Former referee Sergi Albert runs for LaLiga election – SPANISH FOOTBALL
The former Catalan referee Sergi Albert has decided to run for election by LaLiga, an agency that is currently without president for the resignation of Javier Tebas, who left the charge to run again.
The one who was a first division from 1987 to 1990 secured in statements to the program 'Qu't'hi play' (What you play for) of cadena SER that has decided to take the step and try to become the new president of LaLiga.
Albert has ensured that his goal is clear: "I don't forgive myself against anyone, I want to be an alternative," he said.
In the microphones of the SER he advanced what his arguments will be to convince the teams to vote for him. Among the highlights of his program is "normalize relations with the Royal Esoañola Football Federation, control the agency's spending and advocate for the neutrality of the president".
Sergi Albert has until December 17 to submit its candidacy officially and must be endorsed by 11 of the 42 professional football clubs.
LaLiga, according to regulations, is composed of five clubs of which two represent the SAD or oldest clubs of the First Division. A third to the SAD or oldest club of Segunda, one to the youngest or most modern entity in the top category and a fifth to the youngest in the silver category. These are therefore Athletic Club, Barcelona, Getafe, Sporting de Gijon and Extremadura. At the moment it is the Madrid team, with its president Angel Torres, who chairs this body while the electoral process is in force.

Q: Prompt for passphrase each session while access page with mutual/2 way authentication (with p12 certificate) I have the following configuration:
Apache 2.2 with SSL, MySQL, PHP 5
I made protection of one page with mutual authentication (p12 client certificate). Now - you can access the page only if you have this certificate installed in your browser. While you access the page, you are prompted only to choose certificate. But this is not enough for me. Is there way to protect using of the certificate with passphrase, I mean - everytime when apache pair connection with the client not only to as for certificate, but when you choose certificate, to force you to use pasphrase for certificate decryption. I hope you understand my question, even if my terminology is not fully correct.
UPDATE
I found this article: http://www.symantec.com/connect/articles/apache-2-ssltls-step-step-part-3 But which part is that I miss. Here is my certificates configuration:
# Folders structure:
#
# cert
#   |-- CA
#   |
#   |-- server
#   |  |-- certificates
#   |  |-- keys
#   |  |-- requests
#   |
#   |-- user
#      |-- certificates
#      |-- keys
#      |-- requests
#
# cd to cert folder
#

define server='ServerName';
define client='ClientName';
define -i days=3650;

# CA self-signed certificate:
dd if=/dev/random of=random bs=4096 count=1 # file with randomly generated 4096 bytes
openssl genrsa -rand random -out ./CA/CA.key 4096 # generate Key
openssl req -new -key ./CA/CA.key -out ./CA/CA.csr # generate Certificate Signing Request
openssl x509 -req -days $days -in ./CA/CA.csr -out ./CA/CA.crt -signkey ./CA/CA.key # self-sign the Certificate

# Server certificate:
dd if=/dev/random of=random bs=4096 count=1 # file with randomly generated 4096 bytes
openssl genrsa -rand random -des3 -out ./server/keys/$server.key 4096 # generate Key
openssl req -new -key ./server/keys/$server.key -out ./server/requests/$server.csr # generate Certificate Signing Request
openssl ca -days $days -in server/requests/$server.csr -cert ./CA/CA.crt -keyfile ./CA/CA.key -out ./server/certificates/$server.crt # generate and sign Certificate with CA

# Client certificate:
dd if=/dev/random of=random bs=4096 count=1 # file with randomly generated 4096 bytes
openssl genrsa -rand random -des3 -out ./user/keys/$client.key 4096 # generate Key
openssl req -new -key ./user/keys/$client.key -out ./user/requests/$client.csr # generate Certificate Signing Request
openssl ca -in ./user/requests/$client.csr -cert ./CA/CA.crt -keyfile ./CA/CA.key -out ./user/certificates/$client.crt # generate and sign Certificate with CA
openssl pkcs12 -export -clcerts -in ./user/certificates/$client.crt -inkey ./user/keys/$client.key -out ./user/certificates/$client.p12 # generate P12 certificate

Or I need to setup Apache for that?

A: OK, I think I found it - asking for passphrase is not certificate's task, but (in current case) browser's task. In IE you can check "Enabling Strong Private Key Protection" checkbox while import the certificate. In Firefox - use Master Password. I haven't played with other browsers.
If you have more suggestions or knowledge, I will be glad to read them!

Radiohead's saddest song revealed
Damian Jones Feb 23, 2017 1:30 pm GMT
Credit: Getty
Oxford band are due to headline Glastonbury in June
Radiohead's 'True Love Waits' is the saddest song in their collection, according to a data scientist.
Charlie Thompson pulled together information from Spotify and analysed the lyrics to determine the band's gloomiest track.
The results were scaled to fit within 1 to 100 and 'True Love Waits' won the designation of saddest song with a Gloom Index score of 1. The track, which you can hear below, featured on their recent album 'A Moon Shaped Pool'.
'In Rainbows' track '15 Step' also earned the highest score of 100.
It was apparently about frontman Thom Yorke's relationship with his former late partner Dr Rachel Owen.
She passed away last December aged 48 after battling cancer.
Owen and Yorke were partners for 23 years and had two children together, a son named Noah and daughter Agnes.
The couple split in August 2015.
Meanwhile, producer Nigel Godrich recently shared footage of the band working on 'Ful Stop' from 'A Moon Shaped Pool' in the recording studio.
The producer posted the 45-second clip on Twitter as a #TBT or "throwback Thursday". "ahh memories…" he wrote in the caption.
Radiohead have recently announced plans to play a gig in Israel this summer. The band will perform at the Park Hayarkon in Tel Aviv on July 19.
The gig is a controversial one with bands being urged to boycott Israel in protest against the country's occupation of Palestinian land. Guitarist Jonny Greenwood is married to an Israeli artist named Sharona Katan and he recently released 'Junun', a collaborative album with Israeli composer/singer Shye Ben Tzur.
Meanwhile, Radiohead are set to headline new Glasgow festival TRNSMT on July 7 alongside Kasabian and Biffy Clyro.
They have also been announced as the first headliner for Glastonbury 2017, and booked in a run of other huge European festival dates for 2017.
The band's rhythm guitarist Ed O'Brien will release his debut solo album in 2017.

Q: How to create accurate CollisionShapes for my 3D .USDZ model? This is how my model looks like and it's collision shapes (pink color).

