The 1949 SMU Mustangs football team was an American football team that represented Southern Methodist University (SMU) as a member of the Southwest Conference (SWC) during the 1949 college football season. In their 12th and final season under head coach Matty Bell, the Mustangs compiled a 5–4–1 record (2–3–1 against conference opponents) and outscored opponents by a total of 215 to 204. The team opened the season, 5–1–1, and reached No. 10 in the AP Poll, but lost the final three games of the season and ended up unranked. The team played its home games at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas.

Backs Doak Walker and Kyle Rote were selected by both the Associated Press (AP) and United Press (UP) on the 1949 All-Southwest Conference football team.

If you listen closely you'll hear that the coast is calling.
With a plethora of new Gold Coast developments hitting the market in early 2018, our launch of Naia Mermaid Beach proved to be a standout, achieving exceptional registrations, impressive sales at launch and strong ongoing interest.
Naia is a study in understated sophistication.
A perfect balance of coastal lifestyle and urban vibrancy.
The appeal of the project was driven by a highly customised marketing solution across all media channels, including a powerful social media campaign which captured the imagination of many people.


I must say that the claims made in this article are setting off very loud SKEPTIC'S ALERT!
I'm going to need a lot more confirmed and verified evidence from multiple sources and authorities. Before I consider these results as tenable facts.
this article says 'humans', which is patently false. the abstract in Nature correctly uses the terms 'premodern hominins' & 'archaic hominins' (https://www.natur...0072-8). who writes these summaries for phys dot org?
Another nail in the coffin of the ridiculous Africa-centric life origin story.
TB, I'm not sure if I understand your comment.
Did you mean that the tool users alleged in this article, were not Human?
Do you mean that Humans originated outside of Africa? And that the more evolutionary evolved, advanced human tribes pioneered occupation of uninhabited Africa?
Or do you mean the ark crash landed on the wrong hilltop? And they never did figure out who to blame for forgetting to board the unicorns and dinosaurs?
no one in the field questions that **all** hominids originated out of Africa. new evidence suggests many different migrations from Africa starting 1.7 million years ago, and then much interbreeding between the many distant hominid cousins (like humans and Neanderthals) when those populations met again years or hundreds of thousands of years later.

Acute management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction in a tertiary hospital in Kenya: are we complying with practice guidelines?

Internal Medicine (East Africa)
Introduction: Current practice guidelines emphasize the importance of rapid reperfusion of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The aim of this study was to evaluate the current rate of compliance with evidence-based practice guidelines for the management of STEMI patients at a tertiary hospital in Kenya.
Methods: This was a retrospective chart review. Data on patient characteristics, emergency treatment, and outcomes were collected on adults admitted with a diagnosis of STEMI from January 2012 to February 2013.
Results: Data were collected for 45 patient presentations. There were 37 male patients (82%). The mean age was 59.7 ± 3.8 years. Of the 45 patients, 23 were Asian (51%), 18 were Black (40%) and four were Caucasian (9%). Thirty-five patients (78%) presented within 12 h of symptom onset. Within 10 min of arrival to the hospital, 40 patients (89%) had electrocardiographs performed and 39 patients (87%) were reviewed by a doctor. Medications given on presentation were aspirin (98%), clopidogrel (91%) and anticoagulants (73%). All patients received reperfusion therapy. Twenty-eight patients (62%) received fibrinolytic therapy and 17 patients (38%) had primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Door-to-needle time of43% of the cases. Door-to- balloon time was29% of the cases. All the patients survived to hospital discharge. The average length of stay was 5.3 ± 1.0 days. In-hospital complications occurred in six patients (13.3%). These included bleeding (three patients), stroke (one patient) and cardiogenic shock requiring intra- aortic balloon pump support (two patients).
Conclusion: Whereas the majority of STEMI patients are evaluated within 10 min of presentation, less than 50% receive reperfusion therapy within the recommended time frame. While there are attempts to comply with evidence based guidelines in resource-limited settings, there is a need to improve acute care systems to target early reperfusion of STEMI patients.

Q: Is it possible to have an default uuid value which could show that the uuid is not valid I am creating a case class. I want to define default values to its fields. One of the fields in uuid. What could be a default value I could give it to signify that the user didn't give an uuid?
So far I have used Option[UUID] which works but it made me wonder if there could be some default value of UUID as well?

A: The main purpose of the Option class is to deal with values that may or may not be present. So in the case where a uuid may or may not be provided, using Option[UUID] is the correct approach. This is better than picking one UUID to mean "undefined".

65th Anniversary of the European Convention on Human Rights
9th November 2015 /0 Comments/in Latest News /by Martina Quinn
Last week marked the 65th anniversary of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, better known as the European Convention on Human Rights.
The Convention was signed in Rome on 4th November 1950 by 12 member states of the Council of Europe. It entered into force on 3rd September 1953, becoming the first instrument to give effect and binding force to certain rights stated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The Convention marked a milestone in the development of international law because it was the first treaty to establish a supranational organ to ensure the States that had signed the Convention fulfilled their undertakings. For the first time, an international court was established, which transcended national boundaries and which could challenge decisions taken by courts in individual Member States. This meant that human rights de facto gained precedence over national legislation and practice.
Now, any individual, group of individuals, company or non-governmental organisation can apply to the European Court of Human Rights, provided they have exhausted all domestic remedies.
Furthermore, in order to join the Council of Europe, a State must first sign and ratify the European Convention on Human Rights.
Over the past 65 years, the Convention has brought about significant change. It has rid Europe of the death penalty, prohibited torture, and enshrined fundamental human rights in the legal systems of 47 countries.
Commenting on its anniversary last week, Thorbjørn Jagland, Secretary General of the Council of Europe, said: "It [the Convention] has become the glue which binds the European continent together and it continues to protect essential freedoms through periods of change, conflict and crisis – including freedom of expression, assembly, thought and religion, as well as the right to privacy, fair trial and equality before the law.
"When governments fail to uphold these obligations, the European Court of Human Rights guarantees the right of individual petition to Europe's 820 million citizens. It is no wonder, then, that the Convention system remains a beacon of hope to people around the world."

