Why Was Korey Wise, Who Only Went To The Station To Support A Friend, Given The Most Time Behind Bars?
One member of the Central Park 5, Kharey Wise, who later changed his name to Korey, may have been particularly vulnerable.
By Gina Tron
LIVESTREAM CRIMES: Murder, Mayhem and Social Media
The "Central Park 5" case was one of the most publicized and controversial cases of the 1980s: five teens were falsely accused and convicted of raping and beating a woman in Central Park, and it would take years before they were exonerated. And while all of their stories are tragic, one of the five in particular had an especially difficult journey and spent more time behind bars than the other four.
As Ava DuVernay's new four-part Netflix series "When They See Us" shows, Raymond Santana, 14, Kevin Richardson, 14, Antron McCray, 15, Yusef Salaam, 15, and Kharey Wise, 16, were convicted of the rape and assault of 28-year-old Trisha Meili, an investment banker who was attacked in Central Park in 1989. All the boys spent between six and 13 years in prison for the attack before being exonerated in 2002 after the actual rapist, Matias Reyes, confessed.
Wise was the only one who was still imprisoned in 2002, and he served the most time behind bars in adult prisons, including at the infamous Rikers Island. But the thing is, Wise wasn't even a suspect to begin with. So why did he end up serving the most time?
As the series depicts, he only went down to the precinct to support his friend Salaam while police questioned him in connection with the rape. However police then decided to zero in on him, too, and because he was 16, he could be interrogated without a guardian — and be charged as an adult, the only member of the five old enough to be.

But he may have also been particularly vulnerable for other reasons than age. In her 2011 book, "The Central Park Five: The Untold Story Behind One Of New York City's Most Infamous Crimes," Sarah Burns writes that Wise had hearing problems from an early age and a learning disability that limited his achievement in school.
In her book she described Wise as having a "childlike nature." Burns, whose dad worked at a lawyer's office who represented the five in a lawsuit, referred to him as "the least developed emotionally and intellectually of the boys."
A videotaped confession shows a very confused Wise changing his story until he finally "confesses" to raping the victim. He was interrogated for hours until he provided multiple statements and two videotaped confessions, all of which wildly conflict with each other and the nature of the victim's injuries. In one of his videotaped confessions, he even claimed Meili was stabbed with a knife. In actuality, she was struck by a rock after initially being hit with a tree branch.
In that taped confession, he also said he changed his statement after a "detective came in my face, arguing with me, cursing at me, hitting on me."
On the stand he maintained he went to the park but said he left soon after, without participating in any violence.
"He explained that he'd then gone over to his girlfriend Lisa's place for most of the rest of the evening," Burns wrote.
The only violence he participated in, he claimed, came at the hands of police.
"He described being taken to the police precinct, and he accused Detective Nugent of slapping him and swearing at him, and telling him that he could go home if he lied and said he'd been there," she wrote.
While on the stand, he said he couldn't read or write very well and that he also had difficulty hearing. During cross examination, lead prosecutor Elizabeth Lederer asked him to read something and he couldn't. Then, according to Burns' book, she put records in front of him to prove that he hadn't been going to school.
That's when he explained that he was the victim of bullying.
"I was 12 years old back then. What does this have to do with Central Park," he testified according to the book. "The reason why I wasn't in school was because I was threatened not to go back to school. People putting guns to my head, that's why."
While imprisoned, Wise met the real rapist, Matias Reyes, behind bars who eventually admitted to the crime. DNA backed up that confession.
Even though he was exonerated, Wise had to spend years in adult prisons. "When They See Us" depicts some of the pain that he went through behind bars.
"One of the things that really struck me was when Korey said to me, 'There is no Central Park Five. It was four plus one. And no one has told that story,'" director Ava DuVernay told Town & Country. "I think it's important for people to understand the depths of what it means to be incarcerated in adult prisons in this country."
After he was released, Wise changed his first name from Kharey to Korey. He both established and funded the Korey Wise Innocence Project at Colorado Law School, which offers pro-bono legal counsel to wrongfully convicted people, like himself.
He is the only member of the five who chose to stay in New York City.
"You can forgive, but you won't forget," Wise in the 2012 documentary, "The Central Park Five." "You won't forget what you lost. No money could bring that time back. No money could bring the life that was missing or the time that was taken away."

Are you near Bristol TN/VA? I am also interested in a walking buddy.
My walking buddy is Dr. John, a retired pediatrician. Most Saturday mornings we walk 3.5 miles to get coffee. Round trip 7 miles. We have great conversations and laugh at each others sharp wit.
No, I do not. I really would like a walking buddy.
Yes. My BFF from high school. We walk together many times a month. She lives a few blocks from the local mall and when get together for dinner, I drive to her house and we walk to the mall/local restaurant for a meal. Also, we have joined our community walking club. We meet twice a week and walk for an hour, generally we do a 5k in the hour. If too hot or raining we meet at the mall and walk for an hour in the mall. A number of years ago, I got a fitbit to track my steps and sleep. This makes me more aware of how many steps I get per day. I now park at the far end of parking lots to get more steps and sometimes if time permits I even do a walk around the perimiter of the lot to get more steps.
My walking buddies are my two dobermans. I download on them and we all get all the exercises we need. At the end of the day it's good to have someone you don't have to debate with and you have the advantage of walking any time you want, morning, afternoon or night and their always ready and willing to go. lol Plus it keeps them in shape.
Any indoor places to walk in Las Vegas.?

