Middle School Science Fair: Judges Needed!
Friday, February 9, 2018 @ 8:00 am - 2:00 pm
« High School Science Fair: Judges Needed!
Join Me for Coffee: Immunologist, Novartis Pharma »
Looking for undergraduate, graduate students, post-docs, or anyone who currently works in the field of science!
Pioneer Charter School of Science in Everett, MA is seeking judges for their middle school and high school science fair, and are also looking for physicists, biologists, chemists, and engineers to participate in their Science Speaker Series.
This year, the school will be holding a middle school and a high school science and engineering fair. They are looking for undergraduate students, graduate students, post-docs, and anyone working in the field of science to act as judges to help assess projects, and to talk with their students about what careers in the science are like. They aim to provide connections between their students and scientists in the field, as they work with many minorities and girls who do not have a lot of access to interact with scientists.
Breakfast and lunch for the judges will be provided, and rides from nearby public transportation can be arranged if necessary.

Q: Searching for all tables in a Database that contain a field Working in Business Objects 6.5, I would like to search all the  tables in the environment to find the ones that contain the feild "POID"

A: If you have access to the repository tables, you can use this query to search for all tables in all universes that contain the specified field name:
select
    u.uni_longname,
    t.tab_name,
    c.column_name,
from
    unv_table t,
    unv_columns c,
    unv_universe u
where
    t.table_id = c.table_id
    and t.universe_id = c.universe_id
    and u.universe_id = t.universe_id
    and t.column_name = 'xxxxxx'

If you don't have access to the repository tables, I would just export the universe to PDF (File->Export in Designer), then just search the PDF for the field.

THE MODERATOR: Questions for Pat.
Q. Just want to talk about your night. You had a tremendous game, obviously, with what you did. I realize you lost the game, but your thoughts on your performance tonight?
PATRICK MAHOMES: I did well. Definitely could have done better. A lot of throws I underthrew, overthrew. But didn't get the win, so it wasn't good enough.
Q. Did you know you (indiscernible)?
PATRICK MAHOMES: Someone told me in the locker room. But, like I said, we didn't win the game so it really didn't matter.
Q. What was it like when you were going back and forth, back and forth what? What kind of pressure does that put on an offense there, knowing more than likely they were going to score?
PATRICK MAHOMES: They have a great team. Overall they have a great team, overall a great defense. They have a great offense. I knew it was going to be a high scoring game. I knew they would come out, put points up. But I trust our defense to get stops. I was just trying to score as many times as I can to help them out.
Q. Would it surprise you that each team had 854 yards of total yards of offense?
PATRICK MAHOMES: I knew it was a lot. I didn't know it was that much. Like I said, we needed to find ways to get timely stops, get timely touchdowns where we can find ways to win the game where we haven't in the past.
Q. What did you think about the play of your wide receivers tonight? Obviously some amazing catches (indiscernible) had several one in the end zone?
PATRICK MAHOMES: We're really deep at receivers. We have some guys out. And the guys just stepping up and making plays. And we said it before the season started, and it's really shown this year. I trust them a lot, try to get the ball in their hands and let them make the plays.
Q. What's the difference for you guys offensively tonight? I mean, was the offensive line just keeping their defensive line away from you guys a little bit longer?
PATRICK MAHOMES: I mean, definitely. They played really well tonight, offensive line. I don't know if I got sacked any.
But I played better with just getting the ball out, not taking the sacks, not trying to do too much, just trusting the offense. And we had a lot more confidence going in this week. We wanted to go out and prove to everybody that last week was a fluke and it wasn't going to happen again.
Q. Feel better physically, throwing it 80 times?
PATRICK MAHOMES: Yeah, I mean, I'm getting better every week. It's something where I'm going to keep going, keep trying to get better. Like I said, I've just got to get the ball out fast, get it in their hands, trusting the system.
Q. Feel more confident running, though? We talked about it on Monday that you seemed kind of hesitant. Health-wise you're not thinking about things like that when you're rolling out?
PATRICK MAHOMES: Especially not in a game like that, where it's going back and forth. You just want to try to win the game any way possible. So I really wasn't thinking about any injuries or anything like that. I was just trying to win the game.
Q. Did you have a chance to talk postgame with Baker Mayfield?
PATRICK MAHOMES: Yeah, I talked to him a little bit. He said: Good job. I told him he did a great job and good luck the rest of the way out. I mean, he's a great quarterback. And that's a really good football team.
Q. Just from the effort standpoint, were you pleased with what you guys did tonight compared to a week ago?
PATRICK MAHOMES: Definitely. There was never any quit. I mean, they scored a lot, but you could tell the defense was going out there and fighting.
They were fighting. And we just didn't find ways to win. And, I mean, I was acceptable with the effort. But we've just got to find ways to just win the game.
Q. Pat, 59 points in this performance, do you feel like that was enough to win the game today?
PATRICK MAHOMES: We didn't get the win, so I guess not. We just need to score more than they do.

The Shelter Labeled Him 'Aggressive' But His New Mom Says He Just Loves Life
When this Pitbull, Cruz, was brought to the shelter, he had on a choke stick and was mislabeled as 'aggressive.' His coat was filthy. He must have been left outside or living as a stray for a very long time, as he was also infested with ticks.
The first 60 seconds of the following video shows Cruz inside his kennel run for the very first time. As you can see, he's a shy dog who is very hesitant to approach the kind woman named Maria. He refuses to look into her eyes, he sits with his back toward her, and he hangs his head low.
This heartbreaking behavior is that of a damaged creature, so neglected and stigmatized by the world that his true self has been repressed. Pitbulls have a bad reputation that leaves many people with the presumption that members of this breed are naturally aggressive, bothersome, challenging to train, and simply bad pet dogs in general.
For whatever reason, these pets have actually been singled out as savage beasts, when in truth it must be kept in mind that it's never ever the breed that's the issue; it's really the human who raised them. While there have actually been cases of Pitbull attacks, it's usually because those other dogs were raised in dreadful conditions, mistreated, or perhaps trained to attack.
Frankly, ALL dogs should be treated with respect and caution before their temperaments are known. So when Maria Sanchez stumbled upon one of these "aggressive" animals at the local shelter, she knew she had to investigate.
The shelter people said the dog was extremely aggressive — but they had no proof either directly or from the animal's previous owner. 'You can see from this video he isn't aggressive; he was just scared. He was so happy to get out of his kennel and into the play yard. He just has such a love for life.' Check out this beautiful story in the video just below.

