Yemen needs $2 bln in emergency aid as millions face death by hunger
More than 10,000 people have been killed in the full-blown civil war since 2015, and millions have been displaced.

Millions of children and women in Yemen are urgently in need of food aid as widespread famine has gripped the war-torn country, the UN has said. The alarming report says that around 12 million of the total Yemeni population of 19 million will need food aid this year, without which they would face acute hunger. The UN estimates an aid corpus of about $ 2 billion is required to feed the crippled population.
"Two years of war have devastated Yemen and millions of children, women and men desperately need our help," warned UN humanitarian aid chief said.
"Without international support, they may face the threat of famine in the course of 2017 and I urge donors to sustain and increase their support to our collective response," Stephen O'Brien added.
More than 10,000 people have been killed in the full-blown civil war since 2015, and millions have been displaced. Saudi Arabia-led coalition forces have been pounding the Iran-allied Houthi Shia strongholds with heavy bombardment, leaving the country sharply divided. UN says the economy has collapsed and the country that depends totally on imports has practically shut down.
Lack of enough food has left nearly 3.3 million people, including 2.1 million children, severely malnourished. The closure of Sanaa airport in August 2016 by Saudi Arabia has dealt another blow to te civilians as they are deprived of critical supplies of medicines. There are 460,000 children under age five who suffer from severe malnutrition and are vulnerable to fatal illnesses, Reuters reported.
Jamie McGoldrick, U.N. humanitarian coordinator in Yemen, said around 55 percent of Yemen's medical facilities are dysfunctional and the government has no operational budget.
"Many of the people never make it to the feeding centers or the hospitals because they can't afford the transport ... Many people die silent and unrecorded deaths, they die at home, they are buried before they are ever recorded," he said.

Most of you should be aware that for the last couple of years, I have been culturing the patients using paper points around periodontal pockets. The culturing is for either new patients with aggressive disease or old patients who have recurrent disease. That technology enabled me to target antibiotics systemically if they were indicated in cases that needed more than debridement or surgery.
As is proper, competition has now entered the field with a type of culturing that involves just having the patient swish and spit into a vile. The company, OralDNA offers the MyPerioPath test. A report is subsequently generated which gives you a very helpful and informative breakdown of the pathogenic bacteria that are in the saliva. When I've compared this with paper points in the same patient, they've been identical. This may be a more acceptable and certainly easier way to evaluate your patient's pathology that accompanies their periodontal disease.

Report: Barclays Center Preparing To Boot Islanders
Filed Under:Barclays Center, New York Islanders

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The marriage between the New York Islanders and Barclays Center could soon be coming to an end.
According to a report by Bloomberg on Monday, officials with the Brooklyn arena are preparing to dump the NHL team after concluding the venue would be better off financially hosting Nets games and concerts.
The Islanders are currently third-worst in NHL attendance, averaging 12,828 fans per game. That's down from 13,626 last season — their first at Barclays — and down from 15,334 — their last year at Nassau Coliseum.
The team and the arena have a 25-year lease, but the Barclays Center could get out of the deal after the 2018-19 season. If the Islanders terminated the lease, they could leave after next season. The Islanders and Barclays have an unusual agreement in which the arena pays the team $53.5 million a year in exchange for business operations, which includes tickets and suite sales.
Neither Barclays Center nor a spokesman for Islanders owners Scott Malkin and Jonathan Ledecky would comment to Bloomberg.
The Isles moved into Barclays last season, but they struggled to attract new fans in Brooklyn while their existing supporters complained about obstructed-view seats and the loss of some traditions from the team's decades on Long Island. Some players also have complained about the quality of the ice.
With a seating capacity of 15,700 for hockey, the Barclays Center is considered small by NHL standards.
Former majority owner Charles Wang moved the team after voters in 2011 rejected a referendum that would have used taxpayer money to build a new arena on Long Island.
Malkin and Ledecky purchased the franchise for $485 million in 2014 and took control July 1, 2016.
Reports that the Isles, too, are unhappy with the arrangement at the Barclays Center began to surface nearly a year ago — and just months after the franchise moved into its new facility.
The team has reportedly discussed building a new arena, either near Belmont Park in Elmont or near Citi Field in Queens.
Nassau Coliseum is undergoing a $260 million renovation, but its seating capacity is being cut to 13,000, making it too small for the NHL.


