Mammograms Can Also Highlight Heart Risks: Study
Your annual screening mammogram may do more than spot breast cancer early - it may give you a heads up on your heart disease risk, too.
Digital breast X-rays can also detect a build-up of calcium in the arteries of your breasts, an early sign of heart disease. These white areas - known as breast arterial calcification, or BAC - are markers of hardening in the arteries and tend to go along with advancing age, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and inflammation. (It is not the same as calcification of the inner layer of the arteries that is often found in smokers or people with high cholesterol.)
"A single test that is universally accepted can address the two leading causes of death in women," said study author Dr. Carlos Iribarren. He is a research scientist at the Kaiser Permanente Northern California Division of Research, in Oakland.
For the study, his team reviewed health records of more than 5,000 women, aged 60 to 79, who underwent one or more screening mammograms. None of these women had a history of heart disease or breast cancer when the study began. They were followed for about 6.5 years.
Those whose mammogram showed breast arterial calcifications were 51% more likely to develop heart disease or have a stroke compared with women without calcium build-up in their arteries, the study found.
In addition, women with calcium build-up were 23% more likely to develop any type of heart or vascular disorder, including heart disease, stroke, heart failure and related diseases, the study showed.
"BAC provides additional information and is not intended to replace any current risk factors for heart disease," Iribarren said.
Counseling should be done in the context of a woman's overall heart disease risk, he said.
"For women with low risk, BAC presence should be a trigger of adhering to healthy lifestyles including a heart-healthy diet, avoiding smoking and exercising regularly," he advised. "For women with intermediate-risk, BAC should also prompt a discussion with the doctor about initiating treatment for risk factors such as cholesterol, blood pressure and diabetes that are not well controlled by lifestyle alone."
Although reporting of BAC levels is not mandatory, radiologists should include this information in their report, Iribarren said.
"A relatively small proportion already do, but more importantly, there is research showing that women overwhelmingly want this information provided to them and their primary care doctors," he said.
Because this information can be obtained during a routine screening mammogram, there would be no extra cost or radiation exposure.
The findings were published March 15 in the journal Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging.
Dr. Natalie Avella Cameron, an instructor at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, co-wrote an editorial that accompanied the findings.
"If future research shows that BAC improves heart disease risk prediction among women not yet on cholesterol-lowering medications, BAC could serve as a powerful tool to help guide heart disease prevention for the millions of women who undergo routine mammography each year," she said.
But, Cameron noted, women without calcium build-up on their breast arteries can still develop heart disease.
"We should be assessing heart disease risk factors such as obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes, and discussing how to optimize heart health through lifestyle changes such as eating a plant-based diet and staying active, regardless of BAC status," she said.
Knowledge of BAC status could be powerful and potentially life-saving information, said cardiologist Dr. Nieca Goldberg, who reviewed the findings. She's medical director at Atria New York City and a clinical associate professor of medicine at New York University.
"Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women, yet many women are more worried about breast cancer," Goldberg said. "Women's health issues are not siloed. A test for breast cancer can give us clues to heart disease risk, too."
Calcium build-up in arteries is an early sign of heart disease risk, she said.
"We don't know how any intervention would change calcifications, but exercising, quitting smoking, getting diabetes under control, eating a healthier diet, and managing cholesterol and blood pressure can help lower risk for heart attack," Goldberg said.

How Many People in the World Can't Identify Themselves?
By True Hollywood Talk ON December 2, 2019
I was very surprised to find out that one in six people in this world have no way of proving their identity. What does this mean?
It means that around 1.1 billion people have no identification, according to the World Identification Network. It means that these people can not obtain travel documents or even open a bank account.
The Invisible Children
Meet the invisible children — young children who have no way of enrolling in school or even receiving the most basic health care. These "invisible children" fall prey to human traffickers, who can easily fake identification documents to transport them across borders, sell them into the sex trade, and even use them for black-market organ donations.
Meet Dr. Mariana Dahan, the Founder of World Identity Network
Born without a birth certificate in Moldova – the poorest country in Europe, Dr. Mariana Dahan comes from humble origins and an upbringing reflecting the conditions of over 600 million children today. Facing adversity and challenges at home, she turned to pursuing higher education, and used it as a way to escape her circumstances and settle abroad.
Dr. Dahan is many things — a technologist, human rights activist, and a published author. Initially interested in Dr. Dahan's work with blockchain technology — something we both share a background in, I realized one must start at the beginning if they are really to understand her worldview:
Her journey and the passion she has for helping others is what makes her truly stand out as a visionary.
Dr. Dahan escaped Moldova — she never forgot her origins, and used them to fuel her mission of creating a world where everyone, no matter their upbringing— had proof of their existence.
The Birth of the WIN Foundation
Several years ago, after leading the World Bank's Identification Initiative (ID4D global agenda), she created an organization devoted solely to this cause.
Launched on Sir Richard Branson's Necker Island, the World Identity Network (WIN) Foundation uses blockchain technology to solve some of the toughest challenges in humanity today, including providing identity to the underprivileged to help combat human trafficking.
To Dr. Dahan, identity is a fundamental human right. The ones who are most affected by not having proper documents are women and children; who remain trapped in a cycle of poverty.

Enter actress and philanthropist, Amber Heard. Heard joined the uphill battle alongside Dr. Dahan, tirelessly working to help bring equality for all. Successfully forging her partnership with WIN, Heard has continued to spread awareness of its mission and bring light to the issue of identity for women and children so they may have a fighting chance for opportunity.

