Lo stadio El Molinón (ufficialmente Estadio de El Molinón - Enrique Castro Quini) è uno stadio di calcio situato a Gijón, in Spagna.

Di proprietà della municipalità di Gijón, ospita le partite casalinghe dello Sporting Gijón. Il suo terreno è lungo 105 metri e largo 68 e può ospitare fino a 29.800 persone.

Storia
Non si conosce esattamente la data di costruzione dell'impianto, ma fonti certe riportano di una partita disputata allo stadio il 20 maggio 1908, fatto che lo renderebbe lo stadio più antico del calcio professionistico spagnolo.

Il nome dello stadio viene fatto derivare da un vecchio mulino idraulico, anticamente presente nell'area dove ora sorge l'impianto attuale. Nel 1915 lo Sporting Gijón iniziò ad usarlo come campo ufficiale. La prima partita di una competizione nazionale venne disputata il 22 aprile 1917 in Coppa del Re contro l'Arenas Club de Getxo.

Nel 1920 la finale di Coppa del Re tra  e  si disputò in questo impianto.

Il 20 novembre 1924 il club acquistò la proprietà dell'impianto, che fino ad allora aveva avuto in affitto. Nel 1931 la tribuna subì un incendio che la distrusse completamente e, vista la precaria situazione economica dello di Sporting Gijón e dei costi di ricostruzione, lo Sporting restituì la proprietà dell'impianto al comune nel 1944.

Nel dicembre del 1968 fu introdotta l'illuminazione artificiale, indispensabile per le partite giocate di sera. La prima partita giocata con l'illuminazione artificiale fu tra lo Sporting Gijón e il Valencia Club de Fútbol Mestalla. Nel 1969 iniziarono i lavori per coprire lo stadio, opera che consentì all'impianto di diventare il primo campo di calcio in Spagna completamente coperto.

È stato scelto dalla FIFA come uno degli stadi per il Mondiale 1982, evento per il quale ha subito diversi interventi di ristrutturazione nel 1981. Insieme al Carlos Tartiere di Oviedo, ha quindi ospitato le partite del gruppo B del . In particolare, si sono giocate qui tutte le gare del primo turno dei futuri vice-campioni della Germania Ovest, compresa quella molto contestata contro l'Austria, che è passata alla storia come Patto di non belligeranza di Gijón.

Tra il 1997 e il 1998 sono stati effettuati dei lavori di adeguamento per rispettare le norme di sicurezza per gli stadi di calcio professionistico introdotte dalla UEFA e dalla FIFA, che hanno diminuito la capacità dell'impianto da  spettatori a . Nel 2008 la capacità è stata temporaneamente ridotta a  spettatori, per questioni di sicurezza e visibilità.

L'impianto rientra attualmente nella Categoria 3 UEFA, e può al momento ospitare  spettatori. Dal 2018 ha assunto il nome ufficiale di Estadio de El Molinón - Enrique Castro Quini, in onore dell'omonimo ex giocatore dello Sporting, deceduto in un incidente stradale.

MIT Media Lab has partnered with designer Yves Béhar on a smart furniture system for micro apartments, which can turn the space into a bedroom or living room at the touch of a button (+ movie).
The Ori system operates a compact module that incorporates a bed and a closet on one side, and a home office and an entertainment suite on the other.
The full-height unit can shift forward and backwards to free up space on either side. When needed, a bed slides out from underneath the storage space, while a bench emerges from below the TV.
Researchers from MIT's CityHome project developed the actuators, electronics and software that enable the heavy furniture to glide and shape-shift, as well as connect to other smart devices.
Béhar and his San Francisco studio Fuseproject came on board to create a single furniture unit that could transform to make the most of small spaces. The final design can be ordered in custom materials, finishes and colours.
The system is designed for micro apartments with less than 300 square feet (28 square metres) of space, as rent in cities continues to rise and living spaces become more compact.
Demonstrating the issue, an illustrator built a tiny wooden bedroom for himself in a friend's living room to avoid paying San Francisco's "absurdly high" rents.
"Cities such as London, Seattle, San Francisco and almost everywhere else are seeing an influx of young professionals, yet those urban centres are more expensive and more condensed," said Béhar.
Located on the side of the furniture module is a pyramid-shaped control panel, which features buttons for altering the layout and lighting.
Touching its vertical edges moves the unit forward and back, while presets for bedroom, lounge or storage can be activated using icons along the bottom.
Users can also adjust the settings with a smartphone app, so the room will be set up in their preferred layout when they get home.
Béhar said the furniture would add value to tiny homes.
"Beyond the comfort and life-enhancing varied accommodations, Ori creates financial value for renters or owners; a studio becomes a one bedroom, for example," Béhar said. "The Ori system is also valuable for developers by immediately increasing the value of the home."
Fuseproject also came up with the name of the system and company, based on the Japanese word origami meaning "to fold".
Developers will be incorporating Ori systems into homes in Boston, Washington DC and Seattle starting this summer.
Designers have recently proposed a variety of solutions for compact living, which range from manually reconfigurable furniture to a space-efficient "living cube" that combines a sleeping area and storage.
The team behind Yo! Sushi and Yotel has also just unveiled "intuitive" apartments that will feature moving surfaces and foldaway furniture.

