Today, women make up about one-third of all scientists who go to Antarctica for research. However, it was just under fifty years ago that the first woman principal investigator was funded by the then United States Antarctic Research Program, which today is known as the United States Antarctic Program (USAP). Colin Bull, Director of the Institute for Polar Studies (today called Byrd Polar and Climate Research Center or BPCRC), had advocated for women to be allowed in Antarctica since 1959. At the time, female graduate students worked on Antarctic research, but were not able to conduct their own fieldwork; thus they relied on men to collect samples and gather the data they needed up until the ban was lifted. One such woman was Lois Jones, whose Ph.D. adviser was The Ohio State University geochemist Dr. Gunter Faure. Once she completed her dissertation on the geochemistry of the McMurdo Dry Valleys, she submitted a proposal for fieldwork in Antarctica to be funded by the USAP. Her proposal was approved and she and her field party of three other women went to Antarctica during the austral summer of 1969–1970. In addition to fieldwork in the Dry Valleys, they gained the honor of being four of the first six women to make it to the South Pole. While the women faced many challenges and chauvinism, their field season was successful. This has led to a legacy of women in Antarctica. Faculty, alumna, and staff from The Ohio State University figure prominently in this story, due to the affiliation of the Byrd Polar and Climate Research Center with Ohio State.

Russian General: Bases In Georgia For Three More Years
March 16, 2005 13:39 GMT
Russian soldiers in Georgia (file photo) 16 March 2005 -- A Russian general today said that Russia's two remaining military bases in Georgia will remain operational for a "minimum" of three years.
General Aleksandr Rushkin, the deputy chief of staff, made his remarks today in Moscow. He said withdrawals from the bases at Akhalkalki and Batumi "will not be made shorter under any circumstances."
Rushkin's remarks come Russia seeks to re-open negotiations with Georgia over the future of the two Soviet-era bases. Georgia wants the bases closed as soon as possible.
Earlier this week, Georgian Minister for Conflict Resolution Georgy Khaindrav said Russia could remove the two bases within three to six months.
Last week, parliament passed a nonbinding resolution giving Russia until 1 January to close the two bases, and called for a list of measures to be drawn up against Russia if it doesn't agree to the withdrawal by 1 May.

New website on climate and history (in German) online
My new website "Klima und Geschichte" ("climate and history") is now online at the URL www.klima-und-geschichte.de. With this website I combine my interests in archaeology with my interests in climate science.
Both disciplines see rapid advances of new research, and we understand increasingly better how human history has been influenced by climate factors and climate change - or hasn't, because human societies are not passive recipients of environmental factors ("climate/environmental determinism"), but usually have a certain range of freedoms and options to react to the environment and also shape it. The limits and possibilities for action are a combination of environment, ressources, social structure, culture and history.
While climate researchers on the one side and archaeologists and historians on the other side contribute many new insights, communication and mutual understanding across the disciplines is not always easy. Furthermore, every person - not just academic researchers - has personal connections to history: as descendant of earlier people, as member of society, as inhabitant of a region that's perceived as home. With the website "Klima und Geschichte" I also hope to make a small contribution to the information exchange between everybody who is interested in these topics.

Beths Grammar School celebrates great results as GCSE grades announced
PUBLISHED: 12:45 20 August 2015 | UPDATED: 12:45 20 August 2015
Jamie Weir
Students celebrate their results at Beths Grammar School
The school saw 99 per cent of its pupils get five or more A* to C grades
Beths Grammar School is celebrating its results after 99 per cent of its pupils got five or more A* to C grades at GCSE.
And there were some excellent individual results at the school. William Moulton took AS levels alongside his GCSEs, picking up two A grades. He did similarly well at GCSE, being awarded seven A* and four As. Fellow Beths pupil Sahil Jain also got great results, achieving three As at AS level, four A* and six As at GCSE.
Headteacher Jim Skinner said he was pleased with the performance of the top achievers as they strived for A* and A grades. He also congratulated all of the school's GCSE students for their achievements, and said he looks forward to seeing them return in September.


Spanish cava must, by law, be made from one or more of seven grape varieties. Pinot noir, subirat, and trepat are the three lesser-known options. Four other grapes are the main ones. Which of the following is not a variety used to make cava?
While Ull de Llebre (or "eye of the hare" in Catalan) is a Spanish grape grown in the Penedès, it is not a part of the seven grapes legally allowed to make cava. (It is, however, the local name for tempranillo). While chardonnay often adds finesse to cavas, the varieties macabeo, parellada, and xarel-lo are the most important. Macabeo is fruity and aromatic with good acidity. Parellada is the most delicate of these Spanish grapes and are often grown in higher, cooler vineyards. And you can thank xarel-lo for giving cava most of its personality by contributing good acidity and a generous, round body.


Pont de la Margineda is a bridge located in Santa Coloma, Andorra la Vella Parish, Andorra. It is a heritage property registered in the Cultural Heritage of Andorra. It was built in the 14-15th century. The bridge spans a river called the Gran Valira. The archstones are pumice, to keep the structure light. The walls are made of granite.

FAQ – From our farm to your home.
Bea was a Jersey milk cow. I've known plenty of cows in my day but Bea was one of the sweetest creatures I've ever met so I decided to name my business after her.
My name is Kelsey and I am a 20-something small scale sustainable farmer in Northwest Minnesota. When I started making Bea's Botanicals I lived and and worked on a certified organic vegetable CSA. I currently live with my husband and plethora of animals on our five acre organic farm. You can check out my farm blog here.
Bea's Botanical products are made with organic extra virgin olive oil infused with organic herbs and 100% pure essential oils. We grow several of our herbal ingredients on our farm and are working to grow as many as our Minnesota climate will allow. More information about where I source my ingredients can be found here.
Bulk orders (10 items or larger) can be arranged but may take up to one month to fulfill. As our products are made with herbal infused oil, it takes two weeks to create the oil blends used in the balms and salves. Please contact me with inquiries.

