Full of politics, heart, and the sort of suspense that nobody in the world does better, The Mission Song turns John Le Carre's laser eye for the complexity of the modern world on turmoil and conspiracy in Africa.
Abandoned by both his Irish father and Congolese mother, Bruno Salvador has long looked for someone to guide his life. He has found it in Mr. Anderson of British Intelligence. Bruno's African upbringing, and fluency in numerous African languages, has made him a top interpreter in London, useful to businesses, hospitals, diplomats–and spies. Working for Anderson in a clandestine facility known as the "Chat Room," Salvo (as he's known) translates intercepted phone calls, bugged recordings, and snatched voice mail messages.
By turns thriller, love story, and comic allegory of our times, The Mission Song is a crowning achievement, recounting an interpreter's heroically naive journey out of the dark of Western hypocrisy and into the heart of lightness.

Starting the Curly Girl Method: So Far, So Good!
Have you considered starting the Curly Girl method of bringing your natural waves and curls to life? Read on for my experience!
I was blessed with a crazy thick mop of hair that is frequently out of control. If I want to do anything with it, I have to wrangle it into submission with a flat iron or a curling iron. Otherwise, it's all over the place — some is straight, some is straight-ish and there are inconsistent waves in weird places. Rarely does it all come together into one style without some work.
To make matters worse, I have been dying my hair since I was about 16. I've had it all shades of red, black, purple, blue, pink and one time, even tried blonde highlights. My favorite is black with purple about 2/3 of the way down.
My real color…I haven't seen it in so long, I'm not sure what it would be now, though I did start getting grey roots a few years back. Kinda early, in my opinion, but that's just one of the many things in life we don't get a say in. It used to be a dark brown auburn. I loved it but I loved experimenting with colors more. Now I'm paying the price, with dry hair that kind of just hangs there, sticking out some and not ever really looking "good" without a lot of work. Even then, it's frizzy and easily looks raggedy.
It's time for a change. I started researching deep conditioning, defrizzing products, you name it, and came upon the Curly Girl method in a lot of search results. After really reading about it more, or getting the Curly Girl: The Handbook book by Lorraine Massey , I decided to give it a shot.
Its basis is simple: stop putting harmful products on your hair, stop weighing it down and damaging it further with heat and encourage it to let your natural curl return with better treatment overall. That sounds pretty simple, right? Starting the Curly Girl method IS simple. I used a clarifying shampoo, then used an appropriate conditioner and let it air dry, scrunching it repeatedly, putting away my brushes to use only wide-tooth combs IF I can't detangle it with my fingers, and using a non-sulfate gel.
I'm on day three now. It's too early to tell how successful it will be with my hair type (2A to 2B, depending on the day and weather) but I've had two random comments on how my hair is wavier and flatter than normal. Flatter may not sound like a compliment, but for me, it is. My hair was so dry, it would stand up too much, poking out to the side and not laying against my neck or back. It isn't pretty.
My hair feels better, it's softer, it's more controlled AND it smells good. I will co-wash it tonight (washing without shampoo, using just a smidge of safe conditioner at my roots) and use my conditioner again, then use some gel to scrunch up the curls. I did forego the cut — it hasn't been long since I had a trim and one problem my hair does not have is split ends. It is barely growing anymore so I'm trying to avoid having shorter hair.
There are a lot of websites you can google to learn more about it, but here's a link to the book — it is an affiliate link, fyi, as are all the links to the products below — and it's also available via Kindle Unlimited, which is what I used.
The only thing I did wrong so far is that I didn't order a satin bonnet first. Mine will be here on Tuesday — I know my restless sleeping is hurting my hair and flattening the curls. Plan ahead!
I'll update with an after picture later. Here's my Day #3 photo — I'm overdue for new purple-ing, which I know will not help my hair but it's the one thing I'm not changing. I neglected a Day #1 photo, we were running crazy getting the son ready for his Homecoming dance last night, but suffice it to say it was raggedy, frizzy, wouldn't lay this flat and was lacking shine. Already, improvements!
Here are the products I purchased. I got them all on Amazon, and including the bonnet, I probably spent about $42. The products will last a while and I hope to not replace the bonnet for a long time.
The Suave Daily Clarifying Shampoo was inexpensive — there are a lot of options but I trust this product. The Tea Tree Tingle shampoo is available at Trader Joe's, where I happen to shop weekly, but I ordered it on Amazon to have it available the same day as the rest of the products without making an extra trip. (Lazy.) The MopTop Daily Conditioner smells SO good, I love this! And the Fruit of the Earth aloe vera gel? Seriously, I know it doesn't say hair gel on it but it works!
I've shared links to all of those products above in case you want to try them out for yourself. I didn't skimp on cost because I want my hair to look good, but none of these products cost a lot either, so it's a matter of personal preference as the book and the many websites that explain it all do offer options. You can buy bigger sizes of all of those, or multi-packs, but my recommendation is to buy the regular or smaller sizes that give you long enough to see if you like them but without committing a lot of money if you don't.
I'll update at the end of 30 days, but if I have a particularly fab day of curls or waves, I may share on social. My hair is so dry, I really don't expect immediate success but I do believe that in starting the Curly Girl method, I am making a change for the better!


There are two ways for public sector entities to enter into business relations at an international level. Such business relations can either take the form of foreign currency transactions with a foreign business partner or business or administrative operations performed abroad. In addition, public sector entities may present their financial statements in a foreign currency. The objective of this standard is to prescribe how public sector entities should account for foreign currency transactions and foreign operations in their financial statements and how to translate financial statements into a presentation currency. In particular it addresses general issues such as the exchange rates to be used and how the financial effects of changes in exchange rates should be accounted for in the financial statements.
Functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The primary economic environment of an entity is normally the one in which it primarily generates and expends cash.
Presentation currency is the currency in which the financial statements are presented.

