La diocesi di Nardò-Gallipoli (in latino: Dioecesis Neritonensis-Gallipolitana) è una sede della Chiesa cattolica in Italia suffraganea dell'arcidiocesi di Lecce appartenente alla regione ecclesiastica Puglia. Nel 2019 contava 208.223 battezzati su 209.863 abitanti. È retta dal vescovo Fernando Filograna.

Territorio

La diocesi comprende la porzione occidentale del Salento.

Sede vescovile è la città di Nardò, dove si trova la basilica cattedrale dell'Assunzione di Maria Vergine. A Gallipoli si trova la basilica concattedrale di Sant'Agata.

Parrocchie e zone pastorali

Il territorio è suddiviso in 66 parrocchie, raggruppate in 6 zone pastorali o foranie:
 "Beata Vergine Maria della Coltura", comprendente le parrocchie dei comuni di: Casarano, Matino, Parabita e Tuglie;
 "Sant'Agata", comprendente le parrocchie dei comuni di: Alezio, Gallipoli e Sannicola con le frazioni di Chiesanuova, Lido Conchiglie e San Simone (tale giurisdizione rispecchia quasi esattamente i confini della vecchia diocesi di Gallipoli; il territorio del comune di Tuglie era diviso, infatti, con la diocesi di Nardò);

Strutture formative e residenziali

 Episcopio (Gallipoli);
Il Palazzo vescovile è attiguo alla Cattedrale di Gallipoli. Il vescovo Massa nel 1652 fece demolire la struttura preesistente in quanto in stato fatiscente e, nel 1700, il vescovo Oronzo Filomarini lo abbellì di suppellettili, mobili pregiati, tele e affreschi realizzati dall'artista gallipolino Michele Lenti.
L'edificio è ampio e disposto in tre ampi piani e dispone di un giardino e di una cappella privata del vescovo. Nel corso degli anni vi hanno fatto visita sovrani e personalità eminenti del panorama politico e religioso. È doveroso citare la visita svolta nel 1844 da re Ferdinando II con la consorte Maria Teresa d'Austria.
In passato ha ospitato diverse istituzioni scolastiche, tra cui il Liceo Quinto Ennio ed è stato dimora fissa dei vescovi che negli anni si sono succeduti nella chiesa gallipolina.

Dopo anni di chiusura dovuta ad una ristrutturazione radicale, il 15 ottobre 2015 il vescovo Filograna ha inaugurato l'episcopio che ospita anche la "Mensa della Carità" per i poveri e il Centro ascolto diocesano.
 Seminario diocesano - Gallipoli;
L'edificio, sede del Museo diocesano di Gallipoli è utilizzato per mostre, convegni e riunioni.
 Casa per ferie e campiscuola "La Lizza" - Alezio;
La struttura, ristrutturata recentemente, adiacente al santuario mariano di "Santa Maria della Lizza", è predisposta per incontri spirituali o culturali, vacanze e campiscuola.
 Complesso formativo residenziale "Oasi Tabor" - Cenate;
L'opera, realizzata sotto l'episcopato di Corrado Ursi, con annessa l'antica villa estiva dei vescovi di Nardò, fu realizzata per la formazione del clero e dei fedeli.
Negli ultimi anni, dopo la ristrutturazione, la struttura è stata adibita anche a casa di vacanza o location per eventi culturali.
 Seminario diocesano - Nardò;
L'edificio è utilizzato, in alcuni periodi dell'anno, per campiscuola, esercizi spirituali o convegni
 Casa per ferie "Elvira" - Santa Caterina.
Residenza destinata ai gruppi parrocchiali per incontri spirituali o formativi.

Storia

Diocesi di Gallipoli
Incerte sono le origini della diocesi di Gallipoli. Secondo la "tradizione petrina", la città di Gallipoli fu decorata, sin dai primi tempi del cristianesimo, della cattedra vescovile dallo stesso apostolo Pietro che, di passaggio a Gallipoli nel suo viaggio verso Roma, dopo aver fondato la diocesi, avrebbe lasciato la giovane chiesa al suo discepolo san Pancrazio, il quale in seguito si trasferì in Sicilia, subendo il martirio a Taormina.
Come scrive Nicola Maria Cataldi, Pietro sarebbe giunto in Italia sbarcando nel porto di Gallipoli con i discepoli e fedeli provenienti da Antiochia, nell'anno 42 o 43 sotto il regno di Claudio. A testimoniare il passaggio dell'apostolo fu costruita la chiesa di San Pietro dei Samari nel territorio diocesano, dove si crede che san Pietro abbia battezzato i primi fedeli; altro edificio religioso era San Pietro "cucurizzutu" (per via della forma piramidale della cupola), registrato nella visita pastorale di Pellegrino Cibo (1536-1540).
Nella vicina Alezio esisteva nel XVI secolo una cappella dedicata al primo vescovo, la quale era affiancata da un pozzo le cui acque si veneravano come miracolose e prodigiose, perché Pancrazio aveva battezzato i fedeli convertiti alla nuova religione.
Sui quattro lati del pozzo leggevasi la seguente iscrizione: P.C.A.D. (Pancratio Callipolitano Antistiti Dicatum = Dedicato a Pancrazio primo vescovo gallipolitano).
Il vescovo Vincenzo Capece (1596-1620) volle fare immortalare questa tradizione commissionando un'opera a Gian Domenico Catalano (oggi nella sacrestia del santuario della Lizza in Alezio).

Non si hanno delle fonti storiografiche che attestino il nome del Pontefice che elevò Gallipoli a sede vescovile; Ferdinando Ughelli, acuto storico dell'origine delle sedi episcopali, scrisse nel tomo IX della sua opera maggiore "Italia Sacra" che vetustissimus Callipolitanus Episcopatus est. È certo però che la diocesi di Gallipoli sia anteriore ai tempi di papa Gregorio I.
Primo vescovo attestato storicamente e largamente condiviso dagli storici è Domenico, che sottoscrisse un decreto di papa Vigilio del 551 contro Teodoro, arcivescovo monofisita di Cesarea.

L'accademico e storico Giorgio Otranto, nella sua opera "Italia meridionale e Puglia paleocristiane: saggi storici", sostiene che la diocesi risalirebbe addirittura all'inizio del V secolo o alla fine del IV; certo è che Gallipoli, verso la fine del VI secolo, fosse una sede vescovile latina.

