June 23rd marks the 40th anniversary of Title IX, one of the most significant statutes ever signed into law for women. I am one of millions of women who have personally benefitted from Title IX. The opportunities and experiences that I have had as a result of being a high school and collegiate basketball player have helped me get to where I am today. The lessons I learned from the commitment of being a basketball player have stayed with me through my life, and the friendships I developed through athletics are some of my closest relationships. I see these same aspects now in my female patients, from high school athletes to the professional women?s basketball players I care for on the New York Liberty. They are all an inspiration to me and are the reasons I love my career choice so much.
Overall, women earn the majority of degrees now.
Women getting law degrees have gone from 7% to 47% from 1972 to 2010.
Women getting medical degrees have gone from 9% to 48%.
Girls participating in high school athletics have increased from under 300,000 (1 in 27) in 1972 to over 3 million (1 in 2.5) last year.
College athletic participation has increased 400%.
They are more likely to graduate.
They have less unplanned pregnancies.
They are less likely to use drugs, be obese, be depressed, and commit suicide.
They also reap the many other medical benefits of regular activity.
Thanks to Title IX, millions of women can now realize their dreams. So to those who made Title IX a reality, and to all the early female athlete pioneers who led the way for today?s women, thank you for making my life and the lives of millions of other women so meaningful.

After 5 rounds played we can already see who rules in the National League and who belongs to weaker ones. Here is the last round review presented by ESL.
The most crucial game of the last round was the first loss of undefeated Almat.Legion (3-1) in Alma-Ata on Wednesday night. Hosts were defeated by second ranked Tobol (5-3) 73-66. Tobol have a solid series of three victories in a row. They maintain second place with 5-3 record having just three points less than leader Astana. Newly promoted Almat.Legion dropped to the fourth position with one game lost. Tobol are looking forward to face Barsy Atyrau (#3) on the road in the next round, which may be the game of the day. Almat.Legion will play against Kaspiy Aktau and is hoping to prove to their supporters that the loss was just an accident.
Important game to mention about took place in Alma-Ata. Fifth ranked Almat.Legion (3-1) saved a 3-point victory at home edging second-ranked Tobol (5-3) 82-79 on Thursday evening. It ended at the same time the three-game winning streak of Tobol. Almat.Legion moved-up to fourth place. Tobol at the other side keeps the second position with three games lost. Almat.Legion will play against bottom-ranked Kaspiy Aktau (#7) on the road in the next round. Tobol will play against Barsy Atyrau (#3) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
Another exciting game was a derby match between two local teams from Atyrau: Barsy Atyrau (#3) and Barsy 2 (#4). Barsy 2 was crushed at home by 38 points 72-110 and even the advantage of their own court did not help. Barsy Atyrau have a solid series of three victories in a row. They maintain third place with 4-2 record having six points less than leader Astana. Newly promoted Barsy 2 dropped to the fifth position with seven games lost. Barsy Atyrau will meet at home league's second-placed Tobol in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Barsy 2 will have a break next round.
Another exciting game was again a derby between two teams from Atyrau: Barsy Atyrau (#3) and Barsy 2 (#4). Barsy 2 was crushed at home by 27 points 73-100 and even the fact of playing on their own court did not help. Barsy Atyrau have a solid series of three victories in a row. They maintain third place with 4-2 record having six points less than leader Astana. Newly promoted Barsy 2 dropped to the fifth position with seven games lost. Barsy Atyrau's next round opponent will be league's second-placed Tobol in Kostanay and it will be for sure the game of the week.


Kingman was chosen as a crossroads for the region long before it was even a city.
In the late 1800s as rail lines were being plotted, railroad surveyor Lewis Kingman recognized the area for its strategic importance, and selected it as the major southern route for rail commerce.
Well over a century later Kingman remains a vital link on the Burlington Northern - Santa Fe, with daily Amtrak service to Los Angeles or points east.


