When I excitedly told a colleague known to be into punk music that Blondie was coming to Israel, I thought he was going to gob me in the face.
By DAVID BRINN
When I excitedly told a colleague, known to be into Buzzcocks/Clash/Joy Division seminal punk music, that Blondie was coming to Israel, I thought he was going to gob me in the face. He turned up his nose and sneered, "They're not punk." Fair enough. But neither are the New York new wave veterans the disco ducks that such hit singles as "Heart of Glass" and "Call Me" might indicate to casual listeners. The group emerged out of the same CBGB's underground scene that spawned such punk heroes as The Ramones, Television and Patti Smith, and their first three albums were chock-full of sinewy power pop topped by the classic girl group vocals of the unsinkable Debbie Harry. Blondie's drummer Clem Burke, talking to Billboard from Massachusetts, where the band is in the midst of a tour commemorating the 30th anniversary of their breakthrough album Parallel Lines, said that he feels proud to have learned the rock and roll ropes in such a dynamic environment as 1976-77 New York. "It was more of a bohemian atmosphere than a punk one. It was more a workshop, where everyone was able to learn to make music in public. It was trial and error, really," he said. Burke added that a strong bond formed between all the bands who used to share stages and equipment. "Last night, The New York Dolls opened up for us. Those guys [who will be opening up for Morrissey in Tel Aviv on July 29] were our heroes. When we run into friends from those days, it's like seeing someone who you went to high school with. Hanging with David (Johansen) and Syl (Sylvain) was great, and we talked about old times and who survived and who didn't. "But in general Chris (Stein), Debbie and I don't really reminisce about the old days. But we're happy living in the here and now." Blondie performs in the Ra'anana Amphitheater on July 3rd with other late '70s punk survivors The Stranglers. Show's called for 7 p.m. with tickets at NIS 250, to order call *5000.

← Roseanne's back. Are you watching?
Over the course of the past few years , I've written and have actively advocated for the authentic integration of cross curricular portfolio design; not solely curating learning artefacts but building and sustaining a holistic digital presence including digital portfolios that showcase student reflective voice, artefacts of learning and highlighting a sense of who they are as an individual (hobbies, interests, etc.). Along with a portfolio , the leveraging of social media applications such as Twitter as an epicentre for connectivity, outreach and the sharing of an individual portfolio (and brand) is paramount. Recognizing social media as a new resume provides learners with a self-directed experiential discourse with the potential to support resiliency in asking for feedback , next steps and then applying such notes where, applicable .
Imagine the excitement you had as young learner when you brought home work from school and it was put on the fridge for display – your work being showcased. In the early years we readily celebrate the skills that go along with the work and the overall achievement (the artifact). We celebrate student learning, but later on in school life, the focus turns to marks, content, quizzes, tests and less about the artifact that is an example of students showing what they know. Where is the student in this? The web is the new fridge and can open many opportunities for students to connect and potentially create experiential opportunities (intentionally or by accident). Sharing online is not about celebrity but rather possible connectivity; showcasing, reaching out to like-minded people, asking for feedback etc.
Now, coming from me, this means little. With a film and digital media background I have a deep connection to the notion of "exhibition" and the need to be your own PR firm. So, take it from two students who have shown a commitment to leveraging social media within a professional discourse; activating their entrepreneurial spirit to not just wait for doors to open but to create their own. Its within the portfolio and reflection that students can find the "why" to their learning and how they learn.
The video below highlights two students who have participated in a Gr. 9 STEM Portfolio Camp that I developed and have been moderating for three years. This camp, intentionally scaffolds the principles of the Ministry of Ontario's Creating Pathways to Success but also enriches the reflective portfolio experience by nurturing students to harness transferable digital skills to show learning across all subjects, effectively communicate and create a positive online brand.
It's only two-minutes long – worth the watch.
Also, speaking to transferable skills, students must be able to leverage digital tools to communicate in a way that is accessible, easy to share and extends their ideas. Here's a great example of how transferable digital skills can live beyond a tech-centered learning environment.
The following video was produced by Gr. 10 student Jimmy Huynh who not only has a enriched digital footprint but has used digital video outside of the tech classroom; in other courses of study and in extra curricular life.
Check out his video below.

What better beginning to a day than a Radio channel which plays old old favorites all morning. Including songs which you had all but forgotten.
Couple that with an easy to read newspaper and a perfect cup of coffee. Followed by toast with butter, fried egg (oh! for a bit o bacon) and Irish coffee to top it all off.
While sending messages to all and sundry about the upcoming year. Afterall, this is the day to be BAD. before the new year and 'turning over a new leaf' starts. Sigh. Even if it is theoretical, still, sigh.
Not too much, it being office day!

Chicharito voted MLS Player of the Week for Week 1
No surprise on this one.
By Alicia Rodriguez Apr 21, 2021, 7:22am PDT
Share All sharing options for: Chicharito voted MLS Player of the Week for Week 1
The LA Galaxy had just one MLS Player of the Week award in 2020, but they have all of the Player of the Week awards so far for the 2021 season...which is just one week old.
No worries, as Chicharito was voted MLS Player of the Week for Week 1 of the 2021 season, after his two-goal performance in a comeback 3-2 win on the road against Inter Miami gave the Galaxy a rousing opening to the Greg Vanney era on Sunday.
INSTANT CLASSIC.
Watch the highlights from a wild one in Miami pic.twitter.com/RmTJTYpGNy
— LA Galaxy (@LAGalaxy) April 18, 2021
Chicharito's brace on Sunday matched his entire goal output in 2020 for the Galaxy, so at this rate, he's on pace to score somewhere around 68 goals this season.
But seriously though, this was a vintage Chicharito performance and he played a big role in the comeback win. If this helps unlock his potential and gets him on track to be a regular scorer, then the Galaxy will be much better already.
Congrats to Chicharito and hopefully this is just the first of many POTW awards for the Galaxy this season.