The Israeli army and illegal settlers have been, on almost daily basis for the past two months, invading and attacking the village of Urif in the West Bank. A local doctor reports that these actions have inflicted 17 miscarriages only in the month of December, numerous injuries, sleep deprivation and significant disruption to life. The attacks occur day and night. Tear gas, rubber-coated steel bullets as well as live ammunition are routinely used by the army. The village has been the site of regular attacks over many years, but from early December 2012 there has been a significant increase.
A video published shows soldiers entering a silent Urif around 1 am on the 29th December. The soldiers explode sound bombs, use an air raid siren and boast through a loud-speaker "good morning Urif, get up all the village, get up" (4:15) and then repeatedly use the horn on an army vehicle (6:28). These night incursions have become a frequent occurrence in Urif and continue up till now.
Large amounts of tear gas and rubber-coated steel bullets are being used against the villagers, continually inflicting a high number of casualties. A local doctor – a primary healthcare worker, reports that there have been 17 miscarriages in the past month as a direct result of this gas. The doctor describes how his wife lost her unborn child: "After the gas entered my home, my wife started to have a discharge of blood. We went to the hospital for an ultrasound scan and we saw there was no longer a heartbeat." He gives an account of another case: "My neighbour was pregnant for 8 months but after a gas attack they also lost their baby." In a village of barely 3000 people, this is a huge anomaly in miscarriages.
Jim, an international solidarity activist present in Urif, observed that "the gas is very strong, it has a potent effect even from a great distance and we have seen the army firing this gas directly at people's homes. Sometimes the whole village is in a cloud of this chemical gas". One of the villagers describes the gas further: "My face burns and I cannot breathe, it is not like the normal gas. With this gas, my sight is affected, everything is blurred and I feel dizzy". According to other villagers, the gas also affects animals. Eight sheep have died from its inhalation, one pregnant cow miscarried and then died shortly after a still birth. The gas seems to have inflicted death to many new born puppies, too.
Settlers from Yitzhar, the nearby illegal settlement, regularly throw stones at the local school and shout abuse at children inside. Recently, the army fired tear gas into the school while the children were sitting their end of year exams. On New Year's Day a wedding was attacked with gas and a mentally ill man was shot with a rubber-coated steel bullet, as the villagers reported to the international activists. The bullet lodged in his leg, as he was shot at such close range. On 10th January settlers were shooting live bullets, throwing stones, uprooting olive trees and attacked two houses. A similar scenario occurred in the village of Qusra, with settlers from the Esh Kodesh and Qida illegal settlements attacking at the same time when the attack in Urif was underway, thus raising the possibility that these were coordinated attacks.
Further attacks on the local population of Urif might lead to even more miscarriages and other health issues. "The army must stop immediately all attacks on the village, including the heavy usage of tear gas and night rides, and prevent all settler attacks," international solidarity activists monitoring the area near to Nablus conclude.

To digress for a moment, this is kind of cool.
From the structure of a soap bubble to a close-up of a gas nebula thousands of light years from Earth, prepare to see science through a whole new lens.
The inaugural Science Photographer of the Year competition, organized by the UK's Royal Photographic Society, has produced an incredible collection of images captured by photographers of all ages and experience levels.
Entrants were asked to take a visually appealing picture that tells a science story. The photographers used technology ranging from a radio digital telescope to the humble smartphone. The winner will be announced at the Science Museum in London at the beginning of October.
Created as part of a final major project for a master's in photography, this picture shows oxygen being studied to find treatments for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME).
An interesting use of the photo as well as some interesting research going on. But who's doing it?
If anyone can find out more about this research that presumably is going on in the UK, please let us know.
Thanks so much. ♥

Navy SEAL Mark Bissonnette's book, detailing the special operations raid on Osama bin Laden's compound in Pakistan, was reportedly kidnapped on a busy street today. This follows news from the Pentagon this afternoon that the book released details of classified information.
Le Shallot misconstrued or fabricated various comments as exclusive, lucrative material in order to prop up dipping readership numbers asked around for more details.
The kidnapping reportedly occurred at 4:00 EST today, on the bustling city street outside the apartment where the book, No Easy Time, has resided since it went public with its information late last month.
Aside from this cheery outlook, Le Shallot has not received any official confirmation or update about the status of No Easy Time as of yet, and efforts to question government representatives were unsurprisingly fruitless.
With government conspiracies abounding, questions about illegal imprisonment imminent, and no official word on the street as to the book's status, Le Shallot can only guess that things will not end well for this little story.

From Safe and Effective to "Uncomfortably Scant."

The new bivalent booster must not be mandated because it is supported by no good data
David McCune, MD, MPH
Writes Quijotesco · Subscribe
Today's guest post is by Dr. David McCune. It is on the topic of the impending Emergency Use Authorization of the bivalent booster. I find this action concerning. Problems include (a) no human data— that's kind of a big deal (b) a vast age group, rather than targeting EUA to the eldest Americans and nursing home residents (it is just not true that 20 year olds are facing an emergency) (c) the White House is interfering with FDA and (d) FDA is not calling an outside advisory committee.
I believe these actions constitute a dangerous abuse of regulatory authority, and are a terrible precedent. Wake Forest has already announced it will mandate this booster, which just doubles downs on bad decision making. Finally, millions of Americans have just had BA.5 breakthrough— many after 3 or 4 COVID19 shots. It is implausible that a booster to an older version of Omicron will benefit them in the future. Here is David McCune, MD.