Q: How to have PHP session expire upon browser close OR some extended duration of time My php session is set to expire when user closes the browser but I noticed that if I leave my browser open for an extended period of time (24+ hours for example) the session still persists.
Is there a way that I can have these sessions expire either when the browser is closed or when some extended period of time has transpired?

A: The solution might be to set data via ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime', <lifetime in seconds>); Of course if it's possible to change config via PHP. Otherwise you wil need to set proper values in your php.ini:
ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime',30);
ini_set('session.gc_probability',1);
ini_set('session.gc_divisor',1);

The other approach is setting validity of session cookie by:
$expire=24*60*60;
session_set_cookie_params($expire);
session_start();

Sam Malouf honored as Ernst & Young 2017 Entrepreneur of the Year
Sam Malouf, founder and chief executive officer of Malouf, a sleep accessories supplier with headquarters in Logan, Utah, received the Ernst & Young 2017 Entrepreneur of the Year Award in the distribution and manufacturing category for the Utah region.
Sam Malouf
The EY awards are sponsored by the multinational business advisory firm Ernst & Young and recognize entrepreneurs who excel in areas such as innovation, financial performance and personal commitment to their businesses and communities. Malouf was selected by an independent panel of judges, and the award was presented at a gala event at The Grand America Hotel June 10 in Salt Lake City.
In accepting the award, Malouf acknowledged his wife, Kacie Malouf, for her role in founding and building the company. "At some point, Kacie did every job in the company: sales, accounting, marketing, orders. She continues to be my greatest source of leadership, wisdom and inspiration," he said.
The couple started the company in their two-bedroom apartment 14 years ago. Today, Malouf employs 204 people, ships products to stores across the United States and neighboring countries, and runs the Malouf Foundation, which provides comfort items to those experiencing hard times.
"This is a huge honor and a bit of a surprise, to be honest," Malouf said. "This award and our success wouldn't be possible without the people who come to work every day and bring their best attitudes and ideas. I owe the Malouf team a huge thank you for ensuring that work is always meaningful and fun."

The Capas collection focuses on the creation and use of layers of colors, tonality and shadow to generate intense depth while also being easy enough to blend into any environment, due to the presence of a wide range of chromatic shades.
Hahn's starting point for the Capas collection is his notion of shadows being never black or grey but full of color and geometry. The designer's aim was to create a simple and light rug that has a casual feel to it while being complex in the use of colors and formation of depth. In order to achieve this, nanimarquina and Hahn intensely studied the specifics of Kilim weaving techniques searching for new ways of distributing color.
After months of investigation, nanimarquina and Hahn developed a new type of loose Kilim structure which allows mixing the colors of the warp and weft. Normally, warp is not visible in a Kilim. By defining a different density of warp new tonalities surfaced, providing a visual texture where colors intertwine with each other along the carpet. The unique texture creates a dark-and-light effect and great profundity without becoming heavy. Like the layers of air in the atmosphere that reflect light and cast shadow.
"By loosening the fibres and using a thicker warp, we made new colors and textures visible, celebrating greater depth and enhanced tones." - Mathias Hahn.
Color is a pivotal element of the Capas collection. Each rug has a main color, a complementing tone and its darker gradient which in the composition gives the illusion of a cast shadow on the floor. Each rug is a color chord of a certain main color.

MOSAIC inspires courage through youth culture
Mentors from the MOSAIC program helped student's from Jack London continuation high school design and paint murals around the campus. Photo Credit: Hannah Pedraza / Photo Editor
Stephanie Bermudez

CSUN's Mentoring to Overcome Struggles and Inspire Courage (MOSAIC) is a program that uses youth culture to mentor and cater to at-risk youth in the San Fernando Valley.
"Students that we cater to are considered at-risk for many reasons. Usually most of them have already been through the juvenile justice system," said Alex Ojeda, coordinator for MOSAIC.
"Either they're on probation or dealing with alcoholism or they're affiliated with gangs. It's not your average high school or junior high students; they actually come with lots of emotional (and) psychological problems that we deal with on a regular basis, apart from academics of course," he said.
The use of youth culture is the reason why the program so effective in engaging the kids, Ojeda said.
"We use the graffiti culture, the hip hop culture, we practice poetry, spoken word and martial arts," Ojeda said. "That's something that we use to bring the kids in and grab their attention. From there we can expand more on the academic aspect of our mentoring so once we capture their attention they are open to try new things."
Graffiti art is one of the most popular forms of art in the program because many of the MOSAIC kids are deep into the graffiti culture, added Ojeda. He said many of the kids have been arrested for tagging and have been in tagging crews.
"We like to take the concept of their extreme graffiti, the stuff that gets them into trouble, and get them into a different light which is canvas art," Ojeda said. "They can't get arrested for doing graffiti on canvas."
"We've done art shows on campus that's all artwork done by the youth, so using these tools that the kids can relate to is essential to our mentoring because otherwise it would just be another mentoring program that only works with tutoring or anything in the field of scholastics," he added.
The MOSAIC program, which started in 2004, is not only a place in which CSUN students can serve as mentors in after school programs; it is also a class in which they meet to discuss ways to communicate better with the students they mentor.
CSUN students are matched with students in the program that are located at two continuation high school campuses and two after- school programs which are run by LAPD's Foothill and Mission Hills' divisions.
"These kids need mentors who have similar experiences that they can relate to so that it builds their self-efficacy and their ability to want to succeed in the future as adults," Ojeda said.
"We feel that by bringing university students onto the schools after- school programs, that they get a better opportunity of completing work and cashing out with their credits and units since they're so far behind," Ojeda said.
Ojeda said the mentors act as cheerleaders by providing encouragement and building a trustworthy relationship.
The MOSAIC program also takes the students they mentor on field trips.
"We have our college day field trips every semester which is when the mentors bring the students to the CSUN campus," Ojeda said.
The mentors expose the students to the college atmosphere. They give them a tour and take them to different departments, he said.
"Otherwise they would not even have set foot on a university because their present reality kind of keeps them encapsulated in their neighborhood so they don't see anything outside of their neighborhood. Bringing them onto campus broadens their horizons," Ojeda said.
"We are not policing these kids. Our job is not to tell on them when they have done something wrong. Our job is to try to help them, to advise them and convince them of staying out of trouble," he said.
The class is mixed with new and experienced mentors.
Aldo Arrellano, a 29-year-old psychology major, has been working with MOSAIC for two years and is one of the more skilled mentors. Arrellano said he learned of the program at a job he had in LACC.
"The idea of helping at risk youth really interested me," he said.
Casey Escobedo, a 20-year-old psychology and public relations major, has been in the MOSAIC program for three semesters.
"This is what I want to do, because for psychology I want to do more in child development and work with teenagers and that's kind of what I'm doing now. I'm working with teens in high school and I get to talk to them about their schoolwork and what they want to do in the future," Escobedo said. "I kind of feel like I'm already helping them."
According to Ojeda, the MOSAIC program is open to all majors and students. All students interested in mentoring, can find the MOSAIC program at the career center or work-study office.
"If they want to join, we allow them to volunteer at any of our sites that coincide with the hours that they are available," Ojeda said. "If it's something they want to do and if they meet the criteria then we bring them along."
"We take volunteers, interns and anyone who wants to help and make a change in the lives of these youths," Ojeda said.


