Christopher James Dijak (nascido em 23 de abril de 1987) é um lutador profissional americano. Ele atualmente trabalha na WWE onde atua na marca NXT sob o nome de ringue DIJAK (muitas vezes estilizado em letras maiúsculas como DIJAK).

Dijak começou sua carreira no wrestling profissional em 2013 sob o nome de ringue Donovan Dijak, trabalhando em várias promoções no circuito independente, mais notavelmente na Chaotic Wrestling, onde treinou. Em 2014, ele assinou um contrato com a Ring of Honor (ROH), onde venceu o Top Prospect Tournament de 2015. Depois de deixar a ROH em 2017, ele assinou um contrato com a WWE. Ele foi designado para sua marca NXT sob o nome de ringue de Dominik Dijakovic. Em setembro de 2020, ele estreou no elenco principal como parte da facção Retribution como T-Bar. Embora o Retribution tenha se dissolvido em março de 2021, ele continuou se unindo ao colega Mace até ser convocado para a marca SmackDown no WWE Draft de 2021.

Início de vida
Dijak cresceu em Lunenburg, Massachusetts e foi um atleta de destaque de três esportes na Escola Secundária de Lunenburg. Dijak se destacou especificamente no futebol, pois foi fortemente recrutado por muitos dos principais programas de futebol universitário da área da Nova Inglaterra. Dijak foi nomeado o Atleta Masculino do Ano do Sentinel & Enterprise em 2005, uma seleção All-Star do Central Massachusetts Shriners, e foi nomeado capitão e selecionado como MVP da equipe durante sua temporada sênior. Por fim, Dijak aceitou uma bolsa de estudos para jogar futebol americano universitário pelo UMass Minutemen.

Depois de sua temporada de calouro na UMass e lutando para se ajustar no grande campus, Dijak finalmente decidiu se transferir para a Universidade Estadual de Bridgewater, uma faculdade de artes liberais de médio porte localizada a aproximadamente 32 quilômetros de Boston, Massachusetts. Na Bridgewater, Dijak se destacou tanto no futebol quanto no basquete, liderando o time de futebol em tackles e sacks em seus anos júnior e sênior, e liderou o time de basquete em rebotes em seu último ano. Dijak também ganhou honras de todas as ligas em ambos os esportes. Ele também foi nomeado para a equipe All-American da NCAA Division III Football East Region em sua temporada sênior jogando pelos Bears. Dijak se formou na Bridgewater State em 2010 com um diploma de bacharel em Justiça Criminal.

Carreira na luta livre profissional

Chaotic Wrestling (2013–2017)
Após duas derrotas em promoções menores, Dijak se juntou à Chaotic Wrestling, treinando com Brian Fury e Todd Hanson. Ele fez sua estréia em agosto de 2013 vencendo Vern Vicallo, e permaneceu invicto até julho de 2014, quando perdeu para o campeão de Chaotic Wrestling, Mark Shurman. Depois de ganhar outra chance pelo título em uma luta fatal four-way no mês seguinte, ele derrotou Shurman em sua revanche em 24 de outubro e conquistou o Campeonato dos Pesos Pesados da CW. Após um reinado de 148 dias, ele perdeu o título contra o Chase Del Monte em 21 de março de 2015. Em 2016, Dijak se uniu a Mikey Webb para formar a dupla The American Destroyers. Dijak e Webb venceriam o Campeonato de Duplas da Chaotic Wrestling ao derrotar The Logan Brothers em 26 de dezembro de 2016, antes de perdê-los menos de um mês depois para The Mill City Hooligans. Em sua última luta pela promoção, Dijak derrotou Christian Casanova e Josh Briggs em uma luta triple threat pelo Campeonato da Nova Inglaterra Chaotic Wrestling. Imediatamente após a luta, ele deixou o título vago.

Ring of Honor (2014–2017)
Ele fez sua estréia no Ring of Honor em 27 de julho no Future of Honor 2, primeiro derrotando Stokely Hathaway e depois caindo em derrota para Moose. Dijak venceu o Top Prospect Tournament de 2015, derrotando Will Ferrara nas finais. Esta vitória permitiu-lhe enfrentar Jay Lethal pelo Campeonato Mundial de Televisão da ROH. No entanto, ele se recusou a aproveitar esta oportunidade e, em vez disso, juntou-se à The House of Truth de Truth Martini, estabelecendo-se como um heel. Sua primeira luta como membro da House of Truth aconteceu em 7 de março, em parceria com J Diesel e derrotando a equipe de Brutal Burgers (Bob Evans e Cheeseburger). Em 19 de junho, no Best in the World 2015, ele lutou contra Mark Briscoe perdendo. Ele conseguiu vencer sua próxima luta pay-per-view contra Takaaki Watanabe no Death Before Dishonor XIII.

Em 19 de dezembro (exibido em 13 de janeiro de 2016), ele foi banido do estábulo de Truth Martini, inicialmente virando face no processo. Nas gravações da ROH TV de 27 de fevereiro, Dijak saiu com o Prince Nana e atacou Truth Martini, virando-se novamente e fazendo uma rara reviravolta com Jay Lethal e se tornando a última joia da coroa do príncipe Nana na embaixada. Dijak anunciou sua saída da ROH via Twitter em 12 de fevereiro de 2017.

WWE

NXT (2017–2020)
Em janeiro de 2017, a WWE retirou uma oferta de contrato de Dijak, após uma ameaça legal da ROH, que ainda o mantinha sob contrato. No mês seguinte, Dijak optou por não assinar novamente com a ROH, essencialmente colocando sua carreira em espera, esperando por outra oferta de contrato da WWE. Em 20 de julho, foi relatado que Dijak estava terminando suas reservas independentes antes de ingressar na WWE. Dijak reportou ao WWE Performance Center em 21 de agosto. Sua assinatura foi anunciada pela empresa em 5 de setembro.

