He was born in Belize (Town) in 1894 and died, suddenly of poisoning, on 13 May 1956. Monrad was of humble parentage and a Belizean Creole. Monrad Siegfried Metzgen's mother, Esther Almira Bevans (born on 17 January 1869 in Belize and died in 1944), was the second wife of his father (the first one was Estelle Greene). His father, Karl Alexander Metzgen (born on 24 July 1860 and killed in Petén on 13 March 1930). His grandfather, Charles Alexander Metzgen, was born in Denmark. Monrad had three children: Louise, Humphrey and Frederick (Bill). He attended St. Mary's Primary School, continued to private secondary education. Monrad became an erudite person by his own private studies.
Monrad joined the Government Service in 1910 as a Copyist. After 10 years he was appointed an Internal Revenue Officer.
Subsequently he acted as District Commissioner in Orange Walk, an Auditor and then Director of Colonial Audits. He was Treasury Superintendent in 1932 and District Commissioner in Stann Creek in 1935. A serious, near-fatal accident eventually caused his retirement in 1939.
On 17 September 2009, Captain Metzgen was posthumously awarded the Order of Distinction from the Government of Belize in recognition of his dedication to Community and Public Service.[1]
In 1918 he was 2nd Lieutenant in the Territorial Army of British Honduras and was promoted to full Lieutenant when the Defense Force was formed in 1928.
Following the Hurricane of 1931, he was put in charge of the rescue of the trapped, the feeding of the homeless and the burial of the dead. For that heroic work he was promoted to Captain and awarded the M.B.E. by King George.
In 1935 he was given the Military Efficiency Medal for British Honduras.
Monrad Metzgen was one of the founders of the British Honduras Agricultural Society; producing an Agricultural and Industrial Exhibition in 1928 and 1931. In 1927, he convened an Agricultural Conference which brought together Planters from all over the Colony. Subsequent to this conference, the Governor of British Honduras appointed an Agricultural Advisory Committee with Monrad as one of its prominent members.
During World War II, he traveled the Colony making speeches on the dire need for agricultural development and become synonymous with his matra: "grow what we eat and eat what we grow".
In 1928, on a bicycle ride in the country on the Northern Highway, Monrad Metzgen conceived the idea of what became the first Cross Country Cycling Classic having been struck by the number of bicycles Belizeans used to attend weekly cricket games in rural areas. He developed idea for a cycling "expedition" to San Ignacio in order to test cyclists' ability to cope with a then-badly built Western Highway. The Governor immediately pledged support and offered a cup as a prize to the winner of the race — a race that continues annually to this day. He enlisted the support of such notables at Matron L.M. Roberts of the Public Hospital, Royal Bank of Canada local manager Charles Beattie, Frans Dragten, Reverend Cleghorn, medical officer Lieutenant Colonel James Cran and that of a young surveyor, Henry Fairweather. Within a month he had the whole programme together and launched.
On April 2, 1928, a parade and inspection of the cyclists was organized by Monrad Metzgen and attended by the Governor, Superintendent of Police and others, who congratulated the cyclists and sent them on a parade through the town's streets. The official race kicked off on April 5, 1928 from in front of the courthouse at 5:00 AM. The trail was along the Western Highway to Orange Walk (55 miles from Belize City). The first rider into Cayo (90 miles in total), Elston Kerr, was cheered for making it into town in about 13 hours. The men stayed through the Easter holidays, feasting, eating, playing cricket and soaking up the accolades of the Cayo faithful. They also visited Benque Viejo and San Jose Succotz, the westernmost settled areas in Cayo. On April 9, the expeditionists set off at 5:00 AM to return to the City, their progress reliably reported through of all things, the telephone service. Kerr, of Burrell Boom, finished first in 21 hours 29 minutes, 81 minutes ahead of second place Norris Wade, also of Boom. Race organizer Metzgen finished in 30 and a half hours.
Subsequent to the race, Monrad Metzgen formed and chaired the British Honduras Cyclists Association in June 1928. As a result of his experience in the race, he was a key proponent of improved public roads ensuring that successive Governors of the Colony became interested in road building.
Metzgen served on numerous Boards and Committees, including: Three terms on the Belize Town Board; the Belize Electricity Board; Chairman of the St. George's Caye Day Celebrations Committee; Secretary of the Welcoming Committee when Colonel Charles Lindbergh flew into Belize in 1927; Secretary of a committee to promote the building of a really first class hotel for the town; President of the Native Jockey Club; and President of the Eureka Band.
He belonged to the Belize Literary and Debating Society and gave speeches and wrote papers on the value of educating the masses, including campaigning for a Public Library in Town.
In 1925, with H. E. C. Cain, he wrote "The Handbook of British Honduras". The book includes over fifty Creole proverbs, proverbs like, Cuss-cus neber bore hole & Dawg hab liberty fi watch gubnor.
In 1928 he wrote "Blazing Trails in British Honduras" about the first Cross-Country race. (The book was recently reprinted by the Belize Historical Society).
In the late 1920s he worked on the "Archives of British Honduras", edited by the Governor, Sir John Burdon and compiled the great patriotic pamphlet "Shoulder to Shoulder or The Battle of St. George's Caye."
The Handbook of British Honduras, by Monrad Metzgen and H.E.C. Cain, the Brief Sketch of British Honduras, by John Burdon, former governor and the Book Shoulder to Shoulder by Monrad Metzgen, all talk about the wonderful exploits of the Baymen. These are all out of print and have been officially suppressed in favour of new revisionist history-making.

Banana + Chocolate + Nut Butter Protein Shake!
Sometimes we need a punch of protein on the go! Enter, this delicious recipe which packs a nutrient punch all while tasting GREAT! This is a great way to fool your kids into drinking a healthy "milkshake!"