This Honeywell Wireless Keypad for Lynx Quickconnect, Vista, or Safewatch can be added to your Wireless Honeywell System. If you want to hear a chime sound, see a visual display, or have another place to be able to arm/disarm the system, this is the keypad you need.
If you have a Lynx or Quick Connect system, this is one of the only options you have for a second keypad. You can get this one or the version with voice.
If you have a Vista or Safewatch system this may work with your system but you do need to have a wireless receiver that is compatible. If you don't have a bi-directions wireless receiver it won't work. Also, if you have a Vista or Safewatch system, you can also add a wired keypad.
When there's no ac adapter, this keypad goes to sleep to conserve power. When it's in the sleep state, it won't chime when something opens a door or window.
This keypad is also very easy to install, but you must be able to enter programming mode in order to add it (The house ID needs to be enabled).
You can mount it on the wall or on the tabletop. We recommend that you add the deskmount kit either way so that it will always have power. It doesn't need the plug in adapter that comes with the deskmount kit since it comes with three AA batteries. But the "always on" operation is usually best.
If you have an ADT Pulse System you may be able to add one of the ADT Pulse Keypads.

The Galaxy's Soundtrack
IN THE LOOP: Our hero Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) is the creator of the Awesome Mix Tape Vol. 1, which serves as Guardians Of The Galaxy's soundtrack.PHOTOS: WALT DISNEY STUDIOS MOTION PICTURES, HOLLYWOOD RECORDS, BLUE SWEDE, 10CC, THE RUNAWAYS, THE STAIRSTEPS, RUPERT HOLMES
Guardians Of The Galaxy: Awesome Mix Vol. 1 just might be the coolest soundtrack you'll hear all year!
Jason Francis Johnson
Music plays a huge part in science fiction movies.
Take, for instance, John Williams' genius Star Wars scores. How about the inspired kitsch of Queen's Flash Gordon Original Soundtrack?
Then there's Vangelis' shimmering synthesiser work on Blade Runner.
Stanley Kubrick's hand-picked classical pieces for 2001: A Space Odyssey?
Let's not forget Daft Punk's throbbing Tron: Legacy score or the sensitive work Arcade Fire did on Her.We could go on and on, but we're here to talk about Guardians Of The Galaxy: Awesome Mix Vol. 1.
It's a bit different from your typical sci-fi soundtrack, in that it uses a lot of songs from the 70s. Not very spacey, but it makes a lot of sense within the context of the movie.
Our hero Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) is an earthling who keeps his own Awesome Mix Tape Vol. 1 playing (on a constant loop) in his old-school portable cassette player.
It's his magical musical memento of home.
The music Quill - aka Star-Lord - plays on his headphones is the same music we hear in the movie.
Let's break down the awesomeness!
Blue Swede
This is the tune that's most closely associated with Guardians at this point, as it is used in the trailers.
The song bounced around with a few different artists before Blue Swede finally took this version to the top of the US charts in 1974.
Before Guardians, it was mostly associated with Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs, which is proof enough of its cool cred.
But if you're a masochist, check out the cover by Baywatch star David Hasselhoff!
This is not a song you'd expect to hear in a space flick.
This lush tune hit the top of the UK charts in 1975, and hit No. 2 in the US.
Its trademark "virtual choir" was painstakingly created using analogue technology, and no one had ever heard anything like it at the time.
Everyone from Donny Osmond to Queen Latifah has covered the tune, and it also appeared on the soundtrack of Bridget Jones: The Edge Of Reason.
If any song captures the sheer bad-ass attitude of the Guardians, it's Cherry Bomb.
This anthem of rebellion from the ill-fated 70s girl group The Runaways is a thumb in the eye of any would-be oppressor - even Ronan The Accuser!
Cherry Bomb reached No. 1 in Japan, and came in 52nd place on VH1's list of Greatest Hard Rock Songs. Dakota Fanning does a killer version in The Runaways movie.
O-O-O-H CHILD
The Five Stairsteps
Without giving too much away, hopefully, we must tell you that 0-0-0-H Child plays a huge part in this flick.
Suffice it to say that after seeing Guardians Of The Galaxy, you'll never hear O-O-O-H Child the same way again.
In 1970, the song became a top 10 hit in the US, and placed 402nd in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs Of All Time.
It was also used in the film Boyz N The Hood. This is soft soul music at its sweetest, and Guardians may just give it a whole new life.
ESCAPE (THE PINA COLADA SONG)
This is surely one of the silliest songs ever created, a little ditty about a pair of lovers trying to find extracurricular relationships, and then finding each other by mistake.
Considering that Guardians Of The Galaxy is a comedy and a space adventure, Escape really helps set the tone.
The contrast between the exotic setting and the humdrum lyrics is delicious.
Fun Fact: This was the last No. 1 song of the 70s. It also has the distinction of being used in Shrek and Grown Ups.