Dijak fez sua estréia no programa de desenvolvimento da WWE, NXT, em 23 de setembro. Sua estreia na televisão, sob seu nome verdadeiro, aconteceu em 30 de maio de 2018, com uma derrota contra Ricochet. Em julho de 2018, a WWE revelou o novo nome de Dijak como Dominik Dijakovic. As promoções começaram a aparecer no episódio de 5 de dezembro de 2018 do NXT, promovendo a estreia de Dominik Dijakovic. Dijakovic fez sua estreia como vilão no episódio de 19 de dezembro do NXT, derrotando Aaron Mackey. Após a WrestleMania 35, ele foi definido para rivalizar com o então Campeão Norte Americano do NXT Velveteen Dream pelo título. No entanto, em abril de 2019, ele sofreu uma ruptura no menisco que exigiria cirurgia. Ele estaria fora de ação até o final de julho, quando retornou em um evento ao vivo do NXT

No episódio de 13 de novembro de 2019 do NXT, Dijakovic virou face quando se juntou ao Team Ciampa para a partida anual da WarGames com Tommaso Ciampa, Matt Riddle e Keith Lee contra The Undisputed Era no TakeOver: WarGames. Riddle passou a deixar a equipe para perseguir sua rivalidade com Finn Bálor. No evento, Dijakovic e Team Ciampa derrotaram The Undisputed Era, com o lugar de Riddle sendo ocupado por Kevin Owens. No episódio de 29 de janeiro de 2020 do NXT, Dijakovic derrotou Damian Priest para se tornar o desafiante número um pelo Campeonato Norte Americano do NXT de Keith Lee no NXT TakeOver: Portland em 16 de fevereiro, onde ele não conseguiu ganhar o título. Após a partida, Lee e Dijakovic apertaram as mãos em sinal de respeito. Após a vitória de Lee pelo Campeonato do NXT contra Adam Cole no NXT: The Great American Bash, Dijakovic foi desafiado por Lee pelo Campeonato do NXT e pelo Campeonato Norte Americano do NXT no episódio seguinte, mas não conseguiu capturar os títulos. Ele foi então atacado por Karrion Kross durante uma entrevista nos bastidores, resultando em uma luta entre os dois no episódio de 22 de julho do NXT, que Dijakovic perdeu.

RETRIBUTION (2020–2021)
No episódio do Raw de 21 de setembro, ele foi revelado como membro do grupo de vilões Retribution, sob o nome de ringue T-Bar, com uma nova roupa e uma máscara. No episódio de 5 de outubro do Raw, Mustafa Ali foi revelado como o líder da stable. Nas semanas seguintes, a facção teve pouco sucesso. No Fastlane em 21 de março de 2021, T-Bar e Mace atacaram Ali, dissolvendo o grupo. No episódio de 12 de abril do Raw, T-Bar e Mace atacaram Drew McIntyre, mostrando sinais de se juntar ao The Hurt Business. Na semana seguinte no Raw, T-Bar foi finalmente desmascarado junto com Mace em uma luta de duplas contra McIntyre e Braun Strowman, na qual T-Bar e Mace venceram por desqualificação. Mais tarde, em uma entrevista, eles confirmaram o início de sua corrida de duplas. Após algumas semanas de ausência da televisão, T-Bar e Mace foram colocados como lumberjacks em uma luta Lumberjack entre John Morrison e Damian Priest no Raw de 17 de maio.

Como parte do Draft de 2021, Mace foi convocado para a marca SmackDown enquanto T-Bar permaneceu na marca Raw, dissolvendo assim a equipe. No Raw de 25 de outubro, T-Bar foi desqualificado em uma luta contra o Campeão dos Estados Unidos Damian Priest depois de jogar uma cadeira de escritório no campeão. No Raw de 1º de novembro, ele perdeu para Priest em uma luta sem desqualificação na qual Priest manteve o título dos EUA. Desde então, ele tem aparecido principalmente no WWE Main Event.

Outras mídias
Como T-Bar, ele fez sua estréia no videogame como um personagem jogável no WWE 2K22, mas também foi apresentado no modo MyRise do jogo como Dominik Dijakovic. Este personagem só estava disponível no modo MyRise, no entanto, e originalmente não era acessível pelos jogadores. Devido a pedidos de fãs esmagadores (incluindo um pedido do próprio Dijak), WWE2K adicionou o personagem Dominik Dijakovic (assim como seis outros personagens originalmente bloqueados atrás de MyRise (Alexa Bliss de 2020, Shinsuke Nakamura de 2021, King Booker de 2006, King Corbin de 2020, Nikki Cross de 2021 e Shawn Michaels de 2018)) no patch 1.12 lançado em 16 de maio de 2022,[35] dando a Dijak dois personagens no jogo.

It's been a long road, but here we are, finally in our lovely little nana house. We wanted this house as soon as we saw it. It has so much potential. It's been well cared for, but needs an update – paint, carpets, light fittings, drapes, gardens. We have so many plans for the place I can hardly contain my excitement. I want to do everything right now, but I also want to take our time and savour the transformation at the same time.
The house isn't without issues. There are cracks in the exterior brickwork that will require fairly major repair. The en suite bathroom has a broken waste-water pipe, making it unusable. There is a large crack in the concrete floor running the width of the house across the two main bedrooms. There are numerous hairline cracks in the concrete floor all over the house. There is no carpet, due to flooding from the broken waste pipe. And let's not even talk about the fact that we found out today that our sewer system is not working, so we can't flush. We've been given a chemical toilet, and there are portaloos in the street.
But these are all solvable problems, given enough time and energy and money – things we have in abundance. I feel very lucky to have my own little nest to share with my beloved Frompsons.
Next Article We have carpet!
Like you attitude 🙂 I feel so lucky we got a place post-quake that has no visible damage to it.
And it is a lovely family home filled with a lovely warm energy. I am sure you will be extremely happy there. Foot note for Mrs Frayle:: I am your Mum too now so better change that sign on loo to just Mum. Welcome to the chemical toilet club!! Actually really good for short legged people like myself and grandchildren. Jameson loves ours.
Thank you my darlings. So I don't have to go dig a hole in the garden after all. Thank you.


