Q: For which numbers $n$ is every group of order $n$ nilpotent? I would like to have a simple criterion for the numbers $n$ with the property that every group of order $n$ is nilpotent.
If $n$ is a prime power, it is clear that $n$ has this property.
If $n$ is an abelian number (every group of order $n$ is abelian) , then the property is satisfied as well.
So, let's omit those cases.

Which numbers $n$ satisfy the following conditions ?

*

*$n$ is not a prime power.

*There is at least one non-abelian group of order $n$.

*Every group of order $n$ is nilpotent.

The smallest such numbers are $135$, $297$ and $459$, all having the form $3^3p$ , $p$ prime , $p>3$.
The desired sequence does not contain even numbers because the dihedral group $D_{2n}$ is not nilpotent for $n\ge 3$ , unless $2$ is a power of $2$. (Is there an easy proof for that ?)

A: The characterization of such numbers has been known for a while, see for example "Nilpotent numbers" by Pakianathan and Shankar.
Here is the characterization. Write the prime factorization of $n$ as $n = p_1^{k_1} \cdots p_t^{k_t}$.
Then every group of order $n$ is nilpotent if and only if $p_i^s \not\equiv 1 \mod{p_j}$ for all $i \neq j$ and $1 \leq s \leq k_i$.
Here is an explanation why the condition is necessary:
If $p_i^s \equiv 1 \mod{p_j}$ for $1 \leq s \leq k_i$, then $p_j$ divides the order of $\operatorname{Aut}((\mathbb{Z}/p_i\mathbb{Z})^s) \cong \operatorname{GL}_s(\mathbb{Z}/p_i\mathbb{Z})$. Thus we can form a nontrivial semidirect product $H = (\mathbb{Z}/p_i\mathbb{Z})^s \rtimes \mathbb{Z}/p_j\mathbb{Z}$. Because $H$ is non-abelian and its Sylow subgroups are abelian, it follows that $H$ is not nilpotent. Then $$H \times (\mathbb{Z}/p_i\mathbb{Z})^{k_i - s} \times (\mathbb{Z}/p_j\mathbb{Z})^{k_j - 1} \times \mathbb{Z} / m \mathbb{Z}$$ for $m = n/{p_i^{k_i} p_j^{k_j}}$ is a non-nilpotent group of order $n$.
Related questions have been asked many times, see here, here, here and here..


Re: Kerry Davis, Allcity Carpentry Ltd.
In this day and age we have found it difficult to find a contractor in whom you can trust for an honest day's work! Therefore, we would like to submit a letter of reference attesting to our satisfaction in the work we have had done by Allcity Carpentry Ltd. After purchasing a home in the past year, we have contracted Allcity Carpentry to lay ceramic tile flooring in three bathrooms and front foyer, build a gazebo around our new hot tub and install a cedar fence including a pergola arbor bench with planter box.
All jobs were completed to our satisfaction in the exact time frame as per quote. Mr. Davis was punctual and efficient, including cleaning and removing all debris from the entire work area immediately upon completion.
We will continue to use Allcity Carpentry Ltd. for all our future needs.

Anesthesia for maxillary, salivary gland, mandibular and temporomandibular joint surgery
Gail I. Randel, Tracey Straker
The maxilla Introduction Surgery of the maxilla straddles the expertise of otorhinolaryngology and oromaxillofacial surgeons. This section of the chapter will focus on non-traumatic maxillary procedures and endoscopic maxillary sinus surgery. The maxilla is composed of two fused bones along the palatal fissure that form the upper jaw. The body of the maxilla is a component of three cavities - the roof of the mouth, the wall of the orbit and the floor and lateral wall of the nasal antrum. The maxillary sinus is housed in the body of the maxilla and is the largest of the paranasal sinuses [1]. Surgical procedure Maxillectomy surgery may encompass many variations - total maxillectomy with and without orbital exenteration, partial (subtotal) maxillectomy and limited maxillectomy. Limited maxillectomy is defined as surgery that removes one wall of the antrum. An example of a limited maxillectomy is a medial maxillectomy. Subtotal maxillectomy is defined as removal of two walls of the antrum. Total maxillectomy is defined as removal of the total maxilla [2]. Indications for maxillectomy include tumors of the palate, nasal cavity and sinus pathology, salivary gland pathology, fungal infection (mucormycosis), papilloma, angiofibroma and granulomatous disease. A maxillectomy may also be performed for skull base pathology [3]. Benefits of endoscopic maxillectomy include access to ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses, no external scarring, and no loss of bony nasal or anterior maxillary support structures [4].

1(ii) Continuing his journey, Ya'akov came to the land of the people of the east. 2As he looked, he saw a well in a field; and there were three flocks of sheep lying there next to it; because they watered the sheep from that well. The stone on the well's mouth was large, 3and only when all the flocks had gathered there would they roll the stone away from the opening of the well and water the sheep. Then they would put the stone back in its place on the well's opening.
4Ya'akov said to them, "My brothers, where are you from?" They answered, "We're from Haran." 5He asked them, "Do you know Lavan the [grand]son of Nachor?" They said, "We do." 6He asked them, "Are things going well with him?" "Yes," they answered, "and here comes his daughter Rachel with the sheep." 7He said, "Look, there's still plenty of daylight left; and it isn't time to bring the animals home; so water the sheep; then go, and put them out to pasture." 8They answered, "We can't, not until all the flocks have been gathered together, and they roll the stone away from the opening of the well. That's when we water the sheep."
9While he was still speaking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, because she took care of them. 10When Ya'akov saw Rachel the daughter of Lavan his mother's brother, and the sheep of Lavan his mother's brother, Ya'akov went up and rolled the stone away from the opening of the well and watered the flock of Lavan his mother's brother. 11Ya'akov kissed Rachel and wept aloud. 12Ya'akov told Rachel that he was her father's relative, and that he was Rivkah's son; and she ran and told her father. 13When Lavan heard the news of Ya'akov his sister's son, he ran to meet him, hugged him and kissed him, and brought him to his house. Ya'akov told Lavan all that had happened. 14Lavan said to him, "You are indeed my own flesh and blood."
After Ya'akov had stayed with him for a whole month, 15Lavan said to him, "Why should you work for me for nothing, just because you are my relative? Tell me how much I should pay you." 16Now Lavan had two daughters; the name of the older was Le'ah, and the name of the younger was Rachel. 17Le'ah's eyes were weak; but Rachel was good-looking, with beautiful features.
(iii) 18Ya'akov had fallen in love with Rachel and said, "I will work for you seven years in exchange for Rachel your younger daughter." 19Lavan answered, "Better that I give her to you than to someone else; stay with me." 20So Ya'akov worked seven years for Rachel, and it seemed only a few days to him, because he was so much in love with her.
21Ya'akov said to Lavan, "Give me my wife, since my time is finished, so that I can start living with her." 22Lavan gathered all the men of the place and gave a banquet. 23In the evening he took Le'ah his daughter and brought her to Ya'akov, and he went in and slept with her. 24Lavan also gave his slave-girl Zilpah to his daughter Le'ah as her slave-girl.
25In the morning Ya'akov saw that he was with Le'ah, and he said to Lavan, "What kind of thing is this that you've done to me? Didn't I work for you for Rachel? Why have you deceived me?" 26Lavan answered, "In our place that isn't how it's done, to give the younger daughter before the firstborn. 27Finish the marriage week of this one, and we'll give you the other one also in exchange for the work you will do for me during yet another seven years." 28Ya'akov agreed to this, so he finished her week, and Lavan gave him his daughter Rachel as his wife. 29Lavan also gave to his daughter Rachel his slave-girl Bilhah as her slave-girl. 30So not only did Ya'akov go in and sleep with Rachel, but he also loved Rachel more than Le'ah. Then he served Lavan another seven years.
31Adonai saw that Le'ah was unloved, so he made her fertile, while Rachel remained childless. 32Le'ah conceived and gave birth to a son, whom she named Re'uven [see, a son!], for she said, "It is because Adonai has seen how humiliated I have been, but now my husband will love me." 33She conceived again, gave birth to a son and said, "It is because Adonai has heard that I am unloved; therefore he has given me this son also." So she named him Shim'on [hearing]. 34Once more she conceived and had a son; and she said, "Now this time my husband will be joined to me, because I have borne him three sons." Therefore she named him Levi [joining]. 35She conceived yet again, had a son and said, "This time I will praise Adonai"; therefore she named him Y'hudah [praise]. Then she stopped having children.