Nick Cannon apologizes to Jewish community for podcast comments
The TV star apologized for promoting "hateful propaganda and stereotypical rhetoric."
Nick Cannon took to Twitter on Wednesday evening (July 15) to apologize to the Jewish community for his "hurtful and divisive words." The TV star was fired from ViacomCBS this week after making comments on his "Cannon's Class" podcast that the company accused of being anti-Semitic.
"First and foremost I extend my deepest and most sincere apologies to my Jewish sisters and brothers for the hurtful and divisive words that came out of my mouth during my interview with Richard Griffin," Cannon tweeted. "They reinforced the worst stereotypes of a proud and magnificent people and I feel ashamed of the uninformed and naïve place that these words came from."
"I want to express my gratitude to the Rabbis, community leaders and institutions who reached out to me to help enlighten me, instead of chastising me," he wrote. "I want to assure my Jewish friends, new and old, that this is only the beginning of my education—I am committed to deeper connections, more profound learning and strengthening the bond between our two cultures today and every day going forward."
As reported by REVOLT, Viacom accused Cannon of promoting "hateful speech" and "anti-Semitic conspiracy theories" during the episode.
"On my podcast I used words & referenced literature I assumed to be factual to uplift my community instead turned out to be hateful propaganda and stereotypical rhetoric that pained another community," Cannon wrote on Twitter. "For this I am deeply sorry but now together we can write a new chapter of healing."
On Wednesday (July 15), Fox announced that Cannon would not be fired from "The Masked Singer," where he acts as host and executive producer.
"He is clear and remorseful that his words were wrong and lacked both understanding and context, and inadvertently promoted hate," a statement from the broadcast company read. "This was important for us to observe. Nick has sincerely apologized, and quickly taken steps to educate himself and make amends. On that basis and given a belief that this moment calls for dialogue, we will move forward with Nick and help him advance this important conversation, broadly."
See Cannon's apology below.

Obama and the Bombing of Hiroshima
Later this month, Barack Obama will become the first sitting US president to visit the city of Hiroshima, Japan. The dropping of an atomic bomb on Hiroshima by the American military on August 6, 1945, and the destruction three days later of the Japanese city of Nagasaki, rank among the greatest war crimes of the 20th century.One would think that after 71 years, the United States would finally be prepared to acknowledge that the incineration of two defenseless Japanese cities, causing some 200,000 deaths, was a militarily unnecessary act.Nothing of the sort will happen. Obama "will not revisit the decision ...
Mass Grave of History: The Vatican's WWII Identity Crisis
The controversy over the canonization of Pope Pius XII concerns whether he spoke out enough against the slaughter of Jews during World War II. But that question is a red herring when trying to grasp the big picture of the Vatican's role during the war. The real question is whether the Vatican supported the world order, or at least aspects of it, that the Third Reich promised to bring, a world order in which dead Jews were collateral damage - which Pius indeed regretted. The answer can be found in a region of Europe that is generally ignored despite being ...
The Peace Treaty of Westphalia (1648) and Its Consequences for International Relations
International relations (IR) from the mid-17th century to the mid-20th century were founded on the decisions by the Peace Treaty of Westphalia in 1648 that ended the Thirty Years War. However, from the beginning of the 21st century, the IR are once again more and more framed by the international standards established in 1648.The Thirty Years War (1618−1648)This (First Pan-European) war was a confessional-political conflict, in essence, between the Protestant and the Roman Catholic leaders with very catastrophic consequences in population losses and material destructions as, for instance, the German lands lost approximately one-third of its pre-war population with some ...
A Croatian Role in the Destruction of Yugoslavia in the 1990s (II)
Part I The basic cornerstones of the Croat ultraright nationalistic ideology From the point of the ideology of the extreme Croat nationalism, the cardinal goal of ultraright nationalistic parties, groups, ideologists and politicians was to create for the first time after 1102 an independent, as much as a Greater and finally "Serben-frei" Croatia. In the 1990s it was an exactly ultraright nationalistic ideology that provided the main background for creation of a new normative order and values in the HDZ's Croatia. This ideology had five cardinal cornerstones which gave the framework for building a new institutional order, political values and means to ...
Pre- and Post-Soviet Language Policy in the East-Baltic States
PrefaceCommon historical feature of the "Three Baltic sister-states" (Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania) is that for most of the modern time instead of the state independence there were the decades of the foreign administrations imposed by several European powers. Such historical experience exposed the people living in this part of the Baltic region to several foreign political regimes, different cultural and linguistic influences. A short period of independence between the two world wars was followed again by the losing of formal political independence. It was not until the dissolution of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s by the decision of ...
The Monster: The US Network of Military Bases
In 2007, the late Prof. Jules Dufour raised concerns about US global deployment of military personnel and its network of military bases. The US views the world, he said, "as a vast territory to conquer, occupy and exploit." "Humanity is being controlled and enslaved" he argued by this network. The US is dividing the world into geographic command units, like US Northcom or US Southcom, proved the US focus on global control. Dufour mentions the International Network for the Abolition of Foreign Military Bases (No Bases Network) as essential in achieving a cohesive, coordinated front against US global control. The No ...
Hitler Was Financed by the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England
The recent resolution of the parliamentary Assembly of the OSCE fully equalizes the role of the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany at the outbreak of the Second World War, except that it had the purely pragmatic purpose of extorting money from Russia on the contents of some of the bankrupt economies, intended to demonize Russia as the successor state to the USSR, and to prepare the legal ground for the deprivation of her right to speak out against revision of results of war. But if we approach the problem of responsibility for the war, then you first need to answer the ...
Canada's Nazi Problem
Vancouver, Canada held a significant event in the history of Canada on January 16th, 2018. Canada's traditional peace-keeping role in international relations relegated to the historical dustbin, Canada's Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland led the 'international community' in a song of war and genocide against North Korea.However, the plan was ultimately not about North Korea, as single-toned as the grouping Freeland gathered tried to make it seem.