Comfrey is noted by both organic gardeners and herbalists for its great usefulness and versatility. Of particular interest is the 'Bocking 14' cultivar of Russian Comfrey. This strain was developed during the 1950s by Lawrence D. Hills, who founded the organic gardening organization now known as Garden Organic.
Lawrence D. Hills was the world authority on comfrey. In this book, he wrote for farmers and gardeners in all countries, showing how this useful plant could be cultivated in both tropical and temperate zones to produce a crop equally rewarding for gardener, smallholder and mechanized farmer.
Subtitled 'Past, Present and Future,' on its publication in 1976, this was the most comprehensive survey of the properties and cultivation of comfrey ever, and Comfrey remains undoubtedly the essential book on the subject, as well as a lasting testament to Lawrence D. Hills's indefatigable efforts to achieve a better understanding of it.


The Legal Service Board has today published a consultation on its internal governance rules (IGR) for the legal services regulators.
"Independent regulation gives confidence to consumers, providers, investors and society as a whole that legal services work in the public interest and support the rule of law.
The Legal Services Act 2007 (the Act) does not create a framework in which all approved regulators (AR) are structurally separate from representative bodies, and does not permit the LSB to require this. Instead, the LSB must make rules that apply to regulators in the sector.
Putting in place IGR was one of the LSB's first priorities on being established. Since then, we have seen a number of disagreements about independence matters from a range of different ARs and regulatory bodies. We have also heard suggestions on how regulatory independence is best achieved, including through changes to the IGR.
The LSB's view is that regulation should ideally be structurally, legally and culturally independent of the professions and government. A review of the legislative framework by government for the regulation of legal services, however, is unlikely for the time being.


I posted about Captchas–those squiggly barely-decipherable words used to filter robots from accessing protected websites–two years ago. Their story is fascinating, not well-known, and worth mentioning again. Even the name is cool: Captcha is an acronym for "completely automated public Turing test to tell computers and humans apart." As the NY Times reported Monday Captchas serve a purpose in addition to separating humans from machines: they are bits of text from old books that require correction after the books have been scanned. Invented by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University they are used by the Google Book Project, the New York Times, and others transforming old and archival materials into accurate digital copy. It's brilliantly simple: allow thousands of computer users to interpret unclear text snippets, collate the results, deduce the correct meaning. The Carnegie Mellon researchers estimate that "humans around the world decode at least 200 million Captchas per day, at 10 seconds per Captcha. This works out to about 500,000 hours per day . . ." This explains why some Captchas are impossible to decode. They are flyspecked text from musty centuries-old books.
This is so crazy, and brilliant. I persistently deactivate my facebook account when I have exams, and when I deactivate it – I have to actually fill in this information. I didn't know I was doing this for a greater good. This is really astonishing to me, and I just told my friend about it who said that sometimes she just can't figure it out. I went onto read her the last few lines from the blog article. This is crazy, because it just shows you how much a few seconds a day by millions of people can do.
I also had no idea that Captchas served this purpose and from now on, I'll actually feel better every time I am required to decode one. It really is a pain because sometimes it takes a few tries. I always wondered why they just couldn't make the words more legible to read. This just goes to show that there is always more to something than the eye can see.
This is insane! I would always get so frustrated with those letterings; more recently it was happening when I would try to send e-mails. I think it is the coolest thing that they are previously coded books, I it is incredible to see that it is a way to distinguish between human and computer.

Ruobing Li Receives Pfizer Grant for COVID-19 Vaccine Hesitancy Research
SoCJ Assistant Professor Ruobing Li
Ruobing Li, an assistant professor of mass communication at the School of Communication and Journalism (SoCJ), recently received a $100,000 grant from Pfizer to research COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy.
"The project will offer valuable insights for researchers and public health practitioners and help them better understand the causes and effects of vaccine hesitancy," said Li. "This work can help to create more effective COVID-19 vaccine campaigns, with the ultimate goal of ending the pandemic and saving lives."
Li has been researching vaccine hesitancy for several years, and previously won a grant from Stony Brook University for her research into vaccine hesitancy and media exposure. The Pfizer grant will allow her to conduct a meta-analysis, a cumulative study of prior research done to derive conclusions from a field of research, on the various factors that cause vaccine hesitancy across a wide range of demographics, socioeconomics, educational levels and behavioral responses.
"Among the large number of factors that may contribute to an individual's vaccine hesitancy, we will be able to tell other researchers what are the most influential ones for each population or subpopulation," Li said. "And we can also identify important moderating variables that could tell us how different factors predict vaccine hesitancy differently to resolve some of the conflicting findings that exist in the vaccine hesitancy literature."
"COVID-19 has claimed many lives, so we're particularly interested in examining what groups/subgroups of people are reluctant to get vaccinated," said Micheal Vafealdis, assistant professor of public relations at Auburn University and Li's partner in the project. "By analyzing the existing published research, we aim to provide a better understanding of the structural and social barriers that contribute to COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy."
"I look forward to starting the project in collaboration with Dr. Li and Dr. Vafeiadis," said Fuyuan Shen, a researcher at Penn State and mentor of Li's. "COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy poses a real challenge to public health. The grant will allow us to gather evidence from a range of sources and investigate the complex individual and social factors that cause vaccine hesitancy. I hope that the project will provide valuable insights for future vaccination campaigns."
By learning more about those who tend to be vaccine hesitant, Li and her colleagues seek to help inform researchers, policymakers, communications experts and others about the underlying factors of COVID vaccine hesitancy and how best to address them.
"Though the worst of the COVID pandemic may have ebbed, the lessons we can and must learn are critical for our society and public health," said Laura Lindenfeld, dean of the School of Communication and Journalism and executive director of the Alda Center for Communicating Science. "Vaccine hesitancy and skepticism is not going away, and the work Ruobing and her colleagues are doing to help understand these issues will help us better communicate and engage all segments of society in the future."

Биопотенциал мозга — обобщенная характеристика взаимодействия зарядов, находящихся в исследуемой области мозга, с зарядом наложенного на эту область электрода. Количественно биопотенциал измеряется напряжением между электродом и условным нулём (землёй).

Первым, кто сообщил об электрической активности мозга у животных был Ричард Катон в 1875 году. Впервые успешно зарегистрировать электрическую активность мозга человека с помощью поверхностных электродов кожи головы удалось немецкому физиологу Хансу Бергеру в 1929 году.

