Mobility and safety, the main concerns of female night workers
By Sara Ortiz Escalante. Urban planner and sociologist. Col•lectiu Punt 6
Mobility and safety are the two issues that most affect the everyday life of women who work in the metropolitan area at night, especially those that use public transport or go on foot, according to a participative study conducted by Col·lectiu Punt 6.

Historically, urban planning has followed an androcentric city model that has excluded women from public spaces, which have been designed as predominantly male spaces. One only needs to observe how in Catalan a home públic (public man) is a famous man, while a dona pública (public woman) is a prostitute to see how these different meanings translate into the physical configuration of spaces.
The problem becomes more evident when night falls. The night-time city has traditionally been a space from which women are barred. A place where our presence is often questioned, especially when we are on our own. One where our bodies are perceived as vulnerable, but also as objects. This has influenced the perception of women's safety at night – particularly in relation to sexual violence, which affects the most intimate aspect of our bodies – and restricts our right to the city.
Most urban planning projects that look at night-time city planning have centred on what is known as the night-time economy of city centres. This scheme seeks to revitalise the economy through nightlife and alcohol consumption and perpetuates a night-time culture that is predominantly masculine and hetero-patriarchal.
Night-time city planning, then, has focused on just a small segment of life at night, reproducing a romantic view of the night-time public as consumers of entertainment. This focus fails to recognise that night-time is also a time of work, caring and reproduction devoid of any glamour at all in the eyes of those who work nights, and all this has a significant impact on their everyday lives.
In order to highlight the need to include productive/reproductive aspects of the night from an intersectional feminist standpoint, and to break with the predominantly male, entertainment-based night-time culture, Col·lectiu Punt 6 set out to develop a research project with women who work at night. "Night creatures: the everyday life of women who work at night in the Metropolitan Area of Barcelona" is a research project-cum-participative feminist initiative that was carried out between 2015 and 2017 to analyse how urban planning in Barcelona's metropolitan area impacts on the everyday lives of women who work at night. More specifically, it studies aspects such as how gender roles influence mobility, the perception of safety, the decision to work at night, how everyday life is played out, social relations, health and employment inequality.
This project was carried out in partnership with the social justice foundation Fundació Àmbit Prevenció, the Comisiones Obreras trade union's office for women, the Ca la Dona women's organisation and the Irídia human rights centre, along with a team of 24 women who work at night in different industries and areas (cleaning, healthcare, care for the elderly, local police, emergency services and sex work).
Insufficient transport and safety
Night-time mobility and perceived safety are the two issues that most affect the everyday lives of female night workers, particularly those who travel by public transport or on foot. The Barcelona metropolitan area's public transport system does not meet the needs of the female night workers community: the times, frequencies and routes of night services present a real obstacle. The public transport system connects the outskirts of the metropolitan area with the city itself, but the connectivity between different towns leaves a lot to be desired, especially in El Baix Llobregat, and even when towns are close to each other. It's not that there isn't any public transport, it's just that the time it takes to go from A to B is so long that it seriously prejudices the people that most rely on this transport, particularly at certain times of the early morning (between 5:00 am and 6:30 am) and at the weekend, and particularly on certain routes.
The subway to Bellvitge Hospital from the bus stop on the other side of Gran Via.
The sense of a lack of safety is another factor that limits women's right to the city and that is partly caused by physical aspects of the environment such as the monofunctional nature of work sites and the lack of visibility in these areas. But this factor also intersects with mobility: on the walk to the public transport facility, in the facility itself and inside the public transport vehicle.
The way these transport infrastructures have been designed doesn't afford women autonomy, safety or freedom of movement. Factors such as the layout of parking areas and the nature of the on-foot sections of the journey between mode of transport and place of work or home ultimately drive women to change their routes, look for alternatives or rely on other people to get to work and home again. Several particularly worrying cases of sexual violence have been recorded. These include the one in the underpass under Gran Via between Hospital de Bellvitge and the Baixbus stop, and another at the bridge connecting the Santa Eulàlia metro station with L'Hospitalet's Collblanc district.
In monofunctional work areas, the lack of diverse activities and mixed uses can be linked to designs that ignore pedestrians. These are areas that have a dearth of public transport, that prioritise the use of private vehicles, that have broad and often poorly-lit avenues where hardly anyone is seen walking at night, and that lack any decent connections with nearby neighbourhoods.
A lack of safety can be attributed to both physical and social factors. One issue of great concern is the fear that a group of inebriated people, particularly men, can inspire on Friday or Saturday night journeys. Many women share stories of the sexual harassment they've experienced on their journeys, which has forced them to change routes so as not to leave any trace of their itinerary and avoid being followed.
The most vulnerable groups
The bridge that connects the Santa Eulàlia metro station with the Collblanc district in L'Hospitalet.
It is worth noting that some groups of women are more vulnerable to sexual assault than others. Both street sweepers and sex workers suffer sexual assaults and acts of violence. This is because of the way society as a whole views women's bodies in public spaces at night, and because of the socially undervalued nature of the work they do. Sex workers feel vulnerable because they work in the street, and because their bodies are seen as objects that can be coerced and abused far beyond the job they are being paid for. Street sweepers also suffer harassment and assaults just for being women who clean streets. The low social value of cleaning work means that they are often treated as just another piece of street furniture or are harassed and assaulted.
These are some of the conclusions drawn by the project. The analysis of everyday life, with the active participation of the subjects of this study, has helped to shed light on the way women use the city at night and to vindicate our right to call it our own, irrespective of how we use it or what we do during the night hours.

