Adhaalath Party leader Sheikh Imran Abdulla was found guilty of terrorism and sentenced to 12 years in prison last night over the following speech he gave at a mass anti-government rally in Malé on May 1, 2015.
To bring an end to brutality. To bring an end to brutality. To all the courageous, honourable and dear Maldivian heroes gathered here on the 1st of May, may the peace, mercy and blessings of Allah be upon you.
Yes, we have gathered here to bring an end to brutality. Why are we all here? Why are we here? Look Ahmed Adeeb! Look Ahmed Adeeb! We are gathered here. We are gathered here to bring an end to brutality.We are gathered here to bring an end to brutality.
Yes, [Hussain] Humam spoke the truth. Humam spoke the truth. Human said both President [Abdulla] Yameen and Ahmed Adeeb would know the people who murdered Dr Afrasheem best. Both of them would know. Yes, these two people are the most brutal two people in this country. We all stand against this brutality. To bring an end to this brutality. Are you people ready? Are you ready? Do you have the courage? Are you ready?
None of you must step back, none of you must step back, with courage step forward, yes! This country of ours, our dear nation has with the blessings of Allah been a free, independent, proud, honourable, benevolent and peaceful country since 2,500 years ago. That was how we maintained our country. This country is moving forward in that way. It is a duty of you dear citizens to deliver this country in that way to our future generations. It is a duty of you dear citizens to deliver this country in that way.
Are you ready to do that? Are you ready? Are you ready to do that? Yes! This country, we have to deliver this country to our future generations. Shall I say? We had to come until this day, we had to come until this day, brutality – we have no means of saving ourselves from a brutal government. I speak to President Yameen. In order to bring President Yameen's government, I worked extremely hard (He paused due to a large sound). In order to bring the government, we worked extremely hard. And after that we worked extremely hard in order to maintain the government in a good way.
As a responsibility of my own, I showed the government every possible path. I assisted the government. I tried to move forward with the government. Yes, this work, one after the other, events unravelled and upon the case of Colonel [Mohamed] Nazim I knew, I was sure, this government did not have a single good intention. Not a single bit of sincerity. No kindness for the citizens. No compassion for the citizens. No spirit of moving forward with the citizens, no ambition.
Yes! From this moment onwards, after studying Colonel Nazim's case, I knew with great clarity the truth behind this case. No doubt, this was the doing of both Ahmed Adeeb and Hussein Waheed. Yes today, you all must put an end to the doings of these two people. Must send these two people home, alright? Yes, Ahmed Adeeb and, Ahmed Adeeb and Hussein Waheed, all legal procedures required must be followed with respect to them and the responsibility of it all is on your heads. Are you ready?
We are informing very clearly. We are informing very clearly, be it President Yameen, Ahmed Adeeb or Hussein Waheed, we will not inflict any harm. We are not hurtful people. We are people against brutality. We came out against brutality. Therefore, no matter how serious an offender he or she is, God willingly they will suffer no harm from us. We will not harm. But, we are people who will deliver rights. People who will uphold rights on this ground. People who will deliver justice. We will obtain rights. Are you people ready? Are you people ready? Yes, it is in your hands alright?
Yes! Today we had to come this far, today, it has been roughly more than 2 years since the murder of our Dr. Afrasheem, being roughly 2 years, according to what Humam said, President Yameen and Ahmed Adeeb know best. Until today, President Yameen has sincerely done nothing to investigate and solve Dr. Afrasheem's case. As a result, when the blood of our citizens are being shed, a leader who would not uphold the rights of the blood spilled is not a leader who can stay alright? Such a person wouldn't stay alright?
From now on, President Yameen can continue to stay on, only after he comes to the table with us. He will be watching now. I'm saying. Keep courage within yourselves. Keep courage. President Yameen – we do not want to govern. We do not want to topple the government. We do not want anyone's government. Nevertheless, we want to obtain rights for the innocent blood that has been spilled. We will do that today God willingly. We will do that today with the blessings of Allah.
Yes! We have witnessed, we have witnessed, the Rilwan who we can see from here. Yes Rilwan, until today, the police have been unable to provide any information on whatever happened to Rilwan. The Police do know what happened. The Police do know what happened. There are reports at the Police. The investigation is at the Police. But, this brutal government, Ahmed Adeeb and Hussein Waheed have withheld these reports. There shall be no room for this from today onwards. From today onwards, there shall be no room for this God willingly. If Allah Almighty wills. From today onwards, there shall be no room to withhold these reports. We receive different news, according to what some people say, he has been chopped up and put into a sack, according to some others, he has been sunk into the depths of the ocean. The truth behind this needs to be revealed by the police.
Yes! In relation to Dr. Afrasheem, roughly 7 people related to Dr. Afrasheem were killed and fallen onto this ground. What is the reality that Yameen knows? On the day Yameen repeatedly spoke out from his own tongue and convicted Humam, he said that it would easier to find the real murderers once Human had been sentenced to the death penalty. Here it is in my hands. Here are the documents alright? I have all the documents in my hands. Since there is no time today…Here they are alright? Dear Maldivian citizens. Here they are alright? Here are the documents… for these rights. Behind this is, Hussein
Behind this is, Hussein Wahee – Hussein Waheed and, Hussein Waheed and, Hussein Waheed and Adeeb. Yes, if we let this go, our country will never be able to save itself. Ahmed Adeeb is connected, Ahmed Adeeb is connected. We spoke even last night. Ahmed Adeeb is connected to the world's most powerful mafia gangs. The world's mafia gangs control him.
All dear citizens, if you let it go today, this country can never be able to save itself. This country cannot save itself in the years to come. Yes therefore, we have to move forward with great confirmation. To move forward with great confirmation.
All dear citizens. Be patient. Be patient. We will make dua at nightfall. After making dua, you all must stand up in a different manner. Until then be patient, be patient. Upon concluding, I would like to give a very clear message to our dear police and military forces. Yes, it is very clearly stated in this country's constitution that it is a government of the people. The government will be maintained by the people and the people will thus protect this government. We citizens brought the government and when this brutal government is gotten rid of, it is the responsibility of the citizens to ameliorate the government.
And especially in the current world, in such an environment, it is the responsibility of the citizens to ameliorate the government when it has fallen off the wagon. Yes, in the work that is being done for the citizens to ameliorate the government, do not graze the bodies of citizens with your fingertips with anything but their rights. Do not harm any citizen. Do not abuse any citizen. You all are us. We are you. Today, in saving this country from brutality, in saving it from the hands of evildoers, give your assistance to these dear Maldivian citizens. Approximately 35,000 dear Maldivian citizens gathered here today represent approximately 300,000 citizens of this country. Yes therefore, there is no government that the police and military have to protect having caused harm to these citizens. There is no minister that the police and military have to protect having disregarded these citizens.
Yes, therefore, we are well aware of the fact that Ahmed Adeeb pays several million Maldivian Rufiyaa to some police and lets out gang children out on the streets to harm us, to cause us loss, and to cause bloodshed from our bodies. Therefore, our dear police, give no room for any police caught under the spell of Ahmed Adeeb to cause any harm to our people. Keep us in the way of justice and keep us in the right way. Dear benevolent, honest police and military, keep to your promise and your promise to save dear Maldivian citizens from bloodshed from our bodies, from breaking a part of our bodies, from beating us with batons. Do not cause bloodshed from the bodies of these citizens. We do not want a single drop of blood to shed onto the ground from the body of a single citizen.
I swear upon the Almighty Allah, that I do not want a single drop of blood to shed onto the ground from the body of a single citizen. We do not want. But Ahmed Adeeb would order to even gunfire. He would order to even kill these citizens. Help these citizens. Help these citizens earn their rights. Stand with the citizens. Move forward with the citizens. These two departments are our two safeguarding departments. This country's most honourable, most prestigious, most respectable two departments. We stand together with both departments. We all stand under the protection of both departments. Both departments shall move forward.
Yes, therefore, in this activity, our members in high positions, yes, our members in high positions will advise you all as to what is to be done and how to get it done. Step forward in that way. If Allah Almighty wills, this brutality, if Allah Almighty wills, this brutality shall be brought to an end. Your courage, your objective, your readiness, are you ready? Are you ready? Are you ready? Have courage.

