The Syrian opposition welcomed U.S. strikes against a Syrian government airbase on Friday and called for more after two American warships fired dozens of missiles at the airfield in a sharp escalation of the U.S. military role in Syria.

The Syrian opposition has long been critical of U.S. policy towards the Syrian conflict, saying former President Barack Obama's administration had failed to give enough support to rebels fighting the better-armed Syrian army and its allies.
"We hope for the continuation of the strikes in order to prevent the regime from using its planes to launch any new air raids or going back to using internationally banned weapons," said Ahmad Ramadan, head of the media office of the Syrian National Coalition political opposition group.
Hasan Haj Ali, commander of the Free Idlib Army rebel group, which fights under the Free Syrian Army (FSA) umbrella, told Reuters the strikes came at a "very important phase" and showed Syrians that "there is still humanity in this world".
While Ali said he did not expect more strikes, "we can say that the time has become very appropriate for Bashar al-Assad and the criminals with him to go to the dustbins of history".
Nasr al-Hariri, chief negotiator of the High Negotiations Committee (HNC), said on Twitter that the strikes "in case they continue, would kick off a correct start in combatting terrorism".

The Saudi-based HNC, the main opposition body which includes political and armed groups, has participated in U.N.-sponsored peace talks in Geneva.
U.S. President Donald Trump said he had ordered missile strikes against the airfield from which a deadly chemical attack was launched, declaring he acted in America's "national security interest" against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. The strikes drew sharp criticism from Russia, Assad's ally .
U.S. officials said the military fired dozens of cruise missiles against the base in response to the suspected gas attack in a rebel-held area this week, which Washington has blamed on Assad's forces. The Syrian government has strongly denied responsibility and says it does not use chemical weapons.
"The airbase targeted by the U.S. strike was used to kill Syrians," Ramadan said. The U.S. attack "sends a clear message to the regime and its backers" that they can no longer avoid repercussions, Ramadan said.
The governor of Homs province said earlier that the airbase was used to support Syrian army operations against Islamic State .

Neumayer, H.H. and Luft, F.C.
Between 1966 and 1991 a total of 1000 renal transplants were performed in Erlangen-Nuremberg. Patients were operated upon in Erlangen and transferred immediately 25 km to Nuremberg for their postoperative and immunosuppressive care. Despite these considerable logistical obstacles, the 10-year graft survival rate in 785 consecutive transplants performed between 1980 and 1990 was 44%, while patient survival was 84%. Mismatch at the HLA-DR locus, preformed antibodies, multiple transplants, and kidneys from donors aged 10 years or younger or over 60 years were risk factors for decreased graft survival. An immunosuppressive regimen of cyclosporine and methylprednisolone resulted in better graft survival than did azathioprine and methylprednisolone, or reduced-dose cyclosporine, azathioprine, and methylprednisolone. The cyclosporine and methylprednisolone regimen had a better patient survival than azathioprine and methylprednisolone. A hazard analysis demonstrated a particular risk of late rejection between the 70th and 90th months, after transplantation. Our data indicate that favorable transplant results can be obtained despite major logistical disadvantages. Very close cooperation between referring centers, transplant surgeons, and nephrologists is indispensable for success.

How the West was Undone
AMC's new series Hell on Wheels, a western about the making of the transcontinental railroad, began Sunday night. But it's unlikely to be a celebration of Manifest Destiny, a concept the filmmakers and cast apparently view with horror. Check out this oddly downbeat promo video, in which they fall all over themselves condemning the railroad for bringing civilization westward:
The series is an "anti-western," according to its executive producer, Joe Gayton. "Hell on Wheels is dragging the urban blight in the industry of the East across the West, and changing it forever. It's kind of the beginning of the end of the West as they knew it." Another executive producer, David von Ancken, indicates the landscape behind him and describes the show as "the battle of man, scarring nature, versus this, the beauty of nature." It's "the story of the train cutting through nineteenth-century America and bringing 'civilization.'" He actually gestures the air quotes around "civilization," to make sure you know he takes the politically correct and fashionably ironic view of the concept.

Hidden Brilliance of Minor Scales in Western Classical Music
Navya C
Western Classical Music is well-equipped with so many scales and versatility of the notes. However, the broader classification of the scales boils down to major and minor scales. With the presence of natural notes, and ease of hearing, major scale compositions are widely appreciated by the musical connoisseurs along with normal listeners.
Major scale is also signified towards a cheerful and a happy emotion and termed as brighter scales for the listening and even performing. On the contrary, minor scales are attributed to dark feelings, deep emotions and some extent of inquisitiveness. The minor scales are often used for compositions that show up estrangement, anger or any of that sort of deeper aspects.
As a result, the minor scale compositions including the ones from older era are somehow looked less often with admiration compared to the major scale compositions.
But the beauty of minor scales is that- the notes evoke a deeper and multi layered emotion compared to the major scale compositions. Take the famous composition Ave Verum Corpus by Mozart. Though the composition starts in major scale with a kickoff, the real beauty comes in when the minor scale portion comes in. Many composers use this beautiful trick to take the listeners through a multitude of emotions by bringing in the best of the both worlds.
However, the pure minor scale classics such as the famous Unfinished Symphony no.7 by Franz Schubert is an ultimate masterpiece and a text book composition for all those who would want to understand the brilliance of minor scales. Interestingly, much of film soundtrack composing and mainstream pop music is also realizing the hidden aspects of minor scales and the tremendous scope of it to be explored in western classical music.
When complete minor scales are one aspect to be addressed, there are ample combinations of them that are too good to be true. The pentatonic minor blues scale has become the backbone for genres such as Jazz and Blues. This one golden scale has given us some mesmerizing compositions to cherish- without realizing they are based on pure minor notes. Yesteryear legends such as Frank Sinatra, to the King of Pop Michael Jackson and even the recent sensation Ed Sheeran have discovered the beauty of minor scale songs.
One such immediate Jazz number which we can never forget is 'Fly Me to the Moon' based on the pentatonic minor scale. The song is a great example of how a minor scale can be greatly used in a romantic perspective – and has a tinge of bubbliness to it. It disputes the popular belief that minor scales are more suitable for melancholic compositions.
The recent magical number of Disney's Alladdin – Speechless is also a classy minor scale composition. Though it has an element of pain in it, the song speaks of aggression, resilience and lot of hope and positivity for a brighter days ahead.
So, take some time out for these lovely compositions in minor scales and go on a never before taken path- off the beaten track!

