The meeting discussed the draft Progress Report, see the download here, on the current EU Action Plan on Environment and Health (EHAP) 2004-2010, which is currently going through interservice consultation and should be adopted by the new Commission in the coming months. The EHAP comes to an end by the end of the year 2010, and the meeting therefore also identified priorities for a second action plan. The current troika of EU presidencies (Spain, Belgium, Hungary) have made this a priority.
Many of the advocacy priorities presented by WECF and also by HEAL (Health & Environment Alliance) were overwhelmingly supported by member states (biomonitoring, indoor air quality, climate change and the need of better and quicker translation of science to policy), and the need to link to the wider WHO process. Some of the single issues that we have called for more action on – endocrine disrupters, electromagnetic fields and the cost of inaction -- were also mentioned by many member states and appear in the minutes.
WHO pointed out that a specific reference on the need to continue working on vulnerable groups such as children, or inequalities in environmental health, was missing. The official minutes from the meeting are available on the DG Environment website, and a summary is presented below. It is anticipated that Council Conclusions will be adopted during the Belgian EU Presidency in the second half of the year.
The Progress Report was strongly welcomed by the Consultative Forum. The participants expressed their positive surprise about the amount of Commission's activities related to Environment & Health carried out since 2004 and asked the Commission to communicate better about its activities. The suggestion was made to the Commission to produce a regular newsletter for disseminating information on Environment & Health issues. Some Member States insisted that the Progress Report should highlight the added value that the EU Action Plan for Environment & Health brought to the Member States, notably in being a major driver for the development of some national Environment & Health Action Plans. Integration was also identified as a major potential benefit to be obtained from the E&H Action Plan, but so far insufficiently realized.
The discussion on the priorities for the next Action Plan identified climate change & health, indoor air quality and human bio-monitoring as clear priorities. Furthermore, several participants stressed that the science-policy interface in Environment & Health should be improved and that specific efforts should be made to facilitate the transfer of research results to policy making.
the need to address single issues such as endocrine disrupters, antimicrobial resistance, electromagnetic fields.
WHO pointed out that the issue of Environment & Health inequalities – which will be prominent in the Parma Conference – is completely missing. It also expressed the wish to ensure more convergence between the WHO and the EU processes. Several Member States also said that the current Action Plan was prevented from achieving much more by the lack of dedicated human and financial resources. They said that a stronger political commitment was absolutely necessary in the future.
Some small Member States asked for more attention to be given to networking as a means to exchange information on Environment & Health and to provide access to valuable expertise. A number of stakeholders also insisted on the need to provide more data and evidence.

Earthquake in Italy: the wooden chalets
On Wednesday 24 August 2016, a powerful and devastating earthquake hit Italy, 10 kilometers southeast of Norcia (in central Italy) at 3:36 in the morning.
The Italian Civil Protection Agency has confirmed the death of 293 people, particularly in the town of Amatrice, Accumoli and Arquata del Tronto located in the Italian Apennine mountains.
Last Sunday 28 August , Italian Prime Minister Mr Matteo Renzi discussed the reconstruction plan with Mr Renzo Piano, one of most renowned architects.
In particular, the Italian authorities are facing the major challenge of getting survivors into safe and warm accommodations before the winter. This is why, as reported by the Italy's "Corriere della Sera" newspaper and "La Stampa", wooden huts would be erected, likely close to people's damaged or destroyed homes. These wooden "mini-chalets" will be built within three months. The wooden chalets will have one or two bedrooms, a kitchen and bathroom, costing €1,400 per square metre. A small hut of 40 sq m would cost about €55,000, Corriere della Sera reported.
The information provided by the Corriere della sera included also a video on the online Corriere TV , showing that "a 7 floors wooden house (24 meters high) , entirely made of solid wood panels (cross-laminated - X lam ) and built in the laboratories of the research centre Ivalsa Cnr of San Michele all'Adige ( Trento ) successfully resisted the seismic tests related to the simulation of the Kobe earthquake (magnitude 7.2 on the Richter scale), which in 1995 caused the death of more than six thousand people."

Regardless of the construction material that the Italian Government will decide to use to re-build the cities of Amatrice, Accumoli and Arquata del Tronto, EOS hopes that the survivors might receive as soon as possible new homes where to continue their life.

