In addition to recent attempts to reform the Honor Code, the University is currently considering a reform of the academic calendar.
In October 2016, the Task Force on General Education made six recommendations in regard to undergraduate studies, one of which suggested that fall exams be moved to before winter break by beginning the fall semester earlier. At the time of the Task Force recommendations, 75 percent of students who participated in an Undergraduate Student Government survey expressed support for this change.
The Ad Hoc Committee on Calendar Reform, charged in spring 2017 and composed of faculty members, two undergraduate students, and one graduate student, released a final survey on Jan. 30 to gather student opinions on the proposed new calendar. This calendar features a fall semester that would begin as early as Sept. 1 and end between Dec. 19 and 23, resulting in shortened reading periods and finals periods. By comparison, the spring semester would remain unchanged, save beginning and ending a week earlier.
"The challenge has been how to accomplish this without sacrificing the unique and positive features in our current calendar, like the reading period and midterm break," wrote computer science professor Aarti Gupta, the Ad Hoc Committee Chair, in an email to The Daily Princetonian.
"In addition to better alignment with study abroad and summer programs/internships, we hope that the proposed calendar will lead to new intellectually enriching opportunities for students on campus and abroad during January," he wrote.
Like the majority of student responses to the USG survey conducted in October 2016, most students interviewed by the 'Prince' were in favor of the new calendar.
In response to these concerns, which were also voiced by three other students interviewed, Connor Pfeiffer '18, an undergraduate member of the Ad Hoc Committee, commented that the late end to the semester would be necessary to accomplish the calendar reform's main goals.
While no students interviewed expressed strong opposition towards the calendar reform, some conveyed little issue with the current academic calendar structure.


Robert Timms Jnr may have retired in 1969, but the principles that underpinned his success remain. Our coffee embodies quality and is true to Robert Timms Jnr's famous promise: "I would personally sign every coffee bean if I could".
We do more than just roast and blend coffee. We live it, breathe it and are dedicated to it, personally tasting every roast before it is packaged for sale.
Green beans from around the world are carefully selected for their unique flavour characteristics, and then combined to create premium blends. Many factors play a part in creating the unique personality of each bean – the soil, the way the beans are processed, the climate and varietal of bean to name a few.
Our blends typically contain beans from between two to five different origins from around the world. Our experienced team source the finest green beans and artfully combine them to create the desired blends of taste and quality.
At The House of Robert Timms, this involves tasting every batch by our experienced team at every stage of processing. Each batch of coffee is tested multiple times by cupping, a process used to verify quality and taste parameters. Our team get to know the unique personality of each coffee to uncover how to bring it out the best so that only the highest quality coffees get to our customers.
There are between 200 and 1,000 different flavour and aroma chemicals in a coffee bean, that uniquely combine to make coffee such a desirable product.
As the beans are gently heated, coffee oil starts to release, and acids present in the bean reduce. The coffee beans start cracking open as moisture escapes, and by the end of roasting will have increased substantially in size, as well as being reduced in weight.
Our approach is to treat each blend differently, working to adapt the intensity of the roast and the combination of beans to find the sweet spot of optimal aroma and flavour. Roast levels are used to create different flavours.
Lighter roasts tend to create more top notes, or acidic flavours, and darker roasts tend to create more depth and sweetness in the flavour. When it comes to roasting, we treat the process like the art it is.
It takes quality beans, skilled people and a rigorous process to produce the consistently excellent coffee that you can expect from The House of Robert Timms.
The House of Robert Timms has been locally roasting coffee since 1951, so it's fair to say that the locals have become accustomed to the delicious smell of fresh coffee that is carried on the breeze.
It takes a lot of skill to maintain consistency when roasting coffee. Our dedicated team of roasters use strict colour and temperature guidelines to roast to specific profiles.
Whether it's a full-bodied, dark roast or a lighter, delicate roast, we are passionate about bringing out the best in each coffee so that you can taste it at its freshest, most aromatic and flavoursome.
Coffee Board of Kenya and Coffee Exporter are just two of the hats that The House of Robert Timms' Coffee Technologist, Sam, has worn in the past. From green beans to perfect piccolo lattes, Sam knows his stuff!
A typical day for Sam involves tasting, tasting and more tasting! Responsible for testing all the green beans, judging the quality of the green beans, approving samples, checking deliveries against approved samples, testing the roasted beans as well as all the final products, Sam is on the front line in the war against bad coffee and he is winning!
iconic Australian brand that symbolises a wealth of expertise and knowledge.

This week an inter-parliamentary group from Iran visited France for the enhancement of parliamentary, economic and political relations between Tehran and Paris. The Iranian delegation of three senior MPs was headed by Chairman of the Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Alaeddin Boroujerdi. The talks were deemed by both France and Iran to have been constructive.
Boroujerdi's interview with France 24 indicates that the nuclear issue and ISIS were at the top of the agenda in the meetings: the West wants Iran to help fight ISIS in return for a favourable outcome to the nuclear negotiations.
In a panic at the thought of closer ties between the two countries, Israel set about trying to disturb the atmosphere in the French parliament by pushing the terrorist Mojahedin Khalq leader Maryam Rajavi into a meeting with legislators in order to voice Israeli concerns and demands.
But using the MEK will never work out positively for Israel, for the simple reason that the MEK are incapable of making any difference to anyone or any situation of any real importance. Instead the MEK will only make things worse.
The Iranian delegation did not discuss the MEK, nor did they react to the presence of Rajavi nearby – it could be of course that the French parliamentarians hosting the Iranian delegation had been too embarrassed to bring the impromptu affair to their attention as it was irrelevant to the work of the delegation. However, Iran's Fars News Agency published without comment the content of Maryam Rajavi's speech which spoke for itself.
Yet only a few months previously MEK websites were filled with pages showing support for ISIS when Rajavi believed the terrorist army would overrun Baghdad and take over the MEK camp near the airport.
As though to confirm and cement her ignorance and stupidity, Maryam Rajavi finally mentions her hostages in Camp Liberty and says she hopes that with the "removal of Maliki in Iraq, the French government would use all means possible for Camp Liberty to be recognized as a refugee camp under the United Nations' supervision".
Maryam Rajavi has clearly not read Massoud Khodabandeh's fourth report from Baghdad on the current situation of the MEK and Camp Liberty published in October. This report makes it clear that the new government of Iraq led by Prime Minister Abadi has already put in place plans to expedite and speed up the process of removing the MEK entirely from Iraqi territory. Apparently Abadi is even more keen than Maliki to be rid of the MEK, and the UN agrees.
When a supporter of ISIS sits in the French parliamentary building and attacks President Obama, the cracks are seriously beginning to show in the West's approach to resolving the whole Middle East situation. Observers may not be sufficiently informed to tell Western governments what to do in their own interests, but any schoolchild can point out the damage the MEK is doing to them.