Third Season of Netflix's "Bloodline" is a Sad, Stunning, and Satisfying Conclusion: Review
By Timothy McManus June 04, 2017
TV Review: Bloodline Season Three
It's no secret that Bloodline is one of my favorite shows. Created by Todd A. Kessler, Glenn Kessler, and Daniel Zelman, the Netflix drama's final season was released on May 27. One of the main reasons I recommend that everybody watch this terrific show is for its killer cast, including Kyle Chandler, Linda Cardellini, Norbert Leo Butz, and Sissy Spacek. I enjoyed season one, even if it was too long and used too many flash forwards (which were also used to similarly-annoying effect on the creators' earlier show, Damages). Season two, on the other hand, was the absolute best thing on all of television in 2016. Season three falls somewhere in the middle. While not as heart-stopping as season two, the new season serves as a satisfying conclusion for the series, an epilogue of sorts.
Bloodline is, in a lot of ways, a modern take on Crime & Punishment set in the Florida Keys. It's a sun-soaked neo-noir about people trying to justify the terrible things they do. It's dark both thematically and literally, as a lot of the new episodes take place at night. Several scenes have half of a character's face hidden in darkness, the other in light and I don't know if the series has ever produced a more effective image.
Like season two, this season wisely gets the crime procedural aspect of the show out of the way in the first couple episodes of the season. But season two then introduced new elements, new stories to tell. Perhaps because the writers knew season three would be the last, but they seem afraid to introduce anything new this season. The remaining episodes are largely cleanup and deal with the fallout from the previous episodes. It becomes repetitive. I blame this on Netflix prematurely canceling the series when the producers had already stated their intention for it to run five or six seasons. While it might have seemed like a good thing to give advance notice before canceling the series, in this case, it was actually a creative detriment.
I have reached the conclusion that Kyle Chandler is at his absolute best when acting opposite Jacinda Barrett, who plays John's wife, Diana. Speaking of Diana, she has a fascinating arc this season that happens entirely in the periphery of the show, kind of like Connie in The Godfather Part II. I wish we could have seen it play out onscreen. Also shortchanged are John's children, Janie and Ben, played by Taylor Rouviere and Brandon Larracuente. Larracuente was also in another Netflix show this year, the popular but poorly written 13 Reasons Why, although his character wasn't believable as a person and was at the center of the series' most obvious 'twist'. Janie and Ben were never a big part of Bloodline, but had the series continued they could have become interesting. Why do we never see their reaction to the events of episode 4? That made no sense to me.
This is probably the most Kevin-centric of the three seasons and Norbert Leo Butz finally gives the performance I've been waiting for him to give. It seems like it took a while for Butz to figure out how to modulate his theatrical performance style (don't forget he's a two-time Tony winner) for the small screen, but this season he's excellent. I hope he's remembered by the time Emmy nominations come out. I'm also glad Kevin's wife, Belle (played by another two-time Tony winner, Katie Finneran) finally gets some good material to work with.
Was Linda Cardellini working on another project? That is the only explanation I can think of for why Meg is in so little of this season. I can understand the impulse to conclude one of the siblings' story before the finale, but Meg's story never felt over to me. She tried running away from her family in season two and that didn't work, so why should we think it would work this time? One of my biggest complaints I have with the series is that it never addressed Meg's obvious alcoholism. One of the only scenes we see of her new life is of her getting drunk, so she clearly has not escaped the past as much as she says.
Finally, Sissy Spacek gets scenes worthy of her talents. She's so good, especially as we find out Sally Rayburn is not the woman we thought she was. Although, I would have liked a little more clarification about her past with Roy Gilbert and what prompted her to leave the day Sarah died. The scenes with John Leguizamo as Ozzy Delvecchio feel misplaced this season. You could probably take every single one of his scenes out and the story wouldn't be affected at all. And a late-in-the-season revelation about his character feels like it came in from an entirely different show. And was Beth on the earlier seasons? I don't remember her but she sure was in a lot of this season and it seemed like the audience was supposed to know who she was. I didn't even know her name until the last episode.
I've seen a lot of people complain that the pace of Bloodline is too slow. That's a dumb complaint. People who complain about the pace of movies and TV shows being too slow deserve to watch nothing but Fast & Furious and Transformers movies. Bloodline season three isn't perfect, but it's still better than most shows on today. It's funny that it's even on Netflix in the first place because it is not the type of show I'd recommend binge watching. It's too dark and heavy to take in all at once. I watched it one episode at a time, which is why this review is coming out over a week after the new season hit Netflix.
What did you think of Bloodline season three? Let me know in the comments!

The Ten Best TV Episodes of 2020
As I mentioned in my list of the ten best shows of 2020 , there was a lot of great TV this year. So, I've decided to list some of the best episodes of the year, to spotlight some shows that perhaps weren't strong enough overall to make the other list, but that had a really good episode. 10. "In the Belly of the Whale" ( Hunters episode one of season one, Prime Video) This show premiered back in February, which feels like a lifetime ago. But I liked it! It definitely won't be everyone's cup of tea, but you'd know whether or not it is by watching the 90-minute first episode, which is probably the high point of the series (it gets very twisty toward the end). Al Pacino is in it! 9. "Elizabeth, Margaret, and Larry" ( Curb Your Enthusiasm season ten episode eight, HBO) Curb Your Enthusiasm has done ten seasons in twenty years, and when the latest premiered, I thought it was stale and out-of-touch, a poor imitation of its former self. But the back

Another record-setting quarter for solar, explained in 3 stats
Another quarter down, another solar record set. According to the latest figures from GTM Research and the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), solar had its best second quarter in history. Below, I've selected three key stats that I think best help to explain their findings, and the state of solar overall.
SEIAQ2-2-TW.jpg
The United States installed 2,387 megawatts (MW) of solar capacity in the second quarter of 2017, bringing our total installed capacity to 47.1 gigawatts (GW). That's enough solar capacity to power 9.1 million American homes with clean energy.
You might be thinking: The fact that we've installed two GW per quarter for the last seven quarters doesn't actually sound that impressive. How much is a GW, actually?
Great question. Fortunately, the Department of Energy put together a helpful piece answering the question, "How much power is 1 gigawatt?" So using their figures, each quarter for the the last seven quarters, we've installed solar capacity equivalent to 9.2 million PV panels, 1,000 utility-scale wind turbines, or 200 million LED bulbs. Two GW seems a lot more impressive now, doesn't it?
Finally, while those numbers from last quarter and to date are impressive, we also know that we have a lot more work ahead of us to meet our full potential, and address climate change. Just by putting solar panels on existing rooftops, the National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) tells us that we could generate 40 percent of our total electricity needs. In 2016, solar made up just one percent of our electricity portfolio.
Not to mention, scientists tell us that in order to hit the targets laid out in the Paris Agreement — which gives us the best chance of avoiding the worst impacts of global warming—we need to almost completely slash carbon emissions by midcentury, at the latest. That means transitioning to 100 percent renewable energy, and solar needs to play a significant role in that.
According to SEIA's projections, we're expected to triple our solar capacity over the next five years, and by that time (2022), we'll be installing 16 GW annually. There's no denying that's a huge jump, but again, we need to accelerate that growth to get where we need to be. Not only that, but utility and fossil fuel lobbyists are attacking pro-solar policies across the country — and unfortunately, those attacks seem to be taking their toll.
We plan on both fighting back against those attacks, as well as fighting for even more ambitious solar commitments at the local, state and national level. Looking forward to more good news to report after quarter three!