Oh, those early years of marriage. Thinking back on them now, I realize that I struggled to love my wife well. You may be thinking, "I can't believe he's admitting that!" But the reality was that her emotions – her constant need to talk about her feelings – made me uncomfortable. As a man, I could not relate to her need to talk about her emotions and I looked at her through my masculine lens. I quite clearly communicated, "What is wrong with you?" It created havoc in our relationship that didn't make sense to me. We lived in something similar to a wash machine…everything was good until the spin cycle started.
The spin cycle looked like this: My wife had a conversation with a friend or neighbor that made her uncomfortable. She needed to talk about it, but I considered her "stuff" trivial or unimportant. She would come to me, but I would get that glazed-over look that so many of you are familiar with, saying to her, "Hey, listen, this will blow over. What's the big deal?" She would walk away frustrated, wondering why I didn't take her seriously. Everything would smooth out eventually, until the next spin cycle hit. The periods of calm were okay except that the emotional space that built up between us each time the cycle hit was affecting our marital intimacy.
In the spirit of true confessions, I have to admit that in my heart, I felt superior to my wife. I was better than her because I didn't have all that emotional stuff. Things that bothered her didn't bother me, and when she "got all emotional," I wanted to say, "Come on, you've got to be stronger." If she teared-up, if she cried, if she expressed something that was bothering her, I got that glazed look and thought, "Here we go again…why can't you pull yourself together?" My superiority shut my wife down. No matter how well I tried to feign interest, I very clearly communicated to her that she was weak, inferior and just not capable of coping.
Unintentionally, I was saying that the only things that will count and matter are things that I understand. If I don't understand them, then they don't count — they're not given any real merit or value. As hurtful as this message was, I was also communicating something much deeper to my wife: you don't count. It was not a message I was intending to send, but she received it, loud and clear. Many times I would say to her, "You shouldn't feel that way," or "Why do you feel that way?" This is like telling someone they shouldn't have to go to the bathroom. There was no place in my world for her feelings and emotions. Again, I was looking at her through my masculine lens.
The spin cycle would rev up because my wife felt hurt, misunderstood and devalued. I would send out a message saying, "Hey, if you want sympathy, get that from your girlfriends. If you want to fix something, bring the problem over here and I'll fix it." I was Mr. Fix-it — she was Ms. Feel-it.
Rationalizing this in my mind, I said, "Hey, it's not my fault!" If she didn't feel loved, it was because of her own emotional insecurity. If she would just get those emotional insecurities fixed, then she would feel loved…not needy. We lived in the spin cycle of conflict and drama for years. I decided this was just the way it was going to be until God changed her…because I was fine.
One of my modes for self-evaluation is to go send time alone in the woods. It was on one of these sessions that the Spirit of God really got a hold of my heart in response to my pouring my heart out to God about this issue. I had prayed many times to God to change my wife because I knew that I was loving her well and if she could just get her insecurities fixed, she would feel the love. On this day, God dealt with me in a powerful, convicting way. He stirred in my heart a process that focused on me…not my wife. It caused me to ask God to search me and to show me my stuff as it related to our marriage. Boy, did He show me!
God showed me that deep within my heart, I harbored a spirit of superiority over my wife. God helped me see that I believed myself to be better than my wife, and that I carried a serious load of pride around with me. I knew right then that I had to get things right with my heart and with God, and He began to show me the path. God said to me, "Johnny, the way that you treat Lezlyn is a reflection of your relationship with me. So, if you're out of sync with her, chances are you're out of sync with Me." Thus began my tug of war with God that day.
Broken and convicted, I went home that day and poured my heart of confession out to my wife. I admitted that I had not treated her as my equal because I saw myself as superior to her. I confessed that I saw myself as the stronger emotionally, with my stuff together, and that she just wasn't as strong. She just received me humbly, a bit in awe I think, and listened as I committed before God that I was going to be different…that I was going to learn to love her in the way God called me to love her.
We had a wonderful time of forgiveness and reconciliation…and then the real test came. A friend of Lezlyn's had come to town but hadn't called to let my wife know she was in town. I knew something was bothering her…but viewed this whole thing through my masculine lens. I thought to myself, "If a friend of mine came to town and didn't call, (1) I may not have wanted him to call and (2) maybe he's not really a friend." Very simple!
When I spoke the prayer for Lezlyn out loud, I felt something release in me. I felt manly – not that I felt like a girly man before – but I felt like I was being a covering for my wife, that this was what it meant to be a lover and protector of her.
I felt powerful. I felt a sense of strength go through me that I hadn't felt before. It was as if I was there with her in a whole new way. As she held onto me in that moment, I sensed that she found real security in me. I knew that growth had happened in me and in us, and I realized that this is what she had been needing. She needed me to come alongside and form an alliance with her that allowed her to feel. She needed me to be quiet and just listen to what she was feeling, even when I couldn't fully understand and comprehend the depth or the reasoning behind the feelings. Finally, in my surrendering to God, the how's and why's of my wife's feelings were no longer important. The issue was how could I meet her where she was at emotionally…how could I listen and honor what she's feeling, all the while turning her and her heart over to the Father? In God's timing, I finally heard the message. Men and women are different…on purpose. I'm grateful for where we are today…and now I get it.