This project was made possible by a two year bursary (2015-2017) from the Public Scholars Initiative of the Department of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies of the University of British Columbia (Vancouver, Canada) and by a grant to organisations awarded by the Barcelona City Council in 2016.

Have you given any thought to how we use the city and the public space? Men and women make use of the city in different ways: men move around the city more for occupational reasons (19.4%), while for women it's primarily for family reasons (15.6%) with occupational concerns in second place.
Barcelona urban planning: a look at everyday life
Efforts to refocus urban planning to take into account the human aspect place a special emphasis on the gender perspective, the aim being to obtain an equal use of the city based on the diversity of gender, ethnic origin, age or occupation of the community.
Towards a paradigm shift: the caring city
Rethinking the city from a feminist perspective means no longer creating spaces on the basis of production rationales that are socially and politically restrictive and, instead, starting to think about environments that place a greater emphasis on the people who use them.
A pioneering approach in Poble-sec
In 2015, organisations and groups in the Poble-sec neighbourhood created a protocol – Guidelines for feminist festivals – to prevent and take action against gender-based violence at street festivals. The ultimate goal is to extend those guidelines to include every type of recreational space in the neighbourhood and in everyday life.
Urban planning and gender from Barcelona to the world
Metropolis Women, the strategic network run by the Barcelona's Department for Feminism and LGTBI, is working to mainstream the gender perspective within the World Association of the Major Metropolises, which has 138 member cities around the world.
Grass-roots feminism and resistance to gentrification
Grass-roots feminism finds its expression in multiple movements fighting for an urban space, that smash the stereotypes of female passivity and bring women out of situations of vulnerability, onto the path of resistance.
Symphony for a feminist city
The new visibility of women and their demands also set out to express itself through cinema, to reflect the political activities of the second wave of feminist groups and be used as propaganda to raise awareness.
A different future is possible
The changes from which the new cities will emerge will be feminist in nature since they will be based on life, not production; on health, not depredation; on collaboration and mutual support, not on competition: all long-held feminist values.

by Rachel Hawkins
These 20-somethings quickly learn island life is about the little things: Strong Drinks. Soft Sand. Cool Water. Murder.
Movieish
Drug & alcohol use
Actress, Author, and Dancer
Set on a beautiful, remote island, with unforgettable characters, Reckless Girls is the kind of book that goes down like one smooth sip. In it, Rachel Hawkins proves yet again that she is a master of suspense, plotting twists that you won't see coming with the skill and assured hand of a true artist. But here, she has painted something truly sinister.
Lux McAllister wants nothing more than to ditch her dead-end job and leave Hawaii to travel all over the world. When two women approach her boyfriend, Nic, about chartering a boat to the remote Meroe Island, known for its shipwrecks and rumored murders, Lux joins the group and becomes instant friends with Brittany and Amma. Meroe Island is everything they hoped it would be—it's beautiful and off the beaten path—a chance to disconnect from the real world. But they soon find out that they are not alone. As bonds of friendship begin to fray and people start to go missing, the group starts to question whether or not they will make it off the island alive.
Rachel Hawkins's latest thriller is an instant favorite. It has everything you could want: paradise, adventure, friendship, and murder. I anticipated enjoying this book but not this much. If you love stories that are propulsive and leave you guessing until the end, then your next read must be Reckless Girls.
When Lux McAllister and her boyfriend, Nico, are hired to sail two women to a remote island in the South Pacific, it seems like the opportunity of a lifetime. Stuck in a dead-end job in Hawaii and longing to travel the world after a family tragedy, Lux is eager to climb on board The Susannah and set out on an adventure. She's also quick to bond with their passengers, college best friends Brittany and Amma. The two women say they want to travel off the beaten path. But like Lux, they may have other reasons to be seeking an escape.
Shimmering on the horizon after days at sea, Meroe Island is every bit the paradise the foursome expects, despite a mysterious history of shipwrecks, cannibalism, and even rumors of murder. But what they don't expect is to discover another boat already anchored off Meroe's sandy beaches. The owners of the Azure Sky, Jake and Eliza, are a true golden couple: gorgeous, laidback, and, if their sleek catamaran and well-stocked bar are any indication, rich. Now a party of six, the new friends settle in to experience life on an exotic island, and the serenity of being completely off the grid. Lux hasn't felt like she truly belonged anywhere in years, yet here on Meroe, with these fellow free spirits, she finally has a sense of peace.
But with the arrival of a skeevy stranger sailing alone in pursuit of a darker kind of good time, the balance of the group is disrupted. Soon, cracks begin to emerge: it seems that Brittany and Amma haven't been completely honest with Lux about their pasts—and perhaps not even with each other. And though Jake and Eliza seem like the perfect pair, the rocky history of their relationship begins to resurface, and their reasons for sailing to Meroe might not be as innocent as they first appeared.
When it becomes clear that the group is even more cut off from civilization than they initially thought, it starts to feel like the island itself is closing in on them. And when one person goes missing, and another turns up dead, Lux begins to wonder if any of them are going to make it off the island alive.