High-speed rail is
too far along to stop
Ending the process of building California's bullet train wouldn't be the best idea.
This is because 1) voters were promised a transportation system from Southern California to San Francisco and Sacramento, and 2), construction is already in progress, with billions of dollars already put into the system. Completely scrapping the project would just upset the voters, and with all the money that has been spent, it would be a complete waste of money, building material and labor.
Instead of completely scrapping the project, California could look into countries where bullet trains have been developed and start talking to contractors there. Bringing in contractors that have experience with the bullet train might be the best option to get the project done quicker and more efficiently.

Justice for immigrant
families can't be bought
Re. "Immigrant payouts bad idea for nation," Page A8, Nov. 5:
A human being is neither an alien or illegal. The only illegality committed was the policy set in motion during Trump's administration of forcibly separating 5,500 children from their parents at the U.S./Mexico border in order to "punish immigrants."
Whether it's "a dime" or $450,000, nothing can compensate these families for what will surely be their children's lifelong effects from the PTSD caused by their separation.
These are people who are fleeing persecution, brutality and imminent death from their country of origin. How fortunate for you and me that we've never had to experience such horrors.
Since you don't wish to embrace the stranger, at least try walking in their shoes. Joan Baez's salient lyrics remind us, "There but for fortune go you or I."

Family's mix-up proof
officials doing their jobs
Re. "Mixed-race family flying from San Jose stopped," Page B11, Nov. 5:
This article cited a mother and her mixed-race daughter being stopped by an airline representative and the police because of human-trafficking suspicions. This upsetting incident could certainly have been put in an entirely different light for the daughter, who, according to her mother, is "sad and annoyed" and going to "need therapy."
If the mother had handled the incident as "Thank god that people are paying attention to their training," instead of playing the victim, her daughter could be feeling safer and better protected because there are responsible people who care enough to act.
Human trafficking is a real problem, and mom and daughter could have had a conversation about the reality of it and could have been grateful that this was not their case, but had it been, the outcome of keeping her daughter safe would have been celebrated.
Meredith McCay
Defense of Atlanta team
name, chop must stop
It is outrageous when Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred claims that changing the nickname of the Atlanta baseball team and fans performing the "tomahawk chop" is a local issue.
It shows that Manfred is indifferent toward American Indians because he does not realize how harmful both the nickname and the chop are to them. It made them less than human.
I urge Commissioner Manfred to stop defending both the nickname and the chop.
Billy Trice Jr.
CRT distortions meant
to quiet people of color
A few days ago, I was reading an article about some schools trying to ban "Critical Race Theory" and I realized that a lot of people are misinformed on what CRT actually is.
This is due to the bias of media companies. For example, Fox News put out articles that highlight how CRT is "infiltrating" our K-12 schools. CRT is a theory of law that states that race is a social construct and that the legal systems in the United States hold down non-White people. This theory is not being introduced into K-12 schools. Too many bills are being passed banning something that is not even happening.
This takes away attention from important issues, and it dilutes what CRT really is. People will dismiss CRT as a crazy theory that teaches hate, rather than a legal analysis of the U.S. legal system. We should be listening to the voices of people of color, not dismissing them.

Left was quiet when
Trump was insulted
I am truly amused by the outrage of the left over the phrase "Let's go, Brandon."
If liberals are so offended by this simple phrase, what would they do if someone showed a picture of a severed head of President Biden? Or if, for example, a celebrity on a national award show actually used the expletive to insult our president?
Past insults do not justify current insults. However, if you're guilty of prior insults, you have no moral justification for outrage for the current.

