Boomers I, or The Baby Boomers, where born between 1946-1954. They are the second largest sector of our current population, with the Millennial's recently passing them, as the largest living generation. The first Boomer segment experienced the Kennedy and Martin Luther King assassinations, the Civil Rights movements and the Vietnam War.
Boomers II, or Generation Jones, was born between the years of 1955-1965. This generation was a bit less government friendly, as they where post-Watergate and experienced various economic struggles, like the oil embargo of 1979. They also seemed to come in second, to the The Boomers Boomers when it came to the best best jobs, opportunities and housing – which by the way is also felt by Generation X.
So, with these two ingredients, you had a recipe for population boom, with the effects of plateauing about 1965. One of the main reasons for this, has to do with the birth control pill, which was approved in 1960 and became a very popular form of contraception, in 1965.
What effect did the boom have?
Over the next few decades, the population growth (specifically in the Western world) was significant. What occurred was revolutionary. There were many that changed during this time period. One of the most significant effects of the boom and changes in society, was the creation of the suburb. The suburb, had some substantial effects: one, it moved people out of the city centers, which helped to create ghettos, and two it isolated women, who at the time, where not a big part of the working population.
But with change, there are always new opportunities that can appear. One of the people that took advantage of the suburbs and what it had created was Brownie Wise. Brownie, could be considered a innovative sales person, that paved the way for other women to entering the workforce. She basically built the Tupperware brand and has an extremely interesting story.
Who was the first American Baby Boomer? Kathleen Casey-Kirschling…check out here story here.
If your parents are a Baby Boomers, you would then most likely be Generation X (Born between the 1966-1976). This generation has been referred to as the lost generation. Many come from divorced Baby Boomer parents, went to daycare or where latch-key kids. Interestingly, statistics show that this generation has the lowest voting participation rate of any generation. Perhaps a skeptical group, but statistically probably the formally educated generation – which might have to do with with the lack of skilled labour jobs, that are filled with Baby Boomers extending their careers, which is unlike Traditionalists or Silent Generation (those born before 1946).
For some, it might be scary time preparing for and being in retirement with its financial implications. Also, there is such a large number of Baby Boomer, that will have potential age related health issues, there is a worry about a potentially strain healthcare system and what this would health care coverage and costs. For many, the retirement age may have increased, which may effect retirement plans and pensions. There was a recession in 2008, where some people lost invested money and now might be realizing that they can't afford to retire, or be able to live the lifestyle that they are used to. To add to this, many Baby Boomers are having to have their children and/or parents moving back in with them for financial reason.
The Baby Boomers have lived in a very interesting and exciting period of time. They as a group are healthier than the generation before and are staying engaged by continuing to offer there expertise through employment and volunteering.
Interesting info. Thank you! Thank you also or your interest in my blog and I look forward to following yours!
I am a baby boomer, falling within the II category. I agree with your comments, but why dangerous?
Hello thanks for the comments! I was playing with the name a little. Perhaps Baby Boomer, could be a name for some type of small bomb. And for someone that has never heard the term, (I was thinking) the definition could quite well be a small bomb. The picture was meant to represent an explosive device to add to the effect – but it is really an old tube amp I have from stereo that I am (hopefully) putting back together. Thanks again for your comments!
Thanks for following my blog. I am now following yours. I really liked the premise of this piece. Very interesting. I am a Boomer II, but I didn't know there was such a classification for that age group. I was born in 1963 to parents who went through the war and depression. My father was in the War. I always thought the terminology baby boomer originated from the WWII era vets coming home and being more prosperous, and more opportunities. Baby boomers were products of that era.

There has been a mill at the site of the Plattner family since the 16th century. But it was not until 1885 when the great-grandparents of the current owner, Gerhard Plattner, bought the watermill in Schildberg near Böheimkirchen. After this purchase the operation has continually been expanded, modernized and improved.
Initially the agricultural holding consisted only of a mill, which was operated by a water wheel. By continuous optimization of farming with improved seeds and more efficient agricultural machinery, the grain yield increased. Due to these factors and a rapid rise in customers, new storehouses and silos were built.
1963: Construction of the first "large" grain silo with a capacity of 400 tons.
1970: Entry into a new line of business - the agricultural trade.
1977: Conversion of the old rearward-shaking grain mill to a fully automatic and pneumatic one.
1981: Construction of the first (of three) 5,000 ton silos.
1987: Take-over of the company by Gerhard Plattner. From that time on the plant has been steadily modernized and expanded (manure pit, grain storehouses, silos, cleaning and drying machines, etc.).
2000: The growing consumer awareness regarding organics was recognized. In order to handle such products our storehouse was rebuilt and certified.
2011: As a result with a growing number of customers and the raised administration effort in the agricultural sector, it was necessary to build a new office.

Ben would rather look at the moon through a telescope (a good, big one!) than do most anything else that small b-oys can do. He can readily point out the dry ocean beds on the earth's satellite and move his rather's five-foot long telescope to find a particular cr-ater that he is fond of. His father, Joseph B.