Prepare To Get Your Groove On
The History of Funk
"Funk is the absence of any and everything you can think of, but the very essence of all that is. And saying that, I'm saying funk is anything that we create in our minds that we want to do, what we want to be, but we don't have the resources." — Bootsy Collins
Let's Funk It Up
Throughout time, music has been used as a way to connect people, express feelings, and tell stories. This week's newsletters will highlight some of the most well-known and little-known musicians, music facts, and genres. Today's theme: Funk.
We recently discovered a local band that incorporates some funky, groovy rhythms in their music.
Not only does the music make you want to get out of your seat and dance, but the lyrics also hit home. Most notably (and echoing the words of Bono):
"Joy is an act of defiance,
Love is the thing that provides it."
– "On My Way" by Kiwano Sour
In a world trying to suck us into a narrative of fear, uncertainty, and doubt… in a world where our minds have been conditioned to live off the nourishment of negative feedback loops… in a world where the infinite is eternally chased while the finite lays unappreciated…
Joy truly is an act of defiance.
One form of music stands out among the rest for really embracing the joy of living.
Funk.
No matter the topic of the song, funk music always seems to celebrate life for what it is — and no matter what, you want to get out of your seat and get groovin'. 🕺🕺
But where'd it all start?
Like with rock, pop, and hip-hop, funk originated from a mix of jazz, blues, and R&B.
It emerged as its own genre in the late '60s when soul singer James Brown started experimenting with his music. His '69 hit, "Cold Sweat," is usually referred to as the first ever funk song.
(Side Note: Can we PLEASE bring back that puffy hair and super deep v-neck look… 😎)
So what separated funk music from the rest of the bumpin' tunes of the time?
Funk is based on a unique onbeat/offbeat structure that originated in African music traditions. Using guitar riffs and bass lines, funk creates an intense groove. (More here.)
After James Brown, George Clinton is considered the architect of the type of funk we know today. His bands were Parliament and Funkadelic and their "P-Funk" style used distorted electric guitars and synthesizers to create a new type of sound.
In the 1970s, funk became mainstream and artists like the Commodores, Sly and the Family Stone, Bootsy's Rubber Band, and Kool and the Gang, among others, grew in popularity. Around this time, disco music emerged, drawing strongly from frunk.
In the 80s, folks like Rick James and Prince took over the funk scene. After that, however, funk was mostly driven from the radio in favor of new pop and rock music. Even still, popular artists, like Red Hot Chili Peppers, Living Colour, Incubus, Outkast, and Gnarls Barkley, incorporated elements of funk.
Today, it's argued that funk is dead, or at least, the funk of the olden days. There may never be another "Super Freak," "Brick House," or "Play That Funky Music White Boy"… but funk influence has certainly made its way into much of our modern music. ("Uptown Funk," anyone?)
Funk subgenres, like electro-funk, boogie, funk rock, and funk jam, still inspire artists around the world.
Need to get your boogie on? Here are the best funk songs of all time according to Billboard.
Foundations of Funk: The Birth of a Genre
"Funk was born from the influence of many genres: jazz, R&B, soul, and African grooves. It existed in an early form in New Orleans since the mid-1900s. Over the decades it has influenced jazz, R&B and soul music in return, and it gave birth to the entire genre of hip-hop. But despite its multiple points of origin, funk is often traced back to the work of one man."
Grab Those Dancing Shoes
Modern Tunes That Will Make You Groove
Funk might not be the same as it was, but here are some modern bands that carrying forward the groovin' torch:
Busty and the Bass
Kiwano Sour (mentioned above)
The Main Squeeze
And for a throwback to the classics, check out this playlist: Funk Outta Here

Weber State University
Home|Weber State University
Ogden, UT
This 38,000 square foot facility includes 26 sky suites, club seating, a press box facility for media and game operations as well as meeting and banquet spaces. In addition to collegiate sports, the facility hosts many campus events, community meetings, weddings, dances and other outside events.
Stewart Stadium seats 17,500 fans and is also the home of the Weber State Athletic Department offices, as well as the coaching offices for football, track and field and volleyball. The facility also features a study area specifically for all WSU student-athletes. Full football locker rooms and new training rooms also add to the amenities of the stadium.
Located on a hillside above the city of Ogden, and with the waters of the Great Salt Lake shimmering in the distance, there are few stadiums anywhere which can match the natural surroundings as well as Elizabeth Dee Shaw Stewart Stadium located on the campus of Weber State University. With recent improvements and upgrades, Stewart Stadium is now one of the finest stadiums in all of Division I FCS football.


Saying "you haven't seen anything like this" is an understatement. This may not be for the casual moviegoer, as it's a tad out there, but for the "looks-a-bit-past-the-surface" movie buff, it will surely grab your attention and make you wish you could see it right this instant.
Starring Paul Dano (Little Miss Sunshine, Love & Mercy) as a castaway on a deserted island about to give up, and Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter, The Woman In Black) as a corpse that washes up on the beach—giving him a companion (think Tom Hanks' "Wilson" in Castaway)—and reigniting his desire to make it home, A24's latest indie-comedy/deranged fantasy, Swiss Army Man looks to be an unforgettable watch. To add to the head-scratching, the movie's also scored by Manchester Orchestra.
This reminds me of reading an introspective book where the character is losing their mind and wondering how that inner psychosis could be translated to film in an effective way. These directors (Dan Kwan, Daniel Scheinert) seem to have nailed it in a new, fresh and farty way (Radcliffe's corpse is intensely gassy throughout the entire trailer).
The film is due out on June 17 and is sure to be one of the more talked about films of the summer. Check out the trailer below and let us know how you feel about it!


To describe what it is that I do isn't always easy. If you asked members of my family what I do for a living, there's no telling what they'd say. One might say, "computer stuff" while another could say, "he's a teacher" or "he makes web pages." What I do is more than any of those alone.
I'm the type of person who likes to see the "big picture" in my career. In other words, I have a lot of interests and talents that most people see as separate but that I see as working together.
If you are a potential client who is looking for contractor with a narrow focus and equally narrow vision, then I'm not the person you want to talk to. But if you are in desperate need of a professional with the willingness to face a wide array of situations and the desire to help you find the best solution for your current needs, then I challenge you to find someone more qualified!