Rumble in the Jungle Muhammad Ali George Foreman Boxing Poster
Original Vintage Sports Boxing Memorabilia Collectibles For Sale
"The Rumble in the Jungle", 1974
Muhammad Ali vs George Foreman
Original Vintage Boxing Fight Poster
This is an original fight poster to the fight dubbed "The Rumble in the Jungle" between Muhammad Ali (Cassius Clay) and George Foreman held in Zaire , Africa on September 24, 1974.. The fight was originally planned for September 24th but was rescheduled to the 29th October (US time) after Foreman suffered a cut in training. Ali shocked the world, knocking out the "unbeatable" Foreman in the 8th round.
The poster is cardstock and measures 14 x 20". Excellent condition for its age with just a minor handling wear.. Nice bright colors, NOT faded like many of these we have seen.. This poster was for the close circuit telecast of this historic boxing match at the Burlington Memorial Auditorium in Burlington Vermont over 40 years ago. The poster has some minor wear on the corners and border. Also, there's some marker or sharpie print at the bottom of the poster telling you where you can go to get tickets at Rudy's Barber shop which was still open until recently, adding a nice authenticity provenance to this terrific piece fo sports history! One of the best examples of this desirable poster that you could hope to find.
* See enlageable images above and below
This was the first heavyweight championship fight ever fought in Africa !! And, it is the most famous and most heavily depicted heavyweight fight in history pitting these two former Olympic Gold Medal winners, the much heavily favored Foreman against the underdog, Ali. Foreman was undefeated up until this time. The critics, the world believed Foreman was invincible. He made such quick work over Joe Frazier and Ken Norton that I remember the ring side announcers joking that "Forman must have left the car running".
Ultimately it was a fight that proved Ali was "The Greatest," as he defeated Foreman in the 8th round. Ali allowed Foreman to punch himself out as Ali performed his famous "Rope-A-Dope," technique. And, at the right moment, Ali unleased a flurry of lightening speed punches that just overwhelmed the giant Foreman and sent him to the canvas as the world looked on in disbelief. As a result of this fight, Muhammad Ali was named Fighter of the Year by Ring magazine, and "Sportsman of the Year" by Sports Illustrated! Ali also received the honor of being named Professional Athlete of the Year and received the 1974 Hickok Belt Award. But, maybe his highest honor was on December 20, 1999 when Sports Illustrated named Muhammad Ali "Athlete of the Century".
The significance of this RARE poster cannot be understated! The poster offered here was actually made for the fight that took place and was actually used to promote it for a telecast showing in the USA.!
Poster is printed on cardboard, great color and design graphics. ..* Beware of the reproductions which are usually 11x14" and on a thin glossy paper.
The most desirable poster for this most significant fight that the boxing world have ever seen. (Other than Zaire site poster that sells for 10-15 thousand dollars). * Of course these posters will continue to skyrocket in value.
Description: George Foreman VS. Muhammad Ali, the 1974 sport boxing event ("Live from Africa on Big Screen Closed Circuit TV"; "World Heavyweight Championship"; "Direct from Kinshasa, Zaire - Tuesday, September 24"; "15 rounds") promoting a fight between George Foreman ("World Heavyweight Champion") and Muhammad Ali ("Former World Heavyweight Champion"). The fight was originally to take place on September 24th but was moved to October 30th. This is the legendary fight where Ali used his "rope-a-dope" to win back the Championship from the much younger Foreman. It has been called "arguably the greatest sporting event of the 20th century".

Health isn't about how attractive you are or how fit your body might be. While fitness is certainly a contributor to overall wellbeing, the goal of balanced health is to feel your very best. And, when you feel good, you look good, no matter what the scale says.
Just like women's health, men's health changes as a man ages. There are more things to pay attention to, keep up with, and be on top of as hormones change and metabolism naturally slows down when you get to your 40s.
In fact, several factors play into men's health as they grow older. Consistent exercise and activity; a diet consisting of natural, nutrient-rich, whole foods; and vitamins and supplements that enrich the overall system are imperative to full-picture health. These three, in tandem, will not only improve your wellbeing, but they'll create that "look good, feel good" effect that we'd all like to achieve.
Weider Prime is one supplement that men greatly benefit from incorporating into their daily routines. The premium testosterone-support formula is made from KSM-66 (otherwise known as Ashwagandha), Chromax, and Bioperine. In clinical studies, KSM-66 has been shown to support healthy testosterone levels within the normal range, plus it improves oxygen consumption and cardiorespiratory endurance. Chromax helps improve lean muscle mass, and Bioperine increases absorption of nutraceuticals, like vitamin B6.
Overall, men who take Weider Prime (just $28.99 for a 30-day supply) see improved strength and recovery, reduced stress, easier maintenance of healthy cortisol, enhanced lean body mass, and increased energy and focus. To read more about the clinical studies that dive into the beneficial findings from men taking Weider Prime, click here.
One more thing that's essential to looking and feeling great in your 40s is having a plan. It's easy to get swamped with work commitments, family and home responsibilities, and extracurricular activities. But carving out time to get in some exercise, to grocery shop and meal prep with your partner or kids, and to schedule when to take your vitamins and supplements consistently so that you never miss a day is the best way to create routine and attain a healthy lifestyle.
You can even try adding your health commitments to your planner, so you have a tangible reminder to prioritize your wellbeing. Trust us, your future self will thank you.

Sphere Summit
#CatoDigital — 84th Anniversary Celebration of Repeal Day: The Lingering Effects of Alcohol Prohibition
Cato Digital
December 6, 2017 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM EST
Hayek Auditorium, Cato Institute
Featuring David Ozgo, Senior VP, Economic & Strategic Analysis, Distilled Spirits Council of the United States (@DOzgo); Peter Suderman, Features Editor, Reason (@petersuderman); moderated by Kat Murti, Senior Digital Outreach Manager, Cato Institute (@KatMurti).
On December 5, 1933, the Twenty‐First Amendment to the Constitution was ratified, supposedly ending our nation's failed experiment with alcohol prohibition.
Prohibition brought with it violence, organized crime, unsafe alcohol practices, and denial of basic civil liberties — and it almost killed the cocktail.
Yet, 84 years later, we continue to feel the lingering effects of prohibition, both in policy and in culture — from blue laws, dry counties, and state‐run liquor stores to the selection of alcoholic beverages available and the culture surrounding them.
On Wednesday, December 6, please join the Cato Institute for a celebration of the 84th anniversary of the repeal of alcohol prohibition and a discussion of the way in which Prohibition still impacts us today. Then, continue the conversation at a reception featuring beer, wine, and specialty Prohibition‐era cocktails.


