I am a licensed psychologist in New York City and I am on the faculty at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and part of the Children's Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center. I received a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Pennsylvania. From there, I attended Fordham University where I earned a Masters Degree in Education, a Professional Diploma and my Ph.D. in psychology. While at Fordham, I was mentored by the renowned Rosa Hagin Ph.D. Throughout graduate school I received in-depth training in Dr. Hagin's (and Dr. Silver's) early identification/intervention program called SEARCH and TEACH.
After graduate school, I co-authored a chapter with Dr. Rosa A. Hagin on diagnosing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): the chapter is featured in ADHD: Achieving success in school and in life.
My areas of specialty include neuropsychological disorders such as learning disabilities, attention deficit disorders, pervasive developmental disorders and social emotional disorders. Areas of expertise include diagnosis, counseling, and remediation of learning problems.
After I earned my doctorate, I was the learning specialist for 3 years at Andrus Children's Center, a residential treatment center for emotionally disturbed children. One of my responsibilities was to work with teachers to refine the curriculum so that each classroom was tailored for children who had special learning needs. I also worked individually with those children whose reading levels were 3 to 5 years below grade level. I worked with the children for 2 years and I was able to improve each of their reading levels significantly when no one before had been successful.
Currently, I spend two days a week at Albert Einstein College of Medicine where I am part of the faculty on the pediatric unit. My responsibilities include psychoeducational evaluations as well as individual and group counseling for children who are chronically ill with diseases such as Cancer, lead poisoning, with HIV/ AIDS, or who are on the Autism spectrum.
During the three days that I am not at the hospital, I have a private practice in Manhattan. I work with children and adolescents from the leading independent schools in Manhattan and Riverdale for both testing and counseling. In private practice, I conduct thorough neuropsychological evaluations, which include psychological, educational, neuropsychological, and social emotional components. I also work individually with children who are learning disabled helping them develop certain neuropsychological skills while teaching them to read, organize, and write. I have also developed and run therapeutic groups.
I am a member of the professional advisory board of the national organization Smart Kids with Learning Disabilities. I contribute to their newsletter and participated in a program for Smart Kids with Learning Disabilities when they cosponsored a forum on learning disabilities and neuropsychological evaluations with the University of Connecticut.
In the past, I appeared as a guest on the cable television show "Dr. Carol Goldberg" where I discussed learning disabilities and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

Veteran M&P contributing editor honored by AMI
By Joel Crews
ATLANTA – During a Jan. 30 awards breakfast at the International Production and Processing Expo, longtime contributing editor to Meat&Poultry and Publisher of Cattle Buyers Weekly, Steve Kay received the American Meat Institute's Industry Advancement Award. Each year the AMI recognizes an organization or individual whose contributions have positively affected the industry. Past recipients of the award include a former secretary of agriculture, CEOs of respected companies and industry research organizations. This marks the first time a journalist has been the recipient.
"In addition to writing his own weekly newsletter, Kay writes monthly columns for publications and media outlets in the US, Canada and Australia and has been the contributing beef editor for Meat&Poultry since 1987," said AMI Chairman Nick Meriggioli, president of Kraft Foods Inc./Oscar Mayer, who presented the award. "Through his coverage and his analysis, he has helped advance the industry and has forced policymakers to consider proposed policy more thoughtfully."
Due to an obligation that required him to be in New Zealand, M&P Editor, Joel Crews accepted Kay's award on his behalf. In his pre-recorded acceptance speech, Kay said receiving the award was the crowning achievement of his 40-year career.
"I love writing about the industry," said Kay in his remarks. "What I treasure most are the deep relationships I have made. I have been privileged to work in an industry full of exceptionally talented men and women, many of whom have become close friends. As I bring to mind these people, I have great faith in the future of the industry," he said.

Grapefruit seed extract is a wonderful addition to your Phase One medicine cabinet. This, powerful, concentrated substance is still all natural, pulled right from the seed of one our favorite Phase One foods, the grapefruit. It has so many uses that one really shouldn't be without a bottle of the stuff – and a little goes a long way. Grapefruit seed extract is so powerful and so concentrated that it really must be diluted for nearly any use. Here is a list (although likely not a comprehensive one) of grapefruit seed extract benefits and uses.
Grapefruit seed extract comes in pill form, but all the uses before (except for internally) are referring to the liquid form of GSE.
It is one of our favorite anti-fungal supplements at Know the Cause. Doug often recommends this in the same breath as olive leaf extract or oregano oil when he talks about internal anti-fungals. It ranks as a top-tier defense against yeast and pathogenic fungi. Grapefruit seed extract is one of the most powerful anti-fungals available without a prescription, so it may not be the first anti-fungal you would reach for. Use something more gentle, like olive leaf extract, before reaching for GSE. In the event that you are really struggling with internal fungal problems, grapefruit seed might be a the perfect supplement for such an occasion.
The one thing we would caution caution about is this: Grapefruit seed extract is sometimes said to be as powerful as an antibiotic in some regards. Grapefruit seed extract is so powerful, that internal usage may result in gut dysbiosis, much in the same way that antibiotic usage would. Don't be afraid to use it as part of your Anti-fungal regimen, but be prudent, and follow its usage up with a good probioitic supplement to replenish the beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract.
Dilute in water, gargle, spit and rinse! Grapefruit seed extract is very bitter, and it is always advised to dilute when using it. When using it as a mouthwash, use sparingly in water. Try adding some peppermint oil for some refreshing flavor and to help mitigate the bitterness.
Use as a topical solution.
Be sure to dilute, but you can use grapefruit seed extract on your skin as a cleaner or for mild irritations. You can also add GSE to shampoo as a treatment for your scalp.
Use as a multipurpose cleaner.
Dilute in a spray bottle and use on virtually anything! Grapefruit seed extract's antimicrobial properties will help keep bugs and fungus off surfaces. GSE is great as a fruit and vegetable wash, toothpaste wash, or as a cleaner for dishes and eating utensils.
The benefits of grapefruit seed extract are numerous and it is an invaluable part of your Phase one medicine cabinet. Regardless of its application, grapefruit seed extract is a safe, fungus fighting substance that will come in handy for a number of uses.