Bill Belichick Press Conference
]()
BB: We are moving along on the preparations. Defensively this is a real challenge for us with the Raiders being one of the top red area teams in the league and also the number one team on the goal line. I think they are over 90 percent inside the five yard line, so it is just another example of the efficiency that they have shown on offense and they can really bring some power with, it's usually [Zack] Crockett, but also [Tyrone] Wheatley in the backfield. They have got some big guys that they can run behind [Jon] Ritchie and move the line of scrimmage. That's a real good phase of their game there and also on the defensive side of the ball, third down, they are one of the top third down defenses in the league and the very best in the third and like six to ten range kind of that intermediate third down range. They really do a good job there as well. So just a couple of areas that we want to devote a little extra attention to. When you play 16 games and you lead the league in those categories I think that says you are doing something pretty well over a long period of time. The injury report is clean. We will be outside today and be ready to go Saturday night.
Q: Does the decline in [Tom] Brady's play over the last five games concern you at all, two touchdown passes and five interceptions, does it concern you at all and if not why not?
BB: I think there are plenty of areas on offense that we could be more productive at and more efficient at, but when you are winning games and doing enough things to win and making the plays that you need to make to outscore the opponents that is really the bottom line. You would always like to throw fewer interceptions and have fewer fumbles and there is certainly always room for improvement. So those are some of the things that we have addressed in the last, the bye before the Carolina week and even a little bit of the extra time this week to try to improve our overall execution and efficiency on offense, including the quarterback position.
Q: Tom had a great beginning this year, he played some great football, but do you think he has hit any kind of a wall himself in his first year as a starter?
BB: I think maybe that might have been true a month ago, but the last couple of weeks I think that the team has been re-energized a little bit and I don't think that's, no more than anybody else, no. No more than the coaching staff.
Q: There is a lot of hype about home field advantage, the weather, the snow, where do you assess that when you plan for a game?
BB: I think the weather, as we talked about yesterday, I don't think that's that big of a deal. I mean Oakland has guys from Poland playing so I am sure that they know what the cold weather is about. When you are playing at home you are in a regular routine even though we try to make our road routine as close to our home routine as possible and you are a little more familiar with the surroundings, but other than that you still have to go out there and play football. I think the biggest thing, whether you are at home or away, is just the communication factor. When you are on the road you have communication on offense and in some kicking situations like the punt team where you are trying to identify the looks and get everybody blocked or field goal protection. Whereas when you are at home it is more of a defensive communication because that is usually when the crowd is the loudest and any adjustments that you make on the defensive side of the ball between the linebackers and the secondary or sometimes involve the defensive linemen that that communication is a little bit harder there. It's good to have the fans behind you, feel their energy, but in the end, on the field, the biggest issue is just communication.
Q: The people out west have been talking about the snow and the cold being a factor, would the wind be, bottom line, be the biggest thing that forces you to change your strategy?
BB: I think really the wind is more of a factor then temperature. I absolutely agree with that and it affects first the kicking game because the ball is in the air longer and it is higher and secondly the passing game and the wind will have, regardless of what the temperature, the wind will have a big effect in those two areas as it gets stronger and depending on which direction it is going whether it is actually down the field or whether it is kind of quartering and coming in from an angle. There is no question that's a big factor and I think the play selection during the game, it's hard to say right now that, 'When the wind is blowing this way we are going to do this or do that.' You have your game plan and you have your strategies for the game, but when you get into the game and the wind conditions at the actual time that you are making the calls, I think the offensive and defensive coaches, and I know from my experience, I take that into consideration and it affects some of the individual calls that we make, no question.
Q: Does having the new stadium next door minimize that effect?
BB: I don't think it is going to slow the wind down any.
Q: Could it be worse?
BB: I think it is just different. You can have a 20 mile an hour wind, if it's a lower stadium like this one is then it is more of a steady flow wind and you don't have the differences that you would have in a higher stadium like Mile High or Giants Stadium is another example, we talked about Shea Stadium the other day, those stadiums that are real high the wind can't just blow across the field, but blows and it swirls and you have a different wind effect from the goal line to the 50 yard-line. So I wouldn't say it is less of a factor, it is just different.
Q: Seems like the new stadium is more open that this one, it seems like it would be even windier?
BB: I think we will just have to see that when we get in there and really get a chance to look at it, but as far as this field goes it plays a little bit differently than some of the higher stadiums do. Again, particularly when the wind quarters and comes in at angle as opposed to right down the field.
Q: They have got guys from Poland, but statistically it is undeniably a big advantage to be playing a playoff game at home?
BB: I am not saying that we are not happy to be playing at home. We are happy to be playing at home, but there are no points on the board for that. We are going to have to go out and earn them and we have seen warm teams play in cold weather and northern teams play in southern climates. You have just got to go out there and play the game.
Q: How do you account for the overwhelming advantage that home teams have, is it the comfort level of practicing at home all week, is it field knowledge, is it weather conditions?
BB: Are you talking about in the playoffs?
Q: Yeah.
BB: I think just in general, not talking about any specific game, but just in general the better teams get the home game. The higher seeded teams play the lower seeded teams at home so I think when you have the first team playing the sixth seeded team or the third team playing the sixth seeded team, however it comes out, that just by the seeding you are saying that the best team is the first team and the sixth team is the sixth team so if you play it on a neutral field you would think that the better team would win. Then when you put that better team at home in that situation it favors the better team. That's kind of the way I have always felt. I would rather have a good team, then have a bad team at home. The good teams tend to win more games at home and they tend to have a better record on the road too.
Q: Charlie Garner practiced very sparingly last week leading into the Jet game, he was very explosive in that game. Were you surprised at how he came through that and what do you expect out of him?
BB: I expect him to be explosive and to be a tough player to stop Saturday night. I was going to send him and [Charles] Woodson some flowers, but they don't practice and then they go out and have interceptions and run back kicks and run 80 yard touchdowns and all of that. I don't know maybe they do better when they don't practice, but they looked pretty good to me. I don't know about him not practicing, but they play every game and they play it well. I think that is probably a bit of a smoke screen.
Q: Are you at all concerned about some of the younger players without playoff experience being overanxious on Saturday, do you think you have enough veterans to help with that?
BB: I don't think the veterans can perform for any of those players. Each guy is going to have to perform for himself and they are going to have to get themselves ready and it will be up to them to regulate their emotions and their performance on the field, but I think you can talk to guys and try to make them aware of it, but playoff experience is playoff experience. You can talk all you want, but there is a difference between playing in those games and hearing somebody else tell you what they are like. I am sure it will be an experience for our guys that haven't done it and it will be a learning experience. We've been in a lot of tight games, we've been in a lot of games that had a lot on the line here in the latter part of the season and hopefully they can draw from those experiences and be able to still play at their peak Saturday night.
Q: Having said that Brady played at Michigan, one of the biggest places to play in college football, but talk about his demeanor a little bit, probably the biggest game he has ever played in have you been inside his head, have you seen how he might respond being the biggest game?
BB: I think that Tom has had a lot of big games this year and I think the one thing that I would say to describe Tom through the whole season has been consistent whether it has been training camp, preseason games, practice, regular season games, games at home, games on the road, you know he is a steady consistent guy that I think the coaches and the players all have a level of confidence in that when you give him something to do you pretty much know what you are going to get from a mental standpoint and from a physical standpoint. I think he has been consistent all year. I would think that probably what we are going to see Saturday night is what we have seen from Tom Brady in the last 14 weeks. I don't think we are going to necessarily see it two or three levels higher or two or three levels lower, I think it is going to be pretty steady and really that is what he has been. He has had a consistent year, I mean sure some plays are better than others and you can pick out a play here or there and talk about it being a great throw or maybe a throw that he shouldn't have made and that kind of thing, but when you look at the 20-40 passes that are thrown during the game, the plays that the quarterback has to execute, be they runs or play-actions or third down plays or red area plays, you know his consistency overall is pretty steady and he grades out pretty consistently when the coaches grade the tape. So I would imagine that is probably what we are going to see Saturday night, but you never know that is why we play the game. I will be the first to say playoff games are not regular season games and you can try to make them, but there is still a difference there, there is no question about it.
Q: That being said about Tom do you think you have an idea of what to expect from your team?
BB: Yeah I would say that my comments would reflect pretty much what I just said about Tom and some of those guys have been there before and some of them haven't, as a team we haven't you know in this situation with this system and these coaches and the players as the team is currently constructed. Sure that's a little bit of an unknown because we haven't done it, but we have been through a lot of other things together and I think that again this team ahs shown some consistency through the year particularly in the last couple of months and I think that is what we are going to get Saturday night.