My problem with this is that when I try to tap on the bottommost part of my model (the circle), I can't do that, because the uppermost part of the model's CollisionShape is in the way.
This is how i tried to create an accurate collisionShape for my model:
@objc private func placeObject() {

let entity = try! Entity.load(named: "Laryngeal")
let geom = entity.findEntity(named: "Geom")

for children in geom!.children {
  let childModelEntity = children as! ModelEntity
  childModelEntity.collision = CollisionComponent(shapes: [ShapeResource.generateConvex(from: childModelEntity.model!.mesh)])
}

let modelEntity = ModelEntity()
modelEntity.addChild(entity)

let anchorEntity = AnchorEntity(plane: .horizontal)
anchorEntity.addChild(modelEntity)

arView.installGestures([.all],for: modelEntity)

arView.scene.addAnchor(anchorEntity)

}
So my question is, how can i create the most accurate collisionShape which perfectly fits my model?

(Not Two - Poland)
An incredible concert at Sugar Maple in Milwaukee from the Chicago trio of Hamid Drake on drums, Kent Kessler on bass, and Ken Vandermark on reeds, a working trio of intense free jazz that formed in the 90s and has developed an almost telepathic rapport through energetic and cathartic collective playing, one of the exceptional examples of Chicago jazz.
Label: Not Two
Catalog ID: MW 970-2
Packaging: Cardboard Gatefold
Recorded at Sugar Maple, Milwaukee on December 21st, 2014 by Dave Zuchowski.
Kent Kessler-bass
Ken Vandermark-reeds
• Show Bio for Kent Kessler
"Kent Kessler (born January 28, 1957 in Crawfordsville, Indiana) is an American jazz double-bassist, best known for his work in the Chicago avant-garde jazz scene.
Kessler, born in Crawfordsville, Indiana, grew up on Cape Cod and began playing trombone at age ten. He and his family moved to Chicago when he was 13, and a few years later Kessler became intensely interested in jazz. While attending St. Mary Center for Learning High School, he began taking lessons from Kestutis Stanciauskas (Streetdancer) in electric bass and jazz theory in the middle of the 1970s. In 1977 he formed the ensemble Neutrino Orchestra with percussionist Michael Zerang and guitarists Dan Scanlan and Norbert Funk. He spent three months in Brazil during 1980-81 and spent time studying intermittently at Roosevelt University in Chicago; he and Zerang also formed a group called Musica Menta, which played regularly at Link's Hall.
Kessler began playing double bass in the 1980s and it became his primary instrument when he was asked in 1985 to join the NRG Ensemble, who toured Europe and recorded for ECM Records under the leadership of Hal Russell until his death in 1992. In 1991, he gigged with Zerang and guitarist Chris DeChiara; in need of a hornist, they called Ken Vandermark, who had been considering leaving the Chicago scene. Kessler and Vandermark would go on to collaborate extensively on free jazz and improvisational projects such as the Vandermark 5, the DKV Trio and the Steelwool Trio. In the 1990s and afterwards he worked with Chicago musicians such as Hamid Drake, Fred Anderson, and Joe McPhee, and also with European musicians such as Peter Brötzmann, Mats Gustafsson, Misha Mengelberg, and Luc Houtkamp.
In 2003, Kessler released a solo album, Bull Fiddle, on Okka Disk. Kessler performs alone on nine of the twelve tracks, and with Michael Zerang on three."

• Show Bio for Ken Vandermark
"Born in Warwick, Rhode Island on September 22nd, 1964, Ken Vandermark began studying the tenor saxophone at the age of 16. Since graduating with a degree in Film and Communications from McGill University during the spring of 1986, his primary creative emphasis has been the exploration of contemporary music that deals directly with advanced methods of improvisation. In 1989, he moved to Chicago from Boston, and has worked continuously from the early 1990's onward, both as a performer and organizer in North America and Europe, recording in a large array of contexts, with many internationally renowned musicians (such as Fred Anderson, Ab Baars, Peter Brötzmann, Tim Daisy, Hamid Drake, Terrie Ex, Mats Gustafsson, Devin Hoff, Christof Kurzmann, Fred Lonberg-Holm, Joe McPhee, Paal Nilssen-Love, Paul Lytton, Andy Moor, Joe Morris, and Nate Wooley). His current activity includes work with Made To Break, The Resonance Ensemble, Side A, Lean Left, Fire Room, the DKV Trio, and duos with Paal Nilssen-Love and Tim Daisy; in addition, he is the music director of the experimental Pop band, The Margots. More than half of each year is spent touring in Europe, North America, and Japan, and his concerts and numerous recordings have been critically acclaimed both at home and abroad. In addition to the tenor sax, he also plays the bass and Bb clarinet, and baritone saxophone. In 1999 he was awarded the MacArthur prize for music."

1. Faster Than It Would Be 20:14
2. 20th Century Myth 17:29
3. Uncontrolled Writer 21:57
"In 1994 Ken Vandermark (reeds), Kent Kessler (double bass) and Hamid Drake (drums) formed DKV trio. By the end of the 1990s they were one of the most prominent groups in free jazz and improvised music; recording numerous albums documenting their magic, mostly as a trio but also in collaboration (e.g. Fred Anderson or Joe Morris). In more recent years, they released two excellent box sets documenting live performances Sound In Motion and Past Present, a sextet recording including Mats Gustafsson, Massimo Pupillo and Paal Nilssen-Love and a double trio with all members of the thing. Their most recent effort, Latitude 41.88, is a trio live date recorded at the Sugar Maple in Milwaukee in 2014 by David Zuchowski and released on the Polish Not Two label.
The albums starts "Faster Then It Would Be" featuring a free blowing Vandermark on tenor saxophone, quickly joined by a bowing Kessler and a more subtle, colouring Drake; working their way into a funky groove initiated by Vandermark, promptly supported by Drake and Kessler. From here, the trio really joins as a unit and weaves threads of free and groove into a polyrhythmic web propelling Drake into a contagious solo. Following Drake's solo, toe-tapping continues when Vandermark adds a catchy melody that develops into the climax of the piece. To clear satisfaction of the audience and this listener, well-earned applause.
"20th Century Myth" finds Hamid Drake solo, searching for other worlds on his drum kit. He is a real adventurer, taking us all around the world musically. Free phrases intertwine with tribal rhythm and world music. After 5 minutes, he settles and is joined by a gentle Vandermark, and supported by a deep bowing Kessler. The track continues into a pulsating rhythm initiated by Vandermark and collectively develops and fades into a deeply wailing free blues.
"Uncontrolled Writer" finds Vandermark on clarinet squealing through high registers, overtones and harmonics before settling with gentle cymbals and plucked strings. Vandermark quickly switches back to saxophone and is propelled into a groove by Drake's brushwork that is - all too - briefly interrupted for a nice pizzicato solo on double bass by Kessler. The trio joins forces and finishes off the set with a catchy climax, answered with loud cheers and applause by the audience.
This is a really tight record by masters of free music that have been all over the scene for the past 25 years. Highly recommended. You should own the record, if only for the second track."-Martin Sekelsky, The Free Jazz Collective

Tancredo on Sessions Flap: Democrats' Ferocious Malevolence Matched by Congressional Republicans' Cowardice
by Tom Tancredo This week we are reminded of that old political axiom– "I can handle my enemies, but please, God, protect me from my friends." A handful of Republicans in Congress joined the concerted attack by Democrat leaders in criticizing Attorney General Jeff Sessions for not answering a question that was never asked in his confirmation hearing. As part of his confirmation hearing in a Senate committee, Sessions was asked by Sen. Al Franken about meetings with "foreigners" while serving as a surrogate for candidate Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign. Sessions replied that he had no such...