Series 6: Level 2
Written by Nicholas Lam
Category: Series 6
Level 2 of series 6 was achieved almost entirely using photography of real locations, particularly castle interiors.
Castle Ruins
The Undercroft
A long chamber, often split into two parts given its length. Often, the teams' escape would take them off to the side, however, and eye-shield sequences would lead away to an alternative portal.
WitchHaven
The most significant character-type addition to series 6 were the witches, and the proposed alliance between Lord Fear and Queen Greystagg proved the spine of the wider synopsis across the series. WitchHaven included courtyards, a firebomb-room for Peggatty, a solar room, and Greystagg's Chamber. It also led to a chapel in quest 2, and the witches had assumed control of the level 2 causeway by the final quest.
Featured once, for Dreadnort's only victim.
Similar styled causeways. In the final quest of the season [below, right], both causeways had an additional hazard of a scroll to consult on a non-safe tile. In this case, the team had to learn the name of the guarding pooka and dispell it.
The Rocks of Bruin
Treguard: "It's a place of legend... Don't ask. You wouldn't like to know."
Introduced as a sinister location towards the end of level 2, and a place to mobilise attempted ambushes for the opposition. It didn't seem to pose a great deal of direct threat. Heggatty, Sidriss and a disguised Hordriss all made appearances here.
End of Level


I'm still in Toronto and there's been a heat wave warning for this week. Today and tomorrow, we'll reach a high of 34 C / 93.2 F!
I've been seeking relief by staying in my sister's basement and working from air conditioned coffee shops. However, my boyfriend's car's A/C is broken, so sitting in traffic is the worst. The fan and the A/C can't work at the same time, so you have to turn the A/C on for a few seconds, then switch to the fan so cold air blows out. Then after 3 seconds, there's no more cold air so you have to start over again.
If you're doing a lot of backyard grilling and going to summer BBQs, you might be looking for something a little more interesting, healthy but still vegan to eat. I feel like people usually do grilled veggies (which can get boring), chips & salsa (not so waist-friendly) and non-vegan ice cream (none for me).
Here are some super easy, fruit and veggie-based summer party snacks to mix it up. Each thing takes like 2 seconds of effort to make, which is nice because it's too hot to deal with anything complicated.
This drink is so refreshing and full of watermelon-y goodness.
This is a sweet, refreshing, low-carb alternative to the usual chips and guac or chips and salsa.
Slice each mango into thirds, with the middle section being the seed.
Cut a grid onto the outer thirds, then flip inside out and slice off the cubes that stick out.
You could also do this over a fire when camping!
These are full of electrolytes and natural sweetness, unlike many store-bought popsicles that are filled with high-fructose corn syrup (!!). Since the frozen coconut water is clear, you can see all the pretty fruits, too.
assorted frozen or fresh fruits, such as kiwi, strawberries, mango, pineapple, and blueberries.
Fill the molds with as much fruit as you like. You might have to press some of the fruit onto the sides of the mold so they don't all clump together at the bottom.

The Budget Control Act, passed on Aug.
With less than a month remaining until its deadline to engineer $1.5 trillion in deficit reduction over the next decade, the Deficit Super Committee has worked exclusively over the past month behind closed doors – out of the public's view to determine whether the panel is making substantial progress.
The lack of transparency has left many on Capitol Hill scratching their heads and wondering just what progress the committee has made since it last met publicly on Sept. 22. Without a steady flow of information coming from the private meetings, it's also left some political observers skeptical that the 12-member panel will succeed in reaching its mandate.
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama says he wants to make sure millionaires are taxed at higher rates than their secretaries. The data say they already are.
The 10 percent of households with the highest incomes pay more than half of all federal taxes.
Republicans are criticizing the Obama administration for its budget proposals.
A new estimate from the Congressional Budget Office said the White House has underestimated future deficits by $2.3 trillion over 10 years.
(CNSNews.com) – On the same day that House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) was chiding House Republicans over job creation, the director of the Congressional Budget Office was testifying in the House Budget Committee that the health-care law President Barack Obama signed last year will kill about 800,000 American jobs over the next decade.
CBO Director Douglas Elmendorf was responding to a question from Rep. John Campbell (R-Calif.) regarding an August report from the CBO.


