What Deborah and Edward are up to..


I had heard of the menstrual cup years ago and thought it was a strange concept. It wasn't until recently that a friend introduced me to UltuCup that I decided to give it a try. Inserting had a bit of a learning curve, but didn't take long to have it inserted properly. Once I had it in properly, I couldn't feel it, and there was on leaking, like tampons. I love the idea of not having to use tampons or bulky pads. It is so environmentally friendly. I have been recommending friends to try it, I probably never would have if a friend hadn't suggested it to me.
So very happy with this cup!! I gave up on using other brands and went back to pads and tampons...until I got my Ultucup in the mail...and it was life changing!! I honestly don't look at my period as this absolute horrible thing anymore!
I was using another brand of cup, but wanted to try this new one because the other brand's nib was causing irritation. After trying the Ultra cup, I felt no irritation because the nib is rounded, and the cup itself seems to be made of a more pliable material. Really happy with my switch!!
I was hesitant of menstrual cups. I was worried that it would leak and I thought it would be awkward to insert and remove but I love the Ultucup! What a time and money saver. No gross strings and I never have to search around for a tampon. It holds so much too. One day I was at school for 10 hours. I forgot I even had my period. When I remembered I thought it was going to be a problem but nope, it held it all. I just emptied it and carried on. Awesome in the water too. No more tampons for me!
This cup is awesome. I've used other brands before but this was the most dependable one. I couldn't feel it at all, it never leaked and wasn't difficult to remove as some other are. I'm still using the one I got 5 months ago and it's like new. Menstrual cups are definitely the future!
I really enjoyed using the Ultucup for the first time. I have been using the Diva Cup for quite a few years now and noticed a difference with the Ultucup. One of the main differences I found is with the stem at the bottom of the cup. I feel so much cleaner with the Ultucup as the stem is solid, whereas the Diva cup, the stem is hollow and difficult to clean. I also really appreciate the attention you have made to the environment right down to the ink used on your instruction pamphlets. I will definitely be promoting the Ultucup to all of my friends!
"Here's what I liked about the Ultucup: - the silicone is sourced in the US - it's longer than any other menstrual cup on the market, which is great for those with a high cervix - the rim is soft enough that removal isn't painful like it can be with other cups What I didn't like: - the price, $40 is a bit high for a little silicone cup - the capacity doesn't seem sufficient for my heaviest days, and both sizes are the same capacity Overall, I had a much better experience with the Ultucup versus other cups I've tried, particularly for my high cervix. But, it's leaked every time I've used it, so I wish there was a higher capacity option. Changing more frequently throughout the day just isn't convenient."
I have used another cup in the past and wanted to give this product a try as it is made in the USA. I was not disappointed! So far, I love it!
After having my son 6 years ago, I have had problems with tampons. I started using pads again and they were just so uncomfortable. I was told of the Ultucup. I was skeptical at first, being I have never tried anything like that before, but I was willing to try after exhausting the resources I have been given. After 6 years of frustration with tampons and pads, I have to say that I was very pleased and pleasantly surprised with the Ultucup. I will never go back to the alternative again, I can just go about my day now with no discomfort or leaking.
The UltuCup is my preferred cup of choice and makes me forget I have my period. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a stress and mess free time of the month! No more expensive monthly visits to load up on tampons, pads and liners.
I bought this cup because it is a bit smaller than the other cups I could find. I was nervous about how a menstrual cup would fit because a lot of them looked way too big! After trying this cup, I absolutely love it! The size is great and I can't feel it at all. I would recommend this cup for anyone looking for a smaller menstrual cup.
Love the size of this cup! I don't have a super heavy flow, so the smaller size was great for me and I honestly found inserting and removing it a little easier than other cups I have tried.
After having 5 kids I now have a fairly low cervix, and the first cup I bought for it was the Meluna, which worked but I wasn't happy with it. If I used it more I would probably cut off the stem but the capacity was severely lacking. Enter the Merula, definitely designed for a low cervix, and the capacity is great! I heard about the Ultucup, and really wanted to try it to see if it would be another good option for me. As soon as I received it in the mail I was not feeling too optimistic. After lining them up for the above picture I was tempted to not even test it out. As you can see it is definitely taller than the other low cervix options. In order to test it I did have to remove the stem, and at first I thought that it might work, but the second I was up and moving it took me less than 2 minutes to decide I could not use it. Overall if it fits for you it seems like a very well made and comfortable cup. I was a bit annoyed with the amount of fuzz on it straight out of the box, but that was easy enough to resolve. This cup may be best for someone looking for a smaller cup but not necessarily for a low cervix.
Finally, after a couple years of trying another brand, I was able to use Ultucup's low cervix model! I almost can't wait for my period, to try it again next month. Thank you Ultumum!
I tried the Diva Cup in the past and I must say I much prefer this one. My Diva Cup always leaked, I have no issues with leaking with my UltuCup. It's so comfortable I sometimes forget that I have my period! I also find this cup easier to take out than my last one. I like this model so much, I am considering also getting the mini cup for my lighter flow days.
This cup is made by Casco Bay Molding Company. If you've used the original Casco Cup and found it too soft, this cup is the exact same except a little more firm. The silicone is similar in feel to the Diva Cup. The model mini I ordered is great for a lower cervix or a lighter flow. If you have a higher cervix, I do suggest the model 1 or 2, depending on your flow. I've had 0 issues with this cup, nor the Casco Cup. The Casco Cup is about $10 cheaper, but both are great cups and well worth the money.
The concept of the Ultucup is amazing. I love that it is a greener alternative to regular period products. While I admit it will take some getting used to, I think that the Ultucup is something that every woman should try. It keeps you feeling cleaner and keeps the environment cleaner too.
Once I was up to speed on how to use it, I FELL IN LOVE with my ultucup! I always used to be forgetting to tuck a couple tampons in my purse, or panicking because I'd lost count of the hours since I put one in. Because it's always with me, and only needs changing once or twice a day, I never have to worry about it anymore! More than anything else, I just feel freedom! I don't have to worry about my period anymore. I'm so happy I tried it and I'm happy to be reducing my environmental impact!
This was bought as a gift for my sister in law. She has tried a menstrual cup before but had issues with it - it felt uncomfortable and leaked (she tried sizes 1 & 2 from another cup). She was hesitant to try the low cervix cup as she assumed she would have the same issues. Her words to me are Thank You, Thank You, Thank You! Unfortunately for me, it is too late for me to try it!