Retrial begins in 2006 Danbury murder
By John Pirro, Staff Writer
Published 10:46 pm EDT, Thursday, October 29, 2009
DANBURY--Julio Morquecho is the man accused in the 2006 stabbing death of 22-year-old Maria Chulca, but his lawyer wasted little time in suggesting another person committed the crime when a Superior Court jury began hearing evidence at Morquecho`s trial for murder Thursday.
Public Defender Jeffrey Hutcoe didn`t directly accuse Abel Quinde of killing her. Quinde is the man Chulca started seeing after she left Morquecho. But the defense attorney`s cross-examination of the slain woman`s brother left little doubt he was trying to plant the idea with the six-man, six woman jury.
"Was Abel Quinde willing to give a statement to the police department?" "Do you know why he refuses to be present at this trial?" and "Did you know him when he was drinking?" were just a few of the questions Hutcoe hurled at Jose Chulca, the first witness called by Supervisory State`s Attorney Warren Murray as Morquecho`s retrial got under way.
Another jury deadlocked 7-5 in favor of acquittal earlier this year, and Hutcoe needs only one member of the current panel to vote against conviction to guarantee a second mistrial.
Chulca, a native of Ecuador who worked at McDonald`s in Southbury, was found in a pool of blood outside the Rose Street apartment building where she lived with her two young children and her two older brothers on April 20, 2006, a day before her 23rd birthday.
She was killed as she returned home from working a night shift at the fast-food restaurant.
Suspicion quickly focused on Morquecho, who was the father of her two children and who Chulca left almost 11 months before she was killed because he abused her, Jose Chulca told the jury.
Only a week before Chulca was killed, Morquecho was released from jail, where he`d been incarcerated for violating the protective order she`d obtained against him.
And only a few days before her death, Jose Chulca said, Morquecho visited the Rose Street apartment while Maria was at work and told the brothers that his cell mate had suggested she would be better off dead than with another man.
"He said he knew how to kill someone quickly. The way was to approach them from behind and slit their throat. They would have no time to react," Chulca testified through an interpreter.
Judge Richard Marano allowed the jury to hear that Morquecho had been in jail, but not the charge for which he`d served time.
The prosecution will also be allowed introduce testimony about other threats Morquecho allegedly made against Maria Chulca and Quinde, but it can`t tell the jurors he is serving a five-year prison sentence for stalking Chulca.
Jose Chulca described his sister as a hard-working woman who had many friends and no enemies. The only person she feared was Morquecho, he said.
But Hutcoe, who also defended Morquecho at his first trial, raised questions about how well the witness knew his sister.
Jose Chulca said he didn`t know his sister was expecting a large insurance settlement from an automobile accident. He also admitted he`d never seen Morquecho physically abuse her.
Court was adjourned for the day as Danbury police Sgt. Michael Georgoulis was testifying about finding Chulca`s body after responding to an early-morning call about a woman who`d been found stabbed on Rose Street.
He`ll be back on the stand when the trial resumes at 10 a.m. Friday.
Attorneys said they expect the trial to last about a week.

Gyedu Blay AMBOLLEY The Message vinyl at Juno Records.
Analog Africa's superb Limited Dance Edition series reaches volume nine via a fine collection of cuts from Ghanian bandleader Gyedu-Blay Ambolley, who spent the early 1980s fusing highlife and funk sounds with spacey electronics, wild synth lines and righteous vocals. It's all fire, of course, though the Highlife-funk flex of opener "The Message" and deliciously summery, jazz guitar-laden Afro-Caribbean workout "Simigwa Soca" are probably our pick of the bunch. Elsewhere, "Akoko Ba" is a driving, solo-laden workout rich in dueling horns and highlife guitars, while "Burkina Faso" is a sublime experiment in P-funk, Ghanaian style. In a word: essential.

The Costa Mesa City Council voted early Wednesday to add a turnaround space at Fairview Park as a potential compromise to a proposed parking lot, which had been opposed by residents.
But a vocal group of people attending the nearly seven-hour council session weren't happy with that decision either, contending that the city should be hands-off and keep the park natural.
The 3-2 decision — with Councilwomen Sandy Genis and Wendy Leece dissenting — overrode the Parks and Recreation Commission's design approval for a 10-space lot within the park's southwestern quadrant.
Mayor Jim Righeimer suggested the motion, which also keeps a proposed playground area next to the turnaround space at the end of Pacific Avenue. The matter was brought to the council after Genis filed an appeal of the commission's Aug. 22 approval of the lot.
Righeimer tested the idea of a turnaround without any parking during a Meet the Mayor session last week at a residence on Pacific Avenue. Many of those in attendance seemed to like the idea, though others expressed disapproval following the gathering.
Righeimer also asked staff to come up with a "proper looking" park entrance for the end of Pacific Avenue, a residential street of single-family homes, condominiums and apartments.
The park's master plan calls for a 10-space parking lot at the end of Pacific Avenue, as well as the playground. The plan was approved in the mid-1990s and modified through the early 2000s. A majority of the parks commissioners cited the conformance with the master plan, which was publicly vetted and debated, in their approval of the parking lot.
The lot was originally designed to have 42 spaces, but that was changed after city officials realized the master plan called for only 10.
The turnaround would be available to the Fire Department in an emergency, though interim Fire Chief Fred Seguin said Pacific Avenue is more of a secondary entrance to the park for firefighters, who are more likely to enter from nearby Canyon Drive.
People attending Wednesday's council meeting, including some who live along Pacific Avenue, universally opposed all the plans, even the mayor's compromise.
"The voice of the community has been overwhelming to keep the park natural," said Anna Vrska, a member of the Fairview Park Citizens Advisory Committee. "I would urge that you respect that."
Leece noted that "nobody came tonight who is demanding that we have a tot lot and a turnaround." She called the land "the last piece of rural area in Costa Mesa."
Genis said a turnaround might be OK, though she said there's probably a better space for a playground in the 208-acre park.
Sylvere Valentin, an archaeologist from Long Beach, said the project would harm the area's rich Native American significance. He alluded to the Fairview Indian Site, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Public Services Director Ernesto Munoz said the city is not aware of any archaeological sites in that area of Fairview Park and added that an archaeologist would be present during the construction process.
Kim Hendricks, who was part of a group that started a petition against the lot, said she talked with more than 1,000 people citywide who opposed it.
"I've always informed them who they should vote for in the next election," Hendricks said. "The citizens do feel you guys aren't being upfront with us. ... I think we need to take some science classes if we don't appreciate biodiversity and the importance of it in our ecosystem."
Costa Mesa native Kevin Nelson, who now lives in San Clemente, called Fairview Park "a miracle" that enhances visitors' mental health.
The citizens advisory committee will look to see where 10 spaces can be added elsewhere in the park, Munoz said.
The council is not scheduled to review the matter again until it's time to approve construction contracts. The turnaround will replace a guard rail and basic signage at the end of Pacific Avenue.

