Can you tell if there is a vitamin deficiency in the blood?
What is Holo TC?
How can I tell if I have a vitamin D deficiency?
A deficiency in vitamin B12 is widespread: in Germany, one in ten people has too little vitamin B12 in their blood. By the age of 65 and over, one in four is affected. If there is a lack of vitamin B12, nerve damage occurs. Possible consequences are tiredness, weakness, anemia and nervous disorders.
So far, no harmful effects are known from an overdose. If there is too much vitamin B12 in the diet, the body will not automatically take in more of it.
Certain drugs are also considered to be a possible cause of a vitamin B12 deficiency, as they increase the homocysteine level in the blood, inhibit B12 uptake or influence the B12 metabolism. The following may be responsible: diuretics (dehydrating agents) lipid-lowering agents (for high cholesterol levels)
Food supplements with vitamin B12 are usually superfluous for healthy people. Vegans are an exception – they have to supplement vitamin B12. Even those who regularly have to take medication against too much stomach acid or for stomach protection should pay particular attention to adequate supply.
Vitasprint B12 bottles can be taken for several weeks. A course of 4 to 6 weeks with the preparation is recommended twice a year.

Methylcobalamin. There are now more and more vitamin B12 supplements with methylcobalamin – the active form of the vitamin. This is absorbed and used much better by the body than cyanocobalamin, which must first be converted into the active form.
The aim is to alleviate the symptoms of a vitamin B12 deficiency. The same applies to disorders that affect the blood count and nerves – such as tiredness and exhaustion, forgetfulness or poor concentration. You take the Ankermann vitamin B12 tablets whole with some water.
Which vitamin B12 value is normal? Depending on age and gender, different normal values apply to vitamin B12 in the blood. The reference range for adults is 2 ng / l blood serum.
According to the most frequently represented expert opinion recently, values in the range between 40 and 80 ng / ml should be described as optimal. Bone experts demand that the vitamin D level in the blood should be at least 30 ng / ml, especially in people over the age of 60.
Typically, the holo TC should be between 35 and 50 pmol / l (picomoles per liter) – or above. If the result measured is less than 35 pmol / l, then there is probably a vitamin B12 deficiency. The Holo-TC test is considered to be the earliest marker for an undersupply.
The oversupply of vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is referred to as hypercobalaminemia; This pathological appearance is defined with a blood value of> 950 pg / ml or> 701 pmol / l (Andrès et al., 2013).
How does a vitamin B12 overdose manifest itself? You can hardly absorb too much vitamin B12 because the body does not absorb unnecessary amounts through the intestinal wall. In addition, if the vitamin B12 dose is too high, it can excrete the excess via the kidneys.
Overdose of vitamin B12 is highly risky Current studies show that this can be risky – and definitely does not bring any benefit. The Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) suggests a daily maximum amount of 25 micrograms of vitamin B12 per day for dietary supplements.
Values of 2 ng / l are given as standard values. Values of vitamin B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 deficiency is also present when there are values. Therefore further investigations are necessary at such values.
The human body needs 13 vitamins. Folic acid and B12 are two particularly important vitamins, but it becomes more and more difficult to "supply" them with old age. The heart, blood vessels and nerves in particular suffer from this.
Why is the vitamin B12 level measured? Cobalamin or vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin that is mainly found in animal foods such as liver, kidneys, meat, fish, eggs and milk. Cobalamin is, among other things, important for the formation of the genetic material DNA and plays a major role in blood formation.
Establishing a vitamin deficiency: the diagnosis. Vitamin deficiencies are also common in industrialized countries. It is seldom possible to say in concrete terms which vitamin is currently missing based on the symptoms alone. A blood test will help diagnose a possible vitamin deficiency.
Holotranscobalamin (Holo-TC), also known as active B12, is the earliest laboratory parameter of B12 deficiency. Methylmalonic acid (MMA) is a functional B12 marker that increases when the B12 stores are empty.