Effects of pH on protein-protein interactions and implications for protein phase behavior
André C. Dumetz, Aaron M. Chockla, Eric W. Kaler, Abraham M. Lenhoff
The effects of pH on protein interactions and protein phase behavior were investigated by measuring the reduced second osmotic virial coefficient (b2) for ovalbumin and catalase, and the aggregate and crystal solubilities for ovalbumin, β-lactoglobulin A and B, ribonuclease A and lysozyme. The b2 trends observed for ovalbumin and catalase show that protein interactions become increasingly attractive with decreasing pH. This trend is in good agreement with ovalbumin phase behavior, which was observed to evolve progressively with decreasing pH, leading to formation of amorphous aggregates instead of gel bead-like aggregates, and spherulites instead of needle-like crystals. For both acidic and basic proteins, the aggregate solubility during protein salting-out decreased with decreasing pH, and contrary to what is commonly believed, neither aggregate nor crystal solubility had a minimum at the isoelectric point. β-Lactoglobulin B was the only protein investigated to show salting-in behavior, and crystals were obtained at low salt concentrations in the vicinity of its isoelectric point. The physical origin of the different trends observed during protein salting-in and salting-out is discussed, and the implications for protein crystallization are emphasized.

It took Ronda Rousey all of 14-seconds to dispatch of her latest female opponent, but one reporter took it upon himself to see if she could hang with the fellas. A couple broken ribs and crushed man-parts say she can hang with the fellas.
I'm admittedly not an MMA fan, but I AM a fan of people being put in their place. I don't know who this Adam dude is, but I hope he's more of a Jackass-stunt-show type than an actual reporter. It's obviously a set-up for a news segment that goes terribly wrong.
This might be one of those tide-turning events in human history. If my wife sees this video she's signing up for jiu jitsu tonight. I've been known to occasionally run my mouth in typical testosterone-overdose fashion, and I'm just lucky Ronda Rousey hasn't been within earshot. I seriously might watch the MMA next time she's on the card. I think I can spare 14-seconds.
Bottom line here is you may be the baddest thing on two legs in your local dojo, but when you've got the toughest lady on planet earth across from you that white belt doesn't cut mustard. Get you some of this epic beatdown.

Reader Q&A: Should I Invest in Native or Adapted Lenses for the Panasonic GH4?
Hey Sol! Should I Invest in Native or Adapted Lenses for the Panasonic GH4?
The Panasonic GH4's versatility brings many benefits, but it also raises some questions, such as is it better to invest in native or adapted lenses?
Should I invest in an adapter for Nikon/Canon lenses? I have two pretty solid native lenses as of now but am looking to expand my quiver very soon. I cannot decide if I want to invest in more native lenses because this could very well be my only Panasonic camera. If I decide to switch to another camera in the future, it would much easier if all of my lenses were Canon or Nikon mount.
Any thoughts on this? I am a film student and love my GH4 for video. Do you think Panasonic will keep up their game in the future? If so, sticking to native lenses might not be a bad idea.
This is a great question and it's something that a lot of shooters think about, especially when starting to build their set of lenses. Good lenses will outlast your current camera, so compatibility with future cameras is an important consideration.
With the Panasonic GH4, you have a lot more flexibility when it comes to lenses than many other cameras since it's so adaptable. Though it's a Micro Four-Thirds camera, you could happily use this camera without ever touching a native lens.
In fact, that's exactly what I did for years while shooting on the GH1, GH2, and GH3 since I already had a few Canon FD lenses. I simply picked up a solid FD adapter ($60) and started shooting.
If you already own some non-native lenses, then you should definitely pick up an adapter to use them with the GH4. If you choose wisely, you'll have an adapter that performs well and allows you to start shooting right away instead of waiting to get a whole new set of lenses for the camera.
Nikon and Canon EF are currently the two most popular lens mounts, so there's a good chance you'll be able to use lenses with one of these mounts on your future cameras. Between the two, the Nikon mount is the most adaptable— with the right adapter, you can even use Nikon-mount lenses on Canon EF-mount cameras. Plus, Nikon's F-mount has remained relatively unchanged since the 1950's, giving you a vast catalog of lenses to work with.
That said, its important not to get too wrapped up in thinking about what mount your future camera may have when you have a different camera sitting in front of you right now. Simply put, no one knows what mount your future camera will have.
In the meantime, you can benefit from the compact size and portability of native MFT lenses for the GH4 now, rather than worrying about compatibility with future cameras. You could be shooting with the GH4 for years to come, so why not enjoy a lighter load while you can?
Even if your next camera does not have an MFT mount, MFT is a mature format that has been around for years and has a lot of users. This means that you can always sell your native lenses down the road, and pick up lenses that provide the best fit for that future camera when you actually pick it up.
Bottom line: The GH4's adaptability means that you don't have to choose between native or adapted lenses– you can use both! Adapters are affordable and greatly expand the range of lenses you have access to.
Finally, there's no reason you have to invest heavily in lenses. Buy 2-3 workhorse lenses and rent the others as needed. Sell off lesser-used lenses and pick up new ones– there are a couple lenses I'll probably never sell, but the rest are fair game if they're no longer serving a purpose in my work.
Lens Options for the Panasonic GH4 — use this series of guides and resources to find the best lens setup for your needs.