Mohamed Osman Mohamud, 19, a Somali-born U.S. citizen, was arrested 18 minutes before the tree lighting was to occur.
Oregon officials thwarted a bomb plot at a Christmas tree lighting ceremony in Oregon today.
Law enforcement agencies have thwarted an attempt to blow up a car bomb at an annual Christmas tree lighting ceremony in Portland, Oregon, officials said early Saturday.
The Justice Department identified the chief suspect as 19-year-old Mohamed Osman Mohamud of the town of Corvallis, saying he was a naturalized US citizen of Somali descent.
According to a criminal complaint, Mohamud was arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Portland police at approximately 5:40 pm Friday (0040 GMT Saturday) after he attempted to detonate what he believed to be an explosives-laden van that was parked near the tree lighting ceremony in Portland's Pioneer Courthouse Square.
The Portland Tribune has more on the attempted bombing.
A 19-year-old Corvallis man was arrested Friday afternoon on charges that he planned to set off a car bomb during Portland's Christmas tree lighting ceremony in Pioneer Courthouse Square.
The U.S. Department of Justice said Mohamed Osman Mohamud, a naturalized U.S. citizen from Somalia was taken into custody at about 5:40 p.m. by the FBI and Portland police officers on charges of attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction (explosives) in a plot to detonate a vehicle bomb at the ceremony.
His arrest was part of a long-term undercover operation, during which Mohamud had been watched closely for months as his alleged bomb plot developed. The explosive device in the car was inert and the public was never in danger.
Mohamud will be arraigned Monday in Portland's federal court. If convicted, he could face a maximum sentence of life in prison and a $250,000 fine.
"This defendant's chilling determination is a stark reminder that there are people — even here in Oregon — who are determined to kill Americans," said Dwight C. Holton, Oregon's U.S. attorney.

0213D: 30 Years Free of the Marcoses?
Today is the 30th anniversary of the 1986 People Power Revolution that overthrew the dictator Ferdinand Marcos after his over twenty year reign as the leader of the Philippines. Over 70,000 people were arrested, 34,000 tortured, 3,240 people salvaged and at least 398 people missing. 75,730 people filed cases for human rights violations during the Martial Law years. Just some of the many numbers that we need to remember when we look back at Martial Law and the Marcos regime as a whole.
However Imelda Marcos, wife of Ferdinand Marcos, is a sitting Congresswoman and is running for her third term as the representative of the second district of Ilocos Norte. Her son Bongbong Marcos is a senator and is running for Vice President in the coming 2016 Elections. Imee Marcos is the Governor of Ilocos Norte and is also running for her third term. Clearly memories are fuzzy and the Marcos family remains very much in power.
There's a strong social media movement now to remind younger generations of the horrors of Martial Law and the injustices and corruption of the Marcos years. But it may be a little late given the fact it's in response to another social media movement to praise Marcos for all that he had supposedly done for the country (albeit while lining his own pockets through graft and corruption).
The Philippines is a country that is scarred and it's easy to want to just forget about that trauma and move on to other things. But we can't forget and we owe it to ourselves to educate future generations so that we don't fall into the trap of dictatorial rule ever again.
At least that's the best that we can hope for at this point.

Numbers 33 is a step by step guide of each location the children of Israel stayed in during their exodus from Egypt to the borders of Canaan; the Promised Land. God gave specific instructions in verses 52-56. They were to "drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy all their pictures, and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down all their high places" (v. 52).
If they did not remove the inhabitants completely, "those which ye let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell. Moreover it shall come to pass, that I shall do unto you, as I thought to do unto them" (v. 55-56).
This is an incredible verse. We will find out later that the Israelites did, in fact, allow some of the Palestinians and Canaanites to remain. Fast forward 3500 years and those who are NOT supposed to be in Israel are not only still there, but are absolutely thorns in the sides of the Jews.
The destruction of the pictures, molten images, and high places is a reference to the gods of the Canaanites. The LORD "executed judgments" (Num. 33:4) against the gods in Egypt (see my Notes on Exodus 7-12). Now, he wants any remnant of false gods eradicated.
Numbers 34 contains the geographic information for God's intended borders for what would become Israel. It is much larger than the state that exists today. Those who are in the lands named in this chapter are trespassing, but the Israelites are the ones who allowed them to stay. They have been paying the price for centuries.
Chapters 35-36 are more rules concerning the punishment for murder and manslaughter, as well as the rights of inheritance for the tribes. There is an interesting "type" of Christ in Num. 35:25.
When a person commits murder, their punishment is for the victim's revenger to come kill them. When a person commits manslaughter, however, they are given the chance to flee into a different city. If they leave, they are on their own and the revenger can kill them. If they stay, they must remain until the death of the high priest.
Before Christ's death, those who died were sent to "Abraham's Bosom," not Heaven. The "Old Testament Saints" were given refuge from torment in Hades or Hell. It was not until Jesus Christ, the High Priest died, that they were free to enter heaven when Christ ascended after his resurrection (Eph. 4:8).
Salvation for us is not the same as it was for the Old Testament Israelites. Theirs was a system of grace AND works. Ours is grace only. We only need to repent of our sins, believe that Christ died for our sins, and accept his free and easy gift of grace to be saved. Just ask Christ to come into your heart and declare him your savior and you shall be saved.
It is so easy to do, though living like a Christian should is incredibly difficult. Our standard is sinless perfection; and we can never attain it. The world sees us as unintelligent rubes who are suckers for a good trick, or that we are lunatics for believing in a magical sky God with supernatural powers. We pay the price every day as we are mocked or murdered.
In the end, our side wins. My God defeated death when he rose from the dead. My God will defeat Satan and his armies at Armageddon, and we will join Peter, Paul, Moses, Abraham, Jacob, David, and Jesus Christ himself in paradise for all eternity.
Faith is not an easy choice, but we find ourselves taking leaps of faith every day. We have faith that we will wake up tomorrow. We have faith that our friends will be there when we need them. We have faith that science is a proper tool for acquiring knowledge of our world. All those faiths will let us down, but we still hold onto them.
Faith in Christ will never let you down. Seek and you will find. Believe and you will be blessed.