Effective environmental protection is unthinkable without effective environmental analysis. An important position takes on a measurement of the oxygen content. Thus, the development and dissemination of modern oxygen measurement technology is closely linked to the growing importance of environmental protection. By oxygen control in combustion plants to energy consumption and emissions can be significantly limited. Our fail-safe oxygen probes make an important contribution.
We developed and produced more than two decades oxygen measurement systems that enable accurate oxygen measurements in a wide concentration range. Our oxygen sensors have as its centerpiece a dynamic oxygen sensor based on zirconium dioxide. To explain the measurement principle please read the article oxygen measurement in our knowledge base.
At our oxygen sensors the measurement signal output exists of two independent channels. The output signal of the analog channel is linear and between 4 and 20 mA (alternatively 0.1 to 10 V). The digital channel is a pulse-length modulated alternating signal (High-Phase 5 V, Low-Phase 0 V). The length of the low-phase is a degree of the oxygen concentration and can be calculated using a downstream device. With the monitoring of both channels a fail-safe operation without the second probe is possible.
Additionally, our sensors are designed so that their proper function can be checked during operation. A regular functional testing can be implemented by wiring the integrated test pins.
see product The measuring systems of the product family MF-Oxy determine the concentration of oxygen in air mixture, by using a specific dynamic zirconium dioxide sensor. We offer versions with different probe lengths and temperature ranges.
see product The measuring systems MF010-O-LC (Flex) is the flexible version of the MF010-O-LC. Means: Due to the flexible connection between probe and evaluation electronics extensive mounting possibilities are given. We offer versions with different measuring ranges and output signals.

Q: Pause setInterval on hover of Ajax Quick Cart and resume when not? I'm trying to set up my Ajax Quick Cart so that if the user is hovering over the quick cart (in other words interacting with it) it delays a setInterval that I have set on it to close the cart once something has been added after 3 seconds.
I'm not that great with JS so any help would be appreciated!
This is my original code:
{% comment %}
Ajaxify your cart with this plugin.
Documentation:
    - http://shopify.com/timber#ajax-cart
{% endcomment %}
{% if settings.ajax_cart_enable %}
  {{ 'handlebars.min.js' | asset_url | script_tag }}
  {% include 'ajax-cart-template' %}
  {{ 'ajax-cart.js' | asset_url | script_tag }}
  <script>
    jQuery(function($) {
      ajaxCart.init({
        formSelector: '#AddToCartForm',
        cartContainer: '#CartContainer',
        addToCartSelector: '#AddToCart',
        cartCountSelector: '#CartCount',
        cartCostSelector: '#CartCost',
        moneyFormat: {{ shop.money_format | json }}
      });
    });

    jQuery('body').on('ajaxCart.afterCartLoad', function(evt, cart) {
      // Bind to 'ajaxCart.afterCartLoad' to run any javascript after the cart has loaded in the DOM

      timber.RightDrawer.open();
    });

    jQuery('body').on('click','#AddToCart', function(evt, cart) {

          timber.RightDrawer.open();

              var myVar = setInterval(function(){
              timber.RightDrawer.close();
              clearInterval(myVar);
              }, 3000);
    });

This is part of the original code I have tried to adapt to try to get it to work but still no luck, it just breaks my setInterval:
jQuery('body').on('click','#AddToCart', function(evt, cart) {

          timber.RightDrawer.open();

              $('#CartContainer').hover(function(ev){
                  clearInterval(myVar);
              }, function(ev){
                  myVar = setInterval(function(){
                  timber.RightDrawer.close();
                  clearInterval(myVar);
                  }, 3000);
              });
        });

A: I don't think this is a good approach, and as others have commented, there are some potential caveats with doing things the way you are doing them.
But, to answer the question, the JavaScript below appears to work as described.  It looks like your main issue was the fact that you were not setting the time interval after clicking the button; it was only being set after clicking the button AND after hovering and un-hovering the container.
Below, I have moved the delayed clearing to its own function (doDelayedClear()) to prevent duplicate code, and I call doDelayedClear() both when the button is clicked and when the mouse has hovered and un-hovered.
I have also added some calls to console.log() so that you can watch what is happening.
Demo:  http://jsfiddle.net/BenjaminRay/nb9tetLs/
JavaScript:
var myVar = null;

jQuery('body').on('click', '#AddToCart', function (evt, cart) {
    timber.RightDrawer.open();
    doDelayedClear();
    jQuery('#CartContainer').hover(function (ev) {
        console.log('hovering...');
        clearInterval(myVar);
    }, function (ev) {
        console.log('not hovering...');
        doDelayedClear();
    });
});

function doDelayedClear() {
    myVar = setInterval(function () {
        timber.RightDrawer.close();
        console.log('Set interval executed!');
        clearInterval(myVar);
    }, 3000);
}

With fall weather just around the corner, it's the perfect time to arrange the outside of your home with fall decorations. Sprucing up your replacement windows and doors with some fun DIY projects can be the perfect way to kick off the season and get in the mood for scarves, sweaters and pumpkin spice lattes.
This decoration will add fantastic curb appeal to your home's windows or doors, depending on where you would like to place the garland. Regardless of where it goes, all this project takes is a few straightforward steps: cut rope to your desired length (outlining your windows or door) with a few extra inches to get a droopy effect, and stick corn husks to the rope with a hot glue gun. Put up your new garland to highlight your home access points!
Mirror the warm, fall colors and incorporate them into a DIY wreath to put on your door. You'll need a wooden stick wreath, burlap, artificial fall foliage, scissors and a glue gun. Here is the process: Cut the burlap into four 4x4-inch squares. Then, fold and glue the burlap squares around the wreath while gluing foliage in between the burlap sections.
Make your home look warm and inviting this fall with a blackboard "Welcome" or "Happy Fall" sign on your door. Remind passersby what the season is really about and draw interest toward your festive fall entryway.
And while creating unique and colorful outdoor decorations is a simple way to get into the season spirit, don't forget to prepare your replacement doors and windows for the colder weather, too. They may look fantastic, but if your doors and windows are aged or unprepared for the approaching winter weather, they could let in cold drafts and leave you feeling cool in the upcoming months. Call our professionals at Pella Windows and Doors at 978-373-2500 or check out our showroom in Haverhill for all your replacement windows and door needs, or for more creative DIY fall project ideas.

Les avertissements sur les paquets de cigarettes sont des messages écrits sur les paquets de cigarettes et de tabac visant à informer les consommateurs des risques qu'ils prennent en consommant cette substance. En effet, le tabac peut avoir des effets graves sur la santé. La Convention-cadre de l'OMS pour la lutte antitabac recommande ces avertissements. Les avertissements varient en teneur et en taille suivant les pays.

Affichage suivant les zones géographiques

Australie
Les avertissements australiens consistent en plusieurs messages occupant 33 % de la face avant du paquet, toute la face arrière ainsi qu'une tranche sur le côté. La moitié supérieure de la face arrière contient une image choc, qui est rappelée sur la face avant ainsi qu'un slogan en lien avec la photo et un texte explicatif. Les teneurs en goudrons, nicotine et CO ont été supprimées car elles pouvaient donner à tort l'impression que certaines cigarettes étaient moins nocives que les autres.