Fino all'VIII secolo era una diocesi immediatamente soggetta alla Santa Sede.
Successivamente
dall'VIII all'XI secolo le diocesi salentine gravitarono nell'orbita del patriarcato di Costantinopoli, fino alla conquista normanna della regione. In epoca bizantina, Gallipoli era suffraganea dell'arcidiocesi di Santa Severina, come attestato dalla Notitia Episcopatuum attribuita all'imperatore bizantino Leone VI (886-912) e databile all'inizio del X secolo.

Un tempo comprendeva numerosi territori come Nardò, Copertino, Galatone, Seclì, Noha, Neviano, Tuglie, Parabita, Alliste, Felline, Taviano e Casarano. A confermare l'ipotesi che Nardò ne abbia fatto parte, vi è un breve documento spedito da Clemente VI ad Avignone nel 1348.

Il capitolo dei canonici della cattedrale di Gallipoli eleggeva i vescovi fino al XIV secolo, ma numerosi furono i problemi che nacquero tra gli elettori e gli eletti. Clemente V fu il primo romano pontefice che provvide all'elezione dei vescovi gallipolitani.

In seguito ai cambiamenti politici nel Salento, subito dopo il sinodo di Melfi del 1067, Gallipoli divenne suffraganea dell'arcidiocesi di Otranto. Il rito latino si impose nella diocesi solo gradualmente: ancora nel XVI secolo la cattedrale era officiata da sacerdoti di rito bizantino.

Fu mantenuto il rito greco-bizantino fino al 1513 a causa della presenza dei monaci basiliani che si rifugiarono a Gallipoli per scampare alle persecuzioni iconoclaste.
A ricordo di questa antica tradizione del rito greco osservato nella diocesi, durante i solenni pontificali di Sant'Agata presieduti dal vescovo, il Vangelo viene proclamato in greco dal canonico del capitolo della cattedrale.
La diocesi di Gallipoli, con l'avvento dei Normanni, come attestato da un documento del 1172, dovette cedere la gran parte del suo territorio alla vicina abbazia di Sancta Maria de Nerito.

La diocesi generò molti vescovi tra cui: Filippo Gorgoni (vescovo di Ugento), Antonio Camaldari (vescovo di Montepeloso), Fra Ludovico Bevilacqua (vescovo di Catellammare), Fra Domenico Stradiotti (vescovo di Castro), Giovanni Carlo Coppola (abate e vescovo di Muro Lucano), Abate Ercole Coppola (vescovo di Nicotera), Guglielmo Camaldari (arcivescovo di Rossano) e Filippo D'Aprile (vescovo di Teano e in seguito traslato alla sede di Melfi e Rapolla).
È certo che la diocesi gallipolitana generò importanti e conosciute personalità religiose: alcuni vescovi saranno elevati alla dignità cardinalizia come Corrado di Sabina, il cardinale camerlengo Francesco Armellini Pantalassi de' Medici ed Andrea della Valle; il vescovo Alessio Zelodano fu chiamato da papa Giulio II come segretario ufficiale, essendo riconosciuta la sua ottima preparazione in ambito teologico e filosofico; il cardinale Vincenzo Orsini arcivescovo di Benevento e poi eletto papa col nome di Benedetto XIII fu un commendatario dell'abbazia di San Mauro. Filippo V di Spagna chiamò presso la propria corte l'arcivescovo gallipolitano Antonio Maria Piscatori, nominandolo predicatore della Corte, qualificatore della Sacra Inquisizione, Teologo ed esaminatore nell'apostolica Nunziatura del Regno di Spagna.

Il 47º vescovo di Gallipoli Gonzalo de Rueda, per la sua austera e lodevole vita, fu proposto come modello a tutti i nuovi vescovi da Papa Urbano VIII, il quale affermava spesso: "Speculatevi in quel Santo Prelato di Gallipoli".

Secondo il professore Antonio Barbino, questi vescovi hanno contribuito a rendere l'«antica diocesi gallipolina una della più importanti d'Italia», oltre ad essere una delle più antiche.

Diocesi di Nardò

Più giovane è la diocesi di Nardò, città elevata a sede vescovile nel 1413. Tuttavia negli ultimi anni sono state avanzate delle ipotesi azzardate che farebbero risalire la data della fondazione della diocesi all'VIII secolo d.C., ossia due secoli dopo alla nascita della diocesi di Gallipoli; lo storico gallipolino Elio Pindinelli smentisce ufficialmente questa ipotesi, attribuendone l'origine a un noto falsario d'epoca illuminista, Pietro Polidori.
Una recente pubblicazione porta alla luce la notizia che la diocesi fu istituita grazie ai favori dell'antipapa Clemente VII nel 1387.
È probabile che Nardò fosse già una diocesi nei primi secoli dell'era cristiana. Infatti esiste una lettera apostolica, dubbia, di papa Paolo I, del 761 o del 762, indirizzata alla diocesi, per porre fine all'elezione dell'ordinario; con tale documento si disponeva, altresì, l'insediamento di una comunità di archimandriti basiliani, i quali erano stati vittima della persecuzione di Costantino V. Di tale tradizione il vescovo Girolamo De Franchis fece riferimento nella documentazione riguardante la visita pastorale del 1612, allorché menzionava alcune lettere apostoliche del V e VI custodite presso l'arcidiocesi di Brindisi. Tracce della grecità della diocesi neretina sono riportate, riguardo l'arredo sacro, nelle visite pastorali del XV secolo.

Documentata invece è l'erezione di Nardò, a partire dal 1090, a sede di abbazia territoriale benedettina. Donazioni, lasciti, privilegi e concessioni
a favore degli Abati, contribuirono alla fisionomia territoriale della diocesi di Nardò. Storicamente incerta appare, tuttavia, l'esistenza di una diocesi, prima della supplica per la sua erezione, da parte di Giovanni De Epifanis all'antipapa Giovanni XXIII. Proprio il De Epifanis divenne il 12 gennaio 1413 primo vescovo di Nardò. Tuttavia già durante lo scisma avignonese Nardò ebbe un vescovo, l'abate Matteo, nominato dall'antipapa Clemente VII il 28 giugno 1387.