Then we bring in Alisa who shared some common misconceptions about credit, such as the fact that older bills, collections and bankruptcy might not affect your credit score as much as you think. Alisa also pointed that Realtors also suffer from these misconceptions because they miss out on the opportunity to show potential clients how to raise their credit score and may even mis-advise clients to wait who could qualify for a loan with a little help and guidance.
Alisa also shared her unique background story, which included working in comedy talent booking, moving to HBO and eventually becoming a producer on Politically Incorrect w/Bill Mahr. Alisa took her love of comedy and good sense of humor with her into business, including speaking events and workshops, and she's writing a book to spread her Color My Credit concepts.

In Australia, there are public and private hospitals. Public hospitals most often provide short-term care for acute cases or rehabilitation. Private hospitals are owned by private organisations, some of which are non-profit based. In 2010-11 half of the 1,340 hospitals in Australia were public hospitals.
All Australian citizens and also permanent residents are entitled to free public hospital cover but under the Medicare system must first be referred by their GP. Overseas visitors from all countries that have a reciprocal health agreement with Australia should also be able to access Medicare benefitshowever, this does not include non-urgent or on going medical treatment. Visitors from other countries not with reciprocal arrangements with Australia must have insurance to cover any hospital related expenses. They will otherwise be liable to pay for their own treatment, which can be expensive.
Private hospitals provide 40% of all hospital treatments in Australia and in a private hospital you are entitled to your choice of doctor. Subject to intake, you may be lucky enough to get your own room. Medicare will cover 75% of the Medicare schedule of fees for services and procedures which are provided by your doctor in a private hospital but will not coverthe hospital accommodation costs and extras such as theatre fees and medicines. These costs will be covered by private health insurance or by the patient.


The aim of the European Union's transport policy is to promote mobility that is efficient, safe, secure and environmentally friendly. 25,500 people lost their lives on EU roads in 2016. While this represents a significant improvement compared to the past (for example 56,000 people died in road traffic accidents in the EU in 2000) the objective is to continue to reduce fatalities and serious injuries on the road.
Road infrastructure safety management procedures aim to ensure the safety of existing and planned roads. Safe roads have a key role to play in improving road safety, together with safe vehicles and safe drivers, as part of the Safe System approach. Well designed and properly maintained roads can reduce the probability of road traffic accidents happening and can also reduce the severity of accidents that do happen.
There are many factors that influence the safety of road infrastructure. These factors include road design, the visibility and readability of road markings and road signs (for both human drivers and the cameras and sensors used in advanced driver assistance systems), the use of appropriate road equipment such as guard rails and crash cushions, traffic control and traffic calming measures and other safety improvements on existing road infrastructure.
The EU regulatory framework for road infrastructure safety management is composed of two Directives: Directive 2008/96/EC on road infrastructure safety management (the Road Infrastructure Directive) and Directive 2004/54/EC on minimum safety requirements for tunnels in the trans-European road network (the Tunnel directive).
The current EU legislation covers roads and tunnels within the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T), which is a network of main European roads (primarily motorways and national/main roads). (Map of the TEN-T network).
The existing Road Infrastructure Directive defines rather general guidelines and best practices for all stages of road infrastructure planning, development and operations without imposing specific technical standards or technical measures on Member States. The main management instruments set out in the Directive are road safety impact assessments (strategic analysis at the planning stage), road safety audits (from design to early operation), road network safety management (regular safety rankings and follow-up at high accident locations) and safety inspections (periodic checks at particular locations).
The Tunnel Directive aims to prevent the occurrence of fires and accidents in tunnels and to provide improved protection of road tunnel users in case of accidents. The Directive defines organisational and technical requirements that need to be fulfilled in order to provide a minimum level of safety in road tunnels longer than 500 metres that are part of the trans-European road network.
The effects of the implementation of the two Directives were assessed in two separate ex-post evaluations that were completed in 2015. The evaluation studies also indicated that there were areas for potential improvements in the field of road infrastructure safety.
Please note that in addition to answering the survey questions respondents also have the option of uploading relevant documents.
This consultation will last for 12 weeks. Questionnaires should be returned by 10 September 2017 at the very latest.
All interested stakeholders are welcome to participate in this consultation.
The first section is obligatory for all respondents, collecting information about the respondent and asking for the right to publish the information.
The second section is designed to gather input from a broad public audience on the general functioning of the Directives and the need for continued EU action in this field.
The European Commission has launched an impact assessment process with a view to the possible revision of the EU road infrastructure safety management and road tunnel safety legislation. This on-line public consultation is organised to allow interested stakeholders and citizens to express their views on this as part of the impact assessment process.
All such contributions will be analysed, reported on and considered in the evaluation.

AC Milan have announced the signing of Mark van Bommel, a deal that will see the Dutch dreadnought move to the San Siro 'with immediate effect' after Bayern Munich agreed to terminate his dwindling contract.
At a mere 33-years-old, it is thought that Van Bommel will initially be inducted into Milan's youth setup to mature for a couple of years, before finally being allowed to join up with senior side on his 35th birthday.
Their quest for finding and developing the youth never ceases to amaze.
And yet another aging midfielder.
Youthful prospect at best. He still has plenty years to show what he's capable of.
Which is what, fouling and complaining to the ref the entire game.
great player, and a good move to the serie A, where the game is slightly less intense.
Better than letting him go on a free transfer. Do you get another Dutch thug to replace him?
AC Milan continues to amass goons in their squad.


