High Levels of PFAS Affect Immune, Liver Functions in Cape Fear River Striped Bass

Researchers from North Carolina State University have found elevated levels of 11 per- and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS) chemicals in the blood of Cape Fear River striped bass. Two of those compounds – perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and Nafion byproduct 2 – are associated with altered immune and liver functions in those fish.
Scott Belcher, associate professor of biology and corresponding author of a paper describing the research, led a team that included NC State colleagues Detlef Knappe, Ben Reading and postdoctoral researcher Theresa Guillette as well as partners from the North Carolina Wildlife Commission and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The team isolated serum from the blood of 58 wild caught Cape Fear River striped bass ranging in age from 2 to 7 years old. In collaboration with EPA researchers Mark Stryner and James McCord, they determined the concentrations of 23 different PFAS chemicals present in the serum using a combination of liquid chromatography and high-resolution mass spectrometry.
"Testing blood levels gives you an idea of the 'body burden' of these particular chemicals," Belcher says. "The levels of these chemicals in the water were measured in parts per trillion, but in the serum of the fish levels are higher and in parts per billion, demonstrating that they have clearly bioaccumulated in these fish."
The team then compared the blood serum samples from the wild caught fish to those from a reference population of 29 striped bass raised in an aquaculture facility fed by ground water. "The serum levels of chemicals in the wild caught bass were 40% higher, on average, than the background levels found in this reference population," Belcher says.
In comparison to the levels of PFAS found in Cape Fear River water, elevated levels of PFOS and Nafion byproduct 2 were found in 100% and 78% of the wild bass samples, respectively. The serum concentrations of these compounds were associated with biomarkers of altered liver enzyme activity and immune function in those fish.
"These PFAS levels are some of the highest recorded in fish," Belcher says, "but one of the most unusual findings here is that smaller or younger fish had the highest levels of these compounds. This points to the fact that PFAS chemicals are very different from other persistent chemicals, like mercury or PCBs. They have unique and very different chemical properties that cause them to bioaccumulate differently, and we're really just beginning to understand why and how they do what they do."
The work appears in Environment International, and was supported in part by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (award numbers P30ES025128 and R21ES029353), and a North Carolina Sea Grant Community Collaborative Research Grant. Theresa Guillette is first author. Matthew Guillette, M.E. Polera and Nadine Kotlarz from NC State, as well as Kyle Rachels and Clint Morgeson from the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission, also contributed to the work.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are anthropogenic chemicals of concern that persist within the environment. Environmental monitoring revealed high concentrations of hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid (HFPO-DA) and other novel PFAS in the lower Cape Fear River; however, there is limited information on PFAS exposures and effects of this contamination on aquatic biota. Serum concentrations of 23 different PFAS in Striped Bass (Morone saxatilis) from the Cape Fear River (n=58), and a reference population from an aquaculture laboratory on the Pamlico/Tar watershed (n=29), were quantified using liquid chromatography, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and correlations between PFAS concentrations and health-related serum biomarkers were evaluated. Perfluorooctane sulfonate, the predominant PFAS in Cape Fear River Striped Bass serum, was detectable in every sample with serum concentrations reaching 977 ng/mL. Perfluorononanoic and perfluorodecanoic acid were also detected in all samples, with perfluorohexanesulfonic acid present in >98% of the samples. HFPO-DA (range <0.24-5.85 ng/mL) and Nafion byproduct 2 (range <0.2–1.03 ng/mL) were detected in 48% and 78% of samples, respectively. The mean total PFAS concentration found in domestic Striped Bass raised in well-water under controlled aquaculture conditions was 40 times lower, with HPFO-DA detected in 10% of the samples, and Nafion byproduct 2 not detected. The elevated PFAS concentrations found in the Cape Fear River Striped Bass were associated with biomarkers of alterations in the liver and immune system.

Intertype Typeface Catalogue | List of Typefaces
By James Wilson
We have probably the world's largest collection of operational mechanical typesetting machines. The machines are used daily, setting type from molten type metal. The type is used to create personalised journals: enter a name or other words online and we'll set a slug of type which is used to blind deboss the cover of the journal.
OUR TYPOGRAPHY JOURNEY
In addition to the Intertypes, we've a huge collection of printed material about the maintenance and use of the machines. We are gradually scanning and digitising the material and making it freely available online.
THE typeface and font catalogue - the 'Book of Intertype Faces'
... is available below.
Intertype's typeface and font catalogue - the 'Book of Intertype Faces' shows the huge range of typefaces, fonts, sizes and weights that were available in the 1950s for the mechanical line-casting machines that were used by the newspaper industry, book publishers and jobbing printers. Intertype manufactured mechanical linecasting machines from 1910 to around 1970. Prelogram has what is probably the world's largest collection - around a dozen - of operational Intertype machines. Three of the machines are still in use, casting type using the brass matrices and molten metal. The type is used to emboss Moleskine notebooks and print the text in Prelogram's greetings cards.
Intertype information
The introduction to the catalogue contains information about Intertype's matrices and how to order them. The catalogue cost £3 3s 0d, or around £55 at current prices.