The Dirty War on Syria
The following text is the introductory chapter of Professor Tim Anderson's forthcoming book entitled The Dirty War on Syria. Although every war makes ample use of lies and deception, the dirty war on Syria has relied on a level of mass disinformation not seen in living memory. The British-Australian journalist Philip Knightley pointed out that war propaganda typically involves 'a depressingly predictable pattern' of demonising the enemy leader, then demonising the enemy people through atrocity stories, real or imagined (Knightley 2001). Accordingly, a mild-mannered eye doctor called Bashar al Assad became the new evil in the world and, according to consistent ...
In April-May of 1944, the Crimean Tatar battalions took part in battles against the Red Army in the Crimea. The units that were evacuated from the Crimea in June 1944, were compiled into the Tatar mountain-Jaeger three-battalion SS Regiment. A month later, the group became the first Tatar-mountain-Jaeger SS Brigade (2,500 troops) under the command of SS Standartenführer Fortenbah. On 31 December 1944, the unit was disbanded to become a part of the East Turkic branch of SS as the Crimea battle group: two infantry battalions and one hundred horses.German Field Marshal Erich von Manstein testified: "Most of the Crimean ...
A Fascist Hero in "Democratic" Kiev
The incoming Ukrainian president will have to turn some attention to history, because the outgoing one has just made a hero of a long-dead Ukrainian fascist. By conferring the highest state honor of "Hero of Ukraine" upon Stepan Bandera (1909-1959) on January 22, Viktor Yushchenko provoked protests from the chief rabbi of Ukraine, the president of Poland, and many of his own citizens. It is no wonder. Bandera aimed to make of Ukraine a one-party fascist dictatorship without national minorities. During World War II, his followers killed many Poles and Jews. Why would President Yushchenko, the leader of the democratic ...
NATO & the Humanitarian Dismemberment of Yugoslavia
On March 24th, 1999, NATO launched its 78-day round the clock aerial assault on the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia without the approval of the United Nations Security Council. Over a thousand NATO warplanes delivered over 2,000 airstrikes in nearly 40,000 sorties, dropping over 20,000 bombs over the former Yugoslavia, killing thousands of civilian men, women, and children, as well as upwards of a thousand Yugoslav soldiers and police.[1] [2] [3] NATO employed weapons considered criminal by international law such as depleted uranium and cluster bombs.[4] [5] [6] [7]The popular narrative is that is that the Western powers dropped these bombs ...
Bush Family Links to Nazi Germany
"A famous American family" made its fortune from the Nazis, according to John Loftus' documented historical analysis. The Bush family links to Nazi Germany's war economy were first brought to light at the Nuremberg trials in the testimony of Nazi Germany's steel magnate Fritz Thyssen. Thyssen was a partner of George W. Bush's grandfather Prescott Bush: From 1945 until 1949 in Nuremberg, one of the lengthiest and, it now appears, most futile interrogations of a Nazi war crimes suspect began in the American Zone of Occupied Germany. Multibillionaire steel magnate Fritz Thyssen-the man whose steel combine was the cold heart of the Nazi war machine-talked and ...
The 1878 San Stefano Treaty and the Albanians
After the Russian military victory over the Ottoman Empire in the 1877−1878 Russo-Ottoman War it was signed the San Stefano Treaty between these two states on March 3rd, 1878. According to the treaty, a Greater "San Stefano" Bulgaria, under the direct protection by Russia, had to be established within the borders of the Ottoman Empire. However, an idea of "San Stefano Bulgaria" directly affected three Balkan nations: the Serbs, Greeks and Albanians as some of their ethnic and historical territories had to become part of a Greater Bulgaria. The "San Stefano Bulgaria" was projected by the Russian authorities to cover ...
Could Donald Trump already be the worst of all American presidents? In less than two years his record on the world scene has been frightening enough: U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Accords, scuttling of the Iran nuclear treaty, moving the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, unjustifiably punitive sanctions against Russia, Iran, and Venezuela, terror bombing of Mosul and other Iraq cities, bombastic threats against friends and enemies alike – not to mention a $54 billion gift to the Pentagon and stepped-up nuclear "modernization". Hard to imagine much worse. One article of faith among liberals and the corporate media is that ...
Angela Merkel Ignores Otto Von Bismarck's Advice Never to Quarrel with Russia
It has been 200 years since the birth of Otto von Bismarck, the Iron Chancellor who unified Germany. Otto von Bismarck emphasized the importance of good relations with Russia. "The secret of politics? Make a good treaty with Russia", he said. Bismarck was convinced that a European security system without Russia would be impossible and war with Russia would be disastrous. Bismarck had been Prussia's ambassador to the Russian Empire. He was no Russophile, but he had an understanding of the geopolitical situation that almost no politician today possesses. Let's imagine that Bismarck left a letter to the following rulers of Germany, ...
Inside Kosovo's Islamist Cauldron
Kacanik, KOSOVO – A plume of smoke hangs over our table in the corner of a dark, shabby café in this rugged town in southern Kosovo. The lanky 19-year-old sitting next to me is chain-smoking through half a pack of L&Ms, his hands trembling as he recalls how he joined one of the world's most brutal militant Islamist groups.Through his neatly trimmed beard, Adem, who asks me not to use his real name for fear of arrest, says he had never even left Kosovo. But two years ago, he found himself on the perilous and far-off Turkey-Syria border -- a ...
Zionism and Israel
ZionismThe term Zionism is derived from the word Zion that in the Hebrew language and cultural-historical tradition of the Jews refers to the citadel (acropolis) of the city of Jerusalem but as well as to the Kingdom of Heaven. From the matter of politics, Zionism refers to the political-national movement of the European Jews in the very late 19th century for the very purpose to re-create a Jewish homeland in the form of a nation-state in the Middle East – Israel.[i]This Zionist movement was to the great extent expressed as a consequence of the European (mostly West European) anti-Semitic (better ...
Vietnam War and Yemen False Flags
The missile attack on a US ship off the coast of Yemen was a major news event, but the subsequent follow up story, that it may never have happened, was either ignored by mainstream media or intentionally covered up. The whole thing has the same odor as the Gulf of Tonkin incident that never occurred.Does history repeat itself? Sure does seem like it. That is if you compare America's entry into the Vietnam civil war, with America's latest entry into the war in Yemen.Don't be mistaken, we have been at war with Yemen for a year now. America sided with ...
"If we see that Germany is winning we ought to help Russia and if Russia is winning we ought to help Germany, and that way let them kill as many as possible…"Harry S. Truman, 33rd POTUS, 1941Since the end of the Second World War, the bourgeois historiography has tried to distort various incidents in order to vilify Socialism and the USSR. One of these incidents- which has been a "banner" of imperialism's apologists and other anticommunists- is the so-called "Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact"* which was signed in 1939. In it's unscientific, unhistorical effort to equate Communism with Nazism, the bourgeois propaganda presents ...