Defiant Night: Hundreds Gather at Pier Bowl for Mask-Burning Rally
in EYE ON SC, News Headlines
Demonstrators burn face masks in a firepit at the beach near the San Clemente Pier on Saturday, Nov. 21, as part of a rally against the state's latest Limited Stay at Home order, requiring all non-essential work and gatherings to cease from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. Photo: Shawn Raymundo
By Shawn Raymundo
As the clock struck 10 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 21, hundreds enthusiastically threw face masks into a firepit on the beach near the San Clemente Pier, sending a sharp rebuke to Gov. Gavin Newsom and his limited curfew imposed on counties struggling to get a handle on the latest surge in coronavirus cases.
Led by San Clemente resident Alan Hostetter and his American Phoenix Project, Saturday's demonstration was advertised as "a clear act of defiance" that coincided with the first night of the state's Limited Stay at Home order.
"This mask burning we're about to do is the (Boston) Tea Party of 2020," Hostetter said, eliciting cheers from the crowd of mask-less demonstrators, many of whom, donning Make America Great Again caps, waved American and Trump 2020 flags.
"We're about to make a statement, a powerful statement that is being made up and down the state of California, and it's not going to end there," Hostetter added, continuing to make disparaging remarks toward the governor, even going as far as suggesting an overthrow of the Newsom administration.
The limited curfew, announced late last week on counties within the purple "widespread" risk tier, placed a moratorium on all non-essential work, movement and gatherings between the hours of 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. for the next month.
The order comes as COVID-19 infections and hospitalizations are on the rise in California and the rest of the nation. It also followed the state's decision to drop several counties, including Orange County, back into the purple tier—the most restrictive level on its color-coded coronavirus monitoring system.
While there was a presence from the Orange County Sheriff's Department, like in previous rallies and protests throughout the year, the gathering and mask burning demonstration went off without intervention from law enforcement.
Sheriff Don Barnes last Thursday, Nov. 19, issued a statement in response to the governor's Limited Stay at Home order, explaining that the department wouldn't enforce the curfew, and instead maintain its position of taking "an education-first approach with regard to the public health orders."
Barnes had said that while OCSD is "assessing the action by the Governor," deputy sheriffs "will not be responding to requests for face-coverings or social gatherings-only enforcement," because they need to be available for emergency calls.
Hostetter on Saturday slammed the stay-at-home order, leveling a charge that "it has nothing to do with science, has nothing to do with medicine, it has nothing to do with anybody's health."
"Gavin Newsom is a criminal," Hostetter said while addressing the crowd. "We are going to show him tonight that we are no longer listening to him."
Daryl Wilkinson,a former Dana Point resident currently living in Anaheim who attended the rally on Saturday, acknowledged the severity of the pandemic, but said he believes the restrictions are a step too far.
"We want to stand up for our God-given Constitutional rights," he said, adding: "It's understandable that, yes, there is an epidemic, a situation with the pandemic, but our present government has no right to impede on everyone's rights to assemble while they're ignoring the data on the infection rate and the fatality rate of this pandemic."
The county on Monday, Nov. 23, reached a new milestone in total cases, surpassing more than 71,110 cumulatively to date, as 1,422 new positive cases were reported to the health office. More than 1,550 county residents have died from the disease, according to the Orange County Health Care Agency.
As of Monday, there were 428 people reportedly being treated for COVID-19 in the county's hospitals, the highest number since mid-August. Of those in the hospital, 105 were admitted to an intensive care unit.
Over the weekend, San Clemente also saw a jump in cases, adding 51 reported infections between Friday, Nov. 20, and Monday, bringing the city's cumulative total to 759.
Though Wilkinson, who regularly wears a face mask for his work, participated in the rally on Saturday, he said he didn't want to burn his mask, noting its cost and support for the reelection of President Donald Trump.
"No, I did not (burn it); I can't," Wilkinson said with a laugh. "Mine is a Trump 2020 mask, and I don't want to burn it."

NICOLAS CAGE FORUM - CAGEALOT CASTLE -> Nicolas Cage DVD/Blu-Ray -> Blu-ray Review: Vampire's Kiss / High Spirits [Double Feature]
TOPIC: Blu-ray Review: Vampire's Kiss / High Spirits [Double Feature]
Blu-ray Review: Vampire's Kiss / High Spirits [Double Feature]
Vampire's Kiss is out on blu-ray, I'm excited! I don't own this one and really want to, so I am hoping I can find the blu-ray somewhere local. Love this movie.
http://www.geeksofdoom.com/2015/02/10/blu-ray-review-vampires-kiss-high-spirits
Director: Robert Bierman
Screenwriter: Joseph Minion
Cast: Nicolas Cage, María Conchita Alonso, Jennifer Beals
Rated R | 103 Minutes
Synopsis: Teetering on the edge of sanity, volatile literary agent Peter Loew (Nicolas Cage) tries to find purpose in his life through a cutthroat work ethic and a hedonistic night life. But when an encounter with a mysterious beauty leaves Loew convinced that he is turning into a vampire, his behavior turns positively outrageous.
Robert Bierman was originally scheduled to direct the 1986 remake of The Fly, but withdrew from the project after the death of his daughter. Instead, Bierman's feature-length debut was the 1989 black comedy, Vampire's Kiss.
Imagine if you will, a young Nicolas Cage (hot off Raising Arizona and Moonstruck) in a business suit and plastic vampire fangs, screaming, "I'm a vampire! I'm a vampire!" That pretty much sums up this bizarre, coked-out horror comedy. Even if you've never seen Bierman's film, you probably know bits and pieces of it, thanks to YouTube's impressive selection of "Nicolas Cage Losing His s***" montages.
Cage is OUT. OF. HIS. MIND in this movie, guys. At one point, he straight-up eats a c***roach. Unfortunately, the scene took three takes, so technically he ate THREE c***roaches. Say what you will about our greatest National Treasure (get it!?), but the man is a true artist willing to suffer for his craft.
Honestly, it's hard to believe Vampire's Kiss is a real film at times – it's so completely unhinged, so unapologetically bat-s*** crazy, that it defies reason. It's worth picking up this Scream Factory Blu-ray release to hear Robert Bierman and Nicolas Cage discuss making the film on the included audio commentary.
"I'm a big believer in the ambiguous, and letting it be about whatever people want it to be about, but I always saw the movie as a story of a man whose loneliness and inability to find love literally drives him insane." Sure, Nic, whatever you say! There are some pretty great bits throughout the commentary of Cage critiquing his own performance, with reactions like, "That! What is that!?"
I'd be out of my mind to call it a masterpiece, but Vampire's Kiss is twisted enough to warrant a watch, especially if you've never seen Nic Cage at his most deranged and unglued. THAT'S HIGH PRAISE!