CRISIS IN EASTERN CAPE EDUCATION EE PICKET AT PARLIAMENT – 17 FEBRUARY 2011
The crisis in Eastern Cape Education cannot be overcome without sustained national intervention, and Minimum Norms and Standards for School Infrastructure
The school year in the Eastern Cape began with multiple crises. The public and media are invited to join members of Equal Education's grade 11 and grade 12 Khayelitsha youth groups who will be setting up a school classroom, with desks and chairs, outside Parliament on Thursday 17 February. The picketing and vigil will include the following:
An exhibition of photographs from our visit to the Eastern Cape "mud-schools".
Political art made of mud to remind our Parliamentarians of the conditions in hundreds of schools.
Speakers who are coming from No-ofisi Senior Primary School near Bulungula in the Eastern Cape. They are travelling especially for the picket. Come and support them.
Poetry, songs, and presentations by members of Equal Education.
Why are we picketing Parliament?
TEACHING POSTS: More than 4,000 temporary teachers arrived at schools on the 17th of January this year to find that their contracts had not been renewed because the ECDoE can no longer pay them. This hit rural areas hardest. An investigation is needed to find out why some schools apparently have extra teachers ('double-parking'), and others are understaffed and losing the temporary teachers.
TRANSPORT: The funding crisis in the ECDoE means the transport programme was stopped in January 2011 leaving more than 100,000 learners without transport to school. The ECDoE says it needs R247 million to pay service providers, and has only raised R60 million. Many learners currently have to walk long distances to school in the heavy rain that the province has been experiencing.
NUTRITION: The School Nutrition Program in the Eastern Cape has been stopped due to lack of funds, despite huge underspending in previous years. Tens of thousands are going hungry.
MUD SCHOOLS & INFRASTRUCTURE: There are 395 "mud schools" in the Eastern Cape. One of the reasons for this is that no national Minimum Norms and Standards for School Infrastructure exist. There is no standard that a school must meet. These Standards are called for by Section 5A of the SA Schools Act, but no Minister has acted on this provision since it was introduced in 2007. The National Policy for an Equitable Provision of an Enabling School Physical Teaching and Learning Environment, passed (due in part to EE's campaigning) in June 2010, states: "National Norms and Standards will be developed and will be fully adopted by the end of the 2010/2011 financial year." This means the deadline for finalising these regulations is 31 March 2011. We look forward to celebrating these before the deadline, and to helping the Minister implement them in every province, in every district and in every school.
FINANCIAL MISMANAGEMENT AND CORRUPTION: The Eastern Cape Education Department has received a negative audit from the Auditor General for the last three years. Due to a settlement in recent litigation between seven mud-schools and the national and provincial departments, R6.3bn has been allocated to replace all inadequate structures by March 2014. There is little chance of the dysfunctional ECDoE implementing this on its own.
A strong national response is critical.
Section 100 of the Constitution allows for the national Department of Basic Education to take over the administration of a provincial department if that department cannot fulfill its obligation. Minister Angie Motshekga has visited and assessed the problems first hand, but resolving the crises will require her direct and ongoing leadership.
We demand:
The national Department of Basic Education must fulfill its constitutional responsibility by stepping in and resolving the ECDoE crisis:
We demand a detailed plan of action from the National Department of Basic Education that is geared towards resolving the ECDoE crisis;
The National Department must take over the financial administration of the ECDoE to ensure that the school nutrition plan and school transport system are restarted immediately;
We call on the National Department to build capacity within the ECDoE to facilitate the delivery of basic education services to learners.
DATE: Thursday 17 February 2011
TIME: 6:00pm until 7:30pm
VENUE: Parliament, Corner Pleinand Roeland Streets.
Equal Education leaders will give a first-hand eye-witness report based on their recent visit to the Eastern Cape mud-schools, and there will be a photographic display.

Commonwealth of England, Sixpence 1653
The 17th century was a time of crises in England. The bourgeoisie, having become rich through trade with the British colonies, demanded for more political participation. King Charles I, however, did not dream of making concessions; he insisted on absolute power. The king paid for this rigid attitude with his life: in 1649, Charles was beheaded. Subsequently, England became a republic for about a decade. The so-called Commonwealth of England was reigned by a republican government under the leadership of Oliver Cromwell and the House of Commons. Some time after Cromwell's death in 1658, a king and the House of Lords returned to power. During the Commonwealth of England coins were minted in all denominations and with unchanged designs. The coin legends were now no longer in Latin but in English, however; and the royal coat of arms was replaced by St George's Cross and the Irish harp.

Christie Murray: World Cup memories, title success and the success of Shelley Kerr
Posted byamsterdamjames 8th Oct 2020 8th Oct 2020 Posted inChristie Murray Column, One on One interview
You played two seasons for Liverpool FC Women in 2018. How do you look back on your time and the club and how would you describe a club such as Liverpool FC in the women's game?
I am indeed not at the club anymore. I left in the summer after my contract was up. I did enjoy my first season in particular at the club in my initial stage when I was working under Neil Redfearn.

After returning from the World Cup for my second season with Liverpool I did find it challenging and I felt that I didn't get the opportunities to play that I was looking for.
You had a three season spell at Glasgow City. How do you look back on your time at the club and do you have any highlights and memories?
My initial three seasons at city were brilliant. Particularly the first season because I was able to play Champions League which was one of the reasons I signed for the club and obviously to win league tiles. At that point they were and still are leading the league in Scotland so for me it was the perfect opportunity to go and develop and to push myself on as a player.
There were a number of senior internationals that played for the club and then of course the exposure of playing in the Champions League was a huge draw for me to sign. In my first season we qualified out of the group stages (we were the first Scottish team to ever do that) so to have all our family and friends come to watch us in a home and away leg was a brilliant thing to be part of. I have some really great memories from playing there.
You have been capped and made many appearances for your country of Scotland. How do you reflect so far on your international career and do you have any highlights or special memories?
It is a massive honour for me to play for my national team and it is the highlight and pinnacle of my career. As a young player I always dreamed of doing so, therefore to make as many appearances as I have done and to be part of the squad that went to both major tournaments the European Championships in 2017 and the World Cup in 2019 was amazing.
Credit: Liondartois
As a national team player that is what we all have been striving to do for so long and to do it on back to back occasions in the last four years has been very special. On top of that to be part of the team that started against England was a definite highlight in my career, if not the highlight because it is the world stage and I think as a footballer and football fan you dream of playing for your country at a World Cup. I was fortunate to have my family and friends there watching so that was a very special moment for me.
You have accrued good experience at club and international level, could you say who are among the best players you have played alongside so far in your career?
Yes, There are a few players that stand out in that respect, definitely Kelly Smith when I was at Arsenal for one season. I think for me to play alongside someone like her and just to see how she trains and kind of witness how special she was as a player, her ability to change a game at the drop of a hat made her a very special player and I learned a lot from her.
Credit: Johnmaxmena John Mena
If I was to think of a young player at the moment with buckets of talent, I'd have to say my Scotland teammates young Erin Cuthbert is doing excellent and really well for Chelsea FC and the Scottish national team. I believe that she will go from strength to strength.
I have been fortunate to play alongside many great players and I would feel bad if I was to miss anybody out but I would say those two players are up there if I am talking about past and current players they would be the two examples I would give at the moment.
I can imagine in your position as an attacking midfielder and a striker that you have played against many difficult opponents so far in your career, could you say which opponents stand out for you in terms of talent and ability?
I definitely remember one player standing out when I was playing in the Champions League for Bristol. Her name is Dzsenifer Marozsán. I thought she was an exceptional midfielder who had a great technique on the ball and range of passing. She is just a very good footballer and it was difficult to play against her.
Finally Christie could you say who are the coaches and managers that have meant a lot to you and played a key role in your development as a professional footballer in your career so far?
Yes, there are two managers that definitely stand out in my mind. Eddie Wolecki Black when played for Glasgow City FC. I think at that point I had never really been exposed to that level of tactical and technical detail in training so when I moved to the club it was like moving up a level in terms of professionalism, concentration and intensity. I think as a younger player he definitely influenced me as a player.
If I go to the current day, Shelley Kerr as my national team manager has been influential in developing me over the past 4 years. She is someone whom I massively respect and trust in football. I feel as though she understands me as a player and as a person which I think is equally as important. Those two managers really stand out for me in that respect.