The Hawkeyes made a significant addition to their special teams unit on Friday.
Michael Sleep-Dalton, a graduate transfer punter out of Arizona State, announced he was committing to Iowa via Twitter. The Australian native is receiving a scholarship.
A 2016 junior college recruit, Sleep-Dalton punted for City College of San Francisco before committing to the Sun Devils as the country's No. 1 juco punter, according to the 247Sports Composite.
After redshirting his first year, Sleep-Dalton started the past two seasons at ASU. He averaged 39.9 yards per punt as a redshirt sophomore with nine punts of 50 yards or more, and he averaged 43.8 yards per punt last year with 10 punts of 50-plus yards.
Sleep-Dalton will compete against current starter Colten Rastetter and Ryan Gersonde for the Hawkeyes' punting duties.

Colorado congressman says he was trapped in House chambers as rioters tried to break doors
Jacy Marmaduke
Fort Collins Coloradoan
U.S. Rep. Jason Crow, D-Colo., said he was briefly trapped in the House of Representatives chambers as rioters tried to break through the doors amid unrest at the U.S Capitol on Wednesday.
Also trapped in the chambers with Crow were three other members of Colorado's Congressional delegation, the Colorado Sun reported: Rep. Joe Neguse of Colorado's 2nd District, Rep. Ken Buck of eastern Colorado's 4th District, and Rep. Lauren Boebert of western Colorado's 3rd District.
"I thought we'd have to fight our way out," Crow, an Army veteran, told the New York Times, adding that he helped fellow lawmakers put on gas masks as he moved them away from the barricaded door and instructed them to take off the lapel pins that identify House members.
He told the Times he had only a pen to defend himself with. The group was trapped inside the chambers for about 15 minutes until Capitol Police cleared a path for them to exit the room., according to the Times.
Police led the lawmakers out with their guns drawn, Crow told the Times. Some officers barricaded the doors and others "pinned protesters to the ground," according to the Times, as the lawmakers moved to a secure area.
On Twitter, Crow called the situation a "coup attempt" and vowed to return to the House chambers to finish the job they'd started before a mob of rioters breached the Capitol building Wednesday afternoon.
Crow, who said he's now being protected in a secure location, was one of several members of Colorado's congressional delegation who shared updates on their safety and spoke out about the unfolding situation in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday afternoon. The pro-Trump mob tore past law enforcement, halting Congressional proceedings to certify the presidential election results.
Buck, a Republican who recently spoke out against President Donald Trump's efforts to contest the election results, called the events at the Capitol "anarchy." He told Savannah Guthrie on NBC that he was safe and hunkered down with some staff members in an office.
"We're anxious and happy to see the TV so we can see what's going on at the Capitol," he said.
He was on the House floor getting ready to speak when a plain clothes officer from Capitol Police came in and escorted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi from her chair.
"I hope the rioters understand there will be consequences for what they've done," Buck said.
When asked if he was angry, he said, "I'm absolutely angry. This isn't the way this country operates. It's a disgrace and for anyone to tolerate anybody to come in and try to shut down our government is absolutely disgraceful."
In a joint statement with Buck, Colorado Gov. Jared Polis said "an assault on our democratic republic is an assault on all of us who believe in our constitution and what makes our country extraordinary."
"The alarming scenes that are unfolding in Washington are something you might expect to see in countries far from our shores, not in our nation's capitol, and certainly not in the hallowed halls or on the floor of Congress," the statement continued. "We are relieved that Colorado's federal delegation is safe. We all must step up to protect the institutions of our republic, free and fair elections, and the rule of law."
Live coverage:Pro-Trump rioters breach Capitol, forcing lockdown
Sen. Michael Bennet also posted on Twitter that he and his staff were safe in a secure location. He wrote "today's attack on the Capitol and our democracy is dangerous and unacceptable."
"We need to finish the job of certification as soon as possible to show the world that our democracy is up to this test," he added in a follow-up tweet. "Our democracy is up to this test."
U.S. Rep. Joe Neguse, a Democrat who represents Fort Collins in the 2nd Congressional District, tweeted that he and his staff were evacuated from the House floor and in a safe location.
"Thank you to all of our brave law enforcement officials for working so hard to protect the Capitol Complex," Neguse wrote. "Keep the faith."
Sen. John Hickenlooper is also safe. He said on Twitter that this is "a sad day for our country, but our democracy is stronger than the dangerous attack on the Capitol today."
U.S. Reps. Doug Lamborn and Lauren Boebert were the two members of Colorado's congressional delegation who said they planned to object to House certification of the election results. Boebert spoke against accepting Arizona's election results on the House floor before rioters made their way into the building.
"I strongly condemn those individuals that have chosen to incite violence and have put our law enforcement in harm's way," Lamborn wrote on Twitter. "Today is supposed to be a day of constitutional debate, not violence. This is not who we are as Americans."
Boebert tweeted later Wednesday afternoon that she and her staff were safe.
"I support peaceful protests and the rule of law, and denounce all acts of violence," she wrote. "I am grateful to the Capitol Police for their service. Thank you for keeping us safe."
Colorado Rep. Diana DeGette shared a photo of herself walking through the Capitol building carrying a gas mask. In a since deleted tweet, she called for President Donald Trump's impeachment.
"This isn't a protest. This is an attempted coup. I never thought we'd see such anarchy spurred by our own president," DeGette posted on Twitter.
She said lawmakers would return to the floor "as soon as possible to finish certifying the results of the electoral college and declaring Joe Biden and Kamala Harris the next president and vice president of the United States."
Colorado Democratic Party Chair Morgan Carroll released a statement condemning "the attempted coup and lawless behavior displayed at the U.S. Capitol, carried out by domestic terrorists in the name of Donald Trump."
"This is the consequence of elected officials and political candidates entertaining harmful disinformation and unfounded conspiracy theories and spreading them to their followers," Carroll continued.