Ever since the Arab Spring and the overthrow of the Hosni Mubarak regime, Egypt has had a rather fluctuant and controversial political relationship with the International Criminal Court (ICC). Today, that relationship took yet another turn.
A communication seeking to accept the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court ("ICC" or the "Court") over Egypt has been dismissed as not presented on behalf of the concerned State. On 13 December 2013, lawyers acting on behalf of, amongst others, the Freedom and Justice Party (the "Petitioners") lodged a communication with the ICC Registrar seeking to accept the exercise of the ICC's jurisdiction pursuant to article 12(3) of the Rome Statute with respect to alleged crimes committed on the territory of the State of Egypt since 1 June 2013.
Upon receiving the communication, as per the established internal procedures, the Registry verified with the Egyptian authorities whether or not such a communication was transmitted on behalf of the State of Egypt, as a result of which, the Registrar did not receive a positive confirmation.
The Registrar further transmitted the communication in reference to the ICC Prosecutor and consulted with her on this matter. After a careful assessment, the Registrar informed the Petitioners that the communication received cannot be treated as a declaration accepting the exercise of the ICC's jurisdiction pursuant to article 12(3) of the Rome Statute given that they lacked the requisite authority under international law to act on behalf of the State of Egypt for the purpose of the Rome Statute. This assessment should in no way be construed as a determination on the nature of any alleged crime committed in Egypt or on the merits of any evidence presented.
In other words, the Court decided that it could not accept the request to investigate alleged crimes because it did not come from the ruling government in Egypt. To ascertain this, the Registrar asked the government that took power from Morsi whether the Morsi government was the rightful governing authority in Egypt. It seems rather self-evident that they would get the answer they did: that the request to investigate crimes did not come from them.
Notably, the Court's decision came just four months after the initial request was made. This seems to indicate a greater degree of efficiency in dealing with difficult decisions which could have significant political ramifications. It is certainly a massive improvement from the frustrating tardiness of previous decisions – such as former Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo taking two years to decide not to open an investigation into Palestine.
The Court's decision not to pursue any further investigation does not necessarily represent the end of the ICC-Egypt relationship. Multiple authorities in Cairo have previously intimated that the country was preparing to join the ICC (see here and here). To date that hasn't transpired.
The Court's statement stressed that its dismissal of the request to accept jurisdiction in Egypt did not mean that crimes did not occur or that they do not merit further investigation. But if these alleged atrocities are ever to be investigated by the Court, the best way forward would be for Egypt to (finally) ratify the Rome Statute and become a member of the ICC.

Thanks a lot, M. Mark Kersten. It is not my intention to defend Ocampo(bcse he is so smart to defend himself) but the issue was a bit more complicated.Recognition of statehood(in the case of Palestine) is more complicated that the mere recognition of government, as far as legal and political implications are concerned.
ICC is the last hope of the innocent victims from around the world. If it closes its doors on the Rohingaya victims from Myanmar; Palestinians Refugee victims ousted from their ancestral homes & killed in refugee camps; Tamils victims massacred in Sri Lanka; Political victims being hanged & killed in Bangladesh; Pakistan; If it tightly closes its doors on Syrians, Libyans, Egyptians, Iranians and other victims moaning for justice around the globe; what is the use of this body—as it makes ICC a dead body for those innocent victims. Palestinians were refused justice on the ground they do not have a state; a legitimate state; a cruelty by the present world order that they do not have a state; a severer cruelty that they will not be given justice & they can be massacred with complete impunity to the killers; so are elsewhere. The ICC authorities are killing the very purpose of establishing the ICC. It should be incorporated in human rights charter to have elected police chief; elected judge; elected district attorney; jury system; elected councillors; elected mayors; elected fire chief; elected chief education; elected chief health; elected tax commissioner; elected chief environment @ local level & violation be declared a crime cognizable by the ICC…….heads of states & governments be banned from traveling freely if they do not give these rights to every 1,000,000/- people or more. And if any of these elected police chief does not protect the life; or other elected heads fail in doing justice with their duty; they must be subject to ICC jurisdiction.
Every murder of a human being unpunished by a state must be subject to the jurisdiction of the ICC to conduct inquiry, investigate, prosecute and punish the perpetrator(s). Since 1995 I have been a supporter of the ICC @ the Hague but my dreams are burning in my eyes.
ICC PLEASE DO JUSTICE WITH ALL AND DONOT KILL JUSTICE @ THE ALTER OF POLITICS.
@Bernard – I agree that recognition of statehood versus recognition of legitimate government are not equal endeavours. I agree with the former Prosecutor's ultimate decision on Palestine insofar as the Court was not in a position to determine its statehood. However, I agree with critics who have criticized how long it too the Prosecutor to ultimately come to that conclusion. As far as I know, there has never been a justification for it.