Ranger's players, staff and fans will make their way to Sheffield on Tuesday and they will still be buzzing after the last gasp winner on Saturday. Ranger's hard work and perseverance finally overcoming the luck Parkgate had benefited from over 180 minutes of football. This rearranged fixture was previously scheduled for the start of February; it originally fell foul to wet weather.
Hallam's goalless draw at East Yorkshire Carnegie means for the first time in a long time that the destiny of the NCEL Division One title is no longer in their hands. Second placed Campion now have that honour.
The match is one that all involved have been looking forward to for a long time. One of the key battles on Tuesday night will be between the two players called Keiran. Rangers captain Keiran Wressell has been superb throughout this season, and will be facing the league's leading scorer in Kieran Watson.
With five games to go and 15 points up for grabs, it is still all to play for at the top. #Believe.
Interesting facts about Hallam: Right, this is the club this feature in the match preview has been waiting for!!!
In 1867, Hallam won the first ever football competition, the Youdan Cup. The trophy was subsequently misplaced by the club, and did not resurface again until 1997 when a Scottish antiques collector who had come into possession of the silver trophy sold it back to the club for £2,000. In 2014, the trophy was featured on the BBC programme Antiques Roadshow, where it was valued at £100,000. Club chairman Chris Taylor subsequently said the club had no plans to sell the trophy.
Although formed in 1860, the football club can trace its links even further back, to 1804, when the owner of the Plough Inn public house on Sandygate Road agreed to allow a new cricket club, Hallam CC, to start playing on an adjacent field he owned. They still play there today, making it one of oldest football grounds in the world, still in use. In 2012, Sandygate Road received a much-needed facelift, paid for by a posthumous donation by a lifelong supporter who had left the club a substantial amount of money in his will.


No More Glucose Drinks, Gestational Diabetes Test Is Changing!
Is The Gestational Diabetes Test Important?
Every expecting mother in their second trimester has had to undergo a long drawn out blood test to screen for the gestational diabetes test. Gynecologists are unanimous in getting the test done on all their patients because they are wary of the havoc gestational diabetes can play in the life of the mother as well as the child. Gestational diabetes refers to the abnormal and sustained rise in blood sugar levels during the gestational period. Gestational diabetes during later stages of pregnancy can result in preterm birth, miscarriage and even perinatal death. The infants from gestational diabetic mothers are larger than usual and hence stand a higher chance of fetal injury. Even after childbirth, the infant may develop low blood glucose levels (hypoglycemia), jaundice and respiratory distress syndrome. Both the mother and the child are at risk of having Type-2 diabetes mellitus in later life. Several factors make a woman vulnerable to gestational diabetes, such as the age of conception, race, nutrition, family history, sedentary lifestyle, and hypertension.
RELATED: A PISTACHIO NUT TO HELP WITH GD?
The Oral Glucose Tolerance Test is the screening for the gestational diabetes test, currently recommended by American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology and American Diabetes Association. The woman in the 24th to 28th week of pregnancy is asked to drink an orange concentrated sugary drink. The base blood sugar level is compared with the blood sugar levels after every hour for three hours. If the blood sugar exceeds 130mg/dL, the woman is cautioned of possible gestational diabetes during later stages of pregnancy and asked to bring about dietary changes, including physical exercises and keeping a vigil on their blood sugar levels. The agony of a woman suffering nausea, morning sickness and having a dislike to intense flavors, is aggravated when she has to drink a sugary syrup to start with and sit through the long test and enduring the multiple jabs for the blood test. The test, in spite of its significance, has proven to have a reduced accuracy of 76%. The sensitivity and specificity of such a paramount test are questionable when it cannot pre-diagnose 24 out of every 100 women who go on to have gestational diabetes.
The agony of a woman suffering nausea, morning sickness and having a dislike to intense flavors, is aggravated when she has to drink a sugary syrup to start with and sit through the long test and enduring the multiple jabs for the blood test.
Is There A Smarter Alternative?
In such a scenario, the need of the hour is a reliable bio-marker which can act as an accurate predictor of gestational diabetes. Scientific research carried out at Brigham and Women's Hospital by Jose A Halperin, Associate Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, have identified a complement regulatory protein, CD59, which gets glycated to form glycated-CD59 (GCD59) as a precursor to the diabetic condition. Extensive clinical studies have shown that glycation-inactivation of CD59 is directly linked to pathologies and tissue damages characteristic of the diabetic state. Halperin's group are pretty sure that blood plasma levels of GCD59 are a reliable bio-marker for gestational diabetes as published in the journal Diabetes Care in 2017. The group has also developed an ELISA technique that detects blood plasma GCD59. A single measurement of the GCD59 at the 26th gestation week accurately identified women who are likely to be gestational diabetics, yet remained undetected by the glucose challenge tests. With no glucose drinks or multiple blood tests, this innovation is in all probability the best thing to happen for the gestational diabetes test.

All expecting mothers will be keen to have a simple, reliable test for screening gestational diabetes rather than going through an uncomfortable blood test with poor reproducible. The identification of GCD59 as the bio-marker for diabetes is a significant milestone towards making the life of expecting mothers, a bit more easier.

Launched in 1980, the Roland TR-808 is known today as one of electronic music's most revolutionary instruments. It was instrumental to the development of house and techno, and is responsible for numerous pop and hip hop hits—more than any other drum machine ever made, actually.
And now, a New York City-based creative marketing agency has developed fully functional TR-808 inspired Adidas sneakers as part of the "Just for Kicks" creative challenge.
Called the Neely Air Roland TR-808: Disturb the Peace, the custom Mi Adidas shoes can actually be used to make beats. They feature a start/stop button, volume control, and six pre-programmed settings; we'd imagine a combination of kick, snare, toms, clap, cowbell, and hi-hat.
It's also been reported they feature a USB port, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, but the marketing agency's page makes no mention of those extras.
Unfortunately it really doesn't matter, as there aren't any plans for the Neely Air to hit the production line as of yet. Though if by some miracle they do land on our feet, we can picture making beats on the way home from a sick night out, wirelessly uploading the loop to your desktop and opening on our DAW to tinker with later.
What a world that would be (if you ignore how awkward it would look to make beats on your shoes).
For now however, we'll simply have to dream, and oggle the incredible design of these babies with the pictures below.