I'm looking for the rather elusive flat nosed bus to turn into a mini home for my 2 year visa in Canada.
All I seem to be finding is the type with the long bonnet which really eats up the length of the internal space.
Does anyone know of one about or have one that they need shifting?
I'm located on the west coast but would travel if the right bus becomes available.
I just starting working on my small Thomas RE and its great. Since I just started there isn't a sentimental attachment so I could sell it for the right price but keep in mind it in Los Angeles.
Plenty of those transit styles. Bluebird TC2000 will be the cheapest option, Thomas MVP and Bluebird All American will go for higher. All the normal caveats about engine and transmission selection apply.

A Two City Study of Air Quality in Vietnam
/documents/20142/1594798/two-women-in-masks.jpg/a55c2333-606b-cc96-f11e-c556ea4bd2b0?t=1587981055696
The World Health Organisation describes poor air quality as the largest single environmental health risk and attributes eight million deaths annually to the consequences of exposure to air pollution. In recent times Vietnam has undergone rapid urbanisation, industrialisation and population growth and, as a result, has become one of the most polluted countries in the world. Despite this, air quality monitoring in Vietnam is patchy, and many of the previously reported studies are now quite dated. Given the rapid economic development and the growth of cities such as Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, there is a pressing need for new, up-to-date air quality measurements and a reassessment of the major sources of the observed pollution.
Objectives and activities:
In this study, measurements are being taken of a range of air quality indicators in the two largest cities in Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi) in order to improve our understanding of the concentrations and sources of air pollution in these contrasting environments. A range of analytical equipment is being taken to Vietnam, to complement the existing measurements made by the Vietnam partners. These instruments will vastly improve the quantity and range of measurements currently available, providing us with significantly enhanced datasets of both gas phase and particulate pollution.
Research for Sustainable Development
Global Challenges Research Fund
Newton Fund
Quality-related GCRF
The resultant air pollution database will be the largest and most comprehensive in Vietnam to date, and will serve as a valuable resource. Our work will inform government and non-governmental stakeholders about the current state of air quality in the two largest cities in Vietnam, together with an assessment of the major sources (processes and regions) of the pollutants observed. We anticipate that the data will be used to help devise evidence-based mitigation strategies that will eventually lead to an improvement in air quality and, consequently, to a decline in the poor health outcomes linked to air pollution.
The project supports international collaboration between partners in UK (UEA, University of York, Cranfield University and University of Manchester) and Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City University of Sciences and Vietnam National University, Hanoi), and is building capacity through exchanges of knowledge - UEA hosted two Vietnamese scientists for two months and UK scientists are undertaking fieldwork in Vietnam.
SDG/target addressed:
SDG 3.9: By 2030, substantially reduce the numbers of deaths and illnesses from hazardous chemicals and air, water and soil pollution and contamination.

The handwritten lyrics for Sir Elton John's Your Song are to go under the hammer in New York.
Auctioneer Bonhams estimate the lyrics by Bernie Taupin will make "in the six-figure range" at the sale on November 19 in Manhattan.
After getting the verses, it took Sir Elton just 10 minutes to come up with the melody. Its 1970 release helped launch the pair into stardom.

Tonight the Community Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee will approve plans to agree, in principle, to running a Formula E race in Battersea Park starting the process of formal approval at full council and planning consent next year.
It's a process I've been watching for a while. Indeed, when I first heard of it over a year ago I was a supporter of exploring the idea. Wiser colleagues were not, sensing the disruption and risk to the park was too much; but I felt the initial offer seemed suspiciously 'round' (if I recall the Formula E proposal was £250,000 with four weeks of setting up and dismantling). Perhaps, I conjectured, if pushed they may offer more or be able to get in and out more quickly and if that was the case, we might get a stage at which both we and the Friends of Battersea Park think the benefits outweigh the inconvenience.
I've obviously not been a witness to the developments since May but it would seem there has been movement, I don't know if it's more cash, less set-up time or a combination of both, but we're now on the brink of giving the go-ahead to Formula E.
But in that time my opinions have changed too.
I don't know whether I'm a heavy user of the park. I am in and out of there a lot. Almost all my running incorporates Battersea Park in some way, I take the kids to the playground, they go to a sports club there, we are semi-regular attenders of the Pump House's Sunday Socials, but while I may average more than a visit a day, I am sure there are those for whom the park is an integral part of their life, just as there are some for whom it is an irregular oasis of calm in an inner city.
But more and more I've become concerned that an event like this is a dangerous erosion of what makes the park special.
I know there is a need to raise revenue. And I know the park already does that. But it does it well, the park can almost hide events. You might have visited the park the other week and spent a day there without knowing a cinema screen was going up. You need never visit or use any of the concessions or pay to enter the zoo or use the Millennium Arena and sports facilities. There can be exhibitions or big parties taking place at the British Genius site, but other park users may never know.
Formula E strikes me as different. It's hard to see how it can take place without total closure of the park to the ordinary public during a key period of (hopefully) good weather in June. It's hard to see how you can set-up and take down all the facilities of a race track without a lengthy period of disruption. And while the council is proud that a 5am test run didn't create any complaints I suspect the real disruption would be the 40,000 visitors, then the comings and going of crew, TV, support, and everything else associated with a race. That is before you consider the risk to the park's environment and heritage.
So having been one of those who said we should look at it I now find myself thinking we shouldn't look at it. But seem to be in a minority. The news has been out for a while, Battersea Park being touted as the preferred track for at least a year in various places (indeed, Googling it recently I discovered that they'd even said the council were keeping it secret until the elections, which shows how much it wasn't being kept secret) but watching reaction it seems lots of people are keen. Even the Friends of Battersea Park seem to be, at least, neutral to the prospect.
I have, perhaps, lost sight of the bigger picture. Perhaps if Formula E offered me loads of cash to invest in Lavender Hill so they could race on it I'd be much keener (and, practically speaking, can see how roads would be much more suited than a park). But I can't help coming back to the feeling that Battersea Park is something special. It's part of what make Battersea such a wonderful part of London.
Perhaps everything does have a price. But if it does, you need to be absolutely sure you know what that price is, because once it's been sold once, it simply becomes a bit of rental land. When that happens a lot of what makes it so very special will be lost forever; I can't imagine a price tag worth that.