Pedro Ojeda and Kelsey Kimball construct a masterpiece Aug. 30, 2018, as their day in Mrs. Scheidt's preschool class comes to a close.
The California preschool has just begun its sixth year, and things are going well.
Time and resources have made it possible for the district to add a second classroom for children in preparation for kindergarten.
This addition welcomed Jamie Shewmake to the mix to take on the endeavor with Kimberly Scheidt. Scheidt explained the two teachers share the responsibility of making sure their students hone their "social skills, sharing, friendship and academic success."
Keeping true to his own responsibilities, California Elementary School Principal Gary Baker spent a part of the summer finding ways to make the program even better.
"I found that all research has shown that children have the ability to learn and grow academically earlier and quicker," Baker said. "We found that it was important to keep true to academic focus in order to prepare these students for kindergarten. By doing this we can have them start early with literacy and recognition."
Baker went on to explain benefits of having the preschool within the elementary school building. The first is to have all students be familiar with the building and its rules. The second benefit allows students to get accustomed to their contemporaries.
"Most other daycares and preschools have kids of all different ages in their enrollment," Baker said. "Other children have really only been around their parents for three years. But here, they're all the same age and can interact and learn with kids their own age."
While progress in all areas of the elementary school has been taking hold, there does seem to be one glaring issue the building is facing — space.
For the past 25 years, Baker said, student enrollment has not fluctuated. That is until three years ago when the school saw a 10 percent growth.
As of today, the student enrollment is at approximately 660, while 100 staff members are in the building as well. The school is looking to the upcoming 2020 bond issue to fix that potential problem.
"In theory, half of the district is in this building," Baker said of the elementary school. "It's really the next logical place to focus on a bond issue. We really have no more classroom space, so we want to look at the primary (preschool) building to help it expand."
Meanwhile, Scheidt continues to work closely with her administrators, Shewmake and Julie Bird, Director of Special Programs/Federal Program Coordinator, to keep her students on track. With weekly meetings to ensure teaching methods are fine tuned to how her students learn, Scheidt said the process has been promising.
"Everything is going very well," Scheidt said. "The kiddos soak up so much and they really want to learn. When they do pick up on something new, they're always so proud of themselves and want to do a good job. They want to be big kids and learn as much as they can. They do that through play, learning social interactions and we always keep close to rules and expectations when it comes to academics."
The future of the preschool program is glowing brightly. Ever working to keep their students learning and growing, Baker says it's all about adapting.
"Every year is different," Baker said. "But the engagement in the classroom is second to none. These are our students and we want to give them anything and everything we can, they need to grow. The state is helping us with our want and desire to have more. Right now, we're looking at different bonds to make this happen, because I just don't want to see this falling on our district and taxpayers."

Eyewitness Accounts of the Explosion at Trinity on July 16, 1945
- Edwin M. McMillan
I shall try to describe the Trinity test as seen from the "Hill Station", twenty miles from the event. None of my estimates of times or magnitudes can be considered very accurate, as I have found by comparison with others a wide variation, illustrating the difficulty of personal judgment without instruments.
The shot went off at about 5:30 a.m., just before sunrise. I was watching the shot through a piece of dark glass such as is used in welders' helmets. An exceedingly bright light appeared and expanded very rapidly. I was aware of a sensation of heat on my face and hands, which lasted about a second. After about two seconds, I took the glass away. The sky and surrounding landscape were brightly illuminated, but not as strongly as in full sunlight. The "ball of fire" was still too bright for direct observation, but it could be seen to be rising and expanding and slowly fading out. At some time during this stage, the layers of clouds visible above the explosion evaporated, forming a hole which rapidly got bigger.
At about thirty seconds, the general appearance was similar to a goblet; the ball I estimated to be about a mile in diameter and about four miles above the ground, glowing with a dull red; a dark stem connected it with the ground, and spread out in a thin dust layer that extended to a radius of about six miles. When the red glow faded out a most remarkable effect made its appearance. The whole surface of the ball was covered with a purple luminescence, like that produced by the electrical excitation of air, and caused undoubtedly by the radioactivity of the material in the ball. This was visible for about five seconds; by this time the sunlight was becoming bright enough to obscure luminous effects.
At some time near the end of the luminescence (I am not sure whether it was before or after) a great cloud broke out of the top of the ball and rose very rapidly to a height of about eight miles, expanding to a rather irregular shape several times as large as the ball. At about two mintes, the blast came. It was remarkably sharp, being more of a "crack" than a "boom". I did not feel any earth shock.
The later stages of motion of the cloud consisted of a slow drifting in the wind, showing the existence of several different wind directions at different altitudes. A current at a few hundred feet carrying the lower part of the "stem" toward the North 10,000 station was particularly striking. The cloud was a different color than the ordinary clouds through which it passed, having a brownish tinge; this could be caused by nitrogen dioxide formed from air by the intense ionization.
The whole spectacle was so tremendous and one might almost say fantastic that the immediate reaction of the watchers was one of awe rather than excitement. After some minutes of silence, a few people made remarks like, "Well, it worked," and then conversation and discussion became general. I am sure that all who witnessed this test went away with a profound feeling that they had seen one of the great events of history.