I have some chicken stock that I've made, that I want to use as a base for a sauce for some duck. I am roasting the duck bones at the moment and will simmer them in the chicken stock for a while.
If I want to add red wine to this should I reduce the red wine first then add the duck/chicken broth and reduce further, add red wine to the broth and reduce at the same time or reduce the broth and add red wine then reduce that. Or not reduce at all? What would be the consequences of each?
Your question makes me think of demi-glace. From your question, I would say that you're trying to get a nice shiny thick sauce for your duck, one that tastes of red wine.
Reduce your stock down until it's about the total volume of liquid that you're going to want. The stock reduction should be roughly the consistency you want your final sauce to be.
Reduce down to desired consistency (so about by half).
This will give you a lovely sauce, with lots of that sticky goodness that reduced stocks deliver so nicely.
You might do this with all of your stock, then freeze cubes of unused sauce for later; they make a great addition to other bases.
Left-over alcohol is not going to be an issue here, by the way, you'll have long since boiled/simmered it off.
If this is a full duck, I would suggest doing 1qt of stock, 1 bottle of wine and reduce it by half. For the wine may I suggest a Chianti as well as it should go great with your duck. Since you will be slowly reducing this sauce and for a learning experience every 5 minutes give it a taste. This will help you when you make other sauces to gauge times and thickness to what the actual sauce will be.
My hunch would be if you want to play it safe, it might make sense to reduce first so you can taste it and make sure it's about the flavor you want in sweetness. Then you can add slowly while testing the sauce.
Keep in mind that you'll probably reduce the sauce further, so it's like adding too much salt too early in a sauce and having the end result be too salty.
If you're trying to cook away the alcohol, you'll need to reduce the wine first, and then add the stock, and reduce further.
Mixing the two together first, or reducing the stock first will not remove as much alcohol, although it may be that you prefer having the alcohol in there.

FLUFF: Rihanna's nipples banned from Instagram.
Mamamia Fluff
Rihanna's not what you'd call shy. She is, incidentally, what you'd call topless. Often.
This week, Rihanna's been posting a series of bare-chested photographs on her Instagram account – most of them from a Vogue Brazil editorial, all of them gorgeous. The coy Hand-Bra style ones were allowed to stay – like this one here.
But when 26-year-old Ri-Ri posted a photo with her nipples showing, Instagram officially banned it and took it down from her profile.
Rihanna and her 13 million fans obviously strongly believe that The Nipples Ri-Ri should be free and untethered by the laws of Instagram. So they've responded to the banning decision in a number of pretty-cool ways.
But first, here's the photo that was banned (nipples blurred). She's on the cover of Lui magazine, who clearly do not have a No Nudity policy.
Here's the illustrated version a super-fan drew so that Rihanna could still have her nipples – illustrated though they are – on Instagram.
And here's the meme Rihanna posted, also made by a fan. It's Ri-Ri's face superimposed on a photo from the '80s, obviously.
And, finally, to really prove her point – that The Nipples Ri-Ri deserve an airing – Rihanna posted a photograph of a bus with the magazine cover on it.
Man, this bus really makes Instagram look like a prude.
And if you need some more Rihanna time, here she is again…

Frenchy 8 years ago
Hi guys. The bus photo was taken in France. The French love naked bodies. That's why they wouldn't be ashamed to put it on a bus. Believe me. My dad is French and he always spoke about how beautiful the naked body is. It's not until I went to France last year that I realised they really embraced it.

"You may not post violent, nude, partially nude, discriminatory, unlawful, infringing, hateful, pornographic or sexually suggestive photos or other content via the Service."
This is a non-issue. Instagram's rules are quite clear. Rihanna broke them, so her picture got taken down. Boohoo for her. She and her fans need to get over it. The picture is on the front of a magazine. Either buy the magazine or look at the photo at one of the many sites that are publishing it uncensored. I saw it at Jezebel yesterday afternoon but I've seen it pop up at other sites since.

Brussels police protest against unarmed traffic duty
Brussels police officers are in uproar this week since, as of next week, they will no longer be authorised to carry a weapon when on traffic duty. "We cannot accept this," declared the SNPS union to Mediahuis press on Friday.
Since the attacks on Charlie Hebdo and Paris and the foiled attacks against police stations, the threat level for the police service has remained at level 3. Police officers, who do not carry weapons, are not authorised to walk the streets alone, unless they are accompanied by an armed inspector.
On September 1st, this is set to change. The city of Brussels is expecting traffic to be heavy when the new school year kicks off. "Because of the sheer amount of traffic expected, we want traffic officers to work in pairs and with no weapons," said the police force directorate in an internal statement.
The SNPS is against this measure. "We cannot let our men walk the streets unarmed," said Nicolas Beckers of the SNPS. The police force directorate has countered that officers will be in pairs, not on their own." The intersections will be manned by teams comprising either 2 officers or 1 inspectors plus one officer," said spokesman Christian De Coninck.

Unfamiliar Territory: Part II of II
In Part I of Unfamiliar Territory, we examined the teams which Michigan has never faced. In today's post, we make use of "The Matrix".
The Matrix is the product of about 10 man hours of work between December 2011 and June 2012. I made use of the awesome Stassen database form here. It could have been more comprehensive, but simply told, it shows the relative number of times teams have played since 1936 (my arbitrary cutoff based on the first AP poll) and the year of their most recent meeting (that is the season year, January bowl games rolling to the previous calendar year.) The teams were selected as being the 35 FBS schools from 2011 AQ conference (or independents) with the most wins all-time (look, we go by winning percentage, Boise State's small sample size gets in the way) along with 6 wild cards (teams I just wanted to look in to, like FSU, Miami, UCLA, etc.) Army and Navy are there mostly from a love of history. So there's some absolutely arbitrary decisions in there. If you're upset that Mississippi or Oregon State isn't in there, I'm sorry. (About the only one I'm lamenting now is that I didn't include BYU, but alas.) At the end of the article, you'll get the complete list of never have mets if you don't want to sort through my analysis.
Some general notes: As was pointed out by Pete Gaines in my tweet previews, the South was very insular. Just look at the number of teams that Auburn has never faced, it's staggering. As I pointed out in Part I, many of Michigan's SEC matchups have been in bowl games in the last 25 years.
So, my question, what are the ten best matchups that have never been played? What would you most like to see?