Corrie legend Liz Dawn hospitalised with lung condition
Updated / Monday, 11 Sep 2017 18:16
Liz Dawn
Relatives of former Coronation Street star Liz Dawn say the actress is "quite chipper" as she recovers in hospital from a lung condition.
The 78-year-old, who played the hugely popular Vera Duckworth in the ITV soap, was rushed to hospital last week.
Her spokesman Barry McManus told the Press Association: "Liz is recovering in hospital and according to members of the family is quite chipper."
Dawn played the argumentative but much-loved Vera, wife of put-upon husband Jack (played by the late Bill Tarmey). Hers was a central character in Coronation Street for more than two decades.

Vera was written out of the show in January 2008 at the actress's request. By then, Dawn had become one of the longest-serving members of the cast.
She had been diagnosed as suffering from the chronic lung disease, emphysema, in 2004 and there were further complications in 2007.

Flames match historic winning streak at 10 games
Also had double-digit run when franchise was in Atlanta during 1978-79 season
by John Kreiser @jkreiser7713 / NHL.com Managing Editor
The Calgary Flames' winning streak is at 10 games and counting after they defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-3 in a shootout at Scotiabank Saddledome on Monday.
It's the longest winning streak for the Flames since the move from Atlanta to Calgary for the 1980-81 season. But it's the second time the franchise has had a double-digit winning streak; while based in Atlanta, the Flames won 10 games in a row from Oct. 14-Nov. 3, 1978.
Those Flames were 6-0-0 at home and 4-0-0 on the road during the streak, outscoring their opponents 55-23. Goaltender Dan Bouchard started and won all 10 games; Brian Elliott has played nine of the 10 games in Calgary's streak, with backup Chad Johnson getting the win in a 4-2 road victory at the Florida Panthers on Feb. 24.
The biggest difference between the streak this season and in 1978 is that all 10 of the wins by the Atlanta Flames came in regulation; regular-season overtime didn't resume until the 1983-84 season. The Calgary Flames are 5-0-0 at home and 5-0-0 on the road during their streak, have outscored opponents 36-18 and also had two shutouts during their streak. However, three of the 10 victories came in overtime and the win against Pittsburgh required a shootout.
The 1978-79 Flames opened their season with a 4-4 tie at the Chicago Blackhawks on Oct. 11 and played a 3-3 tie against the Washington Capitals in their home opener on Oct. 13. In the second half of the back-to-back set one night later, the Flames got their first win of the season by defeating Washington 6-3 at the Capital Centre. Tom Lysiak scored two unassisted goals in the first period and completed his hat trick by scoring his third goal of the night with 6:49 remaining in the second.
The Flames went back to the Omni in Atlanta and steamrolled their next two opponents. Lysiak had three assists, Willi Plett scored two goals and the Flames defeated the Colorado Rockies 8-2 on Oct. 17. Eric Vail scored twice and the Flames held off a late rally for a 7-5 victory against the Montreal Canadiens on Oct. 20.