Most people have recently found an increased interest in alternative medicines for cancer treatment, thanks to rising mortality rates and adverse side effects following chemotherapy and radiotherapy. An alternative believed to possess anti-cancer properties are ajwa dates (Phoenix dactylifera L.). In a study published in the journal BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine, ajwa date extracts were found to preserve liver function in cancer patients.
Researchers at King Abdulaziz University in Saudi Arabia looked at the anti-cancer effects and other beneficial properties of ajwa dates in a rat model of diethylnitrosamine (DEN) induced liver cancer. Thirty-two male mice were used in the study, where they were randomly assigned into four groups: the untreated control group; DEN control group; DEN with 0.5 grams per kilogram (g/kg) body weight; and DEN with 1 g/kg body weight. Then, they evaluated liver cancer progression or inhibition in mice.
From the results, researchers observed partial to complete restoration of normal liver structure in both mice groups treated with the ajwa date extracts. The treated group also exhibited an increase in antioxidant enzymes while liver enzymes, such as alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase levels, and lipid peroxidation were reduced.
The ajwa date extract increased the anti-tumor cytokines and significantly reduced tumors in mice. According to the researchers, these benefits could be due to the presence of flavonoids, including luteolin, apigenin, quercetin, and proanthocyanidins, which contain many polyphenolic compounds.
The findings of the study suggested that after the treatment of ajwa date extracts, the antioxidant enzymes, liver enzymes, cytokine balance, and gene expression were restored to normal levels. Following the study results, the researchers concluded that ajwa date extracts improved liver function and prevented the progression of liver cancer.
Dates are healthy because they are free from cholesterol and only contain low amounts of fat, helping in cholesterol levels maintenance and losing weight.

Music for Mystro: Rev Room holds benefit concert for sound board master's health expenses
by Sean Clancy | November 18, 2021 at 6:39 a.m.
Mystro has run the sound booth at Stickyz Rock 'n' Roll Chicken Shack for 20 years. A benefit concert, The Mystro Show, featuring Tragikly White, Bad Habit and deFrance with Wes Jeans, takes place Friday to raise money to help pay for expenses incurred during his recent health problems. (Arkansas Democrat-Gazette/Cary Jenkins)
He is Mystro, with a y just to be different, and don't bother asking about any other name.
"You ain't getting that," he says firmly. "I used to have a sound company and did a lot of outdoor festivals and people knew me as Mystro. I've actually gotten checks [made out to Mystro] from the city of Cleveland. Had a helluva time getting them to go through."
Since 2001, he has worked his wizardry behind the soundboard at Stickyz Rock 'n' Roll Chicken Shack in Little Rock, controlling the sound as bands perform onstage. From rock and funk to rap and country and blues to folk and beyond; from garage band punks and local heroes to international legends, Mystro has seen them all.
He shows the musicians where to park their vans or buses, helps them load in, oversees soundchecks, crafts the way their music comes through the club's speakers during their sets, runs the stage lights then helps them load out at the end of the evening.
"I'm probably the only really true house engineer in the state," he says.
"Mystro is always early," says Chris King who, along with Suzon Awbrey owns Stickyz and Rev Room, which is a few blocks west on President Clinton Avenue. "He's here from [before bands arrive] and then he's watching them drive off."
About four years ago, Mystro began having health problems. He's on dialysis now, and there are other ailments.
"I've come close to dying a couple of times," he says.
On Friday, Tragikly White, Bad Habit and deFrance, featuring Texas blues guitarist Wes Jeans, are hitting the stage at Rev Room for the Mystro Show, a fundraiser to help offset health care costs for the longtime sound man and Little Rock music scene fixture.
Sam Bennett is the 18-year-old drummer for Bad Habit.
"We're a pretty young band and we've been playing at Stickyz for four or five years now," Sam says. "I think Mystro was sort of intrigued by us when we first started playing there. He can be a tough crowd, if you will, so if he takes a liking to you, it's a really good thing. He will do whatever he can to help you out."
In the spirit of helping out, Sam's brother, Bad Habit singer-guitarist Jack Bennett, came up with the idea for the Mystro Show.
"We just wanted to do a night of rock 'n' roll where people can hear three great bands and all proceeds go to help Mystro," Sam says.
"It's going to be a big party," says deFrance guitarist, singer and namesake Drew deFrance. "We're really good friends. I have so much respect for the guy. He's run sound for Aretha Franklin ... he's absolutely legendary."
FRIDAY AFTERNOON
It's a Friday afternoon in late October and Stickyz is mostly empty as Mystro sits at a table with King. In a couple hours he will help country singer Bri Bagwell set up for her show. Right now, he's talking about his life in music.
Originally from Ohio, Mystro was a drummer, doing session work at a Beachwood, Ohio, studio called the Recording Connection, where some of the clients included the Dazz Band and Gladys Knight and the Pips. He also attended classes there on studio production and engineering.
"They were called the Midnight Connection because classes started at midnight," he says. "It worked out for me because I was doing gigs, either working sound or playing drums."
He had his own 14-piece band — "I like horns," he smiles — for about 15 years and also spent time on the road with the O'Jays and the Ohio Players. He still loves the drums, however.
"If my health wasn't bad, I'd still be playing drums," he says. "I was a hard-hitting drummer."
For a while he was managing The Mad Hatter, an Akron, Ohio, nightclub. He had a sound system business with locations in Cleveland and Akron, worked gigs as a DJ and managed bands, including a heavy metal group called Shadow Play and Cleveland R&B outfit The Rude Boys, who were signed to Atlantic Records from 1989-1993.
The Rude Boys were on tour when Mystro left to come to Little Rock to work under contract as the house sound man at Smitty's.
Mystro and Chris King (Arkansas Democrat-Gazette/Cary Jenkins)
LANDED AT STICKYZ
Stickyz opened in 2000, and was in need of a sound man in late 2001. Mystro remembers ducking into Midtown Billiards to pick up a burger one night and talking to Stickyz bartender Jon Butcher.
"He said, 'Man, we've been looking all over for you,'" Mystro recalls.
"Mystro and I had a meeting around the first of November, 2001" King says, realizing during the late October interview that an anniversary was on the horizon. "It will literally be 20 years next week. Outside of his health [issues] he's been at every single show. His record is impeccable. I can't tell you how many of our touring acts have expressed interest in taking him on the road with them."
DeFrance has a story about Mystro's reputation.
"I was doing a show in Gateshead, England. I was playing with Steve Earle and the Dukes and Brandi Carlile's band was there, too. I used to know these guys in Austin. I was talking to them — members of the Dukes and Brandi Carlile's band — and they were like, 'Oh, yeah, Little Rock, right. How's Mystro doing?' That happens all over. Anybody who has ever played Stickyz, Mystro has run sound for them at some point in their career."
As referenced by Sam Bennett, Mystro runs a tight ship. Mystro tells the story of a Fayetteville musician who complained about the way he spoke to him before a gig. The musician's wife let him know that Mystro was simply telling him what he needed to hear.
A FIGHTER
Mystro will not countenance half measures when it comes to performance.
"This is a business," Mystro says. "People pay good money to come in here."
Ailments sent him back to the hospital in September and forced him to miss shows.
"I'm a fighter," he says. "I said, 'this is not happening.' I'm telling you, laying up in that hospital bed, I felt terrible. Laying in the bed will kill you. I got some nurses to help me walk up and down the hall."
He now keeps an oxygen tank near his sound booth, though he hasn't had to use it yet, and has a bigger tank at home.
"I feel alright," he says about his health. "I'm just a little short-winded."
Mystro rolls his eyes when asked if he will be working the show Friday.
King laughs.
"I'm not even going to be in the building," Mystro says. "I'll be right here."
"You'll be down there," King says. "We'll have a seat for you. People will want to come by and shake your hand."
Mystro rolls his eyes again, the matter still not totally settled.
How much longer does he think he will keep working?
"As long as I can get on my feet and my health allows me to function," he says. "I'm not going to stop. That's when you drop."