Non-Denial 'Denial': Obama Response to Trump 'Wiretap' Claim Raises More Questions
by Matthew Boyle A number of ex-Obama officials appear to suggest that the Obama administration may have actually wiretapped the Trump campaign, but that if they did it would have been justified by a court and part of an investigation by the Justice Department—not led by or ordered from the White House or the former president himself. On Saturday, former President Obama's spokesman Kevin Lewis denied that the former White House or the former President himself would have given such an order to wiretap Trump Tower—or any other type of surveillance in any case—but that such an order would...

Graham's 2020 Tax Law for POTUS Candidates Unconstitutional
by Ken Klukowski Sen. Lindsay Graham (R-SC) is proposing a federal law that would require all candidates for president to release their 1040 personal income tax returns, including President Donald Trump. But such a law should not survive a court challenge, because it would be unconstitutional. Article II of the Constitution sets forth three criteria to be eligible for president. A person must be (1) a natural born citizen, (2) at least 35 years of age, and (3) been residing in the United States for at least 14 years before the election. That is all.

The document, prepared by the UK House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee, looked into the claims that the outlets in question were operating as a propaganda machine for the Kremlin. After taking evidence from senior management at the outlets, the committee, however, failed to back up the assertion with any factual data. Radio Sputnik discussed the issue with Oliver Tickell, British journalist, author and campaigner, who launched a petition protesting NatWest's decision to close RT's bank accounts in the UK. "When you...

Magic Johnson Tries To Save The Lakers By Bringing Kobe Back!
The Los Angeles Lakers are just flat out terrible. This organization was so incredible at one point in time and to know that they just flat suck now really sucks.
According to msn.com, the Lakers confirmed earlier this month that Johnson had been hired as an adviser to co-owner and president Jeanie Buss with a wide-ranging brief touching on "all business and basketball matters".
Johnson, 57, said that his first move -- if he was given power to do so -- would be to try and recruit the recently retired Bryant into the set-up.


How much exactly does your work cost you and how much do you need to earn to live?
If some people in the world subsist on less than a dollar a day, why do we need more? It is of course not that simple and everyone will have a different answer. Balance arrives when we reconsider Maslow's hierarchy of needs and where we are in the process of reaching our own individual potential ( self actualisation).
Thank you Ceridwen for your comment yesterday.
Personally - I have had enjoyable work on the one hand and I have had paid work on the other hand - but the two have never coincided and I have given up hope by now that they ever will.
Employers are steadily imposing: health hazards at work (on people who never previously expected it)/antisocial hours working/micro-managing peoples time/cutting salaries in real terms or maybe even physically cutting them - and so a high proportion of extra people have been put in the position that the World of Work has now become unbearable. The "cost" many of us are having to pay to earn that steadily decreasing amount of money is becoming higher and higher - and too high for many of us to "pay" any longer.
So - since you have found "your place" then - enjoy.
The question I ponder over is where exactly are we on Maslow's triangle as a result of the financial crisis? What are the consequences to businesses and people?
The credit crunch effect has been like being hit by an enormous thunderstorm. Its effects are not just felt in business, on balance sheets but have an aftershock effect on each person on the edge of the epicentre and it questions our perception of normality.
So just as your sight can be distorted and vision impaired by sheets of rain, hail and thunder, and the feelings associated with that, there are also opportunities to rise from the ashes.
Add to that that assets have reduced on everyones balance sheets, and you can see that the pressure is on for survival of the fittest with opportunities for others. Business costs are still rising and profit margins are still being squeezed and people are feeling that intensely.
People on short term contracts do not get their contracts renewed or staff are put on shorter days and if you have targets they are likely to be unforgiving.The result is that people are asked to work harder for less reward and tensions rise.
If you are still standing in the rain I urge you to stay on because this is where you are going to need to focus in the madness because you either will find shelter or get soaked to the skin.
There is a balance between time and money and although voluntary simplicity allows us to gradually adapt to more time, less money the above scenario is probably going to floor some people because as where a downshifting path is a gradual process of adaptation the credit crunch is drastic and brutal and more painful.
First of all, it is extremely uncomfortable but if you can,check where you are, what your priorities are and start finding a solution that works for you. My experience with ME/CFS is simply that frustration is energy draining and the planning of slow, persistent actions creates a very slow path to progress.
Being an optimist,it is my personal opinion that there is no such thing as personal failure, just feedback even in a critical situation.
The overall difficulty is compounded because when consumers start reducing their spending, it increases the effects on businesses as lack of consuming reduces orders etc etc etc see above.
Is there a way forward you ask? How long before the situation turns around and sunshine appears?
The point to remember is that there are certain elements in this picture that you can build on and others that are beyond your sphere of influence. Believe me when I say it is hard to see sunshine during a thunderstorm.
As ships wrestle in stormy weather the sight of a lighthouse makes you long for home. You could be battling crippling waves to reach that light, but surprisingly the light is incredibly bright. Find your lighthouse and point north.
What sets humans apart from animals is the ability to work together to find a solution and really all hands on deck are needed now.
Happiness is working in a shop.
If you are wondering whether we are still enjoying what we do, the answer is a resounding yes. Apart from relentless days, weeks, months and years of working without a significant break, the life of a shopkeeper is a happy one with some surprises. It has been a transforming experience in more ways than one. 3 years ago we simply could not see how we could re-enter a working environment due to health issues until we realised that combining our strengths and working with our weaknesses as a family we could make a valid contribution to society. Family businesses are the oldest business model in the world and despite long working hours the rewards go beyond mere profit. Its an opportunity to try ideas, to involve all family members in business discussions and to get a broad view across the generations. It constantly amazes me how when we put a challenging situation on the table, many solutions arrive from all participants and we can then decide how challenges can be solved. If you want to know how to market toys to children, what better way than to take a 10 year old to the wholesaler and let him choose products for that market share. It also provides an educational tool to discuss how businesses work. If you want to understand the challenges faced by teenagers in their shopping habits, you only need to ask to receive an answer. Website design can be discussed with family members who grasp html..
When the going gets tough, we can work together as a team, each with our own individual roles to continue to serve customers. Each team member's skills are valued and respected and their weaknesses offer opportunities for personal growth through mutual support and encouragement. A sense of humour helps.
What does the future hold in these uncertain and changing economic times? There are definite changes in supply lines as some suppliers go out of business, products are withdrawn and choice reduces but overall it is a never ending process of adaptation. We cannot anticipate completely what our customers want and when we fail , we see it not as failure but as feedback to consider change. We can see some of our suppliers struggling in this economy and we can see how that will affect our supply lines but by supporting local suppliers and by strengthening relationships with local suppliers we aim to create an interdependent local economy.
Someone's output can become someone else's input creating a circle of resources. Big businesses tend to rely on surveys and on secondhand information but to us having direct contact with our customers and suppliers informs us on their views on the products we offer which in turn can inform our business strategies.
As an example we recently were approached to market a new local muesli and before we agree to stocking a new item we take it apart and each family member gives some feedback. Is it local, what are the consequences of its packaging, what is the shelf life, where will be put it, what is the best possible price? Each team member has a view and brings some valid points to the discussion.
One of the best comments made by one of our sons was how lovely it was that work could be enjoyed. He had observed how many people are sad, stressed and unhappy at work and how he was not particularly looking forward to becoming a 'groanup'. Seeing us smile, happy and contented in our work despite our challenges has given him a different perspective. That is simply a fantastic moment to remember and worth getting up for.
That is a bigger investment yield than profit.
As the nights draw in and TV just really is not an option, I can be found in a rather tatty chair next to the wood burner, cosy hand knitted socks on my feet, a small glass of damson gin and a good book.
How do you go about getting books to read without spending a lot of money?
I recently joined readitswapit, an ingenuous way to revolve your books and exchange them for other reading material. Its really simple, you list your books, you make them active and people send you an email when they want to swap with you, you look at their list of books and if anything grabs you, you just swap. You send the book in the post and you receive your reading material in the post. When you have read the book you can make it active in your swapping library and so it goes on.
The result is that I now have 9 new books to read which is promising.
A definite alternative to the library and no addition of stuff on the shelves. And if your interests have changed you can go and explore a whole new world.


