Three secrets behind the Ouagadougou Partnership's magic
Read this post in French here.
The Ouagadougou Partnership Annual Meeting is my favorite meeting of the year and this year it is going to be extra special. There's an intangible magic to this gathering of leaders from nine Francophone West African countries together with donors, advocates and researchers to share lessons and progress towards their commitments to increase access to voluntary family planning for an additional 2.2 million women from 2015 to 2020. There is a buzz of collective urgency to achieve these important targets, together with a shared pride at the early success of the joint action.
The Hewlett Foundation has been an active supporter of the partnership since it began in 2011. We have supported the Ouagadougou Partnership (OP) Coordination Unit as well as a regional civil society network and funding for service delivery, research, and advocacy grantees to deepen their engagement and impact in the region. I am so honored to be a part of this work and to experience and contribute to this special and dedicated community working together to improve women's lives.
I am particularly excited for this Annual Meeting because the partnership is at a key turning point. As we race toward the end of 2020, we are in a moment of reflection on the incredible progress this effort has achieved for women in these nine countries. We are also beginning to think collectively about the future. What has made this partnership work? How can we harness the strong foundation that has been built to go even further?
The governments, civil society, non-governmental organizations and funders of the OP are answering these questions and more through a consultative process that launched last month called OP Beyond 2020. There are many things that are worth celebrating in the Ouagadougou Partnership, but a few stand out to me even in these early days of the consultation: its focus on data, its effective coordination unit, and its innovative regional approach.
1. Data at the core.
The OP has a powerful tool at its core—the Costed Implementation Plan—that brings data much more closely in conversation with government and donor decision-making. The plans represent each government's commitment to family planning, powerful statements of support for the value of reproductive rights. They also serve to align donor funding around national priorities, something that we often fail to do. Importantly, civil society has a formal role in developing the plans, including youth engagement, which has resulted in important inputs and a growing recognition of the value of citizen voices in government planning. Finally, the Costed Implementation Plans are data-driven in a new and important way through inputs by Track20, a global family planning monitoring project of FP2020, implemented by Avenir Health. This allows the Plans to show country-to-country comparisons each year, tight tracking of indictors and policy-making that is data-responsive. There is room to evolve the Costed Implementation Plans moving forward so that they are more tightly aligned with national budgeted timelines.
2. A nimble, empowered OP Coordination Unit.
This small but mighty team inventively built a suite of signature programs that have created a true sense of community among nine diverse countries. One such program is the Donor Caravan, an opportunity each April for a funder delegation to visit two or three countries for a deep dive into the issues in each place. It allows funders to advocate for issues at the highest levels, to build community and learn about programs and places where their institution may be less engaged. Another is the Learning and Exchange Fund in which country delegations can apply for funds to visit another OP country to learn from them about a key aspect of work they want to pursue. The Coordination Unit has partnered with a bold Beninese communication firm, Etrilabs, to develop a social media presence, a great website, and attention in local journalism, further contributing to the sense of momentum and community.
3. The power of working regionally.
The Ouagadougou Partnership has put this community of nine countries on the map in global health. These are mostly small countries in terms of population. Because of that, as well as language and historical barriers, they are often under-resourced in global development and given little attention in research or programs. At the start of the partnership, this group included countries with some of the highest fertility rates in the world and lowest use of modern contraception. By coming together, the OP has helped to catalyze more than three million new users of voluntary contraception in seven years, more progress than in the previous 21 years. They have also pursued a model of development that puts government in the lead, creates incentives for donors to align with each other and with national priorities, and has opened spaces for the strong voices of the people of these countries. This regional mind-set and platform has allowed many of our INGO grantees to enter with their own regional programs, where before individual country programs were not financially viable.
The Ouagadougou Partnership has also brought together the people of these countries through exchange, healthy competition and shared pride in their joint accomplishments. I think this is where the magic lies, in that sense of community built around finding shared experience and goals among diverse but related places and peoples. I believe strongly in the power of this partnership to continue to empower women to have access to their full reproductive rights and choices in the years ahead. Onward we go, together.

