E-cigarette use plateaus among British smokers
An independent report, led by researchers at the National Addiction Centre at the IoPPN and commissioned by Public Health England (PHE), finds regular e-cigarette use among British adults has plateaued and just over a third of adult smokers have never tried one. Only 4% of quit attempts made through Stop Smoking Services use an e-cigarette, despite this being an effective approach.
The report is the first in a new set of three commissioned by PHE under the Government's Tobacco Control Plan for England. It looks specifically at use of e-cigarettes rather than health impacts, which will be the subject of a future report.
Regular e-cigarette use among adults remains largely confined to smokers and ex-smokers, with quitting smoking the main motivation for adult vapers. The report found 5-6% of adults use e-cigarettes and less than 1% of people who have never smoked.
Smoking rates among adults continue to fall with just under 15% of adults in England smoking, according to government figures. The report recommends that Stop Smoking Services should do more to encourage smokers that want to quit with the help of an e-cigarette.
The findings also show that while experimentation with e-cigarettes among young people has increased in recent years, regular use remains low. Only 1.7% of 11-18 year olds use e-cigarettes weekly or more, going from 0.4% in 11 year olds to 2.6% in 18 year olds, and the majority of those also smoke. Among young people who have never smoked only 0.2% use e-cigarettes regularly.
Professor Ann McNeill, Professor of Tobacco Addiction at the IoPPN says: 'We are encouraged that regular vaping among young people in Britain who have never smoked remains low. However, we need to stay vigilant and in particular closely monitor youth smoking. With just over a third of adult smokers having never tried an e-cigarette, there is a clear opportunity for more smokers to try a method which has helped many others to quit. Smokers should be advised to stop smoking as soon as possible and explore all available options for support, including e-cigarettes.'
Dr Leonie Brose, Senior Lecturer in Addictions at the IoPPN, says: 'While overall rates of vaping among adults have not risen, we have seen an increase in rates of vaping among ex-smokers. It is important to find out if vaping stops people from relapsing to smoking and to what extent this depends on how people vape – things like which device people use and how often they use it. Lower socio-economic groups are disproportionately affected by the harms from smoking, so knowing more about the effect of vaping on relapse could help tackle health inequalities.'
Mr Rob Calder, a researcher at the National Addiction Centre at the IoPPN , says: 'Our report suggests that combining e-cigarettes with face-to-face support should remain a recommended option available to all smokers. If you are one of the many thousands of people who have tried and struggled to quit smoking, you should consider using an e-cigarette ideally, alongside support from your local Stop Smoking Service.'
Dr Debbie Robson, Senior Post-Doctoral Researcher in Tobacco Addiction at the IoPPN says: 'Overall, England continues to take small steps towards ensuring vaping remains an accessible and appealing alternative to smoking, whilst at the same time limiting the uptake of vaping among young people who have never smoked. There remains no medically licensed e-cigarette in England, or anywhere else in the world. A licensed e-cigarette might attract more smokers to vaping and may also encourage Stop Smoking Services to have more conversations with smokers about the merits of switching to vaping.'

Danny Biggs is one of the nation's most successful F-Class shooters. A two-time (back to back) National Champion in F-TR Class, Danny also finished third in Open Class at the 2010 National Championships. Notably, Danny's X-count of 67Xs, the highest of all competitors, was 10 Xs higher than 2010 F-Open winner Derek Rogers.
Danny is a very savvy competitor, to say the least, and he brought some innovative gear with him to the Nationals. Along with his height-adjustable Sinclair wide-base bipod, Danny used a cleverly modified shooting pad and Edgewood rear sandbag. Danny's "donut-hole" mat featured a cut-out in the middle, allowing him to place his rear sandbag directly on the ground. This helps stabilize the bag no matter what the ground surface or slope. With the bag sitting directly on the ground, it's less likely to slide or rotate.
In addition, Danny's rear bag is raised up via a thick rubber base or "foot". The fat base, which appeared to be hard rubber, is secured via metal tabs that clamp on to the hard leather bottom of Danny's Edgewood rear bag. The Edgewood bag has a lip around the bottom that provides a natural attachment point for the metal tabs.
Danny uses an affordable shooting mat — the basic 67″ L x 26.75″ W MidwayUSA shooting pad that retails for $49.99. FYI, MidwayUSA's larger Pro Series Competition Shooting Mat is on sale right now for the same $49.99 (sale price through May 31, 2012). Sized 73.5″ long x 35.5″ wide, this deluxe, khaki-colored mat rolls up into an 8.5″ Diameter "sausage" for transport or storage. The mat has rubberized elbow and knee pads; the mat is about .535″ thick at the knee and elbow pads. By comparison, the standard MidwayUSA Shooting Mat is only 0.335″ thick on the pads. Both standard and Pro Series mats have corner grommets allowing the mat to be staked down in high winds. These mats both have a carry handle and a shoulder strap.