He is more interested in Tycho than in any other Lunar locality. He had a dog, now departed, whom he christened "Jupiter." The planet Jupiter is second in Benny's cosmic affections and does he like to pour over his father's astronomy books (and how!) and pick out Jupiter with its four moons on the planetary maps. At the time of this article he was a little impatient for Jupiter's reappearance. he had not been able to find it for several weeks, and his father had ass-ured him that it was only out of sight and shortly will be back, float-ing within range of his instrument. He almost cries for the moon sometimes. When the elder Leerman think s that his son has watched the heavens late enough and it is time to go to bed, Ben argues with feeling for one more look at Tycho. He looks at the great white landscape for ahalf hour at a time. A ew months ago while moon gazing, he remarked to his father, "Daddy, if we could take a ride on the moon in a machine, we would have a very rough ride." -----:------:----- He wants Santa Claus to bring him a telescope this Christmas that will be all his own, and his father thinks that if Ben proves to be a faithful astronomer he may get it. He was tried to make telescoped as his father does. He was found recently putting together a wooden framee for one, and attempting to grind a reflector by rubbing cracker meal on a pane of glass, having seen his father use gritter materials in grining Ben's sister, Beatrive, who is eleven, is only mldly interested in her father's hobby. Her speciality is tropical fish. She has a great variety of them. But they do not interest or amuse Ben at all. When asked about his sister's interests, he glumly answered,"she likes fishes."

The Gift of the Pandemic
ConversationMedicine
Gerald Häfner· February 11, 2022
Some countries are eliminating their Covid restrictions, others are maintaining the status, and still others are stepping up their measures. Mandatory vaccination seems to be the decisive turning point in terms of exiting the pandemic, with two scenarios for the future. Which ‹Post-Covid-World› do we want to enter? Louis Defèche spoke with Gerald Häfner from the Section for Social Sciences at the Goetheanum about the current situation in Germany.
What is your view on mandatory vaccination?
We had a federal election in Germany half a year ago. All the major parties declared during their campaign that they wouldn't impose mandatory vaccination. That's what they promised. I find it remarkable how you can break your word so quickly. This does not strengthen the confidence of the population in democracy, parliaments, and politics. Of course, it is even more absurd to plan mandatory vaccination at a time when the situation has already changed completely. The virus is constantly mutating, which was clear from the beginning. At the moment, vaccinated people are just as infectious as non-vaccinated, only the course of the disease is slightly different. The virus penetrates the immune system more and more easily, you get infected faster and faster but the course of the disease is getting less and less severe. Every week, fewer hospital beds are occupied and fewer people need to be treated. Every week there are fewer deaths, many don't even have any symptoms at all. There are very few people who are still at great risk due to certain pre-existing conditions or extreme old age. Those need to be protected. And it is important to strengthen people's immunity. You can also do that differently. Imposing a mandatory vaccination for the entire population is neither necessary nor sensible.
How do you explain that the state acts quasi-authoritarian?
Advertisement/Anzeige:
There is an atmosphere of fear. To some extent, it has been fueled. It is based on an extremely narrow and undifferentiated understanding of the disease, which only stares at the virus and sees vaccination as the only (initially also: final) solution. They went into a kind of ‹war› against the virus (Emanuel Macron) because they thought they could win. Other, more complex, differentiated views could not penetrate for a long time. Therefore, children and adults have been sent into lockdown and in many cases banned from precisely that, which helps people to build up strength against the virus. What was right in certain areas is wrong in general and in the long term. Because the virus will not disappear. We have to start learning to live with it.
At the moment, the old thinking continues because it was put on rails even though the reality is changing. Even though incidences are high, diseases are declining and the course of the disease becomes easier. This means we start to live with the virus. But institutions and politicians in some countries take a long time to react. One is trapped in the web of yesterday's thoughts. In Germany, the debate on mandatory vaccination is now underway in parliament. It seems completely out of touch with the time. But it could also be an opportunity for an individual and collective redefinition. At least the vote was released. In other words, this is not seen as a partisan debate, but as a question of conscience. Each and every Member of parliament must therefore think for him- or herself and decide how he or she sees it. Is mandatory vaccination helpful or not? Many – including the media – see this as a weakness. The chancellor has no authority. They demand a command from the government. This shows atavistic forms of thought and debate.
Another thing is the drifting apart, even the extreme polarization of our society. This worries me a lot. We have to learn to listen to each other and work together. However, if a mandatory vaccination is now established by law, I think it is unworldly to believe that all those who have so far decided against it will enthusiastically change their minds and go to the doctor. Mandatory vaccination will not close the rifts in the population, on the contrary. The rift will continue to escalate. Many people will be even more outraged.
Even as a doctor, I don't want to be forced to give a patient a vaccination that he actually fears and doesn't want. It scares me what is being thought here. Especially since it is not clear where it will end. How many vaccinations are necessary? How often? Who makes the decision? In this respect, I would be happy if we looked a little more at the development and learned from it – at the numbers, at the course of the disease, or even at other countries that have long since eliminated restrictions – and step back from this populism of ‹mandatory vaccination›.
Even if the pandemic were to continue, it is a special form of ‹ethics› to force people to undergo therapy. Do we want that politically?
A lot is possible. But is it right? I do not consider mandatory vaccination to be necessary, sensible, or legitimate. My understanding of the competencies of the state ends way before that. The state must respect the dignity and freedom of every human being as well as the inviolability of the body. Let's look back: there was the forced sterilization of disabled people. It has been attempted to prevent them from having offspring. This goes back to the Nazi era. It was called the «prevention of hereditarily ill offspring» and is related to the idea of «life unworthy of life». In the case of people who were not trusted to decide for themselves, the state decided that they would be rendered infertile. We have repealed this and said that the state must not decide such a thing. What's more, no medical intervention may be carried out without the consent of the person concerned.
The question of the transparency of the contracts between the European Union and vaccine manufacturers is also currently part of the debate. Are you paying attention to it?
This is another dark chapter of this pandemic. At this point, I would like to say that there are also bright points. The great willingness to show solidarity, the unconditional commitment to every human life, the rapid development of vaccines to protect vulnerable people, all this is absolutely impressive! However, I find the way these vaccines are marketed and procured today simply amoral. This also applies to the profits that are achieved because of it. Certain people, companies, investors, and funds became immeasurably wealthy in a very short time due to the worldwide distress. At the same time, an additional 180 million people fell into poverty. And there are countries where people have no chance at all of getting the vaccine. If it were really about protecting all people, you could offer it at a much lower price. That means the same for everybody. But that doesn't happen. The rich countries have secured the vaccine in exclusive contracts with exorbitant sums – and in obscene quantities. Germany alone bought 660 million doses of the vaccine. This would allow every German to be vaccinated eight times. If one shares the view that vaccination should be available to everyone, such hoarding of vaccines makes little sense.
At the same time, vaccine manufacturers were released from liability. The risk in the event of harm is borne by the customer – in this case, the state. This is what it says in various documents. But nothing is certain, because the contracts themselves will continue to be kept secret. The European Commission negotiates huge contracts, we as citizens pay and bear the consequences – but neither the public nor the European Parliament knows what they say. I find this worrying, especially since the Treaties were made at a time when there was not yet sufficient experience of the medium- and long-term consequences. And in terms of democratic politics, it is not at all acceptable.
If we look at this pandemic, the political measures, and everything that has happened as a symptom of civilizational development, what does that tell us? Are we moving towards a technocratic-hygienic civilization? Or are we learning what leads to a new understanding of living together?
At the moment we are witnessing increasing paternalism, authoritarianism, control mania, and a loss of courage for freedom and self-determination, which, combined with the new technological and psycho-technical possibilities, frightens me greatly.
But: Both is possible. Because: The future is open, despite all rumors, strategies, and doomsday scenarios. And it is in our hands.
We were actually already further along. We have seen how more and more people have already developed a kind of post-materialist thinking. Ecological awareness grew, also in connection with the climate issue. One could feel that if we want to continue living together on this planet, we must become more mindful, develop consideration, ultimately must not claim more for ourselves than we give back. We were faced with a great ecological, social, and consciousness question. Then, like a break or stop, came the pandemic – and with it the fear. But fear makes you narrow-minded, rigid, immobile. Since then, everyone stared spellbound at this virus. Many believe that this can only be solved with orders, with restrictions, with regulations, with ‹technical means› from above. Every thought has consequences. For example, if we impose mandatory vaccination in Germany, we must at the same time introduce a corresponding registration of all citizens, which does not exist for good reasons. Because information about our health status in general registers contradicts data protection, the right to informational self-determination. However, mandatory vaccination requires such a register. And it requires a government that acts accordingly. It gives birth to guardianship and surveillance – in the sense that the state determines and controls who needs to be vaccinated, when they need to be vaccinated, what they need to be vaccinated with.
These are all consequences. The Austrian Mandatory Vaccination Act, for example, requires at least three vaccinations – but the Minister of Health can order more. Then there is one, the government stands above all people and has power over how we have to be treated medically. Though this is always a highly individual issue. This is one possibility. The other is joint learning, especially from this time of the pandemic. As an anthroposophist, I believe that nothing that happens to me or to us is meaningless. And it is important to recognize the meaning. A pandemic is like a disease of humanity. It addresses a big question to us human beings. What can we learn from this? What can we take away? Corona is transmitted through the breath. The breath is something we share with all beings on this Earth – and that connects us to everyone. We are all together in this breathing space – just as we are otherwise together on this Earth, dependent on and completely responsible for each other. Like this, we can start to learn what we have to learn for each other, for the climate, for the ecology, for the Earth. Namely: How do I behave in such a way that it is also good for others? This can be practiced now. We can see that laws, coercion, and duties do not do justice to every situation and every human being. But I think it would be wonderful if we could gradually find our way from state paternalism to individual, self-determined, joint learning and practicing. Developing mindfulness in the breathing space, in our interactions with each other and with the Earth, that would be a beautiful fruit, a beautiful gift of this pandemic! I hope I can say that without being misunderstood immediately.