Il 27 febbraio 1674 fu eretto dal vescovo Tommaso Brancaccio il seminario diocesano di Nardò, dedicato a san Filippo Neri, ubicato, sino al 1964, accanto all'episcopio. A tale istituto concorsero a dare vitalità e splendore i vescovi Orazio Fortunato, Antonio Sanfelice, Carmine Fimiani, Luigi Vetta, Michele Mautone e Francesco Minerva. Mentre la posa della prima pietra della nuova sede, sita in via dell'Incoronata, avvenne il 31 maggio 1960, sotto l'episcopato di Corrado Ursi. Tale complesso fu inaugurato il 7 maggio 1964 dal successore Antonio Rosario Mennonna. L'edificio, per volere del vescovo Aldo Garzia, fu ristrutturato e riaperto l'8 dicembre 1993. Il seminario ospita anche l'Istituto di Scienze Religiose. Nel medesimo edificio, con decisione del Consiglio presbiterale del 25 ottobre 2011, sarà realizzata la Casa diocesana del Clero, attrezzata all'accoglienza dei sacerdoti anziani o infermi.

Fabio Chigi, già vescovo di Nardò, fu eletto, il 7 aprile 1655, al soglio pontificio con il nome di papa Alessandro VII.

Diocesi di Nardò-Gallipoli
Sino al 20 ottobre 1980, data dell'erezione della provincia ecclesiastica dell'arcidiocesi di Lecce, la diocesi di Nardò era immediatamente soggetta alla Santa Sede, mentre la sede di Gallipoli era suffraganea dell'arcidiocesi di Otranto.

Il 30 settembre 1983 Aldo Garzia, già vescovo di Gallipoli e coadiutore di Antonio Rosario Mennonna, divenne per successione vescovo di Nardò, unendo così in persona episcopi le due diocesi.

Il medesimo vescovo, il 20 febbraio 1984, eresse il Centro Diocesano Beni Culturali, comprendente l'Archivio Storico e la Biblioteca "Antonio Sanfelice", fondata nel 1721. Tale centro, per la consistenza del patrimonio archivistico, è stato ritenuto dal Presidente della Regione Puglia, con decreti del 10 maggio 1984 e 21 maggio 1985, di "Interesse Storico Locale".

Il 30 settembre 1986, con il decreto Instantibus votis della Congregazione per i vescovi, le due sedi di Nardò e di Gallipoli furono unite plena unione e la nuova circoscrizione ecclesiastica ha assunto il nome di Nardò-Gallipoli. Seguirono accese reazioni.

Il 16 luglio 1988 vengono cedute all'arcidiocesi di Otranto le parrocchie delle frazioni di Collemeto, Noha e Santa Barbara del comune di Galatina.

Il 12 luglio 2004 è stato inaugurato il Museo diocesano di Gallipoli, ubicato nella sede dell'ex seminario, realizzato in stile barocco tra il 1651 ed il 1660 su iniziativa dei presuli Serafino Brancone (Branconi) ed Ignazio Savastano, al fine di valorizzare gli innumerevoli reperti, oltre 500, appartenuti alla vecchia diocesi gallipolina. Ossia: cartepeste, busti, calici ed opere pittoriche. Infatti la diocesi pur essendo tra le più piccole della regione risultava essere tra le più ricche. Il progetto dell'istituzione del museo fu del vescovo Aldo Garzia. Completarono l'iniziativa i successori Vittorio Fusco e Domenico Caliandro.

The CSI Forensic Sciences Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the educational, research, and training initiatives in crime scene investigation, law enforcement, and forensic science in general. It operates as a subsidiary of the CSI Academy of Florida whose motto is "Dedicated to Finding the Truth." Likewise, the CSI Forensic Sciences Foundation adheres to a similar fundamental principle – "Evidence Speaks the Truth."
This concept is based on a foundational principle of forensic science, first stated by forensic science pioneer Edmond Locard in the early 1900's, that "every contact leaves a trace." This concept would later become known as Locard's Theory of Exchange and would represent an integral element of crime scene processing and investigation. Paul Leland Kirk – one of the foremost criminologists of his time – further expanded on the principle by stating that,
Wherever he steps, whatever he touches, whatever he leaves, even unconsciously, will serve as a silent witness against him. Not only his fingerprints or his footprints, but his hair, the fibers from his clothes, the glass he breaks, the tool mark he leaves, the paint he scratches, the blood or semen he deposits or collects. All of these and more, bear mute witness against him. This is evidence that does not forget. It is not confused by the excitement of the moment. It is not absent because human witnesses are. It is factual evidence. Physical evidence cannot be wrong, it cannot perjure itself, it cannot be wholly absent. Only human failure to find it, study and understand it, can diminish its value.
Paul Leland Kirk
It is this fundamental principle that drives the initiatives of the CSI Forensic Sciences Foundation. Evidence cannot be wrong; evidence cannot lie. Whatever form it takes, evidence speaks the truth and it is our responsibility as investigators to investigate that truth and use it to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves, to provide a voice to the voiceless, and to bring justice and closure to victims of crime.

Follow KDKA-TV: Facebook | Twitter
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — A familiar face is rejoining the Pittsburgh Penguins.
The Penguins have hired Hall-of-Famer and former general manager Craig Patrick as a pro scout.
The Penguins have hired Hockey Hall-of-Famer Craig Patrick as a pro scout. Patrick, 72, is beginning his second stint with the Penguins organization, having served as GM for 17 seasons from 1989-2006.
Details: https://t.co/tNKsn5vLow pic.twitter.com/XtI50rgycW
— Pittsburgh Penguins (@penguins) November 19, 2018
Patrick was the Penguins' general manager from 1989-2006. During that time, the team won their first two Stanley Cup championships, back-to-back, in 1991 and 1992.
He also drafted Evgeni Malkin in 2004, and Sidney Crosby and Kris Letang in 2005.
In a press release, current Penguins' GM Jim Rutherford said: "I have tremendous respect for Craig for everything he's accomplished in his Hall of Fame hockey career. He always has been a great evaluator of talent and he brings a unique level of expertise to our scouting staff. It's also great to have Craig back here with the Penguins, where he built such a legacy of success. We're excited to add him to our staff."
Patrick, 72, is also known for being the assistant coach of the gold medal-winning 1980 United States "Miracle on Ice" team at the Olympic games in Lake Placid.
He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2001.