With a large agricultural industry, Romania has an approximate total number of cattle of around 200,000 heads. Easy access to the Central Europe highway system and the Black Sea and Mediterranean Sea ensures an efficient way of trade on the international cattle markets.
Seradria exports cattle to European Union countries as well as countries across the Mediterranean region. Israel, Jordan and Northern African countries such as Libya, Egypt or Tunisia are some of the markets with good demand for cattle. We can serve clients from these regions easily through sea transport that usually takes around four to six days to destination.
We are able to provide clients with mixed vessels of livestock, i.e. with both sheep and cattle loaded on a single ship. In this way the client has the flexibility to choose the preferred quantities of each type of livestock.
All cattle we sell are of very good quality, sanitary veterinary treated and with no diseases present. They are fed and bred as per EU regulation in force therefore guaranteeing a best in class meat when slaughtered. Each cattle is individually stamped with electronic tags so that they can be easily identified if needed. Moreover, each of them has its own passport for an even better traceability to source.
Seradria mainly exports Romanian Simmental (Bălțată Românească) cattle because of its wide availability in Romania and the good meat/weight ratio when slaughtered. Blue Belgium and other cattle breeds are also present and available for export but in limited weights and quantities.

DressX / T-shirt / TSHIRT - Portrait of Joseph Roulin
TSHIRT - Portrait of Joseph Roulin
Vincent van Gogh (1853 – 1890)
Dutch post-impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh is one of the most expensive and influential figures in the history of art. Nevertheless, he had an absolutely tragic life. He didn't become a priest like he wanted, he was poor and officially mad – van Gogh spent time in psychiatric hospitals, cut his left ear after a confrontation with his friend Paul Gaugin, and committed suicide at 37 years. But all the way long he was an undeniable genius. He created about 2000 artworks – landscapes, still lifes, portraits, and self-portraits with his signature bold colors and impulsive brushwork.
Portrait of Joseph Roulin
Arles, 1889
Van Gogh loved to work on portraits, but for many reasons it was difficult for him to find models. Joseph Roulin was a regular postman in the Southern French town of Arles (where van Gogh moved in 1888) and one of the artist's closest friends, who agreed to model for his paintings. In this painting Roulin is depicted in his service uniform and set against the background of spinning flowers.


A green heart for Valentine's Day & for any day. Special edition of Czech table cut, metallic washed heart shaped glass beads in a brilliant peridot green on copper hoop earrings.
I hand made copper hoops, about 1" diameter, from coated pure copper wire that has been formed, hammered for shape, tumbled for strength and then are so easy to wear. Including the wire wrapped glass heart dangle, the total length is just about 1 3/4" measured from the top of the hoop.
I just love the iconic heart shape, and I found this special edition of Czech glass several years ago and have never found them again so perhaps it was an experiment? I'm not sure about the history of this glass, but I do know that these charming little glass hearts are each about approximately 1/2" tall and wide, and about 1/8" thick. The outer edges feature a copper colored coating, slightly rustic, which serves as a sweet "frame" for the transparent peridot green glass center of the heart.
A limited edition, available in 4 different colors (see other listings) including cobalt blue, celadon green and bright teal. Perfect for all heart lovers....who DON'T want pink or red....as shades of blues and greens are the palette here!
Packed into a small signature box, all ready to give! Priced just right so you can have original heart earrings--and can gift a pair too!
I'm in love with these earrings! They are beautiful and unique. Perfect size and fast shipping. Thank you!!!

Totally frustrated and over it all tonight. I'm sick of this ditsy blond person I have been, losing things, not thinking straight, dropping stuff.
The house is a total mess. The piles of stuff loom at me, the clutter keeps me on edge and I just don't ever seem to be able to get on top of things.
I hate that I'm on medication for my anxiety, but I find that it helps. When I accidentally miss a dose though, I get messy withdrawal symptoms. Even though I have had it today, I'm still all over the place. I hate being in this place. I hate being disorganised. I hate that I'm losing things and doing silly things.
Just overwhelmed by it all.


Motorola's New Wireless Firewall - InternetNews.
The Enterprise Mobility arm of Motorola today announced a new wireless firewall designed to protect retail clients from the kinds of WLAN attacks to which firewalls optimized for wired infrastructure may be blind.
Calling it "the industry's first wireless firewall," Motorola says its solution meets the requirements of the latest Data Security Standards enforced by the Payment Card Industry (PCI) by providing clean separation between wireless and wired networks. Used in conjunction with Motorola's AirDefense wireless intrusion prevention systems (WIPS), the firewall protects sensitive information, such as credit card data, by employing "unparalleled" traffic inspections at every network layer.
Motorola says its "enhanced stateful Wireless Firewall" is easy to deploy and integrates with leading enterprise authentication systems.
The TJX scandal and other high-profile retail data breeches attributed to lax WLAN security have made retailers more aware of risks—and the PCI requirements help ensure greater levels of security are enforced.
The fine for businesses recklessly transmitting customer credit card and personal information can be up to $300 per compromised record.
In other words, retailers can leverage the locationing engine built in to the Motorola firewall to enforce user identity-, role- and location-based security policies, which helps to keep access to sensitive consumer data under control. Retailers can have one policy for an employee who is accessing the network externally by connecting through mesh APs, for example, and a different security policy for employees inside headquarters using the internal network.
"This allows way more granularity, depending on role, location, time of day, etcetera," said Goulet.
Motorola's wireless LAN access points, switches, and mobile computing devices also support the IEEE 802.11i security standard, as mandated by the new PCI Data Security Standard (DSS) version 1.2.
Beta customers are currently testing the firewall in the field. Existing customers who have a service agreement will not have to pay to upgrade their software to include the firewall, and new customers will not see a bump in the cost of Motorola APs.