Hemp entrepreneurs can't wait to put U.S.-grown crop to use (interview)
Published: Nov 7, 2014, 6:14 pm • Updated: Feb 9, 2016, 10:14 am
By Elana Ashanti Jefferson, The Cannabist Staff
Colorado hemp farmers and entrepreneurs spent this past growing season experimenting with cultivars to find the ideal plant for our state's high and dry growing conditions.
But hemp is making inroads even in states where marijuana legalization has yet to gain momentum.
Some of the products offered in the Hemp & Honey Plus line created by Scott Sondles and Michael Bumgarner. (Provided by HempStrong Brands)
Consider HempStrong Brands, a grassroots business initiative started in Kentucky and Ohio by two entrepreneurial cousins with little connection to the legalization debate. Their long-term goal, which began with the pampering skincare line Hemp & Honey Plus, is to create local, sustainable hemp business opportunities.
Kentucky was once the country's leading hemp producing state, according to the Kentucky Department of Agriculture. Now Kentucky is one of 10 states named in the 2014 Farm Bill, which relaxes federal drug laws to make way for renewed hemp cultivation.
Ohio also was one of the country's busier hemp-growing states before the crop became illegal as part of the 1970 Controlled Substances Act.
About Indo Expo: Cannabis businesses converging for industry trade show in Denver, Nov. 15-16
Hemp & Honey Plus currently sources its hemp seed oil from Canada, which reported nearly 39,000 acres of industrial hemp in 2011 and is estimated to export more than $10 million of hemp annually.
Here, HempStrong owners Scott Sondles, 27, and Michael Bumgarner, 30, talk about their push to shift hemp sourcing to American farmers. Sondles is also the author of "Hemponomics: Unleashing the Power of Sustainable Growth" (Amazon Digital Services).
• The Cannabist: How did two all-American guys such as yourselves develop an interest in hemp?
Scott Sondles: In college (at the University of Kentucky in Lexington), I had a custom clothing company. We sold T-shirts to bars. A customer came to me and asked about hemp clothing. Like most people, I didn't know (about) hemp, but once I found out about the textiles and the seeds and oil and all of the benefits of hemp, I was hooked.
Michael Bumgarner: There are a lot of small farmers here in Ohio who would love to find alternative commodities to grow that are easy and require less input than corn. With hemp, that became an objective of ours. We want to lead the way in the Midwest, educating people and encouraging common-sense legislation to cultivate industrial hemp. We feel like there's an opportunity with hemp to create jobs and improve the economy. If Ohio legalizes industrial hemp, we could put some small farmers back to work while improving the environment and offering healthy lifestyle products to the consumer.

• The Cannabist: Particularly with the snowballing national push toward some form of cannabis legalization, there may be an abundance of entrepreneurs pushing into hemp. What sets HempStrong Brands apart from other like-minded entrepreneurial efforts?
SS: The reason we started HempStrong Brands was to work with all these new hemp entrepreneurs. We don't think of it as a negative that more people are getting into this marketplace. It's a benefit.
MB: We are really trying to work this issue at the local level. For instance, I'm an Ohio Farm Bureau member, so I'm trying to get more involved with farmers. … So many hemp business leaders are West Coast-based. We are uniquely situated in the Midwest, at the heart of American farming.
Hemp farming: Coverage of the re-emergence of industrial hemp in the United States as federal laws loosen
• The Cannabist: What is your personal outlook for hemp in America in the years to come?
SS: We believe that it's hemp seed that's really going to push the hemp industry forward in the short term. A hemp fiber industry will come along after that.
• The Cannabist: Hemp & Honey Plus was the first strategic partnership for HempStrong Brands. What's next?
MB: We'll launch our next HempStrong Brand during the first quarter of 2015. It complements our skincare line. We're also launching a nonprofit organization that complements all of our brands. We will be donating a portion of our revenue to fight hunger and encourage healthy eating.
Kentucky hemp harvest: Harbinger of things to come?
• The Cannabist: Canada is currently the source for the hemp seed oil that goes into Hemp & Honey Plus products. When do you expect to start working with an American hemp producer?
MB: We're coming to Denver for the Indo Expo (cannabis-industry business convention Nov. 15-16). We have meetings already in place (with American hemp producers). … As soon as the hemp supply meets our demand, we definitely want to source our materials from American companies.

The growth of the global pharmaceutical industry and rising demand for functional foods has driven the microencapsulation market, states Transparency Market Research in its latest report. The report is titled "Microencapsulation Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2014 - 2020" and is available for sale on the company website. According to the report, the worldwide market for microencapsulation is likely to grow from US$4.77 billion in 2013 to US$9.13billion in 2020, developing at a healthy CAGR of 9.7% from 2014 to 2020. The global microencapsulation market is also driven by the increasing acceptance of cleaning agents and specialty detergents and the prospective demand from the paints and coatings industry. However, need for extensive research to choose core materials and the appropriate technology is anticipated to impede the growth of the microencapsulation market.
On the basis of application, the microencapsulation market is categorized into household products, pharmaceuticals, food additives, agrochemicals, and others such as commodity and specialty chemicals for industries. Accounting for more than 65% of the microencapsulation market in 2013, pharmaceuticals formed the largest application segment. Microencapsulation in the pharmaceuticals industry allows for targeted drug delivery and release, sustained and controlled release of active ingredients, and masking of chemicals odors. Microencapsulated dietary supplements, nutrients, food enzymes, preservatives, and prebiotics help improve the texture, taste, shelf life, and nutrient content of food products. The demand for antimicrobial cleaning agents and fragrant detergents, and changing consumer preferences toward prebiotics and dietary supplements is expected to make household products and food additives the fastest developing application segments by the end of the forecast period.
By region, the global microencapsulation market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World. North America and Europe together held 70% of the global microencapsulation market in 2013, driven by advanced healthcare industries, large-scale usage of microencapsulation technology in pharmaceutical and biotechnological research, and increased acceptance of functional food additives. However, growing consumer awareness regarding the benefits of microencapsulation technology, rise in purchasing power, rapid growth of industries such as surfactants, pharmaceuticals, and food, and changing dietary and retail preferences are likely to boost the microencapsulation market in Asia Pacific and Rest of the World. The report indicates that the Asia Pacific region is expected to develop at a 10.5% CAGR owing to rising demand from numerous applications, making it the most rapidly growing regional market for microencapsualtion.
Major players providing customized microencapsulation solutions to clients across a wide range of application industries include Capsulae, Dow Corning Corporation, Reed Pacific, Evonik Industries AG, 3M, Encapsys, Aveka, Inc., Taste Tech Ltd., Microtek Laboratories, Inc., Lipo Technologies, BASF S.E., Ronald T. Dodge Company, Balchem Corporation, GAT Microencapsulation GmbH, and Bayer AG.