No one wants to feel jealous. Jealousy hurts. But why do so many of us find ourselves stuck in it?
One reason may be that we are trying to get free of it in the wrong way.
The first thing to understand about jealousy is that if you suffer from it, it has absolutely nothing to do with how anyone else behaves.
Jealousy is an expression of your insecurity, not an expression of another person's character.
You cannot improve another person's way of feeling about you or acting toward you by reacting with jealously. In fact, the more jealousy you experience the less attractive you will be to the person you feel jealousy toward.
Jealousy is therefore as counter-productive as it is painful.
If trying to control others is not a way that leads us out of jealousy, what is a viable path to the liberation that we desire? Here is a five-step process for overcoming jealousy.
The way to lose jealousy begins with taking complete responsibility for it. Instead of blaming another person for your feelings of jealousy, regard jealousy as your own insecure way of reacting.
Instead of resenting the person who triggers your jealousy, be grateful for the opportunity the situation presents to you. While jealousy hurts, the only way to gain liberation from it is to realize its presence. You cannot change what you are not aware of. By shifting into an attitude of gratitude for the opportunity to liberate yourself from jealousy you may immediately begin feeling at least a little better. Also, your attitude of gratitude for the opportunity to get free will help you to actually find that opportunity.
The next step is to decide to be free of your jealous pattern. What most jealous people do is try to control the person who triggers their jealousy, rather than focusing on improving their own reaction to that person's conduct. Reverse this to be free. Make it your intention to change yourself, to transform your inner response.
Think about what freedom from jealousy feels like. Think about how you want to feel instead. Jealousy is about the fear of loss. So what you want to feel is secure. Instead of worrying about losing the person you love, think about feeling centered in a sturdy inner state of genuine peace, love and joy. Spend some time envisioning yourself feeling so full of peace, love and joy that there is no space within you to feel insecure.
If you feel jealous today it is no doubt a pattern that you have been reinforcing for many years, probably all the way back to early childhood. To lose jealousy will therefore most likely require perseverance. Don't wait for jealousy to strike before you follow these five steps for overcoming jealousy. Practice living in a state of inner peace, joy and love throughout each day, in all situations. Notice whenever anger, anxiety or unhappiness arises in you and resist the urge to start blaming another person or an outside situation for your reaction. Take full responsibility for your internal reaction pattern. Then decide to return to inner peace, love and joy BEFORE you make any effort to influence another person or an outside situation.
This doesn't mean that you have to passively accept however people behave toward you or whatever is going on in your life. It means that BEFORE you try to improve what is going on outside of you, improve what is going on inside of you.
Some worry that if they make the inner change to peace they will lose the motivation to make the outer change. That may happen. But it may not happen. When you look at your situation from a state of inner peace you will experience enhanced clarity of judgment that will help you to better understand what is really going on and what you need to do about it.
If you are not currently suffering with a feeling of jealousy, think of an event in your past when you felt jealous.
Next, think about the feeling of inner peace, love and joy. Take a few gentle, relaxing full breaths, imagining that as you breath in you are breathing in the feeling of inner peace, love and joy. As you breathe out, imagine that you are getting rid of any patterns of jealousy, insecurity or anger that you may have been carrying around.
Repeat Step 3 for ten breaths.
Take this exercise with you in daily life. Whenever you notice even a slight trace of jealousy arising within you toward anyone, go through the exercise to help you to gain and strengthen your inner freedom.
Did you find this post helpful? What situations trigger off your jealousy? Are you dealing with a jealous partner? Please feel welcome to share your questions about jealousy and your experiences with this exercise.

Early Evolution of Cephalopods
Cephalopods are a diverse group of mollusks; cuttlefish, nautiloids, octopuses, and squids are the most well known of its living representatives. The evolutionary history of cephalopods dates back into the Cambrian period nearly 490 million years ago. Since then cephalopods underwent major evolutionary changes and highly diverse groups, such as ammonoids and belemnoids went totally extinct. Today the internally shelled coleoids are most diverse.
The earliest cephalopods had an external shell, like the pearly Nautilus today. Repeatedly this shell was reduced and internalized. During their first climax cephalopods evolved to an extreme diversity of form with long conical shells, screwed, coiled, and pea-like shells ranging from millimeter to several meters in length. Some groups have been very abundant in the ancient seas and played important roles in different marine ecosystems.
My work focuses on cephalopods of the Early Palaeozoic period, comprising the first diversity climax before the advent of the ammonoids and coleoids. The careful taxonomic description of fossil assemblages and its systematic classification is always the basis of my later analysis of their phylogenies and their ecology.
Recent contributions are descriptions of Ordovician fossil assemblages from Baltoscandia, France and Morocco. Together with my colleagues Jakob Vinther and Dirk Fuchs I published a review of the originof the cephalopods and its early evolution.

Ateneo beats La Salle in Game 1 of Women's Volley Finals. No really, they did!
By GoArchers
It's been a while since La Salle last lost a game in the UAAP women's volleyball. Sadly, it had to this one.
Behind a game-high 24 points from rookie Alyssa Valdez and 19 from Fille Cainglet, the Ateneo Lady Eagles pulled off a shocking upset win of the Lady Spikers 23-25, 28-26, 25-23, 25-17 in the opening match of the Season 74 finals.
Ateneo not only ended their almost 5-year losing streak to La Salle, they also gave the Lady Spikers their first "real" defeat since 2010. La Salle had one win reversed last season by a technicality but the last time they lost on the court was in game 2 of the Season 72 finals against UST.
In the first three sets of the match, La Salle led for the most part but Ateneo would always stage a rally towards the end. The Lady Spikers were lucky to escape the first set despite blowing a 23-17 lead. It was all Ateneo come the fourth set as they made sure that there won't be another La Salle comeback similar to their last elimination round match.
The stellar performance of the Lady Eagles today must have sucked the life out of the team. The team's energy and swagger that they have shown all season was clearly missing in this game.
Abigail Marano top scored for the Lady Spikers with 17 points while Michele Gumabao and rookie Victonara Galang added 14 apiece.
The series is now reduced to a best-of-three affair. Game 2 will be played this Saturday.
It was a double setback for La Salle in volleyball as the Green Spikers lost to FEU 25-23 19-25 20-25 24-26 in Game 2 of their Final 4 match-up. La Salle will finish in fourth place for the second straight year. FEU will face UST in the men's division finals.

Ultra-Precise Quantum-Logic Clock Trumps Old Atomic Clock
Latest News and Solutions

Scientists have built a clock which is 37 times more precise than the existing international standard.