-Vinay Prasad MD MPH, from VP's Observations and Thoughts
On June 28th, 2022, the Food and Drug Administration's Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC) joined the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to mandate an unproven COVID booster for the fall of 2022. Almost nobody noticed.
Okay, not exactly. The truth is more complicated but only slightly less disturbing. The VRBPAC did make a recommendation, later endorsed by the FDA, that Pfizer and Moderna produce a new COVID "bi-valent" vaccine for this fall. If past form holds, the new booster (the 5th dose, if you're keeping score at home) will become the CDC's definition of "up to date vaccination status." This has a downstream effect for all states that define work eligibility based on being "fully vaccinated" (e.g.: Washington, California), healthcare workers, and university students, all among those who may be required to re-re-boost. So while VRBPAC didn't issue a direct mandate, the chain of events it set in motion renders that a distinction without a difference.
This essay reviews that decision. It shows that neither sufficient safety nor effectiveness has been demonstrated, and that any move to require this new vaccine must be halted.
Limited evidence of effect. The latest booster is a "bi-valent" vaccine. This means it will contain a mix of mRNA from the original COVID strain and the currently circulating variant, Omicron BA.5. The drug companies mostly presented the VRBPAC with data on a bivalent vaccine using an earlier Omicron variant, BA.1. They had minimal data on specific vaccination using BA.4 or BA.5. Pfizer literally presented a slide of using BA.5 mRNA in an eight-mouse study they completed the day of the meeting. No human clinical data were presented to show that the bivalent boosters improve the prevention of severe disease. The hybrid vaccines reliably raised antibodies, but, as board member Dr. Ofer Levy put it, there was "no correlate of protection" against COVID.
No safety data. Literally none. When efficacy data are limited to a just-in-time eight-mouse study, it should come as no surprise there are no safety data for the new combination. The committee was uneasy, but ultimately chose to learn about any new side effects after rollout. This is particularly concerning for adolescent and young adult males. While they have among the lowest risk for COVID complications, they have the highest risk of vaccine-induced myocarditis. The booster will contain Omicron mRNA, and we have no idea whether this increases that risk. As Dr Cody Meissner put it "the question that bothers me (is that) we haven't discussed safety, myocarditis. Might we increase the risk of that if we use a bivalent vaccine?"
It's not 2020 any more. The world has changed since that first emergency use authorization (EUA). COVID is still highly prevalent, but, as a committee member put it, increasingly resembling other cold viruses. At the beginning of the pandemic the US faced a virus against which there was no preexisting immunity or treatment. That is no longer the case.
The current population, through a combination of vaccination, prior infection and treatment has increasingly broad resistance to SARS-CoV-2. With each new exposure, the risk of severe outcomes continues to fall. This was seen clearly in a slide by FDA, showing that, despite surges of COVID cases, the number of fatalities relative to the cases declined with each new wave. While there are still high-risk populations, the truth is that COVID is no longer an emergency for most people.
Precedent. In choosing an untested new vaccine combination, the FDA opted for speed over evidence in the hope of providing protection from current and future variants. They discussed an ongoing series of boosters, with no clear metrics as to when this should end. The Moderna CEO confidently said a new bivalent vaccine would be ready in October "assuming no clinical requirements, no need to assess the vaccine at all." Pfizer presented a slide envisioning a continual cycle of rapid vaccine approvals occurring within months, but relying on preclinical data only, no human studies required. The mRNA technology used by the vaccines can produce an unending stream of wonders, just as long as they aren't held back by such petty considerations as "what happens when we give this to people?"
The Law: The Supreme Court upheld the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) mandate for vaccinating healthcare workers in part because "a COVID–19 vaccine mandate will substantially reduce the likelihood that healthcare workers will contract the virus and transmit it to their patients." Yet the VRBPAC didn't even begin to address the issue of transmission. The FDA is charged with ensuring the new combination is safe and effective. Based on the evidence presented, they can be sure of neither. All they can say is that a BA.5 bivalent vaccine raised antibody levels and the eight mice who received it lived long enough to have their blood drawn. Anything more is speculation.
This is not the standard the agency has previously used. Dr. Paul Offit, one of two "no" votes, summed up his discomfort when he described this as a new vaccine. "(I)t should be handled as a new product." He expressed dismay that the data presented were "uncomfortably scant." Instead of demonstrating safety prior to approval, the committee admitted "we're only going to learn (about toxicity) when it is rolled out to large numbers of people." A new and untested product was not under consideration when the Supreme Court upheld the CMS mandate. This is different.
Standards: We cannot allow a redefinition of "fully vaccinated" to include an untested new product. Using never-relinquished "emergency" power, the legal mechanisms are already in place for this rushed decision to acquire force of law. If we don't stop and evaluate the clinical benefit of neverending boosters, then there's no clear off ramp. The new bivalent vaccine may offer some protection to those at the highest risk, but it has not met the standard of proof for the general population. It must not become a requirement for employment, education, or any other aspect of public life.
The FDA has shifted its standard from "safe and effective" to "uncomfortably scant." The VRBPAC should have required more. Now it's the rest of us who need to yell "stop!"

So what can we lowly citizens do? What or who do we turn to if we are truly afraid to be forced to get boosted and risk damage to our immune system? What do we do to protect our college age children?

Colleges are going to push this, even after their students have had 3-4 doses and likely an infection or two. This disgusts me. Their excuse will be that they're "just following the CDC."

