suggest that positive patient-provider interactions are associated with increased satisfaction in current contraceptive method use. Interestingly, women reporting that providers did not give them enough information to make the best decision about birth control methods also reported being less confident in using their current method. Collectively, these findings support existing evidence suggesting that patient-provider interactions are important for patient-centered care and can be used to inform future clinical practice guidelines around contraceptive counseling.

Engagement: Australia's weak link in biodiversity protection – Paul Martin, Elodie Le Gal and Miriam Verbeek
International and domestic conservation laws aim to address the biodiversity decline that is caused by intertwined environmental and human behaviour factors. In Australia, despite the country being a signatory to relevant conventions and having many biodiversity conservation laws, policy instruments and associated biodiversity strategies are not adequately protecting nature. For Australia to meet its Convention commitments to biodiversity protection a more effective approach to managing human behaviours is needed. Both tangible and intangible resources, including more scientifically sophisticated approaches to managing community engagement, are essential if legal instruments are to be made effective. This article forms part of a growing body of scholarship on the implementation of environmental instruments, and suggests that legal effectiveness will require new academic and policy approaches that take into account the diverse drivers and practical constraints on human behaviour.
Compliance with statutory directives and the negligence liability of public authorities: Climate change and coastal development – Justine Bell-James and Anna Huggins
Statutory directives, such as the requirement for government decision-makers to "have regard to" a prescribed matter, are extensively used in climate change and coastal development legislation. This article considers how compliance with a statutory directive may influence judicial analysis in administrative law and negligence proceedings, drawing examples from three Australian State case studies. In all case study jurisdictions, decision-makers are required to gather and acquaint themselves with a substantial amount of information on risks such as sea-level rise, erosion and inundation. This article concludes that although compliance with a statutory directive may protect a decision-maker from a successful administrative law challenge, the information gathered to satisfy this directive may influence a court's assessment of duty and breach in a future negligence action. Ideally, therefore, decision-makers should consider the short- and long-term significance of information on climate change impacts in order to reach a decision that is both procedurally and substantively sound.
Adapting to a sustainable energy future: Part 1 – The localisation of sustainable energy generation under the New South Wales planning law regime – Hon Justice Brian J Preston SC and Tristan Orgill
The Australian energy sector is undergoing a significant transition towards renewable energy. As part of this transition, the supply of electricity generated by small-scale solar photovoltaic electricity generating systems ("solar pv systems") is likely to significantly increase. The New South Wales planning law regime will play an important role in either facilitating or restricting this expansion of solar energy. Part 1 of this article critically examines whether the regime is well equipped to encourage the efficient installation of solar pv systems yet prevent the potential adverse impacts of such development. In particular, the adequacy of the regime in managing the risk that solar pv system developments diminish the aesthetic heritage values of listed heritage conservation areas is considered. Part 1 of this article advances two principal arguments: first, that the unusual drafting of the primary environmental planning instrument may pose unnecessary and significant obstacles to the successful growth in solar pv electricity generation; and, secondly, that the proper conservation of heritage items and places requires that proposed publicly visible solar pv systems be subject to merit assessment.
Community Engagement Charters: South Australia's proposal to change the approach to community involvement in land-use planning – Paul Leadbeter
South Australia is presently undergoing a major reform of its land-use planning regulatory and policy system. A key element of its new Planning, Development and Infrastructure Act 2016 (SA) is a requirement to create a Community Engagement Charter which seeks to change and arguably improve the approach to community engagement in planning processes. In particular, it is intended that the Charter alter the point at which the community most engages with planning issues from the traditional development assessment stage to the policy creation stage, the rationale being that, if the policy is correct, there should be no problem with the assessment of proposed development against such policy. The article argues that the success of this significant change from previous practice will depend very much on the community being confident that its views on planning and development are accorded due weight and that, once policy is set, development assessment decisions are made in accordance with that policy. Problems will arise where community wishes do not reflect the planning and development objectives of the government of the day.
China's market-based environmental reforms: From inception to international co-operation and integration – Benny Hu and Richard Simmons
This article critically analyses the background to China's carbon market reforms and assesses the country's current progress in introducing cap-and-trade systems for carbon credits, participating in the clean development mechanism provided for in the Kyoto Protocol, and promoting a voluntary carbon market. The article explains how China, using a command and control approach it has employed previously in other spheres, has established cap-and-trade emissions markets as pilot schemes in selected parts of the country, and is now quickly moving towards the creation of a national carbon market. The article then considers the potential for China's carbon market to be linked with other commensurate markets overseas, in particular that of Australia, a development that would help achieve global emission reduction targets at lower overall cost.