Determination of jurisdiction and venue are important considerations in any personal injury lawsuit. It's not always a straightforward issue, particularly if litigants are from different states or there is a question of federal law.
For the most part, injury lawsuits stemming from car accidents and truck accidents are going to fall under the purview of state courts. However, a court has to have personal and/or subject matter jurisdiction before it can hear a case. That means either the defendant resides in that district or it is the judicial district in which a substantial part of the events or omissions that gave rise to the claim occurred.
If a lawsuit is filed in the wrong venue, the court will likely dismiss the case without prejudice, meaning you can file again. Sometimes, the court will transfer the case to the proper district, but only if it's "in the interest of justice." However, if the case is dismissed, the time spent in the wrong court consumes valuable time that could count against you in terms of the statute of limitations on your case.
That's why it's so important to hire an experienced Montgomery injury lawyer who is familiar with both state and federal courts in Alabama, and knows well how to properly ascertain jurisdiction before a case is ever filed.
The recent case of Nuckols v. Stevens et al., before the U.S. District Court in the Middle District of Alabama, Northern Division, is a good example of how improper jurisdiction can affect a case.
Here, plaintiff is a resident of Alabama who sued two individuals for injuries she sustained near a surf shop parking lot in Florida. Plaintiff was a passenger in a vehicle attempting to turn right into the parking lot. One of the defendants was operating another vehicle in the same lane, but failed to stop the car and properly yield. The vehicle in which plaintiff sat was rear-ended, and plaintiff suffered back and neck injuries. The second defendant was owner of the vehicle.
Plaintiff filed lawsuit in federal court, seeking compensatory and punitive damages in excess of $75,000.
Plaintiff likely has a strong case against defendants, but the problem was, she provided no evidence to support that venue was proper in Alabama federal court. Defendants did not waive an improper venue motion.
When pressed by the court to prove why the venue was proper, she responded she lives in Alabama and currently received medical treatment there and believed it "the most convenient." She failed to cite any suggestion that a substantial portion of events occurred in the district. In fact, the crash happened in Florida and the alleged negligent maintenance, inspection and repair of the defendant vehicle happened there, too.
The fact that plaintiff is receiving medical treatment here in Alabama is not enough to assert proper venue in Alabama.
Rather than transfer the case, the court dismissed it on the grounds plaintiff had not asserted doing so would pose a bar to refile of the action in the proper venue due to statute of limitation issues, and further, it was found her attorney simply made an erroneous guess with regard to jurisdiction — an obvious error.

Report: New Chevrolet Police Car to be Announced Monday, Likely to be G8-Based
Pontiac G8 Sedan News
by writer: Rory Jurnecka October 02, 2009
According to recent reports, there may be more to Holden's Pontiac G8-nosed special edition Commodore SS than meets the eye. Automotive News claims that Chevrolet will announce plans on Monday to build a new rear-drive police car that, according to AN research, will be based on the Zeta platform from the discontinued Pontiac G8 sedan - or the Holden Commodore, as it's known in Australia.
The Pontiac G8 tie-in comes courtesy of various reports, one of the most recent coming from The Sydney Morning Herald. It quotes GM boss Fritz Henderson as confirming that a deal is currently being worked out to supply Australian-built police cars to the U.S.
"We've been working on a package for police applications," Henderson said in an interview at the Frankfurt Motor Show. "I just think that's going to work. We're pretty optimistic about it and that product will be sourced in Australia."
Holden has reportedly been searching for a new customer base for the G8 since its cancellation. Back in June, rumors flew that the G8 would be revitalized by GM in the U.S. as the next Caprice - extending that badge's lifespan beyond its year-end expiration date. Ultimately, that plan was binned by GM brass. According to Holden spokesman, Scott Whiffin, the automaker has continued searching for an export market, having shipped 36,500 Pontiac-badged Commodores to the U.S. in 2008, representing two-thirds of Holden's total exports and about $1 billion Australian dollars in revenue.
"When the Pontiac deal fell through we said then it was a shame, it was a great car, but understood the reasons for it," Whiffin said. "And we said that we would get up, dust ourselves off, and find other opportunities. And that work has pretty much been going on since that was announced."
According to Automotive News, Chevrolet spokesman Brian Goebel would not disclose whether the soon-to-be-announced police vehicle would be Holden-based.
Holden Commodore architecture currently underpins the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro. The Pontiac brand is to be terminated at year's end, making 2009 the brand's last model year.