IMPORTANCE OF ONLINE PRESENCE LOCKDOWN
IMPORTANCE OF ONLINE PRESENCE DURING LOCKDOWN
With people across the globe practicing social distancing — or in some cases, on a national lockdown — traditional media channels have taken a bit of a hit. Subsequently, there has been a huge spike in people spending time online — reading news and using social media platforms.
The team at social media tracking service, amaSocial, discusses the effects the national lockdown has had on the social media industry.
According to comScore, the number of minutes spent by readers on news sites has increased by 46% in the same period last year. And since people can't hang out with their friends in real life, they're connecting virtually — on every platform possible.
It's not only Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram seeing increased traffic — Zoom and Skype user numbers have skyrocketed since the global pandemic began.
What is most interesting about this perhaps, is to consider how these behavioural changes are likely to shape the future of our world. Undoubtedly, we'll see more businesses offering remote working opportunities, but we're also likely to see people utilising more online communication channels to stay in touch with their teams.
The most obvious reason for the rise in social usage is the fact that people are social creatures by nature. Whether you're an introvert or an extrovert, after a couple of days of self-isolation, you're likely to miss your friends or colleagues.
The gap that is left from the lack of social interaction with social communities is significant, and social media offers a way to fill this void. The global pandemic has left most people feeling anxious and looking for support amid the ongoing uncertainty — and as such, people need to feel connected more than ever before.
To stay connected, albeit virtually, video interaction is on the rise. In particular, the rise of traditionally social, external events being streamed online. From business conferences to DJ sets — you can stream just about anything today.
Social media has always been the place where people talk, but with people being isolated, it has become the only place people talk. Because of this, it is undoubtedly the most important channel for brands to focus on right now.
With people spending more time online, social platforms are the perfect place for brands to connect with their audiences. There has never been a better time to capitalise on building relationships with your audiences.
To do this, brands can:
Increase their social presence during the lockdown. People are desperate for new, fresh content — so give it to them!
Check in with your audiences without trying to make a sale. Focus on how they are feeling and show you really care.
Encourage engagement and respond to comments as soon as possible. Since audiences are online for longer than usual, it's a great opportunity to converse with them; but only if you respond quickly.
Optimise your content for SEO — find the right keywords and utilise them in your digital and social content for maximum exposure.

Quick, what's the iconic garment of 90s fashion? For me, it's the crop top — showing off miles of midriff above a pair of baggy, light wash jeans. Funny thing is, that outfit, which represents an entire decade of fashion, is completely impractical when winter pulls temperatures below 65.
It's exactly 9 degrees outside in Missouri today. And there's no way a crop top makes it into my rotation anytime soon.
But if you're really feeling the '90s vibe, you probably don't want to put things on hold for six months until the sun shines once more. And you don't have to! Because I'm taking the best trends from the '90s and winterizing them. Read on for four outfits to channel your inner Spice Girl even when it's cold outside.
As you can guess, layering is the key to staying warm in your '90s gear. It's tricky with '90s wear though, because the popular silhouettes either show off your natural shape or completely cover it up. A slip dress, for example, puts your whole bod on display. But then the oversized jeans and flannel shirt combo hides you behind a mound of plaid and denim.
As a general rule, balance is your goal. Pair the boxy, loose garments with those that hug a little tighter or reveal a little more. Now, let's get to the specifics.
When Kate Moss wore a sheer slip dress, she was surely in a temperature-controlled room. I'd likely get frostbite just walking to my car in a dress that flimsy.
To warm things up, pair your slip dress with a long, heavy blazer. The difference in texture between your light, airy dress and structured blazer makes for an interesting combo and a modern take on an old trend.
On "Friends," Rachel Green wore her tartan skater skirt with knee-high socks, but that just seems silly for anyone over the age of 12. Instead, go for a pair of black, fleece leggings and ankle booties. You can and should also wear a long-sleeve sweater over the top.
Thirty years ago, we called them overalls. Today you might prefer the phrase "denim jumper," as it sounds less like something a car mechanic wears.
Whatever the name, they're classically cute with t-shirts. You could add a bomber over the top, but I also like overalls paired with a thick cowl-neck sweater. Choose a sweater that's more fitted than bulky and wear it underneath your jumper.
Jeans in the '90s were either high-waisted and kind of shapeless, or they were hip-hugging flares. Flares are easy to winterize: tuck in the long-sleeved shirt of your choice and add a blazer.
The baggy jean is more of a challenge because it lacks structure. There's a reason everyone wore their jeans with crop tops after all. Mimic the crop top silhouette with a long-sleeve bodysuit that hugs your upper half. You can also add a calf-length blazer, which puts visual bookends on those roomy pants.
And that's how you do '90s fashion in the winter!

News | Artists who love trees - The Arborealists meet David Rolt at our new exhibition. Now online!
Artists who love trees, a new exhibition curated by Robert Eagle that was due to open at Burgh House, Hampstead in the summer, had to be transferred online. Please take a look at our video and catalogue featuring the artists and their work.
We are belatedly becoming aware just how valuable trees are, not only to our enjoyment of life but to our very survival. This exhibition features the work of contemporary artists whose work is inspired by love, fascination and need for trees. They call themselves The Arborealists. Their styles are as diverse as the mighty flora they celebrate, and in this exhibition their paintings will hang next to work by an earlier, mid-20th century painter, David Rolt, who is now being hailed as a "proto-Arborealist". The contemporary Arborealists include Michael Porter, Philippa Beale, Stella Carr, Nahem Shoa, Fiona McIntyre, Tim Craven and Jacqueline Wedlake Hatton.