Sara Carr Discusses the Topography of Wellness in American Urban Landscapes
Ten thousand is the number of steps we're told to walk each day if we want to stay active and healthy. For many, this means wearing a Fitbit and checking it regularly. But for city planners attempting to design a healthier city, the implication is far more than personal: it means finding ways to make walkability an essential feature of our cities.
Yet, according to Sara Carr, a recent Mellon Fellow in Urban Landscape Studies, who delivered the second Mellon Midday Dialogue of the semester, this trend toward walkability is only the most recent episode in a much longer (and occasionally fraught) relationship between public health and urban landscape.
Despite public health researchers' nascent interest in studying wellness in relation to the built environment—between 2003 and 2013, more than six hundred related articles have been published, compared to fewer than forty in the preceding decade—city planners have been borrowing insights from physicians for a much longer period of time.
Carr explained that planners have often imagined cities in anthropomorphic terms. Just as physicians diagnose, and surgeons operate on, the human body, so too have planners prescribed different fixes for the world of brick and mortar.
In a way, Carr is uniquely positioned to tell this history. She currently holds a one-of-a-kind joint appointment between the school of architecture and the office of public health studies at the University of Hawaii. This position has allowed Carr to bring together students from both schools who, despite the intertwined history of their disciplines, are rarely encouraged to interact in the classroom.
Carr began her presentation with a discussion of the nineteenth century, when physicians still thought of miasma—literally, "bad air"—as the cause of diseases ranging from cholera to obesity. To contain this ethereal threat, planners paved over exposed bodies of waters and moved sewage systems underground. (Both were believed to emanate miasma.)
The eventual replacement of miasma theory with germ theory did not prevent planners from identifying new ills within the design of the city. This time around, however, it was the urban density associated with tenement buildings and slums that they took issue with. As an antidote, they prescribed large, open spaces, giving rise to landmarks of urban design like Central Park, whose chief architect, Fredrick Law Olmsted Jr., had also served on the Sanitary Commission.
In recent decades, as the focus of public health debates has shifted from infectious to chronic diseases, planners have reversed many of these earlier views. Urban waters that were previously paved over have been reexposed to inject a dose of nature into the concrete jungle. Instead of decrying density, planners now herald close-knit urban centers as a requisite for walkability, which helps to counter ailments, like diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, that are often associated with America's overreliance on cars.
But despite the evident benefits of walkable cities, Carr is weary of making sweeping claims about their superiority. As the principal investigator of a walkability study group in Hawaii, she sees much of the current rhetoric surrounding walkability as built upon a monolithic model that overlooks the preferences of diverse local demographics, for whom walking can sometimes be either unfeasible or outright dangerous. Context, for Carr—as it is for walking—remains paramount.

The Indiana Court of Appeals granted The Indianapolis Star's request for rehearing regarding the court's decision to dismiss the newspaper's appeal of a discovery order, but the court once again voted 2-1 to dismiss the appeal.
Chief Judge Margret Robb signed the eight-page order on rehearing in which Judges Edward Najam and Elaine Brown affirmed the Dec. 7, 2012, published order dismissing appeal over this matter. Judge Rudolph Pyle III dissented as he did previously.
This is the second time this case has come before the COA; the first time, the judges sent the case back to the trial court to determine whether the newspaper has to identify an online user whose comment is part of a defamation lawsuit filed by Jeffrey Miller, former CEO of Junior Achievement of Central Indiana. The trial court has since ordered The Star to produce the name.
The Court of Appeals voted late last year 2-1 that the discovery order isn't a final judgment and the court has no jurisdiction over the case.
Typically, the appeals court will deny a rehearing petition when a party offers new arguments on rehearing, but the judges decided to address the four arguments raised by The Star in its petition. The newspaper contended that this appeal came to the court by the same procedural route as the first appeal; that In re WTHR-TV, 693 N.E.2d 1 (Ind. 1998), allows the appeals court to disregard Rule 14(B) trial court certification requirement for a discretionary interlocutory appeal and to decide this case on the merits; that the discovery order didn't comply with Trial Rule 34(C) and the noncompliant order can't evade the jurisdiction of the COA; and that Appellate Rule 66(B) should be available to save this appeal from procedural default.
The majority held that no authority suggests that the traditional right to appeal preserved in the Indiana Constitution includes the right to a direct appeal from interlocutory orders; that the newspaper's reliance on WTHR-TV is misplaced; and Rule 66(B) won't salvage a total failure to comply with Trial Rule 54(B).
The order is In re Indiana Newspapers Inc d/b/a The Indianapolis Star v. Jeffrey M. Miller, et al., 49A02-1211-PL-898.

Acid Drop — видеоигра в жанре головоломки, разработанная программистом Дэннисом М. Киссом () и выпущенная компанией Salu Ltd. в 1992 году эксклюзивно для игровой приставки Atari 2600. Стала последней игрой, официально выпущенной для этой игровой системы.

Acid Drop является адаптированным под возможности Atari 2600 клоном популярной видеоигры-головоломки Columns, выпущенной компанией Sony в 1989 году для аркадных автоматов и ряда игровых систем Геймплей игры схож со знаменитым Тетрисом, как и в нём, цель Acid Drop — складывание падающих с верхней части экрана блоков в определённом порядке. Как и в игре Columns, каждый блок состоит из трёх ячеек разного цвета, расположенных друг над другом. Игрок может менять порядок расположения ячеек в блоке или поворачивать блок горизонтально. Три ячейки одинакового цвета, сложенные в нижней части экрана в ряд или в столбик, исчезают, принося игроку каждый раз бонусные пункты.

За каждые 10 000 пунктов игрок переходит на новый уровень, где блоки падают с более высокой скоростью. Игра заканчивается, если на экране становится так много блоков, что для новых не остаётся места. Всего же в игре 30 таких уровней.