Voici quelques exemples de slogans :
  (Fumer provoque le cancer du poumon)
  (Fumer crée une dépendance)
  (Fumer tue)
  (Fumer provoque des maladies cardiaques)
  (Fumer enceinte nuit à votre bébé)
  (Fumer peut nuire à votre entourage)
  (Fumer rend aveugle)

Depuis le , tous les paquets de cigarettes à la vente, quelle que soit la marque, sont désormais identiques (sans logo, ni marque). L'Australie est le premier pays au monde à avoir adopté cette législation qui a pour objectif, pour le gouvernement, de diminuer le nombre de fumeurs de 15 % de la population en 2012 à 10 % en 2018.

Canada

Le Canada est le précurseur des messages d'avertissement. Quatre messages ont été rendus obligatoires en 1989. Aujourd'hui, les emballages doivent comporter un message couvrant au moins 75 % de chacune des faces avant et arrière. Les slogans sont depuis 2001 accompagnés d'un visuel, généralement la photographie d'une lésion causée par le tabac.

Le Canada innove encore en ajoutant un dépliant informatif à l'intérieur du paquet, et en rendant obligatoire la mention non seulement du taux minimum de substances inhalées, mais aussi les valeurs maximales (pour prendre en compte les différentes façon d'inhaler la fumée chez les fumeurs) sous forme d'une fourchette plus réaliste, et en ajoutant (aux classiques taux de goudrons et nicotine) le monoxyde de carbone, et trois autres substances très toxiques : le méthanal, le benzène, et l'acide cyanhydrique (ou cyanure d'hydrogène).

États-Unis

  (Attention : fumer la cigarette peut être risqué pour votre santé) (1966)
  (L'Administrateur de la santé publique a déterminé que fumer la cigarette est dangereux pour votre santé) (1970)
  (Avertissement de l'Administrateur de la santé publique : Fumer provoque le cancer du poumon, les maladies cardiovasculaires, l'emphysème et des grossesses à complications)
 (Avertissement de l'Administrateur de la santé publique : Arrêter de fumer maintenant réduit les risques importants pour votre santé)
   (Avertissement de l'Administrateur de la santé publique : Fumer pendant la grossesse peut provoquer des malformations fœtales, un accouchement prématuré et un bas poids de naissance)
   (Avertissement de l'Administrateur de la santé publique : La fumée de cigarette contient du monoxyde de carbone)

Indonésie

  (Avertissement : les cigarettes arrachent mon bonheur un par un)
  (Avertissement : fumer cause le cancer du poumon)
  (Avertissement : fumer provoque le cancer de la bouche)
  (Avertissement : à cause du fumer, j'ai un cancer de la gorge)
  (SERVICE D'ARRÊT DE FUMER : 0800-177-6565)

Malaisie
  (Message du gouvernement de la Malaisie : fumer est dangereux pour la santé)

Union européenne

Les avertissements sur les paquets de cigarettes européens sont harmonisés. Ils doivent être inscrits en caractères gras, en noir sur fond blanc, entourés d'un cadre noir. L'avertissement doit occuper au moins 30 % de la surface du paquet sur l'avant, et 40 % sur l'arrière. Les quantités de nicotine, goudrons et monoxyde de carbone inhalés (pour un fumeur standard) doivent aussi être indiquées. La présence d'agents de texture, de conservateurs et d'arômes, sans autre précision, est également indiquée.

La réglementation est liée à la directive 2001/37/CE du 5 juin 2001 « relative au rapprochement des dispositions législatives, réglementaires et administratives des États membres en matière de fabrication, de présentation et de vente des produits du tabac ». Au 31 octobre 2004, la directive était transposée dans tous les États membres à l'exception de l'Estonie.

Parce que chaque année  décèdent de maladies liées au tabagisme et parce que l'habitude s'acquiert à un jeune âge , la directive 2014/40/UE du 3 avril 2014 cherche à rendre les produits du tabac moins attractifs auprès des jeunes.

En particulier, des images doivent couvrir 65 % de l'avant et de l'arrière du paquet et respecter des dimensions minimales.

Belgique
Parmi les précurseurs, on trouve la Belgique qui, tout comme la Grande-Bretagne a imposé depuis le premier décembre 2010, l'impression des images dissuasives pour les paquets de cigarettes vendus sur son territoire.

Depuis le , les paquets neutres sont arrivés en Belgique (Sans logo, paquet vert marron et la marque écrite en petit.)

  / Arrêter de fumer réduit les risques de maladies cardiaques et pulmonaires mortelles /
  / Fumer nuit gravement à votre santé et à celle de votre entourage /
  / Rauchen ist tödlich / Fumer tue.
  / Fumer provoque le cancer mortel du poumon /

Espagne
En Espagne, les avertissements sont précédés sur les deux faces du paquet de la mention « Las autoridades sanitarias advierten » (en français, « les autorités sanitaires avertissent »), écrite en noir sur blanc, au-dessus du cadre noir de l'avertissement normalisé.
 Sur le devant du paquet
  (Fumer peut tuer)
  (Fumer nuit gravement a votre santé et à celle de votre entourage)
 Au dos du paquet
   (Fumer raccourcit la vie)
   (Fumer provoque un cancer du poumon mortel)
   (Le tabac provoque l'addiction : ne commencez pas à fumer)
   (Fumer obstrue les artères et provoque cardiopathies et accidents vasculaires cérébraux)
   (Fumer provoque le vieillissement de la peau)
   (Faites-vous aider pour arrêter de fumer : consultez votre médecin ou votre pharmacien)
   (Fumer peut réduire l'afflux sanguin et provoquer l'impuissance)

France
 Sur le devant du paquet (près du tiers de la surface, encadré, en noir sur fond blanc)
 Fumer tue
 Fumer nuit gravement à votre santé et à celle de votre entourage
 Au dos du paquet (près de la moitié de la surface, encadré, en noir sur fond blanc)
 Les fumeurs meurent prématurément
 Fumer bouche les artères et provoque des crises cardiaques et des attaques cérébrales
 Fumer provoque le cancer mortel du poumon
 Fumer pendant la grossesse nuit à la santé de votre enfant
 Votre médecin ou votre pharmacien peuvent vous aider à arrêter de fumer
 Protégez les enfants : ne leur faites pas respirer votre fumée
 Fumer crée une forte dépendance, ne commencez pas
 Arrêter de fumer réduit les risques de maladies cardiaques et pulmonaires mortelles
 Fumer peut entraîner une mort lente et douloureuse
 Faites-vous aider pour arrêter de fumer, téléphonez au 3989 (15 ct/min)
 Fumer peut diminuer l'afflux sanguin et provoquer l'impuissance sexuelle
 Fumer provoque un vieillissement de la peau
 Fumer peut nuire aux spermatozoïdes et réduit la fertilité
 La fumée contient du benzène, des nitrosamines, du formaldéhyde et du cyanure d'hydrogène

L'arrêté du 15 avril 2010 pris par le ministère de la Santé français imposait aux fabricants de tabac d'imprimer une image dissuasive sur au moins 40 % de la surface arrière du paquet. À compter du 20 avril 2011, tous les paquets distribués en débit de tabac ont dû se conformer à cette réglementation.