Special characters & leaders
In addition to the many typefaces available, Intertype supplied a huge selection of leaders and special characters. Tables were typeset using leader matrices which created horizontal or vertical rows of dots, dashes and solid lines. The special characters include many of those to be found in word processing software today – arrows, fractions, punctuation marks, mathematical characters, ornaments, religious symbols, musical notes etc.

Originally designed by Vincent Figgins (1766 – 1844) in London, England in 1815. Antique was an early name for the slab serifs also known as Egyptians. The style was probably developed by sign writers in the early 19th century where the heavy letter forms were easier to paint than delicate styles and better suited to display. Figgins served his apprenticeship at the Joseph Jackson (1733 – 1792) foundry in London. He issued his first specimen book in 1792. Figgins set up his own foundry after Jackson's death which had a reputation as one of the best. Figgins cut type for the Oxford University Press and the East India Company. He was a member of the Society or Association of Letter-Founders, formed in 1793 and 'Convened for the purpose of taking into consideration the enormous increase of the Prices in the various Articles made use of in the Business of Type Founding'. The Society sought to regulate the type trade by price-fixing and setting terms for the trade. The Society's response to demands for increased wages from their workmen – casters, rubbers and dressers – was to agree in May 1800 that '… no servant be, in future, employed, unless he leave his last place, his work being finished, and clear of debt.'

Originally designed by John Baskerville (1706 – 1775) in Birmingham, England in 1757. Baskerville began his career as a printer and typefounder in Birmingham in about 1750. His eponymous font dates from around 1757 and reflects the influence of William Caslon's types and the calligraphic style developed in Italy in the 16th century which had smoother curves and more contrast between thin and thick strokes. It has been suggested that Baskerville did not make his own letter punches but supervised the making of them by John Handy. The original punches are now in the University of Cambridge library. Baskerville's 'housekeeper' was for many years Sarah Eaves. Eaves was married with three children, but her husband had deserted her and fled the country after being convicted of fraud. The husband died in 1764 and Eaves and Baskerville were able to be married.

Bell Gothic
Designed by Chauncey H Griffith (1879 – 1956) at the Mergenthaler Linotype company, USA in 1938. Griffith was born in Ohio, USA and worked for the Mergenthaler Linotype Company from 1906. He started as salesman, then sales manager and by 1948 was vice-president in charge of typographic development. Bell Gothic was designed in 1938 and, though credited to Griffith, was probably a collaboration between the Bell Telephone Company's typographer and Mergenthaler Linotype. It is a slender sans serif and economical in terms of space. It was both designed and used for telephone directories.

Bodoni
Originally designed by Giambattista Bodoni (1740 – 1813) in Parma, Italy c1790. Bodoni was a printer, typographer and prolific type-designer in Parma, Italy. Bodini was born into a family of typographers and cut around 300 fonts from 1780 onwards. The modern Bodoni fonts are re-cuttings of his original typefaces. The original re-cutting was by Morris Fuller Benton of American Typefounders in 1907. This version was then copied by other foundries, including Intertype. Bodoni fonts have a marked contrast between thin and thick strokes and build on the developments of William Caslon and John Baskerville. Bodoni's major developments in typography included making upper and lower serifs uniform and thin in contrast to the character stems; and giving the internal bowls and curves of letters a vertical and less rounded internal profile.

Bookface Old Style
Designed by Alexander Phemister (1829 – 1894) at the Miller & Richard Foundry in Edinburgh, Scotland c1860. Phemister was born in Edinburgh. After his apprenticeship with a punch cutter, he worked for the Edinburgh type foundry Miller & Richard. Phemister completed Old Style in 1860. He emigrated to the USA in 1861 where he cut Franklin Old Style based on Old Style for his new employers – Phelps, Dalton & Co, Boston USA, which became part of the Dickinson Type Foundry and then American Type Founders. Phemister's Old Style was intended to have old-face qualities but without the archaic aspects of Caslon Old Face. The serifs are finer and sharper than Caslon. Old Style was very successful and much copied. Intertype's version was called Bookface Old Style and there were Linotype versions called Bookprint and Dickenson Old Style.

Cairo was an Intertype typeface based on Memphis designed by Rudolf Wolf at the Stempel foundry in Frankfurt, Germany in 1929. Cairo is very similar to, and no doubt derivative of, the Memphis face designed by Rudolf Wolf in 1929. Wolf was employed by the Stempel foundry in Frankfurt, Germany. Memphis was the first font in the modern Egyptian revival style. A characteristic of the Egyptians is, of course, the extensive use of slab serifs – the blocky flourishes at the end of the characters.