Post-truth is an adjective defined as "relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief". I mean, post-truth is the way to define beliefs that people think which aren't proofed at all but because of the fact that everyone says it, everyone believes it and it's thought as a proofed theory or fact.
I can perfectly relate that to my own topic, the overdiagnosis in children. A way to associate this to my topic is talking about the existence or not about TDAH.
Years before, nobody had this disorder, just for the reason that nobody knew from its existence, it wasn't "invented" or "discovered" yet. Since the first psychiatrist came up with that idea, everyone started to comment it and nowadays, it's a common disorder to have, in my opinion, psychologists diagnose this disorder too much and too quickly.
I can also talk about the other hand of this theme, TDAH. More or less 20 years ago, everyone was diagnosed to have this disorder, it was like a craze. Nowadays it's also like a craze, but in reverse, at the moment lots of doctors are refusing the existence of this disease, so more and more people and doctors are starting to refuse it too. Based on lots of statistics, that happens because of the lack of knowledge people has about this disorder, if more people knew what is about, the consequencies and general information about it, more people would have their own opinion about this theme and won't base their thoughts on other people's ones.
So, I actually think it has led to the extreme, when lots of people start to believe something, more and more people believe it too. That's a dangerous fact, and more if the thought they extremely believe is about health, like in this case.
In my opinion, it's not true that it doesn't exist, because some people actually have it and it's so evident its existance. However, a big quantity of people that are diagnosed to have it, don't have this disorder, because of the fact that somebody has big difficulties to concentrate, doesn't mean at all that this person has to have TDAH.
There are more examples of post-truth related to overdiagnosis in children: the relationship between obesity and asthma, and lots more. But from my point of view, the existance or not of TDAH is a clear example of post-truth.