Bouchard had 38 saves in the Flames' 5-2 win against the Philadelphia Flyers at the Spectrum on Oct. 22. He got plenty of support, with five players each scoring a goal, giving Atlanta 26 goals in what had become a four-game winning streak.
The offense continued to roll back at the Omni. The Flames trailed the Los Angeles Kings 2-1 after the first period on Oct. 24, but scored two goals in the second and four more in the third for a 7-2 victory. Six Flames found the back of the net; Lysiak, who scored the last two goals, was the only player with more than one.
The New York Islanders were next on Oct. 27, and the Flames continued to fill the net, blowing open a game they led 4-3 after two periods by scoring four times in the third for an 8-5 victory. Eric Vail and Bob MacMillan each scored two goals, and Guy Chouinard scored once and had three assists.
The Flames hopped on a plane and hit the road for a game against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Oct. 28. Playing for the fourth time in six nights, the Flames were outshot 46-24; however, Bouchard made 44 saves and MacMillan scored the go-ahead goal with 1:10 remaining in the third period. David Shand's empty-net goal wrapped up a 4-2 victory that extended the streak to seven games.
After a couple of days of rest, the Flames looked reinvigorated in their game at the St. Louis Blues on Oct. 31. Atlanta led 2-0 after one period and 4-1 after two. Chouinard, who assisted on three of the four goals, wrapped up a 5-2 victory with a goal late in the third period.
Bouchard was flawless one night later back at the Omni. The Flyers outshot the Flames 40-21, but Bouchard made 40 saves for his first shutout of the season and a 3-0 victory. John Gould, Lysiak and Ken Houston scored goals.
The Penguins came to Atlanta on Nov. 3 and made the Flames work. But Bouchard made Jean Pronovost's first-period goal stand up until Lysiak hit the empty net with one second remaining to seal a 2-0 win and the first 10-game winning streak in franchise history. Bouchard made 25 saves for his second shutout in as many games.
But the Flames ran out of gas at the Montreal Forum on Nov. 4. They overcame an early two-goal deficit on goals by Lysiak and Houston, but Guy Lapointe put Montreal ahead 3-2 early in the third period. Yvon Lambert's empty-netter with 14 seconds remaining gave the Canadiens a 4-2 victory and handed the Flames their first loss of the 1978-79 season.
The Flames returned home and won their next two games, defeating the Vancouver Canucks 4-2 on Nov. 10 to improve to 12-1-2. Despite their winning streak and sizzling start, the Flames finished last in the powerful Patrick Division, albeit at 41-31-8 with 90 points that was better than all but two teams in the other three divisions. Atlanta qualified for the Stanley Cup Playoffs but was swept by the Toronto Maple Leafs in their best-of-3 Preliminary Round series.

The Best Actor Race Evolves
HomeAll PostsAwardsThe Best Actor Race Evolves
Awards, John, Oscars, TIFF 2018 on September 23, 2018
After TIFF ended last year, there was no question Gary Oldman was on the path to the Oscar for Best Actor for his acclaimed performance as Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour (2017). Frankly, I was not impressed with the performance, I could not decide if it was Oldman doing the work or the makeup. For me, James Franco in The Disaster Artist (2017) also at TIFF gave the best performance last year, but Oldman had pretty much been crowned Best Actor.
Is there a performance from this year's festival that could go all the way? Indeed. But things are changing, it is no longer as cut and dried as it once was. There is the danger of a backlash, of critics suddenly deciding the performance was not THAT good after all.
Viggo Mortensen in Green Book gave a big, broad, rugged performance as a tough guy awakened to racial hatred in the Deep South of the sixties. As Tony, a bouncer at the Copacabana, out of work he is hired by a gifted black musician, Don, elegant, educated, a doctor of music, to drive and protect him in the South. At first, Tony is typical of most white males of the time, but grows to see the doctor as a person, and finally a dear friend. The man who threw out glasses used by two black plumbers, at the end fondly embraces the doctor and calls him family. Mortensen portrays the arc of the character beautifully, giving what might be his best performance. Well-liked in the community, respected for his integrity and gifts, he came out of TIFF leading the pack. But now can he hold that lead?
It is not easy.
In 2011 George Clooney emerged from the festival the frontrunner for his breathtaking work in The Descendants (2011) and seemed about to cruise to an Oscar. But at the last moment he was bested, unfairly I think, by Jean Dujardin in The Artist (2011) a lovely performance but based on a gimmick.
Who at this writing could challenge Mortensen?
Ryan Gosling was outstanding as Neil Armstrong in First Man, but his work was so internalized audiences might miss the greatness in the work. I think it is among his finest work and richly deserving of a nomination.
The actor who could knock Mortensen down could be Bradley Cooper, who is astonishing as the rock star on the way down in A Star is Born, as his wife ascends to the top of the business. With a rumble of a votive scorched by Jack Daniels and too many cigarettes, his eyes bleary and tired, his entire being beaten down, Cooper is extraordinary. He captures how love infuses one with energy, with a life force, something rarely captured with such aching honesty. He and co-star Lady Gaga could both be Oscar winners come the big night.
The early word on Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody is growing, and the trailers look interesting. If Malek, so brilliant in HBO's The Pacific (2010) lives up to the hype count on him in there. Malek seems to inhabit Mercury with his performance, though a trailer does not a movie make.
John C. Reilly may surprise for his work as screen legend Oliver Hardy in Stan and Ollie, which covers their career after the movies forgot them. They toured England in beer halls, recreating their best bits from films, aware their time had passed. Again, inside word is strong, Reilly Is a much-admired character actor portraying a Hollywood legend. Maybe.
As Vice President Dick Cheney, I say Christian Bale is a shoo-in, though only a handful of insiders, most connected to the film have seen his work. Said to transformative, Bale does one of his disappearing acts in the movie, now called Vice. He deserved a nomination last year for the exquisite western Hostiles (2017) which did not come so he is on the radar this year.
Willem Dafoe has been earning praise as Van Gogh in Julian Schnabel's At Eternity's Gate in which the veteran actor portrays the tortured artist. Dafoe was outstanding last year in The Florida Project (2017) winning many critics awards but not the Oscar. There is a sense it is his time, which I hate, but it cannot be ignored.
Ironically, Mortensen's toughest competition might come from his co-star, Mahershala Ali, won just won an Oscar in Moonlight (2016) for Supporting Actor. Rumour has it Universal will submit him as supporting for Green Card, but make no mistake, they are both leading roles. Mortensen has more screen time and a showier role but Ali makes the most out his scenes. Elegant, well-read, cultured, speaking various languages, his Don is an interesting man, who learns as much from Tony as Tony does from him. Both deserves Best Actor nods.
Ethan Hawke could be a threat if voters can remember his performance in the excellent First Reformed, but it was released quite some time ago, which hurts.