Personally, I believe this is the way it should be. Yes, in an emergency such as this, the government should be somewhat involved, but only minimally. Private donations, and help is the way to go. The Federal government just needs to stay out of things and let people learn to be responsible for themselves.

White House finally unveils plans for Trump's 4th of July event on National Mall
Trump's event, called 'Salute to America,' will include music, military demonstrations and flyovers.
Author: Associated Press, WUSA Staff
Published: 12:35 PM EDT June 19, 2019
WASHINGTON -- President Donald Trump's Fourth of July address to the nation will honor America's armed forces.
Federal lawmakers, local officials and others have expressed concern that Trump could mar what traditionally is a nonpartisan celebration of the nation's founding by delivering an overtly political speech. But Interior Secretary David Bernhardt announced Wednesday that Trump will use his remarks to honor the five branches of the U.S. military.
RELATED: VERIFY: Is DC's annual 4th of July fireworks show moving to a new location?
Bernhardt also announced that the World War II Memorial and areas around the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool will be open to the public for the first time in recent memory for viewing the annual fireworks display, which is being moved closer to the Lincoln Memorial from the Washington Monument.
Trump's event, called "Salute to America," will include music, military demonstrations and flyovers.
"There is no more appropriate place to celebrate the anniversary of American independence than among the Nation's monuments on the National Mall and the memorials to the service men and women who have defended the United States for the past 243 years," said Bernhardt in a release. "For the first time in many years, the World War II Memorial and areas around the Reflecting Pool will be open for the public to enjoy a stunning fireworks display and an address by our Commander-in-Chief."
Officials said they expect to have more details on security and road closures for the event before the end of June.
The following is a list of scheduled events, with italics for the government's description:
National Independence Day Parade -- 11:45 a.m. - 2 p.m., Constitution Avenue NW from 7th Street NW to 17th Street NW
"Marching bands, fife and drum corps, floats, military units, giant balloons, equestrian, drill teams and more celebrate Independence Day in this patriotic, flag-waving, red, white and blue celebration of America's birthday!"
Salute to America -- 6:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m., Lincoln Memorial
President Trump leads a celebration of America's military with music, military demonstrations and flyovers. Gates open at 3:30 p.m.
A Capitol Fourth -- 8 p.m. - 9:30 p.m., West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol
Co-sponsored by the National Park Service and the National Symphony Orchestra, A Capital Fourth honors our nation's 243rd birthday with an all-star salute of the best in American entertainment. Gates open at 3 p.m.
Fireworks Display -- 9:07 p.m.
Independence Day culminates with a spectacular fireworks display over the National Mall. The fireworks will be launched from West Potomac Park and behind the Lincoln Memorial. They will be visible from locations throughout D.C. and Northern Virginia.

The automotive industry is a leader in all things digital marketing. New technologies? Auto OEMs pilot them. New attribution models? Dealerships test them.
And with all this volume and experimentation within the industry comes well-supported statistics and hypotheses about how customers use the internet to research, browse, and purchase cars. From this depth of knowledge, luxury and non-luxury brands see a very obvious difference in market share. Luxury shoppers and non-luxury shoppers have very distinct paths to purchase. They care about different vehicle features, have different lifestyles or interests, and therefore take to the internet seeking answers in different ways.
Because of this, dealers have an obligation to learn their customer's online shopping behaviors and tailor their digital marketing accordingly. See if your digital marketing makes sense for your market by following these auto shoppers' journeys.

RIM's BlackBerry 10 L-Series Smartphone Caught In Video Demo
By Chris Davies/Oct. 12, 2012 7:32 am EST
RIM's BlackBerry 10 L-Series smartphone has apparently been prematurely demonstrated on video, with a rep in Mexico whipping out his unannounced handset to show off the upcoming OS. While so far RIM has only demonstrated its two generations of Dev Alpha hardware, the BlackBerry L-Series unsurprisingly resembles the full-touch smartphone in Hola Telcel's video.
Several leaks have hinted at the L-Series before, with the hardware being caught in the wild back in September for instance, but RIM has resolutely refused to talk specifics. All the Canadian company will say is that it has both full-touch and QWERTY models in the pipeline, and that they'll target the mid- to high-end market, with BlackBerry 7 still being kept on for budget devices.
That QWERTY phone, the BlackBerry N-Series, is still the source of some mystery, though with RIM pushing screen resolution – the Dev Alpha models have a 1280 x 768 panel, for instance – we can guess that even with a smaller display, it will still be pixel-dense. Unfortunately, we may have to wait a considerable period for an official launch of either, with analysts predicting it won't be until March that BlackBerry 10 phones hit shelves.
RIM has proved reasonably aggressive with taking down leaks about the new phones, so we imagine this video won't be live for long (and the rep in question might find himself facing some awkwardness at work). There's more on BlackBerry 10 in our hands-on report with the latest Dev Alpha B device.

Q: Usage of "I'm incredulous!" as an exclamation of shock or disbelief Would the exclamation "I'm incredulous!" be an appropriate response to finding out some unexpected news, if the intention is to convey shock or disbelief?