'We still don't know enough about the dangers of microplastics'
InterviewEnvironmentPolicy
by Jonathan O'Callaghan

'We still don't know enough about the dangers of microplastics'

On 30 April, the European Commission's chief scientific advisors released its scientific view on the environmental and health risks of microplastics. The opinion says this pollution could present a significant problem if it goes unchecked and public concern is growing, yet we simply don't have enough scientific evidence to understand the widespread risks.

To find out the extent of the problem, what we know so far and what needs to be done, Horizon spoke to water expert Professor Bart Koelmans from Wageningen University and Research in the Netherlands. He is chair of the Science Advice for Policy by European Academies (SAPEA) working group, which reviewed the scientific evidence for the new report.

How bad is the microplastics situation today?

'If you just look at the facts that we know, microplastics are detected in many (places) all over the world, including biota, water, soil and the air. From an aesthetical or ethical reasoning, people would say, "Well, we think it just doesn't belong there," then you could say it is already bad. However, others might say it's more important to first look at the real ecological risks, or human health risks. Then there is just a lot that we do not know. The topic is surrounded by large uncertainty.'

What risk do microplastics pose to our health?

'There are just a handful of studies that report that there is microplastic in drinking water. There is some microplastic detected in some components of our diet, but it's so little that you would like to see these studies (about the presence of microplastics) repeated by other groups to make them more rigorous and then reliable. But we know that, of course, there are also microplastics in the diet, so people are exposed to microplastics. However, just the presence of these particles in our environment, or in our food, does not necessarily imply a risk.

'For smaller plastic, like nanoplastic (less than 0.05mm wide), we know even less. We do not know what the exposure concentrations are and we know very little about the effects. However, we do know that very small particles of other materials, like asbestos, or very small particles that negatively affect air quality can have negative effects on human health when inhaled for longer times (at) higher concentrations.'

What does the new scientific opinion say about the risks?

'We concluded that we did not see evidence for widespread risk at this moment. (But) we also saw that if nothing would happen (and trends continue), then it is not unlikely that the chances of a risk would increase somewhere in the future. And that somewhere would be like 50 years or 100 years.'

How widespread are microplastics in the world's water supplies?

'Very often it's a couple of particles per litre or even a couple of particles per cubic metre, which is rather low if you consider that organisms are used to living in an environment where particles are present.'

What are the issues with regards to nanoplastics?

'The issue with nanoplastic is that it's very small. And the hypothesis then is that because of its small size, it would be able to pass membranes, and therefore cells. So microplastic, which is bigger, for the most part would enter the gut of an organism and leave it, nanoplastics might pass membranes (and remain).'

Would you say that public concern over microplastics surpasses what we actually know about them?

'I agree with the concern. However, I do not always agree with the reasoning that supports the concern. I think that in the messages with the public or in the media, some of the nuances are lost (due to the simplification of issues).'

Is there enough evidence at the moment to support taking action on microplastics?

'Yes, because lack of evidence also can support policy. We do not have solid data on what concentrations in the future will be, but if we do an educated guess, using models and data to try to predict whether, for instance, the concentrations of microplastics or nanoplastics in the environment will increase over the decades or decrease, then the answer is quite clear. It will not decrease, it will increase.'

What needs to happen to tackle this issue?

'There is no silver bullet solution, the one solution that you can summarise in a couple of sentences and that's it. I think the solution has to come from a combination of things. Are there alternatives for some of the plastics that we use so that we can use less? Can there be other materials that can be used in products, so that there will be less plastics? Can we replace some of the polymers by other polymers that would cause less effects? And then how do we do this? So then there's the role for policy to stimulate this.'

How long do we have to address the issue of microplastics?

'I think it just should start now. There is a lot of attention for it now, there are some budgets made available for research, there's a lot of movement towards the things I just mentioned. You see many groups and stakeholder groups becoming aware of it and starting to move to change. So I think that's a good thing.

'The first widespread effect that you could expect from microplastic would be decades, maybe 50 years or 100 years.

'The good news about plastic is that it can be reversed. I think it is feasible to strongly reduce leakage to the environment, to such an extent that these risks are minor or absent or negligible. There is no widespread risk now and at least we can do something to make it so it will not become a widespread risk in the next decades.'