Bruce Springsteen cancels North Carolina concert, shows more guts than NBA, NFL, NCAA
The Boss makes a bold statement.
By Jim Buzinski Apr 8, 2016, 1:16pm PDT
Share All sharing options for: Bruce Springsteen cancels North Carolina concert, shows more guts than NBA, NFL, NCAA
Streeter Lecka/Getty Images
The NFL, NBA and NCAA say all the right things about opposing discrimination, blah, blah, blah, but have done nothing about acting in the face of North Carolina's anti-LGBT law.
Bruce Springsteen shows them how it's done, by canceling his Sunday concert set for Greensboro. He posted this on his Facebook page today:
As you, my fans, know I'm scheduled to play in Greensboro, North Carolina this Sunday. As we also know, North Carolina has just passed HB2, which the media are referring to as the "bathroom" law. HB2 — known officially as the Public Facilities Privacy and Security Act — dictates which bathrooms transgender people are permitted to use. Just as important, the law also attacks the rights of LGBT citizens to sue when their human rights are violated in the workplace. No other group of North Carolinians faces such a burden.
To my mind, it's an attempt by people who cannot stand the progress our country has made in recognizing the human rights of all of our citizens to overturn that progress. Right now, there are many groups, businesses, and individuals in North Carolina working to oppose and overcome these negative developments. Taking all of this into account, I feel that this is a time for me and the band to show solidarity for those freedom fighters.
As a result, and with deepest apologies to our dedicated fans in Greensboro, we have canceled our show scheduled for Sunday, April 10th. Some things are more important than a rock show and this fight against prejudice and bigotry — which is happening as I write — is one of them. It is the strongest means I have for raising my voice in opposition to those who continue to push us backwards instead of forwards.
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band's Sunday April 10th show is canceled. Tickets will be refunded at point of purchase.
That is how it's done. And sports leagues shouldn't say another word about their "support" unless it's accompanied by action.