Q: What sense do you have right now during the week going through practice?
BB: I think we are anxious. Any time you have that week off you are a little bit anxious to play. Your mental clock is to play once a week so we have had a little time off. We are getting close to that time where we have got a lot of time to prepare for the game and we have got a lot to prepare for, but I think players and coaches, you get to the point where after awhile you are kind of sick preparing and you are ready to start playing and I think we are approaching that point.
Q: Has preparation been basically the same as for a regular season game? I know you went to BC [Boston College] the other day, would that have been done if it was October?
BB: Right. If it had been the same scenario in November or December we would have done the same thing. Yeah I think the preparation is generally the same, but I do think there is a little bit of an extra urgency, alertness, by the players when you get to playoff time. We all know what's at stake and it's not…sometimes you have games like that during the season where everything rests on the that last game. Either you win and you are in or you lose and you go home, that kind of thing. But that's truly what it is now, so there is a heightened urgency and awareness and everybody wants to be at their very best. It's a short season at this point, so there is really nothing to hold back for in any phase of the game. And I think there is a little more urgency from the team and I'm sure that is like that with every other team in the playoffs as well.
Q: Rice and Brown are very difficult to cover. Does most of your defensive success revolve around getting pressure on Gannon?
BB: Yeah, well I think in order to defend the passing game disrupting the quarterback is part of it. Obviously there are two elements involved, one guy is throwing and somebody else is catching. So you want to disrupt the guy that is throwing and you also want to disrupt the guys who are catching. Both of those elements are important in the game and to be successful, if you are really successful you are disrupting both of them. If you can do one or the other, then you are going to have some degree of success that way. If you don't disrupt either one, then Gannon will probably be about 85 percent completion and they'll move the ball up and down the field. So it is our job defensively to try to do both of those things at the same time. We have to be aware of the running game and the other threats that they have offensively: the tight ends and they have any array of backs and they bring in third and fourth receivers and those guys can, they can threaten you too.
Q: I assume that you are assuming that you are going to stop their running game because if you can't do that then that is whole other issue?
BB: Yeah. Well I don't assume that we are going to stop anything. I think we are going to have to establish that in the game and the plays that they call, that's…when you are on defense you don't have any control over the ball. All you can control is how you want to deploy your personnel and really what you want to try to stop. I mean there isn't really any defense that stops every single thing that the offense does or we'd all be playing it. So you have to put your chips on some number and know that you are going to be a little light in other areas. When you are on the offensive side of the ball then you can really control everything that you want to control. You control the snap count. You control whose hand the ball is going to be in--whether you want to give it to your quarterback and let him move it from there or whether you want to get it to a certain guy. And you can, in a lot of cases, determine…you have control over it. If you want to throw it deep, you can throw it deep. If you want to give the quarterback the option of putting the ball in different places, then you can call that kind of a play. But defensively all you can do is set up your men and put your chips on where you think the percentages are of what you want to defend. What they elect to do with the ball, that is there choice. So the running game I am sure is going to be a big part of it. The play-action game is a big part of it. The quick passes, the deep passes, again Oakland has got a wide array there in their attack. So we are going to have to play good team defense. I just don't think we can settle all our defensive calls or our personnel towards just stopping one thing. Now maybe in a particular situation we might want to bet on, 'Well this is where we think it is going to go and here is what we are going to stop in this one particular situation,' but I don't think it is going to be like that very often in the game. They just have too many, they have too many options.
Q: With all the time off you've had has Drew [Bledsoe] been able to get more work? Is he more prepared?
BB: Well last week, as we did a little bit for the Carolina bye week, last week all the players took their turns kind of more like a training camp type of a rotation where we rotated every few plays whether it be the offensive line or the quarterbacks or the linebackers, all that. As we've gotten into more of the specific preparations, whether it be the Carolina week of preparation or really this week starting on Monday for Oakland, then the players who are most likely to play in those situations have gotten the majority of the reps just like New Orleans or Buffalo or Miami or any of those other weeks. So once we got into the preparation week it's been like a normal week from that standpoint.
Q: Does he look stronger to you as the weeks have gone on here?
BB: I think initially he did. He gained some strength after those first two or three weeks when came back. After that I think that it's leveled off. I mean it is what it is.
Q: Do you think the team would be in the same position that it is now if Drew Bledsoe was the quarterback?
BB: I don't know. I can't answer that. We've had a lot of things this year that have come up, a lot of different challenges to meet and whatever we tried to take what we had and meet them. There have been injuries on both sides of the ball. There have been some players that if we had sat here in July and talked about who would be big participants, some guys haven't participated as much and other guys that we wouldn't even have been talking about back there have participated more. So there is really no way to answer those kinds of questions.
Q: Drew has obviously led this team to the Super Bowl before. What kinds of things can he impart on Tom [Brady]? I know he has been a help all year, but are there specific playoff-type things that he can impart to Tom?
BB: You know he may have talked to Tom about some of those things specifically. You'd have to ask them. I'm not sure about that. I mean Drew sees the game through a quarterback's eyes and that's a great perspective to have as experienced player see it through. You know as a coach you see the game as a coach, as a player you see it as a quarterback, the position you play and that's…both are good but they are different. They are not exactly the same. So I think that's probably the biggest thing that Drew has done and can do and will do, is see things that a quarterback, not necessarily the way a coach would see it.
Q: Do you prepare your pregame pep talks or do you just go in and wing it?
BB: Well as the week begins I think you…I try to pick out a theme and things that I feel like are going to be important to the game and then as the week goes I usually adjust things daily as to either what I'm going to say, what we're going to do, what I think the…what things are important. When you start preparing for a team on Tuesday or Wednesday you don't know where your team is going to be on Friday. When you get to Friday you have to assess things then and try to figure out what you need to do between Friday and Sunday to better prepare your team and then you reevaluate that on Saturday and do it that way. You know sometimes there are certain things that at the beginning of the week you kind of know are going to be key points you want to make at the end of the week, but I think there is part of that and then there is the other part of as things go along during the week you have to adjust and see what things maybe you thought the team would have a better understanding of or they would be more focused on and maybe they're not. So you need to change that focus and make sure that…I think the bottom line is you want to make sure that your team is going into the game the way you want it to go into the game. You want them to be thinking a certain way in the game and by Sunday at one or Saturday at eight or whenever the game is scheduled, that's when you want to make sure that that's the way they are thinking about it.
Q: Themes of the week?
BB: The themes of the week were maybe the themes that have evolved during the course of the week.
Q: How much credit does Larry Izzo get?
BB: Well Larry's been a…you know he's really done a great job for us this year. He's given us fine play on the field and he's given us good leadership off the field. He's a guy that gets the special teams players together and they look at tape and they spend extra time going over things that we've already covered, you know Brad [Seely] has already covered. But when the players get together and talk about the way they would talk about it on the field, things like punt protection and kickoff return, punt return, you know plays that are really pretty complex and a lot of things can happen. Once the ball is snapped then all hell breaks loose. You've got guys running all over the place. It's kind of organized chaos is really what it is. The players being able to work together and handle those different situations on the fly, on the run, that's something that only the guys out there on the field can do together and they have to understand each other and understand what the overall concept is. Larry's done a good job with that. I think that his commitment to special teams has certainly carried over to some other players, seeing that commitment, and getting them to see his example and work toward it.
Q: Jon Gruden on Monday was real complimentary of you…
BB: That's real nice of him.
Q: How did you score the Bon Jovi tickets?
BB: I've got a good broker. No, Jon Bon Jovi is a guy that I've known since I was with the Giants. So it's been quite a few years and we've gone back a ways. So he's done some favors for me and I've done some favors for him or somebody that I know is interested and he can help me out with tickets sometimes. He's a good contact there on those concerts.
Q: How might the elements affect the punting game and the approach to the punting game?
BB: The elements of…?
Q: Weather conditions.
BB: I think in terms of what we talked about earlier, in terms of wind, that's the number one condition that affects you and you know that's kind of a two-pronged thing. Everybody thinks about the punting game with the wind just or how it affects the punter. But I can tell you it also affects the snapper because that's…when you are kicking with the wind, punting with the wind, then the snapper is snapping into it. So being able to handle the ball and the fluttering of the ball or the rotation, if it's not tight there, that's an important part of the play too. So it's just I think a heightened concentration and understanding the situation. And obviously playing the wind conditions, for a punter to, regardless of which way the wind is blowing, the longer the ball is in the air between his hand and the foot then generally the less control you have over it. So you try to change your technique a little bit and it's important for the coverage people to understand when we are punting into the wind obviously the ball won't go as far and to be more intent going toward the middle of the field versus kicking with the wind where you're expecting a longer ball and you really have more room to cover