'I have sometimes found in a song of Tennyson the most fitting garment of a thought engendered by a generalisation of Science.' 1 —Richard Owen, 1859
'[T]here is a community establishing itself between literature and science, and I rejoice in that community […] for the highest aim of science and literature, is the same; it is to diffuse, to reveal and to embody truth.' 2 —Thomas Henry Huxley, 1860
'Presented rightly to the mind, the discoveries and generalisations of modern science constitute a poem more sublime than has ever yet addressed the human imagination. The natural philosopher today may dwell amid conceptions which beggar those of Milton.' 3 —John Tyndall, 1863
Charles Darwin and Alfred, Lord Tennyson were exact contemporaries, born in 1809, who came to have emblematic roles as representatives, respectively, of science and literature in the Victorian age. Their juxtaposition in this volume of essays is indicative of the easy commerce between literature and science during that period and provides a salutary reminder that the two categories need to be understood within their historical context rather than assumed to be transhistorical absolutes. Readers of Darwin and Tennyson included all the significant thinkers of the day, in every field. Two – John Ruskin and Thomas Henry Huxley – are given special attention in this collection, in which a range of twentyfirstcentury critics from various literary disciplines address issues raised by the interaction of Victorian literature and science. A brief overview of the historical context suggests that the interpenetration of literature and science in the Victorian period was
everywhere observable. Men of science were fascinated by literature; literary authors were equally drawn to science. At the beginning of Victoria's reign, science was dominated by the 'gentlemen of science', usually Oxbridgeeducated members of the Church of England – men such as Charles Babbage, John Herschel, William Whewell and William Buckland. These men were not in rebellion against William Paley's natural theology, which saw the natural world as full of evidence of God's grand design. Their foundation in 1831 of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, which first gave what might be called a 'public image' to science, was in no way intended as a revolutionary act. Between 1830 and 1833, however, Buckland's student Charles Lyell published his threevolumeGeologyPrinciples of (in which, as a welleducated nineteenth century intellectual, he felt it perfectly appropriate to quote liberally from Byron), and in so doing he gave impetus to ideas which were to revolutionize the imaginations of both Darwin and Tennyson. Darwin took Lyell's first volume with him when he left England on theBeaglein 1831; he had the second sent out to him at Montevideo in 1832; and the third he collected in Valparaiso in July 1834. (He also took with him Milton'sParadise Lost.) Tennyson had certainly read Lyell by 1836 when, in a letter to Richard 4 Monckton Milnes, he paraphrased a section from book II, chapter 18. In 1844 Darwin and Tennyson both read Robert Chambers'sVestiges of the Natural History of Creation, Darwin with disdain, Tennyson initially with a great deal of enthusiasm: he sent his publisher Edward Moxon out to buy a copy as soon as it appeared, declaring, 'it seems to contain many speculations with which I have been familiar for years, and on which I have 5 written more than one poem.' It is these speculations in Tennyson's poetry that the first four essays of the present volume examine. In 1859 the first edition ofOn theSpeciesOrigin of lay in a bookshop window alongside the first edition of the first batch ofIdylls of the King('Guinevere', 'Elaine', 'Vivien', and 'Edith'). The laterIdyllsare shot through with evolutionary ideas: like the postDarwinian novels, they too provide evidence of 'Darwin's plots'.Definitions of 'literature' and 'science' in the discourse of Victorian Britain, as the foregoing would imply, were notoriously fluid, and there was little agreement about their usage. To the Royal Literary Fund in the midcentury, 'science' was still a branch of literature – since 'literature' retained its generous eighteenthcentury usage, in which it included virtually all forms of writing. When Charles Darwin in theOriginenvisions evolutionary change, he does so in explicitly literary terms:
I look at the natural geological record, as a history of the world imperfectly kept and written in a changing dialect; of this history we possess the last volume
alone, relating to one, two or three countries. Of this volume, only here and there a short chapter has been preserved: and of each page, only here and there a few lines. Each word of the slowly changing language, in which the history is supposed to have been written, being more or less different in the interrupted succession of chapters, may represent the apparently abruptly changed forms of 6 life, entombed in our consecutive, but widely separated formations.