Robert Barlow, Mukhtar Khan, Bart Farell; Time of day and glucose modulate visual sensitivity. Journal of Vision 2003;3(9):356. doi: 10.1167/3.9.356.
Glucose and oxygen power our visual system. Our metabolic state is not constant: blood glucose levels and utilization decrease at night. We investigated how time of day and metabolic state influence visual sensitivity. We used a 2AFC psychophysical paradigm to measure contrast sensitivity and multifocal ERG (mERG) to measure retinal sensitivity. We tested subjects day and night and in various metabolic states set by a Glucose Clamp Technique (GCT) or Glucose Tolerance test (GTT). Testing subjects over a 48h period, we found up to 4-fold increases in contrast thresholds at night. The threshold increases correlated with mild nocturnal hypoglycemia controlled by endogenous circadian oscillators. Inducing hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia artificially with GCT and GTT respectively, we found up to 6-fold decreases in contrast sensitivity evoked by moderate hypoglycemia (∼50–60mg/dl) and up to 3-fold increases in sensitivity evoked by moderate hyperglycemia (>200mg/dl). Severe hypoglycemia (∼40mg/dl) can transiently block central vision (∼15deg). Preliminary mERG recordings show that moderate hypoglycemia can decrease the amplitude of the "b-wave" generated by central retina (5deg) but not that generated by peripheral retina (>10deg). Moderate hyperglycemia, on the other hand, appears to uniformly up regulate retinal sensitivity. We conclude that metabolic state can modulate visual sensitivity and suggest that central vision may be more sensitive to metabolic stress (hypoglycemia) than peripheral vision. mERG recordings indicate that the metabolic modulation of visual sensitivity begins in the retina.

A year and a half after the release of Cosmic Hallelujah, Kenny Chesney has returned with a brand new single, "Get Along," and it's the first taste of the country star's upcoming new album -- one that is said to be his most personal album to date.
We heard all about his new single, how expensive his stadium tours are and all about his island living. Watch the full interview below!

NIH makes its coronavirus genomic data publicly accessible in the cloud
Written by Dave Nyczepir
Aug 18, 2020 | FEDSCOOP
The National Institutes of Health is making genomic data about the coronavirus publicly accessible to researchers in the cloud for the first time.
Created by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, the Coronavirus Genome Sequence Dataset consists of researcher-submitted data, including normalized Sequence Read Archive (SRA) file formats. The SRA is a bioinformatics repository of DNA sequences.
Researchers with active NIH awards can now quickly access the dataset at no cost via the Registry of Open Data on Amazon Web Services, and the agency plans to make it available on more public data cloud platforms.
"Containing COVID-19 outbreaks and preparing for future pandemics will require a deep understanding of the SARS-CoV-2 genome in the context of other COVID-19 patients and the broader Coronaviridae family," said Ryan Layer, assistant professor at the University of Colorado Boulder's BioFrontiers Institute, in a statement. "The NCBI Coronavirus Genome Sequence Dataset makes over a decade of viral genome data publicly accessible for researchers, empowering anyone in the research community to participate in the pandemic response."
The dataset contains more than 13,000 SRA runs, NIH says. The project is part of the NIH Science and Technology Research Infrastructure for Discovery, Experimentation, and Sustainability (STRIDES) initiative. STRIDES is a collaboration between NIH and AWS to use the cloud to assist researchers with active NIH awards.
The data being made available will help researchers understand not only COVID-19 but other pandemic diseases. Differences in genetic sequences among infected patients help researchers determine how quickly the virus is evolving, and genetics are thought to play a role in how patients react to infection. Diagnostic testing can also be fine tuned.
The dataset itself consists of two buckets: one containing raw and normalized files categorized by SRA accession code and another containing accession metadata that will soon be queryable within the Amazon Athena interactive query service.