  This post 'We still don't know enough about the dangers of microplastics' was originally published on Horizon: the EU Research & Innovation magazine | European Commission.
There is 'large uncertainty' surrounding the risk from microplastics, pieces of plastic less than 5mm wide, says Prof. Bart Koelmans. Image credit - 5Gyres, courtesy of Oregon State University licenced under CC BY-SA 2.0
An estimated 5.25 trillion particles of plastic float in Earth's oceans, threatening not only the health of marine ecosystems and animals, but that of humans in the water we drink and the food we eat. However, research into the extent of the dangers posed by microplastics is still just in its infancy.
On 30 April, the European Commission's chief scientific advisors released its scientific view on the environmental and health risks of microplastics. The opinion says this pollution could present a significant problem if it goes unchecked and public concern is growing, yet we simply don't have enough scientific evidence to understand the widespread risks.

Environmental and Health Risks of Microplastic Pollution - Opinion
The success of European research missions, which aim to stimulate innovation to solve major societal problems, will require a complete change in the way governments think about business and risk, according to Professor Mariana Mazzucato, special advisor to the European Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation, Carlos Moedas.
In the last few years, the integration of refugees into European societies has become an urgent issue. Since 2015, nearly 4 million people have applied for asylum in the EU and many are now beginning to make new lives here. What does it mean to become integrated into a new society? How can it be achieved? And are current policies helping or hindering? We spoke to Dr Dominik Hangartner from the Immigration Policy Lab at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, about what the evidence tells us about successful integration. Here are five takeaways.
Science is currently undergoing a revolution thanks to a new approach to the scientific process based on openness, inclusiveness and cooperation, known as Open Science.


Since Michael Fridjhon asked why South African market share isn't increasing internationally (specifically UK and USA) when our wines are receiving such high scores from renowned critics (see here), I've been chewing on the question, his article and the comments it attracted. Actually, I've been mulling this question over for much, much longer than that. My day job is getting South African wines into the hands of US customers. Not retail. Not wholesale. Direct-to-customer sales, exclusively SA-to-USA and directly from the tasting rooms. So I think about the US market all day – and all night, sometimes (because my boss is in San Francisco so thank you, time zones).
A single sentence from last week stuck with me: "…we're probably not yet ready – as an industry – to step onto the vinous equivalent of the stage at the Met." and I wholeheartedly agree with it; but perhaps for different reasons the ones regularly cited.
Here's the thing: when the question about our struggle to increase market share is revisited, it always returns to two aspects: 1) the discussion around the wines themselves (price, quality, variety, style) and 2) discussion around the country in question (their critics' scoring of our wines, the preferences of the average wine consumer etc.). All important. All relevant. But these broad points do not exist in isolation.
When you think of wine exports as a linear process starting at Point A (the wine in the bottle, at the winery in South Africa) and moving towards Point B (the consumer pouring the wine in the glass on the other end, e.g. the USA), there is a complex chain of many links (under the control of various players) joining the two. In this chain, these links all play a role in the success – or lack thereof – of our exports.
The links of the chain represent every person, company and pair of hands (literal or figurative) that handle, move or influence the path of the wine from Point A to B. These include (but are not limited to) the tasting rooms, sales manager, marketing managers, export managers, shipping companies, importers, agents, distributors, sales reps and retailers.
I work with many of these links. I AM one of these links. And I know many people who are involved in various parts of the chain. We are not only part of it, but we also observe it – every day. We see how the chain fails in different places. And we can't figure out why nobody else seems to see these failing links – or seems to care.
Weak links could be a tasting room offering lackluster service from underpaid, under-appreciated employees. Or perhaps a sales manager, that sours a relationship with a distributor through poor service. Maybe it's an importer only bringing in wines that fit their fattest profit margins, but with no interest in adding any SKUs reflecting the better quality offerings. I'd even go so far as to point to winery owners (or MDs or CEOs) who – despite being involved in the day-to-day running of the winery – seem to be rather inept at what they're doing.
So perhaps we just aren't ready to take our place in the spotlight of the international wine stage. Not just yet. Not while our own house is in disarray. The machine isn't completely broken, but critical parts of the mechanisms simply keep ticking over; functional but rarely efficient. We don't like taking a hard look at what goes wrong. We don't really deal well with criticism. We definitely don't like change and we don't always play well with others.
I genuinely believe that we are on a path to something incredible – I would not choose to work in the industry if I did not. And I am prepared to put money on the fact that we could be darlings of the global wine scene. But there is work to do and attitudes to change before we get to be the glamorous débutante at cotillion. There's no fairy godmother waiting to magically transform this Cinderella. If the princess wants her happily-ever-after, she's going to have to ditch the glass slippers and get to work.