Yet there was simply nothing Maize or anyone on North Carolina State could do to stop McCowan on Friday but scream. McCowan dominated offensively. She dominated defensively. She grabbed every rebound.
The sophomore center finished with 24 points and 15 rebounds to lead Mississippi State to a 71-57 Sweet 16 win, and she could have done so much more. She didn't miss a single shot, making 11-of-11 field goals — tying a tournament record — and both free throw attempts.
"We didn't really have an answer for McCowan," NC State coach Wes Moore said.
Kellenberger:Teaira McCowan is a 'daggum' All-American, huge reason why Mississippi State is in Elite 8
Maize's early strategy was to push McCowan up and make her uncomfortable away from the block. McCowan's first shot of the game came with Maize hounding her in the post, her arms leaving no space. McCowan was forced to take a difficult left-handed turnaround hook shot off the backboard. She sunk it.
The next possession, Maize tried to post her up. She used a few moves and thought she had an opening 10 feet from the basket. Maize turned around and discovered McCowan still completely in position and was forced to throw up a shot that landed behind the backboard.
"Boy, I loved the look in her eye," coach Vic Schaefer said. "There were times she just wasn't going to be denied."
More:Mississippi State players analyze Teaira McCowan's top blocks of the regular season
McCowan technically finished with only four blocks, but that number doesn't quantify her effect Friday. NC State consistently found ways to drive into the lane in the first half. It didn't matter. Each time, the Wolfpack was forced to throw up an awkward shot in the lane that had no chance of going in.
She had such a physical presence down low that the second-half NC State strategy was to play in front of her and try to stop passes from getting inside.
That meant Mississippi State was able to simply lob it up over any defender where only McCowan could grab it. That set up even more easy buckets.
Maize was forced to answer question after question about what guarding McCowan was like, because she was so dominant people just wanted to know how it felt to do it in person, to not just be watching her but actually going against her.
She said no amount of film could show how strong McCowan was.
"That was probably the biggest surprise I had coming into the game," Maize said. "Her strength — she was really strong."
For McCowan, though, it's a different experience. Each and every game she goes up against a post player like Maize grinning before the tip. Each game the opponent is psyching themselves up to go against one of the most dominant players in the country. They try to give it everything they have to show they can compete physically with her.
"At the beginning of games, teams are all giddy and just going," she said. "But at the end of the game is when I always get 'em."
Then a grin came over McCowan's face.
"Either way it's a lose-lose."