Today I finally listed an item in my etsy shop and boy was it harder than I thought it would be! Photos look completely different in the small thumbnails they create. I had such a hard time coming up with a description of the card too! Tomorrow I'm going to go back and take all new photos and try again. The whole thing is a learning experience and I realized I need to step up my game by about 1000%.

Demo Arcules Solution
Insight From Arcules' New CRO Nigel Waterton on Company, Cloud
Cloud. Who would've thought that just a single word would be one of the biggest driving forces behind my path in the security industry? Forging a new direction in any career can be a calculated risk, but the decision to join Arcules on the journey toward educating the security market about the cloud doesn't seem like a risk at all (and I'm a risk management guy).
I've always advocated that cloud-based initiatives are the key to success, especially as we've seen them mature exponentially over the last 10 years. In general, people use the cloud more often than we realize; everything from social media to banking to file sharing can be done seamlessly with the cloud running in the background of our daily lives. This is a concept that now needs to extend to business needs where organizations can realize the cloud's ease of use.
This is where Arcules comes into play. I chose to join this team because I believe that Arcules solves the problem of what it means to drive video software as a service in the cloud. The company tends to a marketplace need through its sense of innovation, adaptability and desire to listen to its customers.
But the security industry is still experiencing barriers when it comes to cloud adoption. And though it may seem rudimentary, the real challenge lies in defining the term. Many people are creating their own notion of what the cloud is, leading to the lack of a unified understanding of proper nomenclature. The word therefore becomes difficult to absorb in an industry where we commonly talk about physical devices (and terms) that are so widely known, such as surveillance cameras.
Overcoming this challenge starts with transforming the mindset from physical security to solving risk-based problems. By understanding the risks to an organization, we can become practitioners of risk-based outcomes rather than technology-based outcomes. Cloud infrastructure is made up of more than just devices; it encompasses the people, processes and technology applications that are required to enable organizations to accomplish their business and security goals.
We must also properly communicate the numerous benefits of the cloud, with one of the most important being the fact that an organization doesn't need to maintain the technology itself. Placing data in the cloud removes the inherent risk element that used to cost businesses a significant amount of money and personnel to manage on their own.
As we move forward and the cloud is increasingly adopted in the marketplace, it's important for us to recognize the unique challenges end users face and determine how best we can address their requirements. Arcules separates itself in this regard, with an understanding that the cloud adoption process is incremental and must be tailored to a customer's specific operation.
I'm strongly passionate about leading this charge and creating a positive impact in the industry. Risk is inherent in our society — and it's a risk I feel much more deeply as a parent witnessing tragedies in a number of places around the globe. We must be part of a rising group of voices in the industry that says that we can actually change and improve things and not just talk about it. If we don't start it, no one will.