Incoming Mexican president Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador faces both a migrant, and economic, issue at the U.S.-Mexico border in Tijuana. Mexico depends heavily on the United States, and it's especially apparent at the border, where local economies are closely linked.
The locals are on their way to work. Traffic at the U.S. border, cars lined up ahead of the border check. Yet this is an international highway where Tijuana residents cross into the United States to start their commute.
Isela Ricario lives in Tijuana, but works in a jewelry shop in Chula Vista, California.
She's one of the tens of thousands of Tijuana residents who live in Mexico, but work in California.
The community's economy depends heavily on its proximity to the United States. At the San Ysidro border – the world's busiest international frontier – around 120,000 commuter vehicles and over 60,000 pedestrians move back and forth between the two countries every day.
Yet as president-elect Obrador prepares to take office, he has stated that one of his goals is to encourage Mexicans to stop leaving the country to seek work in America, and contribute instead to their local economies.
Rogelio Varela is a professor of international economics, and said a wider international economic strategy would be more beneficial.
Some international commuters have ideas of their own to make Mexico more attractive to the workforce.
As President-elect Lopez Obrador begins with Mexico's economy on his agenda, Tijuana it seems will continue to look north for its stability.

Winston Churchill on Islam
Winston Churchill led Britain in the fight against Nazism, but long before that, he wrote a book entitled, The River War: An Historical Account of the Reconquest of the Soudan (1899). According to Wikipedia, the book was about Churchill's "experiences as a British Army officer, during the Mahdist War (1881–99) in the Sudan.
"The River War is a history of the British imperial involvement in the Sudan, and the Mahdi War between the British forces, led by Lord Kitchener, and the Dervish forces, led by Khalifa Abdallahi ibn Muhammad, 'The Mahdi,' heir to the self-proclaimed Mahdi Muhammad Ahmad who had embarked on a campaign to conquer Egypt, to drive out the non-Muslim infidels." (Source)
In the book, Churchill shares his first-hand and educated understanding of Islam. He wrote:
How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property — either as a child, a wife, or a concubine — must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die: but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.
Although I've known it for some time, this "issue" with Islam is nothing new by any means. Your posting of historical perspectives, I think, is extremely important. I don't remember who posted this but I also ran across two books giving more historical perspective. The first is "The Flying Inn" by C.K. Chesterton with the second being "The Tragedy of the Korosko" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

Paul Weston was arrested in the UK for reading aloud in public from Churchill's "River Wars" about Islam.
At the same time Theresa May, the UK Home Secretary, has to be shamed into arresting Muslims who incite violence against others in mosques, and she banned Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller, both of whom write in criticism of Islam but have never advocated violence, from the UK because their prescence there was "not conducive to the public good".

Der Vogelaugenahorn ist eine fehlwüchsige Form vor allem des Zucker-Ahorns (Acer saccharum). Das sehr helle Holz ist dabei gekennzeichnet durch punktförmige, vogelaugenähnliche Strukturveränderungen (englisch bird's eye), die durch Wachstumsstörungen des Kambiums entstehen. Die genauen Gründe für seine Entstehung sind noch immer unbekannt. Als Auslöser wird gelegentlich ein Pilz in Betracht gezogen.

Ähnliche Vogelaugen-Effekte sind dokumentiert von zahlreichen anderen, oft nordamerikanischen Baumarten, insbesondere Birken, aber auch Weiß-Esche, Schwarznuss, Küstenmammutbaum, Amerikanischen Buchen und zahlreichen anderen Arten.

Eigenschaften

Vogelaugenahornholz ist hart. Es ist nicht witterungsfest und vergilbt unter Lichteinwirkung. Vogelaugenahorn weist eine Darrdichte zwischen rund 0,48 bis 0,75 g/cm³ auf und eine Rohdichte zwischen rund 0,53 bis 0,79 g/cm³.

Anwendung
Durch seine Dekorativität ist das Vogelahornholz begehrt, besitzt aber heute eine kommerziell untergeordnete Bedeutung. Aufgrund seiner Seltenheit können beste Qualitäten Preise bis zum Fünfzigfachen des Preises von normalem Zucker-Ahorn-Holz erbringen.

Da das typische Bild nur bei Tangentialschnitten und Schälfurnier sichtbar wird, ist die Verwendbarkeit auch technisch eingeschränkt.