Entering the enterprise world from an embedded background feels a bit like Alice must have felt when she entered Wonderland. Sometimes you feel very big, other times you feel awfully small. Worse, you often do not know your relative size in that new and wondrous world. One of these areas for me is persistence and its associated transaction model.
The reason I have to understand this area better is that for the enRoute project we will have to provide a persistence model that makes sense in a world build out of reusable components. If these components are closely tied to a specific database, JPA, and transaction manager implementations than reuse will be minimal, forfeiting the purpose. There are many issues to solve but analyzing this landscape one thing seems to pop up: the transaction composability problem. A problem quite severe in a reusable component model like OSGi.
Transactions provide the Atomic, Consistent, Isolated, and Durable (ACID) properties to a group of operations. This grouping is in general tied to a thread. A method starts a transaction and subsequent calls on that thread are part of the grouping until the transaction is either committed or rolled back. The easy solution is to start a transaction at the edge of the system (RMI, servlet, queue manager, etc.) and rollback/commit when the call into the application code returns. However, transactions are related to locks in the databases (and other resource managers) it is therefore crucial to minimize the number of grouped operations to increase throughput and minimize deadlocks. Generating HTML inside a transaction can seriously reduce throughput. Therefore, application developers need to handle transactions in their code.
One of the issues these developers must handle is how to treat an existing transaction. Should they join it or suspend it? Is being called outside a transaction allowed? Since methods can be called in many different orders and from many different places it is very hard to make assumptions about the current transaction state in a method. For example method foo() and bar() can each begin a transaction but then foo() can not call bar() or vice versa.
The corresponding complexity and associated boilerplate code resulted in declarative transactions. Annotations provide the suspend and joining strategy and something outside the application takes care of the details. EJB and Spring containers provide this functionality by proxying the instances or weaving the classes.
Back to OSGi. Since transactions will cross cut through all components we need to define a single transaction model that can be shared by all, just like the service model.
Obviously, we will need to register a Transaction Manager service so the different components can at least manage transactions together. However, do we need to prescribe a declarative model since this seems to be the best practice? Do we then pick EJB or Spring annotations? Support both? Or make new? Or are we moot on this and allow others to provide this support with extenders? This would be similar to the service model, Blueprint, iPOJO, Dependency Manager, and DS are all in business to make life easier for code using services, a similar model could be followed for transactions?
I am very interested in hearing feedback on this.
Rather don't. Seriously, trying to compose transactions is more pain than it's worth. The places where I have seen it tried have almost always ended up dumping the transaction composing because the performance is horrible. Also, almost nothing out there handles all of the edge cases, which means that sooner or later you end up having to hand-code recovery, which means you wasted all of that initial effort.
So what you're saying is, is that you want to manually handle transactions?
In case there will be a "standard" how transactions should be handled in the OSGi world, please leave out the annotation based transaction handling. It is used everywhere, than why?
First, there is the solution that the technology wraps the service class with a java proxy. It intercepts every call on the interface and if there is an annotation it handles transactions. Oops, there is a problem. What if a function call is done within the object. The function call will not be intrcepted.
Second, technologis start using ASM or Javassist to be able to intercept every function call, even the ones within the object. They do class inheritance and the inherited class is instantiated. Oops, there is a problem: What if I wanted to annotate private function within the class with @Transaction? It will not be handled by the inherited class.
What can we use than? I think the logic that there are transaction brackets and there is a commit in case of a return or rollback in case of a RuntimeException is cool. It makes programming much easier. Before Java 8 we can do this with unnamed classes passed to a TransactionHelper function or with an API that is similar to the one of ReentrantLock. Is it really a pain to write 3 lines more when we want to do transaction handling? After Java 8 we will have Lambda expressions and the code will look nicer.
Another use-case that should be concidered during the design of transaction handling in an application: Database clusters often work in that way that there is a master installation and synchronized replicas. We can insert and update the data on the master, while reading can be done on one of the replicas. It is especially useful if we do the FTS (full-text-search) based on the database engine. How do we decide if we should go to the master, or to a replica. In case there is an ongoing transaction, we go to the master and if not, we go to the replica. In case of a web application for most of the screen rendering, we do not even need transaction.
And as you wrote: Transactions should not be long. In a project there was a solution that the transaction was handled in a filter. Everything was in a transaction. Even the rendering of the page that was the 95% of the query processing time. The system could have been killed easily as many of the queries could not run parallel. Except for some special cases (uploading a large blob or something) I would say that the transaction timeout should not be longer than 1 second. That really forces the programmers to have an effective design.
Noel, can you please expand on your comments 1) "dumping the transaction composing because the performance is horrible" and 2) "sooner or later you end up having to hand-code recovery"?