Q: Connection to SerialPort in C# I have been attempting to connect to a serial port using System.IO.Ports. I have been having an issue where I do not get a response.
I am attemting to write this:
_serialPort.Write(new byte[] { 250, 209, f1, f2, f3, f4, a1, a2, g1, g2, s, 209 }, 0, 0);
var initialResponse = _serialPort.ReadLine();

and the response is empty.
Now, what is strange is this works in MatLab
s = serial('COM4');
fwrite(s, [250; 209; F1; F2; F3; F4; A1; A2; G1; G2; S; 209], 'uchar');
set(s, 'Timeout', 10);
Response = fread(s, 2)

Is there a difference in the byte arrays that could be causing this?

A: The third argument in Write tells you how many bytes of your array should acutally written. In your case it's 0, meaning the no bytes will be written. Try this:
var output = new byte[] { 250, 209, f1, f2, f3, f4, a1, a2, g1, g2, s, 209 };
_serialPort.Write(output , 0, output.Length);

NORMAN, Okla. —
Several players from a local baseball team have been suspended after a brawl on the field.

Why are my goggles leaking – they used to be perfect!
Goggles are a consumable item (albeit they can last for months of use with care). However, overtime the clarity degrades with exposure to the world, they start to fog, and seals start to alter…but follow the tips below for a longer goggle life.
My goggles have started leaking…why? They have been great for a while….
Chlorine is a harsh environment and will start to impact – as will the salt and sand of the sea…at least the goggles protect your eyes from these elements.
Similar to the black line of grease that you can sometimes see of the outside of the waterline of the swimming pool. Over a period of months there is often a build-up of body grease and oils on the inside of the lens. Yes, you do sweat in the pool and the skin around your eye balls is not excluded.
Generally, a good clean/ wipe around the gasket will fix this. We recommend foggle, it's a soft antifog towelette that adds a layer of anti-fog to the goggles. Used regularly, this towelette will remove the grime and grease around the eye gasket, giving them a longer life and clarity.
Additionally, keeping them clean and dry (rather than storing a in a damp humid swim bag for example) will prevent the onset of mould, which can also get in and around the seals.
So, keep them clean and dry, out of the heat and they will last longer with less chance of leaking. When they eventually do wear out…the blueseventy range has a plethora of options to choose from.

Thank You, Lynn
Lynn Shelton was an exceptional filmmaker. Like many, I was devastated to learn about her sudden passing. Shelton was 54.
I remember watching her work for the first time. I saw "Your Sister's Sister" (2011) at home, after renting it from Netflix. I wanted to see Emily Blunt's latest film and I didn't know much about it. Shelton brought to life an intimate story about three people struggling to find themselves, redefine themselves and their circumstances. It wasn't a flashy or showy film. Yet, I was struck with every element of the film.
So, when her film "Touchy Feely" (2013) came out, I sought it out. The film stars Rosemarie DeWitt as a massage therapist who suddenly has an aversion to touch. It has to be one of the most intriguing plots I've ever seen on film, especially in an independent film. It was inventive and simply human.

Her work was always human. She saw the weaknesses of people, but looked at the things that made people beautiful and wonderfully unique. She gave us the best of people in all circumstances. From her female empowerment/quarter life crisis film "Laggies" (2014) to the ex-con re-entering into the community film "Outside In" (2017) to her feature directorial debut about a 20-something woman meeting her 13 year old self "We Go Way Back" (2006).
"Her work was always human. She saw the weaknesses of people, but looked at the things that made people beautiful and wonderfully unique. She gave us the best of people in all circumstances."
Her latest film, "Sword of Trust" (2019), was something particularly special. "Sword of Trust" was my birthday movie. It was worth hunting it down at the only theater showing it in the area. It has Marc Maron attempting to sell a Confederate sword to someone who believes it is proof that the South won the Civil War. The film was entirely improvised, with an outline more than dialogue to guide her actors. Leaving the theater, I felt energized by the film. I knew I had just watched something special. That's truly how I felt after seeing every one of Shelton's films.

Shelton also left her mark on television. She directed episodes of "GLOW," "Love," "Mad Men," and "Fresh Off the Boat," to name a few. When you watched her episodes, you knew it was her. The energy, the attention to detail and the attention to people. She was always in-tune with the story and the actors. Her attentiveness to others radiated throughout her work.
"She taught us to lead with kindness. Kindness opens more doors than anything. She taught us that humans are magical, messy, special beings."
When not working behind the camera, Shelton was a champion for other female filmmakers. In 2012, she proudly presented Ava DuVernay the Directing Award at Sundance. She was a Sundance Labs advisor to Nia DaCosta. If you saw her interview with Amy Adrion in the documentary film "Half the Picture" (2018), you saw how much Shelton strove to provide opportunities to her peers. She was an incredible advocate for her peers.
Shelton was her own advocate, too. Shelton once said, "I self-generated my work, and I never went around asking permission to make it. The main reason women make inroads in independent film is that no one has to say, 'I pick you.' I'm not pounding on anyone's door. I"m just making my own way. You can buy a camera for $1,500. It's insane how easy it is to make a movie. You can make mistakes and throw it under the rug and keep going. You're not dependent on other people allowing you to do it."
Shelton has been one of my favorite directors for years. I am truly stunned. It does not seem possible that someone with so much ahead of her is gone. But there are many things Shelton taught us through her films and her actions.
"Shelton was her own advocate, too. Shelton once said, "I self-generated my work, and I never went around asking permission to make it…It's insane how easy it is to make a movie. You can make mistakes and throw it under the rug and keep going. You're not dependent on other people allowing you to do it."
She taught us to make our own opportunities. If there is a will, there is a way. You just have to be willing to take risks. And as you are given opportunities, pay it forward to others. There is nothing more magical than belonging to a community rather than basking in your own glory all alone. Shelton paid it forward in many ways.