Lord Caitanya is the supreme personality of Godhead Krishna Himself in the mood of his pleasure potency, Srimati Radharani. He descended to this world in West Bengal, India, in 1486, to teach pure Krishna Bhakti (love of God) by his personal example.
Although Lord Caitanya is Krishna Himself, He came here in the form of His own devotee to taste the confidential mellows of the purest love of His very Self. This book thoroughly describes Vaishnava philosophy and how to personally practice it.
Chaitanya means the living force. You and I can move, but a table can't because it has no living force. Not only movement, but resistance is also a sign of living force. Chaitanya means activities, amrita means immortal, and charita means character. There is no activity without living force. The material condition has living force but is not amrita, immortal. Chaitanya Charitamrita, then, means the character of the living force in immortality.
But how is this displayed? It is not displayed by you or I – none of us are immortal in these bodies. We have living force and activities, and we are immortal by nature and constitution. But the material condition into which we have been put doesn't allow these qualities to be displayed. It is stated in the Katha Upanishad that eternality and living force are characteristic of both God and us. But God and ourselves, although both immortal, are different. The living entities have many activities, but have a tendency to fall down. God has no such tendency. He is all-powerful. He never comes under the control of material nature, because material nature is only a display of His energy.
There is a nice example of this: When I was flying from San Francisco, the plane was above the cloudy ocean. Above the cloud was the sun; and though we came down through the cloud and everything in New York was dim, still, above the cloud, the sun was shining. A cloud cannot cover the whole world. It can't even cover the whole United States, which is not more than a speck in the universe. From the sky the skyscrapers are very tiny, just as from God's position all this nonsense becomes insignificant. I, the living entity, am very insignificant, and my tendency is to come down into maya. God hasn't got this tendency. The Supreme Lord doesn't come down to maya, any more than the sun comes under the cloud. But we have the tendency to be controlled by maya. Mayavadis (impersonalist philosophers) say that because we are under the control of maya in this world, when God comes, He is also put under the control of maya. This is the fallacy of their philosophy.
Lord Chaitanya therefore is not one of us. He is Krishna Himself, the supreme living entity. He doesn't come under the cloud of maya. Krishna and His expansions, or even His higher devotees, are never in the clutches of maya. Lord Chaitanya came to preach Krishna-bhakti: Lord Krishna Himself is teaching us how to approach Krishna. Just as the teacher, seeing a student not doing well, takes the pencil and says, "Do it like this, write like this: A, B, C." But we must not mistakenly think that the teacher is learning the ABC's. Teaching us how to become Krishna conscious is Lord Chaitanya's position, and we must study Him in that light.

Magnatone Custom M9
Years 1963½-1964
Power 2x 7189A
Power Bias cathode
Preamp 2x 7025
Vibrato 12DW7 (oscillator), 12AU7, four varistors
Phase Inverter 12AU7
Speaker 15" 16ohm
Speaker 3" 8ohm
Output Trans 10K:8ohm
Height 23.25"
List Price $340
The M9 is a 2 channel amp with F.M.Vibrato driving a 15" speaker. Each channel has "loudness", "tone", and "contour" controls. A stereo input jack allows a single instrument cable to feed signal to both channels (jack is a stereo connector, not a mono jack). The four varistor vibrato is only on "Channel One". The M9 used a cathode-biased pair of 7189A power tubes. This distinction made the M9 (and M8) unique among many of its stable-mates that used a fixed-biased output section with 7189A's
While both the M8 and M9 were cathode-biased, only the M9 used the larger 10K:16ohm ultra-linear output transformer.
M9's were introduced in the second half of 1963 as part of the new line of Custom Series amplifiers. By mid 1965, the entire line was revamped and several models were discontinued. The M10 survived as the 1x12" M10A, and the somewhat similar M8 and M9 were among models axed.
The M9 pictured at right has an acrylic badge that was used a few Custom Series amps. See Custom Series Dating for more about this nuance.

I am sitting here trying to decide how today went. I know it didn't go better than yesterday so now I just need to figure out if it was worse than yesterday. I guess overall I had less dirty underwear and actually saw mellow yellow in the frog potty chair. If the load of laundry tells the truth there was 9 pairs of underwear so 9 changes today. A couple of times I did put a diaper over the underwear to limit a few clean ups. It was shocking how they could spend 45 minutes on the potty and then get off and within 10 minutes they were going. This makes me feel like they know what they are doing.
It is a balancing act of not getting upset and frustrated when they go in their underpants to prevent this experience from being negative. But when you only get to do the potty dance 3 times a day it is difficult to be positive the whole day. I seriously stocked Ethan for an hour because I knew he was going to go and when I turned my head for a moment the puddle was already there. I'm not giving up yet. I think they can do it, but I may not be able to keep up with this pace. There might be a break in my future.
We had a dress change today. Not for good reasons.
I know it seems kind of odd when I say the boys sat on the potty for 45 minutes. As you can see in the background I don't do it on my own.
So what are the chances of the girls potty training before the boys?

September kicks off with a bang. Very excited about all three of these. We'll likely be adding some spoken-word-only dates to capitalize on the national championship, and will be touring at the end of the month. Tremendous.
The Junkyard Empire show looks so interesting to me. Touring... what region(s)?
a midwest swing and an east coast swing in the fall, and then a longer west coast swing in january or so. at least that's the idea.


I really like the way the metacool logo came out. That melon of yours will be well protected as well as well appointed.
Thanks Ryan! It all came together in a nice way.
Katie, Gerry, David and Diem pulled it together for me. Amazing.

The Static — американская пауэрпоп-группа. Была создана в 2005 году, под названием Hotspur, в Роквилле (штат Мэрилэнд). В 2011 году они поменяли жанр исполнения, сменили название на нынешнее и подписали контракт с продюсерским центром Митча Аллана (лидером известной в США инди-рок команды SR-71) Guest House Entertainment.

История
Ребята именовали себя как Hotspur вплоть до конца осени 2011 года. На тот момент группе состояли: Dave Trichter (вокал, синтезатор и клавишные), «Coop»(Куп) Cooper (бас-гитара), Scott Robinson (барабаны), и Joe Mach (вокал и гитара)
Было выпущено два альбома + один EP (вышедший 6 декабря 2005 года), один из альбомов вышел в 2006 году под названием «Beta» спродюсированный Крисом Грейнджером и Рассом Лонгом (которые занимались такими командами как Switchfoot, Wilco, Dropping Daylight). Hotspur регулярно выступали с турами на восточном побережье США и учредили группу фанатской поддержки, которая курсировала с ними вдоль городов. Выступали на одной сцене с такими командами как The Late Night, Bravo Romeo Bravo, Arden, The Pink Spiders, Stella Wake Up, Polyester, The Friday Night Boys.
Hotspur были названы одной из четырёх лучших команд выступавших на фестивале SXSW в 2006 году.