About Rocky
Rocky and his sire, Vegas, playing in the snow
Rocky was one of the puppies from our first homebred litter, born on St. Patrick's Day 2005. He lives in southwestern Virginia with Ryan Gilbeau.
Rocky started showing in the Fall of 2005, to get some experience in the ring as a puppy, and was brought out in 2006 to finish his AKC Championship. At his first show in 2006, he was awarded Winners Dog/Best of Winners for his first point. He showed throughout the spring and early summer and the first weekend in August he was awarded both of his majors, and with them - his Champion title. Rocky is the first Bred-By champion prouduced by the LAMZ kennel. He was invited to, and attended the AKC/Eukanuba National Championship in December 2006 and showed very well for a young dog, but was retired from the conformation ring soon after as we were focused on the specials campaign of his sire, Vegas.
Rocky sired one litter in 2006, resulting in 3 blue male puppies. One of those puppies, Ch LAMZ Hollywood Scandal "Woody," was shown and finished his championship in just 5 weekends of showing. Another male from that litter, LAMZ Rumor Has It "Rumor," was returned to us (due to his prior owner's failing health) as a veteran and finished his Championship at 9 years old.
Rocky has competed in earthdog trials on numerous occasions and has passed the Intro to Quarry test many times. He earned his Junior Earthdog title in just a handful of tests, although they were spread out over a 7-year span!
At 10.5 years old, Rocky is retired from competition and stays home most weekends to enjoy the human company of his owner, Ryan.

Q: Remove top corner of a table I want to remove the top left corner box of my table, but for now it looks like this:
\begin{table}[htp!]
\centering
\resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{
\begin{tabular}{|p{4.1cm}||p{5.5cm}||p{5.5cm}|}
\cline{2-3}
\multicolumn{1}{c|}{} & item 1 & item 2 \\
    \hline \hline
1 & 2 & 3 \\
    \hline \hline
1 & 2 & 3 \\
    \hline \hline
1 & 2 & 3 \\
    \hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}

A: It is not entirely clear what you want here. Perhaps you mean that you want the new "outside" borders to be single lines rather than double? As you may have noticed, \cline doesn't include any space after it, so doubling it is ineffective. Of the solutions mentioned in that post, I think the hhline package is easiest:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{hhline}
\begin{document}
\begin{table}[htp!]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{|p{4.1cm}||p{5.5cm}||p{5.5cm}|}

The hhline package also lets you control which lines continue through the intersections and which are broken, in case you actually want distinct boxes rather than connected ones (or want vertical connections as well as horizontal ones).

A: More or less off-topic :-)
I like to discourage you to design of table as you do in your MWE. Vertical rules  in (accordance with wide spread opinion) should not be used, horizontal lines had to be reduced to minimum etc. For more about professional table settings, please read documentation of booktabs package.
Next, don't use \resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{... for determine table width. It beside natural table width change also font size. Better approach is use for example tabularx (which also offer column type X, which width is self calculated),  or tabular*.
So see, if the following solution is appealing to you:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{booktabs,% for professional looking tables
            tabularx}% for table with determined width

\usepackage{showframe}% for showing page layout
\renewcommand*\ShowFrameColor{\color{red}}

\begin{document}

    \begin{table}[ht]
\centering
\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{ p{22mm}% <-- please set width to your wish

Being immersed in a new culture, there are differences that everyone will notice compared to their own culture. Some people may not notice the same differences as others, but some of the differences we noticed are the treatment of animals, the definition of beauty, obsession with working out and sense of community among the population. Traveling all over the country, we have noticed all of these differences in every place we have visited.
In the U.S. animals are part of the family and are treated that way. My own dog is so spoiled and if we take him in the car with us he has to have ice water or else he won't drink it. In the U.S. it is also a requirement that you have your animal spayed or neutered. If you adopt an animal from a pound, they will normally have the animal fixed for you. Looking at the treatment of animals in Thailand they are treated like animals. Many people can say that it is good that they are treated that way because they are animals but it was really hard for me to get used to. I also haven't seen one animal that has been fixed which will result in too many stray animals.
Another difference that we noticed was the definition of beauty. In the U.S. people love to tan. There are tanning salons, spray tans, self tanner and laying out on the beach or poolside. In Thailand everyone wants to have light skin. Paul, one of the Thai students, and I were talking about how he wants my color skin and I would like to have his. I really don't understand why there is such a difference in Americans wanting dark skin and Thais wanting light skin. In drug stores, all of their soap and lotions have skin lightening in it. Most of these products can damage the skin permanently. Also, we think the heat is hard to deal with and if we could, we would probably wear as little clothes as possible. For Thais and especially farm workers, they are covered up at all times from head to toe. I guess the reason for this is everyone wants what they can't have.
In the United States we are raised to be independent individuals with freedom to do and say as we please. In this way, there is a constant drive to be the best that we can be because we have the opportunity to do so. We are encouraged to always think for ourselves to help us to be on an independent successful path in life. Rarely do we know where our food comes from for the 3+ meals we eat a day, rarely do we have close relationships with everyone in our extended families and rarely do we have gratitude for the tremendous amount of material wealth the majority of us possess.
From what I have noticed being in Thailand, the ideals of being independent are not nearly as encouraged. Children here grow up with their entire family, having a close relationship to their relatives. Many children (especially in the rural villages) are encouraged and expected to work at a very young age to provide for their family. There is a tremendous amount of respect and gratitude for their heritage, for their family and the food that is available to fuel them. This amazing amount of gratitude is present because every person in the community is involved in those things manifesting.
Thailand is also 90% Buddhist meaning that the majority of people here believe that it is our duty in life to help one another and give/share what we have no matter how poor we are. I could really see that belief in action when we visited the Aids Hospice. People who have Aids or HIV come from all over the world to stay at this hospice because they are treated like humans. Not as infected aliens. The belief of the people who started this hospice is that with love, compassion and humanity they can return strength and hope to AIDS sufferers, who were abandoned by their families and shunned by the world, to get back on their feet and give them the will to fight the disease. Many countries, including the United States, have a very different view on AIDS and HIV, which makes it hard for any long term change to occur on the perceptions of it. Seeing the AIDS hospice here in Thailand gave me hope that change can occur with love and compassion.
Our stay here in Thailand has opened my eyes to the differences in beliefs between the United States. Gratitude is missing in our culture. With it we would be a much more cohesive and efficient country. I hope that through this experience I can transfer some of what we have learned from the Thai culture, to our communities at home.

Q: Calculate the following integral $ \int\frac{2x+1}{x^{n+2}(x+1)^{n+2}}\ln\left(\frac{2x^2+2x+1}{x^2(x+1)^2}+\frac7{16}\right)dx$ Hello I am trying to solve a pretty complicated integral. It is a from a set of problems, published in a monthly journal for high school students and they are exercises in preparation for a competition.
So the problem is the following: Calculate the integral $ \int \frac {2x+1}{x^{n+2}(x+1)^{n+2}} \ln\left(\frac {2x^2+2x+1}{x^2(x+1)^2} + \frac{7}{16}\right)dx$
I first tried partial integration, integrating $\frac {2x+1}{x^{n+2}(x+1)^{n+2}}$, it is happily easy to do it and we will end up with $\int \frac {2x+1}{x^{n+2}(x+1)^{n+2}} = \frac {-1}{x^{n+1}(x+1)^{n+1}}$.
I also differentiated $\ln\left(\frac {2x^2+2x+1}{x^2(x+1)^2} + \frac{7}{16}\right)$, ending up with $\frac {-64x^3-96x^2-96x-32}{7x^6+21x^5+71x^3+48x^2+16x}$
Now when I try to solve the integral of the product of these two, I am stuck.
I also thought about some kind of recursive relationship in terms of $n$ but I am not sure about it.
I would happily accept any help in solving this problem. Thanks in advance.