For more on Wi-Fi in the retail space, read "Retailers Need to Shore Up Defenses," "WLAN Security Service Aims to Boost PCI Compliance," and "RF Barrier Helps Deter Eavesdroppers."

America Movil 4Q Profit Up Sharply on Foreign Exchange Gains
Provided by Dow Jones
Feb 9, 2021 10:18 PM UTC
By Anthony Harrup
MEXICO CITY -- Mexican telecommunications company America Movil SAB reported an 80% jump in fourth-quarter net profit, helped by foreign exchange gains amid slightly lower revenue.
The company, controlled by billionaire Carlos Slim, made net profit of 37.3 billion Mexican pesos ($1.9 billion) in the October-December period, equivalent to 0.56 pesos a share or $0.54 an American depositary receipt.
Profit was up from 20.8 billion pesos in the year-earlier quarter. A 36.2 billion-peso foreign exchange gain thanks to a stronger Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar and the euro led to an overall financial gain of 15.4 billion pesos.
Revenue fell 3.1% to 255 billion pesos, largely as the result of Mexican peso appreciation against Latin American currencies, especially the Brazilian real. In constant currency terms, service revenues rose 2.2% from the fourth quarter of 2019 as mobile revenues more than offset a slight decline in fixed-line revenue.
America Movil added 6.8 million wireless subscribers in the quarter, ending 2020 with 287.5 million in Latin America, the U.S. and Europe. Subscriptions to fixed-line services were down by 213,000 from the previous quarter at 80.7 million as new broadband connections were offset by a drop in TV and fixed voice line subscriptions.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, a measure of operating cash flow, rose 1.3% to 82.9 billion pesos.

Recipe for Onion Beef / Bifes de cebolada - BFT .. for the love of Food ..
Whenever we go back in time and remember a dish that our ancestors taught us, we wish they had also taught us their 'correct' name. Alas! Sometimes we remember a dish by the name of a person or sometimes by something easy that we were told it was, as a kid. For Instance, a sweet steamed cake that I have on the blog is called the 'Jackfruit Bobo' (see here), who in the right mind would call something bobo. But so it was and so it is. And what's in a name? And from what we gather, whether you prefer to call what follows beef steaks or cebola de carne or bifes de cebolada or as we prefer to call it (yet again to make it simple for the kids :)) Onion Beef.
Black Pepper Corns – 1 to 1 ½ tbsp.
Worcestershire Sauce – 1 tsp.
Step 1: Wash the beef and drain well. Flatten lightly with a meat mallet. Apply salt and keep aside.
Step 2: Grind the ingredients for the marinade with the lime juice. Apply this ground paste to the meat and also the Worcestershire and soya sauces and keep the meat in the refrigerator covered with cling film for at least 3 hours or overnight.
Step 3: When ready to cook, take a flat non-stick pan. Arrange the meat slices flat out on the pan and then drizzle the oil on it. Then arrange the potatoes on top of the meat. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and then arrange the onions on top of the potatoes.
Step 4: Place the pan on low heat and place a flat steel lid on the onions, small enough, so that it fits in the pan and rests on the onions. Place some weight on the lid (I've used a small grinding stone). Cover the pan with something appropriate and continue cooking on low heat for 50 to 60 minutes or till the meat is done (depends on the cut of meat).
Step 5: Add the green chillies (optional) and continue cooking on low heat till most of the juices dry out.
Serve with eggs, French fries and bread.

In my last post, I wrote about the experience my husband and I had with a questionnaire designed to help people feel closer.
The questionnaire encourages people to share some of their thoughts and feelings in a way that becomes more intense as the questions progress.
Question 19 asks, "If you knew that in one year you would die suddenly, would you change anything about the way you are now living?"
This is a powerful question, because it requires us to examine our priorities and think about the value of how we spend our time. It asks what we really want from life.
My husband's answer was, "I would sell everything and travel the world with you."
The more I thought about it, the more I realized it was what I would want to do, too. A few nights later I said, "You don't have to die to travel the world. What if we just did it, sold everything and started traveling?"
It didn't take much discussion for us to agree that this didn't have to be a fantasy. We really could leave our jobs, sell the house, and hit the road.
And that is exactly what we are about to do.
Note: The name of the published study that includes the questionnaire is "The Experimental Generation of Interpersonal Closeness: A Procedure and Some Preliminary Findings". You can find it by clicking on the questionnaire link in the above article. If you just want to go straight to the questions, click on this link to a printable version.
Although some sources say it takes about 45 minutes for a couple to answer the questions, I recommend setting aside two hours when you will not be interrupted. That way you can move at a relaxed pace without any pressure to finish too quickly.
Wow! What a huge decision. Wishing you a safe and exciting journey. I do hope you post from time to time about what you're up to.
Thanks, Winifred! We will soon start a new blog to share our adventures.
Lori, I follow your blog, and I'm impressed with how well you have made living in a tiny space work. We won't be in an RV, but Internet access and other conveniences of modern life make this all very doable.
I'm looking forward to reading about your new adventures.
Thanks, Paul. We are on our way!
I'm a few years away, and my wife isn't sure about it, but I'm officially a Nordhavn Dreamer (nordhavn.com) - if the Byerlys can fit in an RV, I'm pretty sure I can fit in a boat!

Angus Botanical Prints
Donald Angus Collection of Botanical Prints Donald Angus' collection of botanical prints are housed at the Bishop Museum, Foster Gardens, the National Tropical Botanical Garden, and the University of Hawai'i at Manoa Hamilton Library. These exquisite illustrations were published in monographs and journals mainly in the 18th and 19th centuries. They reflect the enthusiasm of scientists, and the popularity of the exotic flora being introduced and cultivated in European botanical gardens. Many prints in the Angus collection are from Monandrian Plants of the Order Scitamineae by William Roscoe (1753-1831). Roscoe, a wealthy banker and amateur botanist, founded the Liverpool Botanic Garden in 1802.