Who are The Arborealists? by their founder, Tim Craven
The Arborealists are a loose association of some 60 professional artists of diverse art practice who share the subject of the tree. There are no rules and no subscription. The group is far flung. with members from the Welsh borders and the Cotswolds to East Anglia and London and every southern county from Kent to Cornwall. Outposts include Yorkshire, France and Ireland. The group enjoys an international profile and have already staged twenty exhibitions to acclaim in the UK and France with many more planned for the future, including site-specific projects. The group has also produced four illustrated publications to compliment the exhibitions to date. The Arborealists have worked in partnership with various environmental organisations including Exmoor and Dartmoor National Park Authorities, The National Trust and The Woodland Trust.
Although united by their subject, they employ a wide range of working practices: scale, medium, philosophy, style and technique. The results are by turn dramatic and contemplative, expressive, abstracted, hyperreal and Surreal. They demonstrate that trees still have a great relevance in contemporary art and retain their power to move us as a vital element in our landscape. Trees are a potent symbol of our threatened, fragile environment and are now at the top of the world's political agenda – indeed, they have never been more important to the human race.
The Golden Age, by Nahem Shoa
Trees provide a wonderfully versatile subject for artists, not only in terms of the rich variety of form, texture and colour they provide, whether individually or collectively, but also through the wealth of association - myth, folklore, religious and symbolic significance, that they have come to embody over many centuries. In Britain, trees as a subject have inspired artists from Gainsborough and Constable through to the Pre-Raphaelites, the Neo-Romantics and the Ruralists. Piet Mondrian and Victor Pasmore used the tree as a device to turn abstract and Paul Nash famously stated that he loved and worshipped trees and believed they were people.
I will hold you in the heat, by Stella Carr
David Rolt - proto-Arborealist
David Rolt led a double life. For a living he painted portraits of the rich and famous. But his secret love was conducted outdoors, painting trees.
English elms, Irish oaks, gnarled olive trees in Italy and scented pines in the south of France, he painted their portraits wherever he found them. For Rolt trees could express as much emotion and spirituality as any human subject. He found it easier to sympathise with a beautiful tree than with many of the celebrities whose portraits he was commissioned to paint.

David Rolt was born in Yorkshire in 1916. A forceps delivery damaged his skull and left him with lifelong disability in his right arm and one of his legs. Despite these handicaps, his artistic talent thrived and secured him a place at the Slade School of Fine Art. From the early 1940s his portraits and treescapes – characterized by their bold line and use of colour - were being shown at the Royal Academy and New English Art Club. His work caught the eye of the leading London gallerist Sir Jack Baer, who staged five exhibitions Rolt's work at the Hazlitt gallery, which were followed by exhibitions in New York, Cape Town and Istanbul.
The success of these shows brought Rolt many commissions, making him a sought-after portrait painter during the post-War years. His subjects came from stage and screen, politics, business and high society. A close friend was film star Valerie Hobson whom he painted many times. But trees were the subject he constantly returned to. His landscape paintings, which typically feature windswept trees or rocky shores reflect the wildly fluctuating emotional climate of the artist's life, often sun-drenched, but sometimes wintry-bleak.

When he was in France the sandy pine trees of Cap Ferrat were a favourite subject. In England the great elm trees near his homes in Berkshire and Oxfordshire would become a regular subject when Dutch elm disease threatened their existence.David Rolt died in 1985; a memorial exhibition was held in London the following year. The paintings featured in this exhibition are from the artist's estate and studio collection.