Science and Morality in the Planned Parenthood Scandal
by Georgia Center for Opportunity | Aug 20, 2015
By now, almost everyone who isn't a Democratic United States Senator has seen at least one of the five macabre videotapes released by the Center for Medical Progress, a pro-life investigative group. The videos are ubiquitous in social media, so I won't provide links to them here.
In a recent post, AJC columnist Jay Bookman has provided a nice example of the arguments offered by those who continue to defend Planned Parenthood in the face of these—to say the least—embarrassing revelations. Here are his five points, together with my responses.
1. Nothing in the tapes provides evidence of illegal, let alone criminal, behavior. Planned Parenthood is allowed by law to recover its costs in collecting, preserving and transporting that tissue, and there is no evidence it violated that law. Tellingly, and despite the melodramatic complaints of conservatives, the videos have so far resulted in no criminal investigation or prosecution by state or federal authorities. Yelling and the beating of chests doesn't alter that basic fact. Fabricated outrage doesn't change that. Simply put, in legal terms there is no "there" there.
Not so fast, Mr. Bookman. The Planned Parenthood representatives are indeed cagey and circumspect and there is, to be sure, no straightforward smoking gun, but like all bureaucrats, they seem to know that there are expenses and then there are expenses. It may take a lot of trouble to untangle what's a genuine "cost" and what amounts to a profit over and above costs. That the Department of Justice or a federal prosecutor hasn't yet commenced an investigation doesn't mean that the DOJ or a D.A. won't, though given the track record of this Administration with respect to abortion, I'm not holding my breath. A real federal investigation may have to await a new Administration, or a Congressional investigation that forces the current Attorney General's hand. So there is nothing at all "telling" about the lack of federal action so far. And if I'm not mistaken, at least twelve states have commenced investigations.
2. The law making such research legal was passed in 1993, and among those voting in favor of that bill was one Mitch McConnell, the same man who now claims that videos documenting what he voted to make legal "absolutely shock the conscience." Other current GOP senators who backed that '93 law were Richard Shelby, John McCain, Dan Coats, Chuck Grassley, Thad Cochran and Orrin Hatch, many of whom are now backing a shutdown.
Even if the research is authorized by law, it's one thing to consider that research in the abstract, another altogether to confront graphically what it means and requires (the dissection of a recognizably human body). Perhaps the law needs to be changed. And even if we decide not to change the law that permits the research, there's no reason why we have to fund either it or the organization that provides the human organs on which the researchers work.
3. Those receiving the fetal tissue are not ghouls of some sort, and the tissue is not being put to inappropriate or disrespectful use. To the contrary, the tissue is crucial to research into treatments to extend and improve human life, research that would be impossible to conduct without that material. As the New York Times reports, "the National Institutes of Health spent $76 million on research using fetal tissue in 2014 with grants to more than 50 universities, including Columbia, Harvard, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Stanford, Yale and the University of California in Berkeley, Irvine, Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco."
While we aren't necessarily talking about Dr. Josef Mengele here, why must we assume a congruence between the demands of science and "democratic" morality? A careful reading of Francis Bacon's New Atlantis—the great work on science and politics written by the greatest and most perspicuous thinker on that subject—makes it clear enough for anyone who has eyes to see that there's a pretty significant disconnect between science and ordinary morality. Curiosity and the ambition to master nature can take one pretty far from what's decent and respectful. The more powerful science is, the greater mastery of nature it promises us, the more attention we must pay to it and the less we should avert our eyes from its practices. There may be benefits—which, by the way, are at the moment for the most part simply speculative—that aren't worth the cost.
4. All tissue used in that research is donated by clinic patients, who receive no compensation for doing so. Their sole motive is to help fellow human beings. If we ban the use of such material in research, we accomplish absolutely nothing except to halt that potentially life-saving research. So which is the true "pro-life" position?
As C.S. Lewis argues in The Abolition of Man, there's a moral cost in treating human beings as meat, or of denying the humanity of a being that is recognizably human. In so doing, we run the palpable risk of dehumanizing ourselves, of numbing our moral sense. Indeed, Lewis's work ought to be absolutely required reading for anyone who wishes to comment intelligently on these issues.
5. None of the $500 million in federal funding going to Planned Parenthood is used to finance abortions. It is used instead to give low-income women access to contraceptives, maternity care, breast-cancer and ovarian-cancer screenings, and vaccinations against sexually transmitted diseases. If we strip Planned Parenthood of funding for such programs as punishment for the "crime" of following the law and providing tissue for medical research, no other organization has the infrastructure, personnel and training to provide those health-care services. In effect, those women and their children would be the innocent victims of a successful effort to defund Planned Parenthood.
While there may not be a single national organization capable of picking up the slack of PPFA's arguably overstated non-abortion business, the federal funding that it receives can be put to precisely the same use by a myriad of community health centers and nonprofits in the health, not the abortion, business all over the country. Indeed, the proposed Senate bill preserves every penny of women's health funding, mandating simply that it go to health clinics, not abortion clinics.
I've mentioned two pieces of what I regard as required background reading. Let me close with a third, Dr. Leon Kass' classic, "The Wisdom of Repugnance":
Revulsion is not an argument; and some of yesterday's repugnances are today calmly accepted-though, one must add, not always for the better. In crucial cases, however, repugnance is the emotional expression of deep wisdom, beyond reason's power fully to articulate it. Can anyone really give an argument fully adequate to the horror which is father-daughter incest (even with consent), or having sex with animals, or mutilating a corpse, or eating human flesh, or even just (just!) raping or murdering another human being? Would anybody's failure to give full rational justification for his or her revulsion at these practices make that revulsion ethically suspect? Not at all. On the contrary, we are suspicious of those who think that they can rationalize away our horror, say, by trying to explain the enormity of incest with arguments only about the genetic risks of inbreeding.
Religious Freedom in a New Age
by Georgia Center for Opportunity | Aug 5, 2015
On July 25th, AJC columnist Jay Bookman dismissed Georgia House Speaker David Ralston's "Pastor Protection Bill" as an essentially meaningless symbolic gesture. I'm uncharacteristically inclined to agree with him.
In its current form the bill simply states that "[n]o minister of the gospel or cleric or religious practitioner ordained or authorized to solemnize marriages according to the usages of the denomination, when acting in his or her official religious capacity, shall be required to solemnize any marriage in violation of his or her right to free exercise of religion." This would seem to follow pretty directly from the First Amendment Free Exercise Clause, as University of Maryland law professor Mark Graber has observed.
While I'm not averse to symbolism and, indeed, regard it as an important teaching function of the law, the prospect that pastors will actually be compelled to perform same-sex marriages is a remote one. To be sure, in our current circumstances anything is possible, but that's not one of the pressing concerns keeping me up at night.
Here are the things that, to my mind, are causes of concern:
The tax-exempt status of churches and other faith-based institutions that remain faithful to the traditional understanding of marriage
The eligibility of faith-based institutions (above all, schools, universities, and social service agencies) to compete on a level playing field for government funding if they continue to act in accordance with their long-held belief that marriage is between a man and a woman
The ability of churches and other faith-based institutions—if they so choose—to demand doctrinal and behavioral conformity, not just of ministers, but of all employees
In a nutshell, I'm concerned that we're facing a significant challenge to the ability of churches and other faith-based institutions to remain theologically and morally faithful while fully and equally participating in civil society.
And before I discuss these substantive concerns in a bit more detail, let me add a procedural worry. I fear that Speaker Ralston and many other Republicans, having been chastened by the religious freedom contretemps earlier this year in Indiana, Georgia, and elsewhere, will regard this pastor protection legislation as all they need to do. If true friends of religious liberty accept this down payment on a robust commitment to our first freedom as the full price, they will have left our religious institutions vulnerable to all sorts of threats. I recognize that some of my concerns will have to be addressed at the federal level by something like the First Amendment Defense Act, but there is no reason why Georgia could not provide similar protections at the state level. And I also recognize that laws are mere parchment barriers, weaker than constitutional provisions (which may themselves be no more than papier-mâché); neither will protect religious liberty from a public (or an elite) that has grown indifferent or hostile to it.