Im Automobilbau hat es vereinzelt Bedeutung als Holzdekor. Im Musikinstrumentenbau wird Vogelaugenahorn bei hochwertigen Streich- und Zupfinstrumenten wie Geigen, (E-)Gitarren und E-Bässen oder auch bei Klavieren verwendet. Die ältesten bekannten Objekte aus Vogelaugenahorn sind römische Tischplatten aus Feld-Ahorn.

North Korea Denuclearization & The Libya Model
Tuesday May 29th, 2018
By: A Omar Turbi, Expert, U.S Libya Relations
Lessons learned from the history of U.S Libya relations and current U.S North Korea plans for the possible upcoming conference on June 12th, between Kim Jong and President Donald Trump - The Trump presidency appears very weak in its approach and projects utter ignorance and lack of political acumen, direction or planning. Stating that the Libya model can be applied to North Korea is naive to say the least.
The Libya model has been touted as a good one to apply in dealing with North Korea denuclearization. National Security Advisor John Bolton, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and recently Vice President Michael Pence have brought the possibility of a conference for advancing peace talks with North Korea to the brink of collapse. They all blundered in their ignorance of the facts and history of how Libya U.S, and Western relations went down with respect to Libya's chemical weapons in 2003.
I was personally involved in persuading strongman dictator Muammar Qadddafi to eliminate Libya's stock piles of chemical weapons, and scud missiles. It was carried out in to total secrecy. Details when and how are not relevant at present. What is important "Is the Libya model remotely applicable to North Korea?"
It is important, however to set the record straight. Whether it would help the Trump administration in its dealings with another dictator - Kim Jong or just simply educate the pubic about the so called Libya model. The single most important qualification of any foreign policy official is basic knowledge and history of what transpired, in this case with Libya - Here are the facts:
Population of Libya is 5 Million Vs. that of North Korea of 25 million.
The Qaddafi regime had outdated stock piles of muster gas and not nuclear arsenal.
Libya had no delivery systems other than outdated short range scuds missiles.
Libya never even once ever test fired any of its outdated scud missiles.
The U.S's desire to start normalization of relations with Libya started in the year 2000 and was prompted and encouraged by the UK. The UK took the lead in 1999 and normalized relations with Libya.
Sanctions were imposed on Libya for over 10 years NOT for having chemical weapons, but for being accused for bombing Pan Am Flight 103 in 1988.
Chemical stock plies in Libya were eliminated in less than ten C130 flights and in less than 6 weeks.
The demise and death of Qaddaif in August 2011 was nearly a decade later, and had absolutely nothing to do with chemical weapons.
American and EU oil companies resumed operations in Libya shortly after U.S normalized relations with Libya.
Qaddafi was killed by Libyan rebels with air cover from the French NOT the U.S.
The U.S provided support to the French and UK air force NOT for killing Qaddafi but ONLY after:
(a). A UN resolution was passed to prevent Qaddafi's forces from advancing and massacring hundreds of thousands of Libyans in Benghazi in Eastern Libya. Benghazi was the source of the uprising early 2011.
(b). Qaddafi ordered a massive ground assault which had to make its way through 700 miles journey from Western Libya to Benghazi - That gave the UN Security Council, and NATO time to debate, deliberate and vote on intervention.
(c). Appeal from the world community
12.During the Arab spring early 2011, the Tunisian and Egyptian regimes fell to an uprising. The U.S tried behind the scenes to keep the Libya regime and Qaddafi in power. The U.S feared an Islamic extremist from taking over as Qaddafi was very actively supporting the U.S in its fight against Al-Qaida.
13. The U.S ceased its support for Libyan opposition nearly 12 years before the fall of the Libyan regime and the demise of Qaddafi.
Mr. A Omar Turbi, Expert, U.S Western & Libya relations offers clarification on the misuse by the Trump administration that North Korea can be treated much like Libya. Mr. Turbi is considered to be the foremost authority on U.S Libya relations. He testified before House Foreign Relations Committee on U.S Foreign Policy on Libya. He appress on CNN International, BBC, CBC, PBS - News Hour and many other networks.

Q: POSTMAN POST Request Returns Unsupported Media Type I am following the API instructions from Adam Freeman's "Pro ASP.NET Core MVC 2". I have the following API controller class:
    [Route("api/[controller]")]
    public class ReservationController : Controller
    {
        private IRepository repository;

    public ReservationController(IRepository repo) => repository = repo;

    [HttpGet]
    public IEnumerable<Reservation> Get() => repository.Reservations;

    [HttpGet("{id}")]
    public Reservation Get(int id) => repository[id];

    [HttpPost]
    public Reservation Post([FromBody] Reservation res) =>
        repository.AddReservation(new Reservation
        {
            ClientName = res.ClientName,
            Location = res.Location
        });

    [HttpPut]
    public Reservation Put([FromBody] Reservation res) => repository.UpdateReservation(res);

    [HttpPatch("{id}")]
    public StatusCodeResult Patch(int id, [FromBody]JsonPatchDocument<Reservation> patch)
    {
        Reservation res = Get(id);
        if(res != null)
        {
            patch.ApplyTo(res);
            return Ok();
        }
        return NotFound();
    }

    [HttpDelete("{id}")]
    public void Delete(int id) => repository.DeleteReservation(id);
}

The text uses PowerShell to test the API but I would like to use Postman. In Postman, the GET call works. However, I cannot get the POST method to return a value. The error reads 'Status Code: 415; Unsupported Media Type'
In Postman, the Body uses form-data, with:
key: ClientName, value: Anne
key: Location, value: Meeting Room 4

If I select the Type dropdown to "JSON", it reads "Unexpected 'S'"
In the Headers, I have:
`key: Content-Type, value: application/json`

I have also tried the following raw data in the body, rather than form data:
{clientName="Anne"; location="Meeting Room 4"}

The API controller does work and return correct values when I use PowerShell. For the POST method, the following works:
Invoke-RestMethod http://localhost:7000/api/reservation -Method POST -Body (@{clientName="Anne"; location="Meeting Room 4"} | ConvertTo-Json) -ContentType "application/json"

A: When using Postman with POST and JSON body you'll have to use the raw data entry and set it to application/json and data would be like this:
{"clientName":"Anne", "location":"Meeting Room 4"}

Note how both key and value are quoted.


