Thanks to all participants, sponsors and exhibitors who helped make The EMBO Meeting 2009 a success.
See you in Barcelona in 2010!
2009 sees the start of a new tradition – The EMBO Meeting, an annual conference aiming to advance the life sciences through programmes reflecting the concepts and high-resolution approaches of modern biological research.
Scientists young and old will come together to tell and to learn of new developments; to gossip and to forge new collaborations; and, hopefully, to leave motivated with fresh vigour and ideas that lead to new discoveries.
The EMBO Meeting represents the very fabric of what EMBO is about - recognizing and fostering talented scientists, empowering them to advance the life sciences to understand how life works and share knowledge to meet the challenges of a changing world.
Hans Clevers and Stephen West put together this year's scientific programme. There will be special lectures, career forums and skill development workshops, poster sessions, sponsored symposia and exhibits, prizes and award ceremonies. EMBO aims to inform and inspire participants whatever the stage of their scientific careers.
The EMBO Meeting takes over from former ELSO meetings to bring together life scientists from Europe and around the world.
You'll find more detailed information using the navigation bars on the left; functional tabs along the top allow you to sign up.
On behalf of EMBO Council, we invite you to join us in Amsterdam for The EMBO Meeting 2009.


The photography club meets from the month of September to June on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of the month, at 7:30 pm, at Pilgrim Presbyterian Church, at 750 Belvidere Road, Phillipsburg,.
Meanwhile, the Bureau of Land Management and the Umpqua National Forest are arranging a photo competition in Douglas County. As of now, the National Forest Service has got approximately fifty snaps but they have elongated the deadline to 9th February to offer more people a scope to enter. It has already been three years that the contest has been going on.
People can enter 2 snaps for every season, and they should be of public lands in Umpqua Basin. Amateur and novice photographers are urged to enter and win. Umpqua National Forest's Lucero Hernandez told that the winner is displayed here in their office or at BLM's office for about six months and the winners receive prizes which this year are camping prizes, outdoor equipment and a lot of really fun stuff.

Congrats you two! Here is a little sneak peek to hold you over. Stay tuned for more!


If you are a real fan of The Lord of the Rings franchise, then today is your happy day, because we are going to tell you lots of interesting and fresh information about a game, entitled Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor.
Thus, yesterday the new Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor trailer appeared on the official video channel of the project. This trailer not only shows us the events, which have laid the foundation of the upcoming game's story line, but it also reveals the release date of the project. But let us tell everything in order. So, according to the video, Talion - the game's protagonist - comes to life after he and all his family were brutally murdered by Sauron's henchmen. But our hero, unlike his wife and son, isn't dead, he becomes possessed by the spirit of vengeance, which gives him some superhuman powers. Our protagonist won't stop to punish those who are guilty in the murder of his family and finally get the opportunity to join the wife and the son in the eternity. But while we are waiting for the project's release, we suggest you watching and appreciating fresh Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor trailer. Don't forget to write your opinion about the video and the main character in the comments below.
Besides, as we told you earlier, Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor release date and the pre-order bonuses have been revealed. Thus, this action-RPG will be launched on the 7th of October for the current and next-gen consoles, as well as for PC. As for the bonuses to those who will pre-order the game, the developers have had a fit of generosity and have offered a set, entitled The Dark Ranger. It includes a skin, published below, Test of Power (you have to defeat the Sauron's commanders to get some additional advantage at the beginning of the game), as well as a possibility to be added to the exclusive leaderboards for this test.

FEBRUARY 2020: Earthworks SR314 Handheld Vocal Condenser Microphone
Home » Recording Resources » Featured Reviews » FEBRUARY 2020: Earthworks SR314 Handheld Vocal Condenser Microphone
A shiny new object bringing studio quality sound to the stage… and the studio as well
Review by Alex Hawley
Earthworks is known for making high-quality microphones for the studio and stage. Its microphones notoriously reproduce clean, crisp, and accurate sound with an ultra-fast transient response, extended frequency range, and very low noise. I've used a pair of omnidirectional QTC40 mics in the studio for years, in a variety of applications. I've come to rely on them as a means of capturing sources without coloration. The SR314, as with all Earthworks microphones, is designed to reproduce an exceptionally natural sound with high fidelity and reliability. It's a high-definition handheld vocal mic intended for live use, but let's see what it can do in the studio as well.
The SR314 is a transformerless condenser microphone with a fixed cardioid polar pattern. It's designed to have low handling noise to perform well on stage, and can withstand up to 145dB SPL. It's built from solid stainless steel and weighs 1.5 lbs. It feels very balanced and solid in the hands, and the resilient stainless steel is a great choice to withstand the abuse of touring. Frequency response ranges from 20Hz to 30kHz with a signal-to-noise ratio of 79dB (A-weighted).