Serie A Analysis

Serie A 2019/20: Lazio vs AC Milan – tactical analysis
Daniele Proch
At Stadio Olimpico in Rome, second-placed Lazio had to win against AC Milan to keep the pace of Serie A leaders Juventus, who were standing seven points above the biancocelesti before kick-off. The rossoneri, in turn, wanted to continue their streak of positive results since the restart (2W 1D) to secure the seventh position in the table, which guarantees access to the qualifying stage of the UEFA Europa League.
This tactical analysis breaks down the tactics of the match between Lazio and Milan. With the use of match footage and data, this analysis unpacks what happened at Stadio Olimpico in Milan's 3-0 win over Lazio.
While trying to remain undefeated at home in this Serie A season (10W 1D), Lazio could not count on suspended strikers Ciro Immobile, the league's top-scorer with 29 goals, and Felipe Caicedo, who has eight goals in this 2019/20 Serie A campaign. Manager Simone Inzaghi had to redesign his typical 3-5-2, pushing Luis Alberto on front and pairing him with Lazio's next best-scorer, Joaquin Correa, who has netted seven goals so far. The role of the holding midfielder was taken up by Lucas Leiva, who had not featured in a Serie A game since February due to injury. He was accompanied by right-sided midfielder and captain Marco Parolo and left-sided midfielder Sergej Milinković-Savić. The wings featured Manuel Lazzari on the right and Jony on the left. Thomas Strakosha was in goal, with Patric, Francesco Acerbi and Ștefan Radu forming the back three.
The only big absentee in Milan's 4-2-3-1 was Samu Castillejo, out with a shoulder injury. In front of goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, manager Stefano Pioli confirmed the backline of four that featured in the past games: from right to left, Andrea Conti, Alessio Romagnoli, Simon Kjær and Theo Hernández, who already tallied an impressive five goals as a left full-back this season. Franck Kessié and Ismaël Bennacer were the two midfielders sitting behind Giacomo Bonaventura, January signee Alexis Saelemaekers and Hakan Çalhanoğlu. Zlatan Ibrahimović returned in the starting lineup as a lone striker, forcing Milan's top-scorer Ante Rebić (eight goals in 17 games) to be sidelined.
Lazio: offensive and defensive struggles
Feeling the pressure from Juventus's win earlier in the day, Lazio needed a strong start. However, given the absence of Immobile and his natural replacement, Caicedo, Lazio's offensive plays turned out to lack unpredictability, physical strength and the desire to attack the space in the box during crossing opportunities. The picture below shows an example of one of Lazio's offensive plays in which neither of the two strikers, Luis Alberto and Correa, occupy the box.
Both Lazio's front two players, Luis Alberto and Correa, are outside of the box when the cross is delivered from the left side. On this occasion, midfielder Milinković-Savić is surrounded by three Milan defenders as the ball is delivered.
In this game, Luis Alberto, naturally an attacking midfielder who had to adapt to the role of the striker, tended to show underneath instead of providing depth higher up the pitch. His goal was to receive the ball at his feet in the pocket of space between Milan's defenders and midfielders and then turn and run at the opponent's defensive line, where his phenomenal passing abilities could make a difference. (He currently leads Serie A in assists with 14.)
Whether this helped Lazio in possession, it also made the play more predictable for the Milan defenders, as they rarely had to worry about the ball being hit over their head. As we can see from the picture below, Luis Alberto would drop deep to receive the pass and was often found on the same line as midfielders Parolo and Milinković-Savić. This behaviour caused Lazio to not be as direct and lethal as they usually have been this season when in possession.
Unlike Immobile, who often makes vertical runs, Luis Alberto dropped deep to receive the ball. This, however, took away unpredictability from Lazio's plays, as there was often only one striker, Correa, willing to make runs behind the Milan defence.
Whether we could expect Lazio to struggle offensively with adapting to the absence of their two top-scorers, the poor defensive performance by the biancocelesti came as a surprise in this game. Although before kick-off they had the second-best defence in the league with only 28 goals conceded, Lazio displayed flawed defensive organization on Saturday.
This pattern is visible in the 19.1 passive per defensive actions conceded by Lazio against Milan, which means that Milan completed an average of 19.1 passes during their build-ups before Lazio were able to win the ball back. This number is significantly higher than Milan's 9.1 PPDA in this game and the league's average of 10.1 PPDA per game, and it suggests that the Lazio players were disorganized in their pressing approach.
The picture below shows Lazio pushing high on Milan's players when they were building out from the back. Technically, Lazio were able to match Milan by going man for man in their pressing. In fact, however, the biancocelesti were often one step late during their pressing moments, and this caused their pressing to often be broken by Milan's passes.
The white arrows indicate Lazio's direction of pressing. In both instances, six Lazio players committed high up the pitch to pressing (the left image only captures three blue jerseys, but three more players were higher up the pitch in that pressing moment). On both occasions, Milan were able to play around Lazio's disharmonious press.
At the beginning of the second half, Lazio showed a more proactive approach and were able to bring more offensive threats to Milan's goal. This especially happened in transitional moments, when Lazio were able to isolate their front two strikers with Milan's two centre-backs, as shown in the picture below. On one of these occasions, Lazzari scored the temporary 2-1 goal, which was later disallowed by VAR due to offside.
Milan: clinical and lucky
Despite attempting fewer shots than Lazio, Milan was more accurate. Out of seven shots, the rossoneri had five on goal, which accounts for 71 percent of the strikes being aimed on target. By contrast, Lazio were only able to hit the target with 22 percent of their total shots (2/9). One of these Milan shots by Çalhanoğlu was deflected and fooled Lazio's goalkeeper Strakosha, giving Milan the 1-0 lead in the 23rd minute. Eleven minutes later, Ibrahimović converted a penalty kick despite Strakosha being able to get his hand on the ball.
Defensively, Milan sat in a compact block, which lowered after gaining the 1-0 lead. While trying to play out of the back, Milan kept a risk-averse approach. This is visible in the high number of clearances by the rossoneri, 19 specifically, much higher than Lazio's lone clearance in 90 minutes.
When under strong pressure, Milan used Ibrahimović as the target man that could win offensive aerial duels. When this happened, Ibrahimović, Bonaventura and one of Milan's wingers (either Saelemaekers or Çalhanoğlu) formed three-versus-three situations with Lazio's back three, as it occurred in the situation shown below.
Situations of numerical advantage in the offensive third occurred also due to Lazio's aforementioned defensive disorganization. Right before Rebic's 3-0 goal in the 59th minute, Milan's left-back Hernandez drove the ball forward with very favourable numbers, four versus three specifically (left picture), which forced Lazio's defensive line to make risky decisions. At the end of that play, Rebic was able to score his ninth goal of the season and put the game to bed (right picture).
After Milan's goal by Rebic, two offensive plays by Hernández almost brought the score to 4-0. The Milan left-back, however, was unable to finish accurately on goal. In the meantime, Inzaghi decided to give some rest to some of his key players, subbing out Milinković-Savić, Correa, Radu and Jony.
Lazio did little offensively while being disorganized and unfocused defensively. Inzaghi's side appeared tired, a factor that may have cost the biancocelesti the scudetto, since they are now seven points behind Serie A leader Juventus. Milan, in turn, were sharp and clinical. They currently have a streak of four positive results and have made a statement about Europa League ambitions, as they now sit seventh in the table, two points below fifth-placed Roma and four points ahead of eighth-placed Hellas Verona.
Inzaghi's team will try everything to give Juventus a hard run in the remaining eight games of the season. The head-to-head match will be played on July 20, which could reduce the gap between Juventus and Lazio to four points. Besides that, Lazio have to win all their games and hope for Juventus to slip, which is not impossible given that the bianconeri have to play Atalanta and Milan, two sides who are enjoying strong momentum in Serie A. For AC Milan, securing the Europe league spot will be beneficial with a view to attracting high-profile players for the 2020/2021 Serie A season.