I don't really care what solution (but I think there should be one) is implemented as long as it is simple to use, one line would be preferable (as is currently the case with Spring annotated transactions) but I suppose three may be okay.
Balázs you highlighted a couple of good points regarding some problems with the 'out of the box' Spring proxy solution where a function call is not intercepted within another function. It would be great if the new solution did not suffer the same restrictions.
I am not so concerned with speed of deployment vs simplicity of use. I think there will be more acceptance of a solution that is simple to use vs trading off speed of deployment, especially considering many will compare the new solution with an existing solution e.g. a one line annotation, so an increase in complexity will probably not be accepted well.
Balázs the example you sited where queries could not be run in parallel, I think that has more to do with the architecture of the database e.g. most MVCC relational databases (e.g Oracle, Postgres) will not block on a read when using read commited isolation, however SQL Server and Sybase can (or at least did in the past).
Where I really do disagree strongly is putting any restriction on a maximum transaction timeout. How long a transaction is open should be dependent on the use case. For example it is easy to envisage a process running asynchronously with respect to the user's action performing many long running statements updating/inserting/deleting millions of rows with a desire to do this within one transaction.
In case a database accepts 10 parallel connections from an application, it is really important to close a transaction as soon as it is poosible. By a managed connection pool the connection is held until the transaction is finished. In case there is a read query on the database and after that we have some HTML rendering that takes 200ms, that connection will be locked from parallel usage until that time. I do not think it is the solution to allow 200 times more connections on the database side.
In web applications if there is a CRUD or some similar solution, I think it is helpful for the lead developer to reduce the transaction timeout to 10ms. When a developer meets the problem that his/her code runs out of the timeout, they can have a code review together to see the causes. In many cases a bit or refactor will help. There are of course situations, when longer transaction timeout is necessary, e.g. when we upload a large blob into the database. It is another question if we store the blob in the database.
In case there are millions of rows to change, it should be done (if it is possible) with packets, e.g. 100 records/packet that can fit into a low transaction timeout. In many cases a bit of refactor can help, like adding a new field with a state that the fields are selected to process to be sure that the million rows are not modified until each packet is processed. On the million rows a bulk update runs fast enough.
In case we do anything based on a connection within a transaction the connection cannot be re-used until the transaction is finished. We can help with a managed connection pool so the same connection will be provided within the same transaction if available. In case the transaction is kept long unnecessarily, it will reduce the parallel processing of the application. Let's say we have a connection-pool with 8 connections. The server will not be able to process more than 8 queries parallel even if 100 parallel HTTP queries are allowed. What should we do than? Allow hundreds of connections to the database for each application? I do not think so.
In my opinion it is really good to reduce the transaction timeout to 1 sec or less (if it is possible). In case a developer meets the problem that his code runs out of the timeout, it is a good reason to have a code and design review. Most of the times, after a code review, the application speeds up a lot and there are no such problems anymore.
There are of course use-cases, when longer transactions are necessary. E.g.: If we store a large object (blob) in the database, upload and download takes time. In this case the transaction timeout can be longer.
In case there are millions of records that should be updated, it is often possible to re-design the schema a bit to handle this requirement. For example, a flag can be used in the table that tells the application that the records are selected for later process so nobody should update them. If we have this solution, it is possible process the data in packets (100 records in a transaction) that fits in a reasonable transaction time.
No-SQL databases flourished in the last few years. I think that there are use-cases when they are useful. However, in many cases developer want to change to no-SQL because they wrote bad quality code and kept long running transactions. With no-SQL the problem is "solved" as they will not be able to use long-running transactions. There will be always available connections from the pool.
(a) your transaction boundaries become unpredictable, which leads to hard-to-debug performance issues because some random component can sometimes take a very long time.
(b) you need to use 2-phase commit. Now 2PC is one of those deceptive things that doesn't look terribly hard to handle. Sorry various people try to implement it, and it will mostly seem to work in local testing. But they invariably get it wrong when handling the edge cases, which will invariably lead you to occasional partially committed data.
So my opinion is that transactions should never cross the API boundary between OSGI-level components, unless the component is itself exposing a transaction API.
I'm a little bit late in the discussion but I think the problem has not been solved yet. We had a project based on Gemini Blueprint last year. It was really nice to simply put @Transactional on all the methods that needed a transaction. The downside was that all implementation bundles had a dependency to org.springframework.transactions. We tried to do the transaction demarcation in Spring/Gemini configuration files and to put these files in extra configuration bundles. But that didn't work.
I'd like to see a solution that reuses existing technologies (like Spring) but keeps the vendor/container specific stuff out of the implementation bundles.