Oakland → News → Mayor Libby Schaaf Selects Sabrina Landreth as Oakland City Administrator
Mayor Libby Schaaf Selects Sabrina Landreth as Oakland City Administrator
Date Posted: February 20th, 2015 @ 12:00 AM
Oakland, CA — Mayor Libby Schaaf today announced Sabrina Landreth as her choice for
Oakland City Administrator. A former Deputy City Administrator for the City of
Oakland, Ms. Landreth currently serves as the City Manager for neighboring Emeryville.
"This is the single most important decision I will make as mayor," said Libby Schaaf.
"Restoring stability to the City Administrator's Office is vital to achieving sustainability
in Oakland. Given the importance of this role, we were committed to conducting a robust
search of top-notch professionals to identify a candidate that would bring competence,
integrity and energy to City Hall – Sabrina is that person."
Ms. Landreth played an instrumental role in stabilizing the City's financial position
following the 2008 housing market crash and subsequent statewide dissolution of
Redevelopment agencies.
"I am honored to have been tapped by the Mayor of my hometown to help implement her
vision in this time of incredible excitement and opportunity for Oakland," said Ms.
Landreth.
As Deputy City Administrator Ms. Landreth closed more than $175 million in budget
deficits and led a massive overhaul of the budget and the City's organizational structure to
accommodate the new fiscal reality while minimizing disruption of City services and
preserving City jobs. She also helped grow the City's reserve fund to achieve Councilmandated
goals for the first time in years; institutionalized structured monitoring and
forecasting of City revenues and expenditures; developed the first comprehensive FiveYear
Financial Plan; and played a key role in negotiating 10% concessions and structural
pension reform for all employee labor groups, including public safety employees, despite
the fact that police and fire contracts were closed at the time.
"It was Sabrina Landreth who quietly and brilliantly steered Oakland through the
economic downturn and helped put the City back on firm financial footing," said Acting
City Administrator John Flores. "With extraordinary financial acumen and steady
leadership, she led the effort to put sound, long-term fiscal policies in place, reduce
internal debt and establish long-range planning for future budgets. All of this contributed
to the City maintaining excellent credit ratings and a positive outlook from the nation's
three leading credit rating agencies."
Upon City Council approval of her appointment and negotiated contract, Ms. Landreth
will assume her new role once a suitable replacement is found for her current position in
Emeryville, but no later than July 2015.
A fourth generation Oakland native, Ms. Landreth holds an undergraduate degree in
Mechanical Engineering from MIT, and a Master of Public Policy from UC Berkeley.

Every January we get a fresh start to the year, which for most people means making resolutions that will be long gone by spring. Resolutions like losing weight, helping others, or spending more time with family. Don't get me wrong, these are all great resolutions for a happier, healthier you, but I've been there, done that, and bought the T-shirt.
I believe the reason why resolutions just don't work is simply the general nature of them. Sure, we all want to be in better shape or be better people, but these willy-nilly resolutions aren't strong enough for us to continue fighting, yet every year we make these blanket resolutions and fail. There must be a better way.
A few years ago, I gave up on making resolutions. They don't work, and when I fail I feel worse than I did before the resolutions started. Now, instead of making resolutions, I make goals. There is a commonly used acronym for setting goals S.M.A.R. T.
S – Specific: Be specific about your goal.
M – Measurable: Make it measurable to check your accomplishment.
A – Attainable: Establish actions to take to make you goal a reality.
R – Realistic: When you reach your goal what kind of reward will you feel/receive?
T – Time sensitive: Set a timeframe to complete your goal.
Whether your goals are career, financial, education, family, health, or attitude oriented S.M.A.R. T will help you to accomplish your goals. Here are the same resolutions I mentioned above compared to their SMART goals.
Resolution: I want to lose weight this year.
Goal: I will lose 10 pounds by my vacation in April so I feel great at the beach.
Resolution: I want to help others this year.
Goal: I will teach at least one person a week something to help them complete their job more effectively.
Resolution: I want to spend more time with family this year.
Goal: I will make time three days a week to cook dinner so we can all eat together, and host family game night every month.
As you can see these example goals are stronger than the resolutions. The goals feel more significant because they are positive and action oriented. By establishing more specific goals you'll know when you have achieved them or (on the flip side) how much longer you have until you accomplish them. Don't be afraid of writing your goals down and sharing them with others. By doing this you give the goals more power and establish a support team.
In taking my own advice, here is one of my goals for 2014.

The Aereo Supreme Court Test–A repeat of the Betamax case
simonmackay 13/12/2013 Current and Future Trends, Network Media Devices No Comments
Aereo to Broadcasters: 'We'll See You in (Supreme) Court' | Mashable
In the late 1970s, Sony had brought to the US market the Betamax video-cassette recorder which was the first device that could, for an affordable price, record TV shows. But Walt Disney and Universal City Studios filed suit against Sony citing copyright violation because they feared that consumers would create their own TV content libraries from shows recorded off-air rather than going to the movies.
This case was taken all the way to the Supreme Court who litigated that a technology company wasn't liable for creating a technology that infringed on copyrights. It underscored the domestic video recorder not just a device for recording TV shows but a tool to "take the content further" such as hiring out videocassettes of the latest movies through the video stores which ended up as the device's killer application.
Aereo is a cloud-driven TV-streaming / "network DVR" service which has been disrupting the established business models that the US TV networks along with the major sports leagues, especially the NFL, rely on. The TV networks and sports leagues have taken legal action against Aereo but have lost this action to Aereo through every rung of the US legal-appeal ladder. But now it is to face the final test at the US Supreme Court and I see this as being like the Betamax case in some ways especially in relation to innovation.
Australian readers have faced a similar litigation concerning a TV-streaming service offered here due to the main football leagues having an exclusive online partnership with Telstra and both parties fearing that the partnership's value is diluted due to a TV-streaming service offering the football sportscasts online.
For example, the ability to stream a local broadcast form a known area to wherever you are, a practice undertaken with Internet radio, is being tested. Similarly, the concept of cloud-based DVR services where you can pick shows to record and view wherever you like is also to be tested. It will also be tested in the context of bringing material in to an area that is not meant to be shown in that area, such as a sports broadcast subjected to a "delay to the gate" rule where the sportscast is not shown live in the city it is played in unless a significant percentage of tickets are sold for that game.
Similarly, the concept of pay-TV companies offering IP-based services whether as a subscription option or add-on to a traditional subscription will be tested. This includes a cloud-based DVR service like what Cablevision is currently offering as a value-added service or simply offering the TV Everywhere service to view TV on your smartphone or tablet as what most cable-TV services are offering the US market.
Let's hope that this case can shape on-line TV services for the good of the consumer rather than studios and sports leagues setting up environments to exploit the viewing public.