A Pb/Zn Based Chemical Looping System for Hydrogen and Power Production With Carbon Capture

This paper describes an extension of a novel, carbon-burning, fluid phase chemical looping combustion system proposed previously. The system generates both power and H 2 with 'inherent' carbon capture using chemical looping combustion (CLC) to perform the main energy release from the fuel. A mixed Pb and Zn based oxygen carrier is used, and due to the thermodynamics of the carbothermic reduction of PbO and ZnO respectively, the system generates a flue gas which consists of a mixture of CO 2 and CO . By product H 2 is generated from this flue gas using the water-gas shift reaction (WGSR). By varying the proportion of Pb to Zn circulating in the chemical loop, the ratio of CO 2 to CO can be controlled, which in turn enables the ratio between the amount of H 2 produced to the amount of power generated to be adjusted. By this means, the power output from the system can be 'turned down' in periods of low electricity demand without requiring plant shutdown. To facilitate the adjustment of the Pb/Zn ratio, use is made of the two metal's mutual insolubility, as this means they form in to two liquid layers at the base of the reduction reactor. The amount of Pb and Zn rich liquid drawn from the two layers and subsequently circulated around the system is controlled thereby varying the Pb/Zn ratio. To drive the endothermic reduction of ZnO formed in the oxidiser, hot Zn vapour is 'blown' into the reducer where it condenses, releasing latent heat. The Zn vapour to produce this 'blast' of hot gas is generated in a flash vessel fed with hot liquid metal extracted from the oxidiser. A mass and energy balance has been conducted for a power system, operating on the Pb/Zn cycle. In the analysis, reactions are assumed to reach equilibrium and losses associated with turbomachinery are considered; however, pressure losses in equipment and pipework are assumed to be negligible. The analysis reveals that a power system with a second law efficiency of between 62% and 68% can be constructed with a peak turbine inlet temperature of only ca. 1850 K. The efficiency varies as the ratio between power and H 2 production varies, with the lower efficiency occurring at the maximum power output condition.

A combined cycle gas turbine generating power and hydrogen is proposed and evaluated. The cycle embodies chemical looping combustion (CLC) and uses a Na based oxygen carrier. In operation, a stoichiometric excess of liquid Na is injected directly into the combustion chamber of a gas turbine cycle, where it is burnt in compressed O 2 produced in an external air separation unit (ASU). The resulting combustion chamber exit stream consists of hot Na vapour, and this is expanded in a turbine. Liquid Na 2 O oxide is also generated in the combustion process, but this can be separated, readily, from the Na vapour and collects in a pool at the bottom of the reactor. To regenerate liquid Na from Na 2 O , and hence complete the chemical loop, a reduction reactor (the reducer) is fed with three streams: the hot Na 2 O from the oxidiser; the Na vapour (plus some entrained wetness) exiting a Na -turbine; and a stream of solid fuel, which is assumed to be pure carbon for simplicity. The sensible heat content of the liquid Na 2 O and latent and sensible heat of the Na vapour provide the heat necessary to drive the endothermic reduction reaction and ensure the reducer is externally adiabatic. The exit gas from the reducer consists of almost pure CO which can be used to generate by-product H 2 using the water-gas shift reaction. A mass and energy balance of the system is conducted assuming reactions reach equilibrium. The analysis allows for losses associated with turbomachinery; heat exchangers are assumed to operate with a finite approach temperature; however, pressure losses in equipment and pipework are assumed negligible — a reasonable assumption for this type of analysis that will still yield meaningful data. The analysis confirms that the combustion chamber exit temperature is limited by both first and second law considerations to a value suitable for a practical gas turbine. The analysis also shows that the overall efficiency of the cycle, under optimum conditions and taking into account the work necessary to drive the ASU, can exceed 75%.

UK energy heavyweight's SSE have confirmed they will be merging their domestic business with Npower to form a new company. The potential merger would see two of the big six energy suppliers come together to create a new independent energy company.
SSE have confirmed that there is no final decision and not binding agreement at this point, but that at this phase the talks are "continuing and well advanced".
So, if you're an existing customer with either providers what does this mean for you? well there's certainly no need for you to panic. If the merger goes ahead there will be no interruptions to your energy supply. If you're on a standard tariff with SSE or Npower however, switching your supplier could now save a typical user up to £340 per year.
"Too much political interference can have a negative influence on competition in a highly volatile market like the UK energy sector, Boards of the large energy companies have shareholders to answer to and they don't like uncertainty." – Joe Anderson, Black Sheep Utilities CEO.
When it comes to numbers SSE currently has a 11% share of the UK domestic gas supply market, ahead of Npower with 8%, according to Ofgem. For electricity, SSE has a 14% share and Npower 10%.
To put this in prospective British Gas, the UK's largest supplier, has a 33% share in the gas market and 22% of the share of electricity. This merger would see the yet to be named company in clear second place for the largest gas supplier but take the top spot when it comes to the electricity market.
The effect this will have on current market prices won't be clear until Friday when pricing updates are revealed. However, the consensus from leading experts are that if you are attached to these suppliers now is the perfect time to switch.