Q: I am not able to get dependencies for my flutter project - Flutter pub get issues How can i resolve this error, please I need help to get this resolved.
I am using the flutter dev channel
How can I resolve this error, please I need help to get this resolved.
Tried flutter channel dev also tried to flutter upgrade but nothing worked.
Please help me with it thanks
 Because every version of flutter_test from sdk depends on async 2.6.1 and fstore depends on async 2.5.0, flutter_test from sdk is forbidden.
    So, because fstore depends on flutter_test any from sdk, version solving failed.

Oh, Cannes-ada: 'Mommy' and 'Maps to the Stars' Bring 2 Cannes Wins for Canadian Film
The Mommy team at Cannes
Well, we didn't take the Palme, but today's award ceremony at Cannes notes a landmark year for Canadian films. Canuck films Mommy and Maps to the Stars took two of the top prizes. The wins cap off an exciting week for Canadian film that got off to a rocky start when the third Canadian film in the competition, Atom Egoyan's The Captive, opened to a chorus of boos and scathing reviews.
Canada's Xavier Dolan wins the Jury's Prize for 'Mommy' at #Cannes2014 by @AlbertoPizzoli pic.twitter.com/7rThuwb6h8
— AFPredcarpet (@AFPredcarpet) May 24, 2014
Xavier Dolan's Mommy tied with Jean-Luc Godard's Goodbye to Language for the Jury Prize, which marks the equivalent of a third place win. That's quite a feat, although the match-up of a twenty-five year-old director and an eighty-three year old director seems like a cute play of jury politics. Dolan was largely tipped for the win and his walk to the stage was marked by a smattering of cries "Palme!" that were even audible on the video stream. It's a notable win nevertheless for the young Canadian director in his first inclusion in the official selection at Cannes and the rave reviews for Mommy alone should be a source of pride. The Palme winner, Winter Sleep, was a mild surprise since most critics and pundits at the fest tipped Dolan or Andrey Zvyagintsev's Leviathan for the win, or the Dardenne brothers' Two Days, One Night, which was shut out altogether.
Julianne Moore in Maps to the Stars
The other notable Canuck win went to Julianne Moore for her acclaimed performance in David Cronenberg's Maps to the Stars. Cronenberg's film, a biting Hollywood satire, drew some of the best reviews for the director since 2005's A History of Violence. Moore wasn't on hand to collect the prize, but her win could give the controversial film some extra steam in the months too come. Maps to the Stars probably won't see the same odds of making a Cannes/Oscars crossover that fellow winners Bennett Miller (Foxcatcher) and Timothy Spall (Mr. Turner) could see, but next year's Canadian Screen Awards could be in for quite the Best Actress smackdown between Moore and Mommy's Anne Dorval.
Cannes Winners:
Palme d'or: Winter Sleep by Nuri Bilge Ceylan
Grand prix (runner-up): Le meraviglie (The Wonders) by Alice Rohrwacher
Jury Prize: Mommy by Xavier Dolan; Goodbye to Language by Jean-Luc Godard
Best Director: Bennett Miller, Foxcatcher
Best Actress: Julianne Moore, Maps to the Stars
Best Actor: Timothy Spall, Mr. Turner
Best Screenplay: Leviathan - Andrey Zvyagintsev, Oleg Negin
Camera d'or (Best First Feature): Party Girl Maria Amachoukeli, Claire Burger, Samuel Theis
Palme d'or court metrage (Best Short Film): Leidi, Simon Mesa Soto (Honorable mention: Aïssa and Yes We Love)
The jury for this year's Cannes Film Festival was led by Jane Campion (The Piano) and included Carole Bouquet (For Your Eyes Only), Sofia Coppola (The Bling Ring), Leila Hatami (A Sepraration), Jeon Do-Yeon (The Housemaid), Willem Dafoe (The Grand Budapest Hotel), Gael Garcia Bernal (Y Tu Mama Tambien), Jia Zhangke (A Touch of Sin), and Nicolas Winging Refn (Drive).