Caslon Old Face
Caslon Old face was originally designed by William Caslon (1692–1766) in London, England c1725. Caslon is perhaps England's most famous type founder. He was born in Worcestershire and apprenticed in London in 1706 to a metalworker who specialised in engraving of gun barrels. Caslon's first face was completed in 1724 and his first complete specimen sheet dates from 1734. Types from Caslon's foundry were commonly used for printed matter in the next 50 years both in Britain and North America. Caslon's foundry moved to Chiswell Street East London around 1737 and remained there until 1936. Caslon Old Face is based on Dutch types from the late 17th century. The typeface has been much copied in the three centuries since it was first cut. Most foundries had their own versions or variations of Caslon Old Face. Intertype's Caslon Bold was re-cut in 1960.

Designed by Linn Boyd Benton (1844 – 1932) at the American Typefounders Company, USA in 1894. Benton co-owned a type-foundry which merged with others to form the American Typefounders Company in 1892. Century was designed by Benton in 1894 in collaboration with Theodore Low De Vinne for the publishers of the Century Magazine. Century was blacker and more readable than the font used previously, and slightly condensed to fit the two-column layout of the magazine. Century Expanded was released by American Typefounders in 1900 and there followed numerous variations. Century was Benton's only face, though he originated other advances in typography. His invention of an effective punch cutting machine apparently 'saved' the Linotype machine. The discovery of Benton's punch cutting machine by Linotype's Attorney – Philip T Dodge – meant Linotype could produce a large number of punches, which in turn allowed the manufacture of an unlimited number of matrices. The Linotype machine could not have been a success without mass production of matrices.

Cheltonian
Cheltonian was an Intertype typeface based on Cheltenham designed by Bertram G Goodhue (1869 – 1924) for American Typefounders and Mergenthaler Linotype, USA c1902. Goodhue was an architect in the Gothic revival style. He is known for a number of Gothic religious buildings, the US Military Academy buildings at West Point and the Nebraska State Capitol. He was a follower of William Morris and, in addition to Cheltenham, he designed an altar book in 1896 using the specially designed Merrymont typeface with gothic borders and ornaments. Despite being described as 'gently idiosyncratic', 'unattractive' and 'strangely popular', Cheltenham has been much copied. As well as Intertype's Cheltonian face, Stephenson Blake issued a version of Cheltenham called Winchester, and Monotype a version called Gloucester.

Cloister Old Style
Designed by Morris Fuller Benton (1872 – 1948) at the worked for the American Type Founders Company, USA c1897 Benton worked for the American Type Founders Company becoming chief designer around 1900. He was a prolific designer of typefaces and his work included Franklin Gothic and the re-cutting of Bodoni. Cloister Old Style is based on the roman face of Nicholas Jenson (1420 – 1480) designed and cast in Venice. The revival of the Venetian style was due in part to the work of William Morris. It has been suggested that Intertype's Cloister Old Style can be distinguished from Benton's in that the 'e' has a straight bar, though if there is a difference it is hard to perceive.

Designed for the Intertype Corporation in Brooklyn, New York, USA in 1948. George F Trenholm (1886 – 1958) was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts and designed several faces for the Intertype Corporation. Cornell was his last typeface for Intertype in 1948. Interytpe described the face as 'unobtrusive in character, with a quiet easy readability, with an evenness of colour, now so frequently sought for in the modern book page, and with a splendid legibility for a wide diversity of periodical and jobbing work. Subtle change of stroke from thick to thin, carefully considered distribution of weight, and a confident serif formation, help to impart to Cornell an appearance which is undoubtedly modern.'

De Vinne Modern
Originally designed by Gustav F Shroeder (1861 – ?) at the Central Type Foundry in St Louis, USA in 1890. Schroeder was born near Berlin and apprenticed as an engraver. He emigrated to the US in his 20s and worked at the Central Type Foundry in St Louis. Schroeder designed many typefaces in a range of styles for Central Type . De Vinne was created in 1890 and there are many variations of which De Vinne Modern was Intertype's. The face is named after Theodore Low DeVinne (1828 – 1914), the American printer and typographer. DeVinne authored a number of books on printing, typography and composition. DeVinne was instrumental in the creation of the Century Roman typeface.

Designed by Sjoerd Hendrik de Roos (1877 - 1962) in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in 1933. De Roos was known as 'the first professional typographic designer in the Netherlands'. He trained as a lithographer and was influenced by the Arts & Crafts movement. He was employed by the Amsterdam type foundry between 1907 and 1947 and designed a dozen typefaces, book covers and stamps for the Dutch post office. Egmont is a re-working of classic letterforms and features long downstrokes and double serifs.

Engravers Old English
Designed by Morris Fuller Benton (1872 – 1948) in the early 20th century - see Cloister above for biographical information. Similar faces had been used for hundreds of years before its revival by Benton. As the name suggest, the face was modelled on the work of engravers.There are a number of similar faces including Linotype's Old English text and Monotype's Old English.