He got his facts wrong Marthelize, (and he did only mentioned the UK). He failed to recognize the enormous structural change that has happened in the UK with range culling. This is the single biggest factor affecting SA wine market share in the UK at present. It's not just one link in the chain, it's the Mother Pin, bolting the chain to the export pier. This situation will not go into reverse. The strategic challenge facing the SA wine industry is enormous. It has long term implications for all producers who think that supermarket shelves in the UK are the future. In his follow-up reply he suggests chasing the convenience stores who are swiping share from the supermarkets. He does not realise these are the same people (Tesco's, Sainsbury's etc) who are attempting to hoover up all the retail food and drink business as consumer behaviour changes. He is distinctly uncomfortable with the recognition top end SA wines get from the likes of Atkin, Goode, Robinson etc. I don't know why, as he imports Johnny Foreigner wines to South Africa. The reality is that the top brands the critics praise will be responsible for changing the negative perceptions of SA wines. This is the long term brand marketing future for South African wines. And finally, he mixes up the UK and Britain in virtually the same sentence. What hope is there?
Thanks for the comment, Davey, but as you are basically elaborating more on Michael's original post, I'm not convinced you read mine at all.
Of course I did Marthelize. I just don't agree with the linear chain analysis, or pointing the finger of blame at the producers. The biggest issues are strategic marketing ones. In the case of the UK, it's being caught out by the consumer retail restructuring. Of course there are other challenges, but this is the main one.
Thanks Davey. I don't mind you disagreeing (at least someone cares enough to have an opinion!), but I honestly didn't see any connection between your first comment and what I wrote in my piece. And I disagree with you disagreeing, by the way, because I see the problems I listed every single day, ad nauseum. The issues you highlight are simply on one end of the chain.
I never implied that the issues I touched on were the only relevant ones (even though it's a pretty long list…). Also, I specifically focused on my experience with wine sales to the USA. I have no experience with the UK. But frankly, expecting that better marketing will be the silver bullet is a bit wishy-washy. Couldn't hurt, of course, and it's likely to improve the situation in numerous ways but it's not a fix all. Lots of messes that should really be cleaned up at home base before we go on to take over the world.
Last note: USA and UK hardly our only export markets, so consumer retail restructuring in one country probably has little bearing on the problem as whole, no?
I'm curious, you know a lot about the UK situation. What's your background/position? I'm assuming you're not just a Joe Soap consumer, but work in wine somehow?
Put another way, Davey, if the issues were about the structure of the UK trade rather than about SA wine either we wouldn't have been on the cull list of the supermarkets or else another sector would happily have picked up the slack.
As for the other remarks – about foreign commentators and about imported wines (neither of which come with any substantiation – which suggests that Davey has issues of his/her own), I hope the following will serve as a rebuttal: I have been friendly with several of these international critics for upwards of 20 years and have facilitated and funded their travel to SA on more occasions than could easily be counted. These are not the actions of someone paranoid about their views. As for facilitating wine imports – it's a safe bet that SA wine would not be where it is today if the imports had not been available for our winemakers and our wine drinkers to benchmark with and to enjoy.
Where we do agree is that these critics – over time – may contribute to a changed perception of SA wine in general, but for this to translate into sales many of the concerns expressed by Marthelize will have to be addressed.

Female employees still face subtle discrimination
On behalf of Employment Law Office of John H. Haskin & Associates, LLC | Jun 26, 2014 | Workplace Discrimination |
As some Indiana employees may know, workplace discrimination can be subtle. There are laws against expressions of overt bias against people on the basis of factors like age, gender and race, but biases that are less obvious can still be damaging. Women may face particular challenges in the workplace that they might struggle to legally define as discrimination.
From the outside, one sign that a company might discriminate against women is a difficulty in hiring or retaining female workers. The company may not be doing anything wrong on the surface, but there might be an atmosphere within the company that discourages women who work there. This atmosphere might involve referring to women as overly emotional or criticizing the way women look. A woman's colleagues, co-workers and subordinates may also tend to focus on her personality with a degree of scrutiny that men do not receive.
A woman who feels she has been discriminated against in the workplace in these ways might still think she does not have a legal case. However, an attorney might be able to pinpoint gender discrimination based on these more subtle interactions. An employee who feels she has been on the receiving end of this type of treatment may also get more leverage with an employer once she retains an attorney.
Female employees facing subtler forms of discrimination may wish to bolster their cases by documenting incidents in writing as well as discussing them with human resources. This ensures that if the case goes forward, there is a record of the event with human resources. Many companies would prefer to avoid the negative publicity that may accompany gender discrimination cases, so there are avenues women can use to protect themselves even if the behavior is not blatant.