The SR314 is not only designed to capture its source with absolute clarity, but also to reject off-axis material in a natural-sounding way. This enhances its ability to withstand more gain without creating a feedback loop. The rejection of sources at 180 degrees is superb, and it still offers a reasonably wide sweet spot to allow the vocalist a good range of movement without drastic changes in sound quality. The polar response chart indicates that the tight cardioid directionality stays true through 6kHz, and then starts to open up a bit. From about 12.5kHz and beyond, the response pushes into an omnidirectional territory. I was a bit worried about running into bleed issues with cymbals on stage, but it never created any issues for me. The frequency response chart shows a very flat response within +/- 3dB throughout the entire spectrum. There are slight peaks around 10kHz and 15kHz, a slight dip around 4kHz and 8kHz, and a gentle roll-off below 100 Hz.
The SR314 comes with a standard plastic mic clip and soft fabric case. While the soft case doesn't provide maximum protection for a microphone of this price, the microphone itself is built like a tank, so it shouldn't be much of an issue. I'm a fan of the stainless steel aesthetic; it seems to hold up against fingerprints surprisingly well, keeping it looking clean and shiny with minimal effort. The stylized double-layered pop screen that surrounds the diaphragm almost seems like something from the 1970s. It's not often that you find a practical and attractive design in a microphone intended for live use. The pop screen extends down almost half of the microphone, which should also aid in keeping vocalists' hands in the proper position. Unscrewing the screen reveals a classic Earthworks-style design with a tapered thin head housing the small diaphragm. It looks great on stage, and every musician I put it in front of was excited to sing into it, which says a lot.
The first thing that jumped out at me about the SR314 was the top end. The high frequencies sound natural and forward, but avoid sibilance on most vocalists. The naturally bright sound puts the vocalist comfortably forward in the mix, which should create less work for the FOH engineer. It doesn't sound overly exaggerated; it comes across airy and smooth. It might be a bit of a shock to some vocalists, especially those who are used to gigging with beat-up dynamic microphones, but the SR314 instantly struck me as bringing studio-quality sound to the stage.
The low frequencies sound very tight and focused, especially in the 125 to 200 Hz range. It provides enough body and substance to create a well-rounded sound without ever muddying up the signal. There were a couple of instances of the pop-screen letting a few plosives through, but for the most part, it held up decently well. The well-rounded response carried through to the midrange, which sounds evenly balanced and accurately represented.
The polar response sounds very natural to my ears, striking a balance between providing a wide enough sweet spot for live use, and rejecting off-axis material that may cause feedback. Overall, I'd classify the polar pattern to be very tight, and the off-axis rejection to be excellent. I've been burned by overly-sensitive condenser microphones on stage in the past, a lesson all engineers learn sooner or later. Still, even when singers inevitably ask for "more me!" in their already cranked wedges, the SR314 keeps it together. It's well equipped to endure high SPL levels before having any issues in that department.
Even though it's designed for live use, I was very curious to throw the SR314 on a stand in the studio and track some acoustic guitar with it. If it can perform as well as it does on a noisy stage, why can't it thrive in a treated studio?
The quick and punchy response provided a nice and percussive attack for the strumming. While some microphones tend to get a bit clinical sounding if they're heavily focused on accuracy, the SR314 does an excellent job of providing a musical and vivid sound. I didn't get an opportunity to try it, but I suspect it would make a decent snare top mic in the studio as well, especially given its transient response, airy top end, and its ability to take levels up to 145dB.
I'm most impressed by the off-axis rejection of the SR314. It's very well-suited for the stage and truly brings studio-quality fidelity to the task. If you have any experience with Earthworks microphones, this falls very much into the same family of natural, balanced, and detailed sound. The only issue I had was with plosives. Singers get right up on the mic during live performances, and the screen did a nice job in catching most of it, but some heavily emphasized P's still popped through. The quick responsiveness provides punch, and the top end offers a smooth and detailed sound that pushes vocals to sit comfortably on top of the mix.

Museum to get facelift
An historic museum in Far North Queensland will be renovated thanks to a grant from the Australian Government.
Funding of $155,000 has been provided in a one-off grant to the National Trust of Australia (Queensland) to upgrade the James Cook Museum in Cooktown
The project includes urgent repair works to the Museum's main building, a 19th Century convent, involving water proofing, new guttering, downpipes and associated painting, and some external interpretative signage.
The upgrades will allow the museum to continue to be a tourist drawcard with collections that include:
Local Guugu Yimithiir artefacts
an original anchor and canon from HMB Endeavour
items from the region's Chinese migrant heritage and the gold rush era
the history of the convent itself.
The Trust is aiming to complete the roofing repair works before December 2021, with the upgrade completed by the end of May 2022, weather permitting.


Abstract The soil inventory survey of Wallace County, Southland Province, New Zealand, was mapped at a scale of 1:50 000 and covers approximately 700 000 hectares out of a total of 965 600 hectares. The county has six physiographic units, each with distinct soil series peculiar to those units. Within these physiographic units the soils have been separated by differences in morphology, drainage and parent materials. Basement rocks of diverse origin in the mountain ranges are sources of alluvium in valley floors. One hundred and thirty-two soil mapping units, of which some 64 are named for the first time, are outlined on the 6 sheets of the map and are described in an extended legend and explanatory notes. Subsidiary maps illustrate the physiographic units and the extent of loess cover both shallow and deep deposits. Explanatory notes on the extended legend, correlation of soil units with South Island soil sets and classification of soils for land use are given in an appendix.


Game design student Andrew Reid talks to us about life at Abertay University.
I've been playing video games for as long as I can remember, starting with the Sega MegaDrive, and now a Sony loyalist. Video games have been my escape and passion, but I never really knew that you could study video games. It wasn't until I was filling out my UCAS application (originally planning for a History and Secondary Education degree) that my twin brother searched for it on Google. That was enough to convince me to apply instead for Abertay University.
Why did you choose this uni?
Abertay University is known worldwide for its video game degrees, and I think we are very fortunate to have an institution such as this in the UK. Abertay's reputation has recently been elevated to a new level, by being featured on the Princeton Review "Top 25 Places to Study Video Game Design" – all down to the incredible staff within the Institute of Arts, Media and Games.
The library is expansive, with lots of areas to work, and plenty of resources available to all students. There is a gym facility that offers excellent membership rates, and the Student Union is literally across a (very narrow) road, which has a sports bar, a gallery, and a gaming bar!
What's the student experience like?
Dundee is known for being one of the best places for a night out. There are tons of nightclubs, bars, restaurants and theatres to whet everyone's appetite. There are loads of societies that people can get involved in (from Pokemon to Renaissance Martial Arts!) where you can make new friends.
Best thing about studying at your uni?
The community. Abertay is a 6000-strong university, making it relatively small in size, so you tend to meet everyone at least once during your time here. Staff, students and societies make Abetay a welcoming place to study.
Have you done any work-experience?
I have been fortunate to hold numerous positions at Abertay. I have started my own student journalism group (2012/13), I have been a Producer for developing video games (2013/14), a Student Executive Officer for the Students' Association (2013/14), a Research Assistant (2014/15), a Class Representative (2014/15), and a Summer Intern for Teaching and Learning Enhancement (2014). My course is very multi-disciplinary!
I am relatively flexible with my career plans. I have an interest in project management of video games and digital media, but I do aim to continue my academic career towards a PhD and become a lecturer in the Digital Humanities (more specifically, "Serious Games" and their applications to society).
Any tips for students thinking about going to uni?
Make the most of it. A degree is simply the foundation of being at university, and realistically you will struggle to gain graduate employment if you don't take on other projects. Join societies, get involved around campus, organise events, start an enterprise, do some fundraising – anything that will make you look different. Don't be worried if it's not relevant to your course – the more outlandish, the more you stand out and the more opportunities you will have!