She taught us to be giving. Giving to your cast and your crew, and in turn, they give you their best efforts. Because when people feel supported and appreciated, the ripple effects of actions will be endless. She taught us to lead with kindness. Kindness opens more doors than anything. She taught us that humans are magical, messy, special beings. And in all of that glorious mess is true beauty. Those were all of the stories she told.
It feels impossible to encapsulate everything that made Lynn Shelton an exceptional filmmaker and an incredible human being. She made phenomenal films and television. Her attentiveness made her vision truly special. And by all accounts, she was a remarkable, lovely human. All I can simply say is thank you. Thank you, Lynn. For everything.

No deposit casino bonuses for new players!
As online casino with no deposit bonus is becoming more popular by the second, it is still no surprise that a lot of people do not know anything about no deposit bonuses. So what is a no deposit bonus? No deposit casino bonuses are free bonuses that do not require any money from the player, and it is usually easy and quick to redeem. This type of bonus is usually the first thing you would see once you log on to an online casino with no deposit bonus. However, you would have to sign up and verify your account to receive this bonus.

There are four types of casino bonuses. They are; No Deposit Bonus: this type of bonus allows you to play the game for free, without having to deposit a penny for your wagers. You play the game for free, and your winnings are yours for the taking. The only way to enjoy this bonus is to follow the rules and regulations completely. Else, you might lose a lot of your winnings and the whole bonus. This bonus is only available to newly registered players. Free Play Bonus: this type of bonus allows you to play the game for free, but at a stipulated time only. It differs from the no deposit casino bonuses by the awarding of chips and its availability to all players. To harness this bonus well, you must make sure you available to use it for the stipulated time allowed. Once the time is up, you lose the bonus. If you can acquire winnings, you can withdraw them, but you would have to do so at the casino's terms and conditions. Slots Bonus: this is a type of bonus that is peculiar to slots machines. They are very similar to the other forms of bonus; the only difference is that they are restricted to a particular slot. They usually include free spins bonus and bonus cash. Mobile Casinos: the casino platform offers this bonus. Once acquired, it can be used on the allowed slots and games. It differs from one online casino platform to the other.
There is no doubt that you want to receive this bonus. The only thing that can stop you from harnessing your bonus is by not knowing the requirements. The wagering requirements are the rules that you must follow while using no deposit bonuses if you have intentions of cashing out any of your winnings. These rules share some similarities with the free spins bonus rules. It is quite simple though, if you have no deposit bonuses with a wagering requirement of 25X on a $25 no deposit bonus, you would have to play up to or more than $500 on bets and wagers before you can withdraw your earnings. That's a long way to go but is necessary for you to withdraw your earnings. Following this rule would make your gameplay easier when using your no deposit bonuses. Once you meet this rule completely, all your withdrawal requests would be processed and granted. Not following the rules would only make the gameplay worse. You might not only lose the ability to withdraw earnings, but also the no deposit casino bonuses in entirety. Once that happens, you would lose all the winnings you might have accumulated. In some cases, the online casino can decide to shut down the account of the user. This is rather extreme, however, reading the wagering requirements and other rules of gameplay would only save you from a lot of trouble and loss.
Every game comes with its set of rules that govern play and all the affairs of the game. Expect nothing less from a casino game. The no deposit bonuses terms and conditions specify the gameplay and the games that you can play with the bonus cash. After receiving a no deposit bonus, you would see a list of games that can be played, while the rest cannot. In a situation where you play the games that are not eligible by the no deposit casino bonus, you might forfeit all your winnings as a punishment for violating a rule. One can say that this is a little bit beyond punishment. However, rules are rules, and it would be in your best interest if you follow them. If you are accumulating a lot of winnings with your no deposit casinos bonus, it is best you know that there are withdrawal limits in a lot of cases. If the terms of the no deposit bonus state that the maximum withdrawal limit is $30 and you have won $80, it is sad to say that the remaining $50 would be forfeited automatically. No hard feelings, but this rule intends to deter bonus hunters from preying on the site and also reduce the financial liability of the casino.
No deposit bonuses are a huge advantage for players, except for the bonus hunters. It gives you the edge and a great way to start the game without accumulating loss as a first timer. It is normal that you are going to make mistakes and bad decisions; that is why the casino's no deposit bonus has got you covered. Do not be scared about withdrawing your winnings. Once you stick to the terms and conditions and do not exceed the withdrawal limit, you have nothing to worry about. Make sure you have a great time playing and try to learn much about the game as much as you can. Bonuses do not come that easy, make good use of the ones you win.