After bankruptcy, 3 different owners, how Mediterranean restaurant Daphne's has landed on its feet
Richard Mora is the director of operations for Daphne's, shown here at their eighth San Diego County restaurant in Mission Valley.
(K.C. Alfred/The San Diego Union-Tribune)
By Hang Nguyen
In the past decade, Daphne's filed for bankruptcy and was sold to three different owners.
The latest ownership change for the restaurant chain — a formerly Carlsbad-based company that started nearly 30 years ago by a former professional soccer player whose family immigrated from Greece — occurred last year. Elite Restaurant Group, a Los Angeles-based company that also owns Slater's 50/50, paid an undisclosed sum for Daphne's 23 restaurants in California.
Since then, Elite has grown Daphne's into 32 restaurants in California, Texas and Massachusetts.
Clementina Munoz roasts vegetables at Daphne's in Mission Valley. The chain has eight restaurants in San Diego County with plans to open one in Escondido.
"To be able to do that in one year is amazing in the restaurant industry," said Richard Mora, director of operations for Daphne's.
Daphne's opened its eighth San Diego County restaurant last month in Mission Valley at 2195 Station Village. The restaurant is 3,000 square feet, bigger than the 2,200 square feet it occupied at the previous spot across the street. Elite also has signed a lease to open another restaurant in mid-October in Escondido at Westfield North County mall.
Even with the expansion, the restaurant count is still less than half of what Daphne's had at one point. In 2010, the year the chain filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, it had 69 restaurants, including 16 locations in San Diego County. After Daphne's filed for bankruptcy, it was later picked up by investment groups Wreath Equity and then Victory Park Capital Advisors.
Daphne's recently opened a restaurant in Mission Valley.
New owner Elite looks to continue to open Daphne's restaurants either initially as corporate owned or franchised owned.
Below, Mora, 42, chats about menu additions and ingredient changes, its expansion into Costco and its franchising strategy. The interview has been edited and condensed for length.
Q. What's been Daphne's most popular foods?
A. Hands down, they are the classic pita, Greek salad and Daphne's plate. Those three have been there for 30 years and have made the brand. They are our signature staple items. That's what people come to Daphne's for. That's what we're known for.
Original owner George Katakalidis did a great job, but we evolved it. (It's the same dishes made healthier.) As long we stay true to our roots, we can always make modifications. We have healthy grains, we have turmeric, which is good for your body. We use organic spring mix for salads. Right now, we just use wild fish not farm raised. We don't use chicken with antibiotics. We (introduced) halal chicken, steak and gyro.
Daphne's most popular menu items are the classic pita, Greek salad and Daphne's plate.
(Eduardo Contreras)
Our vegan and vegetarian options are not new but highlighting them on the menu is new. San Diego County and California in general is healthy and other states are becoming more conscious of what they eat too.
Q. Why has "California Greek" been dropped from the Daphne's name?
A. Daphne's has had several evolutions. We don't want to be just Greek or just California. We want to be Mediterranean cuisine. We will still have some Greek flare to it because that's our roots but not only Greek food. We want to explore other things, bring in different flavors, spices and condiments and broaden that menu. So we added the Mediterranean fish plate, hummus bowl, gyro bowl, Mediterranean salad, spicy grilled chicken pita and Mediterranean lentil soup. We want to give consumers more variety. That's our overall goal.
Q. Talk about the company's franchising strategy.
A. It was always an ambition starting with George Katakalidis to franchise Daphne's but it was never fulfilled. We have been able to franchise all 21 Daphne's restaurants in California. (Elite first held onto those for about six months.)
We wanted to make sure it was the right location, operating on all four cylinders (in terms of) hospitality and food quality and then hand them over to a franchisee. (Elite) inspected the food, reviewed how the meat was marinated, how it was cooked. How does the food taste? How to warm up a pita? Is it nice and fluffy and not burnt and crisp? Are employees welcoming customers to Daphne's with a big smile? There are a lot of restaurant selections out there and we want customers to come to Daphne's.
The Mission Valley location is owned by a franchisee but corporate is there to help. Escondido is corporate owned (until Elite finds a franchisee.)
We currently have 32 restaurants in California, Texas and Boston, only 10 of those are company owned. Our goal is to continue with franchising.
Q. How many restaurants would Elite ultimately like to have for Daphne's?
A. What is the magical number? We came to realize we didn't want to it to be 40, 50 or 60. We are going to see where it's going to take us. We are going to continue to expand the brand nationwide. We have 10 in Texas and one in Boston. It's good to set goals, but you have to be able to change your goals. If you lock yourself into a certain number, what happens after you make that number? We are going to keep pushing every day.
Q. Beyond the restaurants, last fall the company began launching a Daphne's-branded gyro kit for $10.89 in 90 Costco stores in California and Texas. Why?
A. The kit has precooked gyro meat that can be warmed up on the skillet. Our gyro meat is 80 percent beef and 20 percent lamb. It also comes with small pita breads, tzatziki sauce and salad dressing.
A lot of consumers go to Costco. Instead of going to a Daphne's restaurant or using a third party like Grub Hub, Costco is another venue to try Daphne's food. We're doing really well selling the gyro kits. In the future, we'd like to sell salad kits and dips at Costco.

Members of the Senate Finance Committee weighed the pros and cons of the current tax deduction allowed for charitable giving in a hearing on Tuesday. Senator Max Baucus (D-MT), Chairman of the Finance Committee, is holding a series of hearings that explore ways to overhaul the tax code, and this particular provision has attracted renewed attention in Washington's ongoing deficit reduction and "jobs" debates.
As state and local governments grapple with budget deficits and revenue shortfalls, Americans in crisis are turning for help in ever greater numbers to churches, charities, shelters, and other social welfare groups.

Condition: Good+ - in Good+ DJ. Edges of DJ somewhat ruffled, laminate lifting along 1" at the head of the upper panel. Leans slightly.
Illustrated with B&W photographs. This comprehensive and deeply researched biography charts his colourful career, which grew out of a luxurious upbringing and successful education to early achievements in the 1914-18 conflict, first as an infantry officer and winner of the Iron Cross for bravery, then as a fighter pilot, successor to von Richthofen, and the award of the Pour le Mérit. Noting that the inter-war years brought marriage into a wealthy Swedish family and early meeting with Hitler at Munich, the evidence is provided of the good impression Goring made on his future Führer. Was Hitler impressed by the military deeds and awards that he himself lacked? Did he misread Goring's abilities? Was he correct in believing the man capable of high command only to find him wanting in the crisis days of World War Two.

(HealthDay News) — For Korean patients with acne, fixed-dose combination adapalene 0.1% and benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel (A-BPO) is more efficacious than benzoyl peroxide (BPO), with similar skin irritation levels that can be improved with dermatologists' tutorials for A-BPO application, according to a study published online June 20 in the Journal of Dermatology.
Hyuck Hoon Kwon, MD, from the Seoul National University College of Medicine in South Korea, and colleagues compared A-BPO gel with BPO in terms of efficacy and tolerability in Korean patients with acne in a single-blind controlled, split-face trial for 12 weeks. Eighty-five patients were included; each half facial side was randomized to either A-BPO or BPO. During initial assignment, patients were further randomized to dermatological tutorial (DT) or non-tutorial (NT) subgroups depending on the presence of dermatologists' tutorials for application methods for the A-BPO facial side.
The researchers found that A-BPO gel outperformed BPO, with better efficacy in success rates and lesion counts from one week. Compared with BPO and previous A-BPO data from Caucasians, A-BPO proved significantly less tolerable. Clinical data were confirmed by bioengineering measures. Compared with the NT subgroup, the DT subgroup achieved much better tolerability, with comparable therapeutic efficacies.