Kosovo Muslim who gave the Islamic State the 'kill list' of U.S. troops arrested in Malaysia
By Pamela Geller - on October 16, 2015
Bosnia, Kosovo, Serbia, Balkans
Ardit Ferizi, a Kosovo citizen arrested in Malaysia, was working with other Kosovo jihadis to hack and pass the personal information of the US soldiers to the Islamic State "soldiers of the khilafah, who soon with the permission of Allah will strike at your necks in your own lands!"
Ferizi is the leader of a hacking group known as Kosova Hacker's Security.
NATO fought for these Muslims in the Kosovo war paving the way for what will be a jihad terror state in the heart of Europe. Brilliant.
Hacker allegedly gave ISIS a 'kill list' of U.S. troops," CNN, October 16, 2015
CNN's Brian Todd reports on the arrest of an ISIS hacker who reportedly stole U.S. military members' personal information.
Authorities have arrested a Malaysia-based hacker who they accuse of stealing personal information of U.S. military members and giving it to ISIS.
Ardit Ferizi, a Kosovo citizen, was detained in Malaysia on a provisional U.S. arrest warrant alleging he provided material support to ISIS and committed computer hacking and identity theft, the U.S. Justice Department said.
According to a criminal complaint, Ferizi hacked into the computer system of a company in the United States and stole personally identifiable information of more than 1,000 U.S. service members and federal employees. Then, he allegedly gave that information to several ISIS figures, including a prominent propagandist for the group, the complaint says.
U.S. Assistant Attorney General John Carlin called the case against Ferizi — which combines cybercrime and terror charges as U.S. authorities aim to step up their crackdown on ISIS — "a first of its kind."
"This arrest demonstrates our resolve to confront and disrupt ISIL's efforts to target Americans, in whatever form and wherever they occur," Carlin said in a statement. ISIL is another name for the Islamic extremist group ISIS.
Ties to prominent ISIS propagandist
The criminal complaint alleges there's probable cause to believe Ferizi hacked into a server and stole names and personally identifiable information of more than 1,300 U.S. military and other government personnel — a list that was later posted online in August by a group calling itself the "Islamic State Hacking Division."
"We are extracting confidential data," a message from the group said, according to the complaint, "and passing on your personal information to the soldiers of the khilafah, who soon with the permission of Allah will strike at your necks in your own lands!"
The military members' data, including home addresses and photos, was allegedly stolen by Ferizi and passed on to Junaid Hussein, a British hacker who was active on social media recruiting Westerners to join ISIS, authorities said.
The U.S. military announced in August that it had killed Hussein in an airstrike in Syria. He was a leading member of ISIS' so-called CyberCaliphate, which has carried out mostly nuisance hacks on military and other government websites in the United States, France and other countries.
After the list's publication in August, Pentagon officials said they were investigating.
"I take it seriously, because it is clear what they are trying to do," Gen. Raymond Odierno, the U.S. Army chief of ctaff, said at the time.
Many of the phone numbers and email addresses on the list were not in service when tested by CNN in August. But one person on the list, reached by phone, confirmed he had previously served in the U.S. military. He asked not to be named, but said he had recently been notified by the Pentagon that his name and personal information were on the list. Another, reached by email, confirmed she was a government employee who had been warned by the military about being on the list.
Relative: Family is 'shocked' by charges
According to the complaint, Ferizi is believed to be the leader of a hacking group known as Kosova Hacker's Security.
A relative of Ferizi provided CNN with a recent narrative of Ferizi's life and added that the family was "truly surprisingly shocked" to hear of the accusations tying Ferizi to ISIS.
The family is very skeptical of the charges, and the news has been very painful for the family, especially Ferizi's mother, the relative said.
The family member went on to tell CNN that Ferizi's relatives have no ties to ISIS or any criminal organization, and that they "love the USA for what they did in Kosovo, helping my family and my people."
When Ferizi was age 15, he ran into some problems with the police for allegedly hacking a "news portal," the relative said.
But the family wasn't aware "of his title 'hacker,' but we knew that he had good skills in computer science and that's why (a family member) invested in him to cultivate his talents even more," the relative said.
Why Kosovo students go to Malaysia
Ferizi moved to Malaysia to study computer science because of its schools and their expertise. It's not easy for Kosovo students to get into schools in the European Union or the United States, the family member said.
Other students from Ferizi's hometown in Kosovo also attended the same technical school as Ferizi did, the relative added.
Malaysian police said the 20-year-old alleged hacker had entered the country in August 2014 to study computer science and computer forensics at a college in Kuala Lumpur.
Ferizi was arrested while on his way home to Kosovo from Malaysia on September 15, the relative said. The family paid for his ticket to come home because, the relative claimed, Ferizi has mental health issues and he complained to his family that they were worsening so he dropped out of university to return home.
"We were waiting for his return, then suddenly this happened," the family member said.
The family spoke to Ferizi twice while he was in custody with the help of a Malaysian human rights group called Suaram. Both times Ferizi told them he was being accused of being in Syria in 2013, the relative said.
Questions about Syrian travel
The family handed over his old passport to investigators, and the passport contained a stamp for a four-day trip to Turkey in 2013 when Ferizi was 17. He went there with his mother and father to attend a trade fair in Istanbul, according to the relative.
The family was shocked that authorities would pressure Ferizi so much over a four-day trip to Turkey with his parents, the relative said.
The relative spoke with Ferizi about 12 days into his detention, and during a five-minute conversation, Ferizi said that Malaysian authorities were pressing him hard on whether he traveled to Syria. Ferizi was becoming so tired that he "may accept what they are saying just to come home to Kosovo," the relative said.
After five days, the family didn't hear from Ferizi and woke up to see his name all over the news, the relative said. He said if the court would recognize that he is mentally ill and release him to his family, they could take care of him.
Malaysian authorities had been monitoring Ferizi for a few months after receiving information from the FBI, said Sr. Assistant Commissioner Datuk Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay, head of the counterterrorism division, Special Branch of the Royal Malaysian Police.
Ferizi was arrested September 15 in Kuala Lumpur, the assistant commissioner said. He is under remand under a provisional arrest warrant while U.S. authorities apply for his extradition.