I turn now to the challenges, beginning with tax-exempt status. During the oral arguments for Obergefell v. Hodges, Solicitor General Donald Verrilli conceded to Justice Samuel Alito that the tax-exempt status of religious institutions that uphold the traditional understanding of marriage is "certainly going to be an issue." The dissenters took note of this exchange. Chief Justice John Roberts said this:
Hard questions arise when people of faith exercise religion in ways that may be seen to conflict with the new right to same-sex marriage—when, for example, a religious college provides married student housing only to opposite-sex married couples, or a religious adoption agency declines to place children with same-sex married couples. Indeed, the Solicitor General candidly acknowledged that the tax exemptions of some religious institutions would be in question if they opposed same-sex marriage.… There is little doubt that these and similar questions will soon be before this Court.
Justice Clarence Thomas seconded this concern:
Numerous amici—even some not supporting the States—have cautioned the Court that its decision here will "have unavoidable and wide-ranging implications for religious liberty." … In our society, marriage is not simply a governmental institution; it is a religious institution as well…. Today's decision might change the former, but it cannot change the latter. It appears all but inevitable that the two will come into conflict, particularly as individuals and churches are confronted with demands to participate in and endorse civil marriages between same-sex couples.
Justice Samuel Alito spoke of the larger consequences of the Court's decision:
Today's decision usurps the constitutional right of the people to decide whether to keep or alter the traditional understanding of marriage. The decision will also have other important consequences.
It will be used to vilify Americans who are unwilling to assent to the new orthodoxy. In the course of its opinion, the majority compares traditional marriage laws to laws that denied equal treatment for African-Americans and women … The implications of this analogy will be exploited by those who are determined to stamp out every vestige of dissent.
Perhaps recognizing how its reasoning may be used, the majority attempts, toward the end of its opinion, to reassure those who oppose same-sex marriage that their rights of conscience will be protected.… We will soon see whether this proves to be true. I assume that those who cling to old beliefs will be able to whisper their thoughts in the recesses of their homes, but if they repeat those views in public, they will risk being labeled as bigots and treated as such by governments, employers, and schools.
Let me emphasize this last point, for it is a clear allusion to the context of Justice Alito's exchange with the Solicitor General, which involved the Supreme Court's affirmation of the IRS's revocation of the tax-exempt status of Bob Jones University over its policy forbidding interracial dating. If the analogy—insisted upon by the Court's majority—between opposition to same-sex marriage and opposition to interracial marriage holds, then the former amounts to the same sort of bigotry as the latter and, perhaps, deserves the same legal treatment.
In the Bob Jones case, the Supreme Court held that the First Amendment Free Exercise Clause does not protect the University from the IRS's revocation of its tax exempt status. The Court's reasoning was that, in the first place, tax exempt status is granted under the Internal Revenue Code only to institutions and organizations that "serve a public purpose" and are not "contrary to established public policy." While the University might well serve a public purpose, augmenting or supplanting public efforts at higher education, its practice of racial discrimination was certainly contrary to established public policy. And if free exercise claims, in the best instance, require strict scrutiny, overcoming racial discrimination is surely the kind of compelling state interest that justifies an abridgement of that right.
It doesn't require much imagination or legal expertise to see how this line of reasoning could be applied to churches and other faith-based institutions that act "contrary to established public policy" in upholding the traditional understanding of marriage.
This doesn't mean that the IRS must or will revoke their tax exempt status, only that it can, and that the First Amendment provides no sure defense against that action. If countering discrimination based on sexual orientation comes to be regarded as a compelling state interest, then the free exercise rights of religious institutions will likely have to give way if the IRS bows to the pressure that will surely be brought to bear on it to use its powers for that end.
I think that a case can be made on behalf of continuing to extend those exemptions, both in terms of the manifold human needs all churches address and in terms of preserving the pluralism that is the essential ground of free institutions and a free people, but we have to make that case over and over again, in the face of a faction that isn't particularly interested in listening to it. I take some solace from the fact, that, at the moment, public opinion seems to favor religious freedom, but that delicate flower needs to be carefully cultivated.
Now, if tax exemptions are a problem, then you know eligibility for government grants will be. To be sure, this isn't an issue for houses of worship as houses of worship (which, generally speaking are not and should not be eligible for government grants), but it is one for schools and colleges, as well as for social service agencies. While the Supreme Court has frequently upheld the channeling of government aid to religious institutions under certain circumstances (see, for example, Mitchell v. Helms, Zelman v. Simmons-Harris, and the Arizona Christian School Tuition Organization case), it has also held that governments are perfectly within their rights to deny otherwise generally available aid and facilities to religious organizations (see, for example, Locke v. Davey and CLS v. Martinez).
Governments can attach any number of conditions to the aid they provide. Adoption agencies may be required to place children with couples without regard to the gender of the partners. Universities may be required to provide housing—if they provide it at all—to couples that are married in the eyes of the state, regardless of whether those marriages have the sanction of the sponsoring religious body. And if you put the recent EEOC ruling on sexual orientation together with the way in which the Department of Education is interpreting Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, it's pretty easy to see how a lot of government money could be riding on conformity with what appears to be the new normal in regard to sexual orientation and marriage.
For higher education institutions, access to government money is a big deal. According to the U.S. Department of the Treasury, 55% of spending on undergraduate education in 2009-10 came from federal aid (which amounted to $124 billion that year). While there are a few colleges (Hillsdale and Grove City, for example) that take pride in not accepting a dime of federal money, most would at the moment not be able to survive without it.
Again, this doesn't have to happen. Congress could pass legislation that protects religious freedom, or agencies could voluntarily refrain from impinging on it. But pressure will be brought to bear on behalf of those who, as they would put it, don't want to subsidize discrimination.
This brings me to my next concern, the religious hiring rights of churches and faith-based organizations. Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act permits them to take religion into account when hiring. And the "ministerial exception" based in the First Amendment—recently vindicated in the Hosanna-Tabor case—means that a number of federal laws granting employees enforceable rights cannot be applied to those a church holds out as ministers. But these provisions do not provide comprehensive protection of religious hiring rights. There is certainly a gap between the legislatively-acknowledged right to hire coreligionists and the constitutionally-grounded ministerial exception. What if someone who signs a statement of faith as a condition of employment comes out as gay and/or enters into a same-sex marriage? Unlike the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, the recent EEOC ruling about sexual orientation discrimination does not contain exceptions for religious organizations. It isn't at all clear that Courts will find that the Free Exercise Clause will protect them from EEOC complaints, in the event that these organizations choose to enforce doctrinal or behavioral requirements on their employees.
Now, this parade of horribles does not have to march into our sanctuaries. The threats that loom on the horizon do not have to materialize. Those who currently hold the upper hand in government may practice forbearance, either out of a genuine commitment to pluralism and religious freedom or out a fear of overplaying their hand and alienating public opinion.
We on our part must be both vigilant and winsome, vigorously defending and advocating for our rights when they are threatened and offering a model of the charity and forbearance that we hope others will also display. Our society is pluralistic, reflecting deep disagreements about how we ought to live. History teaches us that faith doesn't require hegemony to prosper. But it does require that those who have it live it, loving their neighbors as themselves. There is room both for political and legal action, and for the building and maintenance of personal relationships. If we forgo the former, there may be no room for the latter. If we focus on the former, we run the risk that those parchment barriers will be swept away by the animosity we have done nothing to disarm and dispel.