What are the merits of telephone counselling?
Telephone counselling is becoming more popular as an alternative to face to face work. In terms of practicality, it has the benefits of being cost effective due to having no travelling expenses attached. It's also generally cheaper than face to face counselling. It's also less time consuming so it's suitable for very busy people who just don't have time to spare. It's ideal for people who live in geographically isolated areas, those who don't have access to transport or have difficulty with mobility. There is also no stress from having to find a baby sitter or parking spaces.
If a prospective client is feeling low and unmotivated then telephone counselling takes much less effort than having to get ready to see a face to face counsellor. From the familiarity of their own homes clients can feel safe and secure and phone the counsellor at a pre- arranged time. They can even have their tea or coffee ready at hand. The skilled counsellor will listen attentively to, not only the content of what the client is expressing, but also to the pitch and tone of their voice. The paragraph below conveys well how tone can betray how a client is really feeling in contrast to what they are saying.
"For words come from the mind, grow by study and art, but tone leaps from the inner self, revealing the state of the heart. Words may be mild and fair but the tone may pierce like a dart. Words may be soft as the summer air but the tone may break my heart"
Of course, the counsellor who is seeing a client for a face to face session also has visual clues about their clients. This is the main difference of course but needn't be seen (no pun intended) as an obstacle when choosing telephone counselling. There are other factors which can be cited in telephone counselling's favour. For instance, the close connection which can be created through the shared exchange of voices, each person listening and responding in that intimate space. Conversely, the physical separation between client and counsellor can help the client express their emotions more freely. Issues which might make the client inhibited or self conscious might be less daunting to bring up, given the anonymity that phone counselling affords.
For some clients the very nature of telephone counselling means that they might 'risk' disclosing to the counsellor sooner than they might in a face to face encounter. This can 'speed' up the counselling process allowing the client to feel a sense of progress more quickly. Just two or three sessions of telephone counselling can greatly benefit the client. In the end of course it comes down to personal choice as to whether a prospective client chooses telephone or face to face counselling. This has been a very brief look at the merits of telephone counselling but there's no doubt that it is a very valuable alternative form of counselling.

Big Dig at Dunkirk
More than 140 million cubic feet (4 million cubic meters) of sand have been dredged in the extension of the Port of Dunkirk's Flanders Terminal. Scheduled for completion at the end of this year, the massive project in northern France will yield a quay of 5,905 ft. (1,800 m.) with a 54-ft. (16.5-m.) draft, capable of docking two megamax container ships at once. The project is to accommodate increased activity at the port, which jumped from 200,000 TEU in 2010 to 375,000 TEU in 2017.

Are Robots Creating Jobs?
Those who fear that robots are coming to take their jobs may have cause to breathe easier. The Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) reports that the number of people employed in Germany has reached a post-reunification high, even as robot density increased to 309 units per 10,000 employees, the third-highest robot density worldwide. Job losses attributed to robots are more than offset by new jobs robots help create, according to the report. "In Germany," contends the International Federation of Robotics, "the rise in the use of machines has allowed employment to grow by 1 percent."