First Clip from Kelly Reichardt's 'Night Moves' with Jesse Eisenberg and Dakota Fanning
It's putting it mildly to say that the thoughtful, considered dramas of Kelly Reichardt aren't everyone's cup of tea. There's a small but extremely loyal audience for her three most notable films; Wendy and Lucy, Old Joy, and Meek's Cutoff, which were never designed to strike at the mainstream in any way. But her latest film Night Moves occupies a unique space for the director, as it deals with eco-terrorism, a premise we saw hit multiplexes recently in The East, and it features bankable stars Jesse Eisenberg, Dakota Fanning, and Peter Sarsgaard.
With the film recently debuting in Venice and heading off to Toronto, the first clip has been released to help generate a little buzz. Not a single word of dialogue is spoken in this footage, instead focusing on the three leads as they take in the deforested surroundings. The story, which bears quite resemblance to Edward Abbey's novel The Monkey Wrench Gang (there was even a lawsuit), centers on three eco-terrorists with plans of blowing up a dam.
Night Moves has yet to gain distribution, so who knows when it will turn up in theaters. [ThePlaylist]

Safety to Nome – Official Trailer | Echoboom Sports
EchoBoom Sports by The Orchard – Available February 25th Every February, four dozen athletes are invited to Alaska to undertake a journey which will challenge their bodies and minds, their wills to succeed, and their wills to live. The Iditarod Trail Invitational is the worlds longest, toughest and most remote ultra marathon, challenging competitors to journey 1000 miles across the Alaskan tundra on bike, foot, or ski. More people summit Everest in an afternoon than have made it from Anchorage to Nome on a bicycle. But this year twenty-six racers will attempt thefull 1000 miles of the Iditarod Trail. The fastest time recorded is 12 days. The longest is more than 30. It's the unknowns that bring these elite athletes here year after year in search of purpose and excitement, but it's those same unknowns that make this one of the most dangerous races on Earth. How willing are you to lose your toes, or your hands, or someone you love. That's the consequence of not being prepared on the Iditarod Trail.

US Quiz of the Month – January 2015
We present a female patient, 74 year-old, diagnosed in 2009 with acute myeloid leukemia secondary to a myelodysplastic syndrome, with leukemic evolution in 2014, despite treatment with lenalidomide and filgrastrim. The patient was placed under treatment with a test protocol POLO AML2, presenting later with febrile neutropenia. Imaging study revealed a pulmonary nodular lesion with 28 mm in the apical and posterior segment of the right upper lobe, with ground-glass opacity (Figure 1).
Figure 1. Computed tomography. Pulmonary nodular lesion, with 28mm, in the apical and posterior segment of the right upper lobe, with ground-glass opacity.
Given the absence of clinical improvement despite therapy instituted, with no cultural growth in septic screen, upper endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) was performed, revealing an ill-defined hypoechoic paraesophageal lesion, 30x22mm (Figure 2a), with a central annular image and no vascular flow (Figure 2b).
Figure 2 (a/b). Linear-array endoscopic ultrasound. Ill-defined hypoechoic paraesophageal lesion, 30x22mm (2a), with a central annular image and no vascular flow (2b).
After correction of thrombocytopenia with platelet transfusion, EUS-fine needle aspiration (EchoTip® 25G ProCoreTM, Cook Medical) was performed (2 passages). Cytology was consistent with inflammation, with no blast cells and microbiology was positive for Aspergillus fumigatus. There was clinical and imaging improvement after treatment with voriconazole and the patient is presently in the second round of quimiotherapy.
Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis is a serious complication, that occurs almost exclusively in immunosuppressed and especially myelosuppressed patients 1, although there have been rare patients without any grossly apparent immune defect. The frequency of invasive aspergillosis reflects disease states and treatments that result in prolonged neutropenia and immunosuppression. Invasive aspergillosis is estimated to occur in 10-20% of patients who are receiving intensive chemotherapy for leukemia. It may manifest as persistent fever and pulmonary infiltrates despite broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy. Radiographic and CT scan images may reveal characteristic patterns, including nodules, cavitary infiltrates, and focal infiltrates 2. Definitive diagnosis depends on the demonstration of the organism in tissue, through visualization of the characteristic fungi (Gomori methenamine silver stain or Calcofluor) or through positive culture results. Procedures that may be helpful for the diagnosis include bronchoscopy, transbronchial biopsy and open lung biopsy 3.
Even though EUS-fine needle aspiration of paraesophageal/mediastinal lesions has been used numerous times, to our knowledge, this is the first case report where a pulmonary lesion that is amenable to EUS is aspirated, allowing us to reach a definitive diagnosis. There are no previous reports of EUS imaging features of pulmonary aspergillosis. We believe that this central annular image in an ill-defined hypoechoic paraesophageal lesion may be a characteristic feature.