A&E /
Young Performers Festival provides a BEMF bonus series
By Matthew Guerrieri
Globe Correspondent / June 17, 2011
In addition to its official programs, the Boston Early Music Festival features a full slate of fringe concerts at various venues around town. Early Music America is presenting a particularly ambitious fringe series this year in the form of a Young Performers Festival: concerts by 14 college, university, and conservatory early-music groups from across North America.
Monday's three concerts were nicely varied in repertoire and approach. Under the direction of Mitos Andaya, the University of Georgia Collegium Musicum, a 15-voice choir of both music majors and amateurs from the UGA community, sang a nifty selection of works by 16th- and 17th-century women composers; alternating between the full ensemble and smaller groups, the program traced the gradual convergence of the quick-change expressiveness of secular love songs and the grander lines of sacred music. The culmination was a lively and estimable reading of an eight-part "Magnificat'' by Chiara Margarita Cozzolani, manifold and idiosyncratically epic, its rapid-fire juxtapositions realized with sweet-toned enthusiasm.
The Stony Brook Baroque Players, an undergraduate ensemble directed by Arthur Haas and Robert Warner, brought a travelogue program sampling Baroque dialects — German, French, Italian, English — ranging from Luigi Rossi's intimate cantata "Pianto della maddalena'' (a declamatory monologue given taut intensity by mezzo-soprano Katherine Kaiser) to Handel's vigorously fashionable Sinfonia in B-flat major (HWV 339). The playing cultivated virtues of the modern early-music movement showing as much of a reaction against Romantic luxury as the 20th-century avant-garde: crisp quickness, astringent sound, lissome phrasing.
On the other hand, luxury suffused the Harvard Early Music Society concert performance of Jean-Joseph de Mondonville's one-act opera-ballet "Bacchus et Erigone,'' the Ancien Régime's inimitable extravagance on ample display. The HEMS, under the direction of Edward Elwyn Jones, presented an opulent front: a stylish quartet of soloists (Claire Raphaelson, Ulysses Thomas, Owen McIntosh, and Jacob Cooper), who also danced a casually stepped "Tambourin'' finale; a sprightly, polished 14-voice chorus; and rich musical décor from the Harvard Baroque Chamber Orchestra.
The increasing prominence of historical-performance programs in music schools can be seen as symptomatic of increasing specialization. But Monday's concerts also allowed an appreciation of the different ways such early music can become part of student life — from Harvard's well-appointed edification to Stony Brook's professional development to UGA's community music-making.
The Young Performers Festival continues throughout the week, with the Festival Ensemble (a select, 34-member group directed by Scott Metcalfe) concluding the series on Saturday.

Ten Days Without the Times
Tags: The New York Times, Joan Didion, Junot Díaz
My wife, the Mistress of Syntax, likes to have The New York Times delivered, and when I know the paper's lurking outside the door, I can't resist reading it first thing in the morning. I also know that a half hour of total immersion in all the news that's fit to print about looming economic catastrophe, militarized computer hacking, and the latest Republican plot to hijack what's left of the democratic process, topped off with a dose of David Brooks's and Thomas Friedman's utter bullshit, will, by the time I need to put down the paper and get breakfast going, leave me feeling despondent. Reading the Times is hazardous to my mental health, and it should come with such a warning.
That's why, when my wife went out of town for ten days, I suspended the subscription. Instead, I began my day with a book. The first book I read was Joan Didion's Political Fictions, in part a bracing analysis of why much of what passes for "objective" political reporting in the Times (and elsewhere) is little more than a fantasy that the people in power and the journalists who cover them have agreed to tell. And though the book made me angry, it was a pure and satisfying kind of anger that confirmed my worst suspicions and brought me to a higher level of understanding, rather than leaving me feeling despondent and helpless.
The book I'm reading now, This Is How You Lose Her, a collection of short stories, by Junot Díaz, is literature in the best sense of that word. Díaz is all about voice—the natural voice of the street—as much as he's about storytelling, and it's the kind of writing that inspires and motivates me, which is the highest compliment I can pay any author.
But Díaz will have to wait, because tonight the wife returns, and that means tomorrow morning, The New York Times will again be lurking outside the door, and I will not be able to resist its siren call, and I will give myself over to the illusion that if I read it, I will know what's happening in the world.

Why I Like Joan Didion
Tags: Joan Didion, politics, reviews

Variations on "What writers have most influenced you?" is a question I often get during interviews. The unsurprising short answer is Hunter Thompson, Henry Miller, and Philip Roth. (Click here for more detail.) But the list goes on to include George Orwell, Joseph Heller, and one woman, Joan Didion, now the only writer on the list who's both alive and active.
It was Heller who brought Didion to my attention, back in 1972. For a fiction writing class at City College, he put Play It As It Lays on a list of the greatest novels of the 20th century. (The list also included Catch-22.) Though I didn't enjoy it when I read it then, a recent rereading of this story of a woman's life in Hollywood proved Heller correct: Play It As It Lays is a great book.
But it was Didion's essay collection Slouching Towards Bethlehem which I first read in grad school and have reread countless times since then, that proved influential. The essays are textbook examples of first-person journalism at its best—a perfect fusion of style, emotion, and information. And the title essay, about Haight-Ashbury in 1967, is one of those rare pieces of writing that I read and thought, "This is what I should be doing." I also love the simple truth she expresses in the preface: "Writers are always selling somebody out." Every serious writer should have that embroidered in needlepoint and hung on their wall. Because if you're not selling somebody out, what you're doing is PR.
I'm writing about Didion now because the other week, I finally picked up her 2001 essay collection, Political Fictions, a series of devastating takedowns of the democratic process, the journalists who cover politics, the politicians themselves, and the books that some of these politicians have written. What I like most about the essays is that Didion tells the truth as she sees it and, unlike the journalists she's writing about, she doesn't care who never speaks to her again. She sells out everybody.
For example, perhaps the kindest thing she says in "Newt Gingrich, Superstar," about the literary output of the former speaker of the house is: "To Renew America shows evidence of professional copy-editing."
And in "Political Pornography," she says of the oeuvre of Bob Woodward, stenographer to the Washington power elite: "These are books in which measurable cerebral activity is virtually absent."
Much of what Didion writes is truer now than it was 12 years ago. Which is why nobody mentioned in these 322 pages has ever used one word of Didion's as a blurb on a book cover. Read More