Scientists have built a clock which is 37 times more precise than the existing international standard.
The quantum-logic clock, which detects the energy state of a single aluminum ion, keeps time to within a second every 3.7 billion years. The new timekeeper could one day improve GPS or detect the slowing of time predicted by Einstein's theory of general relativity.
"It could it be a real contender for the next frequency standard, or next timekeeper," said physicist Chin-wen (James) Chou of the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, lead author of a study to appear in a forthcoming Physical Review Letters.
Chou's team is one of several racing to build an atomic clock that can replace the current international standard, the cesium fountain clock. The cesium clock loses one second every 100 million years. Chou's is not the first quantum-logic clock, but his uses aluminum and magnesium ions, which makes it twice as precise as its predecessors that used aluminum and beryllium.
To keep time, quantum-logic clocks measure the vibration frequency of UV lasers. Unfortunately, the best lasers we can build veer off their normal frequency by about one tick every hour, Chou said. To keep the laser's timekeeping precise, its vibration must be anchored to something much more stable.
That anchor is the vibration of an electrically charged aluminum atom, which vibrates at 1.1 Petahertz, or 1.1 quadrillion times a second.
The first step in measuring the ion's vibration is to hit it with UV lasers, which are tuned to the charged atom's rate of vibration. The aluminum ion can be in either a low- or high-quantum energy state.
"If the laser frequency is right on the ion frequency, then the ion will change state, but if the laser frequency is off a little bit, then the ion doesn't change state as efficiently," Chou said. "This efficiency is a signal that tells us, this signal is off by so much, and we should steer the frequency so it stays on the frequency of the aluminum ion."
But they can't tune the laser frequency to the aluminum ion state unless they can actually detect that state. To do that, the group couples the aluminum ion to a magnesium ion. A separate set of laser beams shine on the pair. If the aluminum ion changes state, then both ions start to move.
Detecting that motion requires a third set of lasers to focus on the magnesium ion. If the magnesium ion is in motion, it emits a photon of light. Otherwise, it stays dark.
"That's the beauty of it, we can see just one ion emitting light," Chou said.
In a weird twist, the team can't actually tell how many times the clock ticks per second. That's because the definition of a second is currently based on the cesium fountain clock, which simply can't measure the precision of a more precise machine. It works using a similar principle as the aluminum clock, but uses the vibration of a cesium atom to anchor the frequency of a microwave source.
The clock could help resolve questions about the universal physical constants, such as the speed of light in a vacuum, or Planck's constant, an important value in quantum physics.
Physical constants are supposedly fixed over time, but some theories suggest they may vary slightly, he said. "Optical clocks are one of the candidates that might be able to see that really tiny variation over time," he said.
Global positioning devices also rely on extremely precise atomic clocks, so "if we have better and better clocks then we can tell our position, to a better and better precision," Chou said.
And the clocks could also show the effects of general relativity by detecting how much gravity warps time.
There's no plan to adopt the aluminum-ion clock as the formal international standard yet. To do so, the clock ticks need be transmitted around the world. That is normally done with optical cables, but those can only transmit such a stable frequency for around 60 miles, Chou said.

Paying attention to your knees will enable you to enjoy your life to the fullest for longer. While standard wear-and-tear is inevitable since our knees act as shock absorbers for the entire body, they can be kept in good shape by taking some precautionary measures to avert injuries and by doing things that result in hardier knees.
Many people correctly believe that they are as old as their knees. Knee joints tolerate a great deal of stress throughout our lifetime especially since they support our entire body weight. Every step you take puts considerable pressure on your them. Besides, if you factor in the degeneration that occurs if you are a regular long-distance runner or if you are overweight or if you lift heavy weights often as part of your job, your knees are bound to deteriorate faster than other joints.
Aim For A Healthy Weight – Since your knees are responsible for holding up your entire body, it is vital that you do not overburden them. Maintaining a reasonable body mass index (BMI) is the key to good knees. If your knees support way more weight than they can handle, they will become prone to injuries and chronic inflammation.
Get The Right Workout Shoes – Wearing the right shoes can cut down the severity of the impact while exercising can and will help immensely in improving knee health. Cushioned shoes or knee braces can be very beneficial in reducing the pressure on your knees and can protect them from injuries.
Select A Low-Impact Workout – If you have started experiencing some level of knee pain, it is a good idea to give up high-impact activities like running or playing racquetball. Instead, pick up low-impact exercises like swimming, brisk walking or moderate-intensity cycling. Drills that have a low impact on your knees can be just as effective in keeping you fit and helping you lose excess weight as any other workouts.
Give Those High-Heeled Shoes a Pass – Your high heeled shoes might make you feel confident and beautiful, but they are quite harmful to your knees. Shoes with very high, pointed heels heighten the pressure on your knees and can significantly increase the chances of knee injuries. If you do not want to go completely flat, you can at least opt for shoes with moderate heels which are more uniform as opposed to a pair of stilettos.
Do Not Stop Moving – One way to ascertain that you have healthy knees for long is to keep moving. Movement is instrumental in keeping the cartilage in the knee well-oiled. A 30-minute routine that begins and ends with stretching will help your knee stay free from pain and stiffness for years to come.
These initial steps, if taken on time, can prove to be very useful in enhancing knee health and giving you more years of the restriction-free movement.

The big issues

MILESTONES FOR AUSTRALIAN WOMEN
Sometimes it's easy to focus on far we have to go, as opposed to how far we have come.
In this post, we'll take you back in the journey to gender equality in Australia since the United Nations held its first World Conference on Women in Mexico City in 1975.
Its one for all you history buffs and for each and every one of us advocating for the rights of women.
International Women's Year

The United Nations coins International Women's Year, and announces the period from 1976-1985 will be the United Nations Decade for Women.
In Australia, the Whitlam government spends more than $3.3 million over two years on projects and activities to celebrate International Women's Year.
First World Conference on Women
To coincide with International Women's Year, the United Nations convenes its First World Conference on Women in Mexico City.
Elizabeth Reid, who became the first adviser on women's affairs to a head of state when appointed by the Whitlam government in 1973, leads the Australian delegation.
A total of 133 nations are represented at the conference, where a decade-long World Plan of Action is developed for the implementation of policies to advance the rights of women around the world.
Whitlam government introduces no-fault divorce
The Whitlam government makes major changes to marriage law in passing the Family Law Act at the end of 1975.
This legislation creates a "no-fault divorce" doctrine, meaning marriage breakdowns can be dealt with more privately, cheaply and without assigning blame to either party.
Prior to the reform, a divorce could only be obtained if one party proved the other was at fault.
Women and Politics conference held in Canberra