The word 'scientist' itself, in something approaching its twentyfirstcentury sense, was only coined in the 1830s by William Whewell, Alfred Tennyson's tutor at Trinity College, Cambridge. Much scientific writing, notably that of John Tyndall, was assumed to possess an imaginative dimension and was subsumed into midVictorian literary culture. Intellectuals such as George Henry Lewes maintained the tradition of the Romantic poets, especially Shelley, in assuming it was possible to preserve a manysidedness: Lewes wrote novels, plays and literary reviews, but he also conducted scientific experiments exploring the physiological basis of the mind, and published five volumes ofLife and MindProblems of 'Mr Darwin's (1874–79). His four reviews of Hypothesis' (1868) had, after all, been praised by Darwin himself, and it was 7 Darwin who had encouraged him to work them into a book. Darwin and Tennyson had both encountered William Paley'sNatural Theology(1802) as students at Cambridge. Later in their careers, they were to be painfully caught up in the eventual and inevitable rupture between science and literature. Tennyson's agonized 'evolutionary stanzas' inIn Memoriamthe phrase 'by the Creator'54–6 and Darwin's uneasy inclusion of in the famous last sentence of thesecond edition of the Origin,are merely the two bestknown of many examples of the authors' involvement.The 'evolutionary naturalists' who formed the second generation of scientific practitioners no longer imagined the natural world as being contained within a religious framework. Men such as Thomas Huxley, Herbert Spencer, Francis Galton and George Henry Lewes, as well as Darwin himself, aimed to build a professional discipline of science that was essentially secular in its underpinning. At the same time, they went on drawing on what, in Matthew Arnold's terms, were the moral and spiritual resources of literature to 8 communicate their discoveries. On the other side, contemporary scientists, particularly Huxley, quickly recognized Tennyson for his ability to synthesise the new ideas of science into lines of poetry which could be understood by a worldwide readership. The lifelong friendship between Tennyson and Huxley is particularly instructive. The two men came to know each other in London in the 1860s, where they were part of a circle including Tyndall, Herschel and Norman Lockyer. Nominated by Huxley in 1864 for a fellowship of the Royal Society,
Tennyson declined, but when the invitation was repeated the following year, he accepted and was introduced to the society on 7 December 1865. Though he rarely attended subsequent meetings, his membership remained culturally significant. Edmund Lushington wrote to Emily Tennyson on 6 April 1866, quoting a recent conversation with Thomas Huxley: Huxley had talked of his 'unbounded admiration' for Tennyson and commented that, 'We scientific 9 men claim him as having quite the mind of a man of science.' In his turn, when he wrote about David Hume in theLettersEnglish Men of series (1879), Huxley was described by thePall Mall Gazette(1886) as being 'hardly less 10 distinguished for culture than for science'. At this point, significantly, it is 'culture' rather than 'literature' which is being constructed as 'not science'. Huxley's public reputation was greater, apparently, than the complementary role implied in the appellation 'Darwin's bulldog'. In conversation with James Addington Symonds in 1865, it was to Huxley rather than to Darwin, that Tennyson attributed the notion of man's descent from apes: 'Huxley says we may have come from monkeys. That makes no difference to me. If it is God's 11 way of creation, He sees the whole, past, present and future, as one.' There is no record of Tennyson's response in 1870 to Darwin'sManDescent of ,although Tennyson's is the only contemporary poetry Darwin quotes in the book. On 17 March 1873, both Huxley and Tyndall called on Tennyson at Farringford on the Isle of Wight. Emily Tennyson's journal comments that 'Mr Huxley seemed to be universal in his interest and to have a keen enjoyment of life.12 He spoke ofIn Memoriamthe 1880s, Matthew Arnold's attacks on Huxley.' By over what should be included in a liberal education were read as evidence of the beginning of a complete rupture between science and literature – a rupture which culminated in the familiar 'two cultures' formulation ofC. P. Snow in the 1960s. It is important to note, however, that Huxley was not himself advocating a move away from literature towards science, but rather a move from the classics to modernity: it was both modern literature and science that he proposed to add to the educational curriculum, at the expense of what he took to be too exclusive a focus on classical languages and literature. Huxley's wellknown tribute to Tennyson (discussed by Rebecca Stott in Chapter 2) suggested his optimism about a future community of literature and science: Tennyson was, he said, 'thefirstpoet since Lucretius who has 13 understood the drift of science'. Immediately after Tennyson's death in 1892, Huxley wrote a subtly different and much more pessimistic version of the tribute: 'He was theonlymodern poet, in fact the only poet since the time of Lucretius, who hastaken the trouble tounderstandthe work and 14 tendency of the men of science'. Huxley also crafted his own fourstanza subTennysonian poem, beginning, 'Bring me my dead!', including lines redolent of its subject such as 'With thoughts that cannot die' and 'Into the