"Science is a way of trying not to fool yourself. The first principle is that you must not fool yourself, and you are the easiest person to fool."
The majority of my time on this blog has been spent presenting the inner workings of the scientific process: How the research world turns, why it works, how progress is measured, etc. I've been relentless in my self-appointed mission to convey to you that, in a nutshell, science is hard to do, and easy to get wrong. It can be humbling, ego-bruising work to question everything you think you know on a regular basis, and putting your most cherished hypotheses out into the world, inviting fellow scientists to deconstruct, challenge, or ignore them, is certainly not for the squeamish. Yet this is how the process works, and, in fact, what makes it so singularly successful. Sound theories withstand challenges and, over time, become accepted. Poorly conceived or incorrect ideas ultimately don't stand up to scrutiny, but sometimes it can take years, even decades before this acceptance/rejection is complete. Much of this has to do with the pace and rigor of science, as I've discussed at length, but there is a human element to the process as well. The quality of the data is important, of course, and understanding and interpretation of the results is no less vital to good science.
Whatever our connection to this community, be it personal, professional or both, we denizens of this corner of cyberspace have a vested interest in the science of Usher syndrome, and thus should support every effort to make sure that the basic and clinical research in this field is of the highest quality. From a professional standpoint, peer-review and other processes are used to 'vet' new findings. However, from the perspective of Usher families outside the realm of science, these verification processes might sometimes be difficult or overwhelming to make sense of. If this describes you, you're not alone. Not only are there many families coping with Usher syndrome who may feel this way, but other families, coping with a variety of different childhood diseases face the same challenges in terms of wading through a sea of information in an attempt to make the most informed treatment decisions for their children.
As if it weren't daunting enough to try to synthesize the high quality data pertinent to these decisions, the situation becomes even more complicated by the abundance of false or misleading information available in the internet age. There is, regrettably, a great deal of pseudoscience afoot in the medical field. I don't know of any offhand that particularly targets Usher patients, but it occurs to me that families desperate for something-anything-that might slow the progress of a degenerative condition for which there is no cure could be at risk of being misled by bad science.
As a (hopefully) preventive defense against this, I thought it might be useful to write a few posts about good science, bad science, and how to tell the difference. Some of the treatments I'll discuss in the future will be specific to Usher syndrome, e.g. Vitamin A or DHA. Others will be more generalized, and selected for their usefulness as an example of either good or bad science. Some such treatments will take more rigor and investigation to pick apart, but as it's a holiday week, I thought we'd start off with something relatively easy to process, and I'll start with a topic in the 'bad science' category.
The subject of the video below is homeopathy-specifically, the 'science' of homeopathy. This is a shining example of 'bad science' because, well, there just isn't any good science involved in homeopathy. For homeopathy to work as its proponents claim, everything we know about physics and chemistry would have to be completely wrong. There are centuries of rigorously obtained scientific data supporting our current views of chemistry and physics, and no evidence to either support homeopathy as a biologically active treatment, nor to explain the mechanism by which it is purported to work. Ergo, it is far more likely that our understanding of chemical and physical principles is sound, and that homeopathy is, however successfully marketed, nonsense.
Oh....my. Where to begin? Well, from the outset Dr. Werner invites us to remember our physics and chemistry, so indeed, let's delve into the old memory banks and see what we can come up with. She leaps right out there with Einstein's E=mc2-the big gun-but, oh, wait, what?
[Einstein] gave us the theory that energy equals mass times the speed of light. E=mc2. OK. If we take that formula, and we think that there's a lot of mass, right? OK. If you collapse all the mass down into the universe, so that there is no space between the mass, do you know how much mass there is in the entire universe? You think you're a lot of mass, right? Well, the whole universal mass can be consolidated down into the size of a bowling ball. That's all there is in the whole universe. So, how much mass are you? That's right, an infinitesimal amount.
So if you take that formula, E=mc2, you can almost cross out mass. So the formula ends up being "energy = the speeed of light."
And that's why the vision system is so important, because we have lots of photoreceptors that receive light.
Stephen [Hawking] gave us the string theory. And what he discovered is that there are other "energetic particles" in the universe, and they're shaped like little 'U'ies, and what they do is they work by vibration. So our body is so wonderfully designed. We have light receivers, and we have ears. Vibratory--they pick up vibration. So if we added to that theory--Einstein's theory of relativity, E=mc2, but mass is crossed out--and strings, vibration. But that still doesn't tell us the whole picture, because what is a cell?
You can break down the cells into tiny pieces of energy called electrons, protons, neutrons, right? So the whole body has an infinitesimal amount of mass, but what is the remainder? Energy. So, I am energy; you are energy.
OK, so what is homeopathy? If nothing is really mass or an infinitesimal amount of it, and everything is energy, that means everything has a vibration to it. So what if I could encase some sort of energy for later use? So if I wanted to make a bomb and I took all these chemicals and I encased it in a bomb, and tonight my neighbor let his dog poop in my yard literally, and I'm mad at that dog and my neighbor. I'm going to take this bomb and I'm going to get back at him. And I threw that bomb at his house, would he be happy about it? Because what happens now when that energy is released? It destroys something. It changes it, it changes its energetic state. Well, that's what we can do with homeopathy. We take substances. And we put them in solution and we succuss it just like a bomb, we threw the bomb, to release its energy into this liquid. And then we take these little white pellets. We sprinkle them with that solution, and guess what we have just made? An energetic substance to be used when we choose to use it. So, how homeopathy works is, whatever your disease process is, it's an energetic change. And if I can find the remedy that matches your state and give it to you when we so choose, what can we do with your energy system? Transform it to a previous better state. That's how it works.
and by 'zenith' I mean a dense, murky thicket of pseudoscientific babble that I cannot hope to penetrate. Aside from the frightening overreaction to canine indiscretions in her yard, I think what Dr Werner is trying to explain is that the theory of homeopathy posits that an infinitesimal amount of a substance, when diluted in a prescribed way, becomes powerful in the same way that the relatively small mass of bomb components become powerful when assembled and detonated. And therein lies the problem. Dr. Werner did not specifically discuss any principles of Chemistry during her talk, but I know she must have taken a few semesters of Chem courses at some point in her training. I wonder if she remembers Avogadro's number? Avogadro's number, 6.02 x 10^23, is defined as the number of molecules (or atoms) of a particular substance required to equal, in grams, the atomic/molecular mass of each individual atom/molecule. For example, it would take 6.02 x 1023 atoms of Carbon (which has an atomic mass of 12) to equal 12 grams of Carbon. The converse is also true: If you separated 12 grams of Carbon into 6.02 x 1023 equal parts, each part would consist of one Carbon atom. However, although Avogadro's number is a very large one, it is dwarfed by the dilutions used in most homeopathic preparations. At some point in the video (and honestly, I can't bring myself to watch it again) Dr. Werner mentions a remedy of "30C", which basically means that she diluted something with a starting concentration of 1 part 'ingredient' to 100 parts water (hence the Roman numeral C) thirty times. This would result in a final dilution of 10-60 and yes, that's a decimal point in front of 60 zeros. I hope you can see that this is significantly more dilute than what would be required to reduce the original substance down to a single molecule, even if you started with a massive pile of 6.02 x 1023 molecules.
In other words, dilution to that extent would leave no trace of the original ingredient, whatever it was. Thus, even without addressing the relevance or efficacy of these remedies on any given disease, we can discount them, because they don't actually contain even one molecule of anything but water.
Practitioners of homeopathy contend that the method of this reduction (which involves vigorous shaking, or 'succussion' between every dilution), gives their concoctions more potency; hence the 'bomb your way to better health' analogy. There are stories of early practitioners of homeopathy being warned against having their remedies jostle around as they traveled by horseback or wagon, as this extra shaking could inadvertently strengthen the solution to a dangerous degree. Again, absent any evidence of the reality of this increased potency, or a working definition of the 'energy states' that, Dr. Werner and other homeopaths claim, are altered by ingesting a homeopathic remedy, the whole practice falls far short of the minimum burden of proof for any conventional medical treatment.
The bottom line is that homeopathy, by any scientific measure, is bunk, yet it shows no signs of departing from the battery of 'alternatives' to science-based medicine available in most industrialized nations. The reasons for this are complex, but certainly one confounding factor is that people with legitimate medical training, such as Dr. Werner, fully accept such methods as real treatment and present it as such to their patients. Still others, while not alternative medicine practitioners themselves, remain neutral on the subject, often dismissing it as harmless or citing anecdotal success stories as evidence that there must be some grain of truth to the claims.
This concerns me, because, after all my discussions here about the rigors of science and the many complexities involved in studying a disease like Usher syndrome, it should be clear that no one can be an expert in every aspect of this field. At some point, we have to accept the validity of other people's scientific or medical claims, or else we'd be mired in redundant experiments to confirm every other finding of every other scientist/clinician, which would be a tremendous waste of resources. Similarly, although patients today are certainly encouraged to be knowledgeable of and participate in their own treatments, we usually defer to the expert medical opinions of our physicians. After all, they've had twelve years and thousands of hours of training for the express purpose of learning everything possible about their particular branch of medicine. So, how does one strike a balance between appropriately deferring to legitimate expertise and avoiding being taken in by charlatans or well-meaning people operating outside their areas of expertise? How can we be sure that what we're being told is valid, especially with respect to medical treatments? I'm genuinely interested to hear readers' opinions on this, as I know that families dealing with a progressive disease with no available treatments are in a unique position to evaluate the balance of trust and skepticism needed to navigate the medical system.
This balance becomes particularly important when we consider that any future treatments for Usher syndrome will be 'new'. Obviously they will have had to go through the succession of clinical trials required to gain approval as a treatment, but there won't be millions of supportive data points right out of the gate. In lieu of these, we'll have to look at the science behind the treatment and make a judgment call on whether it's 'good' or 'bad'. I realize that perhaps I had a bit too much fun tearing into Dr. Werner in this post, but I sincerely hope that the future discussions of what constitutes 'good' science will be helpful to our readers in making treatment decisions when the time comes-and I do believe this time will come.
Meanwhile, stay healthy, and I hope you had a wonderful holiday.