Womack v. Banner Bakery, Inc.
Rocky J. WOMACK, by his guardian ad litem, Arthur Womack, and Arthur Womack, Appellants,
BANNER BAKERY, Inc., a corporation, bankrupt, and Albert B. Colby, Trustee of Banner Bakery, Inc., a corporation, bankrupt, and Kalman Dorshkind, Appellees.
[80 Ariz. 354] Minne & Sorenson, and Robert H. Allen, Phoenix, for appellants.
Struckmeyer, Whitney & Perry, Phoenix, for appellees.
PATTERSON, Superior Court Judge.
An action was initiated by Arthur Womack, as guardian ad litem of his son, Rocky J. Womack, a child of the age of three and one-half years, and Arthur Womack, individually, against Banner Bakery, Inc., a corporation, and Kalman Dorshkind for injury sustained by the said minor. On the afternoon of February 25, 1952, the said minor was struck by an International panel truck driven by defendant Kalman Dorshkind who was employed as a salesman by defendant Banner Bakery, Inc., and was traveling his usual sales route delivering Banner products at the time the accident occurred across the street from the child's home which was situated on the southeast corner of the intersection of North 37th Avenue and West Fillmore Street in Phoenix, Arizona. The child, together with other small children, was playing in the front yard of the Womack home immediately prior to the accident. As Dorshkind proceeded south on 37th Avenue, there was nothing to obstruct his view of the street except a car facing north parked on the east side of 37th Avenue adjacent to the Womack home.
Other than Rocky's four-year-old playmates, Dorshkind was the only one who saw the accident. According to his testimony, he was 'hugging' the right hand side of the road as he approached the place of the accident and the speed of his truck was ten to twelve miles per hour. Rocky ran out from the yard on the west side of the Womack home into and across the road in front of the truck. Immediately before the collision Dorshkind swerved the truck to the left, a distance of about three feet from the right hand side of the road and struck Rocky with the right front fender. Rocky suffered severe injuries and contends that the injuries are permanent. His father incurred substantial medical expenses.
Judgment was entered on verdict in favor of defendants. Plaintiffs appeal from this judgment and from order denying their motion for new trial.
Plaintiffs contend that the trial court erred in permitting Herbert H. Herman, a former highway patrolman, who investigated the accident but who was not an eyewitness, to give his opinion as to the cause of the accident based almost entirely upon statements made by Dorshkind after the accident. The testimony of the highway patrolman discloses that he had no distinct and independent recollection of what transpired on the day he made his investigation until after he examined a copy of his official report, which was given to him on the witness stand. He was then able to relate facts revealed to him by the driver of the truck and some of the physical facts he observed. The record discloses the following proceedings:
[80 Ariz. 355] 'Mr. Struckmeyer:
'Q. Does this refresh your memory as to what you determined the case was at that time? A. The best theory that I could evolve, yes. It is shown here on this.
'Q. And you now have a recollection of that made in February of 1952, do you? A. Yes, I remember the incident quite well.
'Q. And what did you then reason as the best that you could determine as to the cause of the accident at that time?
'Mr. Sorrenson: Object, if your Honor please, the question calls for hearsay.
'The Court: Objection sustained, to the form of a question.
'Mr. Struckmeyer: Now, you have-what did you determine if you did not determine as to the cause of the accident in 1952, in February of 1952?
'Mr. Sorenson: If the Court please, we object to it on the ground that question has been asked and he answered he was unable to ...

Driving Factor
Rising Number of Road Accidents Worldwide to Accelerate Growth
One of the leading factors propelling the connected car market growth is the rising number of road traffic accidents around the globe. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), road traffic crashes kill approximately 1.35 million people worldwide every year. Furthermore, between 20 million and 50 million people suffer non-fatal injuries from road accidents, with several accident victims getting afflicted with a temporary or permanent disability. The most common causes of road accidents, the WHO highlights, include driving under the influence, speeding, distracted driving, and unsafe vehicles. Connected cars have the potential to address all these issues as these vehicles operate on real-time data acquired from various sensors attached to the cars. For example, IoT-enabled cars gather real-time traffic and crash data, alerting drivers to changes in surrounding traffic conditions, road hazards, and upcoming obstructions such as pedestrians and cyclists. Smart technologies enhance the safety quotient of a vehicle and can thus reduce the probability of road accidents.
Growing Demand for Advanced Automotive Technologies to Boost the Asia Pacific Market
Asia Pacific dominated the connected car market share in 2019 with market size of USD 8.37 billion on account of the rising preference for high-end, advanced automotive technologies in the region. This evolving dimension in the automotive industry in the Asia Pacific is underpinned by the increasing level of disposable incomes among buyers, which is enabling them to demand enhanced safety and infotainment features in cars. In Europe, major automakers such as BMW and Volkswagen are partnering with automotive technology specialists to equip their cars with sophisticated safety features. The market in North America, on the other hand, is set to benefit from the rapid adoption of next-gen connectivity technologies such as 5G by carmakers in the region.

One of my favorite chores is vacuuming because of the instant gratification of seeing all the dirt on my floor go away just like that. I get the same gratification when I do quick DIY projects around my house that I know are saving my family money.
Composting is a great way keep kitchen scraps out of the garbage and create organic material to fertilize your garden. The problem is, most compost receptacles you'll find sell for at least $20…for a bucket that holds food that's gone bad.
Instead, you can make your own inexpensive kitchen compost bucket in a matter of minutes with a few simple tools and an old coffee can. See the tutorial here.
Speaking of coffee … When I started drinking coffee a few years ago, I quickly realized what an expensive habit it could be, especially because I loved lattes. At an average of $3.75 per latte where I live, I learned that I needed to stop drinking them (I failed miserably) or find a much cheaper alternative.
Enter the French Toast Latte. This yummy drink can be made at home with no special equipment and contains only coffee, milk, honey and cinnamon (you could also use this pumpkin pie spice instead), which is much healthier than syrups at most coffee shops. Best of all? You can keep your $3.75. Here's the recipe.
Over the years, I've found that by switching to cloth napkins, I've been able to save a whole lot of money and I don't even miss the disposable alternative.
Making cloth napkins is a simple, fast project that can literally save you money for the rest of your life. Here's a great tutorial.
Have you noticed that you usually have to pay more to buy products that don't have a lot of harmful chemicals added to them? The same is true with laundry detergent. Thankfully, you can make your own laundry detergent pretty easily. You can find our recipe here.
I was really intimidated by the idea of making yogurt for a long time but finally gave it a try after my friend insisted it really was easy. And it was!
Best of all, it saves us a lot of money because my kids love their yogurt. And because I love how much they enjoy this nutrient-dense fermented food (I wish I could say the same about other foods), I'm happy to give it to them frequently. Here's our recipe.
One of the first natural DIY projects I made was a cleaning spray. After reading about all of the harmful chemicals in commercial cleaners (and remembering the time my husband stopped me from mixing bleach and ammonia), I knew I wanted a safer alternative.
DIY cleaning spray is super easy to make and just takes a few minutes. Here's a simple recipe.
I started dreaming about having a laundry line shortly after I started on my DIY natural journey. Yes, you read that right. I really wanted a laundry line. Not only do they save money when it comes to utilities, but they help your clothing budget because your clothes aren't getting beat up in the dryer.
Laundry lines can also be put up rather quickly, whether you have to hang one up in your bathroom or garage (as I did before I got a real one) or can set one up outside. See our laundry line recommendations here, here, and here.
What quick projects have saved you the most money?
I've been collecting my produce scraps / egg shells & the like in a icecream bucket. When it's full I've transfered it to an empty garbage can (outside) w/cover. I plan to do this over winter. Can I transfer this to a hole in the spring and begin a "compost pit" or must I build a "bin"? I intend to start a garden next year. Thank-you for your advice.
Purchase men,s hankies at the 99cent store.
Three to a package, snow white . They make wonderful napkins even for a fancy dinner party.
Really appreciate these posts! Speaking of clotheslines, I have not used a dryer (other than for bulky items, on rare occasions), for 20 years. I have two drying racks, and I have put a couple of extra shower-curtain rods over my tub; I hang many items to dry, and then I can simply move them to the closet, since they are already on hangers. I even dry heavier items, like jeans and small rugs, by hanging on my balcony rail, since I live in a second floor apartment. I'll usually put a couple of clothespins on these outdoor-dried items, on windy days; haven't lost any items, yet!