As we entered in to the new year, many people made resolutions to improve their overall health. Sometimes those resolutions seem to fall by the wayside within 30 days. Here might be just the reason why you will want to cut back on junk food….and stick with it.
Love's like an addiction. That is to say—at first. New love can feel like a giddy and blissful infatuation. The birds sing louder, the sun shines brighter, and all is right in the world. But the passion of a new romance inevitably dissipates over time. As a relationship progresses, the exhilaration of falling in love is gradually replaced by a sense of content commitment.

Q: Why is my code not working for test input? - Project Euler 549 This problem can be found here and is as follows:

The smallest number m such that 10 divides m! is m=5.
The smallest number m such that 25 divides m! is m=10.
Let s(n) be the smallest number m such that n divides m!.
So s(10)=5 and s(25)=10.
Let S(n) be ∑s(i) for 2 ≤ i ≤ n.
S(100)=2012.
Find S(10⁸).

Here is my code, as you can see, it is a completely brute-force solution, which seems to run in a few minutes for 10 ** 8, in addition to this, s(10) = 5 and s(25) = 10 (according to my program), as the problem says, in addition to this, I have also generated some random numbers and checked them:
def is_int(x): return int(x) == x

factorials = [1]
for i in range(1, 25):
    factorials.append(factorials[-1] * i)

def s(n):
    i = 2
    while not is_int(factorials[i] / n): i += 1
    return i

def S(x):
    S = 0

    for n in range(2, x + 1):
        if n % 10 ** 5 == 0: print("{0}% done!".format(n / x * 100))
        S += s(n)

    return S

I have checked the precomputed factorial values, and they are correct.

Please can you say why the code does not work?

A: It's quite likely this function is the source of all problems:
def is_int(x):
    return int(x) == x

If you're trying to check whether a number is divisible by another number, this isn't the best way to do it. Especially with higher order numbers, floating point representations tend to get dicey. Just use the % operator, like this:
def s(n):
    i = 2
    while factorials[i] % n:
        i += 1
    return i

Also, if you want S(100), you'd probably want to store factorials all the way to 100! too?
factorials = [1]
for i in range(1, 101): # note this
    factorials.append(factorials[-1] * i)

And now:
In[]:
S(100)

Out[]:
2012

A: Your comparison function def is_int(x): return int(x) == x is running into problems with the limited precision of a float.
for i in range(1,100):
    fraction = 10**i/(10**i-1)
    if fraction == int(fraction):
        print(i)
        break

returns 16.
Your calculation would be safe if instead of checking for equality between the float value and integer
while not is_int(factorials[i] / n):
    i += 1

you checked if the modulo is 0, thus factorials[i] can be divided by n:
while not (factorials[i] % n == 0):
    i += 1

Then, after increasing the number of calculated factorials, S(100) returns 2012 as required.
EDIT:
while not (factorials[i] % n == 0): can make use of the faultyness of 0 and thus be shortened to while factorials[i] % n: as COLDSPEED pointed out.

Word of Mouth Marketing in 5 Easy Steps…sounds like fun.
Good word of mouth Drury Inn, an inn that gives you free long-distance calls. We all know the first thing you do when you get to a hotel is call home and get screwed on those costs if you use the hotel phone.
People love to talk…you want them to talk about you. Remember when Krispy Kreme came out? What was the thing about their doughnuts? They were HOT! No advertising was used in spreading the popularity of this great American Icon. What happened? They lost their special "thing" then they started shrink-wrapping those delectible pastries and selling them where? Gas stations!! No one talks about the food they get in gas stations. They are slipping now as a result of the loss of word of mouth marketing.
Giving people are reason to talk about YOUR stuff.
Making it easier for that conversation to take place.
YouTube is worth what it is for one thing: every page has 7 different spots/ways for you to share a video with a friend.
What we are really talking about here is love. People love your stuff and want to tell everyone else about it. You know what happens to a teenager in love…and what happens when that love dies. You don't want that negative word of mouth.
Love and money don't mix with word of mouth marketing. Don't offer them anything for telling others. They will do it on their own because they want to.
Advertising is the price of being BORING. If you are boring, you have to pay people to tell them about you.
If you make someone unhappy, they will tell, on average, 5 people their experience for every 1 person a happy customer tells. However, if you make that person happy again, they will spread the word an average of 10 people for every 1 happy customer.