Back on it with the 30 Day Makeup Challenge! I think Ive decided once and for all that i wont be able to fit in a look each day - after all, this is supposed to be fun - but I am going to keep going and try all of the looks.
Today is Day 5, which is all about sunset makeup! This theme had me dreaming of holidays, tropical islands and cocktails. Because we've just had a few days of nicer weather, I'm suddenly very keen on jetting off somewhere for more of it.
I went for a dramatic peach, gold and purple eye, with metallic peach lips and bronzed cheeks. What do you think? Definitely not my usual pared back look.
The overall effect was much nicer than I thought, so I guess this challenge has taught me to be a little less afraid of using colour on the eyes, where I usually tend to stick to neutrals.
It coincided nicely with the warm sunny weather and this would be a really great look to wear to a festival, perhaps even with added glitter involved!
This look was really one of the more unusual for me just because of the amount of crazy shades! I dont think I'll be rocking orange and purple eye shadow at the office but perhaps I can adopt a more toned down version of this look for normal life.

The French are known for their passion for fine food, and for any devout foodie or fan of inspired local eating, Québec City will not disappoint. Here, the slow food / real food movement is alive and well, and in fact, always has been, trendy or not.
Though famous for hearty Québécois fare like tourtiere (meat pie), poutine (french fries with gravy and cheese curds), baked beans and maple syrup, Québec City's proximity to major agricultural areas means the opportunity to integrate fresh, local foods into its menus.
Take the menu at Chez Boulay-Bistro Boréal in Upper Town. Inspired by Nordic cuisine and the wilderness of northern Canada, here you'll find delightful options like confit goose and duck leg parmentier, potatoes, with mushrooms and fir tree essence, and birch syrup vinaigrette. The staff is knowledgeable about every detail, portions are perfectly sized, and the rustic atmosphere is absolutely charming.
Le Graffiti on Cartier Street is another appetizing choice, recognized for its innovative approach in blending French and Italian cuisine, and for its wine cellar. A lovely spot for a romantic dinner or cozy lunch with friends.
A short drive east of the city lies Île d'Orléans, a small, mostly rural island that is described as both the birthplace of francophones in North America and the Garden of Québec. It is famous for its produce, especially maple syrup, strawberries, apples, and potatoes and for its wineries.
At Confiturerie Tigidou, you'll meet Catherine Trudel and Vincent Paris, who describe themselves as native sorcerers of the Island of Orleans, creative foodies and garden alchemists. Each batch of their jam is hand-crafted, with no pectin or preservatives—just berries, sugar and herbs—and the spacious loft above the jam factory offers a charming, authentic place to stay and experience the island. Dine on seasonal jams in their enchanting shop and pick up some jars to take home – you can't get these anywhere else.
Back in Old Québec, a UNESCO World Heritage site, be sure to stroll the only fortified city north of Mexico and its cobblestone streets. The Old Port farmer's market is open year-round, for a variety of seasonal produce and locally-made products, from delectable baked goods to incredible cheeses (once known primarily for its cheddar and Trappist cheeses like Oka, there are close to 300 varieties being produced in Québec today).
Nearby, at Le Monastère des Augustines, breakfast is taken in silence in keeping with the traditions of the Augustine nuns who founded the space in 1639. Delicious, healthful local and organic fare is featured in the bright and tranquil dining room, where living walls house greens and sprouts. A recent initiative saw the restaurant, along with 5 others, partner with farmers in the region to support sustainable agriculture. All profits from the relationship go back into research and development, like innovative greenhouses for growing produce year-round in cold climates.
Taste your way through Québec City's regional bounty for an inspired wellness travel adventure. Bon appétit!

Girls Just Want to Kick Ass
By Kayla Greet
Originally published in Skill Shot 29
The first time I played ranked competitive pinball was in 2009 at the biennial Shorty's Powder Puff tournament. Like Kristen Daniels, I got hooked into pinball from discovering the simulated Williams Collection for Wii and Playstation that my ex-boyfriend brought home and we sought out physical machines from there. Besides the few female friends I had who were also captivated, most of the people I was meeting in the pinball world were men who were all fiercely cut-throat. Powder Puff sounded like a place where I could enjoy some friendly sport and modesty instead of losing to the guys all the time.
The competition at Powder Puff is certainly combative, though like the majority of events in this hobby/sport, there's a gamut of seriousness in all players involved. Some are there to rub skill in the face of their opponents while others are interested purely in having fun. Women like Heather Willott, who is joining Powder Puff for the first time, says she's really looking forward to hanging out with some of the coolest chicks she's ever met.
Many of the women I've talked to have expressed a love of the social aspect of pinball. People like Mary Pacha and Linda "Cheeseboat" Nasfell started playing through friends who were already involved, which led them to join the Seattle Pinball League shortly after. As Kristen puts it: "I'm stunned by how much pinball has broadened my social circle. I have met so many lovely fun people!" Similarly, Julie Gray got recruited to league play (the Vancouver Regional league or VRPA) after a Shorty's tournament. "That is where I truly learned to enjoy and learn about competitive pinball," Julie explains.
Though the community facet is strong in pinball, on the other side there are plenty of friendly rivalries. Cathy Cartoon says that while she plays her best no matter who she's up against, Claire Sutcliffe has always been her favorite to beat. The International Flipper Pinball Association (IFPA) keeps rankings of over 18,000 players world wide, yet among the top players it isn't until #90 that you find a female player. Helena Walter from Sweden is behind 89 male players although her top position was #22 in '08. On the USA side of things, there's not a female competitor until #174 with Seattle's own Julie Gray.
Julie started meeting serious pinball players around '05 and she remarked that there are far more women players now then when she started. "I was like a goddess then because there really weren't many women at these tournaments. Now the guys all see me as one of them and I don't even think they notice I'm a woman."
Kayla Ellington thinks the gender division is instantly noticeable and states: "I don't see it as inherently negative; just one part of many of the ways our society is structured, combined with natural inclinations." She still has a hard time rationalizing why something like pinball would be more populated by men however, she figures girls haven't been exposed to the arcade world as much and are therefore not as encouraged in this setting.
Shorty's biannual all-girls tournament is certainly the place to change all that. From the ladies I've talked to, many agree that Powder Puff is the best place for your first tournament. Cheeseboat says that she thinks girls are generally more respectful of fellow players, "but there is just as much competitiveness and aggression as there is in co-ed tournaments."
Pinball certainly motivates people to do their best and frustrates them when it doesn't work out. "Sometimes you want to punch a wall, or a game, or a person upon losing because it's really challenging!" Kayla explains. Kristen also has noticed top notch playing amongst the girls of pinball. "I don't expect to have my ass kicked any less. Seattle women pinball players are just as hard to beat as the males," she says.
For some, that drive to do your very best sometimes comes down to being the top female player in the co-ed, or league events. Women like Cheeseboat and Julie often do strive to be the top in their gender, though obviously would prefer to be at the top, period! "Hell, if there was at least one or two females in the IFPA top 10 world rankings, I might feel differently. But with how the pinhead culture currently stands, being top female is something to be damned proud of," says Cheeseboat.
While pinball is considered a sport, it's not one that requires physical strength, so as Kayla puts it, "Why should a male play any better or worse than a female? So why have a female-only tournament?" Though on the other hand this tournament draws girls from as far as Canada and Portland and mixes in the Shorty's regulars who rarely play competitive pinball. "Ultimately," Kayla says, "Powder Puff does more good than harm and should be held up as a legit and awesome tournament." Women like Heather focus on enjoying themselves above all else: "I like to have fun, sometimes I play well, but it has to be fun is the rule I have set."
Cathy suggested we start a women's only pinball league. Or a gang.
The 2013 Powder Puff Tournament takes place May 26 at Shorty's. More info can be found here.