Athlete Ranks New Life Greater Than Olympic Gold
Home Athlete Ranks New Life Greater Than Olympic Gold
Suppose you had a chance to win a medal at the Athens Olympics. Could anything make you turn it down?
Olympic success can bring fame, lifetime honor and lucrative endorsement contracts. Olympic games usually bring many inspiring stories of victory through determination and achievement despite adversity. Stars are born and careers receive quantum boosts.
Consider British hurdler Tasha Danvers-Smith. She has been ranked sixth in the world in her event. Her Olympic prospects looked bright.
But her ticket to the Athens track was never punched. It wasn't injury or defeat that kept her from competing in the games. It was her personal choice.
Tasha Danvers married her coach, Darrell Smith, in November 2003. In early 2004, she was in excellent physical shape and keenly focused on her training. Then, as she told the Telegraph newspaper, she felt tired all the time, feeling flat for no reason.
In the spring, a home pregnancy test showed positive and she learned she was nine weeks pregnant. "I was in shock, reports Danvers-Smith. I only took the test because I wanted to stop myself worrying about it. Not for one minute did I think it would be positive. The couple had not planned to start a family until after the Olympics.
Having a baby in December would eliminate her chances of competing in Athens in August. It would increase their expenses and mean lean times. They did not own a home and were living with her husband's parents. She – through her athletic competition – was the main source of income.
As she put it, When my body is my business, then if my body is not functioning, there is no business.
Feeling devastated, the couple considered an abortion. It would seem a simple solution to an inconvenient problem, a comparatively easy way to eliminate an obstacle to the success and recognition she sought.
The thought [of an abortion] did cross our minds as an option," recalls Danvers-Smith. But this line from the Scriptures kept coming into my head: 'For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?
She tried to convince herself that she should terminate her pregnancy but struggled through her tears with an alternative she could not accept: "For me, the whole wide world was the Olympics. At the same time, I felt I would be losing my soul. It just wouldn't fit well. It would be a forced decision . . . something that wasn't going to make me happy at all.
Aiming now for the 2008 games, she seems happy with her choice and philosophical about her mixed metaphor situation: Life throws you curve balls and you just have to roll with the punches."
Abortion is, of course, one of today's most controversial issues. But regardless of one's views on this emotionally explosive topic, it seems appropriate to admire the dedication of a woman who wrestled with an agonizing decision and made her choice to bear her child and postpone possible future glory and fortune.
Regardless of what success eventually comes her way, might that choice become Danvers-Smith's lifetime golden moment?

The significance of CSV has been demonstrated in autoimmune disorders, viral infection and cancer progression. Expression of CSV on activated macrophages, platelets and apoptotic T lymphocytes evidenced its participation to human neutrophil spontaneous apoptosis and further corroborated its association with inflammatory diseases and signalings.3 As a putative anti-viral drug target, CSV takes part in viral multiplication by facilitating the internalization of virions.4 Furthermore, studies have identified CSV as cancer specific EMT marker. CSV expression is shown to have correlated with metastatic phenotypes in aggressive cancer and sarcoma. Due to vimentin's unique characteristics of translocating from intracellular to extracellular region in cells undergoing EMT, detection and identifying cells expressing CSV demonstrated high specificity in isolating cancer cells.5,6,7 Recent advances explored the possibility of leveraging CSV's distinctiveness in cancer therapy.8 CSV targeted therapy successfully increased caspase-3 activity and induced cancer cell apoptosis. With such a success and impact on the oncology community, clinical research advances in CSV study is expected to excel.
Abnova obtains worldwide exclusive license of the patented CSV monoclonal antibody, clone 84-1, from MD Anderson Cancer Center, United States. This antibody has been validated for its intended use in majorities of cancer cell lines by both immunofluoresence and flow cytometry.9 As a sole provider for this powerful tool, Abnova hopes to propel the investigations on cancer research with specificity and broad applicability.
Circulating tumor cells derived from colorectal cancer patients were stained for nucelus (blue), cell surface vimentin (green, H00007431-M08) and specific EMT biomarkers (red), including FOXC2, TWIST-2, SNAIL, SLUG, EpCAM and E-cadherin6.
Immunological assessment of CSV in various cancer cell lines and normal cell lines using flow cytometry in which only cancer cells, including GEO (colorectal cancer), MDA-MB-231 (breast cancer) and PANC-1 (pancreatic cancer) can be detected by CSV, 84-1 (H00007431-M08)6.
Immunological assessment of CSV in various cancer cell lines and normal cell lines using flow cytometry in which only cancer cells, including SKNBE-2 (neuroblastoma), RH-41 (rhabdomyosarcoma) and LM7 (osteosarcoma) can be detected by CSV, 84-1 (H00007431-M08)5.
Stem-cell liked cancer cell populations, csVim+ CD133- and csVim- CD133+, were isolated and sorted into sub-G1, G1, S and G2 phases from primary HCC using CSV, 84-1 (H00007431-M08)7.