Daft Punk Returns to No. 1 on Top Dance/Electronic Albums Chart With 'Tron: Legacy'
Redaction 23 décembre 2021
Daft Punk re-enters Billboard's Top Dance/Electronic Albums chart (dated Dec. 25) at No. 1 with its Tron: Legacy soundtrack, following the release of its Target exclusive blue/clear vinyl edition. The set registered 10,000 equivalent album units in the Dec. 10-16 tracking week, up 1,364%, with nearly all (94%) from physical sales, according to MRC Data.
It's the 11th total week at No. 1 for Tron, and its first since April 30, 2011. In its first chart run, the soundtrack to the hit 2010 sci-fi film debuted atop the chart dated exactly 11 years ago this week (Dec. 25, 2010). Among 10 career entries on the chart, the now-defunct French duo owns six No. 1s, the most of any duo or group, and trails only Louie DeVito and Lady Gaga, each with seven toppers, dating to the chart's 2001 inception.
Daft Punk's other Top Dance/Electronic Albums No. 1s are: Human After All (2005), Alive 2007 (two weeks at No. 1, 2007), Tron: Legacy Reconfigured (2011), Random Access Memories (21 weeks, 2013-14) and Discovery (2021).
'Birthday' present: Tempo and El Alfa begin at No. 23 on the multi-metric Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart with "Happy Birthday." The Latin/EDM crossover track, which heavily samples Reel 2 Real's "I Like to Move It," featuring The Mad Stuntman (which reached No. 8 on Dance Club Songs and No. 89 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1994), earned 1.1 million airplay audience impressions and 484,000 U.S. streams in the tracking week.
On Hot Dance/Electronic Songs, "Birthday" marks Tempo's first appearance. It's the first as a lead act, and third overall, for El Alfa, who was previously featured on Major Lazer and J Balvin's "Que Calor" (No. 6, 2019) and, alongside Sean Paul, Play N Skillz and Sfera Ebbasta, on Steve Aoki and Willy William's "Mambo" (No. 41, this February).
'Signals' on signals: Shifting to the Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart, Regard and Kwabs hit the top 10 with "Signals" (12-7). The fourth top 10 for Regard and first for Kwabs is drawing core-dance airplay across outlets including MusicChoice's Dance/EDM Channel, KMVQ-HD2 San Francisco and WZFL (Revolution 93.5) Miami. (The Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart measures radio airplay on a select group of full-time dance stations, along with plays during mix shows on nearly 80 top 40-formatted reporters.)

Lightweight utilities for inspecting and manipulating video container formats.

Lead Maintainer: Jon-Carlos Rivera [@imbcmdth](https://github.com/imbcmdth)

Maintenance Status: Stable

## Diagram
![mux.js diagram](/docs/diagram.png)

## MPEG2-TS to fMP4 Transmuxer
Feed in `Uint8Array`s of an MPEG-2 transport stream, get out a fragmented MP4:

```js
// create a transmuxer:
var transmuxer = new muxjs.mp4.Transmuxer(initOptions);
// data events signal a new fMP4 segment is ready:
transmuxer.on('data', function (segment) {
  // Tada! Now you have an MP4 that you could use with Media Source Extensions
  sourceBuffer.appendBuffer(segment.data.buffer);
});
```

### Metadata
The transmuxer can also parse out supplementary video data like timed ID3 metadata and CEA-608 captions.
You can find both attached to the data event object:

```js
transmuxer.on('data', function (segment) {
  // create a metadata text track cue for each ID3 frame:
  segment.metadata.frames.forEach(function(frame) {
    metadataTextTrack.addCue(new VTTCue(time, time, frame.value));
  });
  // create a VTTCue for all the parsed CEA-608 captions:
  segment.captions.forEach(function(cue) {
    captionTextTrack.addCue(new VTTCue(cue.startTime, cue.endTime, cue.text));
  });
});
```

## MP4 Inspector
Parse MP4s into javascript objects or a text representation for display or debugging:
```js
// drop in a Uint8Array of an MP4:
var parsed = muxjs.mp4.tools.inspect(bytes);
// dig into the boxes:
console.log('The major brand of the first box:', parsed[0].majorBrand);
// print out the structure of the MP4:
document.body.appendChild(document.createTextNode(muxjs.textifyMp4(parsed)));
```
The MP4 inspector is used extensively as a debugging tool for the transmuxer. You can see it in action by cloning the project and opening [the debug page](https://github.com/videojs/mux.js/blob/master/debug/index.html) in your browser.

## Building
If you're using this project in a node-like environment, just
require() whatever you need. If you'd like to package up a
distribution to include separately, run `npm run build`. See the
package.json for other handy scripts if you're thinking about

Ageing without Remembering: Fantasy, memory and loss in Kazuo Ishiguro's The Buried Giant
Sarah Falcus, Maricel Oró-Piqueras
Department of History, English, Linguistics and Music

School of Music, Humanities and Media
In his most recent novel, The Buried Giant (2015), Ishiguro presents an elderly couple, Axl and Beatrice, who live in a Britain afflicted by a mist that makes everyone forget not only their common historical past but also their own life experiences and memories. By focusing on the journey of the two elderly and increasingly frail protagonists within a fantastic, neomedieval world, the novel challenges the chronometric and future-oriented model of time in which youth is an asset and old age inevitably a burden. Related to this, the novel interrogates the model of generational succession as straightforward renewal and progress, instead positing a cyclical movement through which the mistakes of past generations are repeated once and again. In this novel, endurance in the face of vulnerability, as experienced by the elderly characters of the novel, seems to be the only plausible answer to an inevitable repetition of mistakes and the cyclical nature of trauma.