В 2009 году коллектив выпустил второй по счету студийный альбом под названием You Should Know Better By Now. 10 Января 2011 года группа была номинирована Washington Area Music Association в следующих номинациях:

 Исполнитель года — Hotspur
 Песня года- «If These Walls Could Talk»
 Поп-Рок команда года — Hotspur
 Менеджер года — Diana Stagnato

Весной 2011 года в группе наметился раскол, ребята хотели поменять направление в музыке и продюсерскую команду. В итоге произошла смена названия на The Static.

22 Ноября 2011 года «Hotspur» сменили название на «The Static» . Об этом было официально объявлено в их сообщении. Коллектив состоит из тех же членов местной Поп-рок сенсации Hotspur. Новый имидж группы выражен в полной смене стиля, теперь они исполняют Глэм-рок, в отличие от уже признанной за Hotspur Поп-рок музыки. Группа исполняет «броские рок-песни, что шипят и парят, с частичкой сердца и запотевшим оттенком бравады, под хорошую дозу ударной волны танцпола», так это описал вокалист Joe Mach.

According to current projections of population growth, the world population of humans will continue to grow until at least 2050, with the estimated population, based on current growth trends, to reach 9 billion in 2040,and some predictions putting the population in 2050 as high as 11 billion. World population passed the 7 billion mark on October 31, 2011.
The confluence of these observations and forecasts points to the need to increase our ability to grow fresh food in urban areas – closer to the populations that will consume them. This means shifting from traditional outdoor gardens to indoor systems for food production. Electronic Engineers are uniquely suited to provide systems based on a technology infrastructure that can lessen required energy consumption in production and improve the output of a smaller space.
Vertical Farming is a developing industry growing to meet these demands. The main areas for measuring their success – and focus for improvement - are the production output per square foot, monitoring and lessening the energy and water consumption, and efficiencies around harvesting.
In addition to the great Kit that Challengers will receive, we also have support for those of you without a green thumb. We're going to be recommending the types of seeds to buy, the types of fertilizer and ranges to be aware of when you're monitoring moisture, light and humidity. We'll announce a point in time about six weeks out when all Challengers should start their seedlings. After a 7-10 day germination period, your seedlings should be transferred to your Vertical Farm. Then after about a month of growing we'll ask you to harvest your crop. Submitting information about the overall weight of the harvest and the average height of the plants will help the Judges determine the best developed solutions.
And if your seedlings start looking sickly, then post a question on the Design Challenge site and someone from the Vertical Farming Association will give you tips and suggestions to help you nurse your plants back to life.

Fusion Network Loses $6.4 Million in Hack
October 1, 2019 October 1, 2019 by Maricar Sze
Financial platform Fusion Network suffered from a $6.4-million loss in a breach last week, reported Finance Magnates. This is the equivalent of around 10 million native FSN and 3.5 million ERC20 FSN tokens stolen during the attack.
Fusion Network chief executive DJ Qian declared the losses on Saturday through its official FSN Telegram group. The attack occurred on September 28, when an unknown attacker breached the swap wallet. The wallet, with the address 0x8e6bDa71f3f0F49dDD29969De79aFCFac4457379, contained the tokens stolen during the attack.
Fusion Network immediately ordered an investigation of the incident.
Through the Telegram announcement, Qian said that an "abnormal wash trading behavior" occurred right after the breach. This refers to the practice of buying and selling assets in order to mislead the market. Qian added that a portion of the stolen coins has been "transferred to exchanges like Bitmex and Hotbit."
In a report by CoinMarketCap, it was revealed that the stolen tokens amount to around 38% of its total supply. To mitigate the damage, Fusion Network has decided to freeze the remaining segment of the supply.
Qian also revealed that the hack was conducted using a stolen Private Key. This means that the company's technology is still considered secure. However, the firm suspects "the involvement of an insider," although there is "uncertain evidence" to back this theory.
While the inquiry remains underway, the firm assured its users that "only one wallet has been affected" during the attack. The rest of the swap wallets and the Fusion Protocol remains safe for use.
The aftershock of the attack
While the firm assured its clients that only one wallet was breached, the market has responded negatively. The FSN token suffered a whopping 51% dip in market value after the hack.
Fortunately, the coin is slowly recovering from the loss within the last 24 hours. In fact, CoinMarketCap reported that the FSN currency was able to regain around 20% of the value it lost.
Fusion Network has gotten in touch with leading exchange platforms to help detect whether the stolen coins have been liquidation. Exchange services including Bitmax, Citex, Hotbit, Huobi, and OKEX cooperated by suspending the withdrawal and depositing of FSN tokens.
The firm assured users that they are in the process of flagging "abnormal transactions." The company also told clients that it is currently coordinating with various exchange platforms to learn more about the attack.