The Maldives' coral reefs are globally significant. The reef ecosystem is the seventh largest in the world and the fifth most biodiverse.
Watch our fishermen video
The future of the Maldives and its people are entirely reliant on the protection of their marine and coastal environment. Yet, overfishing, excessive tourism, pollution and coastal development are degrading the country's reefs, seagrass and mangroves and these habitats are losing their capacity to support the people who depend on them.
BLUE's aim is to restore coral reefs as climate resilient ecosystems for the benefit of nature and people that depend on them, and to raise awareness of the need to protect seagrass which is 35 times more effective at storing carbon than tropical rainforests.
In 1972, there were two resorts in the Maldives and 100 visitors made their way to these remote islands. The new airport expansion project, to be completed by the end of this year, will allow 7.5 million people to visit. While tourism remains the backbone of the country's economy, unmanaged and unregulated operations can devastate marine life. Ensuring resorts put sustainable business at the core of their operations is a priority for BLUE's work in the Maldives.
In 2019, BLUE launched the #ProtectMaldivesSeagrass social media campaign, together with our partner resort Six Senses Laamu, to call on resorts to stop removing the seagrasses around their resort island to make clear lagoons for their guests. Within the space of three months, BLUE managed to convince more than a quarter of all resorts in the country to commit to protecting more than 830,000m2 of seagrass, absorbing significant amounts of carbon.
¼ of all Maldives resorts committed to protecting seagrass
830,000m2 of seagrass protected
200 students taken snorkelling for the first time
Quarter of all high-end Maldives resorts commit to protect Maldives seagrass
Quarter of luxury resorts commit to Seagrass Protection

By working together, we can turn the tide on overfishing and the destruction of biodiversity. By supporting BLUE, you can help to create marine reserves around the world.

El Salvador: AIDS NGO Attacked. Gay Activist Receives Death Threats
In the week that followed FUNDASIDA and Dr. Carillo receieved a series of threatening phone calls. Members of FUNDASIDA's gay men's support group, Entre Amigos, also received death threats. A group calling itself "Sombra Negra" claimed responsibility for the threats.
These most recent threats follow threats made against a prominent AIDS educator last year. In those events (see Emergency Response Network, November / December 1994), Wilfredo Valencia Palacios was threatened by armed men during the course of his street outreach activities. According to newspaper accounts, the mayor of San Salvador also made statements to the press in June of this year threatening to crack down on prostitution and homosexuals in the capital.
Armed right wing groups known as death squads were a crucial component of the official couter insurgency campaign waged against opposition groups during El Salvador's civil war in the 1980's. These groups continue to function. It is imperative that these groups not be allowed to function with the practically unmitigated impunity with which they acted in the 1980's. Urgent letters are needed to the Salvadoran government insisting that those guilty of the attacks and threats against FUNDASIDA be arrested and prosecuted.
Letters should make the following points:
It is imperative that the government of El Salvador move with force to investigate fully the attacks and threats against FUNDASIDA and their staff. The government should further move to implement the recommendations of the Grupo Conjunto, a UN appointed commission charged with investigating the activities of illegally armed groups in El Salvador, in order to finally eradicate death squad activity in El Salvador.
An adequate public health response to the AIDS epidemic in El Salvador necessarily includes state guarantees for the safety and well being of AIDS educators and gay activists. Numerous bodies, including the World Health Organization, have amply discussed the centrality of human rights and guarantees of non discrimination to successful HIV prevention efforts.