AUSTIN AMERICAN-STATESMAN. The Austin American-Statesman, in 1994 the only daily newspaper in Austin, Travis County, traces its origins back to the Democratic Statesman, which began publication every three weeks beginning in July 1871. The paper began as a semiofficial organ of the state executive committee of the Democratic party and was the only major Democratic newspaper in Texas at that time. It advocated "straight out Jacksonian Democracy" during the Reconstruction period of Republican control of the state. The paper was prominent in the election campaign of 1873, which resulted in the defeat of the Republican regime in Texas. In 1873 the paper began daily morning publication, and from 1880 to 1889 the publishers were John Cardwell and a Mr. Morris. In 1914 the Democratic Statesman took over the Austin Tribune (founded 1889), a competitor that in 1904 had absorbed a smaller local newspaper called the Austin Daily News. The newly consolidated paper began to publish each afternoon as the Austin Statesman and Tribune. In 1916 this paper changed its name to the Evening Statesman to reflect a new time of publication.
The first issue of the Austin American, published daily including Sunday, was issued on May 31, 1914, under the direction of Henry Hulme Sevier. In 1919 Charles E. Marsh and E. S. Fentress bought the American, and in December 1924, the Austin Evening Statesman, by then one of the oldest dailies in Texas. At this juncture the two papers were merged into one company, but were published as independent newspapers. The American remained the morning paper and the Statesman an afternoon paper, but the Sunday morning issue of the American was renamed the Sunday American-Statesman. Early in 1948 all of the Marsh-Fentress newspapers became a part of Newspapers Incorporated. The American joined the Associated Press, subscribed to the daily wire services of the United Press International News Service, and acquired comics and other news features on an independent basis from NEA, the Chicago Tribune, and other syndicates.
In November 1973 the Austin American and the Austin Statesman combined to become an all-day newspaper issued in four daily editions as the Austin American-Statesman. In 1976 Cox Enterprises purchased the Austin American-Statesman, and in April 1987, the paper switched from all-day publication to morning editions only. Its circulation reached 180,345 by 1991, by which time the paper was being published by Roger Kintzel.