Arsenal: Donyell Malen reportedly a major money transfer target
By Lee Connor
Arsenal are looking to bid €56m (roughly £50m) to bring young striker Donyell Malen back to the club.
The PSV youngster has been hitting the headlines thanks to some excellent performances which have seen him hit the back of the net eight times already this season in the Eredivisie.
According to a report from Italian publication Calciomercato, the Gunners are keen on signing the 20-year-old in a move which would see them bring back a player who was on the books at the Emirates up to 2017.
However, Arsenal could face competition from AC Milan to land the youngster after the Italian giants reportedly made their interest in the forward known.
Malen has already demonstrated his ability in front of goal this season when he scored all five goals in a game against Vitesse Arnhem for current club PSV, and it is that sort of finishing ability which has seemingly got Arsenal considering a move to bring him back to the Emirates.
Malen, who can (as explained by Transfermarkt) play as a central striker or in either of the wide forward positions, has already been given full international honours by Holland after his form caught the eye of manager Ronald Koeman.
Still, right now, with the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette leading the line for the Gunners, goals don't seem to be the problem. Indeed, while Malen is obviously younger than those two, the likes of Nicolas Pepe, Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka do offer longer-term options in North London.
While Malen is obviously a talent and it must be frustrating for the club to have let him go, spending big money to bring him back seems unwise in the near future. Defensive problems continue to undermine Unai Emery's attempts to take the Gunners back to the Champions League and the form of Martinelli in cup competitions this season would suggest the club don't need many more forwards.
Is Unai Emery the right man for Arsenal?
Why would Arsenal move for him? Join the discussion by commenting below…

Many studies support the finding climate change is deemed a relevant and important issue by the public, but frequently disappears from the public consciousness when individuals are not directly impacted by its effects, supplanted by more immediate economic and geopolitical issues. Rather than removing it from public concern, Creutizig et al. aim to attack environmental concerns and socioeconomic problems concurrently, with a sweeping energy policy change. Creutzig et al. (2014) argue climate change and the European Union (EU) periphery's economic recession could be mitigated and solved, respectively, by having member country legislators focus efforts on a policy transition toward sustainable, nonconventional sources of energy. The study argues that an energy conversion of this magnitude would have several net positive effects for a plurality of EU member countries on pressing issues such as employment, trade deficits and GDP growth, with focuses on "technical and economic potential for renewable electricity generation across Europe," "potential co-effects of a European energy transition," "barriers to a (periphery-focused) European energy transition," and "the issue of a European energy transition in the periphery to the larger context of a common project for Europe." The entirely new approach to energy policy implementation outlined in the study may not only be integral to lessening the European economic recession but also to significantly improving governmental efficiency in peripheral EU countries.
The study cites a triad of rationales for focus on changes in peripheral EU country energy production infrastructures: peripheral economic depression affects all EU member states, investment in peripheral member states' energy security may increase wealth parity across the EU, and a successful recovery from the recession may lead to willingness to contribute to an energy transition. While there would be certain tangible effects of a transition to renewable energy sources in periphery countries (Ireland, Italy, Poland, Spain, Greece), including a projected 0.5%-1.0% increase in GDP due to the multiplier of fiscal spending in Europe being between 0.8 and 21 (Baunsgaard et al. 2012, cited by Creutzig et al. 2014), the most important byproduct may be "a renewed solidarity between European citizens…even if hard to quantify in monetary or other economic units." A more noticeable change would be that of European employment, particularly in the industrial manufacturing sector. In the European Renewable Energy Directive for 2020, a goal of 20% renewable energy is set, and under this scenario, "Greece is projected to have an employment gain of roughly 1% and Spain of 0.6%, while Ireland only sees a negligibly small but still positive impact on employment," mostly caused by employment opportunities created by an energy transition. Finally, a majority of peripheral EU countries are net importers of energy, bringing in 2%-15% of their energy from foreign EU states. This lack of energy security is concerning to the authors, and could be solved by tapping into the potential of wind power, which is particularly prevalent on the northern periphery of the EU, in Ireland and Spain. In conclusion, the tangible and intangible effects of a massive changeover to renewable energy would be tremendous, including increased in EU GDP, employment and trade surpluses, and finally, trust. Creutzig et al. make a strong argument for tackling the recent European economic downturn and climate mitigation in one motion, and provide valuable models to prove the net positive effects of bringing climate change into the public consciousness permanently.

There is a video that has gone viral on Facebook of a dog wearing a spider costume. It got me thinking that maybe I should buy Milo his first Halloween costume this year.
When I started looking at the options of Halloween costumes for dogs, it really is hard to choose. There are so many adorable costume options.
Of course, you need to know what your dog will tolerate with wearing clothes. Some of these costumes are pretty elaborate and involve clothing on the dog's head and feet. After seeing how Milo walked in boots last winter, I don't think costumes with feet would work for him.
If are looking for a Halloween costume for your dog, all of these will be a big hit at a party and help you collect lots of candy while you are out trick or treating.
Elf costume…perfect for Halloween and Christmas!
This last one I had to include because I hear over and over that people think Milo looks like an ewok.
I've never really been a Star Wars fan, but I'm tempted to buy it anyway.
What about you…do you dress up your dog for Halloween?
If you do, I'd love to hear about your favorite costume and how your dog does with things like hats and clothing on his feet.