I think Luther would have said that they were good choices -- sanctifying the ordinary; showing God's benevolence toward the common and biological -- but not inevitable ones, and -- to the point -- not because of any special ontological status that they have or, of course, come to have in the ceremony.  One of his most startling assertions -- repeated again and again in the anti-spiritualist pamphlets of the late 20's -- is that the Real Presence is everywhere (Jesus is bodily at "the right hand of God"; the right hand of God is a metaphor for the power of God; the power of God is everywhere; therefore ...).  He did not shrink from this conclusion, but reveled in it.
It was interesting to learn that Luther thought the vehicles of the Eucharist were arbitrarily chosen. Through habituation, the bread and wine probably seem like naturally unified signs to those of us who have been exposed to Christianity.
I think most of us already agreed with you about the arbitrariness of the Tree of Knowledge being singled out for prohibition. To serve its purpose, the prohibition needs to be inaccessible to reason, except as reason dictates obedience to God. God's decree makes the fruit mean something (obedience) apart from what it inherently is (delicious food).  The tricky name (knowledge) emphasizes how arbitrary a sign the tree is. In the temptation, Eve gets caught up in speculation about what the fruit is and does.
I must say I'm surprised that no one on the list (so far) has picked up on the rather amazing things that I alluded to with regard to the above.


With concerns about mercury levels in fish -- a usually healthful food -- how much should women of childbearing age eat?
Fish and shellfish have gained star status on the dinner menu. Several medical groups now advocate tuna, salmon, and their fishy (and shellfish) cousins as important to a heart-healthy and overall healthy diet.
But for women, the choice has been less clear. The concern: Are fish and shellfish safe -- if pregnancy and children are in the picture? Could mercury in fish put an unborn, newborn, or young child at risk? Should pregnant women eat fish?
Various reports have turned up conflicting results -- some indicating risk, others pooh-poohing all the worry. To clarify this murky issue, WebMD turned to some of the nation's experts.
"[Pregnant] women should be cautious because their unborn fetus is very sensitive to toxicity from mercury," says Robert Goyer, MD, professor emeritus and chairman of pathology at University of Western Ontario. Goyer participated in a National Academy of Sciences (NAS) study evaluating the credibility of the EPA's mercury studies.
"We came up with the same results the EPA did," Goyer tells WebMD. "We don't know which stage of fetal development is more critical -- whether it's the third trimester or the moment of conception, or if it's continuous exposure to mercury during pregnancy. But all this has been factored together in the EPA/FDA advisory."
In their statement issued last year the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and FDA -- for the first time -- cited the health benefits of fish.
"Fish and shellfish contain high quality protein and other essential nutrients, are low in saturated fat, and contain omega-3 fatty acids," says their joint statement. "A well-balanced diet that includes a variety of fish and shellfish can contribute to heart health and children's proper growth and development. Thus, women and young children in particular should include fish or shellfish in their diets due to the many nutritional benefits."
However, mercury may be harmful to an unborn child or a young child. Mercury may have damaging effects to a child's developing brain.
"It may be prudent to modify your diet if you are: planning to become pregnant; pregnant; nursing; or a young child," the EPA statement adds.
Do not eat: Shark, swordfish, king mackerel, or tilefish because they contain high levels of mercury.
Buy canned tuna carefully. Light tuna has less mercury than albacore ("white") tuna. However, up to 6 ounces (one average meal) of albacore tuna per week is safe.
Check local fish advisories: Locally caught fish should be checked with local EPA departments. If no advice is available, eat up to 6 ounces (one average meal) per week of fish you catch from local waters, but don't consume any other fish during that week.
Apply these guidelines to young children: They can eat these low-mercury fish and shellfish. However, feed children smaller portions.
Fish sticks: Frozen fish sticks and fast-food fish sandwiches are commonly made from fish that are low in mercury.
Tuna steaks generally contain higher levels of mercury than canned light tuna.
The omega-3 fats in many fish and seafood are known to lower risk of heart disease and benefit the brain. The American Heart Association advises at least two servings a week of fish like mackerel, lake trout, herring, sardines, albacore tuna, and salmon because of these healthy fats.
In a developing fetus, omega-3 fats promote brain, eye, and motor development, the EPA notes.
The mercury in fish and seafood is indeed the big concern -- although there are other toxins like PCBs that have warranted some worry. Mercury exists naturally in the environment, but more is released into air, land, and water by trash burning, fossil fuel combustion in factories, mining, and the dumping of sewage sludge in croplands.
"It's one of those questions that comes up almost every day? mercury and fish."
Once mercury gets into surface water, it quickly makes its way through the aquatic food chain. In smaller organisms, there is usually an insignificant amount of mercury. But as fish get older or as bigger fish eat smaller ones, the mercury content begins to build.
Fish at the top of the food chain -- pike, bass, older or large tuna, tilefish, king mackerel, shark, and swordfish -- tend to have higher levels of mercury, from one to 1 million times greater than the amount in the waters, according to the EPA.
If you're eating a lot of fish, mercury accumulates in your bloodstream over time. While the body naturally gets rid of mercury, it may take a year for the levels to drop significantly. Thus, it may be present in a woman even before she becomes pregnant. This is the reason why women who are trying to become pregnant -- or pregnant women -- should also avoid eating certain types of fish.
For women wanting to switch to other omega-3 sources, there are options, says Julie Redfern, RD, a registered dietitian in obstetrics at Brigham & Women's Hospital in Boston. She has counseled thousands of pregnant or soon-to-be-pregnant women.
"It's one of those questions that comes up almost every day ? mercury and fish," Redfern tells WebMD. "Some women are very well-read, and they say they are not going to eat any fish. Others say, 'I love fish,' and want to know what's safe. I give them the FDA's list of safe fish. I ask them what fish they usually eat, and look for it on the list. I also talk to them about canned tuna, about the different kinds of tuna -- and what's on the 'avoid' list."
Overall, she says, "I feel very comfortable reassuring them that if they keep it to the 'safe' fish -- and eat no more than two servings a week -- they'll be fine."
But, flaxseed oil, walnuts, canola oil, wheat germ, and omega-3-fortified eggs are excellent food sources for these fats. Also, a couple of new prenatal vitamins -- and a 200 mg supplement -- contain an algae-derived form of omega-3 fats, she adds.
"These are from vegetable plants, so the fats are not quite the same ? the body converts them more slowly. But if someone doesn't want fish, it still works."
Redfern identifies with those who love fish and hate to cast it from their diet entirely. "With them, I advise making sure you're not eating as much as in you once did. You don't want to frighten them, make them not eat fish at all."
The content of PCBs in fish has not received as much attention. These are synthetic chemicals released into the environment through commercial manufacturing activities. Even though PCB chemicals have been banned in the U.S. since 1979, they continue to be a threat because it does not biodegrade quickly; PCBs continue to "live" in groundwater and soil.
PCBs are a likely cause of cancer, the EPA says. At high levels, PCBs kill lab rats, cause developmental problems, or cause damage to the liver, kidney, and nervous and endocrine systems.
"I think all marine and freshwater fish have PCBs," says Goyer, who has retired to live in Chapel Hill, N.C. "The North Carolina EPA advisory board is more concerned about PCBs than mercury in fish. There is potential for neurological damage." However, in his NAS study, "we determined that mercury was more critical than PCBs. That's not to say that PCBs don't have an affect."
Bottom line: "It's prudent for women of childbearing age to limit their intake fish," he tells WebMD.