Unfamiliar Territory: Part I of II
It started with a simple premise. When Michigan and Virginia Tech were matched up in the Sugar Bowl this past season, many writers correctly noted that it was the first time that the two venerable college football programs had been matched up. It also marked the second straight bowl game in which Michigan faced an opponent it had never faced, even though we don't discuss the 2011 Gator Bowl matchup with Mississippi State...ever.
So I wanted to know, what Division I-A teams has Michigan never faced in its long 132 year history. I used the Stassen database lookup to find teams which Michigan had never faced. I also used a 1936 cutoff point (the first year of the AP poll) to find teams Michigan has not faced during that time frame. The complete list will follow, but let's look at the Big Five conference teams first, along with some commentary:
ACC:
Michigan vs. Clemson
Doesn't it just seem like Michigan and Clemson should have played at some point in history? But, nope, it's never actually happened. Death Valley seats 80,500, so it's not like a home and home would be out of the question. Plus, Dabo, so, yaknow.
Michigan vs. Georgia Tech (1934)
Also known as the Willis Ward game, I'm wondering if lingering resentments and issues stemming from that game have prevented a rematch from ever happening.
Big East:
Michigan vs. Cincinnati
Kind of surprising, because of the proximity, but then again, Ohio State has only played their southerly neighbors six times ever, so...
Michigan vs. Louisville
Interestingly enough, Michigan has only played one team from the state of Kentucky in history and none in the last century.
Michigan vs. Rutgers
As two of the "founding fathers" of college football, coupled with Rutgers proximity to the New York metro area, this one is shocking. I kept presuming that Rutgers and Michigan will square off at MetLife Stadium at some point in the future, but the Pac-12 scheduling alliance makes that less likely now.
Michigan vs. South Florida
USF played its first football game in 1997, so this is not too shocking.
Michigan vs. Temple
Temple would actually be a great team for a home and home, as the Owls play at Lincoln Financial Field. Temple was a MAC school until last year, so this could also account for a lack of Temple in our lives.
Michigan vs. West Virginia (1904, non I-A)
Michigan played Fielding Yost's alma mater during the run of four straight national titles, winning over the Mountaineers by a 130-0 score. While I think it would be great to play the Mountaineers, recent history suggests that this matchup is not in the offing any time during the Brandon tenure.
Michigan vs. Kentucky (1908, non I-A)
Michigan won the only match-up in 1908 by a 62-0 score, but it should be noted, like the West Virginia game, Kentucky was not considered I-A level at the time of the game (which is kind of nebulous at best anyway.) Most of Michigan's matchups with pre-2012 SEC schools have come during bowl games in the last 20 or so years:
Arkansas-1998 Citrus Bowl
Alabama-three times, #4 coming up
Auburn-twice, 1984 Sugar Bowl & 2000 Citrus Bowl
Tennessee-2001 Citrus Bowl
Ole Miss-1990 Gator Bowl
Mississippi State-2010 Gator Bowl
Florida-two times, 2002 Outback Bowl & 2007 Capital One (Citrus) Bowl
Vanderbilt-no bowl game, but that 2006 game is the most recent of 11 games
South Carolina-two regular season home games - 1980 & 1985
Georgia-two regular season home games - 1957 & 1965 (meaning Michigan has never played "Between the Hedges" which is a major bummer.
Michigan vs. LSU
This is not only the #1 matchup I would love to see Michigan make in the next few years, I am sure the networks would love it, the story lines write themselves, the teams would hopefully be pretty good, and honestly, given the SEC/Big Ten bowl tie-ins, its a distinct possibility. Let's just not do it in New Orleans.
I will actually make the argument that this is one of the five best college football matchups that has never been played. That will be Part II of the article (there's a matrix, it's awesome) when I get a chance to write it up.
Big XII:
Michigan vs. Iowa State
Makes sense on some level. If you're playing Iowa, you don't need to play Iowa State.
K-State was so bad for so long in the pre-Snyder era (and the post-Snyder, pre-Snyder era) that I can think that Michigan would not see any benefit in playing K-State. Why schedule a terrible purple clad Wildcat squad when you already are playing Northwestern. (Northwestern pre-1995)
Michigan vs. Texas Christian
TCU is only here because I had to remember that TCU is a Big XII team starting this season. TCU would be a tough matchup because it's a high risk/low reward scheduling notion, just like Boise State.
Michigan vs. Texas Tech
If we're going to play the Red Raiders, play them now, in the post-Leach era, when it's a "Dumpster Fire". ("Tuberville Dumpster Fire" courtesy Fake Dan Beebe on Twitter)
Mountain West/Big East/Somewhere?
Michigan vs. Boise State
Boise State, of course, is a up and comer, but Michigan State is playing Boise State this year to open up the season. Michigan and Boise State should figure something out. Just not on the Smurf Turf.
Michigan vs. Akron (on the schedule)
On the schedule for 2013, so that takes care of that.
Michigan vs. Buffalo (1901, non I-A)
Would have been a better possibility if Warde Manuel (Michigan alum) had stayed at Buffalo as the AD, but yeah, not seeing it.
Michigan vs. Kent State
Just kind of seems like a fluke. Then again, Michigan's only ever played Toledo once and Bowling Green twice, all within the last 12 years. If Michigan is going to play a MAC school, it tends to play the Michigan MAC schools (Eastern 10 times, Central 3 times, Western 6 times) instead of the Ohio MAC schools (Toledo 1 time, Bowling Green 2 times, Miami 5 times [amazingly, never once while Bo was coach], Akron 0 times, Kent State 0 times.)
Michigan vs. Ohio
Seriously, this needs to happen, if only to revel in our mutual animosity toward Ohio State. Then again, Ohio State has only played Ohio University thrice ever, so it's not like they're playing frequently either.
If I were ranking the matchups I would most like to see Michigan play among teams it has never, ever, played , it would probably be:
Stay tuned for our national rankings, some time soon.
Everybody else:
Michigan vs. UAB
Michigan vs. Arkansas State
Michigan vs. Central Florida
Michigan vs. East Carolina
Michigan vs. Fresno State
Michigan vs. Idaho
Michigan vs. Louisiana Tech
Michigan vs. Louisiana-Lafayette
Michigan vs. Louisiana-Monroe
Michigan vs. Marshall
Michigan vs. Middle Tennessee State
Michigan vs. Nevada
Michigan vs. UNLV
Michigan vs. New Mexico
Michigan vs. New Mexico State
Michigan vs. North Texas
Michigan vs. San Jose State