NEW YORK --- The news wasn't official until the Detroit Red Wings were back in the visitors dressing room at Madison Square Garden, taking off their gear following what could have been a disheartening and potential season-ending 3-2 loss to the New York Rangers.
With help from the Ottawa Senators on Saturday, the Red Wings clinched a berth in the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the 25th consecutive season. Ottawa's 6-1 win against the Boston Bruins at TD Garden was what the Red Wings needed to lock up third place in the Atlantic Division.
NEW YORK -- New York Rangers center Eric Staal "should be fine" for the start of the Stanley Cup Playoffs after leaving the final regular-season game, coach Alain Vigneault said Saturday.
Staal was injured late in the second period of a 3-2 win against the Detroit Red Wings at Madison Square Garden.
NEW YORK -- Jimmy Howard will be the goalie who hopes to help the Detroit Red Wings clinch a berth in the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the 25th straight season.
Howard starts against the New York Rangers on Saturday after getting pulled in a 5-2 loss against the Boston Bruins on Thursday. Detroit will clinch a playoff berth with a win in regulation or overtime against the Rangers.
Season series: The Detroit Red Wings won 3-2 against the New York Rangers when Darren Helm scored with 1:57 left in overtime at Joe Louis Arena on March 12. Brad Richards tied the game for the Red Wings with 31.8 seconds left in regulation. The Rangers won 1-0 on Feb. 21 when Kevin Klein scored 1:59 into overtime at Madison Square Garden. Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist made 21 saves.
New York Rangers forwards Mats Zuccarello and Viktor Stalberg and defenseman Dan Girardi will not play against the Detroit Red Wings in the final game of the regular season on Saturday (12:30 p.m. ET; FS-D, MSG, NHL.TV).
Rangers coach Alain Vigneault also said backup goaltender Antti Raanta will start.
Zuccarello, the Rangers' leading point-scorer with 61 (26 goals, 35 assists), and Stalberg each played Thursday in a 4-1 loss to the New York Islanders, but did not practice Friday. Each is out with a lower-body injury, but Vigneault says he expects each player back for the start of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.


Before conceiving I had a lot of things to contemplate such as being fit, healthy, eating well, having tight control of my blood glucose levels and most important of all achieving at least an A1c of 7.0%. Both diabetes and pregnancy combined have their own unique challenges. I knew that I would have a lot of hard work ahead of me.
My diabetes appointments are usually quarterly at the diabetic centre. My previous appointment showed that my A1c was 7.5%, so I decided to visit my diabetic team and inform them of my plan, as I did with my first pregnancy. The diabetic nurse retested my A1c and after two weeks I found out my A1C was actually 7.3%. Blood glucose control is vital during pregnancy because if you can imagine even before you're aware of your pregnancy, your baby's brain, spinal cord, heart and other organs have already started to form. This totally freaks me out because without tight control I could have possibly affected the way in which my child developed.
I was given the opportunity to have a trial run of the dexcom G4 sensor for a month which I talked about in my post, "Cyborg for a month or perhaps longer".
Dexcom G4 – is a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor which is inserted into the body and is able to give blood glucose readings every five minutes. The sensor automatically transmits this reading to my insulin pump (Animas Vibe) and creates a graph. With my insulin pump I am able to set an ideal blood glucose range. If my blood glucose level goes above or below this range my insulin pump alarms to alert me of either an increase or decrease in blood glucose level.
My trial run actually went on for longer than a month and it was during that time that I conceived. My pregnancy journey had started and with my team we made the decision to continue with the CGM during this pregnancy. To start with the CGM really helped me achieve tighter control and a better understanding of patterns occurring at certain times in the day. After a month my A1c had dropped to 6.4%.
By week five of my pregnancy I had developed severe morning sickness. I was a complete mess. I had no appetite, I lost a lot of weight and I needed far less insulin. My insulin requirement continued to decrease during the next few weeks. The morning sickness continued and to make matters worse my CGM didn't seem to want to cooperate. The readings on my insulin pump compared to a finger prick reading was completely different. It stopped picking up low and high blood glucose levels. It just did the complete opposite.
I was able to change my sensor and transmitter a few times but unfortunately every time I got a new one the same problem occurred. No matter where I placed the sensor on my body it would react in the same way. My diabetic doctor seemed to think that it could possibly be the pregnancy hormones interfering with the sensor. I went one step further and decided to contact Dexcom with regards to this. They were unable to conform if this was a possibility or not. I was told that no research has ever been done on the effects of pregnancy hormones and the accuracy of this sensor.
My doctor asked me if I'd prefer to go without the sensor and I agreed to go without it for the duration of my pregnancy. I began my rigorous blood glucose testing and on some days I'd test up to fifteen times.
With the help of my antenatal diabetes consultant I was able to plan my target blood glucose range so that my blood glucose could be as close to normal as possible during my pregnancy. We also discussed and looked in detail at basal rates, insulin to carb ratio's and insulin sensitivity. I was able to be in contact with him on a daily basis and then I attended the diabetic antenatal clinic every week. In actual fact I was very lucky to have had a team of people accessible to me which consisted of x3 diabetic midwives, x2 OBGYN's x1 antenatal diabetes consultant and a dietician. I also still had contact with my diabetes team from before my pregnancy. I WAS VERY LUCKY!
Another important factor with diabetes and pregnancy is the health of your eyes. I had to have my eyes checked every trimester by the Eye hospital to make sure that no changes were occurring. A month after the birth of my first child, I developed changes in my eyes which then corrected themselves strangely enough. However it is routine for diabetics to have regular screenings during their pregnancy here in Manchester.
Preparing for pregnancy and the pregnancy itself was extremely difficult. I had moments when I felt stressed out, happy, anxious, nervous and mostly worried. Regardless, I felt that patience and maintaining a serene demeanour was definitely key to having a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a beautiful healthy baby.