We recommend getting your pets spayed and neutered by 6 months of age.
We can do surgery on animals as young as 8 weeks of age. Your pet must weight at least 2.5 pounds, and if male, both testicles must have descended.
If your pet has any additional concerns, such as in-heat, pregnant, dental needs, etc.
Please remember we have a high call volume and will try to return your call within a timely manner.
The cost of surgery already includes a cone or e-collar for dogs only, which helps prevent your pet from licking and irritating the surgery incision. If you would like to purchase pain medication for your pet, it is an additional fee.
Pets must be current on age appropriate vaccines. If your pet is due for vaccines, they can be done at the same time as the surgery or you can bring them in before-hand to our walk-in vaccine clinic. Please see our "Vaccine Clinic" tab for more information about this. If your pet has had vaccines done at another facility, you must bring the proof of vaccines with you to the appointment.
You must call to schedule an appointment for spay/neuter surgery. We do not currently offer the option to schedule surgery appointments online. Our normal surgery days are only Monday through Friday, but vary week to week depending on Holidays and the doctor's availability. Drop off is between 8:30 am-10:00 am and pick up is the same day between 5:30 pm-6:00 pm.
Your female pet will live a longer, healthier life. Spaying helps prevent uterine infections and breast tumors, which are malignant or cancerous in about 50 percent of dogs and 90 percent of cats.
Your male dog will be less likely to roam away from home. An intact male will do just about anything to find a mate, including finding creative ways escape from the house. Once he's free to roam, he risks injury in traffic and fights with other male animals.
Your neutered male may be better behaved. Un-neutered dogs and cats are more likely to mark their territory by spraying strong-smelling urine all over the house. Your dog might be less likely to mount other dogs, people and inanimate objects after he's neutered. Some aggression problems may be avoided by early neutering.
Try your best to limit your pet's activity level for the next 10-14 days and the cone collar should be kept on AT ALL TIMES. Your pet should be able to eat, drink, and sleep with the cone on. Please note you will need to elevate their food and water bowls to help them access them with the cone on. Pets should be restricted to short potty walks, we recommend to keep them in a kennel or confined to a bedroom when you are not monitoring them, pets that like to play/rough house with other pet's should be kept separate until they are completely healed from surgery. Cats should be kept indoors, if they are allowed outside.
For females, surgical steel sutures are usually used and are permanent under the skin. Staples and or surgical glue may also be used to close the skin. If your pet has staples, they should be removed in 14 days after the surgery. You can drop-in anytime we are open and have these removed for free.
The night of surgery when you bring your pet home, they may still be a little groggy from the anesthesia. Please keep them in a dimly-lit and quiet area until they are more alert. After surgery, cats may not want to be handled right away, allow them to come to you when they are ready. You may feed your pet at their normal dinner time after the surgery, however we recommend feeding them half of what they normally eat so as not to upset their stomachs. It is normal if your pet does not want to eat or vomits it's food the night of surgery. If your pet's appetite is not back to normal within 24 hours, please call us ASAP.
Healthy animals do not need antibiotics following a routine sterile surgery such as spay/neuter. Most post-op incision issues are due to self trauma (licking) by the patient and DO NOT require an emergency room visit, unless there is tissue/organs hanging outside of the body wall. If you go to another vet, YOU will be responsible for the bill. Well Pet is not liable for any complications that may arise.
Please drop-in to Well Pet any time during normal business hours to have your pet's incision checked for free if you have any concerns.
Microchips are small computer chips that are the size of a grain of rice that is inserted under your pet's skin, usually between the shoulder blades. Microchips carry a unique ID number to identify your pet. Microchips are not tracking devises. When a microchip scanner is passed over the over the pet, the microchip transmits the microchips ID number.
We recommend that all pets receive a microchip to help ensure that your pet is returned to you in case they are ever lost or stolen. Although, putting a collar with an ID tag and contact information on your pet is also important, microchipping is permanent. You do not have to worry about it ever falling out and it will last the lifetime of your pet. It is important that you keep your contact information up to date so that you can be reached in case your pet is ever lost.
If your pet has already received a microchip elsewhere, please let us know so that we can put the microchip number into our computer system and your pet can have a completed profile.