Biology of Ticks is the most comprehensive work on tick biology and tick-borne diseases. This second edition is a multi-authored work, featuring the research and analyses of renowned experts across the globe. Spanning two volumes, Biology of Ticks examines the systematics, biology, structure, ecological adaptations, evolution, genomics and the molecular processes that underpin the growth, development and survival of these important disease-transmitting parasites. Also discussed is the remarkable array of diseases transmitted (or caused) by ticks, as well as modern methods for their control. Biology of Ticks should serve as a modern reference for students, scientists, physicians, veterinarians and other specialists.
Volume 1 covers the biology of the tick and features chapters on tick systematics, tick life cycles, external and internal anatomy, and others dedicated to specific organ systems, specifically, the tick integument, mouthparts and digestive system, salivary glands, waste removal, salivary glands, respiratory system, circulatory system and hemolymph, fat body, the nervous and sensory systems and reproductive systems. Volume 2 includes chapters on the ecology of non-nidicolous and nidicolous ticks, genetics and genomics (including the genome of the Lyme disease vector Ixodes scapularis) and immunity, including host immune responses to tick feeding and tick-host interactions, as well as the tick's innate immune system that prevents and/or controls microbial infections. Six chapters cover in depth the many diseases caused by the major tick-borne pathogens, including tick-borne protozoa, viruses, rickettsiae of all types, other types of bacteria (e.g., the Lyme disease agent) and diseases related to tick paralytic agents and toxins. The remaining chapters are devoted to tick control using vaccines, acaricides, repellents, biocontrol, and, finally, techniques for breeding ticks in order to develop tick colonies for scientific study.

The Art of Writing is in the Rewriting
Writing is about getting down to it, about finding your way into the moment and sustaining the energy for as long as you can effectively. But the REAL writing is during revision.
Steven Gillis
Writing is Zen.
Writing isn't about inspiration or waiting for your muse to arrive and undress.
Writing is about getting down to it, about finding your way into the moment and sustaining the energy for as long as you can effectively and in the rhythm of your narrative.
(Rewriting Book One of a Book Series)
I used to teach creative writing at Eastern Michigan University. (I loved teaching and but for the demands on my time from my myriad of other projects I would still be teaching, but I digress.) My students were grad-level, talented kids, and so when I told them at the start of each semester that they would write a single story for the semester they looked at me quizzically. They were used to writing several stories in the course of a few months. Nope, I said, one story and you will rewrite your story over and over again.
Each semester I was met with skepticism. Re-write? More than once? But why? And how?

Make no mistake: The art of writing is in the rewriting. As Dorothy Parker said in, The Art of Fiction, "I would write a book or a short story, at least three times—once to understand it, the second time to improve the prose, and a third to compel it to say what it still must say. " Dorothy Parker is right. When we sit down to draft a story, we are putting our ideas on the page. Our draft is a blueprint. Within the course of that initial draft, occasional bits of brilliance may indeed find their way to the page. One can only hope and should hope. But to fully realize the vision we have for any piece of fiction, be it a novel or short story, we must live with it and work with it again and again.
The process one takes toward rewriting may vary. Some authors prefer to go 100 mph through their first draft, get everything down on the page and then go back and in earnest begin the real work. Others do detailed outlines, do detailed character sketches. My approach is to draft in spurts. I go forward a handful of pages, then I go back, forward, and back. I like to craft as I go, to polish. I also listen to my gut to be sure my narrative is on course. So, when I get to the end of a complete manuscript I have actually rewritten the work a few times. Then with the whole manuscript in hand, I go back and rewrite again. And again.
Sure, sure you say. But if we do that how will we ever know when we are done?
I can only tell you this: Believe me, when you master the process, you will know. Trust the process. Trust your instincts and your gut. Indeed, there is such a thing as diminishing returns and an artist must know when to stop. But in order to know when you must first apply yourself to the rewrite. Write and rewrite. You will discover while doing so things you did not imagine about your work when you first sat down to create your initial vision.
Truman Capote, in Conversations With Capote, said: "I'm all for the scissors. I believe more in the scissors than I do in the pencil." Bingo.
A writer, as an artist, has two tasks: to tell the story they wish to present and to present the story in the most beautifully written way they can. Sometimes the rewriting process entails getting the story just so. Other times, it is possible after a few drafts to have the structure dead on and set and then the focus is solely on the prose. Mostly, for me, it is a combination of the two. Ultimately then, for me, when the structure is as I want it—and with each project it's different—I will do one final, final pass concentrating most on the language, Regardless, of how a writer dives in, the key is to work the manuscript, again and again.
This brings us back to the concept of Zen. Writing well is a mindset. You have to believe in yourself and take yourself seriously. You have to get to a place of absolute conviction, a spiritual meditation when you are inside the work, become the work. ("Be the ball," as Bill Murray said in Caddyshack.) Writing is an act that requires stamina and courage and perseverance. Be fearless. Do not give in. Find that meditative state with your writing daily if you can. If you write for two hours and you have fifteen minutes of Zen, that's great. And the other 105 minutes are of value, too, for sure, as it's in the grind time that you become the writer you are. Honest. Be trusting and selfish with your art. Be bold. Be Zen. Write. And rewrite. For sure.
Every writer knows that the journey to publication is a long and hard road. Once you finish your first draft, it's time to start the arduous process of self-editing and revision. When you take this online writing workshop, you will learn methods of self-editing for fiction writers to ensure your writing is free of grammatical errors.

For a country that doesn't technically celebrate Christmas in the religious sense, we really do have a lot of Christmas trees displayed all over Tokyo.
Not that I'm complaining. I love Christmas trees. I've seen quite a few different Christmas trees this season (like this) but I think I have finally found my favorite!
The one that had me oohing and ahhing is this Christmas tree covered in snow. It's the one currently on display at KITTE Marunouchi, a new retail facility that opened this March.
It doesn't have any illumination lights or decorations on it, it's just a tree covered in snow but I think the simplicity of it all is what pulls me. I love it. This Christmas tree is one of the tallest indoor trees in Japan, standing a whopping 14.5 meters high inside the atrium. It was designed by Makoto Tanijiri, a Japanese architect, and will be on display here until December 25th.
KITTE is definitely one of my favorite retail facilities in Tokyo. The selection of stores is great and the outdoor roof has a fantastic view of Tokyo station, which was also renovated recently. It also has photos of the old Tokyo Central Post building displayed in various parts of the facility, which I also love. I'm glad they were able to preserve a part of the building exterior, which was originally designed by Tetsuro Yoshida and completed in 1933. Lots of history there.
Look what I found in Harajuku!!!
I've had a crush on these Tattly tattoos for a while now.
and so super duper cute!!!
PS: I found some you can buy in Japan domestically online here.
so you can just buy it directly on their website.
My BFF and I love gaudy earrings!
we decided to buy each other matching earrings!!
How high school-ish of us is it to find matching earrings?
Do adults still buy matching stuff with their BFFs?
We did and I love them!!!