US Navy establishes new helicopter squadron in Florida
October 5, 2021, by Fatima Bahtić
The US Navy has established a new helicopter squadron, Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron (HSM) 50, onboard naval air station Mayport in Florida.
As disclosed, the squadron will be fully equipped with MH-60R Seahawks and will provide expeditionary aviation detachments in support of littoral combat ships and expeditionary independent deployers to meet global force management missions.
The MH-60R Seahawk is used to support a number of operations spanning: anti-submarine warfare, electronic warfare, surface warfare, command and control, non-combat operations, and fleet support for operations and logistics. It can also integrate mission systems with other ships to provide early warning indications of surface contacts and longer range pursuit of subsurface contacts.
"Every member of Valkyries will have a major impact as we establish this squadron from the ground floor and create a strong, resilient, combat-ready unit prepared to deploy MH-60R Detachments to Fight and Win at sea," HSM-50's first commanding officer Carolyn Peterson said.
Peterson, a native of Nashville, Tennessee, served in a number of assignments including tours as an instructor pilot, a helicopter initial shore assignments officer, a Carrier Air Wing MH-60R operational squadron department head, and a joint planning officer in Anchorage, Alaska.
HSM-50 is expected to conduct a formal establishment ceremony in the summer of 2022 and the squadron will fall under Helicopter Maritime Strike Wing Atlantic.