Q: How would you refactor this Asp.net MVC 2 Html Helper? Quick question.
How would you refactor this Asp.net MVC 2 HtmlHelper?
Specifically would it make sense to use the TagBuilder class in this scenario?
        public static MvcHtmlString BusinessDisplayContacts(this HtmlHelper helper, string phone, string cellPhone,
        string fax, string website, string email, bool hideEmail)
    {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

        sb.AppendLine("
");
        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(phone)) {
            sb.AppendLine("
");
            sb.AppendLine("Work:");
            sb.AppendFormat("{0}",phone);
            sb.AppendLine("
");
        }
        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(cellPhone)) {
            sb.AppendLine("
");
            sb.AppendLine("Cell Phone:");
            sb.AppendFormat("{0}",cellPhone);
            sb.AppendLine("
");
        }
        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(fax)) {
            sb.AppendLine("
");
            sb.AppendLine("Fax:");
            sb.AppendFormat("{0}",fax);
            sb.AppendLine("
");
        }
        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(website)) {
            sb.AppendFormat("
{0}
",website);
        }
        if (!hideEmail && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(email)) {
            sb.AppendFormat("
{0}
",email);
        }
        sb.AppendLine("
");

        if (sb.Length < 10)
        {
            return MvcHtmlString.Create("");
        }
        else {
            return MvcHtmlString.Create(sb.ToString());
        }
    }

Thanks in advance.
UPDATE:
Thank for all of the constructive comments.
In the end I've decided to move the above code into a strongly typed partial view as per @queen3's suggestion.

A: One thing I see people missing a lot, is using C# verbatim strings for stuff like that... e.g.
sb.AppendLine("
");
sb.AppendLine("Work:");
sb.AppendLine(string.Format("{0}",phone));
sb.AppendLine("
");

can be made into
sb.AppendFormat(@"

    Work: {0}

", phone);

which is way more readable.
Another thing: I would put all those strings + bool inside an object, like ContactInfo or something, changing the signatur of your helper to BusinessDisplayContacts(this HtmlHelper helper, ContactInfo info) - this way you will be able to add/remove/modify phone numbers and conditions without breaking existing code.