Diatomite is a natural porous biomaterial of sedimentary origin, formed by fragments of diatom siliceous skeletons, called "frustules". Due to large availability in many areas of the world, chemical stability, and non-toxicity, these fossil structures have been widespread used in a lot of industrial applications, such as food production, water extracting agent, production of cosmetics and pharmaceutics. However, diatomite is surprisingly still rarely used in biomedical applications. In this study, the properties of diatomite nanoparticles as potential system for the delivery of anticancer molecules in cancer cells were exploited. A purification procedure, based on thermal treatments in strong acid solutions, was used to remove inorganic and organic impurities from diatomite and to make them a safe material for medical applications. The micrometric diatomite powder was reduced in nanoparticles by mechanical crushing, sonication, and filtering. Morphology and composition of diatomite were investigated by scanning electron microscopy equipped by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, photoluminescence and dynamic light scattering measurements. In-vitro experiments show a very low toxicity on exposure of the cells to diatomite nanoparticle concentration up to 300 μg/ml for 72 h. Diatomite nanoparticles were functionalized by 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and labeled by tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate. Different concentrations of chemically modified nanoparticles were incubated with cancer cells and confocal microscopy was performed. Imaging analysis showed an efficient cellular uptake and homogeneous distribution of nanoparticles in cytoplasm and nucleus, thus suggesting their potentiality as nanocarriers for drug delivery. Subsequently, siRNA bioconjugation were performed and confocal microscopy imaging on cancer cells incubated with siRNAconjugated nanoparticles demonstrated a cytoplasmatic localization of vectors. Gene silencing by delivered siRNA was also demonstrated. Our studies endorse diatomite nanoparticles as non-toxic nanocarriers for siRNA transport in cancer cells. siRNA-diatomite nanoconjugate may be well suited for delivery of therapeutic to cancer cells.


Jeremiah speaks > Baruch writes it down > Dtr and others redact > Very messy period that we know little about > Earliest textual witnesses such at Dead Sea Scrolls and LXX > Later textual witnesses such as Vulgate and Masoretic Texts > English translation such as New Revised Version > Their eyes at 3 AM in a dorm room.
I'm looking forward to reading the papers and am happy thus far with the choice of topic. It's been a very good exercise to demonstrate that there is no such thing as THE Bible. I believe that if Jeremiah could time travel and read the biblical book attributed to him, he would shake his head and sigh.


Fellow Jihadists - are you lonely? Want to meet that special person who you can die with in a glorious suicide in order to bring about the Caliphate? Please download the new Islamic State approved dating app now. Praise be Allah! Death to Canada!
There must be also another Jihadi app that monitors the severity of climate change and its effects on ammo and explosives.
Yes, we are working on this very app with the help of climate activists who do not want unnecessary explosions. They also believe that the global warming affects our already hot tempers. And thank you to your President for not blowing up our oil reserves in order to save the world. Turkey has just ordered more oil and we are barely able to meet the demands.
"He wrote in an online profile on a Muslim dating site six years prior that he enjoys doing target practice in his backyard ".
I have a hard time believing the validity of this, I mean seriously, an Iphone with 100% battery? Surely nothing like this has ever been encountered in the wild.
Oh my... the things you see/learn on the internet!
Guess what his password is yet?
"Oh my... the things you see/learn on the internet!Guess what his password is yet?"
Olga is a co-conspirator in this travesty? I'm crushed.
A profile appearing to be for San Bernardino, California killer Syed Farook was posted on a dating website called iMilap, which caters to people with disabilities as well as people looking for a second marriage. Farook's profile, allegedly posted by his parents, describes a modern Muslim who enjoyed target practice in the backyard with his siblings. According to the profile, Farook did not have a physical disability.
Though the circumstances of how they met have not been confirmed, Farook may have met his wife through a site online, as he had several profiles on different Muslim dating sites. The description posted on his profile on iMilap is ridden with spelling and grammatical errors and describes him as "religios but modern family of 4, 2girls 2boys I work for county as health,safety and envorimental inspector." The site lists his age as 22, but gives no date of publication of the profile. Farook lived with his mother, Rafia Sultana Farook.
Interests listed on Farook's profile were "working on vintage and modern cars, read religios books, enjoy eating out sometimes travel and just hang out in back yard doing target pratice with younger sister and friends." The only picture on the site appears to show him in his front yard.
Ahh.... but did the targets enjoy it?