2020 Best Game Story: Ross Dellenger
by Ken • 2020 Best Writing Contest • Tags: Football Writers Association of America, FWAA
Comment of the judge: Writer captures the emotions in LSU's blistering of Oklahoma in a national semifinal that was tinged with tragedy. Great job of telling the story of the day and game that was like no other in LSU history,
By Ross Dellenger
ATLANTA, Ga. — Somewhere in a corner of LSU's locker room here at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Tigers offensive coordinator Steve Ensminger held the hardest phone call of his life. His daughter-in-law, Carley McCord, a 30-year-old TV journalist, had perished Saturday morning in a plane crash in Louisiana while en route to this very place. His son and namesake, Steven Jr., so shaken by the news that family members rushed him to the hospital, lay in a bed in a medicated state, on sedatives, in and out of reality—until dad called.
Just before he took the field for warmups, an hour before he would call plays in his alma mater's biggest game in eight years, Steve Ensminger, for just a brief few minutes, pushed football aside for family. He called his son. He told him that everything would be O.K., that he'd make it through this dark hour. He told him that he loved him and to be strong and have faith.
He also made him a promise. As the call ended, dad told son what was coming next. "The team is behind you, these coaches are behind you," Steven recalls his father saying, "and we are about to go beat Oklahoma's ass for you."
Hours later, with LSU in the midst of a deconstruction of the Sooners, Steven's blood pressure dipped to more normal levels. He emerged from that cloudy state and maybe most importantly, the 30-year old got to watch his father's offense roar in LSU's 63-28 thumping of OU. Quarterback Joe Burrow carved through the Big 12 champs and its defense with such quick ferocity that it almost seemed unfathomable. The Tigers scored a touchdown on eight of their first nine drives, led 49-14 at halftime and finished with 692 yards of offense in one of the most dominant victories in the six-year history of the College Football Playoff.
They're bound for a national championship bout on Jan. 13 in New Orleans with Clemson, a quasi-home game for a team on a magical 2019 run. They're the top-ranked team in the land, have the Heisman Trophy winner at quarterback and haven't lost a game since last November. For a second time in three weeks, LSU brought a Louisiana party to this place, celebrating a playoff win days after claiming the SEC championship here. Garth Brooks' "Callin' Baton Rouge" blared through the stadium speakers, purple-clad LSU fans screamed from the stands and their team, high up on a platform, accepted the Peach Bowl trophy.
And then there was Steve Ensminger, the last assistant coach to arrive on the field for this celebration, having made his way from the press box.
He found wife Amy and then he found head coach Ed Orgeron, the man who had delivered to him the tragic news around lunchtime earlier Saturday. They all embraced in an emotional moment and peculiar scene—tears of sadness surrounded by a celebrating sea. Ensminger, 61, is not any other assistant here. He is a beloved figure, an LSU quarterback under famed coach Charlie McClendon, a country boy raised in the Baton Rouge area with a hilarious twang. He's heralded as an unsung hero of LSU's 2019 season, hidden in the darkness of the looming shadow of 30-year-old pass game coordinator Joe Brady, a former Saints assistant who helped overhaul the Tigers' offense into a spread attack over the offseason.
Without Steve, none of this happens, Brady and others have said. During the first half, ESPN TV cameras flashed on screen Ensminger and Brady in the booth, and when the Tigers went up 42-7 in the second quarter, the two even shared a fist bump. Nothing changed about their normal, two-man play-calling system despite the tragedy, Brady says.
Meanwhile, more than 500 miles away, Steven Ensminger Jr. agreed to a text exchange interview with Sports Illustrated in the second quarter of LSU's win, detailing one of the darkest days of his life and describing that pregame phone call from his father. "I had talked to my mom crying and couldn't get out words and same with my cousin who was my best man in our wedding," Steven says. "The one voice that got on the phone with me that was clear and strong and supportive and confident while I was laying in that bed was my dad right before he walked out for warm-ups. I could barely speak. I couldn't hold myself together and he said, 'Son, you will get through this, it's what we do. We face the darkest times in our lives and it's what we do, we get through it. And I will take care of you and I'll be there for you to keep you strong. You're my one and only son, and my namesake and I love you and I can promise you we will get through this.'"
McCord was one of six passengers on a small private aircraft that left Lafayette, La., around 9 a.m. CT bound for Atlanta. The only survivor, Stephen Wade Berzas, 37, was in critical condition as of Saturday evening. The eight-seat plane crashed in a parking lot about a mile from its take-off point, bursting into flames with such force that it blew out the windows of a nearby post office. Witnesses told a Lafayette TV station, KATC, that the plane hit a power line while presumably attempting to make an emergency landing through dense fog.
Gretchen Vincent, 51, offered a seat on the plane to McCord, who had no other route to Atlanta. Steven Ensminger had planned to drive McCord to Atlanta, but he couldn't get off work. He's a chemical operator at a nitrogen facility on the Mississippi River in a small town between Baton Rouge and New Orleans. A company policy prohibiting employee vacations after Dec. 22 prevented him from getting time off.
In fact, he was at work without his phone when McCord texted and called him that morning before the flight. He missed both of them. "I don't have my phone and she sends me a message saying she loved me," Steven says. "I was in and out of a nightmare, not being able to tell what was real and what wasn't. I can remember laying in the hospital bed repeating myself saying it wasn't real and then one of the hardest things I'm dealing with is that I missed her text and I missed her call. It is by far the most pain, angst and terror and just darkest time of my life and I honestly don't know how long it will last because I still don't believe it. I don't want to believe it."
While eating lunch, Steven learned of McCord's death from his aunt. Back in Atlanta, special assistant to the head coach Derek Ponamsky informed Orgeron of the news. It was Orgeron who broke the news to Ensminger. It trickled to assistants during staff meetings and a walk-through at the team hotel in downtown Atlanta. There was never a doubt that Ensminger would coach, living up to his reputation of toughness and grit, of hard work and focus. After all, Steve sometimes sleeps in a cot in his office during fall camp. He's a journeyman of a coach, fired three times as a coordinator or assistant, humble enough to find ways to dodge media interviews, the focus of hard fan criticism upon his promotion to offensive coordinator in 2018.
Those close to him aren't surprised by the strong will he showed Saturday. "Only Slinger," says LSU receivers coach Mickey Joseph, using Steve's nickname, one that dates back to his quarterbacking college days. "For Coach E to come out and call the plays he called… somebody was watching over him," says running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire. Asked in the postgame celebration how her husband did it, Amy Ensminger's eyes begin to swell with tears and she points up to the heavens, "God," she whispers.
Many players only learned of the news by word of mouth, some before the game and others afterward. Blake Ferguson, a senior snapper, heard about it from an equipment manager during pregame warmups. "I immediately went over to coach, hugged him and told him I loved him," Ferguson says. "He's strong as hell for coaching in this game. We played for him and that family."
McCord wasn't just a daughter-in-law to an LSU assistant. Even before she married Steven Ensminger Jr. almost two years ago, she held a close connection to those around LSU. She turned into a familiar face on many televisions in the state as a Cox Sports and ESPN sideline reporter, known for her hard-charging reporting and bubbly persona. McCord held jobs few knew about, Steven says. She woke up each morning around 4 a.m. to teach online English classes to kids in China, and she worked some with New Orleans TV station WDSU. She also served as a travel agent and spent time covering some of her favorite programs, the New Orleans Pelicans and Saints. "She was a tough minded, caring, charismatic personality who would not take no for an answer," says Jordy Culotta, a Baton Rouge sports radio host and cousin to McCord. "She was refreshing in our business. She was also my friend. A sad day."
McCord and Steve Ensminger had a joking relationship, one full of jesting at one another's expense. Before McCord and Steven's wedding, Steve told her that he might not make the ceremony because he's "got recruits in," Steven says. McCord would poke at her father-in-law that demons were coming for him. "She'd always give my dad a hard time," Steven says. "These words are the hardest words I've ever had to speak. She will always be part of my life. I'm torn and struggling but I knew she would tell me to be strong. I love her. I miss her so much it hurts. I wish she was here with me."
After the game, Steve Ensminger left the coaches' suite and briskly walked directly to his family, escorted by a team spokesman. Soon afterward, he'd call his son again to check up. It's a call Steven was waiting for since they had last talked, one he thought about as the Tigers romped to a big win.
"To sit here and watch my dad with so many emotions and a heavy heart and his worry for me and watch him do what he said we would do, there's no question that he is my rock, my idol, my mentor, my coach, my father," Steven says. "I'm his namesake and I wouldn't be able to make it through anything without him there to tell me to man up and get through it."