Q: How to return an index from a bsearch or lfind? - sort distorts return vals I've looked at this already and tried to implement, but it keeps giving me a seg fault to do it this way:
Determining index from bsearch and lfind? - here is the link for reference.
Basically, I'm trying to figure out the index in an array from a pointer that is returned by either bsearch or lfind.
void *val;
void *begin = (char *)v->elems (I need to use this separate variable)

Then, I call on either search, which seems to be working fine...
val = bsearch(key, begin, v->count, v->elemsz, cmp);

And based on the link above, I'm trying to do the following:
index = *(int*)((char*)value_to_find - (char*)start_ptr)/sizeof(cv->elemsz)

However it segfaults everytime I do this. My logic is that I cast both void pointers to type of char*, then subtract the distance b/w the pointers since you can't do pointer arithmetic on void. I divide this by the size of each element to return the index, which needs to be cast to an int. What am I missing here?
EDIT: Changing sizeof(cv->elemsz) to just elemsz did return the right indices. However, now the problem is that if the vector is sorted using qsort, it is returning the wrong value (index 10 when 20 is expected, etc).

A: The problem is that you are dividing the difference in addresses by the size of the elemsz property, which is probably a 32-bit unsigned integer (in other words, sizeof returns 4, regardless of your element size). Just divide by cv->elemsz instead.
index = *(int*)((char*)value_to_find - (char*)start_ptr)/cv->elemsz;

Also, you need to do similar arithmetic to utilize the returned index.

Irish horse feed manufacturer Connolly's Red Mills, an Enterprise Ireland client company, has signed a nutritional partnership deal with the world's top female showjumper and Olympian, Australian Edwina Tops-Alexander.
The Kilkenny-based company joins the leading fashion house, Gucci, as a partner with the showjumper. Gucci designs her personal wardrobe and she is also an ambassador for the luxury watch-maker Jaeger-LeCoutre. Under the deal all of Edwina's horses, including the multi Grand Prix winning gelding Cevo Itot du Chateau, will be fed exclusively on Connolly's Red Mills horse feeds. They will follow strict diet plans to suit their individual needs formulated by Connolly's Red Mills nutritionists at their headquarters in Goresbridge, Co. Kilkenny.
Joe Connolly, Managing Director of Connolly's Red Mills said: "Edwina can keep all her horses in top digestive health on the inside and performing to their best with the assistance of our nutritional experts."
Speaking about the Red Mills nutritional partnership Tops-Alexander added: "Nutrition is one of the key factors in performance, along with the sophisticated program and expert knowledge now available through Red Mills to individually analyse my horses. I'm very confident that Connolly's Red Mills will benefit not only my horses but also my own performance level."
Connolly's Red Mills group employs 200 people at its Kilkenny plant and its offices around the world, including the UK, Sweden, France, Japan and Malaysia.
Last year the company became the first in the world to secure a licence to import horse feed into mainland China. Connolly's Red Mills horse feeds are already well-known to many of the leading stables in the world. Over 100 group one, grade one, or grand prix events have been won by horses fuelled by their products in the last season alone.

Gambling adverts on illegal sites drop 87%: research
531536414 / iStockphoto.com
Canadian study says piracy is 'low priority' for rights owners
Getty sued for $1bn after 'gross misuse' of copyright
Pub fined over illegal Sky Sports broadcast
There has been an 87% drop in advertising from licensed gambling operators on illegal sites that infringe copyright laws in the past year.
That's according to research by WhiteBullet, a data company that specialises in brand safety solutions and provides transparency on digital advertising on IP-infringing websites.
The infringing website list (IWL), which was set up as part of 'Operation Creative' in 2013 by the Police Intellectual Property Crime Unit (PIPCU), gave gambling sites an up-to-date list of copyright-infringing sites, allowing them to stop placing adverts on them.
The Gambling Commission, set up in 2005 to regulate the industry, has three objectives that all licensed gambling operators must abide by.
One of the objectives is "ensuring gambling is kept free from crime and disorder".
In October last year, the Gambling Commission made the placing of digital adverts responsibly a licensing condition for all gambling operators targeting consumers in the UK.
The data gathered by WhiteBullet was on 40 gambling operators that hold a Gambling Commission licence and are current members of the IWL.
Acting detective superintendent Peter Ratcliffe, head of PIPCU, said: "The success of a strong relationship built between PIPCU and the Gambling Commission can be seen by these figures."
He added: "This is a fantastic example of a joint working initiative between police and an industry regulator.
"We commend the 40 gambling companies who are already using the IWL and encourage others to sign up."
Tim Moss, CEO of the UK Intellectual Property Office, said: "Partnership work is clearly having a major impact on IP crime across the UK. PIPCU and the Gambling Commission have cut off yet another illicit revenue stream for unscrupulous IP thieves."