Benjamin Mays, mentor to Martin Luther King, once said: "He who starts behind in the great race of life, must forever remain behind, or run faster than the man in front." Mays' comments were made in the context of the 1960s civil rights movement in America, but could just as easily apply to inequalities today—and with regard to our digital future.
We innovate every day at Accenture to build more inclusive societies and to create a positive, meaningful impact. To support our efforts, our Chairman & CEO Pierre Nanterme recently announced that Accenture is committing more than $200 million over the next three years to help equip people around the world with job skills for the digital age.
I'm proud to lead Corporate Citizenship for an organization that truly "walks the walk" and know this investment comes at a critical time for those who are facing disruption and change in many societies and economies.
Accenture research shows that vulnerable and marginalized populations could face a "double disadvantage" in the future, due to an inability to adapt as the world economy puts greater emphasis on digital skills. For example, while 40 percent of workers with lower secondary degrees are in jobs with a high risk of automation, less than 5 percent of workers with a university-level degree face the same challenge.
I've seen this kind of double disadvantage firsthand while working with underserved populations in places such as rural Tanzania, and through Accenture's nonprofit partnerships around the world. And I've also witnessed the immediate benefit of providing people with education and skills to support themselves in this new digital era.
When I met Sarwari during my travels in India, she shared her dream of becoming economically independent, but lacked the skills to get a job.

Q: Public server with nginx I would like to make my development server public.
I have a static ip address from my ISP.
As usually I have a router and server connected to that router. In the router's settings I've set the forwarding port to 3000, so if somebody will try my_public_ip_address:3000, it will be forwarded to my local server.
Nginx config file:
upstream app {
  server points_to_app_on_server;
}

server {
  listen 3000;
  server_name <what is name should be here?>;

  ...
}

Is it possible to configure nginx to make my server public?
Also is it possible to make it accessible from local network?

A: Of course it can. If your server's ports are exposed to the public, then anyone can connect to your running services like nginx.
With the config file you have, listening on port 3000, and if your public.ip:3000 is forwarded (or NATed) to local.ip:3000, then anyone can access your nginx server by connecting to your.public.ip:3000. Anyone in your local network can also access your server, either by your.local.ip:3000 or your.public.ip:3000 (assuming you have internet connection in your local network).

The Pentagon says a massive 13,600-kilogram bomb capable of penetrating deep underground facilities should be deployable in the coming months.
Pentagon spokesman Geoff Morrell has told reporters Wednesday the "Massive Ordinance Penetrator" (MOP) is designed to defeat "hardened facilities" that are used by "hostile states to protect weapons of mass destruction."
Morrell declined to say whether deployment of the new weapon is linked to International concern about Iran's nuclear program. He told reporters that any efforts to "speculate about possible targets" are unhelpful.
Iran recently confirmed it has a uranium enrichment plant at an underground site near the holy city of Qom. The United Nations nuclear agency, IAEA, is scheduled to inspect the facility, which was built without advance notice to the international community, on October 25.
The IAEA visit was announced after last week's meeting in Geneva between Iran and six world powers that have been pursuing efforts to ensure that Iran's nuclear program does not include any work on nuclear weapons.
Tehran contends its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, but Western nations suspect it may be weapons-related.
U.S. officials have not ruled out possible military action against Iran if diplomacy fails.

#Anisotropic conductive film
#Product history
The benefits & background of ArrayFIX, a particle-arrayed ACF
History of the development of the ACF
In 1977, the company preceding Dexerials Corporation, Sony Chemicals, pioneered the development of anisotropic conductive film (ACF) made for IC connections. An ACF, which consists of fine conductive particles dispersed in a thermosetting resin, is a material that can connect many electrodes at once by applying heat and pressure. More than 40 years after its development, the ACF has undergone various improvements and is now an indispensable part of digital displays.
The below timeline shows the progression of material and size of conductive particles in ACFs. The first ACF employed carbon fiber conductors about 100 µm in size. A few years later came ACFs employing metal particles of 50 µm in diameter, about half the size of the original ones. In 1988, conductive particles plated with nickel or gold on resin were designed and used to connect glass substrates with ICs (integrated circuits).
In the 1990s, the technology to apply an insulating coating to the surface of the particles was developed. When the conductive particles are trapped between opposing terminals, it removes the coating to create electrical connections while the particles that are not trapped retain their coating and maintain insulation. This mechanism prevents short circuits between adjacent terminals, making it possible to accommodate small ICs and multiple terminals with narrow terminal spacing. In the early 2000s, demand for ACFs exploded as the transition from CRT to LCD TVs took off. It is no exaggeration to say that ACFs are now an essential material for digital displays.
The graphic below shows ACF applications in LCD TV and smartphone displays. ACFs are generally used to connect the display panel to the flexible substrate that sends signals to the panel, or to the IC. ACF applications include:
COG (Chip-on-Glass), connection between the IC and the glass substrate
FOG (Flex-on-Glass), connection between the flexible substrate and the glass substrate
FOB (Flex-on-Board), connection between the flexible substrate and the rigid substrate
ArrayFIX, an anisotropic conductive film with aligned particles
A further breakthrough in ACF technology occurred in 2014. As fine pitch circuits emerged, the particles in ACFs continued to get smaller. In 2016, "ArrayFIX" was launched as a new ACF that had aligned conductive particles in the resin. Applications included, but not limited to, high-end smartphones, wearable devices, and automotive displays that use organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) in addition to conventional LCDs. The use of ArrayFIX is expanding in devices that require highly reliable fine pitch connections.
The image below shows the dispersion of particles inside a conventional ACF (left) and ArrayFIX (right). In the conventional type, the small particles are randomly dispersed, whereas in ArrayFIX, the particles are neatly aligned on a flat surface at regular intervals. This kind of fine control of particle alignment within the resin requires special technology, which is unique to Dexerials.
The greatest advantage of this arrangement of conductive particles at regular intervals is that it ensures conductivity and reduces the risk of short circuits between terminals. The circuit boards are becoming increasingly fine pitch, the area of connecting terminals is becoming smaller, and the spacing between them is becoming narrower every year. In response, the amount of conductive particles in conventional ACFs has increased so that more than the standard number of particles are trapped even in the smaller terminals. However, this means that there are more particles between terminals with narrow spacing, increasing the possibility of a short circuit. In contrast, ArrayFIX, where the particles are arranged in an orderly fashion, reduces the risk of a short circuit due to particle-to-particle contact between terminals. This is because the particles are far enough apart to be safe, while at the same time trapping a sufficient number of particles in the terminals to provide conductivity.
Simulated particle trapping
Due to its ability to reliably trap particles and reduce the risk of short circuiting as described above, ArrayFIX is being used in high-end smartphone displays and in automotive displays. Another advantage of the ArrayFIX is that it is easy to forecast the number of captured particles. This is because the number of trapped particles per terminal in conventional ACFs follows a probability distribution, whereas in particle-arrayed ACFs, the position of the particles is designed and determined in advance, enabling very stable particle capture. The wiring and terminals can be designed on a computer in advance, which allows customers to verify their designs in a short period of time leading to a shorter development period.
Dexerials currently offers three major types of the ArrayFIX: the PAF300 series, PAF400 series, and the PAF700 series. They differ in particle size, distance between arrays, and curing temperature of the base adhesive, making them suitable for a variety of applications.
Since its launch in December 2016, the demand for ArrayFIX continues to grow for flexible OLED devices, which require COP (Chip on Plastic) connections. Dexerials is certain that the use of ArrayFIX will continue to grow as the OLED market expands.