New Methods, Funding Propel Neurogenetics
July 14, 2014 Candice Lange Clinical Research 0
Within the last 2 years (2010 written), new DNA sequencing technologies, dubbed NextGen ("next generation"), have been introduced that are revolutionizing the field of neurogenetics. As these advances gain recognition within and outside the medical community, the pace of progress is quickening, with the help of support from broad-based advocacy groups and more funding options. These technologies are already bringing greater diagnostic opportunities to practice, although the time might not yet be ripe for translating the results into information useful for the clinical management of patients.
"For rare diseases, this is a real game-changer type of technology," commented Matthew J. Huentelman, Ph.D., a neurogeneticist affiliated with the Translational Genomics Research Institute in Phoenix. "We have had some significant leaps in what we can do with the human genome over the past couple of years, especially in the mechanics and chemistry of how sequencing is done. Several companies have built machines that sequence DNA in fundamentally different ways than we did 5-10 years ago." Since 2007, Dr. Huentelman has been applying NextGen technology to the study of Alzheimer's disease and autism.
Whole exome DNA sequencing is one of the NextGen technologies that are being applied to neurologic disorders. Unlike whole genome sequencing, whole exome DNA sequencing focuses on the small portion of the genome (less than 2%) that contains protein-coding bits of DNA, known as the exome. For example, Dr. Murat Gunel, chief of the Neurovascular Surgery Program and codirector of the Program on Neurogenetics at Yale University, New Haven, Conn., recently used whole exome sequencing to determine that several distinct types of malformations of cortical development, including microcephaly, pachygyria with cortical thickening, and hypoplasia of the corpus callosum, were all associated with recessive mutations in a single gene, WDR62 (Nature 2010;467:207-10).This discovery was made by analyzing the DNA of several children with microcephaly among 30 interrelated Turkish families.
The last few months have brought other reports that used whole exome sequencing to identify causative gene mutations for Perrault syndrome (Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2010;87:282-8), Joubert's syndrome (Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2010;86:93-7), and Fowler syndrome (Human Mutation 2010;31:918-23).
One advantage of exome sequencing studies is that researchers can use smaller sample sets – with an "n" as small as 1 – in a comprehensive fashion, Dr. Huentelman said. "This is great for rare diseases or to gain a foothold in a disease that has been hard to understand at the population level. For instance, we can analyze the differences between twins discordant for autism."
Advantages of exome sequencing include its speed and cost-effectiveness. Dr. Gunel reports that in his laboratory, whole genome sequencing might take several weeks and cost about $50,000 while he can receive the results of whole exome sequencing within 9 days, at a cost of-about $3,500.
"These tests are still pricey," said Dr. Andrea Gropman, a neurogeneticist at the Children's National Medical Center and George Washington University, both in Washington. For sequencing genes related to autism, she said, costs might range from $1,000 to $5,800, which insurance companies might or might not cover. "For some families, that means they must pay out of pocket."
New Funding Opportunities
Advances in the field might be attributable, in part, to greater funding opportunities. Dr. Gunel's research was supported in part by a $2.9 million "stimulus grant" from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, part of the $8.2 billion provided to the National Institutes of Health from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. He plans to use his stimulus money to extend whole exome sequencing to hundreds of other families affected by malformations of cortical development. …