Alcohol use and burden for 195 countries and territories, 1990-2016: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016
06 September 2018 In General Health
BACKGROUND: Alcohol use is a leading risk factor for death and disability, but its overall association with health remains complex given the possible protective effects of moderate alcohol consumption on some conditions. With our comprehensive approach to health accounting within the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2016, we generated improved estimates of alcohol use and alcohol-attributable deaths and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) for 195 locations from 1990 to 2016, for both sexes and for 5-year age groups between the ages of 15 years and 95 years and older.
METHODS: Using 694 data sources of individual and population-level alcohol consumption, along with 592 prospective and retrospective studies on the risk of alcohol use, we produced estimates of the prevalence of current drinking, abstention, the distribution of alcohol consumption among current drinkers in standard drinks daily (defined as 10 g of pure ethyl alcohol), and alcohol-attributable deaths and DALYs. We made several methodological improvements compared with previous estimates: first, we adjusted alcohol sales estimates to take into account tourist and unrecorded consumption; second, we did a new meta-analysis of relative risks for 23 health outcomes associated with alcohol use; and third, we developed a new method to quantify the level of alcohol consumption that minimises the overall risk to individual health.
FINDINGS: Globally, alcohol use was the seventh leading risk factor for both deaths and DALYs in 2016, accounting for 2·2% (95% uncertainty interval [UI] 1·5-3·0) of age-standardised female deaths and 6·8% (5·8-8·0) of age-standardised male deaths. Among the population aged 15-49 years, alcohol use was the leading risk factor globally in 2016, with 3·8% (95% UI 3·2-4·3) of female deaths and 12·2% (10·8-13·6) of male deaths attributable to alcohol use. For the population aged 15-49 years, female attributable DALYs were 2·3% (95% UI 2·0-2·6) and male attributable DALYs were 8·9% (7·8-9·9). The three leading causes of attributable deaths in this age group were tuberculosis (1·4% [95% UI 1·0-1·7] of total deaths), road injuries (1·2% [0·7-1·9]), and self-harm (1·1% [0·6-1·5]). For populations aged 50 years and older, cancers accounted for a large proportion of total alcohol-attributable deaths in 2016, constituting 27·1% (95% UI 21·2-33·3) of total alcohol-attributable female deaths and 18·9% (15·3-22·6) of male deaths. The level of alcohol consumption that minimised harm across health outcomes was zero (95% UI 0·0-0·8) standard drinks per week.
INTERPRETATION: Alcohol use is a leading risk factor for global disease burden and causes substantial health loss. We found that the risk of all-cause mortality, and of cancers specifically, rises with increasing levels of consumption, and the level of consumption that minimises health loss is zero. These results suggest that alcohol control policies might need to be revised worldwide, refocusing on efforts to lower overall population-level consumption.
Alcohol intake in relation to non-fatal and fatal coronary heart disease and stroke: EPIC-CVD case-cohort study
27 July 2018 In Cardiovascular System
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between alcohol consumption (at baseline and over lifetime) and non-fatal and fatal coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke.
DESIGN: Multicentre case-cohort study.
SETTING: A study of cardiovascular disease (CVD) determinants within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and nutrition cohort (EPIC-CVD) from eight European countries.
PARTICIPANTS: 32 549 participants without baseline CVD, comprised of incident CVD cases and a subcohort for comparison.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Non-fatal and fatal CHD and stroke (including ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke).
RESULTS: There were 9307 non-fatal CHD events, 1699 fatal CHD, 5855 non-fatal stroke, and 733 fatal stroke. Baseline alcohol intake was inversely associated with non-fatal CHD, with a hazard ratio of 0.94 (95% confidence interval 0.92 to 0.96) per 12 g/day higher intake. There was a J shaped association between baseline alcohol intake and risk of fatal CHD. The hazard ratios were 0.83 (0.70 to 0.98), 0.65 (0.53 to 0.81), and 0.82 (0.65 to 1.03) for categories 5.0-14.9 g/day, 15.0-29.9 g/day, and 30.0-59.9 g/day of total alcohol intake, respectively, compared with 0.1-4.9 g/day. In contrast, hazard ratios for non-fatal and fatal stroke risk were 1.04 (1.02 to 1.07), and 1.05 (0.98 to 1.13) per 12 g/day increase in baseline alcohol intake, respectively, including broadly similar findings for ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke. Associations with cardiovascular outcomes were broadly similar with average lifetime alcohol consumption as for baseline alcohol intake, and across the eight countries studied. There was no strong evidence for interactions of alcohol consumption with smoking status on the risk of CVD events.
CONCLUSIONS: Alcohol intake was inversely associated with non-fatal CHD risk but positively associated with the risk of different stroke subtypes. This highlights the opposing associations of alcohol intake with different CVD types and strengthens the evidence for policies to reduce alcohol consumption.
The association of lifetime alcohol use with mortality and cancer risk in older adults: A cohort study
27 July 2018 In Cancer
BACKGROUND: While current research is largely consistent as to the harms of heavy drinking in terms of both cancer incidence and mortality, there are disparate messages regarding the safety of light-moderate alcohol consumption, which may confuse public health messages. We aimed to evaluate the association between average lifetime alcohol intakes and risk of both cancer incidence and mortality. METHODS AND FINDINGS: We report a population-based cohort study using data from 99,654 adults (68.7% female), aged 55-74 years, participating in the U.S. Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian (PLCO) Cancer Screening Trial. Cox proportional hazards models assessed the risk of overall and cause-specific mortality, cancer incidence (excluding nonmelanoma skin cancer), and combined risk of cancer and death across categories of self-reported average lifetime alcohol intakes, with adjustment for potential confounders. During 836,740 person-years of follow-up (median 8.9 years), 9,599 deaths and 12,763 primary cancers occurred. Positive linear associations were observed between lifetime alcohol consumption and cancer-related mortality and total cancer incidence. J-shaped associations were observed between average lifetime alcohol consumption and overall mortality, cardiovascular-related mortality, and combined risk of death or cancer. In comparison to lifetime light alcohol drinkers (1-3 drinks per week), lifetime never or infrequent drinkers (
Alcohol intake and gastric cancer: Meta-analyses of published data versus individual participant data pooled analyses (StoP Project)
BACKGROUND: Individual participant data pooled analyses allow access to non-published data and statistical reanalyses based on more homogeneous criteria than meta-analyses based on systematic reviews. We quantified the impact of publication-related biases and heterogeneity in data analysis and presentation in summary estimates of the association between alcohol drinking and gastric cancer.
METHODS: We compared estimates obtained from conventional meta-analyses, using only data available in published reports from studies that take part in the Stomach Cancer Pooling (StoP) Project, with individual participant data pooled analyses including the same studies.
RESULTS: A total of 22 studies from the StoP Project assessed the relation between alcohol intake and gastric cancer, 19 had specific data for levels of consumption and 18 according to cancer location; published reports addressing these associations were available from 18, 5 and 5 studies, respectively. The summary odds ratios [OR, (95%CI)] estimate obtained with published data for drinkers vs. non-drinkers was 10% higher than the one obtained with individual StoP data [18 vs. 22 studies: 1.21 (1.07-1.36) vs. 1.10 (0.99-1.23)] and more heterogeneous (I(2): 63.6% vs 54.4%). In general, published data yielded less precise summary estimates (standard errors up to 2.6 times higher). Funnel plot analysis suggested publication bias.
CONCLUSION: Meta-analyses of the association between alcohol drinking and gastric cancer tended to overestimate the magnitude of the effects, possibly due to publication bias. Additionally, individual participant data pooled analyses yielded more precise estimates for different levels of exposure or cancer subtypes.