May/June is the down time of down times for college football fans. Spring practices are in the books, the NFL Draft has come and gone, and we're too far out from the fall to have any kind of meaningful discussion with regard to the season forthcoming. But the college football machine is one that is fed, day in and day out, by the tiniest morsels of information become three day stories. The cycle of news spins ever faster, the ability to disseminate the smallest fragments of a notion of an idea become fodder. I'm guilty of feeding this machine but I am also give pause.
This week alone, three stories struck me and I was left to wonder why?
1). Brady Hoke, speaking at an awards banquet in his hometown of Kettering, Ohio, when asked a question about a move toward potential super conferences, said that he could see it, and could see the Big East going away.
2). David Brandon, speaking to the Wolverine Caucus in Lansing, discussed the fundamental changes he has brought to the Michigan athletic department since his arrival.
3). Jim Delany spoke about the president of the B1G preference to the current BCS system, then a plus one, then a four team playoff, but one that was not wedded to a flawed system of polling.
Each of these stories caused disconcert among the Twitterati, created air for sports radio fans**, and endless ability to snark. I want to handle each one point by point because they all speak to something different.
1). Brady Hoke's superconference answer ultimately means nothing. He was asked a question at an event where he was the honored guest. People want to know the opinion of a major figure in the world of college football, and with conference realignment, superconferences have been much on the minds of people who have an interest in college football. Brady gave his opinion based on what he knows. Does this carry any more weight than a conference commissioner, or a school president, or an athletic director, or a television executive. No. But, many more people know Brady Hoke than many of those other people, so even those Coach Hoke's information may be more limited, his words carry more weight.
"But look, I'm just a coach. I don't know all of it."
Similarly, this wouldn't have even been a story ten years ago. Now, every comment at every banquet or speaking engagement is a blog post.
2). David Brandon's remarks to the Wolverine Caucus are another in the master plays of "David Brandon's guide to messaging during the off-season". Hmm, you mean David Brandon, the CEO of Michigan athletics, is speaking to a bunch of government leaders who self-select as Michigan fans or alums enough to attend a meeting of this nature? You mean there will be press present? You mean you want to show off how visionary you are because perhaps you still harbor visions of running for governor somewhere down the line? So you talk about change, about the future, about moving forward, about revenue streams, to people who are receptive to this kind of dialogue. Why? Because you stay on message, because that's your job.
3). Delany's comments, which came after a teleconference of the B1G's presidents, are important because I think so many in the national media are missing something here. Why are so many people convinced that Jim Delany is bad at his job? Jim Delany may be passionate about the Rose Bowl, Jim Delany may be a traditionalist, but Jim Delany was also the guy who figured out the Big Ten Network, at a time when almost everyone was skeptical about it, and turned it into a cash cow which essentially launched conference realignment into the stratosphere. So is it possible that Jim Delany is negotiating in public* by setting a B1G position far enough out that the conference and its member schools can give up things that they have publicly stated are meaningful to them, but of which privately they believe that they can be used as bargaining chips? Delany knows that the SEC holds many of the cards, but sometimes its not about holding the cards.
*--Just because I can't help myself, I am reminded of political scientist Hans Morgenthau's nine rules for successful diplomacy and can see at least four of them at work, tangentially, for Delany:
"The objectives of foreign policy must be defined in terms of the national interest and must be supported with adequate power." Define your interests narrowly, stressing that which really matters, and make sure you have enough power for that purpose.
"Diplomacy must look at the political scene from the point of view of other nations." Other countries have national interests, too, and so long as they are limited and rational they are legitimate.
"Nations must be willing to compromise on all issues that are not vital to them." If you've observed the first three rules, you will be able to see what is vital and what is not. If your adversary does the same, you can find a middle ground.
"Give up the shadow of worthless rights for the substance of real advantage." Don't worry about scoring legal or propaganda points; look to see what you're really getting in terms of national interest.
Now, all of that said, the fact that the B1G ADs caved so readily on campus semifinals sites seems to violate the fourth one on the list there, but still, I think there's something to this.
My point, in all of this, if there is one, is that I think we need to consider the speaker, the venue, and their motives when examining anything that people say, especially at this slow time of year. Otherwise we're just spinning our wheels.
**--Yes, I realize this footnote is not following the format of the others, but as much as I like The Scott Van Pelt Show, I was upset by the fact that on yesterday's show, Scott and Ryen were so ready to tell the Big Ten that the Rose Bowl is dead without thinking about what the Rose Bowl means to fans of B1G schools. Just because the ACC or even, to a certain degree, SEC, have a long term, long standing, over century old tie to the Rose Bowl does not mean that fans of schools in those footprints have the right to tell the B1G and its fans that we're stupid for having a fondness for something that occupies a special place in our history. Whether you want to argue that the B1G is consistently hosed by this arrangement is a whole other discussion worth having, but that is not the one being had at present.

It was near—as-makes-no-difference 5 months ago that we broke news that fashion photographer Nigel Barker, in conjunction with Adorama and accompanied by a host of photography elites would be producing a photography show and competition called Top Photographer, the likes of which we'd never seen. The 'Top Model'-esque show promised a title bestowed by industry leaders, but perhaps even more attractive was the promise that it could help craft you to become one. Well, out of thousands of entrants garnered, that number was felled to the final 5 who have been competing for the past month, and finally, tonight, the winner and first Top Photographer has been named: Congratulations, Scott Borrero.
Scott is a commercial photographer and social media influencer based out of San Francisco, CA. At 29, Scott has already developed an impressive clientele list on which you'll find names like Nike, Canon, Jeep, Ram, The Holiday Inn, Lexus, and more. During his time at the Academy of Art SF he did a 6 month unpaid internship fashion start-up which ended up taking him on as their head of photography, a position he'd hold for two years until going freelance, and culminating here, as the winner of Top Photographer – a title earned by the passing judgement by the likes of Coco Rocha, Joe Zee, Jeremy and Tom Jauncey, David Bergman, Emily Soto, and of course, Nigel Barker.
Part and parcel to the title of Top Photographer Scott will be the beneficiary of a prize package valued at $50k, comprised of gear, and most notably, a party and his own gallery showing where his work and self will find themselves in front of and betwixt Manhattan's beau monde.
You can catch all the season in its entirety here, and if you're in the neighborhood, tomorrow (Wed Nov. 30th) Adorama is hosting a meet and greet at their NYC location for the show, and we'll look forward to the next season.
Check out more from Scott here on his site and Instagram, and get a peak into Nigel's mind and his advice with my unusual interview with him, here.