Malin Head – Star Wars
It was an honour to attend the official opening of the R2D2 road in Ireland's Most Northerly Pub, Farren's Bar at Malin Head earlier today in advance of the inaugural 'May The Fourth Be With You' festival next month, (3rd – 5th May).
New signage was unveiled on what was previously the R242 at Malin Head, the filming location of the recent 'Star Wars VIII: The Last Jedi'. The quirky initiative is credit to the hard-working team at Go Visit Inishowen along with our local councillors and Minister Joe McHugh who see the huge tourism significance in the link.
Banba's Crown in Malin Head has always been a bucket lister as it's Ireland's most northerly point but it now has an added appeal for Star Wars fans who want to walk in the footsteps of Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill).
Malin Head is included on my Inishowen tour with photo opportunities at the new R2D2 road signs. But for hardcore fans, a walking tour with Bren Whelan of Donegal Climbing is a must. Bren's first-hand tales from helping Lucas Film choose Malin Head to working on set during filming are as close to being there yourself as you'll get! Malin Head Community Centre is also a hub of local knowledge about the filming – Ali Farren is the man with all the info 😉

Import European, Cars and Trucks, Auto Repair and service in Portland.
Where do I even begin? These guys were so helpful at a time when I needed honesty and efficient service most. I ended up stuck in Portland recently while staying at a friends house due to a flat tire. My friend recommended E&A Auto Repair as they had been able to help him in the past and were affordable. So we headed on over with my tire and an hour later were back at his house with it safely repaired. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because They aren't located in Seattle!
We have had Audi A4 and A6 cars for years, and it was always really expensive to get them fixed and you have to be sure the people know how to work on them, so we usually went to the local dealer. They did fine but it was pretty expensive. Then I found E&A, recommended by a family friend. They have been fixing our Audi the last few years and I've always been informed on price and the work has been done once, and fixed the issues. I feel confident bringing the car to them and I know I will get a good value. The only negative for improvement is their front office - it feels like a mechanics office - they could benefit from having it feel more like a dealership service office.
I've been bringing my cars here for a couple years now, and they always go over and above to help me out!
I have been taking my cars to E&A since 2012. The first thing Nassier did was fix my daughter's Honda Civic after the Honda dealer made a pis poor attempt to fix it at double the cost. I have since brought in our Toyota Tundra, Toyota Sienna, Toyota Prius, and our Istaca RV on a Dodge Sprinter Chassis with a Mercedes diesel engine. All repairs and maintenance have been great and cost below any other shops that I have been to. Not to mention that you get a 12 month/12,000 mile warranty on at least some of the repairs. I have never seen a shop with that good of a warranty. Taking my cars to Nassier's is like taking them to my buddies place.
A very rainy Saturday on the way to the airport when our windshield wipers stopped working - detached from the motor somehow. No one else in the area was open so we were thrilled when E&A picked up the phone and had us come right over. They fixed it immediately and didn't charge us a cent. We wouldn't have been able to drive without it. We would have been stuck in the car with an out of town guest and a 6 year old for who knows how long. Not only were we incredibly grateful but we thoroughly enjoyed our warm and personable hosts - that's how it felt, like they were taking care of us like hosts.
I now bring both of my cars here for their oil change. The speed and quality of the service is fantastic! Nazier, the owner, is accommodating and provides good customer service. I recommend E&A Auto repair unreservedly.
I am now a big fan of E&A. I've been in the area outside of Portland for 2 weeks working on a TV pilot. One of our vans (the one that has to carry the most equipment) kept giving us problems last week.
No Van = No Equipment = No TV Pilot.
I found E&A through Yelp and called to explain my situation. They not only agreed to see us that morning, they also found the problem and had us back on the road by the end of the day.
Thanks to E&A, we stayed on schedule and finished our work over the weekend. I am also way more confident driving back to Los Angeles thanks to their expert work.
Was passing through last weekend on a road trip from LA visiting my family. The engine was overheating and we needed to get it checked out. E and A was right around the corner and so we slowly drove it in. The staff was extremely helpful and proactive. I was worried that we might have to keep the car there overnight. They were super empathetic to our situation and understood that we had to get back on the road asap. They diagnosed the problem quickly thank god it was not a costly repair and had to change some tube.
Anyway I feel like I have to give these guys a shout out because they helped us get back on the road and were very helpful!
I went down to Portland with my friend, and of course his new car broke down. After calling a few shops we found E&A and the owner was great. We had it towed to his shop and it ended up only being a sensor. It was fixed within an hour and the owner worked on it himself. Every other shop said it would be just $100 to look at the car. We were only charged $50 for the whole job and the part.
When you are taking a road trip and you don't know the area, it is nice to know that there are good shops and people out there.
So as always I was completely skeptical about an auto repair shop. I think there always out to get me, and to top it of I was out of town so I figured I was doomed and I had no choice but due to being out of town and I needed my car looked at. My car was making a strange sound and it felt like power was giving. It turned out it was nothing more than the battery as it got replaced and I've had no issues. Now that's a simple fix so why a "5 star" because I was an out of towner and I felt I could have been taken advantage of and I wouldn't of had much choice. Still weary about auto repair shops but this was a pleasant expirience. I made it home without an issue and still no issues!!!!
After taking my jeep to a few different shops to fix an issue that kept coming up I found E&A. It took a little while to get the old girl back up and running but it was well worth it. I am a car guy and can fix almost anything on my jeep. But when I'm stumped either a quick stop in or a phone call is all it takes. I highly recommend E&A. Everybody has their opinion on what's the best. For me and my vehicles I won't stray. I felt the prices were fair and the work was done well. Nazier (owner) even started work as soon as my vehicle was off the tow truck. I didn't have to wait forever just to get it looked at. A true pleasure and great experience.
My car broke down when I was traveling with four kids in my car. Nazier (owner of E &A) was the only shop in town that would even look at it on Saturday late afternoon. Although they were quite busy and did not have the part my car needed in stock he was upfront, communicated honestly and had my car done by Monday morning. They actually finished it late Saturday night and are closed Sunday. I had a very positive experience with Nazier and E & A Auto Repair and highly recommend them.
On the phone associate was marveles. And refer to correct department. It's miracle this days to get pro help and pro.. Advise. Keep up good work James.
This is the only place I would go to service my cars! Ive been a long time customer here and just recently had my Audi in as it was due for the Normal Maintenance Service, as always they did an excellent job! This place is Clean , Friendly and always puts the customer first. I used to only go to the Dealer so Im very happy to have found an alternative where the cost is fair and yet they have all the parts and knowledge of what the dealer has-Honestly I would be afraid to go anywhere else!
I will definately be back and would highly recommend this shop , its nice to find a trustworthy place for my Audi!
I can't imagine why this place has bad reviews, I have had nothing but good experiences here. I have gone to E&A as my only mechanic for 7 years. They are more than fair, they do good work, plus they bring me home after I drop my car off for service. I have also recommended them to friends who have also had positive experiences.
My daughter moved to Portland from Tennessee to go to school with a VW with 80,000 miles on it. Her clutch went out and I looked on the Internet, called several people and decided on E and A. Nazir was great. He fixed the clutch as well as several other things that he found and was very reasonable with the prices. I visited my daughter recently and found that her car was sputtering. We took it to Nazir and he replaced a coil while we waited Nazir is the best auto repair mechanic I have ever used, and I have used a lot.
I had a great experience at E&A Auto Repair. I spoke with Nazier over the phone and he was honest in his price quote and explained how the process worked for my inspecting my oil leak and timing belt replacement for my 2003 Honda Civic. He gave me a great deal and even had someone drive me home, which was more than 5 miles away!
Great service! Plus, my car runs more smoothly now!