Единственная музыкальная дорожка, звучащая на протяжении всей игры, является несколько упрощённым вариантом знаменитой фортепианной пьесы-багатель Людвига ван Бетховена — К Элизе.

Кроме Acid Drop, компания Salu Ltd. переиздала для Atari 2600 игры Ghostbusters II (в 1992 году) и Pick 'n Pile (в 1990 году).

Series of Dreams 17/68
by Russell Joslin
In Series of Dreams, Russell Joslin references work curated over 17 years as Publisher & Editor of Shots magazine to create a uniquely poetic and conceptually unified collection of imagery which simultaneously comforts, challenges, and delights the viewer. This beautifully printed volume includes 157 striking and memorable works from Joslin's 68 issues of the magazine. Meticulously sown images are divided into thought-provoking and luscious chapters, but it is much more than a "best of" anthology. Elaborating on the surrealist sensibilities of Joslin's Black Forest [Candela Books, 2014], Series of Dreams achieves an elusive balance between the humane and the ethereal; that rare and magical aesthetic that lets us experience the universal nature of dreaming while acknowledging the highly personal experience of one's own dreams. The work of each artist is celebrated and allowed to breathe, each image recognized for its beauty and mystery; this, while the work of Joslin – through his deliberate and purposeful selection and sequencing – offers a sense of community and cohesion.
Series of Dreams is the debut title of Skeleton Key Press, a new voice in contemporary art publishing. A complete list of contributing artists and photos of the book follows.

Popular television host Lisa Wilkinson made headlines across Australian when she abruptly quit The Today Show after Channel Nine refused to pay her the same salary as he male co-host Karl Stefanovic.
Since then, rumours have been swirling around who will replace the veteran journalist.
A Nine insider has reportedly told The Daily Telegraph that executives are exploring a 'number of options'.
'There is a thought that going left of field with something unexpected could be smart,' the source revealed.
However a clear front-runner is Deborah Knight, 44, who already holds experience in hosting the breakfast program, alongside Karl, 43.
Meanwhile prior contender Georgie Gardner, 46, is ruled out, with the hours not conducive to family life as a mother-of-two.
It's still unclear as to who will be replacing the 57-year-old host, but at last week's Melbourne Cup festivities, former MKR contestant Ash Pollard hinted she might possibly take the coveted gig!
Meanwhile, since her shock departure from the popular morning program, Wilkinson has announced she will be joining Channel 10 in 2018 on popular news program The Project.

Q: Why is $\sin : \mathbb{R} \to [-5,5] $ different from $\sin : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$? My teacher says these two functions are different, why though?
$$\sin : \mathbb{R} \to [-5,5] \tag{1}$$
$$ \sin : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \tag{2} $$
Both have the same domain and range. What difference does changing the codomain make here, so long as I keep the codomain as a superset of the range?
More generally speaking, $f : A \to B $ and $f: A \to C$ where $B$ and $C$ are the codomain of the same function $f$ and are supersets of range of $ f$
What difference would that make? How would changing the codomain (in this case) mean the functions are different? Isn't the function $f$ the same?

A: The difference that changing the codomains make is that you've changed the codomain; you no longer have what you started with.

There are actually two main conceptions of the notion of "function" floating around. For lack of a better name, I will call them the "typed" and the "untyped" version.
In the typed notion of function, the types of the input and output argument of a function are part of its identity. The fundamental concept here is "a function from A to B", so if you change B you're talking about something different. When one just says "function", that there is an A and a B associated to the function is still implicit; e.g. the specific choice of A and B can be deduced from context, or maybe we're saying something that will be true no matter what A and B are.
In the untyped notion of function, which I will just call a "graph", it's not bound to types; it's often conceived simply as a set containing possible input-output pairs. Given any pair of sets $A$ and $B$, we can ask if a graph can be construed as a function from $A$ to $B$. This is, I think, the notion you have in mind.
Your teacher is using "function" in the typed sense; you have in mind the notion of a graph instead.

A: As discussed in detail here, a function is a triple

*

*a first set $A$ (domain)

*a second set $B$ (codomain)

*a law (i.e. a rule, a relationship, etc.) such that at each element of $A$ is associated one and only one element of $B$ that is
$$\forall x\in A \quad \exists ! y\in B:\,y=f(x)$$
Therefore in that case

*

*$\sin : \mathbb{R} \to [-5,5] $

*$ \sin : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} $

are different functions since they have different codomain.
To appreciate that definition consider the case

*

*$f(x)=x^2 \quad \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$

*$f(x)=x^2 \quad \mathbb{R^+} \to \mathbb{R}$
in that case the "law" is the same but only the second one is bijective and invertible.
Therefore when we define a function it is always necessary, in order to have a complete definition, to declare also its domain and codomain.