Iran's corona-diplomacy
The Rouhani administration's miscalculated efforts to get sanctions lifted
Ali Fathollah-Nejad and Amin Naeni Wednesday, April 29, 2020
Content from the Brookings Doha Center is now archived.  After 14 years of an impactful partnership, Brookings and the Brookings Doha Center are ending their affiliation as the center launches a separate public policy institution based in Qatar. The center will continue its important work under the name the Middle East Council on Global Affairs by the end of 2021.
While President Trump's campaign of "maximum pressure" against Iran has been building for three years now, the COVID-19 pandemic is making its impact much more acute. The administration of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has been pressing the U.S. to ease or lift sanctions in light of the public health and economic crises affecting a huge number of Iranians. Iranian politicians say that they cannot import medical goods under sanctions; the U.S responds that such goods have been excluded from the sanctions list. Both sides owe solid evidence to prove their respective arguments.

Regardless of the exact details, Tehran has tried to use the present coronavirus crisis to improve its international position. Efforts by the Rouhani administration have focused on breaking the "maximum pressure" campaign, while hardliners continue to reject talks with Washington, hoping that the post-coronavirus era will see a new world order to the benefit of those challenging U.S. power.
"Corona-diplomacy" by Rouhani and Zarif
After Trump's decision to withdraw the U.S. from the nuclear deal (officially the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA) in May 2018, Rouhani has come under pressure from his domestic opponents. His approval rating is in decline, according to some of his opponents falling to below 10%. Against this backdrop, he has tried to revive his key campaign promise of ending onerous sanctions.
Toward this end, Rouhani has used a variety of tools to pressure Trump — in many cases via the Europeans — to ease sanctions. More recently, he sent a letter to the leaders of several countries, arguing that lifting sanctions is necessary for the Islamic Republic to effectively fight the coronavirus, while admitting that "sanctions have caused about $200 billion of direct damages to the Iranian economy in less than two years." In the same vein, Foreign Minister Javad Zarif has stepped up his own efforts, fielding the term "medical terrorism" — instead of merely "economic terrorism" — as a label for U.S. sanctions. He has also made phone calls and sent letters to his counterparts around the world, with his ministry engaged in a Twitter storm to increase pressure on the Trump administration. Zarif called on other countries to outright ignore U.S. sanctions, arguing that sanctions compliance is not moral during a pandemic. Russia and China joined Iran's demand to lift sanctions.
Iran Reconsidered
By Suzanne Maloney
The Iranian Revolution at Forty
Edited by Suzanne Maloney
Alongside efforts to get sanctions eased, speculation abounds that Rouhani and Zarif may be seeking to revive the nuclear deal. Abbas Abdi, a reformist political activist and journalist, says: "Rouhani wants to use the coronavirus for resolving the issue surrounding the JCPOA, lifting sanctions, and ultimately for talks with the United States. And because of this, he does not insist on quarantine." Unlike other heavily affected countries, the Iranian president has opposed quarantine measures (imposing social distancing rules for only a short period), while Iranian physicians have insisted that such steps are necessary to contain the disease. When in mid-March the virus was rapidly spreading throughout the country, Rouhani said that "there is not any quarantine now and neither during the new year holidays," which started on March 20 for two weeks. A member of the Chamber of Commerce said that the administration uses sanctions as an excuse to deflect responsibility, pointing out: "While other countries devote 10% of their GDP [to] fighting the coronavirus, Iran does not."
Reactions in Washington
In spite of high international pressure on Washington to ease sanctions — including from the United Kingdom and human rights organizations — the White House doesn't seem likely to change course. A State Department spokesperson said the department had "no issues with humanitarian trade so long as it is conducted with strong due diligence measures," with Secretary Mike Pompeo saying that "the whole world should know that humanitarian assistance into Iran is wide open. It's not sanctioned." When asked about Europe's first-ever use of the INSTEX payment channel — which was designed to sideline U.S. sanctions — to supply Iran with medical goods, Trump shrugged and twice replied: "[It] doesn't bother me."
During the Obama administration, Iran resisted sanctions by boosting its nuclear capability (increasing uranium enrichment and the number of centrifuges); ultimately, via the nuclear deal, sanctions were eased. Rouhani has tried to restart this approach vis-à-vis Trump, by reducing Iran's nuclear commitments, but it has not produced any U.S. concessions so far.
When President Trump decided to withdraw from the nuclear deal in May 2018, Rouhani confidently said that "our people won't feel problems in their life tomorrow, next week, and over the next years. Now, I am happy that an annoying creature is out of the deal." But after the U.S. re-imposed sanctions that cut Iran off from the JCPOA's economic benefits, Rouhani said in September 2019 that he would be open to discussing "small changes, additions, or amendments" to the deal if Washington lifted sanctions. In retrospect, however, these overtures were part of a miscalculation from the Rouhani administration: Renegotiating the deal could have potentially been on the table before May 2018, but not after.
Now, amid the pandemic, the Iranian government's campaign against Washington's "maximum pressure" sanctions has yielded important international support, but the Rouhani administration still seems to misread the White House. Instead, Tehran has reverted to stressing its own ability to manage the crisis. On April 13, Zarif tweeted: "Despite US sanctions, Iran has made significant progress in fighting the pandemic," and Interior Minister Mohammad-Reza Rahmani-Fazli emphasized that "there is no shortage in the country in terms of providing the necessary medical facilities and equipment for coronavirus."