14 avertissements sanitaires ont été sélectionnés et seront imprimés avec les « visuels chocs »

En réaction à cette loi, on a vu apparaitre début 2011 plusieurs initiatives proposant aux fumeurs de cacher ces images.

Depuis le , une mesure impose le paquet de cigarettes neutre. Les paquets sont désormais de couleur sombre, on retrouve un message différent sur les tranches latérales, une photo considérée comme choquante sur les deux faces, un message répliqué sur l'ouverture du paquet et en dessous de la photographie au dos.
 Sur les tranches (près du tiers de la surface, encadré en noir sur fond blanc)
 Fumer tue
 La fumée de tabac contient plus de 70 substances cancérigènes.

 Sur le capuchon (toute la surface, respectivement en blanc sur fond noir et noir sur fond jaune)
 Votre fumée est dangereuse pour vos enfants, votre famille et vos amis

Suède
La Suède suit aujourd'hui la législation européenne mais des messages sur les risques encourus par les fumeurs étaient déjà présents sur les paquets de cigarettes dès 1993 soit deux ans avant son adhésion à l'Union européenne. Sur la majeure partie des paquets, on retrouve les mêmes messages qu'en France. Les plus courants étant:
  (Fumer tue)
 . (Fumer nuit gravement à votre santé et à celle de votre entourage)
 . (Faites-vous aider à arrêter de fumer: renseignez-vous auprès de votre médecin, votre pharmacien ou en appelant le 020-84 00 00).

Islande

Les avertissements occupent une partie de la face avant du paquet, en caractères gras, en noir sur fond blanc entourés d'un cadre noir. Les plus courants sont :

  (« Fumer tue »)
  (« Fumer provoque le cancer mortel du poumon »)
  (« Fumer est très nocif pour toi et pour ton entourage »)
 (« Fumer pendant la grossesse nuit à ton enfant »)
  (« Fumer accélère le vieillissement de la peau »)
  (« Fumer obstrue les artères et provoque l'infarctus du myocarde et des accidents vasculaires cérébraux »)

Royaume-Uni
En 1971, deux ans avant son adhésion à l'Union européenne, par les médécins chefs du Département de la Santé :
 Sur la côté gauche du paquet
  (« Avertissement par le gouvernement de Sa Majesté, Fumer peut gravement endommager votre santé »)
En 1991, selon la législation européenne, l'avertissement fut modifié :
 Face avant et face arrière du paquet
  (« Le tabac gravement endommage la santé »)
Les mentions courants sont similaires à la France, en anglais, malgré le fait que le Royaume-Uni n'est plus un pays de l'Union européenne :
 Face avant (30 %)

 Face arrière (40 % de la surface)

Russie
 Mention principale
  (Avertissement du Ministère Russe de la Santé Publique : Fumer est dangereux pour la santé)

 Mentions complémentaires

Welcome to GraceAliveTV.org, the Grace Alive television ministry website! Grace Alive TV Ministries is a non-profit teaching ministry affiliated with Grace Bible Fellowship of San Diego County for those who are already Christian believers: in other words, for those who believe that Christ's death and resurrection are all that is required to save them from the penalty of their sins (1 Corinthians 15:1-4).
We invite you to study the Scriptures with us by means of topical and book studies to determine what the Word of God says. Since we are no longer under Law, but rather under Grace (Romans 6:14), this ministry is designed to provide Bible teaching concerning grace living principles in the Christian life, emphasizing the doctrine of grace living rather than law and legalism.
Since the only source for spiritual understanding, growth and victory is accurate and careful analysis of the Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16-17), we offer our fellowship studies publicly free of charge either via DVDs by mail or online at Google Video.
Find out more about how we see Scripture and how we do our analysis and interpretation. We explain our view of the Word and our understanding of it on our Views page.

This Is the Remix — сборник ремиксов американской R&B группы Destiny's Child, выпущен 8 марта 2002 года, дебютировал на 29 позиции Billboard 200. Диск состоит из смеси R&B и танцевальных ремиксов, записанных в период с 1997 по 2002 год.

Об альбоме
В This Is the Remix собраны наиболее популярные ремиксы Destiny's Child (и некоторые бонусные треки). Он отличается тем, что в него входят перепетые ремиксы (чего большинство артистов, за исключением Destiny's Child и Мэрайи Кэри, не делают).

Альбом не полностью состоит из R&B ремиксов, в него входят танцевальные ремиксы Мориса Джошуа и бонусные треки, которые нельзя точно определить к танцевальному или R&B жанру. Диск содержит смешанный ремикс «Jumpin' Jumpin'», в котором смешаны So So Def Remix и Jumpin Retro Mix. Этот особый эксклюзив только для этого альбома, он также содержит вокал Мишель Уильямс и Фарры Франклин. В бонусные треки входит и «Independent Women (Part II)», которая задумывалась как продолжение песни, но, по иронии судьбы, была написана до «Independent Women (Part I)». Альбом заканчивается первым синглом Мишель Уильямс «Heard A Word» под музыку саксофона, которая впоследствии была убрана для альбомной версии.

Успехи в чартах
Альбом был задуман как передышка для фанатов Destiny's Child. Он был довольно успешным на фоне волны популярности ремиксов в 2002 году (который начался с альбома ремиксов Дженнифер Лопес в 2002 году). Это альбом дебютировал на 29 позиции в Billboard 200, проданный в количестве более 37000 экземпляров в первую неделю, но только после семи недель, альбом, который особо и не рекламировался, покинул чарты, на сегодняшний день в США продано по оценкам около 100000 экземпляров. Лучший старт был в Новой Зеландии, где он дебютировал на 8 позиции чартов: это единственная страна, где он вошёл в первую десятку.