Pakistan Security Brief
Pakistan Army denies ISI colonel gave up bin Laden; New book by bin Laden raid team member to describe full operation; New intel reports presage fresh TTP attacks; Government tight-lipped about probe into Kamra base attack; former Pakistani ambassador calls for U.S. and Pakistan to "divorce;" Pakistan summons U.S. official to protest against drone attacks; President Karzai blames Pakistan for insider attacks on NATO troops; Christian girl blasphemy victim being denied legal counsel; Christians in Faisalabad riot after boy killed; India, Pakistan to exchange banking permits; fresh violence in Karachi, northwest.
Bin Laden Raid Revelations
The Pakistani military has denied claims made in a new book by journalist Richard Miniter that a top colonel in Pakistan's Directorate for Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) gave the U.S. the location of Osama bin Laden's hiding place in Abbottabad. Maj. Gen. Asif Saleem Bajwa, the Director General of Pakistan's Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) arm, said the story was "fabricated" and "an attempt to malign Pakistan and [the] Pakistan Army."[1]
A book detailing the raid to kill Osama bin Laden inside Pakistan written by one of the Navy SEAL Team Six members present during the raid is due to be released next month. The book is purported to give a blow-by-blow of the raid from start to finish and has reportedly caught military and government agencies off-guard; spokesmen for the Navy and the National Security Council both deny ever reviewing or receiving requests for approval for the book's publishing.[2]
Fresh TTP Attacks Planned
A confidential report by the National Crisis Management Cell (NCMC) of the interior ministry on Thursday claims that the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) is planning more terrorist activities in the country's major cities of Islamabad, Lahore, Multan, Peshawar, and Bannu. The report claims that the TTP is seeking to kidnap serving and retired military officers and American citizens in order to negotiate for the release of its accomplices who are being held in jail. The TTP has also allowed its activists to rob banks and jewelry shops to help finance their activities. The TTP reportedly planned two months of militant activities during a recent meeting presided over by senior commander Qari Saifullah Moavia. According to the report, law enforcement agencies have been informed and security has been put on high alert across the country.[3]
The Pakistani government has so far remained silent over the findings of a committee established to investigate the TTP attack on the Pakistan Air Force base at Kamra. The team said it was too early to release findings to civilians, and that it needed a few more days to make any concrete discoveries. Committee officials have affirmed that the investigation is intended to find out who provided logistical support to the attackers. After a preliminary investigation, a senior official confirmed that four of the nine militants had stayed in Makhan Suleman, a village adjacent to the base, but refused to comment further.[4]
U.S. Pakistan Relations
Pakistan's former ambassador to the United States recently issued a statement calling for the U.S. and Pakistan to "divorce as allies." In a presentation at the Center for the National Interest in Washington, D.C., Husain Haqqani argued that it would be best for both countries to extricate themselves from the dysfunctional U.S.-Pakistan relationship, as this would allow each country to sustain more realistic expectations of the other. Haqqani stated that it was unrealistic for Pakistan to believe the US would support it in a war against India; likewise, it was unrealistic for the U.S. to think that Pakistan would give up its nuclear weapons or cut ties with extremist groups. He further added that there was no way the relationship could improve until the "unhealthy dynamic" of giving US aid to Pakistan and then threatening to withhold it ended, commenting that "Pakistan ends up behaving like Syria while wanting to be treated like Israel." Haqqani also emphasized that the Pakistani government should account for how Osama bin Laden was able to remain undetected for so long in Abbottabad, and make clear who was assisting him.[5]
According to Pakistan's Foreign Office, a senior U.S. diplomat had been summoned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to protest recent drone strikes in North Waziristan. Pakistani officials reportedly told the unidentified U.S. diplomat that such, "attacks were unacceptable, unlawful, and a violation of the country's sovereignty."[6]
Qazi Hussain Ahmad, the former chief of the Jamaat-e-Islami, an Islamist political party, has blamed the U.S. and India for perpetuating violence in Balochistan. In a recent press conference, Ahmad warned that the U.S. and India "had an eye" on the province's natural resources and that a separatist movement would leave the province vulnerable to foreign exploitation. Ahmad also accused the U.S. of perpetrating the recent attack on a Pakistani Air Force Base, saying that those who had claimed responsibility were enemies of Pakistan.[7]
Afghan-Pakistan Relations
Afghan President Hamid Karzai on Wednesday made a statement asserting that "foreign spy agencies" were responsible for the recent spate of "green-on-blue" attacks involving Afghan soldiers and policemen turning on their NATO counterparts. Karzai's allusions to Pakistani spy agencies as having a role in most of the attacks conflicts with NATO assessments that only around one in ten such attacks are the result of enemy infiltration in the ranks. A Pakistani military official rebuked the assertion that Pakistani intelligence agencies were involved.[8]
Minority Persecution and Blasphemy Case
A lawyer for the young Christian girl accused of blasphemy was reportedly refused a meeting with his client. According to Shamaun Alfred Gill, a spokesman for All Pakistan Minorities Alliance (APMA), authorities of Adiala jail, where she is being held, have refused to allow lawyers to see or speak to her, telling them that they must first get permission from top officials. The young Christian girl is being held in the same jail as Mumtaz Qadri, the bodyguard who last year gunned down Punjab governor Salman Taseer, who spoke out against Pakistan's blasphemy law. The World Vision in Progress Foundation, an NGO, has placed a bail application before the Islamabad session court on behalf of the girl; the hearing is to begin on August 28.[9]
An influential Christian church organization, the World Council of Churches (WCC), will hold an international conference in Geneva next month on Pakistan's blasphemy law. The conference is intended to give a global platform to religious minorities in Pakistan who are affected by the blasphemy law, which has frequently resulted in death penalties and "mob-instigated violence." Pakistani diplomats were not invited to attend the conference.[10]
In Faisalabad hundreds of Christians protested the recent killing of a 12 year old Christian boy. Protestors reportedly threw stones at shops and vehicles, with traffic suspended for over four hours. The boy allegedly had been kidnapped the night before Eid and was found dead earlier this week. It is reported that the boy's body had several cuts and had been set on fire. An investigation team has been created to probe the case.[11]
Indo-Pak Relations
Indian media outlets reported on Thursday that Pakistan and India have agreed to issue each other complete banking licenses and open branches of two banks hosted in each other's countries. The State Bank of India and Bank of India will open branches in Pakistan, whereas the National Bank of Pakistan and United Bank Ltd will open branches in India.[12]
Militancy and Violence
Militants shot and killed three police officers in Hangu district, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa. The incident occurred while the policemen conducted routine patrolling of the area. Although no one has taken responsibility thus far, the chief of police in Hangu affirmed Taliban militants were "responsible for the attack."[13]
Four dead bodies were found in Karachi on Thursday, including a political activist affiliated with the Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM). This brings the death toll in Karachi since Monday to eight people. Law enforcement agencies also claimed to have arrested two men from the TTP during a raid in Karachi's Manghopir area. The suspects were found with a map of Karachi, hand grenades, and other weapons. Officials suspected the militants were planning to conduct an attack on Eid.[14]
Four people were injured and several houses damaged when Pakistani security forces fired heavy artillery at suspected militant hideouts in Bara, Khyber agency. Shah Faisal Afridi, head of Jamaat-e-Islami, Khyber Agency, condemned the destructive firing and requested the government do more to protect civilians.[15]
Bomb Disposal Squads were able to defuse two bombs, while a third bomb exploded in Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province on Thursday. The first bomb was defused in Sheikhan village. The second bomb was defused in a house in Matani. The third bomb exploded near a house in Gulshanabad. No casualties were reported.[16]
A man who was injured in a suicide attack on a police convoy on in Karachi on April 5 succumbed to his injuries on Wednesday. Police sources said he was unable to afford medical treatment and died at his residence in Malir.[17]
According to The News, police raided a house in Lakki town on Wednesday and arrested a militant there identified as Imtiaz.[18]
Monsoon Flooding
Pakistan officials say heavy monsoon rains that triggered flooding in the country's north have caused at least 26 deaths. One official says that the rains have killed 17 people and damaged about 500 homes in the Pakistan-administered Kashmir region, and another official says nine people died Wednesday in northwest Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.[19]

Kamaru Usman Helps Promote MMA In His Home Country Of Nigeria Leading Up To UFC Africa
Former UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman has decided to promote mixed martial arts in Africa prior to the Ultimate Fighting Championship's debut event on the continent.
UFC President Dana White has gone on record a number of times in 2022 stating that he'd like to take the UFC to Africa in 2023, and that if he doesn't do it now, 10 more years will go by and they still wouldn't have created a market there.
Therefore, Usman has taken matters into his own hands by helping promote an event in Nigeria.
As you see in the video above, Usman is playing Dana White by hosting the weigh ins at Face Off Fight Night III.
Kamaru Usman is one of the greatest 170 lb fighters to ever walk the earth, many placing him second just behind Georges St-Pierre.
But, it's not just himself helping to promote MMA in Africa; former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya and current UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou have both done the same as well, Adesanya being a fellow Nigerian, and Ngannou hailing from Cameroon.
With the athleticism, strength, and power of most Africans, once the Performance Institutes have been built there, there's no telling how many stud fighters will come out of there.
Dricus du Plessis, following his win over Darren Till at UFC 282, also stated that the UFC should come to his native country in South Africa for their continental debut, saying they have the perfect infrastructures to host a massive event.
Do you think the UFC will host an event in Africa in 2023?

I saw the Corten-Miller Rotrex supercharger fitted to a MK3 MX5 at Blyton May 2013. This was very much an advanced prototype fitment at the time, it is good to see that. things have progressed. Just for the record I had a Rotrex supercharger fitted to my V6 2.9 Corrado back in the. 90's.

Corten-Miller Supercharger - posted in MX5 & General Car Chat: Just been reading the the latest Total MX5 mag and there was an interesting article on 300bhp supercharger for the MK3 by Corten-miller ? I must say I have never heard of them, does anyone know of their conversions.


The Heel Condom.. I have to say the name might not be the best one for this accessory customizing innovation, but it is just that, a heel cover for your high heeled shoe. Puerto Rican designer Sandrysabel Ortiz designed these clever contraptions to dress up any boring pair of heels. I´m also thinking to cover up a destroyed heel. I love versatile fashions and these really help to make a pair of basic black heels change their look. Just think how cool it would be also to customize your shoes with the same fabric/material you used to make your clothes. The top picture is from Rodarte show, knitwear covered heels with a built-in light. I have no idea how the tech part is done but the knit heel looks pretty awsome. And if you have no need to change these from one pair of heels to the next just hot glue them on permanently with a gluegun!