One of the ways Australia involves itself in International Women's Year activities is to host the first Women and Politics conference in Canberra.
During the conference, women's rights are identified as a political issue and the federal government provides funding to further the cause.
First sex discrimination legislation comes into effect
South Australia is the first state to pass sex discrimination legislation, enacting the Sex Discrimination Act at the end of 1975.
The act protects people against sex or marital status discrimination (including de facto relationships) in employment and education, and protects people against being victimised for complaining about discrimination.
Margaret Guilfoyle becomes first woman cabinet minister

In 1975, then-senator Margaret Guilfoyle (now Dame Margaret Guilfoyle) becomes the first woman to be given a federal cabinet portfolio – that of education minister.
Her parliamentary career spanned 16 years and included the positions of social security minister and finance minister, the latter of which made her the first woman to hold an economic portfolio.
First Reclaim the Night rally
The first Australian Reclaim the Night rally takes place, with protesters marching to speak out against the violence experienced by women who walked alone at night.
The event has since become an annual tradition in Australia and around the world, with marches taking place on the last Friday in October.
The range of concerns encompassed by the event has broadened to include all forms of sexual violence, and issues of particular concern to protesters at the time.
Second World Conference on Women
The Second World Conference on Women takes place in Copenhagen, with 145 nations represented.
Delegates review the Action Plan and determine that progress had been made, but specific action is required in the areas of employment, healthcare and education.
Anzac Day arrests

Police arrest 65 women in Canberra during a protest condemning rape in war.
Only days beforehand, ACT chief minister Michael Hodgman had moved to make it an offence to engage in conduct that was likely to give or cause offence to people participating in the Anzac Day parade.
Future G-G plans changes for women's council
PHOTO: This article on a young Quentin Bryce, by Helen Thomas, appeared in the September 5 – 11 edition of the National Times, 1982. (Supplied)
A 39-year-old Queensland lawyer and academic named Quentin Bryce, who would later become our governor-general, is appointed as the convenor of the National Women's Advisory Council.
This article published in the National Times following her appointment described her as "Brisbane's best dresser" and a "superwoman".
But she rejected these labels.
Radical or conservative? I don't think I'm really either, and it's probably part of being a 35-year-old mother of five… Woman are tagged with superwoman images when really they're just exhausted. And they don't talk about it – there really isn't enough plain speaking about it all, about how hard it is.
— Quentin Bryce
Australia signs convention to end discrimination against women
Australia signs the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), described by the United Nations as the "first international treaty to address the fundamental rights of women in politics, health care, education, economics, employment, law, property and marriage and family relations".
Since signing the convention, Australia has created legislation designed to give effect to it, including the Sex Discrimination Act.
Federal Sex Discrimination Act comes into force

The Sex Discrimination Act comes into force across Australia.
The legislation grew out of a private member's bill developed by the then-minister assisting the prime minister on the status of women, Susan Ryan.
It makes gender-based discrimination and sexual harassment illegal and establishes the country's first sex discrimination commissioner, Pamela O'Neill.
Since its introduction, the act has proven to be a cornerstone in the fight for equal opportunity for women, especially in the workplace.
Third World Conference on Women
The Third World Conference on Women takes place in Nairobi, and marks the end of the United Nations Decade for Women.
Representatives from more than 140 countries take part in the conference, where they review the successes and challenges of the past decade and develop a set of forward-looking strategies for the advancement of women.
Joan Child becomes Australia's first female Speaker

During Labor prime minister Bob Hawke's second term, Joan Child becomes Australia's first female Speaker of the House of Representatives.
Also the first female Labor member of the House, Ms Child is the only ALP nominee and unopposed by the Liberal Opposition.
Ms Child resigns from the role in August 1989 and two other women become Speaker in the years that follow — Anna Burke (2012-13) and Bronwyn Bishop (2013-15).
Janine Haines becomes first woman to lead political party

Janine Haines becomes the first female federal parliamentary leader of an Australian political party when she is chosen to succeeded Don Chipp as the Australian Democrats Senate leader.
Following her death in 2004, then-Opposition leader Mark Latham remembered Ms Haines as a respected force in Australian politics.
"She was a very effective politician, the first woman to lead an Australian political party, so an inspiration to a huge number of Australians in that role," he said.
"She was a strongly committed leader of her party and saw their role as much more than an Upper House organisation."
Mary Gaudron appointed as High Court judge
Mary Gaudron becomes Australia's first female High Court judge in 1987.
During an address to the NSW Women's Lawyers Association in 2002, she said "by a process of elimination and with only a slight leap of faith and logic, I am driven to the conclusion that women lawyers are the law's only real hope for the future".
Quentin Bryce appointed Sex Discrimination Commissioner
PHOTO: This article by Bruce McDougall, about the then Sex Discrimination Commissioner Quentin Bryce, appeared in the Daily Telegraph on Saturday, August 6, 1988.
In 1988, Quentin Bryce is appointed as Australia's second Sex Discrimination Commissioner, taking over from Pamela O'Neil.
About six months into the job, in this article in the Daily Telegraph, Ms Bryce described the challenges she faced in the role – from dealing with people who assumed any commissioner must be a man, to fielding distressing complaints about sexual assaults against women in the workplace.
The cases are coming out from under the carpet and they are distressing. It upsets me that women are being touched up in the most overt and degrading ways. The most distressing complaints are from young and vulnerable girls in their first job.
Australia's first female chief minister

Rosemary Follett becomes the Australian Capital Territory's inaugural chief minister and the first woman to become a head of government in an Australian state or territory.

Fourth World Conference on Women and the Beijing Declaration
The Fourth World Conference on Women sees 189 nations become signatories to the Beijing Declaration and its accompanying Platform for Action, "the most progressive blueprint ever" for advocating women's rights according to the United Nations.
The Declaration calls on all nation states to address gender inequality in their countries, and set up a reporting system to review progress every five years.
In an updated foreword, United Nations secretary-general Ban Ki-Moon says: "Twenty years after the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action was adopted… its stature and significance as a roadmap for the achievement of gender equality remains undiminished. This pivotal document continues to guide the global struggle against constraints and obstacles to the empowerment of women around the world".

Politician ejected for breastfeeding
Victorian politician Kirstie Marshall is ejected from the Lower House chamber for breastfeeding her 11-day-old baby.
In an interview with the ABC, she says: "I didn't come here to make a statement or to break rules".
I just didn't really know what the situation was. As I said I didn't come here to make a statement or to break rules and it's really important for me that my job is, as a Parliamentarian, is the most important thing that I'm here. I could have taken, you know, six weeks off and relaxed and been at home, but I wanted to be here so much and as long as everything is working well and in balance, I'll continue to do so.