Italy: In this charming Tuscan villa, time stands still
Apart from technological upgrades, architect Pieratelli Architetture made minimum interventions to preserve the structural integrity of this 19th century farmhouse
By Nolan Lewis

Rustic charm blends with modern elements at this villa in Tuscany
In the heart of the Tuscan countryside in Italy, touted as one of the most romantic destinations in the world, is this old farmhouse recently acquired by a French family as a holiday home. "The original structure dates back to the first half of the 19th century but was converted into a residential building in the '70s," says Andrea Pierattelli from the design team at Pierattelli Architetture, a studio founded in Florence in the '80s by Massimo Pierattelli. The team has rehauled the dated building to make it a more contemporary space.
Pieratelli Architetture has done up the space in an eclectic manner
Tuscan Villa, Italy: A Modern Twist
"The clients wanted something to embody the spirit of Tuscany's countryside, with a modern touch to reflect their style and taste. A place that could perfectly contain all their objets d'art and souvenirs shipped from France," Pierattelli continues. So, while the architecture and rural style of the building has been preserved, the interiors have been reinterpreted by the design studio with a balanced mix of tradition and modernity, genius loci and ethnic ideas.
The spirit of countryside is evident in the 19th century villa
The external appearance of the former farmhouse, characterised by typical plaster facades and sloping pitched roof, has remained unchanged over time, from its construction in the first half of the 20th century until its conversion to a residential building in the '70s. "The aim was to maintain the original layout of the house, adding something personal and contemporary with full respect of the past and history of the place," Pieratelli notes.
Tuscan Villa, Italy: Custom-Made Furnishings
In doing up the interiors, it was decided to craft eclectic rooms, combining local materials with ethnic elements that are part of the family's memories, custom-made furnishings with design icons and marble busts. Alongside design pieces, such as the popular Lounge Chair by Charles & Ray Eames for Vitra, the Miss Ktable lamps by Philippe Stark for Flos, the 2097 pendant lamp by Gino Sarfatti for Flos and the Long Island sofa by Roche Bobois, there are custom-made furnishings made with local materials by local craftsmen for Pierattelli Architetture.
"The real design challenge was maintaining the main characters of the villa, that belong to Scarpa's architecture, updating and changing furniture and part of the interior layout in order to create a balanced dialogue between the old and new," adds Pieratelli.
Tuscan Villa, Italy: Rustic Charm
Colour schemes once again imitate the region's natural suggestions: Pietra serena—a recurring stone in Tuscan, and Florentine architecture—is used for floors, trims and decoration, while the terracotta flooring adds a rustic charm and warmth. The gaze soaks up Tuscan countryside through large, arched openings, a defining feature in Italian country homes.
Tuscan Villa, Italy: Valley Views
Immersed in greenery, the building boasts a large terracotta yard resting on a space originally used as a lemon house and now converted into a gym with an infinity pool from where one can enjoy a panoramic view of the valley.