«Цепи-ленты» — песня, написанная Владой Куприяновой и записанная украинской певицей Ёлкой, для её четвёртого студийного альбома «Точки расставлены» (2011). Композиция, спродюсированная Сергеем Курицыным, была выпущена, как четвёртый официальный сингл с альбома 2 мая 2012 года.

Предыстория и релиз
На презентации четвёртого альбома в московском клубе Arena Moscow 18 ноября 2011 году, Ёлка упомянула, что песню «Цепи-ленты» написала киевский автор Влада Куприянова. «Журналисты часто меня спрашивают, откуда вы берете авторов ваших песен. Многое мне присылают по Интернету. Вот, песню "Цепи-ленты" написала девочка Влада. Она сегодня специально прилетела из Киева ради моего концерта!», — говорила певица. 2 мая 2012 года песня была выпущена в радиоротацию, как четвёртый сингл из альбома, через систему Tophit.

Реакция критики
В целом, песня получила положительные отзывы от критиков, музыкальных журналистов и программных директоров радиостанций, заняв десятое место в «Экспертном чарте» портала RedStarMusic.ru, за апрель 2012 года. Многие музыкальные критики выделяли роковое настроение композиции и отмечали, что она могла бы хорошо звучать в эфире Нашего радио. Алексей Мажаев в обзоре альбома «Точки расставлены» дал песне высокую оценку и писал: «Намедни, заполняя экспертный бюллетень "Чартовой дюжины", я был удивлен, что в списке лучших певиц там отсутствует Ёлка. Женя Любич, Татьяна Зыкина и Светлана Сурганова, значит, у них рок, а вот Ёлка нет, и песня "Цепи-ленты" на "Нашем" до сих пор не звучит, хотя в ней вокалистка легко убирает виртуальных лидеров российского женского рока». Николай Фандеев так же писал, что «Цепи-ленты» могла бы звучать на Нашем радио («Интересно, поставит ли этот красивейший трек в свой эфир "Наше радио"?») и отмечал, что «в песне "Цепи-ленты" Ёлка своими интонациями сильно напоминает… Земфиру, превосходя последнюю абсолютно во всём!». Александр Ковальчук из издания «Вголос» в свою очередь тоже проводил в песне параллели с манерой исполнения Земфиры, но в негативном ключе: «Наиболее ярким примером Земфириного эпигонства Ёлки является трек "Цепи-ленты", где лирика и интонации слизаны один в один. На горизонте маячит только один вопрос — для чего Ёлке копировать Земфиру? Ёлка же вроде неплохая вокалистка».

Музыкальное видео
В середине марта 2012 года был представлен клип на песню. Режиссёром выступил Алексей Ракитин. На сайте Omusic.com.ua писали, что клип получился необычным и связанным напрямую с текстом композиции: «[он] представлен в виде аппликаций с множества фотографий динамически меняющихся между собой. На фотографиях изображены различные уголки нашей планеты, множество людей со своими заботами и проблемами». Эльвира Яковлева из Starland.ru положительно описывала видео: «Идея аппликаций, конечно, не нова, но получилось довольно симпатично. Рисованный клип на песню "Цепи-ленты" рассказывает о мыслях и мечтах, как самой певицы, так, во многом, и её слушателя. А видеоряд состоит из кусочков фотографий, динамично сменяющих друг друга. Изображены на них различные уголки планеты, и эпизоды из жизни людей. Смотрите и наслаждайтесь».

It's the evening of Easter Sunday as I write this, more than three weeks after I completed my 30 Days of Song thing. I used the same song — "Indescribable" by Chris Tomlin — for a couple of those days.
This song inspires me as much as Tomlin's and I absolutely want to weep with emotion when I hear it and realize anew just how much He indeed loves us.
See, in the Hebrew language, "love" isn't just a fuzzy feeling. It's action. And when Jesus took the cross on our behalf, He took action that is utterly staggering to contemplate.
Anyone who read my long-running, slow-burning treatise on Life Lessons I learned from The Empire Strikes Back won't be a bit surprised at this selection.
A rare bit of scene scoring that functions equally well as a concert piece, this is some of John Williams' greatest writing.
Incidentally, there is a concert version of the song. It's not nearly as good.