These are so adorable! I really wish my cats would wear costumes!
The Ewok costume is absolutely adorable! And the hot dog one is too much pardon-the-pun like. I'd vote for Ewok one!
all 10 of these costumes are adorable 🙂 I think my Macy would have to be the skunk, she is so spoiled she stinks!! 🙂 Thanks for sharing at our Retro Re-Pin party!
I love the first two costumes!
It's so hard to find costumes that fit German shepherds. I really want a shark or a Batman costume for Leo. Someone suggested I get a child's costume and modify it. Mia is less tolerant of costumes, but I really wanted to try this 3X-large Chewbacca hoodie from Petco. However, the reviews made me think it probably wouldn't be big enough.
I imagine it is hard finding costumes for big dogs. I saw a few cape type of costumes online. One was Zorro and quite cute. That might work for you. If you click through to the links, you'll see some other costume options. I pulled them from 3 different sites to get some variety.
You are so right! Big dogs are discriminated against at Halloween. Even costumes that say XXL won't fit around Jedi's chest and/or aren't long enough for his body. I've seen several craftier-than-me owners alter child costumes.
I loved the video. Looks like Milo just couldn't get that left hind leg to act right – BOL.All the costumes are adorable too!
I eventually gave up using the booties because he would end up walking them off a couple of times during each walk. The front legs stayed on well…maybe this year I'll just use front booties and at least 2 of his feet will be warm.
That video made my day! So funny:) Thanks for sharing with us at the Teach Me Tuesday Linky Party!
Love this post! Well, errrr, I'm very well known to LOVE to dress up!
They have Halloween costumes too. Hee Hee!
Hi – nice to meet you. We just hopped over here from Pepi's blog hop. Now me – I don't like to dress up for Halloween, but you doggies sure do look cute in them.
Very nice collection, thanks for sharing with Hearth and Soul blog hop. pinning.
So cute! Olive is going to be Yoda this year. She actually seems to like wearing the costume: http://instagram.com/p/tgcvAjIHJO/?modal=true.
Pug has a pumpkin and hot dog costume. But we need the Ewok!

Nokia 9 PureView specifications, features, price: rumour roundup
Abhiman Biswas
"Everything we know about the Nokia 9 PureView in one place"
From slab-like, utilitarian smartphones like the Nokia 3 (first impressions) and Nokia 5 (first impressions) to a much polished Nokia 8 Sirocco (review), the yesteryear's brand has come a long way under the aegis of HMD Global. But amidst all these launches, one smartphone that everyone has been looking forward to is the Nokia 9. Expected to be the brand's flagship offering, the device has been in the rumour mill for over an year. However, it now seems that the Nokia 9 PureView's launch is closer than ever as recent rumours and speculations suggest. So if you are impatiently waiting for the handset, and want to know what all it could bring to the table, here's everything that you need to know.
Not two, not three, not four but five cameras on the rear
Ever since the rumour of Nokia 9's camera setup broke out, it has been the hottest topic on the Internet. Notably, the upcoming flagship will be the world's first-ever smartphone to come with a total of five cameras on the rear panel with sensors from Zeiss Optics. While the actual details of these snappers are not known, it's being speculated that the module will have a telephoto lens, a wide-angle lens, and a depth-sensing camera, among others. A leaked promotional video in the past has given us an insight into the features of the penta-cam setup. The cameras are capable of capturing five simultaneous pictures to capture 10 times more light for enhanced photos in the low light. Users can also adjust the focus of images after they have been captured.
Premium glass sandwich design and tall display
In November last year, 91mobiles, revealed the 5K renders and 360-degree video of the upcoming phone and if they are of any indication, we can expect the Nokia 9 PureView to be one of the better-looking flagships from the brand's stables. The rumours suggest that the smartphone will come with a glass-sandwich design with a slightly curved rear panel and Gorilla Glass on both the front and back. The smartphone is expected to come with a 5.9-inch display with QHD resolution and 18:9 aspect ratio. There are speculations that Nokia 9 PureView could also be the first from the brand to come with an under-display fingerprint scanner. Unfortunately, the 3.5mm audio socket that was ditched on the Nokia 8 Sirocco will likely be missing from the upcoming flagship as well.
Top-of-the-line hardware
While Nokia is known more for its affordable and mid-range smartphones, its flagship offerings can easily match other high-end devices toe-to-toe. The same is expected to be the case with the forthcoming Nokia 9 PureView. According to the rumours, the flagship will come equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, aided by up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Further, the phone is expected to be powered by a beefy 4,150mAh battery.
Latest and purest iteration of Google's OS
Since HMD Global has announced that all its smartphones will be Android One offerings, the Nokia 9 PureView can also be expected to be the part of the same. The upcoming handset is likely to boot the latest Android 9.0 Pie out of the box. This means that along with a bloat-free and cleaner UI, the Nokia 9 PureView will receive two more major updates including the Android Q. Additionally, the smartphone will receive three years of month security patches from Google.
Nokia 9 PureView rumoured pricing and availability
There have been several rumours in the past regarding the launch date of the Nokia 9 PureView. A more recent report suggests that HMD Global will launch the phone globally by the end of January 2019. The global launch of the handset will be followed by India launch in February. However, another report suggests that we'll get to see the Nokia flagship at MWC next month. Irrespective, we hopefully won't have to wait for long to see the Nokia 9.
As for the pricing, the flagship is rumoured to be the most expensive Nokia offering to date. If a recent leak is to be believed, the smartphone will be priced around Rs 65,000.

Al voltant de la pel·lícula
 La pel·lícula deu una part de la seva notorietat a la banda original de la pel·lícula composta per Stevie Wonder. Mentre treballa sobre les composicions originals del llarg metratge, Wonder hi afegeix una cançó en la qual treballa intensament des de fa diversos anys. La cançó en qüestió, I Just Called to Say I Love You, aconsegueix l'Oscar a la millor cançó original i és un dels més grans èxits de la seva carrera.
 La pel·lícula és un remake d' Un éléphant, ça trompe énormément d' Yves Robert.
 La dona de vermell és igualment un dels primers llargs metratges a ser classificat PG-13 als Estats Units.