Dreaming of a post-coronavirus "new world order"
Hardliners in Iran have routinely rejected any renegotiation with Washington. Kayhan, a major ultraconservative daily, has warned that the coronavirus crisis is not a time for talks. It recalled that when the nuclear deal was reached after long negotiations, the U.S. subsequently withdrew from it. Therefore, the paper maintained, negotiating with the U.S. would be the wrong decision. Vatan Emrooz, another hardliner daily, wrote that Rouhani's policy has been the root cause of Iran's economic weakness, lamenting: "The only response that has been given to society in this regard was to recommend passive patience in the hope of another president of the United States after the next election." In the meantime, Baqer Ghalibaf, Rouhani's two-time presidential rival who is poised to be the next powerful parliament speaker, has criticized the "inefficient management of the administration" during the COVID-19 crisis, accusing it of "concealment of reality, unprofessional optimism, and failure to use public and operational capacities across the country."
In another key narrative, Tehran presents the coronavirus as an opportunity toward establishing a new world order. According to administration spokesman Ali Rabeie:
Today, the role of the U.S. in the international system is unilateral with economic, political, and military pressure. But in the post-corona era, we may encounter a multilateral world in which the truth is not based on American discourse. We can create a dialogue between Iran and the world for a system of truth production in the new era.
Javan, a daily close to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, has similarly written that "in the post-corona era, the shape of the international system has created golden opportunities in favor of the Islamic Republic." It added: "If we make utmost use of the opportunities, Iran will become one of the main actors in the post-corona world. If the West wants to avoid the path of collapse and isolation, they must reform their relations with the East (China, Russia, and Iran)."
While the Rouhani administration's "corona-diplomacy" has not translated into an easing of the White House's "maximum pressure" campaign, hardliners in Tehran have reiterated their opposition to talks with Washington, contenting themselves with what they see as a post-coronavirus era on the horizon where their own geopolitical preferences — i.e. a world order with a declining United States — are being fulfilled.

Reviving travel in the COVID-19 era: Assessing the challenges
The American travel ban on Europeans felt much more arbitrary and also allowed for much less exceptions... It reinforced the feeling that the American passport is stronger than the European passports. [The announcement of AUKUS] came on the back of a very difficult summer transatlantically for Joe Biden. [Lifting the ban, which only applies to vaccinated travelers, still excludes many countries where the vaccine is not yet easily available or recognized by the U.S. The administration is also working through a backlog of visas, which were halted during the ban.]

Religious & Spiritual Life Resources
The Office of Religious & Spiritual Life offers additional resources for the Goucher Community to explore. Local resources, worldview blogs and podcasts, and other helpful links are available for you to review below.
The Baltimore area is rich in religious and spiritual communities and experiences, as well as rich religious and interreligious history. For example, the first Roman Catholic Cathedral in the United States is the Baltimore Basilica.
We also have a near neighbor, the Institute for Islamic, Jewish, and Christian Studies.
"Founded in 1987 in Baltimore, Maryland, by an interfaith group of clergy and lay leaders, the ICJS emerged out of the conviction that centuries of religious ignorance, fear, and hostility could be disarmed through deliberate, interfaith study and conversation. The ICJS is one of the few free-standing interfaith organizations in the country unaffiliated with a university or specific religious denomination."
There is also history of religious and racial discrimination in Baltimore housing, known as red-lining. Not in My Neighborhood by Antero Pietila explores this in depth.

Paddled the Assabet River yesterday in the town of Stow which, coincidentally, was conducting a town-wide spring cleanup of its own. That explained the bright yellow trash bags seen driving to and from Magazu's Landing.
After launching I headed upriver against a fairly strong current. Water levels were high and thus trash was on the move.
Early on in the paddle I encountered more empty mouthwash bottles which unfortunately are almost always seen between Sudbury Road and Route 62 in Gleasondale. There were 23 such bottles today bringing the total so far this year (2016) to 42. That's a lot of mouthwash in 2.5 miles of river!
Wildlife seen were mallards, wood ducks, Canada geese, mute swans, turkey vultures, woodpeckers, turtles, and a red-tailed hawk.
Passage thru the box-culvert to Fort Meadow Brook wasn't in the cards due to the lack of adequate headroom.
This view is looking east towards Maynard and Acton. Immediately to the rear of the photo were 2 bridges over the Assabet that brought trains to the Rock Bottom Station on Railroad Ave. A photograph of this station and the nearby Humphrey Brigham shoe factory can be seen in Stow (Images of America series) by Lewis Halprin, Barbara Sipler, and the Stow Historical Society (1999). This once bustling locale looks pretty sleepy these days.
...I turned about and headed back to the takeout.
...found happily floating along. It still had rubber stopper in place and most likely dates from 1951. Can only wonder why it decided to go floating about yesterday. Wanderlust?