PRESS RELEASE: Researchers develop first international standards for quality of life measurement in cancerfrince2022-10-05T08:27:40+01:00
PRESS RELEASE: Researchers develop first international standards for quality of life measurement in cancer
31st January 2020 – BY MARY RICE
For the first time, recommendations for the analysis of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in cancer clinical trials have been developed by an international group of experts. The recommendations will help to determine more consistent and comparable Quality of Life (QoL) results from clinical trials.
In a paper1 published in The Lancet Oncology today [30 Jan 2020], the international SISAQOL2 consortium, led by Dr Andrew Bottomley, EORTC Assistant Director and Head of the Quality of Life Department, EORTC, Brussels, Belgium, together with colleagues from 10 countries, set out their blueprint for achieving consistent, standardised PRO reporting. Cancer patients' own reporting of their QoL is an important factor in understanding treatment risks, benefits, and tolerability, they say.
Although some standards already existed for assessing QoL in trial protocols, there was previously no unified approach to analysing the data obtained in trials. Hence, in the past, very similar trials may have reported different results. The adoption of these new standards will mean that results from trials that measure QoL will be more reliable and consistently conducted and that the direct benefits for patients will be clearly seen.
"The SISAQOL consortium includes all the major players in cancer QoL; PRO experts, statisticians, regulators (including the EMA and FDA), and representatives from international academic societies, industry, cancer institutes, and patient organisations. "For the first time it has been possible to get all these people together and achieve agreement on the best practices and standards", says Dr Bottomley, "and we are delighted that we have done it."
"These new guidelines will be invaluable to everyone planning, conducting and analysing clinical trials and will set new standards for academic and industry researchers to follow", said a co-author of the publication, Dr Ingolf Griebsch, responsible for Market Access Oncology at Boehringer Ingelheim. Dr Dan O'Connor, a co-author from the UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) said: "Heterogeneity in how PROs are measured and analysed has hampered the utility of PRO data. The output from the SISAQOL initiative provides an important first step towards fostering a more scientifically rigorous approach to PRO measures"
The consortium's recommendations will enable standardised analyses of PROs in randomised controlled trials of cancer treatments. In addition to benefiting patients, doctors, and regulators, this will also help to ensure that limited research resources are not wasted, the researchers say. The new guidelines are already being disseminated extensively, and a new, larger consortium is being set up to monitor their use in the future and to develop more detailed standards.
"Although our standardised guidelines were developed specifically for cancer, we think that the majority of them could be used elsewhere," says Dr Bottomley. "QoL is important for everyone, and we hope that researchers and patients across other disease areas will adapt them to their particular fields."
"SISAQOL's work highlights the vital importance of including PROs in all cancer research studies and will also help ensure that the issues which really matter to patients, and significantly impact them, are part of treatment decision-making in a much more consistent and accurate manner," commented co-author Kathy Oliver, Chair of the International Brain Tumour Alliance.

General and restorative dentistry involves the diagnosis of all problems relating to the health and function of the smile, including the treatment and repair of broken, infected, or otherwise damaged teeth, gums, and tissue. General dentists serve as the primary care provider for their patients, managing their oral health care needs and coordinating treatment with specialists when necessary.
The following is a brief description of dental health issues that fall under the heading of general and restorative dentistry. Click on the links for more in-depth information about each subject.
Dental Bridges: For one or more missing teeth, dental bridges literally "bridge the gap" between remaining teeth, stabilizing the jaw by surrounding those teeth with attractive crowns.
Dental Crowns: When a tooth is severely damaged or decayed, dental crowns act as a protective cover, strengthening the tooth and reinforcing the jaw.
Dental Fillings: Metal or tooth-colored dental fillings restore teeth that have been damaged by tooth decay or injury. Each type of filling has its advantages and drawbacks.
Dental Implants: An ideal solution for patients missing teeth. Implants are permanently set in the jaw and affixed with replacement teeth, preventing painful shifting in the mouth.
Dentures: Replacing one or more teeth is easier than ever before with the multitude of denture alternatives available to patients. Dentures are now more comfortable and affordable than ever before.
Full-Mouth Reconstruction: Patients with severe dental problems often require a full-mouth reconstruction. Dentists performing full-mouth reconstructions often draw on both cosmetic and restorative dentistry solutions to improve the health, function, and appearance of the smile.
Gum Disease: Periodontal disease is characterized by swollen, tender, or bleeding gums. Both early and advanced periodontal disease can be treated with both surgical and non-surgical therapy.
Inlays and Onlays: Inlays and onlays are dental restorations that can treat mild to moderate tooth decay that is affecting the cusps or the indented ridges between the cusps of the teeth.
Root Canal: Infected tissues in the tooth pulp can cause severe pain and eventually lead to tooth loss. Root canal therapy is designed to remove infected tissue with the goal of saving the tooth.
TMJ Treatment: A misaligned bite, bruxism (teeth grinding), and other factors can put stress on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). TMJ disorders can be the source of a variety of painful symptoms, from headaches to ear and neck pain.
Family dental practices offer restorative dentistry services geared toward adults as well as preventative care for children. The general dentists who operate these practices are trained to diagnose and treat patients of all ages. They often manage the family's care, and when necessary, refer them to specialists for more involved orthodontic or restorative dentistry treatment.
If you would like to speak with a general dentist about restorative dentistry treatment for you or your family, DocShop can help you find a professional in your area.

FLOW SEALS PARAMETERS ANALYSIS FOR ROTORS
M. A. K. Benalouach, A. Sahli and S. Sahli
( Received: May 31, 2017 – Accepted in Revised Form: April 28, 2018 )
Abstract The interaction of work fluid mechanics with that of the rotary system itself, basically composed of axes, bearings and rotors, is performed by inserting equivalent dynamic coefficients in the mathematical model of the rotor, the latter being obtained by the finite element method. In this paper, the dynamic coefficients of inertia, stiffness and damping of the flat seals analyzed here are evaluated, from the point of view of the dependence of the geometric characteristics of the seals and the operating conditions of the machine. Then, once incorporated into the entire rotating system model, the flow seals are also analyzed from the point of view of their influence on the overall dynamic response of the rotating machine. The mechanical seals of the cylindrical, conical and stepped type were analyzed, determining, for this purpose, the dynamic coefficients of damping, stiffness and inertia. In addition, the influence of physical and operational parameters of the system in relation to these elements were verified. Therefore, the modeling and analysis of flow seals are inserted in an interesting and promising way in the context of the global research theme in rotary machines.

Q: C++ array with randomly placed 1s With C++, I'm trying to create an array of size 10201, with 50 1s randomly placed and zeros everywhere else.
I'm sure its simple but I'm new to C++!!
Thanks.

A: It's actually quite simple.
Initialize the array with 50 1s on the first positions and the rest with 0s. Then use  std::random_shuffle std::shuffle on the whole array.