\section{Introduction}
In this notice we revisit the recent work \cite{Kang} on some
properties of special polynomials with exponential distribution of
Jung Yoog Kang and Tai Sup Lee published in Commun. Korean Math.
Soc. The object of this study is the family of polynomials
$\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)$ generated by the generating
function
\[\frac{\lambda}{e^{\lambda
t}}e^{xt}=\sum_{n\geq0}\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)\frac{t^n}{n!}\]
and associated numbers
$\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda\right)=\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:0\right)$
generated by \[\frac{\lambda}{e^{\lambda
t}}=\sum_{n\geq0}\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda\right)\frac{t^n}{n!}\]
First we prove that
\[\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)=\lambda\left(x-\lambda\right)^n\]
and then
\[\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda\right)=\left(-1\right)^n\lambda^{n+1}\]
These results go alone to show that some results in this paper are
trivial. For example the result in Theorem 2.10 p.387
\[D\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)=n\mathfrak{E}_{n-1}\left(\lambda:x\right)\]
and the result in Theorem 3.1 p.387
\[D_y\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x+y\right)=D_x\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x+y\right)=n\mathfrak{E}_{n-1}\left(\lambda:x+y\right).\]
Furthermore the Theorem 3.2 p.388
\[\int_{0}^{1}\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x+y\right)dy=\frac{\mathfrak{E}_{n+1}\left(\lambda:x+1\right)-\mathfrak{E}_{n+1}\left(\lambda:y\right)}{n+1}\]
and then the Corollary 3.3 p.388
\[\int_{0}^{1}\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)dx=\frac{\mathfrak{E}_{n+1}\left(\lambda:1\right)-\mathfrak{E}_{n+1}\left(\lambda\right)}{n+1}.\]

\section{Some basic properties}
For any positive integer $n$, the polynomial
$\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)$  is a binomial polynomial
with weight $\lambda$, the following theorem states an improvement
of the expression (i) Theorem 2.2 \cite{Kang} p.384
\[\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda\right)x^{n-k}\]
\begin{theorem}\label{th1}
\begin{equation}\label{eqth1}
\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\left(-1\right)^k\lambda^{k+1}x^{n-k}.
\end{equation}
Furthermore
\begin{equation}
\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda\right)=\left(-1\right)^{n}\lambda^{n+1}
\end{equation}
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
Since
\[\frac{\lambda}{e^{\lambda
t}}e^{xt}=\lambda
e^{\left(x-\lambda\right)t}=\sum_{n\geq0}\lambda\left(x-\lambda\right)^n\frac{t^n}{n!}\]
then
\[\sum_{n\geq0}\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)\frac{t^n}{n!}=\sum_{n\geq0}\lambda\left(x-\lambda\right)^n\frac{t^n}{n!}.\]
 After comparison we deduce that
\[\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)=\lambda\left(x-\lambda\right)^n=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose k}\left(-1\right)^k\lambda^{k+1}x^{n-k}.\]
To get the second formula just remark that
\[\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)=\lambda\left(x-\lambda\right)^n=\left(-1\right)^{n}\lambda^{n+1}+\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}{n\choose
k}\left(-1\right)^k\lambda^{k+1}x^{n-k}\] and then for $x=0$ we
conclude that
\[\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda\right)=\left(-1\right)^{n}\lambda^{n+1}\]
\end{proof}
The identity (ii) Theorem 2.2 \cite{Kang} p.384 is a consequence of
the Theorem \ref{th1}
\begin{corollary}\label{cor1}
\begin{equation}\label{eq1cor1}
\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x+y\right)=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x\right)y^{n-k}
\end{equation}
\end{corollary}
\begin{proof}
The identity \eqref{eq1cor1} Corollary \ref{cor1} follows from the
identity \eqref{eqth1} Theorem \ref{th1} as follows.
\[\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x+y\right)=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\left(-1\right)^k\lambda^{k+1}\left(x+y\right)^{n-k}\]
\[\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x+y\right)=\sum_{i=0}^{n}\sum_{k=0}^{i}{n\choose
k}{n-k\choose i-k}\left(-1\right)^k\lambda^{k+1}x^{i-k}y^{n-i}\] but
\[{n\choose
k}{n-k\choose
i-k}=\frac{n!i!}{k!\left(i-k\right)!\left(n-i\right)!i!}={n\choose
i}{i\choose k}\] then
\begin{equation}\label{eq2cor1}
\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:x+y\right)=\sum_{i=0}^{n}\sum_{k=0}^{i}{n\choose
i}{i\choose k}\left(-1\right)^k\lambda^{k+1}x^{i-k}y^{n-i}
\end{equation}
and the result \eqref{eq1cor1} Corollary \ref{cor1} follows.
\end{proof}
We attract attention that the identiy \eqref{eq2cor1} is an
improvement of the Theorem 3.4 \cite{Kang} p.389. Only in means of
the identity \eqref{eqth1} Theorem \ref{th1} a sample proof of the
identity in Theorem 2.4 \cite{Kang} p.385
\[x^n=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\lambda^{n-k-1}\mathfrak{E}_k\left(\lambda: x\right)\]  is just to
write
\[\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\lambda^{n-k-1}\mathfrak{E}_k\left(\lambda:
x\right)=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\lambda^{n-k}\left(x-\lambda\right)^k=\left(x-\lambda+\lambda\right)^n=x^n.\]