"Dakar 2020 was insane!"
After getting a first taste of the Dakar a year ago, rising star Austin Jones can't wait for a second tilt at the world's biggest (and no doubt craziest) rally. The talented American is only 24 years old, yet he is among the favourites in the SSV class, where he will be lining up alongside 2018 champion co-driver Gustavo Gugelmin. After an impressive debut showing with Kellon Walch in 2020, 'AJ' has traded South Racing Can-Am for the Monster Energy Can-Am factory team, who are out to defend their title following Casey Currie's victory a year ago. Offroad racing runs in Austin's blood; his father Jesse has been competing in desert events for the past 20 years and runs the Jones Motorsport team. AJ therefore spent his childhood learning the ins and outs of racing, although it was only in 2018 that he got behind the wheel himself, after spending a year as his dad's co-driver. A proud Jesse admits that he has been having the "time of his life" sharing his knowledge and experience with AJ, and says that seeing his son win is better than winning himself. In his first full season, Austin teamed up with Bryce Swaim and they took the SCORE International championship by storm, claiming victories at the Baja 500 and Baja 1000 in the Trophy Truck Spec class. He took his first steps in rally raid towards the end of 2018, participating in Baja Aragon and the Morocco Rally. In 2019 he achieved top-5 finishes at the Silk Way Rally and Morocco before taking the plunge with Kellon at the Dakar, coming 8th overall in the SSVs and finishing as the second-best rookie after Axel Alletru. Having first heard about the rally thanks to American racing legend Robby Gordon, AJ is now keen to follow in the footsteps of Currie and Ricky Brabec, who became the USA's first Dakar champions in 2020. His ultimate goal is to stand on the top step of the podium, even if he knows that you need very strong performances and a healthy slice of luck to win the Dakar.
A.J.: "The experience of Dakar 2020 was amazing. We were in a really good spot about halfway through, but then we had a bunch of mechanical problems, stuff that was out of our control. It was a bummer to have some of the bad luck we did, but we've got it all dialled in now. Last year was amazing, the size of the entire event really blew me away, the scale of the organisation, how worldwide of an event it is, the adventure. F***, it was insane! We went really far through one of the world's biggest countries. This year, mentally, I'm much more prepared for it. Basically, I have a better idea of what's about to happen. We're ready to go, I'm excited to go. We raced in Qatar in February, and we did Andalucia. Other than that we haven't done many rallies, just lots of training and testing in the USA and Portugal. Gustavo rode with me in Qatar and Andalucia, and we worked very well in the car together. He's a very good navigator, obviously, and with all his experience and knowledge he complements my driving pretty well. Saudi Arabia is extremely similar to Arizona. We don't have dunes here where I live, like they do in California, but the desert, the rocks, the sharpness of the rock, and the openness of Saudi, it's very similar to the west coast of the USA, and down in Mexico. My dad raced down in Mexico, doing Baja 1000, Mint 400, Trophy Trucks… he was a three-time champion back in his day. I grew up being in the desert a lot, being in the pits and seeing the guys work on the cars, learning how it all works. I'm not going to lie, I'm not very experienced. Last year was my first Dakar, and this only is my third complete year. As far along as we are, it's still pretty new, I'm still figuring it out. Casey winning the SSVs last year adds a strange kind of pressure -the American in the Monster Energy Can-Am won last year, so the American in the Monster Energy Can-Am should win this year, right? We're going to have to fight, and it'll be a long, gruelling race. But obviously our goal is to do as well as possible. Winning would be amazing, and we'll certainly do everything we can. If we can have clean runs every day, and avoid the mistakes, then hopefully we'll do well."

Gradually add in dry ingredients.. Mix until just incorporated. Spread half the batter in the baking dish. Add the mashed cranberry sauce as the middle layer and swirl lightly into bottom layer. Add the rest of the batter for the top layer. Sprinkle chopped walnuts on the top. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. While the cake cools, make your icing.
In a small bowl combine the confectioner's sugar and milk. Mix until smooth. Drizzle over warm cake. Allow to cool completely before serving.
do a half and half mixture of 2 cup white flour and 1 cup wheat flour.
* Make your own buttermilk by adding 1 tbl vinegar or lemon juice to milk. Let sit for 5 minutes. The vinegar/lemon juice will cause the milk to turn into buttermilk. Easy peasy!

That looks delicious and your daughter is precious! I"m going to have to attempt to make this. My husband loves all things baked and this is right up his alley. Thanks for sharing with us!
Looks delicious, and your little one is so very precious, with the most beautiful hair!
I'd love to try this for Christmas morning, but what else would you serve with it? Also do you think you could cut the sugar and still have it taste good?
This looks yummy! I want to try this using Blanched Almond Flour and instead of sugar I will be substituting SomerSweet which is far better for you than sugar. Also, diabetic friendly.

Eric Harry Daly on 31st December, 2012 wrote:
Henry Angel is the son of Wiliam Angel and Mary Shering/Shearan born in Salisbury, England. Lacking formal education and a marksman all his life Angel became a skilled farm worker. At 26, with a life sentence from the Warwick Assizes in July 1817, he was transported in the Neptune and arrived at Sydney on 5 May 1818. In 1824 he was one of six servants assigned to accompany Hamilton Hume and William Hovell on their journey of exploration in which they discovered the River Murray. Both leaders testified to Angel's ability in managing working horses and cattle and attributed part of their success to his careful planning of transport arrangements. On his return he was rewarded with a pair of bullocks and a ticket-of-leave for the Illawarra district. On 3 September 1834 at a schoolhouse near Wollongong he married the young widow, Mary Ledwidge (b. Hawkesbury River, 1812), daughter of 'John' Brooker, farmer, and Mary Wade, and in 1839 began buying small sections of farming land in Illawarra.
In October 1840 Angel was granted a conditional pardon and soon afterwards, when squatting was rapidly spreading in New South Wales, he and John Rae took up the rights to Uardry station on the saltbush plains of the lower Murrumbidgee. In 1844 he rented his Illawarra farm and moved with his ever-increasing family to the Riverina. Like most inland stations Uardry was first stocked with cattle, and in the 1840s Angel periodically set off for Sydney, 450 miles (724 km) distant, with a ton of cheese. On such trips he invariably spent a night with Hamilton Hume near Yass. Despite early difficulties, including trouble with Aboriginals, Angel remained at the Heavenly Plain until the early 1860s when he sold the station leasehold and moved to Spring Vale, in the more settled district near Lake Albert, south of Wagga Wagga, where he lived and worked until his death on 17 December 1881, at the age of 91.
With his remarkable energy and endurance he was described by James Gormly as 'one of the most reliable, honest, industrious men … abstemious, persevering and full of resource'. In his will he remarked how hard and long he had worked to gain his estate of several thousand acres and earnestly besought his children not to mortgage or part with it easily. On his death he left several dwellings, some dozen oddly-named pieces of land varying from 80 (32 ha) to 1000 acres (405 ha) each and many town lots scattered along the family track from Wollongong to Hay.
The fertility of the Angels was a byword in the Wagga Wagga district. Besides two children from her first marriage, Mary Angel bore eight sons and eight daughters to Henry; she died in 1890 leaving 13 children, 90 grandchildren and 49 great-grandchildren. Angel and his wife were buried in the Church of England section of the Wagga Wagga cemetery.