QicoBay Launches Kickstarter Campaign for C1 Portable Dental Flosser
Improve dental health while reducing environmental impact
STATE COLLEGE, PA, UNITED STATES, November 16, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — QicoBay has announced the launch of a Kickstarter campaign to fund the development of the C1 portable flosser. The new device is designed to help eliminate plastic waste and offers a convenient way to floss anywhere, anytime. The C1 is perfect for on-the-go dental hygiene with a simple design and easy-to-use functionality. Backers can receive exclusive early bird discounts on the C1.
There are currently two main types of dental floss: conventional floss and floss picks. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Conventional floss is made of nylon or other synthetic materials. It can be used multiple times and produces minimal plastic waste. However, it can be difficult to use, and users need to wash their hands before and after using it to keep it clean. The biggest problem with conventional dental floss is that it can be difficult to use. It can be awkward to hold and maneuver, and it's easy to accidentally cut the gums.
Floss picks are a bit easier to use, but they still have their drawbacks. They're not as portable as traditional floss but don't require users to wash their hands before or after use. However, they do produce plastic waste, as they are single-use products. Floss picks are also hard to keep clean when on the go since they're exposed to the air.
The QicoBay C1 is a flosser that has been designed with both simplicity and environmental friendliness in mind. The flosser is made from recycled materials and can be reused multiple times, meaning that there is no need to keep buying new plastic floss picks. The C1 also features a self-sanitizing design, which helps to reduce the amount of waste that is produced. Simply push the Q-button to extend the head threaded with a fresh piece of floss. Just push and floss! The QicoBay C1 is an easy and effective way to protect your teeth and reduce environmental impact.
The sleek capsule container of the QicoBay C1 doubles as a long, ergonomic grip, enabling users to easily reach their back teeth. At 10.5cm wide, the QicoBay C1 is longer than standard floss picks for easier access to those hard-to-reach molars. Simply push the button again to retract and sterilize when finished. Because it magically strings itself on a push of the Q-button, the QicoBay C1 is always ready to go. The floss system contains built-in tension control that allows for a gentle flossing action that is effective yet gentle on the gums.
QicoBay's design is both sleek and functional. The space for new and used portions of floss keeps them separate and easy to access. The silver ion antimicrobial material protects against bacteria and other microorganisms. The protective case pops on to keep dust and other germs out of the QicoBay C1 when it is not in use. Each floss capsule contains enough floss for 100 uses and is replaceable. The case itself is made from recyclable materials and comes in a variety of colors.

This state-of-the-art system utilizes a troweled-on cementitious topping that tenaciously bonds to virtually any substrate, including concrete, wood, metal, plastic or asphalt. Not confined to the standard color palette or color limitations of chemical stains, Micro-Top succeeds where other coloring methods have failed. Micro-Top provides a canvas where works of art are graphically produced. Create a unique, visual dialog with your environment – inside or out – utilizing custom logos, unlimited graphics, swirls of color or marbleized hues to reach the perfect color combination. Micro-Top can be installed as interior flooring, spotted as accent areas, continued up a wall, traversed up the side of a building or applied directly to a street section. From retail centers to theme parks, restaurants to hotels, commercial offices to residential applications, Micro-Top makes a bold statement of individual style and personality. Micro-Top provides a durable, colorfast, high-strength graphic splash to any project. Color and design can transform existing, damaged concrete or other materials into art forms without affecting surrounding materials and fixtures. Micro-Top can also take expanses of plain, gray concrete and transform those spaces into distinctive and dynamic areas, placing color where color could not normally be placed. When a laminate floor or carpet is removed, no costly, abrasive blasting is normally required before Micro-Top is applied over the substrate, saving both time and money.

I'm a Pastel Landscape Artist based in Ashdown Forest (between East Grinstead and Uckfield) in East Sussex. I specialise in views of Ashdown Forest and the wider Sussex countryside and have been producing art and picture framing, for the last 20 years.
Despite my Yorkshire roots (and occasional Northern outbursts), I have now lived in Nutley in the picturesque Ashdown Forest for the last 27 years – still not quite a local!
Ashdown Forest has always been special to me and I strongly suspect I would not have been an artist at all if it wasn't for the inspiring subject matter right on my doorstep. Even on the gloomiest of days, there is artistic treasure out there waiting to be discovered.
Art is a pursuit I never expected to follow. I had previously trained as a bilingual secretary and worked in the power, marine and construction industries.
It all began on a February day in 1991 with an impulse buy of equipment and stock from a retiring picture framer. In search of customers, I joined a local art class run by Royal Academy - trained tutor, Geoffrey Colbourne. I soon realised there was a market for my work…
The next few years saw the business developing. Customer numbers increased and links were formed with the National Trust at Standen where I staged solo exhibitions and tutored day workshops. My range of limited edition prints and cards grew and I invested in the equipment to produce my own giclee images. I became interested in both the conservation and tourism side of Ashdown Forest and its villages, working with Elite Hotels (Ashdown Park), High Weald AONB Unit and local tourist attractions.
I joined the Ashdown Forest Tourism Association (AFTA) and Tourism South East. Being filmed for ITV's "Tales from the Country" with Selina Scott was exciting and I have also appeared on various public information films. I am reliably informed that my work has found its way to all corners of the globe and at last count I have sold over five hundred original paintings and several thousand prints.
My business, Cogcraft in Nutley, is my usual centre of operations and every available space has been commandeered. My passion for conservation also runs into the arts and I buy and sell antique prints, often rescuing them from unstable framing and acid-laden backboards. Visitors are most welcome and there is generally a pastel on my easel, but a phone call is very much appreciated. Please contact me to arrange a viewing.