Related to this, the novel interrogates the model of generational succession as straightforward renewal and progress, instead positing a cyclical movement through which the mistakes of past generations are repeated once and again. In this novel, endurance in the face of vulnerability, as experienced by the elderly characters of the novel, seems to be the only plausible answer to an inevitable repetition of mistakes and the cyclical nature of trauma.

Editor Fired for "Chink in the Armor" Headline About Jeremy Lin
Filed under: General — Patterico @ 11:49 am
Another example of political correctness run amok:
The ESPN editor fired Sunday for using "chink in the armor" in a headline about Knicks phenom Jeremy Lin said the racial slur never crossed his mind – and he was devastated when he realized his mistake.
"This had nothing to do with me being cute or punny," Anthony Federico told the Daily News.
"I'm so sorry that I offended people. I'm so sorry if I offended Jeremy."
The editor has used the phrase 100 times before, but apparently that doesn't matter:
Federico, 28, said he understands why he was axed. "ESPN did what they had to do," he said.
He said he has used the phrase "at least 100 times" in headlines over the years and thought nothing of it when he slapped it on the Lin story.
Federico called Lin one of his heroes – not just because he's a big Knicks fan, but because he feels a kinship with a fellow "outspoken Christian."
"My faith is my life," he said. "I'd love to tell Jeremy what happened and explain that this was an honest mistake."
Any honest person would have to agree it is totally unreasonable under the circumstances to take Federico's mistake as a racial slur. It would be absurd to interpret the headline as mocking Lin.
Part of the reason we feel for the editor is that we believe him when he says the offensive connotation never even occurred to him.
It's not as if a colleague had come up to him before the story ran and said: "You realize Lin's Chinese, right? And that 'chink' is an offensive term for a Chinese person?" and Federico had used the term anyway.
It's not as if he had a little smirk on his face as he hit "send."
It's not as if he deliberately chose the phrase to make an obscure point about language interpretation.
It's not as if it really had been intended as an offensive pun all along.
If any of these things had been true, an interesting question might have been presented as to whether it would be reasonable to take the headline as a slur.
But in today's world, none of this matters. Instead, we see our Culture of Outrage run rampant. And perhaps the worst part is that Federico himself accepts his punishment as just. They "did what they had to do."
No, they didn't, Mr. Federico. Your entire career was offered up as a sacrifice to the God of Political Correctness, who is appeased — for now.
But He will demand His due again. And He will not be ignored.
Winning with social conservatism?
Filed under: General — Karl @ 8:07 am
Best-known as a supply-sider who worked for Ronald Reagan and Jack Kemp, Jeffrey Bell is building buzz for his upcoming book, The Case for Polarized Politics, in an interview with the WSJ's James Taranto:
"Social issues were nonexistent in the period 1932 to 1964," he observes. "The Republican Party won two presidential elections out of nine, and they had the Congress for all of four years in that entire period. . . . When social issues came into the mix—I would date it from the 1968 election . . . the Republican Party won seven out of 11 presidential elections."
The Democrats who won, including even Barack Obama in 2008, did not play up social liberalism in their campaigns. In 1992 Bill Clinton was a death-penalty advocate who promised to "end welfare as we know it" and make abortion "safe, legal and rare." Social issues have come to the fore on the GOP side in two of the past six presidential elections—in 1988 (prison furloughs, the Pledge of Allegiance, the ACLU) and 2004 (same-sex marriage). "Those are the only two elections since Reagan where the Republican Party has won a popular majority," Mr. Bell says. "It isn't coincidental."
It was probably inevitable that some would apply these observations to the current GOP primary campaign. Matt Lewis goes so far as to suggest "Republicans may be better off if the election is about values instead of money," implying that Rick Santorum is preferable to Mitt Romney.
As much as moderate Republicans and cosmopolitan conservatives might lament the resurrection of the culture wars (which were foisted upon us, and appear to have been rekindled once again by liberal overreach), they were electorally fruitful for the GOP.
The trouble for Republican presidential hopefuls trying to make hay of a struggling economy is that, when times are hard, liberals can always out-promise and out-class-warfare their adversaries. Thus, national elections that focus instead on foreign policy or cultural issues have tended to skew more favorably to the GOP.
One could argue that times have changed — that postmodern Americans are no longer interested in preserving traditional American values — that we're all too sophisticated or too civilized to care. I would say two things: First, prove it. Second, while today's voters may be too sophisticated to fall for cheap "family values" pandering, I do not for one minute believe the vast majority of Americans have suddenly turned up their noses at sincere efforts to preserve a just and moral society.
I will reserve judgment on Bell's book until I read it. Moreover, the world is not a controlled experiment, thus "proving" the issue either way is not truly possible. However, there are a number of potential problems with the narrative of social conservatism suggested by these pieces. (more…)


In September 2015, world leaders committed to achieve 17 Global Goals for Sustainable Development (also known as Sustainable Development Goals or SDGs) during the next 15 years. The Global Goals address a range of challenges to a sustainable future on this planet, including poverty, gender inequality, disease, climate change, and social injustice.
How can you help ensure that the goals will be achieved?