Another proof of the identities (i) and (ii) in Theorem 2.3
\cite{Kang} is explained in the following theorem.
\begin{theorem}\label{th2}
\begin{equation}\label{eq1th2}
\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:
x\right)=\left(-1\right)^{n+1}\mathfrak{E}_n\left(-\lambda:
-x\right)
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}\label{eq2th2}
\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:
x\right)=2\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\frac{\lambda}{2}:
-\frac{\lambda}{2}+x\right)
\end{equation}
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
 Since we have $$\mathfrak{E}_n\left(-\lambda:
-x\right)=-\lambda\left(-x+\lambda\right)^n=-\left(-1\right)^n\lambda\left(x-\lambda\right)^n=\left(-1\right)^{n+1}\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:
x\right)$$ then \[\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:
x\right)=\left(-1\right)^{n+1}\mathfrak{E}_n\left(-\lambda:
-x\right).\] and \[\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\frac{\lambda}{2}:
-\frac{\lambda}{2}+x\right)=\frac{\lambda}{2}\left(-\frac{\lambda}{2}+x-\frac{\lambda}{2}\right)^n=\frac{\lambda}{2}\left(x-\lambda\right)^n=\frac{1}{2}\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:
x\right)\] and then \[\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\lambda:
x\right)=2\mathfrak{E}_n\left(\frac{\lambda}{2}:
-\frac{\lambda}{2}+x\right).\]
\end{proof}
A sample proof of the identity in Theorem 2.5 \cite{Kang} p.285
\begin{eqnarray*}
\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\left(\lambda-x\right)^k\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\lambda: x\right)=
\left\{
\begin{array}{ccc}
\lambda\ &\quad \textrm{ if }\ n=0, \\
0\  &\quad  \textrm{ otherwise}
\end{array}
\right.
\end{eqnarray*}
is given as follows. It is trivial to see that for $n=0$ the sum is
$\lambda$ and if $n\geq1$ we have
\[\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\left(\lambda-x\right)^k\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\lambda:
x\right)=\lambda\left(x-\lambda\right)^n\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\left(-1\right)^k=0\] because \[\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\left(-1\right)^k=\left(1-1\right)^n=0.\]
\begin{remark} For any cupel $\left(a,b\right)$ of numbers, the formulae in Theorem 2.8 \cite{Kang} p.386
\begin{eqnarray*}
\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^{n-2k}\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\frac{b\lambda}{a}:
\frac{bx}{a}\right)\mathfrak{E}_{k}\left(\frac{a\lambda}{b}:
\frac{ay}{b}\right)\\
\nonumber=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\left(\frac{b}{a}\right)^{n-2k}\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\frac{a\lambda}{b}:
\frac{ax}{b}\right)\mathfrak{E}_{k}\left(\frac{b\lambda}{a}:
\frac{by}{a}\right)
\end{eqnarray*}
results from the identities
\[\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^{n-2k}\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\frac{b\lambda}{a}:
\frac{bx}{a}\right)\mathfrak{E}_{k}\left(\frac{a\lambda}{b}:
\frac{ay}{b}\right)=\left(x-\lambda\right)^{n-k}\left(y-\lambda\right)^{k}\]
and
\[\left(\frac{b}{a}\right)^{n-2k}\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\frac{a\lambda}{b}:
\frac{ax}{b}\right)\mathfrak{E}_{k}\left(\frac{b\lambda}{a}:
\frac{by}{a}\right)=\left(x-\lambda\right)^{k}\left(y-\lambda\right)^{n-k}\]
and the fact that \[\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\left(x-\lambda\right)^{n-k}\left(y-\lambda\right)^{k}=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose
k}\left(x-\lambda\right)^{k}\left(y-\lambda\right)^{n-k}=\left(x+y-2\lambda\right)^n.\]

\end{remark}
In the case $x=y$ a new identity without the sum is obtained in the
following corollary.
\begin{corollary}\label{cor2}
\begin{equation}\label{eqcor2}
\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^{2n-4k}\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\frac{b\lambda}{a}:
\frac{bx}{a}\right)\mathfrak{E}_{k}\left(\frac{a\lambda}{b}:
\frac{ax}{b}\right)=\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\frac{a\lambda}{b}:
\frac{ax}{b}\right)\mathfrak{E}_{k}\left(\frac{b\lambda}{a}:
\frac{bx}{a}\right)
\end{equation}
\end{corollary}
\begin{proof}
We have \[\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\frac{b\lambda}{a}:
\frac{bx}{a}\right)\mathfrak{E}_{k}\left(\frac{a\lambda}{b}:
\frac{ax}{b}\right)=\left(\frac{b}{a}\right)^{n-2k}\left(x-\lambda\right)^n\]
then
\[\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^{2n-4k}\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\frac{b\lambda}{a}:
\frac{bx}{a}\right)\mathfrak{E}_{k}\left(\frac{a\lambda}{b}:
\frac{ax}{b}\right)=\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^{n-2k}\left(x-\lambda\right)^n\]
with
\[\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^{n-2k}\left(x-\lambda\right)^n=\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\frac{a\lambda}{b}:
\frac{ax}{b}\right)\mathfrak{E}_{k}\left(\frac{b\lambda}{a}:
\frac{bx}{a}\right)\] and the result follows.
\end{proof}
Finally for the cupel $\left(1,b\right)$, the identity
\eqref{eqcor2} Corollary \ref{cor2} becomes
\begin{corollary}\label{cor3}
\begin{equation}\label{eqcor3}
\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)^{2n-4k}\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(b\lambda:
bx\right)\mathfrak{E}_{k}\left(\frac{\lambda}{b}:
\frac{x}{b}\right)=\mathfrak{E}_{n-k}\left(\frac{\lambda}{b}:
\frac{x}{b}\right)\mathfrak{E}_{k}\left(b\lambda: bx\right)
\end{equation}
\end{corollary}

KEY OATH KEEPER STATEMENTS
Declaration of Orders We Will NOT Obey
Principles of Our Republic We Are Sworn to Defend
ABOUT OATH KEEPERS:
Oath Keepers is an association of currently serving military, veterans, and peace officers who will fulfill the oath we swore to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic, so help us God.
Our oath is to the Constitution, not to the politicians, and we will not obey unconstitutional (and thus illegal) and immoral orders, such as orders to disarm the American people or to place them under martial law and deprive them of their ancient right to jury trial.
We Oath Keepers have drawn a line in the sand. We will not "just follow orders."
Our motto is "Not on our watch!"
If you, the American people, are forced to once again fight for your liberty in another American Revolution, you will not be alone. We will stand with you.
There is at this time a debate within the ranks of the military regarding their oath. Some mistakenly believe they must follow any order the President issues. But you can rest assured that many others in the military do understand that their loyalty is to the Constitution, and understand what that means.
The mission of Oath Keepers is to vastly increase their numbers. We are in a battle for the hearts and minds of our own troops.

This site is dedicated to the memory of John William Adams (1925-2006), Marine and Oath Keeper extraordinaire.
John Adams, at the age of 16, lied about his age to join the Marines so he could fight against Imperial Japan in the Pacific. His enlistment date was December 10, 1941, just three days after the attack on Pearl Harbor (see below). As a Marine rifleman, he fought the Japanese from island to island, across the pacific, including at Iwo Jima. We may have good men, but we never had better.
Until his death in 2006, he was a dedicated patriot who still took his oath to defend the Republic deadly serious. May God grant you the courage to do likewise.
John Adams, Enlistment Date December 10, 1941
Now that is what you call stepping up - but he was not alone. And neither are you.
In memory of that sixteen-year-old boy who went to war so long ago and saw things no sixteen year old should ever have to see, and in the hope that his service was not in vain, we dedicate this song:
THE MINSTREL BOY As Sung by the Late Joe Strummer
The Minstrel Boy to the war is gone
In the ranks of death you will find him;
His father's sword he hath girded on,
And his wild harp slung behind him;"
Land of Song!" said the warrior bard,
"Tho' all the world betrays thee,
One sword, at least, thy rights shall guard,
One faithful harp shall praise thee!"
The Minstrel fell! But the foeman's chain
Could not bring that proud soul under;
The harp he lov'd ne'er spoke again,
For he tore its chords asunder;
And said "No chains shall sully thee,
Thou soul of love and brav'ry!
Thy songs were made for the pure and free,
They shall never sound in slavery!"