» Food & Health Politics » Why advice to quit sugar can kill you.
« Is the high protein diet the best way to go?
With the Heart Foundation sticking to its guns and continuing to blame fat despite its own research telling it otherwise any new thinking is left to people outside the establishment. In Australia the current 'experts' in the field are a lawyer, a journalist and a chef. Whilst they have given sugar a public profile the dietary advice they give to avoid it is a nutritional disaster zone. In fact it is a serious public health risk.
Sugar is the worst thing in our diet no doubt, and for many reasons. However the solutions they offer simply shift the problem to something else that will kill you. It mostly stems from their definitions of sugar and ardent, reductionist, one size fits all theories.
The sugars we most need to concern ourselves with are glucose, fructose and alcohol. They differ markedly in how they are processed by your body and the effects of excess are also quite different. Without doubt the most heavily consumed sugar is glucose.
Starch is made of glucose. Starch is the principle ingredient in virtually all non-meat processed and manufactured foods from bread to breakfast cereals. Glucose is also added – as a component of sucrose (table sugar) – to virtually all processed foods. It strikes me as ironic that there is so much focus on added sugar when in fact the product itself is mostly starch (glucose) anyway.
Glucose makes you fat and sick in a number of ways. It is mostly to do with insulin. The insulin response associated with glucose ingestion prevents your body from accessing fat stores for energy, and it causes free fatty acids that have been ingested or manufactured by your liver to be stored as body fat and not used for energy.
Your body will prioritise the use of glucose because your brain is dependent on it for fuel. The human brain uses a lot more energy than you might imagine. When you eat or drink something with high concentrations of glucose you can feel it go straight to your brain – which is why sugar is so attractive when you feel fatigued. However, give a kid sugar and watch them bounce off the walls – this is their body trying to cope with the flood of sugar by increasing metabolic output. This is the same process that causes anxiety, mood swings and tiredness. This is also why people who reduce sugar consumption feel better for it.
The continuous ingestion of starch based foods causes an ongoing insulin response. Ultimately this causes inflammation of the arteries. This inflammation will then cause cholesterol build up and ultimately cardiovascular disease.
Glucose is also the primary energy source for cancer cells. Cancer cells produce energy anaerobically and are therefore dependent on glucose for fuel. Cancer treatments have been proven more effective when glucose intake is significantly reduced.
While glucose is your body's primary energy source, too much of it is really bad for you. And this has nothing to do with being overweight. My message is that skinny people get heart disease, metabolic disorders and cancer too. Being thin does not automatically equal being healthy, and it certainly does not mean that you can eat or drink whatever you like just because you don't put on weight.
Fructose is another animal altogether. Only your liver has the enzymes necessary to use it for energy. Most of it is converted to free fatty acids. In the natural world in which humans evolved fructose was much sought after because free fatty acids are a much richer source of energy than glucose. The complication is that free fatty acids can't be accessed for energy by your brain. So your body is stuck in a delicate situation of trying to maintain the balance between the glucose necessary for the brain and free fatty acids preferred by muscles.
Then there is high fructose corn syrup. This is a very cheap sugar manufactured from corn starch. Despite its name HFCS is most commonly used at about 50 / 50 glucose to fructose, not dissimilar to sucrose.
The real problem with fructose in our diet is that high fructose corn syrup and fructose (as the other half of sucrose) is added excessively to virtually all manufactured food products. This constant ingestion of significant quantities of fructose from refined sources means lots of free fatty acids readily stored as body fat.
Fructose from fruit falls into another category again. Fruit is very good for you – it is high in fibre and has many important micro nutrients. There is relatively small amounts of fructose and other sugars is fruit – certainly it does not compare to added sugars in processed food or the glucose of which most processed foods are made of. It is also 'packaged' in a food that limits overconsumption, facilitates slower absorption, and enables effective use by the body. The view that fruit is sugar and to be avoided is ill informed and just plain wrong.
The bottom line is that fructose, as an energy dense nutrient, and eaten in excess as an added sugar in junk food, will make sedentary people overweight. If you give up added fructose – and by default added glucose – you also give up the rubbish it came in. This is actually the greater benefit.
Alcohol is sugar on steroids. It is yet another beast. It will contribute significantly to fatty liver and contribute to weight gain like nothing else. There are numerous horrible effects from ongoing alcohol consumption but I have always been fascinated by the complete absence of discussion about this sugar by the aforementioned 'experts'. Apparently quitting sugar doesn't include giving up the booze.
Firstly they recommend quitting fructose from all sources including fruit. Significant research demonstrates the health benefits of fruit. Giving up fruit is extremely ill advised.
Secondly the 'quit sugar' camp recommend glucose based ingredients instead of fructose – dextrose, tapioca, rice flour – you name it, so long as it is glucose and not fructose. How is fructose sugar and glucose not?! Fructose may make you fat (notably if you live on a diet of junk and are generally lazy), but glucose will kill you in many ways. Giving up fructose may make inactive people thinner but continuing to eat glucose instead will lead to death. This is incredibly bad advice.
Thirdly, they promote meat as a healthy option. Since fat is no longer the bad guy and meat is satiating then it must be a better thing, right? Well if you ask any Cancer Council in the world you will get a definitive no on that one. I mentioned this in my last post, but meat denies the body the fibre it so critically needs for proper immune function, it feeds bad gut bacteria causing gut dysbiosis, it causes acidosis and oxidative stress. And the list goes on. Meat should be eaten in very limited amounts as a result. I invite you to do an internet search on Cancer Council guidelines from around the world to get a clearer idea on what you should be eating – especially if you don't want cancer.
Fourthly, they suggest there is no need to do exercise because giving up fructose will enable you to lose weight without any physical effort. I can't find words to describe how detrimental this recommendation is. Exercise serves many purposes – enhancing proprioception, developing functional strength and capacity, preventing injury, preventing and reversing disease……. the benefits are enormous. Not doing exercise is a significant risk to your health.
Fifth, the quit sugar blogs and websites are loaded with horribly reductionist, one size fits all advice. For example, (and I refer to a particular blog) just because sugar gives you a migraine doesn't mean it is going to give someone else a migraine. In fact quite the reverse – when I used to get migraine auras the best and quickest fix was a banana. Now that I eat a lot of fruit I don't get headaches at all.
Reductionism is the nemesis of objective analysis. It is impossible to find an objective view anywhere in the quit sugar camp. There are a number of people who make a good living out of it. The fundamental problem is the shocking advice that is given by these completely unqualified people. It is dangerous to health. Unfortunately some of them have developed a cult like following with 'devotees' propagating a religion. There is also a clear contempt for any advice from highly qualified people that appears to contradict their reductionist ideology.
If you have health problems it is very worthwhile investigating any possibility of a relationship with your diet. The best person to see for this is a naturopath. If you want to lose weight then eat whole foods, mostly plants, cooked by yourself. Don't eat any manufactured foods because they have been stripped of micronutrients and will make you sick sooner or later. I avoid wheat like the plague but that is a story for another day. And please get some exercise, you will feel much better for it.
The bottom line: giving up added sugars, refined carbohydrates and processed food is essential to your health and wellbeing. Focusing on a single nutrient as the enemy is unbalanced and flawed. If you are concerned about your diet then see a naturopath. The dietary advice given by the quit sugar camp is unqualified and dangerous by default.