A: Integrate by parts:
$$\int \frac{2x+1}{x^{n+2}(x+1)^{n+2}} \ln\left(\frac{2x^2+2x+1}{x^2(x+1)^2} + \frac7{16}\right) \, dx \\
= -\frac1{n+1} \frac{\ln\left(\frac{2x^2+2x+1}{x^2(x+1)^2}+\frac7{16}\right)}{x^{n+1}(x+1)^{n+1}} - \frac{32}{n+1} \int \frac{2x^3+3x^2+3x+1}{x^{n+2}(x+1)^{n+2} \left(7x^4+14x^3+39x^2+32x+16\right)} \, dx$$
Expand into partial fractions:
$$\frac{2x^3+3x^2+3x+1}{7x^4+14x^3+39x^2+32x+16} = \frac18 \left(\frac{2x+1}{x^2+x+4} + \frac{2x+1}{7x^2+7x+4}\right)$$
The remaining integrals are elementary. For instance, substituting
$$x=\frac{\sqrt{4u-15}-1}2 \implies u = x^2+x+4 \implies du=2x+1\,dx$$
leads to
$$\int \frac{2x+1}{x^{n+2}(x+1)^{n+2}(x^2+x+4)} \, dx = \int \frac{du}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{4u-15}-1}2\right)^{n+2} \left(\frac{\sqrt{4u-15}-1}2+1\right)^{n+2} u} = \int \frac{du}{\left(u-4\right)^{n+2}u}$$
and can be further developed with partial fraction expansions.

A: Starting as you did, with
$$du=\frac {2x+1}{x^{n+2}(x+1)^{n+2}}\,dx\qquad \text{and}\qquad v=\log\left(\frac {2x^2+2x+1}{x^2(x+1)^2} + \frac{7}{16}\right)$$as you wrote
$$u= -\frac {1}{(n+1)x^{n+1}(x+1)^{n+1}}$$ $$ dv=-\frac{32 (2 x+1) \left(x^2+x+1\right)}{x (x+1) \left(x^2+x+4\right) (7 x^2+7x+4)}$$
$$u\,dv=\frac {32}{n+1}\,\,\frac{ (2 x+1) \left(x^2+x+1\right)}{x (x+1) \left(x^2+x+4\right) (7 x^2+7x+4)x^{n+1}(x+1)^{n+1}}$$ Consider now that
$$A=\frac{ (2 x+1) \left(x^2+x+1\right)}{x (x+1) \left(x^2+x+4\right) (7 x^2+7x+4)}$$ can be decomposed as
$$A=-\frac{2}{x}-\frac{2}{x+1}+\frac 1{a-b}\left(\frac{2 a+1}{x-a}-\frac{2 b+1}{x-b} \right)+\frac 1{c-d}\left(\frac{2 c+1}{x-c}-\frac{2 d+1}{x-d}\right)$$ where $(a,b)$ are the complex roots of $x^2+x+4=0$ and $(c,d)$ are the complex roots of $7x^2+7x+4=0$.
So, we face by the end
$$I_1=\int \frac {dx}{ x^{n+2} (x+1)^{n+1}}=-\frac{\, _2F_1(-n-1,n+1;-n;-x)}{(n+1)x^{n+1}}$$
$$I_2=\int \frac {dx}{ x^{n+1} (x+1)^{n+2}}=-\frac{ \, _2F_1(-n,n+2;1-n;-x)}{n x^n}$$
where appears the Gaussian hypergeometric function
and four integrals of the form
$$I_k=\int \frac {dx}{x^{n+1}(x+1)^{n+1}(x-k)} \quad\quad\quad k\neq 0 \quad k \in \mathbb{C}$$
$$I_k=\frac {\frac{x F_1\left(1-n;n,1;2-n;-x,\frac{x}{k}\right)}{k^2 (n-1)}+\frac{(2 k+1) \,
   _2F_1(-n,n;1-n;-x)}{k n}-\frac{(x+1)^{-n}}{n}}{(1+k)x^n }$$ where also appears  the Appell hypergeometric function of two variables.
All of that seems to be complicated but as soon as you give $n$ an integer value you will have for
$$J_n=\int \frac {A}{x^{n+1}(x+1)^{n+1}}\,dx$$ things like
$$\color{blue}{J_n=\alpha_n \sqrt{7} \tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{ \sqrt{7}}{3} (2 x+1)\right)+\beta_n \sqrt{15} \tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{2 x+1}{\sqrt{15}}\right)+}$$
$$\color{blue}{\gamma_n \log(x)+\delta_n \log(x^2+x+4)+\epsilon_n \log(7x^2+7x+4)-\frac{P_{n-1}(x)}{x^{n+1}}}$$ where $(\alpha_n,\beta_n, \gamma_n,\delta_n ,\epsilon_n)$ are rational numbers and all coefficients in the polynomials are all rational and positive.
Notice that the last integral in @user170231's answer
$$I=\int \frac{du}{\left(u-4\right)^{n+2}u}=-\frac {\, _2F_1\left(1,-n-1;-n;1-\frac{u}{4}\right) } {4 (n+1) (u-4)^{n+1} }$$

A: As said in comments, using $u=x(x+1)$  as @David Quinn suggested the problem reduces to
$$I=\int\frac 1 {u^{n+2}} \log \left(\frac{7 u^2+32 u+16}{16 u^2}\right)\,du$$ which is
$$I=-\frac{2+(n+1) \log \left(16 u^2\right)}{(n+1)^2\, u^{n+1}}+\int \frac 1 {u^{n+2}}\log(7 u^2+32 u+16)\,du $$
$$J=\int \frac 1 {u^{n+2}}\log(7 u^2+32 u+16)\,du $$
$$J=\log(7)\int \frac {du}{u^{n+2}}+\int \frac{\log(u+4)}{u^{n+2}}\,du+\int \frac{\log \left(u+\frac{4}{7}\right)}{u^{n+2}}\,du$$
$$J=-\frac{\log(7)}{(n+1) u^{n+1} }+\int \frac{\log(u+4)}{u^{n+2}}\,du+\int \frac{\log \left(u+\frac{4}{7}\right)}{u^{n+2}}\,du$$
$$K_a=\int \frac{\log \left(u+a\right)}{u^{n+2}}\,du$$
$$K_a=-\frac{u \,\, _2F_1\left(1,-n;1-n;-\frac{u}{a}\right)+a n \log (u+a) } {a n (n+1) u^{n+1} }$$