Thabane flexes muscles
ABC Leader & Prime Minister Tom Thabane waves to the supporters
. . . appoints key allies to ABC's executive working committee
Pascalinah Kabi
ALL Basotho Convention (ABC) leader and former Prime Minister Thomas Thabane has moved to exert his authority over the ruling party by appointing former senior national executive committee (NEC) members, Samonyane Ntsekele and Prince Maliehe, to the party's executive working committee.
ABC spokesperson Montoeli Masoetsa said Mr Thabane had informed the ABC's national executive committee (NEC) of the appointments of former secretary general Ntsekele and former acting deputy leader Maliehe during the NEC's sitting on Monday.
Mr Masoetsa said the executive working committee's mandate is to run the party and make urgent decisions in between the NEC's monthly sittings.
Messers Ntsekele and Maliehe are trusted lieutenants of Mr Thabane who served as secretary general and acting deputy leader in the ABC's previous NEC until they lost to current secretary general Lebohang Hlaele and deputy leader Professor Nqosa Mahao at the ABC's February 2019 elective conference.
Mr Ntsekele also served as Water minister in Mr Thabane's cabinet from June 2017 until May 2020. Mr Maliehe served as Defence and National Security minister. He retained the portfolio under current Prime Minister Moeketsi Majoro only to be fired in a 3 February 2021 cabinet reshuffle alongside Reformed Congress of Lesotho (RCL) leader Keketso Rantšo who had served as Labour and Employment minister.
The appointment of the duo to the ABC's executive working committee appears to be a move by Mr Thabane to reassert his authority over the party which not only ousted him from the premiership but had over the past two years increasingly sidelined him in decision-making.
From early 2019, after the party's elective conference, Mr Thabane has been engaged in a power struggle with his party deputy Prof Mahao which culminated in his ouster from the premiership and the elevation of Dr Majoro, the ABC's Thetsane constituency legislator.
The Mahao faction won several court victories which had the net effect of reducing Mr Thabane's hold over the party he founded in 2006.
Chief of these was the December 2019 High Court judgement which barred Mr Thabane from making unilateral decisions without the involvement of full contingent of the NEC.
At the time, the NEC was overwhelmingly on Prof Mahao's side.
However, the Mahao camp has splintered in recent times with Messrs Hlaele and Masoetsa now backing Mr Thabane. They have even pushed for him to lead the party into next year's elections.
The move has been derided by some of the Mahao loyalists like the ABC's Mokhotlong MP, Tefo Mapesela, who says the 82-year-old Mr Thabane is too old to lead the party.
Mr Mapesela also said premier Majoro should concentrate on finishing his term and allow Prof Mahao to lead the party in next year's polls. He said Prof Mahao should be allowed to take over from Mr Thabane because his current post makes him the most senior ABC politician after the current leader.
As evidenced by the appointments of Messers Ntsekele and Maliehe, Mr Thabane appears to be taking full advantage of the fissures within the Mahao camp to reassert his authority.
Mr Masoetsa this week confirmed the appointments of Messrs Ntsekele and Maliehe to the ABC's working committee.
"Yes, it is true that he (Thabane) told the NEC that he has appointed Ntsekele and Maliehe into the working committee," Mr Masoetsa said this week.
"The working committee is a structure that assists the secretariat to run the office in the absence of the NEC's sittings. The ABC constitution says the NEC sits once a month but there are things which may need urgent attention in between those meetings which the working committee can deal with."
However, Mr Masoetsa sought to downplay the working committee's power, saying the decisions it made on behalf of the party could still be overruled by the NEC.
"It is a constitutional matter. There is a clause that allows him (Thabane) to appoint two members into the working committee – an administrative structure which cannot make any final decisions for the party. Its decisions can easily be overturned by the NEC.
"It is just a structure that assists the secretariat to run the office in the absence of the NEC's sittings. It is not a powerful structure whose main responsibility is just to assist the secretariat in between the NEC's monthly sittings," Mr Masoetsa said.
Asked if Mr Thabane had sought the input and consent of the NEC before appointing Messrs Messers Ntsekele and Maliehe, Mr Masoetsa who has previously asserted the NEC's collective power over Mr Thabane, said there was no constitutional requirement for Mr Thabane to seek the approval of the NEC.
He said Mr Thabane was only obliged to inform the NEC of his decision as he had done on Monday.
"This (Ntsekele and Maliehe appointments) is a constitutional issue and no one can contest it.
"His (Thabane) is just to say I have appointed these people as members of working committee and that's it. This (working committee) structure has always been there since 2006. It continued to hold its meetings even after the 2019 elective conference but there were two vacant positions. All in all, it is supposed to have seven members.
"He enjoys the constitutional power to appoint people to the working committee and the two are now members of the working committee. They will be called for the working committee's meetings whenever it sits and makes decisions which will have to be ratified by the NEC. However, the two will not attend NEC meetings because they are not part of it," Mr Masoetsa said.

OK, the story is little complicated here. Firstly, I found there is a mode designed for Evernote. I do really like it, so I tried to run the mode on my Windows 7/Emacs 23 environment. But unfortunately, it require w3m loaded first. Then the nightmare starts. After several days deep studying, now I know the way for Windows and Ubuntu now. Will check on Mac later.


An experimental comparison was made of two mediations of spelling instruction with sight words: a traditional paper and pencil presentation and a computer-assisted presentation. Five students identified as learning disabled participated in the investigation over the course of five to six weeks in an elementary mainstreamed setting. The microcomputer presentation consisted of a commercially available spelling program incorporating visual and auditory error verification procedures. A counterbalanced ABAC/ACAB intrasubject replication design was used to evaluate the spelling performances (percent correct, correct spelling sequences, and rates of responses).Findings1. The results indicated that the microcomputer presentation of the spelling words did not effectively enhance achievement over that of paper and pencil.2. The use of error verification procedures with the microcomputer format did not result in more efficient learning. Rather, these subjects learned more quickly without the verification procedures. Informal observations further indicated that the students ignored the cues provided for verification.3. The intrasubject replication format of this investigation indicated that there were no order effects of the treatment conditions or of the error verification conditions.4. The students in this experiment required a longer session each day and took more time to respond when working on the microcomputer than with the paper and pencil presentation. These students, however, lacked typing skills which increased their response times on the microcomputer.5. Informal observations indicated that attention-to-task behavior was enhanced by the microcomputer. Although the subjects worked for a longer period of time in this mode, their attention was focused on the task.6. Because of the questionable instructional value of much of the software, the use of microcomputers in comparison with traditional and less costly modes of instruction should be carefully evaluated.