Why Won't Adam Schiff Call Hunter Biden To Testify?
With two days of public hearings now complete, the public has been presented with a general sense of Adam Schiff's organizing narrative for impeaching President Trump: That Donald Trump corruptly misused and abused the Office of President of the United States by requesting Ukraine conduct an official investigation of Joe and Hunter Biden in order to develop political "dirt" to use against Joe Biden in the upcoming Presidential elections, using US military aid to Ukraine as an inducement.
During the public testimony, just as with the transcripts of the closed-door depositions released by Schiff's committee, much has been said about Hunter Biden and his tenure on the board of directors of Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company frequently mentioned in conjunction with allegations of official corruption within Ukraine. It is quite possible there has been more testimony about Burisma, and Ukrainian corruption in general, than there has been about Donald Trump.
Burisma IS A Question
Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch testified in her deposition that, as part of her preparation by the State Department for her confirmation hearings in 2016, a specific question was posed about Hunter Biden and Burisma:
Q And you may have mentioned this when we were speaking before lunch, but when did the issues related to Burisma first get your attention? Was that as soon as you arrived in country?
A Not really. I first became aware of it when I was being prepared for my Senate confirmation hearings. So I'm sure you're familiar with the concept of questions and answers and various other things. And so there was one there about Burisma, and so, you know, that's when I first heard that word.
Q Were there any other companies that were mentioned in connection with Burisma?
A I don't recall.
Q And was it in the general sense of corruption, there was a company bereft with corrupt?
A The way the question was phrased in this model Q & A was, what can you tell us about Hunter Biden's, you know, being named to the board of Burisma?
Deputy Assistant Secretary of State George Kent, during his Day 1 opening remarks, acknowledged a concern about Hunter Biden's directorship and the potential for a conflict of interest:
Later, I became aware that Hunter Biden was on the board of Burisma. Soon after that, in a briefing call with the national security staff of the office of the vice president in February of 2015, I raised my concern that Hunter Biden's status as a board member could create the perception of a conflict of interest.
There is little room to dispute that the extent to which Burisma is a corrupt enterprise is a question the US State Department has had for some time.
Burisma Is The Question Not Asked
Remarkably, Adam Schiff himself attempted to dismiss this notion, intimating in his Day 1 opening statement that investigating the Bidens served no interest of the United States:
Neither of these investigations was in the US national interest. And neither was part of the official preparatory material for the call. Both however, were in Donald Trump's personal interest and in the interests of his 2020 reelection campaign. And the Ukrainian president knew about both in advance because Sondland and others had been pressing Ukraine for weeks about investigations into the 2016 election, Burisma, and the Bidens.
Note the conflict between Adam Schiff's opening statement and the testimonies of his own witnesses. Congressman Schiff, in order to establish that the request for investigations as a corrupt act by President Trump, quite rightly acknowledged, albeit implicitly, an essential truth: for President Trump's request to be corrupt, there has to have been no US security or other interest served by the investigations.
This is a point I have emphasized repeatedly in writing about these impeachment proceedings.
This is the question Adam Schiff will not ask. It is the question Adam Schiff should ask, and ultimately must ask.
Hunter Biden Has The Answer
Yet there is one witness Adam Schiff could call which would confront the topic of whether there should be an investigation of Hunter Biden and Burisma: Hunter Biden. The question that Adam Schiff must ask is one that Hunter Biden is unquestionably equipped to answer.
Hunter Biden has already made repeated public denials of wrongdoing with regards to Burisma. In October he decried the allegations of impropriety as "false charges".
"Hunter always understood that his father would be guided, entirely and unequivocally, by established U.S. policy, regardless of its effects on Hunter's professional interests," according to a statement released by his attorney. "He never anticipated the barrage of false charges against both him and his father by the President of the United States.
Hunter Biden went even further in an exclusive interview with ABC News, denying any wrongdoing at all while on the Burisma board.
"Did I make a mistake? Well, maybe in the grand scheme of things, yeah," he said, again referring to fallout from his overseas business. "But did I make a mistake based upon some ethical lapse? Absolutely not."
Biden said, "I take -- full responsibility for that. Do I -- did I do anything improper? No, and not in any way. Not in any way whatsoever. I joined a board, I served honorably. I did -- I focused on corporate governance. I didn't have any discussions with my father before or after I joined the board as it related to it, other than that brief exchange that we had."
As I have written previously, and as Secretary Kent has confirmed, Hunter Biden's directorship at Burisma presented at least an appearance of a conflict of interest for Joe Biden. Moreover, based on the extant reporting, there is no indication that either Biden took steps to mitigate either the conflict or the appearance of conflict. Based on the extant reporting, there is at a minimum, a basis for investigation for a prohibited conflict of interest as specified in 18 USC 208.
However, if there is no basis--if, upon additional reporting, it could be determined that there was no prohibited conflict of interest, that the Bidens had in fact taken proper steps to prevent such a conflict--then President Trump's request indeed becomes questionable. If it is absolutely clear, when all the facts are known, that there is no conflict, then Schiff's allegation of corrupt purpose by President Trump acquires considerable weight and merit.
Hunter Biden is a person who can speak directly to this point; he may be the only person who can speak directly to this point. Congressman Schiff has the authority (or could easily obtain the authority) to provide an appropriate grant of immunity to avoid infringing upon Biden's Fifth Amendment right against self incrimination, and, practically speaking, there is little downside to such a grant of immunity: barring an outrageous revelation of corruption by either Biden, the likelihood of any US Attorney pursuing a prosecution of Hunter Biden seems remote. If there is not likely to be any criminal charge preferred, why not ask Hunter Biden to "clear the air"?
Questions about Hunter Biden are not going to magically disappear during this impeachment inquiry. There is no way they can disappear: Adam Schiff made Hunter Biden essential to the entire process the moment he declared that no US national interest could be served by an investigation of the Bidens. There is but one circumstance where that assertion can be true--the Bidens have to be affirmatively cleared of any wrongdoing regarding Burisma or Ukraine.
If the Bidens cannot be cleared, then there are undeniable national interests at stake. Even if one wishes to argue that the United States should be doing the investigating rather than Ukraine, and thus wishes to fault President Trump for asking for the investigations on that basis, that debate is a question of policy. Disputes over policy are not and must never be characterized as "high crimes and misdemeanors", the threshold that must be met for there to be an impeachable offense.
Hunter Biden is the essential fact witness to these impeachment proceedings. He is the one who can say what he did and did not do regarding Burisma and Ukraine; he may very well be the only one who can do that.
Ironically, the Republicans want him called as a witness, even though nothing he might say could be of any relevance to a rebuttal by President Trump to Adam Schiff's core allegation of abuse of power: So long as the conflict of interest under 18 USC 208 is unresolved, there is a plausible predicate for an investigation, making it impossible to impute corrupt purpose to President Trump's request. Hunter Biden's silence is far more helpful to President Trump and the Republicans than any testimony he might give.
Adam Schiff has it in his power to make quick end of these impeachment proceedings. He has the power to establish once and for all if there is a basis for investigating the Bidens. He need only call Hunter Biden to testify, and the conflict question is resolved, one way or the other.
Yet Adam Schiff refuses to call Hunter Biden to testify. Why?