The debut CD from Marlon Lock entitled, The Good Seed Project debuted on the Billboard charts of top gospel albums at No. 19, on May 19, 2015, with the quartet single: "He Delivered Me." The Good Seed Project was nominated in 2 categories, for the 2016 Stellar Awards: New Artist of the Year and Traditional CD of the Year!
Disturbed by the on slot of violence amongst law enforcement and civilians, Marlon was moved with compassion during the Mike Brown to write another song. "Hang On" encourages the listening audience not to let go of God's promises and His principles when faced with unimaginable adversity. "Hang On", inspired by the many challenges the world face today, was produced by 9-time Grammy Award winning producer, Kevin Bond.
In preparation for a conference that forever changed his Pastoral obligations, Marlon wanted to release a 10-year old powerful worship song that his congregation had been singing. "You Covered Me" was released April 15, 2016. The song reminds the listening audience that even through the darkest of tragedies, it could've been worse. God sent His Son to take the punishment that we deserved. He then, gave His angels charge over us, to cover us.
Marlon Lock released his sophomore album, Unleashed, August 19, 2016. Unleashed gives the listening audience a broader perspective of the musical style and versatility he demonstrates. All songs were written by Marlon, with some collaboration with his wife, Author Kimberly Lock. The album was produced by Grammy nominated producer, Chad "C-Note" Roper.
OGHBYRG Productions is an independent record label founded upon the vision of Pastor Marlon Lock, in honor and admiration of his grandparents – Apostle Eldridge and Prophetess Naomi Lock. Apostle Lock coined the phrase: "Obey God & He'll Bless You Real-l-l-l ood!"; and in an effort to continue the legacy of Apostle and Prophetess Lock, OGHBYRG Productions was created.

NYT pits avocado-toast millennials against privileged boomers in Biden pitch, and nobody's buying it
© Wikipedia
Is Joe Biden the man to end America's generational and partisan divides? One New York Times writer thinks so, but an avalanche of comments not seeing it put the spotlight on a brewing generation war.
With the democratic party being pushed to the left by socialists like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and the 'tax cuts and globalization' Republicans sidelined by the bombastic theater of President Donald Trump, former Vice President Joe Biden has focused his 2020 campaign on themes of unity and a return to the Washington consensus. "This nation needs to come together," he told a rally in Philadelphia on Saturday, "let's stop fighting and start fixing."
It's time we pick our heads up, come together, and remember our best days are still ahead. #TeamJoepic.twitter.com/Ke9vCO1aBD
— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) May 18, 2019
The New York Times' Bret Stephens was enthralled. In an opinion piece published the same day, Stephens lauds Biden's centrism, and congratulates the 76-year-old former VP for refusing to cave to the more outlandish demands of his party's newly-energized left.
"No faction on the Democratic side more richly deserves rebuking than the one Biden singled out," he wrote, referring to "all those who recklessly participate in the search-and-destroy missions of the call-out culture" – the outrage mobs who recently hounded Harvard law professor Ronald Sullivan out of a job for taking a job defending disgraced media mogul Harvey Weinstein, and physically assaulted college professors for daring to host debates with right-wing panelists.
"The sensible center" want a leader like Biden, Stephens argues, not a candidate who'll indulge the whims of the "chortling twenty-somethings" leading the outrage brigades.
So case closed, Biden's the man to do it. Stephens' article confirmed the biases of some of the Times' readership, like commenter 'Phyliss Dalmatian,' a 60-year-old who called Stephens the "voice of common sense and encouragement."
"I say to the millennials: put up, or shut up. Put down the Facebook, Twitter, avocado toast, "influencer" blogs, and VOTE," she wrote. "Save the snark for your Elders, we have much experience." The Times' editors were evidently impressed with Phyliss' 'stay off my lawn' sass, retweeting her social commentary for all to see.
"I'm 60, and I say to the millennials: Put down the Facebook, Twitter, avocado toast, 'influencer' blogs, and VOTE. Save the snark for your elders, we have much experience," writes a reader on Bret Stephens's "Dear Millennials: the Feeling is Mutual." https://t.co/X89GinVSONpic.twitter.com/nJY0q0bZE7
— New York Times Opinion (@nytopinion) May 19, 2019
In pushing for an establishment favorite, Stephens unleashed the fury of "chortling twenty-somethings," and scores more millennials (generally defined as people born between 1981 and the mid-1990s).
"I'm 32 and I say stop blaming the generation with no job security, trillions in student loan debt, no affordable healthcare and a dying planet for the pain and suffering your generation has caused," wrote one.
I'm 32 and I say stop blaming the generation with no job security, trillions in student loan debt, no affordable healthcare and a dying🌏 for the pain and suffering your generation has caused. Instead of telling us how to clean up your mess, tell yourself to stop voting for evil. https://t.co/xsBRloFxN0

"Millennials have been fighting your messed up wars since 9/11," read another comment from 'G'. "Iraq. Katrina. Great Recession. $1 trillion student debt. Sandy Hook. Over 400 ppm CO2. A dying planet. I'm tired of the OLDER generations' whining and entitlement. Move aside. You've done enough damage."

"Validation and basic respect are what's needed here," read another comment. "Not a patronizing lecture."
"It betrays a fundamental weakness in our society when so many of our 'elders,' who also happen to come from the most economically privileged generation in human history, take this much pleasure in baselessly maligning their own children," said Joseph from Sacramento. "Some example you're all setting... Good luck, America."
Scores of further comments suggest that it's not just millennials struggling in America, and more than just one generation are angry at Stephens' generalization.
Whatever the narrative, there are more than 83 million millennials in America, according to 2014 data from the Census Bureau. These millennials are only going to become a more potent political force, and even in 2014 outnumbered the Baby Boomers by nearly 10 million, Their impact was seen in 2016, when their support was critical in propelling Bernie Sanders' campaign onto the national stage. During the primary season that year, more under-30s voted for Sanders than Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump combined.
As is evident in the reaction to Stephens' editorial, the generation gap is another political fault line any 2020 contender will have to navigate, and Democratic leaders have so far been unsure which side to stake a claim to. Sanders has continued to market himself to millennials, promising to help them with student loan debt and falling living standards.
The Boomer generation needed just 306 hours of minimum wage work to pay for four years of public college.Millennials need 4,459.The economy today is rigged against working people and young people. That is what we are going to change.
— Bernie Sanders (@BernieSanders) April 24, 2019
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, meanwhile, has called for Biden/Clinton style centrism, in an effort to make her party more palatable to older voters.
"Own the center left, own the mainstream," the 79-year-old Congresswoman told the New York Times earlier this month, warning candidates against embracing "some of the other exuberances that exist in our party."