What I Love the Most About Being a Museum Educator – Looking Back, Moving Forward in Museum Education!
Also posted on Medium, August 10, 2017.
As the school year approaches, I reflect on my experiences as a museum educator from previous museums in addition to the museum I am working with now. My career in museum education so far has been a rewarding field not only because I am surrounded my interesting material but I have the opportunity to translate that knowledge to audiences of wide age ranges. I have been recently asked by one of the parents I was talking with at the Maritime Explorium the following question: What do you love the most about being a museum educator?
When I told her my answer, I kept thinking about my experiences so far as a museum educator and thought I would share some of them here.
1. Interacting with kids: I love hearing from them about what they learned as well as what they can teach me. When I talk with them, I can see in their expressions how much they enjoy what they are hearing and doing. Also, I love that I have the opportunity to reach out to various age groups rather than only one age group.
2. Bringing their lessons to life: I enjoy being able to show them how the lessons they learned in the classroom can be applied outside the classroom. One of my favorite ways is being able to dress in costume to portray an individual from a time period to show how this person lived back then.
3. Leaving an impression: I also feel that if I hear kids say "I want to come back here again" or "I don't wanna go" I know that I have done a great job showing them how fun and informative visiting the museums can be.
To explain the examples of what I love about being a museum educator, I would start with my most recent experiences then share some details from my previous experiences.
At the Maritime Explorium, I assisted in teaching a couple of library workshops at the local library for young kids and for third grade students. Young kids learned about archeology by digging through small sandboxes finding treasure. The second workshop was learning about how bridges are built and how they are supported. I love seeing the look on the kids' faces when they learned something new and when they are enjoying the time they spent on these projects.
I also teach different activities during Maritime Explorium's public hours. One of the summer activities I taught was making balloons into various items and making balloon rockets. While I was teaching these activities, I also was showing one girl how to work on other projects including how to turn a light bulb on only using a battery. After teaching her the activities and projects through the constructivist approach, she decided to go back to the balloon station to make stress balls using balloons and rice from the rice boats. To thank me, she gave one of them to me as a thank you for helping her. This was one of my top moments that made me love what I do as a museum educator.
I look back on each of my experiences, and I think about how many students I have had a similar impact I have had at Maritime Explorium.
My love for being a museum educator began during my summer internship at Connecticut's Old State House in Hartford. I had the internship while I was at graduate school in Central Connecticut State University. I was able to get an internship at the Old State House after I interviewed Rebecca Tabor-Conover, Public Programs Coordinator, for my Introduction to Public History course.
On my first day of my internship, I assisted with a group of 140 elementary school students from kindergarten to second grade. One of the activities I worked with the students on was the I Spy program. In I Spy, the kids created and designed their own spy glass using paper towel tubes and designed them using whatever materials they could use such as markers, color construction paper, and stickers. Once they were completed, the kids walked around the Old State House and used their spy glasses to "spy" what they see in the museum.
I enjoyed seeing the look on their faces when they saw so many things they have never seen before and not expected to see in the museum. For instance, there was a recreated Museum of Curiosities inside one of the rooms on the second floor of the Old State House that featured a two-headed calf. Then they also pointed out various things they noticed including the tall original Lady Justice statue which used to sit on top of the Old State House.
While I was in graduate school, I became a museum teacher at the Stanley-Whitman House. I taught school programs between kindergarten and fifth grade, and these programs taught them about 18th century American history as well as Farmington history. What I enjoyed the most was seeing the students' faces, especially the kindergarten students, when they arrive at the museum as well as while they explored the house with me. As a museum teacher, I dressed in costume to portray an 18th century woman that will explain through object-based and inquiry-based methods.
I also joined Connecticut Landmarks' Hartford properties, Butler-McCook House and Isham-Terry House, to provide public tours and teach public programming. One of my favorite memories of working with kids was during First Night Hartford programs. The most recent one I had worked on included a craft activity in which kids made samurai helmets using gift wrapping paper and string to wear during the New Year's Eve parade in downtown Hartford. I also enjoyed seeing the look on their faces when they saw the real samurai helmets that are in the Butler-McCook House's collections; they thought it was so cool to see those helmets, and it is one of the unique features of the Butler-McCook House.
After I graduated from graduate school, I joined the Noah Webster House as a museum educator teaching students about West Hartford history, Noah Webster, and 18th century American history. Like while I was at the Stanley-Whitman House, I also dressed in costume to bring history to life. Depending on the program, I either simply dressed in costume and taught students through object based as well as inquiry-based methods, or I portrayed a woman who lived in West Hartford (or West Division as it was known back then) during the 18th century named Deborah Moore Kellogg who took control of her property after her husband died in a farming accident. When the program called for students to pretend to be individuals from 18th century West Division, I portrayed Deborah Moore Kellogg while we worked on chores such as cooking recipes in the kitchen and carding wool. I demonstrated cooking over a hearth, and the students love not only preparing the recipes but they also love watching me put the pots and pans over the fire to cook the recipes.
Once I moved on to the Long Island Museum, I occasionally dressed in costume to demonstrate life on 19th century Long Island. I wore a costume to dress as a schoolmarm, a teacher who taught lessons including reading, writing, and arithmetic in one-room schoolhouses. Every time I demonstrated lessons for the students, they were very excited about not only for writing the lessons on slate boards (small chalk boards) but also for 19th century games children back then played.
What do you enjoy the most about your career? Do you have favorite stories from your museums/organizations?

The nation's public health organizations stand in opposition to the Graham-Cassidy bill, the latest effort to overturn the Affordable Care Act, which may come to a vote in the Senate this week.
This is not a drill. The Senate aims to take another run at repealing the Affordable Care Act, and the clock is ticking.
While plans to roll back Medicaid have struggled to win Senate approval, policymakers will continue to push for similar reforms that will threaten public health.
Nonpartisan analysis from the Congressional Budget Office released today shows that 14 million Americans next year and 23 million by 2026 would lose health insurance under the American Health Care Act.
Since failing to garner votes to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act in March, proponents of the American Health Care Act have proposed revisions to help it succeed. The problem is they've made it even worse.
Independent analysis shows 14 million Americans will lose health insurance next year under a plan proposed to replace the Affordable Care Act.