Modern businesses have begun to rely on virtualized environments a lot more these days. A main reason is virtualization allows them to provide a consistent experience across different devices to users around the world. A virtualized environment has the potential to become a powerful tool in business -- but the migration needs to be done properly or the results could be disappointing.
When the migration of virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) takes place within an organization, users will either love it or hate it depending upon the success or failure of the process. Here we will not only discuss the factors that contribute to a smooth VDI migration, but also the potential problems you should avoid at all costs.
Assessments help an organization gauge user consumption patterns on a specific physical device, whether it's a desktop computer, smartphone, or other mobile device. Some of the common metrics to look for include the way the operating system interacts with components such as applications, CPU, IOPS, memory, device hardware, and network resources. Once this data gets collected across a long period, the positives and negatives of user consumption are revealed. Just like Riley was revealed to be a traitor in "Fast & Furious 6," much to the dismay of Hobbs and morality!
Applying the data to different mathematical formulas enables you to understand not just the software inventory and growth rates, but also get a perspective on the requirements of user groups from the viewpoint of a hypervisor. It also allows you to figure out the kind of hardware that needs a disproportionate quantity of resources.
Assessments play an essential role in architecting the kind of environments that are required for five-year survivals. You end up with wasted resources if too much hardware is built; on the other hand, not enough resources for software means the user experience takes a hit. Worst case scenario, the VDI project falls apart. Proper assessments help you figure out your requirements, such as poor hardware identification, consolidation of software, and optimization of virtual images.
VDI is an entirely new breed of computing environment, and it gives a huge boost to user experience, especially in the field of image optimization. Linux and Windows operating systems have a lot of components like BranchCache, Bluetooth support, Internet Connection Sharing, and Family Safety that are redundant in the case of VDI deployment. The settings for these need to be disabled.
Hundreds of services and settings need to be removed from the OS after VDI migration, as these negatively impact the usage of CPU, IOPS, and RAM by the system even when there's nobody logged in. This might not seem like much, but it makes all the difference between housing around 50 users in a single hypervisor instead of 80.
The virtual desktop infrastructure presents several hurdles to software vendors seeking to promote their products within a constantly evolving digital landscape. This means applications with coding meant for physical machines will oftentimes not perform adequately when they are migrated to a VDI environment.
Common causes for such problems are myriad, ranging from coding application problems, improper coding, and incompatibility with numerous CPUs. The best way to deal with these issues is to download updated versions of the common applications. You can even discuss your requirements with application vendors as many of them now possess virtualization-optimized apps.
While considering the right sort of software for the VDI environment, you should take the security software into account. Antivirus software tends to go haywire (like Chris Manawa did in "Fear the Walking Dead"!) when the version meant for physical desktops is utilized for VDI systems.
Therefore, you should instead flip the switch for security apps that consider the virtual desktop infrastructure's economies of scale. Many antivirus engines perform at the hypervisor level, thereby removing most of the duplicate work. Moreover, if the layer on top of the guest OS has an antivirus feature in place, you have the benefit of a safer environment.
If VDI architecture is properly migrated, it means you're well equipped to handle the long-term maintenance of virtual desktop infrastructure. Still, upon reaching maturity, the project might seem like it can take on 100 or so extra users without any prior assessment or planning. This is a complete no-no as it can actually kill your environment.
Most VDI resources are designed to handle long-term and short-term usage. The addition of more than 100 new users might seem negligible in a 1,000-user environment. Unfortunately, what works well in the short term can easily lead to VDI failure over time. Over the long term, the initial VDI design actually has more resources than it can account for.
The majority of system resources tend to rise by 5 percent each year, such as IOPS consumption, CPU consumption, and memory. More developed applications mean image and software updates take up more system resources. It might not be problematic to add some more users to the system at the moment, but the situation might take a turn for the worse a couple of years down the line.
Virtual machine-related resources often cause issues with VDI user experience. Sometimes, users are not given the correct amount of memory or CPU cores to conduct their work. A lot of clients have also begun to employ VDI systems consisting of a single virtual core. This economy is false as a VDI system burdens the CPU core with a lot more load than its physical counterparts.
In a physical machine, hundreds of individual systems work together to form a cohesive computing environment. For virtualization, the CPU needs to virtualize all these discrete circuits. Compacting all this into one core can either lead to disaster or success.
It's not a bad idea to add cores, especially if you wish for hypervisor CPU operations between the 60 percent and 80 percent range. This value, when surpassed by the hypervisor's CPU and attending to guest VMs, means you're fully utilizing a highly expensive hypervisor CPU.
Non-persistent virtual desktop infrastructure is a more stable version with increased security. This means the machines wipe away details not shared by a profile solution once the users log off. Thus, any information that isn't stored in the profile solution gets wiped away.
This decreases the chances of viruses, adware, ransomware, malware, and spyware on the system. It also drastically reduces the number of hypervisors in the environment, since you only need the same amount of running machines. This significantly affects the storage space needed by VDI, since linked clones read from one master image.
Non-persistent VDI may be updated during the installation of base image software updates, system updates, and antivirus updates. In spite of the benefits, companies struggle to deploy non-persistent VDI owing to the level of work that has to be performed when it comes to deploying apps over the systems. Barring these types of problems, this is an ideal solution for your business.
The trend of virtual desktop infrastructure migration is sweeping organizations around the world. Proper migration can yield tangible results for your business, which is why you need to know how to deal with any pitfalls heading your way.


"According to a recent study conducted on mice, just two tablespoons of canola oil per day can cause weight gain and severe progression of Alzheimer's disease. The new results are calling into question previous recommendations of canola oil as a healthful alternative to saturated fats.
Abstract: In recent years consumption of canola oil has increased due to lower cost compared with olive oil and the perception that it shares its health benefits. However, no data are available on the effect of canola oil intake on Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Herein, we investigated the effect of chronic daily consumption of canola oil on the phenotype of a mouse model of AD that develops both plaques and tangles (3xTg). To this end mice received either regular chow or a chow diet supplemented with canola oil for 6 months. At this time point we found that chronic exposure to the canola-rich diet resulted in a significant increase in body weight and impairments in their working memory together with decrease levels of post-synaptic density protein-95, a marker of synaptic integrity, and an increase in the ratio of insoluble A? 42/40. No significant changes were observed in tau phosphorylation and neuroinflammation. Taken together, our findings do not support a beneficial effect of chronic canola oil consumption on two important aspects of AD pathophysiology which includes memory impairments as well as synaptic integrity. While more studies are needed, our data do not justify the current trend aimed at replacing olive oil with canola oil.
If we give up canola oil we will substitute another oil. Therefore the control should have been another oil, not absence of oil.
I suspect they didn't for simplicity, because there's been plenty of studies with olive oil that have found primarily positive effects. Had they compared olive vs. canola oil, and had results for canola oil been as negative as outlined above, someone could have said "Well, it's perhaps not as good as olive oil, but surely it's better than nothing?" Which, via the (imperfect) methodology used, that was shown not to be the case.