Insurgency: Sandstorm FPS from New World Interactive will delay Linux and Mac support. Since this news is recently released news via the developers page. Which presents some distinct design changes and game modes.
"As far as platforms go, we've decided to delay Mac and Linux support for post-release. We're finding our time will be best spent on developing for Windows, Xbox One, and PS4. Our priority is to make those three platforms fully functional first, then expand after release.
Since this is not much of a surprise. It also means it's more common with Unreal Engine 4 games. Hence the case here. Which is true for games like EVERSPACE, which now has a Linux beta release. Also Ruiner, which will make a Linux debut, but it seems uncertain when. New World leave Linux out to focus on the main platforms. A disappointment but again, not a surprise.
So it's a pleasure to see further detail here about the game modes for Insurgency: Sandstorm. Despite some change in the approach to conflicts. Since this will create more of a real world feel. Also, something of a personal interest. Since other FPS games incorporate various aspects of this as well.
New World Interactive is obviously creating a more vivid approach to Insurgency: Sandstorm gameplay. Which seems to ring true, along side some of the earlier Battlefield campaigns.

Today I share information about a show opening on Friday at Town and Country. Kindly find the press release below by Jean Brenner. Thanks Jean!
Arthur Miller…Tennessee Williams…William Inge. These great American playwrights have written some rather spectacular dramas, plays that tell fascinating stories based on real people and real circumstances.
William Inge wrote well-known "Picnic," "Bus Stop," and "Come Back Little Sheba." in 1957, he also wrote "Dark At The Top of the Stairs," dedicating the play to Tennessee Williams whom he so admired.
Town & Country Players is presenting this drama June 14 through June 29 at their theatre on York Rd., Buckingham. It is not recommended for elementary age children.
Over the centuries, people of every generation have faced challenges. For the Flood family in the 1920's, as with families even today, their test was a shortage of income, an inability to keep pace with their friends and neighbors and being barely able to provide enough food for themselves.
Life is changing dramatically in this Oklahoma town, but not from tornadoes. The whirlwind rage for the recently invented automobile of the early century is reducing the need for horses and carriages so fewer people need harnesses. But harnesses are what Rubin Flood sells.
Rubin's income is drying up. He cannot provide for his family. He is angry and bewildered. He turns to drinking, trying to hide with buddies in the pool hall.
Meanwhile, his wife and two children are attempting to function normally, but the family is confused. His children feel inadequate. His worried wife, Cora, tries her best to be positive, to keep up the children's morale, but secretly, she suspects Rubin is cheating on her. They fight often and, as with any family, the children are immensely affected.
Experienced director Kate Fishman commented, "This sensitive story about a family beset by problems is being brought to life by a very talented case. Audiences will be telling others about this play for weeks!"
The cast is comprised of actors from Bucks and Montgomery Counties: Shelli Pentimalli Bookler (Cora Flood) of North Wales, and Nate Mann (Sammy) of Rydal, Montgomery County.
All other actors are from Bucks County: Larry Krevitz, (Rubin Flood) of Holland, Annalee Tomanelli, (Reenie Flood) and Colleen Smith (Flirt Conroy) are from Chalfont.
Both Nicholas Tumolo (Sonny Flood) and Sarah LeClair (Aunt Lottie) are from Warrington. Jim Wolfe (Morris Lacey) is from Jamison.
Backstage volunteers also come from all over the Bucks County to help to produce the plays at Town & Country Players. This particular production team includes people from Quakertown to Newtown.
Contrary to Miller and Williams plays which end sadly, DARK AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS offers rays of hope that the Flood family problems will be resolved.
Theatre companies know audiences tend to choose to see only happy plays. Town and Country is hoping enough people who appreciate good theater will want to experience this remarkable performance with five fine adult actors and four exceptional young people.
Tickets at $15 are available through http://www.brownpapertickets.org or by calling 1-800-838-3006 or at the box office before six performances on Fridays and Saturdays July 14, 15, 21, 22, 24, 25 at 8 PM and two Sundays, June 16 and 23, at 3 PM.