School sports days are back! More than 1,000 events planned to take place this month
Schools across the country are coming together to celebrate a week of fun, play and sport.
Following a time of isolation and a year in which sports days were forced to take place at home, children's charity the Youth Sport Trust and the Together campaign have teamed up this summer to help schools and children recover. Through a series of themed 'Together Again' games, 1,140 schools have committed to hold sports days between 19 and 25 June.
In 2020, children had their worlds turned upside down. A recent study has shown that parents recognised the importance of physical education (PE) and school sport in helping support children's wellbeing and 81% believe that cuts to PE, sport and break time in schools are likely to have had a negative impact. The study was commissioned by children's charity the Youth Sport Trust and supported by the Gregson Family Foundation, conducted by YouGov. It highlights the need for school sport and PE, now more than ever.
Using free resources that contain ideas on how to plan, participate and promote inclusive school sports days, the week promises to empower young people to have fun playing sport and access high quality PE.
Here is how schools, young people, and organisations can embrace a return of school sports days and enjoy being Together Again:
After a year of connectivity online, supporters including Kimberly Wyatt and Leah Boleto are asking young people to Pause to Play on 21 June. In 2020, clogs, flip flops and sandals helped young people to creatively access at home PE and school sport through the likes of horizontal climbing. This year, ambassadors for children's wellbeing want to encourage young people and schools to connect in person again, switch off devices and pause lessons for some play. Kimberly has developed a unique TikTok dance routine for the week for young people to have a go at. It is hoped that sports day activities will be led by young people themselves.
Children at Stroud High School in Gloucestershire will be trying a range of alternative as well as traditional school sports week activities including getting moving under a disco dome, code breaking sports, and team building activities.
June Fletcher, PE teacher at Stroud High School, said of the week:
"The physical and mental benefits that sport has brought throughout this difficult time in the world is phenomenal. Its why Physical Education is prioritised at our school as an essential part of our broad and balanced curriculum and extensive extra-curricular programmes.
"On the Youth Sport Trust's National School Sport Week, we want to shine a spotlight on PE and school sport and ensure our pupils have an amazing experience on this important week. Wellbeing is at the centre of that nurturing after these strange times and we hope National School Sport Week will inspire young people."
National Governing Bodies of Sport and organisations
Last year The FA and Lionesses encouraged more young people to get into football with Chloe Kelly setting a football target practice challenge. This year, the Youth Sport Trust is holding a football festival day with the support of The FA to accelerate equal access to the game in schools. Sport and Recreation Alliance will be holding its own sports day to help employees reconnect following months of working from home.

Even though FiftyThree's Pencil stylus can't completely replace a proper digital pen and tablet, it's at least getting better over time. For instance, the arrival of iOS 8 will finally give it pressure sensitivity -- bad news is, you'd have to wait for the mobile OS before you can take advantage of the new feature. Once you get the update for Apple's latest platform, you'd have greater control over your lines: you can draw thin, mechanical pencil-like sketches by using only the very tip of the device, or shade objects using its thicker side. Depending on how much you've been using Pencil, these lines might not be as precise as anything you draw using a Wacom tablet. But you might be able to get pretty close, so long as you maneuver the stylus with expertise. It's a shame you'd have to wait till fall to try it out, but note that a new iOS 8 beta's rumored to come out soon. We don't know whether this beta update will enable Pencil's new capability, but keep an eye out if you absolutely can't wait.