Fred Rogers: A Model of Confident Humility
By Steve McCloskey, Pastor of Taftsville Chapel Mennonite Fellowship
Steve McCloskey
In a recent sermon, I spoke to my congregation about the relationship between confidence and humility. I expressed that an individual can have a sober view of themselves with confidence in what they are called to do, and act on it faithfully in humility. In other words: you can be simultaneously confident and humble. I was reminded of a great example of this recently when I saw a trailer for a movie that comes out this fall about a former resident of the Upper Valley (the area where our church is located).
It's based on the life of Fred Rogers–star of "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood". He began college at Dartmouth and eventually went on to attend seminary and became an ordained Presbyterian minister. Tom Hanks will be playing the role of Mr. Rogers in this movie based on his life that comes out this November ("A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood") .
As a young child I regularly watched Mr. Rogers. His message was simple: every person is endowed with dignity and worthy of love and respect. He seemed to be immovable on this. From everything I've seen and read about him–this was not just a TV act–this was who he was, he believed it! He was motivated to communicate the intrinsic value of every person; presenting this message to children at a young age through public television. He knew what his message was and he stuck to it for decades.
I read a story of a girl who was blind, she knew Mr Rogers had a pet goldfish but wanted to make sure the fish was being fed, she wrote a letter expressing her concern for the fish. In response, Mr. Rogers would always narrate when he was feeding the fish because of this one girl's concern. He had a famous song called "It's You I Like" but there's a clip– you can look up on YouTube– of him singing a special version of this song to a boy in a wheelchair where he says:
It's you I like,
It's not the things you wear,
It's not your fancy chair–
But it's you I like.
The way you are right now,
The way down deep inside you–
Not the things that hide you,
Not your toys–
They're just beside you.
But it's you I like–
Every part of you,
Your skin, your eyes, your feelings
Whether old or new.
I hope that you'll remember
Even when you're feeling blue
That it's you I like,
It's you yourself,
It's you, it's you I like.
There's an interview with Fred Rogers and Charlie Rose: Rose asked him about his daily routine: Mr Rogers said he begins each morning waking up before 5 AM and spends several hours in quiet time. He said, in the interview, that "in silence comes revelation". And Charlie Rose asked, "And then you begin the business of your day?"
"No", said Mr. Rogers, "Then, after that, I go swimming". Rogers said that it was in the silence that he could reflect on what was most important. Perhaps it is through this time, in silence, each day, through his own self-care, reflecting on what is most essential, that Mr. Rogers had built-up this deep reservoir to appreciate people for who they were–just the way they are. In doing this, Fred Rogers exuded a confident humility.
Similarly, Jesus would often withdrawal from the crowds, find solitude and pray.
It is not selfish of you to make time to care for yourself, in fact it can build the reservoir of love for others. How do you make time for yourself? What practices do you have to care for yourself; both body and soul?

The Commonwealth Utilities Corporation has disconnected the power and water lines of a number of CNMI government departments and agencies due to unpaid bills.
Among them are divisions of the Department of Community and Cultural Affairs, whose personnel were sent home early yesterday noon due to the lack of power and water at their workplace.
The CUC chief financial officer Charles Warren says a disconnection notice had been issued to the the agencies.
Warren said the central government owes CUC nearly 2.5 million US dollars, which reflects delinquent payments for August, September, and October.
He says about 50 accounts were on the disconnection list.