UNC Basketball
Why the North Carolina Tar Heels Will Win the 2011 Las Vegas Invitational
Gil Imber@RefereeOrganistTwitter LogoAnalyst IINovember 17, 2011
When the North Carolina Tar Heels last played in Paradise, Nevada's Orleans Arena, they won two games to come away with the 2007 Las Vegas Invitational Championship.
In the world of collegiate basketball, nothing has been quite as consistent as North Carolina's success under head coach Roy Williams.
The Tar Heels play their first game of the 2011 Las Vegas Invitational against Mississippi Valley State on November 20 at home in Chapel Hill, but before UNC embarks on their road to Las Vegas, here are five reasons why North Carolina will win the quasi round-robin tournament.
No. 5: Tar Heels Have Succeeded in Las Vegas Before
When the Tar Heels left North Carolina to play in the 2007 Las Vegas Invitational, they came away with four easy wins over Iona, South Carolina State, Old Dominion and Brigham Young.
Their biggest challenge during the 2007 event was BYU, as North Carolina defeated the Cougars by only 10 points. Junior center Tyler Hansbrough played well enough to be named Invitational MVP and the Tar Heels continued on, flirting with the No. 1 ranking for the rest of the 2007-2008 basketball season.
History has a way of repeating itself, so when UNC goes to Nevada later this month, expect them to come back to North Carolina with a Las Vegas Invitational Championship.
No. 4: Head Coach Roy Williams
Tar Heels head coach Roy Williams might be the best of the best.
Since rejoining North Carolina as a head coach in 2003, 10 days after he coached Kansas in the 2003 NCAA Championship game, Williams has experienced consistent success with his UNC teams.
The venerable Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame inductee has won two NCAA Division I Championships (2005, 2009), has been to the Final Four seven times (three with the Tar Heels) and was named AP Coach of the Year while at UNC in 2006.
With a career record of 643-163, Williams is simply one of the best coaches in college basketball history.
Coaches like Williams are those who tend to coach their teams to victory time and time again.
According to Williams, the Tar Heels choose which tournaments to play in "based on where I like to go."
Something tells me his players will appreciate his judgment in choosing to play an early-season tournament in Las Vegas.
No. 3: Tradition of Strong Seniors, 2011 Squad Led by Tyler Zeller
An experienced All-Star caliber veteran: over the past 10 years, the North Carolina Tar Heels have been fortunate to have had a series of strong team leaders.
When current 7'0'' senior Tyler Zeller was a freshman, he had the privilege of playing NCAA basketball on the same team as then-senior forward Tyler Hansbrough.
Hansbrough, now on the Indiana Pacers who may or may not play basketball this season, was a standout at North Carolina. He was a John Wooden Award winner, an AP and Naismith College Player of the Year and a four-time All-American (three first-team).
Zeller also played with standout guard Ty Lawson, now of the Denver Nuggets and Marcus Ginyard. Before them, it was Jawad Williams (Cleveland Cavaliers).
The Tar Heels have a history of strong senior leaders, and 2011-12's senior to watch is Tyler Zeller.
He averaged 15.7 points per game last season with 7.2 rebounds per contest.
Expect big things from the big man.
No. 2: Las Vegas Invitational Opponents Do Not Pose a Serious Challenge
Sure, if UNC ends up losing or somehow finding themselves in overtime during the Las Vegas Invitational, I'll be glad to eat crow.
Until then, however, UNC will win the Las Vegas Invitational because their opponents are simply not strong teams. Note that North Carolina's Game 4 opponent will be decided during the Invitational.
Game 1, Mississippi Valley State
MVSU is coming off a two game losing streak, having lost 80-67 against Notre Dame during their season opener and losing 80-70 to DePaul. Expect North Carolina to easily win Game 1.
Game 2, Tennessee State University
The Tigers earned an impressive 90-52 exhibition victory on November 1, but when the real basketball season started, TSU dropped two games to Saint Louis and Western Kentucky. After picking up an easy win against Fisk on Wednesday, TSU will meet South Carolina in Game 1 of the Las Vegas Invitational before taking on UNC in Game 2. Playing in Chapel Hill, this should be no problem for the Tar Heels.
Game 3, South Carolina
The scene shifts to Nevada for Game 3 as UNC takes on South Carolina in a slight intrastate rivalry. USC is 1-1 on the season, having defeated Western Carolina by 25 in their opener, but losing on the road to Elon after leaving the friendly confines of Colonial Life Arena. This matchup should certainly be more intriguing than the first two, but the Tar Heels will still pull out a win against the Gamecocks.
Game 4, Southern California
This game is dependent on results from earlier in this brief tournament. If North Carolina ends up playing their second USC school, the Tar Heels will meet a team playing at the .500 mark after coming off of sanctions related to NCAA bylaw violations committed by former Trojans O.J. Mayo and coach Tim Floyd. Expect USC to put up a decent fight, but still fall to the overpowering UNC squad.
Game 4, UNLV
If UNC ends up facing the Runnin' Rebels of UNLV, they will face the only opponent who, like the Tar Heels, has won the first two games of their regular season. UNLV also holds home field advantage: they will not play a game outside of the Las Vegas area until November 30, when they travel to UC Santa Barbara. Expect Dave Rice's squad to give UNC a good game, though they too will succumb to UNC's superior play in the end.
No. 1: North Carolina Tar Heels Are the Best Basketball Team in the Nation
From Zeller to Henson, Barnes and beyond, the North Carolina Tar Heels are simply the best team in NCAA Division I basketball and their No. 1 ranking confirms that theory.
After losing senior forward Justin Knox and senior guards Daniel Bolick and Van Hatchell, North Carolina more than made up for the loss by welcoming freshmen James McAdoo (ESPN grade 98), P.J. Hairston (97), Desmond Hubert (90), Jackson Simmons (89) and Stilman White (78).
With sophomore Luke Davis electing to redshirt, the Tar Heels still have more than enough talent on the team to ensure they will remain a dominant force through the 2011-12 season.
Entering the Las Vegas invitational with an expected 2-0 seasonal record, the Tar Heels should have little problem beating their opponents to claim their second Las Vegas Invitational Championship in as many trips to Paradise.


The United Church of Canada and The United Church of Christ USA are jointly launching a commitment to the United Nations International Decade for People of African Descent, which runs 2015–2024.
The two churches are not the only bodies who have committed to the UN Decade. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau recently announced that the Government of Canada will officially recognize the decade, and remarked that Canadians must realize that anti-Black racism and unconscious bias do exist in this country.
The UN identifies people of African descent as a group whose rights need to be "protected and promoted." As part of our full communion agreement, The United Church of Canada and the United Church of Christ will work together on strategies to address that through common resources and liturgies that advance racial justice, intercultural commitments, equity, and diversity. Watch for more resources, including a feature article in the winter 2018 edition of Mandate.