Vertical traffic scheduling is significant in evaluating the quality of property management. An excellent vertical traffic scheduling approach aims at enhancing the system handling capacity and reducing the waiting time, journey time and energy consumption, especially in up-peak traffic pattern. To balance workloads of elevator cars in the system is a good choice for any peak traffic. This paper proposed a novel PSO-based dynamic scheduling algorithm for vertical traffic in buildings. The service zones for elevators are determined by considering their expected round-trip time. Our preliminary simulation results show that the proposed algorithm balances the round-trip time over the elevator system and further improves the service quality of elevator system in buildings.

How Many People Do I Send Thank You Letters to After an Interview?
by Ruth Mayhew
Call the company for the proper spelling of names for your thank-you notes.
Jupiterimages/liquidlibrary/Getty Images
1 Send a Thank You Letter After a Poor Interview
2 Write a Letter to Reject an Interview
3 Reschedule an Interview via Email
4 Who to Address a Thank You Letter to if You Forget the Interviewer's Name?
Thank-you letters play an important role in landing a job. Would you choose someone who demonstrates a polite and professional attitude over someone who doesn't even think to say thanks? Whether you have one interview or five, send a thank-you letter every time you meet with someone to discuss an employment opportunity. It's better to send an unexpected, yet welcome, thank-you note to a prospective employer than not to send one to a hiring manager who thought you'd demonstrate the type of professional courtesy she believes candidates should extend.
Professional Courtesy
When you're looking for a job, thank-you letters aren't required, but you shouldn't overlook them. The recruiter, hiring manager and company officials who spend time interviewing you didn't have to schedule time to meet with you, but they did, so writing a thank-you letter is a welcome gesture. Keep your letter professional, thanking the interviewer for her time.
Many organizations begin their selection process with a telephone interview. Although the interview is brief -- usually around 10 to 20 minutes -- it takes recruiters time to conduct the preliminary screening to determine whom they want to interview. Then, they must notify the applicant she's been selected for a phone interview and, finally, conduct the interview itself.
I's entirely appropriate to send a thank-you note to the recruiter. As soon as you've finished the telephone interview, review the notes you took during the conversation and write a brief note, such as, "Thank you for taking time to discuss the medical records manager position with me. My qualifications appear to be ideally suited to the job as you described it and I'm looking forward to moving to the next interview steps."
Round Two Letter
When you've officially made the second cut and get the chance to shine during an interview with the person who might become your next boss, you should absolutely send a thank-you letter no later than 24 hours after your meeting.
Begin by expressing your appreciation the time each interviewer spent with you. Raise a few points about why you're qualified for the job, restate your interest in the job and remind each interviewer what you bring to the organization.
Reiterate your credentials and experience. Include one or two sentences about a matter you discussed during the interview, such as what you plan to accomplish during your first several weeks on the job.
Given that this is near the final step in the selection process, close your letter by saying how much you would enjoy becoming part of the organization's team and contributing to its goals.
Collect a business card or quickly jot down names and titles of people you talk with during your interviews using the pad and pen you brought in your portfolio that contains extra copies of your resume, cover letter and professional references.
Make sure each letter is individual and before you send it make sure you have the names and titles correct.
Recall something specific each panel member talked about during the interview and include that in your letter. For example, if the panel included an operations manager and a prospective colleague or peer, indicate in your letter to the manager that you are committed to the organizational philosophy and mission and that you're looking forward to aiding the company in achieving its goals. For your letter to a potential colleague or peer, you could say that you're excited about developing a collegial relationship with him and working collaboratively to achieve the company's goals.

Synlogic Reports Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results and Provides Program Updates
- Data from Phase 1/2 studies of SYNB1618 and SYNB1020 expected by end of 2018 –
– On track to advance first immuno-oncology program into IND-enabling studies in fourth quarter of 2018 –
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 8, 2018-- Synlogic, Inc. (Nasdaq: SYBX), a clinical stage company applying synthetic biology to probiotics to develop novel, living medicines, today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018 and provided an update on its programs.
"Synlogic's recent progress, including initiation of two clinical trials and multiple presentations of preclinical data, highlight the potential of Synthetic Biotic medicines across a range of diseases," said Aoife Brennan, M.B., B.Ch., Synlogic's interim president and chief executive officer and chief medical officer. "In the second half of 2018, we look to continue this momentum as we advance our clinical pipeline, with data expected from phase 1/2 clinical trials of our two lead programs, SYNB1020 in patients with hyperammonemia due to cirrhosis and SYNB1618 in healthy volunteers. In addition, we look forward to advancing our first immuno-oncology program into IND-enabling studies for the treatment of cancer."
Presentation of preclinical data highlighting potential of Synthetic Biotic medicines in immuno-oncology (IO) at the annual meeting of the Federation of Clinical Immunology Societies (FOCIS 2018), including the platform's broad capabilities to generate candidates that secrete or consume immunologically relevant compounds for the potential treatment of cancer and inflammation. Data presented in two sessions demonstrate that intratumorally injected E. coli Nissle was able to colonize and persist in the tumor, and that multiple functions can be engineered into a single bacterial strain. These properties support the continued development of Synthetic Biotic immunotherapies for the treatment of solid tumors, particularly "cold" tumors that may be resistant to current immunotherapies due to their lack of infiltrating immune cells or a highly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Synlogic plans to advance its first immuno-oncology program into IND-enabling studies in the fourth quarter of 2018.
Presentation of preclinical data supporting continued development of SYNB1618 for the treatment of Phenylketonuria (PKU) in a plenary session at the annual meeting of the American Society for Microbiology (ASM Microbe 2018). The data demonstrate, in a mouse model of PKU and healthy non-human primates, that orally administered SYNB1618 can result in significant decreases in blood phenylalanine levels and dose-responsive pharmacokinetics. Synlogic is currently evaluating SYNB1618 in a Phase 1/2a clinical trial for the management of PKU and expects to report interim data from healthy volunteers before the end of 2018 and full data that includes cohorts of patients with PKU in 2019.
Presentation of new preclinical data highlighting beneficial activity of SYNB1020 in animal model of liver disease at Digestive Disease Week (DDW 2018). The data demonstrate that, in addition to lowering systemic levels of ammonia, administration of SYNB1020 resulted in reduced indicators of liver damage, providing additional support for its continued development for the potential treatment of liver disease. SYNB1020 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1b/2a clinical trial in patients with elevated ammonia due to cirrhosis, with topline data expected at the end of 2018.
Strengthened balance sheet: As of June 30, 2018, Synlogic had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of $143.2 million which includes $28.9 million in net proceeds generated by a registered direct offering completed in April 2018.
Addition to Russell 3000® Index following its annual reconstitution, providing Synlogic increased visibility and exposure to institutional investors.
For the three months ended June 30, 2018, Synlogic reported a consolidated net loss of $14.6 million, or $0.59 per share, compared to a consolidated net loss of $9.4 million, or $4.70 per share, for the corresponding period in 2017.
Research and development expenses were $10.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $8.5 million for the corresponding period in 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in expenses associated with Synlogic's SYNB1618 program including its ongoing Phase 1/2a clinical trial, an increase in compensation and other employee-related expenses associated with increased headcount, partially offset by one-time equity-based and patent-related charges of $2.1 million associated with Synlogic's MIT-BU license agreement.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018 were $4.7 million compared to $3.0 million for the corresponding period in 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $1.2 million in compensation costs associated with the separation of Synlogic's former chief executive officer, as well as compensation and other employee-related expenses associated with increased headcount.
Revenues were $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $2.1 million for the corresponding period in 2017. Revenue for both periods was associated with Synlogic's collaboration with AbbVie to develop Synthetic Biotic medicines for the treatment of irritable bowel disease (IBD). The decrease in revenue was primarily the result of a milestone achieved and recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2017.
Six-months Results
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the consolidated net loss was $25.8 million, or $1.14 per share, compared to a consolidated net loss of $16.8 million, or $9.20 per share, for the corresponding period in 2017.
Total operating expenses were $27.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $19.1 million for the corresponding period in 2017. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to compensation-related expenses associated with increased headcount, increased external costs associated with development of Synlogic's Synthetic Biotic programs including process and formulation development, pre-clinical and clinical studies as well as increased general and administrative expenses as a consequence of becoming a public company.
Synlogic is pioneering the development of a novel class of living medicines, Synthetic Biotic medicines, based on its proprietary drug development platform. Synlogic leverages the tools and principles of synthetic biology to genetically engineer probiotic microbes to perform or deliver critical functions missing or damaged due to disease. Synlogic's two lead programs, SYNB1020 and SYNB1618, target hyperammonemia as a result of liver damage or genetic disease, and PKU, respectively. When delivered orally, Synthetic Biotic medicines can act from the gut to compensate for the dysfunctional metabolic pathway and have a systemic effect, with the potential to significantly improve symptoms of disease for affected patients. In addition, the company is leveraging the broad potential of its platform to create Synthetic Biotic medicines for the treatment of more common diseases, including liver disease, inflammatory and immune disorders, and cancer. Synlogic is collaborating with AbbVie to develop Synthetic Biotic-based treatments for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). For more information, please visit www.synlogictx.com.