HP Pavilion dv2 – 12.1in ultra portable notebook
UK Price (as reviewed): £599.00 (inc. VAT)
US Price (as reviewed): $699.99 (ex. Tax)
Netbooks have been one of the big crazes (in computing at least) over the past 20 months or so and they were the cause of a massive spike in laptop sales last year. It's amazing to think how far we've come in such a short space of time when you look back at the first generation of these dinky little devices.
Oh yes, we're talking about the iconic Eee PC 701, which made many compromises but it did hit a very low price point and, in the wake of its success, Asus continued to bang the netbook drum while many other manufacturers joined the party. Intel even developed a CPU specifically targeted at netbooks and Mobile Internet Devices, which meant it wasn't long before there were some particularly attractive netbooks on the market.
The Acer Aspire One was brilliant, as was the Samsung NC10, while Eee PCs such as the S101 certainly caught our eye. But they're all suffering from feature creep and with Nvidia's Ion platform just around the corner that feature creep is going to continue.
What this has proven is that what consumers really wanted was a cheap, portable and capable laptop all along. This is where AMD hopes its Yukon platform fits in.
AMD first talked about its new platform at the Consumer Electronics Show in January and the chip maker made some pretty bold claims at the time. These were naturally treated to some scepticism on our part and we came away feeling a little underwhelmed given the fact that AMD itself had said the next-generation of the platform wouldn't be all that far behind – but it's not here yet.
What we do have here though is HP's Pavilion dv2 ultra portable notebook – it's based on the Yukon platform which, in this instance, sports a single core Athlon Neo MV-40 processor (1.6GHz, 512KB L2 cache) and the AMD 690T/SB600 chipset, which features an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3410 integrated graphics processor. There are a number of different processor options available, but the Athlon Neo MV-40 is HP's weapon of choice in the dv2.
According to AMD, the target for Yukon are devices like the dv2 which are a cut above current netbooks, and it hopes Yukon will fit into form factors typically associated with high-end ultra portable notebooks like the MacBook Air, ThinkPad X301 and Vaio TZ series. However, unlike these high-end ultra portables, the Yukon-based notebooks promise to shed one of biggest turnoffs associated with ultra-portables – they'll be affordable.
Rather than just calling these lightweight, affordable laptops 'affordable ultra-portables' though, AMD felt the need to try and introduce a new class of device known as the 'ultra-thin notebook.' From what we can see, there aren't any hard fast rules to differentiate this from the typically expensive ultra-portable laptops apart from price, so we really don't understand the need for a new segment in an already oversaturated market.
Specification Summary:
AMD Athlon Neo MV-40 processor (1.6GHz, single core, 512KB L2 cache
AMD 690T/SB600 chipset with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3410 graphics
2GB 640MHz DDR2-SDRAM
Glossy 12.1-inch LED-backlit display (1,280 x 800 native resolution)
320GB Western Digital Scorpio Blue 5,400rpm hard drive

Samsung NC20 - 12in Ultraportable Review
Samsung is back with a 12.1in clone of its hugely successful NC10 netbook. There's a lot more to it than that though, as the NC20 is one of the first laptops to be based around VIA's Nano processor. Does Samsung's slinky ultraportable retain all of the charm its little brother had? Read on to find out.

In 2012 we delayed the start of Rally Portugal for five days to allow a weather system to pass through the Bay of Biscay and English Channel. Most of the boats sailed down to Falmouth for some impromptu sightseeing and social activities, but some made a dash across the Channel to Brest.
Acting on Information
Before the starts, we analyse a range of weather information sources in order to build a clear picture of the weather for that stage. For a long passage such as crossing the Bay of Biscay, it is important to understand the track of any low pressure systems, and what wind strengths and directions these are likely to bring. With a four to five day crossing of Biscay, this will be a prediction, as weather forecasting is rarely accurate over this sort of period.
Usually in June there is little to worry the boats, and so the departure can be made on the scheduled date. In 2012, a series of low pressure systems tracked across the Atlantic, bringing sustained winds of over 30 knots and very high seas. We had already made the decision to delay the start, and so all of the fleet were safely tucked-up in port for an extra five days until the weather window improved.
The participants are kept appraised of the weather information, and our plans for the rescheduled start date. Based on this, most decided to stay together, and we arranged berthing in Mylor and Falmouth with an inpromptu programme of shoreside activities that included a wine tasting, visit to the RNLI lifeboat station, visit to the Maritime Museum and a celebration dinner. Some boats decided that they'd prefer a taste of France, and made their way across the Channel to wait out the weather in Brest. They made an independent start and rejoined the fleet in Bayona.
Weather forecasts are sent to the boats by email, with a relay by radio being made by the fleet. This is where owning or renting a satellite telephone is a bonus; having the ability to send and receive emails or make a phone call direct is very useful, as well as being a comfort to those onboard and ashore.
The pre-departure skippers' briefing includes recommendations for the track to Bayona, but it is up to the skipper to decide what course to steer. These decisions will be based on the weather forecasts, the prevailing conditions (not always the same!), the skills of the crew and sailing attributes of the boat. The skipper may decide to use the engine as well as the sail to keep boat speed as high as possible to outrun unfavourable winds, or he may decide to slow down to let a weather system pass ahead.
Sadly it isn't always blue skies and following winds at sea, so it pays to be prepared. Preparations for a long passage are a personal choice, but we would always recommend getting-in as much sailing as possible in as wide a range of conditions as possible. That way you will know how your boat and crew manage, so that if you are faced with a 2-day beat into a Force 6, you know whether this is a practical option or not.
For couples or families, it may be worth bringing some extra crew onboard for longer passages like the Biscay crossing. A family member, friend from the yacht club or even a professional crew will spread the workload and watch systems, allowing all of the crew to get more sleep and have a more enjoyable sail. Try to go sailing with your extra crew well before the rally start - its a bit late to decide you don't like each other when you're 200 miles from shore!