'Mortal Engines' Extended Look Video: How To Destroy London On Wheels
By eelyajekiM | @ | Thursday, November 8th, 2018 at 9:00 pm
Director Christian Rivers' The Mortal Engines hits theaters next month. The film adaptation of Phillip Reeve's young adult novel of the same name takes place in a dystopian future where civilization has been reduced to cities and metropolises living on large motor vehicles.
While the genre may be a bore, the plot for the film does give way for some big screen entertainment. And a new featurette takes a look how all of this came to be. Check it out, below.
While it is only a minute and a half long, this featurette offers our best look at the film so far. We have a better idea of how mankind was reduced to living on moving cities. Or cities above the sea. Or cities in the sky. However, the biggest threat of them all comes from the cities on wheels. And it appears that London will be making the moves to be the dominant power of the planet by claiming land, sea, and sky.
But it looks like there is a rebellion that will put a stop to them. While I am not too big on these YA adaptations, this looks genuinely good. But then there is the fact that this is yet, another YA adaptation set in a dystopian future. Very few have been able to see themselves to the end of the series. So let's just hope the film is good enough to make it to the end.
Here's the official plot synopsis:
Hundreds of years after civilization was destroyed by a cataclysmic event, a mysterious young woman, Hester Shaw (Hera Hilmar), emerges as the only one who can stop London — now a giant, predator city on wheels — from devouring everything in its path. Feral, and fiercely driven by the memory of her mother, Hester joins forces with Tom Natsworthy (Robert Sheehan), an outcast from London, along with Anna Fang (Jihae), a dangerous outlaw with a bounty on her head.
Mortal Engines also stars Hugo Weaving, Ronan Raftery, Leila George, Patrick Malahide and Stephen Lang.
Directed by Rivers, who uses a script written by Peter Jackson, Fran Walsh, and Philippa Boyens, Mortal Engines opens in theaters on December 14, 2018.

Read What's His Valid Reason Behind Picking Dairy Farming Over His Monotonous Coding Job
As human beings, if we are to keep on progressing as species we need to grow intelligently and step out of our comfort zone. We need to undertake challenging tasks and take a shot at it instead of crouching in the fear of failure. The silver lining is that even if we fail, we would at least know what can possibly work and what cannot.
The story of 43-year-old Shankar Kotian is no different in the sense that he too failed multiple times in the beginning. But gradually, he made his way to the less sought-after profession which reaps him significant benefits.
Desperate for something new
Born in Moodbidri, Karnataka, Shankar graduated in computer science from National Institute of Technology, Surathkal in 1996. Being a bright student and an ace programmer, he was soon recruited in Infosys as a software engineer. During his tenure at Infosys, he spent most of his time working abroad in various countries. But on weekends, he would make some time to visit the nearby farms and observe farming and rearing of animals.
Gradually, saturation started creeping into Shankar's professional life. Although he was heading a team of 10 members and was receiving a hefty paycheck, he wasn't enjoying his work anymore due to lack of challenges. So, in 2012, he decided to call it quits at Infosys and venture into the business of dairy farming.
In the eight acres of barren land he had bought in 2011 near a water source in Moodu-Konaje village, he started off by building a house as his office. Once the house was built, he bought organic manure from nearby farmers and grew grass on his land. He then bought his first five cows and spent almost three years learning, as he had no prior agricultural experience.
His profiteering ways
With his farm land located on a slope, Shankar decided to make best use of the elevation. He established the dairy on top of the slope, which helped him supply slurry and waste water collected from the dairy to the farmland located on the lower portion of the slope through gravitational force.
To meet the requirement of his cows, he has been growing Napier grass plantation on the lower portion of the slope. At the end of the slope, he has also constructed a water pond for the purpose of rainwater harvesting.
To cut down on fuel costs, Shankar has installed a gobar gas plant to reap the benefits of the dung his cows produce. Being attached to the dairy, the plant meets the kitchen fuel requirements of his family and labour quarters as well. Apart from using slurry for his farm from the biogas plant, he sells the excess slurry for areca nut plantation owners.
Till date, he has sold around three lakh litres of slurry. The reason this method has been so successful is because it is less labour-intensive for buyers and the slurry is more nutrient than handling solid farm yard manure.
Growing slowly but surely
Today, Shankar owns 40 cows in his dairy farm and supplies 180 litres of milk everyday to Karnataka Co-operative Milk Producer's Federation Ltd (KMF), Nandini. He has also planted 1,800 rubber trees and 1,000 areca nut plants in addition to more than 150 plants. They are planted in the periphery and in the middle of the farm to provide more greenery and ensure moisture to his field, which now measures 25 acres.
"There are challenges but you always have scope to learn and enjoy the learning process. Moreover, apart from the turnover you earn health and you leave the world better than you found it for future generations, isn't it?" he says when asked about the arduous process of starting a dairy farming business from scratch.
Shankar could have enjoyed his plush and secured job at Infosys. But instead, he decided to challenge his own limits and took to dairy farming, that too when none of his family members were anywhere close to the business of farming.
He has demonstrated that nothing in this world is impossible to achieve if one sets his or her mind to it. Yes, it might take some time to learn and implement something entirely new, but it would definitely be worth the time, dedication and effort.