Spain's third largest city continues to be somewhat of a secret which is really surprising considering what this beautiful city has to offer.
With its stunning old town, large green areas within the city, the amazing Calatrava-designed City of Arts and Sciences, lots of little shops, restaurant and cafés and not to forget the nearby white sandy beaches along with nearly guaranteed perfect weather from May through to early October, Valencia is the perfect destination for a short (or longer) trip.
Here are some suggestions what you should not miss in the city.
The beautiful old town with a network of narrow streets and its two main squares, Plaza de la Reina in the north and Plaza del Ayuntamiento in the south, lots of little shops, cafés and restaurants is perfect to simply stroll around and every now and then sit down on one of its many little squares to sip a coffee or glass of wine.
One of the city's most iconic monuments, the impressive Torres de Serranos, constructed in 1392, is one of the twelve gates that in the past formed part of the city wall.
Located in Valencia's El Carmen neighbourhood between Plaza de la Reina and Plaza del Virgen, the imposing Basilica of the Assumpion of Our Lade of Valencia, also simply referred to as Saint Mary's Cathedral, built in the 13th century, it the city's largest Roman church. The site where it stands has an even longer history. In fact, today's cathedral was initially a Roman-Visgoth Temple and later during the Moorish occupation of the city, it was converted into a Mosque. Today, you can still see some pieces of the original temple including a crypt chapel dating back to the 6th century.
The large fountain in the middle of Plaza del Virgen was built by local sculptor Silvestre Edeta and represents the city's Turia River and its seven irrigation ditches.
Just off Plaza de la Reina sits the gorgeous Torre de Santa Catalina. Originally built in 1245 the tower was constantly remodelled in the following centuries and today spots a mixture of styles.
The old silk exchange La Lonja was built in the 15th century and today is one of Europe's best examples of Gothic architecture. It is also a World Heritage site.
Originally built in 1368, Iglesia Los Santos Juanes, just opposite La Lonja is another of Valencia's historic churches built on the remnants of a former mosque. The original Gothic building burned down almost completely in 1592 and was later rebuilt in Baroque style. The main facade still features a walled up oculus of a rose window from the historic church.
Plaza del Ayuntamineto is lined by stunning palaces, including the Corresos y Telegrafos (the post and telegraph building).
There is something I will invariably do in every city I visit: go to the local market. Mercado Central in Valencia is a food lover heaven with more than one thousand stalls selling the best local produce. The art nouveau building, which dates back to the 1920s, is indeed home of one of the largest food halls in Europe.
Interested in the most recent scientific discoveries? Head to the Science Museum with lots of interactive exhibitions that change every two months.
Want to see some intriguing maritime life? The Oceanographic is Europe's largest aquarium with more than 45,000 species.
Also within the complex is an IMAX cinema, planetarium and an opera house.
Aside from the expositions and maritime species that call the complex their home, the beautifully sculptured sleek white complex itself, designed by star architects Santiago Calatrava and Felix Candela, is worth spending time and exploring.
Fun fact: The complex is features as one of the twelve treasures of Spain.
As much as I love wildlife encounters, I am not a huge fan of zoos which by definition mean animals will be kept in confined areas. That said, over recent decades there has been huge change and most now put a high focus on providing the best and most nature-like conditions (albeit it will clearly never match the conditions in nature).
However, having seen some intriguing images, I decided to explore Valencia's Biopark. It's main intention is to provide the animals conditions that are as natural a habitat as possible. One can explore the ecosystems of the savannah, the forests of Madagascar and equatorial Africa, while admiring the impressive silverback gorillas alongside leopards, lions, rhinos, hippos and the adorable meerkats.
Speaking of nature, Turia Gardens were built after the Turia river was diverted in the 1950s following a severe flooding. The then dried land became a beautiful park that stretches the whole length (about nine kilometres) from Bioparc to the City of Arts and Sciences. During the summer months, it also hosts many events like concerts and outdoor movies in the evenings.
Valencia is the birthplace of the famous Spanish paella. So there is no excuse not to eat the real thing at least once while you are there. If you wonder what I mean with 'the real thing' you will quickly find out in the city: differently to the mainstream perception a true paella recipe includes seafood and chorizo, the original one instead is served with chicken, rabbit and green beans.
Another must is to drink horchata, a traditional cold drink made from tiger nuts, sugar and crushed ice. You won't have trouble to find it as it is served everywhere. However, make a point to go to Horchateria Santa Catalina (directly opposite of the Iglesia de Santa Catalina), said to make the best in town.
Not to be missed is the roughly three kilometre stretch of Malvarrosa beach to the east of the old town. There's also a broad boardwalk and lots of typical beach shops, cafés and restaurants.
Have you been to Valencia yet? Let me know about your experience.