I have been a hot rod guy since a kid. One car I have always wanted was a 1936 Chevrolet 5 Window Coupe that was ready to go. I found one that was close to my dream car on Classic Car Store's website. All steel body built from the ground up as a Pro-Touring car and built right. Jim was very helpful, specific and told me the good and bad about the car. I decided to buy it, bought a one-way ticket from Oklahoma to Birmingham, AL. I hoped the car was what it was supposed to be. Jim picked me up at the Airport and took me to the Owner, an elderly gentleman in a small country town. The car was everything represented, much nicer than I expected. After getting the banking handled I made a road trip back home to Oklahoma stopping and seeing a couple of friends on the way back. Not one problem with the car. Overall it was an excellent experience, especially when you are buying a car from photos and getting information from someone you don't know. If you want a straight shooter when buying a Classic Car, Jim is the man. Thank you, DF-OK

1967 Ferrari 330GT 2+2 Series II Single-Headlight This 1967 Ferrari 330GT 2+2 Series II single-headlight car is a matching numbers example just out of 40 year ownership. Red with black leather interior that's almost like new. It's a very late Series II car with a high chassis number (only about 25 left the factory after this car). It also has power steering, power brakes, and power windows from the factory. It's a European version with 99k km and a very presentable driver. The original color was Light Metallic Green and it was painted Rosso Nearco in 1975. It was re-painted Rosso Nearco in 1981 and the bumpers re-chromed in 1982. It could use some paint work at this point in order to be taken to the next level but is in very good condition overall with nice straight body panels. It comes accompanied by it's Marcel Massini report. This 330GT is a prime consideration for the demanding Ferrari enthusiast in search of a high-quality example of one of the all-time great front-engined V-12 Ferraris. NEW PRICE: $325,000

how does he get around again?
That was hilarious. RoG, you may be insane, but in a good way.
Very well done. The last frame is a serious LOL.
I thought that was funny in a twisted way. Well played.
I didn't think that was very funny at all.
Creepy (the eyes, man! Those freakin' eyes!) and funny. Plus, it's a Basking Shark, and any mention of that kind of shark just makes me laugh (I especially love the picture of it going through the vegetable aisle in thye grocery store).
great, now I'm gonna see two strange lights for the rest of the day. just great.
wait I solved it, that baby he was eating in the store, the lady was the mom!!
Completely bizarre, but what else is the internet for?
Ah man, I just noticed the baby in there. That made me laugh even harder... I know, that's probably not a good thing, but the fact that there's a picture up there of a basking shark floating (swimming? How does he get around? And just how important is leg room to a shark?) around a grocery store, eating up vegies and the occasional baby, well, that's just a big bucket of LOL to me.
with the demonic 'Village of the Damned' kids' eyes made me LOL.
I wanna have Basky's shark-babies.
I think that Basky's too kind to actually eat a Baby. he may have been carrying it, Kirby-style, in his mouth to hand it over to security. I mean, he has no arms.
Just because they're the second biggest fish, they just don't get any love.
The part with the stamps at the end was genius. It's like that lady had everything planned out from the beginning.
I found that quite excellent.
I found it funny in that uncomfortable, unnerving sort of way. Yay!
The scary thing is that I'm surprised this hasn't happened to me, yet. It really honestly wouldn't faze me if it did happen to me, because well, I've had weirder things happen. Like that can of beans that seemed to have dimensional-failure-issues.
honestly, those stalkers exist, i'd be afraid if i had an ugly stalker, but if theyre "hittable" its like having youre very own personal superfan. I actually met a gal like that beore. she was unattractive and not great in the personality (the thing i look for when looking past the outside ["because beauty is only skin deep, so shutup before i peel your skin off"-i dont remember when i threatened someone with that, but i do remember yelling it atleast once]) so i might try hypnotizing er into becoming my own super fan. it'd be good.
I just loved that he was a Basking Shark for NO REASON!! Greatest thing ever!
"asila how come you dont post so much anymore"
Full-time classes But I still love you!
NOT THE SMILING STAMP LADY!!!
I find it kinda unsettling, though... Because, well... There ARE people like that. Not with glowing eyes, but still... Makes you nervous.
Kudos bro, that was a well put together short story.
Maybe it was the Psyconauts' final boss music I had playing during it.
I'm creeped out. I think I'll go hide in a corner now where she can't see me.
Going to gouge her eyes out.