Q: Exporting and reformatting data out of MS Excel I have a huge Excel spreadsheet containing telephone calling rates to a number of different countries.
The format of the columns is:
Country, RateLocality, Prefixes, Rate, Wholesale
e.g.
Afganistan, Default, 93;930;931;9321;9322;9323;9324;9325;9326;9327;9328;9329;9331;9332;9333;9334;9335;9336;9337;9338;9339;9341;9342;9343;9344;9345;9346;9347;9348;9349;9351;9352;9353;9354;9355;9356;9357;9358;9359;9361;9362;9363;9364;9365;9366;9367;9368;9369;9371;9372;9373;9374;9376;938;939;
$  1.023, $0.455
These rates change every so often and I need to get them into another system that can import them using CSV.
The eventual format is:
LD PREPEND CODE ie. 00 or 011,CountryCode,Area Code,Comment,Connect Cost,Included Seconds,Per Minute Cost,Pricelist,Increment
So to convert that above line I'd have
00,"Afganistan",93,"Default",1.023,60,1.023,10
00,"Afganistan",931,"Default",1.023,60,1.023,10
...
00,"Afganistan",939,"Default",1.023,60,1.023,10
Where 00, 60 and 10 are hard coded and merged with the other data from excel.
How can I export this data into the required format given that I need to reformat it as it goes.
Should I export to XML and use XSLT or some other process to massage the data into CSV?
If that is the case, how do I do it simply and quickly.

A: You could use VBA to write the data to a new workbook then save as CSV. Something like this:
Sub ConvertRates()

    Dim strCountry As String
    Dim strRateLocality As String
    Dim strCodes As String
    Dim dblRate As Double
    Dim dblWholesale As Double
    Dim vntCodes As Variant
    Dim i As Integer
    Dim lngRow As Long

    Dim rngData As Range
    Dim rngRow As Range
    Dim wks As Worksheet
    Dim wkbkNew As Workbook
    Dim wksNew As Worksheet

    Set wks = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
    Set rngData = wks.Range("A2:B3")

    Application.Workbooks.Add
    Set wkbkNew = ActiveWorkbook
    Set wksNew = ActiveSheet

    lngRow = 1

    For Each rngRow In rngData.Rows
        strCountry = wks.Cells(rngRow.Row, 1).Value
        strRateLocality = wks.Cells(rngRow.Row, 2).Value
        strCodes = wks.Cells(rngRow.Row, 3).Value
        dblRate = wks.Cells(rngRow.Row, 4).Value
        dblWholesale = wks.Cells(rngRow.Row, 5).Value
        vntCodes = Split(strCodes, ";")

        For i = 0 To UBound(vntCodes)
            If vntCodes(i) <> "" Then
                wksNew.Cells(lngRow, 1).Value = "'00"
                wksNew.Cells(lngRow, 2).Value = strCountry
                wksNew.Cells(lngRow, 3).Value = vntCodes(i)
                wksNew.Cells(lngRow, 4).Value = strRateLocality
                wksNew.Cells(lngRow, 5).Value = dblRate
                wksNew.Cells(lngRow, 6).Value = 60
                wksNew.Cells(lngRow, 7).Value = dblRate
                wksNew.Cells(lngRow, 8).Value = 10
                lngRow = lngRow + 1
            End If
        Next i

    Next rngRow

End Sub

You will probably need an if statement to determine whether you want to write '00 or '011, and obviously change the code to use the relevant worksheet and range.
I haven't built in a lot of testing, other than the check to make sure that the code is not empty, as you seem to have a semi-colon at the end of your code list, but you may wish to do a bit more checking before writing the data to the new workbook.

A: I don't see why you wouldn't use file->save as, changing the format to csv and modifying the csv with a script afterwards. Most scripting languages have nice tools for reading in CSV files and modifying them (R, python, etc)