Nice! Poetic. 🙂


Back in October I speculated that the enterprise will have to support Windows 8 whether it wants to or not. If anything, the plain old consumerization of IT will force technology departments to integrate it into employee preferences with corporate solutions.
At the time, there wasn't a clear consensus on the what value Windows 8 would add to the enterprise and no one had yet seen the Microsoft Surface Pro, but now things are a lot different. Many of us have had at least a hands-on with the device, and many more have used Windows 8 on a day-to-day basis. Yet the debate continues about deploying Windows 8 in the enterprise. Why, nearly a year after its release, is there no clear consensus about the OS like there was about Windows 7, Vista, XP or ME?
The answer is the nature of Microsoft's flagship software and hardware. Faced with mobile, cloud, consumerization and BYOD, it has straddled the fence perfectly with Windows 8 and the Surface Pro, trying to simultaneously be an OS for tablet and desktop: an OS for consumers on one side and businesses on the other.
The confusion encroaches into the enterprise because desktop admins think about Windows 8 upgrades like we did with previous upgrades, i.e., it's all or nothing, only it's not. Windows 8 can coexist alongside Windows 7 desktops and ModernUI tablets, and that's s how it will be deployed throughout the enterprise.
Of course Windows 8 isn't a hit like Windows 7 or XP were, but it's also not a dud like Vista or Me. Like the hybrid OS itself, Windows 8 falls somewhere in the middle. And because it's not suitable globally, we may think that it shouldn't be deployed at all. But that would be a mistake. Just because the OS doesn't satisfy everyone's needs doesn't mean that there isn't a role for it.
So how can it be used? Not on the desktop of a standalone box. Windows 7 is fine for that. Instead, Windows 8 will fill emerging mobile needs that the iPad can't fill because the iPad doesn't fit into an enterprise strategy. Apple is a consumer-products maker first and an enterprise vendor second, whereas Microsoft has the enterprise built into its DNA. It's not that Apple ignores the enterprise, it's just the enterprise is an afterthought.
So there's room for Microsoft to wiggle its way in during the upgrade cycle. There are apps that won't run on the iOS 5.1.1. The original iPad is only three years old, whereas Windows is backward-compatible all the way to 16-bit apps written for Windows 3.1. There are apps written for my old iPhone with iOS 4.1 that can't run today. Not long ago I faced this challenge when deploying a dictation package to attorneys for their iPads. Without warning, the company that manufactured the software — iProRecorder — went out of business, taking it and our attorneys' dictations along with it.
We are dealing with several companies that have gotten into the implementation [of iPads], and after the first iOS upgrade it is a lot more difficult than they had expected. Now they are looking at replacing iPads with the Microsoft tablets.
At the law firm where I work, I've helped a handful of attorneys set up their Surface Pros to connect with the network. The desktop side uses a Citrix receiver to connect to the office, while the tablet side allows them to read and mark-up PDFs and take and upload digital notes in meetings.
It's still early, and Microsoft can double its market share and still hold under 5 percent, but Windows 8 — and Windows 9 after that — will ensure that Microsoft is included in the next conversations where IT discusses a product refresh.
Otherwise, I agree with this post.
Thanks Kinoy. I think we'll see more adoption after Windows Blue.
As an older IT worker, I try to make sure I don't develop bias against newer stuff just because I am getting set in my ways. On the other hand, I hate Windows 8. I use a desktop computer with two big screens, and Windows 8 is all about the metro/modern UI, and full screen for a single application. It just isn't designed for multitasking, which was the great productivity improver of the last two decades. I currently have ten different apps running, small and large, on my two large screens.
I just don't buy the work mode, and I don't think I am unique.
I would hate to touch a desktop screen every time I wanted to do something. I tried to make the iPad work with a keyboard, but to do any editing, I had to reach up touch,glide my finger to the right spot, get it wrong and try again. Combining the mouse with it makes it easier. I also live and die by Alt+Tab to switch apps. I use a lot of keystrokes to do my work.
Windows 8 is a bit of a shock with the Metro interface, but what's under the hood is incredible. I am getting rid of my tablet, and looking to purchase a new laptop with a touch screen. There is a desktop view. It is missing the Start button, but there is a charm that acts the same way — just a little relearning is needed. This is the wave of the future.
I just bought a new laptop and I thought about the touch screen. That screen eats more battery life and as I said above you can do a lot with keystrokes. Windows Key+C gets reveals the charm for example. No swiping necessary. I got an Asus Aspire, stripped it of Win 7 home and installed Windows 8, updated the drivers and get about 5 hours out of it. Other than an overly aggressive mouse it's not a bad purchase.