Fujifilm GFX 50S Mirrorless Medium-Format Camera Launches
New Camera Combines 51.4MP Sensor and Advanced Processor with Fujinon Lenses
Valhalla, NY—Fujifilm North America Corporation announced that the Fujifilm GFX 50S mirrorless medium-format digital camera will launch late February 2017. It will be released with an initial selection of three Fujinon lenses: the GF63mm f/2.8 R WR; GF32–64mm f/4 R LM WR; and GF120mm f/4 R LM OIS WR Macro.
As part of the GFX system, the Fujinon GF lenses leverage the mirrorless system's structure. The G mount has a short flange back distance of 26.7mm that reduces the back focus distance as much as possible. This is said to prevent vignetting and achieve edge-to-edge sharpness. All GF lenses have been designed to support sensors of more than 100 megapixels.
Furthermore, GF lens barrels have an aperture ring similar to the one on Fujinon XF lenses, for intuitive operation. A C (command) position was added to the aperture ring to enable users to change the aperture with the camera's command dial. The A (auto) position and C position feature a locking button installed on the aperture ring that must be disabled to implement changes.
Fujifilm GFX 50S Mirrorless Medium-Format Camera
The GFX system utilizes a Fujifilm-exclusive 43.8×32.9mm (Fujifilm G format), 51.4 megapixel CMOS sensor. The sensor has approximately 1.7 times the area of a 35mm sensor. According to the company, "The GFX 50S 51.4MP sensor shows its true potential when making large-format prints, capturing majestic landscape photos or reproducing historical documents. Compared to a full-size sensor with equivalent megapixels, both resolution and sensitivity are dramatically better due to the larger size of each pixel."
The sensor is engineered to capture textures and subtlety of tone that are unique to large-size sensors. The texture and tone combine to give a three-dimensional effect.
For flash photography in the studio or outdoors during the day, the GFX 50S sensor has a native ISO of 100. It can also be adapted to various aspect ratios, including 4:3, 3:2, 16:9, 1:1, 65:24, 5:4 and 7:6.
The mirrorless medium-format GFX 50S also uses the X Processor Pro, the same processing engine used in the X-Pro2 and X-T2 cameras. This allows photographers to use Fujifilm's proprietary film simulation effects with a medium-format sensor. In addition, the camera supports Full HD video recording at 29.97p/25p/24p/23.98p. It also introduces a color chrome effect that reproduces subtle tones in highly saturated subjects.
Viewing and Navigation
Also notable are the camera's 3.69M-dot, organic EL electronic viewfinder (EVF) and 2.36M-dot touch-screen LCD back panel. The EVF is detachable to allow for flexible operation. Users can attach the optional EVF-TL1 EVF tilt adapter accessory to permit the finder to be tilted to 90° vertically and swung ±45°.
Fujifilm GFX 50S, back
Furthermore, the 3.2-inch, 2.36M-dot rear monitor offers touch operation for the menu, focusing points and image playback. The 3D, tilting LCD screen is designed to improve operability and make viewing images and checking focus easier.
The camera is also equipped with a 1.28-inch LCD sub monitor on the top of the body. Exposure data, such as aperture and shutter speed, are displayed on this screen.
Additionally, like the flagship X-series models, the GFX 50S features dedicated dials to independently set aperture, shutter speed and ISO. Aperture and ISO feature a C (command) and the shutter speed dial has a T (time) position. Setting the dial to this position lets users change exposure settings via the command dials on the front and rear of the camera, according to preference.
Furthermore, the camera employs a 117-point (9×13/maximum of 425 points when miniaturized) contrast autofocus system. According to Fujifilm, "High-precision AF on the imaging sensor dramatically improves focusing accuracy with the shallow depth of field produced by medium-format lenses." And focus point selection can be performed using the focus lever. Alternatively, users can select the focus point from the touch-screen LCD.
The Fujifilm GFX- 50S has a 1.28-inch LCD sub monitor on the top panel.
Tough Construction
Constructed from magnesium alloy, the Fujifilm GFX 50S weighs approximately 43 ounces when paired with the Fujinon GF63mm f/2.8 R WR lens. As a result, it weighs approximately 60% of a medium-format DSLR camera equipped with a sensor of the same size. When compared to a full frame, the weight is almost identical. Overall camera body height and width were also minimized to overturn the perceptions regarding the mobility of medium-format digital cameras.
In addition, the GFX boasts dust and weather resistance, and it can operate in temperatures as low as 14ºF. It also features dual SD memory card slots.
The Fujifilm GFX 50S mirrorless medium-format camera body will ship late February with a suggested retail price of $6,499.95.
Fujinon GF Lenses
The mirrorless medium-format camera will reach retail with the following three lens options: the GF63mm f/2.8 R WR (50mm equivalent in 35mm format); GF32–64mm f/4 R LM WR (25–51mm equivalent); and GF120mm f/4 Macro R LM OIS WR (95mm equivalent).
All Fujinon GF lenses are dust and weather resistant. They are also built to withstand operation at temperatures as low as 14ºF. In addition, fluorine coating applied to their front lens elements creates a hydrophobic coating that repels moisture.
Fujinon GF63mm f/2.8 R WR
With 8 groups and 10 elements, including 1 ED (extra-low dispersion) element, its lens construction is the most suitable for high-resolution.
The small, lightweight lens has a diameter of 84x71mm with a weight of 14.2 ounces. Aberrations due to focus distance are said to be suppressed, as the lens uses the front group for focus. It will retail for $1,499.95.
Fujinon GF32–64mm f/4 R LM WR
This lens is constructed of 11 groups and 14 elements, including three aspheric elements, one ED lens and one super ED lens. Fujifilm says this allows the lens to achieve image quality rivaling prime lenses. In addition, it uses internal focusing, thereby reducing the weight of the lens. It also achieves fast, silent AF by using a linear motor to drive focus. SRP: $2,299.95.
Fujinon GF120mm f/4 R LM OIS WR Macro
This weatherproof lens is constructed of 9 groups and 14 elements, including three ED elements. By adopting a floating focus method using a linear motor, silent high-speed autofocusing is achieved. Furthermore, due to the arrangement of the ED lenses, chromatic aberrations are also corrected, contributing to high-quality images.
When designing this lens, Fujinon engineers considered the quality of the out-of-focus area, both in front and behind the plane of focus. As a result, the lens produces artistic bokeh.
It is also equipped with optical image stabilization (OIS) effective up to five stops. This makes the lens suitable for handheld shooting or shooting in low light. SRP: $2,699.95.
Additional Fujinon GF Lenses
Fujifilm announced that three additional Fujinon GF lenses would be introduced later in 2017. They will be the: GF110mm f/2 R LM WR (87mm); the GF23mm f/4 R LM WR (18mm equivalent); and the GF45mm f/2.8 R WR (35mm equivalent).
Fujifilm GFX 50S Accessories
The company additionally announced that several optional accessories, which will be sold separately, would be available for the mirrorless medium-format GFX 50S.
Vertical Battery Grip VG-GFX1. Designed to place the release button, dials and function buttons in the same positions when shooting vertically, the battery grip can be loaded with one NP-T125 battery. This will lower the frequency that batteries need replacing. Also, by connecting the AC-15V accessory (sold separately), it is possible to charge the battery within the grip in approximately two hours.
Fujifilm GFX 50S with Vertical Battery Grip VG-GFX1
EVF Tilt Adapter EVF-TL1
When mounting this accessory between the camera body and the EVF, the angle of the EVF can be changed from 0°〜90° vertically and from -45°〜+45° horizontally. This allows users to shoot at various angles while using the viewfinder.
H Mount Adapter G
This optional lens adapter permits GFX photographers to use Super EBC Fujinon HC interchangeable lenses developed for the Fujifilm GX645AF medium-format film camera (discontinued). Using the adapter on the GFX 50S, nine Super EBC Fujinon HC interchangeable lenses and one teleconverter developed for the GX645AF can be used.
While the focusing method will be limited to manual focusing, the lens aperture can be changed using the command dial on the camera body. Shooting with the leaf shutter built into the lenses is also possible. Using this lens shutter allows high-speed flash synchronization up to a maximum speed of 1/800 sec.
Also, the adapter is equipped with electrical contacts that can communicate with the camera body. It can thus independently create, save and apply correctional data for each lens. The adapter supports both manual and aperture priority AE exposure modes.
View Camera Adapter G
This adapter allows the GFX 50S to be used as a digital back. It enables the camera to be mounted to the standard universal-type back of a view camera. In addition, this permits the use of Fujinon large-format camera lenses, such as the CM-W Fujinon lens series.
The camera or lens shutter can be triggered, allowing the user to choose the optimum method. The large image circle and the bellows of the view camera can be used with tilt, shift and swing movements, which is effective for product and architectural photography.
Tethered Shooting Solutions
Fujifilm offers the following tethering solutions for photographers: X Acquire to transfer images from the camera to a hot folder on a computer for use with preferred imaging software; Tether Shooting Plug-in Pro for Adobe Photoshop Lightroom; and HS-V5 for Windows (sold separately).
By connecting the GFX 50S to a PC via a USB cable and using this software, it's possible to transfer captured images directly to the PC. Users can also control the camera from the PC. Additionally, by using the control panel window newly added to Tether Shooting Plug-in Pro, other camera functions become available.
RAW File Converter EX2.0
This function is powered by SilkyPix (free) RAW development software and Adobe Photoshop Lightroom/Photoshop CC (sold separately). RAW development software is used for detailed corrections and advanced image processing that isn't supported by in-camera RAW conversion. Both software support Fujifilm's film simulation modes. fujifilmusa.com

U.S. Sens. Lisa Murkowski, Dan Sullivan, Rep. Don Young, and Gov. Michael J. Dunleavy (all R-Alaska) today issued the following statements after the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) released the draft environmental impact statement (EIS) for the oil and gas leasing program on the Coastal Plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR).
The draft EIS will be published in the Federal Register on December 28, opening a 45-day public comment period that will close on February 11, 2019. Public hearings will be held throughout Alaska and in Washington, DC. More information is available here.
Murkowski is chairman of the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. She authored the second title of H.R. 1, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which Congress passed exactly one year ago. The Act allows surface development of 2,000 federal acres of the non-wilderness Coastal Plain (0.01% of ANWR) for responsible energy development, which could bring an estimated 10.4 billion barrels of oil to market. New production from the 1002 Area will refill the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System while also creating high-paying jobs, generating billions of dollars in revenues for the state and federal treasuries, keeping energy prices affordable for families and businesses, and strengthening national energy security.