An Indian Army major has been booked for allegedly subjecting his wife to domestic abuse and demanding dowry, the police said on Thursday. A case has been registered with Palam police station.
In her complaint, the major's wife alleged that he used to taunt and harass her on trivial issues.
"A case has been registered and the matter is being probed," Deputy Commissioner of Police (southwest) Devender Arya said. The complainant alleged that on August 19, 2017, the major asked her to get at least Rs 25 lakh from her parents, failing which he would leave her.
She alleged that she was beaten up when she refused to comply and her in-laws even advised her to commit suicide or get a divorce. The woman alleged in her complaint that the major even forced her to demand her share in her father's property.
She said in her complaint that her in-laws used to regularly threaten her over the phone between August and September 2017 that they will kill her family members if she did not divorce the major.
The victim has been living with her parents in southwest Delhi's Manglapuri village. She had met the major, who was posted in Jaipur, when she went there on an official trip in October 2016. Eventually, they fell in love and got married last year despite the objections of their families.

The Comet Is Coming: Trust in the Life Force of the Deep Mystery review – hardcore jazz
(Impulse)

The Comet Is Coming. Photograph: Fabrice Bourgelle
Like many determined futurists, London trio the Comet Is Coming have a foot firmly in the past. Their 2016 debut, Mercury-nominated Channel the Spirits, paid homage to the "cosmic jazz" of Sun Ra and John and Alice Coltrane, an influence that persists, principally through the lyrical sax of Shabaka Hutchings, the reigning titan of British jazz.
Now signed to Impulse, the label that issued many of their heroes, the group take a more startling turn here, with much of the album shaped by studio post-production, where drummer Max Hallett and synth player Dan Leavers have created an ever-morphing mix of textures and beats. The influences are often 70s prog – King Crimson, Mahavishnu Orchestra – with dreamy introductions mutating into fractured rhythms and wonky synthesisers. Timewave Zero and Super Zodiac are clattering and confrontational, Birth of Creation features Hutchings on elegant bass clarinet over a funk beat. Blood of the Past is an ambitious fusion of heavy metal guitar, soaring Coltrane sax and a fierce poem from Kate Tempest proclaiming: "There's nothing but progress to eat".
This is hardcore music for a generation weaned on rave and grime, jazz's cutting edge. The comet isn't coming, it's arrived.
Listen to Summon the Fire by the Comet Is Coming.

Consortium Receives $8M to Investigate Molecular Roots of Extreme Aggression
Sep 12, 2013 | staff reporter
NEW YORK (GenomeWeb News) – The European Union has approved a project aimed at determining the causes of extreme aggressive behavior and is providing €6 million ($8 million) to the effort.
Called Aggressotype, the project seeks to find the molecular roots of extreme aggression in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and other "conduct disorders," as well as in the general population. The total cost of the project is about €8.1 million, according to the grant application. The EU funding was awarded as part of the Seventh Framework Programme.
In the application, the researchers said that they will use existing data sets and acquire new data to build a "knowledge chain from molecule to behavior, investigating known and novel genes, gene networks, and their epigenetic interactions, and mapping their mode of action from the molecular via the cellular to the brain-circuit level."
The work, they added, is expected to result in new algorithms that may be useful in predicting aggressive behavior. The algorithms will be validated in existing longitudinal studies in children. Their predictive value for adults will also be tested.
Additionally, Aggressotype will test "non-pharmacological biofeedback for personalized treatment and prevention of overt aggression." New pharmacological compounds for treating aggression will be identified through zebrafish models.
Participating institutions and companies in the project include the University of Leicester, UK; Maastricht University, Netherlands; University of Bergen, Norway; University of Dundee, UK; University of Zurich; University of Ulm, Germany; King's College London; Central Institute of Mental Health, Germany; Decode Genetics; University Medical Center Groningen, Netherlands; Madrid Health Service; Genoway; Genalice; Vall d'Hebron University Hospital Foundation - Research Institute, Spain; University Hospital of Würzburg, Germany; Consortium Institute of Biomedical Research August Pi i Sunyer, Spain; Research Foundation of the State University of New York; Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital, Italy, View Point; University of Tartu, Estonia; Concentris Research Management; and University of Barcelona, Spain.
The Catholic University Foundation in the Netherlands is coordinating the project.
Dutch software firm Genalice said today that it was awarded €200,000 for work it will carry out as part of the project. The biomedical big data firm will apply its unbiased correlation engine, Genalice Link, to the large, complex datasets to be used as part of Aggressotype.
In a statement, Genalice CTO Hans Karten said, "These data sources are very diverse in nature and consist of, for example, behavioral diagnosis, clinical data … and genetic information. In collaboration with consortium partners we will apply our engine to the data to determine correlations across different sources.
"Furthermore, we will build a relational database that describes all identified correlations that can be used with novel data of a particular source to predict markers in a different source," he said.

Le Barkenhoff (bas allemand pour Birkenhof) est une ancienne ferme caractéristique de la région située à Worpswede, en Basse-Saxe (Allemagne).