Appearance vs. Reality
ByCarolyn Davis
At first glance, Tyler appears to be a city where blacks are, for the most part, content. It appears to be a city in which blacks and whites get along quite well. Everyone appears to know their place and are happy to stay in it. Rodney King would be quite pleased passing through this city for it appears black and white can and do "all get along".
This amicable relationship between blacks and whites can be observed at school board, city council, and County commissioners' meetings. For the most part, blacks and whites are quite agreeable in these meetings. Seldom, if any, are concerns or complaints raised by black elected officials, seemingly as if none exist. The few questions and complaints I've witnessed from blacks at these meetings primarily come from citizens who sign up to speak during public participation time, not from the black elected officials. School board members say they're not allowed to respond to citizens' questions at meetings. They can only listen. Consequently, many citizen complaints end up being little more than just that, a complaint.
I recall one black male coming before the school board on several occasions with complaints about how African American students are assigned to DAEP, the school district's alternative school for students with discipline problems. He said he was voicing the concerns of several black parents in the community. He was quite passionate as he spoke to the board. I do believe he used the term, "school-to-prison pipeline." Eventually, he stopped showing up. I'm not sure why, but I doubt it was because his complaints were resolved to his satisfaction.
When voting on various agenda items during meetings, black and whites tend to be in agreement. On those random occasions, a black raises a concern or votes differently than their white counterparts, in the end, it doesn't really matter since they're the only black at the table or the only one of two blacks at the table of mainly whites and are invariably out-voted.
The seemingly amicable relationship that exists between blacks and whites can also be seen at various events in Tyler. Some whites often show their support of blacks by attending events honoring a black such as a funeral, a retirement, an MLK Jr. Parade, or a dedication ceremony like the recent one for the Texas African American Museum.
For blacks and whites to "all get along" as they appear to be doing, other blacks in Tyler are left with a sizable price tag while whites pay almost nothing. The high price tag for blacks stems from the lack of decent and affordable housing and lack of decent-paying jobs. Jobs and housing are only two examples of the high costs being paid. There are other examples.
On the other hand, it costs whites very little to give up one or two seats for blacks to sit on the school board, the city council, or the commissioners' court. It costs whites very little to attend an event in honor of blacks. It reminds me of what Dr. King said after gaining the 1964 Civil Rights Act and 1965 Voting Rights Act before turning to housing and economic rights for blacks. Dr. King realized the costs were minimal for the gains achieved up until then when compared to the costs to be incurred to receive equity for blacks in jobs and housing.
To correct these inequalities that exist for blacks along economic lines in Tyler would be quite costly and met with much more resistance. Regarding jobs, blacks represent a low percentage of teachers and police in Tyler. Upon inquiring as to why there are not more black teachers and police in the city, the response often given is, "It's not for lack of trying." Additionally, almost all leadership jobs in the central office of Tyler ISD are held by whites, making major decisions about education such as what curriculum to use and what are the best practices for instruction. These major decisions are primarily being made by whites for students who are overwhelmingly black and brown. These leadership jobs are high-paying jobs and are held by the superintendent along with the leaders of the various Tyler ISD Departments.
Regarding housing, many, if not most, blacks still live in North Tyler even as many Hispanics have also made their home in this area of the city as well. Most whites still live in South Tyler which is where most of the city's growth occurs. Driving through each of these areas, one can't help but notice the vast differences in streets, housing, restaurants, businesses, grocery stores, and shopping malls. It can be likened to the story entitled, A Tale of Two Cities.
By no means am I saying there are no blacks faring well in Tyler. There are. There are blacks with nice homes in North and South Tyler as well as other parts of the city. There are also some blacks with good jobs that come with good salaries. They're just not nearly enough. Not enough to warrant the lack of interest or lack of discussion that currently exists surrounding this matter.
Being in agreement at meetings and elsewhere makes for peaceful and friendly encounters but friction is needed to help move things forward and access to better jobs and housing more attainable for blacks in the city of Tyler.

National Society of Black Physicists announces death of Dr. George R. Carruthers
Published December 28, 2020 By : USBE Online
The National Society of Black Physicists has released a statement on the death of Dr. George Carruthers. A staunch supporter of the organization, the award-winning astrophysicist passed away on December 26.
"He will be remembered as an amazing scientist, engineer, professor, and mentor," the National Society of Black Physicists said. "Dr. Carruthers is considered the inventor of the ultraviolet camera/spectrograph. He also invented the camera that took the first images of space. His work has been instrumental in the fields of astrophysics. Dr. Carruthers was given many awards for his work including a National Medal of Technology and Innovation by President Obama.
Dr. Carruthers was a visiting assistant professor in the research fields of atmospheric physics and astrophysics at Howard University teaching and mentoring future generations of Black physicists. Dr. Carruthers was an NSBP fellow and a staunch supporter of this organization. His passing is a tremendous loss to the physics community and to NSBP. Details concerning his memorial are forthcoming."
Astrophysicist George Carruthers was born in 1939. He developed an ultraviolet spectrograph, launched on a sounding rocket in 1970, that confirmed the existence of interstellar hydrogen, and a similar device that was placed on the moon by Apollo 16.
The Apollo 16 mission delivered the Far Ultraviolet Spectrograph designed by Dr. Carruthers to the moon. It is the small object behind astronaut John Young in this photo taken at the Descartes landing site.

When the trailblazing physicist won the Black Engineer of the Year Award (BEYA) for technical contribution in 1987, Dr. Carruthers was one of 40 Black scientists and engineers working at the Naval Research Laboratory.
In his US Black Engineer magazine citation by the BEYA selection committee, Carruthers was praised for technical contributions to the U.S. Navy and the defense department's space program, and his development of man's first moon-based space observatory, which was carried aloft by the Apollo 16 astronauts and placed on the moon.
His experiment, a Far Ultraviolet Camera/Spectrograph, permitted humans to observe the terrestrial upper atmosphere from the lunar surface for the first time and to observe celestial objects and the interplanetary medium.
NASA's Skylab 4 used the Carruthers-developed far-ultraviolet camera to photograph two NASA-sponsored rockets flown from the White Sands Missile Range to obtain invisible images of Comet Halley. These rockets, along with two others flown at the same time, were among only a few U.S.-sponsored space experiments to collect data on the comet.
Carruthers earned his bachelor's in aeronautical engineering, a master's in nuclear engineering, and a Ph.D. in aeronautical engineering, all from the University of Illinois. Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, he moved to Chicago with his family when he was 12. He was an active member of the National Technical Association (NTA)