Skye uses a "Trickstar" Deck that focuses on inflicting effect damage in small increments; Ai describes her Duel style as "poking with needles". Her main strategy is to first gain card advantage while Summoning multiple "Trickstar" monsters, then inflict effect damage to the opponent multiple times a turn, often using "Trickstar Lycoris" and "Trickstar Light Stage", and powering up "Trickstar Holly Angel" at the same time. Her Skill, "Trickstar Trick", plays into this combo, as it forces the opponent to draw cards and triggers the effect of "Lycoris".

Loan Watch: Dalot scores goal and assist, Garner and Levitt frustration, debuts for Pereira and Bernard
29 October 2020 John Walker Academy, First Team, Loan Watch, Managers, News, Opinion Comments Off on Loan Watch: Dalot scores goal and assist, Garner and Levitt frustration, debuts for Pereira and Bernard
Manchester United have twelve players on loan so far during the 2020/21 season; Tahith Chong, 20, at Werder Bremen, Matej Kovar, 20 at Swindon Town, Dylan Levitt, 19, at Charlton Athletic, Joel Pereira, 24, at Huddersfield Town, Aliou Traore, 19, at Stade Malherbe Caen, James Garner, 19, at Watford, Andreas Pereira, 24, at Lazio, Diogo Dalot, 21, at AC Milan, Max Taylor, 20, at Kidderminster Harriers, Di'Shon Bernard, 20, at Salford City, Max Haygarth, 18, at Brentford B and Jacob Carney, 19, at Brighouse Town. Many of the players on loan will be seeking to impress their loan clubs and United, seeking to find a way into first team football as soon as they can.
Tahith Chong
Last Match: Werder Bremen 1-1 TSG 1899 Hoffenheim – Bundesliga
Tahith Chong, 20, came off the bench in the 87th minute, replacing the injured Yuya Osako in the 1-1 draw with Hoffenheim on Sunday. Chong has not really had many minutes so far this season, starting just one match this season, which was the 4-1 defeat to Hertha Berlin in the Bundesliga, coming off the bench four times. Chong has played a total of 128 minutes of football this season, playing in the Bundesliga and the DFB-Pokal. He has scored one competitive goal in the German Cup competition and probably needs to so a lot more to get back in contention to start matches, which does not look good for him at this stage of the season.
Next Match: Eintracht Frankfurt (A) – 31 October – Bundesliga
Matej Kovar
Last Match: Northampton Town 2-1 Swindon Town – League One
Matej Kovar, 20, played another 90 minutes on Tuesday evening in the 2-1 defeat to Northampton Town in League One. Kovar saw himself conceded a further two goals for the club this season, conceding a total of 19 goals fo far this season. He will be hoping that the visit to the Kassam Stadium on Oxford this weekend will deliver an upturn in the clubs form. Swindon's next two matches against Oxford United at the Kassam Stadium and Accrington Stanley at the County Ground were suspended following recent positive COVID-19 tests at the club with players and staff needing to self isolate as per the EFL and Government guidance.
Next Match: Hull City (H) – 31 October – League One
Last Match: Charlton Athletic 2-0 Oxford United – League One
Dylan Levitt, 19, was an unused substitute in the 1-0 victory over Blackbool in League One on Tuesday evening. Both teams were reduced to ten-men in the match with Blackpool's James Husband sent off in the second minute and Charlton's Ben Purrington sent off for a second bookable offence in the 39th minute of the match. Levitt then started in the 2-0 victory over Northampton Town last Saturday but was taken off at half time with Darren Prattley, who replaced Levitt scoring the opening goal of the match. Levitt was then an unused substitute in the 2-0 victory over Oxford United, a match in which Ryan Inniss was send off in the 66th minute.
Next Match: Portsmouth (A) – 31 October – League One
Joel Pereira
Last Match: Huddersfield Town 0-0 Preston North End – Championship
Joel Pereira, 24, was once again an unused substitute in the 1-0 home victory over Derby County in the Championship last Tuesday evening, the 2-1 defeat to Preston North End in the Championship on Saturday and the 2-1 defeat to Birmingham City in the Championship on Wednesday evening. It does not seem like the player is going to get many opportunities at Huddersfield this season, having been on the bench for the last nine matches without a hint of action. It really does not look good for Pereira this season, especially with the expire of his contract at United coming at the end of the 2020/21 season. It seems unlikely that United will extend.
Next Match: Millwall (A) – 31 October – Championship
Aliou Traore
Last Match: Stade Malherbe Caen 1-0 En Avant de Guingamp – Ligue 2
Aliou Traore, 19, came off the bench for Caen in their 1-0 victory over Guingamp on Saturday. He has spent the past six weeks out go action through illness, playing for the youth team earlier this month. Traore came off the bench in the 71st minute of the match, replacing Kelian Nsona. The winner came in the 90th minute through substitute Jessy Deminguet, who had been on the pitch for four minutes, assisted by Yoann Court. Traore will be seeking to get back into a starting position for his club, starting with this weekend's clash with Paris FC, which could help him work out where his career is going to go from the end of the season.
Next Match: Paris FC (A) – 31 October – Ligue 2
Last Match: Wycombe Wanderers 1-1 Watford – Championship
James Garner, 19, started in the 1-1 draw with Bournemouth in the Championship on Saturday but was substituted by Étienne Capoue at the start of the second half after a mixed half for Watford. Stipe Perica, assisted by Ismaïla Sarr opened the scoring in the 12th minute of the match with Bournemouth equalising in added time. Garner then came off the bench, replacing Tom Cleverley at the death in the 1-1 draw with Wycombe Wanderers on Tuesday evening. Sarr opened the scoring in the 52nd minute of the match with Wycombe equalising 14 minutes later. It has been a tough week for Garner, who could be looking to start against Barnsley.
Next Match: Barnsley (A) – 31 October – Championship
Last Match: Clube Brugge KV 1-1 Lazio – UEFA Champions League
Andreas Pereira, 24, missed the 3-1 UEFA Champions League victory over Borussia Dortmund through injury last Tuesday evening. Pereira then made his debut, from the bench, replacing Luis Alberto at the start of the second half in the 2-1 victory over Bologna. Alberto scored the opening goal in the 54th minute with Ciro Immobile doubling the lead in the 76th minute. Lorenzo De Silvestri scored a consolation in added time. Pereira then made his Champions League debut for Lazio replacing the injured Patric in the 46th minute of the 1-1 draw with Brugge. Lazio opened the scoring in the 14th minute through Joaquín Correa with Brugge equalising in the 42nd.
Next Match: Torino (A) – 1 November – Serie A
Diogo Dalot
Last Match: AC Milan 3-0 Sparta Prague – UEFA Europa League
Diogo Dalot, 21, made his Milan debut last week in a 3-1 victory over Celtic in the Europa League. The 21-year-old started in the competition in his favoured right back position. Dalot played 90 minutes in the victory. He was then an unused substitute in the 3-3 draw with AS Roma in the Serie A. On Thursday evening, Dalot started for Milan in the left-back position in the Europa League against Sparta Prague. Milan won the match 3-0 – it could have been 4-0 had Zlatan Ibrahimovic converted a penalty. Dalot assisted for Rafael Leão's goal, putting Milan 2-0 up in the 57th minute, scoring a goal himself in the 67th minute of the match to complete the victory.
Next Match: Udinese (A) – 1 November – Serie A
Max Taylor
Last Match: Chorley 0-2 Kidderminster Harriers – National League North
Max Taylor, 20, played 90 minutes in the 2-0 victory over Chorley in the National League North. The defender will be seeking to get his playing career back to full speed after beating testicular cancer last year following nine weeks of chemotherapy. He was given a one-year contract extension at United which will expire at the end of the season but was loaned to Kidderminster until January, giving him first team experience which could allow him to find full fitness and form ahead of returning to United's U23s, which could in turn see him offered a longer contract at the Old Trafford club. His mettle was tested with cancer so has what it takes to succeed.
Next Match: Blyth Spartans (H) – 31 October – National League North
Di'Shon Bernard
Last Match: Salford City 1-1 Crawley Town – League Two
Di'Shon Bernard, 20, played no involvement in Salford's 3-0 home victory over Southend United on Tuesday evening. Former United forward James Wilson scored the second goal of the evening for Paul Scholes' side. He made his debut in the 1-1 draw with Crawley Town, replacing Oscar Threlkeld in the 62nd minute of the match. Former United player James Wilson put Salford ahead five minutes before Bernard was brought on but Crawley equalised in the 72nd minute through George Francomb. Bernard will be seeking to be involved in the clash with Oldham, which was the club that Scholes first managed.