Q: Landscape Layout won't apply I am trying to use a different layout for landscape orientation. I followed the guide of school and because it didn't work a guide on the web.
What I have done:

*

*Add an extra directory for landscape

*Add the xml files (with the same name)

*I didn't add the config changes: orientation thing in my XML file

But as far as I find this is the only thing you need to do... Correct me if I am wrong.
If you need more information just let me know.
EDIT:

Screenshot of manifest:

A: At one moment one of my changes was implemented but not all of them. So I did a clean of my build and ran it again and it worked. Probably the app had a sort of cashing.

By all accounts, her father was a hard- working, diligent man, who held three jobs simultaneously in order to support his family. The plot of Beloved evolves in a nonlinear, branching way. " The "present" is located on the outskirts of Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1873, where Sethe, a former slave, lives with her daughter Denver. The "past" occurs approximately eighteen years earlier, in the plantations of eastern Kentucky, the plantations from which Sethe escapes, fleeing slavery and bringing her four children with her.

OneDrive for iOS has been given a significant update, with a refreshed UI, better support for accessing SharePoint files, drag and drop support, a bunch of new file previewers and tighter integration with the iOS Files app. These are welcome changes that make Microsoft's file sync and share service feel more like an integrated part of iOS than a bolt-on app.
A recent update to the NTFS client for Window places limits on the file-sync system. Support for FAT, exFAT and ReFS volumes has been removed with NTFS now the only local disk format supported. The problem is - they forgot to let people know the change was coming.
One of the biggest hassles with having multiple computing devices is being able to access your data in the office, at home and when travelling. Back in the 1990s, when I started working in IT, Microsoft had a crack at this with the Briefcase feature that was part of Windows 95 but it was pretty poor.
By the mid to late 2000s, cloud storage services came to the fore, making it easy to access up to date versions of our workfiles wherever and whenever we wanted. But how do we use these services and get the most out of them?
Access to decent cloud storage is practically a necessity these days whether it's for work or play, but everyone seems to have an opinion on which one is best. Let's break down three of the most popular file syncing services out there and see which one reigns supreme.
Android: Microsoft's OneDrive doesn't always get the credit it deserves, but it's a pretty solid competitor to apps like Google Drive and Dropbox. Now, it's catching up more with a new scan feature.
OneDrive for Windows shows you all the files in your locker — but they're not necessarily all stored locally on your machine. If you want to make sure they are all synced and available the next time your Wi-Fi connection disappears, here's how to do it.
A few weeks ago, Microsoft decided to downgrade its OneDrive online storage arrangements, which rubbed a number of its customers the wrong way. Since then, the vendor has backed down, just a tad bit. Existing OneDrive users can keep their 15GB storage limit. Here's how it can be done.
Last month, Microsoft did a massive downgrade on all its OneDrive accounts, getting rid of unlimited storage, cutting large pay plans and decreasing the amount of storage for free tiers. Today, they're backpedalling on some of that, but you'll need to opt-in to get it.
Bad news for Office 365 Home, Personal or University subscribers: Microsoft is no longer offering unlimited OneDrive cloud storage for those customers. The company has made changes to its free OneDrive storage plan for standalone users as well.
OneDrive comes installed with Windows 10 and is enabled by default if you sign on with a Microsoft account. If you don't use OneDrive, however, and you don't want it running in the background, there are some hoops you can jump through to disable it or get rid of it everywhere in Windows 10.
Like previous versions of Windows, File Explorer has a space-wasting OneDrive icon in the left sidebar. If you don't use OneDrive, you can remove this icon with a simple registry tweak.
Ask LH: How Can I Sync My Various Macs?
Dear Lifehacker, We live in a world with multiple computers for one person, but I am having one issue. How can we keep everything in sync? I would like to work on my Mac at home. Close it, go to work and open my (different) Mac at work. I want the same configuration (yes, I do have some tendencies...), same files, same everything where I left off at home. Any suggestions?
Ask LH: Can I Trust OneDrive With My Personal Data?
Hi Lifehacker, I recently signed up for Microsoft's OneDrive, but I'm still not sure: can data I store there be manipulated, copied or accessed by Microsoft staff? I have all the personal information on my drive now synced, and it's something of a concern.
Ask LH: What's The Best Way To Backup And Share Business Files In The Cloud?
Hi Lifehacker, We're thinking about updating our file server in the office so that it automatically backs up data to the cloud. We would ideally want to continuously sync the data as users modify the files quite often.
In a clear play to get Dropbox users over into their own cloud storage camp, Microsoft is offering an extra 100GB of OneDrive storage for free for a year. All you need to do is sign into OneDrive (or create an account) and let OneDrive send a file to your Dropbox account to verify you are a Dropbox user. Then you should have an additional 100GB of space for 12 months.
One of the peculiarities of online storage platforms is that consumers are often given access to features ahead of paying business customers. And so it proves with the enterprise-focused ProPlus version of Office 365, which is belatedly adding support for OneDrive for Business.

Q: How to efficiently overwrite the memory region on GPU? I allocate the data block on GPU. And I have an algorithm to generate new data to replace the old one. The new buffer has the same data size. There is a solution is to bring the old data back to the cpu and then erase it but I think that's highly inefficient and very slow. Is it possible to overwrite the old element with the new data at the same location?

A: If your kernels accept a pointer that's pointing to some buffer region, you may be able to just pass the original data pointer to that kernel, causing your input data to be overwritten by the results of the kernel.
Or if you're working with an algorithm that requires using a buffer, you could use cudaMemcpy to copy the results stored in the buffer to the region of memory holding your input data, overwriting it in the process.