We Will Survive…Together Drag Show
Diego's Story
In the fall of 2013 we received a call from a woman who was escaping her abuser. She had an 18 week old puppy, Diego, that she did not want to leave behind both out of love for him and fear of what her abuser would do to him. After receiving her call we immediately placed him into a boarding facility that we had worked with previously. After 3 days he became completely unresponsive and was rushed to the emergency vet. His owner was told that the outlook was not good for him. She was heartbroken. Our advocates talked with her about what options she had and offered her support as she dealt with the trauma of her abuse and the possibility of losing her precious puppy. We transported Diego to another emergency veterinarian where they ran tests, gave him a blood transfusion, and placed him in ICU. The doctor concluded that he had been poisoned with rat poison by his owner's abuser and it had been running through his system and killing him slowly for seven days. After a long recovery, Diego's fragile body fully recovered and he and his owner have been reunited and they could not be happier!
This illustrates how the animals in households where domestic violence occurs are equally at risk as the human victims and why it is just as important for them to reach safety with their owners. Diego's total bill was close to two thousand dollars, something his owner could not afford on her own. Without our help sweet Diego would not have been able to receive the care he needed and his owner, already devastated by her abuse and having to rebuild her life, did not have to suffer the trauma of losing a family member.

If you have a thing for large dial wristwatches but don't wish to have them too large, this is the right design to go for.

Q: How can i use spread only one time? how can i improve this code?
const { first, second, three, ...list } = minerals
    let newMinerals
    if (currentUnit === 'rd') {
      newMinerals = {
        ...list,
        first: first * 9.8,
        second: second * 9.8,
        three: three * 9.8,
      }
    }
    if (currentUnit === 'ch') {
      newMinerals = {
        ...list,
        first: first / 9.8,
        second: second / 9.8,
        three: three / 9.8,
      }
    }

i have two blocks, in one i am multipling and the second i am dividing, how can i improving?

A: I'd make an array of properties to change and iterate over it to transform only those properties, using a callback function that changes depending on currentUnit and Object.fromEntries:
const cb = currentUnit === 'rd'
    ? v => v * 9.8
    : currentUnit === 'ch'
      ? v => v / 9.8
      : null;
const props = ['first', 'second', 'third'];
const newMinerals = !cb ? null : {
    ...minerals,
    ...Object.fromEntries(
        props.map(
            prop => [prop, cb(minerals[prop])]
        )
    )
};

If currentUnit is always one or the other, it's a lot simpler:

const currentUnit = 'ch';
const minerals = {
  first: 33,
  second: 44,
  third: 55,
  other: 'someother'
};

const cb = currentUnit === 'rd' ? v => v * 9.8 : v => v / 9.8;
const props = ['first', 'second', 'third'];
const newMinerals = {
    ...minerals,
    ...Object.fromEntries(
        props.map(
            prop => [prop, cb(minerals[prop])]
        )
    )
};
console.log(newMinerals);

A: The most straightforward way to me would be to extract the condition and notice that division by x is basically multiplication by 1 / x;
So, you can extract the factor into a variable factor, which depending on the unit will either be 9.8 or 1 / 9.8 and multiply it in any case.
Also, this is assuming that there are only two choices of unit. For more than two, you'd want to change the ternary operator to an if-else-if ladder

const { first, second, three, ...list } = minerals;
let newMinerals, factor;
factor = currentUnit === 'rd' ? 9.8 : (1/9.8);
  newMinerals = {
    ...list,
    first: first * factor,
    second: second * factor,
    three: three * factor,
  };

Pericardiectomy
Pericardiectomy or pericardial window is a surgical procedure to treat diseases of the pericardium including pericardial mesothelioma. The surgery removes the outer covering of the heart sac known as the pericardium. It may extend life span or relieve symptoms.
Free Doctor Match Help
A pericardiectomy, which is also known as a pericardial window, can help with difficulty breathing, chest pain, heart palpitations and fatigue. The surgery can relieve pericarditis (inflammation of the pericardium) and pericardial effusion (buildup of fluid in the pericardium).
It's important to treat these conditions early before they cause deadly complications. If pericardial effusion goes untreated, for example, it can put a significant amount of pressure on the heart. This can cause the heart to compress, called cardiac tamponade.
A partial pericardiectomy removes the affected portion of the heart lining, while a total pericardiectomy removes as much of the heart lining as possible. In some cases of primary malignant pericardial mesothelioma (PMPM) the procedure may lengthen life span.
During the Surgery
Before surgery, a patient receives general anesthesia and will remain asleep for the duration of the procedure, which lasts several hours. A surgeon makes an incision between the ribs and spreads the ribs apart with a mechanical spreader, giving access to the heart. The pericardium then is carefully stripped off and removed. Along with it, the surgeon removes fluid in the area as well as tumor growth. Once this is completed, the surgeon closes the initial incision.
This procedure usually requires a hospital stay of one or two weeks, but the length of time varies by patient. While in the hospital, the patient receives pain medication as needed, and recovery is monitored by a doctor or nurse. In the first few weeks after mesothelioma surgery, some patients experience complications such as fever, redness, severe pain, swelling or drainage from the incision site. Such complications may result in a longer hospital stay.
Eating right and balancing your diet while undergoing mesothelioma treatment can help ease your symptoms.