Elle est connue pour avoir été le centre de la communauté d'artistes de Worpswede. Le bâtiment abrite aujourd'hui le musée Heinrich Vogeler.

Description
La Barkenhoff est acquise en 1894 par l'artiste Heinrich Vogeler et transformée en quelques années en un impressionnant bâtiment de style Art nouveau surmonté d'un remarquable pignon en forme de cloche. Un poème de Rainer Maria Rilke est transcrit au-dessus du portail du côté est : . La ferme devient bientôt le cœur de la « communauté d'artistes de Worpswede ». Après la Première Guerre mondiale, Barkenhoff devient la « Communauté et école de travail de Barkenhoff » () en 1919.

Parmi les nombreux visiteurs du Barkenhoff figurent Sonja Marchlewska, deuxième épouse de Heinrich Vogeler depuis 1926, fille du marxiste polonais Julian Marchlewski, ami et collègue de Rosa Luxemburg et confident de Lénine. Marchlewski a également été recteur de l'Université communiste des minorités nationales de l'Ouest à Moscou et fondateur du Secours rouge international. Il persuade Vogeler de transférer le Barkenhoff au Secours rouge. À partir de 1923, le Barkenhoff est converti en foyer pour enfants de la toute nouvelle Rote Hilfe Deutschlands (RHD) avant que le foyer ne ferme en 1932.

En 1932, Barkenhoff est vendu à l'architecte de jardin et anthroposophe Max Karl Schwarz (1895–1963), qui est arrivé à Worpswede par l'intermédiaire de  Leberecht Migge, un partisan de la Lebensreform (littéralement « réforme de vie », ou retour à la nature). Il y fonde l'école d'horticulture de Worpswede avec l'ingénieur Martin Schmidt (1892-1964), où le travail biodynamique a été enseigné et étudié avec des enseignants à vocation anthroposophique entre 1932 et 1936. Schwarz est considéré comme un pionnier de l'agriculture biodynamique et de l'horticulture, du compostage et un développeur et promoteur de l'idée du Gärtnerhof. En 1954, Schwarz a conçu le parc paysager du Goetheanum à Dornach.

Au cours des années suivantes, la ferme tombe en décrépitude et est cédée au secteur public en 1981. En 2003/2004, la ferme est entièrement rénovée. Depuis, le bâtiment sert de musée et d'espace d'expositions. Jusqu'à la fin de 2009, les constructions attenantes ont servi de studios aux boursiers de la Fondation Barkenhoff.

Is the new Lebanon really open for business?
"Kullun haramiyyeh" ("they're all thieves") is the comment you are most likely to hear on the streets of Beirut if you ask about Lebanese politicians. Such cynicism is understandable: the country has just appointed its 13th head of state, Michel Aoun, after two-and-a-half years without a president.


Though the emphasis at WBC is on tournaments, our space dedicated to Open Gaming continues to expand, along with our Game Library. In 2011, the 13,000 square foot Lancaster Showroom dinner theater will be dedicated 100% to Open Gaming and the Games Library for the entire week of WBC. The Auction and Auction Store will move to the Lampeter Exhibit Hall to free the Showroom for Open Gaming Monday through Sunday. A whiteboard will be located in the Open Gaming Area to help coordinate open gaming activities on-site and an on-line Opponents Wanted page will be available in the weeks preceding the convention. NOTE: Admission is required for anyone participating in Open Gaming.
So as not to lose track of time, a constantly updated rotating schedule announcing the minutes remaining to the next event starts elsewhere in the hotel will be projected from the stage. Each evening at 11pm, a pictorial review of past WBCs will be shown, set to music. A different year's memories will be displayed each night, courtesy of photographer Debbie Gutermuth, whose prints of WBC 2010 will be displayed and freely available to all who care to reminisce.
Attendees in the Open Gaming Area will enjoy free use of the expanded BPA Game Library for use Monday through Saturday. The library signed out more than 1,000 games in 2010. The library is made possible through the generosity of leading game publishers and sponsored by Queen Games, Rio Grande Games, and Alliance Game Distributors.

Abstract. To exploit the possibilities of parallel computers, we designed a large-scale bidimensional atmospheric advection model named Pangolin. As the basis for a future chemistry-transport model, a finite-volume approach for advection was chosen to ensure mass preservation and to ease parallelization. To overcome the pole restriction on time steps for a regular latitude–longitude grid, Pangolin uses a quasi-area-preserving reduced latitude–longitude grid. The features of the regular grid are exploited to reduce the memory footprint and enable effective parallel performances. In addition, a custom domain decomposition algorithm is presented. To assess the validity of the advection scheme, its results are compared with state-of-the-art models on algebraic test cases. Finally, parallel performances are shown in terms of strong scaling and confirm the efficient scalability up to a few hundred cores.