Irish National Opera 2021-22: an explosion of opera
Commentary News
Irish National Opera's biggest-ever season
Wednesday 7 July 2021 to Saturday 25 June 2022
58 performances in 26 spaces at 20 different locations, 9 new productions,
6 operas by Irish composers, including 4 world premieres
Irish National Opera's 2021-22 season is its biggest ever, and its most diverse.
"It's been a most exciting year at INO," says artistic director, Fergus Sheil. "Hectic, changeable, unpredictable and
challenging. And yet peculiarly rewarding as the best laid plans had to be revisited and reshaped to keep opera
alive as we found new ways of bringing it to our audience. We also wanted to make sure the creators and recreators of opera could be remunerated for plying their craft. Opera at any time is a complex matrix to manage.
And for the last 16 months we have all been grappling with extra dimensions of that complexity. The richness of
our new offering is explained by us having had to carry forward productions from last season, and also branch
out to find new connections with opera lovers. And also by a sizeable uplift in our Arts Council grant."
The branching out includes the company's largest-ever outdoor undertaking, Richard Strauss's epic Elektra, in
the atmospheric setting of the Castle Yard in Kilkenny with Belfast soprano Giselle Allen making her INO debut
as the vengeful heroine. She says of her character that Elektra is "a woman driven by the all-consuming grief of
losing her father, she is hell-bent on revenge against her mother who ordered his murder," and adds, "It's a
complex and difficult mother/daughter dynamic that resonates even today." Conall Morrison's new production is
presented in association with Kilkenny Arts Festival, one of the many new working partnerships that have made
such an enlarged new season possible. The five performances run between Thursday 5 August and Saturday 14
Before that, in the new season's opening tour starting on Wednesday 7 July, there is a series of late-night outdoor
screenings of Edwina Casey's new film of Peter Maxwell Davies's spooky chamber opera, The Lighthouse. It's
one of three new films which INO produced this year when lockdown did not allow live performances with an
audience. The Lighthouse will be screened at places as appropriately atmospheric as Hook Head Lighthouse in
Wexford and Fanad Head Lighthouse in Donegal.
Later in July, INO will stream Amanda Feery's A Thing I Cannot Name, a new filmed opera exploring experiences
of female desire, with a libretto by Megan Nolan. Amanda's work has been praised for its "zinging punch" (The
Irish Times) and Megan's first novel, Acts of Desperation, applauded by fellow writer Marian Keyes for "Such
brilliant writing about female desire… honest and visceral". The world premiere is being presented as part of the
West Cork Literary Festival on Tuesday 27 July and will feature a conversation between the work's creators and
Julie Kelleher, CEO and artistic director of the Mermaid Arts Centre in Bray, and a former artistic director of The
Everyman in Cork.
Elektra is one of no less than nine new productions in a schedule that also includes the first national tour of Brian
Irvine and Netia Jones's big 2019 hit, Least Like The Other – Searching For Rosemary Kennedy. This probing and
disturbing examination of the fate of JFK's sister Rosemary was first presented at Galway International Arts
Festival in 2019. Between Saturday 11 and Saturday 25 September it visits Dublin, Cork and Limerick in a new,
16-track surround-sound version. Like Elektra, it will be performed with live cast and pre-recorded orchestra.
The last of the season's three films captures the incredibly virtuosic and dizzying whirlwind of Gerald Barry's comic
masterpiece Alice's Adventures Under Ground. This was originally planned as a live production for last season,
but with the cast, sets, costumes and crew all available, the only way to get it done was as a film. With Claudia
Boyle in the astonishingly demanding title role, Hugh O'Conor directs the film of Antony McDonald's visually
ravishing and unfailingly witty production. The film will stream for six months from Friday 5 November on
www.irishnationalopera.ie (tickets €9) and also on www.roh.org.uk, the website of the Royal Opera House, Covent
Garden, co-producers with INO of the original production. At the same time a new recording of the work, on the
Signum Classics label, will be issued on CD and also be available online for streaming and download.
Irish soprano Sinéad Campbell Wallace stars in the title role of the season's first totally new, indoor offering, of
Beethoven's life-enhancing opera Fidelio, a role in which Opera magazine has already praised her as
"remarkable… both vocally and dramatically". She says that "Leonore [disguised as Fidelio in the opera] is a
character of integrity, passion, bravery and hope: a role model for the modern day woman." Fidelio will have five
performances in Annabelle's Comyn's new production at the Gaiety Theatre, Dublin, between Sunday 7 and
Saturday 13 November.
A live production of Peter Maxwell Davies's The Lighthouse, also directed by Edwina Casey, goes on a 10-
performance tour between Saturday 15 November and Saturday 11 December. It will be seen in Dundalk, Cork,
Tralee, Ennis, Navan, Dublin, Bray and Letterkenny.
The next new production is of Vivaldi's Bajazet, a highly-regarded 1735 pasticcio incorporating arias by other
composers with Vivaldi's own work. It is directed by Adele Thomas and will delight fans of INO's first Vivaldi
production, Griselda, in 2019. It features the powerful Italian bass-baritone Gianluca Margheri in the title role and
marks the INO debut of Irish mezzo-soprano Rachel Kelly as Irene. After its eight performances in Ireland, the
opera, which is another co-production with Covent Garden, will run for six performances at the Royal Opera's
Linbury Theatre in London between Friday 4 and Saturday 12 February 2022.
One of the early operatic victims of the pandemic was INO's production of Bizet's Carmen, which was already
four weeks in rehearsal when it had to be cancelled. The re-scheduled first Dublin performance of Paul Curran's
production, again with Paula Murrihy in the title role and Celine Byrne as Micaëla, is at the Bord Gáis Energy
Theatre on Monday 7 March 2022, with further performances on Wednesday 9, Friday 11 and Saturday 12.
INO is delighted to be part of Elaine Agnew and Jessica Traynor's new community opera Paper Boat, a Galway
2020 European Capital of Culture legacy project being presented by Music for Galway. The work was specifically
conceived for and themed about St Nicholas' Collegiate Church, which celebrated its 700th anniversary last year,
and the world premiere production will be given there between Thursday 21 and Saturday 23 April 2022.
Two great Irish singers compete for dominance as the rival queens – Elizabeth and Mary – in Donizetti's Maria
Stuarda, an opera so controversial and problematic in its time that it disappeared from view and didn't make it into
the core operatic repertoire until the second half of the 20th century. Mezzo-soprano Tara Erraught is in the title
role and Anna Devin is Elisabetta, Tom Creed directs and Fergus Sheil conducts the Irish National Opera
Orchestra and Chorus. There are four performances in Dublin, at the Gaiety Theatre, between Sunday 5 and
Saturday 11 June 2022, and one each in Cork (Thursday 16 June) and Wexford (Saturday 19 June).
The season's line up also includes INO's first ever virtual reality community opera. Finola Merivale's Out of The
Ordinary is being written in conjunction with communities in Inis Meáin, Tallaght and South Dublin, and rural
Ireland. This truly ground-breaking project, directed by Jo Mangan has already won the coveted €50,000 Fedora
Platform Digital Prize for 2021.
Horse Ape Bird, by composer David Coonan and writer Dylan Coburn Gray, is INO's first-ever speciallycommissioned youth opera. It asks the provocative question, "Are animals animals because they lack something
we possess, or vice versa?" INO is producing it with Music Generation Kildare, Music Generation Meath and the
Solstice Arts Centre, Navan, in partnership with the Music Department, Maynooth University, and it is also
supported by St Patrick's College, Maynooth.
Separately from the season's offerings, Irish National Opera is delighted to have been asked by The Arts Council
and the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media to produce a pilot test concert in the
Cork Opera House on Saturday 10 July – CASTA DIVA, An Evening with Majella Cullagh and Guests.
INO Executive Director Diego Fasciati says, "This is the first live opera event in Cork Opera House in over 15
months, and the first performance by Irish National Opera, too. It will be an emotional and unforgettable evening.
Majella will be joined by soprano Emma Nash, mezzo-soprano Niamh O'Sullivan, tenor Gavan Ring and baritone
Brendan Collins, accompanied on the piano by Gary Beecher. From Bellini's magical aria 'Casta diva' from Norma
to the famous quartet from Verdi's Rigoletto, this unmissable operatic evening of much-loved arias and ensemble
numbers will be enthralling."