Fallen officer's wife promotes blood drive for Brentwood police
Emily R. West
Nashville Tennessean
BRENTWOOD — Heather Legieza sat in front of a portrait of her husband inside the Brentwood Police Department.
A day ahead of the seventh annual Battle of the Badges, Legieza wanted to promote the blood drive in honor of her husband, Destin, who died in a car crash in late June while returning his Brentwood police car.
"Find something you're passionate about and love, and then give back," Legieza said, her fingers clasped in her lap. "Most people know someone who has needed blood, and it makes you feel good, especially this year."
The competition will return to the Brentwood Library on Aug. 26 and Aug. 27. The community donated 322 pints during last year's blood drive. This year's goal is to collect more than 347 pints of blood and platelet donations.
More:'He was a helluva man:' Family, friends remember Brentwood officer Destin Legieza
Legieza said her promotion for the Brentwood Police Department is meaningful since it's only been months since the death of her husband, who has been the only officer killed on duty in the department's history.
"I am doing OK," she said. "It's hard. I miss him every day. I think about him every day. I definitely think it's hard. I miss my best friend. But Destin did this every year even though he hated needles. I always encourage people to give back. Everyone has gone through hard things this year. Destin did this blood drive every year. He would encourage people to sign up."

Typically, the Battle of the Badges blood drive is a national rivalry among first responder groups to help ensure the blood supply keeps pace with demand during the holidays. Groups participating this year include the Brentwood Fire and Rescue Department, the Brentwood Police Department, the Williamson County Sheriff's Office and the Fraternal Order of Police.
Participants will receive a Red Cross T-shirt and refreshments, plus a chance to win door prizes like a Yeti cooler, a spa package and gift cards. Sports talk station 102.5-FM will be broadcasting live on Wednesday afternoon.

The worth and charm of iPhone 5 is sure to remain evergreen for many years to come with a multitude of people getting attracted towards it every day. With its ultimate launch on September 12, 2012, after such a long wait, people are just dying to get their hands on this phone. After all the speculation and rumors that have been around from the start of 2012, this phone does answer the prayers of millions of Apple fans around the globe and all of its competitors as well. But to the great dismay of Apple handset lovers in the country, there has been set high Apple iPhone 5 price in Pakistan and majority of the interested individuals will be unable to afford it.
There are two major aspects of this phone that the potential buyers do need to understand before going for it. First of all, the manufacturers at Apple have focused more on the software, including the usability and user friendliness of the phone, rather than going for advanced hardware configurations. The second thing about this marvelous gadget is its highly stylish yet human based design that makes it a class of its own. Still, it is a perfect blend of two extremes because along with a number of positive aspects of this phone, there are a few negative elements associated with it as well that cannot be set aside.
While looking at the specs sheet to buy Apple iPhone 5, most of the people fail to realize what actually this phone must be worth. Being merely 112 g, it is lighter than most of the hottest phones available in the market, for example, Galaxy SIII stands at 133 g and Apple iPhone 4S weighs 140 g.
Another aspect, that cannot be ignored at any cost, is that of its thinness, being just 7.6 mm whereas Apple 4S is 9.3 mm thick, Galaxy S III is 8.6 mm and HTC One X stands at 8.9 mm. This level of slimness makes your new postmodern gadget easy to get hold of and operate as you desire.
The exclusive body design must have been a matter of prime interest for its designers, and this is the reason, when most of the newly launched smartphones have bigger screen sizes (4.3 or 4.5 inches), Apple has a simple yet ravishing 4-inch screen. It is, indeed, a nice little capacitive backlit TFT touchscreen furnished with 640 x 1136 pixels and reinforced by Corning Gorilla Glass and Apple oleophobic coatings.
Apple iPhone 5 came with a good set of surprises as well, one of them being its new A6 processor, which is much smaller in size, better in speed and draws less energy of battery than the previous processors introduced by Apple.
Amazing iOS 6: The operating system is however what was expected, i.e. iOS 6, which was introduced only a short time ago.
Siri Natural Language Support: Other impressive features include Apple's hallmark Siri natural language support, iCloud service and iBooks reader.
Extended Battery Backup: Compared to most of the high-end smartphones around you, it gives an amazing battery backup going around 8 hours of talk-time or 10 hours of music play or 225 hours of standby time.
The downsides of the phone are equally there, which are being described here so that they may address your queries and influence the process of decision making.
Like all of the Apple products, the present device does not come with external card slot, so the buyers left with the only option of choosing from 16, 32 or 64 GB built in storages.
First of all, compared to most of the latest smartphones around, its display is not that impressive as it must have been, otherwise.
It is not understandable for the users why Apple keeps limiting the storage capacity when people want more space to keep all of their favorite music, videos and important files with them.
Talking of its results, the camera is also nothing to fancy at, and Nokia Lumia 920 seems to be a far better option than this one.
It is quite disappointing for the Apple fans and completely childish for company itself to make phones, which only support nano-SIM when most of the telecom carriers are not delivering such services, especially in the international markets.
The very high Apple iPhone 5 price makes the smart and lovely handset beyond the reach of the low income Apple fans all around the world. Even the lowest price for any version of the phone is much more than that of Samsung Galaxy S3 or HTC One X.
Yes, the phone is reliable and a symbol of high status but when it comes to performance and delivering more than what people expect from it, Apple iPhone 5 does not impress.


A card with several services in and around the Villnöss valley in the Dolomites. The new DolomitiMobil Card, that we put at disposal of our guests for free, combines the free use of all public means of transport with the free entry in over 80 participating museums in the whole South Tyrol. In summer you can take part to guided excursions and alpine tours, visit the swimming pools Aquarena in Brixen, in Klausen und Feldthurns, or use the trip busses and the Seceda funicular for free.
In winter the card offers you the free use of the"Filler" skilift in Villnöss (1 x week) and of the "Maders" skilift in Schnauders/Feldthurns, guided snowshoe hikes, the Plose skibus and the " Skisafari" winter bus.
Moreover there are also different occasions for wine tasting in the participating wine cellars of the Eisack valley.


This election has been heated and stressful to say the least, a constant barrage of information and ideas and oppositions. It has also been a powerful illustration, proof of our insatiable desire as human beings to connect with one another and share our passions.
During this political season, many take to social media to communicate concerns about and support for candidates of choice. We want to be heard, to be supported, and, if possible, to sway others to cross over to our side, to see things the way that we see them or at least to understand why we hold certain convictions.
And I have heard many people lamenting about the current state of affairs, the vitriol-tinged climate that is being pushed on us over and over by a mainstream media bent on selling advertising by dividing a nation.
No matter who wins on November 8, roughly half of our country will be in mourning. Either way, a significant portion of the population will be upset or worse, apathetic, wondering why they wasted so much time and effort on a losing battle.
What a powerful time to concentrate our energies on our Orthodox ministries.
Whether or not the candidate you prefer wins on Election Day, set a goal to maintain your passion to support issues that are meaningful to you. Stay engaged by instead promoting the Faith that is always waiting to embrace you during moments of elation and devastation alike.
Our Orthodox faith is filled with organizations dedicated to bringing people together and serving those in need of everything from food to finances to spiritual inspiration. And these organizations benefit greatly from our assistance and encouragement. As the holiday season begins in just a few short weeks, consider dedicating your time, talents, or monetary support to one or all of the organizations listed below.