Taking up where iconic bands like Deep Purple and Bad Company left off, Heaven & Earth is on a mission to resurrect the sanctity of classic rock in its purest, most accessible form on their third studio album titled "Dig". Due out on April 23 via Quarto Valley Records, the Cd was produced by Dave Jenkins, who's worked with everyone from Metallica to Tower Of Power — and features special guests Howard Leese (Heart, Paul Rodgers), Richie Sambora (Bon Jovi), and David Paich (Toto).
Heaven & Earth recently released a special behind-the-scenes look into the making of "Dig" and what brought these five musicians together to make such a "classic"-sounding record. The clip premiered on Aol's Noisecreep and can be seen below.
Heaven & Earth's founder and visionary Stuart Smith had this to say about "Dig": "I feel that with the crafting of the songs on this album, the incredible band we've put together, especially with powerhouse vocalist Joe Retta and the unwavering support of Quarto Valley Records' president, Bruce Quarto, we really have a shot at getting Heaven & Earth the attention it deserves. This album is by far, the best thing I have ever done in my life."
Smith, who spent the '70s bending strings with numerous groups before he distinguished himself by making the acquaintance of Deep Purple's Ritchie Blackmore, who mentored the up-and-coming musician. At the urging of Blackmore, Smith made his way to Los Angeles and began planting the seeds of what was to become Heaven & Earth. Now with the release of "Dig" on the near horizon, the guitarist says Heaven & Earth is a true band, an energized collective of like-minded musicians who are excited at bringing its unique, celestial brand of rock to audiences all over the world. "All the pieces are in place," he explains with graceful candor. "We're ready to make this our year."
The album cover for "Dig" was created by acclaimed photographer Glen Wexler, who has shot over 300 album covers, including records by Van Halen, Black Sabbath and Michael Jackson.


We know that vaccine development programs face several challenges that set them apart from other types of healthcare product development programs. For example, when a vaccine is presented to the immune system during vaccination there are many questions that arise. Is the immune response vigorous enough (or too vigorous), is the right type of immunity being stimulated by the vaccine, how long does the immune response last and how rapidly is it recalled on exposure to a pathogen?
Also, we observe that industry trends are to move to purer subunit or vectored vaccines, and these trends bring new issues with them. Purer vaccines tend to be less immunogenic, creating the need to do adjuvant studies to identify vaccine-adjuvant pairs that stimulates an appropriate immune response while ideally raising no safety signals. With vectored vaccines the questions revolve around how the host immunity to the vector affects the vaccine immune response and the ability to use these vectored vaccines again in the future. We have worked with a number of companies to resolve or mitigate these technical challenges.
Vendor management is a critical aspect of a vaccine development program. Vaccine clinical trials can be extremely long (multi-year) and can involve a large numbers of subjects (10,000+) to achieve statistically significant results. Vaccine targets for dangerous pathogens are typically biosafety level 2+ or higher, requiring access to labs that can accommodate the pathogen being studied. Many vaccines are needed in undeveloped regions of the world, necessitating low final sale prices and culturally based methods of distribution.
The immunization procedure must be as simple as possible and the vaccine should be stable at room temperature or higher so it can be shipped to any location worldwide. Finally, after FDA approval, vaccines need to receive vaccine advisory committee recommendations in order to achieve acceptance in the marketplace. Finding appropriately qualified vendors, and managing those relationships and contracts, is an area where the LBG group has significant expertise. We have worked with most of the major vendors of these services, developed management plans, and executed on those plans.
Navigating the many hurdles above is made easier when you've already encountered and have experience overcoming the obstacles. LBG consultants are available for the strategic planning of your vaccine program, product development support (quality, regulatory, clinical and CMC), as well as business development support when your program is ready for partnering. We can provide the technical and strategic expertise necessary to guide your company's progression to a marketed product.

Iran's currency drops in value reflects collapse in confidence - expert
Iran 6 October 2012 09:24 (UTC+04:00)
Azerbaijan, Baku, Oct. 5 /Trend S.Isayev/
The immediate drop in the value of the rial in Iran reflects a collapse in confidence in the currency as the result of sanctions that have significantly reduced oil revenues, Senior fellow at Nanyang Technological University's S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies, James M. Dorsey told Trend.
The expert was commenting on the recent currency jumps in Iran.
Dorsey said these ups and downs with Iranian currency made it difficult to do business in dollars and euros and persuaded many foreign companies to steer clear of Iran.
"The collapse of confidence is in effect political given that the rial has fixed rate governed by the central bank that has effectively allowed for a parallel market," Dorsey said.
Iran's foreign currency market has become increasingly chaotic over recent days. The government officially launched the Iran Forex Centre on September 24 in an effort to stop the national currency's (the rial) plunge in value but that move hasn't been effective.
"As a result of these happenings, the sanctions are effectively sharpening and exploiting weaknesses in the Iranian economy that are the result of domestic policies," Dorsey underscored.
Since the center opened last week a dollar has gone from costing 25,500 rials to 36,200 rials by yesterday (Tuesday) afternoon.
But Iran's economy is under increasing pressure because of international sanctions that have made it extremely difficult for Iran to sell its oil and have access to its foreign currency holdings around the world.
On Monday, a USD was sold at 29, 700 rials in the morning, but sharply increased to 35,500 rials by the evening. As a result of the rapid drop, as much as 660 trillion rials in cash assets of country's citizens were lost on Monday evening.
Following the unstable ups and downs of Iran's currency markets, people at the market were gathering up, burning tires and shouting slogans against government, Iranian media outlets reported.