I am a Russian-born multi-media artist based in East Sussex.
From an early age, I was exposed to art culture and studied fine art in musical school back in my home town in Russia at the age of 8 - 9, before moving to England.
Intuitively, I was always drawn to art and decided to take fine art in school at GSCE, passing with an A* grade to further my learning. At this moment, I couldn't find my voice in art and began exploring other mediums such as graphic design, clay making, photography and much more.
That period helped me form my understanding and relationship with art as a whole, creating confidence and voice, helping me use paint as my own language to speak to the inner and outer world.

Approximately 600,000 people in the UK are now believed to have dementia. This figure represents 5% of the total population aged 65 and over, with Alzheimer's disease accounting for 60% of all cases. Interestingly, suffering from depression at a younger age may be a significant risk factor for dementia.1 In fact, it is thought that sufferers from major depression are at double the risk of developing dementia later in life compared to individuals who have not suffered with depression. Difficulties often arise at the time of diagnosis, as similarities in symptoms between dementia and depression have often meant the two may be confused.
The increasing scientific focus on the mechanisms that occur within the body and brain of both depressed patients and those with dementia has linked the two conditions to an increase in inflammation within areas of the brain. If chronic inflammatory changes are a common feature of depression, this could predispose depressed patients to neurodegenerative changes in later life. For example, neuronal loss is a common feature of both major depression and dementia.
It is believed that the progress from depression to dementia could result from the activation of specific immune cells (macrophages) in the blood and specialist cells (microglia) in the brain that release destructive products called pro-inflammatory cytokines. These cytokines stimulate a cascade of inflammatory changes, including the production of more pro-inflammatory cytokines as well as the over production of the stress hormone cortisol. Excess cortisol inhibits the production of various proteins required to repair damaged neuronal networks. In addition, toxic end products accumulate in neurones and other cells, called astrocytes, that normally function to provide nourishment to neurones, as well as being involved in the removal of neuronal 'debris' through a process known as phagocytosis.
Thus, increased neurodegeneration, reduced neuroprotection and neuronal repair are common pathological features of major depression. Structural brain changes caused by inflammation have been detected in depressed patients by a process called MRI scanning and have been reported in several brain regions. Similar findings have been reported in Alzheimer's and Huntington's disease, a particularly severe and aggressive form of dementia.
There is a further common feature shared by both major depression and dementia, in that both are associated with low levels of omega-3 fatty acids and both respond well to treatment using omega-3 fatty acids derived from fish oil. However, what is also key to the success of the treatment of these conditions is the type of omega-3 used. Fish oil contains both EPA and DHA; whilst DHA is the major structural fatty acid contributing significantly to the composition of neuronal networks, EPA appears to be primarily involved as a neuroprotectant. Indeed, DHA at a dose of 2 g/day has been shown to have no beneficial effect on cognitive and functional abilities after 18 months of supplementation.2 These findings seem particularity striking given that individuals within the DHA supplemented group started the trial with low baseline DHA, with levels increasing to within a normal range during the trial, but without evidence of any benefit.
Experts have long known that depression and dementia often co-exist, but it is not clear if one actually leads to the other. Whilst there is an element of genetic predisposition related to some specific types of dementia progression, dementia is not considered to be a part of the normal aging process. Knowing that depression is a risk factor for developing dementia, and that depression can be treated successfully with ethyl-EPA, depressed individuals who supplement with ethyl-EPA may indirectly be protected against developing dementia later in life.
Chronic inflammation is now considered to be central to the pathogenesis not only of such conditions such as major depression and dementia, but also medical disorders as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer. If the chronic inflammatory changes observed in these conditions can be at least partially reversed simply by raising omega-3 EPA levels, this supports the use of supplementation as a preventive tool against disease development.