I'm down Thirty-One Pounds. Victor is under 200 lbs for the first time since he quit smoking and is down six pant sizes. This has put a huge smile on my face. I haven't cracked 200, yet, but I'm working on it! We're both looking – and feeling – pretty damned good. I plan on getting to my Disco-Weight – without the illicit drugs of yore!
When I first quit smoking in 1992, I gained 60 pounds. Everyone said it was better to be overweight than be a smoker, so I went with it. I lost some of them and then started smoking again, around 1997. I lost even more – but was still close to 20 over where I was in my prime smoking days. Then I quit, again, around 2006 – and the weight came back with a vengeance. I've been walking around with an extra 60 pounds for the past few years.
As I said, I'm the King of Justification.
But what a difference a few months makes. I have energy. I can get up out of a chair without grunting. I can make it up and down the stairs without being winded. My body is actually starting to work like it's supposed to. What a concept.
Our trainer is smart. He works us Monday and Wednesday, and then on Friday he pulls out all the stops. It is not easy by any stretch of the imagination. What really gets me is he will have us doing something that really looks as basic as basic can be – and either I can't do it at all, or I can barely eek out the most minimalist part of it – and then he adds another 10 pounds. He keeps pushing, knowing that little-by-little, we're making progress. He's not rushing us, but he's not letting us be complacent, either. I still can't touch my toes – but I'm down past my knees. I cannot sit on the floor with my legs straight out – but I can squat and get back up without effort. All things that 15 weeks ago were unheard of.
I never knew what I couldn't do because I compensated in other ways. I'm being taught how to un-compensate and do it right. The blinders are off and we're doing it right.
You've undoubtedly noticed we're eating pretty well around here. No dieting. It's smaller portions and better choices. I like bread. I still bake bread and I still eat bread – pretty much daily. Desserts are generally fresh fruit. I have no cravings for the ooey-gooey desserts of yesteryear. I actually miss making them more than I miss eating them – but I'm getting over it.
Dinner, tonight, was a steak and a baked sweet potato – with a lot of stuff in it. I pretty much just grabbed stuff out of the 'fridge and went for it.
Sauté fennel, leeks, mushrooms, carrots, and green onions until wilted and they start to soften. Add the rum, cover, and steam until vegetables are tender.
Stir in coconut milk and sambal oelek and bring to a boil.
Stir in riced or mashed sweet potato and mix well.
Fold into a small casserole dish and bake at 350°F for 20-30 minutes.
It's only taken me 66 years to open my eyes and see what was right in front of me. That's okay, though. A younger me would have just reached for another piece of pie.

Q: integration of $ \int_0^{+∞} \operatorname{sech}^2(x)e^{ux}dx$? $\def\sech{\operatorname{sech}}$
Please can anyone help me to take the integration of $$\int_0^{+\infty}\sech^2(x)e^{ux}dx$$ and $$\int_0^{+\infty}\cosh(x)e^{ux}dx$$
where $\sech(x)$ and $\cosh(x)$ are defined as hyperbolic secant and cosine functions, $e^{ux}$ is the exponential function,and $u$ is a constant.
Thank you for your help.

A: For the second one, we let $u=-s$
$$\begin{align}I&=\int_0^\infty e^{ux}\cosh x\,\mathrm dx\\&=\int_0^\infty e^{-sx}\cosh x\,\mathrm dx=\int_0^\infty e^{-st}\cosh t\,\mathrm dt\\&=\mathcal{L}(\cosh t)\\&=\dfrac{s}{s^2-a^2},\text{where }s=-u, \text{ and }a=1\\&=\dfrac{-u}{u^2-1}\\&=\dfrac{u}{1-u^2}\end{align}$$

A: For the second integral
$$ \int_0^\infty e^{ux}\cdot \frac{e^x + e^{-x}}{2} dx = \frac{1}{2}\int_0^\infty (e^{(u+1)x} + e^{(u-1)x})\ dx = \frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{e^{(u+1)x}}{u+1} + \frac{e^{(u-1)x}}{u-1} \right]_0^\infty $$
This only converges for $\Re(u) < -1$ and the answer is
$$ -\frac{1}{2} \left(\frac{1}{u+1} + \frac{1}{u-1} \right) = -\frac{u}{u^2-1} $$

For the first integral
$$ \begin{align}
\int_0^\infty \frac{4e^{ux}}{(e^x + e^{-x})^2} dx &=4 \int_0^\infty \frac{e^{ux}e^{-2x}}{(1+e^{-2x})^2}dx \\
&= 2\int_0^1 \frac{t^{-u/2}}{(1+t)^2} dt & (t=e^{-2x}) \\
&= 2\int_0^1 t^{-u/2}\left(\sum_{k=0}^\infty (k+1)(-1)^kt^k\right) dt \\
&= 2\sum_{k=1}^\infty (k+1)(-1)^k \int_0^1 t^{k-u/2} dt \\
&= 2\sum_{k=1}^\infty (-1)^k\frac{k+1}{k-u/2} \\
\end{align} $$
This converges for $\Re(u)<2$

A: For the sech integral, assume $u<0$. Then integration by parts gives
$$-u\int_0^\infty\tanh x\, e^{ux}\,dx.$$
Now
$$\tanh x=\frac{1-e^{-2x}}{1+e^{-2x}}
=1+2\sum_{n=1}^\infty(-1)^ne^{-2nx}.$$
Therefore
\begin{align}
\int_0^\infty\tanh x\, e^{ux}\,dx
&=\int_0^\infty e^{ux}+2\sum_{n=1}^\infty(-1)^n\int_0^\infty e^{-(2n-u)x}\,dx\\
&=-\frac1u+2\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{(-1)^n}{2n-u}.
\end{align}
The original integral equals
$$1-2u\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{(-1)^n}{2n-u}.$$
If one likes one can express this in terms of the digamma function
$$\frac{\Gamma'(z)}{\Gamma(z)}
=-\gamma+\sum_{n=1}^\infty\left(\frac1n-\frac1{n-1+z}\right).$$

A: $\newcommand{\sech}{\operatorname{sech}}$As Masacroso typed in a comment, a CAS gives
$$\int_0^{+\infty}\sech^2(x)e^{ux}\,dx=1+\frac{1}{2} u \left(H_{-\frac{u}{4}}-H_{-\frac{u}{4}-\frac{1}{2}}\right)$$ where appears harmonic numbers (the formule is valid if $\Re(u)<2$.
For the antiderivative,
$$(u+2)e^{-ux}\int\sech^2(x)e^{ux}\,dx$$ is given by $$(u+2) \, _2F_1\left(1,\frac{u}{2};\frac{u+2}{2};-e^{2 x}\right)-u e^{2 x} \,
   _2F_1\left(1,\frac{u+2}{2};\frac{u+4}{2};-e^{2 x}\right)+(u+2) \tanh (x)$$
The second one is simple.