The UFC 234 was held on February 10, 2019 at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia. The main event featured the legendary fighter Anderson Silva and the undefeated Israel Adesanya, after the first headlining of the UFC pay-per-view event of the year was canceled just a few hours prior, due to an hernia and a twisted and collapsed bowel that forced Robert Whittaker —the current champion— to undergo emergency surgery later that day. He was supossed to face middleweight winner Kelvin Gastelum as the main event.
Ryan Spann was also expected to face Jim Crute at the event. However, on January 25, it was reported that Spann was forced to pull out due to a hand injury and was replaced by Sam Alvey. In a similar fashion, Alex Gorgees was expected to face Jalin Turner at the event. However, it was reported that, on January 27, Gorgees was pulled from the card for an undisclosed reason and he was replaced by Callan Potter.

Ocean Beauty harvests salmon off a remote coast in Alaska and ships it via air to Anchorage, Arkansas, and Seattle, Washington. The salmon is then transported as smaller shipments to other states in the U.S. From the harvest to the consumer, there are many switch points, such as high-speed ferries, barges, airports, and finally onto the aircraft. Needless to say, fish is a temperature-sensitive product, and going through many of these handshakes from a remote corner to a supermarket in New York necessitates continuous monitoring. Ocean Beauty faced expensive product losses and was undertaking risks when its product was left unmonitored or mishandled, affecting product quality and consumer health safety.

The Gassmann equation, first described by Fritz Gassmann, is used in geophysics and its relations are receiving more attention as seismic data are increasingly used for reservoir monitoring. The Gassmann equation is the most common way of performing a fluid substitution model from one known parameter.

Procedure
These formulations are from Avseth et al. (2006).

Given an initial set of velocities and densities, , , and  corresponding to a rock with an initial set of fluids, you can compute the velocities and densities of the rock with another set of fluid. Often these velocities are measured from well logs, but might also come from a theoretical model.

Step 1: Extract the dynamic bulk and shear moduli from , , and :

Step 2: Apply Gassmann's relation, of the following form, to transform the saturated bulk modulus:

where  and  are the rock bulk moduli saturated with fluid 1 and fluid 2, and  and  are the bulk moduli of the fluids themselves.

Step 3: Leave the shear modulus unchanged (rigidity is independent of fluid type):

Step 4: Correct the bulk density for the change in fluid:

Step 5: recompute the fluid substituted velocities

Rearranging for Ksat

Given

Let

and

then

Or, expanded

Assumptions

Load induced pore pressure is homogeneous and identical in all pores
This assumption imply that shear modulus of the saturated rock is the same as the shear modulus of the dry rock, .

Porosity does not change with different saturating fluids
Gassmann fluid substitution requires that the porosity remain constant. The assumption being that, all other things being equal, different saturating fluids should not affect the porosity of the rock. This does not take into account diagenetic processes, such as cementation or dissolution, that vary with changing geochemical conditions in the pores. For example, quartz cement is more likely to precipitate in water-filled pores than it is in hydrocarbon-filled ones (Worden and Morad, 2000). So the same rock may have different porosity in different locations due to the local water saturation.

Frequency effects are negligible in the measurements
Gassmann's equations are essentially the lower frequency limit of Biot's more general equations of motion for poroelastic materials. At seismic frequencies (10–100 Hz), the error in using Gassmann's equation may be negligible. However, when constraining the necessary parameters with sonic measurements at logging frequencies (~20 kHz), this assumption may be violated. A better option, yet more computationally intense, would be to use Biot's frequency-dependent equation to calculate the fluid substitution effects. If the output from this process will be integrated with seismic data, the obtained elastic parameters must also be corrected for dispersion effects.

Rock frame is not altered by the saturating fluid
Gassmann's equations assumes no chemical interactions between the fluids and the solids.

From 'Killing Eve' to 'When They See Us,' Emmy Nominations Celebrate Co-Stars in Same Category