Chapter 2448 - Looking for Traces
Chapter 2448: Looking for Traces
Zhang Xiaohou had several guesses on what the mission was about. He also knew it was confidential and urgent.
However, he did not expect it would involve a Forbidden Curse!
The countdown for a Forbidden Curse. Wouldn't that mean the culprits in the Bohai Sea were so strong that they had to rely on a Forbidden Curse?
Forbidden Curses and ordinary magic were completely different. A Forbidden Curse was at least a hundred times stronger than a Super Spell, and that was only describing the initial damage a Forbidden Curse would cause. Most terrifyingly, a Forbidden Curse would often inflict irrecoverable damage on the surrounding areas and environment.
The power of Forbidden Curses had to be treated with extreme caution. They were usually treated as a last resort when mankind was at stake. The Magic Associations across the five continents and many countries had forbidden every organization, faction, country, and Forbidden Mages to use Forbidden Curses.
"Chief, will you be handling it?" Zhang Xiaohou could not withhold the shock in his heart.
They were going to use the strongest magic in the world! It did not matter what creature they were up against. It was going to perish for sure!
"The Ice Emperor will handle the Forbidden Curse. The Induction has already begun. We now need the coordinates for the Seal," the man said.
"Coordinates for the Seal?" Zhang Xiaohou soon realized why he had been called here.
The Induction of a Forbidden Curse was a massive process. Most Forbidden Mages were unable to complete a Forbidden Curse by themselves.
Forbidden Mages were usually the main Inductors. They needed other Inductors and magic Formations to provide the Forbidden Curse with an enormous amount of energy.
The Forbidden Curse did not involve a mere Star Palace made up of twenty-four hundred and one Stars. They would have to construct an imperial city full of shiny Star Palaces, meaning a lot of Super Mages would be involved!
Zhang Xiaohou was not an Ice Mage. None of his men were outstanding Ice Mages either, which meant his troop was called here for a different job.
"The trickiest part of a Forbidden Curse is its Induction. The whole Bohai Sea will be alerted during the Induction, but we have already made the necessary preparations. We will not allow the sea monsters to interrupt the process.
"After the Induction, the Forbidden Curse will need specific coordinates for its landing point."
The destructive might of a Forbidden Curse was immeasurable. Its power was just too overwhelming due to the Induction performed by a Forbidden Mage with the help of countless Super Mages, Advanced Mages, and Elemental Formations.
The Forbidden Curse had an insane coverage area, too. It might even trigger disastrous events like tsunami, landslides, earthquakes, hail, and volcanic eruptions.
It was difficult to tell how long the Forbidden Curse would last, and what level of Elemental Storm it would trigger and where it would go to.
A Forbidden Curse would also disrupt the stability of space and create a Black Hole. Even as the space was repairing itself, the Black Hole would devour everything within a certain range as it was shrinking.
They had to consider a lot of factors before using a Forbidden Curse, especially since every area of land was utterly precious to mankind. Once a Forbidden Curse was used, the whole place would be cursed and become uninhabitable!
Therefore, the coordinates of the Forbidden Curse's first impact point were crucial due to the uncertainties involved.
The Dragon King Culprits posed a huge threat to the entire coastline of their country. If the coordinates missed the Dragon King Culprits' nest, many of them would survive the Forbidden Curse.
However, if the nest of the Dragon King Culprits was too close to human territory, they would have to compromise and find the coordinates with the perfect balance between the safety of human territory and the damage the Forbidden Curse would inflict on the enemy!
The landing point of the Forbidden Curse! It was a tough mission for Zhang Xiaohou's platoon of Violet Imperial Mages!
"Xiaohou, even the main Inductor couldn't estimate the damage of the Forbidden Curse. Once the countdown ends, the Forbidden Curse will be released. Therefore, you must flee as soon as you find the coordinates."
"I promise I'll finish my mission!"
"I want you to complete the mission and come back safely!" the man ordered him.
"Affirmative, sir!"
Zhang Xiaohou was excited and a little uneasy when he returned to his troop.
It was the highest order he had been given since he joined the army. The safety of all of China was at stake, not to mention they were going to use the strongest magic in the world to resolve it.
He looked at the sea now covered in darkness. Many powerful creatures were hiding in the shadows and under the waves.
Even though Zhang Xiaohou had no idea what they were going up against, the fear in his heart gradually diminished after learning they were backed by a Forbidden Curse.
The stars were still glowing brightly in the sky. People always said the brightest star was the eye of a person who remained at the bottom of one's heart after they had left during one's childhood.
They would see the person's gaze when their heart was as calm as the night sky.
Zhang Xiaohou could only hug his head and cry in the past, but he now had the power to protect an entire sea!
"You should worry more about your own safety first next time," Zhang Xiaohou murmured. He pulled his cap lower and headed for the brightly-lit camp.
The sun had just risen. The cold of the dawn mixed with the sea breeze greeted Zhang Xiaohou.
He washed his face to quickly get rid of his sleepiness and looked at the clock tower on the mountain.
The clock was adjusted to indicate days, meaning a complete cycle of the minute hand was equivalent to a day. A complete cycle of the hour hand would mean twelve days. The Forbidden Curse would take place when all three hands were pointing at twelve.
Only twelve days left until the deadline.
They did not have much time. They could not afford to waste a single second!
"General, we've received the information on the Dragon King Culprits. Should I read it out to everyone?" the Head of the Royal Guards inquired of him.
The Flying Dragon beat its wings and took off into the sky, stirring up huge waves and strong gusts of wind. A group of dragon beasts followed the Flying Dragon and soared into the clouds.
The Bohai Sea's coastline was extremely long. They had to keep searching along it all the way to Dalian.
Their information stated the Dragon King Culprits were residing close to the coastline. They might also be staying on the islands that were close to the mainland.
They could not exclude the swamps and wetlands, either. After all, the Dragon King Culprits were active in other areas than the Bohai Sea. Buildings were collapsing mysteriously in the East China Sea and South China Sea too, including the Magic City!
"Let's go to Luning County first," Zhang Xiaohou said after reading the information.
"Are we finally going after the creatures that are keeping the people around the Bohai Sea in constant fear? Humph, we'll soon learn their secrets!" Captain Tian declared.
The Dragon King Culprits would definitely have left some clues behind after destroying so many buildings in Luning County. That being said, it was not going to be easy to look for the clues!


Lost his physical battle with Demba Ba who started up top for the Blues. In possession, Sakho was sloppy, and he looked clumsy when carrying the ball into midfield.
Stifled Chelsea offensively, but when he got in positive attacking areas, he didn't look like he had the pace or the trickery to actually create a chance.
In the first 45 minutes, Gerrard was the best player on the pitch, but then it all went wrong. Just before half-time, the skipper slipped and gave the ball to Demba Ba, who went and scored. In the second-half, he looked like he was desperate to make up for the error, and had way too many shots from distance. If his mistake costs the Reds the title, it would be absolutely heartbreaking for everyone at the club.

Ha yeah. The person has made a few bikes like that. I snatched some photos of them off Ebay links a year or two ago. I like the rear brake set up on this one. Two calipers with fluid flowing from the bleed port of the first into the normal connection at the second.
The work of some sort of tortured genius!
I'll see if I can find the other bikes….

5 cases of a variant of the coronavirus in the United Kingdom found in Minnesota: employees
Minnesota health officials over the weekend identified five cases of a coronavirus variant first identified in the UK, adding to the growing list of states that have confirmed cases of mutation and further concerns that the variant may already be widespread across the country. .
The UK variant, known as B.1.1.7, is "identified by genomic sequencing in positive samples from five residents of four different counties in the Twin Cities metro area," Minnesota Department of Health officials said in a news release Saturday. , who noted that four of the cases were identified by public health officials, while the fifth was identified by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
None of the cases, aged 1
5 to 37, have been hospitalized, the state health department said. The onset of the disease is in mid and late December, from December 16 to December 31, according to the news release.
At least two of the cases have recently traveled abroad, although it is not clear where. One case had no recent travel, while the others had an "unknown" travel history, state health officials said.

Epidemiologists from the health department "are conducting repeated interviews about the cases to gather more information about how they were probably exposed and who their close contacts were. This investigation is ongoing," officials said.
The B.1.1.7 mutation was first discovered in the UK a few weeks ago, but has since appeared in several US states, including Colorado, where it was first identified in the country, as well as in New York, California and Florida. , Georgia and Pennsylvania, among others.
Last week, the CDC said more than 50 cases of a mutated coronavirus strain had been identified in the United States.

The strain is thought to be more portable than COVID-19. At the time, however, experts seemed confident that existing coronavirus vaccines would work against the option.
Minnesota epidemiologist Ruth Linfield said in a statement that officials "expect to find the virus. [variant]"in the country.
"Knowing he's here now doesn't change our current public health recommendations," she added.
"Although it is thought to spread more easily from one person to another, it has not been found to cause a more serious illness," Linfield continued. "With RNA viruses, such as SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, new, more successful strains are not unexpectedly emerging."

"This virus really makes it difficult for people to know if they or the person next to them is infected – whether this strain or another strain – so we all have to do our part to protect ourselves and each other," added Minnesota, director of infectious diseases Kris Ehresmann disease, in a statement.
So far, employees at Pfizer and BioNTech, companies whose candidate for the COVID-19 vaccine has proven to be very effective in late-stage clinical trials and the first device to receive urgent approval from the US Food and Drug Administration, have expressed confidence in its ability to protect from the load, while advertising the flexibility of the technology if tweaking is to be done.