A: If you are writing a story and you want to have someone who has just received a piece of shocking and totally unexpected information say so in a believable way, I would advise against having the character say "I'm incredulous!"—unless the character is, say, a fictionalized William F. Buckley Jr.
It's not that incredulous inaccurately describes the state of mind of such a character; it's that someone in that state of mind is highly unlikely to respond to a sudden shock with so considered a descriptive term. Far more likely is a simpler expression such as "I can't believe it!" or "I'm stunned!" or "You're lying!" or "Inconceivable!" or the old standby "I'm shocked, shocked!" or even something monosyllabic like "What!" or "Nooooo!" I would even expect "I'm flabbergasted!" to reach the top of a typical shocked person's mental Rolodex of suitable expressions sooner than "I'm incredulous!" would.
But every person (like every person's vocabulary) is different, and it may be that the person you have in mind would in fact exclaim "I'm incredulous!" right off the bat—just as another person might blurt out "I am experiencing a temporary, albeit disorienting, state of commingled astonishment and disapprobationary uncertainty!" Ultimately, the words that a person might actually speak on such an occasion are as unique and unpredictable as the person is.

A: If ever you were to use "incredulous", that would be the perfect time.  The problem is that most people do not know the word, so you might have to explain. Since you're admittedly "pretentious", that might not bother you. Similar cautions apply to "obviate", and "comprise" which some people have heard, and some use, but almost nobody (in America, anyway) uses correctly. So they might  be incredulous when you use any of these words correctly.

The Russian president promised to work for lifting bilateral ties and business, defence and technical cooperation.
Russia is looking forward to working closely with the Narendra Modi government, President Vladimir Putin said in St Petersburg, according to PTI. Putin also promised to work for lifting bilateral ties and economic, military and technical cooperation.
The Russian president added that he had already met Modi. "I am going to work with him closely," Putin said. He called India an "outstanding civilisation," while conveying his congratulations on the recent successful conduct of the general elections.
In the report that was carried by the New Indian Express, Putin said Russia would make all arrangements for improving bilateral relations and economic, humanitarian, military and technical cooperation. "We have a lot of cooperation in many areas, historically and otherwise. The prospects of cooperation are high. We are doing everything to fulfil this," Putin said, while thanking India for standing by Russia in the wake of the Ukraine crisis.
India abstained from voting in the United Nations when Ukraine, backed by the US, tried to pass a resolution against Crimea joining Russia. Earlier India's then-National Security Advisor said Russia had legitimate interests in the peninsula. India also refused to back Western sanctions imposed on Moscow after the Crimean reintegration and the subsequent trouble in the southern and eastern parts of Ukraine.
Putin was cited as saying that the Indian leadership saw the Ukraine problem and considered all its components in historical perspective and with a deep analysis of Russia-India relations. "We are grateful to them for this," PTI quoted Putin as saying.
The Russian president also referred to remarks made by Indian participants in the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum and said trade potential has not been fully tapped.

History Read Along – Inferno: The World at War, Chapters 7-8
July 11, 2018 / Sarah Kay Bierle
It's reading time… Here are the notes for Chapters 7 and 8 in our history read-along.
Be warned: Chapter 7 is rough in a few parts and not suitable for children. However, the chapter notes are certainly suitable for all ages!
Chapter 7: Moscow Saved, Leningrad Starved
1942 marked a turning point in World War, though most participants and witnesses did not recognize it at the time.
Russia's winter froze the German army in place, giving Soviet troops who were equipped for a winter campaign a chance to strike back, driving the Germans away from Moscow.
At Leningrad – Russia's old capital city – the Germans started a siege, never intending to launch a full attack but rather systematically and scientifically starve the defenders and inhabitants.
Soldiers and civilians starved in Leningrad – eating grass and pets – and even resorting to cannibalism.
Leningrad civilians getting water in the street (By RIA Novosti archive, image #907 / Boris Kudoyarov / CC-BY-SA 3.0, CC BY-SA 3.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=15579689)
Savagery soared and both sides dehumanized "the enemy" – thousands died.
Britain and other Allied nations gained a grudging respect for the Soviet Union during this period, despite the different ideology (communism).
The winter in Russia signaled a breaking point in German military domination; the blitzkrieg froze and thousands of German soldiers perish while the Soviets fought a brutal and large scale war of attrition.
Quote of the chapter: "This is no gentleman's war. One becomes totally numb. Human life is so cheap, cheaper than the shovels we use to clear the roads of snow. The state we have reached will seem quite unbelievable to you back home. We do not kill humans but 'the enemy,' who are rendered impersonal – animals at best. They behave the same towards us." Wehrmacht Lieutenant von Heyl, German. (pages 175-176).
Chapter 8: America Embattled
The United States spent twenty-seven months "watching" the war.
Military re-armament began in 1938 through one of President Roosevelt's programs, but it was far from sufficient to ready America for a global conflict.
Franklin D. Roosevelt's third presidential election was closely tied to war happenings and politics.
Americans opposed refugees from Germany during the conflict, but – generally speaking – did not have strong feelings about Nazism or Germany early in the war, often because they lacked solid information.
Japan invaded China in 1937 and continued to expand its conquests, eventually aiming to American holdings in the Pacific.
Trade restrictions and embargoes enforced on Japan by the United States were highly unpopular in the imperialistic country which eventually signed a treaty with German and Italy (creating the "Axis Powers.")
Japan considered attacking Russia in 1941 which could have created an interesting scenario, opening two battlefronts for the Soviet Union.
However, Japan decided to expand farther into the Pacific, leading to the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941.
Attack at Pearl Harbor
American entered the war after Pearl Harbor, and Roosevelt and Churchill agreed to fight in Africa and the Mediterranean until the Allied forces built up their military power.
Quote of the chapter: "No one can honestly promise you today peace at home or abroad. All any human being can do is to promise that he will do his utmost to prevent this country being involved in war." Eleanor Roosevelt (page 185).
There was one bright story in chapter seven that gave me goosebumps and tears. The story of a starving mother in Leningrad who desperately prayed to God (prayer was forbidden in communist Soviet Union at that time) and the next day an unknown soldier brought her a box of food, saying it had been sent by her husband.
I thought the possibility of Japan attacking Russia in 1941 opened a huge door of "what ifs." And would love to discuss that idea with readers in the comment section? What do you think would have happened? Would the United States have stayed out of the war completely? Would Russia have survived two attack fronts?
Your Opinion?
What quotes stood out to you in the chapters? What new ideas or considerations do you have after reading these chapters or the chapter notes? Leave a comment and let the "book club discussion" continue!
P.S. Read Chapters 9 and 10 to get ready for next week…