Max Haygarth
Last Match: Hendon FC 2-6 Brentford B – London Senior Cup
Max Haygarth, 18, made his debut in the second round of the London Senior Cup in the 6-2 victory over Hendon FC on Tuesday evening at Silver Jubilee Park. Haygarth started the match on the bench and replaced Alex Gilbert in the 78th minute of the match, playing for the remaining twelve minutes of the victory. The 18-year-old will be seeking to play to a good level this season, after his debut with Brentford B, possible taking his experience back to United at the end of his loan spell with the club to hopefully propel himself into regular appearances at the U23 level, seeking to impress his manager and coaches at the club.
Next Match: Aldershot Town (H) – 30 October – Friendly
Jacob Carney
Last Match: Brighouse Town 2-0 Pontefract Collieries – NPL Division One NW
Jacob Carney, 19, made his second start for Brighouse Town on Tuesday evening in their 1-0 defeat to Pickering Town. Carney was named the Man of the Match in the defeat, which is good for the 19-year-old who will be seeking to further his career as a goalkeeper whilst on loan with the club. Carney started the 2-0 victory over Pontefract Collieries in the Northern Premier League Division One. It will be good for him to play first team football at this level, which might be seen as below the standard of U23 football at United, but will help him find his feet in the future, whether his career continues at United or beyond.
Next Match: Buxton FC (H) – 31 October – FA Trophy

Over time the air compressor pumps a real thick tar into the wet tank. Probably generates 1 gallon of it per 2 months.
Rebuilt compressors don't fix it. Been doing it for years.
Air compressor inlet come from the air cleaner tubing? Pull that line and see if it is oily.
You say the compressor is rebuilt and it didn't change anything? If it is not sucking oil on the inlet, then it has to be coming from the pump.
When mine needed rebuilt, it only made oil milkshakes(water, oil, foam), not tar.
If you got one of those little donut air filters on there ditch it and plumb it in to the main engine air inlet or the inlet manifold that will turbo charge it! !
Really? On the boost side? Never really thought about that. Would that really work okay?
I still run the little box filter on the side of the pump. I've contemplated changing it over to the air cleaner pipe. I have the plate to convert it, as it came on the 237. I just never plumbed it so I used my old 673 filter.
It's set up as Terry stated. My e7 runs off the turbo side, but the endt676 runs it off the suction side between turbo and filter.
If air filter is plug the motor needs air those individual air filters pick up a lot moisture .
Your problem. Is my problem, not a hijack!
I'm suspecting the "rebuilt" compressors are not actually rebuilt. I've popped at least 2 in trying to fix this, still does it.