It's the last long weekend of summer, and it's so bittersweet! I'm happy the kids are going back to school next week, but I'm sad too. We've had such a fun summer, and what's made it the most memorable summer ever has definitely been Our DIY Camper. I'm SO glad that we bought what looked like a piece of junk, and put lots of elbow grease into it to turn it into a comfy and cute camper for our little family. All of the blood, sweat and tears were worth it! Today, I want to give you a full photo & video tour of Our DIY Camper including a list of what we did and links to our materials sources. I hope you find this fun and helpful in case you want to do a camper renovation of your own!
You can read more about the state of it when we purchased it in this blog post. There's also a "before" video tour! It's a 1993 Vanguard 5th wheel that had some water damage and a really dated interior that we purchased off Kijiji for $1000 CDN.
It looks a lot different, doesn't it?! I'm so happy with how it's turned out!
I had a lot of fun styling it and staging it for this tour, but if you want to see how it fairs during a real life camping trip, you can catch glimpses of it in this video of our camping trip to Whitecourt a couple of weeks ago.
First off, my husband Sean ripped off the entire back (kitchen) wall of the camper along with the floor in the back. There was extensive water damage in that area, so he replaced the entire thing with new wood and resealed the exterior. We managed to keep the kitchen cabinets intact, which was a miracle!
Next was all the painting. For me, this was the most labour intensive and frustrating job. The camper is small, but there are so many cupboard doors and nooks and crannies… it took a really long time! I think this step made the biggest difference in the look of the camper, though.
I painted the ceiling first, and then I painted the walls. I used leftover white latex paint I had in storage for everything. Finally, I removed all of the cabinet doors and painted the doors and the cabinets. I primed those first with an oil based primer, then I painted them with a latex paint, then I sealed them with Varathane. You can read more details on my camper cabinet paint job right here in the kitchen makeover blog post. The cabinets all got new, modern looking pulls which updated the look of the camper instantly!
I filled any holes in the cabinets (that were previously filled with fabric) with some decorative aluminum I spray painted.
Spray paint also came in handy to give all of the hooks, door knobs, table legs, and cabinet hinges in the camper a low budget makeover. Everything was originally a bright brass, and I spray painted them an oil rubbed bronze.
Next, I created a couple of faux barn wood feature walls with some inexpensive wallpaper. I made the mistake of putting one up without priming the wall behind it first, and soon learned that you need to prime a camper wall before you paper it! Another helpful tool is a dehumidifier when you're renovating an RV – it can get so humid that things like wallpaper and paint can take forever to dry.
We put a new, comfy mattress in the "master bedroom", and I sewed a little curtain for it.
To update the floors, I laid some wood-look vinyl plank right over the old linoleum. It was difficult to cut around lots of the angles, but I think the overall look is nice!
Some peel-and-stick tile on the walls in the kitchen give it a bright, modern look and I've been really happy with how this tile has held up this summer! I used a couple of hanging rods here and by the dinette for extra storage.
I covered the kitchen counter tops with some marble contact paper to add instant glam. They're also holding up fairly well, though I don't think I'd suggest using this method for a counter or table that gets more use than a camper.
Next, we replaced most of the lighting in our camper with new LED lighting found online, and I ordered this light fixture as a feature over the table. It's a regular fixture that we hacked a little to make it shorter, and we added a special 12V bulb that was suitable for the camper.
The foam in the jackknife sofa and dinette cushions was still in great shape, so I sewed a slipcover for the sofa and I recovered the dinette cushions in indoor / outdoor fabric. You can find a tutorial for the dinette cushion reupholstery here, and a video for the jackknife sofa slipcover here.
We replaced the dinette table with an Ikea butcher block desktop cut to size, and this tabletop also serves as a base for another bed when we want to fold the dinette down at night.
… and some string lights, blackout blinds, hats and jackets.
I wasn't able to renovate the little bathroom in the camper this year, but that's on the to-do list for next Spring as-is replacing some of the windows and the rest of the lights!
Looks fantastic!! You did a great job.
This looks terrific, Christina! Just loved how you and your husband updated and modernized the interior using basic supplies and materials. The peel and stick options that are out there now are so lovely!
I am obsessed with this! Such a great job! How much do you think you spent on the renos (besides your time)?
Prettiest trailer ever!! Who says trailers can't have white kitchens?? Love all of it!!!!
Where did you find your artwork?
I love this! We just purchased a 5th wheel and I can't wait to update it as well! Thanks for the awesome ideas. I would love to know where the cage light and how to make the camper sweet camper sign!
How wonderful! Your family will have so many wonderful memories.
Just awesome. I wish I was as resourceful as you and your husband. I love your simple and elegant tips. Amazing kitchen you have there.
The camper reno looks great! I just saw the before post and had to search for the after because I wanted to see how it turned out. Great work! my family loves out camper and i'm sure yours will too.
Super helpful tips. Never thought one could have an RV tour look so classy. Awesome job – you inspire many.
What you accomplished is nothing short of incredible. Well done!
It's looking amazing. This is really great information. I like your article. Thank you for shear a great information.
Thanks for being a motivation to the rest of us!
Thanks! I would have to agree, Christina and her husband did an amazing job! Their hard work definitely paid off.
I love the renovated rv. Great deco. Do tell where you got the pinstripe and paisley jacket or at least the brand name. Thanks for sharing the wonderful rv pics.