The idea that co-stars being submitted on the same acting Emmy ballot will split the vote may have been proven to be a myth.
This year, lead drama performers Sterling K. Brown and Milo Ventimiglia scored their third nominations alongside each other for "This Is Us," while Sandra Oh of "Killing Eve" saw her second nom on the ballot beside her co-star Jodie Comer.
"That we're both in is fantastic because this show is two characters," says Oh. "It's a celebration of it."
"This Is Us" is a traditional ensemble, while "Killing Eve" is more of a two-hander. But both series saw success for their talent this year.
"Sterling and I don't talk about it," Ventimiglia says. "I don't feel either of us are in that competitive space. I think we're both confident that we're satisfied with our jobs and we're really putting our hearts in our jobs."
Over in limited series/TV movie, the ensemble "When They See Us" had leading ladies Aunjanue Ellis and Niecy Nash both make it on the ballot, while in comedy, Christina Applegate scored a nom for "Dead to Me," after she and Linda Cardellini were submitted in the lead comedy actress category.
"The show is a shared effort," Applegate says. She admits she was somewhat sad to receive the nomination alone because she considers herself and Cardellini "a duo, a team."
Seeing multiple performers from the same show sharing space on the Emmy ballot is certainly not a phenomenon unique to this year, but in the recent past it was much more common for actors to be nominated alongside co-stars in the supporting categories than in the lead ones. On the supporting side last year, a trio of "Handmaid's Tale" stars (Alexis Bledel, Ann Dowd, Yvonne Strahovski) were on the drama actress ballot and both Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Peter Dinklage of "Game of Thrones" were on the drama actor ballot (Dinklage went on to win). In comedy, "SNL's" Alec Baldwin and Kenan Thompson were both on the supporting actor ballot and Aidy Bryant, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon were on the supporting actress ballot. Even the limited series/TV movie supporting race just last year saw one project dominate noms: "The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story" supporting actors Ricky Martin, Edgar Ramirez and Finn Wittrock took three of the seven spots on their ballot, while Penelope Cruz and Judith Light took two of the six supporting actress spots.
This year, the supporting categories are also stacked with talent from the same program, as "Game of Thrones" takes its final turn at Emmy bat. Among the HBO epic's record-making 32 nominations are accolades for supporting actors Alfie Allen, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Peter Dinklage, as well as supporting actresses Gwendoline Christie, Lena Headey, Sophie Turner and Maisie Williams.
Similarly in comedy, a trio of actors from "Barry" (Anthony Carrigan, Stephen Root and Henry Winkler) share the supporting ballot, while duos from "Fleabag" (Sian Clifford and Olivia Colman) and "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" (Alex Borstein and Marin Hinkle) are up against each other. For the first time in years, "Saturday Night Live" only eked one player into the supporting races overall (Kate McKinnon).
"When They See Us" also dominated in the limited series/TV movie supporting categories, picking up three noms for the men (Asante Blackk, John Leguizamo and Michael K. Williams) and two for the women (Marsha Stephanie Blake and Vera Farmiga). "I must say I'm rooting for Asante [Blackk]. What he did to me emotionally with his performance for this to be his first performance, first time as a thespian, I've got a special place in my heart for him to reach this level by now. John [Leguizamo] is a vet. I look up to John. He's the reason I had the courage to do this. I hold him in high regard. But it's good to see the next generation being honored by the Academy," says Williams.
So many acting nominations being taken up by so few series furthers the notion that one strong performance in a show inspires others to rise to the same level, resulting in recognition for many. Rather than treating the Emmys as a competition, it's starting to feel more like an overall celebration.

Makkah prepares for Hajj symposium on coexistence and tolerance
MAKKAH: Saudi Arabia's Minister of Hajj and Umrah Dr. Mohammed Salih Bentin will launch the 44th Hajj Grand Symposium on Aug. 5 under the title "Islam: Coexistence and Tolerance."
The two-day symposium at the Hilton Makkah Convention Hotel will include Islamic thinkers and scholars from the Kingdom and other areas of the Islamic world.
Dr. Abdul Fattah bin Suleiman Mashat, deputy minister for Hajj and Umrah and general supervisor of the symposium, said: "The Hajj Grand Symposium is one of the main events the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has sponsored since its inception in 1970. Every year the symposium discusses different topics related to the Hajj season and Islamic values, thereby promoting Islam and raising awareness.
"This scientific and cultural meeting appoints the top Islamic scholars to discuss the topics with the audience and share knowledge," he added.
Dr. Abdulaziz Wazzan, undersecretary of the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah for Umrah Affairs and supervisor of the symposium's executive committee, said: "The ministry aspires to achieve many goals through this Hajj symposium, including highlighting the cultural and civilizational role of the Kingdom, promoting scientific and cultural communication between Islamic scholars from around the world, focusing on the most important achievements and projects serving Muslims in the two holy mosques and the holy sites, and contributing to strengthening the bonds and cooperation of the Islamic nation."
From July 30 the ministry will receive the symposium's guests from the Kingdom and the other parts of the Islamic world. The ministry has also arranged special trips for the guests to explore historic areas and exhibitions in Makkah and Medina as well as attending the symposium's activities.

The oldest family name in Chicago-style pizza, Lou Malnati's has been the Chicago-style deep-dish pizza for more than 34 years. From the first restaurant established in 1971 to the 22 current locations, Lou Malnati's has focused on food quality and customer service.
a full service family restaurant committed to reinvesting all of the profits back into the community.
All profits will be given back to the community to benefit children's educational and recreational programs.
As Lawndale's only sit-down restaurant, the place was meant to be a beacon -- attracting other businesses to the downtrodden urban landscape. Maybe it has, but change comes slow. There's a new strip mall, expanded health clinic and slow-sprouting condominium buildings, but no pizza-fueled business boom.
And they say it's added to the quality of life in Lawndale, a local spot finally suitable for a business lunch or family birthday party.
But the reality is that maybe "Lawndale isn't ready for upscale pizza," LCC pastor Wayne "Coach" Gordon admitted. Most neighborhood folks just don't have much disposable income for deep dish comfort food.
In 2005, the average household income in Lawndale was just $21,200 compared with the citywide average of $40,800, according to the Metro Chicago Information Center.
What folks do have, Gordon says, is hope.
From time to time, Malnati's top bosses talk about closing up shop and offering up profits from the other 23 locations to community groups rather than continuing to eat the yearly losses.
So far, they've decided the casualties of closing -- the guys who turned their lives around working there -- are more important than the lack of profits.
"It's pretty emotional. I can't stop thinking about what would happen if we decide to stop doing this. Who's going to be on these guys' side?" regional manager Jim D'Angelo said.
"The numbers we've helped aren't huge. I can't say we've helped hundreds or thousands . . . but I feel we can't give up on them. Who else would create this opportunity for them? We don't consider it losing money. It's an investment in the community."
At the front of his mind are guys like assistant manager Jermaine Hill, a recovering crackhead who turned his life around at Hope House.
"In Chicago, I found my way to Cabrini Green. . . . I was stealing, hanging out with people who steal, selling drugs for a little while, begging. I was a great beggar," said Hill, 34. "People in Chicago were great. They always gave you money. There was just never enough drugs."
A chance meeting with a pastor led Hill to Hope House six sober years ago. He dedicated his life to God, and as part of the back-to- work program started working for free washing pizza pans. He worked his way up to busboy, server and now assistant manager.
"I wouldn't have been able to get a job anywhere else. And I wasn't even looking for one. They accepted me on my word. I didn't even have an ID," he said. "I've been able to save up quite a bit, pay off old debts. My main goal now is to get a home, keys to my own home.
"This Malnati's might be losing money, but they're saving lives. Helping grown men like me get back on track. What's that worth?"
Over the years there's been dozens of guys like Hill at Malnati's in Lawndale. A few have moved up in the Malnati ranks, others used their experience to score better jobs with other companies such as Starbucks.
"It's not a business that makes tons of money and funds youth programs and all kinds of good things like the Malnatis hoped. But it's working in another ways. It's helping men get their lives together," Gordon said.
And not just guys who are down and out.
D'Angelo said the Lawndale restaurant changed him forever.
"I thought it would be about me giving to guys who needed a chance. I was told I was going to give and support them, but they gave to me," he said. "In the process I received the greatest thing in life, my faith in Christ."
An ex-con named Sam Jones who worked as a cook at Malnati's befriended D'Angelo and invited him to a Bible study.
"It was a guy who was in prison that helped lead me to something good in my life. Something that made me a better man, better father and better husband," D'Angelo said. "That does emotionally attach me to the store. And it's one of the reasons we still do it. It's an investment in people. It's there to help people make better lives for themselves."
The restaurant's future remains uncertain, but business seems to be looking up as new condos and businesses sprout in the area. Hope survives.
"We've started to deliver to homes, which wasn't an option in the past because we thought it was a threat to our drivers," manager Linda Matthews said. "I know it's been 11 years, but I see us doing a lot better."