Rosselyn Chapel – Music Carved in Stone
Many Ancient temples and sacred monuments were built in a true East and West alignment. You entered the from the west and faced the altar in the East. One such holy site with this alignment is the famous Rossyln Chapel in Scotland. It was founded on the autumn equinox in 1446 and was dedicated to St. Matthew.
Most of us are aware of the many esoteric conspiracies around Rosslyn Chapel's relationship to the Knight's Templar, the Masons, and the Holy Grail through the "Da Vinci Code" by Dan Brown. " The site is also thought to have been originally an ancient Druid Holy site.
During my endless research into Invisible Architecture (for that future book!), I keep discovering such an amazing relationship between worship, acoustics and architecture. Rossyln Chapel is a perfected example of this – it has often been refereed to a "book carved in stone."
The chapel stands on fourteen pillars, which form an arcade of twelve pointed arches on three sides of the nave. The three pillars at the east end of the chapel are named, from north to south: the Master Pillar, the Journeyman Pillar and, most famously, the Apprentice Pillar, showing the churches Masonic relationship. The pillars are covered with 213 intricately carved cubes, which protrude from them. A father and son team , Thomas and Stuart Mitchell realized that the designs on the cubes resembled the geometric patterns seen in Cymatics.
Cymatics, discovered by Hans Jenny, is essentially the study of how sound waves and frequencies influence matter. Jenny found patterns are formed by placing powder or sand on a flat surface and vibrating the surface at various frequencies. Different notes produce various shapes including flowers, diamonds and hexagons, called Chaldni patterns.
By matching these Chladni patterns with musical notes corresponding to the same frequencies, the father-and-son team of Thomas and Stuart Mitchell produced a tune which Stuart calls the Rosslyn Motet. "It is what we could call 'frozen music', a little like cryogenics. The music has been frozen in time by symbolism. It was only a matter of time before the symbolism began to 'thaw out' and begin to make sense to scientific and musical perception," said T. Mitchell.
Using skills he learned as an RAF code-breaker during the Korean War and his lifetime knowledge of classical music, he finally realized they depicted the vibrations of musical notes. He said: "It was a Eureka moment to end all Eureka moments. Many angels were carrying musical instruments and some were even grouped as if they were a choir. But one angel gave me the biggest problem. He was carrying something and at first I thought it was musical instrument which had been lost in the mists of time. It was only when I realized that he was carrying a musical stave, the blueprint for all musical composition, that I knew I was looking at a secretly coded piece of music."
Stuart Mitchell said the tunes could have been hidden because knowledge of harmonics may have been seen as dangerous, even heretical, by 15th Century church authorities. Interestingly the Devil's Chord, diabolus in musica, makes an appearance in the music. "In the ceiling is this jump of an augmented fourth, in fact it opens up with an augmented fourth," says Mitchell. "The Catholic Church had banned this interval (seven semitones) from medieval music as it was believed to be disturbing and therefore diabolical. Perhaps St Clair (founder of the chapel) was indeed challenging the authority of the church. The music itself, according to Mitchell is a mix of Celtic melodies and secular worship crossed with a kind of Christian worship, but not Catholic. What we have here is a recorded piece of music, it is almost like a compact disc from the 15th Century." The Rosslyn Motet is avail on CD.
Here is a link, where you can take a virtual tour of the inside of Rosslyn Chapel with music. https://www.rodedwards.com/interactive-files/Rosslyn_Chapel/index.html

READ THIS EBOOK
This edited volume gathers together studies examining various aspects of physical culture in literature written in French from Europe and around the Francophone world. We define "physical culture" as the systematic care for and development of the physique, and interpret it to include not only sport in the modern sense, but also all the athletic activities that preceded it or relate to it, such as bodily forms of exercise, leisure, and artistic creation. Our essays pursue diverse interpretive approaches and focus on texts from a wide variety of periods (medieval to the present) and genres (short stories, novels, essays, poetry) in order to consider the fundamental—yet highly neglected—place of physical activities in literature and culture from the French-speaking world.
Some of the questions the essays explore include: Does the genre "sports literature" exist in French, and if so, what are its characteristics? How do governments or other political entities mobilize sports literature? What role do narratives about sports—especially the creation of teams—play in the construction of national, regional and/or local identities? How is physical culture used in literary works for pedagogical or ideological purposes? To what extent do sports performances provide a metaphorical and figurative discourse for discussing literature and culture?
"This work makes a valuable contribution to the study of the history and cultural representation of French sport by bringing together chapters on a variety of sports and literary forms that interrogate the relationship between sport and literature."

Fossil fuel mapping database results released
UVic sociologist William Carroll pictured on Mt. Tolmie above Victoria in June 2019. Carroll is co-director of the jointly led Corporate Mapping Project which released the new online tool on July 3.
A new online mapping tool highlighting the 50 most influential fossil fuel industry players in Western Canada was launched today to help shed light on who's who in the oil resource sector.
Today, the Corporate Mapping Project (CMP) released its fossil-power top 50 listing, along with a publicly accessible database of the larger Canadian fossil fuel industry that maps its connections to the wider corporate sector in Canada and globally.
"Knowledge is a catalyst for change," says William Carroll, University of Victoria professor of sociology and co-director of the project. "The CMP allows us to investigate and monitor how corporate power is organized and exercised, in and around the fossil fuel sector."
The CMP runs the six-year research and public engagement initiative—the Mapping the Power of the Carbon-Extractive Corporate Resource Sector project—jointly led by UVic, the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives (BC & Saskatchewan offices) and the Alberta-based Parkland Institute.
Carroll says the fossil fuel industry, "whose economic interests are served by continued expansion of oil and gas production, is the biggest obstacle to real action on climate change today."
The development of a public, open source database was one of four key areas for the project announced in November 2015.
Funded by the Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada, the CMP brings together researchers, civil society organizations and Indigenous participants to study the oil, gas and coal industries in BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan.

Q: Laplace transform of scaling function I'm currently doing a class in differential equations and the first subject is  laplace transforms - I'm struggling with this task however;

Let $f$ be a continuous function with scaling symmetry given by $f(mt)=m^kf(t)$ for any $m>0$ Show that $(\mathcal{Lf})(s) = m^{-k-1}\frac{s}{m}(\mathcal{Lf})$

I don't see a way to apply the laplace transforms I know already - is there a certain theorem that simplifies this a bit?

A: From the definition of the Laplace transform,
$$
\mathcal L[f]\left(\frac{s}{m}\right)= \int_0^\infty f(t) e^{-st/m}dt = m\int_0^\infty f(m u) e^{-su}du = m^{k+1}\int_0^\infty f(u) e^{-su}du = m^{k+1}\mathcal{L}[f](s).
$$
Dividing through by $m^{k+1}$ gives
$$
\mathcal{L}[f](s) = m^{-k-1}\mathcal{L}[f]\left(\frac{s}{m}\right).
$$

Simple Gmail helper scripts to be used with a priority inbox.

The `threadsToInbox` is a time triggered function. The function ensures that new messages are placed within the appropriate priority inbox categories. Without this function, new messages get placed in the `everything else` category of a priority inbox.

If you're not using a priority inbox, you can remove this function and the trigger created in the `setup` function.

## Setup
There are two ways to setup the mail-scripts for your inbox.

### Option 1 - Quickstart - copy + paste code
Create a new script file in your Drive folder. Copy code from `env`, `libs`, and `server` and paste into the the google app script editor script file. The files can be contained within separate files to mirror the structure of this project, or can be contained just one code file. Run the `setup` function to create triggers and save your email aliases to the script properties. In your gmail inbox create labels to match that in the production and/or development environments (you can edit the names as desired).

### Option 2 - Developer Route - using `gapps` node module
Use the project [node-google-apps-script](https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-google-apps-script) to upload from the command line.