IM planned suicide attack on film industry?
Tehsin Akhtar alias Monu, one of Indian Mujahideen's top leaders, arrested last month at the Indo-Nepal border and presently with the Delhi police has revealed that the terror outfit had considered a fidayeen attack on a large gathering of film personalities in 2011.
To ensure maximum impact, the attack was to be planned at a large gathering of the industry, but the plan was not carried out as the organization was not strong enough then to handle such a big plan. IM chief Yasin Bhatkal, Haddi and Waqas participated in the discussions, revealed Tehsin.
"While Yasin very much wanted this kind of attack, he was also aware that it was premature for the outfit to carry out a fidayeen strike since it was yet equipped to do so. Yasin felt that idea of fidayeen attack was premature as IM's membership was too meagre to create any meaningful impact," Monu revealed in an interrogation, as per sources.
Police are yet to verify the details. Tehsin was arrested along with Waqas on March 24th at the Indo-Nepal border. Yasin and Haddi too were arrested from Nepal last August and are presently at the Tihar jail.

Once I had finally found the VestaCP function to create an FTP account, I thought I was set, just to find that the FileZilla Host Name didn't want to resolve. The Host Name was the sub-domain that was given to me. This was fairly easy to sort out though as all I needed was to Google the problem and then found a suggestion to use the IP address instead of the Sub-Domain. That worked! I was finally able to upload my files.
Plan was to create this WordPress blog, which usually is effortless with cPanel and WEBUZO Softaculous. Not a big deal though as I'm quite experienced with WordPress so downloaded an up to date version of WordPress, extracted the files and was able to upload these without any problem to my hosting account. This was the first time when I discovered how very fast and efficient my hosting account was. Speed of transfer was unbelievably fast. Was totally blown away.

The Greatest Strategy
There are many secrets to winning in life, and to achieving your dreams but the problem is there's only one perfect combination that leads to the kind of winning that matters. Whether it's striving for your goals, overcoming trials, or just trying to cope with the politics of whatever place or situation you're involved with, there is one strategy that will lead to success better than any other. The problem is, it's something that isn't easy to do, and most people just don't have the internal discipline to pull it off.
That strategy is patience that is mixed with wisdom and hard work.
Despite a world that gives us things with a click here and a beep there, the truth is that reality hasn't caught up with our high tech world. The best achievements, the most lasting rewards, and the ultimate victories don't always go to the strong, or to the clever. They go to those that are willing to wait for the perfect timing - and to work hard and smart in the interim.
Hard work - you can only reap what you sow, and you have to be willing to work hard; perhaps harder than you can even fathom, to lay the groundwork for achieving long term goals.
Wisdom - because stupidity never leads to anything good. Sorry to be so blunt folks, but it's the truth. And you don't have to be Brainiac to act with wisdom. Don't act in emotion and don't react. Think before you act. Count the costs. Evaluate the situation. Act with discernment. Only move when it's wise to do so.
Patience - I think this is the hardest element because everybody wants to rule the world, and they want to rule it now. But the truth is that anybody can force things through quick and easy means and get things "right now." The problem is that they have no foundation and they have to keep playing the same game to keep it up - and eventually somebody comes along that plays the game better and knocks you off your throne. Aw, poor babies. Haven't we learned yet that true, lasting success comes from laying the foundation first and building up from it? Timing is everything and if you don't act in the right timing then you won't have a foundation that will stand when the winds of fate come blowing (and they will).
There are many other things that I believe play into living well - discernment, integrity, honesty, and courage are also important, but these are traits that lead to the benefits of mixing the above three well because they all work together. There's no way you're going to have good discernment, for example, unless you have some wisdom to build it on. And integrity means that you will sometimes stand alone while others look for the easy way out, and you are left to rely on patience to see the benefits of standing your ground while others ran. And if you're lazy none of this will do you a bit of good because you're going absolutely nowhere, my friend.
This doesn't mean you'll win every time. You will lose some battles. Others will rise and lord it over you. There will be times when you are forced to defer to things that are crap and utter nonsense. But it does guarantee that you will win the war. They may mistake you for weak, but they don't need to know everything you know. Let them think you're weak, because you're wise enough to wait for right timing to make your move and set things in the proper order. And in the meantime, you quietly work so you'll have the strength to act when the critical moment finally arrives, and you will act right on time - not too soon, not too late.


Right now, the preferred method of reporting is via Support Ticket.
Our Support Team is staffed to cover weekends, and they can get to the report and take action on it, prior to when I am back in the office.

Mapping Issues Through Movement
The Seldoms performing "Exit Disclaimer." Photo courtesy of the artist.
When Carrie Hanson and her Chicago-based dance company The Seldoms performed at the Wisconsin Union Theater in 2018, then junior Mariel Schneider was moved by the performance. The piece, in sync with Hanson's overall vision, utilized dance to communicate the history of social movements and what it means to be part of a community.
After learning that Carrie would be the fall 2019 Interdisciplinary Artist-in-Residence, Schneider was immediately interested in being part of such work.
"I was so moved by the entire production and her vision – my immediate reaction was 'This is the kind of work I want to make,'" said Schneider. "I am extremely passionate about environmental justice and the climate crisis – I knew that I wanted to be a part of the dialogue."
Carrie's course, "From Topic to Topography," is grounded in the notion that movement and dance can be used in an interdisciplinary manner to communicate STEM topics, social justice issues, and more. Students in the course, like Schneider, were tasked with creating a final piece that communicated something deeper, something they were passionate about.
The research done by students on their chosen topic will be showcased through group and individual movement pieces at the final event of Carrie Hanson's residency on November 21 at 6 p.m. at the Chazen Museum of Art.