AT&T's ECOMP is Yuge
AT&T's ECOMP is Yuge
by Tim McElligott
AT&T recently shared its platform vision for product- and service-independent capabilities for the design, creation and lifecycle management of its Domain 2.0 (D2) environment So let's get this out of the way from the start: AT&T's newly proposed ECOMP architecture deserves a better name. Work this significant and game-changing has earned the right to have a moniker that doesn't sound like it came straight outta Bellcore, especially since the new architecture is as far from the old institution as one could get. So a little creativity, whimsy perhaps, would have been nice. It may have even helped erase any niggling doubt that we are witnessing a transformed AT&T—and maybe even the last vestiges of the traditional phone industry, which Stratecast believes we are.
That said, ECOMP, or Enhanced Control, Orchestration, Management & Policy, contains everything that critics, competitive providers, and Internet upstarts-turned-conglomerates said Communications Service Providers (CSPs) could never do and represents all that naysayers said they'd never be. When the ideas are refined, the bugs worked out, the setbacks overcome and the laggards weeded out, AT&T and the industry will fulfill a lot of promises with work like this and take a whole new population of market participants and customers along for the ride. Yes, ECOMP is big stuff; it is yuge.
AT&T feels strong enough about the necessity of the architectural changes it is making and confident enough it its initial work, that the company said it is "amenable to releasing ECOMP into open source." ECOMP might not yet be thee answer to enabling and supporting the next generation virtual network, but it is an answer. It is a well-conceived, significant answer, and it comes at a time when industry watchers were beginning to tire of asking, "Yes, Domain 2.0 (D2) is visionary and virtualization is the way of the future, but what about management and control? When are we going to get serious about security and configuration management? Performance? What about service assurance and automation?"
ECOMP shows that these issues have not been ignored. The ECOMP architecture begins to bring SDN and NFV concepts together within its Execution Framework and gives the first sign of different types of controllers and orchestrators being used within the framework. AT&T also fleshed out ETSI MANO's service description function by adding a Design Framework, which includes metadata-driven policies for service and infrastructure descriptors and processes. The architecture also solidifies the interfaces for third party developers and OSS/BSS.
It is interesting that in the ECOMP architecture below, networking now appears as simply another part of the managed environment (grey cloud at bottom-right) on par with storage and compute resources. This is not true of course in the big picture; the network is still critical. To the contrary, this is where D2 and the AT&T Integrated Cloud (AIC) infrastructure reside. If one were to look at the D2 architecture it would look quite the opposite with ECOMP as a non-central extension off the cloud-based NFV architecture. Still it is refreshing and encouraging to see a diagram with this much detail on components that are about something other than the networking function, that puts service creation, enablement and assurance center stage.
Figure 1: ECOMP Platform Components
While Stratecast welcomes this development and applauds AT&T's willingness to embrace the open source community, some questions are being left in limbo for the time being. Caveats were injected into conversations around OSS/BSS and automation. Regarding automation, AT&T said "a closed loop automation approach that provides dynamic capacity and consistent failure management when and where it is needed." Stratecast agrees that it is wise not to rush into broad-scale automation, particularly with a new, software driven architecture. However, we look forward to more clarity on this front.
Regarding OSS/BSS, AT&T said ECOMP does not directly support legacy physical elements, but works with traditional OSS's to provide a seamless customer experience across both virtual and physical elements. This, too, needs clarity over time. Key points to consider are:
What role, if any, will remain for some traditional OSS/BSS suppliers in the new environment?
Will there be room in the framework for independent point solutions or will existing functionality be rolled up into controllers and orchestrators?
If the early returns from reaching out to the open source community are positive and productive, how far will open source reach into the framework?
What of software suppliers with product built on code that is long past the sharing stage where the open source community could make any sense of it, let alone contribute to it?
Stratecast understands it is not the responsibility of AT&T or any other CSP to fret over the fate of legacy suppliers of support software. It is the software suppliers' job to continue to innovate in order to secure their futures. Stratecast also agrees that CSPs need to get out from under their more onerous back-office business models. However, it will be good to better understand what functionality is on the table for open source and which is not. It also will be interesting to see how the gesture to the open source community is received and reciprocated.
All in all, seeing a platform with performance, reliability, security, resiliency and metadata-driven assurance at its core is a welcome approach. This is what will become known as operationalizing NFV. It is, in large part, what makes ECOMP revolutionary—even if the development and rollout over several years may feel more evolutionary.

The contemporary London house that former Chelsea FC manager Jose Mourinho rented is back on the rental market.
Mr Morinho lived in the five-bedroom house until he left the club in September 2007. It's only a few minutes from Stamford Bridge in Chelsea Harbour and has a little patio garden that his Yorkshire terrier, Gullit, would have enjoyed running around in, as long the dog kept out of the Japanese-style water feature.
The 3,000 square feet home is large, with excellent entertaining space and with state-of-the-art interiors, just the thing for a get up and go professional.


Featured in the Strategies section of the June 29 – July 5, 2018 Issue of the Houston Business Journal.
Relocating offices is costly and time-consuming, but sometimes you just must do it. Maybe your staff has outgrown your space, or possibly you are deal shopping your expiring lease. After all there is an abundance of very negotiable sublease space up for grabs in Houston to the tune of about 6.6M square feet at the end of Q1 2018, up from 5.72M square feet available at the end of Q4 2017.
Regardless of your reason to pack up shop and move, what we often find is that the moving of your IT equipment is often overlooked and underestimated. This is unfortunate because it is THE opportune time to do some housekeeping, consolidation, and modernization of your technology. It is also very scary as technology downtime can cause major disruptions in your business.
Assign an internal project manager to coordinate activities with other aspects of the move and to provide keep your employees informed. One of the project managers first task should be to alert your service providers: ensure that your telecom and internet providers are aware of the move date at least 60 days in advance. This is also a time to consider if your new office has Internet speeds available to meet your future requirements.
Cabling: Is there existing cabling for phones/computers? Is there enough runs and are they in the locations you need them?
Power: Are there enough power outlets per room? For each desk? How about conference rooms?
Physical security: Is there cabling for security cameras? How about access control for doors?
This is the time to inventory all your IT equipment and determine what do you keep and what can be replaced. In most cases, a new network can be installed prior to the move to make the move a seamless transition. This is also a terrific time to explore new technologies like cloud software and high-speed wireless that can move your business forward.
When relocating offices, it is imperative to have an up to date and tested DR Plan to protect your risk of data loss and downtime during the move. Every company should have a comprehensive DR Plan in place already, but unfortunately, we find most do not; 68.5% of the respondents to a 2018 survey on Disaster Recovery believed that they had an incomplete DR plan. Moreover, we find that many of the companies that do have a DR plan, are not testing the plan. In the same survey less than half of the respondents (48.5%) had performed DR test in 2017. Creating (or updating) and testing a DR Plan takes time, don't risk not having one in place when you move.
Moving servers, desktops and other electronic equipment require proper shutdown, disassembly and handling during transportation. You will want to bring in IT experts to assist here or if a moving company is handling the transport of equipment, ensure they have the proper training and expertise for it.

Kate Garraway has been given an MBE while Mel B was given an honour for her work with domestic violence charity in the 2022 New Year's Honours list.
TV presenter Kate, 54, was awarded the honour for her services to broadcasting after documenting her husband Derek Draper's battle with Covid-19.
Elsewhere, Melanie Brown, 46, of the Spice Girls, better known as Mel B, has been made an MBE for her work with domestic violence charity Women's Aid.
The stars were among hundreds recognised in the New Year Honours today, including Joanna Lumley, 007's Daniel Craig, the Last Leg's Adam Hills and TV presenter Katie Piper.
Covid: TV presenter Kate Garraway, 54, received her honour for services to broadcasting after documenting husband Derek Draper's battle with Covid-19
Kate was involved in award-winning documentary Finding Derek, which gave a raw account of Kate, 54, coming to terms with her husband Derek, 54, falling into a coma following Covid complications.
The virus wreaked havoc throughout his entire body, resulting in kidney failure, liver and pancreatic damage. On more than one occasion his heart stopped beating, he battled pneumonia and fought infections which punctured holes in his lungs.
A sequel to the documentary Caring For Derek is also set to be released in 2022 and will document Derek's return home, where he is being cared for by Kate.
Honours: Melanie Brown, 46, of the Spice Girls, better known as Mel B, has been made an MBE for her work with domestic violence charity Women's Aid
The Good Morning Britain presenter – who now acts as a carer for Derek – picked up the National Television Award for Authored Documentary in September for the first film.
Meanwhile, Mel B has been given an MBE after speaking about her experience of abuse and relentlessly campaigning for change, even taking her crusade to Downing Street back in 2019.