  1. run `npm install -g node-google-apps-script` to install it globally. This will allow you to run `gapps` from   command line (terminal).
  1. Get Google Credentials to authorize you to push to your revisions to a script file in your Drive. Follow   instructions on the [gapps node module readme](https://github.com/danthareja/node-google-apps-script#quickstart).
  1. Run `npm install -g gulp` if you do not already have the [gulp](http://gulpjs.com/) task runner installed   globally.
  1. Clone this repository, `cd mail-scripts`, and run `npm install`. This will download and set up all of the   local dependencies for the project that are specified in `package.json`.
  1. Create a new script file in your drive and copy the SCRIPT_DRIVE_FILE_ID from the url.
  1. Build the project for the specified environment (development: dev, production: prd, testing: tst). This script currenly only uses the `prd` environment, but more envs could be added for testing later:

  ```bash
  mkdir build
  cd build
  mkdir prd
  cd prd
  gapps init *SCRIPT_DRIVE_FILE_ID*
  cd ../..
  gulp upload-latest --env prd
  ```

## Make Labels in Gmail
Make labels in your inbox. If you're using the `snooze` and `nag` functions, then you will need at least the `snooze` and `nag` label along with some time/duration labels like `1d`,`1w`,`4w`, as specified in the script.

Which person have worked you with which has most inspired you in your career, and how?
Robert Smith (Conservative Party) – who was deputy leader of the Cotswold council in the UK when I was leader in the early 2000s. He was in his 80s and a real inspiration, not at all staid. He was a rear gunner in the RAF during WWII and a strong advocate of peace and cooperation.
My dog Teddy – a ancient Yorkshire Terrier who is 17 years old – with very few teeth, bad breath and still fiercely protective.
Is there anything you have personally achieved or done that would surprise people?
Learned to speak Indonesian when I lived there in the 90s when little English was spoken.
What is the most humbling thing you have experienced in your career?
Meeting with citizens adversely affected by Brexit such as people in families where partners and children have di erent nationalities. It didn't matter before and now it really does.
What was the most inspirational and influential book you have read and why?
Fascism: A Warning by Madeleine Albright – With the rise of the far right in the US, EU and elsewhere, this book reminds us not to be complacent and fi ght back.


The Nymph of Figure Skating Waits for August. February. 10, 2004 23:12. jaeyuna@donga.com.
Kim Yeon-a (Dojang Middle school) is a frail 14-year-old seventh-grade student who stands 1m54cm tall and weighs 37kg. Girls her age are excited by singer Lee Hyo-lee and gossip about good-looking TV talents that appear in sitcoms.
However, Kim Yeon-a, a figure skater representing Korea, has to stay on the ice all day long. She trains with other national athletes at the Tae-reung Sports Complex in the morning and spends her evenings on an individual training program with coach Kim Se-il at the Gwa-cheon Skating Center.
Her daily schedule consists of the repetitions of training. She couldn't go to school even if her school started after vacation on February 9. The figure skating season lasts from September to March. She can't take school lessons for this duration. Consequently, it is obvious that the young Kim is tired of skating.
But she has a reason to control her desire to be free and keep on skating. She is the youngest national figure skater, and she also has potential which can be acknowledged on the world stage.
In the women's senior group of the 58th figure skating championship on February 5, Kim won the championship with a short program score of 8.56, a free style score of 8.56, and a total score of 1.5. She is evaluated as the best skater in 100 years of Korean figure skating.
She performed five hard degree triples (three revolutions) first among Korean female skaters, and she is currently challenging for a quadruple (four revolutions). Quadruples, which involves jumping and making four revolutions in the air, became a topic when Japanese Ando Miki did it first as a female skater in 2002.
If she performed a quadruple freely, it would not be just a dream for her to skate next to Michelle Kwan, who is Chinese-American and who has conquered women's figure skating.
Kim began her skating career when she was 7 years old. She was introduced to skating after she learned it from her mother as a hobby, and got the focus when she won a gold medal in the elementary group of the Winter Sports Festival in second grade of the Kunpo Shinhung Elementary School. She became the "future of Korean figure skating" when she won back-to-back championships in the under-13s in 2002's Slovenia Triglav and 2003's Croatia Golden Bear.
Kim Yeon-a, not being able to participate in junior international championships because of her young age, will finally appear at the Junior Grand Prix Series in August. The day when Korea is an underdeveloped country of figure skating no more is coming soon.


YouTube personality, Graham Baates, gives us a video review of the Auto Ordnance Victory Girls 1911.
U.S.A. –-(Ammoland.com)- Auto-Ordnance Corporation, a member of the Kahr Firearms Group, has released their Victory Girls 1911. This is a refreshing twist on the recent resurgence of GI-style 1911s. Few can argue the elegance of Browning's famous 1911, but why not ad some artwork? That's exactly what Auto-Ordnance has done with some period-inspired laser etching and Cerakote coloring.
To pull directly from the product page we're given this description, "World War II themed "Victory Girls" 1911, designed to honor the women whose strength drove industry at home in support of our boys fighting overseas.
The Auto-Ordnance 1911BKO frame incorporates GI specs and features a matte black finished frame, barrel, and slide. The carbon steel slide, sear, and disconnector come from machining solid bar stock, then heat treated properly to assure durability and long life over many thousands of rounds. The low-profile sights feature a blade front sight and a rear drift adjustable for windage. The grips brown checkered plastic, with wood optional on the 1911BKOW model.
This model 1911 pistol shoots in .45 ACP, has a 5" barrel, 8.5" overall length, and weighs 39 oz. The 1911BKO, 100% made in the USA, and ships with one 7-round magazine. The BKO has a thumb safety, grip safety, and firing pin block.
The review sample I received was without a doubt a beautiful piece, but regardless of appearance, I want to know how a gun will run. I hit the range with the Victory Girls for the standard battery of full-mag +1, "What's for Dinner" load testing, and a field accuracy test of five shots from seven yards using Nosler 230gr Match ammunition.
Are the Victory Girls just good looking or does the gun perform?
See the test results in the video below.
Those wanting to check out the gun simply by the numbers can reference the chart below.
From my experience it appears Auto-Ordnance has built both, "show" and, "go" with the Victory Girls 1911. All of the classic lines of a GI 1911 accentuated with a beautiful laser engraving and Cerakote finish. Despite the old lore of 1911s not liking hollow points I experienced no problems with loads from Federal, GBW Cartridge, Nosler, Remington, Sig Sauer, or Winchester. The Victory Girls may lack night sights, a rail, or chainsaw attachment, but would be right at home as a display, BBQ, or range gun.
If you were looking for a closer shot of the Victory Girls take a look at the tabletop video below.
The artwork is ruggedly beautiful. If it doesn't shoot well it will look great on display. Make for good conversation.
You can see how it shoots in the "Shooting Impressions" video.
Looks like it has the crappy standard GI style front and rear sights. I will pass, thank you.
Suit yourself. The idea of a WWII homage 1911 is not for everyone but it is for me, GI sights and all. Many of our nation's enemies have fallen to those "crappy" sights.
My Mom was a real "Rosie the Riveter" and my Dad served in the Pacific. He loved 1911's, and I carried one in VN and in Central America.
This gun is now on my wish list.
The "crappy" sights served me just fine in the field accuracy test.
As a combat medic in the nineties, I had to qualify with a model 1911 Colt/ iron sights; I shot expert with it .