Kiromatic BioPharma, Inc.
Johnson Fistel Encourages Kiromatic Shareholders to Submit Their Information Below
Shareholder rights law firm Johnson Fistel, LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has commenced on behalf of investors of Kiromatic BioPharma, Inc. ("Kiromic" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: KRBP). The class action is on behalf of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired: (1) Kiromic common stock pursuant and/or traceable to the Offering Documents (defined below) and/or (2) Kiromic securities between June 25, 2021 and August 13, 2021, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"). Investors are hereby notified that they have until October 4, 2022 to move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff in this action.
What actions may I take at this time? If you suffered a loss and are interested in learning more about being a lead plaintiff, please contact Jim Baker (jimb@johnsonfistel.com) by email or phone at 619-814-4471. If emailing, please include a phone number.
There is no cost or obligation to you.
The Complaint alleges that the Offering Documents failed to disclose that the FDA had, prior to the filing of the Registration Statement and Prospectus, imposed a clinical hold, and in fact, contained statements indicating that it had not. Given that the Offering closed on July 2, 2021, more than thirty (30) days after the Company submitted the IND applications for its two immunotherapy product candidates, investors were assured that no clinical hold had been issued and clinical trials would commence.
A lead plaintiff will act on behalf of all other class members in directing the Kiromatic class-action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the class-action lawsuit. An investor's ability to share any potential future recovery of the Kiromatic class action lawsuit is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Uplifting Global Voices: A Reflection on Publishing an Edited Book on Academic Libraries and Wikipedia
15 October 2021 18 October 2021 by Laurie Bridges
By Laurie Bridges, Instruction and Outreach Librarian at Oregon State University; Raymond Pun, Education and Outreach Manager at Hoover Institution Library & Archives; Roberto A. Arteaga, Instruction and Reference Librarian at Pacific Lutheran University
Wikipedia and Academic Libraries: A Global Project | Edited by Laurie M. Bridges, Raymond Pun, and Roberto A. Arteaga | 2021 | Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license.
In fall of 2019 we set out to publish an open access edited volume titled Wikipedia and Academic Libraries: A Global Project. Two years later that volume was published by Maize Books, an imprint of Michigan Publishing. The online edition became available on September 15, 2021 and the print edition began shipping in October 11. In the week following online publication, Wikimedians quickly uploaded the book to Wikisource and created structured data in Wikidata. With over 1,700 views and downloads since the book's launch, it became clear that many readers around the world were excited to explore, recreate, or design projects centering Wikipedia, as a multifaceted resource, for academic engagement in their libraries. In this blog post, we share our rationale to collaborate on creating this edited book in this topic and its journey to fruition.
Throughout this two-year process…people have asked us via email, Twitter, and on Zoom, "Why a book?"
Throughout this two-year process and during COVID-19, from initial idea to publication, people have asked us via email, Twitter, and on Zoom, "Why a book?" Edited volumes have long been a popular form of scholarly publication within the social sciences and humanities (Webster, Thomson, & Carrigan, 2013; Webster, 2020). A 2018 survey of humanities scholars in the UK, US, Canada, and Europe, revealed that a third of scholars believed authoring book chapters was an essential part of scholarship (Webster, 2020). Edited volumes bring numerous authors and voices together in a community focused on a shared topic. When a reader picks up an edited volume to read a book chapter they are likely to find other book chapters within the same volume that interest them. However, despite the popularity and continued publication of edited volumes, there is trepidation within higher education about publishing chapters in edited volumes (Webster, 2020). Primary among faculty concerns is that their work will be more widely read and cited if it were published in a journal (Webster, 2020). This belief is grounded in legacy practices, publication formats, and impact metrics: journal articles routinely supply abstracts and keywords for library catalogs, while book chapters usually provide only a chapter title and author; nearly every recently published journal article has a digital object identifier (doi), while book chapters rarely have a doi; print volumes can be cost prohibitive for the end user; only journals are given an impact factor by Clarivate; the journal review process is clearly explained on the journal's homepage while edited books often lack information about their review process. In our edited volume, we attempted to address all these concerns by publishing the book under an CC BY 4.0 license, meaning that it's free online; the print volume will be inexpensive, because we paid the publishing fees up-front with Maize books; each chapter has a doi; the peer review process is detailed in the front-matter; and Google Scholar has taken away some of the stranglehold that Clarivate has on impact factor by tracking citations for books and book chapters (not just journal articles).
This book contains 20 chapters (including a bookend chapter that details the two-year process) by 52 authors or co-authors from Brazil, Canada, Hong Kong, Ireland, Kyrgyzstan, Mexico, Netherlands, Nigeria, Scotland, Spain, and the United States. Our authors are both new and longtime members of the Wikimedia community, representing a range of experiences and perspectives. In this book, chapters are clustered into four sections: Practical Applications in the Classroom, Practical Applications Outside the Classroom, Wikipedians-in-Residence; and Wikipedia Sister Projects.
It is our hope that this edited volume will continue to energize conversations about how library workers can engage with the Wikimedia Movement.
It is our hope that this edited volume will continue to energize conversations about how library workers can engage with the Wikimedia Movement. In addition, we hope this volume will inspire and spark future edited volumes and publications about Wikimedia-related topics within librarianship globally.