Had Japan attacked north into Siberia, they would have been defeated (see Nomonhan). But, the armies that counterattacked at Moscow would not have been there, and likely the Soviet capital may have fallen. Then again, the Japanese would not have found in Siberia the war materials necessary to keep up their economy and war machine; it would likely have ground to a halt by summer 1942 under Western embargo.
As a side note, Vladimir Putin's parents barely survived Leningrad.
Fascinating stuff. Definitely interesting to think about and these are similar to the ones Ive been pondering.


Why let cheese come between you and your pizza crust when you can put cheese in the crust?
Of course, the standard pizza crust is made primarily of flour and water, which is not Paleo.
There are any number of options for making a Paleo-friendly pizza crust, including eggplant, cauliflower, tapioca flour, ground meat for meatza and a number of other ingredients.
Not everyone can but if you tolerate dairy, you'll want to try this Paleo Pizza made with a cheese crust.
Using cream cheese as the base for the crust helps this Paleo Pizza taste like the real deal. More and more pizza joints are jumping in on the gluten-free pizza bandwagon except they wind up outsourcing the dough for the crust. When that happens they're typically a frozen (card-board tasting) crust or made from a mixed flour blend made out of beans and rice which have a distinct, lingering aftertaste that I really don't care for.
It turned out really good and I hope you enjoy making this cheesy Paleo treat in your own home!
Add cream cheese, shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, dried oregano and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Combine using a hand mixer.
Pour mixture into a 10.25-inch cast-iron skillet and spread with a spatula until smooth. Transfer skillet to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
While the crust is baking, prepare your choice of toppings. I used a shallot, garlic, portobello mushroom and fresh basil.
Remove the skillet from the oven, smear one can of tomato paste across the top of the crust. Add your choice of toppings. Season with a heavy sprinkling of Herbs de Provence and sea salt and transfer the skillet back to the oven. Bake for 8-10 more minutes or until your toppings look done.

Soup is a very healthy lunch idea and can be made quite quickly. Why not take some to work or school in a flask and eat it with a hunk of crusty bread? This sounds an exotic soup but everything you need is readily available from any supermarket. The lemon might seem an odd ingredient but it really gives the soup a lovely flavour.

2 Add the sweet potato and carrots and cook over a low heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3 Add the herbs, zest and the juice of half the lemon, stock and black pepper.
4 Cover and simmer for 30-40 minutes.
5 Puree the soup in a blender or food processor a little at a time until smooth but retaining some of the texture.
6 Return to the pan to reheat until piping hot before serving.
This pie is a chunky version of shepherd's pie and makes me think of cosy evenings in front of the fire. If you can make extra mashed potatoes a couple of days beforehand as part of another meal, you'll find this pie is much quicker to prepare.
Mashed potatoes are so easy to make. Just peel the potatoes, cut into quarters or smaller if the spuds are really big. Boil for about 20 minutes. When ready, the potatoes should slip off the blade of a knife easily when speared and should look slightly floury.
Add a knob of marg, a splash of soya milk, salt and black pepper and mash thoroughly with a potato masher until smooth and creamy. Add more marg or milk if necessary. For a tasty variation, you could try adding a teaspoon of wholegrain mustard.
675g (1.5 lb) mashed potato1. Fry the veggie sausages in the oil until cooked. Chop into bite sized chunks and put aside.
2. Fry the onions and celery in the oil for 3-4 minutes (add a little more oil if necessary).
3. Add the mushrooms and fry for a further 3-4 minutes.
5 .Add the basil, chilli powder (if using) and the salt and pepper to taste.
6. Cover the mixture and simmer on a low heat for 10-15 minutes.
7. Add the frozen peas and the sausage pieces and stir well before pouring the mixture into a deep oven-proof dish.
8. Cover the mixture with mashed potatoes and place under the grill until the top has browned and serve immediately. If the pie has been prepared in advance and has cooled down, cook in a moderately hot oven 375F/190C/Gas Mark 5 for about half an hour until the mashed potato has browned.
If, like me, you enjoy finishing on a naughty note, this chocolate cake is fabulous and it also has the advantage of being suitable for vegans! More good news is that it can be made well in advance, so the chef can relax and enjoy also.
For chocolate buttercream, dissolve 1-2 tbsp of cocoa powder in a little of the hot water and combine with the rest of the ingredients.
Small amount of plain chocolate to grate over the top.
1 Preheat the oven to 325F/170C/Gas Mark 3.
2 Grease 2 20-22 cm (8-8.5 inch) sandwich tins and line the bottom with a circle of greaseproof paper.
3 Sift the flour, cocoa and baking powder into a bowl. Add the sugar, vanilla, oil and water. Mix well to a batter like consistency.
4 Pour the mixture into the prepared tins and bake for about 40 minutes, until the cakes spring back to a light touch in the centre.
5 Turn the cakes out on to a wire rack and strip off the lining paper. Leave to cool completely.
6 Make the buttercream by beating the margarine in a mixing bowl until creamy, then sift in the icing sugar and beat again until light. Add enough hot water to loosen the mixture a little, beating well.
7 Sandwich the cakes together with a layer of jam or chocolate spread and/or buttercream. Coat the top with the rest and top with grated chocolate.