Love what you have done to our old trailer!! So bright and fresh. Definitely a lot of sweat required to get it updated. Can't wait to see what you do with the bathroom.
So many memories were made while using this unit with our boys. Enjoy making memories with your family!
Inside looks really awesome, you shared the great pieces of information. loved it!
I LOVE your RV Remodel, it is gorgeous, thanks so much for sharing! The link to your Butcher Block Table Top Desk isn't working. I would love to use this idea in my trailer remodel but couldn't find anything like it at ikea.com. Do you have a different link or do they not sell them anymore?
Your renovation is a complete 360. Thanks for sharing. I plan on starting with painting my Class C just so I don't have to see the cheap wood paneling. Definitely will paint it a white shade of color. Appreciated you sharing the paint colors: Valspar Ultra White, Benjamin Moore Simply White, Valspar Noir (lower cupboards). i will probably use the same as I have been wondering what white color to go with.
Brilliant article. My partner and I have been wanting to renovate a campervan for years and this gives us the inspiration we need. Fantastic article.
I love all of these ideas! How do you get your dinette table to fold down for a bed? Do you have to take the legs off? Or are they on hinges?
Hi, I love you remodel! I would like to do something similar with our dinette table. How does yours fold down? Does that middle support come off easily?
Hello, you did amazing!! I am curious about that light fixture over the table. Did you have to rewire it for a 12v bulb? I'm wanting to upgrade mine but am wondering how to be able to use a normal fixture with the rv bulbs? Thank you in advance!!
Wow! I even never thought I can organize our RV in a campaign this way! Yours is looking great and clean. I never did ours like you. But, in our next campaign, I will definitely follow your tips and hope will get an organized RV! Thanks, Christina for sharing such a wonderful idea!

Kings Kaleidoscope has a history of breaking convention. The band first met at church, reimagining hymns and ecclesial melodies. But what started under lofted ceilings soon broke through, reaching the ready ears of crowds and critics. Five EPs and two critically-acclaimed LPs later (both landing in the top 10 on Billboard's gospel chart), King's continues to reinvent their medium. Genre-bending rhythms, bold arrangements, and soaring melodies underscore the diverse influences within the band. Chad Gardner leads the collective of friends; up to ten members strong, and all hands stretch the canvas until it sings. Their latest project, The Beauty Between, is another transformation, but what remains true—and what resonates with fans—is the creative core: an honest expression of the ache, love, and color of a life redeemed.
"Renaissance Man" Whether it be wowing crowds with his lyrical prowess or organizing community events for the elderly, Wordsplayed has emerged as one of the great riddles of modern rap music. A pioneer of the self coined "indietrap" sound, John "Wordsplayed" Itiola uses his unique voice and whimsical lyricism to paint pictures that are equal parts fawn in mid stride and 1980's era Japanese race car engineering.

Wilberforce University campus
Wilberforce University campus Save
Description: Photograph showing buildings on the campus of Wilberforce University, Wilberforce, Ohio. In 1856, the Methodist Episcopal Church established Wilberforce University near Xenia, Ohio, to provide African Americans access to a college education. The university was the first private black college in the United States, and was named by its founders after William Wilberforce, a prominent eighteenth-century abolitionist. A number of African American Ohioans attended the school during its early years. During the American Civil War, attendance declined as many students enlisted in the Union army. Wilberforce University closed in 1862. In 1863, the African Methodist Episcopal Church acquired ownership of the university. Under the direction of Daniel Payne, a bishop in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, John Mitchell, the principal of a school in Cincinnati, and James Shorter, an African Methodist Episcopal pastor from Zanesville, Ohio, Wilberforce reopened its doors. The institution operated as a private university serving the African-American community for the next twenty-four years. In 1887, the State of Ohio began to provide Wilberforce with funds to help finance the institution, which brought to an end the university's exclusively private status. The state also helped the university create a Normal and Industrial Department that eventually evolved into Central State University. View on Ohio Memory.

Kolbe Hall University of Akron Photograph
Kolbe Hall University of Akron Photograph Save
Description: Kolbe Hall at the University of Akron currently houses the College of Fine and Applied Arts, WZIP FM radio station, and the Daum Theater. The University of Akron was originally founded as Buchtel College in 1870. The school was named after industrialist John Buchtel, who was a prominent figure in the community of Akron and was associated with the Universalist Church. By the early twentieth century, Buchtel College was not as closely linked to the interests of the Universalist Church. The school chose to become non-denominational in 1907. Financial problems caused its trustees to turn the school over to the city of Akron in 1913. At this point, Buchtel College was renamed the University of Akron. In more recent years, the University of Akron has become known for its scientific research in a variety of areas, including polymers and nanotechnology. In addition, it has a number of other strong programs of study, including in the business and legal fields. View on Ohio Memory.