I have a long list of reasons why I don't care for Donald Trump as a person or a president. But that doesn't mean he should be treated fairly. Of course neither party has lived up to that standard in a long time. With each new president the tactics get dirtier and dirtier. Right now nothing is off the table. A few even condone violence.
When it was revealed that Michael Flynn had a phone call with the Russian ambassador, Democrats went wild. It was claimed he broke a 200 year old law. Now there are investigations of supposed collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. It doesn't matter that there is absolutely no evidence. Democrats felt different in 2008. As a candidate, Barack Obama made an extensive tour of Europe and the Middle East and met with many heads of state. Back then he was hailed as a hero.
Too many on the left are so full of hate that they are not thinking straight. If you are going to throw mud at a president, make sure you get some that sticks. Rather than venting their hatred, they should focus on next year's elections. They have to defend ten seats in states that Donald Trump won.

On the eve of this city's biggest undertaking, the anticipation for Canada to win lots of Olympic medals is palpable. Polls on news sites ask people to vote on whether Canada will win 20 or more medals. It's as if there wasn't enough pressure on the athletes already, so let's pile it on.
Some sports enthusiasts are behaving just like aggressive financial promoters, promising you huge returns on our Olympic investment, but forgetting to mention the risks.
Who knows how well Canada will do in the 2010 Olympics. Just like investing, you can't promise lots of gold medals without assessing the risks. Even men's hockey is not a sure thing.
I will however cheer our team on as they compete against the world's best and hope, like my investments, that I get a reasonable return. What that means in Olympic terms is some exciting and unexpected wins over the next couple of weeks.

Abstract: ROSSER and SCHOENFELD have used the fact that the first 3,500,000 zeros of the RIEMANN zeta function lie on the critical line to give estimates on and . With an improvement of the above result by BRENTet al., we are able to improve these estimates and to show that the prime is greater than for . We give further results without proof.

"As part of Arts Advocacy Day on February 28, Articulture staff spoke with their legislators about preserving the Arts Legacy Fund and maintaining arts funding from the General Fund.
Minnesota has a unique system put in place referred to as the Arts Legacy Fund, which is part of the Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment that passed in 2008. This amendment increased the state sales tax by 3/8 of 1% that, in turn, funnels into four different funds that preserve and enhance important elements of our state. The Arts and Culture Fund receives 19.75% of this added tax, of which 47% is provided to the Minnesota State Arts Board (MSAB) and Regional Arts Councils (RACs).
What would defunding the arts mean for thousands of arts organizations across the country and the many who utilize them? The arts range from visual to performance, theatrical to musical, literary to dance. In what ways do these programs impact your everyday life?
Congratulations to our Seward gems, the Playwrights' Center and Studio 206 in the Ivy building, for being two of the 14 arts organizations awarded by the McKnight Foundation this third quarter! Each organization will be funded for two years.

It's OK. Stop feeling guilty.
1. The overwhelming feeling of not doing enough for your child.
This is my own definition of mommy guilt, but I'm sure others can relate. As mothers, we often forget who we were before motherhood. While my daughter, Zion, has been the catalyst for change in my life, I had to remember who I was while letting the old version of myself die. Childless Kierra didn't love who she was, she wasn't confident and she was lost. Through life and hard lessons, I learned I have to give myself self-compassion and be kinder to myself, but sometimes the truth of my power isn't wrapped in a pretty bow.
I'm still struggling with this, but now I have added mommy guilt on top of it. Parenting while coping with depression and anxiety is one of the most difficult battles I have faced, which leads to more guilt. Many days I don't want to get out of bed, I don't want to eat and sleeping is the only activity that feels good. But somehow, I still do what I need to for Zion.
I haven't been away from my daughter for more than a couple hours and some days I feel I have failed her in more ways than one — but she's only 2 years old. She doesn't see me in the way I see myself, because when I look in the mirror, I see my shortcomings and everything that I "should" be doing. When I pick her up from school and she runs up to me yelling "mommy," I am reminded that I am doing the best I can. She runs to me and nuzzles her head into mine then curls up in my arms because she feels loved and protected.
Motherhood doesn't come with an instruction manual.
I ultimately have to make the tough decisions on my own and not let the mommy guilt influence me. I work to surround her around strong women and provide her a solid foundation academically, spiritually and emotionally. But when it comes to realizing my own power, I allow myself to get in my own way.
There are many ways you can deal with reconciling if you're just "doing enough," but more than likely if your heart is in the right place and you're doing everything in your power to make sure your child has the best life possible, you're doing just fine. The key is self-compassion, self-care, self-love, and, I will always say, therapy.
I workout, joined volunteer organizations and am working on my passion project. Hobbies outside of work and home can provide an outlet.
3. Have an activity that is only for you and your child.
Zion and I have our own activities we enjoy doing, such as, taking walks, putting her in dance/art classes and wash day. Building our bond is one of the most important tasks you can do with your child.
As mothers, we must honor ourselves in the midst of motherhood. Especially as a single mother, I must own my truth, which means honoring my past, learning from its lessons and not fearing what others may think, because the only voice that matters is my own and my daughter's. Outside opinions can lead to comparison and amplify mommy guilt.
Even though Zion's a toddler, I encourage open conversation so I can better understand her needs. This is a practice I am incorporating so I can teach her that she shouldn't be afraid to speak up, regardless of who she's speaking with. If I am not raising a happy and whole daughter, to me, that will be the ultimate form of mommy guilt. Regret and not living the best life I can stops with me so my daughter Zion can fly.
We must speak up and live out loud, while speaking kindly and finding compassion for ourselves.