Everything we do, everything we say should flow out of our DNA. These five values shape our identity and our calling in Oak Park and around the world.
What God accomplished in Christ is where we start. But what does it mean to be rooted in the gospel? Or draw life from the gospel?
It means to confront some bad news about the world and about yourself. Things aren't the way they're supposed to be. And we all know it.
But this bad news isn't the only news. Thankfully. Rooting your life in the gospel means embracing some fantastic news: all that God's done for the world through his Son, Jesus Christ. The glorious news we call the gospel.
And you must draw life from it by living in dependence upon it. By living a life of repentance, faith, and hope — rooted in the gospel.
We cannot survive, much less thrive, without the gospel.
In our man-centered world God is not central. He's peripheral. Everything orbits around us, not him. Like the sun, we're the center. As for God, he's Neptune or Pluto.
Yet, this man-centered world is an illusion. God is central. He's the center. And we must say so with our lives. To live in a way that declares God as central, not ourselves.
By making much of God all the time. Not just on Sunday, but everyday. Not just at church, but everywhere. And by acknowledging Jesus Christ as preeminent in everything. No matter what the topic or task, seeing Jesus as supreme.
But not in our own strength. Only by relying upon the Holy Spirit all the time — at the grocery store and the gym, at the bank and in the bedroom — continually being dependent upon him.
When you see how massive and magnificent God is, everything in your life aligns with him. That's God-centeredness.
The church has a revolutionary task. To make disciples. To help others become followers of Jesus. "Go therefore and make disciples," Jesus says.
But how easily we're distracted by a thousand other things! And how quickly we lose focus on the task at hand! If we're to maintain focus on discipleship, we must prioritize the person of Jesus. Discipleship is relationship — not following an idea, but a person.
Discipleship means prioritizing the Bible, where we find all that Jesus taught, and responding faithfully to it. We can't do this alone. Discipleship is individual, but not individualistic. We learn to follow Jesus in community, in relationship with one another, where we're nurtured and challenged by one another.
And it's for each and everyone of us. Every follower of Jesus must be a disciple who makes disciples.
Discipleship means being on the field and in the game. There are no bench-warmers. You're in the starting lineup, engaged in ministry to others and mission to the world. That's being discipleship-focused.
The gospel's not a private possession. Nor is God. If the gospel is real to you, and if God is real in your life, then you will find God and the gospel overflowing the bounds of your life into your community.
As a follower of Christ, your community matters. For you are the salt of the earth. You are the light of the world. So too, as a church, our community matters.
Oak Park must matter. Salt and light in Oak Park, for Oak Park.
Followers of Christ maintain a faithful presence within their communities. They seek the welfare of the city where God has placed them. There they settle, invest, serve, pray, and love.
They partner with others. They proclaim the whole gospel — the beauty, truth, and goodness of the gospel.
Faithfully following Jesus, a countercultural community for the common good. This is what it means to engage the community.
The problem with mindsets is they can easily slip.
As a church, we can slip from being mission-minded to maintenance-minded in no time. And if that happens, the mission of the church becomes the maintenance of the activities of the church.
A mindset of maintenance means death to a church, as it does to a Christian. When we make decisions, lead ministries, use money, or orient our prayers in order to maintain the status quo, our church's days are numbered.
Staying mission-minded is not only necessary; it's absolutely vital.
And this is what it means to be mission-minded – to concentrate every energy on the one great end, the one great goal, before us: the Great Commission. Entrusting ourselves for the eternal good of others and the greater glory of God.
Let's pray to the God of the harvest. After all, it is his mission, and he will see it accomplished.
We recite creeds from time to time to voice our solidarity with the Church worldwide.
Our Articles of Faith guide the theology and teaching position of our church.

I came to a decision this week about my Project 365 theme of "Words." I had such grand plans with this theme – I envisioned myself seeking out profound commentary in street signs and found phrases. The reality was more along the lines of this: I'd come home from work with little-to-no light left, and quickly snap a shot of anything I could find around the house that had words on it.
Maybe this would have gotten better in the summer when the light was more plentiful, and I ventured out of the house and the office more, but I've already lost too much enthusiasm to give it a chance.
So. Starting this week, I'm going to keep my eye out for intriguing words, but if I see something else that I find more appealing, I'm going to shoot that instead. Seven days in, and I'm already much happier.
It's a roundup of the photos I shot for Project 365 (the unofficial, when-I-feel-like-it theme for 2017 is "words"), plus some snapshots I posted on Instagram during the previous week.
365 📷: 2017 113/365 – Lazy Sunday knitting, and the late afternoon sunlight creeps across the bed.
365 📷: 2017 115//365 – I want a background for my desktop at work that's not so busy that it fights with the icons, but is not as boring as a solid color. So I took this very out-of-focus picture of my current knitting project, and tweaked the colors a little bit in lightroom. I think this will do nicely.
Nice! Interesting! Love the yoke!
Your sweater is beautiful. You do such nice work.