Fruhroter Veltliner – is a red wine grape variety which exists in Austria.
Frühroter Veltliner is one famous red wine grape variety which finds its origin and existence in the regions of Austria.
This red wine grape variety is mainly grown and cultivated in the Weinviertel district of the Lower Austria. This grape variety is pink-skinned as to its appearance.
Apart from Austria, this grape variety is grown and cultivated throughout the regions of central as well as Western Europe.
Though this grape variety shares a very similar name to that of Gruner Veltliner, but it is to be noted that this grape is nowhere related to Gruner Veltliner and possesses all the qualities that are distinctive in its very own self.
Another important thing about this grape variety is that Frühroter Veltliner is not an original variety of grape. On the contrary, this grape variety is a cross performed in between Silvaner and Roter Veltliner.
This grape does not particularly demand any specific location and is very much resistant to both the winter as well as late frosts.
The grape of the vines of Frühroter Veltliner ripens very early if we compare it to other varieties of red wine grape. The resulting wines are very much neutral in nature.
Their content of alcohol is slightly on a higher scale if we compare it to other regular wines. The acidity of these wines falls on a lower scale.
The wines prepared out of this red wine grape variety are also considered to be somewhat herbaceous as well as light lemony in nature along with a few notes of almond.
This variety of red wine grape accounts only 0.9 percent of the total vineyards of Austrian today. The plantation of the vines of Frühroter Veltliner is slowly diminishing.
Moreover, in the recent years the plantation and cultivation of this red wine grape variety has been declined in the favour of more fashionable varieties of red wine grape such as Riesling and Gruner Veltliner.
This practice usually occurs when the grape variety becomes fussy. However, this is not the case with this grape variety since it can perform very well on a range of variety of terroirs.
The only challenge faced by this red wine grape variety is that this grape variety buds very early if we compare it to other grapes and because of this property this grape is very much vulnerable to spring frosts.
This variety of red wine grape is related to a number of important varieties of Austrian grapes. This grape variety shares Roter Veltliner as a parent along with the Zierfandler as well as Thermenregion's Rotgipfler grape varieties.
At the same time, this grape variety is considered as a sibling to Neuburger which is nothing, but another Austrian grape variety, not so famous.
Apart from, Austria, there are many other regions of the world that are concerned with the plantation and cultivation of Fruhroter Veltline.
In the regions of France and Italy, it is permitted in the vineyards of Savoie as well as Alto Adige. At the same time, this grape variety also covers a small portion of land in the region of Czech Republic.
Frühroter Veltliner is known to the world under a number of names. In France, it is referred to as Malvoisie Rouge d'Italie. In Germany, it is known as Fruhroter Malvasier and Roter Malvasier.
In Italy, this grape variety is known under the name of Veltliner, whereas in Czech, it is known under the name of Veltlinske Cervene Rane.
This variety of red wine grape has been originated in Austria, particularly in the region of Niederosterreich. Other studies claim that this grape variety is most probably originated in the region of Gumpoldskirchen in Austria.
This variety of red wine grape is considered to be producing various flavoursome and tasteful wines. In fact, Frühroter Veltliner produces the wines that are fruity and powerful along with a bit of spice as well as hint of almonds when they are made into Eiswein.
These wines possess the colour similar to golden straw. They exhibit aromas of melon, peach custard as well as cashew nougat on a silky and a round entry to a relatively dry, light to medium body along with a note of crisp orange.
These wines are gently acidic wines and they present a bouquet which is herbaceous along with bitter almonds and whiffs of flowers.
The wines prepared out of Frühroter Veltliner taste their best when they are paired with steamed mussels with garlic and poached trout.