Q: Power BI and Azure Functions I have write a very basic azure app function.
I have one input parameter and a result (strings)
It works with Htpptrigger. I have test it in my browser. It works fine.
What i want to do is to is to call this function from a power bi report (in a DAX function for example).
Is there a way to do that ? I have read some tutorials, but it is very complex, they work with dataset. I don't want to create a new dataset for my function. I just want to call this function when i am displaying a field value in a table for example
Thanks

A: How about something like this:
let
    url = "https://<function app name>.azurewebsites.net",
    timezoneID = "Eastern Standard Time",

    // Call GetJson Power BI function to convert record to JSON object
    jsonContent = GetJson([timezone=timezoneID]),

    // Submit JSON object to Azure Function using an HTTP POST
    StatusUpdate = Web.Contents(url,
     [
         Headers = [#"Content-Type" = "application/json"],
         Content = Text.ToBinary(jsonContent),
         RelativePath="/api/<function name>?code=<function code>"
     ]
 ),
response = Json.Document(StatusUpdate)
in

Matt Witkowski drove in two runs on the afternoon (photo credit: Stephen Bates, WCS Photography).
CHICAGO, Ill. - The Illinois Tech baseball team hosted the University of Chicago on Friday afternoon at Ed Glancy Field in the first of four straight games against the south side opponent. One big inning cost the Scarlet Hawks, as an 11-run sixth propelled the Maroons to a 16-5 seven-inning win.
Chicago jumped ahead early, scoring three times over the game's first two innings.
Illinois Tech, however, stormed back in the bottom of the second. The Scarlet Hawks singeld four times in the inning and three times with two outs. A base knock from center fielder Matt Witkowski plated two runs to pull the Hawks to one (3-2).
After Neal Shah entered the game to pitch a scoreless third, the Scarlet Hawks left runners on second and third base to end the bottom of the inning. Chicago responded with a two-run fourth inning to take a 5-2 lead, with both runs scoring on groundouts.
Shah pitched out of a bases-loaded jam in the fifth inning before the Maroons had the big sixth inning. Tech used three different pitchers in the frame, at one point walking five batters in a row. The Maroons recorded five hits in the inning, one of which was a three-run homer off the bat of first baseman Thomas Prescott.
Tech could not find any more offense until starter Brenton Villasenor (six innings, two earned runs) left the game for Chicago. The Scarlet Hawks plated three runs in the bottom of the seventh, scoring on a Ted Howell RBI single and a two-RBI single from John Zalewski.
Both Witkowski (1-for-3) and Zalewski (1-for-2) had a season-high two RBI.
Howell, the first baseman, was a perfect 3-for-3 on the day with a double, RBI, two runs scored, a stolen base, and a walk.
Shortstop Tyler Tucker stole two bases.
Tech will play UChicago again tomorrow at 1:00 p.m. in the South Side College Classic at Guaranteed Rate Field. Admission and parking is free to all. Live stats will be provided for the contest.

DAVID: See my point above. The s/s/c can only be as intelligent as the complexity of the brain it is attached to allows.
Your concept leads to this preposterous idea: a person with an IQ of 70 is at that level because his s/s/c can do no better, even though his brain is really constructed just like yours and mine! But it isn't constructed the same way.
dhw: Once again: your IQ analogy can only refute my point if you insist that the source of intelligence is the brain and not the s/s/c, which it may well be. But that is the materialism which you claim to reject.
The s/s/c must use the brain it is given and the functional level of that brain will dictate the IQ. Granted other factors in life can improve the IQ to some degree as the brain is plastic.
I'm happy to show we are all stumped. And please recognize living brain and NDE are two different circumstances, and the s/s/c may function differently in both.

Drinking age in Malaysia
All countries have different drinking ages, and these ages have been set by the governments of the various countries, in accordance with what they think is best for their countrymen. There aren't laws for people in Europe that are better applied to people in Muslim countries. There aren't laws for Muslim countries that are better applied to European people. Let's take a look at how all this works out, and help illustrate it.
Many of the Muslim countries have total proscriptions on alcohol public possession, purchase, and consumption. That's because the various Muslim countries have laws against drinking in general, according to their religious holy books. Many of the European countries, however, have no such hang-ups. Well, then why are the legal drinking ages in Europe and the United States not the same? There are often more practical reasons for having a higher drinking age, like when there are a lot of drunk driving accidents in a particular country, or when things get too out of hand with young people drinking.
There are some countries in Southeast Asia which take a very tough stance toward illegal drugs, but they don't take much of a staunch stance toward alcohol. Alcohol has always been considered a big part of all Asian cultures, and it's not unusual to see a national minimum legal drinking age of 18. It's a normal part of Asian culture to have drinking at the age of 18, and even before that, under certain circumstances and for certain occasions. If you ever go to Malaysia, be sure to try some of the local brews that you can only get in Malaysia, compared to other Southeast countries.
There is no legal drinking age in Malaysia. There is a legal purchase age of 18. In areas that have an over 50% Muslim population, alcohol sales are restricted to certain areas. It is not allowed to sell alcohol to people who are Muslim or people who are under 18 years of age, but there aren't any drinking age restrictions. In places with more than a 50% Muslim population, the sale of alcohol is restricted to certain areas. It's against the law to sell alcohol to Muslim people, and to people who are under the age of 18, but there are no drinking age restrictions. A lot of Asians think Westerners look older than they are, so you might be able to purchase alcohol without showing your ID. It is actually illegal for the Muslim population to either drink or purchase alcohol. Public alcohol consumption isn't tolerated, and people can get into legal hot water for drinking out in public. Some of the top brewers, on an international level, have operations there. Before the Europeans came over, there was no alcohol consumption or production at all, and there was a strict Islamic law adherence. Malaysia is actually the tenth hugest consumer of alcohol in the world. The beer consumption in the country is very high, and it's very similar to other more Western countries.