Filed under: Appeals, Qualified Immunity, Religious Freedom, Religious Practices. Location: Nebraska.
Ralph Thomas is a Nebraska state prisoner. He filed suit under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 claiming that prison officials had violated his right to religious freedom by denying him daily access to the prisons sweat lodge for prayer. He claimed this denial also violated his right to equal protection because members of other faiths were allowed daily access to the prison chapel for prayer. The district court granted the defendants motion for summary judgment. The court of appeals for the eighth circuit reversed and remanded holding there were material issues of fact in dispute precluding summary judgment. The court also held that prison officials would not be entitled to qualified immunity for their actions unless they could show a rational relationship between legitimate penological interests and denial of sweat lodge access.
The appeals court rejected the defendants bald allegation that "security concerns" motivated their decision to prohibit Thomas from praying in the sweat lodge on a daily basis. This was an insufficient basis for the court to conclude that there was any rational relationship between the denial of access and security. The court analyzed the claims under the reasonableness test set forth by the supreme court in Turner v. Safely, US 78, 107 S.Ct. 2254 (1987). The court held there was insufficient evidence in the record to support summary judgment in the defendants favor because they did not address how daily access to the sweat lodge would affect prison resources nor whether alternative policies would have accommodated Thomas. The court remanded the case for a trial on the merits to resolve the factual matters in dispute.
The defendants asserted that even if they did violate Thomas rights they were entitled to qualified immunity because they did not do so with the malicious intention to deprive him of his constitutional rights. The appeals court rejected that argument noting that since at least 1972 prisoners have a well established right to practice their religion in a manner comparable to that afforded members of majority faiths (i.e. Christians). The court held it could not say that the defendants had acted reasonably in denying Thomas daily access to the sweat lodge for prayer. "If a rational relationship can be shown between legitimate penological interests and the denial of even brief access to the sweat lodge, such a denial may not have been unreasonable. In the absence of such a justification, the appellees would not be entitled to qualified immunity from § 1983 liability."
The defendants also claimed that Thomas appeal in this case was barred by his failure to list all the defendant appellees in the caption of the appeal notice. The court gave a brief but insightful discussion of this issue noting that Federal Rule of Appellate procedure 3 (c) and numerous court cases only require that all appellants (the party appealing) be listed in the caption of the appeal notice, not the appellees (the winner in the lower court) The court held it properly had jurisdiction to hear the appeal. See: Thomas v. Gunter, 32 F.3d 1258 (8th Cir. 1994).
Thomas v. Gunter
Thomas v. Gunter, 32 F.3d 1258 (8th Cir. 08/11/1994)
[4] filed: August 11, 1994.
[5] RALPH THOMAS, APPELLANT,
FRANK O. GUNTER; KAREN SHORTRIDGE, SUPERINTENDENT; ROBERT HOUSTON, ASSOCIATE SUPERINTENDENT, APPELLEES.
[6] Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Nebraska. District No. 8:CV89-00728. Honorable Lyle Stromx, District Judge.
[7] COUNSEL
[8] Counsel who presented argument on behalf of the appellant was Robert Vail Broom of Omaha, NE.
[9] Counsel who presented argument on behalf of the appellee was Terri M. Weeks, AAG, of Lincoln, NE.
[10] Before Morris Sheppard Arnold, Circuit Judge, John R. Gibson, Senior Judge, and Melloy,*fn* District Judge.
[11] Author: Arnold
[12] MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judge.
[13] Ralph Thomas brought this § 1983 action against officials of the Omaha Correctional Center ("the OCC") and the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services for alleged violations of his First and Fourteenth Amendment rights to the free exercise of religion and equal protection of the laws during his term of incarceration. In his complaint, Mr. Thomas alleges that officials at the OCC limited his right to exercise his religion freely in violation of the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment, when they refused to allow him daily access to the prison sweat lodge for prayer.*fn1 He also asserts that the refusal was a violation of his right to equal protection as guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment, since daily access to the prison chapel was scheduled for members of other faiths. Upon the recommendation and report of a magistrate Judge, the District Court granted the defendants motion for summary judgment, and this appeal followed.
[15] "In any § 1983 action the initial inquiry must focus on whether the two essential elements to a § 1983 action are present: (1) whether the conduct complained of was committed by a person acting under color of state law; and (2) whether this conduct deprived a person of rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution or laws of the United States." Parratt v. Taylor, 451 U.S. 527, 535, 68 L. Ed. 2d 420, 101 S. Ct. 1908 (1981) (overruled in part not relevant here, by Daniels v. Williams, 474 U.S. 327, 330-331, 88 L. Ed. 2d 662, 106 S. Ct. 662 (1986)). Prison authorities are clearly "persons acting under color of state law" within the meaning of the first element. Parratt, 451 U.S. at 536.
[16] While the question of whether a state actor is involved tends to be an easy one in a prison context, the question of whether there was an impermissible deprivation is more complex. "Prison walls do not form a barrier separating prison inmates from the protections of the Constitution." Turner v. Safley, 482 U.S. 78, 84, 96 L. Ed. 2d 64, 107 S. Ct. 2254 (1987). We recognize, however, that judgments regarding prison security "are peculiarly within the province and professional expertise of corrections officials, and . . . courts should ordinarily defer to their expert judgment in such matters." Pell v. Procunier, 417 U.S. 817, 827, 41 L. Ed. 2d 495, 94 S. Ct. 2800 (1974).
[17] Whether a deprivation of a prison inmate's Constitutionally protected right is permissible depends upon whether the restriction imposed by prison authorities bears a rational relationship to the furtherance of a legitimate penological interest. Turner, 482 U.S. at 89; see also O'Lone v. Estate of Shabazz, 482 U.S. 342, 350-351, 96 L. Ed. 2d 282, 107 S. Ct. 2400 (1987). In Turner, the Court considered whether Missouri prison regulations restricting inmate correspondence and marriages were constitutionally permissible. Id. at 91-93. The Court upheld the restrictions on correspondence, noting the rational relationship between the restrictions and prison security. The restrictions upon inmates' rights to marry, however, were stricken as constitutionally infirm. Id. at 96. The Court outlined four considerations which guided its decision. First, the prison regulation must be rationally related to a legitimate governmental interest. Particular judicial deference is, moreover, owed to regulations where alternative means of exercising the right in question are available to inmates. The Court also examined the effect that accommodation of the asserted right would have on guards and other inmates, and on the allocation of prison resources. Finally, the availability to authorities of alternative measures to further the legitimate governmental interest must go into the balance. Id. at 90-91.
[19] We believe that the principles of Turner govern the restrictions placed upon Mr. Thomas's attempts to exercise his religion. If OCC policies prevented his exercise of his religion without those policies bearing a rational relationship to a legitimate governmental purpose, then Mr. Thomas's complaint states a valid § 1983 claim. Mr. Thomas complains that he was not permitted to have daily access to the sweat lodge for prayer, and that Muslims and Christians had daily access to an equivalent location for daily prayer. Since the defendants do not deny these assertions, the question under Turner becomes whether the limitations on access to the sweat lodge are logically related to a legitimate penological objective. The appellees's simple and unelaborated assertion that decisions concerning access to the sweat lodge were made on the basis of "security-related limitations" gives us little basis upon which to determine if there was some rational relationship between the denial of access and security.
[20] The second consideration under Turner is whether Mr. Thomas had alternative means of exercising the same right. Mr. Thomas asserts that the sweat lodge was the only appropriate location for his daily prayer activities. We assume for summary judgment purposes that this assertion is true. Since there was only one sweat lodge at the OCC, no alternative means of accessing a sweat lodge for daily prayer was available to him.
[21] Turner also requires consideration of the effect on prison resources and other inmates of accommodating the inmate's request. The appellees maintain that the amount of time that would have been required each day to accommodate Mr. Thomas's request would have exceeded what they could have permitted administratively. This contention however, appears to assume that Mr. Thomas wished to conduct full sweat lodge ceremonies on a daily basis, whereas the record amply supports the fact that he was complaining about the lack of opportunity for daily prayer.
[22] Mr. Thomas asserts that the effect of allowing daily access for prayer would be de minimis, since the sweat lodge is located in a restricted and secured area which already has guards on duty, and since access is already provided on a limited basis with no meaningful impact on prison resources. The appellees do not address the issue of how daily access for prayer would affect prison resources.
[23] The final consideration under Turner is the availability of alternative means of achieving the penological interests advanced by prison authorities. While it is true that there is no burden upon prison authorities to show that no reasonable alternatives to their policies exist, Shabazz, 482 U.S. at 350, prison officials are not free to restrict inmates' exercise of their religion arbitrarily and unreasonably. "The existence of obvious, easy alternatives may be evidence that the regulation is not reasonable . . . ." Turner, 482 U.S. at 90. In the present case, it is difficult to determine whether any alternative policies or procedures might have accommodated Mr. Thomas, since we are unable to discern what penological interests the appellees hoped to advance by restricting his access to the sweat lodge. Until those are delineated, we cannot say whether it is reasonable to believe that these interests would be comprised by allowing daily access to the sweat lodge for brief prayer. Unless such a logical relationship is shown, summary judgment for the prison officials is improper.
[24] In sum, we believe that after applying all of the considerations that Turner mandated, summary judgment for the appellees was improper in this case.
[26] The appellees maintain that they are entitled to qualified immunity because they did not act with malicious intention to deprive Mr. Thomas of his constitutional rights. For this proposition, the appellees cite Cleavinger v. Saxner, 474 U.S. 193, 88 L. Ed. 2d 507, 106 S. Ct. 496 (1985). This reliance is misplaced, however. Saxner was a case in which prison officials sought absolute immunity from liability for various constitutional rights violations. Id. at 198. The Court held that only qualified immunity applied to prison officials. The court reasoned that "'it would not be unfair to hold liable the official who knows or should know he is acting outside the law, and . . . insisting on an awareness of clearly established constitutional limits will not unduly interfere with the exercise of official judgment.'" Id. at 207 (quoting Butz v. Economou, 438 U.S. 478, 506-507, 57 L. Ed. 2d 895, 98 S. Ct. 2894 (1978)).
[27] It is true that officials engaged in executive functions, such as the operation of penal institutions, enjoy qualified immunity. This immunity, however, is available only if their "conduct does not violate clearly established statutory or constitutional rights of which a reasonable person would have known." Harlow v. Fitzgerald, 457 U.S. 800, 818, 73 L. Ed. 2d 396, 102 S. Ct. 2727 (1982); accord Smith v. Marcantonio, 910 F.2d 500, 501 (8th Cir. 1990). The proper inquiry in the present case, therefore, is whether the free exercise of religion within a penal setting is a clearly established right.
[28] It has been "clearly established," since Cruz v. Beto, 405 U.S. 319, 31 L. Ed. 2d 263, 92 S. Ct. 1079 (1972) (per curiam), that prison officials may not deny an inmate "a reasonable opportunity of pursuing his faith comparable to the opportunity afforded fellow prisoners who adhere to conventional religious precepts." Id. at 322. In Cruz, the Court reinstated a § 1983 suit by a Buddhist inmate who claimed he was denied equal access to the prison chapel and equal opportunity to earn points of good merit for his religious convictions. The Court held that such a complaint articulated violations of the First and Fourteenth Amendments, and therefore stated a cause of action under § 1983. Id. ; see also Cooper v. Pate, 378 U.S. 546, 12 L. Ed. 2d 1030, 84 S. Ct. 1733 (1964). The Court reasoned that while a special chapel or place of worship need not be provided for every faith, reasonable opportunities must be afforded to all prisoners. Cruz, 405 U.S. at 322, n.2.
[29] We cannot say, without reasons advanced by the appellees, that they acted reasonably in denying Mr. Thomas daily access to the sweat lodge for prayer. If a rational relationship can be shown between legitimate penological interests and the denial of even brief access to the sweat lodge, such a denial may not have been unreasonable. In the absence of such a justification, the appellees would not be entitled to qualified immunity from § 1983 liability.
[30] IV.