Speaking of her honour, Mel B said her mother asked her if she had 'done something wrong' when the letter arrived in the post, saying she felt 'so emotional' once she opened the letter.
Reflecting on that moment, she told The Sun: 'I thought about all the women I've met over the past few years who have been through terrible situations, women who have died, women who are still suffering.
'This, for me, was all about them. It still is.'
Two years ago, the Yorkshire-born pop star released her memoir Brutally Honest, which led her to work with Women's Aid after she detailed her marriage with Stephen Belafonte.
Mel split from Stephen, 46, in 2017 and claimed he had emotionally and physically abused her during their 10-year marriage – something which he has always vehemently denied.
Covid: The Good Morning Britain presenter – who now acts as a carer for Derek – picked up the National Television Award for Authored Documentary in September for the film
She claimed that her marriage 'nearly killed her' and said she felt compelled to speak out about it in her autobiography Brutally Honest.
In previous interviews, the mother-of-three also claimed she was financially abused during her marriage, having no access to her own money.
Mel shares daughter Madison, 10, with Stephen. She began divorce proceedings in 2018 before eventually reaching a settlement which involved abuse charges being dropped.
Mel is also mother to daughters Phoenix, 22, from her previous relationship with ex Jimmy Gulzar, and Angel, 14, who she shares with ex Eddie Murphy.
Elsewhere in the New Year's Honours List, film director John Boorman, whose movies include Point Blank, has also been knighted.

The model said her damehood was 'completely unexpected' and 'extraordinary' after the 2022 list was revealed on New Year's Eve.
She said: 'I thought, how has this happened? Is it a mistake? I truly was completely thrown by it, and thrilled to bits, and so touched.'
Bond actor Daniel Craig was given a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George – the same honour as 007, while Diversity's Ashley Banjo was awarded an MBE for services to dance
Bond actor Daniel Craig is made a companion of the Order of St Michael and St George, which is normally reserved for spies and senior diplomats.
It is also the same honour that 007 was 'decorated' with in the film series and Ian Fleming's books.
Daniel's honour comes after he played Bond for the last time in No Time to Die, a character he has played since 2006.
Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson have also become CBEs for services to film, drama, philanthropy and skills.
'I'm so touched': Joanna Lumley, who stars in Absolutely Fabulous, and Call the Midwife star Vanessa Redgrave have both been made dames in the star-studded honours list

Below is our recent interview with Hyo Min Park, Co-Founder & CTO at GenEdit:
Q: What's the story behind GenEdit? Could you introduce your company to our readers?
A: GenEdit, Inc. was founded in 2016 to be a leading biotechnology company focused on the development of novel, non-viral, nanoparticle-based delivery technologies to enable the next generation CRISPR-based gene therapies.
CRISPR is a revolutionary technology that enables precise genome editing and has the potential to provide a curative solution for thousands of genetic diseases. The key challenge with CRISPR based therapeutics is delivering them in a safe and effective manner. Existing delivery technologies such as adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) have been shown to have safety and manufacturing issues and lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are only able to target the liver. These delivery challenges currently limit the ability to broadly use CRISPR-based therapeutics for a significant number of genetic diseases.
Using both our proprietary engineering capabilities and our novel polymer-based nanoparticle library, GenEdit provides a unique technology platform to enable the development of CRISPR-based therapeutics. GenEdit's approach has shown the potential to enable safer delivery options for gene therapies with more improved efficiency.

Q: How did you meet your co-founders and what inspired you to work together on GenEdit?
A: My co-founder Kunwoo Lee and I first met in our first year of graduate school at UC Berkeley. We became close very quickly and talked about science and translation of the technologies all the time. He is the best scientist with scientific insight and a great personality. Other than science, he motivates me a lot in many different ways. I've always been dreaming of starting a company with someone like him who I can respect and learn a lot from.
Q: What are the biggest challenges for your team?
A: There are numerous unmet medical need diseases we want to study, but due to the limited resources and time, we have to set a clear goal and focus on selected targets. This round will help the company to expand our team and demonstrate our system's efficacy in various diseases.
Q: Congrats on raising $8,5M! Could you tell us more about your recent funding round?
A: We are very excited and honored to have a partner like DCVC and Sequoia Capital who have backed entrepreneurs applying deep tech to transform giant industries. DCVC recently launched DCVC Bio fund and its principals have supported brilliant people develop cutting edge biotechnologies changing global-scale businesses for over twenty years. We couldn't ask for better partners who believe in our vision and plans for the future. With the new funding, we'll continue to advance our proprietary polymer nanoparticle system and build a strong team for developing the best technology.

Q: What is your main goal at the moment?
A: Our mission is to solve the delivery problem, which is the most difficult challenge of translating CRISPR-based gene editing into therapeutics. We've made huge progress in building a polymer library and developing a screening system to find the best formulas specific for delivery to target tissues like the brain, liver, and muscle. Our recent publications have demonstrated efficient gene editing can have therapeutic effects in live animal models with genetic diseases. Now we are focusing on designing new polymers with low toxicity for better targeting and safe delivery for translation into human therapeutics. We will grow our team and demonstrate proof of concept in new genetic disorders to develop GenEdit's non-viral genetic therapeutics pipeline.

Provost of Aberdeenshire, Jill Webster, co-owner of Mitchells Dairy, Keith Whyte, and Moorial the cow with her new tartan rosette.
Aberdeenshire Council celebrated Tartan Day (April 6) with the launch of a new guide for businesses wishing to make use of the area's official tartan.
The Aberdeenshire Tartan: Home Colours was created by Banff-born Donna Wilson, an internationally-acclaimed textile designer, in partnership with the council and local school pupils.
The tartan draws inspiration from landmarks such as the infamous Aunt Betty's sweet shop in Stonehaven and the Glen Garioch distillery as well as the beautiful Aberdeenshire countryside.
The design was developed for use by the Aberdeenshire community and businesses, crafters and other interested parties now have the chance to look at how to incorporate the tartan in their work.
A brochure highlighting the story behind the project and the opportunities available has been launched at one of the tartan's early adopters, Mitchells Dairy in Inverurie.
The well-known business has incorporated the bright material by having its very own tartan pelmets produced which hang in the windows of the shop and tearoom. Their popular mascot, Moorial the Coo, has also been taking part in the Tartan Day celebrations, sporting her very own, custom-made Aberdeenshire Tartan: Home Colours rosette.
The Provost of Aberdeenshire, Jill Webster, hopes other Aberdeenshire entrepreneurs will have similarly creative ideas.
"The tartan lends itself to a wide variety of uses and we hope that it will be embraced by businesses across Aberdeenshire," she said.