A: To say that the two functions are the same is only telling half the story. Functions are described as injections, surjections, and bijections, and which of these depends on the function's invertibility.
When we talk about injections, etc, we focus on the co-domain because, by default, all the elements of the domain are subject to the function.
An injection is where an element of the co-domain has at most one element of the domain mapped to it. Note that "at most one" includes none. That is, all the elements of the domain are mapped to only one element of the co-domain, but there may be elements of the co-domain that have no mapping with the domain.
A surjection is where an element of the co-domain has at least one element of the domain mapped to it. Note that "at least one" implies that all elements of the co-domain are mapped by the domain, hence the alternative word for this being "onto". So with a surjection all the elements of the domain are mapped to all the elements of the co-domain but more than one element of the domain could be mapped to the same element of the co-domain.
A bijection is both an injection and a surjection. Hence, the phrases "at most one" and "at least one" can only be combined into the phrase "one, and only one".
When it comes to invertibility, remember that a function's domain, by default, includes all the elements. Thus, because an injection may not map the domain to all of the co-domain, invertibility may need modification of the co-domain to become the domain of the inverse. On the other hand, a surjection includes all the elements of the co-domain so the inverse has this as the domain, but these elements may map to more than one element in its co-domain, the previous domain. So, the elements of the inverse's co-domain would map to at least one element (in fact only one) of its domain, and so would be a surjection. Of course, a bijection would be a one-to-one mapping with the inverse.
Hence, a surjection and bijection should be easily inverted whereas an injection would need modification of the function's co-domain to become the inverse's domain.
In the case of the two functions quoted, clearly they are both injections not sur or bijections.

Clinico-Pathological Characterization of Hereditary, Familial and Sporadic Prostate Cancer [PDF]
Diem Nguyen Bentzon, Anne Sofie Lynnerup, Michael Borre
Open Journal of Urology (OJU) , 2012, DOI: 10.4236/oju.2012.22008
Abstract: Aim: To characterize familial prostate cancer including hereditary prostate cancer and assess the disease-free survival following radical prostatectomy. Methods: A self-administered written questionnaire was forwarded to 709 prostatectomized patients from the Aarhus Prostate Cancer Study containing questions about cases of prostate cancer (PC), age at diagnosis, vital status, and age at death for all first-degree relatives. Patients were then divided into groups according to their family history: hereditary prostate cancer (HPC), familial prostate cancer (FPC), and sporadic prostate cancer (SPC) groups. The information from a subset of both FPC (n = 17) and SPC (n = 17) groups were validated in the Danish Cancer Register and the Civil Registration System. Between groups, we described the association of age, prostatespecific antigen (PSA), postoperative Gleason score and T Stage. A Kaplan-Meier curve demonstrated postoperative disease-free survival in each group. Results: The response rate was 81% (574/709). About 21% of the patients were categorized in the FPC group, of which 7% were identified as having HPC. The median follow-up time was 63 months for HPC, 65 months for FPC and 88 months for SPC. Overall, there was no significant difference between groups in clinical features and disease-free survival except that patients with HPC were significantly associated with younger age than sporadic cases (p = 0.02). The proportion of self-reported PC diagnoses confirmed in the cancer register was 27.8%. The index persons with SPC reported no PC in first-degree relatives and none was found the cancer register. Conclusion: Overall, we found no difference in clinical characteristics and survival, following radical prostatectomy except that patients with HPC were younger at diagnosis. These results are in line with previously reported data.
Expression Profiling of Hereditary versus Sporadic Prostate Cancer Suggests CYR61, EGR3, KLF6 and SNF1LK as Differentially Expressed Genes [PDF]
Diem Nguyen Bentzon, Martin M?rck Mortensen, Torben ?rntoft, Lars Dyrskj?t, Michael Borre
Abstract: Background: Distinguishing between sub-clinical and aggressive forms of prostate cancer is difficult due to the heterogeneity of the disease. It is, however, important to identify aggressive forms to guide proper treatment. This study compared gene expression profiles in cancer cells from hereditary and sporadic prostate cancer cases and attempted to correlate differentially regulated genes with clinico-pathological characteristics and prognosis. Materials and methods: The study population comprised patients diagnosed with clinically localized prostate cancer undergoing prostatectomy. Patients were divided into hereditary and sporadic cancer cases based on their family history. Fresh frozen biopsies from prostatectomy specimens were laser-dissected for RNA-extraction. Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus GeneChips were used to measure gene expression loaded onto Cluster 3.0 and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis softwares to examine the relationship among genes between groups. Differentially expressed genes were selected for protein expression analysis using immunohistochemistry on histological sections and tissue microarrays. Results: No single genes were signifycantly differentially expressed between hereditary and sporadic cases after adjustment for multiple testing. Using cluster analysis, four transcripts were found to be upregulated in hereditary prostate cancer tissue: CYR61, EGR3, KLF6 and SNF1LK. The intensity of CYR61, EGR2, KLF6 and SNF1LK immunostainings, however, were not significantly different in a separate sample of hereditary and sporadic prostate cancers. Furthermore, no correlations between CYR61, EGR2, KLF6, and SNF1LK staining intensities and the clinico-pathological variables or disease-free survival were detected, except for EGR3 that was significantly associated with T stage (p = 0.04). Conclusion: Overall, no single transcript level was significantly associated with hereditary prostate cancer. Cluster analysis suggested that the expression of CYR61, EGR3, KLF6 and SNF1LK were upregulated in cancer tissue from hereditary cases, but we were not able to confirm this on the protein level, and levels of these proteins were not found to correlate with clinico-pathological characteristics or biochemical recurrence.
Replication of Prostate Cancer Risk Variants in a Danish Case-Control Association Study [PDF]
Diem Nguyen Bentzon, Mette Nyegaard, Anders B?rglum, Torben ?rntoft, Michael Borre, Karina Dalsgaard S?rensen
Abstract: Background: Prostate cancer is one of the main causes for cancer morbidity and mortality in Western countries. Recently, several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with prostate cancer have been identified in genome-wide association studies and multiple variant models have been developed to predict prostate cancer risk. The association between genetic markers and clinico-pathological tumor variables has, however, been inconsistent. Methods and Materials: A total of 32 previously identified prostate cancer-associated risk SNPs were genotyped in 648 prostate cancer cases and 526 age-matched controls. Family history was obtained by questionnaire. Age at diagnosis, clinical tumor variables including pre- and postoperative PSA, Gleason score, and T stage were obtained from prospectively collected clinical data (Aarhus Prostate Cancer Study). The SNPs were genotyped using Sequenom and Taqman assays and associations between SNPs, prostate cancer risk, and clinico-pathological variables were assessed. Results: Seventeen SNPs were successfully replicated in our case-control study and the association estimates were consistent with previous reports. Four markers were excluded from further analysis due to linkage disequilibrium. The cumulative effect of having the disease-associated genotype at five SNPs (rs4430796, rs6983267, rs1859962, rs1447295 and rs16901979) increased the prostate cancer risk with odds ratio 6.02 (95% CI: 2.21 - 16.38; P = 1.0 × 10–4) in patients with any combination of ≥4 markers compared with patients without any of the five SNPs (P for trend = 1.0 × 10–4). Six markers were significantly associated with clinico-pathological variables: SNP rs2735839 (GG) at locus 19q13, which is in the KLK3 gene encoding PSA, was associated with high preoperative PSA (P = 0.04), low Gleason score (P = 0.01) and low T stage (P = 0.02). Variants rs5759167 (GG/GT) (22q13) and rs7679673 (CC/CA) (4q24) were correlated with low risk for biochemical relapse (P = 0.015 and P = 0.009, respectively), whereas rs6983267 (GG) (8q24) was significantly associated with biochemical recurrence (P = 0.045). In addition, variants rs6983267 (GG) and rs5759167 (GG/GT) were significantly associated with negative family history (P = 0.04 and P = 0.02, respectively). Conclusion: We replicated 17 previously identified prostate cancer-associated risk SNPs in a Danish case-control study and found a cumulative and significant association between five SNPs and prostate cancer. Overall, we
Case Report: Acute Fatty Liver of Pregnancy [PDF]
Huynh Nguyen Khanh Trang, Hoang Thi Diem Tuyet
Open Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology (OJOG) , 2017, DOI: 10.4236/ojog.2017.710102
Abstract: Acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) is a rare disease in Vietnam. Diagnosis by recorded literature is often difficult to distinguish from viral hepatitis, paraplegia, or bile duct disease, so AFLP diagnosis is often delayed. The prevalence of hepatitis B in Vietnam in pregnant women is estimated at 10% REF _Ref494526757 \r \h [1], preeclampsia is estimated at 0.2% REF _Ref494526760 \r \h [2]. A case pregnant woman has 35.5-week gestational age with AFLP, who was safely delivered both mother and infant at Hung Vuong hospital, Vietnam. A careful history and physical examination, in conjunction with compatible laboratory and ultrasound imaging results, are often sufficient to make the diagnosis, and liver biopsy is rarely indicated. Intensive adjuvant therapy and rapid birth control are essential for maternal and fetal outcomes.
Studying on Tyrosinase Inhibition Activity of Some Vietnamese Folk Plants Aims to Use in Skin-Whitening Cosmetics [PDF]
Nguyen Thi My Hanh, Nguyen Kim Phi Phung, Quach Ngo Diem Phuong
Abstract: White mulberry Morus alba and jackfruit Artocarpus heterophyllus are two of seven chosen Vietnamese folk plants which showed the highest tyrosinase inhibition activity. Besides, both of them showed antioxidant and antibacterial activities. Especially, the Sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay test result of the root core extract of M. alba figured out its non-toxicity on foreskin fibroblasts.