The final event, From Topic to Topography: Mapping Issues through Movement, will be unique in both scope and nature. Students will be scattered throughout the museum in various galleries, performing repeated movement pieces that communicate everything from social issues and education justice to environmentalism. Disciplines presented include dance, theater, circus arts, and more.
"We will provide everyone with a map of the museum and where these performances are taking place," said Carrie Hanson. "You can choose your own path, so people will see these performances in different orders. When you go to a museum, you follow your impulses. That's what we want, for people to feel welcome to take in movement performances alongside the current exhibits at the museum."
Schneider, a double major in dance and international studies, worked to integrate an international framework into her work. Her research for the class was historically grounded in the language of the 1800's Berlin Conference and the resulting partition in Africa. Her piece will hone in on the resulting remapping of borders, invasion of space, erasure, and displacement of these peoples.
"The flexible nature of the course and focus on productive dialogue within our classroom community created a space that fostered creativity paired with careful examination and critical thinking," said Mariel. "This furthered Carrie's mission to promote cross-disciplinary dialogue and was extremely valuable to my personal practice. I appreciate Carrie's emphasis on democracy in making."

The course, while influenced by topics such as climate change, was strongly tied to the plight of indigenous people, and the indigenous land that UW–Madison stands on. During the course, guest artist Faheem Majeed worked with students to create charcoal rubbings of this land and its surroundings in order to "address the erasure and presence of significant spaces."
The piece created by Majeed and others during this workshop will be on display and incorporated into the final residency event.
"We have been extremely concerned with the importance of recognizing our own privilege as non-native people in this process," said Schneider.
"I am so excited to share the important work that has been done on the part of our class community as a group and the individual projects that will be presented as well," said Schneider. "I believe the audience will be challenged by the subject matter and our approach, and I hope they leave motivated to consider their perspective in understanding this land."
From Topic to Topography: Mapping Issues through Movement will take place on Thursday, November 21 from 6 – 8 p.m. at the Chazen Museum of Art (800 University Avenue). RSVP on Facebook.

Sometimes folks get so involved in the attractions with their lifestyles that they've virtually no time to consider "what ifs" ... the things that may possibly happen with their life eventually, but which thus far have not developed yet. By way of example, imagine the husband plus parent and bread winner of his family members which dutifully moves out every day and gets to his or her auto to visit the place where they work. Then, one day, there is an accidental automobile accident around the motorway, and out of the blue, life as that man and family unit lived it is decidedly altered. Now this gentleman has been wounded, and can even be in hospital, and their needs will be fully distinct. The very first thing that ought to happen whenever an individual will be injured in a incident is for these people to speak with a professional icbc claims lawyer in Victoria.
Presently there is no alternative to someone who has specialized training in this industry to help you. Indeed, it is a fact you've paid for your insurance charges for many years, so you might even have a cozy and friendly emotion towards your own insurance provider, their own adverts about social media, as well as have a relationship with your long term agent. However, every little thing alters in the event the course of the funds alters. At this point you or others should form a partnership with an ICBC claims lawyer with regard to your security and for the care regarding all your family members and treasured ones. They've the experience required for coping with the insurance companies for you personally and can dispute your circumstance much better than you are, in particular when you're hurt and trying to get well. Don't overlook this all significant step! Call for help today!

The Brightest Light
Label: SPV
By: Fredrik Schlatta Wik
It has been a long wait for fans of The Mission: breakups, a farewell tour, reformation and now all of a sudden new album. Seems like Wayne Hussey, along with old partners in crime Craig Adams, Simon Hinkler and "newbie" Mike Keller on drums, thought it fitting to join the ranks of band reforming and releasing a new record.
Since The Mission and their mystique and gothic soundscapes have been important to my musical upbringing I eagerly read the press release before pressing play. Filled with superlatives I got this feeling that this could be magic all over again.
The intro of the first 8-minute track "Black Cat Bone" was really promising – for about 2 and a half minutes before Mr. Hussey delivered the line "When you get to my age, the candles cost more than the cake" and there and then the magic disappeared for me. Yes, the intro was haunting and yes Mr. Hussey's timbre voice was still there, but the track evolved into sort of a rock anthem, still with some distorted nice licks, remnants of what was the trademark The Mission sound (for me at least). Shame I thought, well I'm sure the gothic influences will be more dominating later on. They weren't. The album is a rock album, and not very pleasing to me as such. I'm sure you can identify The Cult riffs and so on but the mystery is gone. Maybe that is intended and then I applaud the new direction. However, I suspect many old fans will like me, be confused and a bit disillusioned. I can't criticise the technique and some lyrics are really thoughtful and quite personal. Also the vocals are a bit grittier then preciously. Some melodies are pretty nice as well but they are obscured in the classic rock attire. All hope is not lost though, "Swan Song" and "The Girl in a Fur Skin Rug" are quite enjoyable and occasionally there are parts in the songs that glow and bring back memories of past times. Generally the intros are very promising.
I would actually have released the album under a new band name and I'm sure The Mission will recruit some new rock fans but I'm certain that they will lose a lot of old fans as well. Is it progression or a shot if the foot, of that I am not sure.