Football industry urged to listen to women after new research highlights impact of Coronavirus
Football industry urged to listen…
New research has highlighted the concerning and disproportionate impact of Coronavirus on women working in the the football industry.
Among other findings, the research programme, which was commissioned by Women in Football, and carried out by Sports Marketing Surveys, shows that three quarters of respondents believe that men and women have been treated differently during the pandemic.The results also indicate that 59% of respondents feel that their mental health has suffered during the pandemic.
The findings, which have also appeared in the Daily Telegraph, are drawn from women working across all sectors of football, including managers, players, match officials, directors, media, retail, accountancy, ticket-office and legal staff.
The project includes qualitative feedback which illustrates the scale of the problem. One respondent described how staff members had brought complaints of racism, discrimination and sexual harassment, only to find that certain members of the senior management team "weren't interested".
At another business where women make up 15% of employees, 40% had been made redundant, representing about a third of total job cuts.
Commenting on the results, Jane Purdon, Chief Executive of Women in Football, said: ""English football could not exist without women – it makes sense to listen… Football organisations should check in on their staff, because their mental health is suffering".
One of the key issues that emerged during the research was childcare. Remote working combined with school closures has added to the burden on women juggling work and personal lives. In fact, 88% of Women in Football members have been working from home during the pandemic, with many confronting a tacit assumption that women are expected to take on a greater share of childcare and housework, a phenomenon that is having a profound effect on their working lives. Highlighting the issue, one respondent wrote that "almost all of the mothers I work with have been struggling significantly through the pandemic, often to the detriment of their performance and mental health".
Other issues that emerged included a chauvinistic, "lad" culture, and concerns of the lack of visibility of women's sport amid the drive to bring back men's professional sport. Unlike the Premier League, the Women's Super League and Championship were ended formally on the 25th May because of the pandemic, although the new season is due to kick off on September 5th, when it will seek to build on some of the growth in 2019-20. Chelsea were crowned Champions on a points per game basis, while the end of Liverpool's long wait for a men's Premier League title coincided with the women's team's relegation from the Super League.
The research underscores the need for changes in workplace culture, particularly changes which provide much needed job security and fairness for women working in the sector.
Managing Director of Sports Marketing Surveys, John Bushell added "It has been a privilege to work with Women in Football on this important and timely piece of research. It is crucial to make sure that everybody is treated fairly, regardless of their gender. With the current upheaval and changing dynamics in the workplace, this is more true than ever. Ultimately, those businesses that can successfully build an open, transparent and empowering culture that provides job security and flexibility to women will be those who build loyal, productive workforces and so are best placed to thrive as the Coronavirus recovery continues".