One death reported in Livingston County
Erich Murphy
Pontiac Daily Leader
Good news for some areas of the state were announced Wednesday but it was dampened a bit by the health department's daily coronavirus update report of another death.
The Livingston County Health Department reported Wednesday that a woman in her 90s passed away with COVID-19 symptoms declared as a contributing factor. This is the 58th death related to COVID for the county since the pandemic began.
Also reported were 25 new cases of COVID for the county. The LCHD said that it has received 48,692 test results for the coronavirus with 3,272 coming back as positive. There are 138 active cases with 3,076 cases having been released from isolation.
Capitol News Illinois is reporting that mitigations in some areas of the state could be lifted in 10 days.
"Starting Jan.15, exactly one incubation period from New Year's Day, any region that has met requirements for a reduction of mitigations will be able to move out of the Tier 3 mitigation plan, Gov. J.B. Pritzker announced Wednesday," wrote Grace Barbic of CNI.
"I'm cautiously optimistic as there are some early signs indicating that some regions have made real progress and won't reverse that progress this week or next," Pritzker said.
Pritzker said that regions will be able proceed past Tier 2 on Jan. 15, which is the end of the incubation period from the New Year's holiday. Going to to Tier 2 will allow restaurants and taverns to provide indoor service.
Barbic also said in her story for CNI, that because of high demand for the COVID-19 vaccine, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices recommended two initial priority groups receive the first rounds of vaccination.
Those in Phase 1A, who are currently receiving vaccines, include health care workers and residents of long-term care facilities.
Phase 1B will include Illinois residents age 65 years or older and non-healthcare frontline essential workers. ACIP recommended residents 75 years or older be prioritized, but Illinois reduced the age by 10 years. Pritzker noted the average age of COVID-19 deaths is 81 for white residents, 72 for Black residents and 68 for Latino residents.
About 3.2 million people throughout the state would be eligible for vaccination in Phase 1B. These essential workers include first responders, education workers, manufacturing, distribution and agriculture workers, grocery store workers, U.S. Postal service workers, public transit employees, corrections workers and incarcerated people, among others.
The Illinois National Guard will be assisting in the development of mass vaccination sites. The state will also be increasing the number of providers to support widespread testing when the time comes.
For details on previously reported cases and up-to-date information for Livingston County, go to the LCHD website: www.lchd.us.
As is the case during the holiday season, traveling is common. The LCHD stresses that those who have traveled to hot spots, those areas where higher rates of COVID are being reported, should get tested for COVID in a five-to-seven-day range after returning. If symptoms appear before then, testing should be done as soon as possible.
Drive-thru COVID-19 testing has begun and will be available at OSF Saint James weekdays from 8 a.m. to noon in the parking lot. There are no requirements and all testing is at no charge to the client. Insurance will be billed, if available.
Scheduling appointments is strongly recommended due to the limit of daily testing capacity. Contact the LCHD at (815) 844-7174, ext. 210, for appointments and questions.
The LCHD reminds residents that symptoms are not always obvious apparent but that people can be carriers of COVID-19. Everyone is is encouraged to continue to adhere to all required precautions including wearing a face covering and maintaining a social distance of at least six feet whenever possible. Frequent hand-washing and sanitizing is still strongly urged.
For Livingston County residents age 60 or older, homebound with no assistance and in need of essential care items, such as food, medical supplies, or personal hygiene products, please the LCHD at 815-844-7174, x230. The LCHD will continue to work diligently to meet the everyday needs of county residents while aggressively addressing the on-going COVID-19 pandemic. Up-to-date information for Livingston County may be found at www.lchd.us.

This five weeks workshop, situated in one of the most beautiful cities in the world, offers to students the opportunity to gain an in-depth multicultural perspective reflecting on the interaction between different cultures and nationalities. The journalism class focuses on foreign correspondence. Its aim is to analyze great foreign reporting by Americans covering social, economic, and political affairs abroad and to reflect on and writing about travel experiences, making these contents available to a domestic readership. The European cinema class takes into consideration Italian neorealism and its influence on French, Spanish, British, German, and Belgian cinema. Students visit some of the most important museums in the world, and are also exposed to the celebrated Italian food culture, tasting but also learning how to make Italian food. The workshop offers a two days trip to Rome and a visit to the Vatican and the Sistine Chapel, and a visit to Cinecittà, the most important film studios in Italy. Students live in apartments in the center of Florence, at a walking distance from the classroom space and surrounded by the artistic beauties of the city in a safe, friendly environment.
The workshop offers, through our partner AIFS (American Institute for Foreign Studies) the possibility of internships in English speaking newspapers and magazines and other companies located in Florence.
The workshop is open to all majors, no knowledge of Italian is required. For more information please contact Dr. Daniele Fioretti at: fioretd@miamioh.edu.
Mackenzie is a senior triple major in Journalism, Creative Writing, and English:Literature. She spent the summer of 2018 in Florence, Italy, through the study abroad program, "Florence, Italy: Writing, Media and Culture," sponsored by the Department of Media, Journalism & Film and led by professor Daniele Fioretti. She says that because of that program, she had 6 amazing weeks to study the Italian culture and the Italian people. "The people were the best part."
"I was drawn to Emily Crusi because she was one of the most welcoming and friendly people I met in Florence — and because her co-worker jokingly declared that Emily had always wanted to be famous. So, I spent a few hours in their market stall, talking to Emily and hearing about her life. It was amazing to me that I was able to connect with and befriend a stranger who was so completely different from me, and it was even more amazing when we shared a tearful goodbye at the end of my trip.
"This study abroad program encourages students to go beyond their comfort zone and truly experience Florence. The class assignments brought me to food vendors and marketplaces, where I was instructed to find someone interesting and write about them. This article is a direct result of that."


• Great for micro-controllers like the ESP8266, devices designed for 2x AA batteries, and more.
This ultra-small buck step-down voltage regulator is surprisingly powerful for it's size. Synchronous rectification is more efficient and creates less waste heat which allows it to reach current ratings found in regulators many times it's size. Despite the small size and low price, this power regulator delivers on it's specs. The output voltage is fixed at 3.3V and cannot be adjusted. Compared to adjustable regulators, the fixed output saves time and ensures accuracy. Be careful not to exceed the input voltage or maximum output current. Do not back feed power through the module. Do not apply reverse polarity voltage.