American Journal of Plant Sciences (AJPS) , 2013, DOI: 10.4236/ajps.2013.412291
Two triterpenoid saponins, 6, 7, together with five known compounds were isolated from the roots of Arachis hypogea L. collected in Vietnam. Their structures were established by spectroscopic analysis (1D, 2D NMR and HRMS) as well as by comparison with those reported in the literature. Furthermore, the high content of resveratrol in the roots opens a new potential resource for pharmaceutical companies to prepare medicines from the wasted peanut roots.<?xml:namespace prefix = o />

Boundary Value Problems , 2005,
Abstract: We treat an initial boundary value problem for a nonlinear wave equation in the domain , . The boundary condition at the boundary point of the domain for a solution involves a time convolution term of the boundary value of at , whereas the boundary condition at the other boundary point is of the form with and given nonnegative constants. We prove existence of a unique solution of such a problem in classical Sobolev spaces. The proof is based on a Galerkin-type approximation, various energy estimates, and compactness arguments. In the case of , the regularity of solutions is studied also. Finally, we obtain an asymptotic expansion of the solution of this problem up to order in two small parameters , .

Influence of Chitosan Binder on the Adhesion of Silver Nanoparticles on Cotton Fabric and Evaluation of Antibacterial Activity [PDF]
Nguyen Quoc Hien, Dang Van Phu, Nguyen Ngoc Duy, Le Anh Quoc, Nguyen T. Kim Lan, Hoang T. Dong Quy, Huynh T. Hong Van, Phan Ha Nu Diem, Tran Thai Hoa
Advances in Nanoparticles (ANP) , 2015, DOI: 10.4236/anp.2015.44011
Abstract: Colloidal silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with particle size less than 10 nm and concentration of 2 mM/L (~200 mg/L) were synthesized by gamma Co-60 ray irradiation of Ag+/chitosan solutions with different chitosan concentration of 0.5%, 1% and 2% (w/v). Incorporation of AgNPs onto cotton fabric was carried out by padding method with 100% wet pick-up. The content of AgNPs deposited on cotton fabric and released from cotton fabric after repeated washing was determined by inductively couple plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES). The results indicated that cotton/AgNPs fabric made from padding into AgNPs solution with 0.5% - 1% chitosan was the best one of AgNPs adhesion ability on cotton fabric. Results on antibacterial activity against S. aureus showed that cotton/AgNPs fabric with AgNPs content more than 100 mg/kg exhibited highly antibacterial activity (η > 98%). The mechanical property (tensile strength and elongation) of cotton/AgNPs fabrics was almost unchanged in comparison with untreated cotton fabric. Thus, the resultant cotton/AgNPs fabric with highly antibacterial activity can be potentially used as bed drapes and/or patient uniforms in hospitals, etc.
Co-Infection of Parvovirus B19, CMV and BK Virus after Renal Transplantation [PDF]
Hoang Thi Diem Thuy
International Journal of Clinical Medicine (IJCM) , 2018, DOI: 10.4236/ijcm.2018.911068
Abstract: Background: Parvovirus B19 is the agent causing a regenerative anemia in organ transplant recipients, due to their immunodepressive status. The diagnosis is usually confirmed by the presence of virus in the blood and bone marrow via the PCR technique. There is a potential co-infection with other opportunistic viruses in the transplanted patients. However, this population is not routinely screened for Parvovirus B19 infection. Case Report: A 14-year-old male patient who received living-donor kidney transplantation developed a severely progressive and aregenerative anemia four weeks later. PCR of Parvovirus B19 was positive from bone marrow aspiration. There were concomittant CMV and BK virus co-infection. The treatment included a reduction of immunosuppressants, intravenous gamma globulin. Valganciclovir has been prescribed for three months that could negativate the CMV blood load. At the end, there was an eradication of parvovirus in the bone marrow. Conclusion: This first reported case in Viet Nam which informed that infection with Parvovirus B19 should be investigated in the transplanted population when a regenerative anemia is present. Otherwise, a screening strategy for Parvovirus B19 should also be considered.