The main difference between monocot stem and dicot stem is that monocot stem contains scattered vascular bundles across the stem whereas dicot stem contains vascular bundles arranged in the form of one or two rings.
Monocot stem and dicot stem are the two types of stem structures in flowering plants. Furthermore, monocot stem does not contain distinct cortex or stele while dicot stem contains two distinct regions known as cortex and stele.
The monocot stem is the stem structure present in monocot plants. The main characteristic feature of the monocot stem is the presence of scattered vascular bundles across the stem. Generally, vascular bundles are composed of xylem and phloem. In the monocot stem, each vascular bundle is surrounded by a bundle sheath made up of sclerenchyma cells. Therefore, the vascular bundles in the monocot stem are conjoint, collateral, and closed.
Furthermore, the monocot stem bears several significant features including the lack of trichomes (epidermal hairs), medullary rays, cortex or pith, and a stele. Also, the hypodermis of the monocot stem is made up of sclerenchyma cells.
Dicot stem is the stem structure characterized by the concentric arrangement of stem structures. The vascular bundles of the stem show a ring-shaped arrangement. Moreover, the vascular bundles of the dicot stem are also made up of conjoining the xylem and phloem tissues. But, these vascular bundles do not contain a bundle sheath surrounding them. Therefore, the vascular bundles of the dicot stem are conjoint, collateral, and open. However, parenchyma cells surround each vascular bundle in the dicot stem.
Moreover, dicot stem contains trichomes in the epidermis. Also, the dicot stem comprises a prominent cortex and stele. On the contrary, the hypodermis of the dicot stem is made up of collenchyma. More importantly, the dicot stem undergoes secondary thickening, which leads to the secondary growth of the stem, increasing the width of the stem with time.
These are two stem structures in flowering plants.
A thick layer of the cuticle is present in both stems.
Also, both stems contain single-layered epidermis.
Further, they contain a hypodermis.
Moreover, both stems contain photosynthetic chlorenchyma cells.
And, most of the ground tissue comprises parenchyma cells.
Besides, their xylem and phloem are arranged into vascular bundles.
These vascular bundles are collateral, surrounded by parenchyma.
Their xylem comprises both protoxylem and metaxylem.
Functionaaly, the main function of both stems is to hold leaves, facilitating photosynthesis and conduction of water and nutrients throughout the plant body.
Monocot stem refers to the stem of the monocot plants characterized by the presence of scattered vascular bundles while dicot stem refers to the stem of the dicot plants characterized by the presence of vascular bundles arranged in rings. Thus, this is the main difference between monocot stem and dicot stem.
Monocot stems contain scattered vascular bundles across the stem while dicot stems contain vascular bundles arranged in the form of rings.
Another difference between monocot stem and dicot stem is that monocot stems contain numerous vascular bundles while dicot stems contain 4 to 8 vascular bundles.
Moreover, the outer vascular bundles are smaller than the inner vascular bundles in monocot stems while all vascular bundles are equal in size in dicot stems.
The vascular bundles of the monocot stem do not contain a sclerenchymatous bundle cap while the vascular bundles of the dicot stem contain a sclerenchymatous bundle cap. Hence, this is another difference between monocot stem and dicot stem.
Furthermore, the vascular bundles of the monocot stem are surrounded by a sclerenchymatous bundle sheath while the vascular bundles of the dicot stem are not surrounded by a bundle sheath.
Also, only two metaxylem elements are present per vascular bundle in the monocot stem while many metaxylem elements are present in the dicot stem.
Besides, one other difference between monocot stem and dicot stem is that protoxylem lacuna is present in the monocot stem while protoxylem lacuna is absent in the dicot stem.
While the xylem elements of the monocot stem are circular, the xylem elements of the dicot stem are polygonal.
The monocot stem does not contain both phloem parenchyma and phloem fibers while the dicot stem contains both phloem parenchyma and phloem fibers.
The monocot stem does not contain a pith while the pith is present in the dicot stem.
In addition, the monocot stem does not contain medullary rays while medullary rays are present in the dicot stem.
Pericycle is absent in the monocot stem while the pericycle is present in the dicot stem.
The ground tissue of the monocot stem is not differentiated while the ground tissue of the dicot stem is differentiated into steler and extra-steler tissue.
While the hypodermis of the monocot stem is sclerenchymatous, the hypodermis of the dicot stem is chlorenchymatous.
Furthermore, the monocot stem does not contain trichomes while the dicot stem contains trichomes.
The epidermis of the monocot stem does not undergo silica deposition while the epidermis of the dicot stem undergoes silica deposition.
Secondary thickening is another difference between monocot stem and dicot stem. The former does not undergo secondary thickening while the latter undergoes secondary thickening.
Monocot stem is a stem that has scattered vascular bundles across the stem. Moreover, a bundle sheath surrounds these vascular bundles. Additionally, its hypodermis is made up of sclerenchyma and this stem does not contain a pith or stele. On the other hand, a dicot stem is a stem that has vascular bundles arranged in rings. But, a bundle sheath does not surround these vascular bundles. Its hypodermis contains collenchyma. This stem contains a distinct pith and stele. Therefore, the main difference between monocot stem and dicot stem is the structure and arrangement of vascular bundles, hypodermis, and pith and stele.

O rio Toccoa/Ocoee é atualmente o único rio que corre para o noroeste através dos Apalaches do sul, por onde passa pelas cidades gêmeas de McCaysville, Geórgia e Copperhill, Tennessee, no sudeste dos Estados Unidos. Para atravessar esse rio, deve-se usar a ponte que liga o Georgia State Route 5 (Blue Ridge Street) com Tennessee State Route 68 e Estado da Geórgia Route 60 (Ocoee Toccoa Street e Street). Esse corpo d'água é conhecido pelo seu rafting, slalom e águas turbulentas e, por isso, permite o aproveitamento da sua correnteza como sede de eventos sociais locais, além de já ter sido palco do campeonato dos Jogos Olímpicos de Verão de 1996 realizada principalmente em Atlanta, cerca de cem milhas (160 km) ao Sul da Região.