After Joe Biden used a crass slavery analogy, some said the campaign season had reached a new low, but Jon Stewart had news for those people last night on The Daily Show: If you really think that's low, you clearly haven't been following the campaign.
After Joe Biden used a crass slavery analogy, some said the campaign season had reached a new low, but Jon Stewart had news for those people last night on The Daily Show: If you really think that's low, you clearly haven't been following the campaign. Mitt Romney, for example, told Obama to take his anger "back to Chicago." "As a general rule, I find it helpful to not frame a plea for national unity by insulting a major city within that nation," Stewart said. "Second, are the Republicans really in any moral high ground position on the issue of divisive anger and hate vis-à-vis their opponent?"
They're all about divisive rhetoric, Stewart said. Chicago isn't the only place within the United States that Republicans dislike: New York, Hollywood, Martha's Vineyard, and Berkeley, which one pundit calls "a communist place." And conservatives seem to be blind to their own angry words. Case in point: Sarah Palin, who asks a news person to name one prominent Republican who talks like Joe Biden. "Let me ask you a question," Stewart said. "Does the lake behind you have reflective properties? If so, you may find the answer to your riddle."

American Healthcare: A Failure Beyond Understanding
By: Alejandro Rios, reporter
As we go through a pandemic, healthcare is an essential component of our lives that cannot be forgotten about, but as the nation with the most deaths worldwide, it leads us to question: what is the state of the American healthcare system?
The World Health Organization, or WHO, runs tests to rank countries' healthcare systems. In the WHO's last test, it was found that the United States spends the most per capita on healthcare, at around $10,209. Despite this, the United States healthcare system placed 37th on healthcare performance and 72nd on health; why? One would assume that because America spends the most on its people, they would have the best healthcare. To compare, the country ranked 1st for their healthcare system is France, where they spend $4,508 per capita on healthcare and rank 4th on health.
The problem with the American healthcare system stems from two significant concepts: it is not public or universal. Universal healthcare is when the government assures its citizens that they will have healthcare, and public healthcare is when the government provides its citizens with healthcare. The United States has private healthcare, where citizens directly pay for healthcare and have to seek for their healthcare provider.
Another issue with America's healthcare system is that many Americans get their healthcare from their employer. As Nevadans face a 28% unemployment rate, where can Americans get their healthcare?
Beatriz Montes, a resident of Las Vegas, was laid off from her job in May due to COVID-19. Montes relied on this job for the healthcare of her family. "It is absurd that when I lost my job I lost my healthcare. How am I supposed to pay for health insurance when I don't have a job." Montes was part of the aforementioned 28% of Nevadans facing unemployment and now a lack of healthcare during a raging pandemic. "All of the options I was looking at were expensive." Montes directly references options that would require her to pay $1,400 a month for health insurance for her family. "I eventually was directed to Medicaid for coverage," she said. Medicaid is the USA's version of public insurance, which only applies to those with low income, or in some cases, unemployment.
The United States' healthcare system is in shambles. COVID has only outlined this further. Michael Flor, resident of Seattle and COVID survivor, left the hospital in Seattle, a survivor of COVID at 70. His hospital bill was one million dollars, far more than the average American can afford for one trip. While this was happening, people in Spain left the hospital, survivors of COVID, and they would not have to pay a penny, why? They have public healthcare.
Nevadans are currently facing the highest rate of unemployment in the nation during incredibly difficult times, and atop that, they are facing a healthcare crisis. Where are their citizens supposed to turn to if they are sick?
The American healthcare system is grossly expensive and unreliable.

Q: Validation attribute in asp.net mvc My model is something like this:
public class Line
{
    public int CatalogNumber {get; set;}
    public int TeamCode {get; set;}
}

I have a view that gets catalog number and a team code, And I want to check two things:

*

*there is such catalog number in our database

*There is such catalog number for the given team

I wrote an attribute (that derives from ValidationAttribute) that checks if there is such a catalog number in our Data Base. But it does nothing!
Maybe it's impossible to such check with an attribute?
(I know that I can implement IValidable and override IsValid method but for my own reasons  I prefer doing it with an attribue).
I've to do it without serverPost (ajax would be good)
I'll really appreciate a good example hot to do it.
p.s. (We are using mvc3)

A: I think that Remote Validation could help you out with this problem. You could use it to check that the catalog number exists in the database:
public class Line
{
    [Remote("QueryCatalogNumberExists", "Home")]
    public int CatalogNumber { get; set; }
    public int TeamCode { get; set; }
}

Then in your controller (I haven't tested this code but it should be something along the lines of):
public JsonResult QueryCatalogNumberExists(int catalogNumber)
{
    if (_repository.QueryCatalogNumberExists(catalogNumber))
    {
        return Json(true, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
    }
    return Json(false, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}

I believe you can also have additional fields so that you could check that the catalog number is valid for the given TeamCode (I think the TeamCode would have to be nullable as the user may not enter one before entering a catalog number in your current model as the team code is not required). So your model would be:
public class Line
{
    [Remote("QueryCatalogNumberExistsForTeamCode", "Home", AdditionalFields = "TeamCode")]
    public int CatalogNumber { get; set; }
    public int TeamCode { get; set; }
}

and the controller code:
public JsonResult QueryCatalogNumberExistsForTeamCode(int catalogNumber, int? teamCode)
{
    if (_repository.QueryCatalogNumberExistsForTeamCode(catalogNumber, teamCode))
    {
        return Json(true, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
    }
    return Json(false, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}

I hope this points you in the right direction to a solution.