"The injury was a mystery. In 1988, I had a rotator cuff surgery. I never had problems after that. Then this past winter, I hurt the shoulder pushing snow off the car with a long-handled broom. My physical therapist started treating me with electric stimulation, heat and ultrasound. Then in April, he suggested a cortisone injection. It didn't help much and they suggested another injection. Right after that I had terrific pain in the shoulder and couldn't do anything. I had no strength in my arm.
An MRI showed a massive tear of my rotator cuff and the doctors recommended surgery. I wanted to do anything but operating on it.
My wife did some research about stem cells, which I had heard about. I had PRP injections in my knee before, too. My PT knows everyone, and he suggested StemCell ARTS. They're the people to go to, and the most experienced and competent stem cell doctors around.

Q: Why I'm getting that I have a strings while I'm working with integers? Hello guys I'm new to python and I'm trying to solve this exercise
where I have a student IDs and their score in a file and I should make the dictionary whose keys are the ID and values are grade and then print the frequency of the grades (ex: A:7 etc..)
score and grade mappings are as follows: -- 90 - 100 : A -- 80 - 89 : B -- 70 - 79 : C -- 60 - 69 : D -- 0 - 59 : E
I'm working with integers only but I'm still getting the error ('>=' not supported between instances of 'str' and 'int')so what's wrong with my code?
from collections import defaultdict
gradedict = {}
with open("scorelist.txt") as f:
    for line in f:
      (id, score) = line.split()
      gradedict[int(id)] = int(score)
for id,score in gradedict.items():
  if val>=90:
    print(id,score,"A")
  elif 80<score<89:
    print(id,score,"B")
  elif 70<score<79:
    print(id,score,"C")
  elif 60<val<69:
    print(id,score,"D")
  elif 0<score<59:
    print(id,score,"E")
print(gradedict)
frequency = {}
for grade in ['A','B','C','D','E']:
  frequency[grade] = ['A','B','C','D','E'].count(grade)
print(frequency)

A: You probably need to specify that val is an integer:
gradedict[int(key)] = int(val)

A: The problem occurs in line #5:
with open("scorelist.txt") as f:
    for line in f:
       (key, val) = line.split()

In very simple terms, split() is basically a string method. So, when you do line.split(), "line" is considered as a string, and the split() function then separates the string into multiple parts based on the default separator, whitespace (or just a space). These separated components (which are still strings) get assigned to key and val.
In your scorelist.txt document, each line is considered a string, because each line contains a whitespace.
To resolve this, you can modify your code and specify that you want the integer form of val, since val still contains a string (even though that string is numeric).
 for line in f:
       (key, val) = line.split()
       gradedict[int(key)] = int(val)

What's interesting is that you've already done this for key in your code, but you perhaps forgot to convert val into an int.

A: Check if this is working,replace val with score
 from collections import defaultdict
    ...: gradedict = {}
    ...: try:
    ...:   with open("scorelist.txt") as f:
    ...:     for line in f:
    ...:       (id, score) = line.split()
    ...:       gradedict[int(id)] = int(score)
    ...: except:
    ...:     pass
    ...: for id,score in gradedict.items():
    ...:   if score>=90:
    ...:     print(id,score,"A")
    ...:   elif 80<score<89:
    ...:     print(id,score,"B")
    ...:   elif 70<score<79:
    ...:     print(id,score,"C")
    ...:   elif 60<score<69:
    ...:     print(id,score,"D")
    ...:   elif 0<score<59:
    ...:     print(id,score,"E")
    ...: print(gradedict)
    ...: frequency = {}
    ...: for grade in ['A','B','C','D','E']:
    ...:   frequency[grade] = ['A','B','C','D','E'].count(grade)

National Telecom Policy 2012
admin_2 - July 2, 2012
The National Telecom Policy was adopted by the cabinet on May 31, 2012. It was released in public domain later in June. Among other things, the policy aims to provide a single licence framework, un-bundle spectrum from licences, and liberalise spectrum. Previously, the central government had decided to unbundle spectrum and licenses for all future licences on January 29, 2011. TRAI too in its recommendation dated May 11, 2010 and April 23, 2012 sought to de-link spectrum from licences. The Supreme Court in the 2G judgment had held that spectrum should not be allocated on a first-cum-first-serve basis and should instead be auctioned. In the April 23 recommendations, TRAI has detailed the mechanism for auctioning spectrum. TRAI has also recommended moving to a unified licence framework under which a single licence would be required to provide any telecom service. It has also recommended that spectrum should be liberalised so that any technology could be used to exploit it. The new policy is in line with the government decisions and TRAI recommendations discussed above. The policy also aims to achieve higher connectivity and quality of telecommunication services. Its key features are detailed below.
Licensing: Presently, as per the 2003 Amendment to the 1999 Telecom Policy, there are two forms of licences – Unified Service Licence (to provide any telegraph service in various geographical areas) and Unified Access Service Licence (to provide basic and cellular services in defined service areas). The new policy targets simplification of licensing framework by establishing a unified license for all telecom services and conversion to a single-license system for the entire country. It also seeks to remove roaming charges.
Spectrum: As of now spectrum bands are reserved on the basis of technology that may be used to exploit them. For instance, the 900 and 1800 bands are reserved for GSM technology and 800 for use of CDMA technology. The new policy seeks to liberalise spectrum. Further, spectrum would be de-linked from all future licenses. Spectrum would be refarmed so that it is available to be used for new technology. The policy aims to move to a system where spectrum can be pooled, shared and traded. Periodic audits of spectrum usage would be conducted to ensure efficient utilization of spectrum. The policy aims at making 300 MHz of additional spectrum available for mobile telecom services by the year 2017 and another 200 MHz by 2020.
Connectivity: The policy aims to increase rural tele-density from the current level of approximately 39% to 70% by 2017, and 100% by 2020. It seeks to provide 175 million broadband connections by the year 2017 and 600 million by 2020 at a minimum 2 Mbps download speed. Higher download speeds of 100 Mbps would be made available on demand. Broadband access to all village panchayats would be made available by 2014 and to all villages by 2020. The policy aims to recognise telecom, including broadband connectivity, as a basic necessity like education and health, and work towards the 'Right to Broadband'.
Promotion of domestic industry: The policy seeks to incentivise and give preference to domestic telecom products in procurements that (i) have security implications for India; or (ii) are for the government's own use. It also seeks to establish a Telecom Finance Corporation to mobilise and channelise finances for telecom projects.
Legislations: The policy seeks to review the TRAI Act to remove impediments to effective functioning of TRAI. It also seeks to review the Indian Telegraph Act, 1885. The need to review the Indian Telegraph Act, 1885 was also recognised in the 1999 Telecom Policy.
The policy as adopted can be accessed here.