Takum-based businessman Usman Mayo who was abducted three weeks ago has regained his freedom.
Family of the businessman had earlier paid N100 million ransom for his release but the abductors refused to release him and demanded for an additional N100 million.
It was gathered that the businessman had stopped his family from paying any amount for his release.
Daily Trust gathered that the family paid the abductors another N5million before releasing him on Tuesday.
Our correspondent also learnt that Usman Mayo who was said to be seriously ill, was rushed to general hospital Takum immediately after his release.
Police public relation officer (PPRO), Taraba police command DSP David Misal said command is yet to be informed of the incident.


Norwegian oil giant Equinor is doing something few companies have dared to do as the U.K. prepares to leave the European Union. It's investing in Britain.
The state-backed energy company, formerly known as Statoil, has an ambitious plan for investments in the oil-rich North Sea, and, at a time when much of the U.K. economy is on ice, Equinor is hiring across Britain to support that plan. "How many companies ahead of March 29 are saying they're recruiting and doing more in the U. K.?" said Al Cook, Equinor's executive vice president for global strategy and business development, referring to Britain's planned EU departure date.
While a chunk of Equinor's current investment was committed well before Brexit became a reality in 2016, the company is hardly an outlier within its industry. In the past year, BP PLC, Total SA and Shell PLC have all approved long-term projects off the U.K. coast. The country's once-stagnant oil industry has proved itself resilient to Brexit risk. Companies are expected to spend around $4 billion to develop the new projects announced so far this year, according to industry trade group Oil & Gas U.K.
Falling costs and a rash of asset sales following the oil-price crash in 2014 are contributing to a mini-renaissance in the U.K.'s oil industry. Rising crude prices for much of this year boosted activity across the sector, and many companies see projects in the U.K. as competitive despite the more recent market selloff.
Across the North Sea region, operating costs have roughly halved while production has increased by around 20% since 2014, according to Oil & Gas U.K. The upswing has included new players, many of whom view the export-oriented dollar-denominated sector as relatively immune to Brexit. "I don't think Brexit risk is as significant for the oil and gas sector as it is for others," said Julian Regan-Mears, director of corporate affairs at Neptune Energy, a private-equity-backed oil-and-gas company that counts the North Sea as a core region.
The relatively relaxed attitude toward Brexit stems largely from the industry's global nature. Oil and gas companies that operate in dollars are insulated from fluctuations in the pound that have been painful for other industries; and the price of oil is determined by global supply and demand and geopolitics, rather than the health of the U.K. economy.
"[Brexit is] not something we at Serica have even thought about," said Antony Craven Walker, executive chairman at Serica Energy SQZ -0.91% PLC. The U.K.-based oil-and-gas company has transformed its position in the North Sea this year with acquisitions from BP, Total, BHP Group and Marubeni Corp. and has said it will hunt for more deals.
Nevertheless, energy companies are willing to invest in the North Sea while other sectors are holding off due to Brexit. Economic growth has slowed since the U.K.'s Brexit vote in 2016, as uncertainty over the outcome has discouraged many businesses from making big investments. The FTSE 250 index, made up of domestically oriented U.K. companies, has fallen around 15% this year.
By contrast, shares in British-Dutch energy company Shell and U.K.-based BP have dropped only about 1% and 5%, respectively. An industry survey conducted by Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce and released in November put business confidence among oil and gas contractors operating in British waters at its highest level since 2013.
This year, companies have approved 12 big new developments in U.K. waters, up from two in 2017, according to Oil & Gas U.K., and there have been some smaller bolt-on projects as well. Shell alone has announced it will go ahead with seven developments—the company's first new investments in exploration and production in the U.K. since 2011.
Next year, Equinor expects to start up the giant Mariner field, a roughly $5.6 billion project northeast of Scotland that will create 700 long-term jobs over its lifetime. The company is planning to drill a record number of exploration wells in the U.K. over the coming year.
It is also considering new offshore wind projects and snapping up Chevron Corp.'s stake in one of the largest undeveloped fields on the U.K. Continental Shelf. Equinor is hoping to replicate the success it scored just across the maritime border with Norway, where the company helped rejuvenate an oil region that many had dismissed as overpriced and tapped out. "We're approaching the North Sea like a new basin," Mr. Cook said.