Alitalia: journey to excellence
Rome, 18 May 2016 – Alitalia has delivered strong progress in the 18 months since the launch of a major industrial plan to re-engineer the airline to compete effectively on the global aviation stage.
The new Alitalia began operations on January 1, 2015 following a €1.76 billion recapitalisation that saw historic debt wiped out and a €560 million investment by Etihad Airways for a 49 per cent equity stake. The majority 51 per cent stake is held by Italian CAI.
A comprehensive three-year programme to rebuild the business and revitalise products and services in order to return it to profitability has seen, so far, the launch of new intercontinental, international and domestic routes; the introduction of new aircraft with new interiors; new airline partnerships and improved flight connections at Rome's Fiumicino airport, plus a greater focus on customer service and improved products for air travellers in order to boost quality.
Alitalia unveiled contemporary new branding in 2015, and it today launched a new staff uniform and revealed its first major advertising campaign for seven years.
Alitalia's Chairman Luca Cordero di Montezemolo was joined by James Hogan, Vice Chairman of Alitalia and President and Chief Executive Officer of Etihad Aviation Group, and Cramer Ball, the recently appointed Chief Executive Officer of Alitalia, for two days of events in Rome and Milan. They briefed 2,500 Alitalia staff, members of the media and major corporate clients and travel agents on the latest developments in the business.
Mr Montezemolo said: "Positive and meaningful change continues at pace in every area of the business. Alitalia has a strong new commercial focus and greater emphasis than ever before on delivering signature Italian hospitality.
"Everything we are achieving is a result of the dedication and commitment of the people of Alitalia and I publicly salute their incredible effort and hard work.
"We are creating a bright future by delivering the transformation that we promised. Alitalia today is a modern, leaner and energised business. We are reducing losses and will be profitable by 2017 if we remain totally focused."
Alitalia's recently released financial results for 2015 show that losses reduced by €381 million in 2015, in line with targets set in the industrial plan. Alitalia's market share to and from Italy also grew to more than 30 per cent in 2015, up four per cent in 2014.
A factor in Alitalia's new success has been the strength of its partnerships with Etihad Airways and participation in Etihad Airways Partners alongside Etihad Airways, airberlin, Air Serbia, Air Seychelles, Etihad Regional operated by Darwin Airline, Jet Airways and NIKI. The brand brings together partner airlines to offer customers more choice through improved networks and schedules and enhanced frequent flyer benefits.
More than 470,000 passengers since January 1, 2015 have been shared between Alitalia and Etihad Airways and more than 1.2 million passengers have been shared between Alitalia and Etihad Airways Partners airlines.
In addition, joint negotiation and procurement has saved Alitalia more than €13.5 million since January 1, 2015.
Alitalia codeshares with Etihad Airways, airberlin, Air Serbia, Jet Airways, Air Seychelles and Etihad Regional and provides ground handling in Rome for Etihad Airways, Air Serbia and airberlin. In addition, it manages the operations control centre for Etihad Regional.
Alitalia recently announced a strengthening of its commercial relationship with airberlin with a 25 per cent increase in weekly frequencies on non-stop flights from Italy. It will codeshare with airberlin on more than 1,400 flights per week on 91 routes, including 56 non-stop services and 750 weekly flights between Italy, Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
Alitalia Vice Chairman James Hogan said: "Few airlines have undergone such radical change as the new Alitalia and it is now reaping the benefits of a robust new strategy built around dynamic and effective partnerships. After some difficult and challenging years, Alitalia has a great story to tell. We promised to create a world-class airline.
"We are delivering on that promise and Alitalia today is as good as any airline in Europe. We are only half-way through a three-year journey to deliver profitability. The airline is already unrecognisable from its predecessor. Customers are winning through greater choice and better products and services.
"Alitalia's people are winning through a growing company that offers new career opportunities. Italy is winning as we build an airline Italians can be proud to fly and call their own. Alitalia is building a competitive and sustainably profitable future that will deliver financial stability and long-term growth."
Alitalia Chief Executive Officer Cramer Ball said: "Alitalia is regaining strength and controlling its destiny, working hard with quality partners to drive revenue. As our evolution continues, we will remain totally focused on putting our customers at the heart of everything we do and deliver value through relevant and impressive services and products.
"We are also firmly focused on our goal to become profitable because profit will enable further growth in the years ahead through reinvestment. That means fighting harder on cutting costs, increasing revenue, and increasing productivity by becoming more efficient."
Alitalia will invest a further €400 million in 2016 across its fleet and cabins and in the areas of technology and infrastructure.
New flights to world-class destinations will start. Alitalia began flying to Santiago at the start of May with new flights to Mexico City starting in June and flights to Beijing from July. Alitalia is equally committed to increase its domestic flying programme, growing in southern Italy, Sicily and Sardinia. The summer 2016 schedule will offer more than 400 weekly frequencies connecting southern and northern Italy.
To support the customer experience, more than 6,000 cabin crew and airport staff have undertaken new specialised customer service training. The emphasis on quality customer service has been further reinforced by a new Transit Team at Alitalia's Rome Fiumicino hub, a €25 million investment in ground support equipment, new faster boarding procedures, and more staff on duty at airport gates.
Mr Ball added: "We are showing our customers that the new Alitalia stands for great service, quality and that it represents the best this great country has to offer. Our product, service and punctuality have changed to best-in-class and we are passionate about providing the highest levels of service and quality. We are the new smart choice in European air travel."

Building the UK's First Femicide Census: Profiles of Women Killed by Men
January 29, 2015 by Karen Ingala Smith
As far as I know, already this year, 10 UK women have been killed by men, they range between 25 and 67-years-old, the men who allegedly killed them between 27 and 75. 10 more women to add to the 126 killed in 2012, the 144 killed in 2013 and the 150 killed in 2014. Between 2012 and 2014, I counted and shared the names of 410 women. And now the count for 2015 begins.
Three years after starting I started recording the names of UK women killed by men, it's with a mixture of pride, deep sadness when I think of women whose lives have been taken by men and feminist anger at the continued onslaught of male violence against women, that I'm looking forward to the launch of the Femicide Census: Profiles of Women Killed by Men at a conference in London on 12th February.
The conference will bringing together family members of women who have been killed by men and a range of speakers to support the continuation and future development of the census, including me; Polly Neate CEO of Women's Aid; Professor Jill Radford feminist activist and academic who co-edited Femicide: The Politics of Woman Killing; Dr Aisha Gill co-author of 'Honour' Killing and Violence; and Frank Mullane, Director of AAFDA (Advocacy After Fatal Domestic Abuse.
The Femicide Census has been developed through a partnership between Women's Aid and me, with support from Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP and Deloitte LLP. We intend it to be an important tool, enabling us to monitor fatal male violence against women and provide data to help analyse and reduce the number of women killed by men. It's a growing and evolving project currently providing detailed data on femicides in England committed since 2009. If we don't name and reveal the extent of men's fatal violence against women and the various forms it can take, we will never be capable of a thorough enough analysis to reduce or end it.
I spoke to Tracey McVeigh from the Observer about why I started Counting Dead women and why The Femicide Census is important. Claire Colley spoke to family members of three women who were killed by men. You can read the piece here.
Title: Building the UK's First Femicide Census: Profiles of Women Killed by Men
Time & date: 10:00 to 16:30, 12th February 2015
Venue: Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, 65 Fleet Street, London, EC4Y 1HS
Cost: £25 per delegate, £20 for Women's Aid members. No charge for delegates who have lost a family member or friend to femicide.

Groton – Town police said today that a 70-year-old Mystic man suffered a fatal heart attack at about 4:45 p.m. Tuesday while shoveling snow from the sidewalk in front of his house on Warren Avenue.
Joe Sastre, director of emergency management, said the man's wife was doing chest compressions when emergency personnel arrived. The man was taken by ambulance to Lawrence+Memorial Hospital, but attempts to revive him were unsuccessful, Sastre said.
"If you've got an elderly neighbor and you've got teenagers, or you've got middle aged folks nearby, send the teenagers over. Put them to work," Sastre said. "Help them out."

The importance of diversity on boards of directors' effectiveness and its impact on innovativeness in the bioeconomy
A company's board of directors plays a critical role in making decisions relating to strategy, high-level structure, and the appointment of the CEO. The role of the board and its impact on corporate performance has been well studied; however, the diversity of the board of directors and the corresponding correlation to the level of corporate innovativeness has not been previously investigated.