How Black Knight Is Connected To Blade?
The recent release of MCU, Eternals, include a post-credits scene where a connection between Black Knight (Kit Harington) and Blade (Mahershala Ali) was shown.
Warning: This Article includes Spoilers from the movie Eternals.
Eternals is a new storyline of superheroes introduced in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Eternals are the cosmic being who have protected the plated Earth from Deviants for thousands of years. After their fight with Deviants were over, the Eternals were commanded to start their lives on Earth as a regular human being.
Eternals is the twenty-sixth film of the Marvel Cinematic Universe directed by Chloé Zhao and released in November 2021. Eternals, a team of cosmic beings, include ten new superheroes which are Ajak (Salma Hayek), Sersi (Gamma Chen), Ikaris (Richard Madden), Kingo (Kumail Nanjiani), Sprite (Lia McHugh), Phastos (Brian Tyree Henry), Makkari (Lauren Ridloff), Druig (Barry Keoghan), Gilgamesh (Don Lee) and Thena (Angelina Jolie).
Apart from the team of Eternals, another character was introduced in the starting, a human being named Dane Whitman (Kit Harington), who fell in love with Sersi. Dane, a mortal human being and Sersi, an Eternal, got into a relationship, and their moments were witnessed at the beginning and end of the movie.
Eternals movie is not only introducing Eternals in the MCU but also responsible for setting up other important characters in the MCU. In one of the post-credits scenes, Eros, Thanos' brother, was shown contacting Makkari, Thena and Druig.
In the other post-credits scene, Dane Whitman was shown opening a box with his family crest on it, which included the Ebony Blade, which will make him the Black Knight from the Marvel Comics. Along with Dane Whitman, an off-screen voice was heard asking Dane whether he was ready for it or not?; the voice was of Mahershala Ali, aka Blade.
Although the role of Kit Harington as Dane Whitman had a small role to play in Eternals movie, MCU is setting up a big future project which might include the journey of Dane Whitman becoming the Black Knight he is destined to be.
Dane Whitman was given a piece of advice from Sersi that he should sort things out with his uncle, as Sersi knew the world was possible coming to an end. However, Sersi saved the planet Earth and afterwards, when she came back to Dane Whitman, Dane was about to tell her secret family history, which he got to know from his uncle. But in between, they were interrupted when Sersi was taken by Arishem, the Prime Celestial Being, which motivated Dane Whitman to open the box of his family crest and use the sword to save Sersi.
In the second post-credits scene, including Mahershala Ali's voice cameo, fans are pondering upon the questions about the connection between the Blade and the Black Knight hinted in the Eternals movie. There is a high possibility of future projects of MCU, including Black Knight, Dane Whitman and Blade appearing together.
1 Why does Blade talk to Dane Whitman, aka Black Knight in Eternals' Post Credits Scene?
2 History of Blade & Black Knight – Marvel Comics
3 What Eternals is Setting up MCU's Future of Blade & Black Knight?
Why does Blade talk to Dane Whitman, aka Black Knight in Eternals' Post Credits Scene?
The decision made by Dane Whitman to use the Ebony Blade in the post-credits scene of the Eternals and will become the Black Knight will become a big moment in the MCU future, Black Knight movie. However, the off-screen voice of Mahershala Ali, Blade, is questioning Dane Whitman whether he is ready for it?
The Blade is a Marvel Comics character who has superhuman strength and is able to deal with the supernatural and mystical side of the Marvel Universe. This is the reason why Blade is contacting Dane Whitman before he becomes Black Knight. It was not clear in the movie whether Blade is in the same room with Dane Whitman or he is talking to him through other means.
Blade's human name is Eric Brooks, who is trying to beware Dane Whitman of using Ebony Blade as the description written on the box, 'Death Is His Reward,' gives a hint that using that sword will succumb the person to its' violence.
Blade warning Dane Whitman about Ebony Blade gives a sign that Blade is already aware of Ebony Blade and its powers. The Blade is one of the most skilled swordsmen in the Marvel Universe, which makes it obvious that Blade has the knowledge of Dane Whitman's Ebony Blade, a new weapon.
It is a high possibility that Blade came in contact with one of the family members of Dane's family who has used the Ebony Blade for various dark purposes. Knowing the results of using Ebony Blade, Blade explains why he came to warn Dane Whitman in the post-credits scene of Eternals.
History of Blade & Black Knight – Marvel Comics
The Blade talking at the end of Eternals to Dane Whitman will probably become the biggest surprise to the audience and diehard Marvel fans because these two of them doesn't have a strong connection between them in Marvel Comics. This can become one of the classic examples of how Marvel Cinematic Universe adapts major characters in new and unique ways to fit the shared Universe.
However, one connection between Marvel Black Knight and Blade Comics is that both of them are members of MI13, which Captain Britain leads. As Blade is from the UK in the Comics, he was called up to work with the team to solve the Secret Invasion. Blade and Black Knight's time together didn't last long as Blade tried to kill one of the members of MI13.
In Marvel Comics, Blade and Black Knight were not together for a very long time, but they both were present in the other superhero teams comics. Their crossovers in the comics are not really thrilling, but their encounter in the MCU can influence their time as Avengers.
In Marvel Comics history, both Blade and Black Knight were the members of Avengers, and once Blade became the leader of Avengers. However, Blade never officially served as Avenger, but Marvel Cinematic Universe can change that. In the recent premiere, both Blade and Black Knight are crossing paths that can indicate their strong connection in the MCU future movies.
What Eternals is Setting up MCU's Future of Blade & Black Knight?
The Eternals post-credits scene hinting at a connection between Blade and Black Knight gives us numerous possibilities of both of their future appearances in MCU. It looks like Kit Harington as Dane Whitman, aka Black Knight, will be witnessing Mahershala Ali's Blade on the screen alongside him.
Another possibility is that Blade and Black Knight could appear in other projects like Moon Knight or Marvel's Halloween Special for Disney+ centred around Warewolf by Night. If any of that didn't happen, there is always a possibility that Marvel could create a Black Knight Disney+ show or film casting Mahershala Ali as Blade and Kit Harington as Black Knight in it. At the least possible, both of them could appear as part of the Avengers 5 team with other MCU characters.
Regardless of where Blade and Black Knight will be shown in the MCU, their introduction in the Eternals can start a possibility of Marvel Studios starting the formation of MI13. The multiverse Phase 4 has continued to be explored in detail; however, the UK area is still haven't been touched a lot. Blade and Black Knight could become the first British superheroes joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe, opening the doors for others.
Additionally, one project of MCU can position Black Knight with Midnight Sons, the biggest supernatural teams that will use superheroes like Blade, Doctor Strange, Iron Fist, Moon Knight, Elsa Bloodstone, and many more. However, the Black Knight is not associated with Midnight Sons in Marvel Comics, but MCU can easily change that.
With so many possibilities of Blade and Black Knight coming together in the future MCU projects, the fans are thrilled and eager to see both of them side-by-side in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