The Stadium on Krestovsky Island, also unofficially known as «Zenit Arena» and «Piter Arena», Russia's unique sports facility, equipped with a retractable roof and a roll-out field, due to which it can be transformed into a platform for a variety of events. Complex of engineering solutions used in the facility, makes it not only one of the most advanced facilities in the world, but also one of the most secure and convenient places for visitors.
A combination of a retractable roof and a roll-out field will be one of the main know-how of the stadium. Field with dimensions 120 * 80 m will move through a system of electric motors, raising with the assistance of air pillow. During football matches the field will be located inside the bowl of the stadium, for the period of concerts, exhibitions and competitions in other sports it will be located outside the stadium – for the best safety of a pitch.
This decision will allow to maintain the high quality of the pitch throughout the year and to avoid its replacement as it usually happens at the classic football arenas. For maintaining a constant temperature and humidity level, the field will be equipped with the aeration system and electric heating. The time required to move the fields and all related procedures will be about 6 hours.
A retractable roof will provide the sunlight in the days when the football field will be located inside the stadium: without the proper amount of sun pitch will not grow. In addition, according to the regulations of FIFA, matches must take place under the open air and a removable segment helps to satisfy this requirement. But the most important thing is that the new stadium will be comfortable for visitors at any time, including the winter. In order to close the roof, for example in case of bad weather, it will take only 15 minutes.
Stadium on Krestovsky Island - a large-scale IT-project that takes into account all needs and helps realize all the possibilities of modern sports facilities.
The area of the stadium will be covered with a network of wireless Internet access (wi-fi): designed network capacity - 436 access points. The network will provide unlimited access to the Internet and internal media resources to visitors of category VIP, VVIP guests and visitors of the skyboxes. It will also be able for media and crew of the stadium. In addition, the network will contact the staff of the arena with the situation room.
250 km of fiber-optic networks will provide technological capacity of the stadium. All information generated at the stadium will be stored in a single data center (ETSOD) with the capacity of more than 50 terabytes. Such a powerful infrastructure is capable of providing service to any currently existing software applications.
The data transmission system with 15 thousand ports and two channels to connect to the Internet will be installed at the stadium. In order to ensure data exchange of integrated security systems, a separate line will be provided.
The speed of data transfer between switch-board via doubled optical channels will be 10Gbps. The data transfer rate for the connection of the user equipment - 1Gbps.
Payment and access system of the stadium - a single hardware and software system for comprehensive automated work with visitors of the arena. It is designed for information and reference services, the provision of specialized free and paid services and the organization of access for spectators.
The video surveillance system will be installed at the facility that allows to follow any of the spectators from the input security cordon to the place on the bleachers. The system identifies the ticket, appearance and track record of the fan. A total of more than 600 cameras will be installed under the bleachers space. The main task of surveillance - fix illegal actions and the identification of offenders.
To protect against unauthorized access to the stadium by unauthorized persons, sports facilities will be equipped with an alarm system. The project provides for about 3.5 thousand magnetic detectors to be installed on doors and windows, about 200 detectors of broken glass and more than one thousand optoelectronic detectors that will control the amount of space.
For transportation of staff and visitors to the different areas and facilities, as well as protection against unauthorized access, the stadium will be mounted with the access monitoring and control system. Entry and exit to the premises of the facility will be carried out by electronic cards, which accommodate doors controllers, readers, cards and electronic locking elements. Any door can be unlocked from workstations guard posts. Access control will be equipped with more than one thousand points of passage.
A fire alarm system is intended for detecting fire at an early stage and generation of control signals for switching the different systems. In case of a precedent, the stadium includes a set of measures: warning and control operation (switch facility in the emergency mode), smoke removal, deactivation of ventilation systems, elevators control, shutdown of process equipment etc.
The system will be based on 16 fire stations located in different parts of the building and connected to a local network, which is one decentralized station. More than 10 thousand and two thousand multisensor manual call points will be used as sensors.
Several types of fire protection systems will be installed at the facility. In control rooms – dry-chemical extinguishing system, in the switchboard rooms - gaseous suppression system and firewater - in all other rooms. Steam fire protection system will be installed in the most of the space of the stadium, and the internal and external translucent structures (stained glass, windows, doors) will be irrigated by a water spray.
One of the unique features of the facility will be a fire extinguishing system in the area of the bleachers – a robotized fire complex. After signal fire robot determines the location of the fire and manufactures water spray. The robot is equipped with a "technical vision" consisting of the IR-sensor with a scanner and a TV-camera. It is also endowed with intellect: the definition of target coordinates and pointing to the source of fire. Fire robots are connected with an information network, managed through a central console and integrated into a security system.
The single centre is a hub of communication and control responsible for the operation of the stadium and a place where staff will monitor the processes taking place at the arena and manage all engineering systems in response to any arising situation – both before the event and in its process and after.
The system monitors all subsystems: security systems, life support, fire protection, communication systems, informing the staff on duty of the Center for Monitoring and Forecasting of Emergency Situations - the element of daily management of the Unified State System of Prevention and Emergency Response of the pre-alarm, emergency, emergencies and fires.
Even in crisis situations the communication and control system of the stadium provides guaranteed sustainable telephone communications at the facility between operational and rescue services, special units and headquarters for disaster management. Monitoring system engineering structures of the stadium will work in a real time and allows to track changes in the state of engineering (bearing) structures.
Specialized lighting will be installed on the arena which conforms to all the conditions for the comfort of the players, spectators, judges and work of TV cameras. In particular, to eliminate flicker effect during slow and super slow repeat for spotlights electronic and high-frequency control gears are used.
The project provides for emergency TV coverage - the possibility of continuous television broadcast of a match in a standard mode in a case of a power supply shutdown.
The stadium will be provided with the power lighting system for the first football category, a special category by an independent backup power supply and uninterruptible power supply. Thanks to this, 100% of lighting fixtures remain in operation, providing high light levels within 3 hours. That is, even if the whole city is disconnected from the electricity, visitors of the stadium can watch the game and not notice any changes.
Lighting equipment of the stadium will be located in a special ring technical bridge, providing free and easy access to it at any time. The bridge is located in the space between girders ("rails" where a retractable part of the roof will move) and is connected to the system transient radial bridges with access to the roof.
At the entrance to the stadium information stands with the direction of travel to an available input will be installed.
To ensure accessibility for people with limited vision tactile warning indicators are equipped before each flight of stairs. Stair treads are equipped with non-skid anti contrasting color corner profile at each stage of the flight of stairs.
Toilets for people with limited mobility will be equipped with a call bell for duty staff. Equipment for two-way communication with the dispatcher will be installed on seats of handicapped people.
Complex indicators characterizing the specific value of the flow of energy resources make it possible to include the facility for the A ++ (very high) class of energy efficiency. All materials and technologies used for the construction of the stadium will be environmentally safe and meet high standards of LEED international certification system: cables do not emit halogen during fire (HF-cable), energy saving lamps, etc.
Equipment meets the high technical level of the project and has the highest energy efficiency class by using the most advanced technological developments. In particular, OTIS elevators installed at the stadium are equipped with ReGen regenerative drive, which redirects the energy which is usually dissipated as heat in the brake resistor back into the power grid of the building. Thus, it makes a pure "green" energy and energy savings can reach 40-75%.