The Crash of Independence 08
Sometimes, a 99.96% success rate isn't good enough. That's how often the Air Force's MC-12W Liberty spy planes arrive overhead when needed by U.S. troops on the ground in Afghanistan.
The twin-turboprop planes are modified versions of the Hawker Beechcraft Super King Air 350. Their crew of four includes a pair of pilots and a pair of backseat sensor operators, who funnel video to ground-pounders down below. The fleet has played a key role in the killing or capture of more than 700 high-value insurgents in Afghanistan over the past four years, the Air Force says.
You might think that a mission aboard an unarmed propeller-driven plane, flying lazy orbits and trying to locate and video troublemakers far below, is a relatively simple task in skies filled with bomb-laden jet fighters and missile-firing helicopters. But you would be wrong.

Q: Complex manifolds vs Riemann domains In Hörmander's text an "Introduction to Several Complex Variables," he gives the following definition for a Riemann domain on page 139:
A complex manifold $\Omega$ of dimension $n$ is called a Riemann domain if analytic functions separate points on $\Omega$ and there is an analytic map
\begin{equation*}
 \varphi : \Omega \to \mathbb{C}^n
\end{equation*}
which is everywhere regular, that is, locally an isomorphism.
Edit: many authors drop the word analytic and only say $\varphi$ need be a local homeomorphism.
I understand the condition concerning separating points but what I don't understand is why this second condition ($\varphi$ locally an isomorphism) is needed on top of the usual complex manifold definition. Why can we not just patch together the homeomorphisms given from the definition of a complex manifold using a partition of unity and take that as our $\varphi$? In other words, what are we trying to convey that doesn't come from the usual definition of a complex manifold?
In a similar vein, for a Riemann surface, why is such a condition not necessary? We merely define them as one-dimensional complex manifolds without stating that there need exist such a $\varphi$.

Q: jQuery - Select last element of a group with the same ID I have a form/table that is dynamically altered via JS by adding/removing rows (form inputs). I want to create a column that counts the number of rows, so I tried using,
$("#rowcount:last").replaceWith( "" + newNum + "	" );

to change the counter columns last element to the new number, but the ':last' selector doesn't seem to work in this case. Here is my code for reference (sorry for the ugliness of my form. I tried to make it look as pretty as I could, but because of my limited experience, it still looks like it was slapped on the wrong side at birth):

<title></title>

<form method="post" action="<?php echo htmlentities($PHP_SELF); ?>">

# (last four digits)
Amount
Approval
Date Received

     1
     <input id="cnum" type="text" name="cc_num[]" maxlength="4" />
     <input id="camnt" type="int" name="cc_amnt[]" />
     <input id="appr" type="text" name="cc_app[]" maxlength="10" />
     <input id="date" type="text" name="cc_date[]" />

    <input type="button" id="btnAdd" value="Add" />
    <input type="button" id="btnDel" value="Remove" />

<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit" />
</form>

A: You can use the :last selector:
 var newElem = $('.ccinput:last').clone().attr('id', 'input' + newNum);
 $('.ccinput:last').after(newElem);
 $(".ccinput:last td:first").replaceWith( "" + newNum + "	" );

or instead of replaceWith() you can try:
 $(".ccinput:last td:first").html(newNum).removeAttr('id');

DEMO

A: Not enough rep to comment, but this really should be a reply to your comment thread...
Your HTML "seems to run fine" except that you can only get the first element with a given ID because it's not running fine and is invalid HTML. In other words, your HTML does NOT run fine with duplicated IDs (because it's invalid HTML).
Instead of giving a row an ID and duplicating it, give it a class. That way your HTML will actually run fine (pending changes to your JavaScript to select by class instead of ID).