The Achievery, Created by AT&T
June 7, 2022 By Katie Bayerl Leave a Comment
Connecting students to a new world of digital learning
AT&T launched a free digital learning platform that aims to make online learning more entertaining, inspiring, and accessible. The Achievery, created by AT&T, is a growing online library of learning activities for students in grades K-12 to use wherever they are – at home, in the community, or in the classroom. Lesson plans are paired with engaging videos featuring popular Warner Bros. Discovery characters (think: Wonder Woman, Craig of the Creek) to help connect students to a new world of digital learning through stories that spark curiosity.
AT&T developed The Achievery as part of a $2 billion, three-year Connected Learning Initiative created in 2021, to help bridge the digital divide in underserved communities through investments in broadband access, low-cost internet service, computers, and education and mentoring resources. The Achievery supports this initiative by providing access to high-quality online learning content at no cost.
Making online learning accessible… and fun
The Achievery was developed with feedback from parents and educators who suggested that lessons featuring popular entertainment media would be a great way to keep students engaged in digital learning, which most believe is here to stay. AT&T collaborated with Warner Bros. Discovery to feature clips from films, TV shows and animated series and then worked with leading education groups to develop activities that spark a sense of fun while helping students advance in important academic and social-emotional skills. (Every activity is linked to specific Common Core and CASEL standards.)
Families can use The Achievery to support distance learning, as a homework supplement, or as enrichment to keep kids' minds active during school vacation and prevent summer learning loss. Activities are searchable by grade level, academic subject, and specific standards to help children and adults find the content that meets their interests and needs.
Learning Made Lively
Sample Activities from The Achievery

Parents take The Achievery for a test drive
To provide early feedback on the platform in action, National PTA recruited a diverse set of more than 250 parents to preview several learning modules from The Achievery with their kids. Parents then provided robust feedback through surveys and focus groups. The goal: Help AT&T understand how The Achievery's content and site design can meet families' at-home learning needs.
Overall impressions of the platform were positive. Most notably, parents expressed appreciation of the quality content, and that their children were captivated by the familiar characters. Parents said they were happy to see young, diverse, and relatable people featured in many videos as well—individuals who their children didn't see as a traditional "teacher."
AT&T Assistant VP of Corporate Social Responsibility Mylayna Albright says, "We're grateful for our collaboration with National PTA and for their help gathering this comprehensive parent feedback. The Achievery is designed to provide quality educational content everywhere children learn, and we're eager to make the platform an engaging, easy-to-use resource that families can count on to support their children's advancement and love of learning."
The Achievery is live!
PTA's cohort of "early adopter" families showed a lot of enthusiasm and engagement in exploring The Achievery. Now, it's your turn! We invite you to set up a free account and try out some activities with your kids.

What Parents are saying about The Achievery
Toia Elliott, Indianapolis, Indiana
Toia Elliott tested The Achievery with her youngest child, a sixth-grader who she describes as a unique learner. "She likes to think of things on her own," Toia says. Her daughter was especially drawn to the Scratch coding lesson which allowed her to unleash her creativity. In fact, she enjoyed the lesson so much that she's continued using Scratch on her own.
Toia sees The Achievery as an especially helpful tool for "breakaway time" in the evening when her kids are ready to take their minds off of school.
"It doesn't feel like you're in school. You're having fun, and you're doing some entertaining activities. But she's also clearly learning something, which is great."
Michelle Grenell, Muskegon, Michigan
Michelle Grenell is homeschooling her two children who have special health needs. Before the pandemic, they'd tried using standardized homeschool curricula, but she says, "My kids weren't thriving. I was stressed out. We weren't learning anything." Now, she aims to keep a variety of activities on hand so she can be flexible with her children, whose needs vary daily. So far, The Achievery has been a great fit. After a successful preview of the poetry hunt and another module on storytelling, they've begun using The Achievery as a part of their at-home learning diet.
What Michelle appreciates most about The Achievery is that it doesn't feel like "school," so her kids are happy to engage on days when learning feels like a struggle or she can't supervise them as closely.
"So many times parents think: I'm not the best teacher right now, I'm not the best mom—especially post-pandemic—and you feel a little bit better [with a platform like The Achievery]… I felt like I was okay to have a migraine that day. Because they were still learning something."
Nicole Alexander, West Linn, Oregon
Nicole Alexander's seventh-grade daughter is very creative but remote learning during the pandemic was a big challenge. Now, that she's back at school, things have improved, but her mother is still eager to find activities to make summers and evening screen time more productive. The combination of watching the video and physically holding a book, pencil and paper really worked.
Nicole is eager to start matching lessons from The Achievery with specific learning standards where her daughter needs support. She sees The Achievery as a way to bridge the gap between home and school.
"There's a lot of catch up [when they bring home a school assignment], trying to figure out, are you helping your child in the right way? This would be far easier… You could just send them to The Achievery, look for the standard they were working on in class and find a related lesson."