[31] The appellees also maintain that they, as state prison officials sued in their official capacities, are entitled to Eleventh Amendment immunity. It is true that a state is generally not subject to suit by citizens in federal court absent the state's consent. Alabama v. Pugh, 438 U.S. 781, 782, 57 L. Ed. 2d 1114, 98 S. Ct. 3057 (1978). This immunity extends to actions against state officials sued in their official capacities. Edelman v. Jordan, 415 U.S. 651, 663, 39 L. Ed. 2d 662, 94 S. Ct. 1347 (1974). The defendant prison officials in the case before us are sued in both their official as well as their individual capacities. Since the Eleventh Amendment bars the action against them in their official capacity, that part of the action must be dismissed. The Eleventh Amendment does not otherwise affect suits against public officials in their individual capacities, however. Scheuer v. Rhodes, 416 U.S. 232, 238, 40 L. Ed. 2d 90, 94 S. Ct. 1683 (1974). Accordingly, Mr. Thomas's complaint against the defendants in their individual capacities states a cause of action upon which relief may be granted.
[32] V.
[33] Some of the appellees also assert that this appeal is barred by the failure of the notice of appeal to comply with Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 3(c), which states that:
[34] A notice of appeal must specify the party or parties taking the appeal by naming each appellant in either the caption or body of the notice of appeal.
[35] The claim is that since Mr. Thomas filed his notice of appeal against "Frank Gunter, et al.," this court lacks jurisdiction over any appellees other than Mr. Gunter. In support of this proposition the appellees cite Torres v. Oakland Scavenger Co., 487 U.S. 312, 101 L. Ed. 2d 285, 108 S. Ct. 2405 (1988), Moran v. Farrier, 924 F.2d 134 (8th Cir. 1991), Madewell v. Roberts, 909 F.2d 1203 (8th Cir. 1990), United States v. Spurgeon, 861 F.2d 181 (8th Cir. 1988), United States v. Schneider, 926 F.2d 777 (8th Cir. 1991), and Goos v. Interstate Commerce Commission, 911 F.2d 1283 (8th Cir. 1990).
[36] This impressive array of precedent might be daunting but for the fact that a closer reading of the rule and each of these cases reveals that Rule 3(c) requires the listing of all appellants taking the appeal, and not appellees called to respond. All of the cases cited by the appellees are cases which involve the failure to name each appellant taking the appeal. None of the cases referred to concerns the failure to list all appellees. Such a mistaken reading of the rule has been made at least a few times before. See, e.g., Lackey v. Atlantic Richfield Company, 983 F.2d 620 (5th Cir. 1993); Chathas v. Smith, 848 F.2d 93 (7th Cir. 1988).
[37] "The purpose of the specificity requirement of Rule 3(c) is to provide notice both to the opposition and to the court of the identity of the appellant or appellants." Torres, 487 U.S. at 318 (emphasis added). Adherence to the rule is intended to prevent vitiation of time limits for filing a notice of appeal contained in Rule 4. Id. at 315. The appellees do not, and cannot, contend that they were provided with insufficient notice of the identity of the appellant in this case. Nor do they contend that they were not provided with notice of this appeal. Accordingly, we hold that the notice of appeal was not out of compliance with F.R.A.P. 3(c), and that we have jurisdiction of appellees Shortridge and Houston as well as Gunter.
[39] For the foregoing reasons, we reverse the decision of the District Court and remand this cause for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
[40] MELLOY, Chief District Judge, Dissenting.
[41] As to parts, I, IV, and V of the court's opinion, I concur.
[42] As to parts II and III of the court's opinion, I respectfully Dissent. I would affirm the district court's judgment.
[43] In my view, the court's opinion allows the appellant to raise an argument he never presented to the prison officials at the Omaha Correctional Center (the "OCC"), the magistrate Judge, or the district court. Specifically, I find no support in the record for the appellant's contention that he wanted to merely conduct half-hour, daily prayers in the sweat lodge. Instead, the record, shows that the appellant consistently and repeatedly requested that he be allowed to pray in the sweat lodge for four hours a day, five days a week.
[44] In his initial grievance filed with the OCC, the appellant requested that Native Americans be given access to the sweat lodge "during the hours of 12:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m." J.A. at 14. In response, the OCC stated that the "site and times selected have security related limitations." Id. On May 24, 1989, appellant reiterated his "request that the hours of 12:30 through 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, be added to the times in which Native Americans are allowed at the Sweat Lodge, and that no further infringements be taken. . . ." Id. at 16. In denying his grievance for a second time, the OCC stated that "sweatlodge use is not scheduled for short intervals following the noon meal, because sweatlodge ceremonies take longer than one half hour to prepare and complete."*fn1 Id. Thus, from the OCC's point of view, the appellant was clearly requesting access to the sweat lodge, after the noon meal, for four hours a day, five days a week. Based on this reasonable construction of the appellant's grievance, the OCC officials properly denied the appellant's request.
[45] Dissatisfied with the OCC's response, the appellant filed a complaint in federal court on August 6, 1990, alleging that he "was denied daily access to the Sweat Lodge between the requested hours of 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday for the purpose of making prayers, making tobacco ties and placing tobacco ties as instructed by Native American Medicine. . . ." Id. at 36. Appellant filed a second amended complaint on June 17, 1992, and although he dropped the "12:30 to 4:30" language, his second amended complaint made no reference to half-hour, daily prayers. Instead, his second amended complaint alleged that various officials at the OCC "infringed Plaintiff's right to the free exercise of religion, guaranteed by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, by limiting the Plaintiff's access to the Center's sweat lodge to morning hours on weekends and holidays."*fn2 Id. at 48. Like his second amended complaint, the appellant's third amended complaint generally alleged (without any mention of a half-hour, daily prayer) that various officials at the OCC were infringing upon his First Amendment rights.
[46] The prison grievances, requesting daily access to the sweat lodge, were attached to the defendant's motion for summary judgment. Plaintiff's resistance to the motion gave no indication that the plaintiff was requesting anything less than the full four hours required for a daily Sweat Lodge Ceremony. Plaintiff's affidavit, filed in support of the resistance, included the following statement: "(5) An integral part of the Sweat Lodge Ceremony is the offering of prayer to our Creator, and daily prayer is a necessary and essential tenet of my religious beliefs."
[47] But perhaps the most telling sign that the appellant never raised the half-hour, daily prayer issue at the district court level lies in the magistrate Judge's report and recommendation, which recommended granting the appellee's motion for summary judgment, and the appellant's response to that report and recommendation. At pages 27 and 28 of his report and recommendation, the magistrate Judge states that:
[48] Native Americans had more scheduled hours of worship than any other religious group at OCC. Plaintiff, however, alleges his constitutional rights were violated because he did not have daily access to the sweat lodge.
[49] Defendants state the times scheduled for sweat lodge use "have security related limitations [and the limitation on sweat lodge use] is consistent with the type of considerations [given] to other religious groups" within OCC (Exhibit H). Defendants, however, do not articulate these security-related limitations.
[50] The record further shows Christians had access to the Chapel from 12:30 to 1:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday and on Sunday morning for one hour. Muslims had access Saturday through Thursday from 1:00 to 1:30 p.m. and on Fridays from 1:30 to 3:00 p.m. Defendants state sweat lodge use is not scheduled for half hour intervals following the noon meal because unlike Christian and Muslim services, "sweat lodge ceremonies take longer than one half hour to prepare and complete." (Exhibit I). There is apparently a one half hour time limitation on services after the noon meal because inmates "are expected to be at work or at other scheduled programming" on weekdays (Exhibit I). Thus in addition to possible security concerns, the time limitations on sweat lodge access seem to be primarily related to the legitimate penological interests of institutional order and discipline. Sweat lodge ceremonies are simply too lengthy to be accommodated within the weekday work and programming schedules set up by OCC officials. A court should not mandate how experienced prison officials structure and schedule daily life at the prison. Allowing Native Americans to be in the sweat lodge for periods of time greater than the half hour allowed each day for chapel use by other inmates could create animosity among the inmates resulting in safety risks. It would also disrupt the scheduled programming within the institution.
[51] J.A. at 133-34.
[52] In his objections to the magistrate Judge's report and recommendation, the appellant generally asserted that the magistrate Judge's ruling on the sweat lodge issue was "based on erroneous findings" and that the magistrate Judge did "not give [Thomas] the benefit of all factual inferences." Id. at 138. Noticeably absent from the appellant's statement of objections was any mention of a half-hour, daily prayer. Since the magistrate Judge clearly referenced the need to limit afternoon daily prayer sessions to a half-hour, the appellant could have easily stated in his objections that he was merely seeking a half-hour prayer session.
[53] Since the appellant did not raise the half-hour, daily prayer issue at either the prison grievance level or the district court level (after being afforded ample opportunities to do so), I am compelled to Dissent and would affirm the district court's grant of summary judgment on the constitutional issue. See Dorothy J. v. Little Rock Sch. Dist., 7 F.3d 729, 734 (8th Cir. 1993); see also Williams v. Willits, 853 F.2d 586, 588 (8th Cir. 1988) (district court was not required to "pretend that certain facts exist in order to foresee a theory of recovery not actually raised or reasonably inferred by the pleader."); Hanson v. Town of Flower Mound, 679 F.2d 497, 504 (5th Cir. 1982) (while complaints are to be liberally construed, "an attempt to amend one's pleadings in an appellate brief comes too late.") I would also affirm the district court's grant of summary judgment on the qualified immunity issue. Like the court, I agree that the right of free exercise of religion within a penal setting is a clearly recognized right. Unlike the court, however, I am unwilling to find that the OCC officials acted unreasonably in denying the appellant access to the sweat lodge on a daily basis. I have been unable to find any cases which hold that inmates must be given daily access to a special facility such as the sweat lodge. Furthermore, given the fact that the OCC constructed a sweat lodge -- when at least one circuit court has held that a prison is under no constitutional obligation to even build one*fn3 -- and given the fact the Native Americans already enjoy more scheduled services (anywhere from 6 hours to 8.5 hours to 18 hours depending on participation levels) than the Christians (3 hours a week -- 9:00 to 10:00 a.m. on Sunday and 12:30 to 1:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday), the Muslims (5 hours a week -- 1:00 to 1:30 p.m. everyday of the week and additionally from 1:30 to 3:00 p.m. on Friday afternoon), and the various other denominations, I cannot conclude that the OCC officials were unreasonably ignoring the religious rights of Native Americans. See Allen v. Toombs, 827 F.2d 563, 566 (9th Cir. 1987) (inmates only entitled to a single, weekly sweat lodge ceremony). The OCC officials have taken necessary steps to ensure that the Native Americans are free to pursue their religion. Accordingly, I would affirm the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of the OCC officials on the qualified immunity issue.
Judges Footnotes
[54] *fn* The HONORABLE MICHAEL J. MELLOY, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Northern District of Iowa, sitting by designation.
[55] *fn1 We disagree with the Dissenting Judge's position that appellant did not sufficiently alert the district court that he was requesting an opportunity for prayer that was short of a full-blown Sweat Lodge Ceremony. Appellant asked for "the use of a Sweat Lodge for prayer" (Third Amended Complaint, p. 3), and complained of appellees' "limiting the Plaintiff's access to the Center's sweat lodge to morning hours on weekends and holidays" (id.). In his affidavit in support of his Third Amended Complaint, appellant noted that "daily prayer is a necessary and essential tenet of my religious beliefs." We think, fairly construed, that the complaint and affidavit make an issue of the opportunity for daily prayer in the sweat lodge.
Dissent Footnotes
[56] *fn1 There is apparently a half-hour time limitation on services after the noon meal because inmates "are expected to be at work or at other scheduled programming" on weekdays. J.A. at 87.
[57] *fn2 The sweat lodge was available for three-hour, sweat ceremonies on Saturday mornings, Sunday mornings, and holidays. It was available for longer periods of time on these days if participation levels were high enough. During the summer, the sweat lodge was also available on Wednesday evenings for a two and a half-hour sweat ceremony. Native Americans were also given access to a medicine man at least four times a year (more if the inmates themselves arranged any visits). And like all other religious denominations, Native Americans had access to the non-denominational, prison chapel on a daily basis. In comparison, the Christians were limited to three hours a week of "scheduled" services and the Muslims enjoyed five hours a week of "scheduled" services.