Juneteenth 2022: Demanding a Third Radical Reconstruction of U.S. capitalism / by John Bachtell
Posted byCP(M) June 18, 2022 June 18, 2022 Posted inUNCATEGORIZEDTags:Capitalism, Inequality, militarism, poverty, Racism, Third Reconstruction
The Revs. William Barber and Liz Theoharis at the head of a march led by the Poor People's Campaign. | Poor People's Campaign
Tens of thousands are descending on Washington, D.C. for the historic, multiracial "Moral March on Washington and to the Polls." The march occurs during the Juneteenth Holiday weekend and the growing battle to preserve and extend U.S. constitutional democracy.
The march, called by the Poor People's Campaign, aims to mobilize the nation's 140 million Black, Brown, and white poor and low-wage workers, and to unite, organize, and activate this potentially powerful force in coalition with others to remake U.S. society, the economy, and democracy from top to bottom.
Such a force could be decisive for the upcoming midterm elections. At stake is the people's ability to shape the nation's future for the benefit of all, our Constitutional democracy, the lives and rights of our people, and the existence of planet Earth.
Juneteenth celebrates the Emancipation of enslaved African Americans in 1863. This tradition of observance and celebration dates back to 1866 and is deeply rooted in African American culture and history.
The adoption of Juneteenth as a federal holiday by a Democratic majority Congress and president reflected the victory of a broad pro-democratic, multiracial, anti-racist coalition of forces that ousted the most openly racist administration in 100 years. It demonstrates the strength and level of African American equality and anti-racist movements to advance a multiracial democracy and is a dramatic validation of the premise that elections have consequences.
But the Moral March and Juneteenth celebration also occur against the backdrop of the ongoing attempted coup by Trump, his billionaire allies, the insurrectionist Republican Party, and the far-right and fascist movements so vividly captured during the nationally televised hearing of the January 6 Select Committee.
These forces are determined to achieve in 2022 and 2024 what they failed to accomplish in 2020. Their ascension to power would open the door to the complete rollback and likely violent repression of all democratic rights. They aim to restore unchallenged white supremacist minority rule, eliminate the peaceful transfer of power, and impose permanent governance by the fascist Republican Party.
The fight to mobilize the majority of Americans to isolate and defeat these forces to preserve and expand democracy is growing.
The Rev. William Barber III and Rev. Liz Theoharris, co-leaders of the Poor People's Campaign and the June 18 march, are among those who view the current drive to defend and expand democratic rights as part of what is referred to as a Third Reconstruction in the U.S. They view it as a radical remaking of U.S. society, politics, and economy to benefit all.
Emancipation and the First Reconstruction
The First Radical Reconstruction era followed Emancipation, the second great American Revolution, and lasted from 1867 to 1876. Together, these two events marked the most significant advance for democracy in U.S. history. It was a recognition that the U.S. could never be fully democratic if African Americans were not entirely equal in every respect.
A multiracial coalition exercising federal political power, with the newly emancipated playing a leading role, drove the revolutionary social and economic reforms that ensued. The goal was to radically remake or reconstruct the nation from the grassroots to reflect its founding ideals, proclaimed on paper but not yet in practice.
During Reconstruction, Black political representation radically expanded. Over 600 African Americans were elected to state legislatures and Congress. New state constitutions were adopted in the former Confederate states proclaiming equality. The new state governments extended public education and distributed land and other economic resources to the emancipated. It was also an era of a general expansion of worker's rights, and these advances favorably impacted the lives of white workers and their families, too.
With the passage of the 15th Amendment, droves of Black men went to the polls to exercise their newly recognized right to vote. In this 'Harper's Weekly' print, Black men of various occupations wait patiently for their turn as the first voter submits his ballot. | Alfred R. Waud, "The First Vote," November 1867 / Library of Congress
Reconstruction Amendments to the U.S. Constitution accompanied legislative advances and were a codification of the expansion of democratic rights. The revolutionary 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments abolished slavery and involuntary servitude (except in cases of incarceration), guaranteed citizenship, equal protection under the law, and voting rights (but only to men).
No sooner were these laws passed than the ruling forces comprising the old slavocracy began to mobilize to regain their power and reverse the revolutionary democratic gains. After only a decade, the old slavocracy defeated Reconstruction and the multiracial fusion coalition that won it.
From its beginnings, U.S. capitalism thrived on the exploitation of humanity, most brutally represented by the system of slavery. Despite the gains of Reconstruction, the systemic racism that was rooted in the capitalist system reasserted its power.
Employing open racial terror and racial division and allying with ruling elites nationally, the old slavocracy overthrew the Reconstruction governments. African Americans were disenfranchised and removed from political office, their newly accumulated wealth stolen or destroyed. The new state governments adopted Black codes to suppress African American rights and impose segregation and a brutal racial hierarchy.
The open racial terror and violent repression of African American rights, including lynch terror and imposition of Jim Crow segregation, lasted some 70 years and drove over six million African Americans to escape the sweltering oppression of the South during the Great Migration. Capitalism's systemic racism ensured the existence and continuation of systemic poverty throughout the country in the decades that followed and right up through the present day.
Civil Rights Revolution and the Second Reconstruction
The mass Civil Rights movement crushed this fascist terror and broke the back of Jim Crow segregation. The Civil Rights Revolution, which many call the Second Reconstruction, resulted in landmark legal and legislative victories from Brown v. Board to civil, voting, and housing rights.
But the movement, rooted in the African American freedom struggle, came to reflect a broad multiracial movement for democracy. It helped spur historic democratic uprisings for the rights of Mexican Americans, Native Americans, women, LGBTQ people, immigrants, and disabled persons and for peace and the environment.
But the forces of white supremacy, the corporate ruling class, and reactionary elements never accepted this remaking of America and expansion of democratic rights, as incomplete as it was. Like the First Reconstruction, the Second Reconstruction also sparked a racist ruling class backlash. The result was a suppression of the movement, particularly the African American freedom movement, including the assassination of its leaders.
Central to this reactionary backlash was the rise of the new American extreme-right coalition backed by the most reactionary sectors of corporate America, which aims to dismantle the newly gained rights for equality. But its more significant aim is to impose white minority corporate rule and undo all social gains. These include worker and social rights won during the New Deal era, including union rights, Social Security, and other social progress. Just like the old slavocracy, they aim to destroy U.S. Constitutional democracy.
It took a Second Reconstruction, led by the Civil Rights Movement, to break the back of Jim Crow segregation and realize voting rights and greater democracy. But those gains have been under intense threat for more than 40 years. | Library of Congress
March for the Third Reconstruction
Our country's multiracial working class and people have been in an epic battle with these reactionary forces since the 1980s. While the far-right and fascist movements and institutions, including right-wing mass media, have grown, so too have the mass movements for political and economic democracy.
Among the many gains recorded was the election of the nation's first African American president, Barack Obama, whose campaign was based on fusion multiracial coalition politics. "Obama's election represents the possibility of a Third Reconstruction," Rev. Barber has said.
The new multiracial electorate that elected Obama, growing demographic changes, advances for racial, women's, LGBTQ, and disability equality, and its growing unity and power scares corporate ruling forces and those influenced by white male supremacy and fear of societal change.
The backlash to these recent gains has been fierce and relentless, beginning with Republican passage of voter suppression legislation across the South but now extending to the denial of abortion rights, attacks on union rights, and creating a public health crisis from the flood of guns in our streets.
Efforts to break up the multiracial electorate and roll back the rights of African Americans, Latinos, and other people of color and slow down and reverse the demographic shifts immediately followed Obama's election victory. The far-right also mobilized against the rights labor, women, immigrants, and the LGBTQ community.
The backlash gave rise to the MAGA fascist movement and ultimately the election of Trump, the imposition of an extreme-right-wing majority on the U.S. Supreme Court, and the passage of further voter suppression and election subversion laws to permanently institutionalize Republican rule.
But the mobilization of the forces to defeat Trump and defend U.S. Constitutional democracy has expanded the possibilities to expand democratic rights for a Third Radical Reconstruction. If mobilized, a democratic majority of Americans can exercise political power to address poverty and income disparity from the bottom up, address racial and gender inequality, avert the ecological and climate crises, and demilitarize the economy and society. "A Third Reconstruction to revive our moral and political commitment to democracy" is what must happen, says Rep. Barbara Lee.
U.S. capitalism, particularly its most reactionary sectors, is responsible for the massive economic, racial, and gender disparities that plague U.S. society and for the gun violence, militarization, and environmental threats that threaten life on this planet. As Rev. Barber noted, "Forty-three percent of people—over 140 million—live in poverty or are low income. 52% of our children live in poverty. And the Federal budget is just as immoral—$700 billion for defense and $700 billion for everything else. During COVID, billionaires made $2 trillion more and eight million more people fell into poverty. That's ridiculous!"
The fight to end poverty, save the environment, demilitarize the economy, and defend and radically reform U.S. Constitutional democracy are all intertwined. A Third Reconstruction fulfills the hope of Juneteenth, the spirit of "Sí, se puede," and the vision of "This land is your land, This land is our land."
So wherever you are this Juneteenth weekend—whether it's Washington, D.C., with the thousands of people mobilized by the Poor People's Campaign, or in your own hometown—march for equality, justice, and democracy. And on Election Day, march again to the polls to cast your vote. March for the Third Reconstruction that our nation needs.

The fungus, in yellow. The root, in gray.
Exchanges of nutrients between the Gigaspora gigantea fungus and the host plant take place deep inside the plant's roots.
How does the fungus manage this?
In beige, the appressorium. In yellow, the root's cells.
When it contacts a root's surface, the fungus forms a sort of suction pad called an appressorium. The plant quickly reacts.
The epidermal cells prepare to be penetrated. Their nuclei react to the chemical signals from the fungus and surround it with a special compartment.
The fungus easily traverses the cells and makes its way to the root's inner bark.
Once the fungus reaches the inner cells, it goes into the spaces between the cells. The adjacent cells react to its presence and let it in.
Gigaspora has succeeded. These colonized cells are in direct contact with the endoderm.
The endoderm controls exchanges of nutrients between the root's bark and its conducting tissues.
Around the round nucleus, the arbuscules.
Inside these cells, the fungus forms ramifications that increase the surface for exchanges between the partners.
It is here, inside these arbuscules, that nutrients are exchanged. In exchange for glucose, the fungus provides the plant with water and minerals extracted from the soil.
Many trees establish mycorrhizal symbioses such as barrel medic's that was shown here.