When the breeders started looking for the best Indica to mix with a high-CBD variety, Black Domina seeds were the top choice. Its genetic profile consists of Northern Lights, Ortega, Hash Plant and Afghani — all legendary strains popular for their relaxing effects. By crossing it with an unspecified CBD variant, a cannabidiol-rich version of Black Domina with a 1:1 THC to CBD ratio was created.
The hybrid produces only a modest cerebral buzz and minimal impairment with racing thoughts and jittery impulses highly unlikely. Without these potential hinderances, which are usually associated with e strains, users retain self-control and functionality. Besides, flying high is hardly missed as the bud shares a more profound sense of bliss and overall calm.
Having equal amounts of CBD and THC (1:1 ratio) is said to make this strain highly effective in relieving chronic pain, spasticity, insomnia, nausea and vomiting, as well as poor appetite. It's thought that CBD may even kill specific cancer cells and inhibit tumor growth. Bear in mind, though, that due to its 8 to 10% THC level, it's best used by reasonably experienced tokers.
CBD Black Domina is also aesthetically satisfying and very straightforward to grow. Its deep green and plum leaves appear almost black, giving any garden an air of elegance. At the same time, its Indica-esque features make it a sturdy plant that's forgiving of small errors. These feminized seeds from Homegrown Cannabis Co. all but eliminate the chance of male plants popping up, which makes for a far less complicated grow that's still just as rewarding when harvest arrives.
Growing CBD Black Domina Feminized Seeds
CBD Black Domina's dark prune and green leaves give the plant a sophisticated and mystifying beauty. Although the aesthetic does not increase its potency in any way, it does give it extra bag appeal. Apart from its obvious physical attractiveness, it also possesses the abundant resin production of Northern Lights, and its share of incredible Afghani genetics allows it to develop high concentrations of sesquiterpenes, said to enhance both its recreational and therapeutic effects.
CBD Black Domina boasts the vigorous growth of its Indica pedigree. It doesn't get much taller than about 3 to 4 feet, so it doesn't need a lot of vertical space, but its foliage will need an occasional trim. The plant is naturally resistant to pathogens, and it produces loads of compact, dense buds.
To make the most of CBD Black Domina, it should be cultivated in a controlled environment. The temperature must be around 70 to 80°F to help it develop comfortably. During the course of its 7 to 9 weeks of flowering, the humidity should be maintained between 40 and 50% RH level. For maximum yield, grow at least 4 of these plants in a Sea of Green (SOG) setup and you could achieve a harvest of 1.31 to 1.96 ounces per square foot.
If the outdoor conditions are ideal, CBD Black Domina can be grown al fresco. The plant does especially well in a Mediterranean-type climate such as California, Italy, Spain, Australia and Northern Africa, where each one can yield up to 14 ounces. If timed correctly, harvest rolls in around early-to-mid October in the northern hemisphere.
CBD Black Domina emanates a refreshing earthiness akin to the smell of soil following rain. Hashy with an invigorating twist, the musty element also comes with fruity, woody, and spicy pepper-like notes.
Recreational use of cannabis is often associated with soaring cerebral flight. However, high THC strains can sometimes produce overwhelming thoughts and emotions, as well as jumpiness, which disrupts relaxation. For this reason, 'intense' is not always synonymous with 'best', especially if achieving a peaceful evening is the priority.
CBD Black Domina is perfect for tokers with such needs. It induces an incredibly calming head to foot influence and a modest mental buzz that clears the mind of any troubles, all the while instilling a sense of contentment and happiness. On the physical side, a tingling sensation can be felt at the outset, announcing the spread of the tranquilizing effects. Then, a strong feeling of drowsiness and, ultimately, deep sleep follows after an hour or two.
High-THC variants, despite their potential health benefits, may produce unfavorable side effects such as lightheadedness, heightened anxiety and episodes of paranoia. CBD Black Domina, on the other hand, contains high levels of CBD, which counteracts the psychotropic activity of THC and leads to a less intense high.
Although the bud brings only a gentle euphoria, it's said to have robust anxiolytic and antidepressant traits. It may ease stress, anxiety, bipolar disorder and depression, as well as potentially calming ADHD.
Physical comfort is included in CBD Black Domina's medicinal portfolio as well. Its relaxing influence comes with potent analgesic properties that may mitigate symptoms of multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, migraines, arthritis, PMS and many others. At the same time, its anti-inflammatory agents may reduce swelling.
It's also said to improve appetite, leading to improved nutrient absorption. Then, after an hour or two, the sedating effect kicks in, and this may be particularly useful to insomniacs. Once drowsiness manifests, the countdown to deep sleep starts.