Effects on Life Span
Depending on the progression of a patient's mesothelioma, pericardiectomy may improve prognosis or just alleviate symptoms. As a palliative measure, the procedure may have little effect on life span. For example, one patient in advanced stages of pericardial mesothelioma received a pericardiectomy to relieve symptoms. Because the cancer had already spread beyond the initial site, the procedure had little effect on life span and the patient lived for eight months after the operation.
In other patients with less progressed forms of the cancer, this surgery could have better results. In one mesothelioma patient, a pericardiectomy was followed by a chemotherapy regimen. This combination put the cancer into remission and the patient remained free of cancer at a three-year follow-up.
According to a 2018 case report, another pericardial mesothelioma patient was alive at four years of follow-up thanks to a pericardiectomy. The 54-year-old woman experienced a recurrence that was successfuly treated with another surgery.
"Depending on the progression of a patient's mesothelioma, pericardiectomy may improve prognosis or just alleviate symptoms."
Though specialists in pleural and peritoneal mesothelioma are found throughout the United States, the extremely rare incidence of pericardial mesothelioma makes it difficult for a doctor to specialize in the disease. Only 350 cases of pericardial mesothelioma are reported in medical literature, and the annual incidence is approximately 1 in 40 million (0.0022 percent).
Heart surgeons, known as cardiac surgeons, are the physicians who perform pericardiectomies. Patients should ask how many of these procedures a surgeon has performed to gauge the experience level of the physician. Certain hospitals perform more of these surgeries than others, such as the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio and the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.
Dr. Allan Klein is director of the Center for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Pericardial Diseases at Cleveland Clinic. Dr. Klein has also published several articles on pericardial disease and works with cardiac surgeons, such as Dr. A. Marc Gillinov and Dr. Douglas Johnston, who perform pericardiectomies at Cleveland Clinic.
Dr. Jae K. Oh is director of cardiac imaging and the pericardial disease clinic at Mayo Clinic in Rochester. Dr. Oh has published several articles on pericardial disease and often serves as the overseeing cardiologist for patients who undergo pericardiectomies with cardiovascular surgeon Dr. Hartzell V. Schaff.
Connect with a Mesothelioma Doctor
Finding a mesothelioma specialist is critical for improving prognosis and getting the best treatment plan.
A 61-year-old woman went to the hospital seeking treatment for chest pain and shortness of breath. An echocardiogram indicated the presence of pericardial effusion, for which a pericardiocentesis was performed. A pericardiocentesis drains the excess pericardial fluid through a tube inserted into the heart sac. The patient's symptoms subsided after the procedure. Three months later the effusion returned and another pericardiocentesis successfully removed the fluid, which tested negative for malignant cells. The patient soon developed constrictive pericarditis and a partial pericardiectomy was performed. A biopsy collected during the surgery indicated pericardial mesothelioma and prompted surgeons to operate again, this time performing a total pericardiectomy to remove more of the heart lining. Four cycles of chemotherapy with cisplatin and pemetrexed were administered over four months, and the cancer went into remission. At three-year follow-up, the patient had no symptoms and remained cancer-free.
A 72-year-old man was experiencing head pressure (when lying down) for three months and chest pain for three weeks before he went to a hospital in December 2010. Echocardiography revealed pericardial effusion and thickening of the pericardium. A pericardiocentesis was performed to remove the pericardial effusion, and the fluid tested negative for malignancy. The fluid recurred and the patient underwent a pericardiectomy to treat the persistent pericardial effusion. The surgery was effective at relieving the patient's symptoms. A biopsy taken during the surgery confirmed the patient had PMPM. One cycle of chemotherapy with cisplatin and pemetrexed was administered and the patient developed acute kidney injury from the cisplatin; chemotherapy was discontinued as a result. The patient passed away in February 2011, six months after symptoms arose (the average life expectancy for pericardial mesothelioma).
A diagnosis of pericardial mesothelioma can feel devastating to a person and their loved ones. If you or a loved one is diagnosed with this cancer, consider joining the monthly mesothelioma online support group to connect with other people facing mesothelioma cancer.

This was totally fun to do. So go check out the challenge at Scrapperie and let's see what you can create.
It's another Monday blog hop and I hope you got here from Wynneth's blog. If not, just start at the top of the list and see everyone's creations. Once you are done, pop on over to the store.
I loved the rich wood tones paired with some red so I used Queen Kat's Kitchen Goddess stamp with Basic Grey's Nook and Pantry collection. I have always loved this Kitchen Goddess and this paper worked so well for a wonderful card.
It's gonna be Tuesday for the rest of the month!
I created this card for the sketch challenge at die cuts r us. All papers are left overs. The background stamp is Kat Stamps and the foreground stamp is Stampabilities. I cut the cup with my Cricut Expression and Christmas Cheer, then embossed it with Swiss Dots for some dimension.
I created this card for a challenge at die cuts r us to create a new card using left over Christmas stuff. Well, I definitely have tons of leftover Christmas stuff so I cut the image from my Cricut Expression and A Child's Year, then embossed the border with Cuttlebug Swiss Dots. The stamp is from Hampton Arts. The background is the Cuttlebug Snowflake embossing folder.
Over at Scrapperie, we have started our weekly challenges. Come check them out.
This week's challlenge for Use Your Stash was BLING.
You know you have it, so pull it out and use it.
Here's what I did - I used black rhinestones as the butterfly tails - definitely not too girlie for a boy page.
Over at Kat Stamps today, the challenge was to use purple, blue, pink and lime green (with a touch of black and white) along with an older stamp. So I pulled out my Imaginisce paper which had all those colors, paired it with some Prism and American Crafts cardstock and a Grab Bag Happy Birthday stamp and this is the result.
The Grab Bbags have oodles of fun and funky stamps and are definitely worth the price. So head on over to Queen Kat Designs Store and check out all the stamps.
I am thrilled to be a new Scrapperie Tres Chic Girl! This site has been reorganized and I am part of the "Use Your Stash Challenge" Team. How fun is that. I know we all have stash we haven't used, so this will be a wonderful source of inspiration to get your stash out and actually use it!!! Challenges and examples will be posted weekly and we hope you will play along with us. The challenges start next week on Scrapperie.
It's another beautiful Monday and I can't wait to show you today's stamps. We were working with another Queen Kat sketch and I used the Forest Fairies stamp set.
Now head on over to the store and check out these stamps.
Well I was having fun with Queen Kat's stamps so I created a Friendship recipe.
Don't forget to stop by the store for a fabulous sale.
Hey, it's our first blog hop of 2010 with Queen Kat stamps. Hope you'll join us each week as we showcase some of these amazing Queen Kat stamps.
Today's card was based on Queen Kat's sketch.
I used the new Kitchen Goddess stamp set, choosing to use the words from this set.
Well, as we start a new year, I'd love for us to Dream about what the future will bring and hope that it brings everything we're wishing for.
Today I was playing with my new Spellbinders long rectangle dies. I thought I'd create a mini book, but found the longest scalloped die wasn't long enough, so I elongated it by cutting half the die first, then moving the cut portion up so that I got the size I was looking for. I then embossed the covers with my Cuttlebug D'Vine Swirls embossing folder. I then used the non-scalloped rectangle die as the pages of my book, cutting them so they fit. Using my bind it all, I created a binding and added ribbons. The tabs were punched with a Stampin' Up punch and adhered to the pages. Dream was stamped from JustRight stamps and the Spellbinders oval dies. It was adhered to some Doodlebug papers with a Prima flower and brad. A little lace jazzed it up a bit.