Q: GTK3 combobox without entry moving to after GTK3 combobox with entry. Why? So, I've been developing this application for work, that essentially allows the user to select their department, building, and floor.  This brings up a floor plan of the selected location, where they can select different printers on that floor plan.  It also brings up another combobox where they can select by name, the printer.  I've created the comboboxes in order of how I want them to display: Department, Building, Floor, Printer.  They don't display that way though.  This is how they display instead: ComboBox Order.  I'm guessing this is because  the Floor combobox is a Gtk.ComboBoxText object, instead of just Gtk.ComboBox like the rest of them.  Is there a way to fix this or work around it?
    # Department Combo
    self.department_combo = Gtk.ComboBox.new_with_model_and_entry(self.logic.get_department_store())
    self.department_combo.set_entry_text_column(0)
    self.combo_rowbox.pack_start(self.department_combo, False, False, 0)
    self.department_combo.show()
    # Building Combo
    self.building_combo = Gtk.ComboBox.new_with_entry()
    self.building_combo.set_entry_text_column(0)
    self.combo_rowbox.pack_start(self.building_combo, False, False, 0)
    self.building_combo.hide()
    # Floor Combo
    self.floor_combo = Gtk.ComboBoxText()
    self.floor_combo.set_entry_text_column(0)
    self.combo_rowbox.pack_start(self.floor_combo, False, False, 0)
    self.floor_combo.hide()
    # Printer Combo
    self.printer_combo = Gtk.ComboBox.new_with_entry()
    self.printer_combo.set_entry_text_column(0)
    self.combo_rowbox.pack_start(self.printer_combo, True, True, 0)
    self.printer_combo.hide()