Hammill's knot found that as an endpoint, it "is strongly and unequivocally correlated with the dimension of hour patients exposed free from their blue ribbon off event," namely extermination (tau=0.72) and the composite of eradication or goodness omission readmission (tau=0.59).
Novel from the established nucleus fizzle effects that supervision look after for to be reported in explorations, Hammill's assort advocated, home-time is an endpoint that is varied intuitively formed by patients and clinicians similarly and may imitate the gamble of mortality and morbidity associated with tenderness failure. "As an additional use, home-time may move up reflect the saddle with of sensitivity also-ran worry on the trim solicitude procedure by being outspoken of the significant various of days credited to facilities other than dispensaries," they famed.
Nevertheless, there is a downside to the home-time endpoint: standing to compile a miscellaneous complete dataset that draft clue investigators in to a patients' whereabouts done with and above later, and would rathe it be unnatural by vacillates in information availability, go together to the initiators.
Their bone up on hardened the Get With The Guidelines-Heart Insolvency (GWTG-HF) registry to distinguish details on constants discharged fit from any ardours failure hospitalization from 2011 to 2014 (n=59,736). All were length of existences ≥65 (stuff age 80.7) and had a median set fire to fraction of 50%.
It was imaginable to calculate appreciating comfortable with however servicing Medicare imposes for 97.1% and 70.6% of patients at 30 hours and 1 year, severally.
Hammill's tour noted that their observational appraisal may have demarcated generalizability to the withstands of younger voids and hospitals not participating in the presented GWTG-HF program.
Home-time has been preplanned in ischemic deed populations in which it was humour cleared to be a stout and definitively slow patient-reported commodity, commented Edgar Lichstein, MD, of Maimonides Medical Center in New York Burg, and Abhishek Sharma, MD, of Massachusetts All-embracing Hospital in Boston, in an chaperoning think-piece.
The agree of days patients can lodge at home can also be strongly artificial by social convey available to them, they aciform out, depicting their booking in how socioeconomic components, geographic ignoring, and discharge naming may play a party in determining home-time hide up with hospitalization for sad thing failure.

There's something about it being sunny and warm outdoors (finally!) that makes me want to "play" with my food. That's exactly what I was doing when I created this Asian-style taco recipe. It's definitely not your ordinary taco! The tortillas and lime wedges are grilled for smoky goodness. You'll get lots of crunch from a colorful cole slaw mix and dry roasted peanuts. There's plenty of high-flavored ooziness from a lime-accented peanut butter sauce and gochujang. And the highlight is Gardein Mandarin Orange Crispy Chick'n, providing a unique plant-based protein twist. (Hint: You'll make the chick'n in advance and can heat it up in a cast iron skillet on the grill.) It's so yum! Plus, it's vegan—so it's ideal for a Meatless Monday-inspired Memorial Day BBQ. But please serve up this showstopper at any summertime cookout … no need to wait for next Monday. Eating less meat has never been so tasty—even for meat eaters!
Disclosure: As a Meatless Monday blogger, I received some samples of Gardein products. I was not paid for this post. The recipe and opinions expressed in this post are my own.
In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, peanut butter, and about 1 1/2 teaspoons cold water (or to desired saucy consistency). Set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the avocado oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add the frozen chick'n pieces and cook, turning often until crisp and golden, about 8 minutes. Toss with the warmed mandarin orange sauce to fully coat. (Hint: The chick'n can be prepared in advance at this point.) Warm chick'n in the cast iron skillet placed over indirect heat on a grill.
Top tortillas with the cole slaw mix and drizzle with the lime-peanut butter sauce. Top with the chick'n and drizzle with the gochujang sauce to taste. Sprinkle with the peanuts and cilantro. Serve with the grilled lime wedges.
Consider a high-flavored plant-based protein in lieu of chicken … at least on Meatless Monday!

What was the conflict between the short-eared and long-eared people of Easter Island?
When Roggeveen arrived, there were two tribes on the island. The first was the Ha-nau-aa-epe, which was distinct because of their long ears. They were tall, white-skinned with red hair and ca. two metres tall. The other tribe was the Ha-nau-mo-moko, which had short ears. Though it is assumed that the statues were created by the short-eared tribe, under the command of the long-eared people, portraying the latter, there was also a massacre of the long-eared people in 1760; apparently only three of them survived. The massacre is normally interpreted as a revolt of the short-eared people against their oppressive elite of the long ears.
http://www.philipcoppens.com/easterisle.html
Ron Fisher in his work Easter Island Brooding Sentinels of Stone, mentions as one explanation for the statues that "two classes of people, the-so-called Long Ears and Short Ears, lived on the island. The Short Ears were enslaved by the Long Ears, who forced the Short Ears to carve the Moai. After many generations and during a rebellion, the Short Ears surprised the Long Ears killing them all, which explains the abrupt end of the statue-carving.