Uganda renews fight to eliminate malaria by 2030

Uganda says it is fast-tracking efforts to eliminate malaria, which continues to take lives and bleed the country's economy more than any other disease.
The disease is responsible for 30 to 40 percent of outpatient hospital visits, 15 to 20 percent of admissions, and 10 percent of inpatient deaths, mostly pregnant mothers and children, according to the health ministry figures.
The mosquito-transmitted disease remains a serious health problem that continues to stagnate economic growth and social development as man-hours are lost because of absenteeism and the meagre household incomes spent on treatment.
To reverse this trend, the East African country is fighting at different fronts against the disease.
The country on September 2 launched the board of directors of the Malaria Free Uganda Fund as part of its continued investment to eliminate the disease by 2030, as per the global target.
Malaria Free Uganda Fund is a nonprofit public-private partnership established to mainstream responsibility for malaria across all sectors and help remove financial and operational bottlenecks in fighting the disease.
The National Malaria Control Program currently faces a three-year 206 U.S. million dollars budget gap, or 33 percent of the total, according to the ministry of health.
External donors, according to the ministry, fund over 95 percent of the fight against the disease in the country. The country is now looking at domestic resourcing in view of the global uncertainties like the COVID-19 pandemic that is affecting foreign financing.
"The talent and experience we have mobilized to this board from the private and civil society will help the government achieve a significant reduction of malaria cases and deaths in Uganda," said Ruth Aceng, minister of health while launching the board here.
The ministry late last month launched the use of larvicides in the fight against malaria. Larvicides, according to the ministry are microbial or chemical insecticides put in water bodies or water containers that breed mosquitoes.
"The exercise helps reduce the adult population of mosquitoes by killing the aquatic immature forms, so that fewer will develop into adults," said Alfred Mubanginzi, assistant commissioner in charge of Vector Control division.
"This should reduce the number of mosquitoes that bite and infect humans with malaria," he said at the launch on August 27 in the northern Ugandan district of Lira.
In June, the country launched the distribution of 27 million long-lasting insecticide-treated mosquito nets to districts across the country, under the third universal coverage campaign.
The countrywide campaign that was meant to kick off in April was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic in the East African country.
Under the free mosquito net distribution, the ministry targets to have all citizens sleep under a mosquito net every night to prevent malaria.
The ministry believes that these strategies among others including the use of indoor residual spraying will yield good results.
"These combined interventions will go a long way in fighting and eventually eliminating malaria from our country," said Aceng.
Indeed the country is making notable progress in the fight against the disease. According to the 2018/19 Malaria Indicator Survey, the disease prevalence rate dropped to 9 percent from 19 percent.
The progress is attributed to the continuous distribution of mosquito nets, case management, and indoor residual spraying

Q: React child renders before parent I am making a WeatherApp for freecodecamp. I have made a parent class for getting the geolocation and then pass the value of coordinates to Fetch.js, the problem is when i run the program the console shows that Fetch is likely being executed first,
i.e, on the console , First the data shows an empty object for Fetch.js and then the console shows the geolocation i printed in Geolocation.js
Parent Class : Geolocation.js
import React from 'react';
import Fetch from './Fetch';

class GeoLocation extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state={
      lon : null,
      lat : null
    };
    this.showPosition = this.showPosition.bind(this);
  }
   componentDidMount(){
     if (navigator.geolocation) {
         navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(this.showPosition);
     } else {
          console.log("Geolocation is not supported by this browser.");
     }
   }
  showPosition(position) {
    this.setState({lon:position.coords.latitude,lat:position.coords.longitude})
    console.log(this.state);
   }
   render(){
     return (

       <Fetch lon={this.state.lon} lat={this.state.lat} />

     )
   }
}
export default GeoLocation;

Fetch.js :
import React from 'react';
import LocalWeather from './LocalWeather';
import Icon from './Icon';

class Fetch extends React.Component{
  constructor(props){
    super(props);
    this.state = {};
    this.selectHandler = this.selectHandler.bind(this);
    this.setStateAsync = this.setStateAsync.bind(this);
  }
  setStateAsync(){
    return new Promise((resolve)=>{
      this.setState(this.state,resolve)
    })
  }
  async componentDidMount(){
    console.log(this.props.lat);
    if(this.props.lat && this.props.lon){
      const res = await fetch(`https://fcc-weather-api.glitch.me/api/current?lat=${this.props.lat}&lon=${this.props.lon}`);
      const {data} = await res.json();
      const temp =  data.main['temp'] ;
      const icon = data.weather[0].icon ;
      await this.setStateAsync({temp:temp,icon:icon});
      console.log(data);
    }
    else {
      this.setStateAsync({temp:'',icon:''});
      console.log('nothing');
    }
  }
  selectHandler(temp){
    this.setState({temp:temp})
  }
  render(){
    return(

      <LocalWeather temp={this.state.temp} on_click={this.selectHandler} />
      <Icon src={this.state.icon ? this.state.icon : ''} />

    )
  }
}

export default Fetch;

A: You can conditionally render Fetch by checking if the coordinates are already in the state:

  { this.state.lon && this.state.lat && <Fetch lon={this.state.lon} lat={this.state.lat} /> }