A: Assuming self.combo_rowbox is Gtk.Box I would suggest changing the pack_start used for self.printer_combo to pack_end. This means that the widget is added on the right side of the Box instead of the left side.
Alternatively you could also try using a Gtk.Grid as the container for your ComboBox's it is less flexible but helps to get a more predictable result.

Five Things to Know Before You Hire a Mover

You don't have to own a world-class art collection or a million-dollar wine cellar to stress out about moving.
Jeff Harrington's New Jersey- based company has moved Wall Street billionaires and once hired armed guards to protect a client's goods as they crossed Russia. He maintains that just about every family has something that needs special handling, whether it's an heirloom antique or a football helmet autographed by an NFL player.
"You don't want to smudge that autograph," said Harrington, whose trucks stock anti-smudge wrapping paper as standard equipment, along with liquid-filled pillows that expand to envelope delicate porcelain and other precious objects.
Alas, movers like Harrington are the exception, not the rule. As Americans get on the move again after five years of recession and bottomed-out real estate prices, they face the bewildering task of finding a mover they trust with their possessions.

"Most customers worry about their decision until the very end of their move," said Sharone ben-Harosh, Founder of Unpakt.com, a comparison-pricing site for people looking for a moving company.
We asked Harrington, Ben-Harosh and other experts how to have a successful and worry-free move. Their advice:
Know what you are moving: One way to simplify the process is to make a complete list of what you want moved. Compiling an inventory will help you focus on what you really want to keep and what things you can sell or give away to lighten your load. And you'll be better able to check that everything has arrived at your destination.
A complete moving list will also make it easier to assess estimates.
"By asking each company to provide a quote for one uniform inventory, you're more likely to receive quotes you can compare easily," Ben-Harosh said. Insist on a firm price based on your list.
Itemizing includes taking stock of the value of your belongings. If you suspect a piece of furniture, jewelry or a collection is worth serious money, get it appraised, said Julie Sherlock, fine arts practice leader at ACE Private Risk Services.
She also recommended recording rare or precious items with photographs and assembling a condition report that details any damage or wear.
"Having that documentation is critical," Sherlock said.
Check your insurance: "Moving companies do not provide actual insurance," Ben-Harosh pointed out. Instead, they offer two levels of protection called "valuation": full-value protection, which is comprehensive but costly, and "released value protection," which covers between 30 and 60 cents per pound for lost or damaged items.
"So if you have a Rembrandt, and it gets lost, you'll get 60 cents per pound," Harrington said.
Fortunately, many basic property policies cover your moving, but it pays to check with your insurer that the items you're most concerned about are covered, especially if you have separate protection for jewelry or other valuables. You may have forgotten to specify, or "schedule," recently inherited or purchased pieces.
Also consider arranging coverage for items with sentimental value; the amount is usually your call.
That doesn't mean your mover doesn't need insurance—for damages to your home on either end and for the benefit of your insurer, who may be able to recoup some of its payment if a loss is the mover's fault.
"Make sure to ask about the process for recovery should the worst happen and something get damaged," Ben-Harosh said.
Hire the right mover: Even professionals agree that the biggest challenge in relocating is finding a mover. There are numerous companies available, and performing due diligence, from verifying their licenses to reading online reviews, can consume as much time as the move itself.
Be sure you know what each mover is offering in the quoted price, and don't refrain from asking for extra help.
"Many customers do not often understand how much a moving company can do for them," Ben-Harosh said.
Some movers provide cleaning and concierge services, or will break down computers and other technology and reinstall it in your new home. Others provide storage for furniture you don't need in your new spot or will even help you donate it to charity.
(Read More: How to Maximize Your Tax Refund)
The most popular added service is for packing and unpacking.
"While packing and unpacking services may cost between an additional 50 or 100 percent of the basic move price, almost all our customers say it's well worth it," Ben-Harosh said. Some companies offer photos of everything they've packed.
Once you've done your homework on a narrow list of prospects, trust your gut. "I want my clients, when my truck shows up, to see that it's clean," Harrington said. "They want to see guys in uniform who obviously know what they are doing."
Special movers for special things: "If you have items of real value, use someone who specializes in these kinds of items," said Gary Raphael, senior vice president of risk consulting at ACE. "A specialist will have temperature and humidity controls, and the right kind of tires and shocks to give the items their best chance of getting there unscathed."
When moving high-priced or easily damaged items, insist that one company be responsible for the item for the entire move.
"Ninety-five percent of moving companies don't do their own crating," Harrington said. That means if something is damaged, you can't be sure who's to blame. "It's important to keep the liability with one company," he added.
Move your way: Sometimes the wisest course is not to entrust your cherished things to a moving crew at all. "If the items are limited, we recommend packing them yourself and even transporting them yourself," Ben-Harosh said.
The best test of a moving company may be its willingness to accommodate your anxiety. Harrington recalled being being summoned to a job because an elderly client insisted that a priceless painting be handled his way.
"He pulls out this old box I wouldn't have put anything into. His wife pulled me aside and said, 'Please do what he wants.' So we moved it that way. He would have had a heart attack if I switched it."

Asphyx – Crush the Cenotaph (Reissue)
Crush the Cenotaph (Reissue)
by James Brizuela at 06 January 2020, 7:50 PM
ASPHYX, legendary doom and death metal band from the Netherlands, have had a storied career. Originally forming in 1988, having released a trio of demos. "Carnage Remains", "Enter the Domain", and "Crush the Cenotaph". In 1992, ASPHYX would release their "Crush the Cenotaph" EP consisting of 2 tracks from the original 1988 demo, "Crush the Cenotaph", and "Rites of Shades". "The Krusher", a track that would end up on their second full-length album, "Last one on Earth". And finally, live recordings of "Evocation" and "Wasteland of Terror", from their debut album, "The Rack". They have now rained down upon us a re-release of the "Crush the Cenotaph" EP.
Anyone who happens to love doom and death metal know the deep love they have for ASPHYX. Their powerful, raw, and unrelenting death filled music always kicking you in the face. It is great to be able to hear a re-released version of such a legendary band's humble origins. Let us begin with the opening track, "Crush the Cenotaph". The raucous thrash-like opening kicks into a drum cadence that smashes in with fierceness. The tempo slows down quite a bit and thus begins the hammering of the vile vocals from Martin van Drunen. The tempo changes vary from the slower doom-like trance, to a full powered thrash attack. It is impressive to see how ASPHYX challenged their musical prowess, even back in the early 90's. "Rite of Shades" brings in the slower doom-like tempo right from the beginning.
The guitars and drums working together to create this powerfully sludge like melody. The track kicks back into the thrash-like death metal toward the end. I love the balance between the slower tempo and the high powered that ASPHYX showcases. It doesn't give you much time to think, just adds that deeper element of groove to their music. "The Krusher" has a lot of more varying speeds of melody being used. I am a bigger fan of this track, on account of the heavier side of the thrash and death metal sound. There is a good balance of slower sludge-like melody and the faster more brutal death metal sound. The live version of "Evocation" offers an insight to how ASPHYX sounds in comparison to their recording. There is some impressive guitar work being done in the track. It has an almost psychedelic rock feel to it before returning to the brutality of their normal sound. I have to say this is an incredibly sounding recording of a live track from the early 90's. You can clearly hear every instrument, which sometimes isn't usually the case, especially with older recordings.
"Wasteland of Terror" caps off the EP in perfect fashion. The live recording begins with the raspy and vile vocals of Martin van Drunen getting the crowd riled before the onslaught of the track begins. I can only imagine what that pit must have been like during this recording. The powerful sound blaring into the crowd and destroying everyone around. ASPHYX is a monster of a band, and you would do well to listen to this re-release. You can hear how they began their journey, and I'm sure it would cause you to listen to the rest of their catalog. It is great to be able to listen to a more cleaned up version of their older hits. Blare this one in your speakers.

The most commonly used stain for detecting DNA/RNA is ethidium bromide. Ethidium bromide is a DNA interchelator, inserting itself into the spaces between the base pairs of the double helix. Ethidium bromide possesses UV absorbance maxima at 300 and 360 nm. Additionally, it can absorb energy from nucleotides excited by absorbance of 260 nm radiation. Ethidium re-emits this energy as yellow/orange light centered at 590 nm. The fluorescence of ethidium bromide in aqueous solution is significantly lower than that of the interchelated dye.
Ethidium bromide is a sensitive, easy stain for DNA. It yields low background and a detection limit of 1-5 ng /band. The major drawback to ethidium bromide is that it is a potent mutagen. Solutions must be handled with extreme caution, and decontaminated prior to disposal. Nonetheless, the sensitivity, simplicity ( the dye may be run in the gel with the DNA if desired, eliminating a separate staining/destaining process) and nondestructive nature of ethidium bromide staining have made it the standard stain for double stranded DNA.
Bands in gels stained with Ethidium Bromide fluoresce under ultraviolet light.
It is important to note that ethidium staining is strongly enhanced by the double stranded structure of native DNA. Staining of denatured, ssDNA or RNA is relatively insensitive, requiring some 10 fold more nucleic acid for equivalent detection. Another limitation is that the fluorescence of ethidium is quenched by polyacrylamide, reducing sensitivity by 10-20 fold in PAGE gels.
CAUTION: ETHIDIUM BROMIDE IS A POTENT MUTAGEN. HANDLE ONLY WITH GLOVES AND PROPER PRECAUTIONS.
Pour gel and allow to set as usual.
Prepare enough buffer (TBE or TAE) to fill the apparatus.
Upon completion of run, place gel in plastic wrap on a UV light box. Bands will appear bright orange on a faint orange background.
This method will detect approximately 5ng of DNA. Destaining in water or 1 mM MgSO4 may be required to achieve full sensitivity.
As an alternative, ethidium may be included in the gel, but not the buffer. Ethidium is positively charged, and will migrate in the opposite direction from the DNA. In general, sufficient ethidium will remain bound to the DNA even at the cathode end of the gel. Such gels will have an area of high background where the ethidium has not yet migrated out of the gel. They are, however, sufficient for many purposes, and do not generate as much ethidium waste (Your safety office will know what level of ethidium causes a buffer to be declared a hazard).
Prepare enough 0.5µg/ml EtBr in water or buffer to completely submerge the gel. This solution is stable for 1-2 months at room temperature in the dark.
After the run submerge the gel in the staining solution for 15-30 minutes (depending upon gel thickness).
Place the gel on plastic wrap on a UV light box and observe under 300nm illumination. Bands will appear bright orange on a pale orange background.
This protocol minimizes the amount of ethidium bromide waste created with each gel run.
Sensitivity is the same as Method I, and may require destaining in water or 1mM MgSO4 to achieve the best sensitivity.
In this method, bands become visible from the top and bottom of the gel as the dye diffuses into the matrix. High contrast results can often be achieved without destaining by soaking the gel until the top and bottom of the bands appear, and then leaving the gel to stand out of the staining solution for 15-30 minutes. During this time the stain will continue to diffuse into the gel, binding to the DNA at the expense of free dye. The result is a lower background without destaining.
Always use plastic wrap under ethidium stained gels to avoid solarization damage to the surface of the transilluminator.