Five Things: Crewe Alexandra 1-2 Bolton Wanderers
Talking points from our victory in the first round of the Carabao Cup
By Will H Jones@Wi1lJ Aug 11, 2017, 6:50pm BST
Share All sharing options for: Five Things: Crewe Alexandra 1-2 Bolton Wanderers

Here is what I picked out from our progression into the second round of the League Cup after our 2-1 victory over Crewe on Wednesday night.
1 - First Half Curse?
Going back to the Leeds game on Sunday, we started poorly and then gradually grew in to the game after the half time break, however, it shouldn't take that long for us to wake up if were going to be in with a chance of survival in the Championship this season. On Wednesday night, we once again found ourselves trailing at the break having struggled to forge a path through Crewe's back line. Of course, we didn't start at full strength and there were numerous debuts handed out meaning that our start was never going to make pretty football for those watching on. It eventually took a triple change on the hour mark to alter the scoreline and eventually turning the game round. Despite the worries of our first half on Wednesday, this shouldn't matter too much if we're back at full strength tomorrow, but it is crucial that we try and grab the first goal of the game rather than waiting for the opposition to wake up first.
2- Was it important that we got through?
There are several theories surrounding the importance of cup runs or alternatively, the need to focus on the league, for Bolton, these are irrelevant. As we all know, finances are tight and have been for some time, so a win was vital for us to allow us to progress through the rounds and potentially get a TV tie later down the line against a Premier League side. Some may argue that its pointless going on a cup run, but in reality, we need every penny we can get.
3- The Goalkeeper Dilemma
As everybody knows, since the start of last season, both Mark Howard and Ben Alnwick have been battling it out to earn themselves a starting place each week. Just recently it has got to a point where it is impossible to predict which one will be selected, which in a way is a good thing, usually. It's always good to have two available goalkeepers to act as backup for injuries or if one has a particularly poor game, however, with ours being so evenly matched in a good way, its perhaps not always best to keep switching it around because the defence need to set up in a way which they can work with the respective 'keeper and know their surroundings. Whilst alternating, it is impossible for the defence to keep up, particularly when the back line keeps changing too in terms of selection and formation. Ideally we need to stick with one for now, for me it would be Alnwick as the more vocal of the two and a better distribution weight, and keep the same back line for as much of the season as possible to allow them to feel familiar with the system that they're playing in every week rather than keep chopping and changing. Regardless of which 'keeper Parky prefers, its vital that he needs to stick with one and stick to his defensive guns too. From Wednesday night, Alnwick, Little and Burke should remain having all individually impressed whilst Beevers should be brought in to partner Burke at centre half with Andrew Taylor returning to left back for me.
4 - Formation changes
Very similar to my last point, but differs massively at the same time. A structure changes the way a team performs massively ranging from those in goal to those up front and to have a sense of familiarity with it is the key to consistency. For me, the three/five at the back needs to be scrapped. The wing-backs aren't quick enough to be wing backs at this level and we lose out every time down the wings and through the middle because the centre halves are being dragged out to cover for the make-shift full backs who have got too far forward and caught out. We have enough depth and enough ability now in each position to revert to a simple 4-4-2 which allows each player to play in their natural positions and have enough back ups incase of injury. Mark Little impressed me massively on Wednesday and I feel as if he should be allocated the right back spot with Morais RM in front of him. Down the other wing, Andrew Taylor at left back with Will Buckley at LM in front of him with two strikers, little and large, whichever combination of the four, I'm not fussed, each has the potential to work well enough with one another now. Gary Madine in particular could be one to benefit from this massively, his new-found confidence and ability to bring down the ball and knock it on to the other forward with dedicated wingers for wider support when in attack could be the way forward for Wanderers.
5 - Round 2
The draw which took place on Thursday night saw Wanderers earn themselves a tie with fellow Championship side Sheffield Wednesday at home. It, of course, would've been nice to get a Premier League side with their introduction at this round but the bigger Sheffield club of the two will have to do. it'll be a good test to have so early on against a side who were right up there last season and will show how far off the pace we are, it'll be realistic too with the numerous regulations in place with who has to start from the regular first team, who from the younger ranks can't etc. so it should be interesting to see how we go on, especially with another tough league fixture the Saturday before against Derby. Let's hope we can keep progressing through the rounds, but Sheffield Wednesday definitely wont be an easy affair. Que sara sara!
On to Millwall tomorrow, COYWM!

Scientists map brain connections in quest for Alzheimer's cure
by DNA India:
Scientists have mapped connections in the healthy elderly brain, known as a connectome, setting foundation for a new study into Alzheimer's.
The Elderly Connectome project by QIMR Berghofer scientists, in collaboration with colleagues at UNSW, also found new evidence of a neural basis for the different behaviour of men and women and that the gender differences in brain networks continue through to old age.
Lead investigator Alistair Perry from QIMR said the connnectome of the elderly brain is organized in a very similar way to that of a young adult, but its capacity to transfer information is slightly hindered. They believe that this related to the cognitive decline in some elderly people in areas such as memory, attention and processing complex tasks.
The scientists used the latest imaging technology in conjunction with sophisticated computer models to create the complex connectome map, and examined scans and data from the Sydney Memory and Ageing Study (MAS). Beginning in 2005, the MAS study examines over time the rate of cognitive decline in older individuals whose health is "better than average".
Perry said it provided additional evidence of a neural basis for different behaviour in men and women, and plotted the connections of 74 to 95 year olds.
While in elderly women they found stronger networks around verbal and language areas of the brain, in men there was not such a clear distinction but they found greater connections to the regions of the brain related to reward centres and behaviour regulation.
The study has been published in NeuroImage.

Daniel Pitin

Mihai Nicodim Gallery is proud to present the first solo show in the United States of the Czech artist Daniel Pitin.
Born in 1977, Daniel Pitin is part of a new generation of painters from Eastern Europe currently gaining a wide recognition from both institutions and private collections.
Filmic images have adopted a key role in the work of Daniel Pitin. As the artistic treatment of the interrelationship between images, film provides him with a point of departure and a source of inspiration. With film footage from the Communist period, which was part of his youth, stills from the seventies TV series and detective series, Pitin creates fictional settings by editing images and using the process of painting to create an open space where interplay with memory may have its stage.
The motifs and design principles are frequently reminiscent of theatrical stage sets, communicative spaces following different narratives and which are also produced when seen by the viewer. In this fictional architect's diary the characters inhabiting the settings are often distinguished by theatrical poses and their gestures and facial expressions suggest an existential aura conveying an image of a theatrum mundi, the world as a stage.
Daniel Pitin was featured in Prague Biennale 3 "Expanded Painting 2" in 2007, winning the Mattoni Prize and in 2009 he curated the Czech section of the Prague Biennale 4. In fall 2010 he will show in the exhibition "After the Fall" organized by Marc and Livia Straus for the Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art, NY.