News that matter to you!
Make sure you didn't do any of these five things when you applied to your last global development job.
Many employers in development have a specific resume template they prefer or even require.
When you see a CV template attached to a Devex job, make sure you use it when applying.
A common mistake I see even experienced global development professionals make is leaving off the name of the donor who funded a project they worked on.
Because donor experience is so important to global development employers, not including this key detail may give the impression that you lack specific experience that you actually have.
While Save the Children or GOPA may have been your direct employer, if the project you managed was funded by the U.S Agency for International Development or EuropeAid, make sure you include both the implementer and the funder in your work experience.
However, most recruiters do not have the time to review dozens of pages in a CV.
Very few will take the time to review a CV beyond three to five pages.
What other mistakes have you seen people make when applying to global development jobs?
Visit our career center for expert advice on how to navigate your job search – all you need is a Devex Career Account to get started.
8/ 8. References. aggressivebull/statigr.am If your employers want to speak to your references, they'll ask you. Also, it's better if you have a chance to tell your references ahead of time that a future employer might be calling. If you write "references upon request" at the bottom of your résumé, you're merely wasting a valuable line, career coach Eli Amdur says.

Halal Africa to release 'The Moment', an album featuring Ghana's Akesse Brempong and others
Local NewsGospel News
By Sellas Manna Last updated Nov 6, 2020
Following a live gospel recording that took place on 8th November 2019, Centurion, South Africa, one of the biggest worship gatherings in South Africa, Halal Africa is set to release their second live recording album 'The Moment' on the 15th of November 2020.
This highly anticipated new album features Ghana gospel reggae/ragga/Afrobeat kingpin and 'Blessed' singer Akesse Brempong.
The new album also features top gospel singers from the African continent and around the world. This includes Micah Stampley, Nigeria's 'Ebezina' global hitmaker, Preye Odede, and South Africa's gospel music vocal goddess, Ntokozo Mbambo.
Benjamin Dube, Takesure Owen, Ayanda Ntanzi, USA-based contemporary gospel sensation, Michael Stuckey, Alice Kimanzi, Takie Ndou, and Taela Robinson are also expected to have their portion on this highly acclaimed album.
"The Moment is an electrifying, spirit-charged gospel album that was recorded from our 2019 event in, Centurion, South Africa. The idea behind the live recording is to take a moment to discover the unexpected beauty of God's presence through quality praise and worship. God does not ask us for much other than to give him praise and worship at all times. Why not take a moment to attend this concert and enjoy the full experience of being in God's presence through worship?"
About Halal Africa
Halal Africa is the brainchild of two brothers, Daniel and Godfred Onnomah. Growing up in a close, Christian, musical family in Ghana, we developed a love for worship at a young age. We fondly reminisce over memories of performing as toddlers in our father's Church, Victory Rock Chapel.
In essence, Halal Africa is a beautiful avenue to bring together powerful ministers from different parts of the world and record soulful African praise and worship songs to help uphold the gospel.
The simple aim of Halal Africa is to spread African gospel music throughout the world. We are moved to express our love to God for who He is and to celebrate His goodness in our lives.