Things are heating up between Star Jones Reynolds and Barbara Walters, according to People Magazine. People reports that Walters said she felt "betrayed" by Reynolds's comments to the magazine. Previously, Reynolds had said that she felt like she was "fired" from the ABC morning show, The View.
Today, Reynolds told the New York Daily News (NYDN), "For Barbara to say she felt betrayed is the height of hypocrisy." Star told People "I thought the audience deserved to have their Star tell them what the deal is. To now be accused of betrayal by someone I looked at as a mentor, when I was finally speaking up for myself instead of letting the executives and tabloids speak for me, is disheartening."
The magazine calls Star Jones dishonorably discharged from The View. One Life to Live actress, Renee Elise Goldsberry replaced Star temporarily on the View. Renee Elise is not a real lawyer like Star, but plays one on TV.
According to Bill Carter of the New York Times, ABC executives and Walters thought a deal had been worked out for Jones to leave. The decision had been made by ABC "months ago," Walters said on the air. Star's on-air statement on Tuesday should have been made two days later. The show had planned to send Jones off with a party and farewell show on July 13th.


As with any business, we understand that there are many questions regarding the roofing industry and our specific company. If you find that your questions aren't answered below, or you'd like additional clarification, please don't hesitate to contact us.
We are licensed roofing contractors in the state of Utah. We also have all necessary liability insurance.
Many times the first sign there is a major problem with your roof is a leak which can lead to much more damage and a higher cost to fix. To avoid leaks there are signs that a roof is getting to the end of it life. Cracked, warped or missing shingles is a sure sign that the asphalt in your shingles is drying out. Loose shingles or cracked pipe flashings are another sign that the components of your roofing system are wearing out. The easiest way to know if your roof is wearing out will be excessive surface granules accumulating in the gutters or downspouts.
How do I know if my roof needs to be torn off?
By code if there is only one layer of asphalt shingles on your roof, it can be laid over on with another layer of asphalt shingles. (As long as the single layer of shingles hasn't deteriorated to far) If there is more layers then one, the roof will need to be torn off. Additionally if you are transitioning from a shake, tile, gravel, etc. to an asphalt shingle, your roof will need to be stripped down to the wood and possibly sheeted.
We pride ourselves on responding quickly to all requests and questions you have. Depending on the season and weather, we can be up to 2 weeks out on our schedule. Once we have you scheduled though, the actual shingling of your house will take 1-3 days depending on size and the service we are performing.
My roof leaks. Do I need to have it completely replaced?
There can be many causes of leaks and depending on the integrity of the shingles on your roof many leaks can be repaired. With over fifty years of professional experience we are able to diagnose and repair most leaks.
How long can I expect my new roof system to last?
On most of our residential jobs we use an architectural grade shingle rated to last 30 years, we do also install 50 and limited lifetime shingles upon home owners request.
The actual life of a roof is determined by a number of factors, including local climatic and environmental conditions, proper building and roof system design, material quality and suitability, proper application and adequate roof maintenance.
There are many factors that go into the cost of a new roof. First is the amount of layers already installed. With only a single layer a second can be applied on top at a much lower cost, but popper installation is key to proper wear of the new shingles, and adding another layer will not often take care of active leaks. If there are two or more layers the roof must be stripped down to the decking which has added cost but allows for inspection of the decking and installation of an ice and water barrier along the edges and in the valleys. The cost of materials chosen along with pitch and design of the house will also affect the overall price of the bid. We give free estimates, and will go over all your options and answer any questions or concerns you may have.
Who will be doing the work on my house?
We at Neil Milne Roofing are committed to quality and customer satisfaction. We are a family owned and operated company, meaning that the people that come out to bid and inspect your roof will be the same people to do the work and see the job to its completion.


Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapy developed by Francine Shapiro that emphasizes disturbing memories as the cause of psychopathology and alleviates the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
EMDR is used for individuals who have experienced severe trauma that remains unresolved. According to Shapiro, when a traumatic or distressing experience occurs, it may overwhelm normal cognitive and neurological coping mechanisms. The memory and associated stimuli are inadequately processed and stored in an isolated memory network.
The goal of EMDR therapy is to process these distressing memories, reducing their lingering effects and allowing clients to develop more adaptive coping mechanisms. This is done in an eight-step protocol that includes having clients recall distressing images while receiving one of several types of bilateral sensory input, including side to side eye movements.
The use of EMDR was originally developed to treat adults suffering from PTSD; however, it is also used to treat other conditions and children.

Societe Generale has recently enhanced its parental leave policy in Singapore.
In a statement to Human Resources, Pascal Lambert, Group Country Head for Singapore and Head of South East Asia and India at Societe Generale, said: "Diversity remains an important issue for both ethical requirements and performance in Societe Generale. With our Diversity Board and strategic talent pools, we make it a priority to promote women and international profiles to positions of responsibility and senior management roles.
Maternity leave: 20 weeks of maternity leave will be offered compared to 16 weeks before.
Paternity and partner leave: Employees will now be entitled to 15 working days of paternity and partner leave – up from 10 working days before. This also applies to mothers in same-gender relationships who do not claim maternity leave.
Adoption and child surrogacy leave: Employees claiming the leave will need to self-declare as primary or secondary caregivers. Adoption leave entitlement will be aligned with maternity leave, while child surrogacy leave will be aligned with paternity and partner leave. For adoption, the age of the child in scope will increase from 12 months to 3 years.
Mukta Arya, Head of Human Resources, Southeast Asia and Head of People and Talent Development, Asia Pacific at Societe Generale, said: "Here at Societe Generale, our people are our most important assets and women are key contributors to our business. In our Singapore operations, women comprise nearly 50% of our workforce and they make up over 40% of the bank's managerial roles with 67% of women identified for talent development programs. We recognise the dual roles many of our female employees play and we want them to succeed both at work and at home.

In a slight that has forever tarnished our view of NPR's music department, Bob Boilen failed to choose Stefanie Santana's YouTube entry in this year's Tiny Desk Contest, which had bands recording themselves performing songs behind desks from coast to coast. Santana's entry shone not just because of the simple plinking beauty of her ukulele strumming on the song "Starfish Song (That's What You Get For Living in a Tidal Pool)," but also because of the insanely detailed construction-paper office she assembled as a backdrop. And then there was musical jack-of-all-trades Jack Burg, who nearly stole the show with a percussion part performed on a North Face jacket he was wearing. Rubbing the sleeves against the torso, he was able to very nearly simulate the sound of brushes on a snare drum — and he pulled it all off with a straight face.