At the recent auction in Hong Kong of Sotheby's Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings, Ronald Ventura broke the record of another Filipino artist. The "Grayground" painting by Ventura was sold at HK$ 8,420,000.
The graphite, oil, and acrylic on canvas piece, which measures 60 inches by 155 3/4 inches (nearly four meters long), set a new auction record and beat Filipina artist Geraldine Javier's oil-on-canvas Ella Amo' Apasionadamente y Fue Correspondida (For She Loved Fiercely, And She is Well Loved), which raked in HK$1,460,000 in an auction last year.
It is nice to see a very good indicator of how talented Filipino Artists are, and how are we doing in the global art scene, especially in modern and contemporary art.

Defense Lawyer Asks to Quit 9/11 Case, Amid Murky Investigation – The New York Times
March 11, 2022 149 views0
A defense lawyer who has spent a decade on the Guantánamo case abruptly sought to resign amid an in-house investigation.
By Carol Rosenberg
GUANTÁNAMO BAY, Cuba — A long-serving death penalty defense lawyer for one of the five men accused of plotting the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks has asked to be removed from the case, stirring new uncertainty about when the trial might begin.
It is ultimately up to the trial judge to decide whether the lawyer, Cheryl Bormann, or any defense lawyer can resign. If she is allowed to leave, the judge could be confronted with the conundrum of whether to slow or halt pretrial proceedings until her replacement is hired and brought up to speed.
Or the judge could decide that the man she represents, Walid bin Attash, be tried separately as an accused conspirator in the attacks, which killed nearly 3,000 people.
Ms. Bormann first appeared at the court in May 2012 for the arraignment of Mr. bin Attash and the four other accused plotters, including Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the accused mastermind of the attack. The only female capital defense lawyer on the case, she drew attention by wearing a head scarf and a black abaya, a traditional robe worn by women in Saudi Arabia, where her client grew up.
In time, most other women working on the defense teams would follow her example and cover their hair; some also wore loosefitting clothing, in what they have described as a sign of respect for the religion of the men, whom they consider to be victims of C.I.A. torture. The attire has angered some relatives of Sept. 11 victims, who interpreted the gesture as submissiveness to the accused terrorists.
It is not clear why Ms. Bormann abruptly resigned. But she recently filed a court pleading that disclosed that her "performance and conduct" were under investigation by the Military Commissions Defense Organization, the Pentagon office that provides resources and lawyers to military commissions case.
Ms. Bormann said that she could not ethically represent the prisoner while the investigation was underway and asked that hearings this month be canceled. Instead, the judge, Col. Matthew N. McCall, has postponed the start of the hearings until March 21.
The judge gave lawyers and prosecutors until next week to file pleadings on whether he should release Ms. Bormann from the case.
Before Guantánamo, she practiced capital defense in Chicago, where she gained a reputation as a dogged fighter at the Cook County public defender's homicide task force. She joined the war court bar after Gov. Pat Quinn of Illinois abolished the death penalty in 2011, and has used the plain-spoken language of a death-penalty defender in court arguments to make clear what is at stake.
"This is a case where the government seeks to kill Mr. bin Attash and these other four men," Ms. Bormann reminded the judge in November. Defense lawyers were pressing Colonel McCall to order the government to release more information from the C.I.A.'s so-called black sites, where the Sept. 11 defendants were held and tortured before their transfer to Guantánamo in 2006.
She has referred to prosecutors as "the government that wants to kill him." At one point, protesting the limited hours she could spend with her client, Ms. Bormann noted that "no exception is made for a commissions attorney who is defending a man where the government wants to kill him."
At the heart of the issue confronting the judge is that Ms. Bormann serves as a so-called learned counsel, a lawyer with specific skills and experience in defending people at death-penalty trials. By law, each defendant in a capital case at Guantánamo is entitled to a learned counsel.
But no replacement is waiting in the wings, said Brig. Gen. Jackie L. Thompson Jr. of the Army. As the chief defense counsel for military commissions, he can hire lawyers for Guantánamo cases but does not have authority to fire them. He oversaw the investigation of Ms. Bormann.
Neither General Thompson nor Ms. Bormann would elaborate on the substance of the investigation.
"My ongoing concern for Mr. bin Attash prevents me from commenting," she said.
The general said that he had taken no actions against Ms. Bormann in light of the investigation and that she still had security clearances and full access to her offices. Ms. Bormann met with the judge on Monday; her team members have twice met with him separately, once with Mr. bin Attash. General Thompson said that the judge "has what he needs" to decide whether to let her go.
In his view, he said, the other lawyers on her team — three civilians and two members of the military — do not qualify as learned counsel.
After the learned counsel for another defendant, Ramzi bin al-Shibh, obtained permission to leave the case in 2020 because of a heart condition, the Pentagon took several months to hire, fund and obtain security clearances for the new lawyer, David I. Bruck.
Mr. Bruck, one of the nation's top capital defenders, said no five-person capital case had been tried to verdict in the modern history of the death penalty and asked for 30 months to prepare. The request was never ruled upon because the Guantánamo court was closed for more than 500 days because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Anti-parasite Drugs and the Nobel Prize for Medicine
October 8, 2015 | by Walter Jessen
The 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was announced earlier this week [1]. The prize was awarded to three scientists who developed therapies by looking at natural, local substances, against parasitic infections.
The prize of 8-million-Swedish-krona ($1.2-million USD) was divided, with one half jointly to Drs. William C. Campbell, age 85, at Drew University in Madison, New Jersey, USA, and Satoshi Omura, age 80, at Kitasato University in Tokyo, Japan, for their work on a novel therapy against infections caused by roundworm parasites, and the other half to Dr. Youyou Tu, age 85, at the China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Beijing, China, for her work on a novel therapy against Malaria.
Activation of the Immune System and the Nobel Prize for Medicine
The 2011 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was announced on Monday. The prize was awarded to three scientists for their work on the body's immune system.
The prize of 10-million-Swedish-krona (US$1.5-million) was divided, one half jointly to Bruce A. Beutler, age 54, at The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, California, and Jules A. Hoffmann, age 70, at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) Institute of Cell and Molecular Biology in Strasbourg, for their discovery of receptor proteins that can recognize bacteria and other microorganisms and activate innate immunity, and the other half to Ralph M. Steinman, age 68, at Rockefeller University in New York, for his discovery of dendritic cells of the immune system and their unique capacity to activate and regulate adaptive immunity, the later stage of the immune response during which microorganisms are cleared from the body.