I lived in Liverpool for 12 years. During this time, which I began as an undergraduate student and ended interviewing the cast of Hollyoaks (that's higher education for you), I stayed in accommodation that moved sequentially further away from the city centre.
I found myself eventually living next to a disused railway line.
I stayed, not surprisingly, for as long as I could.
I discovered the line after I discovered the property. I hadn't yet got into the habit of sizing up a place to live based on its distance from the nearest railway (operational or otherwise). It pains me to admit I didn't have a clue at first why the line was there. It looked to me like a footpath. In fact, it was – and still is – a footpath. Formally, it's part of National Cycle Network Route 62. Informally, it's the old Liverpool Loop Line, which used to connect a string of suburbs and villages clustering along the city's hem.
I visited it again recently with my friends Robert and Scott, who's blogged about our trip. It was the first time either of them had seen the line – which, given they both live in Merseyside, I naturally declared to be a disgrace. Connoisseurs of railways, and they'd never set foot on the Liverpool Loop?
Scott mentioned how he'd been unwilling to visit it alone, for fear of running into mobs of teenagers drinking in the afternoon while holding big dogs and the like. This was a fair point, though I replied I'd never encountered any bother in all the time I used it as a local resident.
Then I remembered that I'd only really used it for going jogging, not strolling. And then I remembered one incident when a bloke on a bike approached me from the opposite direction, calling out that I should turn back because of a "bunch of kids doing drugs back there". Obviously I kept this anecdote to myself. Until now.
But that was the one and only case of the jitters I could recall from being a Loop Line regular between 2003 and 2006. I came to really value its presence, sometimes venturing all the way from my flat in Childwall down to the parkland near Halewood, where the path nudges up against open fields and you can see all the way across to Cheshire.
This was my second return visit since leaving Liverpool. My first was in 2008. The line had barely changed. This time was different. Things had been tidied up a bit. Traces of the path's former identity were less evident. This sign, for instance, that was still present in 2008, has now vanished:
From when must that have dated? The 1970s? Earlier?
The line was still open for goods traffic as late as 1979. The last chunk closed for passengers in 1972, though one station, Childwall, was mothballed as far back as 1931.
That would have been my local station. I'd have been two minutes from the platform. What a difference it would have made to my relationship with the city centre. Instead of a 40-minute bus ride on the number 79, I could have been there in half the time – and in a whole better mood.
For I'd grown rather distant from Liverpool towards the end of my stay there, both literally and emotionally. The place was changing in the mid-noughties in ways I didn't properly appreciate or fully understand. Typically, the minute I moved right away from Merseyside, I began to miss it and wanted to be closer again.
Walking the Loop Line again brought all this to the surface. I pushed it back down and concentrated on speculating with my companions about which bits of bridge dated from what period. Well, it was that or get rather melancholy. I was glad I had some company.
There was one thing about the line that I realised only because I'd moved away. The footpath is in a pretty decent state compared to others of its kind I've seen.
It's certainly better maintained than some of disused railways lines I've walked along in London. Stretches of the Parkland Walk, for instance, are basically just mud. You have to trudge over grass, down ditches and almost through someone's garden to follow the route of the old Mill Hill east branch of the Northern line. And checking out the former Croxley branch of the Metropolitan line involves, essentially, trespassing.
But here, everything is tarmac and landscaping and only a bit of overgrown undergrowth. What you've lost in anachronistic signage you've gained in a clinical brush-up.
Some might find this regrettable. I for one prefer a footpath to actually look like one.
I suggested to the others that it'd be good to nip off the path from time to time; I remembered there were little bulletins of nostalgia lurking in the suburbs and hoped they were still there.
They were.
Dotted among the locations used occasionally by the Hollyoaks production team for non-specific street scenes, railway workers' houses remain standing.
These (pictured right) are on Well Lane, the site of the former Childwall station, and presumably date back to its construction in the 1870s.
Other cottages built for the same purpose still exist in Gateacre and, at the end of the "line", in Halewood and Hunts Cross.
A part of me wishes I could one day live in a railway cottage or on a road named Railway Approach.
Another part of me tries to make sure the first part keeps itself to itself.
This slight return to a slice of my past reminded me, to my shame, that there's a whole other section of the line I have never seen. In the dozen years I lived in Liverpool, I could never be bothered to find out what happens along the rest of the footpath, as it curves northwards from Childwall up through Knotty Ash and West Derby to Aintree.
More unfinished business, then. Not that I need a reason to keep visiting the north-west. The only good thing about leaving is getting to experience the excitement of going back.

Emilie Palmelund works with sculpture, drawing and installations. The Berlin-based artist's sculptures are influenced by pop culture and sci-fi, with their eerie, anthropomorphic appearance—like a weird coalescence of Masaaki Yuasa's cute body horror, Mark Fisher's hauntology, Ursula K. Le Guin's world-building and Wong Kar-wai's intimate story telling. While living in Stockholm, Emilie has been a part of organizing a yearly group show taking place on a frozen lake at uttran.org. Recently, she showed her piece "Laughing Sleeper" at the newly opened and acclaimed exhibition space, Accelerator, also in Stockholm.
Oli XL is an experimental musician who has slowly become a key voice in the leftfield club sphere. Appearing in compilations such as PAN's "Mono No Aware", the Stockholm-based producer vastly expanded the world of his already distinguished sound with the release of his debut album "Rogue Intruder, Soul Enhancer" last year, to critical acclaim. With a dissected freehand approach to the rhythms of the UK rave continuum, fragmented sampling techniques are paired with personalized field recordings and processed vocals, resulting in a bizarre but emotionally-rich musical universe, recalling Basement Jaxx as much as humorless glitch. Oli XL has since then honed in on the album's pop sensibility with a vocal-driven live show that has taken him around Europe, playing venues such as Tate Modern, while working on his second album, set for release early next year.

Following the overblown controversy of his superhero casting, Ben Affleck is retreating to the soothing sanctuary of his own personal Batcave: some sort of Boston crime drama. Variety has confirmed Affleck is headed to television, partnering with Moonlighting creator Glenn Gordon Caron for Fox's The Middle Man. Caron is writing the pilot, and Affleck is now attached to direct, picking a pretty easy lob for his debut on the medium. Set in the 1960s, the series centers on FBI agent Rudy MacAteer, a Bostonian "tasked with taking down the Mafia." I hope he wins!