/ TEACH 'EM KIDS - fabrik - maker series, chapter 32 [July 2020]
Teach 'Em Kids
Vanessa Coquelle, Photographer, Belgium
Vanessa or, according to her own words Jeff Buckley impersonator with a camera, transforms the ordinary everyday into an extraordinary everyday exuding life.
Fabrik: Hi Vanessa! Tell us a little bit more about yourself and your work.
Vanessa Coquelle: My name is Vanessa Coquelle. I teach, I write and I shoot. I left France and started teaching in 2012 right after my mother passed away. I'm a language teacher in Schaerbeek, one of Brussels' most multicultural neighbourhoods. I had no idea what to expect when I got that teaching job, but the sense of warmth my students gave me exceeded all my expectations - to the point where, contrary to most of my colleagues, I feel safer in my classroom with them than in the staff room. It was supposed to be a substitute job. I never left.
I started shooting photography at the very beginning of 2015. Before that, I was the annoying person who would take pictures at shows with her cellphone. I've always been into shows, full front stage, diving deep in the sound. Most of the time, there were live photographers around. I used to envy them and their alleged ease to convey whatever was going on in there, compared to a girl who would spend hours writing about music on her way back home.
When I bought my first camera, the first thing I did was carry it along to a show. It was a Triptykon concert. There was a guy playing the guitar called V. Santura who was wearing some kind of corpse paint that was so well done it looked like a freaking Kardashian contouring. I was blown away. But as far as photography goes, I felt nothing special. Nothing at all.
That night, it was clear live photography wasn't meant to be. I never felt comfortable with the position it puts me in. I'm much more into people, portraits, candids. People I can feel close to. I got myself a very small camera, no zoom, no flash. All I wanted was to feel close to the people who caught my eye. I don't think I ever took photography seriously. People took it seriously for me, and it just freaked me out.
Fabrik:I would like to go a little bit behind the scenes regarding your series 'Teach 'Em Kids'. What was the inspiration behind that? Tell us a bit more about the process.
Vanessa Coquelle: "Teach 'em kids" is the result of a 4-year long constant diary of a two-way trust between my students and me. It's a series I edited at the very end of a burn out, right before going back to work - only to share it a year later. Long story short, I needed to remember why I loved my teaching job so much. It's a dozen pictures among many more - thousands, maybe, I stopped counting.
"Teach 'em kids" was shot between classes, choir sessions, field trips, football games and other tiny bits of life outside school. There's the one who asked me what the Pride was about and ended up bringing half a class with her for support. There's the one who went to the woods for the first time of his life at the age of 14. There's the one I went to the dentist's with as a joke when she decided to take her braces off. There's the one who organized a whole surprise birthday party for me. There's the one who came to kick my ass when I was on medical leave so I could go back to work and kick some more asses.
There's something really peculiar about the relationship I have with them. I couldn't teach the way I teach in France, and I couldn't teach the way I teach anywhere else in Brussels, with other kids. Sometimes they call me "Coach", sometimes they even call me by my name, I don't care - because calling you "Miss" isn't always how respect works. I'd rather have them develop their own curiosity than giving them detention for a forgotten homework. I call them my human tiramisu, because they always lift my spirit, and here's what I learned from them: teaching is a two-way street.

Jet Crew Tell Of Close Encounter With UFO
An unidentified object described as "a great red light in the sky" and "big as a battleship" has caused consternation in the skies over the North Sea. Pilots reported being buzzed by a "long, cylindrical object" at 28,000ft and one pilot and his crew described how the underside of their jet became bathed in an "incandescent light".
The Civil Aviation Authority has confirmed that a comprehensive report of the sightings has been handed in, although both it and the Ministry of Defence deny that they are investigating it. The Luton-based plane, a Debonair BAe146, was flying company executives from Sweden to Humberside airport when, it is claimed, the object came to a sudden halt before speeding by the airliner in the incident on 3 February, 58 miles off the coast of Denmark.
I have today (5-4-99) obtained a copy of the official report by Debonair to the Civil Aviation Authority concerning the above sighting, which occurred on 3 February 1999. The report was filed as "a mandatory occurrence report" and the CAA were taking no further action as "there was no danger to the aircraft or passengers."
A spokesman for Debonair said the pilot is currently on leave and a request has been put out for him to make a statement to the press when he returns. It was added that the pilot assumed the lights beneath the jet were those of another aircraft at the time they were seen. She said the company had been "snowed under" with inquiries from the press about the sighting.
The Debonair report to the CAA report reads:
"Unidentified bright light below BAe146 at FL280.
"Area below a/c illuminated for 10 seconds by incandescent light which was not considered by reporter to be an a/c landing light.
Reporter stated three other a/c reported seeing it moving at high speed or static. ATC informed but they reported no other a/c in vicinity. Five minutes later a radar return was present at 75 miles on weather radar. Atmosphere reported as stable and no other a/c were in vicinity."
The aircraft involved was a British Aerospace 146, a small four engined jet flying on a chartered flight from Linkoping in Sweden to Humberside Airport in East Yorkshire.
The UFO was reported whilst the aircraft was flying at 28,000 feet, 58 miles off the Danish coast above the North Sea. Tracey Law, of Humberside Airport, said the report was made by the pilot to the CAA on landing, but there was "no mention made whatsoever of UFOs in the original report..it has since been embellished. It was not mentioned to us officially as it happened outside of our airspace."
In particular she mentioned the description of the UFO as being "as big as a battleship" being manufactured by the press, Humberside Airport said they believed the sighting had been caused by "a light reflection from the underside of the jet." Flight Lieutenant Tom Rounds of the RAF at the Ministry of Defence, Whitehall, said the MOD had learned of the report via the Press.
He said stories that the object had been tracked by RAF radar were "laughable" as the UK radar could not pick up objects 58 miles off the Danish coast.
Flt Lieut Rounds said the MOD were not investigating the report, and had not received any report concerning it from the CAA.