Exclusive! In Conversation With The Forgotten Army Stars Sharvari And Sunny Kaushal
by Analita Seth | January 13, 2021, 14:17 IST
Taking off from a documentary he made 20 years ago, Kabir Khan's The Forgotten Army: Azaadi Ke Liye is a five-episode web-series streamed on Amazon Prime from January 2020. It's an ode to the 'forgotten' soldiers of the Netaji Subhash Chandra-led Indian National Army, who sought to overthrow the British government after World War II. The lesser known story of the Rani of Jhansi regiment, the first female infantry in the world, is another pillar of the narrative. While at its core, The Forgotten Army is the love story of Colonel Surinder Sodhi (Sunny Kaushal) and Maya Srinivasan (Sharvari) in times of war, it also raises questions about identity, independence and the idea of motherland… Shot across Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia and also Mumbai… the series, say Sunny and Sharvari, is not about winning or losing. Rather it's about investing in what you believe in – be it love or war…
When did you decide to become an actor?
Sharvari: There was no moment of epiphany as such. As a child, I always loved to be on stage and perform. In school, I'd attend drama classes. I always wanted to be an actor. But when I won the Fresh Face competition in 2014, it set the ball rolling.
Sunny Kaushal: I was pursuing Chartered Accountancy. But I've always been inclined towards the performing arts. We used to take part in cultural festivals. Our dad (action director Sham Kaushal), being in a creative profession, had erratic hours of work. So a 9 to 5 job was never on my mind. When I was about to clear my graduation, I realised I didn't want to be a CA. I had a soul-searching moment. I realised I enjoyed entertaining people. I dropped plans of becoming a CA and decided to join the industry.
The definition of the Hindi film hero and heroine has changed. Is it tougher to make a mark today?
Sharvari: Everyone is working hard and giving their 100 per cent. That's the only way to be successful. I guess this question would be answered better by someone, who was part of commercial cinema and is now moving into unconventional lanes. In fact, it's exciting to make a debut in such times.
Sunny: I agree with Sharvari. Cinema has always been a medium to share good stories. What was once considered as art cinema is now part of the mainstream. It's the audience that has changed. The audience is accepting real stories and wants to see real people on screen. They want to relate to what they see on screen. It's progression and evolution of art.
How did The Forgotten Army come to both of you?
Sharvari: I was auditioning with Mukesh Chhabra. There were a lot of people and we didn't know that we were called to audition for The Forgotten Army. We found out later about the project and that it was being directed by Kabir Khan. There was a shortlist round where Kabir sir had chosen two to three actors per character. Mukesh sir and he tested each actor. Luckily, Sunny, Rohit (Chaudhury) and I auditioned together. We bagged the parts of Lieutenant Sodhi, Arshad and Maya respectively.
Sunny: I was shooting for Gold in Patiala when I got a call from Mukesh Chhabra. He told me about the web series and that it was being directed by Kabir Khan. During
the fourth round of auditions, I had to say the lines, "Hindustan hamari kurbani ko yaad rakhega, samajh nahi payega par yaad zaroor rakhega." We three were grouped together and luckily got selected.
Tell us something about your characters…
Sharvari: My character Maya is a photographer. She hears Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose's speech and makes up her mind to join the Azad Hind Fauj. She's part of the Rani of Jhansi regiment, which was a one-of-its-kind made up by female soldiers.
Sunny: I play Lieutenant Surender Sodhi in the British Indian Army. He believes his army is the British Indian Army and doesn't give the freedom struggle much thought. When the Japanese army takes over them, the prisoners of war are given two choices. To either remain in the camps or join the Azad Hind Fauj and fight to free your motherland. He joins the army only to survive. Later, he realises what it actually means. After Netaji's speech and with Maya's help,
he realises that civilians from another country, who have never seen India, are so passionate about freeing the country.
Is the series relevant in the current political scenario of the country?
Sharvari: The current political situation of the country is sensitive. It would be disrespectful to comment without having complete knowledge and knowing the complete picture.
Sunny: The INA fought for freedom. They fought for the rights of the country and for it to be free. People from every generation can relate to that and find it relevant. No country is ever perfect. It has to evolve and we have to work towards it. Even if the country is not amidst political unrest, there will always be something to fight for. That's the story. It's not about winning or losing. It's about investing in what you believe in.
What did you learn from each other during The Forgotten Army?
Sharvari: I've imbibed a love for hardcore Punjabi music from Sunny. No matter what the situation, he will have a Punjabi song for it. Now, I'm hooked to it. I listen to so much of it and yet have no clue what they're saying. But I absolutely love it.
Sunny: I saw her on the first day and I was blown away. She's so relentless with what she wants to do. It was so inspiring to watch that. She's also not afraid of telling people what she feels. She doesn't turn rude or throw a tantrum. But she does get assertive.
How has Amazon Prime changed the viewing experience?
Sharvari: For viewers, it's a blessing. Whether you're at home or travelling, you can watch something interesting on Amazon Prime. It's a time saver. It also lets one explore genres and actors. It's not always mainstream. It's totally content- driven. For actors, it means more work. For viewers it offers more content to watch. There's something for everyone at home and on
one platform.
Sunny: Amazon Prime has completely changed the game. Many believe that the OTT format will take over cinema, which I don't. Because 70mm is 70mm. There are things that you can only enjoy on the big screen. But yes many people, including me, wait for some movies to drop on these platforms. It's all about convenience. It provides so much more for the audience to consume. It widens your perspective. That's why cinema is also changing so rapidly. It has encouraged a change in content.
Sharvari, how does it feel to be part of Bunty Aur Babli 2…
As a young girl, I thought of it as a cult film. I'm a huge fan of Rani (Mukerji) ma'am. To be part of the franchise, is extremely exciting. It's been great fun to shoot it too. It's relevant in today's day and age
Sunny, your recent film, Bhangra Paa Le, won you praise. How has the mainstream space been for you?
It's fortunate that I'm playing varied characters. My other two films, Dinesh Vijan's love story Shiddat and the socio-political Hurdang, directed by Nikhil Bhatt are different too. It's an exciting time to be an actor.
Sunny, how do you feel about being compared to brother Vicky Kaushal?
I do not fear being compared to Vicky (Kaushal). Even the reviews of The Forgotten Army aren't comparing his act in Uri: The Surgical Strike with mine. Most of them are just happy that both of us are doing good stories and films. In terms of him making a mark, I'm proud of him. I have seen the hard work he puts in. I don't feel a sense of competition at all. Ultimately, it's your own journey and the trajectory is yours to make.
If you were to pick a character you'd wish to play...
Sharvari: I'd love to portray Alia Bhatt's character in Raazi.
I completely fell in love with Sehmat and what Alia did with her. I wish I'd auditioned for the role.
Sunny: I'd want to play Aamir Khan's character DJ from Rang De Basanti. There was something so endearing about him. At one point he is this casual guy and the next moment, he wants to change the world. A man, who suddenly discovers himself and is ready to give his life for the cause… it was so beautiful to see that.

David de Gea's response when asked if Manchester United FC can stop Manchester City
The Reds keeper was talking ahead of the big derby clash at Old Trafford
Ciaran KellyNewcastle United writer
David de Gea says it's not just about whether Manchester United can stop Manchester City but, rather, whether Pep Guardiola's side will be able to fend off the challenge of Jose Mourinho's team.
United currently lie eight points off their bitter rivals in the Premier League table ahead of the huge derby clash on Sunday, which is seen as a must-win game for the home side.
The positions Manchester United need to strengthen to win the Premier League title
City have won 13 league games in a row and have 43 points from their opening 15 league games, one of only two sides ever to do so.
But, fresh from an incredible individual performance against Arsenal, de Gea has no fear ahead of facing the Premier League's top scorers.
"Well, can City stop United as well, no?" he told Sky Sports' Thierry Henry when asked if United could stop City.

"We play at home, with the fans, a special game of course, it's a derby. We are confident, we feel really strong and we want to win."
United head into the derby off the back of impressive away wins against both Watford and Arsenal, and they have not tasted defeat at Old Trafford for a record-equalling 40 games report the MEN.
How Manchester United FC can beat Manchester City
City were the last away side to emerge victorious at Old Trafford, way back in September, 2016, but de Gea is feeling confident.
"The team is we are in a really really good moment," he added.
"We won two away games, difficult games, so we are confident, we are strong, we know we play an important game and, like I said before, we really want to win."