Making more research Open Access one paper at a time
At the Open Access Button we go beyond finding research and directly reach out to scholars who publish their work in paywalled journals to ask them to legally share their research. We recently shared a few examples of stories from users who have used the Button to request research they need. With each request we create more freely available research.
Turning paywalls into OA
Each request begins as a search from an individual researcher, student, doctor, or curious person. Let's take a recent request for example. Christof, a researcher, searched for a recently published paper titled "Exploring the role of gender in 19th century fiction through the lens of word embeddings" by pasting in the paper's url in the search box at openaccessbutton.org. The Button searched thousands of open access repositories by utilizing repository aggregators, including BASE, CORE, oaDOI, Share, and others.
Unfortunately, the paper wasn't found in a repository. The Button then prompted Christof to create a request and asked, How would getting access to this research help you?
The Open Access Button automatically extracts the corresponding author's email address from the paywalled page or we find it manually. Once a request has all the information it needs, the Request Manager, Natalia, double checks the request and sends it to the author. The requester is notified and can track progress in their inbox or on our website.
Christof's paper request was sent out the same day to the corresponding author. The author received an email that included:
A researcher is interested in reading your article, "Exploring the role of gender in 19th century fiction through the lens of word embeddings." Christof told us that "I'm working on use cases in the humanities employing word embeddings. There are not many of them so your contribution would be essential to my work." By sharing your article you'll help Christof, but it could also increase the impact of your research.
All major publishers permit the author to share a version of their article in a repository or personal website. For the majority of requests we send, the author can legally share the submitted or accepted versions of the article! If authors wish to share their research, they can either deposit it to a repository and send us a link, or give us a copy to upload. We archive articles in Zenodo. However, if their publishing agreement prevents them from sharing their article, the author can refuse the request.
Our new author deposit page. Authors are provided with easy methods to upload their research, share via url, or refuse the request. For journals included in SHERPA/RoMEO, we provide information to the author on what version of their research can be legally shared.
Great news: the author responded to Christof's request in one day with a link to an archived copy of the paper. We sent Christof the link and now the paper is discoverable and freely accessible to all!
Note: This story was updated on April 23rd to remove a request to help moderate requests.
Nature features OA.Report's work putting OA policy into practice!
After a couple of years of working to support institutions implementing their OA policies, we're so proud to see OA.Report, our development partner, and one of our collaborators featured in Nature. We appreciate Nature bringing attention to the progress being made in more effectively implementing OA policies. Read the
OA.Report helps funders measure and increase OA policy compliance and their investment's impact

Why Did No One Notice Yosemite's Horsetail "Firefall Effect" Before 1973? – Newsmakers Live!
Why Did No One Notice Yosemite's Horsetail "Firefall Effect" Before 1973?
Horsetail Fall was discovered by a hiker/rock climber named Galen Rowell in 1973. He noticed that at just the right time, in just the right month, it would light up so brilliantly that it looked like a firefall. He and his buddies were on the Manure Trail or somesuch when they discovered it, so they jokingly named it Horsetail Fall. They didn't tell anyone, though, and it remained unknown. Eventually Rowell shared a photo, and it made the rounds of Yosemite insiders. Then social media exploded, and now everyone knows about Horsetail Fall.
Obviously this waterfall was no secret. So how is it that nobody before 1973 noticed the brilliant firefall effect during late February sunsets? This is something that everyone agrees about: there's no record from either native American tribes or the white settlers who came later that they noticed the firefall effect. This is truly strange. Did something happen in the 1970s that changed the color of the sunset? Did the path of the waterfall shift slightly?
Or is climate change to blame? Horsetail is an ephemeral fall, and it appears only in winter and spring, beginning when the snowpack starts to melts. Maybe in the past that didn't happen until March 1—too late for the firefall effect—but now it typically happens in mid-February thanks to rising temperatures?
This weather station series is for the whole park so it doesn't tell us specifically about temperatures in February or temperatures in the vicinity of the melting icepack. And there are certainly individual warm years before 1973. Still, the evidence is consistent with the idea that the firefall effect might not have become a regular occurrence until the 1990s or so, and was missed before then because it was so sporadic.
It's a mystery. Climate change is my best guess for the weird Horsetail Fall tale, but feel free to chime in with your own theories.

Indian Navy's 5th Kalvari-class Diesel-electric Attack Submarine Vagir (S25) Begins Sea Trials
The fifth submarine of Project 75, Yard 11879, Indian Navy's Kalvari class commenced her sea trials on 01 Feb 22. The submarine was launched in Nov 2020 from the Kanhoji Angre Wet Basin of Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDL). after commissioning. The submarine will now undergo intense trials of all its systems at sea, including propulsion systems, weapons, and sensors. The submarine is scheduled for delivery to the Indian Navy in the year 2022 after the completion of these trials.