Q: VBA Winsock Not Working with Longer Port Length (sin_port) I've created the below Excel VBA code which uses the Winsock API to connect to an IP address, send along a text string from an Excel cell and receive a text string in return.
My code was originally pointed to the IP address 127.0.0.1 with port 80 and had no issues. However, I've since had to update the destination port to 60401 which also required changing the port input variable sin_port to Long, as the new port exceeds the max length of a VBA Integer. After these updates the code still compiles, but the Winsock API doesn't process anything??
I think the error may be related to the sin_zero variable which might be buffering too many zeros with the port length  increase? I've tried adjusting this variable and diagnosing the code elsewhere, but it still doesn't process after several hours of tinkering with the code.
All help is really appreciated. Thank you.

A: You altered your definition of sockaddr_in to use a larger data type for the sin_port field.  You can't do that.  You need to restore your original definition to remain compatible with Winsock.
Your definition of htons() is also wrong. The real htons() function in ws2_32 operates on 16-bit numbers, not 32-bit numbers as you have defined (htonl() operates on 32-bit numbers).
The real problem you are running into is that VBA's Integer type is signed, the highest value it can hold is 32767. If you attempt to use a higher value, it will wrap to negative.
Winsock's actual sockaddr_in struct (and htons() function) uses an 16-bit unsigned type for the sin_port field. VBA simply does not have a 16-bit unsigned type.  So you have to live with the limitations of the 16-bit signed Integer.
You need to fix your definitions:
Type sockaddr_in
  sin_family As Integer
  sin_port As Integer
  sin_addr As Long
  sin_zero(0 to 7) As Byte
End Type

Public Declare Function htons Lib "ws2_32" ( _ ByVal hostshort As Integer) As Integer

Now, that being said, the unsigned number 60401 is hex 0xEBF1. That is the same value as the signed number -5135. Which becomes 0xF1EB (-3605) when byte swapped by htons().
So, try one of these instead:
addr.sin_port = htons(&HEBF1)

addr.sin_port = htons(-5135)

addr.sin_port = -3605

Furthermore, inet_addr("127.0.01") should read inet_addr("127.0.0.1").

The purpose of regenerative medicine, especially tissue engineering, is to replace damaged tissue with new tissue that will allow the body to resume normal function. The uniqueness of tissue engineering is that it can restore normal structure in addition to repairing tissue function, and is often accomplished using stem cells. The first type of tissue engineering using stem cells was hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), a surgical procedure in which hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are infused into a host to treat a variety of blood diseases, cancers, and immunodeficiencies.
Human pluripotent stem cells are valued for their potential to form numerous specialized cells and for their longevity. In the US, where a portion of the population is opposed to destruction of human embryos to obtain stem cells, what avenues are open to scientists for obtaining pluripotent cells that do not offend the moral sensibilities of a significant number of citizens?
"Generation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells without Myc from Mouse and Human Fibroblasts" (2007), by Masato Nakagawa et al.
In November 2007, Masato Nakagawa, along with a number of other researchers including Kazutoshi Takahashi, Keisuke Okita, and Shinya Yamanaka, published "Generation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells without Myc from Mouse and Human Fibroblasts" (abbreviated "Generation") in Nature. In "Generation," the authors point to dedifferentiation of somatic cells as an avenue for generating pluripotent stem cells useful for treating specific patients and diseases.
John D. Gearhart is a renowned American developmental geneticist best known for leading the Johns Hopkins University research team that first identified and isolated human pluripotent stem cells from human primordial germ cells, the precursors of fully differentiated germ cells. Born in Western Pennsylvania, Gearhart lived on the family farm located in the Allegheny Mountains for the first six years of his life.
Edward Donnall Thomas, an American physician and scientist, gained recognition in the scientific community for conducting the first bone marrow transplant, a pioneering form of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Bone marrow transplants are considered to be the first successful example of tissue engineering, a field within regenerative medicine that uses hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) as a vehicle for treatment. Prior to Thomas's groundbreaking work, most blood-borne diseases, including certain inherited and autoimmune diseases, were considered lethal.