If you fit this description, join us! Welcome to FC BOLA.
After donating more than 10,000 balls in South America, we witnessed the power that a simple soccer ball can do to the needy youth and their social development.
We've done this in over 11 countries and we're ready to take our movement global via the US market.
After a trip to Brazil with the NGO "Revolución Pelota" where we donated balls in "Favela Complexo do Alemão" (a giant slum city), we began to analyze the difficulties that NGO's and Nonprofits have at trying to improve children's lives.
We began to think about how donating more balls in more places would make a bigger difference.
At this very moment, a lightbulb went off in our heads and a new idea was born. What if the "one for one" business model could solve this problem? And just like that, inspired by TOMS, a new purpose-driven company was born. Back in Argentina, after meeting Alejo Nitti (Co-Founder of TOMS) and several months of planning and testing, FC Bola took full form. For every product we sell, a new FC BOLA ball is donated to a child in need from disadvantaged communities.
Join our exclusive team of early bird backers and get special benefits and offers within the FC BOLA community.
Our mission is to inspire the spark of social responsibility in each one of us. This is why we choose to run our business with a for-profit model that integrates social impact.
We encourage everyone out there to think twice before choosing the next product to buy and prioritize conscious brands that invest back in people.
10.000+ balls donated in 11 countries: Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Mozambique, Rusia, Libano and expanding.
With more members joining our movement, we will enable donations in new regions of the world such as Mexico, Caribbean Countries, and the United States of America.
To make sure the BOLA's that we (and you!) donate get to the right places, we work with more than 30 NGOs that have constant presence in areas that are in need.
A soccer ball can be a very powerful tool for kids in need. Just one ball can get 22 kids off the street and on the field. Playing soccer and other sports help with youth development and encourage healthy lifestyles.
We want to make sure that the true heroes, the teachers and volunteers that dedicate their lives to these children, have the tools to create fun and healthy environments.
FC Bola has been a great platform for brands to practice and communicate their social responsibility.
These are some of the great companies that decided to purchase our products and donated thousands of balls with us.

A Social Entrepreneur, Devika Malik Is 'Wheeling Happiness' Through Her Effort To Enable People With Disabilities
Apurwa Shrivastava (Creative Writer | Branded Content)
14 Nov 2019 10:05 AM GMT
Editor : Apurwa Shrivastava
NITI Aayog, through its initiative in collaboration with the United Nations, has come forward with the fourth edition of #WTIAwards2019 to recognise the efforts of women entrepreneurs who are challenging conventions and playing a pivotal role in #TransformingIndia. If you are one of those women entrepreneurs disrupting the status quo, get yourself identified by NITI Aayog by clicking here! Last day to register the names for the #WTIAwards2019 is 17th November 2019.
At 28, Devika Malik is an accomplished young woman: an athlete, an international medallist, a counsellor, a research scholar and a social entrepreneur. Despite being paralysed on one side, she did not let her courage dim down one bit. Devika has channelled her success in disability sports to influence inclusive policies both in India and abroad through her foundation, Wheeling Happiness.
Wheeling Happiness is an effort to enable people with disabilities from economically underserved communities to reach their full potential. The foundation conducts disability awareness and inclusion workshops in numerous schools and colleges across India. It advises public and private sector companies on designing inclusive employment and client services strategies. It also conducts accessibility audits; provides counselling, driving lessons, mobility aids and sports equipment; and facilitates access to public and private sector employment for economically disadvantaged persons with disabilities.
Wheeling Happiness has, for instance, built ramps in gyms and at the Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station in New Delhi. But while making public spaces accessible was and is a challenge, enabling people with disabilities to believe in their own capabilities is equally daunting. But for Devika, helping them realise their own potential and fulfil their dreams is a challenge she embraces. Devika is on the advisory panel of many national and international NGOs working on inclusion and has conducted advocacy workshops at theCommonwealth Secretariat and Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting. She is a member of the drafting committee of the Global Disability Summit Charter for Children and Youth with Disabilities.
Impressed by her work, Hon'ble Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi recognised the consistent effort of Devika. She was also awarded the Queen's Young Leader Award by Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom in 2015. Devika plans to partner with corporations to conduct awareness campaigns for people with disabilities in rural areas, and to expand support for women and girls with disabilities to become sportspersons.
To conclude, if you are one such woman entrepreneur or you know one of such women entrepreneurs playing a significant role in #TransformingIndia through their remarkable enterprises, don't forget to get their names identified at NITI Aayog's #WTIAwards2019. Click here!

Puccinia poarum ist eine Ständerpilzart aus der Ordnung der Rostpilze (Pucciniales). Der Pilz ist ein Endoparasit von Korbblütlern sowie von zahlreichen Süßgräsern. Symptome des Befalls durch die Art sind Rostflecken und Pusteln auf den Blattoberflächen der Wirtspflanzen. Die Art kommt in Eurasien und Amerika vor.

Merkmale

Makroskopische Merkmale
Puccinia poarum ist mit bloßem Auge nur anhand der auf der Oberfläche des Wirtes hervortretenden Sporenlager zu erkennen. Sie wachsen in Nestern, die als gelbliche bis braune Flecken und Pusteln auf den Blattoberflächen erscheinen.

Mikroskopische Merkmale
Das Myzel von Puccinia poarum wächst wie bei allen Puccinia-Arten interzellulär und bildet Saugfäden, die in das Speichergewebe des Wirtes wachsen. Die Aecien der Art besitzen 20–27 × 18–24 µm große, breitellipsoide bis kugelige und hyalin-gelbliche Aeciosporen. Die hell orangegelben Uredien der Art wachsen oberseitig auf den Blättern der Wirtspflanze. Ihre hellgelben bis fast farblosen Uredosporen sind für gewöhnlich ellipsoid bis eiförmig, 23–30 × 17–24 µm groß und fein stachelwarzig. Die  blattunterseitig wachsenden Telien der Art sind lange bedeckt. Die gold- bis haselnussbraunen Teliosporen des Pilzes sind ein- bis zweizellig, in der Regel lang zylindrisch bis eiförmig und 40–58 × 17–25 µm groß. Ihr Stiel ist gelblich bis farblos und bis zu 15 µm lang.

Verbreitung
Das bekannte Verbreitungsgebiet von Puccinia poarum reicht Europa über Asien und Nordamerika bis nach Südamerika.

Ökologie
Die Wirtspflanzen von Puccinia poarum sind für den Haplonten Korbblütler (Asteraceae spp.) sowie Süßgräser (Poaceae spp.) für den Dikaryonten. Der Pilz ernährt sich von den im Speichergewebe der Pflanzen vorhandenen Nährstoffen, seine Sporenlager brechen später durch die Blattoberfläche und setzen Sporen frei. Die Art verfügt über einen Entwicklungszyklus mit Telien, Uredien, Spermogonien und Aecien und macht einen Wirtswechsel durch.
